It is a sociological cliche [sic] that racial antagonism is intensified in periods of economic distress. . . . Because race is an important consideration in the competition for jobs, we can expect that whites and Negroes have attempted to shift the burden of the depression upon each other, but that as usual the dominant group has been more successful.
This statement was written in 1940 in reference to race and class during the Great Depression; however, the pattern it describes is just as clear today in American society. The overall unemployment rate has been extremely high over the last few years. The average unemployment rate climbed from 5.8 percent in 2008 to 9.6 percent in 2010. Throughout the "Great Recession," the unemployment rate for the black community has been twice that of the population as a whole. In many black communities, unemployment has hit what some consider "crisis proportions." It is likely that the true unemployment rate is even higher than officially reported.
The unemployment disparity between the black community and the general community is not surprising because it reflects the status quo existing long before the recession began. Several factors, such as racial discrimination and access to education, are offered to explain the gap. The country's desire to find a solution to fix the current unemployment problem has exposed a hiring practice with the potential to greatly exacerbate the already disturbing disparity between unemployment in the black community and unemployment in the overall community--discrimination against the unemployed.
The controversy of discrimination against the unemployed was brought to public attention in 2010 when a recruiter hired by Sony Ericsson to staff its Atlanta headquarters stated in a job posting, "[n] o unemployed candidates will be considered at all." After this incident garnered wide public attention, the National Employment Law Project (NELP) published a report in July of 2011 reviewing the most prominent online job-listing websites over a four-week period. NELP researchers found that there were over 150 employment ads listed on Internet job sites that stated, "unemployed need not apply," or listed "currently employed" under required job qualifications. Although the study done by NELP was fairly limited in scope, it nevertheless showed that "small, medium and large employers, for white collar, blue collar, and service sector jobs, at virtually every skill level" excluded the unemployed. Because this practice is used across a large segment of the job market and there are record numbers of unemployed people in the United States today, the proper way to resolve this problem is the subject of great debate. Lost in the debate, however, is sufficient focus on how to remedy the disparate impact these discriminatory hiring practices have on the African American community.
The public response has generally been outrage, especially among job seekers. Lawmakers have responded by enacting legislation to stop such practices in hiring advertisements. For example, New Jersey enacted a law banning language that discriminates against the unemployed in job advertisements, and several states have similar legislation pending. President Obama also included a measure banning such advertisements and creating a civil cause of action against employers who discriminate based on employment status in his 2011 Jobs Act.
In 2011, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) released a report showing that job hiring discrimination complaints reached a record high. This report indicates that "[t] he . . . [EEOC] received just shy of 100,000 charges from citizens during the 2011 fiscal year, the most logged in a single year in the agency's 46-year history . . . ." This report does not include claims related to discrimination on the basis of employment status. Employment discrimination experts attribute the increase in discrimination to the strained economy, claiming "less scrupulous employers have more opportunities to discriminate in their hiring." It is clear that even if employers discriminating based on employment status affect a small percentage of jobseekers, taken in the aggregate with the heightened discrimination related to the economy, it is a serious issue that must be addressed.
Discrimination against the unemployed is having a negative impact on the job-seeking community in general. However, it is having an extremely adverse impact on the black community. There are many proposed solutions to this problem, although few propose to address the effect of the practice in the black community. These several prominent proposed remedies can be divided into two categories: private suits and legislative remedies. Private suits describe the proposal to create a cause of action that would allow applicants to bring lawsuits for discrimination based on unemployment status. Legislative remedies refer to proposed remedies such as hiring tax incentives and government-sponsored work training programs.
This Comment argues that a private cause of action is an inadequate and unrealistic remedy to address the problem of unemployment discrimination.

Ohio Could Soon See 'Stand Your Ground' Measure
11:01am Monday, February 27, 2006
The Hannah Report
The coming weeks will tell whether a national trend toward 'stand your ground' self-defense legislation goes on to shape debate in the Ohio primary race and the remaining 126th General Assembly. Ohio is not among the 22 states presently weighing measures that relieve potential victims of the "duty to retreat," a position upheld by many state supreme courts, and that instead empower citizens to defend themselves and others with deadly force, both in the home and in the marketplace. Such a measure is already in place in Florida, and is currently under review in all states contiguous to Ohio.
Initial efforts in Florida have been supported by the National Rifle Association (NRA) and opposed by the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, named after the former press secretary to Ronald Reagan who was injured in an attack on the president. Stand-your-ground laws generally allow individuals to vigorously defend themselves from a perceived life-threatening situation, and in some cases grant the apparent victim criminal immunity from collateral injury to bystanders.
Click on the "Read More..." link below for more.
Ohio Legislative Liaison John Hohenwarter of the NRA had followed its endorsement of Sen. Tim Grendell's (R-Chesterland) attorney general bid Thursday by saying concealed carry measures were only one of the issues to be brought out in the senator's primary race against Auditor Betty Montgomery. He explained the NRA's support of stand-your-ground legislation Friday. "There's a reason you're seeing this legislation introduced and passed in a number of states," he said. "The judicial system has moved over the years toward an erosion of victim's rights. When your life is threatened, most people are not going to stand and reflect on whether they have a duty to retreat."
While Ohio is not officially on the map yet with similar legislation, Hohenwarter suggested a bill may not be too far in the offing. "I've gotten some calls from legislators interested in introducing a bill," he noted. "I would think you may see something in the next couple of weeks." He was less willing, however, to link stand-your-ground measures to the Grendell-Montgomery debate, one the NRA says the senator wins hands down. "Whether this is a new issue that goes into the primary race, I don't know," said Hohenwarter, though he acknowledged Grendell was an enthusiastic supporter of stand-your-ground legislation. "But this issue really hasn't been that controversial, because I think everyone believes people have a right to defend themselves."
That confidence may in fact be a matter of policy debate, as the Brady Campaign and others fear such laws will only encourage more gunplay in urban areas. Hohenwarter rejected the idea, however, that stand-your ground laws will serve as a cover for willing combatants in a gang conflict or similar confrontations -- where someone has to pull the first weapon, and someone else eventually responds. "You would still have to prove in court that your life was in danger," said Hohenwarter. "At any rate, the intent of such a law is not to have people going around looking for trouble. It is meant to give law-abiding citizens the power to protect themselves and their families."
Buckeye Firearms Association Chairman Jim Irvine and Legislative Chair Ken Hanson met with a State Representative's office several months ago about this and have continued to work with the Ohio legislature as they draft this important legislation. Please continue to check this website for updates.

