Q: Borrar y Volver a Generar BD Tengo una base de datos en android, en la cual por medio de un botón o algo necesito que el usuario pueda eliminar todos los datos, todas las tablas... Absolutamente todo y que automáticamente se vuelvan a generar las tablas ¿Cómo podría hacerlo? Esta es mi clase SQLiteOpenHelper
public class AdminSQLiteOpenHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper {

// Constructor
public AdminSQLiteOpenHelper(Context context, String name, SQLiteDatabase.CursorFactory factory, int version) {
    super(context, name, factory, version);
}

@Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
    db.execSQL("Create table artics(id integer primary key autoincrement, codigo TEXT, descripcion TEXT, pcosto real, precio1 real, precio2 real, precio3 real, precio4 real, idgrupo TEXT, existencia real, codigoa, codsat TEXT, notas TEXT, img BLOOB, idmovil TEXT)");
    db.execSQL("Create table client(id integer primary key autoincrement, codigo TEXT, nombre TEXT, direccion TEXT, noexterior TEXT, nointerior TEXT, colonia TEXT, poblacion TEXT, codigopostal TEXT, rfc TEXT, estado TEXT, diascred INTEGER, limite REAL, telefono1 INTEGER, telefono2 INTEGER, saldo REAL, saldovencido REAL, maxdscto REAL, lista TEXT, email TEXT, comercial TEXT, idmovil TEXT, id_agente TEXT, nombre_agente TEXT)");
    db.execSQL("INSERT INTO client(id, codigo, nombre) VALUES (9999, 'VAPEG', 'VENTA AL PUBLICO EN GENERAL')");
    db.execSQL("Create table empresa(id integer primary key autoincrement, nombre TEXT, direccion TEXT, telefono TEXT, correo TEXT, web TEXT, rfc TEXT, logo TXT, contacto TXT, nocd INTEGER)");
    db.execSQL("Create table datos(id integer primary key autoincrement, nocd Integer, nolicencia TEXT, fechaVence TEXT)");
    db.execSQL("Create table pedidos(id integer primary key autoincrement, no_pedido integer, fecha TEXT, cod_liente TEXT, id_cliente INTEGER, nombre_cliente TEXT, subtotal REAL, iva REAL, total REAL, letra TEXT, folio INTEGER, estatus TEXT, img TEXT, firma TEXT, notas TEXT, notasimg TEXT, tdoc TEXT, seleccionado TEXT, idmovil TEXT)");
    db.execSQL("Create table pedidoartic(id integer primary key autoincrement, no_pedido TEXT, id_articulo INTEGER, codigo_articulo TEXT, descripcion TEXT, cantidad REAL, p_venta REAL, importe REAL, impuesto REAL, estatus TEXT, notas TEXT, seleccionado TEXT)");
    db.execSQL("Create table consecutivo(id integer primary key autoincrement, folio_pedido integer)");
    db.execSQL("Insert into consecutivo (folio_pedido) values (0)");
    db.execSQL("Create table configuraciones(id integer primary key autoincrement, impresora TEXT)");
    db.execSQL("INSERT INTO configuraciones(impresora) VALUES (null)");
}

@Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
    if (oldVersion < 3) {
        db.execSQL("ALTER TABLE pedidos ADD COLUMN tdoc TEXT");
        db.execSQL("ALTER TABLE pedidos ADD COLUMN seleccionado TEXT");
    }
    if (oldVersion < 4) {
        db.execSQL("ALTER TABLE pedidoartic ADD COLUMN seleccionado TEXT");
    }
    if (oldVersion < 5) {
        db.execSQL("Create table configuraciones(id integer primary key autoincrement, impresora TEXT)");
        db.execSQL("INSERT INTO configuraciones(impresora) VALUES (null)");
    }
    if (oldVersion < 6) {
        db.execSQL("ALTER TABLE artics ADD COLUMN idmovil TEXT");
        db.execSQL("ALTER TABLE client ADD COLUMN idmovil TEXT");
        db.execSQL("ALTER TABLE pedidos ADD COLUMN idmovil TEXT");
    }
    if (oldVersion < 7) {
        db.execSQL("ALTER TABLE empresa ADD COLUMN nocd INTEGER");
    }
    if (oldVersion < 8){
        db.execSQL("Create table datos(id integer primary key autoincrement, nocd Integer, nolicencia TEXT, fechaVence TEXT)");
    }
    if (oldVersion < 9) {
        db.execSQL("ALTER TABLE client ADD COLUMN saldovencido REAL");
        db.execSQL("ALTER TABLE client ADD COLUMN maxdscto REAL");
    }
}

}

A: Lo que puedes hacer para este caso es borrar las tablas, mostrare un ejemplo del como se hace:
Suponiendo que tenemos las siguientes constantes:
//DB
public static final String DB = "bdlist.db";

//TABLE
public static final String TableList = "listas";

//CREATE_TABLE
public static final String SQL_CREATE_TABLE_LISTA = "CREATE TABLE " + TableList + "(" +
            COLUMN_ID + " TEXT PRIMARY KEY," + COLUMN_NOMBRE + " TEXT," + COLUMN_PERSONAS + " INT," +
            COLUMN_DESCRIPCION + " TEXT," + COLUMN_CARACTERISTICAS + " TEXT," + COLUMN_IMAGEN + " TEXT," +
COLUMN_FAV + " INT" + ");";

//DELETE TABLE
public static final String SQL_DELETE = "DROP TABLE " + TableList;

Las usarías en tu Helper de esta manera:
public class DBHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper {
    public static final int DB_VERSION = 1;

    public DBHelper (Context context) {
        super(context, DB, null, DB_VERSION);
    }

    @Override
    public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
        db.execSQL(SQL_CREATE_TABLE_LISTA);
    }

    @Override
    public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
        db.execSQL(SQL_DELETE);
        onCreate(db);
    }
}

En este ejemplo se elimina la version actual de la tabla y la crea de nuevo, con este ejemplo puedes darte una idea de como resolver de otra forma. Saludos.

