Where are all these people headed? … Route 114 !
Qabeelat Tayybah begins 2009 by welcoming Shaykh Yasir Qadhi back for Uloom al Qur'an. Standing at the intersection of 'Tayybah Boulevard' and 'Yasir Qadhi Place', the shaykh begins speaking about one of the most eman rush filled topics ever: the Quran. Surrounded by décor of roadway signs, with a row of huffadh in the front, we learn about and experience again the greatest miracle known to mankind.
And proceeds to sing the rest of the nasheed while everyone listens in silence.
May Allah bless the two Qabaa'il and increase them in their love for each other.

About the Chester County Bar Foundation
In 1985, a group of highly committed Chester County attorneys recognized a growing gap between the legal system and the citizens it serves. In an effort to re-connect the community with our laws, those lawyers came together to form the Chester County Bar Foundation.
The Foundation's goal, then and now, is to fund initiatives which strengthen the ties between the residents of Chester County and the justice system.
In the new millennium, the Foundation's Board of Directors adopted a new mission, which highlights the role of the Foundation in reaching out to the public in many expanded ways. That mission — to help Chester County citizens understand, gain access to and benefit from our legal system — simply clarifies what has always been the role of the Bar Foundation.
With its focused mission, the Foundation took a giant leap forward in its efforts to raise funds through the Foundation Golf Classic and Art Auction. With the advent of these fundraising events, the Foundation doubled its endowment and increased funding for programs. Programs supported by the Foundation include: Legal Aid of Southeastern Pennsylvania, Law Related Education for Youth program, Elder Law Education programs, Charles E. Swope Scholarship and Matching Grant program, Domestic Violence Center of Chester County and the Crime Victims' Center of Chester County.
Over its history, the Foundation has become a force within the community by helping people of all ages and backgrounds understand the legal process and their rights as citizens of Chester County.
Programs Supported by the Chester County Bar Foundation

Access to Justice Program
Many hard working Chester County residents earn too much to qualify for a free Legal Aid lawyer, yet cannot afford the high cost of hiring a private attorney. The members of the Chester County Bar Foundation and the Chester County Bar Association recognize this challenge and offer a solution with the Access to Justice program. This program provides free legal services to the working poor in Chester County and is the only program of its kind throughout the state of Pennsylvania.
Law Related Education
Since 1988, the Foundation has funded a program where Chester County attorneys donate their time to go into both elementary and secondary classrooms to teach students about the law. Over the past 25+ years, over 45,000 students have been educated in various areas of law in grades 2 through 12.
People's Law School
Adults frequently find themselves in situations where some knowledge of their rights under the law is essential. The Bar Foundation has historically funded the People's Law School, which educates adults on different areas of the law including wills and estates, business law, family law and real estate law.
The Charles E. Swope and Hon. charles b. smith Scholarships
The Foundation scholarships were established to provide financial assistance for post-high school education in law or law related fields. Scholarship applicants must demonstrate academic excellence, outstanding community citizenship and/or financial need.
As part of the annual scholarship award, recipients are given the opportunity to help choose a charity to which the Foundation will award a grant that matches the scholarship amount.

Charcoal fire starters—flammable tiles, cubes, or nuggets—are advertised as waterproof alternatives to the newspaper used for lighting charcoal briquettes in a chimney starter. To see how well they worked, we bought five fire starters (made from materials like wax, wood chips, volcanic rock, and paper), priced from $0.13 to $1.25 per unit, and used the lowest number of units recommended by the manufacturers (from one to three) to light chimneys filled with charcoal briquettes. Then we grilled zucchini and flank steak over the coals and tasted each food for off-flavors.
All five starters did a good job of lighting the charcoal, taking about the same time as four sheets of newspaper to heat the charcoal for cooking, and they imparted no off-flavors to the food. To test how waterproof they were, we submerged the starters in water for 2 hours and then tried to light them; while none would light straight out of their bath, all ignited without much trouble after we blotted them dry with paper towels.
Differences were minor; some of the starters ignited more quickly than others, and some made slightly more of a mess in the bottom of the grill basin, but they all worked. Our take? If you don't keep newspaper around, any of the fire starters make fine substitutes. They may even be preferable if you grill in inclement weather. A bonus: You can use these starters to light a wood fire or, in a pinch, to light charcoal without a chimney (you'll need to move the charcoal around a bit to get it evenly lit).
Our favorite charcoal fire starters, the Weber Lighter Cubes ($0.14 per unit), took less than 10 seconds to light. Made entirely of paraffin wax, they were easy to clean up afterward and were the most water-resistant of the bunch.
We tested five fire starters, priced from $0.13 to $1.25 per unit, made from a range of materials—including wax, wood chips, volcanic rock, paper, and cardboard—and evaluated their performance in lighting fires when both dry and wet. The starters were purchased online and appear in order of preference.
EASE OF IGNITION: We placed the fewest number of units recommended by the manufacturer (from one to three) on the lower grate of a charcoal grill and positioned a charcoal chimney filled with briquettes over it. We lit each starter (or set of starters) with a match and timed how long it took the starters to fully ignite and the coals to be ready for cooking. Fire starters that ignited quickly—in less than 10 seconds—scored highly.
CLEAN FLAVORS: We grilled zucchini planks and flank steak over the coals ignited by each of the starters and had a panel of test cooks and editors taste each food. Our panel did not detect off-flavors from any of the starters, so no points were deducted.
CLEANUP: While grilling over charcoal is already a somewhat messy undertaking, we subtracted points for starters that contributed significantly to the cleanup process or produced higher amounts of wind-borne ash.
WATER RESISTANCE: No starter ignited directly out of a 2-hour soak in water, but all ignited after we quickly blotted them dry with paper towels. Some starters seemed to absorb more water and took slightly longer to dry and light, and thus were demoted slightly.


The cause for pimple is deposited waste materials more into intestines...This in turn leads to constipation... Small and Large Intestine should be kept clean to avoid pimples.
Treatment for pimples should not be treated externally. Should be treated internally for permanent cure.