Keros Therapeutics presents preclinical data from its KER-012 program at the American Heart Association 2022 Scientific Sessions
Keros Therapeutics, Inc.
LEXINGTON, Mass., Nov. 7, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Keros Therapeutics, Inc. ("Keros") (Nasdaq: KROS), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of novel treatments for patients suffering from hematologic, pulmonary, and cardiovascular disorders with high unmet medical need, today announced the results of a preclinical study of an investigational form of KER-012 ("RKER-012") in cardiac and pulmonary pathology in a model of rat established pulmonary artery hypertension ("PAH"), which were presented at the American Heart Association Scientific Sessions 2022 on Monday, November 7, 2022.
"We are pleased to have reported encouraging preclinical data from our KER-012 program showing that RKER-012 treatment led to improved heart and lung function in a rat model of PAH. This cardiopulmonary improvement was associated with reductions in inflammatory and fibrotic markers, including TGFβ-1, which is the most potent driver of fibrosis in the transforming growth factor beta ("TGF-β") family of ligands," he said. Jasbir S. Seehra. , Ph.D., Chairman and CEO of Keros. "We believe these data further validate that KER-012 has the potential to treat not only PAH but also other inflammatory and fibrotic diseases of the heart and lung."
RKER-012 improved cardiopulmonary function in a rat model of PAH.
Improvement in cardiopulmonary function in a rat model of pulmonary arterial hypertension observed with RKER-012, a novel type II activin receptor ligand trap, was associated with reduced markers of inflammation and fibrosis in the right ventricle.
Keros combined administration of SUGEN5416, a vascular endothelial growth factor 1/2 receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, with exposure to chronic hypoxia to induce PAH in adult rats. RKER-012 was tested in this SUGEN/hypoxia ("SH") rat model of PAH. SH-treated adult rats received vehicle or 10 mg/kg RKER-012 twice weekly for three weeks. Rats maintained under normal oxygen conditions ("normoxic controls") received vehicle alone.
Consistent with the development of heart and lung failure, vehicle-treated SH rats exhibited increases in Fulton's index (p≤0.0001), which measures right ventricular ("RV") enlargement and systolic pulmonary arterial pressure (" sPAP") (p ≤0.0001) relative to normoxic controls. In SH rats, RKER-012 treatment significantly attenuated the increase in Fulton index (p≤0.001) and prevented an increase in sPAP (p≤0.0001) compared to vehicle treatment.
RV from vehicle-treated SH rats exhibited significant increases in gene expression of several known drivers of inflammation compared to normoxic controls. Treatment with RKER-012 prevented the increase of these markers in the RV of SH rats.
Fibrosis biomarker expression was elevated in the RV of vehicle-treated SH rats compared to normoxic controls. Relative to vehicle-treated SH rats, RKER-012-treated SH rats had significantly reduced expression of most of these fibrosis biomarkers.
About KER-012
KER-012 is designed to bind to and inhibit the signaling of TGF-β ligands that promote smooth muscle hypertrophy and fibrosis, including activin A, activin B, and myostatin (GDF8). Keros believes that KER-012 has the potential to increase the signaling of bone morphogenic protein ("BMP") pathways through this inhibition of activin A and activin B signaling and consequently treat diseases such as PAH that are associated with reduced BMP signaling. KER-012 is being developed for the treatment of PAH and for the treatment of cardiovascular disorders associated with cardiac hypertrophy.
About Keros Therapeutics, Inc.

Home Shooting Camera Movement
Camera movement: 11 techniques you should master
A static frame is not only boring to your audience; by keeping the camera still, you're also missing out on one of the most fundamental storytelling tools in cinema — movement.
Kyle Cassidy
Experimenting is half the fun of making videos, and coming up with a new move that wows viewers while helping to get your story across is extremely satisfying.
Filmmakers use terms like pan and tilt to effectively communicate between director and cinematographer
The basic camera movement techniques include the tilt, pan, zoom, pedestal, dolly and truck
Use all the basic moves together to create rich, complex cinematography
Early movie cameras were limited by their size and weight. And by early, we mean for the first 150 years of cinema. Throughout the golden age of Hollywood, a camera was a device often ridden across train tracks by a camera operator and a focus puller. Camera movement was bound by this technology, but that didn't stop cinematographers from moving their cameras — along tracks or with cranes — the smallest amount of movement required an astounding amount of preparation, planning, dedication and off-camera assistance.
Here's French filmmaker Jean Cocteau filming "The Testament of Orpheus" in 1959. He didn't always dress like that; he was also acting in the film.

The basic camera moves were all developed in this age of cinema; cameras could move up, down, left or right. They could tilt or pan if you had the proper mount, and zoom if you had a zoom lens.
Every time we learn a new craft or skill, we need to learn the basic moves or techniques that define that function.
Beginning to learn to shoot video, whether for a hobby or a budding business, requires some knowledge of the basic moves that define good video shooting practices. Camera movement is an essential piece of cinematography, as it helps tell the story.
A camera exists in a three-dimensional world and can move anywhere along the XYZ axis.
A camera exists in a three-dimensional world and can move anywhere along the XYZ axis. This means it can move up, down, left, right, as well as forward and backward. So that the director and camera operator can effectively communicate, there are names for each of these moves. This means the director can give a series of verbal instructions, and the camera operator knows exactly what to do without anybody having to get out and draw diagrams.
The basic camera movement techniques
Let's look at the basic camera movements that are used in every video and film production, from those used by your wedding videographers to those used by Spielberg himself. Our pictorial examples show a videographer using these moves with a hand-held technique, but they apply best to tripod and dolly use.
Moving the camera's lens up or down while keeping its horizontal axis constant. Nod your head up and down—this is tilting.
Why do this? Tilting is the fastest way to get from low to high, or the other way around, when you want to show two things, though not necessarily at the same time. You might start focused in on a hand holding a bloody knife and then tilt up to reveal … Macbeth!
Above is a portrayal of what it looks like to tilt down
This is an image of what it looks like to tilt middle
Moving the camera lens to one side or another. Look to your left, then look to your right — that's panning.
Why do this? You might pan across the audience at a wedding to show all the people there. You might pan from one character to someone who walks through the door to elevate the tension that wouldn't exist with a fast cut.
This is one camera move that most people are probably familiar with. It involves changing the focal length of the lens to make the subject appear closer or further away in the frame. Most video cameras today have built-in zoom features. Some have manual zooms as well, and many have several zoom speeds. This camera movement technique is one of the most frequently-used camera moves and one of the most overused. Use it carefully.
Why do this? It is the easiest way to get from far to close or the other way around. You might start with a wide shot of a concert to set the stage and then zoom in to show one of the performers.
Moving the camera up or down without changing its vertical or horizontal axis. A camera operator can do two types of pedestals: pedestal up means "move the camera up;" pedestal down means "move the camera down." You are not tilting the lens up, rather you are moving the entire camera up. Imagine your camera is on a tripod and you're raising or lowering the tripod head. This is exactly where the term comes from.
Why do this? When pedestaling, you usually want to maintain the camera to subject distance, so you might start on a person leaning up against a wall, and then pedestal up, and up, and up, and up until the camera gets to Spider-Man, clinging to the fourth story of a building and creeping up it. Or, you might pedestal from a bride and groom's hands up to their faces.
Here's what it looks like to pedestal up
This is what it looks like to pedestal middle
Finally, this is what it looks like to pedestal down
This is a motion towards or motion from. The name comes from the old "dolly tracks" that used to be laid down for the heavy camera to move along — very much like railroad tracks — in the days before Steadicams got so popular. The phrase dolly-in means a step towards the subject with the camera, while dolly-out means to step backward with the camera, keeping the zoom the same. Zooming the camera changes the focal length of the lens, which can introduce wide-angle distortion or changes in the apparent depth of field. For this reason, it's often preferable to dolly than zoom.
Why do this? A perfect example of this move in cinema history is Alfred Hitchcock's long dolly shot at the end of "Frenzy." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRfbuQgJsjY
The camera starts inside a house and then dollies backward, down a staircase, out into a street and then off into the city. What does this tell us? That while something extremely important happened, it's just one story in a world of stories. Hitchcock's shot, with a gigantic camera and a huge crew, frantically moving dolly tracks out of the shot as the camera moved backward was groundbreaking in its day, but with today's lightweight cameras it could be done by a single camera operator.
This is what it looks like to start the movement called dolly forward
Dolly forward 2
Trucking is like dollying, but it involves motion left or right. The term "truck left" means "move the camera physically to the left while maintaining its perpendicular relationship." This is not to be confused with a pan, where the camera remains firmly on its axis while the lens turns to one direction or the other. You might truck left to stay with a pedestrian as she walks down a street rather than using a pan, which would show her back after she passed the camera.
Why do this? You'd truck if you want your camera to subject distance to stay the same. For example, you might truck the camera parallel to a person walking down the street to keep them in the frame. Lots of trucking in movies is done from the window of an actual truck. So this isn't a bad way to remember it. In the training montage in the 1976 Best Picture Academy Award Winner, Rocky, directed by John G. Avildsen, there's a truck shot—from a truck—following the titular character along the waterfront as he runs. The trucking shot allows the viewer to stay with Rocky and see how fast he's actually going.
Rocky running along the waterfront.
The fancy camera movement techniques
Now that you understand the basics, here are a few more advanced camera movement techniques. Some of these usually require the use of a steady device and one or two crew members to execute smoothly.
Handheld shooting
Sometimes the action is moving too quickly or too unpredictably for the camera to be on a tripod. This calls for making the camera more mobile and able to follow the action of a scene. Most times, the camera will simply be held by the operator, who will then employ a number of basic camera moves by moving the feet, dollying in and out, trucking in one direction or another, tilting, panning, zooming, and performing combinations of all of these.
Why do this? Handheld shooting can be very bouncy, giving the viewer a sometimes subtle feeling that they're watching news or a documentary. For reference, check out the handheld shooting in the 2008 horror flick Cloverfield; the goal of this isn't to be fancy, but rather to make us believe the movie was shot by an amateur (and is therefore real): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GyymwE4LLs
Floating cam or stabilized shot
The Steadicam was invented in 1971 by Philadelphia native Garrett Brown. Famously used in the jogging sequence in "Rocky" and extensively with exceptional effect in the Kubrick masterpiece, "The Shining." It uses a series of counterweights — and gyroscopes on more-expensive models — to keep a handheld camera's motion very smooth. Although the term "Steadicam" is used often, this is a trademark name belonging to the Merlin company.
A more modern alternative to the sled-and-vest set up popularized by the Steadicam and GlideCam is the 3-axis motorized gimbal. When gimbals like the Freefly MoVI M5 and DJI Ronin came out, they offered an affordable, versatile alternative to larger stabilizing rigs. Today motorized gimbals are everywhere.
Why use it? A Steadicam or 3-axis gimbal gives you the freedom of shooting handheld while keeping your shot perfectly stable, eliminating the distracting shake that often occurs when your camera is unsupported. Here's Garret Brown's famous Steadicam shot of the little boy riding the Big Wheel from Stanley Kubrik's 1980 masterpiece The Shining: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cy7ztJ3NUMI
Crane/jib
A crane can be used to lift a camera—and operator, if it's big enough—from low to high shooting positions. Less expensive jibs can support the weight of a camera and lift it several feet off of the ground. Sometimes a crane will be called a boom, but the boom term usually applies to the device that holds a microphone aloft. For an extreme version of this elevated angle, consider using a drone to capture an aerial perspective.
Why use it? You want to show things from a different angle. One example is the crane shot at the end of Robert Zemeckis' 1985 "Back to the Future" where genius inventor Dr. Emmet Brown, played by Christopher Lloyd shows off his new and improved Time Machine, built out of a Delorean, and takes off down the road—and as the camera cranes up, it starts to fly showing that in The Future, where we're going– cars travel in three dimensions.
The even crazier camera movement techniques
Spinning your camera around on a string? What do you do when you have zero budget but a really small and cheap camera? If you're really clever you invent a new camera move and build a music video around it. Indie musicians Matt & Kim attached a GoPro to a homemade stabilizing fin, put it at the end of a piece of rope and swung it around their heads recording at 240 frames per second. The results are amazing.
Why use it? You're a genius with no budget for equipment. Check out Matt & Kim's Video for Let's Run Away.
Just because you're not in school for video production doesn't mean you shouldn't be doing homework and practicing to improve. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is twofold.
First, identify basic camera movement techniques while watching movies and television and deconstruct them in your mind. Is the camera trucking or zooming? Is the camera on a crane? Or is the operator merely sticking his head out of a window?
Second, utilize all of the basic camera movement techniques in production. Understanding how the moves work gives you a series of new tools to help build productions in the future. If you're already using all of the basic camera moves, consider buying or renting a stabilizing rig or a jib for your next production. Experimenting is half the fun of making videos, and coming up with a new move that wows viewers while helping to get your story across is extremely satisfying.

