TONY HETHERINGTON: Son loses cash for bank charge fight
By Tony HeTherington for The Mail on Sunday
Updated: 17:15 EST, 14 August 2010
J. R. writes: Last October, my son was offered assistance by Freeme Limited in recovering bank charges. A representative of the company visited our house and my son paid £295. He was required to supply copies of his bank statements and Freeme would supposedly do the rest, but since then we have had no contact from the company at all.
Welcome to the confused world of claims management companies. Freeme Limited is an English company with its registered office in London, but it traded from offices in Hamilton, Lanarkshire. You and your son are also in Scotland - and geography is crucial to this.
Claims management companies that offer to pursue banks, credit card firms and other financial institutions over alleged mis-selling or overcharging must be licensed by the Ministry of Justice. But this applies only to England and Wales.
Call centre: Freeme Limited operated from this industrial estate in Hamilton
If Freeme had been based in England or Wales it would have needed a licence. If your son was living in England or Wales, Freeme would have needed a licence before approaching him. But with your son and the company in Scotland, there is no vetting and no licensing and the consumer protection laws of the Ministry of Justice do not apply.
Anyway, Freeme is not a claims management company. Despite what its salesman might have said, the company's two directors told me they were doing nothing more than operating a call centre, marketing the services of a completely separate company based in Preston that does have a licence.
So what went wrong? I gave Freeme director William Dick a copy of the receipt his salesman gave to your son. He told me: 'We have never seen that receipt. It is not a receipt that we would give. It is not even the letterheaded paper that we were using. It is obviously one that he [the salesman] had done himself.'
His colleague Damien Miller said: 'We did not know anything about this customer at all. A member of staff who has since been dismissed seems to have taken one of our letterheads. We found out he was apparently doing this kind of thing to other people, taking money for himself and we were never getting to see the customer.'
Freeme is no longer trading and on Tuesday, Companies House will officially announce that it is starting the process of striking it off.
If Freeme did not get your son's £295 and if the receipt was a fake then your son should contact local police.
My annuity was slashed by half overnight
G.P. writes: After saving towards a pension for over 30 years with Zurich, I reached 60. I had been told that my pension plan was worth £42,569, giving me just over £10,000 in tax-free cash and an annuity of £1,778 a year. I thought the £10,000 was great. Zurich recommended Prudential for the annuity and I agreed. I then received a letter showing that while my plan value had risen to £47,338 and the tax-free sum to £11,834, the annuity was only £889.
The root cause of the problem is that the original annuity quote offered a pension of £1,778 just for you. It would end on your death. However, the forms you completed were for an annuity that would transfer to your widow on your death and that is why the figure dropped to £889.
There is a bit more to it than this though. Zurich has told me frankly that it slipped up at the outset by giving you different quotes that were not really comparable as some figures were calculated for a single life and some for joint lives.
In addition, you may do better by shopping around with your fund for the best annuity available. Zurich has sent you £50 as a gesture of goodwill and will let you unscramble the whole deal.
Return the lump sum and the annuity payment you have already received and Zurich will reinstate your pension plan. Then consult a financial adviser for a range of quotes.
Student's rail ticket to trouble
Ms L.M. writes: My daughter Rebecca is 18 and a student. She took a trip from London to Brighton, purchasing her ticket for £21 at London Bridge Underground station. Not long into the journey a ticket inspector informed her she had been given the wrong ticket and he fined her £20. Rebecca produced the receipt from the station, clearly showing she bought a ticket for Brighton, but this was ignored and she had to pay the fine. I contacted Transport for London, who told me to contact the train company, which told me it was Rebecca's fault for not checking her ticket.
The ticket Rebecca received was a London Underground one-day Travelcard, valid for travel on the Tube in Zones 1-4. For the benefit of readers outside London, I should add that these tickets show no destination.
Anyone not used to Tube travel could be forgiven for not understanding it, especially as Rebecca was given at the same time a printed receipt that clearly shows she paid for a ticket to Brighton.
The receipt and the Travelcard show the date and time and were issued just seconds apart.
There is an Independent Penalty Fares Appeals Service, but it is run by London & South Eastern Railway Limited and limits itself to judging whether the correct procedure was issued when the fine was imposed. It takes no notice of the underlying facts.
IPFAS told me: 'While we have sympathy, the rules are clear in that a passenger is required to produce a valid ticket for inspection on request.'
Transport for London, which is responsible for the ticket office Rebecca used, was more helpful.
Its records show the sale of a Travelcard and a Brighton ticket within a minute of each other. Perhaps someone walked away without their Travelcard and Rebecca picked it up by mistake, leaving behind her Brighton ticket.
As a gesture of goodwill, Transport for London will repay Rebecca's £21 fare, in effect covering the cost of the £20 fine. I have emailed you details to start the refund process moving.
The update file
A car-dealing con merchant has been banned from running any limited company for the next 11 years. Andrew Louka, 31, of Chingford in north-east London, was behind Vehiclematch Services Limited and Vehicle Seller UK Limited.
Insolvency Service investigators say both firms contacted people who advertised a car for sale and convinced them they would be introduced to a buyer already on their books if the seller paid a registration fee, typically £79 or £99. Customers complained that after they paid the fee, no buyer appeared.
In 2006 I warned against Vehiclematch after a former salesman told Financial Mail he was simply given a car magazine and told to call everyone advertising a vehicle for sale, giving them the impression that buyers were waiting.
In 2008 I warned against Louka's other company, Vehicle Seller. Both firms are in liquidation.

Carrying his books from one life into the next was nothing new to Zuckerman. He had left his family for Chicago in 1949 carrying in his suitcase the annotated works of Thomas Wolfe and Roget's Thesaurus. Four years later, age twenty, he left Chicago with five cartons of classics, bought secondhand out of his spending money, to be stored in his parents' attic while he served two years in the Army. In 1960, when he was divorced from Betsy, there were thirty cartons to be packed from the shelves no longer his; in 1965, when he was divorced from Virginia, there were just under sixty to cart away; in 1969, he left Bank Street with eighty-one boxes of books.
Carrying 200 pounds of velvet and satin around a stage for 90 minutes - that's man's work, let me tell you.
Carrying a baby is the most rewarding experience a woman can enjoy.
Carrying those double tanks around all the time got to be a little rough on me. I had to put that damn wetsuit on and take it off, sometimes three or four times a day.

