Highway Patrol Stories
By Chuck Coats
PURPOSE OF THIS BOOK
With all the negative press about Law Enforcement, I think this is the right time to show a side that is not talked about very much. Law Enforcement Officials have said if you could just ride with us for a day, you would see that the bad press only covers a small percentage of the organization.
Since it is generally difficult for the general public to ride with us, I have written experiences that cover two decades. I will take you on a ride that will show light hearted, dangerous, funny, emotional and even life saving events.
"Serious and humorous stories of life as a N.C. Highway Patrolman told by a trooper who either lived them or knew the people that did. The author also shares a brief look at some of the politics that govern the patrol's operations. A very interesting read on all levels."
Chuck Coats has written an insightful book about some of the antics and serious times of NC SHP Troopers. Some of his stories are laughable, others you will shake your head at, plus several show the danger and seriousness of the job. He also points out that, unfortunately, there are still some politics involved. I thank Chuck for his comments and stories about 1st/Sgt G.A. Stewart….he was my dad. He loved the Highway Patrol and I am sure he did his best to see that it was a respected and well-trained organization, especially in his area of responsibility, District 6 of Troop C. My dad's career and my association with troopers also helped to nudge me into serving 26 years (early '70s to late 1990s) as a Reserve Officer with the Smithfield PD so I can vouch that these stories, truly, are the way it was.
HIGHWAY PATROL STORIES INTRODUCTION
This book is comprised of stories of situations involving me and/or other Troopers and our experiences. The idea for the book began when I told a funny story to someone and he said, "You need to write a book." That was several years ago and the book has been a work in progress. The first story is the one I told to the individual who gave me the idea. It is titled "Just trying to make it home." As I thought about a Title for the book and remembering this story, I thought we had something in common. He was drunk and told me he was just trying to make it home. Each shift I began was with the prayer, "Please help me just make it home." These stories are in no particular order. They are as factually correct as my memory would allow.
Now, climb in the passenger seat of my patrol car, C-643, as I take you on a ride through my many years as a North Carolina State Trooper.
I was born in 1943. My dad was in the Army stationed at Ft. Lewis, Washington on the west coast. Soon after my birth, my dad received orders to join the 644th tank destroyer Battalion in Germany. Subsequently, my mother took me, an 8 week old infant, on a 3000 mile train ride to Columbia SC, her home town. She was one tough lady.
We lived there with her mom and dad until my dad returned years later. Dad was injured by shrapnel and received a medical discharge in 1945. We stayed in Columbia until I was in the 3rd grade when we moved to Durham, NC. I completed high school and with no desire to go to college, I joined the Air Force. My scores on the entrance exam showed me eligible for Administrative or General Fields. One of the professions in the General Field was Air Police. That's what I wanted. I knew then I wanted Law Enforcement as a profession.
My dad had a different idea. He wanted me to go into the Administrative Field. His reasoning was that I could learn a trade there and have options when I got out. He said you can still go into law enforcement after your service if you still want it. When I came home after 3 years in Germany, I still wanted it. In January 1965 I joined the Durham Police Department. After working there for 3 years, I applied for the North Carolina Highway Patrol. I was turned down due to eyesight not being 20/20. A few years later, that requirement was lowered to "corrected" 20/20. Not wanting to give up, I re-applied and my eyesight was found to be 20/20. In 1972 I was accepted to attend NCSHP Basic Patrol School at the Institute of Government in Chapel Hill NC.
I had been warned by Troopers I worked along side as a Police Officer that the school was tough. No one could have told me how tough. Highway Patrol School was much harder than the military basic training I had completed years before. For anyone considering the Patrol as a career be warned; if you don't want it more than anything else in your life, you will not stay. The instructors will run you away. That will be proved in some of the following stories.
Just trying to make it home...
One clear Monday night I received a radio call to check on a vehicle that was in the middle of Powhatan Road in Johnston County with the motor running. Upon arriving, I found a 1968 dark green Chevrolet with the engine racing. A small-framed man in his mid 50's occupied the Chevy. I stopped my patrol car behind him, turned on my blue light and got out. As I approached his car, I noticed his window was rolled up, his lights were on, and he was staring straight ahead. His foot had the accelerator pressed to the floor and his gearshift lever was in park. With the engine running full speed, there was a cloud of smoke behind him. I stood outside his car for a moment and watched him. His gaze straight ahead never changed. I tapped on his window with my hand. He momentarily looked at me and went straight back to the road ahead. I tapped a second time and this time he took his foot off the accelerator and slammed it down on the brake. I motioned for him to roll his window down which he did. I asked him where he was going. He replied in a slurred, drunken voice, "I'm just trying to make it home sir." "Well you are not doing a very good job of that," I replied. "Why don't you come ride with me?" He said, "Yes Sir! Anything you say Sir!"
I helped the very inebriated gentleman from his car and escorted him to the passenger side of my patrol vehicle. I knew I would have to leave him unattended in my car while I moved his car from the roadway. I told him I was going to move his car from the road and asked him, "Do I need to handcuff you or will you behave?" I'll do anything you say Sir," was his response. I decided not to handcuff him and after searching him, placed him in the passenger front seat of my patrol car. I said, "You sit right here while I move your car from the road." "Yes sir, anything you say sir!" he said. I moved his vehicle to the shoulder of the road, locked the doors and returned to my car where he was patiently waiting. I handed him his car keys, which he put in his pocket. "Thank you Sir," he said. I placed him under arrest for driving while intoxicated and told him we would have to go to Smithfield for a Breathalyzer test to be administered. "Yes sir, anything you say sir!" was his response.
We arrived at the Smithfield Police Department and I helped him inside. Once in the breathalyzer room, I told him to have a seat. "Yes sir, anything you say sir!" While waiting for the breathalyzer test to be given, I asked the gentleman the questions on the Alcohol Influence Report Form. The AIR form has a series of questions to be used for court purposes to show the degree of intoxication. Questions are asked such as name, address, birth date, what were you doing during the last two hours, how much have you had to drink, where were you going, where had you been, how long have you been drinking, when was the last time you ate, what did you eat, what town are you in now, what time is it, what day of the week is it etc. He answered each of the questions with a degree of difficulty, but as honestly and openly as he could. Although he was extremely intoxicated, he was as pleasant and cordial as any drunk I had previously arrested. Every response from him was Yes Sir, anything you say sir. The breathalyzer test was completed and his blood alcohol reading was .30, which was three times over the limit, (.10 at that time).
With the results of the test in hand, I escorted him to the magistrate's office next door. The magistrate's office was equipped with a 4-foot high counter that went from wall to wall. The magistrate's desk was behind this counter. It was the usual procedure for the magistrate to inquire as to the arrested person's demeanor so as to determine whether a bond could be set so that a family member or friend could take a person home or whether they needed to sleep a while in jail. The magistrate asked me how Mr. Chambers had been conducting himself and if he had given me any trouble. Before I could tell the magistrate how good Mr. Chambers had conducted himself, he suddenly bolted to the top of the counter. While standing and wobbling on top of the counter, he pointed his finger at the magistrate and said in a drunken and slurred voice, "Let me tell you one Damn thing buddy." "Oh no," I thought, "Here we go." This guy has been just as nice as any one could be and now, at the last minute he is going to break bad." Mr. Chambers continued, "Any Son of a #%**@ that can walk up to my car going 60 mph and ask me where I'm going, do you think I am going to give him any trouble!?"
When E.F. Hutton Talks...
It was a beautiful, sunny Easter Sunday afternoon. As on most holidays, law enforcement was out in full force. The Troopers working the day shift had come to the district office to do their weekly reports. The Troopers working the late shift were coming in to fuel their patrol vehicles for the night ahead. With the majority of our district at the district office, we heard a call from our dispatcher. "Any car in the vicinity of I-95 north of Fayetteville?" Our office is located less than one mile from I-95 and about 50 miles north of Fayetteville. She had hit the jackpot. There were at least ten troopers at the office with others on the way. The dispatcher continued, "Car 100 is in pursuit traveling north on I-95 from Fayetteville." Car 100 is the Colonel and commander of the entire State Highway Patrol. "Any car in position, please advise," she said. One of our guys told her of the number of cars at the office and that we were responding. For some reason, the excitement I guess, most all officers enjoy getting involved in a pursuit. Therefore, not only were there SHP cars responding, but local police departments and the sheriff's department had heard the call on their monitors and were responding as well. The SHP cars drove the short distance to I-95 at its intersection with US 701.
When we arrived, we saw that traffic was extremely heavy with the Easter travelers. By the time we arrived, the Colonel, who was driving an unmarked patrol car, was close enough to talk directly to us a car to car. He said, "I am in pursuit of a yellow Camaro. We are traveling north on I-95 in excess of 80 MPH." The speed limit was 55 MPH. We decided with the traffic as heavy as it was we would place patrol cars on the shoulder and in the median of I-95 with blue lights flashing and just wait. Several troopers were standing in the roadway directing traffic through our checkpoint. Of course by this time, the traffic had slowed considerably. There were approximately 20 to 30 law enforcement vehicles and just as many officers gathered at this intersection. It created quite a spectacle.
When the yellow Camaro finally rolled up to the checkpoint, the astonished driver asked, "Have you guys had a bank robbery or what?" "No," I said, "We are waiting for you." "Why me?" he asked. "Well," I said, "It seems the Colonel is trying to get you stopped. He has been trying to stop you since you left Fayetteville." The driver replied, "I had no idea he was even back there. I may have been speeding, but I certainly wasn't trying to evade him." We had him to pull over to the shoulder of the roadway to wait for the Colonel to come through. While we were waiting he asked, "Why are there so many officers here?" "Have you ever heard of E.F. Hutton?" I asked. He said, "Yes sir, he is the guy who talks and people listen. "Well, that guy in the unmarked car is our E.F. Hutton!"