President Elect Donald Trump Starting New World Order? By -Md. Hasanuzzaman
December , 2016 admin Cover Story
Donald Trump's stunning election victory has pushed the United States – and the world – into uncharted territory. The US has never before had a president with no political or military experience, nor one who so routinely shirks the truth, embraces conspiracy theories, and contradicts himself. All of this makes it almost impossible to know how he will govern.
The certainties that underpin our current global system – the one in place since the end of the Second World War – are no longer guaranteed after the electoral earthquake in the United States. A national security adviser to the Trump team said his transition planners are aware of the potential instability that could arise in these few months. That's one reason they are making sure he's connecting with world leaders well before taking the oath of office on Jan. 20
The New York Times published an article titled 'Donald Trump's Victory Promises to Upend the International Order' by Peter Baker which claims that Trump's victory is "upending an international order that prevailed for decades and raising profound questions about America's place in the world." America is the engine of the 'international order' or the 'New World Order' (NWO) in fact; it has intervened in numerous countries by launching wars of aggression and has instigated numerous coups since the end of World War II. They have imposed international trade policies that favored U.S. corporations, advocated for open borders on an international level and maintained U.S. dollar hegemony as the world's reserve currency.
The New York Times article claims that Trump's "America First" policy will have repercussions worldwide: "For the first time since before World War II, Americans chose a president who promised to reverse the internationalism practiced by predecessors of both parties and to build walls both physical and metaphorical. Mr. Trump's win foreshadowed an America more focused on its own affairs while leaving the world to take care of itself. The outsider revolution that propelled him to power over the Washington establishment of both political parties also reflected a fundamental shift in international politics evidenced already this year by events like Britain's referendum vote to leave the European Union. Mr. Trump's success could fuel the populist, nativist, nationalist, closed-border movements already so evident in Europe and spreading to other parts of the world. For Europe and Asia, it could rewrite the rules of modern alliances, trade deals, and foreign aid. For the Middle East, it foreshadowed a possible alignment with Russia and fresh conflict with Iran
Trump's presidency is most worrisome on the foreign-policy front, where many potential disasters await. We have reason to fear that miscalculations will lead to tragedies, just as Bush fumbled the response to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attack, failed to capture Osama bin Laden, and invaded Iraq. America's role as a global leader will surely suffer, as will the "soft power" that it previously derived from being a model of liberal democracy for others to emulate. Meanwhile, Trump's cluelessness will likely embolden traditional US adversaries, such as Russia, Syria, and North Korea.
The Republicans kept control of both the Senate and the House of Representatives, so Trump will be able to fulfill his promises to roll back Obama's biggest legislative achievements. Trump's opposition to the massive Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal, which was championed by Obama, has essentially killed that agreement. But in a sign of how quickly Asian countries are adjusting, China is expected to use this week's Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum in Peru to push a regional trade pact in which — unlike the TPP — it will play a role but the U.S. won't. And Abe has already said the China-dominated deal will likely become the preferred pact if Trump abandons the TPP as he's promised.
Trump's White House victory appears to have emboldened Russia perhaps more than any other U.S. rival, not least because Trump has consistently advocated taking a softer approach toward Moscow than even many Republicans want. Mr. Trump won with a campaign during which he praised Russian President Vladimir Putin as a strong leader, questioned whether the U.S. still needed the NATO alliance, and declared that other long-time American allies like Japan, South Korea and Saudi Arabia should no longer get "free" U.S. protection. Mr. Trump has also described climate change as a Chinese plot, and vowed to tear up international trade deals. The tilting of the world's axis could be felt as soon as the election result was clear. The Interfax news service reported that Russia's parliament burst into applause at the news of Mr. Trump's win. Hours later, German and French leaders publicly struggled to find a way to congratulate a president-elect they clearly never expected to see in the White House, or at a G7 or NATO summit.
Mr. Putin sent a congratulatory telegram minutes after Mr. Trump gave his victory speech, and made it clear he was hoping for a new relationship between Washington and Moscow. "Russia is ready and wants to restore fully fledged relations with the U.S. It won't be easy, but we're prepared to do our part," Mr. Putin said in televised remarks, adding that he was hopeful the two countries could resolve the "burning issues that are currently on the international agenda."
Others happy to see the axis tilt were populist and far-right figures across Europe, a continent still reeling from the shock of Britain's June vote to leave the European Union. Marine Le Pen of France's National Front and Geert Wilders of the Netherlands's Party for Freedom were both effusive in their praise of Mr. Trump, seeing the U.S. result as boosting their own chances ahead of elections next year in their countries. Nigel Farage, a politician who played a leading role in the U.K.'s Brexit referendum, was similarly jubilant. "I hand over the mantle to [Mr. Trump]!," he posted on his Twitter account. He said Mr. Trump's victory was an even bigger "political revolution" than Brexit.
Less enthusiastic were those who had come to rely on a predictable U.S. foreign-policy course, based on those post-Second World War alliances. Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, whose country is in the midst of an arms race with a rising China, congratulated Mr. Trump and said he looked forward to working closely to "strengthen the bonds" of the U.S.-Japan relationship. But the official Kyodo newswire was less calm, running a headline about a possible "rift" between the incoming Trump administration and Tokyo over Mr. Trump's suggestion that Japan needed to start paying more for its own defence. (Rival China was also unlikely to celebrate the election result, having been cast by Mr. Trump as a currency manipulator responsible for stealing American jobs.) South Korea – worried that it may be about to lose its guarantee against North Korean aggression – called a snap meeting of its National Security Council following Mr. Trump's win.
The EU also called a special summit of the foreign ministers of its 28 member states on Sunday to discuss what a President Trump would mean for the bloc. European Commission President Donald Tusk said the U.S. election result brought "new challenges" to transatlantic relations. Among the continent's leaders, the consternation was plain, and the congratulations to Mr. Trump sounded hollow. German Chancellor Angela Merkel was clearest in her concern, packing her message to Mr. Trump with caveats about how she hoped the U.S. president-elect would behave. French President François Hollande, who said during the U.S. campaign that Mr. Trump's behaviour "makes you want to retch," was more understated on Wednesday, declaring only that the Republican candidate's victory had opened a "period of uncertainty." Both Ms. Merkel and Mr. Hollande are members of an old international order that now seems under siege.
The escalating fighting in the Arab state suggests that "Russia may want to 'finish up' in Syria so as to present Trump with a fait accompli in January, and then pave the way for an improvement in U.S.-Russia relations," said Nikolas Gvosdev, a professor of national security studies at the U.S. Naval War College. Russia also announced it was dropping its support for the International Criminal Court, a move that followed a U.N. panel's condemnation of Moscow's invasion of Ukraine and annexation of Crimea. Russia also would like Trump to drop U.S. support for American and European sanctions against Moscow over its actions in Ukraine, and the kind words exchanged between Putin and Trump so far suggest the Russians might get their wish.
What about Muslims? We have to take Trump at his word. He will attempt to build a wall to stop migrants from coming from Latin America. He will try to ban refugees from Muslim countries, if not all Muslims. He will continue to drive a wedge between whites and all others. It is who he is.
Trump rose to power with an Islamophobic campaign and Islamophobia now will become his official policy. From start to finish, the 2016 presidential election vividly revealed that Islamophobia is alive, and potent and politically resonant as ever. Scapegoating Islam and vilifying Muslims was far more than merely campaign messaging; for Donald Trump it was a winning strategy. It will bring an administration that is entirely devoid of Muslim Americans and at minimum, individuals without genuine reach into or backing from Muslim Americans. The Trump campaign lacked any bona fide Muslim American involvement, and the Trump administration will likely reflect that.
Trump's harsh rhetoric, especially language that some deem Islamophobic and a past call to ban Muslims from entering the United States; have been welcomed by the Islamic State as a handy recruiting tool. The group, which has factions across the Middle East, North Africa and South Asia, expects he'll continue to serve that function. "This guy is a complete maniac. His utter hate towards Muslims will make our job much easier because we can recruit thousands," Abu Omar Khorasani, one of the terror network's commanders in Afghanistan, recently told Reuters.
According to Guardian, Mr Trump campaigned against migrants and against Muslims, insulted black and Latino Americans, launched ads that some saw as covertly antisemitic, and was cheered to victory by every white racist in the land. His voters – a Brexit echo again – will want him to deliver. Every action he takes in this area threatens to divide and inflame. After a half-century of uneven but undeniable racial progress in America, the consequences of every attempt to turn back the clock could be dire. If he is true to his campaign pledges, which were many and reckless, Mr Trump's win will herald America's most stunning reversal of political and economic orthodoxy since the New Deal in the 1930s, but with the opposite intention and effect. It halts the ailing progressive narrative about modern America and the 21st-century world in its tracks. It signals a seismic rupture in the American-dominated global liberal economic and political order that had seemed to command the 21st century after communism collapsed and China's economy soared.
In that sense, the Trump triumph has echoes of the increasingly alarming general rightward shift in the politics of other post-industrial western democracies, to which progressives have again produced inadequate responses. The result is also a generational challenge to progressive politics to find the radical and credible message that eludes them in so many countries, not just in America.
The people of the United States wanted change; more than change; something between a coup and a revolution. This election was about many things – a rebellion against Washington elites, a rebellion against the two primary parties, a rebellion against big media. But race was an undeniable factor. After all Trumps' victory is the reflection of racial and far nationalistic character of American society.

