Sanitation problems were nothing new at the shelter and kitchen, said Jeremy Devine, executive director of New Covenant Hospitality House, which operated the kitchen. ''They had been threatening to close us down for three years.'' But this time the problem was far more serious.
Nine days before the closing, a 60-year-old man named Donald Parent checked into the Stamford Hospital complaining of pneumonia. He gave his address as 66 West Main, the address of the shelter. Legionnaire's disease was subsequently diagnosed. He died on Jan. 5, two days after the shelter and kitchen were closed.
Another man who gave the shelter as his address was reported by health officials to have checked into the hospital in mid-December, apparently with influenza.
He was released as cured on Dec. 25. Hospital officials said a sputum test revealed the presence of the Legionnaire's disease bacterium, but he has since been restored to good health.
Further tests are being conducted of blood samples taken while the man was hospitalized, and the diagnosis remains uncertain.
Residents of the center who knew Mr. Parent and staff personnel of the soup kitchen say he had not stayed a night or taken a meal there in 13 months, although he had stayed there previously.
And the other man, identified as Harry, was in his 20's and was not qualified to stay at the West Main shelter, which was restricted to homeless people over 40, and he had stayed at another shelter in an abandoned school, the Rice School Shelter.
''The gentleman who died, Donald Parent, had been living with his son for 13 months,'' said Mark Wallace, a resident and volunteer worker at the Rice School Shelter, who said he knew Mr. Parent personally.
But the West Main shelter and kitchen, scheduled to be closed within the next three for four months to make way for a public park, remain closed.
And Dr. Andrew McBride, the town's chief medical officer and director of the Health Department, now says, ''We had suspicions very early that the West Main building was not a source of the Legionnaire's disease - and neither was the other building,'' the Rice School Shelter.
State health officicials have confirmed that Mr. Parent had Legionnaire's disease, but final analysis of the other case will not be completed for several weeks.
At the same time, Dr. McBride said health violations at the West Main shelter were sufficient to close it down without any suggestion of Legionnaire's disease.
But, with one confirmed case and another possible, where did the infection originate?
At this point, Dr. McBride said, no one knows.
The City of Stamford is putting the finishing touches on a new $2.1 million shelter for the homeless, but it will accommodate only 67 people, and Ms. Moriarty and others concerned with the problem say that is already far too small.
Although it provides for a wide range of services, from employment and personal counseling to medical treatment, the kitchen at the new shelter will serve only meals brought in from outside.
And residents of the the Rice School Shelter, which is being used temporarily while the permanent center is being completed, are being tested for the disease. Of 20 tested so far, none have had the bacterium.


South Boston's destination for creative American cuisine serves up Ramen every Thursday evening during the cold weather season. On Thursday, February 1, Chef Nick Dixon welcomes Rebecca Arnold, Chef and Co-founder of Whole Heart Provisions, for a special Vegan Ramen Pop-Up event.
For one night only, guests can enjoy Rebecca Arnold's creative vegan twist on ramen. Rebecca will be serving up Vegan Ramen with sweet miso corn, charred scallions, and fried kale in a turmeric, roasted garlic, and ginger-infused vegan broth.

Thursday Ramen guests can also enjoy a special Asian-inspired bite to accompany the ramen each week (available additionally, a la carte).