After all that carryin' on just gettin' him out and keepin' him alive he wanted to crawl back in my womb and well...I ain't got the room no more even if he could do it. There wasn't space for him in my womb (71).
I try to believe everything I read in the newspapers, but I had difficulty with last week's account of the London vagrant who was found, after death, to be carrying 1,500 in small change in his socks. My reason for doubting the story is that I, too, like to carry small change in my socks, but I have found that with more that 15 or 20 worth it becomes impossible to walk.
The day before is what we bring to the day we're actually living through, life is a matter of carrying along all those days-before just as someone might carry stones, and when we can no longer cope with the load, the work is done, the last day is the only one that is no the day before another day.
I look up at the sky, wondering if I'll catch a glimpse of kindness there, but I don't. All I see are indifferent summer clouds drifting over the Pacific. And they have nothing to say to me. Clouds are always taciturn. I probably shouldn't be looking up at them. What I should be looking at is inside of me. Like staring down into a deep well. Can I see kindness there? No, all I see is my own nature. My own individual, stubborn, uncooperative often self-centered nature that still doubts itself--that, when troubles occur, tries to find something funny, or something nearly funny, about the situation. I've carried this character around like an old suitcase, down a long, dusty path. I'm not carrying it because I like it. The contents are too heavy, and it looks crummy, fraying in spots. I've carried it with me because there was nothing else I was supposed to carry. Still, I guess I have grown attached to it. As you might expect.
Shooting Willoughby carrying Marianne up the path. ... Male strength -- the desire to be cradled again? ... I'd love someone to pick me up and carry me off. Frightening. Lindsay assures me I'd start to fidget after a while. She's such a comfort.
Out of the rolling ocean the crowd came a drop gently to me, Whispering I love you, before long I die, I have travel'd a long way merely to look on you to touch you, For I could not die till I once look'd on you, For I fear'd I might afterward lose you. Now we have met, we have look'd, we are safe, Return in peace to the ocean my love, I too am part of that ocean my love, we are not so much separated, Behold the great rondure, the cohesion of all, how perfect! But as for me, for you, the irresistible sea is to separate us, As for an hour carrying us diverse, yet cannot carry us diverse forever; Be not impatient--a little space--know you I salute the air, theocean and the land, Every day at sundown for your dear sake my love.
Don't carry a grudge; while you're carrying a grudge, the other guy's out dancing.

My Dad was such an incredible person, and you have the option of just curling up in a dark corner and letting it all go or you have the option of standing strong, sticking together and carrying on what he lived and died for.

Life insurance pays off triple if you die on a business trip. I prayed for wind shear effect. I prayed for pelicans sucked into the turbines and loose bolts and ice on the wings. On takeoff, as the plane pushed down the runway and the flaps tilted up, with our seats in their full upright position and our tray tables stowed and all personal carry-on baggage in the overhead compartment, as the end of the runway ran up to meet us with our smoking materials extinguished, I prayed for a crash.
Mere factual innocence is no reason not to carryout a death sentence properly reached.
Words, for all they were flimsy and invisible, had great strength. They could be fortified as a castle wall and sharp as a foil. They could bite, slap, shock, wound. But unlike deeds, words couldn't really help you. No promise ever rescued a person; it was the carrying-through of it that brought about salvation.
I had two dreams about him after he died. I dont remember the first one all that well but it was about meetin him in town somewheres and he give me some money and I think I lost it. But the second one it was like we was both back in older times and I was on horseback goin through the mountains of a night. Goin through this pass in the mountains. It was cold and there was snow on the ground and he rode past me and kept on goin. Never said nothin. He just rode on past and he had this blanket wrapped around him and he had his head down and when he rode past I seen he was carryin fire in a horn the way people used to do and I could see the horn from the light inside of it. About the color of the moon. And in the dream I knew that he was goin on ahead and that he was fixin to make a fire somewhere out there in all that dark and all that cold and I knew that whenever I got there he would be there. And then I woke up.
As a man, I've been representative of the values I hold dear. And the values I hold dear are carryovers from the lives of my parents.

UConn's Calhoun announces retirement
by Nickalas Tabbert
Jim Calhoun, the coach who helped Connecticut win three national championships and post 25 consecutive winning seasons, announced his retirement Thursday.
Calhoun, who took over as the Huskies' head coach 26 years ago, said in a news conference it was simply the right time to move to the next phase in his life.
The 17th head coach in the history of the program won national titles in 1999, 2004 and 2011. He won seven Big East tournament titles and 10 regular-season league titles. He made four Final Fours, nine Elite Eights and 13 Sweet 16s in the NCAA tournament.
He is only one of eight Division I coaches in history with more than 800 wins and had a record of 625-243 since arriving on campus in 1986, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.
Kevin Ollie, who played for Calhoun and has been an assistant for the past two years, has been named head coach. He has a one-year contract that runs through April 4, 2013, worth $625,000, according to The Hartford Courant.
"I cannot put into words how grateful I am to coach Jim Calhoun, who retires today as one of the most legendary coaches in the history of college basketball," he said. "Coach Calhoun brought me here to Connecticut as a person right out of high school and has mentored me into the person I have become today."
Calhoun, 70, will become a special assistant to athletics director Warde Manuel, USA Today said.
"Jim has given 26 years of 100 percent effort into making UConn, and UConn basketball, and so many student-athletes into the best they can be," Manuel said in a press release. "I am proud to have worked with him, if only for a brief period of time, and I look forward to his association with us for years to come."

RSRBF

Redused Set Method for RBF kernel expansion.

 Synopsis:

  red_model = rsrbf(model)

  red_model = rsrbf(model,options)

 Description:

  red_model = rsrbf(model) searchs for a kernel expansion

    with nsv vectors which best approximates the input

    expansion given in model [Schol98a]. The Radial Basis

    kernel (RBF) is assumed (see 'help kernel').

  red_model = rsrbf(model,options) allows to specify the

    control paramaters.

