Police assembling 'picture' of bridge shooting spree
Andy Thompson
Authorities are winding down their investigation into the Fox Cities Trestle Trail bridge shooting by focusing on the background and mental health history of the gunman.
"We have investigators looking in every direction," Aaron Zemlock, community liaison officer with the Menasha Police Department, said of 27-year-old Sergio Valencia del Toro of Menasha, who killed three people in an unprovoked shooting spree on May 3 before turning the gun on himself.
Zemlock said a comprehensive report on what led to the shooting will be released in the near future. "We're trying to put a picture (of what happened) together," he said. "It's helpful for the community to have those answers."
Valencia del Toro's fiancee, Haylie Peterson of Menasha, said in the days following the shooting that Valencia del Toro suffered from "major depression" and was very irrational. They recently called off their wedding, police said, and got into an argument before 5 p.m. on May 3. The shooting occurred at 7:30 p.m.
Zemlock said Valencia del Toro's mental condition is being closely examined by police.
"We're looking into that and what, if any, diagnoses he had," Zemlock said, adding that police also want to analyze behavioral records from his military service.
Valencia del Toro previously served in the U.S. Air Force and recently enlisted in the U.S. Army, police said. Air Force records show Valencia del Toro was a senior airman when he was discharged from the service in 2014. The nature of his discharge was not released.
Killed on the Trestle Trail bridge were Jonathan Stoffel, 33, of Neenah; his daughter, Olivia, 11; and Adam Bentdahl, 31, of Appleton. Another victim, Stoffel's wife, Erin, 32, was shot three times. She survived and is recovering from her injuries.
Jack Levin, a professor of sociology and criminology at Northeastern University in Boston, said the shooting "looks like a textbook case" of a mass, or rampage, killer — with one major exception.
"He killed total strangers on a random basis," said Levin, a national expert on mass murders and serial killings. "Most rampage shooters target people they know well — their family members, their co-workers, their classmates. They don't (typically) target absolute strangers. Most rampage killers are selective and methodical."
Levin said mental illness and depression are common characteristics of mass killers, but stressed that there are other factors leading to homicidal outbursts.
"There are millions of Americans who are depressed, and they never kill anyone," he said. "It is true that most mass killers are chronically depressed, but depression by itself does not normally lead to violence."
Another common characteristic of mass killers is a tendency to be socially isolated and blame others for their problems, said Levin, who wasn't referring specifically to the Trestle Trail shooter.
"They don't have anybody around to get them through the tough times," he said. "That's very important."
Zemlock said it's likely that some questions about the shooting rampage will never be answered, given Valencia del Toro's death and the difficulty of determining what was going through his mind during the evening of May 3.
"That's an unfortunate reality," he said.

The experimental methodology is easily described. The elemental orchestration of trio BROM from Berlin has been researching self- generated and freely improvised compositions since 2010. The musical material is based on open compositions by saxophonist Alexander Beierbach. For him and his laboratory cohorts Jan Roder on bass and Christian Marien on drums, they are functioning as starting points for an improvisatory reaction/ interaction process characterized by expansive phrases, and explosions of sound.
In the music of trio BROM, the composed and improvised parts are closely interwoven. Over the course of longer passages, the composed source material is repeatedly taken apart and put together again, or layered in various combinations. The music evolves with each concert from a new context and in a different direction. Every time different starting points are created for the improvisations of the three musicians as well as for the interpretation of the composed material.
In March 2013 the trio's CD debut was released on gligg-records.
The CD "Cardboard Sea", released on Tiger Moon Records in July 2018, documents the exciting development of this ensemble's playing concept and band sound.

Mundo Deportivo reported this week that Barcelona had set up Christian Eriksen as a back up option had the Phillipe Coutinho deal fallen through. His representatives since hit back, claiming signing Eriksen would not have been easy.
The Dane has once again been in sparkling form for the North London club this season, most recently starring in an impressive 2-2 draw with Juventus in Turin.
It was widely reported that Eriksen was the contigency plan if Coutinho was not able to be pried away from Liverpool but representatives of Eriksen and Spurs made it very clear that he would not be the simpler and cheaper alternative they were hoping.
Coutinho was no easy option either; with Barcelona having to go through weeks of negotiations to strike a deal for the Brazilian and ultimately paying £142m for his services.
After selling Kyle Walker to rivals Manchester City in the summer, fans grew worried about the futures of key men like Harry Kane and Eriksen himself. However, chairman Daniel Levy will only sell the club's star men for premier prices.
Tottenham fans will no doubt be encouraged by the response to Barcelona's interest in Eriksen and he will no doubt be hoping that he can continue his development at Spurs and fans will be hoping the creative maestro will help their side end their 10 year trophy drought.

The editor-in-chief John Summerton doesn't just pick up any pitch, but on my 3rd attempt in September 2015 – with a promised story about our attempt to run the fastest time around the 100km "O" trek at Torres del Paine – it looked like I might have a story.

[:en]In the May issue of Men's Running there's a story of some of the planet's remotest people.
…So remote in fact that for 500 years they thought they were the only people left on Earth.
Yet regardless of outside influence, the runners of Rapa Nui take their sport incredibly seriously. They compete in the traditional hami loincloth and in some events carry a 20kg load of bananas, as featured below in the Hanga Vare Vare relay race. Iconically, the finish line to this race was at the foot of one of the island's distinctive moai statues – Ahu Riata.
The article and photos were written during a three week stay on the island during the Tapati festival: A cultural celebration of traditional sport, handicraft, dance, drama and music. Publications also at BBC Travel (slow to load) and Picture of The Day at The Guardian.

When you get your copy of the superlative independent UK running magazine, Ultra (issue 4) – you'll read how we fastpacked a four day recce of the circuit before attempting the run. Torres del Paine was named the 8th Wonder of The World in 2013 and we wanted to experience it in all its mystery and majesty before attempting to push rudely round in just one day.
There would be no time on the run to stop here, and I certainly wouldn't be carrying any decent camera gear during the attempt. It was now or never.
Just at that moment, a porter emerged on the pass. I set the camera to continuous shooting mode, wacked up the F-Stop to pull the glacier in and got the poor chap squatting at an angle where the composition was right. We dropped our heavy rucksacks, grabbed the vests we would use for the 1 day push and started jogging with that comically high knee style that can help imply movement in running shots. The porter clearly thought we were lunatics – but fired away.
So, no man leaning out of a helicopter in a harness – just a couple of guys trying to share the adventure they were about to set out on – round one of the most spectacular trails on Earth.
And when we really did begin, it was 2am Patagonia time. Out there, on those moonlit trails, there was an even more shocking surprise than that great glacier – It was waiting for us, silently in the dark….
Here's where you can read more.
In the middle of the Pacific Ocean, the Rapa Nui people believed for 500 years they were the only people left on Earth.
The BBC were interested in how the Rapa Nui's February festival of Tapati expresses the character and story of these remote island people. I spent three weeks on Easter island. This article for BBC Travel explores what I found.

