Clemente Aguirre Exonerated From Florida's Death Row After DNA Implicates Prosecution Witness
With newly discovered confessions and DNA evidence pointing to the prosecution's chief witness as the actual killer, prosecutors dropped all charges against Clemente Javier Aguirre (pictured, center, at his exoneration) in a Seminole County, Florida courtroom on November 5, 2018. The dismissal of the charges made Aguirre the 164th wrongfully convicted death-row prisoner to be exonerated in the United States since 1973 and the 28th in Florida. The announcement that prosecutors were dropping all charges against Aguirre came after jury selection for his retrial had already begun. The Florida Supreme Court unanimously overturned his conviction in 2016. "Mr. Aguirre was nearly executed for a crime he didn't commit," said Joshua Dubin, one of Aguirre's attorneys. "While we are overjoyed that his ordeal is finally over, the case of Clemente Aguirre should serve as a chilling cautionary tale about how dangerous it is when there is a rush to judgment in a capital case."
Aguirre was convicted and sentenced to death in 2006 for the murder of two neighbors: an elderly woman and her adult daughter. He steadfastly maintained his innocence, saying he had discovered the women only after they had been killed. He did not report the murders to authorities, he said, because he was an undocumented immigrant and feared deportation. Evidence has increasingly pointed to the victims' daughter and granddaughter, Samantha Williams, as the likely perpetrator, and an affidavit filed last week undermined Williams's alibi. DNA testing had revealed Williams's blood in several locations at the crime scene but had found none of Aguirre's blood. Williams also has reportedly confessed to the crime on at least five occasions. A sworn affidavit from the wife of Mark Van Sandt, Williams's boyfriend at the time of the crime and her key alibi witness, says that Van Sandt told his wife he saw Williams crawling out of his bedroom window on the night of the murders. Prosecutors said that they dropped charges "based upon new evidence that materially affects the credibility of a critical State witness."
Aguirre is an undocumented immigrant from Honduras, and his attorneys say they plan to file an asylum application on his behalf. Joshua Dubin said in a statement: "If there were ever a person that deserved a chance to become a United States citizen, it is Clemente Aguirre. He has been fully exonerated, so we are going to be asking the immigration judge to set a bond and allow Clemente to be released while his application for asylum proceeds." Aguirre is the third foreign national to be exonerated in the last year. Gabriel Solache was exonerated in Illinois on December 21, 2017 and Vicente Benavides was released on April 19, 2018 after nearly 26 years on California's death row. Both Solache and Benavides are Mexican nationals. While there has been one exoneration for about every nine executions in the U.S. overall, there has been one exoneration of a foreign national for every 6.17 executions of a foreign national, suggesting that foreign nationals may be more likely to face wrongful convictions and death sentences than U.S. citizens.
Aguirre was sentenced to death by the trial judge despite non-unanimous 7-5 and 9-3 jury votes for death in the two murders. 20 of the 22 Florida exonerations for which researchers have been able to determine the jury vote have involved judges imposing the death penalty despite a jury recommendation for life or after a non-unanimous jury recommendation for death. Florida now requires a unanimous jury recommendation before a judge can impose a death sentence. Florida has had more death-row exonerations than any other state.

Cygnet Law offers cohabiting couples advice
Posted on: August 20th, 2016
Cygnet Family Law is warning of complications following a relationship breakdown after the news that more Britons than ever are cohabiting without being married or in a civil partnership.
According to the latest statistics from the Office of National Statistics, the number of people aged 16 and over who were "cohabiting, never married or civil partnered" increased from 6.8% in 2002 to 9.5% in 2015.
Redcar's Cygnet Law, which specialises in Family Law, is offering free consultations for couples who are unsure about the legal ramifications of cohabitation, or want to draw up a Cohabitation Agreement.
It is also able to facilitate the adoption of a partner's child, change a home deed, change of name and adjust wills to reflect living and financial arrangements.
Janet Ford, Family Law Specialist at Cygnet Law, said: "As the number of people cohabiting has risen so has the number of disputes caused by relationship breakdowns. It may not be romantic to ask your partner to draw up an agreement in case you break up, but it will prevent a lot of heartache should you end up parting ways.
"There are also benefits of having an agreement in place whilst you are still together. It can prevent disputes and infighting by predefining responsibilities, such as who pays for what and who owns what, which can help stop resentment from building when one party feels it is carrying the other.
"Whilst the law around visitation and custody of children is fairly clear cut, the law around custody of pets is a bit murkier. Many people view their pets as their children, and as partners tend to share in responsibilities and costs of keeping a pet, ownership can become an emotional minefield if one side decides to use it as a weapon following a relationship breakdown.
"It's not all doom and gloom though. We are also able to help couples to change the ownership of their home to include a partner and become the legal guardian of their partner's children. In essence, becoming a married couple in all but name."
To book your free 30 minute consultation with a family law expert at Cygnet Law's West Dyke Road offices please call 01642 777680 or email enquiries@cygnetlaw.co.uk.

