Mixed pack including pit bull, Doberman, GSD killed Deborah Onsurez
January 3, 2018 By Merritt Clifton
(Beth Clifton collage)
Surveillance cameras identified dogs involved in multi-dog mauling
MODESTO, California––Stanislaus County Sheriff's Deartment and Modesto Animal Control personnel on January 3, 2018 announced they had recovered seven dogs and six puppies from near the location where Deborah L. Onsurez, 56, of Modesto, was found dead on December 28, 2017.
"Using photos of the dogs taken by surveillance cameras on nearby businesses, animal control officers located five of them on December 30," reported Erin Tracy of the Modesto Bee. "One dog was found dead on the side of the road and another had been injured, both believed to have been hit by cars, said Stanislaus Animal Services Agency executive director Annette Patton.
Four of the dogs impounded from the pack who killed Deborah Onsurez. (Beth Clifton collage)
Mixes of five breeds involved
"The captured dogs were of different mixed breeds," Tracy continued, "including Doberman, German shepherd, Queensland heeler, Labrador and pit bull. The puppies appear to be German shepherd mixes, although one looks more like a pit bull."
The surviving adult dogs will be euthanized as unadoptable, Patton told media, while the puppies are to be offered for adoption beginning on January 5, 2017.
Stanislaus Animal Services Agency supervisor Connie Hooker with impounded puppies found near scene of Deborah Onsurez's death.
Onsurez, the record eighth American killed by dogs during the month of December 2017, appears to have died as little noticed as she lived.
Advised the Stanislaus County Sheriff's Department, "On 12-28-2017 at about 7:50 a.m., deputies and emergency services personnel were dispatched to a 911 call of an unresponsive person in the 500 block of Crows Landing Road," where Onsurez was found "in the driveway of a residence," in a neighborhood consisting chiefly of three automotive wrecking yards, a pallet yard, a tire dealership, a couple of used car lots, a nut-packing warehouse, and several run-down trailer parks, wedged between railroad tracks and the Golden State Highway.
Butler's Camp murder
Satellite photos show no evident current residences in the 500 block of Crows Landing Road, though some structures now housing businesses were probably built as homes.
The 500 block of Crows Landing Road, however, meets South 7th Street at Butler's Camp, also known as Sunrise Village. This was the scene of the locally notorious January 1989 drug-related murder of Kenneth Lawton Stewart. Dennis Harold Lawley received the death penalty for allegedly hiring the Stewart killing, but died from heart disease in 2012; confessed triggerman Brian Seabourn received a life sentence; and a third suspect, Steven Curtis Mendonca, was sent to a prison for mentally ill offenders after pleading guilty to second-degree murder.
"Pronounced deceased at the scene"
There were no known witnesses to Onsurez's death. Almost no information was available about her in the first week after her death. She appears to have had a husband, Miguel Ruiz Onsurez, 59. She may have been a grandmother. She had apparently lived quietly in several other California cities. But she died violently indeed.
"Onsurez had severe injuries to her body, and she was pronounced deceased at the scene," the Stanislaus County Sheriff's Department said.
"Detectives were called out to assist with the investigation. The preliminary investigation led detectives to believe the decedent was killed by stray dogs," the advisory said.
Let outside, then whistled back?
At the early morning hour when Onsurez appears to have been attacked, owned dogs might have been let outside by someone to urinate and defecate, and then been whistled back inside by an owner who may or may not have been aware that the dogs had attacked someone. But the surveillance camera video indicated that the dogs were an unowned pack, possibly fed by neighbors, who had been running at large in the area for weeks, months, or even years.
Loose dogs photographed several years ago crossing Crows Landing Road at Hatch Road, about a mile from where Deborah Onsurez was killed.
(Facebook photo)
"My sister was mauled by the same dogs"
The area is known for dangerous dogs running at large.
Posted Modesto resident Heather Gutierrez to Facebook in a discussion of Onsurez's death, "I drive down Crows Landing every single day and there are ALWAYS dogs running loose."
Agreed another Modesto resident, Bernie De Rego, "Animal control is never out in this area. They don't ever drive by to check. There are so many strays. If you call animal control, it takes forever to reach someone. Then they never come. So even if someone called about a stray being loose, this would have happened."
Emma Mae Colvin, shown with husband Eric Colvin, on December 7, 2017 became the record-setting 50th dog attack death in the U.S. in 2017.
The most alarming comment came from Ceres resident Yesenia McClain. "My sister was mauled by the same dogs Tuesday night," McClain posted, meaning two days before Onsurez was killed. "She said it happened by a car dealership and a house near the 500 block of Crows Landing. A couple of guys helped get the dogs off, but left her there and didn't call for help. She got bit on her boob, back, stomach, and legs."
55th death by dog attack in 2017
As well as being the record 8th human killed by dogs in the U.S. in December 2017, and the 10th killed since November 24, 2017, Onsurez was the also record 56th person killed by dog attack in the U.S. in 2017, of whom 38, another record, are known to have been killed by pit bulls or packs including pit bulls.
ANIMALS 24-7, continuously logging dog attack deaths and disfigurements by breed since 1982, will wait another several days to post what we believe to be the 2017 "final" totals, to be sure of including attacks occurring late in the last week of the year that may not be reported until several days into 2018.
Even at that, the numbers of dog attack deaths, especially deaths attributed to specific breeds, may rise later in 2018 as result of late-arriving information. In 2017, for instance, three dog attacks initially listed in 2016 as having been by dogs of unidentified breed were subsequently attributed as result of police forensic work to specific pit bulls.
Annual totals rise in future years
The numbers of dog attack disfigurements logged for any given year also tend to rise during the next several years, mostly as result of lawsuits brought by victims whose lawyers had advised them against disclosing information while their cases were before the courts.
While ANIMALS 24-7 cannot as yet provide the data we expect to provisionally post as "final," we can confirm that 2017 brought a record number of pit bull attacks on children, as well as a record number of fatalities, and that the records for numbers of pit bulls involved in attacks, adults injured, and total disfiguring injuries all may be exceeded if the totals for the last week of December 2017 are as high as were the totals for several of the preceding weeks.
Dog attacks on other animals
ANIMALS 24-7 has also for many years been continuously logging dog attack deaths and disfigurements inflicted on animals by breed, a category of dog attack violence that is notoriously underreported. The underreporting is partly because of a widespread lack of confidence among animal owners that attacks on pets and livestock will be properly investigated and prosecuted.
Since 2014 ANIMALS 24-7 has produced annual estimates of the numbers of animals killed in dog attacks, by species of the victim animal and by breed of the attacking dogs, where known, projected from our logged data using a combination of demographic factors in a manner similar to how public health agencies estimate cases of underreported infectious diseases.
Merritt & Beth Clifton
As this is a very time-consuming task, our estimated 2017 totals of animals killed by dogs will probably not be posted until mid-to-late January 2018.

