Dark Emu: Precolonial Australian native society - agricultural or hunter-gatherer?
Unlikely. You would need to be running faster the Husan Bolt. And if you could do that I would wonder why you were wasting time posting here instead of training for the 2020 Summer Olympics.
Well, he is obviously a troll. Look how he came in here ; did not read opening thread, the book in question or the summary. Immediately tried to mock and stir people up, tried a few insults about what he thought Aussies might be sensitive about. We had a laugh with him about it, and served a little back to him. Now he is upset and wants to fight about it . Thats why he is waisting his time here .
I've actually eaten kangaroo sausages before. Good eatin.
By the way, I'm a big sport hunter. Is hunting for kangaroos and emus legal in Australia? I'm actually serious, as I would enjoy a hunting trip in the Australian bush.
I would like to eat kangaroo again, and I have yet to try emu. But I heard it is better tasting than ostrich.
Oh sure . I used to go spotlighting as a youngun . Its a shame the nation never took to eating kangaroo, as they can reach plague proportions if not managed ... if you get my drift . You might be a little inexperienced though, things are different here .
I could get one of our girls to show you how to do it . But they often like to do it without a gun, just a big knife, and not a roo but a wild piggy, and you can take your dog too .
Good stuff man. I enjoy hunting almost as much as I enjoy eating.
Now ... be a good boy and go and actually start reading the thread .
And ask VALID questions .
The indigenous people's did not have writing or tools, for agriculture or otherwise.
How much of it is distinguishable from what stone age tribes did? Whenever someone says "indigenous people in Australia had that", what they really mean is "they had a version of it, under definition xyz, but that version was stuff stone age tribes also had", which is kind of the problem with invoking this stuff as a rebuttal to "weren't they a stone age people?" I don't think it's due to any natural superiority, etc, nobody has even hinted at that, I would think the environmental factors, chance, geographic location, etc, explain the lack of development; but that they lacked development isn't something one can debate. It's like when someone said they had "mining", but the version of "mining" they had was hacking hunks of clay out of the side of caves that had clay in it, using sticks. It's not the sophisticated and technical process evoked to the layperson by the term mining.
How much of it is distinguishable from what stone age tribes did?
Did stone age tribes by their use of fire create and maintain a tapestry of game reserves, interspersed with extensively tilled vegetable (murnong) gardens, some of which were terraced (such as the hills of Melbourne)? Did stone age tribes plant seed ahead of the rains in otherwise desert landscapes? IDK. Did they make fishing nets? Did stone age people build houses and villages? I have not studied the literature on the people of the stone age, and how their society functioned. Since you seem impressed with European history perhaps you can answer these questions.
As for eating emu. I was not impressed, extremely mild flavor, really was not worth the expense. Kangaroo meat can be found in many places, not that hard to get. When you cook it, be aware it really never loses its raw look, so test how well done the meat is by touch rather than looking.
Crocodile tastes exactly the same as alligator, though the meat has a really strange consistency.
Yeah, we have some pretty good sized wild boars where I live. Big as bears with tusks like razors. You definitely want to make sure you get a clean shot otherwise one of those buggers will tear you to shreds. Nothing lighter than a 30-06, though personally I prefer my Weatherby 300 magnum. Did not know there were wild boar in Australia, though considering the ones that live here were originally European imports it doesn't surprise me.
Didn't realize that about kangaroo meat, as I had eaten it only once. Someone ordered it for me from an exotic meat website as a Christmas gift. Though I still wouldn't mind going kangaroo hunting, as deer can be dazzled in a similar manner. Though that is illegal in most states.
Gator is some of the best meat I've ever eaten. I wasn't aware crocodile could be eaten as a matter of fact. I heard the meat sticks to the armor plating or something along those lines. Heard it was nearly inedible. Though big game hunting for a massive 20ft 20000+ lb saltwater crocodile in the outback would be well worth the effort at any rate.

Most states prohibit high school NIL deals. But what if you're Olympic swimmer Claire Curzan?
Chapel Fowler
Claire Curzan capped the most decorated career in North Carolina high school swimming history with four more state titles and an American record in the women's 100-yard butterfly in February.
Two weeks later, she dove into a new venture: name, image and likeness.
"I am so excited to join Team TYR!" Curzan, a senior at Cardinal Gibbons High School in Raleigh, wrote in an Feb. 25 Instagram post announcing her partnership with the California-based competitive swimwear giant.
By March 2, she'd secured another contract and her own personal discount code, CLAIRE10, with Death Valley Nails, a Texas-based company offering "vegan, cruelty-free and nontoxic" nail polishes and more.
If that timing looked strategic, it's because it was.
College athletics changed forever last summer when the NCAA approved blanket legislation that allowed all its athletes to benefit monetarily off their name, image and likeness.
But amateurism, mostly, remains the name of the game at the high school level. The national governing body for high school athletics is strongly opposed to NIL, and the North Carolina High School Athletic Association, under which Curzan competed, bans athletes from accepting performance-based money.
As such, the Curzan family's foray into NIL offers an intriguing case study.
NIL in NC:Where do the state's public and private school HS athletic associations stand?
NIL in NC:How much money could top NC prep athletes hypothetically make off deals?
For Claire, 17, who swam for Team USA in the 2020 Summer Olympics, "it was definitely an exciting time," she said. "I had never imagined I'd have these opportunities at this level in my life."
And for Curzan's mother, Tracy, a former Division I soccer and lacrosse player at Harvard, it further illuminated the amateurism debate that long hung over college athletics and has now reached the high school stage.
"It is hard to decide on getting an education versus making a living," she said. "If you've got a gift, you shouldn't have to choose between an education and that … (NIL) just opened up all these new avenues."
Olympic opportunity
Entering last summer, Curzan was already a household name on the club and high school swim scenes: a butterflying, backstroking record setter who ranked as SwimSwam's No. 1 recruit in the 2022 class.
But, she said, "the Olympics definitely helped."
Curzan drew national headlines as she finished second in the 100-meter butterfly during the US Olympic Team Trials in June 2021, qualifying for the Olympics at age 16.
"Everything was incredible," said Curzan, who won a silver medal as part of Team USA's 4x100-meter medley relay team in Tokyo.
Now established as a rising star, Curzan returned home to Cary and started feeling ripple effects: a handful of companies, she said, were reaching out to her parents to discuss partnerships.
If Curzan was a college athlete, those NIL deals would have been fine under the NCAA directives that went into effect July 1, 2021.
But Curzan wasn't UNC football's Storm Duck, who parlayed a unique name into a unique T-shirt. Or NC State basketball's Elissa Cunane, who partnered with Italian restaurant and campus staple Amedeo's. Or Duke basketball's Paolo Banchero, who popped up in Panini trading card sets and NBA 2K22 MyTeam.
She was a rising senior at Raleigh's Cardinal Gibbons High School, which, like dozens of other members, adheres to extensive bylaws governing state public high school athletics.
That includes Section 1.2.15: the "Amateur Rule."
"So we had to make the decision," Tracy said.
NIL: stay or go?
Under the NCHSAA's amateur rule, "under no circumstance" can any athlete or team accept money "as a result of athletic ability/performance." There are minor caveats for non-transferrable gifts, such as free meals and trophies, but it's a mostly blanket rule that starts in ninth grade. The penalty is ineligibility.
That's the context Curzan and her parents were working under last August, when she flew back to the Triangle with an Olympic silver medal.
Club swim or high school swim?
Under the former, she'd be free to sign an NIL contract while competing for the Cary-based Triangle Aquatic Center Titans but forfeit her NCHSAA eligibility. Under the latter, she'd put NIL possibilities to the side and remain eligible to compete for Cardinal Gibbons as a senior.
'It's here much faster than we thought:' How NIL forced a reckoning in high school sports Across the South, NIL is forcing the hand of high school athletic associations Explaining Arch Manning's shocking NIL valuation — and what it means for his final LHSAA season Most states prohibit high school NIL deals. But what if you're Olympic swimmer Claire Curzan?
"I'd actually just taken an econ course, which was all stocks, stocks, stocks," Curzan said with a laugh. "Like, the earlier you invest, the better. So that was in the background of my thought process."
"But," she added, "it's not like anything was going to happen between the Olympics and the end of school …"
The road more traveled won out.
'Exciting frontier'
On April 23, ahead of a national team event, Curzan posted an Instagram video of her packing up TYR products – flippers, pullovers, swim caps and more – set to Surfaces' 2021 pop song "Come With Me."
That clip, which racked up 4,000 likes and almost 85,000 views, was a prime example of the content Curzan has created as a brand ambassador since late February.
Non-disclosure agreements prevent the family from sharing further contract details, but there is a charitable aspect at play: Curzan is donating 100% of her Death Valley Nails proceeds to Walk For Hope, a local mental health initiative.
That slots in alongside what's safe to assume is a more expansive (and lucrative) NIL contract with TYR, where she joins an endorsement lineup that also includes Olympic gold medalists Michael Andrew, Katie Ledecky and Ryan Lochte.
"We're learning almost every day," her father, Mark, said. "It's an exciting frontier."
Though Curzan's growing stardom is a good problem to have, it can also be a bit daunting. The family communicates frequently with Stanford's NIL-specific compliance department ahead of each and every deal, even if it's as small as a one-off social post.
For Curzan, NIL deals come down to "seeing me as a person instead of just an asset," she said. Yes, she's one of USA Swimming's top young talents. But she's also a 17-year-old who loves doing her nails and hanging out poolside. She has a serious sweet tooth. She devours novels. She watches a lot of TikTok.
"I'd love to do the things that intrigue me and make me excited," she said, "but if I'm either too busy or too stressed or something just doesn't seem like an option for me, I'd want them to respect that, too."
And so progresses a one-of-a-kind dip into NIL for a one-of-a-kind swimmer.
"Being able to enjoy my sport and also be able to benefit from it is super cool – I love it," Curzan said. "It's a little scary sometimes with all of the new opportunities, but I think it'll be great for the future."