Transcript of the Sakyong's Shambhala Day Address 2014
March 7, 2014 by Kathryn Rile
Sakyong Jampal Trinley Dradul, Jamgon Mipham Rinpoche
THE SAKYONG: I would like to begin this new year with a bow, an international bow from here in Dorje Dzong. We can extend our heart out and meet all those of you who are joining us online — from Europe, where it is much later, from Halifax in Nova Scotia, from the East Coast, the Midwest, the West Coast, and also from Latin America and Asia. At this particular moment, we come together as Shambhala, and we come together from the seat of basic goodness. Whatever your aspirations are for this year, please let us have a communal bow and raising of lungta. [All bow.]
Thank you, and a very cheerful Shambhala Day to all of you. Cheerful Shambhala Day! [All: "Cheerful Shambhala Day!"] That's better. [Laughter] And a very cheerful Shambhala Day to all those of you who are joining us. I was actually wondering, as you might wonder if you were me, what is Shambhala Day? [Laughs; laughter] Why do we come together on this new day, this fresh-start day? Shambhala Day represents the notion that we — as a community, as a sangha, as an organization, as a multigenerational culture — raise our group energy, we raise our group lungta. As much as it is an occasion for all of us individually, Shambhala Day is very much a communal, social, raising of lungta. This is very important for us because many of us obviously work hard and life goes by quickly; it's easy just to lose track of the days, months, and years. All of a sudden, the belly is either bigger or smaller or the hair has changed colors. So many things are occurring — it's important that we take this astrological moment when, according to the lunar system, the new year is beginning. We take a moment to reflect on this precious existence, this experience of life that we are all going through.
We have come together around the teachings that my father, the Dorje Dradul, brought from his homeland of Tibet, about the message of human goodness, which have somehow touched and inspired us as a community and beyond. It is important in this constantly shifting world, where it is very difficult to know what to depend on, to know how to guide our life. It is important as individuals and as a community to regroup and think about the basic, essential principles and values that we all hold dear. We can do that, daily, but as a community I think it is very good to do it annually and see this particular moment as a spirit of "life is worth living."
We have gone through challenges, but our whole makeup as human beings is geared toward living. And there is so much that can overwhelm us. As the geopolitical situation is increasingly more intense, we all begin to wonder about the goodness of being human. We all begin to wonder about the goodness of society. So this moment is our attempt as Shambhala — and globally, it's not the only attempt — to come together and to make life meaningful and valuable. It takes a community to do that. We need to support each other and we need to wake ourselves up, so that we do not just look down.
Shambhala Day is about looking up, by the way. You can always check your lungta barometer by noticing where you meet people visually. If you find yourself looking a lot at their feet, you know where that's going! But if you raise your gaze to the heart or the head, it's getting higher.
Can we as a community raise our lungta? We gather, we practice, in order to do that. But even at an atomic, genetic level, we need to feel the purpose of living. We need to do that daily. Meditation teaches us how to be moment to moment. But together, astrologically, we need to do that annually. And we need to reset our orientation. Like a ship sailing in the vast ocean, it is very easy to lose direction. We need to know how to orient ourselves. Are these principles valuable to us? Are they what we would like to affect us?
So today is the moment when we do that, and we do it in a cheerful way. For whatever reason, my father decided to use the word cheerful instead of happy. If you know him, it makes perfect sense, but I am also okay with happy, by the way. [Laughter] Considering everything, it's being nitpicky. So either happy or cheerful — that's a transmission, because in this day, there is a tendency to be depressed. There's a tendency to be hard, to be not optimistic, and we can see why. But this is an opportunity for us to see how our life can be worth living. And one of the most important things right now is how we do that. We need to galvanize not only our own energy, but also the community energy.
In the last few years, you have heard me talk about the notion of the Shambhala principle of basic goodness. The great Druk Sakyong, Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche, the Dorje Dradul of Mukpo, traveled to the West to bring this message. When we reflect on why such a great being would do this, it becomes more and more self-evident that it is time for us personally and globally to look at this fundamental message of human nature. Out of this comes the notion of how we can create good society. That is the notion of vision — as we say in Tibetan, lha, "what is above." It is associated with the head, the eyes, and looking out. It's having an attitude and a direction.
We have now also had time to reflect personally to see if we believe in or feel basic goodness. That has been a personal and a communal contemplation. I believe that now, as we enter into this Year of the Horse — which naturally correlates with the notion of windhorse, energy, action — that this is very much a year of doing, accomplishing.
It is very much a year of the nyen, as we say in Tibetan. Nyen is very much connected with the torso. It is the mountain and hills aspect of geography. For all of us who are in various positions and roles, it has to do with leadership. In Shambhala, we are at a point where we have a sense of vision and we have personally connected, but we need to join those together. We need the nyen. We need that heart and the chest. We need to know how to move forward in that way.
For me, what we have been asked to do is a daunting task. The more I reflect on the actual meaning of the Shambhala teachings — what we have inherited and what are we doing — I realize that it's not so much that we are simply trying to meditate our way out of the problem — even though many of us have tried, [laughter] and keep trying, by the way. Rather, the Shambhala teachings are talking about the fabric and nature of creating a paradigm shift. They are actually looking at how society functions — the ethics by which society functions and how people value each other.
In this light, we have been given the task of becoming architects of a new civilization. We are actually being asked to contribute to how the world is going to be. Do we want it to be based upon aggression? Do we want it to be based on condescension? What are the value systems that we want to uphold? This task is very challenging for us.
Sometimes in our Shambhala centers, it is hard enough to just do the programming. We are overwhelmed. Personally, we may only have time to practice, amidst everything that's going on. However, by reflecting myself and by talking with a lot of you, I know that we are deeply, viscerally, emotionally, and maybe subliminally concerned about the direction society is taking. What are the methods by which we are going to participate? Are we just going to abstain and hope it gets better?
Meditation itself is an indication of the power of the mind and heart. We are in a situation where we are trying to empower the human being. We call it "raising lungta." We call it "planting the Ashe." We call it "having the sun of basic goodness." As my father would like to say, "we believe humanity, the human being, is naturally awake." And that wakefulness has power and energy. We feel that. Sometimes that's why we can't sleep at night, that's why we get frustrated — because it's powerful. Not only is it powerful, it is intelligent. And it's not just us as Shambhalians who have this wakefulness. Everyone has it.
Here we are, living on this planet, leading our lives, and we are all contributing to this social soup. With our attitude, either we are participating or we are abstaining. What I'm wearing is called a chuba. It's a Tibetan dress. So in Tibet they say, "Hitch up your chuba!" It's kind of like, "Roll up your sleeves." [Laughter] This is very much a hitch-up-your-chuba-and-roll-up-your-sleeves kind of a year, depending on where you come from, and your order of selection. [Laughs; laughter] What that means is that we do not necessarily need to join an NGO. Of course, if we have the choice, we can help desperate situations around the world. But here it means embodying these principles and having the confidence to expand. One of the key ways that it really occurs is by creating a culture of kindness.
We have been focusing on kindness for a while. I have been giving the same speech for twenty years [laughter], and some of you are definitely old enough to remember. But kindness doesn't mean a schmaltzy community. Kindness indicates an intelligent community. When you are kind, it means you are observant of another. And as soon as you see another and you are kind, you notice what? How you are similar. As soon as human beings realize they are similar, what happens? The tendency to help occurs. And in the Shambhala vernacular, what is the tendency to help? It's called success. An unkind community is an unintelligent community where we simply notice the faults, the deficiencies. Then we abstain, and soon we become isolated.
So we need to become a kind community — not just a bunch of individuals together trying to be nice, but people who have the lungta, the vulnerability, and the bravery to actually extend. The moment you notice somebody and extend kindness, that's brave. When that happens between two people, a culture of kindness is instantly created.
So today we are celebrating, food, meditation, and conversation. You can do less meditation today [laughter], and more food and more conversation. We have the power to create culture, which doesn't necessarily require massive numbers of people. It occurs when one individual has discovered their inherent culture of goodness and is willing to share that. Although you can't see it, that's what's happening between the aura and the energy. I'm using those words because we are in Boulder. [Laughs; laughter] You can't see it, but there is something happening.
Subliminally, that's what my father would be calling enlightened society — that invisible connectivity that is occurring. That is culture. When we drive our cars or eat food, we are always looking for that notion of connectivity. We as human beings need each other. Our emotional connectivity validates our existence. We know more about who we are. That is a human trait. If we think the world is shrinking and are afraid to connect, what kind of a lonely place is it going to be? We see ourselves as full of many seeming deficiencies, too. Then we create a culture of separation, mistrust, fear, and animosity, which is an abstaining culture.
For us here who are in a contemplative tradition, this should be a proactive culture. Not that we are forcing somebody else to think how we think, but that we are not embarrassed to engage and manifest our principles. Right now, as meditation becomes more common and popular, we have a little more leeway to actually feel less self-conscious about these principles, and to manifest them. Right now, we are at the cusp, or the beginning, of finding many ways for these principles and teachings to manifest — in the workplace, education, and so forth.
I would like to ask you to please participate! If you have done your program and you're thinking, "I have done my bit," that's a teaser. This is a community. Those trainings are valuable and important, but we need to feel like we can participate in creating this culture. I trust your intelligence. As we become more intelligent, we will find different ways to be creative in education, technology, or science. In all these fields, basic goodness and wakefulness will become the norm. Then the Shambhala community can say, "When things seemed rocky, we didn't fold." Even the thought of trying sometimes seems overwhelming. As we know when we meet people, behind the fear there is a sense of tremendous . . . fear. [Laughter]
Can we project the energy of this horse? Traditionally, a horse represents many principles. It's the notion of exertion, movement, success, and victory. For us, it is also the notion of inherent human dignity. We can actually connect with our dignity and connect with one another. When human beings take their seat as human beings — and even when a dog takes its seat as a dog, or a horse takes its seat as a horse — that intimidates us because they are being who they are. So when we are who we are as humans and have dignity, the elements line up. We are not afraid of nature.
We can be part of nature. We can be part of the elements. In our tradition, connecting in that way is called drala, magic, or inherent wakeful energy. Today — Shambhala Day — is very much the notion of magic. We are literally here, and somehow amongst all this there is amazing heart. When we think about it and reflect on it from that point of view, it is truly a miracle. It's important that we allow ourselves to honor that.
I very much look forward to working with the Kalapa Council and all of you who are center directors and leaders. Leadership training is very important this year. I also feel like we have begun a very important transition. We have the vision, and there is so much happening. At the same time, we need to increase our understanding of finances. I'm extremely happy that we are already moving in this way in terms of the Unified Giving Model, and we have so much to do. Gathering people and having a community is naturally the element of richness and wealth. Inherently, it is part of the notion of dignity. It's important that we are not afraid to think that we, as a community, can be successful. Leadership can move forward in this way.
So I encourage all of you to find out how you can participate and contribute. Effort is an essential component not only of what will keep this together but of how we will move forward. In that light, I want to encourage the wonderfulness of our multigenerational community. It keeps getting older, by the way. Those of you who are young – it's important that you feel you can train and be leaders and participants in this community. Now is the time to step up and participate.
So I send my love and greetings. Those who are in Europe, I tried to speak as slowly as I could, so excuse me if I was too quick. Those of you who are in the evening, please enjoy the rest of your festivities. Those of you who are very early in the morning, please enjoy the beginning of your festivities. I look forward to the teachings and the programming that we have scheduled. We are continuing the effort of going out, doing more festivals and continuing that energy. We also have wonderful retreats planned. So those of you who have the time and opportunity, please join. In particular, please maintain that sense of bond that we have.
So on this particular day, I would like to say that I'm delighted to be here with the Sakyong Wangmo and obviously Lady Konchok, my mother, who still thinks I'm a boy [laughter]. As I get older, that's fine with me! [Laughs; laughter]
So thank you everyone.