JanWindsong says
The dog in your photo is a German shepard. Full breed. The dog disappearing behind the lightpole looks to have the same height and leg structure as the fully revealed dog. Not a pitbull. Neither dog.
Merritt Clifton says
Our caption specified only "loose dogs." Whether the dogs in a photo taken several years ago, a mile from the scene of Deborah Onsurez's death, were German shepherds, pit bulls, or the Hound of the Baskervilles & Cerberus, guardian of Hades, is beside the point (made by many residents of the Crows Landing Road neighborhood) that dogs, who appear to be owned and fed, are frequently left to run at large there. Which dogs, of what breed, killed Onsurez will be determined, we hope, by the ongoing law enforcement investigation. Meanwhile, the zeal of pit bull advocates to defend pit bulls when as yet no breed has been identified is most telling. "Methinks thou doth protest too much."
A. St-Laurent says
I think this is what the PR wonks call "getting in front of the story," or, what the rest of us call pre-emptive obfuscating. No one said it was pit bulls, and even if they did, no one knows what a pit bull is, unless it's featured in a story about a hero dog, and even if that's exposed as a fabrication, it doesn't matter because it, it, it…wasn't pit bulls. Because there's no such thing.
Are we quite sure Franz Kafka didn't invent pit bulls?
Jill Campbell says
As always, I feel for you, bringing us the information, being criticized by the "pit-bull lobby"! As those folks live in denial, the rest of us must fear for the lives of our cats and dogs, AND our own! Would that their tremendous sympathy for dangerous breeds be transferred to those animals that truly need it!

Early Football Laws
Early Incidents
Articles on the history of Lynn Football Club tell you that prior to 1914 King's Lynn Football Club was known as Lynn Town. Now that might be the case – but then again this photo from 1908 suggests something different, perhaps what the club was known as, and what it wanted to be called were two different things. Equally "Linnet" writing in the Eastern Football News in 1922 still referred to the club as Lynn Town as did Lynn News match reports in the 1950's .
Under the letter K is Lynn half back Joe Dines – the only Lynn player to have a slate plaque to mark the house where he was born. Joseph Dines was the youngest of four sons of Frank and Josephine Dines of 4 Whitefriars Terrace. His early football was with Lynn All Saints and then Lynn United before being "poached" by Lynn Town. He started in Lynn Reserves and then went on to make his first team debut on 13 February 1904 against Peterborough Loco in the Dereham Charity Cup.
He then became a Lynn regular, taking part in Lynn's FA Cup encounter with Aston Villa in 1906 and receiving his county colours that season. He was also in the Norfolk team that won the Southern Counties Championship in 1908 and made appearances for Norwich Reserves and Woolwich Arsenal Reserves. He trained as a teacher in Peterborough and returned to Lynn – becoming an assistant master at St Margaret's School in the Millfleet
He took a teaching job at Highlands School, Ilford in 1910 by which time he had already started on an International career that was to lead to 24 caps with England's amateurs and had played for Queen's Park Rangers. At the time Ilford were a renowned amateur team playing, ironically, at Lynn Road, Ilford.
It was in the 1912 Stockholm Olympics that Joe Dines made three appearances in the Great Britain & Northern Ireland team as they retained the gold medal won in 1908.
Resisting attempts to persuade him to become professional, he appeared occasionally for clubs such as Walhamstow Avenue, Millwall and even one appearance for Liverpool when they visited Chelsea.
He is also reported as still making the occasional appearance for Lynn as late as the 1913-14 season.
He made 149 appearances for Lynn – scoring 28 goals. One of his brothers also made a brief appearance for Lynn – in that match Joe lined up with the opposition – Peterborough College.
Joe volunteered to join the army in November 1915 rising to the rank of second lieutenant in the King's Liverpool Regiment in June 1918. Often known as "The Smiling Footballer", Joe was killed by machine gun fire on 27 September 1918.