Lao man sentenced to life in Vietnam for cocaine smuggling
A court in Ho Chi Minh City on August 16 sentenced a Lao man to life imprisonment for illegal drug trafficking.
KhamChanh Daovone, 31, was arrested at Tan Son Nhat International Airport on September 23, 2013 after customs officials discovered 2.4 kilograms (5.3 pounds) of cocaine in his luggage.
Kham claimed his girlfriend Puoy gave him the suitcase and $800 for him to travel from Laos to the Philippines in September 2013. Upon arrival, he was greeted by an African man who claimed to be Pouy's friend and took Kham's suitcase for safekeeping.
The African man returned the suitcase to Kham before he set off back to Laos, but he didn't make it that far and was arrested while transiting in Ho Chi Minh City after two bags of cocaine were found hidden in the suitcase.
Kham claimed he did not know the suitcase contained drugs. However, the court on August 16 dismissed his argument and agreed that he had to take full responsibility for the crime.
Prosecutors had called for the death penalty, but the court decided to show leniency, saying he was a foreigner with a good background and the drugs had not made it onto the streets.
Vietnam has some of the world's toughest drug laws. Those convicted of possessing or smuggling more than 600 grams of heroin or cocaine or more than 2.5kg of methamphetamine face the death penalty.
The production or sale of 100 grams of heroin or 300 grams of other illegal narcotics is also punishable by death.

> Greek lifestyle > Greeks sell sunshine
Greek islands set to sell sunshine
Solar panels may raise millions
Greek islands set to sell sunshine.
Greece could be set to sell its holiday sunshine in a bid to clear the country's multi-billion euro debt mountain.
The Helios project, named after the ancient sun god, aims to erect enough solar panel across the country to create 10 gigawatts of solar power. Greek holiday sunshine energy could then be sold to Greece's north European neighbours such as Germany and the UK.
Not only will the sunshine sell-off raise an estimated €15 billion to help Greece's beleaguered economy it could also help north European countries to meet strict EU targets for power sourced from renewable energy.
Greece hopes to secure a framework agreement with European partners for the project by the end of the year and to be turning out 10 gigawatts of clean energy by 2050.
Despite up to 13 hours of summer sunshine daily across Greece and the Greek Islands, large scale solar panel projects have been slow to develop in Greece.
However, in January, Greece announced plans to build a 200 megawatt solar park in northern Greece.
The latest plan could create jobs by harvesting Greece's abundant sunshine and shipping it to Germany, which is committed to moving away from nuclear power. following the recent nuclear disaster in Japan.
The Helios project could help breathe life the Greek economy while helping Germany prepare for a clean energy future.


Emerging markets: Expansion, Innovation and Partnership.
On 13 december 2018, we hosted a webcast for investors and analysts on China and Emerging markets.
Our quarterly sales in Emerging Markets have steadily increased over the past years; from around 1 billion US dollars to more than 1.5 billion US dollars per quarter and from a bit less than 20% of sales to now more than 1/3 of sales.
We have a three-pillar strategy in Emerging Markets, which was originally built upon the China strategy of Expansion, Innovation and Partnership.
Market access is especially critical to expansion, so we can reach more patients with our medicines in previously-inaccessible countries.
Regarding innovation, our aim is to strongly contribute to patient-centric, fully-integrated ecosystems. We also aim to discover and develop new medicines in Emerging Markets that are fit for our patient populations in those markets.
Partnership is more than just a word or intention – at AstraZeneca we proactively work with local and central governments and local partners. We also work closely with local healthcare providers and local capital markets where possible.
We are proud to be present in China for over 25 years now. We have invested, and continue to invest, in local R&D and manufacturing in Taizhou and Wuxi.
We are the number two multinational in China, AstraZeneca's second-largest market globally. Importantly, we've been growing faster than any other multinational company in China for several years.