 Input:

  model [struct] Kernel expansion:

   .Alpha [nsv x 1] Weight vector.

   .sv.X [dim x nsv] Vectors defining the expansion.

   .options.ker [string] Must be equal to 'rbf'.

   .options.arg [1x1] Kernel argument (see 'help kernel').

  options [struct] Control parameters:

   .nsv [1x1] Desired number of vectors in the reduced

     expansion (default round(length(model.Alpha)/2)).

   .eps [1x1] Desier limit on the norm of difference between

     the original  normal vector and the reduced the normal

     vector in the  feature space. The algorithm is stopped

     when a lower  difference is achived (default 1e-6).

   .preimage [string] Function called to solve the RBF pre-image

     problem (default 'rbfpreimg');

   .verb [1x1] If 1 then progress info is display (default 0).

 Output:

  red_model [struct] Reduced kernel expansion.

 Example:

  trn = load('riply_trn');

  model = smo(trn,struct('ker','rbf','arg',1,'C',10));

  red_model = rsrbf(model,struct('nsv',10));

  figure; ppatterns(trn);

  h1 = pboundary(model,struct('line_style','r'));

  h2 = pboundary(red_model,struct('line_style','b'));

  legend([h1(1) h2(1)],'Original SVM','Reduced SVM');

SC grandmother seeks justice after young man's murder
Posted: May 27, 2020 / 10:49 AM EDT / Updated: May 27, 2020 / 10:49 AM EDT
LONDON (AP) — Former New York subway boss Andy Byford has been named London's new transit commissioner, overseeing Transport for London's vast network of Tubes, trams, trains and buses.
TFL said Wednesday that Byford will start work June 29, during a time of crisis for the network. TFL has received a 1.6 billion pound ($1.96 billion) government bailout amid the coronavirus lockdown, which has seen revenue from fares plummet by 95%. It says that the need for continued social distancing means it will be able to carry only a fraction of its previous passenger load.
Byford said transit systems faced a "huge challenge" as they try "to reimagine how their services and projects contribute to the safe and sustainable re-start of the social and economic lives of the cities they serve."
U.K.-born Byford resigned as president of the New York City Transit Authority in February after two years of trying to improve the Big Apple's often frustrating subway and bus systems.
He previously headed the Toronto Transit Commission and held senior transit jobs in Sydney and London.

New stimulus bill allows penalty-free 401(k) withdrawals. Should you do it?


I want to hibernate. I don't know why the whole world doesn't just agree to shut the heck down in the wintertime. But I guess this hot chocolate ain't gonna drink itself, amirite?
I do love Christmas. Our elf, Kevin, is back and he is one lazy momo fofo. I've made enough Oreo balls to choke a moose (that's a thing, right?) and we've got a tree up and already surrounded by presents. The holidays are in full swing despite the deplorable weather conditions (when the temperature drops below 60 degrees).
I know most of us can't help but like the Christmas Jesus best, with or without the golden fleece diapers. I gotta say: there's not one thing about the Christmas story I don't love: the starry night, the angels, the shepherds; the anticipation, the joy; and the miracle of baby Jesus Himself.
But I sometimes get a vision–a flash-forward–of a beaten, bloody, innocent man hanging on a cross, surrounded by people who mocked him, who were happy to see him suffer, who wanted him to die.
But really. God's own Son–is there anything decent on this planet that doesn't get wrecked?
Wars, terrorists, orphans, refugees, mass shootings, home invasions, adultery, divorce, disease, starvation, death death death plus a little destruction–it's enough to make me want to shrivel up and die.
And the world (church people included) will tell you that the answer to all this pain (or even potential pain) is hardness. Shut and lock your doors. Keep out anything or anyone that could possibly hurt you in any way, shape, or form. Rules, legislation; carefully constructed community bubbles and a whole lot of cynicism.
And there's nothing wrong with good common sense. But the more I think about the Christmas Jesus, the more I think about love and hope–and the more I think about the Easter Jesus, the more I think about sacrifice and forgiveness, and more love, and more hope.
There is no grown person who hasn't been hurt. People can be cruel. Sin can be crushing. The bad can far outweigh the good in many situations. There is nothing perfect that can't be ruined–but to be able to live and believe in love in spite of everything the world can (and will) throw at you?
That is why I choose Christ.
Because Jesus remained pure. He healed the sick and defended the weak. He gave when He had nothing. He loved people who wanted to kill him. He forgave the unforgivable. He made it to where sin could not keep us down. He saw the very face of Satan and He knew how He would be betrayed–yet He stayed strong and He still loved.
And the world needs that, now more than ever.
Don't let the rush of the season make you crazy. Don't let hard things make you hard. Don't let hateful people make you hate. Don't let darkness make you afraid. And don't let your doubts keep you from believing.

Leucoagaricus viriditinctus (Berk. & Broome) J.F. Liang, Zhu L. Yang & J. Xu, comb. nov. fig. 3
Liang, J.F.; Yang, Z.L.; Xu, J.P.; Ge, Z.W. 2010. Two new unusual Leucoagaricus species (Agaricaceae) from tropical China with blue-green staining reactions. Mycologia. 102(5):1141-1152
Page number: 1146
Remarks (internal): Leucoagaricus viriditinctus is characterized by white context, broadly clavate to pyriform cheilocystidia, and persistent dark blue changes of basidiomata when bruised or dried.
Leucoagaricus viriditinctus originally was described as Agaricus viriditinctus by Berkeley and Broome (1871) and then transferred to the genus Lepiota by Saccardo (1887). Pegler (1986) studied the type specimens of L. viriditincta and L. pyrocephala (Berk. & Broome) Sacc. and combined them as L. viriditincta. Most morphological features were similar between the type specimens of L. pyrocephala and L. viriditincta. However cheilocystidia were broadly clavate to pyriform in the type specimen of L. pyrocephala but could not be found in L. viriditincta. Manimohan et al. (1988) and Kumar and Manimohan (2009a) reported L. viriditincta from southern India yet with different sizes of basidiospores (5.0-7.0 x 3.5-4.0 µm vs. 7.0-10.0 x 4.0-5.0 µm). Based on morphological traits and the molecular phylogenetic analyses (figs. 3, 5), we transfer L. viriditincta to genus Leucoagaricus.

