ITAR: Breaking the Law to Comply with it
On Behalf of Eckland & Blando | Dec 13, 2022 | Slingshots
The Department of Justice has created an unworkable regulatory scheme whereby companies that endeavor to comply with the International Trafficking in Arms Regulations forbidding the "export" of technical data to individuals without sufficient ties to the United States (i.e., "U.S. persons") are forced to violate anti-discrimination in hiring statutes.[1] The Department of Justice should change their regulatory and enforcement practices to clarify how companies can comply with the government's conflicting requirements. Until such action is taken, there are certain practices we recommend that companies should implement to limit their liability.
What is ITAR?
The International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) controls the import and export of defense and military-related technologies and items for national security purposes.[2] ITAR controls the exchange of items included on the United States Munitions List (USML), which are termed "defense articles." [3] Defense articles may be physical weapons (such as tanks, missiles, and other instruments of war), technology relevant to national security, or technical data (such as information necessary to manufacture other defense articles, software source code, and other defense-related information).[4] ITAR is read broadly, such that releasing data like a computer program to a foreign, unlicensed person or entity, even within the borders of the United States, is considered an unauthorized "export."[5] This means that U.S. employers need to ensure that everyone that is granted access to such protected information is a U.S. person.
Who Is a U.S. Person?
ITAR creates a distinction between U.S. persons, who are automatically compliant, and foreign persons, who need to procure an export license to be compliant. A U.S. person is defined as either a U.S. citizen, U.S. national (a person owing permanent allegiance to the U.S., such as a person born in American Samoa or Swains Island), a lawful permanent resident (such as a green card holder), a U.S. corporation, or the U.S. government.[6] A foreign person, on the other hand, is defined as any person or entity not listed above.[7] Thus, employers of foreign persons who must access USML technical data as part of their job responsibilities will need an export license to do so.[8] As any business in this space knows, these licenses can be cost-prohibitive and time-consuming to obtain.
Between a Rock and a Hard Place: Export Restrictions or Anti-Discrimination Regulations
ITAR's purpose is clear: protecting U.S. national security. But compliance with ITAR can put a company at odds with other laws and regulations. The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibit discrimination in hiring, firing, and recruitment decisions based on national origin.[9] These laws and their implementing regulations, while noble, can create legal problems when employers enact restrictive hiring practices when hiring for jobs that require the viewing of USML technical data.
Some employers have enacted policies that screen out foreign persons when hiring for these jobs which violates the anti-discrimination provisions even while being ITAR compliant. These employers might not be able to obtain an export license for foreign persons, because of a lack of resources, the sheer confusion of navigating ITAR compliance, or even the fact that certain nationalities are completely prohibited from obtaining ITAR licenses. Regardless of the reason, an employer may be held liable for discriminatory employment or hiring practices even as they attempt to comply with ITAR requirements in good faith.
DOJ Guidance and Enforcement
The DOJ's Immigrant and Employee Rights Section, Civil Rights Division (IER) is responsible for enforcing the anti-discrimination provisions of the INA and has made it clear that it will pursue litigation against companies who hire only U.S. citizens in order to try to be ITAR compliant.[10] In 2016, the IER issued a guidance letter to a law firm that stated that ITAR should not be a reason for discrimination in hiring but instead an export license should be obtained for non-U.S. personnel if they are required to access ITAR information.[11]
The IER has already brought several lawsuits in such cases that have reached large settlements. One such suit was brought against Honda Aircraft Company LLC for restricting job postings to applicants who were US citizens.[12] Its apparent INA violation cost the company a civil penalty of $44, 626.[13] Another suit was brought against Clifford Chance US LLP, a large international law firm, for apparent INA violations. [14] Due to the law firm's alleged misunderstanding of ITAR restrictions, Clifford Chance excluded foreign persons from positions requiring document review of ITAR related information.[15] The DOJ pounced, forcing the firm to settle and agree to pay lost wages to the individuals affected by its hiring practices as well as a civil penalty of $132,000. [16] It also reached an agreement to allow IER oversight for two years as well as required training for relevant employees about the requirements of INA. Another similar suit was filed against Setpoint Systems Inc. based on restrictive hiring practices for certain positions to comply with ITAR.[17] Setpoint Systems ultimately settled with the DOJ for a civil penalty of $17,475.[18] Each of these cases demonstrate that compliance with both ITAR and non-discrimination laws is crucial, even where compliance with both does not seem possible.
What Could to be Done to Make Compliance Clearer?
The Department of Justice should first clarify its regulatory and enforcement practices to make it easier for companies to navigate compliance with these regulatory regimes. These clarifications should include whether exigent circumstances, such as immediate contract deadlines that would make applying for an export license impracticable, would warrant screening for U.S. persons in hiring and employment decisions. Additionally, if it is the expectation of the U.S. that employers seek export licenses for non-U.S.-person employees instead of screening them out in employment decisions, then the process must be streamlined. It currently takes months, if not longer, to obtain an export license, and that process usually requires specific knowledge of the exact USML category, product, and information the prospective employee will access, limiting the ability of that employee to take on new government contract tasks after the employee's initial assignments are complete. While these kinds of changes may be overly optimistic, there are still various strategies for minimizing risks in the meantime.
What should Companies do in the Meantime to Comply with ITAR?
These are difficult issues to navigate due to the legal ambiguities involved in complying with both export regulations and non-discrimination obligations; however, companies can still minimize their risks. Perhaps the most prudent thing for companies to do is to consider the feasibility of obtaining an export license when determining whether a company can or should hire additional employees. This would avoid restrictive job postings that limit employment based on nationality. Hiring decisions should be based on ability to work in the United States and then employers should apply for the export license needed to comply with ITAR. Furthermore, if information related to citizenship is being collected due to the company's legitimate security or business concerns, such as determining if an employee would need a license, it is critical that the company have a policy in place to govern the collection and use of that information, so that it is not being used as a basis for employment decisions. Ultimately, a business operating in the export realm often faces a nigh impossible choice of which law to comply with. Consulting a lawyer ahead of time can provide much needed protection and guidance so that a business does not activate the government's trip wires of competing laws.

