Like some of you (but unlike many of you), I have never had significant experience with theater (re?) before our time in London. Well, okay, I was a penguin in my local theater's production of Mary Poppins when I was in third grade, but other than that, I didn't act, sing, or dance in school plays, high school or college, I was never on a stage crew or in a costume shop, and I didn't make annual trips to Broadway as a fun family outing. There's really not much theatre in my town. So, for me, the best theatre experience I've had in London was actually our crash course in West End shows by Dickinson alum Rick Fisher.
I didn't come to London a theatre buff, and I'm not leaving London a theatre buff. But I like to think I've expanded my horizons by combining the more pedagogical yet also personal approach by Rick with the actual experience of seeing the plays. Without Rick's background, I'm not sure I could have enjoyed the productions quite so much. It's also helpful to be around people who are interested in theatre, and encourage discussion about it after the show (thanks, guys).
Since the Tate Modern is a global museum and most of its exhibitions are free, there were a lot of people. The escalators and large spaces reminded me of a shopping mall. Its quite a contrast with the Charles Dickens museum, yet both are museums, right?
At the Tate Britain, I was greeted with a smaller crowd. The day that I went to the Tate Modern I was tired, and trying to view the artworks with an open mind is hard to do when there are hordes of people blocking the works from all angles. TB had no such problems. It itself is an impressive museum with an emphasis on British art (duh) but with a respectable collection of international modern art. I even saw a Mondrian painting. I must've been sitting in front of it for nearly half an hour. The painting's greatest virtue is precisely that it is straightforward and pure. In this sense, its somewhat ironic to call it a piece of abstract art. I like it very much, and was impressed at the evocative power of a most primordial form. The painting even looks like a tatami, a seeming reference to the qualities of humility and tranquility that are intrinsic to Japanese culture.
I saw advertisements about an exhibition at the TB exclusively on Eadweard Muybridge, arguably the first person to invent the ontological nature of the cinema. Enough said. The entrance fee was 10 pounds but I didn't mind. The Muybridge was a fantastic exhibition, much more extensive that I had imagined; there must been at least six rooms. I also appreciated that there was a chronological order to the exhibition, beginning with Muybridge's photographs from his early years to the prints from the zoetropes in his later. A proper tribute (and indeed, much deserving) to a pioneer who, although recognized in cinema history, unlike the Lumiere Brothers and Edison/Melies/Porter, is seldom talked about among academics and critics. Just looking at his prints, you realize how much of an influence he has had on the history of the medium. So grateful to have caught this. London has been good to me. If anything, one perk of living in the city is, simply, the range and accessibility you have to the arts.
The fact that the high holy days of Judaism fell during our time in London gave me an opportunity to visit and pray at several different synagogues. On Rosh HaShanah (the New Year), I first went to the Central London Synagogue in the morning. It is the Orthodox Synagogue which we visited as a class. Most of the congregation wasn't participating in the service so it didn't really feel very spiritual. Part of the celebration of Rosh HaShanah is to hear the shofar blown. A shofar is a hollowed out ram's horn and it has been used to communicate in Judaism for thousands of years. I was able to hear the shofar at the Central Synagogue so I was glad I went there for that. Later in the day I headed out to the Northern suburbs of London. I attended an afternoon service with one of my flat mates from my year in Israel. His synagogue was also Orthodox but I felt a lot better about that prayer experience because everyone was participating and seemed very focused.
For Yom Kippur I had a unique opportunity to attend the only Independent synagogue in the UK. The Belsize Square Synagogue was originally founded by German immigrants but has since evolved and incorporated a number of other types of Jews. However, it still hangs onto its origins in the German Haskalah. Haskalah means enlightenment and it is the name given to the beginnings of the Reform movement. The movement began in Germany and was later adopted in the United States and elsewhere. Reform Judaism holds that a Jew should be entirely educated about the whole of Jewish law but then should be allowed to choose those elements of practice which are individually meaningful. In the United States, this is often perceived as a lax sect of Judaism and so, in most congregations that I have experienced, the members end up being mostly secular Jews and largely uneducated about Judaism in the least. At Belsize, however, I met a strange and unexpected contradiction. The service had the most obvious characteristics of a Reform service in the U.S. It had both a choir and organ and was given to churchy tunes at times. You see, the origins of the Haskalah were in a desire for German Jews to emulate their German Christian counterparts. This is evident not only in choir, organ, and tunes, but also in things like synagogue architecture and design. A Reform shul is far more likely to have pews instead of chairs, for instance. At first glance, Belsize Square appeared to be akin to Reform, in fact, the synagogue belonged both to the Reform and Liberal streams of British Judaism at different times but eventually decided it had to be independent. As I sat in services Friday night and all day Saturday, it became obvious why it was so different. The synagogue and community are amazingly traditional in their practices and attitude towards the service. I also noticed how well Jewishly-educated the whole of the congregation seemed to be. While I don't usually go for the choir and organ, I was able to find more respect for it in the context of this shul because it seemed supported by more than just a desire to remain Jewish while acting as Christian as possible. The service was informed by a desire to remain close to the roots of the immigrant community which founded it but also to remain inextricably tied to traditional Judaism. I've never come across a synagogue and community like Belsize in the United States.
Chugah, chugah, chugah, chugah PUB! PUB!
The first time I walked into a pub in London it was a bit like entering an alternate universe where everything is foreign and strange. It was almost like a bar scene in Star Wars. I was with a group of friends and we spent the first five minutes walking back and forth from table to bar, unsure of what to do. We stood awkwardly at the bar then awkwardly at our table, then back to the bar only to stand awkwardly a bit more. Eventually, we managed to be served which is better than I can say for a couple of times at the very beginning when, at the barman's request, I sat down at pubs but then was never served. I still haven't quite worked that one out. What I do know is that it was awfully confusing to be in a pub for the first couple of weeks that I was here in London.
Have good American beers (sorry for this one, Professor Qualls). I've become accustomed to drinking lots of delicious IPAs and Stouts which I haven't been able to find in pubs in London. One really good IPA on draught would do wonders for my homesickness.
I agree with Orwell on this one: a pub absolutely needs a fireplace or three. Not only should a pub have a fireplace but it should also have dark wood paneling, plush carpets, and comfy couches arranged around heavy wooden tables. All of this adds to the antiqueness and hominess of the pub.
A logical extension of such cozy décor is something I've been told some pubs do as the days grow shorter. That is, pubs should have available delicious wintery hot drinks: hot chocolate with Bailey's or peppermint schnapps, warm mulled wine, and hot cider with cinnamon sticks. As Fox talks about, the pub almost serves as a place of asylum, a neutral ground where the other rules of British culture melt away. Nothing would be better in helping them melt away than a nice warm alcoholic drink. England's climate begs for it. I look forward to that in the winterier months.
Lots of good games. I realize that this might be partially against the ethic of the pub but I really like table tennis. Any pub with table tennis and a good IPA would make me a regular.
I think that about does it. I'm obviously not quite as picky as Orwell nor as cynical. I believe that I will find my pub, just as I want it, it's only a matter of time.

