Biden mulls reversing Trump rules on western grouse species

BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — The Biden administration on Friday said it will consider new measures to protect greater sage grouse, a bird species once found across much of the U.S. West that has suffered drastic declines in recent decades due to oil and gas drilling, grazing, wildfires and other pressures.
The announcement of a range-wide evaluation of habitat plans for greater sage grouse came after the Trump administration tried to scale back conservation efforts adopted when Biden was vice president in 2015.
A federal court blocked Trump's changes. But Biden administration officials said the attempt set back conservation efforts — even as the chicken-sized bird's habitat was further ravaged by wildfires, invasive plants and continued development.
Disagreement over the region's sage grouse is longstanding and often bitter, and any new restrictions the administration adopts against energy or agriculture is sure to further inflame tensions. Republican-run states and industries that profit off public lands have clashed with wildlife advocates over how much space the birds need to survive.
Many environmentalists insisted that the 2015 conservation plans didn't go far enough because of loopholes that allowed grazing and drilling on land that sage grouse need. Opponents said they hobbled economic progress.
Biologists say wide buffers from drilling and other activities are needed to protect sage grouse breeding areas where birds engage in elaborate annual mating rituals.
Bureau of Land Management Deputy Director Nada Culver said "everything's on the table" as the agency launches its evaluation of sage grouse habitat, with no set deadlines for action.
"From changes to the buffers, to how we manage energy development, to how we manage every other activity....we are evaluating it and we are looking for input on what are the most important things to look at," Culver said.
Officials also will look at how climate change is adding to pressures on sage grouse. Culver pointed to data showing wildfires burned almost 10,700 square miles (28,000 square kilometers) of the bird's habitat since 2016. The vast majority of the fires were on federal lands.
Greater sage grouse once numbered in the millions across all or portions of 11 Western states. Populations have dropped 65% since 1986, government scientists recently concluded.
In 2010, wildlife officials said drastic habitat losses meant protections for sage grouse had become warranted for under the Endangered Species Act. However, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service did not take any action at the time, saying other species took priority.
In 2015, the wildlife service determined protections were no longer needed after other federal and states officials adopted sweeping land management plans meant to halt or reverse the species' decline.
The plans were billed as a compromise, but some components unraveled after Trump took office in 2017 and states sought changes to the documents that critics said would hurt grouse.
The quirky birds with long tail feathers are known for elaborate courtship displays in which males puff up air sacs in their chests to make an odd popping sound.
Montana Democratic Sen. Jon Tester said he believed land bureau director Tracy Stone-Manning — a former aide to the lawmaker — would pursue a collaborative, balanced approach that will keep sage grouse from becoming an endangered species.
But Western Republicans — including Montana's Gov. Greg Gianforte and Sen. Steve Daines and Wyoming's Gov. Mark Gordon and Sen. Cynthia Lummis — criticized the Biden administration action. They said states should be given deference to manage wildlife and federal lands kept open for energy exploration and grazing.
"Wyoming knows how to manage the greater sage grouse, and I'm very concerned that greater federal control will do nothing for the birds, but be devastating for ranchers and energy producers," said Lummis.
Gordon noted that Wyoming has more sage grouse than any other state and said "no changes are necessary."
Daines said state and local conservation efforts needs to be protected from "federal overreach," while Brooke Stroyke, a spokesperson for Gianforte, said Montana already has a plan that balances conservation and rural economies.
In May, federal officials in response to a court order said that they would consider bans on new mining to help the birds.
A ban proposed under former President Barack Obama was dropped by the Trump administration. The affected lands totaled 10 million acres (4 million hectares) in Idaho, Nevada, Montana, Oregon, Utah and Wyoming.
The land bureau has resumed that process. It will consider the original proposal and additional options, spokesperson Alyse Sharpe said.
The order to take a new look at mining came in a lawsuit from environmentalists. The judge faulted the Trump administration for ignoring prior science on the issue.
Erik Molvar with plaintiff Western Watersheds Project said falling back on the Obama-era plans would not work, because they allowed too much disturbance of sage brush habitat, he said.
"The Obama administration did their best to please all the different ends of the political spectrum. But in the end they didn't please anybody and they didn't give the sage grouse the habitat they needed," Molvar said.
Kathleen Sgamma with the Western Energy Alliance, a group representing oil and gas companies, said Friday's move by the administration came as no surprise.
"Sage grouse has been a political football for decades," she said. "The back and forth continues."

