Court rules the release under judicial control of diplomat Silviu Ionescu / The decision is not final
Vineri, 5 noiembrie 2010, 13:36 English | Top News
District 3 Court judges decided on Thursday to release under judicial control the former Romanian business attache of Romania's Embassy to Singapore Silviu Ionescu but the decision is not final, one of the lawyers defending the diplomat declared for the Romanian news agency Agerpres.
The court's decision can be attacked by prosecutors and the appeal will be judged next week. Ionescu's lawyer declared that one of the reasons invoked was that the diplomat needs to care for his wife, who is very sick.
Silviu Ionescu was accused of hitting two people with the official car. The driver left the scene of the accident and continued to drive to the next lights where he hit another person. The diplomat is accused of hit and run which caused the death of one of the victims.

On February 1, 2013, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) released a transmittal regarding new information that is required on claim forms. The change requires home health agencies to report new codes indicating the location where services were provided and indicating whether the services were added to the home health plan of care by a physician that did not certify the plan of care. These changes are to be implemented with home health episodes beginning on or after July 1, 2013.
The full transmittal can be found on the CMS website.


Through a Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA), you receive tax-free money from your employer to cover expenses that may not be covered by insurance such as medical deductible/coinsurance, dental work, vision care and prescriptions. That means fewer out-of-pocket healthcare costs for you and more money in your pocket.
An HRA is a program that is fully funded by your employer and is designed to help you pay for out-of-pocket expenses.
Your employer puts money into your HRA for you to use towards certain eligible expenses covered by your employer's plan design. Each HRA plan design is unique, please check your employer's plan design to verify what expenses are eligible. Because the money is contributed by your employer doesn't count as income, there are no tax implications. It's kind of like getting a raise. You can use the money in the HRA throughout the year for certain qualified expenses. Depending on your plan design, any leftover dollars may roll over from year-to-year (as long as you continue to be a member of the plan) or they may be forfeited. Check with your Human Resources department or Plan Administrator for more information about your plan design.


For those of you who are new to my ruminations my maternal grandparents lived in an old, two-story farmhouse out in the countryside of southwestern Michigan. And the door that served as its primary entry opened directly into the kitchen.
The kitchen was the central gathering place in the old house, with most activities focused on or around the table located in the center of the room. Repairs to radios and other household devices were typically done there (one could actually repair a radio back in those days) as were myriad other tasks requiring a flat surface and the aid of kibitzers, including the preparation of the family's federal income tax return, as I recall. In earlier days one would have found a deep sink in there with a cast-iron hand pump that piped water in from a cistern outside. But by the time I was a teenager the room had been fully modernized with electric appliances.
In the far corner of that room, though, one would have also found a tall, white, built-in cabinet with enclosed shelving below for pots and pans and glassed-in shelving above for dishes and knickknacks. And at waist height (which was about nose-height to me when I first discovered it), was a junk drawer.
And a tiny hunting knife in a leather sheath.
When I first spied that little knife, my eyes lit up like a Christmas tree. It was about four inches in length with an ivory-like handle and the name of a Kentucky campground or something imprinted on the leather sheath. A perfect replica of a buck knife, in miniature. Well, upon stumbling across this excellent find I decided to borrow it for a while.
Fast forward to my house.
My father was an industrial engineer by trade and, at the time, was in the process of building the first of three homes he would eventually construct for our family and my paternal grandparents over the next twenty years or so. And in the garage, he had a brand-new coil of about 100 feet of what would probably equate today to Romex 20-amp electric cable, which was to be installed in the new house. I had been particularly curious about this cable. I could see the three copper wires at the tip of each end but could not help but wonder what it looked like in the middle. Was it the same all through? So, I set to work with my little knife to find out.
Interestingly, I don't remember getting paddled for that first-of-many-to-come errors in judgment in my life. I could have just asked about it, I suppose—But I had been searching in earnest for something to use that knife on.
Well, Dad ended up tossing out the whole cable since it could not be repaired in a manner suitable for its intended use. He did ask me though why, for crying out loud, did I have to cut it right smack in the middle? I patiently explained, as I have above, and then never saw that little knife again.
It was the same in the middle by the way, in case you were wondering.
I like this tale, Skip. I have my own such junk drawer with the same kind of stuff. More importantly so did my mom & dad. After they passed and I had to sell the house, that junk drawer was the most difficult to purge. So I took most of it home with me and added to my junk drawer.