Partner Roopal Luhana was also named to the New York Super Lawyers list this year for the fifth year in a row, after being named as a Super Lawyers Rising Star in 2011 and 2012, an honor reserved for no more than two-and-a-half percent of lawyers in New York.
Other attorneys honored include Kendra Goldhirsch, a products liability attorney, who was named a Super Lawyers Rising Star for the third year in a row; and Dori Milner, a mass torts attorney, who was named a Super Lawyers Rising Star for the fourth year in a row.

Bar associations and courts across the country have recognized the legitimacy of the Super Lawyers selection process, which uses a multi-phase rating process involving independent research, peer nominations and peer evaluations to choose those attorneys who are best able to assist consumers. After examining the Super Lawyer selection process, the New Jersey Supreme Court reported that the "procedures are very sophisticated, comprehensive and complex."
The Super Lawyers research staff looks for attorneys who have attained certain honors, then evaluates them on professional achievements such as verdicts and settlements, experience, special licenses and certifications, pro bono and community service, scholarly lectures and writing, representative clients, and more.
Final candidates are grouped according to their primary areas of practice and are rated by panelists on a scale of one to ten. Those with the highest point totals from each category are selected. The final list of Super Lawyers is printed in the Super Lawyers magazine and in leading city and regional magazines across the country as a guide for those individuals seeking quality representation.

Морено Манніні (,  15 серпня 1962, Імола) — колишній італійський футболіст, що грав на позиції захисника.

Більшу частину кар'єри провів у складі клубу «Сампдорія», в якому провів п'ятнадцять сезонів, вигравши за цей час чемпіонат Італії, чотири Кубка Італії, Суперкубок Італії та Кубок Кубків УЄФА. Також виступав за національну збірну Італії, за яку провів десять матчів.

Клубна кар'єра
Народився 15 серпня 1962 року в місті Імола. Вихованець футбольної школи клубу . Дорослу футбольну кар'єру розпочав 1980 року в основній команді того ж клубу, в якій провів один сезон в Серії D, взявши участь у 25 матчах чемпіонату.

1981 року перебрався в  і рік грав за неї у Серії С1, після чого став гравцем «Комо». З новим клубом 1984 року Манніні зайняв 2 місце в в Серії B і вийшов до Серії А.

Проте в елітному дивізіоні Морено дебютував вже у складі іншої команди: своєю грою молодий захисник привернув увагу представників тренерського штабу клубу «Сампдорія», до складу якого приєднався влітку 1984 року. Протягом тих п'ятнадцятити років, що провів у клубі, майже завжди був гравцем стартового складу. Наприкінці 1980-х був частиною непереможної захисної лінії разом з Лукою Пеллегріні, П'єтро Верховодом та Амедео Карбоні, поки останній не покинув клуб у 1990 році.

Манніні виграв разом з генуезцями чотири Кубка Італії, грав у обох великих фіналах — переможному проти «Андерлехта» у 1990 рорці, який приніс команді Кубок Кубків УЄФА, і програному проти «Барселони» в першому розіграші Ліги чемпіонів 1992 року.

Після пониження генуезців у класі влітку 1999 року переїхав на Туманний Альбіон, возз'єднавшись в «Ноттінгем Форест» з товаришем по «Сампдорії» Девідом Платтом. Взяв участь лише в десяти матчах Першого дивізіону, після чого повернувся до рідного «Імолезе», де провів ще один сезон в Серії C2, після чого завершив професійну ігрову кар'єру у 2000 році.

Виступи за збірну
19 лютого 1990 року дебютував в офіційних матчах у складі національної збірної Італії в товариській грі проти збірної Сан-Марино (4:0). Протягом кар'єри у національній команді, яка тривала 4 роки, провів у формі головної команди країни лише 10 матчів і так і не зміг витіснити легендарних захисників того часу Джузеппе Бергомі та Антоніо Бенарріво.

Die St George's Buildings sind ein Geschäftsgebäude in der schottischen Stadt Glasgow. 1966 wurde das Bauwerk in die schottischen Denkmallisten in der höchsten Denkmalkategorie A aufgenommen.

Beschreibung
Im Jahre 1804 wurde am Standort das Royal Theatre erbaut. Nach dessen Zerstörung 1829 veranlasste Archibald MacLellan 1834 den Bau der St George's Buildings. Für den Entwurf zeichnet der schottische Architekt David Hamilton verantwortlich.

Das dreistöckige Gebäude steht an der Queen Street nahe dem George Square im Zentrum Glasgows. Es ist klassizistisch gestaltet. Seine ostexponierte Frontfassade ist sieben Achsen weit. Weite Pilaster flankieren das mittige angeordnete zweiflüglige Hauptportal. Sie laufen in Konsolen aus, die eine Verdachung mit der Inschrift "St George's Buildings" tragen. Während an der linken Schaufensterfront noch ursprüngliche Details erhalten sind, stammt die rechte vollständig aus einer neueren Überarbeitung. Weite Pilaster schließen das Erdgeschoss zu beiden Seiten ab. Oberhalb der Schaufenster zieren ein Fries und ein Gurtgesims die Fassade.

Kolossale korinthische Pilaster mit Akanthuskapitellen trennen die Fenster in den beiden Obergeschossen. Die zwölfteiligen Sprossenfenster im ersten Obergeschoss sind größer dimensioniert als die Fenster im zweiten Obergeschoss. Die Fassade schließt mit einem Fries und einem weit auskragendem Kranzgesimse mit Zahnschnitt. Darüber treten drei Rundbogenfenster des Mansardgeschosses mit Pilastern hervor. Das Gebäude schließt mit einem schiefergedeckten Dach.

