Home Other Tech Apps WhatsApp will soon be getting these three new features
WhatsApp will soon be getting these three new features
By Avani Bagga
Popular instant messaging app WhatsApp is always getting new features to make the user experience more friendly. A few days back, reports surfaced online claiming that WhatsApp will soon get stickers and update its Delete for Everyone feature.
And now according to WABetaInfo, the Twitter account that follows updates on WhatsApp's Beta version, the app will be getting three more features soon.
There will soon be an option of linking accounts, and switching on Vacation or Silent mode in WhatsApp. Let's take a look at how these features can change your experience in WhatsApp:
WhatsApp Vacation Mode
WhatApp allows its users to archive chats. However, whenever you receive a message from one of the archived chats, the conversation gets unarchived on its own. Step in Vacation Mode, that is set to change things. If you archive or a mute a chat, they wouldn't get unarchived automatically. With Vacation Mode, you can remove a chat from your recent chats list without having to delete it permanently. Vacation Mode is currently being developed and will be rolled out to both Android and iOS versions of the app.
WhatsApp Linked Account feature
If you have ever wondered that there should be a feature that enables users to recover their Instagram account using WhatsApp, you'll be happy to know that this feature will soon be coming to the popular instant messaging app. However, users will only be able to link their Facebook and Instagram accounts to WhatsApp. But once you do that, you'll be able to recover them using your WhatsApp account.
WhatsApp Silent Mode
WhatsApp Silent mode is actually being rolled out to all users who have smartphones running Android 8.0 Oreo and above. When Android Oreo was unveiled by Google, the company had introduced notification badges that show the number of pending notifications on top right of the app icon. Although WhatsApp had support for app badges, it included the messages received by muted chats in the number that was displayed on app badge of its icon. This led to the annoyance to a number of users, because when they opened their app they realized that the messages they came for was sent by a muted chat. But with Silent Mode, this wouldn't happen because WhatsApp would not display app badges for muted chats. What's even better, this feature will be enabled by default, so you don't have to change any settings.

August Burns Red Leveler (10th Anniversary) Review
ByConnor Dillon Posted on May 27, 2021 May 27, 2021
August Burns Red are very proud of their music and often play a large variety of their discography live. As the band progressed through the years they have kept songs from different albums on their setlists. Luckily the band knows what the crowd wants to hear and plays accordingly. In recent years the band have remained playing songs such as Poor Millionaire, Internal Cannon, Empire and some others. With the 10th anniversary re-recording of Leveler we decided to review the already incredible August Burns Red record. We also get to see how the band's modern touch has affected it after all theses years.
X is that perfect intro into the album that you hope for when a band releases a new album. It not only slowly leads into a classic ABR instrumental but pulls you in ready for whatever comes next. The song is so perfectly fit to this album's overall sound that you could play it immediately before any song. I didn't need a reason to be so in love with this re-recorded album before even getting into new tracks. Like mo but I'm happy the band added this extra touch to the album.
The original hype track to Leveler, before X became the intro for this re-recorded 10th anniversary edition of Leveler. Still an anthem in its own way, Empire stays very true to the original but with a crisper sound. My only disappointment with this song is I feel like the clean feel to this track takes from the original.
Internal Cannon
Immediately full force metal within one second, Internal Cannon still felt as metal as it did originally. This song feels much more whole than the original song. This rendition of Internal Cannon featured Matthew Heafy of Trivium and while I don't relate the two bands whatsoever. When doing this August Burns Red review, this was the song I was most excited for and I wasn't disappointed.
Divisions is filled with aggressive ABR elements that they've shown throughout every album they've released but the vocals stand out. The vocal style is very similar to the really heavy deep screams that the band had on Messengers and Constellations. While this album was released after those, it still didn't hit as hard upon first release compared to the original. I'm more of a fan of this album now than I was, outside of Internal Cannon and Empire.
Cutting The Ties
Cutting The Ties is a fast, brutal August Burns Red song that I honestly forget about more often than I wish I did but Leveler was never one of my favorite albums from the band. The song gets a little slower as it near its end but that's never the end of an August Burns Red song with the band always coming back hitting harder than they did earlier in the song. August Burns Red loves to take advantage of any break in the song to lead to listener into thinking the song is nearing its end before it swings again.
Pangaea is one of 3 songs on the album that feature guest vocals, but for Pangaea August Burns Red recruited Periphery guitarist Misha Mansoor. This song automatically has a standout guitar throughout its entirely holding down nothing but riffs from beginning to end. While that may be classic August Burns Red, this re-recording with Mansoor added that little extra touch that truly pushed the song to new boundaries.
Carpe Diem starts off with a eased in guitar that remains until about one minute in when the the track explodes and becomes an instant August Burns Red classic. As the song progresses it becomes a pretty dominant instrumental type of track but vocals eventually come back bringing this song to true August Burns Red fashion.
40 Nights starts off quick with rapid but hard hitting drums, but that's to be expected with any August Burns Red song or album that they will release. While most of the album feels sped up compared to the original, I'd have to say that 40 Nights feels different in a really interesting way. It doesn't necessarily feel slower but more in depth.
Salt & Light feels an awful lot like Rescue & Restore but this album always kind of felt like the baby of Rescue & Restore so it's perfectly fitting for this re-recording to mark a part of the band's current sound. This is another track on the Leveler re-recordings for the 10th anniversary that feels much faster now.
Poor Millionaire
Poor Millionaire features Ryan Kirby of Fit For A King with some vocals for the track and being that Fit For A King are supporting August Burns Red on their 10th anniversary tour for Leveler so hopefully we can hear this song live. I truly appreciate the band changing this fan-favorite from Leveler into an even larger fan-favorite with a favored vocalist from the scene. Poor Millionaire feels very clean compared to it's original but the nostalgia of the original certainly strengthens this re-recording.
Another instrumental from the band but unlike X, this song was included on the original Leveler album, this song is much slower than X as well. A much shorter song that's more acoustic than it is full band, especially compared to X that features a full arrangement of the band laying down a modern vibe to an older album and song. This song is more of an interlude or a track between tracks type of song.
Boys of Fall
Boys of Fall takes me back to the original Leveler album more than any other song among the re-recordings of Leveler for some reason. It could be because this song just embodies the general sound that August Burns Red had before Rescue & Restore but also showed the band's start to a departure from that sound. The combination of the two styles is clear here.
Title track, Leveler, feels so much deeper and angier than the original but still has that clean feel this album has brought us with each track. The song, if none of the above songs did, shows that the band can keep up with their selves even after releasing so much music between the original release of Leveler and the 10th anniversary edition. The perfect outro to the album, August Burns Red stays true to themselves and re-recorded another already incredible album and gave it a modern feel.
Overall, I'd have to say that writing this August Burns Red 10th anniversary Leveler review made me realize how great this album has always been and although it didn't need the modern touch I love these re-recorded albums and will always be eager for more. If you enjoy the original album or wish to get a physical copy of the 10th anniversary edition of Leveler, you can find merch here.

