I mentioned in my review of Days of Hate that there was a better comic of the future by Image. This is that comic. Bonehead is created by the artist known as Machine 56. However, it's been adapted to Manga in Japan. But Image has been taking a few more chances (when they're not allowing Ales Kot and his ilk to produce crap OC) and importing more exotic stories.
Isn't that an impressive cover? I know it's small to see right now, but the full cover is graphically impressive. The mix of bold, solid colors against contrasting backgrounds. That's the world of the comics that we all remember from Generation X. Rhoald Marcellius takes us back to that time with his art. And Sakti Yuwono gives us these bright mixes of actual and digital color.
This is the stuff that makes a good book! The art catches your eyes. It pulls you in when you see a visually impressive color job like this. This makes you want to read the damn book! And what a book it is that Bryan Edward Hill has written. Bonehead covers the tale of 56, and the title refers to his Virtual Reality optimizing visor that's common in this world.
He's being assisted by his handler, Aleph. (Yes, there is connotation there. The Jewish First Letter for A, Aleph.) Aleph is in charge of all of the systems that keep 56 alive. More on that story, by the way, in future issues. The world is a cross between Mirror's Edge and Equilibrium. The cities are cordoned off into zones or conclaves that are either populated by: the government, the proletariat (the actual meaning, commies), the bourgeoisie (the actual meaning), the poor, and the violent gangs.
The first issue covers 56 testing his systems by chasing the test drone, AL-3PH. We see his parkour skills in action as he uses the regular mail drones in the half-hour time span to chase the drone. Everything in his view is also sent to Aleph's computers. As he's always recording, there is always a bird's eye view of 56's actions. And it shows in every single panel.
If there's any negative, there are errors in spelling and grammar. That only occurs in one panel, though. Which with a group that's probably ESL doing the lettering and ink… That's a pretty good number to have. Marvel can't even keep one consistent story from issue to issue. There may be political undertones in this book, but it's not in your face. Even the Gladiator is an honest cop, to be fair.
All he's doing is chasing the purported criminal that they system is telling him to go after. You know, how actual law enforcement works. And we don't have an insight into 56's actual ethnicity, because he is always masked. And the shading work is expertly done so that we never truly identify it. Everything is paced just right to keep you flipping your physical pages or clicking your tablet.
This book is excellence. Buy it and pre-order issue two. Because Blackdeath awaits.

I love the idea of luxe fabrics for fall and velvet is one trending material I can get behind this season. Looking to incorporate non-traditional items into my wardrobe, I adore this Majorelle wrap blouse from Revolve for the season. The front tie blouse shapes it into an adorable peplum style - perfect for wear with skinny jeans, pencil skirts or even jumpsuits for the office. Other velvet styles I'm loving are this moto blazer and a cami tank.
Not crazy about the blazer...but I love the velvet cami you have in the link! I have to get the yellow to go with my leopard accessories!
You're looking like a doll here, your boots and velvet wrap are fantastic!
They need to make this in big girl size! LOL, I love this! GOes really well with the boots.

Levi's Branding + Entertainment — Coupler Mfg. Co.
Conceptualized by Denton-Cardew Design, Coupler was hired to remodel their Hollywood, CA showroom and transform it from a cluttered and overwhelming experience to a space that allows product stories to be told and digested. The entire journey and service was tailored to Levi's exclusive clientele. From the reception area to the private fitting room, the collection presentation areas were all crafted to elevate the experience while building brand confidence and intrigue. The vaulted ceiling attic was also converted to a fully equipped design and work space that can accommodate photo shoots as well as board meetings. Denton-Cardew Design also selected all the furniture not only because of its modern and crafted aesthetic, but also because it needed to work and feel effortless in the 1930s bungalow. An identity system, visual center and a complete set of collateral such as stationary, bags, boxes and notebooks were designed to complete the project. Included photos are displays of Curve ID, Commuter, and Trucker.

The history of the Krewe of Amon-Ra is recounted by our Empress Opal Masters.
In 1965 a group of people decided to start another GAY CARNIVAL KREWE. They choose AMON-RA (THE EGYPTIAN SUN GOD) as the KREWE'S name. GAY KREWES were started to poke fun at the STRAIGHT KREWES. It was also an opportunity to socialize with other GAY PEOPLE and dance the night away at KREWE FUNCTIONS and the CARNIVAL BALL. There were no dance bars in New Orleans because every time one opened it was quickly raided. You have to remember that back in those days things were very different from what they are today. In the first few years, the location of the BALL was kept a secret until the week of the event to hopefully keep it from being raided.
In the beginning, not all members of the KREWE were in costume for the BALL. Only 8 members were selected to be in the COURT. To be asked was quite an honor as was getting an invitation to the BALL. Only a select few of the GAY COMMUNITY received invitations and if you were fortunate enough to be given an invitation, you would never think of not attending.
After our 2ND CARNIVAL BALL we got the bright idea to hold an ANNUAL MISS AMERICA PAGEANT. Several years later we decided to add a MR AMERICA category. All good things must come to an end and after 45 years, in 2012 we stopped holding this event.
As our membership grew, we outgrew the small venues the KREWE had been using and in 1975 AMON-RA was the first GAY KREWE to use the Front Auditorium in St. Bernard Parish. What a thrill it was to have the honor of being chosen as QUEEN AMON-RA X and be the first official QUEEN to walk out on the stage of the St. Bernard Auditorium.
In the 70'S and early 80'S THE GAY KREWES were at their peak. Large memberships and very lavish MARDI GRAS BALLS were held. As many as 14 GAY KREWES existed. Our straight friends all wanted invitations and started attending. At the present time there are only 6 GAY CARNIVAL KREWES in New Orleans. Unfortunately, AIDS came on the scene and we lost many of our friends and fellow members. We continued to hold the BALLS and some functions in St. Bernard but the Audiences got smaller.
In August 2005, along came KATRINA and our world as we knew it changed. AMON-RA was one of the few KREWES to hold a CARNIVAL BALL for MARDI GRAS 2006. Tonight, we are celebrating our 50th year of continually celebrating MARDI GRAS with a CARNIVAL BALL.
The KREWE has come a long way … I have been chosen Queen Amon-Ra on several occasions, including Queen Amon-Ra 50th! I have also been crowned the first Empress of Amon-Ra.
We are the only gay Mardi Gras Krewe to have presented 52 consecutive balls and are working on our 53rd Carnival Ball, which will be presented on January 20, 2018. The membership of Amon-Ra is positioned to have another wonderful year. We want to thank all of our members, supporters, and SPONSORS for their help and generosity again this year. SPONSORS are invaluable to the success of the Krewe, and I encourage all members and friends of the Krewe to patronize the sponsors listed on our Sponsors tab on this website.

