"From the Rough," a movie produced by Darien resident Michael J. Critelli and his son, Michael A. Critelli, will be screened Thursday, Sept. 11, at the Darien Library, 1441 Post Road.
The 7 p.m. presentation will be followed by a question-and-answer session with Michael Sr., who was the lead producer, and Michael Jr., the screenwriter.
The film tells the story of Catana Starks, who made history as the first African-American woman to coach a men's college golf team. The 2014 film stars Taraji P. Henson, Michael Clarke Duncan and Tom Felton.
Michael Sr. said in an interview with the Darien News in April, "I've been a longtime believer in diversity and inclusion and opportunities for women and women of color. The idea that a short, soft-spoken African-American woman could coach successfully a men's team at the college level in a sport that is historically hostile to women and people of color was intellectually interesting in the beginning, because I wondered how she did it.
"The more I learned about her, the more remarkable a person she became to me."

The article gives an overview of the findings, first of all of the concrete forms of violence that girls experience and reactions to them, then about more general findings, amongst others: "Often intervention strategies in South African schools rely on psychological interventions as if something is inherently wrong with the child. They don't see violence as rooted in both individual and broader social and economic conditions in which children are located." Finally the article makes recommendations how to end or reduce gender-based violence (GBV) at school.

Ghana/Cocoa: The industry is worth 107bn USD, but only 2bn USD of that accrue to the cocoa producers. According to the country's president, "there can be no future prosperity for the Ghanaian people" if that's how things will continue to be. Exporting less of the harvest in the form of beans, processing them instead, producing chocolate would be the idea. But there are many pitfalls along that road…

Tribal Activist- Ravindra Velip was arrested for protesting iron ore transportation in Goa. Why so?
April 5, 2016 April 5, 2016 Editor	0 Comments
Nihar Gokhale:
On 22 March, Ravindra Velip, a 27-year old Panchayat member in Goa, was arrested, along with other villagers, for protesting and stopping trucks transporting iron ore through his village. He was taken to a state prison under judicial custody. On 24 March, when Velip was released on bail, he emerged from the jail with multiple fractures on his arm and injuries elsewhere.
Why was Velip attacked? What exactly happened inside the jail? Who is responsible?
These questions have blown into a sordid affair, engulfing a mining company, the BJP-led state government and one of its MLAs. The state government so far denies that anything happened. Police have refused to file a First Information Report (FIR). The state government has been dragged to the State Human Rights Commission (SHRC), as well as the National Commission of Scheduled Tribes (Velip belongs to a Scheduled Tribe).
Goa was notoriously known for illegal iron ore mining, before extraction was banned by the Supreme Court in 2012. For many Goans, the attack on Velip has brought back grim memories of the days of the illegal mining, and human rights violations of those who objected to it.
Why Velip?
In 2012, the Supreme Court banned iron ore mining in Goa, after it found large-scale illegalities in the ore extraction, amounting to a scam to the tune of Rs 35,000 crore. Then chief minister Digambar Kamat (of the Congress party) was believed to be involved.
But in November of 2013, the Court ordered that all iron ore, which had been mined out before the ban, be auctioned off. This ore was otherwise lying around idly at the mining sites.
Velip is a panch (one of five members) in Caurem-Pirla gram panchayat, in South Goa's Quepem taluka. Caurem (also spelt Cawrem) is in the heart of Goa's mining belt. His village lies in the path of the trucks coming from mines, including one owned by the Fomento Group, one of the biggest mining companies in Goa. Velip had led his panchayat to pass a resolution in May of 2014, to not allow private contractors from transporting the ore.
Velip, along with others, objecting to the e-auction of iron ore, claim that the mining, as well as the auction be handed over to a local cooperative society. This, so that the profits can be shared among the locals. This would also keep excessive mining under check, as those most affected by its harmful consequences would be in control of it.
On 19 February, 2016, Velip moved another resolution in the Panchayat objecting to plans to take the ore from Bategal mines to a jetty at Capxem. So far no iron ore had been transported out. But on 20 March, Velip came to know that ore was being transported. This coincided with a local tribal festival called Shigmo.
On 21 March, Velip, along with seven other activists tried to stop trucks coming from the Femento mine. They were arrested and released.
On 22 March, they were arrested again; this time they were taken to the Sada sub-jail. The attack on Velip took place the next morning.
Velip claims that on 23 March, he was beaten up inside premises of the jail. The NGO he is associated with, Federation of Rainbow Warriors, set up a fact-finding team consisting of their member John Fernandes, advocate Nandita Haksar, and law professor at NALSAR Amita Dhanda.
The team, in its report, states that Velip was assaulted in the Sada sub-jail on 23 March. He was jailed with four other activists, and they shared a jail cell on the first floor of the jail.
On the fateful morning, as Velip went to the toilet, he was attacked by four men who blindfolded him, gagged him, and carried him downstairs.
The team, in its report, states that Ravindra Velip was assaulted in the Sada sub-jail (Goa) on 23 March
"He was lifted up and thrown crashing down on the cement floor with such violence that he sustained serious injuries, including multiple fractures in the left forearm and severe pain in the neck and back," the report says.
"From the place where he was being beaten the Warder's station was very near but he failed to respond to the loud screams; the prisoners in Cell No 10 could not have witnessed the attack from their cell," it adds.
CCTV or no CCTV?
The prison has denied this incident happened. They claim CCTV cameras were not working on that day.
Speaking to Catch, Velip says that he personally saw two CCTV cameras around where he was attacked – one in the passage and another in the jailer's cabin – both of which were working.
The Inspector General of Prisons, Elvis Gomes, ordered an inquiry into the incident.
The report was submitted to Goa chief minister Laxmikant Parsekar, but has been kept confidential.
Parsekar ordered a magisterial probe under the North Goa district collector, apparently citing "discrepancies" between the IG Prisons' report and Velip's complaint.
The police haven't filed an FIR yet. Initially they said they were waiting for the IG's inquiry report to be submitted.
This is against the law, according to the fact finding team. Its report says that under Section 124 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, the police is mandated to file an FIR for such offences, and that this was upheld by the Supreme Court in a November, 2013, judgement (Lalita Kumari vs Govt.Of U.P.& Ors).
Who is suspected to have carried out the attack?
Velip and other activists blame the attack on a nexus between the mining industry and the state government. Within the industry, he blames the Fomento Group.
The state has been against Velip and his village's plans to transfer control of mining and ore transportation to the cooperative society. The government has not registered the society.
On 16 March, Goa's Department of Mines wrote a strongly worded letter to the panchayat on its resolutions demanding control over the mining operations. It said that this doesn't fall under the Panchayat's duties as outlined in the Constitution. The letter demands that the panchayat declare the resolutions null and void. The letter also asks the panchayat to "convey to the Panch member" and that if any hindrance is caused to the movement of ore, "necessary action shall be initiated against them."
Velip also blames the Member of Legislative Assembly from that constituency, Subhash Phal Dessai, who belongs to the BJP. Dessai is known to have been associated with transportation of ore since the mining days. According to his declaration of assets filed in 2014, he personally owns 18 trucks.
"So far, no government official has come to me to record any statement. Neither from the Prisons department nor from the police," Velip told Catch.
Velip said that he will be moving the National Commission for Scheduled Tribes on Monday, 4 April. He has already filed a complaint with the SHRC.
Goa Foundation, which had filed the petition in Supreme Court that led to the 2012 ban on mining, denounced the attack.
"Unless the local villagers are involved in all those mining activities for which they have capacity, they can never be expected to support mining. By assaulting even these persons who are not against mining per se, but who wish to ensure it is done by directly benefitting the local tribal community, those behind yesterday's assault are only creating more problems for themselves and their activity in the state," the Goa Foundation's director Claude Alvares said in a statement.
The attack has brought back memories of the days of mining. In 2013, the National Human Rights Commission concluded that the Goa government had violated human rights of 737 villagers who were protesting illegal mining. These villagers were also arrested by police for blocking ore transport.

