Our Pacific Northwest neighborhood is not what you would call crowded as far as boat traffic goes, which is one reason we like boating here. As long as all is well, we don't mind being by ourselves as we travel along at 7 knots.
On the other hand, it's reassuring to know that if a problem or real emergency crops up, there are other boaters out there who can help. Of course, we still take the usual precautions, like staying on top of weather and maintenance issues, but knowing there are others who can come to the rescue does make our cruising less stressful and more enjoyable.
My wife, Linda, and I were on a very enjoyable cruise a couple summers ago aboard our single-engine Krogen 42 when we realized just how benevolent the cruising community is. We were on an all-day trip from Campbell River to Nanaimo, both on Vancouver Island, B.C. Early that morning, we had headed south from Discovery Marina and sat in the Strait of Georgia's northbound ebb for a long time. As we passed Mitlenatch Island, the current subsided as usual. Looking at Vancouver Island, you can imagine the water flooding in around the north end through Queen Charlotte Sound and up from the south by way of the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The currents meet in the area of Mitlenatch, and the result is little or no current in that part of the strait.
There we were, enjoying the sunshine and flat water, with no complaints.
Then, suddenly, a thumping sound-actually, more like a big thumping feeling-came from the stern. Did my coffee cup bounce across the chart table? I don't remember. What I do remember is pulling the engine out of gear and going astern to look at the prop. I took off my shirt, put on a mask and snorkel, and hung over the swim step. I was worried, and the water was very cold.
It appeared the prop was wrapped with yellow rope or twine. But I couldn't hold my breath long enough to see much at all, let alone get hold of the mess.
Would the prop turn in reverse and unwind the knot? I tried that, but the engine quit as soon as I went into gear.
The prop wouldn't turn. We weren't going anywhere.
It was about 10 o'clock in the morning, and we were in more than 200 feet of water and 5 miles from shore. The wind was calm, but the afternoon forecast called for winds to pick up to 20-33 knots.
This was not an emergency. We just needed help clearing our prop. If we couldn't do that, we would need a tow back to Campbell River.
I explained all of this to Comox Coast Guard Radio. There was a coast guard vessel in the vicinity, and there was some conversation on another frequency. The crew of the coast guard boat was ready to come to our aid, but the dispatcher decided that a marine-assistance advisory would be issued first; a commercial boat might be willing to help us.
We broadcast our position, boat description, and problem on Channel 16 and immediately received several replies. A southbound Nordic Tug offered to tow us to Comox. The skipper came within hailing distance, and we talked. The Nordic Tug was smaller than our boat, and it would have been a pretty slow trip. We were appreciative that the skipper was willing to add several hours to his trip that day just to help us, but what we really needed was a diver to untangle the mess on our propeller. I sincerely thanked him, and he continued on his way.
en asked the coast guard for telephone numbers of commercial tow and dive services in Campbell River. One operator said he could come to our rescue but not until 4 p.m. The other company I called didn't answer the phone. It is interesting to note that most pleasure-boat traffic on Georgia Strait travels along the British Columbia mainland and up Malaspina Strait. On that side of the straits, there are more interesting places to visit and tuck into in rough weather. The lack of small craft where we were may have accounted for the lack of response from commercial vessels.
Not long after the Nordic Tug left, we got a call from Sea Bear, a Canadian sailboat that was some 30 minutes from us. The crew were moving some buoys that their yacht club was to use in a race, and the first mate had her scuba tanks with her. The skipper said they would come over as soon as they had gotten the last buoy in place. What a bit of good fortune.
In the meantime, Capella, a 65-foot pleasure boat, came alongside after hearing the marine-assistance broadcast about us. The skipper of this unusual boat, a big, one-engine, trawler-style yacht-not a workboat conversion-also offered us help in the form of a tow back to Campbell River. I told him about the Canadian sailboat that would be coming to help and asked if he would stand by while we got a look at the situation under our stern. He agreed to stay, just as Sea Bear came into view.
Sea Bear's crew consisted of a family from Pacific Beach on Vancouver Island: a husband and wife and their two young daughters. The wife had her wet suit on as they pulled up to us. As soon as we rafted to them, she was under our boat with a snorkel. After a few minutes, she surfaced and said she needed her scuba tanks-there was a real mess of polypropylene line on our prop.
She suited up with her tanks, grabbed a hacksaw, and stayed underwater for more than 20 minutes, cutting a rat's nest of 3-inch-diameter yellow line off our shaft and prop. The line had probably been part of a commercial towing bridle; there was about 6 feet of line still intact and enough frayed line to fill a 33-gallon household garbage can.
We hoped that was the end of our dilemma. I started the engine and eased into forward. The prop turned, and our boat moved. Success!
Profoundly grateful, we thanked the Sea Bear crew several times and offered to treat them to a weekend's moorage at Roche Harbor or another San Juan Islands destination, but they refused. They said they were glad to help and that "the law of the sea" required them to do so.
After we waved goodbye to some great sailors, I ran up to cruise speed and felt no vibrations. All was well, and we were ready to pick up our voyage where we had left off. We thanked Capella for standing by and continued south. What nice people you meet up with while floating around in a boat.
Our mechanical problem had been corrected, but we had been delayed about three hours, and now the winds were picking up. Heading into the wind and waves did not bother a boat like ours, but it did bother some of the crew-including Victor, the ship's mascot, a springer spaniel mix that loves the water as long as the water holds still. We usually steer clear of rough weather if we can.
Rather than going all the way to Nanaimo, we ducked into Schooner Cove Marina, just above Nanoose Harbour. It was a windy approach, but we got help from some friendly folks on the dock. Several of those who helped us into the slip saw the name of our boat and asked if we were the people who had been disabled off Comox. They had heard about us on Channel 16, and we were famous. More importantly, we were safe in port with no damage, and we'd had a great experience with cruisers who had gone out of their way to help.
Three years later, we met some new neighbors at a Christmas party. We got to talking and learned that they had just sold their boat, a 65-foot single-engine wood boat. She was not a fishboat or a tug conversion, but a yacht built by Vic Frank here in Seattle. I asked if they had ever had an occasion to stand by in Georgia Strait while another boat unwound a towboat line from a prop.
Yes, they had done that. They were the crew of Capella. Talk about a small world.


