Some Reasons to Support Gay Marriage
I'm writing this in response to the exciting conversation over at Jack and Jill Politics about gay marriage. Several people in the comments section of the original post have mentioned that the pro-gay marriage movement is elitist and ignores the concerns of minority voters. I don't have a ton of time for this, so please excuse my obnoxious PowerPoint style here:
A few of the material benefits:
* Full marriage equality is especially important for working-class and poor gays and lesbians because it grants them necessary spousal benefits, from health insurance to social security (once DoMA is gone).
* Immigrant and foreign citizen gays and lesbians cannot be sponsored for a green card by their American partners. This disproportionately effects poor and working-class gay people who cannot afford to immigrate on student visas or spend years in this country without working.
* State and federal tax breaks afforded to married couples would help working-class gays and lesbians.
Psychological and social benefits:
* One reason that gay people are concentrated in certain areas (New York, San Francisco) is because of homophobia in people's communities of origin. For many gays and lesbians, the difficult choice is to leave their communities to live openly or stay close to home and remain closeted. The legitimacy and dignity of full marriage equality brings us closer to a time when various communities accept sexuality diversity and gays and lesbians can live openly in their communities of origin.
* The children of gays, as I mention in my previous post, are not a hypothetical but an existing group of people. When these partnerships are not granted the same rights and dignity as straight partnerships because of homophobia, this has a negative effect on the self-esteem on the thousands of children of gay families.
* According to Dr. King, unjust laws are those that take the rights away from a certain group that are afforded to another group. An unjust law "gives the segregator a false sense of superiority and the segregated a false sense of inferiority." Because heterosexual adults are allowed to enter into civil contracts called marriages, the California Supreme Court decided that it is only fair to allow any two adults to enter into a civil contract called a marriage. The active retraction of that right by California voters represents a step back towards separate and unequal.
A couple of additional comments:
* Many people believe that the pro-gay marriage movement's use of the term "civil rights" is meant to evoke the Civil Rights movement of the 1960s. While I agree that the term is evocative of the brilliant struggles of that time period, it's also the correct term for the rights granted to individuals in our society for the nonpolitical conduct of their lives. Marriage rights, adoption rights, and property ownership rights are all examples of civil rights.
* The will of the electorate is not always used to decide issues of expanded civil rights, and with good reason. In cases where a majority seems intent to strip the rights of a minority, it is the responsibility of the courts to decide if laws that exclude the minority group are constitutional or not.
* In the case of California, the "No on 8" (pro-gay marriage) people were on the defensive. It is simply a different psychological position when you're trying to ask voters to grant rights than when you have some rights that voters are being given the opportunity to take away from you. It was not a passive or status-quo-maintaining choice to outlaw gay marriage. It was an active choice to remove rights, and I think that a "Why did you do that?" response is to be expected.
* Hopefully, after this tragic defeat of equality, the pro-gay marriage movement will adopt a positive, awareness-raising stance rather than one of scapegoating of various groups and lashing out. Gay voters were big Obama supporters, and he mentioned the contributions of gay Americans to his campaign within the first moments of his victory speech. That bodes well. We can reconcile our differences, but only if we continue to talk to each other respectfully. Scapegoating is wrong and unproductive. However, if a group of people (in this case, African-American voters) has taken a pretty strong stance against the rights of another group of people (gays who seek marriage equality), we have to be able to have dialogue. African-American voters effected the outcome of this proposition, and so what that means to me is that it's time for some serious outreach to the African-American voters and communities in this country. As long as the conversations are respectful, I see no reason why non-Black gays and lesbians cannot engage in them. It's unfair to Black gays and lesbians to ask them to launch and execute a behind-closed-doors PR campaign for Black voters all on their own; that simply does not make sense. We're all Americans, and we can all talk to each other.

Prop 8 Bigots: The Worst Americans
I would like to name some names. From the caption of this photograph in the LA Times, "Bob Knoke, of Mission Viejo, Amanda Stanfield, of Monrovia, Jim Domen, of Yorba Linda, and J.D. Gaddis, of Yorba Linda, celebrate returns for Proposition 8 at an Irvine hotel."
Dear Bob, Amanda, Jim, and J.D.,
How sad it is that you have marred this beautiful, historic election with your unbridled elation at the triumph of bigotry and hate (by however miniscule a margin). Like videos of smug, self-satisfied racists chanting "2-4-6-8, we don't want to integrate," this image of the four of you celebrating the stripping of rights from a minority group will be viewed by the eyes of history with disgust and shame.
All day, we have been hearing incredible stories of the children and grandchildren of former slaves voting for a black man, of people who attended segregated schools and marched with Dr. King seeing a day they never thought would come in their lifetimes, of the kinds of bitter and casual racism in people's day-to-day lives that was soundly rejected by millions of people across this nation yesterday. Well, now I'm going to tell you my story.
I remember sitting in my 11th grade Advanced Placement American History class at Plano East Senior High School in Texas. My teacher (let's call her "Mrs. B") was asked about some of her political beliefs. She wouldn't talk about abortion or the death penalty, saying they were too volatile and that her opinions might upset people in the class. Then, "Ah!" she said, remembering a belief that she was sure would be uncontroversial. "I don't think gay people should be allowed to have children."
I sat there turning red. Only one close friend of mine in the class knew that I lived with my mother and her female partner, who raised me together for most of my childhood. As Mrs. B elaborated on the dysfunction that she surmised would befall the poor children of gays, I shuddered at the idea of being discovered. I desperately wanted to defend my own existence as a successful young person with the very background she was maligning, but I could only do so at my social peril. Despite the fact that most of my friends suspected the truth about my family, I was too afraid to reveal it. The climate was too charged with hatred and fear. I felt so frustrated and ashamed at myself for not being brave enough to tell my teacher the truth. I felt so afraid of the harsh judgment of those around me, especially religious Christians. I felt degraded and dismissed, and I sat there with no recourse, a 16-year-old gnashing her teeth with fear and shame, frustration and self-loathing.
With Prop 8, there has been much talk of "the children." These children are always hypothetical. Well, we're not. We're real, and we exist, and we are AWESOME. We're successful and balanced and productive members of society. And we will raise our children alongside yours, teaching them to be proud of their diverse backgrounds. We will do this so that no child will have to feel humiliated, marginalized, invisible, as I did in my 11th grade history class that day.
The only problem the children of gay people have is bigots like you.
So, back to your legacy, Bob Knoke and Amanda Stanfield and Jim Domen and J.D. Gaddis. On a day when America broke through some of its most painful discriminatory legacies, you stood for bigotry. On a day when the nation defied the expectations of the world, you became justice's worst nightmare. On a day when thousands of children might have been elevated to dignity with the validation of their family bonds, you reduced those children to second-class citizens. While we stood up to believe "Yes we can," you blocked the door to equality and viciously replied, "Actually, no you can't, you gays." (Perhaps you used stronger words than "gays.") But that is no matter. We have heard it all, and we have survived.
My people -- gay people, the families of gay people -- will not be defeated. We will continue to live our lives, build our families, contribute to our society, and live with dignity. You may never be convinced of our equality, but your children or your children's children will be. I hope for the day when you see the error of your ways, but I also know that if that day does not ever come, your ideologies will nonetheless be defeated. I believe that unjust laws must be destroyed, and if you don't, I suggest you read what I read every single January:

Discussion in 'Where to Buy' started by qonyx_sydney, 27th May, 2015.
I would regard some of the new North West Sydney suburbs (Rouse Hill, Schofields, The Ponds etc) as very similar to new South West Sydney suburbs (Edmondson Park, Leppington, Gregory Hills, Middleton Grange).
Because people associate The new Blacktown developments with the Hills district and anything south west is associated with Campbelltown. All about perception.
I'd agree with your comment on perception, however what that suggests is that if the fundamentals are the same then should eventually balance out over a longer time-frame.
The question again, can perception be the cause of a $160k difference in valuation if the fundamentals are the same?
There has been higher demand in the Hills areas for a long time. You could have asked anyone and they would have preferred to live there. But it does look like South West is now the big growth area in the West.
It's mostly the new land developments and the areas before Campbelltown that are highly desirable.
Perception and where people want to live. I suspect that you would also see that the average household income is higher in the Hills areas too.
Agree SW Sydney is bounding forward and may catch up.
Yes looks like for those areas it is the same, but I was thinking more of as a whole collection of suburbs, when people decide South West or North West.
I also think the difference in price is due to perception. The same reason why the same house is more expensive east of Winsord Rd than west of Winsord Rd.
In my opinion overtime the difference on prices will narrow. For example, since the mortgages are likely to be higher in Rouse Hill than in Harrington Park and both share the same level of income, you could argue than in a correction Rouse Hill pricess will drop more than Harrington Park.
Don't just look at Harrington Park because that's the luxury estate in Southwest..
Look at Oran Park, Gledswood Hills, Leppington and Edmondson Park. Look at demographics.. Edmondson Park household income is $1200. Leppington is $1040.. I can't find the incomes for many of these other suburbs but i'm guessing they're lower in comparison to The Ponds ($2471), kellyville ($2251), Stanhope Gardens ($2140) and Bella Vista ($2634)..
Let's look at geographical location too.. Harrington Park is 64km from Sydney CBD according to google maps..58km to Parramatta..
Rouse Hill to Parramatta is 20km and 43km to Sydney CBD. It has better (trendier) shops and is closer to some more desirable suburbs e.g. kellyville, bella vista, castle hill..So will be looked at as more desirable I guess..
I live not too far from Edmondson Park, and I think it's all just as nice as Northwest.. I just feel once you go past Edmondson Park or even Leppington though you're just so far away from everything.. In saying that, people thought Rouse Hill was too far not too long ago.. I don't know if the airport will have a positive or negative affect on property prices in SW..Only worry I have in SW is that there's sooo much more land that's gonna be subdivided and there's even rezoning of more land to be subdivided whereas NW has a fair bit too but most estates are at least half sold..
I go to Hillsong mate.. Care to share how a church influences prices of property around it?
Its somewhat happening now too. Super long term, ceteris paribus, the south west has an advantage I reckon, with the new airport coming up. If you're looking for just long term (or mid term), I'd expect the difference to remain somewhat similar.
Nice bit of analysis, however the income statistics would be skewed in the developing suburbs of Edmondson, Leppington, Oran Park as development of the land would include old landowners incomes (semi-self-sufficient agricultural) and this would contribute to the lower income average.
I think that generally the Northwest is more leafy than the South West, which I think is one factor.
The Hills also has proximity to both Macqaurie Park and Norwest Business Park.
Could be because the work opportunities in the nor west business park.
That airport is long term, also people do not like living near airport (unless it is close to CBD) due to aircraft noise.
Also there are still plenty of lands out there for development.
When NWRL is completed the Hills district will be connected to Norwest, Macquarie Park, Chatswood, St Leonards, North Sydney and City. That is very easy access to a lot of white collar jobs.
I know people who live at South (Beverly Hills) and commute to Macquarie Park and it took them ages even on train. They eventually moved up north of Sydney.
SW just does not have many white collar jobs out there.
I didn't really think about that in my analysis as i was only thinking localized or CBD.
As such I would likely predict that the valuation gap would remain unless there is an increase in whitecollar or other job opportunities in the south west.
I live in Baulkham Hills, and feel I don't need to lock my car when I drive around, I don't need to set alarm in my house ( I don't have dog), and I don't feel I need to park my car inside garage. Definitely I will do all of those, if I live in SW. I travel a lot to Banksia, Casula and Revesby area, I definitely can say those areas are not for me. I'd say my perception about security, the deciding point.

