Today is the 45th anniversary of Earthrise. We take it for granted now but, along with Blue Marble, it's the most important and famous photo ever taken. In a world saturated with fakery and cynicism, it's easy to ignore the magnitude of its impact. But in 1968, this photo changed everything.
Nowadays people don't stop to think twice about what they're seeing—that precious blue jewel engulfed in the pitch black nothingness of space. However, this was a vision that deeply affected the view of ourselves as species and our place in the world and the universe. Earthrise truly made everyone realize that we're all living in a fragile tiny ball that we needed to protect in order to survive. Humans are—for now—alone in the void.
Some of the immediate and most obvious effects of these images were the promotion and passing of the Clean Water Act the Clean Air Act in the US, and the first Earth Summit, the UN Conference on the Human Environment. At the private level, people started to organize worldwide non-for-profit organizations, like Greenpeace or Doctors Without Borders.
Earthrise had a profound impact on our attitudes toward our home planet, quickly becoming an icon of the environmental movement.
Borman: Oh my God! Look at that picture over there! Here's the Earth coming up. Wow, that is pretty!
Borman: (Laughter). You got a colour film, Jim?

State Reps Floren and Camillo to Hold Town Hall Info Session on Tolls
By: greenwichfreepress | April 30, 2019
State Representatives Livvy Floren (R-149) and Fred Camillo (R-151) will host an informational tolls forum in the Greenwich Town Hall Meeting Room on Monday, May 13, 2019 beginning at 7:00pm.
Presenting at the forum will be Transportation Committee Ranking Members State Representative Laura Devlin (R-134) and State Senator Henri Martin (R-31).
"My motto has always been 'needs before nice-to-haves.' Modernizing our transportation infrastructure is a need. Tolls are neither," Rep Floren said. "Last year, we avoided tolls by using existing revenue to fund critical infrastructure and transportation projects. This year, the state's Bond Commission was able to do the same while staying within the newly enforced $1.9 billion bond cap."
Floren said Republicans have an alternative plan to tolls based on this strategy called Prioritize Progress.
"We believe the state has enough revenue to meet its primary needs, namely transportation, education, and critical social services for children, the elderly and the disabled," Floren continued. "Beyond those core functions of government, we need to be selective with our remaining funds because people are losing confidence in Hartford's ability to control spending. Each year, the state asks for more and more money from our middle class and business community, with little to show for it. Before we consider tolls, the administration and the Democratic majority must prove they can do more with less, and make the best use of the taxpayers' money."
Rep Camillo said Representative Devlin and Senator Martin who will provide facts about tolls.
"I've been saying it throughout session and I will say it again – tolls are another tax that will disproportionately affect commuters and the middle class," he said. " ore than 70 percent of toll revenue will come directly from our pockets and the economic impact will be widespread."
Camillo said that with tolls, small businesses will need to raise prices to compensate for the added operational costs.
"Families will need to live on even smaller budgets and will have less disposable income. Workers will be forced to alter their commutes or search for other employment options," he continued.
Camillo said travelers will attempt to avoid tolls by using backroads, which will cause traffic in towns and neighborhoods.
"There are viable and concrete alternatives that are being ignored," he said. "We must seriously discuss and consider these options before we continue to nickel and dime the residents of our great state. We need to look at the bigger picture before making such a consequential policy decision."
Last month, the Transportation Committee approved three toll-related proposals on party-line votes with all Republican members in opposition.
S.B. 423 (Senate Democrats' bill) – An Act Concerning Funding for Connecticut's Transportation Future
H.B. 7202 (the governor's bill) – An Act Concerning the Sustainability of Connecticut's Transportation Infrastructure
H.B. 7280 (House Democrats' bill) – An Act Concerning Support for Transportation Infrastructure and the Creation of the Connecticut Transportation Finance Authority
The representatives are encouraging residents from both sides of the debate to attend the forum.
Following the presentation, attendees will be given the opportunity to ask questions.
House and Senate Republicans are planning an anti-tolls rally on Saturday, May 18 on the North Lawn of the State Capitol in Hartford from noon until 3:00 p.m.