Promoted feature: Maintaining an upwards trajectory
Wazdan is among the fastest-growing European slot development studios
EGR Intel: Wazdan now operates in 16 regulated markets on top of its MGA licence, releasing 12 top-shelf titles annually and hiring over 150 people. What's the secret sauce to your growth?
Michal Imiolek (MI): There has been a clear strategic decision to focus on geographical expansion in regulated markets, which has allowed us to thrive. With certification to supply games in 16 jurisdictions, our products are enjoyed by players in regulated markets all over the globe.
Our dedicated compliance and legal teams operate at the highest level, allowing us to seamlessly enter new markets thanks to the intense work that goes on behind the scenes, – Greece being our most recent example.
The comprehensive level of attention to detail provided by these teams enables us to outline a clear roadmap of progression, as we look to bring exciting gaming opportunities to players in regulated markets all over the globe.
With a new title released each month, we're able to focus on the quality of design and our math models to stand out in a crowded marketplace.
However, what allows us to achieve our goals and hit new heights is our dedicated team. Founded by a group of genuinely enthusiastic, committed professionals, Wazdan has a sterling history to draw upon. Even to this day, having a true passion for games remains vital to our recruitment process. We aim to create an environment where people love to work, bringing unique ideas to life, and it's something we see every day. It is a place that inspires innovation and excitement, and this comes through in our products.
EGR Intel: What were the most significant milestones in your journey so far?
MI: Before releasing our first online titles, we had spent significant time perfecting our legal and development processes, so we knew that once we pushed the button, we would have a clear path to success. By choosing not to rush at the start, we were able to scale up our processes, which allows us to remain operational and successful to this day.
Receiving our MGA licence was another huge early landmark for us, swiftly followed by the UKGC licence. This paved the way for us to earn more licences and certifications, which serve as a real testament to the strength of our compliance teams.
The introduction of our trademarked Volatility LevelsTM is another element that has pushed us to increase in popularity. The feature allows players to switch between three differing levels of volatility, which to this day remains our distinctive feature, increasing the numbers of unique users that play our games. Technically, we're producing three separate game mechanics for each new title!
From a more contemporary perspective, entering New Jersey is a milestone of significant importance, marking our strategic objective to grow our presence in North America. Additional licences and certifications are underway, with plans to enter Michigan, Pennsylvania and West Virginia soon.
EGR Intel: What about the challenges?
MI: It is no secret that last year was a challenge for all businesses due to the mitigating circumstances. Casinos now have a higher demand than ever as they look to retain players, so new, exciting content is a must. This places pressure on studios to continue to deliver and is something we strive to do repeatedly.
The regulatory frameworks naturally differ from location to location, so ensuring new features meet market restrictions is a crucial pressure on the team. However, player protection is a key tenet of our stance on game development, and we will never compromise on that.
As is the case with so many companies in the industry, gaining a cut-through in this space has its challenges. With a growing number of suppliers and limited operators in regulated territories, competing for eyeballs is a huge priority for many. We have tried to overcome this with our wildly customisable elements – our Unique Wazdan Features and our Wazdan Special Features. These allow players to adjust our games to their needs. We create diverse content, from classic titles to innovative video slots, that appeals to all types of users. We believe there's always room for innovation, but without losing sight on keeping products customer-oriented, easy to play, understandable and engaging.
EGR Intel: What are your brand ambitions for the next year?
MI: Our ambition is to maintain our upward trajectory and doing it all while enjoying ourselves! We want to keep growing our international presence and enter new markets in a timely fashion, hand-in-hand with our operator partners.
We are incredibly proud of our workplace. We want to remain an attractive place to work by offering an environment that fosters enthusiasm and attracts the best talent in the industry.
Ultimately, we want to continue to create amazing games for players worldwide. We want to bring true innovation to the forefront of our portfolio in the form of exciting features and sound math models. It is a time of great opportunity for us, and we want to hit new heights through the strength of our team and our products.
Michal Imiolek is chief executive officer at Wazdan, responsible for the growth, development and performance in the global igaming market. He supports the Wazdan team across all business areas, oversees company operations and pays particular attention to ensuring that all Wazdan's clients receive the product and services they need to please their gamers and achieve success. Imiolek is passionate about product innovation.

Importance and Roles of Decomposers
The organisms that occupy the decomposer level of a biome are essential to life on Earth. They break down dead plant and animal matter so the nutrients in them are recycled back into the ecosystem to be used again.
Fungi are the main decomposers in many ecosystems, particularly in forests. One of their main functions is to help release nitrogen and phosphorous from dead decaying matter. They do this through a series of specialized proteins and enzymes in their cell walls and hyphae (root-like filaments). Fungi are particularly suited to penetrating large pieces of decaying matter like wood with their hyphae and breaking it down with lignin-digesting enzymes. Bacteria are also key organisms at the decomposer level.
There are other organisms in nature such as earthworms, some insects, sea cucumbers and woodlice that also break down decaying material, but they need to ingest it first unlike fungi that use chemical and biological processes. These organisms are called detritivores.
Fungi as decomposer
Organisms in this level of the food chain provide nutrients for the producers (plants) who in turn are eaten by the consumers in the next level who are then eaten by tertiary consumers. Fungi release enzymes that break down dead organic matter and release it into the soil while earthworms excrete nutrient-rich waste that adds more vitality to the soil. The tunneling action of earthworms also helps to break up and aerate the soil.
Soil bacteria such as Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas fluorescens are extensively involved at the decomposer level as well. They are critical for the early stages of decomposition before fungi and earthworms take over. Bacteria not only feed on dead leaves and weeds but they also fix nitrogen in the soil so it is not lost to the air or water (see below).
Decomposers are involved in virtually all of the nutrient cycles on the planet. The plants in the consumer level rely on decomposers to break down dead organic material to release the nutrients and elements like carbon, oxygen and phosphorus back into the soil. This along with energy from the sun powers the process of photosynthesis in plants. When organisms in the consumer level eat the producers, they extract the energy from the food and excrete waste that goes back into the decomposers food chain. This is the constant process of ingesting, excreting and recycling that goes on in an ecosystem.
Decomposer bacteria are responsible for fixing nitrogen in the soil, meaning they transform nitrogen into a form that can be used by other organisms in the food chain. Specifically, the bacteria take atmospheric nitrogen and turn it into molecules such as ammonia, nitrate and nitrite which can be used by plants. In some plants like legumes, the bacterium Rizobium lives in nodules on the roots of the plants in a symbiotic relationship. In turn for giving them a place to live, the bacteria return the favor by fixing nitrogen for the plants to use.
The image above shows nitrogen-fixing nodules on the roots of a legume plant.
Decomposers are like the housekeepers of an ecosystem. Without them, dead plants and animals would keep piling up with the nutrients the soil needs trapped inside. Decomposers clean up the dead material by processing it and returning the nutrients to the soil for the producers. If the decomposer community is damaged or dies, the whole biogeochemical cycle of an ecosystem is affected. Should this happen on a larger scale, the entire planet would be in peril.

Since I've covered other makes of trains, someone asked me how to sell Lionel trains. So I thought I would give similar advice on selling Lionel trains. Lionel is an iconic, legendary part of Americana, so there will always be some market for its products.
That said, don't expect to get rich selling off your Lionel trains. But if you keep your expectations realistic, you'll find an eager buyer, or ideally, at least two interested buyers so you'll realize a good price at auction.
I have a Lionel 2034 that had a bent cab I fixed, but it ran poorly too. It would run, but only in super slow-mo, and that was when it would run at all. If I was really patient, sometimes I could get it to run a little after a few minutes, but it had minimal pulling power even then. So I took a shot at Lionel 2034 locomotive repair. It was successful.
The motor needed some maintenance, but it didn't need any parts. Here's how I fixed it in less than an hour.

