About Jurassic World 3 (2022):
The last movie in the "Jurassic World" franchise ended with dinosaurs free and walking around North America. The new movie, "Jurassic World: Dominion" will not follow a traditional movie structure. Colin Trevorrow revealed this to Collider in an interview. Chris Pratt let slip to MTV News that the film would follow the events. Since there was a three-year gap between the events of "Jurassic World" in 2015 and "Fallen Kingdom" in 2018, people thought that "Dominion" would also follow this pattern and be set in 2021.
Maisie Lockwood was a child in "Fallen Kingdom," but she is now a teenager in "Dominion." Director Colin Trevorrow spoke to Entertainment Weekly about Dodgson and what viewers can expect from him.

The Enterprise ended its notable 51-year career during a ceremony at its home port at Naval Station Norfolk.
The ship served in every major conflict since participating in a blockade during the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Thousands of former crew members, ship builders and their families lined a pier to bid farewell to one of the most decorated ships in the Navy.
Among those taking part in the ceremony was a former Capt. Jim Mulligan, who was held as a prisoner of war in Vietnam.
The Enterprise was the largest ship in the world at the time it was built, inheriting the nickname "Big E" from a famed World War II aircraft carrier.

Benin (place)
See all of Benin, there is 1 more in this node.
(place) by Gritchka Sat Feb 24 2001 at 20:43:35
Since independence on 1 August 1960, Dahomey had a strikingly volatile history. The list of presidents includes a military coup every second or third year:
Hubert Maga 1960-1963 (overthrown)
Col. Christophe Soglo 1963
Sourou-Migan Apithy 1964-1965 (overthrown)
Tahirou Congacou 1965 (interim; overthrown)
Gen. Christophe Soglo again 1965-1967 (overthrown)
Cmdr Maurice Kouandété 1967
Lt.Col. Alphonse Alley 1967-1968
Dr Emile Zinsou 1968-1969 (overthrown)
Paul-Emile de Souza 1969-1970
Hubert Maga again 1970-1972
Justin Ahomadegbe 1972 (overthrown)
Maj. Mathieu Kérékou 1972-1991
Nicéphore Soglo 1991-1996
Mathieu Kérékou again 1996-
The 1970 government was a rotating presidential council consisting of independence leaders Maga, Ahomadegbe, and Apithy to try to achieve stability, but when Kérékou seized power on 26 October 1972 he proclaimed a Marxist state, and changed Dahomey's name to the People's Republic of Benin on 30 November 1975.
He also changed the flag to a red star in the canton of a green field. The flag of the ruling party had the colours reversed.
In 1990 popular agitation for democracy led to the creation of a National Convention. Kérékou agreed to hold democratic elections, which were won by the economist Soglo. The new Republic of Benin (1 March 1990) restored the original Dahomey flag, a green hoist next to yellow above red.
However in 1996 Kérékou was re-elected. At one point he had converted to Islam and called himself Ahmed Kérékou, but he seems to be Mathieu again now. In the democratic climate the founding president Hubert Maga resumed a senior role and was much mourned on his death in May 2000. In the presidential elections of 2001, Soglo and Kérékou again opposed each other, but Soglo has withdrawn after irregularities in the first round.
The capital of Benin is Porto-Novo, though the largest city is Cotonou. In the interior is Abomey, capital of the former kingdom of Dahomey, one of the most powerful West African states of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries: see under Dahomey for a history before colonial rule.
Portugal retained the old slave trade fort of Ouidah (Whydah) after independence. It was called São João Baptista da Ajudá and was ruled from São Tomé e Príncipe. It was absorbed by Dahomey in 1961.
The old kingdom of Benin, not the same as the kingdom of Dahomey giving rise to modern Benin, is famous for its magnificent bronze sculpture. Old Benin was in what is now Nigeria, centred on Benin City. Bronze casting technology is said to have been brought to Benin from Ife in the late fourteenth century by a sculptor called Igueghae. It became much more stylized than the Ife style. Most Benin bronzes glorify the Oba or king.
They are created with the lost mould technique: sculpted in wax, encased in clay, fired, and filled with molten bronze. The clay mould is then broken away.
Sir Richard Burton led an expedition to try to suppress human sacrifice in 1863, and the kingdom was placed under a British Resident in 1899, after a "punitive expedition" to avenge deaths of British emissaries led to the defeat and deposition of Oba Ovonramwen in 1897. The fabulous wealth of Benin City, including many great bronzes, was carried off and much of it is now in the British Museum.

Good Morning Cleveland Sunday at 8am
911 Call: "They just floored it into the lake"
By: Kristin Volk, Faith Boone
A 15-year-old Bainbridge Township boy risked his life to try to save a man who drove a car into a Geauga County reservoir.

"I wanted to make sure the person was okay," said Samuel Sell who attempted to rescue the man. "I didn't want anyone to die. So I was trying to do what I would want other people to do if I were in that situation."
A person who called 911 told a dispatcher that someone had drove their car into the lake. The caller said there were people still in the car and they were not responding when witnesses tried to get their attention. The full 911 call can be heard in the player above.
The Auburn Township Fire Department said the victim, who is 30 years old, was not injured.
The victim's name has not been released.
Sell is uninjured too.
The crash happened at about 12:30 p.m. on Sunday at LaDue Reservoir where Sell said he was fishing at the time.
"We heard a big splash, and we both looked at each other and thought 'what happened?" added Sell.
FOLLOW: newsnet5.com on Facebook and Twitter
That's when Sell noticed a black Ford Fusion in the water, about 150 feet off shore, and swam out to the victim.
"It's very commendable on his behalf," said Mike Cardaman, assistant fire chief of Auburn Township Fire.
Sell approached the victim with a knife to try to break the car windows.
In the midst of his rescue attempt, firefighters arrived on scene and used Sell's knife to successfully break all of the windows and get the man out.
Cardaman said the water was up to the man's neck at the time of the rescue. Cardaman also said a medical condition of the victim may have contributed to the crash, but the Geauga County Sheriff is still investigating the incident.

