Zander Venezia Got This Barrel Before His Tragic Death
The photo and story of the 16-year old Barbados local's last wave
news // Sep 6, 2017
There's an old saying: "Death is as near to the young as to the old; here is all the difference: death stands behind the young man's back, before the old man's face." Following the sudden and as-of-yet unexplained death of 16-year-old Zander Venezia, the Barbados community is feeling death all around.
With swell from Hurricane Irma quickly filling in on Barbados' east coast, Venezia paddled out this morning at an undisclosed reef, alongside a host of locals and longtime friends, as well as Nathan Florence, Dylan Graves, and Balaram Stack, who had flown in for the swell with photographers Daniel Russo and Jimmy Wilson.
According to Wilson, after catching a handful of beautiful waves throughout the morning, Venezia's board was spotted floating inside of everyone, his limp body underwater being hammered by the building surf. Nathan Florence was the first to reach him, and began administering CPR.
"Nathan and Balaram were the first to get to him," Wilson said. "His board was tombstoning, he was underwater. I got a photo of his last wave[see above]. But he made that wave. Didn't fall. I think it might have happened on his way in. We're not really sure what happened, other than he told someone he was going in."
Surfers clamored to safely bring him to shore, a daunting task at the notoriously treacherous reefbreak the crew had been surfing. Once on the beach, Florence and a fleet of heroic locals desperately tried to resuscitate the 16-year-old, performing CPR until medics arrived on the scene. Venezia was pronounced dead Tuesday afternoon, from complications of a broken neck, though details are still forthcoming.
Lauded as one of Barbados' up and coming stars, Venezia was still reeling from a big win just two weeks ago, at the Rip Curl Grom Search in North Carolina.
"You had such an amazing session today," Saint Augustine's Asher Nolan, who witness the session this morning, posted to Instagram. "Surfed for 4 hours. You were humble, respectful, full of positive energy that every kid should look up to and live the way you did. Gone too soon. My heart is heavy. The Venezias always treated me like family and it hurts that they have to go through losing someone so special."
Our hearts go out to Zander's parents, Lisa and Louis Venezia, his sister, Bella, and to the Barbados surfing community at large.

LAKE CHARLES, La. (August 17, 2021)— Visit Lake Charles will host the Pro Watercross National Championships on Saturday, August 28 and Sunday, August 29, at the North Beach of Lake Charles.
Watercross is simply motocross on Personal Watercrafts (PWC) or jet skis. Athletes compete on unpredictable liquid tracks varying from oceans to rivers to lakes. Competitors challenge the notion of what is possible on a PWC; utilizing the most advanced equipment and reaching speeds of over 85 mph against a full line of competitors. Driven by their passion, this sport brings an event that combines adrenaline and pure enjoyment of being on the water.
Pro Watercross and Visit Lake Charles signed a three-year contract to host the championship event in Lake Charles that extends through 2022 due to Covid-related scheduling delays.
"The Pro Watercross National Championship event brings competitors from across the country to showcase their high level of skill. We are grateful for the Lake Charles community coming together to host this event. Our athletes are looking forward to experiencing Southwest Louisiana's hospitality, culture, food, music, and the great outdoors," said AJ Handler, CEO/Founder at the Pro Watercross National Tour.
"After such a difficult year in Southwest Louisiana, we are looking forward to an exciting weekend of competition for the Pro Watercross National Championship showcasing the best professional and amateur athletes in the sport. We want to encourage locals and tourists alike to experience this high-energy event and free, family-fun on North Beach," said Eric Zartler, Visit Lake Charles Sales Director.
Competitors begin practice at 9:15 a.m. followed by the Pro Show at 11 a.m. through 3 p.m. The Pro-Am Championship award ceremony will round out the day. Amateur racing kicks off Sunday at 8:45 a.m. with the Amateur National Championship Award Ceremony closing out the tournament. Registration information for competitors can be found at Prowatercross.com/lc.
Rita's Creole Family Kitchen, Smokehouse '36, Gary's Grub Hub, and Kona Ice food trucks will be available for spectators to purchase food and beverages. The event is open to the public and free to attend.
More details on the National Championships can be found at ProWatercross.com. For more information about Lake Charles/Southwest Louisiana, log onto www.VisitLakeCharles.org.

SINGER CAR CLUB OF AUSTRALIA AT A GLANCE
The Singer Car Club of Australia was formed in 1976 in Victoria to bring together owners of Singer vehicles and other persons with an interest in the Singer marque. Singer car clubs were subsequently formed in New South Wales, South Australia and Queensland. Each club runs as a separate entity due to history and different state regulations but there is close cooperation between the state clubs and the Victorian club has many members from around Australia.
Connecting Members
Each state club runs as a separate entity due to history and different state regulations but there is close cooperation between the state clubs and the Victorian club has many members from around Australia.
In Victoria we run as an incorporated body (8428G) under state law. We are a registered 'Red Plate' club which means our Victorian members can access the Club Permit Scheme. The club is principally a one make club and the members are dedicated to the preservation and enjoyment of the Singer marque. We are affiliated with the Association of Motoring Clubs (AOMC) and the Federation of Veteran, Vintage and Classic Car Clubs.
Members are kept in touch by our email newsletter Out and About in Victoria, and by the quarterly Singer Wheels magazine around Australia. We also hold a regular Natter Night on the first Tuesday of each month at the Royal Oak Hotel, Bridge Road Richmond. We hold regular events and trips here in Victoria, and on a national level bi-annual National Rallies are hosted by each state club in turn.
The most recent National Rally was held in 2019 in Ballarat and the next National Rally will be held by the NSW club in Orange at Easter 2021. Members have access to the club's stock of spare parts, and also the club library which has a variety of Singer related resources.
Overseas we are associated with Singer clubs in the UK, USA, Canada, France, Holland and New Zealand.
Biannual Event for all Singers from around Australia
We hold a National Rally in the Easter period every second year. Each branch takes turns in hosting the event in their own state. This is a hugely popular biannual event. The 2019 Rally was in Ballarat and next National Rally will be in Orange NSW in 2021 .