Camille Raquin é uma personagem fictícia do romance Thérèse Raquin, criada por Émile Zola, e é notável por ser a personagem que mostra os limites da animalização do homem exposta pelo naturalismo. O escritor naturalista utilizou Camille para demonstrar que o darwinismo social presente por Thérèse pode ser tão forte que o indivíduo pratica atos que vão contra os direitos humanos.

Camille, na obra, é o marido de Thérèse Raquin, que é morto por ela após ser seduzida por Laurent LeClaire e procurar desejos sexuais em outros homens. Sua aparição é apenas de mostrar ao leitor da época que a sociedade pode provocar em uma pessoa atitudes que prejudicam fatalmente outra.

The Most Searched-For Celebrity Homes 2021
Sometimes we all need a bit of fresh inspiration for our home interiors. And there's often no better place to look for inspo than the homes of your favourite Hollywood star or TV legend.
But, which celebrity house is the British public most curious about? Swyft has investigated search data to compile a list of the most searched-for celebrity homes in 2021.
Holly Willoughby - 9,900 searches
Tom Cruise - 9,900 searches
Kim Kardashian - 8,100 searches
Kylie Jenner - 6,600 searches
Oprah Winfrey - 6,600 searches
Will Smith - 4,400 searches
John Travolta - 4,400 searches
Kendall Jenner - 4,400 searches
Ariana Grande - 4,400 searches
Luisa Zissman - 4,400 searches
Stacey Solomon - 4,400 searches
Justin Bieber - 3,600 searches
Why is the Nation So Obsessed With Holly Willoughby's Home?
Searches for 'Holly Willoughby's home' started to increase in February 2021 and spiked in March - reaching 18.1k searches that month. Holly's home recently became a hot topic when plans for an extension at her £3million pad allegedly caused rows with her neighbours.
While ITV's darling and co-host of This Morning is a huge source of fashion inspiration, her home designs are a bit of a mystery as she has never done a home tour or revealed any of the rooms in her house entirely.
But, there are lots of articles across the web that try and piece together various Instagram posts and stories Holly has taken in her home to get the best possible picture of her South West London pad. Over lockdown, she did participate in a few televised Zoom calls from home - which gave us all another sneak peek of her interiors and triggered viewers' curiosity over her home setup. It seems we're all just as intrigued as each other about Holly's fabulous home!
Occasionally we are blessed with some snaps inside the Willoughby home. On May 9th 2021, Holly shared a photo of her bath - but this was quickly removed after fans commented that they could see her reflection in the taps. On February 11th, Holly shared a rare photo that gave a glimpse of her bedroom dressing area on Instagram. And, from other Instagram posts, it has been deduced that Holly's lounge has parquet flooring and is furnished with a plush grey sofa and matching ottoman, wicker garden furniture and Emma Bridgewater polka-dot tableware. It looks like her house has a mostly neutral colour palette.
See a sneak peak of Holly's bathroom and dining table, taken from her personal Instagram page, below.

Tom Cruise's High-Profile House Sale Makes News
Hollywood film star Tom Cruise has a very impressive property portfolio including homes in Beverly Hills and Clearwater Florida (the headquarters of The Church of Scientology). But, recently, the press has been obsessed with the sale of one particular property…
In early May, Tom Cruise's $39.5million Colorado ranch with ex Katie Holmes fetched the full asking price 2 months after being put on sale. This high-profile sale explains the sudden spike in searches around Tom Cruise's home. Tom actually helped design much of the ranch himself and boasts a main house with 10,000 square feet of space. The house is famous for being the location of his last major interview with Oprah, a follow-up to their memorable 2005 talk during which Cruise jumped up and down on her couch while proclaiming his love for his then-wife Katie Holmes.
The ranch is where the actors spent much of their marriage together and shared the first photos of their daughter, Suri Cruise. The beautiful pictures of the ranch show its bleached cedar beams and floors, native stone ceilings and walls and Georgian windows.
@Businessinsider shared some pictures of the beautiful property- featured below.

Kim Kardashian's House Tour Sparks Conversation
Kim Kardashian's home, which she bought with Kanye West and still lives in currently according to reports (despite their recent divorce announcement) has sparked controversy ever since they revealed photos of it in 2019.
Together, the couple have an alleged portfolio of 12 properties in the States alone! The couple's infamous minimalist design has long been a source of controversy online, with social media users often commenting how 'empty' and un-lived in it looks. The couple originally bought the LA property for $20 million and through their renovations, it's now been reported by Kris Jenner to be worth an incredible $60 million.
Unsurprisingly, the whole house has a very neutral, mainly cream colour scheme - the only exception being North's pink butterfly room. And, the family also has a separate kitchen for their private chefs to cook in which resembles an actual restaurant setup! One thing that took many by surprise is the fact that their home has not one, not two but NINE fridges. Kim took to Instagram to explain the reasons behind this and what they are all used for. She also gave a pantry tour which showed her pantry/fridge to be in impeccable order, albeit slightly empty.
Despite the divorce, Kim Kardashian will not be moving out of the $60 million mansion the couple shared in Hidden Hills. "Kim plans on staying at the Hidden Hills house with the kids. This is their home and Kim doesn't want to move right now at least," a source tells PEOPLE.
See a sneak preview of Kim's minimalist-dream bathroom below...

