Bill Maher Talks About 'The View' And CNN's Jeff Zucker, Calls For Questioning Covid-19 Authority

You are allowed to disagree, Bill Maher argued during his Friday Real Time on HBO. And he brought up two instances of news this week from the world of television to underline his point.
Maher talked about Whoopi Goldberg's crisis and suspension from The View because of her analysis of what the Holocaust was really about. Maher, who has been targeted by Goldberg in the past, said he was not in favor of her cancellation, "as much as I disagree with her crazy statements."
CNN's Don Lemon Gives Tearful Jeff Zucker Eulogy To Open His Show
'Euphoria' Renewed For Season 3 By HBO
AT&T's John Stankey And Discovery's David Zaslav Avoid Talking Details Of Jeff Zucker's Exit: "Unfortunate Set Of Circumstances"
He pointed out Goldberg's show is called THE View, emphasis on "The." That's the problem in America," he said. "There is one true opinion, and everyone else can go sit in the corner."
He pointed out a time where Goldberg defended quarterback Michael Vick, who was suspended from football for his role in a dog fighting ring. Goldberg was a rare defender of Vick when that situation emerged, pointing out that his southern heritage and cultural upbringing normalized such behaviors.
"I don't agree with her, but we grew up in two different worlds," Maher acknowledged. "The answer is not to make them sit in a corner." He added that the request that Goldberg use her suspension to "reflect and learn" is "so insulting." There is no "impact" from her words, he said. "There are not neo-Nazis waiting for the green light from a lady on The View.
Panelist Katherine Mangu-Ward, the editor-in-chief of Reason Magazine and co-host of The Reason Roundtable podcast, was supportive of Maher's views. "Not everything has to be for everybody," she said. She added that The View is a particularly weird place. "It's not called "The Facts."
Johann Hari, author of Stolen Focus: Why You Can't Pay Attention — And How To Think Deeply Again, also decried silencing others. "We don't need free speech when we're right. We need it when we're wrong."
Maher also brought up former CNN President Jeff Zucker, who resigned from that news organization this week, allegedly for failure to disclose an affair.
"He is 56 and having a relationship with a 49-year-old who is also an executive – and he had to resign over that? I don't underand that. "
Mangu-Ward agreed. "I would be delighted to never know anything about the sex life of CNN C-suite," she said. But she also brought up that the resignation may have been tied to anchor Chris Cuomo's problems. The desire to keep things quiet may be tied to Zucker's failure to disclose. "Let's look into that," she said.
Maher had a rejoinder."In the old days, this was called discretion."
Earlier in the show, Maher had a one-on-one with Congressman Ro Khanna, who represents California's 17th district and is author of the new book, Dignity in a Digital Age: Making Tech Work for All of Us.
Khanna defended the Democrats economic message, which he said was focused on providing digital jobs opportunities in areas outside of Silicon Valley, New York, and Austin.
Wrapping up his show, Maher took a cynical look at the mixed message on the pandemic being delivered by some in government and health officials. That's even as certain leaders appear maskless at public events, and rules abound about wearing masks in restaurants while walking to your table, but not while eating or drinking, all of which defy common sense.
While some other countries are scaling back and relaxing pandemic protocols, certain areas of the US refuse to budge. "We are afraid to identify threats by likelihood," Maher said. "When people ask me why are you so skeptical of what medical professionals tell us? I've seen this before," he said, citing the HIV panic in 1987, wherein some predicted a wave of hetrosexual transmission that never materialized.
Maher called for an end to fear campaigns, pointing out that the likely targets for Covid-19 health problems – the elderly, the obese, the unvaccinated – were not his responsibility at this point.
"Doesn't it make more sense to let the rest of us go back to living normal lives?" he asked. "There will always be another variant."
Maher called for a return to "something like normal," and pointed out the various times the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have delivered wrong messages.
"We've had this problem in medicine for a long time," he said. "The same people who always say get a second opinion want only one in the public debate. They have not earned the right to claim monopoly status."

