Razing of damaged house called "ongoing emergency."
By Joel Mathis·	 3/3/2014, 5:31 a.m.
The Star-Ledger reports: "Calling Hurricane Sandy-damaged homes that have not yet been torn down an "ongoing emergency," Gov. Chris Christie signed an executive order aimed at speeding up the process of razing unsafe properties. … The order gives the Community Affairs commissioner the authority to "commandeer Sandy-impacted eligible structures," as well as take possession of rights of way on any property needed to facilitate demolition. According to the governor's office, state code enforcement officials have been surveying private properties to identify homes that need to be razed. Property owners will be notified when that determination is made and then will have the opportunity to challenge it." The demolition program will be focused in Atlantic, Bergen, Cape May, Essex, Hudson, Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean, and Union counties.

Guidelines for recovery proceedings under GST
by CA Shivam Jaiswal in GST Circular Notification
The Principal Chief Commissioners / Chief Commissioners / Principal Commissioners / Commissioners of Central Tax (All)
The Principal Directors General / Directors General (All)
Madam/Sir,
Subject: Guidelines for recovery proceedings under the provisions of section 79 of the CGST Act, 2017 in cases covered under explanation to sub-section (12) of section 75 of the CGST Act, 2017—Reg.
1. Sub-section (12) of section 75 of the CGST Act, 2017 (hereinafter referred to as "the Act") provides that notwithstanding anything contained in section 73 or section 74 of the Act, where any amount of self-assessed tax in accordance with the return furnished under section 39 remains unpaid, either wholly or partly, or any amount of interest payable on such tax remains unpaid, the same shall be recovered under the provisions of section 79. An explanation has been added to subsection (12) of section 75 vide section 114 of the Finance Act, 2021 with effect from 01.01.2022 to clarify that "self-assessed tax" shall include the tax payable in respect of outward supplies, the details of which have been furnished under section 37, but not included in the return furnished under section 39.
2. Doubts are being raised by the trade and the field formations regarding modalities for initiation of the recovery proceedings under section 79 of the Act in the cases covered under the explanation to sub-section (12) of section 75 of the Act. In view of the above, the following guidelines are hereby issued with respect to the recovery proceedings under section 79 of the Act in such cases.
3.1 Sub-section (12) of section 75 of the Act is reproduced hereunder for reference:
"(12) Notwithstanding anything contained in section 73 or section 74, where any amount of self-assessed tax in accordance with a return furnished under section 39 remains unpaid, either wholly or partly, or any amount of interest payable on such tax remains unpaid, the same shall be recovered under the provisions of section 79.
Explanation. – For the purposes of this sub-section, the expression "self-assessed tax" shall include the tax payable in respect of details of outward supplies furnished under section 37, but not included in the return furnished under section 39."
From the perusal of the above provision, it is clear that where the tax payable in respect of details of outward supplies furnished by the registered person in GSTR-1, has not been paid through GSTR-3B return, either wholly or partly, or any amount of interest payable on such tax remains unpaid, then in such cases, the tax short paid on such self-assessed and thus self-admitted liability, and the interest thereon, are liable to be recovered under the provisions of section 79.
3.2 There may, however, be some cases where there may be a genuine reason for difference between the details of outward supplies declared in GSTR-1 and those declared in GSTR-3B. For example, the person may have made a typographical error or may have wrongly reported any detail in GSTR-1 or GSTR-3B. Such errors or omissions can be rectified by the said person in a subsequent GSTR-1/ GSTR-3B as per the provisions of sub-section (3) of section 37 or the provisions of sub-section (9) of section 39, as the case may be. There may also be cases, where a supply could not be declared by the registered person in GSTR-1 of an earlier tax period, though the tax on the same was paid by correctly reporting the said supply in GSTR-3B. The details of such supply may now be reported by the registered person in the GSTR-1 of the current tax period. In such cases, there could be a mis-match between GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B (liability reported in GSTR-1> tax paid in GSTR-3B) in the current tax period. Therefore, in all such cases, an opportunity needs to be provided to the concerned registered person to explain the differences between GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B, if any, and for short payment or non-payment of the amount of self-assessed tax liability, and interest thereon, before any action under section 79 of the Act is taken for recovery of the said amount.
3.3 Accordingly, where ever any such amount of tax, self-assessed by the registered person in his outward supply statement GSTR-1 is found to be short paid or not paid by the said person through his GSTR-3B return in terms of the provisions of sub-section (12) of section 75 of the Act, the proper officer may send a communication (with DIN, in terms of guidelines issued vide Circular No. 122/41/2019-GST dated 5th November 2019) to the registered person to pay the amount short paid or not paid, or to explain the reasons for such short payment or non-payment of self-assessed tax, within a reasonable time, as prescribed in the communication. If, the concerned person is able to justify the differences between GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B, or is able to explain the reasons of such short-payment or non-payment of tax, to the satisfaction of the proper officer, or pays the amount such short paid or not paid, then there may not be any requirement to initiate proceedings for recovery under section 79.
3.4 However, if the said registered person either fails to reply to the proper officer, or fails to make the payment of such amount short paid or not paid, within the time prescribed in the communication or such further period as may be permitted by the proper officer, then the proceedings for recovery of the said amount as per provisions of section 79 may be initiated by the proper officer. Further, where the said registered person fails to explain the reasons for such difference/ short payment of tax to the satisfaction of the proper officer, then the proper officer may proceed for recovery of the said amount as per provisions of section 79.
4. Difficulty, if any, in implementation of the above guidelines may please be brought to the notice of the Board. Hindi version would follow.

Adrenal fatigue was invented by a chiro so he could sell a cure. It is supposedly caused by chronic stress and "burnout" of the adrenal glands, and it's a common bogus explanation (see Cadegiani et al) for fibromyalgia and chronic widespread pain. At best, that's a simplistic guess; at worst, it's a great way to peddle false hope to fibromyalgia patients.

T Dog's Groovy Grab Bag
– Station swap: Raycom and Local TV are trading stations with each other and maybe one to be named later… Raycom has traded CBS affiliate WTVR in Richmond, Va. to Local TV for Fox affiliate WBRC-TV in Birmingham. Raycom, which is based in Alabama, will now have a presence in most of the state. Earlier, the Justice Department rejected Raycom's sale of WTVR to Sinclair Broadcasting after Sinclair planned to sell Fox affiliate WRLH-TV to a third party, but would continue to operate it.
Raycom had to sell WTVR after it purchased Jefferson-Pilot's TV stations, including cross-town rival NBC affiliate WWBT-TV, which it couldn't keep because of anti-trust regulations.
Previous owners for WBRC (who had past affiliations with NBC, CBS, and then ABC) included Storer, Taft, Great American, New World, and Fox itself. Local TV acquired WBRC in an eight station deal a year ago.
– WUSA-TV, the CBS affiliate in Washington, D.C., is dumping its low-rated weekend morning newscasts later this month and is replacing them with – you guessed it, infomercials. The station may also fill the slots with some local programming. Once the market's top-rated station in the 1980's (whose schedule at the time included The Oprah Winfrey Show and Wheel of Fortune), WUSA is now in fourth place overall, including news.
– Turning back to the Windy City, WLS-TV reporter Dan Ponce has ditched his reporting gig to pursue a music gig. He's in a vocal group titled Straight No Chaser (yes, this is the name of the group.) Dan Ponce is the son on WTTW-TV's Chicago Tonight host Phil Ponce and the brother of WMAQ-TV reporter Anthony Ponce.
Dan is also an avid Simpsons fan. Let's hope he watched the episode (Bart Gets Famous) where Homer was attacked by a monkey while he was in an one-man band playing "Tighten Up"(or at least trying to.) Funny Stuff.

