"There's growing recognition from ICE that maybe detention is not appropriate for all of these folks," says Megan Bremer, a staff attorney at LIRS. Early successes aside, Bremer cautions that the arrangement is only temporary and currently receives zero government funding. "A lot of programs locally are running on a deficit. If it wasn't for all the volunteers providing time and services, the program would not be in existence."
Beyond the humanitarian concerns, the cost of detaining asylum seekers and other nonviolent immigrants creates an enormous burden for American taxpayers. The Department of Homeland Security budget for "custody operations" in the 2014 fiscal year is $1.84 billion. According to DHS' own estimates, if the agency used electronic ankle monitoring and other less-expensive alternatives instead of detention, the government could save more than $1.44 billion annually: a 78 percent reduction in costs.
Yet every day at airports and border crossings around the country, immigrants like Mohamed — who committed no crime beyond seeking a new lease on his life — are locked up for weeks, months, and even years. And if they are sent home, deportation can be tantamount to a death sentence.
The two most famous asylum seekers in recent history are Edward Snowden and Julian Assange, but those cases are hardly typical. The ex-National Security Agency contractor fled first to Hong Kong and then to Moscow after supplying journalists with a trove of information about controversial U.S. spy tactics; the WikiLeaks co-founder sought refuge in an Ecuadorian embassy in London amid fears he'd be extradited to Sweden to face sexual-assault charges. Perhaps the only thing these men have in common with the average asylum seeker in the United States is that they are stuck in legal limbo waiting to resolve their claims.
Unlike Snowden and Assange, the vast majority of asylum seekers are anonymous. In 2012, according to the United Nations, 45 million people worldwide forcibly were displaced owing to persecution and conflict. Though the majority became refugees, roughly 1 million sought political asylum. (The only difference between an asylum seeker and a refugee is location: Refugees typically remain near their homeland when they initiate the process, while asylum seekers arrive at their desired destination without prior authorization.)
Several ancient societies, including the Greeks, Hebrews, and Egyptians, respected the right of asylum, but the framework that exists today was established in 1951 to deal with millions of displaced people in the aftermath of World War II. As a party to the U.N. Convention Against Torture, the U.S. agreed to "not return refugees to countries where their life or freedom would be threatened and where they are more likely than not to be tortured." In the old days, asylum seekers rarely were detained.
With the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center, everything changed. Later that year, 60 Minutes broadcast a report emphasizing that Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman, the suspected mastermind behind the attack, had applied for asylum. The sound bite that stuck was provided by a representative from the Federation for American Immigration Reform, an anti-immigrant group: "Every single person on the planet Earth, if he gets into this country, can stay indefinitely by saying two magic words: 'political asylum.'"
In truth, Abdel Rahman had entered the United States on a tourist visa and received a green card despite his status on a terrorist watch list. He didn't apply for asylum until years later, and his claim ultimately was rejected. But the damage was done. According to a 1998 report on asylum by the Cato Institute, a libertarian think tank in Washington, the 60 Minutes segment "created the impression that few, if any, claims of asylum in the United States are legitimate." In the aftermath, federal agencies adopted more stringent standards for identification of asylum seekers (typically requiring a passport, birth certificate, or other form of ID) and imposed a minimum 180-day waiting period before issuing a work permit.
Unsatisfied with these reforms and reacting to a broader influx of undocumented immigrants, Congress passed a sweeping overhaul of the nation's immigration laws in 1996. The legislation set a one-year deadline for immigrants to apply for asylum and created an "expedited removal" process to swiftly deport anybody who arrives at a port of entry without proper documentation. For the first time in history, arriving asylum seekers were subject to mandatory detention.
"That became somewhat of a game-changer," says Annie Sovcik, director of the Washington office of the Center for Victims of Torture. "From there, you started to see an overall growth in the detention system itself, both in the number of people detained on a daily and annual basis, as well as in the different categories of people held."


In the days since the suicide of 26-year-old Internet activist Aaron Swartz, there has been no shortage of affecting words on his brilliant life. As the creator of RSS, a co-founder of Reddit, and a fighter for online freedom, Swartz filled the role of both friend and folk hero, as described in remembrances from the likes of Cory Doctorow, Lawrence Lessig, Glenn Greenwald, and many, many more. But in getting to know his legend — what he stood for and what he was up against — no writings are as revealing as Swartz's own, on topics as varied as mental health, worth ethic, and Batman. Below, a primer.
Thanks to Batman, society doesn't devolve into a self-interested war of all-against-all, as he apparently expects it to, but that doesn't mean anyone enjoys the trials.
1. Be curious. Read widely. Try new things. I think a lot of what people call intelligence just boils down to curiosity.
2. Say yes to everything. I have a lot of trouble saying no, to an pathological degree – whether to projects or to interviews or to friends. As a result, I attempt a lot and even if most of it fails, I've still done something.
3. Assume nobody else has any idea what they're doing either. A lot of people refuse to try something because they feel they don't know enough about it or they assume other people must have already tried everything they could have thought of. Well, few people really have any idea how to do things right and even fewer are to try new things, so usually if you give your best shot at something you'll do pretty well.
Every morning I wake up and check my email to see which one of my projects has imploded today, which deadlines I'm behind on, which talks I need to write, and which articles I need to edit.
Maybe, one day, you too can be in the same position.
I ask that the contents of all my hard drives be made publicly available from aaronsw.com.

