Watchmakers tools, and other interesting things.
The Versalab Sharpener can sharpen most watchmaker screwdrivers quickly and accurately from 15 to over 17 degrees, included angle, depending on the user's setting. The grain of the sharpening is across the blade and so helps keep the blade in the screw slot. It produces a strong wedge, not a hollow ground, shaped blade. The two faces of the wedge are automatically parallel. A few strokes on the tip across the stone will nicely generate a flat on the tip.
It is extremely fast and accurate to use.
The design provides for blade lengths (from the front of the handle) from 7.5 to 17mm. and handle diameters to 5mm.
Comes complete with parts to preliminarily align the stone, and a hex wrench to manipulate the stone set screws.
The price is $265 with one stone + $9.50 standard shipping in the lower 48 U.S. states.

In this talk, I will share a few stories of PhD research. Motivated by applications from single-molecule microscopy in biology to computational imaging in astronomy. In the first part of the talk, I will talk about the problem of non-stationary blind super-resolution, in which the point spread functions associated with point sources need to be calibrated. We propose a flexible atomic norm minimization framework to solve this daunting inverse problem. Along the way, we also derive a sample complexity bound that is optimal for this problem. The second part of the talk will discuss my summer internship project at Technicolor Research. Motivated by the business at Technicolor, I will explore the possibility of using deep neural networks for standard dynamic range (SDR) to high dynamic range (HDR) wide color conversion. Data collection, deep neural network models training and testing, as well as experimental results will be presented.


Communities>High Blood Pressure / Hypertension>Actively fine one day.. the next day taking a pill for high blood pressure.
I'm going to give a lot of info that I can here about me and my health.
I'm currently on a leave from work to help fix my health. My sleep has been very bad getting around 2h - 4 hours a day for 4 days a week while on my days off I get around 7 - 9. I have been doing this for about 2 years. My eating habit is just as bad while I work. I'm gone around 13 - 14 hours a day for 4 days a week. My job is active and I can be walking up to 10 miles a night to more than that.. at a fast walking pace. I do not wear shorts and I try to avoid the sun. I also have been taking tums - antacid tablets almost every day somewhere between 1000mg to 7000mg. Which is a lot of calcium. I have a history of 5 years of panic attacks that I got over in Feb 2012 and started work in Nov. that year. I went from inactive but skinny to active really quick. I do once in a while get anxiety.
Usually my blood pressure is low around 125 - 135 with the bottom number around 80 - 85. That inactive and active surprisingly. But the heart beat was around 80 - 95 when I was inactive. Since working, it's been around 55 - 75 resting.
I've been on a leave from work since Sept 22.. It wasn't until that next day I was feeling a little strange but not much to bother me.
So what I can gather here.. is possible low Vitamin D and increase of calcium, stress hormones.
I can understand I could have these problems, but the stress hormones should be decreased now since I'm getting around 7 - 9 hours of sleep each night for the past 7 days.
When I woke up on the 29th my pressure was 114/76 HB 54 ! I did take a pill before bed. But several hours later it was 147/90 HB 90. Then around 6 hours later 160/90 HB 97. Still hasn't been 24 hours for the next pill. I don't know what is really going on here.
I keep thinking it's the calcium and I think it's the sleep. Like my body is getting all this sleep now and my heart just decides to pump harder. I don't know. I really don't understand while my SYS and DIA decided to change that fast.
Any thought? I wanted to talk to the RN that prescribed me Metoprolol Succ 25mg and suggest getting blood work done on vitamin deficiency and calcium buildup. Couple years ago I had scans done and they pointed out that I had some calcification. Maybe this would tell something? Getting blood work. Any other testing I could do, and do you think this is just temporary?
I need help with this because my heart rate keeps wanting to touch 100 also.
I think you are getting overly panicked. FYI your BP often shoots up early in the morning. Around 6am it increases, its called the circadian rhythm, so it could be one reason for the higher numbers. Also you are probably there paranoid waiting to take the next reading. In this scene, its going to go up for sure. Your HR is not too bad? Normal is 60 to 100 BPM, so you are within normal range. I appreciate you are getting a bit close to 100, but dont be too worried.
Yes, I do understand it going up do to certain situations and just the normal way it works. Although I had it change in 1 hour by 30 points from 142 to 108 and back up to 127 from 1 hour to the next hour. Other than that, I did get blood work done and I do have a deficiency in D. So I'm taking Vit D2 50,000 IU. Also I forgot to mention my heart rate did go up to 144 when I did my first reading on the 27th.

I've seen two TV ads for the Carpenter Labor Government in Western Australia, both with low production values and I think strategically ineffective. The hero is the Premier, dressed in a smart suit and tie. In the first ad, he never looks at the camera. By now this guy is a practised media performer and in natural mode, he comes across as a genuine, intelligent person. But some bone-head has conceived this ad where the Premier is looking away from the camera for the whole time. The effect is to make him look wooden and shifty.
Two common mistakes in contemporary advertising are to underestimate the intelligence of the audience and overstate your own worth. Both are at work here. The ad starts with the assertion that the state government inherited a weak economy and has turned it into a powerhouse.
Taking credit for this undermines credibility. Far better to have said, 'as you know WA is currently the fastest growing economy; we're actually not taking credit for that but we believe we've done a good job of managing state finances and investing in sensible projects…' Political advertising should aim to cement credibility and make you look reasonable, not show how partisan you are.
The more recent ad contrasts said schmick Premier with an unflattering photo of the Opposition Leader. It's black and white, out of focus and his eyes are closed. The audio describes Colin Barnett as a 'flip-flop' man (new heights in sophisticated invective) and it verges on insulting. The Labor Government is in a position of strength but using negative advertising packed with pejoratives makes them look petty and insecure. It's just shabby.
It looks like strategy is being dictated by party leaders who have little understanding of advertising and insufficient contact with mainstream society.
I would go further. Not only strategically ineffective, but actually damaging. It makes it seem as if Labor are running scared, and a resorting to desperate measures. Colin Barnett has gone from looking like a last gasp drop in leader to a real threat, and he hasn't had to do anything.
And where do they go to now, if (perhaps now even when) the polls start showing a swing towards the Opposition?
In further developments, ALP State Secretary Bill Johnston, (I think I'm right in saying he was behind the TV ad) was implicated today as the architect of an anti-Troy Buswell web site. As if they needed to remind the public about that sorry episode. More negative advertising. More predictable moral high-grounding. Disappointing.
Well I've just seen the Liberal Party's response. It is a fine piece of 1970s political advertising; completely banal. Promising 'better education', 'better health' but specifying nothing. The cliché of the bookcase in the background. Unsophisticated. Old fashioned. I want to live in America.


Canada is experiencing a labour shortage and many of the unfilled positions during Q3 were from the oil and natural gas industry. The upstream and midstream sectors of the industry employed over 176,000 people, a 3% increase from Q2. However, the labour shortage isn't due to a growing industry. Overall, the oil and gas industry employment is tracking below 2016 numbers.
Despite increasing production, busier rig activity, and relatively higher oil prices, job recovery continues to be dampened by cautious investment and wide-scale efforts to improve profitability. The labour shortage is a result of fewer people being available to the oil and gas labour market. Overall, the industry's unemployment rate declined from 5.4% in the second quarter to 3.9% in the third quarter.
British Columbia has the tightest labour market with 100% of the available labour force working. Both Alberta and Saskatchewan are at 97%, followed by Atlantic Canada at 93%. The low unemployment rates suggest a tightening labour market that could prevent job growth and overall industry recovery. Companies will likely look to fill job vacancies with new entrants to the industry or recover workers laid off during the downturn who transitioned to other industries. Another potential solution is to tap into pools of unemployed workers from other regions.
PetroLMI releases industry specific quarterly reports that detail the latest Labour Force Survey numbers from Statistics Canada. The Q3 Oil and Gas Employment and Labour Market Data report is a quick two page summary of the information.