What mitigation actions can I take to protect my home? View some of the safety tips below to keep you and your family safe.
Buy a fire extinguisher and know how to use it.
Install residential sprinklers, especially for those who cannot escape quickly.
Install smoke detectors on every level of your home. Test them monthly.
Keep electrical appliances and wiring in good repair. Don't overload circuits.
Keep fireplaces and wood stoves clean. Keep storage areas free of trash.
Purchase a fire-proof safe for your valuables and records.
Store flammable liquids and gasoline outside in tight metal containers. Only use outdoors.
Purchase a back-up generator for your home. Make sure you follow the manufacturer's instructions in order to properly hook one up or get an electrician to do it.
Install air conditioners snugly and insulate spaces around them. Check air ducts for proper insulation.
Install temporary reflectors, such as aluminum foil covered cardboard, to reflect any heat back outside.
Keep the cool air inside by weather-stripping doors and windowsills.
Install a lightning protection system, which provides a safe path for grounding electric current. They are not noticeable and do not attract lightning. For local suppliers, look in the phonebook under Lightning Protection.
Install surge protectors to shield electrical equipment and appliances. These range from surge protectors for each item to those that protect the entire house.
Check battery-powered equipment, heating fuel, fire extinguishers, and carbon monoxide and smoke detectors.
Install insulation and winter stripping.
Winterize your car, maintain a full tank of gas, and keep moisture out of the tank. Keep an emergency kit in your car to help you stay warm, visible, and alive if trapped.

Sieve both gram flour and rice flour together in a bowl,add chilli powder, pepper powder, salt, crushed garlic, ghee, cooking soda.
Take a portion of this mixture, sprinkle water, knead as soft dough.Heat oil for deep frying in a kadai, use a kara sev ladle or Sev maker. Put some dough on that and rub directly into oil... Deep fry in oil , drain excess oil. Store this in an airtight container.
PS:If u are using pastry bag with round nozzle, just pipe them in a greased plate and gently drop them in hot oil..
Sprouting is a practice of soaking and draining and then rinsing seeds at regular intervaks until the sprouts comes out or either by using jars for making fresh sprouts, i usually make sprouts twice a month with fenugreek seeds, chickpeas, lentils etc and i'll use them often in my cooking...Seeds are packed with nutrients, sprouted seeds are even better. As each grows, proteins, enzymes, vitamins and other nutrients increase whilst becoming more bioavailable. At the same time toxins and enzyme inhibitors are reduced, increasing digestibility...Sprouts grown at home and harvested at the dinner table are the freshest food you'll ever eat. They wont have lost vitamins like shop bought vegetables or have travelled round the world. They will be organically grown, full of life and energy also sprouting is ridiculously cheap...Jars are traditionally used for sprouting, free and easy to find.. Use them for sprouts that don't need light, avoid overfilling them to counter bad drainage and poor air circulation and for the same reason don't use a lid, cover the top in a piece of muslin instead and invert jar to drain..This is how i make sprouts and its absolutely easy to makes fresh sprouts at home anytime..This event is to bring out how to make sprouts and sharing with everyone or either cooking with sprouts and adding them quite often in our daily menu..Do cook anything with sprouts and send them..
1)Cook and create dishes with sprouts as anything(vegetarian, vegan or non-vegetarian are accepted)..

