'I'm mad as hell': Anger as cop acquitted over fatal shooting
A jury in Minnesota on Friday acquitted the police officer who fatally shot 32-year-old African American Philando Castile, whose dying moments were captured on Facebook video in a case that shocked the nation.
Jeronimo Yanez, 29, was found not guilty on three charges: second-degree manslaughter, and two felony counts of intentional discharge of a dangerous weapon for endangering the safety of Castile's girlfriend Diamond Reynolds and her four-year-old daughter.
Both were in the car when the officer shot Castile during a traffic stop.

The aftermath of the shooting on July 6 last year was captured on video recorded by Reynolds and broadcast on Facebook Live. In it, Castile can be seen bleeding to death in the driver's seat.
The video sparked protests across the United States and further exposed tensions between US police and African Americans.
Castile's family reacted with anger outside the courthouse, and several groups planned demonstrations after the verdict.
"I'm mad as hell right now. Yes, I am," Castile's mother Valerie told a gathering of reporters.

"The system continues to fail black people."
The jury in the case spent approximately 30 hours deliberating, and asked the judge to re-examine the Facebook video and the video from the police car dashboard camera, along with Yanez's testimony on the stand.
US prosecutors have found it difficult to make criminal charges stick in police shooting cases.

Coulthard wins Darwin Supercars opener
DJR Team Penske have fired back at Red Bull Racing's challenge, with Supercars leader Fabian Coulthard and teammate Scott McLaughlin scoring a one-two finish in Darwin.
Saturday's win extended Coulthard's lead in the overall standings to 34 points, while McLaughlin narrowed the gap on second-placed RBR driver Jamie Whincup to six.
It was Coulthard's first victory at Hidden Valley Raceway and his third for the season.
Whincup improved from ninth on the grid to finish fourth, but was denied a top-three finish by fellow Holden driver Nick Percat, who scored his first podium since joining Brad Jones Racing.
The win capped a big week for Coulthard, who announced he and partner Becky Lamb were expecting twins later in the year.
"This is massive. It's going to be a big year so, hopefully, we can finish it off in the correct style," Coulthard said.
Pole-sitter Rick Kelly's afternoon ended in disaster when his steering locked and he ploughed into a wall during a dramatic 18th lap.
With the safety car on the track, Coulthard was able to capitalise on being the first driver in the pits and didn't look back after racing resumed on the 23rd lap.
"For us, the smartest result is to get a one-two finish for the team," Coulthard said.
"We drove our race to getting a one-two. Whatever the order was, it didn't matter but I'm happy to get the win."
Moments before Kelly's crash, defending series champion Shane Van Gisbergen had a right-rear tyre failure, all but dashing his chances of back-to-back race wins.
His day went from bad to worse when he made contact with Garth Tander with three laps remaining, preventing him finishing.
After starting the race 37 points adrift, Van Gisbergen sits 87 behind Coulthard.
"You never want to get points for free, but we'll take them," Coulthard said.
"But it's such a long year, we're all going to have a bad run at some point – that's inevitable. You've just got to minimise the bad days."
McLaughlin was able to recover after dropping to sixth on the second lap when making a failed attempt to pass Kelly, a self-described "brain-fart" from the flying Kiwi.
He also stalled exiting the pits and was comfortably beaten to the first turn by Kelly after starting alongside pole.
"At the end of the day, we came back and that was probably the main thing," McLaughlin said.
"I need to work on my launches and we'll be OK."
Sunday's 70-lap race kicks off at 3:00pm.
London protesters storm council HQ as fire death toll reaches 30
Angry residents heckled Prime Minister Theresa May and stormed the local authority headquarters as they demanded justice for the victims of a London tower block fire that left 30 people dead, with dozens more unaccounted for.
May was criticised for avoiding locals when she visited the burnt-out shell of the 24-storey Grenfell Tower on Thursday, but faced cries of "shame on you" and "coward" when she returned the following day.
Dozens of police officers held back booing crowds and broke up scuffles as her car drove off from local church, where she had met survivors, residents and volunteers and promised new funds for those affected.

There were also angry scenes outside the offices of the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, which was responsible for managing the 1970s social housing block, in a working-class enclave in one of London's richest areas.
There are questions about why the block was not fitted with sprinklers or a central smoke alarm, and whether a recent refurbishment, including new external cladding, helped fuel the flames.
0:00 May pledges rehousing Share May pledges rehousing
"It was a death trap and they knew it," one person shouted as demonstrators swelled outside the council building, with dozens going inside and clashing with police and security guards.
"I have friends in the tower and they are not telling us anything," said Salwa Buamani, 25, who came with her three-year-old niece on her shoulders.
The crowds were later joined by thousands of peaceful protesters in a carnival-like atmosphere, although a few young men tried unsuccessfully to break through the police cordon outside the tower.
May faces angry crowd
The death toll rose to 30 on Friday but authorities warned it would increase further, as fire crews picked their way through the wreckage of the building which was engulfed in flames in the early hours of Wednesday.
May has announced a judge-led inquiry into what happened, and on Friday promised a £5 million ($6.4 million, 5.7 million euro) fund for emergency supplies, food and clothing.
"Everyone affected by this tragedy needs reassurance that the government is there for them at this terrible time — and that is what I am determined to provide," she said.