Q: Compling Python Package via Cython i am fairly new to cython, does anyone know how to compile a python project via Cython (with relative low overhead), since I keep getting the following import error:

ImportError: No module named CythonRelated.testSource.MyClassObject

My test project structure is like this:
CythonRelated/
           setup.py
           testSource/
                  MainCythonTest.py
                  MyClassObject.py
                  MainCythonTest.pyx
                  MyClassObject.pyx

Where MainCythonTest imports class from MyClassObject module ( via
from CythonRelated.testSource.MyClassObject import myCustomObj
), initializes an object and calls an object method.
My setup.py looks like this:
from distutils.core import setup
from Cython.Build import cythonize
from distutils.extension import Extension

setup(
    name = "My cython test app",
    ext_modules = cythonize("testSource/*.pyx", include_path = ["."]),
    packages = ["CythonRelated", "CythonRelated.testSource"]
)

What am I missing?
Taking setup.py outside CythonRelated (and obviously updating the corresponding path of *.pyx files in cythonize) didn't help either

MyClassObject.py

import sys
print sys.version_info

class myCustomObj():
    def __init__(self, value):
        self.value_ = value

    def classInfo(self):
        print "calling class {0} object with value of  {1}".format(self.__class__.__name__,
                                                                  self.value_)

MainCythonTest.py

import pyximport; pyximport.install()

from CythonRelated.testSource.MyClassObject import myCustomObj

def myFunc():

    aObj = myCustomObj(12)

    bObj = myCustomObj(21)

    bObj.classInfo()

    aObj.classInfo()

    print "myFunc called"

myFunc()

A: You need to move the setup.py file anyway, as it cannot be part of a project that it "compiles".
Then, the main issue is that you lack __init__.py files in CythonRelated and CythonRelated/testSource. Without this file, the directory is not an importable Python module. With these two changes, I could pip install --user -e . the package and also run the program MainCythonTest.py

In a devastated Turkish town, teenagers dream of joining the Kurdish guerrillas
Students feel the Ankara government sees them as enemies, not citizens, and hundreds are joining the PKK
Constanze Letsch in Diyarbakir

Ahmet, 21, walks past a house where a man is smearing wet concrete on a wall riddled with bullet holes. A young girl balances over a massive mine crater that scars the street, filled with debris and muddy water.
"Look what this war has done to the neighbourhood," Ahmet says, greeting the girl with a nod. A member of the Civil Defence Units (YPS) – formerly known as the Patriotic Revolutionary Youth Movement (YDG-H) – Ahmet voices doubts about this new urban conflict in Turkey's mainly Kurdish south-east. "I believe in autonomy, but these methods are wrong, they hurt us."
Violence has escalated since a ceasefire between the government in Ankara and the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' party (PKK) broke down last July, leaving a tentative three-year peace process in tatters and reviving a conflict that has cost more than 40,000 lives since it began in 1984.
"So many of my friends have died here," says Ahmet, pointing vaguely at the narrow streets that now lie devastated. "Many of them were kids from Sur." According to the Turkish general chief of staff, 279 militants were killed in the clashes in the central Sur district of Diyarbakir, as well as at least 60 soldiers and police officers.

"Many believe they can take on the army, the Turkish state, because they carry a gun," he says. "But the rich people don't end up in the police or the army. It's always the poor."
In one of several attempts at self-rule in cities and towns across the region, activists announced local administrative autonomy for Sur in August last year. The government in Ankara responded with a violent crackdown, imposing blanket curfews on several towns, and Turkish security forces have deployed tanks and other heavy weaponry against armed Kurdish militants who have dug trenches and erected barricades.
Local residents are caught in the crossfire. According to a recent International Crisis Group report, at least 250 civilians are estimated to have been killed and more than 350,000 displaced. More curfews have been issued for the towns of Nusaybin, Sirnak and Yüksekova, where massive security operations are under way.
Map: Kurdish towns in Turkey under curfew
The conflict reached the heart of the country when suicide bombers killed 29 people in February, and another 37 in March in Ankara. The Kurdistan Freedom Falcons (Tak), a radical offshoot of the PKK, claimed responsibility for both bombings and vowed that attacks would continue in retaliation for security operations in the south-east.
In Sur, the military intervention officially came to an end on 10 March. The pro-government press declared victory, claiming that "Sur was cleansed of all terrorists", but Aynur, a teacher in a primary school in central Diyarbakir, fears that the long-term costs of these operations will be high.
"The children feel totally disconnected from their country. They feel that the government sees them as enemies, not citizens," she says. "Right now everyone is afraid, everyone is worried about staying alive. But once the dust will settle, in a year maybe or in two, fear will give way to anger."
Those familiar with the region have long warned of a radicalisation among young Kurds in Turkey. Seraffetin Elçi, a well-known Kurdish politician originally from Cizre, who died in 2012, spoke of "tempest children" when describing this coming, angrier generation.
"We are the last generation with whom you can find a solution [to the Kurdish issue]," he told a parliamentary commission only months before his death. "After us comes one so angry that it will be difficult for them to make peace with the Turks, because … that generation sees Turks only as the gendarme, the police, the prosecutor, the judge, as those that beat them up and oppress them."
Aynur agrees. In her class, she says, all the children sympathise with the Kurdish militants of the PKK's youth wing, the YPS, who are fighting government forces in the cities. Names of fighters appear as admiring doodles on notebooks, and during breaks children imitate the "defence" of a "barricade" in the yard.

