LSC Receives $135 Million Spending Boost in U.S. House of Representatives Bill
Carl Rauscher
Office of Government Relations and Public Affairs
rauscherc@lsc.gov
WASHINGTON – The U.S. House of Representatives passed the FY 2020 Commerce, Justice, Science and Related Agencies (CJS) Appropriations bill today, providing $550 million for the Legal Services Corporation (LSC). This is an increase of $135 million over LSC's current funding and the largest appropriation proposal LSC has ever received in absolute dollars.
This bill follows the Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2019 passed in June that designated $15 million for LSC to fund recovery efforts related to hurricanes, wildfires, earthquakes, tornadoes, floods, and other natural disasters that occurred from 2017-2019. These funds support legal services providers helping disaster survivors access insurance benefits and fight wrongful evictions and consumer scams.
"We are very grateful to the House for recognizing that the Legal Services Corporation promotes the most fundamental of American values – equal justice under law," said LSC President James J. Sandman. "The additional funding would allow more victims of domestic violence to obtain protection orders, more veterans to access the benefits they have earned, and more tenants to avoid unlawful evictions."
More than 90% of the appropriation is allocated for Basic Field grants to fund the direct delivery of legal assistance. LSC distributes most of its funding to 132 independent legal aid organizations serving every county in every state and the territories. These legal aid offices provide critical constituent services to low-income Americans. More than 60% of all cases closed by LSC grantees involve family law matters, such as child custody, child support and adoptions, and housing matters, such as evictions and foreclosures. In 2017, more than 58 million low-income Americans were eligible for LSC-funded legal assistance.
The Senate has not scheduled consideration of any FY 2020 appropriations bills.
Legal Services Corporation (LSC) is an independent nonprofit established by Congress in 1974 to provide financial support for civil legal aid to low-income Americans. The Corporation currently provides funding to 132 independent nonprofit legal aid programs in every state, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories.

Frigo provides an alternative way to look at lifelogging and goes as far as to propose it as an indispensable method for scholars to better sense and understand the complex media-generated landscape around them. The chapter provides a broader historical contextualization of lifelogging and deepens the contemporary discussion on everyday life increasingly governed by sensors and algorithms. Inviting media scholars to embrace technical complexity in an auto-ethnographic fashion, Frigo introduces a set of instructions on how to get started to lifelog as a research method. Lastly, the chapter presents Frigo's own manual lifelogging methodology as a concrete example of information retrieval and subsequent knowledge production.

Most of us have glanced upon the night sky and wondered if there are any other lifeforms out there. Science has shown us that it is highly likely that is the case. However, we don't have the proof yet. Well, China came one step closer to solve the mystery. They just completed the world's largest alien-hunting radio telescope and it is massive!
[pullquote]It's called FAST (Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope) and cost over $180 million to complete.[/pullquote] The huge telescope consists of 4600 triangular panels and is similar in design to the Arecibo Observatory. As can be derived from the name, the telescope's entire diameter measures 500 meters (1,600 ft). Despite its size, FAST's surface panels can adjust to create a parabola aligned with the desired sky direction.
Over 300 invited builders, experts, science fiction enthusiasts and reporters attended the historic moment when the telescope was completed in the southern Chinese province of Guizhou.
Don't expect China to be finding aliens anytime soon as the radio telescope will be used for early-stage research during its initial two years in operation. However, after that, the usage will be broader, and scientists can go alien-hunting on a larger scale.
Before construction could begin, the Chinese government had to displace as many as 9,000 people that lived in the area. For leaving their homes, they received compensation of the tune of $1,800. Not exactly a massive amount of money, however, everyone apparently complied.
Only time will tell whether China will be first to discover life in outer space. One thing is for sure, the eyes of science fiction enthusiasts have now all turned to China for answers. That should be enough to keep the initiative to discover intelligent life in outer space. The pressure is on, China! Don't let us down!
Will we ever find life in outer space? Is it possible that an alien race has sent us a message that we are likely to be able to pick up using radio technology? Let us know what you think in the comment section below.

'Football's Next Star' Ben Greenhalgh on his remarkable career
From acting as Cristiano Ronaldo's body double to joining Jose Mourinho's Inter Milan and missing out on a two-year deal at Tottenham… this is the remarkable story of 'Football's Next Star' Ben Greenhalgh 10 years on from his win on hit Sky show
Ben Greenhalgh won Football's Next Star, a football TV show which aired in 2010
He won a six-month contract with Jose Mourinho's treble-winning Inter Milan
The winger was also offered a two-year deal at Tottenham by Harry Redknapp
At 16, he doubled for Cristiano Ronaldo and he has also worked with Diego Costa
After a whirlwind 10 years, Greenhalgh talks to Sportsmail about his career
At the beginning, Ben Greenhalgh went along for a laugh. Playing football, like any other 17-year-old obsessive, was all he craved. Little did he know then just how his life would take off.
In 2009, the fleet-footed, left-sided winger trialled, or some would say auditioned, for a new reality football show on Sky One called Football's Next Star. The winner would receive a six-month professional contract with soon-to-be treble winners Inter Milan, managed by Jose Mourinho.
If your memory isn't jogged yet, spoiler alert: Greenhalgh won the competition, with the final airing in February 2010 hitting higher ratings than Strictly Come Dancing. Ten years on, 'Football's Next Star' is spending his Tuesday night coaching his Under 18s side at Corinthian FC, a remote club on a farm in rural Kent. And Storm Dennis is howling.
Ben Greenhalgh with then Inter boss Jose Mourinho after winning Football's Next Star in 2010
The 27-year-old being interviewed whilst playing for his current club, Tonbridge Angels
'This was my first proper club. I go from A to B every day in the rain but football is football. Can't beat it,' the 27-year-old tells Sportsmail, as we take a seat in the pitchside dugout, jackets zipped up to the max.
It is a far cry from the heavy heights he once reached. Whether it be doubling for Cristiano Ronaldo, playing under Terry Butcher or being mentored by Jamie Redknapp, he has been privileged to meet some of world football's most famous stars.
On Ronaldo, whom he met a year before his big TV break while working for modelling company Select Sports Artists, he radiates positivity. 'I did a couple of adverts when I was 16 for my coach Mike Delaney, who was a football choreographer,' Greenhalgh tells.
'As I was growing up, I moved more like Ronaldo. I was a winger, who liked to do skills. Admittedly I based myself on him and ended up looking a little bit like him!
'Back then at Manchester United, he was probably more willing than he is now. He hung about for three hours, did keepy-ups with me, showing skills, that's what he was like.'
His most amusing celebrity tale from his fledgling modelling career may not come as a surprise to many however.
Greenhalgh acted as a double for Cristiano Ronaldo during his Manchester United days
'They got me to double for Diego Costa which I wasn't too happy about! Anyway, as they tried to film he kept slide tackling the camera!
'I've never seen anything like it, he was like a little kid in a man's body. I think that's why Chelsea got rid of him simply because [Antonio] Conte couldn't handle him!'
But the most crucial eye he caught was Redknapp, who was impressed with his speed and trickery in that trial match.
'I was lucky enough that Jamie saw something in me. He gave me his phone number and we were chatting the whole time. It did feel surreal, but I surprised myself massively – even when I was out in Italy, I didn't get starstruck.'
The 2,000-player shortlist was ruthlessly trimmed and Greenhalgh jetted off to Italy alongside nine other promising youngsters – 10 players, seven weeks, one contract.
'We were chucked in a mansion, cameras everywhere, a bunch of boys who'd never met each other before. Realistically we were living the dream.'
The show was a massive hit, in particular the X-Factor style 'danger-zone' which concluded every episode. One-by-one, the shortlist was narrowed by Inter youth coach Marco Monti; the show's very own Simon Cowell. Was this a gameshow, or a genuine talent-spotting masterstroke?

