.Jaff Virus File is a malicious piece of software/computer virus that falls under the infamous Ransomware category. Viruses of this type are capable of blackmailing their victims by locking their personal data or their whole computer and demanding a ransom payment if the user wants to bring things back to normal. The method used by .Jaff Virus File in order to render the user's personal files inaccessible is what is known as encryption. Once the malicious program gets inside the PC, it encrypts the user's personal files and the only way to open them after that is to have a specific encryption key. Normally, once all targeted data has been locked by the Ransomware, a message is displayed on the PC screen which contains detailed instructions on exactly how to make the money transfer. In most cases, the ransom is demanded in the form of bitcoins which the user first needs to purchase and then send to the hacker. This allows the latter to remain fully anonymous. Because of that, seldom do hackers who use Ransomware get caught and brought to justice – something you should keep in mind. Here, we will attempt to acquaint our users with the most characteristic traits of .Jaff Virus File and Ransomware viruses in general so that they are able to provide their computers and files with better protection against this type of malicious software. As for those of you, who have already had their system invaded by .Jaff Virus File and their files locked by its encryption code, we have prepared a free Ransomware removal guide that you can find down below. Apart from instructions about how to get rid of the virus, the guide also has section with methods on how you can potentially restore your files. However, do note that the file decryption/restoration steps might not always work due to the fact that with each newer version, Ransomware viruses that use encryption are getting more and more advanced making it increasingly difficult to deal with them and .Jaff Virus File is one of the latest of its type.
Not all Ransomware viruses use the same method in order to blackmail their victims. For instance, there is a type of Ransomware that, instead of locking the user files one by one, directly blocks the access to the computer by covering its screen with a large banner or image, which prevents the user from interacting with their PC. Its a simple but effective method since the said banner/image would cover everything else – programs, files, folders, the Task Manager and the Start Menu would all get covered by the intrusive image which would remain there either until the ransom is paid or the user finds a way to get rid of the virus.
The other most widely-spread variation of Ransomware is the so-called cryptovirus, which is also what .Jaff Virus File is. Normally, this type is more advanced than the non-encrypting Ransomware. One of the major issues with cryptoviruses is the fact that removing the infection would not restore the access to files that have already been encrypted by the nasty malware. Decryption/file restoration is actually the most difficult part when it comes to handling a Ransomware infection. Leakware is yet another form of Ransomware which, instead of denying the user access to their data, threatens to upload the files on some illegal website where they'd be publicly available. Though this too could be extremely unpleasant, it should be said that Leakware attacks would only be effective if the PC's user actually has sensitive data stored on their hard-drive. This is also why instances of Leakware infections are not as common as attacks from cryptoviruses or non-encrypting Ransomware.
Usually, antivirus programs are effective when it comes to detecting most types of malware. However, when talking about Ransomware, this isn't really the case. If .Jaff Virus File gets inside your PC, even if you have a good security program, there's still a high chance that it will not be able to spot the virus. The reason for that has to do with the fact that the encryption process used by the malware is not actually something inherently malicious. Encryption is actually a popular data-protection technique and even if Ransomware uses it against it, most antivirus programs would not be triggered by it. In addition to that, most of the time, the symptoms caused by a Ransomware infection will be very subtle and difficult to notice. Some potential signs that can help you spot the virus are increased consumption of computer resources such as RAM, CPU time and hard-disk storage space. However, sometimes the encryption would happen way too quickly for the user to realistically have enough time to notice the virus and try to intercept it.
You must make sure that from now on your computer and files are well protected against any potential Ransomware attacks. For that reason, in this final paragraph we have prepared a couple of crucial tips and rules that will significantly increase the overall security of your system when applied correctly.
Try avoiding web addresses that look suspicious when surfing the internet. Each time you visit some sketchy and potentially illegal site you are exposing your computer to potential danger.
Do not trust and interact with the contents of new e-mails or social network messages that look like spam unless you are completely sure that they are safe.
Keep your PC's firewall on and your antivirus enabled and fully updated at all times. This could help you protect your machine against Trojan horses that can potentially be used as a backdoor into your PC for Ransomware.
Back up all important data that is stored on your computer on a separate device and if you think that your PC has been infected by Ransomware, do not try any last-minute backup updates by attaching the backup device to the PC since it could get infected as well.

