Libya Airstrike: At Least 40 Killed In Attack On Migrant Detention Center
amedpost 2 weeks ago
BENGHAZI, Libya (AP) — An airstrike hit a detention center for migrants in the Libyan capital early Wednesday, killing at least 40 people and wounding dozens, officials in the country's U.N.-supported government said.
The airstrike raises further concerns about the European Union's policy of partnering with Libyan militias to prevent migrants from crossing the Mediterranean, which often leaves them at the mercy of brutal traffickers or stranded in squalid detention centers near the front lines.
It could also lead to greater Western pressure on Khalifa Hifter, a Libyan general whose forces launched an offensive on Tripoli in April. The Tripoli-based government blamed his self-styled Libyan National Army for the airstrike and called for the U.N. support mission in Libya to establish a fact-finding committee to investigate.
A spokesman for Hifter's forces did not immediately answer phone calls and messages seeking comment. Local media reported the LNA had launched airstrikes against a militia camp near the detention center.
The airstrike targeting the detention center in Tripoli's Tajoura neighborhood also wounded 35 migrants, according to the Interior Ministry in Tripoli. Health Ministry spokesman Malek Merset posted photos of migrants being taken in ambulances to hospitals. He had earlier said that 80 were wounded.
Footage circulating online and said to be from inside the migrant detention center showed blood and body parts mixed with rubble and migrants' belongings.
The airstrike hit a workshop housing weapons and vehicles and an adjacent hangar where around 150 migrants were being held, mostly Sudanese and Moroccans, according to two migrants who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisal.
The migrants said three or four survived unharmed and about 20 were wounded. They said the remainder were killed, indicating the final death toll could be much higher.
The U.N. refugee agency in Libya condemned the airstrike on the detention center, which houses a total of 616 migrants and refugees, and called for an immediate end to efforts to return migrants to Libya.
UNHCR spokesman Charlie Yaxley noted that the agency had warned less than two months ago that anyone inside the Tajoura detention center was at risk of being caught in the fighting around Tripoli. Then, an airstrike that hit nearby wounded two migrants. Yaxley said UNHCR is sending medical teams to the site after the latest airstrike.
The LNA launched an offensive against the weak Tripoli-based government in April. Hifter's forces control much of Libya's east and south but were dealt a significant blow last week when militias allied with the Tripoli government reclaimed the strategic town of Gharyan, about 100 kilometers (62 miles) from the capital. Gharyan had been a key LNA supply route.
Many camps for militias loosely allied with the U.N.-supported government are in Tajoura, east of the city center, and Hifter's forces have targeted such camps with airstrikes in recent weeks. The LNA said Monday it had begun an air campaign on rival forces in Tripoli after it lost control of Gharyan.
His forces include the remnants of Gadhafi's army as well as tribal fighters and ultra-conservative Islamists known as Salafists. They appear more like a regular army than their adversaries, with uniforms and a clear chain of command.
Hifter's forces boast MiG fighter jets supplied by neighboring Egypt, as well as drones, attack helicopters and mine-resistant vehicles. It was not immediately clear what munitions were used in the airstrike early Wednesday.
Oded Berkowitz, a security analyst focused on the Libyan conflict, said Hifter's LNA flies "a handful of obsolete aircraft" that are "in poor condition." He said it has received spare parts from Egypt and possibly Russia, as well as decommissioned aircraft from both countries.
"Egypt and the UAE have been conducting air operations on behalf of the LNA, but there are no indications that the UAE transferred aircraft to the LNA," he said.
The fighting for Tripoli has threatened to plunge Libya into another bout of violence on the scale of the 2011 conflict that ousted longtime dictator Moammar Gadhafi and led to his death.
Hifter says he is determined to restore stability to the North African country. He is backed by Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia while his rivals, mainly Islamists, are supported by Turkey and Qatar.
His campaign against Islamic militants across Libya since 2014 won him growing international support from world leaders who say they are concerned that Libya has turned into a haven for armed groups and a major conduit for migrants bound for Europe.
His opponents, however, view him as an aspiring autocrat and fear a return to one-man rule.
At least 6,000 migrants from Eritrea, Ethiopia, Somalia, Sudan and other nations are locked in dozens of detention facilities in Libya that are run by militias accused of torture and other abuses. Most of the migrants were apprehended by European Union-funded and -trained Libyan coast guards while trying to cross the Mediterranean Sea into Europe.
The detention centers have limited food and other supplies for the migrants, who made often-arduous journeys at the mercy of abusive traffickers who hold them for ransom money from families back home.
The U.N. refugee agency has said that more than 3,000 migrants are in danger because they are held in detention centers close to the front lines between Hifter's forces and the militias allied with the Tripoli government.
Libya became a major crossing point for migrants to Europe after the 2011 ouster and killing of Gadhafi, when the North African nation was thrown into chaos, armed militias proliferated and central authority fell apart.

