This week has been super awesome and super funny. Elder Zenteno is just a really awesome guy. We honestly had some really funny experiences this last week.
One thing that Elder Zenteno said this last week that I found very interesting was that it was weird for him how many people are so rude to us. He said that in all of his other areas people would invite him into their house and listen to their message or at least schedule a time for them to return. He said that he feels like nobody here wants to listen to us and that it's so weird how everyone is so Catholic here. For me all of this has been normal my whole mission... I guess I just kind of thought that this is how missionary life was everywhere... but he said that people are just really closed off here and are always too busy to hear us... he mentioned that it's probably because it's a city. All of this has been super normal for me... I guess that's a blessing that I have recieved from being in this state of Jalisco my whole mission.
One super sad thing this last week happened. Elder Solórzano and I shared messages and served a family named Familia Jaramio. They always seemed happy to listen to us but just seemed like to be the typical less active family, didn't want to go to church. Well the first day this last week I brought Elder Zenteno to meet them. We entered and everything was normal but then Sister Jaramio said "I have some bad news... well good news for me but maybe bad news for you." She then went and told us that she returned to the Catholic Church... she went and confessed her sins to the Father there and couldn't stop crying from so much happiness that she recieved. She said that she wished she never would've left the Catholic Church and that it is the path that she has chosen and that she never ever will go back to the LDS Church.... Ouch. The only thing I could think of was talk about the Book of Mormon. I asked her if she ever really asked God if it was true and if she had ever recieved an answer that it is true. She pretty much said that it's a good book but that she never had prayed to God about it. We read in Moroni 10:3-5 and invited her to read part of the Book of Mormon and to ask God if it was true before she closed the door on our church. Pretty much she told me that she wouldn't pray about the Book of Mormon and was happy about the decision she made to go back to the Catholic Church. We shared our testimonies and left with a prayer. I honestly wanted to cry... it's just so sad. We shared messages with them like 3 times every week and I have cleaned their house like 3-4 times for service. I think there are two reasons that she fell away from the church; 1. She never had a testimony of the Church. 2. The members never visited her in her home therefore never really had a good relationship with anyone there. It is super sad... but just makes me want to work super hard helping the people feel welcome in the church especially in Home Teaching.
The best experience ever in this last week is about to be shared, brace yourself. I definitely went through the Guadalajara Temple this last Saturday and did a session :). So in this mission it is a rule that the missionaries can't go to the temple for two reasons... 1. It's a rule of the mission. and 2. The temple is out of our mission's boundries. What happened was a missionary named Elder Payne came into our zone for his last week of his mission. The cool thing is that one of his converts was going to go through the temple on Saturday for her first time to recieve her endownments :) Well this convert just happened to be in my last area in Buenos Aires and I taught her a few times and always shared messages with her family :) Well the president told Elder Payne that he could go to the temple for his convert but that he should go on divisions with Elder Summers because he was also in that last area. :) This has definitely been one of the things I have always wanted to do and something that I thought that I would never have the chance to do... but it was amazing :) The convert (Hermana Guadalupe) looked like the happiest person I have ever seen in my life.... ever :) It was one of the best experiences I have had in my mission seeing a convert go through the temple. :) It was pretty cool going through the temple in Spanish as well and the new part was pretty cool too (just have to say... Saints and Soldiers). Awesome experience and awesome week!
I love you all and we will be talking to you all next week!
Menudo... Yes I ate it again... I would rather eat my own throw-up.
Eating super good tacos. I love real Mexican food!
So we received changes this last week for all of our zone... this means that we have to plan for how each missionary is going to meet up with his/her new companion without ever being alone. Anyways it was pretty stressful and to our surprise, Elder Solórzano has changes too. He was sent about 8 and a half hours away from where our area is. I now have a new companion named Elder Zenteno. He is a really good guy and seems to work hard... I have heard a lot of great things about him and am excited to work with him. I really did like Elder Solórzano... we got along well and worked hard, yeah there were things that bugged me about him but we got along and worked hard... he is now gone after 6 weeks of being together. But the worst part is that I don't know my area... well I do... well kind of, but honestly I just followed him around everywhere and didn't pay too much atención on how to get to people's houses 'n' such. Well it turns out I am now no longer going to be able to trust in Elder Solórzano in guiding us to every lesson... and it's probable that Elder Zenteno and I are going to suffer a little bit this week finding our way around :) I'm actually excited for these changes.
Funny thing about Elder Zenteno is that he looks like he's American but he's not. He is from Monterrey, México and I guess there are a lot of white people there. He tells people where is from and nobody believes him (sus ojos de color no le ayudan mucho) [his eye color doesn't help very much]... it's actually quite hilarious.
P.S. Xander that is so sick that you received your mission call. New Zealand sounds like its going to be so awesome! I am sure you will do great and help a whole bunch of people in ways you can't even imagine. Keep working hard and don't do drugs.
I realized that I didn't have a picture of Elder Zenteno so I said "I need a picture" he then turned and did that face and continued writing on the computer. What a White Mexican.
Well this week was pretty awesome I have to admit. We met with José Luís every night this last week to make sure he felt comfortable for his baptism.... and he's awesome so he was. Friday night we went to see him and he told us that he felt ready... my companion asked him what he would do if he had some trials the next day before his baptism and he told us simply, "¿Pues, superarlas no?" Which translates to something like "Well, overcome them no?". He's awesome! Anyways he definitely had a trial pretty big that next day. It was a pretty beautiful Saturday but then about 10 minutes before his baptism it started down pouring super hard... the hardest tempest that has happened in this rainy season here in Guadalajara. It was even hailing the size of marbles for a little while. We called him and he said, "well I am about halfway there but I am stuck here in the storm... I'm going to have to return home to change my shirt but I will be there soon." Well about an hour later he made it to the chapel with a huge smile on his face! Super ready to be baptized :) We then baptized him and it started to rain super hard again so nobody wanted to leave the chapel. At about 8:30 Elder Solorzano and I said a prayer and the hectic storm cleared up enough for everyone to get home in safety. Love faith and love prayer. This week was awesome and I have never seen José Luís more happy than he is right now :) My whole mission is worth it even if it was only for José Luís.
So things have been going really well lately. Elder Solórzano and I are still working hard and having some success. One thing that has been hard is that we have been focusing on inviting people to be baptized and setting a bautismal date in the first lesson. Well, we had some success with this... we put 9 new bautismal fechas [dates] this last week. Pretty much we don't leave their house until they say that they are going to prepare for their baptismal date. Although we have been getting people to say yes, we have been lacking in actually helping them to have the desire to be baptized. They say yes because we kind of don't take no for an answer instead of helping them want to be baptized. It's tough though because we have to make these baptismal dates every day and find new investigators every day... and as Líderes de la Zona we send the mission president a text message every night telling him how many dates we make and how many new investigadores we have found... if we didn't, we have to explain to him why and what we are going to do differently. It's kind of a lot of pressure. But out of these 9 dates we put, guess how many atended church? If you guessed 0 then you are correct. It's all good though, we'll keep searching for the chosen people... and inviting people to repent and be baptized.
Speaking of baptism. José Luís had to have a special interview with the mission president to see if he could be baptized... anyways he passed and will be baptized this week! Yeah yeah! In the mission the investigadores have to attend church 5 times but he only has attended church 4 times... we talked to the Assistants to the President and they asked us why we want to baptize him early... we answered, "Well, he finished the Book of Mormon in 3 weeks and has been active at church since we have met him." Let's just say there will not be any problem with him being baptized this week :) It's pretty exciting!
Selfie with our investigador Raymundo! He is hilarious and acts like a little kid. I also gave him this tie that he has on. I love this guy.
We had to brush our teeth at the church because our investigator had an interview early in the morning! We're cool.
This week was a pretty swell week... a little stressful as always but it was good. This week we had Los Consejos. This is a meeting for all of the zone leaders and sister training leaders of the mission. The first night we go to the president's house to have dinner (we had pizza) and listen to a devotional done by the president... a very nice and calming environment. Then in the morning we go to a chapel and have the big meeting. We talk about what we accomplished in the past month and the goals that we have set for the next three months. The assistants to the president direct us in a few activities and the president gives us counsel to help us out in the field. Sounds like a pretty calm time... but honestly it felt like we got beat up and then at the end a pat on the back to make us feel better. It was really good and it was fun seeing what some of the other leaders are doing and accomplishing in their zones and areas... it was also very good to see Elder Neu who is a missionary from my district in the MTC. He is also a zone leader and seems to be doing very well. It was pretty crazy for both of us to see each other and it's even crazier to think that a year ago we were in the MTC together preparing to be out here in the field. Time flies by super fast.
José Luís is doing really well. He has been an investigator for 3 weeks now and about 4 days ago he finished the Book of Mormon. He is an inspiration... he loves to read the Book of Mormon. When we talked to him the last time he told us that he finished the book and told us that he started to read the dictionary at the back of the book. ;) Super funny. He assured us that he is going to read it again and put into practice the things that he is learning. He wants to be baptized but we are waiting for a special interview to help him become prepared for baptism. We are praying that everything turns out okay. He is just awesome and he makes me happy every time we visit him. Such a great guy. He is also 55 just as a side note.
Well, I am continuing to enjoy my time here in Libertad 1. Elder Solórzano is a really great guy and we are just trying super hard to search ways to help our investigators as well as the zone. Oh and in Los Consejos we talked about a problem that the leaders aren't getting to bed by 10:30 so the president cut down the data that we have to send in every night... so we still are trying super hard every night to get to bed by 10:30 but it is a lot better than before.
I love you all and will talk to you next week.
Got to love Mcdonald's on P-Day.... their Coke is soo good!