The Salvation Army began its work in Canada in 1882, just fifteen years after Confederation, and quickly became a vital part of the spiritual and social service life of the country.
The first "open air meetings," or worship services, were held in Toronto and in London, Ontario, in 1882. These were led by British immigrants who had known the Army in their homeland. Official Salvation Army operations began in July of that year when Major Thomas Moore arrived from the U.S. headquarters to take charge. By then there were 11 "corps" or congregations in Ontario, and a year later Canada was declared an independent territory, responsible for its own governance within the worldwide organization.
From the beginning, the Army in Canada adopted founder William Booth's philosophy that there is little point preaching salvation to hungry people without addressing their physical needs. And so the concept of "soup, soap and salvation" took hold, later to be developed into the comprehensive social service programs The Salvation Army operates today, many of them in partnership with government.
William Booth was a dissident Methodist minister, who took his Wesleyan sensibilities and Christ's command to "feed my sheep" to their logical conclusion. Starting as The Christian Mission in the East End of London, England, in 1865, it was re-named The Salvation Army in 1878, to reflect the increasingly military structure the movement had adopted. It was this that came to Canada just four years later, and the Army's growth as a church and social service agency since then has paralleled Canada's development as a nation.
There was much opposition to the Army and its methods from civic politicians and other entrenched interests in the early days, and Salvaitonists were often beaten and jailed for their activities in the streets of Canada's cities and towns. Despite this, there was eventual acceptance of the movement as it demonstrated the social benefits that accrued from its activities. The men's social work began in 1890 with a Prison Gate Home in Toronto. The same year a children's shelter was opened. The first maternity home was opened in Saint John, N.B. in 1898, precursor to the Salvation Army Grace Hospitals. In 1901, The Salvation Army recommended to the federal government that a prisoner probation system be adopted, leading to Canada's first parole program. In 1908, salvage work (now called re-cycling) began in Toronto, leading to the well-known thrift stores. In 1911, the first Juvenile Detention Centre was established in Manitoba and turned over to the Army to operate. That same year a farm colony was established in Coombs, B.C.
The Salvation Army's status in Canada was entrenched in law in 1909 when parliament passed an Act giving the organization legal standing, its governance to be conducted by The Governing Council of The Salvation Army in Canada, a situation which continues to this day. In its early years the Canadian Territory was led primarily by British and American officers (clergy), but by 1903 a consolidated College for Officer Training was opened in Toronto, allowing Canadian Salvationists to take more leadership responsibility.
In 1914 the Army shared in the national tragedy of the sinking of The Empress of Ireland in the St. Lawrence. On board were more than 120 Salvationists, bound for an international congress in London. Most them, including the national commander and members of the Canadian Staff Band, were drowned. The Staff Band was not re-formed until 1969.
Canada's involvement in the First World War of 1914-1918 saw the appointment of the first Salvation Officer as a chaplain in the Canadian armed forces, and the donation of five motor ambulances to forces serving overseas. At the end of the war, military hostels were opened in Winnipeg, London, Kingston, Toronto, and other cities, for returning soldiers.
All of this demonstrates the unique ability of The Salvation Army to respond to urgent needs, the Halifax explosion and Winnipeg flood being examples. It also reflects the ingenuity, efficient use of resources and a genius for improvisation, which the organization's quasi-military structure fostered. It showed government that in most things the Army could get the job done with greater efficiency and at less cost than almost any other agency, and at the same time it forged a bond of trust between the people of Canada and the "Sally Ann." A trust that continues to this day.
Innovation in social services continued even as the organization matured: the first seniors' residence, or Eventide Home, was opened in Edmonton in 1926, and Grace Hospitals were opened in major cities across the country, as were homes for unmarried mothers.
The onset of the Second World War found the Army accompanying Canada's armed forces overseas not only as chaplains but as the operators of Maple Leaf Clubs, providing rest and relaxation for the troops. By the end of the war there were clubs in Britain, France, Germany, Belgium, Holland and India. They were mostly staffed by Salvation Army auxiliaries, some of them as young as twenty years old. They provided a taste of home, with Canadian cooking, mail forwarding and social activities, including dances and short term accommodation. On the home front at the end of the war, Salvationists at Canadian ports welcomed the "war brides" of Canadian servicemen.
Once more the development of The Salvation Army and the Canadian nation paralleled each other with the influx of new Canadians in the post-war years. As the ethnic and cultural makeup of the country changed, so did the demographics of the Army. The assumption that the Army's congregations would continue to be almost exclusively white and English-speaking gradually gave way to reflect the fact that Canada, particularly in its large cities, is one of the most cosmopolitan countries in the world. Canadian Salvationists now formally worship in multiple languages and provide services in others.
In the post-war years further social service innovations were introduced, including an anti-suicide bureau and victim witness assistance programs, the latter eventually being absorbed by the criminal justice system.
The Salvation Army Canada and Bermuda Territory has produced many outstanding leaders, not only for the domestic scene but also for international leadership. Five Canadian leaders have been elected General (International Leader): Clarence Wiseman in 1975, Arnold Brown in 1977, Bramwell Tillsley in 1993, Linda Bond in 2011 and Brian Peddle in 2018.
Today the Army in Canada has nearly 700 active officers (clergy), more than 16,000 soldiers (church members) and 30,000 adherents, that is, people who claim The Salvation Army as their church home. There are more than 300 corps (community churches), 125 service/social institutions and one university/college. In addition to more than 100,000 volunteers, 10,000 people are employed by The Salvation Army in the Canada and Bermuda Territory. Almost 30 Canadian Salvation Army officers and lay personnel also serve worldwide.

BREXIT: UK DELAYS IMPOSITION OF CUSTOMS IMPORT CONTROLS (AGAIN)
The UK Government has announced a change to the timetable for the introduction of full import controls for goods from the EU – and full customs declarations and controls will be introduced on 1 January 2022, although safety and security declarations will now not be required until 1 July 2022.
[One has to wait and see if there will be further delays, as there are doubts that the UK has the resources and arrangements in place, or will have in place, to even meet these target date – and it has been suggested by some commentators that the Government is merely "kicking the can down the road", to avoid further delays and other problems becoming evidence – particularly around Christmas 2021].
The news release from the Cabinet Office on 14 September claimed that the purpose of the delays was to give businesses more time to adjust to new processes and was due to the Covid pandemic having affected supply chains in the UK and across Europe.
[However, it appears from media reports that only the UK, and more particularly GB, that has been particularly affected – by a combination of Brexit delays and the effects of Brexit on immigration and the shortage of former workers, especially lorry drivers, from the EU, as well as the pandemic].
The requirements for pre-notification of Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) goods, which were due to be introduced on 1 October, will now be introduced on 1 January. New requirements for Export Health Certificates, which were also due to be introduced on 1 October, will now be delayed until 1 July 2022. Phytosanitary Certificates and physical checks on SPS goods at Border Control Posts, due to be introduced on 1 January, have been delayed until 1 July 2022. Safety and Security declarations on imports will also delayed from 1 January to 1 July 2022. However, it is said that full customs declarations and controls will be introduced on 1 January 2022, as previously announced.

Bolton Horwich is rated 5.0 out of 5 by 1.
Rated 5 out of 5 by JBrown from Renew wipers. and general check I asked for someone to check my windscreen wipers and following an inspection it was agreed to replace with new.He also checked my tyres, battery and all bulbs.This was very helpful as I had only just bought this vehicle from a relative and gave me confidence as to the general condition.


