I know what you mean. I think it might look better if you changed up the pillows. Maybe get some lighter blue ones to match the light blue in the rug?
I agree, I think a flat quilt may look better.
A softer, slightly brighter yellow on the walls may actually work, too.
All in all, your room still looks cozy!
I like the all-white bedding!
That's funny. I sent for the same bedding and am not sure I like it in my room either. I like it in your room, but would lighten the pillows and use white lamp shades and maybe some light wall art above the bed. I love the wall color, though, but I think you're seeing too much brown. I'm heading toward a medium gray in my bedroom and will try the bedding again! Good Luck.

Chesanow "Sets Standard" With Her Book On Cheshire
by John Rook, Herald Staff
Jeanne Chesanow had a very simple goal when she began her last book: She wanted to look at Cheshire's history from beginning to end.
In "Glaciers to Greenhouses: Cheshire Then and Now," published in 2019, the community's long-serving Town Historian set out to chronicle almost every aspect of the town's past — from the Indigenous People who first occupied the land to how the environment influenced Cheshire's growth from a small settlement to an agricultural hub for the state.
She wanted her work to be a resource for future generations of Cheshire-ites.
Awards, however, were the furthest thing from her mind.
"It definitely wasn't anything I was thinking about when going through the process (of writing the book)," she recently told The Herald.
But accolades have arrived, the most recent of which came as a "very pleasant surprise," Chesanow admits. In September, "Glaciers to Greenhouses" was recognized by the Connecticut League of History Organizations as one of its Awards of Merit honorees, in the category of Educational Programs and Publications.
"It's an award (for which) you have to apply," explained Chesanow. "So, I decided I would try, but I wasn't sure what kind of competition there would be. There's always so many wonderful (works) being honored. When I found out, I was very happy."
This is not the first time Chesanow has received an award from the League. Several years back, Chesanow was instrumental in helping the Historical Society develop a specific app that allows residents to more easily access information about the community's past, putting local history one click away for interested residents. For that app, the entire group was honored.
This, however, is Chesanow's first individual award, yet speak to her about it for any length of time and you'll find that she feels somewhat differently.
"It really was a collective effort, so I see this (award) as an acknowledgement of that," she stated.
To her, the recognition is a testament to the kind of the collaboration it took to bring "Glaciers to Greenhouses" to life. In particular, Chesanow commends longtime residents David Schrumm and Tim Slocum, who helped with everything from research to finding the right publisher for the work.
"They were just so good and helped in such important ways," explained Chesanow.
In its description of the book, the League credited Cheshire's Town Historian for setting "a new standard" for local historical works. "Using an ecological approach to the town's development, it examines how the natural environment played a role in shaping early settlement into the greenhouse operations today. This town-focused study of environmental history, and its place in Connecticut's ecological and geographical framework, furthers our understanding of the state's history," the League stated, in a release dated July 29.
The group also credited Chesanow for focusing on the history of indigenous tribes that lived in the area well before any settlers, something that motivated Chesanow to write the book in the first place.
"I always thought that any town history should start with the people who were there first," said Chesanow. "They were on the land, lived there, and had a lifestyle we know something about."
Over the years, Chesanow had uncovered several pieces of information about the tribes who lived in the area, but realized that no one had taken "what we have and put it all together."
Recent discoveries on land purchased by the Town from John Ricci, owner of Ricci Construction, off of Fenn Road, has shed even more light on those early inhabitants, with remnants of burial grounds having been found and likely some areas that served as places of worship. It confirmed what Chesanow has believed all along — that the town was home to a vibrant indigenous population well before Wallingford farmers showed up.
"I would expect that we'll find, either on the property or nearby, traces of a village," she said.
Being acknowledged by the League for her effort to bring that history to life, along with being credited with setting a "new standard" for such research, was particularly gratifying for Chesanow.
"I liked that very much," she said, with a laugh. "I was thrilled to think I set some sort of standard. I have always felt that, in order to know where you are going in life, you have to know where you've been."
While the book has been out and available to readers for over a year, Chesanow is hoping that it will find a long life as a teaching guide for the community. Working off of the book, Chesanow is developing a new program based on the school year. With 180 days of classes, Chesanow is looking to put together 180 images that have historical significance. The hope would be that anyone interested in utilizing the materials — from parents to students to educators — can simply take the photos and weave them into a broader discussion about Cheshire's past.
"There will be photos, drawings, sketches. We'll have them online and all of it will be geared towards kids," explained Chesanow. "You can click on the image and there will be text where you can find out more. People can maybe make a game of it."
"Kids should grow up knowing something about their town," she continued.