This Day in History… April 24, 1990
Posted on April 24, 2016 by MysticStamp
Launch of the Hubble Telescope
U.S. #3384-88 picture some of the beautiful images captured by the Hubble Telescope.
On April 24, 1990, NASA launched the Hubble Telescope from the Space Shuttle Discovery.
German scientist Hermann Oberth, one of the founders of rocketry, was the first person to suggest sending a telescope into space aboard a rocket in 1923. Little was done over the next 20 years until astrophysicist Lyman Spitzer, Jr., wrote a paper suggesting a space observatory. While progress was slow, Spitzer continued promoting the idea for the next 50 years.
U.S. #3409 – International Rate stamp sheet pictures the Hubble Telescope.
The first major step was taken in 1969, when NASA approved the Large Space Telescope Project. Over the next five years, scientists worked out plans for the telescope and suggested that it have several interchangeable instruments, allowing it to study wavelengths from ultraviolet to infrared light. After nearly 20 years of planning, Congress approved funding for the telescope in 1977.
Building the telescope was a massive effort, utilizing crews from all over the country. Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama was in charge of the design, development and construction of the telescope and its support systems. Meanwhile Goddard Space Flight Center designed and built scientific instruments for it and developed the ground control aspect. Furthermore, contractors, universities, and NASA centers worked on additional instruments.
U.S. #4226 – The telescope's namesake, Edwin Hubble.
In 1983, the telescope was named for Edwin Powell Hubble (1889-1953), an American astronomer whose extensive studies of galaxies helped explain the structure, size, and evolution of the universe. He was the first to note that the universe contains star systems other than our Milky Way.
U.S. #3409a – First Day Cover picturing the Hubble Telescope.
Delays pushed back the launch date to October 1986. But earlier that year, the Space Shuttle Challenger exploded, halting shuttle flights for two years. The delay gave scientists the chance to upgrade certain aspects of the telescope, but maintaining it in a clean room increased the overall cost of the project.
After several years of planning, design, and construction, the Hubble Telescope was launched into space aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery on April 24, 1990. It was equipped with five scientific instruments: the Wide Field/Planetary Camera, the Goddard High Resolution Spectrograph, the Faint Object Camera, the Faint Object Spectrograph and the High Speed Photometer.
Item #M11190 honors 50 years of space exploration and satellites with images of the Hubble Telescope.
Shortly after going into orbit, however, scientists on Earth discovered a problem. While the pictures Hubble transmitted back were clearer than most ground-based telescopes, they weren't as clear as expected. Scientists discovered that the primary mirror was slightly the wrong shape, causing light to bounce off the center and focus on a different area than the light bouncing off the edge. They figured out a solution – a series of small mirrors that could be installed in space. This would be an important job, as it would test the ability to repair the telescope in space.
Item #59198E – Commemorative medal cover honoring the Discovery Shuttle that launched Hubble into space.
Astronauts made the repair trip in December 1993, and by early 1994, Hubble was sending back the first batch of beautiful images with the clarity we've come to expect. With a resolution nearly 20 times that of ordinary ground-based telescopes, Hubble returns amazing images from the furthest reaches of our universe. The huge instrument can "see" the cosmos clearer than land-based telescopes because of its position above Earth's image-distorting atmosphere. In fact, it's said that the power is so strong – and the resolution so sharp – that it's like seeing a pair of fireflies in Tokyo while standing in Maryland. Hubble has proven the existence of black holes, captured a comet's collision with Jupiter, and taken the first images of Pluto and its satellite, Charon.

A touch of history is.informative and shows that people from all parts of the world can build on previous knowledge , work together to do great things for all of us , and make life exciting and want to learn more.

At least Congress did its job in those days by approving the launching and implementation of the Hubble Telescope, and we are still benefitting by increasing our knowledge of the Universe with a better understanding of our role and existence.

All of this space nonsense is a waste of money and of effort. We have plenty of problems here on Earth(don't say the "planet" that is a generic word and our earth is all we really know–call it by name). Too bad we wasted all of that $$ on space exploration instead of working on the many problems like starvation and pollution right here. Will we ever stop avoiding the obvious?
By Hans Frankfort April 25, 2016 - 11:53 am
The space budget is small compared to the trillions of dollars waisted by outsourcing violence throughout the world for the benefit of the few. We need to spend more of our tax dollars to increase our knowledge of our environment as well as our inner selfs; of course, we need to allocate funds to help decrease pollution of the only home we know, earth, and alleviate the suffering of our fellow human beings.
By Thomas Daniel April 24, 2019 - 11:58 pm
A statement from the perpetually ignorant. We spend billions of dollars to fight poverty, house the homeless and feed the hungry. It's up to people to stop whining and take care of themselves instead of asking for a handout. Knowledge is priceless. That phone or computer you waste your time on, and ours, is a direct offshoot of NASA and it's research into miniaturization. Knowledge benefits all. Oh, and it is a planet.

Work on the 4-lane orbital motorway around Prague was one of the biggest construction projects in the Czech Republic at the time. South-west of Prague, the route traverses the valley of Lochkovské údolí at a height of 65 m. To cross this valley, a bridge was built using the incremental launching method. Doka supplied the formwork solution for the steeply inclined piers.