When 14-year police veteran Chris Sciolino reported for duty in June 2014, the last thing he expected was to have an accident involving a knife on a gun range.
Doctors performed two surgeries on his finger to repair the nerve damage. After the second surgery, Chris's doctor gave him a 50/50 chance of recovery. Unfortunately, the odds were against him.
Unable to perform his duties, Chris had to retire early from the force in October 2015.
He also wasn't aware that he even had a long term disability policy through his employer, until Unum disability benefits specialist Tracy Sawyer called him.
Because Chris was injured on the job, he's receiving a worker's compensation benefit. However, it's not replacing as much of his salary as his employer-provided long term disability (LTD) coverage would, so his LTD is paying out the difference.
Knowing he could count on his monthly long term disability benefit took a lot of stress off of Chris.
For many people who've been disabled, returning to a productive lifestyle may be a major goal. But knowing where to start can be a daunting task. Unum's expert vocational rehabilitation consultants focus on understanding the needs of employees recovering from a disability.
Chris credits that support with helping him land his new job and was amazed by the response he got from the two Unum employees who assisted him.


Carla Calhoun ("Bush no friend to FOIA," Oct. 4) was concerned that Gov. Sarah Palin ignored the press on her jet flight returning back to Alaska with a number of Sen. McCain advisors, not Bush advisors.
These are the same reporters who belittled her and her family and also fired gotcha questions at her one after another. Ask the people of Alaska how accountable she is and you will see she shares full information to the people. As for change, do you want Rosie, Alec, M. Moore and the Hollywood croonies running around the White House?

Send an email directly to the Canadian Judicial Council
Fill out the form on this page to email the Canadian Judicial Council demanding an investigation into Justice Germain's conduct.
In a shocking court order more suited to Communist China than to a liberal democracy, a Canadian judge just sentenced a Christian pastor to a bizarre form of censorship.
It's actually worse than censorship, it's compelled speech: whenever Pastor Artur Pawlowski speaks in public about the pandemic, government lockdowns or forced vaccines, he must then immediately repudiate his own views and express the official government opinion.
Whether it's a sermon, a media interview or even a Facebook post, Pastor Artur is now compelled to say things he doesn't believe — and if he doesn't, he risks another prison term.
In a shocking 40-minute rant, the Canadian judge — Justice Adam Germain of the Court of Queen's Bench — repeatedly attacked Pastor Artur's character and engaged in a series of personal insults, none of which had anything to do with the issues at trial.
The judge also raged that Pastor Artur dared to visit other churches, including in the U.S., to warn them about the threat to their liberty — and so he tailored his court order to make that impossible, by forbidding Pastor Artur from leaving the Province of Alberta for 18 months..
We are crowdfunding Pastor Artur's appeal of this appalling ruling, and we are optimistic that it will be overturned by higher courts as unconstitutional and without legal precedent in a democracy.
But that's not enough. Justice Adam Germain's hate-filled rant has brought the administration of justice into disrepute. His anti-Christian bigotry has no place in Canadian courts.
Please sign the petition on this page to have the Canadian Judicial Council, the body that disciplines abusive judges, suspend Justice Germain while his misconduct is investigated.
There is no room for anti-Christian hate in Canadian courts.
You can read Justice Germain's ruling here.

Alistair Cooke dies
LONDON (AP) – Alistair Cooke, the broadcaster who epitomized highbrow television as host of "Masterpiece Theatre" and whose "Letter from America" was a radio fixture in Britain for 58 years, has died, the British Broadcasting Corp. said Tuesday. He was 95.
Cooke died at his home in New York at midnight, a spokeswoman at the BBC's press office said. No cause of death was given, but Cooke had retired earlier this month because of heart disease.
"I have had much enjoyment in doing these talks and hope that some of it has passed over to the listeners, to all of whom I now say thank you for your loyalty and goodbye," Cooke said when he stepped down on the advice of his doctor.
Prime Minister Tony Blair expressed sadness at the broadcaster's death.
"I was a big fan. I thought they were extraordinary essays and they brought an enormous amount of insight and understanding to the world," Blair told the BBC, referring to Cooke's broadcasts.
"He was really one of the greatest broadcasters of all time, and we shall feel his loss very, very keenly indeed," Blair said.
"For many Americans he will always be associated with the best of Britain," said William Farish, the U.S. ambassador in London. "He had movie star good looks, a poised and effortless manner, a first-class mind, and – most flatteringly – a sincere and abiding interest in all things American."
Cooke's family informed BBC reporter Nick Clarke of the death, the BBC spokeswoman said. Clarke has written a biography of Cooke.
"I think he thought retirement was a very bad idea and when he was forced to stop work three weeks ago, I thought, this won't be long now, because here was a man living for this one task," Clarke told Sky News TV.
"Letter from America," which was carried on the BBC World Service and on Radio 4 in Britain, started in 1946, and was originally scheduled to run 13 weeks.
"Alistair is a national institution," said Christopher Sarson, the original executive producer of "Masterpiece Theatre," once said. "He has defined what public television was and is for so many people that it is difficult to imagine life without him."
Born Alfred Cooke in Salford in northern England in 1908, he earned an honors degree in English from Cambridge University.
In 1932 he came to the United States to study at Yale University, and he journeyed across the country by car.
"That trip was an absolute eye-opener for me," he recalled. "Even then, even in the Depression, there was a tremendous energy and vitality to America. The landscape and the people were far more gripping and dramatic than anything I had ever seen.
"It truly changed me. You see, from then on my interest in the theater began to wane, and I began to take up what I felt was the real drama going on – namely, America itself."
Returning to England and, having changed his name to Alistair, Cooke joined the BBC in 1934 as a film critic. He has been the BBC commentator on American affairs since 1938.
Cooke published 12 books including "Alistair Cooke's America" (1973) which sold more than 800,000 copies in hard cover.
In addition to his BBC work, Cooke was London correspondent for the NBC network in 1936-37, The Manchester Guardian's United Nations correspondent from 1945 to 1948, and chief U.S. correspondent of The Guardian until 1972.
He was host of the "Omnibus" television program in the United States from 1952 to 1961, and presented "Masterpiece Theatre" on the PBS network from 1971 to 1992.
He received four Emmy awards, three George Foster Peabody awards for broadcasting, and he was made an honorary Knight Commander, Order of the British Empire. It was an honorary award because Cooke, the consummate Englishman, had become a U.S. citizen in 1941.
Cooke's "insight, wisdom and unique ability to craft words enabled millions of listeners in the UK and around the world to understand the texture of the United States and its people," said Mark Byford, acting director general of the BBC.