They were the best of us. But they aren't here and, as they say..All that's needed for evil to triumph is that good men do nothing. And, right now, well..we're the only good that's left.
The Yeerk's declared all-out war on Earth. A massive takeover, subjecting all viable, healthy humans to infestation. Slavery, prisoners to their own bodies until the release of death. Sick? Old? Too bad. Exterminated if you were too unfortunate to find a place to hide.
Some humans did well. If you lived in the boondocks, yeah. You probably got out. You probably hid well enough. But we can't. We can't hide. We can't let them win. So we're fighting. Like they did.
• We opened, quite literally, today. We need members and, especially, leaders! Available also for play is James (as in the leader of the Auxiliary Animorphs), who, in this RP, goes on to recruit Animorphs nationwide before settling to lead a group in Seattle, Washington.
• We're an AU RP; the scenario is quite like The Familiar, but the Yeerks have not entirely won. Animorphs, free humans (Renegades), Controllers (including Vissers and Subvissers), and even most aliens are playable. If you particularly want to use a canon character, we'll see if we can work something out. We diverge from canon at about the time the Yeerks declare all-out war. (However they did not get ahold of the morphing cube.) At this point, the United States military has been defeated.
This looks cool, but why does Tobias have black hair?

PIRACY RISK AREA REDUCES, BUT VIGILANCE STILL ESSENTIAL
The Round Table of international shipping associations plus the OCIMF, representing the global shipping and oil industry, have announced the geographic boundaries of the 'High Risk Area' for piracy in the Indian Ocean have been reduced, with new advice issued to merchant ship operators.
The High Risk Area reflects the area where the threat from piracy exists, whilst recognising the ongoing containment of pirate attacks in the Indian Ocean. The industry group of shipping and oil industry organisations BIMCO, International Chamber of Shipping (ICS), INTERCARGO, INTERTANKO and the Oil Companies International Marine Forum (OCIMF) responsible for setting the High Risk Area emphasised that a serious threat remains despite the reduction to the area's geographic boundaries and that correct reporting, vigilance and adherence to 5th edition of the best management practice (BMP5) remains crucial.
The reduction to the High Risk Area takes full account of recent shipping industry experience, pirate intent and capability and follows extensive consultation with nations, collations and military naval forces, including Combined Maritime Forces, EUNAVFOR and the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO), which continue to provide vital advice and protection to shipping.
The regional UKHO Maritime Security Chart, Q6099 will be updated by Notice to Mariners and a new version produced to reflect these changes which take effect from 01 May 2019.
The area previously classified as "high risk" forms only a part of the area called the Voluntary Reporting Area (VRA);
Ships entering the VRA are encouraged to report to the UKMTO to be monitored during transit and register with the Maritime Security Centre for the Horn of Africa (MSCHOA);
Pre-transit risk assessments should take into account the latest information from both the VRA and High Risk Area.
The industry associations further emphasised that in view of the continuing threat of pirate attacks, shipping companies must continue to maintain full compliance with BMP5 and be vigilant in their voluntary reporting on piracy incidents, sighting of potential pirates, and any suspicious activity – as this provides crucial intelligence on risk levels in the area.
The industry associations will continue to monitor developments to the security situation, and will adjust the HRA again if and when the situation warrants it.
The advice can be downloaded via the industry organisations website.

