LOS ANGELES - Oct. 29, 2013 - PRLog -- The feature film "Garifuna in Peril" produced and directed by Alí Allié and Rubén Reyes screened in Italy this month at the Festival del Cinema Latino Americano di Trieste, winning the audience choice award. This news came while producer Reyes was on a ten city screening tour in northern Honduras where the movie was filmed, and where the majority of the Garifuna live in Central America. "The film has now been delivered to the Garifuna community," Mr. Reyes remarked at a packed screening in Punta Gorda, Roatán, where the Garifuna people originally landed in Honduras after being exiled by the British from their homeland, the island of St. Vincent, in 1797.
Earlier in the year, Allié and Reyes toured the film in southern Belize, another Garifuna population center, and also participated in the Muestra Internacional de Cine y Video en Defensa de la Vida y el Territorio in Guatemala.
The film is scheduled to screen in the U.S. cities of Atlanta, Detroit and Houston in November, and will have its Caribbean premiere at the Bahamas International Film Festival in December, winding down its year long film festival run which included showings in 12 countries and multiple awards. The producers are now weighing distribution options for a DVD/VOD release early next year.
Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQs5m9haasM
The plot of the film follows the journey of a Garifuna language teacher Ricardo (played by co-director Ruben Reyes) in Los Angeles as he struggles to be a good father, husband and brother while taking responsibility to preserve his native language, traditional culture and community lands against the expansion of tourism. Ricardo's plans to build a Garifuna language school on the north coast of Honduras become complicated by the expansion plans of a tourist resort in the area and personal betrayal by a family member pushes him to travel to Honduras and directly confront land issues in tandem with his educational mission. Meanwhile, Ricardo's son Elijah (played by E.J. Mejia, Jr.) rehearses a theater play dramatizing an episode from the life of Garifuna Paramount Chief Joseph Satuyé and his last stand against the British on the island of St. Vincent, the same historical events dramatized in William A. Brown's now-lost play The Drama of King Shotaway.
"Garifuna in Peril" is the first feature film in the Garifuna language, a language proclaimed by UNESCO in 2001 as a Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity.

Five Leadership Lessons from Mountain Biking


Floyd Mayweather Jr takes on Conor McGregor this Sunday 8 am Jakarta time.
The most hyped (some might say over-hyped) boxing match in recent memory, between undefeated world champion Floyd Mayweather Jr and Ultimate Fighting champion Conor McGregor, is taking place this Saturday in Las Vegas with the broadcast starting Sunday morning at 8am Jakarta time.
Many expect the once-retired Mayweather to utterly destroy the UFC fighter, who will be stepping into the professional boxing ring for the first time ever against the 49-0 champion, but the minuscule chance of an utterly improbable upset will surely get lots of curious viewers in Jakarta to skip Car Free Day in favor of the fight.
There are quite a few sports bars and other venues in the Indonesian capital that will be showing the fight, but for those of you who'd rather watch from the comfort of your home, you could watch it on local station TVOne or you could stream it live for free through iFlix.
One of the top contenders to streaming service Netflix, iFlix offers subscribers in Indonesia and other countries throughout Asia, the Middle East and Africa access to plenty of content, ranging from Western movies to local TV series and, most importantly to this article, live streams of local sports (such as the Indonesian football league).
In a coup, iFlix has secured the rights to live stream the Mayweather vs McGregor fight in Indonesia (which is currently their biggest market).
You can sign up for a free 30-day trial of iFlix (no credit card required) which gives you full access to all of their content, including their live sports streams. Subscriptions are Rp 39,000 per month.
If you want to enjoy the spectacle of Mayweather v. McGregor alongside your fellow fight fans, here's a list of all the venues in Jakarta that we could confirm will be screening the fight Sunday morning. Many are offering special promos on breakfast and drinks as well.
Its on at Aphrodite! Call for reservations we are almost full!


We say it time and again – no matter the style, houses should be multi-functional, meet present day needs and stand the test of time.
This was a great house at the outset, but it didn't function for this young, busy family.
With young children in the home, some strategic changes were made such as carpet content choices and the use of vinyls vs leathers. It is now a functional, yet elegant home that supports this family's lifestyle today and will for years to come.

