Created in 2010 to expand access to study abroad, the Fund for Education Abroad scholarship seeks to diversify the pool of students who study abroad. To more closely reflect the U.S. demographics, this scholarship attempts to award students who are underrepresented in study abroad and/or are planning to participate in programs in non-traditional locations.
Online application instructions are available on the Fund for Education Abroad (FEA) web site.

Foothills Community Church – Pincher Creek, AB
Foothills Community Church fonds
42 cm of textual records
Foothills Community Church located in Pincher Creek, Alberta, traces its beginnings to October 18, 1947, when a group of 8 families, through the help of the Coaldale Mennonite Brethren Church leadership organized as a church. There were 19 charter members. (Some of these Mennonite families had been farming at Pincher Creek since 1935.)
After organizing as a church, they held weekly worship services and operated a Sunday School for the children. They maintained close ties to the Coaldale M.B. Church for a number of years. On their own, however, they constructed their first meeting place which was dedicated on Oct. 23, 1949. During the late 1940s, a several refugee families arrived, having been sponsored by families of the Pincher Creek church. Not all of these "homeless" remained at Pincher Creek due to lack of employment, but by 1950, the church membership had increased to 28 members. Throughout the 1950s, this church, known as the Pincher Creek M.B. Church, remained the smallest M.B. congregation in Alberta.

The spiritual leader of the early group was David Durksen with Alfred Bensler serving as the assistant. In 1968, the Alberta M.B. Conference Missions Committee placed George and Elma Reimer in Pincher Creek to assist the small congregation. The meeting place was moved into the town of Pincher Creek from its rural location and re-dedicated on Nov. 10, 1968.
In 1972, the original name of this church, Pincher Creek Mennonite Brethren Church, was changed to Foothills Gospel Chapel. The name changed again in 1986 to Foothills Community Church. By this time the church was no longer under the program of the Alberta M.B. Conference committee for Church extension, the predecessor of the Home missions committee. In 1999, the local Alliance Church joined with Foothills, the Alliance property was purchased, and a new building erected. It was completed in 2004, with first services held in October 2004.
The congregation closed on January 31, 2014. The building and church assets were given to the Alberta Mennonite Brethren Conference for a possible church plant in the future.
The leaders in the congregation were David F. Durksen (1947–1969), George Reimer (1969–1975), Victor J. Nickel (1977–1981), Henry Nikkel (1981–1984), Gary Andres (1984–1992), Ed Schmidt (1992–1995), Peter Boschman, interim (1995–1996), Blake Wagner (1996–2000), Leo Siemens and George Reimer, interim (2000), Ernie Bergen (2001–2012), and Jim Nightingale (2012–2014).
This fonds consists of the following files: Congregational meeting minutes, church council meeting minutes, membership registers, constitutions, church bulletins, youth executive records and financial records. The earlier materials (i.e., 1947–1980) are originals except for the church registers. The files from 1985–1994 are photocopies. The originals were returned to the church. When the church closed in 2014, a final file deposition was made. This fonds documents well the work of the Alberta Mennonite Brethren Conference committee for Church extension in southern Alberta.
These materials were acquired by Dr. Abe Dueck in 1995 during his trip to visit Alberta MB Churches. In 2014, conference minister Paul Loewen deposited several more years of church bulletins.
Volume 339, nos. 1–13; Volume 340, no. 6; Volume 1226, nos. 1–15; and Volume 1448, nos. 64–75.

Initially established as a family-run flight training organisation in 1965, the passion and desire for continual improvement inherent in the business paved the way for what would become a formidable player within the South African aviation sector. Over the years the group grew organically, by responding to needs that were linked to its current operations, and today, more than fifty years later, its divisions include Avex Air Transport, Avex Information Products, Avex Pilot Shop, Avex Tool Shop and Avex Corrosion & Tools.