Russia Makes Rival UN Move on MH17 Probe After Dismissing Tribunal Bid
An armed separatist stands on part of the wreckage of the Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 plane after it crashed near the settlement of Grabovo in the Donetsk region, July 17, 2014.
Russia is pushing for a greater U.N. role in an investigation into what caused the downing of a passenger plane in eastern Ukraine after dismissing a proposal by Malaysia, Australia, the Netherlands, Belgium and Ukraine for a U.N.-backed tribunal.
Led by the Dutch, the countries are conducting a criminal inquiry into Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 and circulated a draft resolution to the U.N. Security Council earlier this month that would create a tribunal to prosecute those responsible.
But Russian President Vladimir Putin has described the move as counterproductive and premature. Russia is a Security Council veto power and therefore could block the bid if it is put to a vote.
Russia has instead circulated its own rival draft U.N. resolution that would "demand that the perpetrators of the aerial incident be brought to justice." The 15-member council discussed the rival draft resolutions on Monday.
New Zealand Ambassador Gerard van Bohemen, president of the council for July, said it was a "very positive discussion," but noted that the key hurdle was the issue of a tribunal.
"There was strong support in the room for the establishment of a tribunal. Russia of course has a different perspective on this," he told reporters.
Russian U.N. Ambassador Vitaly Churkin said earlier that Moscow was opposed to an international tribunal because "we believe it's not in the U.N. Charter, the U.N. Security Council is not supposed to deal with situations like that."
When asked if Russia was against the tribunal proposal, Churkin said: "Yes." Earlier this month he described the proposal as an attempt to organize a "grandiose, political show."
Flight MH17 was shot down on July 17 last year with 298 passengers on board, two-thirds of them Dutch. It crashed in Ukrainian territory held by Russian-backed rebels. A final report on the cause of the crash, separate to the criminal investigation, is due in October from the Dutch Safety Board.
Ukraine and Western countries accuse the rebels of shooting down the plane with a Russian-made missile. But Moscow has rejected accusations it supplied the rebels with SA-11 Buk anti-aircraft missile systems.
The Russian U.N. draft, seen by Reuters, would request U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to report to the council within two weeks on "the steps that would enhance the role of the United Nations in support of the (safety) investigation" and the appointment of a U.N. special envoy on the incident.
It also expresses concern that the ongoing safety investigation has been delayed and "does not ensure due transparency in its organization and work methods, which may have a negative impact on its outcome."
British U.N. Ambassador Matthew Rycroft, also a council veto power, said on Monday: "We don't support the Russian draft."
Malaysia, Australia, the Netherlands, Belgium and Ukraine rejected on Monday the accusations in the Russian draft, saying that both the safety and criminal investigations were being carried out in line with the highest international standards.
The Russian draft resolution asks for those countries to "keep the council fully and regularly informed on the progress" of the criminal investigation. But in a joint statement they said the criminal investigation would remain confidential so any future prosecutions would not be jeopardized.
"It is important for the Security Council to take clear and decisive action against those responsible for the downing of MH17 to send a clear message to the growing number of non-State actors with the ability to target civilian aircraft that such attacks will not be tolerated," the statement said.
Those countries hope to put their draft resolution to a vote this month, diplomats said.

Q: Failing to load script files in target page after window.open() I am using webstorm to open my webpages.
Basically, I have a customers.js that contains window.open("../customers-form.html"), and customers-form contains a script with src="./scripts/customer-form.js".
When I open customers-form.html directly, the script runs fine, but there is a problem with accessing it through window.open() from the other file.
GET http://localhost:63342/scripts/customers-form.js net::ERR_ABORTED 404 (Not Found)
Thank you for your time!
EDIT:
I noticed that the link when I am in customers.html is localhost:63342/WDF/customers.html, but localhost:63342/customers-form.html after window.open(). This probably is the problem, but I have no idea how this can be fixed. For some reasong, webstorm is loading customers-form.html outside of its parent folder WDF.
EDIT 2:
I fixed it by using location.href = "../../WDF/customers-form.html".

A: Since I was calling location.href (or windown.open()) from a javascript file, I thought that the current directory is that of the same file, not of the html document, but I was mistaken. Those calls go back to the html document.

In placing, renewing, consulting on or servicing your insurance coverages, Gallagher companies may participate in contingent and supplemental commission arrangements with intermediaries and insurance companies that provide for additional compensation if certain underwriting, profitability, volume or retention goals are achieved. Such goals are typically based on the total amount of certain insurance coverages placed by Gallagher with the insurance company, not on an individual policy basis. As a result, Gallagher may be considered to have an incentive to place your insurance coverages with a particular insurance company. If you do not wish to have your commercial insurance placement included in consideration for additional compensation, contact your producer or service team for an Opt-out form.
Gallagher Companies may receive investment income on fiduciary funds temporarily held by them, or from obtaining or generating premium finance quotes, unless prohibited by law.
Gallagher Companies may also access or have an ownership interest in other facilities, including wholesalers, reinsurance intermediaries, captive managers, underwriting managers and others that act as intermediaries for both Gallagher and other brokers in the insurance marketplace some of which may earn and retain customary brokerage commission and fees for their work.
If you have specific questions about the compensation received by Gallagher and its affiliates in relation to your insurance placements, please contact your Gallagher representative for more details.
If this proposal contains options to purchase TRIA/TRIPRA coverage, the proposed TRIA/TRIPRA program may not cover all terrorism losses. While the amendments to TRIA eliminated the distinction between foreign and domestic acts of terrorism, a number of lines of coverage excluded under the amendments passed in 2005 remain excluded including commercial automobile, burglary and theft insurance; surety insurance, farm owners multiple perils and professional liability (although directors and officers liability is specifically included). If such excluded coverages are required, we recommend that you consider purchasing a separate terrorism policy. Please note that a separate terrorism policy for these excluded coverages may be necessary to satisfy loan covenants or other contractual obligations. TRIPRA includes a $100 billion cap on insurers' aggregate liability.
The TRIPRA program increases the amount needed in total losses by $20 million each calendar year before the TRIPRA program responds from the 2015 trigger of $100 million to $200 million by the year 2020.
TRIPRA is set to expire on December 31, 2020. There is no certainty of extension, thus the coverage provided by your insurers may or may not extend beyond December 31, 2020. In the event you have loan covenants or other contractual obligations requiring that TRIA/TRIPRA be maintained throughout the duration of your policy period, we recommend that a separate "Stand Alone" terrorism policy be purchased to satisfy those obligations.
The information contained in this proposal is based on the historical loss experience and exposures provided to Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. Insurance Brokers of California, Inc.. This proposal is not an actuarial study. Should you wish to have this proposal reviewed by an independent actuary, we will be pleased to provide you with a listing of actuaries for your use.
Premiums for the above policies are due and payable as billed, in full or as insurance company installments. Premiums may be financed, subject to acceptance by an approved finance company. Note: Following acceptance, completion (and signature) of a premium finance agreement with the specified down payment is required.
It is understood that any other type of exposure/coverage is either self-insured or placed by another brokerage firm other than Gallagher. If you need help in placing other lines of coverage or covering other types of exposures, please contact your Gallagher representative.
We consider as confidential any information presented by Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. in our written response to your "request for proposal," as well as subsequent verbal and written communications between our organizations.
We ask that other brokers not have access to our material and that information presented in this proposal be shared only with those who have a need to know within your company.
This proposal of coverage is intended to facilitate your understanding of the insurance program we have arranged on your behalf. It is not intended to replace or supersede your insurance policies.


