More Blacks Jailed: Is It Racism?
The number of black people in North Carolina prisons is disproportionately higher compared to their white counterparts. Blacks or African-Americans make up a mere 22 percent of North Carolina residents, but they number more than 50 percent of the prison population. There are almost 5 times more blacks than whites in prison in proportion to the general populace. But is it racism? Or do some other factors play a role in this statistic?
No matter how low the judge sets your bail, you won't be able to afford to pay your bonds if you're living in poverty. White people are more likely to have earned a college degree, giving them (or a family member) the capability to meet the required amounts. Even 10 percent of the bail amount — if you go to a bail guarantor —is almost impossible for black defendants, giving them no choice but incarceration. Some of these defendants will opt for a plea deal, regardless of their guilt or innocence, just so that they can shorten their time in jail and get back to their loved ones. In Charlotte, the majority of crimes are property crimes, and most of the perpetrators are unemployed and live in poverty.
Almost 20 percent of all black inmates are repeat offenders or habitual felons. This is because of the lack of opportunities driving them to desperation in the outside world or just an affinity to criminal behavior. Incarceration increases your chances of committing criminal acts. Whether it's by indoctrination into a criminal gang or just the additional hardships that you'll face as a previously convicted felon. Spending time in jail puts your marriage, relationships, employment, even housing in jeopardy. An inmate who comes out of prison with nothing to hold on to has a bigger chance of turning back to his criminal ways. Trump's Criminal Justice Reform Bill seeks to find solutions to these problems by limiting incarceration to only the violent offenders and exploring alternative penalties that don't involve jail time.
In black communities, criminality and gangs are tolerated and sometimes even glorified. This is clearly seen with rappers claiming street cred by being in gangs or by being shot. Seeing law enforcement as the enemy also builds into the tolerance of criminal acts. When witnesses and even victims are more afraid of the cops than the criminals, crimes will be left unchecked. The mentality of oppression and hopelessness has also driven many black youths into criminality, believing that no matter what they do, they will never have a fair chance because of their color. Family is the only solution to this crisis. Teach your kids that they can do what they want even if it's to become President. Obama won the presidency twice; that would never have happened if the U.S. was genuinely racist.
There are clear reasons for the number of blacks in prison, and racism is not a clear factor. Victim mentality and hopelessness are two of the bigger factors, and change needs to come from within the communities themselves for things to get better.

How to Start a New Habit That Actually Sticks
Aristotle said, "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit."
When it comes to living a positive lifestyle, our habits either make or break us. Habits decide our physical health, emotional well-being and even our outlook on life.
But when it's time to start a new healthy habit, it can be pretty difficult. If you want to start the new decade with a habit that will actually stick, check out these tips:
1. Use a trigger.
All habits—negative or positive—come from a triggering action. A trigger automatically initiates a behavior and leads you to do something else. Using cues like time of day, place and circumstance with your trigger will increase the likelihood that your habit will stick.
Use the trigger process to remind yourself when developing a new habit. A good reminder encodes your new behavior in something that you already do. For example, "Before breakfast and after I shower, I will meditate for five minutes every day." By incorporating your new habit into behaviors you already practice, it will be easier to remember.
2. Start small with your habits.
Lasting change is a product of daily habits, not once-in-a-lifetime transformations. It's important to start your habits small so they're easier to manage and can grow through time.
First, decide what you want your new habit to be. Then, ask yourself how you can make this behavior so easy you can do it without thinking. Slowly build on that simple task, stick to a sustainable pace and be patient—big changes take time.
3. Keep a larger goal in mind.
Keep your immediate goals small but remember to dream big for the future. Decide on your ultimate larger goal, and then develop a plan with smaller steps to get there. Make bigger goals a reality by doing a little work each day to achieve them.
By establishing your larger goal, you'll have something set in mind while working every day on small steps. For example, if your goal is to write a book, start by journaling 10 minutes every day, then incrementally increase the time and effort you put into writing.
4. Reward yourself.
It's important to stay positive while creating new habits, and the best way to do this is by rewarding yourself for even the smallest of victories. If you complete an action and have a positive reward at the end of it, you're more likely to do that same action again and form a routine. Repeat this routine enough, and it becomes a habit.
Reward yourself each time you practice your habit. This can be something as simple as congratulating yourself or getting yourself a treat.
5. Get back on track quickly.
Nobody's perfect, and you won't be perfect when you're developing a habit. It's okay to make mistakes, but it's important to get back on track quickly when you do. Abandon the all-or-nothing mentality—instead, plan for failure. Missing a habit once or twice is OK, but be consistent enough to not do it repeatedly and return to the behavior as soon as possible.
Focus on building the identity of someone who never misses a habit twice. Examine where your habit breaks down, then incorporate an if-then scenario. For example, "If I forget to meditate in the morning, then I will meditate for five minutes when I get home from work."
On average, a new habit takes 30 days to develop, so don't be discouraged if you struggle at first. Stay positive, focus on the goal and your new habit will get easier.