Software Defined Security: Automated security in the cloud
E-SPIN
Friday, 19 January 2018 / Published in Solution
Current generation cloud infrastructure is complex and heterogeneous in nature and its management often requires frequent human intervention. The dynamic scaling nature, rapid virtual machine deployment, and open multi-tenant architectures of the cloud also amplify the associated security issues. This creates an environment, in which local misconfiguration can create subtle security risks for the entire infrastructure and it drives the need for automation and orchestration of cloud security controls. Software-defined security (SDSec) is a new approach to improving security within next-generation cloud environments. It delivers network security enforcement with software instead of traditional physical security controls, inherently simplifying the world of network security. Abstraction, automation and orchestration are not the only benefits of software-defined security, eliminating the dependencies on hardware also means that security can be deployed in tandem with the changing levels of virtualized cloud infrastructure.
SDSec is a similar technology of Software Defined Network (SDN) insofar that the security control plane is separated from the security processing and forwarding planes. This concept has attracted the attention of many organisations and several solutions have been recently proposed for security automation in both commercial and academic domains. The following are examples of commercially available products:
CheckPoint solution: is software defined protection that partitions the security infrastructure into three interconnected layers; enforcement, control and management layers. These work together to deal with threat prevention, access control and data protection.
Intel security controller: enables automated and dynamic security provisioning policy synchronisation protection and remediation for software defined infrastructure built on VMware NSX. It has virtual antivirus, IPS, sandboxing, firewall, web filtering and data loss prevention.
CloudPassage Halo: allows host intrusion detection (file integrity monitoring, configuration security monitoring and log-based intrusion detection), network authentication and management for firewall configurations.
Catbird: is a software-defined security system for virtual infrastructure. It allows protection of private clouds and virtual Data Centers, and is available for both VMware and OpenStack.
Many researchers also consider SDSec as a promising solution and this has been the subject of some European-funded projects (e.g. https://www.secured-fp7.eu/ which is studying the architecture of a security gateway). Other researchers have developed an open-source SDN Controller (SE-Floodlight) which is an implementation of an SDN security policy enforcing mediation service in an OpenFlow stack. A working group called "Software Defined Perimeter Working Group" has also been launched by the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) in December 2013 to create a security model to stop all forms of network attacks including DDoS, Man-in-the-Middle, etc. using the same idea of separating control plane and data plane.
This is achieved by an approach deploying perimeters preserving the invisibility and inaccessibility to "outsiders," and combining device authentication, identity-based access and dynamically provisioned connectivity.As one can guess, when applied to the cloud, this calls for automated deployment as well as analysis mechanisms, which in turn requires a cloud assurance policy language to express security goals for such environments. Where possible, configuration changes should be statically checked against the policy prior to implementation on the infrastructure. While many policy-driven security management systems exist, not many, however, tackle the requirements of a virtualized infrastructure. This is an open research opportunity since virtualization technology is becoming increasingly common in datacentres.
Software-Defined Security is one of the most promising approaches for the development of a cloud security solution, which can run without the traditional physical security middle-boxes. It can identify malicious traffic, infected hosts or network intruders and it isolates them through quarantine or redirection to a honeypot. The security abstraction, together with the unification of the security and policy definitions as well as their enforcement (even in dynamic and virtualised environments), independently from the underlying hardware and communication platform, are the main advantages of Software-Defined Security.SDSec is also a part of the Software-defined datacentre (SDDC), which is an extension of the virtualization concepts of abstracting, pooling, and automating all of the datacentre's resources and services. Here, all the elements of the infrastructure i.e. networking, storage, security etc., are virtualised and delivered as a service. Software Defined security is, however, still a marketing term and is at an early stage of development.

