We are trying to setup a company account for bitbucket (not a personal account) and link it to our Atlassian instance we have. We are unable to do it now. We want to use the same to migrate off of SVN to bitbucket. Any help will be awesome.
The initial process can be confusing. Mainly because the email addresses between OnDemand and Bitbucket need to match but usernames/passwords are not shared in the same database.
In other words, your username in OnDemand might be jay in but if you wanted to use that for Bitbucket, chances are jay will be already taken since Bitbucket is a public facing site. A common approach when that happens is to use your email address as your username.

Unaccompanied Minors and Their Harrowing Journey to Safety
The impeachment trial of President Trump begins with solemn ceremony in the Senate, as new evidence appears.

At 15 years old, Javier Sandoval's* mom told him it was time to leave his home in El Salvador for the U.S. She said he was now old enough to carry a gun and she was worried it was only days before local gang members would forcibly recruit him into their ranks.
Leaving behind his mom and siblings, Sandoval headed to the US-Mexico border on foot and crammed into vehicles with other migrants fleeing the violence and poverty of El Salvador.
It took Sandoval 15 days to reach the Rio Grande, which kept him a short distance from U.S. soil. "To cross, we had to go with 10 other people on a boat that looked like it could hold only one person," said Sandoval in Spanish.
Once he reached U.S. soil, Sandoval was instructed to go to the top of a hill and wait for Border Patrol officers to find him and take him into custody. "I remember people saying that the officers would come get us and take us somewhere nice and that we wouldn't need anything. We would have everything we needed," said Sandoval.

He wasn't prepared for what he faced once in the custody of U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Sandoval said he was taken to an overcrowded detention center in Texas, where he would be held for 10 days, surpassing the maximum 72 hours minors are to be held in detention before being transferred to the custody of the Health and Human Services, Office of Refugee Resettlement, who places unaccompanied minors in a shelter while family members are located to take them in.
"When I got there, it was so crowded. I was looking around and thinking, where am I going to sleep? There was a lot of kids standing, taking turns to lay down and go to sleep," said Sandoval. "As they were booking me, the officers said 'Welcome, this is your new home'. And when they said that, I got a really bad feeling."
He said there were no private restrooms and they were not allowed to shower or go outdoors.
"We wanted to see the sun because the lights were on inside all the time. They would wake us up all the time, they wouldn't let us sleep," said Sandoval. "I wanted to cry. I thought, 'God why am I here. Why did I come?'"
In 2014, Sandoval was one of nearly 70,000 unaccompanied minors who traveled to the U.S. without a parent or guardian to escape the widespread violence in El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras. The region of Central America, known as the Northern Triangle, has been left with a legacy of violence, lack of economic opportunity and weak institutions following the CIA-backed coups and ensuing bloody civil wars that rocked the region in the 80s.
The ongoing migration has brought an additional 40,000 unaccompanied minors into the U.S. every year since 2014, who have faced harrowing journeys fraught with violence and danger. Many have been victims of sexual assault, robbery, forced labor and lengthy periods of time without food or water.