Congratulations on completing the challenge! Glad it was a success!
Whether you write them in advance or not, it's still a challenge. And half of the Challenge is meeting new bloggers and making friends. If you can do those two thing, that's winning the Challenge.
Hmm, interesting question you posed! This is the second year of participating in the A-Z Challenge and both years I completed my posts ahead of time. This year I did a theme (music) and it would've been impossible to leave that to the last minute. I spent all my days visiting and commenting on other blogs, I can't imagine having to compose posts too. But I do know some folks who did "wing it" -- that kind of challenge has to be a personal preference though. I think I'd lose my mind if I didn't have all my posts already prepped and scheduled to publish.
Hey, I like the song you posted here. Good stuff!
Congrats on a successful A-Z. And thanks for all your hard work in your minion duties!
Even though I didn't know a bunch of the artists you featured, you were once again an A to Z highlight for me.
It's a good question regarding whether a challenge is still a challenge if you can do all the legwork before the start line. I think it depends on the definitions of the challenge that you give yourself. For me, April was all about building my network. Meeting people. Consistently doing better than the year before... and in that respect, it worked perfectly.
Great reflections, and thank you for all of your effort!
A great challenge indeed! Loved every minute of it!
Regardless, if you post every day or do them ahead (like many of us) it's still a challenge. I found it hard to comment on the comments and do return visits. The thing I wish I had done more was to find new bloggers to connect with. Having posts done up in advance makes it a lot easier to check out the other players, so this will be a goal of mine next year. Congrats on finishing the A2Z race, Michael. I'll see you around the Blogosphere block!
Michael, Congrats! on finishing A to Z! Pre-posting is key. It allows you to spend time visiting new people and having fun with the event.
I too enjoyed your Music and Artists theme a lot..
I ended up downloading a few tracks that I had forgotten about ..
Symbiotic relationship, continuing it is a must!
Congratulations on completing the #AtoZChallenge! Maybe we boosted each other's morale? Yeah! You surely kept me motivated by commenting on blog posts as a daily ritual!
You earned a dedicated blog follower!
Just like last year and the year before, your blog was one of my favorites this challenge. You're one of the bloggers I connected with through this challenge, and I love that that connection lasted. You were an AWESOME Minion, and I seriously could not have made it through the challenge without your help. Thank you so much Michael!
Congrats on making it through the Challenge! Your blog was one of the gems I discovered this time. Great posts all month long.
I followed some of the same blogs you did during the challenge like Nick's and the movie smackdown; both were great themes!
Now on to next year!
Thanks for the mention Michael, I appreciate.
Thanks for the shout! I gave you one too, some of my favourite bands were here. I had the first half of my posts prewritten, didn't do any more during those two weeks, then winged the rest on the day, so I was half and half. I'm always halfway between a pantser and a planner! I think it's a challenge whichever way you cut it, with all the networking to do. Having fun is what counts.
It wasn't until I read some of these reflection posts that I discovered how many people pre-write their posts. I did plan my topics, but I changed several of them on the way through. I will have to think about pre-writing some; I tried to write several on each Sunday.
Your enthusiasm just soaks through every word of your Reflections post! So glad 2015 was a great year for you Michael!
Don't forget to snag the Survivor Badge for your sidebar at A to Z Challenge!
It was a trip, those who get it and those who freak out... the finish line is a great place.
We made it...Hope you had a great time, thank you for your Reflection!
Congratulations on completing the challenge! I didn't get to visit your blog during the crazy month of April, but I want to thank you for your help as minion. As participants, we have no idea of the amount of work that goes on behind the scenes so to speak, so your help was greatly appreciated. I'm popping over today from the Road Trip/Reflections linky.


Throughout the ages, human beings have found soon this dilemma: if another person has what I want, how do I get it? And as many children discover, grabbing it rudely does not work well, because even when it is successful, the consequences can be punitive. Thus, a modern alternative would be to use a send money with Verse app.
It is one of the already acknowledged and getting famous apps, programs downloaded and installed on smart phones to cover a number of tasks, most of them related to organization and communication. In this particular example, the concept arose from the problem occurred when several friends or relatives decide to go out together and the whole expenses will be kept equitable in the group.
Which is a fair and practical idea, but at the instant of carrying out, what is the best way to make it function? Maybe each of them pays his consumption, increasing the interval they will be waiting to go somewhere else, or perhaps an individual receives the debt of everybody, hoping that it will be settled in the future.
So whether it is made in cash or with cards, it is an operation that will always consume time, unless, thanks to technological advances, all is transferred to a specific person. In the moment it takes sending a text message, every single part of the amount to complete the total is moved with assurance that money will not disappear or be stolen.
So, you do not have to worry about counting or that the return is accurate, since with just a couple of clicks everything will be ready. And truly if it is only for the time savings it supposes, it is an option that should be known and study thoroughly to see if you can accept this new breakthrough in technology and comfort.


On November 18, the 3rd game of 18th Ryuoh Title Matches was ended with Ryuoh Watanabe's victory with 142 moves. The score is 3-0 after the game and another win will let Watanabe defend the title for the first time of his professional shogi career.
Here is the resignation diagram when Watanabe dropped his kNight on 7c. Challenger Kimura 7dan resigned to see it. At the diagram, if it is White's turn, mate exists such as Lx9e Kx9e +Rx8e(mate). But black has no effective defence for that. If he defends the pawn on 9e with R-9b+, then G-7e will be a decisive threatmating move with next Gx8e. If black defend it with N-7g, then mate exists such as Gx8f Gx8f B*8g K-9g P*9f K-8h +R-7h(mate). In this line, White will run out of all the pieces in hand. Around the 120 moves, I do not know which to win at all. In the end, Watanabe's approach to Kimura's king was turned out to be excellent.
The full game record is replayable at here(Java capable browser is required).
The 4th game will be held on November 29 and 30.


