 A few supergravity solutions representing
configurations of NS5-branes admit exact conformal
field theory (CFT) description. Deformations of these solutions should be
described by exactly marginal operators of the corresponding theories. We
briefly review the essentials of these constructions and present, as
a new case, the operators responsible for turning on angular
momentum.

\section{Introduction: NS5-branes and basic CFTs}

Branes were involved in the most important developments in string theory,
from a deeper understanding of the theory itself,
to black hole physics and the AdS/CFT correspondence.
In string theory it is possible, in some rare occasions, to go beyond the supergravity approximation
and obtain an exact CFT description of the solutions of interest.
In particular,
among the plethora of the various brane configurations a tiny subset
involving exclusively NS5 or NS1 and NS5-branes admit, under certain
circumstances, such a description.

\noindent
Consider $k$ parallel NS5-branes, spread out in the transverse $R^4$ with density $\rho(\bf x)$
normalized to unity. The half-supersymmetric preserving solitonic solution has metric
given by \cite{duff}
\begin{eqnarray}
ds^2 =  \underbrace{\eta_{\mu \nu} dy^\mu dy^\nu}_{ \rm 6-dim\ flat} \quad
+  \underbrace{H ({\bf x} ) \ \delta_{ij}
dx^i dx^j}_{\rm 4\!-\!dim\ non-trivial\ part}\ ,\qquad
H({\bf x}) = 1+ \alpha' k \int_{R^4} d^4 x'
\frac{\rho({\bf x'})}{|{\bf x}-{\bf x'}|^2}\ ,
\end{eqnarray}
where $H$ is a harmonic function in $R^4$. It is supported by
a NS three-form and a dilaton
\begin{eqnarray}
H_{ijk}=\epsilon_{ijk}^{\phantom{ijk}l} \partial_l H\ ,\qquad e^{2 (\Phi-\Phi_0) }=H \ .
\end{eqnarray}
Indices are raised and lowered with the flat metric of
$R^4$ and $e^{\Phi_0}=g_s$ is the asymptotic string coupling.

\noindent
\underline{Branes at a point \cite{CHS}:}
In this case and in the near horizon limit (1 dropped in $H$) the background is
\begin{eqnarray}
ds^2 = \eta_{\mu \nu} dy^\mu dy^\nu + d\phi^2 + 2 k d\Omega_3^2\ ,\qquad H= 2 {\rm Vol}_{S^3}\ ,\qquad
\Phi = -{q\over 2}\ \phi\ ,
\label{jk9}
\end{eqnarray}
where, for the radial distance, we let
$r = \sqrt{2 k} e^{\Phi_0 + \phi/\sqrt{2 k}}$ ($\alpha'=2$) and also $q=\sqrt{2\over k}$.
This will be the geometry of every localized NS5-brane distribution far from it.
The above background corresponds to the exact CFT with ${\cal N} = 4$ worldsheet supersymmetry
\begin{eqnarray}
R^{5,1} \times R_\phi \times SU(2)_k\ ,
\label{linee}
\end{eqnarray}
where $R_\phi$ is the  linear dilaton factor with background charge $q$.

\noindent
\underline{Branes on a circle \cite{sfecircle}:}
When the branes are located at the corners of a canonical $k$-polygone,
the exact ${\cal N} = 4$ supersymmetric CFT, in the near horizon limit, is
\begin{eqnarray}
R^{5,1} \times {SU(2)_k\over U(1)} \times {SL(2,R)_{-k}\over U(1)}\ ,
\label{dhi1}
\end{eqnarray}
orbifolded under a discrete $Z_k$ symmetry whose geometric origin
is the rotation symmetry of the canonical $k$-polygone. In the continuum
limit the distribution is over the circumference of a circle.

\noindent
The question we have addressed in a series of papers is how, mainly, world-volume
preserving deformations of the above solutions,
can be described by exact operators of the corresponding CFTs.
This approach was initiated for the CFT (\ref{dhi1}) in
\cite{petrosfe1}, by describing the bosonic content of the perturbation that deforms the circular
distribution into an ellipsoidal one and
perfected in its full technical and conceptual details in \cite{FPPS}
by including the fermionic part of the deformation as well as arbitrary deformations.
In \cite{PreSfe} all possible deformations of the solution (\ref{jk9})
starting form the CFT in (\ref{linee}) were classified.
We refer, to these works for the details of the construction that we present below in section 2.
Finally, we have considered deformations based on the
CFT $SL(2,R) \times SU(2) \times U(1)^4$ arising in the near-horizon limit
of a system of NS5-branes wrapped on a 4-torus and NS1-branes smeared
completely on the 4-torus \cite{PPS}.

\section{Deforming the solutions with exact CFT operators}

In the NS5's worldvolume there is the so called little string theory (LST) \cite{Aharony:1998ub}. It is obtained in the
$g_s\to 0$ limit and therefore is non-gravitational.
It can be considered as a UV completion of a six-dimensional gauge theory with 16 supercharges
and $g_{\rm YM}^2\sim \alpha'$, where asymptotically linear dilaton backgrounds
provide holographic duals.
We will address the following issues: (i) what are the operators of the exact CFTs
responsible for deforming the supergravity solutions mentioned above and (ii) what is their holographic interpretation
in terms of the LST.
We focus on cases where the deformation affects only the distribution of the
NS5-branes in the transverse space,
thus preserving Lorentz symmetry in their worldvolume.

\noindent
\underline{Spreading the branes out of the point:} We present a brief summary of the analysis
of \cite{PreSfe} where the interested reader can find all details.
Consider the operators $\widetilde {\rm  tr} (X^{i_1}X^{i_2}\cdots X^{i_{2j+2}})$, with $i_\ell=1,2,3,4$\ ,
where the $SO(4)$ scalars $X^i$ are $k\times k$ traceless matrices,
in the adjoint of $SU(k)$.
In order for the LST operators to be
in a short multiplet of spacetime supersymmetry, only the
traceless and symmetric components in the indices $i_1,\ldots,i_{2j+2}$ should be kept.
The tilde on the trace means that we should not consider the standard single trace,
but its combination with multi-traces. This will not play any
r\^ole for our considerations.
Geometrically,
the eigenvalues of the $X^i$'s parametrize the transverse positions of the NS5's.

\noindent
The correspondence
should involve the primaries $\Phi^{\rm su}_{j;m,\bar m}$
of the bosonic $SU(2)_{k-2}$ WZW model in (\ref{linee}). These are realized,
semiclassically, in terms of the Euler angles ${\theta, \phi_1, \phi_2}$ parametrizing the $SU(2)$ group element.
In addition, it should involve the corresponding fermions $\psi_\pm$ and $\psi_3$ in the adjoint of $SU(2)$.
Finally, one may use the boson $\phi$ and the corresponding fermion $\psi_\phi$, as well as
the corresponding vertex operator $e^{-q a_j \phi}$ of the linear dilaton factor ${R}_\phi$.
The precise holographic correspondence is \cite{Aharony:2003vk,Aharony:2004xn}
\begin{eqnarray}
\overbrace{\widetilde {\rm  tr} (X^{i_1}X^{i_2}\cdots X^{i_{2j+2}})}^{\rm LST }
 \qquad  \Longleftrightarrow \qquad
{\cal V}_{j;m,\bar m}=
\overbrace{(\psi\bar \psi \Phi^{\rm su}_j)_{j+1;m,\bar m} e^{-q a_j \phi}}^{\rm CFT } \ .
\label{holodic}
\end{eqnarray}
This is justified as follows:
First notice that the scalars
transform in the $({1\over 2},{1\over 2})$ representation of $SU(2)_L\times SU(2)_R$, so that the left
hand side of this correspondence has spin $j+1$. On the right hand side the operator should have the same spin.
Using CFT operators it reads (we suppress the antiholomorphic indices)
\begin{eqnarray}
{\cal V}_{j;m}=
\left(\mu_3 \psi^3 \Phi_{j,m_3}^{\rm su} +  \mu_+ \psi^+ \Phi_{j,m_+}^{\rm su}
+  \mu_- \psi^- \Phi_{j,m_-}^{\rm su}\right)e^{-qa_j  \phi}\ .
\end{eqnarray}
In order to have spin $j+1$, the constants $\mu_{3,\pm}$ are chosen to be the
Clebsch--Gordan coefficients arising from composing a spin $j$ state (from the bosonic $SU(2)_{k-2}$)
with a spin 1 state (where the fermions belong) and $m_3=m$, $m_\pm =m\mp 1$.
In addition, the $U(1)$'s symmetries in $R^4$ (rotations on the planes $x^1\!-\!x^2$ and $x^3\!-\!x^4$)
are associated with the quantum numbers $m$ and $\bar m$.
Finally, we note that from standard CFT unitarity arguments for the $SU(2)_{k-2}$ current algebra,
the spin $j$ is bounded so that $j=0,{1\over 2},\dots ,(k-2)/2$. Hence,
the number of matrices on the left hand side is $k$, the same as the dimension of the matrices $X^i$.

