More people were arrested last year over pot than for murder, rape, aggravated assault and robbery – combined
By Christopher Ingraham, The Washington Post	No Comments
Posted on Sep 27, 2017 Sep 26, 2017
In 2016 more people were arrested for marijuana possession than for all crimes the FBI classifies as violent, according to 2016 crime data released by the agency on Monday.
Marijuana possession arrests edged up slightly in 2016, a year in which voters in four states approved recreational marijuana initiatives and voters in three others approved medical marijuana measures.
These figures should be regarded as estimates, because not all law enforcement agencies provide detailed arrest information to the FBI. But they do show that the annual number of marijuana arrests is down from their peak in the mid-2000s and stands at levels last seen in the mid 1990s. Marijuana use, particularly among adults, rose during this time.

Where marijuana is on the ballot Tuesday – and where it's most likely to win
Marijuana possession remains one of the single largest arrest categories in the United States, accounting for more than 5 percent of all arrests last year. More than one in 20 arrests involved a marijuana possession charge, amounting to more than one marijuana possession arrest every minute.
This article is roughly 500 words long. Assuming an average adult reading speed of around 250 words per minute, that means that in the time it takes you to finish this story, an average of two Americans will be arrested for marijuana possession.
Overall in 2016, roughly 1.5 million people were arrested for drug-related offenses, up slightly year-over-year. Advocates for a more public health-centered approach to drug use say numbers like these show the drug war never really went away.
"Criminalizing drug use has devastated families across the US, particularly in communities of color, and for no good reason," said Maria McFarland Sánchez Moreno, executive director of the Drug Policy Alliance, in a statement. "Far from helping people who are struggling with addiction, the threat of arrest often keeps them from accessing health services and increases the risk of overdose or other harms."
The question of what to do about drug use has become particularly urgent in recent years as deaths from opioid overdoses have skyrocketed. The Drug Policy Alliance points out that Portugal, where the personal possession and use of drugs was decriminalized in 2001, has one of the lowest drug overdose rates in western Europe.
Special report: Cannabis and the environment.
In the United States, on the other hand, most drug use remains criminalized. The current attorney general, Jeff Sessions, wants to crack down further on drug use. Among other things he's reinstated mandatory minimum sentences for certain drug offenses, recruited a drug war hard-liner to review current marijuana policy, and spoken out repeatedly against the current state-level trend toward marijuana legalization.
Many public health experts have called for illicit drug use to be decriminalized in the United States, arguing that many of the negative effects of the drug trade – crime, disease, over-incarceration – are a result of strict policies that leaves drug users nowhere to turn but the black market. This is particularly true for substances such as marijuana, whose effects at the individual and societal level are typically less harmful than even legal substances such as alcohol.
National polling shows support for recreational marijuana use hovering around 60 percent. Eight states plus the District of Columbia now allow recreational use of the drug. But the latest FBI numbers suggest that, at the national level at least, this hasn't yet led to significant changes to pot policing in other states.

Author update: Two new books by Prometheus-winning author Travis Corcoran (but they're not what you'd expect)
Note: The Prometheus blog periodically posts updates about authors who have been recognized over the years through the Prometheus Awards, especially to report recently published or upcoming books. Submissions of news and updates from authors, publishers or fans are welcome, and will be considered for publication. Here's the latest update on a relatively recent Prometheus winner:
Prometheus-winning author Travis J. I. Corcoran has been busy writing and publishing books, with more to come.
Sf novelist Travis Corcoran (Photo courtesy of author)
Corcoran is a two-time Prometheus winner for Best Novel in 2018 and 2019 for The Powers of the Earth and its sequel Causes of Separation. Both novels, part of Corcoran's Aristillus series, explore government threats to a working anarchs-capitalist colony, established on the Moon by a libertarian dissident who became wealth after discovering anti-gravity in the mid-21st century.
Since Corcoran's explicitly libertarian sf novels were published, his fans (including but far from limited to Libertarian Futurist Society members) have been eagerly awaiting publication of the next novel in that projected four-novel future history.
But as Corcoran explained in a recent email to the LFS, we're going to have to wait a while longer to actually read more in the Aristillus series, because the two massive books that Corcoran published in 2021 were actually long-planned non-fiction works.
Corcoran, who works for tech companies remotely while living with his wife and dogs on a 56-acre farm in New Hampshire, has strived for a long time to create what he calls "the perfect guide" for people who live in the city or suburbs and want to move to the country – as he did.
Escape the City: A How-To Homesteading Guide, which might well be of interest to some LFS members, achieves that goal.
"My two volume homesteading how-to encyclopedia… draws from my eight yearsof experience living on a farm, raising and butchering livestock, felling trees and heating with firewood, making maple syrup, storing hay, and planting gardens, orchards, and vineyards," Corcoran wrote in a recent email to the LFS.
Published in two volumes (Part I and 2), the "missing manual" is described on Amazon as offering "absolutely everything you need to know on thousands of topics that you never even realized existed."
Among them: starting garden seeds in a grow tent, planting a berry patch, arranging for firewood delivery, shopping for a used tractor, breeding sheep, installing solar electric power, making 10 gallons of hearty soup from a pig skeleton and fighting invasive species.
His books even include, as a bonus near the end, dozens of recipes for farm-to-table dishes, such as Maple Crème Brulee, Pork and Pumpkin Soup, Duck Leg Confit and even a Whole Pig Roast. (Sounds yummy.)
Corcoran explains that he wrote his Homesteading Guide books – despite the availability of many other books on farming, gardening and homesteading which he's read and owns – because he felt that all the other books lack sufficient breadth, have blind spots and don't include the itemized lists, step-by-step instructions or alternative choices for different budgets and enthusiasm levels that he made a point to include in his books.
"They forget that thousands of things aren't obvious to everyone," Corcoran writes.
Among them: The differences between straw and hay, sweet corn and feed corn, pastures versus fields, discing versus plowing versus rototilling, plus how to haul logs safely, how utilities differ from the suburbs to the countryside, etc.
All of that information, and more from Corcoran's eight years of experience as a farmer-homesteader, is packed into his two-volume set, which has sold more than 10,000 copies. (Apparently, there was a real need for his books – a gap in the marketplace that Corcoran's books have fulfilled.)
To pack all that information in, the first volume runs 653 pages and the second volume, 652 pages. Both books are available in hardback, paperback and Kindle e-books.
Corcoran, who posts occasional updates on his own Morlock Publishing blog, also recently shared with the LFS some exciting glimpses into some of the elements and plot threads that he is incorporating into the next two work-in-progress novels in his Aristillus series.
More about that in the next Prometheus blog, so stay tuned!
(Hey, don't most sf fans appreciate reading suspenseful cliff-hangers? Moreover, doesn't it seem these days that most novels and publications are part of a series?)
Meanwhile, to whet your appetite and refresh your memory about all the intriguing and imaginative elements that Corcoran sets up and juggles in his first two Aristillus novels – such as dogs with enhanced intelligence – read William H. Stoddard's combined Appreciation review-essay of Corcoran's Prometheus-winning novels The Powers of the Earth and Causes of Separation.