Tourists are banned from walking Italy's famous Cinque Terre coastline in flip-flops and could be fined up to £2,000 if they break the law.
The decision has been made after mountain rescue units complained of hikers who get caught out with inappropriate footwear on the craggy terrain in Liguria.
Bosses at the picturesque national park will crack down on those who do not heed their advice with fines starting at £40 and rising to £2,000.
The sum used to penalise offenders will be defined by the trouble they have caused to rescue workers, The Telegraph reported.
The crackdown comes as the tourist season is set to come into full swing next month with thousands flocking to Cinque Terre.
Last year Club Alpino Italiano - a hiking club who volunteer on the mountain - said they had to rush to help a German family trapped on the craggy peaks with a pram.
The club's head Maurizio Cattani told TGCOM24, 'These are alpine paths, tourists cannot come in slippers and without water - we need caution.
Cruise ships bring tourists from across the world, as do trains which run round the stunning coastal path.
There has been debate in recent years over whether to close off certain paths as the footfall could be damaging the unique environment.

Novel into Film
A graduate course offered by the School of Literature, Languages and Linguistics.
Code ENGL6067
Classification Transitional
Course subject English
Areas of interest English, Literature, Film
Co-taught Course
Novel into Film (ENGL6067)
Cinematic adaptations of novels have dominated the box office and film industry awards for some decades, often provoking fierce debate about their fidelity, or otherwise, to the original; discussions about how the text has been transformed, cut and downright ruined, or, conversely, how the film has 'rescued' the novel, making it seem interesting and worth reading in a new context.
This course examines a series of novels together with their film adaptations, in order to understand the differences between films and novels as modes of storytelling; examine the way the novel and its adaptation participate in debates unique to their own historical contexts; and analyse the anxieties about literary and cultural value exposed by adaptations of novels. We will ask: how do film adaptations generate new meanings from novels today? Should a film seek only to imitate the novel or can it also transform, reconceptualise and critique it? What role do the market and the audience play in generating new meanings from texts? And can the relationship between novel and film adaptation be understood as mutually dependent?
Upon successful completion of this course, students will have the knowledge and skills to:
Analyse, discuss and write critically about a range of novels and the key cultural debates in which they participate.
Analyse, discuss and write critically about a range of film and/or television adaptations of novels and the key cultural debates in which they participate.
Recognise, interpret and critically evaluate the ways in which literary texts and their visual adaptations both emerge from and contribute to their literary, historical and cultural contexts.
Understand and critically evaluate influential theories of adaptation and utilise these in analyses of adaptations.
Understand and successfully deploy a range of terms and concepts integral to literary studies.
2,000 word essay (30%) [LO 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Cecily McMillan about to receive 'John Brown' award from Caleb Maupin.
FIST — Fight Imperialism, Stand Together — is proud to have published the first issue of Red Flag, a new magazine of theory and struggle written for and by young revolutionaries. With eyewitness accounts of peoples' struggles, Marxist analysis of current events and revolutionary theory ranging from basic to advanced, it is hoped this magazine will be a tool for building the movement against imperialism, capitalism and all forms of oppression. The first issue features articles on the Ferguson, Mo., rebellion.
In New York City, FIST held a forum and discussion on Nov. 2 titled "Solidarity & struggle, the fight against capitalism." The forum brought together a discussion of many different struggles and the importance of solidarity.
Ramiro Funez, a FIST organizer, spoke on immigrant rights activism, the struggle against neoliberalism and his participation in the Solidarity Caravan to the Mexico/Texas border in October. Funez stressed the importance of uniting struggles, in particular showing solidarity with and links among the immigrant struggle, the rebellion in Ferguson and the resistance in Gaza.
Desiree DeLoach, an Occupy activist, spoke about her experiences in Cuba with the Venceremos Brigade and defended Cuba's socialist process as a model for a better world. This writer spoke on anti-imperialism, with a focus on current U.S. wars and occupations in the Middle East. Caleb Maupin closed with a talk on the importance of Marxism-Leninism in building a revolutionary movement in the 21st century United States.
Special guests Cecily McMillan, an Occupy activist and former political prisoner, and Paul Funkhouser gave updates on the important "Resist Rikers" campaign against mass incarceration.
McMillan was presented with the "John Brown Award for Opposing Injustice" from NYC FIST for her continued organizing work against mass incarceration and the horrible abuses and conditions at Rikers.

Ratings: Modern Family Returns Strong, Is Good to Its Neighbors; CSI, SVU and Minds Hit Lows
By Matt Webb Mitovich / September 27 2012, 9:11 AM PDT
The Modern Family ties are still strong, as the ABC comedy returned on Wednesday to 14.2 million total viewers and a 5.5 demo rating, dominating the night and dipping just a few percentage points from its year-ago opener.
Alas, that set up ABC's Neighbors — which TVLine readers gave an average grade of "D" — for a solid debut: 9.3 million viewers and a 3.3 rating, up sharply from the Apartment 23 and Happy Endings launches, yet demonstrating lesser retention of its lead-in (60 percent vs. about 70 percent).
Leading off the night for ABC, The Middle drew 9 mil and a 2.8, down 7 and 10 percent from its previous premiere, while a Revenge recap special placed a distant third at 10 pm.
Elsewhere on Wednesday….
* On CBS, Survivor (10.2 mil/3.0) was down 11 and 6 percent, Criminal Minds (11.6 mil/3.1) dropped 18 and 24 percent and delivered its lowest-rated premiere ever, as did CSI (down 16 and 22 percent to 10.7 mil/2.5). CSI, however, was on par with its season finale, whereas Minds… wasnt.
* Fox's The X Factor (9.45 mil/3.3) led the 8 o'clock hour in the demo, and dipped just 8 percent in the demo week-to-week.
RELATED | Michael Slezak's X Factor Recap: Call Him Maybe… Unconscious?
* NBC's Animal Practice (5.2 mil/1.4) was down sharply from its aprés-Olympics sneak preview (12.8 mil/4.1) and was down 39 percent from Up All Night's year-ago demo rating. Guys With Kids (4.8 mil/1.6) built on that lead-in, and rose more than 20 percent from its premiere. SVU's two-hour opener drew 7.1 mil and a 2.1, up a tenth in the demo from its finale but down 12 percent year-over-year to hit a premiere low.
COMING NEXT WEDNESDAY: The Neighbors moves to its regular 8:30 slot, Supernatural returns.