Employees, who believe to receive poor training and difficulty in grasping the concepts, usually tend to leave their jobs. The prime goal of any workplace, which offers training, is to provide a long-term developmental change in behaviour. Almost all the training programs are designed to instil a finite, but never an infinite lasting impact on their learners.
When you are in the L&D industry for long, you will notice that any ordinary learning is often forgotten in a short period. In order to make a lasting effect on your employee's minds, you have to set behaviour change as your goal. You can apply Custom eLearning Solutions in order to achieve this.
Psychologically, when given the option, most of us click on the "I agree" button without even reading the policy and procedures of any site. For this very reason, it is very important to create a custom eLearning, which will allow your employee to interact with fun videos, audios, and animation, rather than a click "Next" option. This will automatically implant the information provided to your employee in their minds.
Microlearning is defined as providing only with focused and the right amount of information. As we grow older, our minds capacity reduces to digesting only small bits of information as compared to large chunks of paragraphs. While designing your custom learn, keep in mind to make your content very crisp and to the point. This will save time and create an impact.
This is a hard task; to incorporate your company values in the eLearning training program. While onboarding, you must be aware that your employees would have no or less knowledge about your organization. Keeping this in mind, it is crucial for you to include the vital components into your schedule. Mostly, if they cannot relate to what they will be working on their day-to-day life, they would tend to lose interest.
To improve the knowledge of your employees, you must provide them with the flexibility to understand in a practical way rather than just theory. The best way to prepare them is by making them do it. It is very important to understand that each individual has a different pace of learning and grasping concepts, for which, you must allow a self-paced training. With custom eLearning, you have the freedom to include various real-life case studies examples, motivating your employees to think beyond their ability.
If you have decided that, your company needs something basic, then you should go ahead with an ordinary training program, which requires just clicking on boxes and completing the course. But, custom eLearning will offer a long-lasting impact which your employees can refer to even after the completion of the training. By incorporating, various interactive learning solutions like quizzes will help them to imbibe the knowledge and apply this further beyond.
The reality is that everybody wants to learn and grow their present skill-set. As an employer, you need to collect feedback in order to keep a track on each individual's performance. Once your employees know they have a room for professional development, they will strive harder to perform better. This, in turn, will increase the rate of retention.

At this site where 20,000 tons of chlorinated DNAPLs were disposed, SSP&A reviewed regional and site data to develop a model of groundwater flow in the fractured rock of the Lockport Group. SSP&A constructed, calibrated, and applied the model to the Occidental Chemical Corporation Hyde Park Landfill site. SSP&A's role evolved to include all aspects of data collection work plans and data review. SSP&A's approach was to use an equivalent porous medium (EPM) approach using MODFLOW to simulate groundwater flow. SSP&A modified an existing USGS regional model by refining the discretization in the vicinity of the site and incorporating detailed site information. The model was then applied to delineate the capture zones of the current bedrock purge well system at the site. The initial and terminal positions of all particles were recorded to determine the migration of contaminated water below the site. The model has since been used to evaluate alternative purge well configurations and pumping rates. SSP&A was responsible for developing the conceptual design for a purge well system that can achieve containment at the site. New wells have been installed and tested at the site, and SSP&A is currently evaluating the performance of the new wells.

The excessive heat experienced over the weekend did not deter hundreds of Radio Zimbabwe listeners from attending a road show at Hama business centre in Chirumanzu.
Tthe road show was held in conjunction with the Postal and Telecommunications Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe (POTRAZ).
Some walked for over 5 km in the scorching heat to get to Hama business centre for an opportunity to meet their radio personalities, let alone know their rights when it comes to telecommunications.
For some, it was a great platform to showcase their dancing skills.
An economist with POTRAZ, Mr Talent Munyaradzi said they realised that there was need to host the roadshow to inform the community on their rights and dangers of abusing the internet particularly for the teenagers.
The crowd got an opportunity to ask the POTRAZ officials on issues concerning the various service providers.
One of the major issues that continue to affect rural communities is lack of network coverage in some areas.

Advisors bid farewell to chief who listened
Posted on April 29, 2013 by Behind The Badge
John Welter formed Orange County's first Police Chief's Advisory Board nearly a decade ago.
His goal: to bring a diverse group of community, business and school leaders together to discuss public safety issues, to solve community problems and to build relationships.
If his final meeting before retiring offers clues, the effort was a major success. The meeting ended with hugs, thank yous, applause and a chocolate cake inscribed, "We love you." It was topped with a miniature police car.
Perhaps most telling was how the 21-member board spent most of their last formal meeting with Welter. For more than an hour, they debated the pros, cons and politics of civilian review boards.
Some board members said civilian review adds a layer of transparency, which equates to more trust. But a businessman worried that a panel comprised of people who "know nothing about police work appointed by people who don't know anything about police work" is a recipe for disaster.
"I don't have an objection to a board," Welter said. "As long as it includes qualified and competent people."
Welter promised action, saying he would ask city leaders to seek the board's opinions on the topic. He also plans to pursue a suggestion from Los Amigos of Orange County President Jose Moreno to measure community trust.
Welter said he hopes the group will continue when his permanent replacement is named. His command staff is already preparing a presentation in June on officer-involved shooting reviews.
The board accomplished much, playing a role in creating the Gang Intervention and Reduction Partnership, where police work with school leaders to identify and help children at risk of joining gangs; it has offered strategies to business owners to stop graffiti and it has donated dinners to poor families during the holidays.
And it has helped a beloved police chief navigate thorny issues, including last summer's civil unrest.
"I've grown a lot because of your support as well as your criticism," Welter said.
At the end of the meeting, businessman Bill Taormina toasted Welter's service to the community, noting many of his innovations, including the formation of the advisory board.
"You have brought us through some rough waters," he said. "And you have created a remarkable legacy."

The Creole Debate
$22.99 (G)
Author: John H. McWhorter, Columbia University, New York
$ 22.99 (G)
Creoles have long been the subject of debate in linguistics, with many conflicting views, both on how they are formed, and what their political and linguistic status should be. Indeed, over the past twenty years, some creole specialists have argued that it has been wrong to think of creoles as anything but language blends in the same way that Yiddish is a blend of German and Hebrew and Slavic. Here, John H. McWhorter debunks the most widely accepted idea that creoles are created in the same way as 'children', taking characteristics from both 'parent' languages, and its underlying assumption that all historical and biological processes are the same. Instead, the facts support the original, and more interesting, argument that creoles are their own unique entity and are among the world's only genuinely new languages.
Presents data from a wide range of creoles, not just the restricted few that are largely studied by uniformitarians
Presents counter arguments to the uniformitarian view, which many linguists will have had little exposure to before
Reveals creole studies to be far more widely ranging than often thought, including answering the oft-posed question as to what would happen if creoles were based on languages beyond Europe and Africa
'This eloquent and well-researched book on creole languages is the final nail to the coffin of the ideologists who claim that there is nothing special about the grammars of these languages. Chapeau!' Peter Bakker, Aarhus University, Denmark

