Lat n Long of The Heart: house purging.
The husband & I have spent the past month purging the house.
I've always wanted to be a minimalist and I am faaaaaaaaaaaaaar from being one.
I woke up one day and decided that we needed to throw almost our whole house away. We've never really purged in the 7 years that we have lived here and have gone through multiple roomates - so it was time. We have done the first layer and now it's time to dig really deep and purge the 2nd layer. Ya know the tedious stuff like the medicine cabinets, the junk drawers, and the bathrooms cabinets.
I'm really questioning the counter stuff at the moment because the remodel of our kitchen is my next focus .. and for those with little kiddos you know that the counter is never cleared off.
The plan for the kitchen is a pretty extensive makeover. We are going to build a pantry and add a lower level of cabinets. I want to paint the kitchen this white color called Swiss Coffee, which will be happening in the next couple of weekends. I'm trying to convince the husband to change the counter tops to this sparkling white quartz when we add the lower cabinets. I also want to make this country mirror display that I found on pinterest for our kitchen <above>. I'm also wanting to change the sink to a country sink and personally add a back splash.. like i said I have a pretty extensive list for the kitchen.
I'm a picture whore y'all. I love pictures and love canvas prints. It's almost an addiction. I've just got the problem of being selective with my kids pictures and I can't choose so I get them all.. no seriously. lol. I mean how do you choose? but I gotta. I'm easy to shop for though.. just get me a white picture frame - or a picture album - and I'm super excited.
The plan is go room by room and just revamp the rooms. The kid rooms wont change but our master needs a whole new everything. I'll also be creating Little Man his own big boy room/ABA room/play room after we get back from Texas. The husband wants the toys out of the living room but he'll have to agree to buy new living room furniture first.
I have a lot of plans for change and hopefully we'll complete this list in the next year. It's a lot and especially with three small kiddo's.. but I'll talk more about those changes in the next post.

Thailand: Central Bank unveils new bank notes depicting King Rama X
March 9, 2018 By Michael Alexander 1 Comment
The Bank of Thailand have unveiled (8th March) the new series of bank notes which will depict the country's new King Rama X, who succeeded his father the late King Bhumibul Adulyadej (Rama IX), after a reign of 70 years — the longest reign within the Chakri dynasty and in Thai history. The new bank notes which are designated as series 17, were only finalised after the elaborate cremation ceremony of the late king in October 2017 — one year after his actual death. They depict the 65-year-old King Maha Vajiralongkorn (Rama X) who is dressed in the uniform of an air force commander in a three-quarter left-facing portrait which is placed towards the right half of the bank notes. The colour designations for the currently circulating five denominations, 20 to 10000 baht of the current series, remains — as do the dimensions of the series 16 bank notes.
The back side of all the notes have also undergone change as the five designs all carry images of all 10 Thai kings who were born into the Chakri dynasty. The Bank of Thailand have advised the public that three of the smallest denominations, the 20, 50, and 100-baht notes will be officially released into circulation from the 6th April, which is also the national celebration of the Chakri dynasty founding — as well as the 236th anniversary. The two remaining denominations of the 500 and 1,000-baht bank notes are presently under production and will be officially released on the 28th July, which is the 66th birthday of HM King Rama X.
Green 20-baht: The back depicts the image of King Phra Phutthayotfa Chulalok (Rama I), who founded the Chakri dynasty as king of Siam on the 6th April 1782. The second image includes King Phra Phutthaloetla Naphalai (Rama II), who reigned from 1809 until his death. The note measures 72 x 138 millimeters.
Blue 50-baht: The back depicts the image of King Nangklao (Rama III), who was succeeded by his younger brother, King Phra Bat Somdet Phra Poramenthra Maha Mongkut (Rama IV). Rama IV is internationally renowned as the king who was portrayed in the musical The King and I, which is the story of Missionary Anna Harriette Emma Leonowens years in the Court of Siam as a teacher of the king's children. The note measures 72 x 144 millimeters.
Red 100-baht: The back depicts the image of King Poraminthra Maha Chulalongkorn (Rama V). Chulalongkrn is remembered in Thailand as having saved the country from colonisation by British and French armies. The second image is that of King Phra Bat Somdet Phra Poramenthra Maha Vajiravudh (Rama VI). Aside from being the country's head of state, King Rama VI is also remembered as one of Thailand's highly renowned artists, as he wrote modern novels, short stories, newspaper articles, poems, plays, and journals. The note measures 72 x 150 millimeters.
*Under production purple 500-baht: The back depicts the image of King Prajadhipok (Rama VII). He is remembered as the last absolute monarch and the first constitutional monarch of the country, as well as the only Thai king to abdicate. He was succeeded by his kinsman, Ananda Mahidol (Rama VIII). Nine-years-old at the time of his recognition as king of Thailand by the National Assembly, he was at school in Switzerland. Upon his return to Thailand to assume his duties as king, he was inexplicably found to have been shot dead under very mysterious circumstances. The note measures 72 x 156 millimeters.
*Under production brown 1,000-baht: The back depicts his late Majesty Bhumibol Adulyadej (Rama IX). Born in Massachusetts, King Rama IX is Thailand's only king born in the United States. He succeeded his older brother King Ananda and became the longest reigning king in Thai history, beloved by the whole nation and whose death was greatly mourned. The second image is that of HM King Maha Vagiralongkorn (Rama X), who is standing alongside the father he succeeded in 2016. The note measures 72 x 162 millimeters.