A FURIOUS reaction was generated by an article on a new grazing agreement for Llanllechid common, near Bethesda.
A FURIOUS reaction was generated by an article on a new grazing agreement for Llanllechid common, near Bethesda, in the April 9 edition of the Daily Post.
I HAVE been a law-abiding, tax-paying farmer who has been a grazier on Llanllechid mountain for 36 years.
I have now been labelled a rebel because I will not sign up to such an inadequate deal - one that will eventually ruin the wildlife and grasslands on the mountains.
It is a well-known fact that mountain farmers are the preservers of the land.
As a result of the behind-the-door connivance of nowdonia National Park Authority, the Countryside Council for Wales and the community council, I have lost a significant amount of my annual income - which I cannot afford.
I object to the bullying tactics of the various authorities for trying to show honest graziers in a bad light - just for standing up for their historic and legal rights.
If this means being called a rebel, then so be it, but I would like the public to understand that I feel discriminated against in a very underhand way, and that the Press is being used to make me and my fellow graziers (not a few, but many) look like the ones out of step.
Pleased be advised that we are not.
FIRSTLY, to compare the agreement with the one which was drawn up for the next door common of Aber and Llanfairfechan is totally wrong.
That agreement was made with all the active graziers consulted and invited to all meetings involved in drawing up an agreement with the SNP and the CCW and was then voted upon democratically by every grazier for the process to set up a grazing agreement.
Sadly the same cannot be said for Llanllechid where the agreement has been made by a few which has the effect of reducing incomes for a large number who weren't consulted.
Whatever else happens that leaves a very unpleasant taste and is hardly the best way of encouraging the means to "heal old wounds" as the article suggests.
CCW chairman John Lloyd Jones has referred to the ancient tradition of grazing on Llanllechid, but he ignores the fact that the "upland heath, blanket bog and grasslands which support the chough" etc were put there by generations of farmers working in harmony with nature and the environment.
The loss of the grazing animals and the farmers who care for them working as economic units ware now threatened by the "bogus agreement".
It will result not only in less stock but also less farmers and a consequent reduction in the ability of the community to remain viable.
Mr Lloyd pays lip-service to the need to safeguard the tradition but his organisation seems to be directly involved in presiding over its downfall.
The key element here is the need for harmony and that will only happen with an open and honest approach which has been lacking with the way the authorities have dealt with the total community of Llanllechid graziers.
I do not like being described as a rebel grazier for under the 1965 Commons Registration Act myself, my family and all other members of the Llanllechid Graziers Association have full and legal rights to graze our animals upon the common of Llanllechid.
My own family and many other members families have exercised these rights over many centuries.
As I have pointed out earlier, these hills are in their beautiful and bountiful state because of our care and attention to the welfare of our animals and the common they graze on.
Then if I am being described as a rebel so be it.
If it means that I am one of the people who will make a stand against what appears to be a serious attack of organized bullying by authorities who seems to be able to act without redress, then I will wear the badge with pride.
THE deal which has been struck has not been agreed to by all the graziers, but only by a few.
I speak as a grazier of 40 years, who has followed several generation of families who have grazed stock on the Common of Llanllechid.
I wish to draw attention to the fact that I believe the actions of individuals who have acted on behalf of the Countryside Council for Wales, Snowdonia National Park and, in particular, Llanllechid Community Council - who are the trustees to the majority of the grazing rights - have not been in the best interests of the Llanllechid community.
As a consequence of their bullying tactics and discriminating actions, I have personally suffered a serious loss of income.
I was not properly consulted on the detail of the so-called agreement, which we are now being persuaded to accept, and because I disagree with what is being done, I have been branded a "rebel".
All I have done until now, is to refuse to bow down to the bully-boy methods of the authorities, only some of which are elected. Why should that make me a rebel?

"SPECTRE" stunts not allowed near Four Fountains (The Quattro Fontane) in Rome, Italy?
Planned car chase between the Aston Martin and Jaguar near Four Fountains in Rome, Italy might need some changes in "SPECTRE" (2015), because cultural heritage officials of Rome are afraid that fountains are too fragile and might be damaged during the filming.
"We have asked the producers not to film there but instead to create the sequence with special effects in post-production. At the moment the scene has been suspended, and we're waiting for the producers to tell us how they intend to resolve the problem.", says cultural heritage official Federica Galloni.
Filming of "SPECTRE" (2015), which stars Daniel Craig as 007, is expected to move to Rome on 19 February and to last for about five weeks.
The filming is also supposed to happen at least in Corso Vittorio Emanuele, Lungo Tevere as well as Borgo Vittorio and Ponte Sisto. Royal Palace of Caserta is also mentioned in some reports. Palace is located in Campania, outside of Rome.

