Juba, South Sudan - On the side of a road a man stands by a wall ready to fight. He picks up a piece of broken glass to defend himself.
The white cloth around him falls off and he is now bare-chested, facing five policemen. They are wearing medical gloves.
"I don't want to go. Leave me alone," the man yells.
Dr Atong Ayuel, one of only three practising South Sudanese psychiatrists in the country, watches the scene unfold.
Since 2015, she has led a project supporting mentally ill homeless people, providing baths, fresh clothes, a medical check and long lasting anti-psychotics if necessary.
"It's okay. Leave him alone. We don't force anyone to come," Dr Atong* tells the police and then boards a bus.
As part of the initiative, Atong, with a group of psychologists and policemen, hop onto a Juba's Teaching Hospital bus three days a month and look out for people to help.
They treat 20 to 30 homeless patients with mental conditions a month. Over time, many have become willing participants, with some returning to families and jobs, but that's not always the case.
After being treated at hospital, they are usually returned to where they were picked up.
"We don't have the infrastructure to keep them," Atong says. There are only 12 beds and two nurses in the mental health ward at the hospital she works at.
Aside from overseeing the GEMS (Goats, Education, Medicine and Sustainability) - funded project, Atong, 40, treats hospital patients and people around the country, and heads the government's mental health department.
The two other practicing psychiatrists are Dr George Nazario and Dr Richard Wani.
George treats patients at Juba's main prison and the outpatient clinic. Richard works at the hospital and University of Juba.
As the director of the mental health department, Atong develops policies for the country's 12.5 million people, many of whom are trying to recover from the trauma caused by decades of conflict and displacement.
South Sudan suffered two civil wars before it won independence from Sudan in 2011, and is only now regaining its footing from its own civil war that lasted from 2013 until 2018. The country's three practicing psychiatrists and 29 psychologists are all in Juba.
After independence, the South Sudanese government had to create a healthcare system from scratch. Thirteen years later, Atong and her colleagues are still struggling to provide mental healthcare.
The Juba Teaching Hospital is the only public medical facility that provides psychiatric care; the availability of psychotropic drugs is inconsistent and limited.
If the 12-bed ward is full, or if a patient is not eligible to take a bed, the mentally ill are often detained in Juba's Central Prison.
Others are transferred to prison from medical facilities or taken to the detention centre directly by family members.
In May 2016, according to rights group Amnesty, the prison held 66 male and 16 female mentally ill patients.
While those numbers have dipped, Atong expects them to rise once again given the lack of resources.
Outside of Juba, psychiatrist Jairam Ramakrishnan, a New Zealand doctor who works for Doctors Without Borders (MSF), has been based at a clinic at a Protection of Civilians (PoC) site in Malakal, in Upper Nile State, a highly contested area, for more than a year.
"On a monthly basis we get anywhere between 30 to 40 new patients," he tells Al Jazeera.
Including follow-up consultations and first visits, there are about 250 mental health cases a month.
The site is home to about 25,000 displaced people. When the United Nations force in South Sudan (UNMISS) established the camp after an outbreak of violence in 2014, improving living conditions wasn't a priority.
To recover, Ramakrishnan says, patients need "basics like food, housing, safety, security, education transfer and employment. [...] So, even though a person may have a good chance of recovery from an acute severe mental illness", it is difficult to provide a setting where this is possible.
"Social aspects play a big role for mental illness and social support systems are very weak in a protracted conflict."
As well as battling for more resources, the few psychiatrists in charge also have to tackle misconceptions.
"Mental illness is a huge problem in South Sudan," Atong says. "We have over 60 tribes in South Sudan with different beliefs."
Most communities believe in supernatural possession or punishment by higher powers, as opposed to accepting a mental illness diagnosis, Atong says.
Paradise Agaak Henry, one of Atong's patients in Juba, has been diagnosed with schizophrenia.
She is in her 20s, loves fashion and beauty products, and is a keen student enrolled in paediatrics at the University of Upper Nile.
"What makes me sad is to see what my former schoolmates are doing now. Some of them have finished their universities and I'm still in my first year," she says, mourning the time she spent taking care of her mental health. "The devil attacked me and I tried to die. I didn't eat or drink for four days."
Her neighbours took her to church where believers tried to rid her of what they thought was an evil spirit.
"They just prayed and cried. They beat me."
Her family later brought her to hospital, where she spent two months in Atong's ward.
"It's a stigma to be diagnosed as mentally ill," Atong says, "people believe that it runs in the family. So when a family member is diagnosed, it could be harder for other family members to get married for example."
People would rather be known to be possessed than have a treatable mental illness, she explains.
Paradise is improving. Asked whether faith or the psychiatrist helped, she says: "First of all Jesus, and then Dr Atong."
This is my country. It's the country I have. We've had a bad start, but we're committed to create a better South Sudan for all.
Stigma is not limited to patients.
Medical professionals who choose psychiatry are looked down on by their peers, Atong explains, and their salaries often don't match their colleagues.
Atong had earlier chosen paediatrics, but changed track when she encountered a mentally ill patient, who ended up being sent to prison.
Her colleagues were shocked to see her "waste her talent" after she graduated second-best in her year from the University of Bahr Al Ghazal College.
There is also a lack of accessible training, but over the last two years Atong has managed to include psychiatry as part of the curriculum at the universities of Bahr el Ghazal, Juba and Upper Nile.
In 2017, to help doctors at least identify mental illnesses, the World Health Organization (WHO) committed to supporting the country's health ministry in training supervisors and healthcare workers across the country.
"However, due to limited financial resources to support procurement of medication, supervision of health workers and procurement of other materials, largely not much could be done until the fourth quarter of 2018," Dr Joseph Mogga of the WHO told Al Jazeera, adding the organisation would offer further support this year.
Atong welcomes WHO's support. She knows the lack of funds makes it hard to move the needle.
The country's 2017-18 budget allocated two percent to the health sector - or about $2.7m. None of that is currently allocated for mental health.
Atong is well aware of underinvestment in healthcare but small victories keep her going.
"Since the current minister of health [Dr Riek Gai Kok] came into power, he put mental health as a priority," she says. He established the department of mental health within his ministry.
In 2014 South Sudan commemorated mental health day for the first time.
"Even in Western countries, mental healthcare always lacks [lags] behind a little compared to general healthcare."
In a country where general healthcare isn't easy to come by, "you can imagine how difficult it is to establish a mental healthcare system", says Jairam of MSF.
But there are promising plans for 2019.
India's Central Public Works Department (CPWD) has taken on the challenge of building a new psychiatric hospital in Juba, next to the current psychiatric ward.
Atong plans to create a mental health policy within the national general health policy.
"This is my country. It's the country I have... We've had a bad start, but we're committed to create a better South Sudan for all," she says before rushing off to see another patient.