\noindent
The coefficient $a_j$ of the dilaton  vertex operator on the right
must be either $a_j=j+1$ or $a_j=-j$ in order for the actual deforming operators,
constructed in (\ref{pertti}) below, to be marginal.
In the first case the operator
is normalizable and
corresponds to a situation where the
dual  LST operator acquires a vacuum expectation value (vev). In the second case it corresponds to a
non-normalizable deformation of the theory that triggers
a perturbation of the LST with the dual operator.
The ${\cal N} =1$ worldsheet preserving perturbation is
\begin{eqnarray}
\sum_{j=0}^{(k-2)/2}\sum_{m,\bar m=-(j+1)}^{j+1}
\left(\lambda_{j;m,\bar m} G_{-\frac{1}{2}}\bar G_{-\frac{1}{2}}
 (\psi\bar \psi \Phi_j^{{\rm su}})_{j+1;m,\bar m}
e^{-qa_j\phi} +{\rm c.c.} \right)\ ,
\label{pertti}
\end{eqnarray}
where $G$ is the ${\cal N}=1$ supercurrent, realized in terms of $SU(2)_{k-2}$ currents, $\phi$ and
the fermions \cite{Kounnas}. Giving vev's to the $X^i$'s, dictating the density $\rho(\textbf{x})$,
determines the coupling as
\begin{eqnarray}
\lambda_{j;m,\bar m}\sim  \widetilde {\rm tr} (X^{i_1}X^{i_2}\cdots X^{i_{2j+2}})\ .
\end{eqnarray}
The perturbation produces a purely bosonic term, and two fermionic terms, one quadratic and one
quartic. It should be cast in the form of
a supersymmetric $\sigma$-model (see, for instance, \cite{Howe}).

\noindent
To describe a deformation of the brane's position and not a flow
to a different theory, the perturbation
should preserve ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetry (and consequently spacetime supersymmetry),
but only in the normalizable
branch.\footnote{There are
non-normalizable operators
preserving ${\cal N}=4$ worldsheet supersymmetry (and spacetime),
 that do not correspond to an LST deformation, but
they perturb instead away from the NS5-brane horizon \cite{PreSfe}.}
Using the operators of ${\cal N}=4$ realized in terms of the $SU(2)_{k-2}$ currents,
$\phi$ and the fermions we find that indeed
$a_j=j+1$.
In addition,
not all values of $m$, for fixed $j$, are allowed, but
\begin{eqnarray}
m=\pm(j+1): \qquad {\cal V}_{j;\pm(j+1)}=\psi^+ \Phi^{\rm su}_{j,\pm j} e^{-q(j+1)\phi}\ ,
\end{eqnarray}
which for the upper (lower) sign are chiral (anti-chiral) primaries and have $h=\pm q/2$.
A quite important exception is the operator
$\psi_3 e^{-q \phi}$, which is primary, but not chiral (or antichiral).
Assuming that superconformal invariance remains unbroken
the perturbation (\ref{pertti}) is exactly marginal.

\noindent
Geometrically, one can summarize
the distinct cases arising in fig.~1.

and the one orthogonal to that, respectively. The

\end{figure}

\noindent
\underline{Deformation of a finite size circle:} In this case, depicted in  fig.~2, the appropriate
CFT is (\ref{dhi1}).
Now the bosonic part of the perturbation is in terms of compact parafermions
dressed with primaries of the non-compact part of the theory \cite{petrosfe1,FPPS}. The
fermions enter through the bosons we use for their bosonization. The important new feature is that
for finite $k$, there are no purely bosonic or fermionic terms. The clear semiclassical $\sigma$-model picture appears only
in the limit $k\gg 1$. All the details can be found in \cite{FPPS}.

primary operator whose spin is related to the number of modes as
$n=2(j+1)$.}
\end{figure}

\section{Turning on angular momentum with CFT operators }

The supergravity background corresponding to $k$ rotating NS5-branes was constructed in \cite{sferot}.
Quite a simplification occurs in the field-theory limit given by eqs. (14)-(17) of \cite{sferot}, where the
interested reader can find the explicit form of the metric, the antisymmetric tensor and the dilaton fields.
It was shown there that the Euclidean continuation of this background is obtained
as an $O(3,3)$ transformation
of the $SL(2,R)_{-k}/U(1) \times SU(2)_k$ CFT.

\noindent
For vanishing rotation parameter $a_i$, $i=1,2$, this
background becomes that in (\ref{jk9}). The CFT operators
driving it to the full solution are found by
expanding the worldsheet Lagrangian density in the asymptotic region and keeping the first correction.
For this we obtain the expression
\begin{equation}
\delta {\cal L} =  \left[(a_1^2-a_2^2) J^3_+ J_-^3   +  \partial_+ t \partial_- t
 +  (a_2-a_1)  \partial_+ t J_-^3
 - (a_1+a_2) J_+^3 \partial_- t \right] e^{-q\phi} + {\cal O}\left(e^{-2 q \phi}\right)\ ,
\label{perrtt}
\end{equation}
where the time $t$ is represented by a timelike free boson and
\begin{eqnarray}
J^3_\pm =  \sin^2\theta \partial_\pm \phi_1 \pm \cos^2\theta \partial_\pm \phi_2\ ,
\end{eqnarray}
are chiral and antichiral (on shell) currents
of the $SU(2)_k$ WZW model (generated by $\sigma_3$).
The perturbation is clearly marginal and the dimension zero factor $e^{-q\phi}$
guarantees its normalizability.
We also note that the first term in (\ref{perrtt}) is also
responsible for spreading the NS5-branes from a point to a circle \cite{PreSfe} (see, fig.1).

\noindent
We conclude by mentioning that it remains to discuss systematically CFT deformations of the NS5 wold-volume.
In that respect appropriate supergravity solutions have been constructed in  \cite{Papadopoulos}.