Home » World » Top 10 Bravest Children in the World
There are a large number of children in this whole world who have stand out from others and have done wonders. These brave works which these children have done has made them real super heroes. It is in fact the blessing for most of us are in this league and watch them doing great and amazing works. With the wonderful bravery in their mind thee work that they have started have really safe the world in many ways. Here is our list of top ten such children who have worked very hard and have in fact saved the world with their work.
1. The prom-bound teens who came to the aid of car-crash victims
Wearing three-piece suits and floor-sweeping gowns, 20 seniors from Western High in Davie, Fla., were heading to their prom in a white stretch limo on May 11. In front of them on a highway, a Honda Odyssey van started swerving wildly, nearly driving on two wheels, until it hit a side barrier and flipped over. The limo screeched to a halt, narrowly missing the van, whose passengers were already in a panic, yelling, crying and trying to free themselves from the broken glass and crumpled metal. The limo driver and the students scrambled out to help. The limo driver reportedly kicked one door open to get access to the passengers inside. A student climbed on top of the van, forced the sliding door open, and reached inside to free some of the passengers. There were young kids in the van, including a small child who was stuck under one of the seats. The limo driver was able to pull the child out and handed the kid over to one of the gown-clad students. The group continued to help the bloodied and petrified passengers until firefighters and police arrived. All told, seven injured passengers were taken to nearby hospitals. And the students? They were shaken but continued on. "I went on to prom and a lot of girls were helping me get the blood out of my dress, so it was good,"
2. The high school baseball team that lifted a car to save a life
On May 8, in the parking lot of Sacramento's Valley High School, a student's mom was picking her daughter up when she hit a car in front of her. Panicked, she quickly reversed, not realizing her daughter was directly behind the car. The girl was hit and became trapped under the car. Meanwhile, Valley's varsity and junior varsity baseball teams were having their last practice of the season nearby. They heard desperate screams for help. The team sprinted toward the parking lot, jumping over fences to get there. About a dozen of the players surrounded the car, lifting the four-door sedan off of the girl. The teams' assistant coach pulled the girl out and she was sent to a hospital, where she was reportedly expected to recover.
3. The 14-year-old who protected a rape victim from her assailant
James Persyn III was home alone on Jan. 16 watching his two younger siblings when he heard frantic banging at the door of his house in a small Michigan town. Though frightened, James unlocked the door to an alarming sight — a woman, a senior at Central Michigan University, who was wrapped in clear packing tape, with bruises on her face, and cradling one arm. She said she'd been raped by a man who held her at gunpoint and was transporting her in a car when she escaped. James could see headlights coming up his long, winding driveway. The 14-year-old wasted no time. He locked all the house doors, herded everyone into the bathroom, turned off the lights, grabbed his hunting knife and waited. The alleged rapist, Eric Ramsey, came pounding at the door, reportedly screaming, "Let me in or I'll kill you!" James called his dad and the victim called 911, so help was on the way. But Ramsey, unable to break in, had moved onto another plan, pouring gasoline on the house and setting it ablaze. Luckily, James' father came home in time to put the fire out before it could spread. Police and an ambulance soon followed. The attacker escaped the scene but was later shot and killed.
4. The 14-year-old who saved a young boy from a burning building
One evening last September, Marcos Ugarte was doing homework with his dad when the two saw an orange-red hue down their street. They ran to their neighbor's home in Troutdale, Ore., to find the house aflame and four of the five family members safe outside. The father who lived in the burning home, You "Alex" Ma, said his 8-year-old son Cody was trapped in a room on the second floor. Marcos offered to run inside, but his father, Eduardo, told him to stay put while he attempted to retrieve Cody. The heat and smoke forced the elder Ugarte out, but Marcos was already on the move. He got ahold of a ladder and placed it under the second-story window. With his father holding the ladder in place, Marcos knocked the window screen out and guided the boy out the window and down the ladder. Cody was taken to the hospital, but was unharmed. While the Ugarte family is proud of their son, Marcos himself remains humble: "I can't say I really consider myself a hero," "I think anyone would have done what I did."
5. The 16-year-old who braved thin ice to save a boy from drowning
In the winter of 2011, Kole Devisscher was driving by a stretch of the Red River in Winnipeg, Manitoba, when he noticed a blue jacket floating in the freezing waters. Curious, he backed up his truck for another look to find that a young boy was struggling to get out of a crack in the ice. The 16-year-old used his truck's tow strap to pull the 10-year-old out, but the boy wasn't able to grab the rope because his hands were already turning blue. Devisscher made a loop out of the rope and threw it back into the river, telling the boy to put it around his shoulders. It worked. Devisscher was honored with an award for bravery, which he said was " preety awsome." When asked about his heroic act he said only that "I hope someone else would do that for me if I was in the same situation."
6. The 16-year-old who saved his fellow campers during a bear attack
In July 2011, a group of teenagers ranging in age from 16 to 18 were attacked by a mother grizzly bear while on a survival-skills course in Alaska. The teens were on day 24 of a 30-day trek and traveling, at that point, without adults. All seven of the teens survived, including two who suffered life-threatening wounds, largely thanks to 16-year-old Samuel Boas, who was reportedly not injured. For 9 hr the group waited for emergency workers to reach them, and all the while Boas, who had been trained by his Connecticut hometown EMS group, administered first aid with improvised materials while staying calm. When medics arrived on the scene, the industrious young man even refused to be evacuated with the first lot, staying on with the remaining injured to do what he could.
7. The 18-year-old who pulled the driver out of a truck hanging off a cliff
Peter Hanne was in his New Zealand home late one night in 2008 when a panicked knock came at the door. A passerby said a truck was on the brink of falling into the Waioeka Gorge, a riverway just a few hundred yards from Hanne's house. The 18-year-old didn't even think to grab his shoes; he just told his family to call the cops and rushed to the scene himself. He found the 23-ton truck had jackknifed over the side of the road and was teetering on the edge, with the cab — and the driver inside — dangling underneath it. "I knew the normal thing to do was call the fire brigade and wait, but I heard it creaking and I knew we needed to get him out pretty quick," Hanne said. The young man climbed down the steep bank and into the space between the trailer and the cab. He broke the rear window with a wheel brace and helped the injured driver climb out. Hanne's bold rescue left even the police in awe. "We're always complaining about our young people… but here is one young man who has really laid his life on the line for another. He is a real hero," the police constable said.
8. The teen who saved his South Dakota school from a Columbine-like tragedy
Before Sandy Hook, Virginia Tech, and Columbine, there almost could have been Rapid City, had it not been for the swift acts of senior Chris Ericks. On Sept. 11, 1991, 17-year-old Ryan Harris entered Stevens High School in Rapid City, S.D., walked into a math class, demanded that the teacher leave, and held 22 of his fellow students, including Ericks, hostage with a 12-gauge sawed-off shotgun. For four hours, the students cowered, while the young man blared demands for pizza, cigarettes, $1 million, and a helicopter getaway over the public address system, accenting each order by firing his weapon into the classroom. He shot at the chalkboard, the ceiling, and the window,making it clear that he had plenty of ammo and that he would leave no survivors. But then, for one moment, Harris put his gun down and Ericks lunged for it. Harris, realizing his mistake, jumped at the shotgun too, and the pair struggled for control. Ericks, however, won the tug-of-war, and the gunman was overpowered. "
9. The 14-year-old who saved two men from drowning
Gordon Arnette's inner alarm went off when he heard Jimmy Dowd and Thomas McGarry loudly announce one June day in 1989 that they were going for a swim in the Norwalk River. The Connecticut teen said it was clear the two men, who he had chatted with at a neighborhood pharmacy, had been drinking, so he followed them down to the banks of the river and even asked them not to go in. But they refused and jumped into the swirling river, where they were quickly swept away by the heavy current, their heads bobbing in and out of the water. Arnette sprang into action, jumping into a nearby inflatable raft and paddling some 130 feet with his hands to reach the drowning men. Arnette grabbed Dowd with one hand and then paddled another 30 feet to McGarry who had begun to have a seizure. The teen left Dowd hanging on the raft and dove into the water to retrieve McGarry. "It was hard, but I grabbed him by his chin like they taught me in school, and I got his arm and put it over the other side of the raft," he said. By the time police arrived, Arnette had already safely paddled the two men to shore, where they had collapsed, semi-conscious. "If [Arnette] had not take action, McGarry would have perished," the official police report said. Ironically, the high school sophomore, who dreamed of becoming a lifeguard, had been told by his P.E. teacher just a few weeks prior that he wasn't a strong enough swimmer for the job.
10. Nazzi Attack
This Jewish girl was born in the year 1929 in Frankfurt, Germany. She became a well-known face around the globe when her diary which contained the real life brutal story of her hiding from the Nazi party taking over Netherlands during the Second World War was published. In 1933 she along with her family shifted to Amsterdam. But after the Nazi people attacked the Jewish people she had to hide in order to live for quite a sometime. She could not survive this tragic moment in her life and died in the year 1945. It was his father who got her work published and with the help of this book world came to know about the torture which the Nazi party people did on the people.

YOUNG people in Huddersfield are invited to apply for the 4front Awards 2005.
They are being urged to apply for a series of cash awards.
Anyone aged 11 to 25 can apply for one of the eight £3,000 Camelot Foundation awards.
The categories are: Improving my community; health and wellbeing; standing up for my rights and arts and music.
Candidates should send in a five-minute video of their ideas and say why they deserve the award.


In 1929, Fred and Odessa Newman purchased property along the shores of Birch Bay, Washington. They loved the water and by renting out cabins they were able to share the Bay with friends, old and new, who stayed at Newmans Grove. By the 1970's their daughter and husband assumed the small resort and it became known as Parker-Newman Grove. In the 1990's their Granddaughter took over the resort and decided it needed a new name.
When the tide was out, everyone would play on the beach, building sandcastles, clam digging, and playing in tide pools. When the tide was in, they would crab, fish, barbecue and join around a beach fire as the sun set. One day the granddaughter was out walking on the beach reflecting on what a young girl asked her – "Where does the tide go when it is out?" and it struck her that everyone, along every shore, of every ocean, is waiting to catch the tide and the Tide Catcher Resort name was born.
By 2015, the cabins had reached the end of their life, and so permanent rental homes were built, and while the people staying were now permanent renters, they also love the water and the property lives on as the Tide Catcher.


We knew that drones could go fast, but not this fast. Here's some grainy first-person footage from flyer Patrick Gaborik's incredibly fast miniquadcopter, which has been tracked at speeds up to 145 mph. The noise the motors make sound like it's going to rip itself apart.


