Vaya con Díos, Socio
By Jay Allen Sanford, April 6, 2006
Blurt Music News
Eighty-five-year-old Raúl "Socio" Crespo Villardel, founder of Mike's Bar in Tijuana, died on March 8 of natural causes. In the '60s, members of Vanilla Fudge, Love, and Spirit could be found hanging out with Carlos Santana and Jim Morrison at the Avenida Revolución rock club. (Morrison had a roped-off private table next to the ladies' room.) For awhile, there were two Mike's Bars on the same block.
A Cuban expatriate born in Havana, Villardel hosted Hispanic groups who mimicked British rockers. Jorge de la Torre of Los Dug Dug's, who in the spring of 1965 played Mike's every Sunday afternoon, says, "George Harrison and Ringo Starr came in to see us one day.... We were doing Beatles songs, and they were dancing with all the girls." The original Mike's burned down in 1968. The rebuilt Mike's is now a disco that hosts drag shows.

La ligne 30 est une ancienne ligne du tramway du Centre de la Société nationale des chemins de fer vicinaux (SNCV) qui reliait Anderlues à Strépy-Bracquegnies.

Histoire
1891 : mise en service entre Morlanwelz et Houdeng-Aimeries, traction vapeur.

1895 : prolongement de Morlanwelz vers Bracquegnies.

En , le tracé de la ligne pour la traversée du canal du Centre à Houdeng-Aimeries est modifié. Depuis son prolongement vers la gare de Bracquegnies en , la ligne arrive à la place d'Aimeries par la rue Léon Houtart puis emprunte le pont tournant pour traverser le canal vers la place du Souvenir d'où la ligne part en site indépendant vers Strépy-Bracquegnies. L'étroitesse du pont tournant provoquant des encombrements, le tramway est alors dévié par une nouvelle section qui depuis la place d'Aimeries rejoint en site indépendant l'avenue Semaille pour traverser le canal du Centre par le pont fixe de la rue Liébin avant de continuer sur cette même rue pour rejoindre la voie en site indépendant vers Strépy-Bracquegnies.

This paper proposes a novel method for appearance based vehicle detection by employing stereo vision system and radar units. In the vein of utilizing advanced driver assistance systems, detection and tracking of moving objects or particularly vehicles, represents an essential task. For the merits of such application, it has often been suggested to combine multiple sensors with complementary modalities. In accordance, in this work we utilize a stereo vision and two radar units, and fuse the corresponding modalities at the level of detection. Firstly, the algorithm executes the detection procedure based on stereo image solely, generating the information about vehicles' position. Secondly, the final unique list of vehicles is obtained by overlapping the radar readings with the preliminary list obtained by stereo system. The stereo vision–based detection procedure consists of (i) edge processing plugging in also the information about disparity map, (ii) shape based vehicles' contour extraction and (iii) preliminary vehicles' positions generation. Since the radar readings are examined by overlapping them with the list obtained by stereo vision, the proposed algorithm can be considered as high level fusion approach. We analyze the performance of the proposed algorithm by performing the real-world experiment in highly dynamic urban environment, under significant illumination influences caused by sunny weather.

Q: Flutter: Loop through all children of a widget I need to loop over my widget screen/page and edit my current widget by server results:
i am getting an list of objects like this:
{
  "states": [
    {
      "id": "1",
      "visible": true,
      "enable": false
    },
    {
      "id": "2",
      "visible": false,
      "enable": false
    }
  ]
}

Each id point of widget that contains KeyValue,
i need to search for wholes keys in my page/screen that match to my server id's than edit current widget with it properties.
i need to do it first time before build function called, so i created WidgetTree, that get screen widget as param(child) and loop over it in initState and recreate the new child(screen/page) with all the updates.
then build will call the new child.
My code:
class WidgetTree extends StatefulWidget {

  final Widget child;

  const WidgetTree({Key? key,required this.child}) : super(key: key);

  @override
  _WidgetTreeState createState() => _WidgetTreeState();
}

class _WidgetTreeState extends State<WidgetTree> {

  late Widget parent;

  @override
  void initState() {
    parent = widget.child;
    _widgetRecursion(null, parent);
    super.initState();
  }

  _widgetRecursion(Widget? parent,Widget? child){
    if(child == null) return;

    if(child is RegularButton){

      // child = Visibility(child: child,visible: false,); // not working i am losing refrence.
    }

    if(child is Scaffold){
      _widgetRecursion(child,child.body);
    }

    if(child is Container){
      _widgetRecursion(parent,child.child);
    }

    if(child is MultiChildRenderObjectWidget){
      child.children.forEach((subChild)=>_widgetRecursion(child,subChild));
    }

    if(child is SingleChildScrollView){
      _widgetRecursion(child,child.child);
    }
    if(child is SingleChildRenderObjectWidget){
      _widgetRecursion(child,child.child);
    }
    if(child is StreamBuilder){
      // final t = child as StatefulWidget;
    }
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return parent;
  }
}

A: I haven't seen any code that may modify the existing widget tree. I think it is better to add Visibility to every RegularButton (or other widgets you want to control) and then control them by searching the key.
You can do it by controlling all keys somewhere (like provider, GlobalKey + StatefulWidget, or something else that can manage the widget statement) and change the widget state directly.
If you try to recursively track down and modify the tree, I can only think of copying a new one. That means you must replica all the widgets you tracked:
// original tree is widget.child
...
late Widget newTree;

@override
void initState() {
  newTree = _widgetRecursion(null, widget.child);
  super.initState();
}

Widget _widgetRecursion(Widget? parent,Widget? child) {
  if(child is RegularButton){
      return Visibility(child: child,visible: false,);
  }
  if(child is SomeWidget){
     return SomeWidget(
       someProperty: child.someProperty,
       child: _widgetRecursion(child, child.child),
     );
  }
  if(child is TopWidget){
    return TopWidget(child: _widgetRecursion(child, child.child);
  }
}

@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
  return newTree;
}

The Two-Headed Singer is a Whatnot with one green head and one blue head, who made appearances on two episodes of The Muppet Show.
On episode 117, the Two-Headed Singer, performed by Jerry Nelson and Richard Hunt, sang "Jump Shout Boogie" with Ben Vereen as the opening number.
On episode 122, he sang an excerpt from "Together Wherever We Go" with Ethel Merman as part of the opening "duets" medley. Although "Together Wherever We Go" was, appropriately enough, originally composed as a trio, the Two-Headed Singer in this appearance is performed by only one puppeteer, John Lovelady. He reappears with the rest of the cast at the end of the medley to sing "Mutual Admiration Society" and also appears in the closing.

