Multi-million dollar cocaine haul made at Guyana post office
CMC – An investigation has been launched following the discovery of just over one pound of cocaine in five sealed brown envelopes with Christmas cards at a post office in Georgetown on Friday.
The police report that the cocaine-filled cards were destined for Brooklyn, New York.
In a statement, the Customs Anti Narcotics Unit (CANU) said the cocaine carried a total weight of 647.6. grams with an estimated street value of GUY$3.4 million (one Guyana dollar = US$0.004 cents).
There have been no arrests, but the investigations are still ongoing as, according to CANU officials, they are still trying to track down the sender.
Venezuelan president makes surprise visit to Cuba on anniversary of Castro's death
CMC – Five years after the death of Fidel Castro, the president of Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro, made a surprise appearance to Cuba on Thursday for the inauguration of the Fidel Castro Ruz Centre, which preserves the late president's writings.
Maduro, who had not travelled to Cuba since December 2019, accompanied his Cuban counterpart Miguel Diaz-Canel at the ceremony, which was broadcast by state television.
The Fidel Castro Ruz Centre is the first and only Cuban building to carry his name.
A law, passed a month after his death in 2016, bans the naming of institutions, squares, parks, roads or other public places after the former president and Communist Party leader.
Also banned, following Castro's wishes, is the erection of monuments, busts, statues or plaques in his name or image – though this has not prevented the proliferation of murals and placards honouring the late leader on the streets of Havana.
Castro fell ill in 2006 and handed power to his brother and fellow revolutionary fighter Raul.
Castro led the revolution that ousted dictator Fulgencio Batista in 1959 and is credited with creating Cuba's social welfare system, which provides healthcare and education for all.
Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel, who took over from Raul Castro in 2018, tweeted that Fidel Castro's office at the seat of government – the Palace of the Revolution – "is as he left it on his last day there".
Several injured as violence spreads across French Caribbean islands
CMC – Ten police officers were injured and several journalists shot at as protests sparked by COVID-19 vaccine measures spread across Martinique.
This follows more than a week of unrest on the nearby French island of Guadeloupe.
According to police reports, five officers were injured in Martinique and five others were injured when objects were thrown at them during operations.
Concerning the journalists – four were shot at by men on a motorbike as they worked at Fort-de-France, but none were injured.
French government spokesman Gabriel Attal said the unrest was "totally unacceptable" and promised that the rioters will be "dealt with".
The protests on Guadeloupe were started by hardline opponents of compulsory COVID-19 vaccination for health workers and firefighters on the island – a measure already implemented in mainland France.

I've been out of the loop a while. My little brother likes the white Misfortune cat, any chance you'll be getting it? Is it going to be a zerg rush?
We've got some on order....hard to say when they'll be here exactly or how fast they'll go. I think they are supposed to ship soon though.