Microsoft's new business communication product is finally coming to the Mac after the company launched it for PC users last year.
The company announced the first technical preview of Skype for Business for Mac on Tuesday morning, giving users of Apple computers an easy way to connect to meetings they have scheduled through Microsoft's professional audio and videoconferencing software.
When users sign into the app, they'll see their Skype for Business meetings for the current day and the following one, and be able to easily join them to discuss whatever business things they want to with the other people invited.
Skype for Business is the successor to the company's venerable Lync product, which is still available for Mac during this transition.
The final release of the Mac version of Skype for Business is slated for the third quarter. Between now and then, Microsoft has two additional beta phases planned for the app. The second beta phase will include instant messaging, presence indicators and access to a user's contacts.
In the third beta phase, Microsoft will bring along support for telephony and other advanced features supported by other versions of the product. That's important for businesses that have paid for advanced Skype for Business features like the ability to place phone calls from the application over a traditional phone line.
This beta push is part of Microsoft's ongoing strategy to extend the reach of its products to a wide variety of platforms, including the Mac.


Elon Musk wants to transform humanity into a planet-hopping species, and SpaceX's BFR rocket is the key to making this happen. At the company's headquarters in Hawthorne, California, on Monday, the CEO detailed how Japanese billionaire Yusaku Maezawa has paid to fly using the rocket with a group of artists around the moon. Humans have visited the moon before, but the successful creation of the BFR could enable Musk's grander plans.
The BFR at a refueling station.
The BFR's Raptor engines are designed with refueling in mind. At last September's International Astronautical Congress, Musk explained how the engines use liquid oxygen and methane as a propellant, so by using a combination of water mining and carbon dioxide collection, scientists can set up propellant plants to create more rocket fuel and continue the journey. The rocket is designed for full reusability, and it's capable of moving up to 100 metric tons with each refuel.
The system means humans can transport large amounts of resources far into the solar system and establish more permanent bases. Paul Wooster, principal Mars development engineer for SpaceX, explained earlier this month that the company plans to send supply BFRs to Mars before sending humans, establishing a propellant plant before ultimately expanding into a multi-city settlement, enabling scientists to conduct experiments on the history and geology of the planet.
It all starts with Maezawa's moon mission, tentatively scheduled for a 2023 launch. Maezawa now plans to choose a group of people for his trip, before they undergo a rigorous training process ahead of the four-to-five-day mission.
The mission could seem rather standard in a few years from now.