"These fighters are their idols, their role models," the teacher explains. "The kids here are traumatised. First graders in Sur don't dream of becoming doctors or engineers; they want to become guerrilla fighters. Instead of additions, they learn how to tell the sound of a mine explosion from that of a missile. They are not afraid of the shooting any more. No child should have to grow up like this." In her eyes the entire school year is lost. Of the 800 students enrolled at her school, two-thirds are now absent, either because their families have fled or because they are too scared to leave the house.
"But school is everything for kids in Sur. There are no playgrounds, no parks in this neighbourhood," Aynur says. "Here they can take a breath, see their friends and play. It's good for their well-being. But that, too, is now finished."
Due to the violence in urban centres across the region, numerous school buildings have been shut down or turned into military headquarters or, due to pressure from Kurdish militants to boycott Turkish-language education, tens of thousands of children have been deprived of schooling. Parents and teachers in Sur say that those children who do still attend classes are often unable to concentrate, and that report cards do not reflect academic success.
Sakine, 35, a mother of three and a lifelong Sur resident, says that her eight-year-old son, a second grader, is still unable to read and write. "The teachers give them passing grades, but it's just a formality. Often there are no lessons at all," she says, dismayed. "My children don't believe me when I tell them that Kurds are equal to Turks. They are very angry. If they don't listen to their parents now, how will they listen to anyone when they are older?"
Many of those who fight on the barricades today might not remember the "dirty war" that raged in the 1990s, but they have grown up with family members' tales of forced disappearances, torture and humiliation at the hands of the authorities.
Turkish writer and publicist Ömer Laçiner adds the importance of socio-economic factors, citing high unemployment, especially among young people, and the utter lack of any perspective as reasons why they enlist with the PKK or their offshoots.
"Kurds have been disenfranchised for decades. They start their education at a disadvantage because of the lack of mother-tongue education. They often come from poor backgrounds. Many feel they cannot compete with Turks in the labour market," he says.
"When a kid from one of the poor neighbourhoods in the south-east sees how fighters are glorified on social media among friends, they also see an opportunity to finally be someone."
Unemployment rates in the south-east, especially among young people, have consistently been the highest in the country. Investment is utterly lacking. Scores of young men find only seasonal work in tourism in western provinces, but with the sector expected to plummet by 50% this season, prospects are increasingly grim.
Parents in Sur worry about their children joining the urban militants, many of whom are believed to be under age. "I don't let [my 14-year-old son] do the victory sign any more, I don't let him do all the [PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan] stuff. I know what a dangerous path that can lead down," said one man, a minibus driver originally from Bingöl. "Two boys from our village were killed in Sur. They were 16 and 17 years old. Both went to school in our neighbourhood. What for? I feel our youth is being fooled [by the PKK] in this fight."
Hundreds are said to have joined the PKK since the conflict flared again last summer. Selahattin Demirtaş, co-chair of the pro-Kurdish Democratic Peoples' party (HDP), warned the Turkish government against further curtailing legitimate Kurdish politics. "After 27 days of the curfew in Silopi, 500 young people went to the mountains [to join the PKK]. Not one single person joined the HDP, which means they don't see any hope in parliament."
"Young people fighting in the cities are the real victims, but they don't realise this," says Gürcan, stressing the lack of any deradicalisation programme in Turkey. "Toxic politics and extreme polarisation in Turkey alienate them from political processes. The PKK has direct communication channels to these kids, but Ankara simply does not."

Went with the standard color scheme, there were plenty of panels to paint in bone, but I didn't want to over-do it. I think it strikes the right balance overall, though!
I started the freehand work on 'em, the usual "XV" went on one side, and I'm planning on doing some runic script on the other side. Possibly do the nova on either side of the engine housing in the back, as well. Started pulling everything back out of the foam trays to do a family shot - there's a surprising amount done at this point!


Not how I expected to spend my 27th birthday yesterday (even though it was only going to be a standard work day anyway!). Holed up at home with a bung back having already seen a sports masseuse and chiropractor. Definitely improved since the appointment but I have a few more visits this week. Waving a sad goodbye to my pay packet! As my good friends have consistently reminded me, health is in the end irrelevant to price when things get bad. A timely reminder. I learned some interesting things about my neuromuscular system and have more exercises to do at home. That moonboot from November's injury has a lot to answer for in my book!!! Mid this afternoon I decided to take today with a pinch of salt and turn my day around. Sat outside looking at the beautiful garden, made myself a coffee and ate feijoas and a crème egg. Prior to that I was being the worst housebound injured person ever. Pouting, watching Dr Phil and pacing around my house even though I should have sat still with my back.
The past week was actually pretty good training wise so I am thankful I am well and truly tapering. Tuesday evening I ran a new track with a friend who has a faster pace than I do. What a great shorter run. A cracking pace too so it just goes to show training with people faster is beyond beneficial for every runner. A must do for my coming winter runs. Just need to find some faster runners who live here.
So in hindsight only two runs last week. I had started to feel sore and tired and I've learned many a harsh lesson on overtraining so decided to pull back. The past couple of days back problem I was reassured was not this. I guess just one of those things. I am chomping at the bit to get out tomorrow night after trying to let me muscles get over all the manipulation they put up with today. Something else I am glad I am overcoming more this year is not having a major freak out if I don't get in as many runs or as much mileage as I would have hoped during a particular week. Not a big deal – make the training quality when I can – the rest will and hopefully has followed.

JOHANNESBURG- On the 11th November, members from the Patriotic Alliance (PA) were summoned by concerned parents to intervene in the recent fights between youngsters from various school In Eldorado Park.
Minister Dwain Ponsonby and members from PA youth responded immediately by meeting with all the boys involved in their respective areas.
"On Friday, 13 November 2020; we managed to get them all in one venue to bring about peace and unity.
This was a major task that could go either way, however to our surprise both the young people and their parents agreed with our approach", the Patriotic Alliance said.
"After a lengthy discussion with all concerned and handshakes and hugs went around everyone understood what is needed. All those involved committed themselves to be part of the solution."
"As part of our intervention we will be having a peace soccer tournament on the 21st and 22nd November 2020 at the Eldorado Park Secondary School fields (Midas Sports Academy)."
This however will not be the only program done with them, as we need to ensure we assist in protecting the future of these young men.

What's your Game of the Decade for the 2010s??
OrganizationXV
January 1st, 2020, 03:04 PM
Every year we talk about the game of the year, but we have a great opportunity to go over the best things in an entire ten year span. That's half of some of our lives, for goodness' sake.
What's the most transcendental game that affected you on a core level?

Man. I don't think there was a game to come out in the last 10 years that did that for me. I guess the closest one would be Breath of the Wild because it made me completely rethink the Zelda formula. The last decade has brought some amazing games though.
she blows
My Game of the Decade: Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Mind you, this includes both expansions "Heart of Stone" and "Blood & Wine", which are both masterpieces in their own rite, but all three make for the same package and have been nothing short of extraordinary. Some of the most gorgeous graphics you can experience, one of the most content-rich open worlds with some of the most unique and fleshed-out missions in any fantasy RPG, even for side-quests. And if that's not enough, there's even an entirely integrated card-game that, if nothing else interests you, you can just go around, play against people, and collect cards as a hobby. Honestly, I don't think anything I can say about this game will do it justice, cause I know I haven't touched much despite how much I've played. It's really no contest for me; this was the best game I've ever played, let alone from the past decade.
Honorary mention: Stardew Valley
I never thought that I would find myself lost in a game about farming. Tediously hoeing, planting, watering, waiting for crops to grow, picking, and selling. Repeat. Day after day. Of course, in addition to this process, you can explore the town, talk to people, go fishing, mine for materials, fight creatures in a cave and loot treasure, dig for artifacts to donate to a museum for rewards... all this in a simple little game made by one guy. Considering all the games that stood out to me over the past 10 years, it's no surprise this one, in particular, comes second because there's just so much to love about it, if not just for the amount of love that's gone into it.