EAST GREENBUSH, NY (02/04/2012)(readMedia)-- Maple Ski Ridge goes Green February 4th & 5th as they take up the fight with The Green Drakkoman Foundation against childhood cancer.
Maple Ski Ridge is teaming up with The Green Drakkoman Foundation to turn the ridge green in a 24 hour ski and snowboarding marathon. This is a Ski or Snowboard marathon that challenges participants to compete for the most runs to raise funds for The Green Drakkoman Foundation. This event has created a lot of support and Maple will be offering 2 hour and 7 hour events so that all ages can participate in the event.
The Green Drakkoman foundation is not a group of retired super heroes but a group of LOCAL people who knew and loved a little child who lost his battle with childhood cancer. A little child named Ben Stowell, created more in his short life with motivation and dedication each day as he fought his fight against a faceless disease. Ben Stowell's vision and own hand created the character that is the logo for the drakkomanfoundation and serves as an inspiration to his courage.
This year Maple Ski Ridge is asking everyone to battle childhood cancer as they take ski or snowboard runs that share in Ben's honor as they turn the Ridge Green for the Day. Ben Stowell's courage and ability to motivate his friends and family inspired the Maple Ski Ridge family to join in the fight.
"This allows the very young and those who are short on time to join in the festivities and help the cause," states Kate Michener, special events coordinator at Maple Ski Ridge. "Since our business here primarily deals with children this also lets us follow our hearts. The Challenge starts at noon on Saturday the 4th and ends Sunday the 5th. All 24 hour participants are treated to a buffet dinner, midnight snacks and breakfast. Some of the food is donated by our suppliers. Every year they (suppliers and skiers) ask if we are still doing our 24 hour event, they want to support us because they like to support the local community and are just good at heart. We don't want anyone to worry because we also make sure the kids stay hydrated. The volunteer ski patrol is on duty for the entire event and the area is monitored both inside and out. The kids that attend the event are watched after and treated as our own, some of them even are our own children".
Registration and donation forms can be found on http://winter.mapleskiridge.com/terrain-park/ or call the lodge at 518-381-4700.