Make your own printable calcudoku puzzle. Calcudoku is a combination of an arithmetic and logic puzzle. The rules are the same as sudoku, but you get clues. Every 'cage', a group of cells printed with a thick border, has printed the result of arithmetic operation on all the numbers in the cage. With these clues the student have to complete the puzzle.
1. The numbers you can use are from 1 to 6 or from 1 to 9.
2. In each row and in each column each number can appear only once (just like in Sudoku).
3. Each "cage" (the blocks with the thick border) shows a result and an operation (addition: +, subtraction: -, multiplication: x, or division: /). The operation applied to the numbers in the cage should produce the result shown.
4. A number may be used more than once in the same cage, but not more than once in each row or column.
In case of subtraction or division, arrange the numbers from the cage from largest to smallest. If the outcome = 1- and the numbers in the cage are 1, 2, 4 then you need to arrange them into 4 - 2 - 1.
To create your printable calcudoku puzzle is extremely easy. First you slected the gridsize (6x6 or 9x9). Then select how many fields in the puzzle should be printed with the number. Finally you click on download the calcudoku puzzle. It will create a pdf file for you. This pdf file contains 2 pages, one page is the puzzle and the second page contains the answer sheet.
Every calcudoku puzzle is dynamically created. Therefor every puzzle is unique and you can download as many puzzle as you need.

Q: Word list sources I am looking for a source of nouns, adverbs, adjectives, and verbs in several languages.
I'd like the lists to already be split apart, and not have to go through the OED (and non-English equivalents) by hand re-creating said lists.
I don't really care about definitions, and I understand some words can be multiple parts of speech - that's fine - words like "many" could be a noun or adjective, and can appear in both lists.
Does anyone here know of such a source? If not, might someone be able to point me in the right direction?
I'm ok with the format being any of the following (or similar if folks have ideas):

*

*csv: <word>, noun (y/n), verb (y/n), adverb (y/n), adjective (y/n)

*plaintext files like "nouns", "verbs", etc

*a mysql table

*etc

A: I have used WordNet from Princeton University for some projects. This is a lexical database in English. Global WordNet is an extension of the project trying to do the same for all languages.
You might also be interested in related projects at http://wordnet.princeton.edu/wordnet/related-projects/

A: This may not help at all, I don't know. But MediaWiki has an api for listing all pages belonging to a certain category. You could try using it on Wiktionary.org.
Notes:

*

*Each query only returns 500 results. However, at the end, it also specifies a parameter to use in another query to get the next 500 results.

*It includes everything in the specified category, even other sub-categories.

*Results seem to be in alphabetical order, though everything starting with a capital letter comes before anything in lower case.

Examples:

*

*First 500 page titles in the English Wiktionary in the cateogry "English nouns"

*Continuing, using the parameter specified at the end of the previous query

*First 500 page titles in the simple English Wiktionary in the category "Nouns"

*Again, continuing using the parameter specified at the end of the previous query
Hope this helps, it's what I could come up with.

A: I will second @teknikqa's suggestion of wordnet, but I would suggest you check out their APIs;
STORYTIME:
I had an AI course that had a language analysis part; I used the wordnet's perl API's to automatically lookup the top three definition types, and classify the phrasing from that in near-realtime
END OF STORYTIME
There are API's out there for Lots of languages
FYI: The project got an A+

==Background==
[[Category: Cases]]
[[Category: Slavery]]
First page of the opinion Anderson v. Anderson, in Reports of Cases Argued and Adjudged in the Court of Appeals of Virginia, by Daniel Call. 2nd ed. (Richmond, VA: A. Minor, 1854).
In Anderson v. Anderson, Call Vol. II 163 (1799),[1] the Court determined whether the plaintiff's prenuptial agreement could protect her estate against her husband's creditors.
Jane Anderson's mother left her a small fortune in slaves. To protect her estate, Jane wanted to draft a prenuptial agreement before she married George Anderson. George Anderson told Jane that his brother could write the marriage contract and save her some money.Jane agreed and the contract was drafted, but due to George's negligence, never recorded. After Jane and George married, it was discovered that George had an enormous amount of debt. George's creditors, who were also his relatives, quickly took Jane's entire estate stating the prenup was insufficient and poorly drafted. Jane sued George and his creditors in the High Court of Chancery for the execution of the marriage contract to regain her estate.
The Court's Decision
On June 5th, 1794, Chancellor Wythe dismissed the case. Disagreeing with the decision, Jane Anderson sought to appeal, which required her to give two month's bond to the Court of Appeals. However, she failed to make bond. On August 26, 1794, Jane sought Wythe outside of court and, asked him to allow her to give bond, since she accidentally missed the deadline. Wythe allowed the request and Jane paid the bond. During the following September term, the Court of Chancery set aside Jane's ability to appeal until she could pay a second bond to the court by September 26th. This was due to a procedural rule limiting bonds to only one court term. Jane failed to pay the bond, but was permitted in March 1797 to give bond within two months on the condition that the Court of Appeals gave Wythe power to grant the appeal. The Court of Appeals ruled that Wythe ceased to have control of the case at the beginning of the September term. Referencing a statute, the Court of Appeals decreed that Wythe or any Court of Chancery could not use the powers of equity to override a statute, except in grievous cases. The Court went on to state that Wythe did not have the authority to request bond or how much bond was sufficient for Jane's case. Nevertheless, the Court determined that the appeal was properly granted in August 1794, and that the security was paid according to law. Turning to the merits of the case, the Court of Appeals noted a statute requiring that marriage settlements be recorded within eight months or it would be void. Although the Court noted the potential fraud in the case, it decreed that Jane failed to satisfy the statute and affirmed the ruling.