But criticism of her response has heaped further pressure on the premier, whose Conservative government remains in limbo after losing its parliamentary majority in last week's election.
Queen Elizabeth II and her grandson Prince William visited a community centre Friday where some of the survivors are being housed, and where volunteers have been inundated with donations of clothes and food.
Police commander Stuart Cundy earlier updated the death toll from 17 to 30, adding: "I do believe the number will increase."
He said police had started a criminal investigation but there was nothing to suggest "that the fire had been started deliberately".
Firefighters were using drones and sniffer dogs to search the building, as some of the upper floors have not yet been made safe.
More than 70 people remain unaccounted for, according to media reports, and many of those protesting Friday were demanding the return of their loved ones' remains.
Police have said recovery process could take weeks, and warned some of the bodies may be too burned to be identified.
"We are not stupid, we aware people are dead. Just tell them!" said local resident Karen Brown, 36.
One of the confirmed victims died in hospital, police said, while 24 injured survivors are still being treated, 12 of them in critical care.
Syrian refugee victim

The area surrounding the tower has been plastered by desperate relatives with pictures of the missing, from grandparents to young children.
The fire forced residents to flee through black smoke down the single stairwell, jump out of windows or even drop their children from the building.
One of the victims was Mohammed Alhajali, a 23-year-old Syrian refugee who came to Britain in 2014 with his brother and was studying civil engineering.
"Mohammed undertook a dangerous journey to flee war and death in Syria, only to meet it here in the UK," the Syrian Solidarity Campaign said in a statement.
"His dream was to be able to go back home one day and rebuild Syria."
A second victim named Friday was Khadija Saye, a 24-year-old photographer who had exhibited at the Venice Biennale.
Questions over cladding
Questions are growing about how the flames spread so quickly, with the focus on the cladding fitted to external walls of the 1974 tower as part of an £8.7 million ($11 million, 9.9 million euros) refit completed last year.
The cladding had a plastic core and was similar to that used by high-rise buildings in France, the United Arab Emirates and Australia which had also suffered fires that spread.
0:00 Call for urgent fire safety audit of Australian buildings Share Call for urgent fire safety audit of Australian buildings
The Times newspaper reported that the company that manufactured the cladding also made fire-resistant models that cost fractionally more than the standard version.
"Something's gone drastically wrong," Communities and Local Government Minister Sajid Javid told BBC radio.
Javid said inspections of similar buildings had been ordered, with particular attention to the modern cladding used to beautify and add insulation to ageing concrete and steel structures.
Trump confirms he's under investigation over ex-FBI director Comey's firing
The Republican leader also lashed out at the Justice Department's number two, the man tasked with organizing the probe.
The furious early morning barrage of tweets — his second in as many days — came as the special counsel investigating Russia's influence over his election pieced together a high-caliber legal team and readied to begin interviews.
Trump is accused of firing FBI director James Comey over his refusal to steer the Russia investigation away from former national security advisor and Trump ally Mike Flynn.
The US president has denied trying to influence the investigation, but has acknowledged in an interview that Russia was on his mind when he dismissed Comey.
"I am being investigated for firing the FBI Director by the man who told me to fire the FBI Director! Witch Hunt" he tweeted from the White House shortly before a day trip to Miami.
That appeared to be the first public confirmation that Trump is being investigated for obstruction of justice — and a digital salvo trained at Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who wrote a memo criticizing Comey.
A source on Trump's legal team attempted to clarify the missive, claiming he was reacting to media reports about the investigation rather than offering public confirmation.
Meanwhile, special counsel Robert Mueller — a respected former FBI director — has sought to beef up his investigatory firepower.
Peter Carr, a spokesman for Mueller, told AFP he now has "13 attorneys on board, with several more in the pipeline."
That will only add to a sense of foreboding that pervades the White House, from the crammed collective workspaces of junior officials all the way to the Oval Office.
The widened Russia probe could have far-reaching repercussions for Trump's presidency, transforming his closest aides into witnesses and sucking even more political oxygen out of the West Wing.
Trump was set to escape the Washington pressure cooker on Saturday. Accompanied by First Lady Melania, he will make his first trip to the Camp David presidential retreat in Maryland.
A weekend at the rustic mountain getaway is a far cry from the president's normal routine of jetting off to one of his lavish resorts, mainly Mar-a-Lago in Florida.
Related reading'Rude awakening'
On Wednesday, Vice President Mike Pence took what he later described as a "very routine" step of hiring outside counsel to represent him.
Pence tapped far-from-average lawyer Richard Cullen, who litigated the 1980s Iran-Contra scandal, the Watergate affair and the 2000 vote recount in Florida.
As the legal rope has tightened, Trump's allies have gone on the offensive, questioning Mueller's credibility and floating the idea he may be fired.