Q: get fully qualified method name from inspect stack I have trouble completing the following function:
def fullyQualifiedMethodNameInStack(depth=1):
    """
    The function should return <file>_<class>_<method> for the method in the
    stack at specified depth.
    """
    fileName=inspect.stack()[depth][1]
    methodName=inspect.stack()[depth][3]
    class= """ please help!!! """
    baseName=os.path.splitext( os.path.basename( fileName ) )[0]
    return '{0}_{1}_{2}'.format( baseName, className, methodName )

As you can see I want the class name of the method being executed. The stack that inspect returns only has the method name, and I do not know how to find the class belonging to the method.

A: You are always looking at a function context; the method context is already gone by the time the function executes. Technically speaking, functions act as descriptors when accessed as attributes on an instance (instance.method_name), which return a method object. The method object then, when called, in turn calls the original function with the instance as the first argument. Because this all happens in C code, no trace of the original method object remains on the Python stack.
The stack only needs to keep track of namespaces and the code to be executed for the local namespace. The original function object is no longer needed for these functions, only the attached code object still retains the name of the original function definition for traceback purposes.
If you know the function to be a method, you could search for a self local name. If present, type(self) is the class of the instance, which is not necessarily the class the method was defined on.
You would then have to search the class and it's bases (looping over the .__mro__ attribute) to try and locate what class defined that method.
There are a few more snags you need to take into account:

*

*Naming the first argument of a method self is only a convention. If someone picked a different name, you won't be able to figure that out without parsing the Python source yourself, or by going up another step in the stack and trying to deduce from that line how the function was called, then retrieve the method and it's .im_self attribute.

*You only are given the original name of the function, under which it was defined. That is not necessarily the name under which it was invoked. Functions are first-class objects and can be added to classes under different names.

*Although a function was passed in self and was defined as part of a class definition, it could have been invoked by manually passing in a value for self instead of the usual route of the method (being the result of the function acting as a descriptor) passing in the self reference for the caller.
In Python 3.3 and up, the situation is marginally better; function objects have a new __qualname__ attribute, which would include the class name. The problem is then that you still need to locate the function object from the parent stack frame.

Pizza Rossa: The Ultimate...