For Sandoval, arriving in the U.S. to be held in an overcrowded detention center was just one of numerous traumatic experiences throughout his journey and it wasn't until he was enrolled in a high school in the Los Angeles Unified School District, that he was referred to see a mental health specialist at one of the district's many Wellness Centers.
Like many unaccompanied minors that have faced similar circumstances, Sandoval was suffering from depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. Mental health organizations were unprepared for the influx of unaccompanied minors, but to ensure the 6,800 unaccompanied minors resettled in Los Angeles County since 2014 received proper care, nonprofit legal services organizations partnered with mental health organizations to refer children to mental health providers.
"As part of when we first started talking to these children for their cases, a lot of them were so traumatized that we found we really needed to integrate a psychological evaluation before we could even start talking to them about their stories," said Teresa Borden, a spokesperson for the Central American Resource Center (CARECEN), that provides pro bono legal assistance to unaccompanied minors.
CARECEN, along with Esperanza Immigrants Rights Project and Public Counsel, partnered with nonprofit mental health services organizations, including Amanecer Community Counseling and St. John's Well Child and Family Center, to refer children to mental health providers before forming their cases.
Many unaccompanied minors qualify for Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJS) which gives children under the age of 21 a green card if they can prove in court that it is not in their best interest to return to their country.
St. John's therapists do assessments for unaccompanied minors represented by CARECEN by documenting the child's history of trauma, research of the country and the abuse - socially and familial - to show in court that if child returns to their country, it could lead to suicide or the debilitation of their mental state. Raza said the screenings they've conducted have determined most all the unaccompanied minors were in need of mental health services.
"Going into therapy is helpful because it helps them to first tell their story which helps us figure out what their asylum claim is, but it also helps in their grueling 2 to 3 hour interview with an asylum officer that is going to ask them about every detail of the harm that they've faced," said Arisa Raza, a staff attorney with the unaccompanied minors department at CARECEN.
Undocumented children have always been eligible for services through the Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health, but in response to the crisis of 2014, the Department of Mental Health created the Unaccompanied Minor's Program, said Rebeca Hurtado, mental health clinical supervisor with the Department of Mental Health.
In October 2015, the Department of Mental Health leveraged $1.7 million of Mental Health Services Act dollars to fund 13 different agencies throughout the county to provide mental health services free of charge to unaccompanied minors through June 2017.
Through the Unaccompanied Minors Program, the agencies, including the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) and Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services, have provided services to more than 100 unaccompanied minors since the program started in October 2015.
LAUSD offers physical and mental health screenings to immigrant and refugee students that enroll through the district's School Enrollment and Placement Assessment Center and refers students for mental health services at one of 14 wellness centers and 8 mental health clinics.

"We know that mental health is keenly tied to the whole child and mental health could affect their schooling because they may have behavior where they're distracted or checked out and may not take full opportunity of their academic grasp," said Pia Escudero, director of LAUSD's School Mental Health. "Early intervention is key, so as soon as we see symptoms, we connect students to resources."
Sandoval is a sophomore at a high school in South Los Angeles where he participates in individual and group therapy sessions at a Wellness Center located on the school's campus.
"Before the therapy, I felt alone, I didn't have any friends because I kept thinking about my family. I would isolate myself [...] But now, I have met more people and it has helped me a lot to come to the meetings and share with everybody else," said Sandoval.
Sandoval has made friends from El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala that he met through the group therapy sessions that are used throughout LAUSD to help unaccompanied minors meet one another and share their experiences in a safe space.
"I saw things I've never seen, I did things I've never done [...] and here we can discuss our different traumas, whatever is said there stays there. It has been very valuable for me because it has helped me to overcome things that I have lived through," said Sandoval.
Adjusting to life in the U.S.
Sandoval said it has been difficult to adjust to life in the United States. He needed to get accustomed to life in a new home and a new school, but his biggest challenge he said has been learning English.
For unaccompanied minors, this period of adjustment could be drawn out and difficult and could prevent children from realizing their need for mental health services.
"Many kids try to deal with adjustment first, then the trauma later," said Elena Fernandez, behavioral health director at St. John's Well Child and Family Center, that started it's Nuestra Promesa Program in 2014 to provide mental health services to unaccompanied minors.