Zombie Flu Pandemic
Does art imitate life or vice versa? The Triumvirate is a dystopia novel set in the not-to-distant future, it 's story about love and loyalty, politics and leadership, and the challenges for civilization caused by climate change. When I began this novel I was looking for positive solutions to climate change, but the more I researched the more apparent it became there are none. As a species, we'll likely survive, but fifty years from now the world will be a much different and not necessarily better place. This chapter was written two years ago and is eerily familiar to what is happening right now. You don't have to be psychic to predict the calamities that are about to beset civilization. The Triumvirate is still being considered by traditional publishers, but will likely be self-published in the fall of 2020, pandemic permitting.
THE WORLD WAS IN THE grip of a deadly flu pandemic. Shyloh and Aiya were at the InterFaith office recruiting members to volunteer if caution turned to crisis and a Public Health Emergency was declared.
They paused to watch a live broadcast of the Chief Medical Health Officer in charge of British Columbia's Centre for Disease Control and Prevention as she described the measures in place if the few diagnosed cases could not be contained.
"We have ordered the closure of all educational institutions and day care facilities and concerts, rallies and mass gatherings of any sort are prohibited until further notice," the doctor said.
"International travel has been restricted with screening facilities established at all points of entry and we are discouraging all domestic travel as well. We advised citizens to stay home and avoid contact with others unless absolutely necessary.
"If this the situation worsens, and it can quickly, we can and will impose tracing, confinement and quarantine and have already established and equipped such centres and have the transport ready to take people to them."
They called it The Zombie Flu because it was thought to have originated from a virus that had been preserved in the permafrost for thousand years.
Climate change was warming the Arctic at an alarming rate and thawing permafrost packed with animal and plant matter that had died thousands of years ago and froze before fully decomposing. Once this material warmed up and came in contact with sunlight and oxygen, it began to rot releasing billions of tons of carbon dioxide and methane gas into the atmosphere.
This was exacerbating global warming but not only did the permafrost keep carbon from escaping it kept microbes intact. Now these pathogens were awakened and one had already infected humanity and because it hadn't been around for a very long time human immune systems weren't prepared. Millions in Europe and Asia had already died, so many that it some countries the delivery of essential services like fuel and food had been disrupted further compromising the health of more people who then had fallen victim to the virus.
"So far there's only been a thirty-four confirmed cases reported in British Columbia and we're were optimistic that the steps we've taken will prevent the disease from reaching the pandemic proportions it has in other parts of the world."
"Let's hope she's right,' Aiya said.
"This will further exacerbate global supply chains," Shyloh said. In the not so distant past it had been the more profitable for multi-national corporations to pay the cost of shipping to markets while having goods produced in countries where labour was cheap and environmental standards non-existent. Now a lot of that labour was dead and imported stocks of everything including vehicle and machinery parts, electronics, pharmaceuticals and medical supplies were running out.
"This only strengthens our argument for self-sufficiency in all things," Aiya said.
In the long term she was right if there was a long term. These last two years had seen a cascading of global catastrophes including the increase in deadly heat episodes where temperatures reached triple digits in many major urban areas and stayed there for weeks killing hundreds of thousands from heat stroke. There'd been drought and crop failure in the mid-west of North America and the monsoons, which water the rice fields that produce the majority of the calories for the world, had been late, short and not as intense.
Food riots were killing thousands, toppling governments, throwing entire society's into chaos.
Shyloh's cell phone ran. It was Judith.
"Taalia's sick. My mother's taking her to the hospital."
"Is it the flu?"
"I'm stuck in Ottawa. They've stopped all domestic flights until they get a reading on the pandemic." Judith sounded panicked, which was almost as unsettling as the information she was conveying.
"Can you drive up to Kelowna and be with her?"
"Okay, good." Judith seemed relieved.
"I'll leave right away."
"Thank you, I'll come as soon as I can get a flight out."
"I'll call you with updates on her condition."
Shyloh heard a sob, then silence. "Judith?" He thought the call had been dropped.
"I won't forget this," she said.
Shyloh disconnected and told Aiya what was happening. He felt powerless and hated it, angry though he didn't know at who or what and unprepared despite having no idea what could have done to be ready for such an event. Was this fear?
"I'm coming with you," Aiya said.
Shyloh felt better–and grateful.
They arrived at the Kelowna General Hospital just after dinner.
Taalia had been placed in isolation and they had to wear protective gowns over their clothing and masks over their mouths.
Mrs. Wolfe sat near the head of the bed, she came to him when he entered.
"They called from pre-school. By the time I got her home she could hardly walk."
He should say something comforting but Shyloh didn't know what. Taalia lay with her head elevated on a large pillow. Her eyes were closed and sunken, pale skin flushed with fever, long blond hair pasted to her forehead with perspiration. He placed his hand on her cheek, it was hot like the sickness was burning her up inside.
"Daddy?" She'd never called him that. Right from the beginning he made it clear he was not her biological father. Shyloh said she should think of him as a friend.
"It's Shyloh. I'm here, Taalia." He reached down and took her tiny hand. She seemed comforted.
"Her temperature's one hundred and three and climbing," her grandmother said.
"What's the doctor say?"
"Keep her hydrated."
"Pray?" What good will that do? How many devastated parents right now were anguishing over the death of a child? Had prayer helped them? God wasn't listening or didn't care. Why should this child be any different?
Even though she was different–to him.
"I'll pray with you, Mrs. Wolfe." Aiya took her hand, they bowed their heads, and she murmured healing prayers in Muslim and Christian.
For Shyloh all the death and mayhem that was taking place in the ravaged parts of the world took on a new and terrible perspective. His emotional immunity had been breached, and no longer was he the dispassionate observer. It was happening to him and it wasn't interesting it was horrible, painful, unimaginable.
How could life change in an instant to become not worth living? That's how he felt, that life without this child would be unbearable.
"Shy?"
Aiya handed him a tissue. "You're crying."
"Hello, I'm Dr. Singh." A young man entered the room and went to the patient. He slipped a thermometer between Taalia's lips. While he waited for the results he lifted a limp wrist and took her pulse then pulled down the blanket and pressed a stethoscope to the child's chest. It heaved with irregular breaths.
"How is she, Dr. Singh?" Shyloh said.
"The disease hits hard and fast; a high fever accompanied by severe congestion with difficulty breathing as the virus attacks the lungs."
"The next few hours are critical. If she can stave off pneumonia, she should be better in a few days."
"What are her chances of doing that?" Shyloh wanted answers.
"About fifty-fifty."
"And if she contracts pneumonia?"
"This strain, more than any other I've seen, has the ability to overwhelm the immune system and enter the bloodstream spreading the virus and its toxins throughout the entire body. But let's not get ahead of ourselves," the doctor said. "It's just as likely she won't get pneumonia and she'll have a complete recovery."
"Of course," Aiya said. She appeared eager to end the conversation.
"But if not, septicaemia is very serious is it not?" Shyloh said. Not having all the information would not prevent it from happening, besides without it he wouldn't know the best course of action.
"When this occurs blood pressure drops, the heart weakens, and the patient spirals toward septic shock followed by multiple organ failure."
"Taalia dies?"
Mrs. Wolf gasped, as if mentioning the word somehow gave it permission to happen.
"Yes," the doctor said. "Taalia dies."
Dr. Singh was being paged. "I must go. Our worst case fears about the pandemic are being realized."
"Is there anything we can do?" There was no best course of action, except perhaps to plead.
The doctor looked at his watch. "Take her temperature every half hour." He went to the side table and took a thermometer out of the drawer. "If it goes above one hundred and four, give her a sponge bath using lukewarm water. I'll get a nurse to bring you what you need."
The doctor left and Aiya and Shyloh took up their respective positions on either side of the bed.
"Why don't you go home, Mrs. Wolfe?" Aiya said. "You look exhausted and we don't want you getting sick."
"No, I'll stay."
"Of course, but it might be better if we each get some rest, spell each other off," Aiya said. "It could take a while before she improves."
Mrs. Wolfe agreed. Shyloh asked her to try to get through to Judith. Cellphone networks were overwhelmed, and he'd given up trying.
Shyloh took his daughter's hand and placed it in his. Aiya stroked her cheek and hummed a lullaby.
Time passed. A nurse brought a large sponge and bowl and hospital staff set up a cot parallel to the bed. At about midnight Aiya laid down and fell asleep.
Shyloh dosed sitting up. At two in the morning he jolted awake. Taalia's arms and legs were jerking, white frothy saliva was leaking from the corners of her mouth and her fair skin was the color of a bruise.
"Aiya." Shyloh pressed the call button.
"What? What?"
"Taalia's having a seizure."
"What's her temperature?"
"I was just about to take it. Where's the nurse?"
"I'll go get help."
Taalia seemed to choking so Shyloh pulled the pillow away and turned her on her side. Saliva drained from her mouth and her breathing improved. The twitching and jerking stopped. Her color was returning to normal when Aiya rushed back in the room.
"No one's available."
"She's okay, it's over."
"Alhamdulillaah." Aiya started to weep.
"Go back outside, wash your hands and return with the mask over your mouth," Shyloh said.
When Aiya returned Shyloh had filled the plastic bowl with tepid water. "She needs a sponge bath."
"We don't need a reading to know it's too high. Here. take a sponge."
The seizures returned near dawn followed by another sponge bath. Taalia seemed no better, no worse, but Shyloh could feel her slipping deeper and further away, her life's energy dissipating.
Why had one small life become so important? The millions of other people dying, many just like this child, in other parts of the world hadn't moved Shyloh. A human die off could be considered a good thing, especially for those who survived. It meant less competition for diminishing resources.
As a child, his way of coping with his mother's murder was to carry on her work to bring about a better world so she would be proud of him, so others wouldn't suffer as he had. He'd formed the Triumvirate when he'd seen a greater potential to accomplish this objective by channeling the amazing talents of Aiya and Judith.
But the goal of achieving a better civilization was becoming the challenge of surviving the end of it. Fulfilling the pledge to his mother might become secondary to providing and protecting a haven for his people, his tribe, his family, Taalia.
It had all come down to her. If she died why bother?
About noon the following day Shyloh left Taalia's bedside to get some food for him and Aiya. The elevators weren't working, so he started down the three flights of stairs to the lobby that housed several concessions.
When he pushed open the fire door it banged into a gurney.
"Help me," whispered a frail, elderly man too weak to lift his head from a soiled pillow.
They had turned the lobby of hospital into a triage centre. Similar gurney's lined the walls as medical staff scurried from one to another. Armed guards were restricting entry at the front doors while dozens of new arrivals either sat outside on the curb or laid on the grass waiting to be processed or die, whichever came first.
Shyloh found a canteen, waited in line and was given two peanut butter sandwiches.
After assuring security his daughter was a patient, they allowed him return to her room.
"Hi." Taalia was sitting up in bed, smiling.
Shyloh stared at the frail youngster and the surge of joy made him dizzy. He'd been spared, and he a powerful need to express gratitude, to give thanks, but to whom, to what?
"Look at you," he said.
"Are those for me?" Taalia eyed the sandwiches.
Shyloh handed her one.
"Little bites," Aiya said. "We don't want it to upset your stomach." Aiya passed Shyloh a tissue.
"Why are you crying, Shy?" Taalia said.
"It's nothing," he said. He missed her calling him Daddy.
"What happened?" Shyloh said to Aiya as Taalia devoured the sandwich. When he'd left an hour ago, he wasn't sure she'd be alive when he returned.
"She chose life."
"As opposed to what?"
"Paradise." Aiya's conviction was palpable. At that moment Shyloh longed for that faith, that certainty. Good luck wasn't cutting it.
"I've talked to the nurse, and she's preparing the discharge papers," Aiya said. "They need the bed."
"What did Dr. Singh say."
"He's sick."
The nurse came in with the documents. "Both of you could still get sick, symptoms may not show up for a week. You need to go home and avoid contact with others, quarantine yourselves. Can you do that?"
"Yes." Shyloh couldn't wait to get out of the hospital. He signed the papers.
"Taalia will be weak and likely sleep a lot for a few days. Keep her well hydrated."
"Do all patients recover this quickly," Shyloh said. "It's almost seems like a miracle."
"Yes. You're either dead in a day or better in two or three."
"Let's just say you're better off taking your chances at home than coming back here."

