Biografia
Charles W. Morris nacque il 23 maggio 1901, figlio di Charles e Laura Campbell Morris. Dopo aver frequentato brevemente l'University of Wisconsin, Morris frequentò i corsi di Ingegneria e Psicologia presso la Northwestern University dove si laureò nel 1922. Alla fine dello stesso anno si iscrisse presso l'Università di Chicago per conseguire un dottorato in filosofia sotto la guida di George Herbert Mead, pragmatista e fondatore della psicologia sociale. Morris completò il dottorato nel 1925 discutendo una tesi sulla teoria simbolica della mente.

Insegnò tra il 1925 e il 1931 alla Rice University, tra il 1931 e il 1958 a Chicago e infine all'Università della Florida. Ha presieduto la Western Division dell'American Philosophical Association ed è stato membro dell'American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

Durante gli anni trenta Morris aiutò alcuni filosofi tedeschi e austriaci immigrati negli Stati Uniti, in particolare Rudolf Carnap, del quale è stato collega dal 1936 al 1952. Si è impegnato nel movimento Unity of Science ed è stato editore associato dell'International Encyclopedia of Unified Science.

Tra i suoi impegni preferiti vanno segnalate le sue passioni per la poesia, la musica, la pittura, la danza e le filosofie e spiritualità orientali.

Pensiero e opere
Si è occupato di psicologia sociale ed in questo ambito si è messo in evidenza con una indagine sociale da lui condotta e pubblicata nel 1956 riguardante le modalità e le preferenze di vita di un gruppo di studenti, preso come campione, dislocati in varie nazioni. Tra le conclusioni dello studio vi è stata la convinzione che esistano elementi comuni a tutte le civiltà che costituiscono un patrimonio collettivo condiviso.

Negli anni venti ha approfondito le opere di Bertrand Russell, Charles S. Peirce, Ernst Cassirer. Ebbe occasione di incontrare e conoscere noti linguisti, tra i quali Leonard Bloomfield, Roman Jakobson.

Vicino agli ambienti del Circolo di Vienna e al suo positivismo logico, ha sviluppato un'originale forma di pragmatismo.

Approccio concettuale
L'approccio di Morris alla semiotica divide il soggetto in sintassi, che si occupa della combinazione dei segni, semantica che tratta il significato dei segni e pragmatica che riguarda l'origine, l'uso e gli effetti dei segni. Morris propone la tripartizione di un segno in veicolo segnico, designatum e interpretante; questa tricotomia appare inizialmente nel suo libro "Lineamenti di una teoria dei segni".
Il fulcro dello studio di Morris, più che il segno, è il comportamento "segnico" dell'uomo. Nell'opera Signs, language and behavior del 1946 Morris propone infatti una definizione di segno in termini comportamentali come di uno stimolo che agisce sul comportamento nello stesso modo di un altro stimolo. Su questa basa propone una classificazione degli stimoli sulla base del tipo di effetto che hanno sul comportamento (denotativo, valutativo, esortativo).
Tale analisi non è limitata ai segni linguistici ma ha una valenza generale.
Morris si soffermò sulle caratteristiche, sulle categorie, sulle determinazioni del linguaggio oltreché sulla necessità di rifondare la filosofia.
Ebbe un ruolo attivo nel far conoscere negli anni trenta il Positivismo logico europeo negli Stati Uniti.

Hollow Hand is a very little known band or solo artist, there is a really is not a lot of information about him or them, who ever they are. It's the fine art of mystique that so many seem to have forgotten about and it is at times mystique that makes us really listen.
All that I know is that this outfit come from London and that is all. Chariot is their first out put, it offers a taster for what might be coming our way from Hollow Hand. Its fair to say that from listening to this you would be forgiven in thinking that they had just walked out of the late 60's and early 70's. Drawing on the hazy 3 part harmonies of Crosby, Stills and Nash and the stripped back lyrics that have the earthly feel of Jethro Tull.
There is almost Grenwich Village movement filling the melodies with subtle guitar picking and strumming. There are many layers that really build in the melodies, and its the fine art of subtleties meaning that no parts really sound the same, although there is a flowing feeling happening in the melody. Even the subtle use of pipes feel really well placed and prick my ears. It feels like as if Hollow Hand might pip both Fleet Foxes and Midlake in capturing the hazy feeling without really forcing it.
I look forward to seeing what becomes of Hollow Hand.

Kitchen pendant lighting has to serve several purposes: it has to be functional and practical for working in the kitchen, and it also has to be easy to maintain and keep clean. You will need bright, effective lighting above any workspace in the kitchen, and if the kitchen also has a dining area, you will probably want more ambient lighting above the dining table.
When choosing kitchen pendant lights to be placed above a work space, think about the practicality of the light. You need a bright, focused light to be able to provide enough light as you prepare food or wash the dishes. Bright light bulbs are necessary above worktops. When installing kitchen lights to be used as task lighting above a work space, you can usually place the light lower than you would in an area that needs more ambient lighting.
When selecting a kitchen light for a dining table, you can be a little more creative and go for decorative lights. Lights that are used to create a mood or an atmosphere are called ambient lights and they come in a wide variety of designs and styles. A single pendant, or several pendants that have been grouped together, can look very good. When installing the pendants, you can place the slightly higher than the lights above a workspace. Make sure the light does not point into anyone's eyes as people sit around the table and remember that children sit at a different height to grown ups.
 Pendant lights also work well above breakfast bars and counters. For apartments that come with small kitchens and only have a counter or a breakfast bar for eating, a well selected pendant lighting arrangement can create an atmosphere but also provide adequate task lighting.
Another important aspect is the material the shade is made of. Glass shades are generally the most beautiful and perfect for a dining area. For countertops and above the kitchen sink, acrylic can be a more convenient choice. It does not break as easily as glass, it is easy to wipe clean, and some types of acrylic can even look almost like real glass when the light is switched on. Metal shades are also popular and can look very good in a contemporary kitchen or a bar kitchen.
With such a range of styles, materials, and colors, it is easy to find the right lighting option for all kitchens.

CNN drops lawsuit against Donald Trump after White House restores journalist Jim Acosta's press pass in full
By Freddy Mayhew Twitter
CNN has dropped its lawsuit against President Donald Trump after the White House agreed to "fully" restore journalist Jim Acosta's press pass.
The US news network said in a tweet yesterday that it was "no longer necessary" for it to pursue the legal claim.

CNN had argued the decision to remove its correspondent's pass had breached the First Amendment (on freedom of the press) and Fifth Amendment (on due process) of the US Bill of Rights.
A judge ordered the White House to return the pass to Acosta last week in upholding CNN's application for a temporary restraining order.
Today the @WhiteHouse fully restored @Acosta's press pass. As a result, our lawsuit is no longer necessary. We look forward to continuing to cover the White House.
— CNN Communications (@CNNPR) November 19, 2018
The removal of Acosta's pass hinged on a White House claim that he put his hands on a staffer when she attempted to take the microphone from him during a televised press conference with Trump on 7 November.
White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders shared a video that claimed to show Acosta chopping at the woman's arm. Trump was forced to deny claims the video had been doctored to emphasise the claim.
Both CNN and Acosta said it was a lie that he had manhandled the staffer.
In a letter sent to the network confirming the return of Acosta's press pass, the White House laid out four rules for future press conferences.
These comprise limiting press to one question before yielding the floor to other journalists, with follow-up questions to be permitted "at the discretion of the president or other White House officials taking questions".
According to ABC News, yielding the floor is defined as "physically surrendering" the microphone. Any "failure to abide" by the rules may result in "suspension or revocation of the journalist's hard pass".
The White House letter said: "Should you refuse to follow these rules in the future, we will take action in accordance with the rules set forth above. The President is aware of this decision and concurs."
According to CNN, the White House press corps has not agreed to the new rules, but it said Trump "rarely holds press conferences".
The White House Correspondents' Association said yesterday it had "no role in crafting" the White House letter.