A DOLLY is in fact left to right and a TRUCK is in and out, not the other way around. You first describe it the wrong way then you switch to "trucking IN AND OUT" and ask if the "camera is trucking or zooming". Rather confusing.
MasterWasp November 18, 2014 At 2:06 PM
I think that trucking can refer to a dolly motion (towards – away), or a tracking motion (maintaining specific distance). Tracking would keep the distance to the subject constant, trucking refers to movement along either a track or a dolly.
I probably just made it more confusing.
wolfmagic November 3, 2015 At 3:10 PM
what's it called, when the camera tilts to the left or right as per a flying effect? that is a move i aim to add in post-production, but need to know movement name.

German submarine U-963 was a Type VIIC U-boat of Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine during World War II.

She was ordered on 5 June 1941, and was laid down on 20 April 1942 at Blohm & Voss, Hamburg, as yard number 163. She was launched on 30 December 1942 and commissioned under the command of Leutnant zur See Karl Boddenberg on 17 February 1943.

Design
German Type VIIC submarines were preceded by the shorter Type VIIB submarines. U-963 had a displacement of  when at the surface and  while submerged. She had a total length of , a pressure hull length of , a beam of , a height of , and a draught of . The submarine was powered by two Germaniawerft F46 four-stroke, six-cylinder supercharged diesel engines producing a total of  for use while surfaced, two Garbe, Lahmeyer & Co. RP 137/c double-acting electric motors producing a total of  for use while submerged. She had two shafts and two  propellers. The boat was capable of operating at depths of up to .

The submarine had a maximum surface speed of  and a maximum submerged speed of . When submerged, the boat could operate for  at ; when surfaced, she could travel  at . U-963 was fitted with five  torpedo tubes (four fitted at the bow and one at the stern), fourteen torpedoes or 26 TMA mines, one  SK C/35 naval gun, 220 rounds, and one twin  C/30 anti-aircraft gun. The boat had a complement of between 44 — 52 men.

Service history
U-963 had a recorded five attacks on her. The first two during her fourth war patrol. On 5 February 1944, when she shot down a British B-24 Liberator of 53 Squadron/T RAF. Then on 26 March 1944, off of Brest, France, she came under attack by an unidentified Allied airplane.  This attack left nine men wounded, with two of them being badly injured. U-963 docked at Brest the next day.

Shortly after U-963 left Brest on 7 June 1944, on her fifth war patrol, she came under attack by another British B-24 of 53 Squadron RAF, piloted by John William Carmichael. The bomber was able to damage U-963 so severely that she had to return to Brest less than 24 hours after leaving for her patrol.

On 12 August 1944, the submarine base in Brest was bombed, killing one man during the air raid and severely wounding another, who died the next day.

The last attack came on 21 August 1944, in the Bay of Biscay. Just after midnight U-963 was forced into a crash dive and one man was lost overboard.

On 20 May 1945, the crew of U-963 scuttled her off of Nazaré, Portugal. The entire crew survived.

The wreck is located at .

Wolfpacks
U-963 took part in eight wolfpacks, namely:
 Siegfried (22 – 27 October 1943)
 Siegfried 2 (27 – 30 October 1943)
 Körner (30 October 1943 – 2 November 1943)
 Tirpitz 2 (2 – 8 November 1943)
 Eisenhart 5 (9 – 15 November 1943)
 Igel 2 (3 – 17 February 1944)
 Hai 2 (17 – 22 February 1944)
 Preussen (22 February – 14 March 1944)

Surface tension is the tension of the boundary layer of liquids to its surroundings (other liquids, vapor phase or air). In the bulk of the liquid, equal forces are pulling each molecule in every direction, forces, that are exerted by adjacent liquid molecules. Inside the liquid, the result is a net force of zero. Only at the boundary layer of the liquid, where there are not molecules on all sides, the molecules are being pulled inwards. In the quest for achieving the smallest potential energy, liquids aspire to minimize their surfaces. Therefore, the preferred shape of the liquid is a ball in spherical shape, since a ball, at the same volume, always has the smallest surface area when compared to other shapes.