REJECTED

I am trying to calculate the sum for each user of the idle time, so the time between status DONE and next IN_TRANSIT for that user.
The result should be

user_id
idle_time

100
01:00:00

104
02:00:00

A: select    user_id
         ,idle_time
from     (
          select  user_id
                 ,status
                 ,created_at-lag(created_at) over(partition by user_id order by created_at)   as idle_time
                 ,lag(status) over(partition by user_id order by created_at)                  as pre_status
          from    t
         ) t
where    status     = 'IN_TRANSIT'
and      pre_status = 'DONE'

user_id
idle_time

100
01:00:00

104
02:00:00

Fiddle

A: Try the following:
select user_id, min(case status when 'IN_TRANSIT' then created_at end) -
       min(case status when 'DONE' then created_at end) idle_time
from
  (
    select user_id, created_at, status,
           sum(case status when 'DONE' then 1 end) over (partition by user_id order by created_at) as grp
    from table_name
  ) T
group by user_id, grp
having min(case status when 'IN_TRANSIT' then created_at end) -
       min(case status when 'DONE' then created_at end) is not null

This will find the time difference between 'DONE' status and the first next 'IN_TRANSIT' status, if there is a multiple 'IN_TRANSIT' statuses after and you want to find the difference with the last one just change min(case status when 'IN_TRANSIT' then created_at end) to max.
Also, if there are multiple 'DONE', 'IN_TRANSIT' for a user_id, then they will show as a separate rows in the result, but you can use this query as a subquery to find the sum of all differences grouped by user_id.
See a demo.

A: you need to use lag function for finding the diff between first and second row
select user_id,idle_time from (select user_id,status,
 created_at - lag(created_at) over (order by user_id, created_at)
  as idle_time
from calctime)
as drt  WHERE  idle_time > interval '10 sec' and status='IN_TRANSIT'

26 And he said, "The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed upon the ground, 27 and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should sprout and grow, he knows not how. 28 The earth produces of itself, first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear. 29 But when the grain is ripe, at once he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come." 30 And he said, "With what can we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable shall we use for it? 31 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when sown upon the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth; 32 yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes the greatest of all shrubs, and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the air can make nests in its shade." 33 With many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it; 34 he did not speak to them without a parable, but privately to his own disciples he explained everything.
Meditation: What can mustard seeds teach us about the kingdom of God? The tiny mustard seed literally grew to be a tree which attracted numerous birds because they loved the little black mustard seed it produced. God's kingdom works in a similar fashion. It starts from the smallest beginnings in the hearts of men and women who are receptive to God's word. And it works unseen and causes a transformation from within. Just as a seed has no power to change itself until it is planted in the ground, so we cannot change our lives to be like God until God gives us the power of his Holy Spirit. The Lord of the Universe is ever ready to transform us by the power of his Spirit. Are you ready to let God change you by his grace and power? The kingdom of God produces a transformation in those who receive the new life which Jesus Christ offers. When we yield to Jesus Christ, our lives are transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit who dwells in us. Paul the Apostle says, "we have this treasure in earthen vessels, to show that the transcendent power belongs to God and not to us" (2 Cor. 4:7). Do you believe in the transforming power of the Holy Spirit?

Disability and the black community
By James Harley
As American society commemorates Black History Month and continues to reckon with the state of racism and equity in our country, I was invited by Jason Harris, LADD's director of strategic operations, to share my thoughts about disability in the African American community. As an individual who has had cerebral palsy my whole life and who is African American, I know firsthand about many challenges.
Racism, poverty and low unemployment rates have historically plagued the African American community as a whole. This has been even worse for African American people with disabilities. It's even harder for a Black American with a disability to gain meaningful employment and to receive healthcare that they need, which we see right now especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. People with disabilities as a whole struggle with isolationism and this is even worse in the Black community. The African American community does not really see disability rights as one of the top issues that faces the community as a whole. Thus, people with disabilities in the African American community are largely overlooked and seen as a burden.
African Americans with disabilities also are more likely to have a dangerous encounter with law enforcement. Why? Because many disabilities are not always visible to the naked eye so untrained law enforcement officials might handle the situation in a dangerous manner.
There are some solutions I think will improve the lives of people with disabilities in the African American community and society as a whole. One of the first things we need is better access to healthcare resources. Medicaid and Medicare funding needs to be increased to better support people with disabilities in all communities, but especially in the African American community. We need better access to affordable and accessible housing. We need improved job training programs and services to help people find meaningful and gainful employment.
We also need to do a better job of training law enforcement officials on how to support people with disabilities, particularly in the African American community. Having a mental health practitioner respond to certain 911 calls instead of police, as they are better trained to deal with certain issues, as well as access to better transportation would be huge in leveling the playing field. These are things we should be doing right now to help improve the lives of people with disabilities in this country, especially people in the African American community.
African American issues don't just affect the African American community; these issues affect American society as a whole. It's up to all of us to promote inclusion in our lives every day. Be the change you want to see.