https://www.ctpost.com/news/article/Most-of-our-decisions-are-based-on-partial-65.php
Most of our decisions are based on partial knowledge
Published 5:45 pm EDT, Monday, August 31, 2009
By John Hourihan
Perception is everything.
We make our decisions about world and national events based on perception. The only problem is we never have all the facts, so we go with what we perceive to be true based on incomplete information.
Iran, Korea, Iraq, Afghanistan, our economy: We never know all of what is happening. It is why presidents look stupid to us and why partisan political spin works so very well.
Let me show you what I mean.
We called Bob "The Robot" because of how he moved to the music while he was driving, and for some other reasons, but that was the main one. He had had some problems with a bank robbery and some other hardships, but then he put his life together and started a roofing company.
But this story isn't about Robot. It is about the kid he hired one summer.
This college freshman showed up looking like Tommy "Gun" Morrison the blond-haired, baby-faced heavyweight boxer in the '80s.
He smiled up from the bottom of the ladder. Robot looked down from the roof at the wide shoulders slim waist and guns that looked like they had been ripped off a battleship.
"C'mon up, Duke," he called
When they were both straddling the pinnacle of the roof, Robot said, "You tough?"
"Somewhat, I guess."
"Good, you have to be tough to be a roofer."
Tommy Gunn, which is what Ro called him because like I said he looked so much like that boxer who they cast in Rocky movie, worked pretty good all morning, first stripping the old shingles and then nailing the new ones on in the 90 degree heat.
He never asked to take a break, not even for water.
Then it happened. He slipped near the side edge of the roof about half-way up. He let his boots get sideways and the treads no longer held him and he started to slide. When he grabbed the side of the roof he cut himself pretty good between his thumb and index finger.
Ro saw it happen and laughed.
Pat, which was his real name, righted himself and looked at Ro incredulously. "Why the hell are you laughing?" he demanded.
"I thought you were tough."
"I am, man. This is a pretty deep cut. I'm going to have to get stitches."
Ro sidled across the roof to where Tommy was sitting, both feet now planted to the slope.
"Look, kid," Robot said, "You have to be tougher than this to be a roofer."
He paused, then continued. "You want to see how tough you have to be?"("Sure, sure," Pat said wrapping his handkerchief around his hand. He wasn't happy. "Go ahead old man show me how tough a roofer is."(Ro took a roofing nail and held it up to Tommy's face. He said nothing, just smiled. Then he led his hammer up so the kid could see it plainly.
Ro planted his right foot against the roof and laid the left on down flat.
Then he drove the roofing nail directly into his own left leg. One smack; half an inch into his leg. One more smack, and the round nail head was flush against the leg.
"That tough," he said.
He didn't have to. Pat had crab-walked to the ladder scurried down and was losing his lunch next to the driveway.
I guess he wasn't so tough after all. Everything is perception, and our perception is usually flawed because of lack of information.
For instance, Pat didn't know Robot had a wooden leg, and liked to pull this trick on all the new guys.
Pat had been pounding nails into wood all day, but now, just one little missing piece of information and, well. You get the point.

Caribou Island
On a small island in a glacier-fed lake on Alaska's Kenai Peninsula, Gary and Irene's marriage is unraveling. Following the outline of Gary's old dream and trying to rebuild their life together, they are finally constructing the kind of cabin that drew them to Alaska in the first place. But the onset of an early winter and the overwhelming isolation of the prehistoric wilderness threaten their bond to the core.
Brilliantly drawn and fiercely honest, Caribou Island is a drama of bitter love and failed dreams—an unforgettable portrait of desolation, violence, and the darkness of the soul.
David Vann is the author of Legend of a Suicide, which has been translated into sixteen languages, won ten prizes, and been on forty Best Books of the Year lists worldwide. He's also the author of the bestselling memoir A Mile Down: The True Story of a Disastrous Career at Sea and Last Day on Earth: A Portrait of the NIU School Shooter, winner of the AWP Nonfiction Award. A current Guggenheim Fellow and former Stegner Fellow and NEA Fellow, he has taught at Stanford and Cornell, and is now a professor at the University of San Francisco.
Caribou Island is a bleak but absolutely compelling story of the gradual disintegration of a marriage to a tragic end. The prose is spare and sharp. Has stayed with me.