Posts Tagged 'IPSO'
This man was denied a job as a sheriff's deputy just because he has HIV. Now he's suing.
Wednesday, November 1st, 2017
A Louisiana man has filed a federal lawsuit against the Iberia Parish Sheriff's Office (IPSO) for allegedly discriminating against him in 2012. According to the complaint, filed last week by Lambda Legal, IPSO was prepared to hire Liam Pierce as a deputy sheriff, but allegedly opted not to after learning that Pierce has HIV.
"It was like a punch to the gut," Pierce, 46, told ThinkProgress in a phone interview. "It really frustrated me that for all the wonderful things that are here in Louisiana and all the wonderful people we have, we still have people that are not appropriately educated with HIV, how it's transmitted, what the risks are, and what isn't risky."
As the complaint recounts, two days after Pierce had his in-person interview with IPSO in March, 2012, Captain Rickey Boudreaux told him that was going to be hired by the department, pending a medical examination. That examination, completed two weeks later, found that Pierce indicated "no significant abnormalities or medical findings," with all physical findings "within normal limits." But it did state that he is HIV-positive. Two days after submitting the medical examination, Pierce received a letter from IPSO indicating that he would not be hired.
"It's clear on the medical evaluation: The only thing negative was the HIV status," Pierce said, adding that a friend's contact at the department relayed to him that he wasn't hired because he failed the medical. He immediately knew it was because of his HIV status. "Anybody with a simple amount of education is able to see right and wrong and this is plainly wrong. It's no different than discriminating against somebody because they have diabetes or because they have cancer. You can't discriminate against that. It's wrong."
Indeed, the U.S. Department of Justice has resources dedicated specifically to educating the public about how discrimination on the basis of HIV status is a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Pierce has a long history of service to others. He's been an EMT, a paramedic, a firefighter, and a police officer. It was actually Hurricane Katrina that brought him to Louisiana in the first place; he ditched his old job after securing authorization to join the first-responder recovery efforts. He was hired full-time shortly thereafter by a local agency. To this day, he still teaches various public safety courses, including firearm safety, first aid, CPR, and — ironically — blood-born pathogens. His enthusiasm for helping others even convinced his husband to take an interest in firearm safety and they now teach the classes together.
After his HIV diagnosis in 2003, Pierce said, "I actually spent my days and nights reading everything I could"; he even began doing HIV education, including services specifically intended to help others who have just learned of their own HIV diagnoses.
"When you're first diagnosed, a lot of people feel it's the end of the world, and you quickly realize it's not the end of the world," he said. "It's a condition, like any other condition, that requires medication, medical care, and also self-care."
Because of his role in medical education, Pierce is particularly attuned to people's misconceptions about HIV. When he first disclosed his status to people, he remembered many were afraid even if he'd cough or sneeze. The biggest misconception he's encountered is that many people don't understand the difference between HIV and AIDS.
"People think that once you have AIDS you always have AIDS, and that's not the case anymore. I've known people who have had a CD4 count of two and have come back because they changed their lifestyle; they started taking care of themselves," he said. "People don't understand that the two are very different." (A CD4 count refers to white blood cells and the health of a person's immune system; an uncompromised immune system has a CD4 count of 500 or higher.)
With this lawsuit, Pierce recognizes that he now has an even bigger platform with which to help others better understand the virus; specifically, he said he hopes more people embrace a "willingness to empathize" with people living with HIV. "We don't need people to feel sorry for us, we don't need people to treat us any different, but understand the facts and not just the rumors," he said.
He added that he's had reservations about the lawsuit, recognizing that it could open him up to future discrimination, but he still believes it's the right thing to do.
"I've always been very private about my HIV status," he said. "I've always tried to make it the smallest part of my life. By standing up, I might be able to help others. And by standing up, I might be able to change the way things are done here in Louisiana and maybe give someone else an opportunity to not have to go through what I went through."
IPSO told ThinkProgress that it does not comment on pending litigation.

As a leader & director of UX for numerous tech firms, I've reviewed thousands of portfolios. It's a sometimes painful process which has left me believing few designers truly understand just how important their portfolio is. Your resume tells a story… what you've been up to, what skills you possess, but your portfolio is by far the most important piece of the design puzzle. It's what makes you stand out in a very competitive market.
Your portfolio is intended to showcase your very best work. Keep it to 10 pieces or less. Dumping in screenshots of that Wordpress site you designed for your brother-in-law will only hurt. Leave it out and focus on your best stuff.
Do your homework. Learn everything you can about the person or company you're presenting to. Determine what types of work make the most sense or would be most appealing. Leave the rest out.
Select pieces that showcase your strengths or specialties. If you're particularly great at wireframing, include samples that demonstrate that skill. If you've never had any formal training in graphic design, don't try to impress with your killer Bryce 3D skills.
Technically not part of your portfolio, but a designer's resume should be well designed. Keep it short (1 page… really… 1 page) and leave out all the big, fancy words you think I want to hear. Be approachable, direct, and stick to the facts.
Is your portfolio site well designed? Does it complement or compete with your work? Does it demonstrate a good understanding/use of color, fonts, and layout? Is it easy to navigate? If I can't figure out how to use it, I'm gone.
It's OK to show static screenshots, but even better if you include live links to sites and apps you've designed. If you list web dev or prototyping skills, you best include links and the ability for me to look at source code.
Hosting your samples across multiple portfolio sites is annoying. I can't tell you how many times I've lost interest in a portfolio simply because I got lost clicking around popups or couldn't figure out how to get 'home'.
Don't assume I'll understand your work. Include short explanatory text that describes the project, any constraints, and your specific role (especially if it was a team effort). Yes, I notice when you say 'we' instead of 'I'.
Show examples of your design process . Sketches, storyboards, wireframes, and mockups help me understand how you think, how you attack a problem, & how you deal with design complexity.
Good designers show fanatical attention to details. Broken links or misspellings are a deal breaker. No exceptions.

The Collaborative Care program invites older persons to work together to support the daily needs of the center. Seniors generously share their skills with the Sisters and with each other and, in turn, find an opportunity to socialize, work and pray together. They help with the gardens and lawns, prepare fruits and vegetables for canning and freezing, make meals for special occasions at the center, keep the supply of firewood plentiful, and take care of numerous other hands-on tasks.

In the eyes of Mike Pompeo, the day was shaping up to be one of his most commanding displays of diplomacy since becoming secretary of state.

During the Trump administration, the usual ways of conducting diplomacy have been upended.

What effect are these changes having now, and how will they affect ongoing relationships between the United States and its allies and adversaries?