Auwahi Wind Farm Now Operational
December 27, 2012, 8:57 AM HST · Updated December 28, 6:30 AM
Auwahi Wind Project map, courtesy State DOH.
Sempra US Gas & Power and BP Wind Energy today announced the full commercial operation of the 21 megawatt Auwahi Wind facility.
The power project includes eight new wind turbines located on the southeast ridge of Haleakala.
"BP and Sempra US Gas & Power have been terrific partners," said Sumner Erdman, president of Ulupalakua Ranch, in a written statement. "The Auwahi project protects the environment, maximizes wind as a renewable energy resource and allows us to maintain the rural open space and grazing areas necessary for us to raise our cattle."
"We are very pleased to complete construction of Auwahi Wind both on time and on budget," said Jeffrey W. Martin, president and chief executive officer of Sempra US Gas & Power.
"The addition of new, clean energy from our project will be a boost for Maui's infrastructure and will help Hawaii achieve its goal of securing 40% of its energy from renewable sources by 2030. This project could not have been built without the enthusiastic support of the local community, the Ulupalakua Ranch and neighbors who recognize the importance of sustainable

The power from Auwahi Wind has been sold to Maui Electric Company (MECO) under a 20-year contract. The turbines will generate enough clean electricity to power about 10,000 typical Maui homes.
An important component of the project is a 10 MW battery capable of storing 4.4 megawatt-hours of power. Energy from the battery will help regulate and sustain power to the MECO grid during light wind conditions.

Construction of the wind farm on Ulupalakua Ranch began in March 2012, and involved more than 180 workers. Auwahi Wind will employ four full-time employees.
"It was just seven months ago that the groundbreaking for Auwahi Wind was held and today we're celebrating its completion," said Brian Schatz, US Senate appointee for Hawaii.
"This project is an important step toward energy self-sufficiency and has the added benefit of helping Ulupalakua remain financially viable and preserve a ranching lifestyle on Maui and protect open space and habitat for native plants and animals."

Гульбика Галеевна Каримова (; род. 1938) — советская работница сельского хозяйства, доярка, Герой Социалистического Труда.

Биография
Родилась 15 сентября 1938 года в поселке Узяк Тюлячинского района Татарской АССР.

После окончания семи классов школы стала работать на молочнотоварной ферме родного хозяйства. Труд был нелегким, так как многое приходилось делать вручную. Но с началом 1960-х годов на ферму пришла механизация и автоматизация, соответственно почти вдвое увеличилось число коров в группе, обслуживаемой Гульбикой Каримовой. Росли надои в её стаде и в 1965 году за перевыполнение соцобязательств ей был вручен орден Ленина.

В 1968 году Каримова взяла обязательство получить от каждой коровы не менее  молока и сдержала его, завоевав звание «Лучшая доярка района». В этом же году она довела надои от каждой коровы до  что было в два раза выше среднерайонного показателя — теперь ей присвоили звание «Лучшая доярка Татарской АССР». За выполнение планов VIII пятилетки Гульбика Галеевна была занесена в Республиканскую книгу Почета. Неоднократно Каримова была участницей ВДНХ СССР и награждалась медалями.

Была членом КПСС, избиралась делегатом XXV съезда КПСС, занималась общественной деятельностью. До 1993 года работала дояркой ОПХ имени В. И. Ленина Тюлячинского района, затем вышла на пенсию. С днями рождения её постоянно поздравляет руководство района.

Награды
 6 апреля 1971 года Г. Г. Каримовой было присвоено звание Героя Социалистического Труда с вручением ордена Ленина.
 Также была награждена вторым орденом Ленина и медалями.
 Лауреат Государственной премии СССР (1982, за увеличение производства высококачественной продукции животноводства, применение прогрессивных технологий и повышение производительности труда).

Desmond Brooks
Desmond Brooks Architect
Renowned international architect Desmond Brooks has become the 11th person inducted into the Gold Coast Business Hall of Fame.
Mr Brooks and the company he founded were behind the designs of some of the Gold Coast's most amazing landmarks. They include Sheraton Marina Mirage, Palazzo Versace, Royal Pines Resort, Marriott Surfers Paradise Resort, Gold Coast International Hotel, The Wave, Soul, Ultra, Jewel, Verve, and Sierra Grand.
More than 640 Gold Coast business people were on hand at the Gold Coast Business Excellence Awards' gala function at The Star Gold Coast.
Born in Melbourne in 1931, Mr Brooks received his big break in Hollywood while embarking on an extended honeymoon with wife,Pauline, after finishing his architecture degree.
Mr Brooks and two friends won a contract to review movie studio 20th Century Fox's landholdings. That contract then rolled into another contract to design a masterplan for a part of Los Angeles that is now known as Century City.
This led to an opportunity to join an architecture firm that specialised in designing high-rise casinos.
Mr Brooks said that provided him with the chance to design three casinos on the Las Vegas strip including the Sahara.
"Most of the clients at this stage all wore long black overcoats, as did all 'Las Vegas developers' and all the payments were in cash,'' he said.
One client who did not wear an overcoat was business magnate Howard Hughes, who later became renowned for his reclusive behaviour. Mr Brooks designed The International in Las Vegas for Mr Hughes.
In 1961, he moved to Hawaii where he set up his own architecture firm and designed numerous tourist, commercial and housing projects.
In the early 1980s Queensland coal baron and industrialist Sir Leslie Thiess visited Hawaii and urged the architect to return to Australia to design the Sheraton Breakwater Casino in Townsville.
Mr Brooks agreed and set up shop on the Gold Coast. Within four months of his return to Australia in 1982 our hero's business had 40 employees.
In August 1989, Mr Brooks won an international competition to redesign the Expo 88 site in Brisbane. That site is now called South Bank.
He also teamed up with developer David Mariner to save Melbourne's historic Regent Theatre and built the adjacent Westin Hotel. He also reviewed the final plans for Melbourne's Crown Casino.
Mr Brooks' projects in other parts of Australia included Sheraton Mirage Port Douglas, Palm Cove, Lizard Island and Heron Island.
In 2008, Desmond sold his business to his employees with the intention of retiring. However, several years ago he started a new firm, called Desmond Brooks Architects.While he considers himself semi-retired, his business is working on projects in Indonesia, Western Australia and China. His team is also designing plans to revitalise a $4 billion, 140-hecture, 700-room resort on the slopes of Mount Fuji in Japan.
In summing up his career, Desmond says the secret of his success is to simply: "Just have fun. You have to want to come into work. If it's not fun, don't do it."

