Jayson Anthony Paul (* 10. Dezember 1984 in Brooklyn, New York City, New York), besser bekannt unter seinem Ringnamen JTG, ist ein US-amerikanischer Wrestler, der unter anderem bei der WWE unter Vertrag stand.

Karriere

World Wrestling Entertainment (2006–2007)
Paul begann seine Karriere 2006 in der WWE-Entwicklungs-Liga Ohio Valley Wrestling unter dem Ringnamen "The Neighborhoodie". Dort wurde er mit Shad Gaspard in ein Tag-Team namens "The Gang-Stars" gesteckt. Sie schafften es die OVW Southern Tag Team Championship zu gewinnen.

2006 wurde das Tag Team von der OVW nach WWE Raw befördert und in "Cryme Tyme" umbenannt. Paul wechselte den Ringnamen von "The Neighborhoodie" zu "JTG". Am 16. Oktober 2006 debütierten Cryme Tyme und besiegten die WWE World Tag Team Champions The Spirit Squad (Mike Mondo & Johnny Jeter) in einem Nicht-Titelkampf. Im November 2006 besiegten Cryme Tyme Lance Cade, Trevor Murdoch, Charlie Haas, Viscera, und The Highlanders in einem Texas Tornado-Match bei Survivor Series. Als Teil ihres Gimmicks klauten sie regelmäßig Gegenstände von anderen Wrestler und On-Air-Personen und verkauften diese an Fans. Sie verkauften auch falsche Startnummern an andere Teilnehmer beim Royal Rumble. Ein paar Monate später gewannen Cryme Tyme ein Tag Team Turmoil-Match gegen The Highlanders, The World's Greatest Tag Team, Cade, Murdoch, "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan und Super Crazy beim New Year's Revolution-Pay-per-View, wodurch sie sich einen Titelkampf um die World Tag Team Championship verdienten.

Am 29. Juni 2007 verloren Cryme Tyme gegen Deuce 'n Domino bei WWE SmackDown. Während diese ihren Sieg feierten, klauten Cryme Tyme innerhalb der Storyline das Auto von Deuce 'n Domino und verkauften es. Am 21. Juli 2007 besiegten Cryme Tyme die James Boys und gewannen so die OVW Southern Tag Team Championship zum zweiten Mal. Am 20. August 2007 klauten Cryme Tyme Murdoch's Hut und verkauften es an einen Fan. In der darauffolgenden Woche klauten sie Cade's Hut und verschenkten es an einen Fan. Am 2. September 2007 wurden beide, Paul und Gaspard, mitten in der Fehde von der WWE entlassen.

Independent-Bereich (2007–2008)
Paul trat zusammen mit Gaspard bei der 10. Geburtstagsshow von Jersey All Pro Wrestling am 27. Oktober 2007 auf. Unter dem Namen "Crime Time" besiegten sie die "Dirty Rotten Scoundrelz". Paul erschien auch bei Derby City Wrestling, wo er in einer Fehde mit "The Mobile Homers" in der DCW involviert war.

Rückkehr zur WWE

Team und Fehde mit Shad Gaspard
Cryme Tyme kehrten bei der WWE-Raw-Ausgabe vom 31. März 2008 zurück, wo sie Lance Cade und Trevor Murdoch in ihrem ersten im Fernsehen ausgestrahlten Match seit fast 6 Monaten besiegten.

Cryme Tyme unterstützten John Cena am 30. Juni bei Raw in einem Match mit JBL. In der darauffolgenden Woche vandalierten sie JBLs Limousine. Cryme Tyme begannen daraufhin eine Fehde mit den World Tag Team Champions Ted DiBiase und Cody Rhodes, in der sie deren Titelgürtel für eine Zeit lang stahlen. Bei WWE Unforgiven 2008 verloren sie ein Titelmatch gegen DiBiase und Rhodes. JTG bekam einen Platz im Royal Rumble, nachdem dieser Shad Gaspard um seinen Platz betrogen hatte. JTG konnte sich fast zwölf Minuten im Ring halten, bevor er vom Undertaker eliminiert wurde. Am 26. Januar verloren Cryme Tyme bei Raw ein Match um die World Tag Team Championship  gegen John Morrison und The Miz.

Am 15. April wurde Cryme Tyme im Zuge des WWE Supplemental Drafts 2009 von Raw nach SmackDown gedraftet. Dort verdienten sie sich ein Unified Tag Team Championship-Match gegen Jeri-Show (Chris Jericho & Big Show) beim SummerSlam, nachdem sie The Hart Dynasty (Tyson Kidd & David Hart Smith (mit Natalya)) bei SmackDown besiegt hatten. Am 6. August besiegte JTG Chris Jericho überraschenderweise bei SmackDown. Bei SummerSlam verloren sie jedoch gegen Jeri-Show. Bei WrestleMania XXVI traten Cryme Tyme in eine Dark-Match-Battle Royal an, welche jedoch keiner von beiden gewinnen konnte.

Am 2. April 2010 verloren Cryme Tyme in einem kurzen Match gegen John Morrison und R-Truth. Nachdem Match attackierte Shad Gaspard JTG, wodurch das Team aufgelöst wurde. Die Fehde fand ihren Höhepunkt in einem Strap Match bei WWE Extreme Rules, welches JTG gewann. Nachdem JTG gegen Caylen Croft gewann, versuchte Shad ihn zu attackieren, was jedoch nicht erfolgreich gelang. Shad gewann das Rematch am 6. Mai bei WWE Superstars. Shad's letzter Auftritt bei der WWE war die SmackDown-Ausgabe vom 14. Mai 2010. Anschließend wurde er zur Florida Championship Wrestling geschickt, wo er in einigen Matches antrat. Shad wurde im November 2010 von der WWE entlassen.

Undercard-Stufe (2010–2014)
Paul wurde als der Pro von Jacob Novak bei WWE NXT Redemption angekündigt. Am 3. Mai 2011 begann seine Fehde mit William Regal. Zwei Wochen später wurde Novak als erster Rookie eliminiert. Am 26. April 2011 wurde Paul im WWE Supplemental Draft zum Raw-Brand gedraftet.