New York Times architecture critic to talk social change at Taubman College
by Ben Vassar November 15, 2020 August 12, 2021
Why does architecture need a critic? Intention is never outcome, and a building's meaning is never fixed. As the stage for all of our lives, its subtle impacts can't be overlooked. The Michigan Daily sat down virtually with Michael Kimmelman, architecture critic at the New York Times, to talk preservation and affordable housing ahead of his virtual visit to Taubman College Monday night as this year's Raoul Wallenberg Lecturer.
Starting off with the question of preservation — What is its value? What does it safeguard? In discussing a piece he wrote about the Strand Bookstore last year, Kimmelman said, "It's not just the building itself — the container — but what it contains that is actually the repository of the community's identity and memory."
Now, Kimmelman isn't discounting the look of a building — that's obviously important. He brings up the issue, rather, because current preservation practice is centered around just that — cosmetics. The NYC Landmarks Preservation Commission, founded in 1963, is, in his words, an "architectural bulwark" against alterations to its city's historic facades. It lays no claim, however, to interiors nor the institutions that occupy them.
On second thought, this makes sense. A government agency shouldn't be playing favorites in the private sector. But Kimmelman points out that it's not unprecedented nor nontraditional to the way our government functions on the level of the individual:
"It's really dangerous territory when the city begins to favor some kinds of private businesses over another, but we have to do it anyway, with tax incentives and other kinds of benefits," he said.
"Places like San Francisco, where businesses are also threatened by runaway rental costs, have created funds and other mechanisms to provide a handful of businesses the opportunity of getting some assistance," said Kimmelman. "It's essentially intended to say to businesses on the cusp of closure, 'we'll give you enough to tide you over, but you're not going to become a public institution.'"
Kimmelman is referring here to San Francisco's Legacy Businesses Program started in 2015. Through it, businesses open 30 years or longer can apply for grants if they can also prove they've made "a significant impact on the history or culture of their neighborhood." It's by no means collusion, but it is a bit of favoritism.
Moving on to affordable housing, I told Kimmelman about Ann Arbor's Proposal C on the ballot on election day. Prop. C was a one-mill property tax for the construction of approximately 1,500 units of affordable housing over the course of 20 years, and it passed with a 73% vote. In lieu of these promising results, I asked him if he thought New York City had sufficient rent-controlled and subsidized housing.
"Well, that's a short answer: no," he said. Subsidized housing had been largely in the hands of private developers since the Nixon administration. This has undeniable advantages, but also makes public good dependent on private profit.
In short, he eventually said, "we can't continue to be in a situation where we don't invest in affordable housing for people because the ramifications are enormous on the rest of the economy. Health problems, homelessness problems, problems of policing and crime, mental health problems…" the list goes on.
Kimmelman has been waving the red flag on issues like these since his first piece under his current role in 2011 called, "In a Bronx Complex, Doing Good Mixes With Looking Good." In that piece, he wrote about Villa Verde, an unusual public housing project for its distinguished look, amenities like an on-site health clinic, and, correspondingly, a high cost per square foot.
Noble as its aims may have been, such expenditure didn't come without criticism for the 252-unit complex in a neighborhood with 66,450 people per square mile — almost 40% living below the National Poverty Line.
"If you're a housing advocate, and there's such a shortage of housing, that extra money could have gone to more units instead of to better design. So there was some debate as to whether it was an efficient use of funds, I think there's an argument that it was," Kimmelman said.
The architects and developers wanted a project that signaled what public housing could be. Kimmelman suggests that it achieved that — it doesn't blend into its context, it sits loudly at the foreground. It shows what happens when architects and developers meet community members where they are. As he says in the article, "What is that worth?"
Kimmelman acknowledges in his writing that architecture itself doesn't solve poverty and unemployment. But it has immeasurable value in uplifting the spirit and instilling a sense of pride in place. This extends far beyond housing: "public space, streets, parks, schools, transportation… they all work together to provide a decent, healthy life for people," he said.
Kimmelman will be speaking in greater depth on these issues Monday night at 6:00 p.m. with Taubman College Dean Jonathan Massey as well as the college's Dimensions and Agora student publications. As the Wallenberg lecturer, the conversation will be centered on "architecture as a humane social art." Registration is free and open to the public via this link.

Royal Enfield Bobber 830 cc details leak ahead of EICMA debut – To rival Harley, Triumph
Just a few days before Royal Enfield is all set to launch their most powerful motorcycles (650 Twins) till date, news has arrived that they might not be the most powerful Royal Enfield afterall. Yes, report by Autocar Pro says that Royal Enfield has developed a new twin cylinder 830 cc engine in association with Polaris Industries (the owners of Indian Motorcycles).
This new parallel twin 830 cc engine will be the most powerful engine ever made by Royal Enfield. It will be first seen on a Bobber styled motorcycle, that will be showcased as a concept at the EICMA show next week in Milan. Teaser of the same has been officially shared by Royal Enfield and can be seen below.
The news about Royal Enfield's plans to enter bigger cc segment of above 750cc was first reported back in August this year. The report revealed that two new platforms are being developed, which are as of now codenamed as 'Q' and 'K'. Both these new platforms are being developed exclusively to launch bigger cc motorcycles in the range of 750 to 1000 cc.
Speaking about the new engine of Royal Enfield, it is a liquid cooled, twin cylinder, 834cc, BS6 compliant engine. Output of this engine is expected to be in the range of 80-90hp. Development of this engine started years ago, when Eicher and Polaris became partners via JV in 2012.
To the public, it was announced that the two were getting together to develop low cost commercial vehicles (Multix). What was kept as a secret, was the fact that the JV will also allow Royal Enfield gain technical knowhow of developing bigger cc engines from Polaris Industries; who are also the owner of Indian Motorcycles.
The new Royal Enfield 830 cc Bobber concept has been developed at the company's technical center in the UK. It is expected to launch by end of 2019. Price could be in the region of Rs 5-6 lakhs, considering that the motorcycle will be made in India at the company plant in Chennai. It will take on similar styled bikes from Triumph and Harley Davidson.

Network Rail submits plan to build railway sleeper facility in Bescot
UK's Network Rail has submitted a planning application to build a railway sleeper facility in Bescot sidings, Sandwell.

The rail infrastructure manager submitted the application following extensive consultations with local people and politicians.
Sandwell Borough Council and its planning committee will review the plan. The decision is expected by November.
The final plan involves building the facility approximately 600m from the originally proposed site. The location is further away from local properties and will enable Network Rail to build a new link road to improve access and mitigate possible traffic congestion.
The Bescot site, selected by Network Rail in April 2017, will deliver up to 600,000 railway sleepers annually, accounting for nearly 60% of the country's yearly requirement.
Currently, the UK has two sites at Doncaster and Washwood Heath in Birmingham, which manufacture railway sleepers.
The new railway sleeper site will replace the Washwood Heath location, which will be demolished as part of the HS2 project.
During construction, the Bescot site is estimated to create 150 construction jobs and up to 100 permanent jobs once operational.
Network Rail programme director Anthony Marley said: "We have met with, listened to and taken on board the feedback we have received from local people regarding our plans. They have helped shape the application we have made.
"This new facility will bring millions of pounds to the local economy and support hundreds of jobs in the West Midlands.
"We have already seen significant interest in these jobs, with approximately half of respondents welcoming these new employment prospects. We will continue to work with Sandwell council as our application progresses."