At the upcoming LDI 2014 exhibition in Las Vegas, Clear-Com® demonstrates new solutions that saves users time and money, while making their workflows much more efficient.
At the upcoming LDI 2014 exhibition in Las Vegas, Clear-Com® will demonstrate its continued commitment in linking communication groups together with its latest intercom, signal transport and intercom connectivity (ICON) solutions. These new solutions can save users time and money, while making their workflows much more efficient.
Clear-Com will present the new LQ™ Series, a new family of ICON devices for linking intercom and audio systems over IP networks. Visitors will also see the new FreeSpeak II™ wireless intercom system, a DECT-based offering that operates in the license-free band 1.92 to 1.93 GHz. In addition, we will be showing ProGrid™, the synchronous, optical fiber transport solution for audio, intercom, video, and data.
As a low audio latency communication link, LQ Series can be used for natural intercom conversation, networked music performances and for audio signals that are transported between different facilities. Based on Clear-Com's patented I.V.Core® technology, the compact LQ throw-down devices enable connections of 2-wire partyline with call signaling and 4-wire audio over LAN, WAN or Internet IP infrastructures. LQ Series has a 2-wire (LQ-2W2) or 4-wire (LQ-4W2) option. The LQ-2W2 is both Clear-Com and RTS TW compatible. A maximum of six LQ IP interfaces can be linked together in any 2- or 4-wire combination.
The recent release of FreeSpeak II™ places it as the preferred DECT-based, all-roaming wireless communication solution in the United States and Canada for live event, broadcast, sport production, industrial, military and government applications. Operating in the license-free 1.92 to 1.93 GHz band, FreeSpeak II has been demonstrating its advanced roaming capabilities across large-scale, multi-zone production areas.
The system supports up to 20 full-duplex wireless beltpacks and 10 antennas connected to one base station or fully integrated into the Clear-Com Eclipse HX digital matrix system. The base station has connections for two partylines and four 4-wires, including a dedicated SA output and program audio input. With the full-duplex 7kHz bandwidth, the digital 'Clear-Com Sound' reduces ear fatigue after extended usage and delivers clear intelligibility of every word said into the system.
Clear-Com will also highlight ProGrid™, the highly resilient and scalable platform for carrying, distributing, and routing high capacity of audio, intercom and video signals, as well as control data, across long distances without compromising its performance, speed, or quality. ProGrid is based on the open AES3 and AES10 (MADI) standards, providing fiber-based transport, routing and format conversion with full management and diagnostic capabilities using the Optocore® and SANE technologies.
The complete line of Clear-Com's new and enhanced products will be available for demonstration at LDI 2014 on booth 1752.