Class structure within the criminal justice system helps determine the types of crimes individuals will commit.
Explain why white-collar crime is less likely to be tracked in the U.S.
In Marxist theory, the class structure of the capitalist mode of production is characterized by the conflict between two main classes.
Bourgeoisie are the capitalists who own the means of production, while the much larger proletariat who must sell their own labor power.
White-collar crime is a financially motivated, nonviolent crime committed for illegal monetary gain.
Criminal justice is the system of practices and institutions of governments directed at upholding social control, deterring, and mitigating crime or sanctioning those who violate laws with criminal penalties and rehabilitation efforts.
There are four jurisdictions for punishment: retribution, deterrence, rehabilitation, and societal protection.
Marxist Theory: An economic and sociopolitical worldview and method of socioeconomic inquiry centered upon a materialist interpretation of history, a dialectical view of social change, and an analysis–critique of the development of capitalism.
white-collar crime: A non-violent crime, generally for personal gain and often involving money.
Of the classical founders of social science, conflict theory is most commonly associated with Karl Marx. Based on a dialectical materialist account of history, Marxism posited that capitalism, like previous socioeconomic systems, would inevitably produce internal tensions leading to its own destruction. Marx ushered in radical change, advocating proletarian revolution and freedom from the ruling classes. In Marxist theory, the class structure of the capitalist mode of production is characterized by the conflict between two main classes: the bourgeoisie, the capitalists who own the means of production, and the much larger proletariat who must sell their own labor power.
Clifford Shaw and Henry D. McKay theorized that social disorganization was a root cause of deviancy and crime, especially for minority youth. They discussed the fact that inner city kids tended to be more involved in a criminal lifestyle than kids who lived in the suburbs. Being able to afford to live in better parts of the city (and thus having wealth) afforded certain kids better opportunities in terms of lifestyle and education, leading to less crime and criminal involvement.
White-collar crime is a financially motivated, nonviolent crime committed for illegal monetary gain. Within the field of criminology, white-collar crime initially was defined by sociologist Edwin Sutherland in 1939 as "a crime committed by a person of respectability and high social status in the course of his occupation. " A clear example of how deviance reflects power imbalances is in the reporting and tracking of crimes. Indeed, white-collar crimes are typically committed by individuals in higher social classes. That white-collar crimes are less likely to be tracked, less likely to be reported, less likely to be prosecuted, and are more likely to be committed by people in higher social classes suggests that the way crimes are punished in the United States tends to favor the affluent while punitively punishing the less affluent. Additionally, men benefit more from white-collar crime than do women, as they are more likely to attempt these crimes when they are in more powerful positions, allowing them to reap greater rewards.
Within the criminal justice system, there are three basic elements that constitute it: the police, the courts, and punishment. The police maintain public order by enforcing the law. Police use personal discretion in deciding whether and how to handle a situation. Research suggests that police are more likely to make an arrest if the offense is serious, if bystanders are present, or if the suspect is of a visible minority. Courts rely on an adversarial process in which attorneys-one representing the defendant and one representing the crown-present their cases in the presence of a judge who monitors legal procedures. In practice, courts resolve most cases through a plea bargain. Though efficient, this method puts less-powerful people at a disadvantage. There are four jurisdictions for punishment: retribution, deterrence, rehabilitation, and societal protection. Community-bases corrections include probation and parole. These programs lower the cost of supervising people convicted of crimes and reduce prison overcrowding but have not been shown to reduce recidivism.
Stone as a Weapon of the Proletariat: In Marxist theory, the class structure of the capitalist mode of production is characterized by the conflict between two main classes: the bourgeoisie, the capitalists who own the means of production, and the much larger proletariat who must sell their own labor power.