Q: Angular 2: ERROR TypeError: .. is not a function I am trying to use angualrio to read from an array from a json file following this tutorial getting-started-with-angular-2-step-by-step-6-consuming-real-data-with-http/.
However I am getting the error
ERROR TypeError: undefined is not a function

The error occurs at this line
return response.json().map(this.toEvent)

The line above is different from the tutorial since http response had been updated. reponse.json() now return Body.json()
To simplify and mimic my issue I have created a json array x as following
let x = [{
  eventId:132510417453240,
  title:"Discover",
  description:"do",
  startDateTime:1512316800000,
  endDateTime:1512320400000,
  url:null
}]

And then using the line this.toEvent(x[0]) called the function below
private toEvent(r:any): Event{
let event = <Event>({
  eventId: Number.parseInt(r.eventId),
  title: r.title,
  description: r.description,
  startDateTime: Number.parseInt(r.startDateTime),
  endDateTime: Number.parseInt(r.endDateTime),
  url: r.url
});
console.log('Parsed event:', event);
return event;
}

Yet I end up with the error ERROR TypeError: this.toEvent is not a function
UPDATE (In response to @Yonexbat)
toEvent is in the same scope I am calling it from.
Both function are right after each other in the class as following
private toEvent(r:any): Event{
    let event = <Event>({
      eventId: Number.parseInt(r.eventId),
      title: r.title,
      description: r.description,
      startDateTime: Number.parseInt(r.startDateTime),
      endDateTime: Number.parseInt(r.endDateTime),
      url: r.url
    });
    console.log('Parsed event:', event);
    return event;
  }

  private mapEvents(response:Response): Event[]{
    // The response of the API has a results
    // property with the actual results
    console.log(response)
    console.log(response.json()[1])
    console.log(response.text()[1])

    let events : Event[] = [];
    events = response.json()
    //return events
    return response.json().map((x) => this.toEvent(x))
  }

A: Well, this is not a solution but here I can format the text. I tried this and this works in Chrome:
import {Event} from './Event';

export class Test {

    private toEvent(r: number): Event {
        const event: Event = new Event();
        return event;
    }

    public mapEvents(): Event[] {
        const input = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
        return input.map((x) => this.toEvent(x));
    }

}

Possibly response.json() is a promise, and not an array. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Body/json
Try
const toEventFunction = this.toEvent;
response.json().then(data => {
   let result = data.map(x => toEventFunction(x));
});


So here's the thing guys, I'm starting to run out of ways to intro posts about big, huge feature roll-outs. This #growthsprint has us dropping so many hits, we're like Motown in the 60's. I'm all "look out – it's the Jackson 5! Oh whaaa? There go The Supremes! Get outta town daddy-o, is that my man, Marvin Gaye?".
And here we are, again. With another BIG ONE.
Last week we intro'd you to the woopty line thing, now we're dropping the full noise analytics report on you.
If you're on a paid plan, this thing is going to be a gold-mine of insights about how people are completing your quizzes, which ads or sourcing channels are sending you the best quality applicants, and when and where people are getting stuck.
If you're not on a paid plan, here's where you can upgrade and get access to your own quiz data.
Before we go any further, you can find your report by jumping into your job/quiz and clicking on the graph icon. See it sitting there next to the envelope, all full of scientific promise?
This gives you a snapshot view of how your quiz is performing. One key thing to note here: Unlike other recruiting tools you may be familiar with (I'm looking at you, psychometric-guy), don't automatically assume a longer "Average completion time" is a bad thing. If you have a few free-text questions that are asking your applicants to really think hard or creatively, they'll take a little longer to answer. This can actually be a positive thing, depending on the person you're looking for and the questions they're taking ages over. One of our developers, Dan, takes like 25minutes to answer a simple question about lunch. That agonising consideration is what makes him so brilliantly awesome at his job.
This where you find out what advertising channels are actually working for you. You can see how many applicants are coming through job board ads (like TradeMe or Seek), or via your website or social media platforms. The real gold? You can also see what quality of candidates you're getting from those places. So you might find you're getting heaps of candidates from Seek, but actually the ones who come via Twitter are scoring WAY higher so maybe you should be focussing your advertising spend there instead.
Not only can you see the woopty line thing on these reports, you can also see how long each question is taking to answer (on average) and how where people are dropping off. We actually used this the other day to analyse a client's live quiz. We saw applicants were dropping off at an important (but tricky) free text question that was sitting near the start of the quiz. We moved it down the end and, low and behold, the drop-off rates reduced heaps.
There are a stack of graphs that will show you useful things like what time of day people are clicking into the quiz, and when they're actually responding (completing questions). Handy for timing advertising campaigns. You can also see the spread by date and week – particularly useful for those general "do you want to work with us" talent pool quizzes.
So whether you're reporting to your boss, your team or just like graphs a lot, this new feature is going to make your Weirdly experience heaps richer and way more fun.
If you're on a free plan and want to learn more about upgrading to get these fancy Weirdly analytics features, click here.