Harrington HealthCare System Ramps up Return to Normal Services with Coronavirus Protection Measures in Place
SOUTHBRIDGE, MA – As the number of new coronavirus cases in Massachusetts begins to decline, Harrington HealthCare System (HHS) is encouraging patients to return for care at service locations across its system, with additional new infection prevention measures designed specifically to protect against the COVID-19 virus now in place.
"Patient safety is always our first priority and it will continue to be as we return to a pre-pandemic level of services in our outpatient and ancillary service centers as well as all Harrington Physician Services offices over the next several weeks," said HHS President and CEO Ed Moore.
"We want our patients to know that we've put extra measures in place to protect them so that they feel safe in receiving the routine, preventive and ongoing care that they need," Moore said. "Temporary restrictions and suspension of some non-essential services was necessary at the start of the pandemic, but now that the spread of the virus is slowing and protocols have been developed that are effective in protecting patients, it's important that people resume normal healthcare activities, especially those with chronic conditions."
Moore says the healthcare system has implemented the latest COVID-19 cleaning and disinfecting protocols, meeting and even exceeding the guidelines published by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), across all of its facilities.
Those protocols include increased environmental services staffing, more frequent cleaning of high traffic areas such as elevators, registration areas and waiting rooms, and increased detailed cleaning of all exam rooms and inpatient rooms with hospital-grade, CDC-approved disinfectants.
Specialized disinfection technology including the use of UV light sterilizers, air scrubbers and disinfectant fogger devices is also in use, providing efficient and effective disinfection while posing no harm to the environment, staff, patients or the public.
Moore says that in addition to these additional disinfection measures; routine screening for COVID-19 symptoms is being performed at all outpatient care locations and Harrington Physician Services offices. Patients who have non-emergent symptoms that suggest possible infection with COVID-19 will be instructed to stay home and take advantage of Harrington's new Telehealth service to receive care from home, when possible.
At both the Southbridge and Webster Emergency Departments of Harrington Hospital, additional protocols are in place to safely care for all patients, including those with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 infection.
We are finalizing implementation plans for curbside triage at the Southbridge Emergency Department, in an effort to avoid patient interaction in the waiting room. Negative air pressure rooms are in place throughout the hospital to remove airborne particles from COVID positive patient rooms via air ducts. In addition, staff will continues to adhere to heightened and stringent protocols for the use of personal protective equipment (PPE).
"Even as cases of coronavirus decline, we want our patients to know that our vigilance in protecting them from the virus at our facilities will not," Moore said. "Our goal is to assure our patients that they can safely return to receiving all the care they need from us moving forward. We certainly do not want our patients to become more ill, or have a chronic condition exacerbated, as a result of delaying care for fear of contracting the virus. We have always been here to keep you safe and healthy, that has not, and will not, change no matter what comes our way."
Harrington HealthCare System is a comprehensive regional healthcare system serving more than 25 communities across south central Massachusetts and northeastern Connecticut. The system includes Harrington Hospital in Southbridge, Harrington HealthCare at Webster and three additional major medical office buildings: Harrington HealthCare at Charlton, Harrington HealthCare at 169, also in Charlton, and Harrington HealthCare at Spencer; Harrington Physician Services, our primary care and multi-specialty physician group; UrgentCare Express at Harrington in Charlton and Oxford; The Cancer Center at Harrington in Southbridge, and the region's largest Behavioral Health programs for mental health and substance use.

Dr. Saumya Mehta, MD is a family medicine specialist in Fort Mill, SC. She specializes in family medicine.
She spent almost no time with me. I didn't have a chance to describe what's going on. She was distracted. When my insurance was cancelled, she would not allow me to pay out of pocket to follow up.
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Saumya Mehta, MD?
Great doctor, she has a wonderful staff that will go the extra mile to help. They are very quick with responses.
Compassionate, kind and very knowledgeable. Dr. Saumya Mehta goes above and beyond in providing healthcare for me & my family for several years. Wonderful staff as well!
Amazing doc and so happy she is near us! She is so thorough, kind, and seems to really enjoy taking care of people- can't say that about my other doctors. Highly recommend if you live in the Baxter area, although I have friends who come see her from several towns away!

I enjoy hitting the road and going to courts all over middle Tennessee. But, at the same time, it can be disconcerting to go to court in a new county, which generally has its own Local Rules and customs of practice. No matter how long you've been practicing, you never want to embarrass yourself in front of a foreign court.
So, I'm starting a "Tour of Tennessee" blog series, which discusses the different Courts that I go to, along with some tips and tricks for appearances.
First stop, Rutherford County General Sessions Court. Here is a link to the General Sessions Court's website, which has updated, good information about the Court, including phone number, address, and Clerk information.
Note that the Rutherford County Courts, including General Sessions, post a variety of their dockets online. Be sure to print out a copy of the docket before you go to court.
Their Local Rules are also posted online, and read those before you go.
The Court does not allow "indefinite" continuances. Under Local Rule 5.01, the Court only allows continuances of less than 60 days.
The Court will only allow 3 continuances, absent good cause.
The Court caps attorney fees at 25%, unless good cause is shown.
The Judge, Larry Brandon, is sharp, both in his legal acumen, as well as his wit and the way he runs the Courtroom. Stay on his good side by being early, paying attention, and reading the Local Rules before you go.
Seriously, that's important: stay on his good side across the board.
Many Clerks are liberal and let you use any old Civil Warrant forms, but, if you're in doubt about your form, be sure to use the official Civil Warrant forms from the Rutherford County General Sessions Clerk. Using the standard form is an important part of staying on the Judge's and the Clerk's good side.
On street parking is plentiful all around the Courthouse, and there are a number free lots available.
General Sessions Court takes place on the third floor of the Courthouse. The General Sessions Clerk is on the first floor.
The security line can get long, particularly if you're running late. Be prepared to remove watches, belts, and other metal items. Attorneys can purchase "pre-screened" pass cards for $5, which allow you to by-pass security. If you go there a lot, keep that in mind.
The elevator gets backed up, and, if you're running late, head to the stairs in the back of the building.
Judge Brandon starts promptly, at 9AM.
It's about a 45 minute drive from downtown Nashville, so give yourself an hour.
Cases are generally called in batches, organized by the Plaintiff's attorney's name, meaning all of an attorney's cases are generally bundled together and called at the same time (and then that attorney is allowed time to go to the hall and review the matters or write them up).
Rutherford County General Sessions Court is an active court, often with a large number of cases (40-50) set on one docket. Be early, be prepared, and read the Local Rules, and your court appearance will go fine.

