Texas school shooting: Custom casket maker helping families of Uvalde school shooting

Casket maker donates to victims of Uvalde shooting
FOX 26 Reporter Tiffany Justice spoke with the casket maker about why he's donating to the victims of the Uvalde mass shooting.
EDNA, Texas - Trey Ganem, a custom casket maker in Edna, is stepping in to help the victims of the Uvalde school shooting.
The shooting took the lives of 19 children and two teachers. Ganem met with many of the families Wednesday, a day after the shooting.

He says, transforming the caskets into more than just an object, helps the families remember the good times.
Ganmen tells FOX 26 that he cannot go into too much detail on the casket, while he showed the first casket he will work on.
"This casket is for an adult, for a very beautiful person, who tried to protect children," said Trey Ganem, Soul Shine Inc. "I sat with the family. I was drawn to this casket, especially after hearing the stories."

He says meeting with the families one-on-one is a special part of the process.
"Building that relationship, being able to go to their homes is something that is very emotional for me," said Ganem. "To listen to them talk about their loved one, it helps me incorporate the design for these caskets. When people talk about what they loved, they start smiling. Even though it's this horrible time, they're remembering the joy and the love their loved ones had."

It's been a community effort, Trey says Friday morning they'll be receiving 17 children's caskets from Georgia and six caskets are set to be taken down to Uvalde by Sunday.
"It's not a box anymore. It's a beautiful creation that represents their loved ones," said Ganem.
Trey has stepped in before to help grieving families, like murdered Ft. Hood soldier Vanessa Guillen, and 4-year-old Maleah Davis, who went missing back in 2019 and was eventually found on the side of the road in a trash bag in Arkansas.

Frying pan death suspect mentally cleared to face trial
Posted Jun 26, 2015 on www.calgarysun.com
The trial for the 2012 death of Gatleak Thor Metkurjock will now proceed after the suspect has been declared as mentally fit to stand trial following a psychiatric assessment.
The suspect, who was 17 years old at the time of the incident, is facing second-degree murder charges for allegedly bashing Thor Metkurjock in the head with a frying pan.
At that time, Thor Metkurjock and the suspect was attending a house party. The victim had passed out drunk and was being brought out. He had woken up and was belligerent so the suspect allegedly got a frying pan and hit him with it.
Calgary criminal defense lawyer Andre Ouellette is representing the suspect, who is now 20 years old.
Ouellette said that he had concerns with his client's capability to undergo trial but now they have been allayed, thus, they will now proceed to trial.
Woman gets conditional sentence for faking own abduction
Posted Jun 17, 2015 on www.edmontonsun.com
Caitlin Rose Pare will be spending four months under house arrest as part of her one year conditional sentence after she submitted a guilty plea to public mischief.
The 25-year-old Pare was charged after she admitted to faking her own abduction to collect money from her family and boyfriend to pay off a drug debt.
Pare, who has a three-year-old daughter, got hooked on drugs after she became addicted to painkillers which were prescribed for her back injury.
Edmonton criminal defence lawyer Amy Lind said her client had no previous record of criminality until she became a drug addict.
After serving her conditional sentence, Pare will be made to undergo probation for a year and a half.
Man to stay away from home every time there are children around
Posted Feb 13, 2015 on www.calgarysun.com
Miles Jarvis Clark should make sure that he is not home every time there are children around.
This after he was charged with sexual assault and sexual interference and is currently out on a bail while awaiting trial.
Clark's wife runs a daycare in their home from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and as part of his bail conditions, he is to stay away from home on those hours.
However, the Crown found out that the daycare actually opens as early as 6 a.m. so the conditions have been changed and that is Clark should stay away whenever there are children around in his home.
Calgary criminal lawyer Alain Hepner, defending for Clark, said that since the charges have been filed, there have been no children left at the daycare.
Hepner said they may be seeking more changes in the conditions of his client's bail such as that he may be permitted to stay in his home on his days off.
Clark was charged when in January, the parents of a boy, 4, complained to the police that their child have been sexually assaulted.
Man pleads guilty to dangerous driving, hit-and-run
Posted Feb 03, 2015 on www.edmontonjournal.com
Brandon James Hudson submitted a guilty plea to several counts of dangerous driving causing bodily harm and hit-and-run in relation to an incident which happened in the afternoon of September 24 last year.
While high on drugs, Hudson had stolen his stepfather's sedan and drove through the streets inflicting injury to several people.
Hudson, however, could not remember anything that happened on that fateful day, according to Edmonton lawyer Anna Konye, who is defending him.
Hudson's atrocities did not stop when his very damaged vehicle refused to start, he tried to flee the police on foot and when he was finally detained, he attacked his cellmate.
The Crown prosecutor told the court that at the time of his arrest, Hudson was mumbling about people going after him and how he could not escape them.
A hearing for his sentencing has yet to be scheduled as Hudson has been ordered to go through a psychiatric exam.
Mom to undergo preliminary trial for daughter's death
Laura Lee Coward has been scheduled to undergo a preliminary hearing this August to determine if there is enough evidence to let her stand trial for the death of her daughter.
Amber Lucius was nine years old when her body was found last year inside a parked vehicle.
At the time Amber Lucius's body was found, Coward was supposed to have returned her already to the care of her father.
Coward was arrested near the area where Amber Lucius was found and charged with first degree murder for her daughter's death.
Coward is represented by Calgary defence lawyer Jim Lutz, who have yet to apply bail for his client.