University Names New Senior Director of Institutional Equity, Title IX
By Brittany Magelssen •June 6, 2019
Marco Mendoza MPA'18
Marco Mendoza MPA'18, who has worked at The University of Texas at Dallas since 2013, has been appointed as senior director of institutional equity and Title IX initiatives.
As the University's Title IX coordinator – a role he has held in an interim capacity since November – Mendoza plans to use his previous experience in Title IX and human resources to bring various campus groups together to address these sensitive topics.
"I'm looking forward to the outreach and the involvement with students, faculty and staff," Mendoza said. "We want to dispel the stigma that this office is only here to react to reports. Creating an equitable campus community that is free from discrimination and sexual misconduct is the responsibility of every member of our community. We want to be a partner and resource in creating such a culture."
Mendoza started at UT Dallas as director of institutional equity and equal employment opportunity and Title IX coordinator. He has served as director of employee relations and organizational development since 2014. Before joining UT Dallas, Mendoza worked in human resources at the UNT Health Science Center in Fort Worth.
"We want to dispel the stigma that this office is only here to react to reports. Creating an equitable campus community that is free from discrimination and sexual misconduct is the responsibility of every member of our community. We want to be a partner and resource in creating such a culture."

Institutional equity efforts provide staff, faculty and students with the resources and tools to ensure success in complying with the University's nondiscrimination policy, sexual misconduct policy, retaliation policy, and all related federal and state equal opportunity laws.
Title IX personnel investigate allegations of sexual misconduct including sexual harassment, sexual violence, stalking, domestic violence, dating violence and retaliation.
"Marco is a leader who brings experience as an advocate and an administrator," said Sanaz Okhovat, who is serving as interim chief compliance officer and oversees compliance, institutional equity and Title IX initiatives at the University. "His knowledge of Title IX issues combined with his collaborative approach will greatly benefit our community."
Use the complaint form if you have experienced conduct prohibited by the nondiscrimination policy.
Use the Title IX report form to submit a report or complaint regarding conduct prohibited by the sexual misconduct policy.
View resources for victims of sexual assault, relationship violence, stalking and other prohibited conduct.
The offices of Compliance, Institutional Equity and Title IX Initiatives are in Suite 2.720 in the Synergy Park North Building (SPN). Find directions here.
Title IX Contact
Contact Marco Mendoza by email at [email protected] or [email protected] and phone at 972-883-5202.
In his new role, Mendoza will work to develop, implement and monitor University programs and policies that promote and ensure compliance with Title IX, including educational programs and training for students, faculty and staff. He aims to foster a proactive culture on Title IX issues, ideally preventing problems before they occur.
"We want to meet with various student groups, seek input on what resources they need and do prevention-type training," Mendoza said. "We want to introduce our office and our staff so students know who we are and feel comfortable calling us."
Okhovat, who also serves as assistant vice president for research integrity and outreach, said the ultimate goal for the Office of Institutional Equity and Title IX Initiatives is for the University to be a national leader in responding to and preventing sexual misconduct and related issues, and to serve as a resource for other institutions.
Mendoza earned a Master of Public Affairs from the School of Economic, Political and Policy Sciences at UT Dallas and a bachelor's degree in business administration from McMurry University. He has a Professional in Human Resources (PHR) certificate and has received the highest level of civil rights investigator certification from the Association of Title IX Administrators.

Red Bull in discussions with FIA over F1 cost cap…
Red Bull in discussions with FIA over F1 cost cap Accepted Breach Agreement
In effect, an ABA means that the team admits to breaking the rules with its 2021 spending, and accepts the punishment levied.
If a team doesn't agree to an ABA, the case will move to the next stage, which is an investigation by the Cost Cap Adjudication Panel.
It is understood that team principal Christian Horner is likely to explain the team's position on the cost cap breach in a press conference on Friday in Austin, although that has yet to be confirmed by the team.
However given the timing, it's unlikely that any agreement will have been reached before he speaks.
Since rumours of an alleged breach by Red Bull first surfaced over the Singapore Grand Prix weekend, Horner has insisted that the team had complete faith in the numbers it submitted to the FIA in March.
The day after the Japanese GP, the FIA formally confirmed that the team was guilty of "procedural and minor overspend breaches" following a review of the documents submitted by all the teams.
More details of Red Bull Racing's alleged overspend have begun to emerge, although nothing has been officially confirmed by the FIA or the team.

The overall figure involved is believed to be around $1.8m, which puts the offence well within the "minor breach" limit of 5% over the cap, or just over $7m.
The team appears to have fallen foul of several areas of the FIA's financial regulations, which have regularly been updated by amendments that have not been published on its website or made public.
One is the allocation of the cost of catering at the factory and at the track. In addition, there are believed to be redundancy and sick pay issues related to key employees.
A subject more directly involved to the cost of running the cars is the allocation of the value of unused spare parts.
They were passed to the heritage department at the end of the season for use on show cars and any testing of the 2021 model in 2022, which falls outside the cap restrictions.
It's understood that the FIA issued a clarification in June this year, three months after teams submitted their documents, about how such parts were to be considered by teams.
There is also a UK-specific tax issue which is believed to be similar to a procedural breach involving Aston Martin.
If Horner does speak on Friday he is expected to give further details on the team's position in all areas.