Os recabitas constituíam uma comunidade ascética de israelitas contemporâneos ao profeta Jeremias no Antigo Testamento bíblico.

Segundo o Livro de Jeremias (cap. 35), os recabitas eram descendentes de Jonadabe, filho de Recabe, o  queneu, o qual viveu por volta do Século IX a.C. e ensinou seus parentes a se absterem de vinho, bem como não edificarem casas ou praticarem a agricultura.

Na época do reinado de Jeoaquim, entre os anos de 609 a.C. e 597 a.C., Jeremias levou Jazanias ao Templo, juntamente com os seus irmãos e filhos, e lhes ofereceu taças de vinho, tendo eles se recusado a beber, demonstrando assim a fidelidade aos ensinamentos de Jonadabe.

" E pus diante dos filhos da casa dos recabitas taças cheias de vinho e copos e disse-lhes: Bebei vinho. Mas eles disseram: Não beberemos vinho, porque Jonadabe, filho de Recabe, nosso pai, nos mandou, dizendo: nunca bebereis vinho, nem vós nem vossos filhos; (Jer 35:5)"

Não era próprio dos Recabitas morarem na cidade. Estavam em Jerusalém, fugindo dos exércitos Sírio e Caldeu. Eles sempre se justificavam perante o povo, pois, por muito tempo habitaram em tendas no deserto.

"As palavras de Jonadabe, filho de Recabe, que ordenou a seus filhos que não bebessem vinho, foram guardadas, pois não beberem até este dia, antes obedeceram o mandamento de seu pai,: a mim porém, que vos tenho falado, madrugando e falando, não me ouvistes... Tenho enviado profetas, dizendo convertei-vos, porém não me obedecestes" Jer 35:14,15"

Category "Taxes"
GAO: Health Law's Lax Credits Too Small To Entice Small Businesses
"Tax credits in President Obama's healthcare law aren't big enough to prompt small businesses to start offering healthcare benefits, the Government Accountability Office said Monday. The small-business tax credit has not lived up to expectations. The Congressional Budget Office initially estimated that the credits would total $2 billion in 2010, but the real cost that year only came to $468 million, GAO said."
Taxing Jobs Out Of Existence
"In 2010, however, Congress, ravenous for revenue to fund Obamacare, included in the legislation a 2.3 percent tax on gross revenue — which generally amounts to about a 15 percent tax on most manufacturers' profits — from U.S. sales of medical devices beginning in 2013. This will be piled on top of the 35 percent federal corporate tax, and state and local taxes. The 2.3 percent tax will be a $20 billion blow to an industry that employs more than 400,000, and $20 billion is almost double the industry's annual investment in research and development."
Breaking: Small Employers "Eligible" for a Tax Credit They'll Never Use
"There is an absurd report out today from Families USA which breathlessly states that, '3.2 million small businesses, employing 19.3 million workers across the nation, will be eligible for [a small business tax credit under Obamacare].'
Note the word, 'eligible.' Meaning, that this many businesses can claim this tax credit. Whether many actually will is another question. The credit in question is a byzantine and confusing provision which most small employers won't try to use."
Milliman: ObamaCare Even Raises Taxes on the Government
"As you may know, the Affordable Care Act raises taxes on pretty much everyone, directly or indirectly, in order to fund its expansion of coverage for the uninsured. Most of these new taxes are unwise policy. But one Obamacare tax increase stands out for sheer boneheadedness: the law's tax on insurance premiums, a provision that will raise taxes paid by the government itself, and make insurance less affordable."
ObamaCare's Tax War On Women
"Out of the 20 new or higher taxes in Obamacare, there are five that most hurt women. All of them violate President Obama's commitment to families making less than $250,000."
ObamaCare: Higher Taxes, More Uninsured, Says CBO
"On March 13, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) updated its score of Obamacare, announcing that the program is $48 billion cheaper than in its previous 2011 score.
The primary reason for this change is that more individuals will lose their employer-provided coverage than originally anticipated, and the government will collect $99 billion more in taxes and penalties. CBO also finds that there are more uninsured individuals.
In short, this new CBO update continues the trend of Obamacare becoming increasingly expensive and decreasingly effective with each new scoring update."
ObamaCare Tax Will Hurt Patients And Destroy Jobs
"To help pay ObamaCare's steep costs, Washington placed a tax on medical device sales. The ugly results: Higher costs that hurt patients, destroy jobs and curb the innovation that extends life and brings relief.
The basic medical devices that we can buy at the retail level won't be subject to the tax, which begins next year. But devices sold by wholesalers to health care providers will be."
States Will Get Socked With New Medicaid Tax Under Health Law
"Under the health care overhaul, the federal government will start taxing itself and the states beginning in 2014. And that's giving state Medicaid directors heartburn. A report released Tuesday by the actuarial firm Milliman Inc. said the tax will cost the Medicaid program between $36.5 billion and $41.9 billion over 10 years. At least $13 billion will be borne by states, and at least $23.5 billion by the federal government, based on the state-federal Medicaid matching formula."
End ObamaCare's Taxes Before They End Lifesaving Medical Advances
"Unfortunately, Obamacare threatens to bring American innovation to a screeching halt. To fund their trillion-dollar health care plan, Democrats socked some of their favorite villains — insurers, drug companies and medical device firms — with onerous new taxes.
The impact of these new taxes on health care innovation will be nothing short of disastrous. They will deprive firms of money that they otherwise might spend on research and development."
Whatever Happened to the Small Business Tax Credit?
"Yet another provision of ObamaCare has been found unworkable… Now it turns out the much-vaunted tax credit for small employers is also a bomb. At a recent (November 15, 2011) hearing of the Ways and Means Committee, the Treasury Department's Inspector General J. Russell George reported that as of mid-October 2011 only 309,000 taxpayers had claimed the credit, for a total payout of $416 million — far below the 4.4 million the IRS thought would be eligible or the CBO estimate of $2 billion that would be paid out in 2010 alone."