Man who attacks several women in Terwillegar gets 12-year prison term
Posted Jan 29, 2016 on edmontonjournal.com
Mark Moriarty, who has been terrorizing women in the Terwillegar area in Edmonton, will be spending 12 years in prison after pleading guilty to a total of 17 charges, the most serious of which is sexual assault.
The 12-year sentence was closer to what Tania Holland, prosecutor for the Crown, asked which was 15 and a half years.
This was countered by Steve Fix, a criminal defence lawyer in Edmonton representing Moriarty who asked for no more than between eight to 10 years saying that his client could still redeem himself and blaming his actions to his addiction to cocaine.
Moriarty had shown remorse for his crime, however, it seems that the victims' statements had more impact collectively describing the attacks as horrible and pointing out what a manipulator Moriarty was.
The charges stemmed from attacks on eight victims, the youngest of which was a girl aged 14 years old, from 2012 to 2014.
Calgary immigration lawyer asks CBSA to be humane to client
Bjorn Harsanyi, an immigration lawyer in Calgary, is asking the Canada Border Service Agency (CBSA) to help his client, Aida Castilla Romero, to return to her native country of Mexico by land.
Romero's work permit has expired and although she is willing to go home, she is afraid to get on a plane because she fears her lungs might collapse due to a rare disease that she has been diagnosed with.
Because of her health condition, Romero's lungs had collapsed a year after she came to Canada to work. While getting treatment, the terms of Romero's work permit ended. She was refused an extension and was denied a refugee status and eventually received a deportation order.
Cautioned by a doctor against flying as it would cause her lungs to collapse again; Romero through Harsanyi asked the CBSA to allow her to go back to Mexico by land. This, however, was denied too.
Harsanyi is appealing for the CBSA to help his client get a visa so she can travel to Mexico by land passing through the US as this is within the agency's capabilities.
There has been no word yet from the CBSA and Romero fears that she would be forced to board a plane when the deportation date arrives, least she would get arrested again which is what happened when her lawyer had informed the CBSA of her growing fears. They had deemed she would not get on her deportation flight.
Lawyers of beating death suspect want him to stay in Calgary
Posted Jan 18, 2016 on www.calgarysun.com
Jillian Williamson, a criminal defence lawyer in Calgary, is seeking the transfer of Riel Rider from Edmonton to the Calgary Remand Centre.
The 19-year-old Rider has been accused of beating to death Christa Cachene last October and he is now facing second-degree murder charges.
Williamson told Judge Jim Ogle of the provincial court that having Rider in Edmonton is making it very hard to communicate with him especially for Calgary defence lawyer Balfour Der, who is acting as the lead counsel for his defence.
The lawyer added that they would have to meet with Rider several times which is why they need him to be in Calgary.
Judge Ogle said he will make the order, although he is hesitant about doing so and he wants to know first the impact of such move from remand officers.

In the early 1980s, Germany started a new era of modern Antarctic research. The Alfred Wegener Institute Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) was founded and important research platforms such as the German permanent station in Antarctica, today called Neumayer III, and the research icebreaker Polarstern were installed. The research primarily focused on the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean. In parallel, the German National Science Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft DFG) started a Priority Program 'Antarctic Research' (since 2003 called SPP-1158) to foster and intensify the cooperation between scientists from different German universities and the AWI as well as other institutes involved in polar research. Here, we review the main findings in meteorology and oceanography of the last decade, funded by the priority program. The paper presents field observations and modelling efforts, extending from the stratosphere to the deep ocean. The research spans a large range of temporal and spatial scales, including the interaction of both climate components. In particular, radiative processes, the interaction of the changing ozone layer with large-scale atmospheric circulations, and changes in the sea ice cover are discussed. Climate and weather forecast models provide an insight into the water cycle and the climate change signals associated with synoptic cyclones. Investigations of the atmospheric boundary layer focus on the interaction between atmosphere, sea ice, and ocean in the vicinity of polynyas and leads. The chapters dedicated to polar oceanography review the interaction between the ocean and ice shelves with regard to the freshwater input and discuss the changes in water mass characteristics, ventilation and formation rates, crucial for the deepest limb of the global, climate relevant meridional overturning circulation. They also highlight the associated storage of anthropogenic carbon as well as the cycling of carbon, nutrients, and trace metals in the ocean with special emphasis on the Weddell Sea.

This article by @for91days is part of a blockchain Future Forward series. Explore the tag#futureforward to discover community-driven Steemians looking ahead and setting big goals within the crypto-sphere.
This is the final Syllabus of the @sndbox incubator for this year. We've been asked to imagine where we see ourselves in the world of Crypto in 2020. Considering that I haven't been dealing with Crypto for even a year and seeing how much I'm involved now, anything could be possible. Thanks to Steemit and the amazing people I've met, the Blockchain feels like a permanent part of my future. I'm excited to continue with Steemit, and see where the crypto path takes us.
My biggest wish would be to be create a successful standalone Travelfeed platform, encouraging travelers outside of the Blockchain to share their stories. I hoping that TravelFeed will be enough someday to help travelers to finance their trips. It'd be amazing to make the dream come true for those who want to travel, be independent and make a living while being on the road. We totally understand the fear of loving a lifestyle, but not being able to continue with it. I know how this dread can limit you, and generate stress, and it'd be nice to help alleviate that for others.
Along with the entire TravelFeed team, I see such huge potential in the travel community. There are so many people who are traveling or would like to, but don't know where to start or how to finance it. With the TravelFeed platform, we'd like to take that fear away, and guide travelers in the right direction.
With our movie recommendation site Criticker, we'd love to move forward with the introduction of SMTs and maybe ease the way of our long term users into the world of Crypto by implementing the @tokenbb forums, which could be the gateway to it. On top of it, we're playing with the idea of making Criticker opensource, to take advantage of the workforce we would have access to via @utopian-io.
As for our personal project For 91 Days, I want to continue traveling. Lately, we've had to take it easier due to some unfortunate financial realities. But starting in January 2018, For91days will be in full swing again with some slight changes. We'll once again be posting daily, growing our readership, producing amazing content, and increasing our presence on the Steem Blockchain.