We Will be Judged by our Ability to Accept Defeat
ALICE VON HILDEBRAND
The Dallas Morning News
I wonder whether former President Bill Clinton has ever given a speech without mentioning "the American Dream." The dream to which Mr. Clinton has referred is the hope nourished by thousands of immigrants to escape from misery by being given a chance to "succeed."
To many people, success means to become rich. No doubt, the United States is the one country in the world where this dream can most easily be realized. Refugees from foreign countries can, by dint of hard work, courage, and perseverance, become millionaires. If a person succeeds, he becomes a hero: big money gives its possessor an aura of glory.
Mr. Clinton fulfilled his ultimate ambition: to become president of the United States. Millions of people look up to him and would be honored to shake his hand. Who he is as a person becomes irrelevant. Flaws of character are put into brackets as soon as one has become rich and powerful.
My concern is not with those who succeed. We all know that success is something very few can stomach without harm. My concern is with the underdogs, those who try and fail. We easily forget that for one winner, there are thousands of "losers."
At the U.S. Open tennis tournament, for example, there are 256 contestants. After two weeks, all of them have suffered defeat except two.
To win is pleasant; to be be defeated is bitter. Yet most of us are defeated. Most people respond to defeat with bitterness, resentment, rage, envy, and discouragement. I know people who are "broken" because they flunked an exam, because they were fired from their jobs, because their books were turned down by publishers.
Last year in France a "loser" randomly shot at members of the town council where he lived. He justified his action, telling friends and family members that he had always failed and wanted to take revenge on society. Then he committed suicide. His vindictive feelings were gratified.
But we all know people who suffer severe defeats and who do not allow losses to defeat them. One only need read the Epistles of St. Paul to realize how many defeats he suffered, how often he was abandoned and even betrayed by "false brothers," how often he faced death, how often "he was pressed beyond measure above our strength." But through his trusting in God's grace, every one of these trials was transformed into victory. I do not know of a single saint who has not mastered the "holy chemistry" of changing a defeat into a victory for God.
All of us have suffered defeats. All of us know the bitterness of failing, of being humiliated, of being looked down upon, of being rejected, of having a physical appearance which is not to our taste. Yet, God's message to us is that the humble acceptance of a defeat is the greatest victory: the victory over self.
It is true that most of our earthly dreams of success and happiness will not be realized. But if we truly understand the message of the Gospel, our response can only be joy and hope. Because, supernaturally speaking, to humbly accept human defeats is to achieve a supreme victory.
Many saints were not handsome. One of St. Francis's brothers once asked him why everyone was following him, saying, "for you are not a handsome man." To be told that we are not good looking is not pleasant. St. Francis, instead of being offended, rejoiced because he knew that God chooses little ones and makes them instruments of his peace.
To humbly accept our intellectual limitations (there are not many geniuses) is not only wise, but also a sign of intelligence.
Humility is the best protection against talking nonsense, and achieving that humility is quite a feat.
Some of the greatest errors manufactured by the human mind have been "invented" by so-called geniuses (regretfully, some were university professors) who thought they knew everything.
In eternity, we shall not be rewarded for our earthly successes. We shall be rewarded for our humble acceptance of earthly defeats.
We should pray for what I shall call "holy imagination," which will—with God's grace—teach us to change every single defeat into a victory. This is the Christian message.

I just started eating Paleo again after 3 months off (Aug-Nov) but have been eating Paleo since February 2012. When I say off, I mean really off. I was eating all sorts of bad food. A typical day of food now includes 2-3 pastured eggs, sauerkraut, and a veggie for breakfast sometimes with a 1/2-1 cup of bone broth. Lunch is usually 4-6 oz. of meat with vegetables and a fat such as avocado. For snacks I'll usually eat either macadamias, some deli meat slices, olives, fruit, etc. Dinner is again meat with vegetables and fat. I take fermented cod liver oil/butter oil blend and I'm on exogenous hormone birth control (have been for about 6 years). As for exercise, I go to CrossFit three to four times a week and on weekends usually take my dog for a 45 minute hike in the park. I also work in NYC so I walk around as much as possible. Sleep is not great, on a good night I'll get 7-8 hours but usually I'm around 6-7 and it's not very restful as the rest of my household likes to watch TV until the wee hours of the morning. I have to wake up at 5am for work and usually do not get into bed until about 9:30 or 10pm. That will be ending as of May however, when I go back to school. Not sure if this is important but I've also started to cut out beauty products containing chemicals (a la Cave Girl Eats). I'm now washing my hair with BS and ACV, washing my face with the oil immersion technique and am expecting my oil based soaps from gfsoap.com to arrive today.