Happy Easter everyone. It's going to be a (relatively) short Report this week, but we do have a lot to cover.
Do you remember that scene at the end of The Godfather — and the similar, even better one at the end of Godfather II — when Michael "settles all of the family's business" on a single day?
Don Corleone, meet Donald Trump.
Lots has been made of the Syria strike, in which the President responded to Russian client Bashar Assad's use of WMDs against his own people by striking the base from which they attacked. Trump took out 20% of the Syrian Air Force without a single U.S. casualty, and promised to do far worse if Assad again crosses the "red line".
Oh, and he did it on almost no notice to Russia, while Chinese President Xi Jinping shared dinner with him at Mar-a-Lago.
Politics makes strange bedfellows. Many of Trump's most vociferous opponents — in both parties — cheered. Some of Trump's supporters decried his "going into Syria" (as though 59 cruise missiles constitute an invasion); a few even condemned his failure to seek a formal declaration of war (for a one-off strike?!), while others — particular on Facebook — became utterly hysterical in fear of World War III (because Russia, which completely sat out our attack on its ally, is so likely to trade Moscow for New York over it).
And of course there were the predictable discussions of whether a Tomahawk strike was cost-effective, whether it would accomplish anything, blah blah blah.
All of that completely missed the point.
Even this reconstruction won't fully capture Don Trumpleone's big move.
First, the Syrian strike was genuinely "America First". That seems counterintuitive, but it isn't. Allowing anyone to use WMDs encourages more use, and the more people have them — not to mention use them — the more people have to have them, and the sooner one gets used on the New York City subway.
Barack Obama was right to designate chemical weapons use as a "red line." But then he lost all credibility by doing nothing when Assad crossed it. Donald Trump just showed you can take decisive action in support of this vital aim, without the giant land war Obama, McCain and Graham wanted. This was a page straight out of Ronald Reagan: remember his 1981 Libyan showdown? And by explicitly enforcing Obama's "red line", he drew a contrast between himself and his predecessor no serious person, here or overseas, missed. They won't forget it.
Second, Assad may have been punished, but Vladimir Putin was humiliated. For all the World War III talk (mostly from Millennial libertarians), don't you find it odd that none of America's cruise missiles were shot down? Either Russia entirely abandoned its ally, or its much vaunted S-400 air defense system is a dud. Either way, if you're Iran — which depends not just on Russia but on its older S-300 system — Israel and the U.S. just got a whole lot scarier.
Oh, and if you're the Russian arms industry — an essential source of Putin's cash in an age of permanently fracked oil prices — you probably need to expect a lot of foreign orders to get cancelled.
Third, did I just mention Xi was sitting beside Trump, eating a lovely chocolate cake in the latter's Florida home, when all this went down?
Syria was a most unexpected addition to the menu. North Korea, in the middle of another round of war threats, was not.
The normal course of the perennial North Korean crises is a good-cop bad-cop routine, in which North Korea acts crazy and threatens to nuke the world, while the Beltway Establishment — RINOs and Democrats alike — marvel that anyone would act this way (this sort of behavior being out of place on Martha's Vineyard, after all). Since they can't comprehend it, they beg China to help them apply pressure to the NORKs. The Chinese resist this, and then pretend to relent in exchange for trade concessions. The Beltway guys are thrilled, having averted a fake war by giving both China and the NORKs all kinds of expensive goodies.
We've been doing this since Bill Clinton. We're not doing it anymore.
The effect of Trump's Syrian reprisal was profound. Almost immediately, after months of pretending compliance with a UN resolution, the Chinese cut off NORK coal imports, and even started turning back NORK freighters. Coal is Kim's biggest export by far, and its hard to build a nuclear ICBM program without cash.
Oh, and from where did China replace that NORK coal? That's right: they bought American.
Then, after what was described as "a productive phone call between Trump and Xi", Chinese state media reported yesterday that the ChiComs are massing 150,000 troops on the Yalu River. And if that weren't enough, a CCP-run newspaper baldly stated that if the NORKs cross China's "bottom line", China will take out North Korea's nuclear sites itself.
One day: Syria, Russia, Iran, China, North Korea.
So why the Chinese turnaround? Or perhaps more precisely, why did Xi take Trump seriously when neither he nor any of his predecessors thought of any of Trump's recent predecessors as anything but suckers and marks?
Well first of all, Trump's strike in Syria makes the possibility of a pre-emptive strike against the NORKs believable, not so much highly probable as actually possible. That's a distinct change. The Chinese, like everyone else, know that the most likely pre-emptive strike against North Korea's hardened bunkers would be nuclear, and even if it wasn't (perhaps especially if it wasn't) the chaos on its border would — at best — be catastrophic for the teetering Chinese economy.
That might be a slim risk, but it is a risk, which was never true under Bush/Clinton/Bush/Obama.
But second, Trump did what Trump does: he designed all of this for maximum persuasive value. With Assad in the rubble and Putin humiliated — all while Xi watched surprised from Mar-a-Lago — Trump then sent what he termed "an armada" toward North Korea, and allowed senior officials to talk about decapitation strikes, basing nukes in the South, and other things that sounded…real.
Yes, just like back during the campaign, Trump is questioning Xi's manhood. And as with Liddle Marco and "Low Energy" Jeb!, it's working. It would be hard, if not politically impossible, for China to go easy on Kim from this point on.
As the whole world knows by now, MOAB — or "the Mother of All Bombs" — is the largest non-nuclear bomb ever created. This was its first-ever deployment in battle. Trump's use of it against an ISIS cave complex killed something like 100 terrorists and destroyed a huge weapons cache, in addition to ruining an underground transit network in use since the early days of the War on Terror.
But obviously, MOAB is really about North Korea.
Some claim that MOAB is not well-suited for destroying the NORK's hardened nuclear bunkers. And maybe that's true. But once again, that also entirely misses the point.
The point of the MOAB strike is not whether MOAB would be useful against NORK targets. The point is that Trump's choice of this particular Afghan target at this precise time forces Pyongyang and Beijing to wonder whether Trump might be battle-testing it for use there.
"Everyone knows" it would take a super bomb to destroy the NORK bunkers, and presumably that means nuclear. It stretches credulity to believe an American President would actually nuke the NORKs, particularly preemptively. But it's Trump, and so for all the reasons just discussed and more, they're not so sure.
But now he's dropped the world's biggest conventional bomb — which we've had for years but never used, and was certainly not part of their calculations — on an underground target, successfully.
That forces them to think Trump believes he has a conventional solution, and that this might be part of his plan. And that forces them to think there might actually be a plan. And that forces them to consider the cost of continuing as they are.
Testing a nuclear gravity bomb yesterday, delivered by F-16, might make them think Trump has a backup plan too, just in case.
Just a footnote. Our guys over here at Eglin Air Force base — just across the bay, out my window — designed and tested MOAB. The lead designer went to school with Sherri. We're pretty proud.
Even before all this, the Trump-Russia story was imploding. There is still not one shred of evidence — after six long months of innuendo — and when even #NeverTrump sites like Ben Shapiro's Daily Wire are calling a halt, you know the jig is up.
Post-Syria, though, the left descended into total moonbattery. MSNBC was not the only leftist organ to simply lose its mind, claiming all of this was an elaborate set-up to throw Rachel Maddow off the trail. They gravely assured us she would not be thrown off.
Here's the thing: as with 9/11 Trutherism (also embraced at MSNBC, most notably by the racist anti-Semite and very much cancelled host Touré), this is the sort of thing that makes normal people write you off as a raving loon.
Fortunately for us, as Larry the Cable Guy would put it, "you can't fix stupid." So Larry O'Donnell and Rachel Maddow are our RMR Idiots of the Week.
By the way, the same goes for the Trump-Obama wiretapping scandal. As the aforementioned #NeverTrump site puts it, Trump has been 100% vindicated on wiretapping. The ugliness uncovered about the semi-police state Barack Obama was running — a foretaste of which we saw with his criminal abuses at the IRS — is pretty horrifying, and evidence is mounting that not only was Obama spying on his domestic enemies during the campaign, but that the White House politicized intelligence to affect the outcome of the election.
Let's just say it's a good thing we won.
John Nolte's article on wiretapping is a must-read. Take a minute and see what I mean.
The promise that got Donald Trump elected was to faithfully replace Antonin Scalia with a worthy conservative successor: this was the central reason Trump won Evangelicals 80-16. On Monday, Neil Gorsuch was sworn in, fulfilling Trump's solemn promise and restoring the status quo ante.
Right or wrong, the Court matters more than anything else Donald Trump could possibly do. Losing Scalia's seat would have meant a swift rewriting of the Constitution, starting with the wholesale elimination of the First and Second Amendments. I have repeatedly said, only half-jokingly, that if Trump gets this one thing right, I don't care if he spends the rest of his term fornicating with a goat on national TV.
The Court shouldn't be everything. But in our precarious national situation, the Court is everything. Trump kept his promise. He may get to keep it several more times. And Gorsuch will have an immediate impact, on some very big decisions.
I would be horribly remiss not to take this moment to publicly thank Mitch McConnell and Chuck Grassley, something I'm not exactly prone to doing.
Very few believed that McConnell and Grassley would be able to stand against the pressure to hold hearings on, and ultimately confirm, Obama's Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland 14 months ago. But they did. Even when they believed we were going to lose the election, they stood strong, kept hope alive and demanded that the people get to decide the composition of the Court.
But for McConnell and Grassley, Garland would be seated, Hillary would be President, and America as we know it would be gone.
Then, last week, when Chuck U. Schumer committed the enormous blunder of organizing a filibuster against Gorsuch's confirmation, whereupon McConnell led the Republicans to "nuke the filibuster", or at least the 60-vote rule with regard to Supreme Court nominations.
It's important to understand that distinction. The 60-vote rule is not the filibuster, which remains perfectly intact. And even there, the filibuster is not in the Constitution: it's old, yes, but it's just a Senate rule, not "part of the Founders' vision" as some pretend. Neither the 60-vote rule nor the filibuster is a "principle" on which anyone needs to stand. The Democrats invented the 60-vote rule for their own purposes while we were out of power, and they subverted it in 2013 when it suited their purposes to do so.
In any case, it is no stretch to say that by their actions, these men saved the Republic. And for this reason, Mitch McConnell and Chuck Grassley, however improbably, are our RMR Heroes of the Week.
We keep hearing about an Administration in disarray, that can't get anything done. Reports of palace intrigue abound, Bannon is in the crosshairs again (perhaps for real, but how real was it in November?), and Trump is supposedly losing his base.
I'm not suggesting there's no trouble in paradise. New administrations have constant problems. I'm just recalling all these same stories being written about all of Trump's Republican (and even some of his Democrat) predecessors. The intensity is different: these guys really hate Trump. But the story is the same.
1. The U.S. economy added 263,000 new jobs in March. Small businesses led the way with over 200,000 of them. Unemployment hit 4.5%, the lowest level in a decade, before the Great Recession.
2. Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced the end of "catch and release", Obama's notoriously lawless immigration "enforcement" practice. Sessions further promised to bring stiff criminal charges against repeat illegal aliens and smugglers.
4. Trump's State Department defunded the evil UN Population Fund, which promotes abortions around the world and forced abortions in China. UNFPA, of course, is a sacred cow to Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, who never saw a dead baby they didn't like (because we're overpopulating the planet or something).
5. Better still, Trump signed into law an act allowing states to defund Planned Parenthood, which provides precisely zero mammograms and little if any prenatal care but makes a quarter billion each year as an abortuary and provider of babies' body parts, while receiving half a billion dollars in taxpayer funding.
Now ignore all the awful things I just mentioned except the first one: how unconsitutional can you get, to force states to give taxpayer money to a private group, no matter who they are? Did Obama force your state to give your church tax money? Your NRA chapter?
No, and he shouldn't have. But public funding of leftist groups like Planned Parenthood is how a small leftist minority steals from you to greatly magnify its reach and thus its numbers.
It has to stop. Trump, unlike most Republicans, gets it.
6. Also under #DrainTheSwamp: Ben Carson just uncovered over $500 BILLION in Obama-era "accounting errors" at the Department of Housing and Urban Development, another taxpayer-funded leftist slush fund.
I guess this means brilliant brain surgeons are qualified to run government agencies after all.
7. Donald Trump demoted the ABA, taking away their heretofore special privileges regarding the vetting of judicial appointments. This is a big step: the liberal lawyers guild has been improperly influencing judicial picks for decades. Trump, as we've repeatedly noted, prefers the solidly conservative Federalist Society and Heritage Foundation; but regardless, refuses to give deference to his enemies, as most Republican Presidents (even Reagan) have.
8. Health care is still very much on the table. So is tax reform (and yes, we know it's Tax Day: God knows reform is needed). Back in the day, Reagan would negotiate with the Democrats and get to a deal. Now the Democrats just want to "resist", and Trump has to negotiate with the RINOs. But still, he is, and this is far from over.
9. Fitch Ratings announced that, contrary to its earlier warnings, Trump isn't a threat to the world economy after all. Similar updates are expected regarding Brexit, and possibly even Ronald Reagan, as early as next decade.
10. Racial reconciliation took a big step forward in Ferguson, Missouri. My buddy (and former Reagan speechwriter) Joe Duggan reports.
This week, Elon Musk's Tesla Motors became America's largest automaker by market cap. It is an amazing achievement, and a ringing endorsement of a technology set to revolutionize both the auto and energy industries.
Critics pointed out that Tesla is still losing money. Somehow they conveniently forgot GM's recent semi-nationalization and bankruptcy.
Tesla is at the leading edge not only of the EV revolution but of the coming transformation which is self-driving cars. But it's not alone: yesterday, Apple received a permit to begin testing its own self-driving technology in three Lexus RX 450h luxury hybrid SUVs.
EV technology will ultimately make cars far safer, while diversifying the number and kind of energy sources available to power them, thus greatly decreasing the geopolitical importance of places like Venezuela, Saudi Arabia, Iran and Russia. Some conservative luddites fail to see this promise, purely because EV technology is seen as tree-hugger stuff. But they're wrong.
Self-driving tech is even bigger still. It will virtually eliminate car accidents (and moving violations, unfortunately: I will miss speeding). But it will also increase maximum safe speeds on the highway by more than double: 150 MPH dedicated lanes will shrink distance like nothing since the invention of the car itself, with all the socio-economic shifts that implies. Gone too will be the rubbernecking and lollygagging that snowball into traffic jams in the most densely populated areas.
It gets better. Imagine a business model somewhere between Netflix and Uber: we'll call it Carflix (and don't use that: it's mine). Most families own two or three cars, and they mostly sit idle all day. With Carflix, you'll be able to pay a small monthly fee, and there will always be a self-driving car available to deliver every family member exactly where they need to go, exactly when they need to get there.
Many families will be able to dispense with car ownership altogether, vastly increasing average family disposal income while improving both speed and efficiency.
That's coming. And just like the fullness of the automotive revolution was just around the corner in 1917 but didn't seem like it yet, this is already happening. And it will happen before you blink.
Last time, we devoted quite a bit of space to, well, space, specifically the real and vast significance of a different Elon Musk revolution: his successful reuse of a Falcon 9 booster.
Now comes news that the cost of this launch was about half of normal. This was the first, and note well, it was only the first stage. That means SpaceX put tons of effort and money into refurbishing and relaunching its rocket that presumably won't be needed once the bugs are worked out of the process.
For example, it will take a while to figure out what does and does not need refurbishment (and how much, and how often) after a flight. One part may need very minor repair one out of five times, but another may need extensive repair every time. You can't know till you've done this a while. So in the beginning you can't help but overspend. Plus, most of SpaceX's boosters are still new, and the upper stages are not yet recoverable.
But get a fleet of these going, work out the kinks, and costs are going to drop through the floor. This is what we talked about last week: a 214-fold cost reduction in space launches — and thus 214X increase in the amount of stuff (and people) that can be launched for the same money — over the next decade or so.
So we talked about that last time. Here's what we didn't talk about, and it goes hand in hand with the EV & self-driving car revolution I just described.
Why is Elon going to all the trouble to land his rockets on a tiny ship at sea, instead of on a great big landing pad at the Cape? And in fact, why did he go to all the trouble to build ships on which to land those rockets when he didn't have to?
Musk is not the sort of man who wastes money.
There's an answer. For all the very real transformation that's about to come from what Musk, Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson and others are doing in space, imagine this: a 25 minute trip from New York to London. Or a 45 minute trip from any spot on Earth, to any spot on Earth. Passengers and cargo.
Delos Harriman — the Robert A. Heinlein character who's the obvious inspiration for all of these guys — had just such a company, which used reusable rockets to largely replace airplanes all over the world (incidentally, in addition to this and to his space ventures, Harriman also owned a company that's remarkably similar to the hyperloop).
But back to the question. Why land on a drone ship off the coast? Noise restrictions: you can't be operating rockets out of LaGuardia.
So add in that hyperloop. Add in cheap, ubiquitous space travel (and manufacturing, and mining, and settlement). Add in 150 MPH self-driving cars.
Heinlein is happening before our eyes.
This is Easter weekend, during which we celebrate Christ's substitutionary atonement on the Cross and His resurrection, conquering death and Hell, witnessed alive by almost a thousand people, and after 40 days ascending to the right hand of God the Father where He reigns over all Creation.
The Son of God is God, and through Him and by Him were all things created. He is the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father but by Him. Every one of us has sinned and fallen short of His glory, but He has shown His great love for us in this: that while we were yet sinners, He died in our place. And as many as receive Him, to them He gives the right to become the Father's own children, not slaves, but daughters and sons.
I hope you will come to know and love my Savior. He has been far more than faithful in His dealings with me.
And if you are a skeptic as I once was, I encourage you also to go to your theater. Last weekend, Lee Strobel's biography was released in movie form as The Case for Christ. It is excellent (Movieguide review here). A Yale lawyer and an award-winning investigative journalist for the Chicago Tribune, Strobel was an atheist who set out to disprove the resurrection.
Instead, he more-or-less proved it. And very much despite himself, he became a Christian.
Go see The Case for Christ. You'll be impressed. And take friends.
Happy Easter. Christ is risen indeed.