Combichrist, "We Love You"
Posted by alex | Mar 28, 2014 | Reviews | 3
Metropolis Records/Out of Line
The total ubiquity of 2005's Everybody Hates You – a record whose dancefloor presence is so universal that even if you never heard Combichrist outside of your local clubnight, you'd still know almost every song on it – tends to mask the fact that Combichrist has been at least three different bands over the course of the last decade. The early, wholly electronic years are distinct in sound and presentation from the current day; Andy LaPlegua is undoubtedly still at the helm of the project, but the CC name has gone from a moniker for one of his solo projects to representing a full-band, at least insofar as the project's marketing is concerned (cynically, I suspect that bands are easier to sell to the broader audience Combi has been courting the since 2010's Making Monsters and their run opening for Rammstein in Europe than solo production projects). In 2014, the Combichrist identity is that of a mid-level touring electronic metal combo. That's a cross-section that theoretically appeals to both heavy rock audiences and listeners primed for aggressive electronics by the mainstream's acceptance of mid-rangey brostep, which now serves as the car commercial and FPS video game soundtrack du jour.
We Love You is clearly a record written to be performed by the project's current incarnation: I can't imagine the bombast of these songs scaling well to a smaller show (despite some recent live dates that featured solely LaPlegua and percussionist Joe Letz on keys). There's nothing wrong with that posture in practice, really; older Combi material has never really benefited from having guitars grafted to it in a live setting, which is for better or worse pretty much the best way to experience the project. Breaking it down to a binary of "you'll like it if you like the guitars/hate it if you hate the guitars" is simplistic but useful: there's not much here for the latter crowd. The agenda is mirrored in the arrangement of opener "We Were Made to Love You", where a highly promising synth and sample intro is washed away in a wave of distorted chording and half-time drums, the electronics providing wubby accents and occasional glitching.
If we accept that the sound of We Love You is just what Combichrist is doing right now, and acknowledge that they execute it well from a technical standpoint (which they do: you can't take much away from the production or performances in terms of polish), then the question really becomes whether the songs suit the band's current purpose. The answer is a resounding "sometimes". By far the record's best moments are the ones on which totally distance themselves from the sort of hard-dance jams Combi used to be associated with, and invest fully into the identity they're trying to sell us. "Maggots at the Party" is a big dumb anthem that revolves wholly around a speedy rock drum break and catchy processed riff, with LaPlegua coming across like a cyborg Andrew WK, right down to the sly nods to pop dressed up in rocker leather. Contrast it with the uninspired "Every Day is War", essentially a rewrite of the band's own club hit "Get Your Body Beat" right down to the squealing lead sound, the added guitar the one major deviation.
It's a noticeable divide that plays out again and again during the listening experience. Pre-release single "From My Cold Dead Hands" comes across as a retrofit, the sole song with no obvious guitar it was an obvious choice for an attempt reignite the club scene's love of Combichrist. Its dancefloor friendly beats feel anemic next to the over-the-top "We Rule the World Motherfuckers", a juggernaut that dwarfs the less committed songs of the album with its grandiose arrangement, and one of the moments where Combi's world-beating energy as a live act can be heard most clearly. I even think the piano-led power ballad "The Evil in Me" works well for what it is; if nothing else it showcases Andy's ridiculous charisma as a performer and his ear for melody and phrasing, the song's climactic strings and sustained wall of six string noise lending it the sort of straight-faced gravitas that any song like it needs to hit home. It's not the kind of song you would ever hear on an older Combichrist album, and that's what makes it seem totally appropriate here.
That those succesful tracks can share an LP with loops-extended-to-song-length like "Fuck Unicorns" and the Tool-lite of "Retreat Hell Part 1" would seem to indicate that Combichrist may not yet be at home in their current day skin, grasping at whatever ideas seem good in the moment. Closer "Retreat Hell Part 2" seems to reinforce that: an eight minute long stream of consciousness rant in song form, it sounds like LaPlegua defensively shooting back at his critics, and more tellingly, at ex-fans who have abandoned and denounced the project in recent years. It's out of step with the persona of the angry rock god he portrays himself as elsewhere, an internal struggle that lies at the heart of the LP. We Love You is the sound of Combichrist banging hard against a glass ceiling, trying to muscle their way up and onto a broader stage while standing on the shoulders of fans that could very well be alienated in the attempt. It's a precarious place to be creatively, and it's only when they act like they've already succeeded in conquering everything that the possibility of breaking through seems real. Combichrist loves us, now they need to stop caring whether we love them back or not.

I think the album is utter and complete bullscat. But I don't hold it against them – if that's the road they want to go that's just fine with me and probably many other people that used to be into them. There's plenty of other bands out there who stay off the rock-god path.
chris	on March 29, 2014 at 7:12 am
Though I've never been much of a Combi fan, I listened to this album at the pre-release stream to try to understand all the fuss over this band. The album is dreadful. The problem isn't the guitars; it's that the songs sound like so many guitar+electronics bands from the early 90s who tried to cash in on the mainstream industrial trend. It's just so dated.
And that's not to mention Andy's mindlessly stupid lyrics. I can't imagine sitting at a dinner party with him… it'd be like dining with a barely functioning retard.

Currently one of my favorite tools is soft pastel. Soft pastel is pigment in a small stick. The pigment is held together with binders. In the cheaper ones there are more 'fillers' (nonpigmented).
Soft pastel is easy to love. I love how easy it is to put a lot of color on a page. I love the lusciousness of the colors. There are also some major drawbacks, they give off dust, it gets everywhere and you need to clean the pastels regularly. But that is a lot easier than brush cleaning. So I'm happy with them.
I set myself the target to learn to use pastels. This is only one target next to some others, such as making a lot of portraits and organizing an exhibition, developing drawing courses and selling them. I also wanted to learn to work with gouache – took a course – and found I don't like the medium very much.
I'm combining targets at present. Teaching a course called "Coloring with the Masters" and having my students draw in colored pencil, oil pastels and -tada!- soft pastel. I'm doing what I learned in university – make sure you're a bit ahead of your students. So working with pastels and sharing basic tips and techniques that I've picked up over the past years (and am learning myself right now).
I would love to hear what your favorite art tool is.
Watercolor. I thought some of your previous work was in gouache. Wrong I take it. What is it you didn't like? I want to try that a bit more myself.
Anyway, I can so relate. I love it too. I'm just not using it a lot lately.
Ah, about the gouache, it feels gritty and I don't like the feel of the brush with paint on the paper. Perhaps I could get over that if I try again. It's just that I like the feel of the paint much better in watercolor. What I did like was that it's opaque, so there's always a possibility to paint over previous layers and obliterate them (if I feel I must).

Episode 100 sees Eddie shipped off to a Taiwanese culture exchange program, modeled after the infamous "Love Boat" study tour for young Taiwanese Americans. Many Asian Americans will be familiar with this program -- there's even a documentary about it -- but it'll probably new to mainstream TV audiences. Kind of amazing.
Tonight's episode, titled "Under the Taipei Sun," also marks something of a crossover for (North) Asian American television. Simu Liu, who plays Jung on the beloved Canadian sitcom Kim's Convenience, guest stars as a noodle vendor named Willie who helps out Eddie when he gets separated from his tour group.