Oikyafront's public rally at Suhrawardy Udyan Oct 22
Dhaka, Oct 16 (UNB) - Jatiya Oikyafront, led by Dr Kamal Hossain, on Wednesday decided to hold a public rally at Suhrawardy Udyan in the city on October 22, protesting the murder of Buet student Abrar Fahad.
The alliance will also launch a mass signature campaign both at home and abroad to register its protest against the murder of the meritorious student.
The decisions were taken at a meeting of the alliance's steering committee held at Dr Kamal's Motijheel chamber.
Talking to reporters after the meeting, Dr Kamal said, "We all are worried about the country's situation. People are also concerned as different dreadful incidents have taken place recently."
He said a brilliant and innocent student like Abrar was killed in a planned way. "This is really dangerous."
Dr Kamal, also the President of Gonoforum, said their meeting discussed various incidents, including Abrar killing, which have taken place in the country recently, and decided to hold a public rally at Suhrawardy Udyan on September 22.
At the rally, he said, the alliance leaders will focus on the country's overall situation.
Abrar Fahad, 21, a resident of Sher-e-Bangla Hall of Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (Buet), was beaten to death allegedly by some Chhatra League leaders and activists of the university unit on October 7.
On Sunday, police foiled a 'civic mourning rally' brought out by the Oikyafront in the city protesting the killing of Abrar Fahad.
Asked whether they will hold the rally if they are not given permission for it, Dr Kamal said they will take a decision on the matter considering the evolving situation.
"But the government should know it is violating the constitution by not allowing permission for the public meetings. The Constitution enshrined the right to ho hold meetings, rallies and express opinions. If the government violates the constitution, I think people should push them out (of power)," he observed.
Gonoforum General Secretary Dr Reza Kibria said Oikyafront will collect mass signature in Bangladesh and different countries across the world seeking the proper trial of Abrar murder, apart from the rally in the city.
"All the parties of our alliance will present the format of the mass signature campaign on their websites. This campaign will be launched almost following the similar model of protest as we did after the murder of my father (Shah AMS Kibria)," he said.
Reza said they will later inform all about the schedule to launch the campaign.
Once the campaign is over, he said, they will display the signatures in Dhaka and other major cities.
Jatiya Samajtantrik Dal President ASM Abdur Rob, Nagorik Oikya Convener Mahmudur Rahman Manna, Gonoforum Executive Presidents Prof Abu Sayeed, Subrata Chowdhury, BNP Standing Committee Member Iqbal Hasan Mahmud Tuku and Gonoshasthya Kendra Founder Dr Zafrullah Chowdhury were, among others, present at the meeting held with Dr Kamal Hossain in the chair.
Will remain on streets until govt's fall: Khandker Mahbub
Dhaka, Oct 15 (UNB) – Jatiyatabadi Ainjibi Forum Convener Advocate Khandker Mahbub Hossain on Tuesday said pro-BNP lawyers will be there on the streets with politicians until the fall of the current government is ensured.
"People and lawyers have awakened. We'll surely free Khaleda Zia through a strong agitation. We've taken a vow that we'll remain in the field with politicians until an election is held under a neutral government and until the current regime's fall is ensured," he said.
Mahbub, also a BNP vice-chairman, came up with the remarks while talking to reporters after placing wreaths at party founder Ziaur Rahman's grave together with leaders of the newly formed convening committee of Jatiyatabadi Ainjibi Forum.
He demanded the government release all the arrested political leaders, including BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia.
The BNP leader alleged that Bangladesh has now turned into a den of corruption, killing, rape and enforced disappearance due to the 'misrule' of the current government.
"Who have set up casinos and who have given them shelter? You won't be able to save big fish by arresting some corrupt elements. We'll put all the corrupt people on trial," he warned.
BNP standing committee members Moudud Ahmed, Mirza Abbas, Selima Rahman, and vice-chairmen Netai Roy Chowdhury and Mir Mohammad Nasir were, among others, present.
BNP making Abrar murder an issue for movement: Quader
Dhaka, Oct 15 (UNB) – Claiming that BNP is not concerned at all at the murder of Buet student Abrar Fahad, Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader on Tuesday said the party wants to make it an issue for waging a movement.
"BNP wants to make the Abrar killing an issue to wage a movement as they failed to do so for various reasons," he said while talking to reporters at the Secretariat.
Quader, also road transport and bridges minister, said quick action was taken after the murder. "Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina called the IGP and instructed him to arrest all the killers."
Those involved with the incident have been arrested, he said, adding that the Prime Minister also directed the law minister for quick disposal of the case.
The ruling party leader questioned the logic behind the demonstration by the students of Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (Buet) when all of their demands were met.
Meanwhile, the Buet students withdrew their protests in the evening as the university authorities accepted most of their demands.
They, however, announced to boycott all the academic activities until the killers are expelled from the university and law enforcers submit the charge-sheet in the Abrar Fahad murder case.
Mentioning that the Abrar killing is embarrassing for the party and the government, Quader said it will not be right to blame Bangladesh Chhatra League for the murder. "The party won't take the responsibility for the misdeeds of a handful of activists. Those committed the crime will be brought under justice."
He, however, said the government must take the responsibility for the incident as it is in power.
Abrar Fahad, 21, a second-year student of electrical and electronic engineering department of Buet, was beaten to death allegedly by Bangladesh Chhatra League leaders at Sher-e-Bangla Hall.
He was found dead on the staircase of the dormitory in the early hours of October 7 after the BCL leaders beat him at room-2011.
Time coming to oust govt, says BNP
Dhaka, Oct 15 (UNB) – BNP senior leader Moudud Ahmed on Tuesday urged their party leaders and activists to have patience as the time is coming to oust the current 'oppressive government' through a mass upsurge.
"Many people think how long they'll endure the repression. We've to withstand it for a few more days. I think a time will come when people will dislodge the repressive regime through a mass upsurge," he said.
Speaking at a discussion, the BNP leader also said the sooner the current government quits the better for the country. "So, we demand the government step down immediately paving the path for forming a representative administration through a fair and credible election," he said.
The BNP-led 20-party Alliance arranged the programme at the Jatiya Press Club in memory of Buet student Abrar Fahad who was killed reportedly by some Bangladesh Chhatra League leaders and activists last week.
About BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia's imprisonment, he said, "I think Khaleda Zia's release is not possible through the legal process. She won't be freed on parole, and the only way to have her freed is a street movement. We must free her, and it's now a matter of time."
Moudud, a BNP standing committee member, said Khaleda's release is now essential to 'restore' the rule of law, the independence of judiciary, press freedom and create an atmosphere in the country so that people can live in a civilised way.
He said the 20-party alliance will remain intact, but a greater platform involving patriotic and democracy-loving people must be formed to wage a successful movement and tackle the current situation.
The BNP leader said an anarchic situation has been prevailing everywhere while widespread corruption is going on as the current government has no accountability.
He said people have got fed up with the 'evil' activities of Chhatra League and Jubo League.
Moudud said Buet student Abrar's murder has exposed that the government does not even hesitate to kill the dissidents. "This is a fascist attitude."
He said people now know the ruling party-backed Chhatra League has created torture cells not only at Buet, but also at all the halls and dormitories of other universities, including Dhaka University. "They not only repress and beat the dissidents, but also the common students."
BNP standing committee member Gayeshwar Chandra Roy said there are some 'collaborators of the government' in their party who are trying to free Khaleda on parole.
He said there is no reason for the BNP chief to be freed on parole or through a compromise with the government.
The BNP leader opposed different quarters' demand for banning student politics, saying it is a conspiracy. "Banning student politics will be a suicidal decision…instead the evil politics in the name of student politics should be stopped."
'Appeasing-India motive' worked behind signing 'anti-state' deals: BNP
Dhaka, Oct 12 (UNB) – BNP senior leaders on Saturday alleged that the government has signed 'anti-state' deals with India only to hang onto power by appeasing the neighbouring country.
Speaking at a rally, they also urged people to wage a united movement to protect the country's interests and sovereignty by ensuring the fall of the current government and thus value the blood of slain Buet student Abrar Fahad.
"We think the deals with India on withdrawal of Fen River water, use of Chattogram and Mongla ports and providing LPG and a Coastal Surveillance System are against the national interests," said BNP standing committee member Khandaker Mosharraf Hossain.
He further said, "You (govt) have signed the deals due to your subservient foreign policy and the policy of appeasing India. The main motive behind such deals is to cling to power by force…this regime has sacrificed our interest only to stay in power."
As part of its two-day programme, BNP arranged the rally in front of its Nayapaltan central office protesting the murder of Buet student Abrar Fahad and demanding the cancellation of 'anti-state' deals with India. Though the party was denied permission by the Dhaka Metropolitan Police, several thousand party leaders and activists gathered in front of their office and peacefully held the programme.
As the citizens of the country, Mosharraf said they have the right to register their protest against the 'anti-nation deals'.
Mosharraf said the deals with India are not only against the country its independence and sovereignty, but also a move to establish imperialism in Bangladesh.
He said Abrar was killed by Bangladesh Chhatra League as he took position in favour of the country and its people and sovereignty through a status on Facebook. "You not only killed Abrar, but also buried the interests of the country's people."
Stating that the students and the country's people have burst into protests over the death of the Buet student, the BNP leader said Abrar has initiated a movement for the fall of the current government by sacrificing his blood. "We believe the country's patriotic people, and students will get united and don't allow going Abrar's blood in vain. This regime won't be able to cling to power anymore."
BNP standing committee member Moudud Ahmed said the current government has plunged into corruption, and it will not be able to get rid of it. "I think the fall of the current government is now just a matter of some time. People can't tolerate such a regime for a long time."
Protesting the murder of Abrar, he said Chhatra League has set up torture cells at halls and hostels in all the educational institutions across the country. "The killing of Abrar has seriously hurt the country's people."
Referring to the Prime Minister's comment that she did not sacrifice the country's interests, Moudud said, "People are not fools, and they know you've sold out the country's sovereignty going to India. But you couldn't bring anything for the country's people in return. This failure will remain as a stigma of the current government in history."
The BNP leader called upon people to get ready for launching a strong movement against the government. "This government can't be allowed to stay in power. People will wage a united movement under the leadership of BNP and Khaleda Zia to oust the current regime and restore democracy in the country."
BNP standing committee member Mirza Abbas said Sheikh Hasina unilaterally gave India everything through recent bilateral documents without bringing anything for the country's people.
"As long as the government follows a knee-jerk foreign policy, it won't be able to realise anything (from India) except sacrificing the country's interests," he added.