The bank notes issued from 2012 to 2015 within the 16th series as well as bank notes issued in 2017, which were in commemoration of the late King Rama IX, are currently in circulation and will remain legal tender until otherwise directed by the Bank of Thailand.

The 2019 Valero Texas Open betting odds have been released for the week at TPC San Antonio's AT&T Oaks Course in San Antonio, Texas.
The betting favorite is Rickie Fowler, who comes in at 10-to-1 (+1000) betting odds to start the week. Matt Kuchar and Tony Finau are next best at 16-to-1, with Jordan Spieth at 20-to-1.
Billy Horschel -- He's got a good history here, and he's been able to notch together close to a 9-month run without missing a cut on the PGA Tour.
Aaron Baddeley -- Probably should be closer to 75-to-1, but Badds likes this course and is coming off a top-10 in the DR.
Scott Stallings -- An all-or-nothing kind of guy, Stallings is either gonna come close or miss the cut the way he's going of late.
Scottie Scheffler -- Scheffler almost won on the Web last week in Savannah, and he's showed some PGA Tour life before.


I love dinner parties where people cook the food themselves. It's like Forrest Gump's box of chocolates - you never know what you're gonna get!
Tony had cooked a CSIRO eggplant moussaka deliciously gravied minced beef sandwiched between layers of egg plant, and Ati had made a Russian salad. a dense, richly flavoured affair of potatoes (hey it's Russian - but I bet Anzhela will reckon it's Bulgarianised), cream, and other colourful bits of plant material (it is a salad after all). Both were so delicious that I wolfed down a monster-serving of moussaka and ate more than was wise of the heavy salad, which was surely expanding in my stomach as soon as it got there. Who would have thought that a scientifically designed moussaka would taste so good?
Washed down with a 2004 Picardy Pinot Noir. This is a subtle, refined and restrained wine - certainly not made in the big brash Antipodean pinot style, but leaning more towards your burgundian approach, albeit without the noseloads of aromatic perfume. I do worry about my bottles of the 1997 and 1998 vintages - they may have faded away.
I alo brought a couple of things which had been knocking around in my fridge for the last couple of months, safely stored in a loving cocoon of duck fat - a sheet of pre-cooked pig skin, and a couple of duck breasts which had previously been stewed in duck fat on low heat (120 degrees Celsius) for a couple of hours.
The pork crackling, of course was my pride and joy. Based on a recipe from Fergus Henderson, chef of St John Bread & Wine, my favourite restaurant in the whole wide world, it requires one and a half weeks in the making. With most of the fat trimmed off at 3 different stages throughout the cooking process, this is a truly healthy dish, and I defy any naysayers to prove otherwise! Given the fact that it is virtually pure protein, Tony thought it would be a great after work-out snack. I agree, and don't care what anybody says.
Sorry - I forgo to take some photos. When I next make my crackling for the Cook 2 Cure, I'll provide some photos of the whole process, and give you some details on the recipe too.

U N P U B L I S H E D O P I N I O N
In this appeal from a judgment awarding respondents relief in a water-rights dispute involving appellants' construction of dams across a creek, appellants argue that (1) they did not violate the doctrine of "reasonable use" by restricting the creek's water flow across their property and, therefore, there is no basis for awarding respondents damages for their crops; (2) the creek as it crosses appellants' property is not a public water under Minn. Stat. § 103G.005, subd. 15 (2002), and, therefore, Minn. Stat. § 103G (2002) does not apply to this case; and (d) the district court erred in granting respondents relief under the Minnesota Environmental Rights Act (MERA), Minn. Stat. § 116B (2002). We affirm.
Appellants Kenneth L. and Bonnie Peterson and respondents Keith L. and Charolette A. Gillette and Douglas L. and Pamela M. Sheely are the owners of adjacent properties used for agricultural purposes. The Sheely property adjoins the southern boundary of the appellant's property, and the Gillette property adjoins the eastern boundary of appellants' property.
This action arises out of appellants' construction on their property of dams or field crossings over Roberts Creek, which runs across the Gillette property, then enters the Sheely property and runs along its northern boundary until the creek turns north and enters appellants' property. Where Roberts Creek runs along the northern boundary of the Sheely property, a previous owner deepened it into a ditch. The ditch ends where Roberts Creek turns north to enter appellants' property. Immediately to the west of appellants' property, Roberts Creek becomes a designated public watercourse.
Kenneth Peterson testified that when he first began farming his property, there was no identifiable channel where the creek crossed his land, but rather the waterway consisted of bogs or wetland that was mostly level with the ground. In 1983, a contractor hired by Kenneth Peterson deepened and widened Roberts Creek where it ran across appellants' property. Initially, the ditch was six feet deep and 25 feet wide, with a fall of 13 to 14 feet from the northern boundary of the Sheely property to the point where it exited appellants' property.
Kenneth Peterson testified that before the ditch was constructed, Roberts Creek was about three to four feet lower as it ran along the Sheely property than where it entered appellants' property; drain tiles on the Sheely property discharged into Roberts Creek; the tile outlets were lower than the elevation of Roberts Creek where it entered appellants' property; construction of the ditch in 1983 changed a forced water outlet into a natural outlet; and over several years following construction of the ditch in 1983, he deepened and widened it and raised its banks to eliminate flooding problems.