Sandoval is now living with family members, that prior to coming, he hadn't seen since he was a small child. "It's not the same living with family that you know, but you've never lived with before. It's hard," said Sandoval.
Adjusting to life in a new home doesn't go as smoothly for some children and problems between them and their sponsors can lead to them being transferred into the custody of the Department of Child and Family Services. In 2015, more than 30 unaccompanied minors were put in the custody of the Department of Child and Family Services.
"Sometimes the sponsor or relative doesn't anticipate that the child will have mental health issues or behavioral problems. In some of those cases, the sponsors call us and say they no longer want to care for the minor," said Cecilia Saco, supervising children's social worker at the Department of Child and Family Services.
The Office of Refugee Resettlement is required to provide post-release services in cases in which a home study was conducted prior to an unaccompanied minor's release to a sponsor or in cases in which children have mental health needs. The services include assistance to ensure the sponsor provides a safe environment, as well as assistance accessing legal, medical, mental health, and educational services, and initiating steps to establish guardianship.
According to a recent report by the Government Accountability Office, a relatively small percentage of unaccompanied minors received post-release services and the responsibility of the Office of Refugee Resettlement for most children typically ended once custody was transferred to their sponsors. According to the report, the Office of Refugee Resettlement recently expanded post-release services to children released to non-relative or distant relative sponsors.
"Sometimes the assessment of the home by the Office of Refugee Resettlement is done so quickly that they miss certain things. In some cases, these children don't know their relatives or there's issues when children are reunited with their parent after a long period of time. These issues can cause problems and the Office of Refugee Resettlement doesn't monitor the stabilization of the cases," said Saco.
To help with the adjustment process, St. John's Nuestra Promesa Program and Didi Hirsch offer family counseling and support groups for sponsors who are having problems with the children.
"We try to include the whole family in the treatment because it's not just the child. It usually affects the families and home environment," said Oscar Gonzalez, program director of Didi Hirsch Metro's Unaccompanied Minor Program.
Some may still be left without care
In May, more than 170,000 undocumented children became eligible for full-scope Medi-Cal when Senate Bill 75 took effect. Although eligible undocumented children can now receive mental health services, Gonzalez believes that many will still be hesitant to reach out for help.
"Based in experience of working with the [undocumented] population, they are hesitant in asking for help for various reasons. We've heard from people that they are worried they will be deported or that if they access a public service, it will affect their immigration case and they may not be eligible for residency," said Gonzalez.
When Didi Hirsch's Unaccompanied Minors Program started in 2015, Gonzalez said it was a challenge to get clients to access services through the program.
"It's taken a lot of outreach and we've been trying to develop partnerships with schools, legal providers and the Department of Child and Family Services to get clients. We've been trying to do everything we can to get the word out there and we are starting to see the fruits of our labor," said Gonzalez.
The stigma surrounding mental illness in the Latino community has also proved to be an obstacle, said Gonzalez. But having children access services in order to form their asylum cases has helped break through the stigma. Gonzalez said many children have remained in therapy even after their cases are settled.
"The issue is convincing them that this is good for them because the stigma holds some people back. But on the legal side, we frame it as beneficial to their case and that opens up an opportunity for them to get therapy and healing," said Raza.
Addressing other needs
Nuestra Promesa has 4 case managers whose job is to advocate for unaccompanied minors and get them enrolled in school, get them proper health care and proper placement in school.
"I would say these kids need two things - therapy for all the trauma they've experienced and someone to help them access resources because a lot of them come in with basic needs, like housing, food, clothing and legal resources," said Gonzalez.
The need to expand services outside of L.A. County has been echoed by many working with this population.
"Sometimes they come from the Inland Empire or Ventura County and it's been a challenge finding mental health services organizations to refer them to outside of the county because there is no organizations out there or very few," said Raza.
Following a difficult adjustment period, Sandoval said he likes going to school now. "I have friends here, they have become like family," said Sandoval.
"We find that these kids and these families are so resilient. They go through so much just looking for a better future and despite all the things that happen, they always come above it," said Gonzalez. "Sometimes the therapy process helps instill the hope in them that things will get better," said Oscar Gonzalez.
Sandoval said he misses his family, but he speaks to his mom over the phone often. "I want to study hard and get a career and one day be a journalist," said Sandoval. "Eventually I want to go back to El Salvador and see my mom."