With Kim Kardashian's excessive nine fridges, John Travolta's private runway and Oprah's outstanding 42-acre California property, our favourite celebrity homes definitely don't come cheap. Here's how much they are reported to be worth:

Being able to make precise selections is critical to Photoshop mastery. Selections are the cornerstone of targeted adjustments and composite images—and better selections always lead to better results. In this course, photographer and educator Tim Grey shows how to make selections based on a number of image qualities, such as shape, opacity, color, focus, and brightness, leveraging the tools in Photoshop CC. Dive into the Select menu commands and the Marquee, Lasso, Pen, and Magic Wand tools, and then learn how to "automate" selections with tools like Color Range, Focus Area, and Threshold. Finally, learn how to refine your selections with Expand and Contract, Smooth and Feather, Quick Mask mode, and other controls. These features come in handy when dealing with hard-to-select objects like hair, fuzzy edges, and color ranges. By the end of the course, you'll have the skills you need to select precise areas of an image—the first step in any advanced Photoshop workflow.
- Hi, I'm Tim Gray and I'd like to welcome you to Mastering Selections in Photoshop. In this course, I'm going to help you truly understand the tools and commands that are available for creating and fine tuning selections in Photoshop. Selections are the cornerstone of targeted adjustments and composite imaging within Photoshop. In short, selections enable you to identify specific areas of a photo so you can then perform a task that will only affect that area of the image.
Photographers often find the topic of selections in Photoshop to be confusing and they struggle to create accurate selections. In this course, I'm going to cut through the confusion and help you master the skills you need to create optimal selections. So let's get started.
How will selections be used?
Should all selections be perfect?

What is the Parliamentary Internship Programme?
Why the Parliamentary Internship Programme?
Apply to PIP
Meet the 2019-20 Interns
Meet our MPs
Backbench MPs from all official parties are eligible to host one of the ten Parliamentary Intern provided they are not serving as a minister in cabinet or as party leaders. The interns are paid for their ten-month internship by the Parliamentary Internship Programme.
The Canadian Political Science Association has managed the Programme in cooperation with the House of Commons since it was established with all-party support in 1969. To show our commitment to being a non-partisan internship, each intern must work for one MP in government and one MP in opposition during two separate allocation periods. Opposition MPs are allocated Parliamentary Interns based on their representation in the House.
Parliamentary Interns work closely with their MPs and their staff. They often assist with committee work – reviewing reports, meeting with advocates, drafting questions and assisting in pre-committee and committee meetings. They prepare questions and speeches, write editorials and press releases, and help draft Private Members Bills. MPs often invite interns to visit their constituencies, where they are called on assist with casework, public consultations and community meetings. All Members of Parliament representing official parties are eligible and encouraged to apply for support from a Parliamentary intern.
Following group interviews, each intern selects one MP in government and one in opposition, for whom they will work during two separate placements. In the current Parliament, there will be five interns with Liberal MPs, three with Conservative MPs, one with an NDP MP, and one with a BQ MP during each allocation period.
MPs 2019-2020
The Parliamentary Interns, the Parliamentary Internship Programme, and its stakeholders thank all the MPs who applied for interns this year and, most especially, those hosting interns in their offices.
During their first allocation period (November 26, 2019 – March 20, 2020), the allocations are:
William Amos, Pontiac (LPC)
hosting Madison Pearson
Stéphane Bergeron, Montarville (BQ)
hosting Christopher Coulson
Élisabeth Brière, Sherbrooke (LPC)
hosting Griffyn Chezenko
James Cumming, Edmonton Centre (CPC)
hosting Hadeel Aziz
Pam Damoff, Oakville North—Burlington (LPC)
hosting Robyn Otto
Earl Dreeshen, Red Deer—Mountain View (CPC)
hosting Shona Moreau
Andy Fillmore, Halifax (LPC)
hosting Enya Bouchard
Peter Julian, New Westminster—Burnaby (NDP)
hosting Rei Tanaka
Lloyd Longfield, Guelph (LPC)
hosting Caroline Woodward
Blake Richards, Banff — Airdrie (CPC)
hosting Myles Goodman-Vincent
The MPs hosting the interns during their second allocations (March 23 – June 30, 2020) will be announced in February.
"The Parliamentary Internship Programme is an exceptional program that offers a work-study experience for university graduates while at the same time providing Members of Parliament with the highest qualified assistants. These non-partisan interns participate fully in the parliamentary process and contribute to our Canadian democracy. I have been fortunate to have the opportunity to work with many of the interns during my time as a Member of Parliament and cannot stress how valuable an asset this program is to Members' offices."
James Bezan, MP
Selkirk-Interlake-Eastman
"The Parliamentary Internship Programme is a truly extraordinary initiative. I do not know who benefits more, the MP or intern; the interns experience a truly unique opportunity, while the MPs have the privilege of working with young men and women who will make a real contribution to their work. I have had the good fortune to work with many Parliamentary Interns over the past few years and I sincerely believe that this is one of the most positive experiences for me and my team. We have stayed in contact with the interns after their departure and it is always interesting to support them and follow their careers. I strongly recommend the program."
Hélène Laverdière, MP
Laurier-Ste Marie
"As a former Parliamentary Internship Programme intern from the class of 1994-95, I am personally familiar with the benefits and opportunities that this program gives young Canadians while working for Members of Parliament here in Ottawa. I have long been a supporter of PIP and since being elected in 2015, I've had the benefit of having 2 PIP interns work in my office. Both interns provided me with invaluable, professional and unmatched non-partisan research, writing and office support. The quality of the candidates who become PIP interns, selected through a highly competitive national process, means that only the "cream of the crop" are selected. This is evidenced by the work I've seen them perform in my office but also in the research projects they undertake and that I have been happy to support and promote. PIP was essential to my education and training, and allowing me to get where I am today and I would encourage all MPs to participate in this program and would encourage all young Canadians with an interest in Government to apply."

Our lives are touched by those who lived centuries ago, and we hope that our lives will mean something to people who won't be alive until centuries from now. It's a great "chain of being," someone once told me, and I think our job is to do the best we can to hold up our small segment of the chain. That's … one kind of politics — doing your utmost to keep that chain connected, unbroken. — Dorothy Day.
I have been touched with the images coming from Houston and southwest Texas, not as much by the devastation and water, but by the thousands of people who are risking their lives to save others. There seems to be a never-ending chain of beings dropping everything and coming to the aid of those regardless of race, creed, immigration status, or financial circumstances.
Heroes are ordinary people doing extraordinary acts of courage and mercy. There is an unending chain of them in Texas these days.
Texas is special. I especially loved the piece I saw on The Weather Channel this morning about "The Waco Navy".
Thank you Mary! I am amazed at the courage and outpouring of kindness that is going on. W.