U.S.|Idaho Republican, Appealing to Right, Enters Race to Replace Cantor
https://nyti.ms/1ky63Td
Idaho Republican, Appealing to Right, Enters Race to Replace Cantor
By Jonathan Weisman
WASHINGTON — Representative Raúl R. Labrador, a Republican of Idaho who has barely served two terms in Congress, jumped into the race for House majority leader on Friday, offering himself as the more conservative alternative who could pull the House rightward in the wake of Representative Eric Cantor's loss in a primary.
"The message from Tuesday is clear — Americans are looking for a change in the status quo," Mr. Labrador, a former immigration lawyer elected in the Tea Party wave of 2010, said in a statement. "President Obama and the Democrats have had their chance and they have failed. Republicans must be willing to take these challenges head on with new leadership, fresh ideas and a different approach."
While some of those conservative lawmakers elected in 2010 were hoping that the House leadership elections on Thursday would offer them the chance to reclaim their influence on Capitol Hill, few of them give Mr. Labrador much of a chance against the current House majority whip, Representative Kevin McCarthy of California. Though Tea Party activists provided the energy and votes for Mr. Cantor's ouster, the elections might be more of a plea for a place at the leadership table.
Supporters of Mr. McCarthy, who confidently traveled home to his district in Bakersfield for the weekend, said Friday that the Californian had all but sewed up the votes he needs.
"We have got to have an alternative," Representative Louie Gohmert, Republican of Texas, said on Glenn Beck's conservative radio show. "I mean, for us as a party in Congress to send the message that we didn't learn a blessed thing from this amazing election result, we aren't paying attention."

House conservatives — lacking a rationale to fight Mr. McCarthy, a well-liked member of leadership who has raised millions of dollars for Republican incumbents — have begun protesting that his voting record is actually to the left of Mr. Cantor's.
FreedomWorks, which has provided financial support for Tea Party candidates, immediately began trying to generate support for Mr. Labrador through its websites and email lists. "Now that grass-roots conservatives FIRED Eric Cantor, we need a new majority leader in the House of Representatives," FreedomWorks' website said Friday.
Matt Kibbe, the group's president and chief executive, said that he did not have great qualms with Mr. McCarthy's ideology, but that he was more about politics than ideas. "The Republican penchant for just choosing the next guy in line hasn't proven to be a great strategy, and it hasn't picked good leadership," Mr. Kibbe said.
But Mr. Labrador's path to victory is steep, especially in the few days before House Republicans gather to elect Mr. Cantor's replacement. Mr. McCarthy has been preparing for months to move up from No. 3 in the Republican leadership to No. 2 in the event that Speaker John A. Boehner of Ohio would retire after the November elections.
Conservative Republicans in the House pleaded Friday for a delay in the voting. Some grumbled that the campaign by the college professor David Brat to unseat Mr. Cantor had ousted the one member of House Republican leadership willing to listen to the House's most conservative members. Instead, the House will end up elevating a leader with a less conservative record and less patience for the far-right flank.
For his part, Mr. Boehner has remained firm that he wanted to get it done quickly and minimize disruption.

Mr. McCarthy spent much of the day calling members and shoring up support, said a Republican aide close to the majority whip. McCarthy supporters predicted that Mr. Labrador would muster no more than a few dozen votes.
Some lawmakers questioned whether his run was really a quest to win the majority leader's post or merely to raise his own profile. His decision to jump in was widely seen as proof that more experienced conservative members, like Representatives Jim Jordan of Ohio or Tom Price of Georgia, had rebuffed overtures to run from other conservatives.
Tea Party groups off Capitol Hill may believe Mr. Labrador can win, and they will pressure House conservatives to join the campaign. But ultimately, supporting him could hurt more conservative members with the House leadership.
Mr. Labrador tried on Friday to at least engage the Republican conference in a debate over ideas. He said the party needed to address issues like upward income mobility among the poor and middle-class economic insecurity. Born the son of a single mother in Puerto Rico, he has seen himself as an ambassador to young and minority voters out of reach to traditional Republicans.
"I am running for majority leader because I want to help create a vision of growth and opportunity for everyone and start getting to work for the American people," he said.
Representative Justin Amash, Republican of Michigan, rushed to champion Mr. Labrador's candidacy. Mr. Amash, after all, voted last year to make him speaker of the House.
"We can't respond to a stunning loss by giving a pat on the back and promotion to the same team," Mr. Amash said of Mr. Cantor's defeat. "It's time for someone new, someone conservative, someone who will put forward a fresh agenda, and someone we know is a proven and talented spokesman. That man is Raúl Labrador."