Tampa Bay Rays - TeamReport
MLB Team Report - Tampa Bay Rays - INSIDE PITCH
Chris Archer didn't get off to good start in his major league debut Wednesday, allowing three runs (one earned) on three hits in a messy 31-pitch first inning at Washington.
Then he got some guidance from first baseman Carlos Pena, and he got much better, allowing only a walk over the next five innings. Archer, 23, struck out seven and walked one.
"Mentally, I kind of slipped in the first," Archer said after the Rays' 3-2 loss. "And then Carlos Pena came up to me between innings and he's like, 'Look, this battle isn't against the Washington Nationals, it's against yourself. And tonight, you need to conquer yourself.'
"And once I started to take that mentality, it started to work. I stopped pitching against the other team, and I started pitching for myself. Same game, different stage. Maybe it did overwhelm me a little bit in the first. But after that talk with Pena, I pitched pretty well."
Archer got his fastball under control and was suddenly in command, impressing people in both dugouts.
"He's a great pitcher; he's got good stuff," Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper said. "He's pretty laid back, and he's laid back while throwing 96 mph. That's pretty damn good."
MLB Team Report - Tampa Bay Rays - NOTES, QUOTES
--RHP Joel Peralta declined to speak to the media Wednesday as he awaited disciplinary action from Major League Baseball after being ejected from Tuesday's game when the umpires found pine tar in his glove. There is precedent for a 10-game suspension, but Rays executive vice president Andrew Friedman said there may be some leeway. "I don't think it's that cut and dry," he said. "Personally, I think it will be less than that, but I don't really know. It's in their hands."
--LHP Matt Moore, who starts Thursday, is pitching better and feeling better about a three-game winning streak. "I think obviously his confidence is up," manager Joe Maddon said. "His last game in particular, the breaking-ball strike was a big part of that. ... And more than anything, his fastball command looks like it's gotten better."
--OF Matt Joyce was still stiff and "a little sore" after leaving Tuesday's game with tightness on the left side of his lower back. Joyce sat out Wednesday but was confident he didn't pull anything and that there would not be a disabled-list stint forthcoming.
--INF Jeff Keppinger (broken right big toe) is 3-for-17 (.176) through five rehab games for Class AAA Durham. He is on track to rejoin the Rays this weekend in Philadelphia.
--DH Luke Scott is targeting a return Monday in Kansas City. He has been out since June nine due to back stiffness.
--RHP Taylor Guerrieri, the Rays 2011 first-round pick, made his pro debut on Wednesday, pitching five shutout innings for short-season Class A Hudson Valley, allowing two hits, walking one and striking out six.
BY THE NUMBERS: 67 -- Games needed for RHP Fernando Rodney to reach 20 saves, fewest in Rays history. RHP Roberto Hernandez needed 69 games in 1999.
QUOTE TO NOTE: "Most men have tweeters, and I would never use my tweeter to an unfair advantage." -- Manager Joe Maddon, after Nationals manager Davey Johnson said he didn't want to get into a shouting match with Maddon since he "had a tweeter." The two men exchanged verbal barbs over RHP Joel Peralta's ejection Tuesday for having pine tar on his glove.
MLB Team Report - Tampa Bay Rays - ROSTER REPORT
MEDICAL WATCH:
--OF Matt Joyce (back tightness) left the June 19 game, and he didn't play June 20. He is day-to-day.
--3B Evan Longoria (partial tear of left hamstring) went on the 15-day disabled list May 1. He began a rehab assignment with Class AAA Durham on June 16, but he left the June 18 game with renewed discomfort and was pulled from the minor league assignment. He was due to resume rehabbing with the major league team, and there is no timetable for his return.
--DH Luke Scott (mid-back spasms) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to June 9. He hopes to be activated June 25.
--INF Jeff Keppinger (broken right big toe) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to May 19. He began a rehab assignment with Class AAA Durham on June 15, and he could be activated during the weekend of June 22-24.
--RHP Kyle Farnsworth (right elbow strain) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to April 1, and he was transferred to the 60-day DL on May 1. He began throwing a ball in a sock May 1. He threw off a mound for the first time May 23, then threw to hitters June 6.
--RHP Jeff Niemann (fractured right fibula) went on the 15-day disabled list May 15, and he was transferred to the 60-day DL on May 16.

