the education of an animal rescuer....part one
This whole discussion about the Obama pup got me bothered. I really don't give any sort of flying fuck where Bo came from. The discussion we need to be having is about why there is still any kind of mass killing going on in our animal shelters, why law enforcement agencies are in charge of most animal shelters (do they run other social services?), why we have no federal department of domestic animal welfare, why there is no concerted effort to put an end to puppy mill breeding, and why we don't take animal abuse seriously until an abuser crosses that line to hurting humans.
If you're squeamish - be warned. It ain't nice to know some of what still goes on in animal shelters across the country. Over the last two decades there has been an explosion in pet ownership across the country - it is estimated that there 75 million domestic dogs in homes and the pet industry is a 45 billion dollar business. There has also been, thankfully, a decade of reform in many places, leading to lower euthanasia rates, more humane treatment of animals in most shelters and an emphasis on adoption and rescue over killing at the end of the stray hold period. But we are still miles away from all animal shelters fulfilling the role of safe haven instead of slaughterhouse. When a former staff member at the Oakland shelter blew the whistle on the conditions at the animal shelter, her charges included that some dogs owned by people were killed, that a staff member was running an illicit breeding operation, and that dogs were being found alive in the freezer after euthanasia.
Many municipalities including Berkeley are building new animal shelters to meet higher standards of care. Every one except Berkeley is building a larger facility than they have now, to accomodate higher intake as the economy worsens and more and more animals are being surrendered, and more and more animals are being bred in vile conditions in puppy mills across the country. Berkeley is designing a shelter with fewer dog kennels - I can smile about it because it worries me a bit, but the reality is: Berkeley is the only city whose progressive policies have emptied the kennels. My role in that is one of my proudest accomplishments.
I've always loved animals - no secret there. There are photos of me trying to befriend wild ponies on the moors, and pictures of me sitting with small monkeys clambering all over me in Kuala Lumpur, there are tales of my rescuing an owl from a garbage can when I was 6, and the intense relationship I had with my cat Lola when my mother ripped me from our home in Berlin and left the cat behind. My ability to have cats and dogs in my life as an adult was severely impacted by the chaos of my life as I tried and usually failed to stay in one place.
But when I moved to San Francisco in the late 80's, I knew I had arrived 'home'. And by the time I bought my first home in Berkeley in 1997, there were three beautiful dogs and two amazing cats in my household - as well as Susie of course. We adopted Roxy from San Francisco Animal Control in 1993 so I knew what to expect at an animal shelter. I found RiffRaff lying in a gutter in Fruitvale in 1994 and I had 'rescued' Frankie my border collie from a family whose 4 year old child kicked him till his belly was bruised, in 1996. I began to see the abandoned, the abused, the stray and the desperate everywhere. When an exuberant young pitbull mix leapt in front of my car on Third Street, we loaded her up and took her to Animal Control where I argued ' yes, she's a pitbull' as they tried to argue that she was a lab mix. Finally they said 'if she comes in here as a pitbull mix, she'll be euthanised'. I took her home and Susie's sister adopted her the next day. She died recently at 16.
So, by the end of the 90's, I had discovered how to circumvent the probable death sentence for a pitbull mix by calling it a lab mix, and I had come across my first activist vet who helped me trap feral cats and literally snipped the male cats on my neighbors kitchen table before releasing them. I had a primer in animal rescue 101. But nothing had prepared me for how I would respond as I became aware of how badly most municipal animal shelters operated.
At about the same time as a Berkeley animal control officer told me the dog I found on my street would be better off dead, a huge social injustice threw itself in front of me, as I learned about the eviction of the large homeless encampment at the Albany Bulb. Susie and I had discovered the Albany Waterfront where we could run our exuberant dogs offleash and where an unusual mix of outsider artists, the outlaws and escapees from 'normal' society and off leash advocates accepted one another as fellow travelers at this place of wild imagination.
I knew that most homeless people at the Albany Bulb had dogs and cats as companions and that our local animal shelter in Berkeley would routinely impound those animals and usually kill them, as the 'owners' had no money to pay the impound fees, and certainly no proof of licenses as they had no permanent address. They were deemed 'irresponsible' or 'unsuitable' pet guardians. Better to put these animals to death than to let them live in the uncertain world of those without homes. Right? The pure inhumanity of this set all my antenna flailing.
I didn't realise then that I had signed up for a decade of activism and personal struggle as I set about transforming my local animal shelter and defending the rights of the homeless to be treated with respect with regard to their animals. I was not emotionally prepared when I found out what actually happens in animal shelters, the cruelty and the negligence, the brutality and ignorance. In 1999,when the Chief of Police showed me polaroids of a dead 'love bird' with bite wounds on it, it was a total shock when he told me that an animal control officer had bitten the bird to death - as retaliation for it nipping him. What was worse was that I had come to collect the bird that morning to take it to an animal rescue group and was told the bird had just been adopted 'by a wonderful woman'. It's body was actually lying in the office of the Police Sgt who ran the shelter. 'It's just a bird' the Police Chief told me his staff were saying.
When an animal control officer called me secretly and said she wanted to talk about the brutality at the shelter I was stunned by what she told me. A senior staff member walking through the kennels and pointing randomly at dogs and saying 'this one, that one, that one...this one' and one by one those dogs were led into the dirty laundry room, muzzled and killed. She told me that at a BBQ at one of their homes, one officer was telling another about her experimentations with euthanasia drugs, cutting the dose to see just how little she could use to kill, and having to re-administer a second dose if the first didn't work. Female cats were routinely separated from their kittens but could see each other across the hallway and would cry and cry until they were mercifully taken in the back room for PTS (put to sleep). Berkeley Animal Shelter, in one of the most liberal and progressive cities in America, killed 75 % of its' intake 12 years ago.
Today that figure is under 15%. Part Two ahead....