Subtle change of tone in this morning's OCR announcement suggests the Reserve Bank may now be more willing to cut the OCR if need be, commentators say.
As expected by economists across the board, the Reserve Bank has left the OCR unchanged at 1.75% and reaffirmed its cautious, neutral stance.
But there were some changes to the wording in the accompanying announcement and some feel this could indicate a subtle shift.
ANZ senior economist Liz Kendall says the statement was more dovish at the margin, with the OCR on hold "for now", rather than "for some time to come", and a subtle change of wording in its forward guidance phrase.
With inflation only likely to rise gradually, ANZ thinks the Reserve Bank will maintain a cautious monetary policy strategy until they see inflation rise in a consistent and sustained way, she says.
"We are picking that the OCR will eventually rise, with a hike for November 2019, but a lot can happen between now and then.
"Risks to domestic inflation are skewed to the downside and if conditions deteriorated significantly, a cut could eventuate quite rapidly. Further deterioration in any forward-looking indicators would be a worry for the Reserve Bank."
ASB chief economist Nick Tuffley agrees the Reserve Bank have given more wriggle room around how long the OCR would remain at 1.75%.
The subtle wording shift in the statement may be a nod to some of the risks on the horizon – such as global trade tensions and recent soft GDP growth - and a greater degree of spare capacity, he says.
"All up, the message is comfortably on hold, but the risks have been shifting to a later start to the tightening cycle – we now expect the tightening cycle to start in November 2019 (previously August).
"We also see growing risk that the next move may be a cut, rather than a hike.
For Westpac chief economist Dominick Stephens, the phraseology of the document was quite different to the May MPS but he does not view that as significant.
But some of the details of the OCR Review were on the dovish side, and that was surprising to them, he says.
NZIER senior economist Christina Leung says there was nothing in today's announcement that would prompt them to change their expectations around the OCR, which is that it won't move until mid-2019.
While there are economic uncertainties in the mix, particularly on the global front, they are more downside risks that anything likely to alter the central scheme of things, she adds.

How to add an existing module to my project?

yes, for some reason they changed that . Previous implementation was much better IMO, this new implementation makes me feel like I am using Eclipse..

To build a house is a complex project that will require many subcontractors, suppliers and workers. The general construction of a building or its supervision needs adequate knowledge and skill. Another thing that is highly essential is technique known as tried- and- true. It is well known that home designing, planning and strategies and building of a home take much time and could be highly strenuous to you and your entire family in case you want to shoulder every responsibility on its general construction.
To make new home plans is quite a great work by itself. To supervise the general construction and relate with many people that are involved in the home constructions and building, is not an easy task.
A good plan for every step in building your home is the master key for the project to be successful. Make a good blueprint at the beginning of your building construction to enable you to oversee the project from your TV directly. You will be able to know the exact cost of the construction that will complete the building project.
In order to ease yourself from stress, you will need to sublet the project to an architect or builder as your contractor. In case you want to act as Owner Builder, that is you carry out the builder function by yourself, then you need to be extra ordinary careful so that the work load will not be too much for you.
There are some important things you need to know as an owner builder, which can equalize you to homebuilder. Such as what you can do to stop the technique of assembly line construction of your builder, this is in order not to be in the same level as the value and the workmanship that you will take.
Another thing you need to know is how to know the truth and how reliable your homebuilder is concerning the superiority value claim and the satisfaction of the customer.
Then, you need to have the knowledge of the way to stop the development of mold, which is very rampant in new houses. This is the strategy that is used by some home sellers in order to up-sell and make you waste thousands of dollars for nothing. You should know the effectiveness of your building attorneys in this general construction.
As your personal contractor, with all the above techniques, you should be able to save up to 40% of the home building costs which you ought to have given to outside contractors.