i know this subject has been discussed at great length in the past ,but as many local people may have noticed this historic public right of way has now been claimed as the private property of the 140 millon bankrupts of a company going by the name of nowtel ,the deeds of this property do not show these stairs as belonging too them or the reisidents of anchor brewhouse,as has been discussed in the past it is unclear as to the ownership of these stairs ,that being the situation, southwark council have decided to capitulate to the bully boy bankrupts and allow them to call this private land ,continuous use over 400 years means we the people of southwark have the right to use these stairs without asking their permission to open up these gates,i challenge them who deny us access to publish the documents which show they own this land . if they cannot, we should demand they take down their gates for which they have no planning permission and allow us the access, which has been ours for oveer 400 years.

What's this about, d cliff?
1: Nowtel is or was a telecom company that, according to the notice, provides or provided wifi services to the tenants of the building.
2: I have no idea if the council 'decided to capitulate to the bully boy bankrupts and allow them to call this private land'. The most obvious conclusion, without even demanding to see the present landowners' property deeds, is surely that the area of the 19th-century brewery is private land. This need not prevent a public right of way existing - by its very nature a right of way is a right to cross private land.
3: The 19th-century passageway leading to Horsleydown Old Stairs crosses private land.
4: The passageway passes through and under a private building.
5: The passageway is not currently under the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000 a public right of way - if you think it should be I believe you have until 2020 to make your case - and frankly, rants about 'which has been ours for oveer 400 years' are not sufficient.
6: It leads to a historic structure, the watermen's stairs, which is (I assume) maintained by the PLA and (given the original use of watermen's stairs) is no more 'public property' than a railway station is, and stands on land - the Thames foreshore between high and low tide - that is also not public land.
7: I assume planning permission should have been applied for for the gates, not because they closed off public access but because they were an addition to the exterior of a listed building. And previous posts suggest it is too late to revisit that case.
8: Currently, the passageway seems to be treated as a 'permissive path'. It is maintained by the landowners and they have a perfect right to close it off at certain times. If they stick to the times announced on the prominent notices - gates locked at dusk, and occasionally at other times, for example in stormy weather when access to the riverside would be dangerous, then I think they should be supported, not yelled at.
9: Not surprisingly, the notices stress the dangers - it will take just one idiot to slip on a wet step and sue the landowners! (Of course, if it was a public highway they could sue the council instead.)
10: There is also a local phone number given to call if you are 'locked in' - a wise measure for anyone who finds themselves trapped on the foreshore by the rising tide after dusk!
john c i dont know how long you have lived here or been using these stairs,as i have for the past 11 years ,you seem to think that its ok for these people to put up signs and deny the public access,what utter rubbish about concern for safety ,take down the stupid signs and the filthy gates put things back as they were or take me and anyone else who obstucts these people from shutting these gates as i intend to do,to court ,i also i,d like to know what is your vested interest.southwark council have allowed these people to steal the original sign then ,i got it replaced only for it to be replaced again with one saying it is private land, it is not and they will not shut these gates, i will continue to access the river as and when i choose and you and the rest of the people who think we have to ask these people permission, can go and jump in the river ,in fact i think i will sleep there just to prove the point if its private land, let them arrest me and let a court decide if its private or not ,now thats a rant. as to nowtel and them providing internet services to anchor brewhouse managment ,that another load of rubbish,this whole issue is because they got burgled and dont want people walking through there without them having control.oh one other point pla are not reponsable for these stairs ,only up to the high water mark.if southwark council have seen the deeds, then let them publish them400 years of use makes this a right of way regardless.