Inguinal ligament
Origin: Lower 8 costae
Insertion: Crista iliaca, ligamentum inguinale
Nerve: Intercostal nerves T5, T6, T7, T8, T9, T10, T11,subcostal nerve (T12)
Action: Rotates torso
The Obliquus externus abdominis (External or descending oblique muscle), situated on the lateral and anterior parts of the abdomen, is the largest and the most superficial of the three flat muscles in this region. It is broad, thin, and irregularly quadrilateral, its muscular portion occupying the side, its aponeurosis the anterior wall of the abdomen. It arises, by eight fleshy digitations, from the external surfaces and inferior borders of the lower eight ribs; these digitations are arranged in an oblique line which runs downward and backward, the upper ones being attached close to the cartilages of the corresponding ribs, the lowest to the apex of the cartilage of the last rib, the intermediate ones to the ribs at some distance from their cartilages. The five superior serrations increase in size from above downward, and are received between corresponding processes of the Serratus anterior; the three lower ones diminish in size from above downward and receive between them corresponding processes from the Latissimus dorsi. From these attachments the fleshy fibers proceed in various directions. Those from the lowest ribs pass nearly vertically downward, and are inserted into the anterior half of the outer lip of the iliac crest; the middle and upper fibers, directed downward and forward, end in an aponeurosis, opposite a line drawn from the prominence of the ninth costal cartilage to the anterior superior iliac spine.
The aponeurosis of the Obliquus externus abdominis is a thin but strong membranous structure, the fibers of which are directed downward and medialward. It is joined with that of the opposite muscle along the middle line, and covers the whole of the front of the abdomen; above, it is covered by and gives origin to the lower fibers of the Pectoralis major; below, its fibers are closely aggregated together, and extend obliquely across from the anterior superior iliac spine to the public tubercle and the pectineal line. In the middle line, it interlaces with the aponeurosis of the opposite muscle, forming the linea alba,which extends from the xiphoid process to the symphysis pubis.
That portion of the aponeurosis which extends between the anterior superior iliac spine and the pubic tubercle is a thick band, folded inward, and continuous below with the fascia lata; it is called the inguinal ligament. The portion which is reflected from the inguinal ligament at the pubic tubercle is attached to the pectineal line and is called the lacunar ligament. From the point of attachment of the latter to the pectineal line, a few fibers pass upward and medialward, behind the medial crus of the subcutaneous inguinal ring, to the linea alba; they diverge as they ascend, and form a thin triangular fibrous band which is called the reflected inguinal ligament.
In the aponeurosis of the Obliquus externus, immediately above the crest of the pubis, is a triangular opening, the subcutaneous inguinal ring, formed by a separation of the fibers of the aponeurosis in this situation.
The following structures require further description, viz., the subcutaneous inguinal ring, the intercrural fibers and fascia, and the inguinal, lacunar, and reflected inguinal ligaments.
Variations.—The Obliquus externus may show decrease or doubling of its attachments to the ribs; addition slips from lumbar aponeurosis; doubling between lower ribs and ilium or inguinal ligament. Rarely tendinous inscriptions occur.

201 housing associations have pledged to tackle homelessness by signing the Commitment to Refer, an initiative launched by the National Housing Federation in October 2018.
Following the introduction of the Homelessness Reduction Act in October 2018, many housing associations expressed a strong desire to support the Act and work together with local authorities to tackle causes of homelessness in their community.
The challenges in delivering the homes that we want and need are complex. Our homes impact our wellbeing at every level. We are currently inviting submissions to present from those leading lights that put people at the heart of all that they do, in the design, build and delivery of homes in the UK. The philosophy behind the programme is 'while it may be difficult we shouldn't settle for less'. We are all well-versed in the problems so the forum will be refreshingly solutions-based.
The vibrant, interactive forum will equip you with the latest best practice in the design, build and delivery of homes that meet the needs of every demographic. It will bring together the stakeholders responsible for delivering the most innovative projects and create the perfect environment for you to network, develop valuable business connections, and explore solutions for the many design, construction and funding challenges that UK housing is facing.
Birmingham City Council has become the first local authority to join a scheme run by Secured by Design (SBD), the national police crime prevention initiative, to build-in crime prevention techniques into all its new social housing developments to help keep residents safe.
SBD's UK-wide National Building Approval (NBA) scheme provides organisations and private building companies with an easy and cheap route to ensure their standard house and apartment building types achieve the security requirements contained in the building regulations.
SBD does this by taking on the tasks of checking those property types, and the companies in the supply chain, to ensure that products, such as windows and doors, meet SBD standards and are security compliant, thereby removing a significant administrative burden.
A national trade association has called for a more consistent approach to acoustics to protect society from the impact of excess noise, while Isover has created an acoustic CPD module for builders and specifiers.
The move comes as a new White Paper, 'Building Our Future; Laying The Foundations For Healthy Homes and Buildings,' reveals that almost 40 per cent of the UK population is subjected to noise pollution, with a knock-on effect on public health.
Regulations were laid in Parliament last week which will give legal effect to the combustible materials ban announced in the summer. The ban means combustible materials will not be permitted on the external walls of new buildings over 18 metres containing flats, as well as new hospitals, residential care premises, dormitories in boarding schools and student accommodation over 18 metres.