Escape and Liberation, 1940-1945
Alfred John Evans
Captivating and exciting stories of RAF prisoners of war escaping from infamous hellholes such as Colditz Castle.
Dimensions : 9 X 6 inches
The gripping stories of RAF escapes and evasions as detailed in Escape and Liberation, 1940-45 illustrate some of the difficulties and problems facing the prisoners of war. In the first chapter, an attempt was made to compare the conditions and problems experienced by prisoners in the 1940 war with those met by prisoners in the First World War. With the exception of Von Werra's adventure, these stories were told to the author by the men themselves and prior to this book no other record existed of their experiences. Included are descriptions of the escapes of F./Lt. H. N. Fowler, Captain A. D. Taylor, Private Gordon Instone, Wing-Commander Basil Embry, F./Lt. W. P. F. Treacy and Pilot Officer B. J. A. Rennie. The second part of the book looks at 'The Liberation of Westertimke and Barth', 'Neu Brandenburg' and 'Neu Brandenburg Re-visited'. Escape and Liberation, 1940-45 chronicles these brave men who attempted the 'Home Run', the escape from German prisoner of war camps. The author, Alfred John Evans, fled from a German camp in the First World War after being shot down over the trenches. In turn, Evans inspired many prisoners, and he, in turn, took up his pen to narrate many of the famous escapes of the Second World War, including prisoners from the notorious Colditz Castle. Escape was the first problem, the second was to succeed in evasion

Jesus went out to a mountainside to pray, and spent the night praying to God. When morning came, he called his disciples to him and chose twelve of them, whom he also designated apostles (Luke 6:12-13, NIV).
Think of a time in which you desperately needed discernment and direction for a pending, important deadline. What did you do: fret, search the Scriptures, phone a friend, procrastinate, claim God's promises, toss a coin, acquiesce to someone else's opinion, follow your intuition, or several of the above? These obviously represent a continuum of wise through foolhardy responses, but if we are honest, many of us could say that at one time or another we have resorted to several of the above. Although we may utilize the above repertoire, Christ's main impetus for both decision-making and effectual service was prayer.
After several Sabbaths of Pharisee-provoking obedience to the Father during his time of active ministry, Christ needed to choose twelve apostles from his disciples. Luke 6:12 indicates that Christ prayed all night at the mountain before choosing the twelve and subsequently healing both those with diseases and those experiencing demonic attack. Notice that it does not mention that He slept the night before all this effective decision-making and ministering, but that He prayed all night long! His efforts were clearly efficacious as verse 19 states that the whole multitude sought to touch him, for power went out from Him and healed them all.
If God's sinless, submitted, begotten Son needed a nightlong prayer session for discernment, direction, rejuvenation, and empowerment, where does that leave us? I am not offering formulaic assertions here, but one can hardly miss the takeaway regarding the needfulness of consistent, deep, private prayer in addition to moment-by-moment communion with the Father. I have learned this increasingly in my thirty-five year walk with the Lord and especially with regard to supplication and intercession.
What about you? What do you need discernment or empowerment for? What are you facing currently? Whom is the Father calling you into private intercession for? How is your communion with this perfect, loving Dad who longs to fellowship with you, communicate to you, and hear from you? Is it something you hurriedly check off of your mental "To-Do list" each day or is it a perpetual lifeline akin to your need for oxygen and water to survive? When it feels as if maybe no one else has time for you or cares about what concerns you at any given moment, know that your compassionate Papa yearns to be the one to listen to you, to meet your need, and to lift your head (Psalm 3:3) like only He can!
Melissa Smith is the Women's Enrich Counselor at America's Keswick. She has the privilege and honor of ministering to the colony men's wives and girlfriends, the Barbara's Place women, and some women from the community who God brings to America's Keswick for help or care. She and Bill, her husband of 18 years, have four adopted children ages 17 to 24. Her fervent desire is to point women to Christ and His sufficiency, provision, and promises.

Lifestyle activities do not have to be planned. You can make small changes to make your day more physically active and improve your fitness.
Take 2 to 3 minute walking breaks at work a few times a day.
Put away the TV remote control and get up to change the channel.
Stand or walk, rather than sit, while talking on the phone.
Play with your family – kids, grandchildren, nieces and nephews, etc.
Walk to your coworker's office rather than use the phone or email.
Even a shopping trip can be considered exercise. It is a chance to walk and carry your bags, be they loaded with groceries or other goodies.
In addition, doing chores like lawn mowing, leaf raking, gardening, and housework can count as activity.
If you can do only a few or none of these activities, that's okay. Appreciate what you can do, even if you think it is a small amount. Doing any movement – even for a short time – can make you healthier. Remember, each activity you do is a step toward a more active lifestyle.
Keep your muscles from getting tight after doing other physical activities. You do not have to set aside a special time or place to stretch.
At home or at work, stand up, push your arms toward the ceiling, and stretch. Stretch slowly and only enough to feel tightness. You should never feel pain.
Hold each stretch, without bouncing, for about 30 seconds.
Important: Do not stretch cold muscles.
Yoga and tai chi are two types of stretching. They help you breathe deeply, relax, and get rid of stress.


QINGDAO, China, June 3 (UPI) -- Police in the Chinese city of Qingdao said Monday that they have arrested 16 Falun Gong practitioners who allegedly created fake torture pictures.
The arrests were made during a raid at a residence on May 2, when they allegedly found Falun Gong practitioners acting out torture scenes, China's Xinhua news agency reported.
Some of the suspects were made to look like victims, and others were acting as the ones carrying out acts of torture, police said. Other suspects were taking pictures, police allege.
Falun Gong is a spiritual practice followed in China.