IFF Deploys Industry-First On-Site Wind Turbine at Tilburg, Netherlands Facility
TILBURG, Netherlands--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun. 6, 2016-- International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. (NYSE:IFF) (Euronext Paris:IFF), a leading innovator of sensory experiences that move the world, today is launching the flavor and fragrance industry's first-ever on-site wind turbine at its Tilburg, Netherlands manufacturing facility.
"Our new on-site wind turbine at our Tilburg facility is a big step for us in our exciting journey to lead positive transformational changes as we realize our Vision 2020 business strategy," said Andreas Fibig, Chairman and CEO of IFF. "I am proud of the efforts our global teams are making on sustainability initiatives such as this wind turbine because not only does being environmentally responsive make good business sense, it is also my belief that as industry leaders, we have an unyielding commitment to the Earth."
The turbine, which has an output of 2.4 megawatts, will produce approximately 6.5 million kWh of renewable electricity per year – the clean energy equivalent of what is needed to power 1,860 households. It is estimated to provide up to 30 percent of the site's electricity needs, and when combined with purchased green electricity the facility will be powered by 100 percent renewable electricity.
"We are thrilled to launch our first wind turbine," said Kip Cleverley, Director, Global Sustainability for IFF. "Our team in Tilburg has been instrumental in driving this project forward and their efforts show how local implementation is essential to our global sustainability performance. This project truly embodies a main aspect of our sustainability strategy, Positive Principles, in which we strive to embed the principles of eliminating the concept of waste and using clean renewable energy into our company and culture."
In 2015, IFF formally reaffirmed its commitment to renewable energy with its support of RE100, a collaborative, global initiative of influential businesses committed to 100% renewable electricity. And with the launch of its 2015 sustainability report last week, IFF also celebrated year-over-year company-wide reductions in energy use, water use and greenhouse gas emission intensities. We are also pleased to announce that IFF was just listed on the 2016 Newsweek Green Rankings, one of the world's foremost corporate environmental rankings.
The philosophical keystone of IFF's sustainability strategy is the concept of the circular economy. A circular economy, in contrast to a linear "take-make-dispose" economy, is one that is restorative and regenerative by design. This concept is a driver of sustainable innovation of products, business models, companies and economies.
"Innovation comes not just from what you make, but how you make it," said Nicolas Mirzayantz, Group President, Fragrances, and Executive Sustainability Sponsor. "Following our launch of the largest solar array in the industry, this turbine is another demonstration of how we always strive for what is best for our company and the planet. The turbine will serve as a pillar of inspiration and pride for IFF employees in Tilburg – and around the world."

Memmelsdorf is a community in the Upper Franconian district of Bamberg bordering in the west directly on the city of Bamberg.

History
As with most places in the Bamberg district, this community's exact founding time cannot be established. However, looking back through the properties of the royal chamber estate in Memmelsdorf yields a founding time sometime about 900. Since there were no local monasteries at that time, there is today a lack of historical accounts about settlement here.

About 1120, evidence crops up of Mam's, Mamo's or Memo's village (Dorf in German). A Frank by the name of Mamo is the namesake of Memenstorf, Memistorf, Mamestorf or Mamenestorf – the place now known as Memmelsdorf. From road names that have been handed down it is assumed that this founding, lying between two brooks, safeguarded old traffic routes.

 900 Founding of the royal chamber estate
 1120 Founding of Mamo's village
 1248 Founding of Memmelsdorf lower court district

Memmelsdorf belonged to the High Monastery at Bamberg and was the seat of a princely Vogt (reeve). Since the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss of 1803, the community has belonged to Bavaria. In the course of administrative reform in Bavaria, today's community came into being under the Gemeindeedikt ("Community Edict") of 1818.

Population development

Constituent communities
Until 1953, the community of Memmelsdorf consisted only of the centre named Memmelsdorf and the nearby Schloss Seehof (castle).

Great changes came to the community through administrative reform. Since the voluntary merger with five formerly autonomous communities in 1972, the community of Memmelsdorf has consisted of the following centres, each given here with its own population figure:
 Drosendorf 1,374
 Kremmeldorf 253
 Laubend 144
 Lichteneiche 2,171This centre was founded after the Second World War to house those driven out of formerly German lands east of the Oder and Neiße. The first dwellers moved into their new homes in 1954. Lichteneiche quickly developed into a typical suburban neighbourhood. Important institutions are the home for the elderly, the gliderport and the Sport-Club Lichteneiche (founded in 1955).