Spring, 1849. The first male child born on the newly established Republic of Texas, Eli McCullough is 13 years old when a marauding band of Comanche storm his homestead and brutally murder his mother and sister, taking him captive. Brave and clever, Eli quickly adapts to Comanche life, learning their ways and language, answering to a new name, carving a place as the chef's adopted son, and waging war against their enemies, including white men - complicating his sense of loyalty and understanding of who he is. But when disease, starvation, and overwhelming numbers of armed Americans decimate the tribe, Eli finds himself alone.


I have to be honest: I'm not really big on wearing makeup. I know, I know… What kind of beauty blogger am I who is not into makeup? I've learned over the years that I look and feel my best when I look and feel like ME, which means I shy away from heavy makeup, especially for my day-to-day look.
Although I prefer a more natural look, I do need a little help in making my natural look, well, more natural. That's why I have fallen in l-o-v-e with the two products I'm about to share with you that not only give you a nice, smooth complexion, but also help preserve that au-naturale glow all day long.
I usually have oily/combination skin, but thanks to the Polar Vortex, my skin has been dry around my nose and under eye area, especially in the mornings. I've been using heavier moisturizers to combat the dryness, which means by the middle of the day, my skin has all of a sudden turned shiny again.
Since I've started using the NARS Pore-Perfector, my face no longer has a double-dose of shine by the time I leave for my lunch break. Halleju! My everyday look consists of concealer (I love anything by MAC and Smashbox), tinted moisturizer (either by Laura Mercier or Cosmedicine) and a quick swipe of pressed powder (Cover FX for the win). All of this takes me about 3-minutes to apply each morning. It's very light coverage.
Lately, I've been wearing the Pore Perfector under all of this, and I can definitely see that it gives the appearance that I am applying a fuller face of makeup. Someone even asked me the other day, "Are you wearing a new foundation?" A) I was not. Nothing about my regimen had changed… and B) It obviously looked like I had on more foundation-like coverage, which is heavier than a few dabs of concealer and tinted moisturizer. All in all, I looked like I had perfect skin!
Now that we know what to put under our makeup for a flawless finish, this is something you can put on top of your makeup to minimize shine later in the day. This handy powder will absolutely do the trick. It's no larger than a travel-sized tube of toothpaste, which makes it great for tossing in your handbag or clutch. There's a built-in brush, so you have everything you need in this one magical tube. It's so convenient!
I tried it on a few days when I was not wearing the NARS Pore Perfector, so I could see how it worked on its own. Around noon, I swiped the powder over my cheeks and forehead and in 5-seconds flat, I looked like I had applied a whole new, fresh face of makeup.
The powder is very light and did not look or feel cakey on top of my skin. I also loved that the powder disappeared into my skintone. As a woman of color, I've tried a few "translucent" powders that are anything but, and leave residue or an ashy film behind. The Porefessional Agent Zero Shine was fast-absorbing and totally transparent.

Australia's big four banks to be forced to keep more money in New Zealand
By business reporter Stephanie Chalmers

Related Story: Aussie bank returns and dividends could be hit by NZ requirements, say analysts
Australia's big four banks will be forced to keep billions of dollars more in New Zealand after the country's central bank increased bank capital requirements, but analysts say they should not have to cut dividends to fund it.
ANZ, CBA, Westpac say they are well placed to meet the new requirements by the mid-2027 deadline
A banking analyst says banks should be able to fund it by retaining profits in their NZ businesses
The RBNZ wants to level the playing field between the big four and smaller banks
The long-flagged capital increase will see New Zealand's largest banks — ANZ, Westpac, NAB's Bank of New Zealand and Commonwealth Bank's ASB Bank — required to raise their total capital to 18 per cent of assets, up from the current minimum of 10.5 per cent.
However, the major bank stocks rose this session, due to some concessions in the final announcement, including a longer transition period.
At 12:00pm (AEDT) shares in ANZ (+2.2pc), CBA (+0.9pc), NAB (+1.9pc) and Westpac (+1 pc) were all strongly higher in a rising market.
Banking analyst Brett Le Mesurier, from Shaw and Partners, said the impact of the changes was more than priced in by the market.
"It's in line with what they were initially expecting but not as bad as what they feared might happen," Mr Le Mesurier said.
"The announcement is marginally positive, but overall the returns for the banks operating in New Zealand will be lower as a result of this."
Have the Kiwis got the jump?
The Reserve Bank of New Zealand cut interest rates in May, despite having a lower unemployment rate than Australia. Has the RBA waited to long to move by staying on hold?
The 2.5-year review was undertaken by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand to force banks to have "more skin in the game" to help protect against a future banking crisis.
"Our decisions are not just about dollars and cents. More capital in the banking system better enables banks to weather economic volatility and maintain good, long-term customer outcomes," RBNZ governor Adrian Orr said.
The big four will be required to hold 13.5 per cent common equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital, the highest quality of capital — including shares and retained earnings.
Australia's prudential regulator APRA requires a ratio of 10.5 per cent CET1 for the Australian banks.
Bank dividends not expected to take a hit
The changes will begin to come into effect in July next year but will now be phased in over seven years, giving the banks more time than the five-year timeframe originally proposed.
Earlier this year as the RBNZ's review was underway, bank analysts had warned the changes would have a material impact on the Australian banks, with the potential to hit the dividends paid out to Australian shareholders.
Today, Mr Le Mesurier said dividends did not look to be in jeopardy.
"I think the banks can fund it through retaining profit in their own businesses in New Zealand, and retain in the order of 25-40 per cent of those profits and that should allow them to meet those capital requirements," he said.
That estimate assumes the banks will sustain their current level of profits during the transition period, which Mr Le Mesurier believes is the likely outcome.
"Of course, a seven-year period is a long period and there can be deterioration between now and then."
The RBNZ's final requirements allow a greater proportion of capital to be held in preference shares, including hybrids, than originally proposed.
"That means they can go a broader range of investors and not rely so much on their own internal sources," Mr Le Mesurier said.
"Preference shares are a cheaper source of capital than common equity, so this will reduce the overall impact on bank funding costs," Westpac NZ senior economist Michael Gordon said.
"With seven years to transition, as well as the ability to issue preference shares as capital, banks can meet the new requirements with room to pay dividends to shareholders," the RBNZ said.
'Lower than previously anticipated': ANZ
ANZ, which is the largest bank in New Zealand, said it would need to increase its CET1 capital by $3 billion by mid-2027, not including $1.4 billion in profits it retained in New Zealand last year in preparation for the changes.
The bank described the total impact of $4.5 billion as "lower than what was previously anticipated", due to the longer transition period.
"While the increased capital requirements remain significant, the consultation was thorough and the concerns of industry were given a fair hearing," ANZ chief executive Shayne Elliott said.
"We have been planning for these changes since the original consultation. Given the extended transition period and our strong capital position, we are confident we can meet the higher requirements without the need to raise additional capital."
The Commonwealth Bank said its New Zealand subsidiary ASB Bank would require an additional $2.4 billion in CET1 capital by mid-2027 and it was "well placed to meet the changes".
However, it warned "a significant increase in capital ultimately increase the cost of providing loans to customers".
"We will consider ways to minimise the financial impact from the requirements while supporting our customers and growth in the New Zealand economy."
Westpac said it would require up to $2.8 billion extra in Tier 1 capital to meet the requirements in the seven-year timeframe.
Video: Assistant governor of the RBNZ Christian Hawkesby discusses bank capital. (The Business)
In a note, Westpac NZ economists said the requirements would result in "wider bank margins and a lower level of economic activity".
"The new requirements were broadly what we expected, and constituted a modest softening relative to the original proposal — banks will still be required to increase their capital substantially," Westpac's Michael Gordon wrote.
The changes were also designed to level the playing field between larger banks and smaller banks.
New Zealand's smaller banks will have a 16 per cent capital requirement, with 11.5 per cent being CET1.
"Large banks have been holding less capital than small banks for the same risks," the RBNZ said in a statement.
"The 2019 reforms will reduce this advantage and require the biggest banks to hold a higher level of capital because their failure would have greater costs for New Zealand."