NASHVILLE, TN - The House Public Health Subcommittee today voted to kill HB0662, a bill introduced by Representative Bruce Griffey (R-Griffey) that sought to deny birth certificates to children born in Tennessee to undocumented parents. An amendment added to the bill would have required doctors, nurses, and hospitals to verify the immigration status of every parent whose baby is born in Tennessee.
The bill was defeated by a vote of four to three with Representatives Dixie (D-Nashville), Miller (D-Memphis), Terry (R-Murfreesboro), and Whitson (R-Franklin) opposing the bill and Representatives Hill, Van Huss (R-Jonesborough), and Sexton (R-Bean Station) supporting.
The Tennessee Department of Health and Tennessee Hospital Association opposed the bill as amended.
Only one remains alive: HB1239, which would create the second harshest barriers to employment in the country, was passed to House Calendar & Rules.
"We applaud the committee's decision to reject this cruel and extreme proposal. This legislation served no purpose other than to send an unwelcoming message to thousands of new Tennesseans and their families.

Robert Baden-Powell (1857-1941) was a military officer who helped protect Britain's imperial empire for over 30 years. He was especially talented in military scouting. Baden-Powell was a prolific writer who often chose his military experiences as the subjects of his works. He is best known for starting a worldwide scouting movement.
Robert Baden-Powell was born Robert Stephenson Smyth Powell on February 22, 1857 in his parents' house in London, England. His father, Professor H.G. Baden Powell was a vicar and a professor of natural science. His mother, Henrietta Smyth, was Professor Baden Powell's third wife. The couple had seven living children together, of whom Robert was the fifth, and they also raised three children from the vicar's previous marriage. Baden-Powell's father died just after his last child was born, when Robert was only three years old. In 1869 Henrietta changed the family name to Baden-Powell out of respect for her late husband.
Mrs. Baden-Powell educated her children in the outdoors. Through long walks in the country, she taught them about plants and animals. They were also allowed to read books from their father's collection on natural history. Baden-Powell's formal education started with a Dame's School in Kensington Square. In 1868 he attended the Rose Hill School in Tunbridge Wells, where his father was also educated. Two years later he won a scholarship to the Charterhouse School in London. In 1872 the school moved to Godalming, which was surrounded by woodlands known as "The Copse." The wilderness was an important part of Baden-Powell's childhood experience. As a schoolboy, he did not excel either academically or athletically. He was mainly interested in the outdoors and theater.
Joined the Army
By 1876 Baden-Powell had to decide upon a career. He was denied admittance to Balliol College in Oxford, where two of his older brothers had attended. Without much forethought, Baden-Powell decided to participate in an open examination for an army commission. Of the 700 people who took the exam, he finished second for cavalry and fourth for infantry. On September 11, 1876 Baden-Powell became a sub-lieutenant in the thirteenth Hussars. On December 6 of the same year, he joined his regiment in Bombay, India.
Baden-Powell took his new profession seriously and excelled in the military. He became a captain at the young age of 26. In 1884 his regiment returned to England for two years. During this time he published a book called Reconnaissance and Scouting. He also worked as a spy, traveling to Germany, Austria, and Russia to learn about their latest technological and military advances. In 1887 Baden-Powell's uncle, General Henry Smyth, was appointed governor and commander-in-chief of South Africa. He asked his nephew to be part of his staff. Baden-Powell participated in several non-combative missions with the Zulu and, in recognition, was promoted to brevet-major. In 1889 General Sir Henry Smyth was sent to Malta as governor and commander-in-chief and he again took his nephew as part of his staff. However, Baden-Powell was anxious for combat and, therefore, resigned from his position as military secretary in Malta in 1893 and rejoined the thirteenth Hussars in Ireland.
In 1895 Baden-Powell was sent to command a campaign against the Ashanti, whose king had broken British treaties. He thought he would have an opportunity for military action, but in the end there was no fighting. Due to his success on this mission he was promoted to brevet-lieutenant-colonel at the age of 39. Despite the honor of the promotion, Baden-Powell was disappointed that he had not yet had any combat experience in the military. He thought this was the key to having his own command in Africa. Based on his experiences with the Ashanti, Baden-Powell published a book called The Downfall of Prempeh in 1896. In 1889 he wrote his next book called Pigsticking or Hog Hunting about boar hunting.
Baden-Powell was next sent to deal with the Matabele Rebellion in the African nation of Rhodesia, as the chief of staff of Major-General Sir Frederick Carrington. Since there was not a corps of scouts available for this mission, Baden-Powell conducted his own scouting trips to learn about the terrain and the people. He would later publish his experiences in a book called The Matabele Campaign. Baden-Powell cited the adventure as a crucial learning experience in the ways of scouting.
After returning home from Africa, Baden-Powell was offered command of the Fifth Dragoon Guards back in India. He dedicated much of his position to training the troops in tracking and surveillance techniques. In 1899 he published Aids to Scouting, which was intended for the military, but had also gained surprising interest among the general public. In the same year, the commander-in-chief of the British army sent Baden-Powell back to South Africa to deal with an expected war between the British and the Boers.
Became a Hero