The Success of Healthcare in Cuba
Due to the dwindling trade restrictions between Cuba and the United States during the Obama administration, people around the world are getting a look into a country that has been closed off from much of the world for many years. While the country is known for its slow wealth creation and high levels of state control, healthcare in Cuba has made massive strides since the country's revolution in 1959.
Cuba's healthcare is recognized as being among the world's most efficient and high quality systems. Former United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon stated that the country's healthcare system should be used as a model for many developing countries.
Since the 1959 revolution, when Fidel Castro gained power in Cuba, the socialist ideology emphasized that access to healthcare is a fundamental human right. With this belief inscribed in Cuba's constitution, the country focuses on preventative approaches to medicine. From providing annual, mandatory checkups to the most complex surgeries, healthcare in Cuba remains free of charge.
With this high level of accessibility, the country has made many health improvements since the beginning of the Castro regime. These include:
A 98 percent full immunization record by the age of 2 that protect children from 13 illnesses.
Low infant mortality rates. Cuba's rate is extremely close to that of the United States' with less than 5 deaths per 1000 births. This statistic makes Cuba the best performer in the developing world.
High life expectancies, with men living an average of 77 years and women living an average of 81. These expectancies are almost identical to those in the United States.
Record doctor to patient ratios that surpass many developed nations. Every doctor cares for around 150 patients.
A well-educated public regarding individual health. Family doctors, who make mandatory visits annually, discuss issues such as smoking, eating and exercising with patients while also providing tailored recommendations to remain healthy.
World leading medical schools. Former U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon stated that Cuba's medical education system is the world's most advanced. In 2014, over 11,000 students from over 120 nations pursued a career in medicine at the Cuban Institution.
A significant focus on research and development. The focus on innovation has been attributed to the U.S. embargo that prohibited trade in medicines for Cuba. This made investing in medical sciences a necessity to provide quality health care.
By the mid-1980s, Cuba developed the world's first Meningitis B vaccine. In 2012, Cuban doctors developed Cimavax, the first therapeutic cancer vaccine. Additionally, The World Health Organization (WHO) recognized the country as being the first to eliminate HIV transmission between mothers and their children in 2015. These outcomes are found to be a direct result of the huge investments made in Cuba's biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries.
Healthcare in Cuba has benefited more than just the citizens of its country. Every year, Cuba sends around 50,000 health professionals abroad, providing care to developing countries. In only one decade, Cuba's contribution to Mission Miracle, a program supporting people with sight impairments, has restored around 3.5 million individuals' vision. Many of these contributions are made in Latin America, where 165 Cuban institutions maintain 49 ophthalmological centers and 82 surgical units in 14 countries.
However, Cuba's support reaches beyond its own continent and into Africa. The Cuban chemical and biopharmaceutical research institute LABIOFAM launched a vaccination campaign against malaria in 2014 in more than 15 West African nations. Additionally, during the recent Sierra Leone Ebola crisis, over 100 Cuban doctors and nurses were of assistance.
Castro was an advocate for providing international health support, as he believed by assisting developing countries, Cuba was preventing the expansion of epidemics that could spread to its own nation if not handled correctly. In addition to the philanthropy aspect, Cuban doctors and nurses working in over 77 countries generate $8 billion a year, which makes international health services the country's largest export.
While the country's GDP per capita is ranked 137th in the world, healthcare in Cuba has demonstrated that a poor country can create dramatic developments in its population's quality of life for the long term. Castro's form of leadership, while questioned in many other areas, has improved the living standards for Cuba's poorest with regard to medical needs.
The WHO stresses that Cuba provides a prime example of a developing nation with limited resources that can provide an efficient health care system to all of its population. However, for such an outcome, the political institutions of the country must make human beings the center of their policies and not their own wallets.

United States / Coronavirus Insights
Paycheck Protection Program Distribution and Analysis Update
by Dan Spitzer, Industry Research Analyst
As the United States faces unprecedented levels of economic distress and unemployment, the Payment Protection Program (PPP) has provided a number of businesses with forgivable loans to support their employee's salary. Due to the programs' popularity, the current administration signed a new law extending the deadline for applications for the $650 billion loan program. As of June 30th, the program has issued 4.9 million loans averaging $107,000, and now has $132 billion remaining. Though, the program has faced increased scrutiny and calls for transparency for loan data as concerns of fraud and abuse have become more prevalent.