Is It OK to Put a Canvas Print in the Bathroom?
Canvas prints are among the most popular forms of home decor. Not only is it easy to find cheap canvas printing options online that will deliver right to your door, but they look artistic and beautiful. This style of printing allows your photos or artwork to be the center of attention on your wall rather than a decorative frame.
Canvas is a relatively durable decor option. It's resistant to being dropped, and it doesn't scratch or tear as easily as other forms of photos. But will it work in areas where moisture and steam are prevalent, such as your bathroom?
Moisture is obviously an enemy to canvas. It will fade your photo, cause the colors to bleed together, and could even damage your wall. But that doesn't mean it won't work in your particular bathroom. Consider a few things before deciding whether or not to hang a photo in this room.
Do people shower in there?
Bathrooms without a shower are much less of a concern than those where the shower is being run daily. Hot, steamy water pouring into an enclosed room can cause damage to certain surfaces, so you certainly don't want to hang a painting in this room. Canvas prints may not work well in this atmosphere either.
If you only take baths (which does not create as much steam) or it's a powder room without a bath or shower, there likely won't be a problem hanging your canvas print in this space. Moisture will be in the air, but your canvas should be durable enough to withstand it.
Just make sure you have proper ventilation in this room. Running the fan during showers, baths, or times when you run the water for a consistent amount of time will reduce the moisture problem in the air and on the walls. This will allow all your bathroom decor a little more longevity.
Do you find drips of condensation on the walls or surfaces?
Before hanging up a canvas print, check out the moisture conditions on a regular basis. For a few days, note areas of condensation or drips on all walls and surfaces. Check windows and around the shower for telltale signs of condensation damage.
Pay special attention to the area where you're thinking about hanging your print. Inspect the area several times per day — after you shower, before and after using the bathroom, when washing your hands, or for your daily cleaning. Condensation evaporates quickly, so if you don't check several times per day, you might never find evidence of excess moisture.
Have wooden surfaces warped in the past?
If there are wooden surfaces in your bathroom, note how they've fared in the bathroom. These materials don't handle excessive water well, so if there's a lot of moisture in the room, you'll know that the canvas won't handle this atmosphere well.
You may not have wooden decorations in your room, so check out your door. If it's made from hardwood rather than particle board, you'll be able to assess the conditions.
What's the quality of the canvas?
Last, but not least, consider the quality of the canvas and the ink. A thick canvas will absorb more water than a thin one, and high-quality inks will last longer. Giclee inks are recommended, because they're more durable and absorb better into the canvas. A protective gloss over the canvas will also protect it from bathroom moisture.
As long as your canvas is designed to stand the test of time, your bathroom environment shouldn't be a problem for your bathroom decor.

THE LIFE THAT LATE HE LED: A Biography of Cole Porter
Porter would seem a perfect subject for biography, a Fitzgeraldian figure, musical genius, cultivated hedonist, international darling who projected a Playboy image until a tragic accident left him crippled yet proved him as an indomitable stoic, a stout fellow. A true character for a novel and oddly enough that's exactly what he seems in this life story that fails to capture either the reality of its subject or the verve of the era. Richard Hubler's The Cole Porter Story (1965, p. 1005) managed it, at least in part, perhaps because the first half of the book was ""as told to."" Certainly this effort deserves credit for energetic research; it's perhaps overweighted with detail, so much so that the dapper little composer seems lost. But the Porter fan will undoubtedly relish the look at Cole's dominating, determined mother, his fusty, overwhelming grandfather, his wife Linda, eight years his senior, ""original, vital, spoiled"" with ""rare sensibilities and exquisite taste."" Parties and celebrities: best friend Elsa Maxwell, Ethel Merman, Mary Martin, Moss Hart, Fanny Brice, ""Bricktop"" etc. pop on and off the page. And there's a curtain by curtain rundown on shows mourned and memorable, and a lengthy look at the man after the accident. But the ""baroque personality"" never asserts itself, the ""time to be elegant, witty, selfish"" seems faded. An earnest attempt. But Porter himself would have preferred more lilt.