What NOT To Do... Unless You Really Believe There's No Such Thing As Bad Publicity
As soon as I read this Film Industry Network article headline:
CANNES FILM FESTIVAL BEING SUED BY A FILM DIRECTOR
and started the first sentence:
A French film director is suing the Cannes Film Festival for not accepting his film.
plus saw the accompanying picture:
I shook my head in disbelief, "This young director just ruined his career before it even started."
At least this guy got a deal and a movie bought and distributed before he nuked his career.
The lesson is clear: If you want a career in filmmaking, suing one of the most prestigious film festivals in the world because they did NOT choose your film is one of the worst things you can do.
Curious to know what legal loophole the director is trying to exploit to make his case, I read the article.
And it turns out the young guy in that pic is NOT the director.
That guy is one of the actors in the film.
And the director's name is Paul Verhoeven.
Now Paul Verhoeven is a veteran director. He directed some movies you might recall remember like, Total Recall, Robocop, Basic Instinct, Showgirls and Starship Troopers. He is no lightweight... so if he's suing, maybe he really has a grievance. That might make a little more sense now... while it might be a foolish move, a veteran director suing Cannes wouldn't necessarily destroy his career. He already HAS a career. He's just fallen from his perch but the perch is still there for him to climb. Unlike a young director who wouldn't even have a perch to climb yet.
But it's not the famous Dutch director, Paul Verhoeven, suing Cannes.
It's the NOT famous French director, Paul Verhoeven, suing Cannes.
This guy:
And he's 73 years old.
Not a young director.
Not a veteran either.
This Paul Verhoeven and Cannes were never destined to be in the same sentence together. But maybe he believes in Barnum's maxim of "no such thing as bad publicity," since he's figured out a way to get publicity for himself and his boy-centered and colorfully-subtitled movies.
The lesson is clear (revised): If you want a career in filmmaking, suing one of the most prestigious film festivals in the world because they did NOT choose your film is one of the worst things you can do... UNLESS you aren't really serious about a filmmaking career and just want to see your name in print + a couple thousand views on your YouTube page.

Worst Bowling Attempt Of All Time?
A woman in Brazil may have set a record for the most destructive bowling roll ever. She somehow LAUNCHED the ball into the AIR where it smashed into an overhead TV screen, and landed in the next lane.
Her fingers may have been stuck in the holes, or perhaps she just held on too long.

US Attorney General Defends Clearing Park of Protesters Near White House
Ken Bredemeier
Police clear the area around Lafayette Park and the White House as demonstrators gather to protest the death of George Floyd, June 1, 2020, in Washington. Floyd died after being restrained by Minneapolis police officers.
U.S. Attorney General William Barr has justified use of force to clear Lafayette Park across the street from White House last Monday evening of protesters just ahead of President Donald Trump walking through the park for a photo-op in front of a nearby church.
"They were not peaceful protesters," Barr contended on CBS News's "Face the Nation" show. "And that's one of the big lies that the media is, seems to be perpetuating at this point."
Barr, the top law enforcement official in the U.S., said protesters were given three warnings to clear the park before police and authorities clad in riot gear advanced on them, firing pepper balls.
The police action against the protesters came in the midst of nationwide protests against the May 25 death of George Floyd, an African American man who was held face down by a white police officer on a street in Minneapolis, Minnesota, with his knee on Floyd's neck for nearly nine minutes even as he said repeatedly he could not breathe.
Attorney General William Barr, center, stands in Lafayette Park across from the White House as demonstrators gather to protest the death of George Floyd, June 1, 2020, in Washington.
Barr denied the use of chemical irritants such as tear gas in clearing Lafayette Park, although the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention defines the pepper spray that was used as a type of "tear gas" or "riot control agent."
Barr said the park was cleared because of violent clashes that had erupted there from Friday to Sunday a week ago, May 29-31, with police "under constant attack."
"On Sunday, things reached a crescendo," Barr said. "The officers were pummeled with bricks. Crowbars were used to pry up the pavers at the park and they were hurled at police. There were fires set in not only St. John's Church (that Trump stood in front of Monday night), but a historic building at Lafayette was burned down."
After the May 31 clashes, Barr said, U.S. Park Police decided to expand the fenced-in perimeter around the White House, where Trump, first lady Melania Trump and their son Barron live.
"When I came in Monday, it was clear to me that we did have to increase the perimeter on that side of Lafayette Park and push it out one block," Barr said. "That decision was made by me in the morning. It was communicated to all the police agencies."
Tear gas floats in the air as a line of security forces move demonstrators away from St. John's Church across Lafayette Park from the White House, as they gather to protest the death of George Floyd, June 1, 2020, in Washington.
The attorney general said he saw projectiles being thrown at police, but added, "Here's what the media is missing. This was not an operation to respond to that particular crowd. It was an operation to move the perimeter one block."
CBS's Margaret Brennan told Barr that to Americans watching on television it appeared that the park was cleared of protesters so Trump, accompanied by heavy security and top aides, could walk to St. John's for his brief photo opportunity with a Bible held aloft.
"In an environment where the broader debate is about heavy-handed use of force in law enforcement, was that the right message for Americans to be receiving?" she asked.
"Well, the message is sometimes communicated by the media," Barr said. "I didn't see any video being played on the media of what was happening Friday, Saturday and Sunday" of the authorities being attacked by projectiles.
"All I heard was comments about how peaceful protesters were," Barr said. "I didn't hear about the fact that there were 150 law enforcement officers injured and many taken to the hospital with concussions. So, it wasn't a peaceful protest. We had to get control over Lafayette Park, and we had to do it as soon as we were able to do that."