'The danger-zone was three minutes of footage, but it took about two hours to film,' Greenhalgh explains. 'You did a different angle, you stood up, sat back down again and by that point you knew you were in the danger-zone.
'It was definitely nerve-racking. Sometimes when I watch these shows now, people play up to the cameras but we didn't do that.
'Early on, we were watching the first-team train when they needed another body. I got the call over, and I remember receiving the ball from [Ricardo] Quaresma. I started running at Lucio and my legs turned to jelly! I looked up and realised who I was trying to dribble past.'
Simply put, for a 17-year-old footballer it was fantasy land, all documented for national entertainment. After winning, he spent time training with the first-team during the 2009-10 season, the most successful in the history of Italian football. He even received a Champions League winners medal.

'To this day, those memories you can't compete with,' he reminisces. 'I was quite level-headed when training with the first-team, I knew where I was and where they were. Everyone was so respectful of Mourinho. Those he didn't like, he'd freeze out.'
So brace yourselves folks, it's storytime with our regular maverick, Mario Balotelli.
'Balotelli was 19, a bit older than me,' he tells. 'He couldn't acclimatise himself to not playing. He came on for 15 minutes in the Champions League semi-final first-leg against Barcelona and after a 3-1 win, he spat on his Inter shirt and threw it in the ground. Like, what has gone through his head?'

Greenhalgh couldn't make the meteoric breakthrough at Inter, but thoroughly enjoyed his time on-loan at Serie C club Como. He quickly learned the language, and was keen on signing permanently on the northern border. If only it wasn't for the match-fixing and financial turmoil.
'We had a guy come in and said we were meant to draw. I asked the boys "is this serious?" They said "not really" but we ended up drawing the game. Maybe a few players were in on it.
'It's a shame because when you look at Italian football, it does come across as quite boring. Is it boring because all the players know what they want to happen?'
He returned home to Kent where his new-found fame meant he tended to be stopped in the streets. The 'top 10 celebrities in Orpington', as he puts it.
Yet still, despite the experience of a lifetime, failing to win the show could actually have given him a bigger break. A two-year deal at Tottenham was on the table from Harry Redknapp.
Harry Redknapp was prepared to offer Greenhalgh a two-year deal if he didn't win the show
The 17-year-old formed a close bond with the host of Football's Next Star, Jamie Redknapp (L)
He openly admits: 'Jamie said if I hadn't won, I could've had a two-year deal at Tottenham. I never look back on it. Football can take you on so many different journeys.'
Indeed it can. From Brighton's development squad playing with Lewis Dunk, to a period under Butcher at Inverness Caledonian Thistle and then the rigours of sourcing your next paycheck in non-league football, Greenhalgh has seen it all.
'If anyone asks me what my best time in football was, I'd say it was Inverness. We were in the middle of nowhere, we saw each other every day and the best thing was Terry Butcher bought into the culture of the changing room.
'The changing room matters. Terry was one of the most honest, most truthful men. You did not want to do wrong by him or let him down.'
BEN GREENHALGH'S CAREER
Welling Utd (2009-10, 2012)
Inter Milan (2010-11)
Como (2010, LOAN)
Ebbsfleet United (2012-13)
Maidstone United (2013, 2014-15, 2016-17)
Concord Rangers (2013, 2015-16, 2017-18)
Inverness Caledonian Thistle (2013-14)
Stenhousemuir (2014, LOAN)
Hemel Hempstead Town (2017)
Dartford (2018-20)
Tonbridge Angels (2019 LOAN, 2020-current)
TOTAL – 11 clubs
Let him down he did not, but upon Butcher leaving for Hibernian in November 2013, Greenhalgh was frozen out under successor John Hughes and moved back down south, carving out a career at semi-pro level. A standard he still excels in now.
He has just moved from Dartford – where he coaches at the club's academy – to Tonbridge Angels, in the National League South. He wants to play until the age of 40 but he admits his future lies in coaching and he will take his UEFA B Badge next year.
For the whirlwind decade Greenhalgh has experienced, Football's Next Star on the other hand was a one-series wonder. A second season, supposedly involving Manchester City, did not materialise.
'To this day, I don't know why there isn't more football shows. I guess what they struggle with is keeping the reality the reality. It's frustrating because being picked up is so difficult.
'Football is a brutal career. Every Saturday, at every level, there is someone shouting at someone, finishing their career.'
As for the man himself, the future looks set to be immersed in the game he loves and has never left.
'I'd like to say top-flight management,' he ambitiously states. 'A big inspiration for me and one of the best managers I ever played under was Danny Cowley at Concord Rangers. He's now at Huddersfield and he is someone who keeps going up and you don't see that in management careers – there's always a drop.

The semi-pro footballer and coach talks to Sportsmail at Corinthian FC about his career
'But one thing I learned from him was his energy and his love for football. Non-stop, and always positive. He got the most out of me in just 12 weeks.'
It is at this point in the interview when a club official sprints over to ask: 'Ben, have you done the teamsheet?' The answer is an emphatic no, and as we dash across the pitch to the changing rooms, the heavens open. Bang on cue.
He may not be turning heads in the Mediterranean heat, but it turns out Ben Greenhalgh is right. No matter where or when, in sun or in rain, football is football.