If you want to get a start growing fruit in your garden you'll need to provide the plants with the right conditions. Some plants and trees can be quite fussy, requiring certain types of soil, a sunny position or plenty of room to 'breathe'.
Fruit trees come as bare root plants or in a container. If you are planting them in the ground ensure the soil has good drainage, so the trees don't get waterlogged, and dig in plenty of rich, organic matter to provide nutrients to make them grow strong and healthy.
If you only have a small space, don't worry. Many fruit trees can be grown in small areas, but you will need to prune them regularly to ensure they stay small and compact and produce high yields. If you're training them along a trellis it's best to start doing this when they're young. Cut them down to knee-level to keep the growth canopy low. This will keep your fruit at an attainable height and make it easier to prune in the long term.
Raspberries and blackberries are deep rooting and so need a well-cultivated free-draining soil. They prefer full sunlight but will tolerate partial shade. Make sure all weed roots are removed and incorporate plenty of rich, organic matter into the soil.
Choose healthy looking canes and plant in rows 1-1.5m apart. At the end of the first year's growth new canes will shoot up. Leave these to bulk out the line a little, but take care not to let it get out of control. Raspberries in particular, are very susceptible to mildew and rot.
Keep the canes well supported by stringing wire in between four wooden posts in a rectangle. This will help prevent the plants from wind damage.
Plant blueberries in ericaceous compost. They do well in pots due to their fussy soil requirements and should be watered with rain only. This is because they enjoy an acid soil and can't absorb iron from soil, which contains too much lime. Plant them in a sheltered site in full sun or partial shade.
Keep unripe strawberry fruits off the ground to prevent them from rotting and snip the runners before they start to grow so the plants will concentrate their energy on growing the fruit.
Taking care to ensure your fruit trees, bushes and plants get off to a good start will see them cropping each year, proving you with masses of tasty home-grown fruit.
Last year my strawberries and blueberries had lots of fruit, this year none,what happened?


Le Pacte arranges events every day during the winter season, from 2015 to 2018 in Åre, Sälen and Vemdalen for Telenor. At each resort, the event base consists of a staffed, premium lodge with hot beverages, crafts and stickers, customer service, and phone charging. In connection to the lodges the world's (perhaps) largest, and award-winning!, ski-in ski-out photo booth, with both print-outs and digital photos.
During event days, the mobile event staff team engages visitors in activities such as golf, kubb and bandy. They also hand out warm beverages and give aways.
Telenor also offers visitors free wifi and charging stations at slope side cabins at each resort.


Around 30 climate change protestors were set to abandon their two-day demonstration on the roof of parliament as light faded on the protest's second day.
Six police vans and two police cars were waiting in the precincts of the Palace of Westminster as one activist dismantled a large banner which had been draped over the roof of Westminster Hall.
Environmental group Greenpeace said 55 activists had initially used ladders to scale the Palace of Westminster's walls yesterday afternoon. Twenty-four had come down during the night and were arrested and bailed to return, but 31 remained.
The demonstrators were located away from the main section of the Palace where the Commons and Lords are located. They occupied the roof immediately adjacent to the northern end of Westminster Hall, close to the statue of Oliver Cromwell visible from Parliament Square.
This morning police at the scene told politics.co.uk the protest was not expected to be ended this morning, but said it was "well-contained". "They're not going anywhere," one said.
The demonstrators remained defiant, waving bright green flags on day two of their protest. They are calling for a new style of politics which is capable of meeting the challenge of climate change, 60 days before the crucial summit in Copenhagen begins.
The protest came as the climate change committee published its first annual report to parliament. It called for a "step change" in the pace of emissions reduction.
"I feel nervous and I feel a little bit scared, but I feel proud to be doing something I believe in," one activist said in a video recorded before the demonstration began.
The demonstrators received support from an unlikely quarter as Alan Simpson, special adviser to climate change secretary Ed Miliband, declared his backing for the protest.
"I do hope that the activists are using their visit to the House of Commons to provide proper reconnaissance of the opportunities to install solar panels on the roofs of parliament," he said.
"I have been on the roofs myself and can confidently say that there is a vast amount of space to jam-pack more than enough panels to meet parliament's energy needs in [a] responsible, renewable way."
Not all agreed. Green Monitor, a new campaign group which wants a higher level of scrutiny into the debate on green issues, attacked the Greenpeace demo as a "cheap publicity stunt".
"Today's protests are basically an advertising exercise for Greenpeace, a multi-million pound lobbying operation," director Shane Frith said.
"Unfortunately, they will do nothing to protect the environment or help the world's poor."