Renal fascia

Transverse plane through the kidneys, showing anterior and posterior renal fascia
fascia renalis
Anatomical terminology
[edit on Wikidata]
The renal fascia is a layer of connective tissue encapsulating the kidneys and the adrenal glands. It can be divided into:
The anterior renal fascia, also called Gerota's fascia (after Dimitrie Gerota)
The posterior renal fascia, also called Zuckerkandl's fascia or fascia retrorenalis
The renal fascia separates the adipose capsule of kidney from the overlying pararenal fat. The deeper layers below the renal fascia are, in order, the adipose capsule (or perirenal fat), the renal capsule and finally the parenchyma of the renal cortex.[1] The spaces about the kidney are typically divided into three compartments: the perinephric space and the anterior and posterior pararenal spaces.
1 Anterior renal fascia
2 Posterior renal fascia
3 Additional images
Anterior renal fascia
Anterior attachment: Passes anterior to the kidney, renal vessels, abdominal aorta and inferior vena cava and fuses with the anterior layer of the renal fascia of the opposite kidney.
Posterior attachment: Fuses with the psoas fascia and side of the body of the vertebrae.
Superior attachment: The anterior and posterior layers fuse at the upper pole of the kidney and then split to enclose the adrenal gland. At the upper part of the adrenal gland, they again fuse to form the suspensory ligament of the adrenal gland and fuse with the diaphragmatic fascia.
Inferior attachment: The layers do not fuse. The posterior layer descends downwards and fuses with the iliac fascia. The anterior layer blends with the connective tissue of the iliac fossa.
The anterior fascia and posterior fascia fuse laterally to form the lateroconal fascia which fuses with the transverse fascia.[2]
In front of the fascia anterior to the perinephric space (also known as Toldt's fascia) is the anterior pararenal space, which contains the pancreas, ascending and descending colon, and second through fourth parts of the duodenum. The fascia posterior to the perinephric space was named Zuckerkandl's fascia. Posterior to this lies the posterior paranephric space which does not contain any abdominal organs.[citation needed]
Posterior renal fascia
Zuckerkandl's fascia or fascia retrorenalis is a fibrous sheath covering the posterior side of the kidney. It constitutes the posterior layer of the renal fascia and was first described by Emil Zuckerkandl in 1883.[3]

The Masked Scammer
Movie review by John Sooja, Common Sense Media
True crime docu about con artist has strong language.
NR 2022 90 minutes
Watch or buy
The parents' guide to what's in this movie.
Parents need to know that The Masked Scammer is a documentary about Gilbert Chikli, a scam artist who made off with over 100 million Euros between 2005 and 2017. This incredible story reveals how Chikli went about scamming CEOs, executives, government officials, and other "elites." This documentary traces the various scams and schemes Chikli committed, with many soundbites, voice/phone recordings, and examples of the ways he was able to convince people to hand over millions. Some footage of the 2005 London bombing attacks and the 2015 Paris attacks show non-gory images of the aftermath. A man tells a story of how his wife killed herself. Strong language includes: "f--k," "f--ked," "s--t," and "ass." Adults smoke cigarettes often.
What's the Story?
In THE MASKED SCAMMER, a man scams wealthy people, corporations, governments, and "elites" for over 100 million Euros from 2005 and 2017. But with the police and Interpol after him, will he escape authorities?
In this true crime documentary, the sheer audacity of Gilbert Chikli and the nature of his scams themselves are enough to carry the film. Indeed, The Masked Scammer profiles the unbelievable boldness of Chikli and his ability to convince people with charm, confidence, and urgency. Chikli's master idea is truly brazen and resembles more an idea found in a fictional movie rather than reality. But there it is in all its glory: Chikli wearing a silicone mask of the French Minister of Defense (at the time) Jean-Yves Le Drian, impersonating him, and telling his victims to transfer money "for France" and to help "save hostages from terrorists."
The film is produced and delivered well. There is structure framing this tale of crime that traces Chikli's early life, first girlfriend and accomplice, and all the way to his current ex-wife and his eventual imprisonment. The only major gripe for some viewers, however, might be in the stylization and tone of documentary. In being so focused on delivering a pacey, hip, modern, and exciting tone, the film sometimes risks seeming like it glamorizes Chikli and his crimes more than it probably wants to. What gets lost amidst reveling in Chikli's "genius" are all the victims' stories, how many of them lost their jobs, careers, credibility, and reputations.
Families can talk about true crime in documentaries. Do you think The Masked Scammer glorifies crime at all? Why or why not?
Why were Chikli's scams were so successful? Do you think these kinds of scams would be possible today? Why or why not?
Chikli's ex-partners claim that they are the real victims. Do you agree? Why or why not?

Research and edited, Jim Allison.
The Virginia Colony, settled by many younger sons of landed and titled Englishmen, and the rest of the South, with similar colonists, tended to carry on many upper-class ideals. Land being the English basis of wealth, it was common to decentralize onto large estates where the master was virtually undisputed, and at the same time to make political unions joining land-holding families. Throughout the South, the very few women available for much of the early years meant they had ample opportunities for extramarital relationships and could expect to survive discovery because they would surely be welcomed by the new man if rejected by the old.
New England, on the other hand, was more urban, with the population settled in small towns around the church. The population came from urban centers in England and vigorously espoused the newer ideas of Protestantism. In this view the role of the family was central. The family became a miniature commonwealth, headed by the husband, and responsible for bringing up godly souls. On a larger scale the community had the same responsibility to police individual and corporate behavior. Solitary living was forbidden in many areas, forcing all members of society into close quarters where they were subject to scrutiny by their peers. Privacy as we know it was not held important, especially if its violation discovered some moral hazard to the community. Witnesses in court repeatedly recount peeping through walls, listening at doors, and even tearing boards up and doors off hinges to afford a better view of illicit behavior.

Burt Kerr Todd (né en  à Pittsburgh; fils d'un industriel et banquier de cette ville, et décédé en avril 2006 à l'âge de 81 ans) était un citoyen américain qui s'était targué d'avoir été le premier Américain à avoir visité le royaume du Bhoutan, en 1951, à la suite d'une invitation de l'une de ses condisciples à l'université d'Oxford, qui allait devenir l'épouse du souverain de ce pays. Il se peut en fait que son épouse, Frances "Susie" Hays Todd, qui l'accompagnait lors de leur voyage de noces, ait véritablement été la première Américaine à visiter le Bhoutan. Son récit de leur périple pour atteindre, depuis l'Inde, le Bhoutan, a été publié, en décembre 1952, par le mensuel National Geographic.