The energy sector in Israel has witnessed steady growth over the past few decades. According to official figures, total electric power production in the Israeli market has increased from approximately 53.5 billion kWh in 2009 to 73 billion kWh in 2018, an incremental increase of 32%, compared to a 19% increase in population and a 61% increase in production of goods over that time period.
Total electric power production in the market has increased steadily over the years, apart from 2013, in which total electric power production in the market fell by 3.2%.
In the upcoming decade, electric power consumption is expected to continue rising, due to natural population and economic growth as well as national infrastructure initiatives such as electrification of railway lines and growth in the electric vehicle sector. There are various forecasts for the increase in electric power consumption – according to the Bank of Israel, the annual rate of increase in electricity demand is expected to range between 2.7% and 3%.
In 2018, electric power production in the Israeli market came from the following sources: approximately 29.3% from coal; 33.2% from natural gas; 4.4% from liquid natural gas (LNG); 0.6% from diesel; and 0.1% from fuel oil. The Israel Electric Corporation (IEC), a government company, produced a total of 47.5 billion kWh of electricity, about 67.6% of the total electricity production in the market in 2018. Production by independent power producers (IPPs) using natural gas (private power stations) was approximately 29.3%, and electricity production from renewable energy sources was 2.9% of the total in 2018.
Statements by Israel's Ministry of Energy, outlined below, indicate that by 2030 the distribution of fossil fuel use in the Israeli market is expected to be drastically different from the distribution documented in 2010, with a significant increase in natural gas consumption at the expense of other energy sources. In 2013, natural gas accounted for only 26% of total energy sources in the market, in reference to the total consumption of 23,700 tons of oil equivalent (TOE). The national Gas Authority estimates that by 2030 total energy consumption in the economy will reach 34,900 TOE, and projects that natural gas will make up 47% of all energy sources in the market. This change will stem primarily from the expected use of natural gas sources discovered in recent years in Israel's exclusive economic zone (EEZ). A detailed description of these reservoirs follows.
In the last decade, several reservoirs of natural gas have been found in Israel's EEZ, in the Mediterranean Sea, west of the country's coastline. Some of the reservoirs are small, containing minimal quantities that are not economically significant, but some are giant reservoirs with commercial potential and are already in use by IEC and various industrial operations.
The "Tamar" reservoir is a natural gas field that lies in the Mediterranean Sea about 90 kilometres west of Haifa and at a depth of about 1,700 metres below the sea surface. Although it is not the first gas field with economic potential to be discovered in Israel, as of this article. "Tamar" is the only active natural gas reservoir, producing 10 billion cubic metres (BCM) of natural gas per year. The total quantity of gas that can be extracted from the reservoir has been estimated at 307 BCM.
The "Leviathan" reservoir is a natural gas field in the Mediterranean Sea, about 130 kilometres west of Haifa (and to the west of the "Tamar" reservoir) and at a depth of about 1,500 metres below the sea's surface. The reservoir was discovered in late 2010, and is one of the largest discoveries in the world of natural gas in deep waters. Experts estimate its volume at 621 BCM of natural gas, in addition to 40 million barrels of natural gas condensate, making the "Leviathan" highly promising for Israel's energy market and as an engine of significant economic growth for the country and its citizens.
Two smaller gas reservoirs have also been discovered, known as "Karish and Tanin" (Shark and Alligator), located in the northern region of Israel's EEZ. The "Tanin" reservoir was discovered in 2011 to the northeast of the "Leviathan" reservoir, and the volume of natural gas it contains is considered the third in size to be discovered on Israeli territory. The "Karish" reservoir was discovered in 2013 to the northeast of the "Tamar" reservoir and is believed to be the fourth-largest in the country's territory. In total, it is estimated that the "Karish" and "Tanin" reservoirs contain between 60 and 70 BCM of natural gas, and their development, drilling, and transport costs are expected to be lower than the corresponding costs for the "Tamar" and "Leviathan" reservoirs. This is due in part to their size and in part to their relatively short distance to other reservoirs, which would allow the "Karish" and "Tanin" reservoirs to make use of the infrastructures in place for "Tamar" and "Leviathan".
Over the past year, alongside the supply of natural gas to the Israeli energy market from the "Tamar" reservoir, development work continues apace on the (permanent) production platform for the "Leviathan" field, which will be located in Israel's territorial waters (approximately 10 kilometres from the coast). Construction of a floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) unit is also under way, for gas extraction from the "Karish and Tanin" reservoirs.
The total quantity of natural gas consumed in Israel has risen, as construction of a pipeline transmission system progresses. The pipeline's construction has been carried out by the government owned corporation "Israel Natural Gas Lines Ltd."(INGL) ever since that corporation's founding in 2003. The overall length of the system, as of today, is approximately 650 km.
INGL is currently working on several additional projects, in various stages of planning and installation, including installing additional sections and doubling existing lines. INGL is also continuously increasing the number of clients and hooking up additional consumers to the system.
On August 16, 2015, a significant governmental decision was made (re-adopted in a decision on May 22, 2016), entitled "A Draft Plan for Increasing the Quantity of Natural Gas Extracted from the 'Tamar' Natural Gas Field and Rapid Development of the 'Leviathan', 'Karish', 'Tanin' and other Natural Gas Fields" (the "Gas Draft Plan") which took effect on December, 17, 2015. The draft plan includes nine chapters detailing the government's intentions regarding management of the natural gas industry. It is intended to accelerate development of the gas reservoirs and promote their incorporation into the Israeli energy market. The Gas Draft Plan underwent judicial review by the Supreme Court sitting as the High Court of Justice, and the Israeli market began to implement the plan; since then, significant progress has been seen in the development of Israel's natural gas industry.
On July 26, 2018, an amendment to the Electric Power Sector Law went into effect, mandating and regulating reform of the electric power sector in Israel. The amendment to the law resulted from a government decision on reform of the electric power industry, in accordance with policy principles publicised by the Minister of Energy. Principles of the reform include steps to increase competition in the electric power industry and improve the efficiency of IEC (the governmental corporation for production, transport, and distribution of electricity), as described below:
Management of the electric power system – Management will be transferred from IEC to another government company (System Management Company Ltd.), with the goal of reducing existing conflicts of interest between the producers and the system manager.
Production section – IEC will gradually, over a five-year period, sell five sites for production of electric power using natural gas, amounting to a potential output of 4,500 megawatts (representing approximately one-third of the company's production output and a quarter of the overall production output of the market, as of December 2017), on-land sites for the construction of additional production sites (at Rutenberg and at Reading). This year, IEC sold the first power station in Alon, in the Galilee region, and began the process of issuing a tender to sell a second power station, in Ramat Hovav in the Negev region. IEC will not build additional power stations, except for future replacement of four coal-fired electricity production units at the "Orot Rabin" power station in the city of Hadera, with electricity production units powered by natural gas. A subsidiary will be created that will own the new combined-cycle power plants to be built at the "Orot Rabin" site.
The transmission section – This will remain entirely under IEC's control since it is a natural monopoly.
The distribution section – Because of the advantage of the existing size in the distribution section, this section will remain largely under IEC's control, except for existing licensed distributors, who will be permitted to operate their distribution territories, under the restriction that these distribution licences will not exceed 10% of the annual consumption in the market, accounting for natural growth of consumption in the distribution territories.
The supply section – This section will be opened up to competition. IEC will not compete in the supply section for ultra-high voltage, extra-high voltage, and high voltage, but instead will charge according to the rate determined by the Electric Power Authority. In the low-voltage supply section, IEC will be permitted to compete only if its market share in this sector is be less than 60%.
Implementation of the reform has begun and has been implemented this year in accordance with the plan, but the process is far from completion.
Natural gas for transportation
On January 16, 2017, The Natural Gas Commission (appointed by the Government subject to the Natural Gas Sector Law) decided to promote the use of natural gas in Israel as an alternative energy source for transportation. As part of that decision, the regulatory arrangement was set to determine the prices for filling stations that provide compressed natural gas (CNG), emphasising the importance of transmission of the gas to make it available for transportation purposes. This follows a governmental decision of January 13, 2013, which called for transitioning of the Israeli public transportation from petroleum to alternative energy sources by 2025. The decision called for reducing the proportion of petroleum as an energy source for Israeli transport by 30% in 2020 and 60% in 2025, relative to the projected consumption in these years, as long as the transition is economically viable.
The Ministry of Energy's official forecast for natural gas use in the transportation sector by different types of vehicles (buses, taxis, trucks, private vehicles etc.), is 1.3 BCM in 2030 and 4.7 BCM in 2040.
Encouraging renewable energy sources and reducing the use of coal as an energy resource
On April 2, 2017, a governmental decision determined conditions and criteria for authorising independent bodies to create national infrastructure plans for facilities that produce electric power, for submission to the National Infrastructure Committee (the committee was set up in 2002 in Israel with the objective to shorten the planning and approval phases for large and important infrastructure projects). According to the decision, authorisation will be granted to bodies which are interested in building electricity-generating facilities that use natural gas or renewable energy, or electricity storage facilities. Approval of these licensing applications will continue until plans have been approved for the generation of 25,000 megawatts in total, as stipulated, by 2040. Of these, 13,000 megawatts of electricity will be produced via renewable energy sources, including energy storage. This decision goes beyond plans that have already been approved as of the date of decision.
Moreover, on November 12, 2017, the Minister of Energy announced a decision on "Policy Principles regarding the Marginal Operation of Coal-Burning Production Units". According to this decision, electricity generation via natural gas shall be prioritised over coal, with the coal-burning units operating at the minimum levels needed to ensure a reliable, flexible supply of electricity to the Israeli market. The policy will be implemented after ceasing continuous operation of the four coal-burning electricity production units at the "Orot Rabin" power station. Implementation will be subject to the existence of natural gas surplus in the infrastructure linking the three natural gas reservoirs, each of which will have a separate infrastructure for connecting to the national natural gas pipeline system.
Furthermore, on January 2, 2018, the website of the Ministry for Environmental Protection publicised a joint decision by the Minister of Energy and the Minister of Environmental Protection, stating that the IEC would reduce its use of coal for electricity generation by 30% (compared to the base year, 2015), effective immediately. The decision stated that this reduction of coal use would be steeper than the 2017 reduction, which was 20% compared to the base year. The decision also stated that it would bring about a significant reduction in air pollution from coal-burning power plants, and is expected to increase the demand for natural gas. Accordingly, in June–July 2018, governmental decisions about the electric power industry and about structural changes in the IEC were announced; the decisions discussed shutting down the four coal-fired power stations at the "Orot Rabin" facility.
On October 9, 2018, the Ministry of Energy publicised the "Plan for Saving Israel from Polluting Energy Sources", which set out concrete steps and goals for using natural gas in electricity generation, industry, and public transportation towards 2030. The goals set for 2030 include:
In the electric power production sector: that electric power production be divided between natural gas and renewable energy sources at proportions of roughly 80% and 20% respectively, while closing the coal-fired power plants in Hadera and Ashkelon, and ending the use of coal in electric power production.
In the industry sector: about 95% of the energy and steam required for industry shall be generated using natural gas.
In the transportation sector: a gradual transition to electric cars and natural gas-fuelled trucks, and a strict prohibition on importing cars that run on high-pollution fuels.
Any discussion of the Israeli energy market must reflect the harsh criticism expressed by Israeli environmental non-governmental organisations (NGOs) about the country's limited use of renewable energy sources. As they see it, Israel is still extremely backward in making use of renewable energy sources to generate electricity – even lagging behind the goals that the Government has set for the State of Israel. At present, renewable energy sources account for 3% of the total electric power produced.
In this context it is important to note that, under its commitment to the Paris Agreement, the Israeli government adopted a national plan, stating the goal of having at least 17% of electric power consumption come from renewable energy sources by the year 2030.
The State of Israel has significant potential to produce electricity from renewable sources, particularly solar energy. Extensive areas of the country, especially in the South, are bathed in sunlight practically year-round. Even in the winter months, those areas receive enough sunlight to produce a large amount of electricity. Distances within the country are relatively small, so electricity from solar power plants can be transmitted to consumers in other regions with relative ease. A large amount of capital is available from pension funds to finance the building and operation of such infrastructure projects, and international stakeholders are relatively enthusiastic about financing this kind of project in Israel – a country with a robust economy and good credit rating. In light of this, environmental organisations are demanding that the government produce much more electric power from solar energy.
Critics blame government ministries for holding back the renewable energy industry – or to be more precise, they point to a lack of cooperation and coordination among the ministries. A wide range of governmental bodies are involved in developing the statutory, administrative, and regulatory infrastructure required to build a power station based that uses renewable energy. To illustrate the complexity of the issue: the Planning Administration of the Interior Ministry has a governmental mandate to identify plots of land suitable for building power stations; the Israel Lands Authority is mandated to issue tenders for allocating the land, and to set the appropriate leasing and improvement fees for using the land; and finally, the Electric Power Authority of the Ministry of Energy is mandated to set the rate that IEC will pay the producers for the electricity produced from renewable sources. This rate must be calibrated such that on the one hand, entrepreneurs will be encouraged to build power stations based on solar and other alternative sources, while sparing the public from paying exorbitantly high prices for electricity.
Despite the slow pace at which Israel has adopted renewable-energy technologies for generating electric power, Electricity Authority officials are optimistic. The Authority's 2018 annual report states that, in spite of the challenges, the Authority estimates that the 2020 goal – having 10% of Israel's electric power generated from renewable energy sources – can be reached. Governmental decisions indicate a positive trend, supporting implementation of the determined goals. It should be noted, however, that due to general elections in 2019, there has been a certain delay in the administration of government processes, on this issue and in general. Acceleration of the government's efforts to support solar-powered electricity production will enable a gradual increase in Israel's clean electricity.
The vast energy resources discovered in the Mediterranean Sea have significant economic potential as well as potential to strengthen relations between the countries of the region including: Israel, Egypt, Jordan, Turkey, and Cyprus, as well as with the Palestinian Authority. Economic ties in the energy sector may lead to strengthening international relations, given the economic and political benefits that they can confer on all of the participants.
Agreements in the gas sector require long-term contractual relationships, generally for a number of decades, and they involve physical connections between countries via transmission pipelines. Thus, they could strengthen commercial relations and contribute to regional economic stability. Regional cooperation in the sector of gas and energy, which will grow hopefully in the future, can increase the responsible and stabilising factors in the Middle East.
Israel began exporting gas at the end of the fourth quarter of 2016, when it began supplying gas from the "Tamar" reservoir to the Arab-Potash and Jordan Bromine factories on the Jordanian side of the Dead Sea.
In addition, "Leviathan" operators signed a contract in September 2016 with the Jordanian electric company (NEPCO). They contracted to supply a total of approximately 45 BCM over a period of 15 years for producing electric power for the local Jordanian economy. This is a historic export agreement, being the largest gas export agreement signed with the Jordanian kingdom, and also the first signed agreement involving the "Leviathan" reservoir. This agreement is intended to serve as an anchor in the region, both geopolitically and in the energy sector.
In early 2018, the operators of "Tamar" signed an agreement to supply natural gas to the Egyptian firm, Dolphinus Holdings. This agreement is based on the surplus quantities of gas that the "Tamar" operators will have available, for a period of seven years from the time they begin supplying gas. The agreement sets a minimum cumulative supply amount of 5 BCM during the first three years, intended for consumption by the local Egyptian economy. This agreement depends on having infrastructure in place that will allow gas to be transported from "Tamar" to the Egyptians.
Israel is the main supplier of electricity to the Palestinian Authority. However, the Palestinian Authority has begun a process to create the capacity for independent power production, in part by building electric power generating power plants. Operators of "Tamar" and "Leviathan" have reported that they are in contact with various parties regarding the possibility of supplying natural gas to power plants in Gaza and in the area around Jenin.
In parallel, INGL (governmental company) is planning various export projects, including to the Palestinian Authority, as follows:
On October 28, 2018, INGL reported the beginning of negotiations with the Tamar gas consortium regarding the possibility of transmitting natural gas to Egypt via the pipeline infrastructure.
INGL is carrying out planning for a new pipeline segment to connect to a power plant and to additional consumers in the Gaza Strip, as part of a project initiated by several international parties.
The Gas Authority is also progressing plans for a new pipeline section to hook up to a planned power station in Jenin. In April 2017, an agreement was signed between Gas Routes and the entrepreneurial company building the Jenin power station, under which the planning costs for this section will be financed by the entrepreneur.
Furthermore, in December 2017, the Foreign ministers of Israel, Cyprus, Greece, and Italy signed a memorandum of understanding to construct a gas pipeline that will carry natural gas from the "Leviathan" natural gas reservoir to Italy. The planned pipeline is approximately 2,100 kilometres long, and will cost an estimated US$7 billion. It is expected to be completed in 2025. At the signing of the agreement, the ministers described it as a strategic infrastructure project for managing natural gas that is in the interest of all the countries as well as the European Union. The European Union representative estimated that Europe will need to increase its imports of natural gas by 100 BCM per year because of decreasing gas production from the North Sea, and that Europe views Israel and Cyprus as secure sources of gas supply in the future.
Such projects are undoubtedly of significant economic importance to the energy market, and involve complex national and international legal aspects. As such, as these projects progress, they will likely warrant further attention and discussion in future issues of this journal.