Prosecutors seek restrictions on Rittenhouse
Young children spread COVID-19 much less than others, study finds
by: Mandy Murphey and Nexstar Media Wire
Posted: Jul 20, 2020 / 10:26 AM CDT / Updated: Jul 19, 2020 / 05:06 PM CDT
ST. LOUIS (KTVI) — Infectious disease doctors in Missouri say new studies show a lower coronavirus transmission rate among children.
"It does seem that children are at lower risk of spreading the virus to others," said Dr. Andrew Janowski, with St. Louis Children's Hospital. "So that could be reassuring when we're talking about returning to school."
The New York Times reported that according to a new study from South Korea, children under the age of 10 pass the virus to others much less often than adults do. However, those ages 10 to 19 can transmit COVID-19 at least as well as adults.
Doctors in Missouri say they are seeing three groups of children and teens with COVID-19.
One group has the same symptoms as adults. They experience fever and cough.
A second group doesn't have those symptoms but, instead, has one or all of the following: nausea, diarrhea, rash, loss of taste and smell and bluing toes.
"Up to 50% of children will not have a fever or have a cough," said Janowski. "So it makes it difficult when children aren't presenting in this way."
The third group has no symptoms at all. Though doctors say they know there is a significant portion of children and teens without symptoms, they are still trying to determine the best way to test and identify them.
The hard part for parents is that all of the COVID-19 symptoms could apply to other viruses and the common cold.
"Basically, any illness that a child may have could be consistent with COVID-19," Janowski said. "So, this is a constant battle that a lot of families are having, just trying to sort out, "Should I get my child tested.'"
Doctors say new studies show some asymptomatic children have such a mild version of the virus that they don't infect anyone else in the household. They say if your child has been exposed to someone with COVID-19, call your pediatrician to get help determining whether they should be tested.

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — U.S. pharmaceutical company Pfizer confirmed Friday it will temporarily reduce deliveries to Europe of its COVID-19 vaccine while it upgrades production capacity to 2 billion doses per year.
"This temporary reduction will affect all European countries," a spokeswoman for Pfizer Denmark said in a statement to The Associated Press.
KENOSHA, Wis. (WLAX/WEUX) - Prosecutors in Wisconsin have asked a judge to order an Illinois teen charged with killing two people and wounding a third in a violent protest in Kenosha last summer to stay out of bars and away from white supremacist groups.
The request comes a week after 18-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse was seen drinking at a bar in the southeastern Wisconsin city of mount pleasant after he pleaded not guilty to criminal charges on Jan. 5.

Diesel Sweeties eBook-Stravaganza 3000
Help me collect twelve years of webcomics into a complete ebook form while still keeping the files free to all.
Richard Stevens
1,520 backers pledged $60,209 to help bring this project to life.
Project We Love Easthampton, MA Webcomics
One Last Goal! If we hit $50,000, I'm going to make a mini comic chock full of original art by some incredible webcomics all-stars. See update #19.
Hot dang! We hit $35,000, so I'm adding monthly DRM-free collections of my daily strips for a year and driving 3,000 miles to hand-deliver Pac-Man arcade game to Wil Wheaton. Crazy? See update #9.
Did you see the design of the Red Robot thumb drive that the physical copies of the ebook will be shipping on? See update #4.
Update: Due to exceeding the base goal, I'm adding an extra DRM-free book release and publishing the thumb drive copies of the book on custom Red Robot-shaped USB drives. See update #3.
Puny Fleshling! Identify yourself!
My name is Richard Stevens III AKA "rstevens" and I've been drawing my pixelated webcomic Diesel Sweeties since early 2000. I'm about to hit 3,000 comics and would like your help compiling them into a humongous annotated ebook which I can release in a way that respects you, the reader.
Based on recent experiments, I think DS is overdue for this kind of collection. My recent experiment re-releasing my first book as a free ebook led to over 140,000 downloads in the past month. My experiment at collecting a month's worth of comics in magazine format for the iPad racked up over 10,000 downloads in three days. I have no idea how many times the raw, unedited PDFs I provide of older comics have been downloaded. (It's been a while!)
The time is right to do this, but I think it's also important to do it right as both an artist and as a citizen of the inter webs.
So, what's the plan?
When I hit my minimum goal, I will: Get all 3,000 comics into a comprehensive ebook form and release it free and without DRM in both iBooks and PDF format. I'm budgeting for minor art edits, lettering clean-up, book design and the time to index everything so you can search for characters and dialogue. I'm also budgeting to pick up an Android tablet to make sure this is not too Apple-centric.
(By "minor edits" I do not mean that Han will shoot first. I'll just clean them up, not ruin your internet childhood.)
If I exceed that goal, I will add more elaborate features to the book, including: Remastered and separated storylines, commentary, theme and character reading modes, pixel art guides and commentary. I believe that with a few months to concentrate, I could wind up with about 4,000-6,000 pages of material. There are at least a dozen different "books within books" that I could pull out of this archive and make readable in a more sequential format. I'd also need to add the original titles to the art files of about 1,000 strips.
I feel that there are loads of different ways to read Diesel Sweeties and that much of the continuity is in my head or just below the surface of the gag comics. I'd really enjoy the opportunity to sift through over a decade of me life and give you back a whole new way of reading these strips.
On format and copyright:
I've always regretted that the sheer number of comics and formats I've worked in have made me unable to collect everything in book form— and let's be honest, pixel art looks best on a backlit RGB screen the way it was drawn and designed to be read.
The reason I'm asking you to support the production of this collection is that it's going to be an enormous task and I need to take time away from other work to do a good job. It's also very important to me that this ebook collection be done in the spirit of the original work: Free to read, free of geographical restriction and accessible to as many people as possible.
I care about credit and copyright, and love the idea of selling ebooks, but as long as I am able to work on Diesel Sweeties, I would like payment to be optional. That's the model which has supported me as my main job since 2003, through boom and recession. That's the model this comic was designed for and where it's going to stay.
Those of you who support this project will have free download as well as physical thumb drive options available. You'll also be ensuring I can afford to make a really thorough ebook and both sell it and offer it as a free download.
I hope you'll also store this collection and share it with your friends. Remix it for devices that don't exist, buy a decommissioned missile silo and Apocalypse-proof it, print it out and ask me to sign a twenty-pound stack of paper when you see me at a convention. Once you get a copy, it's yours. The only copy protection I need is the fact that tomorrow's comic doesn't exist yet and my brain's the only place that bakes that cookie. I only ask that you respect the Creative Commons license and do not use them commercially without permission.
Three thousand comics is a lot of comics. Twelve years is a long time. The daily deadline treadmill is like being a mail carrier sometimes ... as long as the clock ticks, you never really get ahead. I love that, but I'd really enjoy a chance to look back and collect over a third of my life into a more permanent form.