Less poverty in Africa but numbers remain stubbornly high
Labourers pick tea in Rwanda, which has made clear progress thanks to advances in agriculture, World Bank vice-president Makhtar Diop told AFP
Labourers pick tea in Rwanda, which has made clear progress thanks to advances in agriculture, World Bank vice-president Makhtar Diop told AFP (AFP Photo/Phil Moore)
Emmanuel Vorgbe with Marie Wolfrom
Accra (AFP) - Poverty has slightly eased in sub-Saharan Africa in the past 20 years but the population boom means the numbers living in extreme conditions remains stubbornly high, a World Bank study showed Friday.
Almost half of the continent's population (43 percent) was living below the poverty line in 2012, defined as surviving on less than $1.90 a day. In 1990, it was 56 percent.
Strong economic growth has helped achieve advances in health and education, but the rapid rise in population has led to an increase in the overall number of extreme poor, the study says.
Poverty remains more deep-rooted in Africa than in any other continent. Some 388 million people were considered to be living in poverty in 2012 compared to 280 million two decades earlier.
Africa's population has grown from around 600 million in 1990 to over a billion in 2012 and will continue to grow to an estimated 1.6 billion by 2030, according to the African Development Bank.
Poverty figures mask wide disparities from country to country and also between urban and rural areas, the report shows, highlighting the difficulty of bringing together data from across the African continent.
Ghana, where the report was launched by World Bank president Jim Yong Kim, is a success, having cut its poverty rate from 53 percent in 1991 to 21 percent in 2012.
Rwanda and Ethiopia have also made clear progress thanks to advances in agriculture, World Bank vice-president Makhtar Diop told AFP in an interview.
"Rwanda has done impressive work in hill terracing," Diop said, which had led to a doubling of the corn harvest and a 130-percent increase in the potato crop.
In a continent where 60-70 percent of people live in rural areas, "the growth rate in agriculture makes an enormous contribution to reducing poverty," said Diop, a Senegalese economist.
Other countries, including Tanzania and Senegal, have achieved success using a scheme pioneered in Brazil under which the state gives non-financial aid to the poorest families, for example in the form of free vaccines.
- Fewer conflicts -
Unsurprisingly, war and violence remain the principal obstacles to reducing poverty.
In Burundi, the proportion of people living under the poverty threshold went from 21 percent before the 1993-2006 civil war to 64 percent in 2007.
But "there are fewer conflicts than before and they are changing in nature and are more local," Diop said.
The report also points to the "worrisome development" that people living in countries rich in resources such as oil, gold and diamonds are paying what it calls "a human development penalty".
Their life expectancy is 10 percent shorter on average, they are less literate, suffer higher levels of malnutrition and also experience more domestic violence.
The six countries where the inequality is greatest -- Botswana, Lesotho, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland and Zambia -- are all situated in the south where diamond and mineral deposits are high.
The disparities in wealth can also be seen within countries -- in Kenya, for example, 8,000 people hold almost two-thirds of the wealth.