Discussion in 'macOS High Sierra (10.13)' started by blackdogaudio, Jul 15, 2017.
Just thought I'd pass along my experience after almost 24 hours in with 10.13 PB2 on my iMac late 2014 5K with 1.12TB Fusion drive, 8GBs RAM and I'm very happy with the results -much better than previous 10.13 betas.
I'm also happy to report no more folders with question marks indicating my start up disk can't be found with PB2/APFS that I experienced every morning when waking the machine using PB1 and DP1. I'm also experiencing very little lag (1 to 2 seconds) when opening standard or core apps like Pages, Numbers, Safari, Disk Utility,Photos, etc. though it took two hours for system processes to settle down. Here's hoping my positive experience continues through next week.
I ran into one issue on Day Three trying to wake my mac after a night's sleep. It simply would not wake and required a forced reboot using the power button. After resetting SMS and NVRAM that power management quirk is gone.
Day Seven is looking great so far. All apps are responding in HS as quickly as they do in Sierra.

Otto Staudinger (1830 - 1900)
Lithograph from Otto Staudinger's Exotische Schmetterlinge ("Exotic day butterflies).
S/N: ENT-1888-STA-29–217031
Categories: Insects & Spiders
Otto Staudinger was a German entomologist and a natural history dealer. He established himself as one of the largest in the world, specialising in the collection and sale of insects to museums, scientific institutions and individuals. At the age of six or seven, Otto was introduced into entomology by his private tutor Wagner who collected beetles. In the summer of 1843 his father purchased the Rittergut Lübsee near Güstrow where Otto – now under the instruction of his tutor Hermann – began to collect Lepidoptera. In 1849 Staudinger studies medicine at the University of Berlin. In March 1854 he received his Dr. Phil. and by his stage was solely devoted to his interest in entomology. To support his extensive travelling costs, Staudinger founded a business and, with the help of his father-in-law, began to sell parts of his collections. Over the years this grew to be substantial and he began selling some of his extensive collection. The business grew and in 1879 the Danish-born entomologist Andreas Bang-Haas (1846–1925) entered into the business, married Staudinger's daughter in 1880 and became co-owner of the firm, now "Staudinger & Bang-Haas". In 1884 the growing company moved to the larger "Villa Sphinx" and ten years later a two-story wing had to be added. From the mid-1880s onward Staudinger entrusted the company business more and more to Bang-Haas and concentrated on his work in Lepidoptera taxonomy.

It's always nice to know what to expect. Our easy-to-use fuel-economy calculator is a simple way to compare our many vehicles in stock. Whether you're looking for a powerful pickup truck or sleek sedan, this handy calculator is the great equalizer.