Zoox Smart Data Poised to Continue Rapid Growth in 2021
Home/Zoox Smart Data Poised to Continue Rapid Growth in 2021
By Isabel Crowther|2020-12-21T15:12:11-05:00December 17th, 2020|
Alpharetta, GA — December 17, 2020 — Zoox Smart Data ("Zoox"), an international provider of advanced technological solutions that harness big data to build detailed customer profiles over existing Wi-Fi networks, is set to maintain its impressive global expansion trajectory into 2021 with recent customer additions that include major organizations from the hospitality, travel and casino industries. Renowned brand names such as Royal Resorts are moving to adopt Zoox Smart Data solutions as competition continues to grow for providing guests with hyper-personalized experiences that translate into enhanced satisfaction, loyalty and business revenue.
"The last few months have been an exciting period of ever-growing demand for Zoox solutions and has led to the establishing of a North American headquarters in the Atlanta metropolitan area along with the appointment of several new leadership figures, including Sandy James as Director of Business Development," said David Tyre, VP of Business Development- North America for Zoox. "Hospitality and travel businesses such as Royal Resorts are under increasing pressure to adapt to an industry where experience personalization is now essential to remaining competitive. We are honored to address a previously unfulfilled global market need using advanced technology that converts once unprofitable Wi-Fi services into an opportunity for greater guest experience satisfaction while boosting reputations and revenue."
In collaboration with Zoox partner, Single Digits, Royal Resorts is implementing the Zoox Smart Data platform for all public resort areas situated throughout Mexico. Providing the ability to monetize a property's guest internet service, Zoox Smart Data was further deployed for 2,000 guestrooms at one of Royal Resorts location. An advanced cloud-based solution, Zoox Smart Data significantly provides Royal Resorts and other hospitality or travel businesses with the opportunity to tap into demographic and psychographic analytics that are compiled on each guest. Valuable metrics that are stored in individual profiles and that can be used to identify guest preferences include marital status, income level, hobby interests and active memberships. Once a guest agrees to take part in the service, hotels and other organizations equipped with Zoox can then instantly begin to promote targeted offerings that resonate with personal needs or interests via Wi-Fi login landing pages. With Zoox's recent launch of local advertising capabilities, guests and travelers can even be made aware of nearby services and amenities that match their unique expectations for an ideal travel experience. Examples include regional tour guides, restaurants, bars, sporting events or souvenir shops.
"Each client continues to describe the integration of their Wi-Fi service with our Zoox platform as a previously untapped resource of customer intelligence that can take goals of achieving enhanced satisfaction, loyalty and profitability to new heights," said Sandy James, Director of Business Development – North America for Zoox. "Being able to instantly provide guests and travelers with details on services and offerings that actually relate to their interests and needs is fast becoming a defining factor in being able to run a successful business, and we expect that demand for our solutions will only continue to grow worldwide as more locations strive to provide the ideal experience for their customers."
In addition to expanding its customer base with clients such as Royal Resorts, Zoox has also entered into several agreements where organizations can leverage the company's flexibility to discover the benefits of using Zoox Smart Data technology. Examples include a hotel group with seven properties located throughout North America and a casino company that operates several locations in the United States.
Zoox Media, a component of the Zoox Smart Data platform, has also played a central role in the company's ongoing rapid global growth. A solution that serves as a direct channel to promoting ads on personal devices and that offers detailed insight into the effectiveness of promotional campaigns, Zoox Media is now featured in 14 major airports in Portugal as well as 240 Louvre Hotel locations in France. Zoox Media has also been adopted by a mass transit company that operates 25,000 buses in Mexico.