Pizza Rossa: The Ultimate Excellence in Italian Cuisine
Nothing speaks of an authentic Italian pizza more than the simple yet gorgeous tomato sauce spread out in the flatbread. Pizza has come a long way from an unnamed sauce spread out on a flatbread to the world's most famous dish.
Pizza Rossa is an ultimate Italian delicacy made with a reddish-orange pizza crust. The topping for this pizza is typically tomato sauce and basil. The sauce for pizza Rossa is generally made with red wine and tomato paste, which tastes heavenly and out of this world.
Hence, to educate you about how pizza Rossa can be your next dinner, Pizza Bien has come to curate the best article for you. Without any further ado, let's continue reading!
What is Pizza Rossa
If you're wondering what pizza Rossa is, it's a Rome delicacy where the thin and crispy flatbread is topped with rich tomato sauce that includes herbs. Pizza Rossa is sold in individual square shapes, so you can take your trip to Rome while enjoying the true essence of Italy.
The history of pizza Rossa takes us back to the initial days behind the discovery of pizza. Amid the already available pizza options then, the invention of pizza Rossa only happened when a fisherman's wife put Marinara sauce on top of her bread.
The sauce was infused with herbs like garlic, onion, oregano, thyme, etc. However, no cheese was involved! So if you're a cheese lover, Pizza Rossa may not be the best pick.
What Makes Pizza Rossa Special?
If you're interested in finding out what makes pizza Rossa special, this article will help. Pizzeria Rossa specializes in gourmet pizza al taglio, an Italian specialty.
The marinara sauce was first created by a fisherman's wife, credited with creating the dish. Today, the sauce is made with a slow, cold fermentation method. It is the most traditional way to create this dish, but some differences set it apart.
Pizzeria Rossa Specialises in Gourmet-Quality Pizza al Taglio
The Roscioli family has long specialized in a scrumptious pizza al taglio. It is a popular option for locals and tourists alike.
The pizza dough is thin and airy and comes in several flavors. The toppings are classic and seasonal, and the crust is considered the finest in Rome. This restaurant is located in the heart of central Rome.
The Fisherman's Wife - Marinara, Invented It
The famous Italian pizza marinara is said to have been created in the 17th century by a woman named Margherita.
Originally, it was made with tomato sauce, olive oil, oregano, basil, garlic, and a few other ingredients, making it easy to preserve. Poor sailors were also known to order it while away at sea, and it has a long history in Naples.
You Can Make it With a Slow, Cold Fermentation Process
When making pizza at home, you can use the slow, cold fermentation method to make a particular type of dough that has a unique flavor. If you want to avoid the hassle of baking the pizza from scratch, order authentic Neapolitan goodness from your home right now!
A typical pizza dough uses about 10 grams of fresh yeast and about 3 grams of active dry yeast. The amount of yeast needed will depend on the flour and water. You will use less yeast for this recipe than you would typically use, as the yeast is more powerful and will take longer to expand.
Pizza Bianca Vs. Pizza Rosa
If you've ever wondered which kind of pizza is healthier, pizza Bianca or pizza Rossa is the right choice. There are some critical differences between the two that you should know about.
You'll learn how to distinguish a Bianca from a Rossa and why it's a better choice for vegetarians. If you're not a vegetarian, you should be careful what you order since many pizzas on the market are not vegan or vegetarian.
Differences Between Pizza Bianca Vs. Pizza Rosa
There are a few differences between a traditional white pizza and a red one. A pizza Bianca is typically thin with a chewy crust. The crust on a pizza Rossa is thicker and usually topped with a savory tomato sauce, often olive oil and salt.
While baker Raffaele Esposito is often given credit for the invention of the pizza pie, the tradition of flatbreads topped with savory meats and vegetables dates back centuries before the creation of the pizza.
Street vendors had been selling flatbreads with toppings in Naples for years before Esposito made his famous pizzas. The name "Bianca" comes from the Italian word 'Bianco,' which is a cognate of the French word Blanche, which is itself derived.
The crust on a pizza Rossa is thicker than a pizza Bianca. The crust on a Bianca is usually made with fine Italian wheat flour, and the crust is baked in a wood-fired oven.
If you want to know which is the best oven for baking pizza, click here,
The dough is usually round and made by hand, although it may be rectangular. Housemade pizzas can be round or rectangular. Both are delicious, but they differ in their ingredients and preparation methods.
Ingredients on Pizza Bianca vs. Pizza Rossa
A critical difference between a pizza Rossa and a pizza Bianca is the tomato sauce. While both pizzas can be topped with tomato sauce, the pizza Bianca is made without tomato sauce.
Aside from the tomato sauce, you can also choose to put mozzarella cheese on your pizza Bianca. Make sure to add the cheese at the last minute of cooking for the original smoky taste. Once the crust is browned, you should add a few basil leaves.
While the two types of pizza are similar in appearance, the difference in ingredients can make a significant difference in taste and texture. A pizza Bianca is made with a crusty crust brushed with quality olive oil, while a pizza Rossa is made with dough with a savory tomato sauce. A good forum will have its sauce in addition to the cheese.
Non-vegetarian Pizza Bianca vs. Pizza Rossa
The term "pizza Bianca" encapsulates all pizza varieties without a tomato base. These pizzas are often listed separately. When looking for a non-vegetarian pizza, you'll find it listed separately from the pizza Rossa.
You'll also find white and closed pizzas. Calzone pizzas are folded, stuffed, and baked. Both can be topped with anything you want.
When choosing between non-vegetarian pizzas, keep in mind that both types have pros and cons. Non-vegetarian pizzas are typically made with cheeses, vegetables, and meat, while those with meat and vegetables are considered non-vegetarian. The differences between the two types are in the crust and the ingredients.
How to Make Pizza Rosa Alla Roma
If you're looking for a great pizza recipe, you've come to the right place. Here you'll find the History, Recipe, and Method for preparing pizza Rossa alla Romana.
Read on to discover some similarities and differences from other types of pizza. Then try your hand at making this delicious Italian pie. You'll be glad you did! Until then, have fun!
To prepare this delicious Italian pizza, first, you will need to make the dough. First, place the dough on a greased stone deck or a parchment paper-lined sheet pan. Allow the dough to rise for one hour.
Once the dough has risen, you can add a few teaspoons of olive oil to taste. Then, use a spoon to spread tomato sauce, salt, and olive oil over the pizza dough. Bake the dough for fifteen to eighteen minutes at 250 degrees C.
First, you must prepare your baking stone by putting a layer of olive oil on the surface. Then, cover it with a damp towel and set it aside in the refrigerator overnight.
About two hours before baking, remove the towel and flip the dough repeatedly. This will stretch the dough and ensure it is as thin as possible. Once the dough has reached the right size, bake it on the highest heat setting in the oven.
The style of pizza Rossa comes from Roman bakeries. The pizza is similar to Neapolitan style but with a different crust and hydration. The dough is made of a particular type of flour called Pinsa Romana.
This flour is similar to the Neapolitan style dough but contains oil. It is cooked at a lower temperature and is served with various condiments.
In conclusion, pizza Rossa is the ultimate Italian cuisine experience. It is a must-try for anyone who loves pizza.
The pizza itself is delicious, but the health benefits are also top-notch. So if you're looking for an excellent Italian meal, make your way to ordering authentic Neapolitan pizza right now!
Our real Italian pizzas from Italy are handmade with all-natural of high quality and fresh ingredients in Naples, Italy delivered to you, anywhere in the U.S. Free Shipping Nationwide.

Ashes and smoke from a large fire that began in the Angeles National Forest above Azusa late Tuesday afternoon drifted northwest into La Cañada Tuesday, prompting health officials to caution residents to stay indoors. The Morris fire, named that for its proximity to the Morris Dam, started at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday and was just 10% contained as of 1:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The dam is north of Azusa and Covina, approximately 15 miles from La Cañada. "The smoke is filling up in the Los Angeles area," said Peter Castro, public safety coordinator for the city of La Cañada Flintridge.

Though we didn't take a high boot to our own faces, we were out of commission earlier this week — so a late podcast covering all of the weekend's Premier League action is the silver lining you should be looking for. In it, we spend time discussing how Mané was definitely deserving of the red he saw against City, and why his over exuberance isn't solely to blame for Liverpool's crushing defeat. There was time too for the USMNT's continued poor run of form, as well as a look into the potential ramifications of NASL's lack of division two sanctioning.
So enjoy a belated #Pondcast on your favorite podcast listening service below, where you're absolutely also going to leave us that five-star rating you've been meaning to leave all season.


Medicine today is generally based on a "one-size-fits-all" practice, and where targeted therapies are possible, it is impractical to scale.
The goal of expanding precision medicine is to provide the right treatment at the right time for every patient. Tailoring treatment starts with a highly-specific diagnosis without unwarranted variation. Based on data integrated from existing sources, adding genomics and radiomics enables a holistic understanding of the individual. These unique characteristics steer the personalization of treatment.
A precise understanding of a patient's condition is the most effective approach to deliver outcomes favorable to all stakeholders.
Healthcare providers around the world can unlock the power of precision medicine for better care and lower cost. Harvard Business Review Analytics Services (HBR) published a new whitepaper for executives and leaders in healthcare on how to expand precision medicine and scale it up to an organizational level.