A: Use left join instead as explained: here
Unfortunatelly MySQL doesn't have an operator for relational subtraction like some other DBMS do, so you should something like explained in following example:
Solution Oracle
SELECT x, y FROM table_a
MINUS
SELECT x, y FROM table_b;

Solution MySQL
SELECT a.x, a.y
FROM table_a a LEFT JOIN table_b b
ON a.x = b.x AND a.y = b.y
WHERE b.x IS NULL;


The Australian Government has introduced far reaching changes to the definition of Member of the Family Unit (MoFU) for the purpose of most visa applications. There are now significant limitations on the class of persons that can be considered part of MoFU and hence be included in a visa application.
From 18 November 2016, Australian citizen and permanent resident Sponsors of Partner Visa and Prospective Marriage Visa applications ("a partner visa"), are subject to character testing. In line with current Australian Government strategies to reduce family violence in the Australian community, the new provisions have been introduced to prevent Australians who have committed a relevant offence from being able to sponsor someone for a partner visa.

Texas National Guard Soldiers working on a U.S. Customs and Border Patrol truck in 2018.
The federal government is sending more troops to the U.S. border with Mexico just as Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham pulls back National Guard personnel from the state's southern frontier.
And that was just as well for some border residents who said a military presence did not seem necessary along New Mexico's sparsely populated stretch of the frontier.
Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham announced Tuesday that she withdrew most of New Mexico's National Guard troops from the border. Troops in Hidalgo County and neighboring, however, will remain in place.


← Are custody battles one-sided?
Fathers should feel empowered from a study recently published in the journal Personality and Social Psychology Review, 36 studies were analyzed, from 1975 to 2010, involving almost 1,400 adults and 8,600 children in 18 countries. The children ranged in age from 9 to 18, and adults were between 18 and 89.
Those traits — aggression, independence, positive self-esteem, positive self-adequacy, emotional responsiveness, emotional stability and positive worldview — were evaluated using self-report questionnaires. Participants were asked about their parents' degree of acceptance or rejection during their childhoods and about their own personality characteristics or tendencies.
"The study shows a strong relationship between those seven traits and the experience of feeling accepted and cared about by your parents," said Dr. John Sargent, a professor of psychology and pediatrics at Tufts University School of Medicine and chief of child and adolescent psychiatry at Tufts Medical Center, in Boston.
So even though Fathers may be discriminated against now, the tide is changing and as a father or parent, you need to build your case to stay in your child's life. Their future and yours, depends on it!


Harrow Borough avoided a potential banana skin by winning 2-0 at Chatham Town in the Ryman League Cup on Monday night.
Joakim Ehui set up the opening goal when his cross was headed in by Alwayne Jones against one of his former clubs.
The Reds sealed their win in the competition when Jordan Lawal set up Jones for his second goal of the night.
Boro pulled off an upset in the league on Saturday as they ended Bury Town's unbeaten run with a 1-0 victory.
The crucial goal came after just 11 minutes of the contest when Ukrainian Nicolai Tararov headed in James Burgess' cross.
Bury Town scored ten times last week against AFC Sudbury so there was no doubts about their ability in front of goal heading into the game.
The hosts started the second half strongly and came close to an equaliser when John Sands forced a good save from goalkeeper Elvijs Putnins.
Simeon Akinola thought he had settled the match with the visitors' second goal but his strike was ruled out for offside.
Sam Reed had an opportunity for Bury Town but he lobbed the goalkeeper when well placed to find an equaliser.
Dave Anderson's side had to survive nine minutes of injury time but they managed to hold out and claim a vital three points to take them clear of the bottom sides in the league. Boro face mid-table Canvey Island at Earlsmead this weekend.


What a great selection of diverse reading! I have just added Pure Trash to my TBR and have moved Dog Bone Soup up the list. Thanks for sharing your insights with us, Denise, and a big Congratulations on your upcoming 35th wedding anniversary, have a marvelous trip.
Thank you Soooz! I'm not sure where all the time went though…lol. The TBR list never stops growing does it?
Great roundup, Denise. I just finished both of Nonnie's books and I agree. The others are on my TBR. Thirty-five!!! That's awesome. Congratulations to you and the Mister!
Thanks, Linda it went by so fast I almost have to pinch myself for 35!
I've read If Only There Was Music, Pure Trash and Dog Bone Soup. All great reads. Dog Bone Soup is particularly special—a book that still resonates with me over a year after reading it.
Yes, all good ones! "Dog Bone Soup" is one of those that will hang on I agree. Would make a great movie.
Thank you I am looking forward to a weekend at the beach!
Great reviews, Denise. I still haven't read "Dog Bone Soup," or "Pure Trash," but read the others and agree wholeheartedly with your reviews. Happy Anniversary!! Enjoy your time away!
All good books and I think you will enjoy "Dog Bone Soup" and "Pure Trash". Thank you I'm looking forward to "camping" on the beach!
Some wonderful reviews here. I've read books by Nonnie and Bette, but will check the others out too.
Thank you Lizzie:) All good reads! Thanks for dropping by and have an amazing week!
Thank you Bette! I am looking forward to our coastal trip! I've been wanting to read "Dog Bone Soup" for a while now and really enjoyed it and "Pure Trash". It really leaves you thinking after.
A wonderful post about some great books by talented writers. I have read them all.
Thanks Karen. I've been on a lucky streak with reading amazing books!