ROSALES-MIRELES v. UNITED STATES – CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT
Federal Appeals
No. 16–9493. Argued February 21, 2018—Decided June 18, 2018
Each year, district courts sentence thousands of individuals to imprisonment for violations of federal law. To help ensure certainty and fairness in those sentences, federal district courts are required to consider the advisory United States Sentencing Guidelines. Prior to sentencing, the United States Probation Office prepares a pre-sentence investigation report to help the court determine the applicable Guidelines range. Ultimately, the district court is responsible for ensuring the Guidelines range it considers is correct. At times, however, an error in the calculation of the Guidelines range goes unnoticed by the court and the parties. On appeal, such errors not raised in the district court may be remedied under Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 52(b), provided that, as established in United States v. Olano, 507 U. S. 725: (1) the error was not "intentionally relinquished or abandoned," (2) the error is plain, and (3) the error "affected the defendant's substantial rights," Molina-Martinez v. United States, 578
S. ___, ___. If those conditions are met, "the court of appeals should exercise its discretion to correct the forfeited error if the error ' "seriously affects the fairness, integrity or public reputation of judicial proceedings." ' " Id., at ___. This last consideration is often called Olano's fourth prong. The issue here is when a Guidelines error that satisfies Olano's first three conditions warrants relief under the fourth prong.
Petitioner Florencio Rosales-Mireles pleaded guilty to illegal reentry into the United States. In calculating the Guidelines range, the Probation Office's presentence report mistakenly counted a state misdemeanor conviction twice. As a result, the report yielded a Guidelines range of 77 to 96 months, when the correctly calculated range would have been 70 to 87 months. Rosales-Mireles did not object to the error in the District Court, which relied on the miscalculated Guidelines range and sentenced him to 78 months of imprisonment. On appeal, Rosales-Mireles challenged the incorrect Guidelines range for the first time. The Fifth Circuit found that the Guidelines error was plain and that it affected Rosales-Mireles' substantial rights because there was a "reasonable probability that he would have been subject to a different sentence but for the error." The Fifth Circuit nevertheless declined to remand the case for resentencing, concluding that Rosales-Mireles had not established that the error would seriously affect the fairness, integrity, or public reputation of judicial proceedings because neither the error nor the resulting sentence "would shock the conscience."
Held: A miscalculation of a Guidelines sentencing range that has been determined to be plain and to affect a defendant's substantial rights calls for a court of appeals to exercise its discretion under Rule 52(b)to vacate the defendant's sentence in the ordinary case. Pp. 6–15.
(a) Although "Rule 52(b) is permissive, not mandatory," Olano, 507
S., at 735, it is well established that courts "should" correct a forfeited plain error affecting substantial rights "if the error 'seriously affect[s] the fairness, integrity or public reputation of judicial proceedings,' " id., at 736. Like the narrow rule rejected in Olano, which would have called for relief only for a miscarriage of justice, the Fifth Circuit's shock-the-conscience standard too narrowly confines the extent of the court of appeals' discretion. It is not reflected in Rule 52(b), nor in how the plain-error doctrine has been applied by this Court, which has reversed judgments for plain error based on inadvertent or unintentional errors by the court or the parties below and has remanded cases involving such errors, including sentencing errors, for consideration of Olano's fourth prong. The errors are not required to amount to a "powerful indictment" of the system. The Fifth Circuit's emphasis on the district judge's "competence or integrity" also unnecessarily narrows Olano's instruction to correct an error if it seriously affects "judicial proceedings." Pp. 6–8.
(b) The effect of the Fifth Circuit's heightened standard is especially pronounced in cases like this one. An error resulting in a higher range than the Guidelines provide usually establishes a reasonable probability that a defendant will serve a prison sentence greater than "necessary" to fulfill the purposes of incarceration, 18 U. S. C. §3553(a). See Molina-Martinez, 578 U. S., at ___. That risk of unnecessary deprivation of liberty particularly undermines the fairness,integrity, or public reputation of judicial proceedings in the context of a plain Guidelines error because Guidelines miscalculations ultimately result from judicial error, as the district court is charged in the first instance with ensuring the Guidelines range it considers is correct. Moreover, remands for resentencing are relatively inexpensive proceedings compared to remands for retrial. Ensuring the accuracy of Guidelines determinations also furthers the Sentencing Commission's goal of achieving uniformity and proportionality in sentencing more broadly, since including uncorrected sentences based on incorrect Guidelines ranges in the data the Commission collects could undermine the Commission's ability to make appropriate revisions to the Guidelines. Because any exercise of discretion at the fourth prong of Olano inherently requires "a case-specific and fact-intensive" inquiry, Puckett v. United States, 556 U. S. 129, 142, countervailing factors may satisfy the court of appeals that the fairness, integrity,and public reputation of the proceedings will be preserved absent correction. But there are no such factors in this case. Pp. 8–11.
(c) The Government and dissent maintain that even though the Fifth Circuit's standard was inaccurate, Rosales-Mireles is still not entitled to relief. But their arguments are unpersuasive. They caution that granting this type of relief would be inconsistent with the Court's statements that discretion under Rule 52(b) should be exercised "sparingly," Jones v. United States, 527 U. S. 373, 389, and reserved for "exceptional circumstances," Meyer v. Kenmore Granville Hotel Co., 297 U. S. 160. In contrast to the Jones remand, however, no additional jury proceedings would be required in a remand for re-sentencing based on a Guidelines miscalculation. Plus, the circumstances of Rosales-Mireles' case are exceptional under this Court's precedent, as they are reasonably likely to have resulted in a longer prison sentence than necessary and there are no countervailing factors that otherwise further the fairness, integrity, or public reputation of judicial proceedings.
The Government and dissent also assert that Rosales-Mireles' sentence is presumptively reasonable because it falls within the corrected Guidelines range. But a court of appeals can consider a sentence's substantive reasonableness only after it ensures "that the district court committed no significant procedural error, such as failing to calculate (or improperly calculating) the Guidelines range." Gall v. United States, 552 U. S. 38, 51. If a district court cannot properly determine whether, considering all sentencing factors, including the correct Guidelines range, a sentence is "sufficient, but not greater than necessary," 18 U. S. C. §3553(a), the resulting sentence would not bear the reliability that would support a"presumption of reasonableness" on review. See 552 U. S., at 51. And regardless of its ultimate reasonableness, a sentence that lacks reliability because of unjust procedures may well undermine public perception of the proceedings.
Finally, the Government and dissent maintain that the Court's decision will create an opportunity for "sandbagging" that Rule 52(b) is supposed to prevent. But that concern fails to account for the realities at play in sentencing proceedings, where it is highly speculative that a defendant would benefit from a strategy of deliberately forgoing an objection in the district court, with hopes of arguing for reversal under plain-error review later. Pp. 12–14.

