How Cultures Form, Part II - Forming Culture In Detroit
March 06, 2014 / Neil Tambe
A friend and colleague who I've never had the privilege to meet in person, framed up my last post on how cultures form very clearly in a tweet. I'd to like to use his simple framing as the foundation of evaluating how culture forms in Detroit and thinking of solutions:
.@ntambe on how cultures form. The ideas (& actions) that get reinforced the most become part of the culture. http://t.co/TpUe26TuH6
— Matt Frost (@mattgfrost) March 5, 2014
I agree, the ideas (and actions) that are the most reinforced become part of the culture. If that's true, there is a two step process for evaluating and improving cultural formation in Detroit, via two questions.
Do cultural ideas and actions becomes reinforced (or not reinforced) effectively?
If answering no to the first question, what should we do about it?
I'll now consider these questions in turn. In my last post, I broke down cultural formation into two categories with three components each. I'll use this framework as the basis of analysis:
Culture forming behaviors must be present and effective:
Are individuals and groups effectively expressing cultural ideas?
Are cultural ideas being shared amongst to all Detroiters?
Are individuals and groups combining cultural ideas with other information and forming new cultural ideas?
The interaction channels which enable culture forming behaviors must be present and effective:
Are there mechanisms which are enabling the original transmission of cultural ideas
Are there mechanisms which are enabling wider dissemination of cultural ideas
Are there mechanisms enabling the evaluation of and reflection on cultural ideas?
Do cultural ideas and actions become reinforced (or not reinforced) effectively in Detroit? First, a look at culture forming behaviors:
Expressing cultural ideas in Detroit Something I find interesting about the people who express cultural ideas with their thoughts and actions in Detroit is that attention is focused on a limited number of voices and stories. Individuals and media alike reinforce the same class of social entrepreneurs, the same foundations, and the same business leaders. As a result, I think the only people who express ideas about the culture are in the same group of people. Everyday Detroiters don't have a means of asserting their spin on what Detroit means to them, and probably don't feel like it's valued.
We certainly have a strong, clear, and confident group of people expressing cultural ideas in Detroit, the group just isn't very diverse. The poster children of the city are the ones that are vaulted into the public spotlight because of their position, wealth, or the timeliness of their work. If there is a voice for everyday Detroiters, I can't think of one.
Sharing cultural ideas in Detroit I think it's pretty common for ideas to be shared in Detroit. Detroit feels like a small town for a city its size and word travels fast here. What's problematic is that information doesn't travel across different types of communities. What the artists are talking about and learning doesn't really get co-mingled with what business leaders are talking about and learning, for example. Our city exists in social silos. If you want a deep and thoughtful explanation of how the siloed-ness matters, talk to Chad.
Forming new cultural ideas in Detroit In my observation, Detroit is mixed when it comes to forming new cultural ideas. Most Detroiters seem to be resistant to the notion of engaging in the realm of ideas, and aren't good at it anyway. (Go to panel discussions with public Q&A to witness the difficult Detroiters have with asking deep questions.)
Instead, the focus of most Detroiters I come across - not that it's a bad thing, necessarily - is how to get something done. It's about executing and not exchanging at a deeper, more reflective level. There are a few exceptions to this, there are a few groups of people who seem to step back and reflect: artists / writers and the people in Venture for America or other cohorts like VFA. It's funny, a lot of the more reflective people I've come across weren't brought up in Michigan.
In addition to all this, public figures don't seem to be reflecting much and communicating narratives that give social permission to reflect and "ask why." More to come on this in a few weeks. If leadership in the city is razor-focused on execution (with little room for reflection) why would individuals give it a go?
Next, a look at interaction channels.
Enabling the original transmission of cultural ideas From my observation, it seems like there are plenty of ways to originally transmit cultural ideas, although, lots of these mechanisms are through digital channels or through a job (e.g., twitter, kickstarter, a company initiative, artist galleries, etc.) It seems as though there aren't really many physical spaces or social settings to express cultural ideas that are broadly accessible. This is somewhat problematic because Detroit is a city that is not extremely digitally savvy.
Moreover, using digital mechanisms to express a cultural ideas is self-selecting process because it's very public. Because digital channels are very public, it makes it difficult to express provocative ideas without sterilizing them for broader consumption...there's some lost intimacy and nuance.
Enabling the dissemination of cultural ideas There aren't many mechanisms to share ideas broadly, mechanisms for broad sharing are fractured. First, media channels have very pointed audiences. Everything from Crain's Detroit Business to Hell Yeah! Detroit) has a niche audience. We even have two local papers which prevent multiple points of view from being expressed on a single opinion page. Having niche mass media channels prevents ideas from being shared widely across different communities in Detroit and prevents those ideas from bumping up against each other.
Second, social networks don't exist across communities. This prevents ideas from percolating both in the physical and digital worlds. Ideas can't get legs across communities, so they stay within sub-groups which limits Detroit to only having sub-cultures.
Enabling the evaluation and reflection of cultural ideas Just as people don't seem to be reflective on their own, there aren't really formal mechanisms for evaluation and reflection either. We don't have ways to give feedback to city institutions, nor do we have many things like Fail Fest or Nerd Nite. There also aren't a ton of third spaces (public, semi-private, or private) which foster reflection. Moreover, the third spaces that do exist require reliable transportation to reach...something many Detroiters don't have.
What should we do about it?
This post is already rather long, and recommendations are supposed to be short and sweet, so I'll keep it that way. I'll publish some more specific proposals soon. For now, here are some things we can do (broadly speaking) to improve the possibility of forming culture in Detroit, given all this analysis:
Model and highlight behavior which give individuals the social proof to express cultural ideas
Bridge the digital divide so a wider group of Detroiters can engage in the sharing of cultural ideas
Take pauses in the execution of projects for the public to weigh-in on implementation plans, allowing the new cultural ideas to bubble up
Create public opportunities (forums) for everyday Detroiters to express themselves and transmit cultural ideas
Bridge social circles through a consistent series of accessible public events, creating the networks which could broadly disseminate cultural ideas, eventually
Create opportunities for individuals and organizations to share learnings , focusing on reflections and not strategic planning - this will compel presenters and listeners to evaluate and reflect on cultural ideas

Chemistry is an experimental science that combines academic study with the acquisition of practical and investigational skills. Chemical principles underpin both the physical environment in which we live and all biological systems. Chemistry is often a prerequisite for many other courses in higher education, such as medicine, biological science and environmental science.