Am 24. Mai 2011 hatte Paul eine Fehde mit dem Rookie von Vladimir Kozlov, Conor O'Brian, nachdem O'Brian Paul durch Pinfall besiegte und Paul ihn anschließend attackiert hat, bis Kozlov O'Brian rettete. Am 26. Mai verlor er gegen Curt Hawkins bei WWE Superstars. Am 7. Juni attackierte Paul Yoshi Tatsu bei NXT Redemption, wodurch er seinen Heel-Status festigte. Matt Striker kam heraus und kündigte ein Match zwischen JTG und Yoshi Tatsu an, welches JTG verlor. Am 9. Juli und 2. August hatte Paul eine Fehde mit Kozlov, nachdem dieser ihn zweimal besiegt hatte. Die Fehde endete als Kozlov am 5. August 2011 von der WWE entlassen wurde. Am 5. August gewann er nach einigen Monaten wieder ein Match, bei dem er zusammen mit David Otunga und Michael McGillicutty Die Usos und Trent Barreta besiegte. Im November 2011 bekam JTG mit Tamina eine Freundin und gleichzeitig Managerin, was zu einer Fehde mit den Usos führte, da Tamina diese vorher gemanagt hatte. Paul verlor dabei ständig die Matches gegen die Usos.

Am 9. Mai 2012 besiegte Paul Yoshi Tatsu bei NXT Redemption, was sein erster und einziger Sieg im Jahre 2012 war. Für den Rest des Jahres 2012 und 2013 kehrte er wieder zur Niederlagenserie zurück, bei der er in der Undercard so gut wie alle Matches verlor. Am 12. Juni wurde Paul von der WWE entlassen.

Privatleben
Paul erlangte den Schulabschluss bei der John Dewey High School in Brooklyn, New York. Im Oktober 2012 verkündete er via Twitter, dass er eine Tochter namens Madison hat.

Rock Climbing - Raising the bar and challenging your group.
Rock climbing is a great activity for groups, and encourages trust while breaking up the day with some fun. TeamBuilding Australia offer extensive packages that help teams get out onto the rock for the first time. Teams feel the energy created when individuals push themselves to the limit, trusting their workmates and feel secure in a managed environment.
Our qualified facilitators and instructors are on site at all times to manage the group and reflect learnings, debrief discoveries and explore key factors for the team to nurture post rock climbing.
Climbing is about the feet, using the legs, not hanging on with hands, so skill sharing and abilities will enhance a teams performance. A key debrief is trust, how well did individuals trust the situation they were in, after all a rope typical can hold 2 tonnes.
After a briefing on safety and etiquette in a dangerous location, teams need to work together to achieve a result where all the participants are comfortable in reaching. It may consist of a group effort, height reached, or the maximum number of participants able to complete the climb.

Likt alla skolästfiskar har spiritisten ett stort huvud och en bakåt avsmalnande kropp, som slutar i en lång, smal, svansliknande stjärt. Fjällen är små, med grov yta. Analfenan och bakre ryggfenan är mycket långa, den senare med mycket korta fenstrålar. Ögonen är påtagligt stora. Ovansidan är grå, ibland med ett brunt eller violett inslag; buken är svart. Fisken har ett lysorgan i närheten av analöppningen. Den kan bli upp till 48 cm lång, men blir vanligtvis inte mer än 30 cm.

Vanor
Spiritisten är en djuphavsfisk, som uppehåller sig nära botten på ett djup mellan 90 och 1 250 m, vanligtvis 200 till 500 m. Arten lever av bottendjur som maskar och kräftdjur; den tar även mindre fiskar.

Utbredning
Arten finns längs atlantkusterna från Newfoundland och Labrador och Nova Scotia i nordväst, Island och Sydnorge i nordöst till nordöstra Sydamerika och Västafrika (Angolakusten) i söder. Går in i västra Medelhavet.

Heat takes its toll on Cajuns' preseason camp
Suffice it to say the summer span had its share of trying times and pitfalls, in large part because of weather concerns.
Heat takes its toll on Cajuns' preseason camp Suffice it to say the summer span had its share of trying times and pitfalls, in large part because of weather concerns. Check out this story on dailyworld.com: https://www.dailyworld.com/story/sports/college/ul/2015/08/21/heat-takes-toll-cajuns-preseason-camp/32161483/
Tim Buckley, Published 8:43 p.m. CT Aug. 21, 2015

With a closed scrimmage Saturday morning essentially marking the end of preseason camp for the UL football team – or least a line of demarcation between it and the start of full-focus preparation on the Ragin' Cajuns' season-opening opponent – coach Mark Hudspeth took time Friday to reflect on how his team's first two-plus weeks of August work went.
"It's been a little bit different camp," said Hudspeth, whose Cajuns open Sept. 5 at Kentucky.
"It's the first time I've ever changed course midstream. We had our itinerary all set to practice in the mornings, and then that heat wave started right as camp started.
"We were scheduled to go (in the morning) every day and we pushed it back to (nighttime) to try to beat some of the heat," he added.
"That was a logistical nightmare, just to get that done."
The first week was especially grueling for the Cajuns, and two receivers — wideout Jared Johnson and slot man Lance Pace — were lost to season-ending knee injuries that required surgery.
A third UL receiver — Jarrod Jackson, a true freshman from East St. John High — was lost this week to a season-ending knee injury as well.
"That probably was the hottest week of practice I've been associated with," Hudspeth said of the first. "They're all hot, don't get me wrong. Every year is hot. But this year was particularly hot, especially after last year was the coolest we've ever had.
"I think our guys that run a lot, like the receivers, it took a toll on them. We had some injuries. I think a lot of that may be traced back just to the heat, and the loss of fluids, and the wear and tear on their bodies in that type of inclement weather."
Hudspeth's original plan was to toughen up his team with plenty of hard hitting as early as allowable by NCAA rule.
That changed, though, when it became evident just how hot it would be.
So on the day players reported to camp early this month, the Cajun coach instead talked about how important it would be to have all key pieces healthy for the Kentucky game.
The early injures — especially that to Johnson — only exacerbated matters, however.
"When some of them went down, we had to back off," Hudspeth said.
Hudspeth said he cut down on two-a-days and scheduled less hard-hitting practice time while upping the usual number of walkthroughs so his players could stay off their feet "to just try to save their legs, save their bodies."
"Because we've got a talented team," he said. "We've just got a young team, an inexperienced team, and when you're fixin' to play young and inexperienced players, and they get hurt, your next in line is really young and inexperienced players."
Still, even while trying to avoid too much time in the direct sun, Hudspeth thinks his players were properly conditioned for the season to come.
That, he said, is largely because "it was hotter this camp during the evening than it was even last year in the middle of the day."
"I think you got what you were looking for, in some aspects," Hudspeth said, "of trying to toughen kids up and get them confident to tackle and those types of things."
One more chance for that before the Cajuns turn their attention to Kentucky comes with Saturday's scrimmage.
Although he originally suggested some primary players would be held back in the third and final scrimmage of camp, Hudspeth on Friday said quarterbacks Brooks Haack and Jalen Nixon — still both fighting for the No. 1 job, with Haack holding an apparent edge — would both gets reps with UL's starting offense.
The major difference compared to those other scrimmages?
"We're probably not going to go as many reps in this third scrimmage as we have the first two," Hudspeth said.
The Cajun coach also suggested that kickers Stevie Artigue and Carlos Alvarez and punter Steven Coutts should plan on plenty of work Saturday, along with the rest of UL's special-team members.
"It will be a little more emphasis on the kicking game," he said, "just to make sure we have covered a lot of different scenarios."