I read every word. I want to know what happened and what is happening.

I am not sure when I last felt so heavy hearted. I am not the squeamish type...but there is a lump in my throat now that may beg to differ. I think of myself as an 'animal person' and speak about and against these atrocities...but after reading this...I realize that is a drop in the bucket. What can I do that will make a difference?

Airbnb Will Roll Out Policy That Aims to Protect Hosts From Scheming Guests
Many Airbnb hosts of the mom-and-pop variety — yes, there are a few left — feel aggrieved when they welcome guests into their homes and have to bear the consequences of hostile reviews penned with the worst intentions. Airbnb is trying to tip the balance back toward hosts — and is probably making neither party totally happy.
— Dennis Schaal
There has been plenty of publicity about scammers posting listings on Airbnb that don't exist or don't resemble their descriptions.
Now Airbnb is announcing a series of measures to protect hosts from misbehaving or scheming guests.
You've all probably seen or heard about the short-term rental or hotel guests who threaten to write a negative review if they don't get a discount or perk, for example.
Airbnb has rolled out, and is in the process of introducing, a series of new policies to protect hosts from unruly, scamming, or otherwise misbehaving guests. These follow earlier announcements about the company taking steps to attempt to verify all listings, and to stiffen licensing requirements for certain tours after California shootings at a Halloween party at an Airbnb-booked property, and revelations about a nationwide host scam.
Among the changes is a reworking on how Airbnb handles guests — and hosts — reviews on the platform. Airbnb support agents are empowered to remove posts and star ratings that stem from irrelevant, biased, and fake reviews, and may banish repeat offenders among guests and hosts from the platform entirely.
Examples of irrelevant reviews, according to Airbnb, might be ones written by guests who are no-shows for reasons having nothing to do with the host or listing, but decided to criticize the experience or to vent about the dirty couch. Other supposedly irrelevant reviews might include descriptions of the host's appearance, public transportation, or "the type of people in our neighborhood."
Airbnb intends to remove extortionary reviews, such as those written in retaliation for the host not providing a late checkout.
Hosts, too, are getting new scrutiny. Hosts will be reprimanded or even kicked off Airbnb if they trade positive reviews for perks, or fraudulently write disparaging guest reviews about competitors.
Airbnb stated that it is trying to strike the right balance between enabling guests to have their say, and providing useful information to hosts and other guests.
The update to Airbnb's review policy was introduced a week ago.
Guests Standards Revamp
Airbnb also said it will introduce in early January new standards for guest behavior to combat excessive noise; unauthorized guests, parking, and smoking; and guests who leave piles of trash or debris in their wake.
Some of these steps grew out of host feedback. "That's why in early 2020, we'll be rolling out enhanced guest standards that set higher expectations for a trustworthy community," Airbnb stated in a blog post.
The policy will give hosts the ability to cancel the remaining nights of a stay if they can't resolve the issue with the guest. Hosts can also file damage claims under Airbnb's $1 million host guarantee.
While many of the policy changes Airbnb has announced in recent weeks, including verification of listings and neighborhood hotlines, are geared to protect guests and surrounding communities less-than-scrupulous hosts, many hosts feel left out of the solution when it comes to dealing with unruly, problematic, or law-breaking guests.
This has led to forums outside of Airbnb, such as on Facebook, where Airbnb hosts blacklist guests — and vice versa. Some of these forums, under the guise of being closed groups, yet sometimes having thousands of members, trash the privacy rights of guests and hosts alike.
Hosts and guests have had diverse reactions to Airbnb's new policies as expressed on Airbnb's host community forum.
One Jersey City, New Jersey superhost, Mark, said he's unsure it's wise to bar guests from commenting on the listing's neighborhood. "Also, I'm not sure why guests should be prevented from commenting on the neighborhood, there certainly are sketchy type areas that appear dangerous or run down and that would be information that future guests would want to know," he wrote.
He also argued that Airbnb's way of trying to police irrelevant reviews is too subjective; he wants to see more objective criteria for limiting guests' reviews.
Meanwhile, Andrew, an Airbnb host in Kreuzberg, Germany, countered that guests have the responsibility to research a property's neighborhood, and critiques of the neighborhood aren't particularly useful because everyone brings their own biases to such descriptions.
"On the whole though, I agree — none of these changes address the main issues that hosts have been bringing up, and I think we'll have to grimly accept that all the anxiety caused by guest ratings is a feature, not a bug," Andrew wrote.
"On the neighborhood issue, it's because guests are racists and will say neighborhoods are bad because they saw people of color people in it. I've experienced this multiple times. My neighborhood is good, but some guests are just afraid of diversity," wrote Stacey an Airbnb host in Tampa, Florida.
Several hosts called on Airbnb to ensure that guests provide proof of their real names with government-issued IDs.
Airbnb isn't committing government IDs because it said more than 1 billion people around the world don't have them. But the company it is expanding a program beyond 11 countries that it already does this to confirm users' identities with the information they provided in the reservation.
"The person you interact with online should be the person who shows up at your door in real life," Airbnb stated.