Bulldogs shutout Pride in Harvest Bowl 15
Turlock wins first-ever CCAL title
The Turlock High varsity Bulldogs celebrate after winning the Harvest Bowl against Pitman Friday evening (CANDY PADILLA/The Journal).
The first ever Central California Athletic League football champions are Turlock High after they completed a perfect season in league play on Friday from Joe Debely, with a 33-0 shutout over previously unbeaten Pitman High in Harvest Bowl 15.
"We keep finding a way to win and tonight was no different," said Turlock head coach James Peterson. "As a head coach you look at all the things in between and we made a lot of spectacular plays and for the most part as a head coach I saw the mistakes and things we have to get better at."
Turlock's Jonah Kosakiewics searches for an open target (CANDY PADILLA/The Journal).
"You never know with rivalries, brothers in the city you could call it, and it's a backyard brawl and when brothers get in a brawl you try to step out of the way and take care of it," said Pitman coach Chris Wolfley. "I think the game got away from us a little bit. Turlock is good, obviously, and we don't want to make excuses but we were down four starters tonight and it made a big difference."
The win also marked the third straight year that Turlock has won a league title and the fifth straight win over Pitman. Pitman last won in 2013.
The series is nearly tied with Pitman leading all time 8-7.
Turlock also outgained Pitman in overall yards.
Turlock tallied 390 total yards on offense while Pitman had 152 total yards—43 of which came in the final drive. Pitman was forced to punt the ball eight times for the game.
It didn't help that Pitman was also dealing with four starters out due to injury, including wide receiver standout Denzel Steckwren who proved he was one of the most explosive wide outs in the CCAL this year after finishing with over 500 yards receiving.
Pitman's unblemished record is over as they end the regular season at 9-1.
Turlock goes to 7-3 overall and 5-0 in league.
"Playing a tough preseason schedule is hard because we went a lot of weeks where we took some tough losses and then we had a bye week and our team morale was tough during those times," said Peterson. "I told our guys to trust in the process and keep playing for each other and play one snap at a time and we've been doing that and despite all the things that may cost us, we find ways to win."
Turlock scored on their second drive of the game after Jonah Kosakiewicz zipped a pass to Cam Sherwood in between double coverage, then he sprinted down the sideline for a 68-yard score with 5:01 left in the first to make it 7-0.
The second touchdown was scored by Kosakiewicz who ran it in from 12-yards out on a nine-yard drive, that extended the lead to 14-0 with 7:18 remaining till the half.
The Bulldogs extended the lead to 21-0 with 1:10 left till half after Kosakiewicz found Sherwood for the second score from four yards out.
Christian Gardner then leveled a 43-yard field goal with 1.1 left on the clock and the halftime score read 24-0.
Gardner added a second field goal from 23-yards out with 5:34 left in the third to make it 27-0.
Anthony Frias scored the final touchdown for Turlock on a 55-yard run with 6:18 left in the game, and a failed two-point conversion made it 33-0.
Both Turlock and Pitman advance to the Sac-Joaquin Section playoffs with their opponents and times yet to be determined. For updated brackets check cifsjs.org.
Pitman's Payton Bass doesn't allow Turlock's Kosakiewics to gain many yards during Friday night's final league contest (CANDY PADILLA/The Journal).
"Sacramento schools don't get any easier and we will really work on it this week," Peterson added. "I don't know what we need to do but we have to get back to the film and get back to the grind and work hard and try to get this thing back on track. We just want to play better and make a run in the playoffs."


Eastdale Stud is a small, boutique breeding farm which was established in 1973 with the purchase of riding pony mares from the well known Glen Cree Stud, owned by Catherine and Bert Bell. Only ever breeding a small number of ponies, this was the beginning of what is now one of New Zealand's top studs.
Concentrating on quality rather than quantity, with the best possible bloodlines sourced from overseas, 30 years later the results speak for themselves. Eastdale ponies are consistently at the top, winning in both North and South Islands.
The objective has always been to breed a typey, elegant pony, one who sits up in front and looks at you, correct, and with extravagant movement and temperament to the fore. These attributes are a must for our children to produce in the show ring here in New Zealand.
We are located in North Canterbury just 10 minutes north of Rangiora and only 30 minutes from Christchurch International Airport with all supporting amenities close by.
We offer quality agistment, foaling services, weaning etc, for all breeds. Last year was extremely busy with foaling Eastdale mares and outside mares, showing, and the stud season, all in all a great year with results speaking for themselves.
Visitors are very welcome, a phone call prior would make it easier for us.

2011 Texans Watch-Beating Up The Browns
By Monica Roberts / November 7, 2011 April 15, 2021 / 2 minutes of reading
In front of the second largest crowd to ever watch a Texans game since the franchise started in 2002, they not only gleefully got to see them beat up the Cleveland Browns 30-12, the 71,511 people in attendance at Reliant Stadium were witnesses to Texans history.
The watched the Texans play old school smash mouth football on both sides of the ball as Arian Foster and Ben Tate eclipsed the 100 yard mark for the second straight game and combined for a Texans record 261 yards rushing on 40 carries.
Foster in addition to rushing for 124 yards also became the all time Texans leader in career rushing touchdowns with 24 when he scored on a 19 yard run in the second quarter.
The defense wasn't going to left out of this party as they rudely welcomed Colt McCoy back to Texas by sacking him four times and pounding him into the Reliant Stadium turf eight more times as the Texans built a 24-3 halftime lead.
Rookie Brooks Reed got two of the sacks, and the Wade Phillips coached defense held Cleveland's offense to 172 total yards. It was the third consecutive game the Texans have held an opponent under 200 yards of total offense and their defense is quickly climbing the NFL ranking charts despite losing Mario Williams for the season.
Imagine how good this defense would be with him playing in it.
The now 6-3 Texans are three games over .500 for the first time in club history, and the news got even better when the Traitors lost to the Bengals in Nashville, which increased the Texans lead in the AFC South.
The Texans head to Tampa to take on the Buccaneers next Sunday and that should be a fun game to watch.