Sorry - perhaps I misunderstood. I thought you were claiming it was a public right of way, which is what has been discussed before. But then it seems you mean it has been a public highway, unlawfully built over by the Anchor Brewery back in the 19th century? Or claimed unlawfully by the present landowners?
Or did I misunderstand? Since you also say '400 years of use makes this a right of way'? If it's a public right of way, do go and sleep there - you can also try that on a public footpath in the countryside, but don't be surprised if you're woken up and kicked off by the farmer. A right of way is just that - a WAY for people to go along about their lawful business. It doesn't give them the right to lay out a sleeping bag or set up camp for the night. (Come to that, neither does a public highway.)
If I lived locally one of my concerns about removing the gates and giving public access at night would, given the location, be the local drunks popping in for a quick p**s. (Why do you think similar passageways in old towns used to have names like 'Pissing Alley'? or have notices saying euphemistically 'Commit no nuisance'?)
'these people... put up signs and deny the public access' - they aren't denying the public access, they are granting the public access.
'you and the rest of the people who think we have to ask these people permission, can go and jump in the river' - you don't have to ask their permission, just go along during daylight hours and walk through the gates. If the gates are being locked on unreasonable occasions then there is cause for complaint.
'as to nowtel and them providing internet services to anchor brewhouse managment ,that another load of rubbish' - presumably you know far more than I do about Nowtel. I saw a notice saying they provided wifi services, looked them up on the web and discovered they were a telecom company (which seems reasonable given the name) - but in liquidation. Are you saying they have branched out into property management?
'one other point pla are not reponsable for these stairs ,only up to the high water mark' - agreed - I was talking about the historic watermen's stairs, which stand on the foreshore below high water mark.
Oh, and in answer to your personal questions/comments:
'i dont know how long you have lived here or been using these stairs,as i have for the past 11 years' - I've lived 'here' (the Borough) for 30 years and regard myself as a newcomer. I haven't used the stairs very often, I rarely visit Shad Thames - it's too trendy for me.
' ,i also i,d like to know what is your vested interest' - Why is it that so many people immediately assume that anyone who dares to say anything that can be construed as supporting 'the establishment' has a vested interest? And then use it as if it's an insult? I'm not sure what counts as a vested interest in this case. But I don't work for Southwark Council or the owners or management of the Anchor Brewhouse development. I don't live there, or in any other luxury converted warehouse on Shad Thames - or in a similar property anywhere else, with or without a river view. I'm not a lawyer with an interest in property law. I'm not a member of the Ramblers Association or the National Farmers Union. Give me a list of 'vested interests' and I'll see if I can tick any boxes.

Having viewed the plans of the proposed new gate, with no indication of materials or size of said gate, it would appear that cats, dogs and small humans will be able to crawl under the gate itself at any time.
How Southwark Council can seriously accept such a poorly put together application is beyond me.

So poorly put together the applicant tells the council it does not know what materials will be used for the gate.

Behind The Scenes of our work. We are a small production team based out of Santa Fe, NM . The principle of what we do is to support others; we execute the work that advertising agencies, producers, and private clients need but we do so behind their brands and companies. This means we are not advertising or even taking credit for the work, we leave that to our clients. This approach give us an edge. It allows us to focus more on the task of producing content and less on trying to build a brand or sell our services. We are a loyal and have found that once we start working with them, so are our clients.
I put my hands on my first 35mm photography camera at age 18 when my philosophy professor in college gave me one. Through the years my work and role behind the lens evolved, eventually moving into the role of Director of Photography. Working in the many areas of freelance through the years has expanded my skill sets in production work to include directing, editing, writing, creating, video assist, and most every other role on set at one time or another. I also have a strong passion for my work as a Steadicam operator. This specialty has allowed me to work with many other DPs and Directors through my career. Expanding my experiences much more than I could ever do without that opportunity for observing and collaborating. My work has taken me on many great adventures in my life both national and internationally. This allows me to grow both as a person and as a cinematographer. I am grateful.
As a kid, I first found my love for TV and film on home made VHS copies of "Star Wars" and "Tron". That love brought me to Northern Kentucky University, where I received awards in editing and documentary production. I have created content with NFL Films, VH1, and The Food Network to name a few. Working mostly as a Camera Operator, Gaffer, and Focus Puller; from composition to lighting, I enjoy creating visual beauty from the ground up. I deeply enjoy working with others and the team aspect of what I do. Being an extroverted person is at the heart of my ability to connect with people, work as a team player, and tell great stories. It also helps me live a pretty good life, one day at a time.