Roundup, May 13th
Let's start May's 'Notes from the US' with some good news about the environment.
In the middle of last month, a federal judge in Alaska ruled that Trump's executive order of 2017 to open up nearly 130 million acres of the Atlantic Ocean to drilling for fossil fuels was unlawful. This ruling was in response to an appeal after the Biden administration revoked the ruling shortly after taking office.
In the same week, legislation was introduced to prevent any new leases for oil, gas, coal, or tar sands on federal lands from being issued. The Keep It in the Ground Act (2021) was widely welcomed by environmental activists.
On the other hand, the Journal of Applied Ecology published a study in the middle of last month showing how herbicides in common use across the US contain undisclosed 'inert' ingredients that are lethal to bumblebees, which – most of us know – are vital to the survival of the Earth and its ecosystems. The disastrous effects of glyphosate are notorious; but apparently, they are not the only highly toxic chemicals wrecking our planet in this way.
And good news about victimisation:
In mid-April the top criminal court in Texas overturned the death sentence of the state's longest-serving death row prisoner, 70-year-old Raymond Riles; he is an African American who was sentenced to die for murdering a Houston used car salesman in 1974.
Two good moves in Washington state: governor Jay Inslee signed legislation there last month to phase out for-profit prisons and immigration jails. Under House Bill 1090, companies that contract with local, state and federal agencies to make money from incarceration and detention will not now be allowed to renew their contracts. So one of the largest privately-run immigration jails, the GEO Group's Northwest Detention Center in Tacoma, will have to close by 2025.
Then there is some good economic news from Washington state. On a Sunday at the end of April lawmakers there approved a 7% rise in capital gains tax specifically to fund public education. The sale of stocks, bonds, or other capital assets where more than US$250,000 (£180,000) profit is made will now attract that tax; the resulting funds will go to the Education Legacy Trust Account. Anything over US$500 (£360) million will be directed to the Common School Construction Account.
Not so encouraging (though hardly surprising) is the finding of the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute that global military spending grew to almost US$2 trillion (nearly £50 million every second around the clock) in 2020 despite the pandemic. Spending by the US, of course, was the highest and accounted for almost 40% of that and was over 4% higher than it had been in 2019.
A government study published at the end of April showed that patients in the US pay double (at times four times as much as) the amounts charged for prescription drugs in other rich countries. The Government Accountability Office (GAO) took retail prices which consumers and insurers paid for 20 brand name prescription drugs in 2020 in the United States. They were 2.82 times higher than in Canada, 4.25 times higher than in Australia, and 4.36 times higher than in France. Biden has announced a 'social safety-net plan', though, which excludes proposals from progressives to tackle exorbitant drug costs.
Financial news site Finbold released a report last month that looked at the distribution of wealth in the US over the last three months of 2020. The richest individuals owned nearly 70% of all wealth… property, money in the bank, and stocks etc.
But worse: almost 50% of those assets belong to the 'top' 1% – a combined almost US$39 (£28) trillion. Further, the 'top' 9% possess almost US$47 (£34) trillion. No wonder that the poorest 50% of workers now earning a wage can only claim to own US$2.49 (£1.8) trillion – just 2% of estimated US household wealth.
Few, if any, anarchists ever expect real change to come from elections and the election process (in the United States). American 'democracy' is largely a sham. But there are occasions when those in power wish to prevent or reduce any slim chances of change that might exist. For them being able to vote might just prevent things from getting worse than they (already) are. Just such voter suppression is taking place across the US this year. One of the leaders in this rush to suppress largely the black vote is Florida. Last week Florida governor and Trump addict Ron DeSantis stopped local media outlets from covering his signing of S.B. 90. This new law which makes voting by mail (something which millions of voters in Florida have done for years) illegal. The only propaganda organ which was allowed to watch was the egregious bastion of selfishness, lies, racist, anti-science nonsense, Fox 'News', which was given exclusive access to the deed.
Freedom has often cited the highly-respected Costs of War Project. Based at Brown University's Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs and Boston University's Frederick S. Pardee Center for the Study of the Longer-Range Future, the Unit is a team of 50 scholars, legal experts, human rights practitioners and physicians. It began work in 2010 and publishes research to promote debate about the costs of the US wars waged on Iraq and Afghanistan – and the related violence in Pakistan and Syria – since 9/11. As Biden announced the US withdrawal from the longest war which it has ever waged, the Costs of War Project estimated that nearly a quarter of a million (241,000) people have died as a direct result of the war; and that the United States has spent US$2.26 trillion (almost £900 each and every second) since October 2001 on the destruction of, and death in those countries.
Republican elected Federal lawmaker, congressperson Marjorie Taylor Greene continues to make a name for herself and for her racist views. Indeed, her campaign has announced that she had raised US$3.2 million (over £25,000 a day) in the first three months in office.
Last month she launched a new White Supremacist caucus under the 'America First' banner. One wonders who would come 'second' – or 'third', or 'last' in such a world, and why. She is bringing together a group of far right lawmakers to advance what a flier promoting the group calls a '…common respect for uniquely Anglo-Saxon political traditions…". It re-iterates a by now sickeningly well-known parade of lies and conspiracy theories that the election in 2020 was stolen – presumably by the black and latinx electorates which (Republican lawmakers in) most states in the US are now seeking to disenfranchise by introducing voter suppression legislation.
Her (group's) 'nativist' warning is that 'mass immigration' poses a threat to 'the long-term existential future of America as a unique country with a unique culture and a unique identity'.
This is nicely in line with Fox 'News' host Tucker Carlson's (now that outlet's most-watched and most influential spokesperson) comments the previous week to the effect that there should be no room for non-Whites in America; indeed, Carlson and the Fox fascist propagandists have it that the Democratic Party is "…trying to replace the current electorate… with voters from the Third World". It is that same Carlson (he who called Iraqi's "pigs") who at the end of April specifically and unequivocally encouraged his viewers to confront those wearing masks in public and call on law enforcement for help if those challenged refused to remove their masks.
There has been fierce opposition to Taylor Greene's initiative.
Last month the Senate passed a bill to try and reduce hate crimes against Asian-Americans. These have increased dramatically as Trump and the fascist propaganda outlets have insisted on emphasising the presumed origins of the SARS-CoV-2 virus at the end of 2019 – rather than joining the rest of the country to advocate a more mature and effective response to dealing with the pandemic. The measure aims to create a position in the Justice Department specifically to tackle such crimes. Missouri Senator Josh Hawley, a Trump addict who helped to promote and incite the Putsch on the Capitol on 6 January seems to be in favour of hate, though: his was the single vote against the bill.

Rumors have been swirling around Hollywood for the past few months that Wendy Williams, 54, would be divorcing her husband Kevin Hunter, 46, who allegedly recently fathered a child with side chick, Sharina Hudson. But did the addiction problems lead to her divorce? Hunter serves as Williams' manager and is also a producer on her show.
Williams and Hunter have been married for over 20 years after tying the knot in 1997, and they share a 19-year-old son.
Her attorney, Mary Vidas, says the papers were filed in Essex County, New Jersey, where the talk show diva has a home. Insiders tell the site that Wendy chose to file after he told her about his actions weeks ago. She opened up to fans back in March that she had been staying in a sober living facility to help get ahead of her addiction problems. At first, she told fans she was recovering from a fractured shoulder and suffering from Graves' disease.
Things in Williams' life have not been easy this year. "Wendy and her family have been a part of Debmar-Mercury for over 10 years".
Reports of the divorce come amid infidelity rumours although Williams did deny the reports on her show earlier this year and assured people that her wedding ring would always be on her finger.
"We wish her the best", Sara Gilbert concluded. And putting her life back together includes getting rid of anybody toxic - specifically, her husband.
Williams wrote in her memoirs that Hunter cheated on her in the beginning of their marriage. It's unclear when the divorce will be finalized, but Williams' friends are reportedly rallying around her.


Who's jumping for joy (or for your favorite coffee) that it's Friday? I know I am!
Our first family trip, Camden's first flight, his first trip to the beach, and I'm sure many more firsts in the next week! We will be in the Sunshine State for 7 days, yipee! Truthfully, I can't wait to travel with our little man! But pray for us for the flight, would ya? that's really the only part I'm nervous about! I hope to blog a few times next week while we are there, but you can follow our trip via instagram or my snapchat!
Put the tomatoes in the blender first then throw in everything else and blend! Don't blend too long if you like your salsa chunky-all it takes is a couple seconds! YUMMY!!
I made Camden these baby banana oatmeal bites! They are perfect for breakfast and are freezer friendly. You just need a few ingredients and pop them into a mini muffin pan - easy peasy, which I need more of in my life! ;) He lovesss them!
and just because it's funny...that face, ha!
I just got these these amazing sunglasses in the mail that are a dupe for these $600 Dior ones! I will say the Dior pair is obviously gorgeous but for a pair that looks THAT similar and coming in at a whopping $13, I'll take the knockoffs! I love the silver on silver look, and that if I lose them (because seriously? WHERE are all my sunglasses?!) I won't be too upset about it!
PS: We finished the detox I mentioned last week! About halfway thru I ended up promising Billy we could do 7 days, instead of 10, if he stuck with it with me and we did that! Woohoo! He was getting sick of the protein powder taste after 5 days (and so was I at times-after that many smoothies you could still taste the protein powder over the fruits we used), and we were definitely craving more food by that point so I'm glad we just did the 7!
And don't forget to cheer for Ohio State!
I hope your little family enjoy your time away, and I can't wait to hear more about your vacation! I am sure Camden will do great on the flight and I wish I was joining I need a beach vacay!
OBSESSED with SnapChat! What is your username so I can follow you? KatieKrysh, i'm assuming, but I dont want to go following some creeper wanna-be! Hehe.
Hope you have a blast on your trip. I love catching up on snapchat. I am sure Camden will learn to be an expert flyer.
I on day 5 of that detox and I agree.. the protein taste is getting pretty bad. I promised myself if I can make it until next Friday I will be able to go out for chips & gauc w/ the girls on Saturday!
I have a 9 month old so those baby banana oatmeal bites look perfect for him! Thanks for sharing!