Religion
Memmelsdorf is the seat of the Catholic parish of Maria Himmelfahrt, whose area includes Memmelsdorf and the outlying centres of Drosendorf, Kremmeldorf, Meedensdorf, Schloss Seehof, Schmerldorf and Weichendorf. Since 1974, the parish priest has been Lothar Güthlein. Working with him since September 2006 has been the Pastoralreferent Andreas Lößlein. (A Pastoralreferent is roughly a "lay pastor" who assists a clergyman; this is a profession only found in German-speaking Europe and the Netherlands).

Until 1978, the outlying centre of Kremmeldorf partly belonged to the parish of Peulendorf.

Within the municipal area there is also the Catholic parish of Kreuzerhöhung ("Triumph of the Cross") Merkendorf, within whose area is found the outlying centre of Laubend.

Lichteneiche originally belonged to the Memmelsdorf parish, but is now a Memmelsdorf branch parish.

At Whitsun 2006, the Catholic Seelsorgeeinheit ("parish cluster") Pfarreiengemeinschaft Memmelsdorf mit Lichteneiche, Gundelsheim und Merkendorf was founded. The head priest is Father Marianus Schramm from the parish of Gundelsheim.

Lichteneiche is the seat of the Evangelical parish of Christi Himmelfahrt.

Politics

Community council

Coat of arms
If Memmelsdorf had its own seal at the time when it belonged to the High Monastery at Bamberg, nothing is now known of it. Only in the time of the Kingdom of Bavaria did the municipal administration bear the then customary service seal. On 5 December 1963, the Bavarian State Ministry of the Interior gave its approval for the community to bear a coat of arms. At the same time, the Ministry also gave its approval for the community to bear a flag. It shows three stripes coloured black, yellow and green, and may be borne with the arms. The Upper Franconian government approved on 1 July 1973 the community council's decision on 30 January 1973 to make the coat of arms valid for the whole, newly expanded community.

Memmelsdorf's arms might heraldically be described thus: Party per pale Or and argent, Or a Zentrichter (roughly "lower court judge") with cloak and hat sable holding in the hand dexter a staff argent and in the sinister a book Or, vert emerging from a three knolled hill vert an oaktree with acorns Or.

Culture and sightseeing

Buildings

 Pfarrkirche Mariä Himmelfahrt
 Schloss Seehof was the Bamberg Prince-Bishops' former summer residence and hunting lodge

Sport
The club Sportverein 1923 e. V. offers many departments. From football to bowling, chess and baseball, every sportsman and sportswoman can follow his or her interests. Over the last few years, various teams from one department or another have made their way into the national leagues, with the first team from the baseball department even reaching the Second Bundesliga.

A yearly sporting high point is the Quattroball-Turnier staged by SC Memmelsdorf 1997 e. V. To this meet come up to 400 players in about 100 teams from all over Germany to play the champions in the four different disciplines, volleyball, basketball, handball and soccer fussball. The crush of competitors at this tournament is so great that for some years now, participants have had to have their names drawn by lottery to make it onto the contest list. The winner of Quattroball-Turnier 2008 is named Funky Fresh Crew. In the finals of the tournament they lost only one point in soccer against Hamsteraggregat. As the most valuable Player of the tournament was named Helmut Weiss.

Clubs
Memmelsdorf is also well known for its successful carnival club Memmelsdorfer Carnevals Club (MCC). The yearly Prunksitzungen ("revues") in the Seehofhalle Memmelsdorf are known and loved Bavaria-wide. The MCC is the main participant in the Shrovetide (Fasching) parades in Memmelsdorf and in the city of Bamberg.

Economy and infrastructure

Economy
Most working people are employed at large firms in Bamberg (Bosch, Wieland Electric) or at Michelin in Hallstadt (5 km). Business life in Memmelsdorf is based on many small businesses, which keep the local community supplied with its needs.

Major firms in the community are found mainly in the building industry. The biggest employer, with roughly 150 workers, is Firma Fösel.

Breweries

There are 5 breweries:
 Drei Kronen (Forster) in Memmelsdorf
 Höhn (zum Mondschein) in Memmelsdorf
 Göller in Drosendorf
 Hummel (Drei Kronen) in Merkendorf
 Wagner in Merkendorf

In Memmelsdorf there was once the Brauerei zum (rotten) Ochsen (Nüßlein), whose building now houses a branch of the Sparkasse Bamberg (savings bank). Also, until the 1990s there was the Brauerei Leicht (the so-called Ottn Wirt, recalling the landlord's ["Wirt" in German] endowment of the figure of Saint Otto on the church wall; nowadays only run as an inn).

