When the FBI Comes Calling…
Chicago Man Accused of Mailing Threatening Letters Containing False Information About Bombing Targets Across the U.S.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) on January 6, 2012 released the following:
"CHICAGO—A Chicago man was indicted on federal charges for allegedly mailing threatening letters containing false information about bombing public and private properties around the country, federal law enforcement officials announced today. The defendant, Timothy P. O'Donnell, was charged with nine counts of falsely threatening use of explosives in an indictment returned late yesterday by a federal grand jury.
O'Donnell, 51, of Chicago, never posed any actual danger of carrying through with the alleged threats contained in dozens of identical letters mailed in March 2011, Patrick J. Fitzgerald, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, and Robert D. Grant, Special Agent in Charge of the Chicago Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, said in announcing the charges.
"While there was never any real danger in Chicago or elsewhere, these charges demonstrate that the FBI and the Chicago Joint Terrorism Task Force will aggressively investigate all threats and there are serious consequences for those who allegedly make false threats," Mr. Grant said.
O'Donnell will be arraigned on a date yet to be scheduled in U.S. District Court.
The charges stem from an investigation of identically worded letters that were mailed from Chicago to dozens of recipients in approximately 16 states in March 2011. The letters purported to be from "Osama Bin Laden" and, among other things, claimed that "Al-Qaeda" had planted 160 remotely-controlled nuclear bombs throughout the country in schools, churches, hospitals, financial institutions, and government buildings.
Each of the nine counts in the indictment alleges the mailing of a threatening letter between March 18 and 22, 2011, from Chicago to two businesses in Chicago, as well as recipients in Florida, Idaho, Iowa, Pennsylvania, and Tennessee.
Each count of the indictment carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. If convicted, the court must impose a reasonable sentence under federal statutes and the advisory United States Sentencing Guidelines.
The government is being represented by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Christopher Stetler and Nancy DePodesta.
The public is reminded that an indictment contains only allegations and is not evidence of guilt. The defendant is presumed innocent and is entitled to a fair trial at which the government has the burden of proving guilt beyond a reasonable doubt."

Chicago Tribune on July 15, 2011 released the following:
"By Jeff Coen | Tribune reporter
Judge sets $450,000 bail for Blagojevich, lower than feds sought
A federal judge today set bond at $450,000 for former Gov. Rod Blagojevich and ordered him to post his North Side house and Washington condo as collateral despite the defense declaring that the Chicago residence is up for sale.
U.S. District Judge James Zagel then called Blagojevich and his wife Patti before him to issue the standard warning that they could lose both properties if the former governor violated bond conditions."

Chunlai Yang Charged in Chicago by a Criminal Complaint with Theft of Trade Secrets
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Chicago on July 2, 2011 released the following:
"A 49-year-old Libertyville resident, who was employed as a senior software engineer with the Chicago based CME Group, was arrested yesterday after being charged with theft of trade secrets. The arrest was announced today by Robert D. Grant, Special Agent in Charge of the Chicago Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
CHUNLAI YANG, who is a naturalized United States citizen, was taken into custody yesterday morning at his CME office, located at 550 West Washington Street in Chicago, without incident, by FBI special agents. YANG was charged in a criminal complaint filed yesterday in U.S. District Court in Chicago with one count of theft of trade secrets, which is a felony offense.
According to the complaint, YANG has been employed at the CME since 2000, and is responsible for writing computer code. Beginning in May of this year, CME security personnel began monitoring YANG's computer activity. They discovered that thousands of files had been downloaded to his computer, and some were then copied to removable storage devices, such as thumb drives. Many of the downloaded files were critical to the operation of the CME group and are considered proprietary in nature and contain protected source code.
Subsequent investigation by the FBI determined that YANG had also been in e-mail contact with the assistant director of the Logistics and Trade Bureau for the Zhangiagang Free Trade Zone. One of the e-mails sent by YANG contained an attachment, which was a CME document containing protected source code and proprietary information.
It was also determined that YANG had booked travel to China on a commercial airline flight, scheduled to depart from O'Hare International Airport on July 7th.
YANG appeared before Magistrate Judge Michael T. Mason in Chicago, late yesterday, at which time he was formally charged. YANG was ordered held without bond, pending his next court appearance, which is scheduled for Wednesday, July 6th. Until then, YANG will be housed at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Chicago. If convicted of the charge pending against him, YANG faces a possible sentence of up to 10 years' incarceration, a $250,000 fine, and three years of supervised release.
The public is reminded that a complaint is not evidence of guilt and that all defendants in a criminal case are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law."