Exeter Property Group, a real estate investment management firm focused on logistic & industrial properties and portfolios across North America and Europe, has completed the sale and leaseback of a 9,315 sq m facility in Bialezyce from Inalfa Roof Systems. CBRE provided the buyer with advisory services during the transaction process.
Inalfa Roof Systems is one of the world's largest providers of vehicle roof systems. Inalfa designs, develops and manufactures sunroofs and open roof systems for the major OEM's in the automotive industry. The company is headquartered in Venray, the Netherlands, and has a global footprint.
The Polish facility comprises of 9,315 sq m industrial space and was opened in 2014 in Bialezyce village, near Wrzesnia town in Wielkopolskie Voivodship in west-central Poland, approx. 50 km from Poznan. The asset is currently being extended to provide an additional 2,800 sq m GLA expected by Q2 2017. The strategic location in Wrzesnia with easy access to the A2 motorway is one of its main advantages. The distance from Wrzesnia to Warsaw is almost the same as from Wrzesnia to Berlin (approx. 300 km).
This deal is consistent with our company policy of constructing diversified, high-performing portfolios to deliver superior real estate solutions and risk-adjusted returns. Due to its excellent location and an attractive company profile, the Inalfa Roof Systems facility will be another attractive alternative asset in the Exeter portfolio. We also like the fact that part of the deal includes development of extensions of the Inalfa facility in two phases. This will allow our investors to achieve a higher rate of return.
We are proud that we could represent Exeter Property Group in this transaction. This deal confirms that triple net long leases to reputable tenants remain one of the most sought after and highly coveted products in the CEE Investment market where shorter leases are more common. This fact holds true across all sectors and a wide range of asset types. We are looking forward to working with Exeter Property Group again in the future.


It's the simple things that make me grateful for Saturday mornings. Bon app y'all.
Photo cred to Leinana at Vegan Good Things. I love the way you capture dat toast.
Just avocado? Is that also pepper? It looks awesome. I love avocado.

Ennui has become exhaustion in playwright Cordelia Lynn's new version of "Three Sisters." The word recurs and recurs. Everyone on the Prozorov estate is worn out; too "overworked" to do anything but sit around idle. Are they killing time or is time killing them?
Either way, a play often framed as a study of boredom — three city creatures cut off in a remote country pile, pining for Moscow and its metropolitan buzz — becomes a portrait of a population becalmed at London's Almeida Theatre. Rebecca Frecknall's spare staging seems to be holding its breath, but beneath its still surface, there's an edge of panic or even despair holding everyone back. The future feels ominous. Things can only get worse. Needless to say, it resonates in Brexit Britain today.
Lynn prises the play out of its specific context — the lull that preceded the upheaval of World War One and the Russian Revolution — but this isn't a modernization, per se. Russian names remain intact, technology's not invoked and yet it is, nonetheless, an update of sorts. Chekhov's characters could be our contemporaries: the Prozorov sisters, modern-day millennials. Ria Zmitrowicz's babyish Irina openly acknowledges her anxiety, while Pearl Chanda's Masha bristles at her education going to waste for want of opportunity. Both long for love and settle for second best. Patsy Ferran's Olga, meanwhile, puts her ambitions on hold to hold things together, as their brother Andrey (Freddie Meredith) sits idly on a ledge above the stage, visibly depressed. The world they were promised has never come.

If "Three Sisters" is a play about people on pause, Lynn's adaptation tunes into its timescales. There's a musicality to Frecknall's staging, a constant awareness of its tempo and rhythms. Time is the rising young director's signature.
In "Summer and Smoke," which won an Olivier Award last week, Frecknall set a community's quotidian concerns against the enormity of eternity. As metronomes ticked, one death broke the present apart and stopped all the clocks: a gunshot segued, softly, into a soaring swansong. It was an "Our Town" moment: life seen, in full, from afar.
"Three Sisters" returns to the same terrain with greater variety and subtlety, circling the distance between objective and subjective time, between the way it moves and the way it feels. Punctuated by moments of suspension — the spinning top, most famously, but also chimneys that whistle like solar wind and pocket watches that gently chime the hour. Overhead, flocking geese fly by — a sign that, even in stasis, the seasons keep shifting. Some seconds stretch out, others rush by in a burst of activity. A camera catches moments as snapshots that are beamed onto the back wall: still lives.
Frecknall's skill is to ensure every character sits in a time zone of their own. From the start — "a year since father died" — the three daughters occupy very different spaces: one's buoyant, one's downbeat, the other's reflective. It goes for everyone: Peter McDonald's poetic optimism as Vershinin pings off the Latin aphorisms Elliot Levey trots out as Masha's husband, Fyodor. While Lois Chimimba bustles broodily around as Natasha, Alan Williams (as Chebutykin) slumps, sizzled and self-loathing, in a chair. "Ta-ra-ra-boom-ti-yay," he sings, "I drank my life away." Somebody snoozes, someone else stands on tenterhooks.
Each character is entirely fully-fleshed, the center of their own story, taking their own time and only coming together at moments of communal significance: a funeral, for instance, or a nearby fire. Frecknall doesn't so much direct Chekhov's play as conduct it. The result sits in that sweet spot: a Chekhov for our times.

Harrison brings daytime and evening appeal to new Radisson restaurant
The four star Radisson Blu Hotel in Marseille has been given the five star treatment by Harrison, with the recent opening of the newly-designed in-house restaurant, Le Quai du 7ème.
Our fresh, earthy scheme expands the daytime and evening appeal of this port-side culinary venue, creating vibrancy with a palette of coastal colours inspired by the breath-taking local geography of Les Calanques – the narrow, steep-walled inlets found along the Mediterranean coast.
Stand-out features include an internally-illuminated amber artwork outlining the silhouette of the Les Calanques coastline, as well as a timber raft made from reclaimed wooden planks, hinting of boats shipwrecked at sea.
Clever lighting design is used to create an atmosphere to suit the time of the day, physically zoning areas and giving each an independent identity. Sparkling glass lights at the windows increase outside visibility and draw in passers-by.
Structural changes include the relocation of the bar to the lounge area to create a mealtime buzz, while numerous large circular pillars have been used to the restaurant's advantage, defining the restaurant and bar areas and balancing the design symmetrically.
The overall result is a rich, welcoming and hugely comfortable space for hotel guests and locals to enjoy. The magnificent views over the adjacent Vieux Port and a few sips of a local vintage serve as the perfect complement to an outstanding redesign which is as popular after sunrise as it is after sunset.