Why Learn to Code? The Surprisingly Broad Benefits of Coding
By Hannah Meinke on 08/24/2020
It wasn't long ago that coding was seen by many as an odd hobby for geeks tinkering with computers in their basements. But over the past several years, coding has progressed from a hobby to a critical career skill. Even better for those hobbyists? Employers have shown a willingness to pay a premium for the work of employees with coding and programming ability.
Knowing this, you might be wondering if coding is something you should consider. But there are still a lot of questions to be answered. How long does it take to learn to code? Why should I learn to code? We asked professionals from a wide variety of careers to help answer your questions and share their thoughts on the benefits of learning to code. Whether you're a marketer, a mom, a business owner, or just curious about the craft, we're ready to convince you why coding is an important skill worth adding to your toolbox.
Why learn to code? 6 Surprising benefits to consider
The benefits of learning to code can be surprisingly wide-ranging. Here are a few of the ways learning to code can benefit you.
1. Coding and programming careers have great earning potential
One of the strongest and most obvious draws of learning to code is the earning potential for coding and programming professionals. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) tracks salary and other important workforce information for a variety of careers.
Take a look at the BLS' 2019 median annual salary information for these coding and programming-related professions:1
Web developers: $73,760
Network and computer systems administrators: $83,510
Computer programmers: $86,550
Database administrators: $93,750
Software developers: $107,510
To put it into perspective, the national average for all occupations in 2019 was $39,810.1 As you can see, careers that involve some programming, coding or scripting skills tend to come with above-average salaries.
2. Demand remains strong for coding-related jobs
What good is a strong salary if no one is looking to hire for the position? When it comes to coding-related jobs, it appears there's still plenty of opportunity.
Here are the current BLS projections for employment growth in the same coding and programming-related professions:
Web developers: 13%
Network and computer systems administrators: 5%
Computer programmers: -7%
Database administrators: 9%
Software developers: 21%
When compared to the national average of five percent growth, you can see that a handful of positions are outpacing a lot of other careers. Computer programmers are an interesting outlier from this group, but some believe these projections are influenced by computer programming skills blending into other related in-demand tech roles.
While the role is still extremely valuable, more and more hybrid positions are being introduced into the workforce. This has resulted in less "computer programmer" job postings, and more opportunities that combine programming skills into other job titles.
3. Coding ability gives new perspective to problem-solving
"Learning to code has the inadvertent effect of teaching you how to think," says Adrian Degus, CEO of Nuvro. He goes on to explain that he used to be more prone to solving problems emotionally. But his coding experience has taught him to approach problems logically.
"Understanding logic, at a deep level, has improved my problem-solving proficiency tenfold," he adds.
Coding, in its most basic terms, is really just assigning a computer a task to do based on the logical guidelines you've outlined. Highly complex tasks are essentially a collection of smaller operations once you break them down. This methodical and logic-heavy approach to problem solving can be a boon for figuring out problems beyond a coding challenge.
Hilary Bird, senior developer at Get CenturyLink, agrees with this sentiment, saying learning to code has benefited her personal and professional life by encouraging her to take a step back and approach situations from a new perspective. "I can break problems down into small, separate parts and figure out how each is affecting the other," she explains. "This helps me decide what area of the problem to focus on first."
4. Learning to code offers career flexibility
Learning to code can help open up new areas of opportunity in your career and ultimately make you a more flexible candidate in a rapidly-shifting digital economy. Daniel Davidson, owner of Dan Design Co., started his career in print design but noticed he was consistently missing out on opportunities due to a lack of coding knowledge.
"The single greatest skill I have picked up for my professional life has been learning how to code," Davidson says. "Had I not learned to code, I would have been out of work years ago. It's been liberating and very lucrative."
Davidson adds that even if your job doesn't require you to have a deep understanding of coding or programming languages, it still helps because you'll likely need to interact with another person who does. Learning to code, even as a hobby, can give you a common reference point and better understanding of those who tackle some of the more complex programming and coding roles out there.
5. Learning to code can be a fun bonding opportunity for families
How often do you have the opportunity to learn something practical and new with your kids? Parents with school-aged children have the chance to start from square one together as they learn the fundamentals of programming and coding.
"My 10-year-old son actually decided to learn to code around the same time I did," Degus says. "It was a challenging but very rewarding experience. To this day my son and I talk coding over the dinner table, while the rest of the family makes fun of us for being geeks."
Christopher Prasad, marketing manager at JookSMS, points out that involving your kids can be a great way to keep yourself accountable as well as teach them important skills as the value of coding will only increase.
"Schools in the UK have now actually introduced coding to younger children so they know what it takes to design apps, websites and more, and I think it's a brilliant idea going forward and developing the younger generation," he says.
One excellent way to test the waters of learning to code is to practice with kid-friendly resources like Scratch, which gives both you and your child an introduction to programming fundamentals and systemic reasoning. This fundamental understanding will help you as you move on to more complex languages and applications.
6. Coding can be useful in jobs you might not expect
You might think coding and programming skills are only valuable for people working in highly technical specialist jobs. While it's true that learning to code is more important for some roles, that doesn't mean you can't find practical ways to apply coding knowledge in non-coding jobs.
Software architect and entrepreneur Mark Billion says his coding knowledge has benefited him in unexpected ways as a business professional.
"We were able to use Python to code our advertising algorithms, which also saved us about $1,000 per month," Billion explains. "So, if you are in business—any kind of business—coding is critical."
The ability to code allowed Billion to automate menial tasks that ultimately saved him money. That's a huge plus for small businesses where budgets are typically very tight.
For those who work closely with programmers and developers, learning the basics of coding can make you a much more valuable member of a team.
"While I'm primarily a marketer, having technical knowledge is one of the biggest assets I can provide my team," says Jake Lane, growth manager at Press Cleaners. "Being able to make a change to the code base helps free up our developers to focus on the more important stuff and reduces development lag time."
You don't have to be a programming whiz to reap the benefits of learning to code. Knowing just enough to be useful can still be a positive asset in most business environments.
Putting coding skills to work
Why learn to code? As you can see, there are plenty of good reasons why coding is important. Whether it's just for fun or as a form of professional development, you're sure to enjoy the benefits of learning to code as you build a foundation of tech skills.
But you still need to know—how long does it take to learn to code? To answer this question, you'll need to determine what kind of coding career you want to pursue. By exploring your career options, you can also find more reasons that answer—why should I learn to code?