Ingham parks to become more accessible and inclusive
By Ja'Kaila Taylor | April 27, 2022
As part of Ingham County's 2022-2026 Master Plan, a variety of accessibility developments for parks and recreation facilities are set to be implemented soon.
To sustain the parks and better accommodate the community for years to come, the Ingham County Parks Board of Commissioners composes a recreational master plan every four years. This includes a detailed plan of improvement projects that addresses several concerns, while meeting eight objectives. The most recent plan includes a variety of developments such as accessibility adaptations that allow for a maximized experience for everyone.
The Ingham County 2022-2026 Parks and Recreation Master Plan includes what's in store.
Such developments are contingent upon a demographic analysis of park visitors, citizen feedback and Americans with Disabilities Act guidelines. Using this system, facilities are graded from 1 (none of the facilities/park areas meet accessibility guidelines) to 5 (the entire park was developed/renovated using the principles of universal design).
After receiving updated assessment scores and considering community input, the board decided there is still room for further accessibility improvements to Ingham County parks.
Timothy Morgan, Ingham County parks director, said "We follow the ADA accessibility codes, but whenever we can, we try to take it up a notch and provide universal accessibility. This exceeds the minimal requirements, making things easier for all persons of all abilities when utilizing facilities."
Citizens can expect to see widened trails, added disc golf courses, movement of administrative offices to county park facilities, carousel renovations, restroom accommodations and more. Starting in 2023, designs and modifications will be made to parks across the county including Lake Lansing North, Lake Lansing South and Hawk Island. More parks are expected to see renovations in coming years.
Accessibility accommodations are essential for full community engagement. Having parks and recreational areas be more accessible for people who are physically or mentally impared could result in an ideal space for a larger percentage of the population. These improvements also contribute to urban health. According to Elizabeth Perry, assistant professor of parks, recreation and community engagement at Michigan State University, parks contain lots of well-being components. Incorporating accessibility developments would result in more inclusive spaces which could increase individuals' functionality and society contribution.
Making county parks and recreation areas has many upsides. Citizens are already showing their gratitude for such accommodations. MSU student and Ingham County resident Makayla Adams said, "Parks are a wonderful place where individuals from all walks of life with differing social identities can come together as one. Having a common meeting place where everyone is able to fully engage and participate is important. If recreational areas are not easily accessible to all, this would be impossible. It feels good to know that truly inclusive experiences are being considered and encouraged by the county".

CRi Tell Her
By Ashley Hampson
Montreal has been a hot spot for established and emerging beatmakers lately, from Jacques Greene to Lunice to Kaytranada — and now CRi (Christophe Dubé). Despite delving into electronic soundscapes only four years ago, CRi has already released a handful of EPs and has signed to TOKiMONSTA's label for his latest release, Tell Her.
Inspired by the likes of more introspective producers such as Caribou, Burial and Mount Kimbie, it's easy to hear what CRi is attempting to create on Tell Her — a cinematic narrative built on substance rather than dance floor bangers to toss to a crowd. The six-track EP works with subtlety, with the majority of songs wholly instrumental, save for two guest appearances. The build of the album is unassuming, oftentimes a slow progression culminating in a slight hook and wind down.
While Tell Her takes a few listens to sink in, it reveals its nuances in the process. (Young Art Records)

In Giving up the Ghost, Stephen Hummel hits his listeners with mile-high waves of synth drones and symphonics before snapping in IDM beats to break up the clouds. It is all about exorcising the "ghosts" in all of us 7-to-7ers, you see. He repeats this ambient method until one is restless enough to fast-forward through the filler to get to the rather lukewarm beats. However, some songs are worth the wait: "Freckle" is fine melancholia for homeless life under a 24th century city's glass dome, while "Nothing is Enough" weaves synth textures so thick that they smother like a pillow.

Spaceman (2016)
Baseball, Bill Lee, Brett Rapkin, Canada, Drama, Drugs, Ernie Hudson, Josh Duhamel, Literary adaptation, Pitcher, Review, Sport, True story, W. Earl Brown, Winter Ave Zoli
D: Brett Rapkin / 90m
Cast: Josh Duhamel, W. Earl Brown, Winter Ave Zoli, Ernie Hudson, Carlos Leal, Caroline Aaron, Claude Duhamel, Stefan Rollins, Wallace Langham
If you've heard of Bill Lee, one-time pitcher (and a left-handed pitcher at that) for the Boston Red Sox and the Montreal Expos, then chances are you also know about his drug-related background, his independence and need to challenge authority, plus his support for Maoist China, Greenpeace and school busing in Boston (amongst others). He was a well-known counterculture figure who appeared in an issue of the pro-marijuana magazine, High Times, and who once threatened to bite off the ear of an umpire in a 1975 World Series game. In later life, while still involved with baseball on a variety of levels, he was also asked to run for President of the United States on behalf of the Rhinoceros Party (his slogan: "No guns, no butter. Both can kill.") If nothing else, Bill Lee has led an extraordinarily rich and eventful life.
Which makes Spaceman all the more confusing for focusing on the period that immediately follows the end of his professional career. Fired for one challenge to authority too many (walking out before a game in protest at the release of a fellow player), Lee (Duhamel) expects to get right back in the game, so confident is he that his unique skills as a pitcher will be more than enough to offset his off-the-pitch behaviour. But when the offers don't come rolling in, Lee finds himself at a loss. His agent (and friend), Dick Dennis (Brown), keeps getting the runaround when he tries to contact the big league teams, and soon the message gets through: nobody wants him because everyone is tired of his shenanigans. He's also thirty-six, and time isn't on his side.
Lee's also trying to do right by his three kids. He's separated from his wife (Zoli) and can only have them over by arrangement. He's as unorthodox a parent as he is a baseball player, but his relationships with his children are one of the few aspects of his life that he gets right. Otherwise, Lee smokes a lot of weed, drinks a lot of booze, and dreams of making it back into the Big Leagues. But the offers don't come, his eventual divorce sees him deprived of any visitation rights, and to cap it all he receives an invitation to play for a Canadian seniors team. Intrigued and offended at the same time, Lee attends one of their matches, and helps them win. His need to play keeps him with the team for a while, until Dennis swings him a tryout for San Fran at their training facility in Phoenix. Lee motors all the way down there, only for the head coach (Langham) to dismiss him, and for Lee to learn that he won't ever be taken back into the Big Leagues. A coaching offer comes along too, but the lure of playing sees him contemplating returning to Canada and resuming playing in the Seniors' league.
Director Brett Rapkin has been here before. In 2003, he and fellow movie maker Josh Dixon joined Lee on a trip he was making to Cuba. The resulting footage made up the bulk of the documentary Spaceman: A Baseball Odyssey (2006). Ten years on and Rapkin's decision to revisit Lee's life (or at least a part of it) has led to his making a movie that starts off strong with Lee's determination to stand up for his teammate, but then it settles into an amiable groove that is pleasant to watch but eventually becomes so placid that not even the scene where he loses his visitation rights scores any dramatic depth.
By focusing on a period when Lee wasn't playing baseball, it seems that Rapkin (who also wrote the screenplay) has chosen to explore the nature of the man behind the legend. But when the man is the legend, there's little room for any real exploration, and so we have several moments where Lee informs anyone who'll listen that he needs to play baseball, several scenes where Lee mooches around at home in his Y-fronts, and even more scenes set in a bar where he squanders his time in playing the wounded, unappreciated hero. With the introduction of the Canadian seniors team, the movie does find something more interesting to focus on, but even then it continues to be more amiable than sharply detailed.
As the Spaceman, Duhamel makes up for his appearance in the dreadful Misconduct (2016) by infusing Lee with a great deal of charm and affability. The employment of a scruffy beard adds to the character, while his scenes with Zoli reveal the pain Lee is suffering at the collapse of his marriage (something that didn't happen in real life). But on the whole, Duhamel has little to work with, and while he's able to give a warm, occasionally disarming performance, he's too confined by the conventional nature of the material and the flatly handled narrative. The supporting cast have even less to hang a performance on, with only Zoli making any kind of impression, playing Lee's wife with a brittle dismay that seems all too appropriate.
While the movie as a whole is affectionate in its view of Lee and his anti-establishment outbursts, and his self-aggrandising, it does make an effort to remind viewers that for all his grandstanding he was an exceptional pitcher. At the San Fran tryouts, and before he's sent on his way, Lee's gift with a baseball is used to outclass an arrogant batsman, a scene that trades on an overly familiar scenario in sports movies while doing so with a valid sincerity (look closely at any shots of Lee pitching though and you'll see that the shot has been reversed; Duhamel isn't a leftie). Sadly, there are too few scenes of Lee doing what he did best, but thankfully, when there are they lift the movie out of the doldrums.
Rating: 5/10 – not a bad movie per se, but one that never aspires to be anything more than good-natured, Spaceman struggles to find any dramatic traction that might keep an audience from losing interest; ultimately, Rapkin's debut feature shows him working at a purposely even keel and forgetting to add some highs and lows to give texture to his otherwise genial look at a baseball hero and his fall from the Big Leagues.