Healthcare comes out on top
Many trends regarding loan allocations by industry have continued with newer PPP data released by the Small Business Administration. Accordingly, the Health Care and Social Assistance (IBISWorld report 62), Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services (54), and Construction (23) received 12.9%, 12.7% and 12.4% of total funds, respectively. The shift of healthcare sector to the top is likely due to the increased demand for employees in hospital settings (62211) to support the recent rise in coronavirus cases. Additionally, California, Texas and New York continue to account for the highest amount loans at $68.2 billion, $41.1 billion and $38.3 billion, respectively, which is roughly in line with each states' population and loan count. As for lender type diversity, banks account for an overwhelming majority of loans, net dollars and jobs retained. Commercial banks (52211) have lent small businesses nearly $500 billion over 4.4 million loans, with JPMorgan Chase Bank at the top, lending over $29 billion. Next in line, though accounting for a much smaller portion are credit unions (52213), which lent $9.7 billion over 196,000 loans.
Rising scrutiny despite positive statistics
The PPP has been quoted with compensating 51.1 million jobs; however, there have been serious calls for greater scrutiny as the initial $350 billion was nearly drained after two weeks. Already, $30 billion in PPP funds have been returned from chain restaurants (72211a), hoteliers (72111) and major public companies after increased negative press coverage. The SBA program was initially designed for smaller local businesses rather than the larger companies with over 500 employees and greater access to capital. However, industries with close connections to banks have shown to have an easier time securing loans. Still, economists require more data to evaluate the overall success of the program.

There are so many reasons to be a lover of crustaceans, and right now it's prime time to imbibe in the most popular delicacy of our seas. It's easy to become a happy "crustaphile", just hold a prawn up to your face, it's even in the shape of a smile.
I remember my first foray into becoming a lover of crustaceans. My Dad got pounds and pounds of prawns and brought them home for Mom to steam. With newspaper spread all across the kitchen, our family of eight circled around. With the bucket of steamed prawns piled high for the picking, eight sets of elbows poised for the attack. Diving in, us Minnesotans didn't know what to do with their firmly attached exo-skins. Mom showed us how to peel the thin orange armor off, revealing the sweet meat underneath. Taking a cautious flavor savoring bite sixteen eyes popped open. Woohoo! Once we all got the hang of it, it was a frenzy. The four boys started popping the whole prawn in their mouths, dropping them from high above or pitching them in each other's pie hole. Dad offered extra "atta boy" points if you dared to eat the tail, my sister and I scored. I will admit that I'm now fully allergic to crustaceans, but I still dream about them and want to tell you why I think you should eat them for me!
Eating the tail of a prawn may benefit you Papa points, but eating the sweet, savory meat is good for you too. I have been very interested in the articles I've been reading lately on choline (yes, I am a self declared nutrition nerd). I am happy to tell you that choline, a little mentioned very essential nutrient, is found in crustaceans in great amounts. Your body does actually make some of its own choline but finding foods to focus on for this important nutrient is a good idea. Whole eggs and liver are awesome and finfish are great too but prawns weighing in at 115 mg per 3 ounce serving are fighting for their place in your choline favorites too. This nutrient is important for cell structure, function and signaling, the transportation of fat and for nerve transmission. Okay what does that mean in real time? It means a lack of Choline can lead to heart disease, liver disease and neurological disorders. There are studies out there that suggest a lack of choline can affect memory and may play a role in dementia. It has also been noted that it might play a role in cardiovascular disease prevention and possibly cancer and fatty liver disease. Most of us don't get enough choline especially pregnant women. It's critically important for the babies' proper brain development and to prevent neural tube defects. This need continues even after the baby is born. The AMA has even recently signaled that choline content needs to be increased in today's prenatal vitamins. Prenatally, early childhood, young women, men and older populations seem to need to focus on getting this nutrient through food the most. Wait a minute, isn't that almost everyone?
The bottom line is that we need more choline and happily being a crustaphile (a word I made up for the lovers of crustaceans), is a fun way to do that. Chef Jeremy has some awesome tips on how to buy good prawns and shrimp (Chefs Blog) and our chef's at Salty's are offering you some fantastically delicious preparations of prawns this month. I hear the prawn and avocado bagette (Recipe) and our "jump in your mouth" prawns saltimbocca (Recipe) are some easily addicting choices.