Steve gets a ring with 10 (non regenerative) once per day. It is a ring of the smartest guy in the room, when he activated it, he gains 1 more intelligence point than anyone else in the room.
Eleanor, reading the book, says that, to bring Soloni back, they need a symbol of Soloni that they can stand around and be at the 5 points of the star. The map room in the temple can do this, as the city of Nareev is one giant symbol of Soloni. They also need a piece of Soloni. Eleanor has a lock of his hair around her neck. They also need to all "hit a certain resonance" while they stand there. They get to the map room, and they see the map of the city. It is indeed a large circle with a 5-pointed star in it. There's a big temple in the middle, and along the edges, on the points of the star, there are these smaller temples. Each one has a little light coming from them, and they are all the colors that Eleanor mentioned.
He is surprised to see Eleanor, and tells them that he has been building this entire plane of existence to someday bring Nareev back. He says that he feels like he should have been able to bring Nareev back a while ago, but he hasn't been feeling the power he usually does from his 5 aspects at the temples, and he thinks someone fucked up his temples. The [[Ätlän-tã Fælcons]] volunteer to unblock the temples. He also says that everyone in Nareev must be worshiping him and gather and believe and all that, luckily, today is the Festival of Soloni. He doesn't know what to do at the temples, it will just be a troubleshooting thing. There also isn't enough time to go to all the temples, so they will have to split up. He brings them back to the hole they came in from and gives them 5 horses, saying they could probably get them to the temples in 15 minutes. He also grants Toby one of each of his level spell slots backs. He also heals all of their HP. He says that he feels a lot of people coming to worship him so he has to go. Steve holds up Jerry, sheepishly, and Soloni brings him back to life.
They need to go to the different temples and they will need to split up, so they think about who is gonna go where. Eleanor tells them a little bit more about the aspects. The Hunter is there because Nareevians can't farm, so they hunt for food and people who hunt and provide food for the others prays to the Hunter. The Bard is for those who value entertainment, people like architects and artists and musicians would follow the Bard. The Wayfarer is for those who love to travel since they love airships, so adventurers and explorers worship him. The Headsman is about death, but is also about justice and fairness. The Child is short, and about life and innocence, playfulness, fun, stuff like that. After a little peer pressure, Toby decides to go to the Child Aspect''(Probably a little racist/species-ist, but whatever). Aludra goes to the Wayfarer, since she ran away from home to adventure. Steve goes to the Hunter, as he is a gourmand. Tug likes bones, and Eleanor will go wherever so they both go together to the Bard. Jaela obviously goes to the Headsman. They all get on the horses which are magical and glowing, but Jaela summons [[Princess Ivy Bluemoon]]. And they away.

Toby wants to look at the scrolls, but there's no time! Eleanor is ecstatic to pick up Soloni's helmet. She explains that the five pointed star on it represents the 5 different aspects of Soloni: The Hunter is the red one, The Bard is the yellow, The Wayfarer is the blue, The Headsman is the Black, and The Child is the white. And in the middle, the chunk of asteroid shaped like a crescent moon, that represents Soloni himself. The scrolls Toby picked up are for Charm Person, Animate Objects, and Geas. Aludra grabs a +2 luck hammer from the room, once per day she can re-roll on a melee attack roll. Toby gets 2 Immovable Rods. Jaela gets a +2 Halberd of aggression, bestows advantage on attack rolls, but disadvantage on her defenses (but she grants disadvantage for her cloak, so it evens out). Tug grabs a bone. Steve gets a ring with 10 (non regenerative) once per day. It is a ring of the smartest guy in the room, when he activated it, he gains 1 more intelligence point than anyone else in the room.
They all decide to stand at the temples together. Toby wants to be the Hunter, not the Child. Jaela goes to the Headsman. Aludra goes to the Child. Steve wants to go to the Wayfarer. Tug goes to the center, because if Soloni is brought back in Tug's body and has Tug's voice, it would be very funny. Eleanor goes to the Bard. They all sing and hit a certain resonance. The lights start to flicker, and then get stronger and stronger. The light underneath Tug shoots up, and he slowly fades away and he is gone. There is a hole where he is standing. Toby sends Arlington to look down the hole and it seems to be another place down there, it's large and kind of empty. They all hop down and it looks like a lot more of the Nareevian cloud like substance. They see a large figure striding toward them. Eleanor starts screaming in joy, like a Beetle's fan. The figure is 10 ft tall, has golden hair, skin is kind of gold, too, and he looks like a Greek statue. Loincloth, sandals, and ripped like you wouldn't believe. He speaks with Tug's voice. He is Soloni! He coughs really loudly and suddenly Tug comes flying out of his mouth, alive. Soloni begins speaking as a surfer bro.
He is surprised to see Eleanor, and tells them that he has been building this entire plane of existence to someday bring Nareev back. He says that he feels like he should have been able to bring Nareev back a while ago, but he hasn't been feeling the power he usually does from his 5 aspects at the temples, and he thinks someone fucked up his temples.