Prime Minister Narendra Modi today inaugurated and laid foundation stone for various development projects, worth thousands of crores of rupees, at Jammu and also at Leh in Ladakh. The Prime Minister is on a day-long visit to Jammu and Kashmir.
In Jammu, Mr Modi laid foundation stones for new All India Institute of Medical Sciences at Vijaypur and Samba, a 624 Megawatt Kiru Hydroelectric project and 850 Megawatt Ratle Hydro Electric project in Kishtwar.
Addressing a gathering at Vijaypur in Jammu, Mr Modi said, new power projects in the region will provide employment to thousands of youth. He said, setting up the AIIMS will provide quality healthcare to entire the region.
The Prime Minister said, Jammu and Kashmir had 500 MBBS seats in the past 70 years, but with the efforts made by the government, the seats will be doubled soon. He said, the Citizenship Amendment Bill has been brought to address the persecution faced by minorites in Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan. Mr Modi said, India will always stand by them.
The Prime Minister accused the previous governments of ignoring the necessities and sentiments of the country. He said, if they had paid attention on Kartarrpur corridor, the land of Guru Nanak Dev would have been a part of India. Mr Modi said, India will never forget the persecution suffered by the Kashmiri Pandits who had to leave their homes and hearths in Kashmir. He said, transit accommodation for them in Kashmir is being expanded soon.
The Prime Minister also laid foundation stone of 1.6 kilometres long double lane bridge over Chenab river at Sajwal Jourian in Akhnoor and a project on abatement of Devika and Tawi rivers under National River Conservation Plan. Mr Modi also laid foundation stone of Indian Institute of Mass Communication campus of Northern Regional Centre at Jammu and inaugurated an engineering institute at Janglote in Kathua.
In Leh, Mr Modi inaugurated the 9-megawatt Dah hydroelectric project. Located in Dah near village Datang, the project is a run-of-the-river scheme. He also dedicated to the nation the 220 KiloVolt Srinagar-Alusteng-Drass-Kargil-Leh transmission system.
The Prime Minister also launched University of Ladakh, the first-ever in the state's region. It will be a cluster university comprising degree colleges of Leh, Kargil, Nubra, Zanskar, Drass and Khalsi. He also laid foundation stone for a 480 crore rupee Terminal Building at Leh Airport.
The Prime Minister also inaugurated new tourist and trekking routes in Ladakh.
Speaking on the occasion, Mr Modi spoke about the farmer welfare scheme, Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi announced in the budget. He said, the benefits of the scheme will reach the farmers of the Leh-Ladakh region. The Prime Minister said, the farmers who have less than five acres of land will get money in their bank accounts directly every year.
Mr Modi also said, that the government has increased allocations to programmes for the welfare of Scheduled Tribes by 30 per cent and nearly 35 per cent budget has been allotted for the development of Dalits.
The Prime Minister also said, the culture of delays in work has been left behind and in the next five years, the delay in any kind of work will be extracted from the country.
Mr Modi added that once the Bilaspur-Manali-Leh rail line is completed, the distance from Delhi to Leh will be reduced. He said, it will also benefit the tourism sector. Mr Modi said, protected Area Permit's validity has been increased to 15 days, and now tourists will be able to enjoy their journey to Leh.
The Prime Minister also met locals in Leh.
Later in the day, in Srinagar, the Prime Minister will interact with students from across the country. He will also hold an interaction with the newly-elected Sarpanches.


Bronx, NY: The Chicago White Sox were in the Bronx for a three game series at Yankee stadium this week. The Yankees lost the series winning just one game of the three game series. The Yankees have not lost a series to the White Sox since 1982. One thing about this 2019 White Sox team is that they definite have "pop" in their bats and their pitching looked solid. However, when I looked closer at the team I noticed something else. I noticed many more Latinos than I am use to seeing in regular major league team.
When I walked into their locker room I was surprise to confirm what my eyes were seeing on the field, the White Sox do have many Latinos on their roster. In fact, they have more Latinos in their lineup than any other team in MLB. Of the 25-man roster, the White Sox have 15 Latino's. Now that is definitely a record.
What was more interesting was that none of the of the other Latino journalist knew that fact. It also appeared that few of the actual White Sox players knew that as well. Apparently, players are about one thing and one thing only, playing the game.
I was able to interview a few of the players and ask them about this finding and here are some of their remarks.
I spoke to Left Fielder, Leury Garcia from the Dominican Republic who said he was happy to know that there were 15 Latino players cause everyone knows that Latinos always like to get along with everyone. He stated how they were very happy with the environment in the clubhouse.
When I asked Venezuelan pitcher, José Ruiz how he felt playing with so many Latinos in the team? He said, "Real good thanks to God It feels great. We are one big family, Latino and American (Anglo); we try to share and are united on everything. I first noticed that there were many of us in Spring training where I knew some players and other's I did not, but we all tried to help each other.
One thing is clear, The Chicago White Sox, or Las Medias Blanca de Chicago will be a team that this Latino will be following a bit more.

K 9 Security – Photo of the Week
Five of American Border Patrol's seven German Shepherds guard the approach to Melissa's desk at ABP's headquarters. She calls them her "K 9 security." Nice to have when you're only 1,000 feet from the Mexican border.

Rubio not eligible to be Vice-President
Rubio, born 1971, father naturalized 1975.
He is not a natural born citizen.
True copy of naturalization papers in link:

Romney is eligible to be president?
Is Mitt Romney a natural-born citizen?
However, the available evidence shows that even under the strictest interpretation of Article 2, Section 1 of the Constitution, Romney is a natural-born citizen, according to Article 2, Section 1.
Judging by the Happersett decision and most interpretations of the eligibility clause, a president's parents would only have to be citizens of the U.S. at the time of his or her birth, not natural-born citizens.
Therefore, even if George W. Romney's birth in Mexico disqualified him from being a natural-born citizen, Mitt Romney could be a natural-born citizen, because his father was a citizen when his son was born.

The Immigration Tea Party
More evidence of the popularity of immigration law enforcement was produced in last week's election.
By Rick Oltman the Founder of The Immigration Tea Party
Arizona Governor Jan Brewer's crushing defeat of her opponent after signing and defending SB 1070 wasn't the only example.
In Kansas, attorney Kris Kobach was elected Secretary of State with 59% of the vote.
In Pennsylvania, Hazelton Mayor Lou Barletta won election to congress with 54.6%, it was his third attempt.

Comment from above article.
Thanks for the info… So many not on the 'front' don't realize what is happening down here. It's not about race or nationality, it's about LAW and the disrespect that this administration has for it and the citizens of the US.
Reported this morning that 25 states are onboard with similar laws to SB1070… just waiting to see outcome of Arizona's plight..
Keep up the fight!… and the administration will get the message from Arizona.
National Decline and the Story of the Roman Empire
April 28, 2012 byJerry Bowyer
So why didn't the dollar collapse? Why is it still the reserve currency of the world? Why don't we have hyperinflation? Why did gold stall and then fall last summer? Was there a food shortage? Nope. Widespread urban violence? Nope. Depression, stock market collapse, bond market collapse? Nope, nope and nope. Why not?
Because that's not how it works. Great nations do not suddenly lose reserve currency status or hyperinflate or collapse economically—not unless they lose a war or are destroyed by natural disasters. The archetypal decline and fall story is that of Rome. It was the eternal city, supposedly, but nevertheless its gates came crashing down and its cities were trodden over by rude barbarian feet. And all of this happened just as the great classical philosophers had warned it would.