Frequently asked questions at rehab centers in Hoopa, CA:
Do rehab centers in Hoopa offer both drug and alcohol addiction treatment?
Rehab centers in Hoopa typically have programs that can treat all kinds of substance abuse, which includes both alcohol and drug addiction. A typical rehab center has qualified staff that will work with addicts and their families to create an individualized approach to treatment. Sometimes, the treatment plan will include both alcohol and drug abuse, while other times it may be for only drug or only alcohol addiction.
Does rehab include detox?
Around 25% of rehab centers in Hoopa and throughout California are considered detox facilities and include detoxification as part of their treatment. If the rehab center you've chosen does not offer detox, you may have to detox at another center.
Do drug rehabs in Hoopa use medication assisted treatment?
Around 50% of Hoopa rehab centers also have medication assisted treatment available. Other rehabs may use holistic substance use treatment approaches. The two most used medications in drug rehabs in California are Methadone and Suboxone, while there could also be Buprenorphine or Naloxone used as well. In alcohol rehabs, Antabuse (also known as Disulfiram) is often used, as well as Naltrexone and Campral (also known as Acamprosate).
Are luxury rehabs in Hoopa better than standard rehab centers?
Hoopa rehab centers can indeed come in two forms: luxury and standard. While the luxury rehab centers are most expensive and provide more treatment therapies, that by itself is not a guarantee that they will be more effective than standard drug or alcohol rehabs. Ultimately, the addicted individual has to be committed to treatment, and can be cured in either type of rehab center.
Are there drug or alcohol rehabs in Hoopa for teenagers?
Hoopa rehab centers can support various age groups and populations. There are some rehab facilities in the state of California that do provide treatment only to teenagers, while others that may be only catering their service to female or male addicts.
Should I choose an inpatient or outpatient rehab center?
An inpatient drug or alcohol rehab in Hoopa will provide more chance for full success in addiction treatment. Choosing an outpatient facility has its benefits, such as being able to maintain existing life and work schedule, but for Hoopa residents or those who want to rehabilitate from drug or alcohol addiction in Hoopa, an inpatient facility will be the most effective.

These decayed brownish fragments, now sometimes hardly recognisable as glass but originally pale green, were made in the glass-houses operating in the forests of northern Europe. In England the principal centre of manufacture was the Weald, where these may well have been made, although they might equally be French in origin.

Here is a topic that impresses many modern readers of the Gospels and makes others uncomfortable. Stories of healings abound not only in the text but also in the surrounding culture. What can we put together as an overall picture of Jesus from this angle, and how do healings relate to other things he said and did? What can we make of stories of even more extraordinary happenings like a storm stilled or large crowds provided with food?

Q: Can SQS trigger an event in AWS event bridge service? In my usecase I want to trigger an aws-lambda function if sqs payload message contain a specific attribute. For example following is an sqs payload
{
   "attribute1" : "test1",
   "attribure2" : "test2"
}

if sqs payload contains attribute named "attribure1" and its value is equal to "test1" , I want to trigger a lambda function named testLambda.
Can we create such rules with AWS event-bridge service(https://aws.amazon.com/eventbridge/)?

A: SQS trigger do not work on data inside the message, rather on the submission of the message into the queue.

Dilemmas of the High Achieving Chicana: The Double-Bind Factor in Male/Female Relationships
González, Judith T. (University of Arizona, Mexican American Studies and Research Center, 1987)
The central research question of this exploratory study is to determine if college educated, ethnically identified and preferred endogamous Chicanas experience significantly more psychological distress due to a conflict between their educational achievements and beliefs that Chicano males are threatened by high achieving women. The specific perceptions are: that Mexican American males feel threatened by their educational accomplishments, tend to exclude them from political and organizational activities, and that college attainment will cause them to be seen as elitist by the larger Chicano community. This study uses descriptive and correlational analysis to explore the relationship between ethnic identification, preferred endogamy and perceptions that Chicanas high achievements pose a threat to Chicano males as predictive factors for higher psychological distress. The sample consists of 508 randomly selected Chicanas at five colleges, varying in selectivity from a private university to a community college. The majority of respondents are single and under thirty. A sample of 160 Chicano males were also randomly selected from three of the same five college campuses and were used to make comparisons on the threat dimension. The instrument is a mail questionnaire.
The Education of Immigrant Children: The Impact of Age at Arrival
González, Arturo; University of Arizona, Mexican American Studies & Research Center (University of Arizona, Mexican American Studies and Research Center, 1998)
The family reunification provision in U.S. immigration laws allows foreign-born children of immigrants to enter the U.S. and attend American schools. The total number of school years completed by immigrant children, however, is affected by their age at arrival. Age at arrival also affects the percentage of schooling that is attained in the U.S. This implies that immigrants with more U.S. schooling will earn more than other immigrants, holding total education constant, as long as the returns to U.S. schooling are greater than the returns to foreign schooling. Using data from the 1980 and 1990 Census, I find a negative relationship between age at arrival and education for Mexican, European and Pacific Islander and other immigrants that arrive shortly after the start of the first grade. Mexican immigrants as a whole, however, lose tile greatest amount of education from delayed entry. Estimates of the returns to American schooling indicate that those with at least a high school diploma benefit from additional years in U.S. schools. However, the added tax revenue from the increased earnings is not always greater than the cost of additional years of American schooling. Only for Mexican immigrants is it the case that the tax revenues outweigh the fiscal costs of more American education.