Our mission in starting Helping Hands Rock Reviews was to raise awareness and money for worthy charities. We were thrilled when we were able to present our first donation to one of our personal favorite charities, Sage's Army, on November 10, 2013.
We recently had the chance to sit down with Carmen Capozzi, the founder of Sage's Army, to discuss what Sage's Army does, who it helps, and how you can get involved in their cause.
Helping Hands Rock Reviews: What events led you to start Sage's Army?
Carmen Capozzi: The death of my son, Sage. Sage passed away on March 5, 2012. He overdosed on heroin. He was 20 years old. I spent two days on the floor. On the second day, I heard Sage's voice say, "Dad, get up. They're not bad kids. You have to help." So, I did and, five days later, Sage's Army was started. My goal was to break the stigma of addiction. Addiction is a disease and we need to treat it as one.
HHRR: What does Sage's Army do?
CC: Awareness, Compassion, and Action. We speak at schools or any public event. We have community meetings once a month. I have even stopped at bus stops to talk to parents. [Drug abuse] is a growing epidemic. We are working with local and state legislators to stop it.
HHRR: The hub for Sage's Army is your Facebook Group. What goes on in the Sage's Army Facebook Group and how can someone join?
HHRR: Are there any resources or advice that you recommend for anyone struggling with drug addiction, families of those who are struggling with drug addiction, or even teens who are likely to encounter peer pressure to try drugs?
CC: We have a lot of resources on our website, http://www.sagesarmy.com. The Facebook page is great for asking for advice or info and people will comment. We are not professionals. We are mostly people who have lived the nightmare and can tell you what worked and what didn't work for us.
HHRR: Any final words about Sage's Army and its mission that you'd like to share with our readers?
CC: No one asked to become an addict. Some have made a bad choice to try a drug or were influenced by someone like a friend, doctor, or the media. We need to treat this as a medical condition and get the right help for a person suffering from addiction. The drugs that are on our streets and in our hospitals today are killing generations of people. Drugs are like a loaded gun. If they don't kill you, they will rob you of your life. And the drug dealer needs to be held responsible for using that gun! [People] discriminate against the addict and that keeps the drug dealer in business. Drugs don't discriminate, people do!
If you're interested in supporting Sage's Army, you can buy merchandise or make a donation directly to Sage's Army at http://www.sagesarmy.com/Products.html.

Springsteen announces E Street Band tour beginning in February
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will mark their return to the road in February 2023 with a string of to-be-announced United States arena dates, followed by European stadium shows kicking off on April 28 in Barcelona, Spain, and a second North American tour leg starting in August.
"After six years, I'm looking forward to seeing our great and loyal fans next year. And I'm looking forward to once again sharing the stage with the legendary E Street Band. See you out there, next year – and beyond," Springsteen said in a press release that was posted on brucespringsteen.net on May 24.
The planned European stops are Barcelona, Dublin, Paris, Ferrara, Rome, Amsterdam, Landgraaf, Zurich, Düsseldorf, Gothenburg, Oslo, Copenhagen, Hamburg, Vienna, Munich and Monza. Additional cities and shows in the United Kingdom and Belgium will be announced at a later date, according to the press release.
The 2023 dates will mark the first live shows for Springsteen and the E Street Band since the conclusion of their 14-month worldwide The River Tour in Australia in February 2017. The River Tour was named 2016's top global tour by Billboard and Pollstar.
Springsteen and the E Street Band last reconnected to perform on NBC-TV's "Saturday Night Live" in December 2020, where they launched live versions of two songs from their most recent studio album "Letter To You," which reached No. 1 in 11 countries and marked the band's first time recording live together in decades, according to the press release.
The members of the E Street Band are Roy Bittan (piano, synthesizer); Nils Lofgren (guitar, vocals); Patti Scialfa (guitar, vocals); Garry Tallent (bass guitar); Stevie Van Zandt (guitar, vocals); and Max Weinberg (drums); with Soozie Tyrell (violin, guitar, vocals); Jake Clemons (saxophone); and Charlie Giordano (keyboards).
In 2021, Springsteen unveiled his never-before-released "The Legendary 1979 No Nukes Concerts" film, collaborated with President Barack Obama on the book "Renegades: Born In The USA" and reprised his record setting show "Springsteen On Broadway" to help reopen New York City theaters last summer.
In March, Springsteen was in his hometown of Freehold Borough to unveil plans for My Hometown: The Bruce Springsteen Story Center. The exhibition space will be created in the renovated Freehold Fire Department headquarters, 49 W. Main St.
The plan to create the space was announced by the Bruce Springsteen Archives and Center for American Music at Monmouth University, West Long Branch, in collaboration with Freehold Borough municipal officials.
Springsteen, who grew up in houses on Randolph Street, Institute Street and South Street in the borough, said he consented to the idea of an exhibition space that is expected to include artifacts, photographs, multi-media displays and interactive displays.
The exhibition space is expected to attract visitors from around the United States and around the globe to Freehold Borough.
The anticipated opening date for My Hometown: The Bruce Springsteen Story Center is mid-2024, according to a press release from the Bruce Springsteen Archives.

