Gillibrand urges support for struggling families
By Melanie Lekocevic
Columbia-Greene Media
Aug 5, 2020 Updated Aug 14, 2020
As Congress negotiates the next round of coronavirus relief legislation, U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., is calling on the federal government to address the needs of struggling families.
The pandemic, now in its sixth month, continues to rage across the nation, taking its toll on both public health and the economy.
Republicans and Democrats in Washington have been doing battle over the specifics of the proposed $3 trillion legislation, known as the Health and Economic Recovery Omnibus Emergency Solutions, or HEROES, Act.
"The House [of Representatives] passed the HEROES Act two-and-a-half months ago. That means Sen. [Mitch] McConnell has had more than enough time to bring it to the floor for debate and/or to present a workable alternative," Gillibrand said in a video conference call Wednesday afternoon. "Instead, he has dragged his feet."
The virus outbreak that began in mid-March and continues unabated nationwide has caused the largest contraction of the economy in recent memory, Gillibrand said.
"More than 31 million Americans were out of work last month and receiving unemployment insurance," she said.
The level of unemployment insurance benefits provided by the Heroes Act is among the most hotly contested differences between Republican and Democratic elected officials. Under the CARES Act — the first pandemic relief legislation — those who lost their jobs during the outbreak became eligible for an additional $600 weekly in unemployment insurance, above the standard amount they would otherwise have received. Democrats want to maintain unemployment benefits at that same level, while Republicans want to reduce the additional amount people receive to $200.
Republicans argue that the enhanced benefits are discouraging some people from going back to work, opting instead to continue receiving unemployment benefits.
Gillibrand said that argument ignores many currently collecting unemployment do not have a job to go back to.
"Extending the $600 unemployment insurance should be a priority, and priority No. 1," Gillibrand said. "Arguments that the enhanced benefits keep people from going back to work ignore the fact that many industries and jobs have not come back yet, and that millions can't return to work."
Even with those additional benefits, Americans have still been struggling with finances, child care, economic uncertainty and more, Gillibrand said. One in five families can't put food on the table, and one in three have missed a rent payment, she said.
"More than 29 million American households didn't get enough to eat in the last week. More than 14 million people are behind on rent, and the services those Americans rely on from their state and local governments are in jeopardy," she said.
Gillibrand, along with Gov. Andrew Cuomo, has been calling on the federal government to come to the aid of states and municipalities whose budgets have been strained by a loss of revenue as the economy remained shut down for an extended time, as well as increased expenses for virus testing, overtime for local health officials, and other expenses. The budget shortfalls for states nationwide are projected to reach around $500 billion.
"Any plan to provide relief must address those fundamental needs," Gillibrand said. "Instead, Sen. McConnell is focusing on providing businesses with blanket liability protection that would exempt them from even the most egregious actions."
Liability protection would shield employers from coronavirus-related lawsuits.
U.S. Rep. Antonio Delgado, D-19, said in a statement that he, too, has been hearing from people in his district who are struggling during the protracted public health crisis, and wants the federal government to come to the aid of states and municipalities that have substantial budget shortfalls due to the pandemic.
"As negotiations continue, I am laser-focused on ensuring communities of every size can access much-needed federal funding. This is why I introduced the bipartisan Direct Support for Communities Act, which passed the House as part of the HEROES Act," Delgado said.
He is calling on the federal government to support municipalities during the pandemic so local governments can continue to provide essential services despite budget shortfalls.
"I will keep urging my colleagues to understand how critical federal funding is to support vital services that ensure the health and economic well-being of our communities," Delgado said. "The fact that the Senate Republicans' proposal doesn't offer a single new cent in federal relief while our counties face a dire fiscal future is an outrage. We must be better than this. Our communities need relief, not partisan posturing," said Delgado.
Passing legislation that supports struggling individuals and families cannot wait, Gillibrand said, urging extension of the eviction moratorium to protect families that are in danger of losing their homes.
"This is not an issue that can wait for a solution," she said. "You can't provide a meal for your family retroactively."
While the two parties are battling over specifics of the HEROES Act, there is common ground, Gillibrand said, specifically sending another round of $1,200 in stimulus checks to eligible families nationwide.
Gillibrand is also seeking $50 billion in federal funding to stabilize child care providers looking to safely reopen their doors to support families as they return to the workplace, and expansion of SNAP benefits to provide food for needy families.

The Northeasts paradox is that it is a region with a high human development index and poor economic growth. This multi-disciplinary study compares the regions human development record with the countrys other states. They emphasize that the mismatch between the development index and economic growth is at the root of social tensions in the northeast.

Over the last decade there has been growing awareness of the burdern humans place on the ecosystem. The history of human populations acquires a new interest in this context.
This book focuses on the interaction between demography, climate, health, medicine and culture. It also includes the evolution of environmental hygiene in India through the twentieth century.


THEIR current campaign may not yet be over but the bookmakers have already installed three-in-a-row champions Ballinderry as clear favourites to retain the Derry Senior Football Championship in 2014.
Having brought the John McLaughlin Cup back to the loughshore uninterrupted since 2011, the Shamrocks are just 6/4 with some bookmakers to extend their winning run to a fourth season.
More tellingly, there isn't even a close second favourite. Slaughtneil, Dungiven and Coleraine are joint second favourites and are as far out as 7/1.
Two of those will be under new management, with Mickey Moran taking over the Emmet's, while Dungiven are under the stewardship of Kevin Madden.
Kilrea, who appeared to be working their way towards a first ever title when they reached the final in 2011 only to fall back since then, are still without a manager for the new season and are out at 15/2.
Interestingly, the bookies aren't putting much faith in Ballinascreen repeating their 2013 run to the county final. The St. Colm's side, still under the trio of Marty and Mickey Boyle and Ciaran Meenagh, are at 10/1.
Peter Doherty's Loup team, Michael O'Kane's Glenullin and managerless Banagher are next at 14/1, while one of last year's semi-finalists Lavey are out at 16/1.
Magherafelt, Bellaghy (both 25/1), Steelstown (28/1), Newbridge, Swatragh and newcomers Foreglen (all 50/1) come in well out of the reckoning.