Q: Angular 2 apache .htaccess file 404 on subpages I have successfully installed and ran Angular 2 app on my apache server, I am able to navigate through the pages via [routerLink]="['/register']"
However when I refresh the page I get a 404 error on the register page. Is there something wrong with my rewrite rules:
Options +FollowSymLinks
<ifModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !index
    RewriteRule (.*) index.html [L]
</ifModule>

Also here is my apache VirtualHost
<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName example.com
    ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html/front/dist/browser
    <Directory /var/www/html/front>
        AllowOverride All
    </Directory>

    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

A: you can solve it by redirecting 404 Error to your index.html
– In Apache Server hosting, edit Apache configuration:
sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf
– Add ErrorDocument 404 like this:
my index.html is found in /var/www/html/vas/index.html
– Full file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html

# redirect 404 to index page
ErrorDocument 404 /vas/index.html

    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

– Restart Apache server by cmd sudo service apache2 restart

A: Yes, As per I understand, your rewrite rules don't seem correct to me..
You are saying if the requested document is not a file AND not a Directory AND I guess not the index page then redirect to index.html and what if they are?? And why don't you want to go to the index page? I believe RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !index means you don't want to go to index.
I don't know what is your requirement but for a simplistic reqirement I use:
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -s [OR]   # don't redirect for files which phycically exit
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d  # don't redirect for directories
    RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]  # if the above condition(s) satisfy then do nothing
    RewriteRule ^.*$ index.html [NC,L] # for everything else, redirect to index.html

A: Try This
RewriteEngine on
# Don't rewrite files or directories
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]

# Rewrite everything else to index.html to allow html5 state links
RewriteRule ^ index.html [L]

# If the requested resource doesn't exist, use index.html

The Social Democratic Party (SDE) has unveiled its candidate list for May's European Parliamentary elections, with former foreign minister Marina Kaljurand heading up a list which contains more women candidates, than men, an Estonian first, BNS reports.
Estonia is treated as a single electoral district in the European elections, unlike the general election where there are 12 districts, but the same modified d'Hondt system of proportional representation is used, so parties run lists with candidates in rank order. Once a candidate passes the threshold number of votes to gain a seat, the excess is passed on down to the next candidate on the list. Similarly, if an elected candidate decides not to take up their seat, or cannot, it passes down to the next on the list.
The maximum number of candidates on a European elections list is nine, with most of the parties taking advantage of that.
The rest of SDE's list is split 50:50 by gender. Former foreign minister Sven Mikser is in the number two position, followed by sitting MEP Ivari Padar, former speaker of the house Eiki Nestor, former interior minister Katri Raik, and three more women: Triin Toomesaar, former MEP Marianne Mikko, and Monika Haukanomm. Indrek Tarand, a sitting MEP (independent), who ran for SDE in the general election, rounds off the list.
Thus SDE has more women candidates (five) than men (four). However, since there are over half a dozen parties running for either six or seven MEP seats (depending on what happens with the pending UK withdrawal from the EU), sufficient votes are not likely to percolate their way lower down the SDE electoral list.
"Our list is strong and professional,'' said SDE leader Jevegeni Ossinovski, on presenting it on Saturday.
''The list is topped by two former foreign ministers and more than half the candidates have have borne the responsibility of government minister. Three candidates have previous experience from work in the European Parliament. I'm especially glad that for the first time in Estonia's history, a political party is submitting a list of candidates which is led by a woman and in which female candidates are in majority. And of course that party is the Estonian Social Democratic Party," Mr Ossinovski continued.
Under European Parliamentary rules, MEPs must sit with one of several political groupings. SDE MEPs have generally sat with the Party of European Socialists (PES).
SDE had one MEP elected at the last elections in 2014, Marju Lauristin. Ms Lauristin stepped down and was replaced by Ivari Padar, in November 2017.
That SDE was to run a list of such a makeup is no big surprise; the party had announced a provisional list of 11 in mid-March.
Estonia 200 and the Reform Party are both running four women candidates at the 2019 European elections. Isamaa and Centre are running two apiece, and the Conservative People's Party of Estonia (EKRE), and Richness of Life (the latter is not running a full list), are going with all-male lists.