Biosynthesis of Gold Nanoparticles by Foliar Broths: Roles of Biocompounds and Other Attributes of the Extracts View Full Text
Yao Zhou, Wenshuang Lin, Jiale Huang, Wenta Wang, Yixian Gao, Liqin Lin, Qingbiao Li, Ling Lin, Mingming Du
Biosynthesis of nanoparticles has arisen as a promising alternative to conventional synthetic methodologies owing to its eco-friendly advantages, and the involved bioprotocol still needs further clarification. This research, for the first time from the standpoint of statistics, confirmed an electrostatic force or ionic bond-based interaction between the chloroauric ions and the involved bioconstituents and manifested that reducing sugars and flavonoids were both important reductants responsible for conversion of Au(III) to Au(0). The result also demonstrated that the proteins were not the reducing agents, yet they might be protection agents in biosynthesis of gold nanoparticles (GNPs). Besides, a significant linear relationship was found between the anti-oxidant ability of the foliar broths and their capability to reduce Au(III) into Au(0). Furthermore, the preliminary investigation based on the boxplot on the size/shape distribution of the biosynthesized GNPs revealed that gold nanospheres with higher degree of homogeneity in size tended to be promoted by foliar broths containing higher content of reducing sugars/flavonoids and proteins. Otherwise, i.e., for those broths with lower content of the above biocompounds, sphere GNPs of wider size distribution or even gold nanotriangles tended to be fabricated.(See supplementary material 1).

"description": " Biosynthesis of nanoparticles has arisen as a promising alternative to conventional synthetic methodologies owing to its eco-friendly advantages, and the involved bioprotocol still needs further clarification. This research, for the first time from the standpoint of statistics, confirmed an electrostatic force or ionic bond-based interaction between the chloroauric ions and the involved bioconstituents and manifested that reducing sugars and flavonoids were both important reductants responsible for conversion of Au(III) to Au(0). The result also demonstrated that the proteins were not the reducing agents, yet they might be protection agents in biosynthesis of gold nanoparticles (GNPs). Besides, a significant linear relationship was found between the anti-oxidant ability of the foliar broths and their capability to reduce Au(III) into Au(0). Furthermore, the preliminary investigation based on the boxplot on the size/shape distribution of the biosynthesized GNPs revealed that gold nanospheres with higher degree of homogeneity in size tended to be promoted by foliar broths containing higher content of reducing sugars/flavonoids and proteins. Otherwise, i.e., for those broths with lower content of the above biocompounds, sphere GNPs of wider size distribution or even gold nanotriangles tended to be fabricated.(See supplementary material 1).",

The cowl's basic design has remained unchanged; however, it has been frequently updated to advance Batman's crusade. The one aspect of the cowl that does undergo variations is the ears, although the length and pointiness of the ears are supposedly primarily due to the style of the artist drawing Batman, and tends not to be tied to the functionality of the cowl in any way. However, artist, Karl Kerchl has drawn Batman's costume vault showing that he has a wide selection of cowls with ears of different lengths (Adventures of Superman #643).
The yearly New York Halloween Parade, begun in 1974 by puppeteer and mask maker Ralph Lee of Greenwich Village, is a large Halloween parade and one of America's only major nighttime parades (along with Portland's Starlight Parade), attracting more than 60,000 costumed participants, two million spectators, and a worldwide television audience of over 100 million.[157] The largest Halloween parade in the world takes place in Derry in Northern Ireland, which was named the "best Halloween destination in the world" having been voted number one in a USA Today readers' poll in 2015.[158]

Is there anything more perfect than Dorinda talking to her Halloween decorations? Yes, there is: It's drunk Dorinda trying to explain how she got her Lady Gaga costume made by way of Saturday Night Live, Andy Samberg and possibly Adam Sandler. Before she hosted her party—and got mad at Sonja for not greeting her as the host of the party—Dorinda hosted Luann for a post-divorce lunch.
In the Roman Catholic Church, Halloween's Christian connection is acknowledged, and Halloween celebrations are common in many Catholic parochial schools.[222][223] Many fundamentalist and evangelical churches use "Hell houses" and comic-style tracts in order to make use of Halloween's popularity as an opportunity for evangelism.[224] Others consider Halloween to be completely incompatible with the Christian faith due to its putative origins in the Festival of the Dead celebration.[225] Indeed, even though Eastern Orthodox Christians observe All Hallows' Day on the First Sunday after Pentecost. The Eastern Orthodox Church recommends the observance of Vespers or a Paraklesis on the Western observance of All Hallows' Eve, out of the pastoral need to provide an alternative to popular celebrations.[226]

As different artists have taken over the responsibility of drawing the character, the details of the suit have changed considerably. The original incarnation of the cape was a wing-like structure inspired by drawings by Leonardo da Vinci. This eventually evolved into a more cape-like design of varying length. Some artists draw the cape with protrusions on the shoulders, likely representing the "thumb" part of a bat's wing, though this is not a consistent addition. The cape is occasionally depicted as bulletproof.The cape varies according to the current writer, sometimes being depicted as bulletproof and fire resistant, and other times being nothing more than simple fabric that tears easily and sustains constant damage and is continuously replaced.