Volkswagen is introduce the 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan during the Frankfurt Motor Show starting 15th September. This model is the third in Tiguan generation. The second generation is currently on sale as a 2016 model. It will be manufactured in Pueblo, Mexico.
2017 Volkswagen Tiguan Exterior
The 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan will be based on the Volkswagen's modular MQB platform. The new SUV will be 185 inches long and will feature five doors. The new SUV has added about ten inches to its chassis compared to the predecessor model. This has made it possible for inclusion of a third row of seats.
The front will feature a remodeled bumper and grille which bring out an aggressive look. The exterior also gets redesigned headlights, a new spoiler and chrome strips. The vehicle will also feature 22-inch wheels. It will also have a sloping roofline and a prominent C-pillar.
2017 Volkswagen Tiguan Interior
The interior of the new VW Tiguan 2017 is exceptionally beautiful. The auto maker has added modern technologies and premium materials to make the interior luxurious.
The interior is bigger due to the increased. It will have a seating capacity of five adult passengers with an option for a third row of seats. However the third row of seats won't be as spacious as the mid row and will only be suitable for children. The expanded chassis also results with an expanded cargo space of 17.6 cubic inches.
The seats are covered with Nappa leather which gives motorists an option for customizing. There will be a 10.1 inch touchscreen as well. Other features will include climate control, a navigation system and Bluetooth connectivity among other excellent features.
Engine, Specs and Performance
Volkswagen has not released official details on the engine that will power the 2017 VW Tiguan. However, we believe the automaker will offer three engine options, i.e. a gasoline, hybrid and a diesel engine.
The base engine will be a 1.4 L 4-cylinder TSI petrol engine with a capacity to produce 123 hp and 110 lb-ft of torque. This unit will be mated with a 6 speed manual and a 7-speed dual clutch DSG transmission system. It will be available in 4 wheel drive mode. More powerful TSI petrol engines will have a 148 hp, 178 hp and 217 hp.
The hybrid engine will be a combination of a 3.6 L V6 unit with two electric motors delivering 264 kW of power as well as 280 lb-ft of torque. The hybrid unit will be paired with a 7-speed automatic transmission system with double clutch. It will be offered in four wheel drive.
The third engine according to rumors will be a diesel, 2.0L TDI unit which will be paired with a six speed manual gearbox, and will be in versions with 113 hp, 148 hp, 187 hp and the most powerful BiTurbo version with 237 hp.
New VW Tiguan 2017 will be released in the market in late 2016 or early 2017. The base trim level will have a starting price of around $24,000 while the top trim will cost around $ 45,000. However, the auto maker is yet to release official information on its price and release date. We will inform you of such news immediately it becomes available.
The Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4 and Mazda CX-5 will be its main competitors.
We present you the new Volkswagen T-Prime concept. If you …
Volkswagen T-Prime concept
Though the rise of crossovers is unsettling Europe's love for …
2017 Volkswagen Up
I live in Nova Scotia Canada , wondering what the Canadian cost will be….basic and above
The starting price of a VW Tiguan in Canada with Trendline trim level is $ 24.990, SE trim level starts at $ 29.998, Comfortline start at $ 33.998 and Highline start at $ 36.998.
Will we be getting the bi turbo diesel?
Yes, twin-turbo diesel 2.0-liter with 237 hp.
John Niedziejko
Will this also be available in an automatic diesel engine?
On the market of Europe are increasingly popular diesel engines combined with a manual gearbox, while on US market are popular gasoline engines with automatic transmission. But it will be an available version of the Tiguan with a diesel engine and automatic transmission.
MalikBrother
I thought Twin-turbo deisel 2.0-liter with 237 hp are banned in Canada, or at least, the diesels from VW after diesel-scandal recently. Hence my heart is set on TSI instead.
I hear there is mini Tiguan being released in Canada in the same year long wheel-base of Tiguan which will be this version as photographed but bigger. I don't mind mini Tiguan or coupe Tiguan with 4 doors as rumored.
Clarification would be great. Thank in advance.
I currently have a 2015 Tiguan SE 4 Motion. What will the comparable price point be for the upcoming 2017 model with an SE level trim and 4motion in the United States? When are these models expected to be available for test drives at dealerships in the North East?

Q: Custom HTML for the search box used by the ListController behavior I want to customize list searching behavior for backend panel.

I need to send keywords through ajax request, make a specific query and return/update this list.
At the moment search input works through Data attributes API.
<input placeholder="Search..." type="text" name="listToolbarSearch[term]" value="2" data-request="listToolbarSearch::onSubmit" data-track-input="" data-load-indicator="" data-load-indicator-opaque="" class="form-control icon search growable" autocomplete="off">

To be more exact I want to extend data-request="listToolbarSearch::onSubmit" function or make something like this and execute it through javascript ajax api on click event. I can't find this function in the framework(

A: This is fairly simple to do. Inside your List Controller configuration (config_list.yaml file), the toolbar search option will accept a partial name to use.
# Toolbar widget configuration
toolbar:
    # Partial for toolbar buttons
    buttons: list_toolbar