There was Short Movie Competition in my previous company. As you can read in this post, I won for 1st winner and 3rd winner in last year (2013). Actually, it just because 3 participants who submitted their movies. Two of them is me hehehe. When the competition info was published, many office mates asked me to join this competition. Some of them just over expected that I will be the winner. Moreover at the first, HR forbade me to join this competition without make sense reason. Eventually I got the idea and tried to produce short movie.
I recruited members to small team. I asked Shaka as Cast, Mba Leon as Make Up Artist who will makeover Shaka looked older, and Mas Ageng as Production Designer/ Production Assistant who prepared properties and assisted me regarding technical issues. The script was developed just for one night, then we execute it for two days. We tried to complete it just one day. However, missing some shots caused us to spend more time in another day.

Developer Selected for Chelsea Soldiers' Home Domiciliary Project
by Independent Staff • October 6, 2021 • 0 Comments
The Baker Polito Administration announced the designation of Pennrose, LLC., as the Soldiers' Home in Chelsea domiciliary campus redevelopment partner. This designation follows a competitive bid process that included request for proposals (RFP) and an extensive developer selection process involving a collaboration across multiple state agencies including the Soldiers' Home in Chelsea, the Department of Veterans' Services, the Executive Office of Health and Human Services, and the Division of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance (DCAMM).
The RFP requires Pennrose to ensure that the redeveloped site offers a full complement of services to Soldiers' Home in Chelsea domiciliary residents and staff at the redeveloped site, including case management, clinical care, prepared meals, and transportation. The redevelopment is expected to break ground in 2023, and will include 248 units of mixed-income housing across a broad range of household sizes.
"The Soldiers' Home in Chelsea redevelopment project represents our administration's continued commitment to providing the Commonwealth's veterans with the housing and care they deserve," said Governor Charlie Baker. "The selection of this development partner is a major step towards better meeting the needs of veteran residents, their families, and the community now and in the future."
"For several years, our administration has engaged in a comprehensive strategic planning process to address the future needs of the Soldiers' Home in Chelsea," said Lt. Governor Karyn Polito. "Today's announcement is a significant step forward toward realizing the vision that has been laid out, and we look forward to Pennrose's redevelopment project."
The 8.7-acre site is centered along Crest Avenue and is currently home to approximately 150 veteran residents in single room occupancy style accommodations, with shared bathrooms and central dining. The Soldiers' Home in Chelsea Campus Redevelopment Master Plan was completed by DCAMM in 2019 and identified program and campus goals to provide needed capital investment, refresh the historic domiciliary program, and provide a 21st century, state-of-the-art, environment for an evolving veterans community with diverse residential needs.
"An exciting component of the renovation of the Soldiers' Home in Chelsea includes the creation of affordable and responsive housing for our Veterans," said Secretary of Health and Human Services Marylou Sudders. "Today's announcement is the critical next step in revitalizing the campus of the Soldiers' Home in Chelsea."
"The Soldiers' Home in Chelsea is an historic fixture in the community that we have worked diligently to preserve the key services of health care and housing for Veterans in Massachusetts who have served our nation," said Cheryl Lussier Poppe, Secretary of Veterans' Services. "From the start, Pennrose demonstrated they excel in redeveloping complex properties into dynamic affordable housing that serves a diverse Veteran population."
"Pennrose, LLC. brings a wealth of expertise in veterans preference housing and multi-phased, adaptive reuse, campus developments" said DCAMM Commissioner Carol Gladstone. "They are a strong partner that is committed to being responsive to the needs of the Commonwealth's Veterans' community."

Two decades in the making – the powerful strategies behind the Amazon recommendation engine
Built to humanize digital experiences for consumers, the Amazon recommendation engine has transformed eCommerce. And by taking a page from Amazon's book, brands can leverage winning strategies for their own personalization efforts.
Leah Retta
Content Manager, Dynamic Yield
This article is an excerpt from Dynamic Yield's original book about Amazon, "The Chronicles of a Personalization Giant." An in-depth analysis on how Amazon tailors the customer experience, chapter one outlines the strategy behind the retailer's product discovery and merchandising tactics, including the sophistication of the Amazon product recommendation engine.