Named after the Birmingham street gang which became prominent during the 1890s, the £21.99 spirit is made by Sadler's, a distillery based in Stourbridge in the West Midlands. It's made from a blend of exotic spices and nine botanicals, including ginger and grains of paradise, so similarly to the gangsters made famous by the fictional Shelby family, it's probably not for the faint-hearted.
Family-owned business Sadler's has seen recent success with its spirits range following its launch last year. Earlier in 2018, the gin won a bronze at both the San Francisco World Spirits Competition and the International Spirits Challenge. The brand has also developed a Peaky Blinder Spiced Rum, along with a range of craft lagers and pale ales, while its gold award-winning Peaky Blinder Irish whisky has already sold out. Call it the Tommy Shelby effect.

Faculty Of Computing, Eng. & Built Env.
Photo-excitation of certain semiconductors can lead to the production of reactive oxygen species that can inactivate microorganisms. The mechanisms involved are reviewed, along with two important applications. The first is the use of photocatalysis to enhance the solar disinfection of water. It is estimated that 750 million people do not have accessed to an improved source for drinking and many more rely on sources that are not safe. If one can utilize photocatalysis to enhance the solar disinfection of water and provide an inexpensive, simple method of water disinfection, then it could help reduce the risk of waterborne disease. The second application is the use of photocatalytic coatings to combat healthcare associated infections. Two challenges are considered, i.e., the use of photocatalytic coatings to give "self-disinfecting" surfaces to reduce the risk of transmission of infection via environmental surfaces, and the use of photocatalytic coatings for the decontamination and disinfection of medical devices. In the final section, the development of novel photocatalytic materials for use in disinfection applications is reviewed, taking account of materials, developed for other photocatalytic applications, but which may be transferable for disinfection purposes.

Andrew Carnegie wouldn't approve of the reason wooden boats have declined in popularity.
The Scottish-American industrialist, who in the late 19th century led the expansion of the American steel industry, was no stranger to hard work. But Carnegie, who at one point earned the title of world's richest man while working an average of four hours each day, emphasized the importance of leisure.
In the old days, a giant railroad set, model airplanes or a wooden boat would provide hours of entertainment and an escape from a hard day's work for those who enjoyed them.
But in recent decades, leisure time has diminished for many, and as a result, people's ability to own and care for wooden vessels also has declined.
"The time people have for hobbies is going by the wayside," said Newport Beach Harbor Commissioner Brad Avery, a wooden-boat owner. "A serious hobby is very time-consuming, and that's what a wooden boat is."
To care for a wooden vessel — adding varnish and repairing damage with custom parts — requires not only a significant amount of time but also money and dedication, Avery said.
Newport Harbor has sailed with the trend of rapidly diminishing numbers of wooden boats, both because of people's lack of free time to spend on the docks and the local decline of commercial fishing, an industry that often uses wooden boats.
The scarcity of wooden boats made the loss Saturday of what many considered Newport Harbor's most recognizable wooden vessel — the tugboat William B — even more troubling for those who love handmade watercraft. William B, which was built in 1942 to pull ships in World War II, was destroyed in an early morning fire while docked at its regular mooring.
"Wood boats have lives of their own," Avery said. "There's a soul there. That's how people felt about the William B. It's a horrible loss for our harbor."
When commercial fishing was big business in Newport Beach before the 1960s, wooden boats — with their sleek varnish and distinctive style — were the vessels to own, harbor experts say. And with their nearly constant maintenance and handmade custom parts, they weren't cheap.
"Prior to the 1960s, yachts were owned by the few and the wealthy because they were built one at a time," said David La Montagne, chairman of the Newport Beach Wooden Boat Festival, an annual event created nearly three years ago with the aim of fostering an appreciation for wooden vessels.
But as boat aficionados would come to realize, the future was in fiberglass.
With the new technology, boats could be built and maintained for a fraction of the cost, making them more affordable for the average enthusiast, La Montagne said. With an increase in boats bearing the inexpensive technology, wooden boats became vintage watercraft.
But not all boaters have lost their penchant for wooden vessels.
In the 1980s, Gary Hill, who owns Hill's Boat Service in Balboa Village, bought the 76-foot William B, his friends say. Hill did not return messages seeking comment.
"Gary bought it in a state of distress and restored it to be a classic family yacht that his friends and family could enjoy," Avery said.
Crews fought the fire that engulfed the William B for about five hours Saturday, according to Orange County sheriff's Lt. Jeff Hallock.
"They would get the fire out and it would immediately reignite," he said. "It was stubborn."
The cause of the fire is under investigation. No one was injured, but the boat was considered a total loss, according to authorities.
Those who frequent the harbor mourned the vessel, which now rests just below the water's surface as crews drain what's left of its fuel and prepare it to be towed away.
Bill Moses, a member of the Newport Beach Mooring Assn. and the Newport Harbor Yacht Club, said the William B often was the focal point of activities in the harbor.
Newport Harbor is still home to wood boats, many of which are celebrated during the Wooden Boat Festival in June. However, Moses said he can't think of any vessel that compares to Hill's 1942 tugboat.
"Its profile is unmistakable to any other boat in Newport," he said. "It harks back to the day when wood vessels were something that were more common and had more soul to them than the fiberglass monstrosities we see today."