Operation of Two Home Health Care Businesses Indicted in Alleged $20 Million Medicare Fraud Scheme
U.S. Attorney's Office Northern District of Illinois on June 29, 2011 released the following press release:
"CHICAGO — A Chicago man who operated two home health care businesses, one of which was among the state's largest recipients of Medicare payments, was indicted on federal fraud charges for allegedly swindling Medicare of at least $20 million over five years, federal law enforcement officials announced today. The defendant, Jacinto "John" Gabriel, Jr., allegedly schemed with others to submit millions of dollars in false claims for reimbursement of home healthcare services purportedly provided to Medicare beneficiaries, which allegedly were never provided, were not medically necessary, or were inflated in price so that he and others could profit from the fraudulently-obtained funds. Gabriel and his co-schemers allegedly used the proceeds for various purposes, including: using more than $5.5 million in cash to maintain lavish lifestyles, including gambling at casinos in the Chicago area and Las Vegas, and to buy automobiles, jewelry and real estate in the United States and the Philippines; to perpetuate the businesses by paying his employees and providing them with gifts, and to bribe physicians and pay kickbacks to others in exchange for patient referrals.
Gabriel, 43, who had no formal medical training, medical degrees, nor licenses to practice as a health care professional, was charged with two counts of wire fraud, two counts of health care fraud and 11 counts of money laundering in a 15-count indictment returned yesterday by a federal grand jury, announced Patrick J. Fitzgerald, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois. The indictment also seeks forfeiture of $20 million. He has remained free on bond since he was arrested on preliminary charges in February and he will be arraigned on a date still be determined in U.S. District Court.
"The fraud alleged in this indictment illustrates complete disregard of the needs and interests of Medicare patients," said Lamont Pugh III, Special Agent-in-Charge of the Chicago Region of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General. "The OIG is determined to aggressively investigate Medicare fraud and will continue to work with our law enforcement partners to ensure that those who perpetrate these types of crimes are held accountable."
Mr. Fitzgerald and Mr. Pugh announced the charges together with Robert D. Grant, Special Agent-in-Charge of the Chicago Office of Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Alvin Patton, Special Agent-in-Charge of the Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation Division. The Railroad Retirement Board Office of Inspector General also participated in the investigation, which is continuing. The investigation is being conducted by the Medicare Fraud Strike Force, which expanded to Chicago earlier this year, and is part of the Health Care Fraud Prevention & Enforcement Action Team (HEAT), a joint initiative between the Justice Department and HHS to focus their efforts to prevent and deter fraud and enforce anti-fraud laws around the country.
According to the indictment, Gabriel did not identify himself as an owner, but in fact exercised ownership and control over Perpetual Home Health, Inc., based in Oak Forest, and Legacy Home Healthcare Services, which was located on the city's north side. Both firms have ceased operating and no longer receive Medicare payments. Between May 2006 and January 2011, Perpetual submitted more than 14,000 Medicare claims seeking reimbursement for services allegedly provided to beneficiaries. As a result of those claims, Perpetual received more than $38 million in Medicare payments, making it one of the largest, if not the largest, recipients of Medicare payments for home health services in Illinois. Between 2008 and January 2011, Legacy submitted more than 2,000 claims for Medicare reimbursement and received more than $5 million.
As part of the fraud scheme, Gabriel and his co-schemers allegedly obtained personal information of Medicare beneficiaries to bill Medicare without the beneficiaries' knowledge or consent; created false patient files to support fraudulent Medicare claims and submitted false claims based on those records; used Medicare proceeds to pay himself, co-schemers, employees, and others who assisted him in carrying out the scheme; and concealed the fraud proceeds by directing Perpetual and Legacy to issue checks payable to fictitious entities, his friends and associates.
Among other details, the indictment alleges that Gabriel authorized Perpetual and Legacy to pay various amounts, ranging between $200 and $800, to employees and others for each patient they referred and enrolled in home healthcare services. He and others also cold-called Medicare beneficiaries to try to persuade them to enroll with Perpetual and Legacy.
As part of allegedly falsifying patient records, Gabriel directed Perpetual and Legacy personnel to systematically complete standard forms by listing the same false diagnoses, including arthropathy (joint disease) and hypertension, which enabled them to claim a higher level of Medicare reimbursement, according to the charges.
In addition to the fraud counts, the money laundering charges allege that between last October and December, Gabriel cashed 11 checks in amounts under $10,000 — usually $9,000 and all involving fraud proceeds — to avoid federal currency transaction reporting requirements.
Each count of wire fraud and money laundering carries a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison, while each count of health care fraud carries a maximum 10-year prison term. Each wire fraud and healthcare fraud count carries a maximum fine of $250,000, or an alternate fine totaling twice the loss or twice the gain, whichever is greater. Each money laundering count carries a maximum fine of $500,000. If convicted, the Court must impose a reasonable sentence under the advisory United States Sentencing Guidelines.
The public is reminded that charges are not evidence of guilt. The defendant is presumed innocent and is entitled to a fair trial at which the government has the burden of proving guilt beyond a reasonable doubt."