The Boer War was a bloody struggle between English-speaking and Afrikaans-speaking whites for control of South Africa's mineral wealth—the world's richest gold reefs. While the chief of the British army, Lord Wolseley, wanted to send 10,000 troops to South Africa, the British cabinet disagreed and instead sent 20 special service officers to organize a defense of the frontiers, one of whom was Baden-Powell. He was assigned to raise a small regiment to protect Rhodesia and to deceive the Boers into thinking that more British forces were on the way. The Boers surrounded Baden-Powell and his men in Mafeking, a small town about 175 miles west of Johannesburg. Baden-Powell managed to defend the town against over 7,000 Boers for 217 days. Some viewed this as the first real victory for the British against the Boers and Baden-Powell was considered a hero.
Mafeking was an important experience for Baden-Powell in two respects. First, he finally experienced real military action that he had desired for so long. The experience also gave him the respect of the military he was looking for and the recognition as a leader. He was promoted to the rank of major general because of his success with this mission. Second, Mafeking was the beginning of Baden-Powell's idea for boy scouts. Because the men were busy protecting the city, Baden-Powell organized the boys into a Mafeking Cadet Corps to take care of the smaller tasks around town. Mafeking became the subject of a 1907 book by Baden-Powell called Sketches in Mafeking and East Africa. In 1900 Baden-Powell was appointed head of the newly created South African Constabulary, a military police force, for three years. He was named inspector general of the cavalry from 1903 until 1907.
Founded Scouting
It was during this last appointment that Baden-Powell really began to develop his ideas about the scouting movement. In 1904 he attended the Annual Drill Inspection and Review of the Boys Brigade in Glasgow, where the founder, William Smith, had recruited over 54,000 boys. Smith had asked Baden-Powell to rewrite his book Aids to Scouting for a younger audience. According to Michael Rosenthal in The Character Factory, this gave Baden-Powell "the vision of a British society made strong by legions of well-disciplined, morally upright, patriotic youth who found their satisfaction in defending the interests of the empire and following the orders of their superiors."
Since Baden-Powell was still occupied as inspector general of the cavalry, it took a few years to put his ideas into action. In 1906 he wrote a short paper called "Scouting for Boys," where he put some of his ideas into print. His vision for scouting was strongly influenced by three of his contemporaries, William Smith, Ernest Thompson Seton, and Dan Beard. Seton and Beard had started similar youth organizations in the United States. This small paper turned into a six-part series called Scouting for Boys, which was published between January and March of 1908. The series included the first publication of the Scout Oath and Scout Law. This series then led to an official weekly magazine, called The Scout, which increased the visibility and appeal of the scouting movement in the public's eye.
In the summer of 1907 Baden-Powell acted upon his ideas and ran a demonstration camp for boys on Brownsea Island off the coast of Dorset. Twenty-two boys, from ages 10 to 17, took part in the weeklong exercise, which consisted of camping, cooking, tracking, singing, and storytelling. This was the beginning of what was called "unquestionably the most significant youth movement of the twentieth century " in Michael Rosenthal's The Character Factory.
Created an International Movement
In 1910 Baden-Powell resigned from the Army and became the chairperson of the Executing Committee of the scouting movement. This movement quickly spread to other countries. Baden-Powell traveled extensively to promote scouting, including trips to South America, Russia, Canada, and the West Indies. Interest in the movement was not limited to boys. By 1910 over 8,000 girls had registered with the scouts. Baden-Powell convinced his sister, Agnes Baden-Powell, to organize the girls into their own movement, which he called the Girl Guides. In 1912 Robert and Agnes Baden-Powell published the Handbook for Girl Guides. In the same year, the Boy Scout Association was granted a charter of incorporation.
In 1912 Baden-Powell met his future wife, Olave St. Clair Soames, on a voyage to the West Indies. The couple was married on October 30, 1912 and went on to have three children together: Peter (1913), Heather (1915), and Betty (1917). His wife was a strong supporter of the continuing development of the scouting movement.
In 1914 Baden-Powell created the Wolf Cubs for younger boys aged 9 to 12. During World War I he published several books including Quick Training for War, The Adventures of a Spy, Young Knights of the Empire, and The Wolf Cub's Handbook. After the war he created a third group of scouts for older boys (over the age of 16) called the Rover Scouts. In 1920 Baden-Powell organized the first International Jamboree in London. He wanted a special event to celebrate the tenth anniversary of scouting. According to Tim Jeal in the book Baden-Powell, the chief scout wrote that the goal of the Jamboree was "to make our ideals and methods more widely known abroad; to promote the spirit of brotherhood among the rising generation throughout the world, thereby giving the spirit that is necessary to make the League of Nations a living force."
Baden-Powell spent the later years of his life travelling and supporting the movement. He continued to write throughout his life with such books as Birds and Beasts in Africa (1938), Paddle Your Own Canoe (1939), and More Sketches of Kenya (1940). Baden-Powell died on January 8, 1941 and was buried at Nyeri in view of Mount Kenya.
The legacy of Baden-Powell lies in the popularity of the scouting movement throughout the world. However, its founder has also faced his share of criticism. In 1999 Baden-Powell's character came under attack when the Barolong-Boora-Tshidi Tribal Authority of South Africa sued the British government for millions of dollars in compensation for his alleged mistreatment of blacks during the Mafeking Siege. Despite this problem, the scouting movement has continued to grow. By the year 2000 there were over 25 million members in more than 216 countries.