Save a trip to the MBTA offices in Downtown Boston and apply for a Senior CharlieCard in Brighton on September 18!
Senator Will Brownsberger will sponsor a Senior CharlieCard Day on Monday, September 18 from 10 AM – 12 PM at the Faneuil Branch of the Boston Public Library, located at 419 Faneuil Street in Brighton. Staff from the Office of Senator Brownsberger will be on hand to take photos and process applications, which will be provided. No advanced sign-up is required. Interested adults age 65 or older just need to bring a valid, state-issued photo ID that includes date of birth. Senior CharlieCards will be sent to applicants by mail, and may take six to eight weeks to process.
What is a Senior CharlieCard? Adults age 65 or older are eligible for the Senior CharlieCard, which can be used to receive reduced fares on all MBTA transportation services – including buses, subway, commuter rail, and the Salem-to-Boston ferry – in addition to discounted monthly passes, which are good for unlimited local bus and subway travel. More information about reduced senior fares can be found online here.
If you currently have a Senior CharlieCard that is about to expire and you need to renew it, you do not need to come to this event. Senior CharlieCards can be renewed for free over the phone by calling the MBTA at (617) 222-3200. Your renewed card will be sent by mail. If your Senior CharlieCard has already expired or you have lost it, then you may reapply in person at this event or call the MBTA office.
I'm glad you "stressed" it here that you have to be 65 or older.
People that read Howie Carr's book about Whitey Bulger will believe the story that Whitey went down to get his "Senior Pass" at age 62.
Maybe you should have put the 65+ in the email ?
There are so many different "senior" categories. AARP says 50. If someone beats you up and you are 60, it is elder abuse.
Out at Hoover Dam there were some 75 year old people from Canada. The "senior discount" only applies to US Citizens and they were denied.
See, there are benefits to being a "legal citizen" and what you can and cannot do.


It was just another average Saturday morning in Glencairn (OK, maybe not completely average). There was a unique race at MSU. The race was the Color Me Rad 5K. The cool thing about it was that it was a short 5-10 minute walk from the Glencairn house to get to the course on campus.
Runners ran a 5K through campus and passed various stations where they were showered with different colors of powder (which, by the way, are made of corn starch and dye and safe for people and the environment).
By the end of the race the runners were covered with various colors of "paint". It was a really fun way to start out a Saturday and made me consider running in one myself!
I can only imagine what it would be like to live here 365 days a year and have opportunities like this accessible year around. We are now making this opportunity available to a fortunate couple, family, or individual who would appreciate being so close to all that the downtown East Lansing area has to offer because...we have officially listed the Glencairn house!
This home is in a highly desirable neighborhood where there is plenty of action, beautiful parks, and great places to walk and bike. Imagine walking home down Glencairns tree-lined streets from a great local event downtown or a game on campus to settle into one of the hippest homes in town!
Please share this with friends you think might be interested.


Given the increased popularity of Corporate Social Responsibility and Sustainability, a rise in demand for well-trained Sustainability Professionals is evident reflected in the fierce competition in the field. As interest in CSR-related jobs is increasing, we find it useful to discuss how you can find a job in the sector.
How does the business earn profit?
Who is affected by the organization's operations and how?
What are the characteristics and issues of the environment/society in which it operates?
Remember the "triple bottom line" approach to sustainability: planet, people AND profit. CSR is supposed to benefit the company as well and lead the way to success. So, knowing how the organization operates is crucial in order to combat competition. This is the key to using the organization's resources wisely and efficiently.
The CR and Sustainability Salary Survey 2014 conducted by Acre, Flag and Carnstone showed that the majority of professional qualifications are not restricted to CSR-related subjects since the sector is an emerging one. For that reason, such positions are often filled through internal promotions and are appointed to professionals with more than 5 years of experience as subtly stressed by an ECO Canada study. In such situations, on-the-job training is expected.
However, you do not have to be discouraged. Even though entry-level positions are limited, you can still enter the sector. As we said, direct experience is not a prerequisite. Therefore, if you are not currently working for the organization of your preference and looking for a job, you can differentiate through a strong online present. Go beyond demonstrating a good CV. Share your knowledge and thoughts on relative subjects and show you have done your research. Getting involved in CSR communities and staying up to date with CSR and sustainability issues via dedicated websites (CSRwire, Triple Pundit, 3BL) can prove your commitment. Also, participation in online discussions, webinars and conferences will facilitate the networking process with key people, which is of utmost importance for finding a job. On the other hand, if you are already an employee, joining the company's volunteering or green initiatives is a smart move.
Provided that priority is given to existing personnel, greater emphasis is given to transferable skills and knowledge.
Work on your communications skills. First of all, you will need departments with which you will collaborate to be fully supportive. You want all employees involved to espouse your ideas. Being influential to such an extent implies that you are capable of tailoring your message based on the target audience and effectively communicate your ideas. Use their language in order to change any negative perceptions and associations related to CSR and sustainability. For many employees, these terms are synonymous to rules and conformity.
Undoubtedly, you will need to successfully practice such essential skills when interacting with top management since there may be conflict of interest. Sustainable practice should be aligned with the commercial success of the organization. Communication effectiveness paired with good sales skills is a powerful combination. They may seem irrelevant, but they are the key. You may not have to promote a product or a service, but you still have to sell your idea to top management. You have to act as a salesperson, being ready to predict and handle any objections.
Finally, a major test for your skills will be the development of relationships with stakeholders. Trust is the ultimate goal and a great challenge. The secret to building trust is interpersonal skills, such as active listening and empathy, and will hopefully result in stakeholder engagement. To this end, a powerful communication tool, reporting, is used. Knowledge on data analysis and metrics is imperative as well as finding common ground among multiple audiences.
It holds true that CR and Sustainability professionals can provide a competitive advantage for companies and specialized education can make you a more attractive applicant.
The Centre for Sustainability and Excellence (CSE) as a global leader in professional Sustainability training and coaching has already trained more than 5,000 professionals worldwide and over 35% of these stated that after the training were able to find Sustainability related job or been promoted within their company.