Soulsborne games, easily. Just a question of how I'd rank them.

...Uhhhh, that's a hard one, lol.
...Lot's of games I've had that kind of compete for that spot...
So I'll just nominate Super Mario Odyssey for me personally. It's the reason I wanted a Switch.
Kevin King Ghidorah
The Autistic Right Head
Pokemon S&M: The first game to ditch the ''Battle in 8 gyms to go to the Pokemon league" system. Not only that, we get to experience going to other worlds as well as meet aliens for the first time.
A definite memorable moment was unlocking the Z move for Incineroar, because his move was LOL epic.
I'd say Datk Souls 1 in particular, just because it was my first experience with the series. It was a frustrating, demanding game that made me come closer to smashing a controller than anything else BY FAR... but its lore was both expansive and subtle, the level design was ingenious, the exploration was satisfying, the grind made you feel like you were actually honing your skills as much as your stats, and there was a level of care and polish to everything important that made it feel like a true masterpiece. To me, this was the greatest game of the 360 era, it was the measuring stick that other games would be judged by, and it had the feel of a modern classic more than anything else, I think.
As far as a general audience pick, I would have to say Monecraft probably, starting from 1.8.0 onward I suppose. How could it be anything else? Minecraft was absurdly popular, as far as I know it pioneered the survival crafting genre, it helped make the careers of an entire swathe of YouTubers (which in turn helped YouTube itself become what it is today), and a generation of kids grew up on it. People have been playing it steadily for the entire span of the decade, and it stayed the most popular game on PC until Fortnight challenged it 8 years later.
Zemoco
I'm a Goddamn Super-Hero...
Either Dark Souls, DayZ, Minecraft, and Skyrim.
Kind of pointless to have a GOTD as superb games from all genres were released, and it's kind of not fare to compare games from the early 10s to last year.
GOTD should be based on games that heavily changed the landscape of games, and influenced countless games. Those are the ones.

EnemyOfDaState
I agree with Thar on the Witcher 3, game is about as close to a perfect RPG as you can get. Also the only game I have ever played where both DLC were as good or better then the main game.
Those games are heavily responsibles from the heavily regarded games we know today.
Dark Souls created a genre of video games. Fallen Order, The Surge, Nioh, Hollow Knight wouldn't exist without it.
DayZ was the beta form of the survival battle royal style of video games. It paved the way for PUBG and through extension, Fortnite, the biggest game in the world.
Skyrim is why many action games have open world and RPG elements, which countless games tried to ape. From the top of my mind, most of Ubisoft's output, Dragon Age Inquisition, Kingdom Come Deliverance, Witcher 3, even Breath of the Wild are heavily influenced by Skyrim.
Minecraft basically created Streamers. Most likely Pewdiepie wouldn't exist without it (And Amnesia I guess.)
GOTD should be the games that basically create genres or pave the way for countless heavy hitters, which I feel those 4 do.
The problem is that those four games simply improved on existing formula, though. Just because they did it well and got popular as a result, doesn't mean they defined genres or paved the way for other games. Not disputing that they don't each deserve a mention for "Game of the Decade" though, they all played critical roles in the industry. Just that Skyrim's existence shouldn't diminish the impact that Witcher 3 or BotW had.
Skyrimis why many action games have open world and RPG elements, which countless games tried to ape. From the top of my mind, most of Ubisoft's output, Dragon Age Inquisition, Kingdom Come Deliverance, Witcher 3, even Breath of the Wild are heavily influenced by Skyrim.
Creation will always be less important then innovation when it comes to entertainment, It doesn't really matter to me who did it first just who did it best.

For how Skyrim was marketed, Kingdom Come, BOTW, and Witcher 3 are objectively better games in terms of game mechanics, graphics, balance, interactivity. But if Skyrim didn't exist, they too (As we know them) wouldn't exist (And if Oblivion didn't exist, so to would Skyrim not exist).
If Minecraft didn't exist, perhaps streamers wouldn't take off. perhaps the ecelebs we know today would be different. Perhaps Pewdiepie would fade to obscurity and the opportunities that were presented to him would be lost. Hell, the Early Access Voxel based craze during the mid to late 10s can be heavily attributed to MC.
Definitely BR games would have happened at some point even without DayZ, but definitely Fortinte BR and Pubg would NOT exist without it.

That's not really fair though. For GOTD, how can you compare games released in 2010 to games that literally are only a few months old? Of course they would take the things that people didn't like and refine them. Of course they would have better graphics, better usability, better load times since they have access to today's resources. You'd basically be barring everything pre-2016-2017.
Though time seems to fly by nowadays, even most people would agree that 10 years is a crap ton of time, and in technology 10 years is basically the Fall of Rome.
GOTD should be the games that defined the decade. That if they poofed from existence, you'd have a vastly different landscape. For all the good that BOTW or Horizon Zero Dawn are, if they didn't exist, nothing would look that different.
If Code Vein and Hollow Knight ddin't exist, not much would really change.
But if SKyrim, DayZ, Minecraft, or Dark Souls didn't exist, hundreds of games would poof from existence with them ( and the ones who didn't would look vastly different).
Zemoco to be fair, by that standard, any games made in 2019 couldn't possibly live up to the games made before, say, 2012.
I'd tend to agree with you, but I can see EodS's point of view too. Witcher 3 is infinitely better than Skyrim, on a technical level, even if the impact was less.

White Privilege is John McCain Playing a Video Game During a Hearing on Going to War in Syria
Irresponsible. Lazy. Traitor. Bad citizen. Incompetent. Un-American. Disloyal. Not patriotic. Impeachable. Treasonous.
Those are the labels that would be applied to a black congressperson or senator--or perhaps, even one who is a Democrat--caught playing a game of poker while sitting through a hearing about, what are quite literally life and death matters, if the United States should intervene militarily in Syria.
In order to both survive and remain sane in a country where racism has dominated life chances and life outcomes, black folks have historically been taught by parents, teachers, and other mentors that we had to be at least twice as good as a white person, one with less than comparable skills, to get half as far in the world.
Such advice is true but incomplete--whiteness and white privilege also allows a given white person to be significantly less qualified, and to have moments of incompetence, while still retaining goodwill and an assumption of credibility and trust, that others who are not part of said racial group are not afforded or allowed.
Yes, white privilege is about the "big things" in life. But, white privilege as a social force is perhaps most pernicious in how it manifests in day-to-day ways, such as through unstated assumptions about one's ability, trustworthiness, and authority.
White privilege works through double-standards too. For example, the Right-wing media is attempting to gin up a faux controversy about President Obama because he put his foot, like so many other presidents before him, on the Oval Office desk.
And just imagine how the Right-wing media would respond to a black or brown John McCain playing a video game, and perhaps even gambling, while serious matters of war and peace are being debated by the United States Senate.
Such a moment would be Birth of a Nation revisited on Fox News and Right-wing talk radio:
John McCain suffered in Vietnam as a prisoner in the infamous Hanoi Hilton. One would think his horrible and hellish experience there would make him especially sensitive to the high stakes involved in sending American forces to attack Syria.
It would appear such empathy is not present. Old men declare war; young men and women die and fight in them.
White privilege lowers the bar for his behavior. It also provides insulation for any type of criticism, as being white, male, a veteran, and of a certain age, provides an a priori assumption of one's "Americanness" and "patriotism".
And because whiteness and white privilege are precisely about race and citizenship, such buffers are a type of "money in the bank", both material and psychological, that does not apply equally across the color line.
White folks can be distracted and play video games in Congress while the war drums beat; Barack Obama, the country's first black President, was heckled and harassed while giving the State of the Union Speech.
The lie of post racial America in the Age of Obama reveals itself in many ways both small and large. Some folks by virtue of skin color are given respect. Other folks by virtue of their skin color are denied it...even if they are President of the United States of America.