The global custody business is becoming digitized, and custodians have adopted innovative strategies in delivering data, widgets and APIs to their global, diverse client bases. The idea of the custodian as safekeeper of assets is still relevant, but along with that comes an expanding toolkit of applications designed to help clients manage their business better, extending into the front office.
In this report, Finadium conducted interviews with digital and data managers at Brown Brothers Harriman, BNY Mellon, Citi and State Street to hear their views on how client-facing technology has evolved and where it is heading. The four major custodians profiled each have slightly different views on the business, but commonalities include: a use of data for both client facing and internal purposes; the requirement that data access must be customizable for user needs; and an expectation that data will drive the future of the industry.
This report has been written for capital markets professionals with an interest in custody-linked services for large institutions and money managers. It is a competitive analysis of what custodians are doing and a benchmark on their successes versus their peers. It should also be useful for non-custody technology providers and regulators considering what the next opportunities are in the complex and critical custodial-linked marketplace.
– What is a Custodian Today?

MDA advisory committees flag advertising on public broadcast media in new report
MDA's public advisory committees released a report reminding public television and radio broadcasters to be careful in their presentation of advertisements during programmes.PHOTO: ST FILE

SINGAPORE - Care should be taken with the presentation of advertisements on public television and radio programmes, according to the latest report from the Media Development Authority's Public Advisory Committees (PACs).
If a programme promotes its sponsors' products before the end credits roll, broadcasters should make it obvious that viewers are watching an advertisement segment, the report said. Otherwise, such in-programme advertising - which features the programmes' actors and sets - could be "misleading".
The report also flagged radio advertisements for health supplements that targeted retirees and homemakers tuning in to Malay-language station Warna and Tamil-language station Oli. There was concern that these lengthy advertisements, which made use of testimonials touting health and beauty products' effectiveness, could result in listeners not seeking professional medical advice.
Sex and language on air also proved to be thorny subjects for the Programme Advisory Committee for English Programmes.
Mediacorp told again to distinguish advertisements from programmes
Singapore Press Holdings was issued a warning for a "crude, explicit and sexually suggestive" advertisement on its ONE FM 91.3 radio station. The line "if you buy me enough drinks, maybe I will show you my down under", delivered by a woman character, was found to breach broadcast guidelines.
A television commercial by travel company Expedia was chided for "excessive" use of Singlish, and some committee members objected to its "crude and inappropriate" use of the Hokkien expression "wah lao".
The committees' report, which reviewed broadcast productions from August 2014 to March 2016, found that local drama and infotainment programmes have improved in quality and cover a broader range of issues.
It offered suggestions for further improvement in developing diverse and competent programming, such as working with senior citizens on programmes targeted at that age group. The Malay Programmes Advisory Committee also felt that dramas featuring inter-racial relationships could explore the nuances of mixed marriages beyond superficial cultural differences.
Members of the four PACs, which are appointed by the Ministry of Communications and Information, review broadcast programmes in the four official languages and provide feedback to the Government on quality and standards.

From his end, President Vella said that he is honoured that the Secretary-General put this suggestion on the table; however he will only consider this position after having consulted with Prime Minister Joseph Muscat

A soft tissue injection is a noninvasive, nonsurgical pain relief treatment. These simple procedures can provide you with long-term relief from chronic pain conditions such as arthritis and tennis elbow. The procedure works by either removing excess fluid from the tissue, or by inserting anti-inflammatory medications into it. Unlike joint injections, soft tissue injections are administered in the spaces between a muscle and the bone.
A soft tissue injection will administer treatment directly to the source of pain, which means results should be noticeable much faster than they would be through less direct methods.
When you arrive at Pain Specialists of America, our team will learn more about you, your problem, and how long it's been bothering you. We will then determine if soft tissue injections will be a useful treatment for your condition.
The needle is injected using ultrasound guidance. Fluid is drained or anti-inflammatory medication is inserted as needed.
After the procedure, you should try to keep the injection area immobilized for the next 12 to 18 hours. These procedures are very safe, and outside of some minor soreness, side effects of rare. There are sparse reports of certain patients experiencing hyperpigmentation, atrophy of subcutaneous fat, and infections after the injection, but the chances of this happening are very low.


Scavenging: passwords often typed where they might be recorded as login name, in other contexts, etc.

Materials.- Three and a half ounces crimson double zephyr, two and a half ounces white, half an ounce black, small bone or wooden needles.
CAST on thirty-five stitches, knit five stitches forwards and five backwards, thus forming the blocks; knit five lines in this way, widening one stitch at the commencement of each line. Knit the second row of blocks alternate with the first; knit eighteen blocks, then divide the blocks so that five are left in the middle and an equal number on each side. Bind off the five middle blocks, and knit up one front, narrowing one stitch on the inside every fourth line for six blocks; narrow every other line for the next six blocks; then narrow every line till you come to a point. For the border, cast on twelve stitches, knit plain; for the neck, ten stitches in width. The spots are darned on with black, in imitation of ermine.
A loop is put on one end, in front, and a button on the other, it crossed over and buttoned at the back; the back is fastened to a cord and tassels passing round the waist and tied in front.
[Modern instructions are in regular type and additional translator's note are in italics.] The size given here is the same as the original pattern, which tends to run small. I have found that increasing the number of stitches will take this to a medium size, which tends to fit the majority of people. Those adjustments are given in parentheses after the original number. If you need to make further adjustments, do so at these points. Otherwise, the materials list and instructions have just been translated, and not changed in any way. The completed sontag spread flat on a quilt is shown in the picture to the left.
Cast on 35 (55) stitches, knit five stitches, then purl five stitches, thus forming the blocks. Knit five rows in this way, increasing one stitch at the beginning of each row. Knit the second row of blocks alternate with the first; knit until you have eighteen alternating blocks, which forms the back, then divide the blocks so that five are left in the middle, and an equal number on each side. Bind off the five middle blocks (this is for the neck), and place one side on stitch holders to work later. Continue in the pattern on each side of the front, working separately, decreasing one stitch on the inside every fourth line for six blocks; decrease every other line for the next six blocks; then decrease every line until you come to a point. Remember to always do the decreases on the inside.
If you want the sontag a bit longer and wider on the shoulders, then continue in the pattern after binding off the next section without decreasing for 3 (9) rows before beginning the decreases. The illustration included is done in this fashion.
The border may be worked as described, which is following the original pattern, or use a double crochet border (2 or more rounds) and then darn in the spots if desired. The one I am showing simply has a double crochet border (see picture on right). You may also use a shell edge, as I have seen this on originals as well.
A loop is put on one end, in front, and the button on the other. It is crossed over and buttoned at the back; the back is fastened to a cord, and tassels passing round the waist and tied in the front.
You may create a cord by either knitting a modern I-cord, which, in appearance, looks like a cord made on a lucet, or by crocheting a cord, and then attaching it.