Z100 News
Luis Fonsi On 'Despacito' Being the Song of the Summer
posted by Emily Lee - Jun 7, 2017
Luis Fonsi is the man responsible for your new favorite song. He stopped by the Z100 studios to talk with Brady about the massive success of his cross over hit 'Despacito,' which has taken over the airwaves. Brady believes 'Despacito' is on track to be Song of the Summer, and Fonsi weighed in. "I'm an optimistic guy and obviously it felt special to me from the moment I wrote the song, when my boy Daddy Yankee joined the party, it felt great but no way did I plan that it was going to be a crossover record," the Puerto Rican native explained. "I didn't plan for it blow up. Not only in the States, but in Asia, Europe, and places like Russia, you know what I mean? And it's a Spanish song at the end of the day. It's great. It wasn't really planned to be a crossover. I just wanted to do a great song. I wanted to pay a little homage to where I'm from. It just so happens people are connecting to it, even though they're not really understanding what we're saying. They're loving it and it's a blessing."
Fonsi also opened up about how his collaboration with Justin Bieber came about. It turns out he didn't even have to reach out the 23-year-old superstar in order to get his feature. "It's one of those things that if you plan it, it doesn't happen. I give full credit to my man Justin Bieber, who actually called us," Fonsi revealed. "We released the original version five months ago and it became a huge hit in Latin America and Europe. Bieber was on tour in Colombia and he heard the record at a night club. Literally. I can't make this up. He fell in love with the song and called management and they called us and said 'Bieber wants to do a remix.'"
{"position1": {"artist": {"bio": "", "id": 35554, "name": "Luis Fonsi"}, "catalog_type": "artist", "description": "", "id": 35554, "name": "Luis Fonsi", "related": [{"bio": "", "id": 39198, "name": "Don Omar"}, {"bio": "", "id": 7268, "name": "Daddy Yankee"}, {"bio": "", "id": 107124, "name": "Obie Berm\u00fadez"}, {"bio": "", "id": 90279, "name": "Reik"}, {"bio": "", "id": 40733, "name": "Enrique Iglesias"}, {"bio": "", "id": 87158, "name": "Chayanne"}, {"bio": "", "id": 35556, "name": "Marc Anthony"}], "tagged": false, "type": "catalog"}}
Fonsi, thankfully, said yes to Bieber's remix and the song subsequently blew up stateside. While Bieber does sing parts of the song in English, the majority remains in Spanish. It's still catchy even if you don't fully understand the Spanish lyrics. If you did want to know what 'Despacito' really means, Fonsi broke it down for us. "It means slowly. It's a sexy song. It's one of those songs that says 'let's slow it down, let's enjoy the moment.'" Fonsi said of his lyrics. "When it comes to sexy times, we need to just slow it down and it's just fun."
Let's all pour one out for Justin Bieber for bringing 'Despacito' to the U.S. and for possibly finding the Song of the Summer before everybody else. And, obviously, for introducing us to the amazingly talented Luis Fonsi.

Dress, pray, start the day.
Nothing to eat but humble pie.
March in line to the laundry.
then I burn myself on the iron.
a bit of a rebel at school.
no one knows we are here at all.
Pray, but don't think of the words.
I hope they'll forfeit their own!
to be given a better life.
how grateful we are for our blessings.

Same Sex Marriage Is (Almost) Legal in South Carolina
Posted by Jenny R. Stevens | Nov 12, 2014 | 0 Comments
Yesterday, a historic decision was handed down in South Carolina by United States District Court Judge Richard M. Gergel in the same sex marriage case filed by Charleston Attorney Colleen Condon and her fiancee, Nichols Bleckley. In his decision, Judge Gergel issued an injunction against Attorney General Alan Wilson and all probate judges from "enforcing SC Constitution Art. XVII, § 15, SC Code Ann., §§20-1-10 and 20-1-15 or any other state law or policy to the extent they seek to prohibit the marriage of same sex couples; and interfering in any manner with Plaintiffs' fundamental right to marry or in the issuance of a marriage license to Plaintiffs; and/or refusing to issue to Plaintiffs a marriage license if, but for their sex, they are otherwise qualified to marry under the laws of South Carolina." He went on to issue a one-week stay (which will be lifted on November 20, 2014 at 12:00 noon, absent any further orders from a higher court) to allow for appeals to be delivered to the Fourth Circuit, should Attorney General Wilson decide to pursue such an appeal.
The facts in this matter are virtually undisputed. Condon and Bleckley applied for a marriage license from the Charleston Probate Court following the now infamous Fourth Circuit opinion inBostic v. Schaeffer written by Judge Henry Floyd (of Spartanburg, South Carolina), however that same day South Carolina's Attorney General initiated an action in the original jurisdiction of the South Carolina Supreme Court seeking an injunction prohibiting Condon and Bleckley from receiving a marriage license, despite the fact that they had submitted the requisite forms and paid the requisite fee per the statute, until a pending federal constitutional challenge had been heard and decided. The SC Supreme Court accepted this jurisdiction, but only for the purposes of entering an order enjoining SC probate judges from issuing marriage licenses to same sex couples pending the legal challenges in the US District Court for the District of South Carolina.
In his decision, Judge Gergel frequently cited Judge Floyd's Fourth Circuit opinion and also referenced as support the fact that the US Supreme Court denied hearing the Bostic appeal from the Fourth Circuit decision. Speaking to Attorney General Wilson's passionate arguments regarding precedent and his position that the Court should have considered the US Supreme Court's 1972 decision in Baker v. Nelson, Judge Gergel writes
"While a party is certainly free to argue against precedent, even very recent precedent, the Fourth Circuit has exhaustively addressed the issues raised by Defendants and firmly and unambiguously recognized a fundamental right of same sex couples to marry and the power of the federal courts to address and vindicate that right. Regardless of the passion of Bostic's opponents, the predictability and stability of our judicial decision-making is dependent upon lower courts respecting and enforcing the decisions of higher appellate courts. Not every decision is heard and decided by the United States Supreme Court (in fact very are), and lower federal courts are not free to disregard clear holdings of the circuit courts of appeal simply because a party believes them poorly reasoned or inappropriately inattentive to alternative legal arguments. Coherent and consistent adjudication requires respect for the principle of stare decisis and the basic rule that the decision of a federal circuit court of appeals left undisturbed by United States Supreme Court review is controlling on the lower courts within the circuit."
What does this mean for same-sex couples in South Carolina? Essentially, barring any further rulings or orders from a higher court, as of high noon on November 20, 2014, Ms. Condon and Ms. Bleckley will be allowed to pick up their marriage license from the Charleston County Probate Court, along with any other couples who applied the same day and we could potentially see the first legal same-sex marriage take place that afternoon. The significance, however, is not just for same-sex couples in South Carolina, but this decision has reaffirmed the fact that marriage is a fundamental right for all South Carolina citizens which cannot be trampled by statutes which define or regulate marriage.