TERRAFORMING: Carbon-sucking machine switched on in Iceland, will remove 4,000 tons of CO2 from the atmosphere each year, harming rainforests and food crops
The world's biggest carbon-sucking machine, called Orca, is a $15 million device that can capture 4,000 tons of CO2 per year and is billed to reverse climate change (but actually harms rainforests and food crops by reducing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere).
The "direct air capture" (DAC) machine was created by Zurich-based company Climeworks and it was launched at the Hellisheiði Power Station in Iceland on Wednesday.
Orca uses a filter to extract and permanently remove CO2 from surrounding air. It is estimated to capture 4,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide per year — equivalent to the annual emissions from 790 cars.
While the feat is notable, this total is a mere fraction of global CO2 emissions, which totaled 34.7 billion tons in the last year, as per the International Energy Agency.
Orca has a stack of metal "air scrubbers" that suck in CO2 from surrounding ambient air using fans. It is then be extracted using a chemical filter. The CO2 is stored underground, reducing the amount of greenhouse gas that reaches the atmosphere. The gas can be stored permanently in deep geological formations, or used to make fuels, chemicals, building materials and other products.
Jan Wurzbacher, co-founder and co-CEO of Climeworks said that Orca has provided a scalable, flexible and replicable blueprint for the company's future expansion.
"Achieving global net-zero emissions is still a long way to go, but with Orca, we believe that Climeworks has taken one significant step closer to achieving that goal," he said. (Related: Go Zero program allows consumers, businesses to offset carbon dioxide emissions.)
Wurzbacher did not comment on the global famine that would result from reducing CO2 levels, harming food crops and rainforests.
Climeworks also commissioned the opening of the first commercial-scale DAC plant in Switzerland in 2017, and was based on working prototypes from labs at research university ETH Zurich.
Iceland also previously used the technology, but the one at Hellisheidi is the largest one yet. The stark design is meant to embody an "interconnection between nature and technology" in the Icelandic landscape.
Orca makes a dent in emissions
Orca started construction in May 2020 and is formed with eight large container-size collector units that are stacked in twos. Each of the stacks is more than 20 feet long. The collector units capture CO2 by drawing in air using a fan. inside the collectors are chemical filter materials that collect the CO2, and lets clean airflow out the other side.
Once the filter is saturated with CO2, the collector is closed so that no air could get in. Inside the collector, the captured CO2 is heated up using power from the Hellisheiði geothermal power plant, and CO2 from the filter is released and extracted in a concentrated form. "Through natural mineralisation, the CO2 reacts with the basalt rock and turns into stone within a few years," Climeworks explained.
This removes CO2 from the air and returns it to Earth, depriving food crops, trees, grasses and other plants access to the carbon dioxide they need to survive.
Climeworks noted that the technology can be replicated at different locations worldwide on even larger scales to increase the amount of CO2 being captured.
The plant is a long way from Climework's original goal of capturing one percent of annual global CO2 emissions, or more than 300 million tons by 2025; however, it is still targeting 500,000 tons by the end of the decade.
The company still hopes to reach its 300 million ton target, but noted that the timeline has changed as it took them longer than they originally anticipated to build up an entire industry.
The demand for carbon removal at Orca is so high that the company decided to scale up the plant and build one roughly ten times larger in about three years. Investments are already pouring in as companies and governments find ways to mitigate global warming.
The main challenge for Climeworks is lowering the cost of its service. Individuals who want to purchase carbon offsets can pay the company up to $1,200 per ton of CO2. For bulk purchases, the cost is closer to $600 per ton.
Climeworks want to lower the cost to $200 to $300 per ton by 2030, and to $100 to $200 by the middle of the next decade, when operations are at a full scale.
When fully operational, this means its customers will be "greenwashing" their own emissions by hiring Climeworks to burn electricity to run massive carbon scrubbing machines that alter the atmosphere in a way that harms food crops and makes the planet less green (and colder). Only in an insane world could this be considered good for the environment.

CULTUREENVIRONMENTETHICSWELFARE
DEADSTOCK: Thousands of factory farmed animals drown in British Columbia floods, many more left stranded
The cows were very confused. They're shivering and shaking and panicked. The hay started floating and the cows were still eating the hay as it floated. The situation is heartbreaking.
MICHELE BRUNORO: Thousands of farm animals have perished in B.C. floods, and thousands more will be in "critical need of food" over the next few days, according to the province's minister of agriculture… Hundreds of farms have been affected by flooding, including both those that are underwater and those that have stayed dry, but are cut off from necessary resources.
Many farmers on Sumas Prairie in Abbotsford have stayed put, despite evacuation orders, refusing to abandon their animals. Owners, along with volunteers, are desperately trying to save cattle. Frightened cows are being towed one by one through treacherous flood waters behind jet skis. They are then pulled to safety and herded into trailers…
One of the people using a boat to help in the effort is Abbotsford resident Menno Koehoorn. "The cows are very confused," Koehoorn told CTV News. "They're of course shivering and shaking and panicked … The situation is heartbreaking. "There's going to be dead livestock and dead chickens and some other things," said Abbotsford Mayor Henry Braun. "We know that a lot of the cows came out. The heroic efforts of our farmers was unbelievable. I wish you could see what I saw."
But the emotional mayor says many calves drowned when waters rose to four or five feet… Paulette Johnson, 66, said the water came up fast, flooding her home and leaving the cows standing in water as well. "The hay started floating and they were eating the hay as it floated," she explained…
Flooding in the Fraser Valley also inundated the province's animal health lab, which conducts testing for diseases in livestock in the province, as well as safety testing for B.C. milk, according to the minister…
Abbotsford Mayor Henry Braun said… "I saw barns that looked like they were half full of water, I can't imagine that there are any birds left alive"… Holger Schwichtenberg said he was not yet sure how many farmers were working to move their milking cows, but in such situations, they would reach out for help to get their animals off-site.
He said 25 to 30 cows were being transported to his own farm in Agassiz on Tuesday from another farm in the Fraser Valley, east of Vancouver. "This is an example of an industry coming together when things really get ugly," Schwichtenberg said. "We're doing the best that we can with the situation that we've been handed and it's a tough one."
Moving livestock is time consuming and stressful for the animals and people involved. "You've got trucks, you've got neighbours, you've got whoever's got a pickup truck or something to haul cattle in and you start moving them to higher ground or you've made arrangements to get them off-site," Schwichtenberg said. Braun said Tuesday watching farmers work to save their animals was "heartbreaking". SOURCE…
SHEENA GOODYEAR: B.C. Agriculture Minister Lana Popham says she understands that farmers are desperate to reach their starving and injured livestock in flood-ravaged parts of the province, but she's asking them not to put themselves in harm's way by crossing police-enforced roadblocks.
Thousands of animals have died as a result of severe flooding on farmlands in southern B.C., and many more remain stranded on evacuated properties with no access to food or clean water. Some were injured in the flooding and require veterinary assistance. Some farmers have been crossing roadblocks or defying evacuation orders in order to tend to their livestock, but are being stopped by RCMP…
CBC: 'You have heard, I'm sure, that many of these farmers [are saying they] would die for their animals, and they're trying to protect them. At the same time, there are evacuation orders in many of these places for their own safety. What are you advising the farmers to do?'
LANA POPHAM: 'I don't think that any of us can really understand the pain that these farmers are feeling right now as they're being kept away from their animals. We've got animals that haven't had food and water for days.
There's farmers that know they need to get back in just even to deal with euthanization issues. And so it's a desperate situation and it's painful. But there are really dangerous situations right now with the roadways. And so we are not encouraging farmers to cross into those dangerous areas, although we completely understand why they're doing it'. SOURCE…