Trump Faces Divergent Views on Russia
Michael Averko
During his contentious press conference of last week, US President Donald Trump at one point noted that Russian President Vladimir Putin, might very well contend that his American counterpart faces too many obstacles to pursue improved relations with the Kremlin. CNN's chief foreign policy wonk Fareed Zakaria, mischievously wonders why Trump has continued to be "soft" on Russia unlike other countries? Along with some others, Zakaria suggests that the US president is somehow conflicted with unknown ties to Russia. Zakaria et al do not address their biases against Russia, which are considerable.
Trump is not the only American who has not bashed Russia in the preferred establishment manner. Are any or all of these non-conformist Americans (Pat Buchanan and Stephen Cohen included) somehow compromised by the Kremlin? The sentiment for Russia includes agreement with the North-South clash of civilizations impression of the world, that sees Russia as a prospective US ally. In addition, there are folks not beholden to that North-South belief, while opposing the faulty actions and comments against Russia.
At the just completed Munich Security Conference (MSC), the US government made clear its preference for seeing all NATO member countries financially contribute to that military alliance in accordance to the stated specifications. As evident in a February 18 Eric Shaun hosted Fox News segment, the anti-Russian slant believes (at least a segment of it) that a better funded/stronger NATO, will more likely compel Russia to do «the right thing» (as in being more agreeable with Western neolibs and neocons).
There are some other aspects concerning NATO. As noted in Sputnik and Bloomberg pieces, a recent WIN-Gallup poll finds four NATO countries (Bulgaria, Turkey, Greece and Slovenia) preferring Russia as a power defending them. (With that in mind, it is understandable why the Russian government has indicated support for an initial Trump-Putin meeting in Slovenia – the birthplace of Trump's wife.) Some other NATO nations (like France, Germany and Hungary) have noticeable elements, which second guess the negative neocon and neolib view towards Russia.
At the end of the Cold War, NATO kind of reinvented itself by pursuing activity outside Europe, that isn't necessarily directed against Russia. Simultaneously, there remains a Cold War byproduct of anti-Russian influence within that military alliance. At play, is an ongoing divergence, involving the underrepresented pro-Russian/anti-Communist observers and anti-Russian/anti-Soviet advocates. (There are others in the mix, who don't neatly fit into either of these two categories.)
At the 2017 MSC, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, pointedly noted the past history of US-Russian cooperation, in conjunction with the hope to get away from the confrontational Cold War mindset. With regret, he said that a prevailing anti-Russian lean has thwarted the effort to improve US-Russian relations.
The February 15 Fox News Sean Hannity-Sebastian Gorka exchange, prompted yours truly to forward the below correspondence to Gorka, who is currently serving as a deputy assistant to Trump. I have had some limited prior exchanges with him. So, it's not like he doesn't receive my comments. Gorka has not (at least so far) replied to the following:
«Hello Dr. Gorka,
President Trump has expressed the desire for improved US-Russian relations – something that the Kremlin seeks.
With that preference in mind, it's especially inappropriate to flippantly use the term 'Russian aggression', regarding the former Ukrainian SSR and some other matters. Feel free to pass this correspondence to Sean Hannity.
If anything, Crimea has a better case for its reunification with Russia than the separation of Kosovo from Serbia and the ongoing Turkish presence in northern Cyprus.
Humanitarian intervention was applied in Crimea, as evidenced by the virtually bloodless territorial change undertaken there, in accordance with the well over 2/3 pro-Russian majority in that area. As quoted in RFE/RL, the Crimean Tatar activist Mustafa Dzhemilev, is on record for supporting the ethnic cleansing of Russians from Crimea. In contrast, Russian president Vladimir Putin, has condemned the Soviet WW II era collective internment of the Crimean Tatars, while supporting a multi-cultural/multi-lingual Crimea.
I personally know people of Russian, Ukrainian, Jewish (and any combo of the aforementioned three), backgrounds with ties to the rebel held Donbas area. They state the otherwise obvious concerning the Kiev regime's wanton destruction of civilian life. Rather interestingly, the Kiev regime's Nadiya Savchenko has acknowledged this aspect, despite her strident anti-Russian slant.
The overwhelming majority of the Donbas rebels are from the territory of the former Ukrainian SSR. Russian support for the rebels takes into consideration what some Kiev regime sources have openly advocated. Specifically, their support for an Operation Storm like attack – referencing the 1995 ethnic cleansing of Krajina Serbs.
With that in mind, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson should acknowledge that the Kiev regime should live up to the Minsk agreement that it signed onto.
What follows is a thorough debunking of Joe Scarborough's recent WaPo piece.
Michael Averko».
As a follow-up, many if not most conflicts, are far more nuanced than the heavy bad guy versus virtual innocent. US mass media and body politic have a selective sensitivity factor when assessing some disputes abroad.
The term «Russian aggression» is akin to the 1990s utilized «Serb aggression». As applied relative to other situations over the past fifty or so years, these terms come across as being culturally biased, if not bigoted. In US mass media and body politic, «Turkish aggression», «Israeli aggression» and "US aggression" are not used. Russians and Serbs have limited lobbying clout in the West. As a European looking group, disparaging things can be said of them that would otherwise get more scorn when directed against some others.
The PC selective sensitivity brings to mind MSNBC and CNN repeatedly highlighting how Trump seemed like he might not have been aware that the abbreviated CBC (as brought up by a journalist in his last press conference) was referring to the Congressional Black Caucus. No one seems to second guess that he knew about that organization (by its full name) beforehand. CBC is also the abbreviated shorthand for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, which has been around longer than the Congressional Black Caucasus. In news reports spanning many years, I do not (offhand) ever recall the latter organization being mentioned by the abbreviated CBC.
Meantime, CNN and MSNBC have been quite mum on California Congresswoman Maxine Waters' gaffe in her saying that Russia invaded Korea. Ditto when the now former US President Barack Obama, erroneously said (on more than once occasion) that Putin was the former head of the KGB.
What attracted voters to Trump is the idea of challenging questionable establishment takes. My advocacy is is line with that spirit.

Accountancy firms have 15 pre-packed administrators ready to go
It has been revealed that the U.K.'s largest accountancy firms have 15 so-called pre-packed administrators ready to go as concerns about the UK high street continue to rise. It is forecast that up to 15 retail giants will go bust in New Year as consumer spending continues to fall and consumer confidence remains critically low. This is the clearest sign yet that all is not well on the UK Street and while no names have been mentioned as yet many rumours are circulating within the city.
Many UK retailers have also decided to remain open 24 hours a day in the run up to Christmas in the hope that they can catch some pre-Christmas spirit from UK consumers looking for bargains. Whether this will be enough to haul many of them out of their deep financial problems remains to be seen with concerns that some have fallen too far. Consumers who have money to spend are likely to see some very interesting bargains over the next few days with prices set to plummet as desperation sets in amongst UK retailers.
This has the potential to be the worst Christmas retail season for decades and could literally change the landscape of the UK high street forever.

Want to Compete on Top Chef? Here's the Season 17 Finalists' Best Advice for Future Contestants
Melissa King, Bryan Voltaggio, and Stephanie Cmar share how future chefs can be successful in the competition.

The Judges Cook a Meal for the Top 3 Chefs
Season 17 of Bravo's Top Chef served up some of the fiercest competition we've ever seen on the show. If you sat at home watching this all-star season of the culinary competition and thought that you too would like a shot at the title of Top Chef, there are some things you should know first.
When The Daily Dish caught up with Melissa King, Stephanie Cmar, and Bryan Voltaggio, Season 17's final three cheftestants, prior to the June 18 finale, we asked each of the finalists for their best advice for future Top Chef competitors. Find out the secret to these All Stars' success, below.
Melissa King
"For future contestants, I would say [believing] in yourself, is the number one thing. I know there are many times I second guessed myself on my first season [Season 12]. Even throughout the competition, you hear it from everyone around you. Everyone's second guessing and like, 'Oh no, I shouldn't have done that.' But I think believing in yourself is the most important thing. If you have that and that confidence and that foundation, then anything you create moving forward you'll be proud of. I think that's the one thing that carried me through this season... Don't be afraid to take risks. You know, don't be afraid to challenge yourself and think outside the box. And just go for it."
Stephanie Cmar
"The whole thing about Top Chef is you're taking one of the most public risks that you possibly can. So remember why you're there, which is because you're a great cook. And do that. And worry about everything else a little bit later. But go in with 100 percent confidence and don't doubt yourself, because there's a reason why you're there. It is an incredible adventure, and just take advantage of it."
Bryan Voltaggio
"Pick me for their sous chef so I can come back [laughs]... Go in and cook your food. Cook your own food and don't get caught up in the challenge... Don't look left and right; just look down on your own plate and make the best food you can because that's all that matters. That way, you can come home — whether you go home or not — feeling good about what you've done. I feel really great about my time on Top Chef all three times I've competed. I never left anything on the table, like I put everything out there that I could. I sometimes [was on] the brink of going too far and trying to accomplish too much in the time constraints. But I was never going to not do enough, and I felt like I always did that. So I feel like any contestant that's going out there, you never try to ride the middle. Go in there, put your best food forward and try to win."

The Eagles are an American rock band that was formed in Los Angeles, California, during the early 1970s. With five number one singles and six number one albums, the Eagles were one of the most successful recording acts of the decade. They are also the best-selling American group in history.
At the end of the twentieth century, two of their albums, Eagles: Their Greatest Hits 1971–1975 and Hotel California, ranked among the ten best-selling albums of all time according to the Recording Industry Association of America. Their studio album, Hotel California, is rated as thirty-seventh on the Rolling Stone list "500 Greatest Albums of All Time."
The Eagles broke up in 1980, but reunited in 1994 for Hell Freezes Over, a mix of live and new studio tracks. They have toured intermittently since then, and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998.