Love it! I just bought a spiced pumpkin pie scented candle (Better Homes and Gardens brand) from Walmart that smells a lot like b&bw for about 6 bucks. But…I LOVE the real deal! and I LOVE when they do 2 for $22!!
mmmm, I'm sure your candle must smell delicious! I love candles from Bath & Body Works but I only buy them when they are on sale!
Hey. I was there yesterday and almost bought the same sweet cinnamon candle. I stocked up on the soaps too.
Mmm…pumpkin latte lotion!! Sounds delicious!! 😉 😉 What great deals!! Amazing scents and Bosco is a cutie!!
Oooh I'm curious about the Pumpkin Latte Toasted Marshmallow Body Cream! Is it obnoxiously sweet, or does it actually smell good?
They have all the best stuff ever. I did the candle deal a couple months ago and those suckers last a long time and give off such great scents! A colleague gave me an apple-scented foamy soap that I put in my classroom and the kids love the smell when we use it. You can smell it throughout the room.
I have that pecan hand soap in my bathroom. A word of warning–when you use it, you can smell it throughout your bathroom.Smells like breakfast…YUM!

'Marvelous Mrs Maisel': Zachary Levi Fast-Talks About Joining Amy Sherman-Palladino's Fast-Talking Club (Video)
Prime Video star also tells TheWrap about becoming Midge's love interest in Season 2
Jennifer Maas | December 7, 2018 @ 1:56 PM	Last Updated: December 7, 2018 @ 3:21 PM
If you've managed to binge the second season of "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" since it dropped late Tuesday, then you've already discovered series newcomer Zachary Levi is a natural with rapid-fire dialogue. And that skill has earned the Season 2 star his stripes as a new member of Amy Sherman-Palladino's fast-talking club.
The "Maisel" creator and her husband, writer/director Daniel Palladino, are known for writing quick, witty banter for their characters, and Levi's Benjamin — a Jewish doctor introduced as a new love interested for Midge (Rachel Brosnahan) in the Prime Video comedy's second installment — is no exception.
"I think I'm pretty good at the rapid-fire speech. You know, when I don't stumble over my own tongue, which is easy enough to do," Levi told TheWrap in an interview Wednesday.

Levi says, "Amy and Dan and that writers' room, they write just excellent material" and notes there is definitely a particular way that they want that material delivered on screen.
"Not only is it rapid-fire, but they want you to be word perfect as well," Levi said. "And sometimes the way that they would word things was just really — I don't know, it felt very counter-intuitive to the way I would word it."
The actor says the duo were "collaborative" and open to letting him do what he needed to do so he could remember it all — and ended up nailing it on screen.

"I mean, look, I'm fast-talking right now!" he said. (Which he was.)
Benjamin and Midge meet about halfway through Season 2, when both of their families are staying in the Catskills for the summer and their mothers try to set them up.
"It's a slow burn, you know? Because she's very bossy, and Benjamin's just not having it," Levi said. "People have kind of likened the character to a Mr. Darcy archetype, and I think that's actually a really good, classic way to explain him. And he's a progressively-minded guy, particularly for the late 1950s. He doesn't want just some doting housewife; he wants somebody that challenges him. And Midge turns out to be quite a challenge… as she is to most of the people in her life."

Q: Taylor expansion of a vector field on manifold In my work I have a need for some kind of analogue of Taylor expansion of a vector field on Riemannian manifold $\mathcal{M}$. I came to such an expression:
$$
F(\operatorname{exp}_p(v)) = \operatorname{d}\operatorname{exp}_p \vert_{v} \Big( F(p) + \nabla_{p}{F}v + \frac{1}{2}\nabla_{p}^{2}{F}(v, v) + o(||{v}||_p^2) \Big),
$$
where $v \in B_r(0) \subset T_p\mathcal{M}$, $B_r(0)$ maps on $\mathcal{M}$ through $\operatorname{exp}_p$ diffeomorphically,  $\nabla$ is the Levi-Civita connection, $\nabla_pF(v) = \nabla_vF$ for any vector $v$ from $T_p\mathcal{M}$. I haven't seen this formula anywhere in several papers/books on Riemannian geometry I've read and it made me think I've done some mistake while deriving this formula.
Here is what I've done: consider function
$$\tilde{F}(v) = \operatorname{d exp}^{-1}_{p} \vert_{\operatorname{exp}(v)} \circ F \circ \operatorname{exp}_p(v).$$
It is a function from $T_p\mathcal{M}$ to $T_p\mathcal{M}$, so we can use standart Taylor formula for expansion around $0$:
$$\tilde{F}(v) = \tilde{F}(0) + \operatorname{d}\tilde{F} \vert_{0}(v) + \operatorname{d}^2\tilde{F} \vert_{0}(v, v) + o(||v||_p^2).$$ Now we'll show that $\operatorname{d}\tilde{F}\vert_{0} = \nabla_pF$. By the chain rule we have
$$\operatorname{d}\tilde{F}\vert_{0} = \operatorname{d}\big(\operatorname{d exp}^{-1}_{p} \vert_{\operatorname{exp_p}(0)}\big)\vert_{F \circ \operatorname{exp_p}(0)} \circ \operatorname{d}F \vert_{\operatorname{exp_p}(0)} \circ \operatorname d \operatorname{exp_p}  \vert_{0}.$$
Since $\operatorname{d} \operatorname{exp_p}  \vert_{0} = \operatorname{Id}$ and since by invere function theorem $\operatorname{d exp}_p^{-1} \vert_{\exp_p(0)} = (\operatorname{d exp}_p \vert_{0})^{-1} = \operatorname{Id}^{-1} = \operatorname{Id}$, we have
$$\operatorname{d}\tilde{F} \vert_{0} = \operatorname{d}F\vert_{exp_p(0)} = \operatorname{d}F \vert_{p}.$$
As I understand, $\operatorname{d}F \vert_p = \nabla_pF$ (this is the point of my doubts). Therefore, $\operatorname{d}^{i}F \vert_p = \nabla^{i}_pF$. So,
$$\operatorname{d exp}^{-1}_{p} \vert_{\operatorname{exp}(v)} \circ F \circ \operatorname{exp}_p(v) = \tilde{F}(0) + \nabla_pF(v) + \nabla^2_pF(v, v) + o(||v||^2_p).$$ After using inverse function theorem and equality $\tilde{F}(0)=F(p)$ we get first expression. So I have following questions: is this formula wrong and if yes, where am I wrong and can someone tell me some source where analogous result is derived?
UPDATE:
I've found at least one mistake in above formulas (which may be the cause of absence of curvature tensor mentioned by Yuri in comments). It is the wrong use of the chain rule. Since $\operatorname{d exp}_p^{-1} \vert_{v}$ depends on $v$, differential of $\tilde{F}$ should look like this I guess (by the analogy with $\mathbb{R}^n$ case):
$$\operatorname{d}\tilde{F}\vert_{0} = \operatorname{d}h\vert_{0} \circ F \circ \operatorname{exp_p(0)} + h(0) \circ \operatorname{d}F \vert_{\operatorname{exp_p}(0)} \circ \operatorname d \operatorname{exp_p}  \vert_{0},$$
where h  = $\operatorname{d exp}_p^{-1} \vert_{v}$. But this is only a guess, I cannot justify it using properties of $\nabla$. I know that covariant derivative obeys Leibniz's rule on tensor product, I also know that it commutes with contraction, but I can't see how it helps here. I thought it was better to open dedicated question for this: Chain rule with covariant derivative.