Dr. Carter G. Woodson Lyceum's 2020 poster contest underway
Phuong Anh Do, Reporter|October 8, 2019
To promote Black History Month, the Dr. Carter G. Woodson Lyceum's 2020 poster competition is now open to students from all ages and majors to help students learn more about black history while being creative, according to a Marshall University professor.
"We're looking for ways to promote the study of black history with students learning by doing," said Burnis Morris, professor of journalism and mass communications and director of the Dr. Carter G. Woodson Lyceum. "When they compete in this contest, they will learn more than they thought they would learn about black history."
This is the fourth time the competition has been organized and the theme of the year is "African Americans and the Vote." There are two separate competitions, one for the K-12 level and one for Marshall students.
For Marshall students, the competition is open to candidates from all majors, according to Sandra Reed, chair of the poster contest and professor in the School of Art and Design. The deadline for Marshall students to submit their entries is 4 p.m. Monday, Dec. 2.
"Usually, we have about 15 entries," Reed said. "Most of those come from one or two art classes that the individual professor guided their students to do the project, but it's open to any students at Marshall, regardless their majors or area."
For the K-12 contest, students can either draw or make a digital poster, and they will compete with others in their age group such as elementary, middle or high school. The winner will receive a prize of $100 for each elementary, middle and high school level. The deadline is 5 p.m. Monday, Oct. 28 for K-12 students.
Reed said she loves the jury process where they decide which one will be the winner as it shows the enthusiasm of students with lots of interesting ideas.
An informational meeting and brainstorming session is set for students at 3:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 10 in the fourth floor flex space of the Visual Arts Center.
"In that session, we will be showing students examples, talking about the theme, setting out expectations and getting them started," Reed said.
The overall winning poster will receive a $200 prize and will become the official 2020 Black History Poster for the Dr. Carter G. Woodson Lyceum. Students who want to find more information or submit entries may contact Reed at [email protected]