Disability Royal Commission requesting documents and data
The Disability Royal Commission advised last week that it had written to Disability Providers asking them to prepare to produce documents and data.
In particular the Commission advised that it "... will shortly issue them with formal notices to produce documents or to give information about the services they provide, complaints, investigations and reporting of incidents of violence, abuse, neglect and exploitation ... and policies and procedures to identify and manage any such incidents."
Other relevant extracts from the transport include:
"the Commission has compulsory powers which it can use to gather information and evidence if necessary. These include the power to issues notices requiring people to produce documents, things or information to the Commission, to provide written statements or to attend and give evidence in person."
"The Commission does not intend to use these powers to require any action by people with disability. Rather, the Commission may use its powers to obtain documents and other information where necessary from governmental bodies, agencies, commercial organisations and support providers."
"The information gathered by the Commission will assist it to prepare a series of public hearings"
"The Commission proposes that each hearing will focus on a theme. The Commission has developed themes or domains of inquiry around which to structure its work going forward. These domains will be further developed over time, and new themes may emerge as a result of the hearings, submissions or workshops with stakeholders and the community. At this stage, the domains of inquiry are homes and living, relationships, education and learning, economic participation, health, justice, individual autonomy, self-determination and the right to the dignity of risk, community participation and geographical challenges."

Get Ready! Public hearings will "investigate and expose" (Disability Royal Commission)
Disability Royal Commission terms of reference


Software becomes more important than hardware – what does it mean for the energy sector, transportation, healthcare, manufacturing and other industries? Crowdfunding, marketplaces, and blockchain solutions – how does the government plan to use these new technologies? And is there a way to strike a balance between market regulations and tight control?
During the first day of the conference, experts will discuss the implementation of a program for developing the digital economy in Russia in two key areas: IT Infrastructure and Statutory Regulation. The main goals of these areas are the creation of a new regulatory environment for the emergence and development of new technologies, as well as roll-out of digital platforms and innovative solutions to satisfy the demands of authorities, businesses, and the population.
IT infrastructure ensures that consumers have access to digital resources. These include servers, databases, control centers, and other technologies for the collection, storage, processing, and communication of information. The creation of IT infrastructure is the most important requirement for the development of the digital economy. How long will this process take for Russia?
Digitalization is characterized by the fact that software and services become more important, while physical objects and devices lose their prominence. At the same time, traditional sectors of the economy should keep pace with technological progress in order to stay competitive. So what business conditions should the state provide, and what is the right environment that ensures that businesses attract investments, market players receive sufficient profit, and the social sphere and the quality of life of citizens reach a new level? Specific solutions that enable unlocking the accumulated technological and intellectual potential appear only when different levels of government, business, scientific, and research organizations join their efforts.
We are now welcoming a completely different world. Rapid transformation of all aspects of economic activity due to digital technologies makes the state respond quickly and decisively, developing new approaches to regulation. But economic changes occur and dissipate much faster than the norms that are designed to regulate them. As part of this discussion, experts will talk about the creation of new legal conditions for the development of modern technologies in the country and their implementation in the economy.
Regulation: How to avoid the temptation to overregulate the industry?
What are the main risks related to introducing new rules? What sphere of the digital economy really needs tightened legislation?
The first day of the conference will conclude with a lecture by David Rowan, Chief Editor of Wired UK. The lecture requires a separate registration here.
The conference is held within the framework of support of the Data Economy Russia 2024 state program and is part of the Binary District x Strelka summer program. The programme involves a series of educational events about digital technologies and innovations, featuring international business owners and scientists, as well as civil and political leaders.

Protect the land and jobs will grow, new study finds
A paper co-authored by Amherst College economics professor Katharine Sims shows that employment rates in New England towns get a boost when municipalities conserve their acres.