Al Qaeda's latest list of "Wanted: Dead Or Alive for Crimes Against Islam," has been published in the jihadist magazine "Inspire." Eleven names feature on the list, together with their identifying photos. Rewards are up for grabs.
The Dutch government has announced a ban on face coverings, which will come into effect in 2013. Stiff fines will be imposed on those who flout the ban.
Amsterdam	- For a second time, the lawyer defending Geert Wilders has called for the judges to be dismissed because of apparent partiality. This time, today, an independent appeals panel agreed with him and the trial will have to start all over again.
Op-Ed: Who is Geert Wilders?
The anti-Islam, peroxide blonde Dutch politician and leader of the Party For Freedom (PVV) is currently on trial for charges relating to hate incitement. The question on most people's minds is who is this man called Geert Wilders and what drives him?
A leading Canadian columnist is taking the media to task for their silence over gay-bashing incidents carried out by Muslims in Amsterdam, once a veritable "anything goes" city where gays used to go about without fear of attack.
That Dutchman Geert Wilders is a rabble-rouser, a fear monger and a cheap populist is not in doubt, but it's also irrelevant. The real point is that his country ignored the valid reasons which have led to the rise of people like him for far too long.
Den Haag	- After 7 months under a care-taker cabinet, it seems that the Netherlands are close to getting a new government over the coming weekend, one which anti-Islam politician Geert Wilders has said will bring a 'new wind' blowing across the Low Countries.
Amsterdam	- Geert Wilders, the Dutch politician known for his clearly anti-Islamic stance and scheduled to speak at the 9/11 remembrance rally in New York coming Saturday, has been threatened with beheading for insulting Islam during his stay in Australia.
New York	- Dutch politician of 'Fitna' fame Geert Wilders is to speak at a rally in New York on September 11 to protest plans to build a mosque close to Ground Zero. Politicians in the Netherlands fear the worst for the country's image abroad.
Controversial Dutch politician Geert Wilders is planning an international "freedom alliance" against Muslims, which will include the United States, Canada, France, Germany and Britain.
Amsterdam	- Frank van Dalen Holland's ProGay Foundation has called for the setting up of a gay–straight alliance to help combat attacks on gay people in his country.
Dutch politician and movie maker Geert Wilders raised a storm of disapproval and angry reactions with his movie Fitna. At a recent appearance at Temple University he was jeered offstage.
Dutch MP Geert Wilders's invitation to a Free Speech Summit in Florida plunged him in the middle of a political row, with demands that Majority leader Rep. Adam Hasner resign his post for co-hosting the summit.
Did Amsterdam escape homegrown jihadist-terror attacks?
Dutch parliamentarians are livid about police claims that Amsterdam was only barely saved from a claimed jihadist-terrorist attack yesterday which 'may have been plotted by some residents with dual Moroccan-Dutch citizenship'. No explosives were found.
The Dutch High Council acquitted a man earlier judged guilty of racial hatred and -incitement for displaying a poster saying "Stop Tumor Named Islam'. Insulting a religion is not inciting racial hatred against a group of people, the court has ruled.
Neither Canada, the US, Israel nor The Netherlands will attend the forthcoming United Nations anti-racism conference in April. They say the first one in 2001 in Durban 'degenerated into expressions of intolerance, hate speech and anti-Semitism."
Dutch MP Geert Wilders would become the next prime minister of The Netherlands if elections were to be held this month. His Party for Freedom (PVV) now holds nine seats, but a top local pollster finds that he's now so popular that he would get 27 seats.
Dutch parliamentarian Geert Wilders was told by Pentagon officials that they 'feared for European stability due to the continent's rapid islamisation'. Wilders said this in an interview after a speech at the National Press Club in Washington, DC Friday.
Congressman Keith Ellison (D-MN), the first-ever US congressman to undertake a pilgrimage to Mecca, has slammed the Senate's Republican whip John Kyl 's sponsoring Dutch MP Geert Wilders's anti-jihadist film Fitna at The Capitol on Thursday.
The Republican Whip in the Senate Jon Kyl is hosting a screening at the Capitol building on Thursday for the anti-jihadist, liberal Dutch lawmaker Geert Wilders' short film Fitna, which cites passages from the Q'uran while showing Islamic terror acts.
Anti-jihadist Dutch MP Geert Wilders, barred from the UK, arrived in the United States on Monday, and appeared on Fox News twice; first as a guest on the Glenn Beck show and then on The O'Reilly Factor. Wilders says Europe needs a First Amendment.
Bat Yeor, an author writing about the relationships of Jews and Christians and Islam's jihad and sharia law, writes that the all-powerful Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) is behind the public, ongoing demonisation of Dutch MP Geert Wilders.
A new poll shows massive voter approval for anti-jihadist Dutch MP Geert Wilders - his party would become the country's second biggest. And Wilders was awarded the Oriana Fallaci Free Speech Award, which he receives in Rome on February 19.
Death threats against anti-jihadist Dutch MP Geert Wilders are ending up in two trials in The Hague on Monday. Three youths and man are charged with death-threats and 'deeply insulting racist language' against Wilders, who is guarded night and day.
A defiant Geert Wilders has stated he is seriously considering legal action against the British Home Secretary. Jacqui Smith took the extraordinary step of banning Wilders from the UK after he was invited to the House Of Lords to screen his film 'Fitna'.
Anti-jihadist Dutch libertarian MP Geert Wilders, who was kicked out of the UK on February 12 for trying to show his movie Fitna, (see video here) has published the speech he would have given in the House of Lords meeting he'd been invited to address.
Op-Ed: Whatever happened to free speech?
An editorial in the Telegraph asks 'what has happened free speech ' in the UK - contrasting the humiliating expulsion of Dutch anti-jihadist parliamentarian Geert Wilders on February 12 with the UK's protection of author Salman Rushdie 20 years ago.
Rampaging Moroccan youths fighting a turf war with police in the Dutch town of Gorinchem near Rotterdam attacked a policeman. torched rubbish bins, stoned passersby, and interfered with police trying to arrest troublemakers.