Unwarranted confidence in human ability is a product of fallen human nature. This false confidence now fills the evangelical world; from the self-esteem gospel, to the health and wealth gospel, from those who have transformed the gospel into a product to be sold and sinners into consumers who want to buy, to others who treat Christian faith as being true simply because it works. This silences the doctrine of justification regardless of the official commitments of our churches. God's grace in Christ is not merely necessary but is the sole efficient cause of salvation. We confess that human beings are born spiritually dead and are incapable even of cooperating with regenerating grace.

May 15, 2020 | EASTERN PILOT
At least five persons were feared killed in an ongoing ethnic violence in Tinno community, in Lamurde Local Government Area of Adamawa State.
Residents told PREMIUM TIMES violence erupted following a disagreement between the Hausa community and Chabo tribe, after a motorcycle accident.
A source said, "The violence began around 9:a.m Friday and the fighting is still going as of 3:p.m. You can hear the sound of gunshots from the background as we talk."

This achievement will be the very last one you get in the game. There's no tracker for kills earned in the campaign mode however in endless, it'll tally all kills you earn in each 4 maps; eg. You get 500 kills on beach first time and then come back and get another 300. It'll show your total of 800 on that map and will do so for the other 3.
When you finish campaign you should be roughly at 5k kills give or take if you dies/failed during your playthrough(story takes just shy of three hours to complete). Meaning you need about 25k kills in endless mode which is the quickest way for the remaining. The map doesn't seem to matter too much in which will profit the most kills. You should earn about 4k kills per hour of non-stop gameplay. Meaning this will take you about another 6 hours once the story is done.
Good luck everyone who's curious on what it'll take to complete this game.

MSU expert: Protect yourself from floodwater contamination
Recent torrential rainfall across the United States has led to flash flooding, filling basements with water and sewage that can contain hundreds of pathogens. Joan Rose, Michigan State University's Homer Nowlin Chair in water research, advises that residents should assume floodwaters are contaminated and that exposure to these waters may raise the risk of diarrhea, dysentery, hepatitis, skin and eye infections, and respiratory disorders.
The first step is to remove floodwater and sewage and dry the affected area, according to Rose. Fans and enhanced ventilation are helpful tools for drying damp structural surfaces. Disinfecting these areas also is important.
"It is important to evaluate items contacted by floodwaters, deciding what to discard and what to keep," Rose said. "Whenever possible, a disinfecting solution of water and chlorine bleach should be applied to the surfaces of saved items."
Joan Rose is an international authority on water microbiology, water quality and public health safety. She can speak on waterborne disease outbreaks and the study of water supplies, treatment, and reclamation. Her applied research also includes the study of microbial pathogens in recreational waters and climatic factors affecting water quality. She can be reached at (517)-432-4412 or rosejo@msu.edu.
To help prevent disease transmission associated with flood cleanup, Rose offers the following tips. When using a disinfecting solution to clean after a flood, remember to:
Wear gloves and protective clothing. Do not touch your face or eyes.
Change the disinfecting solution often and whenever it is cloudy.
Be thorough. Wash and dry everything well.
When finished, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, even if you have worn gloves.
If an item got wet, assume it is contaminated.
Disinfecting works best when all loose dirt and debris are removed first.
Use a disinfecting solution (3/4 cup regular strength chlorine bleach or 1/2 cup concentrated bleach to one gallon of water) to disinfect walls, floors and other surfaces touched by floodwaters. Keep the area wet for at least two minutes, then rinse thoroughly and dry.
Carpets and rugs that have been soaked for more than 24 hours should be discarded. If carpets and rugs were soaked for less than 24 hours, evaluate as follows: Carpets that contacted sewage-contaminated floodwater should be discarded. Carpets contacted only clean basement seepage or lawn runoff into a sub-basement, for example, may be dried and cleaned. Washable throw rugs usually can be cleaned adequately in a washing machine.
When addressing exterior surfaces, such as outdoor furniture, patios, decks and play equipment, keep surfaces wet for 10 minutes (this may mean wetting the surface more than once), then rinse thoroughly and dry.
Chlorine bleach solutions degrade quickly. Be sure to make a fresh solution daily as needed. Unused solution may be discharged into toilet or sink.
Contaminated clothing should be washed in the hottest possible water with detergent and chlorine bleach if fabric instructions permit.