Toma Tomov from the Bulgarian Socialist Party (BSP) warns that the current situation in the U.S.A and their attitude towards Russia may lead to a new Cold War. According to him, the American President Donald Trump has been put in a tight spot and there are a lot of voices rising against him. Many people demand his impeachment, but whether they succeed or fail will become apparent later in the year, around November. The other side of the problem is much more terrifying, as the claims of Trump's ties to Russia have stirred a lot of distrust and aggression towards Russia and the Russian President Vladimir Putin. Tomov said that if the situation does not settle, soon we may witness a new Cold War.
Toma Tomov also discussed the topic of the Istanbul Convention. According to him, the convention has 30 pages of beautiful text and over 70 pages of explanatory notes which are pure horror. He supports the proposed referendum on the Istanbul Convention as the opinions and feelings of the Bulgarian people are far more important than the opinion of the Party of European Socialists. Earlier this month, the PES condemned BSP's standpoint on the Istanbul Convention, as for the PES full support towards the convention is the right thing to do.

How Did Kristin Cavallari's Brother Die? It's Really None Of Our Business
by Jessica Blankenship
Well, this is an incredibly sad ending to an already-upsetting story: Laguna Beach and Hills star Kristin Cavallari's brother Michael was found dead Thursday. He had been missing since Monday. As much as it makes sense and feels completely normal to want to know something like how Kristin Cavallari's brother died, the important thing to remember is that we really aren't entitled to know private details about any famous person, which is something that can be all too easy for forget when we're so used to knowing so much about them as it is.
And aside from the fact that it's not really any of our business how Michael Cavallari died, we don't really know yet anyway. Here's what we do know: Michael's car, a Honda Civic, was originally found abandoned back on Nov. 27 — just one day after Thanksgiving — on the I-70 in Utah. Sheriff Steven White of the Grand County Sheriff's Office told Today that they did not suspect any signs of foul play associated with the disappearance, which is a position that, as of Thursday afternoon, remained unchanged in any official capacity.
Although his body was found on Thursday, no additional details surrounding the cause of death have been released.
Kristin gave a statement to E! news:
We want to thank everyone for their love, support and prayers during this very difficult time... We have just been informed by the authorities my brother's body has been found. This is a very painful time and we are still processing it all. We kindly ask everyone please respect our privacy during our time of grieving.
Kristin and husband Jay Cutler recently welcomed a new baby girl, their third child. Kristin shared an Instagram photo of herself with her brother as kids just a few days ago:
Her caption read:
I appreciate all the concern, thoughts, and prayers that have been extended to me and my family. We remain hopeful and I will share any news that we receive. I have such gratitude for all those that have shared their support.