The notion that humans have natural, inalienable rights is the foundation of liberal democracies. Political philosophers – from John Locke to John Stuart Mill to John Rawls – argue that the foundation of the justice of the state is its respect for and protection of civil liberties, such as due process, freedom of speech, and right to privacy. In fact, civil liberties are so fundamental that some consider them as "sacred," and not to be subject to comparison or trade-offs.
However, when societies are faced with major crises, the trade-offs between individual civil liberties and societal well-being become acute and inevitable. On the one hand, the state's ability to weather the crises often hinges on mobilizing resources and imposing restrictions. On the other hand, as Friedrich Hayek puts it, "'Emergencies' have always been the pretext on which the safeguards of individual liberty have been eroded." Crises may become the excuse for permanent erosion of civil liberties and even a backsliding of civil democracies.
As the world confronts the global health threat of the COVID-19 pandemic, what are citizens willing to sacrifice and what are they steadfast in supporting no matter what the circumstance? How do citizens' views vary across countries and across demographic groups within a country? How do such views change over time in relation to the evolution of the pandemic? Given the scale of the pandemic and the extraordinary measures adopted by governments to curtail it, the COVID-19 crisis provides a unique and tragic opportunity to understand how citizens view the trade-offs between civil liberties and improved public health conditions.
While COVID-19 represents one of the largest and in many dimensions unprecedented crises in recent history, the debate about trading-off civil liberties during crises has been age-old. Similar discussions have repeatedly arisen in the past: for example, after the terrorist attacks in 2001 and the US government's surveillance of the population; after many devastating natural disasters when various governments move to restrict freedom; and after the Great Influenza in 1918 when many states imposed bans on public gatherings and enforced face masks in public space – much like what we are witnessing today, more than a century later (see Figures 1 and 2).
Figure 1: newspaper headlines during the Great Influenza in 1918
Figure 2: anti-mask movements in 1918 and 2020
In order to study how citizens view the trade-offs between civil liberties and improved public health conditions during the COVID-19 pandemic, my collaborators and I administered a large-scale representative survey during the past 7 months to more than 400,000 people in 15 countries – Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Singapore, Spain, South Korea, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the United States. By focusing directly on citizens' evolving attitudes toward public-health policies and civil liberties, we can see how people navigate the trade-offs brought on by the pandemic, as well as the factors that shape public preferences.
Figure 3: share of respondents unwilling to … for the sake of public health
(vertical lines indicate mean of respondents in the US as benchmark)
Several conclusions emerge from the study. First, a large fraction of people around the world reported being willing to sacrifice their own rights and freedoms in order to improve public health conditions during the COVID-19 pandemic. Overall, about 80% of respondents were willing to sacrifice at least some of their own rights in times of crisis, and citizens from the countries surveyed ranked the importance of core civil liberties similarly. For example, people tend to be least willing to give up rights to privacy or cede power to a central figure, and most willing to endure personal restrictions or significant economic losses.
However, the differences between countries are substantial (see Figure 3). For example, a mere 5% of respondents in China expressed an unwillingness to sacrifice any of their own rights during times of crisis, whereas four times as many respondents in the US did. Moreover, almost half of US respondents said they would not give any ground on freedom of the press, compared to under 5% of respondents in China. The citizens of Japan and the United States, for instance, tend to be among the least willing to sacrifice civil liberties in exchange for improved public health conditions. Conversely, the citizens of China and India seem to be among the most willing to. EU citizens tend to fall somewhere in between.
We also find that, in democratic societies, individuals who have stronger connections to countries that historically did not provide extensive protections of civil liberties are less willing to sacrifice their own rights and freedom for the sake of public health. Specifically, we find that individuals who live in regions that belonged to East Germany before reunification, and individuals who have relatives from North Korea reported being less willing to give up their rights than their co-national counterparts.
Second, we document a strong and robust pattern of individuals with greater exposure to health risks exhibiting a stronger willingness to give up civil liberties in the name of public health. Citizens more prone to COVID-19-related health complications and residing in COVID-19 hotspots are more willing to sacrifice individual rights and freedoms than are those who have a lower risk. Exposure to COVID-19 risks is associated with greater acceptance of policies to relax privacy protections, greater willingness to suspend democratic procedures and to delegate decision-making to experts, and greater tolerance of policies that curtail economic activity and mobility.
Third, we find that citizens' willingness to sacrifice civil liberties reflects more than just health concerns. People with less education and weaker attachments to the labor force, or (in the case of the US) who are members of racial and ethnic minorities, are less willing to trade off their rights than are other groups, even in the face of heightened health risks. Perhaps being able to accept restrictions on civil liberties is a "luxury" that members of these groups, who may have a long history of exclusion and abuse, cannot afford, so they view any such restrictions as a threat to their lives and livelihoods. It also is possible that those who are more economically advantaged already have their interests well represented by policymakers, and don't necessarily have to rely on free speech and assembly, much less worry about state surveillance.
Finally, we find that in most countries, people's willingness to give up civil liberties in exchange for improved public health conditions closely tracks the extent to which they are worried about the pandemic. As shown in Figure 4, between March and mid-June 2020, people became less worried about the risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, and their willingness to sacrifice their rights decreased. After a plateau period in the later summer, worries picked up again and so did people's willingness to sacrifice civil liberties for the sake of public health.
Figure 4: changes in willingness to … over time
This study paints a complicated picture of how citizens trade-off civil liberties during major crises. While many do not consider civil liberties as "sacred," their willingness to sacrifice rights and freedom during crises is shaped by different exposure to the health risks, diverse socioeconomic background, and distinct perceptions of the potential long-term erosion of civil liberties.
The policy responses adopted by governments, especially democratic ones, should be responsive to the preferences of the citizenry. The extent to which citizens comply with policies enacted in times of crises likely depends on whether they agree with the restrictions imposed by the policies, which could ultimately determine the efficacy of these policies against the pandemic. Moreover, providing safeguards that ensure restrictions are lifted once the crisis subsides would be instrumental in citizens' willingness to sacrifice rights and freedom during the crisis, and critical to the protection of the core values, rights and freedom that humanity fights for and cherishes dearly.

MDC Students Selected for Prestigious Cultural Summer Camp in Beijing, China; Trip Promotes Youth Dialogue and Understanding
Miami, June 10, 2013 – Ten Miami Dade College (MDC) students from varying disciplines were selected to attend a two-week cultural study abroad "summer camp" at the Beijing International Chinese College in Beijing. Held from July 1-14, the highly selective program promotes dialogue and understanding between youth in China and the US.
Of the 29 students selected nationally, MDC's students represent the largest group from the US and will join students from other prominent colleges, including the University of Chicago, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and Arizona State University, among others. At the camp, students will visit world famous cultural sites such as the Great Wall of China, local universities, high schools and meet with Chinese families. In addition to taking Mandarin language classes, students will learn Tai Chi, paper-cutting, Chinese yo-yo playing, painting, calligraphy and take part in a tea ceremony.
Sponsored by Hanban/Confucius Institute Headquarters in Beijing and organized by the Beijing International Chinese College (BICC), the program pays for lodging, tours, language classes and meals.
MDC's prestigious Confucius Institute was instrumental in identifying prospective students for the summer camp. "We are thrilled that ten of our students have been admitted to this highly selective summer camp in Beijing. Applicants must show good academic performance and have a willingness to explore other cultures," said Dr. Xuejun (Jim) Yu, Director of MDC's Confucius Institute. "I am very impressed with our students who are taking on this life-changing learning opportunity."
The increased number of MDC students selected this year reflects a growing enthusiasm for Chinese language and culture. MDC's Confucius Institute has played a key role in supporting the college's rich and thriving study abroad programs in China, which provides students with opportunities to gain an understanding of the social, cultural and economic issues of this fastest growing country in the world. Through such international exposure, members of the MDC community will be prepared to compete in the global marketplace and serve effectively as citizens and leaders of our increasingly globalized society.
For more information, contact Dr. Xuejun (Jim) Yu at 305- 237-7581 or xyu@mdc.edu.