Burt Todd est à l'origine d'un programme d'émissions philatéliques régulières, débuté en 1962, qui, de par l'originalité des supports (soie, acier, plastique, or, etc.), allaient contribuer à populariser mondialement ce royaume et aider à le doter d'infrastructures modernes (des routes, une centrale électrique, etc., et sa première salle de cinéma). La toute première émission de timbres postaux du royaume remontait à 1954 mais les timbres conçus par Burt Todd allaient populariser le pays au-delà des cercles philatélistes. Son initiative a été poursuivie par l'une de ses deux filles, Frances Todd Stewart, qui, en 2008, à l'occasion du couronnement de Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck, cinquième monarque de la dynastie dont cette année marquera le centenaire, a conçu un CD-ROM doté d'une valeur faciale et ayant cours dans les postes du pays, lequel contiendra notamment des fichiers vidéo.

Burt Todd était considéré comme une sorte d'aventurier des temps modernes et il s'était même auto-proclamé souverain d'un état consistant en un récif de corail au large des îles Tonga (selon ses dires, une expédition maritime aurait rétabli la souveraineté du royaume de Tonga sur cet îlot inhabité, mais l'anecdote n'a jamais été corroborée).

Il a aussi introduit la production de rhum aux îles Fiji et le conditionnement d'algues marines à Singapour. L'une de ses nombreuses entreprises consista à persuader les marajas indiens de vendre leurs Rolls-Royce, souvent aménagées spécialement selon leur desiderata, à des collectionneurs.

Georgian Style Home Plans – There are many different factors to consider if you are starting the process of creating your own home. It's rather a demanding period, of course. It involves saving money and ensuring you can continue to pay all the necessary bills later on. There may be some headaches as to which style you decide upon as well ultimately. If you are going to end up being living with another person, then you may disagree which best suits you. Should you go for something modern, or even more traditional such as cottage home plans? How many rooms in the event you include, such as for example bathrooms and bedrooms? Do you want there to be a open spaces really, or to have each room a little more closed off? It all depends upon your way of living.
If you want others to get a good impression over you and how you were able to make your home a relaxing place to stay, you should make house programs and produce some improvements every once in awhile. It isn't really required that you continuously buy new things just to make your home more beautiful. You can do a little home improvement without costing an individual penny. You can rearrange things and just use your creativeness simply. The time should come when things need to be replaced and the home furniture to be changed.
Also, what kind of person are you? Would you like a lot of space to decorate and really make your own, or would you favour it be simpler where one can just consist of some furniture and a few other items and be perfectly fine? Depending on which kind represents you, you can alter plans or ideas to reflect that in the overall design. So if you have your French country home plans all prepared, you can return back and make small changes that better live up to your goals of your liveable space. It can make a complete lot of difference to do so.
Before buying for furniture, consider first what type of furniture you want to have and keep carefully the same as if you have decided to purchase a special form of self-defense weapons like the various tasers. Assess all of your fixtures if they already need alternative or repairs. Remember that too much furniture will make a available room to become small and cluttered. So before buying, check if you still have a supplementary space and ensure that the fixture that you'll purchase fits well on the extra space. You can measure the area and the required furniture that you'll buy that way it'll really fit.

Plumbing issues will always occur without any warning. This is why it is crucial that you find the right plumbing company that will assist you with your plumbing emergency. Finding the right plumbing company can be a bit challenging a times as there are most companies out there that can offer these services. However being well informed on what factors to consider you can be sure to choose the ideal company. Enlisted below are a few elements that you should be mindful of when choosing the right company like Sherwood's best remodeling company.
First and foremost you need to consider licensing. Before you choose a company that will help you with your plumbing emergency, it is wise to confirm that the company has proper licensing. The law requires that every plumbing company should have a certified license for it to offer its services. A plumbing company with proper licensing gives you an assurance that you will be receiving services from competent and most qualified personnel.
On to the second tip you should consider how experienced a particular company is. Before you hire a plumbing company make sure you know how long the company has been in operation. Most companies that have been in operation for the longest time is due to offering quality services to its clients. Furthermore hiring an experienced plumbing company you can be sure that all you plumbing related issues will be taken care of leaving no stone unturned.
On to the third tip you need to get references from individuals who have received these services. As a client before you decide to settle for a plumbing company make sure that you have gotten references from the most trusted sources. You can also go through reviews and testimonials from earlier clients so that you can determine if the company is up to task. A company that has positive reviews from all the clients is worth considering as you can be certain that you will also get the best services.
The other element worth considering is warranty or guarantee, find out more by clicking here. The wisest move as a home owner will be hiring a plumbing company that offers guarantee for the services that they offer. As a client the last thing that you would want is paying twice for the same services. If a plumbing company is genuine about the services that it offers it will always re do the services for free if they were not up to standard. As a client you ought to find out how long the plumbing company offers its warranty to its clients before you settle for it. A plumbing company that offers warranty and guarantee for its services is worth hiring as you can be certain that you will be getting the best services.

She said she feared for her life, so she left her grandson at a Child Protective Services headquarters