The rise of the black Klan
Black supremacy is on the march. It is a poison that is spreading across our society, meeting little to no resistance. This must change. Otherwise, America will confront the real prospect of racial conflict.
The New Black Panthers are the tip of the spear. They champion black supremacy, hatred of whites, and militant Islam. They are the black version of the Ku Klux Klan — bigoted thugs who practice vigilantism and mob rule. They placed a $10,000 bounty for the capture of George Zimmerman — "dead or alive" — for the killing of Trayvon Martin, a 17-year-old black teenager. Their actions threaten the rule of law. Placing bounties on people's heads is an invitation to lawlessness and murder. It has no place in a civilized society.

Obama Ban on Youth Farm Chores Part of Larger Power Grab
Dredging up Dickensian horrors of child labor, the Obama administration has ordered the Labor Department to apply child labor laws to family farms. The new rules would make it illegal for children to perform a large number of labor tasks that have been performed by farm families for centuries. Traditionally, adults and children alike helped with planting and harvesting in the spring and fall, but the federal government is now determined not only to make this a historical footnote, but a criminal offense.

FIFTY YEAR OLD MANURE SPREADER – $1 (WASHINGTON, D.C.)
Fifty-year old manure spreader. Not sure of brand. Said to have been
produced in Kenya. Used for a few years in Indonesia before being
smuggled into the US via Hawaii. Of questionable pedigree. Does not
appear to have ever been worked very hard. Apparently it was pampered
by various owners over the years. It doesn't work very often, but
when it does it can really spread the manure and sling it for amazing
distances. I am hoping to retire this manure spreader next November.
But I really don't want it hanging around getting in the way. I would
prefer a foreign buyer that is willing to relocate this manure
spreader out of the country. I would be willing to trade this manure
spreader for a nicely framed copy of the United States Constitution.

The Islamization of Europe and Western civilization
Losing Europe
Soeren Kern of the Madrid-based Strategic Studies Group said "Fire and emergency workers . . . refuse to enter Malmo's ( a city in Sweden) mostly Muslim Rosengaard district without police escorts." And sensibly so: When firefighters attempted to extinguish a blaze at the city's main mosque, local Muslims pelted them with stones.
There is a straightforward reason why this has happened to Malmo, and why it is happening here in Britain, and also in Germany, the Netherlands, France, Italy and the numerous other parts of Europe where the cancerous tentacles of Islam have reached; The European Union has forced on its member states the same approach to their swelling Muslim populations that the Barak team is now trying to browbeat American cities and states into adopting. It is a suicide hypothesis, holding that the only threat to our security is "violent extremism."

Surrender, Genocide… or What?
A few months ago, I wrote "The Danish Civil War", a fictional scenario which served to structure a consideration of various issues relating to the rise of Islam in Europe and the likely consequences thereof. The essay finished with the conclusion that Islam constituted an existential threat to the survival of European civilization, and that Islam's influence on Europe therefore needed to be eliminated. It further concluded that, logically speaking, the various ways of achieving this goal could be broadly subdivided into three categories:
1) inducing Muslims to leave of their own free will,
2) mass deportations, and
3) genocide.

Immigration laws are not the problem. Enforcement, especially at the Federal level, is the problem. We have a legal route to citizenship that must be equally and fairly applied to all who wish to enter the USA. We can fix this problem if we have people in Washington with courage and leadership.
Our borders are incredibly porous. Physical obstacles and technology must be used to prevent the entry of people who have chosen to come to this country illegally. Article 4, Section 4 of the Constitution requires the Federal government to protect our borders. Our government has neglected border security to the point that it is now easier for a terrorist to enter America than it is for you or I to get on an airplane!

Yale Himalaya Initiative Addresses Environment, Livelihood and Culture
Yale Himalaya Initiative (YHI) with a focus on the themes of Environment, Livelihood and Culture brings together diverse disciplinary interests to consider critical questions in the Himalaya and beyond.

The Yale Himalaya Initiative brings together faculty, students, and professionals across Yale University whose work focuses on the Himalayan regions of Nepal, India, Bhutan, Pakistan, and China, as well as the Tibetan cultural areas that traverse the borders of all those states. We engage with the Himalaya as a significant transnational space for research and practice. Its location at the edges of the traditional area studies units of South, East, and Southeast Asia demands creative academic approaches.
Mark Turin on the Digital Himalaya Project and the Yale Himalaya Initiative
In this video produced for the Yale Himalaya Initiative, linguist and anthropologist Dr. Mark Turin outlines the mission, history and trajectory of the Yale Himalaya Initiative. A scholar of the Himalaya for more than twenty years, Turin discusses the importance of connecting scholarly resources with communities of origin across the Himalayan region, and reflects on how technology can support wider collaboration and knowledge sharing. Photos courtesy of Mark Turin. Published on Jun 14, 2013
We therefore aim to create the first comprehensive, interdisciplinary University-led initiative in North America that explores the Himalaya as a transregional whole, while recognizing its ecological, social, and political diversity.
Looking down from China's Tibetan Autonomous Region to the border with Nepal: Photograph by Sara ShneidermanFocusing broadly on the themes of environment, livelihoods, and culture, we support the development of teaching and scholarship on topics related to the Himalayan region by drawing upon the combined intellectual resources of members across the Yale community. We encourage the widest possible interdisciplinary participation, in collaboration with scholars, practitioners, and communities in the Himalayan region itself.
The Yale Himalaya Initiative will develop innovative research agendas and methodologies that address historical and contemporary issues of local, regional, and global relevance.
The Initiative's scope spans the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, and professional disciplines.
Zhechen Monastery drum: Photograph by Andrew QuintmanIt draws upon the expertise of faculty members in departments of the Arts and Sciences (Anthropology, History, History of Art, Religious Studies), Yale's professional schools (Forestry and Environmental Studies, Law, Management, Medical), and other University centers including the MacMillan Center for International and Area Studies, and the Global Health Initiative of the Jackson Institute for Global Affairs.
The Initiative builds upon existing research projects and strong disciplinary networks to promote broader collaborative efforts at Yale, while also developing lasting partnerships with research institutions, government agencies and NGOs throughout the region.
Mark Turin is Program Director of the Yale Himalaya Initiative.