After a long hesitation, this weekend i soaked black channa for making some sprouts...Successfully i sprouted half a kg of kala channa beans and pressure cooked for making some curries..After enjoying delicious channa masala with those sprouted kala channa, finally i prepared this simple, delicious and easy breezy rice for our today's lunch..This healthy rice need very less time to get ready but its really very nutritious as well as delicious goes prefectly for lunch box menu..Kasuri methi in this sprouted channa rice turned out this rice more prefect and none will find out the presence of kasuri methi in this rice until u reveal the secret ingredient..Best and better way to add bitterness to our daily menu as they are very healthy for our health..Am damn sure this healthy rice gonna be a keeper and am gonna prepare this sort of rice with some variations often, finally i got some better way to finish my huge bottle of kasuri methi sitting since a long in my pantry..
Heat enough oil, fry the whole spices until they turns brown, add the chopped onions, ginger garlic paste and saute until the onions turns transculent and the raw smell goes away..now add the pressure cooked sprouted kala channa,slit opened green chillies and curry leaves, saute for few minutes..finally add the garam masala powder, turmeric powder, pepper powder, kasuri methi and cumin powder with salt, fry for few minutes, add a half cup of water bring everything to boil and cook until the water gets evaporates..
Sometimes i used to prepare snacks with watever left in my fridge, thats the way i prepared this mixed veggies and sago cutlet, i soaked sago earlier for making some Sago Pepper Bonda and they were some leftover soaked sago, with which i finally wanted to make some snacks for our sunday evening, while going through my fridge there were few leftover veggies like carrot, cauliflower, broccoli,french beans..Immediately my mind went for a mixed veggies cutlets, however i finally decided to make out this sago and mixed veggies combo for making these crispies, this cutlet tastes fantastic along with ketchup also as usual its very simple and quick..I used the bread crumbs directly along with the sago and mixed veggies mixture instead of making a crust with them..Its really very tasty, easy and crispy snacks to enjoy..
Combine the cooked mixed veggies, cooked potatoes, soaked sago, garam masala powder, fennel seed powder, bread crumbs in a large bowl, meanwhile heat few drops of oil and saute the chopped onions, chopped green chillies, crushed ginger and curry leaves until the onions turns transculent..Add this cooked veggies along with the already prepared sago-mixed veggies mixture..Mix everything well along with enough salt, make small balls from this mixture and keep aside..
In Italy, cibatta means slipper which leads many people to call this bread as slipper bread..Ciabatta bread was invented by Italian bread bakers and become very popular throughout the rest of the world, this bread have a very distinct flavor and its very versatile bread to enjoy with anything from appetizier to sandwich..I love ciabatta bread and we buy it for our sandwich, before starting making this ciabatta bread at home i went through my baking books..Finally i got hooked with a simple oval shaped ciabatta bread and immediately i prepared them, i was really nervous about the dough as they got stuck with all over my finger and had a great time to shape it...Once baked this bread was excellent, i can say that its really worth to try out this beautiful bread at home..
Take the yeast, sugar in a cup of luke warm water in a small bowl and stir well...Leave in a warm place until th e yeast mixture turns foamy..Take 2 cups of flour and salt in a bowl, make a well in the centre and add the frothy yeast mixture, olive oil, stir everything well with a wooden spatule, this dough will be extremely sticky and it will be quite wet at this stage, shape the dough and place in a clean bowl, cover the bowl with a damp tea towel and leave in warm place for 4 hours..
Stir in the remaining cup of flour and mix well the flour to the doubled dough, scrape the side of the bowl, cover with plastic wrap and place in warm place for an hour..Springle a large baking tray with flour, dont punch the dough but carefully arrange them over the floured baking tray, make a oval dough, springle again the flour over the dough, cover with a plastic wrap and leave for 30 minutes aside..
Preheat the oven to 210C, place a container full of ice water on the base of the oven, bake the ciabatta for 30minutes,until the crust turns golden brown,dont forget to remove the water container after about 20minutes, the loaf cooked sounds halllow when tapped, ur ciabatta is ready to enjoy..
Spain won their first world cup and am very happy for them eventhough am not a great fan of Spain...Yesterday while everyone gets ready to watch out the final match, i prepared this Spanish fritters to munch while watching the match..Churros, sometimes referred as a Spanish doughnut or else fried dough pastry based snack..These churros originated in Spain and they are also popular in Latin America, France, Portugal, Morocco, the United States, Australia, and Spanish-speaking Caribbean islands. There are two types of churros in Spain. One is thin and usually knotted while the other one especially popular in Madrid, is long and thick. They both are normally eaten for breakfast dipped in hot chocolate or for snacks springled with sugar.Churros are typically fried until they become crunchy, and then are sprinkled with sugar. The surface of a churro is ridged due to having been piped from a churrera, a syringe with a star-shaped nozzle. Churros are generally shaped as straight, curled or spirally twisted.
Mix the flour and baking powder, keep aside..Heat the water with oil and salt, bring them boil..immediately add the flour mixture and stir until its turns as a dough, take care that the dough shouldnt be watery..take enough dough in a pastry bag with star nozzle..Meanwhile heat the oil for deep frying, once the oil is hot squeeze out the dough in the hot oil either as long strips or curled strips..Fry until they turns golden brown..
Roll the fried churros in sugar or springle enough sugar over the fried churros..Enjoy warm..
I rarely prepared fritters with sago, coz apart from kheer or puddings with sago none at home love anything with them...With lots of hesitation, i prepared sterday this simple and crispy bonda for our evening snacks with already soaked sagos, idly batter along with crushed pepper and cumin seeds finally mixed along with rice flour, this bonda is quite easy to prepare apart from the soaking time, its completely very quick to get ready within few minutes..With coconut chutney, this sago pepper bonda is definitely a fantastic evening snacks or an appetizier in a party menu..
Crush the peppercorns and cumin seeds in a mortar & pestle...Drain the excess of the water from the saoked sago, take this soaked sago along with idly batter,rice flour, crushed peppercorns, cumin seeds, salt and curry leaves, mix everything well, heat enough oil for deep frying, once the oil is hot drop gently the sago-idly batter mixture with a teaspoon, fry on both sides until they turns golden brown..

Can you imagine how much fun it would be to see Kate and William compete in front of a camera? Well it's happening! The famous "queen of cakes", Mary Berry, received them at her BBC show that will be broadcast on Monday, December 16, on the occasion of the Christmas holidays.
The future Princes of Wales cooked some traditional Christmas dishes and then served them to certain people who volunteer with the intention of helping low-income people during Christmas.
A television idol in the land of princes for her legendary cooking show, Mary Berry was named Commander of the Order of the British Empire for her services to UK culinary art in 2012.

Regarding her experience on the set with Kate and William, Mary assured the British media that "they were very competitive and did not lose sight of each other's creations while cooking theirs. They are a great couple."
Prince William and Kate Middleton
Do you remember the time the prince was asked why he was so skinny and he jokingly replied that it was his wife's fault who was not good at cooking ? Well now we will see how true that statement was live and direct!
Kate Middleton for article
Mary Berry and Kate Middleton enjoyed time together this year during the Back to Nature festival and, judging by the images, it is seen that there is already an excellent chemistry between them which will surely make the show more fun.

The Sunday Times defines the popular Mary Berry as "a human cupcake: elegant, classic and not overly sweet."