JACKSON, Miss. (WLBT/Gray News) – Honda Collier admits that she did it. Yes, she left her grandson at the Child Protective Services headquarters right in the middle of Jackson, Mississippi. She will even tell you that as she drove away, she didn't so much as look back.
Hours before this deed, she had written a manifesto of sorts laying out her reasons for doing so.
"To whom it may concern, my name is Honda Collier," it says. "I've been taking care of Max since birth; adopted at 11 months. He's always been troubled. I've tried what I could to help him. He has been diagnosed with multiple mental disorders. Behavior has gotten worse. I am writing this letter to relinquish my rights... I can not handle him mentally or physically. I am scared for my life."
As the letter states, Collier had taken care of Max for most of his life. Her daughter, Max's mother, had largely been absent - leaving Collier to raise him, her only grandchild, mostly by herself.
She said she feared for her life, so she left her grandson at the CPS headquarters in Jackson, Mississippi.(WLBT)
What is also revealed in the letter are Max's mental disorders: multiple personality disorder, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder. He had been showing signs of these since childhood, Collier said. And, as she wrote, they had progressively gotten worse, so much so that Collier felt she could no longer care for him.
What followed for Collier was threats of imprisonment and an eventual warrant for her arrest.
The action she took is shocking to some. But if you were to ask Collier, it was a desperate, yet necessary, decision for both her safety and the safety of Max himself.
Collier is a native of Detroit, Michigan, has four children, and is 50 years old. After her children were grown, Collier wanted something different in her life. She said her last marriage had been "rough," and that she had always been a country girl.
Mississippi seemed like the right fit for her and her grandson, Max.
Before the pair moved to Mississippi, Collier officially adopted Max. That was five years ago. Since their move, Collier says she has made the trek to Detroit multiple times a month in order to get Max treatment for his disorders. This included seeing therapists and getting medication.
In one statement written by Max's therapist, which Collier provided to WLBT, the therapist wrote that Max was in need of "intense mental health services" and that Max "has a history of violence towards animals and people." The therapist suggested that Max be placed in a long-term mental facility.
The documents also showed that Max was on a multitude of prescription medications as of October 2021, including Catapres, a sedative, Trazodone, an antidepressant, Depakote, for his bipolar disorder, and Zyprexa, an antipsychotic to treat his schizophrenia.
Collier says she would try to get Max to socialize with other children when he was younger, but there would always be "an episode." This happened over the course of several years. She decided to "get him out of here" after a number of these "episodes," which involved Max harming other children.
Their move to Mississippi soon followed. Max was around 7 years old at this time.
But, as it would turn out, the move to Mississippi did not quell Max's "episodes." Max even began threatening to harm Collier's partner, Patrick Rounds. For his protection, Collier said Rounds began calling her on the phone when he was alone with Max in case Max did something to him.
All along, Collier said she would talk to her grandson about his behavior, telling him that if things didn't get better, she would be forced to do something she didn't want to do.
In the past few years, Collier said Max's behavior has become more aggressive. Although she said Max has never harmed her, Collier put chimes on all of the doors inside her house so she would know where he was at all times.
She also installed a deadbolt on her bedroom door, "because I don't know what he'll do. I have a child that's telling me that he has voices telling him to do things."
Because of this, Collier reached out to family members for help, even contacting Max's mother. She said things became worse once his mother was in the picture.
This reached a climax in an alleged incident where Max's mother, who was with her boyfriend, attempted to take Max from Collier's home in Utica, Mississippi, hitting Collier with her car in the process. A police report of this incident says it occurred on October 28, 2021.
Utica's Police Chief Timothy Myles confirmed that an arrest warrant has been issued for Max's mother. He also said he was aware of the family circumstances and Max's "behavior problems," but confessed that in these types of family situations, it's hard to know "who's telling the truth."
It was at this time that Child Protective Services became involved, which Collier was somewhat grateful for. She needed their help. The second encounter with CPS was after Max allegedly attacked a student at school. It was at this point that Collier told CPS, "I can't take no more of this."
At one point, Collier said she went to the CPS offices in Jackson, Mississippi, herself and stayed until closing, reiterating the fact to anyone who would listen that she could no longer provide care for Max.
CPS took custody of Max for a few weeks, keeping him in a children's shelter. Collier said she spoke to Max every day. After his stay in the shelter, Colier went to court and told the judge of her difficulties with keeping Max.
"We don't just give up kids," the judge told her, according to Collier. "If we don't want them, we don't just give them up."
Max was given back to Collier.
The day after regaining custody of Max, Collier said she took him to Children's of Mississippi. After explaining her situation, Max was admitted into the hospital where he would end up staying for several months.
Collier said she was in contact with the hospital during that time. Due to federal patient privacy regulations, the hospital could not offer comment on this story.
It was the beginning of June when Max was given back over to CPS custody.
A court appearance took place on June 16 in which Collier told the judge that if Max were to return to her care, she would want additional help with him if at all possible - a gradual transition. But that didn't happen.
She said she feared for her life, so she left her grandson at the CPS headquarters in Jackson(WLBT)
It was the night of June 23 when Max would knock on Collier's door. A Ring video captured the bizarre occurrence, with the 12-year-old being dropped off at his grandmother's house around 10 p.m., his social workers standing in the background.
"Hey, Nana," Max said as Collier appeared at the door.
"We just got the call from the judge," the social workers tell Collier as she stepped outside. They then explained that Max was now out of CPS custody. He was Collier's to care for now.
"I don't get no help?" Collier asked the social workers once Max was inside the house. "I don't get nothin'? You're kidding. I'm telling you that I'm scared for my safety with this child."
When Collier told the social workers that Max would need to go back with them, they replied, "No. We're fixing to go."
It was after they left that Collier wrote the letter stating that she was relinquishing her rights and that she was scared for her life.
The next day, June 24, Collier said she went to the courthouse in Jackson to try to get some clarity on what just happened. Max was with her at this time. With no luck there, she and Max went to the CPS headquarters.
According to Collier, she was met by an officer once she made it there. The officer had been advised not to let her inside the building, Collier said. A back-and-forth ensued, but she said she was still not let in.
"So, at that point, I looked at Max, I looked at the [officer], and I said, 'OK,'" Collier said.
And that was when she left Max.
When asked how she could explain her decision to a public that might not be so sympathetic, Collier said she couldn't take care of Max on her own.
"To raise a child, especially a child with a mental illness, it takes a village, not one person," she said. "I feel like [CPS] is that village. They have different resources... I don't have that. All I have is me, being scared. All I have is my safety being compromised."
Hours after dropping Max off at the CPS offices, Collier said she began getting calls from CPS, asking if she would take Max back. She refused. Collier said they then began threatening her with jail time. Collier said the pressure of the situation caused her to pass out in her front yard.
When WLBT reached out to CPS, they said they cannot remark on specific cases.
On Thursday, July 14, Collier said she had been charged with child neglect, and a warrant was out for her arrest. She could either turn herself in or wait until the police picked her up.
"I don't know what to do," she told WLBT.
Collier said she had no intention of leaving Max at the CPS headquarters that day, and that she had only wanted to speak to an official and figure out "what was going on."
And, if she were able to speak to a judge, that's when she says she would provide them with the letter renouncing her conservatorship of Max. But when no one would speak to her, well, she says she did what she did.
"I don't know what else to do," she says. "I'm tired... Nobody should have to go through this. Nobody. I should not have to fear for my life like this. I'm fighting for my actual life with a child that I'm scared of. Now I'm fighting for my life with the judicial system. What do I have to live for at this point?"
Selena, a cousin of Collier who lives in Detroit, said she and Collier are like sisters.
Selena said she was aware of Collier's arrest warrant and that all she could do was pray that Collier wouldn't go to jail and pray that Max wouldn't "fall through the cracks," like so many other children with mental illness.
"Putting [Collier] in jail, what is that gonna accomplish?" Selena told WLBT. "[Max] is still not getting any help, right? It's a desperate grandmother trying to get help for her mentally ill grandson at any means necessary. That's how I feel."
It was August now, and Collier was awaiting her court dates with one scheduled for September and another in October.
Due to the child neglect charge, she was set to appear in both juvenile court and felony court. But with the help of her lawyer, the arrest warrant had been dismissed.
Collier said she hasn't been able to speak to Max since she dropped him off at the CPS headquarters. She said she hopes that he will be put in a long-term care facility and stop being bounced around from home to home.
The Mississippi Department of Mental Health currently operates two programs specifically for young people with mental health challenges: a child and adolescent unit at the Mississippi State Hospital and the Specialized Treatment Facility.
However, according to Adam Moore with DMH, the preference for all individuals with mental needs, including children and adolescents, is to be served in the "least restrictive environment possible" without a need for admission to an inpatient or residential program.
He says that a variety of services are available, including targeted case management, outpatient therapy and intensive outpatient psychiatric services.
Collier said she fears Max may end up in jail, or worse, that he may hurt someone and that they will retaliate resulting in his death if he can't get the help he needs.
Through everything, Collier says that she still loves Max.
"With all my heart," she said. "With everything in me. I would not have gone 12 years if I didn't. I just can't do it anymore. At some point, you have to give up. I have to let go or both of us are gonna drown."