3.5 History of the Eagles
In 2007, the Eagles released Long Road out of Eden, their first full studio album in 28 years. In 2013, they began the extended History of the Eagles Tour in conjunction with the band's documentary release, History of the Eagles. The tour concluded in the summer of 2015. They were chosen for the 2015 Kennedy Center Honors to be held on December 6 of that year, but postponed their appearance due to Glenn Frey's poor health. Frey died a month later in January 2016.
The seeds for the Eagles were planted when Linda Ronstadt's then-manager John Boylan recruited session musicians Glenn Frey, Bernie Leadon, and Randy Meisner to back Ronstadt. They were missing a drummer until Frey telephoned Don Henley, whom he had met at the Troubadour club in Los Angeles. The group auditioned for Ronstadt, and the band backed her on a two-month tour and on her 1970 album, Silk Purse. After their tenure with Ronstadt, and with her encouragement, they decided to form their own band, signing with Asylum Records, the new label started by David Geffen. Geffen and partner Elliot Roberts also initially managed the band. The group chose the name Eagles as a nod to The Byrds. Leadon had been in Dillard & Clark with former Byrds singer Gene Clark and in The Flying Burrito Brothers with former Byrds Gram Parsons, Chris Hillman, and Michael Clarke.
History, by album
The Eagles' self-titled debut album was quickly recorded and released in June 1972. Eagles was filled with natural, sometimes innocent country rock, and yielded three Top 40 singles. The first single and lead track, "Take It Easy," was a song written with Frey's help by his neighbor and fellow country-folk rocker Jackson Browne. Frey heard Browne recording the song, contributed two lines to it (for which he got co-writing credit), and asked if the Eagles could use it. The song reached number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100 and propelled the Eagles to stardom. The single was followed by the bluesy "Witchy Woman" and the soft country rock ballad, "Peaceful Easy Feeling," charting at number nine and number 22 respectively. The Eagles soon became a major force in popularizing the Southern California country rock sound around the nation. Rolling Stone magazine's 2003 list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time" ranked Eagles at number 374.
Their second album, Desperado, with its Old West outlaw theme, drew comparisons between outlaw lifestyles and those of modern rock stars. It was during the recording sessions that Don Henley and Glenn Frey began collaborating as songwriters, co-writing eight of the album's 11 songs, including "Tequila Sunrise" and "Desperado." The bluegrass-oriented songs "Twenty-One" and "Doolin' Dalton," and the ballad "Saturday Night" showcased guitarist Bernie Leadon's abilities on the banjo, fingerpicked guitar, and mandolin. The album was less successful than the first, reaching number 41 on the U.S. pop album charts. Its two singles, "Tequila Sunrise," and "Outlaw Man," reached number 61 and number 59 on the pop charts, respectively. However, "Desperado" would become a concert favorite, which has been much covered.
For their next album, On the Border, Henley and Frey wanted the band to break away from its country style and move more toward hard rock. The the band turned to Bill Szymczyk to produce the most of the album, and Szymczyk brought in Don Felder to add slide guitar to some sessions. He appeared on only two songs on the album, but the band was so impressed with him that they invited Felder to become the fifth Eagle. The album yielded a number one single with "Best of My Love," which hit the top of the charts on March 1, 1975, becoming the Eagles' first of five chart toppers.
One of These Nights (Leadon leaves)
Their next album, One of These Nights, had an aggressive, sinewy rock stance. The album further displayed the growing strength of the Henley/Frey songwriting team, particularly on the title track and the Grammy Award winning "Lyin' Eyes." "One of These Nights" hit number one on the Billboard chart on August 2, 1975. The song itself has often been cited by Frey as his all-time favorite Eagles' tune.
By this time, however, relations among the members of the band had become strained. Between the release of One of These Nights and the subsequent tour, Bernie Leadon left the group, disillusioned with the direction the band's music was taking and his own diminished role after Felder was hired. Leadon was dating Patti Davis, Ronald Reagan's daughter which also created political tensions within the group. Leadon left the band in December 1975, famously announcing his resignation by pouring a beer over Frey's head. The group quickly replaced Leadon with veteran singer and guitarist Joe Walsh.
Meanwhile, in early 1976, Their Greatest Hits (1971–1975) was released. It went on to become the best-selling album in U.S. history, selling over 29 million copies in the United States to date.
Hotel California (Meisner leaves)
The group's next album, Hotel California, came out in December 1976. "New Kid in Town" was a number one hit in February 1977, and the title track hit number one in May. Told during a 60 Minutes interview in 2007 about the meaning of surrealistic "Hotel California," Don Henley replied, "It's a song about the dark underbelly of the American Dream, and about excess in America." "Life in the Fast Lane" was also a major success, establishing Joe Walsh's position in the band with its more hard rock sound. The album concluded with "The Last Resort," a song Frey refers to as Don Henley's greatest work.
Hotel California has appeared on several lists of the best albums of all time. It is the Eagles' best-selling studio album, with over 16 million copies sold to date in the United States.
After the tour, Randy Meisner left the band and moved back to his native Nebraska, where he began a solo career. The band replaced Meisner with the man who had succeeded him in Poco, Timothy B. Schmit.
The Long Run (break-up)
In 1977, the Eagles began to produce their next studio album, The Long Run. The album took two years to make, but yielded the group's fifth and last number one single, "Heartache Tonight" (November 10, 1979).
On July 31, 1980, in Long Beach, California, hard feelings among the band, tempers flaired, especially between Frey and Felder, and boiled over publicly on stage. The band appeared ready to split up, but it still owed Warner Bros. a live record from the tour. Eagles Live (released in November 1980) was mixed by Frey and Henley on opposite coasts. With credits that listed no fewer than five attorneys, the album's liner notes simply said, "Thank you and goodnight."
The Eagles onstage
Fourteen years after the breakup, a country tribute album titled Common Thread: The Songs of the Eagles was released in 1993, featuring country artists singing Eagles' songs. The following year, after years of public speculation, the band finally formally reunited. The lineup comprised the five Long Run-era members—Frey, Henley, Walsh, Felder, and Schmit—supplemented by additional musicians: Scott Crago (drums), John Corey (keyboards, guitar, backing vocals), Timothy Drury (keyboards, guitar, backing vocals), and Al Garth (sax, violin) on stage. "For the record, we never broke up, we just took a 14-year vacation," announced Frey at their first live performance in April 1994.
The ensuing tour spawned a live album titled Hell Freezes Over, named for Henley's recurring statement that the group would get back together "when Hell freezes over." The album debuted at number one on the Billboard album char, and included four new studio songs, with "Get Over It" and "Love Will Keep Us Alive" both becoming top-40 hits. The album itself proved as successful as the reunion tour, selling 6 million copies in the United States alone. The tour was interrupted in September 1994, due to Frey's recurrence of diverticulitis, but it resumed in 1995 and continued into 1996.
In 1998, the Eagles were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. During the induction ceremony, Frey, Henley, Felder, Walsh, and Schmit performed together, and former members Bernie Leadon and Randy Meisner rejoined the band for the performance for "Take It Easy" and "Hotel California." Several subsequent reunion tours followed (without Leadon or Meisner), notable for their record-setting ticket prices.