Physics is the most fundamental of the experimental sciences, as it seeks to explain the universe itself, from the very smallest particles to the vast distances between galaxies. Despite the exciting and extraordinary development of ideas throughout the history of physics, observations remain essential to the very core of the subject. Models are developed to try to understand observations, and these themselves can become theories that attempt to explain the observations. Besides helping us better understand the natural world, physics gives us the ability to alter our environments. This raises the issue of the impact of physics on society, the moral and ethical dilemmas, and the social, economic and environmental implications of the work of physicists.
By studying physics students should become aware of how scientists work and communicate with each other. While the scientific method may take on a wide variety of forms, it is the emphasis on a practical approach through experimental work that characterizes the subject.
Teachers provide students with opportunities to develop manipulative skills, design investigations, collect data, analyze results and evaluate and communicate their findings.

The IB Diploma Programme language A: literature course develops understanding of the techniques involved in literary criticism and promotes the ability to form independent literary judgments. In language A: literature, the formal analysis of texts and wide coverage of a variety of literature—both in the language of the subject and in translated texts from other cultural domains—is combined with a study of the way literary conventions shape responses to texts.
Students completing this course will have a thorough knowledge of a range of texts and an understanding of other cultural perspectives. They will also have developed skills of analysis and the ability to support an argument in clearly expressed writing, sometimes at significant length. This course will enable them to succeed in a wide range of university courses, particularly in literature but also in subjects such as philosophy, law and language.
The IB Diploma Programme Economics course forms part of group 3 - individuals and societies.
The study of economics is essentially about dealing with scarcity, resource allocation and the methods and processes by which choices are made in the satisfaction of human wants. As a dynamic social science, economics uses scientific methodologies that include quantitative and qualitative elements.
The course emphasizes the economic theories of microeconomics, which deal with economic variables affecting individuals, firms and markets, and the economic theories of macroeconomics, which deal with economic variables affecting countries, governments and societies. These economic theories are not to be studied in a vacuum—rather, they are to be applied to real-world issues. Prominent among these issues are fluctuations in economic activity, international trade, economic development and environmental sustainability.
The ethical dimensions involved in the application of economic theories and policies permeate throughout the economics course as students are required to consider and reflect on human end-goals and values.
The economics course encourages students to develop international perspectives, fosters a concern for global issues, and raises students' awareness of their own responsibilities at a local, national and international level. The course also seeks to develop values and attitudes that will enable students to achieve a degree of personal commitment in trying to resolve these issues, appreciating our shared responsibility as citizens of an increasingly interdependent world.
At both standard level and higher level, candidates are required to study four topics: microeconomics, macroeconomics, international economics and development economics with some sub-topics within these reserved solely for higher level. These sections are assessed by two examinations at standard level and three examinations at higher level.
In addition to the examinations, candidates must submit an internal assessment. Both standard level and higher level economics students must produce a portfolio of three commentaries based on articles from published news media.
The extended essay is a compulsory, externally assessed piece of independent research into a topic chosen by the student and presented as a formal piece of academic writing. The extended essay is intended to promote high-level research and writing skills, intellectual discovery and creativity while engaging students in personal research. This leads to a major piece of formally presented, structured writing of up to 4,000 words in which ideas and findings are communicated in a reasoned, coherent and appropriate manner.
Students are guided through the process of research and writing by an assigned supervisor (a teacher in the school). All students undertake three mandatory reflection sessions with their supervisor, including a short interview, or viva voce, following the completion of the extended essay. Extended essay topics may be chosen from a list of approved DP subjects—normally one of the student's six chosen subjects for the IB diploma or the world studies option. World studies provides students with the opportunity to carry out an in-depth interdisciplinary study of an issue of contemporary global significance, using two IB disciplines.
Overview of the extended essay process:
1. Choose the approved DP subject.
2. Choose a topic.
3. Undertake some preparatory reading.
4. Formulate a well-focused research question.
5. Plan the research and writing process.
6. Plan a structure (outline headings) for the essay. This may change as the research develops.
7. Carry out the research.
Writing and formal presentation
The required elements of the final work to be submitted are as follows.
• Title page
• Contents page
• Body of the essay
• Conclusion
• References and bibliography
The upper limit of 4,000 words includes the introduction, body, conclusion and any quotations.
Reflection process
As part of the supervision process, students undertake three mandatory reflection sessions with their supervisor. These sessions form part of the formal assessment of the extended essay and research process. The purpose of these sessions is to provide an opportunity for students to reflect on their engagement with the research process and is intended to help students consider the effectiveness of their choices, re-examine their ideas and decide on whether changes are needed. The final reflection session is the viva voce.
The viva voce is a short interview (10–15 minutes) between the student and the supervisor, and is a mandatory conclusion to the process. The viva voce serves as:
• a check on plagiarism and malpractice in general
• an opportunity to reflect on successes and difficulties
• an opportunity to reflect on what has been learned
• an aid to the supervisor's report.
• review what has already been written about the topic
• formulate a clear research question
• offer a concrete description of the methods used to investigate the question
• generate reasoned interpretations and conclusions based on their reading and independent research in order to answer the question
• reflect on what has been learned throughout the research and writing process.

Q: Java simple calculator Error I am very new to java and i'm trying to make a basic calculator. There is another question on this but I changed the things that fixed it for him but it still doesn't work. Here's my code:
import java.util.Scanner;

class HelloWorld{

    public static void main(String args[])

        int num1;
        int num2;
        String op;
        Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.println("Enter your first number");

        num1 = input.nextInt();

        System.out.println("Enter your second number");
        num2 = input.nextInt();

        System.out.println("Enter the operation");
        op = input.nextLine();

        if (op.equals("*")){
            System.out.println("The answer is: " + (num2 * num1));
        }

        if (op.equals("/")){
            System.out.println("The answer is: " + (num2 / num1));
        }

        if (op.equals("+")){
            System.out.println("The answer is: " + (num2 + num1));
        }

        if (op.equals("-")){
            System.out.println("The answer is: " + (num2 - num1));
        }
     }
  }

The error says:
Enter your first number
Exception in thread "main" java.util.NoSuchElementException
at java.util.Scanner.throwFor(Scanner.java:907)
at java.util.Scanner.next(Scanner.java:1530)
at java.util.Scanner.nextInt(Scanner.java:2160)
at java.util.Scanner.nextInt(Scanner.java:2119)
at HelloWorld.main(HelloWorld.java:12)

I can't seem to find whats wrong (I have its something simple that i missed)

A: What are you entering?
Enter your first number
10
Enter your second number
20
Enter the operation
*
The answer is: 200

A: I'm not sure your program would even compile the way you have it, but here's one problem:
You didn't open your main method with an open curly brace.
Change this:
public static void main(String args[])

to this:
public static void main(String args[]) {

When I tested your code, it terminated after Enter the operation. However, when I changed this line:
op = input.nextLine();

to this:
op = input.next();

It worked perfectly.
Here is an example of the console input/output:
Enter your first number
10
Enter your second number
20
Enter the operation
*
The answer is: 200

A: Only thing I see wrong is public **satic** void main(String args[])  Other than that it's doing what it should...

