Game Wardens Use Social Media, Tracking Devices, and DNA Evidence to Bust Poachers in California
A feature in the Sacramento Bee illustrates how wardens used advanced tactics to bust two rising social media stars back in 2019

Decades ago game wardens primarily used tips from sources, shoe leather, and binoculars to pinch poachers. Today's officers use the same methods, along with keeping eyes on television shows, social media accounts and website chatter for anything that seems amiss. A recent story by the Sacramento Bee shows how game wardens with the California Department of Game and Fish used advanced tactics, like tracking devices and airplane surveillance, along with social media to nab two poachers back in 2019.
After an extensive investigation that began in August 2019 due to posts on Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram, Joe Frater and Chris Stone were cited for multiple violations, including hunting with the aid of bait, trespassing, failing to report kills, and other poaching related violations. Frater is a corrections officer at a local prison and Stone is an investigator for the Amador County district attorney, according to the Sacramento Bee. Both seemed to be rising stars on social media in the hunting world for the big bucks they were taking.
Game warden David Moskat was suspicious that the two were using bait to lure bucks and possibly committing other violations. Moskat began scouring social media posts and found that in 2013 on a YouTube video, Stone was posing with a buck that he did not immediately tag as per California regulations. Some hunters take photos first before tagging, others immediately tag and then say cheese. Moskat was skeptical.
Baiting is prohibited in California. After obtaining search warrants, game wardens began surveilling the pair with what Frater's and Stone's attorneys say were extreme tactics: airplane surveillance, motion-triggered game cameras, tracking devices on vehicles, DNA from gut piles and truck beds, phone seizures, stakeouts, raids on their homes, and seizure of shoulder mounts, bowhunting gear, frozen meat, computers, trail camera memory cards, receipts from taxidermists and butchers, salt licks, mineral blocks, and bags of feed.
Frater and Stone faced up to a year in jail and up to $40,000 in fines due to special enhancements added for poaching trophy deer. They reached plea agreements for no jail time and fines far less than what could have been imposed for such poaching violations. Their attorneys claim the case was not strong enough and, therefore, the reason prosecutors did not pursue the special enhancement aspect.
"My client and I are both disappointed that significant and precious law enforcement resources were expended on what the California Attorney General's Office obviously deemed was an overblown investigation based upon the limited code violations which were ultimately charged," Frater's attorney, Candice Fields, told The Bee in an email.
"If violent crime investigations receive less funding than did this investigation, the public really should be left wondering about the prioritization of how their tax dollars are spent."

Alternately, a former federal wildlife officer, Michael Sutton, told the newspaper that "judges, courts never take wildlife cases as seriously as drug offenses or violent crimes — they just don't. There's a big need to educate both prosecutors and judges about the serious nature of these offenses." Sutton is the past president of the California Fish and Game Commission, which sets the state's laws for hunting and fishing.
In December 2019, Stone pleaded no contest to one count of hunting over bait, was fined $780 and given three years' probation. He is also prohibited from hunting during that time. Frater pleaded no contest to two counts of hunting deer over bait. He was fined $5,000, given one year of informal probation, and cannot hunt for a year.