Franz Herber (* 2. Juni 1908 in Berlin; † 3. März 1996 in Wittlich) war ein deutscher Offizier im nationalsozialistischen Deutschland. Er war innerhalb des Bendlerblocks maßgeblich an der Niederschlagung des Umsturzversuchs vom 20. Juli 1944 beteiligt.

Leben
Herber wurde 1935 von der Landespolizei Berlin in die Reichswehr übernommen.

Im November 1938 wurde er auf die Kriegsakademie befohlen und von 1941 an diente er im Generalstab des Heeres. Zum 1. November 1941 erfolgte die Ernennung zum Major, zum 1. Februar 1943 zum Oberstleutnant i. G. Zum April 1943 trat Herber die Leitung der Quartiermeisterabteilung des Allgemeinen Heeresamts im Bendlerblock an. Am 29. Mai 1944 war Herber mit Claus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg für eine Rücksprache mit Adolf Hitler nach Berchtesgaden gereist. Die gemeinsame Rückreise nach Berlin erfolgte am 8. Juni 1944.

Am Abend des 20. Juli 1944 war er der dienstälteste Offizier unter denjenigen, die sich angesichts widersprüchlicher Angaben zunächst abwartend verhielten, dann aber zur offenen Unterstützung des NS-Regimes übergingen. Zudem hatte Herber durch seine Funktion Zugriff auf die Waffenkammern des Bendlerblocks. Er rüstete einen Trupp Offiziere mit Waffen aus, die am späten Abend die zentralen Träger der Verschwörung festnahmen.