MLS transfer news and rumors
Chris Gloster linked to Red Bulls return
Former academy and youth national team standout has been on the outs at PSV Eindhoven
By Ross Haley Dec 19, 2020, 8:44am EST
Share All sharing options for: Chris Gloster linked to Red Bulls return
Photo by Photo Prestige/Soccrates/Getty Images
Ah, the rumor mill, grinding innuendos and sources into discourse for consumption by the general public. This week, the connected name is familiar to New York Red Bulls fans, a former player from the academy who tried his luck in Europe. The perpetual stew behind the MLS Transfers Twitter account published that the club is interested in left back Chris Gloster from PSV Eindhoven. He had signed a three-year deal with the 24-time Dutch champions in August of 2019.
While accepting the validity of rumors can never truly be confirmed and largely occupy a sphere of their own, this one is plausible. Gloster fits a similar classification as starting fullback Kyle Duncan, recently signed goalkeeper Luca Lewis, and a few other whispers of Americans abroad being contacted by the Red Bulls. Players try their hand in Europe, finding breaking through difficult, before returning to the domestic league in the hopes of securing playing time and a quick bounce back.
These talents, often current or former youth internationals, possess both a high level of ability and unrealized potential, but they also have the seasoning and perspective gained from some time spent abroad. Consider them a speculative signing that doesn't take up a valuable international spot and won't face cultural or adjustment struggles. In the face of the challenges presented by MLS roster rules and regulations, the returning young American is a reasonable, low stakes gamble with the possibility of yielding a sky-high return on the field and in the transfer market. In this case, there would also be the added benefit of signing a player who understands the system and playing style.
The Red Bulls could always use an upgrade at fullback. The position is perhaps the most important in the club's high pressing system, demanding top-tier fitness, mistake-free play, and constant involvement on both sides of the ball. While Jason Pendant was serviceable at left back, he failed to impress and stake his claim as the undisputed starter. First-round SuperDraft selection Patrick Seagrist was released at the end of the season, leaving open a spot that necessitates reliable depth and a future starter on a development track.
Gloster joined the Red Bulls academy in 2013 and made one appearance for the USL reserve side in 2016. Instead of signing an MLS contract, "those around him felt it was time to take the next step." After trials with several European clubs, the choice was made to join Hannover 96. While in Germany, the 20-year-old never managed to escape the reserves and eventually moved to PSV following an impressive performance at the 2019 U-20 World Cup.
Upon signing with the Dutch giants, Gloster took somewhat of a swipe at MLS in stating that in Europe "if you are good enough, it does not matter how old you are." But Gloster has yet to make an appearance in the Eredivisie despite frequent training with the first team and has recently gone several weeks without making an appearance for the club's reserve side. The Montclair native is still a regular inclusion in the youth national team setup and in contention for the Olympic qualifying roster, a brightly lit stage known to attract interest and raise market values.
An attack-minded fullback with a knack for cutting off lanes presents a tactically appealing option for a high pressing system. Once considered deficient in the final third, Gloster is a productive player, frequently pushing forward and getting involved in the build-up and counter-attacks. He is composed in possession and a fairly accurate passer, particularly at the mid-range distance. His one-on-one defending against isolated dribblers could improve, although it is far less of a liability since the 2019 U-20 World Cup, and pass interception remains a strength.
Ignoring notions of great fit and conceivable but unconfirmed interest, the question becomes whether PSV would approve of a loan or transfer, which can only be answered by an official press release. Maybe Gloster signs for the Red Bulls this off-season, maybe he doesn't. A rumor is a rumor, but this one is fairly plausible and the move could be beneficial to the player and club. While this particular homecoming transfer of a young American might not happen, recent history and gossip suggest more are on the way.

Bench warrant for NAWEC Qpower bank account hackers
By admin March 24, 2021 No Comments
The accused: Godwin Ojukun and Frederick Felix Chainacherem are charged with two counts of criminal offences relating to their alleged involvement in the hacking of the Qpower account. They now face conspiracy to commit a felony and money laundering charges.
Chief Inspector E. Sarr for the Inspector General of Police said the two are currently apprehended in Guinea Bissau awaiting extradition. He explained that the Interpol office in Banjul had requested for their extradition, but their counterparts in Bissau are requesting for a bench warrant of arrest from a court of law.
Sarr, in making the application for the bench warrant of arrest against the two accused persons, pleaded with the court to grant the application in order to extradite the two.
The principal magistrate said she was satisfied with the application adding it had merit. : In this regard, she granted the application and issued a bench warrant of arrest against the two accused persons.
On the first count, they were charged with conspiracy to commit felony. According to the particulars of offence, the two accused persons, in the year 2021 in Banjul and diverse places in The Gambia, conspired between themselves and jointly hacked the National Water and Electricity Company (NAWEC) Qpower bank account number 003101010102011137 at Agib Bank, knowing same to be proceed of a crime, for the purpose of concealing the illicit origin of the funds to evade traces.
On the second and final count, the two were charged with money laundering contrary to section 22 (a) and (b) of the Anti-Money Laundering Act Combatting Terrorist Finance Act 2012. According to the particulars of the offence, the two accused persons, in the year 2021 in Banjul and diverse places in The Gambia, jointly hacked the NAWEC Qpower bank account at Agib Bank, knowing same to have been the proceed of a crime, for the purpose of concealing the illicit origin of the funds to evade traces.
The case was adjourned to the 26th April 2021 at 10 am for mention and for further hearing. Media reports suggested that the amount hacked is believed to be to a tune of eight million dalasis. Foroyaa will continue to follow the case.


Huge reserves of coal formed a quarter of a billion years ago in a country now called the Galilee. One-hundred-and-fifty years of coal mining. I'm reading about severe loss of habitat for the southern black-throated finch. The anguish of the Wangan and Jagalingou people of central-western Queensland.
The fragile Carmichael River, and precious groundwater. Corruption and tax evasion. I'm reading about institutional inertia, the "game of mates", the fossil fuel and climate denial industries. Bleaching events depleting biodiversity along the Great Barrier Reef (James Bradley, The Monthly, April 2019).
In January 2019, the NSW Land and Environment Court rejected an application to build a coalmine at Rocky Hill, north of Newcastle, on the grounds it would contribute to climate change.
I read: "Children and young people of all ages gathered with their supporters for the School Strike 4 Climate on Friday March 15 in every capital city and some 55 other centres around Australia. Strikes took place in more than 100 countries across the world.
"Bold and creative, they came in their masses (150,000 Australia-wide, ten times the size of the November strikes) to advocate for a stop to Adani's coal mine, no new fossil fuel projects and 100 per cent renewable energy by 2030" (Miriam Pepper, SSH, April 2019).
I read about Mary's love for the One in pain and peril – the sacred Stranger, the God embodied. Mary's prayerful action – devotion, protest, risk. Her genuine commitment in the context of scorn, greed and abstract ideas (economics).
It's something akin to love for the Galilee Basin, the southern black-throated finch, the tuskfish and potato cods of the Reef, the manta rays and tiger sharks. It's something like refuting the simplistic notion of productivity or jobs over ecological sustainability and wellbeing.
"You have poor people with you always. But you won't always have me," says Jesus. "There will be vulnerable and endangered beings long after I'm gone" – a comic retort that can be heard either as lamenting inequity or as an indictment of injustice, but certainly not as license for neglect of those in need.
I read about Lazarus, the resuscitation. Lazarus bound hand and foot with linen strips. Speechless. I read – John surely intends it in contrast – about the empty tomb, the resurrection. Linen wrappings on the ground. The risen Christ speaking words of intimacy … peace … inspiration … blessing … commissioning.
In this last regular week of Lent, then, we experience something of what Paul calls "the power of the resurrection" – a sharing in Christ's suffering love, a being formed into a Christ-like pattern of death and new life.
The "high calling of God in Christ Jesus" has to do with love … for the Galilean and the Galilee … bold and creative protest, prayerful action, genuine commitment in the context of scorn, greed and abstract ideas, generosity toward the least and the last, radical hospitality … not mere resuscitation (of the same old corruptible existence) but new life with others in the world … more just, more free, more sustainable … renewable … as in a New Jerusalem with a river and a tree of life … Amen.