ANGARA LAUDS P-NOY PLANS ON AGRI, EDUCATION, HEALTH
Senator Edgardo J. Angara today welcomed President Noynoy Aquino's plans to implement reforms to improve the country's education, health care and agriculture sectors, saying it will compliment his own legislative agenda in the Senate.
"I think P-Noy has covered the most important points in his first SONA. It's a fresh start for government. The whole nation looks forward to better governance and speedy action to remedy the country's ailing education, health care and agriculture," Angara told media after Aquino delivered his state of the nation address yesterday.
Angara pointed out that the PhilHealth, which he authored into law, must be expanded to cover especially children of poor families and to improve the statistics of its coverage. He had earlier called for the passage of the Children's Health Insurance Program to provide health care and insurance for children of families in the below-poverty line.
"With regard to our PhilHealth system, apart from confusing statistics we have got to set the statistics right first because that's is the most important social service and its about time we make health care universal," said Angara, Chair of the Congressional Commission on Science and Technology and Engineering (COMSTE).
Echoing Aquino's calls to control the heavy government borrowing, Angara said that "ten years ago I already warned that we must watch the importation and borrowing of the NFA because it might just become the next NAPOCOR. The ADB made a study and it need not close; we should maintain our rice support function.
Among legislations he proposed is to extend the Agriculture and Fisheries Modernization Act (AFMA), which he authored, to give the agro-marine sector a share in the development and growth of the country's resources. He also proposed to maximize the country's underutilized agricultural lands to generate employment and technologies to improve the quality of our products for the domestic and international market.
He also has introduced various systems in the agro-marine industry starting with off-season vegetable farming to sustain crop breeding and production year-round, and mariculture processing to improve the quality of marine resources.
Finally, Angara lauded Aquino's calls to beef up the country's education system, saying that "because of the congestion we have to move our pupils to private schools, as that's one way of solving classroom congestion lack of teachers and facilities."
This, Angara asserted, can be addressed by maximizing his legislation of the GASTPE (Government Assistance to Students and Teachers in Private Education). Angara has also authored, among others, the Free High School Act, the Pre-School Development Act, School Building Act of 2009 and the act establishing a Computer Education Board.

US: Winter keeps its grip on February light vehicle sales
Winter maintained its grip on the US in February and, as happened in January, car buyers stayed home.
Manufacturers reported February sales totaling 1,192,467 light vehicles, 357 fewer than last year. That translates into a 0.03% loss.
The seasonally adjusted annualised sales rate (SAAR) matched the 15.34m recorded last February. It was a step up from January 2014's 15.24m but it was in line with analysts' estimates.
Chrysler Group was the only Detroit automaker to beat its year-ago numbers. Sales rose 11.4% driven by the new Jeep Cherokee, the Grand Cherokee and the Ram pickup. Dodge was the only Chrysler division to miss its mark: a 22% drop in car sales, led by a 36.7% plunge in sales of the Dart, was the culprit.
Ford took the biggest hit of the Detroit Three as a 7.2% drop in Ford brand vehicles wiped out a very respectable 36.4% jump in Lincoln sales. The MKZ sedan was the hero, but a lot of the increase can be attributed to last year's supply constraints. While cars were Lincoln's strength, they were Ford's Achilles' heel: most models posted double-digit drops.
General Motors' sales were slightly off their 2013 totals as every brand but Buick came up short by small margins. Big improvements in deliveries of the Encore and Regal kept Buick in the black. GM is still having trouble moving their new pickups: year to date (YTD) sales of the Chevy Silverado are now down 15.0% and GMC's Sierra is 6% behind the first two months of 2013.
Both Toyota and Honda missed their numbers: Honda sales fell 7.0% and Toyota's dropped 4.3%. Both are now in the red for the year. They were joined by Mazda and Mistubishi. Of the group, only Mitsubishi is still ahead of the game in YTD numbers.
Nissan brand set a new February record with sales up 16.7%, the largest gain among the major players and second only to Subaru's record-breaking 24.0% among all automakers. The Altima became the best-selling passenger car for the month. Nissan bumped Honda down to sixth in the manufacturer standings for the month and now holds a nice lead in YTD sales.
Hyundai took a 6.3% hit that company officials blamed on the weather while Kia sales were off by 0.7%. So far this year, the Koreans are 1.5% in the hole.
Audi set another sales record by the skin of its teeth, finishing the month exactly four sales ahead of February 2013. Mercedes-Benz continued its reign at the top of the premium segment with another monthly sales record and Porsche joined the party with its best-ever February sales.
BMW brand sales were up 3.3% but that gain was wiped out as Mini sales cratered to the tune of 42.8%. Deliveries of the core Cooper Hardtop fell 77.6% as the brand transitions to a refreshed model coming to market in the second quarter of this year.
Pickup truck deliveries, which have been seen as a bellweather of an improving economy, were up 1.8% and accounted for 12.2% of total light vehicle sales. That's up slightly from last February's 11.9% share.
Premium brands also picked up market share, growing from 10.3% of sales to 10.8%. Only Cadillac and Volvo fell short in February. Jaguar was second only to Lincoln in sales growth with a 35.2% gain.
Since March has come in like a lion, we can hope it goes out like a lamb with balmy spring weather: perfect for a visit to a car dealer's lot.