Seine wesentlichen Unterstützer waren die Oberstleutnante Bolko von der Heyde und Karl Pridun. Alle drei wurden am 20. Oktober 1944 rückwirkend zum 1. August des Jahres zu Obersten befördert. Herber erhielt zudem das Eiserne Kreuz I. Klasse.

10 Of The Best Songs About Atlanta: The Big Peach Playlist
Atlanta is known for many things: its southern hospitality, world-renowned cuisine, and rich history. But music is one of the most significant aspects of life in The Big Peach. From soulful gospel hymns to chart-topping rap songs, Atlanta has a rich musical heritage that is celebrated in many genres.
In this post, we've put together a playlist of 10 of the best songs about Atlanta. Whether you're from there or just visiting, these songs will give you a taste of what makes Atlanta so special. Let's get started!
1. "Welcome to Atlanta" by Jermaine Dupri and Ludacris
Atlanta is the hometown of Jermaine Dupri and Ludacris, so they provide listeners with a window into the real, day-to-day life in the city.
Since its release in 2002, "Welcome to Atlanta" reached number three on the US Hot Rap Songs and number seven on the US Rhythmic Billboard charts and has become a hymn for those who are part of this community.
With these lyrics, Jermaine Dupri and Ludacris depict the social reality and atmosphere of Atlanta. They sing, "See gangsters roamin' / And parties don't stop 'til eight in the mo'nin'."
In 2018, the rappers reunited and released a remixed version of this song for the local football team, "The Atlanta Falcons," of which both are huge fans.
2. "Oh Atlanta" by Little Feat
"Oh Atlanta" was the first single released of Little Feat's fourth album titled Feats Don't Fail Me Now. It was one of their most popular songs, and the album itself sold more than 500,000 copies.
Little Feat branched out with "Oh Atlanta." In this song, listeners will hear their keyboard player, Bill Payne, singing lead vocals.
When songwriter Ben Fong-Torres writes, "I got to feel that Georgia sun … where the music plays all night / They got the boogie band blowin' that's bound for hell", he expresses the beauties of Atlanta and his wish to be there.
3. "FILA" by Lil Scrappy
Lil Scrappy praises his hometown of Atlanta with "FILA (Forever I Love Atlanta)." This song shows that Atlanta holds a really special place in Lil Scrappy's heart. He sings, "Martin Luther King from the A, so I love my home" and "hell yeah, I'm proud."
He also sings of his fond memories in Atlanta with lines like "reminiscin' on crunk years / It's the city of crunk where I shed my tears."
This rap song has a laid-back beat. Turn it up in the car and feel your speakers shake.
4. "Oh, Atlanta" by Bad Company
Bad Company, an English rock band most popular during the 1970s, released "Oh, Atlanta" in 1996.
The song features a narrator reminiscing about his time in Atlanta. He recalls his favorite things about the city with lines like "All the crazy days and crazy nights / Country music playing," and he claims he will be returning to Georgia.
Bad Company expresses their longing for Atlanta in the tone of their vocals. The listener can hear them crying out for the city they miss.
5. "Elevators" by Outkast
Outkast released "Elevators" in 1996, and it climbed to number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100. This single even reached number one on the US Hot Rap Tracks chart, and it has been certified gold.
In "Elevators," the hip hop duo shares their rise to fame, which started at Headland and Delowe in Atlanta. They sing of how they were "Writing rhymes, tryna find our spot off in that light."
Outkast also expresses their struggle with making ends meet with lines like, "But we are not making no G's and that's a no-no" and I live by the beat like you live check-to-check."
6. "Ride Wit Me" by TI
"Ride Wit Me" was a promotional single that came out before T.I. released his fourth album titled King. The album was number one on the Billboard 200 and sold 522,000 copies within the first week.
In this song, T.I. tells of how he is from the "Westside of the A-town." The song revolves around TI driving around his hometown.
He sings: "We gone swing by Simpson Road… We gone ride down Bankhead… See me riding through Atlanta in a Phantom with the double door."
TI invites listeners along for a ride down memory lane in "Ride Wit Me."
7. "Dirty South" by Goodie Mob
As a band based out of Atlanta, Goodie Mob knows the ins and outs of the city. "Dirty South" is a track from their album titled Soul Food, which was released in 1995. The album was number eight on the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums Billboard chart. It was certified gold in the US.
Goodie Mob describes the drug community in Atlanta during "Dirty South." They tell of the variety of drugs available when they sing, "See powder gets you hyper, reefa makes you calm / Cigarettes give you cancer, woo woo's make you dumb."
This song also refers to slavery and the education system's approach to this topic with the line, "So in the 3rd grade this is what you told / You was bought, you were sold".
"Dirty South" explores serious issues in the south, but it is still a fun sing-along.
8. "New Atlanta" by Migos
Migos is a trio of men raised together in the suburbs of Atlanta. They discuss their fame and attempt to stay down to earth when they sing, "We don't f*ck with cameras out here, I'm for real."
However, they also remember their struggle with rising to fame. Migos sings, "Do you remember my teachers said we wouldn't make it? / I gotta thank y'all / Atlanta made us famous".
This is a classic 'zero to hero' story for aspiring young people in Atlanta.
9. "Hot 'Lanta" by Allman Brothers
"Hot 'Lanta" is a nickname for the city of Atlanta. The Allman Brothers, an American rock band formed in 1969, performed this instrumental piece and released it in 1971.
The song is only available on their live albums, and it debuted on At Fillmore East. There are featured solos throughout the song played on the organ and guitars, plus a drum duet. "Hot 'Lanta" combines jazz-rock and progressive rock music.
Despite the lack of vocals, the Allman Brothers keep listeners engaged throughout this tune.
10. "Love Shack" by B-52's
The B-52's are an American new wave band. In the middle of the 1980s, they were struggling to maintain popularity after their guitarist died. Luckily, "Love Shack" was just the comeback that the band needed, and it is now considered their signature song.
A cabin near Athens, Georgia inspired the B-52's to write this song. They sing about their love for this hang-out spot with lines like, "Just a funky old shack and I gotta get back … The Love Shack is a little old place where we can get together."
"Love Shack" is a feel-good, upbeat song for car rides with friends.
Summing Up Our List Of Atlanta Songs
Atlanta, Georgia, is well-known as the starting point of the Civil Rights movement. Many people of color call Atlanta home. Several of the artists listed above remember the struggle of growing up in adversity and proving themselves to their hometown.
Additionally, Atlanta is warm most of the year, cultivating a party atmosphere that draws people into the city.
Whether you are on a road trip to Atlanta or dreaming of the warm Atlanta weather, turn up these tunes and enjoy the feel-good vibes.