But the Cowboys won their game.
Seriously though, how cute are my guys!?!
Schools were delayed two hours for possible ice on Friday, so I let Millie Jo have a skip day to start our girl's weekend!
We are working on this "self soothing" thing during nap time … because SOMEONE held Ellie Joy the first 6 months of her life while she napped … but I won't mention any names.
And when I went to check on her, I found her asleep like this.
And Ellie Joy & I headed out to dinner with friends for a birthday celebration.
And y'all … Dan & I are getting our first NEPHEW!!!
We can't wait to meet sweet Porter James in a few months!
Millie Jo was so surprised that after all these baby girl cousins, she is getting her first boy cousin! And you can only imagine the excitement Coop was feeling via FaceTime!
After the party, the girls & I headed out to the mall for a little shopping.
Millie Jo is obsessed with all things CLAIRE'S!
Her paw-paw gave her a little bit of money to spend this weekend & she was so excited about all her finds!
Saturday night, Grammy "talked us into"😉 spending the night at her house.
And look how cute THIS CHRISTMAS TREE is!!
Where was this when my other two were babies!?!
Sunday morning, I woke up with a headache … I blame it on lack of sleep. HA!
But by the evening, I was feeling better so the three of us made Christmas cookies!
We ended our weekend watching Christmas movies, drinking hot chocolate & trying to wait up for the boys. It didn't work. We all three were asleep hours before they got home!
I hope your weekend was so good!!

Six Songs on Poems by Edna St. Vincent Millay - Margaret Bonds
Edited by John Michael Cooper. Those who know the composer from the melodic richness and emotional intensity of her works "Troubled Water", "The Negro Speaks of Rivers", and "Three Dream Portraits" will recognize her voice in the present songs. The Millay settings are remarkable for their symphonic textures and sense of drama. Bonds' music renders the compelling and occasionally heart-wrenchingly painful beauty of feminist thinking and female sexuality in tones as profoundly moving as Millay's poems themselves – a feat rarely matched by other composers who have set these iconic poetic utterances to music. Now published for the first time, these settings are poised to assume their rightful position as milestones in twentieth-century art song and feminist song generally. Pre-order your copy today! Expected to ship in February, 2021
Peace - Emma Lou Diemer
"Peace" was commissioned by Jennifer Morgan Flory and the Georgia College Women's Ensemble for their April 12, 2014 concert at First Baptist Church, Milledgeville, Georgia. The theme of the concert was "Echoes of Peace, Visions of Hope."
Awakening - Meira Warshauer
This powerful work for solo piano was written at the height of the US-Soviet arms race. The piece moves from agitation, to peaceful spaciousness and finally to a celebration of the "trimuph of good."

Rubber Band Ligation Of Hemorrhoids
It is a procedure in which the hemorrhoid is tied off at its base with rubber bands, cutting off the blood flow to the hemorrhoid.
To perform the procedure, a doctor inserts a viewing instrument (anoscope) into the anus. The hemorrhoid is grasped with an instrument, and a device places a rubber band around the base of the hemorrhoid. The hemorrhoid then shrinks and dies and, in about a week, falls off.
A scar will form in place of the hemorrhoid, holding nearby veins so they don't bulge into the anal canal.
After the procedure, you may feel pain and have a sensation of fullness in the lower abdomen. Or you may feel as if you need to have a bowel movement.
Treatment is limited to 1 to 2 hemorrhoids at a time if done in the doctor's office. Several hemorrhoids may be treated at one time if the person has general anesthesia. Additional areas may be treated at 4- to 6-week intervals.
People respond differently to this procedure. Some are able to return to regular activities (but avoid heavy lifting) almost immediately. Others may need 2 to 3 days of bed rest.
Pain is likely for 24 to 48 hours after rubber band ligation. You may use acetaminophen (for example, Tylenol) and sit in a shallow tub of warm water (sitz bath) for 15 minutes at a time to relieve discomfort.
To reduce the risk of bleeding, avoid taking aspirin and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for 4 to 5 days both before and after rubber band ligation.
Bleeding may occur 7 to 10 days after surgery, when the hemorrhoid falls off. Bleeding is usually slight and stops by itself.
Doctors recommend that you take stool softeners containing fiber and drink more fluids to ensure smooth bowel movements. Straining during bowel movements can cause hemorrhoids to come back.
Rubber band ligation is the most widely used treatment for internal hemorrhoids. If symptoms persist after three or four treatments, surgery may be considered.
Rubber band ligation cannot be used if there is not enough tissue to pull into the banding device. This procedure is almost never appropriate for fourth-degree hemorrhoids .
Rubber band ligation works for about 7 to 9 out of 10 people who have it. People who have this treatment are less likely to need another treatment compared to people who have coagulation treatments. About 1 out of 10 people may need surgery.
Risks: Side effects are rare but include:
Severe pain that does not respond to the methods of pain relief used after this procedure. The bands may be too close to the area in the anal canal that contains pain sensors.
Bleeding from the anus.
Inability to pass urine (urinary retention).
Infection in the anal area.

Q: Use Higher api level featurers in the lower api level devices I have developed my application by using sdk version 10.In lower version doesn't have the features which is available in the higher version's.Is there any api is available to use the higher level api features in the lower api level devices.
Note:
For example we unable to get the camera count in the api level 8, but we can get the details in the api level 9.If we try to use that feature application shows the exception.