MTaFB Ch. 55.2
Translator: SJade, Editor: Dj22031
Advanced chapters available on Patreons. Also, a bonus chapter will be released, if you buy me a kofi.
In the president's room, Yan Mu saw that Lu Chengyu had returned, so he stopped his work, "Is your friend asking you for something?"
"Just to talk to us about a joint venture plan. I took a look. This profit is for us. For Huading, it is not a big piece of meat, but there is still a lot of profit," Lu Chengyu handed Yan Mu the planning book, "This piece of cake is too big for the other party to eat, so he came to us."
Yan Mu heard Lu Chengyu. The words were only about business, and he knew that the other party was unwilling to affect the company's profits for personal reasons, he said, "He is your friend."
"Brothers must settle accounts clearly, and friends must do the same," Lu Chengyu continued with a smile. On the sofa, "What's more, I still have 2% of the company's shares. I don't want to make fun of my money."
"I will take a good look. I will discuss whether to invest in the meeting tomorrow." Yan Mu frowned when he saw him starting to play with the computer again. "Your wound is not healed. Don't get too tired."
"Don't worry, I'm used to it . It's the left hand." Lu Chengyu stretched out his left arm, and then quickly controlled the keyboard to issue an offensive command to some software. What he found surprised him, "Boss, how is the relationship between Shengrong and us?"
"You mean Shengrong Company under the name of Sheng Yuyuan?" Yan Mu listened to Lu Chengyu's mention of Sheng Yuyuan, and asked: "What happened to this company?"
"A while ago didn't you say that Shengrong Company intends to enter the capital market after Liang's vital injury?" Lu Chengyu looked at what he found with interest, "However, after I found out that Yao and Li's family had been liquidated, the company's advancement momentum stopped."
"Sheng Yuyuan can catch up. The path of these two families is not strange," Yan Mu said with a calm expression. "This person is very cunning. There is a name in the mall called Thousand-faced Fox. Yao and Li are his paths, but they are not his only ones. He has stopped his momentum now because the situation in the capital is tense. He doesn't want to start rolling in the muddy water before he gets the profit."
"The name of a Thousand-faced Fox is really vulgar," Lu Chengyu told Yan Mu. He still had the impression of Sheng Yuyuan from the bidding in City M. Although the other party was very gentle and close, he could feel the person's aggressiveness subconsciously, "If one can come out with this title, that person must have read a lot of novels."
"Maybe, I heard that he himself likes this title." Yan Mu didn't hate Sheng Yuyuan's style in the market, but he didn't particularly like it either. For this person, he was more inclined to alienate him. "If you meet this person, you shouldn't have any friendship with him.
"Worried that I will be cheated by him?" Lu Chengyu smiled and raised his head from the computer. "If I was cheated, you must remember to get him back for me."
Yan Mu solemnly nodded, "No matter what or who you encounter, I won't let you be alone."
Lu Chengyu smiled, "I wrote this down, if you can't do it, I will do it at my own risk."
"No," Yan Mu shook his head, "I won't lie to you."
Although this man was a little bit silent and couldn't speak sweet words, but such a serious promise still touched people's hearts. Lu Chengyu touched his chin, "Okay, if you are lost, I will find you too."
"Yeah." Yan Mu hooked his mouth, feeling unusually happy.
After the two got off work in the afternoon, He Long drove the car to Lu Chengyu's apartment, and the three went upstairs to move things together.
Because there were no people living in the house for a few days, the house seemed exceptionally quiet. After Lu Chengyu opened the door, he found some things he used frequently from the room, and asked Yan Mu to help him move some things out of the study.
Looking at the packed suitcase, Lu Chengyu said, "I'm really not used to it without these things." At the moment when the study door was closed, he also put the family photo on the desk into the suitcase, although his parents were no longer around, but there were some things that couldn't be forgotten.
He Long dragged the suitcase and said with a smile, "Mr. Lu, this suitcase is really heavy."
"I've put a few books in it," Lu Chengyu glanced at the unoccupied house, "Let's go, go home. "
Yan Mu shook his hand, "Ahh…, let's go home." A place full of companionship could only be called a home, otherwise it was only just a house.
He Long silently tried to lessen his sense of existence. Facing the employers' behaviour of showing affection all the time, he felt a lot of pressure as a single dog.
When leaving the gate of the community, Lu Chengyu deliberately greeted a few familiar security guards, although the security guards were reluctant to have him leave. However, they also knew that Lu Chengyu was often troubled by the Liang family and living in their community was not safe enough, so they smiled and said goodbye to Lu Chengyu.
"Mr. Lu is very familiar with these security guards?" He Long did not expect that Lu Chengyu had a good relationship with those security guards. After all, in his perception, many owners would not even turn their heads when passing by the security guards.
"The security guards in the community are good. They know that I live by myself. When I go home, they will bring me some home-made vegetables and tell me a lot of the principles of the older generation." Lu Chengyu said with a smile, "Everyone here is good."
"That's because Mr. Lu is kind to them, and they are close to you." He Long was a veteran. When he was a child, his family conditions were not good. He looked at a lot of rich people with a low profile, and Lu Chengyu was like this. His behaviour was such that it was easy for him to get other people's favour, "I can see that the security guards like you very much."
Lu Chengyu smiled and did not continue to discuss the topic. For him, whoever treated him well, he would treat them well, which had nothing to do with money or status. In his eyes, those security guards were much lovelier and nobler than Liang Deyou and his ilk. Of course, he was not so lofty that he looked down on all the wealthy people. For example, those few friends of Yan Mu suited his appetite.
Yan Mu glanced at Lu Chengyu, saw him smiling, and said softly: "Will you go to the company tomorrow?"
"Why not?" Lu Chengyu looked at him and said, "With me, your work will be a lot easier."
"Well," not only did the work load ease a lot, but even the mood improved a lot. Yan Mu took his hand over, then put his hand on it, and buckled their fingers together, "Having you there is very good." In the face of employers who were showing affection all the time, He Long had gradually gained the function of selective blindness and deafness. Perhaps in the near future, he would be able to live a good life with a raise.
When the car drove to a place not far from home, it was found that the road in front was blocked, and there were several traffic policemen standing in front. It seemed that there was a car accident.
"What's the matter?" Yan Mu frowned, because there were many high-end communities here, so the traffic situation had always been very good. He had lived here for a year or two and had never heard of a car accident.
He Long got out of the car and went to the front to take a look, and then returned soon. His expression was a little strange and a little gratified, "Mr. Yan, there was a car accident ahead and a Maybach car was hit. The car that caused the accident was a speeding BMW, the owner of the car is dead. The traffic police are dealing with the scene of the accident. I glanced at the scene, and the crash was quite severe. The entire front of the car was sunken."
"Maybach?" Lu Chengyu's brows twitched. "It's the same as the car we're in?"
He Long's expression became even more strange. "Yes, the car models are exactly the same, and when the accident happened, it was the time when Mr. Yan got off work in the past."
Lu Chengyu frowned. When were there so many coincidences in the world, "The time has passed so long, why hasn't the scene been dealt with?"
He Long got out of the car to inquire about it, and said after returning, "I heard that the owner of the Maybach is a certain official. The new car was driven out as soon as they got it. Who knew they would encounter this kind of thing, their identity is not simple, and of course the matter is not so easy to deal with." Lu Chengyu faintly felt that something was wrong, he didn't know why.
"Turn the car around and drive the car to my other villa." Yan Mu took out his cell phone and called the relevant personnel to check if there was anything suspicious in the house he was now living in. If someone targeted him or Lu Chengyu, maybe they had put dangerous items in their home, and he couldn't risk their lives.
Lu Chengyu looked at Yan Mu anxiously, knowing that it was not easy, and couldn't help saying, "Brother Mu, the community security conditions are so strict, it shouldn't be…"
"Anyone who can plan such a perfect car accident can also enter into the community and do tricks," Yan Mu said solemnly. "What we need to do with this kind of thing is to be careful."
Lu Chengyu fell silent when he heard this. Although he had life experience in his previous life, he did not have any contact with certain people. At this level, he was still a novice. Yan Mu was a person who was accustomed to this circle. He knew more about the dark side than him. He thought it was better to listen to Yan Mu's opinions. Stubbornness was not one of his weaknesses.
It only took less than half an hour for the car to drive into Yan Mu's other property. The new villa was very beautiful, it even had a swimming pool, spacious gardens and garages, and a fountain with statues. The level of luxury greatly surpassed the small villa where Yan Mu usually lived, and the whole property exuded the incomparable taste of a local tyrant. Even a person like Lu Chengyu who was not too new to money could not keep his eyes from sparkling.
"People come to clean here every week, and the furniture is all available, so there is no problem in staying overnight," Yan Mu said to He Long, "you live here tonight as well."
He Long nodded, if someone really targeted Mr. Yan, it's always safer to have one more person with Mr. Lu. Within less than ten minutes after their arrival at the villa, they saw a few black Audi cars driving in, and then a group of black bodyguards got out of the car, carrying silver suitcases in their hands, walking with their heads high and chests expanded.
"Sir, you were frightened." The front man in the black suit took off his black glasses and greeted Yan Mu, and then made a gesture to the dozen black-clothed bodyguards behind him. There was a loud noise, and these people opened the suitcase on the spot and began to fiddle with the various security equipment in the suitcase.
Lu Chengyu silently looked at the group of men in suits, and then at the magnificent building behind him. At this moment, he felt as if he was making a rich TV series, and he was the ugly duckling who had never seen the world.
Obviously, when he entered Huading, he just wanted to become a successful person, not short of money or contacts, and then cheat his former opponents. But, why did the whole direction of life become weird after only half a year?
Was it because he had a problem with his life trajectory, or was it because he found a tall, rich and handsome man with a very tall life trajectory?
After these people set up the equipment, they started to set it up in various places, and scanned them inside and outside the house with various instruments. They didn't even let off the pumping valve of the swimming pool, and the grass was inspected inch by inch.
"Sir, there is no problem with the roof," a man with a safety rope jumped down.
"Sir, there is no problem in the house."
"Sir, there is no problem with the lawn and swimming pool."
"Thank you, everyone," Yan Mu nodded to these people.
"Sir, you are being polite!" The head bodyguard made another gesture. All these people quickly found where they should stand, and protected the entire villa without any dead ends.
The head bodyguard patrolled all the places and made sure that there were no mistakes in the place where everyone was standing. Then he walked to Yan Mu again and said, "Mr. Yan, you can come in and rest." Yan Mu thanked him again and turned to Lu Chengyu: "Living here is only temporary. Tell me if you are not used to it."
He was shocked by the behaviour of these bodyguards, then he shook his head for a while and said, "No, it's good here."
Yan Mu found him in a trance, thinking that he was still worried about what happened before, so he comforted, "Don't be afraid, these people are special veterans, and they are very good in reconnaissance and skills. With them, we will not have security problems."
"I know," Lu Chengyu tried to adjust the expression on his face, and suddenly remembered one thing, "If we didn't go to my house to pick up things today, would it be us who had the accident?"
Actually, this man calculated well. He even knew Yan Mu's usual living habits, so he arranged an accident that could happen at any time early. The only omission was that the people behind the scenes did not expect Yan Mu to change the routine today, and the Maybach that appeared at this time was not Yan Mu's car at all.
However, it could be inferred from this that at least no one followed them on their way home. This was also a major failure of the other party. Why did the other party believe in Yan Mu's life so much? Did they deliberately investigate him? But even if the other party followed Yan Mu's living habits, he still felt that this time the incident was directed at him.
Yan Mu frowned, "Don't think too much. Maybe this is just a coincidence. "
At this moment, his cell phone rang, and the call was made by the person responsible for checking the indoor security of the villa.
"Mr. Yan, we found something wrong with the natural gas pipe in your kitchen. If it was not found in time, an explosion might have happened at night. There is nothing suspicious except for the natural gas leak in other places. "
This was actually the most suspicious thing. Yan Mu looked at his mobile phone and his face suddenly became extremely serious.