Schauer Financial grew out of the Canton, Ohio life insurance agency founded by Alfred T. Schauer in 1919. After World War II, it experienced exponential growth under son Tom's skill and dedication, and eventually branched into different companies now operated by Alfred's grandchildren and great-grandchildren. In the mid-1970s, the United States Congress passed the landmark ERISA legislation that was the birth of modern retirement plans, and Tom's company (operating as Independent Benefit Service then) grew into a successful retirement planning and administration firm. In 1995, Alan Schauer purchased the firm, and by the turn of the new millennium, Schauer Financial had evolved into a broad-based financial services practice. In 2003, the Company sold the retirement plan service operation and relocated to Cincinnati, Ohio.

Luis Lawrie-Lattanzio's young rollercoaster journey leads to personal growth and reflection
After hitting a wall in Melbourne, South Australia's only active indigenous male professional footballer, Luis Lawrie-Lattanzio, took a plunge to play football on the other side of the world. Lattanzio shared experiences from his young career and opened up about his pride in his indigenous identity in an exclusive interview with Front Page Football.

Canada is different from where Australian football fans would expect one of their footballers to play. But that was the destination for South Australia's Lawrie-Lattanzio in the previous six months of his career.
"The lifestyle is pretty similar, to be fair; thankfully, we speak the same language; otherwise, I'd be in trouble," Lawrie-Lattanzio joked to FPF.
At only 20, Lawrie-Lattanzio may be in the infancy of his career. But he already has a wealth of experience from his short but eventful football journey.
Playing for Adelaide United is something all up-and-coming South Australian footballers dream of doing. To be involved in the Reds' youth program and win silverware for its Reserves is something the young winger remembers fondly. His performances in this period led to a call-up to the 2019 FIFA U17 World Cup in Brazil.
"Those were some of my best times enjoying football. I was young, we were playing a lot, and we were all friends in the team representing our hometown club as juniors. It was an honour, really, winning in the Reserves, doing well in the NPL, and getting an opportunity to go to the World Cup was the outcome of that success, I guess," Lawrie-Lattanzio said.

Admiring Lawrie-Lattanzio's rise to prominence from afar, fellow A-Leagues side Melbourne Victory acquired his services. After the youngster impressed in the National Youth League, winning the Y-League Victory Medal and the TAC Y-League Golden Boot, he was signed on as part of the senior squad.
On the surface, it was another promising player earning a professional contract. But this move meant Lawrie-Lattanzio followed in the footsteps of fellow South Australian indigenous players Fred Agius and Travis Dodd in playing professional football.
Despite this chapter being an exciting one for Lawrie-Lattanzio personally, Victory was undergoing a period of turmoil on the pitch. Uncertainty in the coaching ranks led to poor performances and a wooden spoon-winning season.
Tony Popovic's move to Melbourne the following season saw the side regain its stature as a premier club in Australia, winning the Australia Cup in the process. But it meant Lawrie-Lattanzio and others in the periphery of the squad had less involvement due to the new coaches' incoming signings.
Despite facing a tough time on and off the pitch in Melbourne, Lawrie-Lattanzio left Victory with no regrets and described playing for the club as an "honour."
"I know I did play during one of the roughest patches the club has ever had, and it doesn't go unnoticed, but it is what it is. It was terrible losing and coming last, it was not what the club had planned and not what I expected, but that's how the tables turned and how things worked out," Lawrie-Lattanzio said.
"I don't look back at anything with regret. I am happy with how it went for me personally because I believe everything happens for a reason; it was a good lesson to look back on."
Leaving Melbourne Victory with a severe lack of game time, Lawrie-Lattanzio was desperate for regular football again, returning to South Australia and signing for NPL SA club Campbelltown City. But after only two appearances, an opportunity arose to sign for Canadian Premier League side York United FC.
The winger spent a few months in Canada and occasionally played an unfamiliar role at wingback. But the most important thing about his spell in Toronto was that he started enjoying his football again after a long stretch of frustration back home.
"I enjoyed my football which is the main thing, because before playing the two games for Campbelltown, before moving to Toronto, my last game was four or five months before that. The biggest thing for me was getting game time, getting back to what I do and what I know I can do," Lawrie-Lattanzio said.
For an Australian to play professional football in two different countries at only 20 years old is quite an achievement, especially for an indigenous footballer, currently a rarity in South Australia.
Becoming the only active male indigenous professional footballer was a source of pride for Lawrie-Lattanzio, mainly when reflecting on his mother's role in the community.
"It's an honour. It's a big thing for me to represent who I am and where my blood is from. My mum is a newly appointed Commissioner for Aboriginal Children & Young People. She is heavily involved with her people, culture, and belonging, so for her son to carry that representation is something special," he said.
Lawrie-Lattanzio enjoyed football growing up, but it had to compete with AFL and athletics for his attention. For years, AFL eventually won out in the battle for up-and-coming athletes because of its investment in grassroots. The winger even admitted that it could have been the case for him if it wasn't for his father's influence.
Football is only starting to dabble in its indigenous development in South Australia, and Lawrie-Lattanzio has noticed the effort. He shared that as his career progresses, he would be honoured to be involved in developing young indigenous footballers.
"You can have academies and specialised groups because there is definitely talent, but it needs to be found and refined, and that's with any sport. There are academies now in South Australia, for example, run by Travis Dodd, which is a start for something that's never been around. It is very good for young aboriginal athletes," he said.
"If I could help in supporting an industry that hasn't been worked with as much and create something and help children, what more could you ask for? It is something that I would, of course, want to do."
Representation matters. Wherever Lawrie-Lattanzio's career takes him next, and as football in South Australia increases its commitment to its indigenous communities, he can inspire the next generation of indigenous children. He is a player with a similar background, playing the sport professionally, and has represented his country.