I'd like to show you how to create the perfect luxury real estate marketing video.
The first thing you need to do is watch the video below from Goldeneye Media. I'll wait… all right then, let's recap.
1. Introduce the style and atmosphere of your video from the very first frame.
Audio is just as powerful as video. Most video production companies think they have audio covered with a music track. Set the tone visually and aurally. Viewers typically make up their minds in the first 10 seconds about whether they are going to keep watching a marketing video. Notice the sound of the pool and the children's laughter in the background as the camera tracks through the magnificent indoor swimming pool. A few quick cuts to some beautiful architectural shots and you're already committed – you want to see what comes next.
Don't roll a bunch of credits or branding or text titles by themselves at the beginning of the video – many viewers will never get past these. In this video, the titles were overlays which didn't interfere with the feel of the video.
2. Get to your 'story' (if that's the structure of your video) right away.
If you're going to introduce a storyline in your video, even if it's relatively unstructured, then get to it right away, and make it intriguing. In this case, the 'story' is a standard 'day-in-the-life' sequence of a family living in a beautiful home. The story has to revolve around the house (it's a property video) so you have to be careful to find the correct balance between story and house.
This video does an excellent job of striking that balance. I really enjoyed the device of following the kids through the house up to the parents bedroom at the beginning. It provided an immediate purpose for showing different areas of the house and it made you want to know where they were rushing off to. The 'story' doesn't need to be obvious, in fact the 'story' can be quite loose, but ideally there should be an air of intrigue to draw you in.
3. Choose your music carefully.
Yes, I know, that's sort of like saying 'make a good video…' but bear with me on this one. The music in this video is good… however, (nitpick alert!) my very first impression (that's what music does – it provides you with a 'first impression' of the video – it literally tells you how to feel…) of that staccato piano riff wasn't great. It just didn't seem to match the elegance of the house. However, it quickly resolved into a richer song that contained lyrics that supported the video quite well.
I loved the fact that the video started with natural sounds and then introduced the music. But the beginning tone of the music didn't work as well as it could have, IMHO. Often, when we've created real estate video, we'd choose the music first and let that influence the edit of the video.Choosing a music bed that contains lyrics is an interesting choice because the viewer will listen to those lyrics and will associate what is said, to some degree, with the visuals. If the lyrics wander too far from the visuals then that can lead to confusion by the viewer.
In this case the first lyrics 'the mountains lay so perfectly as the blue hangs over my head" is set up nicely with the exterior shot of the mountains followed by the mom looking up through the skylight into the sky. Having the key phrase in the chorus ' this is something beautiful' continually remind you of the quality of what you are watching is brilliant.
I appreciate this comment is straight out of 'film-making 101' but if you're going to show a unique feature in a home or a human action in a wide shot then you have to cut to a matching close-up to let the viewers see the details or the reaction in that shot. I thought the editor did a really fine job of taking the DP's best shots and mixing them into the story of the video. Close-ups provide you with more information, they add artistry and depth to a video and they serve as resting points as you watch the video progress.
5. Make those key features interesting.
1. The Orchard. Clearly the orchard is a key feature of the property. The aerial shots of the orchard are good but showing the mother and father driving through the orchard in their… Australian looking jeep thingy, is inspired. The shots are beautiful, but more importantly, the shots place you in that setting and give you a more visceral experience of what it would be like to be in that orchard. The human reaction shots serve to relay emotions associated with that experience- that's important.
2. The stable. I imagine that in real estate, a stable is much like a swimming pool – either you want one or you don't, and if you don't, you probably won't want the property. So for those who do want a stable, showing family members enjoying and using the stables is wonderful. Again, the editing of the video tries very hard to associate positive feelings with those key features of the property – that's how marketing works. That's very smart.
A decade ago when people just started to use video for marketing property the slider was the cool tool of choice. Static shots were much more dynamic if you added movement to them. The drone is the 'new slider'. If you're selling a multi-million dollar property you have to employ aerial footage. Seriously. You can't cheap out and ignore the grounds, the neighbourhood, the views, the context of the house – those are all critical. If you don't own a drone the cost of hiring a professional drone pilot is dropping quickly. (When the old-school drone pilot tells you he charges $500/hr wish him luck and call someone else.) You can capture beautiful footage on a $1500 DJI Phantom 4. (If you need a Octo-copter to capture footage on your Red Epic then absolutely, call the expensive guy.)You shouldn't pay for tech you don't need.
7. Showcase different living scenarios.
You don't always have to tell a linear story. In fact it's more interesting if you don't. Mix it up a bit. Use close-up shots that are disjoint from the on-screen action to change the pace and to highlight different features of the house. Show multiple sequences by going back and forth between different scenes that are taking place at the same time. Editing is going to become the key differentiator in high-end luxury video as everyone gets good at taking the same beautiful property shots.