24 Hours in a Row: Waiting for the Man
Mike Plante Tuesday, January 25th, 2011
Lou Reed performed at the Sundance House Sunday night, transforming the room into an amazing, instant club. Backed by keys, strings, and his own guitar, he sang about ecstasy, sacrifice, glue, and small towns. He commanded a presence in the room from his chair with ease. And when a pseudo-heckler started doing a famous hum-a-hum-a-hum-hum loudly, Reed asked him, "You wanna come up here and do that?" He didn't. After a long set, the crowd stomped and yelled for a full five minutes to bring on the encore of "Candy Says."

Todd Rohal's midnight film The Catechism Cataclysm is not only funny but straaaaaange, even tense towards the end. The audience had a great time, laughing and/or reeling with confusion. The story of a priest looking for a new start with an old friend came from Rohal's experiences when he worked at a theology school as a custodial and computer repairman and got to know a couple of priests, one of whom left the profession. He took artistic license after that, simply writing a crazy script and deciding it would all make it into the movie, no notes or outside influences allowed. While he was writing it he had a (miserable) job transferring digital media at an office that was next door to a performing arts complex. As he would write, intense cheering and screaming laughter would come through the walls. Rohal just got more and more jazzed. Each few pages elicited massive excitement from the building. Screams of yes! more! kept him going, the floor shaking with stomping fans with each joke or crazy scene he got down on paper. Rohal powered the unusual story into an unusual film. Pictured is the actor Koko Lanham, found by Rohal through a Craigslist ad in which he stipulated he was looking for "a big man." That's a spider haircut for the premiere.
And one more quote from Rutger Hauer in his Cinema Café with Roger Corman (which Jon Korn wrote about earlier). Both have a long history of working with young talent - Corman with his films, Hauer with his school The Rutger Hauer Filmfactory, which fosters filmmakers making a short film. Corman on his love of how film festivals support people who take chances: "Just go – we'll catch you."

Your ability to live the life according to your norms without any financial baggage is usually termed as a state of financial freedom. Rather than aiming for more money, it is financial freedom that we should all aim for. Here are the best five ways to gain this freedom.
On the way to financial freedom, it is important to reduce your expenses to only those that are purely necessary. Hence regular shopping, lunch or dinner in the nearby restaurant, throwing parties often, are all considered as unnecessary expenses since you end up saving nothing at all.
If you are too fearful to take risks and quit your job for a start up, try to utilize the money you have in a smarter way. Do thoughtful investments in shares or properties which can bring you money faster and with little effort, besides your regular salary at the end of the month.
If you are aiming for financial freedom and has a family, your spouse also needs to think likewise. As a team, you need to work out on your financial gains and expenses to reach towards financial freedom.
To curtain expenses and pay off your loans, a budget is the most essential key to financial freedom. It gives you a clear picture about the money which you need to spend and the money you can actually end up saving.
Financial freedom should be a goal that should be cultivated early in life and hence an attitude to save money and make proper investments at an early stage and at regular intervals is crucial.


Hey, I have a pretty simple question, the other day I found a website offering pre-designed logos, it's a bit cheaper and it seems I can keep the copyrights for it. Have you had any experience with this before?
What do you mean by pre-designed?
Do you mean a basic shape (template) that is then customised with for example the company name and company colours?
If so, they would be cheap because you will pretty much have the same logo as maybe 1000 other companies, would you want this for your business? Personally I would rather pay a fair price and have one bespoke that I know isn't a rip off of someone elses and used by many other businesses.
Never go cheap with logo design. It's not to be advised. A logo is a key part of any business, and as such shouldn't be done on the cheap.
Having a nice product/service you're proud of and using one of those sites is like having an amazingly expensive motorbike and buying a cheap lock (meaning it'll just end up a waste, thats either a good or very shite comparison). Basically don't do it, 99 times out of a hundred the brand will always be stronger than the product/service it offers so I'd take your time over it.
Pre designed is NOT the way to go, how can a pre-designed logo/identity incorporate the companies unique selling points, personality, individuality if that companies logo can be seen elsewhere being used by other companies only with a different straplines/colour etc.
BUT I think johnsonkyle25 is talking about logos that are designed by designers with no 'real' brief given, they are just designing for themselves and then these are sold to companies/people who are interested in using it for their new company.
For example, I'm a designer, I have a day free (i wish) and decide to work on an imaginary logo design, I give myself the brief that the company name is "soundjam" and its for a music recording studio. I then go ahead and develop the logo until I'm happy. I then sell this logo design and name to a company or individual who is interested and are starting a new music studio and require a new brand.
To be honest I have thought about doing some of this type of work but I just don't get the time or I'm working on other aspects of my business..
I see your points, it's not a good thing to go cheap on the logos, and the example about the bike is pretty funny, but I think dot design got me on what I was thinking. I think I couldn't rule it out entirely because let's face it, if you come up with a new business idea, it's very probable that someone else has already done it, or at least very similar, and therefore the publicity for it could have been conceived by a designer, what if you just happen to find the one that fits for you? (I haven't but there's a pretty big database there).
And also, I'm starting the business right now, so I need to squeeze the most out of every bucket, not everyone has the chance to spend 1000 bucks just to start with the corporate image.
A big thing to watch out for with these kind of companies is whether you are buying exclusive use of the logo. A lot of companies who sell things like logos and website templates just sell them over and over again to different customers. Even if they say they are exclusive you won't know unless you stumble across another company with a suspiciously familiar logo.
I see, well I found some guys who move the pre-designed logo to their portfolio of things done for customers when one of the pre-designed is sold, and removed from the for sale database, that's a pretty good warranty that yours is yours right?
Unless they assign you copyright in writing then yours is actually theirs, at least that is how I understand the UK law to be.
^ This much is true.
Yes they actually do, I'm just not very good with all the legal stuff, but they said they would give me all the papers for it.