Equal Pay in Soccer
Editor's note: We couldn't be more proud of one of our teammates, Isaac Rose-Berman, who penned his first op-ed this week in USA Today: "How college students can bridge American divides: 'Study abroad' in Alabama or New York." Please give it a read, and share far and wide!
"The United States won its record fourth Women's World Cup title and second in a row, beating the Netherlands 2-0 Sunday night." AP News
"Three months before beginning their defense of their Women's World Cup title, American players escalated their legal dispute with the U.S. Soccer Federation over equal treatment and pay. Players filed a federal discrimination lawsuit against the federation… alleging ongoing 'institutionalized gender discrimination' that includes unequal pay with their counterparts on the men's national team." AP News
From the Left
The left finds the disparities in pay to be deeply problematic.
"[The] close match against the otherwise undefeated Netherlands, the reigning European champion, is proof of this truth in women's soccer: Invest in it and the trophies will come. Just a decade ago, the best women soccer players in the Netherlands didn't even have teams to play on. There was no professional league in the country for women until 2007 and even in the youth system, many stars were left to play on boys' teams. Until the 1970s women were banned from playing soccer by the Dutch federation (England and Brazil had similar laws in place for years). But since the Netherlands was forced by UEFA to field and pay a women's team, the program has flourished…
"With multiple soccer powerhouses — especially in Europe — finally putting money into their women's sides, building up domestic leagues and national teams at once, in another four years, the U.S. is going to have an even harder fight to stay on top… Some 1 billion people tuned in to the Women's World Cup this year. That's roughly one in every eight people on the planet… [FIFA] can no longer ignore the profit potential of women's soccer, as it has for decades, or suggest women can't compete, aren't worth watching, or aren't worth paying. And if the U.S. Soccer Federation wants another win from the women in the future, it will need to pay up, or soon be left behind."
Maggie Mertens, The Atlantic
"The rallying cry has been 'equal pay for equal work' – but in fact the women have done more work. In a typical calendar year, they play more often than the men, to the point where [outside of the World Cup] the women bring in more money from games, the biggest single source of revenue for each team. That shoots a harpoon into the heart of the argument that the men should be paid more because they generate more money."
Caitlin Murray, The Guardian
"Sportswear giant Nike reported the U.S. women's team home jersey has become the No. 1 soccer jersey — male or female — ever sold on the company's website in one season. According to the Wall Street Journal, the national women's team's games have generated more revenue than the men's since their World Cup victory in 2015. This year, U.S. viewers watched the women's team victory in record numbers. Despite this, FIFA will pay female World Cup teams a total of just $30 million, a meager award compared with the $440 million the 2022 men's teams will take home in prizes… The U.S. women's soccer team has more than earned equal pay."
Editorial Board, Washington Post
Some posit that while "much of the debate about the pay gap has focused on revenue… revenue is the wrong measuring stick. United States Soccer is a nonprofit, exempted from taxation because it serves a social purpose: 'To make soccer, in all its forms, a pre-eminent sport in the United States.' It should be obvious to the people who run the federation that the women's team is fulfilling that mission at least as well as the men's team…
"The women's soccer team, like other national teams, also represents the United States. The women who wear the nation's colors are ambassadors on an international stage. Their performances inform perceptions of the United States… The federation is making a statement about America by treating those women as second-class citizens. It has an opportunity to make a very different statement by rectifying the situation. Players should get the same rewards for the same achievements, without regard to gender."
Editorial Board, New York Times
"The main question about the strike isn't moral or even legal—it's strategic. Soleimani was a supremely powerful leader of a state apparatus, with his own cult of personality, but he was not a terror kingpin. His death doesn't decapitate anything. He had the blood of tens of thousands of people—overwhelmingly fellow Muslims—on his hands, but he was only the agent of a government policy that preceded him and will continue without him…The only reason to kill Soleimani is to enter a new war that the United States can win… [Yet] No one seems to have thought past the action itself…
"What would [a] war [with Iran] look like? How will Iran fight it? How will the U.S. respond? What credible allies will we have, after Trump's trashing of the nuclear deal thoroughly alienated Europe? Who will believe any intelligence about Iran's actions and intentions from an administration that can't function without telling lies?…What is our war aim, and how can it be aligned with Trump's obvious desire to be rid of any entanglement in the region? What will happen if Jerusalem becomes a target and Israel enters the conflict? What will the American people accept by way of sacrifice, when nothing has prepared them for this? There's no sign that anyone in power, least of all the president, has even asked these questions, let alone knows how to answer them."
George Packer, The Atlantic
"By declaring that the United States will respond with airstrikes to any attacks on American targets or assets, Mr. Trump is drawing a bright red line that Iran cannot cross. And yet, Iran relies on a network of proxy actors from Yemen, Syria, Iraq and Lebanon. Must they all respect Mr. Trump's red line? There are plenty of hotheads in those proxy forces that will be incensed by the assassination, the same way young men with weapons and minimal discipline often are… Mr. Trump can't keep an entire region from crossing his red line, making violent conflict all the more likely if the president holds to it…
"It is crucial that influential Republican senators like Lindsey Graham, Marco Rubio and Mitch McConnell remind Mr. Trump of his promise to keep America out of foreign quagmires and keep Mr. Trump from stumbling further into war with Iran."