It ought to be disputed rather than indulged for the sake of these students, who need someone to teach them how empowered they are by virtue of their mere enrollment; that no one is capable of invalidating their existence, full stop; that their worth is inherent, not contingent; that everyone is offended by things around them; that they are capable of tremendous resilience; and that most possess it now despite the disempowering ideology foisted on them by well-intentioned, wrongheaded ideologues encouraging them to imagine that they are not privileged.
Jump up ^ Nicholas Rogers (2002). Halloween: From Pagan Ritual to Party Night. Oxford University Press. Archived from the original on 31 December 2014. Retrieved 31 October 2011. Halloween and the Day of the Dead share a common origin in the Christian commemoration of the dead on All Saints' and All Souls' Day. But both are thought to embody strong pre-Christian beliefs. In the case of Halloween, the Celtic celebration of Samhain is critical to its pagan legacy, a claim that has been foregrounded in recent years by both new-age enthusiasts and the evangelical Right.
Indira "Indy" Daimonji (appeared in Spider-Man: The New Animated Series): She is Peter Parker's potential love interest and a rival of Mary Jane Watson. She works at a news network down in Manhattan. She is seriously injured by Spider-Man in the series finale when Spider-Man is tricked by the Gaines Twins into injuring Indy. This led to Peter giving up being Spider-Man
There was a second miniseries, Spider-Men II, released in 2017. It was a new team-up of Peter and Miles, now both living in the mainstream Marvel universe. It also features the native Miles Morales of the mainstream universe, an adult and close friend of the Kingpin. At the end of the story, the adult Morales moves into the Ultimate Marvel universe, which had been destroyed in the 2015 Secret Wars crossover. This remade the Ultimate universe, Peter Parker is now Spider-Man again, and has joined the Ultimates.[14]
Captain Marvel a.k.a. Carol Danvers: Carol Danvers, the superhero Ms. Marvel, has worked with Spider-Man on occasion and even agreed to go on a date with him in accordance with his helping her on a mission, despite how angry he can make her. She later fulfills her promise.[3] Spider-Man had admitted to himself he finds her attractive in her outfit. At the end of the near disastrous date, the two bonded together over a love of junk food. After she was possessed by the symbiote for a time, Venom hints to Spider-Man that his feelings for Ms. Marvel are mutual. The two have remained good friends.
In 1998 writer-artist John Byrne revamped the origin of Spider-Man in the 13-issue limited series Spider-Man: Chapter One (December 1998 – October 1999), similar to Byrne's adding details and some revisions to Superman's origin in DC Comics' The Man of Steel.[36] At the same time the original The Amazing Spider-Man was ended with issue #441 (November 1998), and The Amazing Spider-Man was restarted with vol. 2, #1 (January 1999).[37] In 2003 Marvel reintroduced the original numbering for The Amazing Spider-Man and what would have been vol. 2, #59 became issue #500 (December 2003).[37]
The ideas of second-wave feminism, which spread through the 1960s into the 1970s, greatly influenced the way comic book companies would depict as well as market their female characters: Wonder Woman was for a time revamped as a mod-dressing martial artist directly inspired by the Emma Peel character from the British television series The Avengers (no relation to the superhero team of the same name),[29] but later reverted to Marston's original concept after the editors of Ms. magazine publicly disapproved of the character being depowered and without her traditional costume;[30] Supergirl was moved from being a secondary feature on Action Comics to headline Adventure Comics in 1969; the Lady Liberators appeared in an issue of The Avengers as a group of mind-controlled superheroines led by Valkyrie (actually a disguised supervillainess) and were meant to be a caricatured parody of feminist activists;[31] and Jean Grey became the embodiment of a cosmic being known as the Phoenix Force with seemingly unlimited power in the late 1970s, a stark contrast from her depiction as the weakest member of her team a decade ago.
Some Christians feel concerned about the modern celebration of Halloween because they feel it trivializes – or celebrates – paganism, the occult, or other practices and cultural phenomena deemed incompatible with their beliefs.[217] Father Gabriele Amorth, an exorcist in Rome, has said, "if English and American children like to dress up as witches and devils on one night of the year that is not a problem. If it is just a game, there is no harm in that."[218] In more recent years, the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston has organized a "Saint Fest" on Halloween.[219] Similarly, many contemporary Protestant churches view Halloween as a fun event for children, holding events in their churches where children and their parents can dress up, play games, and get candy for free. To these Christians, Halloween holds no threat to the spiritual lives of children: being taught about death and mortality, and the ways of the Celtic ancestors actually being a valuable life lesson and a part of many of their parishioners' heritage.[220] Christian minister Sam Portaro wrote that Halloween is about using "humor and ridicule to confront the power of death".[221]
Karen: The suit has a built-in A.I. named Karen, similar to Tony Stark 's F.R.I.D.A.Y., that informs Spider-Man on changing tactical situations and provides diagnostic reports. This feature was initially set to activate after Parker completed the Training Wheels Protocol, but Ned Leeds unlocked it with the rest of the suit's abilities. Karen records and stores data while the suit is in use through the Baby Monitor Protocol, allowing Spider-Man to access a personal database and review information he may have overlooked previously, or to research people or events he has previously encountered. Karen also provides suggestions and activates features autonomously, such as when she enabled the suit's 'Enhanced Reconnaissance Mode' when Parker needed help surveying a couple of criminals.
To help with the rewrites, the production brought in Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, a playwright as well as well as a comic writer, having had a short run on Spectacular Spider-Man in 2006. After opening for a second time, the show once again received poor reviews, being called one of the worst Broadway shows of all time by New York Times critic Ben Brantley.

The sales of this series were nothing short of phenomenal, with approx. 2.5 million copies eventually printing, including special bagged editions and a number of variant covers.
The Marvel Comics teams of the early 1960s typically included at least one (and often the only) female member, much like DC's flagship superhero team the Justice League of America (whose initial roster included Wonder Woman as the token female); examples include the Fantastic Four's Invisible Girl, the X-Men's Jean Grey (originally known as Marvel Girl), the Avengers' Wasp, and the Brotherhood of Mutants' Scarlet Witch (who later joined the Avengers).
The Marvel Zombies universe features a Spider-Man who has been turned into a flesh-eating zombie after being infected by Zombie Captain America.[12] Although Spider-Man is just as ravenous as the other zombies when hungry, when he has eaten, Spider-Man is racked with guilt at what he has done, especially for having eaten Mary Jane and Aunt May, but unable to change his nature.[13] At the conclusion of the original series, Spider-Man is one of the heroes who become The Galacti, having consumed the original Galactus and subsequently acquiring his cosmic powers.[14]