South Derbyshire MP Calls on Residents to Help Improve Local Roads
Heather Wheeler, MP for South Derbyshire, is encouraging local residents to get involved with the Government's drive to improve local roads.
The Department for Transport is consulting on its plans for a Major Road Network consisting of smaller routes, managed by local councils, but which are some of the most important for businesses, commuters and families. These roads account for 98% of the overall road network but Government statistics show that delays on these local A-roads are significantly longer than on those managed by Highways England.
The Government plans to make fresh funding available for improvements to reduce congestion, alleviate bottlenecks and support economic growth. Successful schemes would receive between £20 million and £100 million in additional money.
As part of its consultation, the Government has published its vision for the Network and is looking for local people to give their views on whether other roads should also be considered in its plans.
Commenting on the consultation, Heather Wheeler MP said:
"Two thirds of England's journeys are made on local roads and it is great news that Government is making new money available to improve them.
By investing more locally we will see congestion reduced which will benefit everyone from businesses to those getting on with their day-to-day routine.
I would encourage everyone in South Derbyshire to have their say on what they feel the Government's priorities should be when it comes to roads. I hope as many constituents as possible will use this link and get involved in the consultation."
The consultation will run until 23rd March 2018 and is available below:

En everthing was ok but 10 miles later the clutch lever becomes less squeezer!!
And i can't squeez the lever at all, its stuck!
Is this a normal problem OR AM i the first haha..
Try loosing the bleeder valve to see if you can pull in the clutch lever. If you can, that would mean the master cylinder is problem okay. Check and see if the line it self has not been pinched some where. If it is all okay then it might be the clutch actuator cylinder binding up. #28 is the bleeder valve that you loosen to relieve the pressure. I hope that helps.
Hello thanx for the reaction..
Is tried the bleeder valve en i can pull the lever in that's positife but when i loses the lever i have the same problem !a garage have 1000 miles i go a new Oberon clutch slave cilinder placed ..think that's not the problem ..fryday the going to check it.

Q: loop through columns in an xts to find the max 3 values per column with the date in R Here is my code, I loop through the column of my DD xts
I store the 3 max values in outl
The problem is when I cbind the outl , I have the correct date for the first column but not for the others. Is there a way to correct that?
Outpout = NULL
i = 1
while (i<dim(DD)[2]+1){
  outl = sort(DD[,i], TRUE)[1:3]
i = i+1

Outpout = cbind(Outpout,outl)
}

Here is the result of my Outpout

Study is any reviewing of course work other than homework or specific teacher directed activity. This may include writing study notes and summaries, mind maps, research, flowcharts, diagrams and other revision strategies.
contacting their Year Coordinator if they experience difficulty managing their homework requirements.
encouraging a homework and study routine and providing rewards such as verbal praise or television time, for the completion of study even when there is no set homework, since there is always extra reading or learning which can be done.
How much homework and study should a student do?
The amount and complexity of homework and study vary according to the stage of study. Students need to be able to balance homework and study with after-school and weekend leisure activities.
The exact amount of time will depend on the individual ability of the student, the student's subject combination, how the student is progressing and the difficulty level of the course.

Automakers recall 1.7 million cars with fatal airbags
NEW YORK (AP) — Subaru, Tesla, BMW, Volkswagen, Daimler Vans, Mercedes and Ferrari are recalling about 1.7 million vehicles to replace potentially deadly air bag inflators made by Takata Corp. of Japan.
The inflators can hurl shrapnel into drivers and passengers. At least 23 people have died from the problem worldwide and hundreds more were injured.
The moves, announced Friday by the U.S. government, are part of the largest series of automotive recalls in U.S. history. About 10 million inflators are being recalled in the U.S. this year, with as many as 70 million to be recalled by the time the whole mess ends late next year.
Ford, Honda, Toyota, and Fiat Chrysler already released their 2019 Takata recalls totaling more than 5 million vehicles.

With preparation, we'll be able to share our faith in a gentle, honest manner.
Knowing God's Word and understanding what we believe are essential for growth in Christ and protection from deception. However, these alone aren't the final goal. We are not left on earth merely to know for ourselves what God has said. Rather, we're to share His good news. In other words, we're to be "ready to make a defense to everyone who asks [us] to give an account for the hope that is in [us]" (1 Peter 3:15).
The word defense means "an answer one gives to explain himself." Believers should be ready to give an account of their motives and reasons for holding on to their hope in Christ. Because of busy lifestyles, many Christians have never taken the time to really think through their views and beliefs. When someone challenges them, they feel a sense of panic because they're totally unprepared.
Giving an account for our faith must be accompanied by a gentle, respectful delivery. Aggressively dumping a load of truth on a questioning person rarely leads him to God, but a gentle answer opens hearts as well as ears.
And remember, people watch to see if all we profess is backed up with a life of integrity. A Christian who is living a hypocritical lifestyle will have a worthless testimony.
These verses were not written to scholars; they were intended for ordinary people with jobs and families. The task isn't impossible, yet it requires time spent reading and studying God's Word. In setting Christ apart as the Lord of your heart, you will find that time with Him becomes a joy, not a sacrifice.