Trump's apparent attack on Rosenstein also raised further questions about whether he will stay in his position or recuse himself from the investigation.
"As the deputy attorney general has said numerous times, if there comes a point when he needs to recuse, he will. However, nothing has changed," said Ian Prior, a Justice Department spokesman.
Top Democratic Senator Dianne Feinstein expressed concern that Trump may try to fire both Mueller and Rosenstein, warning "he's in for a rude awakening" if he thinks he can shut down the investigation.
"Even his staunchest supporters will balk at such a blatant effort to subvert the law," Feinstein said.
'Witch hunt'
Trump also lashed out at the media, on a day that aides hoped would be focused on his decision to undo some of Barack Obama's detente with Cuba.
"After 7 months of investigations & committee hearings about my 'collusion with the Russians,' nobody has been able to show any proof. Sad!" Trump tweeted.
"The Fake News Media hates when I use what has turned out to be my very powerful Social Media – over 100 million people! I can go around them."
Trump's young presidency has been battered by allegations — under investigation both by Congress and the FBI — that Russia interfered to sway the 2016 election in his favor, in possible collusion with Trump's campaign team.
The president has long vehemently denied any collusion with Moscow.
Palestinians dismiss IS claim of Israel policewoman killing
The Israeli security services also raised doubts about the veracity of the IS claim — its first for an attack in Jerusalem — which came with the jihadists facing defeat in their Iraq and Syria bastions.
Three Palestinians attacked officers just outside the walled Old City in annexed east Jerusalem late on Friday before being shot dead by security forces, Israeli police said.
In an online statement, IS said jihadist fighters had targeted a "gathering of Jews", warning that "this attack will not be the last".
But Hamas, the Palestinian Islamist group that runs the Gaza Strip, dismissed the claim, saying the attackers had come from among its own ranks and those of the leftist Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).
The assault took place as tens of thousands of Palestinians held night prayers at the nearby Al-Aqsa mosque compound, Islam's third-holiest site, on the third Friday of the holy fasting month of Ramadan.
According to police, two assailants opened fire on a group of officers who returned fire, and a third stabbed the border policewoman a short distance away before being shot.
Policewoman Hadas Malka, a 23-year-old staff sergeant major, was taken to hospital in critical condition and later died of her wounds.
Four other people were wounded in the incident, including two Palestinians from east Jerusalem and one from the West Bank city of Hebron.
'Muddy the waters'
In its statement, IS said the attack was "revenge for the religion of Allah and the sanctities of the violated Muslims".
"Let the Jews watch for the demise of their state at the hands of the soldiers of the caliphate," the statement said.
Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri said the IS claim was an attempt to "muddy the waters", adding that the attack was carried out by "two Palestinians from the PFLP and a third from Hamas".
The killing was "a natural response to the crimes of the occupier," he said, echoing the language used by Hamas after other recent attacks against Israelis.
A spokesman for Israel's Shin Bet internal security agency told AFP it was "impossible to corroborate (the IS claim) at this point."
The Israeli army said the assailants appeared have acted independently, like many of the attackers in a wave of unrest that has rocked Israel and the occupied territories since October 2015.
Most of the attacks have been carried out by "lone wolves", some only in their teens, and Israel has dubbed the violence "popular terrorism."
"A preliminary army intelligence evaluation found no evidence of them belonging to any group, rather they appear to have been a typical popular terror squad," an army spokeswoman said.
Hamas and the PFLP identified the three assailants as Bara Ata, 18, Osama Ata, 19, and Adel Ankush, 18, all from the village of Deir Abu Mashal near the West Bank city of Ramallah.
The Shin Bet said they had been implicated in previous "popular terror activity".
The PFLP said Bara and Osama Ata had recently been released from several months in Israeli prison.
The army sealed off the assailants' home village.
Elsewhere in the West Bank, a Palestinian "attempted to stab an Israeli" north of Hebron early Saturday, the army said.
The Israeli was lightly wounded and the assailant taken in for questioning.
Ramadan relaxation curbed
Israel had eased restrictions on the entry of Palestinians from the West Bank to Jerusalem for Ramadan.
But after Friday's attack, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu decided to cancel permission for Palestinians from the West Bank of all ages to visit family members in Jerusalem and Israel, police said.
Permits for Friday prayers for women of all ages and men aged 40 and over are to remain in place.
The unrest that broke out in October 2015 has claimed the lives of 272 Palestinians, 42 Israelis, two Americans, two Jordanians, an Eritrean, a Sudanese and a Briton, according to an AFP tally.
Israeli authorities say most of the Palestinians killed were carrying out knife, gun or car-ramming attacks.
Saturday was the first time IS had claimed an attack inside Israel or annexed east Jerusalem.
The jihadist group has a major presence across Israel's southern border in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, from where it has claimed several rocket attacks from into Israel.