INTERVIEW: Zeus Da Don – confidence, class, brilliance, and personality
Staff — February 7, 2021
Shatille Bailey, known as Zeus Da Don, was born and raised in Youngstown, Ohio. Where she started as a theater student at Chaney High School. She started writing music at the age of 14, and taught herself how to play the piano, guitar, and drums. In 2011, Zeus moved to Fort Myers Florida, diving deep into the music scene she began DJ at clubs and managing underground artist. She continued to manage underground artist when she moved to Columbus. She then released her first mixtape in 2019 called "Perfection Takes Time". Releasing her first EP called "deception." in 2020. Zeus is the Founder and owner of Zeulympus Entertainment and tumble. By Zeus. She is inspired by a lot of different artist from Janet Jackson, Chuck Berry, Aaliyah, Nas, Kendrick Lamar and many more.
Can you tell us a bit about where you come from and how you got started?
Zeus Da Don: I'm from Youngstown, Ohio and I have been songwriting since 14.
Do you handle both the songwriting and beats on your songs, or do you collaborate with others?
Zeus Da Don: I collaborate with others for the beat. I'm not really good at the making the beat on the computer but I can make the beat like beatboxing and then my Producer creates it. I do all of the songwriting.
Who were your first and strongest musical influences that you can remember?
Zeus Da Don: Oh wow, Nas, Chuck Berry, Mos Def, 2Pac, Journey, Bon Jovi, Notorious B.I.G., and Janet Jackson. Honestly my mom and dad and stepfather make sure that I was well aware of all kinds of music and especially different genres.
What do you feel are the key elements in your music that should resonate with listeners?
Zeus Da Don: Mostly, anything that I rap about is things I've been through. Things I've witnessed. I've had good times and bad times. So I feel like nobody actually has one emotion, and my music will make them feel all the emotions. I believe it will be what they need when they need it.
For most artists, originality is first preceded by a phase of learning and, often, emulating others. What was this like for you? How would you describe your own development as an artist and music maker, and the transition towards your own style?
Zeus Da Don: Oh yes definitely, I have emulated different artists. I had a moment where I didn't like my voice. I didn't like the way I sounded on recordings or anything like that, so if I can say the development as of now is I'm starting to like my voice more. I'm learning how to be more clever with my metaphors too.
What's your view on the role and function of music as political, cultural, spiritual, and/or social vehicles – and do you try and affront any of these themes in your work, or are you purely interested in music as an expression of technical artistry, personal narrative and entertainment?
Zeus Da Don: Honestly I feel like when you have people who look at your opinions and look up to you it is impossible to not be the type of musician to not have any views because people appreciate your opinion I mean they listen to you when I have problems so I went to listen to your political or cultural your social Themes. I know I am in the US industry. I am a African-American woman who lives in a world where there is racism and there's all kinds of hatred from other people and that's unfortunate but I know the kind of world I'm in, and I feel like music can bring people close together, to divide people apart. I could start a war, you can make someone fall in love, it does so many different things so it's impossible not to.
Do you ever write a song with current musical trends, formulas or listener satisfaction in mind, or do you simply focus on your own personal vision and trust that people will empathize with your sound?
Zeus Da Don: It's a mixture of both. I believe that some people will empathize with my sound. But I also know in this game, in this industry, in this career to stay afloat, sometimes you have to go with the trends, so I'll do a little bit of both I like to make the trend my own.
Could you describe your creative processes? How do usually start, and go about shaping ideas into a completed song? Do you usually start with a beat, or a narrative in your head?
Zeus Da Don: It depends on my mood, sometimes it's a beat that get me going. Sometimes I just have something on my mind that I want to right. There is usually lyrics in my mind all day every day. One thing I can say is I never start a song, come back to it later and finish it or keep adding on line by line. I normally finish whatever song I started on
What has been the most difficult thing you've had to endure in your career so far?
Zeus Da Don: Definitely balancing my career life and my personal life. I am why people call a workaholic, so I'm usually always working. I'm always doing something to be creative or to make myself better in my career, so learning balance is definitely it.
On the contrary, what would you consider a successful, proud or significant point in your career so far?
Zeus Da Don: Dropping my first album the one thing that will definitely beat that moment would be going platinum for the first time or gold.
Could you tell us more about the scope of Zeulympus Entertainment?
Zeus Da Don: Zeulympus entertainment is a company that a friend and I created because we were tired of going to producers and instead of them doing what we needed, they did what they wanted. We have a couple of different artists on it. Our alternative artist, Davy Crockett's Ghost, Actually drops their Excalibur album in late February so definitely be sure to check that out.
How did the moniker Zeus Da Don come about?
Zeus Da Don: Oh man you don't want to know that story all I'm gonna say is, it involves alcohol a party and friends.
If you had a choice to go on tour with any acclaimed international artist in the near future, who would you choose, and why?
Zeus Da Don: Janet Jackson. I mean you always wanna go on tour with someone you look up to, with one of the reasons you started doing this, so definitely gonna have to say Janet Jackson.
With social media having a heavy impact on our lives and the music business in general, how do you handle criticism, haters and/or naysayers in general? Is it something you pay attention to, or simply ignore?
Zeus Da Don: I don't read ratings or anything like that. I ignore that stuff. I mean I have naysayers in my own family that I ignore, so why wouldn't. I ignore people that I don't even know.
Could you tell us something about your latest project and what the highlights are to watch out for?
Zeus Da Don: Oh man definitely! What I can say is Ungodly Manners is going to be absolutely amazing I went through a very turbulent year and that year I've learned a lot, so darling watch out for songs like Acid Trip and I Cry and Save Me and Whatever, they're going to be awesome.
Do you have a personal favorite track amongst those in your catalogue that has a specific backstory and/or message and meaning very special to you?
Zeus Da Don: I have a funny story for one of the songs that I did. And it's for the song "sextures". In the song I had to teach myself how to be sexual on a song. .I'm a really private person so when I did the song I actually didn't even let the Producer be in the studio with me when I did the vocals. I just pressed the buttons all myself and let the producer mixed and mastered it when I wasn't around. I'm extremely shy when it comes to stuff like that so he thought it was hilarious but he also understood like why I didn't wanna do it. I was like no no no I don't want to do it.
Creative work in studio environment, or interaction with a live audience? Which of these two options excite you most?
Zeus Da Don: Definitely live crowd because when it comes to a live crowd you can feed off of their energy and vice versa. I love going to the studio because I love being completely me and unapologetically me, but I have to say when it comes to excitement I'm definitely going to the audience.
What's your favorite motto, phrase or piece of advice, you try to live or inspire yourself by?
Zeus Da Don: "Be the best YOU, YOU can be. Because you're the only YOU it can be" – My Grandma.
How essential do you think video is in relation to your music? Do you have a video you suggest fans see, to get a better understanding of your craft?
Zeus Da Don: It can be very essential if you feel like you need to explain how you envision that song. My music video Acid Trip will be out right after the album drops, so I think the fans are gonna love it.
What do you find most rewarding about what you do? And do you have a specific vision or goal set in your mind that you would like to achieve in the near future?
Zeus Da Don: The most rewarding thing about what I do is knowing that there's a possibility that my music can save someone. My goal is to be able to work with the artist who saved me, like Nas, Janet Jackson and Kendrick Lamar.

The Importance of Fashion in Early Modern England
By Lindsay Kubin
Senior Seminar Thesis, Western Oregon University (2007)
Introduction: To twentieth century scholars the importance of cloth or clothing in society has often been debated. Its presence can be found in almost any society around the world at any point in history. In 1983 a conference entitled "Cloth and the Organization of the Human Experience" brought together scholars of anthropology, art, art history, and history to discuss the importance of cloth on people and societies. As one of these scholars put it cloth is "an economic commodity, a critical object in social exchange, an objectification of ritual intent, a vehicle of symbolic meaning, and an instrument of political power." The participants of this conference concluded, "the language of cloth speaks not only to the creation and dissolution of personal and social identities but to wider issues of long-distance trade, colonialism, revolution, and nationalism." Anthropologist Thomas Beidelman who was present at the conference stated his opinion that "cloth defines the limits and possibilities of people as actors in social relations" and added that "masking, hiding, and duplicity are equally important goals in the use of cloth."
While a study of the impact of clothing and fashion in any society is no doubt interesting it is particularly fascinating in relation to the history and culture of the Western world. This paper examines the roots of fashion in Europe, specifically in England. Fashion was such an intrinsic part of society in early modern England (1485-1714) that a study of its trends and changes can help define the political, social and economic climate of the day, and in some ways was itself the perpetrator of trouble and change during this period. This changing climate reflects a process of materialization and an emerging middle class.
Studies of European fashion history begin usually with the Middle Ages following the changes of male military outfit. As battles were won dress was subtly changed here and there to reflect a victory, usually more for utilitarian than for aesthetic value. One instance of this is a Swiss victory over Charles the Bold, Duke of Burgundy, at the Battle of Grandson in 1476. The Swiss soldiers used the acquired booty of fine silks and other materials to patch their torn clothes. This habit of patching different color cloths together was called "landsknecht" and soon became the style throughout European courts.2 As one scholar put it "fame in war brought imitation in peace."

Military Veterans Write to Sitharaman to Appoint CDS At Par With NSA To Ensure External Security
CDS should be NSA ( External Security)
|1 Nov 2018 11:50 AM GMT
NEW DELHI: At least 130 senior military veterans have written an open letter to Union Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman pointing to the growing external threats and the possibility of a two front war and expressing deep concern about the country's higher defence management.
The veterans have urged the Minister to appoint the long pending Chief of Defence Staff as the head of an unified military command proposing that one, the officer so appointed be senior in rank than the three defence chiefs; that he serves as the single point military advisors to the National Security Council; and functions as the National Security Advisor (External Security). The existing NSA, the veterans said, should be NSA (Internal Security).
The text of the letter:
We the undersigned are military Veterans who each have many years of experience in the defence of our nation.
We are bringing a matter of the most serious gravity concerning our nation's higher defence management for your consideration. This is especially important in view of the emerging military situation around India's land and ocean borders, which may call for India's military response at some stage, if economic and diplomatic initiatives and military deterrence do not succeed in maintaining peace, which is necessary for our nation's development.
Strategic think tanks and experts hold that military operations in coming years would be short and intense, and that the aggressor could gain an initial advantage. There is also the distinct possibility of our having to conduct war on two fronts, due to the nexus between our adversaries. In these circumstances, the speed and strength of our military response in defence or strike would be vital. This would depend upon the appropriate deployment, coordination and proportionate launch of our army, naval, air and cyber forces in the theatres under attack or threat.
India's military response therefore will have to be as joint military operations of our three Defence Services (army, navy and air force). Further, credible capability of such jointness would serve as a deterrent to neighbours from undertaking any military adventures.
Effective joint operations necessitate unified military command by a military officer superior in rank to the three Service chiefs, designated as, say, Chief of the Defence Staff (CDS). The CDS would also serve to render valid single-point military advice to the National Security Council (NSC) as National Security Advisor (External Security), and the existing NSA would be NSA (Internal Security). At present, there being no CDS, the Chairman and members of NSC cannot receive single-point advice on military and external security matters, which is so necessary for rapid and valid decision-making at the national level, vital especially for short and intense armed conflicts.
We therefore respectfully request your most serious and urgent consideration of the foregoing and earnestly urge you to establish the post of CDS, to be tenured by a military officer who will also serve in the NSC as NSA (External Security).