After the Skrull invasion, the Dark Reign took hold. Norman Osborn was seen as a hero and became the leader of the world's national security, hunting down the heroes. Spider-Man attempted to stop him by infiltrating Stark Tower during the American Son story. He fought Osborn once more when he is placed on Osborn's list and managed to broadcast on the internet a video of Osborn conducting horrible experiments. He then joined Captain America in intercepting Osborn's Siege on Asgard, ending his Dark Reign. The aftermath marked the dawn of the Heroic Age in which Spidey became a member of the newly formed Avengers.
The Toei Company had made a television series based on Marvel's famous hero as a tokusatsu in Japan. Even though the powers and costume are the same; the man behind the mask was a young motorcycle rider named Takuya Yamashiro who instead of getting bitten by a radioactive spider follows his archaeologist father and discovers a UFO called "Marveller" from the planet "Spider". When his father was killed exploring the ship, Takuya meets the lone survivor from Spider. It gives him a bracelet that not only grants him the same costume and the same powers as the American version but it also allows him to summon a giant robot (which looks an awful lot like a Power Ranger zord) to fight the evil of Professor Monster and his monstrous minions. The series lasted 41 episodes and is available in streaming video on Marvel's website.
After Peter had his aunt returned, he decided to stop being Spider-man for good. He started living in a new apartment with his aunt May and wife Mary-Jane. All of New York was wondering where Spider-Man could have gone after his seemingly final battle with the Green Goblin. He would not even react to messages send by Peter's good friend the Human Torch. Peter had found a job at a science-center where he did good work and stayed out of the superhero life, although it turned out that was harder then it seemed. It was at this time that a seemingly new Spider-Man appeared on the scene. It turned out that this was Mattie Franklin, a participant in the Gathering of the Five, whom got the gift of Power. She acted as Spider-man and later as Spider-Woman, when Peter finally accepted that he was needed as Spider-man and returned to the life as a superhero.
In the ongoing series Ultimate Comics: Avengers, a second Spider-Man was shown to be one of its members, and is simply referred to as the Spider. His costume bears an orange-and-purple color as opposed to red-and-blue. The Spider once claimed that he was a clone made from the DNA of Spider-Man and Professor X that was sent from the future. In the "Death of Spider-Man" story arc "Avengers vs. New Ultimates", he is revealed to be North Asian and acting under the orders of Gregory Stark. He led a superhuman uprising in North Korea.[43] During the events of said uprising, The Spider was killed by Hawkeye after the Avengers and the New Ultimates intervened.[volume & issue needed]

Wanted by police and forced into hiding, Spider-Man must find a way to clear his name without being shot on sight. And that's when Electro and Rhino--two of his deadliest foes--arrive on the scene to complicate matters.
To fight the deranged villain known as Massacre, Peter built himself a dark colored bulletproof armored costume that deflects bullets, and equipped himself with magnetic webbing that can be used to disable the radio frequencies of Massacre's charges. It is also lightweight, but needs to recharge after a certain period of usage. Peter has also incorporated the technology in improving road safety.

If you're a guy, you probably spend most nights quoting your favorite movies, telling the latest jokes or mimicking superheroes, whether or not your properly dressed for the occasion. That's why Halloween is the perfect night for men. Is there another holiday where you can dress up like Bender and talk about your shiny metal posterior?

Perhaps, Spider-Man's most famous piece of equipment is his self built web-shooters which allow him to shoot sticky ropes of webbing which he uses to swing from building to building. They are a pair of special wrist devices of Peter's own design that contain a material that mixes with air to web-like material. They can be used in many different ways by varying the pressure and adjusting the nozzles of the spinnerets. They can take the form of strong thin lines, as fine quick spreading lines, or as a thick adhesive liquid. Spider-Man can either use the webbing as web-gloves to protect his hands, as a Web-Parachute, an air-proof Web-Dome, a Web-Shield that offers protection from bullets and energy blasts, as small "web-bullets" that bounce off opponents, use the webbing to ensnare an opponent, tie foes up with a rope and hang them upside down from vertical poles, pulling his foes towards him, or shoot them in any direction he chooses Spider-Man's primary means of transportation is by the use of his webbing to swing around the city. He shoots a strand of webbing to a high location, like the edge of a building, and pushes his body towards any direction he chooses while holding on to the web, allowing him to traverse at an accelerated speed. This artificial webbing lasts for an hour before fading away. More recently he has evolved biological web shooters that spray webbing from his forearms but this power has been erased by Mephisto after the One More Day storyline.
It begins with an orphan named Peter Parker, raised by his beloved Aunt May and Uncle Ben in Queens, New York. A quiet student, he works diligently at his studies and pines for the beautiful Mary Jane Watson. But this ordinary teenage boy is about to have his life turned upside down, when he is bitten by a genetically altered spider. Suddenly, he finds himself possessed of spectacular powers. He is now and forever Spider-Man!
The array of devices Batman carries have become more complex over time. The simple coiled rope and Batarang scaling equipment became a rocket-powered (or compressed air powered) grapple gun. The suit has also carried on different occasions a re-breather device, flash and gas grenades, explosives and a detonator, lockpicks, a signaling device for the Batmobile, electronic surveillance equipment (including video camera and monitor), a forensic kit for gathering crime scene evidence, a medical kit, a cache of money and, in early incarnations, a pistol in a holster. On any occasion where Batman anticipates encountering Kryptonians, he has also carried (in a lead case) a Kryptonite Ring, given to him by Superman as a weapon of last resort.
In the late 1980s and early 1990s, theme parks entered the business seriously. Six Flags Fright Fest began in 1986 and Universal Studios Florida began Halloween Horror Nights in 1991. Knott's Scary Farm experienced a surge in attendance in the 1990s as a result of America's obsession with Halloween as a cultural event. Theme parks have played a major role in globalizing the holiday. Universal Studios Singapore and Universal Studios Japan both participate, while Disney now mounts Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party events at its parks in Paris, Hong Kong and Tokyo, as well as in the United States.[190] The theme park haunts are by far the largest, both in scale and attendance.[191]

In order to choose properly, test and compare different options, but ideally, only those that have handrails to hold onto. If the bunk bed doesn't have handrails, it was probably made for teenagers who don't need to care about balance anymore. Therefore, it all depends on the age of your child. Regardless of its looks, color, or size, we all want to buy the most solid bunk bed we can find. This pretty much limits the choice of wooden and metal bunk beds (which is good because they come in all colors, patterns, or children themes).