The Cadillac SRX is a mid sized luxury crossover introduced in 2004 on the Sigma platform with the option of a 3.6L gasoline engine equipped with the 5L40E automatic transmission or a 4.6L gasoline engine equipped with a 6L50E automatic transmission.
Four wheel drive versions for both engines come with the Borg Warner BW-4476 transfer case. The BW4476 for the SRX originally came with the CT-HV-080 chain and later superseded by the CT-HV-095. The 095 was developed for the Cadillac 265 and 295. Our understanding is the 095 chain is a bit stronger than the 080 chain.
A common problem arising with this unit is a stretched chain. If caught and fixed early enough the damage should be limited just to the chain.
The common symptom is a popping noise coming from underneath the vehicle, especially when at a dead stop and speeding up. The noise could be heard when the vehicle is under a heavy load.
The important thing to keep in mind is to replace the chain as soon as you suspect a problem so the sprockets do not get ruined, thus increasing the cost of the repair.


If travelers are flying out of this Miami airport, they may want to get there sooner than later. Not because of traffic, but because one of their concourses will be shutting down earlier than usual.
Miami International Airport will be shutting down Concourse G early at 1 p.m starting on Saturday and reopening Monday. Passengers will have no access to the terminal after the checkpoint closes. Airlines flying out during afternoon hours have been forced to shift flights to other terminals throughout the airport. If passengers arrive after 1 p.m, they will still be able to exit the terminal normally, but all businesses in the wing, including restaurants will be closed.
"Due to an increased number of TSA screeners not reporting to work, we have decided to take this precautionary step and relocate about 12 flights to adjoining concourses in the afternoons," Miami International spokesman Greg Chin said. "We felt we had to make a decision before the weekend. They're erring on the side of caution." Miami International is one of the largest airports in the country and a top gateway to Latin America. With TSA workers calling in sick at two times the national average, TSA and other officials weren't confident they would have enough screeners at all of the airport's checkpoints.
Concourse G was selected because of its minimal traffic over others. United Airlines is the biggest carrier flying out of the terminal but generally hosts flights for Aruba Airlines, Bahamasair, Frontier and Sun Country. Chin said only 12 flights leave from G after 1 p.m. on a typical business day. Regardless, Miami airport had been advising passengers to arrive early since the start of the government shutdown. "Due to the federal funding lapse, we recommend arriving at least 2 hours before your domestic flight and 3 hours before your international flight this weekend," the airport tweeted.
Today is the first day that federal agents, including TSA agents, will be missing a paycheck, so industry observers are trying to see how that affects travel.


Your boss has just asked you to plan the event that everyone in the office looks forward to annually and the last time that you planned an event was Aunty Kim's 60th birthday at the local hall around the corner from her home (we all know those places…). The place had no space for entertainment, the food was BYO and there was definitely no Instagramable moments that you could to post to all social media feeds. You are searching all over the internet for the top 8 tips for planning an event, but can't find what you need.
The planning aspect is scaring you quite a bit as you have been given a great budget (thanks boss!!), but you don't know where to start… That is where we at Holiday Inn Melbourne on Flinders come in, we live and breathe planning the ideal party/meeting/birthday party/christening etc.
Our meetings and events team have come together and debated on the top 8 tips for planning an event that we learnt from our recent launch party (#HILaunch2018), so that you won't need to wing it.
During our recent launch even though it was 6 degrees (#thanksMelbourne), our 100 guests were having too much fun to notice. Perhaps that's because we have great heaters our on the terrace that kept everyone warm, but we like to think its because we worked hard with our suppliers and partners. We transformed our pool terrace to a 'Touch of Spring', the theme that people were talking about for weeks after because of the amazing floristry that Flowers Vasette created.
Our pool was transformed into a burst of colour with balloons that floated around the entire space. This was then offset by the lights around the pool and terrace area. We worked with our amazing AV Company Audio Visual Dynamics to deck out all of our spaces with brightly coloured lights that showcased our artwork in our spaces and the beautiful greenery in our terrace area.
What is a moment you ask? It's when you turn the party from good to mind-blowing by showing off everything that you have planned. This could be as simple as awarding staff with prizes or even unveiling a product at a launch party.
For us, this was opening of the blackout blinds at our launch party to officially declare that the spaces were open. Prior to this the blinds were shut, so that people could not see our spaces. We worked with our entertainers to make this happen.
Organise to have a host who can introduce the festivities, keep the crowd entertained and feel welcomed. When selecting a host make sure that they know your objectives. For example it's the CEO's retirement party and you want to make sure that he knows how much he/she will be missed by all. Brief the host on the timings of the event and anything else that they may need to know.
When was the last time that you attended an event and actually stayed until the end? It felt like all of our attendees stayed as they were having too much fun to leave our party. We had a photobooth that posted gif's or still photos straight to your social media feeds (thanks One Shot Media), a DJ that was playing awesome tunes that just made you want to dance and entertainers in each of our spaces.
Everyone likes winning things at a meeting or event, no matter what it is. Not only does it keep your attendees entertained but it also keeps them there until the draw. This could be something as simple as a bottle of wine to a travel voucher.
Approximately 1 in 3 Australians actively use Instagram, and we know if it wasn't on Instagram did it really happen? We worked with the amazing florists at Flowers Vasette to create an epic flowerwall that not only smelt amazing but looked incredible on photos. It is simple to also create your own wall, just look at Pinterest for inspiration. We also worked with Place Settings and DecorIt to showcase The Arcade and what a dinner setup could look like.
Also the entertainers that we spoke about in tip 4, ask them to encourage attendees to take selfies with the event hashtag.
We can't stress how important it is for your meeting or event to be run like a tight ship. Make sure that everyone knows the objectives of the meeting or event at a pre-briefing. Run the team through the timings, any VIPs that may be attending and anything that they will need to promote.
The motto at Holiday Inn Melbourne on Flinders is #oneteamonedream. This means that it doesn't matter what your role is, we can all step in and help make the event a success.
Did you really think that we didn't feed the people that attended the party? We worked with our amazing chef's to create an epic menu that ensured that nobody went home hungry, and our bar team that made sure everyone's glasses were topped up.
Our last word of advice would be: It's a party make them feel welcome and treat them like you would a guest in your home.
We hope that our top 8 tips for planning event help your event/meeting a success!

Seven Quartets of Becoming
A Transformative Yoga Psychology Based on the Diaries of Sri Aurobindo	by:	Debashish Banerji
The book constellates Sri Aurobindo's approach with transpersonal psychology, contemporary lineages of phenomenology, so as to develop a transformative Yoga psychology redefining the boundaries and possibilities of the human and opening up lines of self-practice towards a wholeness of being and becoming.
Category: New Release, Philosophy
Pages : xvii, 441 p.
Bibliographic Details : Maps, b/w photographs, Appendices; Glossary; Bibliography; Indices
Size: 23 cm.
Groomed in a modern academic tradition and post-Enlightenment ideals of creative freedom and social critique, Sri Aurobindo (1872-1950) turned his attention to yoga and the limits of consciousness in its ability to relate to and transform nature. In the process, he documented scrupulously his experiments and experiences based on a synergistic existential framework of practice.
Debashish Banerji correlates the approach to yoga Sri Aurobindo took in his diaries with his later writings, to derive a description of human subjectivity and its powers. Banerji constellates Sri Aurobindo's approach with transpersonal psychology and contemporary lineages of phenomenology and ontology, to develop a transformative yoga psychology redefining the boundaries and possibilities of the human and opening up lines of self-practice towards a wholeness of being and becoming.
Both scholar and Yogi, Aurobindo (1872-1950) carefully documented the unfolding of spiritual consciousness starting shortly after his deep revelatory experiences while in prison in 1908. His observations were recently published in a two volume set, The Record of Yoga. Debashish Banerji has analyzed this work and offers a detailed, clear, systematic and inspirational interpretation of how the Yoga of Sri Aurobindo may be understood and practiced.