Pentagon Drops Military Vax Mandate
News: US News
by Kim Tisor • ChurchMilitant.com • January 11, 2023
Jab is still recommended
WASHINGTON (ChurchMilitant.com) - Department of Defense officials are no longer requiring COVID shots for U.S. military personnel, but they're still recommending them.
U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin
On Tuesday, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin rescinded the August 2021 mandate requiring troops to be vaccinated against COVID-19. The memo still encourages, however, those who defend the country to subject themselves to the controversial vax.
"The Department will continue to promote and encourage COVID-19 vaccination for all Service members," Austin stated. "Vaccination enhances operational readiness and protects the Force," he maintained.
Austin was forced to rescind the 2021 mandate after Biden signed the National Defense Authorization Act last month. The defense spending bill contained a provision requiring the administration to repeal the mandate for military personnel.
"The Pentagon has RESCINDED their COVID vaccine mandate. This is a HUGE victory," tweeted U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., following the DOD's announcement. The newly reelected congresswoman continued, "Now, it's time to make it right for the people whose lives were destroyed by this disgraceful mandate!"

— Lauren Boebert (@laurenboebert) January 10, 2023
Various reports indicate the military discharged nearly 8,500 of its 1.3 million service members for refusing the jab, while thousands more sought medical and religious exemptions. It's unclear what, if any, avenues will be offered for those who were honorably discharged to return to active duty — assuming they're even interested in returning.
What America's diminishing trust in the military and woeful recruiting numbers make clear is that the Defense Department needs to consider how best to attract and retain quality service members.
"The Army is facing its most challenging recruiting environment since the all-volunteer force's inception in 1973," revealed Brian McGovern, deputy director of public affairs for U.S. Army Recruiting Command.
The military discharged nearly 8,500 of its 1.3 million service members for refusing the jab.
Last fall, McGovern told Deseret News that low recruitment was due, in part, to only 9% of the eligible population wanting to serve — the lowest it's been since 2007. That begs the question: Why don't those who are fit to serve want to?
Critics speculate that it has to do with the military becoming too woke and imposing so-called vaccines that lack adequate testing.
News Report: Military vs. Mandates
Ahead of the NDAA's passage, a handful of Republican senators argued that Austin's 2021 mandate lacked common sense: "I want to urge DOD to change your policy. It literally is insane, I think, to drive men and women out of the military at a time [when] we have recruiting shortages because of a refusal to take this vaccine," hammered Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., at a November press briefing.
Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., also questioned the wisdom of pushing the vax: "At a time when the military is struggling to meet their targets for recruitment, the Biden administration is firing soldiers we invested in and trained."
There are those in the ranks, however, who'd prefer to retain the mandate. Prior to Austin rescinding it, U.S. Navy Secretary Carlos Del Toro expressed concern that unvaxxed military personnel could create movement limitations during foreign port visits.
The Biden administration is firing soldiers we invested in and trained.
"Unquestionably, it will create almost two classes of citizens in our services: those that can't deploy and those that can deploy. And that creates all sorts of problems," Del Toro remarked last month.
Gen. David Petraeus (Ret.)
During December's Aspen Security Forum in Washington, D.C., retired Gen. David Petraeus questioned why any unformed man or woman would refuse the "FDA-approved" vax, alleging it improves readiness. He added that the military "has always taken its shots."
The answer to Petraeus' question lies, perhaps, with the jab's questionable safety record. Testifying at a Capitol Hill roundtable in 2021, Army Lt. Col. Theresa Long, a flight surgeon who holds a master's degree in public health, stated that vaccinated pilots could die midair from heart failure. Long revealed that she had to ground several pilots who developed myocarditis after receiving the mRNA jab. She says that she warned military leaders and asked that they inform soldiers of the apparent risks, but she claims her concerns were ignored.
Military men and women who worry about the safety of COVID so-called vaccines can rest easy for now — at least until the next predicted pandemic.

More than 7,000 area third, fourth and fifth graders will get to experience the Evansville Philharmonic Orchestra first hand this week through the organization's Helen M. McKinney Young People's Concerts.
Students from 65 Tri-State schools will fill The Victory for concerts Wednesday through Friday and listen to the full orchestra perform several classical works. The artwork of the 2016 'Symphony of Color' student art contest will be on display during the program as well.
This year's theme is 'Musical Moods,' allowing the students to experience how different elements such as dynamics, tempo and instrumentation affect the moods created by the pieces of music, said Summer Bennett, director of Education at the Philharmonic.
'For a lot of these kids, it's the first time they are going to experience a full orchestra in a theater like The Victory,' Bennett said. 'These opportunities don't come around often for many of these students, and it's a way for them to get the bug for orchestra music and hopefully spark something within them to pursue music in some way.'
The pieces selected for the concerts help illustrate the theme this year with the orchestra performing selections from Rossini's Overture to 'The Barber of Seville,' Grieg's 'Morning Mood,' 'The Comedian's Galop' by Dmitri Kabalevsky, the first movement from Dvorak's violin concerto in A minor — performed by the 215 Young Artist Award Winner Spencer Sharp, the fourth and fifth movements of Beethoven's Symphony No. 6 and conclude with Rossini's 'Storm & Finale' from the William Tell Overture.
In addition to the concerts, the Philharmonic partnered with The Da Vinci Institute and the Children's Museum of Evansville to offer students some post-concert activities that integrate the arts with STEM subjects, also known as science, technology, engineering and math. Immediately following two of the concerts, registered students, about 200 each day, will head to cMoe to participate in about 90 minutes of activities created by middle school students from McGary Middle School and the Evansville Day School. All of the activities are based on the connection between music and STEM.
When considering the activities to create for students, Jane Gilbert, who teaches drama and language arts at McGary, said her students wanted to find an interactive way to illustrate the science behind how music works. Her students discovered that they could explain the way sound waves work.
The 12 students from McGary created two tables that help illustrate the way sound and light waves work. The tables have strings stretched across them that students can pluck to see how the sound and light waves move, Gilbert said. The light wave table has strobe light strings so students can see the vibrations as well.
Gilbert, whose teaching at McGary incorporates STEM with the creativity of the arts into subjects such as math and science that offer critical thinking and problem solving skills offers students more opportunity to succeed in school and expand their knowledge base creating STEAM. She added that having her students teaching their peers during the activities is showing them how to apply their knowledge in a tangible way.
'I've seen my students become more disciplined and focused in the classroom because they are finding elements of every subject that they are passionate about because of STEAM integration,' Gilbert said. 'The students need the creativity and the critical thinking skills together. Having the orchestra, cMoe and The Da Vinci Institute help facilitate even more students in this kind of learning is a great way for students to see that the arts and sciences can be combined and equally enjoyed.'
The Young People's Concerts have become a long-standing tradition for the orchestra and area schools. Alfred Savia, music director at the Philharmonic, said he regularly sees adults remembering their first time at the orchestra being a transformative experience for them. He added that the combination of the orchestra's performance with activities with other organizations has allowed the concerts to expand its reach throughout the community as well.
'Having an intercurricular experience can only help us expand the love of classical music and the orchestra throughout the region,' Savia said. 'The students are getting a complete education of not only the music itself, but how it works from a technical standpoint. They are seeing that the arts is an integral part in education.'