A: Whenever, you read any token from Scanner. You have the facility to check whether it really exists with hasNext() methods. So, you can do
For checking ints :
if(input.hasNextInt())
input.nextInt()

For checking lines :
if(input.hasNextLine())
input.nextLine()

This will get rid of the NoSuchElementException
Update:
 System.out.println("Enter the operation");
 op = input.next(); //changing it to next() fixed it

Output
 run:
    Enter your first number
    2
    Enter your second number
    3
    Enter the operation
    *
    The answer is: 6
    BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 6 seconds)

The Gospel of Loki by Joanne M. Harris
by Shiny New Books	| Posted on April 30, 2014 August 19, 2020
Reviewed by Annabel Gaskell
I knew that Joanne Harris, author of Chocolat, had other literary strings to her bow, for a few years ago she published two volumes of fantasy for teens based upon the Vikings and Norse myth called Runemarks and Runelight. I wondered if she'd ever do something similar for older readers … It'll be no surprise to you to find out that she has. Published in February, The Gospel of Loki with its gorgeous cover went straight into the best-seller lists proving, I hope, that good story-telling transcends genre.
It's interesting to note that this book is published under the name Joanne M. Harris. It's not just an affectation to mimic the late Iain Banks who published his SF titles as Iain M. Banks, although surely there must be a tribute element there? Joanne's middle name is Michèle – so it's legitimate, and like Banks she has decided to distinguish her fantasy books, which are under a different publisher, from her mainstream ones.
Now, my knowledge of Norse myths is rather hazy at best – mostly coming from Wagner, so before embarking upon Harris' novel, I read Ragnarök by A S Byatt, which neatly summarises the story of Asgard, the Norse Gods and their downfall, framed by the device of a child evacuee reading about them during WWII. I really enjoyed the Byatt and I'm glad that I read a conventional retelling of those stories, as it really helped to see both sides – however even Byatt's narrator is taken with Loki, the clever, flame-haired outsider.
Harris' novel lets Loki tell us his version of things, and he is such good company. He's an absolute charmer with the gift of the gab, a problem-solver who will sort you out – but oftimes cause as many new ones as are resolved. Demon-born from chaos, he's mercurial and Puckish, a very naughty schoolboy indeed, evading certain death or expulsion by the skin of his teeth countless times. The Goddesses love him and he loves them, but the Gods don't! Even Odin, who adopted Loki as his brother because he's useful, will only support him so far.
'What do you want from me?' I said.
'I need your talents,' said Odin. 'The Vanir gave me their knowledge, but even runes aren't everything. I brought this world out of blood and ice. I gave it rules and a purpose. Now I must protect what I've built, or see it slide back into anarchy. But Order cannot survive alone; its laws are too fixed; it cannot bend. Order is like ice that creeps, bringing life to a standstill. Now that we're at peace again, Aesir and Vanir, the ice will creep back. Stagnation will come. My kingdom will fall into darkness. I cannot be seen to break my own rules. But I do need someone on my side who can break them for me when necessary.'
'And what do I get in return, again?' He grinned and said: 'I'll make you a god.'
Yes! – Loki is Thomas Cromwell to Odin's Henry VIII.
Although being 'the go-to man of Asgard', Loki remains an outsider, never awarded his own halls in the great citadel. He can't go back to the realm of chaos having thrown his lot in with the Gods of Asgard. Poor Loki just wants to be loved, but even his kids don't love him – as well as twins with his wife, he fathered three with Angie, (Angrboda) a witch who lives in the woods. His daughter Hel becomes guardian of the Dead, his son Jormungand is the World Serpent, and Fenris a demon wolf; all three will have their part to play in the downfall of Asgard.
If there is one person Loki hates more than Thor, it's Baldur the beautiful. Loki engineers his death in a trick reminiscent in a way of the ancient Greek tale of Achilles and his heel, and that's the start of the end. It gets very serious from thereon in, as the prophecies from the oracle of Mimir's head start to reveal everyone's fate, Loki included.
The novel starts off in high spirits with Loki introducing us to the cast of characters, for instance: 'Bragi – god of poetry. Two words: expect lutes.' and 'Freyja … Will sleep with practically anyone as long as jewellery is involved.' He's flippant, irreverent and streetwise – I liked him from the start. Whereas Byatt's account was driven by the force of nature and is rather beautiful in its prose, Harris' novel is about the characters: their personalities, motivations and failings. The language is in the vernacular, chatty, full of asides and it is often very funny.
We need to remember that the gods and goddesses of Asgard were just one nation founded from two previously warring tribes. The peace that exists between them and the inhabitants of the other lands is shaky right from the start. The gods of Asgard are too selfish and too boastful. In Harris' version, without Loki's negotiating skills they wouldn't have lasted as long as they did. In letting Loki tell us of these capricious and self-obsessed figures, we learn that when the mighty fall, it's with one heck of a crash.

Hey guys! I think it's time to make what I'm working on an official project since things seem to be going well.
Anyways, I'll try to post updates as they're available. Now I wait for my silicone mix to come in!
Post was edited 3 times, last by "Momobox" ( Dec 28th 2018, 6:45am ).
This is the best picture I got of the final sculpt before doing some serious sanding. I'm really happy with it and it makes me so happy to make something I feel confident about.
When I did start sanding, I used a sanding block, which served its purpose. However I did some fiddling around and I found the BEST sanding tool of all time. 7-sided nail buffers (like this one here)!! I used the buffing and shining sides of it for a lovely marble-like finish. I got that clay sanded so smoothly, that you could nearly see your own reflection in it.
After I sanded it to my liking, I started on the silicone mold!
On another note, I really screwed up with the plaster bandages. I completely forgot to split it into sections so I could break it apart, so I ended up using a knife to cut the plaster. Unfortunately in the process I cut through the silicone and cut off the tip of the nose because the silicone was too thin. I was able to repair it, but hopefully it'll hold up!
So I will be starting on the fiberglass today. I went to the hardware store and spent a small fortune on materials so it better serve me well, ha!