MNM Inaugurates New Mobile Radio Studio
Lightweight, portable set-up provides a direct link to the VRT master control room
Marc Maes ⋅ Nov 12, 2018
BRUSSELS — With some 30 live onsite broadcasts per year, VRT's hit station MNM is an intensive user of the organization's outside on-air infrastructure. So much so that the Belgian Dutch-language public broadcaster set up a new on-air mobile facility, specifically designed to fit MNM's mobile needs.
"In the past, we used either studio gear that was either too heavy or with limited technical options," said Hans Rits, head of Radio Realization for MNM. "The new outside radio configuration had to be compact, light-weight and able to be operated by one person. We carefully went over the technical aspects bearing in minds these parameters."
Systems integrator Amptec built and integrated the mobile on-air unit, as part of its framework contract with the public broadcaster. "The presenter's desk is a clone of the 'banana'-shaped design in MNM's main studio," said Jasper Willems, Amptec's broadcast project engineer. "We made it fit into two flight cases and it looks like a real on-air studio."
Whereas in the past, the presenter used four displays, the new layout has just one central display and a laptop for the presenter. Like in MNM's main on air studio, the mobile set is using a DHD MX series modular console with a XC2 core and Dalet Plus playout software.
"The DJ has the option to prepare his or her program on a laptop using Dalet via VRT's dedicated VPN tunnel and export it into the system," Rits said. "At present we use a local playout system, but we have plans to set up a remote playout engine in the future." Two Shure Beta 87 microphones, Sennheiser HME headsets, a TC Electronic M 2000 effects processor and an Empirical Labs Distressor complete the configuration.
"As for the connectivity, we have replaced the VDSL lines from the past by a Peplink Pepwave MAX HD4 routing system — it holds multiple SIM cards from different providers and automatically selects the best connection," explained Rits. "Another novelty is that the mobile studio's signal is routed via a Prodys Quantum codec and goes directly on air via the VRT's radio master control room instead of through the main studio."
[Read: Radio 2 Limburg Goes on Air, in the Air]
The basic set up consists of four flightcases that can either be used in combination with the station's radio trailer or as an individual on-air set up. A self-op presenter, engineer and a social media editor operate MNM's mobile studio. "MNM is a 360° brand and in addition to our FM and DAB+ on-air signal, we want to fully integrate social media content in our programs," Rits added.
Rino Ver Eecke, MNM station manager, underlined the importance of the station's outside broadcasts. "Connecting with the audience, meeting our listeners and making radio is key for us. The implementation of creative and innovative technology is one of our priorities," he said.
"MNM is a hit radio station targeting 12 to 44 year olds — listeners who are open to new technology. In addition to visual content, we are experimenting with an AETA ScoopFone 4G, allowing remote presentation from virtually any place worldwide, and LiveU, combining a backpack with SIM-cards and a GoPro camera, transmitting live image streaming to our MNM-smartphone app."
The new mobile on-air unit was inaugurated in September to cover an MNM contest, where 10 MNM listeners won a five-day trip to New York for a special morning drive show broadcast aired from the "Big Apple." On Oct 24–28, Peter van de Veire hosted his morning show from New York with the help of a "light" version of the MNM mobile studio, which served as a "remote-control" studio MNM's on air facility in Brussels.

Glycobiology lessons. In-home private Glycobiology lessons, ads for efficient Glycobiology teachers and Glycobiology students offering private lessons and tuition to your children and for all levels.
Where are you looking for glycobiology lessons ?
I am open to giving lessons in biology and chemistry for qualifications like GCSE's, A levels, International baccalaureate, and advanced placement classes. If you would like me to teach you a different qualification let me know, and we can discuss it further. My methods of instructions are generally tailored to what the student would like to cover.
Hello , my name is Sam Williamson and my lessons are mainly targeted at GCSE level but I can also teach A-level also, my lesson structure will be as fun as possible (which i can empathise with being a student myself also at the moment very rarely are lessons actually attention grabbing) whilst also maintaining focus on the task.
My teaching style is adjusted based on each lesson. I require my clients to notify me of the topic prior to the lesson and will motivate them to study. I am friendly in my approach and understand the importance of support from tutors and teachers, in helping the next generation succeed in their studies.
I like to teach by making sure that person has clear knowledge of the basics. Like to use example and diagrams to make it easier for student to understand. The main thing is to know what individual student requirement is.
I would like to give one-on-one lessons to students, we can focus on whatever you are struggling with and work through revision techniques for you. I love helping people understand and enjoy science.
I have been tutoring for many years- I have also been tutored before so am aware what students are like.
I believe that hard work = great results! I change my teaching methodology depending on the style of teaching the student works best at. Repetition is key.
I adapt my lessons to the appropriate learning types. In general, it is best to learn if you also use images for visualization in addition to explanations of text content. I understandably break down complex content so that even the most challenging biological and chemical processes become understandable.
Basic motto is to teach students through online and make their learning easy. Design and create online learning tools and communities. Students centered discussions. making connection to the discussion. Provide a very good materials and notes with precise topics. provide appropriate links and videos related to concepts. Demonstrate wherever required.
I prefer to approach the subjects in a structured way. In order to structure a private lesson, the student should request the topics/subjects of his/her interest within 48 hours in advance and will set up a personalized lesson, usually using a slideshow and exercises, depending on each case, in order to meet the individual needs of each student.
A post graduate in science hoping to bring you closer to life!
I am quite young myself and believe that the kids need to understand it at their level without the 'jargon' interference.
Hi! If you want to learn in the best and most effective way, do not hesitate to contact me !!
High school student with honors in Biology and Science. I speak Catalan and Spanish perfectly, I also have the First Certificate in English, although I am taking the Advanced. As a student I have seen the methodology applied by the teachers, where the teacher explains and the students take notes, they memorize everything for the exam and there they let go.
I prefer on board teaching methods. And I like individual tuition. I have basic knowledge about Biology and sometimes do even clear concepts of my classmates also. Till now I have not given the class to anyone, but if I will get the opportunity, then definitely I will prove myself.
I start with the basic. I try to develop the conceptual part followed by practice questions. I conduct mock test periodically. I trace more onto text book. The role of faculty comes into action in shaping your career in ultimate way. I will assist you all the times to clear your fundamentals. I am quite experienced with knowledge and teaching over the last seven years.
I teach my students step by step, staring from basics to deep details. I have strong command in biochemistry, biotechnology, protein biology, bio-energy. I teach students at every level from 1st class to graduate students. I also give coaching from NET - JRF exams.
I would explain each of the concepts topic wise and would make sure that the students understamd the core concept of the topic. At the end of each section relevant mcqs would be solved for thorough practice and building concepts.
To work in a real professional atmosphere that enables me to cope up with the emerging as well as the latest technology and which gives me scope to widen the spectrum of my knowledge.

I am a Scientist working in a company at Bangalore, India. I love teaching as a profession. Biology is my favourite subject with Industrial Biotechnology as my Majors in Masters Degree. I give classes to Degree level students,Middle and Primary level.
1. Taking students' views over a certain topic. 2. Then telling them about the same and shape their insight to look at the topic how they should see. This would firstly make the topic interesting even for the students who feel bored attending the lectures, and secondly, it would help them in remembering the things easily on the basis of facts, rather than a forceful cramming.