We added all the important features that didn't make it into the first release of Rebex ZIP: AES encryption, stream-based access to compressed files, asynchronous methods, and more. Check out the list below for details. On top of that, a new explorer-like sample was added.
When using Rebex FTP on a machine where only certified FIPS 140-2 algorithms are allowed, a FIPS 140-2 mode is enabled and non-compliant algorithms are switched off. This mode can also be enabled manually by referencing Rebex.Security.dll and setting the Rebex.Security.Cryptography.CryptoHelper.UseFipsAlgorithmsOnly property to true. This was already available in Rebex SFTP before.
While there is nothing wrong with PutFile and GetFile methods, sometimes a stream-based access is required. We now added a new GetStream method that returns a stream representing a remote file - and all the stream features are supported, including seeking and setting file length. This makes it possible to (for example) use Rebex SFTP with Rebex ZIP to access a remote ZIP file and extract selected files from it without having to download the whole ZIP file.
FTP/SSL: Added FIPS 140-2 compliant mode that is automatically enabled on systems where only compliant algorithms are allowed.
FTP: Ftp class inherits from NetworkSession base class that implements some common properties.
FTP: Added a workaround for FTP servers with broken MLST output.
FTP: SITE command is no longer used to detect MS IIS FTP 7.x because it caused problems to some firewalls.
FTP: FtpList.GetEnumerator is now an implementation of IEnumerable .
FTP: Better error handling in GetFiles/PutFiles methods.
SFTP: Added Sftp.GetStream method that makes it possible to open a readable/writable/seekable stream of a remote file.
SFTP: Added ProtocolVersion property to Sftp class.
SFTP: Sftp class inherits from NetworkSession base class that implements some common properties.
SFTP: SftpItemCollection.GetEnumerator is now an implementation of IEnumerable .
SFTP: Fixed a DateTime range check in SftpAttributes.Modified and .Created which was performed before the conversion to UTC.
SFTP: Better error handling in GetFiles/PutFiles methods.
S/MIME: Added support for AES ecnryption (128, 192 and 256bit).
MIME: A more descriptive exception is thrown when attempting to save a mail message into a directory path instead of file path.
MIME: Changed routine for fixing invalid filenames, it no longer changes the '%' character.
MIME: Added a MimeOptions.DisableSinglePartHtmlWorkaround option to disable single-part HTML workaround in MailMessage.
MIME: Attachment, view and resource collections' GetEnumerator is now an implementation of IEnumerable .
IMAP: ImapMessageCollection implements IEnumerable .
IMAP: Imap class inherits from NetworkSession base class that implements some common properties.
SMTP: Smtp class inherits from NetworkSession base class that implements some common properties.
POP3: Pop3 class inherits from NetworkSession base class that implements some common properties.
POP3: Added a workaround for an old version of Lotus Domino that advertises APOP support but don't actually support it.
POP3: Pop3MessageCollection implements IEnumerable .
SSH Shell: Ssh class inherits from NetworkSession base class that implements some common properties.
Terminal: Added new SendToServer method overload to TerminalControl and VirtualTerminal that makes it possible to easily simulate function keys.
Terminal: New BreakSeqeuence option added to TerminalOptions.
SSH Core: In FIPS-only mode, a CryptoAPI implementation of AES is used if available.
SSH Core: Added support for aes *-ctr and 3des-ctr ciphers.
SSH Core: SshSession class inherits from NetworkSession base class that implements some common properties.
ZIP: Added a new overload for Extract, Add and Delete methods that accepts a list of files.
ZIP: Added ZipItem.Open() method that makes it possible to open a readable stream of a compressed file.
ZIP: Added a new Rebex.IO.Compression.Streams namespace with low-level compression/decompression classes (Deflate, Enhanced Deflate, ZLIB).
ZIP: Better error handling in AddFiles/ExtractFiles/ExtractAll methods.
ZIP: Fixed a bug in handling the Retry action if an error occured while retrieving hierarchy.
ZIP: Added support for password-based encryption using 256bit, 192bit, 128bit AES and ZIP 2.0.
ZIP: Added ShrinkProgress event to make it possible to display shrink progress.
ZIP: Asynchronous methods added to ZipArchive class: AddAsync, ExtractAsync, MoveAsync, DeleteAsync, SaveAsync.
ZIP: Added support for persisting and restoring last access and creation dates.
ZIP: Added a DeleteUnfinishedFileOnExtractError option to specify whether to delete or keep a file on extract error.
Some of you already noticed Rebex DLLs in Visual Studio 2010's application folders. It's now official - we are proud to anounce that Microsoft is using Rebex FTP/SSL and SFTP in Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 and Microsoft Expression Web!
If you would like to be informed about what's going on at Rebex, you are welcome to follow us on Twitter.

Sikyong of Tibet launches Takna Jigme Sangpo's biography
The Tibet Post International