After 39weeks and 4days, our LO finally arrived in our arms. A long wait indeed. But everything is worth it. She's our darling baby girl, Josie.
At 39weeks and 2days, we went for our checkup due to LO's weight gain (est 3kg at wk37) and suspected of low amniotic fluid index due to my weight loss. And LO's new est weight is 3.6kg.
Our gynae, Dr CK Khoo, after a long wait to see him, isussed my admittance letter for induced delivery at 2am the next day as he was worried that our LO will be too big for natural delivery. That is like, another 5 hours right after seeing him. Woo.. I can feel the nerves. Excited, scared and nervous.
After admission, we spent about 2-3 hours in the delivery suite for the first prostin insertion, and we were sent up to our ward/room. I was still zero cm dilated. Hubby decided to checked me into Class A ward, so that we do not need to share the ward. The ward looks like a mini hotel room. Our mini staycation to welcome our LO.
Dr had instructed for another prostin to be inserted at 10am. And by 11am, I started having contractions. Tolerable but still not yet dilated. At 1630, I find that the contractions were too painful. So I had pethidine injected to my thigh. Lucky for me, I finally dilated. 2cm at 1930 and 4cm at 2200.
I had my epidural done at 0130. It was too painful to endure the contractions without any pain relief. The doc who administered the epi was very interesting. Hubby and I both liked him and his honesty.
At 0140, I started bleeding, which is normal and I thought I was finally progressing. But the next check at 0800, i was only 3cm dilated. It can close back?? Dr had ordered oxytocin, a liquid drug to be administered by IV tube to increase contractions, to start at 1000.
My gynae finally came to see me at 1030. And after his check, I was 5cm dilated. I'm so happy. I'm tired of being disappointed after waiting for so long. Then at around 1330, nurse checked that I was 9cm dilated. Yay!!! She gauged that I would be ready by 1430. But guess not.
My third dose of epidural has to run out just before labour. And I can feel the intense pain. Omg!! I rejected the use of the laughing gas but mid way, after being rude and cranky to the nurses and hubby for a while, I had begged to use the gas. Or anything to relief the pain and discomfort. Well, whatever they show ob TV is not that dramatic. I was like a mad woman.
I had a hard time holding it and not push when my LO was crowning, or near it, I'm not too sure. It was just unbearable and I just have to push. Finally my gynae cane after rushing over from another csect delivery. I was so glas he finally showed up. With his one punch and my final push, our 10 months of effort is born. But I was not really feeling that yet as I can still feel lots of blood and the placenta waiting to be delivered. It was only after everything was out, I felt a sense of relief, then happiness when I heard my daughter's cry. My daughter was born on 10 October 2014 at 4+pm, weighing about 3.4kg.
It wasn't for long as right after that, doc was trying to stitch me up. But as my epi was long gone, I was in pain. Doc asked me to get my relief from the gas. Numbing, if I can keep my mind away from anticipating when is the next stitch. Ouch.
When everything was done, we took a photo with the doc, did skin to skin and waited for the nurse to settle the paper work and clean me. Finally we can go back to the ward at 7plus. Oh I puked green liquid. I wonder if it's from the epidural or laughing gas.
The world spinned with stars and I almost fainted while getting myself off the bed to the wheelchair. It was uncomfortable. Guess that's the result from losing so much blood. I was exhausted, super giddy and ... very exhausted... I could not care much about anything at that time and simply wished to rest.
Anyway, I was expected to pee but I prefer to go to the toilet and I blacked out. Scared my hubby. And maybe that's why that nurse whom was suppose to take care of me when I fainted, keep giving me the black face whenever I asked for help for anything. Sighs.
My family came a while that night to see our daughter. Everyone seems really happy to see her.
Now our new worries is her growing up strong and healthy, physically and mentally. Our new stage in life.

Global payment processing provider Payscout has partnered with Visa to create the world's first VR payment platform.
The Payscout VR Commerce app features integration with Visa Checkout, allowing users to register payment credentials within the service or access their existing Visa account.
The payment system is tied to a full 360-video experience that gives consumers the opportunity to explore a virtual store, explore the merchandise and then pay without needing to remove their headsets.
"This moment represents the next step in the evolution of shopping experiences," said Payscout CEO Cleveland Brown.
Currently the app is only available through the Google Play Store, but the company is currently adapting the technology for IoS and other VR platforms.
The only virtual store available at the time of publication was Body Language Sportswear, an ecommerce merchant based in LA.
Users can rotate and enlarge items in the store. The app then securely confirms the purchase and then incorporates the user information held by Visa Checkout. Once the Payscout VR Commerce has processed the payment, all of the details are sent to the merchant who then confirms the order.
"VR is already one of the best ways to bring unique and immersive experiences to life, and we've now unlocked VR as the next frontier of digital commerce," said Sam Shrauger, SVP, Digital Products at Visa Inc said.

Värmeböljan i Australien 2009 var en period med extrema temperaturer som drabbade framförallt sydöstra Australien och ön Tasmanien i slutet av januari och början februari 2009. Hårdast drabbat var delstaterna Victoria och Western Australia. I slutet av värmeböljan drabbades framförallt Victoria också av förödande skogsbränder som dödade 173 människor (se Skogsbränderna i Australien 2009).

Värmeböljan är enligt den Australiensiska vädertjänsten den intensivaste som drabbat regionen sedan kontinuerliga observationer började göras under 1800-talets andra hälft. Upphovet till värmeböljan var ett mäktigt högtryck som nästan låg stilla över Tasmanska havet i nästan 2 veckor. Därmed skapades mycket gynnsamma förutsättningar för den heta ökenluften i centrala Australien att stömma ner över landets sydöstra del. Mängder med nya temperaturrekord noterades vad gäller maxtemperatur på dagarna, högsta nattemperaturer och antalet raka dagar med temperaturer över 40 grader C. Australiens näst största stad Melbourne noterade 28-30 januari för första gången 3 dagar i rad med maxtemperaturer över 43 grader C. Efter några dagar med lite svalare väder (30-34 grader C) noterade Melbourne den 7 februari en maxtemperatur på 46,4 grader C, högsta någonsin. I den andra storstaden vid sydkusten Adelaide noterade 28 januari en temperatur på 45,7 grader C, tredje högsta någonsin. Adelaide noterade också en rekordnotering för staden på 6 dagar i rad med maxtemperatur över 40 grader C.

Längre in i landet noterades ännu högre temperaturer, allra högst hela 48,2 grader C i Kyancutta South Australia. Några platser, till exempel Mildura i Victoria hade hela 12 dagar i rad med maxtemperatur över 40 grader C även det rekord, max 46,7 grader C 7 februari. Ön Tasmanien som ligger söder om Australien har ett betydligt svalare klimat än fastlandet men även här uppmättes rekord tempereraturer upp till 42,8 grader C.