The Eagles performed a Millennium Eve's concert at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on December 31, 1999, marking the last time Don Felder played with the band. The concert was released on CD as part of the four-disc Selected Works: 1972-1999 box set in November 2000.
The group resumed touring once more in 2001 with a lineup consisting of Frey, Henley, Walsh, and Schmit, along with Steuart Smith, who unofficially replaced Don Felder. Other musicians included Michael Thompson (keyboards, trombone), Will Hollis (keyboards, backing vocals), Scott Crago (drums, percussion), Bill Armstrong (Horns), Al Garth (sax, violin), Christian Mostert (sax), and Greg Smith (sax, percussion).
In 2003, the Eagles released a new greatest hits album The Very Best of the Eagles. The two-disc compilation was the first that encompassed their entire career, from Eagles to The Long Run. The album also included a new single, the September 11-themed Hole in the World. The album debuted at number three on the Billboard charts and eventually gained triple platinum status.
On June 14, 2005, the Eagles released a new two-DVD set titled Farewell 1 Tour-Live from Melbourne featuring two new songs: Glenn Frey's "No More Cloudy Days" and Joe Walsh's "One Day at a Time." A special edition 2006 release exclusive to Wal-Mart and affiliated stores also included a bonus audio CD with three new songs: A studio version of "No More Cloudy Days" plus "Fast Company" and "Do Something."
Long Road out of Eden
On October 30, 2007, the Eagles released Long Road out of Eden, their first album of all-new material since 1979. The album debuted at number one in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Netherlands, and Norway. The Eagles made their awards show debut on November 7, 2007, when they performed "How Long" live at the Country Music Association Awards.
On March 20, 2008, the Eagles launched their world tour in support of Long Road out of Eden at The O2 Arena in London, England.
History of the Eagles
In February 2013, the Eagles released a career-spanning documentary called History of the Eagles and began the supporting tour with 11 US arena dates from July 6 to 25. Original Eagles guitarist Bernie Leadon also appeared on the tour. The tour expanded internationally and continued until July 29, 2015.
The Eagles are the highest-selling American band in U.S. history
The Eagles were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998 and into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2001. On December 7, 1999, the Recording Industry of America honored the group with the Best Selling Album of the Century for Their Greatest Hits (1971–1975).
The group ranked number 34 on CMT's 40 Greatest Men of Country Music in 2003. They were one of only four acts who were either a duo or a group on the list, the others being Alabama at number 11, Flatt & Scruggs at number 24, and Brooks & Dunn at number 25. On May 16, 2008, the Eagles were featured on the front cover of the Rolling Stone Magazine.
The Eagles have won six Grammy awards:
(1975) Best Pop Vocal Performance by a Duo, Group or Chorus: "Lyin' Eyes"
(1977) Record of the Year: "Hotel California" (single)
(1977) Best Arrangement for Voices: "New Kid in Town"
(1979) Best Rock Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group: "Heartache Tonight"
(2008) Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals: ""How Long"
(2009) Best Pop Instrumental Performance: "I Dreamed There Was No War"
The Eagles, along with three other bands, were included in the popular 2008 video game, Guitar Hero World Tour.
The group was chosen for the 2015 Kennedy Center Honors to be held on December 6 of that year, but postponed the award for a year because of Glenn Frey's poor health. Frey died a month later.