The best things in life are simple – a bit like these super-casual leather trainers. They're so laid-back they can be worn with jeans and a T-shirt for slouching around in the garden. The easy touch-and-close fastening makes them slip-on-in-a-second-able, while the contrasting heel? Well, it just looks good.

La Plata Program Meeting Tonight!
Join us at the American Legion Harry White Wilmer, Post 82 (6330 Crain Hwy, La Plata, MD 20646) at 6:00 PM.
We will be tying the Green Weenie–sticking with what we would catch in the local waters near us (see link below). No experience necessary.


Sir Peter Blake had a very specific idea of the boat that he wanted to build for the 1985/86 Whitbread Around the World Race. After discussions with a number of top New Zealand yacht designers the design was awarded to New Zealander Ron Holland, based in Ireland.
The result was one of the finest International Ocean Racing (I.O.R). maxi sloops ever built.
Construction of Lion NZ began in 1983, with a launch date set for November 1984. This was to coincide with the Sydney to Hobart Race beginning on Boxing Day - her first real test.
Unfortunately, on completion Lion NZ came in 8 tons heavier that the original design draft and to make matters worse all the weight was in the wrong places, her hull and fittings. It became apparent that the extra weight was going to slow the boat down in lighter conditions.
Lion's first race - the 1984 Sydney to Hobart Race - was a true test. After 3 days, 11 hours, 31 minutes, 21 seconds Lion NZ crossed the finish Lion in First Place. She had proven her strength and gained the nickname, "The Urban Assault Vehicle".
Lion NZ went on to finish a commendable 2nd Place in the Whitbread Around the World Race.

Declining Fertility in Men
When Infertility Becomes a "Guy Thing"How Men Can Combat Declining Fertility Trends
When infertility strikes, it can be a massive source of stress for couples, and many are too quick to assume it's a female issue.
Alarmingly, the average sperm count for adult males has decreased by 50 percent since 1938 and is currently declining at a rate of 2 percent each year, according to a study in the British Medical Journal. Stress, exposure to environmental toxins and diets deficient in key vitamins and minerals are likely to blame.
"It's a fact that one in six couples will have difficulty conceiving, but many aren't aware that almost half the time, it's the male who is the cause of the problem," said fertility expert, Dr. Amos Grunebaum. "When couples address this issue, it's been my experience that the woman is the first to see a specialist to determine her fertility status. It's a little more difficult to get the man on board with doing the same thing. Some men just don't want to acknowledge that they may have a fertility problem. As such, they are more reluctant to get tested and I have seen a lot of men delay seeing a specialist or even avoid it completely."
Unfortunately, Dr. Grunebaum can confirm these disturbing statistics as he has seen sperm counts decline in his 25+ years of practice.
"From my experience, low sperm count is one of the primary reasons that couples have a difficult time conceiving," said Dr. Grunebaum, also a medical health advisor for Fairhaven Health (www.fairhavenhealth.com). "Quite simply, the fewer sperm a man produces, the lower the likelihood that one will successfully fertilize the egg."
However, according to Dr. Grunebaum, there are a variety of ways men can help improve their reproductive health.
"A diet rich in antioxidants such as Vitamins C, E and Zinc can go a long way in improving sperm health. Exercising regularly plus limiting caffeine, alcohol, and tobacco intake can also help a great deal," he added.
While low sperm count is known to be a major cause of infertility, for many men, visiting a doctor or clinic to have a sperm analysis done can be a daunting task.
"The testing process itself can be a little embarrassing and even more so when faced with the prospect of exposing their condition to the doctor, nurse or office staff," he added.
Fortunately, there is now a way to test for low sperm count in the privacy of one's own home. A new product from Fairhaven Health, the SpermCheck Fertility Test, accurately confirms if a man has a normal count (20 million per milliliter). The test can be completed in a matter of minutes and retails for around $35. Should the SpermCheck at-home test confirm a low count, it's generally a good indicator that he should see a specialist to help further diagnose the problem.
"There are many benefits from determining early on if sperm count is a problem for you," Dr. Grunebaum said. "The sooner an issue is pinpointed, the sooner proper treatment can be started. Treatments for male infertility typically include lifestyle changes, vitamin, mineral or herbal supplementation, prescription medication, or even surgical procedures. But before any of that can begin, the couple has to be able to communicate and agree to take action."