We Were Counting On You, Bake Off: GBBO 2016 Reviewed
Oct 26, 2016 / Culture
2016 has been weird. We probably should have known something fishy was afoot when Bowie and Prince both checked out within a couple of months of each other. They knew what was coming; they didn't fancy it. See you later, earthlings – good luck, stay safe, bon voyage. One big fat Brexit and a side order of The Donald later, we find ourselves in October, most confused. Just when you think you have 2016 sussed, it throws you another expectation-boggling curveball. Take this morning, for instance, when it was announced that Ice Cube will play Fagin in a Disney remake of Charles Dickens's Oliver Twist. The angry one from NWA and the Jump Street Franchise? Yeah, that Ice Cube. Oh. Right. Should have seen that one coming. Silly me.
Well, at least we have Bake Off, right? Thank heavens for Bake Off, with its warmth, loveliness and familiar structure. When everything else around us is subverting reality, we can count on Mary Berry and co. to provide us with a much-needed dose of predictable tranquillity, can't we.
Can't we??????????
Bake Off is a national institution. The pleasure is in its inevitability. People will bake cakes on national television, and other people will judge them. During both the baking and the judging, two people will fill the gaps with regular doses of good old Great British humour. After each weekly helping of baking, judging and aforementioned humour, one of the bakers will be crowned as the worst baker and sent back to the reality the rest of us occupy. Because Bake Off isn't reality, you see. The now-iconic marquee isn't situated in one of the greener parts of the Home Counties; that's what they want you to believe. No. Bake Off is separate to what we know as time and space. It exists four-dimensionally, outside of our conception of the everyday. A bit like heaven, a bit like Hogwarts, and a bit like being on acid. That's a subject for another day, though. We're not talking about Bake Off's role in the matrix. We're talking about Bake Off's cathartic stability. Regardless of what the rest of the world might be doing, Bake Off will forever remain lovely – unruffled, undisturbed and unchanged.
Or will it?????????????
No, actually. No it fucking well won't. Nope, no, nada. Not this time. Bake Off's gone and done it as well, for fuck's sake. Just when you thought there was one thing you could rely on in a climate of imploding uncertainty, Bake Off goes and punches you straight in the feelings, too.
"The BBC has lost the rights to broadcast the Great British Bake Off"
"From next year, the Great British Bake Off will be on Channel Four"
"Mel and Sue will not be presenting next year's Great British Bake Off"
"Mary Berry's off too"
"You're keeping Paul Hollywood, though."
And just like that, the faintest flicker of hope you'd managed to preserve was blown out, whimpering. Bake Off, as you know it, is no more.
This article was supposed to be a preview for tonight's final. But what's the point? Tonight's final is like the penultimate dinner date between you and your long-term partner, at the bitter end of a dying relationship. Both of you know what's coming. Both of you agree that it's pointless you being there. Both of you low-key hate each other. Regardless, you've assumed a state of pseudo-ignorance, choosing to temporarily disregard that in a month's time, it'll all be dead. This evening, we'll sit down with a cup of tea and watch Andrew, Jane and Candice battle it out, but it's all just part of the long goodbye.
Had soon-to-be Channel Four's Bake Off kept the BBC line-up, we might have been able to avoid all of this. Yeah, it would have been a little odd, but things change all the time. Not all stepmothers have to be nasty and evil. As a new parent, Channel Four might have been alright. Not on 2016's watch. Instead, Mel, Sue and beautiful, delicate Mary made the honourable decision to stay loyal to their channel. They wouldn't be joining the new show. Guess who would be, though? Yep – that's right: ol' blue eyes himself, Paul Hollywood. To recycle the analogy about a doomed relationship, that's like breaking up with a long-term partner and being told 'I'm taking the house, cars, dog, cat and everything else that we as a unit held dear together, but you can keep this old Phil Collins album that came free with the hi-fi." If Mary Berry is Times New Roman, then Paul Hollywood is Comic Sans. If he wasn't a famous baking television show judge, he'd been an area manager for BMW. Mary Berry embodied everything that was wonderful about Bake Off. Her surname's Berry, for fuck's sake. She's sweet. You could place her on the top of a cheese cake, or pick her on a warm summer's day. Could you do that with a Hollywood? Could you fuck. Of course he's making the jump to Channel Four.
You know what, this might even have had to happen if Selasi was still in it. A Selasi final would have been a nicer final. With 2016 and all of its bewildering malevolence, he was never going to win, but we had a good run with him anyway. Selasi was funny. Selasi was brave. Selasi was sexy. So incredibly and unwaveringly sexy. Selasi only has to look at a woman to make her pregnant. Selasi only has to look at a man to make him pregnant. Selasi is a one man fertiliser. He is single-handedly destroying the earth through over-population. You can't hate him, though – because he's just so bloody nice. If you punched him in the face, he'd apologise. Then, he'd make you fall in love with him. You'd feel awful, falling in love with Selasi having just clocked him one in the jaw, but he'd tell you not to worry. "These things happen," he'd say, while whipping up a fresh batch of cookies.
Val, too. Val, Val, Val. You were the hero we needed but didn't deserve. I hope you're happy, Val – wherever you are. I hope that you are comfortable. And warm. And that you have access to everything you need. You were too pure for us, Val – you and Selasi. It's no wonder you're friends. You're better than us. You're better than this. You two were meant for a nicer time.
So good luck, Andrew, Jane and Candice. I'm sure you're all perfectly fine. But know that your victory will be a hollow, empty one. 2016 has been a very strange kind of year, and this has been a very 2016 Bake Off. Maybe, one day, we'll look back on it all and laugh, but at the moment it's all just too raw. We were counting on you, Bake Off. We were really, really counting on you.