These themes bring together our diverse disciplinary interests to consider critical questions in the Himalaya and beyond. Focusing our attention on the interconnections between the natural and social worlds in the Himalaya, historically as well as in the present, these themes also point towards issues of broad concern for the regionally integrated study of environmental, economic, and social transformation.
They are starting points for our multi-faceted inquiry and collaborations, which we expect to lead towards a wide array of projects that will take us far beyond their limits to conceptualize both scholarly and applied problems in new ways.
WWF asks of the Himalayan region, "Who lives here?" And, responds: "Stretching almost 2,500km from east to west, the Himalayas is home to millions of people and hundreds of unique species. In the Eastern Himalayas alone there are some 10,000 types of plant, 750 species of bird and 300 species of mammal - many of them found nowhere else on the planet. Not to mention the region's iconic, yet threatened species, including the: Bengal tiger, Asian elephant, greater one-horned rhino, red panda, snow leopard, black-necked crane, Gangetic dolphin...
Indian tiger (Panthera tigris tigris) or Bengal tiger: The Bengal tiger is found primarily in India with smaller populations in Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, China and Burma. It is the most numerous of all tiger sub-species with around 1,850 left in the wild. The creation of tiger reserves in the 1970s helped to stabilise numbers but poaching in recent years inside the reserves has once again put the Bengal tiger at risk.

"It is also a region of fascinating cultural and spiritual heritage, where millions of people from diverse cultures and religions, live alongside these unique species."

The Himalaya are the highest mountains in the world, with great biodiversity and ecological variation. There is no single modality of land use in the Himalaya; rather, some areas experience heavy forest use and development, others have seen the creation of protected areas and conservation initiatives, and still more support small-scale agriculture and agro-pastoral systems. Patterns of land use have changed over time in relation to political and environmental transformation.

Currently, the Himalaya is a source of ecosystem services for several countries in the region, yet is particularly vulnerable to the effects of global climate change. Many religious traditions in the region value mountains, rivers, rocks, and other environmental features as sites of divine power, so the natural world plays a key role in shaping worldviews and cultural practices. All of these dynamics present opportunities for challenging but rewarding research, particularly when carried out in consultation and collaboration with local communities and organizations.
Sir Peter Crane on the Yale Himalaya Initiative
In this video produced for the Yale Himalaya Initiative, Dean of the School of Forestry & Environmental Studies, Sir Peter Crane, reflects on the Yale Himalaya Initiative, and on the importance of understanding the region through a truly interdisciplinary perspective. As a member of the YHI Steering Committee, Dean Crane hopes to work with others across the University to encourage productive research on environments, livelihoods and culture in the Himalayan region and engage F&ES alumni in a region where our School has a long history of collaboration and interaction. Published on June 14, 2013
Himalayan people rely upon on a combination of agrarian, pastoral, and wage labor to create diverse economic strategies. In an area with limited arable land and complex social hierarchies, livelihood choices are constrained by both environmental and cultural factors.
Buckwheat in Sangdak Village: Photograph by Sam CowanDecisions about how to use environmental and cultural resources are in turn shaped by these economic choices. In many areas animal husbandry forms the backbone of agrarian aspects of the economy, with various forms of herding, pastoralism and transhumance found across the region. In addition to domesticated animals, wildlife remains an important component of life through hunting, its impact on agriculture and its religious or ritual role in agrarian life.
Despite the popular image of the Himalaya as an isolated Shangri-La, cross-border as well as rural-urban migration for the purposes of trade, wage labor, and pilgrimage has long been an important feature of life. Such mobility brings Himalayan people into contact with a wide range of cultural, political, religious, economic, and environmental attitudes, which they bring home along with the remittances that play a key role in transforming local economies. Rapid urbanization in metropolitan areas like Kathmandu, Gangtok, and Thimphu has important environmental, cultural, and economic consequences that can only be fully understood from an interdisciplinary perspective.
Sienna Craig on Tibetan Medicine
In this video produced for the Yale Himalaya Initiative, Dr. Sienna Craig (Associate Professor of Anthropology at Dartmouth College) discusses the importance, breadth and adaptability of Tibetan Medicine in the Himalaya.The photographs in this video are generously provided by Sienna Craig and Macduff Everton. Published on March 18, 2013
The Himalayan region is home to a remarkable array of ethnic and linguistic groups, and serves as a seat for several major religions, including Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam, as well as a variety of local indigenous beliefs and practices. For well over a thousand years, such traditions in the region have generated important forms of textual and cultural production.
Literary collections in Tibetan, Sanskrit, and Newar serve as primary canons for the study of religious doctrines and practice.
Together with an extensive archive of Nepali, Hindi, and Lepcha texts, they also provide rich resources for studying the social, cultural, economic, and environmental history of the region. Oral traditions in many more Himalayan languages further express the breadth and depth of indigenous knowledge.
Tankas, also known as thangkas, are hanging scrolls or fabric temple banners that consist of a painted: picture panels (called mélong in Tibetan, which means 'mirror'), usually depicting buddhas, mandalas, or great practitioners, which are sewn into or bordered by a textile mountings. Tankas are intended to serve as records of, and guides for, contemplative experiences and visualizations. From the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library, Yale UniversityThe Himalaya are also the seat of some of the world's richest visual cultures and artistic traditions. As the source of several major rivers, and the site of numerous sacred mountains and shrines, pilgrimage forms a central aspect of Himalayan religious life cutting across modern geo-political boundaries.
The long history of transregional mobility in the area—and its attendant flow of ideas, practices, and goods—has resulted in a complex and fluid cultural composition, but one currently encapsulated within several discrete modern nation-states. Competing interests around these borders have made the Himalaya a site of intense geo-political tensions, as well as protracted civil and local conflicts. Research that explores both historical and contemporary cultural transformations in the region will generate new knowledge of local experiences in the Himalaya, as well as their relationships to broader global dynamics

Blue is the color of life, Mavra had said.
As they arrived in the Karis system, Jehen watched the steady blue glow at the planet's curve. Space shaded from lightless black, the color of Nothing near absolute zero, to the shade still called midnight by old tradition, to purplish-blue, then flared into unbearably bright ultramarine. The edge was lost in a blaze of blue-white at the horizon where the sunlight of Karis caught it.
As they moved in closer, that light showed floating layers of cloud, the atmospheric system that not only supported life but made it burgeon. Those great spirals were made of the tops of the legendary cloud-towers of Karis.
As the Ship bore them ever closer to their destination, Vlada Ship's-Heart showed them the picture through the full spectrum, zoomed in to show electric and gamma-ray discharge into space from the mighty storm-whorls over the True Ocean of Karis.
All of the names they had for blue, all of them came from the Original World.
From Part II, in which Jehen and her siblings are sent to the starship academy.
Oh my, the word pictures you've painted. I feel like I'm right there. Good work!
Lovely! You've given us a visual that's amazing, done with "only" words…an Easter egg almost. Wonderful excerpt, as always.