The Full Trailer For Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them Is Here
Delve back into the Wizarding World but in a different time and a much different place.
As fun and interesting the world of wizards was in the Harry Potter universe, you'd have to admit that by 7 books and 8 films, the charm had begun to wear off a bit. So whats the answer? New characters, new time, new place. One of the more unique things about the Harry Potter series is that almost nothing took place outside Hogwarts or Europe, so to see how things work across the pond is a legitimate fresh take.
The story follows a "Magizoologist" named Newt Scamander a wizard who found himself in New York for a brief spell (heh) but due to silly AMERICAN hi jinks things go bad and it looks like poor old Newt has to clean up a mess.
The cast here is great, with Eddie Redmayne as the lead, but we have Colin Farrell as a detective "No-Maj" which is American for Muggle. Katherine Waterson, Ezra Miller, Ron Perlman and more. David Yates, who is well versed when it comes to directing Harry Potter movies is directing.
The official statement here:
FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM is an all-new adventure returning us to the wizarding world created by J.K. Rowling. Academy Award winner Eddie Redmayne ("The Theory of Everything") stars in the central role of wizarding world magizoologist Newt Scamander, under the direction of David Yates, who helmed the last four "Harry Potter" blockbusters. FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM opens in 1926 as Newt Scamander has just completed a global excursion to find and document an extraordinary array of magical creatures. Arriving in New York for a brief stopover, he might have come and gone without incident…were it not for a No-Maj (American for Muggle) named Jacob, a misplaced magical case, and the escape of some of Newt's fantastic beasts, which could spell trouble for both the wizarding and No-Maj worlds. FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM also stars Katherine Waterston ("Steve Jobs," "Inherent Vice") as Tina; Tony Award winner Dan Fogler ("The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee") as Jacob; Alison Sudol ("Dig," "Transparent") as Tina's sister, Queenie; Ezra Miller ("Trainwreck") as Credence; two-time Oscar nominee Samantha Morton ("In America," "Sweet and Lowdown") as Mary Lou; Oscar winner Jon Voight ("Coming Home," TV's "Ray Donovan") as Henry Shaw, Sr.; Ron Perlman (the "Hellboy" films) as Gnarlack; Carmen Ejogo ("Selma") as Seraphina; Jenn Murray ("Brooklyn") as Chastity; young newcomer Faith Wood-Blagrove as Modesty; and Colin Farrell ("True Detective") as Percival Graves. The film marks the screenwriting debut of J.K. Rowling, whose beloved Harry Potter books were adapted into the top-grossing film franchise of all time. Her script was inspired by the Hogwarts textbook Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, written by her character Newt Scamander. The film reunites a number of people from the "Harry Potter" features, including producers David Heyman, J.K. Rowling, Steve Kloves and Lionel Wigram. Collaborating with Yates behind the scenes are: Oscar-winning director of photography Philippe Rousselot ("A River Runs Through It," the "Sherlock Holmes" movies), three-time Oscar-winning production designer Stuart Craig ("The English Patient," "Dangerous Liaisons," "Gandhi," the "Harry Potter" films), three-time Oscar-winning costume designer Colleen Atwood ("Chicago," "Memoirs of a Geisha," "Alice in Wonderland"), Oscar-winning visual effects supervisor Tim Burke ("Gladiator," the "Harry Potter" films), Oscar-nominated visual effects supervisor Christian Manz ("Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1"), and Yates' longtime editor Mark Day (the last four "Harry Potter" films). FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM is set for a worldwide release in 2D and 3D in select theatres and IMAX on November 18, 2016.

Every element of Fitness by the Sea was designed to create a fun and nurturing environment for every child ages 4 to 14.
From our carefully selected staff to our safe and beautiful locations and state of the art equipment, we offer campers an unmatched day camp experience.
We call it Growth, Caring, & Endless Fun!
At Fitness By The Sea, we offer incredible growth opportunities hidden in fun, creative, and exciting activities.
We treat our staff and your kids like members of the family.
We want your child to develop deep friendships with other kids and find positive, encouraging role models in our staff members.
Many parents report that their children make friendships at Fitness By The Sea that last for years.
We give campers the freedom to choose their own activities.
Everything we do at FBS serves a purpose and offering campers the opportunity to choose their own activities is no different.
A recent study by the American Camp Association revealed that kids need more opportunities to practice leadership and decision-making.
That's why we offer a variety of activities and let the kids decide what they want to do each day.
Because we want your kids to develop more self-confidence and leadership ability.
We believe that children learn by modeling the behavior of mentors, that's why staff members actively participate in all activities, instead of simply serving as a referee or watching from the sidelines.
We constantly encourage kids to get involved and have multiple staff members whose sole duty is to keep an eye out for kids who are sitting on the sidelines and bring them into activities.
These staff members are teachers and parents that are specifically trained to tap into each individual child's interests to help them select activities.
We believe that active kids are happy kids.
Many children who come to FBS don't have any interest in sports, cheerleading, dance, or any of our other "active" programs … and that's okay.
Instead of forcing children to participate in activities that they don't enjoy, we encourage them to explore new things they've never tried.
In many cases, we've discovered the kids who aren't very "active," just haven't found the activities they really love.
We don't allow teasing or bullying of any kind.
Staff members are trained to quickly intervene and resolve conflict in the camp, modeling this to campers and teaching them to how to treat one another with kindness and respect.
We believe that every child should be shown unconditional love and acceptance as they explore, learn, and grow.
Many kids come to FBS with pre-existing labels from their peers in school like jock, brainiac, or nerd.
We actively work with children to develop a positive self-image by nudging them out of their comfort zone and participating in unfamiliar activities.
We believe that fun and personal growth go hand in hand.
develop interdependence, confidence, and sportsmanship.
foster creativity, imagination, and self expression.
promote an active lifestyle, self-esteem, and perseverance.
cultivates self discipline, determination, and courage.
opens the mind to endless possibilities and interests.
We encourage children to "learn by doing" and our staff members are there to serve as mentors and participants during these activities.

How old are mentors typically?
Our current mentors range in age from 21-80, with the average age being 49.
Last month, we had matches do everything from sewing and making slime to working out and participating in a Pinewood Derby.
Last night I (Tim) sat down with Ryan and JoJo to celebrate their three year anniversary. We had a good visit. One thing that stood out to me was just how good of a relationship they have. JoJo was able to talk through many of the fun things they have done together; Bliss Climbing, kayaking, reading through Deuteronomy, and playing board games, to name a few. We also talked about the challenges that they have faced. Ryan, being in med school, has had times when he has had a rough life schedule, but they still managed to stay in good communication. A lot of this is due to mom's support of the match. They have a difficult conversations, but going through those they have built trust and respect.