Established in 2002 by Carlos Choy, Inka is a Peruvian brand of high quality limestone cement developed for general use and initially sold as an unpacked product directly to industry. Following a move into the retail sector with a pre-packed product in 2007, Inka recently engaged Brandlab to develop a new visual identity and packaging solution, choosing to replace character illustration with heavy industrial cues, a subtle Inca duality alongside contemporary communication which convey reliability, longevity and quality.

The Stretch Island Fruit Co. have been providing 'tasty, all-natural fruit snacks to people on the go' since 1976 from its Washington base on Stretch Island.
The packaging for their latest product, a three flavour range of fruit chews, developed by multidisciplinary design agency Ptarmak, utilises a bold paper-craft aesthetic and a typographical intensity to mix fun, fact and natural authenticity – blurring the line between the bold flavour associated with sweets and the health of fruit – to appeal to both adults and children.

Launched by natural chewing gum brand Peppersmith, a company established in 2010 by former Innocent employees Dan Shrimpton and Mike Stevens, Tingz are a new, two flavour confectionary range that uses Xylitol, a natural wood sugar, to add plaque reducing property to the sweets.
Developed by London-based B&B, the agency behind the Peppersmith visual identity, the packaging for the line builds on the quirky personality of the brand, by introducing two wide-mouthed monster characters, a contrasting white and bright colour palette and subtle texture to create a wholesome but flavourful quality that reflects the natural, dental improving properties of the sweets.

Established in Zurich as a cooperative during 1925, Migros has grown to become Switzerland's largest retailer, supermarket and employer. Following the introduction of their M-Budget and Sélection own-brand lines, Migros has expanded into the bio market with an extensive 1000+ range of organic products produced from sustainable agricultural practices. The range's packaging and visual identity, developed by graphic designer and art director Pascal Frey and Schneiter Meier, delivers an everyday accessibility to what has, in the recent past, been seen as an expensive lifestyle purchase through the merging of natural, high quality illustrations and images with simple layouts and plenty of space.

When I was a kid I remember catching the end of that episode of Goosebumps where a kit ant-farm goes haywire. The ants grow to the size of large buildings and watch the humans trapped in their houses, in the kind of absurdist role-reversal which is terrifying when you're six. Maybe it's the cover art playing tricks on me, or maybe it's the apocalypse-horror soundscapes, but the latest dispatch from the Voyder collective brought this to mind.
Written by French producer Francis Balthazar operating under the name Cancer, Presque Rien is in many ways typical of what I've come to expect from Voyder; nuclear armageddon hip-hop and intergalactic distortions work in brain-scrambling contortions.
Although separated into digestible track lengths, the album is intended to be listened to in one sitting, each track leading into the next with little respite given from the crushing circuit bent electronics. Furthermore there are a number of remixes by Balthazar included on the LP, making the listening experience something like attending one of his live shows, not least for the improvised, freeform feel it possesses.
Of these dissections, 'Bouche Trou' is one of the most memorable; bone-rattling abstractions and grunting, swaggered rhythms working together in distorted chaos. 'Thunder5' is another of the release's most intense contributions, strained dial-tones and plummeting blasts of low-end thud to a fro, like if Death Grips had gone out for a big one at the late (great) Plastic People.
Although they're only five releases deep, if there's one thing I've learnt about Voyder, it's that they only like waveforms which look like a city broker's payday cigar. Any breaks or dynamics are compressed to oblivion, resulting in tracks which are above all else, loud. Balthazar then, is a pretty ideal fit for Voyder, presenting a release which assaults the eardrums with little regard for the long term damage it might cause. Glorious.

About Urania
Who is the Society's Muse?
The Society's "Royal" Charter
Active members of the Winnipeg Centre.
ROY AND PHYLLIS BELFIELD received the Service Award jointly in 1976. Throughout the '70s their dedication was of vital importance to the Winnipeg Centre and to astronomy in Manitoba. The basement of their home was used as a Centre office, library, and informal meeting place, and their backyard observatory was the focus of many enjoyable observing sessions lasting until the wee hours of the morning. They were both excellent astrophotogaphers and helped many others to develop this interest - Roy usually at the telescope and Phyllis in the darkroom. They prepared numerous popular slide shows for use in schools and thought nothing of travelling far afield to promote astronomy. With their active encouragement, an association straddling the international border flourished in Gretna, Manitoba and Nichi, North Dakota, during the mid-'70s. In addition to all these activities, Phyllis helped out with mall displays, star nights, refreshments, served the Centre as Librarian, Editor and Vice-President and made major contributions to the History of the Winnipeg Centre published in 1977.
Roy, as Vice-President and President, was the driving force behind the establishment of the Centre's Glenlea Observatory which, in fact, was modelled after the one in his own backyard. He was much sought-after as a speaker by various schools, camps and other groups and as a result was invited to become a part-time lecturer by the University of Winnipeg where he conducted in service astronomy classes for teachers.
After moving to Victoria, Mr. and Mrs. Belfield served the Centre there as Vice-President and Treasurer in 1985. Roy was not in good health and died in 1993.