New Genomic Ecology of Coastal Organisms Program
UNH and UMaine partner for research
Saltmarsh sparrow (Credit: Dominic Sheron)
UNH, in collaboration with the University of Maine, has established a new research and training program to prepare graduate and undergraduate students in the region on the ecological genomics of coastal organisms. Funds for the project are provide by an NSF EPSCoR grant.
The program is fundamental for understanding links between genomes and phenomes in natural populations, or, more specifically, how genetic underpinnings shape the traits that enable tidal marsh birds to adapt and evolve in response to environmental change. It also aims to advance STEM education by training scientists in an interdisciplinary research approach that transcends biological scales, from the molecular to the ecological.
The program is led by Adrienne Kovach, assistant professor of natural resources and the environment as well as a researcher with the NH Agricultural Experiment Station, and Brian Olsen at UMaine. The collaboration brings together researchers from across northern New England and leverages previous research conducted by Kovach and her collaborators.
"Tidal marshes are natural laboratories for studying the links between genomes, phenomes and fitness of birds in the wild," Kovach says. "This project will help us better understand the genome-phenome relationship beyond knowledge gained in the lab, where the critical ecological links to the expression and fitness of tidal marsh birds within a complex, natural ecosystem are not feasible to replicate."
While the genome is the complete set of genetic material present in an organism, the phenome is the set of observable characteristics ranging from physical appearance and behavior to disease resistance and susceptibility. These characteristics are determined by both genetic makeup and environmental factors, as well as the interaction between genetic makeup and environment. Recent advances in genome sequencing technologies have opened new avenues for studying the factors and features that produce particular phenotypes in individuals and populations of organisms.
"This project will help us better understand the genome-phenome relationship beyond knowledge gained in the lab."
"These are key questions in evolutionary biology today, which can only be pursued through studies like this one of wild populations in dynamic, natural environments," Kovach says. "The project will advance understanding of long-standing questions in evolutionary biology as well as provide new insight into genetic elements and mechanisms that underlie the resilience and adaptive capacity of tidal marsh birds. The latter are important for predicting the ability of tidal marsh birds to respond to rapidly changing environments."
The scientific knowledge generated by this research will aid with biodiversity conservation in an ecosystem strongly influenced by human populations. It will be directly relevant to tidal marsh birds, which are threatened with extinction by sea-level rise, and a high priority for state, federal, and international conservation organizations. Scientists will share their research results with state, federal and nongovernmental organizations that focus on translating conservation research into on-the-ground actions.
This material is based upon work supported by NSF EPSCoR Track 2 under award number 1826777. This research leverages previous funding from the NH Agricultural Experiment Station, through joint funding of the National Institute of Food and Agriculture, U.S. Department of Agriculture, under award number 1016574, and the state of New Hampshire.
Founded in 1887, the NH Agricultural Experiment Station at the UNH College of Life Sciences and Agriculture is UNH's original research center and an elemental component of New Hampshire's land-grant university heritage and mission.
NH EPSCoR works to advance New Hampshire's competitiveness in science and engineering by strategically investing in research infrastructure, promoting education in the STEM disciplines, and fostering partnerships with technology-based businesses that enhance job creation and economic development.

A Deep Dive on a Keystone Species
Bird-Spurred


Discussion in 'General MMA discussion' started by Gallbladder, Jan 6, 2019.
the pico experiment was a shambles, but none the less I would still tune in to watch him fight.
Weird to see folks suggesting that Jones is the only fighter that clearly beats Bader. Many are saying Bader beats Gus and gives DC "a very hard time."
Bader went to the judges against Meathead an d Davis took him to a split decision, I think some folks are wearing very impressive blinders.
The reality of Bader is he caved in the big fights, usually by not being able to take a punch. The only difference with him in Bellator is that he hasn't had a big fight. No different than Kevin Lee, can't beat top half of the division yet if he drops down in level of competition he will look like a world beater.

I think Bader, today, is a better fighter than he was in the UFC, but he is also facing lesser fighters. Folks saying he would crush Gus have blinders on. Hell, folks saying he would beat Johnson are forgetting that he has a questionable chin. Johnson's skills are limited, but he hits like a sledgehammer.
I pray for Fedor to retire once and for all!!