Sinlung / Northeast
Bandh Disrupts Normal Life in Northeast India
Tight security arrangement has been made while members of civil societies, North East Students' Organisation (NESO) and AASU took out a protest rally, in Guwahati on September 6, 2012. Photo: Ritu Raj Konwar
Guwahati, Sep 6 : Normal life was on Thursday disrupted in Manipur, Mizoram, Nagaland and Arunachal Pradesh due to a 12-hour bandh called by the North East Students' Organisation to protest "harassment" of students from the region in other parts of the country and influx of illegal migrants.
Shops, markets, business establishments, government and private offices, banks and education institutions were mostly closed in the four states due to the bandh which began on Thursday morning, according to official reports.
A massive rally was organised in Guwahati in Assam where NESO chairman Samujjal Bhattacharjee said, "Former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi signed the Assam Accord in 1985, but Sonia Gandhi, the UPA chairperson, has failed to implement it and stop illegal migration.
"Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, who represents Assam in Parliament, has also failed in this context," he alleged.
He blamed Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi for trivialising the issue and said that the recent exodus of students and professionals to the Northeast following the riots in lower Assam was the outcome of the government's apathy.
Not a Hindu-Muslim issue
"This is not a Hindu-Muslim issue, but the problem is due to illegal migration from Bangladesh and our movement will continue till our demands and all illegal migrants, irrespective of religion who have come after 1971 leave," he said.
The Guwahati rally was attended by 26 student organisations.
'Deport illegal Bangladeshis'
The NESO demanded immediate detection and deportation of illegal Bangladeshis from the North East, updating of the National Register of Citizens and its completion before the next Lok Sabha polls, sealing of the India-Bangladesh border before the next Lok Sabha polls and no land settlements of migrants who arrived after 1971 in Kokrajhar, Chirang, Dhubri and Bongaigaon districts in Assam.
A report from Imphal said that transport services in Manipur and with neighbouring states were also cancelled with roads in the state capital deserted and people remaining indoors. Attendance in government and private offices was nil.
In Nagaland, all shops and business establishments in the capital town of Kohima and the commercial town of Dimapur remained closed while the bandh hit normal traffic on the roads.
Attendance was thin in government offices, banks and financial institutions across the state.
Schools and colleges remained closed as the state government declared a holiday.
In Arunachal Pradesh, the bandh was total in all the districts of the state.
Mizoram bandh
In Mizoram, normal life was completely disrupted in the capital city of Aizawl with all government offices, banks, financial institutions, educational institutions and shops and business establishments closed.
Left Front ruled-Tripura was free from the shutdown with the NESO not having any organisation in the state.
Addressing the rally, North East MP Forum General Secretary Biren Baishya said that the issue of illegal migration from Bangladesh was raised several times in Parliament and would also be raised in future.
"We have been always telling the central government that this is not the problem of Assam or North East alone, but the entire country and we must save Assam today to save India tomorrow," he said.
He also said that it was the responsibility of the government to provide security to people of the Northeast living across the country.
'North-east united'
NESO Vice Chairman and Mizo Student leader S Khunte said that the North East was united on the issue of deportation of Bangladeshis.
"The problem faced recently by the NE people in mainland India was due to the government's failure to check migration and deport Bangladeshis from the country," he said.
Nagaland Students' Federation Advisor N S N Lotha said "there is no place for Bangladeshis in the North East and if the government fails to deport them, indigenous people have to step in and carry the movement forward as their identity is under threat."
The rally was also addressed by NESO leaders from Manipur, Meghalaya and Arunachal Pradesh and a protest march was taken out later.