Mower County constructed a field crossing and installed a culvert across Roberts Creek near the western boundary of appellants' property. Because the crossing was too shallow for farm implements to cross, Kenneth Peterson raised the level of the crossing and installed a second culvert with a 24-inch diameter. Kenneth Peterson also constructed two additional field crossings across Roberts Creek. One of those field crossings was located near the southern boundary of appellants' property, and the other one was located between the western and southern field crossings. In addition to allowing farm implements to cross Roberts Creek, the field crossings created ponds on appellants' property, which, according to Kenneth Peterson's testimony, prevented the flooding of his property. Kenneth Peterson designed the field crossings himself and used dirt, rocks, and demolition debris to construct them.
William Douglass, a licensed engineer, testified about the impact of the field crossings on the flow of water through Roberts Creek. Douglass testified that on the south field crossing, he observed a 36-inch culvert covered with dirt and rocks, creating a four-foot obstruction with a 36-inch pipe. The 36-inch pipe was further obstructed on the downstream side by about two lengths of 30-inch pipe about eight feet long. The middle field crossing did not have a culvert and held water back to an elevation of at least three feet. The western field crossing contained multiple culverts, but none of them appeared to be running, meaning they were either plugged or gated. Douglass observed water ponding around the southern and middle field crossings. Douglass testified that most agricultural drainage tiles are designed to handle a two-year rainfall. A two-year rainfall is a rainfall with a probability of occurring on the average every two years or, in other words, a two-year rainfall is an event with a 50% chance of occurring in any given year. For a two-year rainfall, the obstruction resulting from the southern field crossing would cause water to surcharge over the drainage tiles on the Sheely property. Submersion of the drain tiles would reduce their capacity, resulting in an increase in the time needed for water to drain from the field. Douglass also testified about the degradation of water quality resulting from insufficient drainage of ponds, explaining that oxygen will be used up because the pond is not being reaerated by moving water, eventually resulting in decreased dissolved oxygen downstream. Insufficient drainage can also cause additional problems, including odors.
Douglas Sheely testified that his corn crop was damaged when a drainage tile stood full of water too long due to being underwater. The damage occurred in an area where water damage did not typically occur. Sheely estimated that the amount of damage was about $725.
Following a court trial, the district court determined that appellants violated the duty of reasonable use, discharged pollutants into the creek, and violated the MERA. The district court awarded respondents $750 in damages; permanently enjoined appellants from obstructing the Roberts Creek channel without first securing permits from the state and appropriate design plans; and awarded respondents costs and disbursements, including attorney fees under the MERA. This appeal from the judgment followed.
On appeal from a judgment in a court trial where no motion for a new trial was made, we consider whether the evidence sustains the district court's findings and whether those findings support the court's conclusions of law and judgment. Doan v. Medtronic, Inc., 560 N.W.2d 100, 104 (Minn. App. 1997), review denied (Minn. May 14, 1997). A district court's findings "shall not be set aside unless clearly erroneous, and due regard shall be given to the opportunity of the [district] court to judge the credibility of the witnesses." Minn. R. Civ. P. 52.01. In applying rule 52.01, "we view the record in the light most favorable to the judgment." Rogers v. Moore, 603 N.W.2d 650, 656 (Minn. 1999).
Appellants argue that the district court erred in determining that construction of the field crossings violated the doctrine of reasonable use. With regard to a landowner's diversion or obstruction of surface water, Minnesota follows the rule of reasonable use. Quist v. Kroening, 410 N.W.2d 5, 6 (Minn. App. 1987). "[W]hat is a reasonable use is a fact question to be resolved depending on the facts of each case." Kral v. Boesch, 557 N.W.2d 597, 599 (Minn. App. 1996). Accord Enderson v. Kelehan, 226 Minn. 163, 168-69, 32 N.W.2d 286, 289 (1948).
In Enderson, the supreme court stated that
in effecting a reasonable use of . . . land for a legitimate purpose, a landowner, acting in good faith, may drain his land of surface waters and cast them as a burden upon the land of another . . . if the following conditions are met:
(a) There is a reasonable necessity for such drainage;
(b) If reasonable care be taken to avoid unnecessary injury to the land receiving the burden;
(c) If the utility or benefit accruing to the land drained reasonably outweighs the gravity of the harm resulting to the land receiving the burden; and
(d) If, where practicable, it is accomplished by reasonably improving and aiding the normal and natural system of drainage according to its reasonable carrying capacity, or if, in the absence of a practicable natural drain, a reasonable and feasible artificial drainage system is adopted.
Enderson, 266 Minn. at 167-68, 32 N.W.2d at 289. These factors are also relevant when determining whether an obstruction constructed by a landowner on his land that inhibits the drainage of surface water from a neighbor's land is a reasonable use. See Quist, 410 N.W.2d at 6-7 (applying Enderson test in lawsuit alleging that obstruction constructed on respondent's property impeded drainage of water from appellant's property).