Kolkata: Srinjoy Bose quits Mohun Bagan post. As per reports, Srinjoy who is popularly known as Tumpai within the Mohun Bagan club, has resigned from the post of Assistant Secretary on Monday. Tumpai had resigned from the membership of TMC and also stepped down as the Rajya Sabha MP last Thursday.
According to reports, Srinjoy Bose has given his resignation letter to Anjan Mitra on Monday. Mohun Bagan has been going through a flux in terms of trophy for the last four season. There had been voices from the supporters against the administrators. Now the exact reason for Srinjoy's resignation is a debatable issue. But Tumpai has himself said that considering the present situation, he has stepped down.
Srinjoy Bose's father, Swapan Sadhan Bose, who is popularly known as Tutu Bose, a TMC MP is known for his close associations with the Mohun Bagan club. The stepping down of his son has undoubtedly raised a question in the club premise with the annual elections in the cards. With Subrata Bhattacharya and Prasun Banerjee forming a stiff opposition against the ruling personalities, the stepping down of Tumpai is sure to add an extra flavour in the upcoming Mohun Bagan elections.

Q: html object margin-right no function I am building a leaflet map and want to add a logo and a headline above the map. When trying to define the position, I noticed that only the margin-left command works. The margin-right command just gets "ignored". I currently only use the margin-left command to pretty much get around the problem, but when I try to minimize my browser the alignment just is not right anymore.
Here´s some code from my html elements:

Maschinentechnische Anlagen

Note: The margin-right part when defining the map also does not have any impact, but that is not that big of a problem since it is already defined enough with the width part

A: in this situation margin-right is ignored because margin-left is smaller than the necessary size for margin-right: 7.5
you can't have the element at margin-left 89% and margin-right: 7.5%
To place the element at right 7.5 you can directly use right: 7.5%

7. Breach of the Agreement. I understand that if I fail to comply with the terms of this Agreement, Morinda Bioactives may, at its discretion, impose upon me disciplinary action as set forth in the Policy Manual.

The pole-sitting #1 Audi R18 e-tron quattro leads the 2012 24 Hours of Le Mans after the opening hour of the race.
Andre Lotterer enjoyed a trouble-free start to the race in the leading car, although the same cannot be said for all of the German marque's four challengers.
Audi took an early top three lockout after Allan McNish in the #2 passed the #8 Toyota of Stephane Sarrazin at the Esses on the first lap.
Lap nine saw the first of the frontrunners come in to the pits – the two Toyotas followed by the #4 Audi ultra of Mike Rockenfeller. While the Toyotas rejoined, Audi pulled the #4 into the garage, rejoining a lap down when the two e-tron cars of Lotterer and McNish came in.
The #3 ultra of Loic Duval stayed out in the lead for an extra lap before making its stop, but it picked up a left rear puncture on its out lap, causing it to come in for a change of tyres. That knocked it down to fifth, behind the Toyotas of Wurz and Sarrazin.
The Strakka HPD had been due to start seventh as the top privateer LMP1, but was pushed back to the garage before the start and started the race six laps down. The Rebellion Lolas inherited the top non-factory positions. The JRM HPD, Pescarolo Dome and OAK LMP1 fought for ninth early on, but the Dome joined its sister car in the Pescarolo garage.
The ADR Delta car maintained the LMP2 lead from pole early on, but dropped back at the stops when the #24 OAK of Olivier Pla moved into the lead.
The DeltaWing had started in the middle of the LMP2 pack, but dropped to the back of that group once the race got underway.