Enjoy Over-the-air Digital signals to the best!
The recent advent of the digital TV broadcasting switchover has brought a sign of relief and smile on many faces in Australia. This transition has completely wiped out the most annoying problem of picture distortions — snow and ghosting — that made analogue off-air reception quiet unreliable and shady.
With DTV signals (both standard-definition and high-definition), you will have the best television viewing experience sure shortly. It facilitates the viewers with very crisp, clear and ghost-free picture image with superb sound effects. In the point of fact, we can say that usually most of the local and syndicated programming is not high-definition.
At times, it's really particular thing that the local stations follow i.e. they transmit the digital signals in standard-definition during the day time and after in the evening they switch over to the full widescreen HDTV during primetime.
So far, it has been observed that the widest selection of DTV transmitter' are found mainly in the metropolitan cities. And only few are there you are putting up in the rural areas or far flung areas.
Cable operators and satellite service providers offer hundreds of channels. But, do you really know that how they are able to provide you that much number of channels. They usually compress the data with the usage some technique, which results in reception of soft images, distorted videos and very bad sound effects. Hence, it can be said that the off-air antenna reception is one of the best ways to enjoy HDTV programmes that too in full resolution.
The cable operators and satellite television service providers may not be able to provide you with all the local channels aired due to bandwidth limitations. In order to enjoy all the digital channels that too free of cost you need to look out for an antenna installation service provider and we at Antenna Installation Today make sure that your digital ready television aerial should be installed in a right manner and in the right direction.
Provided your digital TV antenna is installed with the usage of the right type of equipment and in the right direction, then we have found that some viewers are often able to receive out-of-station channels.
Apart from the costs involved in the purchase and installation of an aerial, receiving over-the-air digital ready channels are absolutely free.
Thinking of harnessing all these benefits digital TV signals! Then don't think much just pick up your phone and get in touch with us today!