The Chicken Chronicles
Sitting with the Angels Who Have Returned with My Memories: Glorious, Rufus, Gertrude Stein, Splendor, Hortensia, Agnes of God, the Gladyses, & Babe: A Memoir
Pulitzer Prize–winning novelist, activist, and spiritual guide Alice Walker offers an extraordinary account of a year in the life of her flock of backyard chickens—a story of personal discovery, affirmation, and the joys of relating to animals
"Who knew what would happen next? Who could guess? That I would fall headlong into a mystery. That I would find myself pulled into the parallel universe all the other animals exist in, simultaneous with us. In other words, before a couple of days had passed, watering and feeding the chickens, I had fallen in love with them." —from The Chicken Chronicles
Here is a glorious, offbeat, compassionate, and "eccentrically inspirational" (Kirkus Reviews) memoir in which Alice Walker shares her experiences raising and caring for a flock of chickens. In pieces that are by turns moving, thoughtful, and utterly captivating, Walker addresses her "girls" directly, sometimes from the intimate proximity of her yard, other times at a great distance, during her travels to Bali and Dharamsala as an activist for peace and justice. On the way, she invites readers along on a surprising journey of inspiration, strength, and spiritual discovery.
Uplifting, heartbreaking, and memorable, The Chicken Chronicles lets us see a new and deeply personal side of one of the most inspiring writers of our time. It is also a powerful touchstone for anyone seeking a deeper connection with the natural world.
"[These] poignant and wonderfully eccentric short essays . . . illuminate some of life's weightiest lessons. Who knew all of this could be found in a backyard henhouse?"
—Utne Reader
"With an eye for wonderment and plenty of surprising wry humor . . . The Chicken Chronicles is work bringing home to roost."
—The Philadelphia Tribune
"Rich, with offbeat, unexpected details . . . [an] ideal blend between earnestness and self-deprecation that makes this book so engaging."
Maya Angelou was an indomitable spirit of great generosity, kindness, and love.

Barnes, what an arse
Jack Linthwaite says:
also dont lecture me on how to get over a loss, ive had my fair share and i guarantee as a saints fan i've had more disappointment than you
ive played rugby for 12 years and been a qualified ref for 4, im the first to say when the referee has made good call against my team because i know what its like… the laws that specify when a ball is live and dead say that in this situation the half should have ended, when i have said you have replied with some made up laws, you're right i do want it written specifically in the laws because if it isnt then Barnes should not have enforced it….
Juan Martín Montoro says:
Barnes acted according to the laws, you just don't want to acknowledge it. No one else is arguing that the drop-out is illegal and that the option of the scrum was still playable. As a fan and as a player I lost on what I considered unfairly a lot of times, whether I was right or wrong, I learned that I just can't go back and do something about it but the best is to dig it really deep and move on.
referee's, as well as ensuring safety of the players and that the players also abide by the laws of the game, are there to manage the game with continuity… there is a law stating that the hindmost player of the scrum has to be the one to pick the ball up if a scrum wheels, however it almost always is the No.8, that is against the law but is never penalised, If Barnes had some sort of sense of this maybe he would have ended the half as everyone thought he would and thought he should…
He said 'no' three times. If taking the victim position makes you feel better then do, but this argument has no point anymore, you don't want to understand the rules and you are seeing and hearing what is best to your interests instead of what actually happened.
the same principle does not apply, that is why they are covered in different laws in the law book, if the same principle applied then that would be stated, since it isnt stated im going to say that its not true, but im sorry intentionally infringing a law? Myler asked if he could kick the ball into touch and Barnes said yes, if Barnes had penalised him for that he would never referee again for the ridicule he'd receive…
The same principle applies but since you want a specific action to be written in the laws you'll never be satisfied.
Per definition a drop-out is used to restart play after the ball went dead, hence an illegal drop-out won't restart play and choosing an option is not a restart. If this still doesn't satisfy you then the referee should've called a penalty against Myler according to law 10.2(a) for intentionally infringing a law by kicking a drop-out directly into touch.
well again you're wrong, those laws apply to restarts not drop outs as is stated clearly on the page you just posted… the laws on drop outs such as the one we are discussing do not start until law 13.10… and the only thing about a drop out going straight into touch is in law 13.14 which you already quoted and doesnt specify anything about the ball being dead or live or the kick being void…
irblaws dot com/index.php?domain=10&clarlaw=5&clarification=2
"The referee will offer the non-offending team the options provided by Law 13.7, 13.8 and 13.9 respectively and the match continues until the ball next becomes dead."
from what you're saying after the kick the ball never became live, however lets say a tigers player knocked the ball on as it was in the air or before it bounced, that is an offence so the ball is live… that means the ball next becomes dead when the scrum is given which was after time was up… meaning the half should have ended, there is no law in the lawbook stating the definition of the ball being live so if you can provide it then please enlighten me…

Hello, I am Nichole D'Angelo. From the first TRS-80 computer that I remember owning I have been an addicted gamer. I remember my mom screaming at me to get off the computer as I waited the 10 minutes it would take to load flight simulator on that device so long ago.
As time went on my addiction continued to grow and my computers evolved into better, faster and more capable ones. When I had my Commodore 128 I purchased a game at Walden's Books named Elite and that was the game that pushed me over the edge.
For years I was mostly into Flight Sims, and then in 1998 someone bought me copy if Everquest. This was the first detour away from the above. EQ lead to EQ2 and Str Wars Galaxies and eventually World of Warcraft. I fell deep for this genre and even started a Podcast called The Addicted Gamer where I interviewed Developers, Podcasters and Game Players.
That is where I have been unit last summers Steam Sale. I purchased Kerbal Space Program and fell in love with building and launching rockets. KSP reintroduced me to youtube and I began watching every video Scott Manley made on KSP. Then one day Scott released a video named "Before Star Citizen there was Wing Commander". I passed over it thinking, "Oh no! Has Chris Roberts suddenly decided to try to make real rockets and went about my happy days building rockets and heading off to Minmus, The Mün and Duna. Eventually my love for KSP lead to this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWFZwFfg-28&list=P... and so began my youtube channel.
Well I eventually watched that Scott Manley video and I rushed over to the RSI website and created an account. At the time I was broke, in debt and hurting as bad as anyone could financially. I couldn't pledge for one of the amazing starships and instead had to wait. Finally on August 27, 2013 I took the plunge and pledged for the game. It was everything I was looking for. A genre that included MMORPG elements, a Space Combat sim, trading, First Person Shooter and so much more. I then subscribed and created a thread in the Subscribers Den that has now reached over 11,000 comments.
In October I started to play around with doing regularly released youtube videos on Star Citizen, KSP and War Thunder. Little by little things started to come in line. I now produce 3 different shows and a podcast. Star Citizen AA for news related to the Star Citizen Universe, Let's Pew Pew with Nikki Batgirl D'Angelo, for let's play videos related to Star Citizen and Elite Dangerous, and The Addicted Gamer which will be a collection of videos base on all the other games I like to play. War Thunder AA and Kerbal Space Program AA are still there just in case I create a video for one of those, but they will not be regularly produced like the other three.
From here it all depends on how successful this campaign is. I am looking to up the quality of the videos and introduce more compelling content. So far I have started to create a set, and learn about lighting. I am sure that with your help, my addiction will continue as will the content I create for all of you.
- I'll call out your name as a premium supporter on the show!
- you will be entered in a premium supporter only drawing each month to win Star Citizen or Elite Dangerous Swag!