Protect the land and jobs will grow, study finds
A paper co-authored by Amherst College economics professor Katharine Sims and published in the journal Conservation Biology shows that employment rates in New England towns get a boost when municipalities conserve their acres.
Newswise — (AMHERST, Mass.) - As the Green New Deal continues to make headlines across the US—and around the world—the debate about whether or not such conservation proposals can deliver on their promise to create jobs has intensified.
It turns out there is truth to that particular assertion, at least in the experience of New England over the past couple of decades, according Amherst economics professor Katharine Sims and colleagues at Harvard Forest (Harvard University's outdoor laboratory and classroom for ecology and conservation), the Highstead Foundation and Boston University
In a first-of-its-kind analysis, Sims and her fellow researchers and found that when land protection in New England increased, employment rates also rose modestly over the next five-year period even when controlling for other associated factors.
A paper about these findings published this week in the journal Conservation Biology estimates the local net impacts of both private and public land conservation between 1990 and 2015 across 1,500 cities and towns that are home to nearly all of New England's population.
"Job growth was modest but significant across the region, and the effect was amplified in more rural areas," explains Sims, who is a co-lead author of the study.
Sims illustrates the paper's results using a hypothetical example of a town with 50,000 employed people. If the municipality increased its land protection measures by 50 percent, it saw, on average, 750 additional citizens employed in the next five years.
Today, about a quarter of New England's land base is permanently conserved and more than half of the region's conservation has occurred within the last 25 years, says Spencer Meyer, senior conservationist at Highstead and a co-author of the study. "We now have further evidence that conservation generally boosts, rather than depresses, local economies through job growth."
Such findings contradict a long-held view by some skeptics who view conservation—the permanent protection of land from developed uses—as a loss of possible local tax revenue from new development or resource extraction and thus incompatible with economic growth. Proponents of land protection point to the fact that conservation can reduce the cost of community services, while providing both indirect economic benefits (clean water and flood protection) and direct economic gains (increased real estate and amenity values and inputs to the forest and farm products industry).
Previous economic studies have mainly focused on measures taken in the Western U.S., and on projects more commonly associated with public land conservation, such as the creation of national parks. Sims' team's study builds on efforts by the Harvard Forest and Highstead Foundation to track and learn from the unique framework of land protection in New England, which includes large amounts of privately-owned land.
"New England is unique," says Jonathan Thompson, senior ecologist at Harvard Forest and another co-lead author of the study. "Most of its land is privately owned by hundreds of thousands of individual landowners. We've now shown that when private landowners protect their land, the benefits extend beyond nature and into their communities, too."
The gains in employment following increases in conservation may be driven by overall amenity-related growth, or new jobs in tourism and recreation, Sims and her colleagues speculate. They also point to the preservation of jobs in areas with commercial timberlands that support timber harvests, non-timber forest products such as maple syrup, and public access and recreational activities.
In addition to modest job growth, the team found small gains in median household income, overall population, and employment in recreation, tourism, and arts-based industries as a result of land conservation, though the effects were not statistically significant. There was no change in the number of new building permits when conservation increased, suggesting that protecting land does not reduce housing development, but redirects where it occurs. The team notes that more research, especially on property values and tax revenues, is needed to get a more complete picture of the costs and benefits of land conservation.
Sims notes "The future of land conservation is likely to look more like it does in New England: a mix of public and private land conservation in more densely populated areas. Our results are hopeful because they suggest that local economies can benefit from these new forms of stewardship as well."

The new album from The Len Price 3, Kentish Longtails, is a set of short, near-perfect slabs of power-pop that blend influences ranging from The Who, to The Jam, to 60FT Dolls. If the band owes a lot to those past purveyors of this sort of thing, then they at least make the material seem fresh.
If stuff like "Stop Start Lilly" sounds suspiciously like Townshend and co. circa "Pictures of Lily", and "Sucking The Life Out of Me" recalls The Jam, a listener can take some reassurance that kids are still listening to those acts and attempting similar styles. Elsewhere, things get a bit less punchy with the Supergrass-influenced "Pocketful of Watches", and the Kinks-ish "Saturday Morning Film Show", two of the more lyrical numbers on Kentish Longtails. "If You See What I See" roars in a nice approximation of mod-era peers of The Who, like The Move in their early days, while "Man in the Woods" unfurls with a bit more complexity suggesting that this band has more to offer than just derivations of earlier acts' best songs.
The Len Price 3 can crank up this sort of thing really well. If, at times, they lack a certain originality, they make up for that deficiency with a whole helluva lot of spark and fire. Remarkably catchy and substantially tight, the tunes are sure to please fans of all the bands I've mentioned in the course of this review.
Kentish Longtails is out now. More details on The Len Price 3 via the band's official website, or the band's official Facebook page.

Canada's Haiti partners 'saddened' by Ottawa's aid review | CBC News Loaded
Canada's Haiti partners 'saddened' by Ottawa's aid review
The U.S. State Department and the United Nations chided Canada's international co-operation minister Wednesday over his controversial remarks about re-tooling aid to impoverished Haiti.
The Canadian Press · Posted: Jan 10, 2013 9:37 AM ET | Last Updated: January 10, 2013
A Haitian child sits with his family at the northern border crossing with the Dominican Republic on Tuesday, as roughly 2,000 undocumented Haitian workers who returned to their homeland for the holidays were denied reentry because they did not have passports or permits. It's been three years since a devastating earthquake struck Haiti, and work improving conditions in the impoverished country has been difficult and slow. (Manuel Morel/AP Photo)
Julian Fantino told a Montreal newspaper last week he wanted to freeze aid to Haiti, only to have his department, the Canadian International Development Agency, backtrack to explain it was conducting a thorough review of Canada's $1-billion contribution to the Caribbean country.
One of the U.S. State Department's top Haiti officials said it sees Canada as a valued partner in the country and doesn't want it to change any of its programs.
"Haiti is not going to become a middle-income country overnight," Eileen Wickstrom Smith, a senior official in the U.S. State Department's Haiti office, said Wednesday.
"We continue our strong partnership with the government of Haiti and the people of Haiti, and we would like to see the Canadian government continue its programs. We think they've been an important contributor, and we would like them to stay that way."
A senior Haiti official from the United Nations Development Program said there's more going on in Haiti than Fantino may have seen on his recent first trip to the country.
International Cooperation Minister Julian Fantino, seen here with Haitian schoolchildren in November, said in a French-language interview last week that he wasn't happy with the limited results he saw resulting from Canada's aid contributions since Haiti's earthquake. (Canadian International Development Agency)
"We are saddened actually that Canada, a they are reviewing their support," said Jessica Faieta, a deputy director for the UNDP's Latin American bureau.
"I think for anyone who comes to Haiti for the first time, you normally are actually shocked by the level of challenges that the country has. But we also need to look deep into the context of where the country is coming from."
Smith, speaking on a joint conference call, added: "I would agree with what Jessica has said."
Cholera, hurricanes added to earthquake woes
Fantino, who remarked on the garbage he saw strewn about, said he was disappointed by the lack of progress and wanted to find a better way to help Haiti's reconstruction to ensure that Canadian taxpayers' money was well spent.
His remarks last week came just before the third anniversary of the devastating earthquake in Haiti that killed an estimated 300,000 people and left swaths of the country in ruins.
Smith and Faieta said Canada has already been a major player in achieving progress in Haiti.
They, as well as Canadian aid experts, noted Wednesday that Haiti has also been ravaged by a cholera epidemic and three hurricanes since the 2010 earthquake, so it faces no shortage of obstacles.
Moreover, they noted, the country was already the poorest in the Western Hemisphere prior to the massive earthquake.
"I'm not an apologist for all things Haitian, but let's give them a break," said Rosemary McCarney, president of Plan Canada.
"The visual of Haiti is not what people want to see. It's messy and chaotic and hectic, and there's still lots of rubble and there's still lots of broken buildings everywhere.
"Visually, for someone who goes for the first time, it's pretty jarring."