Next Article Rights group slams China for human rights violations in Tibet
Dharamshala: - The Central Tibetan Administration on Thursday, January 23, 2014 honoured 86-year-old Takna Jigme Sangpo, Tibet's longest-serving politcal prisoner, describing as the "shining example of Tibetan freedom fighter."
"Personally, having read about the sacrifices made by him with unwavering determination in the Tibetan freedom struggle, I applaud his contribution to the just cause of Tibet. He is a shining example of Tibetan freedom fighter. Through him, I pay my respect to all the former political prisoners and those who are suffering under the Chinese occupation of Tibet," Sikyong Dr. Lobsang Sangay told Tibetan civil servants on 23 Jauary during a gathering in Dharamshala.
The political leader of the Tibet, Dr Lobsang Sangay Friday launched new book- biography of Takna Jigme Sangpo, written by Ven. Thubten Yarphel and Lachap Jimpa, members of Gu-Chu-Sum movement of Tibet, an NGO of former Tibetan political prisoners based in Dharamshala.
"I feel honoured to launch the biography of Takna Jigme Sangpo. Since my time as an activist during my college years in Delhi, I have heard of Takna Jigme Sangpo's incarceration in Drapchi Prison and drawn inspiration from his heroic activism," Dr Sangay said at the book release function.
"Even from within the prison, Takna Jigme Sangpo has undertaken various political activities. One significant protest was during the visit of Swiss human rights officials to Drapchi in 1992, when Takna Jigme Sangpo raised slogans of Tibetan freedom, before he was subdued by Chinese officials," Sikyong said.
"Takna Jigme Sangpo, the longest serving Tibetan political prisoner, is an enduring example of Tibetan freedom fighter. Through him, I pay my respect to all the former political prisoners and those suffering under the Chinese occupation of Tibet," Sikyong Dr. Lobsang Sangay said.
Sikyong Dr Lobsang Sangay also recommended that this book be translated to English and other languages as well, to make Takna Jigme's sacrifices more relevant to the younger generations.
Takna Jigme Sangpo, in his address, spoke about three reasons for releasing his biography. He noted that one of the most significant reasons was His Holiness the Dalai Lama's speech on the 28th anniversary of Tibetan uprising day.
"In that speech, His Holiness has urged older generation of Tibetans to put their experiences in writing. If you don't record the sacrifices and sufferings, there is a chance that your sacrifices might gradually fade into oblivion," Takna Jigme Sangpo recalled His Holiness as saying in that speech.
He also noted former Kalon Tripa Prof. Samdhong Rinpoche and Kalon Dongchung Ngodup for their encouragement to release his biography.
"A project in which we have proposed for writing 23 biographies of former political prisoners and today's biography is the 21st of them. We have exceptional role models like Takna Jigme Sangpo who served his 32-years of horrendous and heartrending imprisonment in distinct prisons with deprivation of civil and political rights and five years in arduous Reform through Labour camps," said Mr Pasang Tsering, President of Gu-Chu-Sum movement of Tibet.
Mr Tsering said that "the charge against him was; "spreading and inciting counter-revolutionary propaganda", which means a simple thing, demand of freedom and forthright expression of one's loyalty towards His Holiness the Dalai lama. He is enlisted as the longest serving political prisoner of Tibet and South-East Asia in addition to the title of third longest serving political prisoner of the world."
"He is a man who has seen the invasion, lived under the regime, and studied it closely; and accordingly chose to stand with heavy fist against it. He was drilled with unimaginable pain to break his spirit, his love for a free Tibet yet here he is; standing so strong, holding the same if not more passion for this nation," he added.
The book launch function also attended by Kalon Dongchung Ngodup of the Department of Security, Mr. Jamyang Soepa, member of Tibetan Parliament and members of the Tibetan media in exile.
Takna was released from prison in March 2002 after serving 20 years of a 28 year sentence. He had spent the majority of the previous 40 years in prison for political activities and peaceful protest. His sentence was extended after he shouted slogans calling for Tibetan freedom during a visit to his prison by a Swiss delegation in 1991. His release followed a long international campaign by Tibet organisations and human rights groups. Takna is now 86 and is currently living in Switzerland.

The Indy 500: Our guys at the Capitol
Susan Greene and Tina Griego

A kind of giddiness overcomes reporters in the last hours of a state legislative session. It's an end-is-near phenomenon, the same kind of anticipation and early-onset nostalgia that hits high school seniors in the springtime. Can't wait to get out of here, but, oh, we had some fun, didn't we? Which is why, when Alex Burness sent us a message late Thursday calling the basement press room at the Capitol "the little dungeon," he added that it is also "our home. And we love it."
The press room, for the record, is a hot, cubicled, poorly lit place in which Alex and fellow Indy reporter John Herrick have for the past four months shared a desk littered with paper and business cards and Advil and minty gum.
When we hired Johnny from the Vermont Digger a few years ago, his editor there raved that "he knows how to read a bill," which is no small thing (especially given that one of our sources at the Statehouse estimates that only about 20 percent of lawmakers read bills in their entirety, relying on their most studious counterparts to do so). Johnny can not only read a bill, but also decipher a fiscal note and dig into a budget. His attention to the fine print came through in his tracking of measures related to climate change and overcrowded prisons. It also has come through in his series of illuminating interviews with the folks Gov. Jared Polis has put on his cabinet.
If Johnny is the policy mind on our little team at the Capitol, Alex is the political mind.
Alex came to us last spring from the Boulder Daily Camera. He had never covered the state legislature, but we knew his gift for observing the ebb and flow of power would make him a natural. His analyses of how and why the bill to abolish the death penalty failed and of how Senate President Leroy Garcia chose to use his position explained important dynamics between lawmakers that other outlets missed. Alex is the kind of reporter who expects transparency from public officials. So when Polis failed to answer even softball questions at a news conference Friday, we saw and shared his frustration.
Our guys at the Capitol are two of the nicest people and most dogged reporters you'll ever meet. They're also good sports for working long hours, responding to our demanding edits with stronger stories, and every day wearing sports coats and ties, as is still the custom under the Gold Dome.
At their best over the past four months, Johnny and Alex were able to connect what happens in this building to the lives of people who don't walk its halls or mill in its lobbies. In doing so, both of them carried out the mission of The Independent: to amplify the voices of Coloradans whose stories go unheard, shine light on the relationships between people, power and policy, and hold public officials to account.
We love these guys and are grateful for their excellent work.