QUOTE: "...or perhaps, even one who is a Democrat..."
Most assuredly. IOKIYAR is definitely the rule.
Can you imagine what would have happened if a Democrat had screamed "you lie!" as W Bush was giving a State of the Union Address? They'd be forced to resign instead of lauded as a hero (and unlike Obama, W Bush really was lying).
When Clinton was in office, the GOP had no problem with impeachment during wartime. In fact, when asked about the hazards of impeachment while our troops were in the fields at Kosovo, the GOP insisted it was our duty to them that we uphold the constitution. "Even the appearance of impropriety" was the rule for Congressional investigation (translation: someone somewhere said Clinton did something shady). Then W came in office and suddenly it was treason to even question the president at all during a time of war. In the words of Bill O'Riley, who certainly reflected the mood of the time, we either needed to get behind the president or "shut up", else our patriotism comes into question. Then Obama comes into office and we're back to investigating everything and talk of impeachment even while we're still fighting W's wars.
When Clinton was in power, the rule on deficits were "OMG, where did all this debt come from? Clinton, give up your agenda and concentrate on reducing the debt". Then the GOP came into power and W Bush ran against the surplus "that's not the government's money" and "deficits don't matter". Then Obama comes to office and we're back to "OMG! Where did all this debt come from? Quick, slash and burn the safety net now!"
When the GOP wins an election (2004 or 2010), even if it's a close election (2004), the talk all about the media, not just Republican circles, is all about "mandates" and "political capital" and "Democrats need to come to the center" (as if they're not already centrist enough). When the Democrats win an election (2006, 2008, 2012), that's when the media talks of "biparisanship" and "reaching across the aisle".
I won't defend Anthony Wiener He's a narcissistic douche, but when he had a sex scandal, he was run out of office. Sen. Vitter is still in office. AFAIK, there have been no calls for his resignation.
A good test on whether its IOKIYAR or IOKIRW is how the few black GOP politicians are treated. I don't know the answer to that but whatever it is, it would be telling. It wouldn't surprise me if both rules are practiced.
chauncey devega said...
Clinton would have been run out of time. I love the accepted as fact narrative that the GOP is the party of "national defense", as such they get a pass on their mess. if you repeat something enough times people will believe it. Never mind that there is so much overlap between the 2 parties to begin with. The efforts to find any sort of controversy, even one about a black president putting his foot on a desk, is very revealing about the racial pathologies at work on the White Right.
Vic78 said...
They treated the RNC chairman Michael Steele shabbily after he helped the party make their gains in 2010. You should've saw how they talked about Miss America in Illinois.
At least the feet on the desk was a real event (though something many other presidents have done). By contrast, could someone please explain to me what that "scandal" is supposed to even be? What's the allegation exactly? What do they want? Video footage of Obama parachuting into Benghazi while personally leading a commando team to rescue the ambassador?
You're right that they're looking for anything at this point, even if the source of the outrage isn't even real.
The scandal is that Obama is black and president.
IMO: They just needed a token in the immediate aftermath of the first elected black president being a Democrat. Once he served that purpose, they found someone who's pigment they were more comfortable with.
I imagine they'll use the same tactic when the first woman president is elected.
DanF said...
If Congress votes "No" on military adventurism in Syria, and Obama bombs them anyways, the GOP will become unified and relentless in their howler monkey chorus to have him impeached. It will approach a level of viciousness unseen in the Lewinski scandal as the right tries to "take back their (white) country!!!!"
Ooooo, what a dilemma.
They hate Obama but they love war. What will they do in that situation?
My prediction is they'll go with impeaching him for Benghazi.
Maike Hudson said...
It's white Republican privilege, to be precise.
It was a big deal when he did an interview without his tie on.
Michael Paul Goldenberg said...
I think there are two points to be made: one, McCain's mind is already made up on this issue, so he probably was doing something that accurately reflects what he felt he needed to be doing: anything but listening.
Two, I hope that a black legislator doing the same thing wouldn't have lost "thousands of dollars" as McCain said he did.
More seriously, Jon Stewart took this whole thing apart with his usual laser-like wit. Check it out if you missed it.
Miles_Ellison said...
That sums up the essence of American politics.
Gable1111 said...
If they had caught on film a black senator or congressman doing this, for the bigot crowd; the Limbaughs, Palins, Beck, Fox News, etc., it would have been every holiday there is rolled into one. They would have revved up the hate machine so high a new cottage industry of stereotyping would have emerged.
The Sanity Inspector said...
Doesn't seem to me that McCain is getting a pass for this. In addition to being slammed on the Left, he's been lambasted even at Breitbart and Twitchy.
A broke clock is right twice a day...get the pun w. Breibart apparently. Small things and the universe may on occasion converge to the middle.
Christmas in September for the right wing noise machine :)
I will check out Stewart. I must be one of the few folks who does not find him entertaining. Dude is razor sharp, I just don't vibe w. his style of delivery.
Every successive president adds to the frame for the next one. Bush's contribution to the frame was war for political benefit of a president or party is legitimate. And we as a society accepted it. The frame is supported by money in politics, and in the end, no matter how "transformational" a president might imagine him or herself to be, they cannot step outside of that frame, without severe consequences (JFK?).
Obama, for all of his good intentions, is constrained by the frame. To what extent his actions are a result of that constraint, or his own wants, we don't know.
It seems clear that, there is more to the desire to want to go into Syria than is being said, given the facts. They're saying Assad has killed 100,000 people. No, 100,000 on both sides have died in a civil war, some civilians but many combatants. They say look at the horrific pictures of these 1400 people gassed to death; but how does that sound in the face of 100,000 deaths? Did we not care about that? They're not making what should be obvious points to make when reporting this story that (a) Assad waited to use gas while the UN inspectors were on site, the same inspectors Assad himself invited in; and (b) the Syrian government was winning against the "rebels"; why would they need to use gas then?
Even more concerning is the fact that, several weeks ago, there was evidence that gas had been used. But they could not get around the evidence that pointed to the "rebels" being the culprits. If we have such a "moral obligation" to prevent the use of chemical weapons, why didn't we hear calls for bombing them?
If there is a "moral" concern to prevent poisonous gas from being used on innocent civilians, it seems the best way to do that is not to "degrade" the Syrian government's capability to use them, but to stop the fighting altogether. Why aren't we hearing calls for that, instead of the narrow "stop the dictator from gassing his own people?"
The result of the frame that created this situation is that people are tired of war. Polls show democrats, republicans and independents are not for it. But war is business, and this is why the frame supports it, regardless of what the people want or not.
But here's the biggest irony: we say we want to democratize the world, and we're "ignoring our own people" when it comes to starting these damned wars.
As for Obama, I get the sense that he is being dragged along by events and the frame. Being a president who happens to be black is but another handicap he has in trying to deal with the frame. And while it initially appeared to be a good move politically to put the ball in congress' court, the outcome was probably preordained to begin with. Hence McCain's game playing -- hell, why should he "engage" when we all know the outcome anyway? All that they're doing in congress now is just the kabuki.