Her organization is focused on education of young children, more than half of whom were not going to school prior to the 2010 earthquake. She called that the closest thing to a "silver bullet" to heal what ails Haiti.
Plan Canada, she said, is not currently receiving any funding from CIDA because it gets what it needs from other donors.
"We've all been very consistent that this is going to be a minimum of a 10-year recovery. Haiti's not for the faint of heart. It's a tough place to work," said McCarney.
Her organization has helped 33,000 children get back to school, helped build 314 classrooms. Meanwhile, another one million people living in tent camps after the earthquake around the capital of Port-au-Prince are back in their communities.
Bravery medals awarded Thursday
Kevin McCort, president of CARE Canada, said he's not surprised that as a new minister, Fantino wants to review the funding of his department's single largest aid recipient.
"But we want to ensure he consults with us. We have lots of experience in Haiti. We can help explain to him and others about what some of the challenges are in Haiti and why it is having trouble reaching the milestones we all want," said McCort.
"He is right. Haiti has not achieved, in broad measures, the kinds of outcomes we would wish. But there's some really good reasons for that."
CIDA's website lists more than 60 separate operational projects for Haiti, more than 50 that are terminating and more than 40 than have been completed. They run the full gamut from health, education, housing and infrastructure.
Faieta, of the UNDP, said Canada "has been a major player" in achieving progress in Haiti.
"It is not, in our opinion, a time to pull the support from Haiti. On the contrary, it is time to recognize the efforts, to recognize the achievements, and to keep supporting Haiti."
Thirteen police officers and a member of the Canadian Forces were honoured Thursday for their bravery while serving on the ground during the earthquake in Haiti.
A ceremony was held in Montreal to pay tribute to the men nearly three years to the day the massive earthquake devastated the Caribbean country.
RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson was present for the presentation of the commendations. Fantino also attended but, contrary to a media advisory, did not field questions from reporters.

Scorps outlast Panthers 95-91 in 3OT
RIO RANCHO – The Farmington boys basketball team finished off an 8-0 record in District 1-5A play Friday night, but it took everything the Scorps had.
After trailing rival Piedra Vista for most of the second half, Farmington rallied to force overtime, then two more overtime periods before picking up a 95-91 victory at the Jerry A. Conner Fieldhouse.
"It was just a classic basketball game between two rival schools," FHS head coach Paul Corley said.
The Panthers (13-12, 3-5 District 1-5A) led 38-35 at halftime and pushed their lead to 54-46 heading to the fourth quarter.
PV maintained its lead through the first part of the final quarter, but the Scorps (24-4, 8-0) held the Panthers to 2 points in the final 3:54 to tie the game at 66 and send it to overtime.
"PV had control of the game and really played a great game," Corley said. "We called a timeout (with four minutes remaining in regulation), and the guys said 'We're not going to lose tonight.'"
Neither side did much offensively in the first overtime, scoring 4 points each to force the second extra stanza.
In the second OT, the offenses picked up, and the game went to the final overtime tied at 84.
In the final overtime, Corley said the Farmington fans made the difference, providing the Scorps with a needed energy boost.
"They were our sixth man, especially late in those overtimes. They really gave us some energy," he said.
The Farmington faithful also proved to be a problem for the Panthers down the stretch.
"We missed a couple huge free throws and stopped attacking. And there was a loud crowd tonight, and that makes it a little difficult," PV head coach Adam Huff said.
Five Scorps finished the game with double-digit scoring. Nick Granger led the way with 23 points. Tyren King added 15, David Riley scored 13, Diego Corley finished with 11 and Berrett Bentley chipped in 10.
Jarrett Graham led PV with 31 points and Keegan Acosta added 21. Cody Harvey and Jimmy Wood added 10 points each for the Panthers.
With the No. 1 seed in the district tournament, the Scorps earned a bye into the tournament's championship game next week. Their opponent is yet to be determined.
PV will face the winner of Miyamura and Aztec in the tournament next week.


Anyone get a notice yet? I have a 2014 Focus SE built on 2-14-2014, so should be in the recall group, but when I click on the link to double check recall status, I get 'no field actions required'. Is it just too early for them to update that, or they don't update the website until a letter has been sent?
FUEL PUMP REPLACEMENT." I called my dealer, and was told by a service advisor that Ford is still in the process of getting out the info on this recall. Apparently there was a problem in the fuel pump manufacturing process that can cause stalling and failure to start/restart. He went on to say that we (owners) should be receiving mail notification of the recall by mid-June.
Maybe Meagan can give us more info on this.
A number of models are affected, there were threads in MkIII & General Car Chat on the subject.
Surprisingly it hasn't gotten much attention here, probably since very few have had an issue related to that.
Thanks Sailor. For those who are interested, this thread had additional details: http://www.focusfanatics.com/forum/m...us-recall.html.
Dealers will receive more information towards the end of the month, and Owner Letters are expected to be mailed the week of June 22. Affected Focus build dates are October 26, 2013 – May 22, 2014. At this time, that's all the info I have for you guys.
Thanks Meagan. I'll be watching for my letter.
Can the two threads be merged?

Ethiopia's NLA Applies New Betting Regulations
by Moses Eze
The rapid growth in gambling and betting in Ethiopia has necessitated new regulations for the industry. The Ethiopian National Lottery Administration, which governs this section of the market, has put new measures in place, seeing some betting companies' operations called to a halt for now. This is partly because of safety concerns in the North and the Administration Security Council's attempts to address these.
As many as 50 branches of popular betting companies have been closed in Bahir Dar and Billiard halls have been shut down too. This action follows in the wake of the NLA's new directive being approved. Their injunction places stricter requirements on industry operators due to the surge of young people wagering.
Similar crackdowns on firms seen as security risks were undertaken in other Amhara Regional State towns. Gondor Town Administrators closed Hookah and Khat venues in January 2022, stating that the youth was being corrupted by their operations. Regional authorities have stated that these businesses are a source of propaganda regarding the Northern Ethiopian civil war. And Dresse Sahilu, PHD, Bahir Dar City Mayor, felt that this widespread action against bookmakers addressed the security threat they held. Speaking to local media agencies, Mayor Sahilu said that gambling was turning the town's young people into good-for-nothings.
No one is allowed to be armed within city limits and unofficial military training is forbidden. Activities in and around the city's trade centers and bars have also been restricted. Speaking to the press, Bahir Dar City Mayor Sahilu explained that maintaining order in the municipality would not be possible without the suspension of these activities. Once the situation is more balanced, the measures would be reconsidered.
Higher Operative Costs
Companies need to have at least 1.5 million Br in their bank accounts to keep their doors open and winners are no longer allowed to receive more than 1 million Br. The new ruling has also raised the cost for a license, from 400 Br to 500 000 Birr and renewals will cost 100 000 Br. The legal gambling age is now 21-years.
NLA Officials Perplexed
The closures have NLA executives bewildered because they have received no complaints from any betting companies. They have been made aware of the widespread shutdown but have no reason for it.
Dessie Dejene, Director of Licensing and Regulation at the NLA, says there are no grounds for closure. All operators are legally allowed to offer their services if their permits are in order. While highlighting this industry's impact on job creation and tax income, Dejene said that betting on sports is not illegal in any way.
On the other hand, a well-known sportsbook's Senior Manager stated that no prior notice of closures was received, and they don't know what's going on. The anonymous source said that these shutdowns would have a very negative effect on the economy and wants to know why licensed bookmakers are appearing on the list of unlawful activities. This company fully intends to take the matter further.
No matter how hurried and baseless measures to maintain law and order may seem, governments have the right to enact them. This is according to legal expert and part-time Addis Ababa University Lecture Liku Worku. Bettors are still able to wager online, however.