Monitoring Employee Communications: A Brave New World
June 7, 2016 | No Comments
By Karla Grossenbacher, Esq. of Seyfarth Shaw LLP
Over the last decade, communication via email and text has become a vital part of how many of us communicate in the workplace. In fact, most employees could not fathom the idea of performing their jobs without the use of email. For convenience, employees often use one device for both personal and work-related communications, whether that device is employee-owned or employer-provided. Some employees even combine their personal and work email accounts into one inbox (which sometimes results in work emails being accidentally sent from a personal account). This blurring of the lines between personal and work-related communications creates novel legal issues when it comes to determining whether an employer has the right to access and review all work-related communications made by its employees.
Employers have legitimate business reasons for monitoring employee communications. Take, for example, the scenario in which an employee leaves her employment, and the employer is concerned that she has taken proprietary information or solicited clients in violation of her duty of loyalty or a contractual agreement. Another common scenario that gives rise to the need for employers to review all of an employee's work-related emails is when the employer is in litigation that requires production of employee communications.
Most employers are comfortable with the notion that, with a properly worded policy that provides notice to employees of the ability and intent to monitor email, an employer can access emails on an email server provided by the employer. However, what about cases in which the employer does not provide the email service? With employees using web-based emails, like Gmail and Hotmail, and texts to communicate in the workplace, the relevant communications may be elsewhere. In these situations, what are an employer's rights to access and review such communications?
An employer's ability to review electronic communications is governed by the Electronic Communication Privacy Act (ECPA) and the Stored Communications Act (SCA). The ECPA prohibits the interception of electronic communications, and the term "interception" as used in the ECPA has been interpreted so narrowly that this title of the ECPA rarely comes into play in cases involving an employer's review of employee email or texts. The SCA makes it illegal to access without authorization a facility through which electronic communication service is provided and thereby obtain access to communications in electronic storage.
With regard to an employer's review of employee emails sent through web-based email accounts like Gmail or Hotmail, the most frequent scenario confronted by courts is one in which a former employer accesses the web-based email of a former employee, looking for evidence of malfeasance. In these cases, the former employer is typically able to access the former employee's web-based email account because the employee has saved her username and password on a device provided by the employer, which was returned at termination, or failed to delink an account from such a device. In these cases, courts have been reluctant to punish the former employee for failing to take appropriate steps to secure their own personal, and allegedly private, communications.
For example, a district court in New York considered an employee's claim that his former employer's review of emails in his Hotmail account after his termination violated the SCA because it was unauthorized. The defendant argued that its review of the emails did not violate the SCA because the employee had implicitly authorized its review of the emails on his Hotmail account because the employee had stored his username and password on the employer's computer system or forgot to remove such an account from an employer-provided phone before returning it.
The court rejected this argument, holding that it was tantamount to arguing that, if the employee had left his house keys on the reception desk at the office, he would have been implicitly authorizing his employer to enter his home without his knowledge. The court also noted that the employer's computer usage policy did not provide the necessary authorization because it only referred to communications sent over the employer's systems.
Likewise, a district court in Ohio confronted with similar facts, refused to hold the plaintiff responsible for his own failure to safeguard his information. In this case, the employee had turned in a company-issued blackberry upon termination without first deleting the Gmail account he had added to the phone. The former employer reviewed the emails in the former employee's Gmail account, and the former employee alleged that this violated the SCA. The former employer argued that the former employee had negligently or implicitly consented to their review of the emails in her Gmail account by returning the blackberry to the company without deleting the account. However, the court held that the employee's "negligence" in leaving the Gmail account on her phone when she turned it in was not tantamount to her authorizing the defendant to review the emails on her Gmail account.

I haven't been able to watch CNNHD #202 on guide for months as it has the 771 error message. Weather is not the problem. Beautiful sunny days it's the same. Please help!!
Re: CNNHD 202 on Guide.
What model DVR/Receivers do you have? Do they all have this problem?
99% of these problems are caused by dish misalignment. Please post back with your signal readings for each satellite's transponders (and both tuners if applicable). You'll find these readings under "Menu" -> "Setup" -> "System Setup" -> Satellite -> "View Signal Strength". Note the "+" and "-" symbols next to the "Satellite" and "Tuner" entries where you can toggle the readings between the various satellites and both DVR tuners.


What came first – the cupcake or the doughnut?
Cupcakes have had their day in the sun (and are still basking in the glow over at Crave, home of the best buttercream icing around) but it's time for doughnuts to take the spotlight. And the quest for the best series is your guide to discovering Saskatoon's many spots to partake.
Saskatoon's only specialty artisanal doughnut shop, Darkside Donuts had line-ups around the block when it opened last fall. It's popular for good reason: The doughnuts aren't your typical yeast-raised. A sourdough brioche base makes these babies chewy, substantial and packed full of flavour.
"It's very delicious and it's a good performer," said owner Bryn Rawlyk.
Customers kept asking for more, leading to Darkside's opening.
Managers Leeane Berger and Nikita Brown celebrate the ridiculous in weird and wacky flavours. Recent creations include a vanilla bean filled with a vanilla glaze and animal crumbs, plus a classic cinnamon knot roll. Vegan picks are in heavy rotation, too.

Thrive Has been selling their vegan, gluten-free doughnuts for well over a year now. A staff member is a doughnut whiz and whips up flavours based on ingredients used elsewhere in the baking for the day – she likes to repurpose ingredients and make new creations, like a chocolate coconut and lime or vanilla raspberry lemonade.
The gluten-free base includes chickpea flour and potato starch; sweetness comes from coconut sugar; icing options vary but the vegan cream cheese is a top-seller.
Would you get up at 3 a.m. to make dough? You would if you're Jayde Hryniuk.
The owner of Pals Donuts kicks off her morning hours before most us wake to supply Saskatoon with her tasty creations – often upwards of 600 per day!
All the magic happens in the Capitol Music Club's kitchen. She uses edible essential oils to make some of her flavours, like the London Fog. Regular picks include chocolate coconut, lime cheesecake, strawberries and cream – and – Nutella – oh my!
Hryniuk was drawn to baking at an early age (her grandma taught her mad kitchen skills).
Hryniuk saw the trend swinging towards doughnuts and launched her business in late 2017 via pop-ups at retail locations.
She and two friends later founded Revolve Cafe, an incubator for food start-ups. Hryniuk sells her doughnuts from the storefront and takes orders online. Grab one with your morning coffee at City Perks or your evening pint at The Capitol, too.
The popular Riversdale brunch spot has fresh doughnuts on the daily to delight every taste bud – decadent berry icing or even maple bacon topped treats. Just get there early on the weekend or plan on waiting for a table!
Saskatoon's newest addition to the doughnut scene is in Stonebridge and part of an American chain. It's only the second location to open in Canada and worth checking out because everything is created to order – the toppings and sauces are your choice.
Maybe S'mores or Nutella are calling your name, or perhaps an old-fashioned sugar dusting on hot mini-doughnuts is more your thing. Yum!
And there you have it! Saskatoon's best doughnut picks – now get out there and start eating and don't forget to tag #saskatooning in your pics.
Pro tip: You won't find doughnuts at Citizen Café & Bakery, but they have equally Instagram-worthy and delicious (dairy and egg-free) pop tarts every day.