Stefan Mucke took the lead of GTE Pro for Aston Martin, but as the stops took place it was the #51 AF Corse Ferrari that led after a fine fightback from Toni Vilander following the car's shunt earlier in the week. The #79 Flying Lizards Porsche leads GTE Am.

Egypt reports 901 new coronavirus cases, 57 deaths on Wednesday
Egypt's Health Ministry said 901 new coronavirus cases were detected on Wednesday, upping the total number of infections since the outbreak of COVID-19 in the country to 353,024.
In a statement, Spokesman for the Health Ministry Khaled Megahed said 57 patients have died from the virus over the past 24 hours, raising the death toll to 20,109.
As many as 239 patients were discharged from hospitals after receiving medical care, taking the number of recoveries to 293,613, the spokesman added.
Egypt has started its vaccination campaign in January this year, during which around 40 million citizens have been vaccinated against the novel virus, according to officials.
The country has received all types of vaccines worldwide, the latest of which was Moderna, Pfizer, and Johnson & Johnson.
Minister of Higher Education and Acting Health Minister Khaled Abdel-Ghaffar told a Cabinet meeting late in October that the country has received 72 million coronavirus vaccine doses and is expected to receive 26 million others soon.
The country has also allowed the vaccination of children who are above 15 years of age to receive the vaccine.

Bahrain meeting is politico-economic attempt to kill Palestinian cause: Haniyeh

Yemen-Press
A top leader of the Palestinian Hamas resistance movement has censured a US-led conference in Bahrain in support of President Donald Trump's controversial proposal for "peace" between the Israeli regime and Palestinians, saying Palestine is neither for sale nor for deals and conferences that seek to consecrate the expropriation of occupied lands.
"Today, we (the Palestinian nation) stand at a historic turning point. I say it clearly and plainly that Palestine is neither for sale nor for any deals and conferences that want to sanctify occupation. Our people stand absolutely united in the face of such deals," Ismail Haniyeh, the head of the Hamas political bureau, said as he addressed the Palestinian National Conference in Gaza City on Tuesday evening.
He added, "The Palestinian people are united against the Bahrain conference," warning that "the Palestinian cause is undergoing an unprecedented strategic threat."
Haniyeh pointed out that the Bahrain conference is a political meeting with an economic cover, and that the United States, which has failed in all its plots and schemes against the Middle East region, will not succeed to advance the so-called deal of the century.
"Bahrain meeting and the deal of the century aim to liquidate the Palestinian cause, give the green light to Israel to consolidate its occupation and control over the West Bank, open the door for Arab normalization of ties with the occupying regime, rearrange the matrices of enemies in the region on the basis of integrating Israel into the Arab world and install an enemy from within us as if it is the enemy of our nation," the senior Palestinian official pointed out.
He noted that the Bahrain conference comes at the same time as Palestinian resistance movements, spearheaded by the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades, are countering US plots and warning against the repercussions of its unwise moves.
Haniyeh also underscored that the Bahrain meeting will not get anywhere in the face of the Palestinian people's steadfastness and awareness.
The so-called "Peace to Prosperity" workshop opened in Bahrain on June 25 and will run through June 26.
The Palestinian leadership is boycotting the meeting, leading critics to question the credibility of the event.
The Palestinian Bar Association (PBA) plans to file a lawsuit against participants in the US-led conference in Manama.