The record contains evidence that the field crossings obstructed the drainage of water from the Sheelys' property resulting in damage to their crops. Peterson testified that he did not seek any assistance in designing the field crossings. Douglass testified that most agricultural drainage tiles are designed to handle a two-year rainfall and that, for a two-year rainfall, the obstruction resulting from the southern field crossing would cause water to surcharge over the drainage tiles on the Sheely property. The evidence supports the district court's finding that by failing to design or evaluate the impacts of the field crossings, appellants failed to take reasonable care to avoid harm to respondents. Kenneth Peterson acknowledged that there was an alternative method to create ponds on his property, by digging a deeper channel, and that it was possible to access his fields with farm machinery from the township road. The ponds created by the field crossings stagnate during base and minimal flow conditions, resulting in chemical and physical changes in the properties of the water, and those changes contribute to changes in the water's dissolved oxygen concentration and to odors. The evidence supports the district court's findings that there was not a reasonable necessity for the obstruction of Roberts Creek on appellants' property and that there did not appear to be utility accruing to appellants' property as a result of the obstructions. The district court did not err in finding that the obstruction of Roberts Creek by appellants was not a reasonable use.
Appellants argue that the district court erred in determining that appellants were required to obtain a work permit to alter Roberts Creek on appellants' property because Roberts Creek is not designated as a public waterway until it leaves appellants' property. Minn. Stat. § 103G.245, subd. 1(2) (2002), states that "a person must have a public waters work permit to . . . change or diminish the course, current, or cross section of public waters, entirely or partially within the state, by any means, including filling, excavating, or placing of materials in or on the beds of public waters."
Statutory construction is a question of law, which this court reviews de novo. Sorenson v. St. Paul Ramsey Med. Ctr., 457 N.W.2d 188, 190 (Minn. 1990). When the words of a statute are clear and unambiguous, a court must give effect to the plain meaning of the language. Minn. Stat. § 645.16 (2002).
Roberts Creek is designated as a public waterway immediately to the west of appellants' property. Minn. Stat. § 103G.245, subd. 1(2), requires a "public waters work permit to . . . change or diminish the . . . course [or] current . . . of public waters . . . by any means." (Emphasis added.) Under the plain meaning of the statutory language, a permit is required for an obstruction that changes or diminishes the course or current of public waters. It is not necessary that the obstruction actually be located on public waters.
The field crossings on appellants' property changed or diminished the course or current of Roberts Creek downstream, where Roberts Creek is designated as a public waters. Because the change or diminishment occurred in public waters, the district court properly enjoined appellants form obstructing the channel of Roberts Creek without first obtaining a public waters work permit under Minn. Stat. § 103G.245, subd. 1(2).
Appellants argue that the district court erred in granting respondents relief under the MERA.
"Pollution, impairment or destruction" is any conduct by any person which violates, or is likely to violate, any environmental quality standard, limitation, rule, order, license, stipulation agreement, or permit of the state or any instrumentality, agency, or political subdivision thereof which was issued prior to the date the alleged violation occurred or is likely to occur or any conduct which materially adversely affects or is likely to materially adversely affect the environment; provided that "pollution, impairment or destruction" shall not include conduct which violates, or is likely to violate, any such standard, limitation, rules, order, license, stipulation agreement or permit solely because of the introduction of an odor into the air.
Minn. Stat. § 116B.02, subd. 5 (2002); see also Minn. Stat. § 116B.01 (2002) (purpose of MERA).
By violating Minn. Stat. § 103G.245, subd. 1(2), appellants violated an environmental quality standard. The district court, therefore, properly concluded that appellants violated Minn. Stat. § 116B.02, subd. 5.
Based on our disposition of this case, we do not reach the issue of whether appellants violated Minn. Stat. § 115.061 (2002).

Antinous, the Bithynian youth whom Hadrian loved, died in Egypt. Drowned in the Nile. He was turned into a god on Hadrian's orders. Statues were set up across the Empire and the town where he passed was renamed Antinoopolis. This suggests that he became the chief god of the town (or at least this was Hadrian's intention).
The small exhibition at the Ashmolean in Oxford presents depictions of the young man from the ancient and modern world.
Objects have been found across the Roman world, most notably in Rome, Greece and Bithynia. These consists of coins, gems and statues and busts.
Antinous was an icon- literally images of him as an apotheised god acted as a item of veneration, and he has become a gay icon.
As a god he was associated with various gods, possibly even with Osiris. A statue of him with an Egyptian headdress has been interpreted as Antinous Osiris. Such identifications are far to simplistic.
Osiris was portrayed in Egyptian headdress but also as a mummy (a mummoid) and as a vase (symbolising the holy waters of Nile). These later types of Osiris statue have been called Osiris Canopus. One was even found in Hadrian's villa in Trivoli. Osiris is often portrayed as the spouse of Isis, the mighty Egyptian goddess.
Antinous was also identified with Dionysos. The Townley Antinous shows the god with a wreath of ivy leaves and berry clusters. The colossal Antinous from Praeneste show him with a similar wreath on his head, but also a pinecone. This statue was "restored" in modern times. The flowing clothes would formally have been made from another material.
An intriguing bust of Antinous is dedicated to the Hero Antinous. A Hero is not quite a god, although worthy of veneration.
His ascent continued in the eighteenth century when craftsmen continued to depict Antinous. A gorgeous carnelian gem was cut by Edward Burch.
Most notably Yourcenar depicted a heartbroken Hadrian in her novel Memoirs of Hadrian. This image of the emperor has retained a certain popularity, even though the emperor was quite a high handed rule as his treatment to his Jewish subjects shows.