Eugene Klein, Former Federal Prison Chaplain, Indicted on Federal Criminal Charges for Conspiracy (18 U.S.C. 371) and Destruction or Removal of Property to Prevent Seizure (18 U.S.C. 2232(a))
Northern District of Illinois, Chicago Divison, U.S. Attorney's Office on June 9, 2011 released the following press release:
"CHICAGO — A former federal prison chaplain who ministered to convicted killer Frank Calabrese, Sr., was indicted for allegedly illegally passing messages from Calabrese and plotting with him and others to recover a hidden violin from a residence Calabrese once owned in Williams Bay, Wis., federal law enforcement officials announced today. The defendant, Eugene Klein, was charged with one count of conspiracy to defraud the United States and one count of attempting to transfer Calabrese's personal property to prevent its seizure by the government in a two-count indictment returned late yesterday by a federal grand jury. Klein allegedly obstructed enforcement of Special Administrative Measures ("SAMs"), first imposed on Calabrese in November 2008, to prevent him from further participating in illegal activities while incarcerated by restricting Calabrese's contacts with others. Klein also allegedly attempted to transfer property, which Calabrese told Klein was a valuable Stradivarius violin, from the Wisconsin residence in an effort to prevent the government from seizing the instrument and applying the proceeds toward a $4.4 million restitution judgment that Calabrese owes to his victims, including the families of those he killed.
Klein, 62, of Springfield, Mo., a Roman Catholic priest, was employed as a chaplain at the U.S. Bureau of Prisons Medical Center for Federal Prisoners in Springfield, Mo., where Calabrese is serving a life sentence. As chaplain, Klein was permitted to meet with Calabrese on a regular basis to provide religious ministry, such as the sacrament of Holy Communion. Because of the position of trust he occupied, Klein was able to have close and frequent communication with Calabrese, the indictment alleges.
Klein will be ordered to appear for arraignment in U.S. District Court in Chicago.
The indictment was announced by Patrick J. Fitzgerald, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois; Robert D. Grant, Special Agent-in-Charge of the Chicago Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation; and John F. Oleskowicz, Special Agent-in-Charge of the Chicago Office of the Justice Department's Office of Inspector General.
According to the indictment, Klein knew that prison rules prohibited him from taking letters and messages into and out of the prison. He was also informed of the SAMs and understood they prohibited the passing of any information or messages to or from Calabrese. The SAMs, which have been renewed annually and remain in effect, restrict Calabrese's privileges in prison, including his access to the mail, media, telephone and visitors. Under the SAMs, Calabrese is prohibited from having contact with anyone outside the prison, except his attorney and certain immediate family members. Except for communications with his attorney, all oral and written communications with immediate family members, including mail and visits, are subject to review and/or observation to ensure that Calabrese does not pass any messages to anyone that could be used to further criminal activity.
In March of this year, Calabrese told Klein that he had hidden a Stradivarius violin, which Calabrese claimed was worth millions of dollars, within the Wisconsin residence, the indictment alleges. However, paperwork found in March 2010 during a search of Calabrese's residence in west suburban Oak Brook included a certificate for a violin made in 1764 by Giuseppe Antonio Artalli, not Antonius Stradivarius, the indictment further alleges.
On March 6, Klein allegedly spoke by phone with unnamed Individual A and asked about Calabrese's Wisconsin residence, as well as three questions that Calabrese had given to Klein to ask Individual A. The next day, Klein met with Calabrese and allegedly took possession of a handwritten note that Calabrese secretly passed to Klein through the food slot in his prison cell. The note contained additional questions Klein was to ask Individual A for Calabrese, and also disclosed the location of a violin hidden within the Wisconsin residence. On March 26, Klein again met with Calabrese and allegedly took possession of a document that Calabrese secretly passed through the food slot of his cell.
As part of the conspiracy, the indictment alleges that Klein and Calabrese agreed that Klein would travel from Missouri to Illinois to meet with Individual A. Klein was to advise Individual A of certain questions Calabrese wished to ask Individual A; advise Individual A of the information Calabrese had told Klein about the violin; and formulate a plan with Individual A to remove the violin from the Wisconsin residence. On April 3, Klein drove to Illinois and met with Individual A at a restaurant in Barrington, where Klein allegedly divulged the contents of a handwritten note that Calabrese had secretly passed to him. During the meeting, Individual A told Klein that the government had seized the Wisconsin residence and was attempting to sell it through a realtor. On April 5 and 6, Klein met with Individuals A and B and, together, they allegedly devised a plan to 3 prevent the government from locating and seizing the violin by posing as potential buyers of the home. On April 7, Klein called the realtor handling the Wisconsin home to arrange a time for the trio to enter the home and search for the violin. Once inside, Klein and Individuals A and B agreed that Individual B would distract the realtor while Klein and Individual A searched for the violin using the directions that Calabrese had provided to Klein, according to the indictment.
The government conducted a subsequent search of the Wisconsin residence but the violin has not been recovered.
After Calabrese was held responsible for 13 murders by a judge and jury and sentenced on Jan. 28, 2009, to life imprisonment and ordered to pay restitution totaling $4,422,572, law enforcement authorities began efforts to locate and seize Calabrese's assets to satisfy the judgment he owed to the families of his murder victims. In March 2010, agents searched Calabrese's Oak Brook residence, as well as his home in Williams Bay. At the Oak Brook home, agents seized cash, jewelry and other valuables hidden in a secret compartment in the basement. The total value of the seized items was estimated to exceed $1 million.
The government is being represented by Assistant U.S. Attorney Amarjeet Bhachu.
Each count of the indictment carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine. If convicted, the Court must determine a reasonable sentence to impose under the advisory United States Sentencing Guidelines.
The public is reminded that an indictment contains only charges and is not evidence of guilt. The defendant is presumed innocent and is entitled to a fair trial at which the government has the burden of proving guilt beyond a reasonable doubt."