For other uses, see Masked Marvel.
The Masked Marvel (1943) is a 12-chapter film serial created by Republic Pictures, who produced many of the best known of the serials. It was Republic's thirty-first serial, of the sixty-six they produced.
In The Masked Marvel, a hero dressed in a business suit and a face mask fights the Japanese saboteur Sakima and his espionage organization. The hook of the story is that, in a reversal of the common serial "Masked Mystery Villain" stock character, the audience doesn't know who the hero is until the final reel—all the audience is told is that The Masked Marvel is one of a group of special investigators (the same plotline is used in the Republic serial The Lone Ranger).
The Masked Marvel was budgeted at $157,110 (equivalent to $2,274,772 in 2018) although the final negative cost was $179,960 (equivalent to $2,605,613 in 2018)—a $22,850, or 14.5%, overspend.
It was filmed between 14 July and 18 August 1943. In terms of cost per chapter, this was Republic's third most expensive serial, behind Radar Men from the Moon and The Tiger Woman. The serial's production number was 1296.
The Masked Marvel is a reverse of the "old mystery villain theme." The identity of the Masked Marvel is kept secret from the audience until the last chapter. Clues and red herrings about the hero's identity are unveiled throughout the serial. Four possible candidates are shown: Bob Barton (David Bacon), Frank Jeffers (Richard Clarke), Terry Morton (Bill Healy) and Jim Arnold (Rob Bacon).
The Masked Marvel is really stuntman Tom Steele throughout the serial except the very final shot, in which he removes his mask. The mask was directly moulded from Steele's face. Despite this, Tom Steele was given no screen credit at all, even for the bit parts and stunts he performed in addition to the title role. The voice of the Masked marvel was dubbed in by radio actor Gayne Whitman, since Steele's natural voice was a light tenor, somewhat similar to Henry Fonda's, and did not record as particularly "tough." However, in Steele's most visible secondary role, as a murderous assassin, he disguises his voice, apparently believing that his natural voice would be used for the Marvel.
Bob Barton was a "jinxed" role. David Bacon got the role because four previous actors had injured themselves and were unable to work. While filming one of the serial's big fight scenes, every actor but Bacon was seriously injured. "I'll probably get hurt going home in the car," he had joked. Just two weeks after the production of the serial had been completed, Bacon was murdered and died moments after exiting his car.
Rod Bacon who played Jim Arnold was murdered in 1948.
The Masked Marvel was screenwriter George Plympton's only work at Republic.
Chapter four has an unusual cliffhanger, especially for Republic, as it has no action or death involved. Instead, Sakima, sitting behind his desk in his secret basement, simply (although incorrectly) announces "So, Jim Arnold is the Masked Marvel."
In addition to playing the main character, Tom Steele was also the stunt gaffer on this serial. As stated above, he received no screen credit for this. Steele himself was doubled by a dummy in the scene in which the Marvel is thrown off the top of an enormous gas tank. On the way down one of the dummy's arms gets caught in the rigging of the tank and is clearly ripped off. Yet when the Marvel lands in the back of the truck below, he has both arms intact. The budget and schedules of serials mandated retakes only in the most dire circumstances.
As an odd outcome of playing both the Masked Marvel and other stunts and bit parts, in one scene Tom Steele chased himself up some stairs.
One stunt in Chapter 10 is particularly notable: to prevent a rolling handcar filled with explosives from destroying a train transporting aircraft parts, the Masked Marvel crashes his own car into the handcar. The Masked Marvel survives by jumping aside at the last second. Harmon and Glut write that "the scene is both thrilling and perfect craftsmanship."
The effects in The Masked Marvel were produced by Republic's team, the Lydecker brothers.
The Masked Marvel's official release date is 6 November 1943, although this is actually the date the sixth chapter was made available to film exchanges.
The Masked Marvel was one of twenty-six Republic serials re-edited into features for television release in 1966. The title was changed to Sakima and the Masked Marvel. This version was 100-minutes in length.
Harmon and Glut describe The Masked Marvel as an "exciting serial, one of Republic's best." They especially note "some of the most beautifully photographed and edited action sequences in the history of cliffhangers."
Cline writes that the sight of seeing the hero "jump right into his own fights" rather than have the camera cut between an actor and a stuntman, more than compensated for the reveal in the final chapter when the actor playing the Masked Marvel removes his mask and is clearly not the same actor playing the part in every other scene. This scene is described as almost anticlimactic and "must have been just a little embarrassing." This was one of Republic's best serials.