Q: Contentful render long text I'm figuring out how to render standard long text, but having issues.
Please take a look at my query, that is working when ran in the graphQL playground.
{
  allContentfulArticle {
    nodes {
      title
      slug
      para {
        para
      }
    }
  }
}

Here is my article.js file
import React from "react"
import { graphql } from "gatsby"

const Article = props => (

{props.data.site.siteMetadata.title}

{props.data.contentfulArticle.title}

{props.data.site.siteMetadata.author}

)

export default Article

export const query = graphql`
  query Article($id: String) {
    site {
      siteMetadata {
        title
        description
        author
      }
    }
    contentfulArticle(id: { eq: $id }) {
      title
      subtitle
      slug
      para {
        para
      }
    }
  }
`

The strange thing is that I can render the title easily which is a simialir content type - just short.
I can see my title, slug and other metadata fields being displayed on localhost, but not the para paragraph.

A: You are not rendering your long text field despite your GraphQL query looks perfect. Just use:
import React from "react"
import { graphql } from "gatsby"

const Article = props => (

{props.data.site.siteMetadata.title}

{props.data.contentfulArticle.title}

Your long text is: {props.data.contentfulArticle.para.para}

{props.data.site.siteMetadata.author}

)

export default Article

export const query = graphql`
  query Article($id: String) {
    site {
      siteMetadata {
        title
        description
        author
      }
    }
    contentfulArticle(id: { eq: $id }) {
      title
      subtitle
      slug
      para {
        para
      }
    }
  }

Het Hof van Limburg een natuurgebied in Geleen in eigendom van Vereniging Natuurmonumenten en is een zogenoemde multifunctioneel landschapspark waarop rekening wordt gehouden met duurzaam waterbeheer.

Gemeente Sittard-Geleen heeft het grote natuurgebied op 3 juli 2011 officieel overgedragen.

Omvang en ligging
Het Hof van Limburg is 40 hectare groot en een aaneengesloten gordel van 14 hectare bos en 3 hectare natuurlijk grasland. De ontwikkeling van het park gebeurt in nauwe relatie met Tuinboulevard Gardenz en Landschapspark De Graven. Het natuurgebied versterkt hiermee de zwakke verbinding tussen het noordwestelijk en zuidoostelijk deel van De Graven, in aansluiting op het smalle onbebouwd gebied tussen Geleen en Sittard. Het natuurgebied vormt ook een buffer tussen de woonwijk Lindenheuvel en de industrie.

Bezienswaardigheden
Het natuurgebied heeft diverse recreatievoorzieningen zoals een uitzichtheuvel, speelterp en arboretum. In 2006 is het DSM-bos en het Millenniumbos aangelegd. In hetzelfde jaar werden de waterpartijen en de fiets- (1,6 km) en wandelpaden (4,3 km) aangelegd.

Q: Problems with stress distribution using FEM
I'm trying to get the displacements u(x,y) and v(x,y) of a beam simply suported, the stress distribution in the middle section should be a linear function:

but i'm getting this:

My code is:
Needs["NDSolve`FEM`"];
PS = {
  Inactive[
     Div][{{0, -((Y \[Nu])/(1 - \[Nu]^2))}, {-((Y (1 - \[Nu]))/(
        2 (1 - \[Nu]^2))), 0}}.Inactive[Grad][v[x, y], {x, y}], {x,
     y}] + Inactive[
     Div][{{-(Y/(1 - \[Nu]^2)),
       0}, {0, -((Y (1 - \[Nu]))/(2 (1 - \[Nu]^2)))}}.Inactive[Grad][
      u[x, y], {x, y}], {x, y}],
  Inactive[
     Div][{{0, -((Y (1 - \[Nu]))/(2 (1 - \[Nu]^2)))}, {-((Y \[Nu])/(
        1 - \[Nu]^2)), 0}}.Inactive[Grad][u[x, y], {x, y}], {x, y}] +
   Inactive[

  }

Reg2 = Rectangle[{0, 0}, {L, h2}];

I don't why is this happening, but when i set the y coordinate in the Dirichlet Condition to y=h1/2 i get the correct stress distribution

A: Your boundary conditions seem to be not quite correct according to the mechanical problem. Sorry, I don't have the time to go through your code today, but I got a version running, although this will take some time and might be an overkill, since it is based on the full 3D theory. I have to go home now, I will try to take a look at your code again tomorrow, if nobody else finds the error.

EDIT: correction of your boundary conditions
Hey Gonza_! In your code, you wanted to treat the mechanical problem as follows.

You only had a slight syntax error in your boundary conditions
(*Wrong*)
bcwrong = {
   DirichletCondition[v[x, y] == 0, {x == 0, y == 0}]
   , DirichletCondition[u[x, y] == 0, {x == 0, y == 0}]

   , DirichletCondition[v[x, y] == 0, x == L && y == 0]
   };

The difference is that the bcwrong impose a vanishing displacement field at every point with x==0 and at every point with y==0. The correct syntax is given in bccorrect. Working code:

General 3D theory
I treated the problem as follows (length in x direction L1, in virtual y direction L2 and in z direction L3)

First, let's get a reference solution of the 1D theory:
(*Geometry - in m*)
L1 = 2;
L2 = 0.1;
L3 = 0.2;
Iy = L2*L3^3/12;
(*Force and densities - in N*)
F = 10;
qA = F/(L1*L2); (*area density - for 3D FEM*)
ql = qA*L2; (*line density - for 1D theory*)
(*Material parameters*)
Em = 2.1*10^9; (*Young's modulus*)
nu = 0.3;(*Poisson's ration*)
(*1D theory*)
wsol1D = DSolveValue[{
    Em*Iy*D[w[x], {x, 4}] == ql
    , (w[0]) == 0, (w[L1]) == 0
    , (w''[0]) == 0, (w''[L1]) == 0
    }, w, x];
My = -Em*Iy*wsol1D''[x];(*Moment*)
sig = My/Iy*z;(*normal stress*)
GraphicsRow[{
  Plot[wsol1D[x], {x, 0, L1}, AxesLabel -> {"x", "w(x)"}]
  , Plot[sig /. x -> L1/2, {z, -L3/2, L3/2},
   AxesLabel -> {"z", "\[Sigma](x=L1/2,z)"}]
  }
 , ImageSize -> Large
 ]

Now, let's get the full 3D FEM solution (takes 1.4 seconds for me) with a area force density
(*FEM solution*)

You can take a look at the deformed mesh if you want
mesh = usol["ElementMesh"];
Show[{

  }, Axes -> True, AxesLabel -> {x, y, z}]

The FEM solution (FEM solution as red points) is in good accordance with the analytical 1D theory
Plot[wsol1D[x], {x, 0, L1},
 Epilog -> {PointSize -> Medium, Red,
   Point[Table[{x, wsol[x, 0, 0]}, {x, 0, L1, L1/10}]]}]