Antalet dödsoffer för själva värmeböljan, exklusive bränderna var, enligt australiensiska vårdmyndigheter 374 personer. Dessutom fick över 2000 personer sjukhusvård p.g.a. värmeslag mm.

Alicia Vikander Gives Rare Insight Into Family Life With Son and Husband Michael Fassbender
Posted on April 6, 2022 by Tod Windler
Family first.
Alicia Vikander may be an Oscar winning-actress, but her main focus remains on her husband Michael Fassbender and their child. In the May issue of Harper's Bazaar UK, the 33-year-old revealed that she and the 45-year-old actor coordinate their schedules so that they can always be together as a family-of-three.
"In my little family, with my husband and my child, we travel together, always," she said. "That's the rule. We do jobs so one of us can always be with the baby."
Alicia and Michael met and fell in love in 2014 on the set of the heartbreaking film The Light Between Oceans. After a top-secret engagement, the ultra-private couple exchanged vows in Ibiza in October 2017.
"It's not about being secretive," Alicia told Vogue a few weeks after the wedding. "It's just about choosing the few things that you keep private."
Michael previously brushed off the pair's elusive reputation, saying he knew how to avoid being asked about his romantic life.
"It's not really difficult," the X-Men star said on Good Morning Britain in2016 "I just answer what I choose to answer and don't answer other things."

The couple also kept quiet about Alicia's pregnancy, even after Alicia was photographed holding an infant during a trip to Ibiza in August2021 The following month, the Tomb Raider star finally spilled the baby news while promoting her film Blue Bayou.
"I now have a whole new understanding of life in general," she told People about motherhood in September. "That's pretty beautiful and obviously will give a lot to any of my work in the future."
Despite the hush-hush nature of it all, having a family was always a lifelong dream of the Swedish actress.
"It's the wonder of my world," she told Elle in2017 "I've always wanted kids. I've never been pregnant, but I hope to have a family one day. And it's both the expectation and knowing that it should be the greatest experience of my life—and suddenly from one day to another, it's a reality; it's a new chapter of your life."
Alicia also hasn't ruled out re-teaming with Fassbender on screen either—assuming the gig works around her new family priorities.
"I would love to work with him one day, but we're very much individuals, which I love and I think is good in any relationship," she told Elle in 2020. "We both take on parts because it's a film that is right for us, so it would have to be the same if we were ever to work together again."

When thinking about how to get to Antarctica, you need to be prepared for some realistic expectations. Visits to the content are centred around coastal zones that are reachable by ship. This can only really occur during the summer months, this is between November and March. Cruise ships will, as a rule, not travel outside of these months as there is a serious risk that they could otherwise be forced to stay there due to the thick or thickening pack ice. At the most you can expect over 20 hours of daylight at the high points of summer. This is incredible for a non-stop viewing experience.
Travel to Antarctica outside of these times is just not possible with the constant darkness and thickening of the ice that makes the content considerably increase in size.
The best and most convenient option for getting to Antarctica is by taking a cruise ship and this will most likely be from somewhere in South America and across the Drake Passage, which is the body of water between South America and Antarctica.

Kyuss Lives! lived @ Terminal 5 with The Sword & MonstrO (pics & setlist)

Kyuss Lives! @ Terminal 5
The Aquarian Weekly: You're doing rehearsals?
John Garcia: It's pretty much pre-production for the next record has already started and we're just trying to get all of our ducks in a row and whatnot.
Wow. That seems really quick. Do you have new material already, or is pre-production writing it?
Yeah, it's more pre-production writing it, sitting in the room and bouncing ideas back and forth, talking about tones and drum sounds, guitars, whether it be sitars or 12-string baritones or whatever it may be. We're kind of ironing out all the logistics of it all. It's an exciting time.
Is Brant taking the lead role in writing the music?
One thing for certain is it's everybody's responsibility to come to the table with something. This is a group thing, and Brant expects that. Brant expects that out of everybody. Whoever brings something to the table, music-wise, he needs to put his 25 percent in there, I need to put my 25 percent in there, and Bruno does, so we all have to. Nick does. So it's definitely a planned thing, where the song deserves everybody's input. That's the good thing about it. It's not just one person, it's the whole band thing, whether it be writing lyrics–Brant's gonna come to the table with melodies, I'm gonna come to the table with music. There's switched roles, and I look forward to that. It's definitely a group project, though.
…Now, obviously, a huge, integral part of Kyuss is not there, and it's going amazingly well without Josh. Now, a lot of people think that there's–a lot of people want there to be a lot of animosity between Josh and Kyuss Lives! The flipside of the coin is that there's no animosity. We all love and respect Josh, and it goes both ways, so it's very, very interesting, how the process is going.
Kyuss Lives!, and apparently so does bassist Nick Oliveri. He was in the band, despite his recent troubles, when the reunited desert stoners hit Terminal 5 on Friday (9/23). Pictures are in this post.
The show was the first reunion show in NYC for touring quartet, which features John Garcia, Brant Bjork, Nick Oliveri and Bruno Fevery in place of Josh Homme. The setlist, as you can see below, stuck to the classics (despite the new material discussed above).
If you arrived early, you may have seen support from The Sword and MonstrO, the latter of which is the new project from ex-Torche member Juan Montoya and Kyle Sanders of Bloodsimple (and brother of Mastodon bassist Troy Sanders). Their debut LP is out now via Vagrant Records.