Fledgling is thrilled to have provided early funding for the Escape Fire campaign and to have supported, with our funding partners, some of their targeted screenings. We congratulate the team on additional support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation that has allowed them to continue to reach and engage key stakeholders in transforming our healthcare system.
Even as they continue their work, we can share some key lessons from their campaign. Namely, the importance of using each screening opportunity to advance the campaign's core goals and the power of strategic partnerships to help reach and engage professionals working within a system that needs to change.
WHAT'S THE STORY?
Escape Fire presents a comprehensive look at the broken U.S. healthcare system. It focuses not only on the problems and perverse incentives of our current system but highlights solutions and those who are working for change as well as poignant stories of patients working toward health. In the film, we see physicians taking a different approach, corporate leaders experimenting with new programs that focus on prevention, and the U.S. military testing pain management strategies to reduce reliance on pharmaceuticals. By focusing on these change agents, viewers see that we all have a role to play in changing our healthcare system.
WHAT WERE THE GOALS?
The vision for the film and audience engagement campaign is to transform healthcare and change how the public views health and healing. With this in mind, they laid out three goals: 1. Raise awareness: Give a straightforward understanding of the underlying causes of the American healthcare crisis 2. Mobilize viewers: Grow the movement to transform healthcare with partner organizations 3. Affect change: Inspire Americans to participate in this transformation on a personal and community level The Escape Fire campaign was designed to extend and grow the dialogue across multiple platforms and move the audience from passive moviegoers to active reformers.
WHAT WAS DONE?
Escape Fire premiered at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival, where it was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize and won the Candescent Award given to one outstanding socially conscious documentary. It went on to play at numerous film festivals, earning multiple awards, and premiered in theaters in October 2012 – reaching 18 markets nationwide. The film had a national primetime broadcast on CNN in March 2013, screening several times over the course of a two-week period along with a 30-minute panel discussion led by CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta about themes in the film. The team used all of these opportunities to drive discussion and engagement both online and offline. The Escape Fire website and social media campaign is robust and action-oriented, providing opportunities for visitors to engage with the film and issues. Visitors to the site have the opportunity to create their own "First Aid Kits," which ask them to share how they would change different aspects of their own healthcare experiences. They also have the opportunity to share their own solutions, or "escape fires," for dealing with the healthcare crisis. As of October 2013, close to 3000 people have submitted their personal "escape fires".
"We wanted the website to be a place where visitors could learn more about the issues but also offer their own solutions and begin to think about what they can do as individuals to change the system." – Matthew Heineman, Director
Importantly, the campaign also focused on offline engagement – organizing hundreds of community screenings. At this point, they have done over 750 non-theatrical community screenings. They provided support to screening organizers to help them create post-screening panel discussions and encourage issue-centered engagement. For example, like the online engagement, event attendees were asked to create "First Aid Kits" or describe their own "escape fire", providing anyone who watched the film with an opportunity for action that required them to think about and develop possible solutions. These were then shared more broadly using social media. The campaign also leveraged their national broadcast, working with groups that could help them reach and engage their key stakeholders groups. For example, the campaign partnered with the National Student Nurses Alliance, the National League of Nurses, the American Association of Colleges of Nursing, Nurses Organization of Veteran's Affairs, and the Visiting Nursing Services of New York to spread the word about the broadcast to the nursing community. These partners helped promote the event to their membership, co-wrote a nursing-focused insert for the screening discussion guide and aided in developing a national call-to-action. Using these specially designed tool kits and discussion prompts, nurses came together in small groups to facilitate conversations after the film and shared thoughts with others in their community and across the country. The campaign also targeted policy makers, military leaders and current and future healthcare providers. To reach healthcare students and future providers, the team facilitated two national screening events. In advance of the film's theatrical release, Escape Fire organized a Fall 2012 "kick-off tour" that included simultaneous screenings at 60 medical schools for approximately 5,600 students, faculty, and community members around the country. In Spring 2013, the campaign partnered with the American Public Health Association and screened the film at 46 locations to roughly 2,500 students and professionals during National Public Health Week. To reach military providers, the Escape Fire campaign worked with the Veterans Health Administration Office of Patient Centered Care and Cultural Transformation to create a 30-minute version of the film that was live-streamed simultaneously for nearly 1,000 leaders at all 152 VA medical centers. Additionally, the film screened at the Pentagon for top military leaders, hosted by the U.S. Army Surgeon General. The campaign also worked to reach policy makers, encouraging members of Congress to see the film. In some cases, they sent copies to key members. Perhaps most intriguing, the campaign came up with a terrific way to reach and engage practicing physicians and nurses in the U.S. These groups are critical to creating change, but can be difficult to reach. In an unprecedented professional education opportunity, through a partnership with the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP), watching Escape Fire qualifies for continuing medical education (CME) credits. The AAFP is one of the largest national medical organizations, representing 110,600 family physicians, family medicine residents, and medical students nationwide. And, CME credits from the AAFP can translate via reciprocity into American Medical Association (AMA) Category 1 credits. By accrediting the film through AAFP, the campaign is able to offer CME credits to the largest possible number of physicians. To receive credit, physicians and other healthcare practitioners watch the film and then fill out a short survey hosted on the Escape Fire website. Building on this model, the campaign also partnered with Nurse.com to make Continuing Nursing Education (CNE) credits available to over 8 million nurses in the U.S. as well as continuing education credits for other groups such as dietitians, occupational therapists and health educators. In the first two weeks, more than 1,000 nurses participated in this opportunity – and the number continues to grow.
WHAT WAS ACHIEVED?
Even before its scheduled Capitol Hill screening, Escape Fire had an impact on national policy. After seeing the film, Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) was inspired to introduce an amendment to the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act, authorizing the Department of Veterans Affairs to intervene to prevent over-medication and suicide stemming from soldiers' access to prescription drugs. Senator Blumenthal also contacted the VA's Office of Patient Centered Care and Cultural Transformation and asked what Congress could do to help them. He also co-hosted with Senator John McCain (R-AZ) a Capital Hill Screening of Escape Fire to engage more leaders in the conversation. The VA also sees Escape Fire as valuable to their efforts to improve care. They have stated that moving in a new direction will require a culture change and that this process will ultimately take years – but they see Escape Fire as a tool that can help push this transformation forward immediately.
"Our partners have actively shaped our work throughout this campaign, and we've depended on them to give Escape Fire the largest possible impact each step of the way." – Rebecca Stern, Outreach Coordinator
The film has successfully reached and engaged practicing and future physicians and other health professionals who are critical players in changing our healthcare system. The Fall 2012 Kick Off Tour reached thousands of medical students, and the second tour reached even more medical schools with over 90 screenings nationwide in September 2013. Several viewers indicated that they will use the film in their ongoing course work. As one educator stated: "This movie has become part of my curriculum and I would recommend this documentary to everyone. It is a MUST SEE." Others focused on how it inspired medical students. As the organizer at Florida International School of Medicine shared, "Many found that [Escape Fire] reminded them why they want to go into the medical profession and also that there is hope for the future with individuals of the mindset of those in the film." In addition, hundreds of practicing physicians have claimed CME credit made available through AAFP. As of September 20th, 2013 650 physicians had claimed CME credits, and 97% of those stated that this activity supported improvement in healthcare.
The film reached a broad audience through its release in theaters and national broadcasts on CNN. An estimated 2 million people tuned in for the primetime broadcasts alone. Importantly, almost 120,000 people have engaged with the Escape Fire website and 10,000 took action via the First Aid Kit. This activity produced a huge impact online – Escape Fire's twitter hashtag, #rescuehealthcare, trended in the U.S. During the week of the CNN broadcast, they had roughly 75 million impressions of #rescuehealthcare and "@escapefire" on Facebook and Twitter. What is impressive about what they have achieved to date is their ability to reach and engage key stakeholder groups. As we all know, the healthcare system is complex and the change process can be long and difficult to measure. We know this process will require involvement from individuals and community groups in the general public, but also policy makers and healthcare providers, particularly doctors and nurses. The Escape Fire campaign has successfully reached all of these groups and has provided opportunities for thoughtful action and engagement. "Our partners have actively shaped our work throughout this campaign, and we've depended on them to give Escape Fire the largest possible impact each step of the way." – Rebecca Stern
WHAT CAN WE LEARN?
The Escape Fire project offers several key lessons. It underscores how understanding your target audiences can help prioritize campaign activities. It also shows the importance of leveraging each distribution opportunity for action, and perhaps most importantly it demonstrates the power of mutually beneficial partnerships. The Escape Fire team remained focused on their goals and developed key partnerships to help them reach and engage critical stakeholder groups. They relied on these partnerships – with the military, with medical schools, and with provider organizations – to help them organize targeted community screening campaigns and provided guidance and support so that these screenings were maximized and the audience members engaged in thoughtful discussions. Likewise, they recognized the terrific opportunity that a national CNN broadcast presented and worked with nursing organizations to develop materials that were targeted and relevant to nurses. And it was through a partnership with the American Public Health Association that they were able to reach the public health community. The Escape Fire team also recognized that busy physicians and other clinical providers were critical, but difficult, to reach. The accreditation of the film for CME was an innovative way to reach this audience. They provided an incentive for physicians, nurses and others to watch the film and engage with the issues. This is an interesting model that other campaigns that seek to reach busy professionals should explore.

