It's already been a month since we released the all-new EE Mobile. Equipped with a focused feature set, enhanced performance capabilities, and a standardized user experience, EE Mobile's emphasis on bringing users the essentials has led to an overwhelmingly positive welcome from the Experts Exchange community.
Thanks so much to everyone who has taken the time to provide such valuable feedback. Please, keep it coming!
Since EE Mobile went live, the team has been looking to build on that success.
"Stay tuned for iterative mobile releases as we re-introduce familiar full site tools and experiences to your mobile devices," promised EE Creative Lead Peter Uzzi in a discussion earlier last month.
Without a hitch, our team has already begun to make good on that promise, releasing a major mobile update just last week.
Most notably, that release included a completely mobile-optimized experience for our logged-in users, which includes both sharing and bookmarking features, as well as the ability for users to begin monitoring Questions and Articles. The EE Mobile update also included the welcome addition of user My Topics favorites to the mobile user's Workspace and user Article recent activity.
In the meantime, if you haven't yet had a chance to check out the new EE Mobile, now's the time to test it out on your smartphone or tablet. In fact, if you do it before August 10th, it might even earn you a new iPhone accessory pack.

غیبت خدا: مطالعاتی در رابطه دین و فلسفه [کتاب انگلیسی]
Batnitzky, Leora;Buber, Martin
عنوان دیگر : Eclipse of God: Studies in the Relation Between Religion and Philosophy
Princeton University Press ، 2016
"biblical in origin, the expression "eclipse of god" refers to the jewish concept of 'hester panim', the act of god concealing his face as a way of punishing his disobedient subjects. though this idea is deeply troubling for many people, in this book martin buber uses the expression hopefully — for a hiding god is also a god who can be found. first published in 1952, 'eclipse of god' is a collection of nine essays concerning the relationship between religion and philosophy. the book features buber's critique of the thematically interconnected—yet diverse—perspectives of søren kierkegaard, hermann cohen, c. g. jung, martin heidegger, and other prominent modern thinkers. buber deconstructs their philosophical conceptions of god and explains why religion needs philosophy to interpret what is authentic in spiritual encounters. he elucidates the religious implications of the i-thou, or dialogical relationship, and explains how the exclusive focus on scientific knowledge in the modern world blocks the possibility of a personal relationship with god. featuring a new introduction by leora batnitzky, 'eclipse of god' offers a glimpse into the mind of one of the modern world's greatest jewish thinkers."--back cover.;prelude: report on two talks -- religion and reality -- religion and philosophy -- the love of god and the idea of deity -- religioun and modern thinking -- religion and ethics -- on the suspension of the ethical -- god and the spirit of man -- supplement: reply to c.g. jung.

I shall return to my studio forthwith, but first, let me take a selfie.
There's absolutely zero balance because selling yourself is a full time job and if you put enough effort into the process to make a difference, you're left without time or creative energy to achieve your primary objective. Or maybe I just spend too much time on the Internet. I can't dispute the fact that I'm getting more traffic than ever, mostly from Reddit (but obviously getting Reddit traffic boosts your reputation with Facebook and Google) but I'm spending less and less time producing content…ah…I mean, making art. Dragon Comics are great but they don't really move me forward from a creative standpoint. They're more of a standby.
Well, tomorrow I'll start on my Halloween bulletin board. That should cheer me up and possibly even inspire me. Plus, high quality content.
I also have to turn in a listicle and 11 book reviews by tomorrow night. I'm sure I'll have time to accomplish all of that in between making lunch for The Man and hanging out with the Misseses Kitty.

Art supplies are expensive. Found objects are not.
Owning a flatbed scanner and having the ability to make convenient facsimiles of 2-dimensional drawings is great, but admittedly, I find the actual act of scanning pages so annoying that tonight I spent and hour constructing a mandala out of rose petals, almonds, glass stones, the spent casings from a nail gun, and plastic Buddha-shaped toothpicks instead of 2 minutes scanning an old design.
My object choices please me. I considered other object, like pennies, quarters, screws, nails (we are doing some work on the front hall), spent glow bracelets, silverware, and cashews, but this feels right. The little rainbow heart in the bottom right is something I made in my Trickster's Hat period, out of leftover bits of construction paper from a bulletin board. I thought if I started doing more of these, making them more complex, that could be like a signature.
I also thought that what I really want to do a 3-d mandala out of is M&Ms. Well, the Candy Year* is about to begin, so it could happen.
The first cold of autumns appears to be upon, which is wholly unfair, considering it was 95 degrees today. I am not one of those white girl who pumpkin spices everything and loves autumn (regular readers of this blog know I am, in fact, a blue dragon). I freaking *hate* autumn. The changing of the seasons from summer to not-summer depresses me. Cold weather bothers my body and disturbs my spirit. The only thing that I want pumpkin spiced is pumpkin pie, and I only want maybe 1-2 slices of that in October and then however much pie I can eat Thanksgiving weekend. Anyway, I'm sneezing all over the place and really unfocused. Boo.
Today I wrote a rough draft of an article entitled "Powerful Women of Webcomics," 9 book reviews, and copy for The Man's new business website, but it doesn't feel as if I accomplished much. My only other daily accomplishments were taking a 2-mile walk and cooking a delicious dinner of gluten free macaroni and cheese, shrimp scampi, and mushroom and spinach pakoras, all from scratch, obviously. I am not so far gone as to consider making a box of Kraft dinner a daily accomplishment.
I have some more writing to do, and then I will be taking this Nyquil and, if the heavens smile upon me, passing out.
*The Candy Year refers to the period from mid-October to the end of April when people, regularly, every other month, keep giving you treats: as soon as Halloween decoration are up, it begins, with little miniatures and Hershey's Kisses everywhere; no sooner have you consumed your Halloween candy then you are called upon to help finish up this Thanksgiving pie; the pie being digested, out come the chocolate Santas, Christmas cookies, bouche Noels, and fruitcakes; all this is cleaned up over New Years, and then everyone makes New Year's resolutions to stay off the sweet stuff until Valentine's Day rolls around, when you're offered fancy chocolates and terribly candy hearts; which you still have when you're suddenly confronted with all those jelly beans and creme eggs in your Easter basket. The candy year ends when people suddenly start considering their summer plans and thinking that they might want to put on a bathing suit again.