A fine exhibition that explores big themes of politics, religion, sexuality, culture, art history and reception in a small setting.

Athletes and sexual assaults
Okay, this is from 2003/4, but I think it's quite interesting. Also, I'm not sure if there's ever been research that has looked at the accusations of sexual misconduct against athletes. I found this on USA Today.
In sexual assault cases, athletes usually walk
USA TODAY research of 168 sexual assault allegations against athletes in the past dozen years suggests sports figures fare better at trial than defendants from the general population. Of those 168 allegations, involving 164 athletes, only 22 saw their cases go to trial, and only six cases resulted in convictions. In another 46 cases, a plea agreement was reached. Combined with the six athletes convicted at trial and one who pleaded guilty as charged, that gives the athletes a 32% total conviction rate in the resolved cases. That means more than two-thirds were never charged, saw the charges dropped or were acquitted.
Here's their list of cases.
Robbie Crockett Iowa football He was accused of having sex with a 13-year-old girl in 1998 and was charged with third-degree criminal sexual conduct. Crockett pleaded guilty to one count of fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct and was sentenced to 90 days in prison and three years of probation. He was also ordered to pay fines and court costs of more than $2,700 and to pay for the victim's counseling.
A pedophile gets 90 days in prison? Read some of the others – reduced sentences, probation only… It's quite enlightening.

Who am I to judge?
That's what Judge Andrew Tarantino needs to be asking himself.
Thanks to Mark Fass for reporting on this judge's incompetence and the dilemma of judges' virtual impunity. His email is below – please consider writing to thank him.
Judge transferred over alleged actions in visitation case
Mark Fass
A Suffolk County judge who was the subject of a searing complaint by a children's advocacy group has been transferred from Family Court to the County Court's civil term.
A court source called the immediate transfer "unprecedented" and an indication of the how seriously the allegations are being taken by the Office of Court Administration.
According to the complaint, Judge Andrew G. Tarantino Jr. granted a father who had been convicted of possessing child pornography and third-degree rape of a minor overnight visitation of his three children, supervised by his own parents.
Read the complaint and Judge Tarantino'e earlier ruling.
During the visitation hearing in January, Judge Tarantino joked about child pornography, misstated the facts of the case, refused to hear expert testimony regarding sexual-abuse recidivism and maintained an "inappropriate" relationship with the father's attorney, according to the complaint.
The complaint was filed Tuesday with the New York State Commission on Judicial Conduct by Parents for Megan's Law and the Crime Victims Center, a Long Island advocacy group. It was also forwarded to the OCA, which is independent from the commission
The OCA transferred the judge out of Family Court on Monday, based on the allegations underlying the complaint.
A spokesman for the OCA said he could not discuss the grounds for transferring judges and that the court system could take no further remedial action.
"This is a matter for the Commission on Judicial Conduct," spokesman David Bookstaver said. "The courts by statute cannot discipline or punish judges."
Robert Tembeckjian, the conduct commission's chief administrator, said he could not comment unless and until a sanction is issued or a judge waives confidentiality.
Judge Tarantino, 57, declined to comment.
The complaint against the judge alleges numerous instances of bias and inappropriate comments during a child custody proceeding earlier this year. The judge held a four-day hearing in January and issued an eight-page decision in April.
The father, Dennis DeMille, a former middle-school teacher, is a registered Level II sex offender. He pleaded guilty to possessing pornographic photographs of 12- to 16-year-old girls, and sexually victimizing a minor.
The children's mother, who is not named in court records, had contacted the Parents for Megan's Law in November 2009 to complain about the judge's behavior.
The group in its complaint said "Judge Tarantino has exhibited a bias and a blatant disregard for the facts."
The complaint cited such examples as the judge's joke that, to get around a law that prohibits replicating child pornography for court records, a court officer could "do little stick pictures" duplicating the images underlying the father's child-pornography conviction.
"You can do an artist's rendition," the judge joked.
Judge Tarantino asked to view the photos to determine whether they were "pieces of art or pornography," notwithstanding the father's conviction. The judge then never ruled on the issue, the complaint said.
It describes the judge joking about the treatment methods for sexual addiction, asking whether "a little electronic device" might be placed in a patient's keyboard.
The judge's decision to allow Mr. DeMille supervised overnight visits quoted his therapist as saying "the father is not a predator," when the therapist had declined to rule out that possibility, the complaint alleged.
The OCA rarely moves so quickly to transfer a judge, the only remedial power it holds. After Brooklyn Family Court Judge Robin Sheares jailed a mother for refusing to facilitate visits between her son and his father, a thrice-convicted rapist, OCA took three weeks to transfer her to Civil Court.
Judge Tarantino forwarded through a court spokesman a corrected copy of his order in the underlying case.
"This case presents with the issue of when and if a sex offender should be able to have a normal relationship with his children?" the judge wrote in Matter of D.D . III, 13176-07. "[T]he children are entitled to grow with and have as normal relationship with their Father as is possible under these circumstances. To consider sinister every activity in which there may be contact may approach paranoia in some circumstances. This court cannot render a decision based upon paranoia."
Judge Tarantino was elected to Family Court in 2006 and took the bench in 2007. A 1991 graduate of City University of New York School of Law and a registered Democrat, he worked as a solo practitioner speciaizing in family law from 1991 to 2000 and as a partner at Long Island's Sarisohn Law Partners from 2000 to 2004. He was an assistant county attorney assigned to Suffolk Family Court from 2004 through 2006.