A: That is not possible you need to implment that, or use some compatibility pack to get the functionallity.
But note that not everything is possible to emulate. E.g. the Base64 classes to implement is easy, but it is impossible to add the NFC functionallity to older releases because the needed hardware is missing.
You can simply check the actual android version and build a switch so you won't call any functions that are not aviable to that device. That is possible with the constant android.os.Build.VERSION.

Gerard Dennis, relator-appellant pro se.
Michael Freyberg, Asst. Atty. Gen. of State of New York (Louis J. Lefkowitz, Atty. Gen. of State of New York, on the brief), for respondent-appellee.
Before MADDEN, Judge, United States Court of Claims,* and LUMBARD and MOORE, Circuit Judges.
Relator is presently confined as the result of a 1949 felony conviction had upon his plea of guilty in County Court, Westchester County, to indictments charging various degrees of robbery, burglary and grand larceny. He was sentenced as a fourth offender to serve eighteen years to life imprisonment after the District Attorney had filed informations alleging fourteen prior Canadian felony convictions. New York Penal Law, McKinney's Consol.Laws, c. 40, § 1943. In a subsequent coram nobis proceeding in the Westchester County Court it was held that three of the fourteen convictions would have been felonies if committed in New York. The Appellate Division affirmed without opinion, People v. Dennis, 282 App.Div. 747, 122 N.Y.S.2d 909.
In the district court the relator challenged the constitutional propriety of the use by New York of the three prior Canadian convictions for the purpose of increasing his punishment as a multiple offender under New York Penal Law § 1942.
The use of a Canadian conviction in the application of the state multiple offender law is one of state procedure and presents no federal question. United States ex rel. Read v. Martin, 2 Cir., 263 F.2d 606. However, a liberal reading of the petition to the district court shows that it fairly raises factual issues of denial of due process in connection with the Canadian convictions, and, the district court should have further examined these claims.
We do not believe 28 U.S.C. § 2254 requires relator, in his present position, to exhaust whatever remedies may exist in a foreign country and since no remedy exists in New York for challenging the validity of the Canadian convictions, People v. McCullough, 300 N.Y. 107, 89 N.E.2d 335, the requirement of exhaustion of other remedies is deemed to have been complied with. United States ex rel. Savini v. Jackson, 2 Cir., 1957, 250 F.2d 349.
Accordingly we remand the case to the district court for a hearing and suggest that counsel be appointed to represent the relator.

Trump Praises Human Rights Abuser Kim Jong Un as 'Real Leader'
Winston Wang 0 March 2, 2019 8:39 pm
Moderate Left Bias
This article has moderate left bias with a bias score of -73.21 from our political bias detecting A.I.
Winston Wang
Washington Post columnist Max Boot was seen recently on the CNN program "Anderson Cooper 360," where he criticized President Trump for Trump's praise of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
Trump had called Kim a "great leader" and saying it was an honor to be with him during their recent meeting in Vietnam.
Discussion on the CNN program turned negatively, citing that Kim had violated human rights and was responsible for the deaths of many people.
Cooper began by saying that Trump might have wanted to "not alienate Kim Jong-un for the greater good."
However, he then goes on and says, "…there are ways to not alienate Kim Jong-un and continue negotiations or continue involvement without praising him as, you know, a real leader, you know, a great guy."
Boot then goes into how Trump "has an endless appetite for flattery," and, "he [Trump] imagines by flattering these foreign dictators he can manipulate them." He condemned Trump's actions, saying, "It's degrading. It's humiliating."
Otto Warmbier's family also released statements saying that, "Kim and his evil regime are responsible for the death of our son Otto…Kim and his evil regime are responsible for unimaginable cruelty and inhumanity…No excuse or lavish praise can change that."
Warmbier was the American citizen who died in North Korea's custody.
Trump had described Kim as, "a real personality and he's very smart. He's sharp as you can be, and he's a real leader, and he's pretty mercurial."
Former vice president Joe Biden also called Kim Jong Un and Trump's relationship a "love affair" and that "our national reputation is being tarnished."
On the other hand, conservative writer Rachael Kisman supported Trump saying that "Trump was right to praise him. If you are meeting with someone who is new to foreign relations, you need to make him feel welcome. And by praising him, Trump was making it easier to get us a good deal."
"Trump was establishing a good relation with Kim Jong Un, which is very important when trying to make a major deal," Thomas Jacobs, a political marketing expert added, "and of course, the media makes a huge deal of something tiny — because it is Trump."
Trump also claimed he had been "misinterpreted." Then again, Trump has been known to make friends with human right abusers. For example, during March of 2018, Trump congratulated Russian President Vladimir Putin on his reelection, despite being specifically told not do so. Trump, in the past, has also tweeted, "…Getting along with Russia (and others) is a good thing, not a bad thing……."
While Trump has strived for friendship with Kim Jong Un and Putin, he has also inconsistently enforced his "America First" policy, including pulling out of the Paris Climate Agreement, and possibly, the North America Free Trade Agreement.
While some people applauded Trump's progress, most people still responded negatively to Trump's praising.
VIDEO FULL TRANSCRIPT
ANDERSON: Joining us is USA Today columnist Kiersten Powers. Michael Caputo, and Max Boot, "Washington Post" columnist and author of The Corrosion of Conservatism, Why I Left The Right. Max, I don't even know what to ask. But why do you think this — is it just he's trying to gain leverage in negotiations and not alienate Kim Jong-un for the greater good? I guess that's one argument. But the negotiations have broken down. He seems to genuinely — I mean, there are ways to not alienate Kim Jong-un and continue negotiations or continue involvement without praising him as, you know, a real leader, you know, a great guy.
BOOT: "Exactly right, Anderson. I think the problem fundamentally here is that Donald Trump has an endless appetite for flattery. So he imagines that because he knows he can be manipulated by people who flatter him, he imagines by flattering these foreign dictators he can manipulate them. That theory, there's no evidence to support it. Look at what happened in Hanoi. It doesn't matter how often Donald Trump says he's best buddies with Kim Jong-un. At the end of the day, Kim really likes having nuclear weapons. He's not going to have them up no matter how much he's flattered, but Donald Trump has not stopped flattering him. This is obscene. It's degrading. It's humiliating. I get that sometimes you have to deal with unpleasant leaders, but when FDR met with Josef Stalin, he didn't feel compelled to exonerate Stalin from the crimes of the gulag or the Ukrainian famine. You can deal with these leaders and keep your dignity, but Donald Trump does not."