OMG DC WOULD FU*K BADER UUUUUP. What are these casuals smoking???
The event averaged 697k viewers. For Bellator today, that is actually good. But overall, that is a very weak number. The HW tournament featured high priced fighters, while delivering weak ratings. As I have said before, without the DAZN deal, Bellator would be close to done. Had the thee main fights lasted longer, these numbers would have likely been higher.
Coker has to do some serious thinking in terms of the future of the org. I don't know how much time he has left.
Lee can't beat the top half of the division?
You mean like he's done most of his UFC career?
Felt a little Apollo Creedish. However in this movie, the Russian got killed instead.
Oddly, my DVR did not record the event. It thought it did, but it recorded Creed instead. Two questions.
1) Was this intentional themed programming?
2) Did Paramount switch to broadcasting West Coast live (my dvr started recording @ 9 Pacific)?
I think they are ok with those numbers, and reason why is because from the very beginning, Coker accepted the fact that Bellator would not compete with the UFC. Coker was fine with being number 2.
Others on here are saying they watched it on Paramount. But whether it was the main event or the prelims that was on Paramount, my DVR recorded based on the channel guide which said it would have the same time delay that previous Bellator events had. But West Coast Paramount was showing Creed at 9 PM Pacific. So if any of the fights were on Paramount, that means there was no time delay this time.
I watched it on the paramount app on my fire stick. Logged into my cable provider with a friends username. Just the main card though. Couldn't find a way to watch that other than the dazn app.
I doubt Paramount is ok with those numbers. They are spending more than ever before, with lower ratings, which means lower ad revenue. Bellator is essentially programming for Paramount. If it does not draw enough ad revenue, they will cancel it.
At first I thought you were serious but than realized you can't be serious. I don't believe he has beaten anyone in the top 5. But since the rankings are misleading I will say more than 5 lw's beat Lee so technically he should never be considered a top 5 lw. Same with Diaz, he is overrated and has horribly weak tdd and slow hands.
Top half of the division ain't the top 5, son. More like top 50.
Only 3 light weights have beaten Lee and you said in yer post Lee couldn't beat "THE TOP HALF OF THE DIVISION"
Now and if you mean half the top ten then he11 even that's debatable.
Lee has fought nothing but killers his entire UFC run and he gets better Every fight.

Many families have dogs as pets, and sometimes he or she may have been around long before the family even began to grow. If you have a dog who has been an 'only child' for quite some time, or even if they are a fairly new addition, you may want to read a few tips on how t make bringing home the baby a bit smoother. Training and preparation are the most important focuses, especially for a dog that has always been put first. Once preparation is done, you then need to focus on the here and now, introducing the baby! Once everything goes smoothly with meeting baby, you can then proceed to focusing on how to deal with your mobile baby around the family pet.
First off, it is always best to be proactive. If you presently have a dog and know that you will be expecting, start training as soon as possible. Training is one of the most important aspects of preparing your dog for the new arrival. The earliest stages of training can be difficult and the best recommendation is to seek training from someone who is experienced and already skilled in this area. Training requires a lot of structure, not just for your dog, but for you as well! You will need to know exactly which commands you will be using and exactly what you would like to expect as a response from your dog.
As well, remember that practice makes perfect, and that habits take time to form! When training, focus on continuous practice over a period of time, use consistency and make it routine. It may seem as though your dog learns his or her new skills overnight, but they must be practiced over a period of time in order to become reliable responses. By the time the baby is born, your dog will know exactly what is expected of him or he, and you won't even think twice when using your commands.
Once your dog has been thoroughly trained in a calm/distraction free environment, you can then add some excitement into the mix! See if his or her training has stood the test of time, and allow a little bit of the unexpected. Exposing your dog to excitement or distractions while giving commands can help to strengthen his or her responses. Use a reward based system (see below) in order to obtain your goals!
Furthermore, proper handling of your pet should be practised through other members of the family as well (older children can be involved in this). Training does not just involve following orders, it is based on the formation of a relationship with the dog and the other members of the household. If these additional family members expect to put the dog's new training to use, then they must put in some valuable time with him or her as well.
-Command word for teaching your dog to drop/ give you what he or she has in his or her mouth.
2/Positive Reinforcement: A Reward Based System!
Using rewards such as treats will help you to communicate to your dog at the exact moment they perform the desired task. This helps to positively reinforce their training, and creates a good connection between training and the new baby. The reason that food is such a great reward is because you can deliver it in pretty much any situation, even while taking care of the new baby. Remember to make sure though that these treats are small in size, and follow any of your dog's dietary restrictions (ex: low calorie, hypoallergenic etc…).
You will need to plan exactly how you would like your home set up in order to keep watch on both your dog AND baby. Most experts agree that babies/preschool children should never be left unattended with any dog for any length of time. Depending on the amount of supervising adults in the home, you may need to set up gates or barriers to keep your dog in or out of certain areas. When the baby starts walking you will also need to figure out a way of preventing him or her from intruding on the dog's space. Sometimes one baby gate will work, other times you may need to stack baby gates to prevent jumping, or you may need to investigate other barrier solutions all together.
Apply any expected changes into your routine before the baby is born. This premature change in routine will help to prevent your dog from associating possibly stressful changes with the new baby. You can even go as far as carrying around a baby doll and role playing certain baby care tasks (such as feeding, diaper changes etc) with your dog present. Use a reward based system in order to train your dog how to behave properly in these new situations.
If you have any doubts or concerns regarding your dog's behaviour, you can consider contacting a behavioural specialist. This person can help to professionally evaluate your dog's behaviours, and practice training techniques which could make valuable improvements to even the gentlest of dogs. If you are unsure how to find a behavioral specialist, you can ask your veterinarian or contact us at the Lansdowne Animal Hospital for some great advice!
Have someone bring home an article (clothing, blanket, stuffed toy etc…) with the baby's scent on it. You can practice role playing with this item in scenarios of baby care once again, this new scent will shake things up for your dog. See how he or she reacts and make sure to reward accordingly.
When the baby actually does come home, have the new mom greet the dog on her own initially (without baby). When she does bring the baby into the home, try to keep things as relaxed and as low key as possible. Make sure to stick to your already established routines so that your dog knows that these reassuring habits are still in place.
TIP: Try rewarding your dog in the presence of the new baby in order to create a positive association with him/her.
The most important aspect for the care of crawling infant's, is to ensure that your child is supervised on a constant basis; never leave your child and dog unattended. Even the easiest going of dogs has his or her limits, and as parents, we need to teach our children not to push these limits. Once your child is mobile and is capable of pushing, pulling, poking, sitting on etc- your dog, you will need to make sure that this doesn't happen! Not only will you be teaching them respect, but you could be preventing an accident waiting to happen.
We hope that you feel more confident in introducing your pet dog to your new arrival. Whether you have had your dog for a short period of time, or many years, please remember that it is always a good idea to touch up on training. In order to reinforce training techniques, rewarding your pet is extremely helpful; using treats as instant gratification will let your dog know the exact moment of good behaviour on their part. As well, remember that setting up your home appropriately and starting a new routine ahead of time will help your dog drastically with the new changes to come. If unsure what to do, or if there are any concerns, it is best to consult a behavioural specialist. The training they teach can be priceless, as well as valuable for the moment the actual baby arrives home and/or when he or she becomes mobile and is capable of encroaching on your dog's space. Make bringing home baby a happy moment for the entire family, canine counterparts included!