Have you seen Matthew Porter?
An appeal for help finding wanted Boston man Matthew Porter has today appeared on BBC One's Crimewatch Roadshow.
Porter is sought in connection with a robbery at Andrew Michaels Jewellers in Newark on 6 January 2016.
Matthew Porter, 35, from Boston, Lincs, was arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to commit robbery on January 11, 2016 and released on police bail.
However, Porter has failed to answer bail and is now wanted.
It is believed Porter may be in the Boston/Lincolnshire area.


If your family makes $250,000 a year, under Obama's plan, every penny in income will get the tax break. If your family makes $260,000 a year, under Obama's plan, you'd get the tax cut for your first $250,000, then pay slightly higher taxes on the $10,000.
As a result, everyone with an income would get a tax break. Even those at the very top would end up paying less in taxes than they did under Clinton because Obama would still give them a break on their first quarter-million.
Good explanation, but there is still one key point left out. It takes an income closer to $300,000 to have a taxable income of $250,000. Few people earning over $200,000 aren't putting a good chunk of income in retirement accounts, and there will be other tax deductions such as mortgage interest and local taxes. This reduces even further the number of people who will have to pay an extra 3 percent on a portion of their income.
Besides, as a business owner, I would also point out that minor changes in taxes have zero impact on how many people I hire. I hire employees based upon what is needed for business purposes. I'm not going to avoid hiring another employee if one is needed should I have to pay a few hundred dollars more a year in taxes if taxes are increased. Democrats are also offering more tax breaks for small business as well as the middle class, but even without these breaks I'd be willing to pay a few hundred dollars more a year in taxes under the Democrats as opposed to voting for a party which is anti-science, pro-theocracy, and hostile to individual liberty.


I'm chairing a convention in two weeks.
and now I have an immobile husband.
But seriously, I am so sorry about hear about the accident.
Nonono -- stick the *baby* in his lap. That way 2 of the problems have solved themselves. At least Katie's not moving on her own, so he won't need to be terribly mobile to keep up with her.
Immobile? That doesn't sound good at all. I wish I were closer to lend a hand. I hope things get better quickly. Good seeing you at 'Fusion and getting to meet your little one. She's adorable.
you have an excellent concom - we've got your back.
Personally, I blame myself for Roper's "accident".
By pushing him to learn how to change a diaper, I made the man panic and stage an accident to take himself out.
hey - wouldn't it be funny if there was some pre-historical Elder God named Calgon, and that whole marketing campaign was just away to recruit new worshippers?
I don't know why but as soon as I read this my mind flipped over to the one act play "God" by Woody Allen.
Good luck. I suppose I'm to far away to help, but my thoughts are with you!
And if I can help at the con, just mention it.
You will be a WONDERFUL fan GoH and help Cap be a major success.
I will certainly try. I've been working on my concert for the past couple of weeks now. I can send you a set list if you want, but be aware that I will probably end up having to cut things because I have about an hour and five minutes of music.
Your 9 1/2 week old baby could be a toddler. ;) At least she's not mobile.
Got that right. A whole world of trouble was avoided by our last big house move being just BEFORE the baby started crawling. Fred would sit her in the back yard, and she'd happily watch the squirrels.
Coming up on this late but if memory serves, I chaired the 1st Capricon when I was 9 mos. pregnant.
I'd say have fun, but that would just be wrong.

Make Airport Transfers from Tunbridge Wells Hassle-Free and Enjoyable!!
Going on international trips from the historic spa town 'Tunbridge Wells' can be either fun or exhaustion, depending upon how you plan your trip. As Gatwick airport is the second busiest airport in London, so no matter what, you have to deal with that passenger traffic. But you can make a trip pleasant if you make decisions wisely. To minimize the hassle of traveling, you can hire Tunbridge Wells to Gatwick Taxi Service from a reputed taxi service provider.
Since Gatwick airport is almost 43 to 45 minutes drive away from Tunbridge Wells, booking a taxi early will help you avoid the last minute rush. Sometimes, there may be a large number of people booking for taxis which can lead to no ride available soon. Other times, it may be just unsurprising traffic delay. So, booking a taxi early and knowing that you're not going to be late due to such reasons would give you peace of mind and keep you calm.
If you change the way you think, you might actually enjoy your smooth ride as you pass from this beautiful historic spa town towards the airport. Officially known as Royal Tunbridge Wells, this is the beloved town of Queen Victoria. Home to the beautiful Pantiles and grandeur Wetherspoons, this town is said to be a real architectural melting pot and known to have a unique ambience. Enjoying the view of amazing architectural buildings and the blessed beauty of this town can be a great time pass to feel relieved from the traveling stress. Thus, booking Tunbridge Wells to Gatwick Taxi Service can actually make your airport transfer pleasant which you may not experience otherwise.
Surely, when you travel through shared and public taxi, your experience can be sometimes very bad. Rude behavior of a driver or company of some extra talkative person can spoil your mood and eventually the whole trip. On the other hand, when you book a taxi from a reputed company, you will get a well-mannered driver. As such companies are extremely concerned about customer satisfaction; they ensure a secure, convenient and relaxed journey for their clients.
As it is about leisure and comfort that you expect to have and enjoy on the way to Gatwick airport, surely they cost a little extra as compared to public transportation services. Private taxi ride keeps you away from hassle and insecurity that you generally have to face in public taxi, train and bus rides. On-time arrival to the airport, smooth ride and your security are prime concerns of the driver. Thus, naturally, these rides are worth the value.
So, whenever you require an airport transfer, just hire Tunbridge Wells to Gatwick Taxi Service and leave all your worries behind.