AB-873 Housing: emergency housing and assistance funding. (2013-2014)
An act to amend Sections 50802 and 50803 of the Health and Safety Code, relating to housing, and making an appropriation therefor.
[ Approved by Governor October 02, 2013. Filed with Secretary of State October 02, 2013. ]
AB 873, Chau. Housing: emergency housing and assistance funding.
Existing law requires the Department of Housing and Community Development to administer the Emergency Housing and Assistance Program. Under the program, moneys from the continuously appropriated Emergency Housing and Assistance Fund are available for the purposes of providing shelter, as specified, to homeless persons at as low a cost and as quickly as possible, without compromising the health and safety of shelter occupants, to encourage the move of homeless persons from shelters to a self-supporting environment as soon as possible, to encourage provision of services for as many persons at risk of homelessness as possible, to encourage compatible and effective funding of homeless services, and to encourage coordination among public agencies that fund or provide services to homeless individuals, as well as agencies that discharge people from their institutions.
Existing law requires the department to distribute funds appropriated for activities providing for capital development programs, including acquisition, leasing, construction, and rehabilitation of sites for emergency shelter and transitional housing for homeless persons, as grants in the form of forgivable deferred loans, as prescribed. Existing law requires the department to make funding available to each project as a loan with a term of 5 years for rehabilitation, 7 years for substantial rehabilitation, or 10 years for acquisition and rehabilitation or new construction.
This bill would authorize the department to also make funding available as a loan with a term of 20 years for conversion to permanent supportive housing for homeless families and individuals.
Existing law requires that grants awarded by the department pursuant to these provisions be used by a grant recipient to defray costs of eligible activities defined in department regulations.
This bill would provide that these grants may also be awarded pursuant to department requirements and would authorize the department to develop requirements that are not subject to review by the Office of Administrative Law, as specified. The bill would also expand eligible activities to include capital development loans for the conversion of emergency shelter or transitional housing to permanent supportive housing for homeless families or individuals, and the provision of effective approaches to rapidly rehouse homeless clients, including homeless system assessments, street outreach and housing and services engagement efforts, coordinated care services, housing location and stabilization services, and rental assistance costs, including deposits and costs necessary for occupancy. The bill would require the department to give priority for capital development funds to applicants proposing capital development loans for the conversion of emergency shelter or transitional housing to permanent supportive housing for homeless families or individuals and to give priority for noncapital development funds to applicants that propose effective approaches to rapidly rehouse homeless clients and that leverage additional funding sources or focus on high-cost users of more than one system of care.
The bill would require that the department, no later than June 30, 2015, transfer any unobligated Proposition 46 and Proposition 1C bond funds derived from bonds remaining in the Emergency Housing and Assistance Fund to the Housing Rehabilitation Loan Fund, less any funds needed for state operations to support outstanding awards as determined by the Department of Housing and Community Development, to be expended for the Multifamily Housing Program for supportive housing for a specified target population.
By authorizing the use of continuously appropriated funds for new purposes, this bill would make an appropriation.
This bill would also incorporate changes in Section 50802 of the Health and Safety Code proposed by AB 1109, that would become operative on the date this bill becomes operative only if AB 1109 and this bill are both chaptered and become effective on or before January 1, 2014, and this bill is chaptered last.
Vote: 2/3 Appropriation: YES Fiscal Committee: YES Local Program: NO
Section 50802 of the Health and Safety Code is amended to read:
(a) The department shall ensure that not less than 20 percent of the moneys in the Emergency Housing and Assistance Fund shall be allocated to nonurban counties during any given fiscal year. If the funds designated for facilities operation that are allocated to nonurban counties are not awarded by the end of that fiscal year, then those unencumbered funds shall be allocated in the next fiscal year to urban counties. Funds for capital development that are not awarded by the end of the second fiscal year shall be awarded in the subsequent fiscal year to urban counties.
(b) The amount of funds that the department allocates from the Emergency Housing and Assistance Fund to each region, excluding funds allocated pursuant to subdivision (a), shall be based upon a formula that accords at least 20 percent weight to each of the following factors:
(1) The relative number of persons in the region below the poverty line according to the most recent federal census, updated, if possible, with an estimate by the Department of Finance, compared to the total of the urban counties.
(2) The relative number of persons unemployed within each region, based on the most recent one-year period for which data is available, compared to the total of the urban counties.
(c) Grant funds shall be disbursed as expeditiously as possible by the department.
(d) The department shall use not more than 5 percent of the amount available for funds pursuant to this chapter to defray the department's administrative costs pursuant to this chapter.
(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, the department shall distribute funds appropriated for purposes of the activities specified in paragraphs (2) and (7) of subdivision (a) of Section 50803 as grants in the form of forgivable deferred loans, subject to all of the following:
(1) Funding shall be made available to each project as a loan with a term of five years for rehabilitation, seven years for substantial rehabilitation, 10 years for acquisition and rehabilitation or new construction, or 20 years for conversion to permanent supportive housing for homeless families and individuals. Each deferred loan shall be secured by a deed of trust and promissory note. Repayment of the loan shall be deferred as long as the project is used as an emergency shelter, permanent supportive housing, or transitional housing. At the completion of the specified year term, the loan shall be forgiven. If a transfer or conveyance of the project property, however, occurs prior to that time that results in the property no longer being used as an emergency shelter, permanent supportive housing, or transitional housing, the department shall terminate the grant and require the repayment of the deferred loan in full.
(2) Applications for funding shall be made pursuant to department-issued statewide "Notices of Funding Availability" without the need for additional regulations.
(3) The department shall set forth the criteria for evaluating applications in the "Notices of Funding Availability" and shall make deferred loans based on those applications that best meet the criteria.
(4) The department shall specify in the "Notice of Funding Availability" both maximum and minimum grant amounts that may be varied for urban and nonurban counties.
(5) Contracts for projects that have not begun construction within the initial 12-month period shall be terminated and funds reallocated. The department, however, may extend this period by a period not to exceed 12 months.
SEC. 1.5.
(1) (A) Funding shall be made available to each project as a loan with a term of five years for rehabilitation, seven years for substantial rehabilitation, 10 years for acquisition and rehabilitation or new construction, or 20 years for conversion to permanent supportive housing for homeless families and individuals. Each deferred loan shall be secured by a deed of trust and promissory note. Repayment of the loan shall be deferred as long as the project is used as an emergency shelter, permanent supportive housing, or transitional housing. At the completion of the specified year term, the loan shall be forgiven. If a transfer or conveyance of the project property, however, occurs prior to that time that results in the property no longer being used as an emergency shelter, permanent supportive housing, or transitional housing, the department shall terminate the grant and require the repayment of the deferred loan in full.
(B) If the property is transitioned from an emergency shelter or transitional housing to permanent supportive housing, and serves people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness, the loan may also be deferred and forgiven according to subparagraph (A), as if it had remained an emergency shelter or transitional housing. Prior to a transition, a project shall obtain department approval to transition to permanent supportive housing to ensure that the proposed transition is consistent with this subdivision. In considering whether to approve a transition, the department shall evaluate the following factors: the suitability of the building for use as permanent supportive housing and project financial feasibility. A project transitioned to permanent supportive housing pursuant to this subdivision shall have a loan term of 20 years from the beginning of its approved use as permanent supportive housing for people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. If a transitioned project property is no longer being used as permanent supportive housing for people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness, the department shall terminate the loan and require repayment of the deferred loan in full.
(i) For purposes of this subparagraph, "permanent supportive housing" has the same meaning as the term "supportive housing," as defined in paragraph (2) of subdivision (b) of Section 50675.14.
(ii) For purposes of this subparagraph, "people who are homeless" means individuals described in Section 11302 of Title 42 of the United States Code, and paragraph (2) of subdivision (e) of Section 11139.3 of the Government Code.
(a) Grants awarded by the department pursuant to this chapter shall be used by a grant recipient to defray costs of eligible activities defined in department regulations or guidelines, including, but not limited to, any of the following activities:
(1) Operating facilities, including, but not limited to, operations staff salaries, maintenance, repair, utilities, equipment, and debt reduction.
(2) Providing for capital development programs, such as acquisition, leasing, construction, and rehabilitation of sites for emergency shelter and transitional housing for homeless persons.
(3) Administrative costs.
(4) Operating expenses relating to supervising and counseling clients.
(5) Providing residential rental assistance.
(6) Leasing or renting rooms for provision of temporary shelter.
(7) Capital development loans for the conversion of emergency shelter or transitional housing to permanent supportive housing for homeless families or individuals. The department shall establish the maximum loan limits for the loans in the notice of funding availability.
(8) Providing effective approaches to rapidly rehouse homeless clients. Eligible activities include, but are not limited to, homeless system assessments, street outreach and housing and services engagement efforts, coordinated care services, housing location and stabilization services, and rental assistance costs, including deposits and costs necessary for occupancy.
(b) Funds allocated to a nonurban county pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 50802 may be used to pay the cost of leasing or renting individual units, hotel rooms, or motel rooms for use as emergency shelters. No more than 15 percent of the funds allocated to a region other than a nonurban county shall be expended for this purpose.
(c) By regulation, the department shall establish a level, not to exceed 5 percent of a grant award, which any eligible recipient may use to defray administrative costs.
(a) Notwithstanding any provision of Chapter 11.5 (commencing with Section 50800) of Part 2 of Division 31 of the Health and Safety Code, the Department of Housing and Community Development shall do all of the following with respect to notices of funding availability issued on or after the effective date of this act and prior to July 1, 2015:
(1) Make funding available on a competitive basis statewide.
(2) Give priority for capital development funds to applicants proposing activities described in paragraph (7) of subdivision (a) of Section 50803 of the Health and Safety Code.
(3) Give priority for noncapital development funds to applicants that propose activities described in paragraph (8) of subdivision (a) of Section 50803 and that leverage additional funding sources or focus on high-cost users of more than one system of care.