In March winter athletes will be accompanied for a week with hearty folk music in the nearby spring. Famous bands and music groups celebrate on the Seiser Alm sound travel that deserve all the predicate "very authentic".
South Tyrol's largest riding event in May commemorates the legendary knight, poet and singer whose life was closely linked to the villages and castles at the foot of the Schlern. This is a course of traditional ride games which leads 36 participating teams, whom the day really demands everything from. Well worth seeing!
A "Harass" is a wooden crate - once a year here with us in Tiers on the Wuhnleger it is filled with bacon, chamois sausages, Bergler bread and cheese. Enjoy the meal!
As part of the summer in Bergler in Tiers Bergler nights take place at the bottom of Rosengarten - a street party with food and music and enchanting nocturnal atmosphere.
In Seis the Kastelruther Spatzen invite every year in June to an open air concert - a good opportunity to hear them live on vacation in their homeland.
The grandiose Dolomite scenery and the around 600 m to be overcome in altitude make this run on Europe's largest high alpine pasture to an unusual sporting event. Maybe drungin your vacation you feel like being at the start in July?
This mountain running in the picturesque Val d'Ega goes along more than 900 meters in altitude. The track itself is 4 km long. The start is on the Frommer Alm at an altitude of 1,743 m. Would that be something for you?
On a balmy summer evening on the Proa-meadow in front of Rosengarten an unusual culinary event is held: Sitting on a 100 m long table 160 gourmet strung and convince themselves of the delights of Tierser kitchen with a five-course meal with panoramic view.
In September, everything revolves in Seis to the Strudel, you can enoy it filled with apple, plum or plug, in a thousand variations. A traditional farmers' market, ancient customs and folk music round off the gourmet day.
If you miss the concert in summer, then you can experience the "heroes of the folk music" in October at the Kastelruther Spatzen festival in the stronghold Kastelruth - for fans the top of folk music in the year.
The Völser innkeepers call every year the "Gastronomical October", where you can enjoy plenty of fine South Tyrolean delicacies according to the original recipe.
You must have experienced it: the driving down of the cattle is one of the most important peasant traditions of the Alpine region. Be there when the magnificently decorated cattle on the first Sunday in October is rubbed back to the valley. A big folk festival with grilled specialties and live music are of course part of the event.