Reds Under the Bed? Christians Under the Couch!
Conspiracy sells. Just ask Dan Brown. But unwarranted anxiety about conspiracy also poisons our shared public life.
Conspiracy hunting used to be a sport dominated by conservatives. Think Joe McCarthy waving his sweaty lists of communist infiltrators. In recent years, though, politicians and commentators have found a new subversive threat: the Religious Right. A new book by former GOP functionary Mike Lofgren, for instance, warns of the ways his Republican Party was infiltrated and taken over by "stealthily fundamentalist" religious conservatives.
This kind of "paranoid style" has a long history in American public life. Witches were fiendishly difficult to detect in seventeenth-century New England. Scheming Catholics worried nineteenth-century WASPs. Communists emerged as the primary subversive threat in America's twentieth century.
Leaders of the Religious Right have often worked up convincing conspiracies of their own. As historian William Trollinger has described, this tradition started with the first generation of American fundamentalists in the 1920s. One of the most prominent leaders of that Scopes generation, William Bell Riley, finally blamed evolutionary theory on a far-reaching plot of "Jewish Communists."
In 1926, as I describe in my 1920s book (now in paperback!), one of the new grassroots fundamentalist organizations, the Bible Crusaders, announced the root of the evolution problem. "Thirty years ago," the Bible Crusaders revealed,
"five men met in Boston and formed a conspiracy which we believe to be of German origin, to secretly and persistently work to overthrow the fundamentals of the Christian religion in this country."
A generation later, writing in the magazine of Chicago's Moody Bible Institute, one evangelical writer shared his experience with the famous progressive educator John Dewey. This writer told a cautionary tale of secularist conspiracy, with a story of Dewey's eighty-fifth birthday party in 1944. Our evangelical witness had been invited to the celebration, the other guests unaware of his theological commitment. Celebrating the life of the prominent progressive educator, the guests proudly recalled their efforts to transform America's schools from Christian institutions to secular training centers. "A generation has passed since that birthday gathering," reported the evangelical spy to the MBI readership,
"and the plan has been immeasurably advanced by a series of court decisions that have de-theized the public schools. As a result, American state-supported schools are as officially secular and materialistic as are their counterparts in Communist countries. Are we awakening?"
Such warnings shouted by Christian conservatives have occasionally attracted enormous audiences outside of religious circles. In the 1970s, Hal Lindsey's Late Great Planet Earth became a runaway bestseller. With his co-author Carole Carlson, Lindsey spun a premillennial dispensationalist reading of the Bible into a riveting tale of international conspiracy. In the premillennial dispensational interpretation, popular among some conservative evangelical Protestants, the Antichrist will return in the guise of a savior, combining governments into a massive superstate. What seems like secular salvation is quickly revealed as the ultimate cosmic conspiracy, dedicated to binding all of humanity to a Satanic anti-religion.
These themes saw another burst of popularity in the late 1990s, when Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins repeated Lindsey's feat. LaHaye's and Jenkins' Left Behind series fictionalized Lindsey's tale, again turning a conspiratorial interpretation of the apocalypse into beach reading for millions of Americans.
These Christian conspiracies have not been without cultural cost. Though LaHaye and Jenkins carefully included a righteous Roman Catholic Pope among their fictionalized true Christians, other Christian conspiracy theorists, like William Bell Riley, have been too quick to implicate anyone outside of their circle of conservative evangelical Protestantism.
The dangers from conspiracy theorizing are not limited to the conspiracies imagined by conservative Christians. Overheated accusations about the threat from subversive groups have long posed a profound danger to our public life, as any blacklisted Hollywood writer or interned Japanese-American could attest. The threat is not limited to false conspiracies. Satan may not have inspired Salem's witch troubles, but historian Ellen Schrecker has argued that the communist-hunters of the 1950s often targeted real communist conspirators, if in a clumsy and overly aggressive way.
Similarly, Lofgren's ominous warnings are not spun of whole cloth. Lofgren warns vaguely of the "ties" of many leading Republican politicians to extreme positions such as Christian Dominionism. This theology, associated most closely with the late Rousas John Rushdoony, wants to establish Christian fundamentalist control over American political life. As Lofgren emphasizes, such thinkers approve the need to act "stealthily."
Lofgren did not make this up. Dominionism exists. Prominent Republican politicians such as Rick Perry and Michele Bachmann really do work with groups who support such notions. But the way Lofgren and other commentators discuss such threats from the Christian Right distort the public discussion over the role of religion in the public sphere. As with warnings about President Obama's connections to the "terrorist professor" Bill Ayers, this kind of conspiratorial rhetoric encourages a no-holds-barred approach to politics.
After all, as Lofgren intones, the "'lying for Jesus' strategy that fundamentalists often adopt" gives anti-fundamentalists a reason to punch below the belt in their culture-war battles. If they did not, the warning goes, they would be helpless before the wiles of the Christian Right. This is the primary danger of such breathless exposes as Lofgren's. They build a shaky and fantastic argument upon a foundation of authentic examples in order to convince the convinced. Activists swallow the outlandish examples without demur. Such true believers do not consider the real complexities of their opponents, but rather paint a simplistic and terrifying image to shock and motivate their own side.
As with the real communist movement, the real world of American conservative Christianity is not such a simple place. Nor is it so headline-grabbingly power hungry. Consider a recent leadership poll by the National Association of Evangelicals. This organization, an umbrella group for conservative evangelical Protestants, asked just over one hundred of its leaders if the United States constituted a "Christian Nation." Sixty-eight percent said no. One respondent told the NAE, "I hope others will learn to love Christ as I do, but that will happen more authentically through the Church and individual Christians sharing the Good News and demonstrating the person of Christ through our words and actions."
This kind of statement from a conservative Christian does not sell books. What does sell is a cherry-picked catalog of statements by Christian leaders revealing their plans to take over American politics and public life. It was easy enough in Cold War America to discover evidence of a world-wide subversive communist movement. But as America learned from Senator McCarthy's outlandish claims, there is a danger in stripping down the image of subversives to cartoonish bogeymen.
I am not a conservative Christian myself. I do not hope to apologize for the excesses of some conservative Christians. Indeed, I believe denunciations of the schemes of conservative Christians have some basis in fact. But when they serve only to encourage anti-fundamentalists to fight dirty, they do more harm than good. When such conspiracy-hunters ignore the complexities and ambiguities of their targets, they attack more than their real enemies. They smear innocent bystanders and poison the political life of the nation.