There's More Pro Wrestling Happening In Texas; Now At Borger Dome
Motivate Pro Wrestling via YouTube
Pro Wrestling in the Texas panhandle has a rich history. It's a history filled with legendary names. It's a history filled with tall tales and jaw dropping antics. The history of wrestling in the Texas panhandle just picked up another chapter.
You can now get wrestling thrills in the Borger Dome.
Say Hello To Motivate Pro Wrestling In Borger, TX
For those that just can't get enough of the action that takes place inside of the squared circle, you'll be happy to know about Motivate Pro Wrestling. Motivate Pro Wrestling is offering Texas sized thrills inside the Borger Dome.
I have to admit, I'm pretty excited by what I've seen so far.
You Want Personality? They've Got It At The Dome.
One of my favorite parts of pro wrestling is the personalities. Don't get me wrong, I love the slams and holds, the drama inside the ring as the combatants go toe-to-toe. The personalities, though, are what sells it for me.
There's nothing better than watching a wrestler call out another wrestler. Watching as a larger than life personality gets in front of a camera and lays it on the line strikes a nostalgic chord with me, and I can't get enough of it.
Motivate seems to have no shortage of big personalities to fill the Borger Dome with.
When To See Wrestling In The Texas Panhandle
The best way to keep up with what's happening at Motivate Pro Wrestling is to follow their social media. That's where you'll see flyers and videos featuring all of the wrestlers you can expect to see.
It seems like there is plenty of drama building since their Inception event, and some of it will be settled in the ring come Feb. 4.
I'm glad to see more wrestling in the panhandle. A good friend of mine trained with the Harts for a while, and when we talk about wrestling, the Texas panhandle always winds up being one of the focal points of our conversation.
Test Your Texas: How Many of These Jeopardy! Questions Can You Answer?
Jeopardy! as we know it has been on the air since 1984, but the show got its start way back 1964.
Over the decades, the writers have managed to keep coming up with challenging questions to test the intellectual might of America's best and brightest (and sometimes softball questions for celebrities).
Texas is a place packed with personality, culture, and history, and there've been hundreds of questions/answers about the Lone Star State. Let's take a look at a few recent ones, and keep an eye out because we'll add more soon to test your Texas trivia skills and challenge newcomers.
How many of these can you get right without Googling?

A Single Eye | GetAlongWithGod.comGetAlongWithGod | A blog about discovering a God worth knowing.
I want to share with you a little further on the genius of having a single eye. It is an amazing power for intimacy with our God.
Have you ever heard of having dove's eyes? I have been told that a dove's sight can only focus in one direction at a time, giving them singleness of vision or a single eye. Imagine not being distracted by that which is in the periphery! Undivided vision, an enviable trait for the Christian sojourner.
Well in Song of Songs 1:15, the Beloved states to the Shulamite, "Behold, you are fair, my love! Behold, you are fair! You have dove's eyes." He was attracted to and calling forth from her a level of undistracted devotion.
Jesus as our Beloved is drawn to our singleness of eye because this makes us a bride rather than just a believer. Only love will cause us to cast aside all that hinders our pursuit of God.
I have had a season of, what would seem to be, extreme distraction. But I wonder if it has more been a training of my eye? A muscle is strengthened through resistance. I believe God has been supplying ample opposition to make me hungry. My levels of desire have been stirred in the wake of an onslaught of interference.
Then I enter the Vatican and He leads me to experience a single eye. I walked through to experience one focus and one vision. It wasn't about the Vatican or the art but the attention on what He was on in that moment.
Now, I don't for one second believe that I will ever muster up some amazing honed focus on the Lord. I just won't, though I have tried. But what I can tell you is that Jesus lived with singleness of vision and He still wants to today. He wants me, a vessel for His focus and attention on the Father.
He was able to walk through this world focused on and doing the things He saw His Father do. Today He desires to do the same in me. I yield to His desire in this and look forward to His fulfillment.
You have captured my heart, my treasure, my bride. You hold it hostage with one glance of your eyes, with a single jewel of your necklace.

U.S. Poverty Weekly Update April 16, 2013
The first thing I did on that April 1st morning was at 9:15, I picked up my telephone and phoned my representative and my two senators and said 'Hey, guess what? Because of sequestration, I'm laid off. This is what I want you to do — I want you to protect low-income people.'