The Importance Of Liberal Arts Education (2)
Our college students will receive a properly-rounded education based on interdisciplinary studies exploring ideas and information-building expertise in the areas of regulation, historical past, philosophy, religion, history of art, social sciences, pure sciences and arithmetic. Campion College is a Roman Catholic dedicated liberal arts faculty, situated within the western suburbs of Sydney. You will even be inspired to develop a degree of specialization in a Major discipline or in a gaggle of thematically-linked programs. Di Indonesia sendiri sebenarnya sudah terengar wacana untuk menggunakan sistem Liberal Art pada perguruan tinggi.
Grafton Anthony and Lisa Jardine From Humanism to the Humanities: The Institutionalizing of the Liberal Arts in Fifteenth- and Sixteenth-century Europe, Harvard University Press, 1987. The audience, which consisted mainly of students from upper-degree inventive writing nonfiction and seminar lessons, was shocked by the announcement that solely about 100 individuals within the US have seen the film to date. Campion gives a Bachelor of Arts in the Liberal Arts as its sole undergraduate degree.
In 1999, the European College of Liberal Arts (now Bard College Berlin) was founded in Berlin 33 and in 2009 it launched a four-12 months Bachelor of Arts program in Value Studies taught in English, 34 resulting in an interdisciplinary degree within the humanities. In our fast paced and altering society industries and jobs will come and go. The worth of a liberal arts schooling will last a lifetime. For instance, her freshman all have to sit in on labs" targeted on some difficulty, similar to schooling or well being care.
Mass Communications major Natalie Wagner is one in all 4 college students throughout the PA State System of Higher Education to obtain one of the first William D. Greenlee Scholarships. Setiap siswa yang mempelajari Liberal Art juga diajarkan tentang etos kerja, berpendapat dan mencetuskan gagasan pada setiap materi yang dipelajarinya. I bear in mind, in my closing year, searching for such a course to fill out a crowded schedule, and choosing one called History of Greek Philosophy.
Instead of choosing something that genuinely interested them, they went with a significant that was alleged to have immediate, tangible benefits. First, canny liberal arts students can do rather a lot to maximize their employment opportunities by way of selections about second majors, minors, research abroad alternatives, internships, and different methods. Symbiosis & FLAME University in Pune, Ahmedabad University , Ashoka University , Lingnan University and University of Liberal Arts- Bangladesh (ULAB) are also a couple of such liberal arts colleges in Asia. The liberal arts diploma is common for those with higher profession ambitions, as well.

Will Rising U.S.-Iran Tensions Spark Afghan Proxy War?
By: Belquis Ahmadi; Barmak Pazhwak; Michael V. Phelan
Rising tensions between the United States and Iran—illustrated and exacerbated by the January 3 assassination of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani—are rippling out beyond the Middle East. Now, American officials are voicing growing concern about Iranian activities in Afghanistan. In recent weeks, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that Iran is supporting militant groups in the country and seeking to undermine the peace process between the U.S. and the Taliban. A top U.S. general for the region, meanwhile, warned that Iranian actions in Afghanistan pose a risk to the approximately 14,000 American troops deployed there.

Video | CJ's Jeff Greer updates Chris Jones situation live from Atlanta.
A day after his first game back from a suspension, Chris Jones has been dismissed from the University of Louisville basketball team.
The school made the announcement on Sunday afternoon and said there would be no further comment on the matter. Jones did not return multiple messages seeking comment, though a source close to the point guard said Jones was "devastated" by the decision.
Spokespeople for both U of L police and the Louisville Metro Police said Sunday that there had been no reported incidents involving Jones in recent weeks.
"He's finished," coach Rick Pitino said when reached by The Courier-Journal on Sunday afternoon. "There won't be any comment."
U of L takes on Georgia Tech at 7 p.m. Monday night in Atlanta, and freshman Quentin Snider is expected to start in Jones's place.
The news comes five days after U of L announced an indefinite suspension of Jones just before the Cardinals' trip to Syracuse. He missed that game, which Syracuse won, but Pitino indicated that he wasn't sure if Jones would return after the one-game suspension or remain suspended.
"We missed him a lot but, you know, it's his selfishness that hurt the team," Pitino said Wednesday. "It's all cleared up – he could play the next game if he does what the assistant coaches tell him to do. If he doesn't, he sits again. And I don't care if he sits the whole season, to tell you the truth. I (couldn't) care less. Because if he doesn't do the right things and act like a Louisville man, he can move on and try to go to Belgium somewhere."
On Friday, Pitino said Jones "had to do things unrelated to us and he got it done." And on Saturday, Jones played 36 minutes in Louisville's 55-53 win over Miami and finished with 17 points, five rebounds, two steals and two assists, playing a pivotal role in U of L's comeback from a double-digit deficit.
The dismissal of Jones obviously puts a huge strain on Louisville for the remainder of this campaign. U of L (21-6, 9-5 in the ACC) has four games left this season before the ACC tournament and is in the hunt for fourth place in the league.
Jones was third on the team in scoring, averaging 13.7 points per game. The 5-foot-10 point guard was also first on the team in assists (3.6 per game) and led the team in steals (two per game).
On Saturday, the senior said the one-game suspension "was my fault" and that he had to earn back the respect of his teammates, the media and U of L's fans.
"I'm not worried about anything that anybody has to say about me," Jones said after the Miami game. "I came a long way, I'm telling you, from (throwing) garbage cans in gyms to wanting to fight every game to keeping it inside. I know how to manage it by just playing hard."
At times this season, Jones frustrated his teammates with his play, taking erratic shots and sometimes playing out of control on offense. He was benched twice this season for poor performances, including the second half of a 69-56 win over Pittsburgh earlier this month. He left the locker room immediately after that game and did not speak with the media.
In late December, Jones was disciplined by Pitino and played just nine minutes in a win over Long Beach State. Pitino said he sat Jones because of a flopping incident in the Kentucky loss.
But the situation seemed to improve in January and early February before the last few weeks of turmoil. Jones was playing his best basketball since arriving at U of L as a high-scoring junior-college signee back in 2013.
"Chris works hard at his game -- all the time. That's why I appreciate him. Is it fun to coach him? Not like Russ Smith -- there's not a lot of laughter coaching him. You appreciate how hard he works, so you give him some latitude when things don't go well and he comes out of the game. He came out of the game tonight, and actually didn't pout for the first time, which was awesome. He just sat down, I said 'You ready to go in?' and he said, 'Yes.' Now we took the next step."