"We are Not an Ethnic Vote!" Representational Perspectives of Minorities in the Greater Toronto Area
Minorities from different ethnic groups have different preferences for how they would like to be represented by elected officials. These preferences depend on various contexts and are influenced by the minority groups' historical experiences, collective resources, and voting power at the polls.
Karen Bird
Bird, K. (2015). "We are Not an Ethnic Vote!" Representational Perspectives of Minorities in the Greater Toronto Area. Canadian Journal of Political Science, 1-31. doi:10.1017/s0008423915000256
Ethnic minority, political representation, Canadian political system, Greater Toronto Area, GTA, MP
The way citizens, especially minorities, want to be represented by elected officials in Canada has largely been neglected by Canadian political scientists. The purpose of this research is to examine how minorities in the Greater Toronto Area (an urban and highly diverse setting) evaluate political actors' claims to represent them, and to look at the objections citizens raise in the face of such claims.
Political representation has multiple components: the accountability of elected officials; the extent to which representatives resemble those being represented; the activity of representatives; and what the representative means for those being represented. To examine the importance of each component from the minorities' perspective, the researcher interviewed nine focus groups that included black, South-Asian, and Chinese Canadians. Participants were asked a series of questions concerning their views on representation, including their opinion on the effectiveness of local politicians in addressing the needs in the local community and whether the politicians can be trusted to represent the minorities. The investigator also compared the three communities to assess similarities and differences in their experiences and preferences regarding political representation.
The researcher found that:
The components that are important and that incite feelings of being represented vary. For instance, in contexts where language is an issue, having a representative who shares one's ethno-cultural identity matters most.
When considering good representation, participants often placed greater emphasis on the quality of contact and communication with their elected representatives in their communities over the policies the MPs are trying to develop.
The vast majority of participants wanted MPs to make their own decisions instead of following majority preferences in the constituency. That is, they expected the elected representative to act as a "trustee" rather than a "delegate" of citizens' interests, and that this approach to representation would better protect minority rights.
Large differences exist across ethnic groups in their views of how important it is that representatives resemble them. Most participants support having more members of their ethnic group in Parliament, but few felt that this would lead to different policy outcomes. Participants mainly focused on accessibility and a sense of comfort with same-ethnic elected officials and the communicative benefits that come from having this kind of official.
Participants also recognized the dangers of placing too much trust on ethnically similar MPs. Some were concerned about the tokenistic role of such representatives, and feared that it could not address the deeper sources of marginalization and exclusion facing their community. Others were more confident that their community can hold the MPs accountable at the polls.
By gaining a better understanding of minorities' reasoning and logic for accepting or rejecting representative claims, policymakers and politicians can understand and improve the quality of representative democracy in Canada. This research also provides important information for developing better approaches to political representation and responsiveness that can help minorities feel included in our political system rather than feel manipulated by political elites.

Good Publicity
"Pilate had a notice prepared and fastened to the cross. It read: JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS…and the sign was written in Aramaic, Latin, and Greek."
John 19:19-20 (NIV)
The President of the United States knows the power of the media. All political leaders like to be in the public eye, but he does so by saying things that are controversial, unorthodox, or unpredictable, using his personal Twitter account to do so. And sometimes he uses a grand moment in history, such as his recent meeting with the leader of North Korea.
Significant as this meeting was, however, it cannot claim to be the most important event in human history. To Christians, that accolade must go to a different event that was also unexpected, amazing, and controversial: the ignominious death by crucifixion of a man who claimed to be not only King of the Jews, but also the very Son of God! At Jesus' death, he was "despised and rejected by mankind" (Isaiah 53:3), forsaken by his followers, and mocked by the religious establishment. He suffered disgrace and humiliation, but he did not die anonymously, and unnoticed.
Crucifixions were a fairly regular occurrence in Roman times, and I suspect Roman governors took little interest in them, far less taking the trouble to have individual victims publicly named. Yet in this case Pilate had a notice prepared which publicly named Jesus, unashamedly proclaiming his title as King of the Jews, and, most surprising of all, this was written in Aramaic, Latin, and Greek—all the major languages of the day. If the objective was to make Jesus' identity and death known to as many people as possible, it seems to have worked because: "Many of the Jews read this sign" (John 19:20). Rather good publicity, wasn't it? And of course it was reinforced by the supernatural time of darkness that afternoon, the earthquake that followed, and the raising to life of "many holy people" who went into Jerusalem and "appeared to many" (Matthew 27:51-53).
To be in the public eye is something that political leaders of all descriptions try to achieve. But when the most important event in all human history took place, it did not happen anonymously or in secret, nor was it hushed up. It was accompanied by considerably publicity. And we can be very glad that it was!
Great Father, thank you so much that the greatest demonstration in all time of your vast love for humanity, Jesus' death on the cross, was widely witnessed and recorded. That was as it should be, and it helps considerably in spreading the gospel today.

One of the greatest things the Holy Spirit wants to do in the life of the believer is to empower his or her witness. The word for power in this verse comes from the Greek word dunamis, from which we get the words dynamite, dynamic, and dynamo. God didn't give us the power of the Holy Spirit to feel something, but to accomplish something.
Sometimes the Holy Spirit's power acts like dynamite in our lives, blasting us with zeal, jolting us out of complacency, and motivating us to greater spiritual growth. At other times, God's Spirit is like a dynamic, generating power that will help us live from day to day at a level we could not achieve on our own.
Often times, when we are not reaching our goals we think that God isn't with us or that we aren't being empowered by the Holy Spirit. We end up stuck, waiting to feel something, waiting for this big push; and yes the Holy Spirit manifests itself in our life and in the lives of others in such a manner. But in thinking that way, our motives become self-centred and not Christ-centred.
I think of how far the Lord had brought me, from one day to another. Sometimes, it doesn't look like there is much action or dynamic going on, but I know and am assured that there is an extraordinary force, a power, behind my every move. Our heavenly Father is ever-present, omniscient and equips us in the day to day. He truly does help us to live daily at a level we CANNOT achieve on our own.
With this revelation, I don't have an excuse. I shouldn't. And neither should you.
Previous postYou don't love me. You never did.