Week 11 Part 1 was an absolute nightmare for fantasy managers, so let's hope Part 2 is a little better.
Players are still being added to the league's COVID-19 protocols, but there have also been a number of players removed from the list, too. Hopefully we see more of the latter than the former over the next couple weeks.
Here are the top waiver targets in fantasy hockey for each category.
Goals: LW/RW Valeri Nichushkin, Colorado Avalanche (36 percent rostered on Yahoo)
Valeri Nichushkin will likely get bumped off the Avalanche's top line with Gabriel Landeskog nearing a return, but I'm still interested in the Russian winger in fantasy.
For starters, he leads Colorado in 5v5 scoring chances for per-60, which is no small accomplishment considering the wealth of offensive talent the team possesses. Additionally, he's been peppering puck-stoppers at an impressive rate recently, firing 24 shots on goal in his last six outings. That shoot-first mentality has lent itself to some scoring success, as he has potted three goals in his last two games.
With a plus-10 rating and 25 hits through 18 games this season, Nichushkin blends strong offensive play with high-end defensive chops, and is one of the top adds for the second half of Week 11,
Assists: RW Travis Konecny, Philadelphia Flyers (36 percent rostered on Yahoo)
Travis Konecny has been playing a more consistent stream of minutes lately for the Flyers, and that's resulted in some positive results in the assists category.
The 24-year-old has topped 17 minutes of ice time in six of his last seven outings and has racked up seven helpers during that stretch. He's also been a help for fantasy managers looking for power-play points, as he's totalled three during this stretch while playing on the Flyers' top power-play unit.
He's also been a decent source for hits, as he's dished out 11 over the same span of games.
Philadelphia plays three contests over the next seven days, which means Konecny can provide some decent category coverage for Pt. 2 of Week 11.
Plus-minus: LW/RW Eeli Tolvanen, Nashville Predators (25 percent rostered on Yahoo)
With the Predators still missing their entire first line due to COVID-19 protocols, Eeli Tolvanen will be counted on to step up for Nashville.
Tolvanen has posted a respectable plus-six mark over his last seven games. This coincides with an uptick in scoring for the 22-year-old, as he's registered four goals and five points during this span. He's also been throwing his body around, as he's thrown 16 hits over this stretch, too.
With key players like Mikael Granlund, Matt Duchene, and Ryan Johansen out, Tolvanen will also see more involvement on the top power-play unit. He and the Preds play three games this week, and the 2017 first-round pick remains someone worth holding onto for the long-term in fantasy.
Power-play points: RW Taylor Raddysh, Tampa Bay Lightning (5 percent rostered on Yahoo)
With the Lightning missing key players like Anthony Cirelli, Nikita Kucherov, and Brayden Point, their depth will be tested coming out of the break, and Raddysh is one of these young forwards who will be thrust into an expanded role.
The Bolts forward is only averaging 11:44 of ice time, but he was logging minutes on Tampa Bay's top power-play unit prior to the pause. He's recorded one point on the man advantage over his last two games, but he's likely due for a few more while skating on a unit that features players like Steven Stamkos and Victor Hedman.
Even with the limited minutes, Raddysh has been reaching the scoresheet pretty frequently, with four goals and eight points over his past 10 games. It's important to remember that he was a second-round pick of the Lightning in 2016, and recorded 109 points in 58 games for the OHL's Erie Otters during the 2016-17 season. He also averaged better than a point per game with the AHL's Syracuse Crunch last year.
He and the Lightning play a league-leading four games this week.
Shots on goal: LW/RW Viktor Arvidsson, Los Angeles Kings (42 percent rostered on Yahoo)
Viktor Arvidsson has only tallied six goals and 14 points this season, but there are a lot of indicators that suggest he's due for some positive regression.
His 86 shots on goal are tied for 35th in the league, and he actually leads the Kings in 5v5 scoring chances for per-60 — both being great indicators that his 7.0 shooting percentage is likely on the rise.
He's fired off three or more shots in 10 of the last 12 games and will be a great option for fantasy managers with the Kings playing three games this week.
Faceoff wins: C Jonathan Toews, Chicago Blackhawks (39 percent rostered on Yahoo)
There's not much explaining I need to do to convince you to add Jonathan Toews in fantasy hockey for Week 11 Pt. 2.
His 352 faceoff wins rank third across the entire NHL, and it seems like the veteran centre is finally starting to find his scoring touch. He's registered three goals and four points over his last five outings and is likely due for some more goals as his 5.7 shooting percentage lags behind his career number of 13.7 percent.
He and the Blackhawks play three games this week, making him a good candidate to lead the entire league in the category over the next seven days.
Hits: C/LW Ross Colton, Tampa Bay Lightning (6 percent rostered on Yahoo)
As mentioned above, Tampa Bay is missing a lot of its top players on offense, but depth forwards like Ross Colton continue to do a serviceable job when called upon.
Playing inside the Lightning's top-six, Colton has potted seven assists in his last 10 games in addition to racking up his fair share of body checks. Over his last 14 outings, the 25-year-old has thrown 39 hits.
The Bolts play four games this week, so Colton will bring a nice blend of grit and offensive touch to lineups.
Blocks: D Mario Ferraro, San Jose Sharks (22 percent rostered on Yahoo)
Well, look who's back in the blocks section of my waiver wire column?
One of my favourites, Mario Ferraro, returns after I purposefully left him out of here for the last month or so due to the fact that it got to the point where I was writing about him every week. In all honesty, I could just dedicate this part of the blog to him every week, but to avoid redundancy, I tried to keep it fresh with a few different names over the last 30 days or so.
Simply put, this guy is a puck magnet. His 91 blocks lead the NHL and are 14 more than Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Brayden McNabb in second place. Ferraro has also helped fantasy managers in the hits department, providing 67 body checks in 30 games.
He's occasionally chipped in offensively with two goals and 10 points this season, but it's not something that should be expected. He blocks shots and hits people, which is more than enough for me.
He and the Sharks play three games over the next seven days.
Goaltending: G Tuukka Rask, Boston Bruins (25 percent rostered on Yahoo)
It's getting very close to Tuukka Time in Boston.
When speaking on Sunday, Bruins head coach Bruce Cassidy noted that Rask could be ready to play with the team in three weeks. With a fairly clear timeline for return established, fantasy managers should be acting now to scoop the Finnish goaltender off waivers.
Sure, there are some reasons to have pause about adding the veteran. Rask is 35 years old and has been rehabilitating surgery which repaired a torn labrum in his hip, but considering he's in a three-way tie with Ken Dryden and Dominik Hasek for the all-time lead in save percentage with a mark of .922, I'd say he's definitely worth taking a flier on.
Goalies with his track record are not flooding waiver wires in any league, so go out and add him.

Some blockchain start-ups, regardless of having talented teams of engineers, haven't been able to prove a use case and are struggling to fund operations as the price of cryptocurrencies nosedives. Employees are slowly becoming free agents, which is good news for companies like Facebook.
Facebook is on a growing list of tech companies testing out the blockchain space, with former PayPal executive David Marcus leading its charge. Amazon, IBM, Microsoft and J. P. Morgan are among others looking at use cases for the technology, which supporters call more transparent and more secure than existing data systems.
Engineers and other entrepreneurs flocked to the blockchain and cryptocurrency space as prices hit record highs at the end of 2017. The flagship cryptocurrency bitcoin rallied to almost $20,000 at the end of that year.
There was plenty of venture capital money to get these companies off the ground in 2018. More than $2.6 billion was spent on deals for 301 companies last year, according to Pitchbook. That was more than three times the total blockchain and crypto deals completed 2017.
But the clock may have run out for venture funding, according to Bajpai. Bitcoin's price nosedived 80 percent since then.
Even at the peak of their fundraising, many of these companies still hadn't launched a real product. In the case of EOS, the company raked in $4 billion from an initial coin offering without having a live product. Those coins for the most part have struggled alongside bitcoin. The industry's market capitalization is around $121 billion, down from more than $800 billion at the peak.
Bajpai likened it to the dot-com years. Start-ups that had a convincing idea were able to raise venture capital money. But those that couldn't prove sustainability were shaken out in the process.