Trayvon Martin's Family Attorney Responds To George Zimmerman's Lawsuit
BY Danielle Jennings
Many were absolutely shocked and outraged at the news that George Zimmerman has decided to sue the parents of the late Trayvon Martin—who he murdered back in 2012. Just a few hours later, and Trayvon Martin's family attorney has officially responded just the way we hoped he would.
As we previously reported, despite being acquitted of murdering Trayvon Martin almost eight years ago, George Zimmerman has apparently come to the conclusion that his freedom is not enough—as he is now seeking $100 million from Trayvon's family and Florida state prosecutors due to claims of defamation and fake witnesses at his 2013 murder trial.
Zimmerman and his legal team came are basing the lawsuit on Trayvon's cell phone records, in which they claim prove that Rachel Jeantel was not Trayvon's girlfriend, was not on the phone with Trayvon before he was killed, and that she repeatedly lied to cause Zimmerman's arrest and attempt to send him to prison.
The press release for the lawsuit states:
"The research also allegedly reveals that Trayvon's real girlfriend and legitimate phone witness was in fact Miami resident Brittany Diamond Eugene, who was switched out for Jeantel when Eugene refused to bear false witness against Zimmerman."
Now, Trayvon Martin family attorney Benjamin Crump has fired back in a public statement:
"I have every confidence that this unfounded and reckless lawsuit will be revealed for what it is — another failed attempt to defend the indefensible and a shameless attempt to profit off the lives and grief of others. This plaintiff continues to display a callous disregard for everyone but himself, revictimizing individuals whose lives were shattered by his own misguided actions. He would have us believe that he is the innocent victim of a deep conspiracy, despite the complete lack of any credible evidence to support his outlandish claims. This tale defies all logic, and it's time to close the door on these baseless imaginings."
Whew! #TrayvonMartin's family attorney #BenCrump is not here for #GeorgeZimmerman's little lawsuit! ______________________________________ He says George is reckless, and has "callous disregard for everyone but himself." ????????
A post shared by The Shade Room (@theshaderoom) on Dec 4, 2019 at 11:36am PST
If you'll recall, George Zimmerman has been in continuous legal trouble since he was acquitted for the murder of Trayvon…and yet he still remains a free man.