Forget the Zombies, It's a Bible Apocalypse
Kirk Cameron as Buck Williams
Ask Kirk Cameron. One of the most compelling parts of a Biblical worldview is its clear explanation of the future. And that future isn't too rosy, at least for those outside of the charmed circle of Biblical Christianity.
How are those of us outside this circle to understand this prophetic tradition? We might start by trying to understand the ways some conservative Protestants read the Bible. After all, if one believes in an inerrant Bible, one is encouraged to interpret its words in the most obvious sense. The dangers, in this tradition of Bible interpretation, come when readers exalt their own understanding higher than the words of Scripture.
And the most obvious interpretation of some Biblical books, such as Daniel and Revelation, is that they are prophecies of what is to come.
One of Clarence Larkin's dispensational charts (1919)
Through a few quirks of history—though, of course, no Bible Christian would likely consider them accidental—one interpretation of these prophecies has come to exert an outsized influence on conservative evangelical Protestant belief in 20th- and 21st-century America. This interpretation, burdened with the cumbersome name "dispensational premillennialism," has become the dominant form of understanding Bible prophecy among the subset of evangelicals who call themselves small-f fundamentalists.
For those like me–outside of this tradition but trying to understand it–it is well worth our time to read some of the terrific academic histories out there. The late Paul Boyer, of my alma mater, wrote a wonderful introduction to prophecy belief for outsiders. Writing from closer to the tradition, Timothy Weber also offered a great guide to the history of this theology. George Marsden also included a helpful introduction in his now-classic history of fundamentalism and American culture.
However, none of these terrific academic studies has reached the kind of audience that the prophecies themselves have claimed. Just as the Bible's continuing popularity must tell us something about the nature of popular religious belief in Fundamentalist America, so the popularity of rapture theology must hold some lessons.
In 1970, Hal Lindsey authored a runaway bestseller explaining this interpretation of the end days. The Late Great Planet Earth sold millions of copies. The book explained the themes of dispensational premillennial theology in an engaging and convincing way. Lindsey and co-author Carole Carlson mapped the predictions of Daniel and Revelation onto world events of the 1970s. As had generations of prophecy writers before him, Lindsey insisted that the world was entering the last days described to John in his Revelation.
A generation later, Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins repeated this feat with their Left Behind series. Beginning in the late 1990s, this fictionalized apocalypse told the story of end times, as understood by dispensational premillennialists. The series sold millions of copies, and soon spun off an empire of related products, including a kids' version and the movie starring Kirk Cameron.
What does the wild popularity of these books and their apocalyptic messages tell us about Fundamentalist America? One danger would be to assume that all of the millions of readers embraced the theology of rapture and Biblical apocalypse. It seems unlikely that all the readers of these books included themselves in the roll of Bible believers. Just as the popularity of Harry Potter does not imply an increase in the belief in magic, so the popularity of these books does not necessarily mean a huge bump in belief in this apocalyptic tradition. Nevertheless, conservative evangelical Protestants since the 1920s have argued for the importance of this particular way of understanding the Bible. These books helped cement that understanding in the popular imagination.
For many readers, whether or not they buy into the entire theology, The Late Great Planet Earth and the Left Behind books tell THE Biblical story of the last days, not just one interpretation.
For those of us hoping to understand the nature of Fundamentalist America, the books are worth reading. As long as we avoid the trap of thinking that these books are the last word in what conservative religious people really think, this vision of the nature of reality can go a long way to decoding some traditional shibboleths of the Fundamentalist tradition, such as the dangers of the United Nations and the importance of a strong Israel.
In each case, the politics of today and tomorrow have been explained thousands of years in advance. As Revelation explains, the Antichrist will appear as the savior of humanity. He will unite nations into one humanitarian global government. All will appear obviously to the good. For dispensational premillennialists, this prophecy provides fodder for an unyielding campaign against internationalism. In the United States, this tradition has fueled an intense animosity toward organizations such as the League of Nations and the United Nations. Again, we must not assume too much. Not every conservative anti-internationalist has based his or her opposition on Biblical prophecy. But among those who do, that opposition takes on more weight than simple policy considerations. The fight against internationalization becomes, for some Bible believers, a literal cosmic battle of Good vs. Evil. Understanding those roots will guide us in understanding the sometimes-puzzling international policies of some religious conservatives.
As reporter Buck Williams of the Left Behind series might explain, doubt and skepticism must end with the Rapture. After that, the only option left for a dedicated Tribulation Force is to fight tooth and nail against the scheming Evil of Carpathia and His Global Community.

There is a growing force of what are becoming known as "Digital Sherlocks" working with the NATO cyberwarfare division, tracking the Russian attacks on Western Democracies.
Wow. Almost as if Putin was trying to muddy the waters around attacking England with nerve agents.
1. The Russians are pushing a line that the Israelis tried to attack bases in Syria, but were beaten & humiliated by the amazing brave Russian air defences. This is being pushed by RT, and is meant to boost the image of Russian military.
2. Pushing the #walkaway meme, to try to convince nervous democrats that actually opposing Trump will result in turning off those mythical "swing" voters.
3. Memejacking the #mondaymotivation hashtag to try to insert Russian propaganda and disinformation into what seem to be tame conversations.
4. All over the resignation of Boris Johnson, and pushing divisive memes around Brexit, to sow more dissension, and weaken the NATO alliance.
5. More disinformation about the use of the Novichok nerve agent to poison Sergei Skripal - and the associated poisoning of more innocent Brits this past weekend. Blamed, of course, on a "false flag" campaign of self-poisoning by the Queen of England to something something IT'S ALL FAKE!
Laugh if you dare, but I guarantee you that by the end of the week, Trump will be mindlessly repeating whatever the Russians and Putin are promoting because treason.
On YouTube, out of 12 most-watched videos on the Skripal case from the past month, nine spread pro-Kremlin narratives and five came directly from RT.
The second most-watched video was published by RT and featured Yulia Skripal's first media appearance since the poisoning. It is important to note that this particular video was not overly biased, nor misinforming. The second most popular RT video, however, was not as objective. It was a German translation of a clip from RT's English language service, in which the anchor suggested that a BBC documentary on the Skripal case points to several inconsistencies. It went on to suggest the Skripals could have overdosed on opioids, which is a popular "theory" among Kremlin-funded media outlets.
Three out of four videos that came from non-RT channels, were all published by talkRADIO, a British radio station that frequently hosts George Galloway, an RT contributor and op-ed writer. This shows how RT's mouthpieces can launder pro-Kremlin narratives into the British mainstream media. Among the theories peddled by Galloway were suggestions that the British government used the royal wedding to cover Skripal's hospital release.