ANDRÉINE BEL
Présentation de Andréine Bel en anglais, publiée sur la page vidéo de sa chorégraphie "Zindegi" (Théâtre de la Minoterie, Marseille, 1992).
Having studied classical ballet for ten years, Andréine Bel began investigating "instinctive movement" in the 1970s on the basis of the Seitai school in Japan and under the guidance of François Malkovsky, a follower of Isadora Duncan. She continued on her own and felt the need to develop dance and expression techniques in a thorough study of North Indian Kathak, for which she joined Kathak Kendra in 1978 and was taught by the celebrated Pandit Birju Maharaj. She participated in the East-West Dance Encounter (Bombay 1984) with Dominique Bagouet, Susanne Linke and other renowned artists.
In 1986 she returned to Europe and founded the "Atelier de Recherche Rythmique et Chorégraphique" (ARRC). The winner of a prize in choreography with "La Légende d'Ys" (1990), she has produced a broad variety of fusion dance items, among which Salaam Lucknow, Zindegi, Okeanos, "Hommage à Olivier Messiaen".
Andréine worked with French theatre groups "Atelier du Possible" and "Wakan Théâtre". With the latter she directed actors in Euripides' Trojanas which was widely acclaimed in fall 1993.
Andréine has trained children and adults in dancing. She also worked with physically and mentally disabled persons.
In January 1993 she was invited by the Society for Dance Research in London. She participated in seminar "Choreographing the Other" and taught a course at the London School of Contemporary Dance. In 1994, she was granted support from Conseil Régional des Bouches du Rhône to create an intercultural dance show, CRONOS, a coproduction of the National Centre for the Performing Arts in Mumbai and Théâtre Toursky in Marseille.
Andréine Bel also introduced contemporary dance in theatre workshops, notably with Natya Ballet Centre and the National School of Drama in New Delhi. She has long been involved in research work on rhythm and expressive techniques, gaining insights into the ancient Indian theory of rasa-bhava.
Returning to the fundamentals of human movement, in 2004 she initiated "Le Tilt" dance-research self-education workshops, in Aix-en-Provence, an outcome of which has been the concept of "Danse forum".