You can get the stress distribution at any point with the full 3D Hooke's law $\sigma_{ij} = C_{ijkl} u_{k,l}$ (FEM solution as red points) (remark: you dont need to symmetrize the displacement grandient in my code in order to obtain the infinitesimal strain, since the stiffness $C_{ijkl}$ I used symmetrizes automatically the mapped tensor). Let's get $\sigma_{xx} = \sigma_{11}$
uv[x_, y_, z_] := {usol[x, y, z], vsol[x, y, z], wsol[x, y, z]}
eps[xs_, ys_, zs_] :=
 D[uv[x, y, z], {{x, y, z}, 1}] /. {x -> xs, y -> ys, z -> zs}
(*linear map of second order tensor B over fourth-order tensor A*)
lm[A_, B_] := TensorContract[TensorProduct[A, B], {{3, 5}, {4, 6}}]
(*Get Cauchy stress sigma_xx = sigma[[1,1]], at x=L1/2 depending on z with 3D Hooke's law*)
sigloc = lm[Ciso, eps[L1/2, 0, z]][[1, 1]];

USDA Grants to Address Stress for Farmers, Ranchers, Ag Sector Workers
The grants will provide programming across the country to address stress around finances, work, and family, as well as other issues exacerbated by the pandemic.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) announced recently departments across the country were receiving nearly $25 million in grants to support projects aimed to alleviate stress for agricultural workers.
The 50 grants support programs ranging from preventing suicide to marriage and relationship counseling.
"NIFA's Farm and Ranch Stress Assistance Network connects farmers, ranchers and others in agriculture-related occupations to stress assistance programs," said NIFA Director Dr. Carrie Castille in a statement. "Creating and expanding a network to assist farmers and ranchers in times of stress can increase behavioral health awareness, literacy and positive outcomes for agricultural producers, workers and their families."
NIFA says that even before the pandemic effects on the agricultural sector, stress was on the rise among those in the industry.
Ray Atkinson is the spokesman for the American Farm Bureau Federation. The organization runs a Farm State of Mind campaign, which includes research, a directory of resources, training, and tips on starting a conversation.
Though they are not direct beneficiaries of the grant, they work with many of the grant recipients.
"It sounds cliche, but…it's totally true that it's OK not to be OK," Atkinson said in a Zoom interview with The Daily Yonder. "Farmers help farmers. We know farmers help farmers, and so it's about really just encouraging folks to look out for neighbors, friends, and family. And just start this conversation. Just be there. Be willing to be there for people."
During the height of the pandemic, in January 2021, the American Farm Bureau released a survey that found a majority of farmers and farmworkers said the Covid-19 pandemic had impacted their mental health, and more than half said they were personally experiencing more mental health challenges than they were a year before then.
"My takeaway from this survey is that the need for support is real and we must not allow lack of access or a 'too tough to need help' mentality to stand in the way," said AFBF President Zippy Duvall at the time of the release of the survey.
"We are stepping up our efforts through our Farm State of Mind campaign, encouraging conversations about stress and mental health and providing free training and resources for farm and ranch families and rural communities."
In Minnesota, NIFA awarded the State Department of Agriculture $500,000 for its Bend, Don't Break project. The project will engage agency, nonprofit, and educational partners in helping farmers and others in agriculture cope with adversity, addressing suicide, farm transition/succession, legal problems, family relationships and youth stress.
Some of the organizations are legacy organizations, said Meg Moynihan, senior advisor on Strategy & Innovation at the Minnesota Department of Agriculture.
"We think our farmers are far more likely to be receptive to groups and organizations they already know," she said in a phone interview.
One such program is a network of mostly retired farmers, who act as advocates for current farmers experiencing hardships. They currently have 10 farmer advocates across the state and will be hiring one more, she said. There is also money earmarked toward non-traditional farmers, which includes immigrant farmers.
"We have quite a substantial and growing number of Latino and Hispanic farmers," Moynihan said. "People from Hmong origin, who have come from Laos and their family settled as refugees, or they themselves resettled and also attract new people from Africa, different countries in Africa."
Some projects will work specifically with Latino, Indigenous, and African farmers and farm workers.
As the results of the survey showed, Moynihan said stress has increased due to the pandemic for a variety of reasons, including market fluctuations and supply disruptions, familiar strains, and more.
"During the pandemic, families were thrown together in a way that they aren't usually thrown together," she said. "In some cases, the spouse who worked on a farm and was bringing in crucial income and benefits to the farm, perhaps was furloughed or their business closed, or their hours were severely cut. And so that presented some financial challenges to the farm."
To help with family-related issues, the Minnesota Department of Agriculture will be funding a series of retreats for farm couples to have firsthand experience with a psychologist and facilitators to work through issues, she said. The retreats are for "people who are finding their relationships balancing in different ways and want to explore that."

A critical report on fracking's impact on the UK air pollution levels has been deliberately hidden by the Conservative government for more than three years, it was revealed yesterday.
The document was quietly published last week on the 27th July, just days after the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) gave final permission for Cuadrilla to carry out fracking at Preston New Road, in Lancashire.
The report showed that 400 fracking wells would increase pollution levels, nationally, with an increase in nitrogen dioxides of around1-4% and volatile organic compounds(VOCs) increasing around1-3%.
Campaigners are rightly shocked and appalled that a critical piece of evidence was withheld and not for the first time. The scandal of the redacted DEFRA report by the government in 2015, during Lancashire's Planning Inquiry, was another indication of 'dirty tricks', especially with the impacts on rural communities redacted so heavily, the report barely made sense. A challenge by Greenpeace led to the Information Commissioner ordering the government to publish the full, unredacted report.
"It is simply disgraceful that yet again, democracy and justice has been withheld from our community. How can it be that scientific evidence has been deliberately buried from the public and especially during planning inquiries? This is contemptuous behavior, and sadly, one we are used to seeing from the present government, who put their industry pals before local communities.
"You'd be forgiven in thinking there was a government conspiracy around fracking. Last week, we had the drilling by dictatorship announcement, removing local democracy from drilling applications, then fracking by decree with the ministers deciding the fate of communities, the removal of solar subsidies, and now this. We are supposed to be cleaning up our air: the next generation depends on us.
1. Frack Free Lancashire (FFL) is part of an expanding national movement that opposes the development and extraction of shale gas worldwide.
Our mission is to protect our environment for our children and for future generations. Taking action now will safeguard the health and well-being of our communities from the effects of air pollution, water contamination, seismic movement and toxic & radioactive waste.

Q: How can I open colorbox to specific image from another image? I have this page here /products-page/rings/product-1-2/
as you can see there is 1 big image and 3 thumbnails
When you click on any of the small images, it will replace the big image.
Big Image code:

Click To Enlarge

When you click on the big image jquery colorbox opens up, however in the colorbox it says I have 4 images when I only have 3, I guess my question is how do I get colorbox to ignore the big image, but still having the link to work....is that what I am looking for?
Thumbnails Code:

Everything is wrapped in

Any help would be awesome!

A: As far as I remember from using Colorbox, it only recognizes images, that have the cboxElement-class attached. Since you seem to already have a function, which changes the big image's source, how about removing the class cboxElement from the clicked thumbnail, and attaching it to the other two images? Might be worth giving it a try.