The Kremlin-friendly Izvestia newspaper claimed that Washington was attempting to discredit politicians loyal to President Vladimir Putin. It published what it claimed were emails hacked from the US State Department's computer system. However, the US Embassy in Moscow dismissed the accusation and provided a commentary on the letter and all its inaccuracies. The Embassy even helpfully tweeted the newspaper: 'Next time you are going to use fake letters — send them to us. We'll help you correct the errors.'

Randy Berry, LGBT Special Envoy at Welcome Reception on February 27, 2015 (click image to view video)
I am well aware how lucky I am to be standing here before you today with such amazing and comprehensive support networks, not only professionally but also personally. I'm joined here today not only by my sisters, Rita and Rhonda from Colorado, but also by my husband and my fellow global traveler, Pravesh Singh. Pravesh left his native South Africa nearly a decade ago not only to join me, but I think he really didn't realize he was also joining a larger family, and that is the Foreign Service, a family bound together in service to the United States. He's as much a member of the United States Foreign Service as I am, and I am very pleased to say that post-DOMA, when we move here from Amsterdam in early April, he will move home as an American citizen. (Applause.)
Pravesh and I do not share a common culture, nor do we share a common religion, nor do we share a common race. As much as it pains me to say this, we don't even share a common decade – (laughter) – really. What we do share, however, is love, and that love has built a good and happy life and a family that now includes our exceptional – (laughter) – our exceptional young children who are normally so well behaved – (laughter) – Arya and Xander. Yet as I say that, I think all of us in this room recognize just how unbelievably fortunate we are, for in far too many places around the world not only is this type of story impossible, but additionally, great and terrible injustices are visited on people like us.
This love still stands ground for imprisonment, harassment, torture, and far worse in too many places around the world. That is a violation of human rights. It is a violation of human rights by the standards set forth by many of our allies and partners around the world, and it is a violation of human rights by the standard of the universal declaration. We can and we must do better. Lives, futures, hopes and dreams depend on that, and that is why we're here today. That's also why this type of role is needed.

FSO Randy Berry Appointed as Special Envoy for the Human Rights of LGBT Persons
February 23, 2015 By domani spero in Consulate General, Foreign Policy, Foreign Service, FSOs, Special Envoys and Reps, State Department Tags: LGBT, Randy Berry, Special Envoy for the Human Rights of LGBT Persons, USCG Amsterdam	2 Comments
Updated 17:01 EST
Today, Secretary Kerry announced the appointment of FSO Randy Berry as the first-ever Special Envoy for the Human Rights of LGBT Persons. Below is an excerpt from Secretary Kerry's remarks:
We looked far and wide to find the right American official for this important assignment. Randy's a leader. He's a motivator. But most importantly for this effort, he's got vision. Wherever he's served – from Nepal to New Zealand, from Uganda to Bangladesh, from Egypt to South Africa, and most recently as Consul General in Amsterdam – Randy has excelled. He's a voice of clarity and conviction on human rights. And I'm confident that Randy's leadership as our new Special Envoy will significantly advance efforts underway to move towards a world free from violence and discrimination against LGBT persons.
Defending and promoting the human rights of LGBT persons is at the core of our commitment to advancing human rights globally – the heart and conscience of our diplomacy. That's why we're working to overturn laws that criminalize consensual same-sex conduct in countries around the world. It's why we're building our capacity to respond rapidly to violence against LGBT persons, and it's why we're working with governments, civil society, and the private sector through the Global Equality Fund to support programs advancing the human rights of LGBT persons worldwide.
Prior to his appointment, Randy Berry was the U.S. Consul General in Amsterdam. Below is his official bio from USCG Amsterdam:
Randy W. Berry arrived in Amsterdam August 3, 2012. He was United States Consul General in Auckland, New Zealand from 2009 to 2012, and prior to that, Deputy Chief of Mission of the U.S. Embassy in Kathmandu, Nepal from 2007 to 2009.
Mr. Berry's career with the State Department has also taken him to postings in Bangladesh, Egypt, Uganda (twice), and South Africa, as well as Washington DC. Mr. Berry holds a State Department Superior Honor Award, and is a nine-time Meritorious Honor Award recipient. He speaks Spanish and Arabic.
Mr. Berry was raised on a family cattle ranch in rural Custer County, Colorado. He is a graduate of Bethany College of Lindsborg, Kansas, and was a Rotary Scholar at the University of Adelaide, South Australia. Before joining the Foreign Service in 1993, Berry worked as an international training manager for America West Airlines in Phoenix, Arizona.