Thomas Mann's meditation on the power of literary representation and the tyranny of the writer's imagination, published in Vintage Classics for the first time. Mann's novel, written some 150 years after Goethe's The Sorrows of Young Werther, follows Lotte Kestner, Goethe's real-life heroine, as she makes a pilgrimage to Weimar to meet the author who courted her forty years before. To her surprise, Lotte is greeted on her arrival as a celebrity and immediately taken up into Goethe's set. Time and place are brilliantly evoked in Mann's novel, but its genius lies in his masterful portrayal of Goethe himself, and of the astonishing influence he exerted on his contemporaries.

In case of sexual harassment: San Francisco restaurateur designs educational poster
Local // News

Last fall, when big restaurant sexual harassment stories began going public across the country, San Francisco restaurateur Karen Leibowitz was having lots of conversations with other women in the industry, trying to figure out why harassment was so endemic — and what could be done.
"We kept saying to each other, 'Why are people staying in these jobs where people are not being respectful?'" she says. "We would love to have more women cooks come to us. We would also like people to know there are resources, that you shouldn't feel trapped."
One of the end results of those months of conversation is a new poster that Leibowitz, co-founder of the Perennial restaurant and a partner at Mission Chinese Food, designed with graphic artist Kelli Anderson.
This poster was designed by Karen Leibowitz of the Perennial restaurant in San Francisco, with the magazine Cherry Bombe.

Fashioned after the "What to do in a choking emergency" signs that restaurants post on their walls, the poster that is aimed at providing resources for workers in any restaurant. It takes a matter-of-fact approach on how to recognize and handle harassment, with resources and tips for each step.
Step 1: Keep a record.
Step 2: Tell your employer.
Step 3: Make if official (with resources if your employer retaliates or doesn't take action).
Step 4: Find allies, such as timesupnow.com.
Leibowitz collaborated with Cherry Bombe magazine for the poster, which has a English and Spanish versions that restaurants can download for free or order for $10 (plus shipping) from its website. The magazine, a biannual publication focused on women and food, recently published a series of articles called #86 This devoted to talking about sexual harassment in restaurants, and next steps for the industry.
Leibowitz says that restaurants already have posters about other issues of employment law, such as overtime and sick pay, but nothing about hostile work environments and how to navigate a problem with management. She wanted this one to be like a Heimlich Maneuver poster, because she sees harassment as a problem that has solutions.
"Sexual harassment is not normal. It's a problem that needs to be addressed," she says. "But we should address it in the way we address other problems instead of shoving it under the rug."
At the Perennial, Leibowitz recently had to fire an employee who violated the company's zero tolerance policy for sexual harassment. It's spelled out in the employee manual, which each employee has to sign when they are hired. Afterward, she and other managers met with the staff to remind them how the policy works.
The experience made her realize no one is necessarily immune to the problem.
"It's in my own restaurant," she says. "I'm a woman restaurateur and it happens even still."
Postcard versions of the poster are available to industry people at the bar at the Perennial, 59 9th St., San Francisco. theperennialsf.com.

Durrrr might be one of the best poker players of his time, but his poker blog definitely isn't. We aren't saying his blogging is horrible, he just doesn't post enough on a regular basis to keep us entertainment. Durrrr has however started actively tweeting which has probably become the best way to know what he's been up. You kind find his twitter feed at the bottom of Tom Dwan's profile page profile page.
I guess we can't complain too much since he is a young poker pro earning millions of dollars a year living the 'baller' life-style 24/7. Most of us when put in his shoe's would probably think of the dollars it would cost each minute to type a blog (and not playing some new hot shot online) or hire an assistant to type out a few hundred words every few days. So in that respect thanks Durrrr and keep up the good work.
It seems like Durrrr is a sporadic blogger often blogging 3 days in a row followed by a 3 or 4 week break. Let's just hope his sporadic blogging sessions become longer and longer as he start gathering more and more followers on the net.
As you might know Durrrr has issued a 1 million dollar heads up challenge to pretty much the entire world (except for 'OMGClayAikon'). This challenge has been ongoing for a very long time now and has become kind of hard to follow. This is where his blog becomes more useful as his posts often contain information about the latests developments in his Heads Up challenge. So if your aren't familiar with Durrrr's headsup challenge or haven't readup on it for a while, be sure to check out his blog page for a quick overview and update.
You can visit Durrrr's official blog by following the previous link.