at least he showed up for this one.
remember during all that Susan Rice/Benghazi bullshyt when she offered to come to the Senate and answer any questions they had in a private session with Senators and Country Last couldn't even bother to show up?

I can tell you that White nationalists hate John McCain and the Bushes. We do see them as no better than the blacks depicted in the Legislature scene of Birth of a Nation.

Geritol John McCain is another screw-up son of privilege. He graduated 5th from the bottom of the Naval Academy. He got accepted into flight school because of his father and grandfather's naval status. He would go on to cost the navy millions in wrecked planes.
When he was captured in Vietnam (some say because of a pilot error) he would again receive preferential treatment. He spilled his guts to his Vietnamese adversaries. He was dubbed "Songbird McCain" by his military colleagues because of it. A Cuban psychiatrist who interviewed McCain while he was captured, described him as a sociopath. McCain has spent his time in the Senate quashing and oppressing the speech of other POW's and their families. I wonder why?
The Mainstream Media is responsible for the career McCain has enjoyed for the past 40 some years. He has done nothing for the people of Arizona, nor is he sane enough to serve. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't trust him to flush a toilet. He has hit people on the Senate floor, threw temper tantrums, slapped a POW's widow, told racist, sexist, and homophobic jokes. The media has covered up every abhorrent thing this man has done. That includes his behavior in the POW Camp, and the criminality in the Keating Five. However, their greatest cover-up appears to be his absolute incompetence when selecting that deranged Snowbilly for the vice-presidency of the United States. Yet the Mainstream Media treats him like he won the election. He is sought after on every move President Obama makes. Now that's really white privileged. And my or my have we seen white privilege at its zenith during the black man's presidency.

The most fucked up thing about this is that the only comparable thing to this phenomenon is something cops like to say all the time: "We can make a million mistakes. They only get to screw up once."... I think that says it all on how black people are still treated in this country. We only get to screw up once, and that's a wrap.

Ozone Hole Might Heal by 2050
By Staff, Wire Reports 2006-05-21T10:23:00Z
The ozone hole over Antarctica in 2005.

The ozone hole over the Antarctic is likely to begin contracting in the future and might disappear by 2050 because of a reduction in the release of chlorofluorocarbons and other ozone-depleting gases, according to a team of Japanese scientists.
That would be a good thing. Ozone in the upper atmosphere shields the planet from excess ratiation. The hole, monitored by satellites and ground stations since its discovery in the 1980s. is an area of depleted ozone, thought to have been created by chlorofluorocarbons released into the atmosphere.
Chlorofluorocarbon levels in the Earth's atmosphere have been declining since the mid-1990s due to international efforts to reduce emissions.
The new findings are based on a series of numerical simulations carried out by Eiji Akiyoshi of the National Institute for Environmental Studies, near Tokyo, using projected emissions of chlorofluorocarbons and other gases blamed for the ozone hole.
According to a report posted Friday on the institute's Web site, the hole is at its largest now but is likely to gradually start contracting around 2020 and disappear by around 2050.
The team's findings are in line with research by other scientists, including a favorable outlook from U.S. scientists published in the journal Nature earlier this month.
Some, however, have suggested the hole won't heal until much later because old refrigerators and air-conditioning systems—many in the United States and Canada _ are still releasing ozone-killing chemicals. Both countries curbed those chemicals in newer products.

Q: Im not able to get to "/campgrounds/:id/comments/new" I'm doing a  course on Nested Routes. And I'm not able to get past this error
When I go to the path "/campgrounds/59c00fca35776136ee26eb93/comments/new"
I get the error:
Cannot GET /campgrounds/59c00fca35776136ee26eb93/comments/new
This is my app.js code
    //=========================================================
    //COMMENT ROUTES
    //========================================
    app.get("/campgrounds/:id/comments/new", function(req, res) {

        res.send("this ll be the new comment route");
    });
    app.listen(process.env.PORT, process.env.IP, function(req, res) {
        console.log("Plugging in the Pikachu....");
    });

A: There seem to be one thing here that needs to be done and one thing that should be done:

*

*You need to declare the ":id" as you are running your GET call as a variable whose value is equal to var id = req.params.id
This will pull the "59c00fca35776136ee26eb93" id value out of the path and parse it into something the computer will recognize.

*You should declare another variable as the object to send in your res.send() script. i.e. var message = "id + will be the new comment route"
res.send(message)
Hope this helps!


Anyone who suffers from insomnia will know there's nothing worse than feeling sleep deprived.
In the quest for how to get a good night's sleep you may have tried everything from sleeping aids to sleep therapy and sleep meditation, but what if the position of your bed is actually stopping you from getting your forty winks?
Well, New York based feng shui consultant Laura Cerrano believes that's why many of us are actually suffering from seriously bad nights sleep.
Laura believes the way we arrange our furniture hugely impacts both the quality and quantity of sleep we receive, and in order to ensure you really are getting a good night's sleep it's important to make sure you leave a symmetrical patch of space on either side of your bed.
So those of you who push your bed up against a wall or have it right by the door may want to re-think your feng shui.
'Even if you could only spare an inch of space between the wall and bed, it's better than nothing. Beside that, having two side table and lamps is a great go-to general recommendation because it related to balance,' Laura told www.mydomaine.com.
'Sometimes the dimensions of a bedroom don't allow for this arrangement, so holding the intention of creating space is essential,' she explained.
Laura also encouraged getting rid of clutter and rubbish, limiting the number of mirrors in a bedroom and purchasing a rug in order to 'create a balance between yin (soft) and and yang (hard)' furnitures.
'An ideal layout would be to have a clear vantage point of the bedroom door from the bed, while not being 100% in alignment of the doorway,' Laura recommends.
Well, all that talk about beds has made us rather tired.