Hydrogen homes trial could be start of green revolution
Emily Gosden, Energy Editor
SGN, the gas network company, has been awarded £18 million funding from Ofgem and £7 million from the Scottish government to run the trial
Hundreds of homes in Scotland will become the first in the world to have their heating and cooking needs met by pure hydrogen after a £28 million trial won funding from the energy regulator.
Customers in 300 properties in the Levenmouth area of Fife will have hydrogen-burning boilers and cookers installed free and be connected to a new pipeline network supplying them with 100 per cent "green" hydrogen.
The gas will be produced through electrolysis, which will use electricity from a wind turbine to split water into hydrogen and oxygen.
The first homes are expected to be connected in 2022, with the trial running for four and a half years initially.
The trial is being run by SGN, the gas network company, which has been

Zhilei has one of the transformational stories to tell about his path to MBA – a story of relentless determination, hard work and sacrifice to achieve his goals. Having born in Suwan, a small town in Anhui Province of China – he got into the elite Fudan medical school, Shanghai. As he pursued his medical course, he parallelly enrolled himself to a second bachelor's degree in economics and completed it successfully.
After completing his post-graduation in Medicine, he became a successful neurosurgeon (a speciality that is highly competitive amongst the doctors in china) in a top hospital and has performed thousands of critical surgeries. Following that, he moved to a corporate career raising through the ranks quickly and now finally pursues his MBA from CEIBS and is set to graduate in 2016.
Oh wait, on top of CEIBS MBA, he is additionally pursuing a Master's in Public Health in USA. Read his full story below (covered in 2 parts).
What are your childhood factors that prompted you to become a doctor, especially a neurosurgeon?
Every kid has a dream. My dream kick started during my highschool days when my Grandfather and Grandmother died from stroke and cancer. At that time, the medical services in rural china weren't that good. I realized that if I could become a doctor, I can save many patients who otherwise will not get proper care.
Neurosurgery is one of the top areas where medical students specialize. The standards are quite high to get into. But, I was fortunate to get into it due to my academic credentials and interest to perform surgery.
When you were studying for Medicine you also pursued a degree in Economics in parallel. Why?
I grew up in a small town. However, I was studying for medicine at Shanghai which was the leading city in China's growth. I was very interested to know how the economic and business worlds operate and felt studying Economics will help me to understand them both.
From my medical school in Fudan University, only 2 students chose to study a second major apart from medicine and I was one of the two. It was a difficult choice because it cost me 2 hours on the road every time just to get to the other campus. In spite of this and my regular medical course, it wasn't that difficult for me since I chose to study Economics based on my interest.
I knew that studying two majors at the same time will be demanding but, wanted to give it a try. It exposed me to various subjects and has widened my knowledge.
What is your motivation in moving from a neurosurgeon to corporate role?
Huashan hospital is one of the top hospitals in China. They have a reputed neurology department and again was very fortunate to be a neurosurgeon in the neuroscience department.
I operated and treated many patients with critical conditions. I discovered that my personal interest was more towards operating and not carrying out research as the situations were leading me into. While the surgeon role was good, it was very demanding as I had to perform several surgeries as well as attend to a large volume of patients every day. Many of my classmates from Economics were into successful corporate careers with a good work-life balance and it was a pull.
Hence, I was open to move into the business world leveraging my qualification as a doctor and neurosurgeon. The choice to make the transition was very difficult as my parents, friends and family were against quitting my surgeon role. But, I had to listen to my inner voice deep down and make the move. I felt, this would be good for my future career. Hence, I decided to resign from my surgeon role and move into a corporate career.
You worked for different pharmaceutical companies with quick growth. What did you learn?
I joined Novartis on an entry level role. It was difficult for me to give up a prestigious role as a neurosurgeon in a top hospital and start at such a level. But, I knew deep in my heart that if I wanted to build a corporate career, I need to undergo this change since I did not have corporate work experience before.
I was okay with this as I believed that my neurosurgeon work experience would accelerate my growth in the corporate world. After several years, this proved true. The work experience helped me to understand the dynamics and expectations of working in multinational companies.
Why did you want to do an MBA? Couldn't you have waited to gain more work experience?
One of my classmates from my medical school chose to start his career in the consulting world without practising medicine. After 3 years of work experience, he decided to pursue his MBA. He suggested that if I want to accelerate my career in the corporate world, an MBA is a good way to do that. That's true and it holds good.
When I accumulated 3 years of work experience in the corporate world, which is usually the minimum required by top business schools, I decided it was time to do an MBA. I believe MBA will help me to achieve a quick career growth and hence decided to enrol.
Why CEIBS? You could have done in Europe/North America?
There were several reasons to choose China and CEIBS over others.
Tell us about CEIBS – the class, classmates, faculty, social life etc.
My classmates are quite diverse as we would see in any world class business school. They come from finance, consulting and various other industries. We also have international students from USA, Europe, Latin America and Asia represented in the class.
About half of our professors are Chinese but, have studied and worked in top business schools around the world and the other half of professors come to CEIBS from all over the world to deliver lectures. So, we have good diversity and global perspectives. There are exchange programs and students events. So you have the possibility for a lot of interactions.
CEIBS also attracts high profile speakers from across the globe and in June 2015, Reid Hoffmann and Peter Thiel delivered a master class that was an inspiring event.
Social life & Network – I joined different clubs and attended different events. CEIBS organizes a lot of networking events along with EMBA and Chinese business community and I do participate in all these events.
What was your favourite part of CEIBS so far?
My favourite part of the CEIBS MBA was when I organized the Health care entrepreneurship conference event in the very first month of the course. It was attended by several experts in the business, medical and policy making circles. Through this event, I developed a very good relationship with the CEIBS healthcare alumni and industry leaders as well as how to communicate with them. I also learnt how to proactively develop relationship and network with industry leaders.
For MBA's the most important thing is network – both for your job search as well as career. Earlier, I did not know how to network. But through this event and later, I developed my networking skills and practiced it.
Graduating from an MBA itself is stretching, why do you simultaneously pursue a Master of Public Health in a totally different continent? How do you manage to do both?
Currently, I am also studying for a Master of Public Health in Johns Hopkins University, USA as it has a global reputation. I decided to do this course after enrolling on my MBA. I am interested in healthcare leadership, management and administration and see it as directly related to my career interests and this will prepare me well. I also wanted to have overseas healthcare exposure.
The first year of the MBA is always intense and I finished all my core courses. This helps me to focus on the other course. However, my aim is to finish both these courses successfully. It is not difficult for me.


I could use a nap right about now! Happy WW!
You all are making me sleeeeeepy!
makes me want to nap!
Oh my. Let's just hope that there wasn't any beans in your super. Gas attack!
Yawn! You're making me sleepy!
Wow - those pictures sure make us sleepy.