In most cases I need only modules from yast2.rpm, I suggest to separate modules from this package, or show also needed dependency for each module.
Very nice, finally, the very first volunteer raised his voice to really *do* something about the documentation. Thanks a lot!
Showing the RPM-dependencies in YCP/Perl modules is a good start.


Apologies for not writing in my blog until now but time seems to disappear so quickly.
Had a great workshop on Saturday, 21st October with Gary O' Reilly who flew over from Dublin specially for the workshop.
Everyone has said what a great day it was and that Gary was brilliant. Look forward to him returning next year. Gary taught four dances - On Your Uppers, The Pilot, Cry Baby and Tension all great dances.
Can't believe it is nearly the end of the year and 2017 loams ahead.
It was my Social on the 3rd and we had a good fun night despite numbers being down, thank you to all who attended.


With hymns, speeches, tears and cheers, 104 high school seniors picked up their diplomas and wrapped up their time at Trinity School on Saturday, June 9. Their graduations took place within a few hours of each other on the three campuses of Trinity School: in Falls Church, VA, Eagan, MN, and South Bend, IN.
In her valedictory at the Meadow View campus, graduate award winner Julia DeCelles-Zwerneman compared graduation day to a moment in the development of a human embryo, termed "gastrulation." The embryo, at seven to ten days old, reforms itself into three layers: primitive versions of the human digestive system, nervous system and the muscular and circulatory systems. The embryo also takes on a surprising shape--that of a doughnut. "This day is very much like the day we became doughnuts," Julia told her fellow graduates. "On that day we were being equipped with the physical tools necessary to function as human beings. Today marks the day we are finally equipped with the intellectual and spiritual tools necessary to begin our work for Christ."
In May, Meadow View's senior class raised more than $6,000 for International Justice Mission (IJM), a human rights group that frees modern-day slaves. (The money covered the costs of freeing one slave, according to IJM.) At graduation, they were treated to a speech by Bill Clark, IJM's vice-president for advancement. Since 27 million people are currently living as slaves, he said, Trinity graduates are "entering a world that is desperate for courageous and Christlike leaders."
The commencement ceremony at River Ridge took on both somber and celebratory tones. The graduates remembered Alex Maslow, son of Mike and Kathy Maslow (Servant Branch), who died in the summer of 2010 and would have graduated from River Ridge this year. Another River Ridge student, Johnny McClure, a sophomore and brother of one of the graduates, died unexpectedly in his sleep last November.
In his valedictory, graduate award winner Joshua Koletar reflected on Alex's death and on the limits of human reason: "[After Alex's death] I tried to rely upon my reason to comprehend my world, and it failed me." When reason comes up short, Joshua said, love offers a way forward. "Through the grace of God we have been equipped with a capacity to transcend reason. This capacity is our ability to love. . . . Love sustains us in our direst circumstances and connects us with something greater than ourselves."
This year is also the 25th anniversary of the River Ridge campus, and Kerry Koller (South Bend), president and one of the founders of Trinity Schools, came to River Ridge to mark the occasion. He thanked former Servant Branch principal branch coordinator Louis Grams, along with the rest of the coordinators and members of the branch for their efforts in helping to get the school going.
Kerry also gave a talk to the graduates that brought together literature, physics, philosophy and Scripture, not to mention photons, gamma rays and gluons, the origins of the universe, human evolution and the development of writing. "The development of writing had a greater impact on the evolution of human society than any other invention," Kerry said. Writing allowed humans to create governments, currency, contracts and corporations, and, crucially, it allowed the word of God to be written down. On the pages of Scripture, humans can come to see and understand "the fundamental narrative of all reality." Trinity has offered its graduates a glimpse of that reality, revealed in Scripture and in the natural world, Kerry said.
At Greenlawn's commencement, graduate award winner Katherine Couch said in her valedictory that seeing a play, Arthur Miller's All My Sons, had convinced her of the importance of living a good life. "All My Sons instilled in me a fierce desire to be better and to better the world through my choices," she said. Katherine plans to study international relations and become a diplomat or a translator. She noted, "A good life doesn't have to be something flashy. It could be raising a family with love. It could be teaching high school. It could be painting or dancing or singing."
Dr. Peter Kilpatrick, Dean of the College of Engineering at the University of Notre Dame, urged Greenlawn graduates to overcome their fears by maintaining a personal prayer time. "Your conversation, your dialogue with God on a daily basis is the most important thing you will do in your life," he said.
Of Trinity's 104 graduates, 89 plan to attend college this fall. The colleges they will attend include Johns Hopkins, the University of Notre Dame, the University of Chicago, the University of Virginia and the U.S Military Academy at West Point. Several of the graduates opted to defer college in favor of military service, charitable service or missionary work. Soon, these Trinity grads will be serving in Belgium, England, Costa Rica, Grenada, Nicaragua and the Philippines.
River Ridge: Joshua Koletar, Meg Thompson.
Congratulations to all the Trinity graduates of 2012! You make us proud.
Dr. Peter Kilpatrick's comment,"Your conversation, your dialogue with God on a daily basis is the most important thing you will do in your life" is simple yet so profound!
"Lord, hear the cries of your people!"
Lord bless and guide all of the 2012 graduates.
Praise God for our full, rich life! Give all of these students "MORE, LORD!" in all their future endeavors.

This case required an in-depth knowledge and correct interpretation of New Zealand Immigration Instructions and Immigration Law in order to get a character waiver request approved.
Vishwajeetisan Indian national who during his stay in New Zealandwas once caught for drunk driving. At that stage, he took the incident lightly, only to know later that it was a big mistake from the point of view of Immigration New Zealand. Thus, when he applied for his work visa, hepromptly received a PPI letter from immigration.
The PPI letter highlighted the issue of drunk driving and put a character concern against him. He was told that without the grant of a character waiver, his visa could not be approved.
Vishwajeet now understood the gravity of the matter and got into panic mode frantically thinkingwhat to do next, who to approach and what were the options available to him.His decision to share his circumstances with his friends further put him in despair and left him with extreme stress.
As he was searching for solution to his predicament, he learnt about Himanshu Rai through Google. He was impressed by the online reviews and professional background of the Licensed Immigration Adviser. Himanshu indeed proved to be his saviour. Within a few moments of his first meeting with Himanshu, Vishwajeet was relieved of his anxieties. The way he interacted with him convinced Vishwajeet that he was in good hands.His in-depth knowledge about immigration persuaded him and convinced him that his case would surely be handled in a most competent and skilled manner.
Himanshuassessed the matter and asked Vishwajeet to give all the relevant documents needed for hischaracter waiver request. He discussed with Vishwajeet and requested for documents which Vishwajeet had no idea would be useful in advocating for his character waiver request e.g. his day to day commuting details after the incident, his self-imposed restrictions, and support letters from his friends and colleagues.
The case was well advocated and effectively presented,which gave the Immigration New Zealand a different perspective about the surrounding circumstances of the client.Hence due to Himanshu'scompetence, skills and sincere efforts, Vishwajeet was granted his character waiver request , which turn got him his much awaited visa approval.
Vishwajeet is currently working with a high-profile multinational company and is planning to apply for his residency very soon.