Piedmont Office Realty Trust Sells Seattle Property | Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc.
ATLANTA , GA - July 6, 2011 - Piedmont Office Realty Trust (NYSE: PDM) announced today that it has completed the sale of its Eastpointe Corporate Center property, located in suburban Seattle at 22833 SE Black Nugget Road, Issaquah, WA for approximately $32 million.
The Lake Washington Land Company, LLC purchased the 156,323 square-foot Class-A property from Piedmont, who acquired it in 2003. Comprised of approximately 5.79 acres, Eastpointe Corporate Center was constructed in 2001.
The owner was represented by J.J. Shephard and Steve Schwartz of Pacific Real Estate partners, as well as Piedmont's Joseph Pangburn, Senior Vice President-Asset Management and Brad Pittman, Director-Capital Markets. The buyer was represented by Jeff Jochums of Commerce Real Estate Solutions, member of the Cushman & Wakefield Alliance.
"The sale of Eastpointe Corporate Center further demonstrates our focus on select markets," said Raymond L. Owens, Executive Vice President, Capital Markets for Piedmont. "Although our investment in the Seattle market has proven to be positive, the disposition of this property allows us the opportunity to thoughtfully recycle our capital into our top ten office markets nationally," added Owens.
Piedmont, along with its joint venture partners, also recently completed the sale of a property at 360 Interlocken Blvd. in Broomfield, CO for $9.15 million. Piedmont had a minority interest in the property.

The Bella Twins speak on Victoria in the Royal Rumble and the influence she had on them
By Nick Wilkinson
In the latest installment of The Bella Twins podcast, they speak on Victoria's appearance in this year's Royal Rumble match. Victoria was one of a few shocks for this year's match which had fans buzzing.
The Bella Twins were buzzing as well especially since it was Victoria who helped them get their start on the main roster. Brie Bella earned a victory in her debut on SmackDown in 2008 despite it was Nikki Bella who got the pin after Twin Magic took place under the ring with the switch.
The Bellas mention on their podcast that they would have loved to be involved in this year's Royal Rumble and have recreated this moment with Victoria.
Brie – "When I saw Victoria come out, I was so excited. I feel because you and I debuted with her. She took such good care of us and in our first storyline, she was such a game player. Here we were two girls she didn't have to put over or help out and she helped you and I out so much. And to see Victoria come out I will admit I was a little jealous, how am I not in the ring with her."
Nikki – "I know, it would have made it go full circle."
Credit: WWE
Brie – "If all of a sudden she came in and you and I were on either side of her and then she took us out."
Nikki – "If we came up underneath the ring and it gave her flashbacks. Dang Brie, why didn't we book this?"
Brie – "You know what though, we could still come back and do a story with Victoria. There ya go! Let's book it."
Victoria entered the Rumble match in the number 10 spot and lasted over seven minutes before being eliminated by Shayna Baszler.

«Дев'яткіно» () — кінцева станція Кіровсько-Виборзької лінії Петербурзького метрополітену. Розташована в селищі Муріно Всеволожського району  Ленінградської області. Є єдиною станцією Петербурзького метрополітену, що знаходиться поза межами міста Санкт-Петербург. Біля станції розташоване електродепо ТЧ-4 «Північне».

Історія
Станція відкрита 29 грудня 1978 року під первинною назвою «Комсомольська», на честь 60-ї річниці ВЛКСМ, в  складі дільниці «Академічна» — «Комсомольська».

1 липня 1992 року перейменована у «Дев'яткіно» відповідно до однойменної назви залізничної станції Приозерського напрямку, через яку прямують електропоїзди з Фінляндського вокзалу.

Технічна характеристика
Конструкція станції — крита наземна з бічними платформами. Суміщена з платформою приміських електропоїздів.

Вестибюлі і пересадки
Спочатку станція відкрита з двома наземними вестибюлями, причому один з них працював за особливим розкладом: лише в влітку, проте в середині 1990-х років він був закритий у зв'язку з розмивом. Також раніше працював надземний перехід з однієї платформи на іншу (станом на середину 2010-х років був закритий).

Зі станції є виходи у селище Муріно Всеволожського району Ленінградської області, до залізничної станції Дев'яткіно.

На станції, вперше у Петербурзькому метрополітені, була облаштована кросплатформова пересадка між метро та залізницею. Платформи розділені стінами станції та турнікетами. Вихід у місто з кросплатформового вузла здійснюється через підземні пішохідні переходи.

Оздоблення
До квітня 2009 року на стінах станції були встановлені великі скляні вітражі. Станом на середину 2010-х років вони замінені на цегляну кладку, вікна залишені лише під стелею. Склепіння перонного залу виконано з армоцементних збірних елементів і підтримується рідко поставленими опорами. Підлога викладена декоративною плиткою світло-жовтого відтінку.

На момент відкриття на станції було люмінесцентне освітлення, згодом замінене на ртутне.

Колійний розвиток
Станція з колійним розвитком — 4 стрілочних переводи, перехресний з'їзд, дві станційні колії для обороту та відстою рухомого складу, що переходять в двоколійну ССГ з електродепо ТЧ-4 «Північне».

Перегін до електродепо є підземним: після наземної станції колії метро знову спускаються під землю і потім знову, вже в депо, виходять на поверхню.