In Drosendorf until the 1970s there was the Brauerei zur Krone (Nüßlein).

In Kremmeldorf there was the Brauerei Zeiß (formerly Einwich), which is nowadays only run as an inn, as is the former Brauerei Dillig in Laubend.

Transport
The community of Memmelsdorf lies six kilometres east of the city of Bamberg on Staatsstraße 2190. The community can be reached by the Autobahnen A 70 (Maintalautobahn Schweinfurt-Bayreuth) and A 73 (Frankenschnellweg Nürnberg–Bamberg). East of the A 70/A 73 cloverleaf interchange (Bamberger Kreuz) is the Bamberg-Memmelsdorf exit, right at which lies the centre of Lichteneiche. From there it is two kilometres to Memmelsdorf.

All the community's centres are linked by the Bamberg city bus network.

Public institutions
In the community is found a home for the elderly offering roughly 50 senior citizens a place. In the 1980s, the Seehofhalle, a multipurpose hall in which sporting and cultural events take place, was built.

The Memmelsdorf municipal library has for many years been borne by the Catholic parish church foundation and the municipality, and been in the care of the Sankt Michaelsbund (a Bavarian Catholic media outlet), Landesverband Bayern e. V. (one of the two organizations between which it is divided). In 2005, about 1,000 users had access to more than 12,000 books, from among which there were roughly 32,000 loans. Another likewise successful library is found in Lichteneiche. Both libraries logged all together about 15,000 visits in 2005.

Q: Importing and Tidying from Terrible Excel Spreadsheet in R First, see this url for a small example of the type of data I am formatting.  You'll note I have highlighted two areas in the worksheet that I am trying to select.  The selection range needs to be dynamic as projects move in and out of the datasets.  For the first part, I think this code will suffice:
library(tidyverse)
library(readxl)

filename <- "MyDataset.xlsx"

#obtain first section of my excel spreadsheet
project_codes <- read_excel(
  path = filename,
  sheet = "Jan18",
  range = "A10:B1000",
  col_names = c("proj_num", "name")
) %>%
  drop_na() %>%
  filter(grepl("-", project_codes$proj_num))

The second section is where I am getting tripped up...  I want to ensure that I have selected the exact same subset of rows as my 'project_codes' in the other highlighted area of the spreadsheet.
I have many worksheets formatted in this exact same way (and naming convention is consistent - Jan18, Feb18, Mar18), so bonus points if someone can assist me in iterating through the worksheets after solving part 1.

A: library(tidyverse)
library(readxl)

filename <- "MyDataset.xlsx"

excel_sheets(filename) %>%
  set_names() %>%
  map_df(~ read_excel(
  path = filename,
  sheet = .,
  range = "A6:N1000"
) %>%
  filter(str_detect(`#`, "-")) %>%
  select(`#`, `PROJECT NAME`, `Status`, `Cumulative Billings`, `Billing Adjustment`, `Contract Value`), .id = "Month")

# A tibble: 8 x 7
  Month `#`       `PROJECT NAME` Status `Cumulative Billings` `Billing Adjustment` `Contract Value`
  <chr> <chr>     <chr>           <dbl>                 <dbl>                <dbl>            <dbl>

map_df() will iterate through each sheet (whose names are extracted using excel_sheets()) and create one data frame with a column indicating which sheet the data comes from.
I had to rely on this answer to apply the name of the sheet as its own column.