This is my little motivational poster from yesterday when experience kicked me in the head. The really sad part is that the knowledge I took away was something I've always known and only periodically forget, which is to save your work, you fool. In my defense, that's what I was trying to do when everything crashed. This version is pretty cool, but the initial D in the original was so much more elegant. That lettering took about 90 minutes, which seems excessive. Why don't I improve at calligraphy, something I've practiced all my life.
Constructing the altar of experience was a lot of fun. That little artist's model really isn't good for much; his legs are different lengths and his his joints don't move very far and he's actually not capable of assuming many natural poses. However, he does have magnets in the little wedges that serve as his hands and feet, which has possibilities. I considered a few items he could be holding in a 3D comic before I gave him the book and let him hang upside down. He could hold, for example, a tiny metal sword and shield. The idea for the text came after the visual concept, which never happens with comics, but sometimes does for bulletin boards.
Still have a couple comic ideas kicking around, but this stiff-limbed little wooden fellow has some possibilities. Got a few things in the works.

Even thought I started today's post earlier than usual, I experienced greater than usual adversity, including a weird glitch in Photoshop that erased all the vertical images. I spent a long time repairing the database and rebuilding the thumbnails, which resulted in the return of a bunch of photos that disappeared last October, but did not fix my original issue uploading portrait oriented imaged. I settled for a landscape picture and tinkered with hand written text for a while before my everything crashed and I lost all my work. Meanwhile, my Internet is finking out so hard; pages are taking minutes to load and everything seems fubared and hopeless. So I give up for tonight, at least on this project.
Instead, please enjoy this recently returned image of the Colorado River along with some much appreciated words of wisdom.
Shot from the Navajo Bridge. We also saw 2 California condors at this site.
This is really useful advice right about now.
ETA: my Internet is so wrecked that it took 20 minutes to upload these photos. I really hope you enjoy them.

Usually the words come before the images, and this comic was no different. When I start drawing, sometimes I put the words into the file first, just so I could see how much space they would take up, but for this comic, there weren't that many words, and I was feeling very out of sorts, so I wanted to get the more complicated part out of the way before I lost my eye hand coordination and ability to focus. So, I saved the dialog for later, and once I had the black and white outlines I started to wonder if it could be equally, or possibly even more entertaining, as a silent comic.
Yeah, neither of them are as entertaining as the actual idea I really couldn't draw because I was too tired to even imagine Legolas as a rhinoceros (OK, no, that wasn't the gag, but it's a similar type of a problem) but this is the thing I created today.
At least I received both a request to reprint my article about refugees and comic (my 2nd reprint request this year) plus I found out that I have been put on the media list for Tucson Comicon. Finally! I will fulfill a lifelong dream: employing a press pass to get into an event I want to attend without paying for a ticket. Whee! My writing is really paying off. Also, I'm going to Comicon.

Those of us who have never felt quite human can only utilize the great social equalizing power of the Internet to a certain degree. After a while, you have to venture out into the world of realtime flesh interaction, where, if you screw up, you can't just delete your profile and start over. If you're fairly young, maybe you can move to another city and try again, but after a certain age, you probably own too much stuff, including real property, to make that a feasible option, and you must, instead learn how to pass yourself off as a normal person who can periodically attend crowded events and make conversation with unfamiliar people.
I would not attend as many parties if not for The Man, so I usually have the option of hiding behind him, although I sense that he would prefer not to have to drag his wife around like a leaden shadow when he wants to socialize (which is all the time).
Other strategies include offering to help the host/hostess with their duties, scrupulously reading the titles of all the books on the shelf, and making friends with the household pets. Or, you could just be a bit more aware and a little more confident. If you have access to someone's social media profile, you could browse it in advance in order to prepare yourself with topics of mutual interest. Or, you could simply be well-informed or opinionated, which will also give you many things to talk about.
Just remember, no one else can see inside your head. If you sound confident, everyone is going to perceive you as such. If you act like you're OK, the world will respond as if that's the case.

The Colorado healthcare industry is viewing VA's COVID vaccine mandate as a pilot
DENVER (KDVR) – Colorado's largest healthcare company says the U.S. Department of Veterans's new COVID-19 vaccine mandate for medical workers could be a test for the rest of the industry.
VA employees have eight weeks to be fully vaccinated. People who violate the guideline can expect disciplinary action up to and including removal from the federal service.
"We can see what happens by their experience," said Doug Farmer, president and CEO of the Colorado Health Care Association. "Do you reach 100%? Can you do that without losing employees and continue to operate and service? I think when we see this it will give comfort to other organizations to do the same. "
Recent changes by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment now require unvaccinated personnel in senior care facilities to be tested for COVID-19 daily before each shift.
"70% of nursing home workers are vaccinated and 72% in assisted living are vaccinated," said Farmer.
Farmer said while some health officials are calling for a 100% vaccination rate, there are some concerns when it comes to staffing levels.
"On the road to potential mandates, there is concern that staffing is a major problem in long-term care and healthcare in general at this point," Farmer said.