518 F. 2d 980 - United States v. Rich
518 F2d 980 United States v. Rich
UNITED STATES of America, Appellee,
Robert Kenneth RICH, Appellant.
Larry J. WEBER, Appellant.
Nos. 74-1861, 75-1006.
Eighth Circuit.
Submitted May 15, 1975.
Decided June 25, 1975.
Rehearing and Rehearing En Banc Denied July 16, 1975.
Robert G. Duncan, Kansas City, Mo., for appellant Robert Kenneth Rich.
James R. Wyrsch, Kansas City, Mo., for appellant Larry J. Weber.
James C. England, Asst. U. S. Atty., Kansas City, Mo., for appellee.
Before LAY and HENLEY, Circuit Judges, and REGAN, District Judge.*
HENLEY, Circuit Judge.
The defendants, Robert Kenneth Rich and Larry J. Weber, appeal from judgments of conviction entered following their conviction by a jury for conspiracy to manufacture and distribute a controlled substance in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 846.1 Each defendant was sentenced to three years imprisonment to be followed by a two year special parole term under 21 U.S.C. § 841(b)(1)(B).
The primary issue on appeal is whether the district court2 erred in admitting into evidence certain tape recordings of telephone conversations and in allowing the jury to read transcripts of these conversations. We affirm.
Defendants Rich and Weber were charged along with seven other individuals in a single count indictment with conspiracy to manufacture controlled substances, to-wit: methamphetamine and 3, 4 methyledenioxy amphetamine (MDA). Severance was granted to those defendants who indicated that they would testify at trial. The remaining four defendants were tried jointly, and on August 15, 1974 the jury convicted Rich and Weber and acquitted the other two defendants.
The indictment alleged that the nine original defendants committed at least sixteen overt acts between July 26, 1973 and January 14, 1974 in furtherance of the conspiracy. Evidence introduced by the government showed that defendants Rich and Weber engaged in numerous acts from which the jury could have inferred an agreement to manufacture illicit drugs. The government proved that Weber's girl friend, Cynthia Shinkle, placed eleven large orders to chemical companies for laboratory equipment and chemicals between July 26, 1973 and January 14, 1974. Shinkle and Weber lived together on a farm near Columbia, Missouri. The government connected defendant Rich with the alleged conspiracy by showing that Rich and Weber had been observed on January 21, 1974 transporting chemical containers from Rich's farmhouse in Fulton, Missouri into Columbia, Missouri, and that Rich had traveled to Chicago, Illinois on January 29, 1974 to inspect the contents of several boxes containing chemicals and chemical apparatus which had been ordered by someone using a telephone listed in Shinkle's name. Eventually federal agents seized these boxes at a warehouse and discovered that they had been stored on April 1, 1974 in care of Rich. Discarded chemical containers were observed at both Rich's and Weber's farms and a strong chemical odor was detected at Rich's premises. On April 4, 1974 defendant Weber sold a quantity of phenyl-2-propanone, an essential ingredient of MDA, to a Mr. Larry Walsh.
At this time Mr. Walsh was a "cooperating individual" who had agreed to assist the government in its investigation in exchange for a promise of immunity from prosecution for his past drug violations. Besides purchasing the P-2-P from Weber, Walsh agreed in mid-March to permit the government to record his telephone conversations with some of the original nine defendants. Between March 21, 1974 and April 4, 1974, the government recorded ten such telephone conversations. These recordings were made by attaching a telephone induction coil to the receiver of the telephone and connecting a cassette tape recorder to the induction coil. All but one recording were made by Walsh making or receiving calls at the Drug Enforcement Administration headquarters at Kansas City, Missouri. Before each conversation, federal agents would secure Walsh's consent to record the conversation. During each conversation, Walsh sat beside two agents who operated the recording equipment. Only an April 3, 1974 call from Weber to Walsh at Walsh's residence was recorded outside the presence of federal agents. Transcripts were made of these recordings.
The recordings implicated not only the declarants but also other individuals alleged to have been co-conspirators, including Rich and Weber. In many instances, Rich and Weber were parties to these conversations with Walsh.
The government also recorded a conversation between Walsh and Weber through the use of a "Kel-Com" transmitter attached to Walsh's body. During this conversation on April 4, 1974 Weber sold the P-2-P to Walsh. The recording was almost inaudible and so no transcript was shown to the jury. Later that day, the grand jury returned an indictment and both Rich and Weber were arrested on April 5, 1974.
The defendants first argue that these recordings should not have been admitted into evidence because the conversations were not made during and in furtherance of the alleged conspiracy. The defendants contend that the conspiracy to manufacture drugs, if any, terminated in late January, 1974. The government contends that while the laboratory had been dismantled in January, the defendants merely secreted their laboratory equipment and fully intended to resume active manufacture as soon as a pending grand jury investigation had been completed. Thus, the government claims that the conspiracy lasted until the time of the defendants' arrest on April 5, 1974.
It is axiomatic that hearsay statements made by a conspirator out of the presence of the other co-conspirators may be used against not only the declarant but also against his co-conspirators. United States v. Overshon, 494 F.2d 894, 898 (8th Cir.), cert. denied, 419 U.S. 853, 95 S.Ct. 96, 42 L.Ed.2d 85 (1974). However, such statements may be considered by a jury only if it finds from independent evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that (1) a conspiracy existed; (2) the person making the statement and the defendant against whom the statement is used were members of the conspiracy; and (3) the statement was made during and in furtherance of the conspiracy. United States v. Jimenez, 496 F.2d 288, 291 (5th Cir. 1974); United States v. Pennett, 496 F.2d 293, 296 (10th Cir. 1974). As used in this context, the term "conspiracy" means an agreement between two or more persons to accomplish an unlawful purpose or to accomplish a lawful purpose by unlawful means.3