Spotify adds a centralized hub to learn more about songwriters – TechCrunch
Turingo diciembre 18, 2020
Fuente original: Techcrunch.com
Royalties aside, songwriters are often unsung heroes of music making. Sure, some — like Carole King and Jimmy Webb — become well-known in their own right, but more often than not, names are relegated to the liner notes.
A new feature in Spotify seeks to correct that — or at least offers listeners a way to take deeper dives into the catalogues of the people behind their favorite songs. Songwriter Hub is a new offering that aggregates information about some of the industry's biggest and most prolific songwriters. Some are big names in their own right. Others not so much.
Accessible via the Browse tab, the Hub features songwriter playlists, podcasts and devoted songwriter pages. That last bit includes the likes of Gregg Wattenberg, Ant Clemons, Noonie Bao, Sia, Bebe Rexha, Irving Berlin, Ashley Gorley, Meghan Trainor, Fraser T Smith, Missy Elliott, Teddy Geiger, Ben Billions and Justin Tranter.
"Having a hub for songwriters is extremely important because people need to know who these people are who are helping create the soundtrack to our lives," Ariana Grande/Cardi B/Meek Mill writer Nija says in a press release tied to the news. "Songwriters deserve to be praised for their contributions just as much as artists & producers. A lot of times we get the short end of the stick, so I'm glad that there's a place where people can see who's writing their favorite songs."
The feature arrives today.

Time travel is theoretically possible, new calculations show. But that doesn't mean you could change the past.
ScreenshotDoc Brown and Marty McFly in 'Back to the Future.'
Time travel is possible based on the laws of physics, according to new calculations from researchers at the University of Queensland.
But time-travellers wouldn't be able to alter the past in a measurable way, they say – the future would stay the same.
Imagine you could hop into a time machine, press a button, and journey back to 2019, before the new coronavirus made the leap from animals to humans.
What if you could find and isolate patient zero? Theoretically, the pandemic wouldn't happen, right?
Not quite, because then future-you wouldn't have decided to time travel in the first place.
For decades, physicists have been studying and debating versions of this paradox: If we could travel back in time and change the past, what would happen to the future?
A new study offers a potential answer: Nothing.
"Events readjust around anything that could cause a paradox, so the paradox does not happen," Germain Tobar, the study's author and a student at the University of Queensland, told IFLScience.
His work, published in the journal Classical and Quantum Gravity last week, suggests that according to the rules of theoretical physics, anything you tried to change in the past would be corrected by subsequent events.
Put simply: It's theoretically possible to go back in time, but you couldn't change history.

The grandfather paradox
Physicists have considered time travel to be theoretically possible since Einstein came up with his theory of relativity. Einstein's calculations suggest it's possible for an object in our universe to travel through space and time in a circular direction, eventually ending up at a point on its journey where it's been before — a path called a closed time-like curve.
Still, physicists continue to struggle with scenarios like the coronavirus example above, in which time-travellers alter events that already happened. The most famous example is known as the grandfather paradox: Say a time-traveller goes back to the past and kills a younger version of his or her grandfather. The grandfather then wouldn't have any children, erasing the time-traveller's parents and, of course, the time-traveller, too. But then who would kill Grandpa?
A take on this paradox appears in the movie "Back to the Future," when Marty McFly almost stops his parents from meeting in the past — potentially causing himself to disappear.
Timothy A. Clary/Getty ImagesA dog dressed as Marty McFly from 'Back to the Future' attends the annual Tompkins Square Halloween Dog Parade in New York City, October 24, 2015.
To address the paradox, Tobar and his supervisor, Dr. Fabio Costa, used the "billiard-ball model," which imagines cause and effect as a series of colliding billiard balls, and a circular pool table as a closed time-like curve.
Imagine a bunch of billiard balls laid out across that circular table. If you push one ball from position X, it bangs around the table, hitting others in a particular pattern.
The researchers calculated that even if you mess with the ball's pattern at some point in its journey, future interactions with other balls can correct its path, leading it to come back to the same position and speed that it would have had you not interfered.
"Regardless of the choice, the ball will fall into the same place," Dr Yasunori Nomura, a theoretical physicist at UC Berkeley, told Business Insider.
University of QueenslandFabio Costa (left) with Germain Tobar (right). Tobar's calculations, supervised by Costa, suggest that time travel without paradoxes is possible.
Tobar's model, in other words, says you could travel back in time, but you couldn't change how events unfolded significantly enough to alter the future, Nomura said. Applied to the grandfather paradox, then, this would mean that something would always get in the way of your attempt to kill your grandfather. Or at least by the time he did die, your grandmother would already be pregnant with your mother.
Back to the coronavirus example. Let's say you were to travel back to 2019 and intervene in patient zero's life. According to Tobar's line of thinking, the pandemic would still happen somehow.
"You might try and stop patient zero from becoming infected, but in doing so you would catch the virus and become patient zero, or someone else would," Tobar told the University of Queensland.
Nomura said that although the model is too simple to represent the full range of cause and effect in our universe, it's a good starting point for future physicists.