Closely related to S. holospilus, S. klossi, S. kinabaluensis and S. rufipectus, and may be conspecific with any or all of these taxa. Races perplexus, minimus, abbotti, asturinus, sipora, natunensis and baweanus have recently been treated as valid individual species#R, but none of these appears to fulfil the required criteria for species status when compared with all other taxa in the complex, even though the nearest neighbour may be very different; for the moment, therefore, pending a more detailed and comprehensive analysis, these taxa are retained as subspecies of S. cheela. Situation in Nicobar Is somewhat complicated, although presence of two different species of Spilornis generally agreed upon: C Nicobars form minimus, when treated as a full species, often considered to include S. klossi as a race, but minimus is closer to other forms of S. cheela group#R; an undescribed form of present species (based on three specimens) in S Nicobars was previously thought to be of race malayensis, but clearly distinct from latter and from sympatric klossi#R. Several further races have been described, e.g. tonkinensis (from N Vietnam), but considered invalid. Twenty-one subspecies currently recognized.

Eastern Orthodox Monasticism
Novice (Greek: δόκιμος;
Church Slavonic: послушникъ, poslushnik), lit. "one under obedience"
Those wishing to join a monastery begin their lives as novices. After coming to the monastery and living as a guest for not less than three days, the abbot or abbess may bless the candidate to become a novice. There is no formal ceremony for the clothing of a novice, he or she simply receives permission to wear the clothing of a novice. In the Eastern monastic tradition, novices may or may not dress in the black inner cassock (Greek: Anterion (Αντερίον), Esorason (Εσώρασον); Church Slavonic: Podriasnik) and wear the soft monastic hat (Greek: Skoufos, Church Slavonic: Skufia), depending on the tradition of the local community, and in accordance with the abbot's directives. In some communities, the novice also wears the leather belt. Monks are given a prayer rope and instructed in the use of the Jesus Prayer.
If a novice chooses to leave during the period of the novitiate, no penalty is incurred. They may also be asked to leave at any time if their behavior does not conform to the monastic life, or if the superior discerns that they are not called to monasticism. When the abbot or abbess deems the novice ready, they are asked whether they wish to join the monastery. Some, out of humility, will choose to remain novices all their lives. Every stage of the monastic life must be entered on a completely voluntarily basis.
Rassophore
Rassophore (Greek: ρασοφόρος, Rasophoros;
Church Slavonic: рясофоръ, Ryasofor), lit. "Robe-bearer"
If the novice continues on to become a full monastic (monk/nun), they are clothed in the first degree of monasticism during a Service at which they receive the tonsure. Although no formal vows are made at this point, candidates is normally required to affirm their commitment to persevere in the monastic life. The abbot will then perform the tonsure, cutting a small amount of hair from four spots on the head, forming a cross. They are then given the outer cassock (Greek: ράσον, Rasson, Exorasson, or Mandorrason; Church Slavonic: рясса, Riassa), an outer robe with wide sleeves, from which the name of Rassophore is derived. He is also given a kalimavkion, a cylindrical brimless hat, which is covered with a veil called an epanokalimavkion. (These are separate items in the Greek tradition; in the Russian tradition the two are stitched together and collectively called a klobuk.) If They have not previously received it, a leather belt is fastened around his waist. The Habit is usually black, signifying that they are now dead to the world, and they receive a new name.
Although the Rassophore does not make formal vows, they are still expected to continue in the monastic state for the rest of their life. Some will remain Rassophores permanently without going on to the higher degrees.
Stavrophore
Stavrophore (Greek: σταυρoφόρος, Stavrophoros;
Church Slavonic крестоносецъ, Kkrestonosets), lit. "Cross-bearer"
The next level for Eastern monastics takes place some years after the first tonsure, when the abbot feels the monk has reached an appropriate level of discipline, dedication and humility. This degree is also known as the Small Schema and is thought of as a "betrothal" to the Great Schema. At this stage, the monastic makes formal vows of stability, of chastity, of obedience and of poverty. Then they are tonsured and clothed in the habit which, in addition to that worn by the Rassophore, includes the Paramandyas (Greek: παραμανδυας; Church Slavonic: параманъ, Paraman), a piece of square cloth worn on the back, embroidered with the instruments of the Passion, and connected by ties to a wooden cross worn over the heart. The Paramandyas represents the yoke of Christ. Because of this addition they are now called Stavrophore or Cross-bearer. They are also given a wooden hand cross ("profession cross"), which they should keep in their icon corner, and a beeswax candle, symbolic of monastic vigilance and personal sacrifice to God. They will be buried holding the cross, and the candle will be burned at their funeral. In the Slavic practice, the Stavrophore also wears the monastic mantle, which symbolizes 40 days of the Lord's fasting on the Mountain of Temptation.
After the ceremony, the newly tonsured Stavrophore will remain in vigil in the church for five days, refraining from all work, except spiritual reading. Customarily, this vigil is often reduced to three days. The abbot increases the Stavrophore's prayer rule, allows a more strict personal ascetic practice and gives more responsibility.
Great Schema
Great Schema (Greek: μεγαλόσχημος, Megaloschemos;
Church Slavonic: Схима, Schima)
Monastics, whose abbot feels they have reached a high level of spiritual excellence, enter the final stage, called the Great Schema. The tonsure of a Schemamonk or Schemanun follows the same format as the Stavrophore, They make the same vows and are tonsured in the same manner. In addition to all the garments worn by the Stavrophore, they are given the Analavos (Church Slavonic: Analav) which is the article of monastic vesture emblematic of the Great Schema. For this reason, the Analavos itself is sometimes itself called the "Great Schema". It drapes over the shoulders and hangs down in front and in back, with the front portion somewhat longer. It is embroidered with the instruments of the Passion and the Trisagion. The Greek form does not have a hood, the Slavic form has a hood and lappets on the shoulders, so that the garment forms a large cross covering the monastic's shoulders, chest and back. Another piece added is the Polystavrion (Πολυσταύριον, "Many Crosses"), which consists of a cord with a number of small crosses plaited into it. The Polystavrion forms a yoke around the monk and serves to hold the analavos in place. It reminds the monastic that they are bound to Christ and that their arms are no longer fit for worldly activities, but that they must labor only for the Kingdom of Heaven. In the Greek tradition, the mantle is added at this stage. The Paramandyas of the Megaloschemos is larger than that of the Stavrophore, and if they wear the Klobuk, it is of a distinctive thimble shape, called a Koukoulion, the veil of which is usually embroidered with crosses.
The Schemamonastic also shall remain some days in vigil in the church. On the eighth day after Tonsure, there is a special Service for the "Removal of the Koukoulion". – In some monastic traditions, the Great Schema is never given or is only given to monks and nuns on their death bed, while in others, e.g., the cenobitic monasteries on Mount Athos, it is common to tonsure a monastic into the Great Schema only three years after commencing the monastic life.
In Russian and some other traditions, when bearers of some monastic title acquires the Great Schema, their title incorporates the word "schema". For example, a Hieromonk of Great Schema is called Hieroschemamonk. Archimandrite becomes Schema-Archimandrite, Hegumen Schema-Hegumen, etc. In the Russian Orthodox tradition, in such cases the part "Schema" is commonly truncated to "схи" (skhe), and correspondingly the titles are spelled as схимонах (skhemonach), иеросхимонах (ieroskhemonach), схиархимандрит (skhearchimandrit), and схиигумен (skheigumen).