"Always makes me laugh when Jessie has that cheeky grin that says "I know you're there Ru and I'm going anyway"." Thanks to @mattvaughanphotography for the photo. If you're ever looking for a freelance surf photographer, he's a great guy to get in touch with.
Asher and Harry then spoke about their surf session when Harry tested the strength of the FCSII fin boxes and discovered that they where much stronger than the his board.
First up in the News this episode was the Big Wave World Tour event at Pe'ahi (Jaws) in Maui that took place last week.
The guys also spoke about the GoPro footage from some of the competitors, and how huge the waves looked even thorough a fisheye lens.
We then went on to speak about the Surfer Poll Awards that took place on the same day.
We mentioned Dane Reynolds' movie Sampler winning "Best Short" as well as Fisherman's Son winning best Documentary, and Harry Recommended checking out the "Tour Notes" web series that won an award as well.
Asher then brought up Even Geiselman's accident at Pipeline, and his rescue by Andre Botha.
Jessie gave us a rundown on the end of the Women's World Tour at the Target Maui Pro.
And we then went on to talk about the Fantasy Surfer Club, which Boyce & Coryn have taken 1st and 2nd place in.
The guys put together a gift guide to help you with you Christmas Shopping, they divided the list into Stocking Stuffers, Books and Luxuary Items.
Stocking Stuffers: Jessie chose the Deluxe Fin Wallet from FCS, Harry suggested a Pickle Wax Remover and Asher picked a copy of Psychic Migrations or View From A Blue Moon.
Books: Harry picked Waterman by David Davis, Jessie picked the Surfing Animals Alphabet Book by Jonas Claesson, and Asher chose The History of Surfing by Matt Warshaw. Harry also mentioned Way of the Bird by Andy Davis and Andrew Kidman.
Luxury Items: Asher went all out and suggested a surfboard, and in particular one from Black Rose Manufacturing. Jessie picked a subscription to the Finatic Test Program, and Harry recommended a Trace GPS tracker.
Harry and Ru interviewed David Lokshin, the CEO of Trace. They spoke about the Kickstarter campaign that launched Trace in 2013, how Trace works, their recent deal with Channel Islands Surfboards, and the future of surfing. We also spoke a little about how GPS works, and why a GPS only device like the Rip Curl Search GPS Watch is less accurate.
We started by talking about View from a Blue Moon (and we promise we won't mention it again for a while!), and mentioned Art of Flight which was also made by the same production team.
Harry spoke about the new GoPro Spherical surf clip, which we can't post on this page, but you can watch it here.
Asher then mentioned Sterling Spencer's new movie, "Gold" which we also can't embed here, but again, you can watch it here. In talking about this movie we also mentioned Surf Madness that he made a few years ago.

How Joe Biden can root out racism in criminal justice
Opinion by Karl A. Racine and Miriam Aroni Krinsky
Published 8:49 PM EST, Fri December 25, 2020
Biden: Darkest days in Covid-19 battle are ahead of us
Editor's Note: Karl A. Racine is the attorney general for the District of Columbia. Miriam Aroni Krinsky is a former federal prosecutor and the executive director of Fair and Just Prosecution, a national network of elected prosecutors working towards common-sense, compassionate criminal justice reforms. The views expressed in this commentary are their own. View more opinion articles on CNN.
The night of his victory, President-elect Joe Biden declared that the American people had given him a mandate to "marshal the forces of decency…fairness… science and… hope in the great battles of our time" – among them, the battle for racial justice.
As immigrants, criminal justice leaders and Americans who believe in our nation's promise of liberty and justice for all, we applaud the incoming President's commitment to this important work. Moreover, we believe he should make full use of his authority as President – beginning on day one – to root out racist and failed policies prevalent in our justice system.
For decades, elected leaders sought to portray themselves as "tough on crime" through misguided choices – including the war on drugs, mandatory minimum penalties and the militarization of the police force – that eroded trust with communities, while cementing racial oppression and mass incarceration.
This election revealed that many people now see these policies as grave errors. In red and blue states alike, voters backed initiatives propelling criminal justice and policing reform, while delivering Joe Biden a historic victory. The calls for systemic change came from every corner of the country. Now it's up to the President-elect to see it through.