First Kylee started out simply sitting on my lap and pressing the sewing pedal while I controlled the fabric. She played around and quickly figured out that the harder you push, the faster the machine goes and vise versa. We then graduated to her lifting and lowering the presser and then pushing the buttons to make the needle go up and down and go in reverse, I explained all the parts of the machine to her and always asked her to tell me what to do before she did it. We talked about safety and that the needle is sharp and that she must keep her fingers away from the needle. Another nice feature of my machine is that it has a button that tells the machine to always keep the needle down when you are not pushing the pedal, this helps prevent any accidental needle poking, Another rule when Kylee is sewing is that the needle must be set to the down position.
When Kylee was able to tell me the steps needed to safely sew something I started to let her guide the fabric while she sat on my lap. Eventually she graduated to me just sitting next to her while she sewed on her own. For what seemed like hours, she practiced sewing straight lines, that I had drawn onto fabric. When she could sew a straight line very well, I started to draw out curved and wavy lines onto scraps of fabric which she practiced over and over again. We then made small things like pillows and blankets for her dolls and stuffed animals and Kylee became very comfortable using my sewing machine. Today Kylee who is almost 8 uses the machine all by herself, I am in the room of course usually making dinner or doing dishes but she sets it up and sews all on her own with very little assistance.
Today, Kylee drew out a little bunny rabbit onto some scraps of felt and created this little softy. Isn't it cute.
I still sometimes draw a dashed line to help guide her as to where to sew because she has a hard time understanding how to keep a consistent seam allowance and this little guys had a lot of curves so the drawing of a dashed line was helpful for her so she could see and anticipate what she needed to do next.
You can see she did fairly good following the line. Often what happens if she doesn't have a line and is sewing around a curve is that she ends up very close to the edge and when she turns the fabric, there is a hole. With the dotted line, this rarely happens and sew sews much neater and straighter.
The bunny was then turned right side out and you no longer can see her drawing lines or the dashed sewing guides.
Kylee stuffed the little bunny and used her hand sewing skills to close up the bunny. She had me sew on the button eye and the whiskers while she made a little pom-pom that was sewed on for the tail.
I love the fact that Kylee has the ability to create something in her head and then produce it into a tangible item. We haven't started talking about patterns yet and how to use/read them but she has made this one of her summer goals so we will probably start learning about patterns by making a few simple skirts. Even my youngest son is interested in sewing and will begin learning how to sew using a sewing machine this summer. His first project, if you ask him is to make a sword. We will see how it goes.
Oh, how very lucky you are to have kids that want to learn to sew! I've been sewing all my life and taught my 2 girls (neither of whom enjoy it!). When my first granddaughter was born I thought she would like to learn. WRONG! But now she is a mom (making me a great g-ma) and NOW she wants to learn! And lives 2000 miles away! Good for Kylee wanting to learn and doing such a fantastic job of it! And good for you having such patience and skill to teach her so well! Looking forward to seeing many more of her creations!


The galleries re-opened after their summer hibernation! Yippee! So, a few weeks ago, I saw a bunch of art — and, as usual, patterns emerged: maps, graphs, notations, diagrams, flows, waves.
First, Mishka Henner's "Semi-Automatic" @ Bruce Silverstein: Henner aggregates data sets, images from mass media, and the stuff of the Internet. His best pieces mine Google Maps for examples of how the aerial view often reveals the accidentally sublime geometries of our man-made landscapes, and how those "objective" views are often convoluted by various commercial or security concerns.
Second, Trevor Paglen at Metro Pictures: In keeping with his ongoing investigation of covert military and intelligence operations, Paglen examines the "geography and aesthetics of the National Security Agency's (NSA) global surveillance programs." We see maps of NSA cable-tapping "choke points," photos of undersea cables (see also Nicole Starosielski's book and map on transoceanic cables), a two-channel video highlighting communications infrastructures and sites of covert intelligence operations, text crawlers of cryptographic codes, and other cool stuff.
Third, Sarah Sze at Tanya Bonakdar: Sze examines the materials, instruments, and conceptual techniques we employ to construct our senses of space — how we frame the fragments of an image (as we frequently do with composite satellite images) in order to grasp the "big picture," how we rely on a limited set of visual tropes to understand our place within the cosmos, and how our desire for orientation translates across different scales.
Fifth, Gordon Matta-Clark's "Energy and Abstraction" at David Zwirner examines the tree diagram, the flow chart, and other means of notating process, energy, movement.
The Xerox Book … was the first [project] where I proposed a series of 'requirements' for the project, concerning the use of a standard size paper and the amount of pages the 'container' within which the artist was asked to work. What I was trying to do was standardize the conditions of exhibition with the idea that the resulting differences in each artist's project or work, would be precisely what the artist's work was about.
Seventh, annotation and textual alteration — particularly process-driven, rule-based transformations — reappeared as themes and practices in "Marginalias" @ Field Projects.
Ninth, Christian Marclay's "Surround Sounds"@ Paula Cooper employs text to dramatically different effect. Sharing Marginalia's preference for puns, Marclay's flatly onomatopoetic Pop-esque paintings and video installation constitute a mute cacophony.
I want the films to have a physical presence and there is also a kind of physical adjustment I want to get between the sound and the image. It's not any rational measure or anything — I've just got to figure out how to get it to be the right balance so that one is constantly threatening the other. One element threatens with violence, the other with beauty.
Sound becomes physical in La Monte Young, Marian Zazeela, and Jung Hee Choi's "Dream House," relocated to Chelsea. And in Hitoshi Nomura's show at Fergus McCaffrey, sound is employed for methodological, rather than purely affective, purposes. Throughout his career Nomura has sought to make the passage of time, particularly the longue durée, perceptible, in part by employing evanescent materials — oxygen, dry ice, bacteria — and, here, sound. Electromagnetic waves, sonified, index celestial motion.
Also seen, and warranting no comment: Mark Grotjahn's "Painted Sculpture" @ Anton Kern; Robert Overby's "Persistence. Repeated." (No. Kidding.) at Andrew Kreps; Josh Smith @ Luhring Augustine.