Is it worse to be a racist or a rapist?
Ooh, ooh, I know this one! A racist! Right?
Hat's off to Keli Goff for writing Is it worse to be a racist or a rapist? What Gibson, Brown and Polanski teach us. I was heartsickened to find out Switzerland was letting Polanski go. Ply a 13-year-old with alcohol and drugs, rape her, serve a few days in jail and live the rest of your life as an "icon." The media and Hollywood may worship Polanski, but the mere mention of his name turns my stomache. Like Goff, I think he's poo – a disgusting old dirt bag that (well, like the majority of perps who commit violence against women) got off too easy.
The idea that men can commit violence against women and have impunity is not new – but it's not well-known. One and a half to 3 million women are killed each year by men in this world. Impunity is the #1 reason it continues unabated. Sexual violence during war, rape, domestic violence, honor killings, acid attacks, female genital mutilation, sexual slavery and femicide exist in this world – it receives little media attention – it receives little commitment by governments to take action – it receives little fanfare by societies that deem it inevitable for women and girls to be subjected to violence and abuse by men.
In the Congo, where atrocity rapes are occuring, I cringe when I realize that there is more stigma to being a rape victim than a rapist.
In Guatemala, to be initiated into a gang, one must rape and kill a female. Since these youth are new to killing – you can imagine their inexperienced hands wielding a knife – it would be considered more humane to kill bulls in Spain than it would to describe how these young men kill young girls.
In South Africa, 28% of men have admitted to raping a woman (Yet The Daily Show thought the "news" of finding a racist was more interesting and humorous to finding a rapist – I'm sure they have no idea as to what's happening to women – why would they afterall? The news is not reporting this).
In Florida recently, a man killed his ex-wife and targeted 6 women (not men), killing 3 of them. This man shot at 7 women in total. You haven't heard this story? I'm not surprised.
Here's some excerpts from Goff's post:
In Gibson's case it appears that everyone was so focused on not approving of his so-called "golddigging" girlfriend (whom Gibson accused of extortion) that whether or not he knocked her teeth loose became secondary to whether or not she was trying to possibly turn his knocking her teeth loose to her financial advantage. But the most telling clue regarding where our priorities lie, is that the majority of headlines chronicling Gibson's downfall in recent weeks, from major publications to small blogs, highlight Gibson's alleged use of the N-word on tape, not the fact that he appears to be terrorizing a woman with an infant on tape. It's as though everyone universally had it with Gibson only after tapes initially created to support her allegations of abuse happened to include his use of the N-word.
The Civil Rights movement has helped change society's mindset about race relations and language – it's far from perfect, but we have come a long way (baby). We have NOT come a long way in terms of the Violence Against Women movment. We still witness countless injuries and deaths, impunity that protects perps, propaganda about false allegations that severely threatens justice, defenses that protect males and their careers, and apathy from leaders and the public.
So why is it that much of Hollywood is ready to welcome admitted statutory rapist Roman Polanski back with open arms, and much of black Hollywood is arguing that people like myself need to get over it already regarding Chris Brown's assault on Rhianna? (Note to Polanski and Brown: It might help some of us who think you're both poo to "get over it" if you were to display an ounce of real remorse over what you did, as opposed to remorse for the inconvenience it has presented to your careers. If you'd like to see how "remorseful" Polanski really is (or rather isn't) for violating a child, listen to him in his own words in one of his last TV interviews on the matter.)
We all know that Gibson, Brown and Polanski are not the first notable public figures to be accused of abusing a woman, and will not be the last. Besides the countless professional athletes who have been accused of assault, in recent years various elected officials have been accused of everything from choking a woman, to slashing a girlfriend's face (Click here to view a tally of members of Congress accused of spousal abuse as recently as a few years ago.)
But I guess the silver lining for abusers everywhere is that it looks like unless you use a racial slur while committing abuse you might be okay, career wise.
Yeah, Power to the Perps as I say.
And if you really need another piece of evidence to see how we protect perps and men, in particular, look at the video attached to this article: Dad tosses tot into traffic: Cops An off-duty police officer witnessed the father throwing his 18-month-old infant into traffic. The mother? She sticks up for the dad. Because men can do no wrong? (Oh, wait, that's contrary to gender stereotypes) Because it would harm his career? (No, that's contrary to facts). Hmmm. Hell, I don't know why does she stick up for him? Why would anyone want to offer him impunity?

Custody catastrophes
Remember the case involving 9-month-old baby Wyatt? His mother Katie Tagle was denied a restraining order 3 times. The 3rd judge, Judge Lemkau, called Katie a liar and handed the infant over to the ex-husband. Ten days later, both were found dead. Here's an article by Cara Tabachnick about judges' virtual impunity:
Disciplining the judge
Advocates contend that many family court judges are not properly trained or ignore abuse guidelines. And such judges tend to view protective mothers as not trustworthy and overwrought, making biased decisions on which they have no true recourse, according to Darby Mangen , chapter president of the San Bernardino National Organization of Women (NOW). "No matter how exiguous the case there is no help for the victim," added Mangen, who was active in the campaign to remove Judge Lemkau.