Q: Number of natural number solutions I have reduced one of my problems to a seemingly simple number theoretic problem. I read a bit on diophantine equations in order to find a helpful technique, but my impression was that they always consider settings in the integers and usually polynomials of a variable, while in my case products of variables appear.
I need to know how many solutions in the natural numbers exist for
\begin{equation}
2(r*s-u*v)=d
\end{equation}
with a fixed $d$, $0\leq r,s,u,v \leq d-1$ and $r,s,u,v,d \in \mathbb{N}$.
The goal would be to find an function $f(d)$ that gives me the number of solutions for as many values of $d$ as possible. I suspect it will not be possible to find one function for all values, but any non finite subset might be interesting, the larger the better.
Does anyone know how to approach the question?

A: Suppose $d=2p$, with $p$ an odd prime.
Firstly, I find the number of solutions when the value is a multiple of $d$.  Then, I assume these solutions are distributed normally, and use the continuous approximation to estimate the number of solutions when this sum is between $d/2$ and $3d/2$.
If $2rs$ is a multiple of $p$, then either $r=p$ or $s=p$; and $u=p$ or $u=0$ or $v=p$ or $v=0$.  There are $d-1$ solutions with $r=u=p$ (as $s=v+1$); $d-1$ with $s=u=p$; $d-1$ with $r=v=p$; $d-1$ with $s=v=p$; but $2$ with $r=s=p$ and $2$ with $u=v=p$, so $4d-8$ altogether.  If $r=p,u=0$ there are $d$ solutions $(s=1,v=$anything$)$, and $4d-2$ solutions of this type.  So $$S_1=8d-10$$ solutions when the two terms are multiples of $p$.
Now for $2rs$ not a multiple of $p$, I find solutions where $rs=uv\pmod p$.  If $u\neq0\pmod p$, then for any $r$ and $s$ there are two possible values of $v$; which gives $N=16p^2(p-1)=2d^2(d-2)$ solutions when $2rs$ and $2uv$ match $\mod p$ but are not multiples of $p$.
Since $r,s,u,v$ are not multiples of $p$, we have:$$\mu=\mathbb E(2rs-2uv)=0\\ \sigma^2=\mathbb{E}(2rs-2uv)^2=8((4d-1)d/12)^2$$
so I expect roughly $$S_2=Nd/\sigma=3\sqrt{2}(2d^2(d-2))/(4d-1)$$ solutions when $2rs$ is not a multiple of $p$.
We also need $rs$ to share no factor with $uv$.  The chance they share a prime factor $q$ is $(2q-1)^2/q^4$, so the chance they don't is $\frac{q^4-4q^2+4q-1}{q^4}$.  So $S_2$ must be reduced by the factor
$$F = \prod_{q\text{ prime}}\frac{q^4-4q^2+4q-1}{q^4}$$
Altogether $S_1+FS_2$ solutions, if $d=2p$

Taking a lot time to make decisions was a bad quality for people to have, but now, is a good quality for people to have.
Have you been missing some great opportunities, as a result of your delayed decisions? Have you ever had all the information at hand being ready to make a choice but still be hesitant? Despite some voice goes like "It really depends on the context" or "It is the quality of the decision that matters rather than the time", I still firmly believe that time and tide wait for no man, especially in the current age of opportunity.
In extreme cases, the nature of the environment requires decisions to be made under time pressure. Excessive time can only aggravate the situation. Take my real experience as an example. I was on the street one day. One of the trash bins on the sidewalk was smoking while people were walking by with a glance at it. I was hesitating whether it is necessary to call the firefighting. Suddenly, it lit up and exploded with a loud sound. Everyone on the street was dispersing with scream. What's worse, the flying lid caused severe injury on an old lady. It enlightened me that "wait and see" is not a good strategy or quality if you are a firefighter, security guard and surgeon in particular. The worst situation could be avoided only if we make the decision and act right away.
On top of that, an opportunity seizer should be a quick decision maker. Some once-in-life opportunities, saying purchasing the last land in a vigorous developing suburb or applying for a promising and decent job, will slip away if you are not a fast shooter. A good example is the stock market in where time is everything. The traders better make decisions rapidly within a few seconds or minutes of seeing a signal whilst some swing traders usually spend a whole day to analyze the statistics and trends and the rock bottom has passed, let alone long term investors. One of my friends, who is the trader in forex, also tell me either overanalyzing or overthinking will grape your money. That is why it is not hard to find the earning traders are sensitive and decisive ones.
Indeed, it requires ample time to consider through the issues that would have significant life implications, which university you will attend or who you are going to marry, for example. But it doesn't mean that taking much time to decide deserves applause. For most circumstances, delayed decision will only bring people no benefits or loss. Instead of dwelling on why I missed the chance, make a prompt decision and never slip it away until you have followed through.
Bottom line, not to mention whether it is bad, it is definitely not a good quality to taking long time to decide in the modern society as some life-or-death and one-in-a-thousand decisions must be made in a few seconds.