January 2012: JPMorgan Asset Management India Pvt. Ltd. (JPMAMIPL) in association with ValueNotes announced the findings of the ninth wave of the Investment Confidence Index (ICI) in India. The J.P. Morgan Asset Management – ValueNotes Investment Confidence Index (ICI), which was launched in August 2009, is published on a quarterly basis. ICI captures the confidence of the retail and corporate investor sector as well as financial advisors on the Indian economic and investment environment.
The ebbing Investment Confidence Index (125) showed no signs of revival in the current quarter and remained almost flat between July 2011 and December 2011. After witnessing a series of highs and lows over five quarters, the ICI has declined continuously over the past year.
Although the overall investment sentiment currently appears subdued, the optimism about global and Indian economic growth is improving marginally. Most interestingly, corporate, advisors and HNIs are now more optimistic than they were in July 2011, even as the mass of retail investors have become more pessimistic.
The survey findings indicate that retail investor confidence has faded in the last few months. Investor confidence (132) faltered 28 points since September 2010 (160) reaching its all time low. India Inc. (115) and the advisor community (127) are marginally more optimistic compared to their July 2011 lows. Among the three advisor categories, bank confidence (133) recovered by 18 points from July 2011, while IFA confidence (119) plummeted 17 points to touch its lowest.
ValueNotes, an independent market research company, was commissioned by J.P. Morgan Asset Management to conduct the survey. The ICI was developed by interviewing 1,635 retail, 50 corporate treasuries and 282 advisors. The survey took place in November 2011 in eight cities across India: Mumbai, Delhi/NCR, Kolkata, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Pune and Hyderabad.
The key objective of the ICI is to quantify confidence in the investment environment among investors and advisors. The survey also attempts to study investment behaviour and sentiment based on key factors such as the improvement in the Indian and global economic environment, general investment atmosphere, expectation of growth in investment portfolios and others. Additionally, ICI analyses the short term and long term changes in investment behaviour and outlook every quarter, from an investor and advisor standpoint.
The J.P. Morgan Asset Management – Valuenotes ICI score is derived from responses to the following questions posed to all target segments:
The likelihood of the Indian economic situation improving from current levels in the next six months.
The likelihood of an improvement in the general investment market environment and atmosphere from current levels in the coming six months.
The possibility of the global economic environment improving from current levels in the coming six months.
The likelihood of the BSE Sensex increasing in the next six months.
The prospect of your / your clients' investment portfolio appreciating in the coming six months.
Expected increase or decrease in the amount of investment and/or increase in mutual fund inflows in the coming six months.
Responses to these 6 questions also form the basis for arriving at the Retail Investor Confidence Index, Corporate Confidence Index and the Advisor Confidence Index which are sub-indices of the Investment Confidence Index. At any given point, the indices can move from `0' to `200', with `0' depicting the most negative outlook; `200' depicting full and absolute confidence and `100' showing a neutral position.
Mr. Nandkumar Surti, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of J.P. Morgan Asset Management said, "The weak investment sentiment is probably a reflection of volatility surrounding the country's macroeconomic environment. The Sensex downslide, Rupee depreciation, a ballooning fiscal deficit, high inflation rates, combined with rising global uncertainty triggered by deepening of the Eurozone crisis have hurt investment sentiment. However, the optimism about global and Indian economic growth is improving marginally. Retail investment activity in mutual funds has picked up 9 percentage points from last quarter too."
Mr. Arun Jethmalani, Managing Director, ValueNotes commented, "Inflation and global uncertainty have pulled the investment sentiment down. Survey findings indicate that inflation concerns have dropped significantly among corporates and advisors, possibly because of reports about stabilisation of inflation rates. Although sentiment surrounding the Indian economic situation and investment environment has improved since the last quarter, it is still weak in comparison to last year's readings."
The investment sentiment of investors with smaller wallet sizes (INR 2 to 5 lakhs) has fallen the most, while it has improved among HNIs.
Retail investors in Hyderabad (152) are relatively more upbeat than their counterparts across the other seven cities. Ahmedabad investors (110) were the least optimistic.
IFAs in Mumbai (106) continue to be the most sceptical, while Delhi/NCR IFAs (139) are the most confident.
Indian investors and advisors appear unaffected by the recent volatility in stock markets. 48% of retail investors and 76% of advisors expect the benchmark Index to trade between 17,000 and 20,000 in June 2012.
Confidence within young investors (age 22-25 years) has witnessed a 36-point fall since last year.
Inflation and global uncertainty have been voted as the two most negative economic indicators. However, inflation concerns have dropped significantly among corporates and advisors, possibly because of reports about stabilisation of inflation rates.
Majority of retail investors in Pune and Mumbai expect the Sensex to rebound from its current level and trade above 18,000 in June 2012.
Indian investors and advisors were an optimistic lot in July 2011. 67% of them expected the Sensex to trade between 19,000 and 20,000 in December 2011.
Retail investment activity in mutual funds has picked up 9 percentage points from last quarter to reach 70%, while in stocks it fell 6 percentage points. With falling markets, risk-averse investors show lesser preference for stocks (from 70% to 56%) but increased preference for mutual funds (from 44% to 68%) since March 2011.
Rising gold prices appear to have affected investment activity in gold. As a result, percentage of investors investing in this asset class has fallen 19 percentage points since December 2010.