K9 Diesel
The Webster Police Department's first K9 was a German Shepherd named K9 Dfienbaker (Dee) and was retired in 2000. After a long break, the K9 program was reinstated under Chief Bent in 2007.
In mid July a Dutch Shepherd named "Diesel," arrived and became the second police dog in department history. Both Officer Suss and K9 Diesel certified with the United States Police Canine Association as a police tracking dog team. In just a few months, Diesel reminded the WPD how useful a K9 can be to its members.
On October 26, 2007 Diesel successfully tracked and located a key piece of evidence which led to the arrests of three individuals for multiple home burglaries. Thousands of dollars of property was also recovered and returned to the victims.
On December 27, 2007 Diesel assisted the neighboring Town of Oxford in tracking an intoxicated teenager who fled his residence after a domestic dispute. The teen passed out in the woods wearing only a t-shirt and no shoes. He subsequently lost consciousness amid the snow in single digit temperature and was in the beginning stages of hypothermia. Diesel located the teen and was later credited with saving his life.
January 5, 2008 Diesel was replaced by K9 Red. Unfortunately Diesel did not pass prescreening suitability tests for the Boston K9 Academy. More specifically Diesel had a fear of slippery and shiny floors which it couldn't be guaranteed he would overcome. Faced with a tough decision, especially since Diesel had good success, the decision was made to search for another K9.

SP AF17-50mm F/2.8 XR Di II?VC LD Aspherical [IF] (Model B005), a high speed f/2.8 wide-to-moderate-telephoto zoom lens designed exclusively for digital SLR cameras with smaller sensors.
Di II (Digitally integrated design): Di II lenses are designed exclusively for use with digital SLR cameras (equivalent to APS-C size), and employ an optical system optimized for the characteristics of those cameras. Di II lenses are not designed for use with digital SLR cameras with image sensors larger than APS-C size or 35 mm film SLR cameras.
The previously announced, still, currently, available Tamron SP 17-50mm F/2.8 XR Di II (Model A16) boasts superlative optical performance for a fast standard zoom lens and has been acclaimed worldwide as a masterpiece of compact optical design. In developing the new Tamron SP 17-50mm F/2.8 XR Di II VC zoom, the primary goal was to maintain this incredible compactness and ease-of-use while simultaneously enhancing its convenience and expanding its performance envelope. As a result of concerted efforts, the engineers were able to incorporate Tamron's proprietary state-of-the-art Vibration Compensation (VC) image stabilization mechanism into the new lens without materially increasing its size and weight. As a result of this success, the SP 17-50mm F/2.8 XR Di II VC makes sharp hand-held photography possible under a vastly expanded range of photographic situations.
While the size of a lens tends to increase when it's equipped with an image stabilizer unit, Tamron has kept this lens as compact as possible through improvements to optical, mechanical and VC designs, thus achieving a remarkably compact size with a filter thread of 72mm.
Since the new Tamron 17-50mm VC lens is a large diameter f/2.8 zoom, the optical image stabilization system is also relatively large compared with previous VC lenses. To achieve the same anti-shake effect as the renowned VC mechanism incorporated into Tamron's high power zoom lenses- models B003 and A20- the engineers had to enhance the VC unit itself, the mechanism that controls the optical image stabilization system. This initially led to an increase in size compared with existing lenses. It was, therefore, necessary to reduce the size of the VC unit while at the same time increasing its torque of driving power. This could only be achieved by bringing to all of Tamron's advanced engineering capabilities that had enabled is to produce high-power zoom lenses and light, compact, high-speed standard zooms. After a prolonged program of development entailing exhaustive research and tireless testing, Tamron's engineers finally achieved their goal, a fast, compact zoom lens with a filter thread of 72mm incorporating both a large f/2.8 maximum aperture and an effective Vibration Compensation mechanism.
This stunning achievement entailed innovations in both manufacturing technology and production engineering, including improvements to the precision, weight, and strength of the lens' components. The result: The Tamron SP AF17-50mm F/2.8 XR Di II VC, an extraordinarily complex lens to manufacture but a joy to use.
With its innovative use of XR (Extra Refractive Index) glass, Tamron has optimized the overall optical power distribution and reduced the size of the lens, while at the same time implementing advanced correction of optical aberrations. In addition, the optimized positioning of three compound aspheric elements has enabled further shortening and compression of the entire optical system while maintaining outstanding imaging performance. Two LD (low dispersion) lens elements are also employed to make effective corrections for axial chromatic aberrations and chromatic aberrations due to magnification, a major factor in enhancing optical quality in digital photography. The result: excellent image performance throughout the zoom range.
The fall-off in peripheral brightness that limits resolution in wide-angle shooting is very well controlled, resulting in excellent image detail from the centre to the outer edges and corners of the image field.
As an SP Di II class lens, this lens delivers top imaging performance in all key parameters--high resolution, high contrast, and excellent detail rendition.
The latest BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) multi-layer coatings are used to reduce reflection from the lens, ensuring excellent performance in all photographic conditions. The coatings enhance light transmission in both the short wavelength and long wavelength ranges. In addition, internal surface coatings (coatings on cemented surfaces of lens elements) have been applied to all cemented surfaces, for sharpness, optimum colour reproduction performance and excellent colour balance.
Even with its VC image stabilization optical system, this lens delivers a minimum focus distance of 11.4" over the entire zoom range, enabling stress-free close-up photography. The maximum magnification ratio at 50mm is 1:4.8.
A simple, classic design with a smooth silhouette has been adopted to ensure that this lens combines well with various SLR cameras. The highest quality textured paint has been used to give a superb finish to the exterior.
The lens includes Tamron's zoom lock mechanism to prevent the lens barrel from extending by its own weight when the lens is being carried on the camera pointing downward.
The flower-shaped hood is ideally matched to the frame of the viewfinder screen to effectively block damaging light rays coming in from outside the borders of the image area, ensuring clear, sharp flare-free performance. The hood is provided as a standard accessory.
This lens enables photography of virtually the same range as that when using a lens with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.1 on a full frame format camera, as APS-C size image sensors are smaller than 35mm film.

Q: Decoding (javascript) source maps I have been puzzling over the following image found here

And the following description how it was supposed to work:

The above diagram AAgBC once processed further would return 0, 0, 32, 16, 1 – the 32 being the continuation bit that helps build the following value of 16. B purely decoded in Base64 is 1. So the important values that are used are 0, 0, 16, 1. This then lets us know that line 1 (lines are kept count by the semi colons) column 0 of the generated file maps to file 0 (array of files 0 is foo.js), line 16 at column 1.

I vaguely understands why B was converted to 16, but what is C? and how did that get converted to 1?