Australian High Court blocks frame-up charges against Moti
Patrick O'Connor
The Australian government suffered a significant blow yesterday, with a High Court ruling in favour of former Solomon Islands' Attorney General Julian Moti. In a 6-to-1 majority decision, the court permanently barred any criminal prosecution of Moti on trumped-up statutory rape charges. It found that further prosecution of the charges would amount to an abuse of judicial process, because the Australian government had consciously colluded in Moti's illegal removal from the Solomons in December 2007.
The judgement marks the collapse of Canberra's protracted legal vendetta against Moti. Successive Liberal and Labor governments—working with the Australian Federal Police and the Australian diplomatic corps in the South Pacific—attempted to destroy Moti's professional standing and political influence in the region and have him imprisoned for years because he was regarded as an impediment to the interests of Australian imperialism. From a Melanesian nationalist standpoint, Moti, an expert in international and constitutional law, had worked to uphold the national sovereignty and international legal rights of the small South Pacific states. This came into conflict with Canberra's aggressive drive, backed by the US, to maintain its regional hegemony amid China's rising influence.
In 2004, Australian authorities dredged up fabricated sexual assault allegations against Moti that had already been dismissed by Vanuatu courts. The Australian government's interest in the charges was politically motivated from the very beginning. Internal memos, diplomatic cables, and emails—only made public because of Moti's subsequent fight in the Australian courts—revealed that the then Australian High Commissioner to Solomon Islands, Patrick Cole, demanded an Australian Federal Police (AFP) investigation to assist his efforts to prevent Moti's appointment as the Solomons' attorney general. Cole was desperate to prevent any challenge to Australia's neo-colonial intervention force, the Regional Assistance Mission to Solomon Islands (RAMSI).
The initial allegations were levelled against Moti in 1997 in Vanuatu. Charges were quickly thrown out of court in the pre-trial stage, due to the contradictory and demonstrably false evidence presented by the alleged victim and her family. Last March, the father of the alleged victim confessed, just three days before he died of a heart attack, that the allegations were false and maliciously motivated. He accused the AFP of intimidating his family and offering financial inducements. These allegations have never been investigated. The Australian media has maintained a blackout on the confession—with the exception of SBS Radio, not a single outlet has referred to the father's statement.
The AFP's investigation into Moti, named "Operation Rouge", became the vehicle for his removal from the Solomon Islands in December 2007, after Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare was finally removed from office following a protracted destabilisation campaign mounted by the Australian government. Moti has always maintained that his extraction from the Solomons was illegal—amounting to a kidnapping or rendition—and that the Australian judicial system was therefore bound, in accordance with established precepts of international and common law, to refuse to permit the further prosecution of the charges.
The High Court has now agreed. It noted that the so-called deportation was executed in violation of Moti's right to appeal the order within seven days of its issuance and also in defiance of a specific order issued by a Solomons' magistrate prohibiting Moti's detention and removal from the country. Australian authorities knew this, but nevertheless issued Moti with the necessary travel documentation, without his knowledge or permission.
The High Court explained: "First, Australian officials (both in Honiara and in Canberra) knew that the senior representative of Australia in Honiara at the time (the Acting High Commissioner) was of opinion that the appellant's [Moti's] deportation was not lawful. Second, the Acting High Commissioner's opinion was obviously right. Third, despite the expression of this opinion, and its obviously being right, Australian officials facilitated the unlawful deportation of the appellant by supplying a travel document relating to him (and travel documents for those who would accompany him) at a time when it was known that the documents would be used to effect the unlawful deportation."
On this basis, the court concluded that the maintenance of proceedings against Moti would constitute an "abuse of process of the court" and therefore had to be permanently quashed.
Justice Dyson Heydon issued a minority opinion, arguing against the established legal principle that courts ought to refuse to prosecute someone who has been kidnapped or illegally removed from a foreign jurisdiction by government authorities. Heydon insisted that prosecutions ought to be permitted regardless of how the defendant is brought before the court. The chilling opinion effectively sought to sanction rendition. It pointed to the deeply anti-democratic conceptions that are widely held in the legal and political elite and promoted under the banner of the so-called war on terror.
The majority High Court decision overturned the previous judgements of the lower courts that adjudicated on the Moti case.
In December 2009, the Queensland Supreme Court issued a permanent bar on the attempted prosecution, on the basis of the extraordinary AFP payments to the alleged victim and her family. Between February 2008 and November 2009 about $150,000 was paid—a sum far in excess of regular subsistence witness payments. Payments were repeatedly escalated as the alleged victim threatened to withdraw from the case and go to the media to expose how she was being used to advance the Australian government's political interests. The Queensland Supreme Court said these payments had brought "the administration of justice into disrepute"—but at the same time insisted that it could not adjudicate on the legality of Moti's removal from the Solomons' because this was a foreign jurisdiction.
In July 2010, the Queensland Supreme Court of Appeal reinstated the charges against Moti, dismissing concerns over both the AFP payments and the legality of the lawyer's removal from the Solomons.
The High Court has now insisted that the so-called witness payments were not illegal and had not been used to procure evidence from prosecution witnesses. It added that any improprieties could be raised in the course of a trial to challenge the credibility of witness testimony, but did not warrant a stay of proceedings. This finding appears to establish a dangerous precedent. Permitting a trial even when enormous sums of money are provided by the AFP to procure testimony, if not evidence, creates a potential incentive for individuals to fabricate allegations against Australian citizens visiting or living in the region, especially those identified as opponents of the government.
The High Court ruling on the illegality of the Australian government's actions in December 2007 is nevertheless very significant. Canberra's unlawful targeting of the Solomons' attorney general points to the fraudulent basis for the entire RAMSI intervention. In 2003, the Australian government deployed soldiers, police, and government and legal officials as part of an indefinite takeover of the Solomons' state apparatus. This was promoted as a "humanitarian" mission, centrally aimed at re-establishing the rule of law in the country, following years of low-level communal conflict. Yet the Australian government has repeatedly demonstrated contempt for the law in the Solomon Islands and across the South Pacific.
The High Court made no attempt to answer the obvious question raised by its assessment of what happened in December 2007: Why did the Australian government so blatantly break the law in order to get Moti out of the Solomons?
The illegal extraction was the culmination of a 20-month campaign waged by Canberra against the Sogavare government and its attorney general, Julian Moti. By December 2007, the Australian government was desperate to get Moti out of the Solomons, using whatever means at its disposal. After becoming prime minister in May 2006, Sogavare attempted to lessen RAMSI's control over the country's public finances, and he also called on the intervention force to outline its "exit strategy" from the country. Both moves were furiously denounced by the then Howard government, and the destabilisation campaign began.
Moti's close relations with Sogavare were another factor in Canberra's drive to force "regime change" in Honiara. The Australian government feared that Moti would use his legal experience and expertise to mount a challenge in the Solomons' and international courts to RAMSI, exposing its highly dubious legal underpinnings. Moti was also an important participant in the Solomons government's efforts to convene an official Commission of Inquiry into rioting that destroyed much of Honiara in April 2006, just before Sogavare became prime minister. There is substantial evidence indicating that the violence was instigated by RAMSI forces, which were then deliberately stood down in order to allow the destruction to unfold. Canberra denounced the proposed investigation and witch hunted everyone involved in it. Former Australian Federal Court Justice Marcus Einfeld had been appointed chairman of the Commission of Inquiry—but was forced to resign after becoming subject to a well-timed government and media vilification campaign over a perjury incident related to an unpaid speeding fine.
Unsurprisingly, none of these issues was canvassed in the High Court's judgement. Even in its focus on the illegal facilitation of Moti's extraction from the Solomons in December 2007, the court dealt only with the issuing of travel documents. The High Court insisted that it was "not necessary" to examine the activities of AFP agent Peter Bond. The police officer played an extraordinary role in Honiara immediately prior to Moti's expulsion to Australia. Bond, according to the evidence presented by Moti's counsel, participated in high level Solomons' government meetings convened to organise the so-called deportation, personally fast tracked visas and travel documents for everyone involved in the Moti flight, assured the Solomons' police commissioner that the lawyer's removal was legal, directed a Solomons' immigration officer to "do it quickly because the plane would be waiting", and finally made sure that AFP officers would be waiting to arrest Moti in Australia the moment his plane landed.
In a statement to the World Socialist Web Site after the High Court judgement, Moti said: "The rule of law has finally prevailed over Australian executive lawlessness. The sole objective of the Australian government and its prosecuting authorities was to discredit, demonise and humiliate me. It was in Australia's 'national interest' that I be removed from my official post—and continuing influence in the Pacific region—at any cost. 'Operation Rouge' was the codename devised for the Australian government's mission to criminally accuse, capture, kidnap, remove, eliminate and silence a dissident Australian who dared to challenge Australian imperialism in the South Seas."
The High Court ruling is an important vindication of Moti's determined struggle against the Australian government's vendetta. Enormous pressure has been brought to bear on him and his family. For the last four years he has been unable to work or claim any form of income support. He has lived without a passport or driver's licence, and been forced to comply with unnecessary and onerous bail conditions, including regularly reporting to the local police station. He has nevertheless waged an expensive and protracted legal battle to expose the unlawful acts committed by the Australian government against him. In doing so, he has brought to light important documentation exposing the filthy operations of RAMSI and the Australian government in the Solomons that would otherwise never have been made public.
Moti is now reportedly considering his options in pressing for compensation from the Australian and Solomon Islands' governments. He is also, according to barrister Roger de Robillard, considering calling for an official inquiry similar to those into the illegal deportation of Australian national Vivian Alvarez Solon to the Philippines in 2003 and the unlawful detention of Cornelia Rau in a refugee detention centre in 2004-05.