RSA Encryption with padding as described in PKCS#1v1.5 has been known to be insecure since Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO 98 paper revealed a chosen ciphertext attack. PKCS#1 version 2.0, published September 1998, proposed a new padding scheme based on OAEP and recommended the old scheme not be used in any new implementations.
This hasn't stopped PKCS#1v1.5 padding from being used just about everywhere. Take a look at this table of Smart Card support for example.
One reason might be that Bleichenbacher's attack was though to be impractical: the worst-case analysis of the attack in the paper tells us that 2^20 chosen ciphertexts are needed, which gave rise to the name "the million message attack".
In fact the median case is much easier than that. And like all attacks, the attack algorithm has only got better. Building on advances by Klima, Pokorny and Rosa in 2003, our work published at CRYPTO 2012 showed that the median case for the standard oracle requires less than 15 000 messages.
Still, there seems to be widespread belief that PKCS#1v1.5 is somehow ok if you use it carefully. For example, in this debate on the W3C crypto API bugzilla, one comment suggests that because TLS still uses RSA PKCS#1v1.5 then it must be possible to make secure protocols with it.
Let's look more carefully at how TLS "fixes" the attack. PKCS#1v1.5 encryption is used to encrypt a seed for the final session key, known as the "pre-master secret" (PMS), when it is sent from the client to the server. If the behaviour of the server decryption reveals padding errors, we can make the attack and so learn the session key.
The fix as proposed in RFC 3281 is that if a padding error occurs, we ignore it, generate a random PMS, and carry on. TLS also requires that both the client and the server demonstrate knowledge of the value of the PMS in order to create a signature that concludes the key establishment handshake. This is where the trick is effective: whether the PMS is a real one obtained from a tampered ciphertext, or a random one created after a padding error, it is unknown to the attacker, so the protocol fails in the same way. It is this "poor man's plaintext awareness" that has allowed security proofs for this mode of operation of TLS to be constructed by Jonnson and Kaliski and more recently by Krawczyk, Paterson and Wee.
Just because TLS does it, doesn't make it right
The debate on including PKCS#1v1.5 in the W3C Crypto API centred on its use as a mechanism for the Unwrap command that receives a ciphertext containing an encrypted key, decrypts it, and creates a new key on the client ready for use. If we make a "TLS-style fix" and substitute a random key in the case of a padding error, this won't necessarily prevent the attack: if the attacker can cause the resulting key to be used to, say, encrypt a known value, he can call the command twice and see if the resulting key is the same. The attack has been slowed down but not prevented.
It might be possible to make a secure protocol, by using some kind of hash construction to demonstrate plaintext-awareness – but leaving in an explicit PKCS#1v1.5 decryption step means you're still open to an attack by some other side channel, for example by timing if you don't generate the random PMS in the case of a correct decryption (see this fix in ocaml-TLS) or if you screw up your buffer sizes for accepting the result (see this April 2014 security update to the Java TLS library).
Since it's so easy to get wrong, and since we have OAEP which does plaintext awareness properly anyway, doesn't it make sense just to put OAEP in the API and leave out PKCS#1v1.5?
Matthew Green put it nicely: "PKCS#1v1.5 is awesome — if you're teaching a class on how to attack cryptographic protocols. In all other circumstances it sucks."
The IETF seems to agree: from version 1.3, even TLS is dropping support for RSA.