798 Destiny at the Intersection IV
 After Rhode left the Land of Atonement, Nell had been responsible for training Joey and his team of Thieves, secretly watching over Sara's alchemy workshop, and monitoring situations around the fortress. Rhode had to admit that the ordinary Thieves couldn't be compared to Dark Elves. However, Nell's relationship with the others was limited, unlike Canary who had known Rhode for the longest period and was most familiar with him, which made her the leader among the people. Moreover, she was gentle, powerful, and despite her appearance not being the most beautiful, almost no one opposed to her commands. On the other hand, as Marlene and Lize were childhood friends who had slept with Rhode, so they imperceptibly formed an alliance. Of course, they got along well with Canary and Anne too, which explained why they weren't disgusted after knowing about their intimate relationships with Rhode.
Even though Lapis liked Rhode, their relationship didn't develop into 'that stage', so she was out of the picture. On the other hand, Gillian was difficult to read. As for Christie, everyone knew that Rhode treated her purely as a kin.
In the case of Nell and Sonia... They were less accepted by the other females. Even though Rhode didn't mention publicly his relationship with Nell and Sonia, the other females were extremely sensitive in this aspect. Therefore, Anne, Lize, and Marlene seldom interacted with Nell. On the other hand, Sonia was a member of the Light Parliament and the conflict earlier on by the entrance of the fortress placed her on their list of unpopular women. Canary held a superior position and clearly understood the position of these two women in Rhode's heart.
It was due to this that Marlene grumbled about the trouble that Nell had caused. This wasn't due to jealousy, but was due to their lack of interactions. Besides, Nell was in the wrong for attacking first. After all, it was too much for her to attack a diplomatic emissary from another country without logical reason!
Therefore, Nell was captured after her failed ambush, but Marlene didn't request to lock her up in the underground prison. Instead, she allowed Corina to detain her-one reason was to appease Corina while the other reason was that as Rhode's woman, Marlene disliked a Dark Elf like Nell. Fortunately, Marlene knew that Rhode wasn't emotionally attached to Nell. If Rhode were to be deeply in love with Nell, Marlene would surely explode in jealousy...
Even though Marlene didn't speak too badly about Nell, Rhode sensed the deep discontentment inside her. Just as Marlene thought, Nell was more like a tool for Rhode's physical desires. Previously, in order to make her yield and alter her soul contract completely, he had to 'make love' with her, which also fulfilled his curiosity for intimate experiences with the Dark Elves. In terms of emotional attachment, perhaps Rhode was more attached to Celestina than Nell because in his mind, Nell was nothing more than a servant...
It was due to this reason that Rhode didn't bother eliminating Marlene's and Lize's dissatisfaction toward Nell. This time, Nell had indeed gone overboard and left them in some trouble.
He listened and nodded firmly to their grumbles because he understood their characters. They complained about Nell for the sake of expressing their dissatisfaction and weren't using the chance to kick her out of here. It was especially so for Lize because she was training the church's Clerics and now that this situation happened, it left her in an awkward position. On the other hand, Marlene stepped in as the person in charge whenever Rhode was absent and had to handle the effects of this matter on an internal and diplomatic level, leaving her in an incredible headache.
Rhode consoled both of them and of course, this wasn't enough to solve the problem. This situation required him to take action personally...
No matter what, Corina was the Country of Law's representative, so Rhode had to meet her personally. However, the lack of a solution wasn't a problem for him.
After a series of preparations, Rhode quickly made his way to the church located inside his fortress. It was a tall, triangular building made of black bricks, unlike the magnificent churches that he saw in the real world. The churches in this world appeared low-profile and dignified like the merging of a bank and court. The most glaring object was the symbol hung above the entrance-a badge of two dragons holding a sword and scale each: the symbol of the Country of Law.
Corina lived in the church and didn't require any lavish living conditions as an Elf. After notifying the church of their arrival, Rhode and his men were brought to the courtyard where they saw Corina, and Nell who was locked up in the water cell.
The Elves' so-called water cell wasn't the dark, putrid prison that Rhode built under his fortress. Instead, it was a cube formed by a barrier of water. Rhode was rather curious because Nell didn't seem to be in any discomfort. On the contrary, she gritted her teeth and glared fiercely at Corina as though the latter had murdered her parents... However, wasn't it usual for the Dark Elves to annihilate others' families?
Corina turned to Rhode and shortly after, dubious glints flashed in her eyes.
Rhode didn't arrive at the church alone. Instead, he brought a surprising group of beings-apart from Canary, there was also Agatha, Lapis, and two petite figures wrapped in their white cloaks.
Gracier and Madaras.
"Greetings, Sir Overlord."
Corina felt rather dubious, but quickly stood up and nodded. Rhode bowed in response.
"Sorry for interrupting your busy schedule, Miss Corina."
Rhode lifted his head.
"I guess you're aware of the reason why I'm here, Miss Corina. I sincerely apologize for my subordinate's unruly behavior toward you. It is all due to my negligence. Please accept my apologies."
"This isn't the problem, Sir Overlord."
Corina's expression turned solemn instantly. She puckered her brows and gazed in resentment.
"I'm deeply disappointed in you. I thought that you were a great friend to us, Elves, but now... You actually mixed with a Dark Elf. This has baffled me. What do you have to say for this?"
"I think this is just a misunderstanding."
Rhode twitched his brows slightly before answering.
"Nell is one of the captives I captured from the previous battle. She became my devoted subordinate. I understand the grudges Elves hold against the Dark Elves, but please pardon my rudeness, because the grudges don't seem related to a human like me. As for the loss and shock that this matter has caused you, I sincerely apologize and am willing to offer compensation. Apart from this... I can't promise anything else."
"She's a Dark Elf, Sir Overlord. Even though she doesn't look like one... You should know what the Dark Elves represent."
"Of course, Miss Corina. I won't try to convince you about the Dark Elves, but Nell is my subordinate, after all. No matter if she's a Dark Elf or not, anyone is the same as my subordinate."
Corina didn't respond immediately. After all, the people around him were overly convincing. If there were only Dark Elves around him, Corina would believe that he was finding excuses for himself. However, she was speechless after witnessing the other Elves surrounding him.
Rhode gazed around him and felt rather amused because this could be said to be a historic gathering of the Elves-an elemental Elf, Moon Elf, Alchemy Elf, Dark Elf, and two White Elves-the Elemental Elves were the earliest to branch out from the Elves and enter the elemental world. The White Elves were the most ancient and honorable race. The Moon Elves took over the White Elves' honor after the Creation War. On the other hand, the Alchemy Elves and Dark Elves separated themselves from the Elves in order to avoid the terrifying Creation War.
"But I would like to remind you that the Dark Elves are different from the other Elves, Sir Overlord. They are evil, brutal, and..."
"Rubbish!"
Out of a sudden, Nell snarled. She glared at Corina from inside the water cell.
"You are the ones who are evil and brutal! You slaughtered our family and children on the surface and forced us into the dark underground! You call us the betrayers, but in fact you are the ones who were the most hypocritical and evil betrayers! Despite us having a brand new start in the dark underground, you have never given up on eliminating us. We craved peace, but staining your blades with our blood is your only answer!"
"Wha-..."
Corina widened her eyes in disbelief.
"The Elves who defied or held different values were expelled and annihilated. These were the hypocritical doings of you surface Elves! All we could do was to hide in the shadows of the underground and mix with the demons and spirits. It was all due to your vicious doing!"
Lapis revealed a rather affirmative expression. The Behermes Family was expelled for having ideals to modify nature and life, which eventually led to their destruction. Judging from this point, Lapis and Nell were on common ground and it went to show that the Elves weren't as innocent as Corina made it out to be.
On the other hand, Agatha watched everything in silence. As elemental Elves, they had been living in the elemental world, so the clashes and wars on the main plane of existence had nothing to do with them. On the other hand, Gracier and Madaras tilted their heads curiously. After all, they could be considered the ones who had personally experienced and created the existence of this conflicting history.
"This is only a lie that the Dark Elves fabricated!"
It seemed that Corina had never expected to receive such an answer from a Dark Elf and she was flustered.
"Back then, you abandoned the battle against the enemies and escaped into the underground! It had nothing to do with us! What you just said was a bunch of nonsense!"
"The victor's history."
Rhode shrugged, turned to Canary, and said. The latter smiled in silence. In fact, no matter the Moon Elves, Dark Elves, or Alchemy Elves, they held a certain extent of subjectivity to the records of history. In this aspect, perhaps only the Elemental Elves and White Elves held enough right to speak their minds.
However, Rhode didn't come here to help the Elves align their views on the right history.
"Alright, both of you."
He stepped forward to intervene. Then, he turned to Nell and said with a gloomy expression.
"Miss Nell, I guess you understand that it isn't the dark underground here. No matter what sort of a past the Dark Elves have, it has nothing to do with us. You're my subordinate now and the grudges between the Dark Elves and Elves are long gone in the dust of history. I don't wish to see you causing trouble in my territory for this matter anymore."
Nell gritted her teeth and lowered her head. At this moment, Rhode turned to Corina.
"Miss Corina, I'm sorry for the danger you faced. I guarantee that I will punish Nell and ensure that she stops this unruly behavior of hers. If you need anything, please let me know. As a form of compensation and as long as it is within my means, I will gladly do it."
"But..."
Corina knitted her brows as she gazed at Rhode. Then, she shifted her gaze to Gracier and Madaras. After pondering for a few moments, she nodded helplessly.
"Alright, I hope you can keep your promise. I will not look into this matter anymore and won't report this to the Country of Law. But I don't wish to see such an incident again. I shall take it as you owe me a commitment, Sir Overlord."