£2.7m For Farms Affected By Flooding And Landslides In North West
Farm businesses affected by the 2017 flooding and landslides in the North West have begun to receive financial support from funding pot of £2.7 million, Agriculture Minister Edwin Poots has announced.
In August 2017 farmland was damaged by Storm Lorenzo and the Department provided immediate assistance to farmers on the ground in addition to the provision of £500,000 for remedial works by the Loughs Agency.
Minister Poots gave a previous commitment to consider a compensation package and announced in July of this year that he had allocated £2.7million in support for those worst affected by the flooding.
Minister Poots said: "Earlier this year I visited farmers in the North West whose farms were impacted by the flooding and landslides as a result of Storm Lorenzo. I heard about the challenges they faced at the time and the work required since then to restore land back to productivity. There is no doubt that it was a severely stressful time for those farmers, both financially and emotionally.
"As a result, I was very keen to provide some financial support to compensate for their loss of income and restoration costs. I subsequently announced, in July, that I had allocated funding to support farmers in the area and I'm pleased that 200 farmers in the North West will begin to receive payments from my Department this week."

Predicting success is hard, but "all-seeing" scheduling app may help!
(TECH NEWS) PreSource is a platform designed for schedule sharing and predicting the future of a company's work output.
Taylor Leddin, Staff Writer
I've written frequently and extensively about how teamwork and execution has changed now that we've entered a more virtual world. Nowadays, many people may be part of a team but work remotely.
Read also: How to ensure productivity in a structure-less work environment
This, like anything else, has a number of pros and cons.
One of the biggest pros being that virtual communication allows for collaboration from all over the world; which means that you can bring the best minds for that project together.
One of the biggest cons, however, is that communication and interpretation can suffer when it exists virtually.
As Marvin Gaye once asked, "What's goin' on?"
Luckily, as this becomes more popular, there also come new platforms and technologies that help enhance this process. Such a technology is found in the form of PreSource.
According to developers, "PreSource believes with an accurately built schedule, you now have a god-like view of your staff and how it is being utilized. See who is busy, who is too busy, and who isn't busy enough. See which teams have the bandwidth for more projects, or which departments might need to add some new employees."
Features of PreSource include: assigning resources, measuring utilization, and planning. With assigning resources, users can create teams, add people and resources, and are then able to assign said resources to projects and events.
By measuring utilization, users are able to tell which team members have full calendars and which ones can take on more tasks.
Users are able to assign each team member to their appropriate department, and then utilization is broken down both by department and by the individual.