Omega-3 fatty acids are considered essential fatty acids: They are necessary for human health but the body can't make them — you have to get them through food. Omega-3 fatty acids can be found in fish, such as salmon, tuna, and halibut, other seafood including algae and krill, some plants, and nut oils. Also known as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), omega-3 fatty acids play a crucial role in brain function, as well as normal growth and development. They have also become popular because they may reduce the risk of heart disease. The American Heart Association recommends eating fish (particularly fatty fish such as mackerel, lake trout, herring, sardines, albacore tuna, and salmon) at least 2 times a week.
Research shows that omega-3 fatty acids reduce inflammation and may help lower risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, cancer, and arthritis. Omega-3 fatty acids are highly concentrated in the brain and appear to be important for cognitive (brain memory and performance) and behavioural function. In fact, infants who do not get enough omega-3 fatty acids from their mothers during pregnancy are at risk for developing vision and nerve problems. Symptoms of omega-3 fatty acid deficiency include fatigue, poor memory, dry skin, heart problems, mood swings or depression, and poor circulation.
People with diabetes often have high triglyceride and low HDL levels. Omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil can help lower triglycerides and apoproteins (markers of diabetes), and raise HDL, so eating foods or taking fish oil supplements may help people with diabetes. Another type of omega-3 fatty acid, ALA (from flaxseed, for example) may not have the same benefit as fish oil. Some people with diabetes can't efficiently convert ANA to a form of omega-3 fatty acids that the body can use. Also, some people with type 2 diabetes may have slight increases in fasting blood sugar when taking fish oil, so talk to your doctor to see if fish oil is right for you.
Some studies suggest that omega-3 fatty acids may help increase levels of calcium in the body and improve bone strength, although not all results were positive. Some studies also suggest that people who don't get enough of some essential fatty acids (particularly EPA and gamma-linolenic acid [GLA], an omega-6 fatty acid) are more likely to have bone loss than those with normal levels of these fatty acids. In a study of women over 65 with osteoporosis, those who took EPA and GLA supplements had less bone loss over 3 years than those who took placebo. Many of these women also experienced an increase in bone density.
Studies have found mixed results as to whether taking omega-3 fatty acids can help depression symptoms. Several studies have found that people who took omega-3 fatty acids in addition to prescription antidepressants had a greater improvement in symptoms than those who took antidepressants alone. Other studies show that omega-3 fatty acid intake helps protect against postpartom depression, among other benefits. However, other studies have found no benefit.
In a clinical study of 30 people with bipolar disorder, those who took fish oil in addition to standard prescription treatments for bipolar disorder for 4 months experienced fewer mood swings and relapse than those who received placebo. But another 4 month long clinical study treating people with bipolar depression and rapid cycling bipolar disorder did not find that EPA helped reduce symptoms.
Studies examining omega-3 fatty acids for asthma are mixed. In one small, well designed clinical study of 29 children with asthma, those who took fish oil supplements rich in EPA and DHA for 10 months reduced their symptoms compared to children who took placebo. However, most studies have shown no effect.

Celebrating the Creative Force Behind Impact Investing: Lawyers
Anne Field | July 1, 2019
The concepts of local and impact investing are easy for most people to embrace: what's not to like about investing in places you love and businesses who are doing good in the world? But the methods of doing so require specialized knowledge of securities laws.
That's why lawyers may be the unsung heroes of impact investing and community capital.
Attorneys play a crucial role in supporting impact investing and social entrepreneurship. From Benefit Corp. legislation to regulations facilitating place-based investing, these developments would not have happened without some very committed lawyers.
And while we don't often think of law as a creative field, lawyers can be every bit as innovative as the typical hoodie-wearing Silicon Valley entrepreneur. A growing number of sympathetic attorneys are actively and vigorously using existing tools and structures to find creative ways to make a wide variety of initiatives possible. (Hello, Sustainable Economies Law Center!)
Employees of the nonprofit TechSoup, which launched a Reg A offering with the help of Grunin award finalist Cutting Edge Capital.
These unsung innovators were the focus of a recent conference in New York. Called Legal Issues in Social Entrepreneurship and Impact Investing—in the US and Beyond and hosted by New York University School of Law's Grunin Center for Law and Social Entrepreneurship, the two-day proceedings investigated topics ranging from ensuring that communities benefit from Opportunity Zones to embedding the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into deals and blending capital sources to scale impact.
More Lawyers, Please
"Behind every pioneering social enterprise and new impact investment structure is a creative lawyer, often a whole team of creative lawyers," says Deborah Burand, faculty co-director at the NYU School of Law. "If the fields of social entrepreneurship and impact investing are to grow to their full potential, so too must the number of lawyers who are dedicated to applying their skills and talents to drive positive change and advance entrepreneurial solutions to the world's most pressing challenges."
With that in mind, Grunin also awarded its second Grunin Prize, which aims to highlight lawyers, legal teams, policymakers and others who've made significant contributions to the world of impact investing using existing tools or developing new ones.