There are many reasons why photographers from Henrí Cartier-Bresson to Robert Frank, Stanley Kubrick and the kid next door try their hand at film making — and why so few stuck with it. One of those may be the same reason some filmmakers choose photography instead (who knows, maybe even Oskar Barnack, inventor of the Leica and amateur filmmaker himself): filmmaking is MUCH more complicated than photography - and a LOT more work.
But the digital era and the rise of YouTube have profoundly altered the equation; the rewards of making motion pictures are extraordinary; and photographers have a head start on everyone else.
If you've been thinking about becoming a YouTuber, this course is for you.
You'll learn about camera and lens selection for video; resolution and frame rates; audio; lighting; dynamic camera movement (especially gimbals); b-roll; scripting; being in front of the camera instead of behind it; working with a second shooter; basic video editing; music selection; publishing schedules; how to leverage social media; the economics of YouTubing — and finding your unique voice and "tribe" in an ever-more crowded space.
This may read as overwhelming, but the goal is to keep it simple; cut through the choices by virtue of our own scar tissue; and ensure you've got a solid starting point, up and running by workshop's end.
Join us for two (and a 1/4!) days in New York City where you will actually shoot, edit and post your video on YouTube — and in the process learn a pile, meet nice people - and have fun.
Hugh is a writer, photographer, filmmaker and YouTuber. With his wife Claudia he produces the YouTube channel Three Blind Men & An Elephant (over 300 videos on gear plus conversations with people like legendary Magnum photographer Elliott Erwitt; Director of the Henrí Cartier-Bresson Foundation Agnès Sire; ICP Executive Director Mark Lubell; Blackmagic Americas President Dan May; Cooke Optics Chairman Les Zellan; Etheleen Staley, co-founder of Staley-Wise Gallery, and many others). He and Claudia have written, shot, directed, and produced all 20+ webisodes of the Mariner East documentary series, an official selection of the 2019 Media Film Festival.
Hugh fell in love with photography the moment he held a Kodachrome slide up to the light for the very first time. He was 7. He built his first darkroom by the age of 12. Worked in a camera store by the age of 14. Ran the photography program at a summer camp in Maine by the age of 16. Taught a section in Cornell University's Psychology department entitled "The Interface between Psychology and Photography" by the time he was 21.
But after he wrote, shot, directed, and produced a stinker of a first film at the age of 14 with friends and family, he promptly shelved any filmmaking ambition for more than 40 years (the male lead, however, wound up going to film school and debuting his own wonderful feature length documentary at Tribeca in 2014).
Which may explain why Hugh's path into adulthood had nothing to do with any of that, side-tracking instead into the world of corporations and start-ups.
Fortunate enough to retire early, he rediscovered the joys of photography, and filmmaking once he got his hands on a Canon 5D Mark II (he's also an optioned screenwriter) - and embraced the power of YouTube.
Claudia is the other half of the husband and wife team that is Three Blind Men & An Elephant. She's a photographer, gimbal operator, camera operator, audio tech, location scout, and often the co-director or co-producer of Three Blind Men & An Elephant productions. And that's in her spare time. She holds the record for lone gimbal operator walking backwards through the lower East Side of New York (40 minutes) as well as the record for continuous recording of a Photokina interview hand-held without moving (11 minutes).
May 27-29, 2019 - we'll start at 3:00pm on the 27th in order to hit the ground running on the 28th. We'll start at 9:00am and end at 5:00pm on the 28th and 29th.
We are once again incredibly fortunate to have the support of Hasselblad and the use of their New York Experience Studio in NoHo, Manhattan.
Space is very limited in order to provide one-on-one instruction and feedback. Booking travel ahead of time is usually more economical, so we encourage you to sign up early.
Thanks to citizenM Bowery (our go-to hotel when we want to be in Manhattan proper — and walking distance to Hasselblad) attendees are entitled to a 15% discount - just email us once you've signed up, and we'll send you the link to use when booking through their web site!
Thanks to Pod Brooklyn (our go-to when we want to be in Brooklyn) attendees are entitled to a 5% discount - again, just email us once you've signed up, and we'll send you the code to use when booking through THEIR web site.
Attendees should have a basic knowledge of photography; a camera capable of video capture (a smartphone will do!); a laptop or tablet capable of editing video; and an idea for a video no more than four minutes long in final form. While all brands of cameras, computers, and software are welcome, we will be demonstrating with Final Cut Pro X on an Apple MacBook Pro and Lumafusion on an Apple iPad Pro.
If you need help selecting gear and software ahead of your arrival, we'll be happy to work with you to make that happen once you've sign up.
Group dinner May 21st is on us.
NB: once you click "ADD TO CART" your cart will appear in the upper right portion of this page. Click on it to complete check-out.


Make sure to select appliances that reflect how you use your kitchen and the size and layout of the room. So, if your always the host in your group of friends, a large oven and fridge might be a priority. Or if you enjoy cooking you want to make sure the sink isn't on the opposite side of the room from your stove.
You want to make sure your lighting in your kitchen is well planned out. Strategically placed pot lights, under cabinetry lighting, and decorative fixtures create a lighting scheme that adds both depth and practicality to your space.
Just like accessories can transform an outfit, kitchen fixtures can transform a kitchen. Think, a standard cabinet accompanied by beautiful handles, and a basic sink paired with a well chosen faucet.
Also, fixtures in your kitchen are going to be used a lot, so you want to make sure to invest in quality to ensure they're strong, durable and maintain the integrity of appearance as long as possible.
With trips from the couch to the fridge or pantry, the kitchen floor is a high traffic area. There are many different surfaces you can choose from; our favorite in a kitchen is tile or hardwood. Whether you choose a classic design to compliment the rest of your home or a brave patterned floor for a stunning statement piece, flooring in your kitchen is key!
Your back splash can completely transform the look of your kitchen. Originally the main function of back splashes was to protect your walls, but now it is a great opportunity to get creative in your kitchen.
At Gibson, we've been playing around with back splashes, including: clerestory windows (windows replace back splash) to glass back splashes for a more modern look to patterned tiles to add texture.
What is a must have in your kitchen?