As a result, Mental Health & Addiction Services is hosting a Focus Group in Corner Brook and are seeking individuals (or family members) from the Western Region with lived experience of mental health and/or addictions. Participants will help inform the development and implementation of mental health and addiction actions to support this strategic issue. Individuals participating in the focus group will be asked to discuss how their lived experience could shape and support Western Health's action plan.
The Focus Group will be held on October 23, 2017 from 2:30 pm to 4:00 pm. To register, email mha@westernhealth.nl.ca or call 634-4171. The deadline for registration is October 13, 2017.
Teleconference and/or videoconference services will be available to participants who live outside the Corner Brook area.
To improve our healthcare system, NL SUPPORT is seeking 4 young adults ages 19 to 30 to sit on their Patient Advisory Council. This Council consists of a group of people from across the province that help NL SUPPORT make informed decisions about healthcare research. No work or volunteer experience is necessary. This is a great opportunity for any indigenous young adults to get their voices heard and help make a change to the healthcare system.
If you are interested in joining the Patient Advisory Council please contact Eva Vat at 709-864-6654 or eva.vat@med.mun.ca before the deadline: October 6th, 2017.
During the 60 years that passed before the recognition of Qalipu First Nation in 2011, our people experienced a loss from their cultural and traditional practices. Being an off-reserve landless Band makes us unique from other First Nations and, according to what some may say, may be responsible for a grassroots disconnection.
Research indicates that culture impacts individual and community health, as it influences interaction with the health care system and engagement in health programs and services (National Aboriginal Health Organization, 2008). In both the Federation of Newfoundland Indians Health Needs Assessment (2010) and Qalipu First Nation's Healing Waters Study (2015), members indicated that culture was important to them in terms of overall health, and they identified a need for more culturally appropriate health initiatives.
To further investigate these findings, Qalipu First Nation's Health Division is conducting a research study that will assess our members' needs for health promotion initiatives, and help us gain a better understanding of their cultural and traditional practices with respect to health.
Survey participants will be asked to answer questions about what their needs are for health promotion initiatives, as well as what aspects of Mi'kmaq culture and traditions are most significant to them. Survey data will be collected through on-line, paper format, or through face-to-face or telephone interviews. Paper format surveys will be mailed out to members at their request. Face-to-face and telephone interviews will be conducted by a researcher. The on-line and paper format surveys will take 10-30 minutes to complete; face-to-face and telephone interviews may take up to 90 minutes.
To participate in this study, participants must be a registered member of Qalipu First Nation and be at least 18 years of age. They must be able to communicate in the English language.
Participants who complete the survey may benefit by participating in this survey by feeling that their opinions and desires regarding health promotion initiatives have been heard. Subsequently, they may be more inclined to engage in health promotion initiatives due to QFN integrating an approach in health promotion activities that are suited towards Mi'kmaq cultural and traditional practices. It is also possible that the benefits of this study may result in improved health outcomes of Qalipu First Nation members.
To learn more about or participate in this research study, please contact Jenna Osmond, Manager of Health, Qalipu First Nation.
In honour of Safe Kids Week 2016-Preventing Injuries At Home, At Play and On the Road, Qalipu First Nation will partner with Western Health (Corner Brook and Bay of Islands Primary Health Care Team) and the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary, Corner Brook division, to offer a safety event for our children and their caregivers. The event will include interactive activities geared toward learning more about injury prevention, such as bicycle/helmet safety, playground safety, and safe practices at home. The event will take place this coming Thursday, June 16, 6:00-8:00 PM at the Majestic Park in Corner Brook. Light refreshments will be served.
In the event of rain, the event will go ahead in the Qalipu Community Room, 1 Church St. (upper level).
Healthy Eating at "Seal Fest" this Weekend!
It's also worth noting that although there's a lot of negative hype, especially among some celebrities, Seal hunting and processing is sustainable industry in Newfoundland and Labrador so, you can feel good about this food choice.
Seal Fest, hosted by Coleman's in Mount Pearl, Stephenville and the Gardens in Corner Brook, will feature talented local chef's teaching people creative ways to prepare seal. I encourage all of you to come out and learn more about this healthy, natural food. See you there!
Drug and alcohol addictions affect more than the addicted person; relationships, families and communities all feel the impact of what are often harmful and dangerous addictive behaviors.
Part of the role of the Qalipu Health Services division is to help bring awareness to the programs and services that are available to indigenous communities, and to help individuals receive the care that they need.
If you or someone you know is battling an addiction, you may want to consider exploring Health Canada's National Native Alcohol and Drug Abuse Program (NNADAP).
Please click here for more information on NNADAP.
The services available through NNADAP are integrated with a national network of addiction treatment centres which provide culturally relevant in-patient and outpatient programming.To find out more about these treatment centres, click here.
NNADAP can be covered under the NIHB program. If you or someone you known is battling an addiction contact Howard Thistle, Qalipu Mi'Kmaq First Nation's NIHB Navigator, at 1-855-675-5743 or 1-709-679-5743 to find out more about NNADAP.

Ancient vineyards are the key to the revitalized wines of the modern region of Campania in the south of Italy.
Campania's wines were first enjoyed by the Romans whose proud tradition of producing Falernian from Aglianico grapes around Naples was reflected in other parts of the region. They also produced a white wine that is thought to be related to the modern Falanghina. Wines made around Vesuvius and Avellino were similarly revered. Even today, as improvements in both the vineyard and the winery have influenced the style of wine produced here, there is still a great respect for tradition reflected in the use of native grapes that are largely unknown in other parts of the world.
Campania has four DOCG appellations for the ancient wines of Taurasi, Fiano di Avellino, Falerno del Massico and Greco di Tufo. Taurasi is the region's most prolific wine made from the Aglianico grape, whose name is derived from "Hellenic" as the grape was first introduced by the Greeks. Sometimes known as "The Barolo of the South", Taurasi and other exceptional reds from Falerno del Massico reflect the sheer potential of the grape. Like Barolo the wines have great ageing potential, although the flavours that emerge with age show the wine to be markedly different from the great Nebbiolos.

RETURNING THE FAVOR TRIFON EFREMOV FOUND A NEW LIFE IN HOLLYWOOD, AND HE GLADLY GIVES BACK TO THE COMMUNITY.
PAUL HEIDELBERG, Staff WriterSUN-SENTINEL
When Trifon Efremov escaped from a Bulgarian labor camp on Sept. 27, 1948, he didn't know if he'd ever be reunited with his wife, Klementina, or meet his son, Dimitre, born months earlier.
"I thought there was going to be a war between the U.S. and the Soviets," Trifon said. "I didn't think I'd see my family again. Everything is possible. I die, or maybe there'd be a war and the Communists would kill them."
Imprisoned for his anti-communist beliefs, Trifon fled the camp, and his native Bulgaria, finding refuge in Yugoslavia. He spent eight years making his way through Italy, via Trieste, and France and West Germany, before reaching his final destination -- the United States.
Trifon spent 29 years waiting for his wife, and 36 years passed before he held in his arms the son he had never seen. He spent $150,000 on attorney's fees and endless hours writing letters -- including pleas to presidents Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter and Reagan -- before Bulgarian bureaucracy budged, and he tearfully embraced his family in "the land of opportunity" in 1984.
"The American people have everything," Trifon said. "This freedom is so much. The American people don't know how lucky they are and how to use the freedom. More people have to keep this country up so it doesn't fall down."
Trifon has been a restaurateur since moving to the United States. He came to Hollywood in 1971.
"It's the best I can find," he said. "I am in this business since 1958 and nobody bothers me about nothing."
The Efremovs -- Trifon and Klementina, Dimitre and his wife Vanya and their children Tanya and Vladimir -- have worked at Trifon's Family Restaurant in Hollywood since 1985. They have worked to give back to their adopted country. An example is their annual Christmas dinner for retarded children from the South Florida State Hospital in Pembroke Pines.
"I left my son and my family to suffer," Trifon said. "Right now when the mother or father puts the kids in the institute, they don't have nobody to give them something at Christmas. We give them something."
In recognition for such altruism, the Efremovs received the West Hollywood American Legion Post 308's Family of the Year Award on May 25.
"They do a lot of work for the community," said post commander Michael T. Joyce of Hollywood. "If someone comes into their restaurant hungry, they'll give them food graciously.
"In the short time Dimitre has been here, he has done better than some who have lived here a lifetime."
Dimitre, of Miramar, was an artist in Bulgaria and Vanya a telex operator. Dimitre arrived in the United States first, and was followed eight months later by Vanya, Tanya and Vladimir after Dimitre joined Trifon in sending a barrage of letters and requests to bureaucrats and government officials in Buglaria and the United States.
In Bulgaria, Dimitre painted sets for the National Opera in Sophia. He has paintings on display at Trifon's Family restaurant and his murals cover its walls.
"I always had work as an artist, but there are many problems with living in Bulgaria," he said. "I remember waiting a half-day for a taxi -- I got off work at noon and had to wait in line for five or six hours."
"I'm not afraid to visit Bulgaria," Vanya said, "but really, I don't want to go back. For 20 years we try to come here."
And such a visit might cause a separation. The Efremovs have had enough separation.
"We're always together here," Dimitre said. "We didn't see each other for so long."