Introduction TO GINSENG FOR MUSCLE DAMAGE
Panax Ginseng is one of the many plants belonging to the Panax family. The uses for this plant are extremely diverse. It's most commonly used in forms of herbal medicine from China.
There has been lots of research into the relation between muscle damage and Panax Ginseng. Muscle damage refers to strains or tears in muscle fibers in the body.
Download our Complete Guide to Panax Ginseng Research
When this happens, people can be left in a lot of pain. It's found that there are some links between those who purchase Panax Ginseng and muscle damage. More specifically, research claims that it can lead to a reduction in muscle damage and speed up recovery time. The following studies help to back up this claim:
Ginseng & Muscle Damage Research
Study 1: Effects Of Panax Ginseng Supplementation on Muscle Damage In Humans
The University of Hong Kong carried out research looking into ginseng. They conducted some lab experiments to see what effects it had on the human body. In particular, they were interested in how it affected the bodies immune system. As part of the study, they identified nine components of ginseng.
The research then consisted of treating various human immune cells with ginseng extracts. Out of the nine components, it was found that seven of them had anti-inflammatory effects. These seven components were shown to prevent the presence of the inflammatory gene within the human cells.
This study proved that there is a relation between ginseng and inflammation. More importantly, it can be used to reduce inflammation in the human body. A study by the Kyungpook National University in Korea looked at supplementation of Panax ginseng. The purpose of this study was to see how it affected muscle damage in humans. Eighteen college students were assigned to two different groups. One group took Panax ginseng extract; the other took a placebo.
All of the subjects performed high intensity running tasks. They ran uphill on a treadmill for 45 minutes, twice over. Between each run, they had a five-minute break for recovery. The group that took ginseng extract ingested it with water three times a day for seven days before performing the task.
They also took in for four days after the task. The other group ingested a placebo on the same schedule. After the tests had been run, the results proved conclusive. The group that ingested Panax ginseng had reduced muscle damage compared to the other group. Furthermore, it showed they had improvements in insulin sensitivity as well.
Study 2: Protective Effects Of Panax Ginseng On Muscle Injury And Inflammation After Eccentric Exercise
What this study shows us is that people can benefit from supplementing this plant extract before and after exercise. It's proven to have a positive effect on recovery.
The second study is from the University of Leon in Spain. The Department of Physiology explored the protective effects of Panax ginseng.
They tested two different extracts of this plant to see what they could find. A crude extract and standardized one were used. It's important to note that this study was carried out on a rat, and not a human. The rats were subjected to intense exercise on a treadmill, with each of them given an extract. What the results showed was that Panax ginseng was effective in reducing injuries caused by muscle contractions.
This research shows us that Panax ginseng is a good way of preventing injuries. It can be taken before exercise to reduce your chances of muscle strains or tears.
Can Panax Ginseng Reduce Muscle Damage?
After looking at various studies, it's clear that there's a direct link between this plant and muscle damage. All the research shows that Panax ginseng can reduce muscle damage and help prevent injuries. This makes it an ideal supplement for athletes or people taking part in physical activity. Anyone that does regular, high intensity, exercise can benefit from taking Panax ginseng.
In particular, professional athletes will benefit the most. It presents a legal way to speed up recovery, something that is vital in top-level sports. It's suggested that Panax ginseng is best for athletes that require quick recovery. The best example of this is tennis players that need to play almost every day throughout the year. Without a proper recovery supplement, they're susceptible to muscle damage and injuries.
Runners can also benefit from this as they're doing lots of intense exercises. Running every day can take its toll on the body. By adding Panax ginseng to your supplement list, you'll see improvements in recovery time. It will greatly reduce the risk of getting minor muscle strains and tears. Similarly, this can help increase your endurance too. By limiting your chances of muscle damage, your body can run for longer. You can go through more muscle contractions without worrying about injuries.
This plant is available in various forms for people to ingest. Athletes that use this will either use the dried root or a supplement tablet. The dried root can be mixed in with water and drank up to three times per day. There is a capsule form of Panax ginseng that is perhaps most widely used by athletes. It's far more convenient to carry around, and can be taken with water like any other tablet. It's suggested you take this capsule two times a day, preferably in the morning and afternoon for maximum benefits.
What the Doctor Recommends
How to know when to seek medical help?
Muscle strain, muscle pull, or even a muscle tear refers to damage to a muscle or its attaching tendons. Muscle damage can be in the form of tearing (part or all) of the muscle fibers and the tendons attached to the muscle. The tearing of the muscle can also damage small blood vessels, causing local bleeding, or bruising, and pain caused by irritation of the nerve endings in the area.
Symptoms of muscle strain include:
Swelling, bruising, or redness due to the injury
Pain at rest
Pain when the specific muscle or the joint in relation to that muscle is used
Weakness of the muscle or tendons
Inability to use the muscle at all
If you have a significant muscle injury (or if home remedies bring no relief in 24 hours), call your doctor.
If you hear a "popping" sound with the injury, cannot walk, or there is significant swelling, pain, fever, or open cuts, you should be examined in a hospital's emergency department.
Muscle Strain Treatment - Self-Care at Home
The amount of swelling or local bleeding into the muscle (from torn blood vessels) can best be managed early by applying ice packs and maintaining the strained muscle in a stretched position. Heat can be applied when the swelling has lessened. However, the early application of heat can increase swelling and pain.
Note: Ice or heat should not be applied to bare skin. Always use a protective covering such as a towel between the ice or heat and the skin.
Take nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) such as naproxen or ibuprofen to reduce pain and improve your ability to move around.
Protection, rest, ice, compression, and elevation (known as the PRICE formula) can help the affected muscle. Here's how: First, remove all constrictive clothing, including jewelry, in the area of muscle strain. Then:
Protect the strained muscle from further injury.
Rest the strained muscle. Avoid the activities that caused the strain and other activities that are painful.
Ice the muscle area (20 minutes every hour while awake). Ice is a very effective anti-inflammatory and pain-reliever. Small ice packs, such as packages of frozen vegetables or water frozen in foam coffee cups, applied to the area may help decrease inflammation.
Compression can be gently applied with an Ace or other elastic bandage, which can both provide support and decrease swelling. Do not wrap tightly.
Elevate the injured area to decrease swelling