Remember, Remember The 5th of November: The Best Evil Government Movies
Posted by Chris Aitkens | Nov 5, 2020 | Horror Movie Lists, Recommendations |
How do you create an evil government? You can either take a page out of the playbooks of past dictatorships like in Nazi Germany or Communist Russia, or take the current American or British model and raise the nationalism to the maximum setting. An evil government often arises in a time of crisis, offering up a scapegoat or an extremist solution. The citizens desperate for a quick fix willingly vote their party into power and give them carte blanche authority. Once in office, it's important for them to stay in office, and that means crushing any form of dissent in the population. This can be done through an aggressive propaganda campaign that keeps the people dumb and blissfully happy, or by limiting resources and maintaining a gap between the classes, where the rich live in luxury and the poor are too busy surviving day to day to fight back.
Each of the movies I will list below are set in distant dystopian futures, with a government headed by a single authoritarian strongman or by a shadow group of elites working in secret. However, their rule is thwarted by a scrappy band of rebels and/or by someone within the ranks who begins to question why things are the way they are. Some spoilers will be discussed to emphasize how truly evil these governments are. I initially wanted to include other movies like Soylent Green and Repo! The Genetic Opera, but those are more centred on evil unregulated corporations, and that's a list for a different day.
Since it's Guy Fawkes day, we'll start with 2006's V For Vendetta, based on the 1988 graphic novel by Alan Moore and David Lloyd, written in reaction to the United Kingdom under Margaret Thatcher. In the year 2027, the UK is ruled by the neo-fascist Norsefire Party, headed by High Chancellor Adam Sutler (John Hurt), who came into power following a pandemic (sound familiar?) that devastated all of Europe (a virus that Norsefire manufactured and released in order to seize power, blaming it on terrorists). The secret police are ordered to imprison and execute immigrants, homosexuals, atheists, or anyone with a political opinion differing from Norsefire.
The country's only hope rests on V (Hugo Weaving), an anarchist who wears a mask of Guy Fawkes, the man who plotted to assassinate King James I and blow up Parliament in 1605, but was caught and sentenced to death for treason. With the help of Evey (Natalie Portman), an employee at a state-run TV network, V garners enough support from the public and kills off Norsefire's top officials one by one.
1984 / Brazil
Based on the 1949 book by George Orwell, who modeled the novel's authoritarian government after Russia under Joseph Stalin, 1984 depicts an England, renamed Oceania, where the Party, lead by the mysterious Big Brother, monitors every aspect of the citizens' lives with cameras on every street corner and in every home. Even thinking about disobeying Big Brother is deemed a crime. This time, John Hurt plays the story's hero Winston Smith, a lowly worker at the Ministry of Truth, whose job is to rewrite history and destroy any evidence that contradicts the Party's current narrative. He goes against the Party by keeping a secret diary and having a love affair with another party member Julia (Suzanna Hamilton). He's eventually caught by the Thought Police and is tortured until he renounces his love for Julia and admits his love for only Big Brother.
Terry Gilliam's 1985 dark comedy Brazil is loosely based on Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four, though his version is a lot more colorful compared to Michael Radford's bleak adaptation. In this imagining, the country is run by a bureaucratic technocracy, to the point where nothing works because everything is wrapped in red tape, and citizens are told to simply ignore the terrorist bombings happening a few feet away from them. The main character Sam Lowry (Jonathan Pryce) is also a lowly government worker, who falls in love with his upstairs neighbor Jill (Kim Greist). When Jill is accidentally branded a terrorist accomplice due to a printing error, Sam tries to falsify her death records so she won't be pursued by the police. But Sam is then caught, tortured, and lobotomised.
In John Carpenter's 1988 masterpiece, adapted from a short story by Ray Nelson, a drifter (Rowdy Roddy Piper) comes across a pair of sunglasses that allows him to see the world for what it really is: an alien race has disguised themselves as humans and has seized control of the government, the banks and the media. Using satellite signals and subliminal messaging, the aliens have hypnotized the human population to consume, reproduce, obey and to stay asleep. The few humans who are aware have been paid off by the aliens, allowing them to drain the Earth of all its resources while the humans go about their business as usual. Carpenter has said that he made the movie in reaction to Reaganomics, though a lot of the themes are just as relevant today. Unfortunately, the alt-right has hijacked the movie's political message to fit their racist views, prompting Carpenter to reiterate that it's about "yuppies and unrestrained capitalism."
Battle Royale / The Hunger Games
How do you discipline unruly high school students? You can either put them in detention, or you can put them all on an island, give them each a weapon and make them fight to the death until only one remains. Battle Royale is a Japanese cult classic, directed by Kinji Fukasaku, based on a novel by Koushun Takami. The annual death sport is legitimized by the Japanese government, who passed the BR Act as a solution to the nation's education crisis following a major recession. The prime minister orders the military to kidnap a grade nine class, and fit each student with an explosive collar, in case any of them think of escaping during the games.
It's been suggested that Suzanne Collins took the concept of Battle Royale and watered it down for a young adult audience in her book series The Hunger Games, later adapted for the screen. However, it can be argued that President Coriolanus Snow (played by Donald Sutherland) is a much eviler head of state than the Japanese prime minister. By withdrawing resources, each starving district is forced to offer up a child for his glamorized televised death match. If that child successfully kills all the other children, then their district gets to eat.
Speaking of hoarding resources, Immortan Joe is a class act. George Miller's fourth instalment of the Mad Max series, set in a post-apocalyptic desert wasteland, introduces Colonel Joe Moore (Hugh Keays-Byrne), a warlord who rules over the Citadel, where he has access to the last remaining supplies of fresh water. A mishmash of different dictators and cult leaders, Immortan Joe is treated like a god for sparing small amounts of that water on the Citadel's inhabitants. Joe also trades water with the nearby Gas Town and Bullet Farm in exchange for gasoline and ammunition, considered very precious in the wasteland. His personal army are the War Boys, based on the Kamikaze pilots of World War II. The radiated War Boys are indoctrinated from birth to die for Joe in battle for the promise of an afterlife in Valhalla. Yes, Joe has quite the stranglehold on the wasteland, but his empire comes crashing down when he's betrayed by Imperator Furiosa (Charlize Theron), who attempts to drive off with Joe's five wives.
Blumhouse's film series and subsequent television series created by James DeMonaco imagines a United States under the rule of the New Founding Fathers of America. To curb the rise in crime following a massive economic collapse, the NFFA propose setting aside one night every year, in which all crime, including murder, is legal for 12 hours. Americans are told they must purge during that night as a cathartic way of getting out all their pent-up aggression, so that they can work hard for the rest of the year.
As a result of the Purge, the economy is booming and unemployment is near zero, but mostly because the poor are killed off in mass amounts during the national holiday; the working class kill each other, thinking it's their government-given right. Gun-toting trust fund kids hunt down the homeless. Meanwhile, the rich go untouched, huddled up in their mansions with high-tech security systems. To make sure enough poor people die during Purge, the government dispatches heavily-armed militias to poor neighborhoods to break into people's homes and shoot entire families dead, staging the massacres to appear as random acts of violence committed by normal citizens. The true goal of the Purge is exposed thanks to a series of broadcasts by a resistance group led by Carmelo Johns (Michael K. Williams), who seek to end the Purge and hold the NFFA accountable.
(Dis)honorable mentions:
The firemen in Fahrenheit 451 (the 1966 and the 2018 film adaptions) for burning books, therefore limiting the population's knowledge. Governor Vilos Cohaagen (Ronny Cox) in Paul Verhoeven's Total Recall for screwing with people's memories and cutting off the oxygen supply on Mars. Wilford (Ed Harris) in Snowpiercer for slowly killing the passengers in the train's tail by feeding them cockroaches and freezing their limbs off, and for using children as slaves. Mayor Cole (Bill Murray) in City of Ember for secretly hoarding canned food while the rest of the city starves. Greg Stillson (Martin Sheen) in David Cronenberg's adaptation of Stephen King's The Dead Zone for using a kid as a human shield and for setting off a nuclear holocaust (at least in a vision).