Is See For Me App Real? What is the Meaning of See For Me Title?
Arka Mukhopadhyay
Directed by Randall Okita, 'See for Me' is a slick and witty home invasion thriller woven around a blind protagonist. Visually impaired actress Skyler Davenport takes up the role of Sophie, a former athlete who has to take up odd house-sitting jobs following the supposed end of her skiing career. Her stay at Debra's house becomes perilous upon the arrival of three armed goons. With only a stranger's voice and some ingenuity in her stride, Sophie must get out of the mayhem alive. The soundtrack is killer, the intricate story entices the audience, and Sophie's blindness gives her a certain edge. However, you may have wondered whether there is an app akin to the one in the movie. In that case, let us reveal all, but watch out for spoilers.
What is the Meaning of See For Me Title?
The movie's name derives from an application Sophie's worrisome mother tells Sophie about. While Sophie is going to the mansion, her mother tells her to check the mail. Sophie shrugs off the suggestion aside and deletes her mother's message after the AI reads it aloud. After Debra, the owner, leaves the house, Sophie goes on her routine wine-hunt. She calls up her assistant, Cam, who guides Sophie through the house, living up to his name. She reaches the wine cellar and picks up Chambertin Grand Cru, 1989.
The bottle is worth $4500, and she is about to sell it for 3k retail. Cam has helped her pull off a few more small-time crimes from her previous employers, but he firmly denies supporting her furthermore. He does not want to be an accomplice in criminal activities. Therefore, when Sophie locks herself out of the house shortly after arming the security system, she has no option but to install the application "See for Me." The app connects her to war veteran Kelly, whose involvement in Sophie's safety becomes crucial. Sophie does not trust Kelly's guts.
But when Kelly helps her enter back into the house, Sophie saves Kelly's number as a priority contact. Kelly acts as Sophie's visual assistance – in other words, sees for her – and in the story, forms a strong bond with Sophie. When the burglars arrive, Kelly suggests Sophie sit tight and let them take whatever they want. Instead, Sophie makes a run for it, asking for trouble. However, for athlete Sophie, no risk equals no gain. Weeks after the mayhem of the house, Sophie video calls Kelly to take her on a trip downhill. While Sophie's indomitable spirit is the real winner of the story, you may wonder whether the app is real or not.
Is See For Me App Real?
Well, there is no app by the same name as the movie. However, several applications provide either AI-based object recognition or sighted assistance. One particular app, "Be My Eyes," rings a bell similar to the one in the movie. This app, much like the one in the movie, pairs blind assistance seekers with able-sighted volunteers. It connects you with the helper following a droning sound, and they can dictate whatever they can see through your phone's camera. "Be My Eyes" stands apart from the crowd for its video chat feature, while other applications in the category use photos for guidance. Therefore, the application shown in the movie has a basis in realism rather than in science fiction.