Furthermore, since so much of the decision making in custody cases relies on the judge's discretion, litigants are fearful of bringing any motions against the judge.
"Family judges have so much power over cases that you can not afford to challenge the judge," says Tony Tanke, a former senior judicial staff attorney for the Chief Justice of the California Supreme Court, who advises on family court cases pro-bono.
Moreover, the often tight relationships between local bar associations and judges make it difficult to find an attorney who wants to take on a complaint against a powerful judge, according to Tanke. Indeed, in the Lemkau v. Hoskings election, Lemkau received endorsements from the local Family Law Bar association and other area attorneys, who supported his decision in baby Wyatt's case
The result: parties who feel victimized by a judge's biased decision are left with nowhere to turn.
Read the rest of Cara's article to find out about the appeals process and court watch programs. We need the media to highlight these cases, as well, in order to raise awareness and reform the courts.

We had to stay in a guest house for 4 months while they fixed it up. No computer there. We're back now, thank goodness. Home sweet home.
Got lots of work cut out for us cleaning wise (contents of home which are all in boxes and covered in soot).
As for our welfare, we're fine. It was a big scare as you can imagine. Hubby was a little hurt, but it was superficial compared to what could have happened.
What happened you ask? We don't know. Everybody seems to agree it was an electrical short at one of the wall plugs. We were home when it happened, so when we saw the smoke we tried to put out the fire with wet blankets. It spread unbelievably quickly, so we called the fire department and they took care of the rest.
So here I am, back again and drawing.
I also got a Wacom Intuos Pro I literally jumped up and down when it arrived. When Inktober 2018 is done you can be sure I'll be uploading some digital stuff.
Great art is not necessarily perfect art.
Thanks so much I'll try to keep it coming.
No worries. Fell free to check out my gallery whenever.
Thanks, I'm very flattered I do sometimes do it professionally, but not as much as I'd like. Maybe in the future Really appreciate your comment.
i sent an angel to watch over you last night but it came back. I asked "why?" The angel said "angels don't watch over angels." Twenty angels are IN your world. Ten of them are sleeping, nine are playing, one is reading this message. Send this to ten friends including me. I guess if I don't get it back I'm not one of them. As soon as you get five replies, someone you love will quietly surprise you. Please read, not joking. God has seen you struggling with something. God says its over. A blessing is coming your way. If you believe in God send this message on. Please don't ignore it. You are being tested. God is going to fix two things BIG tonight in your favor. DROP Everything and pass it on. Tomorrow will be the best day of your life. Don't break this chain. Send to 14 friends in 10 minutes. It's not that hard.


Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". So Reiki is actually "spiritually guided life force energy." Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing. Many have reported miraculous results.
Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery. I often use Reiki in conjunction with Acupuncture & Bodywork to enhance their effectiveness.
I enjoy teaching Reiki because it is empowering to be able to treat yourself and your loved ones--and it is available to you whenever you need it. It is an amazingly simple technique to learn, the ability to use Reiki is not taught in the usual sense, but is transferred to the student during a Reiki class. This ability is passed on during an "attunement" given by a Reiki master and allows the student to tap into an unlimited supply of "life force energy" to improve one's health and enhance the quality of life.
While Reiki is not a religion, it is still important to live and act in a way that promotes harmony with others. Dr. Mikao Usui the founder of the Reiki system of natural healing, recommended that one practice certain simple ethical ideals to promote peace and harmony, which are nearly universal across all cultures.
I teach Reiki classes several times a year. Please contact me at daohealing@gmail.com for more information.

Hong Kong: Commencement of Phase 2 of New Inspection Regime
10 Oct 2022 2 minute read
New Inspection Regime
Phase 2 of the new inspection regime of the register of the Companies Registry ("Register") will come into effect from 24 October 2022, allowing Hong Kong companies to, among others, limit disclosure to the public certain personal information of their directors and secretaries ("New Inspection Regime").
We refer to our previous alert which sets out the background and proposed timetable for implementation of all three phases of the New Inspection Regime.
Key changes in Phase 2
Under Phase 2 of the New Inspection Regime, the usual residential address and full identification number (IDN) of directors and company secretaries ("Protected Information") will be replaced with the correspondence address (CA) and partial IDNs. Protected Information contained in documents filed for registration on or after 24 October 2022 will not be available for public inspection although Specified Persons (as defined below) may apply to access the Protected Information.
What does this mean for companies?
From 24 October 2022, new specified forms will be required to report the CA and partial IDNs of directors, company secretaries and other individuals. A PI-sheet is added to each relevant form for reporting Protected Information of each of those individuals which will not be provided for public inspection. As from 24 October 2022, the Companies Registry will only accept the revised specified forms for registration.
If a director is using a CA that is different from the company's registered offices address (or the principal place of business in Hong Kong if the company is a registered non-Hong Kong company), a separate form to report the director's CA will need to be filed with the Registry within 15 days (or within one month for a registered non-Hong Kong company) after the commencement of Phase 2.
Companies who have not already done so in Phase 1, should now ensure that the CA of directors and secretaries is included in their own registers.
How can Protected Information be accessed after Phase 2 commences?