Tahawwur Hussain Rana Found Guilty Following a Federal Criminal Trial in Chicago Federal District Court
Department of Justice (DOJ) on June 9, 2011 released the following press release:
"Tahawwur Rana Guilty of Providing Material Support to Terror Group and Playing Supporting Role in Denmark Terror Conspiracy
CHICAGO — A Pakistani native who operated a Chicago-based immigration business was convicted today of participating in a conspiracy involving a terrorism plot against a Danish newspaper and providing material support to a terrorist organization based in Pakistan. The defendant, Tahawwur Hussain Rana, was found guilty by a federal jury that deliberated two days following a trial that began May 16, 2011, in U.S. District Court. The jury acquitted Rana of conspiracy to provide material support to the November 2008 terrorist attacks in Mumbai, India, that killed more than 160 people, including six Americans.
Rana, 50, a Canadian citizen, was convicted of one count of conspiracy to provide material support to the terrorism plot in Denmark and one count of providing material support to a designated foreign terrorist organization, Lashkar e Tayyiba (Lashkar.) He faces a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison on the two counts combined and remains in federal custody without bond. U.S. District Judge Harry Leinenweber ordered the defense to file post-trial motions by Aug. 15. 2011. No sentencing date was set.
"Today's verdict demonstrates our commitment to hold accountable not only terrorist operatives, but also those who facilitate their activities. As established at trial, Tahawwur Rana provided valuable cover and support to David Headley, knowing that Headley and others were plotting terror attacks overseas," said Todd Hinnen, Acting Assistant Attorney General for National Security. "We will not rest in our efforts to identify and bring to justice those who provide support to terrorists."
"The message should be clear to all those who help terrorists — we will bring to justice all those who seek to facilitate violence," said Patrick J. Fitzgerald, U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois.
"The effort to combat terrorism and bring justice to the victims is a global effort, requiring the cooperation and collaboration of many countries and many people. We are grateful for our role and that of the Chicago Joint Terrorism Task Force in bringing some measure of justice," said Robert D. Grant, Special Agent-in-Charge of the Chicago Office of the FBI.
Rana is the second defendant to be convicted among a total of eight co-defendants who have been indicted in this case since late 2009. Co-defendant David Coleman Headley, 50, pleaded guilty in March 2010 to all 12 counts against him, including aiding and abetting the murders of the six American victims. Headley, who is facing a maximum sentence of life in prison, has cooperated with the government since he was arrested in October 2009, and testified as a government witness at Rana's trial.
The six remaining defendants are all believed to be in Pakistan.
Headley testified that he attended training camps in Pakistan operated by Lashkar, a designated foreign terrorist organization, on five separate occasions between 2002 and 2005. In late 2005, Headley received instructions from members of Lashkar to travel to India to conduct surveillance, which he did five times leading up to the Mumbai attacks three years later that killed more than 160 people and wounded hundreds more.
In the early summer of 2006, Headley and two Lashkar members discussed opening an immigration office in Mumbai as a cover for his surveillance activities. Headley testified that he traveled to Chicago and advised Rana, his long-time friend since the time they attended high school together in Pakistan, of his assignment to scout potential targets in India. Headley obtained approval from Rana, who owned First World Immigration Services in Chicago and elsewhere, to open a First World office in Mumbai as cover for his activities. Rana directed an individual associated with First World to prepare documents supporting Headley's cover story of opening a First World office in Mumbai, and advised Headley how to obtain a visa for travel to India, according to Headley's testimony, as well as emails and other documents that corroborated his account.
Starting Nov. 26, 2008, and continuing through Nov. 28, 2008, 10 attackers trained by Lashkar carried out multiple assaults with firearms, grenades and improvised explosive devices against multiple targets in Mumbai, including the Taj Mahal and Oberoi hotels, the Leopold Café, the Chabad House and the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus train station, each of which Headley had scouted in advance. The six Americans killed during the three-day siege were Ben Zion Chroman, Gavriel Holtzberg, Sandeep Jeswani, Alan Scherr, his daughter Naomi Scherr and Aryeh Leibish Teitelbaum.
Regarding the Denmark terror plot, Headley admitted that in early November 2008, he met with a Lashkar member in Karachi, Pakistan, and was instructed to conduct surveillance of the Copenhagen and Aarhus, Denmark, offices of the Danish newspaper Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten in preparation for an attack in retaliation for the newspaper's publication of cartoons depicting the Prophet Mohammed.
In late 2008 and early 2009, after reviewing with Rana how he had performed surveillance of the targets attacked in Mumbai, Headley testified that he advised Rana of the planned attack on the Danish newspaper and his intended travel to Denmark to conduct surveillance of its facilities. Headley obtained Rana's approval and assistance to identify himself as a representative of First World and gain access to the newspaper's offices by falsely expressing interest in placing advertising for First World in the newspaper. Before departing Chicago, Headley and Rana caused business cards to be made that identified Headley as a representative of the Immigration Law Center, the business name of First World, according to the evidence at trial.
The government's evidence also included transcripts of recorded conversations, including those in September 2009, when Headley and Rana spoke about reports that co-defendant Ilyas Kashmiri, an alleged Pakistani terrorist leader, had been killed in a drone attack and the implications of his possible death for the plan to attack the newspaper. In other conversations, Rana told Headley that the attackers involved in the Mumbai attacks should receive Pakistan's highest posthumous military honors. In the late summer of 2009, Rana and Headley agreed that funds that had been provided to Rana could be used to fund Headley's work in Denmark, and the trial evidence showed that Rana, pretended to be Headley in sending an email to the Danish newspaper.
The government is being represented by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Daniel Collins, Victoria J. Peters and Sarah Streicker, with assistance from the Counterterrorism Section of the Justice Department's National Security Division. Federal prosecutors in Los Angeles are working jointly with their counterparts in Chicago on the broader investigation into the Mumbai attacks. The investigation has been conducted by the Chicago Joint Terrorism Task Force, led by the Chicago Office of the FBI, with assistance from the FBI offices in Los Angeles and Washington, D.C., as well as both U.S. Customs and Border Protection and the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Office of Homeland Security Investigations."

Former Watford striker Odion Ighalo says Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea is the best in the world.
The Spain international was at his best to help the Red Devils claim a 1-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur in Sunday's Premier League game at the Wembley Stadium.
The former Atletico Madrid goalie made 11 saves to keep Spurs' attack at bay, with Marcus Rashford scoring the solitary goal and ensured they extend their winning run under new manager Ole Gunnar Solskjær to six games.
And the Nigeria international who spent three years with the Hornets, scoring 33 goals in 82 league appearances has lauded the sterling performance by the 28-year-old.
"You have to always hit it very hard and place it very well before you can beat De Gea," Ighalo said on Sky Sports.
"He is the best in Premier League, he is the best in the world because he is a good goalkeeper, he has reflex. He can move, some saves you don't even expect, he just take it off.
Ighalo who scored 21 goals in 28 appearances last season for his Chinese side Changchun Yatai also eulogised goalscorer Rashford for his well-taken strike in the encounter.
"He is good, he is quick, he has good techniques and he can shoot from different angles," he continued.
"He even scores free-kicks, so he is a good player. If you give him chance in that kind of area you don't expect anything than scoring the goals.
Ighalo is eyeing a return to the Premier League following the relegation of Yatai from the Chinese Super League with Southampton believed to be his next destination.
Manchester United, sixth in the log with 41 points from 22 games, play host to Brighton and Hove Albion in their next League game on Saturday and De Gea will hope to continue the imposing form in the tie as the Red Devils aim for a top-four finish at the end of the season.