With so much remaining unknown, at this stage the impact of Brexit on the high value goods supply chain can only be guesstimated. As an EU member state, the UK has long enjoyed free trade with its European counterparts, bringing benefits such as zero Customs Duty on products received from or dispatched to fellow European Union (EU) states, as well as minimal red tape.
If a customer pays a premium price for a premium product – anything from the latest games console or mobile phone to a designer handbag or top-of-the-range fridge freezer – they naturally expect the very best: a quality product, delivered on time, in prime condition, no excuses. If they decide your product isn't quite right for them – or they've ordered the wrong model, colour or size – they also expect a quick and hassle-free returns or exchange process. In short, if you're dealing in valuable goods, every aspect of the high value goods supply chain needs to run like clockwork to ensure customers are happy and your reputation for excellence remains intact.
To enable you to meet your customers' high expectations, outsourcing your warehousing and distribution services to an experienced third-party logistics (3PL) for high value goods like Yusen Logistics can pay huge dividends. Our networks, infrastructure, experience and supply chain management expertise will protect and enhance your high value cargo and add substantial value to your operations.
Creating an energy-efficient supply chain is only possible if you understand its overall carbon footprint. Certainly, there are huge opportunities within the industrial supply chain for reductions in CO2 emissions – particularly on the 'Final Mile' - to meet stringent regulations and streamline costs. A 3PL or 4PL partner who is committed to researching and developing green innovation is best placed to find long-term solutions across the entire supply chain. Recent research into smart tracking and accurate reporting undertaken by Yusen clearly indicates that it is possible to improve the sustainability of supply chain solutions of any complexity.
Ben drives forward stronger LEAN improvement and continuous development as part of Yusen's commitment to a Kaizen culture. With a decade of experience across the logistics industry, Ben works to develop cost-effective solutions by promoting global best practice through training, monitoring and reporting. Robust processes, warehouse flow, manpower planning and advanced forecasting are all streamlined as Ben helps Yusen to discover innovation ahead of the market. With the launch of a new productivity tool, Ben is a proud advocate of transparent and cost-effective solutions for supply chain management.
Transparency is key if you're looking for a 3PL partner that strives to hone their customer-centric logistics. From factory floor to end destination, our recent study found that having full sight of your supply chain will best serve your needs – and your customers'. Not only does a customer-centric ethos foster stronger relationships between you and your supplier, but it delivers cost-effective supply chain management and innovative solutions.
For the consumer electronics industry, in particular, trusting a 3PL partner to drive continuous improvement will help you tackle the pressures of short lead times in an increasingly competitive consumer landscape.


The American Black Elder or Elderberrry is a common shrub that inhabits bogs, swamps, marshes, bottomlands, along watercourses, and moist woods from Nova Scotia and southeast Canada, New England down through all of Florida to eastern Texas up through much of Oklahoma & Kansas & Nebraska, areas in the Dakotas into southern Manitoba. Stout, smooth, waxy twigs and stems with compound leaves of 5 to 11 leaflets, usually 7, and only a poor yellow-green fall color. Fragrant flat-topped flower clusters of 6 to 10 inches wide in June-July. Small globular purple-black berries in August-September loved by birds and small mammals and people; often made into jams, jellies, and wine. Fast growing, grows in heavy clay soils and yet tolerates heat and drought. Easy to transplant with shallow, fibrous root system, but it does ground sucker, at least in very moist soils. It is not a dirty, messy plant, but yet not real clean and neat, but it is a good shrub for landscapes. It is sold by large, diverse nurseries and native plant nurseries. I find a few planted in regular homeowner yards, but once again landscape designers and architects use it much more in professional conventional landscapes or in naturalistic landscapes.
The book, "How to Know the Wildflowers" (1922) by Mrs William Starr Dana gives us quite a bit of historical information about this plant. The author notes that the plant borders the lanes and streams and blooms in early summer. Later in the year, the plant produces dark berries from which "elderberry wine is brewed by the country people". The fine white wood is easily cut and used for pegs and skewers. She also claims a decoction of the leaves can protect delicate plants from caterpillars. Regarding the name, she says the "white pith can be easily removed from the stems, hence the old English name of bore-wood." She further explains that the name elder is probably derived from the Anglo-Saxon "aeld" meaning fire, and refers to the use of the hollow branches in "blowing up a fire".

Plan Your Giving > Individuals & Families > Donor Impact Stories > Legacy Matters
Lange family supports their passions long after their lifetime through CFT
W.W. Caruth, Jr. and Dr. Fred M. Lange
North Star Values: Legacy, Innovation, Compassion
One of the things that matters most to us in building a thriving community is growing community giving over the long term. CFT's Live Oak Society was established in 2018 to recognize individuals and families who have created a legacy with CFT through a planned gift in their will or estate to their donor-advised fund or to support CFT's discretionary grantmaking. To date, more than 70 individuals and couples have joined CFT's Live Oak Society.
We've had many generous fund holders give to CFT through their estate plans long before we created the Live Oak Society, including the late Dr. Fred M. Lange and Blanche Swanzy Lange. Fred was one of the founders of the Dallas Community Chest Trust Fund in 1953, which was CFT's original name. Fred served as the first executive director, and later served as chair of the board of CFT. Prior to joining the Trust Fund, he served as vice president of the Southwestern Medical Foundation and as a trustee of the Caruth Foundation. When he was in his 80s, he was credited for raising more than $500 million throughout the region during his lifetime.
Blanche and Fred traveled the world in the interest of finding ways to improve the medical conditions of children. During their lives, to help newborns needing intensive care and observation in Dallas, the couple made a gift from the Lange Fund of the Dallas Community Chest Trust Fund to Baylor University Medical Center, to establish the Blanche Swanzy Lange Special Care Newborn Nursery, which opened in 1975. It has since expanded into the Blanche Swanzy Lange Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
Through their estate plans, the Langes set up an endowment fund at CFT with three separate beneficiaries to ensure ongoing support of organizations they loved: The NICU at Baylor that bears Blanche's name, Carter BloodCare, and Dallas Baptist University, where Lange Hall is named after Fred. These organizations can request grants from the Lange Fund annually, and CFT does the due diligence to vet the requests. For years, their fund has been able to support state-of-the-art equipment and technology needs the Langes never could have anticipated during their lifetimes. Their dollars have helped support high-tech life-saving equipment for the Baylor NICU and for Carter BloodCare. CFT is honored to steward the legacy of the Langes long beyond their lifetimes in support of what mattered most to them during their lives.

A Passion for Education
Om & Shanti Funds at CFT provides scholarships and opportunities to students
For the Sethis, giving back is a family affair. Parvesh and Jeet Sethi have two charitable funds at CFT: the Om & Shanti Scholarship Fund and the Om & Shanti Fund, a donor-advised fund. Both their family fund and their scholarship fund are centered around providing educational opportunities for students.
A Passion for Community
Mary Anne Sammons Cree leaves legacy of giving through CFT's Live Oak Legacy Society
Mary Anne Sammons Cree had a passion for our North Texas community. She spent her life giving back in support of the causes that mattered most to her—the performing and visual arts, museums, education, and nature.
A Passion for the Arts
Cece Smith Lacy and Ford Lacy fund new works from arts organizations through their fund at CFT
As Cece Smith Lacy and Ford Lacy began their estate planning process, they came to Communities Foundation of Texas for assistance with their planned giving. During their research, they learned about donor-advised funds and decided to open the Cece Smith Lacy and John Ford Lacy Fund at CFT to support their giving during their lifetime.