I have been the database administrator at the Employment Service office since December 2017. Before that I did some administrative support on a casual basis.
My proudest moment is when a client comes in to say thank you, because the advice I offered helped them to find a job that they love.
I was born into a military family, I became a military wife and most recently became a military mom. Believe it or not, all three branches are represented in this family…ground, air and navy.
People can expect a friendly smile and a helping hand. I will go out of my way to help others.
My favourite part is the opportunity to interaction with different people.
What is your greatest accomplishment or proudest moment working for the PMFRC?
My husband and I moved from Brighton to Petawawa 3 years ago.
Get out and explore the area, you never know what will turn up…. people , places opportunities.
My favorite thing about living in Petawawa has got to be boating on the river. I will admit that I do miss the snow and downhill skiing on the mountains in Quebec.
Leave us with a few words of wisdom -- what is your favourite quote?

Q: How to access a global variable in a closure? (Javascript)             var events = <?php echo $sf_data->getRaw('jsonData'); ?>;//some perfecly fine json
            var locations = new Array();
            var geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
            $(events).each(function(i,e){
                geocoder.geocode({address: e.place},function(results,statusCode){
                    locations[e.id] = results[0].geometry.location;
                })
            })
            alert(locations.length);

Okay, the question is easy.
How do i modify the locations array inside of closure?
The alert shows 0.

A: The alert shows 0 because you modify locations asynchronously. Anonymous function where you modify locations will be called later then you show alert.

Defendant, Albi Abdullah, was arraigned on August 1, 2008 on a charge of criminal possession of a weapon in the fourth degree pursuant to Penal Law 265.01(1). Defendant moves for dismissal of the charge on the ground that the PL 265.01 is unconstitutional and that such charge constitutes a violation of defendant's Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms in his home for self protection, pursuant to the US Constitution., Amendments II and XIV; and pursuant to the holding of the US Supreme Court in District of Columbia v. Heller, 128 Sup Ct 2783 (2008). Defendant further supports his claim of unconstitutionality on the alleged arbitrary and capricious nature of the City's gun licensing process as managed by the New York City Police Department.
The People base their response on the ground that the Supreme Court has repeatedly held that the language of the Second Amendment places limits upon the power of Congress, not upon the powers of the States. (See US v. Cruikshank, 92 US 542 ; Presser v. Illinois, 116 US 252 ) The People argue that Heller, by its own terms, is neither applicable to nor bind ing upon the States, and that it cannot be interpreted to mean that the Second Amendment bars a state's reasonable regulation of gun possession. The court has reviewed the defendant's moving papers, the People's response, relevant statutes and case law, and for the reasons discussed hereafter, denies the defendant's motion.
Pursuant to the complaint, defendant's motion, and the response filed by the People, Police Officer Chiwen Cen was brought to the marital abode in response to a call that defendant was present in the home in violation of a temporary order of protection that had been issued ex parte on the previous day. When defendant was asked if he had any weapons he stated, in substance, that there was a weapon in the top cabinet in the kitchen. The Officer recovered an unloaded .25 caliber semi‑automatic pistol from inside a kitchen cabinet. Defendant was arrested for violation of Penal Law _ 265.01(1).
Because New York does not have a complete ban on the possession of handguns in the home and because the District of Columbia is a federal enclave and not a State, Heller is distinguishable and its holding does not invalidate New York's gun possession laws or regulations. The Second Amendment has been recently held not to apply to the States and is not incorporated into the Fourteenth Amendment. (See Bach v. Pataki, 408 F 3d 75, 86 [2nd Cir, 2005]; Parker v. District of Columbia, 478 F 3d 370,391, n. 13 [DC Circuit, 2007]) Therefore, in New York, possession of a firearm remains a criminal act, pursuant to Penal Law Article 265, unless one holds a license to so possess, pursuant to Penal Law _ 265.20(3) and Article 400. People v. Zabar Lynch, 2008 NY Misc LEXIS 4587; 240 NYLJ 15 (July 15, 2008).
Defendant's motion to dismiss on the ground that Penal Law 265.01 violates the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution is denied.
This opinion constitutes the decision and order of the court.
As criminal cases go, this is not such a bad one to use. He is charged with mere possession in his home, so its not like he went out and shot someone.
Someone help me with this: Parker/Heller case was filed in DC because it is federal land and no incorporation issue would need to be decided, correct?
So what does these mean?
that the Second Amendment is neither applicable to nor binding upon the States (Heller, supra, 2812‑13).
I think David is dead on, this is pass the buck upstairs.
You would think they would try harder.
If the fed constitution does NOT apply to the states then how is Roe v Wade at all an issue? Only abortions in DC and other non-states would be under the authority and it would be up to states.
It's simple. Beginning with, and afterward based upon, a horrible decision, the courts have ignored the privileges and immunities clause of the 14th Amendment and selectively incorporated only certain rights against state infringement through the due process clause. In other words, you're not cherry picking; the courts are.
also what is the result of: People v. Connelly, 54 AD 3d 348 [2d Dept, 2008] I can't find anything on this case.
"...and that the Second Amendment is neither applicable to nor binding upon the States (Heller, supra, 2812‑13)."
This is taking the text of the opinion grossly out of context. They said so such thing. If anything the text can be used to confirm that the States must protect the right.