A: Use Jquery...this will work...
jQuery('document').ready(function($){
$(".wpcart_gallery a:first").removeClass("cboxElement");
jQuery(".wpcart_gallery img").click(function($){
jQuery(".wpcart_gallery a").addClass('cboxElement');
jQuery(this).closest('a').removeClass('cboxElement');
});
});

A: You are getting 4 elements in the colorbox group - 3 thumbs + 1 main image - because your are telling colorbox to do so by giving all of them the cboxElement class.  That class is great when you need the default setup (e.g., a standard gallery of images with no external navigation).
However, you'll need to set up something less "default" for your situation.  I would recommend that you use your main image as the trigger for colorbox and set up your colorbox images in JS (without cboxElement).  The strategy goes like this:

*

*Initialize all the thumb img's into a colorbox group.

*When clicking a thumb, the corresponding thumb img's id is stored in the main image link

*When clicking main image, open colorbox group, starting with the id stored

Here's the JS for that:
//STEP 1: initialize colorbox group
$(".attachment-gold-thumbnails").colorbox({
    rel: "myGroup"
    //other options...
});

Here we set up the colorbox group.  Note that we are using a class that gets the img of the thumbs, not the links you have around them. And strictly speaking, you don't need to use the class to pull them, just whatever is convenient for you.
//Each thumb updates main image
$(".wpcart_gallery a").click(function() {
    var thumb_img_link = $(this),
        thumb_img = thumb_img_link.children().first(),
        product_image = $("#product_image_736"),
        product_image_link = product_image.parent();

    //STEP 2: update "data-thumb" attribute
    product_image_link.attr("data-thumb", "#" + thumb_img.attr("id"));

    product_image.attr({
        src: thumb_img.attr("href"),
        alt: thumb_img.attr("src"),
        title: thumb_img.attr("src")
    });

    return false;
});

This is the part you most likely want to customize.  At the very least, the thumb img id needs to be stored in the main image link.
//Main image opens colorbox
$(".preview_link").click(function() {
    var thumb_img_id = $(this).attr("data-thumb");

    //STEP 3
    $(thumb_img_id).colorbox({open:true});

    return false;
});

Using the id we stored in data-thumb, we open the colorbox group to that image.
You'll also need to make minor changes to the HTML:

Texans Boot Rookie From Practice for Hitting Too Hard
By Brett R. | August 6, 2019
In the National Football League, unless you are someone named Tom Brady, or a few others, a roster spot and playing time is never fully guaranteed. The odds go down even more if you are a rookie. So it is important to play hard each time you get reps on the field, but Houston Texans rookie cornerback Lonnie Johnson Jr. took it a little too far at practice.
The Texans selected the 6-foot-2 Johnson in the second round (No. 54 overall) in the 2019 NFL Draft, and they expected him to come in and compete right away. Little did they know that the former Kentucky Wildcats defensive back would take everything so serious.
During a joint practice with the Green Bay Packers, and during a non-tackling session, Packers tight end Jace Sternberger -- from Texas A&M -- caught the ball and was hit so hard by Johnson that his helmet flew off. Then, Johnson flexed over him, starting a little scuffle, which was broken up quickly.
The #Packers and #Texans got into joint practice fight, but it got broken up pretty quickly.

RELATED: J.J. Watt Riding a Tiny Bicycle is the Viral Video We All Deserve
To make matters even worse, Johnson also drilled Trevor Davis on a kickoff return.
So to make sure nothing else happened, Texans head coach Bill O'Brien decided to boot Lonnie Johnson from practice.
Bill O'Brien on Lonnie Johnson being booted from remainder of practice after hitting Jace Sternberger: '"That's between me and Lonnie, it's not a big deal. It was a play that developed over there, and it was time for Lonnie to head to the showers."
— Aaron Wilson (@AaronWilson_NFL) August 5, 2019
"That's between me and Lonnie. It's not a big deal. It was a play that developed over there, and it was time for Lonnie to head to the showers."
-- Houston Texans coach Bill O'Brien
The Packers, however, were not happy about it at all, including Packers head coach Matt LaFleur, tight end Jimmy Graham and wide receiver Davante Adams.
"I thought there was no place for that," LaFleur said, via ESPN. "We addressed it. It's an unfortunate deal, because I was pretty clear with our guys that we're not doing that stuff."
It probably didn't help that the second-round pick posted a picture of him flexing over Sternberger, who went into concussion protocol but was able to return to practice, on Instagram.
A post shared by Lonnie Johnson (@lonniejohnson06)
Big hits are encouraged in the NFL, especially if it was a clean hit like this one. However, rookie Lonnie Johnson Jr. should probably wait until the preseason game and not during a training camp practice to make his presence felt, even against an old SEC rival.

A 70% tax on the super-rich is more popular than Trump's tax cuts
Eliza Relman
After New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez proposed taxing income over $10 million at a 60-70% rate, conservatives characterized the policy as socialism and argued it would gain little traction with voters.
But recent polling, including a new INSIDER poll, has found strong support for hiking marginal tax rates on the super-rich.
INSIDER asked respondents how they felt about lifting the tax rate to 70% for all income earned over $10 million, while keeping tax rates for income below the $10 million threshold at the current rates.
Overall, 38.7% supported the tax hike, while 34.4% opposed it. 13.5% of respondents said they didn't have an opinion.
Americans generally believe that as incomes increase, so should tax rates. A Reuters poll last October found that three-quarters of Americans believe the wealthiest in society should pay higher tax rates.
So far, Ocasio-Cortez's proposal is polling better than the 2017 Republican tax cuts.
According to an October Gallup poll, 39% of Americans approve of the tax cuts, while 46% disapprove. 51% of respondents said the tax cuts hadn't yet helped them financially.

INSIDER conducted a SurveyMonkey Audience poll on a national sample from January 15-16. We had 1,095 respondents for a margin of error of about +/-3.11%.
Overall, 24% of those surveyed identified as very or somewhat conservative, 29% as very or somewhat liberal, with the rest as slightly conservative or liberal, neither conservative nor liberal, or they'd rather not say.
SurveyMonkey Audience polls from a national sample balanced by census data of age and gender. Respondents are incentivized to complete surveys through charitable contributions. Generally speaking, digital polling tends to skew toward people with access to the internet. SurveyMonkey Audience doesn't try to weight its sample based on race or income. Total 1,095 respondents, a margin of error plus or minus 3.11 percentage points with a 95% confidence level.

The office dimmed as the sun gave way to a crescent moon poking from behind the clouds. Michael's cell chimed. He glanced at the screen. Ronnie.
Smiling, Michael shook his head. Ronnie. Always quick with the comebacks. Back in the day when Michael spent his time among foul-mouthed felons, that in-your-face humor had been a real attraction. To his mentor and the Lord.
Michael tensed, instantly thinking of his mom—not only of the abuse she suffered daily at the hands of his dad, but the mess of a childhood she'd grown up in.
"Right." So why did he feel so exposed?