Flexible Labor and Underinvestment in Women's Education on the U.S-Mexico Border
O'Leary, Anna Ochoa; Valdez-Gardea, Gloria Ciria; González, Norma; University of Arizona, Mexican American Studies and Research Center; Colegio de Sonora, Urban and Environmental Studies Program; University of Utah, Department of Education, Culture and Society (University of Arizona, Mexican American Studies and Research Center, 2005)
For the past 35 years, borderland industry has opened employment opportunities for women in the community of Nogales, Arizona. However, the expansion of free trade with the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) has aggravated economic instability by promoting the flexible use of labor, a practice that women have increasingly accommodated. Case studies of women engaged in the retail and maquiladora industries illustrate the interplay between flexible employment, reproduction, and education. These cases suggest that a strong connection between flexible employment and reproduction is sustained by ideologies that see these as mutually complimentary. At the same time, the connections between education and employment and reproduction activities are notably absent or weak. We argue that investing in the education of women, which could lead to more predictable employment, is in this way subverted by regional economic instability. The alienation of education from the other two realms of women's activities works to the advantage of flexible employment practices and advances the underdevelopment of human capital on the U.S.-Mexico border.
Hispanic Businesses in Tucson Since 1854
Amado, Melissa; University of Arizona (University of Arizona, Mexican American Studies and Research Center, 1988)
Hispanic ownership of businesses has existed in Tucson prior to the Gadsden Purchase of 1854, which allowed the United States to acquire Tucson and part of Southern Arizona. Although ranching and agriculture were main sources of income for this group of pioneer settlers, they were able to diversify their wealth into other sectors of the economy. As the Hispanic population became integrated into American society, an evolution of minority identity towards business ownership occurred. Starting in the twentieth century, Mexican Americans tended to operate mostly in the service industry, such as barber shops and grocery stores. There were a few Hispanic lawyers and doctors. However, their numbers were small in compañson to the growing Mexican American and Anglo populations. The Great Depression of the 1930s affected many of these agriculturally oriented Hispanic families. By the 1940s, more Mexican Americans and Anglos were arriving to the area in search of employment. By the 1980s, a trend was evident of a service sector economy for the Tucson labor market. Most of the twenty Hispanic entrepreneurs interviewed for this study were first or second generation Tucsonans, The pioneer Hispanic families are no longer at the forefront of business opportunities. Instead, sonic of the offspring from these pioneer families have gone into other fields or enterprises in order to develop their own entrepreneurial identity. Some of the interviewees that are descendants of these "latecomers" are undecided as to whether they want their children to enter the family business. As a consequence, some of these establishments may end in the next twenty to thirty years. A cycle of continual Hispanic "latecomers" operating businesses may develop in the Tucson area. The consequence could be the lack of a solid economic base for the Hispanic business community.
Hispanic Youth in the Labor Market: An Analysis of High School and Beyond
Fernández, Roberto M.; American Sociological Association (University of Arizona, Mexican American Studies and Research Center, 1985)
The Influence of Cultural Values On Self-Efficacy in Reducing HIV Risk Behaviors
Estrada, Antonio L.; Estrada, Barbara D.; Quintero, Gilbert; University of Arizona, Mexican American Studies & Research Center; University of Arizona, Southwest Institute for Research on Women (University of Arizona, Mexican American Studies and Research Center, 1999)
This study seeks to examine the influence of key cultural values like machismo, familism, traditionalism, and religiosity on self-efficacy in reducing HIV risk among Mexican-origin IDUs. The purpose of this examination hinges on the importance of including cultural concepts/values not only to facilitate process, but also to add a cultural dimension to an HIV/AIDS intervention that may facilitate attitudinal and behavioral change as well. The findings suggest that culturally innovative approaches can facilitate HIV/AIDS risk reduction among male Mexican-origin drug injectors. The importance of key cultural values like machismo is underscored by its association with HIV risk reduction for both sexual and injection related risks. Intervention programs must identify strategies to incorporate cultural values in their research and evaluation of intervention efficacy. Culturally innovative approaches hold the promise of substantially reducing HIV risk behaviors among Hispanic drug injectors, and may hold promise for other populations affected by HIV/AIDS as well.
José Rangel Cantú: South Texas' Fiery Radio Warrior
Larralde, Carlos (University of Arizona, Mexican American Studies and Research Center, 1995)
LULAC and Veterans Organize for Civil Rights in Tempe and Phoenix, 1940-1947
Marín, Christine; Arizona State University (University of Arizona, Mexican American Studies and Research Center, 2001)
World War II had a dramatic impact on Americans, including Mexican Americans in Arizona. It challenged families and communities to make sacrifices during wartime. Mexican Americans served in large numbers and with distinction in the war, and after it ended they sought to defend their rights as Americans, and to eliminate the discriminatory behavior and acts that kept them within ethnic boundaries. The segregation at Tempe Beach, the "brilliant star in Tempe's crown," and its "No Mexicans Allowed" policy, initiated in 1923, was one of them. Another ethnic boundary was the segregated housing policy for veterans established by the City of Phoenix in 1946. In Tempe and Phoenix, the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) Council 110, led by Placida Garcia Smith, and the American Legion Thunderbird Post 41, led by Ray Martinez, were at the front lines in the fight against racism and discrimination in the 1940s. Mexican Americans confronted public elected officials over racist practices and policies of exclusion, and utilized the court system to provide them equal justice under the law. They exercised their right to seek equality after years of segregation, and to secure their civil rights as Americans. Their actions are examples of American-style civic activism, a devotion to the United States and the ideals of freedom and democracy. The search for that freedom and holding the government accountable to its laws and ideals are what drove LULAC Council 110 and American Legion Thunderbird Post 41 as they organized and agitated for the civil rights of Mexican Americans in Tempe and Phoenix during the 1940s.
Mexican American Women and Social Change: The Founding of the Community Service Organization in Los Angeles, An Oral History
Apodaca, Linda M.; California State University, Stanislaus, Ethnic and Women's Studies Department (University of Arizona, Mexican American Studies and Research Center, 1999)
The Community Service Organization, a grassroots social service agency that originated in Los Angeles in the late 1940s, is generally identified by its male leadership. Research conducted for the present oral history, however, indicates that Mexican American women were essential to the founding of the organization, as well as to its success during the forty-six years it was in operation. This paper is a history of the founding of the CSO based on interviews with eleven Mexican American women and one Mexican American man, all of whom were founding members.