'Atomic Chicken-Wire' Is Key To Faster DNA Sequencing
Complete the form below and we will email you a PDF version of "'Atomic Chicken-Wire' Is Key To Faster DNA Sequencing"
Led by Dr Jiri Cervenka and PhD candidate Nikolai Dontschuk from the University of Melbourne, the study also included scientists from the Australian Synchrotron and La Trobe University and is published in Nature Communications.
The Australian researchers have shown that graphene- a one-atom thick sheet of hexagonally arranged carbon, shaped like chicken wire - can detect the four nucleobases that make up DNA (cytosine, guanine, adenine and thymine).
A unique combination of the four nucleobases makes up the individual DNA sequence of a gene. Currently, DNA sequencing is a fundamental tool for medical diagnostics, forensic testing and medical and biological research.
The use of graphene to electrically sequence DNA promises to improve the speed, throughput, reliability and accuracy whilst reducing the price compared to current techniques said Nikolai Dontschuk from the University of Melbourne.
"We found that each nucleobase influenced the electronic structure of graphene in a measurably different way," said Mr Dontschuk.
"When used in conjunction with a nanopore (a tiny hole), a single DNA molecule would pass through the graphene-based electrical sensor - like a single string of beads passing through one section of tiny chicken wire- enabling real-time, high-throughput sequencing of a single DNA molecule."
The research team conducted the first experiments to combine in situ electrical measurements of graphene-based field effect transistors (GFET) with photoemission spectroscopy at the soft x-ray spectroscopy beamline at the Synchrotron.
After comparing the experimental and synchrotron results, the team predicted that single-molecule sensing of guanine, cytosine and thymine by bulk graphene devices could be achieved.

Seems like all you have to do is call the toll-free number on the letter and you'll soon be flying off to your desired destination. The offer has a deadline, though, so you'd better call now, right?

"The Race to Develop a Covid Vaccine" from The New York Times
by Sue Robbins | Jun 23, 2020 | Miscellaneous | 0 comments
Judging from comments I've heard and read, many Americans expect that a vaccine against Covid-19 will soon end the need for masks and social distancing and enable us to resume our pre-Covid lives. As one neighbor said, citing the administration's "Warp Speed" agenda to rush a vaccine to market, "I'll start taking the subway and going to the office in the fall when we have the vaccine."
Alas, experts agree, such optimism is totally unrealistic. My neighbor — and the rest of us "nonessential" workers — will be lucky if we have access to a safe and effective vaccine a year from now. Here's why.
Doctors most knowledgeable about vaccine development and the real dangers of reckless haste warn that, however promising a vaccine may seem now or months from now, premature release can do far more harm than good.
As was shown, for example, in 1955 when the original Salk polio vaccine was hastily rolled out, from rushing no good can come. A mishap in mass-producing the vaccine caused polio in 70,000 children, permanently crippling 164 of them and killing 10.
A similar mishap with a coronavirus vaccine "could backfire, increasing people's skepticism about vaccines and vaccine development and their distrust of doctors," Dr. Brit Trogen told me.
"Everyone wants the vaccine to be the silver bullet that gets us out of this crisis, but intense political and public pressure to release a vaccine before the science is ready could have devastating negative consequences," said Dr. Trogen, a pediatric resident at NYU Langone Medical Center and Bellevue Hospital in New York.
Keep in mind that if one or more of the vaccines now being tested for Covid-19 should happen to cause serious illness in even a very small percentage of people, there is still no effective cure.
Experts also worry about unwarranted expectations for the effectiveness of a vaccine. No vaccine prevents illness in 100 percent of recipients, though as with the flu vaccine, people who are vaccinated may end up with milder illness. One of the Covid vaccines being tested would likely be able to prevent many cases of more serious, life-threatening infections, said Dr. Paul A. Offit, a world leader in vaccine development.


At USAID, a project is defined as a set of complementary activities that, together, can achieve a development result. A Mission's suite of projects provides its operational plan for achieving the objectives of its Country Development Cooperation Strategy.
Project design will look and feel different when done from a Journey to Self-Reliance (J2SR) angle. What is unique about the self-reliance vision is that it changes the nature of our partnerships by identifying the strategic partners best positioned to advance self-reliance and share accountability for results. The J2SR lens also gives a heightened emphasis to in-country resourcing, with enterprise-driven growth as a key driver. Finally, it places local systems at the heart of achieving sustainable, resilient results.

Q: What is a reliable way to calculate actual (web) page loadtime I'm interested in knowing the actual average page loadtime for my webapplication.
Simplistically, how log does my average visitor wait before they can start using a page on my site.  From when they click the link to my site until the site is finished rendering & ready to accept input.
The standard solution seems to be to use Javascript to compare the time from a script in the  until a script in the window.onload() event.
(See: http://www.dreamincode.net/code/snippet1908.htm)
This doesn't seem like a very acturate measure to me, as it ignores the time taken to resolve my domain & receive enough HTML content to begin Javascript parsig.
It also looks like Safari fires window.onload before the page has actually finished loading (http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/safaribenchmarks.html).
Any ideas?
Is it possible to get the time a the current request was initiated via Javascript?
What event fires after everything is ready reliably across all browsers?

A: http://www.webpagetest.org/ is an excellent resource for measuring load time
Also google chorme dev tools has a Timeline panel where you can record events,
Here is a 2.5minute video showing you how Timeline in google chrome works http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhaWYQ44WEc

A: FireBug has a "network timing mode" where you can see how long it took to download each resource which makes up your web page.
Plus you should measure the time your server needs to prepare the request. Since you can't influence the browser and the network, rendering time on your server should be as small as possible.

A: Firebug is a great resource for this and loads of other information about your page loads.  Additionally, Firebug with YSlow goes one step further.  YSlow has a hadnful of checks that it runs against your page and grades it's performance based on certain rules (are you using a CDN, is your CSS and JS compressed, etc.).  I've found it invaluable to make some major improvements (JS compression is a great one) to my sites.