The Premier of Quebec (French: Premier ministre du Québec (masculine) or Première ministre du Québec (feminine)) is the head of government of the Canadian province of Quebec. The current Premier of Quebec is Philippe Couillard of the Quebec Liberal Party, sworn in on April 23, 2014 following the 2014 election.
1 Selection and qualifications
Selection and qualifications
The Premier of Quebec is appointed as president of the Executive Council by the Lieutenant Governor of Quebec, the viceregal representative of the Queen in Right of Quebec. The Premier is most usually the head of the party winning the most seats in the National Assembly of Quebec, and is normally a sitting member of the National Assembly. An exception to this rule occurs when the winning party's leader fails to win the riding in which he or she is running. In that case, the premier would have to attain a seat by winning a by-election. This has happened, for example, to Robert Bourassa in 1985.
The role of the Premier of Quebec is to set the legislative priorities on the opening speech of the National Assembly. He or she represents the leading party and must have the confidence of the assembly, as expressed by votes on budgets and other matters considered as confidence votes.
The term "premier" is used in English, while French employs "premier ministre", which translates directly to "prime minister". In at least one instance, the term "Prime Minister of the Province of Quebec" was used in an English-language advertisement.[3] The term is also used for the Podium Ceremony of the annual Formula One Grand Prix du Canada in Montreal.

The Premiers of Quebec are chosen according to the principle of responsible government. This principle is a matter of constitutional convention, since the Constitution Act, 1867 does not mention it.

So i was watching the stream yesterday for the Extinction release and started thinking about the Kibble system. I'm not sure if this was already mentioned, if it was oh well.
So dinosaurs being egg layers that they are would have nests. Why not make static spawn points for all dinos who lay eggs to have a nest spawn point with guaranteed unfertilized eggs in them?
Examples would be, argies and ptero's have nests on mountains. Raptors have nests in the brush and so on. I know this would be a little less ideal for ppl to have to leave their bases to get eggs. But if you make the nests a 100% drop and quick respawn it would solve the problems. It could possibly take away from the immersion of the game but at this point i think its better to fix a broken system and lose a little immersion over mass lag and server caps.
Also to add onto this. For these nests you dont need to have a parent of the egg guarding it since this is merely a resource node. If a dino has a general spawn point just put that nest in the same general spawn location just make it static so that its not a egg hunt for it.
I would say have it guarded so to speak. only a basic one but something there all the same.
a bit like beaver dams would work in my opinion. would dismiss the need to hoard loads of dinos.
Ehhh you're still going to have tribes that hoarde dinos for the convenience of it. I like the idea though I don't think it'd work on official x1 rates though. Having to steal 50+ eggs from a quetz nest to tame a gigantic would be a paaaaain.
I would aggree, but how hard would it be to put a set number of eggs in the nest at any give time. Like just say depending on the size of the dino. So a argy would have multiple eggs in the nest at one time where a bronto would only have 1. And like i said just increase the repawn timer. Gathering 50 eggs of any kind should take some time maybe not weeks or even days but lets be honest if you know there are nests that always have eggs in them i would hit them up every chance i get. So my stockpile of eggs would be abundant anyway. As far as ppl just hoarding dino's that is another problem that will never go away. Especially when you have ppl that collect dinos for colors and treat them as trophies for others to see.
Especially when you have ppl that collect dinos for colors and treat them as trophies for others to see.
Omfg those people who collect colored dinos are my tribemates. I dread new color events and the 20 new "special color" dinos that occupy space around base after they go out on a taming spree. I'm for ANY solution that aims to fix this dino hoarding behaviour.
I like this idea! Maybe the nests would be harvestable by an oviraptor for extra eggs. And yes they should be "paired" with the animals the same way wyverns are. An egg and an animal would spawn together, and stealing them by hand would agro them, but not with an ovi.

Male prisoners are housed in a gymnasium in California's Chino State Prison last December. The state is under federal order to reduce prison crowding.
California may send thousands of female prisoners home
Thousands of women inmates from California prisons could soon be released to be reunited with their families under a program the state began implementing on Monday.
The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation said offenders whose crimes were nonviolent, nonserious and not sexual, with less than two years remaining on their sentences, are eligible for the Alternative Custody Program, which was signed into law in 2010 by then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.
"Approximately two-thirds of CDCR's female inmates are mothers whose children are either with relatives or are in foster care," CDCR Secretary Matthew Cate said in a press release. "ACP is a step in breaking the intergenerational cycle of incarceration, as family involvement is one of the biggest indicators of an inmate's rehabilitation."
About 45% of the state's 10,000 female inmates may be eligible for the program, the CDCR said. It may be made available to male inmates in the future, the department said.
Those admitted to the program will wear electronic monitors and be supervised by a parole agent, the CDCR said. They can serve their remaining time at home or in a residential substance-abuse or transitional-care facility, according to the agency.
The prisoners will be allowed to find jobs or attend classes during their release, the department said.
The state of California should save about $6 million a year under the program, the CDCR estimated.
California is under federal pressure to reduce inmate populations. The Supreme Court this summer upheld a lower court ruling that medical and mental health care for inmates in the state prison system falls below the level required by the Constitution.
Gov. Jerry Brown signed into law in April a plan to reduce prison crowding by moving 33,000 low-level offenders to county jails. But the state is cash-strapped, and funding for that plan, estimated at $460 million in the first year, must be approved by voters in November.
California has the nation's largest prison system.

If it's such a minor nonviolent crime why are they in prison in the first place? Just flog them in public a couple times and move on.

Agreed! or make do 250 laps around a large track facility
More than that...put them on the chain gang and instill hard labor. Make it not so cushy so they would not want to ever return to prison.
El Duderino (if you're not into the whole brevity thing)
I support flogging as well. California spends nearly $45,000 per annum for every inmate. Flogging can be done for free.

You know what's funny? Article aside, the picture at the top looks EXACTLY like how we were 'housed' while were at Naval Base Ventura and at Ft. Bliss while were training to go to Iraq! LOL! Good times!
I love this picture its clearly the middle of the day and they are all laying around! They should be out breaking rocks (or building new prisons!)
Um – How come it's just the women? WHy not men too? (By the way I am a woman writing this)
mask2697
the male and female prisoners are sent to different prisons for obvious reasons, so the program is for the female prisons, this may go for male prisons to, there are no mixed gender prisons in America...
I get that it is only offered to the female prisons and that there are no co-ed prisons. But WHY is it only offered to the female prisons. I have seen posts on here saying what if these were your mothers, daughters, sisters... well what about the fathers, sons and brothers??

send all the prisoners to work in iraq and afghanistan
How can such a policy be so discriminatory towards men? Could they not find one or two men who would qualify under these policy provisions? Are not familial ties for men significant in their rehabilitation efforts or recidivism rates too?