The Cork public are urged to join Friday's Climate Strike march

STUDENT climate activists in Cork are urging the public to join a 'climate strike' this weekend.
Students in Cork have been leading the way on climate advocacy in Ireland.
Actions include the global climate strike in March which saw more than 5,000 young people on the streets of Cork to the smaller group of weekly strikers who have been sitting outside City Hall each Friday.
Student activist Darragh Cotter, 17, commented that Cork was "arguably Ireland's climate action capital".
This Friday, Cork youth organisers have set their sights on a different demographic; the general public.
They, along with other youth activists internationally, are asking people of all ages to join the school strikers on the streets for a two-hour march, which will gather on Grand Parade at 12pm and march down South Mall returning to Grand Parade for a rally with music and speakers. "Even if you can't join for the whole thing, if you could come out for an hour or half an hour during your lunch break to show your support, it would mean the world to us," said core organiser Remus Teahan, age 16.
The protesters are calling on the Government to take immediate, radical action on climate change, this would include rapid reduction of Ireland's carbon emissions on a systemic level as well as concepts such as the "just transition"
Saoi O'Connor, age 16, from Skibbereen, who has been called "Ireland's Greta Thunberg", said: "The Irish Government is beginning to realise that this is an issue that they need to be paying attention to, but their plans are not ambitious enough, what we are demanding is bare minimum based on what the science has shown to be necessary, and yet we are said to be too extreme. I do not think it is extreme to believe in science."
O'Connor, whose placard reading "The Emperor Has No Clothes" has become a symbol for the climate strike movement in Ireland, has been striking for 36 weeks, and is one of the core organisers of this Friday's march.

Q: Access variable of child form Using VB.Net
I have about 60 Child forms
Each have a variable with same name.
In Main form I want to set the value of the variable of the active child.
One way of doing that is like
Select Case Me.ActiveMdiChild.Name
  Case "formName"
    frmformName.Variable=0

I donot want to do that as it involves writing many cases and I may miss some.
Is there some other way of doing it .
I tried
Dim O as Object = Me.ActiveMdiChil

O.VariableName= 0

and its various variants but its not working

A: Another way to do that is with an Interface, example:
Public Interface IChildVariable
  Property Variable() As Integer
End Interface

Public Class Form1
  Implements IChildVariable

  Private _MyVariable As Integer

  Public Property Variable() As Integer Implements IChildVariable.Variable
    Get
      Return _MyVariable
    End Get
    Set(ByVal value As Integer)
       _MyVariable = value
    End Set
  End Property
End Class

Then you can just have a single check point:
If TypeOf Me.ActiveMdiChild Is IChildVariable Then
  DirectCast(Me.ActiveMdiChild, IChildVariable).Variable = 0
Else
  ''Throw Exception
End If