Where to find the finest cheese in England
The atmospheric cheese-producing town of Richmond in Swaledale, England.
Andrew Marshall takes us on a culinary tour to find the best examples of English cheese in the Yorkshire Dales.
This region of timeless beauty, symbolised by the limestone walls that climb its brooding hills of endless patterns of green against grey, which march up impossibly steep slopes until they disappear into the heather-cloaked moorland, has just played a starring role in the drama of this year's Tour de France.
But there's much more to the Yorkshire Dales than cycleways and scenery.
For centuries people have been churning cheeses here; it's thought that the origins of local cheese-making lie with Cistercian monks who arrived from Normandy and settled in the local abbeys in the 11th century.
Award-winning Yorkshire Blue – a mild and creamy blue-veined cheese
They passed on their techniques to the farmers of Swaledale and Wensleydale and a local industry was born.
Despite the steady decline in bespoke cheese-making during the 20th century, there's been a resurgence of interest in local hand-crafted cheese around here in recent years.
A fine example is The Swaledale Cheese Company perched high above the attractive market town of Richmond.
The signature Swaledale cheese was originally made with the milk of Swaledale sheep or goats and it wasn't until the 17th century that dairy cows were introduced.
Now the recipe and methods for both its Traditional Swaledale and Swaledale Ewe's Cheese are protected and accredited with PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) status, while its Swaledale Blue was a Super Gold winner at the prestigious 2011 World Cheese Awards.
Yorkshire Fettle – a soft crumbly ewes milk cheese with a sweet, piquant taste
From Richmond, head west through the quintessential Swaledale villages of Gunnerside, Muker and Thwaite, over the wild, irresistibly named Buttertubs Pass into Wensleydale and Hawes, home to the Wensleydale Creamery.
Wensleydale cheese is still made to a time-honoured recipe here, resulting in a mild and creamy cheese, which has a fresh, clean flavour with a honeyed aftertaste and a crumbly, flaky texture. Watch the cheese being made, then visit the shop to pick up a sustaining slab of Yorkshire's finest.
In Hawes, the Ribblesdale Cheese Company (the smallest goat's cheese producer in Yorkshire) is operated by Iona Hill who hosts courses aimed at home cheese-makers.
The ewes behind the award-winning ewes milk cheese made in Yorkshire, England.
And if you have time, head south to Ribblesdale to visit the award-winning The Courtyard Dairy in Settle run by Andy Swinscoe, a specialist cheese refiner and purveyor with a French apprenticeship in affinage (cheese ageing).

Jet Ski Operator Charged With Murder
As of Wednesday, May 14, 2014
By LAMECH JOHNSON
Tribune Staff Reporter
ljohnson@tribunemedia.net
A JET ski operator appeared in Magistrates Court yesterday accused of committing the country's second murder for 2014 and for twice trying to kill the victim's friend, who was shot at on New Year's night, and again three months later.
In the first of two arraignments before Magistrate Saboula Swain of court no. 11, Daran Neely, 24, faced charges of murder and attempted murder. He was not required to enter a plea.
It is alleged that on January 1 he intentionally caused the death of Jason Clarke. He was also charged with attempting to cause the death of Clarke's friend, Michael Preval.
On the night in question, the deceased with Preval were sitting in front of an apartment complex on Buttonwood Avenue, Pinewood Gardens, when the occupants of a vehicle pulled up and fired several shots at them before speeding off.
Clarke received multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene while Preval was taken to hospital and treated for a leg wound.
In the second arraignment, Neely was further charged with 24-year-old Rashad Laroda of attempted murder in an April 17 shooting that sent Preval back to hospital.
The accused men were not required to enter a plea to this charge.
They were also informed that they will appear before Chief Magistrate Joyann Ferguson-Pratt on May 19 to be given a date for their case to be fast-tracked by a Voluntary Bill of Indictment for a Supreme Court trial.
They were remanded to Her Majesty's Prison. Neely has retained Tai Pinder to defend him, while Laroda is represented by Shaka Serville.

Wojna trwała w latach 1485–1488, podczas rządów regentki Anny de Beaujeu, pomiędzy śmiercią króla Ludwika XI a objęciem władzy przez małoletniego wówczas Karola VIII Walezjusza. Karol VIII został królem w wieku trzynastu lat, po śmierci swojego ojca, jednak do 1491 regencję sprawowała jego najstarsza siostra, Anna de Beaujeu, wraz ze swym mężem Piotrem II, księciem Burbonii (dopiero po ślubie z Anną Bretońską w 1491, Karol VIII objął samodzielne rządy).

Do głównych władców feudalnych, którzy wystąpili przeciwko monarchii należeli: Ludwik II Orleański, kuzyn króla (przyszły król Ludwik XII), Franciszek II Bretoński, Rene II Lotaryński, Alain d'Albret, Jean IV de Chalon-Arlay, Charles de Angoulême. Rewolta uzyskała wsparcie wielu osobistości, wśród których można wymienić Philippe'a de Comminesa. Ponadto, stanowiąc wystąpienie przeciwko władzy francuskiej, uzyskała poparcie zagranicznych mocarstw, od lat rywalizujących z Francją o wpływy w regionie: Anglii, Hiszpanii, a nawet dość odległej Austrii.

Głównym efektem szalonej wojny było przyłączenie Bretanii do Królestwa Francji.

Kwestią dyskusyjną jest to, czy omawiane wydarzenia można określić jako jedną wojnę. Wskazuje się, że szalona wojna była raczej długim pasmem konfliktów pomiędzy Królestwem Francji a wielkimi możnowładcami, które stanowiły swego rodzaju pokłosie powstania w 1465 Ligi Dobra Publicznego (fr. ligue du Bien public) – sojuszu władców feudalnych, zawiązanego w obronie przed rozbudowującą się władzą centralną Ludwika XI. Kluczową postacią tej formacji politycznej, która walczyła o odzyskanie przez możnowładców utraconych przywilejów feudalnych, był Karol Zuchwały – syn księcia Burgundii Filipa III Dobrego (zm. 1467) i Izabeli (zm. 1471), córki króla Portugalii Jana I Dobrego. Walczył on o stworzenie własnego niezależnego państwa, umiejscowionego pomiędzy Francją a Świętym Cesarstwem Rzymskim. Nie urzeczywistnił swoich planów. 5 stycznia 1477 zginął w bitwie pod Nancy, w której siły Księstwa Lotaryngii rozbiły wojska burgundzkie. Wraz ze śmiercią Karola Zuchwałego – pod murami Nancy – wygasła książęca linia męska, co w konsekwencji doprowadziło do wchłonięcia Księstwa Burgundii przez Królestwo Francji. Niderlandy Burgundzkie przeszły natomiast w ręce Habsburgów.

Możnowładcy francuscy, zaniepokojeni utratą swoich wpływów oraz możliwością podzielenia losów Karola Zuchwałego, zawiązali kolejną koalicję w celu walki z królem o swoje prawa i stan posiadania, co w efekcie doprowadziło do wybuchu tzw. szalonej wojny.