Henry Orenstein, Hole Card Cam Inventor and Poker Hall of Fame Member, Dies at 98
Henry Orenstein, the inventor of the hole card cam and member of the Poker Hall of Fame, passed away at the age of 98 on Tuesday, according to PokerGO News. Orenstein's idea to bring the audience inside the game of poker by exposing players' hole cards with the use of a camera inside a poker table was essential to the poker boom that changed the way the game is viewed today. Born in Poland in 1923 to a Jewish family, Orenstein was a Holocaust survivor. Both of his parents were killed by Nazis and two of his siblings perished in concentration camps while Orenstein, and his two brothers Fred and Sam, posed as scientists in order to survive the war. After, Orenstein emigrated to the United States where he lived in New York and became a toy manufacturer, credited, most notably for the creation of the Transformers. But it was the idea to make poker more palatable for the viewer for which he was most known for in poker. According to a 2016 profile on Orenstein in Newsweek, after watching a World Series of Poker special on ESPN and being "bored out of his mind", Orenstein spent six months building the poker table that placed cameras under glass panels to reveal a players hole cards. He patented the table in 1995, one of more than 100 patents he held, eight years before Chris Moneymaker won the WSOP Main Event. Initial resistance and disinterest by television executives caused Orenstein to shelve the table, and the idea, but continue his poker career. In 1996, Orenstein won his only WSOP gold bracelet in the $5,000 Seven Card Stud tournament when he outlasted a final table that included Humberto Brenes, Cindy Violette, and TJ Cloutier. In 2002, Orenstein's idea found new life and he partnered with Head of NBC Sports Jon Miller to launch Poker Superstars and High Stakes Poker. "This one man is the reason poker is as big as it is," Miller told Newsweek. "The reason poker is a multibillion-dollar business is because of this one man." For his revolutionary idea and dedication to poker, Orenstein was inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame in 2008. He is survived by his wife, Susie.

Amid animal activist's death, concern mounts over Ontario's Bill 156
Regan Russell died two days after the province passed legislation critics say will muzzle whistleblowers
By Anne Bokma
|  July 16, 2020
For the last five years, Regan Russell spent almost every Sunday morning with a small group of activists, "bearing witness" to the pigs bound for Fearmans Pork slaughterhouse in Burlington, Ont. Russell would reach through the metal grates of the trucks to give the pigs water, speak to them and take cellphone videos to document their condition. For two minutes, the drivers would idle in their vehicles on the road outside the slaughterhouse while the activists tended to the pigs. Then the animals were led inside the facility. There, according to activists, they are gassed, hung up, bled out, dumped in scalding tanks, cut up, neatly packaged in cellophane and styrofoam and shipped to grocery stores.
Russell's last vigil with the Animal Save Movement was on June 19, when she was run over and killed outside the slaughterhouse by an 18-wheel transport truck carrying hundreds of pigs. She was 65. It is not yet known if her death was an accident or a homicide. These vigils could be dangerous because some truck drivers displayed aggressive behaviour towards the activists, as seen in this video (warning: contains strong language), taken in the exact spot Russell was killed.
What we do know is that two days before she was killed, the Ontario Progressive Conservatives passed Bill 156, the "Security from Trespass and Protecting Food Safety Act." Critics have nicknamed this agricultural legislation "ag-gag," claiming it stifles whistleblowers, including activists, journalists and employees, by making it a criminal offense to document and expose unethical or illegal practices—including animal abuse—at farms, slaughterhouses and during transport.
What I also know is that Regan Russell was my friend.
A life dedicated to animal welfare
Russell was one of those people I imagined growing old with. We even talked about living together in the same co-housing setup one day.
Her Sunday vigils was her form of church. The other protesters were her community. Witnessing was her way to worship.
She devoted her life to bringing attention to the harmful treatment of animals. In 1977, when she was 22, she learned about the slaughter of Canadian baby seals who are clubbed to death. She made a sign, marched to the legislative building in downtown Winnipeg on a cold winter day and stood around for several hours. It was the start of more than 40 years of activism with animal advocacy organizations.

I'd known her for a decade, but we became close five years ago when she was the first person to respond to a call I put out asking if anyone was interested in staging an indoor protest during Bill Cosby's appearance at Hamilton Place, on the final leg of the comedian's "Far From Finished" tour. At the time, 30 women had accused Cosby (the number would eventually increase to 60) of drugging and sexually assaulting them. Russell blew the rape whistle that pierced the air 15 minutes into Cosby's show, our cue to stand in unison, unfurl our posters and rise up chanting "We Believe the Women!" over and over while we slowly walked out of the theatre under the watchful eyes of police officers and security guards. The next day, our small act of defiance made headlines. This was a big deal for me, but not so much for Russell, who'd been arrested 11 times for acts of civil disobedience.
The night before she died, Russell, her parents and her partner, Mark Powell, discussed Bill 156. "Honey, maybe it's time to pass the torch on to the next generation," Powell suggested. But the next morning, she got up at 8 a.m. to make the trek to Fearmans. She kissed Powell goodbye before she left. Two hours later, she was dead.
"I don't know if it does any good," Russell once said of her activism. "But I know doing nothing does no good."

A 'chilling' bill
Trespassing on farms is already illegal, but Bill 156 goes further by prohibiting citizens from entering livestock areas "under false pretenses" and approaching animals in transport trucks, as well as dramatically hiking fines in newly created "animal protection zones" and protecting farmers from criminal liability if someone is hurt while trespassing on their property.
The first "ag-gag" law arrived in Canada last November, following similar laws in a number of U.S. states (although some have been overturned as a violation of the constitutional right to free speech). Alberta passed Bill 27 a month after 30 protesters—whom Premier Jason Kenney referred to as "anti-farming militants"—held a sit-in at Jumbo Valley turkey farm near Fort Macleod. Other provinces are looking at introducing similar legislation.
The effect of these new laws is chilling, say animal rights organizations.
"Animal farming is already highly secretive," says lawyer Camille Labchuk, executive director of Animal Justice, a national animal law organization which plans to challenge Bill 156.
"Whistleblowing employees are often the only way the public has to see what conditions are like on farms."
But proponents of Bill 156 praise it for protecting farmers. "Trespassers are invading farm properties, barns and processing facilities, harassing families and workers, frightening and stealing animals, and threatening food safety by ignoring biosecurity protocols," stated the Ontario Federation of Agriculture in a news release dated June 17. A statement from the Chicken Farmers of Ontario reads: "Farmers should not have to live in fear of trespassers threatening our animals, our families, and our way of life — without facing legal repercussions."
"I don't know if it does any good. But I know doing nothing does no good."
In Canada, a number of animal rights groups have documented horrific abuse, with some discoveries leading to animal cruelty convictions. In one of the most notorious cases of farm animal abuse, B.C. Chilliwack Cattle Sales, one of the largest dairy farms in the country, was fined more than $300,000 after an undercover employee with Mercy for Animals Canada obtained footage (warning: graphic content) of employees repeatedly beating cows, ripping out their tail hair and lifting a cow by a chain around its neck with a tractor. Some employees can be seen laughing and cheering with one saying, "This is way more fun than milking." Eight workers were fired in connection with the case. "Ag-gag" laws would make it illegal to obtain this kind of footage.
Speaking out against the Ontario bill, NDP agriculture critic MPP John Vanthoff, a former dairy farmer and, ironically, the nephew of Ontario agriculture minister Ernie Hardeman, who first proposed the bill, sounded the alarm: "People are going to get hurt because of this," he said.
His words are prescient, given Regan Russell's death.
There were already fears that someone could get hurt. Two years ago, Toronto Pig Save collected nearly 10,000 signatures on a change.org petition asking for a safety agreement with Fearmans Pork owner Michael Latifi. They were concerned about numerous "close calls" over the years with peaceful activists "nearly being severely injured" by truckers.
Russell's death has galvanized activists around the world who have held vigils in her honour and are carrying out a range of creative actions in her name, from "liberating" 50 turkeys from a farm in the U.K. and negotiating the release of two pigs (now named "Regan" and "Russell") from a factory farm in Iowa to gluing themselves to the road outside the Canadian embassy in London, England.
High-profile advocates have made statements about her commitment to animal rights, including PETA president Ingrid Newkirk and Greenpeace co-founder Paul Watson. More than 200 people have responded on Facebook that they plan to march in Russell's name this Friday, travelling from CBC headquarters in Toronto to Queen's Park. Toronto Pig Save, which made headlines when its founder, Anita Krajnc was charged with mischief after giving water to the pigs outside Fearmans, vows to repeal Bill 156. In its place, Krajnc wants a "Regan Russell Bill of Animal Rights."
For now, the vigils outside Fearmans are continuing — at least until Bill 156 comes into force. The massive factory, the size of several city blocks, doesn't appear to have a single window. It's set a long distance from the road, yet you can still hear the far-off squeals of terror from the desperate pigs.