How many half-used bottles of condiments would you say you have in your refrigerator at this very moment. Five? Ten? Twenty? I don't know how many I have but I know it's too many. So when I have the opportunity to make a sauce or condiment from things I already have on hand insteading of buying yet another bottle, I'm going to do that. I love sweet chili sauce, but I only use it maybe once or twice per year and each time I'm left with half a bottle that haunts the back of my fridge for-ev-er. So this time I decided to make my own smaller batch of easy sweet chili sauce using a few simple ingredients that I usually have on hand (including another condiment that commonly haunts my fridge!).
This isn't a from-scratch, authentic sweet chili sauce. Sweet chili sauce is usually made with fresh red chiles, but I rarely see those at the store, so I took a short cut. I used sambal oelek, which is basically just red chiles and vinegar. Since vinegar is another main ingredient in sweet chili sauce, this using sambal oelek is a great shortcut.
Thankfully, sambal oelek is really easy to find in major grocery stores these days. Just look in the international foods aisle, near the sriracha. There is another product, chili garlic sauce, which is similar but has garlic in addition to the red chiles and vinegar. You can use that for your sweet chili sauce, but it will add a slightly garlicky flavor.
How else can you use sambal oelek? It's great in all sorts of stir fry sauces, I like to put it on my eggs, rice bowls, soups, and more. It's extremely versatile and can be used on just about anything. Here is the archive of recipes that use sambal oelek on this site.
Add the rice vinegar, sugar, water, and sambal oelek to a small sauce pot. Heat and stir the mixture over medium heat until the sugar fully dissolves.
Stir the cornstarch into 1 Tbsp water until dissolved, then pour it into the sauce pot with the sweet chili sauce. Continue stirring and heating until the mixture comes up to a simmer, at which time the cornstarch will thicken the sauce and go from appearing cloudy to clear.
Use the sauce immediately, or refrigerate and use within one week.
Combine 1/4 cup rice vinegar, 1/4 cup cup sugar, 1/4 cup water, and 1 Tbsp sambal oelek in a small sauce pot.
This is the rice vinegar I use. It's important to use rice vinegar because it is more mild than other types of vinegar and will make the sauce tangy without being overly sour. I do not suggest using a different type of vinegar.
Heat and stir the mixture in the sauce pot over medium heat until the sugar fully dissolves and the mixture looks clear. This should happen very quickly, within a few minutes.
When the sauce reaches a simmer, the cornstarch will thicken the sauce. At this point you'll also notice the cornstarch going from white and cloudy to clear. And now your Easy Sweet Chili Sauce is finished!
You can either use the sauce immediately, or refrigerate it and use it within a week.
I used a no calorie sugar substitute as that is all I had on hand. Worked great. Had to add a bit more "sugar" and vinegar (maybe a teaspoon or so of sugar, and a tablespoon of vinegar), but I'm also not a big spicy petson.

Four years ago, cloud computing firm Box outgrew its space in Los Altos and went hunting for a larger office. First, it had to grapple with its CEO's desire to remain near Palo Alto, where many draw Silicon Valley's northern border.
After losing out on a potential Los Altos property to deep-pocketed Google, Box searched farther north, settling on a former parking lot near the train tracks in downtown Redwood City.
CEO Aaron Levie said he wanted to be near Palo Alto because it was part of Box's roots. The company, founded in 2005, occupied two cottages in Berkeley before moving to Palo Alto, where it had its first real office. It was close to other startups and investors, and also a short commute for Levie, who lived in the Peninsula city. It spent years there before decamping to Los Altos.
Levie says he never worried about whether Redwood City was technically in Silicon Valley, though he saw the company as having roots in Palo Alto. If he misses the old neighborhood, he shouldn't worry. It's coming his way, as Silicon Valley, overcrowded farther down the Peninsula, hunts for space.
Stanford University, whose location is often cited as a reason why Silicon Valley sprang up where it did, is building office space for 2,700 employees that is expected to open next year in Redwood City. Evernote made the move from Mountain View not long before Box did.

Box executives argued that Redwood City was a location where the company could finally fit its workers in one central place. About 40 percent of employees came from San Francisco, and they could cut their commute.
Box's arrival helped revitalize downtown Redwood City, which was once known among some locals as "Deadwood City." The company employs 900 people at its brick office building near the Caltrain stop. It's a short walk to amenities, including a movie theater, restaurants and bars, as well as offices for startups. Construction is continuing ahead of the arrival of even more groups, including 450 employees with the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, a company created by Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan.
"Every day I look out, there are new cranes popping up everywhere," said Box General Counsel Peter McGoff. "The (city's) reputation has changed from this sleepy little town north of Palo Alto to a potential tech hub."
Downtown Redwood City used to be a bustling retail center, with large stores like Montgomery Ward, the Fox Theatre and a sign hoisted up in the 1920s that boasted that the city was "Climate Best by Government Test." But over the years, as more residents got in their cars and traveled to nearby shopping malls, the downtown fell into disrepair with empty storefronts.

In 2011, city officials began a dramatic plan to redesign the downtown. Over 20 years in its 183-acre downtown, city leaders hoped to build 500,000 square feet of office space, 2,500 housing units, 100,000 square feet of retail and 200 hotel rooms. It has made a dent into those goals, already reaching the cap on office space downtown.
Today, people can shop for furniture at Cost Plus World Market, dine at the Old Spaghetti Factory and catch a movie at the downtown Century theater. Rosanne Foust, CEO of the San Mateo County Economic Development Association and a former Redwood City councilwoman, still remembers the day her daughter came home from school and excitedly said, "Oh my gosh, Mommy, Redwood City has a Philz," the popular Bay Area coffee chain.
"Yeah, we arrived," Foust recalled saying.
Redwood City, a 36-minute express Caltrain ride from San Francisco, has "become this sweet spot from a recruiting perspective and a retention perspective," said Bo McNally, a partner with T3 Advisors, a commercial real estate firm that serves startups.
When the company arrived in 2015, city policies for a building its size were "antiquated" and had to be updated, according to Sandra Ladao, Box's senior director of workplace services. For example, Ladao says, "it took longer to get a Box logo on the building" — about a year — "than it (did) to build the entire building."
Developers also began to create offices designed for startups, and the demand was so great that the city tightened its rules last year on ground-floor office space to preserve room for retail on Main Street.
Redwood City is home to other large tech firms, including Electronic Arts and Oracle in the Redwood Shores neighborhood. But the growth downtown is relatively new. As a result, rents now rival some spaces in San Francisco, McNally said. The vacancy rate for offices downtown is just 2 percent, said Aaron Aknin, Redwood City's assistant city manager.
"Similar to downtown Palo Alto, we have the critical mass of businesses now that other businesses want to come," Aknin said.