WAYS TO REDUCE PRISON POPULATION/OVERCROWDING:
WAYS TO REDUCE PRISON OVERCROWDING: Make it an UNPLEASANT place to live: no cable, no internet, no phone use, only TV is to watch teaching/inspirational/educational videos, only books are learning/inspirational, doing a constructive job to help public good to earn early release time, BASIC nutritional meal w/ very little variety, more isolation time, smaller private cells. PLUS this would bring down the cost of housing these lawbreakers. It costs more to keep them in jail than on welfare. Make jail a bad place to be!!! Now it's nicer than most of the poor's home life. And the poor get poorer because we're spending more money punishing than helping people.

just have to say the two things i hate when i go out to eat is when our waiter or waitress doesnt hang us the food and when the soda doesnt taste the way it should. those are my pet peeves what are some of your?
BenBreeg
Yo can't call it other way than discrimination. Why only females? There is no non-violent male criminals who are fathers?
Ape Lincoln
It is so easy to judge someone who in your eye's, and the self giving riotous power to say these women belong in jail. Please they are not criminals and should have never been locked up in the first place.
If you commited a crime....that makes you a criminal......just saying
Floggins sounds good.......televised battles to the death could work...........deportation sounds fun..........replacing animals in testing labs could be an option..............airdropping them into other countries would be a way to get rid of them.
We are talking Prison not the Ramada Inn! Create a Prison that makes since. A place that is unlivable, basic, and plenty of work to be done. A place where people get out they would die before they go back. No doctors, nurses, and the only food to be had is what they grow. ZERO cost type Prison, that actually brings in money to the state.
Yakity yak, don't come back!

Hey i agree that when a person commits a crime they should pay – hence Al-Qaeda has every right in the world to come back at the usa for a PART II punishment for committing crimes against the muslim world.. right?? 🙂
You say flog em.... we say burn their towers and watch them fall like rice crispies!!! Usa sucks and you guys know it.