Spaniard Alvaro Quiros fires a hole-in-one to win the Dubai Desert Classic as Tiger Woods finishes a lowly 20th.
Spain's Alvaro Quiros produced an unusual final round to capture golf's Dubai Desert Classic on Sunday as Tiger Woods' bid to win his first tournament in 15 months collapsed.
The 27-year-old Quiros had a hole-in-one, chipped in for an eagle and also lost a ball up a palm tree in a final-round 68 to win by a stroke at 11 under par.
Denmark's Anders Hansen, needing to birdie the last hole to deny Quiros, posted a 70 to end with a 10-under-par tally.
Woods is still seeking his first tournament trophy in more than a year after falling well short with a final round 3-over 75 and ending tied for 20th with a total of 4-under 284.
On a day when the leaderboard constantly changed, the 70th-ranked Quiros shot 68 to end with a total of 11-under 277.
Quiros had an eagle on the second hole to move into the lead before a triple bogey on the eighth left him tied with Hansen who briefly took the lead soon after.
Quiros responded with a birdie on the ninth and then a hole-in-one on the par-3 No. 11 to get back into the lead. He fell back again with a bogey on the 14th but a birdie on the 16th gave him the lead for good.
Hansen briefly took the lead with an eagle on No. 13 but gave it up with a bogey on the 15th, finishing the round on 2-under 70.
James Kingston of South Africa was also second with a final round 67.
Coming into the final round a shot off the lead, Tiger Woods had two early bogeys on the second and third holes due to bad putting and chipping.
Woods managed to claw a shot back when his approach shot on the 6th ended up a few feet from the pin. However, Woods alternated two birdies with two bogeys on the back nine and then double bogeyed the 18th.
"It was a very frustrating day," Woods said.
"But I got off to such a poor start, to be two-over through three holes and I just couldn't make it up from there.
"When it was calm this week, I hit the ball pure, and that's the thing. When the wind blows, I have to shape shots and hit shots differently and all of my old feels are kind of out the window.
"That's the thing about making changes, As I've said, I've been all through this before with my last two instructors, and it will come around. I just need more work and more practice."
Woods, who won in Dubai in 2006 and 2008, is now in the middle of his longest drought without a victory. His last victory came at the Australian Masters in November 2009.


Computer hacks affect thousands of computer users and businesses every year. But as the top ten most vulnerable places in the US have been revealed, Data Memory Systems, one of the leading suppliers of commuter memory and accessories, has urged computer users to take extra care when visiting these hotpots.
The newly-released research, carried out by internet security firm, Webroot, analyzed its threat intelligence platform data from 2016, as well as other services, in order to create a list of the top 10 malware hit cities. And surprisingly, it isn't the biggest cities that computer users need to look out for. Houston, Chicago and Phoenix came out on top, with more than 150,000 affected devices between them last year. And according to the computer experts, this has drilled home just how important it is to protect personal devices at all times.
New York City, which is the US' most populous city, doesn't appear in the top 10, coming in at number 13 on the list. Los Angeles, which is America's second most populated city, does however feature on the list – at number six – below Denver, San Antonio and Dallas, respectively. Bringing the top 10 to a close are Las Vegas, Minneapolis and Charlotte.
Although this underlines just how at risk computer owners are when at home and out and about, there are steps they can take to protect their machines and devices, according to the computer experts.
Free public Wi-Fi for instance may be a god-send to holidaymakers and those who remote work on the go, but bad actors design networks that look like they provide free internet access. But reality thieves use these networks to intercept personal data. When it comes to personal security, strong passwords should always be used, while two-factor authentication is also advised when this is possible. It's been reported that code-breaking programs can crack an eight-character password in 15 minutes, so getting passwords right at the beginning can save a lot of heartache further down the line. Lastly, the experts at DMS suggest making sure antivirus software is kept up to date in order to warn users and block and pending attacks.


In a small pan, heat over low heat the milk for a couple of minute until lukewarm. In the mean time in a large bowl, toss the flour, sugar, salt and cinnamon and mix well. Add the milk and mix vigorously until all the ingredients are well combined.
Melt the butter in the pan used to heat the milk over low heat, make sure not the over cook the butter. Add the butter to the batter and mix well, set aside and leave to stand for a couple of minutes.
Heat a frying pan, butter the pan so the pancakes won't stick. Holding onto the handle of the pan, remove it from the heat pour the equivalent of 3/4 of a ladle of batter in the middle and swirl the pan so that the batter coats the bottom of the pan. Return the pan the heat and cook for a couple of minutes. With the help of a flat wooden spoon or non metal spatula loosen the crêpe from the pan, flip over the crêpe and if necessary use your fingers to do so. After the crêpe has finished cooking, gently slide it out onto a plate. Repeat until you finish the batter, make sure to butter the pan between each crêpe.


Jesus Echavarria's new project is a dual USB-to-UART/I2C serial interface board using two MCP2221 chips. This board can be used for debugging UART TX and RX lines as well as providing an USB connectivity in applications that have UART and I2C interfaces. With the help of Microchip's free PC utilities, you can customize the MCP2221 identifiers and GPIO pins as well as directly communicate with any UART and I2C devices from its GUI interface for rapid prototyping with those devices.
MCP221 USB/Serial bridge (A): the basic connection for the MCP2221 converter. It has a small R-C filter on USB lines and a Reset pushbutton. In addition to USB/Serial converter, MCP2221 also has the feature to convert from USB to I2C master device. So, you can connect I2C slaves to this device and communicate with they (check the SW point). For the I2C communications, I let two jumpers to enable/disable the I2C pull-up resistors. Finally, I use GP0,GP1 and GP3 signals as a led's indicators (low level active, default configuration). So GP0 lights when it receives a data over the serial port (red led). GP1 lights when transmit a data over the serial port (yellow led). And GP3 lights when there's communication on the I2C port (green led).

Q: AppEngine DataStore - GQL not returning any results $query = "SELECT * FROM Name";

works perfectly as expected but:
$query = "SELECT * FROM Name WHERE name = 'david'";

doesn't work as expected. The DataStore is created as follows:
$obj_name = new Entity();
$obj_name->name = strtolower($name);
$obj_name->age = $age;
$result = $obj_name_store->upsert($obj_name);

Any suggestions for how to extract a specific item using GQL?
Thank you.

A: It looks like you are using my php-gds library from here: https://github.com/tomwalder/php-gds
If so, then the problem is likely that you have not explicity requested the "name" property be indexed by Datastore.
When defining your Schema, you need to pass the optional second parameter "TRUE" in order for queries to work against those fields.
See here for a code example.