In April, we are working to ensure that the Earned Income Tax Credit and the Child Tax Credit are protected. Leaders of the tax-writing committees — House Ways and Means and Senate Finance — are meeting to discuss various ways to reform the tax code. This week, the Senate Finance Committee will be discussing tax provisions that concern families and education. The EITC and CTC will most certainly be part of the discussion. It's important that members of Congress weigh in with tax committee members urging them to strengthen and protect these vital tax credits for working families. Take action today — your voice could make the difference.
TAKE ACTION: Take two minutes and send an e-mail urging your members of Congress to protect the EITC and CTC. Tell your representatives and senators to weigh in with House Ways and Means Committee and Senate Finance Committee members and tell them to make the 2009 improvements to the EITC and CTC permanent and reject any attempt to cut eligibility or benefits for the credits. Use our online tax credit e-mail alert to send your message today. Be sure to personalize your e-mail by sharing your name, location, and a personal story (personal experience with this issue, why you care about it, etc.).
This could be an important week for the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and the Child Tax Credit (CTC). On Thursday, the powerful Senate Finance Committee, led by Chairman, Max Baucus (D-MT) and Ranking Member Orrin Hatch (R-UT), will meet to discuss ideas for tax reform. This week's meeting will focus on how the tax code impacts children, families, and education. Because the EITC and CTC lift more children and families out of poverty than any other federal programs, these credits will be part of the discussion. Unfortunately, some members of Congress would like nothing more than to cut or eliminate the EITC and CTC and will use this opportunity to move their agenda forward. We cannot let them be the only voices in this debate.
On Saturday, Sean Noble of the National Community Tax Coalition (NCTC) appeared on the April 2013 RESULTS National Conference Call. Sean provided us an excellent overview of what's at stake in these tax negotiations and why it is so important that you and your communities urge your members of Congress to protect these important, poverty-reduction tools. Sean reminded us that the recent extension of the 2009 improvements to the EITC and CTC in the fiscal cliff deal shielded 13.1 million low-income families from an average tax increase of $843. But there's more work to be done. These improvements were only extended for five years, while tax cuts for wealthier families were made permanent. In addition, the EITC, while a huge financial boost for families, is of little help to adults without children. To help protect and expand these credits, NCTC has created the "13 for '13" — thirteen important talking points about the importance of the EITC and CTC you can use with policy makers.
Make sure members of these committees get an earful from constituents and colleagues before, during, and after these discussions.
TAKE ACTION: Take ten minutes to take the April Action. The Senate Finance Committee is meeting THIS WEEK so if you can contact your senators before Thursday, please do. Write letters to senators and representatives urging them to talk to Senate Finance Committee Chair Max Baucus (D-MT) and Ranking Member Orrin Hatch (R-UT) and House Ways and Means Chair Dave Camp (R-MI-4) and Ranking Member Sander Levin (D-MI-9) about protecting and strengthening the EITC and CTC. Specifically, urge them to:
Make the 2009 EITC and CTC improvements permanent.
Reject any tax reform proposals that would cut eligibility or benefits for the EITC and CTC
The April Action and NCTC's tax credit 13 for '13 has all the information you need to make a powerful case. In addition to letters, make sure your senate point people for your group call the senate tax aides to make the case over the phone before Thursday's meeting. You can find the name of your senate tax aides on our Elected Officials page. If you would like help or coaching with making these calls or writing your letters, please contact the RESULTS U.S. Poverty staff for assistance.
We deeply thank Sean Noble for being on our call and giving us an excellent overview of the tax credits and how we can protect and expand them. Listen to all of Sean's presentation on a recording of Saturday's conference call and download the PowerPoint slides (pdf) from the call on the RESULTS Conference Call page.
Got Twenty Minutes? Be a Part of the End of Poverty through the Friends & Family Fundraising Campaign
Thank you to everyone who has participated in the RESULTS Friends & Family campaign this month. Your donations and the donations you raise are so important in our effort to end poverty around the world. RESULTS uses your donations to help leverage enormous resources that literally change lives. Imagine a little boy in Mississippi getting the healthy food he needs to grow up right because RESULTS volunteers worked tirelessly to increase SNAP benefits in 2008 and 2009. Or a single mom in Minnesota getting proper care for her asthmatic child because RESULTS volunteers helped protect and expand Medicaid in health reform. Or a working couple in Detroit being able to afford a better home for their children in a safer neighborhood because RESUTS volunteers helped expand and protect the EITC for low-income couples.
Your donations matter. And we appreciate all you do to support this important work.
TAKE ACTION: Take twenty minutes to keep up your fundraising work — or get started — with the RESULTS Friends & Family campaign. We are halfway through the campaign and we're excited to report that we are nearing the $10,000 mark. Congratulations to Marty White of Dallas and RESULTS staffer Lisa Marchal who have reached their fundraising goals in just two weeks! Keep going and help us can reach $35,000 by the end of April. If you're looking for creative ideas to participation and tips to make your efforts successful, here are some ideas to help:
Make your fundraiser real to your donors by asking for dollar amounts tied to poverty numbers. U.S. Poverty advocates can ask people to donate the amount a SNAP recipient would use to eat for a week (about $1.30 for each meal comes to about $17 per person).
Do you have an April birthday? If so, please consider making a fundraising page so that people can donate to RESULTS as a special gift to you and the world!
Follow up! Keep tweeting and writing Facebook posts with creative pictures. Also, a friendly reminder call is always the most personal and powerful reminder you can do.
Also, remember the F&F Campaign is also a great reminder to donate ourselves. If you have not made a contribution to RESULTS in 2013, donate this month and add your donation to our campaign success!
Please contact Cindy Levin at [email protected] for help starting your own fundraising campaign and promoting it. If you are participating by soliciting donations through the mail, be sure to send the checks you receive to: Cynthia Stancil, RESULTS, 1730 Rhode Island Ave, Ste 400, Washington, DC 20036.
We're excited to announce that the Early Bird Registration fee for the RESULTS International Conference has been extended to April 30! Now you have two more weeks to register for the conference at the $165 Early Bird rate. If that weren't enough reason to register, this year's conference will something special — made even more so with your there. Nobel Prize winner Muhammad Yunus, Executive Director of UNICEF Tony Lake, and author and activist Marianne Williamson will all be featured speakers at the conference. In fact, Marianne Williamson will hold a full day seminar on Saturday, July 19 called The New Activism: Combining Spirit and Action. There is no additional fee for this seminar, so plan to be there on Saturday to participate.
REGISTER TODAY for the RESULTS International Conference!
Also, if you or someone you know are 18–27 years old, be sure to apply for the conference REAL Change Scholarship. This scholarship provides the opportunity for young RESULTS activists and potential new activists to attend the RESULTS International Conference 2013 for a fraction of the overall cost. The deadline to apply is May 15. You can find more information about the REAL Change Program on the RESULTS website. Download and submit your application today!
The Karen McQuillan Fund provides financial support for those who would otherwise be unable to participate in the conference due to costs. Unfortunately, the amount we have to give can't meet the need for assistance. If you are able, please consider making a donation to the KMF to help others share in the conference experience. If you plan to come to the conference, you can donate to the KMF on the conference registration form. You can also donate online to RESULTS Educational Fund and in the Additional Notes section at the bottom of the form, put "Karen McQuillan Fund". Thank you for your support.
We're now accepting applications for people who would like to volunteer at the conference. Volunteers get their registration fee waived. The application is on the RESULTS IC page. The deadline to apply is Monday, April 22, and will notify chosen volunteers by Thursday, April 25.
Don't forget! REGISTER TODAY for this year's conference!
Despite our focus on the EITC and CTC this month, we also want keep you updated on what's happening with the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, formerly food stamps). We just learned that that the Senate Agriculture Committee could begin debating a new Farm Bill (which authorizes SNAP) as soon as next week. It is imperative that if and when a Senate Farm Bill makes it out of the committee, SNAP is protected. We assume that any Farm Bill from the House will include deep cuts to SNAP. The House cut SNAP by $16 billion in last year's Farm Bill proposal and cuts it by $135 billion in their new budget. That's why a strong Senate Farm Bill is so important. If the Senate bill also includes cuts, the debate will no longer focus on whether to cut SNAP but how much to cut SNAP. Let's send a strong message to senators (and House members) — protect and strengthen SNAP!
TAKE ACTION: Contact both your senators and urge them to sign onto the "Dear Colleague" letter being circulated by Sen. Kristen Gillibrand (D-NY). The letter urges the Senate Agriculture Committee to fully fund SNAP. There are currently 13 cosponsors. Call Senate offices this week or use our updated Senate SNAP e-mail alert to send your message today.
Also, urge your House members to sign onto House Resolution 90, which urges the House to reject any cuts to SNAP. There are currently 100 cosponsors. Urge your representative to sign on. If he/she already has, thank them and urge them to ask their colleagues to sign on as well. Call House offices or use our updated House SNAP e-mail alert to send your message today.
This weekend, RESULTS staff members of our Expansion Team met in Washington, DC to strategize on new ways to engage people in the work of ending poverty. It was jammed-packed agenda and, working with former RESULTS staff member and current consultant Melanie Vant, we learned some great new strategies and techniques to expand our network. We will be working in the coming weeks and months to implement these tools and develop more new ones to help grow RESULTS.
In fact, you can soon see these new tools in action. RESULTS New England Organizer Jenny Martin is traveling to Bangor, Maine and Boston, Massachusetts in April and May to start new U.S. poverty groups. Jenny will host the RESULTS Bangor outreach meeting on Sunday, April 28, 2:00–4:00 pm ET, at the Unitarian Universalist Church, 120 Park St in Bangor (Facebook page). Then on Thursday, May 9, 6:30–8:30 pm ET, Jenny will host the RESULTS Boston outreach meeting at the Weymouth Public Library, Tufts Branch, 46 Broad St, Weymouth, MA (Facebook page). If you know people in Maine, Boston, or other parts of New England, please let Jenny know at (413) 774-1707, [email protected].
Also, RESULTS Southern Region Organizer Myrdin Thompson has a RESULTS outreach meeting in Nashville, TN, tentatively set for May 7.She is also looking for leads in Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky. If you have leads in these places, please contact Myrdin at (502) 295-1315, [email protected].
In addition, RESULTS Director of U.S. Poverty Campaigns Meredith Dodson and RESULTS Senior Associate Jos Linn are working with advocates in Orange County, CA, to start a new RESULTS U.S. Poverty group. We have a RESULTS outreach meeting tentatively set for Thursday, June 6. We'll have more details in the coming weeks but if you know anyone interested in helping us start this group, please contact Jos at (515) 288-3622, [email protected].
Finally, the RESULTS U.S. Poverty Free Agents Call is TONIGHT. If you are an active RESULTS volunteer but you live in an area with no active RESULTS U.S. Poverty group, RESULTS Free Agents get together each month for a support call where we celebrate recent successes, review current actions, get legislative updates, and provide you support with your advocacy work. Plan to join us for our next call tonight, April 16 at 9:00 pm ET. To participate, dial (218) 486-1611, passcode RESULTS# (7378587#). Contact Jos for more details at (515) 288-3622, [email protected].
Last week, the Obama Administration released its fiscal year (FY) 2014 budget. In it, the president makes some aggressive and welcomed investments in early childhood programs. Here are some of the details of his proposal:
The proposal overrides sequestration cuts — Head Start and Early Head Start would see a combined increase of $200 million in FY 2014 and the Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG) would see a $500 million increase in mandatory funding and $200 million to fund child care quality initiatives
The proposal expands voluntary home visiting programs ($15 billion)
The proposal expands high-quality care for infants and toddlers through partnerships between Early Head Start and child care ($1.4 billion)
The proposal would create a universal pre-K program, where all low- and moderate-income families would have access to high-quality pre-kindergarten programs through mandatory funding funded from an increase in the tobacco tax ($75 billion)
For more information about the president's early childhood proposal, see this detailed fact sheet from the National Women's Law Center (NWLC). Also, NWLC will be hosting a national call tomorrow, April 17 at 4:00 pm ET to go through the president's proposal and review steps you can take to move this idea forward. You can register for the call at the NWLC website.
TAKE ACTION: Tell your members of Congress to follow the president's lead by investing in our children. Tell them to protect Head Start and child care funding and invest more resources in early learning. Use our updated online e-mail alert to contact them today.
We also encourage you to listen to last Saturday's national conference call to hear Roxanne Reddington-Wilde share about her experience working for community action in Boston and the impact sequestration has had on her and her agency.
Attend an Upcoming RESULTS Regional Conference. This weekend, RESULTS volunteers in the Midwest and Northeast will be gathering for regional RESULTS conferences.