As we continue through the summer, we are rolling through the scenes from Jesus' ministry. Healings, exorcisms, forgiveness, parables and more. Last week Jesus challenged the young lawyer's views on what it means to be saved and who our neighbours are, by telling the story of the Good Samaritan. The Good Samaritan whom we found out is not someone we are supposed to be, but who God is. The one who comes to find us and rescue us from the ditch.
Today, we take a break from ministry and work. Instead, Jesus goes to dinner. Dinner with his friends, Mary and Martha. These two sisters have have become icons and symbols of hardwork, effort and busyness on the one hand and reflection, attentiveness and faithfulness on the other.
Mary and Martha can become two of the ways we categorize and label each other in the church. This week, church members from congregations across the interlake gathered together in Arborg to talk about ways that we can work together in the midst of declining membership and resources. The leader of the meeting began with a short bible study on Mary and Martha. We were asked to self identify as either one or the other. Martha was understood to the be do-ers of the congregation. The ones ushering, folding bulletins, pounding in loose nails, planting flowers, making coffee, keeping things neat, tidy and clean.
But Mary… well, Mary was a little harder to define. But we assumed Mary was understood to the be the ones interested in faith, in learning, thinking, praying. The ones at bible study, looking for books on spirituality, asking questions about faith.
Once all the hands had been raised, there were a lot more self-identified Marthas than Marys.
I wonder why that is in the church?
There is something universal about these two women aren't there? It is easy to see ourselves in either or even both. Yet, the way this story is told, there are two opposing approaches to hospitality, to faith, to being in community.
But two things about the story of Mary and Martha has always bothered me.
The first is that Martha seems to get an unnecessarily bum rap from Jesus. Sure she is frantic and whining when she could take it a bit easier. But Jesus seems to have no sympathy.
The second is that despite Jesus' emphasis on the value of Mary's choice to slow down and listen, we tend to value Martha's work ethic above Mary's desire to learn and grow.
And I will confess, for a long time, I didn't know what to do with this story… particularly, Jesus' apparent scolding of Martha.
But then just a few weeks ago, I read something that put this story in a new light.
Jesus' issue with Martha is not her work ethic or busyness. While he does say that Mary's desire to learn and grow in faith is good and important and something to value. Jesus is setting a boundary with Martha. A boundary about being drawn into her conflict with her sister. When Jesus's pushes back against Martha's request, is not because he is judging her choice of activity. Jesus is refusing to be drawn into a conflict between two others. If Martha has a problem with her sister Mary, she should take it to Mary directly. Jesus is refusing to be triangulated.
Usually, the good news sounds like Jesus healing, forgiving, exorcizing demons, raising to life, rescuing us from the ditch of sin and death. Yet, while it may sound odd, Jesus setting a boundary is good news too. Jesus refusing to be triangulated is good news too.
When Jesus sets a boundary refusing to be drawn into our drama, it means that God is free from the burdens our of conflict, the burdens of our sins, the burdens of our suffering. God is free to let go and forgive. God can act to take hold of us and care for us. God can respond in a way that we need, rather than the one we want.
When Jesus refuses to be triangulated, it means that God will not be distant from us, that God makes no obstacles for our salvation, that God does not operate through intermediaries. Rather God deals directly with us. God does not talk about our salvation with someone else, but deals directly with us.
When Jesus refuses to get involved with Martha and Mary's issue today, Jesus is showing us something much more important about how God deals with us. And that is directly.
God speaks to us directly through God's word.
God washes us directly in the waters of baptism.
God feeds us directly in the bread and wine of the Lord's supper.
God saves us directly, not through works or laws or prayers or righteousness.
When God saves us, God just saves us.
Today, we might wonder if we are Marys or Marthas, we might feel like both.
But there is no question about how Jesus deals with us. Directly.
To begin with a moment of honest confession: with baby number 2 two arriving on Wednesday, I had planned to lessen my preparation load this past week by preaching a sermon that I wrote 6 years ago on this passage of the Good Samaritan. It was a good sermon that challenged the ways in which we look at just what the story of the Good Samaritan is about.
It was a good plan and a good sermon.
But then guns, and racism, and violence and death broke out.
Then Cyril Weenusk, a visitor to Winnipeg coming to bring his father to the hospital, was beaten to death in downtown Winnipeg for no apparent reason.
Then Alton Sterling, an unarmed black man was pinned to the ground under two police officers and then shot and killed in Louisiana.
Then another black man, Philando Castile, was shot and killed by a cop in front of his girlfriend and her 4 year old daughter, during a routine traffic stop.
And then 5 police officers were shot and killed in Dallas during a protest of the violence, by a troubled man upset by the state of race relations in the United States.
And then all of a sudden, it was impossible to hear this parable of the Good Samaritan, a parable about violence, about race relations, about the debate between #SamaritanLivesMatter and #AllLivesMatter, about what it means to truly be a good neighbour, and not to think about the events of this week.
In fact, the parable of the Good Samaritan has already been told to us in many different ways this week, and the questions it raised in Jesus' day, continue to be raised in our world.
A young man, a religious lawyer or expert in religious law is having a conversation with Jesus about what it means to be saved, and when Jesus tells him to love his neighbour as himself, the man wants to confuse and blur the lines of the issue, "Who is my neighbour?" he asks.
Jesus responds with a parable about a man taking the dangerous journey from Jericho to Jerusalem – a rocky, downhill road that requires a traveller to leave the safety of Jewish territory. It is an ideal place for bandits, and along the way, the man is beaten, robbed and left half-dead.
And then a temple priest passes by the man. The priest is not heartless, but rather makes a considered ethical choice. He chooses the good of the many over the good of one. If he defiles himself to save this one half-dead man, he will be unclean for 7 days an unable to help scores of people obtain forgives in the temple.
And then a Levite passed by the man. He too is not heartless, but rather makes the same considered ethical choice, as he too is a servant of the greater good.
But then a Samaritan comes along. The Samaritan is a heretical jew, because he worships God in the wrong place. And he would not be concerned with ritual purity, because Samaritans were considered unclean anyways. Yet, despite the bad blood between Samaritans and Jews, the Samaritan stops to help. He goes the extra mile and makes sure the half-dead man is taken care of by an innkeeper.
The story is meant to challenge ideas around who is our neighbour, but also the systems that lay at the foundation of our society. This parable isn't about telling us to be Good Samaritans, and telling us not to be priests and levites. The parable questions the assumptions and ethics that are buried deep within our society.
As police officers encountered Alton Sterling and Philando Castile, it wasn't a heartless merciless instinct that led them to shoot these two men. Rather it was something worse. It was an ethical framework that told them it was not even worth ten seconds of second thought before shooting. It is the ingrained belief that allowing for even the question to hang in the air about whether a black man may or may not be dangerous is simply not worth it. The police officers made the same decision that the priest and levite made. It is better for the half-person before them to die, than to risk their ability to serve.
As a gunman in Dallas decided that he wanted white people and police officers to die, he was suffering from the same ethical framework embedded in our world. He was suffering under the idea that somehow some lives were more valuable than his, that it was okay for him to try and inflict as much damage as possible to even some kind of score. That his half-personhood was worth a certain and violent end in order to get as many full persons a possible.
The tragic reality of the parable of the Good Samaritan is that it is not the moral lesson we usually think it to be. Instead, it is a mirror that we can hold up to see the broken state of the world. There are bandits who would rob and beat a traveller on the road to Jericho, there are bandits who would kill a traveler on his way with his father to a hospital in Winnipeg. There are important privileged people who are compelled to walk by the suffering of others for the sake of the greater good, those who under a banner that says all lives matter, easily impose a hierarchy valuing some lives more than others in the name of good social order. And in the world of police shooter and vengeful snipers, being a Good Samaritan is maintaining the status quo and systems that oppress some and privilege others.
But the grace-filled reality of the parable of the Good Samaritan is that it is not the moral lesson that we usually think it to be. Instead, it is a lens that we can hold up to see God's action in the world. There is God who comes along to rescue and save a half-dead traveller in the ditch, there is God who says that random, senseless violence does not define us. There is the God of all power and might, who gives it up to come and find us in the ditch, and who doesn't make distinctions between greater and lesser good. The Good Samaritan is not who we should aspire to be, but who God is.
We can never be the Good Samaritan. God is always the Good Samaritan.
"Humanity" was going down from "The Holy City" into "the night", and fell into the hands of robbers or racist cops or vengeful gunmen, "into the hands of Sin and Death" who stripped "Humanity", beat humanity, and went away, leaving humanity half dead. Now by chance "Power" was going down that road; and when he saw "Humanity, "Power" passed by on the other side. So likewise "Privilege", when he came to the place and saw "Humanity" passed by on the other side. But "the Grace and Mercy of God" while traveling came near "to Humanity"; and when "Grace and Mercy" saw humanity, "she" was moved with pity. "Grace and Mercy" went to humanity and bandaged humanity's wounds, having poured oil and wine on them. Then "Grace and Mercy" put humanity on "her" own animal, brought humanity to an inn, and took care of humankind. The next day "she" took out two denarii (silver coins), gave them to the innkeeper, and said, `Take care of "humanity"; and when I come back, I will repay you whatever more you spend.
The parable of the Good Samaritan is not a moral lesson on good works, but a description of the injustice, suffering, sin and death that seem to control our world, that seem to control us. When the news tells us of sense violence and death, of the sins of racism and injustice, of revenge and tragedy, we can see ourselves in the man beaten and left to die.
But ultimately, the parable shows us how God comes into our broken world, with mercy and grace. And what God does in our world, only God can. God rescues us from the tragedy of random violence and suffering. God meets us where power and privilege can never go. And God finds us in the ditches of sin and death to bring us into healing, and new life.