55-nation bloc seeks to fuel economies around the continent
On 4 July, the 12th Extraordinary Summit of the African Union (AU) was held in Niamey, Niger to officially proclaim a project that is inherent within the notions of sovereignty and unity on the continent.
This African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) gathering took place in a nation in the western region [of Africa], which is endowed with uranium, one of the most strategic minerals in the world utilised for industrial, scientific and military purposes.
These contradictions within Niger related to its mineral wealth and the abject impoverishment of the masses of working class and rural people illustrates clearly the tremendous hurdles in which Africa must overcome to harness the economic and social potential of the AU member states. The AfCFTA was announced at a previous AU Summit in Kigali, Rwanda on 21 March 2018.
Over the past 16 months, some 27 governments have ratified the agreement while a total of 54 have signed the document mandating its establishment. The West African state of Ghana, once the fountainhead of Pan-Africanism during the 1950s and early to mid-1960s under the leadership of President Kwame Nkrumah, the foremost proponent of continental unification and socialism, was designated to host the secretariat for the AfCFTA.
In a statement released by the AU on 7 July, it says of the structure for the new continental body that: "The AfCFTA will be governed by five operational instruments, i.e. the Rules of Origin; the online negotiating forum; the monitoring and elimination of non-tariff barriers; a digital payments system and the African Trade Observatory. Each one was launched by different Heads of State and Government that included President Cyril Ramaphosa of South Africa, President Abdel Fattah El Sisi of Egypt who is current Chairperson of the AU, Moussa Faki Makamat, the Chairperson of the African Union Commission, and President Mahamadou Issoufou of Niger, who is the Champion of the AfCFTA." [[i]]
Nevertheless, analysts have pointed to prospective barriers for the implementation of the AfCFTA emanating from the legacy of slavery and colonialism. Africa remains divided into 55 separate states where intra-regional and class differences are a source of the conflicts, which exist inside many countries.
These impediments are also related to the lack of adequate transportation and telecommunications infrastructure. In addition, the reliance upon western foreign exchange currency in the arena of trade provides incentives for the maintenance of the status quo.
The AU statement issued on 7 July spoke to the current 1.2 billion people in Africa and projected 2.5 billion by 2050 as a source of strength related to the realisation of sustainable economic growth. Six years ago at the AU, the Agenda 2063 was affirmed aimed at economic integration and the adoption of a single currency on the continent.
Estimates indicate that with the actual operationalisation of the AfCFTA programme, the region would become a US$3.4 trillion economic zone. The breaking down of borders and the lifting of tariffs would in effect facilitate internal African trade.
At present, only 17 percent of trade in Africa is conducted with AU states. This can be contrasted with Asia where intra-continental trade stands at 59 percent and in Europe where it is 69 percent.
Moreover, the uneven development among various states must be transcended considering that countries such as the Republic of South Africa, the Federal Republic of Nigeria and Egypt encompass a sizable portion of the continental gross domestic product. South Africa is by far the most industrialised state on the continent while countries such as Nigeria, Angola, Libya and Sudan are leaders in the extraction and export of petroleum.
Overcoming dependency as a prerequisite for development
An indisputable historical fact is that Africa has been subjected to enslavement, colonisation and neo-colonialism through the rise and dominance of imperialism since the middle decades of the 15th century. This cannot be overlooked in making any honest assessment of the capacity for genuine growth and development.
There has been significant growth within African economies since the beginning of the 21st century. However, the reliance on export-based economic planning is objectively related to the stated mandate of the AfCFTA. Until the challenge of continental integration is seriously addressed the much desired substantial take off would not materialise.
Today's neo-colonial existence is definitely a by-product of the post-independence era crises of continuing underdevelopment, imperialist exploitation as well as the on-going military and intelligence interference in the internal affairs of all AU member states. The nation of Niger has been a focal point of Pentagon and French military engagement.
Through the United States Africa Command and the Paris-engineered Operation Barkhane, the imperialist governments not only have troops stationed on Nigerien soil; there is the presence of elaborate intelligence-gathering mechanisms including the positioning of highly-sophisticated reaper and predator drones in Niger. All across Africa, the Pentagon is in evidence under the guise of anti-terrorism and national security. Ultimately, Africa is responsible for its own security against reactionary elements, which have their origins within the imperialist centres.
The above-mentioned AU statement on the launch of the operational phase of the AfCFTA emphasises the link between security and development by stating: "The Chairperson also highlighted the importance of peace building and security on the continent, adding that 'it would be a delusion to talk of trade and development without peace and security.' He also stressed that, for the AfCFTA to be effective, there is [the] need to open borders to other Africans. In this light, host President Mahamadou Issoufou, said the free trade area will tear down borders inherited from Africa's colonial past and ensure full continental integration."
Kwame Nkrumah and Haile Selassie I in Ethiopia
Nevertheless, the presence of western military forces within AU member states represents the antithesis of the progressive and revolutionary currents of Pan-Africanism emanating from the First All-African Peoples Conference of December 1958 in Ghana right through to the armed resistance phase to colonialism, the founding of the Organisation of African Unity, the predecessor to the AU, and the burgeoning class struggle against a comprador elite propped up by international finance capital. Under the present circumstances, the imperialists are firmly positioned to stifle any economic development planning, which views the dominance of the world capitalist system as the major obstruction to Africa making a decisive turn in the direction of its rightful trajectory towards continental unification based upon the interests of the majority of its people.
The political essentials of continental integration
Consequently, a struggle must be opened up against the role of Washington and Brussels where the base of African underdevelopment strategies originate. As many historical materialist theorists have articulated over the decades, the development of North America and Western Europe was carried out through the underdevelopment of Africa.
Fundamentally the character of US, British and European Union foreign policy has not changed since the period of the Cold War. Wall Street, London and the Eurozone states have no intentions of relinquishing their profit-making capacity where the foundation of the exploitative system is situated. The Pentagon, North Atlantic Treaty Organisation and its auxiliary units are in Africa and other regions of the world to police the maintenance of existing structures in the international division of labour and economic power.
Of course there are other states and regional blocs vying for Africa's attention in the contemporary world situation such as the People's Republic of China, the Russian Federation and socialist-oriented states in Latin America. The US ruling class has intensified its economic and military wars against these countries, which provide an alternative form of development strategies for Africa and its people.
The attacks by Washington and its allies against the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and the Republic of Cuba are a case point. These two states along with Bolivia are attempting to build their own societies where the well-being of the majority of its people remains primary. Consequently, there are consistent attempts at subversion, diplomatic isolation and economic destabilisation by the current administration of President Donald Trump.
As it relates to China and Russia, the twin political capitalist parties in the US view the increasing influence of Beijing and Moscow as a threat to imperialist hegemony. The imposition of trade tariffs, sanctions and disinformation campaigns will undoubtedly lead to another world war. What will the AU member states' role going forward be in this escalating hostile geo-political situation, which threatens a protracted international conflagration?
Capitalism and its global outgrowth of imperialism cannot provide any viable solutions for Africa's development. The abolition of class society, the expulsion of western military interests from the continent and the broadening of trade policy inside and outside of Africa are the only way out of the foreseeable quagmire.
Socialism as an indispensable economic system to counter the imperialist states requires the organisation and mobilisation of the proletariat, farmers, youth and revolutionary intelligentsia centred on a programme of immediate integration and unification. The rising problems associated with imperialist militarism, the potentially calamitous effects of climate change and its concomitant exigencies related to the acquisition of sustainable energy sources, clean water supplies, people-centred agricultural production, guaranteed healthcare and quality education requires the attention of all serious African organisations.
AfCFTA can only be realised when the full weight of the masses is thrown towards its enactment. There is no substitute for the creative genius of the people in their quest for total freedom and social justice.

Office of County Clerk
History of the Office
The office of the County Clerk, sometimes referred to as "Keeper of the Records," is probably one of the first and oldest offices in the State.
After the organization of the State of New Jersey, official sanction was given to the office, and the name "County Clerk" was conferred upon the official in charge. The first reference to the office under this title appears in the law passed in June 7, 1779. The law, giving legal status to the office, was passed in 1806. The office was provided for in the Constitution of 1844, and again in the most recent Constitution of 1947. The County Clerk is therefore referred to as a "Constitutional Officer".
There is now a County Clerk elected in each of the twenty-one counties. Each County Clerk is elected for a term of five years. The Clerk must act in accordance with the New Jersey statutes set up for their office by the State Legislature.
The duties of the County Clerk are numerous with special responsibilities including, but not limited to:
Administering the Oath of Office and certifying notaries; Passport Services; Clerk Certificates; filing Trade Name Certificates; recording documents concerned with any Real Estate transaction (such as Mortgages and Deeds); filing of Military Discharges and issuance of Veteran Identification Cards, issurance of Veteran's Peddlers Licences; filing of Sub-division Maps and Wetlands Riparian Aerial Photos; and performing Wedding Ceremonies.
The County Clerk also plays a key role in the conduct of elections. All petitions for candidates for elective Countywide offices are filed in the Clerk's office, as are Independent candidate petitions for any county or municipal seats, and all petitions for school board. The Clerk is in charge of preparing and printing all election ballots. This includes; the sample ballots for the Primary and General elections. The Clerk's office receives and processes all applications for Vote by Mail. The County Clerk also draws for ballot position of candidates in the general election and for "top ballot" candidate positions in the June primary election. The county clerk acts as Clerk of the Board of County Canvassers and certifies official election results to the New Jersey Secretary of State. The Clerk prints voter registry lists and distributes same in accordance with election law.
The Clerk's Office is also an acceptance agency for the United States Department of State. Employees assist with the processing of passport applications. The County Clerk is authorized to appoint two Deputy Clerks and can designate Special Deputies to serve in special capacity in the County Clerk's Office.