Mexico's Arturo Quintero leads PBA Scorpion Championship qualifying
Two bowlers rose from the brink of despair to elation Sunday in the Pepsi PBA Scorpion Championship presented by GoBowling.com at the National Bowling Stadium in Reno, Nev., the final round of qualifying for the PBA World Championship.
One of the two – Mexico's Arturo Quintero (pictured above) – rose from 86th place into the PBA World Championship field of 49 finalists in 40th place after leading the Scorpion round with a 242 average.
The other bowler – Boston Red Sox star Mookie Betts – followed his two worst games of the World Series with a 300 game, his first perfect game in professional competition. Although he didn't advance, Betts demonstrated he has skills beyond his baseball talents.
Also in the mix as qualifying came to an end after 40 combined games on four different animal pattern qualifying events, Sweden's Jesper Svensson (left) emerged as the PBA World Championship's leading qualifier with a 9,5,94 pinfall total, topping Australia's Jason Belmonte by 189 pins heading into the two-day, four-round World Championship cashers' round beginning Monday.
Tom Smallwood of Saginaw, Mich.; Thomas Larsen (right) of Denmark, and Ryan Ciminelli of Cheektowaga, N.Y., rounded out the top five World Championship qualifiers.
Sunday's competition on the 42-foot Scorpion lane conditioning pattern was the fourth and final animal pattern qualifying stages that are part of the GEICO PBA World Series of Bowling IX, presented by Eldorado Resorts Reno Properties, and the Go Bowling! PBA Tour.
Quintero led early and led late after bowling below expectations the three previous rounds.
"I woke up this morning and asked God for help," Quintero (left) said. "I needed to bowl really good to make the World Championship cut. The Scorpion pattern was the toughest for a lot of guys, but I made the cut in that event last year and for me, it was the easiest pattern of all. It depends on your style of bowling, and I got a new ball drilled, which I used the entire round.
Quintero's 2,420 pinfall total for 10 games in the Scorpion round topped Devin Bidwell of Wichita, Kan., by 24 pins. Bill O'Neill of Langhorne, Pa., was third with 2,386 pins followed by BJ Moore III of Greensburg, Pa., with a 2,384 total and PBA rookie Kyle Sherman with a 2,372 total.
The 16 players who advance to the Scorpion match play elimination round next Thursday included players from Mexico, England, Canada and Australia in addition to the U.S.
Making the cut were Quintero, England's PBA champions Stuart Williams (left; 8th, 2,351) and Dom Barrett (right; 11th, 2,344), Canada's Raymond Lussier, who tied Barrett for 11th place and three-time PBA Player of the Year Jason Belmonte of Australia (14th, 2,329).
Just outside the top 16 were Cristian Azcona of Puerto Rico (17th, 2,298), Zacharay Wilkins of Canada (18th, 2,297) and Daniel Fransson of Sweden (19th, 2,295), who missed the cut by 10 to 13 pins.
During the Scorpion round, Betts created the most excitement by bowling his first perfect game in one of the most prestigious professional tournaments in the world.
"I bowled the whole final five games without a 200 game," Betts (left) grinned, noting he completed his WSOB IX with games of 169, 300, 199, 198 and 193. He completed his 40 games in a tie for 158th place with a 205.6 average, far below the World Championship cut, but 15 pins better than his average in his 2015 debut in the WSOB.
Comparing his 10th frame to coming to bat in the bottom of the ninth inning of a close major league game, Betts said, "I'm much more comfortable coming to bat in a situation like that. After I threw the first strike in the 10th, I turned around and saw the crowd and I'll admit, I was pretty nervous. I just used my experience in baseball, my breathing techniques and things like that.
"Any time you shoot 150, 160 games, there's some frustration but we had four games to go. I figured I'd turn it around at some point, and it happened the next game.
"Overall I accomplished my goal this year. I bowled pretty well on all of the patterns, so I had to be happy," Betts said. "I couldn't come in here expecting to make any cuts or make any money, so I set some goals I was able to reach and I did it."
Heading into the PBA World Championship cashers' round, which will involve additional five-game rounds on each of the four animal patterns Monday and Tuesday at 1 and 5 p.m. each day, Svensson (right) not only rolled into the lead but also led a group of five international players who will represent The World in a special team match vs. the USA at 6 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 17.
The USA vs. The World team match at 6 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 17, will be live streamed on ESPN and taped for telecast on Sunday, Dec. 10, on ESPN.
Members of the USA team will be Tom Smallwood, Saginaw, Mich.; Ryan Ciminelli, Cheektowaga, N.Y.; Kyle Troup, Taylorsville, N.C.; Matt McNiel, Minneapolis, and Bill O'Neill.
Members of The World team will be Jesper Svensson, Jason Belmonte (left), Denmark's Thomas Larsen, England's Dom Barrett and Malaysia's Rafiq Ismail (right), who won a one-game roll-off over Japan's Shota Kawazoe for the fifth spot, 248-176.
All qualifying and match play elimination rounds of WSOB IX will be covered live on PBA's Xtra Frame online video streaming channel, and all competition throughout the WSOB also will be covered in game-by-game detail on pba.com's "live scoring" feature.
All times listed are Pacific Standard.