Q: imagerotate not keeping transparency in background This question might look like a duplicate but I haven't found an answer yet so am posting it again. I am working on image rotation and am using php. On rotating image using imagerotate() the image leaves a background either black or it can be made into white according to some solutions on official php website. I have gone through almost all the posts on the internet but didn't find a single answer that resolved the issue. My question is that whether is it possible to completely make the background transparent? I have added the code now. This code does the rotation work on the image.
    $imagew = imagecreatefrompng('test.png');  //I have changed the path to simple example
    imagerotate($imagew, $angle, 0);

    imagealphablending($imagew, false);
    imagesavealpha($imagew, true);

    imagepng($imagew);
    imagedestroy($imagew);


"This was a wake-up call for me. Thank you."
"It seemed as though this video has been made for me and my family. There were so many common things."
"I will definitely change my lifestyle and spend more time with my children and family now."
"I am glad I came today because I have realised how small things can mean so much to my little children. Thank you for this wonderful learning opportunity."

I Know A Woman, is published by Aurum on February 15. It's all about the links between some of the most fascinating women of the last couple of hundred years; friendships, mentoring, influences and groups that served to inspire and strengthen their resolve.
There are mini biographies of 84 women; some you'll know such as Amelia Earhart, Beyoncé and Katharine Hepburn, but others are more esoteric. I loved uncovering the stories of artist Claude Cahun, aviatrix Marie Marvingt, and maths genius Sofia Kovalevskaya.
The book is made by the incredible illustrations of Sarah Papworth; they're vibrant, compelling and tell each woman's story to great effect. The book is available in all good bookshops and online, and I can't wait for you to see it in real life – it's a beautiful thing.
Rural London was published in May 2017 by Michael O'Mara. They say:
"London is a wonderful city, but sometimes the hustle and bustle, noise and grime, can get too much and you feel the need for some peace and quiet, clean air and nature. But there's no need to flee to the countryside, as London has so many surprisingly 'rural' areas and activities to offer.
With everything from beautiful gardens and country walks, to cosy pubs and nature reserves, Rural London will help you to discover a very unexpected side of the capital city.

Clever girl pretends to be hurt to rescue scared stray dog
This poor pup was so scared of people, but he still wanted to help someone in need.
In an off-roading park in Washington State, people began sharing reports of a lost dog who was all alone in the woods.
The pup was skittish, but he would take food from the off-roaders who wanted to help him.
Then, rumors of the lost dog reached two local dog-lovers named Amanda and Dylan.
The dog, who was later named Bear, was alone and lost in a park.
When Amanda and Dylan heard about him, they immediately went to go look for him.
They first attempted to coax the dog with food. But that didn't work out.
Eventually, Amanda curled up on the gravel road by Bear, but with her back to him. He started to growl, but he eventually got close enough to smell her.
She laid on the road like this for a while before Bear lost interest and wandered off.
Amanda continued pretending to be injured and in need of help.
She laid on the ground in a fetal position and started crawling backward towards the dog.
She spent the next hour inching closer and closer to Bear.
When he voiced discomfort, Amanda started whimpering and yawning, which to dogs, is a calming signal.
Amanda knew how fragile Bear was. Rather than grab him immediately, she chose to build up trust over time.
Eventually, she got close enough to lay right beside Bear.
She made "comfort" sounds to help keep him at ease.
Bear was emaciated. His bone and ribs were sticking out.
But after hours of patience and understanding, Amanda and Dylan had finally earned Bear's trust.
For the next two hours, Amanda cuddled with Bear, until he finally allowed her to slip a lead around his neck. Bear was finally safe.
Thanks to these unsung heroes, Bear is on the road to recovery.
That night, Amanda discovered that Bear wanted to be carried everywhere, and she more than happily obliged.
The two cuddled together every chance they got.
She then took him to the vet, who helped him recover from his ordeal.
Bear seemed used to people so Amanda and the vet guessed he had once had a home.
"We are so happy to say that Baby Bear is getting the medical attention that he desperately needed, and will be going to a rescue until we can find his family or, if they are not found after 30 days, a new forever home!" Amanda wrote on Facebook.
Nobody came forward to claim Bear, and so once he was healthy enough, he was brought to Useless Bay Sanctuary.
It didn't take long before Bear was adopted! A wonderful family decided to give Bear his perfect forever home.
"Baby Bear has found his forever home with a wonderful family.
A special thank you to Amanda and Dylan for getting him to safety, and his amazing foster family for giving him all the love and care he needed.
Have a happy life, Bear! His new family will continue to share updates on his Facebook page," the sanctuary wrote on Facebook.
It's now been about six years since Bear was first rescued, and he's doing great!
His family created a Facebook page for the pup, and they update it every few months to let Bear's fans know how he's doing. He looks great and very happy.
We're so glad Bear is doing so well.
Please SHARE this story with your family and friends.