Peter Cuschieri says the influx of companies has helped his restaurant, Angelica's.
"It's been good for business," said Cuschieri, who co-owns the restaurant with his wife. "If it wasn't for the startups, we would be struggling."
In February, roughly 7,000 people from around the world came to Redwood City for its annual Startup Grind conference, which has been held in the city for four years. Entrepreneurs gathered inside a historic theater to pitch their startups to audience members. For some attendees, Redwood City is their glimpse into Silicon Valley life. It was the first time Zaur Agamov, a Dubai resident, had ever visited the Bay Area.
"Oracle's offices are here, so Redwood (City) is pretty much Silicon Valley," reasoned Agamov, head of engineering for Cheeze, a photo-sharing app. For him, Silicon Valley was more about the people he met. He was struck by their upbeat spirit.
"It's just like the movies," Agamov said.

US Urges China to Change Calculus on N. Korea Ahead of Security Talks
Asia Latest Stories North America
By Editor June 21, 2017
The United States is urging China to play a more prominent role in combating global terrorism and help "change the calculus" on North Korea, ahead of high-level security talks with Beijing.
The first round of the U.S.-China Diplomatic and Security Dialogue kicks off in Washington Wednesday.
Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Secretary of Defense James Mattis will host a Chinese delegation led by State Councilor Yang Jiechi and General Fang Fenghui, chief of the People's Liberation Army's Joint Staff Department.
Senior U.S. officials say China has "taken a fairly limited profile" in counterterrorism efforts. It is not a member of the 68-nation global coalition countering the Islamic State militant group
"We would like to see them step up and take more responsibility," Acting Assistant Secretary of State for East Asia Susan Thornton told VOA on Monday.
Thornton said China has "a lot of interest in Iraq," and the U.S. thinks it should be doing more to contribute to the efforts of the international coalition to defeat IS.
Killings concern China
Earlier this month, two Chinese citizens were killed by Islamic State militants after being kidnapped in southwestern Pakistan. In November 2015, IS said it killed Chinese national Fan Jinghui. Both cases triggered grave concern from Beijing.
"We have seen them [Chinese officials] become more interested over time," added Thornton, noting the talks are "an early feeler" on getting China more involved.
On Tuesday, Chinese officials said both countries have been victims of terrorism.
"Cooperation is in the interests of both sides," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said in Beijing.
Leveraging China's ties to North Korea
On North Korea, the U.S. is looking for China to "change the calculus" of the isolated regime and exert its leverage as North Korea's largest trading partner.
"The most urgent and dangerous threat to peace and security in the Asia-Pacific region is North Korea," said Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for East Asia David Helvey on Tuesday. "We seek to deepen our cooperation to realize the outcome which is in the best interest of peace and security in the region and the world."
The United Nations has blacklisted hundreds of North Korean entities, but many of them try to get business done though China, according to U.S. officials.
The issue is a sticking point between Washington and Beijing that experts say needs to be the focus of frank discussion.
"The Chinese remain unconvinced that the U.S. goal is not regime change. The U.S. side remains unconvinced that China's goal is not to use the North Korean problem as leverage in the relationship," Dennis Wilder from Georgetown University's U.S.-China Initiative told VOA.
"This is a matter of strategic trust that can only be built through this type of dialogue at the most senior levels," added Wilder, who served as the senior director for East Asian affairs at the National Security Council under former President George W. Bush.
'Freeze' proposed
Rand Corporation senior defense analyst Derek Grossman notes the "last thing Beijing wants is a conflict that would end Kim Jong Un's regime and unleash new power dynamics at its doorstep."
Grossman said China's perpetual security concern is reflected in its proposal that the U.S. and South Korea "freeze" routine joint exercises in exchange for Pyongyang suspending its missile and nuclear programs.
U.S. officials say they welcome actions by countries that have ramped up pressure on Pyongyang, including phasing out the use of North Korean laborers, and denying the landing rights and refueling privileges of North Korea's national airline Air Koryo.
"A lot of the wages of these workers go to the regime and to fund unlawful programs in North Korea," Thornton told reporters.
U.S. officials said Wednesday's Diplomatic and Security Dialogue is a departure from the Strategic and Economic Dialogue of years past that covered a wide range of issues. Instead, they say this week's discussion reflects a "streamlined approach" and will "more narrowly focus on key security issues."
Another area in which Washington hopes to make headway is the disputed South China Sea, where Beijing's island building has raised concerns.
U.S. officials are calling for a binding code of conduct to resolve differences.
"All parties should freeze any construction or militarization of features that they have outposts on in this space and make room and create the conditions for diplomacy," said Thornton.

Q: JWK Key Creation with x5c and x5t parameters I have the need to generate a JWK with the following parameters:

*

*"kty": Key Type

*"kid": Key ID

*"use": "sig" Public Key Use

*"n": the modulus

*"e": "AQAB" the public exponent

*"x5c": X. 509 Certificate Chain

*"x5t": X.509 Certificate SHA-1 Thumbprint
Note:

*

*JWKs should contain a public key using RSA algorithm. RSA provides a key ID for key
matching purposes.

*Should contain X.509 certificate using both "x5t" (X.509 SHA-1 Thumbprint) and "x5c" (X.509
certificate Chain) parameters
The first 5 parameters ("kty", "kid", "use", "n", "e") are fairly straight forward and not an issue. However, for the "x5c" and "x5t" components, I am not sure how to generate these. It seems as I can create an x509 cert using tools such as the one found at https://www.samltool.com/self_signed_certs.php and I suppose the x509 cert generated there would be the x5c parameter. Is this correct and how would I generate a x5t (cert thumbprint) from this?
All help is appreciated.