Judge Jeanine Blasts 'Corrupt' And 'Tone Deaf' Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer For Hiring Leftist Group To Help Track Coronavirus Patients
David Krayden Ottawa Bureau Chief
April 21, 2020 11:44 PM ET
Fox News host Judge Jeanine Pirro said Tuesday that Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has been a poor state leader during the coronavirus pandemic.
"This woman does not belong in office. She is corrupt, she's tone deaf and she has no idea what the people of Michigan want," Pirro told host Tucker Carlson on "Tucker Carlson Tonight."
Pirro was responding to the revelation that Whitmer had hired a leftist activist group named Great Lakes Community Engagement to assist the Michigan Department of Health to track people in the state who have become infected with the coronavirus.
She canceled the contract when the arrangement was reported by the media.
Carlson described that arrangement as evidence that "no one as mediocre as Gretchen Whitmer could become governor without the party brass backing her, and as governor she is returning the favor in spades.
Pirro agreed and noted, "Every day her poll numbers go down and she thinks she is auditioning to be vice president with Joe Biden." Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden has reportedly been considering Whitmer as a potential running mate in the 2020 presidential election. (RELATED: Petition To Recall Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer Surges Past 180K Signatures)
But the judge was also concerned about Whitmer's heavy-handed lockdown. "She's either tone-deaf or stupid because people do want to go back to work and they do want to roll up their sleeves, but she's essentially creating house arrest for them."
Pirro continued, "You can make sure that you can get alcohol and booze but don't try to buy paint for your house or grass seed. The woman is a political leftist operative and she was taking advantage until she got caught of the biggest pandemic that this country has ever seen and she has put a political operation behind the information."

The information gathering can also include data on all the family members living in a house. Pirro explained that the investigators would say, "We need to know how old are you, I'll need people are in your house, what are their emails, what are their ages?"
"And then this information is entered into a Democrat database," Pirro said. "This is the essence of a violation of public trust. It would have been paid for with taxpayer dollars and it is medical information that is supposed to protect people."
"We knew, Tucker, that she was a political operative based on the fact that, you know, as you said you can get an abortion but don't you dare try to go to church."
Whitmer has called abortion a "life sustaining" experience that is essential during the COVID-19 pandemic. (RELATED: 'Gretchen Whitmer Is A Ghoul': Tucker Wonders Why 'People Rotting In Wheelchairs' Is Allowed But Abortion Is 'Essential')

Ever since Lara was born, Zingzillas has been the soundtrack to my dinner preparations. In the days before Lara could walk, I would plonk her in her rocker to listen to the sounds of Zingzillas as I chopped vegetables or made other preparations for dinner. For the first 7 months of Lara's life, I couldn't have told you what Zingzillas looked like, but I knew every single song! This is why I think I am probably more impressed with the new Zingzillas album than Lara is!
for those who don't know, Zingzillas is a CBeebies TV program where Zak, Panzee, Tang and Drum are members of a band on a remote island. Each day they perform a 'Big Zing' where they play music of different types.
As you know, Lara loves music and the tunes from the Zingzillas album are a great excuse for her to have a bop around the living room. The great thing about Zingzillas is that the music spans all genres and cultures so you get a good mix of styles and rhythms to encourage different musical tastes in your child.
My favourite track is "Bubbly Pop" which is, pretty much as it describes and really encourages Lara to wiggle and bop. I think Lara's favourite is "Do You Digeridoo?" which is also a fast-moving track with digeridoo rumblings in the bakground. And Mr. B? I think he secretly enjoys "I've never heard a sound as absurd" which is known in the Mellow household as "The Oompah Song" which is in an alpine, euphonium, lederhosen stylee!
I think the Zingzillas album would make a wonderful christmas present for any tot as with 26 tracks, it really is very good value for money and offers hours of entertainment.

Disney Vero Beach Resort is fun family-friendly destination
Janet Begley
Special to Treasure Coast Newspapers
INDIAN RIVER COUNTY — If you're looking to combine the magic of a Disney vacation with an ode to the environment, Disney's Vero Beach Resort might be just what your family ordered.
The 21-year-old resort just received a facelift and is welcoming guests to its Atlantic seaside location in Wabasso, just north of Vero Beach. All guest rooms have been upgraded, there's a new restaurant called Wind & Waves, an outdoor bar and lounge for the adults and expanded environmental programs dedicated to sea turtle conservation.
"We have a naturalist on staff that coordinates our sea turtle program," said General Manager Paul Hart. "Through educational experiences, Disney's Vero Beach Resort guests can learn about sea turtles while participating in once-in-a-lifetime experiences."
Whether it's watching a female sea turtle come ashore at night to lay her eggs during the season or learning about the latest research into sea turtle rehabilitation, these experiences have influenced and inspired many resort guests to take conservation action for sea turtles and other wildlife.The sea turtle theme is seen throughout the hotel, including the carpet design and large photographs of sea turtles on display in each of the guest rooms.
Also popular at the resort is a newly planted garden designed to increase the population of at-risk Atala butterflies. Last year, guests helped cast members from Disney's Animals, Science and Environment team release Atala butterflies hatched at Animal Kingdom, making Disney's Vero Beach Resort one of the place to see Atala butterflies in Florida.
But if the traditional Disney experience is more your idea of a family vacation, Disney's Vero Beach doesn't disappoint.
By day, families can play together in the Atlantic Ocean or at the pool complex, complete with a winding 160-foot waterslide. Nighttime brings a new roster of kid-friendly fun from campfire sing-a-longs with S'mores to Disney's Discover Club, an entertaining childcare program. Kids can practice casting a fishing line in a lake, or steering a kayak on a lagoon trip. Teens can try a new sport such as surfing and scuba.
Although Disney Vero Beach Resort is one of the Vacation Club resorts, it is open to the public. Accommodation options range from standard inn rooms, which sleep four, to deluxe three-bedroom, three-bathroom beachfront cottages, which sleep up to 12. One and two-bedroom villas feature full kitchens, washers and dryers and can accommodate large-sized families.
Along with nature experiences, the resort emphasizes the area's strong pirate, baseball and citrus connections. Families can meet Disney characters at a pirate-themed dinner; sign up for a character breakfast that includes local orange juice; or play baseball on a grassy lawn dedicated to the Baseball Hall of Famer Tommy Lasorda. There's a nine-hole mini golf course that's complimentary for Disney Vacation Club members and their guests.
Dining options include the new full-service restaurant called Wind & Waves that features an American coastal cuisine, including local produce and seafood. A quick-service market serves cooked meals to go and offers a variety of grocery items to make mealtime easier for families. An 11-seat bar is accessible from the pool deck.
Summer is the resort's busiest time, with more than 350 kids on property each week. But in the winter months, the pace slows considerably and more couples use the resort as a way to escape the cold weather in other parts of the country.
"We find in the winter we have more adults who just want to sit and relax and enjoy the beautiful weather," said Hart. "Although our kid population never drops to zero, it's definitely a less busy time."
What: Disney Vacation Club Resort with inn, studio, one-and-two-bedroom suites and oceanfront cottages. It is open year-round to the public, including restaurants, bar and spa.
Where: 9250 Island Grove Terrace, Vero Beach