Settles, McCray, Vanderbilt For Village Trustee In Park Forest
March 27, 2017 Gary Kopycinski Commentary, Elections, Latest Local News, Park Forest, Politics

Edited at 6:16 p.m. on March 28, 2017
Park Forest, IL-(ENEWSPF)- When it comes to running Village government, few things count more than critical thinking and smart use of experience. If you want to be a Village Trustee in Park Forest, it pays to pay attention. That means reading. Lots of it. That means meetings. Lots of them. That means immersing yourself in the numerous perplexities of local government, always working to stay ahead of the curve. Always working to stay informed.
It means setting aside one's ego (especially hard for politicians), and putting issues before personalities.
It means approaching public office first and foremost as a public service — not the place where one can grind a personal ax.
Toward that, eNews Park Forest offers two strong endorsements for Village Trustee: Theresa Settles (incumbent), and Robert McCray (incumbent). eNews Park Forest also endorses Jonathan Vanderbilt.
Theresa Settles and Robert McCray have proven tenures of leadership on the Village Board. Settles is a lifelong resident of Park Forest. McCray and his wife, Alicia, have lived in the Village for over 40 years.
Both have served on the Village Board with distinction and dedication. Both appear well-informed on the challenges facing Park Forest, well aware of the need for increasing the business base to offset residential property taxes, and the complicated issues Park Foresters face when it comes to school funding. The latter remains the primary reason taxes are so high in Park Forest.
Settles is a calm, reasoned voice on the board. Well-read, she keeps up on agenda items and offers thoughtful, cogent feedback on issues.
McCray, likewise, possesses a thorough grasp of the issues facing Park Forest, as well as the patience and dedication to keep the residents of Park Forest first when considering policies and ordinances.
That leaves the third vote.
It may surprise some familiar with the history of elections in Park Forest, but I am giving my third vote to Jon Vanderbilt.
Vanderbilt is a lifelong resident of Park Forest. While that is certainly not the deciding factor in whether or not to vote for him, he distinguishes himself from his opponents by his years of volunteer work in town, particularly on the Recreation and Parks Commission and the Environment Commission. He also led in an effort to start a community garden on Algonquin Street, and deserves recognition for these accomplishments.
Furthermore, Vanderbilt seems open to new ideas and creative thought, even though some of his proposals are not practical. His initiative for a property tax freeze for homeowners (presumably for the Village portion of the tax levy), while laudable, would result in the need for the Village to eliminate services and/or personnel. And for how long would such a freeze be in place? One year? Two years? More?
The Village has considered bottling water in the past, another one of Vanderbilt's suggestions, according to his candidate statement. But the costs associated with building a bottling and distribution plant are incredible. The water produced by the water treatment plant is also softened. This means sodium, and even though the Mayo Clinic says that "tap water contains very little sodium," Park Forest would likely be looking at creating a separate water treatment plant that does not soften water for a bottling process. At the forum of March 19, Vanderbilt switched it up a bit, proposing to convince Olympia Fields to buy water from Park Forest. Such an intergovernmental agreement is certainly a possibility, but is there any interest in Olympia Fields?
Suggestions by Vanderbilt relating to school taxes (implementing voter-approved referendums for all school tax levies and the establishment of an Education Commission) are outside the purview of village government. Olympia Fields created an education commission when current Judge Linzey D. Jones was mayor. The commission accomplished little, and did more to meddle in the business of the school boards and sullied the reputation of Olympia Fields.
But Vanderbilt is thinking, and I'm confident that, given the opportunity, he would contribute much to the brainstorming sessions that occur off-camera: the numerous budget sessions, the Saturday updates to the board, and more.
Vanderbilt should be given the opportunity. I believe he would be a strong addition to the make-up of the Village Board.
The others on the ballot, JeRome Brown, David T. Jones, and Marvin D. Holman Jr., simply do not demonstrate propensity to grapple with the critical issues facing the Village.
Brown has been a trustee for almost four years, but he has brought forth nothing original during his tenure. Combative at times, Brown has not demonstrated the ability to work with other board members, nor has he shown an understanding of how village government works. We remember well his campaign for mayor two years ago, when he clandestinely vowed to individual residents his desire to "fire" the Village manager and become a full-time mayor. He has also been dismissive on some of his erstwhile promises when he ran for trustee, such as his pledge that he and some partners were planning on opening a business in town.
This never happened. We doubt that it was ever a sincere pledge.
David Jones and Marvin Holman do not appear to have given much thought to their campaigns, nor have they demonstrated that they've researched the position of Village Trustee.
Jones is convinced that something is awry with the way Park Forest records metered water for residents, citing his own water bills as evidence. He wants an "investigation," but, besides his own claims regarding his personal water bills — which he did not have in his possession at the March 19 forum — he gives no evidence that an investigation is warranted. The Department of Public Works does watch and audit equipment. There have been errors in the past, but these are researched on a case-by-case basis, and there is no evidence that there is any village-wide conspiracy, as Jones alluded to during his comments at the forum.
Holman appears the least-prepared of all the candidates on the ballot this spring. Honestly, in his candidate's statement, which he provided to the Park Forest Non-Partisan Committee for public distribution, he repeatedly misspelled "Park Forest," writing it as "park forest," all small case, with one exception. Such carelessness should not be ignored by the voters.
So, eNews Park Forest is pleased to endorse the following candidates for election to the Village Board: Theresa Settles, RN BSN, Robert McCray, and Jonathan Vanderbilt. Hopefully, voters will give them every consideration, and vote for them when going to the polling places.
Erratum: An earlier version of this article misspelled the name of Judge Linzey D. Jones. We regret the error.