In reviewing a jury finding of guilt in a criminal case, an appellate court is required to view the evidence in the light most favorable to the government and to accept as established all reasonable inferences to support the conviction. United States v. Cummings, 507 F.2d 324, 329 (8th Cir. 1974); United States v. Gaskill, 491 F.2d 981, 982 (8th Cir. 1974). Applying this standard, we find that the jury reasonably could have found from the independent evidence that a conspiracy to manufacture illicit drugs was formed in 1973 between defendants Rich and Weber and the other declarants in the telephone conversations. The jury also could have concluded that this conspiracy continued into April, 1974 and that active manufacturing had been suspended only temporarily until the grand jury investigation cooled off. Thus, the recorded conversations would have been made during the existence and "in furtherance" of the conspiracy and could have been considered by the jury in deciding whether any one of the conspirators took an overt act in furtherance of the conspiracy.
Several commentators have noted that courts have tended to broadly construe the requirement that the co-conspirator's statement be made in furtherance of the conspiracy, so long as the hearsay statement sought to be admitted was uttered during the active life of the conspiracy under circumstances indicating reliability and provided the statement related to the conspiracy itself.
United States v. Overshon, supra, at 899.
While the most damaging statements were made by Weber and Rich themselves, two other original defendants made statements which incriminated Weber and Rich. These statements were properly admitted into evidence as substantial independent evidence existed that the declarants were also part of the conspiracy with Rich and Weber. Whether the jury actually considered these statements against Weber and Rich is of no consequence on appeal since the trial judge properly instructed the jury concerning the circumstances in which the statements could be considered as to the defendants.
Secondly, the defendants claim that the telephone and Kel-Com recordings were admitted into evidence in violation of their Fourth Amendment rights. This argument was rejected recently in United States v. McMillan,508 F.2d 101 (8th Cir. 1974), and we perceive of no reason to overrule that precedent as urged by defendants. The government does not engage in a "search" within the meaning of the Fourth Amendment when the defendants' telephone conversations with an informant are electronically monitored by a government agent with the "consent" of the informant. Id. at 104. The same rule applies when the government monitors conversations by use of a transmitter with the consent of one of the parties to the conversation. United States v. White, 401 U.S. 745, 91 S.Ct. 1122, 28 L.Ed.2d 453 (1971) (plurality opinion); United States v. Lippman, 492 F.2d 314, 318 (6th Cir. 1974), cert. denied, 419 U.S. 1107, 95 S.Ct. 779, 42 L.Ed.2d 803 (1975); United States v. Dowdy, 479 F.2d 213, 229 (4th Cir.), cert. denied, 414 U.S. 823, 94 S.Ct. 124, 38 L.Ed.2d 56 (1973).
The fact that Walsh became a government informant in exchange for a promise of immunity from prosecution in no way diminishes the voluntariness of his "consent" to the monitoring of his conversations with the defendants and the other alleged conspirators. United States v. Dowdy, supra, at 229; see United States v. Bonanno, 487 F.2d 654, 658-59 (2d Cir. 1973).
The defendants further allege that interception and recording of their telephone conversations is prohibited by Title III of the 1968 Omnibus Crime Control Act, 18 U.S.C. § 2510 et seq. However, 18 U.S.C. § 2511(c) specifically authorizes the type of interception at issue:
It shall not be unlawful under this chapter for a person acting under color of law to intercept a wire or oral communication, where such person is a party to the communication or one of the parties to the communication has given prior consent to such interception.
Drug Enforcement Administration agents clearly were acting "under color of law" when they recorded Walsh's conversations. The only instance where federal agents failed to directly supervise the recording of a telephone conversation was when Walsh recorded a call from Weber received at Walsh's residence. Nevertheless, Walsh was acting at the direction of government investigators, and in the limited circumstances of this case we believe that this particular conversation was recorded by a person "acting under color of law."
The defendants' remaining contention that the monitoring in question violated state and federal tariff regulations because no bleeper device was attached to the telephone is frivolous as those tariffs on their face apply only to persons acting in their private capacities.
An arrest warrant was issued for defendant Weber and his girl friend, Cynthia Shinkle, following the return of the grand jury indictment on April 4, 1974. At that time, Weber and Shinkle were living together at a farmhouse located in Boone County, Missouri. At approximately 11:20 a.m. on April 5, 1974, five federal and state officers arrived at the farmhouse to execute the warrants. They noticed three cars parked outside the house. The officers split up with two agents going to the rear door and the other agents going to the front door. After announcing their identity and purpose and having received no response, the officers entered through both doors. After finding two unidentified individuals asleep in the living room, the officers moved throughout the house to ascertain whether Weber and Shinkle were present. While so doing, they observed some drug paraphernalia and chemical apparatus. Weber and Shinkle were eventually located in a bedroom. Shinkle was informed that her car was being seized pursuant to 21 U.S.C. § 881(a)(4) and that she could remove her personal possessions from the automobile. En route to pick up these items, she requested permission to pass through the garage since it was the most direct route to the car. While passing through the garage, the officers noticed several containers of chemicals in plain view. At trial the officers testified as to what they observed in plain view while executing the arrest warrants and while escorting Shinkle through the garage. However, none of the items observed was introduced into evidence.