It's been a while, but I'm back. Hmmm…maybe I should not use the word "BACK".
When I last wrote to you, I was using my phone to share my feelings. I was unable to sit at my desk, due to what I've now discovered were two slipped/herniated/out of place discs that were applying unnecessary pressure to nerves. After a month of suffering (including one maddening day that included a trip to the ER) I awakened one morning with no pain. None. I've been advised to enjoy these good days. One day I'll be in the process of brushing my teeth, or some inane activity that requires little physical effort, and that blinding light will reappear. I will scream out as many epitaphs as possible before I hit the ground, and then crawl to a corner to cry and await my release from my unphysical prison.
I'm rambling…sorry. It's become apparent to me that if it's not one thing…it will be another.
My personal goals included completing the Scenic City Cafè Series, along with three other novels and a collaborative novel with my friend and "Jocko" cover artist J.P. Harper. In other words, this was going to be a break-out year.
Looks like the only thing that has been broken are my enthusiastic plans.
Ten days ago, I awakened to no back pain. Repeat: NO PAIN! I stoked up the fires under my coffee pot and set to working on the screenplay that I wanted to finish before June 1.
Wait? Did I not mention my NEW desire to write a full screenplay, even though going into this year I had no clue how to write a screenplay? Yeah, add that as icing on the top of my one-million word cake.
Once I was assured that my back would allow me to sit in one place for ten or more hours, I jumped in with both feet and a mending frame.
Seventy-six pages of a screenplay lost?
I'm gonna give y'all the short version. This had nothing to do with not backing up my work. It had everything to do with too many formats jammed into a program that was designed to write screenplays…not act as a stand-alone word-processor.
Oh…it was gone. Every single word of it. If I can say so myself, it was pretty good for a screenplay-writing-newbie.
I didn't. Once that I realized that the words were gone, and they weren't coming back…I just laughed. What could I do? Screaming and throwing things (which some of you know…I have a very good arm) wasn't going to make everything better. My time machine is broken, which makes it difficult to go back and warn myself to not cut-and-paste different formats in.
There is a partial happy ending to my tale of woe and loss. I've called on a few of my friends to read my work as I completed sections. My last PDF save was on the 24th of April. A total of thirty-six pages. Half of my work.
So I sit here on this sunny Sunday evening, seven pages into the re-write of my first screenplay.
I've already found a few things that need changing…or adding…or subtracting.
P.S. I promised to tell you about my software.
I'm an avid-obsessive note taker. While you are talking, if you say something that peaks my creative soul, I'm making notes in my head which I will transfer to my favorite note taking software, Evernote. It's synched to my computer so if I take notes on a trip, I will have them when I pony up in front of my laptop. Use it with Android, iOS and Windows devices. Sync two devices for free.
I use Scrivener to write my stories and novels. There is a use for every single writing style or project. The 30 day trial is free and is fully functioning. If you have any questions, hit me up at the E-addy at the bottom of the page and I'll be sure to answer your Scrivner queries.
Finally, I'm new to this area of expertise, but everyone that I spoke with suggested Final Draft as the industry standard for composing screenplays. Scrivener does offer a screenwriting template, but–as I learned this past week–importing it into another program could be a recipe for disaster. The learning curve is short, and you'll be composing your silver screen, or small screen masterpiece in no time.
Special Note: Like I said earlier, coming into 2017, I knew nothing about screenwriting. I am certain that I am making some errors, but when I want to learn something, I'm going to get all of the tools possible. I read a few books in January and the one that really impacted me the most is "The Screenwriter's Bible". If you want to learn how to write a screenplay, PURCHASE THIS BOOK. I'm on my fourth time through the book, in addition to using it when I have a question. I have it in hard copy and digital.
One more thing…if you're still reading, you are really into my work, and I appreciate that. Everyone sees us artists at book signings, or gallery debuts, or styling a red carpet. No one sees the hours alone…thinking…creating…discarding and finally showcasing.
There is no greater pleasure than to have someone purchase my work and then to hear them tell me that they like it. Actually, there is one better…when a total stranger tells me that they've purchased my book because someone suggested it, my soul dances a jig.
Well, I'd better get back into the Attic. I feel a story in me that needs to come out.