Haji Rohullah (born c. 1967) is a citizen of Afghanistan held in the United States' Bagram Theater detention facility, in Afghanistan. Rohullah worked as a driver before being seized at his farm in Jalalabad in August 2006.

Identity
A captive was held in the United States' Guantanamo Bay detention camp in Cuba, named Sahib Rohullah Wakil, a member of Afghanistan's legislature, who is also known as "Haji Rohullah".
On January 16, 2010, the Department of Defense was forced to publish the names of the 645 captives held in the Bagram Theater Internment Facility.
Three of the individuals on the list were named Rohullah. The list distinguished between them solely by a sequence number:
003417,
003830, and
003841.

Capture and detention
When Rohullah's writ of habeas corpus was first filed, in 2006, it stated he had been captured in his home a year earlier.
Eleven other men were captured at the same time, but they were all released.

Ruzatullah v. Gates
Rohullah is one of the first enemy combatants held by the USA in a detention facility in Afghanistan who has been held able to mount a challenge to his detention through the US court system.
Rohullah, and another Afghan, Ruzatullah, had a writ of habeas corpus submitted on their behalf in November 2006.
On August 10, 2007 Rohullah's lawyers submitted a motion requiring the United States Department of Defense give thirty days' advance notice if they planned to transfer him from US custody to Afghan custody. They informed the court that Ruzatullah was quietly transferred out of US jurisdiction, without any notice, in June 2007.

The arguments in the motion were:
Petitioner Rohullah Will Suffer Irreparable Harm if He is Transferred Without Notice or an Opportunity to be Heard
 Petitioner Ruzatullah Faces the Threat of Irreparable Harm Based on the Potential Loss of his Habeas Claims
 Petitioner Rohoullah Faces the Substantial Threat of Torture
Petitioner Rohullah Has a Substantial Likelihood of Success on the Merits
The Requested Relief Will Not Harm Respondents
Public Policy Unequivocally Favors the Granting of Petitioner's Request

Rohullah and Ruzatullah are represented by A. Katherine Toomey, Eric L. Lewis and Dwight P. Bostwick of Baach, Robinson & Lewis and Tina Foster of the International Justice Network.

Jean Lin, a Justice Department attorney, had characterized the motion as ab "extraordinary and drastic remedy."
Lin had argued the motion would: "... interfere directly with the executive's conduct of war-making and foreign policy."

On October 4, 2007 U.S. district court judge Gladys Kessler ruled in Rohullah's favor that the DoD had to give his lawyer's thirty days advance notice of plans to transfer him from US custody.

On December 2, 2008 Sandra Hodgkinson, who was then the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Detainee Affairs, had a letter to the editor published in American Law, responding to Daphne Eviatar's article on Bagram captivity.

La Società Sportiva Lazio è stata la sezione di pallamano della Polisportiva S.S. Lazio avente sede a Roma, fondata nel 1980.

Storia

La fondazione e i primi anni
La Società Sportiva Lazio Pallamano nacque nel 1980; il primo Presidente fu Franco Cionci che rimase in carica fino al 1989. Inizialmente la squadra disputa gli incontri casalinghi all'impianto en plein air della Farnesina.

Il debutto della società avvenne a livello amatoriale, partendo dalla Serie D. I problemi da affrontare furono subito molti, oltre al terreno di gioco inadeguato, infatti, la società non aveva una vera e propria sede sociale. Nonostante ciò negli anni seguenti la Lazio arriva prima in Serie C e successivamente in Serie B.

La prima vera svolta arriva nel 1985, con gli ingaggi di giocatori di altissimo livello come Giuseppe Langiano, Dario Paroletti e Carlo Jurgens, campioni d'Italia nella stagione 1983-84 ed ex giocatori della Nazionale italiana. Da quest'anno le partite di campionato verranno disputate al Palazzetto di viale Tiziano.
L'innesto di questi elementi permette alla Lazio di compiere così progressivamente la scalata al vertice nazionale.

L'approdo in serie A1
La squadra viene promossa in serie A2 nel 1988-89; la stagione successiva centra la promozione in serie A1.

Nelle stagioni 1990-91, 1991-92 e 1992-93 partecipa al quindi al massimo campionato italiano ottenendo come miglior risultato il 4º posto nel campionato 1991-92.
Nel 1993 il club si ritrova senza sponsorizzazione e così la squadra composta da soli giocatori juniores retrocede in Serie A2.
L'ultima stagione in serie A1 viene disputata nel 1994-95 e termina con una nuova retrocessione in serie A2.

La rinuncia alla serie A e la chiusura dell'attività seniores
Nella stagione 1995-96 partecipa al campionato di Serie A2 ma alla quinta partita di campionato, data la difficile situazione finanziaria, il sodalizio romano è costretto a ritirare la squadra. La stagione 1996-97 vede il club partecipare al campionato di Serie B, ma per mancanza di budget, è inevitabile il ritiro dal torneo e la società decide di continuare l'attività giovanile.
Dal 1997 al 2004 la società quindi si è dedicata al solo settore giovanile.

La rinascita
Nella stagione 2004-05 viene riformata la squadra seniores che partecipa al campionato di Serie B.
Dopo una lenta risalita dal 2012-13 ha partecipato nuovamente al massimo campionato italiano, dal quale è retrocessa in A2 nel 2016.

Campionato Under 19
Nella stagione 2015/2016 la squadra Under 19 arrivò seconda in campionato dietro al Gaeta, nella stagione 2016/2017 è stata un'annata da dimenticare, la Lazio arrivò solo penultima.