Amazon's investment in personalization dates back to the early 2000s when it designed a plan to create a robust product recommendation engine after realizing the potential payoffs in becoming a powerful hub for product discovery. And to Amazon, it was clear that building a digital home for product inventory was not enough. Developing and continuously enhancing the Amazon recommendation engine algorithm, with access to an unprecedented amount of consumer data, could completely transform the way customers are matched with items they would most likely be interested in purchasing.
Not only would it work to provide pleasant user experiences, but more importantly, ones that felt personal. Before the era of eCommerce, the way consumers shopped was heavily influenced by the opinions and recommendations of friends and family – a component of product discovery Amazon sought to mimic online. "Discovery should be like talking with a friend who knows you, knows what you like, works with you at every step, and anticipates your needs," write Brent Smith and Greg Linden, two industry titans specializing in personalization and recommendations at Amazon and Microsoft, respectively. From the onset, the end goal was to harness the power of machines and data to humanize the digital experience for consumers.
Since filing its first patent for the Amazon recommendation engine in 2001, the company has been uniquely marrying key customer data points across its digital properties to design tailored experiences for both known and unknown site visitors. And while endless variables have contributed to the company's dramatic rise, its personalization efforts have indisputably played an integral role. As a result, Amazon has eaten up the eCommerce market, serving as a portal for product discovery, all while it continues to rapidly expand its reach into entertainment, subscriptions, food, voice, wearables, and more.
A masterful recommendation strategy
Recommendations truly are the bread-and-butter of Amazon's personalization operation. By far the most sophisticated and distinguished element of the company's eCommerce efforts, recommendations are visible across every page, channel, and device, employing dozens of unique and innovative strategies and taking endless forms. Upon conducting our research, 45 different recommendation widgets were visible on the app homepage alone – a true testament to the company's devotion to promoting product discovery and a signal of the power behind the Amazon machine learning recommendation engine.
Each recommendation widget served is based on a number of variables, including but not limited to:
Trending: near you / on Amazon / by category / by shopping trend / by season
Saved items or lists
Deals, bargains, or discounts
Purchases other customers have completed after viewing similar products
Curated top picks for customers
As a hub for product discovery, constantly serving recommendations goes back to Amazon's core belief for retail: never pass up an opportunity to capture a sale. Now that Amazon.com has increasingly become the initial starting point for discovery, the company is doubling down on its top-of-funnel marketing efforts. And a large part of the Amazon recommendation engine revenue generated is a direct result of the company's sizable investment in personalization.
Having mastered traditional recommendations, Amazon's approach has matured as it now invests in finding unique ways to uplevel its widgets with unconventional eCommerce tactics. For starters, Amazon tends to include dozens of recommendations on both a single page and also within a single widget. Its eCommerce team has also ensured the experience of browsing through recommendation carousels is consistent across channels, creating a pleasant and familiar user experience on every device. And while Amazon does invest in content discovery, it typically takes the form of banners or email messaging – reserving widgets solely for product recommendations.
The web experience
With millions of products for sale on its site, in pursuit of driving purchases, Amazon relies heavily on recommendations to surface new products tailored to each web user. Never afraid to go a bit overboard, the number of widgets placed across each page is limitless, and the number of products served per widget knows no bounds.
The mobile experience
Amazon uses its mobile properties as recommendation-focused digital inventory, squeezing as many product and content suggestions on the screen as possible, much like the web experience.
Both the mobile site and app mimic one another, each featuring lengthy homepages with dozens of unique recommendation strategies. For example, some recommendations promote product discovery, while others encourage users to buy items previously purchased before.
The email experience
Amazon finds unique opportunities to leverage email to bring customers back to its site. It views email as prime inventory for showcasing more products and content. Transactional emails often feature recommendation widgets based on previously purchased items, seasonality, and trending products on the site at a given moment. Unlike the web and mobile experiences, however, email widgets are typically limited to just two recommendations per message.
Examples of Amazon's innovative recommendation strategies
If today's eCommerce retailers want to maximize performance and revenue, they'll have to go beyond serving average recommendation experiences. Below are a few of the unique ways Amazon is implementing recommendations, which brands can repurpose and leverage to capture sales and increase AOV.