Chapter LXI.
The Taupo Campaign—continued.
Te Kooti's Attack on Ohinemutu: Succeeds in Again Reaching the Uriwera Country.
Colonel McDonnell, thinking it possible that his wily foe might double back towards Tapapa, after leading the force on false scent, sent Kepa the following morning with orders to follow the trail of the previous day, and taking 100 men, the colonel himself made a long detour through the ranges to ascertain whether the enemy had returned. After a long and tedious march, the force camped in the forest. On the following morning the march was resumed, and they reached Tapapa in the afternoon without discovering any traces of Te Kooti. On his return, Colonel McDonnell found that 200 of the Arawas, under Lieutenant Mair, had arrived from Rotorua; this completely disarranged his plans, for he depended on these men guarding the tracks leading to the Kaingaroa plains, the only feasible line of retreat left open to the Hauhaus. Under these circumstances, Lieutenant Mair was ordered back with all speed; he left on the 3rd of February, and the correctness of McDonnell's views were borne out by the skirmish on the 12th at Rotorua. Meanwhile Kepa was following the page 329enemy in the direction of Tauranga, and the first night he camped, a long discussion took place as to the propriety of giving up this stern chase after a flying enemy. One of the principal chiefs tried hard to persuade the Wanganuis to return, but old Kawana Paipai, ever on the right side, sprang to his feet, and combated his arguments by declaring that men who feared a little hardship were cowards, and, pointing to Captain Morrison and thirty Europeans who accompanied them, said, "Even though you go back, these men will not." The Kawana was so personal in his remarks, that no one cared to contradict him, and the column proceeded on its dreary bush march. About midday, tracks were seen on the path that led in the direction of Tauranga, and soon after, articles of clothing, old muskets and other things, which showed Kepa that he was on the right track, and that the enemy were in a great hurry, travelling light. On the afternoon of the third day, our men reached a small kainga, on the edge of the bush; the fires were still alight in the whares, but although scouts were sent out, they failed to discover the enemy's presence. The march was at once resumed, now on a broad beaten track which was followed some distance, until traversed by a deep ravine, on the opposite side of which was open country, and a new earthwork could be seen about a mile distant, occupied by a large body of men, whether Europeans or natives, friendly or Hauhaus, it was impossible to say. While Captain Morrison and the chiefs were discussing the necessity of discovering who they were, the sound of musketry was heard and bullets flew in all directions. This lasted for half an hour, and ceased as suddenly as it began, to the relief of the Wanganuis, who could not possibly understand it, as no enemy could be seen engaging the men holding the redoubt, and it was equally evident it was not meant for them. To ascertain who the strangers were was a service of considerable danger, for, whether friendly or otherwise, they would be sure to fire on any scouts seen, but the thing had to be page 330done, and Captain. Morrison and forty men were sent out to do it. They crawled up to the redoubt in true Maori style, unseen by the supposed enemy, and, to their astonishment, found them to be a mixed force of Europeans and Maories under Colonel Fraser, whom they could distinctly see inside the redoubt. How he got there puzzled everyone, as he was supposed to be at Rotorua, guarding the passes to the Uriwera country; the only difficulty left was to make themselves known without being fired upon. Captain Morrison again undertook the duty, feeling assured he would not be taken for a Hauhau; but his bushranging costume had not entered into his consideration, and the sentry would have fired on him but for the intervention of Captain Withers. Colonel Fraser, it appeared, had marched from Rotorua to Tauranga viâ Maketu, and from thence to the position he then occupied. On the previous day he had fallen into an ambuscade of the enemy, and lost three men, one a European of the armed constabulary and two of his Arawa allies, the enemy retiring without loss. The ambush was laid at Paengaroa by forty of Te Kooti's men, who had waited until Colonel Fraser's leading files were within twenty yards before firing; and it is difficult to understand how so few men were hit. As usual, they retired before our men had recovered from the confusion which invariably attends an ambush. The fact that some of Te Kooti's scouts bad been seen in the neighbourhood explained the cause of the firing, for the Arawa dreaded Te Kooti, and wished to keep him at a distance.
Later in the day they captured an old man, and while the capturer was questioning him about Te Kooti, he was at the same time loading his rifle, with which (after obtaining all the information he required) he deliberately blew out his brains. No astonishment was expressed by the natives present, and the body was thrown into the bush; shortly after, another of the Arawas (who was probably suffering from ennui) dragged the body out, threw it into a hole, and made a fire on the top of it, the page 331remainder of the tribe being admiring spectators of the deed, this useless piece of barbarity being quite characteristic of the tribe. Kepa proposed immediate pursuit, but Colonel Fraser ordered him to wait until the following morning, when he would go with him. Had Kepa's advice been taken, they might have caught Te Kooti before he reached the Uriwera country, for which he was now making. Colonel Fraser and Kepa marched in pursuit next day, leaving Captain Morrison his detachment and the Arawas, with orders to hold the redoubt for that day, and then to follow up; but Colonel Fraser had hardly gone an hour, when the Arawas discovered they were not safe in so dangerous a place, and away they went, without the smallest compunction for the fate they believed awaited Captain Morrison and his thirty men. But their fears luckily were premature, as Te Kooti by this time was far on his way to Rotorua, en route for the Uriwera country.
On the morning of the 7th of May, a European named Louis Baker, a deserter from H.M.S. Rosario, who had joined Te Kooti, came into Ohinemutu and informed the natives that he had just escaped from Te Kooti, who was in the immediate neighbourhood, and who intended to attack Ohinemutu. This intelligence was immediately forwarded to Captain G. Mair, who happened to be close at hand with 200 men, and who, being uncertain when or where the attack would take place, made the best disposition of his force possible, by dividing his men so as to guard a long line of country, at the same time leaving each party in such a position that they could, at short notice, support each other. About noon Te Kooti showed himself, and very nearly surprised, and did fire upon, a party of Ngatiwhakaaue women, who were collecting food on the edge of the bush, but they fortunately escaped. Having failed in this cowardly attack, he then commenced to burn and destroy the houses and cultivations of the inhabitants, at the same time offering them terms of peace; and, strange to say, many of the Arawa chiefs were inclined to accept page 332them, notably Petera te Pukuatua, who tried to stop Captain Mair from attacking them, and there is little doubt that, had that officer not been present, Te Kooti would not only have escaped scot free, but would probably have deluded the Arawas into a belief of his sincerity, and performed the Mohaka massacre over again on a much larger scale. But as Captain Mair did not believe in his sincerity, but rather that it was a mere pretext to gain time for his retreat, brought up his young men at the double, and on reaching the top of the hill he saw that his suspicions were verified, as the Hauhaus were about two miles distant, retreating in the direction of Kaiteriria. A sharp run of half an hour brought the two parties in collision: the Hauhaus, nothing daunted, turned about to fight, and after some smart skirmishing which had given his women and baggage time to get a good start, they retired fighting. The fight was very unequal; the hard running had knocked up most of Mair's men, only thirty being present, and the enemy tried to take advantage of their superiority in numbers by making a second stand on the brow of a hill. Led by Peka and Kereopa, they charged most determinedly, clubbing their rifles as they came on; but Mair's men held their ground, and poured in such a steady fire that the enemy were driven back, leaving five of their number dead, after which the Hauhaus contented themselves with occasional firing, keeping up the same rapid retreat. When near Kaiteriria, the Tuhourangi and Ngatirangitihi tribes came up from the position they had occupied, but, instead of cutting off the enemy's retreat as they were expected to have done, they contented themselves with joining in the pursuit. The line of retreat was marked by an occasional dead Hauhau, and towards evening Peka, the half-caste, the greatest of ruffians and Te Kooti's best fighting man, was shot. Throughout the retreat he had been the leader of the rear-guard, and had fought manfully. He was the last man killed, for soon after the enemy reached the Tumunui bush, where they were safe, for it was now too dark to page 333follow on. It was afterwards discovered that the enemy continued their retreat all through the night, only stopping once to cook potatoes. Their loss was twelve killed, whereas our loss was slight—one killed and three wounded. On the following morning, Captain Mair tried hard to get the Arawas to follow up, hut without success, for, as usual, they thought they had done enough. Some days after, Captain Mair received information that Te Rangi Tahau (who, with thirty men, had left Te Kooti after Tapapa) was following up his leader; he went out with the intention of stopping him, and came across one of the enemy, who had been severely wounded on the 7th. Captain Mair would have saved him had not one of the Arawas recognised him as Timoti Te Kaka, Te Kooti's executioner at Mohaka, the man who killed women and children in the wool-shed; for such a wretch there was neither pity nor quarter, and a bullet put an end to his misery. Te Rangi Tahau was not intercepted, for he had changed his plans, and, separating himself from Te Kooti, took refuge with Te Hira, at Ohinemuri. After this period Te Kooti's star began to wane, and had it not been for the Uriweras, he would soon have been without men to do further mischief. The result of this campaign was creditable alike to the Government who planned it, and to the officer who carried it out, and may be briefly summed up in a few sentences. At the commencement of the campaign Te Kooti had been joined by the Taupo and Tuhua tribes; and Ngatimaniapoto, if not Waikato, awaited the issue, with every intention of joining. Topia Turoa and the fighting tribes of the Upper Wanganuis were neutral, but doubtful. Within five months, Te Kooti had been beaten in five fights, in which he had lost sixtynine men. Topia Turoa had thrown off his neutrality, and entered heart and soul against him. The Taupo and Tuhua tribes had been detached from their alliance with the archrebel, and the King party had been brought to approve of the campaign to such an extent that they not only allowed but approved of Kepa and Topia's march through their page 334boundaries. Te Kooti had certainly succeeded in reaching the Uriwera country, but accompanied only by a remnant of his Chatham Islanders, and the Uriweras, after the lesson they had received, would he hardly likely to be very friendly with him in the future. Our losses throughout the campaign were fifteen Maories and twelve Europeans killed, and twenty-one wounded (chiefly natives).