Vivian Suter – documenta14
Curator: Adam Szymczyk
Participants: Vivian Suter,
Sterna Art Project is pleased to announce the cooperation with documenta 14 in the context of its residency programme. The cooperation between the two organizations consists of the participation of artist Vivian Suter that will be in residency from October 10 to early November in order to create the art pieces to be exhibited in documenta 14. Vivian Suter lives and works in Panajachel, Guatemala, making her home on the grounds of a former coffee plantation. Since the early 1980s, most of her artistic works have been created against this backdrop, and many have become a part of it.
Documenta is recognised as the world's most renowned and debated exhibition of contemporary art, presenting new directions to an international audience every five years. Documenta was founded in Kassel in 1955 by a group of experts and aficionados led by the artist and designer Arnold Bode. Their intention was to show that modern art had a place in the process of reconstructing German society after World War II.
Artistic Director Adam Szymczyk has proposed a twofold structure for the exhibition, as reflected in the working title "Learning from Athens," as the guiding principle of documenta 14. In 2017, Kassel and the Greek capital will host the exhibition on an equal footing. For documenta 14, participating artists have been invited to think and produce within the context of the emerging dynamic relationship between these two cities and to develop a work for each of the two locations.

BOYS BASKETBALL: Wood's Funk headed to Army
Todd Thorpe
tthorpe@theintell.com
After a breakout junior season, Archbishop Wood point guard Tommy Funk didn't wait for his senior year to start before making his college decision.
Funk announced Monday that he would be attending and playing basketball for Army, the United States Military Academy in West Point, New York.
"I think it was a mixture of the Academy being so prestigious and a mixture of basketball," said Funk, who is listed at 6-foot and lives in Warrington. "Coming into this (recruiting process), I said that I wanted to go to somewhere where I could be proud of the degree that I had, and separate myself from others.
"They also have a basketball program that the past few years has been the best it has been in a while. I think they're making strides to be a championship team.''
As a junior, Funk, in his first year as a starter, averaged 14.6 points, 5.5 assists, 3 steals and 4.5 rebounds per game, which earned him second team Philadelphia Catholic League All-Catholic honors in a league stacked with Division I-caliber point guards like Roman Catholic's Tony Carr and Conwell-Egan's Stevie Jordan.
"He helped us win a lot of games last year," said Vikings coach John Mosco. "He's a tremendous leader and a smart individual. I think he scored a perfect 800 in math (on his SATs). He's the consummate winner."
He helped the Vikings go 18-6 and 8-5 in the PCL, including monumental wins for the Wood program over both La Salle and Roman. He scored nine points and went head-to-head against Roman's Carr, who recently committed to Penn State, in a 64-58 upset win on the road over the Cahillites.
Funk had a season-high 26 points against Bonner-Prendergast.
"It's been special," he said. "We've always been kind of a middle of the road type team. We're starting to show signs that we can eventually be a powerhouse program. I'd like to be a part of one of those teams."

Q: How to append images to an array based on their background color? I have a selected card/image called selectedCard. I have an array of UIImageViews called imageArray. I have a new/empty array of type UIImageViews called newImageArray. I am trying to create a function that checks the imageViews in imageArray and if the image is the same as the selectedCard and background color is blue then append the rest of the images with blue background colors into the newImageArray. Else if, check the imageViews in imageArray and if the image is the same as the selectedCard and background color is white then append the rest of the images with white background colors into the newImageArray. I am creating a card app and the user will be presented with 8 cards to choose from. The user will need to pick 4 of these cards. If their selectedCard is apart of the 4 the picked then I want to store all four in an array. If their selectedCard is not apart of the four they selected then I want to store the four non selected cards into the array.
I have created an if else statement with a for loop inside but I am not having any luck and not sure what to do at this point.
func isCardHighlighted() {
    for imageView in imageArray {
        if imageView.image == selectedCard && imageView.backgroundColor == UIColor.blue {
            for imageView in imageArray {
                if imageView.backgroundColor == UIColor.blue {
                    newImageArray.append(imageView.image!)
                } else {
                    print("Can't add because background is not blue.")
                }
            }
        } else if imageView.image == selectedCard && imageView.backgroundColor == UIColor.white {
            for imageView in imageArray {
                if imageView.backgroundColor == UIColor.white {
                    newImageArray.append(imageView.image!)
                } else {
                    print("Can't add because background is not white.")
                }
            }
        } else {
            print("error")
        }
    }
}

Basically if the selectedCard is highlighted (background is blue) then I want to save it and the other three highlighted images to the newImageArray. If the selectedCard is not highlighted (background is white) then I want to save it and the other three images to the newImageArray.

A: I solved the problem I was having.
Since the newImageArray function was at the top of the class like this var newImageArray: [UIImage]!  I needed to add this-> newImageArray = UIImage to the top of the isCardHighlighted() function.For other new beginners like myself, the reason this needed to be done is because optionals ALWAYS have to be instantiated before you can use them.


The Maha Cork Yoga Block is ideal for both the beginner and seasoned yogi! Add some extra reach for those who do not feel flexible enough or use it to find some lift for more advanced poses.
The Maha Cork Yoga Block helps you to complete yoga poses with comfort. Blocks can help with balance and add height in standing poses. They are also great for providing extra support, lift or grounding in numerous standing and seated postures. When placed between the knees they can activate the outer leg muscles. The key to using a block in your yoga practice is to engage the muscles in your hands and arms to find some lift rather than resting or sinking into the block.
The natural texture helps to provide traction to stop your hands from slipping whilst the rounded edges help to create a comfortable surface. It's strong and non-slip so it won't distort under your weight or cause damage to floors and toes. Cork is an eco-friendly material. It is lightweight and easy to carry so great for the home or studio.
The Maha Cork Yoga Block makes a great addition to your yoga kit!


Walter B. Levis, a former crime reporter, now teaches and works freelance. His nonfiction has appeared in newspapers and magazines including The National Law Journal, The Chicago Reporter, The Chicago Lawyer, The New Republic, Show Business Magazine, and The New Yorker. He is author of the novel MOMENTS OF DOUBT (2003). His short fiction, which includes a 1991 Henfield Prize and a 2006 Pushcart nomination, has appeared in a variety of publications, including North Dakota Quarterly, The Amherst Review, The Cimarron Review, and The Connecticut Review, among many others. Mr. Levis earned a Master's Degree in Journalism from Northwestern University and an MFA from Columbia University.
About the novel: Eli Shaffner had it all—an attractive, intelligent girlfriend, a wealthy family, the perks of privilege. It was the opportunity to build the kind of life most people can only dream about. But a few obstacles got in his way—lust, pride, and a high-minded sense of professional purpose. In the darkly comic tradition of Saul Bellow and Philip Roth, Moments of Doubt is the emotionally charged account of how a man makes his way through passion, pain, and paradox toward the cathartic realization that sometimes, in the end, the very things you thought were destroying your life prove to be the only things that can make you happy.