Dort war er von 1994 bis 2001 Fraktionsvorsitzender der SPD. Von 2002 bis März 2007 war er stellvertretender Landesvorsitzender der SPD, anschließend bis 2009 Landesvorsitzender. Egloff trat nach der Niederlage der SPD in Hamburg bei den Bundestagswahlen 2009 zurück; die SPD in Hamburg hatte drei der sechs zuvor gehaltenen Bundestagswahlkreise verloren, auch Egloff selbst scheiterte mit seiner Bundestagskandidatur. Bei den Auseinandersetzungen um die Kandidaturen von Dorothee Stapelfeldt und Mathias Petersen im Februar 2007 fungierte er als parteiinterner Mediator.

Vom 10. Oktober 2001 bis zum 11. März 2011 war er Mitglied der Hamburgischen Bürgerschaft und betätigte sich im Umweltausschuss, Wirtschaftsausschuss und Wissenschaftsausschuss. Er war Fachsprecher für Wirtschaftspolitik, gab dieses Amt jedoch nach seiner Wahl zum SPD-Landesvorsitzenden im März 2007 auf. Ab 2001 war er stellvertretender Fraktionsvorsitzender, musste diesen Posten aber im März 2004 nach einem Disput mit Werner Dobritz abgeben, bis er ihn im Februar 2006 wieder einnehmen konnte.

Bei der Bürgerschaftswahl im Februar 2008 zog er über den Wahlkreis Bramfeld – Farmsen-Berne erneut als Abgeordneter in die Bürgerschaft ein, saß dann aber nur noch im Wissenschaftsausschuss.

Zur Bundestagswahl 2009 wurde er am 14. Februar des Jahres von den Landesvertretern der Hamburger SPD auf Platz drei der Landesliste gewählt. Er erhielt 207 der 271 abgegebenen Stimmen. Zudem wurde er in seinem Wahlkreis Wandsbek auch als Direktkandidat aufgestellt. Er unterlag im Wahlkreis jedoch Jürgen Klimke von der CDU und zog auch nicht über die Landesliste in den Bundestag ein, rückte aber am 11. März 2011 für Olaf Scholz nach, als der sein Bundestagsmandat mit Rücksicht auf seine Wahl zum Ersten Bürgermeister Hamburgs aufgab. Das aufgrund seiner Doppelkandidatur auch bei der Bürgerschaftswahl 2011 errungene Mandat gibt Egloff daraufhin an Lars Pochnicht ab. Für die Bundestagswahl bewarb er sich erfolglos für die Kandidatur in einem der Wahlkreise, Wandsbek erhielt Aydan Özoguz, sodass er lediglich auf der Landesliste auf Platz 2 kandidierte. Da aber die fünf Hamburger SPD-Mandate ausschließlich durch Direktmandate abgedeckt wurden, verlor Egloff seinen Sitz im Bundestag. Aktuell ist er erster Nachrücker.

Im Zuge der Veröffentlichung von Depeschen US-amerikanischer Botschaften durch WikiLeaks wurde Egloff als Kritiker von Sigmar Gabriels Afghanistanpolitik genannt.

Lapinette hung over the balcony and tried to see the page. "It's a play," she smiled. "There's a list on the back," said the Wabbit. He read it out. "Knife, sword, firewood." Lapinette's ears swayed. The Wabbit continued. "Ship box, island, dogs ears." "Dogs ears?" yelled Lapinette. "I think so," said the Wabbit, "the writing's squiggly." He squinted down the page. "Any more?" asked Lapinette. "Fripperies," announced the Wabbit. Lapinette paused to think. "Does the list involve a magic book?" "It's in capitals," nodded the Wabbit. "Then they're all things in The Tempest," murmured Lapinette. She pirouetted. "You were on the stage weren't you?" said the Wabbit slyly. Lapinette fluttered her paws. "Acting is a passport to fun." The Wabbit laughed. "So maybe you could play spy and decode this." Lapinette flew down the stairs and seized the page. Her eyes flew up and down the page and then she turned it over.

McConnell on violent protests of police killings: "Destruction does not build a better society"
Fadel Allassan
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) Photo: Drew Angerer/Getty Images
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) condemned Friday violent protests around the country sparked by police killings of unarmed black citizens, including the deaths of George Floyd in Minneapolis and Breonna Taylor in McConnell's hometown of Louisville.
The big picture: McConnell said that he supports free speech and peaceful protests condemning the killings, which he said "have shaken our nation." But he said that he believes recent violent protests are not an exercise of free speech, but instead "violent crime that victimizes innocent people."
What he's saying:
"Generations of heroes have fought and died to protect Americans' First Amendment rights to voice their anger and engage in peaceful protest. I have championed these liberties my entire career. Stealing, burning down buildings, attacking law enforcement officers, or laying siege to police precincts is not speech or protest. It is violent crime that victimizes innocent people.
"Kentuckians cannot and will not accept violence and chaos on our streets. Seven people were shot in Louisville last night, and according to Mayor Fischer, none of those shots were fired by law enforcement. This senseless behavior has to stop.
"Our city, our state, and our country have to pull together. Violence does not make our streets safer. Injustice does not promote justice. Destruction does not build a better society. We will only be able to chart the future we want if we do it together."