Seven Quartets of Becoming 2012
Vedanta for the Western World by: Christopher Isherwood ₹1,700.00 ₹1,530.00
Vedanta for the Western World is a collection of sixty-eight articles appeared in a magazine having the same title during 1938-45 by eminent scholars of international repute such as Aldous Huxley, Allan Hunter, Gerald Heard and Swami Prabhavananda reflecting on the varied aspects and universal reflections of Vedanta, with an Introduction by Christopher Isherwood. Vedanta, the Vedic philosophy per se, and not time-specific, focuses on three fundamental propositions that man's real nature is divine; aim of human life is to realize this divine nature; and all religions are essentially in agreement as far as this divine concept is concerned. The essays featured in this volume imbibe and exude the same philosophy being best suited to the understanding of new generation audience, especially the one that belongs to the Western world. This unique volume stands out in its genera of works due to a wide gamut of topics featured in it under the umbrella banner Vedanta. It enables every student of Vedanta know the essence of the Vedic philosophies from the perspectives of both Indian and Western scholars and men of merit.
An Introduction to Jain Philosophy by: Parveen Jain ₹1,600.00 ₹1,440.00
It is well-known that the Jain tradition has been extremely influential in the development of Indian thought and culture. The Jain tradition teaches that there is an interdependence of perception, knowledge, and conduct unified by an axiomatic principle of non-violence in thought, speech, and action. In this way, non-violence defines the core of the Jain tradition, which has had a profound effect on other dharmic traditions originating in India. Jain Dharma is so significant that in some ways it may be incomplete to attempt to understand other Indian traditions (such as Buddhism or Hinduism) without knowing the basics of the Jain tradition, since these other traditions developed in an ongoing dialogue with the insights and wisdom of Jain respondents and visionaries.
This book enables the reader to enjoy a comprehensive journey into the intricate world of Jain thought and culture in a way that is philosophical in its compelling rationality, deeply spiritual in its revelations, yet accessible in its language. The organization of this book allows the reader to engage in an overview of the central teachings of the Jain tradition, but also to ascertain the profundity of its depths. It can be read with equal efficacy in succession from beginning to end, or pursued by individual topics of interest to the reader. Either strategy will have the same effect: a systematic understanding of what the timeless teachings of Jain thinkers have to say about the universal issues of the human condition – and how we might understand our harmonious relationship with other living entities as a powerful and effective spiritual journey.
Jadavpur Journal of Philosophy by: Madhumita Chattopadhyay ₹300.00 ₹270.00
This book proposes to take up the question of Universal Causation to examine thoroughly as how far it is right to regard Brahman as the Universal Cause and how far strakra himself lent his support to each of the inter-conflicting schools of Vednta. This book should, therefore, benefit all who are devoted to the philosophic teachings of Advaita Vednta and its preceptors.
Towards a New Age of Nonviolence by: ₹1,400.00 ₹1,260.00
Towards a New Age of Nonviolence is a compilation of scholarly articles on Gandhi – his philosophy of nonviolence (ahimsa) and nonviolent action (satyagraha) – are the themes encompassing the volume. In a materialistic world of today, people hold guns and grudges, and for the slightest glitch, they pronounce wars that do not end. The fearful consequence of this would lead to human extinction very soon. In such a detrimental and precarious scenario, the only way out is to embrace the Gandhian way of living.
The book comprises 14 articles on Gandhi and his values, its relevance to industrial age, views on nonviolence, economics of gram swaraj, significance of peace and tolerance in an era of explosive technology and his spiritual and ethical doctrine in the context of current global conflicts. The book is sure, a must read for everyone who wants to see a better world.
Seven Weeks In 'Little Tibet': Philosophic Travelling in Ladakh by: Hella Naura ₹250.00 ₹225.00
A German lady, a veteran Yoga practitioner, travels to Ladakh, also known as 'Little Tibet'. There she dives as much into life in its bustling capital Leh as into moonlike landscapes and Buddhist locales. She spends a week in a solitary meditation cabin, goes on a trek and meets not just Ladakhis but also interesting fellow travellers from all over the globe.
So is this a travelogue? Or are these musings in a journal? Yes, but also much more. Charmed by her chatty narration, spiced with irony and humour, you are gently led to contemplations on life and living, changes wrought by globalization, man-woman relationships, cultural differences, loss of identities, fear as an inherent part of the human psyche and the burgeoning objects of enjoyment versus the diminishing capacity to enjoy.
Before you know it, you realise that HellaNaura's deep reflections have awakened in you a need to integrate some spiritual viewpoints into your busy modern life. Why? Because her experiences and many joys, in spite of several difficulties, are a proof that a 'spiritual' outlook is an effective antidote to the crafty seduction by material and sensual gratifications. And, as she notes, even parts of Ladakhi society – formerly happy, prosperous and woven tightly together with warmth and intimacy – seem to be succumbing to its lures.

Deanna Devore shares "A Cause", a song about searching for a reason (Premiere) - GRUNGECAKE

Deanna Devore shares "A Cause", a song about searching for a reason (Premiere)

"A Cause" starts off with a kick that mirrors a beating heart. Perhaps, it is synonymous with the way you feel when in a search for something unjustifiable. Before the chorus begins, that metaphorical heart stops and ushers us into the mental web of deciding your next move. We've all been there.
Deanna Devore explains the premise behind the record, "The song is about searching for a reason, even when there isn't necessarily one." And yet still feeling determined to find it," she continued.
A lot of people survive their phases, redefining moments and life-changing experiences. Others aren't ever the same. For every time I've had to start over it wasn't easy, but every time, it was worth the change. After going through what they call 'it', you get to learn to cut your ties and thank yourself in the long run. We all deserve to be in better spaces. So as the music suggests, rid yourselves of the shadows of your past.
Deanna Devore has a voice that can soothe an infant. If you're a new parent or you just love good new music, lend Devore your ear. You or your child may fall in love with the feeling it evokes.