Is NiSource Inc. (NI) A Good Stock To Buy?
Published on December 22, 2018 at 1:17 am by Nina Todic in Hedge Funds, News
Hedge funds and other investment firms that we track manage billions of dollars of their wealthy clients' money, and needless to say, they are painstakingly thorough when analyzing where to invest this money, as their own wealth depends on it. Regardless of the various methods used by elite investors like David Tepper and Dan Loeb, the resources they expend are second-to-none. This is especially valuable when it comes to small-cap stocks, which is where they generate their strongest outperformance, as their resources give them a huge edge when it comes to studying these stocks compared to the average investor, which is why we intently follow their activity in the small-cap space.
Hedge fund interest in NiSource Inc. (NYSE:NI) shares was flat at the end of last quarter. This is usually a negative indicator. At the end of this article we will also compare NI to other stocks including Enel Americas S.A. (NYSE:ENIA), Pearson PLC (NYSE:PSO), and NVR, Inc. (NYSE:NVR) to get a better sense of its popularity.
In the 21st century investor's toolkit there are a large number of signals investors employ to appraise their stock investments. A pair of the most under-the-radar signals are hedge fund and insider trading indicators. Our experts have shown that, historically, those who follow the best picks of the elite fund managers can outpace their index-focused peers by a healthy margin (see the details here).
We're going to check out the latest hedge fund action surrounding NiSource Inc. (NYSE:NI).
Hedge fund activity in NiSource Inc. (NYSE:NI)
At Q3's end, a total of 13 of the hedge funds tracked by Insider Monkey were long this stock, no change from the second quarter of 2018. The graph below displays the number of hedge funds with bullish position in NI over the last 13 quarters. With hedgies' sentiment swirling, there exists an "upper tier" of key hedge fund managers who were upping their holdings meaningfully (or already accumulated large positions).
The largest stake in NiSource Inc. (NYSE:NI) was held by Zimmer Partners, which reported holding $338.4 million worth of stock at the end of September. It was followed by Millennium Management with a $126.9 million position. Other investors bullish on the company included Citadel Investment Group, Blackstart Capital, and Balyasny Asset Management.
Due to the fact that NiSource Inc. (NYSE:NI) has experienced bearish sentiment from the smart money, it's easy to see that there were a few funds who were dropping their entire stakes last quarter. It's worth mentioning that Jonathan Barrett and Paul Segal's Luminus Management dropped the largest investment of all the hedgies tracked by Insider Monkey, comprising close to $18.2 million in stock. Richard Driehaus's fund, Driehaus Capital, also dumped its stock, about $2.8 million worth. These bearish behaviors are interesting, as aggregate hedge fund interest stayed the same (this is a bearish signal in our experience).
Let's now take a look at hedge fund activity in other stocks – not necessarily in the same industry as NiSource Inc. (NYSE:NI) but similarly valued. We will take a look at Enel Americas S.A. (NYSE:ENIA), Pearson PLC (NYSE:PSO), NVR, Inc. (NYSE:NVR), and Bausch Health Companies Inc. (NYSE:BHC). All of these stocks' market caps are closest to NI's market cap.
ENIA 11 60929 0
PSO 3 18126 -3
NVR 25 847007 4
BHC 30 1584429 7
Average 17.25 627623 2
As you can see these stocks had an average of 17.25 hedge funds with bullish positions and the average amount invested in these stocks was $628 million. That figure was $626 million in NI's case. Bausch Health Companies Inc. (NYSE:BHC) is the most popular stock in this table. On the other hand Pearson PLC (NYSE:PSO) is the least popular one with only 3 bullish hedge fund positions. NiSource Inc. (NYSE:NI) is not the least popular stock in this group but hedge fund interest is still below average. This is a slightly negative signal and we'd rather spend our time researching stocks that hedge funds are piling on. In this regard BHC might be a better candidate to consider a long position.

Catholic leaders decry Barr's decision to revive federal death penalty
Kevin ClarkeJuly 25, 2019
U.S. Attorney General William Barr is seen at the 2019 Prison Reform Summit in the East Room of the White House in Washington April 1. Barr ordered the reinstatement of the federal death penalty July 25 for the first time in 16 years. (CNS photo/Yuri Gripas, Reuters)
Running against national trends both in public opinion on capital punishment and states opting to end its use, Attorney General William Barr has cleared the way for the federal government to resume executions. After a nearly two-decade lapse in federal executions, the move, according to a Department of Justice statement to the press, brings "justice to victims of the most horrific crimes."
Mr. Barr has further directed the acting director of the Federal Bureau of Prisons, Hugh Hurwitz, "to schedule the executions of five death-row inmates convicted of murdering, and in some cases torturing and raping, the most vulnerable in our society—children and the elderly."
The attorney general ordered the B.O.P. to adopt a proposed addendum to the Federal Execution Protocol that will allow executions in the federal system to resume, "which closely mirrors protocols utilized by several states, including currently Georgia, Missouri, and Texas."
According to the Justice Department, the new protocol replaces the three-drug procedure previously used in federal executions with a single drug—pentobarbital. According to the D.O.J., since 2010, 14 states have used pentobarbital in over 200 executions, and federal courts, including the Supreme Court, have repeatedly upheld the use of pentobarbital in executions as consistent with the Eighth Amendment's prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment.
"The move by the administration to resume capital punishment after two decades is simply wrongheaded. As Catholics, we're unconditionally pro-life, and this move is an affront to the sanctity and sacredness of human life."
"Congress has expressly authorized the death penalty through legislation adopted by the people's representatives in both houses of Congress and signed by the President," the attorney general said. "Under administrations of both parties, the Department of Justice has sought the death penalty against the worst criminals, including these five murderers, each of whom was convicted by a jury of his peers after a full and fair proceeding. The Justice Department upholds the rule of law—and we owe it to the victims and their families to carry forward the sentence imposed by our justice system."
Speaking for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, the Most Reverend Frank J. Dewane, bishop of Venice, Fla., and chair of the Committee on Domestic Justice and Human Development, issued a statement in reaction to Mr. Barr's decision:
In 2015 Pope Francis, echoing the views of his predecessors, called for 'the global abolition of the death penalty.' He went on to state that, '[A] just and necessary punishment must never exclude the dimension of hope and the goal of rehabilitation.'
The Catholic Bishops of the United States have echoed this call for many years, including their 2005 statement, "A Culture of Life and the Penalty of Death." In light of these long held and strongly maintained positions, I am deeply concerned by the announcement by the United States Justice Department that it will once again turn, after many years, to the death penalty as a form of punishment, and urge instead that these Federal officials be moved by God's love, which is stronger than death, and abandon the announced plans for executions.
Catholic death penalty abolitionist Helen Prejean, C.S.J., was on her way to Alaska for celebrations commemorating 62 years without the death penalty in that state when she learned about the Mr. Barr's plan to restart executions later this year. She called it "disheartening" to learn that "the administration has chosen to follow the death road, when the life road calls us to work for justice for all."
In a statement released to the press on July 25, she said, "For decades we have been gradually shutting down the machinery of death until it is rarely used, a geographical freak practiced by outlier counties. And now, here we have the federal government revving up the death machine.
"The seemingly measured statement from the D.O.J. belies the fact that this is a rush to kill: they plan three executions in one week using a new, untested—and not yet approved—lethal injection protocol.
Krisanne Vaillancourt Murphy is the executive director of the Catholic Mobilizing Network, a national organization working to end the death penalty that works closely with the U.S.C.C.B. "The move by the administration to resume capital punishment after two decades is simply wrongheaded," she said. "It promotes a culture of death rather than a culture of life. As Catholics, we're unconditionally pro-life, and this move is an affront to the sanctity and sacredness of human life.
"The death penalty has been falling out of favor with the American public," Ms. Vaillancourt Murphy said. "The county has been moving in that direction for 10 years, so this declaration by the attorney general is contrary to the way the country is moving."
Sister Helen Prejean: "We know that the death penalty is deeply flawed, with a terrible history of racism in its implementation and an equally terrible history of errors, resulting in many innocents on death row."
Ms. Vaillancourt Murphy said state-by-state momentum against the death penalty continues to build. In Philadelphia, District Attorney Larry Krasner is asking the state supreme court to declare the death penalty in Pennsylvania unconstitutional, arguing that it is applied in a racist and capricious manner and discriminates against low-income defendents.
Washington State abolished the death penalty in 2018, and New Hampshire repealed it in May. California, which has the highest number of people on death row in the nation, declared a moratorium in March. "For the last couple of years there've been less than 50 death sentences and fewer than 30 executions," Ms. Vaillancourt Murphy said. "We just keep decreasing on all fronts."
"The fact that the administration is moving in this direction" comes as a surprise, she said. "It seems to be unthinkable, untimely and not reflective of the way the rest of the country is rethinking this practice."
Public support for capital punishment peaked in 1994 at 80 percent but has been declining steadily since then. According to Gallup, public support for the death penalty——56 percent were in favor last year—has reached lows not seen since 1972. Ms. Vaillancourt Murphy noted that the attorney general's announcement was made just a few days before the anniversary of Pope Francis' dramatic refutation of the death penalty and the church's recasting of Catholic catechism on capital punishment. On Aug. 2, 2018, Pope Francis declared that the use of the death penalty was inconsistent with Catholic teaching, calling it "inadmissible because it is an attack on the inviolability and dignity of the person."
"We know that the death penalty is deeply flawed, with a terrible history of racism in its implementation and an equally terrible history of errors, resulting in many innocents on death row," Sister Prejean said. "We also know that it does not offer the healing balm to victims' families that is promised."
Noting the "power to take the life of our fellow citizens," placed into the hands of government, she asked: "What confidence can we have that our governments can be trusted with such power? When a penalty is absolutely final, surely we must seek a flawless system, and what government, what group of people, can deliver that?"