    # Partial for toolbar search
    search: my_search

Then inside your controller view directory you can use any search markup you like. For example, create a partial called _my_search.htm with these contents:
<div class="loading-indicator-container size-input-text">
    <input
        placeholder="Search for something"
        type="text"
        name="term"
        value=""
        data-request="onMyHandler"
        data-track-input
        data-load-indicator
        data-load-indicator-opaque
        class="form-control"
        autocomplete="off" />
</div>

"Partnership Matters: Addressing Bias and Promoting Inclusion" the annual London NHS Partnership conference took place on 23 February 2015 in Central London.
The conference brought management and Trade Unions together in order to strengthen partnership working and to look at how we can sustain and build on this good work in the year ahead.
The theme for 2015 was tackling bias and promoting inclusion and the conference addressed the issues surrounding unconscious bias and looked at ways of creating a culture of inclusivity through working in partnership.
Roger Kline "The NHS Workforce Race Equality Standard - Next steps: why and how?"
Wendy Irwin "Is that discrimination? Tackling workplace bias and discrimination in the workplace: Tools for challenge"
Linbert Spencer "Addressing Bias and Inclusion"
Jon Skewes "A National and Local Partnership Picture"
Simon Weldon "The Forward View Into Action"
31 organisations attended Conference in 2015 versus 27 for 2014. Of the organisations that attended in 2014, 5 organisations were not represented in partnership. Of the organisations that attended in 2015, 4 organisations were not represented in partnership. Feedback forms received as a % of attendees in 2015 (excluding Chair, Partnership Chair, speakers and NHSE employees) 58%. Total number of respondents – 38; 28 paper based evaluation forms completed on the day and a further 10 online following the event. Overall event rating – 3.65.
"Good range of speeches all relevant to subject"
"Presentations by invited speakers were very good, a range of views from people looking at similar topics from different perspectives provided a well-rounded view of bias and discrimination in the NHS"
"Particularly enjoyed keynote address from Danny Mortimer and speakers Kline and L Spencer - inspiring!"
"I thought Deb O'Dea and Bernell and the RCN pitches were exceptional"
"Some more group work would be interesting and break up the talks"
"More focus on 'Positive Action'. So intrinsically linked to bias, B&H and discrimination issues"
"I will be looking at our partnerships with the trade unions as we develop our E&D work and have forged links with other Trust to work in partnership with them"
A position paper of the research and the work progressed by the Unconcious Bias sub group is available.
What is unconscious bias ?
What is unconscious bias, how does it work, what interventions mitigate its effects?
Everyone, often without realising, harbours unconscious views about people with certain characteristics that may be influencing choices in recruitment, promotion and performance management. We tend to prefer people who look like us, sound like us and share our interests. Social psychologists call this phenomenon "social categorisation" whereby we routinely and rapidly sort people into groups. Brain imaging scans have demonstrated that when people are shown images of faces that differ to themselves, it activates an irrational prejudgment in the brain's alert system for danger; the amygdale. This happens in less than a tenth of a second.
There is a mechanism for asserting conscious control to prevent ourselves acting on these instinctive feelings. People can be trained to identify and then manage the feelings. The brain has a limited capacity to control bias. Stressors in the workplace such as fear, frustration or tiredness use up these resources, so weakening our ability to manage bias.
People can be trained to assess their level of bias using the Harvard University Implicit Association Test (https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/takeatest.html) and then learn to see the mis-match between their stated goals (e.g. to be fair, or to comply with policies) and their instinctive people preferences.


The Novant Health Kernersville Medical Center is a 220,000 sq ft, full-service hospital that offers surgery services, diagnostic and support services, and inpatient and outpatient medical care. The facility includes 50 beds, 14 emergency department treatment rooms, 46 inpatient hospital rooms/beds, and an intensive care unit with four beds.