Fully supporting the ongoing fast-unto-death by Gujjar-Bakarwal Students Welfare Association, who are demanding establishing of Gojri and Pahari research centre at Jammu University, Progressive Students Association (PSA) held a protest at the university main gate.
They shouted slogans in favour of the demand of establishing the research centre, which was approved in 2008 by the university council meeting. Later, the protesters moved towards the V-C secretariat and held a protest there and were joined by nearly 1,000 students.
PSA Jammu University unit vice-president MS Bhatti said, "From the very first day, we have supported the hunger strike and we hail the demand of establishing the Gojri and Pahari research centre."
He said it is the duty of the state to promote and preserve local languages, especially in the university to promote and preserve cultural heritage.
He added that J&K has population of approximately 20 lakh Gujjar and Bakarwals and promoting their space in institutions of higher learning is of utmost importance.
"This will encourage inclusive model of education where other market-oriented courses are dominating higher education," he said, adding that the PSA will struggle for promotion of local languages.
A spokesperson, Marvi Salathia, lambasted the vice-chancellor's excuse of lack of funds for establishment of the said centre. She said the V-C is promoting neo-liberal agenda in higher education. Their keen interest in promotion of market-oriented courses and reluctance towards such centres is clearly indicate that whose interests they are serving.
Pertinently, students on hunger strike are not even consuming water. On Tuesday night, students came out of hostels and protested all night in front of the V-C's residence. The medical condition of two students Tanzim and Talib Hussain has deteriorated. Tanzin was shifted to hospital on Wednesday night.

Kinsey Millhone has the toughest case of her life ahead of her: her own past. When a storage space scavenger calls wanting to know if she'd like to purchase a box of her personal belongings found in an abandoned storage space, Kinsey is shocked to discover that the belongings are really hers -- the remnants of what she left behind when she left ex-husband Mickey Magruder, 15 years ago. Kinsey split after Mickey was accused of murder and he asked her to fake an alibi for him. The accusation got Mickey thrown off the force, ruined his marriage, and pretty much destroyed what was left of his life. The box contains a real bombshell: a letter proving that Mickey really did have an alibi for the night in question. Although Mickey told Kinsey at the time that he was innocent of the beating of a suspect, she never quite believed him. Determined to find out the truth about what happened 15 years ago, Kinsey sets out to solve a murder case that a lot of people would rather not see reopened.
Although Kinsey Milhone has had an amazing number of adventures, throughout it all, her creator has remained relatively silent on the subject of our favorite p.i.'s past. O is for Outlaw is a fascinating foray into the life of Kinsey Milhone when she was young and impressionable. Grafton outdoes herself with beautiful, clean prose and characters that are so real and finely drawn you feel as if you're in the middle of the action. If you haven't read the fourteen Kinsey Milhone novels which have come before, don't worry. O is for Outlaw is a great jumping off spot into one of the best p.i. series ever written. As for Millhone fans -- it's Nirvana time. Highly Recommended.

Welcome to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) San Francisco Field Division. Representing one of the twenty-five ATF Field Divisions in the United States, our geographic area of responsibility encompasses Northern California, from the Oregon border to Bakersfield, and the State of Nevada. Our dedicated workforce is comprised of special agents, investigators, forensic auditors, technicians, support staff and contract workers.
ATF is a Federal law enforcement agency within the Department of Justice that is committed to reducing violent crime in our communities. Our close relationships with our State and local law partners include collaborative efforts with police, sheriff and fire investigators, homicide investigators and local and regional bomb squads. These partnerships have created a force multiplier that has proven to be highly successful in reducing violent crime. We protect our neighborhoods from violent criminals, criminal organizations, the illegal use and trafficking of firearms, the illegal use and storage of explosives, acts of arson and bombings, acts of terrorism, and the illegal diversion of alcohol and tobacco products.
Explosives and arson enforcement is an integral part of ATF's overall violent crime reduction strategy. ATF special agents, certified explosives specialists, explosives enforcement officers, certified fire investigators, and forensic specialists are prepared to respond to any explosive or fire scene and routinely work with the local first responders to process the scene, recover, examine and analyze evidence, conduct follow up investigation, and provide expert testimony in court.

ATF's forensic laboratories were the first Federal laboratories to achieve accreditation in 1984 by the American Society of Crime Lab Directors/Laboratory Accreditation Board (ASCLD/LAB). Achieving ASCLD/LAB (ISO) accreditation is a rigorous process for forensic laboratories, requiring extensive review of laboratory examination and documentation procedures used in the examination of evidence.
The men and women of ATF are proud to serve you and our goal of reducing violent crime and protecting our Nation is ever present. If you have a question or have information that may assist us in our mission, please contact us at (925) 557-2800.

Living with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is not easy and that's exactly what any person with this condition will tell you.
This condition is also known as mucous colitis, spastic colon, spastic constipation and variations of these, but IBS is the preferred term these days.
Naturally, symptoms vary depending upon the person. However, even just having one of the following symptoms is likely to be at the least annoying and at worst, disabling.

SCHUMER & CO, SLOPPING AWAY AT THE TROUGH
Democrats Split Over Bill Affecting Backers
Tax Measure Targets Hedge Funds
By Jonathan Weisman
Washington Post Staff Writer Wednesday, November 7, 2007; Page A01
In early June, as the Senate Finance Committee began examining how a new breed of Wall Street titan could be paying a special low tax rate on executives' salaries, one of the richest of them, hedge fund manager Steven A. Cohen of SAC Capital Advisors, cut the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee a check for $28,500.
Just days later, with DSCC Chairman Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) equivocating on legislation to raise taxes on publicly traded equity firms, hedge fund giant James H. Simons, who earned $1.7 billion last year at his Renaissance Technologies LLC, donated another $28,500 to the DSCC.
By late July, Schumer was off the fence -- and on the side of the hedge funds and private-equity firms in opposing the Democratic legislation.
. . . The measure has deeply divided Democrats, pitting a rank and file that has railed for years against inequities in the tax code against the party's money men, who are reluctant to bite the hand that has generously fed them.
Interesting that the Washington Post nonchalantly mentions elected members of the Senate as reluctant to bite the hand that has generously fed them and sees no conflict of interest (much less crime) in the statement.
Schumer is merely the most recent and most obvious of the sell-outs.
I wonder if (ever) the ACLU or some other quasi-public minded legal entity will sue a campaign contributor for interfering with the legislative process--AND WIN!
Not bloody likely--and thus the new Democratic broom that proposes to sweep its way through the Congress will merely follow the money-grubbing, sleazy, totally corrupt policies of Schumer, Pelosi, Reid, Feinstein, Lieberman and the associated garbage-collectors we send to Congress.
Forget the war--the war is a long-lost cause.
The March on Washington that is most imperative is a protest against paid-off, paid-up, government for sale.
NOTHING further can be accomplished until this travesty against honest governance is thrown to the ground and a stake driven through its heart.