The Republic of Sierra Leone is located on the West Coast of Africa, between latitudes 7 and 10 north and longitudes 10.5 and 13 west. The Republic of Guinea is to the north and northeast; Liberia is to the east and southeast, and the Atlantic Ocean on the west and south. It has 300 miles of coastline.
From an approximate 70-mile coastal belt of low-lying land, the country rises to a mountain plateau near the eastern frontier rising 4000 to 6000 feet with a rich timber forest region. The Western Area encompasses the Sierra Leone Peninsula, on which the capital and main commercial centre of Freetown stands; is 24 miles long and 10 miles wide.
A mountainous promontory, it rises in places to 300 feet above sea level – one of the few parts of the West African Coast where there is high land so near the sea. Where the lush green forest spills down hillsides to meet the most beautiful white sandy beaches along the Atlantic Ocean.
This 27,925 square mile (73,326 sq km) country has a population of approximately 4.5 million people. Sierra Leone is divided into four main Provinces, West, North, East and South. There are twelve Districts in the entire country.
Most of the country is underlain by rocks of Precambrian age (Archaean and Proterozoic) with a coastal strip about 50 km in width comprising marine and estuarine sediments of Tertiary and Quaternary to recent age. The Precambrian (mainly Archaean) outcrops over about 75% of the country and typically comprises granite-greenstone terrain. It represents parts of ancient continental nuclei located on the edge of the West African Craton. Regional reconnaissance mapping indicates that the Archaean basement can be subdivided into infracrustal rocks (gneisses and granitoids); supracrustal rocks (containing greenstone belts); and basic and ultrabasic igneous intrusions. The infracrustal gneisses and granitoids were formed and reworked during two major orogenic cycles, an older Leonean episode (~2,950-3,200 Ma) and a younger Liberian episode (~2700 Ma).
The Leonean orogenic episode commenced with the intrusion of a basic igneous suite (the Pre-Leonean amphibolites) and by the formation of a greenstone belt represented by the Loko Group which is now deeply eroded. The Loko Group comprises amphibolites, silimanite quartzites and ironstones. It appears to have formed on a gneiss/granitoid basement in which several granitoid bodies related to an earlier plutonicorogenic episode have been distinguished mainly in the northern part of the country. Only the main deformational phase of the Leonean orogenic episode which resulted in folds and fabrics trending east-west has been distinguished. Minor gold and cassiterite mineralization associated with portions of the Loko Group is probably related to a late Leonean granitisation event which accompanied the formation of major shear zones in the craton.
Other volcano-sedimentary sequences are preserved within the granites, gneisses and migmatites. Highly folded greenstone belts predominate in the north and central Sierra Leone. In the southeast, the metamorphic facies increases, first with the Kambui Schists and finally with the Mano-Moa Granulites. Greenstone belts of the Kambui Supergroup are believed to have been deposited upon a post-Leonean basement and accompanies by basic to ultrabasic intrusives. The Kambui Supergroup includes most of the schist belts exposed in the Sula Mountains and the Kangari, Kambui, Nimini and Gori Hills; the Marampa Group; and the two small greenstone belts of Serekolia and Sankarama in the northeast. These greenstone belts comprise a lower volcanic unit composed of ultrabasic lavas and basic lavas with pillow layers, overlain by a sedimentary unit comprising tuffs, pelitic and psammitic sediments, with conglomerate layers and ironstone bands. The greenstone belts are the principal hosts of the gold mineralisation of the country.
Other associated mineral deposits include molybdenite, columbite-tantalite and chromite. The Marampa Group, bounded on its eastern margin by a tectonic contact, is important for its iron-ore deposits and forms the upper part of the Kambui Group. Late Liberian granitoids, marginal to, and within, the Kambui Supergroup, are associated with important zones of shearing and deformation where gold, sulphide and molybdenite mineralisation has been concentrated.
The Rokel-Kasila Zone bounds the main part of the West African Craton on its west and southwestern margin in Sierra Leone, and appears to form part of a north-south orogenic belt. Within this belt, the Marampa Group appears to represent some of the oldest rocks. The Kasila Group, also considered to be part of the Kambui Supergroup, comprises a high-grade series of granulites, consisting of garnet, hypersthene and hornblende gneisses, quartzites and associated migmatites. Where eroded, signi_ cant secondary deposition of titanium minerals have formed from this unit. The Kasila Group also contains bauxite.
A late Precambrian to Cambrian sedimentary and volcanic assemblage, the Rokel River Group, was deposited unconformably on a basement complex. Deposition was probably in a fault-bounded basin of the intracratonic type along the line of the Rokel-Kasila Group following the formation of the tectonic zone at the end of the Liberian or during the Eburnean Orogeny. The Rokel River Group and the Kasila Group to the west were deformed during the Rokelide orogenic episode (~550 Ma). Deformation increased in intensity westwards.
The Saionya Scarp Group forms a small ingression into Sierra Leone in the northwest of the country, and is composed of horizontally-bedded arkoses, grits and shales with intruded dolerite sills. The group appears to belong to that part of the Gres Horizontaux of Guinea which has been classi_ ed as Ordovician, based on the discovery of the graptolites Monograptus riccartonensis and Monograptus priodon in shales near Telimele.
In Sierra Leone, the Saionya Scarp Group rests on The Rokel River Group.
Dolerite intrusions are common as dykes trending mainly east-west within the basement complex, and as extensive sills above the Rokel River Group. Kimberlite dykes and pipes follow a similar pattern in the east of the country and could also be present in the north and west.
The Freetown igneous complex forms an intrusive body on the coast, with arcuate outcrop concave towards the west. It is composed of a layered complex of gabbro, norite, troctolite and anorthosite. Platinum occurs in the gravels of many of the streams that cut the outcrops of anorthosite and anorthositic gabbro in the noritic gabbro complex of the Freetown Peninsula. The relation of this complex with the other units is obscured by the coastal veneer of Tertiary sediments of the Bullom Group which lies unconformably on the basement. Tertiary and more recent weathering has led to lateritisation across a large part of Sierra Leone, affecting mainly the greenstone belts and the extensive dolerite intrusions. The bauxite deposits formed within the Kasila Group are a result of this weathering process.