Of course, when I take pix of Shelb (ok, when I have pix taken of Shelb) I try to get a pic or two of Sid. So, here's the pic he took of himself this time... What a ham!
I took Sid to the mall Tuesday evening because M.odel P.roductions was having an open call. I talked to Sid about it the night before but he said he didn't want to do anything with modelling. I took him anyway. I managed to convince him that going up on the stage was like being on the stage with Chuck E. Cheese. From then he willingly learned his line ("Do you see this happy face? My mom's taking me to Mall!"). The first thing he had to do was a screen test where he recited his line into the mic. He's no stranger to the mic and talking in front of people so he did that quite well. I couldn't get my camera ready in time though cause his turn came and went so fast. Next he had to walk down the runway. I told him to smile but of course he didn't remember anything about that. He just walked. Which was ok with me, I was proud of him that he did it. It in the end he was one of 15 kids to be selected to compete in the finals. The catch with that is that each kid has to sell three tickets (at $50/ea), and they have to pay for the first ticket up front to secure they're spot. I didn't pay. Granted, it pays for the t-shirt, and the headshot, and the DVD of the competition, but still. They have different dates for the finals so if I get sponsors then I'll call to see if they will still take him. Otherwise, oh well for that one.
Sid got a big boy (booster) seat. Doesn't work so well when he falls asleep in it though.
Sid to me: Mommy, are we a fast-poke?
still surprised and touched. That's my baby! Although, I don't know quite where I rank in his life right now considering he has a *ahem* girlfriend.
Grandma to Sid: How do you know she's your girlfriend?
Sid to Grandma: Because she said so.

Gloucestershire County Council
New claims of misconduct being made 'on a daily basis' in wake of disgraced chief fire officer Stewart Edgar's resignation
An internal audit review has been launched to see if any other fire service assets have been bought or sold
Leigh BoobyerLocal Democracy Reporter
Gloucestershire County Council is receiving 'new lines of inquiry' every day in the aftermath of the resignation of disgraced chief fire officer Stewart Edgar, it has been revealed.
Mr Edgar quit his £147,000-a-year post last week after he was found to have bought an ex-fire service Land Rover Discovery for £500, when it was worth up to £8,000.
At a meeting today of the council's environment and communities committee, the authority's commissioning director of communities and infrastructure Nigel Riglar told members he and his team had received multiple claims since, that now need to be proved or disproved.
He did not go into detail about the nature of the fresh allegations, or if they relate directly to Mr Edgar.
Chief Fire Officer Stewart Edgar
Mr Edgar, who was in charge of authorising sales as the chief fire officer, sold the Land Rover to a company he had links to for far less than its potential worth, before then buying it from them.
Mr Riglar said new claims of misconduct are coming into him "on a daily basis" and they are dealing with "new lines of enquiry".
An internal audit review has been launched to see if any other fire service assets have been bought or sold.
The 13 council staff paid more than £1m between them in Gloucestershire
Speaking before the environment and communities committee, Mr Riglar said it should finish in "the short amount of time possible".
Mr Riglar added they can finish the investigation once the new claims have stopped being live, meaning they need to be proved or disproved.
Councillor Jeremy Hilton (LD, Kingsholm and Wotton), a member of the committee, proposed to form a task group to oversee the buying and selling of fire service assets from February 2014 to ensure Mr Edgar's actions were a "one-off".
Councillor Keith Rippington (C, Bisley and Painswick) said the research group should be formed once the internal review has ended.
Stewart Edgar, Gloucestershire's chief fire officer
The committee will decide at a later date whether and when such a group will be created.
A previous investigation triggered by a whistleblower forced Mr Edgar to step down.
The internal review showed Mr Edgar, who was awarded an OBE last month for 27 years of service, demonstrated "poor judgement" over the sale of the fire service vehicle.
Mr Edgar, who was appointed chief fire officer in February 2014, has deleted all of his social media accounts since his resignation.