Lindsay Lohan Apologized For Her #MeToo Comments After Sparking Online Backlash
Chance Yeh/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
Earlier this month, Lindsay Lohan came under fire for the comments she made about the #MeToo movement, but now, she's trying to make peace with those she offended. In a statement released to People, Lohan apologized for her #MeToo comments, saying that she "feels strongly" about the movement and tried to explain what she meant when she originally opened up about it.
Lohan's initial comments about the movement came in an interview with The Times that was published on Aug. 4. When speaking to the U.K. publication, she said she didn't have any of her own #MeToo experiences in Hollywood and shared her opinion of women who have come forward to share their stories so far. She said:
If it happens at that moment, you discuss it at that moment. You make it a real thing by making it a police report. I'm going to really hate myself for saying this, but I think by women speaking against all these things, it makes them look weak when they are very strong women. You have these girls who come out, who don't even know who they are, who do it for the attention. That is taking away from the fact that it happened.
And now, in her latest statement, Lohan is clarifying what she meant by these comments.
Lohan's statement to People read:
I would like to unreservedly apologize for any hurt and distress caused by a quote in a recent interview with The Times. The quote solely related to my hope that a handful of false testimonies out of a tsunami of heroic voices do not serve to dilute the importance of the #MeToo movement, and all of us who champion it. However, I have since learned how statements like mine are seen as hurtful, which was never my intent. I'm sorry for any pain I may have caused.
She went on to add that she "feels strongly" about the movement, and that she admires the women who have opened up about their experiences with sexual harassment and assault since the #MeToo movement, originally started by Tarana Burke, began making headlines again in 2017.
Published on Sunday, Lohan's statement continued:
I feel very strongly about the #MeToo movement and have the utmost respect and admiration for the women brave enough to come forward and speak out about their experiences. Their testimony has served to protect those who can't speak, and give strength to those who have struggled to have their voices heard.
Since the initial story came out, many people have taken to Twitter to share their anger about Lohan's comments, leading to a lot of backlash. Presumably, this is what prompted her to apologize, but hopefully it's also a sign that she's recognized how much impact her words can have as a celebrity, especially when it comes to a topic like this one.
Women and men who have come forward to share their experiences as part of the #MeToo movement deserve to have their stories heard and taken seriously. As these stories continue to emerge, hopefully more positive change will continue to happen.

Argon & Co bolsters European team with R&G Global Consultants
02 February 2021 Consultancy.eu 2 min. read
R&G Global Consultants
International operations and transformation consultancy Argon & Co has bolstered its footprint in Europe with the acquisition of R&G Global Consultants.
The deal is Argon & Co's first since it secured growth capital from French private equity firm Ardian. At the time, CEO Yvan Salamon said that the investment would be used to open new offices "wherever clients want us to be" and potentially bolt-on new businesses to accelerate the growth process.
The addition of R&G Global Consultants adds a team of around 30 consultants in the Netherlands, France, Switzerland, UK and Germany to its ranks. R&G's consultants specialise in manufacturing and the wider supply chain, supporting clients on topics including performance improvement, business process excellence, lean excellence, and change management.
The move expands Argon & Co's offices in Paris and London, and provides the consulting firm with a market entry team in the markets of the Netherlands, Switzerland and Germany. Outside of Europe, Argon & Co also has operations in Abu Dhabi, Atlanta, Auckland, Melbourne, Mumbai and Singapore.
"R&G's capabilities and impressive results-driven approach make it a welcome addition to Argon & Co," said Salamon. He added that the two consultancies share a similar DNA on delivering results and a sweet spot for the strategic operations domain.
Christian Mertz, who co-founded R&G Global Consultants in 2004 together with a number of other former GE employees, said: "We are delighted to bring our heritage Six Sigma, Lean and operations expertise in manufacturing and supply chain to clients of Argon & Co throughout the world."
Aart Willem de Wolf, another of the co-founders, added: "This move enables the R&G team to prosper and grow in a large, fast-moving, global consultancy which shares our practical approach and client-centric DNA. It marks a very powerful combination."
The deal comes at a time of heightened demand for supply chain consulting services against the backdrop of the trade disruption caused by the Covid-19 crisis. According to a recent report by Consultancy.org, supply chain consulting is one of the few segments to have grown during the pandemic period, alongside the likes of restructuring, and obviously digital and technology.
Argon & Co was formed in 2018 by the merger between France's Argon Consulting and UK's Crimson & Co.

---

Combining sharp humour, ruthless violence and compassion, Simon Stephens' Punk Rock provides an unnerving chronicle of contemporary adolescence at the breaking point. A controversial and acute production that remains scarily relevant to the present day. This performance contains smoking.

Dress Up Like Uncle Fester from Addams Family
If you are looking for a good Uncle Fester costume for Halloween or a big cosplay event, here's the winning formula for creating the most exciting outfit of the party! Let's see how to dress up as Uncle Fester from Addams Family.
Costume Guide For COSPLAY & HALLOWEEN
Uncle Fester from Addams Family Costume Guide
Shopping List for Uncle Fester from Addams Family Costume & Outfit
Bald Cap
White Makeup
Black Robe
Black Eyeshadow
Who doesn't know the Addams family? With such an iconic yet simple theme that people still sing today, it has to be noted as a classic for its impression. There's plenty about the family that makes them special, particularly their gloomy, off-putting style, but there are a few characters that aren't as under the spotlight as others, like Uncle Fester. Ready to join this spooky family as the notable Uncle Fester? Get ready to put together a spooky costume to match!
Uncle Fester as he's seen on The Addams Family (1991)
Who is Uncle Faster?
Let's first look at Uncle Fester's origins before we move on to the costume.
Uncle Fester is the long-lost brother of Gomez Addams, believed to have been lost in the Bermuda Triangle for nearly twenty-five years. A grifter planned to steal the Addams family fortune using her son, Gordon, who looks strangely similar to the real Uncle Fester. When the Addams conduct a seance in hopes of reaching Uncle Fester, Gordon appears on their doorstep and is eventually swayed by the unknowing family and disobeys his mother to help them get back their uncle. However, it is later revealed that he's the real Uncle Fester and his "mother" simply found him as he was recovering from amnesia.
Uncle Fester also has an unusual ability to conduct electricity, which he apparently gained as a child by being struck by lightning. Often demonstrated by placing a lightbulb in his mouth, which quickly illuminates upon contact.
How do you create an Uncle Fester costume and Makeup?
Prettylilrenee shows off how to do the makeup for an Uncle Fester cosplay
So what's the gist on this creepy Uncle's outfit? Pretty simple actually.
Uncle Fester, along with the rest of the Addams family, usually dedicates himself to one color. Go ahead and get yourself a long black robe with long sleeves, wrap a grayish rope belt around the waist and you're already most of the way there. Just add a long-sleeved black coat and some black boots and his outfit is complete. Now don't worry, if you have a nice head of hair, no need to totally commit, just buy yourself a bald cap to cover that up. Add a little purple and black eyeshadow and some white face paint to really smooth out the entire look. Then last but not least, the lightbulb!
Addams Family Poster (1991)
So who's the genius designer behind this off-putting Uncle's look? Ruth Myers! Who did a wonderful job making an impressionable Uncle Fester. We should thank her for the excellent costuming that we have already presented with the Gomez Addams costume and Pugsley Addams costume. Look at the two costumes, if you do not attend the party alone, a good idea for the whole group,
So be your spookiest in this costume on Halloween night!