Send Flowers for Robert
Robert W. Carter
October 17, 1943 ~ December 16, 2019 (age 76)
Robert W. Carter of Georgetown, MA, passed away on Monday, December 16, 2019.
Bob was born in Beverly, MA, on October 17, 1943 to A. Belman and Norma (nee Nutter) Carter, the youngest of their 3 children. Bob grew up in Topsfield and graduated from Masconomet Regional High School in 1961. He received a degree from Lowell Technical Institute in Civil Engineering.
Bob married his high school sweetheart, Nancy (nee Roberts) of Boxford, in 1964. They were married for 55 years and had 5 children, 7 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren.
Bob spent over 40 years working as a civil engineer ("just barely civil," as he would often say with a smile) for the Mass Highway Department. In 1978, Bob was made the District 5 (Essex County) Snow and Ice Engineer. Little did he know he would be learning about emergency snow and ice removal in a truly trial-by-fire situation during the record-setting Blizzard of '78! Later in his career, at a meeting in Boston about how to redirect traffic around a new construction site in a busy area of the state, there was much talk, but not much agreement, about what approach to take. In exasperation, Bob finally said, "Let's just put up a sign that says, 'Seek Alternate Route.'" And they did! That phrase has become ubiquitous in construction areas, not only here in MA, but all across the country!
Bob was an active member of the Byfield Parish Church, serving as the chairman of the Board of Trustees for several years. He was also an active member of the Masonic Temple for 52 years, transferring from the New Meadows Lodge in Topsfield to the Charles C. Dame Lodge in Georgetown in 2010.
Bob enjoyed hiking the White Mountains with his brother, and golfing, especially with his son and grandson. During the 1980s he developed a passion for bicycling and participated in the first three Pan Massachusetts Challenge races. He was an avid fan of all New England sports teams. (Go, Pats!) But, above all, Bob enjoyed spending time with his wife, children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren – out in the yard playing games in the summer or throwing snowballs and sledding in the winter, and always with the grill on in the background.
Those who knew Bob will remember his kindness and generosity; he was quick to help, with no questions asked. They will also remember his sense of humor and the ease of his laughter. Everyone who met Bob loved him. He had a big heart and a sensitive spirit; he was a good, loving and generous family man. Bob will be missed beyond words but we take comfort in knowing that he is now at peace.
He is preceded in death by his daughter, Elizabeth, and his sister, Winifred.
Bob is survived by his wife, Nancy, his son, Christopher and his wife Susan of Wilmington, his daughter Jessica-Anne Becker and her husband David of Walworth, NY, his daughter Susannah of Seabrook, NH, and his daughter Hope of Bradford, his grandson Alexander and his partner Nina, and his granddaughters Sarah-Anne, Kaitlin, Emma, Helene, Colleen, and Charlotte, well as his great-grandchildren, Lucas and Liam Robert. He is also survived by his brother, A. Belman Carter and his wife Carole, his sister-in-law Anne Roberts, and his brother-in-law Dr. Franklin C. (Scott) Roberts and his wife Emily.
A Funeral Service will be held at the Byfield Parish Church, 132 Jackman Street, Georgetown, MA, on Saturday, December 21, 2019 at 12:00 p.m.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to the Alzheimer's charity of your choice.

Acupuncture is thought to work in different ways to help relieve the pain of arthritis. For one, it stimulates your body to produce endorphins. These are natural pain killers and chemicals that help you feel good. Another way acupuncture may help is by disrupting the pain signals in your hand so your brain doesn't interpret them as painful sensations. Acupuncture needles may also release pain by relaxing the muscles and fascia in your hand that are tense and contributing to your joint pain.
Although acupuncture involves sticking needles in your hand, it isn't a painful treatment. The needles are tiny and sharp, so you don't feel pain when they are inserted. The practitioner may vibrate the needles once they're in place, so you will feel movement on your skin. Sometimes a mild electrical current or heat is applied to the needles, and that may cause a little discomfort. Your practitioner might determine that deep needling is necessary to treat your arthritis. In that case, the needles will be inserted a little deeper than usual, and you may feel some aching when sore spots are stimulated.
When you are treated for arthritis of the hand, the practitioner may insert needles into your hand only. However, if he or she thinks you'll get better results with a whole-body treatment, then needles will be placed at various strategic points along your entire body. The needles are usually left in place for several minutes. While you may feel some relief after the first treatment, you will probably need to take a series of treatments for the best results. Since arthritis symptoms tend to come and go, you will probably want to return for treatments when your pain flares up again.
You can take acupuncture treatments in a variety of settings. A chiropractor's office, alternative health clinic, or even an arthritis clinic may offer acupuncture treatments. You may want to combine acupuncture with traditional medical care or other alternative health treatments so your arthritis pain is kept under control.
Acupuncture has become more common and accepted, so it's possible your insurance company will pay for the treatments. Even if you have to pay out of pocket, the treatments are usually less than $100 per session. If acupuncture works for you, the cost would be worth it for pain-free hands.


(Phantom) L'opéra Restaurant is a red masterpiece by French architect Odile Decq. This striking set up was opened recently in the Palais Garnier in Paris, France. Created within the historical building, this modern design interacts seamlessly with the classical surroundings.
The interior has been carefully designed not to touch the existing historical structure, keeping both the old and new attractions in harmony.
This structure seats 90 guest at one time and it's upper level is suspended using hidden steel plates so as to appear supported by thin organic legs.
The striking red chairs, benches, and floors produce a theatrical character reminiscent of the phantom of the opera which was once performed within the auditorium.

OWNER: BOSOX CLOSER A 'MOUSE'
Kevin Kernan
Social Links for Kevin Kernan
TAMPA – It's one thing for owners to have a little back-and-forth like John Henry and Hank Steinbrenner did recently in regard to Red Sox Nation vs. Yankees Universe. It's another for a young player to take a shot at an owner.
That's what Jonathan Papelbon, 27, did in criticizing Steinbrenner.
"I don't know if he's trying to stir things up or not," the Bosox closer said. "I sure as hell don't care, because he sure as hell hasn't stepped on a baseball field. He needs to just stick to pencil-pushing, I guess."
Hammerin' Hank fired back yesterday.
"Being insulted by Papelbon is like being attacked by a mouse," Steinbrenner told The Post.
"John Henry and I traded a couple of jabs good-naturedly," he added. "So now, all of a sudden, this player, this 20-something kid who really doesn't know his way in the world, comes out with a personal insult. There's no excuse for that."
When was the last time you saw Derek Jeter criticize an owner? Steinbrenner did add that Papelbon "is one great pitcher." And he'd love to have him on his team.
"It was nothing personal against John [Henry], nothing personal against Larry [Lucchino], nothing personal against [Terry] Francona, nothing personal against the team or the fans," Steinbrenner said. "It was just a general comment that is the truth. I respect the Red Sox and their fans, but the Yankees are the most popular team in American sports. Ask Jerry Jones in Dallas, he'll tell you that. That's why they want to do business with us. So it's just a fact."
America's Team and Yankees Universe, that's interesting.
"I really TAMPA – It's one thing for owners to have a little back-and-forth like John Henry and Hank Steinbrenner did recently in regard to Red Sox Nation vs. Yankees Universe. It's another for a young player to take a shot at an owner.
"I really have nothing more to say about the Red Sox the entire season," he said. "We've covered that ground and, basically, I'm tired of talking about them."
And he's not going to worry about being attacked by a mouse.