Coastal litigation, airplane rescues and J. Rock Palermo III
Published in 2015 Louisiana Super Lawyers magazine By Paige Bowers on December 26, 2014
In a deposition last February, J. Rock Palermo III stood before Louisiana Oil & Gas Association president Don Briggs and asked him about a U.S. Geological Survey map indicating that oil and gas companies were responsible for
36 percent of the state's coastal land loss.
Briggs said he hadn't seen it and didn't need to see it. He had seen other maps.
"What other maps have you seen?" Palermo asked him.
"I don't know," Briggs replied.
In July 2013, the Southeast Louisiana Flood Protection Authority-East, which operates the levees, seawalls and other protective measures in the greater New Orleans area, filed a lawsuit against 97 oil and gas companies. It claimed 10,000 miles of canals and pipelines had contributed to coastal land loss, and the companies were obligated to restore the wetlands. In an attempt to derail the lawsuit, LOGA filed against the state attorney general, alleging the office had improperly approved SLFPA-E's contract to hire outside counsel—which included Palermo's firm—for the land loss suit.
From Briggs' perspective, the threat of lawsuits like the one filed by SLFPA-E was scaring off potential oil and gas company business. But Palermo, a partner at Lake Charles-based Veron, Bice, Palermo & Wilson, methodically demonstrated that Briggs had no facts or data to back up his theory that companies were avoiding drilling in Louisiana. He also demonstrated why SLFPA-E had every right to hold the industry accountable. Palermo cited fact after damning fact, many of which Briggs said he also hadn't seen or didn't need to see, even though the findings had been gathered by universities, the government and even the oil and gas industry.
It was a performance, one Baton Rouge Advocate columnist wrote, that forced Briggs to "concede a stupendous ignorance of his purported area of expertise." Legal experts said it elevated Palermo's profile at a time when Louisiana is trying to reconcile saving its fragile coastline with courting businesses whose practices are hastening its demise.
"Rock has a reputation as an outstanding trial lawyer who is always prepared and straightforward to work with," says Connie Koury, executive director of the Louisiana Association for Justice. "It's always gratifying to watch someone who believes in the causes they pursue and the cases they represent."
Palermo grew up the oldest of four children in Sulphur, a western suburb of Lake Charles. He developed his toughness while playing on his high school football team's offensive line for coach Shannon Suarez, who modeled himself after the legendary Bear Bryant.
"[Suarez] believed in building character foremost," Palermo recalls. "There's probably nothing I faced later in life that seemed to be as difficult as playing for Shannon Suarez. If you could endure playing for him, then you could endure anything."
However, the baseball diamond was where Palermo developed his legal temperament. As a youngster, he umpired games and found the job to be "a great laboratory for rules and issues and adjudicating things," he says. By the time he went to college, he knew he'd become a lawyer.
Palermo earned a bachelor's degree in finance from Louisiana State University in 1987 before entering its law school. As a law student, he worked for the university's sea grant legal program, editing a publication that tracked federal and state laws dealing with the environment. Working there helped him understand how important the law was to protect his state's fragile coast. Outside of class, he earned money teaching scuba lessons, which is how he met his wife, Kim. It also reinforced the notion that the environment was in dire need of protection.
When Palermo finished law school in 1992, he learned to fly airplanes, and later helicopters, before getting a plaintiff's attorney job with Raleigh Newman in Lake Charles, where he cut his teeth handling catastrophic injury and products liability cases.
One of his first cases was a tragedy involving a lemon meringue pie.
"[My client] was using lemon extract, which contains a large amount of alcohol," Palermo says. "She was making the pie filling on the stove, the filling caught fire and the flame got onto her child's pajamas." The child, who had disabilities, was badly burned and died a year later." Although the company that made the extract made new packaging that warned it was flammable, it did not take the extra step of removing the old bottles without that warning from store shelves," he says. "My client had purchased one of the old bottles."
Palermo eventually secured a favorable settlement for his client.
"All of my life, I thought that attorneys ripped off most people," says Jerry Jones, a Baton Rouge man who Palermo successfully represented in a medical malpractice case. "What I realized after working with Rock is that I wouldn't have gotten $25 if it hadn't been for him. He's someone who makes an effort to understand what you've gone through, and who can communicate it and who has the resources to find individuals who can back up what he says. I have enormous respect for him as an attorney and a human being."
For his part, Palermo feels the weight of responsibility for those he represents. "The client oftentimes comes to you with nothing," he says. "Their only means of balancing the playing field is your skills and resources. We're not paid by the hour most of the time. We have to take the case based on our belief that we will be successful."
After nine years with Newman, Palermo joined colleagues Jay and Jamie Bice to found their own firm, eventually adding partners J. Michael Veron and Alonzo Wilson, and focusing on environmental litigation since 2005.
While many of the firm's cases involve large landowners dealing with contamination, they also have "ones where there's a small landowner with a three-acre property that has been contaminated by an oil company," Palermo says. In a smaller case, "it's not difficult for an oil company to admit to what they did and get it cleaned up. It's easier for them to do that than it is to litigate it for years."
Michael P. Cash of Liskow & Lewis in Houston has been Palermo's courtroom opponent in many cases. "The highest compliment you can pay to your opposing counsel is that you trust him," Cash says. "And I trust Rock. Maybe it's an unfortunate commentary that it's so rare to trust your opposing attorney, but it's real. Rock is smart, he's tough, but he's always professional. I enjoy working with him—except for the part [where] it makes your job harder."
Cash recalls once going back and forth with Palermo on a hotly contested matter in a hearing. At some point, Cash made an offhand comment about his daughter being a student at LSU. Palermo, who is active in fundraising at the school, approached Cash after the hearing and said that if his daughter ever needed help, to please let him know.
"That's Rock Palermo in a nutshell right there," Cash says. "He can go to war with you in the courtroom and then turn around and offer to help your kid at school. He's just a class act."
In his spare time, Palermo goes on scuba trips with his wife and three teenage children. He serves on the Lake Charles Airport Authority and is a board member of the Louisiana National Guard Youth Challenge Program, which helps at-risk youth learn discipline and earn a general equivalency diploma.
He also puts his flying skills to good use with his local sheriff's aviation unit and with the Civil Air Patrol. In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, Palermo gained a bit of renown when he sent the Coast Guard latitude and longitude coordinates so it could save a family who was stranded on the roof of their home. When Hurricane Rita barreled toward Lake Charles, Palermo was drafted into the operations team for that part of the state, evacuating areas as needed, assessing the damage and providing a plan to get people back to their homes safely.
Then there's his ongoing legal battle on behalf of Louisiana's coast.
"We've all been under the belief that you have to choose between a clean environment and a great economy," Palermo says. "There shouldn't be a choice. In fact, a robust economy and clean environment should be truly aligned. In South Louisiana, we have an interest in protecting the oil and gas industry's infrastructure from storms, and the industry has an interest in having a population that can live here and work in their facilities. One of the things that coastal litigation has shown to the public is that this is a real problem and it needs to be addressed. I think oil and gas companies should be held accountable if they fail to restore the wetlands. If you break it, you fix it."