Community, Social Impact, Team Spotlight
Catching up With Valerie Tulier-Laiwa, This Year's Recipient of the Rosario Anaya Community Award
Posted by Donovan Gomez on December 1, 2021 December 1, 2021
Last month, our very own Valerie Tulier-Laiwa earned the Rosario Anaya Community Award for her tireless work with the Latino Task Force to help many families during the COVID-19 pandemic. We caught up with Valerie to see what the award has meant to her and how we can all work together in times of need.
Question: How long have you worked at the SFPUC and what is your job title?
Answer: I have been working for the SFPUC for 6 and a half years and currently I am the Social Impact Partnership Acting Manager in External Affairs.
Question: During your career with the SFPUC, what are some memorable projects and milestones?
Answer: My work with WEPS (Workforce and Economic Program Services) has been a perfect fit for my past community-based work. Co-developing with my WEPS colleagues on the Neurodiversity Pilot Program, the Women in Construction Career Exposure, the Tuolumne Community Collaborative Construction Pre-Apprenticeship Training Program are just a few programs that I am very proud of. A memorable moment was when the Tuolumne All-Women Cohort was recognized by the SFPUC Commission. I am now honored to work with the Social Impact Partnership team.
Question: What does it mean to you to receive the Rosario Anaya Award and be recognized by your colleagues?
Answer: To receive the Rosario Anaya Award by serving the Latino Task Force is one of my biggest honors. She was a trailblazer, being the first Latina to serve on the San Francisco Unified School District Board. She was professional, caring, generous, and a fierce advocate.
Valerie Tulier-Laiwa, This Year's Recipient of the Rosario Anaya Community Award.
Question: How is the Latinx community stronger together?
Answer: This pandemic has been particularly devasting to BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, (and) People of Color) communities, however, it has also had many stories of collaboration, resilience, youth leadership, career opportunities, and policy changes. The Latin community and non-profits already had existing relationships and a history of mutual respect and collaboration, but the pandemic brought us fully together and unified us to work toward one common cause – COVID response in multiple areas and for the most vulnerable, including the Maya community. The Latino Task Force is made up of over 30+ community-based organizations, City departments, government representatives, and 13 active committees. Together, we moved mountains and we are an example of a Latino city-wide community model on how to respond to a crisis. I would be remiss if I did not acknowledge other BIPOC communities and neighborhoods doing incredible work including the Excelsior, Bayview, Tenderloin, Fillmore, and SOMA serving Black, Indigenous, Pacific Islander, Filipino, Asian, and other Communities of Color.
Question: You served as a Disaster Service Worker (DSW) for a majority of the COVID-19 pandemic. What stood out most to you working as a DSW during the COVID-19 pandemic?
Answer: First, I would like to recognize the partnership between two City departments, SFPUC and the Human Rights Commission and their leadership, Masood Ordikhani and Dr. Sherly Davis, for allowing me to be assigned to support the Latino Task Force-COVID Response. My work and community years of experience put me at the right time and in the right position to support the Latin community during this pandemic. I also need to acknowledge that the Latin community, particularly the Mission District leadership, gave me permission to coordinate the work. It was definitely hard work, but so rewarding working with the sheroes and heroes of the community and connecting the City's response and resources to those who need it most.
Question: Is there anything else that you would like to add?
Answer: As a Latina, I believe that it is everyone's personal responsibility to commit to being involved in working toward our community's betterment. It is not enough to have yours and not care about others. Latinos have certain positions, not because they achieve it on their own, but rather others have fought and sacrificed to gain our places of success whether you know your history or not.