Trump is destroying his own party on the way out the door
He should start with the adage that personnel is policy. Currently, 85% of US attorneys are White men, up from 58% under former President Barack Obama. Biden should strive to make these critical leaders of the Justice Department better reflect the country's diversity. More importantly, he must tap individuals who not only understand that racial inequities are built into the system, but whose careers demonstrate deep commitment to righting these wrongs – particularly when it comes to his attorney general.
That individual must embrace transparency to restore the Justice Department's integrity following four years of erosion. Collecting, tracking and releasing data on race in the criminal justice system – as several local prosecutors across the country are doing – gives the public both a window into disparities and the ability to hold the administration accountable in addressing them.
Biden should also direct the attorney general and US attorneys to adopt evidence-based policies that will alleviate the disproportionate harms done to people of color. These concerns are particularly prevalent in matters of drug policy, juvenile justice, second chances and police accountability.

Here's what's worrying about the coronavirus variant
On drug policy, the Biden-Harris administration should refrain from enforcing the federal prohibition on marijuana, which has left millions of Black and brown Americans needlessly ensnared in the criminal legal system. They should further lead the effort to end the criminalization of substance use disorder and embrace harm reduction. To do so, they should retract threats to prosecute clients, staff and volunteers at overdose prevention sites – locations (successfully operated in other parts of the world) where people can use drugs under the supervision of individuals trained to immediately reverse overdoses and where connections can be made to medical care, social services and harm reduction supports – and make clear that these lifesaving programs do not violate federal drug laws.
On juvenile justice, the Biden administration should follow in the footsteps of reform-minded prosecutors and prohibit federal prosecutors from seeking life without the possibility of parole or de facto life sentences for young people. These changes would reflect the consensus among cognitive scientists that the brain isn't fully developed until the age of 25, and that most young people respond to rehabilitative treatment and "age out" of criminal behavior.
On second chances, it's time to embrace the consistent research showing that lengthy sentences do not deter crime. The President-elect should direct the attorney general and Bureau of Prisons to implement policies embraced by numerous elected local prosecutors promoting sentencing reductions and compassionate release. And he would be wise to establish an independent clemency commission – a freestanding agency with credible leadership and tasked with immediately and proactively investigating and addressing clemency requests.

Biden should also immediately direct the Justice Department to reassess onerous conditions of federal probation and supervised release, which create an unnecessary cycle of incarceration for countless men and women – many imprisoned for technical non-violent infractions – and waste hundreds of millions of dollars. The department could also provide financial incentives for state and local governments to do the same.
Additionally, Biden should look to local prosecutors working to exonerate wrongfully convicted individuals and order US attorney's offices to establish conviction integrity units, while offering incentive funds to local prosecutors prioritizing this endeavor. Finally, he can codify equity and compassion by reversing the Trump administration's resumption of federal executions, commuting all federal capital sentences, dismantling the federal death chamber and working to eliminate the death penalty federally and nationwide.
While policing may largely be a matter of municipal policy, the President-elect can have the Justice Department use several tools to propel change. The attorney general can tie federal funding and grants for local police departments to the adoption of stronger use-of-force standards, alternative responder models, body-worn camera programs, peer intervention training, databases tracking police misconduct and other best practices. Further, the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division should resume the important work of investigating police departments and seek consent decrees – court supervised agreements – addressing patterns of abusive, racist policing.

These proposals are all well within the broad powers of the executive branch, and Biden could enact many on Inauguration Day. This is not to suggest, however, that his criminal justice agenda should simply ignore the legislature. We hope that members of Congress will heed the public's clear desire for such reforms and work to make headway. Indeed, if the parties can find common ground around more expansive, longer-lasting change, we urge them to seize it.
But with lives on the line and calls for change in 2021 mounting, there is no time to waste. Biden should not hesitate to strike quickly and often in the ongoing battle for racial justice.