Skryté Stříbro! (Hidden Silver!)
Posted on May 22, 2019 by Liz Broadwell
Title leaf of Voigt's Beschreibung der bisher bekannten Böhmischen Münzen Bd. 2 (1772)
Most people have hidden a little cash in a book at one time or another, and librarians are never surprised to encounter examples of things tucked into books about them, like dried plants pressed in herbals. That said, I wasn't expecting to find medieval coins laid into an eighteenth-century numismatic handbook, but that's exactly what happened when I paged through the Kislak Center's copy of the second volume of Mikuláš Voigt's Beschreibung der bisher bekannten Böhmischen Münzen nach chronologischer Ordnung (Prague: Gerlische Buchhandlung, 1771-1787). The Piarist Voigt (1733-1787) was a pioneering Czech numismatist who studied the Podmokelský poklad—a hoard of Celtic rainbow cups buried in a bronze cauldron and unearthed by a farmer at Podmokly in western Bohemia in 1771—as well as writing this inventory of then-known Bohemian specie. A previous (unidentified, alas, but possibly 20th-century) owner of our copy of volume 2 laid in four small envelopes containing two thirteenth-, one fourteenth-, and two fifteenth-century coins next to the engraved illustrations depicting them.
Left: Silver bracteate of Ottokar II found in Voigt's Beschreibung der Böhmischen Münzen. Right: Engraving of silver bracteate of Ottokar II from Voigt's Beschreibung der Böhmischen Münzen, Bd. 2, p. 63.
The oldest and most fragile of the five coins is a silver bracteate produced under Ottokar II, who ruled Bohemia from 1253 until his 1278 death in battle against Rudolf I, King of the Romans (whose throne he coveted). Bracteates were a common German penny from the twelfth to the fifteenth centuries; minted for local circulation, these very thin, one-sided coins feature a repoussé image on the obverse. The device on our example, according to Voigt, is "[d]er böhmische gekrönte Löwe mit doppeltem Schweife; auf der Brust das österreichische Wappen" [the Bohemian crowned lion with double tail; on its breast the Austrian coat of arms] (p. 63).
The remaining coins are four Prague groschens, an innovation of the mints of Ottokar's successor Václav II (reigned 1278-1305). This very popular silver coin was struck from the 14th to the mid-16th century, always with the same design: on the obverse, a central crown surrounded by two legends, the inner containing the current ruler's name and the outer the motto DEI GRATIA REX BOEMIE ("By the grace of God the King of Bohemia"); on the reverse, the Bohemian lion rampant surrounded by the legend GROSSI PRAGENSES. One of these groschens, much rubbed and clipped, is identified on its enclosure as having been minted under Vaclav II himself. The outer legend is almost completely wanting on both sides and only the beginning of king's name—WENCE[…] for WENCEZLAVS SECVNDVS—is visible on the obverse around outline of crown. A good imagination is required to fill in the missing portions of the double-tailed lion's anatomy on the reverse.
Top left: Obverse of Prague groschen of Václav II found in Voigt's Beschreibung der Böhmische Münzen. Top right: Reverse of the same. Below: Engraving of Prague groschen of Václav II from Voigt's Beschreibung der Böhmische Münzen, Bd. 2, p. 83.
Another groschen, minted during the reign of blind king Jan Lucemburský (1310-1346)—who also perished in battle after insisting that he be led forward to strike a blow against the enemy at Crécy—is likewise worn and clipped, but much less severely. The outer legends on both sides of the coin are largely intact; most of the king's name (IOHAN[…]ES PRIMV[…] for IOHANNES PRIMVS) is visible, though the crown on the obverse and lion's torso on the reverse are indistinct. Its enclosure is stamped in red with the name and address of the Czech coin dealer Karel Chaura (1869-1945), suggesting that this groschen was purchased from his shop in Prague.
Top left: Obverse of Prague groschen of Jan Lucemburský found in Voigt's Beschreibung der Böhmische Münzen. Top right: Reverse of the same. Below: Engraving of Prague groschen of Jan Lucemburský from Voigt's Beschreibung der Böhmische Münzen, Bd. 2, p. 107.
The remaining two groschens were minted during the reign of Utraquist Hussite Jiří z Poděbrad (1458-1471), an early champion of a union of European states. Both coins are rather rubbed and one slightly clipped. On each the crown is partially visible, but the lions (except for their double tails) are predominantly effaced. Though present, the outer legends are very difficult to read; as for the inner legend, the coins complement each other with the GEORGIVS of GEORGIVS PRIMVS legible on one and the PRIMVS on the other.
Top left: Obverse of Prague groschen of Jiří z Poděbrad found in Voigt's Beschreibung der Böhmische Münzen. Top right: Reverse of the same. Below: Engraving of Prague groschen of Jiří z Poděbrad from Voigt's Beschreibung der Böhmische Münzen, Bd. 2, p. 261.
Legend has it that the inhabitants of Podmokly mistook the thousands of gold coins they found for brass buttons. History records that those coins were confiscated by Karl Egon, Fürst zu Fürstenberg (1729-1786 or 1787), Podmokly's overlord, who melted most of them down to mint his own ducats. This much smaller treasure has been spared both misidentification and destruction, to the benefit of Penn's (and the world's!) numismatists and historians.

20 years of CSI: How crime scene investigators get their man
By: Jeremy Tanner , Mary Murphy
(New York) Twenty years ago–on February 26th, 1993–a truck bomb blew up in the parking garage of World Trade Center # 1, killing six, terrorizing thousands of others, and leaving behind a huge crater six stories deep. FBI agents and NYPD bomb experts descended on the scene–and recovered the undercarriage of a Ryder rental truck, complete with a vehicle identification number.
Within a week, the FBI made four arrests in the bombing, after tracing the Ryder truck to a rental office in Jersey City. That's where accused terrorist, Mohammed Salameh, had gone back to pick up his deposit money!
The undercarriage was a huge piece of evidence in the 1993 bombing, just like the surveillance footage from a sidewalk in Boston promises to lead investigators to two men wanted in connection with Monday's deadly Marathon explosions.
John Cutter, a retired NYPD deputy chief who helped create the Criminal Intelligence section, noted "Any time you can capture footage from the scene before it happens–and then after it happens–you can get a myriad of clues."
The FBI has been reconstructing crime scenes for many years–and did a massive "re-building" of TWA Flight 800 in 1996.
Cutter pointed out how crucial "closed circuit" television footage proved to be in London, in July 2005. Four "suicide bombers" with backpacks were ultimately picked up on surveillance, entering an "underground" station. Three of them detonated bombs on the trains, while the fourth set off a bomb on a "double decker " bus. More than 50 people were killed and 700-plus injured.
Now, in 2013, two men of interest have been isolated on multiple cameras, wanted for questioning in the Boston Marathon blasts. One of them is wearing a black hat and the other is wearing white; both carry backpacks. The suspect in white lays down the second backpack, seconds before the bag explodes.
Boston investigators are already reconstructing the bombs, sending the remains of a pressure cooker and the battery to the FBI lab in Quantico, Virginia.
The FBI has been reconstructing crime scenes for many years–and did a massive "re-building" of TWA Flight 800 in 1996. The jet exploded and crashed twelve minutes after take-off in July of that year, off the coast of East Moriches, Long Island. But no crime was ever proven. The National Transportation Safety Board ruled four years later the explosion was likely an accident, caused by an over-heating of the TWA jet's central fuel tank.