How Family Dinners Improve Students' Grades
By Ann K. Dolin, M.Ed.
Believe it or not, your family's eating habits can have a profound effect on your child's academic success. The routine of preparing and sharing meals regularly creates a sense of family togetherness and unity. Though the hustle and bustle of everyday life can get in the way, it's important to carve out time specifically to sit down together around the table. Students who eat dinner with their families often are more likely to:
Do well in school (40% more likely to earn As & Bs in school)
Be emotionally content and have lower levels of stress
Have positive peer relationships and healthier eating habits
Refrain from smoking, drinking, and doing drugs
Believe their parents are proud of them.
This time together has additional well-documented benefits that include:
Improved Achievement Test Scores - A University of Illinois study of 120 boys and girls ages 7 to 11 found that children who did well on standard achievement tests were those that had consistent quality meal time with their families.
Improved Vocabulary and Reading Skills - A study by Dr. Catherine Snow at Harvard's Graduate School showed that mealtime conversations teach children more vocabulary than when parents read to them. She followed 65 families for 15 years looking at how mealtime conversations played a critical role in language acquisition leading to improved vocabularies and better readers.
Greater Academic Achievement - A Reader's Digest survey of more then 2,000 parents compared academic achievement with family characteristics. Surprisingly, eating meals together was a stronger predictor of academic success than whether the children lived with one or two parents.
Higher Grades - Researchers at Columbia University found a striking relationship between frequency of meal times and grades. Teens who have fewer than three family dinners in a typical week are more than twice as likely to do poorly in school. Twenty percent of teens who have infrequent family dinners (three or four per week) report receiving mostly Cs or below in school, whereas only nine percent of teens who have frequent family dinners (five to seven per week) report receiving mostly Cs or lower.
Like anything else, eating dinners together does take practice. The less often a family meets to share a meal, the worse the experience is bound to be. So, plan on as many meals together as possible, even if you serve take out or only have a limited time available. Some things you might want to consider when getting ready are:
Turn off the TV. It prohibits meaningful conversation.
Use dinnertime to tell your child why he or she is a great kid.
Focus on the positives during dinners.
Refrain from discussing shortcomings or unfulfilled responsibilities.
Remember, family dinners are less about the food served and more about the time spent together. Use this time to talk and reconnect. Invite conversation. Ask open-ended questions and really listen to one another. Encourage your child to invite their friends to join in family meals. It is the simple act of being together that tends to increase a sense of security with children, not the elaborate makings of the meal.

Factory, in association with Marvel Knights Animation.
Inspired by the acclaimed graphic novel from Robert Rodi and Esad Ribic, THOR & LOKI: BLOOD BROTHERS takes a powerful look inside the minds of Thor and Loki, two adversarial brothers in the mystical land of Asgard and seemingly forever enemies. But just why does Loki hate his brother Thor? And could it be that this master of mischief isn't really the villain he's been branded?

Marvel Knights Animation remains true to the heritage of panel-by-panel graphic storytelling, boasting groundbreaking illustrations, sensational soundscapes, and of course, the explosiveness of the Mighty Marvel Universe.Behind every image and every word lies the genius of Marvel's celebrated creators like Robert Rodi, Esad Ribic, Brian Michael Bendis, Alex Maleev, Joss Whedon, Reginald Hudlin, John Romita Jr, Warren Ellis, Adi Granov, John Cassaday, and more.
The great halls of Asgard have fallen silent since a new king has overtaken the throne. His name is Loki, son of almighty Odin, brother to the Thunder God, Thor. Once a powerful trickster — the God of Mischief — Loki now rules a grand kingdom with little regard for its subjects. His only thoughts are focused inward, toward the origins of his own pain and suffering. To quell his torment and to gain the respect he feels he so rightfully deserves, Loki must now execute the prisoner chained deep within the dungeons of Asgard, the one man who has ever shown him love. His own brother.
DVD Special Features Include:
An exclusive look back with writer Robert Rodi and Artist Esad Ribic
Behind the scenes of Thor & Loki: Blood Brothers