The defendants' contention that the search of the farmhouse was unreasonable must fail. In executing these arrest warrants, the agents were entitled to make a quick and cursory search of the house for other occupants since they had observed three cars parked outside and had found only two persons asleep in the living room. United States v. Blake, 484 F.2d 50, 57 (8th Cir. 1973), cert. denied, 417 U.S. 949, 94 S.Ct. 3076, 41 L.Ed.2d 669 (1974); United States v. Briddle, 436 F.2d 4, 7 (8th Cir. 1970), cert. denied, 401 U.S. 921, 91 S.Ct. 910, 27 L.Ed.2d 824 (1971). Since the agents had a right to conduct a security check throughout the entire house, they could testify as to what they saw in plain view. Harris v. United States, 390 U.S. 234, 236, 88 S.Ct. 992, 19 L.Ed.2d 1067 (1968).
It is clear from the evidence that officers had probable cause to believe that Shinkle's car had been used to facilitate the transportation of controlled substances or equipment used to manufacture controlled substances. Thus, they could immediately seize her car pursuant to 21 U.S.C. § 881(b)(1). Accordingly, they acted reasonably in escorting Shinkle at her request through the garage and could testify to what they saw in plain view while doing so. O'Reilly v. United States, 486 F.2d 208, 210 (8th Cir.), cert. denied, 414 U.S. 1043, 94 S.Ct. 546, 38 L.Ed.2d 334 (1973).
The defendants claim that the district court erred in failing to quash the indictment on the grounds that the indictment (1) charged three separate crimes in one count; (2) contained several typographical errors; and (3) failed to state the schedule of each controlled substance the defendants allegedly conspired to manufacture.
A review of the record convinces us that the defendants were in no way prejudiced by these alleged errors. An indictment will not be dismissed because of spelling errors unless the defendant can affirmatively show that some prejudice resulted. Failure to list the schedule of each controlled substance has no bearing on whether the indictment states an offense against the United States. Assuming that the substances mentioned are controlled substances, the schedule into which the controlled substance is classified is not relevant to the offense itself but only to the sentence that can be imposed. Finally, the record clearly shows that the jury was instructed only on the charge of conspiracy to manufacture a controlled substance and that sentence was imposed on only this charge. Thus, defendants cannot contend that they were prejudiced because the indictment was allegedly duplicitous.
The defendants' last major contention is that the special parole statute, 21 U.S.C. § 841(b)(1)(B), is unconstitutionally vague since it does not delineate the maximum limit of the special parole term and does not specify the conditions of parole.4 We are unconvinced that fundamental fairness is violated when a convicted felon is not told in advance of his release from prison the conditions of his parole. United States v. Simpson,481 F.2d 582, 585 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, 414 U.S. 1095, 94 S.Ct. 728, 38 L.Ed.2d 553 (1973). Indeed, it is frequently impossible to ascertain before completion of the period of imprisonment what conditions will be suitable for parole.
The special parole statute in question provides for a minimum parole term of two years following imprisonment but does not specify the maximum term of parole which can be imposed. The courts interpreted the Lindbergh Act, Ch. 271, §§ 1, 3, 47 Stat. 326, as setting a maximum sentence of life although the Act explicitly permitted the court to sentence the kidnapper "in its discretion." Bates v. Johnston, 111 F.2d 966 (9th Cir.), cert. denied, 311 U.S. 646, 61 S.Ct. 17, 85 L.Ed. 412 (1940); Bailey v. United States, 74 F.2d 451, 452 (10th Cir. 1934). Similarly, we read the special parole statute in question as providing a maximum term of parole of life. Due process is not violated by failure of a sentencing statute to specify the maximum sentence of imprisonment or parole. Earin v. Beto, 453 F.2d 376 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, 406 U.S. 909, 92 S.Ct. 1618, 31 L.Ed.2d 819 (1972).
We have considered defendants' other assignments and find no prejudicial error.
John K. Regan, United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri, sitting by designation
21 U.S.C. § 846 states:
Any person who attempts or conspires to commit any offense defined in this subchapter is punishable by imprisonment or fine or both which may not exceed the maximum punishment prescribed for the offense, the commission of which was the object of the attempt or conspiracy.
21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1) provides:
(a) Except as authorized by this subchapter, it shall be unlawful for any person knowingly or intentionally
(1) to manufacture, distribute, or dispense, or possess with intent to manufacture, distribute or dispense, a controlled substance . . . .
The Honorable Elmo B. Hunter, United States District Judge for the Western District of Missouri
However, in order to be convicted of the crime of "conspiracy," the government must show by evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that one or more of the conspirators committed an overt act in furtherance of the conspiracy. Cave v. United States, 390 F.2d 58, 68 (8th Cir.), cert. denied, 392 U.S. 906, 88 S.Ct. 2059, 10 L.Ed.2d 1365 (1968). Thus, the incriminating statements of one conspirator can be used against a co-conspirator to prove that either conspirator committed an overt act in furtherance of the conspiracy
21 U.S.C. § 841(b)(1)(B) provides in pertinent part:
. . . Any sentence imposing a term of imprisonment under this paragraph shall, in the absence of such a prior conviction, impose a special parole term of at least 2 years in addition to such term of imprisonment and shall, if there was such a prior conviction, impose a special parole term of at least 4 years in addition to such term of imprisonment.