NEXT STOP HONOLULU tells the story of the 3-foot gauge Oahu Railway & Land Company and its railroad. It traces the line's history, from it's founding and construction beginning in the late 1880's through it robust growth during the boom years of the 1920's, into its decline during the Great Depression and rejuvenation and explosive activity during World War II. During the War it was basically worn out, was severely damaged by the Tsunami of 1946 and was abandoned in 1947.The book's chapters cover the history of the railroad and the industries and people it served.
The book is full of excerpts from historic newspapers and magazines. Numerous sidebars describe such things as hotels, special trains, and people. The wartime chapters include topics such as martial law, Hotel Street, and the experiences of the service men and women riding on the trains. There are also articles on the standard gauge coal wharf, the army's Mid-Pacific Railroad, the 41st Coast Artillery's private railroad, the army's "secret" railway, Schofield Barracks, and much more.
The book has scores of photographs of locomotives, railroad cars of all kinds and scenes along the right-of-way. It's a reference for students of Hawaiian history and a delight for rail fans.
This book is the culmination of an interest spanning well over half my life. I arrived in Hawaii in 1971 to take a job crewing on the Seraphim, a charter sailboat based in Pokai Bay, near Waianae on Oahu's leeward coast. The business soon went broke, but I was determined to stay in the Islands and found a job as a technician with the tiny cable TV company serving the rural Waianae Coast, an area otherwise without television reception. As I followed cable lines up and down every country road I became aware of the narrow gauge railroad tracks which led up the coastline and into a broad valley which was home to the Lualualei Naval Ammunition Depot. Residents explained that during the Vietnam War, Navy trains had hauled ordnance from the Depot to ships in the West Loch arm of Pearl Harbor. Further, that, years earlier, a privately owned railroad had steamed up the coast from Honolulu and around rocky Kaena Point to the North Shore of the island. some investigation revealed that the Hawaiian Railway Society was restoring locomotives in a borrowed equipment facility at the Depot, as well as publishing newsletters recounting the history of the original rail line, Oahu Railway & Land Company.
My career consumed most of my time as I became manager of the Waianae cable TV company and then chief engineer for Oceanic Cable in Honolulu. Oceanic eventually wired the entire island and absorbed the smaller operations, including my original employer. I spent fifteen years on Oahu, working in cable and starting an electronics manufacturing company on the side. I often visited the Hawaiian Railway Society, which had moved from Lualualei to the sugar mill town of Ewa, not far from Pearl Harbor. My interest was less in restoring old equipment, however, than in the history of what I came to realize had been a very sophisticated railroad operation and a central part of life on Oahu for more than half a century. I felt a kinship with the people, especially the engineers, who had built a vital network for island commerce nearly a century before my own efforts to construct a different kind of network across the same geography.
I began collecting information on Oahu Railway and narrow gauge railroads in general in the mid-seventies. These included the Society's monthly newsletter, Akahele I Ke KaAahi, as well as the few books written about Hawaiian railroads, all now long out of print. As my career moved me and my wife, Trudy, from Honolulu to Colorado, Connecticut and Manhattan, we returned to Hawaii as often as possible. We would see friends and visit Oceanic Cable, as I still worked for its parent company, Time Warner. A feature of the visits was almost always a trip to both the Bishop Museum and the Hawaii State Archives, where I'd poke through their collections of photos, maps and documents relating to the OR&L. I purchased copies of some of the photographs and displayed them in my office and home, and I began plans for a model railroad based on the Oahu Railway. I constructed my first layout in our basement in Connecticut, but had to dismantle it when we moved. A much more ambitious layout is now well underway in our Colorado home. I purchased a collection of model locomotives and cars very much like those that had run on the OR&L. The many similarities between the equipment on the Oahu Railway and that that had run on the Colorado narrow gauge lines of the Denver, Rio Grande & Western railroad, very popular with modelers, made this task much easier.
The Oahu Railway is actually a surprisingly good prototype for a model railroad. It was constrained in size by its island location, had only a few branch lines, and hauled a variety of goods. The railroad's economic reasons for being included transporting bagged raw sugar from the six plantation mills that it served to the docks, and moving huge loads of pineapples from the pine sidings in the fields of the island's central plain to the canneries. But the railroad was also a fixture of the community, and offered frequent passenger service, including connections with branch routes. It hauled garbage to the dump, south seas guano fertilizer to the plantations, coral and concrete to construction sites, empty cans to three canneries and full ones to the docks, landfill to lagoons, merchandise to general stores, oil and gasoline and on and on. Prior to and during each war, it hauled guns to batteries, ammunition to bases, depots and ships, and soldiers and sailors downtown to the bars, tattoo parlors and dance halls of Hotel Street. The OR&L's locomotives ranged from small and simple to unusually heavy and powerful for a narrow gauge operation. It included a sophisticated automatic block signaling system, perhaps the only narrow gauge railroad in the United States and her territories to have one. And it had a beautiful passenger terminal in Honolulu and a large and active roundhouse. The modeling possibilities are endless.
For a long time, my research into the OR&L's history was focused on planning my model railroad and I gathered lots of information and hundreds of photographs. However, it eventually dawned on me that there might be interest in a book offering a comprehensive pictorial history of the railroad. I knew that there were many current and former Hawaii residents with a keen interest in the history of that unique place. I knew as well that there is an audience that reads and collects railroad history books. And my own modeling experience hinted that others might enjoy a collection of useful information about this wonderful line.
The idea of writing a book led me into conversations with Mac Simpson, an old friend, who had authored and designed a number of illustrated books with Hawaiian themes, including Streetcar Days in Honolulu (2001), a history of the Honolulu Rapid Transit Company. Oahu is a very small island in many ways, and Mac had often worked with my former next-door-neighbor, the late Bob Goodman, who had founded Island Heritage Press, publishing some 120 books, mostly about Hawaii. He and Mac had pioneered the composition, layout and publication of high quality books using Macintosh computers beginning in 1986, a technique which came to be called "desktop publishing." Their first effort, a richly illustrated history of Hawaii's whaling days called "WhaleSong," created a stir in the computer industry. Bob and Mac probably sold more copies of WhaleSong to aspiring computer publishers than to whaling aficionados. The book featured an extensive "how we did it" section which provided a tutorial on this new approach to publishing. Chats with Mac opened my eyes to the practical possibility of publishing the dedicated history that OR&L deserved. And conversations with various folks in the railroad publishing and modeling communities confirmed that there was at least a vague awareness that there had once been an interesting railroad on Oahu and that there was a genuine interest in knowing more. Mac and I decided to collaborate on this book, and hope that it pleases its various audiences. It is indeed a labor of love.

The proprietorship accounts of IK and SA were opened in a tax exempted region and transactions in their accounts were conducted online in order to evade withholding tax on cash withdrawals. Furthermore, from the transactional activity and the region where the accounts were maintained, it was likely that IK and SA were involved in hawala/smuggling/trade-based money laundering.
Two proprietorship accounts maintained by IK and SA were reported. The accounts were maintained at XYZ Bank's branch located in tax exempted area. The accounts were reported by the bank due to large turnover and inconsistent patterns of transactions – transactions were conducted with unrelated counterparties and the transactions in the accounts were conducted online from different regions.
Upon analysis, the accounts of IK and SA were found to be linked due to common office contact number provided in the account opening forms. Further, it was revealed that the accounts were operated by a third party under a mandate, which raised concerns regarding the beneficial ownership of the accounts. Besides large turnover reported in the accounts, many transactions in cash mode were conducted in the accounts and a majority of the transactions in the accounts were conducted online from XYZ Bank's branch located in tax exempted area.
Many CTRs were reported on IK and SA and from these reports various other banking relationships maintained by IK and SA in different banks were identified. For an account maintained by IK, an STR was reported when he tried to remit USD 900,000, however, the request to transfer the funds was declined by the bank. The said activity was also conducted in ABC Bank's branch located in tax exempted area.
It was apparent from the transactional activities that the accounts of IK and SA were maintained in tax exempted area to evade withholding tax on cash withdrawals. Due to large turnover in the accounts being maintained in the tax exempted area with the intention to misuse the tax exemption regime, carry out transactions potentially linked to smuggling and trade-based money laundering, the financial intelligence was shared with the relevant LEAs for investigation. Furthermore, the matter was also referred to the regulator to look in to the matter to discourage such practices.