Park says she won't tolerate security threats
Left: Park Geun-hye, presidential candidate of the ruling Saenuri Party, makes a courtesy call yesterday to former President Kim Young-sam. [NEWSIS] Right: Park also visits Lee Hee-ho, the widow of former President Kim Dae-jung, in Donggyo-dong, central Seoul. [YONHAP]
The conservative ruling party's presidential candidate Park Geun-hye yesterday made public her stance on inter-Korean relations that she won't tolerate any threat to South Korea's national security, while leaving the door open for dialogue with the North.
Park, the Saenuri Party's presidential candidate, talked about various pending issues surrounding her campaign and her visions at a luncheon with a group of journalists. Asked about the current deadlock in the inter-Korean relations, Park said she thinks it is necessary to have various talks with the North to improve the situation.
Asked if she, as president, would restore relations with the North without an apology for the Yeonpyeong Island shelling and the death of a South Korean tourist at the Mount Kumgang resort, Park said no threats to South Korea's security will be tolerated.
Since the launch of the Lee Myung-bak administration in February 2008, relations between the two Koreas rapidly deteriorated as Pyongyang staged a series of deadly provocations.
A South Korean tourist was shot dead in the North's Mount Kumgang resort in July 2008. The North also sank a South Korean warship Cheonan in March 2010 and shelled Yeonpyeong Island the following November.
"It is irresponsible for the government to keep a business-as-usual attitude as if nothing happened because many young soldiers were sacrificed," Park said. "But it is also a problem that this deadlock continues."
"I will make sure that a clear message will be given that any harmful action to our people will be retaliated and face a clear and stronger retribution."
During the luncheon, Park also talked about her vision for national unity by ending decades of ideological and regional rifts.
In a symbolic first step, she paid respect before the grave of liberal icon former President Roh Moo-hyun on Tuesday and she said yesterday,"I hope it will serve as the beginning of national unity."
Park continued her quest for unity yesterday by making visits to the widow of the late President Kim Dae-jung and former President Kim Young-sam. The two Kims were the champions of democratization who fought against her father Park Chung Hee's authoritarian rule from his military coup in 1961 till his assassination in 1979.
Park paid the visit to Lee Hee-ho, widow of Kim Dae-jung, in the afternoon. Park's last meeting with Lee was when she visited Kim after he was hospitalized in August 2009.
"If you become the president, all women in the country will be proud of you," Lee was quoted as telling Park by a spokesman for Park's election camp, lawmaker Lee Sang-il. "It will be the first in our country, and Korea's prestige will grow."
As the former first lady, known for her efforts to improve women's rights, Lee asked Park to pay more attention to the issue, Park replied that "I will work hard to meet expectations."
The widow of the late president, known for his engagement policy toward North Korea, also expressed hope for better inter-Korean ties.
At the meeting, Park also told Lee about her meeting with the late president in 2004.
"At the time, I apologized to him for his suffering during my father's regime, and Kim responded positively," Park said. "I have kept his words in my heart. I also appreciate his decision to build a memorial for my father."
Park also said Kim has told her in the past to work for national unity and she will work on the issue.
Earlier in the morning, Park paid a visit to former President Kim Young-sam. The last time Park met with Kim was in 2008 at the funeral of the former president's father.
During her 20-minute meeting with Kim, Park promised her efforts for national unity once again. "For Korea to make another leap for advancement and for the people to be happy, unity is crucial," Park said. "I will put forth efforts toward this."
Kim wished Park luck in her political journey. "The country is in a crisis economically, socially," Kim said. "Korea's relationships with China and Japan are also complicated. In this crisis, the role of the presidential candidate from the ruling party is very important, and I hope you to do well."

Evidence (LAWS6207)
Evidence law governs the use of proof in legal proceedings and answers important questions like: How much proof is enough? What will the jury be allowed to hear? And what kinds of proof can be used? Evidence law is also a major component of trial procedure, governing how proof is presented in a trial. The law of evidence regulates the emergence of the parties' narratives; and decisions about evidentiary issues frequently determine which version of events is believed, what is considered 'fact' and what is not. Liberty, property, livelihoods and families can hang in the balance.
Understanding the law of evidence is integral to understanding the trial process and the development of all areas of substantive law. Evidence law is the lens through which the legal system views the "facts" of a case. Understanding how a record of evidence is developed will give you new insight into litigation processes and appellate decisions. It will also give you a new perspective on the adversarial system and the importance of advocacy. If you become a litigator or barrister someday, evidence law will be your bread and butter. If you never become a litigator, you will need to know evidence law in order to make appropriate decisions for clients who are not in litigation. Protecting your clients' rights outside litigation may depend on your knowledge about what might be admissible if litigation were eventually employed. Even if you leave law and go into business or another field, understanding evidence will give you a new perspective on the nightly news.
This course is an introduction to the law of evidence. It covers important aspects of proof, admissibility, fact-finding, and the standards and procedures that are applied in legal proceedings. While it would be possible (and fascinating) to take a philosophical approach to evidence issues, this course takes a practical approach. It will require you to participate in discussion, present arguments, think on your feet, and make strategic decisions. You should leave the course with fluency in Uniform Evidence Law and with a strong understanding of the principles that undergird the rules of evidence and trial procedure in common law systems.
Formulate a plan for establishing each legal element of a case to the required standard of proof with admissible evidence when given a set of case file materials and a legal case to prove (e.g. negligence, defamation, theft, murder, etc.).
Plan and execute a strategic witness examination that comports with evidentiary standards and that persuasively establishes a fact in issue in a case; anticipate and respond to evidentiary objections that may be raised during your examination.
Identify, evaluate, articulate and assert appropriate evidentiary objections on examination of a witness; articulate the reasons for your objections and respond persuasively to questions from the judge.
Critically analyse, draft and execute a witness examination for the introduction of an item of proof into evidence;
Formulate, assert and support strategic objections to items of proof, using appropriate evidentiary rules and tailoring objections to the facts at hand;
Use a variety of case file materials (witness statements, documents, etc.) to make a coherent and persuasive argument for the admission or exclusion of a specific item of evidence; select and incorporate factual information and legal standards drawn from both evidentiary rules and substantive law (such as criminal law or tort law).
Analyse and apply evidentiary standards to a complex evidentiary issue; decide when further case law research is needed, conduct necessary research, evaluate case law, and present a persuasive argument for the admission or exclusion of the evidence.
Articulate a coherent, objective decision on the admissibility of evidence; incorporate evidentiary standards, substantive law, principles of statutory construction and policy considerations in your decision.