How Architects Are Rethinking And Rebuilding The Family Home
When a strange young man entered her bedroom, Kelly Rossiter wasn't entirely surprised. "He had had a bit too much to drink," says Rossiter, who lives in Toronto, "and had gotten lost on the way to the front door."
On the way, that is, from a party at her daughter's place; Rossiter and her husband Lloyd Alter live below their daughter Emma, now 28, in a 1913 house that's been split into two apartments. The door that links the suites in their home is usually left unsecured. "But after that night, I began locking the door whenever she had a party," Rossiter says.
That incursion was a "rare hiccup" for the three family members, who occupy the same house that Alter, 63, and Rossiter, 57, have inhabited since 1984. Recently, instead of trading it for a condo in another area, they hired David Colussi of Workshop Architecture to divide the rambling building into a duplex. Now they live in a suite in the first floor and basement; Emma is upstairs with her fiancé and a roommate.
Janna Levitt and Dean Goodman designed their family home so that part of it could be converted into a rental when their children moved out | Mark Blinch for the Globe and Mail
Like a growing number of Canadians approaching retirement, Alter and Rossiter have taken a creative approach to the architecture of the "empty nest." Rapidly rising housing prices – particularly in Toronto and Vancouver – are squeezing the middle-class expectation of home ownership for young adults. At the same time, their parents, people such as Alter and Rossiter, are not always eager to move into apartment living or to give up on the advantages of a familiar neighbourhood.
Rather than moving house, why not reshape our houses to fit us?
Such adaptability can be built into a house's architecture. One example is the Grange Triple Double, a house by Williamson Chong Architects: Their clients, a Toronto couple in their 30s with a young son, decided to move in with the husband's parents. They built a bespoke house that would accommodate them all together with rental income – and then change, multiple times, as the family's needs evolve through the decades.
"The ingredients for this kind of house," explains partner Betsy Williamson of Williamson Chong, "are spaces that are discrete yet flexible."
'When we moved in, we had teenagers,' Goodman explains, 'so we tried to figure out, what kind of house would work for that age of our family and what would work after that? | Mark Blinch for The Globe and Mail
The Triple Double, at about 3,200 square feet plus basement, sits on a corner; it is a three-bedroom, three-bath home which spills across three levels – and abuts rental space located on the ground floor and in the basement. The tenant space can be configured as one or two apartments; half or all of it can also be joined to the main house with the removal of cabinets or wall sections. In addition, one of the house's bedrooms can be closed off as a semi-private area for the older residents. In time, the architects imagine that the house could take many different configurations; for instance, one or both of the grandparents might move into the main floor rental space.
From the architects' point of view, such adaptability is fairly easy to design. The house's heating and ventilation systems can be separately controlled in each of three potential units; extra sound insulation provides a buffer of privacy. But the biggest consideration is, as Williamson explains it, a matter of space. "You need rooms," she says. "You need rooms that are closed off that can be opened up to each other."
This logic can be applied to houses that don't have the scale or the unusual geometry of the Triple Double project. Janna Levitt and Dean Goodman of LGA Architectural Partners, who are married and have two children, designed their own house a decade ago, when they were in their early 50s. "When we moved in, we had teenagers," Goodman explains, "so we tried to figure out, what kind of house would work for that age of our family and what would work after that?"
'It's important to think about what you're building for,' Goodman says, 'not just right now, but in the longer term. And how much longer? | Mark Blinch for The Globe and Mail
The first need was privacy: Their kids wanted their own space, and they got it in the basement, which is high (the windows start three feet off the ground) and has two bedrooms, a bathroom and a living room, plus generous windows.
That basement has room and the plumbing rough-ins for a kitchen; it also has a space for a front door and staircase which is, for now, buried under soil in the garden. ("We thought, if we give the kids their own door when they are 14 or 15 years old, we'll never see them," Goodman explains.) Now the kids have moved out, and the couple is preparing to rent that space out, providing a source of income.
And the upper levels, with about 1,600 square feet, two bedrooms, are still larger than the average Canadian house of 50 years ago. Goodman says he and Levitt are happy to reduce their ecological footprint, and simply don't need any more space.
There is a lesson in this: Design matters. Levitt and Goodman are excellent architects, and their house is efficiently planned to be comfortable and adaptable despite its relatively modest size. "It's important to think about what you're building for," Goodman says, "not just right now, but in the longer term. And how much longer?"
The upper levels of Levitt and Goodman's house, with about 1,600 square feet, are still larger than the average Canadian house of 50 years ago | Mark Blinch for The Globe and Mail
That raises the question of old age and a potential loss of physical mobility. Levitt and Goodman will live, still, on two levels; this goes against the emerging wisdom of "retirement communities," in which people are choosing to retire to houses that are often on one level and wheelchair-accessible. Kelly Rossiter and Lloyd Alter have likewise chosen to live on two floors.
But is that even a problem? Alter, who is a writer on design and sustainability and an adjunct professor at Ryerson University, argues passionately that being located in a walkable neighbourhood, served by transit and connected to neighbours, is what matters as one ages.
"Older people, when they move into single-family houses in subdivisions, they're setting themselves up for failure," he says. "It's a hell of a lot likelier that they'll lose their keys before they lose their ability to walk up the stairs.
"This is one solution: this re-intensification of our neighbourhoods."
Levitt and Goodman plan to live on two levels into retirement | Mark Blinch for The Globe and Mail
As Alter correctly points out, the conversion of houses into apartments (and back again) is nothing new – especially in Toronto, where such ad hoc adaptations have always provided a major portion of the city's rental housing. But for upper-middle-class families, they now make sense. "Now we're going into a generational change where the kids don't have enough money," Alter says, "and the parents have the house and don't need it.
That idea drives much of the business for the Vancouver design-build firm Lanefab, which specializes in energy-efficient laneway houses. Since the city made zoning changes in 2009 to allow such projects (small new houses in the backyards of existing houses), the firm has worked with clients who are house-rich, aging, and ready to simplify their lives.
"If you've got an 80-year-old house in Vancouver, being able to move into a new building that's energy-efficient – that's appealing," says Lanefab's Mat Turner. "They can stay in their neighbourhood, in a house that's custom-designed for them." Continue reading > > >

Vatican Latin website
Posted on May 10, 2008 by arltblogger
BBC News reports on a new section of the vast (and very professional) Vatican website.
The Roman Catholic Church, for centuries a bastion of Latin usage, has given the ancient tongue a 21st Century boost by launching a website in Latin.
The Vatican website now has a section – Sancta Sedes (Holy See) – with Latin papal texts and religious works.
Pope Benedict XVI is an advocate of Latin, allowing Mass in the language.
But when a papal decree was issued only in Latin by mistake last June, there was confusion until the Vatican press office put out an Italian version.
"It caused a bit of panic for my colleagues who had no schooling in Latin," said the BBC's Rome correspondent David Willey, "until the official translation finally emerged."
The Vatican website already has sections in English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish.
For centuries church documents were all written in Latin, the mass was said only in Latin.
Without a knowledge of the language you would not go far if you were an ambitious priest.
But Latin has fallen out of favour in recent years as the subject has been dropped from school curricula in many countries and normal Vatican business is conducted in Italian, or increasingly in English.
But Pope Benedict wants the Catholic Church to keep its ancient traditions.
After his election to the papacy three years ago, he addressed the Church's cardinals in Latin.
He has encouraged the use of the language in seminaries where new priests are trained.
Last year he lifted restrictions on celebrating the Latin Tridentine Mass,
The Latin Mass had been largely abandoned in the 1960s, as part of reforms to make Catholicism more relevant to its worldwide congregation.
But Father Reginald Foster, an American priest who is the Pope's official Latinist, praises the virtues and the clarity of the Latin language.
"You have to say something and move on," he says.
"It's not like French and some of these philosophical languages where you can write a whole page and say nothing – in Latin you can't do that!''
Fr Foster has a weekly programme on Vatican Radio called The Latin Lover, in which he explains the historical and contemporary uses of the language.