Motivators for Colon Cancer Prevention Among Elderly Mexican Americans
González, Judith T.; California State University, Fresno (University of Arizona, Mexican American Studies and Research Center, 1990)
This final report documents the theoretical development and preliminary empirical testing of a model that predicts the conditions under which Hispanics will seek preventive health care. Research shows that Hispanics delay preventive care, resulting in higher morbidity and mortality rates for serious diseases such as cancer. Since many serious diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes and cancer can be prevented or treated more effectively if detected early, it is crucial to understand the motivating forces behind Hispanics' preventive health behavior. The Hispanic model, which is an extension of the Health Behavior in Cancer Prevention Model developed by Atwood, et al. (1986), includes as core variables environmental barriers to access and English-language proficiency, as well as social support, health beliefs, self-efficacy (or perceived skill), health locus of control, and health values. This correlational descriptive study employed snowballing sampling methods and consisted of 199 Hispanics between 49 and 94 years of age. Measures consist of multi-item scales whose content follows that of the Parent Project. The final instruments showed reliability (Alphas between .69 and .95), although the model testing was limited by the exclusion of some constructs that did not demonstrate reliability. The outcome of predisposition to self-care was predicted by utilization barriers to care, Chance Health Locus of Control, and General Health threat, resulting in an R-square of .07. The findings dealing with dietary preferences and preferred dietary modifications also have great implications for interventions aimed at preventing colon cancer among Hispanics. The practical health policy applications of the model are also discussed.
Mujeres en el Cruce: Mapping Family Separation/Reunification at a Time of Border (In)Security
O'Leary, Anna Ochoa; University of Arizona, Mexican American Studies and Research Center (University of Arizona, Mexican American Studies and Research Center, 2007)
In this paper I discuss some of the findings in my study of the encounters between female migrants and immigration enforcement authorities along the U.S.-Mexico border. An objective of the research is to ascertain a more accurate picture of women temporarily suspended in the "intersection" of diametrically opposed processes: immigration enforcement and transnational mobility. Of the many issues that have emerged from this research, family separation is most palpable. This suggests a deeply entrenched relationship between immigration enforcement and the transnationalization of family ties. While this relationship may at first not be obvious, women's accounts of family separation and family reunification show how, in reconciling these contradictory tendencies, migrant mobility is strengthened, which in turn challenges enforcement measures. In this way, the intersection not only sheds light on how opposing forces (enforcement and mobility) converge but also how each is contingent on the other. This analysis is possible in part through the use of a conceptual intersection of diametrically opposed forces, border enforcement and transnational movement, and thus proves useful in examining the transformative nature of globalized spaces.
National Origin Based Variations of Latino Voter Turnout in 1988: Findings from the Latino National Political Survey
Arvizu, John R.; University of Arizona, Department of Political Science (University of Arizona, Mexican American Studies and Research Center, 1994)
The Latino community in the United States, currently estimated at over 23 million, is projected to become the largest minority group in America within the next fifteen years. However, insufficient national-level data on Latinos has resulted in relatively few studies being published on the voting behavior of this increasingly important group. Using data drawn from the first national probability sample of Latinos, the Latino National Political Survey, this paper addresses selected socio-demographic indices correlated with voter turnout. The logistic regression model empirically demonstrates the importance of distinguishing among subgroups and identifies the life-cycle effect as a principle determinant of voter turnout.