Over 190 law enforcement officials endorse Biden
Over 190 law enforcement officials on Friday endorsed Joe Biden for president, per a campaign statement.
Why it matters: The endorsements rebut a theme of the Trump re-election campaign, which has falsely claimed that Biden wants to defund the police. Both candidates this week traveled to Kenosha, Wisconsin to address the shooting of Jacob Blake. Biden called for officers involved to be charged while Trump cracked down on protests that had turned violent.

The family-owned restaurant Hofbrau Steakhouse and American Grill in Interlochen is changing its name after being asked to do so by a German company. The German beer maker Staaliches Hofbräuhaus says the Hofbrau is violating its trademark.
The restaurant owners considered fighting it, but decided the best thing to do was to pick something new. So they're holding a public naming contest. People can propose names for the restaurant, and the winner gets a prize.
It's 6:30pm on a Wednesday evening at Rare Bird Brewpub. There are about 80 people inside drinking beer and eating dinner, and only one open table left.
"Everybody might think like, 'Oh you're busy, you have a successful business, that means you're rich,'" says restaurant co-owner Tina Schuett. "No. It means I'm several hundred thousands of dollars in debt for a long time out."
Tina Schuett and Nate Crane opened Rare Bird Brewpub two years ago in downtown Traverse City.
Two-thirds of all restaurants will fail within three years of first opening their doors, a statistic that could be attributed to an owner's desire for expansion only after a few months of profits.
"Hometown Holdouts" is a new e-book that breaks down the success of businesses that chose to stay local, despite nationwide recognition. Author Micheline Maynard says "hometown holdouts" benefit their communities, and resist the pressure to expand.
The Michigan Attorney General's office has accused a Traverse City resort owner of extortion.
Attorney General Bill Schuette says 58-year-old Bryan Punturo, owner of the ParkShore resort, threatened the owners of a competing parasailing business on Grand Traverse Bay. Puntoro allegedly convinced the victim to pay him in exchange for not forcing the victim out of business.
Attorney Brace Kern represents the alleged victim – Saburi Boyer – in an ongoing civil case.
Costco is coming to Traverse City, but even before ground is broken for the big box store, city officials are worried Costco might try to get a so-called "dark store" tax assessment.
That's when big retailers argue that the value of their stores is only equal to an empty – or "dark" – store. They've been winning these disputes all over Michigan.
Opponents are fighting back, saying dark store assessments are hurting communities.
Retailers like Target, Meijer and Costco have appealed their assessments in Michigan, hoping to pay less money in taxes. They say if they turned around and tried to sell their stores, not many companies would want to buy them. The Michigan Tax Tribunal, which decides tax appeals, has been ruling in favor of retailers.
Shorts Brewing Company announced Thursday it will ship beer out-of-state for the first time. Next month, the brewery will expand operations into Illinois and Pennsylvania.
Shorts has always prided itself on being a "Michigan-only" brewery. But Chief Financial Officer Brian Beckwith says the company has grown since it opened in 2004.
"We got to a point where, after 12 years of thinking Michigan could consume all of the beer that we could brew, we started to wonder if that was true," says Beckwith.
Bill Marsh Auto Group has withdrawn its support from United Way. The decision was made after company leaders discovered United Way of Northwest Michigan provides funds to Planned Parenthood in Traverse City.
Bill Marsh Jr., a partner of the family-run auto group, says the decision was made based on his family's values and was in no way an attempt to make a political statement.
Listen to our conversation with Michael Jackman.
Michigan's local food movement is growing and thriving. We're seeing more chefs who deeply care about what they buy and from whom.
Chefs like James Rigato of the Root, a locavore restaurant in White Lake Township.
Writer Michael Jackman of the Metro Times recently analyzed a meal prepared by Chef Rigato and traced nearly 100% of its ingredients to Michigan producers. His just-released story in the Metro Times is billed as "a grand tour of Michigan's local food movement."
The meal consisted of a Charcuterie platter with meat, cheese, fish and vegetables from the region.
Bring the game to life with "Escape Michigan"
We talk about Escape Michigan with marketing manager C.J. DeVries.
West Michigan's first "live escape room," is opening next month in the town of Walker, near Grand Rapids.
Based on the popular video game genre, players are locked in a room where they have to solve puzzles and link clues to eventually escape.
A new zoo opened this month in Williamsburg but visitors won't find elephants, giraffes or gorillas there.
Chaz lives in the bug zoo with dozens of his creepy, crawly friends – including a collection of tarantulas, a ghost mantis from Africa named "Casper" and a hive of Michigan bees.
Cyndie Bobier opened the bug zoo earlier this month. The project took more than two years to get off the ground.
In the age of Amazon, bookstores are a dying breed – unable to compete with online retail and the popularity of e-readers. Or at least that's been the accepted narrative in the book business over the last few years.
In Traverse City, there are a couple of bookstores trying to buck that trend.
Brilliant Books on Traverse City's Front Street feels like a throwback to bookstores past. Jazz music is piped softly through overhead speakers. The wooden floor creaks underfoot as you walk past plush leather sofas and neatly arranged aisles of hardcovers.
Many northern Michigan business owners have a new tax opportunity from the state, but might not be seizing it. The state of Michigan enacted changes late last year that allows business owners an $80,000 dollar exemption to personal property taxes. The required forms are due by February 10.
Area city and county officials are worried property owners are not taking advantage. Petoskey city assessor Robert Englebrecht says he's noticed local owners have not been filling out the new form, although they are the target.