Allegory on the myth of the original sin of Adam and Eve. In the poem by Constantine Cavafy (1863-1933) "While waiting for barbarians", the Romans expects to be freed from their downfall by the invasion of the barbarians. The Christians does not have to wait for the barbarian civilization, they are already living in one. Adam and Eve has been offered a glimpse of what awaits the descendants of Abraham.
Sacre and Spleen are made as two separate pieces, but are still connected to each other. If SPLEEN is the expression which is talking about pain, grief and sadness then SACRE is the Body's effort to free it self from haziness and reach a sate of clarity.


The reaction to Streetsblog Denver has been heartening in the five weeks we've been covering sustainable transportation and livable streets here.
We've heard from readers and policy makers that Streetsblog has already contributed to the local conversation on streets and transportation issues, challenging long-held assumptions and promoting ideas that had been missing from Denver's public debate.
Our coverage of Denver and Colorado is what's most relevant to you and most important to our mission, but we also realize that our region doesn't exist in a vacuum. There are stories about transportation reform happening all over the country — stories that our readers will find illuminating, engaging, and applicable to situations they encounter here at home. All other Streetsblog sites syndicate these posts of national interest, and soon we'll start bringing you those stories, too.
Our national content comes from two sources: the Streetsblog Network, a collective of hundreds of independent writers who cover the same types of topics we write about here, and Streetsblog USA, which covers federal transportation policy and noteworthy livable streets news from around the nation. Whether it's decisions being made in Washington, DC, or good ideas from other cities that Denver might heed, syndicating this Streetsblog content will make the conversation around biking, walking, and transit more robust here.
So look forward to more content and more context on Streetsblog Denver every day, starting this week.
I really like the blog and think this is a good idea. I subscribe through RSS/Feedly. Keep it up!

He doesn't have a home, but he's got health insurance — and hope
Eugene "Geno" Bochenek says he needs to schedule follow-up surgery to remove some of the "hardware" doctors used to repair the broken bones he suffered when he fell stepping off an Uptown curb back in March.
Like many folks in that situation, Bochenek, 59, was fretting Friday about lining up the proper referrals from his primary care physician to make sure his insurance will pay for it.
But Bochenek isn't like most folks. He's homeless, having slept in a tent beneath Lake Shore Drive at Lawrence Avenue for the past year now.
This business of having health insurance is a whole new world for Bochenek and thousands of other homeless individuals like him who signed up for coverage through Cook County's expanded Medicaid program.
Under the Affordable Care Act, better known as Obamacare, the county was allowed last year to begin enrolling all eligible adults who make less than $16,000 a year.
In the process, Medicaid was extended to a segment of the population long accustomed to either lining up in hospital emergency rooms for medical treatment or doing without.
Beginning this year, those same individuals now have the option of seeking coverage through competing managed care programs offered by private insurers and health networks.
Bochenek will be the first to tell you the county's program, called CountyCare, has been all good from his standpoint. His surgery was performed at Swedish Covenant, one of 38 community hospitals in the county network.
"They're taking care of me," Bochenek said.
Bochenek said he knows he can get the treatment he needs and that the bills will be paid, as long as he puts up with the hassle of getting the referrals, which puts him in good company with many other Americans.
Bochenek isn't usually in that company. Following a childhood with alcoholic parents in Bucktown, Bochenek says he's spent most of his adult life in prison.
He was released about a year ago after serving three years for possession of stolen goods, and following one night at Pacific Garden Mission, decided he'd be better off sleeping on the street.
Once a hard case by his own admission, Bochenek said he's avoided the drug use that used to get him in trouble and is determined to stay out of jail this time. Finding a girlfriend, Renee Martinez, also a former addict, has given him motivation.
"He needs somebody to be support for him, and I need somebody to be support for me," Martinez told me in an interview at Heartland Health Outreach, which specializes in meeting the health care needs of homeless individuals.
County officials made everyone signing up for CountyCare complete a survey, and the answer to one question in particular caught their attention: "Are you worried about having a place to stay tonight or in the near future?"
Of the nearly 120,000 people who filled out the survey, 19 percent answered "Yes."
"We found that to be relatively shocking," said Steven Glass, executive director of managed care for Cook County Health and Hospitals. This was definitely not the typical profile of the insured.
"It's created some interesting challenges," Glass said.
For one thing, today's emphasis in the medical industry on having patients recover from surgery at home looks a lot different when the patient doesn't have a home.
To deal with that problem, CountyCare now will sometimes pay a respite care facility to house a homeless patient a few days before and after surgery, Glass said.
Bochenek says he had to go back to his tent after one night in the hospital, but did have the luxury of the county providing transportation.
Then there's an issue with medications. Anybody who deals with the homeless soon learns their transient existence makes it difficult for them to hang on to stuff — whether that involves identification cards or clothes or a bottle of prescription drugs.
On top of that, homeless patients have proven to be among the most costly, Glass said, largely because so many are in poor health, suffering from untreated illnesses often caused by years of foregoing care.
The state of Illinois is asking the federal government for permission to use Medicaid funding to provide housing for the homeless under the theory it would keep them a lot healthier than living on the street.
Getting off the street is a priority for Bochenek.
"I was homeless twice before this and wound up back in prison both times," he said.
If you're thinking about what all this costs, think about what it costs to send him back to prison.

Recharged Heritage to offer Mini Recharged classic Mini EV conversion to the public for the first time
Bristol's Recharged Heritage has opened the order books on its classic Mini EV conversion.
Recharged Heritage replace the original petrol engine of a classic (pre-2000) Mini with a modern electric drive train.
With two modes available from the 18-kWh lithium-ion battery with a 72kW electric motor revving up 14,000 rpm, customers can opt for Pure mode, which accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 11.5 seconds and achieves a top speed of 78 mph – equivalent to the Classic Mini 1275 GT – or Sport mode, which reaches 0 to 62 mph in 8.5 seconds and travels at a top speed of 92 mph.
With a 6.6 kW on-board charger, the battery can be charged in three hours on a 7kW wall-box or nine hours on a standard three-pin plug house connection, the Mini Recharged offers a WLTP range of 103 miles.
Recharged Heritage will convert owners' existing Minis from £42,500 or source a classic Mini and convert it, with prices around £62,500.
Two special MINI Recharged vehicles have already been revealed: designer Sir Paul Smith collaborated on a one-off Mini Recharged Paul Smith car, which was then shown at the 2022 Goodwood Revival, while London-based artist Lakwena revealed the Mini Recharged Lakwena (pictured) at the European Championships in Munich in August.