Deadly Stillwater 4.2 out of 5 based on 0 ratings. 701 reviews.
Be prepared for a page-turning experience when you read this book! Roger Stelljes packs an extraordinary amount of twists, turns and intrigue into just four days as he takes you with Detective Mac McRyan and his cohorts through St. Paul and the surrounding area as they are pitted against seemingly brilliant adversaries. Stelljes' detailed style of writing brings you inside his characters where you'll feel their excitement and their frustrations as you travel with them throughout the Eastern metro and Western Wisconsin areas that are easily visualized through the author's vivid descriptions. A must read for those of us who love this genre!
Really good book have about half, & am liking everything from plot, characters & engaging dialouge.
I was up all night reading this book. One of the best free books I have ever read. I tried to find his other book mentioned at the end, but couldn't. .
Deadly Stillwater engages, draws the reader in. Mac and his three buddies are likable guys that take you along for the ride as they race against time to solve the mystery and keep two young ladies from dying in a coffin built for two. Having choosne this one because of its venue (it is set in St Paul, Minnesota, and its environs-Stillwater is the home of a penitentiary), I was delighted to find a good story. This is not quite as good as the Krueger stories, but still very good.
Love mac he follow his instinct and got the job done. This was an easy read,i really enjoyed it an loved the end. I've just found a new author.
A definite must read! Will keep you on the edge beginning to end.
Edge of seat thriller! Great plot! A must read.
I enjoyed this book a lot! It kept me interested and once vested I couldn't put it down! It was one of those novels that you couldn't wait for the hero to find out what we already know! Excellent work!
Can't wait to read more by this author! Love, love, love it!
If you have ever spent any time in the Twin Cites you will really enjoy this one. It has a great plot, I found it hard to put down.
This is really a great read. It draws you in and keeps you. Over 800 pages and no boring parts. The chatacters are good and so is the plot.
A midwest mystery with plenty of action to keep you reading.Hard to put down especially near the end. Hats off to the author a job well done!
Excellent! Held my interest to the end. No skipping pages on this one. Was surprised it was that good since it was free.
700 plus pages . Could not put down... My life went onhold for 2 days with very little sleep.
Set in St. Paul, MN this is an excellent action packed book. This contemporary police detective thriller is one you will not want to put down.
This was the second Roger Stelljes book read and i thoroughly enjoyed it. In addition to being a page-turner, his descriptions of St Paul make me feel like I have been there, which I never have. I am currently reading the next book in the series, and enjoying it just as much as the other two.
I am originally from Minnesota and this book brought back a lot of memories. Great details about the places the characters in the book go to. I enjoyed this book very much. Read it in 3 days.
I really liked this book. I would highly recommend it to mystery readers.
A very fast paced up all night read for sure!
Thhis was really good read, couldn't put it down.
Ths book should be made into a movie! Great plot and full of suspene.
Well written, good characters and action. Recommended.

Q: How can I check returned value from put request angular I am using angular material stepper, and after each step I send data to backend. So, I have this method in me fist step, that return LeadStatusRequest the following kind:
export interface LeadStatusRequest {
    id: number;
    value: string;
    publicId: string;
}

and put method:
public submit(): Observable<LeadStatusRequest> {
    return this.dataService
        .putData(this.formData)
        .pipe(
            catchError(err => {
                const emailErrorText: string =
                    'Email address already exists. No update performed';
                if (err.error.Errors.find(error => error.includes(emailErrorText))) {
                    this.formGroup.controls.emailAddress.setErrors({notUniqueEmail: true});
                    return throwError({isSkippedNotification: true});
                }
                return throwError(err);
            }),
        );
}

So I should check if the result of submit method returns object with key "publicId", I should set it to localstorage.
I try do this, but in this case I have a several put requests
public submit(): Observable<LeadStatusRequest> {
        this.dataService.putData(this.formData)
            .subscribe(res => {
            if (res.publicId) {
                this.authService.setPublicId(res.publicId);
            }
        });
        return this.dataService
            .putData(this.formData)
            .pipe(
                catchError(err => {
                    const emailErrorText: string =
                        'Email address already exists. No update performed';
                    if (err.error.Errors.find(error => error.includes(emailErrorText))) {
                        this.formGroup.controls.emailAddress.setErrors({notUniqueEmail: true});
                        return throwError({isSkippedNotification: true});
                    }
                    return throwError(err);
                }),
            )
    }

A: It looks like you want to:

*

*Make 1 this.dataService.putData call

*Take some conditional action based on a success response

*Handle a failed response

Your catchError operator will only run if there is an error. All you need to do is handle the success response in an operator before catchError. You can perform actions using the tap operator.
public submit(): Observable<LeadStatusRequest> {
  return this.dataService
    .putData(this.formData)
    .pipe(
      tap(res => {
        if (res.publicId) {
          this.authService.setPublicId(res.publicId);
        }
      }),
      catchError(err => {
        const emailErrorText: string = 'Email address already exists. No update performed';
        if (err.error.Errors.find(error => error.includes(emailErrorText))) {
          this.formGroup.controls.emailAddress.setErrors({notUniqueEmail: true});
          return throwError({isSkippedNotification: true});
        }
        return throwError(err);
      }),
    );
}

California's budget woes are a rising tide on the state prison system

Every state agency has felt California's budget crunch, and on Monday state prison officials announced a multi-faceted plan that would significantly reduce the budget for California's crowded prisons. The plan aims to cut costs by reducing overcrowding and ending what prison officials perceive to be intrusive federal oversight of inmate medical and mental health care.
Part of the proposal hinges on realignment ordered by Governor Jerry Brown, which mandates that California's prisons focus primarily on the most violent and dangerous offenders and transfer lower level offenders to county jails. Relocating minor offenders allows the prison system to eliminate $4.1 billion in construction projects and save an additional $318 million a year by bringing back by 2016 about 9,500 inmates who are currently serving California sentences in private prisons in other states.
"It's a massive change to our system," said Corrections Secretary Matthew Cate at Monday's press conference. In total, the prison overhaul would save the state $1.5 billion a year and reduce the prison system's percentage of the state budget from 11 percent to 7.5 percent.
According to Cate, preliminary reports on realignment have been positive, and the cost-cutting plan is the quickest way to solve prison overcrowding.
"We have 22,000 fewer inmates in our prisons from when we began realignment, so we have to act now. We don't have time to wait. The other thing is, the news from the counties have been very encouraging. Most of the counties have reported that they are seeing good public safety results, as the county has been funded, and sheriffs are ramping up and probation departments ... they're doing a great job," he said.
The bad news? State prison officials also announced that they will not meet a planned deadline to reduce the inmate population by 40,000 inmates by the June 2013 deadline. Cate said they'll surpass the benchmark number by 3,000 inmates.
"That's when we'd like to go to the court and hopefully at that point demonstrate we're providing constitutional care at this level, and we would like you to raise the levels that you allow us to keep in the prisons just very slightly," he said Tuesday.
Rebekah Evensen, senior staff attorney on Counsel on Brown v. Plata, the case that resulted in the Supreme Court's prison crowding reduction order, said it makes sense to continue decreasing the level of crowding, but she thinks the state isn't going far enough.
"The court cap says that the prison system can keep housing 110,000 prisoners in prisons that were built for 80,000. So even under the court order, there are 30,000 more people in prison than the prisons were designed to house, to provide medical care for, to provide mental health care for. And at that level of crowding, it's extremely difficult to provide constitutional levels of care," she explained.
Are these cost cutting measures the right place to trip California's bloated budget? And is this plan realistic for the largest prison system in the nation?