Rite Aid shares steamed toward their biggest one-day percentage gain in more than three decades Thursday after the struggling drugstore chain reported a rare profit and easily topped analyst expectations.
Shares advanced over 45 percent after the company said it booked $51.5 million in net income in its fiscal third quarter, compared to a $4.5 million loss last year. The change was due mainly to a big gain from some debt retirement.
Earnings, adjusted for one-time gains and costs, came to 54 cents per share, far surpassing the 7 cents Wall Street had expected, according to a survey by FactSet.
Revenue edged up slightly to $5.46 billion, also beating analyst projections for $5.42 billion in the quarter that ended Nov. 30.
Rite Aid runs more than 2,400 drugstores in 18 states. The company has struggled, like larger rivals CVS and Walgreens, with reimbursement cuts and thinner profits from some drugs, among other problems.
While there was a huge percentage gain in the company's shares, the stock is not what it once was. Shares can be had for a third of what they would have cost in the summer of 2018.
The company's shares slipped below $1 about a year ago, which forced the company to chop its share count by about 95% last spring. That pushed the price of the remaining shares above minimum trading requirements on the New York Stock Exchange.
Rite Aid jettisoned long-time CEO John Standley and several other top executives earlier this year. In August, it named former insurance executive Heyward Donigan CEO.
The company said Thursday that it now expects fiscal 2020 adjusted earnings of between 13 cents and 55 cents per share. That's a narrower range compared to a forecast it made in September for between 0 and 56 cents per share.
Shares of Rite Aid Corp., based in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, rose $3.91 to $12.23 while broader indexes advanced slightly.