From my experience, I'll tell a story about diversity from where I grew up in JTF2. A diverse force in the military improves the possibility of successful mission outcomes. There's no question about that. It's not just gender diversity. There are many forms of diversity: operational diversity, educational diversity, linguistic diversity, cultural diversity, experiential diversity, and the list goes on. Gender diversity is one of those areas.
The day I joined, and having a lot of people like me, that got us something. What we get now is a much richer, more complete set of solutions, because when I look around, the teams are more diverse, and it comes from that.
Anita Vandenbeld Liberal Ottawa West—Nepean, ON
Speaking of linguistic diversity, you mentioned there are also those who are coming to Saint-Jean and other places for French and English language training. Can you elaborate a bit on that?
Director General, International Security Policy, Assistant Deputy Minister, Policy, Department of National Defence
MGen Jocelyn Paul
We've been working on that program for many years. I visited the classroom for the first time a few months ago, and I was really impressed. I ended up presiding over the graduation ceremony. Here we have people coming from Southeast Asia, the Middle East. They show up in Canada almost incapable of speaking both official languages. As I was presiding over the graduation, we had two keynote speakers. Both of them were making amazing, outstanding remarks in both French and English. One of them was a lady from Southeast Asia. She couldn't speak French at all when she came. There's no connective tissue between the language she was raised with and French, but that young lady, within six or seven months, ended up almost mastering French. I was impressed by her. I reflected on my own challenges learning English as I was growing up. I was a little bit embarrassed to be honest with you.
This is a fantastic program, and the beauty of it, from a long-term perspective, is that you now have leaders in multiple armed forces around the world who went through Saint-Jean 10, 15, 20 or 25 years ago. This is a fantastic military diplomacy instrument. We are making friends around the world and it's a long-term investment.
The Chair Liberal Karen McCrimmon
Thank you very much, Mr. Paul.
Mr. Boudrias, you have the floor.
Michel Boudrias Bloc Terrebonne, QC
Thank you, Madam Chair.
There's a lot of talk about fairly standard training in the mission. I don't have the list with me, but I remember having already consulted it with regard to transmissions or specializations by trade. However, in the current context, do we have what in the good old days was called operational co-operation and mentoring directly at the front line in support of the Iraqi army?
March 9th, 2020 / 4:45 p.m.
The answer is no. Even our special forces aren't doing what we call in English
"accompany". They train, advise and assist.
They don't accompany.
On the side of the traditional armed forces, we obviously do not carry out operations with the Iraqis. We train them on different bases. Then they join battle groups and carry out their own operations, but not with the Canadian Armed Forces. So the answer is no.
Thank you, General.
Mr. Bezan.
James Bezan Conservative Selkirk—Interlake—Eastman, MB
I have a quick question about military intelligence. We have operations in Kuwait, Iraq, Jordan and Lebanon. We have eyes and ears on the ground. Are we collecting good intel on Hezbollah, Hamas and especially ISIS? I'm interested in our operations and the protection required for our forces in Jordan and Lebanon. What type of intel are we collecting and sharing with our allies?
That's a very broad question, and I wouldn't be able to do it complete justice.
At the tactical level, there is an enterprise that exists on the ground. It's called Combined Joint Task Force-Operation Inherent Resolve. The nations that form that coalition share intelligence. Intelligence is created and shared at the tactical level. That's all governed by how we are allowed to share Canadian intelligence, information sharing agreements, etc., which we follow rigorously and to the letter. Intelligence is also shared within more bespoke groups, like the Five Eyes coalition.
Yes, I was just going to say the Five Eyes too.
Yes, and we have a special relationship and we share special intelligence, if you will, and that's extremely helpful. That's probably among the most valuable.
I am always concerned about the level of sharing, especially with our American counterparts. I have asked General McKenzie on a number of occasions to ensure that he is doing everything possible to ensure the American enterprise is sharing as much as they can with us, and not reverting to "no foreign" as a reflex. I think that's constant pressure and I'm happy with where central command is at. I think we could always be better and that's why we're putting pressure on.
Intelligence is lifeblood to military operations. Especially in periods like now, when situations may be a little more uncertain than usual, intelligence has to be as good as it can be. It's lifeblood for us as we try to figure out what's happening and how we're going to readapt. I'm very pleased with where we're at, so the sharing is good.
The last point is that for the first time we are distributing some key intelligence functions back to Canada. There are certain things we're doing that we used to put people forward and do that function forward. Now by dint of advanced technologies and smarter ways of doing business, some things we're doing back in my headquarters building in Ottawa directly support the mission forward.
That's an interesting thing to think about—how we can save some of the workforce from having to deploy by leveraging better technology at home and distributing the job.
Is CSE still playing a part in that intelligence gathering and sharing it with National Defence and the Canadian Armed Forces?
Yes, exactly. It's a whole-of-government effort ultimately and goes right to the intelligence assessment organization within the Privy Council Office. It's absolutely more than just a military thing.
That's fantastic.
It's interesting when we look at the destabilizing effects going on right now between Turkey and Syria and the Russian influence, and we have Hezbollah, of course, operating throughout the region. It's critical that we have those agreements and the robust sharing of intelligence with the Five Eyes partners, and the Two Eyes.
That's good. Thank you.
Mr. Spengemann.
Sven Spengemann Liberal Mississauga—Lakeshore, ON
I want to take a moment to reposition some of the conversation we had about Iran-Iraq relations. These are two countries that historically, culturally, religiously and economically are highly interdependent, with periods of conflict. One of the holiest sites in Shia Islam is in Najaf, Iraq. There are significant pilgrimages from Iran to Iraq. There are high-ranking officials in the current Iraqi government who have spent substantial periods of time in Iran. There are, of course, concerns about Shia militia, and I am very grateful, Lieutenant-General Rouleau, for your comments.
Shia militia have been a live issue since at least 1991, the Shia uprising in the south. If you're telling us that you're concerned about large-scale Shia militia I think this committee should take very careful note of that, potentially even greater note than the current state of Daesh. I think the more successful periods of Iraqi stable politics since 2003 have been periods where the Iraqi Shia militia have been able to stand down through calibrated negotiations at various tracts. The risk now is whether they will stand up again. Is there dissatisfaction? Are there reasons for them to become more active, and if so, what does that mean for Canada, for NATO?
We're currently in a stalemate in Baghdad, with Mohammed Allawi having stood down a week ago, saying he's not going to be their guy.
Are there mechanisms to go to the regional level, to the governor level, to the provinces of Iraq to build relationships on security and governance and human development? If things aren't moving in Baghdad, do we have other channels to reach out to other parts and micromanage—if that's the right term—relationships with commanders of Shia militia, or other channels that could be constructive or do us harm? Is there a strategy or capacity for that?
Director General, Middle East, Middle East Bureau, Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development
Sandra McCardell
I'll start and then my colleagues can continue on the military aspects.
We do have relationships at the regional level in Iraq. Much of our programming since 2016 has taken place outside the capital city. We have worked with governance, particularly on decentralization of power and trying to share the example of our federalist structure with regions in Iraq and seeing if that might be a mechanism to try to bridge the sectarian divides with which we are so familiar. We do have those networks.
We have mechanisms to improve the quality of life of Iraqis. We have our development funds and we are providing humanitarian assistance.
I think you'll likely agree that's no substitute for a functioning state-level government or a prime minister who is empowered to take decisions on the fate of his country. On that, regrettably, we remain unable to persuade the Iraqis to come together behind a single leader, as others are.
On the ground the Canadian Armed Forces, in Operation Impact, don't have responsibility for a geographical area or a functional area. We're not in charge of fires for the whole coalition. We don't have to look after Anbar province. It's not structured that way, so we're working on a number of different bases in a number of different areas.
I would say the answer to your question is no. We don't engage with regional governors because we're more or less within the coalition construct. The Combined Joint Task Force-OIR has, on behalf of all of us coalition members, a responsibility to have relationships below the federal level. That I can assure you, but it doesn't fall to the Canadian Armed Forces per se.
Is there anything else you want to say about the Iraqi militias and the level of your concern? Is there anything this committee could pick up on or potentially assist with?
No, sir. You're obviously very au fait in what's happening there. There's nothing that jumps to mind beyond what I said about being very concerned about that particular group.
Okay. Thank you.
Go ahead, Mr. Baker.
Yvan Baker Liberal Etobicoke Centre, ON
Thank you, Chair.
You've talked about a number of threats to peace and security in the area. What would you say is the biggest threat to peace and security in the region?
The biggest threat for peace and security in the Middle East.... This will give me the opportunity to just inform you that, as we mentioned earlier, the Middle East strategy through which we have been working will come to a conclusion at the end of fiscal year 2020-21. In fact, we are doing reflection now on what we think is at the core of what would bring stability to the Middle East.
It will escape no one's notice that it remains an area that has been unstable for a long time, unable to provide services to its people, which has brought us and our Canadian Armed Forces partners back repeatedly to the region.
There are some things we cannot change. The geography of the Middle East we cannot change. The battle for influence amongst regional powers we cannot change. What we can work on, I think, is strengthening the countries within the region. That's what our partnership under the Middle East strategy has been about.
Global Affairs, for our part, is focused on programming, either to strengthen the governance of the countries involved or to work on, specifically, stabilization programs to give them the capacity to provide security to the limits of their borders—in some cases very much so, with the road in Jordan that the general mentioned. We're also trying to make sure there are the tools to govern properly.
As far as what Canada can do from the outside is concerned, we really need to focus on building the capacity of these states to govern effectively, including all of their diverse populations and in a way in which they can manage relationships with their neighbours.
In summary, although there are many who could write their Ph.D. dissertations on it, allow me to say that there is a range of reasons, but what's important is that Canada find its place where it can contribute to peace, long term.