Ouseburn Conservation Area Consultation
In spring 2017 Ouseburn Futures set up a consultation to gather local people's views on the Conservation Area Management Plan. The map and list of buildings is still available to view but is now closed for comments.
You can read a report on the consultation here
The physical character of Ouseburn is very important for a whole host of reasons. An important element of how Ouseburn looks is the existing buildings; the contrast between old and new makes the place special. If all the existing buildings disappeared, the Valley would lose its special character.
The Lower Ouseburn Conservation Area Management Plan, published by Newcastle City Council in 2004, suggested a way of classifying buildings in the Conservation Area according to whether they have architectural and/or historical merit or not. You can read the document here and the Character Statement which goes with it here.
Ouseburn Futures were asked by Newcastle City Council to lead on implementing the Ouseburn Regeneration Plan. The protection and enhancement of the physical character of the area is a vital part of this. The Lower Ouseburn Conservation Area Management Plan, one of the statutory documents for this area, now needs updating and Ouseburn Futures has been thinking about what needs to change, to help the City Council with this task.
The first part of this involved reviewing which buildings should be considered to be of importance and therefore protected. Obviously the buildings are of varying quality and importance. They range from high quality listed buildings in the Conservation Area to tin shacks outside the Valley proper. Having done our own assessment of buildings within the current ORP boundary, we asked people who work or live in or visit the area for their views on the importance of each of these buildings. This will contribute to the task of protecting them.
You will find included in the list the following types of buildings:
Within the Conservation Area: in theory all buildings are protected here, but the Conservation Area Management Plan as set out above suggested which ones are important and which could be considered or encouraged to be demolished (always given that suitable replacement buildings are proposed)
Within the Valley, close to but outside the Conservation Area: buildings which contribute towards what most people would consider as part of Ouseburn Valley, such as Stepney Bank, Boyd St, or Quayside
Those of lesser importance on the periphery
The list is also annotated to show which buildings are Listed or have planning permission or are proposed for development.
It's worth noting too that we did not include any very new buildings (after about 1995), and have also at this stage excluded walls, public art, and other structures which are not really buildings.
We asked people to click on the map or list of buildings, and vote to show whether they agree with our review of the importance of each building, and also add comments. We split the buildings into 3 geographical areas to make this as easy as possible: central Ouseburn (the Conservation Area), and outside the Conservation Area: west and east.

They'd Rather Sue
Posted on October 16, 2011 by Susanna J. Sturgis
For those following Ben Ramsey and Nisa Counter's adventures in Massachusetts Land Court . . .
In our last episode, Judge Sands encouraged the parties to consider mediating their dispute. Mediation encourages opponents in a dispute to work together to come up with a solution that both sides can live with. It's generally less expensive and less time-consuming than pursuing a case through the courts, and it's less adversarial: the parties are encouraged to cooperate in finding an answer instead of each using the law to bludgeon the other into submission. In court, one side wins and the other loses. Mediation tries to find a middle way.
What's not to like? Ben and Nisa have been totally for mediation, negotiation — any way to work it out outside the courts — since back before anyone on Martha's Vineyard had heard of the case, since before any of us knew that SMF claimed to own a small parcel of Chilmark land that Ben and Nisa had bought (after exhaustive title searching, deed examining, and hunting for old landmarks) from Ben's aunt Billie. Knowing that Nisa and Ben's financial resources were very limited, SMF decided to sue in land court — a process that can drag on for years and cost tens of thousands of dollars.
That was this past July. Rather than get steamrollered by SMF's legal clout, Ben and Nisa decided to start telling Vineyarders what was going on, using the time-honored poor folks' newspaper, aka the grapevine. Facebook is a grapevine on steroids and speed; still, it was another month before I got wind of the story. (For the record: I didn't know Ben or Nisa at all. I was dimly aware that Nisa ran a fitness business, but y'all know that fitness and I don't exist in the same universe so we hadn't met.) By mid-August, when the story first appeared in the island newspapers, I'd learned enough to realize how one-sided the coverage was, particularly that of the Martha's Vineyard Times. (See "What's Up with the Martha's Vineyard Times?" for details.) Not only did the Times not print my letter, it banned me and Jackie Mendez-Diez, another vocal supporter of Ben and Nisa's claim, from posting comments on their website.
"The truth will set you free," so the saying goes, "but first it will piss you off." It seems the Times is still at the pissed-off stage.
The Sheriff's Meadow Foundation hasn't got that far yet. They've just rejected the judge's recommendation that the parties mediate their dispute. Bring on the bludgeons and the big-bucks lawyer.
I'm mystified. As I said: "What's not to like?" Well, I can think of one downside to mediation: Mediation would reveal the facts of the case more promptly than an extended court case. Maybe SMF wants to draw the process out as long as possible — perhaps in the hope that Nisa and Ben won't be able to raise the money to stay the course? (I would never, ever, ever suggest that lawyers stand to rack up more billable hours if their clients don't mediate.) But why?
Nature abhors a vacuum, and so does the grapevine. We'll do our theorizing based on what we know. Based on what we know, it looks like Sheriff's Meadow has lost track of its mission and that it's not interested in being a good neighbor.
Not to Ben and Nisa, at any rate. Maybe their other neighbors have more clout?

#OccupyChillmark
You want both those L's in "Chillmark"?
Carolyn O'Daly says:
Susanna…please let us know how to put pressure on SMF. There must be a way besides withholding donations. Is there a way we could get a list of their donors and let the money people know what is going on? I simply can't believe the people in Chilmark are that afraid of Ben and Nisa building a home in their snooty enclave. The 60's have returned and we're mad as hell and we're not taking it any more.
Some people have called or written SMF director Adam Moore. That registers displeasure at least, but in nonprofits the big policy decisions usually aren't made by the paid staff; they're made by the board. Board members are listed on SMF's website (www.sheriffsmeadow.org). If you have a personal connection with any of them, bring it up! According to the SMF website, donors are listed in their annual report, but I don't have a copy and at this point I don't think they'd send me one. 😉
I know almost nothing about the upper echelons of Chilmark society, but there does seem to be a small, fairly cohesive group of wealthy summer people who don't want people of modest means in their enclaves. Since this started, Ben and Nisa have been snubbed and "dropped" by clients and people they considered friends.
Hal Davis says:
Re this: "According to the SMF website, donors are listed in their annual report, but I don't have a copy and at this point I don't think they'd send me one."
They are obligated to show it to you. In fact, if you show up on their doorstep, they have to present one to you, and you can read it right there on their premises.