Static Partition (SP) columns: in DML/DDL involving multiple partitioning columns, the columns whose values are known at COMPILE TIME (given by user).
Dynamic Partition (DP) columns: columns whose values are only known at EXECUTION TIME.
DP columns are specified the same way as it is for SP columns – in the partition clause. The only difference is that DP columns do not have values, while SP columns do. In the partition clause, we need to specify all partitioning columns, even if all of them are DP columns.
In INSERT … SELECT … queries, the dynamic partition columns must be specified last among the columns in the SELECT statement and in the same order in which they appear in the PARTITION() clause.
Although currently there is not restriction on the data type of the partitioning column, allowing non-primitive columns to be partitioning column probably doesn't make sense. The dynamic partitioning column's type should be derived from the expression. The data type has to be able to be converted to a string in order to be saved as a directory name in HDFS.
string length is unlimited in theory, but HDFS/local FS directory name length is limited.
string value could contains special characters that is reserved in FS path names (such as '/' or '..').
what should we do for partition column ObjectInspector?
We need to define a UDF (say hive_qname_partition(T.part_col)) to take a primitive typed value and convert it to a qualified partition name.
the input value. We should allow users to plugin their own UDF for the partition hash function. Will file a follow up JIRA if there is sufficient interests.
You're probably thinking about building a data warehouse (just about every company is if they haven't already). After reading SQL Server Partitioning: Not the Best Practice for Anyone and Potential Problems with Partitioning you're wondering why anyone would partition their data: it can be harder to tune queries, indexes take up more space, and SQL Server's partitioning requires Enterprise Edition on top of that expensive SAN you're adding to cope with the extra space. Anyone who is looking at implementing table partitioning in SQL Server would do well to take a look at using Hive for their partitioned database.
Setting up partitioning functions in SQL Server is a pain. It's left up to the implementor to decide if the partition function should use range right or range left and how partitions will be swapped in and out. Writing robust partitioning functions is stressful the first time around. What if we didn't have to define a partition function? What if the database knew how to handle partitioning for us? Hive does just that.
As we load data it is written to the appropriate partition in the table. There's no need to create partitions in advance or set up any kind of partition maintenance; Hive does the hard work for us. The hardest part is writing queries. It's a rough life, eh?
You might have noticed that while the partitioning key columns are a part of the table DDL, they're only listed in the PARTITIONED BY clause. This is very different from SQL Server where the partitioning key must be used everywhere in a partitioned table. In Hive, as data is written to disk, each partition of data will be automatically split out into different folders, e.g. country=US/year=2012/month=12/day=22. During a read operation, Hive will use the folder structure to quickly locate the right partitions and also return the partitioning columns as columns in the result set.
This is a somewhat inflexible, but effective, approach. Hive makes it difficult to accidentally create tens of thousands of partitions by forcing users to list the specific partition being loaded. This approach is great once you're using Hive in production but it can be tedious to initially load a large data warehouse when you can only write to one partition at a time. There is a better way.
With a few quick changes it's easy to configure Hive to support dynamic partition creation. Just as SQL Server has a SETcommand to change database options, Hive lets us change settings for a session using the SET command. Changing these settings permanently would require opening a text file and restarting the Hive cluster – it's not a difficult change, but it's outside of our scope.
When inserting data into a partition, it's necessary to include the partition columns as the last columns in the query. The column names in the source query don't need to match the partition column names, but they really do need to be last – there's no way to wire up Hive differently.
Be careful using dynamic partitions. Hive has some built-in limits on the number of partitions that can be dynamically created as well as limits on the total number of files that can exist within Hive. Creating many partitions at once will create a lot of files and creating a lot of files will use up memory in the Hadoop Name Node. All of these settings can be changed from their defaults, but those defaults exist to prevent a single INSERT from taking down your entire Hive cluster.
Find ways to reduce the number of underlying files. This can happen by manipulating load processes to use a single reducer.
Modify the partition scheme to use fewer partitions. With a rough threshold of 10,000 partitions, most partition schemes can be accommodated. Remember – each partition should contain about 64MB of data, minimum.
It's that easy: we've swapped out a partition in Hive and removed the old data in one step. . Truthfully, there's an even easier way using the SET LOCATION clause of ALTER TABLE.
Just like that, the new partition will be used. There's one downside to this approach – the old data will still exist in Hadoop, only the metadata will be changed. If we want to clear out the old data, it's going to be necessary to run drop down to HDFS commands and delete the old data out of Hadoop itself.
Is Hive Partitioning Right For You?
If you're thinking about partitioning a relational database, you should give serious consideration to using partitioned tables in Hive. One of the advantages of Hive is that storage and performance can be scaled horizontally by adding more servers to the cluster – if you need more space, just add a server; if you need more computing power, just add a server. Hive's approach to data skips some of the necessary costs of partitioning in SQL Server – there's no Enterprise Edition to purchase, minimal query tuning involved (hint: you should almost always partition your data in Hive), and no expensive SAN to purchase. Keep in mind – you don't need to use partitioning to get started with Hive, either. You can always partition after the fact.
For better or for worse – if you're thinking about partitioning a data warehouse in SQL Server, you should think about using Hive instead.