Frekhtman & Associates represent those who are injured due to the negligence of New York City Municipal Authority. Call NY Municipal Attorney now for a free legal consultation if you are injured and seeking justice in any type of premise accident.
Cases against the City of New York may include:
Slips, Trips, and Falls on a public sidewalk
Accidents on NYC subways or buses against the New York City Transit Authority (NYCTA)
Accidents on New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) buildings and premises
Accidents or Medical Malpractice of New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation (NYCHHC) facilities
Accidents on New York City Board of Education premises & other NYC related agencies and or departments
The most common case against New York City is a trip and fall due to a defective pedestrian sidewalk. In 2003, the law changed with the enactment of NYC Council Law 7-210 which transferred legal liability from the City of New York to the adjoining landowner.
New York City Municipal Laws
Prior to 2003, a person who fell due to a defective sidewalk would usually sue the City of New York. After 2003, this same person will usually sue the adjoining landowner in front of whose property he or she was caused to fall. There is an exception for one, two, or three family owner occupied homes meaning trips and falls in front of these premises are still the liability of New York City.
The most important thing to remember with respect to New York City claims is that a Notice of Claim setting forth details of the accident must be filed within NINETY (90) days of the accident. A lawsuit must be filed within 1 year and 90 days of the accident. Often the City of New York will schedule a hearing pursuant to General Municipal Law section 50(h), known as a 50(h) hearing wherein an attorney will conduct a brief question and answer session with the claimant which is similar to a deposition. After the 50(h) hearing has been held, a lawsuit may be filed. If no 50(h) hearing is requested within 30 days of filing the Notice of Claim, a lawsuit may be filed.
With respect to New York City sidewalk cases, it is important to order a Big Apple Map which can be obtained from the New York City Department of Transportation pursuant to the Freedom of Information Law or FOIL. The map shows markings and a legend identifies what type of defect each marking represents. Defects include a raised sidewalk, broken curb, uneven sidewalk, hole or hazardous depression, pothole, and a number of other defects.
How Our Attorneys Can Help
A map can also be obtained from the Big Apple Pothole Protection Committee which non for profit agency also provides witnesses who can interpret the map to testify at trial. Our law firm has successfully resolved cases with the City of New York. In 2008, we settled a trip and fall case on a public sidewalk where a tree caused a dangerous raise in a sidewalk flag. This defect caused our client to fall and fracture her hip. The matter was resolved for $450,000. In 2007, we also settled a cracked sidewalk case against the City of New York for $275,000. Accidents involving the New York City Transit Authority include train collisions, bus accidents, construction accidents, and slip and falls. In April of 2007, our firm won a jury verdict for $2,800,000.00 for a laborer who was installing tiles on the wall of a subway station which was being renovated from top to bottom. During his work, a large electrical light, which was poorly affixed, fell from the ceiling striking him on his head and causing a brain injury. Frekhtman & Associates has won cases against the New York City Board of Education for negligent supervision including a settlement for $100,000 in allowing a broken desk/ chair combo to remain in a classroom where a student fell to the ground sustaining injuries.

Jackson Hospital is addressing the national and local economic downturn by combining departments and streamlining operations, according to president and CEO Donald G. Henderson.
Like most hospitals in Alabama, Jackson Hospital has seen an increase in bad debt and charity care, as a greater number of residents are unemployed and without health benefits. To that, he added, more people are declining elective medical procedures, and postponing surgeries due to an uncertain economy.
Consolidation of the resource management and health information management departments into clinical resource management. It is anticipated that this move will better position the hospital to adapt to what is anticipated to be a "pay-for-performance" environment for community hospitals in the future.
Consolidation of clinical engineering and plant operations into the facilities management department.
Phasing out of the employee night nursery, a service used by a very small number of employees.
Transitioning of security officers to 12-hour shifts. According to security director Terry Reid, this will afford more officers per shift on premises each day.
Because of the seasonal nature of hospital admissions, one patient care unit on the third floor of the hospital will be closed for the summer, and is planned to reopen in the fall when admissions volumes improve. Staff from this floor will be assigned to other nursing units.
In other departments, clerical duties are being combined, sometimes resulting in the elimination of non-patient care positions.
One major change has been a redesign of the nursing model on the medical and surgical care units. Cynthia Dixon, RN the hospital's vice president for patient care, reported the new model places more caregivers at the bedside in a team approach to nursing. Members of each team include a registered nurse, licensed practical nurse, technician and unit secretary.
"We believe this new system will continue to increase patient and family satisfaction with more hands-on care for the patient," said Dixon.
After several years of planning, Jackson recently opened new facilities on its hospital campus, including a new surgery center and imaging center. "The opening of these new centers has been very successful for our hospital. As the volumes of these new centers have increased, it has allowed us to reorganize staff at the main hospital to focus more on inpatient care," said Henderson.
"Careful consideration was given as each department was evaluated for greater efficiency," said human resources director Gilbert Darrington. "In the few cases where employees were not able to be placed within the hospital system, they were offered severance packages and full reimbursement of accrued earned time off (ETO)." A total of 17 full-time equivalents (FTE) were reduced from the hospital's workforce.

Apple says Australian iOS device attacks not caused by iCloud breach
Cody Lee ∙ Updated December 2, 2016
On Monday, a number of iOS and Mac users came forward with complaints that their devices had been remotely locked by hackers. In most of the cases, a message appeared via Find My iPhone on the locked devices, demanding payment for the hack to be reversed.
As far as we can tell, the attacks have been concentrated on Mac and iOS products in Australia. And among the various theories of how the hackers were able to set a remote lock has been the fear that iCloud was breached. But Apple says it hasn't been compromised…
In a statement provided to ZDNet provided to ZDNet, Apple says:
Apple takes security very seriously and iCloud was not compromised during this incident. Impacted users should change their Apple ID password as soon as possible and avoid using the same user name and password for multiple services. Any users who need additional help can contact AppleCare or visit their local Apple Retail Store.
We of course have always recommended that users make sure to set a strong unique password for their Apple ID, as it grants access to a wide range of services and devices. We also suggest enabling Apple's new two-step authentication feature, which you can do here.
Still have questions? This thread on Apple's support forums is following the issue.