Graduates get a jump on jobs with career tech
By Ben Nunnally, Star Staff Writer, bnunnally@annistonstar.com

Few teens have jobs building missiles lined up after graduation.
That's what Michael Reaves, a soon-to-be-graduate of Pleasant Valley High School and the Calhoun County Career Academy, plans to do after he doffs his cap and gown this month, working at General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems in Anniston. Career Academy director Kevin Lockridge said the company called the school looking for students in precision machining classes with experience and drive; Lockridge said Reaves has both.
As a new employee, Reaves will work as a lathe operator in the evening, while he goes to school at Gadsden State Community College during the day. He said he likes to work with his hands and doesn't mind getting dirty, so the work suits him. So does the paycheck. The Bureau of Labor Statistics put the median hourly wage for Anniston-area machinists at $23.52 in 2017.
"I want to buy a house, a car, all of that kind of stuff," Reaves said. "I want to make sure everything is paid off and have enough money to take my family out when I have kids, take my wife out."
Reaves said he'll fabricate hydraulics that screw into the end of missiles that stretch 4 or 5 feet long, part of the rocket system that will drive the devices to their targets. Once he's proven himself by working the lathe, he can move up to programming the machine. Eventually he wants to be what he called a "setup technician," who can program multiple machines at the facility.
Reaves is one of a handful of students in local career tech programs with jobs already waiting after graduation.

A'Liebia Morris, who graduates from Anniston High School this month, expects to join Anniston assisted living facility NHC Place, where she'll work as a certified nursing assistant. She completed clinical trials there as part of the high school's career tech program, and said she can start work once she passes her CNA certification exam this month. She said her everyday tasks will include taking patients' blood pressure and heart rates, helping them change and keeping up with their everyday health needs.
Morris said she's wanted to be a nurse since the sixth grade, when emergency services workers responded to a call about her grandmother. Though her grandmother died, she said, watching responders work "sparked something" inside her.
"She needed help I couldn't provide for her, but maybe one day I could do that for someone. Old, young, anything; someone always needs help," she said.
Lockridge said college might not be the answer for every student, as evidenced by graduates like Reaves and Morris. Though both do plan to attend Gadsden State, they've trained through high school for specific positions they can start immediately after graduation. Reaves said his job requires a two-year degree or three years of technical school, requirements that would have held him back for years after graduation. Morris said she didn't believe she'd have had the time to prepare for the CNA exam after leaving school, with work and bills hanging over her head.
"I think that would be the last thing on my mind," Morris said.
Lockridge, a former math teacher, said the parents of his generation believed success was tied to a college degree. Even as tuition costs rise, "undecided" is a top-ranking major in universities, he said, with graduates loaded down by student debt for degrees that might not translate into paying jobs. Meanwhile, he said, improving unemployment rates in the state are at odds with the expansion of manufacturing operations.
"There's not enough kids to meet the need that's out there, which is a good problem for the kids," Lockridge said.

He said trade jobs like machining and welding have a stigma attached to them; many people believe they're difficult, low-paying jobs carried out in hot warehouses. That's not always the case, he said, noting that manufacturing companies are taking educators on tours to see their facilities. Many of them are clean and air-conditioned, he noted, and while low-paying jobs for low-skill workers do exist, he said skilled workers have a different experience waiting for them. Students like Reaves can help break the stigma surrounding work in the trades, he explained, simply by being successful and visible.
"When you ask kids what they want to do, they say the medical field, or be an engineer, a teacher, a coach, things they know of. Everybody knows someone in the medical field but how many kids know someone as a machinist?" Lockridge said. "They don't even know that's out there to be interested in."
Morris said underclassmen stop and ask her about her scrubs, which she often wears to school, and she uses that as an icebreaker to discuss enrolling in career tech courses.
Both students have long-term goals. Reaves said he wants to open a machine shop of his own one day, starting small with a lathe and expanding and hiring as the business grows.
Morris said she wants to become a registered nurse one day. She said her biggest goal is graduation from a four-year college and earning her white nurse's coat. After that, she wants to help deliver babies.
"I want to feel like I have a grasp on life, and when you've just brought life into the world, when you're doing something to do with new life in the world, I feel like that's a grasp on life, right there," she said.