A day first envisioned by Ann Jarvis to help mend the divisions of families brought on by the American Civil War and deeply rooted in anti-war and temperance.
The holiday first proclaimed by the legislature of the state of West Virginia in 1910 and followed quickly by other states. The US Congress adopted the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day on 8 May 1914 and President Woodrow Wilson issued a proclamation on 9 May 1914 — ninety-six years ago today.
There have been numerous events celebrating Mother's Day before and since — but each individual celebrates the core of this day by remembering and celebrating their mother.


Nikon recently issued Firmware updates for the D3100, D3200, D5100 and D5200. This update was supposed to only improve support for the new larger capacity EN EL-14a battery when used in these cameras. In fact, the update also blocks all third party batteries and third party grips, even when the third party grip is fitted with genuine Nikon batteries. I suggest that you may wish to avoid upgrading the firmware on these cameras (or perhaps the others as well) if you use or intend to use third party batteries and grips. I think in the long run this will prove to be a commercial misjudgement by Nikon, system users don't enjoy underhand tactics which dictate the purchase of vastly overpriced Nikon accessories. I am sure that battery suppliers will reverse engineer a solution in due course just as Sigma has had to do for their lenses on the D5300 and Df. As a Nikon user I'm saddened by this Fortress Nikon mentality, I'm not aware of similar nonsenses for Canon System users. I have not updated my cameras.
Thank you for the warning. I have used the firmware updates for the Pentax K10D and it vastly improved the camera giving more user control and same with Casio EX-Z600 where after it could use larger SD cards so without your warning I would have likely done a firmware update if offered.


TAMPA, Fla. — U.S. Special Operations Command is launching a new effort to tackle drone and robotics technology hurdles rapidly, the same way it experiments with other capability problem sets through its SOFWERX model.
SOFWERX — which resides in a downtown Tampa warehouse — is an environment designed to allow industry, academia and individuals to interface in an unclassified setting where ideas and technology can converge in an experimental and collaborative way.
The Strategic Capabilities Office and USSOCOM recognized that the SOFWERX model — that brings diverse communities together, "from hackers to makers" — would work well when it comes to tackling some of the most challenging robotics and autonomous problem sets, James "Hondo" Geurts, the acquisition executive for Special Operations Forces Acquisitions, Technology and Logistics, told Defense News in an interview at the Special Operations Forces Industry Conference on Tuesday.
While Geurts is still working on a name that reflects the plan to focus not just on unmanned aircraft systems but robotics as a whole, it is being called "DroneWerx" for now.
USSOCOM is embarking on the effort immediately and expects to be up and running in less than 90 days from now, Geurts said.
The focus will initially look at three lines of operations, Geurts said. One of those is how to achieve functional swarming, another line of effort will examine what is needed in a swarm such as sensors or weapons and the third line is how swarms might be employed.
"SOCOM's direct linkage with our operators gives us the unique ability to rapidly leverage this commercial technology in new and important ways for our operators downrange," he said.
DroneWerx would also look to learn from and employ commercial drone technology, artificial intelligence, machine learning, among other capabilities such as survivability against threats, Geurts said during a speech at the show.
DroneWerx, he added, is about experimenting, "not about writing a [request for proposals] and 10 years from now selecting a contractor to build a SOCOM drone. It's how do we work together and build scalable platforms."
The new effort comes at a time when adversaries are rapidly advancing drone and robotic capability.
"The threat is really changing, this explosion of commercial technology, of super-empowered commercial technology, of each individual technology path on an accelerated schedule," Geurts said. "When you start stacking accelerations on top of each other, pretty soon you've got autonomous swarms of drones with facial recognition attacking you on the battlefield and so how do you get out in front of that?"
And now even adversaries considered to previously lack any technical superiority whatsoever are showing growing savvy when it comes to adopting easy-to-get commercial technology and employing it on the battlefield.
USSOCOM Commander Gen. Raymond Thomas told conference goers Tuesday that the Islamic State group militants used commercially available drones armed with 40mm weapons strapped to them against U.S. and coalition forces fighting in Mosul just six months ago, which caused U.S. forces to scramble to quickly come back with a full array of capabilities to counter the threat.
And while the problem appears to be addressed in the fight in Mosul for now, Thomas said, "I would not go to sleep on the enemy."
Geurts added, USSOCOM continues to try to build capacity and capability to rapidly get after those types of problems and SOFWERX and DroneWerx is a way to come up with creative solutions quickly.


I sold the rifle I was using this powder for loads. Don't have as much space as my last place so I'm just doing an early spring cleaning.
I'd like to get $50 for both, I would prefer selling them together.
I'm willing to meet within a reasonable distance of NOLA.

Avatars are used to quickly identify a customer's properties including: studies, drafts, highlight reels, etc.
Avatars show the initials of an individual. There are two background colors, $interface-white and $interface-midnight.
When a user sees their initials, it instills a sense of ownership for the corresponding section. Eventually, we'd like to make this a profile picture.

Big radiation leak from sunk Russian submarine
Researchers said that samples taken from the wreck of the Komsomolets showed high levels of radioactive caesiumNORWEGIAN INSTITUTE OF MARINE RESEARCH/EPA
A Russian nuclear submarine that sank off Norway with its reactor and two plutonium-tipped torpedoes is leaking radiation 800,000 times higher than normal levels in the sea but is not a danger to life, researchers have said.
The K-278 Komsomolets went down on April 7, 1989, after a fire on board, killing 42 of the crew. The wreckage and its payload sank to 1,680m below the surface of the Norwegian Sea ten miles off Bear Island.
Norway's Institute of Marine Research said that samples taken this week showed high levels of radioactive caesium around the K-278 wreck's reactor ventilation ducts, with recordings of 800Bq (becquerels) compared with normal levels of about 0.001Bq. The readings were taken by a remote vehicle, which also found significant damage…