This simple DIY Granite Cleaner is easy to make at home, and will help you preserve your beautiful granite counters for years!
Granite is a pretty popular countertop choice with new homes – at least in the Phoenix area. It might just be the first choice for new homeowners all across the U.S. Many of us swoon for granite.
Although it is expensive, it's very hard and durable and can resist stains and scratches. It allows for a counter top that lasts homeowners for years.
But… although it can last a long time, that doesn't always mean that the granite can't be damaged. Granite is harder and less porous than other countertop varieties. That doesn't necessarily mean that it is not affected by really strong cleaning chemicals.
There are a myriad of reasons to avoid commercial cleaners. They can be harmful for your health in the sense that they can greatly affect your hormones, cause respiratory distress, contribute to asthma, and as a result, have a long lasting effect on your immune system.
When your skin is the largest organ, these chemical laden cleaners should take a backseat to more natural items that can do just as good of a job if not better – without the cost or worry.
Polished stone countertops are treated with sealers when they are installed. Much like the sealers that are used on tile floors, they protect the counter from damage that chemical cleaners can cause over an extended period of time.
You'll want to stay away from things like ammonia, lemon juice (acidic), harsh or abrasive cleaners, bleach or things with vinegar. Unlike lemon or lime juice, citrus essential oils are not acidic – making them a wonderful addition to your cleaners.
Just remember to use glass when you incorporate citrus oils because they can eat away at plastic. The plastic sprayer is typically made out of a much stronger plastic. However, the actual bottle is usually made of a less durable plastic making them prone to break down with the use of lemon essential oil.
That is because plastics are made of petrochemicals that react adversely to citrus oils.
This simple DIY granite cleaner is an inexpensive and effective solution on your counters. Try to wipe up spills as soon as you see them, never cut things directly on your counter and your counters will last you a very long time.
Unlike using lemon juice, which is acidic, lemon essential oil is NOT acidic – and is a wonderful boost for cleaning your granite counters.
Mix all of those items together and store in a glass spray bottle similar to this here. If you are forego the lemon essential oil you can use plastic (citrus oils should not be used in plastic).

The character Rosita Espinosa is played by the actress Christian Serratos who is an American actress with Mexican descent. She joined the cast of The Walking Dead in the fourth season playing the role of Rosita Espinosa, a tough and beautiful character. Her debut was on the 10th episode, "Inmates". Most of you may know her from her role in the Twilight films where she won the "Young Supporting Actress" award in the best performance in a feature film category at the 30th Young Artist Awards. It's great to see her play a strong Latina in The Walking Dead series, hopefully she can stay alive for the rest of the series.

Most cooling systems in buildings use a refrigerant vapour in a cycle of compression and expansion. In part of the cycle the refrigerant is hot and in another part the refrigerant is cold. When required the hot part of the system can be used for heating and the cold part for cooling. Some of these systems provide as much cooling and heating energy as the energy used to provide it in the first place and are described as having a coefficient of performance (COP) of 1; others consume no more energy yet provide twice as much heating or cooling and therefore have a COP of 2. As the vapour changes from hot to cold in virtually all systems there is a loss of useful energy. The loss is caused by the systems inability to make use of the energy in the expanding vapour; this loss is equal to about 25% of the energy input to the system.
Our turbine technology makes use of the expanding vapour and our compressor has less friction in the compression process. These two substantial improvements and the ability to vary the flow rate at a constant speed and pressure, result in a COP of about 5 over a range of heating and cooling output values.
There is environmental pressure to replace vapour refrigerants with air in automotive air conditioners. This is because in arduous automotive applications some of the vapour refrigerant (generally a fluorocarbon) leaks and escapes into the atmosphere. The COP of an air cycle system is generally less than 1 and the energy must be provided by the vehicle's engine which itself produces undesirable environmental emissions. If our vapour compression system with a COP of 5 is used, the environmental consideration turns to favour using vapour refrigerants.

Being a registered sex offender can indicate the general public has the right to know who you really are and in your geographical area
Every state (as required by federal legislation) keeps a database of men and women surviving in the continuing state who have been convicted of intercourse offenses. Every state places at the least a few of that database on the web for the general public to check.
States differ when it comes to just how sex that is many are publicly listed and just how much info is supplied. In California, as an example, somebody who's committed "assault with intent to rape" (like Brock Turner) gets their title, image, additionally the city where he is residing noted on the website, yet not their address or workplace. (Sex offenders convicted of more severe crimes in Ca, nonetheless, do manage to get thier details detailed.)
In a few states and towns, cops are permitted or expected to inform the next-door neighbors every time a sex offender moves in to the neighbor hood. When they aren't, next-door neighbors often part of to accomplish the workin work — and, frequently, encourage the individual to go elsewhere. (It really is theoretically unlawful to utilize the intercourse offender registry to discriminate against intercourse offenders in such things as housing or jobs, but there's an exception if you should be protecting the security of a "person in danger.") Offenders will also be expected to alter their enrollment in a few days of going somewhere else or changing jobs.

Shelter, 1912. Sandstone with iron roof structure and stone slate covering.
The Greenway shelter, Sunnyhurst Wood, of 1912 is listed at Grade II for the following principal reasons: *	Architectural interest: it is a well-designed structure in a rustic vernacular revival style that utilises good quality materials with a high level of attention to detail; *	Degree of survival: it survives largely intact and compares favourably with listed examples of shelters and bandstands; *	Historic interest: in common with the related structures in Sunnyhurst Wood, it attests to the widespread rise of leisure activities in the late-C19 and early-C20 and which, provided via the philanthropy of notable local people, together preserve a set of contemporary public inscriptions; *	Group value: as one of a group of listed Edwardian, municipal park structures, it benefits from a historic, spatial and functional group value, strengthened further by its relationship to the Grade II registered park itself.
Sunnyhurst Wood, a wooded valley with a brook running through it, was purchased by Darwen Corporation in the early C20 for the creation of a public park to commemorate the Coronation of Edward VII in 1902. Funds were raised by public subscription, through the efforts of Alderman John Tomlinson, Mayor of Darwen (1900-1902) amounting to £2600. Work on the park began in 1902 and involved the construction of a number of paths, additional planting and minor works to the stream. The opening ceremony took place on 2nd July 1903 performed by Mrs Shorrock, the Mayoress. Within a few months of opening, improvements were being made and benefactors were providing further amenities at their own expense; these included a fishpond, a shallow lake for paddling and toy boat sailing, an aviary and a sundial.
This stone-built shelter was presented by Charles Spencer Greenway in 1912. The Spencer family owned the Dobmeadow printworks. The slope immediately south of the shelter was remodelled with a semi-circular stone 'plinth' which could be used for seating as a bandstand, looking across the wide flat clearing where the concerts and entertainments were held. The shelter was used for the popular Café Chantante entertainments in the years around the First World War.
DESCRIPTION: octagonal structure with a conical stone slate roof comprising eight solid tooled and coursed stone columns with Tuscan-style capitals. The columns support a series of convex timber beams and eight radial joists support an octagonal king post with closely abutted rafters which show at the eaves. There is a perimeter stone kerb, now flush with the ground level. An inscription on the external face of one of the columns records the date August 1912 and the name of the benefactor in cursive script.