1996 Impala SS That has been a one owner car and in Sunny Tucson garage kept since day one. This car was meticulously cared for over the years and it shows. Original Dark Green Metallic Paint in excellent condition with the exception of a few dings and some spidering in the bumper covers(Pics below) . Paint is still mostly original, but the car has had a few professional touch ups over the years. Interior is completely original with the exception of the drivers side seat bottom which was replaced with a genuine leather GM replacement. Overall the interior looks very nice for its age. There is a small split in the front drivers seat back. (as noted in the pictures) The leather is still very supple for the most part. Carpet has one wear mark on the left side of the original drivers side floor mat, otherwise very nice with only a few light stains. Power seat works great as well as the power windows. Stereo sounds nice and all of the gauges function properly. Original rims have some clearcoat hazing from age. One rim has a scuff from a curb. (shown in pics.) G Force BFG tires have about 30% life left. 4 wheel disc brakes were done recently. Car has 128,500 miles on it. It was always meticulously maintained and if it needed something it was immediately addressed. 20,000 miles ago the engine developed an oil leak so it was removed and completely resealed. A new water pump and timing chain were installed at that time. This car runs and drives flawlessly. Carfax is clean and shows no accidents. It does show 2 owners, that is because it was titled under the owners business for the first 5 years of its life. It still retains its original owner, even comes with the manuals and window sticker from the dealership. Ready to enjoy!

German Air Force to Move ICU Patients as COVID Cases Rise
Friday, 26 November 2021 05:00 AM
BERLIN (AP) — The German air force will begin assisting the transfer of intensive care patients Friday as the country sees a new record number of daily coronavirus cases.
German news agency dpa reported that a Luftwaffe A310 medevac plane will fly seriously ill patients from the southern town of Memmingen to North Rhine-Westphalia state Friday afternoon.
Hospitals in southern and eastern regions of Germany have warned they are running out of intensive care beds because of the large number of seriously ill COVID-19 patients.
The country's disease control agency said 76,414 newly confirmed cases were reported in the past 24 hours. The Robert Koch Institute, a government agency, said Germany also had 357 new deaths from COVID-19, taking the total since the start of the outbreak to 100,476.
Also Friday, German Health Minister Jens Spahn said airlines coming from South Africa will only be able to transport German citizens, and travelers will need to go into quarantine for 14 days whether they are vaccinated or not.
Spahn said the move was a response to a newly discovered variant.
"The last thing we need is to bring in a new variant that will cause even more problems," he said.

(3BL Media/Justmeans) - The London Stock Exchange (LSE) is one of the world's oldest stock exchanges. It can trace its history back more than 300 years, and most would not really associate this great British institution with sustainability. Yet it does a lot of work in this arena—now it has partnered with the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Stock Exchanges (SSE) initiative. It joins nine other exchanges in the U.S., Europe, Africa and Asia to promote sustainable business practices among publicly listed companies worldwide. The LSE is at the heart of global financial markets and is in a unique and privileged position to promote sustainability, and corporate responsibility. Ultimately, this collaboration is about supporting stable global long-term economic growth and a vision for a sustainable future—a key element for promoting much-needed investment in sustainable development!
Stock exchanges have a crucial role to play in enhancing both the quality and quantity of environmental, social and corporate governance reporting by companies listed on their exchanges. Only three percent of the world's largest companies currently disclose information about their Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) performance. Better disclosure will improve the usefulness and comparability of information being reported in each market, enabling institutional investors to better manage risk and make more informed investment decisions. This SSE initiative is delivering the message that stock exchanges are a critical player in bringing investors, companies, regulators and other major stakeholders together to help make corporate sustainability a transformative force in achieving a shared, secure and sustainable future.
The LSE itself is very committed to working with companies, investors and regulators to design more transparent and sustainable capital markets. It believes their engagement will enable asset owners and asset managers to use their influence to direct capital and send positive market signals to those companies that exhibit best sustainability practices.
LSE's collaboration with the SSE comes as momentum builds among investors and stock exchanges to promote corporate sustainability disclosure that is consistent and comparable across markets. This October, 2014 the fourth biennial SSE "Global Dialogue" will take place at the UN's headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland and the initiative's flagship event, the "Global Dialogue" will bring together CEO's of stock exchanges, companies and institutional investors, alongside high-level policy makers and capital market regulators. This unique gathering offers a global platform to demonstrate leadership and understanding of the sustainability-related opportunities and challenges facing the capital markets today. Together, they are exploring how exchanges can work with investors, regulators and companies to enhance corporate transparency, and ultimately performance, on environmental, social and corporate governance issues.

This term we are establishing the foundations for good writing including using the correct punctuation, handwriting, spelling and additions to sentences including description, connectives and sentence type.
We are looking at different types of sentences; commands (bossy), statements (true) and questions which will help the children use a wider range of sentence types in their written work. We are also looking at adjectives and adverbs and again how they can add detail and improve the children's writing for the audience.
We are learning this through a range of texts both narrative; Oliver's Vegetables and The Little Red Hen and non-fiction including recipes, linking in with our topic focussed around food.
As part of guided reading children read with both the class teacher and teaching assistant on a weekly basis with a focus on using a scheme called 'Reciprocal Reading' which allows the children to explore texts, predict outcomes, discuss things/vocabulary that confuses them, question the plot and characters and summarise the events. All of which help the children become confident, natural readers. We also focus in on specific skills such as decoding - applying their phonics and inference - developing their understanding of a text.
We are focusing on number skills this term.
*problem solving applying the children's understanding of addition and subtraction.
*learning the number bonds to 10 and 20 and the associated subtraction facts.
If you go to the useful links section on our class page I have suggested possible website that will help children in these areas.
The outcome for this unit is that children are able to have a party to celebrate all their hard work so far. They will plan, the decorations, food, music, costumes etc.
As part of this topic we will looking specifically at food; where it comes from (Geography), the different food groups (Science), how food it used in art (Art and Design).