All That Heaven Allows
Director: Douglas Sirk	Run Time: 89 min. Format: DCP	Rating: NR	Release Year: 1955
Starring: Jane Wyman, Rock Hudson, Conrad Nagel, Agnes Moorehead, Virginia Grey, Gloria Talbott
This heartbreakingly beautiful indictment of 1950s American mores by Douglas Sirk follows the blossoming love between a well-off widow (Jane Wyman) and her handsome and earthy younger gardener (Rock Hudson). When their romance prompts the scorn of her children and country club friends, she must decide whether to pursue her own happiness or carry on a lonely, hemmed-in existence for the sake of the approval of others. With the help of ace cinematographer Russell Metty, Sirk imbues nearly every shot with a vivid and distinct emotional tenor. A profoundly felt film about class and conformity in small-town America, All That Heaven Allows is a pinnacle of expressionistic Hollywood melodrama.


An ASL program "Mother Goose" is basically a collection of nursery rhymes and stories for infants, toddlers, and children to help with language acquisition and literacy development in signed language.
In speech, rhymes come with the repetitions of sounds in words. In sign language, rhymes are done with the repetitions of visues in signed words (e.g. handshapes, movements, etc.).
The unmarked "5" handshape is the earliest phonological unit of ASL that appears in infants' early linguistic development in sign language. A video below shows an example of the ASL nursery rhymes produced by Canadian ASL native signers.
The "5" handshape is repeated in all ASL words of animals before and after peek-a-boo: lion, tiger, bear, monkey, and spider.
And, the location parameter of each of these ASL words of animals is in the order from the top (head) to the waist level.
Baby may enjoy this rhyme especially with the anticipation of the last animal that will tickle her/him.
As the two months old baby Juli was listening, I was improvising a nice little ASL poem with similes between "blue eyes" and "blue sky", and between "white glowing lights in the eyes" and "sunshine in the blue sky" (ASL rhymes also). And, the "black bird flying" in circle.
Taking an advantage of the visual-spatial nature in sign language, I can transform an imagination into reality. For example, I produced in ASL: a black bird flies in large circle in the sky and the circle becomes smaller and smaller as it gets closer and closer to the listener.
This intactile imagination transformed into a tactile experience of physical touch through ASL. Baby at this stage is fascinated by spirals and by coincidence I could incorporate this shape into language.
You can compose your own ASL nursery rhymes using some ASL words with the same handshapes.