San Quentin's chaplain: California's death penalty moratorium has given us hope
George Williams
Mr. Barr is Catholic and according to a questionnaire he completed for his confirmation hearing in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee earlier this year, he is a member of the Knights of Columbus and served on the board of the Catholic Information Center in Washington, D.C., from 2014 to 2017. He also served on the "National Catholics for McCain" and "Catholics for Romney" political committees.
In 2014, following a botched state execution in Oklahoma, then-President Barack Obama directed the department to conduct a broad review of capital punishment and issues surrounding lethal injection drugs. It remains unclear today what came of that review and whether it will change the way the federal government carries out executions. That review has been completed and the executions can continue, the department said.
Executions on the federal level have been rare. The government has put to death only three defendants since restoring the federal death penalty in 1988, the most recent of which occurred in 2003, when Louis Jones was executed for the 1995 kidnapping, rape and murder of a young female soldier.
Annual executions in the United States since capital punishment's restoration by the Supreme Court in 1976 peaked in 1999 with 98 executions. The use of capital punishment since then reached a low of just 20 across the country in 2016. In 2017, 23 people were executed, and 25 suffered the ultimate punishment in 2018. Nine people have been executed so far this year in the United States.
Capital punishment has been abolished or suspended throughout Western Europe and in 170 nations around the world. The United States is among a handful of nations—including China, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Egypt, Iraq—that continue the practice.

Like many believers & unbelievers I subscribe to banning the death penalty and remain grateful to America Magazine for staying on 'top
of things'. However I wonder about the choice of photo here showing Barr
looking like a fiend. That's stacking the deck against him. Throwing darts
at the man by choice of a raw photo isn't needed to underscore the argument against capital punishment. To my eyes & for what it's worth. "Damn little" my parrot just screamed at me.
J. Calpezzo
I thought the photo of Barr was overly flattering. It didnt even show his horns.
This was the only option surfacing at our primary news photo source when this article was ready to post.
This article completely misses the point. The only question is: how many of Trump's racist supporters approve of the death penalty?
Douglas Howe

I recently read a feature about the AG in which he stated that his Catholic faith "informed" all his actions. He clearly was tuned out on this one. Has he read the Catechism of the Catholic Church? Has he read the writings of the last three popes? I will pray for Mr. Barr that the Holy Spirit may enlighten him to the meaning of "pro-life". His defense of the Trump Administrations immigration policies and programs suggest to me that Mr. Barr may be a bit of a "Cafeteria Catholic".
Rudolph Koser
The AG has never followed his Catholic faith in any thing including lying and working for a President of very questionable morality. He's a right wing hack. The bishops again have issued a statement that already is in the trash can. Until they show some action, their so called pro-life statements are useless. They only seem worried about fetuses but doing more than issue a few unread statements about other issues, they are MIA. It's no wonder the Church is shrinking as people easily pick up on hypocrisy.
Michael Bindner
Barr is the bright shiny object who made sure the Mueller hearings happen
JOHN GRONDELSKI
The day I hear these same words applied to Andrew Cuomo et al., I'll take the comment seriously.
THOMAS Heyman
Rather than voicing disapproval, the church leaders need to get their duffs and put their actions where their words are. They need to go to DC and picket the DOJ building in their priestly street garb so there is no doubt as to what they are. None of the people Barr caters to read America or care what it says. plain and simple. Barr has already sold down the river his longtime friend Robert Mueller, someone much more honorable and ethical as Barr.
Funny how our hierarchy are willing to refuse communion to politicians who espouse a woman's right to choose but give politicians a waiver when they favor the death penalty. but hen again no one has ever said out institutional Church is not often hypocritical and bears little resemblance to the message of Jesus in respect of how to treat our neighbors (in this case our imprisoned neighbors) as laid out in Mathew 25: 34-46. Barr is the quintessential Republican Catholic frauds who have doubled down like so many others including Kevin McCarthy and Paul Ryan in serving Donald Trump and his perfidious administration. By the way the official position of the Knights of Columbus does not endorse Pope Francis's call for a ban on capital punishment. surprise! surprise!
Mike Macrie
No it was never a Surprise to me because to join the Knights of Columbus you must be a card carrying Republican. I decline many times and said I rather join a different Catholic Society like the Saint Vincent DePaul Society.
Life without parole is slow execution. Execution is quicker and protects other prisoners and guards from sociopaths. It is essentially euthanasia. No one who can be rehabilitated should be executed or be lifer.
Karen Zeleznik
Hey, Catholic priests tried to tell the congregations to vote for DJT. They should hang their heads in shame. Does no one realize that any anti-abortion position held by DJT is only to support himself? He does not care about anyone. As you sow, so shall you reap. You helped create one issue voters. Now, you need to fix it.
Shayne LaBudda
Aren't the bishops going to suggest that their priests bar Barr from receiving communion now?
Mark Land
No they won't dare, too worried about calling out any Republican criminal due to being too worried about that cash coming in from the tax cuts to the rich which they also endorse!
Adeolu Ademoyo
In my response I will rely on the 2016 voting data of the 2016 election by demographic. These data are from Pew Research Center-Online-dated August 9, 2018. It is titled "An Examination of the 2016 electorate based on validated voters." I will show the religious affiliation of the voters. The report says that: (i) 56% of the Protestants(including evangelical voters) claimed they voted for Donald Trump, while 36% claimed they voted for Hillary Clinton; (ii) 52% of Catholics claimed they voted for Donald Trump, while 44% of Catholics said they voted for Hillary Clinton.
Conversely, a solid majority of the religiously unaffiliated – atheists, agnostics and those who said their religion was "nothing in particular" – said they voted for Clinton (65%) over Trump (24%).
The Pew Research Center report also says and I quote . "Within the Protestant tradition, voters were divided by race and evangelicalism. White evangelical Protestants, who constituted one out of every five voters, consistently have been among the strongest supporters of Republican candidates and supported Trump by a 77% to 16% margin."
My Conclusion:
If as a Christian you voted for Mr. Donald Trump in 2016, then you voted for this-Mr. Barr's decision. You-as a Christian called Mr. Donald Trump a Christian. Hence, you said you were voting on "faith" grounds, and you voted for Mr. Donald Trump on "faith" grounds! It means that as a Christian you voted that the Federal Government should return the death penalty. And it has happened. Elections have implications.
May God, the God of reconciliation, the God of forgiveness, the God of unity, the God of love, the God of peace, the God of joy, the God of kindness, the God of mercy, in His infinite mercy continue to forgive us, comfort us, bless us and be kind to all of us in spite of everything we thought or did not think, said or did not say, did or did not do, given our mortality, weaknesses, and brokenness. God Bless.