Worried About Using DEET-Based Insect Repellents?
Safety concerns surrounding the use of DEET-based insect repellents are fairly widespread these days. Fortunately, there's an exciting DEET free option now available to parents who seek reliable protection from mosquitoes and other biting insects, but are cautious about applying a DEET-based product on themselves or their children. The comprehensive line of Coleman® Repellents from Wisconsin Pharmacal Company includes a product with the highly effective SkinSmart™ formula. SkinSmart, which contains the active ingredient IR3535, is safe for the entire family and just as effective as DEET. It provides up to eight hours of odorless protection against the most common biting insects, including mosquitoes, deer ticks and biting flies. Plus, it dries very quickly on the skin and does not leave the greasy residue often associated with many DEET-based products.
"Whether concerned about their own health or the health of their children, there are many parents who are simply reluctant to use DEET products," said Mike Kermendy, vice president of marketing for Wisconsin Pharmacal Company, the exclusive manufacturer and distributor of Coleman Repellents. "That's why our SkinSmart repellent has proven to be such a popular option. After all, it's odorless, safe for use on the entire family and will provide hours of effective protection against a variety of biting insects and other annoying bugs."
The Coleman SkinSmart DEET free formula is available in a variety of user-friendly packages, including a six-ounce aerosol spray, a five-ounce pump spray, a compact Go Ready™ spray pen, and convenient towelettes.
The Go Ready spray pens are ideal for busy, on-the-go parents. They're just slightly larger than a typical pen, so they're an easy addition to a backpack or diaper bag, and they offer more than 200 sprays. The towelettes are also great because they allow the product to be applied quickly and evenly without mess, and the aerosol can is very lightweight and rust resistant. Plus, with the aerosol can, the product can be dispensed at any angle – even upside down. As an added benefit, an easy-to-use Twist Lock cap is incorporated into the aerosol and pump to help protect against unintended sprays.
IR3535, the active ingredient in the Coleman SkinSmart formula, is an EPA registered additive with a proven track record of excellent safety and efficacy against a variety of biting insects. It is the most widely utilized active ingredient in insect repellents throughout Europe, where it has been safely marketed for more than 20 years.

After three years of production of the Aero 10, Aero introduced an updated version of this car in 1931. The new car was called Aero 18. From the exterior appearance nothing had changed, but the motor size was increased, and HP was increased substantially from 10 to 18. Front suspension on the 18 used quarter-elliptical leaf springs, rather than the 10's knee-action dampers. Front brakes were also added – so the car now had 4-wheel cable brakes.

Exclusive: Trainer Matthew Hatton discusses Andy Kremner's Ultimate Boxxer chances
Chandler Waller 24/04/2018
Andy Kremner, one of the favourites to win the Ultimate Boxxer tournament, has the full confidence of trainer Matthew Hatton.
The Ultimate Boxxer tournament takes place Friday 27th April at the Manchester Arena, a one-night knockout competition filled with UK undefeated prospects in the welterweight division.
Ex-European champion Hatton has one of his fighters participating and gave WBN an update on his chances.
"First up we've got Andy Kremner who's in the Ultimate Boxxer which is on Friday. It's a tournament very similar to Prizefighter," Hatton exclusively told World Boxing News.
"Andy's been with me just over a year now and we've had two fights together, he's coming on all the time. He's an excellent fighter with a great engine and has a chance coming up to get himself recognised. The Ultimate Boxxer is a great opportunity for him."
The tournament consists of 3 x 3-minute rounds for three stages. The draw for the quarter finals revealed the match up of Andy Kremner vs. Isaac Macleod, a match-up many wished to see in the final, which Hatton agreed with.
"He's drawn Isaac Macleod in the first fight who is one of the favourites going into the tournament, I think you'd make Andy one of the favourites as well. It would have been a great final, to be honest, but it is what it is.
"Andy's a very capable fighter and I'm confident he's got an excellent chance of doing very well in that tournament and possibly winning it."
Asked if Isaac Macleod is his toughest fight, Hatton responded: "For me and this is no way disrespectful to the other boxers that are in the tournament but on paper, they are the two best fighters, Andy and Isaac.
"If you'd of asked me who we would have liked to avoid, it'd probably be Isaac and I'm sure if you asked their camp, they'd say exactly the same for the fighter they'd like to avoid it would be Andy."
Hatton concluded by supporting his man to win and expressing his excitement for the tournament.
"You've got to beat anyone who's in the tournament and like I said Andy is a very capable fighter and I think he's got a good chance of winning the fight and the tournament.
"It's going to be really exciting; not just as a trainer but as a boxing fan, I'm looking forward to it, it should be a good night," said Hatton.

Q: send email if extensionAttribute equals I'm using two separate powershell scripts. The first one manually defines a date for the specified user's extensionAttribute15. The second one we intend to invoke via schedule to send an email 14 days from the extensionAttribute15 date but I'm getting "Error parsing query". It still sends the email but the date reference isn't functional.
First script is:
    $username = Read-Host 'Enter username'
    $ADuser = Get-ADUser -Filter 'sAMAccountName -eq $username'
    $string = Read-Host = 'Please enter a date using the format MM/DD/YYYY'
    $Date= [DateTime] $string
    Write-Host $date -ForegroundColor DarkYellow
    set-aduser $username -replace @{extensionattribute15="$Date"}
    Get-ADUser -Identity $username    -Properties * | select extensionattribute15