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS: Legal Resource for "Illegal" Immigrants & Facts on "Illegal" Immigration
April 1, 2017 Lady Makaveli
As we watch America too quickly descending backwards in both progress and morality under the tyranny of Trump/Pence, we must never forget the turmoil of those being thrown out of America. Too many Hispanic people live in fear night and day of being harassed, arrested or deported, and too many people -based on those I personally know- are aware of the legal rights they have, "illegal" or not. Thus, I am posting a link for all people facing threat of arrest, detainment or deportation under the new, sickening tyrant rule of Trump/Pence.
The following link(s), which directs you to a section of the National Immigration Law Center, is a PDF file giving the rights each individual holds when it comes to questioning, detainment or deportation. It also refers people to a link where you can ensure loved ones know your location, stating:
Make sure your loved ones know how to find you if you are detained by ICE. They can use ICE's online detainee locator (https://locator.ice.gov/odls/homePage.do) to find an adult who is in immigration custody. Or they can call the local ICE office (https://www.ice.gov/contact/ero). Make sure they have your alien registration number written down, if you have one.
Additionally, because one of these rights is the right to not speak, there is a card to print out and carry with you in the event an officer attempts to question or arrest you. Some of which has been copied and pasted below:
Hand this card to the officer, and remain silent.
The card explains that you are exercising your right to refuse to answer any questions until you have talked with a lawyer.
' Please be informed that I am choosing to exercise my right to remain silent and my right to refuse to answer your questions. If I am detained, I request to contact an attorney immediately. I am also exercising my right to refuse to sign anything until I consult with my attorney. Thank you. '
While this may not be enough or even offer much for anyone living in fear, I hope if you've found this it will offer at least a tiny bit of comfort. Click here for the link.
Now for a word to those who think they they are justified in supporting Trump's racist, inhumane attack on 'illegal' immigrants (are none of you aware that if you are of European descent you, too, are an immigrant- this country was invaded by immigrants). Let's go over a summary of you cruel beliefs and lies, as well as what the truth to those lies regarding "illegal" immigrants really are.
If you believe in the deportation and illegal immigration that is going on, you support the following facts as well. To do so and not be bothered is not only heartless but also shows your privilege -which most of you deny-, your false feelings of superiority, your ignorance (or most likely your stupidity), and your inhumane depravity.
Supporting immigration bans and deportations means you are supporting the following… From words to actions…all of it is a disgrace to humanity.
First, starting with labels… To define human beings as legal or illegal is sick enough in my opinion, but to then support and also be okay with their detainment and deportation despite what it means to their safety or their very lives?
Oh and let's not forget the fact that you also are supporting ripping people from their mothers, fathers, grandparents, wives, husbands, their children. And the impact on these people, including the innocent children, never strikes your alleged pro-life beliefs of being savage or gods forbid, wrong.
People are suffering in numbers virtually uncountable; in ways most people cannot even conceive. The fear they face even just sending their children to school or going to work no one can understand unless they are living it which you obviously are not being a supporter.
Worse yet, the very arrest and detainment process in itself is not even done to the standard being considered creditable, much less considerate or humane. Trump officials have been caught in the illegal act of "bullying" police departments into doing work ICE "legally" cannot do, such as entering a person's residence without a warrant. Some police departments surprisingly have brought these attempts to national attention and declined taking part in their actions publicly, but not all have been so kind.
We can see more cruelty in the arrest and detainment process by looking at just one story of a woman in Texas. This proves no place is safe, not even medical care is taken into consideration, nor does safety come even after a person has been admitted to a hospital. They made this last month when ICE invaded the hospital room of a woman with a brain tumor, tying her ankles and wrists before dragging her to a 'detention center', cutting off her ability to contact the outside world -this included doctors and family.
All of this from self righteous "people" who support this for one of the following (emphasized by Trump's lies)…
…immigrants from China and Vietnam and India more broadly, Trump in April of this year said our "jobs are being stolen … like candy from a baby." In August 2015, Rasmussen—a conservative-leaning polling group—found that 51% of respondents believe "illegal immigrants are taking jobs away from U.S. citizens."
Research has found the reality of "illegal immigrants""illegal immigrants" in America to be the exact opposite of Trump's claims. This is but a small portion of many studies you can easily locate for yourself by some easy research.
"Immigrant workers are actively lured to the United States largely by big business employers who don't want to pay decent wages. But American families also rely on cheap goods and services to maintain a sense of material status. Also, after decades of wage stagnation where we're all working more and more hours to make ends meet, U.S.-born workers rely on low-wage nannies and housekeepers and other service workers to pick up the slack of family life. According to data cited by the Wall Street Journal, every 1 new immigrant creates 1.2 new jobs for local workers.
"…considering that comprehensive immigration reform—legislation both parties once supported—would boost employment, investment and productivity and grow the tax base, the jobs case against undocumented immigrants is increasingly hard to make."
Next, somehow these people have began to claim –incorrectly– immigrants are a drain to public benefits. Trump, like most anti's, depend only on fake, fabricated or deceptive facts known as alternative facts; never do they have a respectable source to cite.
As Time so accurately puts it:
Citing a study by an anti-immigrant organization, Trump said: "illegal immigrant households receive far more in welfare benefits" than native citizens.That assertion has been disputed by the conservative Cato Institute, which actually found that they are less likely to use welfare benefits than citizens—both in terms of frequency and dollar amount.
How can that statement ever be true when it has been made illegal for undocumented immigrants to obtain public benefits. They do not qualify for food stamps, Medicaid or any of the other public benefits despite the fact that they pay approximately $13 billion in payroll taxes annually (that's a net gain, by the way).
They help to fund the public benefits they cannot receive yet the very same people complaining about this false issue could or can or even do receive public benefits of all sort.
To take it one step further, if people took a look at the 1996 welfare law, they would learn that not even legal immigrants don't have access to public benefits until they've been in America for more than five years.
As for Social Security, Trump and his deceitful supporters would have us believe that illegal immigrants also don't pay money towards these benefits but take advantage of it, nevertheless.
The reality is very different.
Illegal immigrants, again, are not even eligible to collect Social Security (SSA) benefits. Despite that, they still are responsible for paying $100 billion in Social Security. According to a statement by the SSA to CNNMoney regarding illegal immigrants and social security benefits:
"They are paying an estimated $15 billion a year into Social Security with no intention of ever collecting benefits," Stephen Goss, chief actuary of the SSA told CNNMoney. "Without the estimated 3.1 million undocumented immigrants paying into the system, Social Security would have entered persistent shortfall of tax revenue to cover payouts starting in 2009," he said.
Stephen Goss went on to say how vital these workers are in maintaining as well as improving, quote,
"…the effects of the decline in U.S.-born workers paying into the system."
FURTHER, the Social Security Board of Trustees projects by 2037 that the system won't any longer be able to pay rightful benefits promised to "American citizens".
These allegations of "illegal" immigrants being the reason for unemployment, accusing them of stealing, abusing or whatever other hateful alternative "facts" can be verified if people are willing to do some research and reading. I've addressed a few above, but for more facts or simple information, don't use your same biased resources but instead use an independent resource so you can become aware of
what you are saying, before you speak.
I hope those of you who were unaware will now head off to research the real facts, not the racist, biased ones planted in their minds via Fox News or Donald Trump.
With too many people and families in America facing –unrightfully so,- being ripped apart from their families, taken back to a violent or dangerous situation or country, just to name a few circumstances going on now with the "bans" and raids on people for no reason, I'd think knowing what you believe and support as your politics would be made the ever more important, for those who care for the consideration and care of other human lives.