A: The explanation on that page is very confusing. A key thing it forgets to mention is that the base64 and VLQ system is based on a 6-bit alphabet instead of the usual 8-bit alphabet; for example the base64 data is incompatible with "normal" base64 decoders like JavaScript's own atob function (atob("AAgBC") produces an error). I think this page offers a better explanation.
Suppose we have a function decodeLine() to decode the numbers for a single line, "IACH,mBAA0B,CAAS,EAAE,SAAgB". This is only half the battle, as each of the arrays-of-4 (or arrays-of-5) is relative to the previous array-of-4.
In this example the first base64 string "IACH" represents the array [4,0,1,-3], but this information is useless by itself because it is relative to the previous array-of-4 (except for the first number, which is reset to 0 at the beginning of each line). So if the sum of the previous arrays-of-4 was [11,1,10,3], we can compute that the real meaning of "IACH" is [4, 1+0, 10+1,3+-3] = [4,1,11,0] - which means "output column 4 corresponds to source file 1, source line 11, source column 0". Similarly, "mBAA0B" decodes to [19,0,0,26] which is added to [4,1,11,0] to get [23,1,11,26] which means "output column 23 corresponds to source file 1, source line 11, source column 26".
So here I have written code to decode an entire "mappings" string. It has two parts, decodeLine to decode a single line and scanMappings to decode all the lines and call a function for each decoded set of 6 values (line, column, source file, source line, source column, and optional name index):

function decodeLine(line) {
  function digit(c) { return atob("AAA"+c).charCodeAt(2); }
  if (line==="") return [];
  return line.split(",").map(token => {
    var output = [], num;
    for (var i = 0; i < token.length;) {
      var v = 0, shift = 0;
      do {
        var d = digit(token[i++]);  // d = next 6-bit value decoded from base64
        v |= (d & 31) << shift;     // put lowest 5 bits of d into v
      } while (shift += 5, d & 32); // repeat if high bit of d is set
      output.push(v & 1 ? -(v >> 1) : v >> 1); // low bit is sign
    }
    return output;
  });
}
function scanMappings(data, callback) {
  var lines = data.split(";"), output = [];
  var sum = [0,0,0,0,0];
  for (var line = 0; line < lines.length; line++) {
    sum[0] = 0;
    decodeLine(lines[line]).forEach(p => {
      for (var i = 0; i < p.length; i++) sum[i] += p[i];
      callback(line, ...sum);
    })
  }
}

// Example taken from one of my TypeScript files
console.log(JSON.stringify(decodeLine("IACH,mBAA0B,CAAS,EAAE,SAAgB")));
scanMappings(
 ";;;;;;;;;;;ICAA;;;;;;;;;;OAUG;IACH,mBAA0B,CAAS,EAAE,SAAgB;QACnD,uEAAuE",
  (line,col,srcFile,srcLine,srcCol) =>
    console.log(`(${line},${col}) is from src file ${srcFile} at (${srcLine},${srcCol})`));

The lines and columns are zero-based. The specification is here.

The revitalisation roles of Māori-medium whānau
Bryant, Braden
Bryant, B. (2017). The revitalisation roles of Māori-medium whānau (Thesis, Master of Arts (MA)). University of Waikato, Hamilton, New Zealand. Retrieved from https://hdl.handle.net/10289/11536
For over a century and a half, te reo Māori (the Māori language) has suffered from linguistic marginalisation, causing significant language shift to English, and, with it, generations of Māori who are unable to speak their indigenous language. While efforts since the 1970s to rebuild te reo Māori have primarily focused on educational initiatives such as kōhanga reo and kura kaupapa, there is now a move to shift the revitalisation strategy towards encouraging te reo Māori use in the home, and to rebuilding the language intergenerationally. Unfortunately, little is known about whānau perceptions regarding te reo Māori revitalisation, which is what this research investigates.
This research investigates five whānau who have committed their children to Māori-medium education. It aims to understand what influenced their decision-making around Māori-medium and what they see as the key benefits for their children. It also looks at what whānau consider to be obstacles regarding their use of te reo Māori, and at their commitment to Māori-medium education. Finally, this research aims to uncover how whānau perceive the wider revitalisation effort, and their roles in it.
The qualitative method of semi-structured interviews was used to conduct this research. The conversational nature of this method gives whānau the freedom to express their beliefs, while remaining on the main themes of this study. As the participants and themes of this research are Māori, the study used Kaupapa Māori theory and principles to guide it. This supported the overall aim of aligning with Māori aspirations, and safeguarding participants from exploitation.
This research found that perceptions of whānau often reflected the extent to which they had been affected by intergenerational language shift. Whānau still highly affected by language shift, and whose te reo Māori is less normalised in the home, prioritised te reo Māori learning at school as the key benefit of Māori-medium education. This group also faced more opposition to their Māori-medium choices from friends and whānau, and perceived their revitalisation roles to be more concerned with the immediate whānau. By contrast, the whānau who had managed to regenerate te reo Māori in their homes to a greater extent placed more emphasis on tikanga and values as benefits of Māori-medium education. They identified opposition from friends and whānau as a barrier to their promotion of te reo Māori, while also identifying their own subconscious lapses into English as a major barrier to maintaining normalised te reo Māori environments for their children. Finally, they perceived their revitalisation roles as revolving around normalising te reo Māori for their whānau and for their communities. They played important roles in establishing language domains for further use of what is their home language.
This small study shows the importance of understanding the perceptions of those who are central to the regeneration of te reo Māori because they are the key agents of successful change, and have the attitudes and skills to do so. A larger study would provide more data to support the formation of new language revitalisation strategies.

Rest day on the schedule today....and I still need it! Boo. Actually, I'm in taper mode so no running until Sunday. Leg is feeling a little better today.
This past weekend I was up north and on the way I stopped at the North Face outlet store. Sometimes you really need to look hard but you can find some deals. I was able to find a "Better than Naked" running jacket!!!! This this is really nice and also thin and will be great to wear this fall/winter.
I even got 40% off the SALE price! These are originally $129 and I got mine for $61 out the door! This is the model without the hood(seen in their current ads) which I really did not want anyway. Here's the jacket I wore last year and the one I will again wear this year - better for much colder weather. This is the Northface Apex Climateblock Full Zip winter running jacket. $159 and worth every single penny. I would buy two if I could afford it. I don't know why I'm partial to Northface for running jackets since I don't own anything else made by them but the quality is excellent.
Me last year after a winter run!
I'll give you a full review on the Better than Naked jacket in a few months after using it but it's incredible comfortable and very thin and will get lots of use.
Question of the day? What do you run with in cold weather?
Now if I'm running on Table Mountain in mid winter as the cold fronts are rolling in I do have a Capestorm Helium jacket with me, but it's in my pack.
Where is the outlet? Birchrun? Nice jacket!! Maybe I should get one for my first winter runs this year! Good Luck on Sunday!!
Reminded me that I need to start shopping for new winter running gear.
Sweet jacket! I usually wear a thermal jacket and tights when I run in the winter. I really need to get some running gloves.
Stop with the winter references! LOL, we'll be there soon enough.
Coach Dion - I've thought of getting a buff!
RR - gloves are a must.