It's now Tuesday, six days after getting the biopsy result and being told to get ready for intensive treatment for relapsed high grade lymphoma. They said last week they'd confirm the results "in the next few days" and hoped to get on with intensive treatment starting within a matter of days after that. Six days later I still hadn't heard a thing. Not a confirmed result. Not an invitation for a bone marrow biopsy. Not an appointment for PICC line fitting. Just an apologetic, "sorry we haven't heard anything yet, but you are at the top of our priorities", whenever we called to chase up.
I met with my boss, at a coffee shop, yesterday and discussed handing things over. Apparently they've found someone who can take on my project management responsibilities, and he is starting next week. I will be helping out in the background, reviewing documents, giving advice, pointing in the right direction, as and when I can. But deep down I wonder how much I will end up doing. Once they get used to me not being around, discover that they can actually manage (or muddle through, so I'd like to think), realistically my contribution will fall away. My hope for continued work and income might be a little optimistic.
I worked at home yesterday and today, reviewing things and sending in comments, updating documents, and doing what I could to keep things going, listing out things for other people to follow up on and do.
And all the time it's tense, not knowing, wondering, "why is it taking so long?" What is it that means this last bit of confirmation is delaying the completion of the report? We chased the hospital 3 times today, the nurse specialist telling us each time that she's trying to get hold of the doctor, but he's in clinic or not around.
And then today, late afternoon, I finally got a call from the haematology doctor. The biopsy report had come through at the end of the previous day. It shows low-grade follicular lymphoma with no evidence of transformation to high-grade disease. He had wanted to discuss this with the Southampton consultants in the MDT call this morning, but they weren't there, and they didn't appear to be available during the rest of the day either because he'd tried to contact them in between patients at his clinics.
Obviously that is potentially going to change the treatment plan somewhat, but he couldn't tell me what the plan is until he'd talked it through with the senior doctors in Southampton. So he promised that he would see me to go through it all in the next few days.
The point they don't understand is this whole situation would be different if he'd answered that last question with, "yes there is still a small chance that it could come back as low grade. That's what they are checking. So we won't press ahead with anything until we get the final report." I would have gone back to work, not told everyone, not handed work over, and we wouldn't have told the kids so soon, nor extended family, friends, church.
As it is, I know, for instance, that an announcement went around the project team at work saying that I am stepping back from the project to concentrate on my treatment. People have started sending me notes of sympathy and best wishes. I am being essentially replaced. That's what happens in a high pressure, fast paced project. They can't afford to leave a gap in a key position like mine, and so they have to act fast.
Thankfully I had decided not to post the news on facebook to bring the rest of our friends into the picture until the news and treatment was fully confirmed. But there's no embargo, so news is filtering around.
So I've got to wait to see what's going to happen. How long have I got to wait now? Will I be called in to see the doctor tomorrow, Friday, next week? What am I supposed to do in the meantime?
I don't even know specifically what the options are now. I know one option is to do nothing, watch and wait. What are the other options? Go ahead with the stem cell transplant? R-CVP again? Given that I feel the lymphoma much worse than three years ago, and they treated me then, why wouldn't they treat me now? Would they still do R-ICE, or is that definitely off the agenda now?
And I'm not actually in the mood to let them talk about me behind my back and then tell me what is going to happen to me! I want to have my own say. I want to know whether the biopsy report is 100% categorically right now. I want to know why it was so difficult to say. Is it normal for biopsies to be so unclear that they take more than two weeks to pin down and give strange results?
I want them to understand that they can't just assume that 'watch and wait' will give me a better quality of life. They say that by giving as much time between treatments as possible they are considering one's quality of life over the long term. And if it was unequivocally low-grade each time, and it was every 5-6 years, I could go along with that.
The reality is that this disease is ruining my life. Low-grade or high-grade, the fact that every two-and-a-half years I have to go through the uncertainties of CT scan results, biopsy results, deciding what it is exactly and what the treatment should be, all means that I can't move on.
I'd started to think, in the last couple of months, about moving on in my career, finding a way to move forward once my time on the current project was finished, getting away from projects and back into senior leadership in Finance. With this kind of uncertainty how can I sell myself anywhere? I've just had to put my recruitment contacts on hold. How are they going to have confidence to sell me in anywhere now with constantly uncertain health?
I am fed up with this disease. I don't want it any more. I don't care whether medically they call it a 'chronic disease' and it can be managed over many years. I don't care if it's not life threatening at the moment. I live every day with the possibility that the life-threatening version may appear at any moment. I want rid of it!
Given that I'm mentally prepared for intensive treatment – for heaven's sake, it was supposed to be starting tomorrow – I would actually rather go on and have some treatment and give myself a chance of completely getting rid of the disease and being able to move on with my life. I'd rather give myself a chance to do other things rather than constantly being 'that guy who has cancer'.
But we shall see. There are probably more twists and turns to come.