The owners of Tenuta Santo Pietro recently completed a loving, and total, restoration of the property to maintain the integrity of its historic 13th-century structure.

Frank Gore becomes 49ers' franchise rushing leader
Gore ran for a 2-yard gain early in the second quarter Sunday against St. Louis to give him 7,345 career yards rushing, moving him past late Hall of Famer Joe Perry (7,344) for most in franchise history.
The 28-year-old Gore, a two-time Pro Bowl selection in his seventh NFL season, has said it was a goal for this season to become the career rushing leader -- though getting back to the playoffs is a bigger priority.
Gore and his teammates are wearing No. 34 helmet decals this season in honor of Perry, the first player with back-to-back 1,000-yard rushing seasons and nicknamed "The Jet" for his sensational speed. He died in April at age 84.


Sending children through university is a major financial commitment for any parent to undertake, so they should be fully aware of the financial implications and be confident that they can afford the fees throughout the selected term.
Mr and Mrs Shah live in the Far East and have one son aged 3. Mr Shah is 36 years old and is an engineer and Mrs Shah is 32 and is a teacher.
Taking everything into account they calculate that current costs could be in the region of USD56,000 for the first year. Armed with this information, they contact their financial adviser to discuss their options. Their adviser has suggested that they use Quantum to build up an education fund to pay for these fees when they become due.
In addition, both Mr and Mrs Shah accept that the costs of funding a university education for their son will continue to increase each year, so with their advisers help, agree that an annual increase of 7% is a reasonable assumption to make. Using the information provided, their adviser calculates what the future costs could be when their son is ready to start university by using the Education fees calculator.
The results produced show that the total estimated cost could be over USD688,000. Using the Quantum illustration system, a monthly premium of USD2,510 over 15 years is required to meet these estimated costs assuming a growth rate of 5% per year.
The figures produced in this case study assume that the university expenses increase at a constant rate each year. In reality, annual increases if any are prone to variance and future increases cannot be predicted.
If your clients have children, they need to know their onions.

< Maryland
Criminal Justice Reform in Louisiana
Maine >
Louisiana holds almost 40,000 prisoners behind bars, costing the state $600-700 million a year and making it the state with the highest incarceration rate in the country. Contributing to this overcrowded prison population, about 15,000 people are released from prison or jail in Louisiana each year, and almost half are rearrested within five years.
Louisiana State Legislature established The Louisiana Justice Reinvestment Task Force: a bipartisan group made up of court members, law enforcement, and community members created to study the state's criminal justice system and recommend strategic changes for the budget. The group is charged with developing recommendations to reduce the prison population, improve public safety (such as creating pretrial diversion programs), reduce sentencing rules, and establish programs to reduce recidivism.
The largest maximum-security prison, Angola Prison Rodeo, established the Re-Entry Court program. This program allows for ex-offenders to develop skills and gain knowledge needed for employment after prison. In concordance, the community has come together to help these ex-offenders find and maintain jobs.
In 2017, Louisiana passed a 10-bill package, striving to reform the criminal justice system. Reforms in this package include:
Eliminating mandatory minimum prison terms for select crimes committed by non-violent offenders;
Increasing the number of people on probation and parole by 1,200 over the next two years;
Allowing judges to reduce and waive fines for ex-offenders who cannot pay; Making business licenses more attainable to ex-convicts; and
Diverting people with three or four felony convictions to mental health, substance abuse, or some other community-based treatment program if the district attorney agrees.
These reforms have significantly reduced the prison population and saved $12 million dollars to be reinvested in re-entry and prison diversion programs, crime victim services, and improvements to the Department of Corrections.
In 2018, lawmakers passed measures to protect incarcerated women. These measures include providing free feminine hygiene products and toothpaste, and restricting male guards from entering where a woman is in a state of undress, and conducting pat-down searches unless completely necessary.
Just recently (2020), Louisiana passed legislation that reduces parole supervision after a certain amount of time has been served. By reducing parole supervision, this bill will significantly cut probation costs. Additionally, lawmakers passed a clean slate package to aid in the reentry process. The reforms of this package include:
Creating the Clean Slate Task Force;
Permitting the state's central repository to share de-identified data for the purpose of examination pursuant to the mandate of the Clean Slate Task Force;
Extending the eligibility for expungements to individuals who receive alternatives to incarceration, such as recovery treatment programs;
Removing the requirement of proof of continuous employment for at least ten years to qualify for certain types of expungement; and
Removing some limitations on expungement.
Louisiana's efforts to reform the criminal justice system have already yielded results. The 2017 reforms have significantly reduced the prison population and saved $12 million dollars to be reinvested in re-entry and prison diversion programs, crime victim services, and improvements to the Department of Corrections. According to the 2019 Justice Reinvestment Reforms Report, there has also been a decrease in nonviolent offenses and in sentence length for nonviolent offenses.
Identification of legislation should not be considered an endorsement of support of, or opposition to, such bills.

va ser un violinista i professor hongarès.