A book titled "Biocentrism: How Life and Consciousness Are the Keys to Understanding the Nature of the Universe", published in the USA, has stirred up the Internet because of the notion that life does not end when the body dies and can last forever. The author of this publication, scientist Robert Lanza, has no doubts that this may be possible.Beyond time and spaceLanza is an expert in regenerative medicine and scientific director at Advanced Cell Technology Company. While he is known for his extensive research on stem cells, he was also famous for several successful experiments on cloning endangered animal species.
This means that a dead person, while traveling through the 'tunnel', ends up in a similar world he or she once inhabited, but this time alive. And so on, infinitely.
Multiple worldsThis hope-instilling but extremely controversial theory by Lanza has many unwitting supporters – not just 'mere mortals' who want to live forever, but also some well-known scientists. These are physicists and astrophysicists who tend to agree with the existence of parallel worlds and who suggest the possibility of multiple universes, known as the Multiverse theory.
Science fiction writer H.G. Wells was the first to come up with this concept, which was proposed in his story "The Door in the Wall" in 1895. 62 years after it was published, the idea was developed by Hugh Everett in his graduate thesis at the Princeton University. It basically states that at any given moment the universe divides into countless similar instances. And the next moment, these "newborn" universes split in a similar way. You may be present in some of these worlds – you may be reading this article in one universe or watching TV in another.
Soul quantaSo, there is abundance of places or other universes where our soul could migrate after death, according to the theory of neo-biocentrism. But does the soul exist?
Sir Roger Penrose, a well-known British physicist and expert in mathematics from Oxford, supports this theory and claims to have found traces of contact with other universes. Together, the scientists are developing a quantum theory to explain the phenomenon of consciousness. They believe that they have found carriers of consciousness, the elements that accumulate information during life and "drain" consciousness somewhere else after death. These elements are located inside protein-based microtubules (neuronal microtubules), which previously have been attributed a simple role of reinforcement and transport channeling inside a living cell. Based on their structure, microtubules are best suited to function as carriers of quantum properties inside the brain. That is mainly because they are able to retain quantum states for a long time, meaning they can function as elements of a quantum computer.
Written by Andrea Schulman| Even if you understand the Law of Attraction well, you will still find that it usually takes some time for your dreams to manifest. While you are waiting for your new reality to arrive it's a great idea to look for signs from the universe that your dreams are on their way.
A little reassurance can help you keep a positive outlook, and keeping a positive outlook is critical! Sometimes, the universe will give you little hints to let you know you are going in the right direction.
1) Experiencing goosebumps or chills (not related to illness) Have you ever noticed that when you're listening to a song that you connect with strongly you suddenly get goosebumps or chills? Strong positive emotions can bring about goosebumps or chills; they are a solid indication that you are connected to your higher self and projecting the right vibrational energy to manifest your dreams.
2) Flowing in and out of traffic without waiting at any long lights or getting stuck behind slow drivers This is a good indication that you are "going with the flow." Going with the flow is the quickest way to attract what you want. Work with the universe, and the universe will start working with you.
3) Seeing repeating number patterns Are you familiar with seeing numbers repeat themselves in your daily life? Some common numbers that people see are 000, 1111, 333, and 444. Symbolically, each of these number patterns represent high vibrational energy. Look for them on license plates, phone numbers and digital clocks.
4) Your favorite songs are playing on the radio You are projecting high vibrational emotions, so the universe is bringing you songs that reflect your high emotional state. Turn up the music and really appreciate it!
Clouds in shapes like hearts, smiley faces and angels are symbolic indicators that you are on the right track. Maybe you will be out in nature and will see the Flower of Life appear in the criss-crossing of branches, or you will notice that something in real life is very similar to something that happened in a dream. These are signs you are on the right track. The Matrix is responding to you.
Your intuition is heightened, which means you are strongly connected to the guidance you are being sent from the universe. You are more sensitive to energy and can pick up on things energetically. A very common example of this is thinking about someone and then immediately seeing them or receiving a phone call from them. You may even begin to develop mild psychic ability.
7) Receiving compliments, hugs and positive attention from others You are projecting love into the world, and therefore love is returning to you. Things just seem to be going your way, and you may be receiving more compliments than normal.