Second script is:
import-module activedirectory
#Show me who
Get-ADUser -filter {extensionAttribute15 -eq (Get-Date).adddays(14) -and Description -like 'Test Do not modify' -and Enabled -eq $True} -Properties * | select CN, extensionAttribute15
$users = Get-ADUser -filter {extensionAttribute15 -eq (Get-Date).adddays(14) -and Description -like 'Test Do not modify' -and Enabled -eq $True} -Properties * | select CN, extensionAttribute15
$users | Foreach-Object{
    $message = (Get-Content "C:\Test\reminder.htm" | Out-String )
    $message = $message -replace "USRname",$_.GivenName
    $message = $message -replace "USRalias",$_.SamAccountName
    $message = $message -replace "USRemail",$_.EmailAddress

    ### SMTP Mail Settings
    $SMTPProperties = @{
        To = $_.EmailAddress
        From = "me@org.org"
        Subject = "Reminder: Action Required"
        SMTPServer = "mail.org.org"
    }
    Send-MailMessage @SMTPProperties -Body $message -BodyAsHtml
}

How can I best define an extensionattribute as a date then use it for invoking an email at a future date?
Thanks!

A: $date = (Get-Date).date
$usersToActive =
Get-ADUser -Filter "extensionAttribute15 -like '*'" -Properties extensionAttribute15 |
where-object { [datetime]::Parse($_.extensionAttribute15).AddDays(-14) -eq $date }
Looking for users with something in attribute and then 14 days in the future.
via.

A: You can format the dates how you like in the extensionAttribute15, so if you prefer format MM/dd/yyyy, then that's fine as long as you parse them out in the exact same manner.
In script 1, change
Set-ADUser $username -replace @{extensionattribute15="$Date"}

to
# make sure the formatting is exactly how you want to parse it later
$dateToInsert = '{0:MM/dd/yyyy}' -f $Date
Set-ADUser $username -replace @{extensionattribute15=$dateToInsert}

Then use script 2 like:
$refDate = (Get-Date).AddDays(14).Date   # 14 days from now
$message = Get-Content 'C:\Test\reminder.htm' -Raw
$filter  = "extensionAttribute15 -like '*' -and Description -like '*Test Do not modify*' -and Enabled -eq 'True'"
# or use -LDAPFilter "(&(extensionAttribute15=*)(description=*Test Do not modify*)(!(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)))"

Get-ADUser -Filter $filter -Properties extensionAttribute15, EmailAddress |
    Where-Object { [datetime]::ParseExact($_.extensionAttribute15, 'MM/dd/yyyy', $null) -eq $refDate } | Foreach-Object {
    Write-Host "Sending email to user $($_.Name)"
    ### SMTP Mail Settings
    $SMTPProperties = @{
        To         = $_.EmailAddress
        From       = 'me@org.org'
        Subject    = 'Reminder: Action Required'
        SMTPServer = 'mail.org.org'
        # you can chain multiple -replace
        Body       = $message -replace 'USRname', $_.GivenName -replace 'USRalias', $_.SamAccountName -replace 'USRemail', $_.EmailAddress
        BodyAsHtml = $true
    }
    Send-MailMessage @SMTPProperties
}

If you want to make sure you get a warning about users with a value in their extensionAttribute15 property that is NOT in date format MM/dd/yyyy, you can change the code for script #2 into:
$refDate = (Get-Date).AddDays(14).Date   # 14 days from now
$message = Get-Content 'C:\Test\reminder.htm' -Raw
$filter  = "extensionAttribute15 -like '*' -and Description -like '*Test Do not modify*' -and Enabled -eq 'True'"
# or use -LDAPFilter "(&(extensionAttribute15=*)(description=*Test Do not modify*)(!(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)))"

Get-ADUser -Filter $filter -Properties extensionAttribute15, EmailAddress | Foreach-Object {
    $username = $_.Name  # capture these properties in case we hit the catch block
    $extn15   = $_.extensionAttribute15
    try {
        if ([datetime]::ParseExact($extn15, 'MM/dd/yyyy', $null) -eq $refDate) {
            Write-Host "Sending email to user $($_.Name)"
            ### SMTP Mail Settings
            $SMTPProperties = @{
                To         = $_.EmailAddress
                From       = 'me@org.org'
                Subject    = 'Reminder: Action Required'
                SMTPServer = 'mail.org.org'
                # you can chain multiple -replace
                Body       = $message -replace 'USRname', $_.GivenName -replace 'USRalias', $_.SamAccountName -replace 'USRemail', $_.EmailAddress
                BodyAsHtml = $true
            }
            Send-MailMessage @SMTPProperties
        }
    }
    catch {
        # inside a catch block the $_ automatic variable represents the actual exception object
        Write-Warning "User $username has a wrong date format in extensionAttribute15: '$extn15'"
    }
}

With that, you should be able to see which of the users cause the error message and you can see exactly what is in that property. For extra clarity, I have single-quoted the value of the property in the warning message, so you will also be able to spot extraneous whitespaces that could trigger the error.