Review: His Personal Assistant by L.J. Harris
Title: His Personal Assistant
Series: Men of New York: Book One
Author: L.J. Harris
Publisher: Self-Published/Kindle Unlimited
At a Glance: I have mixed feelings about this book. It was promising but, in the end, it left me feeling underwhelmed.
Reviewed By: Lindsey
Blurb: At the tender age of twenty-one, Kade Hutchins is at a crossroads, having endured enough hardship to last a thousand lifetimes. With money tight and career at a standstill, he's running out of time and options. The day he applies for a job that isn't exactly in his field of expertise and meets his new boss, Mr. Preston, is the day his fate is changed irrecoverably.
Luke Preston is the kind of man others envy. Rich, successful and unattached, his no-nonsense, 'take no prisoners attitude' has made him one of the highest profile litigators in Manhattan. He's also a man with secrets. Secrets he wants kept under wraps since tragedy rocked his privileged existence to the core. When Kade, a man some fifteen years his junior steps foot inside his office, Luke wonders if his heart will survive.
Review: I have a thing for office romance tropes, and done well, I am totally into them. Unfortunately, this one missed the mark for me. Kade's character was likable. Despite his younger age, he was leaps and bounds more mature than Luke, IMO. He was overall level-headed and generally a calming influence. His reactions were mostly believable, except for one glaring reaction that just made no sense. I'll elaborate on that momentarily. If I had to pick one thing I genuinely liked about this book, it was Kade.
Have you ever read a book, and something early one sort of taints the experience and then you just can't seem to get over it? I think that is what happened for me here. There were positive things, but after one thing in particular happened, I just found myself not being able to properly enjoy the relationship or anything else going on. The first chapter I was all in. I had high hopes for Luke and Kade's relationship. Luke was just plain awful, and there is nothing I love more than watching a character grow and give you peeks that there is more than meets the eye. I enjoy reading a character slowly fall for the other character as understanding is given and trust is earned. That deliberate reveal of the character's true nature, where I too fall for them after despising them, is like ambrosia to me. It seemed like that is what would happen here. But then a curveball came seemingly out of nowhere. Yes, Kade falls in love with Luke. Which is what I wanted. But my issue was when he first realizes he has deep feelings for him. It was very early in the game, way, way, way too early. At that point there had been absolutely nothing to create the plausibility of those feelings. Not just recognizing his feelings, but the level of emotion Kade felt had me straight up dumbfounded. At that moment I began to lose interest.
Unfortunately, so many different aspects of the story fell into the farfetched category for me, and at times were just plain ridiculous. The way Kade gets hired absolutely makes no sense and wasn't fully explained in a believable manner as to how and why it went down the way it did. Especially because later in the book a realistic way to hire someone is completed.
The second half actually portrayed Luke in a much more favorable manner. Told mostly from his POV, more insight is given as he struggles to overcome guilt and insecurity and accept his feelings for Kade. He is an inconsistent character, and that made it harder for me to really connect with him. Even so, I'll be honest and admit that had Kade waited for his moment of realization until closer to the second half of the book, I may have been more favorable towards the story. Regrettably, the damage was done already, and I had trouble getting into their relationship, no matter how hard I wished it so.
Though the last half the book seemed to flow better and make more sense, I just couldn't get into it. Everything was just okay and, if I am honest, a wee bit over the top in areas. There is a twist thrown in, and it helps create angst and a bit of suspense, but its execution was on the outrageous side and, at its conclusion, left a lot more questions than answers as to motivations.
Despite a promising beginning and a decent second half, in the end I found the story underwhelming.

74 Arthur Street North
Mavis Bank is situated on land that was originally surveyed by The Canada Company and first owned by Reverend Arthur Palmer, an Irish immigrant who arrived in Canada in 1832. The Palmer Survey was registered in 1855 and comprised of 38 lots, of which Mavis bank sits on 14 and 15. The entire parcel was named, Tyrcathlen, which was the name Palmer also gave to his palatial residence on Stuart Street.
"Mavis Bank" is culturally associated with Laura Lemon, the well-known Canadian author and composer. She was born in Guelph on October 15, 1866 and Mavis Bank was her childhood home from birth until her father moved the family in 1871. The Town of Guelph tax assessment records show that occupancy of Lots 12-15 of Plan 32 transferred to Laura Lemon's family in 1866.
Architecturally, "Mavis Bank" is a rare example of stucco-over-stone, Neo-Classic Vernacular design. Its major point of interest is the unique bow-roofed trellis and lattice verandah that wraps around the north-east corner, north and west sides of the home.
"Mavis Bank" yields a commanding presence on the east bank of the Speed River. The Speed River's status as a Canadian Heritage River (automatically acquired as a major tributary to the Grand River, designated in 1994), contributes greatly to the contextual value of the property. Surrounded by mature trees on a spacious lot, Mavis Bank continues to be a focal point within the City of Guelph. The property's location functions as a historical point of interest in Guelph's northeast cultural landscape.

Nancy Pelosi's son, who tagged along on Taiwan trip, is investor in Chinese tech firm: report
The son of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who quietly accompanied his mother on last week's controversial trip to Taiwan where she called out China for its threatening moves toward the self-ruled island, holds a stake in a Chinese technology company, according to a report on Thursday. Paul Pelosi Jr., who received 700,000 shares of Borqs Technologies as compensation for his services, became the second-largest investor after CEO Pat Sek Yuen Chan when other company insiders sold their shares in June 2021, the Daily Mail reported, citing Security and Exchange Commission filings. As of March 2022, Pelosi Jr. still owned around 147,000 shares — or about 0.07% of outstanding shares. The report said Pelosi Jr., 53, also worked for the company, which has a market value of about $22 million, in a board of consultancy role.  He traveled with his mother as she led a Democratic congressional delegation to Asia that included stops in South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan and Taiwan, but his name wasn't included in the official list of officials on the trip released by the speaker's office.