Hi Michele! Thank you for letting me put this together. I'm going to suggest a Google and Bing campaign with re-targeting on Google and re-targeting on social in the future.
Start Proposal Review
Ensure Balloons With a Twist is generating and converting traffic through organic and paid strategies
The General Strategy Layout
General Site/SEO Check Ups and Adjustments (229.00) - After diving into SEMrush your SEO is pretty good! I'll jump into your website and do a detailed evaluation on where we stand on SEO and how we can improve.
Google & Bing Advertising Launch (319.00) - We can run Pay Per Click campaigns on keywords that you want to start ranking for but aren't currently. Your ad shows as a top search result and you pay per click. The terms and concept you may be familiar with. What is not as common is the SKAG strategy (Single Keyword Ad Groups). More information on this below.
Google Display Network Re-targeting (389.00) - This can be done on Google and Facebook, but I'd suggest starting with Google. We will target people who have taken action on your site.
Facebook Re-targeting (Future Campaign) - I'm suggesting this in the future, because you will want to import a full list of emails and phone numbers to match up with Facebook IDs (more information below)
Part II - The Solution
This section will provide a solution to generating and converting web traffic. We'll cover search, social, and re-targeting.
We can run Pay Per Click campaigns on weaker keywords. For example, we wouldn't want to bid on "Balloon Decor", because you are already #1. However, "bounce house rentals las vegas" has over 600 searches per month. We can make your ad show as a top search result and you pay per click for services you want to put a little push behind. I can cross reference what categories you'd like to promote and what keywords are workable. We can do this with a SKAG strategy (Single Keyword Ad Groups). SKAGS are ad groups designed with a one-to-one relationship between the root keyword and the ad. For example, let's say you search "Bounce houses in Las Vegas" the ad will say exactly that. The idea is to have dynamic keyword insertion for what the visitor is interested in. We can do this with 100s, sometimes 1000s, of keywords.
This strategy targets specific people with personalized messages. Whether it be email addresses, phone numbers, or even Facebook user IDs, we can pull a list of contacts from your CRM or wherever your customer data is stored, upload it directly to Facebook, and target people with ads that are relevant to where they are within your funnel. We can also run lead gen forms. Facebook and Instagram lead generation ads are designed to deliver a lead directly to our database. Facebook pre-populates the lead form with user information they already have. Because the ad does most of the work of filling in the data, users are more likely to complete the form.
Re-targeting Strategy
Similar to Facebook, we can target on Google's Display Network. We will target people who have taken action on the site. This is done through cookies. I like to breakout display campaigns according to where the visitor is at in your funnel. Many of times their actions can tell you where they are in the funnel. Here is an example
1.) Someone was on your site for less than 5 minutes
2.) Someone was on your site for more than 5 minutes
3.) Someone filled out a form, but never hired for the event