Дадиља из пакла 2: Краљица смрти () амерички је црно-хумористички хорор филм из 2020. године, редитеља и продуцента Макџија, по сценарију који је написао са Деном Лаганом, Бредом Морисом и Џимијем Ворденом. Наставак је филма Дадиља из пакла из 2017. године, а главне улоге играју Џуда Луис, Емили Алин Линд, Џена Ортега, Роби Амел, Ендру Бачлор, Лесли Биб, Хана Меј Ли, Бела Торн, Самара Вивинг и Кен Марино. Филм наставља причу о Колу Џонсону, две године након догађаја из првог филма, који мора поново да се бори да би осигурао свој опстанак након што је тајна несахрањена, док га прогоне демонски непријатељи, стари и нови.

Филм је објављен 10. септембра 2020. године на -{Netflix}--у и добио је углавном негативне критике. Трећи филм је у развоју.

Радња
Две године након што је сатанистички култ који је предводила његова бивша бебиситерка, Би, покушао да га убије, Кол је ученик средње школе. Он не успева да убеди никога, осим своје најбоље пријатељице, Мелани, у Биину по живот опасну заверу; његови родитељи и већина других мисле да је имао психотични прекид. Након што открије да су га родитељи уписали у психијатријску школу, бежи са Мелани, заједно са њеним новим дечком, Џимијем, и њиховим пријатељима, Бум-Бум и Дијегом, да се придруже забави на језеру.

На забави, Кол је сведок доласка нове ученице, Фиби, на језеро, након што је пронашла плишану играчку и упутства до језера. Касније, Колови пријатељи играју игру на чамцу, када Мелани изненада убије Бум-Бум удицом за чамце и сакупља њену крв. Мелани, Џими и Дијего откривају да су чланови култа. Са Бум-Бумином крвљу као жртвом, потребна им је Колова крв као принос "невиног" да би остварили своје жеље. Појављују се и оригинални култисти, Сонја, Алисон, Макс и Џон, који су васкрсли да би могли да учествују у ритуалу до изласка Сунца. Међутим, Фиби се изненада појављује, тражећи бензин за свој џет-ски, и даје Колу мало времена да избегне чланове култа и побегне са Фиби на њеном џет-скију.

Када дође на копно, Кол све објашњава Фиби, која му верује, док их култисти јуре. Сонја прва покушава да их убије, али они је на крају прегазе аутомобилом, који је оставио странац, и одрубе јој главу даском за сурфовање. Алисон их проналази, али је њих двоје заробљавају између уског клина стена и откидају јој главу. Њих двоје се укрцавају у чамац и одлазе, али Макс хвата сплав причвршћен за задњи део чамца и успева да се попне на чамац. Међутим, Фиби га запали конзервом лепљивог канапа и упаљачем, а затим га раскомада пропелером чамца. Дијего и Џими се натприродно распадају када покушавају да одустану од потере за Колом.

Кол и Фиби стижу у Фибину стару породичну колибу, где се сакривају и надају се да ће сачекати током ноћи. У бункеру кабине, Фиби открива Колу да су њени родитељи погинули јер се она залетела у њих у фаталној саобраћајној несрећи. Кол је теши и њих двоје имају секс. Мелани зове Коловог оца, Арчија, који га је тражио заједно са Меланиним оцем, Хуаном, и лажира да је пијана да би он могао да их покупи, надајући се да ће извући Кола из колибе. Кол и Фиби излазе из бункера наоружани самострелима и Џон се случајно убија када се лустер обруши на њега. Арчи даје Колу лек за спавање и одводи га до свог аутомобила, док Мелани убија Хуана мачетом и хвата Фиби.

Док је стао на пумпи, Кол долази свести, закључава Арчија из аута и вози се назад до језера да спасе Фиби. У ували, Мелани држи Фиби као таоца пре него што се појави Кол и добровољно се пријављује да буде жртвован. Би излази из воде и открива да је она била Фибина дадиља која је одговорна за саобраћајну несрећу у којој су погинули Фибини родитељи. Склопила је договор са Ђаволом да спасе Фибин живот у замену за њену душу. Сонја, Алисон, Макс и Џон поново васкрсавају и, заједно са Мелани, пију Колову крв помешану са Бум-Бомином крвљу. Међутим, пошто је Кол имао секс са Фиби, ритуал се преокреће и њих петоро се топе и распадају. Би, која није пила крв, открива да је све наместила како би Фиби и Кол могли да се уједине и поразе култ, пошто се предомислила након Коловог љубавног признања након њеног првобитног пораза. Међутим, пошто је Би технички још увек демон, она пије крв и распада се да спасе њих двоје. Арчи се појављује и, пошто је био сведок Биине смрти, сада верује да је оно што је Кол рекао истина. Док Сунце излази, Кол и Фиби се грле и љубе, док Арчи поносно гледа.