Longfellow House-Washington's Headquarters National Historic Site
The Longfellow House–Washington's Headquarters National Historic Site (also known as the Vassall-Craigie-Longfellow House and, until December 2010, Longfellow National Historic Site) is a historic site located at 105 Brattle Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It was the home of noted American poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow for almost 50 years, and it had previously served as the headquarters of General George Washington (1775–76).
The house was built in 1759 for Jamaican planter John Vassall, Jr., who fled the Cambridge area at the beginning of the American Revolutionary War because of his loyalty to the king of England. George Washington occupied it as his headquarters beginning on July 16, 1775, and it served as his base of operations during the Siege of Boston until he moved out on April 4, 1776. Andrew Craigie, Washington's Apothecary General, was the next person to own the home for a significant period of time. He purchased the house in 1791 and instigated its only major addition. Craigie's financial situation at the time of his death in 1819 forced his widow Elizabeth to take in boarders, and one of those borders was Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. He became its owner in 1843 when his father-in-law Nathan Appleton purchased it as a wedding gift. He lived in the home until his death in 1882.
The last family to live in the home was the Longfellow family, who established the Longfellow Trust in 1913 for its preservation. In 1972, the home and all of its furnishings were donated to the National Park Service, and it is open to the public seasonally. It presents an example of mid-Georgian architecture style.
Early history[edit]
The original house was built in 1759 for Loyalist John Vassall, Jr.[2] owner of a slave-labor sugar plantation in Hanover, Jamaica.[3] He inherited the land along what was called the King's Highway in Cambridge when he was 21. He demolished the structure that had stood there and built a new mansion,[4] and the home became his summer residence with his wife Elizabeth (née Oliver) and children until 1774. His wife's brother was Thomas Oliver, the royal lieutenant governor of Massachusetts[4] who moved to Cambridge in 1766 and built the Elmwood mansion.[5] Vassall, who kept an usually high number of people enslaved on the property,[6] served for a time as a warden of nearby Christ Church.[7] Vassall's house and all his other properties were confiscated by Patriots in September 1774 on the eve of the American Revolutionary War because he was accused of being loyal to the King.[8] He fled to Boston and later to England where he died in 1792.[9]
1854 image of the home labeled as "Headquarters, Cambridge 1775" in reference to George Washington
The home was used as a temporary hospital in the days after the Battles of Lexington and Concord.[4] Colonel John Glover and the Marblehead, Massachusetts Regiment occupied the house as their temporary barracks in June 1775.[10] General George Washington, Commander-in-Chief of the newly formed Continental Army, initially used the Benjamin Wadsworth House at Harvard College as his headquarters,[11] but he decided that he needed more space for his staff;[12] he moved into the Vassall House on July 16, 1775, and used it as his headquarters and home until he departed on April 4, 1776. During the Siege of Boston, he found the view of the Charles River from the house particularly useful.[13] The home was shared with several aides-de-camp, including colonel Robert H. Harrison.[14] Washington was visited at the house by John Adams and Abigail Adams, Benedict Arnold, Henry Knox, and Nathanael Greene.[13] In his study, he also confronted Dr. Benjamin Church with evidence that he was a spy.[15] It was in this house that Washington received a poem written by Phillis Wheatley, the first published African-American poet. "If you should ever come to Cambridge", he wrote to her, "I shall be happy to see a person so favored by the Muses".[16]
Martha Washington joined her husband in December 1775 and stayed until March 1776.[9] She brought with her Washington's nephew George Lewis as well as her son John Parke Custis and his wife Eleanor Calvert.[14] On Twelfth Night in January 1776, the couple celebrated their wedding anniversary in the home.[10] Mrs. Washington reported to a friend that "some days we have [heard] a number of cannon and shells from Boston and Bunkers Hill".[13] She used the front parlor as her personal reception room, still furnished with the English-made furniture left behind by the Vassalls.[17] The Washingtons also had several servants, including a tailor named Giles Alexander, and several slaves including "Billy" Lee.[14] They also entertained very often. Surviving household accounts show that the family purchased large quantities of beef, lamb, wild ducks, geese, fresh fish, plums, peaches, barrels of cider, gallons of brandy and rum,[18] and 217 bottles of Madeira wine purchased in a two-week period.[19]
Washington left the house in April 1776.[20] Nathaniel Tracy had made a great fortune as one of the earliest and most successful privateers under Washington, and he owned the house from 1781 to 1786. He then went bankrupt and sold it to Thomas Russell, a wealthy Boston merchant who occupied it until 1791.
Craigie family and boarders[edit]
Andrew Craigie had been the first Apothecary General of the American army, and bought the house in 1791.[21] He hosted Prince Edward, Duke of Kent and Strathearn in the ballroom; Prince Edward was the father of Queen Victoria.[22] Craigie married Elizabeth while living in the house; she was the daughter of a Nantucket clergyman and only 22 years old, 17 years younger than he.[10]
Craigie overspent trying to restore the home,[20] and left Elizabeth in great debt when he died in 1819. She took in boarders to support herself,[23] most often people connected to nearby Harvard University.[19] Short-term residents of the home included Jared Sparks, Edward Everett, and Joseph Emerson Worcester.[24] Sparks moved into the home in April 1833 while he was preparing a biography of Washington based on original documents. He recorded in his journal: "It is a singular circumstance that, while I am engaged in preparing for the press the letters of General Washington which he wrote at Cambridge after taking command of the American army, I should occupy the same rooms that he did at that time."[25] Another lodger was Sarah Lowell, an aunt of James Russell Lowell.[26]
Longfellow moved to Cambridge to take a job at Harvard College as Smith Professor of Modern Languages and of Belles Lettres,[27] and rented rooms on the second floor of the home beginning in the summer of 1837.[22] Elizabeth Craigie initially refused to rent to him because she thought that he was a student at Harvard, but Longfellow convinced her that he was a professor there, as well as the author of Outre-Mer, the very book that she was reading.[28]
Longfellow's new landlady had earned a reputation for being eccentric[23] and often wore a turban. In the 1840s, Longfellow wrote about an incident where canker-worms were devastating the elm trees on the property. Elizabeth Craigie "would sit by the open window and let them crawl over her white turban. She refused to have the trees protected against them & said, Why, sir, they have as good a right to live as we—they are our fellow worms".[20] He wrote to his father in August 1837, "The new rooms are above all praise, only they do want painting."[29] The rooms that he rented were the same ones once used personally by George Washington while it was his headquarters,[13] and he wrote to his friend George Washington Greene: "I live in a great house which looks like an Italian villa: have two large rooms opening into each other. They were once Gen. Washington's chambers".[20]
The first major works that Longfellow composed in the home were Hyperion, a prose romance likely inspired by his pursuit for the affections of Frances Appleton, and Voices of the Night, a poetry collection which included "A Psalm of Life".[23] Edward Wagenknecht notes that it was these early years at the Craigie House which marked "the real beginning of Longfellow's literary career".[30] His landlady, Elizabeth Craigie, died in 1841.[31]
Longfellow family[edit]
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow with his sons Charles and Ernest and his wife Frances