Grassland Loop Trail
Date Hiked: August 30, 2011
Distance: .4 mi (RT) - With various other paved trails in the park
Boyd Lake State Park Trails Page
Directions: From I-25, take exit 257 heading West. Continue onto Hwy 34 for 3 miles to Madison Ave. Turn North on Madison Ave and make a right on E. 37th. Follow signs to the Park entrance.
Boyd Lake State Park is certainly not a hiking park. There is a 5 mile paved trail running the length of the western side of the park and connecting to the Loveland City trail system, but this is really better for biking or running. That being said, the lake is scenic and warm for swimming in the summer, and there is a short nature trail called the Grassland Loop. This .4 mile loop trail explores a small portion of the lake side and the meadow bounding it. There is also an unofficial trail just north of the swim beach that follows the shoreline for a little while before abruptly ending.
A swim in the lake and a walk along the trails makes for a very nice summer afternoon.
Cattail Trail, Majestic View Nature Center
Majestic View Nature Center
Managing Agency: City of Arvada
Majestic View Nature Center Website (Arvada)
Directions: From Denver take I-70 west to Wadsworth Blvd. Head north on Wadsworth and turn left (west) on 68th. Turn right on Garrison and head north to the Nature Center Parking Lot.
The Majestic View Nature Center and Park is a wonderful resource to the community. The center offers all sorts of educational programs, interpretive trails, and a terrific garden focused on local flora. The nature trail is short but very peaceful. You can link to paved trails that head north into the park for a longer walk.
From the nature center head north on the paved trail and keep your eyes out for the narrow dirt trail heading down to the pond. The pond is very peaceful and has a nice wildlife viewing area. The trail skirts the eastern shore then links up to the gardens. From the gardens follow the sign to the Cattail trail. The trail will take you back south crossing Garrison Street. Enter through an opening in the fence and follow the gravel path down to a wetland area. There are interpretive signs along the way to teach you a bit about the riparian habitat. The trail then loops around and puts you back onto Garrison Street. At the name implies there are nice views here of the Front Range foothills. Walk along the street back to the nature center parking lot.
Diamond Lake, Indian Peak Wilderness
Indian Peaks Wilderness, Roosevelt National Forest
Managing Agency: U.S. Forest Service
U.S. Forest Service Trail Info and Map
Directions: This trail starts at the Fourth of July Trailhead past the town of Eldora. From Boulder, take 119, Boulder Canyon Drive, to Nederland. Head South on the Peak to Peak Highway (72) and turn west on County Rd 130 towards Eldora Ski Resort. Once you pass Eldora and the pavement ends, the road becomes a bit rougher. Take the dirt road for 5 miles to the trailhead. This road is narrow and rocky but does not require a high clearance 4WD, although some high clearance vehicle is recommended.
From the trailhead follow the Arapaho Pass trail for 1.2 miles to the Diamond Lake trail junction. The trail meanders through the forest and opens up frequently for majestic views of the Indian Peaks in the near distance. Before you even get to the Diamond Lake Trail, you are rewarded with wildflowers, creek crossings, and tumbling cascades.
At the Diamond Lake trail, drop down .5 mi to a creek crossing with a wonderful waterfall off to the right. Head back uphill switchbacking up for another mile to reach Diamond Lake. Just before the lake the trail opens up to an expansive meadow surrounded by peaks. Diamond Lake is a beautiful alpine lake with views of peaks in all directions. Relax and enjoy the wilderness until you are ready to head back the way you came. This is one of those hikes that will make you wish you could just keep on hiking deeper into the Indian Peaks, it would make for a great start to any number of backpacking options.

Myssie came back from the beach with a perfect sand dollar, a gift for Susan.
We swam back to our favorite little corner of White Bay this morning, and the sunlight was hitting all of our little fish and coral friends just right. There's a very large boulder here, about the size of a moving van. All around it, reef life has sprung up, and we have been returning year after year to this amazing underwater garden. As we swim around it, there's a narrow and shallow swim-through between boulders that you have to time just right or risk getting scraped on the rocks. It's a lesson in patience and faith in the swimming guides to get it right. As you exit the swim-through, you're treated to a dazzling blue pool filled with colorful fish and coral. It's exhilarating and achingly beautiful. We swam around the rock several times before continuing on our swim. A very large southern stingray snuck up on us, swam 4 inches beneath Heather, circled our group, then swam off into the depths. We've seen this type of behavior before from rays before. I think they're just curious.
Weather plays a big role in how we plan our days and our week. This week we've had a north swell of up to 8 feet, with the tradewinds a gusty 10-15 knots from the east-northeast. The swell, which is forecasted to subside today, kept us in the southern portion of the archipelago for the first few days of the trip, and somewhat limited our swims. The wind we can deal with easily, as there are lots of calm harbors in the lee of these splotch-shaped islands. After our morning swim, Captain Jason moved Rumba to Haulover Bay on Cooper Island. It's a beautiful and private little spot just out of sight from a large marina, where we could restock our ice stores but stay away from the noise and the lights.
Many of our guests jumped in to snorkel and splash around. A nurse shark was sighted. Lots of blue tang and tarpon. Schools of bar jacks chased little silversides right out of the water, where two frigates flew down to snack on them. A National Geographic special right off our stern. Later, we swam along the steep cliff here. Rick and Karen swam together. Miriam, after only 2 days of open water swimming, is now a sea queen, charging into the waves. One thing about all of our guests this week is that the swim very straight. I'd like to credit my brief navigation clinic this morning, but it's more likely they're just naturally good navigators.
Spontaneous marine conga line on our Cooper Island swim.
Pina Coladas greeted our guests back aboard Rumba, which I still mistakenly refer to as Promenade at least once a day. Chef Miriam somehow produced a dinner of very flavorful Shrimp n Grits. Still-warm macaroons paired nicely with a glass of wine. Yikes we are running out of Pinot Grigio!

In Vanity Fair's 2012 cover story about Scientology, contributing editor Maureen Orth reported how the organization labeled Nicole Kidman a Suppressive Person—someone "who could threaten the spiritual well-being of" Scientologists—towards the end of her marriage to Tom Cruise. When Cruise sued for divorce, Orth reported, the organization used Kidman's S.P. classification to coax the couple's two adopted children into alienating their mother. Now, in a new report that eerily mirrors that parental estrangement story line, former Scientology clergy member Joe Reaiche claims that the church "brainwashed" his four children, including Danny Masterson (That '70s Show) and Alanna Masterson (The Walking Dead), into suddenly cutting him out of their lives.
According to the report, Reaiche was "a fully qualified counselor and Operating Thetan (OT) 7—at the time the highest rank within the Sea Org—by the age of 23." He estimates that he spent over $400,000 on courses with the organization, and joined the church's clergy, called the Sea Org, after marrying fellow Scientologist Carole Masterson in 1984. Masterson had two young sons, Danny and Christopher, and Reaiche says that upon marrying, he raised both boys as his own, as well as his children with Masterson, Jordan and Alanna.
Over a decade later, Reaiche has come to terms with the estrangement.
Alex Gibney's damning new documentary about the church, Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief, features similar sad anecdotes from men and women who left the church and were subsequently shut out by family members.