February 23rd Nationwide Protests to Protect Individual Privacy From FBI and Government
We're NOT protesting Apple, they are fighting back against this too. We're protesting the government's dangerous attempt to undermine our security by demanding a backdoor.- Below
The government is searching for an easy way to access and monitor all of us with iPhones. I've always been an Apple supporter; now more than ever for not simply selling us out and making a new OS with a backdoor for the FBI. They at least are resisting.
The AP states:
"Apple is fighting the court order issued in the case, arguing that the special software sought by the FBI could be used to break into millions of other iPhones. The FBI contends Apple is exaggerating the security risks of complying with the court order in a marketing ploy aimed at selling more iPhones.
Fight for the Future believes Apple's concerns are warranted and is hoping the protests will persuade the Obama administration to take a stand against the way the FBI is trying to break into Farook's iPhone, said Evan Greer, the group's campaign director."
Of course the Government thus far is supporting the FBI's attack on the people and Apple. And the abusive, brutal and cruel NYPD has said the encryption Apple uses is, "A Gift From God to Criminals"….
That all by itself should be a huge red flag to all of us. Our privacy is at risk of being further invaded and violated. Join me and Apple at protesting the government! (See Links Below)
And from another article:
This is a huge.
"This is really dangerous. The FBI just got a judge to order Apple to build a software "backdoor" to help them hack into an iPhone. They've been wanting to do this for years, but now they're exploiting the tragedy in San Bernardino, CA to push their agenda to weaken the security of all of our phones to enable more government surveillance.
Our basic safety and security is at stake! On Tuesday, February 23rd we will gather at Apple stores nationwide with two simple messages: "Don't Break Our Phones!" and "Secure Phones Save Lives!"
We're not protesting Apple, they are fighting back against this too. We're protesting the government's dangerous attempt to undermine our security by demanding a backdoor.
Scroll to the bottom of this event for a list of organized protests (coming soon), or simply show up at the most central Apple store in your town at 5:30pm. Check back soon for a simple tool that will allow you to turn your iPhone, tablet, or laptop into a protest sign you can bring to these events.
WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT:
Breaking the security features of our iPhones won't just hurt our privacy, it puts all of our safety at risk. Once a backdoor is built, it won't just be used by governments or law enforcement. It will enable malicious hackers, foreign governments, terrorists, thieves and stalkers to use our data against us.
What the FBI is doing is dangerous, but it's also illegal. Apple has a right to offer customers secure devices that protect our most sensitive information. According to the ACLU, forcing Apple to hack their own customers is unconstitutional and will undermine our privacy and safety without improving national security.
So far, Apple is vowing to fight this unlawful and reckless demand by the government, but we need to show them that they're not standing alone. Join us at one of these important events to stand up for everyone's safety."

Never Forget Aaron Swartz; A Revolutionary Hero…
Three years ago this world was robbed of a beautiful life, a wonderful soul…his name, Aaron Swartz. It is a very emotional topic for me, I'd like to write more about him and about all the good he has without a doubt done for us, given to us; but right now I can't find the words.
In the below video from "The Young Turks" we are given information on just how unjust, biased and discriminatory the prison sentences are. Of course with drug offenders, who should not be in prison either, the mandatory minimums are outrageous. But comparing what Aaron Swartz "did" -wanting to help people, understanding that education should be free; and so more- to other offenses that people would think carry more time than he was facing; but don't.
Note, under 15% of prisoners are in for murder or sexual offenses, 95% of those last offenders will haunt the streets shortly after doing time, if they do in fact do time. The majority being drug offenders who are over 56% of the prison population. The reason I note this is because these laws he goes over make it seem the American government doesn't have an agenda; but it does.
That can clearly be seen if you look at the numbers and the crimes; if you look at the man I deem a hero, Aaron Swartz; who was facing an outrageous amount of time for doing nothing more than trying to help make this world a better place. I do blame the government for his death; his suicide.
The government was afraid of the intelligence and awareness Aaron had. His gift mixed in with his intelligence and concern for social issues made him someone they feared because they can't grasp it; they don't desire to… Their mind and heart are in it for the money; the people are the last thing they care for.
And thus, we lost an amazing, amazing activist & caring, kind and brilliant man 3 years ago….