Others argue that "Biden was almost the only one on the stage who talked like a normal person. There was a point near the end of the debate when he was talking about getting men involved in stopping domestic violence and he said that we need to keep 'punching' at it… I knew that the twitterati and the analysts would tut tut. Ol' Joe is just out of touch! He doesn't know you can't use words like that. Meanwhile, every non-political junkie watching the debate thought there was nothing wrong with this. Biden was just using ordinary language, not worrying too much if it was fully approved by the woke brigade."
Kevin Drum, Mother Jones
From the Right
The right argues that any disparities in pay are due to differences in popularity and thus not problematic.
"One of the major factors that separate men's sports and women's is a not so little thing called revenue… Last year, the men's World Cup in Russia generated more than $6 billion in revenue; the participating teams shared about $400 million. That is less than 7 percent of overall revenue. Meanwhile, the 2019 Women's World Cup made somewhere in the region of $131 million, doling out $30 million, well more than 20 percent of collected revenue, to the participating teams."
John Glynn, The Federalist
"The winning men's [World Cup] players received only about four times as much as the winning female players, despite bringing in over 45 times as much revenue… The fact that the women win more [than the US men] is irrelevant, as they play in a different league against a different level of competition. It's safe to assume the U.S. women would have trouble competing at a similar level as the men. It would be like comparing the earnings of a great Arena League football team to those of a bad NFL team."
A.G. Hamilton, National Review
Dated But Relevant: "The U.S. women's team is one of the best women's teams in the world… But in 2017, an under-15 professional men's academy team… beat them 5 to 2. Yes, that's right: Teenage boys beat the women's top players in the world, and the result wasn't even close. That's not necessarily the women's team's fault, and in fact, they didn't take it as cause for alarm about the team's abilities. The loss did not mean they the U.S. women weren't highly skilled. It does illustrate that even the best women's soccer in the world doesn't feature the same level of speed, size, strength, and skill as men's soccer…
"Almost half the world watched the men's 2018 World Cup, with nearly 3.6 billion total viewers tuning in to watch some part of the tournament… during the women's last World Cup in 2015, 764 million viewers tuned in for some portion of the tournament. This is quite good, but it still pales in comparison to the men's tournament's audience. Seeing as professional sports is an entertainment industry, it's not at all unfair — let alone sexist — to pay teams more if they bring in larger audiences. With an audience five times as large, the men's World Cup is simply a bigger affair."
Brad Polumbo, Washington Examiner
"It has been reported that the U.S. women's team has been generating more game revenue than the U.S. men the past couple of years. This is telling, although not quite in the way that those who allege pay discrimination think. The women are celebrities and cultural heroes, winners of four Olympic gold medals and four World Cups. The men are nobodies who failed to qualify for last year's World Cup. Yet from 2016 to 2018, according to the Wall Street Journal, the women barely out-earned the men, $50.8 million to $49.9 million."
Rich Lowry, National Review
"Does the U.S. Soccer Federation have an obligation to 'correct' the inequities perpetuated by international market forces?… At the end of the day, although female athletes might be frustrated at the slow pace of change, it's ultimately most beneficial to women that we recognize the important differences between men's and women's sports. Men's natural physical advantages may often help them attract a bigger fan base, but they also make it necessary to maintain sex-separated sports leagues in order for women to have fair opportunities to compete."
Hadley Heath Manning, The Hill
"If a dozen drones or missiles can do the kind of damage to the world economy as did those fired on Saturday—shutting down about 6 percent of world oil production—imagine what a U.S.-Iran-Saudi war would do to the world economy. In recent decades, the U.S. has sold the Saudis hundreds of billions of dollars of military equipment. Did our weapons sales carry a guarantee that we will also come and fight alongside the kingdom if it gets into a war with its neighbors?… the nation does not want another war. How we avoid it, however, is becoming difficult to see. John Bolton may be gone from the West Wing, but his soul is marching on."
Patrick Buchanan, The American Conservative
Others note, "I'd hate to be a Democratic member of Congress trying to convince Joe Sixpack that this is a whole new ballgame. The transcript shows Trump being Trump and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky trying to ingratiate himself with the big dog by, for instance, mentioning that he stays at Trump hotels. Trump's conversation is typically scattershot, wandering all over the field, leaving a reasonable listener puzzled about what the takeaways are supposed to be…
"I think Joe Sixpack's response is going to be a hearty shrug. After all that has emerged about Trump so far, his approval rating is closely tracking Obama's approval at the same point in his presidency. To get Mr. Sixpack's attention you are going to have to do better than this."
Kyle Smith, National Review
"President Trump should be happy. As much as Warren is articulate, obviously intelligent, and energetically supported by Democrats, she would also be far easier to defeat than Joe Biden… Considering Trump's economy, the president is well placed to defeat Warren."
Tom Rogan, Washington Examiner
A libertarian's take
"The fans who avidly followed the men's tournament certainly weren't doing anything wrong. And it's hard to argue that each of them had a moral obligation to be exactly as interested in women's soccer. Even if we could stop them from watching the men more than the women, should we?…
"It's tempting to answer that the fan choices aren't innocent, they're sexist. But since we can't peek into their hearts, to say that definitively, we'd have to assume that men's greater speed, strength and endurance definitely make nodifference to the sport's quality. Fair enough, but then why do fans prefer to watch Megan Rapinoe play instead of the sedentary elderly who could presumably use some exercise? Alternatively, maybe pay should be equalized precisely because biology is unfair. But that seems to be an argument for curbing the pay of all top-level athletes, who have to hit the genetic lottery just to get on the field. It might be easier to focus on the distributions across society at large, rather than every individual industry, especially when fundamental biology is in play."