Written by Amateo Ra| Have you ever felt anxious being around other people? For some, the feelings of social anxiety can be so intense that someone can feel totally paralyzed just to be out in public. Could social anxiety's hidden link to empathy give us a greater understanding into the lives of those affected?
All logic can seem to fail in the face of social anxiety. The feelings associated may not seem to go away even with common treatments & healing techniques. Social anxiety overtime can turn into stories of being judged, not belonging or feeling so alienated that you look at Earth as the furthest thing from being at home.

Well, without further ado, I suppose I had better show off some of my wares.
Below are a selection of one-pagers I worked on in various different capacities for the Transformers Mosaic fan project.
It was recently announced that the project was being brought to a close, which is a real shame, as it was working on these short strips that gave me a real opportunity to experiment with lettering and learn my craft. If not for my involvement with these comics, I may never have made the jump to doing freelance work. Ah well, nothing lasts forever, I guess.
Note that I've made an effort here to feature strips that I feel showcase my best lettering skills so far.
While I don't think these pages necessarily show off the very best work I can do (I look back at them and see some dodgy placements and other errors) they certainly point the way towards the kind of work I know I can do now, with the extra benefit of experience and study behind me. If you're not getting better at what you do as you move ahead, what's the point, eh?
It should be noted that these strips are all unofficial works, produced for fun, with no profits being made at any point during the process.