The cast of "Doubt" has been awarded by the National Board of Review in the Best Ensemble category. Further, Viola Davis received an honour for the Breakthroguh Performance by an Actress. Also, earlier today Meryl received a Grammy nomination as the starring singer on the "Mamma Mia" soundtrack, in the Best Compilation Soundtrack Album For Motion Picture, Television Or Other Visual Media category. A full list of all Grammy nominees can be found here.

Caserma Garibaldi, è uno storico palazzo nel centro della città di Milano in stile neoclassico. Attualmente sede della Polizia di Stato, è di proprietà dell'Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore che lo ha acquistato nel 2015 per 88 milioni di euro. Sarà destinato all'ampliamento dell'ateneo dell'Università Cattolica.

Storia
Fu progetta da Gerolamo Rossi nel 1807 e conclusa da Giovanni Voghera nel 1843, diventando la Caserma dei Veliti Reali. La sua costruzione ha "inghiottito" l'intero convento dei francescani, risalente al XIV secolo e dedicato per l'appunto a San Francesco. Al suo interno, nella chiesa di San Francesco Grande, la Confraternita della concezione finanziò nel 1483 un'ancona d'altare, scolpita e dipinta, con al centro la "Vergine delle rocce" di Leonardo da Vinci. In seguito, il dipinto andò in possesso agli eredi della Confraternita ma venne trascurato, fino ad essere svenduto ad un collezionista inglese. Oggi è pertanto esposto alla National Gallery di Londra.

At first you may think you're staring at a pair of retro trucks from the 80s. In reality, these Ace 33s are anything but behind the times. Famous for providing the fastest grinds and precise turns at a price that won't break the bank, you can't go wrong with Ace.
The hangers are not bent or defective, the bend you see in the images is due to the curved hanger construction which allows you to more easily lock into grinds.
from indys as a grom, to venture then back to indy and finally back to i guess stage 3 indy like trucks called ace, they are superior to indy, they turn just like stage eleven indys when you want to turn, but are more stable when not turning way beyond a indy, its a dream truck and game changer, wont be on indy again.
Super turny trucks. They look sick. Super responsive and I'm hyped on them. I do recommend using krux bushings with them. No break in time!
if u ride 8.25, get the 44s.
Turns great. Lighter than most trucks. Landed my first heelflip!
Had ventures before these and what a difference! Close to Indy but lighter! And turns way better!
Can somebody please tell me what size to get for an 8.0 deck????
The ace 33 is an 8'' axle that is for an 8'' deck.
This is an 8.0 truck but that means the axel would be .01'' wider on each side of your deck, which is a very small and hard to notice amount.
do these trucks come in a pair?
Yea, all of our trucks come in pairs.

These Open-Source Designs Let Anyone Build A Better Block (No DIY Skills Required)
Now anyone can do the work to take ownership of their neighborhood. All it takes is effort and this kit from the Better Block Project.
By Adele Peters 2 minute Read
On a single weekend in 2010, a group of neighbors went to a little-used commercial block in Dallas, Texas, and redesigned it. By painting a DIY bike lane and adding temporary cafe seating, trees, lighting, and pop-up shops–and posting signs listing all of the outdated city codes they were violating–they showed how a few simple interventions could draw new life to a car-centric street full of vacant storefronts.
It was the beginning of the Better Block project, and similar interventions have since been repeated in more than 100 cities, often leading to permanent changes. Each project typically requires some design and carpentry skills, as people hack together new benches or bus stops.
But Better Block now has a new set of tools that anyone can use: Wikiblock, a library of downloadable designs that can be automatically printed out on a CNC machine.
"I'd go into these places that were empty or sterile and think, what can you do if you're not an architect or this high-end designer, but you want to transform the place or make it better?" says Jason Roberts, founder of the Better Block project.
"These tools give people an invitation to start doing well-designed street infrastructure improvements rapidly, and they don't necessarily have to wait for the expert to come around."
If someone wants to add new seating to a vacant lot in their neighborhood, they can buy a sheet of plywood, take it to a local makerspace, and print out the Wikiblock design for cafe seating. Most designs don't require any tools or nails to assemble.
"You can download this file, put it on the CNC router, and it will cut it out for you," says Roberts. "Two chairs, and a cafe table. You basically just slot them together like puzzle pieces."
Though Better Block's first projects were temporary interventions, the new plywood designs could last longer (assuming that city officials don't cart them away). The library of designs includes planters that can be used to separate a bike lane from the street, benches, kiosks for pop-up shops and cafes, fences for vacant lot beer gardens, and platforms to build safer pedestrian crossings. New designs will be added every week.
"People can go look at the built environment around them and say, okay, what's wrong? What's missing?" says Roberts. "We're trying to give everybody an easy inroad into transforming their neighborhoods."
Students at the architecture school at Kent State University collaborated on the designs, and the project got financial support from the Knight Foundation. Though the project is new, it's already getting use; one of the first neighborhoods to download the cafe seating design used it to build a space for Election Day parties in Long Beach, California.