A: Since you have neither a tool nor a language tagged, I assume that it is rather a general explanation of both parameters.
In x5c a certificate or certificate chain is stored, in x5t the associated thumbprint. A certificate or certificate chain is used to prove ownership of a public key, the thumbprint is a hash of a certificate used to identify/compare certificates.
The exact definition of both parameters is described in RFC 7517, JSON Web Key (JWK), chapters 4.7 x5c and 4.8 x5t:

*

*x5c:

The "x5c" (X.509 certificate chain) parameter contains a chain of one or more PKIX certificates [RFC5280].  The certificate chain is represented as a JSON array of certificate value strings. Each string in the array is a base64-encoded (Section 4 of [RFC4648] -- not base64url-encoded) DER [ITU.X690.1994] PKIX certificate value. The PKIX certificate containing the key value MUST be the first certificate. This MAY be followed by additional certificates, with each subsequent certificate being the one used to certify the previous one. The key in the first certificate MUST match the public key represented by other members of the JWK. Use of this member is OPTIONAL...

*

*x5t:

The "x5t" (X.509 certificate SHA-1 thumbprint) parameter is a base64url-encoded SHA-1 thumbprint (a.k.a. digest) of the DER encoding of an X.509 certificate [RFC5280]. Note that certificate thumbprints are also sometimes known as certificate fingerprints. The key in the certificate MUST match the public key represented by other members of the JWK. Use of this member is OPTIONAL.

Creation of a certificate:
A self signed certificate can (apart from the online tool you use) also be generated e.g. with OpenSSL. The following OpenSSL statement
openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4096 -nodes -keyout key.pem -out cert.crt -days 365

generates a private (unencrypted) PEM encoded 4096 bit key in PKCS#8 format (key.pem):
-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----
MIIJRAIBADANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFAASCCS4wggkqAgEAAoICAQDkWIfV9uL3XMay
...
OPAsywknGU1A/xTa3fFKO9KV6t/T9z3G
-----END PRIVATE KEY-----

and a PEM encoded certificate (cert.crt):
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIF4zCCA8ugAwIBAgIJAKSZ5oC4tblkMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBCwUAMIGHMQswCQYD
...
6aBMYeKy0dqjtZIlO8rm2Rialc7Qt+0=
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

For more options and details, see openssl req and the post How to generate a self-signed SSL certificate using OpenSSL?.
Note that a self-signed certificate is signed by the owner. Self-signed certificates are used on internal pages or in test environments. A CA-signed certificate, in contrast, is signed by a third-party, publicly trusted certificate authority (CA) like DigiCert or Thawte etc. used e.g. for public-facing websites, s. also here. A signed certificate is requested with a CSR.
Certificates, certificate chains, certificate authorities, etc. are part of a public key infrastructure.
Example use of x5c:
In Appendix B of RFC 7517, an example of the use of the x5c parameter is given. The DER encoded certificate is Base64 encoded and is contained in a JSON array:
{
    "kty":"RSA",
    "use":"sig",
    "kid":"1b94c",
    "n":"vrjOfz9Ccdgx5nQudyhdoR17V-IubWMeOZCwX_jj0hgAsz2J_pqYW08

}

Note that the line breaks within values are for display purposes only. The DER encoding results from the PEM encoding by removing header, footer and line breaks and Base64 decoding the rest, i.e. the Base64 decoded DER encoded certificate is the body of the PEM encoded certificate without line breaks.
For a certificate chain, the certificates are separated by commas, see e.g. RFC 7515, Appendix B, x5c.
Thumbprint/Fingerprint:
The thumbprint of a certificate is the SHA-1 hash of the DER encoded certificate and can be generated with OpenSSL as follows, s. also here:
openssl x509 -in cert.crt -noout -fingerprint

Here cert.crt is the PEM encoded certificate. For more details, see openssl x509.
Example: If the certificate from RFC 7517, Appendix B is used, the OpenSSL statement returns the following output:
SHA1 Fingerprint=E2:93:5E:9C:40:4B:BF:42:69:2C:87:6E:81:6C:50:90:EB:19:70:AD

i.e. the hex encoded thumbprint is: E2935E9C404BBF42692C876E816C5090EB1970AD or Base64url encoded: 4pNenEBLv0JpLIdugWxQkOsZcK0. The latter is the value of x5t:
"x5t":"4pNenEBLv0JpLIdugWxQkOsZcK0"

A: Thank you @Topaco for the last comment on your own answer. For anyone still confused, here's a complete flow with sample code:
In a JS environment with Buffer and crypto:
function generateX5t(certificate) {
  // Extracts everything between `-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----` and `-----END CERTIFICATE-----`
  // and remove line-breaks
  const data = certificate
      .replaceAll('\n', '')
      .match(/^(?:[A-Za-z0-9+/]{4})*(?:[A-Za-z0-9+/]{2}==|[A-Za-z0-9+/]{3}=)?$/gm)
      .join('');

  const sha1 = crypto.subtle.digest('SHA-1', Buffer.from(data, 'base64'));
  const hex = sha1.then((r) => Buffer.from(r).toString('hex'));
  const x5t = hex.then((r) => Buffer.from(r, 'hex').toString('base64url'));

  return x5t
}

const certificate = `-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

Sacramento Bee Editorial Board to Kamala Harris: You Should Have Known Better
Posted: Dec 07, 2018 11:14 AM
Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) accepted the resignation of one of her aides this week after reports revealed that he had been sued for "gender harassment" while working for her when she was California attorney general. The aide, Larry Wallace, reportedly harassed his executive assistant Danielle Hartley, asking her to crawl under his desk on a daily basis and to run personal errands for him. Hartley sued in December 2016, and walked away with a $400,000 settlement in May 2017.
Harris's office claims they did not know about the lawsuit or the harassment claims until recently. However, the Sacramento Bee poked some holes in that claim.
There are only a few possible interpretations here, and they are unpleasant. Wallace wasn't out on the periphery of Harris' staff; he was a senior aide she knew for 14 years — hardly a stranger. For Harris to flatly deny any knowledge of this settlement seems, shall we say, far-fetched. For the moment, let's take her at her word.
A second and equally troubling interpretation is that Harris isn't a terribly good manager, and that her staff was insulating her from information critical to the performance of her duties. This is hardly a propitious beginning to a presidential candidacy. (Sacramento Bee)
Harris has "fallen short" of her responsibility to lead, the editors conclude. She "owes the voters more than just a four word denial on the steps of the U.S. Senate."
Republican leaders were among those to cry hypocrite, particularly in regards to how Harris treated and judged then-Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.
For years, one of Democrat Kamala Harris's top advisers kept his job despite allegations of sexual harassment and a $400K settlement.
Harris, who claims to fight for women, only fired him yesterday after it was about to be exposed.https://t.co/gbURHWPW9C