Windows Server 2012 is Here… so is Microsoft's Cloud OS
September 27, 2012 altabel_admin Cloud Microsoft Windows
Microsoft has officially rolled out Windows Server 2012, the server partner to the Windows 8 operating system it is launching on 6 October alongside the eagerly anticipated Surface tablet.
Unveiling the new offering on the 4th of September, Satya Nadella, president of Redmond's Servers and Tools Business, has dubbed the new-gen system as the first "cloud OS." In his keynote speech, Nadella described how Windows Server 2012 is a cornerstone of the Cloud OS, which provides one consistent platform across private, hosted and public clouds.
Windows Server 2012 is seen as a central part of Microsoft's new enterprise ecosystem, which also features Windows Azure and System Center 2012 for customers to manage and deliver applications and services across private, hosted and public clouds.
The Microsoft Cloud OS provides enterprises with a highly elastic and scalable infrastructure with always-on, always-up services. Automated management, robust multitenant support, and self-service provisioning help enterprises transform their datacenters to support the coordination and management of pooled sets of shared resources at the datacenter level, replacing fragmented management of individual server nodes.
The new operating system provides a comprehensive set of capabilities across the enterprise private cloud datacenter, and public cloud datacenters.
• Agile Development Platform: The Microsoft Cloud OS allows enterprises to build applications they need using the tools they know, including Microsoft Visual Studio and .NET, or open-source technologies and languages, such as REST, JSON, PHP, and Java.
• Unified DevOps and Management: The Microsoft Cloud OS supports unified DevOps and unified application life-cycle management with common application frameworks across development and operations. With Microsoft System Center integration with development environments such as Visual Studio, enterprises can achieve quick time-to-solution and easy application troubleshooting and management.
• Common Identity: The Microsoft Cloud OS implements Active Directory as a powerful asset across environments to help enterprises extend to the cloud with Internet scale security using a single identity and to securely extend applications and data to devices.
• Integrated Virtualization: To help enterprises achieve the modern datacenter, the Microsoft Cloud OS includes an infrastructure which provides a generational leap in agility, leveraging virtualization to deliver a highly scalable and elastic infrastructure with always-on, always-up services across shared resources and supporting cloud service delivery models with more automated management and self-service provisioning. With Windows Server 2012, the Microsoft Cloud OS is engineered for the cloud from the metal up with virtualization built as an integrated element of the operating system, not layered onto the operating system.
• Complete Data Platform: The Microsoft Cloud OS fully supports large volumes of diverse data, advanced analytics, and enterprise BI life-cycle management, with a comprehensive set of technologies to manage petabytes of data in the cloud, to millions of transactions for the most mission-critical applications, to billions of rows of data in the hands of end users for predictive and ad-hoc analytics.
At the core of the Microsoft Cloud OS is Windows Server 2012. The software supports 320 logical processors and 4TB of physical memory per server, with 64 virtual processors per virtual machine. Virtual disks can scale up to 64TB apiece, according to the firm, or 32 times what it said the competition can offer at the moment, adding that Server 2012 is capable of virtualising 99 per cent of all SQL databases.
New features of Windows Server 2012 include a refreshed version of Hyper-V, including expanded network visualization capabilities to run multiple configurations on the same LAN. Also debuting is a new Resilient File System (ReFS), which improves reliability.
Appearance wise, Windows Server 2012 is built in the Modern UI-style, featuring a tile-based interface like that of Windows 8 and Windows RT.
Microsoft officials say that launch of Windows Server 2012 is perhaps the biggest release of their server products in history, bigger than NT. They also believe that Windows Server 2012 ushers in the era of the cloud operating system.
Do you believe the release of Windows Server 2012 is a breakthrough in the server industry? And do you think Microsoft Cloud OS will be the winner in the competition among emerging Cloud operating systems?
Thanks for sharing your opinion 🙂

The Biggest Reason to Avoid Ferrari Stock After Earnings
By Diane Alter, Contributing Writer, Money Morning - February 2, 2016
Ferrari NV (NYSE: RACE) reported mixed Q4 results and uninspiring guidance Tuesday, sending Ferrari stock sinking more than 15% to an all-time low of $34.03. At today's low, the Ferrari stock price is now down more than 44% from its all-time high.

Welcome to the city of Chittagong! On Friday March 9 we started the first Smart Club in Bangladesh. We are an NGO called Dinghy.
We invited children and teenagers to our premises. There they got information on tobacco, alcohol and narcotics as well as what addiction is and how you can get hooked on a substance. We then told them that Dinghy will help kids say no to these drugs and offer them a better, safer and happier life.
Then they were invited to join a club for pupils who say no the mentioned substances (for a year – at a time). The members will get a membership card and will be invited to different activities. To make it a serious choice, the youth have to sign a paper, a contract, where they promise to say no the substances mentioned. Also a parent has to countersign the contract. So almost all the kids took a contract and brought it home for a parent's signature.
The first Smart Club will be followed in half a year by more Smart Clubs in regular schools, after we have evaluated the first one and seen what changes or adaptations we need to do according to the results and circumstances in our country.