Sudbury's Savard headed to Dakota County to play baseball
Presented by Auto Depot
Keith Dempsey For The Sudbury Star
Published on: August 20, 2018 | Last Updated: August 20, 2018 3:33 AM EDT

Dakota County Technical College's men's baseball team plays its home games in a large baseball field.
"They like their kids to be able to run and hit into gaps," said Jean-Gilles Larocque.
That's why those in the baseball community in Sudbury believe Parker Savard — a local, speedy short stop, who this past season dressed for the Voyageurs U18 team — will fit in nicely with Dakota County.
That's where Savard will play in the near future, after he makes the move to Minnesota, the home of Dakota County.
"Their program is strong and they have a foundation of winning," said Savard, 18. "They've won consecutively, back-to-back, their regionals."
The infielder is familiar with the area, too. His uncle, former NHLer Andrew Brunette, lives in Minnesota, and Savard will be living with his relative and athletic mentor.
Savard leaves Wednesday for the Land of 10,000 Lakes, as the state has been dubbed, marking the first time he lives away from home.
"I'm excited," Savard said. "I'm a little nervous, but moving in with (Brunette and his family), it's like moving away from home, but not really."
Savard's first interaction with his new team's staff made quite the impact.
"We went there mid-July, checked the school, and I actually signed while I was down there."
He was that blown away by the program.
"It was how tight-knit the program is," he said. "The coaches were close together, joking around, stuff like that. It felt like Sudbury.
"I didn't know what to expect going in. I had seen pictures of the facilities, but the pictures didn't do justice in terms of what the school will do for me and my future."
Dakota County is the third most populous county in the U.S. state of Minnesota.
"I like that it's not overwhelming," Savard said. "It's a big city but also a small city at the same time. It's a lot like Canada because it is so close to Canada."
Regularly a shortstop, Savard will be moved to second or third base for Dakota County. It's a change in position he welcomes.
"I've played both those positions," Savard said. "I played second base all the way up until 18U. I'm familiar with both positions."
Larocque believes Savard will make the transition smoothly.
"He's a versatile player, runs well, can hit the ball gap-to-gap," said the Voyageurs coach. "The thing I like about him is his baseball IQ. And it's not just baseball IQ, he has a sports IQ. He adapts pretty quick. He's aware of all situations. All the nuances of the game, the hidden secrets or things people take for granted or don't know, he's the type of kid that picks up on that stuff."

Robinson Lake condo project raises concerns	 'Painting Sudbury with a new stroke'


On Friday, the university said the charges announced don alter the suspension of the hockey program, or the firing of its head coach.
decision followed our review of an independent investigator's report about the events in Thunder Bay, university spokeswoman Caroline Milliard said in a statement.
On Friday, Thunder Bay police, who had previously remained tight lipped on the case, released basic details of the incident.
university focus was not on whether a criminal offence had been committed or whether a conviction could be secured. The university focus was on whether the players behaviour met the standards that the university community is entitled to expect from those who have the privilege of wearing the university colours. university said that it was rebuilding its men varsity hockey program, with plans to hire a new coach and implement new behaviour guidelines.
Guillaume Donovan, 24, and David Foucher, 25, both of Gatineau, Que., were each charged with one count of sexual assault.
According to their team profiles, Donovan, who played as a forward, was in the university geography program, while Foucher, a defenceman, studied human kinetics.
work in actually being able to track down essentially as many people as possible from the hockey team or anyone connected to that hockey team in Ottawa, took quite a bit of leg work. And then of course there the logistics involved afterwards, reviewing the case so it was quite extensive. and Foucher have been released from custody and are set to appear in court in Thunder Bay on Sept. 30.
shadow cast by the allegations of misconduct has affected all members of the team, some unfairly, he had said, while adding that the university could not single out certain players as it was waiting for the police investigation to conclude.
The varsity hockey team was suspended in March after the university president announced a police investigation was underway into the alleged incident which took place when the University of Ottawa Gee Gees were Nike T Shirts For Men in Thunder Bay to play the team from Lakehead University.
investigation which involved police in Thunder Bay, Ottawa and even members of the RCMP.
by the university, which resulted in the firing of head coach Real Paiement and the suspension of the program through the 2014 2015 season.
The alleged assault involved a 21 year old female victim and allegedly took place in a hotel early on February 2, they said.
The news rattled the university students, particularly as it came just days after revelations of a sexually explicit online chat about the head of the student union.
Two former University of Ottawa hockey players were charged Friday after a lengthy police investigation into an alleged sexual assault which took place when the now suspended team was in Thunder Bay, Ont., for a game earlier this year.
Investigators also travelled to Ottawa in March to conduct interviews with members of the hockey program.
Certain members of the hockey team complained that they were being tarred by the scandal sparked by the action of a few individuals a situation that university president Allan Rock acknowledged in June.
Police, however, were only made aware of the incident on Feb 25, when a third party came forward with a complaint.
in Thunder Bay but these individuals had travelled from Ottawa, said Thunder Bay police spokesman Chris Adams.

Some of them took REGINA OTOKPA through their pains and anguish Contrary to the expectation of every civil servant to retire to a peaceful and comfortable life made easy by the provision of their retirement benefits on a monthly basis, after active service to their country, pensioners living within Abuja are not having life easy.

FCTA to revoke land allocation to institutions
September 26, 2017 September 25, 2017 Correspondents
The Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) may soon begin to review land allocations to government institutions and other stakeholders that have held unto land titles without any intention to start any tangible development on the land. The Minister of the FCT, Mallam Mohammed Bello, disclosed this in Abuja when the Commandant, National Defence College visited him. Bello stated that he might be forced to revoke the allocations already made without any effort to develop the space by the allottees.