A: Try Yahoo's YSLOW, it will answer your post of the questions, but it works only with FireFox (actually its a plugin for firebug)

A: The most accurate way to calculate load times is on the server side: once the page is built, how much it takes to display on the user's browser will depend on:

*

*Current network traffic;

*User's computer specs;

*Which browser he's using.

So, using JavaScript is not a great measure because there are a lot of factors you can't change in there.
The best thing you can do is measure the time each page takes to be generated on your server - that you can improve.
Needless to say, that will depend on which language you're coding in.

A: One thing that can be done is to use Javascript to grab the current time when a client-side event occurs that triggers a post-back to your server.  Passing this value back to your server side will allow you to render it back to the client as your initial 'trigger' time that you can compare against.
Instead of using onLoad, I believe you can put script inline at the end of the document so that it runs as soon as the browser renders that portion of the script.  This will allow you to compare the current time when the inline script runs against the trigger time that was captured when the user initiated the call.
However, as mentioned by Seb, since you can only reliably control the server-side of the loadtime, it would be best to include in your metrics the server page generation time.  If you have both metrics, you can at least see how much of the total time is taken by page generation, and how much is dependent on the various delays that could occur on the client-side.

A: I've always found the Pingdom Tools full page test very useful. It's not an in-code solution, but it does give you a good idea of how quickly (or not) your page loads.

A: psuedo-code.

server marks start of processing the request.
server sends the output.
    script tag, marks start time.
    rest of html markup.
    client script , with server processing time in ms
    client script with window.load event + server-side time
    client script which sends the total back via an ajax call.

A: The method I use is to create a session variable (wrapped in an if to check that it hasn't already been set) as the first thing in my index.php file (which every script runs through). Then, I have a pageLoad event in javaScript that posts back to a different script on the server that gets the session varaible time and subtracts it from the current time. This gives you the time it took for the request to hit your server, process, respond, and render.
just make sure you unset the session variable in the script you post back to so that the next time the page loads it sets a new session variable (as one doesn't exist because we unset it) and starts all over again. The only thing you may want to do is find the time the ajax took to request the server and subtract that, but it should be milliseconds.

A: • Figure out how many bits you are transferring.
(this converter helps: http://www.matisse.net/bitcalc/)
• Estimate or determine download speed
(you can use this thing: http://speedtest.net)
• divide

A: tl;dr
Use a headless browser to measure the loading times. One example of doing so is Website Loading Time.
Long version
I ran into the same challenges you're running into, so I created a side-project to measure actual loading times. It uses Node and Nightmare to manipulate a headless ("invisible") web browser. Once all of the resources are loaded, it reports the number of milliseconds it took to fully load the page.
One nice feature that would be useful for you is that it loads the webpage repeatedly. So, you could load the page multiple times and then average the values for a nice, round value. Also, since this script runs on the command-line, it's trivial to install on different machines and get actual loading times from various locations. (Load time depends not just on the server, but also the client and intermediaries)
Example usage:
website-loading-time rinogo$ node website-loading-time.js https://google.com
1657
967
1179
1005
1084
1076

On Thursday James from Fargo, ND set a COMC.com record by placing one order that spanned 16 different sellers. He only had to pay $20 for shipping because we house all of the cards on the site and we do all the shipping at once.
Here are a couple of the cards that were purchased.
This entry was posted in Seller Stats, sports cards, website stats. Bookmark the permalink.
He paid $20 in shipping for 16 cards? Were they all purchased at the same time? I thought it should cost $2 + $ .20 per card, making it $5.20 shipping.
Good question. I didn't mention how many cards were purchased. I just mentioned that the cards were spread amongst 16 different sellers. James happened to purchase 90 cards. That was why the shipping was $20.

Just one block southwest at Young's Spring on Upham Brook, slaves often congregated on weekends to hold religious services and social gatherings. This is where Gabriel, a slave of William Prosser, planned the slave rebellion scheduled for 30 August 1800. Gabriel and his followers plotted to capture Richmond and to demand their freedom. The attack never took place because a turbulent thunderstorm made roads and bridges to the city impassable. Governor James Monroe, learning of the plot, mustered the militia. Eventually, most of the conspirators were captured and twenty-six slaves were executed.

Home / Indies / Konnan reveals that WWE attempted to buy the AAA lucha libre organization in Mexico
Konnan reveals that WWE attempted to buy the AAA lucha libre organization in Mexico
By David Buckler on September 4, 2013
Source: Gerweck.net
On this week's episode of MLW Radio, hosted by AAA booker Konnan, former WWE creative executive Court Bauer and MSL, the trio discuss a variety of topics, including the time WWE attempted to buy the AAA lucha libre organization in Mexico. Bauer, a former member of the WWE inner circle, spoke about WWE's plans for international expansion in 2007:
"They went in there [Mexico] with big, big ambitious plans a few years ago. They wanted to do a lot of business down in Mexico and then obviously those plans scaled back and they haven't run in two or so years down there."
Konnan, AAA's matchmaker, offered an inside perspective on what took place during the negotiations between
WWE and AAA:
"I know exactly what happened because we had to live through it. We had a meeting. I've never talked about this. We had somebody from WWE actually come and having a meeting with me and Dorian, who is the son of the owner. We had a meeting with somebody from WWE and they came and offered to buy AAA. He was really cool. He was like, 'We want to buy AAA.' Dorian was like, 'We're not really for sale, but we'll listen.'"
"They wanted to buy 51% of the company. I was like, 'Dude, do not do that because these [guys], the minute they don't like something, they're going to get rid of us.' I said why doesn't Vince just buy 50% or 49%? They said Vince doesn't like to go into partnership with anybody and doesn't want to be asking for permission for anything. I asked what would happen to us. They said, 'As you can see, we're having trouble running WWE as it is and we're trying to expand into Europe. We don't really know what we're doing in Mexico, so you guys would stay in power.'"
"We excused ourselves to go to the bathroom and I said that's BS. The minute we do something they don't like, they're going to change it and there's nothing we can do about it. We can't give them this type of power, which he understood. He told them we wouldn't sell that much of the company."
The new episode of MLW Radio is available for free at www.MLW.com and on iTunes (search: MLW Radio), along with episodes featuring Chris Jericho, The Ultimate Warrior, Mick Foley, Billy Corgan, MVP, former WWE writers and many others. New episodes of MLW Radio are released each and every Sunday night on MLW.com.