UN Security Council Blames Syria for Houla Massacre
By Edward Yeranian, Mark Snowiss
Handout photo released by Syrian opposition's Shaam News Network shows UN observers at hospital morgue before their burial in central Syrian town of Houla on May 26, 2012.
CAIRO - The United Nations Security Council Sunday unanimously condemned the Syrian government for last week's brutal massacre of at least 108 people, including many children, in Houla, even as Damascus denied its armed forces were responsible.
The 15-nation council said Sunday the attacks "involved a series of government artillery and tank shellings on a residential neighborhood" and again demanded that President Bashar al-Assad withdraw heavy weapons from Syrian towns.
The council also "condemned the killing of civilians by shooting at close range and by severe physical abuse" and said Syria's "outrageous use of force" against its own population is a "violation of applicable international law."
The statement, agreed to by Syrian ally Russia, called for those responsible to be held accountable.
Earlier Sunday, the U.N. mission chief in Syria told an emergency council session that about 108 people - including 49 children under the age of 10 - were killed in the attack. General Robert Mood, speaking via video-link from Damascus, said another 300 people were wounded in the incident.
U.N. observers had initially counted 92 dead in Houla.
International officials have largely blamed the government for Friday's massacre, but Syria has said it was carried out by rebel fighters.
Foreign Ministry Spokesman Jihad Makdissi Sunday called accusations against the Syrian government a "tsunami of lies." Instead, he blamed "hundreds of heavily armed gunmen" who he claimed attacked soldiers.
Those troops, he argues, did not leave their positions except to defend themselves during a nine-hour attack, as armed men allegedly burned houses and killed civilians.
But U.N. observers confirmed that artillery and tank shells - which only government forces have - were fired at residential areas of Houla, northwest of Homs. In a letter to the Security Council, U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon also said monitors had observed signs of shotgun wounds on some of the bodies.
Activists from Houla say government forces peppered the area with mortar shells after large demonstrations against the government on Friday. They say that evening pro-Syrian fighters known as shabiha stormed Houla's three villages, gunning down men in the streets at point-blank range and stabbing women and children in their homes.
The massacre marks the deadliest single attack since Syria's anti-government uprising began about 15 months ago.
Images of bloodied and lifeless young bodies, laid carefully side by side after Friday's onslaught, triggered shock around the world and underlined the failure of a six-week-old U.N. cease-fire plan to stop the violence.
International envoy Kofi Annan, who brokered the peace plan, is expected in Syria on Monday.
The U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights, Navi Pillay, said Sunday the "indiscriminate and possibly deliberate" killing of villagers in the Houla area may mount to crimes against humanity or other forms of international crime.
Arab and western governments have issued statements expressing outrage and putting the blame squarely on Mr. Assad's government.
The White House said it was horrified by credible reports of brutal attacks on women and children in Houla. EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton Sunday spoke of a "heinous act perpetrated by the Syrian regime against its own civilian population."
Angry protests over the killings continued across parts of Syria on Sunday, including the capital Damascus, where security forces fired on protesters in the Midan district. Demonstrations also took place in the southern city of Daraa.
Arab satellite channels showed an amateur video of a resident of that village, Teldau, meeting with a U.N. observer team and complaining about the cruel behavior of government forces.
"My God, we are men," he says, "we are men and they are killing us as if we were less than donkeys." "We were created by God," he insists. "Can it be that they are not God-fearing men?"
Khattar Abou Diab, who teaches political science at the University of Paris, says the Syrian government has a long history of using brutality and repression to deal with opposition.
He argues the government has a bad habit of using brutal force to put down rebellions, such as the one in Hama in 1982, which killed thousands of people, as well as brutality against prisoners. Abou Diab adds the Assad government has done everything possible to militarize the current conflict and turn it into a sectarian affair in order to remain in power.
General Mood urged the government and the opposition to put an end to the violence. He did not directly blame either side for Friday's massacre, but noted government tanks had fired at houses inside one of the villages where the massacre took place.
The rebel Free Syrian Army warned it will not adhere to the U.N.-mediated peace plan if the international community does not take concrete actions to protect citizens. The head of the exile Syrian National Council, Burhan Ghalioun, also condemned the killings.
Makdissi called the Houla assault "brutal" and said the Syrian government has launched an investigation.
Syrian troops shelled residential areas Sunday in the central city of Hama, and the rebel-held town of Rastan, killing at least 14 civilians.
The United Nations says more than 10,000 people have been killed in Syria since the government began its crackdown on dissent in March 2011.
Some information for this report was provided by AP, AFP and Reuters.

The MND, General Vance and every member of the JAG who was involved in this debacle should be forced to retire or release.
If our military Leadership put half as much effort into cleaning up the acquisition program and ensuring a strong vibrant military as they do trying to keep the world from knowing their dirty little secrets Canada would be a world power.
What ever happened to manning up? The JAG's use of the, unnamed Clerk, all veteran staff were on holidays and the dept is understaffed are excuses that are completely unacceptable and show just how morally bankrupt our senior leadership and the Military Justice system has become.
The only good thing that will come out of this is that now all Canadians can see just how big a mistake it was in allowing the NDA to be usurped by the Charter of Rights and Freedoms because it made the military justice system a culture of lawyers and politicians. Some of whom, are alot less ethical than others.