The poet Ian Crockatt has published two superb translations of Viking poetry with Arc- Crimsoning the Eagle's Claw: the Viking Poems of Rognvaldr Kali Kolsson, Earl of Orkney and The Song Weigher: the Complete Poems of Egill Skallagrimsson, Tenth Century Viking & Skald – and in this chapbook he uses the same highly-wrought form developed by the Skalds (the professional poets employed by the kings and earls of the Viking courts of the 9th to 13th centuries) to tell a quasi-Viking tale set in the landscapes and seascapes once under Viking control – the West Coast of Scotland where he used to live, and the north-east corner of Scotland where he now lives.

Poverty needs a plan
Better late than never. While seven of Canada's provinces and all three territories have already completed or begun an interdisciplinary plan to tackle poverty in their borders, Alberta is just beginning to gather consensus to ask permission to present a proposal to develop such a plan — a process hopefully to begin next year.
There's plenty of room for cynicism, considering whether there's any real interest in studying poverty in Canada's most polarized economy. Focusing on wealth is so much more engaging.
But there are benefits to arriving late. We have the efforts of 10 other governments to mine for insight while we conduct our investigation into how many millions of tax dollars can be saved every year by paying attention to the root cause of so much strain on our health, welfare, policing, justice and education safety nets.
One such study is just now being tabulated: a project begun in Manitoba about 40 years ago, to see if a guaranteed annual income could really be cost effective, over time. Early reports by University of Manitoba professor Evelyn Forget suggest it might.
Think we can afford to ignore homelessness, for instance?
In Calgary, the average annual bill for each and every homeless person in the city is estimated at $134,000. That includes running emergency shelters, plus costs for emergency hospital visits, law enforcement and social services. It's four times the average $34,000 cost of putting a person into supported, subsidized housing designed to keep poor people out of hospital, out of jail and moving toward steady employment.
These are numbers that Joe Ceci, provincial poverty reduction co-ordinator for the Alberta Inter-City Forum on Social Policy, understands well. A social worker by training, he has been a Calgary alderman for 15 years and has wrestled with them in every city budget.
He wants Alberta's municipalities to join him in lobbying the government for the authority (and funding) to create a planned provincial response to poverty, and ultimately to reduce its financial and social costs.
A couple of items to consider. Right now, 8.5 per cent of Alberta residents are considered low income. The national average was pegged at 9.4 per cent in the 2008 census, and is estimated (and due for correction in the current census) at 12.5 per cent.
But because of Alberta's oil-based economy, the gap between rich and poor is widening faster than the rest of the country. Incomes are rising, but they are rising far faster for everyone whose household income is $80,000 or more (median household income in Alberta for the 2008 census was just over $85,00). For families earning $40,000 a year or less, incomes have just barely kept pace with our past decade of low inflation. The poorest group fell behind.
Supported housing programs are one good alternative for study.
Indexing social supports, like welfare and AISH, to inflation would be another.
Ted Clark, CEO of the Toronto-Dominion Bank, suggests the lower income brackets are overtaxed and more burden should be picked up by the growing group earning $90,000-plus.
Much is being made of the demographic bulge in our economy that will need costly health care in the next couple of decades. Little is being made of the resources being spent taking care of the poor — without treating the reasons for their poverty.
How much of those resources could be better spent if we had a better plan? How many millions would be left over for improved geriatric care if desperately poor people weren't being ferried to emergency wards by police, over and over again?
We're late getting into this but that might help us raise the bar for all.

Home Content Index End Times End Times Events Heaven and earth will pass away
What does it mean that heaven and earth will pass away?
The Bible consistently warns us that this world will not last forever. "Heaven and earth will pass away," Jesus said in Matthew 24:35. His statement was in the context of end times' prophecies and the eternal nature of Jesus' words: "My words will never pass away." This means that trusting Jesus is wiser than trusting anything in this world.
Jesus also refers to the passing away of heaven and earth in Matthew 5:18. In Revelation 21:1, John writes of a new heaven and a new earth in the eternal state, having seen that "the first heaven and the first earth had passed away" (cf. Isaiah 65:17 and 2 Peter 3:13). To "pass away" is to disappear or be no more. This refers to the physical heaven and earth—the material world and all it contains—but not to the spirits/souls of the inhabitants of those places. Scripture is clear that people will outlast the current material universe, some in a state of eternal bliss and some in a state of eternal misery, and that the current universe will be replaced by another that will never know the contamination of sin.
The method of this world's destruction is revealed in 2 Peter 3:10–12: "The day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire. . . . That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat." In Noah's day, the world was destroyed with water, but God promised to send no more global floods (Genesis 9:11). In the Day of the Lord, the universe will be destroyed by fire.
The prophet Isaiah foretold the passing away of heaven and earth, too. "All the stars in the sky will be dissolved and the heavens rolled up like a scroll; all the starry host will fall like withered leaves from the vine, like shriveled figs from the fig tree" (Isaiah 34:4). The Lord assures His people that, even as the heaven and earth are passing away, His salvation is secure: "The heavens will vanish like smoke, the earth will wear out like a garment and its inhabitants die like flies. But my salvation will last forever, my righteousness will never fail" (Isaiah 51:6).
Knowing that heaven and earth will pass away gives us perspective in life. This world is not our home. "We are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells" (2 Peter 3:13). Jesus tells us to have the proper priorities: "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth. . . . But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven" (Matthew 6:19–20). And Peter, after reminding us of the temporary nature of this world, says, "Dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him" (2 Peter 3:14).

Morning Briefing: The Weekend Brought Only More Bad News for the White House
By Dustin Rowles | Politics | June 12, 2017 |
— The big development over the weekend is that Jeff Sessions — further embroiled in the Russian controversy after the James Comey hearing — opted against testifying in an open hearing in front of the Senate Appropriations Committee, and will instead testify tomorrow in front of the Senate Intelligence Committee in what is believed to be a closed session. Sessions is clearly scared of something getting out, and the last thing he wants to do is piss off Trump, who already resents him for getting him into this mess by recusing himself and setting the DOJ up to appoint a special prosecutor. If Sessions even confirms that he left Comey alone with Trump, it could look bad for both Trump and Sessions. A growing number of Republicans are uneasy with Sessions' involvement with Russia.
Update: Sessions has reversed course and will testify tomorrow in a public hearing. Should be good for ratings, huh, Trump?
— Speaking of Mueller, it does appear that several on the far right are laying the groundwork to fire the special prosecutor. Politically speaking, I don't know how that wouldn't be the nail in the coffin of the Trump presidency.
Growing theme amomg pro-Trump allies and media figures in recent days: laying the groundwork for ousting Mueller. pic.twitter.com/7AJ8qd70cD
— Matt Ford (@fordm) June 12, 2017
— Firing Mueller, in fact, might give the GOP the leverage they need to get rid of Trump. According to Axios, they'd be much happier with a President Pence:
Beyond his base voters, Trump has an even bigger potential problem looming with his base in Congress. While Republican lawmakers won't say it publicly, it's widely known if they could pick between President Pence and President Trump, the Vice President would win 90% of the vote among the GOP.
— There's further proof of that in the fact that the Republicans — despite pressure from The White House — have refused so far to back Trump's attacks on James Comey, according to Politico:
Across national news shows on Sunday, Republican lawmakers showed varying degrees of concern about Trump's handling of the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election, and his decision to fire Comey in the midst of that probe. Though many contended the reaction to Comey's testimony was overblown, most said Trump had acted improperly — even if it was out of naivete and not malice.
— That same Axios piece confirms what many Republicans have been saying behind closed doors: That they are terrified that the House will flip in 2018.
What Republicans fear: a downward spiral in which the Russia distractions make it harder to pass Trump's agenda, new talent won't come into the West Wing, top-shelf potential challengers are reluctant to run as Republicans in 2018, the House flips, and article of impeachment become a real risk.
Their worst fear is our ideal scenario.
— Meanwhile, D.C. and Maryland are now gearing up to sue the Trump Administration for violating the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution.
The lawsuit, a signed copy of which Racine and Frosh provided to The Washington Post on Sunday night, alleges "unprecedented constitutional violations" by Trump. The suit says Trump's continued ownership of a global business empire has rendered the president "deeply enmeshed with a legion of foreign and domestic government actors" and has undermined the integrity of the U.S. political system.
The lawsuit comes days after the Department of Justice basically said that Trump is not violating the Constitution by repeatedly accepting payments from foreign governments at Trump owned properties.
— Elsewhere, the latest rumor is that Reince Priebus now has until the 4th of July to clean up the White House or he will be fired. This threat, however, has been looming over the Chief of Staff since the beginning of the Trump Presidency, and it's unclear if Trump will ever follow through on the threat. Corey Lewandowski and David Bossie are seen as potential replacements, although both would probably be disastrous for Trump. Then again, Trump does have a propensity for shooting himself in the foot.
— Finally, word is that Donald Trump will not be visiting the UK this year, after all, as he had previously planned. He apparently fears wide-scale protests, which is understandable after he went after the London mayor on Twitter last week.