Support the Energy Sovereignty Act, H.R. 1584
On behalf of our activist community, I urge you to contact your representative and ask him or her to support the Energy Sovereignty Act, H.R. 1584. Introduced by Rep. Scott Perry (R-Pa.) the Energy Sovereignty Act would ensure that unelected bureaucrats at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) cannot bypass the will of your elected representatives in Congress.
Federalism is one of the bedrock principles on which the United States was founded. The framers of the Constitution knew that the needs and interests of citizens of one state would be different from those of another. That is why the Tenth Amendment was included in the Bill of Rights, so that citizens of the many states could rest assured that an all-powerful national government would not govern against their will.
Section 115 of the Clean Air Act currently allows the executive branch to mandate that every state reduce its emissions by an amount determined by the unelected bureaucrats at the EPA. This is a blatant example of executive overreach and undermines each state's ability to govern its emissions in ways that will benefit its people. The Energy Sovereignty Act would repeal this dangerous provision.
While fighting for a healthy environment is a worthy goal, there are ways of doing so without circumventing the electoral process and growing the size of government. The Energy Sovereignty Act is a common-sense measure that gives power back to the states, where it rightly belongs, and ensures that any environmental solutions are decided by elected representatives, not unelected bureaucrats.
For these reasons, I urge you to contact your representative and ask him or her to support the Energy Sovereignty Act, H.R. 1584.

The Ghanaian President, Nana Akufo-Addo has commended the Miss Ghana organization, the oldest pageant in the country.
According to the President, he was impressed with the organization's various social interventions which have been spearheaded by various winners of the pageant. He said the Miss Ghana pageant "is of real value to Ghana." The President was speaking at the Flagstaff House on Tuesday, March 7, 2017 when Exclusive Events Ghana, Organisers of the Miss Ghana pageant paid a courtesy call on him. The organization congratulated the President on his victory in the December 2016 elections and on Ghana's 60th independence anniversary.
The visit was to afford the organisers the opportunity to inform the President of the plans for this year's pageant (in line with the Country's 60th independence anniversary) and the future hosting of the Miss World pageant in Ghana.
Inna Mariam Patty, CEO of Exclusive Events, who led the delegation which included three former pageant winners, told the president that the Miss Ghana pageant, over the years, had succeeded in promoting Ghana onto the world stage.
The former queens present were Sheila Azuntaba Miss Ghana 1996, Afia Marfo Miss Ghana 1998, Selasie Kwawu Miss Ghana 2001. He also commended the past award winners for their commitment to the Miss Ghana projects.
The Chief Executive Officer of EEGL said winners of the pageant, also concentrated their efforts on the aged, educational, health and environmental sectors of the Ghanaian economy, stating that one of the flagship projects undertaken by the Miss Ghana organisation is the Don Bosco Street Child Project.
"We helped acquired a 10-acre land and built a hostel, where a lot of street children and those who cannot afford to pay their fees are given technical and vocational education. In the last 10 years, we have trained a lot of youth who can also contribute their quota to society," she said.
With regards to healthcare projects, Inna Patty mentioned that several previous Miss Ghana winners had contributed immensely to minimise infant and maternal mortality rates, especially in the three northern regions. On the environmental front, she revealed that pageant Organisers have partnered with the Forestry Commission to carry out various tree planting exercises across the country.
To this end, she indicated that "we are hopeful that the proposal of having national support to host the world event (Miss World pageant) will be given a favourable consideration. Countries lobby to host this prestigious event annually, as it generates millions of dollars in revenue and investment for the successful country. We are hopeful that in the nearest future Ghana will be ready to host such an event."
President Akufo-Addo, who thanked the delegation for the courtesy call, further described the Miss Ghana beauty pageant as "an event that promotes and sells the country." It is for this reason that the President added that the Miss Ghana pageant
"is something that should be of concern to all " since it promotes Ghana as a viable investment and tourism destination.
The 'Miss Ghana 60 Years On' beauty pageant is expected to be organised in August this year, as part of the yearlong celebration of the 60th independence anniversary celebration.