High school students march in central Algiers, March 10, 2019.
Algerian teenagers and lawyers held protests Monday, and workers held scattered walkouts, as their tense nation waits to see whether ailing President Abdelaziz Bouteflika offers any concessions in the face of unprecedented protests.
His absence saw growing demonstrations demanding that he withdraw his candidacy for a fifth term in next month's election. Algerians have hardly seen Bouteflika since he suffered a stroke in 2013, and anger has mounted at the country's secretive power structure.
Middle school and high school students held protests in several towns, according to local media. Education Minister Nouria Bengahbrit appealed on her Facebook page for protesters to "leave schools out of political turbulence'' shaking the country.
Exceptionally, some judges also joined a lawyers' protest in the city of Bedjaia in Kabylie, a region historically opposed to the powers-that-be in Algiers. Judges are normally banned from publicly demonstrating, like police and soldiers.
The unprecedented citizens' revolt began last month and has drawn millions into the streets of cities across the country to say no to a fifth term for their 82-year-old president — and no to a system blamed for corruption and keeping Bouteflika in office despite his ailments.
A wily political survivor, Bouteflika fought in Algeria's independence war against French forces and has played a role in Algeria's major developments for the past half-century. He became president in 1999 and reconciled a nation riven by a deadly Islamic insurgency, but questions swirl over whether he is really running the country today.
The protests have surprised Algeria's opaque leadership and freed up Algerians, long fearful of the watchful security apparatus, to openly criticize the president. Algerians are also letting out pent-up anger at corruption that has left the country's oil and gas riches in the hands of a few while millions of young people struggle to find jobs.
"The national patriotic army takes pride in being a part of this defiant nation, and cherishes sharing the same values and principles'' with the people, he said during a speech to engineering students.

Professor John Quigley Letter
Open Letter to the U.S. Antiwar Movement
Veterans for Peace Statement on Iran
UNAC Statement on Syria
Palestinian Children
(please forward widely)
U.S./Israel Hands Off Syria!
A Statement by the United National Antiwar Coalition (UNAC)
The May 2-3 and 4-5 nighttime bombings of Syria's International Airport, military installations in a Damascus suburb and a military supply depot reportedly killed 300 people. The bombings were initially denied but then confirmed by Israel and soon after given the stamp of approval by the Obama Administration.
The previous week President Obama and Secretary of Defense Charles Hagel threatened to escalate U.S. intervention in Syria based on the unsubstantiated charge that Syria had employed weapons of mass destruction, in this case the deadly sarin gas.
What is incontrovertible is that U.S. allies in the region - Turkey, Qatar and Saudi Arabia - have supplied hundreds of millions of dollars in lethal military aid to destabilize the Syrian regime. The U.S. itself claims to have supplied some $400 million in "non-lethal aid." The U.S., which funds Israel's multi-billion dollar "Iron Dome" missile program, is the chief military force in the region.
No serious observers believe that Israel, the largest recipient of U.S. aid in the world, to the tune of $4 billion annually, acts without U.S. approval – the same is undeniable with regard to Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the U.S. NATO ally, Turkey.
In the case of Qatar, a nation without an army, the U.S.-established and privatized Blackwater military installation is used daily as an operational base for the U.S. war in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere.
The U.S. Machiavellian strategy in Syria is first and foremost to advance its economic, military and regional "interests." The latter includes deepening the isolation of Iran, whose oil wealth the U.S. corporate elite seeks to regain.
We recognize no rights among imperial nations to determine the future of any oppressed nation on earth, not to mention the modern day neo-colonial interveners. With regard to Syria, that right belongs to the Syrian people only.
The U.S. government is presently restrained by the mass antiwar sentiment expressed in repeated polls over the past two years. The most recent Pew Research poll indicates that 62 percent are opposed to any U.S. intervention in Syria. We must add to this the fact the U.S. bloody wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the decades long U.S. support to the Egyptian Mubarak dictatorship as well as the constant drone attacks on Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia have earned it the deep hatred of the peoples of the Middle East and beyond.
The Iraq "weapons of mass destruction" justification for this still-raging war, that has taken the lives of 1.5 million Iraqis so far, and the ongoing war in Afghanistan, wherein the U.S. puppet Hamid Karzai regime is discredited around the world, has convinced social justice activists everywhere that the U.S. imperial rulers fight for oil and military-geographic advantage and not for peace and justice.
More than ever the U.S. and the worldwide antiwar and social justice movement must demand:
· U.S./Israel Hands Off Syria!
· Bring All U.S. Troops and Mercenaries Home Now!
· Self-determination for the Syrian People!
· No to U.S. Sanctions Anywhere!
· End All U.S. Aid to Israel!
· U.S. Out of the Middle East Now!

Fallout! The consequences of Canada's role in Ukraine | Maxime Bernier
Foreign Relations, Journalism, Latest, Political Parties, Politics, Society, Video 1 Response »
The People's Party of Canada, led by Maxime Bernier represents the views of approximately 1.4 million Canadians yet Canada's corporate media has refused to cover the Party's recently released policy statement on the Russo-Ukraine conflict.
The Party's position is the only one calling for a negotiated peace and starkly contrasts with the warmongering stance taken by all other Canadian political parties and leaders.
"…whatever you think about who the good and the bad guys are, I believe Canada should not have gotten involved in this war. We should have remained neutral and worked with our allies to help establish a peace process" Mr. Bernier said.
All Canadian parliamentarians are in lock-step in their blind support of the Ukrainian government of Volodymyr Zelenskyy—blind because they are refusing to acknowledge the undemocratic nature of Zelenskyy's regime and his brutal subjugation of Russo-Ukrainians. Blind also for their refusal to even consider the causes which precipitated the actions from Moscow.
Zelenskyy has banned most opposition parties, nationalized the media, and is moving to outlaw the Orthodox Church and still, Canadian Parliamentarians call him the "Champion of democracy," while Moscow has claimed that it is acting lawfully within the bounds of the United Nations Charter Chapter VII Article 51.
Here, Mr. Bernier joins Robert Vaughan of Just Right Media to discuss the geopolitical consequences of the conflict unfolding in Ukraine and the disgraceful and irresponsible behaviour of Canada's parliamentarians and corporate media.
This video is also available on YouTube, BitChute, and Odysee.

Books, Governance, Journalism, Latest, Law, Politics, Society, Video Comments Off on The Freedom Convoy | Andrew Lawton
The Trucker's Freedom Convoy was a pivotal moment in Canadian history and one which will be studied for many years to come.
Predictably, the dependent press (legacy media outlets in the direct pay of the Liberal government) were notorious for their mishandling of the event. Their feeble and often amateurish attacks meant to vilify the protesters by means of deception and outright falsehoods were thwarted by the coverage of the rally by honest journalists such as Andrew Lawton of True North.
In order to set the record straight for the sake of posterity, Andrew published The Freedom Convoy—The inside story of three weeks that shook the world (Sutherland House). The book quickly became a best seller. In it, Andrew details how the rally was nothing like that depicted by both the dependent press and the politicians in government.
Andrew also reveals the inner workings of the organization that started the Convoy although "organization" is a term used loosely as it soon became apparent that the rally was quickly evolving into a massive grassroots movement spanning the country and involving several thousands of protesters.
Fueled by disgust and even rage over the tyrannical measures the Trudeau/Singh government had inflicted on them during the preceding two years Canadians across the country supported the truckers in numbers never seen before in this country. The response was noticed all over the world with similar convoys starting up in Europe, Australia, and the United States.
Robert Vaughan sat down with Andrew to discuss his inside knowledge of the freedom convoy and the events of those three weeks that shook the world.

Free State Project—A freedom success story | Derek Proulx
Journalism, Latest, Law, Libertarianism, Politics, Society, Video Comments Off on Free State Project—A freedom success story | Derek Proulx
The Free State Project has become a freedom success story in the United States. Stemming from an essay by Professor Jason Sorens, now of St. Anselm College, which proposed that in a state with a population of about 1 million, a critical mass of only 20,000 freedom activists could shape the politics, laws, and culture of that area into one more accepting of, and conducive to, individual freedom.
Derek Proulx, an active volunteer of the Free State Project, joins Just Right Media's Robert Vaughan to discuss the movement's many success stories and how other states and provinces in the U.S. and Canada can benefit from their journey in the right direction.