When a sailor hits a dead spot where the wind refuses to blow he cays he is "in irons." Japan's economy sailed into the irons this past quarter when its GDP declined for the second quarter in a row and officially signaled a recession. GDP fell 0.8% in the third quarter after shrinking 0.7% in the second on an annualized basis. This marks the fourth recession Japan has endured since the global crisis hit in 2008.
Following so soon on the heels of massive stimulus, the recession should strike a death blow to mainstream monetary theory. Abenomics, the economic recovery plan that Prime Minister Shinzo Abe launched in 2012, was the poster child for mainstream monetary theory. Japan would wash away deflation and decline with a torrent of new money.
Europe isn't technically in a recession, but inflation has fallen and growth is so low that the difference between growth and recession may be difficult for the average European to grasp. The inflation rate in the Big EZ is currently 0.1%. Frightened by deflation, the European Central Bank's head Mario Draghi promised to open the monetary spigot even further.
The top mainstream economists, all Nobel-Prize winners, declared the end of the business cycle in the late 1990s after nearly a decade of the "Great Moderation." They announced that the US would never face major downturns in the economy again because they had figured out how to use monetary policy effectively. They took credit for creating the "Great Moderation" and announced that monetary policy would quickly smother the fires of any minor downturns in the economy.
The mild recession of 2001 did little to dent the confidence of mainstream economists, but the Great Recession should have. Now Japan has suffered another recession after the most complete implementation of their policies outside of the US and Europe.
Of course, they have argued that the sales tax increases in Japan derailed the monetary policy. But a reasonable person can be forgiven for thinking that monetary policy must be awfully timid if a small sales tax increase can frighten it away.
The real problem with modern monetary theory is that its inventors have defined it in such a way that it's impossible to test it. They use Milton Friedman's analogy of a car. Friedman said that monetary policy is like a driver using the gas pedal to cause the car to speed up. On a flat road in the desert, pushing on the gas pedal will cause the car (the economy) to accelerate and releasing it will cause the car to slow down.
But in the mountains, pushing on the gas pedal may not cause the car to speed up if it's driving up a steep grade. The car may continue to slow down as the driver pushes harder on the gas pedal but he isn't pushing hard enough to provide enough gas to the engine to make the car go faster. The lesson is that the only way to tell if the Fed is providing enough gas to the economy in the form of new money is if the nominal GDP is speeding up. No matter what the Fed has done in the past, if nominal GDP is not accelerating then the Fed has a tight monetary policy.
The analogy is great if one assumes that monetary policy is omnipotent. But what if it's not? What if monetary policy doesn't work the way mainstream economists claim? What if it causes more harm than good as Austrian economists assert? How can we who have not drunk the Kool-Aid of mainstream monetary theory test it?
Clearly, we can't if we accept their analogy. It assumes its conclusion, which is called circular reasoning in logic. It also assumes that all economic growth comes exclusively from creating new money.
Another way to look at the economy is to compare pre-Fed business cycles with post-Fed cycles. Pre-Fed we see that the economy suffered recessions about as often as the post-Fed period but recovered must faster and more robustly than post-Fed recessions. The pre-Fed economy never suffered a Great Depression and no slow recoveries like the current one. They were almost all V-shaped.
The pre-Fed economy never enjoyed massive monetary printing or government spending as the post-Fed economy has, and yet it always recovered from recessions with enthusiasm. That teaches an important lesson: a free economy has a natural impetus to recovery that is very strong. It comes from mankind's natural tendency to truck, barter and trade, to paraphrase Adam Smith.
One recovery in the post-Fed era proves the point. If we combine the 1981 and 1982 recessions, separated only by six months, into one recession, then that one was almost as deep as the Great Recession of 2008, the worst since the Great Depression. The 1981-82 recession went so deep because the Fed had raised interest rates very high in order to squash inflation. But the Fed never lowered rates to boost the economy. Neither did the federal government spend massive amounts. Business people (the micro economy) were on their own, as they had been pre-Fed, and they lifted the US out of a deep recession into strong growth that lasted for almost a decade.

The United Nations pushes abortion rights. In an article by John-Henry Westen, he writes in his first paragraph (for LifeSiteNews.com) that "Silvia Pimentel, has distinguished herself as one of the leading promoters of abortion on the United Nations Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW). Elected to sit on the committee in January 2005 and currently serving as Vice Chair, Pimentel is one of the 23 'experts' on the UN body which monitors compliance with the UN convention of the same name."
Emphasis is mine. See the connection? "Eliminate discrimination of women and abortion." Get it? If you do, please let me know.
"While it may not be surprising that a CEDAW committee member encourages countries to permit abortion, even though abortion does not fall within the UN committee's mandate, the fact that Pimentel is a Professor of Legal Philosophy at the Pontifical Catholic University of Sao Paulo is raising eyebrows."
"In the most recent round of CEDAW committee meetings which ended last week, the UN body took up compliance reports and made recommendations on eight countries. During the meetings concerning Togo and Thailand, Pimentel promoted abortion."

Bats Silent Against Stars
posted Jun 18, 2011, 9:28 AM by Alan Jacob
By Adam Winbigler
Strong pitching and late runs not enough to break losing streak
In their second game under the lights, the Greyhounds looked for their first win since defeating the Attack at home two games previously. However, the early stages of the game made that particular task look daunting. The Stars, playing at home, jumped out to a five run lead after 3 innings, in which the Greyhounds were unable to bring a runner home.
In that third inning, however, Derek Goerke took the hill with one out, shutting the Stars down without any more runs through the third inning. In a stellar performance, Goerke went on to shut the Stars out for the rest of the game. In 2 2/3 innings, Goerke faced eight batters and sat them down, including four strikeouts.
In the fifth, the Greyhounds' bats came alive. Three runs were scored, highlighted by Julian "J.J." Jacob's two-run single with two outs. The inning started with two outs, but the Greyhounds struck after a hit by Ryan Brown. Nick Talerico drew his second walk on the next at-bat, and three runs were scored on the following two hits.
The Greyhound came out firing in the sixth, determined to gain the lead. In a masterful display of base running, Jackson Winbigler- pinch-running for Grant Stephenson- stole second, third, and home to narrow the lead to one. Anthony Hall then took the plate and doubled with two out to put the tying run in scoring position. Sadly, it was not to be; he was stranded at second as the Stars notched the final out to win, 5-4.
Come out to cheer on the Greyhounds as they attempt to break their losing streak. The next game is tonight at 8pm at the home of the Macomb Scorpions. Go Greyhounds!