Bin Laden Vows Never To Be Captured Alive
Discussion in 'General Discussion' started by ghostrider, Feb 19, 2006.
ghostrider Resident Poltergeist Founding Member
•CAIRO, Egypt — Usama bin Laden promised never to be captured alive and declared the U.S. had resorted to the same "repressive" tactics used by Saddam Hussein, according to an audiotape purportedly by the Al Qaeda leader that was posted Monday on a militant Web site.
The tape appeared to be a complete version of one that was first broadcast Jan. 19 on Al-Jazeera, the pan-Arab satellite channel, in which bin Laden offered the United States a long-term truce but also said his Al Qaeda terror network would soon launch a fresh attack on American soil.
"I have sworn to only live free. Even if I find bitter the taste of death, I don't want to die humiliated or deceived," bin Laden said.
In drawing the comparison to American military behavior in Iraq to that of Saddam, the speaker said:
"The jihad is continuing with strength, for Allah be all the credit, despite all the barbarity, the repressive steps taken by the American Army and its agents, to the extent that there is no longer any mentionable difference between this criminality and the criminality of Saddam."
With the implied criticism of Saddam, bin Laden appeared to be denying assertions by the Bush administration that the former Iraqi leader had ties to Al Qaeda — ties that were given as one rationale for invading Iraq.
The tape's release in January came days after a U.S. airstrike in Pakistan that was targeting bin Laden's deputy, Ayman al-Zawahri, and reportedly killed four leading Al Qaeda figures, including possibly al-Zawahri's son-in-law. There was no mention of the attack on the segments that were broadcast.
In the full tape that was posted Monday, bin Laden engaged in renewed propaganda, mocking President Bush's aircraft carrier declaration in April 2003 that major conflict in Iraq had ended.
Speaking directly to the American people, the speaker said:
"You can rescue whatever you can from this hell. The solution is in your hands, if their (U.S. troops') situation matters to you at all."
The initial excerpts had been the first tape from the Al Qaeda leader in more than a year — the longest period without a message since the Sept. 11 2001 suicide hijackings in the United States.
The CIA last month authenticated the voice on the initial recording as that of bin Laden, an agency official told The Associated Press at the time. The Al Qaeda leader is believed to be hiding in the border region between Afghanistan and Pakistan.
The last audiotape purported to be from bin Laden was broadcast in December 2004 by Al-Jazeera. In that recording, he endorsed Abu-Musab al-Zarqawi as his deputy in Iraq and called for a boycott of Iraqi elections.
Previously, the longest period without a message from the Al Qaeda leader was from December 2001 to November 2002. He issued numerous tapes in 2003 and 2004, calling for Muslims to attack U.S. interests and threatening attacks against the United States.
Since December 2004, al-Zawahri, the Al Qaeda Number 2, has issued a number of video and audiotapes, including one claiming responsibility for the July London subway bombings, which he said came after Europe rejected the terms of bin Laden's truce offer.
Never argue with an idiot, people can't tell you apart.

Oggiono (Lecco, Italy): Baptistery of San Giovanni Battista
The Baptistery of San Giovanni is undoubtedly the most valuable historical and artistic monument of Oggiono and represents one of the most significant examples of Lombard Romanesque.
It was probably built in the eleventh century, replacing a previous building erected between the eighth and ninth centuries.
In the Baroque period, in the first half of the eighteenth century, it was transformed into a sacristy. Its structure was heavily altered, with among other things the closure of the original windows and entrance, the insertion above the entrance of a large baroque window completely out of context, the addition of a connecting wall with the adiacent church of Sant'Eufemia. The interior was also heavily altered, in particular with the plastering of the surfaces. To better adhere the plaster, the frescoes of the apse, in particular, were not only hidden, but even hammered, so as to damage them irreversibly.
The current appearance is due to the restoration work that took place between 1932 and 1940, commissioned by the parish priest, Don Gottifredi, at the invitation of the bishop of Milan Cardinal Schuster.
The building is octagonal in shape. On the east side there is a semicircular apse as wide as the whole side and slightly lower. The wall structure is in exposed sandstone blocks.
The corners are underlined by thin half-columns set on low pedestals and ending in small cubic capitals with rounded edges.
The upper edge of the external walls is decorated with hanging arches and, above them, a band of small stone blocks arranged in a sawtooth.
The side that houses the entrance is delimited by two pilasters and the half-columns are moved between them and the entrance. It also has an additional decoration consisting of two stone lozenges inserted flush with the wall.
The door is surmounted by a stone monolith (unfortunately broken up in the eighteenth century) which as a shape corresponds to the sum of the architrave and a hemispherical lunette. Above it an arch formed by stones decorated with segmented lines.
The wall structure is interrupted by a total of seven splayed rectangular single-light windows: three on the southern side, one on the northern side and three, smaller ones, in the apse.
The roof of the baptistery consists of a tuff dome covered with slabs of local stone.
The internal environment is circular, with walls marked by thin sandstone half-columns, similar to those on the outside as a type but not corresponding to them as the position. Four arrive up to the roof, two, with cubic stone capitals, support the front of the double arch that connects the main space with the apse. The latter is in proportion very large, well lit by three splayed single-lancet windows and is equipped along its entire base with a stone seat. The altar is recent.
At the center of the main space there is what remains of the baptismal font, which, as typical of ancient baptisteries, consisted of a real basin, here octagonal and built with stones and limestone tuff covered with pinkish cement to waterproof it. Originally it must have been higher. A modern baptismal font has ben added on one side.
Around the baptismal font runs a circular corridor with a cocciopesto floor (partly preserved and now covered with wooden boards). It is enclosed on three sides by the remains of the perimeter walls of the previous version of the baptistery.
Note, on the right and left of the entrance door, two openings with an architrave surmounted by an arch. They lead to two stairs located in the thickness of the perimeter wall: the one on the right is truncated at half height; the left one continues up to almost reach the roof. It can be assumed that they led to a matroneum, a structure of which there is nothing left.
Finally, the connecting door to the Church of Sant'Eufemia was added when it was rebuilt (around 1620).
Frescoes
The restoration works of the years 1997-1999 made it possible to recover at least a part of the frescoes originally present.
Of the frescoes in the apse, which in Romanesque times must have been entirely frescoed, unfortunately little has remained: the hand of a Christ Pantocrator is still recognizable, a part of the almond around him, a fragment of the figure symbolizing Matthew and fragments of a group of Saints, probably the Apostles.
The frescoes on the walls, in late Gothic and early Renaissance style, date back to the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Starting from the entrance and going clockwise you have:
Sant'Eufemia, to which the church next to the baptistery is dedicated. In the left hand she has the book of Catholic doctrine, in the right hand the palm of martyrdom. Under her feet the dragon of heresy.
A box with the saints Rocco and Sebastiano, invoked during the plagues. Both are depicted unusually young.
Immediately after the door connecting to the church, a St. John the Baptist with the crucified Lamb.
Immediately to the right of the apse there is an elegant Madonna in Throne with Child on a brocade background. Next to it, inside the same box, a St. Bernard, unfortunately seriously damaged by the subsequent insertion of a niche in the wall.
In a frame larger and more decorated than the others there is the figure of a young man dressed in an elegant manner and with a crowned and haloed head, holding a pomegranate in his right hand.
Santa Odilia, in black monastic dress and holding a small plate containing two eyes.
A San Sebastian accompanied by a dog.
Still a Madonna in Throne with Child, between Saints Sebastiano and Rocco (also here with a small dog).
It should be noted that in some frescoes some graffiti about historical episodes have been engraved (in particular the beginning of the construction of the current version church and the beginning of the works for the transformation of the baptistery into the sacristy).