Humor Paranormal & Ghosts
3 Famous Poltergeist Cases That Will Creep You Out
Ralf Nau/Stone/Getty Images
Stephen Wagner
Chairs move about by themselves. Walls shake from loud, unexplained banging. Water drips from a ceiling. Hairbrushes disappear for days, only to reappear in their place on the dresser. These are some of the classic symptoms of a poltergeist haunting. From the German for "noisy ghost," a poltergeist refers to phenomena usually credited to mischievous spirits or ghosts and are characterized by psychokinesis or other physical manifestations. Although ghosts may sometimes be involved, most poltergeist incidents are a kind of psychic phenomena, usually centered around a living "agent."
Cases have been cited almost since the beginning of recorded history. Three famous cases have taken place in the 20th century, gaining notoriety, perhaps, because they have been extensively investigated, reported, and in some cases even photographed and videotaped.
The Thorton Health Poltergeist
In the 1970s, in Thornton Heath, England, a family was tormented by poltergeist phenomena that started one August night when they were woken in the middle of the night by a blaring bedside radio that had somehow turned itself on — tuned to a foreign-language station. This was the beginning of a string of events that lasted nearly four years.
A lampshade repeatedly was knocked to the floor by unaided hands. During the Christmas season of 1972, an ornament was hurled across the room, smashing into the husband's forehead. "As he flopped into an armchair," reports Haunted Croydon, "the Christmas tree began to shake violently. Come the New Year and there were footsteps in the bedroom when there was no one there, and one night the couple's son awoke to find a man in old fashioned dress staring threateningly at him. The family's fear grew when, as they entertained friends one night, there was a loud knocking at the front door, the living room door was then flung open and all the house's lights came on."
Having the house blessed failed to rid the house of the phenomena. "Objects flew through the air, loud noises were heard and the family would sometimes hear a noise which suggested some large piece of furniture... had crashed to the floor. When they went to investigate, nothing would be disturbed."
A medium who was consulted told the family that the house was haunted by a farmer of the name Chatterton, who considered the family trespassers on his property. An investigation bore out the fact that Chatterton had indeed lived in the house in the mid-18th century. "Chatterton's wife now joined in causing mayhem, and often the tenant's wife would be followed up the stairs at night by an elderly gray-haired woman wearing a pinafore and with her hair tied back in a bun. If looked at, she would disappear back into the shadows. The family even reported seeing the farmer appear on their television screens, wearing a black jacket with wide, pointed lapels, high-necked shirt, and black cravat."
After the family moved out of the house, the poltergeist activity ceased, and none have been reported by subsequent residents.
The Enfield Poltergeist Case
Another English ghost — this one in Enfield in North London — made headlines in 1977. The strange activity seemed to center around the daughter of Peggy Harper, a divorcee in her mid-40s. Again, it started on an August night. "Late at night," An Urban Ghost Story relates, "Janet, aged 11 and her brother Pete, aged 10, complained that their beds were 'jolting up and down and going all funny.' As soon as Mrs. Harper got to the room, the movements had stopped — as far as she was concerned her kids were making it all up."
But things got progressively more bizarre from there. Shuffling noises and knocks on the wall were followed by a heavy chest of drawers sliding by itself across the floor. Mrs. Harper promptly got her children out of the house and sought the assistance of a neighbor. "The neighbors searched the house and garden but found no one. Soon they also heard the knocks on the walls which continued at spaced out intervals. At 11 p.m. they called the police, who heard the knocks, one officer even saw a chair inexplicably move across the floor, and later signed a written statement to confirm the events."
Several people were witness to the events that occurred in the following days: Lego bricks and marbles were thrown around the house and were often hot to the touch. In September of that year, Maurice Grosse of the Society for Psychical Research came to investigate. "Grosse claims that he experienced the strange happenings — first a marble was thrown at him from an unseen hand, he saw doors open and close by themselves, and claimed to feel a sudden breeze that seemed to move up from his feet to his head."
Grosse was later joined in the investigation by writer Guy Lyon Playfair, and together they studied the case for two years. "The knocking on walls and floors became an almost nightly occurrence, furniture slid across the floor and was thrown down the stairs, drawers were wrenched out of dressing tables. Toys and other objects would fly across the room, bedclothes would be pulled off, water was found in mysterious puddles on the floors, there were outbreaks of fire followed by their inexplicable extinguishing."
The case became decidedly unnerving when the spirits revealed themselves — through Janet. Speaking in a deep, gravely voice, the spirit announced that his name was Bill and had died in the house — a fact that has been verified. The voices and the phenomenon have been recorded on tape and film, and Playfair has written a book about the case called This House is Haunted.
Despite the documentation, however, much controversy surrounds the case. Skeptics claim that the case is nothing more than the work of a very clever and mischievous girl — Janet. The poltergeist activity always stopped when she was watched closely, and when she was taken to a hospital for several days to be tested for physical or mental abnormality, the phenomena ceased in the house. Some researchers believe that Janet taught herself to speak in the strange male voice and that photos of her levitating in her bedroom merely caught her jumping off her bed. Was this poltergeist case just the result of an attention-seeking 11-year-old?
The Danny Poltergeist Case
In 1998, Jane Fishman, a reporter for the Savannah Morning News, began a series of articles about a possibly haunted antique bed in the home of Al Cobb of Savannah, Georgia. Cobb bought the vintage late-1800s bed at an auction as a Christmas present for his 14-year-old son, Jason — a purchase he later regretted.
"Three nights later," Fishman reported, "Jason told his parents he felt as if someone had planted elbows on his pillow and was watching him and breathing cold air down the back of his neck. He felt sick. The next night he noticed the photo of his deceased grandparents on his wicker nightstand flipped down. So he righted it. The next day, the photo was facing down again.
Later that morning, after leaving his room for breakfast, he returned and found in the middle of his bed two Beanie Babies — the zebra and the tiger — next to a conch shell, a dinosaur made of shells and a plaster toucan bird. That got his parents' — and his twin brother, Lee's — attention. Trying to make sense of the irrational, Al called out, 'Do we have a Casper here? Tell me your name and how old you are.' Then he left some lined composition paper and crayons and, with his family, walked out of the room. In 15 minutes they returned and found written vertically in large block childlike letters, 'Danny, 7.'"
With his family out of the house, Al Cobb decided to continue trying to communicate with the spirit of Danny. With the same kind of notes, Danny indicated that his mother had died in that bed in 1899 and that he wanted to stay with the bed. He also made it clear that he didn't want anyone else sleeping in it. "The same day they found a note reading, 'No one sleep in bed,' Jason, who had moved out of the room, decided to stretch out and pretend to take a nap. That, says Al, was a mistake. 'I doubled back in the room to pick up my clothes,' remembers Jason, 'when this terra cotta head that had been hanging on the wall came flying through the room, just missing me before it smashed on the closet door.'"
"No one really knows," Fishman writes in her second installment, "who — or what — is leaving the copious notes, moving the furniture, opening the kitchen drawers, setting the dining room table, flipping over the chairs, lighting the candles, arranging the posters to spell out a person's name, Jill, then hanging the finished product on a bedroom wall. Jason also spoke of other spirits: 'Uncle Sam,' who had come to reclaim his daughter he said was buried under the house; 'Gracie,' a young girl whose sculpture sits in Bonaventure Cemetery; and 'Jill,' a young woman who left a number of handwritten messages, among them one inviting the Cobbs to a party in their living room."
Parapsychologist Andrew Nichols, head of the Florida Society for Parapsychological Research, investigated the case. "What happened at the Cobbs," he told Fishman, "more specifically to Jason — would have happened without 'Danny,' or the bed. It was the electromagnetic energy of the wall — that Jason started sleeping next to when they moved the bed there — that charged a psychic ability that the boy already had."

As could be seen in the European instance, such unification inevitably includes some imposition of legislation. Indeed, the existence of a global economic order promotes some similarities in all legal guidelines governing financial transactions. For instance, Dezalay and Garth describe the emergence of a cadre of international business arbitrators and their creation of a international authorized subject with its personal networks, hierachical relationships, expertise, and guidelines.
In distinction to frequent regulation, civil legislation is a part of the continental European tradition relationship again to Roman legislation. There is a robust affiliation between what we usually consider as moral habits and what the laws require and supply. For instance, contract regulation upholds society"™s sense that promises""in general""should be saved. The legislation supplies treatments for damaged promises (in breach of contract circumstances) however not for all broken promises; some excuses are accepted when it might be affordable to take action.
Lawyers want to have the ability to find these laws and regulations which apply to a particular matter, in order to provide the appropriate legal recommendation for their clients. Part-time jobs or summer internships in regulation corporations, government companies, and company authorized departments present priceless expertise. Some smaller corporations, authorities agencies, and public-interest organizations could hire students as summer associates after they've accomplished their first yr at law school.

Explore Rome and Visit the Macuteo Obelisk! A New Ability Guidebook!
It is always fun when I get a new Ability Guidebook finished! I am inspired because I have had a volunteer step forward to translate the books into Italian! You cannot Imagine how exciting it was to get that email! I am writing these books for Italy knowing that only a few English speaking tourists might ever need them.
But I knew that once the books were in English, if I could find someone to translate, they could then be a valuable tool for people with autism who live in, or who are visiting Rome.
My hope is that I will inspire some people in Italy to step forward and make some books of their own! Even now my friend Bill Pierce is visiting Vienna taking pictures to create some additional Ability Guidebooks. Some of Sam Sennott's students at Portland State University chose to make a book instead of doing a final paper. These are more awesome people stepping up to help create a permanant library of supports for people with autism! (And a support for teachers who are taking their younger students on field trips to these important cultural destinations). I am thrilled to have Bill join me in this project and the students of PSU as well!
If anyone has decent pictures of the Vatican Museum entry I sure could use them….mine turned out pretty poorly.