Allowing for easy comparison of similar items
When viewing a product detail page, Amazon places a few recommendation widgets below the fold, appearing after the general info and details about the product in view. This widget, which precedes technical details and product specifications in page order, allows customers to catch a quick glimpse of similar products side-by-side. Details listed include customer ratings, price, delivery information, and size info (when applicable). This widget highlights other available product options and helps site visitors narrow down their purchase decision, allowing them to immediately add the most suitable product to their cart.
Nudging users to log-in for better recommendations
It should come as no surprise that today's brands are able to better personalize site experiences when they know as much about a site visitor as possible. The Amazon recommendation system can tailor experiences on a more granular level when a user is logged in. As a result, it urges logged out and unknown users to sign into their accounts for a richer recommendation experience. For those who do not log-in, the retailer recommends items based on products a user has viewed in that particular session.
Recommending products on category pages
Amazon goes a step further with its recommendation widgets, placing them not only on product detail pages but across the site, including category and product listing pages. Strategies employed for these widgets include "Recommended for you" and "More top picks for you."
Serving subsequent purchase recommendations
Amazon devolves from its standard recommendation widget design to promote products users tend to subsequently purchase after viewing a particular product. A social proof strategy, this approach pushes users further along the purchase funnel by focusing on products most likely to result in a conversion.
Surfacing recommendations for short-term promotions
To create a sense of urgency, Amazon extends recommendations to its time-sensitive product promotions, curating a collection of recommendations from a given day's "deals." To further entice users, it lists the previous price of the product, educating users on the savings they will accrue if they choose to purchase the product while it is temporarily discounted.
An opportunity to make recommendations work harder
eCommerce merchants may look at Amazon and see the odds stacked against them, but there are endless possibilities when it comes to improving the customer experience which aren't limited to the retail giant. By taking a page from its book on recommendations, brands can stand taller and reap greater rewards, carving out a piece of the market for themselves.

"The Politics of Guns" - a talk at the Maxwell School
Matt Bennett, senior vice president and co-founder of Third Way, a think tank that addresses America's challenges with modern ideas aimed at the center, will speak at the Maxwell School about "The Politics of Guns." His talk will be held on Thursday, November 14, at 4:00 p.m. in the Public Events Room, 220 Eggers Hall, on the Syracuse University campus. The event is free and open to the public.
Bennett served as a deputy assistant to the president for intergovernmental affairs in the Clinton administration, where he was the principal White House liaison to governors and covered a wide range of issues, including disaster response, Medicaid, immigration, and education. Prior to that, he served in Vice President Al Gore's office, was communications director of the Clark for President Campaign in 2004, and from 2001-2004 was director of public affairs for Americans for Gun Safety.
Following the December 2012 Sandy Hook school shootings, Bennett worked with victims' families to help them understand gun policy and authored "The Promise: The Sandy Hook Families and the Long Road to Gun Safety," an essay published by the Brookings Institution about that experience. He also contributed to gun legislation discussions after the September 2013 Navy Yard shootings.
Bennett has appeared as a political commentator on television and radio and is quoted frequently in newspapers including The New York Times and The Washington Post. He has appeared on 60 Minutes, Today, Good Morning America, Meet the Press, NPR and almost all major cable political programs. He has contributed his expertise to discussions about the history of guns, gun safety, and attempts at revising gun legislation. 11/07/13

Shadow of the Holy Book
Turkmen members of Parliament violated procedure
At the ceremonial opening session of the newly-elected Turkmen Parliament, the country's President had to calm down some overly zealous members of Parliament who rushed to express their gratitude to the head of state.
On 7 January the first session of the 5th Mejlis convocation was held in Rykhyet palace in Ashgabat. It was held in a festive atmosphere in the presence of foreign diplomats, officials from the Turkmen government, elders, university students and the members of Parliament themselves.
The President of Turkmenistan G. Berdymukhammedov addressed the audience with a speech of welcome. However, before he had finished his speech, a group of people's representatives, who according to the rules, were supposed to respond to the address later, rushed to the speaker's stand where the head of state was still speaking.