Statement On The End Of The In Re South African Apartheid Litigation
Last week, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear a major corporate accountability case, Ntsebeza, et al., v. Ford Motor Co., et al., that represented the last opportunity for South Africans to achieve justice in U.S. courts for apartheid-era crimes. The U.S. corporations – Ford and IBM – were alleged to have purposefully facilitated violations of international law by enabling the denationalization and violent suppression, including extrajudicial killings, of black South Africans living under the apartheid regime. What began fourteen years ago as litigation against dozens of multinational corporations has effectively ended without ever even entering discovery.
We are deeply disappointed for our clients and the communities who suffered as a direct result of corporate complicity in violence and oppression. We are also extremely concerned about the reluctance of U.S. courts to take on powerful corporate actors that have involved themselves in human rights abuses abroad. Continue Reading…
Losing Control: The Dangers of Killer Robots
Posted by Bonnie Docherty
This piece originally appeared in The Conversation on June 16, 2016
New technology could lead humans to relinquish control over decisions to use lethal force. As artificial intelligence advances, the possibility that machines could independently select and fire on targets is fast approaching. Fully autonomous weapons, also known as "killer robots," are quickly moving from the realm of science fiction toward reality.
These weapons, which could operate on land, in the air or at sea, threaten to revolutionize armed conflict and law enforcement in alarming ways. Proponents say these killer robots are necessary because modern combat moves so quickly, and because having robots do the fighting would keep soldiers and police officers out of harm's way. But the threats to humanity would outweigh any military or law enforcement benefits.
Removing humans from the targeting decision would create a dangerous world. Machines would make life-and-death determinations outside of human control. The risk of disproportionate harm or erroneous targeting of civilians would increase. No person could be held responsible. Continue Reading…
Case Against Former Bolivian President for Role in 2003 Massacre Cleared to Move Forward
Human Rights Case Against Former Bolivian President for Role in 2003 Massacre Cleared to Move Forward
Court of Appeals Rejects Defendants' Attempt to Have Case Dismissed
Miami, FL –More than 12 years after government-planned massacres in Bolivia killed 58 unarmed civilians, the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals yesterday rejected an effort to scuttle a lawsuit against the former President of Bolivia and his Minister of Defense, both of whom are currently living in the United States. Instead, the appellate court sent the case back to the district court with a mandate to proceed to discovery.
In Mamani v. Sánchez de Lozada and Sánchez Berzain, the families of eight Bolivians killed in the massacres filed suit against the former Bolivian president, Gonzalo Sánchez de Lozada, and his former Bolivian defense minister, José Carlos Sánchez Berzaín, charging they ordered extrajudicial killings. The lawsuit alleges that, months in advance of the violence, the two defendants devised a plan to kill thousands of civilians, and that they intentionally used deadly force against political protests in an effort to quash political opposition. In addition to the deaths, more than 400 civilians were injured when security forces fired on unarmed civilians.
In today's unanimous decision, the appeals court held that a federal statute, the Torture Victim Protection Act (TVPA), permits plaintiffs to sue in U.S. court for extrajudicial killing after they have exhausted the remedies available in their home country. Continue Reading…

In re South African Apartheid Litigation,


As a pet owner, I can safely say that I greatly panic when my dog falls sick or gets hurt. The simple fact that they can't speak out loud about their distress causes us to sometimes overreact, and it's natural. Humans can express what's happening to them and we still need doctors to cure us. So pets rightly need the alert treatment and a thorough watch throughout their recovery.
Enter our angels, our city's veterinary doctors. In a way, our entire sense of happiness and hope rests on them because they take care of the most important family member. They're not credited enough so let me thank them first in this article, they're doing a fantastic service to all of us. Kudos!
Now some of our pets need medical attention with the utmost urgency. Especially old pets with whom we can't commute, and in their times of need, they need medically-trained assistance. Some wonderful vets in our city make house visits and through this article, I'd like to bring their contact details to your attention. They will visit your place, treat your furry family member and soothe some jittery nerves.
Most of the vets listed in this article have full-fledged clinical and surgical setups. They do home visits but it's either before OPD time or hours when their clinics are closed. If a pet parent calls during clinic timings and when there are patients / surgeries going on (or other emergencies), it's difficult for them to make house calls at the same time. And this can be disappointing for the parent, leading to further misunderstandings.
These vets do home calls, but within certain timings. They are always there for emergencies during the night with cell phones ON for 24 hours.
Hope you understand what they intend to convey for the health and happiness of our beloved Pets.
This message was sent to the Editor by one of the vets mentioned in this list. Thank you!