An Ability Guidebook for Rome! I Am Going To The Minerveo Obelisk!
This is a very simple Guidebook on how to visit the Minerveo Obelisk near the Pantheon in Rome. Most tourists would visit the Pantheon and then wander by the Piazza della Minerva to see Bernini's elephant with the ancient Egyptian Minerveo Obelisk mounted on top. For our tourists with autism (or Italian kids on a field trip) they might need a more simple outing for the first attempt.
The trip to see the Pantheon and the trip to see the Minerveo Obelisk are the same. The obelisk, however, can be seen without entering a building and without too much difficulty. The visit can be done in a taxi to simplify it even more if the need be. If the visit to the Minerveo goes well, the next visit could be to the Macuteo Obelisk or to the Pantheon itself. Once the stress of the trip is out of the way, each additional trip becomes easier and easier.

"I Am Going To The Pantheon!" A new Ability Guidebook for peeps with autism.
I am hoping to complete quite a few books from my trip to Italy. In the making I have books on the Arch of Constantine, The Roman Forum, The Vatican Museum and more!
It is my hope that people who speak other languages will step up and translate some of the books into their own language. This book, for instance, may be of great assistance to an English speaker with autism who is visiting the Pantheon. I know that only a handful of people might need such a support. But I am more than happy to make this for a handful of people. In my classroom I was making these for one person in particular at first. I saw how much it changed their world and so I am willing to keep creating the books in the hopes that it will open up someone's world. I want there to be a tourist, somewhere, who needs this book.
But, honestly, what I am truly hoping to do is inspire others. I'm hoping and Italian speaker will see this and translate it. THEN we have a whole different audience. In Italian this book becomes and opportunity for every person with autism in Italy. This book might mean the difference of some kid who is neuro-diverse getting to go on a field trip with the rest of his class. In Italian, this book can be a tool for every kindergarten or first grade teacher taking their class to the Pantheon.
And then if we ad German and Dutch, French and maybe Hungarian, then we are opening up a world. And those translators might be enlightened and encouraged to create their own books for their own city's. My friend Florian from Passau is translating some now into German. Mike has translated several into Spanish. There are now books for Oregon and Washington, D.C., Peru, Italy and Greece.
I'm trying to make the world a bigger place for people with autism. I think it is working!Ability Guidebook_ I Am Going To The Pantheon!

Hello! I am very excited to announce that I have finished another Ability Guidebook! These "guidebooks" are basic instructions on how to visit community destinations and events. I began writing these books to assist my own students with autism in attending field trips but I realized that I could be doing so much more.
In 2015 I had the amazing honor of being named an National Education Association Foundation Global Fellow. Through this program I was sent to Peru as an ambassador for American educators. I'm the first special education teacher from Oregon to be named a Global Fellow and the trip to Peru gave me a chance to do what I do best: support people with special needs. From that trip came my first international Ability Guidebook "I'm Going to the Museo de Inka!" I'm absolutely grateful to the NEA Foundation for giving me the opportunity to share this project with another country.
In 2015 I also had the joy of going on my honeymoon and from that trip will come the next round of international guidebooks. I have realized that I can make books whenever I visit a new city. I can show the teachers and Autism Specialists around the world of a new and better way to support our students. If our students aren't out participating in the real world then we haven't succeeded in our jobs. I want to make sure that I have done everything I can to help.
I am thrilled to say the first honeymoon book is finished! I know that a book like this would have helped my own students visit the Acropolis and I hope it will help other people as well.
I am also hoping to find people to translate books into their native languages. If you can translate this into Greek or any other language, get in touch!
Ability Guidebook_ I Am Going To The Parthenon!
People with autism often have difficulty facing new situations. That is why I teamed up with the Port of Portland to create "Let's Fly, A Photo Guidebook Tour Through Portland International Airport." It is a step-by-step guide on what to expect when you use the Portland Airport.
I want my students to have a bigger world. Supports like these can make that happen.


This recipe is time consuming to make, but worth the effort. The rolls freeze well when wrapped securely with foil. You will have enough to feed an Army, but it will disappear quickly!
Beat butter, 2 cups sugar, and egg yolks. Dissolve yeast in 4 cups of warm milk. Add salt. Combine with flour and knead until dough is no longer sticky. Cut into 14 equal pieces. Place on floured wax paper and cover with tea towels, let rise while making nut filling.
Heat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Combine honey, 3 1/4 cups hot milk, 3 1/2 cups white sugar, egg whites and ground walnuts.
Roll out one piece of dough into a large rectangle about 3/4 inch thick and spread with about 1 1/4 cups filling. Roll up jellyroll fashion and place on cookie sheet, seam side down. Brush with an egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon cold water). Repeat with remaining dough. You may bake 2 rolls on a sheet. Bake 35 minutes.

A: The clinic is open Monday thru Friday from 9am to 5pm. The phones are on service from 12pm - 2pm. During that time you can leave a general message for the office staff or page Dr. Tran.
Q: What is your refill policy?
A: Refill requests are processed Monday thru Friday. Please allow up to 72 hours for your request to be answered. Please keep in mind that your refills often run out because you are due to be seen by the doctor. When running low on your medication be sure to check the amount of refills left on the bottle. You should contact the office or your pharmacy about refills while you still have enough medication to last you 3-5 days.
Recently the regulations have changed on refilling controlled substances, ex. pain medication, sleeping aids, ADHD medications. Providers are not allowed to issue multiple refills for these prescriptions. Patients will be advised to schedule office visits for refills to be issued. Please schedule appointments in advance to make sure your refill is not delayed.
Q: What should I do if I got to the hospital or skilled nursing facility?
A: If you go to the hospital be sure to advise the attending physician that we are your primary care provider. You or a family member should call our office when you are hospitalized so we can coordinate your care and keep informed on your health condition. Contact as soon as your are discharged to schedule your follow up appointment.
If you are transferred to a skilled nursing facility after your hospitalization it is important that you call and notify our office. For non-HMO patients, we are able to follow you at the skilled nursing home and manage your care. Often times our patients will get transferred to a SNF and may be auto-assigned to a different doctor. Always inform the nursing home that you want Roger Tran to be your attending physician and call our office ASAP.
Q: How do I establish care at your office and request you be assigned as my Primary Care Provider?
A: Please call our office at 949-305-2660 to make an appointment. If your insurance plan is an HMO ex. SCAN, Secure Horizons, One Care through Monarch or other IPA we will need to be assigned as your PCP prior to the appointment. Traditional Medicare does not require a PCP assignment.
We accept most PPO plans; call your insurance to confirm we are in-network for your plan. With recent changes in healthcare some insurance plan packages have limited networks and we may be in-network for some packages and out-of-network on others.