We are using the SFH-50 through the UDP firmware, since we try to get best performances from the unit from a low level.
I must say that, in terms of HW, the unit accomplishes expectations. The UDP firmware provided is clearly developed by great engineers, and the MRMOCO team provides great support.
Summarising, we had a very positive experience, and we plan to continue with the MRMOCO products for the coming near activities.
Get the same shot, every time, every product, for every shoot!
The biggest things are the consistency. We get the same shot, every time, every product, for every shoot. No variances in position or angle, which creates the uniformity we need.
We use it for each of our retailers, and this means multiple settings with different positions. However, with this unit we just load the settings we need and in seconds we have the preset positions and setting for that category.
Another thing is versatility. I can adjust it for anything I need. Any angle, any height, any position on the turntable, and as few or as many shots as I want.
By removing the manual process, the automation really saves a lot of time. I'm able to load it and set it up VERY QUICKLY. If someone comes in and says they need a shot done by tonight, I can have it loaded and set up fast and pump out the images I need in no time flat.
By having the ability to load a setting and get moving into the shoot using my presets, it totally changes the game. I'm able to shoot so quickly with it that I am able to burn through shoots in an hour that would have usually taken me a whole day to shoot. I thought I would be using these more, but I just find I get all my work done so fast that I'm only using the Orbital 3 of the 5 days I had planned on needing it.
I was looking for a similar system since last year, at NAB, I found Mark Roberts Motion Control and since then I started the process of knowing the systems. I like the hybrid way of working with remote control IP or console; the distance from where I can control the robotics; the sensitivity, speed and robustness – very intuitive to configure and use. [It is also] very important to be able to record presets movements.
We use the system in a studio with a small set, where there is no space to install a tripod and place a cameraman. The robotic system is installed in the lighting grid. We use 1500A Sony cameras, all camera controls can be commanded and managed from the console. Despite the weight of the camera, the AFC-head has very robust robotic movements.
It's quick and strong, but safe enough for people with little training to use it….
I've been in charge of the Orbital as long as it has been at Schjærven. We have used the Orbital for product photography, video and for non-conventional usage and had it running 16 hours a day for months! The Orbital is flexible enough to meet many of our demands, especially when we shoot and plan creatively – we even shot a very cool and simple film with it. It's quick and strong, but safe enough for people with little training to use it. (Without killing off the entire crew).
The accuracy of the Orbital is great – we depend on its ability to precisely repeat the same motion over and over. The spin rig software inside Flair is simple and quite flexible. The turntable seems to be a workhorse – we've loaded it with over 100kg and it still turns seamlessly. Having one of your engineers over for a service or calling Mr. Moco is a great experience – you guys are fantastic and patient.
We really like the MRMC SFH-50 pan tilt units from the perspective of an all-in-one solution. They support multiple axis of control and GPIO all from a compact control box that is mounted to the pan/tilt unit so all that has to be supplied is power and Ethernet for having a fully functional system. That is the biggest plus these units have. Able to run stepper motor axis and dimmable lights all from the same controller is great.
We also like the support team and the quick responses and flexibility of MRMC as a company to support our requirements, which are not exactly what the pan/tilt units were originally intended for. MRMC saved us a lot of headache from having a clobbered together control system by supporting almost everything we need to do from their single control box. No external enclosures and control systems required.
Keep up the good work – it is a great all-in-one solution!
Electrical Engineer, Lund Engineering, Inc.
The AFC-100 has integrated seamlessly into our existing ethernet infrastructure, offering a superb payload in a small package plus silky smooth motion. It has also enabled us to cost-effectively control lenses suitable for 4K that did not have integrated lens motors. MRMC also adapted the heads to our needs, including motorising our lenses and offering mounting facilities for the teleprompters and bespoke mounting of the heads to the pedestals.
The Studiobot's quality is amazing, its robotics allowing us to get completely unique shots. Thanks MRMC for all the support in bringing our idea to life.
The S3 makes the process of doing 3D very easy. If working in the time-lapse environment in 2D, setting up in 3D is almost no difference so you might as well do it in 3D.
"It's reliable – it just works.
"In Kew I had it upside down out of a window in a greenhouse on the end of a magic arm and a D2X and got great 3D shots of a rare cactus opening. Build quality and support is worth a lot to me and MRMC excel at both of those.
"I've got 4, Tim Sheppard has a whole bunch more, they are just really, really good.
We are pleased to add the SFH-30 pan tilt head to our existing range of Mark Roberts Motion Control equipment, including three Milos. With much of our work now gearing towards DSLR cameras, the SFH-30 Head is compact, accurate and ideal for our animation needs.
I have shot several animation films in my career, and this is the first time that I have had the opportunity to work with the SFH-30. I'm truly fascinated by its precision of movement as well as its lightness and stability. It is very accessible and user-friendly!

RECOGNIZING ALCALDESSA ELIZABETH KEMP OF SONOMA, CALIFORNIA
HON. MIKE THOMPSON of California in the house of representatives
Madam Speaker, I rise today, along with my colleague, Lynn Woolsey, to recognize Elizabeth Kemp, who has been named the City of Sonoma's 2009 Alcaldessa, or Honorary Mayor.
The title, "Alcalde" or "Alcaldessa" when referring to a woman, is the Spanish word for "Mayor." During the Spanish colonial period in California, the Alcalde was the primary civil authority. In modern times in the City of Sonoma, it is an honorary title and the contemporary Alcalde or Alcaldessa presides over ceremonial events for the city.
Alcaldes and Alcaldessas are nominated by the community and are representative of individuals with a long record of volunteer work. Ms. Kemp is no exception to this rule.
Ms. Kemp attributes her community activism to her early years in London during WW II. That experience led her to be aware of the needs of others and to an understanding that anyone's circumstances can change in a matter of minutes. She emigrated from England when she was 21 and has lived in Sonoma since 1969.
In 2000, Ms. Kemp recognized that many migrant workers had no place to live and were sleeping under bridges. She helped to organize one temporary camp, then joined with Vineyard Workers Services to create two more camps that are open during harvest. She currently serves as President of the Board of Directors of Vineyard Workers Services.
Ms. Kemp initiated the Brown Bagger program in 2004. The program prepares and distributes more than 180 nutritious lunches each week to the homeless and others who are unable to purchase food. This past summer, Ms. Kemp organized a group of volunteers to provide bag lunches to students who normally receive free lunches at school when school is in session and to their younger siblings. As a member of the Board of Directors of Sonoma Overnight Support, Ms. Kemp has also been involved in the development of the first permanent homeless shelter in Sonoma.
And, lest we think her interests are only parochial, Ms. Kemp is an active member of Friends of Turkana, a local group that raises funds for two medical missions in East Africa.
Madam Speaker, Elizabeth Kemp is a beloved and vitally important member of the community and it is appropriate that we acknowledge her today as Sonoma's Alcaldessa for 2009.

Davie Essay: A Peace Worth Disturbing
19Dec 2019 16 Dec 2019
How Louisiana Forums Redefined Free Speech
William R. Davie
Americans are a fun-loving people, and a lot of the fun to be had is out in public. Americans travel by public transit to eat at public restaurants, go to watch a parade in public, or find a good book to read at the public library.
What Americans don't often like to see in public is injustice, protests, or acts of bigotry. When such unpleasant events emerge in full view as they did in the 1960s, Americans must confront the challenge of how to handle unpopular ideas in public spaces. Four landmark decisions in Garner v. Louisiana (1961), Taylor v. Louisiana (1962), Cox v. Louisiana (1965), and Brown v. Louisiana (1966) inform the historic fight for free speech of a different sort in the deep South.
Act One: Lunch Counter Controversy
The capital city of Baton Rouge takes pride in its flagship of higher learning: Louisiana State University, prominently situated near downtown on a tree-lined, lakeside campus. The city's aristocracy loves this venerated institution, yet it is less likely to fawn over its historically distant black neighbor, Southern University, tucked away out of sight on the city's north side. This racial apartheid was on full display in 1960, when Southern's students seized seats reserved for whites at lunch counters in Sitman's Drugstore, Kress Department Store, and the Greyhound bus station in Baton Rouge. Moving against this public statement with unusual force were Baton Rouge police, who arrested, charged, and convicted them for trying to "disturb or alarm the public" under a state law (See Title 14, Article 103(7) La. Criminal Code).
After appeals were exhausted before Louisiana courts, the U.S. Supreme Court under Chief Justice Earl Warren accepted the case of Garner v. Louisiana (1961). The stage was set in this courtroom drama pitting Louisiana's legal establishment against President Kennedy's Justice Department, marching in concert with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The civil rights team's leading voice was Thurgood Marshall, a future Supreme Court justice who fought to change these separate and unequal circumstances.