A pay deal between Brisbane City Council and unions appears to have been reached, with average workers on $65,000 set to get an extra $55 a fortnight.
Workers would also receive an additional 130 days in their sick leave credit, replacing the council's existing income protection scheme.
The new deal, which followed talks between the council, unions and the Queensland Industrial Relations Commission, has added an additional $5.20 per fortnight on the council's previous offer.
That followed a six-month industrial relations tussle between the various unions represented at the council and City Hall itself.
Brisbane's 26 councillors have yet to learn the ruling of an independent pay tribunal, which could add $57,481 per year to their base salaries at a cost to ratepayers of an additional $1.5 million per year.
The QIRC on Monday recommended that unions accept the revised offer from the council to cover its 8000 staff.
The revised offer was for a 2 per cent wage increase from July 1, 2013, until 12 months after the new pay deal is finalised.
It would then increase to 2.2 per cent for the next 12 months, followed by another 2.2 per cent.
The extra 0.2 per cent increased wage offer in years two and three of the agreement is equivalent to an extra $5.20 a fortnight to the council's original offer.
The council had originally offered flat 2 per cent wage increases, plus a one-off payment of $400 if absenteeism rates were improved.
Services Union assistant secretary Neil Henderson said the union, which covered about 30 per cent of council staff, would recommend staff accept the revised offer.
"It is a slight increase over what Brisbane City Council had been offering," Mr Henderson said.
"But is the deal for the times we live in, I guess."
Mr Henderson said existing staff would get a one-off credit to their sick leave balance of 130 days, up from 90 days, and will accrue 15 days per year.
"New starters will accrue their sick leave at 15 days per annum," he said.
This scheme will replace the council's income protection scheme.
"We will be recommending to our members that they support it," Mr Henderson said.
The council had argued its budget was set and could not afford higher wages.
Mr Henderson said a second ballot of staff had given unions the right to take protected industrial action, however Mr Henderson said he would not be recommending this take place.
He said most unions, except the ETU and CFMEU, would accept the wage offer.
"It is not reflective of what is being offered elsewhere in the country, but certainly in Queensland, wage increases are hard work," Mr Henderson said.
"When I look at what we got there, I compare and contrast it with the state public service position which is 2.2 per cent and forced redundancies.
"And when you take into account we forced a 'no forced redundancy' commitment from the council, it's a great outcome."
The draft agreement will be published to employees this week and information sessions will be conducted by council staff.
"But the feedback we have been receiving from our members is that this is a good place to finish," Mr Henderson said.