Week 11 College Football Betting Preview
Texas A&M vs. Auburn Prediction: Postseason Hopes on the Line When the Aggies and Tigers Meet
Loser of this matchup falls to last in the SEC West and is eliminated from bowl consideration.
Kevin McGuire
It was not so long ago that a mid-November matchup between Auburn and Texas A&M would be one of the games you may consider appointment viewing. But the 2022 college football season has taken much of the anticipation out of this year's matchup.
Instead of playing for a spot atop the SEC West, Texas A&M and Auburn (both 3-6 overall, 1-5 in conference) are simply playing for bowl eligibility, and the loser this week will be guaranteed to be staying home this bowl season.

When Texas A&M Has the Ball
The Aggies are hoping to get freshman quarterback Conner Weigman back in the swing of things for his second career start. Weigman missed last week's game against Florida due to illness and passed for 338 yards and four touchdowns in his last start against Ole Miss two weeks ago. That is the spark the Texas A&M offense needs in a big way as the offense has been a complete disappointment all season long.
Freshman receiver Evan Stewart is coming off his best game of the season with 120 yards on eight receptions against Florida last week. He also had a 100-yard game against Alabama, and he caught six passes the last time Weigman was the starter against Ole Miss.
When Auburn Has the Ball
Auburn needs quarterback Robby Ashford to get in a rhythm against the Aggies. Despite many flaws with Texas A&M this season, the pass defense is actually one of the more reliable assets it has. Texas A&M has just two interceptions this season, but the Aggies have held opponents to just 173.6 passing yards per game this fall. That includes a game allowing just 111 passing yards at Alabama and 140 yards to Ole Miss (although both opponents had three pass touchdowns in their wins over the Aggies).
Ashford needs to shake off a brutal performance against Mississippi State in which he completed just seven of 22 attempts for 75 yards and was sacked four times. A big game from Tank Bigsby may be a bit overdue as well. Bigsby has just two games with over 100 rushing yards in a single game. The Aggies rank 123rd in the nation against the run, so former Aubrun running back and interim head coach Carnell "Cadillac" Williams should focus on that as the bread and butter of the game plan this week.
No matter how you look at this game, one fan base is going to be pulling some hair out afterward and wondering how much worse things can possibly get. You know things are going poorly when you are an underdog against Auburn, but the Aggies may be a slightly better 3-6 team. Expect a fairly entertaining game complete with a weird ending deciding how this one tilts.

I have used this forum a long time ago, and found it a very helpful and friendly place, So I'm just saying Hi again after a long absence.
I've had this car for almost 10 years and I love it. It's versatile, reliable and I've generally found it uncomplicated to maintain and repair.
This time I've got a severely broken plastic block connector linking the heater pipes from the engine to the heater matrix through the bulkhead.
Haynes lightly recommend "Push the retaining clip to the left and remove the hose connector" but it seems to have welded itself on there. It looks as though I could just cut away the connectors with a Stanley knife or similar, but I'm not convinced that I know what I'm doing! For instance I haven't been able to locate a replacement part. Citroen main dealers being closed as it's Saturday. I've done several online searches with no result.
Anyone else had experience of sourcing this part, or know if it's possible to replace the block connector without removing the heater matrix?
I had to replace the heater matrix on my van, it's a hell of a job, but if it's just the outer connector / the one with the two rubber hoses on, you should be able to just replace that part, yes as you say there is a metal retaining clip which you have to press while you pull the connector block off, they can be very tight, they have 'o' rings fitted, which can 'stick', making it more difficult, keep persevering, hope you have some luck.
Thanks for the welcome and the message, that's reassuring, I'll get back to it with a little more determination now!
Right! Got the damn thing off, but not without breaking it into two parts which allowed me to twist each one off with a pair of long nose pliers. Now all I have to do is locate a replacement and hope that it isn't supplied integral with the two hoses.

Home } Sports } What are Microbiome All About?
Bacteria are often associated with diseases. Your genes often describe who will be you. It can determine why you have acnes than others. It is also blamed for having Chron's disease, PTSD, obesity and similar cases. It is all because of your gut.
The gut microbiome contains trillions of bacteria present in your gastrointestinal tract. It has captured the interests of many immunologists. All are interested how guts are related to some diseases, how can it explain them, solve them and many more. A gut is actually a community of bacteria.
Over the past years, researchers are conducting ways to directly pinpoint what are the different functions of microbiome in preventing possible diseases. Microbiome is also responsible for boosting the immune system. Once the study would advance more in the future, there would be no limit in the treatment for the complications for illness prevention.
This news will surely be a good one not just for the medical practitioners, but mostly to the general community. Studies are still in progress regarding the composition of a microbiome. There are bunches of information collected and are devising ways on how to analyze them all.
It is estimated that the world is 5 to 10 years away from discovering and establishing scientifically proven methods on how to make the microbiome be a "real companion" of the body in its fight along with our immune system.
Researches have concluded that not all bacteria are bad or harmful to our health. The presence of good bacteria inside our body will be mutually beneficial. In order to promote good bacteria, eating fiber-rich foods, probiotics drinks, such as yogurt and kefir. Exposure from dogs and dirt can also promote good bacteria. According to recently conducted studies, dirt does not equal diseases. Exposure to antibiotics during childhood may contribute to increased cases of certain diseases as well.