Jesus told his Apostles on several occasions that he was leaving them in order to send to them a mysterious Person to help and teach them. He called this person the 'Spirit of Truth' and the 'Counsellor'.
On the day he ascended into Heaven he told them to wait in Jerusalem for the fulfilment of this promise. The great event took place ten days later, on the Jewish festival called Pentecost. It is thus reported in the second chapter of the Acts of the Apostles, paragraphs 1 to 4.
'When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. And suddenly a sound came from heaven like the rush of a mighty wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. And there appeared to them tongues as of fire, distributed and resting on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues, as the Spirit gave then utterance'. (Acts 2, 14).
The mighty wind blowing round the house and the tongues as of fire were signs of the Spirit of God, powerful and ardent, bringing strength and blessing to the whole of Creation and particularly to the Church of Christ.
A sudden change came over the Apostles. They who had fled and been full of doubts and fears when Christ was arrested now became strong and bold as lions. They were now ready and eager to preach the gospel, to proclaim the good news of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The city at that time was full of people come from many countries for the religious celebrations. Attracted by 'the sound of a mighty wind' they began to gather around the Apostles. They were amazed to hear the Apostles speaking the languages of the various nationalities present.
St Peter, with the eleven other Apostles at his side, then preached powerfully, declaring that Jesus was the Saviour of the world promised by the prophets of old. The effects of this preaching were astonishing. After St Peter's great sermon many came to him eagerly and asked: 'What shall we do?' He replied: 'Repent, and be baptised every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ.' Three thousand were baptised that day. The Acts of the Apostles tells how day by day the numbers of the Christians grew.
This amazing success was due to the fact that the Spirit promised by Christ had come down upon his followers to remain with them always. This Holy Spirit is a mystery far beyond the grasp of the human mind, but the Bible tells us much about the Spirit, a divine breath that gives life to the world and wisdom to the minds of men and women.
'Spirit' is from a Latin word meaning air in motion, such as breath or the wind. Both of these naturally suggest life. If someone breathes it is a sure sign of life, and when death comes it is said we have 'breathed our last.' The death of Christ on the cross is thus described in the Gospel: 'Then Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, "Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit!" And having said this he breathed his last' (Luke 23, 46).
People thought of the wind blowing across the wide expanse of the earth, drying out and warming the soil so that life springs from it, as the life-giving breath of God. Hence when they thought of God as the giver of life, the sacred writers often referred to 'The Spirit.
The first words of the Bible tell how the Spirit of God brought design and life into the universe, brought order out of chaos and developed plant and animal life.
'In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the Spirit of God was moving over the face of the waters. And God said, "Let there by light;" and there was light' (Gen. 1, 1-3).
When the time was ripe God created the human race through a special action of the Spirit. Humanity received a unique gift of the breath of life.
'Then the Lord God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being' (Gen. 2, 7).
The Spirit who gave life to all creatures in the beginning continues to support that life. If this Spirit abandons them, they cease to breathe.
The Spirit then is God the giver of life.
The sacred writers teach that the Spirit gives skill to the hand, courage to the heart and wisdom to the mind, particularly to those chosen by God to be the leaders of the people. The skilled artisans who designed and made the beautiful things used in worship in the Holy Place received their skill from the Spirit. This same Spirit in turn gave wisdom to kings such as David, under whose lead many sacred songs were written, and to Solomon, who built the first great temple in Jerusalem.
"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to bring good tidings to the afflicted" (Is. 61, 1).
"The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord" (Is. 11,2).
The Spirit then is God, the giver of wisdom, and the teacher of truth.
God gives natural life to plants, animals and humanity. But he also gives to humanity a life above Nature, which is supernatural. It is, in fact, a sharing in the life of God. Jesus came precisely to give this life. He said, 'I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly' (John 10, 10). He fed the hungry, cured the sick and raised the dead. But he did more. He died, rose from the dead and went to heaven to send his Spirit that they might live the life of God.
The first two chapters of St. Luke's Gospel tell how the Spirit of God acted strongly upon all who came in contact with Christ. The angel said to Mary, when she conceived Christ in her womb: 'The Holy Spirit will come upon you and the power of the Most High will overshadow you.' When Mary visited her cousin Elizabeth, Elizabeth was 'filled with the Holy Spirit' as soon as she heard the voice of Mary, and the unborn child, later to be called John the Baptist, stirred in the womb. Her husband, the old priest Zechariah, and Simeon, the prophet who waited daily in the Temple for the coming of the Saviour, were also filled with the Spirit and praised God.
Above all, Christ himself was filled with the Spirit. He was led by this Spirit into the desert to spend forty days praying and fasting, in preparation for his public preaching. He returned 'in the power of the Spirit'. In the first words of his first teaching in the synagogue at Nazareth, as given in St. Luke's Gospel, he applied to himself the words of the prophet Isaiah, 'the Spirit of the Lord is upon me' (Luke 4. 14-18).
'I baptise you with water for repentance, but he who is coming after me is mightier than 1, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry; he will baptise you with the Holy Spirit and with fire " (Matt. 3, 1 1).
Jesus himself came to the river Jordan to be baptised by John the Baptist. He had no need of this, for he was the sinless Son of God. But he had entered fully into the condition of human nature and became like all men and women (4th Eucharistic Prayer). Therefore he underwent the ceremony which was a sign of repentance. John saw the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove come down and rest upon him.
Jesus gave a new kind of Baptism, which not only was a sign of sorrow and cleansing from sin, but also gave new life. The third chapter of St. John's Gospel tells how Nicodemus, a pious leader of the Jews, came to question Jesus about his teaching. Jesus told him that those who would belong to his Church must be 'born anew'. Nicodemus asked how a man could be born a second time. Jesus explained that he was talking about birth to a supernatural life, a sharing in the life of God. This would be given through a baptism not merely with water, like the baptism given by John, but with water and the Holy Spirit. He said, 'Truly, truly I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, one cannot enter the kingdom of God' (John 3, 3-5).
The Spirit then is God giving 'new life'.
"And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, Abba! Father! So through God you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son then an heir" (Gal. 4, 6-7).
Christians are brothers and sisters of Jesus and sons and daughters of God. As the heir shares in the riches of the parent, so the Christian shares in the riches of God's life forever.
The Spirit does not come to the followers of Christ only on special occasions, as was the case with the kings, prophets and writers of old. This Spirit comes to dwell in them. Each Christian is like a church or temple in which God lives. In the third chapter of his first letter to the Corinthians St. Paul asks 'Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you?' (I Cor. 3, 16). The only way we can deprive ourselves of this divine indwelling is by serious sin.
The fourteenth, fifteenth and sixteenth chapters of St. John's Gospel give the final message of Christ to the Apostles before he died. He promised that although he was going away, he would not leave them to discover by themselves the meaning of his teaching. He would send his Spirit to remain always with them and guide them into all truth. He said: 'I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counsellor, to be with you for ever, even the Spirit of truth' (John 14, 16).
The Apostles, and those they ordained to help them in teaching the Gospel, were absolutely convinced that they spoke and acted under the driving force and with the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Reading the first chapters of the Acts of the Apostles, one feels the enthusiasm and excitement of those first years when thousands were converted. The Holy Spirit acted so strongly upon them that he seemed to have been 'poured out,' as was foretold by the prophet Joel.
The Spirit then is God giving true wisdom to Christians in the Church of Christ.
In short, the Spirit is God's life, energy, power, vigour for action, wisdom, fire of emotion, God's tender and strong love. The Spirit acts in the people in whom this Spirit dwells, making them live the life of God more fully, The Spirit acts upon their intellects, so that they know the truth of Christ better and make sound judgements. The Spirit acts on their wills, so that they are strong in the resolve to do good, and acts on their hearts and emotions, so that they love generously and bravely.