I was invited down to the Delray Beach ITC this past week by the great Chris Kennedy of Golfsmith. My plan was to do some book signings and create a buzz in Florida. Yes, I did sell quite a few books, but I did some other things that I feel were more valuable.
I talked to everyone I could at the tournament about my book, vendors, tennis directors, coaches, pro players and fans. I gave a talk at the USTA Florida Member Appreciation Day, donated signed copies of my book to the USTA, Match Point Ministries, First Serve, and the tournament itself. I also observed a women's team match and spoke to some of the players.
Nobody's going to ring your doorbell. You have to take action. Ideas are great, but the follow-through is better. Instead of "hoping" that you will become successful, take the necessary steps to increase the chances that you do.
Chris Kennedy of Golfsmith called me yesterday to tell me that people are still talking about my book in Florida.
It's 4AM and I am getting ready to hop a flight to Florida for the Delray Beach ITC (International Tennis Championships). Mardy Fish, Lleyton Hewitt, Tommy Haas, Marcos Baghdatis and the Bryan Brothers will be playing in this great tournament. I will not be playing but I will be promoting my book and signing copies at the Golfsmith Booth. In addition to creating a buzz in sunny Florida, I plan on meeting some key tennis people in Florida, many of which are part of the USTA and USPTA, as well as possibly giving a talk to local student-athletes.

It is time again for Workbasket Wednesday, so link up below or share on social media with the hashtag #WorkbasketWednesday or #wbasketWed on Twitter.
Some of you may have seen my post on Instagram and Facebook with the picture from Party City where I spent entirely too much time yesterday. Last month at the Dollar Tree I found these great little containers you'll see below with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Frozen characters on them, but I couldn't find anything to put in them for the students to sort. So, I put them away in my pile of worksystem hoarding box for when I found something that would work with it. So this week I headed out to Party City, which I knew had a bunch of stuff for Disney and other characters. Even better, they do have a bunch of stuff and it is CHEAP!
It got me started thinking about something I haven't talked about on the blog before. All of us have special interests of movies or characters we like. Some of our students' interests are stronger than others. One way to help them engage independently is to incorporate those interests into the tasks. Sometimes we an use those tasks as the final task to motivate them to get through the system and other times it just pays to incorporate them throughout the system. It's easy to find many of our kids' interests at the Dollar Store, Party Stores and other places. You can also use pictures from DVD covers, magazines, and sales flyers. Here are some tasks I developed from the gold I found in the last couple of months.
Yes, I am that lady who is standing in the toy aisle at Walgreens or the checkout line at Walmart without any kids looking at the kids stuff. It's an affliction or an addiction or something. I was having a tough time finding something to go with these adorable containers with TMNT and Frozen decals on them. Then I ran across these pom pom balls–mini kooshes really and they were the perfect colors. And you can buy them separately so you only get as many as you need for about 30 cents a piece. So a simple task would be to sort by the colors of the containers.
Then I found these crayons. These would be a tougher task because they have to be able identify the logos and patterns or writing on the crayons to discriminate between them and sort them. But if you are working on students being able to discriminate more complex patterns this would be a good task. The crayons were about 40 cents for a pack of 4 and they fit perfectly in these little containers! I love these containers because students also work on opening and closing them at the beginning and end of the task so it incorporates that packaging component into the task.
For the non-princess lovers in your lives, there are always the Avengers and Spiderman. Same crayons and I just used some baskets from my hoarding box for the students to sort them. Then I used the crayon boxes as cues for which crayons should go where. The Spiderman crayons had webs and a spider on them while the Avenger's had the A symbol along with Captain America's shield.
And finally, these were all materials I got from the Dollar Tree originally (actually the Frozen stickers may have come from Michael's). Same great containers and I just put stickers on paper and laminated them. The students then sort the characters.
So, please link up your your posts below to share in Workbasket Wednesday by following the directions below. Or just share on Instagram (tag me at @autismclassroomnews) or Twitter (tag me @reeveautism) or Facebook–just tag @AutismClassroomNews. Make sure to use #WorkbasketWednesday and tag me so I can share your pictures. I love to share all different kinds of tasks across social media so we can all learn from and be inspired by each other.
In the meantime, what are some of the most interesting interests you have come across to use for tasks for students? Share in the comments!