You may or may not know this but I suffer from OCD. Why am I telling you this?
Because I hate odd numbers, yet here I am writing a post with FIVE reasons about judging others.
Doesn't matter, I wrote another post with a list of 7 and a different one with a list of 5.
There we go. Now we have 12. Seeing as I love patterns, I can write another post of seven.
Let me start by asking you this question first. How many people have you judged this week?
We have all judged and been judged. It might be over small things, or over bigger issues. Regardless, we do it. The question is why?
We use other people as mirrors on which to base our essential view of the world and ourselves.
Do you ever judge someone then realise you do the same thing? Yes? This is because often our judgements on others show our weaknesses, soft-spots, and insecurities. Most judgments we make about people are based on lack of information. We make assumptions and judgments based on what we see, not on facts.
Admit it. It feels good to judge people at times. I'll give you an example.
You are out somewhere in public with your toddler who just happens to be on his/her best behaviour. No crying, no tantrums, lots of smile hugs and kisses.
A few meters (or feet) from where you are, you spot a mom with a toddler – hers is screaming and crying, rolling on the floor has juice running down the front of his/ her shirt and you think to yourself, "hmmmmm….I must be doing a GREAT job as a mother. Better than her." You smile to yourself, then to your little "angel". Judgement.
I believe you teach your mind what to think and repeat back to you. You tell your mind you are fat, every day that is what you will think to yourself and believe. Tell your mind you are fantastic, and you will believe it (don't overdo it on this one – for risk of sounding too cocky)!
This might be the biggest reason we judge others by their outer appearance.
We make assumptions about them and about their lives based on what the media has planted into our minds. For example, being thin and beautiful = success. Or affluence = happiness.
Even though in our hearts we know this is untrue, our minds bring us to judge those who do not live up to our 'standards'.
We all feel insecure about something or another. We often discuss people to feel better about ourselves. This is highly noticeable among middle and high school kids. Sadly, some continue this habit into adulthood. When you talk about someone else, most people will willingly join in the conversation to add their two cents. This is where a sense of bonding comes in with judgment.
People we know anything about. We have no insight into why they dress, act, or talk the way they do. All we know is that we see something about them that we consider being 'wrong', 'different' or 'inappropriate' – and in walks in judgement.
What does judgement do to you and others?
Don't judge choices without understanding the reasons.
What can you do to judge less (we cannot stop this all together)?
When you hear yourself criticizing someone, take a step back and ask yourself, do I see these traits in myself? Do I exhibit the same behaviour? What do I know about this person? Am I being fair?
This is what is often called a pattern interrupt,which is a technique to change a particular thought, behavior or situation.
Remember how it feels to be judged. It doesn't feel good to judge or be judged so try to remember this the next time you are judging or criticizing someone. Try to open the door of your heart to expand your awareness and self-acceptance.
We all have a story, and you never know when you might find yourself walking in the very shoes of a person you have judged.
Do you find yourself judging others? Or are you constantly being judged by family, friends, co-workers?
Share your experiences with me below.


Our annual scholarship program - which awards two scholarships of $1,000 each - is among the ways we work to show our appreciation of law enforcement and promote this valuable career.
Funding grassroots projects focused on working with you and helping grow great kids in our local communities.
A day we'll never forget. A man we'll always remember.
It is through their eyes that we see the future.
Those who have made the ultimate sacrifice.
In 1996, three young men who had just robbed a liquor store took the life of St. Joseph, Minnesota, Police Officer Brian Klinefelter. That course of events forever changed the lives of his family and his friends. It left them with nagging thought: It didn't have to turn out that way.
Please consider donating to the Brian Klinefelter Foundation, your support is greatly needed and much appreciated.

fe, Alfred was surrounded by science. His father taught him basic principles of engineering and explosives, this went on to be his main interests later in life. Alfred grew up in Stockholm, Sweden, born: 21st October 1833. However, his family moved to Saint Petersburg in 1842 due to his father's various business failures. Once in the city his father became successful as a manufacturer of tools and explosives. Now wealthy, Alfred's parents were able to send him to private tutors and he excelled in his studies, specifically chemistry and languages. Fun fact: Alfred Nobel was fluent in English, French, German, Russian and of course Swedish. In 1850, Alfred moved to Paris to continue his studies. He met Ascanio Sobrero, who invented nitroglycerin 3 years earlier. Alfred was intrigued by the instability of Nitroglycerin and went to America to research further. After the Crimean War (1853-1856) Alfred's father had difficulty switching back to domestic production, so he declared the company bankrupt. In 1859, Immanuel ( his father ) handed the company down to his second son, Ludvig Nobel who went on to greatly improve the business. Nobel devoted himself to the obdurate study of explosives, especially the safe manufacture and use of nitroglycerin. On the 3rd of September 1864, part of a nitroglycerin factory exploded in Heleneborg, Stockholm, killing 5 people including Alfred's younger brother Emil. However, Alfred continued building factories and developing new technology, unfazed by this. Finally in 1866 Nobel invented dynamite. A more stable compound of Nitroglycerin and Diatomaceous earth, which is a soft rock mostly made of fossilised algae. He moulded it into cylinder shaped sticks and used blasting caps (which he invented a few years earlier) to allow for the safe ignition of such a powerful explosive. He lived the rest of his life being showered in awards from multiple universities and had an award named after him, The Nobel Prize. He was very rich and his money ended up being used to fund these yearly prizes that bear his name. Alfred was a lonely person, he never made a family of his own or got married. He had an interest in literature and often wrote poetry, novels and plays. He once wrote, "Numerous friends are to be found only among dog>

Q: Convert Normal water to cool instantly Is it possible to convert the hot/normal water to cold steam instantly(may be within 1/2hr) without using refrigerators etc. If yes, how far can the cold steam travel. I am not sure with all the fluid mechanic concepts, but a curious question in mind. For instance, If I have a 1000ltr tank of moderate water and I need to convert it to cold water which generates cold fumes/steam and pass that steam at 10m distance. Not specific to physics but, chemical related solutions are also appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