No death penalty is what the two largest Catholic countries have for decades prior to these last three Popes. Brazil and Mexico have no death penalty and the former recently had 63,850 murders in one year while China had 7,990 with 7 times Brazil's population. So Brazil, non death penalty, has 8 times China's murders with 1/7th of China's population.
Non death penalty Austria has almost the identical murder rate of China but has no extreme poverty from whence most murders arise. USA poor blacks in the ghetto do 50% of USA murders but are a small percent of the USA population. Three Popes have alleged that prisons are now very orderly. Google Brazil or Mexican prisons and read about them...the 2 largest Catholic populations. See how orderly they are. The recent three Pope change on the death penalty came from Popes being desperate to find some admiration from the liberal West. Note that not one of the three Popes addressed Romans 13:4...anywhere in any document and Vatican II stated that both testaments in all their parts have God as their author and that " this teaching authority is not above the word of God but serves it". Ahhh yes...ideals from Vatican II. The Church is now getting murder victims killed wherever she is pivotal on this issue and you can see from Brazil 64k murdered in a year, that the Inquisition deaths relatively will be a lesser scandal than this one which is coming from the liberal ideas within the Church. Prisons are only safe in Europe where mild affluence obtains and there are only recently the arrival of the very poor. China and Brazil have millions of desperately poor but China protects victims who number half that of the usa with its 10 years of appeals...20 in California...2 in China.
Thanks that was very helpful.
You're welcome. I fought a burglar five years ago and had a home invasion this May in which I brought a 12 gauge to the fight and the invaders were not dog gone, they were long gone after breaking all three locks at 2am...NY harbor area. God was good.,.they ran. Shotguns...thugs know the multi hot pains they bring to the torso...if one lives that long.

December /January seems quite a way off. Hopefully[{Jesus] this Barr policy will never get implemented. Hopefully Barr's Catholic faith informed by anti execution activists in the church , can effect a change of conscience in him. And/or hopefully the ACLU and other anti execution groups will prevail in derailing his policy if not abolishing once and for all altogether this barbarism.Now is the time for our prayers, and activism.
Mike Fitzpatrick
At Mass we pray for respect for life and also for the abolishment of the death penalty but we do not pray for the abolishment of abortion?
It is truly barbaric that Barr took this action. Indefensible. Killing begets killing be it in vivo or in our hearts. America is nation of rage and yet Americans wonder how we got here. Connect the dots
Jeremiah Alphonsus
This mag is against capital punishment, but is for communism (don't deny it); hence this mag supports the most murderous political system ever spawned.
Jesuits...I had them 8 years in their schools...after that, I read the whole Bible. You'll see Christ affirm an Old Testament death penalty in Mark 7:10. The verse is invisible to many Jebbies.
Judith Jordan
William Bannon----
Hopefully, you frequently read and studied the Bible with others. Both Catholics and Jews believe in this as studying the Bible alone often brings errors in interpretation. This has been shown during pioneer days when ministers, often with little or no education, traveled the country side to teach the Bible to others. These ministers often "interpreted" irrational and incongruous beliefs that some people still abide by today.

https://sojo.net/articles/5-reasons-why-jesus-people-ought-oppose-death-penalty
Yes Judith, I read the entire Bible sitting in Panera Bread with 4 Jesuits and 4 Carthusians for balance. The Church is now getting murder victims killed in the poor areas of the world because three Popes alleged that prisons are now safe (they are in Europe only...and in China...they are horrendously murderous in Brazil...check on that)/ they alleged that deterrence is only about deterring the murderer you convicted (the rest of the world thinks it's about deterring future murderers)/ and you Judith didn't read Mark 7:10 but think I'm going to read your links. Good luck with that. Til 1952 with Pius 12...Rome talked like moi. In the very early Church of the first several centuries, Romans 13:4 was not yet declared the inspired word of God.." not without reason does the state carry the sword for it is God's minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who does evil." (The Greek for sword there is used for the sword in Acts 12:2 as the Romans executed James).
Now Vatican II said both testaments with all their parts have God as their author (DV/3/11)...and in the same Dei Verbum it said of the magisterium, " this teaching authority is not above the word of God but serves it"...Chapter 2 sect.9. Saint JPII placed himself above Romans 13:4 when he told the whole world in 1999 in St. Louis that the death penalty is cruel and unnecessary (he did zero research on the murder rates in Catholic Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela, El Salvador, Guatemala, etc....the worst murderous and non death penalty part of the earth by UN figures). You are worried about me who did read the whole bible but you are not worried about a Pope telling the world that the death penalty is cruel despite God giving multiple death penalties to the Jews (void now) and giving one to the Gentiles in Gen.9:5-6 which is reaffirmed in Rom.13:4. so your concern about Bible interpretion is a tad skewed in favor of a Pope who repeatedly dissed certain aspects of the Bible (see him on wifely obedience in DM,TOB and on the dp in EV.)
This is what happens when the Bishops not only endorse, but also preach alt right wing ideologies from the pulpit. With right wing fascism at our doorstep in America and criminals taking over the Republican Party, it is imperative Bishops begin to speak out against right wing politics and ideologies.