'Glee' + Michael Jackson + Yeah Yeah Yeahs = Super Bowl Sunday
What is bigger then the Super Bowl!?! Well, at the moment it's 'Glee'.
Super Bowl Sunday is one of televisions largest events, with fans from all over coming together on game day to enjoy food, beverages, and football. This year however, 'Glee' fans will be excited to know that right after the Super Bowl ends 'Glee' will be back with it's first episode since December.
In the coming-up episode following the Super Bowl, the 'Glee' cast will be having a mashup of Michael Jackson's "Thriller" and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' "Heads Will Roll". The plot is still unknown, but from leaked pictures I get the sense that it will be as if the Super Bowl met the 'Thriller' music video and had a baby.
Hear the song:
The episode will air directly after the Super Bowl Sunday, Feb. 6 at 10:30PM EST.This episode will also be the first 'Glee' episode to feature one of the King of Pops, Michael Jackson, tracks! I'm sure the 'Glee' cast will sing MJ's classic chorus brilliantly, and not to mention pull off "Dance, dance, dance 'til you're dead" from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs awesome tracks. No way this won't be an episode to remember…
You can check out all the photos from last year on the Glee Photo Gallery.

We are often asked by federal employees and government contractors about the use of witnesses in security clearance proceedings. Because each federal agency generally has their own internal security clearance adjudication process, the use and availability of witnesses is not uniform through all federal agencies. However, where applicable, the use of witnesses to support a security clearance appeal is recommended. Many federal agencies permit witnesses at hearing or during personal appearances.
Typically, a security clearance hearing or personal appearance centers on the testimony of the clearance holder. This is obviously the most important testimony that will be taken at the hearing or personal appearance. However, there can be situations where it can be very helpful to have other witnesses testify. There is also a balance that needs to be struck as to the number of witnesses to be called. For example, at a typical hearing before the Defense Office of Hearings and Appeals (DOHA), the usual number of witnesses we traditionally call ranges from 2 to 4. It is important not to attempt to bring too many witnesses to a hearing if their testimony is duplicative. If this occurs, the judge may be less inclined to hear all of them, or may attempt to eliminate testimony that is not relevant.
"Each party is expected to be prepared to present at the hearing whatever evidence (testimonial or documentary, or both) that party intends to offer. In this regard, it should be noted that the Administrative Judge is not empowered by law to issue a subpoena. Thus, the appearance of witnesses or production of documents is purely voluntary, and is the sole responsibility oft he person intending to offer that evidence. The costs associated with the attendance of witnesses is also the sole responsibility of the party calling that witness. . . .
Witnesses will be sequestered (kept out of the hearing room while other witnesses are testifying) during the hearing, with the exception of the Applicant and any expert witnesses. The parties may have the assistance of any expert witness, selected and paid for by the party wishing to call the witness, during the course of the hearing. . . .
All witnesses are subject to cross-examination, or questioning, by the other party. The scope of cross-examination is not limited to the scope of the witness's direct examination. However, any cross-examination must cover issues that are material and relevant to the issues in the case or the witness's credibility. As a general rule, the parties will be allowed an opportunity to conduct one redirect examination and one recross-examination of a witness. The Administrative Judge may, in his or her discretion, question any witness."
There are generally 3 types of witnesses for use in a security clearance hearing or personal appearance. The first type is a witness familiar with the underlying facts of one of the security concerns. Obviously, if there is a witness available that can support a clearance holder's version of events, it is important to attempt to bring them to the hearing or personal appearance. For example, suppose a security concern involves the allegation that the individual had been previously fired from his former employer and had not disclosed the information on the SF-86. If a clearance holder is able to call his former supervisor to dispute this allegation it can go a long way towards mitigating the security concern.
The second and more common type of witness is the character witness. These types of witnesses can be used for different purposes. Typically, in these types of clearance hearings it is important to call supervisors who may have had the opportunity to observe the clearance holder or applicant perform work in the past. Supervisors can testify (among other areas) as to an individual's loyalty, ability to follow rules, work performance or ability to manage classified information. Other witnesses who have known the clearance holder or applicant for a long period of time, who can testify as to their character can be helpful as well. For instance, a longtime friend that has known the clearance holder or applicant a long time might be able to testify to their character (whole person concept), background or other potential mitigating information. For example, we have called former military colleagues of a clearance holder to testify about the individual's loyalty and ability to maintain classified information.
Third, an individual may decide to call an expert witness. An expert witness can be useful, for instance, if there is a medical concern. For example, there could a security concern involving a psychological condition that an expert witness (like a highly qualified medical expert) could address to support the clearance holder's position that his medical condition does not disqualify him or her from holding a security clearance.
When an individual is engaged in the security clearance hearing or personal appearance process, it is important to have legal representation.