Interviews: FEED THEM TO THE FOREST
Screamer 8:10:00 0
In this new occasion we have had the opportunity to interview the Alternative Rock/Emo/Pop Punk band FEED THEM TO THE FOREST from UK. Check out this band and give them a like on their FACEBOOK PAGE.
1.Where did you get the idea for the band name, you planned it or came out just like that?
Band names are notoriously hard to come up, either they're rubbish or it turns out someone has already used it! Our name came about totally randomly to be honest - Blood Brothers have a track on their (incredible) album 'Crimes' which is called 'Feed Me To The Forest' and it just struck me that it sounded like a cool band name. Our guitarist at the time said we should change it to 'Them' instead of 'Me', and here we are!
2.Why did you want to play this genre?
This is the kind of music that shaped me as a teenager, and it's a genre I fell in love with from day one. We've all been in various bands over the years, playing different styles of music, and when it came to FTTTF we just felt like we wanted to re-visit the sound that we grew up with, and put our own spin on it.
3. Did you know each other before the band was formed?
Mostly. Martin (guitar and vocals), Mike (bass) and myself all grew up in and around York, and our paths had crossed over the years through playing shows with each others band. Lee (guitar) is from Darlington,but came over to York for University and his band ended up knocking around in similar circles as us. Greg (drums) is a reasonably recent addition to FTTTF, and was somone Lee and I knew of, sort of a friend of a friend sort of thing, whereas Martin had actually played in a previous band with him a few years back.
4. Each band member favourite band?
Ahhh, this one is tricky, and tends to depend on what day I've been asked. I'll go with Taking Back Sunday though, as they are an absolute constant in my top 5 of all time. In fact, I'm gonna have to have two - can't not include The Waterboys, I grew up with that band and absolutely adore them. Also - Osker. 'Idle Will Kill' is one of the best records ever. Okay, that's three, sorry!
Lee - The Cure / Weezer
Greg - Faith No More
Martin - Queen / Say Anything
Mike - currently, Tiny Moving Parts. Constantly - Osker.
Everything really! Friends, family, life itself. Lots of our songs are born out of frustration, or regret, but hopefully as a channel to work through those emotions and situations. I guess writing and performing these songs acts as somewhat as a stress ball!
6. Where was your last gig?
Our last show was actually a friends birthday party in Leeds, which was super fun. Our last 'proper' gig would of been at the Key Club with Dream State. The Key Club is a great venue, its run by the team behind Slam Dunk festival, and Dream State are absolutely killing it right now so that was a really enjoyable night.
7. Where would you like to play?
So many places! East Coast of the States is high on my list, but that's partly just because I really wanna visit there. Closer to home, we're really keen to expand out onto the mainland, I'd love to visit Berlin,Amsterdam, playing Barcelona would be pretty cool too. Basically, anywhere and everywhere!
8. Whom would you like to play with?
Well, straight off the bat, any of the bands we listed in our favourite bands earlier, although that might well lead to some slightly bizarre genre clashes. Taking Back Sunday would of course be incredible, as would bands like Jimmy Eat World, The Used, Say Anything. Representing the U.K scene though, both Creeper and The Gospel Youth are doing really amazing things, so it would be an absolute delight to share the stage with them.
Don't really want to get into naming names, but obviously any band with problematic lyrics or behaviour. Sometimes it's hard to tell as the image a band presents could seem totally a-ok, but if the way they conduct themselves off stage and behind closed doors is fucked up, then obviously that's not something we'd wanna be associated with. Basically, don't be a dick!
10. Any of you has ever suffered from stage fright? Any tip for beginners on how to beat that?
I've never really suffered from stage fright, but sometimes it can be hard to click into 'performance' mode. I just tend to psych myself up, because I know I'll feel even worse if I come off stage and know I haven't given it my all. I just remind myself that I'm super proud of what it is we do, and that I wanna do these songs justice once we get on that stage.
11. What bands have inspired you the most?
Again, probably those same bands we've mentioned, both as our favourite bands and also the one's we'd love to play with. Anyone out there who is pushing on with doing their own thing, taking pride in it and being creative, that's the kind of thing that inspires me to keep cracking on.
12. What's the weirdest thing a fan has ever asked you for?
Nothing too outlandish to be honest! Lee and Martin were asked to be in a few photos after a recent show, and to me that's pretty weird. Mostly cuz they're weird looking dudes.
13. What do you think of your fans?
They're great! To have people support what you're creating, and to know that they're enjoying our music, that's a wonderful feeling.
14. What do you think of our site?
It's really cool to see not only a mixture of genres, but also up and coming acts alongside more established bands. It's really important for new music to be included in things like this, as it's one of the best ways for them to reach new people who might end up becoming fans!

*All files are places correctly in folders

*There are no warnings or error messages

*The MYSQL Table structure is correct and there are no errors in database

Note: all functions I'm about to define are in the same file 'functions.php'
Over here we have the session function
include_once("global_config.php");
include_once("db_connect.php");
function sec_session_start()
{
    $session_name = 'sec_session_id';
    $secure = SECURE;
    $httponly = true;
    if(ini_set('session.use_only_cookies', 1) === FALSE)
    {
        echo "Could not initiate a secure session";
        exit;
    }

    $cookieparams = session_get_cookie_params();
    session_set_cookie_params($cookieparams['lifetime'],$cookieparams['path'],$cookieparams['domain'],$secure,$httponly);
    session_name($session_name);
    session_start();
    session_regenerate_id();
}

The global_config file define the mysql password, database, user and host and the db_connect file simply return the mysqli_connect to connect to the database.
And this over here is the login function
function login($user,$pass){
    sec_session_start();
    $link=linkit();
    if(empty($user) || empty($pass) || !isset($user) || !isset($pass)){
        echo "Error Code: 313, Please contact network administrator for more information";
        exit;
    }else{
        $usercheck = "SELECT `id`,`username`,`password`,`salt` FROM `".LOGINTABLE."` WHERE `username`=? LIMIT 1";
        if($stmt=$link->prepare($usercheck)){
            $stmt->bind_param('s',$user);
            $stmt->execute();
            $stmt->store_result();
            $stmt->bind_result($id,$username,$realpassword,$salt);
            $stmt->fetch();
            $stmt->close();

            if(empty($realpassword)){
                echo 'Unrecognized Username, Please enter a valid username';
                exit;
            }else{
                if($realpassword===$pass){
                    $_SESSION['username'] = $user;
                    $_SESSION['user_id'] = $id;
                    $_SESSION['login_string'] = hash('sha512',$pass);
                    return true;
                }else{
                    echo "Invalid Password!";
                    exit;
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

The linkit() method is the one defined in db_connect.php which returns mysqli_connect. Also note that the script successfully makes it to setting the Session variable which means that it does return true.
NOW THE PROBLEM is this, when I'm checking for logged in status
function check_login()
{
    if(isset($_SESSION['user_id']) &&
            isset($_SESSION['login_string']) && isset($_SESSION['username']))
    {
        $user_id = $_SESSION['user_id'];
        $username = $_SESSIOOO['username'];
        $login_string = $_SESSION['login_string'];

        $pwd_check = "SELECT `password` FROM `".LOGINTABLE."` WHERE `user_id`=? LIMIT 1";
        if($stmt = linkit()->prepare($pwd_check))
        {
            $stmt->bind_param('s',$user_id);
            $stmt->execute();
            $stmt->bind_result($realpassword);
            $stmt->fetch();
            $stmt->close();
            $hashedpass = hash('sha512',$realpassword);
            if($login_string==$hashedpass){
                return true;
            }else{
                return false;
            }
        }else{
                return true;
        }
    }else{
        return false;
    }
}

AND FINALLY, this is WHERE I process my login script. Also note that there are no errors in POST methods or anything else. They all work fine.
This is in a separate php file and NOT in the functions.php
<?php
include_once '../includes/functions.php';
if(empty($_POST['loginuser']) || !isset($_POST['loginuser']) || !isset($_POST['id']) || empty($_POST['id']) || !isset($_POST['password']) || empty($_POST['password']))
{
    echo "Error Code: 412, Please contact network administrator for more information";
    exit;
}else{
    if($_POST['loginuser']==="true")
    {
        $user = $_POST['id'];
        $pass = $_POST['password'];
        if(login($user,$pass)==true)
        {
            echo "Logged In!";
        }else
        {
            echo "Failed to login, check your username or password";
        }
    }
}
?>

Additional Information :

*

*The response I get is "Logged In"

*Session is successfully creaated

PROBLEM: When I check for the login status, it returns false despite of having the session variables set.

A: In check_login you are hashing the password and then compare the unhashed password
function check_login()
{
    if(isset($_SESSION['user_id']) &&
            isset($_SESSION['login_string']) && isset($_SESSION['username']))
    {
        $user_id = $_SESSION['user_id'];
        $username = $_SESSIOOO['username'];
        $login_string = $_SESSION['login_string'];

        $pwd_check = "SELECT `password` FROM `".LOGINTABLE."` WHERE `user_id`=? LIMIT 1";
        if($stmt = linkit()->prepare($pwd_check))
        {
            $stmt->bind_param('s',$user_id);
            $stmt->execute();
            $stmt->bind_result($realpassword);
            $stmt->fetch();
            $stmt->close();
            $hashedpass = hash('sha512',$realpassword);
            if($login_string==$hashedpass ){
                return true;
            }else{
                return false;
            }
        }else{
                return true;
        }
    }else{
        return false;
    }
}