Two people have been taken to Derriford Hospital after a head-on collision between two cars earlier this evening.
The crash happened on the A388 between Callington and Kelly Bray at about 5pm.
Four people trapped in the two cars, including a child, were freed in a extensive rescue operation by all three emergency services.
The air ambulance was seen landing near to the crash site and flying off again, taking at least one of the injured passengers to Derriford.
A force incident manager for Devon and Cornwall Police has now confirmed two people sustained "serious injuries" in the crash and are at Plymouth's main hospital.
The road is closed while investigation work takes place.
The collision, which saw everyone involved injured, happened between Southern Road and Station Road, near to the allotments.
Police won't reveal the vehicles involved in the collision due to its serious nature, but say a formal press release is expected to be published online tonight or tomorrow morning.
Both sides of the road were blocked after the crash, and police have now closed the road entirely and put diversions in place.
The same police spokeswoman later confirmed four people were rescued from the vehicles involved, and suggested there was at least one person seriously injured.
Now the force incident manager has confirmed two people are in hospital with serious injuries. However it is not known if the casualties' injuries are life-threatening or life-changing.
On a Facebook traffic alert page for the Callington area, one person said there was also a dog in one of the cars at the time of the crash which escaped unharmed.
This has not been confirmed by the police.

Art Gallery Under Fire For ISIS-Style Trump Beheading
by JohnMcTernan · July 18, 2018
Romans 1:28-30 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
The Hard Left rhetoric is getting worse and the murdering spirit is really coming to the surface. Sin has taken over their minds, and they are easily used by satan. We can watch their insanity growing by the week.
This is an example for all of us to what happens when God turns people over to a reprobate mind.
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Hard Left Murdering Spirit
"'F*ck Trump': Art Gallery Under Fire For ISIS-Style Trump Beheading"
"An art gallery in Portland is being blasted online for prominently displaying an image of President Donald Trump being decapitated.
As part of their "Fuck you Mr. President" exhibit held on July 13, One Grand Gallery showed art from leftists still suffering Trump derangement syndrome more than 18 months after his inauguration. One image displayed on a window facing SE 10th Avenue depicts a brutal ISIS-style decapitation of Trump."
Deep State Being Exposed
"Putin Claims U.S. Intelligence Agents Funneled $400 Million To Clinton Campaign" I learned a lot about the deep state from reading this article. What goes on behind the scenes is astonishing. You will be amazed after reading this article. Hillary and deep state is deeper then we can image.
Revelation 11:15 And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
"Vladimir Putin made a bombshell claim during Monday's joint press conference with President Trump in Helsinki, Finland, when the Russian President said some $400 million in illegally earned profits was funneled to the Clinton campaign by associates of American-born British financier Bill Browder – at one time the largest foreign portfolio investors in Russia. The scheme involved members of the U.S. intelligence community, said Putin, who he said "accompanied and guided these transactions."
Browder made billions in Russia during the 90's. In December, a Moscow court sentenced Browder in absentia to nine years in prison for tax fraud, while he was also found guilty of tax evasion in a separate 2013 case. Putin accused Browder's associates of illegally earning over than $1.5 billion without paying Russian taxes, before sending $400 million to Clinton."
A Case of Arkanicide
"Anthony Bourdain slammed Hillary Clinton and 'gropey, disgusting' Bill Clinton in newly released interview" I know nothing about Bourdain, so his suicide was not note worthy; however, now their is a Clinton connection! Could this be yet another case of Arkancide staring right at us?
"In an interview, published more than a month after his death, Anthony Bourdain called former President Bill Clinton a "gropey, grabby disgusting" person and slammed the Clintons for how they handled the Monica Lewinsky scandal.
The celebrity chef and "Parts Unknown" host, who hanged himself in a French hotel in June, sat down with journalist Maria Bustillos from the magazine Popula before his death. The sit-down was published on Sunday.
Bourdain, one of the most outspoken supporters of the #MeToo movement, told the magazine it was shameful how the Clintons handled the scandal involving Lewinsky."
Israel vs Hamas
"Hamas plans to attack Israel with 'exploding drones'"Hamas is using low tech to attack Israel, but it appears that the terrorist group is about to use high tech.
I believe the next war between Israel and Hamas will be the last for Hamas.
"Hamas has been diverting resources intended for civilian development in Gaza to enhance its military capabilities, including a growing drone program.
Now, with arson-based tactics such as incendiary kites already in use, Israeli defense officials believe Hamas wants to deploy exploding drones to extend its reach further into the country, reports the Investigative Project on Terrorism.
Israel held an emergency cabinet session Sunday after terrorists launched an estimated 200 missiles at Israeli communities on the border. Israel's military responded by hitting dozens of Hamas targets. According to Palestinian media reports, Israel also deployed three drones to strike Palestinians launching incendiary kites and balloons, wounding three terrorists."
"Flaming balloon from Gaza lands in preschool near children at play" Hamas shows no letup, so the likelihood of a war is very high.
Iran is behind this and Israel knows it. Israel will only let these attacks go so far and then war.
"A balloon from Gaza carrying flaming materials landed in the yard of a preschool in an Israeli community near the border Tuesday as children played outside. A teacher managed to get the children inside and there were no injuries.
"We went out to the yard with the kids in the afternoon to play," teacher Batsheva Baruchi told Channel 10 news. "After five minutes something burning and smoking fell on us from the sky. I immediately understood it was an incendiary balloon."
Baruchi said she and other workers at the school in the Sdot Negev Regional Council herded the children into a safe room. "We were saved," she said. "What if it had fallen next to one of the children?"
"SC Gov. Henry McMaster Bans Abortion Providers from Medicaid Funds" This is wonderful news. May God bless the governor and the State of South Carolina!
"South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster has banned abortion providers from the list of his state's Medicaid providers. In an executive order Friday, the Republican governor noted, "The preservation of life is the ultimate right to be protected and necessarily includes the life of unborn children," and that "the payment of taxpayer funds to abortion clinics, for any purpose, results in the subsidy of abortion and the denial of the right to life."
Additionally, South Carolina "also recognizes that the availability of women's health and family planning services is important in providing for healthy families and children," the order says, and that the state's health agency "expends taxpayer dollars to pay for health care services, including family planning services."
This is a great meme showing how presidents, Hillary and Schumer were buddies with Putin.
The Hard Left in America now are having a collective mental breakdown. They can't stop Trump and his agenda, so they are mentally breaking down right in front of our eyes. There are millions of them.
I often said these were weak minded people, and I think you clearly see it. The problem is they might start resorting to serious violence against the president and us. They really believe the own lies and are completely living in a delusion.
This is a wonderful meme. It touched my heart because this is exactly what is needed after the Constitution being under attack for decades by the Hard Left.
I like that "We the People" is so bold.