What is BYU quarterback Riley Nelson doing this week? Along with getting more reps in practice in hopes of being physically able to play against Utah State on Friday, the senior is talking up the Aggies at every opportunity. Here are more of Nelson's thoughts on his former team. There's a little bit of Jabari Parker news today, with his father telling ESPN.com that the prep basketball phenom who has an offer from BYU will make official visits to Duke and Michigan State. Parker visited BYU at the end of August, but paid his own way, so he technically could visit BYU again as one of his five allotted official visits. There's also some NFL news regarding former Cougars. Quarterback John Beck has been released by the Houston Texans, according to this report. Meanwhile, former BYU linebacker Bryan Kehl, who is becoming quite the journeyman, has been signed by the Kansas City Chiefs. My main offering in Wednesday's Tribune takes a look back at last year's BYU-Utah State game, and attempts to make the case that offensive coordinator Brandon Doman's big decision to yank Jake Heaps and insert Riley Nelson into the game not only changed the course of that contest, but greatly altered the future of BYU quarterbacking for several years. There are a few comments from Doman about how the offense's identity has or hasn't changed in the article. Here are a few more: On how the offense fits Taysom Hill's skills: "It is all the same stuff. So all the runs that we have put in, run plays, there are some open option stuff, some quarterback draws and things like that, that we put in for Riley. Taysom can do them. He is just bigger, and he's very successful at it. Then the movement stuff the bootlegs and naked rollouts that we utilize Riley's strengths in doing, Taysom can do them as well." On whether the offense still includes the BYU basics: "Yeah. Like I said, the skeleton of the passing offense is the same skeleton. Now, how we get to it, we can get to it from different ways: be it straight dropback, or play action, or movement. Maybe the strengths of some guys is down-the-field throws, and maybe for other guys, like Riley, their strengths aren't lining up and throwing the ball down the field, trying to stretch the defense. Max [Hall] was really good at that. And we don't know yet how good Taysom will be at stretching the defense. It takes a lot of time to get good at the passing game in this offense. So we are kinda baby stepping with Taysom." On how his decision last year to yank Heaps in favor of Riley has impacted BYU quarterbacking for years to come: "The guys that were the very best here had the utmost trust and confidence from their teammates. And then willpower in their character. And character is who you are, so these guys, I want a quarterback that is going to try hard, that is going to be here early, that is going to stay late and do the work. And then if they have got the talent, then we are going to recruit them and sign them here. And if they don't have that, I certainly don't want to miss on a guy. If they can run, great, if they can throw, great. We will utilize the skillset that he has." On whether you have to swallow your ego as an offensive coordinator and just go with what's working and not get too fancy: "You know, I think for me, and I don't know what anyone else cares about, or what they want us to be, I want us to be an offense that is full of grit, and then we execute our assignments well, and then be able to do it fast. And then our identity as we move forward, I want it to be a progression-based, passing offense. It started that way, but we are five weeks into the season, and we have had to make an adjustment. So my ego hurts more when we lose than anything. And we got to do whatever is best for this football team, and in that particular game, the run game is what was working for us. Hopefully we can improve these quarterbacks in the pass game, so if we need to lean on that, we can do it well." On whether they were surprised at way Taysom Hill played: "No. I have been around him long enough to know that he is a football player, and I didn't expect our entire offense to play the way that they did. I was hopeful that they would, but the young man is a great football player. He loves to play, and he's got great poise. So I don't know that I was that surprised."