Out of six finalists, the prize went to "pay for success" organization Social Finance, for its Veterans CARE social impact bond, or SIB (pictured above: Leslie Cornell,Social Finance associate general counsel (third from left) and Navjeet K. Bal, managing director and general counsel). SIBs aren't really bonds, but mechanisms for addressing social problems through which investors commit to pay for improved outcomes resulting in public sector savings.
Launched in 2018, Vets Care was the first such bond to bring together multiple layers of government—federal, state and local—and the first to focus on veterans. Its goal: expanding a workforce development program serving up to 480 veterans in Massachusetts, Boston and New York City. Investors will be repaid by up to $6 million in public funding from the Veterans' Administration, the state of Massachusetts and the cities of Boston and New York.
The pay for success idea sounds simple, but addressing the various payment obligations of all the many government payors, each beholden to its own legal and financial structures, and doing so for a single project with uniform metrics, was extremely complex. Social Finance ended up turning the standard SIB contract into two parts, one tailored to each payor's obligations and the other a uniform document with metrics and other features for the project as a whole. The team also created a new corporate structure to accommodate it all.
Other finalists included LeapFrog Investments, which pioneered an insurance product to protect fund investors wary of Overseas Private Investment Corp. (OPIC) participation by giving them preferential treatment in case of poor performance, and Cutting Edge Capital, a community capital-focused law firm, for its work on a direct public offering for the nonprofit TechSoup. The offering, on Cutting Edge Capital's sister site, SVX.US, marked the first time a nonprofit has raised funds through a Regulation A, tier II offering, allowing TechSoup to raise money from regular investors as well as institutions and wealthy individuals.
Here's more about all the finalists.

The CoffeeShop Blog: CoffeeShop 52 Week Baby's First Year 16x20 Storyboard!
CoffeeShop 52 Week Baby's First Year 16x20 Storyboard!
I had a reader mom request for a large 52 image storyboard she could use for her baby's first year. I love new ideas for things to make for my blog, so today I am excited to post the first of a series!
There are 52 cutouts for your favorite weekly baby photo, and two large cutouts in the middle. You could put a newborn photo on the left center cutout and a 1-year-old baby photo on the right center cutout. Then have it printed and framed for your wall! You can also use this on your website or blog.
This storyboard is a 16x20 layered psd file so you can add your images using clipping masks (tutorial and free action). If you haven't used my free action to automatically load your images in my storyboards, you should definitely try it out for this one since you have to load 54 images.
Loved this Storyboard! Saved me soooo much time from trying to do it on my own. Very excited to get the print out. Thank you!


SEATTLE — Oct. 26, 2009 — Biological species are often defined on the basis of reproductive isolation. Ever since Darwin pointed out his difficulty in explaining why crosses between two species often yield sterile or inviable progeny (for instance, mules emerging from a cross between a horse and a donkey), biologists have struggled with this question. New research into this field by basic scientists at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, published online Oct. 22 in Science Express, suggests that the solution to this problem lies within the "dark matter of the genome": heterochromatin, a tightly packed, gene-poor compartment of DNA found within the genomes of all nucleated cells.
"Speciation is one of the most fascinating, unsolved problems in biology," said Harmit Malik, Ph.D., an associate member of the Hutchinson Center's Basic Sciences Division and corresponding author of the paper.
Malik and first author Joshua Bayes, Ph.D., a former graduate student in the Malik lab, focused on understanding the cellular function of a particular fruit fly (Drosophila) gene dubbed Odysseus. The gene is so named because of its ability to cause havoc and male sterility when introduced into the genome of another species. Odysseus is a gene that is derived from a transcription factor, and it was long believed to be a protein that turned on expression of other genes in Drosophila testis.
Odysseus also had been previously shown to rapidly evolve in its DNA-binding domain. Based on this observation, Bayes and Malik reasoned that Odysseus must interact with some rapidly evolving DNA in the genome. They tested the hypothesis, first proposed by Malik and Hutchinson Center colleague Steven Henikoff, Ph.D., that such hybrid-sterility proteins may bind repetitive satellite DNA in heterochromatin. Such repeats are believed to evolve rapidly due to an "arms-race" for preferential transmission during the process of forming an egg, whereby only one of four chromosomes is non-randomly chosen to be included into the egg.
Consistent with this hypothesis, Bayes found that Odysseus proteins localize to heterochromatic DNA found next to centromeres and on gene-poor chromosomes, which leads to their decondensation. Dramatically, the hybrid-sterility-associated Odysseus from one species showed additional localization to the Y chromosome of the other species. Through experiments in cell lines and transgenic flies, Bayes further showed that Odysseus localization has rapidly evolved during recent evolution, evidence of the "arms-race" that drives rapid evolution of satellite DNA repeats. Altered expression and localization has profoundly deleterious consequences for the process of sperm formation, a process that remains a mystery and is under active study in the Malik lab.
The finding that rapidly evolving heterochromatin may underlie this phenomenon also ties in with other work in Malik's lab that explores how "mismatches" originating from rapid evolution of DNA and proteins could lead to chromosome segregation defects and aneuploidy events that are sometimes precursors in transitions to cancer.
Malik and Bayes have received recent honors for their work. Earlier this year Malik, a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Early Career Scientist, was awarded the Presidential Early Career Award for his unique combination of evolutionary and genetic approaches to tackle important problems like speciation and infectious disease. For his work describing the first-ever molecular explanation of a hybrid-sterility gene, Bayes earlier this year was awarded the prestigious Walter M. Fitch Prize. Bayes is now an HHMI postdoctoral research associate in the Department of Molecular and Cell Biology at the University of California, Berkeley.
Grants from the National Institutes of Health, the Mathers Foundation and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute funded this research.