In the unanimous December 1961 ruling of Garner v. Louisiana, the high court found no convincing proof of a breach of peace at those lunch counters in Baton Rouge. Assoc. Justice John Marshall Harlan ruled this sit-in demonstration deserved full constitutional protection. One might assume Garner would be convincing to Baton Rouge officials since it only meant granting the same constitutional rights to African Americans as it had done for union organizers and suffragettes, but it would take three more high court rulings to make that point clear.
Act Two: Boarding the Bus
Six African Americans were convicted of violating Louisiana's breach-of-the-peace statute in Shreveport. Four of the blacks walked into the white waiting room at a bus depot to buy tickets and board a bus bound for Jackson, Mississippi. Noticing the racial lines had been crossed, Shreveport's chief of police asked the men why they were seated in that part of the building, advising them to go wait in the colored waiting room. When the four men refused to leave, they were threatened with arrest, and their spokesman is quoted as replying, "go ahead and arrest us" (370 U.S. at 155).
Testimony at their trial indicated onlookers at the bus station climbed onto seats to get a better view, but otherwise the evidence of unruly or violent behavior was never shown. In fact, the men were "quiet, orderly, and polite" (370 U.S. at 156). In 1962, the Supreme Court soundly rejected Louisiana's argument that "the mere presence of Negroes in a white waiting room was likely to give rise to a breach of the peace" (370 U.S. at 154).
Act Three: A Parade of Protesters
The next story began during the 1961 Christmas shopping season, when 23 African American protesters started picketing a segregated restaurant. Local police responded and charged them with illegal picketing. The next day, Congregationalist minister B. Elton Cox came to their support by securing permission to bring an estimated 2,000 protesters from Southern University to march across the street from where they were held in jail.
Rev. Cox's exhortations on the sidewalk for whites and blacks to come together caught the attention of white employees in the central business district. Assoc. Justice Goldberg described the scene:
They then sang "God Bless America," pledged allegiance to the flag, prayed briefly, and sang one or two hymns, including "We Shall Overcome." The 23 students who were locked in jail cells in the courthouse building out of the sight of the demonstrators responded by themselves singing; this, in turn, was greeted with cheers and applause by the demonstrators. (379 U.S. at 543)
It was not this part of the demonstration that agitated police but the manner in which Cox told the crowd to disperse. Baton Rouge police responded by using tear gas on the protesters. The minister was arrested and charged with provoking a breach of the peace, picketing near the courthouse, and obstruction of a public passageway. Rev. Cox was convicted on all three counts and lost all appeals at the state level. Louisiana's legal solidarity against integration ultimately gave way to a Supreme Court justice when Justice Goldberg, who might have recalled his earlier life as a special counsel for the AFL-CIO, defended Cox's First Amendment right to use public picketing in protest against unfair circumstances.
Still, the Court had to deal with the three convictions, and the first to fall was the conviction for a breach of the peace because the evidence showed it to be a peaceful protest. The Court was unanimous on that point, further holding the Louisiana law unconstitutional based on its overbroad terms. The vote of the justices was split on the other two charges, but both times the majority voted in the Baton Rouge minister's favor.
Act Four: The Library
By 1964, ten years had elapsed since the landmark Supreme Court case Brown v. the Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas (1954) held school segregation to be in violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. When the U.S. Supreme Court accepted its fourth case from Louisiana, Brown v. Louisiana, the scene shifted from the schoolhouse to the public library. Books were available for loan to African American residents in the library branches of East Feliciana, West Feliciana, and St. Helena Parishes, but all of them were segregated. Blacks were unwelcome in any of the branch libraries, and if they tried to board the red bookmobile rather than the blue one, they quickly learned the red bus served whites only.
The lead plaintiff in this case was Henry Brown, an African American joined by four others when he entered a library branch in 1964. He requested a book, "The Story of the Negro", which was found at a distant library following confusion over the book's author. The librarian advised it was not available in that parish but promised to request it for him so he could either check it out later or have it mailed to him. Brown then sat in the one chair available to him in the small building with fellow demonstrators standing nearby. The librarian asked them to leave, but they held their ground.
The lawyer for Louisiana argued they were not reading anything but were just staring into space. An officer arrested all four for violating a breach-of-the-peace statute. They were tried and convicted, and the state supreme court denied their appeals, prompting a federal petition. A plurality opinion from the Supreme Court concluded the evidence could not support the disturbing the peace charge in the library, which was less disruptive than earlier incidents in Louisiana.
Coda: Speech Plus
The civil rights drama that unfolded in Louisiana's public spaces during the 1960s still defines the forums of free speech and speech plus today, even though it did take four Supreme Court decisions focused on the lunch counter, the bus station, city square, and public library to underscore how important unpopular ideas are to free expression. Using breach-of-peace laws, the custom of dividing races by segregation was maintained, but once the idea of desegregation was freely expressed in Louisiana, it showed how the popular opinion can be just plain wrong.

The Ministry of Health can confirm that seven (7) cases of tuberculosis were identified among persons who were remanded in Police Lock-Ups in the KSA between January-August 2013. Investigations so far reveal that the infections are unlikely to have been acquired in lockups but rather in their communities of origin.
The public can be assured that active cases are being treated in keeping with established protocols. In addition field investigations by the KSA health Department are ongoing including investigation and screening of household contacts and imates in the affected lockups.
Further the Ministry can confirm that to date no new active cases have been identified in the lockups. Based on the latest data analysis including the comparison of cases between the corresponding periods for 2012 and 2013 and, the geographic distribution of these cases, the MOH has determined that the number of cases is not outside what is normally expected based on the burden of disease for tuberculosis in Jamaica. We continue to monitor the situation.

Swept out to sea: British man dies in pedalo accident on the Costa Dorada
By Euro Weekly News Media • 25 June 2019 • 11:00
A 31 YEAR OLD British man who has yet to be named has died after falling off a pedalo on the Costa Dorada.
Police and paramedics promptly arrived at the scene on Regueral beach, just south of Barcelona in Cambrils. Three ambulances were sent along with five patrol vehicles and members of the local police force. Paramedics performed CPR but the man was pronounced dead around 6pm on Sunday afternoon.
Witnesses say that there were no adverse weather conditions, the warning flags were green all day and there were lifeguards on duty. Despite these favourable conditions, according to local media reports the man was dragged out to sea after falling in the water and subsequently struggling to swim.
Pedalos are easily available for hire on lots of beaches in the area and are usually considered safe.
Last month a five-year-old Georgian girl was swept out to sea just 15 kilometres north of Cambrils in La Pineda after a strong wind blew the inflatable she was on 200 metres from the shoreline.
So far no investigation into Sunday's incident has been announced.