Applauding on the way, they started expressing gratitude to the President, who had not yet finished his speech. Berdymukhammedov was forced to interrupt his speech and address the Mejlis chairperson A. Nurberdyeva with an admonition that the newly-elected members of Parliament seemed not to be familiar with the rules and regulations and had violated them. Later, softening his reprimand he added that he still had several minutes to read his speech to the end.
This humorous comment caused a burst of approving laughter and slightly eased the tension.
A witness informed us that this scene was not included in the coverage by TV channels. He also reported that everybody who was supposed to be in attendance in the convention hall had been convened at the Rukhyet palace at 6a.m. though the festivities were scheduled to start at 10 a.m. Therefore, after spending two hours outdoors in cold weather many warmed up and took a nap as soon as they reached their seats. Approximately an hour before the event they were woken up by those responsible for the proceedings.

Come Read a Book with Us!
Social Spotlight is a monthly feature within Momentum where we share details about some of the Social groups meeting within our Prime Timers chapter. The intent here is to encourage members to find and join activities of interest to them. This month's Social Spotlight is on the Prime Timers Book Club.
This group is really in its infancy, with meetings having been small informal gatherings to date. The Prime Timers Book Club was initiated by several PT members who were attending the larger Northwest Austin Book Club. Those individuals decided it would be nice to form our own book club, as a means to help round out the social group offerings of the Austin Prime Timers as a chapter. The literary interest of some of the current members includes having authored books of their own at some point in the past. Of course, you don't need credentials as an author to join in the fun!
commonly centers on the analysis of the selected book's theme, thoughts on the overall message intended by the author, as well as perceptions about the behaviors of individual characters from the work.
bring the book to the meeting, in case there is a need to reference some point being made during the discussion.
The Prime Timers Book Club has no recurring meeting schedule at this time; instead, the group schedules upcoming sessions based upon active members' feedback. When Book Club gatherings are staged, the group currently meets at Book People on Lamar at 6th Street, and generally piggy-backs off the meeting schedule of the Prime Timers Saturday Morning Koffee Klatsch gathering at that same location. When the Koffee Klatsch winds down (typically around noon), the Book Club members in attendance then retreat to have their own subsequent gathering in a private meeting room on the third floor at Book People. While most Book Club members also attend the Koffee Klatsch, other PT members are welcome to be more selective, to suit their own interests and schedule.
The Book Club meeting normally lasts for only about an hour; however, there is actually no pre-determined time limit set for the discussion. The gathering simply disperses, whenever the discussion seems to be winding down.
Time members or not. The group's discussions are open to anyone who wants to attend; however, obviously, one's ability to participate in the discussion is greatly dependent upon having read the book in advance.
1) Finally Out: Letting Go of Living Straight by Loren Olson, MD; 2) Hide, a novel by Matthew Griffin; 3) Queer Aging by Jesus Ramirez Valles; and 4) Another Country by James Baldwin. To date, most of the books selected have been gay themed, although that is not an explicit requirement for book selection.
To join the Prime Timers Book Club or for further information about the group, please contact Charles Curry at charlescurry@mac.com.

Former CEU President Launches Scathing Attack on Hungarian PM


(NaturalNews) Health freedom is under attack in Ohio, where a major Cincinnati-based healthcare conglomerate is forcing all of its 10,800 employees to take a "free" flu shot or else face termination. According to WLWT News 5 in Cincinnati, the 150 objectors who have thus far refused the shot have until December 3 to either comply with the company's demands, provide a valid reason why they cannot take the vaccine, or else get fired.
The non-profit group TriHealth reportedly sent out letters to all of its employees several months ago notifying them that vaccination for the flu was mandatory this year, and that all healthcare workers would have to get jabbed by November 16 in order to be in compliance with company policy. And on November 27, WLWT reported that 150 TriHealth employees had refused the shot, and that they were being immediately terminated from their positions.
After the scheme gained national attention, TriHealth changed the deadline to December 3, and added stipulations that employees refusing the shot were permitted to opt out for religious or health reasons, so long as they signed special forms and submitted them before the cut-off date. But as a punishment, these defectors will still have to wear face masks at all times while on the clock, even though such masks are meant to protect the wearer from flu transmission, not patients.