This bonus one has come about following a query from a colleague, and relates to making use of node.js with the interface.
Note the use of the dir() method on console to produce the formatted output.
pem – this is the RACF Certficate Authority certificate. It needs to be available on the node server so that node knows that it can trust certificates signed with it. DB2 for z/OS will send it the server one as part of establishing the HTTPS secure conversation (c.f. blog #4 on security).
p12 – this is the client certificate, which node will use to authenticate it's connection to REST and DB2 for z/OS. This is associated with user ADCDA (see below).
The output is the default DER encoded X.509 certificate that is formatted in base64. This is then downloaded in ASCII format as zpdtca.pem.
Both commands prompt for the PKCS#12 password (SAUSAGE – cf RACDCERT EXPORT, above).
The output from running this (node driveTLSGetDepartments) is the same as the first example.
The highlighted thread is running with authid ADCDA (as configured in our client certificate) and is executing the GetEmployeesByDepartment service. The rest of the output is for the DB2 admin scheduler RRS threads and me in TSO issuing the -DIS THREAD(*).
Even with the added complexity of client certificate authentication, node.js provides an easy to read and simple solution to accessing microservices built on the DB2 for z/OS REST API.
I am new to microservices and I have been searching for a Db2 example to learn from and your blog post is exactly the example I was looking for. I still have much to learn and understand, but standing on the shoulders of Giants will save me many hours of work and guide my study. Bravo!

Q: SFTP fails on listing directories with large number of files I try to connect to an sftp server (vsftpd) on Centos server through port 22. there is no problem in connection and initial directory listing; there is also no problem if I click on a directory with less than 10 files within.
but for directories with large number of files, probably more than 15 files!!, it shows "Connection Timeout Error, failed to retrieve directory listing" on Filezilla or similar message on other ftp clients.
I tested passive and active modes with no result
Setting vsftpd for passive mode no result
.....
I should mention it happens on FileZilla, PSFTP of putty, dreamweaver ftp...
but SMART FTP sometimes list the directories with no or less problems.
I use ADSL and a PPPoE connection to an ISP; also as I am in Iran there might be some restriction over some prots or protocols such as SSL in ISPs or ...(usually I cant open https links unless use a proxy software)
I just read a topic
Directory Listing (ls) error ONLY in port 22 (SFTP)
which address my problem as MTU issues
please guide me how can i correct this problem
thanks

A: I searched much for this problem and did many setting and it took my time for 2 days
I hadn't found any thing about this problem in the internet except the mentioned address
and yes the problem in my case was MTU
I changed the MTU size of the server from 1500 to 1460 (1492 didn't work!)
the MTU of my PPPoE connection is 1492
by this setting it worked.
For Centos server I used
ifconfig eth1 mtu 1460

note for permanent change you need to modify network config file
this link tells more:
http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/how-can-i-setup-the-mtu-for-my-network-interface/
Also please note you should find an optimal value just before your packets get fragmented
for me it was 1460
this page guides you for that
http://www.howtonetworking.com/VPN/mtu4.htm

A: Looks like MTU mismatch more than anything. Small packets get through, but once you request a large chunk of information, the packet gets lost. For pppoe per RFC2516 you should set MTU to 1492 bytes. On changing MTU, see this question.
SFTP does not use SSL internally. But SSL is blocked, I would guess SFTP would be blocked as well... if there is any coherence in your government's policy, that is.