You are here: Home / Columns / 2018 Columns / October 29, 2018: Bugging Junior E. Lee About the Upcoming Election
October 29, 2018: Bugging Junior E. Lee About the Upcoming Election
As a public service, I want to share with you the latest political data in order to help you decide for whom to vote in next week's elections. If you have already voted, hopefully it will confirm the wisdom of your decision or let you bang your head against the wall for being such a dimwit.
This means mining the political expertise of one Junior E. Lee, general manager of the Yarbrough Worldwide Media and Pest Control Company, located in Greater Garfield, Georgia. Junior is not only one of the nation's most highly respected political analysts, he is also a pest control professional. That is a rare combination. Neither Rush Limbaugh nor that guy on MSNBC who looks like the Pillsbury Dough Boy can make such a claim.
One of Junior E. Lee's most important contributions to the refinement of political analysis has been the creation of Round or Square Polls, whose motto is "If you provide the dough, we'll cook the results." It has become the model for most all other polling organizations in the U.S., plus-or-minus five percent.
When I got Junior on the phone it was obvious he was very busy. He said he was not only analyzing the voting trends of people who own dogs between the ages of 18 to 45 (the owners, not the dogs) and are female (the dogs, not the owners), he was also loading up the truck with Permethrin to go spray Arveen Ridley's barn for ticks.
I apologized for getting him at such an inopportune time but told him I was feeling the heat to get the latest political analysis to my readers before they got it from suspect sources like the national television networks, the cable news channels, the New York Times or Farmer's Almanac.
Junior said he certainly understood my concerns, except he thought Farmer's Almanac played things pretty straight even though they spend too much time talking about wooly worms being an indicator of future weather trends. He said they should leave wooly worm discussions to pest control professionals like himself.
I quickly steered the conversation back to next week's elections because if you get Junior started on wooly worms, nematodes and the like, you can't hush him up.
I asked Junior about the governor's race. It seems that Democrat Stacey Abrams and Republican Brian Kemp are running neck-and-neck at this point. He reminded me that a Libertarian is also running, although he has about as much chance of winning as a wooly worm does learning to play chess. I will admit that Junior E. Lee's analogies can be a bit weird at times. I think he has inhaled a bit too much malathion over the years.
As for the governor's race, Junior says it will be won by those in the middle since most of the wingnuts on either end of the political spectrum have already cast their ballots.
What constitutes the middle, I asked? Junior says it is mainly people who don't want illegal aliens being allowed to carry guns on our college campuses or in our Houses of Worship. I said I would have to think about that one. For example, I knew Baptists weren't keen on illegal aliens but that they liked packing heat most everywhere because they consider it a "sanctity of life" issue – forget that pesky "Thou Shalt Not Kill" commandment. Junior reminded me that we were talking about folks in the middle, not Baptists. Ah, yes. That's why the man gets the big bucks.
If Abrams wins, Junior predicts she will move the governor's office to Hollywood where most of her financial supporters are located. On the other hand, if Kemp wins, he says look for Hooterville to be the new state capitol and Jed Clampett to be his chief of staff. I hope he is just pulling my leg.
Junior said he needed to wrap up the conversation. After he finished at Arveen Ridley's place, he needed to drive over to Aunt Flossy Felmer and take another peek in her drawers. He says he is looking for fire ants. I don't believe that for a minute. Frankly, I think Junior spends too much poking around Aunt Flossy's drawers but I don't say anything. Finding a highly respected political analyst who is also a pest control professional is not easy.
In closing, Junior E. Lee joins me in urging you to please vote on Nov. 6. It is both a privilege and a responsibility. About that, we are not kidding.

Recently 7-Eleven celebrated its 45th birthday with free Slurpees. Those Slurpees were always so refreshing on a hot day, albeit just a little sweet for my taste.
I decided to make my own Slurpee in honor of this classic drink. An adult Slurpee using frozen blueberries and tea. And spiked with just enough booze.
This isn't quite the slushy texture of the real Slurpees, but it doesn't need to be. It's cold, refreshing and blueberry-riffic! A perfect Fat and Happy summer cocktail.
Add all the ingredients to a blender, blend on high until it's all combined and the blueberries are completely chopped up, about 30 seconds.
Pour into chilled glass and enjoy immediately.
Fat and Happy Food Blog Tips and Techniques: I buy organic, fresh blueberries whenever they are on sale and freeze them. Simply clean, lightly dry on a paper towel and then place in a ziplock bag. Lay the bag flat in the freezer until frozen.

EU appeals to shared values to tempt Taiwan's chip firms
Reuters | Posted: Oct. 14, 2021, 6:37 a.m. | Updated: Oct. 14, 2021, 8:33 a.m. | 2 Min Read
TAIPEI (Reuters) - The European Union and Taiwan are democracies with shared values and are natural partners when it comes to semiconductors, a senior EU official said on Thursday, making a pitch for the island's key chip firms to invest in the bloc.
Tech powerhouse Taiwan, home to companies like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd (TSMC), has become front and centre of efforts to resolve a shortage of chips that has shut some auto production lines around the world and whose impact is now being felt in consumer electronics too.
While TSMC is building a $12 billion chip fabrication plant in the U.S. state of Arizona, it has given no suggestion of interest in a similar facility in Europe.
Speaking at a virtual Taiwan-EU investment forum, Sabine Weyand, director general of the European Commission's trade section, said the impact of the chip shortage on auto makers was a reminder of how essential chips are.
"With the European Chips Act, Europe will step up its efforts to increase production, but we also want to cooperate with our like-minded partners including Taiwan," she said, referring to legislation proposed by the commission last month.
"Not only because Taiwan excels in the production of semiconductors, but also because technology is ultimately a question of security. We want the EU's digital agenda to be shaped together with our like-minded partners and according to our common values."
Neither the EU nor its member states have formal diplomatic ties with Chinese-claimed and democratically-ruled Taiwan.
Taiwan's government is keen to sign a Bilateral Investment Agreement with the EU, which first included Taiwan on its list of trade partners for such a deal in 2015, the year before President Tsai Ing-wen first became Taiwan's president, but has not held talks with Taiwan on the issue since then.
Tsai told the same forum that Taiwan, with its democracy, freedom and respect for human rights, was a "natural" partner for the EU.
"Starting talks on a bilateral investment agreement can be the beginning of an even more concrete partnership for democracies like us."

Starred Review in Publishers Weekly!
July 10, 2019 Bob Batchelor
The Bourbon King: The Life and Crimes of George Remus, Prohibition's Evil Genius received a starred review in Publishers Weekly, one of the essential publications in the publishing industry.
"Larger-than-life characters take the reins of this story, a rip-roaring good time for any American history buff or true-crime fan."
"Batchelor's action-packed narrative both entertains and informs with its tales of the corruption of President Warren G. Harding's attorney general, the bootlegging trade, and the public's oscillating views of Remus and Prohibition in general."