This authoritarian type of flu shot coercion is becoming increasingly common throughout the Western world, especially in healthcare settings where workers are being pressured to take the shot to protect patients. But missing from all this flu shot hysteria is any discussion of the potentially deadly side effects associated with taking flu shots, not to mention the fact that flu shots are scientifically useless according to the science.
"The flu shot is not a guarantee that you're not going to get [the flu], and if you don't take the flu shot, it doesn't mean that you are going to get [the flu]," explained Judge Andrew P. Napolitano during a recent Varney & Co. segment about the issue. Because of this, he added, workers who are threatened with termination, or who are actually terminated, may have grounds to actually sue TriHealth for wrongful termination.

The high definition disc war is pretty much a done deal now – Blu-ray is the victor. I knew it was happening, but when I got an email from Netflix today telling me I wouldn't be getting HD-DVDs from them for much longer it confirmed my suspicions.
I did pick the wrong team – I bought an HD-DVD add-on for my XBox 360 only a few months ago. In fact the speed at which the tide has shifted is the one thing that has surprised me.
One good thing is I didn't waste too much money – most of the HD-DVDs I've watched have been rented from Netflix (Heroes Season 1, Letters from Iwo Jima, etc.), so I'll just buy a Playstation 3 in a couple of months and switch to rented Blu-ray discs instead.
That said, I don't think Blu-ray will even last – Apple's new HD movie rental is the sign of things to come, and I predict before too long on-demand, internet streamed, HD content will dwarf any Blu-ray sales or rentals. So my PS3 will likely be the last physical medium video entertainment device I buy.

For 2014 they will start the new Street category for UTQ 140 and higher tires, and then in 2015 it will go up to UTQ 200 and higher. Also, for 2014 they will run Stock classes just like this year, which must mean racing compound tires are OK. For a generic Stock Abarth like me, I guess we have to choose between basically two identical categories for next year only, Stock or Street, although of course like this year if there is a driver with Hoosiers in Stock it would be smarter to move over to Street.
I just put on a new set of 17 inch wheels and the Dunlop Direzza IIs, so I'm really looking forward to the last couple of autocross events this year, and then sticking with them in Street next year, since the Dunlops are UTQ 200.
This has been the most fun to be driving in autocross this year, and thanks to everyone else on the forum here that have been sharing their experience also.
The class will allow sway bars on the front or rear, and have a wheel diameter allowance of plus or minus one inch. Despite earlier proposals, there will be no camber allowances via camber plates, bolts or slotting."
Easily shaved 4-5 seconds off a 60 second course going to the 215/40/17 ZII's vs. the 17" OEM pirelli's... ENJOY AND HOLD ON TIGHT!
I'm really disappointed in this part when the rest of the rules seem to be aiming at returning to more like what's run on the street. Who in the hell runs custom valved, double-adjustable shocks other than hard-core autocrossers pushing the limits of the rules? There's all kinds of other classes for this sort of nonsense.
Also, for 2014 they will run Stock classes just like this year, which must mean racing compound tires are OK. For a generic Stock Abarth like me, I guess we have to choose between basically two identical categories for next year only, Stock or Street, although of course like this year if there is a driver with Hoosiers in Stock it would be smarter to move over to Street.
"In addition to the new Street Category, for 2014, the current Stock Category will remain in place and be renamed the Street-R category. All 2013 Stock classes will become Street-R (SR) classes and follow the rules which were in place for Stock at the end of 2013. For 2015, the Street-R category will be reduced to a single class, Super Street R, for high horsepower machines."
So, there will essentially be dueling classes for "stock" cars for 2014, I assume to allow folks to get used to the new rules as well as to give time to sort out classing.
I completely agree that they should have included the camber adjustment in the rules. It's cheap and makes autocrossing more fun. Other than that, I really like the idea. I never understood throwing a set of Hoosiers on your car and calling it "stock."
See my reply in your other thread. Basically, it hasn't been classed anyplace AFAIK. Since the base 500 can't run in stock or the new street classes, it will take a separate determination as to where to allow it. Your best bet is likely to be a letter to the SEB to ask for classification. If you're a member, use the form at http://crbscca.com or email Tech@scca.com to start.
The Abarth is currently G Stock per the June 2012 Fasttrack.
You will like them, try 38-40psi front and 30 rear, that's work good for me.
Let us how you like them after your event next week.