When I was a little boy, we grew up in a tent in the summer and did live-in caretaking for the winters. Until we could afford to put up the walls, and a roof. that was our house for many years, and life was good, but hard — my dad worked two jobs to keep us afloat. No one lived out there but us, and some hippys, in shacks they built from scraps of wood and tarps. No one cared, or bothered anyone. but then Carly Simon built a big giant house out in those woods & what do you think happened? The land value went up, up, up! and the taxes too! We had to sell, and move away from our island we loved! So when I see this stuff happen right under our noses — where is the outrage?!!!! Nisa & Ben are island kids too. Give them a chance to raise a famaly where they want too. Christ, it's their land!!!!

DNA sequencing uncovers latent risk for developing cystic fibrosis
Published	 Wednesday 27 July 2016	 Published	Wed 27 Jul 2016
Adapted Media Release
A study by researchers at Children's Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA), Brigham and Women's Hospital and the California Department of Public Health suggests that all babies with a known mutation for cystic fibrosis (CF) and second mutation called the 5T allele should receive additional screening in order to better predict the risk of developing CF later in life.
The results, published in the journal Genetic Testing and Molecular Biomarkers, indicate that adding specific DNA sequencing to current newborn screenings would allow for early diagnosis in ethnically diverse populations and may increase the number of CF diagnoses in the U.S. over time. Such diagnoses could result in earlier treatment of CF, which could ultimately improve the outcome and prolong the life of a child with the disease.
Newborn screening programs, using a simple blood test taken within 24 to 48 hours of a child's birth, allow for early detection and treatment of often devastating disorders. In the U.S., millions of newborns are screened each year, and early testing for CF - a progressive, genetic disease that causes persistent lung infections - has been implemented in all 50 states since 2010. CF is an autosomal recessive disorder, meaning that the child must inherit two copies of an abnormal gene in order for the disease to develop.
Each state uses a different screening algorithm to detect newborns with CF. California has implemented a unique algorithm which incorporates full sequencing of the gene responsible for CF, called the CF Transmembrane Conductance Regulator or CFTR. Most other states perform a two-tier screen on the blood that first measures the concentration of the pancreatic enzyme that is elevated in CF. In babies with the highest levels of this enzyme, called immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT), a secondary screen looks at a selected list of 23 to 140 CFTR mutations known to cause the disease.
According to lead investigator Danieli Salinas, MD, Division of Pediatric Pulmonology at CHLA, these CFTR mutation panels were built based on the most prevalent mutations among severely affected individuals, most of whom were Caucasians.
"If only a commercial panel is applied, a large number of diagnoses are missed among African Americans and Hispanics," Salinas said. "Missing these causal mutations during newborn screening has the devastating consequence of not detecting CF in these individuals until later in life, when lung damage is already irreversible."
In California, after detection of one CFTR mutation, the blood sample is sent for CFTR-DNA sequencing to rule out presence of a second pathogenic mutation. California has screened over 4 million newborns for CF since 2007, discovering that - in babies with two mutations - only about one third had classic CF symptoms. Two-thirds of the babies with sequence variants were not found to have CF as indicated by an abnormal chloride sweat test, considered to be the gold standard of CF diagnosis.
"The question became whether the babies in the second group (labeled CFTR-related metabolic syndrome or CRMS) really went on to develop CF, or if benign variants in CFTR were being detected that might never cause a clinical problem," said senior author Richard B. Parad, MD, MPH, a neonatologist in BWH's Department of Pediatric Newborn Medicine and an associate professor at Harvard Medical School.
The researchers evaluated the effect of a specific, common mild CFTR gene variant that is carried by nearly one of 10 people, the 5T allele. They followed the cohort of babies detected through CF newborn screening with a variant detected in both of their CFTR gene copies: one severe CF-causing mutation and one 5T allele. This cohort was followed over eight years to describe clinical outcomes. The researchers were able to generate risk predictions based on the "TG repeat" - a DNA repeating pattern of varying length found directly adjacent to 5T alleles.
Newborns with the 11 TG, a measurement of the length of the repeat, showed no signs of CF during eight years of follow-up. However, 6 percent of babies with the 12 TG developed the disease and nearly 40 percent of children with the 13 TG were considered to have CF within eight years of birth.
"The study's conclusions show that, depending on the 5T-TG repeat length information, the risk of presenting a natural history consistent with CF can be anticipated," said Parad. "Right now, these babies are not detected by CF newborn screening in states other than California. Instead of being detected in an asymptomatic state and followed closely, these babies later present with CF symptoms and may have missed an important opportunity to initiate early appropriate therapies during a window of protection that might improve their long term outcome."
"Having CFTR-DNA sequencing as part of a newborn screening model can unveil the full spectrum of this disorder, through early detection of mild to severe cases in an ethnically diverse population," added Salinas, who is also an assistant professor of Pediatrics and preventive medicine at the Keck School of Medicine at the University of Southern California. "Studies like this are important to better guide providers and families, by determining which individuals with which mutation combinations should be clinically monitored."
The study received support from the National Institutes of Health (grants KL2TR000131 and U19 HD077671). Patient data was provided by providers from the 16 CF centers comprising the California Cystic Fibrosis Newborn Screening Consortium.

Do you think have a slab leak in your Yucaipa house or Yucaipa business?
If leaks are not detected and fixed promptly, they can cause severe damage to your home. Leaking water can decay and erode the walls, foundation, ceilings and damage flooring. Rust can be caused, as well as mold, wood rot, termites, ants, and even more leaks. Have you noticed your water bill increasing and your water pressure decreasing? That is why we offer our thorough Electronic Leak Detection service. Option One is your local Yucaipa leak detection experts. We can find your leak fast, and recommend the best way to repair it at an upfront, affordable price… you have our guarantee.
WHAT CAUSES YUCAIPA WATER LEAKS ?
CAN WE FIND LEAKS IN YUCAIPA CA EVEN THOUGH YOU CAN'T SEE THEM?
WHAT KIND OF LEAKS CAN BE FOUND IN YUCAIPA?
Slab leaks are pressurized pipes under a slab of concrete or foundation; found under homes, businesses and industrial facilities built on a slab foundation. Also known as under-floor leakage, or in-floor leakage, on domestic plumbing systems. Domestic water plumbing leaks may be hot water slab leaks or cold water slab leaks. Many of the specialized methods of locating leaks on underground piping are also used in precision location of under slab or in-slab leaks. Electronic leak detection is used on slab leaks to avoid the catastrophic property damage associated with "hunting" for slab leaks with jack hammers and similar demolition tools used by those unskilled in locating leaks without destruction. There are a few ways to detect a slab leak. One is to check if any water is leaking up through the foundation or any settling has occurred. Your Yucaipa water, gas or electric bills is another way people find out If there is a noticeable increase, you may have an undetected leak somewhere. If the home has deteriorating water lines, then a complete copper pipe replacement (copper repipe) would be advisable.
Dripping faucets and water leaks in Yucaipa waste water and money. The smallest of drips and water leaks around your home should be repaired. A slow drip can waste as much as 15 to 20 gallons of water per day. Many water leaks are easy to fix. Others may require a plumber. Call Option One Plumbing and one of our certified plumbers in Yucaipa will come by to help.
Yucaipa's responsibility for water meter issues ends on the customer's side of the water meter. The customer is responsible from the meter to the house, including plumbing inside of the house. One way to tell if you have a leak is to look at the small triangle on your water meter called the flow indicator and if it is spinning while all the fixtures in the home are in the off position, you have a leak. Call Option One plumbing, your local #1 neighborhood plumber to call when you have a leak on the water meter.
Option One Plumbing are experts in the latest leak detection technology in California. You can count on us to quickly find leaks in your Yucaipa home, make repairs as necessary with full disclosure of price, and never at an unnecessary cost to you. Fast, affordable and honest plumbers in Yucaipa, that is Option One.