Last week Amazon finally announced that New York and Northern Virginia would be the sites of its planned major expansion. While many are caught up in the excitement of Amazon bringing 25,000 high-paid jobs to both metropolitan areas, it is worth thinking through the costs that beauty contests like this one impose on state and local governments. Amazon extracted billions of dollars in concessions from the winners and could have extracted even more from some of the other cities courting them.
It is economically rational for companies to create such Hunger Games-type competitions among communities. These competitions reduce their costs and improve their bottom lines. But is it economically rational for the cities? As long as governments are acting independently, yes, it is rational for them to race to the bottom to secure a win. So long as they are a bit better off by snagging the prize than they would have been otherwise, they come out ahead. But the metrics that politicians use are unlikely to be limited to a hard-nosed accounting of costs and increased tax revenues. Positive buzz may be enough to satisfy them.
Likewise, hundreds of millions of dollars are thrown at stadiums and arenas even though economists have clearly demonstrated that those investments do not generate a positive financial return for the governments that provide these subsidies. Fancy consultants set forth all of the supposed benefits: job creation, direct spending by all of the people drawn to the facility, indirect spending by those who service the direct spenders. This last metric is meant to capture the increase in restaurant staff, Uber drivers and others who will cater to the new employees, residents and visitors to the facility. But as has been shown time and time again, these metrics are vastly overstated and willingly accepted at face value by politicians eager to generate some good headlines. They also ignore the opportunity cost of the direct subsidies—monies spent on attracting a company is money that can't be spent on anything else. While we don't know what it would have been spent on, it is likely to have been public schools, mass transit, roads or affordable housing in many communities.
Households that already contribute sufficiently to tax-deferred retirement accounts often believe that the tax break from interest expense deduction is more beneficial than prepaying a mortgage. This idea stems from a faulty assumption regarding the appropriate opportunity cost of funds. This study covers a 26-year period and shows that prepayment is optimal for this type of household when correctly comparing the after-tax cost of the mortgage and the after-tax return of the risk-appropriate competing investment. The study illustrates that interest expense savings are greater than tax deduction benefits from 1990-2016 when prepaying 15-year and 30-year mortgages.
This study proposes a proper competing investment that better accounts for the risky aspect of home ownership which is rarely addressed in the prior literature. Relying on the precedent 16 established in the commercial mortgage industry related to mortgage prepayment through defeasance, Treasury securities are recommended as the proper competing investment. This case should be compelling given the fact that Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 as amended (15 U.S.C. 80a-1) requires that the substitute collateral in defeasance consist only of government securities. For example, this study shows that the opportunity cost of not paying off a 30-year mortgage five years early is 1.42 percent. This represents the excess mortgage interest rate paid over the interest that could be earned by investing in a five-year Treasury security.
A key assumption in this study that makes the Treasury security a valid competing investment is that particular households have already contributed the recommended minimum of at least ten percent of their earnings to their tax-deferred retirement account. It is important to note that the study advocates contributing sufficiently to a tax-deferred retirement account before considering an early mortgage paydown. Both foreclosure risk and interest expense are reduced when mortgage prepayment occurs for households projected to have sufficient retirement income.
This study computes the required average monthly extra principal payment and average total interest expense savings net of lost tax shelters for the early retirement of 30- or 15-year mortgage debt for various scenarios from 1990 to 2016. For example, it would only take an average extra principal payment of $83 a month to prepay a 30-year mortgage five years early and save an average $33,477 based on the historical rates for the last twenty-seven years. Similarly, by making an extra principal payment of approximately $218 households can prepay a 30-year mortgage ten years early and can save an average of $65,191. The estimates reported in this study are very conservative because they target married persons filing jointly in the 25 17 percent marginal tax bracket and the study assumes a 20 percent down payment. Further, based upon the 25 percent tax bracket for 2014, the study assumes an average state tax rate based on an average tax bracket of greater than $45,504 up to a maximum tax bracket of greater than $139,400. Therefore, the savings could be much greater for those in lower tax brackets and those without state income taxes. The results of the study are of interest to homeowners who have the financial ability to make extra principal payments but fear losing the commonly cited tax benefit of interest expense deductibility.
Loans with problematic terms or practices result in higher rates of default and foreclosure/ repossession. For example, dealer-brokered auto loans, which often contain abusive provisions, are twice as likely to result in repossession as bank- or credit union-financed auto loans.
The consequences of default, repossession, bankruptcy, and foreclosure are long-term. For example, one in seven job-seekers with blemished credit has been passed over for employment after a credit check, and borrowers who experience default pay much more for subsequent credit.
The opportunity costs of abusive loans are significant. For example, during the same period that subprime loans peaked and millions of families unnecessarily lost their homes, families with similar credit characteristics who sustained homeownership experienced on average an $18,000 increase in wealth per family.
Abusive loans have an impact on the economy as a whole. The foreclosure crisis depleted overall housing wealth and led to millions of job losses; predatory practices have been shown to diminish public trust and confidence in the financial system; and there is evidence that student debt is preventing economic growth, especially for young families.
Across many financial products, low-income borrowers and borrowers of color are disproportionately affected by abusive loan terms and practices. Families with annual incomes below $25,000– $35,000 are much more likely to receive an abusive loan product. And in most cases, borrowers of color are two to three times more likely to receive an abusive loan compared with a white counterpart. The discriminatory effects of abusive lending clearly contribute to the widening wealth gap between families of color and white families.
Loans with problematic terms are repeatedly concentrated in neighborhoods of color. Subprime mortgages and payday loans are two examples. Such concentration leads to a net drain of community wealth and value that could have been spent on productive economic activity and meeting vital community needs.
Debt plays a profound role in the financial lives of most American households, with about three-quarters of households having at least one form of debt and many having multiple forms of debt. Indeed, most consumers are not simply mortgage holders, credit card users, payday loan borrowers, or car-title borrowers; they are likely to participate in more than one of these markets, often at the same time.
The Center for Responsible Lending is a very effective advocate for consumer protection in the financial services industry. That being said, I found it interesting that they were very circumspect in their section on Future Areas of Regulation. (33) They referenced the existing Credit CARD Act, Dodd-Frank Act, state payday lending laws and federal payday lending regulations, but they did not identify any aspects of the consumer financial services market that need additional regulation. Hard to imagine it, but it seems that CRL believes that we have reached regulatory Nirvana, at least in theory.