There's really nothing that needs to be said about that, right? The man clearly has some personal issues to work through.
So, here it is: a handy guide to the absurd defenses of Driscoll fanboys and people who just find his public comments too inconvenient and embarrassing to handle honestly. What did I miss? Share your favorite example of ridiculous Driscoll apologism in the comments!
No one respects women more than Mark. He hates violence against women. Mark is just a provocateur. People hate/persecute Mark because he preaches harsh bible truth. You're giving non-Christians excuses to slander and hate us! People have come to Christ through Mark. Don't lose sight of the big picture.
"Jesus wasn't just a gentle peacemaker." This is sinful gossip and slander. You're turning Christians against each other and destroying our unity. Mark is just rough around the edges. He's refreshingly blunt. Mark loves his wife and celebrates femininity, just not in men.
SPACE You're supporting worldly criticisms of Mark by unbelievers. Why are you so emotional/angry/bitter?
Mars Hill is growing. God is really using Mark. You haven't listened to every sermon Mark Driscoll has ever preached. You should share your concerns with Mark privately. Matthew 18! Just pray for Mark and pay more attention to your own sin. Mark just wants men to feel comfortable in church.
If we ignore him he'll just go away. You should be working towards love and reconciliation with Driscoll. People who call Mark out are the real bullies. You're just as much of a sinner as Mark. Mark is doing God's work in godless, unchurched Seattle.
Today is the 100th anniversary of the first International Women's Day. A friend of mine shared the Audre Lorde quote below in honor of the day; it's a timely reminder that feminist activism that doesn't embrace and center the diversity of women's voices and experiences can never truly advance the causes of justice and equality. Today is a good day for celebrating the progress that has been made in the past century in defending women's rights, but also a good day to think about how failure to acknowledge the realities of power and privilege have allowed mainstream feminism to focus disproportionately on the needs and experiences of certain women while neglecting and excluding others – such as women of color, trans women, disabled women, and poor women – and a good day to commit to work for a feminism that fights for all women.
"Advocating the mere tolerance of difference between women is the grossest reformism. It is a total denial of the creative function of difference in our lives. Difference must be not merely tolerated, but seen as a fund of necessary polarities between which our creativity can spark like a dialectic. Only then does the necessity for interdependency become unthreatening. Only within that interdependency of different strengths, acknowledged and equal, can the power to seek new ways of being in the world generate, as well as the courage and sustenance to act where there are no charters.
We definitely need that in the trans community Access to education and training in science and technology would go a long way toward providing that decent pathway to meaningful work for transwomen.
But at the same time we need laws on the books to protect our human rights so that we can get that education without being harassed. We need legislation with enforcement teeth in our various nations so that we can confidently enter the workforce and compete for, get and hold whatever job we acquire without interference from the transbigots who would seek to impede our social and economic progress.
And yes, we need more transwomen willing to fight for our human rights as spelled out in the Yogyakarta Principles and the UN Charter. . We need transwomen tough minded enough to run for public office in our various nations to help craft those laws that will help our transsisters get that employment to improve their lives..
And where do we transwomen fit in on this International Womens Day 2011? Alongside our cissisters as allies ready, willing and able to do our share to help them out, and we hope they feel the same way about us as well..