Strengthening the chain
How the impact of COVID-19 on global supply chains could drive demand for UK warehousing
The disruption caused by COVID-19 has raised profound questions about the viability of complex global supply chains. This could have important upside benefits for future warehousing demand, as UK companies look to future-proof their supply chains against further global supply shocks.
Who plans for a pandemic?
Prior to the COVID-19 outbreak, few UK companies would have factored a global pandemic into their assessment of supply chain risks, but it is now clear that consideration should be given to the potential impact of future epidemics and pandemics.
Indeed, COVID-19 may not be a one-off 'black swan' event; the World Economic Forum (WEF) warns that it is part of a pattern of increasingly frequent epidemics that have coincided with globalisation, urbanisation and climate change. Businesses should have contingency plans in case of future virus outbreaks, and supply chains should be designed to be resilient to similar major shock events.
Massive impact on global trade
Disruption to global supply chains started with the closure of factories in China's Hubei province, where the COVID-19 outbreak began. As a major global manufacturing hub, closures in Hubei had knock-on impacts for companies across the world. Following this, trade disruption rippled out globally as countries went into lockdown, and ports and airports closed.
Predictably, international measures to contain the COVID-19 pandemic have drastically impacted world trade activity. The World Trade Organisation (WTO) forecasts that global trade volumes could be down by as much as 32% in 2020. In the UK, Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) data indicates that the manufacturing sector is in the midst of its deepest downturn in living memory.
World merchandise trade volume
Due to its complex, just-in-time supply chains, the car industry is among those most affected by the disruption. Technology companies' reliance on components manufactured in China has also been highlighted, with the supply of products such as the Apple iPhone and the Nintendo Switch reportedly delayed by factory closures.
Future-proofing supply chains
Daily number of ships visiting UK ports
While most factories in China have now reopened, and supply chain issues have started to ease in the UK (demonstrated by an uptick in the number of ships entering ports in recent weeks), it is likely to be years before trade is back to pre-crisis levels. Moreover, debate surrounds whether things will ever return to the way they were, following the experience of the pandemic.
Indeed, for many UK firms that import goods and components, the pandemic has highlighted an over-reliance on complex and lengthy supply chains, created out of the desire to find the most cost-effective suppliers wherever they may be in the world. Many global supply chains need to run like clockwork to be successful, and the failure of any single link in a chain can cause it to break down.
Companies whose supply chains have been found wanting during the current crisis may need to start by ensuring that they are fully abreast of their supply processes, understanding the identity of not just their suppliers, but who supplies the suppliers. It is also important to have a 'plan B'; firms need to have alternative suppliers available should issues arise in their current supply chain.
Some firms will seek to shorten supply chains to reduce risk, or to diversify them so that they are not overly dependent on any single supplier or country. There may be a particular desire to be less reliant on Chinese suppliers, which could spur decisions to diversify manufacturing supply chains to other countries, such as alternative South Asian hubs, or to bring production back to home shores.
The reshoring of manufacturing activity to the UK was already gaining momentum prior to COVID-19, and it may now be given a turbo-boost. According to a recent poll, 59% of UK manufacturers expect the current crisis to trigger reshoring strategies. With international manufacturing hubs offering diminishing cost advantages, and risk becoming a bigger factor in supply decisions, this could ultimately lead to increased demand for UK manufacturing facilities.
Resilience over efficiency
The rethinking of supply chains could also have important consequences for logistics property demand. In a world of heightened risks, a change of emphasis may be needed in supply chain planning, so that resilience and flexibility are prioritised over cost efficiency – a case of less 'just in time' and more 'just in case'. A key approach to mitigating future risks will be to hold larger inventories.
Higher inventory levels, alongside the accelerated adoption of e-commerce, could generate significant demand for warehousing space. Looking at the US market, Prologis has estimated that inventory levels could be raised by 5-10% as a result of COVID-19. If a similar increase were seen in the UK, it would translate to demand for tens of millions of square feet of logistics space.
Granted, companies would need to invest in additional logistics space to build additional resilience, but the costs of doing so could potentially be dwarfed by the revenues that they risk losing if they are unprepared for a future supply shock of a similar magnitude to COVID-19.
Reports heralding the end of global supply chains are likely to prove premature. However, the COVID-19 crisis will have thoroughly tested the robustness of firms' supply chains and the lessons learnt over recent months will play an important role in shaping supply chain design for years to come.

Q: Go not receiving error will trigger panic but receiving error will not trigger panic With the following code:
var i interface{} = "hello"

f, ok := i.(float64)
fmt.Println(f, ok)

f = i.(float64) // panic
fmt.Println(f)

Why is not catching error will cause panic but catching error will not cause a panic?
Any documentation or blogpost explaining this concept?

A: This is a type assertion & is documented in the Go spec here:

The value of ok is true if the assertion holds. Otherwise it is false
and the value of v is the zero value for type T. No run-time panic
occurs in this case.

With the check in place & there is a type mismatch, the value will be set to the "zero" value of type float32 (a number) so 0.
Without the runtime check, you should be absolutely sure the type will match, and the spec dictates a panic will occur if not.
This pattern is no different than basic error checking e.g.
// v, err := someapi(). // Should check err ...

v, _ := someapi() // deliberately ignore error

v.SomeMethod() // ... Panic as v probably nil if there was an error

Small Business Cyber Bill Cost Pegged at $11M Over 5 Years
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimated on June 7 that H.R.1648, the Small Business Advanced Cybersecurity Enhancements Act of 2019, will cost about $2 million annually to implement, and $11 million in total between 2019 and 2024, if the bill is enacted.
The legislation, which is sponsored by Rep. Steve Chabot, R-Ohio, would amend the Small Business Act to create enhanced cybersecurity assistance and protections for small businesses.
The bill would "direct the Small Business Administration (SBA) to establish a central small business cybersecurity assistance unit within the National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center in the Department of Homeland Security." In total, 63 small business development centers (SBDCs) would be required to establish regional cybersecurity assistance units to work with small businesses and to coordinate with the central small business cybersecurity assistance unit, the CBO explained. The units would "serve as the primary interface for small business concerns to receive and share cyber threat indicators and defensive measures with the Federal government."
CBO said its estimate covers creation and operation of the central small business cybersecurity assistance unit for the 2019-2024 time period, and additional funding for the operations of regional cybersecurity assistance units at the SBDCs. CBO said that spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds.