POLICE issued a renewed appeal this week in the hope of shedding light on a mysterious death that happened almost exactly one year ago.
Essex Police are hoping that they will receive information from the public that helps them establish exactly what happened to Michal Droppa, who was apparently killed after being hit by a car on the M11 in the early hours of Monday June 11, 2007.
An inquest into Mr Droppa's death is taking place on the one-year anniversary of the collision, but police are yet to track down the driver of the car they believe collided with the Slovakian national.
A police spokesman said: "Michal was knocked down as he walked south on the M11 motorway between Stansted and Harlow. He had been living in the Brighton area for 18 months and was booked on the 6.25am flight from Stansted to Slovakia on Sunday June 10, 2007, to return to his home in Dolny Kubin, but missed his flight.
"He then booked into Day's hotel at Birchanger services on Sunday night, but his room appears not to have been occupied. Enquiries have revealed that Michal closed his bank account in Brighton and would have had about £1800 in cash on him.
"He may have dropped the cash at Birchanger services as it was later found and handed in, and this may be why he missed his flight."
At 2am on June 11 last year, a motorist contacted the police to report a man walking on the hard shoulder of the southbound carriageway of the motorway. Highways Agency traffic officers attempted to locate the man and pulled up in front of a single-decker National Express coach, which had stopped 100 yards after sighting the man to see if he needed help.
The coach driver and Highways officers attempted to find the walking man, and discovered him lying seriously injured in lane one of the motorway.
He was taken to Queen's Hospital in Romford, where he was joined by his parents and girlfriend, who had flown in from Slovakia. Mr Droppa died shortly afterwards.
Sgt Dave Jones appealed to the public to help police help Mr Droppa's family by establishing more detailed facts surrounding his death.
He said: "It is now almost a year from the collision that led to Michal's death. We owe it to his family to discover what he was doing walking on the M11 and what happened in the moments leading up to the fateful collision.
"I ask all motorway users to cast their mind back to that day last year, and try to remember anything that may allow us to bring closure for Michal's family."
Anyone with any information about the collision, or Michal's movements in the Stansted area, is asked to contact police on 0300 333 4444.

Nathan Crumpton (Nairobi, 9 oktober 1985) is een Amerikaans skeletonracer die uitkomt voor Amerikaans Samoa.

Biografie

Jeugd en tienerjaren
Crumpton werd geboren in Nairobi waar hij de eerste jaren leefde. Nadien woonde hij op verschillende plaatsen in de wereld en verhuisde vaak van school. Maar deed op allen aan sport zoals rugby, lacrosse en atletiek. Hij was gespecialiseerd in hink-stap-springen waar hij nummer een was in zijn senior jaar van Amerika. Hij studeerde nadien op Princeton University waar hij afstudeerde als derde snelste hink-stap sprinter ooit. Maar leed ondanks de sportieve succes aan een chronische blessure. Hij studeerde af met een diploma in Sociologie en milieuwetenschappen daarnaast ontving hij ook de Becky Colvin Memorial award en de Myers award.

Op Princeton maakte hij ook kennis voor het eerst met fotografie toen hij voor een sportwedstrijd moest invallen voor een vriend. Hij ging daarna aan de slag bij de The Daily Princetonian als fotograaf. Na zijn studies werd hij naast skeletonracer fotograaf.

Skeleton
In 2011 startte hij met skeleton en in 2014 wist hij een selectie voor het nationale team te halen. Hij maakte zijn wereldbekerdebuut in het seizoen 2015/16, waar hij 16e werd. In het seizoen 2016/17 deed hij zelfs nog beter en werd 11e. Hij deed in het volgende seizoen een stapje terug en was maar sporadisch actief in de wereldbeker, maar in het seizoen 2020/21 keerde hij terug.

Op het wereldkampioenschap 2016 werd hij 8e en in de landenwedstrijd 11e. In 2017 nam hij opnieuw deel en werd 18e, na een afwezigheid in 2019 keerde hij in 2020 terug en werd opnieuw 18e.

In 2019 verliet hij het Amerikaanse team en kwam vervolgens uit voor Amerikaans-Samoa. In 2017 probeerde hij het voor het eerst als commentator bij skeletonwedstrijden.

In 2022 kwalificeerde hij zich voor de Olympische Winterspelen; hij werd uiteindelijk 19e na vier runs.