Va començar a tocar el violí als set anys. Als 10 anys va ser traslladat a Viena per estudiar amb Jakob Grün. Als 17 anys va marxar a París i es va incorporar al Conservatori de París, estudiant amb Martin Pierre Marsick. Es va instal·lar a Berlín i el 1934 a Londres.

Va ser conegut per les seves actuacions en solitari en una àmplia gamma de repertori (de música barroca a contemporània), guanyant fama com a intèrpret de música de cambra. També va impartir classes a Bucarest (1897-1902), Amsterdam (1903-08), Filadèlfia (1924-28) i Berlín ("Hochschule fuer Musik", 1929-34). Va publicar diversos llibres d'ensenyament, incloent-hi "Die Kunst des violin-spiels" (L'art de tocar el violí, 1923), en el qual va defensar el violinista com a artista més que virtuós. Entre els seus molts alumnes hi havia tant intèrprets com a pedagogs. Va dir que el seu alumne preferit era l'australiana Alma Moodie, que va aconseguir una gran fama a la dècada de 1920 i 1930, però que no va fer cap enregistrament i és poc conegut avui dia. En les seves memòries va dir: "... hi havia sobretot Henry [és a dir, Henri] Temianka, que va fer un gran reconeixement a l'Institut [Curtis]: tant a nivell musical com tècnic, posseïa un model de col·lecció de talents".

Un dels pocs enregistraments de Flesch és una interpretació molt distingida del gran Concerto de violí D menor de Bach (Columbia) en el qual va tocar el segon violí al gran Joseph Szigeti, amb Walter Goehr dirigint una orquestra de cordes anònima de Londres a finals dels anys trenta.

Va ser consultat (com Oskar Adler) per Louis Krasner sobre dificultats tècniques al Concert per a violí d'Alban Berg, que Krasner estrenaria. El sistema d'escala de Carl Flesch és un element bàsic de la pedagogia del violí.

Va ser propietari del "Brancaccio Stradivarius", però va haver de vendre-ho el 1928 després de perdre tots els seus diners a la Borsa de Nova York.

Flesch va viure a Londres durant la dècada de 1930 i més tard va ser arrestat per la Gestapo als Països Baixos, va ser posat en llibertat i va morir a Lucerna, Suïssa, al novembre de 1944.

Maui's Front Street has been named to a national list of the 10 Great Streets for 2011. The selection was made by the American Planning Association (APA), under the organization's Great Places in America program.
The recognition comes just weeks before a Halloween event returns to Front Street in full capacity on October 31st. The Halloween festivities have drawn tens of thousands of people to the street in its heyday.
The extended closure of the street was denied in recent years amid controversy over cultural sensitivity, skimpy costumes and lewd behavior. This year, county officials say concerns have been addressed, and are hoping the return will generate an economic boost for business.

The Great Streets award recognizes places that exemplify exceptional character and highlight the role planners and planning play in creating communities of lasting value.
APA selected Front Street for its history, amenities, revitalization efforts, and continuous use by multiple generations for a variety of purposes. The picturesque views and mild climate were also considered as contributing factors.
"The planning success of Front Street is due to years of effective partnerships between non-profit organizations, government leaders and countless community members. With everyone striving to balance Front Street's historical, cultural and commercial needs we will ensure that this special seaside treasure lives on," said Maui County Council Member Elle Cochran.
Through the Great Places in America program, APA recognizes unique and exemplary streets, neighborhoods, and public spaces. These authentic places showcase diverse architectural styles, promote community involvement and accessibility, and foster economic opportunity.

Since APA began Great Places in America in 2007, 50 neighborhoods, 50 streets and 40 public spaces have been designated in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
"Nearly five decades of preservation and revitalization efforts have uncovered and saved more than 1,300 years of culture and heritage," said APA Chief Executive Officer Paul Farmer, FAICP.
Front Street's architecture and sidewalks reflect Lahaina's chronological history starting with the Moku'ula archaeological site to buildings from the 1830s and later.
Moku'ula, located at the intersection of Front and Shaw Streets, is a sacred island that was was once home to high chiefs from the 16th to 19th centuries. The island was buried years ago and filled for a county park. Efforts are currently underway to restore the site to its former grandeur.
Lahaina also served as the capital for the Hawaiian Kingdom from 1802-1842 before government activities were moved to Honolulu.
"From its start as the home of Native Hawaiian royalty to its days as a whaling outpost and missionary stronghold, and later a plantation town, to its current status as a tourist attraction, Front Street has embraced its history while accommodating more contemporary uses," said Farmer.

Front Street is characterized by wooden storefronts, second-story balconies, parks, art galleries, eateries, residential quarters, and views of the West Maui Mountains, Lahaina Harbor and the island of Lanai.
In 1965, Lahaina was listed on the National Register and, three years later, was the focus of an architectural style book designed to protect plantation-era vernacular architecture.
Front Street underwent a major $11 million facelift in 1997 that included widening sidewalks and burying most electric utility lines. Other planning efforts have addressed density and commercial development issues, and established sign guidelines.
The nine other Great Streets selected by the APA for 2011 include: Santa Monica Boulevard, West Hollywood, CA; U Street N.W., Washington, DC; Main Street, Galena, IL; Main Street, Nantucket, MA; Washington Avenue, St. Louis, MO; Market Street and Market Square, Portsmouth, NH; Downtown Woodstock Streetscape, Woodstock, VT; King Street, Alexandria, VA; and Davis Street, Culpeper, VA.