Well, I graduated over a year ago with a Master's degree in Violin Performance. It's taken this long for me to love my instrument again. Honestly, the rigors of school do not agree with my performance modality at all. I've barely practiced except to warm up and teach. I've even taken a quasi hiatus from most things musical, including this wonderful forum on V.com. But I'm back now, and I'm looking forward to getting back to work for me.
First, I've moved to California. I've got a new bow, valued at $4,000. The most expensive and by far the nicest bow I've ever owned. My goal is to be a private teacher, youth orchestra coach, and a major symphony player. 2 down, 1 to go. I've already built a successful studio of approximately 25 students, and I'm a coach for the Community Youth Orchestra of Southern California, thanks to its director and V.com member, Gene Wie.
My audition confidence is nil, so preparing for a major audition is going to take a lot of work. I've emailed the Los Angeles Philharmonic, requesting audition information for inquiring violinists, despite the fact that there are no seats currently available. Not surprising, given the magnitude of the orchestra, but I'd still like to prepare for the day that there are. I've emailed the Orange County Symphony over 20 times with no response, and I also sent an email to the Pacific Symphony the other day. I heard back from the LA Phil, saying that my request had been heard, was being transferred to the appropriate department, and I should hear from someone shortly. That was a couple days ago, but I'm not worried.
I ordered the first book of common orchestra audition excerpts, and I'll learn them all, then get the 2nd book, and then the 3rd. I'm working on the Sibelius VC, and some unaccompanied Bach. I'm going to start the Vitali Ciaccona, a piece I was disinterested to play before, but now I'm reconsidering.
I ordered a Gotz E fine tuner. My Hill tuner is warped or something, it's not operating very smoothly anymore, and the typical fixes aren't working. I'm playing with strings. I have Dominants with a Jargar E (regular, not the forte) and though I like the Dominants, I'm not sold on the Jargar and the Dominants die quickly. I also need a different chin rest again. The Teka I have is too slanted. I need something flatter, but still side-mounted with a dip in the side.
I hope it goes well for you, good luck!
Charles: Yes, I am very interested! Can you send me a picture of your chinrest on your violin?

Hebbar: An Artist's Quest
Client: K K Hebbar Art Foundation
The National Gallery of Modern Art was holding the K K Hebbar Retrospective show to celebrate the centenary year of the artist. Kattingeri Krishna Hebbar, one of the most prominent modernist artists, art educationist and institution-maker in India. His works include motifs from traditional Indian art, various international travels, reflections on socio-political conditions, literary classics such as the Silapadikaram and themes from Yakshagana abound in his expressions which range from oil canvases to line drawings. Mulk Raj Anand, enamored by the rhythm and energy of his line drawings, called them the 'Singing Lines' which, till date, continue to be identified as his most iconic signature style. The book titled Hebbar: An Artist's quest celebrates his artistic journey from realism to abstraction.

An examination of the lyrics of worship songs, how they could and should be better, in Nick Page's trademark humorous style. Have you ever felt frustrated with the words of the worship songs that we sing? Why are they so forgettable? Why are they filled with such weird language? Where have all the writers gone? Combining humour with strong argument, Nick Page analyses how worship song writers have bought into a disposable, 'pop-song' model; how they have filled their songs with a kind of semi-Biblical code and how songs suffer from poor technique and a lack of specialist lyric writers. Above all it encourages writers to really think about the words of their songs and whether they really communicate truth about God – truth which should lead to worship. Passionate, controversial and laugh-out-loud funny, this is essential reading for Christians today.

Erik Alexander and his husband Douglas are fathers to two beautiful little girls. But despite their family being an example of love, respect, and affection, that doesn't stop others from judging them.
But as anyone in love knows, the opinions of others aren't what matters.
"He pushed forward anyway and ended up getting a full scholarship to Loyola University. He went to college and also started a fundraiser to bring scientific instruments to local classrooms across New Orleans by climbing Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa. After Loyola he graduated from LSU New Orleans School of Medicine.
In 2014, the couple got engaged and bought a house the following year. That also happened to be the year when the Supreme Court ruled in favor of marriage equality. Erik and Douglas were married in the French Quarter on August 1st of 2015.
The couple brought their first daughter home on December 4th, 2015 and were able to adopt again a year and a half later. That's when Alexander left his job as a general manager of a restaurant in the French Quarter to become a stay-at-home dad.
The couple has now been together for 13 years and knows that the love they have for each other can overcome any amount of hatred directed their way. They aim to lead by loving example and use the strength of their relationship to overlook and move beyond the judgment of others without letting it interfere with their lives or happiness.
Now the couple is concentrating on raising strong and respectful daughters who appreciate people's differences so they can grow up in a world more accepting than the one their fathers have faced.