Death of a law enforcement officer has community repercussions. Denial of spouse survivor benefits - including life insurance, agency, state, and federal benefits compounds the tragedy and trauma and is an injustice!
This death is now 10 years old and reached its final resolution - all in favor of the surviving spouse.
(As with all expert consultations - this was a joint consultation by the agency principals)
This case took over a decade for the law firm to litigate multiple beneficiary providers, appeals, and WIN EVERY claim for the widow!!
>> See the letter sent to our agency in conclusion <<
Suspicious Death - Independent Investigation (Expert Consultation) - Updated 06/10/2013, 08/12/2017 and 10/02/2020
Our agency was retained by a private investigator on behalf of the decedent's family. The decedent, a law enforcement officer, was found by officers of an overlapping jurisdiction. The official investigation was conducted by the decedent's employing agency, who had jurisdiction. Extensive photographs, records and reports were provided for review, including multiple re-enactment videos and photographs from experts retained by the law enforcement agency and family.
Review of the provided photographs, records and reports provided several concerns, beginning with the perfect and symmetrical position in which the decedent was found (supine) with his shotgun. The decedent had one injury, which was immediately fatal, as a result of a contact penetrating shotgun slug wound entering under the chin and traversing to exit the top of the head. There were multiple discernible wounds unanswered by the conclusion of suicide. Specifically, in the act of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, there is no plausible explanation for the injuries and pressure patterns to the respective dorsal and palmar surfaces of both hands. Moreover, the decedent's uniform had indications of being involved in a physical altercation and on the ground prior to death.
Personal effects and items from his utility belt were strewn about the decedent, almost circular and at varying distances. His duty weapon was found several yards from him, over a chain-link fence topped with barbed wire. His backup weapon, on an ankle, was removed.
Investigation determined that the shotgun was not in a final resting position consistent with having been discharged by the decedent, in any conceivable position of the decedent, and then coming to rest as found. The angle of the entrance wound, and wound path, are inconsistent with the decedent lying on the ground and his head also resting on the ground, and particularly without any consequential projectile defect to the underlying pavement.
The possibility that the decedent staged his own death as a suicide as a homicide was considered. However, the physical evidence did not support this in even the most minimal possibility.
The expert reconstruction, conducted by a former employee of the investigating agency, only concentrated on the final resting position of the decedent. This was deficient and inconclusive based upon the physical evidence. Factors that were not considered in the whole included the position of the decedent at discharge, angle of the shotgun at discharge, and angle of the decedent's head at discharge. Each possibility presented in this reconstruction was unfounded upon further study and evaluation.
It was determined that the official investigation was insufficient in the investigation of the manner of death. It was further concluded that the scene, specifically placement of the shotgun on the decedent, was staged. It is also concluded that the decedent was standing, or less likely kneeling or crouching, with the muzzle of the shotgun pressed against the underside of his chin, the shotgun being held by another unknown person, and discharged by the unknown person. The finding of suicide by self-inflicted extraoral gunshot wound is inconsistent and not plausible based upon the documented information, facts and evidence reviewed. Investigation reveals that this incident presents concern of homicide concurrent with a mutual physical confrontation.
This agency recommended that the Cause of Death remains extraoral contact gunshot wound. The Manner of Death be amended to Homicide.
UPDATE 11/08/2012 and 11/15/2012 - this case has been published by investigative reporter, now private investigator, Paul Rubin:
Sean Drenth was police officer with Phoenix AZ police department. He was found with a single fatal shotgun wound under his chin. It was ruled a suicide after a long wait for the family, and an investigation that did not answer many questions - and added more.
AFI-LLC is one of many resources working this case. We are hoping there is justice and closure for the family. It is a story worth reading (Part 1) - http://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/2012-11-08/news/the-curious-case-of-sergeant-sean-drenth
If you read Part 1 of the death of Sean Drenth, a Phoenix police officer found dead under suspicious circumstances, here is Part 2 - http://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/2012-11-15/news/who-was-phoenix-police-sergeant-sean-drenth
UPDATE 06/10/2013 - in the months following the above newspaper stories, the medical examiner's officer continued to refuse further review and the case was submitted to the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The FBI concurred with the ruling of suicide, based on a psychological profile. Recently the matter was presented by the widow's attorney before the Phoenix Retirement Program, which held off hearing the appeal for nine months. Jackie Temple, the city's interim Retirement Program administrator, said the report was persuasive to members of the board. "They presented pretty strong evidence as to why they saw that it could not be suicide,". The decision by the board was unanimous, with one abstaining vote. Here is the recent story, http://azc.cc/A1kis
His death remains closed, as suicide, by the Phoenix Police Department.
UPDATE 08/12/2017 - in May of 2015 our agency was informed an insurance company was litigating this case to deny life insurance policy claims. As a result, this case study was removed pending litigation. Under subpoena, our expert files were turned over to opposing counsel, as required under Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. From May 2015 to August 2017, our agency received no further communication. On 08/12/2017 we were notified by our attorney-client, representing Sgt. Drenth's widow, of closure in the form of law enforcement widow's pension from the City of Phoenix, collection of all life insurance policies, and having Sgt. Drenth's name added to the Phoenix Police Department Fallen Officers Memorial Wall - without any further litigation.
UPDATE 09/01/2020 - the summer of 2019 we were asked to provide an updated report specific for an appeal to the Department of Justice Public Safety Officer Benefits Board. In conjunction with other team investigators and experts, our report was included with the appeal. This resulted in the award of full widow survivor benefits on 08/30/2020.
AFI-LLC is proud to have been part of this important investigation for the family - to the living we owe respect, to the dead we owe the truth. We feel this standard has been met. Our agency played a small role, and we recognize the primary investigator, family attorney, and other forensic experts that provided a team effort to reach this outcome for the family. A special thanks to the attorney and primary investigator - Joel Robbins and Jon Colvin, CLI
Department of Justice - Public Safety Officer Benefits Appeal Finding Report 08/31/2020 (received 09/04/2020)
Claimant retained a licensed and board certified legal investigator to respond to the forensic consultant's report. In his Medicolegal Death Investigator's Review and Findings, dated May 7, 2019, Dean Beers asserted the following:
In his findings as to the question of suicide, the forensic consultant reported there were no injuries to indicate the decedent was incapacitated prior to being shot at contact range. However, other evidence shows unusual ante- and post-mortem / shotgun discharge activity. As to the position of the shotgun, the forensic consultant reported it is not uncommon to find the suicide weapon in this position if the victim is in a seated or semi-reclined position. However, the shotgun was found in a near perfectly aligned position and four inches from the contact entrance wound below the chin. This position might be found if there was no recoil and/or braced and recovered recoil. As noted by Mr. Haag, a scene photograph of the butt of the shotgun shows it to be clean and lacking any evidence of having been against the ground (dirty, weathered asphalt) prior to, during, or subsequent to discharge. This is evidence the shotgun was not braced or supported. In his testing of the shotgun, Mr. Haag further reported recoil distances ranging from 5 to 9-inches transpired in each test . . .
Dean Beers, a board certified legal investigator, was retained by Claimant to provide an opinion concerning the manner of death of Sergeant Drenth. After reviewing the medical examiner's report, autopsy and scene photos and the reconstruction packet of Criminalist Lucien Haag, among other things, Mr. Beers opined that the finding of suicide by self-inflicted gunshot wound was "inconsistent and not plausible based upon the documented information, facts and evidence reviewed." Mr. Beers' opinion was based in part on the following:
The decedent's uniform had indications of being on the ground, other than consequential to his death as a result of the fatal discharge. This is supported by: scuff marks of the handheld radio holster, dirt bi-laterally on the knees . . . bi-lateral abrasions to the dorsal aspects of the hands, bi-lateral pattern impressions and gravel on the palmar surfaces of the hands, and scuff marks on the toes of both boots.
Personal effects, including handcuffs, flashlight, cell phone and back-up weapon were strewn about the decedent, almost circular and at varying distances. His duty weapon was found several yards from him, over a chain link fence topped with barbed wire.
The final resting position of the shotgun, with the muzzle proximate to the collar of the undershirt and the barrel along the midline (buttons) of the torso are only consistent with a) no recoil; or b) being placed in that position post-discharge.
Mr. Beers ultimately concluded that the scene, specifically placement of the shotgun on the decedent, was staged and that Sergeant Drenth was standing, kneeling or crouching when the shotgun was discharged by an unknown person.
Claimant also procured the services of former Phoenix Police Department homicide detective, Jim Raines, and private investigator Jonathan Colvin to assess the manner of Sergeant Drenth's death. Mr. Raines and Mr. Colvin performed extensive firearms testing to reconstruct the scene of Sergeant Drenth's death and determine the angle of the shotgun as well as the trajectory of the projectile and the relative wad at the time of the fatal shot. Based on their testing, they concluded that Sergeant Drenth was standing at the time that he was shot because (1) the wad's placement at the scene indicates that it "had to go up in the air and then come back down to shorten its linear travel distance."
Private Investigator Colvin, specifically concluded that
If Sergeant Drenth had been laying down, number one, as the bullet -- as the wad goes through him, number one, the wad being unimpeded laying down would have flown much further unless it hits something. If it hits a link in the chain link fence, if it hits some brush that's there, those are the only two things to impede this. Maybe some barbwire that was there. That's the only thing to impede a wad that's flying this way. And if you look at Luke Haag's report, you'll see that the wad flies over 90 feet if shot straight. That wad would be much further down in the parking lot.
Secondarily, if he had been laying down when he was shot, the slug would still be in the parking lot. It would be along the same lines but to the right, and there are cars parked all over there, they would have found this slug embedded in a car. There's also a 3-foot wall on the north end of the parking lot. That slug would not leave that area if it had hit the ground. They searched the entire parking lot and never found the bullet. So therefore the bullet left the premises. He had to be standing up when he was shot.
In a report dated April 4, 2019, Private Investigator Jonathan Colvin also highlighted the placement of Sergeant Drenth's teeth as evidence that he was not lying down when shot on October 18, 2010. Per Mr. Colvin, Phoenix Police Department Report DR Number 2010 01489312 noted evidence that they found at the scene of Sergeant Drenth's death, including "teeth with apparent blood on it; found in the pool of apparent blood, under the victim." According to Mr. Colvin's report, this finding was also depicted in one of the photos taken by Phoenix Police Department investigators. Based on this evidence, Mr. Colvin posited the following:
If Sgt. Drenth were lying down when shot it is physically not possible for the jawbone with teeth attached to be ejected – whether through the top of the skull or through the gaping exit wound in Sgt. Drenth's right sinus-and yet end up underneath the victim's shoulder. Moreover, the violent recoil of the shotgun would not permit the gun to remain on his chest.
Mr. Raines and Mr. Colvin determined that Sergeant Drenth was standing when he was fatally injured, because of the distance traveled by the wad, the estimated distance traveled by the slug, and the placement of the teeth under Sergeant Drenth's body, among other things. Their supposition supports the expert opinions of Michelle Hoffman and Dean Beers and the opinion that Sergeant Drenth's death could not have been the result of suicide. Specifically, if Sergeant Drenth was standing when he was shot, his body would have collapsed vertically and the shotgun would have recoiled. As such, his body would not have naturally fallen into the position that it was found (i.e. legs straight, arms bent and hands resting on the torso) and the shotgun would not have been found resting on his chest. Based on these findings, Claimant's experts posit that Sergeant Drenth could not have shot himself.

This article describes Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) and how you can use them to increase SharePoint Online performance.
A user profile is the collection of user properties—and the policies and settings associated with each of those properties—that describe a single user. User profiles are important, because they help people find content that connects them with other people, learn more about each other; and collaborate using social features.
The default SharePoint groups are created automatically when you create a site collection. The default groups use SharePoint's default permission levels – sometimes called SharePoint roles – to grant users rights and access. The permission levels that these groups have represent common levels of access that users have to have. They are a good place to start when you add users to a SharePoint site.
SharePoint Online user profiles include a default set of user properties that are supplied by the Office 365 directory service. Use the SharePoint admin center to add and edit user profile properties and define profile policies to track key information that is not otherwise available.
Manage My Site settings for SharePoint Online My Site settings for SharePoint Online Administrators lets you update general settings like search scopes and languages options. My Site websites are personal sites that provide users in your organization with a rich set of social networking and document management features.
SharePoint Online in Office 365 is allocated a quantity of storage that's based on your number of users. The storage is available to all site collections in the tenant and serves as a central pool from which everyone can draw. You, the global admin, don't need to divvy up storage space or reallocate space based on usage.
Branding and customizing SharePoint Online is different than branding and customizing SharePoint Server products. SharePoint Online gets updated with new features on a regular basis and these updates can affect certain types of customizations.
Content types enable you to organize, manage, and handle content in a consistent way across your sites. By defining content types for specific kinds of documents or information products, you can ensure that each group of content is managed in a consistent way. This article explains basic concepts about content types, and how content type publishing can be used to share content types across site collections.