Initiation (2021) Film Review – Pledges to Challenge Slasher Expectations
Posted on May 11, 2021 October 29, 2021 by Dustin Domingo
Combine the carnage of slasher films and socially relevant commentary, and you've got the recipe for a horror film that cuts deep, literally and figuratively. For this writer, Initiation does just that.
Directed by John Berardo, Initiation is a slasher flick first released within the festival circuit in 2020, then released for a wider audience in 2021. It is based on a 2013 short film titled Dembanger, which was originally going to be the title of the film as well. In it, members fraternity and a sorority become the targets of a mysterious killer after an incident at a party leaves someone traumatized.
WHAT DID I LIKE ABOUT THE FILM?
First of all, just having a new slasher film in this day and age is a blessing enough for me but I was pleasantly surprised to find that Initiation exceeded my expectations. It delivers on its promise of bloody kills while having a say on certain toxic campus cultures.
I liked that those complicit get called in an unbiased way, letting the camera play like a fly in the wall. Initiation does a great job at giving the audience pieces of the puzzle without a heavy hand. This allows viewers to ponder upon themselves and their companions about the pieces at play that keep such cultures prevalent. I know I'm being vague but I'd like to keep it that way to preserve certain reveals if you do decide to watch the film. The filmmakers time to set up the central conflict and its development, allowing this viewer to see the characters realistically as people before they're taken down by our killer.
They also do well in subverting expectations when it comes to slasher films. Refreshingly, the production places its male characters in compromising and vulnerable situations that are usually reserved for female characters in slasher movies.
Finally, I want to talk about the gore and the kills. While there wasn't a lot of variety in the murder methods featured, there's a sufficient amount of bloodshed done with a vicious and grounded attitude that delivers the desired impact. It's not excessively gory but it did enough to satiate the blood fiend in me.
WHAT DIDN'T I LIKE ABOUT THE FILM?
I was pretty much satisfied overall but I do want to point out some aspects that some viewers need to know. The film takes its time to set up the plot before the slashing takes place and it may turn off certain viewers hoping for bodies to drop from the get-go.
Initiation is currently out in limited theaters and digital platforms. More info can be found on the official website here.
OVERALL THOUGHTS
To me, Initiation is a worthy slasher that seamlessly injects social commentary within a slasher film plot without resorting to lecturing viewers. It instead opts to serve up bloody violence as expected in slasher films while also twisting audience expectation.

Commemorating its 150th anniversary in 2012, rangers will lead free guided hikes into the Fort Bowie National Historic Site. The hikes will focus on the chronology of events like the Bascom Affair and the Battle of Apache Pass. These events led to the Fort's establishment.
The distance from the trailhead parking lot to Fort Bowie's ruins is approximately 3 miles (round-trip). Visitors are encouraged to bring water, a snack or picnic lunch, a hiking stick, sun protection, and a camera. Layered clothing is advised as weather conditions this time of year are variable.
The hikes are scheduled to be led every other Sunday. The first hike was on Sunday, Jan. 15. Rangers tell us that the hikes have been very popular. Maybe they'll add more hikes if more people are interested.
Feb. 3 update: Due to the hike's popularity, rangers will lead hikes EVERY Sunday!
Meet the ranger at the Fort Bowie trailhead off Apache Pass Road. From Willcox, travel 22 miles south on State Route 186 to Apache Pass Road. Turn left on Apache Pass Road and travel eight miles along the dirt road to the trailhead parking lot. From Bowie, travel 14 miles south on Apache Pass Road to the trailhead parking lot. Apache Pass Road turns into a gravel road approximately 12 miles from Bowie.

The Year of Blue Water
By Indira Ganesan
The foreword to The Year of Blue Water by Yanyi is written by Carl Phillips, the poet and judge of this year's Yale Series of Younger Poets Prize. It is a celebratory and sensitive assessment of this quietly assertive, nuanced book. I suggest you skip it to savor after reading Yanyi's book. What I suggest is that you read the poems without knowing the plot, letting the poems build and fall in their natural rhythms. We begin with a dream:
"You're awake, then you are standing.
Then the last thing that you dreamed will unfold
its field of memory. What you touch will come
to life: a whole room sprung in the backwards words
of people untalking to you...."
This is language catching deliberately the way it feels to move through a dream, and how the dream reveals and unravels what is true in life. A poet wakes and writes it down, rearranging the words to reflect what has occurred, and initiates the reader into what will occur in the following pages as well. Life is ephemeral, filled with ghosts, and as Yanyi reminds us, and himself, "you are language, too." And language is changeable, in the way bodies and thoughts are changeable, mutable, and capable of stretch, accommodation, and resistance.
Yanyi has composed a book that alternates prose poems of memory, of reality, with small abstractions, as the poet ponders words other artists have said. A mediation that begins:
"at lunch my body didn't want food. It wanted
fries or peanut M & Ms; they were a dollar instead of two, the
price of a high school lunch. I saved money this way. I wasn't
sure what I was saving my body for...."
It is followed as if in academic translation on the next page by:
"Robin Coste Lewis describes beauty as a field of power. The
search for land, for possession, for domination, is all in service
of a search for pleasure."
The poems, like the body, are political, ripe for possession, abandonment, transformation. The transgender is addressed in parentheses, not as afterthought, necessarily, but as some alongside the heady quest for meaning. Community is key here, for Yanyi as any artist is aware that nothing is possible without the ideas, ballast, provided by friends, just as other voices, like that of dancer Agnes Martin, and poet Robert Hass, are read for meaning, as springboards.
"My research is a combination of advice column, comprehensive
Sex-ed websites for teens, and horoscopes. There is an entire
Stream of emotional knowledge regulated to the darker depths of
The Internet...I reread the definition of love: compassion, respect, accountability.
Strategies for your sexual self. What to know about an Aries...
Taking quiz after quiz, personality test after personality test,
trying to reach the person I wanted to be."
If this is not genius, of clarifying what it means to be immigrant, different, of wanting to belong, yet recognizing the ludicrous nature of such a quest, yet plunging ahead anyway, then I don't know what is. Read The Year of Blue Water. It is a slender wonder. It is a book that, as Carl Philips notes, acknowledges "a hope born of courage and generosity, out of which Yanyi has made a book of wondrous changes, art, a life."

He scored a goal in the game against China, becoming the only Somali player to score in two World Championships.

Hared immigrated with his family to Canada and lived there for more than 15 years.