1985 Bombing in Philly & Oregon's White Privilege
I am absolutely shocked to only now be finding out about the horrific slaughter that took place in Philadelphia against the Black men, women and children living together and involved in a group called MOVE back in 1985. It mirrors almost perfectly what is going on in Oregon, and it answers the speculative question "what if it were Black Lives Matter protesters instead"- though we already know that tragic answer, this gives us even more solid footing to stand on and sadly validate the sickest outcome.
Cops & Person From MOVE, 1985-the Fatal Bombing in Philadelphia
Oregon Anti-Government Organization- Meeting with Police
So, you mean to try and tell me, two groups who feel wronged by the government get treated totally different;
yet racism doesn't exist; white privilege doesn't exist?
No one can actually truly believe that unless they've brainwashed themselves.
If it were Black Live Matters protesters they'd already have been killed, I think everyone knows that. They wouldn't be holding press conferences, shaking hands with police, posting to Facebook asking for "supplies" or "gift packages" as they sat there in a Federal building armed and willing to fire or die, as they are so proud to say. During peaceful protests Black Lives Matters protesters get arrested, beaten and we all know far worse.
When I found out that MOVE pretty much wanted the same thing in
Ferguson; Black Lives Matter-Peaceful Protest for Justice in the Murder of Innocence. I want to hold this child so bad. How many white kids are afraid of cops?
principal, meaning, they were anti-government and wanted to self govern, you would think the same reality they faced, the white people in Oregon would be facing, too. They also are anti-government. They also are armed and happy to tell you they'll fire. But what is happening is the government rubbing our face in the fact that they are racist and think they can get away with these crimes.
I am ashamed to admit I only am recently learning about what happened in 1985 to those in that tragic slaughter. I've just bought the book, and will be watching the documentary afterward. Regardless of being anti-government, there is no need for a bombing turned inferno -which would then engulf homes around it as well, leaving 200 plus people homeless because the Mayor ordered the fire fighters NOT to respond to the fires.
As people tried to escape they were faced with two options; be shot down by military weapons at the hands of racist cops or go back inside and burn alive.
The sick mayor afterwards would call it a perfect operation; he would also go on to be re-elected. No punishment other than the shaking of a finger for the "reckless bombing" was done to him or the city.
During the trial to figure out what had caused this bombing, one of two women were asked by a government official in court if her son beat her or was otherwise violent towards her, she answers with how irrelevant the question is, asks if he will be questioning the other side about domestic abuse and obviously upset she makes her point and goes silent. His question was demeaning and uncalled for; absolutely irrelevant to the point of the case which was: why did Philadelphia drop two pounds of military explosives on a house with men, women and children in it?
In the midst of all the emotion, the woman sitting next to the above mother asked the official the following question; a question that's actually relevant: And she asks,
"I just want to make it clear in my mind, so that I understand, am I to assume that the bomb was dropped on MOVE people because Frank beat his mother?"
You can watch the trailer with this clip in it by clicking here.
Thirty years later in 2015 a writer born and raised in Philly wrote this very insightful article of that tragic May day in 1985, trying to understand why America would bomb it's own people. Not that it hasn't before. Black Wall Street and the community there suffered from another one of America's evil plots. Click here for the site that will take you to where you can find the documentary or click here if you are like me and first want to read the book.
If every man with a gun (and every woman, child,) can't be treated like these white males, then these white males shouldn't be treated as they are, either. If you are going to murder anyone for standing up against the government, then you must murder all.
But the government won't ever do that. Killing white people is "bad". Killing anyone else… That's just part of their job, apparently, and they are damn proud of it. So the question is, what the hell are we going to do to change this!?
Finally, knowing all of this, even though it is just touching the utmost basics, who in their right mind would say that the same thing or something of the like would not happen if those in Oregon were not white? Look at what happens on the streets to those who aren't white! That alone should give some sickening answers.
And how can anyone say that whites do not have a disgusting privilege? How can you not see that? How can you not want to fight it but instead abuse it? If you can't see the cruel and disgusting double standard when it comes to race in this country you have succeeded -or someone has- at putting you to sleep; it's time you wake up.

Taxpayers cannot sue the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs for incorporating religion into its health care programs for the nation's veterans, an appeals court has ruled.
The group was trying to end the department's practice of asking patients about their religion in "spiritual assessments," its use of chaplains to treat patients, and drug and alcohol treatment programs that incorporate religion. It claimed those practices violated the separation of church and state.
But the court ruled that federal taxpayers cannot challenge those expenditures. The court cited a U.S. Supreme Court decision last year in which the same group was not allowed to sue over President Bush's faith-based initiative.
Annie Laurie Gaylor, the foundation's co-president, criticized the ruling but said an appeal to the Supreme Court was unlikely. She said the group would look for VA patients who object to their treatment to be potential plaintiffs but said such a case would still be difficult to win.
"The courts are moving to the position where government can fund religious activities and endorse religion without restraint," she said. "It's really very disturbing."
Its spiritual assessments ask patients a series of questions about their faith, such as how often they attend church and how important religion is in their lives. Agency officials say the assessments help them determine patients' needs.


My favorite Janet song still. So, today is the 14th anniversary of "nipplegate" and she pretty much took the fall for what was clearly a planned stunt with her and Justin at the Superbowl. That day the term "wardrobe malfuntion" was coined. And us as broadcasters forever had to change the way we work thanks to stricter FCC rules for radio and tv.


Branching out beyond email and ensuring information is easily accessible were quoted as some of the key priorities for many professionals who gathered at SCCE's annual Compliance and Ethics Institute conference in Las Vegas, 15th – 18th October 2017.
The SnapComms team met with many delegates who talked about their challenges, goals, and personal experiences of communicating ethics and compliance-related information within their organization. Watch this short video compilation here.
Increasing employee awareness continues to be an issue.
"Email has its disadvantages. People don't see them, or know how to prioritize them," said one spokesperson.
The decline in email effectiveness has led to a renewed resolve to find better ways to communicate. Many delegates talked of broadening their approach to comms, to incorporate video, digital signage, internal tweeting, SMS, Intranet and more. Even virtual reality is being experimented within the coming year, said one spokesperson.
One of the biggest hindrances for this organizational function is lack of budget, ergo lack of resource. "There's still a mentality of 'If it's not broken, don't fix it'," said one representative.
Philip Nunn, General Manager of SnapComms, commented: "Nearly everyone we met were frustrated by the lack of internal resource allocated to their function. Organizations have good intentions to develop their ethics and compliance strategy, but for many, the funding's not there yet to support new initiatives.
"Another take-out was the importance of creativity when communicating to employees. It seems that creativity in both content and the channels used to get attention can make a big difference in message cut-through," adds Nunn.