Tool Plugins are usually stand-alone elements which don't normally deal with direct user interaction. Examples would be the email plugin which can send email notifications out in the course of your process, and a code generator that can generate serial numbers for invoices. Because of the nature of these plugins, they're normally associated with background tasks rather than those which require direct user intervention. This, however, does not mean that they do not have access to workflow information. Your PluginManager will still provide any and all data (form submissions, package information, assignee details, etc.) that are available at that point of process execution.
Select your application from the "Design Apps" tab and click on the "Processes" menu item. Click on the process you want to update.
In the process details page, the "Map Tools to Plugins" tab displays the list of tools activities defined in the process.
To map a tool, click on the "Add/Edit Plugin" button on the right of the tool name.
The resulting popup dialog presents a list of plugins that are available in the system. Click on the desired plugin (e.g. 'Email Tool').
The Plugin Configuration dialog will be displayed and each plugin will have its own configuration page. Enter the appropriate settings for the plugin.
Click on the Submit button at the bottom of the dialog to save the configuration settings.


Bonniconlon (Bunnyconnellan) was part of Sligo until the border changes in 1898 brought it into Mayo. This large cemetery is located a few hundred yards south of Bonniconlon town and has served the area since the 1930s. Before that Kilgarvan graveyard was the main burial ground.
The Howley family, known for building Belleek castle, originated from this area, and the O'Dowda family are remembered for their charitable work in Bonniconlon during the famine.

Full Length (11-20 Actors) /
Nice Little Island: A Thriller
Book By: Tim Wright
Cast: 3 m, 9 w, 1 voice.
Miles off Northern California's rugged Mendocino seacoast, St. John's School for Girls is located on a small island: it is an exclusive private academy which caters to troubled rich girls. However, it seems that a series of grisly murders occurring on the mainland are now taking place on this nearly deserted campus during Spring break. With the "storm of the century" quickly approaching, the eight girls who remained, as well as three faculty members, find themselves cut off from communicating with the outside world, and only have hours to find the killer before they become victims. Soon, a terrifying question is raised: What if the slasher is one of them? An exciting, stylish and modern Agatha Christie-like whodunit in two acts offering mature and sophisticated roles for young performers, as well as adults. This is a true suspense play. No "slash and gash" or "blood and guts" effects here. A great show for high school or community theatres.

Multiplatinum pop-rock band Matchbox Twenty, which is known for its massive hits like "Real World," "Push" and "3AM," is hitting the road this summer with The Wallflowers and playing a slew of shows in Southern California, including Sept. 23 at Cal Coast Credit Union Open-Air Theatre at SDSU in San Diego; Sept. 24 at FivePoint Amphitheatre in Irvine and Sept. 28 at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles.
"I'm proud to be a part of the greatest pop rock band in the world and I can't wait to play with them again," vocalist Rob Thomas said via a press release. "Stepping on stage with Matchbox and sharing those songs with the fans feels as natural as breathing to me at this point."
Tickets go on sale to the general public at noon on Friday, Jan. 17 via LiveNation.com. There's also a fan club pre-sale that starts at 7 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 14. More details can be found at MatchboxTwenty.com.
In a separate tour, rock icons Foreigner will also be out this summer with Kansas and Europe in tow for its Juke Box Heroes 2020 Tour. The hit-filled jaunt will come to North Island Credit Union Amphitheatre in Chula Vista on July 11 and FivePoint Amphitheatre in Irvine on July 13. Kansas, however, will not be performing on the tour stop in Irvine.
Tickets for the tour go on sale at 10 a.m. Jan. 17 via LiveNation.com.

Even Google can't remember that the Samsung Chromebook isn't a MacBook Air
by Matthew Panzarino — in Shareables
Ok, so this is obviously a simple designer's error, but it is one rich in karmic potential. Sharp-eyed writer Kyle Gray picked out an interesting graphic on a section of YouTube's site here.
The section is dedicated to YouTube's efforts in unifying the feel and look of channels across devices like smartphones, tablets and traditional computers. Google uses an Android phone and tablet, and a brand-new Samsung Chromebook to illustrate the page.
Here's the illustration:
Notice anything wrong with the Chromebook? Look closer.
Yep, it's running OS X, which you can clearly see from the trademark window buttons, not present on Chrome OS. When the new Chromebook was introduced in October, a lot of people noticed that it looked almost exactly like the MacBook Air. Apparently, it's so close even Google designers can't tell.

The objective of this project is the realization of a secure, flexible and dynamic mechanism using risk-based methodologies, capable of responding to threats and vulnerabilities and to adapt dynamically to the changes in the operating conditions, business processes or use practices, through the management of the entire vulnerability life cycle.
Thanks to the VMS, organizations will be able to measure, in a faster and more accurate way, the level of risk connected to ES device and ICT infrastructure.

After a 13,000 kilometre, three month journey through Europe and Asia, unmanned vans powered by green energy and funded by the European Research Council have crossed the Chinese border.
The expedition started on July 20 in Italy, with the goal of reaching the World Expo in Shanghai on 28 October, where a demonstration will take place at the European Union/Belgian Pavilion.
The Intercontinental Autonomous Challenge is part of a research project on autonomous driving funded mainly by the ERC, which aims to improve road safety.

The European Commission has announced the largest annual budget in 25 years of backing information technology research, opening the bidding for 2011 funding of €780 million at ICT 2010, the biennial showcase of the fruits of its investment in the field, held in Brussels this week.
More is to come, since the Commission has committed to increasing the ICT research budget by a further 20 per cent each year up to the end of Framework Programme 7 in 2013. And speaking at the opening of the conference Neelie Kroes, head of the Digital Agenda, told the 6,000 delegates she will make "a very strong case for even stronger levels of support," in FP8.

The European Commission is calling for a 'collaboration revolution' to get the public and private sectors working together, as the main plank of its new plan to promote innovation and so create jobs, solve the grand challenges and build an innovation culture to rival that in the US.
The focus for doing this will be European Innovation Partnerships, (EIP) each focused on a specific grand challenge, with concrete goals, driven by a board that will be chaired by one or more commissioners, with ministers from national governments, MEPs, and people from industry, academe and the public sector. Along with acting on the supply side to develop and introduce new products and services, EIPs will be able to act to bring down regulatory barriers, and so smooth the path to market and adoption.
The first partnership, due to get off the ground in 2011, has the objective of extending the health span of EU citizens by an average of two years by 2020. "This will reduce the strains on health budgets and open up new markets," said Máire Geoghegan-Quinn, Commissioner for research, innovation and science, unveiling the project as a centerpiece of the Innovation Union, one of seven initiatives the Commission is launching as part of its Europe 2020 economic strategy.

The European Commission, now planning its next big cycle of research funding, is considering giving greater importance to the way researchers manage, share, store and gain access to scientific data.
For SME targeted Collaborative Projects the minimum conditions to participate are: at least independent legal entities, each of which is established in a Member State or Associated Country, and no 2 of which are established in the same Member State or Associated Country.

Last year Pro-Active worked with Air Race 1 to promote the first ever pylon race in the history of Asia and, in November 2017, we returned to manage production of the inaugural Air Race 1 World Cup Thailand, presented by Chang.
U-Tapao Airport south of Bangkok was the venue for this spectacular debut –- 16 planes and pilots from the USA, Europe and Asia battling it out just metres above the ground, eight planes racing wingtip-to-wingtip in each heat across three days of action in front of a capacity crowd of 20,000+.
Pro-Active's crew worked with a local OB to produce a Facebook Live stream on each of the days while providing a steady flow of social media live spots and promo edits and, back in the UK, produced and distributed a one-hour highlights package.