This sign, and more like it, was put up by the City of Vancouver along the Arbutus Corridor, in anticipation of the resumption of rail traffic along the CP railway line.
Anyway, since these signs first appeared, no trains have run. So the sign is not necessary. In fact, redundant signs tend to reduce compliance with signs in general. Which is not a Good Idea.
This image is taken looking south at the point where the line crosses King Edward. You will notice the post and sign in the middle of the tracks, put there by the contractor to show the limit of the refurbishment work they had performed. From here down to Marine Drive/Kent Avenue track had been lifted, ballst added and graded, ties replaced, level crossings cleaned and so on. From this point north, only some desultory vegetation removal – plus the enthusiastic destruction of community gardens – had taken place. But it is clear from the state of the track that it could not support train operation in its current condition.
At crossings south of this one, the flangeways have been cleared, and in some cases timbers inserted parallel to the rails to make subsequent cleaning easier. Obviously nothing was done here.
On the other side of King Edward the blackberries are returning.
From here northwards the track is once again dissapearing under the growth.
CP were bluffing. You do not need the signs: you can start with the ones one King Ed and work north from there confident that no trains will run. It seems pretty unlikely that they will to the south either, but theoretically they could. I doubt they will.
The City of Vancouver announced today that they had finally got a deal with CP to take over the line and turn it into a Greenway: the potential for future light rail in the longer term is not ruled out.
This looks like the E & N Railway behind our house in Shawnigan Lake. Its rails have seen nothing other than a few maintenance vehicles since 2008.
I'm assuming the school buses, transit buses, and other buses have to turn on their four way flashers, open the driver's window, open the front door, stop, look, and listen, close the doors, and then cross the tracks, and only then, turn the four way flashers off?
The E&N stretches almost 250 km, and it touches the heart of every major city on the Island. It doesn't take a nuclear physicist to see the potential for incrementally building up commuter and freight rail to today's standards. I swear commuter rail will take off if they would link to the ferry terminals and tie improved local transit to the stations, perhaps with light rail.
I suggest First Nations should be full partners from Day One in any effort to improve on the former rail service and in adjacent transit-oriented development, considering 8,000 km2 of their traditional territory was literally stolen from them and given to Robert Dunsmuir in the from of the E&N land grant. That occurred without treaties, legal representation and, with one exception, compensation. Most of that land remains private and in the hands of foretry companies.


Two people have been arrested and charged with multiple offenses after unlawfully entering into a house boat docked at the Buzzard Roost Marina on Lake Norfork. Sheriff's Corporal Kristofer Savino was dispatched to the Marina at approximately 9:58 AM today after an employee at the Marina reported he believed there to be unauthorized persons inside a house boat.
After arriving at the Marina, Corporal Savino learned that the owner of the boat lives out of state. Deputies ordered the persons inside the boat to exit, but they initially refused. A short time later, deputies found an unlocked window on the boat and entry was made. Once inside the boat, deputies found two persons, identified later as 35 year old DAMION JACKSON McBRIDE of rural Mountain Home and 49 year old MELISSA JEANE RICHARDS of Mountain Home.
Deputies found evidence to believe these persons had been staying inside the boat for a period of time. There were unmade beds, food debris, and evidence of smoking. McBRIDE told deputies he had also gone aboard this house boat on previous occasions because it is usually unlocked.
Bond was set at $15,000 for each, and they will appear in Circuit Court on March 28th. The owner of the boat has been contacted and informed of the matter.