Why Don't My Parents Respect Me?
My parents don't respect me!
Most people desire to be respected by their parents. But the individuals above had not realized that receiving respect from our parents is something we all have a hand in.
Start by showing some respect for yourself.
Respecting yourself is not just about confidence; it's about taking care of yourself and your stuff. Do your laundry, shower, and dress. Clean up your living space and wash your vehicle. After doing so, you'll feel a little more worthy of respect and maybe you'll be ready to work on reshaping your relationships with your parents.
Tell your parent how you feel about the problems in your relationship, listen to his/her perspective, and try to gain common ground. Good communication is free of outbursts. Don't react, just talk and listen. If you're having trouble controlling your emotions in a difficult conversation, ask a family member, clergyman, or a counseling professional to mediate.
It's hard to respect someone who is complaining and laying blame on others. While it's okay to discuss problem relationships and attempt to sort out your feelings, if you're blaming and complaining, you're probably wasting your valuable time. Instead, try to work toward solutions. If you cannot think of ways to move forward, ask someone wise for ideas, but remain focused on resolving problems rather than running through a list of ways you've been wronged.
Kindness earns respect. Little gestures, like making coffee in the morning, or stopping to say "thanks" for they ways your parents support you, go a long way toward a more respectful relationship. Treat them the way you hope to be treated in return.
Earning a little bit of money, even a small amount from a few hours of childcare or lawn work on the weekends, can help. Taking care of your own needs gives you more freedom and control, and it's easier for parents to respect you when you function independently as an adult.
Be accountable for your choices.
Everyone appreciates someone who takes responsibility for his or her actions. If you make a mistake, apologize sincerely and solve any problems caused by your mistake.
And finally, if you have done everything in your power to gain your parent's respect and nothing is improving, maybe it's time to get some distance. If you're a young adult living at home, it might be time to look for another place to stay. Sometimes a little geographic distance helps create better relationships in a family.

It was a real struggle because I felt like I was already facing so much judgment for being someone with disabilities others can't see. Situations like these caused many panic attacks, meltdowns, tears, and fear. I didn't want to go in public and my anxiety would start to rage simply anticipating these situations. These examples don't even include the more aggressive and less friendly interactions regarding public access. You can only imagine how difficult those situations are to navigate emotionally, mentally, and physically.
At one point in our journey together a meltdown took place in the foyer of a popular, local store. I was on the floor in tears with my arms wrapped around Sailor as she placed deep pressure on my lap. I could feel shoppers coming into the store behind me looking at us wondering what was happening, and if anybody should do anything. Sailor knew what was happening to me and knew how to respond. This is what a working service dog team can look like. Sometimes we look perfectly normal when things are going well, but at times we can look like something might be wrong, when in fact the dog is doing exactly what it is trained to do. Sailor is my superhero.
We never know when triggers will occur that can warrant Sailor to go into action with her tasks, so it is so important that the general public understand and respect the role of a service dog as a medical device for its handler. You may not be able to see the disability, but please know that there is often more than meets the eye. If you aren't sure if a dog is a service dog, there are some clues to look for. Service dogs are usually marked, but the Americans With Disabilities Act law does not require a vest or cape. Most handlers will use a vest though and place patches with helpful instructions for others. They may read "Do Not Pet" or "Do Not Distract". Please know that we mean what the patches say and we truly appreciate when others obey them. You can also recognize a service dog because they are walking on all fours next to their handler, although special situations can apply for diabetes trained dogs. Service dogs are trained to maintain a particular proximity to their handler. You won't see service dogs on retractable leashes, in carriages, or riding in shopping carts. It is important to recognize their demeanor. They are well-trained dogs with a specific temperament to be able to do their job. Although dogs sometimes make mistakes, you won't hear a service dog barking in public or being noisy. Actually if they are doing well at their job, most people won't even realize they are in the building until they walk right passed you. Sailor and I have that happen often when we fly or when we are in a restaurant. She is quietly tucked away at my feet. When we get up and leave, you hear people saying, "I didn't even know there was a dog in here!" That makes me feel good because it has been a journey to navigate new environments and train her to stay focused in a variety of different environments.
As a rule when it comes to service dogs, it is best to just let the handler and their dog go about their life. They are likely doing what you are doing, picking up a few things and trying to get on with their day. Imagine for a moment if you were approached at every aisle for how cute you look and having to explain where you got your outfit, why you chose it, who sewed it for you, why you chose that pattern, how it impacts your mental well being. Would you want that? You would be exhausted! We often are. As friendly as many of those types of interactions are, they can happen hundreds of times in one day This makes a long, tiring day for just trying to pick up milk and bread.
After a year of training in many different places and situations, Sailor now attends school with me everyday. I am a public school music teacher in New Jersey and am thankful to have Sailor with me at work. In just a matter of one month, we are already seeing changes in my daily functioning and the physiology of my body because of her and the job she does everyday.
The site is dedicated to their journey together.