Yup, that means all the banter normally seen between which playstyle is performing better is basically moot when you consider that any choice a DK makes can be out performed by every other class.
The Destiny Softworks Blog has some excellent analysis and alternative sims to provide a view which says the difference between the three dps modes (unholy, frost 1h, frost 2h) is more about the player's skill and the situation – which I don't debate at all. The 5.4 projected analysis using tier also seems to suggest that the choice between specs for maximum dps is also far more about your preference and skill in execution than the spec itself. Well good. I don't mind that, but it is beside the point.
The simulations show Normal mode Death Knight dps ranging from 127k to 134k as the bottom three spec options, and Mages doing 159-173k dps as the top choice specs. A gap of 30-50k dps is a lot – consider a variance of ~50k in a 170k max is approaching a 30% difference. After considering an 8 minute fight even a 30k disparity is monumental – around 14 million health for the boss which is very easily the difference between a 1-3% wipe and a kill. Screw that.
Oh, but what about Hard mode gear, or ideal vs realistic for each? Well lets just say I checked the SimCraft pages for every patch in v5 of Warcraft and at no time in any of the patch 5.n revisions have any of the DKs specs performed better than average. Patch 5.0 through to 5.3 the class from LFR level through to Hard Mode … has been generally exceedingly low, and rarely mid. Those DKs that you see (which might be cited in WoL parses) in raids doing very well are either competing with poor representatives of other classes, have brilliantly low latency to assist, or/and be exceptional players. Yes, and exceptional player will always be better, but give that player a Warlock/Ret Pally/Mage and you're getting 50k+ dps more.
It means bring the classes not the player, well maybe I mean it is saying "don't bring a DK or probably not a Shadow Priest". I know that is not meant to be the case, and that even saying that line is viewed as a QQ – but the sims tools show factors that reflect what I've been feeling but unable to put a finger on.
As a totally subjective example – the weapon upgrade from 508 to 530 was significant in terms of item level for my DK, and should have been huge in terms of overall dps increase, but instead on the same fights I've been seeing almost the same numbers. I didn't know why, but I'm beginning to feel that DKs are not scaling very well, and that our capacity for burst dps and extra damage on low health mobs (which is excellent for trash) hides the lower overall performance on long fights, especially those with one or a few targets.
As a sample of the top Dps by boss in Throne of Thunder in Normal mode, via the World of Logs website – not a single Frost or Unholy DK shown in the top 10 on any fight. In fact Death Knights do perform very well in Dps on one fight AS TANKS on Tortos. Love those bats.
I cannot change it any more than I can give Priests a new melee spec (why were Monks not a cloth wearing class?? Opps! Another time), but I can post about it. Show awareness. Show the desire for the spread of dps ranking amongst the classes to be balanced a little more. That means that Mages might not have all their specs in the top 5-6 ranks for instance, and that some classes with multiple ways to provide dps should have a distributed range in the ranks. Ideally.
I'd also like to suggest that the lack of coverage in DKs in the patch notes indicates that they are not getting much attention, but it is not true. For now the alterations to Death Knights in Patch 5.4 are boosts. Good. Will it place a spec into at least the middle set of potential dps? Hopefully.
Well at least they're not punishing hybrids anymore. Kek. Happy Killing.

Of all of my dps toons (10, all but Druid, have viable dps specs that I play at least occasionally), my Combat Rogue (mid-i480s) is my only toon that feels, literally, impotent. He's swinging a very soft … stick right now, I barely feel competent to run 5.2 dailies with him. My warrior feels light as well but not to the same degree. My DK actually feels about average, although that isn't at i500+ gear level, he's a bit below that still, so that could change with more gear as his dps flatlines and new gear becomes a gold sink more than a dps increase.
Also, death to Boomkins… no clue what happened to that spec since Cataclysm but I went from enjoying it quite a bit to full-on raging incompetence within a few months. Nerf, buff, don't care, it's dead to me. Kitty died long ago. Bear/Tree4Life (or until Boomkin recovers its sanity, I do miss having a dps spec on that toon).
I have a 546 equip dk and I'm going to be honest. Our numbers are terrible on my experience vs other classes in 25mans. In 10man raids with shorter fights our numbers are able to compete due to sustaining burst as the fights are short. But in 25s tgey are terrible.
I don't always trust Noxxic with a lot of things. When I was learning to bear tank, I went there first, only to discover later that what they were telling me was wrong (thank you, official WoW forums and Guardian theorycrafters).
When I looked fight-by-fight in heroic, I found that it's not quite as bad as Noxxic's sim numbers, but it is pretty sad for DKs. Unholy is doing the best in Heroic 25s, consistently middle-of-the-pack. However, on some fights they're in the top 5, and others in the bottom five.
Unfortunately, Frost is pretty literally always at the bottom. Every single fight. Which means on the fights Unholy does poorly, even switching specs isn't going to help.
No idea what they're doing with DKs in the next patch; hope they're going to fix something for you guys.
Hunter is worth a try, especially if you haven't played since MoP started… the changes have been very positive, despite what you'd read in many of the Hunter blogs out there.
I'm loving my Elemental Shaman… Destro Warlock is pretty good but not great (I'm still not sold on the Burning Embers mechanic, especially for AoE)… Fire Mage was frustrating but a recent switch to Frost solved a lot of those problems, been a lot more consistent (and a bit higher) in dps since making the switch.
Also, DKs just got some nice buffs in the 5.4 patch notes as of yesterday, I'm assuming that came out post-your post. I'm reading it as a 10-20% dps buff. Should be enough to get back to a reasonable mid-pack level if that's right.

130 years ago, the father of Spejbl and Hurvínek was born
Spejbl and Hurvínek|Photo: archive of Czech Radio
Humorous puppet shows with a confused "daddy" and a clever street man Hurvajz still entertain new generations. Puppet actor, artist Josef Skupa was at the birth.
Josef Skupa, a native of Strakonice and the son of a gendarme, grew up in Pilsen from the age of five. He had been drawing well since childhood and showed a talent for puppet theatre.