New Home-Who'll Follow? or Glimpses of Western Life
by Kirkland, Caroline M., Zagarell, Sandra A.
Provider: LightningBooks Contact
Shipping: Standard, Expedited (tracking available)
Comments: Fast shipping! All orders include delivery confirmation.
Publisher: Rutgers University Press
Kirkland, Caroline M., Zagarell, Sandra A.
Set in the frontier of Michigan in the 1930s, A New Home is the first realistic portrayal of western village life in the United States. Based on Caroline Kirkland's own experiences--and written from a woman's perspective--it narrates with a keen eye and wit the absorbing story of the establishment of the village of Montacute, Michigan. A New Home is a vivid contribution to a new kind of narrative developed during the antebellum period, ethnographic fiction. Kirkland highlights the importance and the drama of local practices and everyday life in Montacute. She traces the way two groups of settlers slowly adjust to each other--the old hands and the newcomers from the East. Dramatizing differences of class and culture, she also shows how the groups finally form a genuine community and a new, diverse culture. Kirkland also gives enthographic fiction an original twist: she satirizes the provincialism and the rigidity of both groups of settlers. After writing A New Home, Kirkland became a professional literary woman, working as an editor as well as a writer. In her introduction, Sandra Zagarell explores the implications of Kirkland's writing and professional career for our understanding of women, writing, and the world of literature in antebellum America.Kirkland, Caroline M. is the author of 'New Home-Who'll Follow? or Glimpses of Western Life ', published 1990 under ISBN 9780813515427 and ISBN 0813515424.

La Orden de Canadá (en inglés: Order of Canada; en francés: Ordre du Canada) es la orden civil canadiense de mayor rango y el principal punto de referencia del sistema canadiense de honores. Se otorga a aquellas personas que son un ejemplo del lema en latín de la orden, tomado de la Epístola a los Hebreos 11:16, desiderantes meliorem patriam, que significa "Ellos desean una patria mejor".

La Orden fue creada en 1967, coincidiendo con el centenario de la Confederación Canadiense. El sistema de orden con tres niveles fue creado como la pertenencia a un grupo que reconoce los logros por méritos destacados o servicios distinguidos por parte de canadienses, mediante contribuciones a lo largo de su vida en cada campo de actividades, y cuya contribución ha sido muy relevante para Canadá, como también esfuerzos realizados por personas no-canadienses que han contribuido mediante sus acciones a que el mundo sea mejor. El monarca canadiense, hoy en día Carlos III del Reino Unido, es Soberano de la orden, y el Gobernador General en ejercicio es su Canciller. Los candidatos a ser aceptados en la orden son seleccionados por un consejo asesor y son formalmente designados por el Gobernador General; hacia enero del año 2020, 7.212 personas habían sido aceptados en la Orden de Canadá, incluyendo músicos, políticos, artistas, atletas, personalidades de la televisión y estrellas de cine, benefactores, entre otros. Desde 1994, los miembros no honorarios son los únicos ciudadanos comunes que están habilitados a tomar el Juramento de aceptación de la ciudadanía.

Grados
Existen tres grados o niveles de la Orden de Canadá, en orden de precedencia son: Compañero (CC), Oficial (OC) y Miembro (CM). Cada uno de los tres niveles poseen iniciales identificatorias que sus miembros están autorizados a utilizar junto con su nombre. El sistema contempla la posibilidad de ser promocionado de un nivel a otro, aunque esto por lo general no ocurre antes de haber transcurrido cinco años desde el nombramiento inicial. Por ejemplo el director de películas Denys Arcand fue ascendido de Oficial a Companion.

VANCOUVER (miningweekly.com) – Gold bug Mickey Fulp does not expect the gold price to break out this year, bar any substantial geopolitical event that upsets the state of the global economy.
During a recent mining conference held in Vancouver, the 'Mercenary Geologist' told Mining Weekly Online that he expects gold to test new lows over the coming summer months, which has traditionally been a soft market for the precious metal.
On May 15, gold slipped below its psychological level of $1 300/oz, and closed below its 200-day moving average, something it had resisted doing five times over in five months. By breaking the five-month support, it points to a bearish outlook for the investment metal, as rising interest rates and a stronger greenback nix the wind from gold's sails.
Fulp noted that gold traditionally has a strong inverse correlation with the dollar – when the dollar is strong, gold tends to soften, and when the world's leading reserve currency falls, gold tends to pick up steam.
He pointed out that, at 20 days before the November 2016 US election, there was no inverse correlation at all. Same for the 100-day mark, and the 200-day mark before the elections – no inverse correlation.
But just 20 days following Trump's presidential victory, Fulp pointed out that a strong inverse correlation emerged once more, which for the most part, has been ongoing ever since, and in fact gets emphasised every time Trump makes a controversial statement or decision.
Fulp attributed gold's recent slump to euro weakness.
"The gold price chart has been marked by higher highs and lower lows since November 1, but those higher highs are in question at the moment. All the world's economies are growing in relative coordination at present, despite the 10% market correction we saw earlier in the year. Also, there is relatively low geopolitical risk at the moment, which provides little impetus for the gold price to rise in its traditional role as a store of value in times of turmoil," he explained.