Northmont lays goose egg at Wayne

HUBER HEIGHTS – Facing the No. 2 ranked team in the state is never an easy task, especially when it's a division rival and even more so when your offense runs hot and cold from one week to the next.
Friday night Northmont was ice cold – generating no points in a 38-0 loss to Wayne. With the victory Wayne improves to 8-0 and 3-0 in division play while Northmont falls to 1-7 and 0-3.
It's not that the Thunderbolts didn't have their chances, but they failed to capitalize one those chances.
Northmont had the ball in the red zone four times but couldn't generate a single point.
Wayne took a 7-0 lead with 4:06 remaining in the first quarter on a 2 yard run by Antwand Wilson.
Northmont went three and out on its next possession, but got the ball back when Austin Kossoudji intercepted a Messiah DeWeaver pass at the Wayne 27 and returned the ball to the 13. The Thunderbolts couldn't score a touchdown and a 31 yard field goal attempt sailed wide left.
Wayne increased its lead to 14-0 on a 19 yard touchdown pass from DeWeaver to Fred Pitts with 5:52 remaining in the first half.
The Thunderbolts mounted a scoring threat on its next possession. Brenden Reck completed a 36 yard first down pass to Arius Spears to give Northmont a first down at the Warriors' 37. Northmont drove to the two yard line but coughed the ball up on a fumble with Wayne recovering the ball at the six.
Five plays later DeWeaver tossed a 58 yard touchdown pass to L'Christian Smith to put Wayne up 21-0 at halftime. That's the kind of night it was for the injury plagued T-Bolts.
"We were inside the five twice and inside the 20 four times and didn't get any points. We missed a field goal, we turned it over and when you are playing the Number 2 team in the state you can't leave points on the field," said Northmont Coach Tony Broering. "We had all the momentum. We had a ten play drive and came away with nothing, so that hurt us on that first drive. The defense got an interception for us and we didn't get anything out of that. Our defense is playing their hearts out and our offense did some really good things, it was just once we got inside the red zone we couldn't capitalize."
Wayne took the second half kick off and on its first play from scrimmage Daryl McCleskey scored on a 67 yard run to put the Warriors up 28-0.
McCleskey returned Northmont's next punt 39 yards to give Wayne a first down at the Thunderbolts 13 yard line. The Warriors settled for a 32 yard field goal by Nate Strong to make it 31-0.
Late in the third quarter Wayne mounted its final scoring drive that covered 82 yards. DeWeaver connected with L'Christian Smith for a 37 yard pass play to give the Warriors a first and goal at the Northmont three yard line. Antwand Wilson scored on a one yard run with 11:11 remaining in the game to make 38-0 and the mercy rule went into effect with clock running constantly from that point on.
Running back Avery Miliner went out with an injury during the first half adding to the Thunderbolts' long list of injured players.
"Wayne has a very good defense,"Broering stated. "I don't think anyone other than Moeller has scored on them yet. That's why I was so frustrated at halftime because we had the chance to score 21 points against a team that only Moeller has scored on and we kind of let them off the hook. It was tough on us in the second half because we didn't have a running back and had to go with an empty backfield on every snap."
Broering is frustrated for his team because he feels they deserve to win.
"They are good kids and do everything I ask of them. They are good kids and I feel bad for them because they deserve a win," he added. "We have a lot injuries. Wayne is missing 12 kids but they are all back up players. We have 19 guys injured and of that, seven are legitimate starters."
Broering did not care for the new rule this year that dictates that the clock must continue to run once a team takes a 35 point lead.
"I am not a fan of that rule," Broering said. "I know they wanted to get the running clock. I think they put that rule in to discourage unsportsmanlike conduct of coaches running the score up. These guys wouldn't run it up on me. I've known Jay Minton forever and his assistant Brian Blevins. They are my friends, but because they want to get that running clock you have to do something that's not really something they want to do. They don't really want to run a hitch-and-go pass when it's 31-0, but they did because they wanted to get that running clock. So the rule really isn't serving the right purpose in a game like this."

Boris Johnson 'regularly complains he can't afford to do his job'
Claims have again surfaced that Boris Johnson often moans his £157,000 salary is not enough to get by on.
Sam Courtney-Guy metro.co.uk
The PM had to give up several lucrative gigs when he took office including £275,000 a year to write a weekly column for the Daily Telegraph, slashing his total earnings from a reported £830,000.
Meanwhile his expenses have ramped up, including a divorce settlement with ex-wife Marina Wheeler which is rumoured to have left him 'cleaned out'.
It is now commonplace to hear Boris complain about money problems, according to Downing Street insiders interviewed for a new investigation into the PM's personal finances.
Mr Johnson is said to occasionally come out with tear-jerkers such as: 'I just can't afford to do this job'.
Rumours of his financial difficulties crystallised around the 'Wallpapergate' scandal earlier this year, when it emerged that a refurbishment of the Downing Street had been paid for by Tory donors and that tens of thousands of pounds of costs had not been declared – though the party insists it was registered 'correctly'.
Although the PM eventually picked up the tab, the report, by the Financial Times, now indicates was initially advised to pay for the work with a loan.
One Downing Street staffer told the newspaper: 'Boris would come down and complain about how much it was all going to cost.'
The recommendation is said to have come from the Conservative party's co-chair, Ben Elliot, who, in contrast to his close friend Boris, is known in Tory circles as a fundraising virtuoso who is never short of cash or wealthy connections.
Mr Johnson then briefly explored setting up a charitable trust to make the works more financially efficient, but the idea collapsed as the flat was a private space.
The PM's property portfolio also appears to have shrunk in recent years.
While divorce proceedings with Ms Wheeler, his second wife, were underway in 2019, the pair sold their Islington townhouse for £3.35 million.
Mr Johnson then bought a house with his future wife Carrie Symonds in Camberwell, south London, for £1.2 million.
His other properties are his Grade II cottage in Oxfordshire, which is now rented out for £4,250 a month, and a 20 per cent share of the Johnson family home in Exmoor.