'Oh my God, there's no people': National Mall scene a symbol of shutdown's impact
January is already a slow month for D.C. tourism-based businesses.
ByCheyenne Haslett
Trash lays on the grounds of the National Mall as the partial shutdown of the U.S. government goes into the 12th day, Jan. 2, 2019, in Washington, D.C.
January, typically a gray month in the nation's capital when temperatures begin to drop, is already a slow month for tourism-based businesses.
Factor in a government shutdown that's closed the doors of the city's 17 world-class, free museums, plus the National Zoo, and you've got all the makings for some very low snow globe sales on the National Mall.
"Oh my God, there's no people. All the empty spots!" said Kim Tran, 65, who runs a hot dog truck that operates around Washington's different prime tourist spots. On Wednesday, she was parked just outside the White House gates on 15th Street, joined by just three other vendors in a peak location that normally sees 10 shops set up each day.
"It's so bad for the holiday, so bad for our business," she said. Though winter is slow, the winter holidays usually bring an uptick, Tran said.

Brian Kim, who sells souvenirs out of his stand — neon sweatshirts bearing the city's name, tote bags emblazoned with the presidential seal and red hats with President Donald Trump's campaign slogan, "Make America Great Again" — said many vendors may have decided not to work until the museums reopen.
Kim Tran, who has run a food truck outside different Washington tourist attractions for around 20 years, said business is slow because the Smithsonian museums are closed, even for the winter months when vendors usually see less customers.

"With this business, I feed my kids," Kim, 43, said. He described Wednesday's sales by midday as "very slow."
Tran, too, is the primary breadwinner in her house. She has four children, two of whom still live with her, and also works to support her husband. She's run her hot dog truck for over 20 years, she said.
On New Year's Day, Tran estimated she made around $50 from 7 a.m. until around 6 p.m. Normally, on a holiday, she expects to make around $200 of sales.
"I don't know what I'll do now," she said, considering whether or not to restock her truck until the museums re-opened their doors. "I have to pay bills, I don't know what to do."
Though business was slow, Tran and Kim agreed the White House was the best location to set up shop during the shutdown because people still gathered there, standing outside its gates.
Vendors selling snacks and souvenirs to tourists in Washington say the shutdown has effected business, particularly in the areas outside now-closed Smithsonian museums. 15th street, usually home to about 10 different vendors, saw about four set up shop, Jan. 2, 2019.
It was one of the spots Nicklas Skar and his daughter, Erika, visited in their few days in the city on a visit from Sweden.
They'd hoped the government would be open by the time they made their way to Washington from New York City, where they spent the majority of their trip but settled instead for what they could "see from the outside."
"I really wanted to see one of the Smithsonian museums," Erika said, standing on the National Mall. "It's too bad so many things are closed that you can't get in."
Congress is set to reconvene for its 116th session on Thursday, the 13th day of the partial shutdown over an impasse on funding for the president's border wall. Trump and Democrats have yet to reach an agreement that would allow the government to reopen.

(MORE: Overflowing trash, toilets and safety concerns. National parks face second week of shutdown.)
Some visitors to the Mall posted photos of overflowing trash cans over the holiday weekend, which has been an issue at multiple national parks with lots of visitors but minimal staff during the shutdown.
DC Public Works has been emptying the trash since before Christmas, but a spokeswoman for the city said they don't have additional staff to pick up the extra work.

Black Friday—the traditional American shopping day that occurs the day after American Thanksgiving or the final Friday in November—has long been a tradition in the United States. For those who don't know about it, it is the day that many retailers "go into the black" for the year, finally making a profit. Of course, because of the extensive sales (often beginning at 4am), many people have traditionally used this shopping day to begin purchasing gifts for Christmas. The final Friday in November has also, traditionally, marked the beginning of the Christmas season in North America. With the thanksgiving turkey eaten and all hints of Pilgrims, Native Americans, and other potentially disturbing history lessons happily buried beneath an evening of American football and a stomach ache from over-eating, the day-after-Thanksgiving used to greet those venturing into public with garlands, wreaths, bows, lights and Christmas carols buzzing in the air.
This year, the aforementioned Christmas accouterments began appearing sometime closer to November 15th or even November 1st. No one really seemed bothered by this remarkably early appearance of Christmas. However, some people were outraged when stores in America decided to start "Black Friday" sales on Thursday, adulterating a traditional public holiday both by making people work and by tainting the holiday with consumer practices (not that Thanksgiving wasn't already well-consumerized, but the opening of retail stores on the holiday meant that the marketplace was more obviously and unavoidably infiltrating the day).
The period before Christmas is Advent, a much ignored season of the year in modern culture. Sure we have advent wreaths but there is no real sense of "advent," from the Latin "adventus" or coming. Coming: as in not here yet…not arrived…expected…hoped for…looked for….
Some Christians—who initiated the celebration of Christmas in the first place—do try to keep the celebration of Advent alive. In Christian practice, Advent is kept alive through fasting, prayer, and a focus on the future, on things yet to come (not Christmas carols, lights, bows, wreaths, or garlands: these are the signs and symbols of celebration not expectation). What is it that Christians look for, long for, pray for, hope for during advent? Christians look for, hope for, expect the coming of Jesus. Advent is a time of remembering God's promise to restore the world he created and of looking for the fulfillment of that promise. Christians believe that Jesus is that very creator-God come to dwell among humanity for a time, beginning that work of restoration and renewal. Yet that work isn't finished yet. During Advent, as Christians re-live the historical hope for renewal, they also continue to hope for the completion of God's work of restoration in a world still broken and still in need of healing.
So, what's wrong with decking the halls early? Why is it worse than shopping on Thanksgiving? For the simple reason that in celebrating Christmas before the holiday comes, Christmas day and the celebration of Jesus' birth becomes the end of the story, the main event that we then pack-up. By celebrating in advance, we lose the practice of hoping and of praying, we lose the holy expectation that sees our broken world and longs for it to be made whole. In celebrating Christmas as the beginning of a new season—the Christmas season—Christians acknowledge that the process of God's restoration begins with the coming of God in the person of Jesus but that restoration is not completed in a day. It is ongoing, continuing, even in this Advent season. So, I say, let's not deck the halls with boughs of holy because it is not the season to be jolly… not yet. Right now, it is the season to be subdued by the darkness that engulfs our world and to long for God to come dwell among his people once again.
– I agree. Thanks for your thoughts. But we should definitely party on Easter! Forget some weird bunny who lays chocolate eggs, believers in Jesus should really go crazy come Easter. We should party like someone just came back from the dead sort of party. Now that's what I'm talking about.
Oh and it's interesting to note the pain and violence that accompanied Jesus' coming: the flight to Egypt and the slaughter of the innocents.