Recap of Charger Softball Trip to Florida
Photo Courtesy of Charger Athletics
NO. 25 Jovanna Hillman, Junior.
Tyler Wells, Contributing Writer
Though it may not feel like it in the Northeast, it is finally time to welcome spring sports as the New Haven softball team got their campaign underway down in Florida last weekend. The Chargers got to play in five games at the Florida Tech Invitational, and went 2-3 over the weekend, which got their season off to a solid start.
The play opened on Friday, as the Chargers had a doubleheader on tap. Their first game was against the No. 4 overall team in the country, West Florida. The Argos lived up to their early season ranking, and dispatched the Chargers in an 8-0 contest. The Charger bats were stifled in the first game, with only sophomore Ava Fitzmaurice recording a pair of hits.
New Haven bounced back as they faced Palm Beach Atlantic in their second part of the doubleheader. Putting the first game behind them, New Haven rallied from down 2-0 in the first two innings with a four-spot in the third, and took a 4-2 lead. They never looked back en route to a 6-3 victory. Once again, Fitzmaurice led the team but did so in the pitching circle this time, when she struck out three and gave up two earned runs over a complete game.
Competition continued Saturday as the Chargers had another doubleheader, this time against West Georgia and Florida Southern. In the first game against West Georgia, the Chargers were limited offensively, and only collected a single hit from the bat of junior Melissa Bike. In the circle, pitcher Megan Butts kept the Chargers within striking distance, and limited West Georgia to four runs. However, the offense led to another shutout in favor of the Chargers' opponent, and dropped the game 4-0.
The Chargers began to find success against Florida Southern. Simpson and Katrina Aponte stepped up with a pair of hits, but none were bigger than the three-run home run off the bat of Fitzmaurice, who continued her hot start to the season with yet another complete-game victory in the circle. She limited the Mocs to five hits and one run. The Chargers were able to take the game 3-1 and move to an even .500 (2-2) on the season, going into their final day in Florida. If you are planning to go on a avacation know What Life is Like in Ormond Beach, FL.
In their final game in the Sunshine State, New Haven faced off with the Angelo State Rams. While the Chargers collected four hits on the day, they were unable to string any together to put a run on the board. Fitzmaurice and Simpson once again were able to get a base hit, as Jovanna Hillman and Hailey Polisano also each chipped in a single. Getting her first collegiate start, Selena Aponte put together a complete game effort with only allowing six hits and two earned runs. The Charger defense struggled, however, as their two errors allowed two more runs to cross the plate as they dropped the final game 4-0.
The Chargers went 2-3, and faced tough competition that should prepare them for the rest of the season.
The Chargers will be in action next on March 17 at Barton University.

Clydebank kicked off the competitive season with a short journey to Maryhill in the Sectional League Cup this afternoon, and did not disappoint their fans as they picked up all three points in a comfortable 3-1 victory. This was the Bankies 6th consecutive victory over the Hill, who didn't help themselves by ending the match with only 9 men on the park.
Clydebank dithered their way to victory over Glasgow Perthshire at Holm Park in a game where the players never really got going. Had the visitors shown a little more wherewithal in front of goal they may have snatched a draw as they lost out by the odd goal in three.

Internet users. 5 Considering those criticisms, some countries have tried to provide more transparency to the negotiations. For example, the Chilean Government has recently created an "Adjunct Room" providing information, dialogue, and debate with private organizations, NGOs and academia, among others that have directly expressed interest on the TPP. However, the information on the documents under negotiation is still limited. 6 To date, it is difficult to assess the effectiveness of the benefits and harms of this treaty, since negotiations have been conducted in a confidential manner, and supposed features of the treaty derive from some official reports have been made public, 7 or that have been leaked online. 8 This contrasts with the recent negotiations between the US and the EU in the so-called Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) which is subject to regular reporting on an official site specially dedicated to that purpose in the European Union. 9 In any case, the fact is that negotiations on the Trans-Pacific Partnership include an investment chapter. The information available today shows that there are differences on how to address the protection of foreign investment, which is particularly important for Latin America, considering it is one of the areas most affected by investment arbitration and several of its economies comprising the Asia-Pacific region. This article will attempt to expose the magnitude of these differences, under the premise that the TPP does not innovate on the basics of international regulation of foreign investment among countries negotiating the agreement, and can be a valuable opportunity to advance convergence of substantive aspects of the protection of foreign investment in a balanced way, leaving more room for certain public policies, and recognizing the different role that states play as investors and regulators. The effectiveness and depth of this change will depend on the outcome of the negotiations. II. THE REGULATION OF FOREIGN INVESTMENT IN THE TRANS- PACIFIC PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT TPP negotiations have addressed the international regulation of foreign investment, a key issue for all participating countries. Although national laws and policies remain the most concrete and detailed part of the legal structure of foreign investment, the current 5 Citizens Trade Campaign (CTC), 'Trans-Pacific Investment Partnership (TPP) Investment Chapter [leaked Version]' (13 June 2012) accessed 6 November 2014. 6 Directorate General of International Economic Affairs (DIRECON), 'Acuerdo Transpacífico De Libre Comercio (TPP)' (10 March 2015) accessed 25 March 2015. 7 See e.g. United States Trade Representative, 'Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP)' (January 2015) accessed 23 February 2015. 8 Maira Sutton, 'International Criticism Escalates Against TPP As Negotiations Go Further Underground' (Electronic Frontier Foundation, 6 September 2013) accessed 25 March 2015. 9 European Commission, 'Transatlantic Trade And Investment Partnership (TTIP)' (In Focus: The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership. Making Trade Work for You, 29 October 2014) accessed 6 November 2014.
system has come to rely increasingly on international investment agreements (IIAs), treaties that serve as instruments for the promotion, protection and liberalization of foreign investment by establishing standards of protection and treatment. 10 IIAs now exist in three major ways: bilateral investment treaties (BITs) signed by two states; regional investment treaties (RITs) concluded by groups of countries in the same geographical area; and investment chapters integrated into free trade agreements (FTAs), signed either at the bilateral or regional level. 11 UNCTAD has reported that by the end of 2014, the regime of these agreements included a total of 2,923 BITs and 345 "other arrangements", totalling 3,268 international investment agreements, with a downward trend in bilateral investment treaties and upward in regional agreements, especially as part of FTAs. 12 The legal framework of international investment agreements has also evolved significantly since the growing jurisprudence derived from the application of BITs and investment chapters in FTAs, raises new questions of interpretation and application, both for governments and for the investors from developed and developing countries. The number of disputes between foreign investors and host states has increased dramatically in recent times. In 2013, a record high of 59 new international arbitrations investment disputes were initiated pursuant to IIAs, which is the largest number of known cases in a year. 13 Although in 2014 the number of initiated cases was reduced to 42, still is close to the average observed between 2003 and 2010, a data that confirms the trend that foreign investors prefer to use this form of dispute resolution. 14 The first P4 agreement in 2006 did not contain an investment chapter, although its Article 20.1 stipulated the need to negotiate one no more than two years after its entry into force. 15 This meant that negotiations on this matter with the wider group of countries negotiating the TPP started from square one. It was only in the second round of the TPP negotiations that took place in San Francisco on June 14-18, 2010, that an investment working group was established. Since then, numerous exchanges between negotiators have been taking place, which following the sixth round held in Singapore from May 21 to April 1, 2011 started to receive inputs from different stakeholders like 10 Peter T.