When I read about theses activists, I wonder how they would react if the Israelite's rebuilt their temple and started their daily sacrifices? Can you imagine the turmoil during Passover? (Remember they used the cutest lambs)
I don't understand how one's life is worth pitying an animal on its way to slaughter (but I've been called cold hearted before). I'm sure if we knew how our vegetables were truly processed, we'd all eat meat.
I'm sure there are more humane ways to obtain our meat, but it would be far more expensive and harder to find.

Jocelyn Bell.
I am absolutely appalled at this biased, one-sided view being posted as an article in your magazine. I thought politics and faith were separate issues. This is not an informative, fact-based article. It is rhetoric from one side of the argument. You obviously fail to remember that many of your subscribers are the very people denigrated in this article. By the way, I consider myself to be part of the "niche audience of progressive Christians" you serve. I grew up on a family farm and eat meat. I do not shove my ideals down other people's throats. I am herewith cancelling any contact I receive from your magazine and will suggest my local United Church do the same.

Anyone who eats meat from factory farms is complicit in cruelty to animals. That is a simply fact.
Reply to John Dirlik
If so, please provide Biblical references to support you statement. You can kill animals in humane ways.
Agreed, but you can't make a martyr out of someone, if you show truth from both sides of the story.
Although God sees our lives worth dying for, we now have elevated animals to our level (or lowered our lives to theirs) by dying for them.
Perhaps we should throw ourselves in front of a flour tanker, to protest the processing and contaminants in it.

Well this 'story' is definitely one-sided. Those animals are going to be killed. Period. FULL stop! Any attempts at protesting will not and have not succeeded. Pig farmers and processors are legitimate businesses operating in this province. Time for these 'activists' to go after the real criminals - the illegal dog breeders.

This is the first I have heard of her death. Who killed her? It is most disheartening to know in this Country we are not so rich after all.
How we treat the lowest is who we are and its frightening to know Conservatives are more regressive than ever. The meat these poor animals have now given will not be healthy meat. Fear creates toxins in the body as people know fear causes huge amounts stress.
That drops the immune system and that can lead to illnesses such as cancer, as it did in me. Any animal that lives in such torturous conditions cannot have good meat to offer. Think of it starved of goodness by force feeding, dehydrated for convenience, how can that meat be offered as nutritious to any living creature including us?
And I thought we had some common sense and compassion, but it seems we have yet some grave lessons to learn about becoming human, Why governments are shushing up good people makes me wonder if you have abandoned God's creation and think we can do whatever we want. Freedom lives only when people are responsible. I see no love, respect for Creation, or health in any torturing of any living thing, Are we going back to the cave?
Or to equity? This road is not to Equity, but this good loving woman was leading us to the road of equity in honouring Creation and the Life it offers. To put it differently how can we allow such willful neglect causing such harm. This is more psychopathic behaviour than anything else. Thank God for people who stand up for what is both human and holy.

It's sad that she died as this world needs people like Regan. I grew up with large animal vets in the family, been to so many farms and most farm animals suffer, just because it's been done for years and some people are okay with it doesn't mean anything. the new bill is "ag-gah". Thank you Broadview for publishing this article. I don't enough has been published on the conditions and treatment of farmed animals.

I notice since my comment, you have changed the article heading to "opinion".
My "opinion" is further proved. Biased and rhetoric.

Suzanne, the driver in this incident has since been charged in her death, quite unjustly. There is an effort afoot to help raise money for their defense. You might, perhaps, put the money you might have sent Broadview (ironic title in this instance) to that effort instead. Look to Brussels Transport on facebook for more information.

Anyone who would reach through the metal grates of an 18-wheel transport truck idling on the road should know they are risking life and limb. How does creating a heart-stopping road hazard for the truck drivers help the pigs in any way?
And why the perception that animal farming is "secretive"? The livestock producers in my area offer occasional open house events and tours; you may not be able to handle the animals, but the biosecurity protocols are there to protect them from the germs YOU may be spreading. Canada's livestock industry is highly regulated and regularly inspected. Read Broadview's own article, "The secret lives of cows, chickens and pigs" referenced within this one.
The new legislation is for the protection of farmers, their families and property from over-zealous activists. 98% of Canadian farms are family owned; the farm is also the family home!

It is both a eulogy, opinion, and personal accident report. The author is clearly an animal rights supporter. Animal rights persons are the alt-right of our agri-food biology culture. Their evangelical zealotry is war like and fanatical. Animal welfare, is the label of the aspects of (mostly) food animal community where all are engaged in identifying and supporting humane standards of care and handling. And as in all areas of human work and activities, stuff happens that is criminal and inhumane. The animal rights crowd have little interest in the productive efforts of the animal welfare interests. They are simply anti-food animal other than pets, fans. Their simplistic fanaticism has and will take them into literal situations of great risk for personal injury and fatalities. It's like playing along the train tracks amongst the train traffic. The Darwin Awards gives a list every year.
The Ontario Fed of Ag and the Chicken Farmers statements summed it up quite distinctly and responsibly. Food animal culture and consumption is legal and as such deserves to be free of harassment and food safety violations.
Anne's beliefs eulogy is a mixture of who Ms. Russell was, sprinkled with some reality of our food production and consumption culture but in a way to view it from the "nice" side. She uses the approach " according to activists... - gassed,,., hung up, ", etc., etc. It is not rocket surgery that animal protein is processed to end up with the burgers, drumsticks, filets and bacon and I sure wouldn't cite the "activists" to describe the steps.. The processing of food involves many steps, many employees, machinery and nutritious meals prepared for our tables.
Broadview can publish animal rights provocative pieces if it chooses but I still respect the efforts of those thousands who go to work every day to provide us with meat protein foodstuffs that omnivore me enjoys. Maybe you should have an Obituary or Memorials section to the mag.

Many technologically important materials rely on nanostructured surfaces to achieve desired functional properties. As nanofabrication capabilities advance, chemically or electronically active materials routinely consist of films only Angstroms in thickness and forming spatially isolated patterns with some lateral dimensions in the low nanometers. Example systems include core-shell structures used in catalyst systems, layered two-dimensional (2D) materials used in nanoelectronics, and self-aligned chemical patterning used for semiconductor manufacturing. This research opportunity focuses on metrology for the chemical characterization of surfaces and interfaces found in heterogeneous thin film and nanoparticle systems. Of particular interest are species distributions on patterned surfaces, nucleation and film formation, and dynamical surface processes occurring during vapor/gas phase chemical processes. Available resources include chemical vapor and atomic layer deposition systems with optical diagnostic tools for thin film growth and surface modification, cleanroom facilities for nanofabrication, and state-of-the-art synchrotron X-ray beamline facilities, operated by NIST at Brookhaven National Laboratory, to perform X-ray absorption near edge spectrometry (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) experiments.


This family room looks so warm. I bet the family who lives in this house must be close to each other. There is no transition between the media room and the lounge and it make the family room airy. Joined with the kitchen, the room still looks neat and cozy. I think this room is a great inspiration for me and for others who has limited rooms and want to merge a room for several purposes. I love the concept that seems odd for many people but it worth give a try. The table tennis table plays well as the transition media between the kitchen and the family room.