The Life of a Legend: Chris Conover Profile
As he walked into the room, you could see the enthusiasm radiating through his smile. One could tell he enjoyed his line of work. The way he went into such intricate detail about his career revealed that he absolutely loved his job. This man was a true inspiration, a man who touched the heart of every person he encountered.
Born in the heart of Florida, Christopher "Buzz" Conover is a senior political reporter for National Public Radio as well as a part time adjunct professor at the University of Arizona. Born in the heart of Florida, Conover was given the opportunity to intern at a local radio station in Miami 1989. It was here that he met his mentor Henry Barrow, to whom he still reaches out for advice to this day about different interviews and job opportunities.
Through his work in Miami, he became completely and utterly hooked on radio broadcasting. Eventually he was offered a position to anchor a nightly news show while still working at the radio station.
Throughout his successful career, Conover has been able to take part in some amazing projects. He has interviewed each U.S. president since George H.W. Bush and even had the honor of interviewing civil rights activist Rosa Parks.
Whenever he finds spare time, he enjoys outdoor activities, including sailing, hiking and backpacking throughout Arizona and teaches.
While Conover admits that traditional journalism might be a declining profession, his message to young journalists is, "Don't let it die!"
Avatar Zeina: Zany mentor leaves lasting impact
Fly as an exquisite butterfly, with a sting like a killer bee. She's not the one to mess with. To say she is beautiful would be an understatement. Not only are her features appealing to the eye, but her spirit is just as charming. To call her smart wouldn't even be the half of it. She's clever and always quick on her feet, ready with at least three different comebacks at any given moment. Her charismatic sense of style is a creative masterpiece, saturated with vibrant colors and class. She carries herself with confidence and grace, ready for whatever the world throws at her. She's absolutely incredible, to say the least, and a person I am proud to say is not only a mentor but someone I call friend.
Zeina Peterson is a remarkable woman. Although I have known her just a week, the impact she has had on me is indescribable. She has taught me so much in a matter of days. Initially, I was confused why she referred to everyone as queen. But over the course of this week, I realized something about her: She sees the beauty and value in everyone. Zeina reminded me that we are all so important and worth more than gold, so why would we allow anyone to treat us differently? We literally are queens, and she saw that in us before we even saw it in ourselves. It is easy to feel that mistakes define who you are as a person, but Zeina showed me that these faults do not determine who we are but help shape us into the person we will become.
Seeing her gives me hope. It is easy to feel that things are never going to change, but after hearing some of her story, I see that I am still so young and have so much time to grow and become the woman I am supposed to be. Zeina is such an amazing young woman in so many different ways. It is nice to see someone who has skin just like mine and hair just like mine; a young black woman just like me, doing something with her life. Oftentimes women in general, and black women especially, are seen as inferior and unworthy. Zeina is the complete opposite of this stereotype, and I aspire to defy the odds, just like her.
Writing keeps people alive even long after they're gone. Years from now, when we are all long gone, I want people to remember this wonderful, crazy, undeniably marvelous human named Zeina Peterson. Of all the people worth remembering, she is, without a shadow of a doubt, one of them.

As a church leader and intercessor, I am burdened for the Church in this hour. The body of Christ desperately needs a unified voice in the public square, yet the intimidation and threats can be overwhelming, causing us to hold back and hesitate to speak. Many pastors are reluctant to talk about politics in their churches because of the potential backlash from members. The fear of losing congregants or financial support is an underlying concern for many church leaders when addressing controversial political topics. There are also those who believe that legislative issues and governing policies have no place in church life.
God created government to establish order, starting with the first family in Genesis (Gen 1:26-28). It is a biblical principle of stewardship and order (Prv 8:14-16). Politics (not mentioned in Scripture) is man's activities within government and focuses more on party priorities, methodologies, and personal preferences.
Laws of the land determine the level of freedom believers have in sharing the gospel (1 Peter 2:13-14).
We may have strong biblical convictions concerning our faith practices, but without laws supporting those beliefs and values, our Christian witness will be greatly hindered and limited. It is our elected officials who make those laws which we are legally bound to obey.
The Church is accountable to the Lord for our collective witness (Mic 5:15).
When believers take part in the election process, we are being faithful stewards and responsible citizens (Rom 13:5-7). We can bring positive change to our nation by electing officials who are God-fearing and God-appointed (Rom 13:1). If we don't, we have relinquished our God-given role to non-believers by default.
We equip believers with the principles of God's Word and a Kingdom mindset (2 Tim 3:16-17).
Living out our faith in the public square is essential to our witness and demonstration of Kingdom values. Addressing issues based on scriptural truths empowers believers in their walk and strengthens our testimony.
Our standard for truth, life, and liberty is based on God's Word. We pray for all government leaders regardless of political party but vote for candidates who support and uphold biblical values that are core to the Christian faith.
Even though pastors cannot endorse any specific candidate, they can preach the Word of God as it pertains to various issues. Thus, any disagreement that comes will be based on disagreeing with God's Word, not necessarily political ideologies. Coming from a Kingdom mindset can enable pastors to lead effectively and provide the needed direction the Church desperately needs in this hour.
We are being tested as a Church in this electoral process. Will we engage with the world we have been commissioned to reach or will we shrink back in fear? Can we declare the word of God with courage, demonstrating the same authority that Jesus had when he spoke of His Father's Kingdom? Will we stand with our pastors and church leaders when they speak up for righteousness? Prayer is the starting point but should result in a unified voice from the Church and a bold proclamation of the Kingdom of God.