New and unexpected trend: Hordes of illegal aliens are 'self-deporting'
By Ben Bowles May 8, 2019 May 8, 2019
Migrants headed toward U.S. border (Image: YouTube screen grab)
It sounds almost too good to be true, but new figures released by the Justice Department don't lie. At a time when the number of migrants seeking asylum have reached critical proportions, the number seeking to "self-deport" (to borrow a term coined by Mitt Romney) has also reached record levels.
Via Politico Magazine:
The number of immigrants [sic semper] who have applied for voluntary departure has soared since the election of Donald Trump, according to new Justice Department data obtained by The Marshall Project. In fiscal year 2018, the number of applications doubled from the previous fiscal year — rising much faster than the 17 percent increase in overall immigration cases, according to data from the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse at Syracuse University. The numbers show yet another way the Trump administration's crackdown on immigration is having an effect: More people are considering leaving the U.S., rather than being stuck in detention or taking on a lengthy legal battle with little hope of success.
Elsewhere the article notes that applications for voluntary departure must be approved by an immigration judge, adding that "the number of requests granted increased 50 percent in fiscal year 2017."
Politico's writers concede that "the increase in applications for voluntary departure could be seen as a win for the Trump administration, which has made it a goal to get undocumented immigrants out of the country and reduce the backlog of immigration cases." It is also a win for the country, whether Democrats are willing to acknowledge it or not.
Politico's writers naturally find a downside to the trend, remarking on "how broad" the Trump administration's "immigration enforcement has become, sweeping up the criminals Trump talks about alongside" people with "little to no criminal history." By this they are referring to illegals who give birth to "anchor babies," who are granted U.S. citizenship through a loose interpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment. The disposition of such people remains a troubling issue, but is one that will remain on a back burner till the more pressing problem of stemming the flow of migrants is resolved.

Joe Biden's despicable lie about a tragedy reveals a man lacking character and moral fiber


I've been keeping up with the Tom-Hanks-produced mini-series, John Adams, on HBO. It is the most compelling dramatization of the Revolutionary period that I've seen. It took time for me to warm up to Paul Giamatti's John Adams – but after the fifth installment I now consider it an achievement.
GQ's critic, Tom Carson, highlighted the most important aspect of the production: it's characters experience their lives in a modern world. The cause of American independence seems so unlikely and perilous in the opening episodes that a viewer can't help but feel a twinge of loyalty to King George. There are no halos around the heads of our Founding Fathers, no sense that they understand their role. When Jefferson, Hamilton, Washington or Adams engage in argument there is no glow upon the winning side, or certainty that any side will see victory at all. There are only two exceptions to this rule that I can recall. At the beginning to the last week's installment, John Adams is joylessly presiding over the Senate. He suggests titles for the new president, because "Neither dignity nor authority can be supported in human minds without spelndor and majesty." They include "his esteemed majesty, the president" and "his excellency, the supreme commander-in-chief." A piano and cello play groan their disapproval. Later, the cause of the French revolution is (rightly) portrayed as dangerous for the American republic. French rabble-rousers mock execute King Louis in Philadelphia to the cheers of a mob. Jefferson, in reptilian repose, urges Adams to "rejoice" at "the violent birth" of France.
On the whole, John Adams, rewards viewers with the sense that the debates of the revolutionary period are not fully over. One exchange between Hamilton and Jefferson seems more relevant to our time than anything heard on the floor of the Senate in years. History never "judges" one cause or another. The terrible truth (and the liberating truth) is that we judge these debates. Either passively by accepting the norms of our time unreflectively, or actively by pursuing one course or another.

EU should speak with one voice on Karabakh at UN level
European Friends of Armenia has issued a call upon the EU to continue its support for the OSCE Minsk Group peace negotiations amid a new UN initiative on a Nagorno-Karabakh resolution recently launched by Azerbaijan. The Azerbaijani draft resolution to be discussed at the UN General Assembly on Thursday 9 September is expected to be voted against by the three Co-Chairs of the Minsk Group, France, Russia and the USA. But according to EuFoA's sources, a common response by all EU countries is not yet clear, despite the longstanding and clear EU support for the Minsk Group.
"The OSCE Minsk Group remains the only internationally mandated format of the mediation efforts. We have come a very long way and the process is full of specific sensitivities. I hope that all EU countries will speak with one voice at the UN to reiterate the EU's support for a conclusion of the negotiations under the Minsk Group. No UN resolution should endanger those negotiations and I hope that the EU capitals and the EU High Representative Ashton are now co-ordinating their actions", commented EuFoA General Secretary Michael Kambeck.
While this initiative may seem harmless, EuFoA is very worried and considers it as dangerous for at least three reasons:
It is yet another Azerbaijani attempt to bring this conflict to a different forum, one where Azerbaijan believes to have more support, especially from friendly Islamic countries. But this ethnic conflict has never had a religious basis and neither Islamic countries nor anyone else interested in peace should now add such a religious component.
The Minsk Group Co-Chairs have stated that the steps to a peaceful resolution of the conflict are so clear and the negotiations are so advanced that they could be concluded very quickly, if there was more good-will. Being so close to the goal, a change of the forum could derail the whole process.
The resolution text singles out the Azerbaijani views, especially regarding the principle of territorial integrity. However, the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs have made it clear in their Almaty statement of 17 July 2010 that ALL the proposed principles of a peaceful solution of the conflict "have been conceived as an integrated whole and any attempts to select some elements over others would make it impossible to achieve a balanced solution". In other words, the UN draft would have to be entirely re-written or simply rejected to avoid any jeopardy of the OSCE Minsk Group negotiations.

After years of unofficial and informal discussions, it's real, sort of. The HART Communications Foundation and the Fieldbus Foundation issued a joint communiqué this morning announcing that they had officially agreed to discuss merging the two organizations.
Assuming this comes to pass, and there's nothing to indicate that it will not, this leaves the Profibus Organization as the odd man out in process automation fieldbuses. Besides Profibus, there are quite a few other standards foundations that might be brought into such an organization. But first, the HART and Fieldbus Foundations have to merge and prove that it can be done.
AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 16, 2013 — The Fieldbus Foundation and the HART Communication Foundation announced today that they have entered into discussions on the potential for merging the two organizations into a single industry foundation dedicated to the needs of intelligent device communications in the world of process automation.
Collaboration on new and existing technologies.
Fully integrated marketing strategy to advance the extensive use of digital devices.
Increased market share of digital field devices in total device market.
Q: Would the technologies and protocols of both Foundations continue to exist and evolve on their own?
A: Both the FOUNDATION fieldbus and HART specifications would continue to exist separately and evolve. Each protocol would retain and maintain its own brand name, trademarks, patents and copyrights. The proposed organization would continue to seek areas of logical harmonization just as we have with EDDL and FDI.
Q: How would the proposed organization deal with the different wireless strategies that exist?
A: Pending approval of the merger, the plan is to co-locate both organizations into a single facility as soon as it is practical.