Please go well. Go and find all that God has in store for you. Explore and discover all of the gifts and talents He has so freely given you. Seek joy and wisdom and gladness of heart. Find friends who edify you, support you, extol the virtues and want you to be the best you.
There will be days when you forget your value, when you make mistakes and wish that "thing" never happened. It's OKAY. Turn your face back to Him and remember that you are loved with an all consuming, take-your-breath-away love that covers over and smooths away all the mistakes.
Tell all your friends to be super duper kind to their moms the next few weeks. For you all, it's the beginning of a brand new adventure, for us it's the end of a very long sweet chapter.

Ice cream shop with sexy cow logo shuts; owner blames 'extremist radical liberals'
Julia Martin
Dairy Air, a Montclair ice cream shop that opened a year ago to a firestorm about its "sexualized" logo, has closed, and its owner is blaming "extremist radical liberals" for his business's demise.
Owner Anthony Tortoriello had harsh words for the locals who called the cow's-rump logo "offensive and sickening" and hosted a community meeting about the matter.
"They were on a crusade to destroy my business and my life," said Tortoriello, who added that he is fed up and retiring from business. "I was totally berated and accused of being a woman-hater. It was nonstop harassment; it never ended."
The uproar was set in motion last year by Amy Tingle and Maya Stein, owners of Creativity Caravan, a Montclair "studio, gallery and imaginarium," according to their website.
"A hypersexualized cow with her ass upended and poking through a circle, tail raised up, waiting for what? I'm not sure, but I do know that I am repulsed and offended," Tingle said last December. "This kind of marketing scheme is the reason we currently have a sexual predator in the White House."
The story quickly became a cause célèbre in Montclair, a liberal bastion that former Gov. Chris Christie famously dubbed the "People's Republic of Montclair," and was debated on social media and covered by news outlets across the country.
The logo that caused the ruckus — a cow with blonde pigtails, a beret and a tattoo on its bare, upturned rump — was never changed, despite Tortoriello's stated intention to alter it in the wake of the uproar. Tortoriello defended the logo in a December 2017 press release, saying, "We simply created a fun illustration to complement our fun name," while saying he neverthelss was working on a new logo.
However, Tortoriello told NorthJersey.com and the USA TODAY NETWORK New Jersey on Monday, he made a "business decision" not to change the logo after all.
"Rebranding would have cost over $15,000, not including everything that had been printed with the logo, which would have to go in the garbage," he said. "Even on principle, do I want to spend $25,000 of my own money on that?"
The building's landlord, Joe Wang, was at the store Sunday evening meeting with prospective tenants. He attributed the closing of Dairy Air to its business hours, pointing to a sign that showed it was open only Thursday through Sunday every week. "They couldn't pay the rent with their limited hours," he said.
Tingle, who declined to "resurrect the controversy or address any grievances that arose because of it," did suggest in a statement that Dairy Air's closing likely had more to do with high overhead than the dust-up over the logo.
"As a business owner whose brick-and-mortar is also closing at the end of this month, I can attest that it is extremely hard to manage the high rents and costs associated with owning any small business in New Jersey," she wrote.
Tingle added that she works as a volunteer advocate with S.A.V.E. of Essex County, accompanying sexual assault survivors to hospitals and police stations, and that she "worked really hard to stay focused on what I could do personally to make a positive difference in our community."
Tortoriello, who sold his stake in Frank Anthony's restaurant in Verona to open Dairy Air, said he has no plans other than to spend more time with his wife and two high-school-age daughters.
"I'm retiring. That's it. I'm done," he said.

He said the harassment over the logo persisted even after the media focus abated. "People would walk in and see the logo and it would start up again, not to mention the letters and emails," Tortoriello said. "People would come into the shop and impose their opinions on my staff, in their face."
He said his daughters were "embarrassed" to go to school. "It's not fair for a 15-year-old to get harassed by extremist radical liberal people."
"There's a cost of doing business, and sometimes it's just not worth it," he said.