Joseph Emerson Worcester leased the property from Elizabeth Craigie's heirs after her death, and he rented the eastern half to Longfellow.[32] Nathan Appleton purchased the house in 1843 for $10,000; Longfellow married his daughter Frances, so Appleton gave him the house as a wedding gift.[33][32] Longfellow's friend George Washington Greene reminded them "how noble an inheritance this is — where Washington dwelt in every room".[34] Longfellow was proud of the connection to Washington and purchased a bust of him in 1844, a copy of the sculpture by Jean-Antoine Houdon.[35]
Longfellow lived in the house for the next four decades, producing many of his most famous poems including "Paul Revere's Ride" and "The Village Blacksmith",[36] as well as longer works such as Evangeline, The Song of Hiawatha, and The Courtship of Miles Standish.[31] He published 11 poetry collections, two novels, three epic poems, and several plays while living in this house, as well as a translation of Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy.[37] He and his wife most often referred to it as "Craigie House" or "Craigie Castle".[38]
Longfellow oversaw the creation of a formal garden, and his wife oversaw decorating the interior.[39] She purchased several items from Tiffany & Co. in New York, as well as $350 worth of carpets.[40] They installed central heating in 1850 and gaslight in 1853.[39] The family hosted artists, writers, politicians and other famous people. Specific visitors included Charles Dickens, William Makepeace Thackeray, singer Jenny Lind, and actress Fanny Kemble.[41] Emperor Dom Pedro II of Brazil also visited the house privately and requested the company of Longfellow, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr., and James Russell Lowell.[42] The couple also raised their three daughters and two sons in the home.[22] They stayed in the home until their respective deaths but spent their summers after 1850 in Nahant, Massachusetts.[43]
Longfellow often wrote in his first-floor study, formerly Washington's office, surrounded by portraits of his friends, including charcoal portraits by Eastman Johnson of Charles Sumner, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Cornelius Conway Felton. He would write at the center table, at the desk, or in the armchair by the fire.[41] His second wife Fanny died in the home in July 1861 after her dress accidentally caught fire. He attempted to quell the flames, managing to keep her face from burning,[44] but he was burned on his own face and was scarred badly enough that he began growing a beard to hide it.[45]
Preservation and current use[edit]
Memorial by Daniel Chester French and Henry Bacon
Longfellow died in 1882 and his daughter Alice Longfellow was the last of his children to live in the home. In 1913, the surviving Longfellow children established the Longfellow House Trust to preserve the home as well as its view to the Charles River.[46] Their intention was to preserve the home as a memorial to Longfellow and Washington and to showcase the property as a "prime example of Georgian architecture".
The home was already becoming famous during the poet's lifetime as it was often printed alongside his works, in chromolitographs, and in gift-cards. Its fame continued to grow after Longfellow's death. By the 1890s, a company began manufacturing postcards and selling them in bulk for teachers to give away.[47]
In 1962, the trust successfully lobbied for the house to become a national historic landmark. In 1972, the Trust donated the property to the National Park Service and it became the Longfellow National Historic Site and open to the public as a house museum.[19] On display are many of the original nineteenth century furnishings, artwork, over 10,000 books owned by Longfellow, and the dining table around which many important visitors gathered.[48] Everything on display was owned by the Longfellow family. The site was renamed to Longfellow House–Washington's Headquarters National Historic Site on December 22, 2010, to ensure that the connection to Washington was not lost in the memory of the general public.[49]
The site also possesses some 750,000 original documents relevant to the former occupants of the home.[50] These archives are open to scholarly research by appointment.
Across the street from the Longfellow House–Washington's Headquarters National Historic Site is the municipal park known as Longfellow Park.[46] The park was left undeveloped as a way to preserve an unobstructed view of the Charles River from the house.[51] In the middle sits a memorial by sculptor Daniel Chester French dedicated in 1914. In addition to a bust of the poet, a carved bas-relief by Henry Bacon depicts the famous characters Miles Standish, Sandalphon, the village blacksmith, the Spanish student, Evangeline, and Hiawatha.[48] The monument is similar to one French designed for the street that leads to Sunnyside, the former home of Washington Irving.[52]
In 1994, locals established the Friends of the Longfellow House, a nonprofit organization which raises funds to supplement federal support for the site and to assist with ongoing preservation projects.[53]
Architecture and landscape[edit]
Back end of the Longfellow House–Washington's Headquarters National Historic Site, as seen from the garden
The original 1759 house was built in the Georgian architectural style.[2] The pair of large pilasters that frame the central entry portal created two side wings, also framed by large pilasters. The house is influenced by the English architect James Gibbs, who published his "Book of Architecture" in 1728. Gibbs demonstrated a melding of the English Baroque style with the new Palladian movement.[54] This facade configuration effectively expressed the rising prosperity and status of John Vassall's family background.[4] In 1791, Andrew Craigie added the two side porches and the two-story back ell and also expanded the library into a twenty by thirty foot ballroom with its own entrance.[21] During the Longfellow family's time in the home, very few structural changes were made. As Frances Longfellow wrote, "we are full of plans & projects with no desire, however, to change a feature of the old countenance which Washington has rendered sacred".[19]
The Longfellow House–Washington's Headquarters National Historic Site is noted for its garden on the northeast end of the property. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow oversaw the creation of the original garden, shaped as a lyre, shortly after his wedding.[39] In 1845, he began refurbishing the garden in earnest and imported trees from England with help from Asa Gray. These trees included "a number of evergreens, among them a cedar of Lebanon and pines from the Himalayas, Norway, Switzerland and Oregon".[55] The lyre shape proved impractical and a new design was made with the help of a landscape architect named Richard Dolben in 1847. The new design was a square surrounding a circle that was cut into four tear-shaped garden beds outlined by trimmed boxwood. Mrs. Longfellow referred to the shape as a "Persian rug".[56]
After her father's death in 1882, Alice Longfellow commissioned two of America's first female landscape architects, Martha Brookes Hutcheson and Ellen Biddle Shipman, to redesign the formal garden in the Colonial Revival style. The garden was recently restored by an organization called Friends of the Longfellow House, which completed the final stage of its reconstruction, the historic pergola, in 2008.
Replicas[edit]

For a time, Longfellow's home was one of the most photographed and most recognizable homes in the United States. In the early twentieth century Sears, Roebuck and Company sold scaled-down blueprints of the home so that anyone could build their own version of Longfellow's home.[57] Several replicas of Longfellow's home appear throughout the United States. One replica, simply called Longfellow House, still exists in Minneapolis. Originally built by businessman Robert "Fish" Jones, it currently serves as an information center for the Minneapolis Park System and is on the Grand Rounds Scenic Byway. A full-scale replica of the house was built in Great Barrington, Massachusetts at the turn of the 20th century. This building is the only remaining full-scale replica of Longfellow's original home maintaining all the original historical character. There is also a replica in Aberdeen, South Dakota on Main St.