EcoTopics
To achieve sustainability and conservation on campus or in the community creating and implementing policy is often at least a piece of the puzzle.
Campus and community policy is a broad topic and can include involvement with campus, local, state and federal policy; the work of nonprofits; environmental services on campuses and in other institutions; and grassroots community organizations. Regardless of the level or approach, the objective is to alter public policy and social institutions that affect the way we interact with the environment and manage natural resources. In doing so, policy can create new guidelines for land use, reduction of environmental harm, conservation of natural resources, and protect future risks to the natural environment.
There are many ways that you can get involved in campus and community policy, here are a few ideas:
Work with your student government to create and implement policy on campus.
Create a petition initiative in your community.
Attend a town hall meeting to learn more about issues in your community and how you can get involved.
Interested in pursuing a policy-related career? Check out the policy and governance careers outlook in the EcoLeaders Career Center to learn more about careers in the field, hear from professionals and map out your career plan.

Zach arrived bright and early as we were told by Murphy's dispatcher. We have used Murphy's before but most people we spoke to could not recommend them. Well we were very pleased with the work Zach did on connecting our new sink and checking our cooling system. Any time we need our cooling to heating system worked on we will request Zach. A Big Thanks You to Zach.

Teen who allegedly 'bumped' jogger in fatal hit-and-run reportedly laughed about it afterward
Teen who allegedly 'bumped' jogger in fatal hit-and-run reportedly laughed about it afterward
September 18, 2021 | A Hill | Print Article

A jogger was killed by a 15-year-old motorist in Washington state who purposefully "bumped" into the man before driving off and laughing about the incident later with a friend.
The minor reportedly told a passenger in her godmother's car that she took without permission, "I'm going to scare him, I'm going to bump him" as she got closer to Greg Moore who was out for a jog in Maple Valley in July, according to a report by the Kent Reporter.
The "bump" cost him his life.
Prosecutors in King County filed charges of second-degree murder and hit and run against the teenager who was driving the grey 2004 Camry on July 18 just after 6 a.m.
A friend of the suspect was driving behind her alone in a different car she had taken from her mother and estimated that her friend hit the runner while careening down the road at 50 mph, in a stretch of road with a 35 mph speed limit.
The friend reported she heard a bang and "saw something fly into the air."
The man's body was discovered in a ditch near the Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church several hours later about two and a half miles from his home, according to KIRO7.
"It's a 'thrill-kill' is what it's called," the deceased jogger's widow Michelle Moore said who set up a website whokilledgreg.com to help identify the killer.
The suspect fled the scene but eventually stopped to survey the damage to the car.
"They were freaking out," the friend said.
"A family member (of the suspect) heard the individual laugh about the way Greg's body flew up in the air when she hit him," Michelle Moore said.

Once the girl returned to the home she shared with her godmother, she apparently tried to cover up the damage to the car by telling her godmother that someone had hit it with a bat, and did not admit at the time to driving the car.
The charging documents reportedly indicate that the suspect admitted to her father that she had hit someone with the car.
Eventually, the godmother saw footage of the Camry that the detectives sought on television which prompted her to turn the keys to her car to investigators who were able to match the headlight found at the scene to the parts missing on the Camry.
A GoFundMe page was organized on Moore's behalf which, to date, has raised over $42,000. A note on the fundraising page indicates that some of the initial funds raised were used to hire a private investigator and the remainder will be used for funeral expenses and bills.

The girl eventually turned herself in to the police last week and will be charged as a minor due to her age and lack of prior criminal history although Moore continues to advocate for her being tried as an adult due to the intentional and egregious nature of the crime.
"As heartbreaking as this case is, it's also highly unlikely a juvenile court judge would allow this individual — a 15-year-old with no criminal history — to have her case handled in adult court," King County Prosecuting Attorney's Office spokesman Casey McNerthney told The Seattle Times. "Even when juveniles are convicted as adults, Superior Court judges at sentencing can – and do in many cases – still follow the juvenile sentencing guidelines set by state lawmakers."
"I would argue that the brutality of her crime and blatant disregard for human life warrants her being tried as an adult," Michelle Moore said.

This is where I am today after starting back in early July.
Looks like a nicely designed kit with good wooden parts. Love instructions with each step pictured so you know the kit was actually tested and built using the items supplied.
I love this forum for the diversity in kits. Another manufacturer to keep an eye on.
Wow ! Thats turning out incredibly nice.
Great work so far and welcome to our friendly forum.
Very good looking kit and some very clean workmanship.
Thank so much for the very nice comments!!! The hull is now finished as well as the ships boat. Next up are the cannon.
Welcome to our forum :text-welcomewave: you have a very very nice looking ship. Your workmanship is top notch. I will continue to watch your build with pleasure. Thank you for sharing.
Incredible and very clean - I love the wood tone colors.
The overall impression is realy good of this model. Good built.
One question: are belaying pins made out of metal?
Very nice work I like the deck very much which look slightly weathered, did you do this yourselve or was it like this in the kit.
I am currently also building a boat from master korabel for my model of the Friesland and I liked the detailing of these kits.