Ever wonder why you catch a cold when the weather starts to turn? Believe it or not, your thyroid can be a big factor.
Your thyroid is known to be one of the glands involved in regulating body temperature. It's one of the reasons why low body temperature is often correlated to a lower functioning thyroid gland.
When the external temperature goes up and down- one day hot and one day cold- it puts a great deal of extra stress on your thyroid gland. Think about it for a minute. Your thyroid has to work harder in these conditions to keep your body temperature at its ideal set point. It's kinda like "stop and go traffic" for your thyroid.
D.C. Jarvis writes in Folk Medicine- that all the blood in the human body circulates through the thyroid gland every 7 minutes. And that it is the iodine that is concentrated within the thyroid tissue that acts as an antiseptic bath for the blood. When your thyroid is stressed due to internal or external factors, this germ cleansing action just doesn't happen efficiently.
Here are a few of my top tips to help your thyroid when the weather feels a bit chill.
1. Layer up. It's far better to overdress than underdress. Take a load off your thyroid when the temps go down just by adding some extra layers. You'll be able to better regulate your body temperature and that will help take a load off your thyroid. Wearing a light scarf can really be helpful for a struggling thyroid.
2. Drink garlic tea. This is my all-time favorite cold buster. Just add a couple of cloves of chopped garlic to your tea. I usually make my tea in a quart jar so that I have plenty to sip on all day.
3. Rest. It may not be easy to get every night of the week, but rest really is your best medicine. Your body is designed to rebuild and repair with each and every hour of sleep that you get. The hours before midnight tend to be bonus hours. If you're feeling a little scratchy throat, then throw out your "to-do" list and hit the hay. You'll be so glad that you did.
Now it's your turn. I wonder, how do you keep your thyroid toasty when the chill comes on? Let me know in the comment section.

Edward Snowden Brings Facebook's 2009 Privacy Change, Zuckerberg's 2010 TechCrunch Statements, To Light
Jun 18, 2013 2009, 2010, access, Arrington, Auto, CEO, Edward Snowden, giving, Mark Zuckerberg, michael arrington, New, new york, New York Times, NSA, open, PRISM, Times, video, Wednesday, Yahoo, York Times
Edward Snowden's leak of NSA documents that include information on the PRISM program have shed new light on Facebook's then-new late 2009 privacy policy, and statements early in 2010 where Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said to TechCrunch Founder and then-CEO Michael Arrington that "the age of privacy is over," and made a set of statements that lasted 60 seconds, but sent shivers through the spines of privacy activists at the time.
To put all of what you're about to consume in the proper context, in December of 2009, Facebook rolled out a major privacy update to its platform. The intent was to correct Facebook's then-notoriously confusing privacy controls. But the actual result was observed to be such that Facebook users would wind up selecting an open, public system of their own free will.
On Wednesday, December 9th, TechCrunch's Jascon Kincaid called it Facebook's "Privacy Fiasco," writing "Facebook is giving up its reputation as a 'private' social network — where the default is to restrict access to everything that is shared — in favor of something that can challenge Twitter head on. And, as I wrote last July, it may well be a disaster in the making.
Facebook is spinning the news as a win for users. They're supposedly getting more control than ever over what they're sharing, and it's easier than ever to control it. But that's not the real story. Marshall Kirkpatrick over at ReadWriteWeb has nailed it: this is Facebook's move to push people to share with the public.
And Mr. Kirkpatrick wrote:
Facebook announced this morning that its 350 million users will be prompted to make their status messages and shared content publicly visible to the world at large and search engines. It's a move we expected but the language used in the announcement is near Orwellian. The company says the move is all about helping users protect their privacy and connect with other people, but the new default option is to change from "old settings" to becoming visible to "everyone."…This is not what Facebook users signed up for. It's not about privacy at all, it's about increasing traffic and the visibility of activity on the site.
And the changes Facebook installed in late 2009 were seen as a kind of protecting of themselves from accusations that the company itself was giving up privacy for the public display of information. By, in effect, handing over options to the public with a default that was more open, Facebook's legal claim could be "it's not our fault."
Where all this now ties in with Snowden and PRISM is that, according to his statements and the PRISM document pages that have been released thus far, PRISM's Facebook data collection started June 1st of 2009, then the privacy update, which provides a more open framework for Facebook to legally hide behind, was developed over that time, and rolled out in December of 2009.
Then, at The Crunchies in 2010, and with Michael Arrington determined to ask about Zuckerberg's privacy stance, Mark let loose with his comments that, for all practical purposes, privacy, as we knew it, was over.
Mark said it in my video, as I attended the 2010 Crunchies as press, and had the perfect seat to record what you are about to see and hear, with his privacy talk starting at just after the 2:50 mark:
This is the full text of his privacy comments in the video:
"When I got started in my dorm room at Harvard, the question a lot of people asked was 'why would I want to put any information on the Internet at all? Why would I want to have a website?'
"And then in the last 5 or 6 years, blogging has taken off in a huge way and all these different services that have people sharing all this information. People have really gotten comfortable not only sharing more information and different kinds, but more openly and with more people. That social norm is just something that has evolved over time.
"We view it as our role in the system to constantly be innovating and be updating what our system is to reflect what the current social norms are.
"A lot of companies would be trapped by the conventions and their legacies of what they've built, doing a privacy change – doing a privacy change for 350 million users is not the kind of thing that a lot of companies would do. But we viewed that as a really important thing, to always keep a beginner's mind and what would we do if we were starting the company now and we decided that these would be the social norms now and we just went for it."
That set the policy stage for how Facebook would engage with the U.S. Government in trying to strike a balance between intelligence needs and the concerns of privacy advocates.
Now, the New York Times' Claire Cain Miller writes, on June 7th, that her sources assert that Facebook, with Microsoft, Yahoo, Google, Apple, AOL and Paltalk, came up with a way to give a kind of "locked mailbox" but not direct server access, to the U.S. Government. In a way, it allows the firms to deny giving NSA or any organization server access from a public perspective, all while serving the private intelligence needs of America.
For the record, and to assert this, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg openly denies these claims.
Trouble is, Edward Snowden's out there challenging him, and Mark's own words at TechCrunch Disrupt in 2010 appear to be the window into the real story.

Samuel Kim is the "Most Searched KR New Singer" at the "2017 Yahoo Asia Buzz Awards"
Jessica Lee, Dec. 7, 2017, 11:24 a.m.
If you followed "Produce 101" Season 2 this year, then you'll remember that one of the most-talked-about stories was that Samuel Kim didn't make the final line-up of Wanna One. Luckily, he made his solo debut a few months later and now he's been awarded the "Most Searched KR New Singer" award at the "2017 Yahoo Asia Buzz Awards."
He accepted the award in Hong Kong on December 6 and remarked, "I'm thankful to the '2017 Yahoo Asia Buzz Awards' for allowing me to attend this special event and for giving me this special award. I was only able to receive this award because of my fanclub Garnet, my company staff, my familiy, and the company president. I hope to become a singer who works hard so that I can receive more love."
Samuel Kim recently signed with Pony Canyon to being promotions in Japan. He made a Korean comeback in November with "Eye Candy."