Exclusive Preview: Shazam! #4
Blair Marnell Monday, March 25, 2019
The Shazam! movie is just a few weeks away, but the latest issue of his new comic book series will hit later this week. Geoff Johns and artist Dale Eaglesham launched the new series with a storyline called "Shazam and the Seven Magiclands." In this incarnation, Billy Batson/Shazam can share his powers with anyone he considers family. So far, only Freddy Freeman, Darla Dudley, Mary Bromfeld, Eugene Choi, and Pedro Pena have made the cut. Now, King Kid wants to be the seventh champion, even if he has to destroy the entire Shazam family to do it!
Readers have also learned that there are seven realms: the Magiclands, the Gamelands, the Earthlands, the Darklands, the Monsterlands, the Wildlands, and the Funlands. King Kid rules the amusement park-like Funlands, and he tried to cast Mary and Darla away. Now, Pedro and Eugene have been lost in the Gamelands, while Darla and Freddy are trapped in the Wildlands.
In Superhero Hype's exclusive preview for Shazam! #4, we finally see the Wildlands, a place where humanoid animals embrace their inner beast. But there's one notable exception: a tiger named Tawny. He's desperately trying to overcome his nature…and that's against the law in this world! Long time fans may also recall that Tawky Tawny was one of Shazam/Captain Marvel's oldest allies. This is his new origin in the DC Rebirth era.
RELATED: First Look At Aquaman #46
Here's the official description from DC: "Shazam and the Seven Magiclands"continues as Billy Batson and the other foster kids are lost in the dangerous Wildlands! A realm where animals walk like humans…and where humans live in zoos! When Freddie and Darla are captured and paraded around like oddities, it's up to Billy and the others to rescue them from the greedy Crocodile Men! Plus, the shocking ending to issue #1 could up end Billy's new family…or make it stronger than ever."
You can read the full exclusive preview in our gallery below. Shazam! #4 will hit comic shops on Wednesday, March 27. Let us know what you think in the comment section below!

Robert De Niro quits 'Criminal Justice'?
Robert De Niro quits 'Criminal Justice'?
The show is an adaptation of screenwriter Peter Moffat's 2008 BBC drama of the same name.
By: Press Trust of India | Los Angeles | Published: April 22, 2014 4:53:23 pm
Robert De Niro quit the show due to a scheduling conflict. (Reuters)
Hollywood actor Robert De Niro has reportedly exited HBO's long-awaited miniseries 'Criminal Justice'.
The 70-year-old 'Silver Linings Playbook' star was roped in for the show after the untimely death of actor James Gandolfini last year, who was originally cast for the series, said The Hollywood Reporter.
Robert quit the show due to a scheduling conflict. The story follows the story of Jack Stone, an ambulance-chasing lawyer who becomes involved in a case defending a young man accused of murdering a girl on New York's Upper West Side.
The show is an adaptation of screenwriter Peter Moffat's 2008 BBC drama of the same name which was originally developed as a series at HBO.
The network passed on the pilot in February 2013, only to revive it as a limited series last May.

First up, I have another little book giveaway. This month it's for a paperback copy of the Wordsworth Classics edition of Treasure Island. Originally serialised between 1881 - 82, this classic by Robert Louis Stevenson is a must for any bookshelf! :)
Blurb: When a mysterious sailor dies in sinister circumstances at the Admiral Benbow inn, young Jim Hawkins stumbles across a treasure map among the dead man's possessions. But Jim soon becomes only too aware that he is not the only one who knows of the map's existence, and his bravery and cunning are tested to the full when, with his friends Squire Trelawney and Dr Livesey, he sets sail in the Hispaniola to track down the treasure...
Get up to five entries by filling out the Gleam widget below:
Treasure Island Paperback
The Missing Reel: The Untold Story of the Lost Inventor of Moving Pictures by Christopher Rawlence
Non-Fiction, 1992. The narrative is disjointed and sometimes difficult to follow, but the actual content is fascinating. I particularly enjoyed the family detail which is usually left out of online accounts of Le Prince, and hearing about the personal connections Rawlence had that inspired him to work on the story.
That's Not My Unicorn by Fiona Watt
Fiction, 2017. Simple but super cute pre-school book with lots of different touchy-feely elements, ranging from fluffy to sparkly to bumpy. My three-year-old adores it and can already recite the whole thing.
Where's My Cow? by Terry Pratchett
Fiction, 2005. When Sam Vimes gets bored of reading about farmyard animals to his baby son, he starts introducing some of the characters he encounters every day on his beat along the streets of Ankh-Morpok. This is a fabulous take on the ubiquitous 'that's not my...' kids' book format, making it a must for (future) Discworld fans everywhere!
The Abdy Farm Murders: Who killed two little girls at Kimberworth? by Jeannette Hensby
Non-Fiction, 2017. Detailed account of a case I hadn't come across before. I especially liked the careful explanations of the distances involved and the likely visibility (or lack thereof) of the murder site from the road, which helped make sense of how the killer was able to commit the crime. The family involvement in the book really brought home the tragedy of the case, and played on my mind for weeks afterwards.
Fatal Passions by Adrian Vincent
Non-Fiction, 2016. 16 brief overviews of historical crimes of passion, some better known than others. A well written, engrossing read, with short enough sections to pick it up and put it down as necessary.
The Woman In The Attic : The True Story of Blanche Monnier by Jennifer Morgan
Non-Fiction, 2017. Interesting but very brief overview, would work better as a chapter in a wider book on such cases.
Hollywood Stories: Short, Entertaining Anecdotes about the Stars and Legends of the Movies! by Stephen Schochet
Non-Fiction, 2010. An absolute treasure trove of Hollywood trivia from a professional Tinsel Town tour guide. The stories come without sources or references, but one or two at the very least will definitely whet your appetite to go googling for more info!