There hasn't been much success in Jacksonville in both the NFL and fantasy football. Not too many Jaguars have been drafted, but last year there were still a few bright spots here and there from Jacksonville. This year could be the same cast of characters, including a little more from a very familiar face.
Blaine Gabbert - Unless you're playing in a two quarterback league and you wait way too long on your second quarterback, Gabbert should not be on any fantasy football roster. Things will not get better this season for him or the Jaguars as a whole so there really isn't any fantasy value here. If Gabbert is on your roster, you've probably already lost for the season.
Maurice Jones-Drew - It's hard to get a read on Mojo coming off the Lisfranc injury that sidelined him since week 7 of last season. He's a year older, coming off a major foot injury and returning to a abysmal situation in Jacksonville. He's basically been the only offense on the Jaguars for some time now. He's currently going in the second round of most drafts and that may be a value if he can return to his days when he was winning the rushing title.(And when we say "the days" we mean 2011. You know, in olden times.) If you can get him at a good value in your draft do so but buyer beware. He could be a complete disaster just like the rest of the team.
Cecil Shorts - The good news is Shorts came out of nowhere last season to become a fantasy darling. The bad news is he did so with Chad Henne as the quarterback. I like Shorts again this year and wouldn't be surprised if the production is there despite the poor play at quarterback. He should be drafted as a receiver three with two potential. With the suspension of Justin Blackmon for the first quarter of the season, Shorts will probably be the beneficiary of most of his targets. There is upside to Shorts but Gabbert could hold him back a bit.
Marcedes Lewis - Two years ago, Lewis was a Pro Bowl tight end. Last year he was a major disappointment. This year he could be a disappointment again. He's best suited as a waiver wire pickup to fill a bye week but other than that, he probably won't do much for your march to a fantasy football championship.
Chad Henne - To be honest with you, Henne should be the starting quarterback for the Jaguars. While he holds no value whatsoever for fantasy at this point, should Gabbert suffer an injury or just lose his job Henne would be a decent option at quarterback for those that are desperate. Just don't expect him to help you for more than a couple of weeks if he becomes the Jaguars starter.
D/ST - It may sound ridiculous, but the Jacksonville defense was a solid fantasy unit last year. While I wouldn't go and draft them, there is potential here. Maybe if your league starts two defenses or bye weeks come up you may roster them but other than that, I wouldn't put too much stock in this squad. I would however keep an eye on them just in case you need a defense in a hurry. Make sure you play the matchup with them though. They won't be effective every week.

Q: URLSessionDataTask ignores URLRequest's httpMethod property I'm having this bizarre problem in which I cannot do a simple POST request to a REST service I do not control based on GraphQL.
The problem is that no matter what I set in the httpMethod property of the URLRequest class, it always uses GET instead.
I have done a few tests to discard some problems. For example, I set up a header in the Request and I can verify that the header is being sent to the server (verified with Charles Proxy).
This is the code you can paste and run in a Playground:
import PlaygroundSupport
import Foundation
PlaygroundPage.current.needsIndefiniteExecution = true

let url = URL(string: "http://graphql.anilist.co/")!
let internalSession = URLSession(configuration: .default)
var request = URLRequest(url: url)
request.httpMethod = "POST"
let headers = ["content-type": "application/json"]
request.allHTTPHeaderFields = headers
request.httpBody =

Obtained Result
Instead, I get this:

    "errors": [
        {
            "message": "Not Found.",
            "hint": "Use POST request to access graphql subdomain.",
            "status": 404
        }
    ]
}

The service complains that the request is a GET request and should be POST, and I am explicitly telling URLRequest to use POST instead. If you look at the request in Charles or another proxy, you will indeed see that the request is being done as a GET request, and the httpBody property is being discarded. If you edit the headers and add another header, like so:
let headers = ["content-type": "application/json", "foo": "bar"]

You will see in your proxy that the header is being properly sent.
The only conclusion I can arrive is that there is an internal problem with URLSessionDataTask that forces to do GET requests only. I tried changing it to to a download task, but the same problem is happening. So there must be a problem with my code, but I cannot find it.
EDIT:
Per request, this is the request Postman uses. I have exported the request to CURL to make it easily importable.
curl -X POST \

GIN GIN is a take-away flavoured Gin and Tonic, without the faff. I created my own brand as there are no other Gin companies that are branding themselves along similar lines applicable for the brief: Fun, illustration, modern twist on a classic drink.

The only time that the camera can reproduce is time that has already been spent—a sad but beautiful fact that makes it the perfect canvas to convey the frozen, immobilized population of crisis-stricken Greece.
It's a crisis, yes—but parallel to what?
A crisis (from the Greek word, κρίσις) is a decisive point. It is any event that is expected to lead to instability, to change, often towards danger. This could be in the case of an individual or a group or even a whole society.
Mostly, crises are thought to tend in negative directions, especially as they often occur abruptly, with little warning. A security crisis results in fear. A political crisis usually leads to drastic changes in governance. An environmental crisis threatens humanity's future, while in contemporary Greece, the population faces a grave economic crisis. A crisis is a time of testing, a trial by fire. The moment before full-on emergency.
It is said that photography happens to be the most naïve of all media because of its intention: namely, its desire to immobilize time. That is why photographs are usually beautiful but sad. The only time that the camera can reproduce is dead time, time that is already spent. For the past five years, Athens has changed dramatically: the once vibrant city has been transformed into a negative space, a plateau, wholly immobilized in time.
The very flow of life has changed for its citizens. Today, their time is not their own. It is a stolen and already used time (reminding us of the already spent time of photography). Whatever happens in the city, it remains there as a layer, resting upon other layers. These remnants are like wounds—wounds on a spot where the healing cannot be afforded. Athens is, by definition, a city-crisis.
One of photography's great disadvantages is also a privilege: the immobilization of photographic time makes it the perfect canvas to convey frozen moments, the no-way transits, the junkyards behind our houses, all the people waiting silently to sell their past lives away. Photography reaches its poetic destination when it can narrate the tale of an entrapped population. The story of those men whose time has been spent. An immobilized people.
"The Parallel Crisis" series is not a photo-documentary about the cities of today. Instead it constitutes a document of the future, a glimpse into the European cities of tomorrow. These cities are hidden from our perception but they are alive within the sprawl of (moving) time.
These photos represent the conditions of the mind. They show carcasses lying under the ancient sky of Attica. Sometimes clouded or dark, occasionally shining. This is the uneasy machine of (human) nature.