A house with a white picket fence, cupcakes, Olicity…I mean, who really thought it would be happily ever after?! Of course there would be trouble in the now Star City and the gang would have to get back together. Plus, everyone gets a costume. Thea aka Speedy demands to be called Red Arrow, Oliver is now Green Arrow and even Diggle gets his own mask!
The premiere finds Oliver and Felicity living the life they always wanted, away from the craziness of Star City and bad guys. Only, they're both meant for something more. Oliver becomes someone new to help fight new bad guys including Damien Darhk played by Neal McDonough.
Arrow premieres Wednesday, Oct. 7 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on The CW.
The CW announced their fall 2015-16 schedule early Thursday morning and released a few trailers their upcoming new series, to get us all a little excited for what's to come later on this year. Personally, I can't wait for the Arrow-Flash spinoff DC's Legends of Tomorrow and Julie Plec's Containment.
Check out the trailers below and let us know what you think!
CRAZY EX-GIRLFRIEND – Mondays at 8:00 p.m.
The CW is the last broadcast network to release their fall 2015-16 schedule, and if you've been watching this past season, you'll notice that not much has really changed. Seriously, there's one new show this fall.
New comedy Crazy Ex-Girlfriend gets pairs up with returning series Jane the Virgin during the 8 p.m. time slot while The Flash and iZombie stay put on Tuesdays. Wednesdays aren't changing either, however, fang-favorite The Originals is moving to Thursdays, immediately following The Vampire Diaries at 9 p.m. Finally! The two vampire shows are airing on the same night!
CW president Mark Pedowitz announced today during the upfront presentation that the third season of Reign will move over to Fridays, aka where shows go to die. But he says he's hoping that doesn't happen because the show skews a bit older and won't be up against anything Shonda related. But didn't you just move The Originals to that very same time slot you were afraid of?! I'm confused.
Anyways, let's get to some more of the new shows we're totally psyched about like DC's Legends of Tomorrow and Julie Plec's new drama series Containment. Both shows are being held for midseason along with returning shows The 100, Whose Line is it Anyway? and Beauty and the Beast.
The CW has renewed iZombie for a second season.
The comic book-inspired series, stars Rose McIver as the overly-achieving medical student turned zombie who eats brains and sees flashes of memories from the dead, garnered 2.3 million viewers when it premiered back in March.
Rob Thomas' freshman series joins a long list of shows that have already been picked up by the CW for the 2015-16 season.
The season finale of iZombie airs Tuesday, June 9 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on The CW.
It's been almost a month since Caroline and Stefan have turned off their humanity and I don't know about you, but I can't wait to find out what they've been up to. What sort of destruction have they been causing? I can only imagine. Here's hoping they've just been sleeping their way all over town while "snacking" a bit.
Alas, that is not the case. They've actually left a slew of bodies in the path, leaving Jo to clean up their mess, pulling in Elena to help with Damon to figure out a way to turn Stefan and Caroline's humanity back on.
After finding out about Jo's pregnancy, Elena starts to reevaluate her own life, especially the life of being a vampire.
Will Damon be able to flip the switch in time before something horrible happens?
KILLER KARAOKE — With their humanity turned off, Stefan (Paul Wesley) and Caroline (Candice Accola) begin wreaking havoc at Whitmore, leaving Damon (Ian Somerhalder) to come up with a risky plan involving Lily (guest star Annie Wersching). After rushing to help Jo (guest star Jodi Lyn O'Keefe) treat victims of Stefan and Caroline's latest killing spree, Elena (Nina Dobrev) discovers Jo is pregnant, prompting her to reevaluate her own life as a vampire. Meanwhile, when Sarah (guest star Tristan Mays) boldly turns the tables on an unsuspecting Enzo (Michael Malarkey), he is forced to open up about his tragic past. Lastly, at Scull Bar, a twisted round of karaoke leaves Tyler (Michael Trevino) and Matt (Zach Roerig) in a dangerous situation.
After testing Freya in order to believe she is who she says she is, Klaus is forced to put aside his feelings about her in order to save his other sister Rebekah.
Rebekah realizes that the body she's been inhabiting is trying to regain control and doing things she doesn't remember doing. Like killing innocent children.
Basically, everyone will do whatever they can to save her life. No matter what.
The Originals airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET on The CW.
CONTROLLING THE DEMON — When Eva Sinclair's (guest star Maisie Richardson-Sellers) reemergence leaves Rebekah trapped and helpless, Klaus (Joseph Morgan) is forced to put aside his mistrust for Freya (guest star Riley Voelkel) in order to save Rebekah's life. Meanwhile, Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin) and Elijah (Daniel Gillies) learn more about Eva's violent past from Josephine (guest star Meg Foster), who then makes a startling revelation about Hayley's future. With time running out to save Rebekah, Marcel (Charles Michael Davis) turns to a reluctant Vincent (Yusuf Gatewood) for his help to take down Eva, but his plan takes an unexpected turn, as Eva will not go down without a fight. Danielle Campbell also stars. Dermott Downs directed the episode written by Declan de Barra & Diane Ademu-John (#217). Original airdate 4/6/2015.
You are cordially invited to attend the wedding of John Diggle and Lyla Michaels. Sadly it won't last very long, as Deadshot (Michael Rowe) interrupts the happy couple by announcing that the Suicide Squad has been given a new mission.
Not only is the "gang" all back together, but Cupid (Amy Gumenick) has somehow been given a spot in the crew. Thanks for that, Amanda Waller!
Meanwhile, Ray Palmer learns about Oliver's nightly activities as the Arrow, so he puts on the Atom suit and they have a bit of a standoff. Felicity should have known that he'd find out and should have warned Oliver. Tsk Tsk.
DIGGLE MARRIES LYLA; THE SUICIDE SQUAD RIDES AGAIN — It's celebration time as Diggle (David Ramsey) and Lyla (guest star Audrey Marie Anderson) get married. However, Deadshot (guest star Michael Rowe) interrupts their honeymoon and tells them the Suicide Squad has been given a new mission – rescue United States Senator Joseph Cray (guest star Steven Culp) from a hostage situation in the Republic of Kasnia. Amanda Waller (guest star Cynthia Addai-Robinson) breaks down the mission and introduces them to the newest member of the Suicide Squad, Cupid (guest star Amy Gumenick). Meanwhile, Oliver (Stephen Amell) learns about Ray's new Atom costume and the two have a heated stand-off. Felicity (Emily Bett Rickards) and Ray hit a rough patch. Jesse Warn directed the episode written by Keto Shimizu (#317). Original airdate 3/25/2015.
Caroline has lost her f*cking mind!! I thought she would be this fun vampire without her humanity but clearly I was so, so wrong. She made Liam perform open heart surgery on Sarah, or at least attempt to. She basically could give zero f*cks about what's going on with her friends and didn't even smile, let alone react when she realized Bonnie was back.
Speaking of Bonnie, that poor thing. She can barely handle living back in the real world with her friends again and people for that matter. She burned a guy just saying she's hot and wanting to dance with her. The struggle is real, girl.
Let's not forget the fact that Enzo is starting to have feelings for Sarah, which is totally weird. And by the end of it all, the only thing Caroline wants is for Stefan to turn off his humanity and come play with her. That's it. No big deal. Except for the fact that he doesn't have a system in place like Caroline does, to keep him in check. He turns into a freaking ripper! We all know how this could end.
Last we hear is Stefan telling Elena to bring him back. Sure. Easier said than done my friend. Remember the last time he did that?!

From the creator of Veronica Mars, comes the newest CW series about a young woman named Liv, who just happens to be undead.
iZombie, stars Rose McIver at Olivia "Liv" Moore, who after a crazy party one night is now among the dead and tries to find her place in "life" now that all she wants to do is eat brains. Liv finds herself stuck in the same life only pretending to be, shall we say, different. Her new look is played off by her newfound love of "goth" and soon she ends up with a job in the medical examiners office as a way to supplement her craving for brains. Her boss, Dr. Ravi Chakrabarti (Rahul Kohli), is absolutely intrigued by what's happened to Liv and is excited by the scientific possibilities. He's also promised to help her in her quest to find Blaine, the zombie responsible for her current undead status.
As she begins to feed on the minds of those Jane and John Doe's, she discovers that she can retain a portion of that person's memories, thereby helping out Detective Clive Babineaux (Malcolm Goodwin) in solving crimes. The only way she can account for knowing all these factual details is to pretend that she's a psychic.
Rose McIver is absolutely adorable and leaves you wanting more. As for the gore, well, they definitely could use a little more but it's hard to tell just from the pilot. We'll see how the series plays out. The CW is of course not without its eye candy, so I'll definitely be tuning in for David Anders and Robert Buckley.
iZombie premieres Tuesday, March 17 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on The CW.