Room 138; Tel. (22) 657 27 06
Members of the Team:
PhD Grzegorz Wołowiec (Team Leader) – Wednesdays 12:00 p.m.-2:00 p.m.
Professor Michał Głowiński (Professor Emeritus)
Associate Professor Anna Sobieska – Wednesdays 12:00 p.m.-2:00 p.m.
PhD Agnieszka Mrozik – Wednesdays 12:00 p.m.-2:00 p.m.
Associate Professor Krzysztof Gajewski – Wednesdays 12:00 p.m.-2:00 p.m.
About the Team:
The team began its activities in 2004 on Professor Michał Głowiński's own initiative. He was its leader until 2007. Our joint work takes into account internal differentiation and we wish to overcome excessively specialized divisions in literary studies and to develop a new language. This assumption has been verified in practice, as evidenced by the rich and versatile scholarly activities of the team members. Our interests and objectives can generally be defined by the following disciplines: literary sociology (Dr. Grzegorz Wołowiec), drama theory and interpretation (Prof. Jacek Kopciński), comparative literature (Dr. Anna Sobieska), Holocaust literature (Dr. Dorota Krawczyńska), the history of literary theory, particularly the movement called the New Criticism (Dr. Krzysztof Gajewski), autobiography and the studies of the literary narrator crisis (Dr. Katarzyna Chmielewska), feminist criticism (Dr. Agnieszka Mrozik).
In most cases, the subject of our inquiry comprises literature and culture of the twentieth century. Publications by the team members refer to problems connected with the interests mentioned above. Among the published works, there are extensive monographs and collections of studies, conference papers, chapters in edited volumes and articles in the leading Polish scholarly journals, as well as various shorter essays and book reviews. Also, one needs to mention publications addressed to the general public, like the textbook of twentieth-century Polish literature.
The team members conduct extensive educational activities, which include teaching associated with the Institute, namely with its Doctoral Program, graduate schools, and its partner – the Academy of the Humanities. In addition, our team's scholars have distinguished themselves as lecturers affiliated with Warsaw's two universities: the University of Warsaw and Cardinal Stefan Wyszynski University. The team meetings are attended by scholars, acting sometimes as speakers, who are not part of the team.

Wales plans press archive
The National Library of Wales has won £2m to create a national press archive
It is planning to digitise 2m pages of newspapers and magazines published in Wales and dating back to the 18th century for a website named Welsh Newspapers and Magazines Online.
The money will come from the Welsh Assembly Government's Strategic Capital Investment Fund.
The website will provide an online archive open to educational institutions and the public. The Welsh Assembly Government said this will help to address the shortage of online learning materials relating to the culture, history and identity of Wales and will create the largest body of Welsh language material yet published online.
The project is expected to be completed and available online by 2012.
Heritage minister Alun Ffred Jones said: "Newspapers and magazines are a treasure trove of first hand accounts of historic events and often forgotten information about the way we have lived, the food we ate, the books we read and how we felt about politics, religion and family life.
"Whether you are a school pupil looking for information for a homework project or a family historian researching the lives of your ancestors, this resource will offer a unique insight into the social and cultural history of Wales.
Andrew Green, national librarian, said: "We are delighted with this announcement, which will take us a step closer to the Library's ambitious vision to digitise the entire printed memory of Wales and ensure audiences across Wales and around the world can enjoy the mines of information held in the Library's collection."
He added that it will be build on work already done by The National Library in digitising newspapers.

We all know that models on the catwalk don't look like the rest of us. But perhaps we're entitled to expect a little bit more realism from the photos in adverts?
It's no secret that in the world of fashion the retouching of photos does happen, but it's controversial, and no-one wants to broadcast the fact that they do it.
So, back in the real world, there's a much less controversial – and more effective – way of slim-lining your figure – liposuction.
Here at Aesthetics of Essex we use BodyTite, a revolutionary anti-ageing, skin tightening device which produces results similar to – but even better than – traditional liposuction. It uses Radio-Frequency Assisted Liposuction (REAL) energy to generate focused energy into fatty tissue in selected areas of your body. BodyTite minimises post-procedure pain, swelling and discomfort and produces a more attractive body contour. The process achieves both fat reduction and body-firming at the same time!

The Student Voice of the Hill
Spring brings new expectations, hopes, and experiences
The 2009 spring season for the women's lacrosse team holds many upcoming challenges, goals, hard work and the hope for success. The young team is coached by Courtney Tamasitis. It will be her second season for the Griffins. This year the girls are assisted by Lauren Stone, a 2006 graduate of Stonehill College; Stone will help the team reach their goals by bringing her knowledge of the game to Seton Hill University's (SHU) field.
By Anne Williams
The SHU women's lacrosse team is young, but growing. The Griffins have 12 returning upperclassman and three freshman. The four seniors include Audrey Vivirito, Ellen Einsporn, Amanda Clontz, and Jillian Kowalewski. The team also recognizes the 2009 captains: Desiree Palmieri, Elyse Branam, juniors and Einsporn.
The team is excited and anxious for the upcoming season. The women trained during the fall of the school year and continued throughout the winter months to get into shape. Their first taste of experience came from a scrimmage that they played during pre-season. "We did okay in the scrimmage and we saw what we needed to work on in these next three weeks before we start our season," Tomasitis said.
Now the team looks to their first regulation match as official NCAA Division II conference members, on Friday, February 27 with an away game at Bloomsburg University starting at 4:00 p.m.
Since becoming official Division II athletes, The Griffins will have a tough schedule, competing with schools like Regis, Mercyhurst, Shippensburg, St. Andrews and Bloomsburg. Despite the challenges ahead, the team is taking them head on with determination.
Many of the team members have high hopes for the start of the games. Sophomore Stephanie Lazzaro said, "[I] think we will do great things together and we will be able to win a great deal of games as long as we work together."
Palmieri said, "I'm excited to come into this season with coach having been with us this past year and taking all the things she has taught us and putting it all out on the field."
An important goal the team strives for is utilizing their skills and playing with heart. The 2008 season was a building year for many of the players and they have come a long way. After a record of 4-13 last season, Tamasitis would like to see better results this year. "We need to always work on our stick skills and work on our consistency and patience during a game."
The team's improvement will bring them closer to another goal of making it to the East Coast Conference sometime in the near future. Branam, as a captain, has high expectations of her team and her teammates. "We are a much stronger team this year. One thing [people] will see when attending our games is the heart and effort that we have. We are going to be intense this season," she said.
With a solid defense and a new intensity from the players, SHU can expect great things from the women's lacrosse team this spring. Support the girls at their first home game on March 1 at noon, where they will play Holy Family.