Only Specified Persons can apply for disclosure of Protected Information on the Register to facilitate the conduct of certain functions in relation to statutory procedures, law enforcement and customer due diligence of financial and business transactions. "Specified Persons" generally include:
Data subject or a person authorized by the data subject, i.e., the director or secretary in question
A member of the company
Designated non-financial businesses and professions regulated under the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing Ordinance (Cap 615)
Specified Persons are required to make a statement to confirm the purpose of obtaining the Protected Information which will only be used for that specific purpose.
As a Specified Person, our firm are happy to assist clients to obtain a Protected Information Report on selected data subjects whenever needed.
For further information and to discuss what this development might mean for you and steps to be taken, please get in touch with our lawyers set out under the "Contact Information" or your usual Baker McKenzie contact. We are happy to advise on the actions to be taken in light of this new regime.

Capitol Press Conference on Drug Re-Pack Legislation
Today, AIF hosted a press conference with Senator Alan Hays (R-Umatilla) and Representative Matt Hudson (R-Naples) to discuss important legislation that will correct spiraling workers' compensation costs associated with repackaged drugs. AIF was present with several legislative members, business leaders and ordinary Floridians who are concerned with the skyrocketing costs associated with the current system.
Senate Bill 668 and House Bill 511 will immediately save Florida employers over $60 million in workers' compensation premiums, making this issue a top priority of AIF and its members for the 2012 Legislative Session. AIF is happy to join with partners in the business community to promote this very important issue for Florida's employers.
Furthermore, AIF salutes Sen. Hays and Rep. Hudson for their leadership and commitment to making Florida's workers' compensation environment one of the strongest in the country.

Cost of test to join NMC register for overseas applicants to be cut
Proposed additional route for people to return to work after a career break
The cost of the professional test of competence that overseas nurses, midwives and nursing associates must take to work in the UK will reduce by more than 20 percent, the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) has announced.
The change, agreed with the organisations who provide the test, will take effect on 1 April 2019 – reducing the cost of the computer-based test from £130 to £90; the full cost of the practical examination from £992 to £794 and the resit cost of the practical examination from £496 to £397.
At a time when many of the ambitions for health and social care developments rely on nurses, midwives and nursing associates in order to be a success, this is one of a number of new proposed measures from the NMC to make it as straightforward and cost effective as possible for people with the right skills to join its register.
Additional new proposals would also see those wanting to re-join the register following a career break being able to choose a test of competence to demonstrate that their skills and knowledge are up to date, rather than undertake a course, which can take between three and 12 months to complete.
Furthermore, where people do choose a return to practice course, the NMC will no longer state the minimum length of the course. Educators will now be able to consider the skills and experience of the applicants and design the courses accordingly, increasing flexibility.
The NMC Council will consider the return to practice proposals at its meeting on Wednesday 27 March.
Andrea Sutcliffe, Chief Executive and Registrar at the NMC, said:
"As today's report from the Health Foundation, King's Fund and Nuffield Trust lays bare; these are challenging times for health and social care with high vacancy and turnover rates – including over 40,000 current vacant nursing posts in the NHS in England alone – and around 5,000 nursing vacancies in social care.
We know this has a direct and too often detrimental impact on the environment that nurses, midwives and nursing associates work in and the quality and experience of care people receive.
By proposing a new way for even more people to get back to work after a break, and reducing the cost of the overseas test, we can enhance the numbers of professionals with the right skills coming onto our register. These are people we know are committed to providing the best and safest care possible.
I hope both of these changes show that the NMC is playing its part in positively addressing the nursing and midwifery shortages that exist in health services, adult social care services and within local communities across the UK."
Danny Mortimer, Chief Executive of NHS Employers, said:
"We know NHS organisations will need to continue to recruit more nurses from outside the UK as well as increase the UK supply. The openness of the NMC during the last 18 months to deliver changes to their processes has been welcomed by employers.
The planned reductions in test fees and the proposed changes to how nurses and midwives can re-enter the register after a break from practice will be welcome news to our teams and patients. Including suitable nurses and midwives on the register as quickly as possible whilst upholding the necessary standards is critical in a competitive global market for nurses.
Process improvement is continuous and NHS Employers looks forward to working closely with the NMC on the different reviews underway."
As part of its drive for consistency and quality assurance, the NMC will also be introducing a new test of competence assurance panel. A group of experienced nurses, midwives and other health and care professionals, will use their broad range of expertise to ensure consistency of tests across different test centres.
These changes are part of an ongoing review to improve the experience of those wanting to join the NMC's register. They will help to ensure that applicants with the right skills and knowledge can join the UK workforce as quickly as possible while ensuring high standards of care.
1. Read further information about the NMC's proposed changes relating to return to practice to help boost the nursing and midwifery workforce.
2. There are around 690,000 nurses and midwives, and nursing associates for England only, registered with the NMC to work in the UK. Around 10% of those are from overseas (outside the EU).
3. Nurses, midwives and nursing associates trained outside the EU currently take a two part test of competence. This includes a computer-based test (CBT) and practical examination known as the Objective Structure Clinical Examination (OSCE)
4. The changes to the test of competence are part of an ongoing review to improve the experience of those applying to join the register from overseas.
• Last year the NMC made changes that enabled nurses and midwives from outside the EU to apply to work in the UK immediately after qualifying, rather than a 12 month waiting period. Read more about the changes.
• Last year the NMC also made changes to the requirements for nurses and midwives from outside the EU taking the Internal English Language Test System (IELTS) and improved the supporting information available to applicants. Read more about the changes to requirements.