IIA Releases New Practice Guide on Talent Management
Internal audit talent shortage demands stronger efforts to retain best and brightest
ALTAMONTE SPRINGS, Fla. (Dec. 31, 2015) — Recruiting, retaining, and developing the best talent is a must for internal audit functions to prosper in today's dynamic business environment. A new Practice Guide from The Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) offers its members comprehensive instruction on identifying organizational needs and building the team to meet them.
Talent Management — Recruiting, Developing, Motivating, and Retaining Great Team Members begins with a primer on understanding stakeholder expectations, then outlines how chief audit executives (CAEs) can assess competencies of staff members to meet those needs.
"With a growing internal auditor labor shortage, it is crucially important for CAEs to recruit and retain the best talent and nurture development of younger practitioners," said IIA President and CEO Richard F. Chambers, CIA, QIAL, CGAP, CCSA, CRMA. "This timely new Practice Guide provides a complete look at the steps CAEs must take to meet this challenge."
From tips on recruitment (internal and external), candidate selection, and the pros and cons of outsourcing/co-sourcing, the Practice Guide provides best practices for identifying the best talent as well as for talent development, motivation and retention.
For example, potential staff motivators are mapped against Maslow's hierarchy of needs, a popular framework for management training.
"Although it is important to find the best combination of motivators for each individual, challenging work, career opportunities, quality of work environment and recognition — rather than compensation — are leading drivers of staff retention," according to the new guide.
The guide ends with important information on how talent management fits into implementing and maintaining IIA-mandated quality assurance and improvement programs.
The Practice Guide is available free of charge to all IIA members.

Mother, aunt of Brunswick baby murder suspect charged with lying to police
A gun was also found after the women were arrested.
Terry Dickson
BRUNSWICK - A handgun discovered Tuesday will be tested to determine if it was used to kill a Brunswick baby last week in a stroller.
After police arrested the mother and aunt of murder suspect De'Marquise Elkins, 17, Tuesday morning on charges of making false statements, the women provided information that eventually led investigators to the gun, Glynn County Police Chief Matt Doering said.
Investigators found the gun about 8 a.m. in a marsh pond east of U.S. 17 near its intersection with Spur 25, Doering said. That was about three hours after the arrests of Elkins' mother, Karimah Aisha Elkins, 36, and aunt, Katrina Latrelle Elkins, 33.
An officer using an underwater metal detector found the gun in 2 1/2 to 3 feet of water after a four-hour search, Doering said.
Antonio Angel Santiago, 13 months old, was shot in the face as he sat in a stroller that his mother Sherry West was pushing near their apartment, which faces Union Street. West said one of two assailants demanded money before shooting her in the thigh and then her child in the head with a handgun.
Dominique Lang, 14, is also charged with murder.
Both suspects are being held without bail.
The two women posted $1,104 bail Tuesday, but Katrina Elkins is still being held on a probation violation warrant issued by Henry County, Undersheriff Ron Corbett said.
She is charged with violating her probation on misdemeanor charges of speeding and driving with a suspended license, Henry County Police Capt. David McCart said.
Doering would not say what led to the false statements charge.
Katrina Elkins has said publicly that her nephew was with her from breakfast throughout the morning that the boy was slain and could not have killed the child.
Karimah Elkins refused to speak with the Times-Union before and after her son's court appearance Monday.
Asked about the charges against the two women, Public Defender Kevin Gough, whose office is defending Elkins, said he didn't know the basis of the charges.
"In these situations that are so highly charged, it's not unusual for people to shift things in favor of their loved ones,'' Gough said.
He has filed demands for a speedy trial, West's psychiatric records and a motion for a bail hearing.
The slain child's body was cremated Monday at a funeral home north of Brunswick, said Wally Mathis, a neighbor and friend of the boy's father, Louis Santiago.
"Lou really loved that boy," and he has his ashes, Mathis said.
Jennifer Carter, the owner of Affordable Taxi, said she often drove West to doctor's appointments, to the grocery store and Walmart. She said West, who had an 18-year-old son killed in a fight in New Jersey years ago, called Antonio her miracle baby.
"Ever since she had the baby, she'd say the same thing: The Lord had blessed her with another son. It was her second chance at having a son,'' Carter said.

Sightings: Erick Swenson
April 14, 2012 - September 9, 2012
Erick Swenson on Art+Seek podcast
Lucia Simek shares her experience
Dallas-based artist Erick Swenson has received national and international acclaim for his beguiling sculptures. A graduate of the University of North Texas and member of the Good/Bad Art Collective in Denton c. 1999–2000, Swenson first gained international attention when his work was featured in the 2004 Whitney Biennial Exhibition at the Whitney Museum of Art in New York. His sculptures now grace the collections of the Whitney, the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, the Dallas Museum of Art, and the Saatchi Collection in London.
Rendered with a naturalist's sensitivity and incredible precision, the works often present fantastic vignettes of animals ensnared in strange, sometimes devastating circumstances, or quietly poetic scenes that evoke the beauty and tragedy of nature, as well as our own human condition. Often shocking in their realism and precise details, the works take months, sometimes years, for the artist to fabricate, making new work by Swenson incredibly rare. For Sightings, Swenson created an installation of new work for the Lower Level Gallery, a space which the artist could tightly control to create the appropriate theatrical setting for experiencing his work.