West Marin, meet Mari Tamburo
by Samantha Kimmey April 7, 2016
CANDIDATES: Mari Tamburo, a singer who lives in Homestead Valley at the southestern border of District 4, said West Marin's run of local representatives to the county board was long enough. She said an "everyday" person should nab the seat, but that other candidates could contribute. David Briggs
Mari Tamburo, a New Jersey native who grew up in HUD housing and now lives in Homestead Valley, is perhaps the least traditional candidate in the District 4 race. She is a singer and songwriter who has a band, Livin' Like Kings, with her husband, Arnie. She has worked odd jobs between gigs, including selling cars and working at a video warehouse. But about six years ago, a project to build a sidewalk in her neighborhood, which she vehemently opposed, pulled her into the political process. She failed to stop the sidewalk project, which was spearheaded by a group, Safe Routes to Schools, long run by one of her opponents, Wendi
Kallins.
During a lengthy and at times freewheeling discussion with the Light, Ms. Tamburo said that open communication and green infrastructure are key issues for her.
Point Reyes Light: Tell me about yourself.
Mari Tamburo: For most of my life I've been a singer. I've been a cocktail waitress. I've had many jobs. I worked for a large manufacturing company, which is very corporate. Didn't really like that much. [I used to be in a band called] Greg's Eggs; we used to rehearse out in Olema, on this ranch, and the cows would come in as I would sing. There was this one particular cow: whenever I was there, she would come close to the barn. Greg told me that didn't happen when they were just playing with the instruments… I really found a fondness for West Marin. I think it's just so beautiful.
I'm trying to figure out what I could tell you that could give even a slight hint of the skills that I have the makes me think I could do this job. Some of my friends are like, "Are you crazy?" First of all, why would you even want to do this? What I realize when I look back over my life is I'm always trying to help people.
Homestead feels a lot like West Marin. We had a semi-rural environment before that thing [the sidewalk] was foisted on us. The four-block sidewalk. It sticks out like a sore thumb. For many years, I've been fascinated with what they described as green infrastructure. I didn't even realize what it was. Roof gardens fascinated me. I didn't even know what storm-water runoff was when this whole thing came about.
Light: Tell me about the sidewalk project that you advocated against.
Tamburo: This thing was well-intentioned. It started in 2000 or 2001. Marin Horizon [a private school in Homestead] was contacted to be a part of Safe Routes to Schools. There was a spark of an idea: "Hey, let's restore this walking path." This was after the school expansion, which we fought. To get the permit they had to agree to a strict traffic plan.
That traffic plan was working. But several years later, the money got approved and they were like, "Great, we can build the sidewalk." But we didn't need it anymore. All these old feelings came back, but people didn't want to fight it; they were tired. My intention was to say, "Hey, I know about this community-built process." Eighty hours a week, I was researching all kinds of things, like transportation infrastructure. I met people in the community-built movement. They do things like… placemaking. It's not top-down. I was blogging like a maniac. There was misrepresentation of danger to pedestrians in the application. They were not in danger. Since [the sidewalk was built] we've had five accidents on the street. No one got hurt, just property damage.
Light: And you believe that's because of the sidewalk?
Tamburo: They paved the road, so people go a little faster. But also the dynamic of the street usage has changed; they "fixed" the street. They flattened it a little bit. The only flat place to walk before was right in the middle of the street. So we all got used to that pattern of use.
I found out that other communities had way more workshops with Safe Route to Schools. It still feels very wrong. I can't walk down the street with one of my neighbors complaining to me about the sidewalk and how it's changed things. I wish I didn't have to talk about this, but it's staring me in the face every day.
Light: It seems like that experience is really informing why you're running. It seems like a cornerstone of your run is about communication.
Tamburo: Yes. That's why I jumped in with my communication skills. I went to school for communications because I wanted to have creative control over my music videos. I'm kind of a D.I.Y. person.
Light: Why don't you talk about your music and media work?
Tamburo: I have like 15 different things. I have my Vehicle for Change [Web] page, which mostly has to do with random transportation things… I started it because I wanted to start a nonprofit arm to [my music] studio where I'd do recordings to raise money for nonprofits, a social enterprise structure. My husband really couldn't grasp that. That's why I got involved with the social enterprise world and I founded the San Francisco chapter of the Social Enterprise Alliance. It's an earned income model structure to help nonprofits become more self-sustaining.
I'd love us to see us get serious about arts programs in schools. They offer housing for artists in San Rafael. I'd love to see something like that in West Marin.
Light: I've asked all the candidates about the ranch lawsuit. What's your perspective?
Tamburo: I would love to see ranching stay in West Marin. I understand why the lawsuit was filed, because you can't just have things open-ended. I believe they don't have a management plan set.
Light: The seashore has been working on a ranch management plan and said they were going to release a draft environmental assessment. Then the lawsuit came out, saying you shouldn't do a ranch management plan without first doing your General Management Plan, because it's 36 years old. But general plans can take years. And leading up to this, the park was saying it couldn't give ranchers longer leases without a ranch plan. Ranchers want to diversify and get longer leases to help them get financing. So that's a nutshell.
Tamburo: What I sense is apprehension on the part of the ranchers because of what happened with the oyster company.
Light: Do you have any additional thoughts?
Tamburo: We have to see where the lawsuit goes, but I would like to see ranching stay. I would like to see collaboration amongst environmental groups that are concerned. I think it's a part of West Marin's history and culture. I don't want to see ranching go away, but we do need to protect waterways, and biodiversity is important. That's in everyone's best interest.
Light: Another issue we've reported on is the Local Coastal Program. Ranchers have advocated for getting intergenerational housing, which would let them have up to three homes on ranches in the coastal zone, whereas now they're only allowed one. What do you think about that?
Tamburo: I've talked to several people about this and a number that was there was 1.5 million square feet of additional development. [Reporter's note: in 2014, California Coastal Commission staff disputed the way the Sierra Club calculated this number.] That's a concern. That seems like a lot. I really don't want to see more development. We've already got a traffic problem. I do understand people want to have their family carry on the ranch tradition. I've got to look into that one more, and of course talk to people to see how they feel. And [look at] what's legal and what's fair. None of this is really black and white.
Light: Let's move on to housing generally. The county has had multiple workshops on affordable housing. Do we need to develop more housing or just preserve what we have?
Tamburo: Here's what I propose. We have folks that come and flip properties; they max out the square footage and sell it for a huge profit. I would like to see members of the community who are concerned pool resources and and buy distressed properties before a flipper does. Then we can keep them in the community, like a community housing trust. We have the Homestead Valley Land Trust, where we have a lot of open space.
This is all a part of the place-making culture that started in Portland. I would like to see people get more proactive. If the county could do it, that would be even better, but I'm not sure if that's overstepping, because usually these are programs started at the community level. Grassroots activism at its best.
Light: So you feel like this should be dealt with on a grassroots level?
Tamburo: I'm not a fan of top-down mandates. That's where we got Scotch broom. "Hey, this is great to prevent soil erosion." Now it's choked out all the native plants. In the case of Scotch broom, maybe we should be making baskets out of the stuff so that people can have a job. Making brooms out of it. We need creative people. We need fewer people who have been doing government and more everyday people getting involved. That's why I also advocate for term limits for supervisor. Twenty years? That's ridiculous. Also I have ideas about public funding; candidates should have a certain amount allotted and that's it. The filing fees alone; for some people it's not a lot of money, but [it is] to someone who's worked in various blue-collar and white-collar jobs in between music gigs.
Light: It's a crowded race.
Tamburo: There are so many great people running. If I were supervisor, I would try to hire all these people to stay in their communities. Brian, he's good at planning. I'd put him in planning. Wendy, I'd say, "Hey, let's forget about the mess you made here and let's move forward. Let's not put down any more impervious surface that will put our local creeks at risk." Dugan, he seems big on the whole pension thing. Let's let him do his thing there. Then we've got Tomas. Well, sure, okay. The candidate pool is as diverse as this district. I never in my wildest dreams thought I would run for public office. But the whole sidewalk thing made me realize that I have something that is of value that I can give to the community. Part of it is bringing the knowledge of community-built processes to planning.
Light: Vacation rentals are a particular issue in West Marin. Some have asked the county to regulate. What do you think?
Tamburo: I don't know what we can do legally. There have been suggestions of levying some sort of fee on second or third homes. Airbnb itself is going through growing pains regulation-wise, because other places are cracking down. Tiburon is saying you just can't do it. Two weeks and that's it. [Reporter's note: last fall, Tiburon banned short-term vacation rentals by prohibiting rentals for less than 31 days.] Again, this goes back to communities being proactive. I'd like to get out [to West Marin] and talk to some people. Maybe I can hit some open mics in the area.
Light: What other issues are important to you?
Tamburo: I want to increase green infrastructure. I would like to see a zero runoff initiative for any new development so that we don't pollute our waterways anymore. Water is life to me.
Light: Where do you stand on pesticides on county land? Sometimes the county uses them on road medians because they don't want to stop traffic [while working].
Tamburo: Let me tell you about road medians: We should get rid of them and turn them into rain gardens. People are going to think I'm crazy, but that's okay. I want to get rid of all the curbs. The curb is a tripping hazard. There are new technologies available. We really need to stop laying down impervious pavement. I'm all about low-impact development. I don't know how I got into this stuff; it just came naturally because it looks so cool.
Light: Some people in West Marin feel strongly that they want to elect someone who lives in West Marin.
Tamburo: I would say that it's more than location that give someone an ability to relate to another person's situation. Because of life experiences, and I can feel the pain… And I think we need someone from Homestead Valley this time around. For like 40 years we've had someone from West Marin. That's a long time. That's a long time. It's time for some change. Creative, positive change.