During his tour of Canada's Maritime Provinces, I was honoured to have a conversation with People's Party of Canada Leader Maxime Bernier.
Maxime is perhaps the only Western politician calling for peace and prosperity in Ukraine and asks that the two warring parties continue negotiations to end the conflict.
We also talked about the effectiveness of Canada's Senate in revoking the Emergencies Act, the defunding of the CBC and an end to all subsidies to media including advertising funds, the irrationality of Justin Trudeau's and Jagmeet Singh's measures on travel for those not "vaccinated," and the prospect for the publishing of his book "Doing Politics Differently."

In an era of massive violations of individual rights by tyrannical governments around the world British cartoonist, Bob Moran's work has become iconic for the freedom movement. His artwork both pokes fun at the political elites while revealing their true nature as despots.
He has recently teamed up with The Democracy Fund, a Canadian charity promoting the cause of individual rights and freedom.
Robert Vaughan spoke with Mr. Moran about The Democracy Fund, his political motivations, and his influence on a culture in decline and in desperate need of positive imagery and inspirational humour.

755 – Elon Musk's 'private' strategy for free speech
Comments Off on 755 – Elon Musk's 'private' strategy for free speech
Widespread speculation about the consequences of Elon Musk's recent offer to buy Twitter has produced some interesting narratives of hope, doubts, skepticism, and celebration.
Motivations aside, Musk's actions have clearly upset members of the 'fake news' media, while those on the side of 'truth and free speech' are cheering him on.
Twitter's reputation as a censor of viewpoints that do not support 'official' narratives on everything from climate change to Ukraine has been well earned. Even the president of the United States, Donald Trump, was banned from the social media site.
Paradoxically, Twitter claimed its right to censor and prohibit access under the premise that it is a private company (though publicly traded), while Musk now suggests that his purchase and private ownership of Twitter is the means to protect free speech on the site.
Meanwhile, efforts to control the public narrative by governments and politicians continue to go well beyond mere censorship. For example, Canada's government is now in the process of forcing Facebook and Google to subsidize selected Canadian news outlets. So the battle to protect freedom of speech is far from over.
As a strategy for protecting free speech, it will remain to be seen whether Twitter's possible change of status under Elon Musk proves to be Just Right, or whether it is but one small step in the Right direction.

French journalist Éric Zemmour is running for the Presidency of France this April and as with any "conservative" candidates who stand against open immigration policies he is being typically vilified by the far-Left media and falsely accused as being a racist.
Professor Salim Mansur of Western University gives us his views of Éric Zemmour, the immigration policies of Western societies, and the predictable treatment given Zemmour by the globalist press.

Sappho Through English Poetry quantity
Categories: Literary studies: ancient, classical and medieval, Literary studies: poetry and poets
The poetry of Sappho, who was born around 620 BC and lived on the Greek island of Lesbos, has inspired and fascinated readers and poets for two and a half thousand years. Today, as in antiquity, she is regarded as Greece's supreme lyric poet. Yet apart from a few near-complete poems, her poetry survives largely in tantalizing fragments. This book traces Sappho's reception in English-language poetry through translations and poems about her. From Donne and Pope via Swinburne, Bliss Carman and Pound to contemporary poets such as Michael Longley and Olga Broumas, it both celebrates and illustrates our changing image of Sappho.

Q: Creating a MongoDB index to enforce uniqueness for a field but only in combination with another value I am keeping track of some jobs in a collection. Each job has a name and a state. I want to enforce that there can only be one job with state "ACTIVE" for any given name. There can be many jobs for that same name in other states, but only one in ACTIVE.
I am using Java and Spring Data.
I tried this:
        IndexFilter onlyActive = PartialIndexFilter.of(Criteria.where("state").is("ACTIVE"));
        mongoTemplate.indexOps(DownloadJob.class)
        .ensureIndex(
            new Index().on("name", Sort.Direction.ASC).partial(onlyActive).unique()
        );

When I insert documents with the same name and different non-ACTIVE states I still get a duplicate key exception. Any ideas how I can achieve this?

A: This works:
        IndexFilter onlyActive = PartialIndexFilter.of(Criteria.where("state").is("ACTIVE"));
        mongoTemplate.indexOps(DownloadJob.class)
        .ensureIndex(
            new Index().on("name", Sort.Direction.ASC).unique().partial(onlyActive)
        );

The Silent Scream (DVD) Eight Languages
"When the lives of the unborn are snuffed out, they often feel pain, pain that is long and agonizing." – President Ronald Reagan to National Religious Broadcasters Convention, January 1981
Ronald Reagan became convinced of this as a result of watching The Silent Scream – a movie he considered so powerful and convicting that he screened it at the White House.
The modern technology of real-time ultrasound now reveals the actual responses of a 12-week old fetus to being aborted. As the unborn child attempts to escape the abortionist's suction curette, her motions can be seen to become desperately agitated and her heart rate doubles. Her mouth opens – as if to scream – but no sound can come out. Her scream doesn't have to remain silent, however … not if you will become her voice. This newly re-mastered version features eight language tracks and two bonus videos.
"… a high technology "Uncle Tom's Cabin" arousing public opinion just as Harriet Beecher Stowe's 1852 antislavery novel ignited the abolitionist movement." – Sen. Gordon Humphrey, Time Magazine

Anthony Reynolds is an American film, television and theatre actor known for his work as a character actor playing authoritative roles as law enforcement officers, federal agents and military officials. Gravitating toward the character actors in the movies of his childhood, Anthony aspired to be a regular guy who plays to the leads in supporting roles. Upon completion of Cary High School in 1986, Anthony studied at North Carolina State University and East Carolina University and made almost annual trips to New York to visit the theatre and museums. His college years were interrupted by some harrowing twists and turns, but Anthony graduated from ECU in 1992 with a BFA in Communication Arts. In 1993, he drove with a friend to Los Angeles where he slept on the floor of his high school friend, Keith Coulouris' apartment in Studio City, CA. Keith was instrumental in Anthony getting a bit part in, Dead Man's Revenge (1994), a USA network movie of the week, starring Bruce Dern, Michael Ironside and Vondie Curtis-Hall. Upon realizing the high cost of living in LA, Anthony returned to the East Coast to study acting as he had no business on a film set without formal training. He spent just shy of two years in Atlanta, taking classes and auditioning, before his then agent, Ted Borden urged him to make the big move to Manhattan to study at The Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute. In 1995, Anthony did just that. He lived in a NYU dorm with a student he met on his flight to New York after the living situation he had arranged prior to the move fell apart upon his arrival. The front door to the apartment that he was to be staying in had been kicked in and the tenants robbed the night before. He ended up bouncing between apartments on the Upper East and West Sides of the city. Concurrent to his studies at the LSTI, Anthony studied privately with acting coaches Michael Margotta and Geoffrey Horne. While performing off-off Broadway in numerous black box theaters, Anthony met Lamya Jezek. In 1999, upon her graduation from NYU's Tisch School for Acting, the newly engaged couple moved to Los Angeles as Lamya had secured representation. They were married July 14, 2001, in North Carolina. In LA, Anthony studied with Milton Katselas at The Beverly Hills Playhouse and with Lesly Kahn in the Hollywood Hills. Anthony found that the best training of all, was working on sets with other actors. He had the privilege of working with Academy Award Nominated actor, Edward Norton for nine years on several films as well as Academy Award and Golden Globe Winner, Billy Bob Thornton on four films. Anthony maintains a number of relationships in NY and LA, but chose to return to his Southern roots to raise his family. Anthony and his family have resided on the East Coast since 2008, where he continues to work regularly in film and television. Show less «