REVIEW: Dell's Latitude 13 ultrabook is minimalist in size and looks but not in functions, bringing together new features and security in a very thin computer.
Dell has the competition beat in terms of thickness and weight in the latest version of the Dell Latitude 13, model 7370 ultrabook. It's the thinnest of any business laptop I've looked at lately, and it's also the lightest.
The 7370 is so light partly because it has a 13-inch screen, so it's a smaller computer. But it's also a half-millimeter thinner than the HP EliteBook.
The result is a laptop that's surprisingly compact. But for Dell to get its business laptop that thin, the company had to make some design compromises. The most obvious change is a move to USB-C "Thunderbolt" ports for communications.
There is one USB 3.0 port, but the other ports are more compact, including a Micro HDMI port for video, a Micro SD slot for memory cards and a Micro SIM tray for cellular communications. If you want some other means of connecting, you'll need to use a docking station or a port replicator—of which Dell has a wide selection.
Because of the Latitude 13's smaller screen size and the resulting smaller chassis size, the keyboard is also slightly smaller, but the difference isn't as much as you might expect. Thanks to an efficient keyboard design, the width of the main typing surface on the Latitude 13 is only a quarter-inch smaller than the main typing surface of the HP EliteBook we also reviewed. The only obvious difference was the relocation of a row of subsidiary keys to a different location on the Latitude 13.
However, the quest for thinness has had an impact that has proved problematic. The height of the keys on the Latitude 13's keyboard are the same as the top of the palm rest. The primary impact is on the space bar, which is now difficult to press while typing.
This was one of the reasons why I didn't write the review of the Latitude 13 7370 on the machine itself, as I do with other laptops. However, I should also note that not everyone who I asked to try typing on this machine had the same problem I experienced with the keyboard.
But there was another reason: While I was using the machine, the Latitude crashed with the Blue Screen of Death—the very first of those I've seen on a Windows 10 machine. I contacted Dell's support staff and I researched the cause on the company's support site, and was led to download updated drivers for the Dell WD-15 Dock that I was using with the laptop.
Once the drivers were downloaded and installed, the machine took longer than an hour to reboot and the problem cleared. However, I didn't want to risk losing the work I was doing, so I wrote this review on a different computer.

Q: Watch height of an element in VueJS Is there any way to set a watcher on the height of an element in VueJS?
I am trying to fix the filters part on a search result page. but if the results change there is no way to find about it and unfix the filters.

A: You could use the ResizeObserver  and integrate it into your Vue-Component

function observeHeight() {
  const resizeObserver = new ResizeObserver(function() {
     console.log("Size changed");
  });

 resizeObserver.observe(document.getElementById('yourId'));
}

function changeHeight() {
  var elem = document.getElementById('yourId');

  console.log('...loading data...')
  setTimeout(function(){
    elem.style = "height: 200px";
  }, 3000);

}

observeHeight();
changeHeight();
#yourId {
  background-color: beige;
  height: 100px;
}
<div id="yourId">

</div>

A: You can get the height with $ref.yourElement.clientHeight, after the search result returns the data. With that, you can set the height as part of your data{} section, and from there apply a watcher. Check this example
new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  data: {
    height: 0
  },
  methods: {
    calculateHeight() {
      this.height = this.$refs.app.clientHeight;
    }
  }
});

A: If you are want to observe an element inside a component then use an arrow function:
observeHeight() {
      const resizeObserver = new ResizeObserver(() => {

        console.log('Size changed:', document.getElementById('elementId').clientHeight;);
      });

      resizeObserver.observe(document.getElementById('elementId'));
    }

Q: Importing Flask-SocketIO instance I am trying to integrate Flask-SocketIO into my application and having bad time. I don't understand how to pass SocketIO instance within the same context. Sorry i can't provide you with the exact code or error logs atm.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. If you have any questions regarding this ticket, feel free to ask.
run.py (<-- Application starts from here)
from app import app, socketio
socketio.run(app)

app/__init__.py
import json, stomp
from flask import Flask, render_template, jsonify, request
from app.dalet.DAPIDB import Handler
from flask.ext.bower import Bower
from flask_socketio import SocketIO

app = Flask(__name__)
socketio = SocketIO(app)
Bower(app)
with open('env.json') as data_file:
    app.config['locale'] = json.load(data_file)['locale']
app.config.from_object("config."+app.config['locale'])
API = Handler(app.config)

from app.dalet.LotusOrb import LotusOrb
conn = stomp.Connection()
conn.set_listener('', LotusOrb(API))
conn.start()
conn.connect('admin', 'admin', wait=True)
conn.subscribe('Mortred', 0)

app/dalet/LotusOrb.py
import stomp
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
from app import socketio

class LotusOrb(stomp.ConnectionListener):
    def __init__(self, API):
        self.API = API
    def on_error(self, headers, rawmessage):
        print('received an error "%s"' % rawmessage)
    def on_message(self, headers, rawmessage):
        socketio.emit('current_title', self.API.getduration(itemidmb))

Obviously enough, i just need to execute socketio.emit. Application boots up, but client-side JS doesn't show up any message. (I'm 100% sure in client JS, it works if i write code in app/init.py) There is no error in output whatsoever, the mistake is probably in instances of socketio variable.
What's wrong with my importing?
EDIT: I've updated code.

A: If you haven't already, you'll need to monkey patch the std libs according to whichever framework you're using to run your server:
# probably
from gevent import monkey; monkey.patch_all()
# or possibly
import eventlet; eventlet.monkey_patch()

I had a similar issue.