Photos from WWII reenactment events in Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, and Ohio, USA, December 2018-March 2019.
You can't have a Schreibstube, without paper.
I collect many different types of wartime paper items including Feldpost letters, identity documents, passes, ration and personal kit item packaging and other ephemera from the war years. Paper used during the war came in a wide variety of textures, colors, and thicknesses but there are characteristics that I associate with wartime paper in general. Materials shortages necessitated the use of even things like potato stalks in German paper, it was different from most paper commonly used today. Most commercially available modern paper is made differently from what was used in the first half of the twentieth century, in general. Modern paper is brighter and smoother whereas wartime paper was often rougher, with a slightly mottled appearance. Of course there were exceptions to this, smooth paper did exist back then.
Having a Schreibstube necessitates having a variety of different kinds of paper for different documents and purposes. I have found it very difficult to source exact modern equivalents for wartime paper, but I have been able to amass a lot of usable paper that looks close enough to fall generally within the very wide range of what was used. To reiterate, you are looking for paper that is not bright white, and that has some texture. One thing I do from time to time is go to an art supply store and look at sketch pads. There are a lot of different types of these pads available and many have usable paper. I will also look at stationery and try to find nice paper with subtle watermarks, or without watermarks, or various kinds of natural colored or off-white stock for specific projects.
One thing you can keep an eye out for is paper with a high recycled content that has not been bleached to bright white. Paper and envelopes in "Recyclinggrau" color, that may be available in Germany, look great.
If you look at pads of "kraft" paper, or colored "construction paper," you may find usable stuff for making envelopes, small passes or ID documents, or other specific purposes. Here in the US, dollar stores often have sketch pads with thin newsprint type paper that is great.
Newsprint in general is very good to have and is widely available in pads. The issue with this is that it doesn't stand up to fountain pen ink, which will bleed and feather. So newsprint alone is not suitable for all purposes.There is paper that is marketed today specifically for fountain pen use.
A lot of these pads of paper are 9" x 12" which is ideal as you can cut that down to the DIN A4 size that is and was standard in Germany.
Lastly, keep an eye out for actual vintage paper. In antique shops and thrift stores you can sometimes find old typewriter paper or old notebooks. Even small notebooks can yield great paper for typewritten Soldbuch inserts or other small documents. And old books may have blank end pages that can be utilized.
I started this site in 2010 and despite very many postage price increases by the US Postal Service, I kept the shipping prices the same over the years. Recently there was another big increase and I cannot continue to lose so much on shipping costs, I have been forced to raise my shipping rates for the first time ever. Shipping one stamp sheet or up to 2 rubber stamps with handles now costs $4 in the USA or $15 to Europe (an increase of $1). Shipping for multiple sheets or larger stamp orders will be more. I don't think any other vendor will ship any parcel for less. "Free shipping" is just built into the price, of course. I remain committed to offering my products to other hobbyists as inexpensively as possible.
Many people have asked me about wartime German handwriting- what styles were used, how to tell the scripts apart, how to learn to write in German script. I posted an article tonight about this. I included some historical background information about handwriting in Germany and show a bunch of examples of the different scripts.
Many people have asked me what Soldbuch photos should look like. Before 1943, there were no Soldbuch photos for the Heer, SS or Luftwaffe. Most Soldbücher issued 1939-44 had photos added in 1944. They simply used whatever photos were available. Many soldiers never got photos. I posted a new article with some examples of original Soldbuch photos.
Many people have asked me how to create a correct period type roster for their reenactment group. I have posted this information online in countless groups but until now I have not sat down to put all of the necessary information in one place. I've just got a new article up that contains all the details necessary to complete this project: where to get the binder, a printable PDF for period type binder labels, another PDF for the page that had to be filled out for each soldier, plus scans for reference, the translation of the form, and information about how to fill the form out. Every reenactment unit should have a clerk and every reenactment clerk should consider maintaining this type of record, it is a great thing to have.
I'm leaving today for the event at Fort Indiantown Gap, PA, and won't be back until Sunday. I can't ship any orders until next week. Sorry for the inconvenience.
I wanted to share this nice letter from the Zeitgeschichtliches Museum Mannheim thanking me for a set of reproduction stamps I created for an exhibit. I take pride in making reproductions that are truly museum quality.
we received our order of WW2 copy rubber stamp set today.
Again we are very pleased with your work as it is excellent.
stamps were used in the Mannheim area during the time of WW2.
not open doors for fakers.
Again, thank you very much for your great work!"
Here are a couple of rubber ink stamps I made for marking uniform items manufactured in SS facilities. I have designs for many different WWII uniform and equipment stamps, copied from originals. E-mail me at intrenches1945@gmail.com for any custom stamp for marking reproduction items.
I've been having a busy summer and the new In Trenches web shop is still not ready for its debut. In the meantime, I wanted to post this new article. Every reenactment group needs a clerk to issue identity documents and other paperwork. This article is a guide for people interested in this unique specialty impression, it contains tips for how to get started and ideas for the practical application of this skill in a living history context.