Filling in the Blanks: A Prehistory of the Adult Coloring Craze
Its dizzy heights may have passed, but the fad for adult coloring books is far from over. Many trace the origins of such publications to a wave of satirical colouring books published in the 1960s, but as Melissa N. Morris and Zach Carmichael explore, the existence of such books, and the urge to colour the printed image, goes back centuries.
Uncolored portraits of the artists involved in the production of Leonhart Fuchs' De historia stirpium commentarii insignes— Source.
For many publishers around the world 2015 was, fiscally speaking, an excellent year — a welcome boost in an otherwise uncertain decade. But this upturn had a perhaps surprising source: coloring books for grown-ups. What strange winds conspired to suddenly urge adults in their droves to take up colored pencils again? Whatever the reasons, sales rocketed: Nielsen logged sales of 12 million for the category in 2015, up from a measly 1 million the year before. In February 2016, with the craze still going strong, New York Academy of Medicine Library gave birth to a new initiative called Color Our Collections Week, a scholarly take on the coloring trend. Now in its third year, the campaign sees, on the first week of February, archives, special collections, and libraries take to social media with individual images and even entire books compiled from their holdings for the public to color. While these chosen works are all in the public domain, and so can technically include (in the US at least) works published up until 1924, the images in these coloring books more typically hail from the fifteenth through eighteenth centuries. And it is in these images — published in the centuries prior to the advent of color printing — that we can see a precedent for this seemingly modern fad. While it may seem like simply jumping on the adult coloring bandwagon, Color Our Collections Week, with its naturally historical focus, is actually tapping into (and shedding light on) a tradition much older.
Last year, the New York Academy of Medicine Library chose an image from Leonhart Fuchs' monumental 1542 botanical work, De historia stirpium commentarii insignes ("Notable Commentaries on the History of Plants"), to promote the event. An archivist from the History of Science Collections at the University of Oklahoma chimed in on Twitter to say their own copy of this book had already been colored in.

Should we be surprised by this? Color Our Collections Week might give the impression that these images, from the era before colored printing, are at last being colored — rescued from their hitherto drab monochrome existence. Yet printed images from the early modern period were regularly colored by hand.
The practice goes back to the earliest days of print in the fifteenth century. Artists, printers, booksellers, consumers, and readers all applied color to originally black-and-white images. Before Gutenberg's innovation of the moveable-type press, both woodblock and engraved prints, single sheets with printed images, were popular in Germany and parts of Central Europe. They were used in various ways, and many people did what we might do with them — hung them on the walls of their home.
With the emergence of the printed book the coloring trend continued. Colored illustrations were common in medieval manuscript books, most notably in the intricately illuminated manuscripts produced by monastic institutions. The early printed books from the fifteenth century and after often imitated the textual design and illustrations of these medieval manuscript books. Indeed, illuminated manuscripts and printed books were not mutually exclusive: some printed books contain illumination, while some manuscripts have painted prints pasted into them. It would seem that at least some early printers and readers attempted to create color illustrations for these works the only way they knew how: by coloring the pictures themselves.

Fetty Wap Nitro Nation Stories is a five-chapter story about a young guy that builds a career as a racer. It should be noted at once that this Android application from the Studio Creative Mobile is not a full-fledged racing simulator – the possibilities for total control of the vehicle are largely limited. But for a casual race game is quite suitable.
The player is part of the star team and takes part in crazy races: there are records not only for speed but also courage. The first few races will be for training and useful to all participants: during the training mode, you get familiar with all the secrets and subtleties of participation in the races.
You must cope with everything regarding the management because the car picks up speed on its own and you, as the player, can only switch the gearbox and change the lane to get ahead of rivals. The use of nitro will allow the car to gain very fast high speed and leave the other participants of the race far behind. The in-game money earned for the successful completion of the race can be spent on the purchase of a new car or tuning your car.
Complete up your fleet, participate in races with friends – it will be even more fun than gambling!