Atletiek
Crumpton slaagde er in zich te kwalificeren voor de 100m op de Olympische Spelen van Tokio 2020. Hij werd pas negende in zijn voorronde en uitgeschakeld in een tijd van 11,27 seconden wat een verbetering van zijn persoonlijk record is.

Email sent! By the way, I saw your feature today on Reading Matters and enjoyed it. Thanks!
Oh Thomas, you are putting your co-host (yes me) to utter shame. That said I started an Anita book today and am already halfway through so a reminder post and all that is coming next week!

Center City to get its first marijuana dispensary
by Sam Wood, Posted: April 25, 2018
The site of a future marijuana dispensary is pictured in the 1200 block of Sansom Street in Center City.
TIM TAI / Staff Photographer
Medical marijuana retailers have sprouted across the state since February, dispensing cannabis to thousands of patients with 17 qualifying health conditions.
But Philadelphia, the state's most populous municipality, has yet to see a single dispensary open within the city limits.
Israeli marijuana giant partners with Pa. medical grower
Marijuana growers seek to extinguish Pa.'s cannabis research program
Why patients still can't buy medical marijuana in Philadelphia months after the new law kicked off
That should change in the coming months with at least four shops on the horizon.
"The opening of medical cannabis dispensaries in Philadelphia will make critical treatments more accessible to patients in need," Mayor Kenney said in a statement. "The program is also creating attractive jobs and the resulting tax revenue will fund important programs that improve our city and Commonwealth."
Beyond/Hello, an Abington-based company financed by a big Denver marijuana group, announced Wednesday that it will be the first to open a dispensary in Center City.
The shop is slated for the 1200 block of Sansom Street, a few doors to the east of Fergie's Pub. However Beyond/Hello won't begin serving patients until construction is complete, and that won't be until the fall.
Fishtown will get the city's first dispensary in late May. Restore Integrative Wellness Centers will open on the 900 block of Frankford Avenue, across from the Fillmore Philadelphia concert hall.
In Northeast Philadelphia's Bustleton neighborhood, Holistic Pharma expects to open in June at Krewstown Road near Bloomfield Avenue. In South Philadelphia, Keystone Shops has plans for a dispensary within sight of the stadium complex, on the 300 block of Packer Avenue.
Zoning and neighborhood opposition stalled — and later shut down — locations in the Northeast and Mount Airy.
A plan to open a Pharmacann dispensary near Philadelphia Mills shopping center was challenged in federal court by the mall's owner. Pharmacann withdrew from the location rather than fight a costly battle that could have imperiled the state's medical marijuana program.
TerraVida Holistic Centers canceled plans for a location in East Mount Airy after local politicians and neighbors sought to overturn its zoning permit. The state granted permission for TerraVida to relocate the shop to Malvern.

Biografia
Francesco Carlini, detto Franco (e in sardo Franciscu), ha studiato a Cagliari e a Roma, dove, alla Sapienza, si è laureato in lettere con una tesi su Italo Svevo. A Roma è stato redattore di Radio Città Futura e vi ha diretto la rivista Sardigna emigrada.

Da decenni è attivo come pubblicista con scritti politici, di critica e di recensioni letterarie. Ha collaborato con il manifesto, Paragone, Umana, S'Ischiglia e molti fogli della galassia neosardista, da Su populu sardu a Natzione sarda a Sa Repubblica sarda.

Ha pubblicato diversi libri di poesia e romanzi in sardo e/o in italiano, di racconti, di storia letteraria e di narrazioni popolari sarde. Nel 1980 ha vinto il Premio Città di Ozieri per la poesia e nel 2002 il Premio Grazia Deledda per la letteratura in lingua sarda.

I need to replace that battery on my S7 Active, but I don't see any kits for the active—just generic for the S7. Would that work? I'm specifically wonering whether the waterproof seal would fit—is it the same size?
Thanks for the information. Ths seems like something that should have been easier to clarify. Maybe the folks at iFixit should consider adding a specific notice about incompatibility to the results of searches for S7 active parts.

Nearly 18 million people care for a relative older than 65 who needs help, yet "the need to recognize and support caregivers is among the most significant challenges" facing the nation's swelling elderly population, their families and society, according to the report from the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine. Describing family caregiving as "a critical issue of public policy," a committee of experts in health care and aging said the next presidential administration in 2017 should direct a national strategy to develop ways to support caregivers, including economically.

Isabel's field was originally dedicated to Alex Isabel, Amsterdam Native & former City Recreation Commissioner as well as a scout for the Brooklyn Dodgers Baseball Team.
As time went on, the field because run-down, so Alex Isabel's nephew, Joseph Isabel (current 1st Ward Alderman & Amsterdam Recreation Committee Chairperson) renovated the field. He put up a new fence, dugout, grass & an infield and re-dedicated it to his parents, Guy & Ida Isabel.
He later added lights & a scoreboard. Joe's parents sponsored "Isabel's Wee Men's baseball Team" beginning in 1960. The officers of the Amsterdam youth Baseball Organization have since added a concession stand & additional baseball diamond, parking, playground area and a batting cage.
Isabel's Park is the current home of the Amsterdam Youth baseball League serving children ages 5-12.