"The snowbanks downtown are just crazy"
No vehicles can be parked on the downtown business district city streets or risk getting ticketed, and towed at the owner's expense.
WISCONSIN RAPIDS - The snow continues to fall and Wisconsin Rapids has been hit as hard as any local community.
Due to the large amount of snow that has to be removed, the City of Wisconsin Rapids eastside and westside downtown business districts will be under a snow emergency beginning immediately and last until 3 p.m. Wednesday, according to a press release from the Wisconsin Rapids Police Department.
The press release also said no vehicles can be parked on the downtown business district city streets or risk getting ticketed and towed at the owner's expense.
Wisconsin Rapids Police Department Lieutenant Brian Krzykowski is shocked by the weather. He said the snow is fluffier today, but on Saturday Rapids Police helped push out 25 to 30 cars stuck in roadways.
"The snowbanks downtown are just crazy," Krzykowski said. "Friday we had nothing on the ground, now it's just unbelievable."


Ocean 2-in-1 Hair + Body Wash is rated 4.9 out of 5 by 92.
Rated 5 out of 5 by JPatts from Best fragrance ever for men! My husband isn't big on fragrances until I introduced him to Ocean. This is the only men's fragrance that he will buy! We both love the sporty invigorating yet manly smell that it offers. I absolutely love the way it goes with my husband's body chemistry! We're both just a little sad that the shave cream is no longer available therefore he has to improvise by using the body wash as shave cream. Please bring it back!!


Its my dream to build my own tuning keys for guitars which i build myself.
i came across with a workshop which has M1TR machine on which they do their milling job.
will be very helpful to him.
can anyone help me in this regard to know the distance between the centre of the worm and gear?
the ratio generally is 1:15 and OD of the gear is about 10-12 mm.
there is VMC too in my vicinity . but it needs 3d model in igs or step files.
My mate across the road makes and restores violins. I have made some worm gears and pinions for him in the past. I shall ask if he has a guitar piece . I made a special tap/hob thingy to mill the worm wheel in the lathe .
do u make worms and gear?
if i give u my specs then can u make the worm and gear in smaller quantity??
or atleast can u give me dimensions and module of the gear and worm i want?
im planning of OD-12 mm and module 0.6 with 18 teeth .
is it ok or should i go for lesser teeth like OD-12mm and 15 teeth which has 0.7 module?
I would use the .7 module. The tooth form is slightly larger. I will look for that module on my emco super 11, I know my colchester triumph 2000 has it. I could make you a couple to start. Do you have any machining capabilities?
it means i should go for OD-12 and 15 Teeths?
i dont have machining capabilities.
should i use phospor bronze or aluminium bronze for gears?
if u make wat will be price per set?
Phosphor bronze usually for gears. Send me dimensions and I will make a sample for you.
Thanks. sir for the favour.
i have attached the drawings .
i have copied from a website and hand drawn.
before making the sample can u give me price for set of worm and gear?
also can u make video of hobbing the gear ?
WOW!! I can almost SEE those pictures!!!
I shouldn't say anything,as bad as my pictures can be. But,I have to plead that it was because I had this small Canon auto focus camera. You could not focus manually with it. It focused very often on something near that you WANTED to take a picture of,and your object was really out of focus.
I now have a Canon Rebel,which I CAN focus by hand. So,hopefully my pictures should be better.
Hello friends after visiting more than 100 workshops my project is going well.
everything is upto the mark. but one small problem is left.
im build the keys buttons. but there is one problem of engaging the worm in the button.
i want to make double D-slot but not finding proper idea or tools. need ur help.
im attaching the fotos of the button for slot reference.
How deep is the slot? Using an end mill you will not get a sharp corner as depicted in your sample knob.
the slot is about 8- 1 0 mm deep.
i just need to put the shaft in the button so that it should not slip.
i came to know that instead of endmill we can use 2 flute spiral slot cutter.
planning to use 3.5mm slot cutter and to slide the milling table to and fro for 1 mm. is it ok?
or can i make pin like this and insert in the button?
If you can get by with a corner radius then the slot cutter should work.
Yes unfortunately those are molded pieces and a milling machine really can't make that shape of hole. Isn't it more practical to buy these?
I know, you want to make the whole guitar. I understand completely. You should talk to Frank Ford at Gryphon stringed instruments, he posts here sometimes.
I agree it would not be possible to mill that shape on a manual mill. I was thinking CNC mill when I made that post but didn't say it. My bad.