After the First World War, which he spent at the front, he had an eared doll made by the puppeteer Karel Nosk, which became a caricature of the townspeople of the time. That's how Spejbl was born.
However, this character did not enjoy great popularity among viewers. The turning point came with a new puppet made by the carver Gustav Nosek a few years later, in 1926.
Although the original Hurvínek was a bit different, as it had a long nose and looked thinner, from the beginning it could roll its eyes.
Spejbl a Hurvínek - Počty (1933)

Hurvínek's audience success was almost instantaneous, and the new comic duo well received. They soon appeared on radio, on gramophone records and in film. In 1930, the "family" grew to include Mánička and the dog Žeryk.
At that time, Skupa was already the owner of a professional theatre. It worked even during the Protectorate, before the troupe ended up in prison in January 1944 for listening to foreign radio.
Some puppets were hidden, but others fell into the hands of the Gestapo. The group maintained their sense of humour and heroism in prison, when they often played various games from the Spejbl repertoire to fellow prisoners from their cell.

In 1945, during the February raids on Dresden, the prison was heavily damaged, and Josef Skupa managed to escape and return to his hometown of Pilsen. After the Second World War, the Pilsen Theatre moved to Prague.
The group led their favourite Spejbl to the end of his life. Already very ill, he played with Spejbl and Hurvínek on New Year's Eve 1956 in the performance Spejbl on Venus.
He died on 8 January 1957. With his departure, the theatre did not disappear – it is still going strong today and gives thousands of performances not only in the Czech Republic, but in a number of countries around the world.

Q: Difference between require statements inside or outside of module.exports in node.js and .eleventy.js (config file) Ive been learning to use nodejs through site generators like 11ty
11ty documentation shows to add plugins like this:
const eleventyNavigation = require("@11ty/eleventy-navigation");

module.exports = function(eleventyConfig){
    eleventyConfig.addPlugin(eleventyNavigation);
    // other config options
}

Which seems to be the standard across node, require before module.exports, then use the constant to refer to it.
But recently I found a plugin document it like this:
module.exports = function(eleventyConfig){
  eleventyConfig.addPlugin(require("eleventy-plugin-find"));
}

Is there any difference or downside to requiring node modules like this?
Personally I like doing it this way more because fewer lines and less variable definitions means less chances for me to make mistakes. I could see a problem for the more standard use of node modules, but for something like plugins where they're called only once this seems like a much cleaner way of doing it.
This may be more opinion based but I'd prefer not to pick up bad habits if this is something frowned upon.

Underwriting: When an individual or business entity seeks funding for a real estate project or purchase, the loan request is scrutinized by an underwriter to determine how much risk the lender is willing to accept. These underwriters are not to be confused with securities underwriters, who work to determine the offer price of financial instruments. Real estate underwriters take into consideration both the land and the borrower.
Growing rental rates and moderate home price growth should mean more people look to buy in 2016.
Mortgage rates will rise, which should also boost numbers of buyers.
These are the two most important housing market trends in 2016. The pattern seen in 2015 was largely characterized by a white-hot rental market, and if this continues, more households will likely choose to rent over buy.
Demand for for-sale properties will grow and continue to largely consist of older millennials (ages 25-34). This demographic has potential to claim a third of the properties sold in 2016. Generation X could also be big factor in home sales this year, as this demographic is in prime earning years and experiencing better economic circumstances, which include more relocations and finding better neighborhoods for their families.
Supply will also improve as a result additional growth in construction, particularly in single-family homes.The growth will be in more affordable price points, which will help bring down average home prices and average size of new homes.
Mortgage rates should begin their long-anticipated ascent as the Federal Reserve attempts to influence rates up without negatively affecting economic growth.
The final key trend is that rents will rise more rapidly than prices, adding to the already burdensome level of rents that exist in more than 85% of the markets in the country. In the near term, this reinforces the consumer's decision to buy.

Since Italy, with claimed gold holdings of 2,451.8 tonnes of gold, has the distinction of being the world´s fourth largest gold holder after the US, Germany, and the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the stakes in this conflict could not be higher. Furthermore, since Italy has supposedly nearly half of its gold (nearly 1,200 tonnes) stored in New York at the vaults of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY), the fact that this gold has not been seen for many years could cause consternation at the New York Fed if Italy wants to begin gold repatriation moves anytime soon. Italian gold is also stored at the Bank of England and in a BIS account at the Swiss National Bank in Berne.
In Borghi's view, he says that "what is undoubted is the ownership of the gold that was and is of the Italian State." In February, BullionStar covered the full background to this Borghi bill in an article titled "Italy's Gold enters the Political Fray. But who really owns it?". And like in Romania, since then there have been some interesting developments, specifically earlier this month on 3 April when a Lega-M5S motion calling for the definition of ownership of the the Italian gold was passed by the Italian Senate.
With a clearly arrogant Italian central bank which answers to no one but itself, it will also be intriguing as to how the Italian government will find out "news relating to the size and state of preservation of the gold reserves still held abroad" and how to repatriate it.
While the Italian senate motion endorses and supports Claudio Borghi´s bill, the senate motion itself was ironically triggered when Italian Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) Marco Valli and Marco Zanni, asked the ECB´s Mario Draghi to clarify ownership of the ECB gold reserves and Draghi avoided the question, merely responding that the European System of Central Banks are competent in the possession and management of reserves but that the ESCB does not use the concept of ownership to determine the competence of the ESCB.
The conflict between the Italian government and the Banca d´Italia concerning the Italian gold looks like its only getting started, but with the senate motion now approved, expect plenty of fireworks and possible gold repatriation attempts down the road. And with Mario Draghi, an Italian, still at the ECB´s helm, expect the ECB to continue to weigh in on the matter as the Lega-M5S government begins to adopt "appropriate initiatives" to define who owns the Italian gold reserves and to find out where exactly is the Italian gold that is claimed to be stored abroad in such vaults as the New York Fed and the Bank of England.