Wanted Dutch/Indo WWII Veterans who are still among us ! Please share !
In the context of 75 years of liberation in 2019/2020, we are still making an ultimate attempt to find living WWII Dutch/Indo veterans at home and abroad who are still entitled to a military honor!
(during forced labor on the railway lines, shipyards or in the Japanese mines) and not have been rewarded with a War Remembrance Cross or Mobilization War Cross.
In addition, men who served between 1945 and 1951 in the Dutch East Indies and did not rewarded with the "Ereteken for Order and Peace".
How can you help us ? Share this message within your network as much as possible and help !
Help get a water filtration system to earthquake ravaged Palu!
Palu in Indonesia just experienced a devastating 7.4-magnitude earthquake, which was followed by a horrific tsunami. This event has claimed at least 1,300 lives, this number is increasing by the day and has left countless others injured and without resources. Infrastructure and housing have been leveled. People are without shelter and struggling to obtain essentials such as food and clean drinking water. The collapse of the infrastructure has caused water sources to be unavailable or contaminated.
In an effort to help get clean water to the survivors, SoCal Indo is working hard to raise funds to purchase a water filtration system. The installation of this system will allow clean water to be available on demand.
We understand that many might be financially fatigued from helping to raise funds for Lombok. We are so appreciative for your help with that initiative. To our horror, another catastrophe has occurred, and people desperately need help. We are asking for everyone to donate just $2.50 to get this filtration system installed. If everyone in our Indo groups were to help – we could quickly meet the goal of $7,000 which is all that is required to make this happen.
We at SoCal Indo are so inspired by the support that is found within our Indo community. The Indonesian Diaspora Foundation will receive the donations and they will make sure it gets to the right authorities in Sulawesi. Please share this message and help to raise awareness while strengthening our unity.

Chinese APT suspected of supply chain attack on Mongolian government agencies
Chinese hackers have compromised the update mechanism of a chat app used by hundreds of Mongolian government agencies.

A Chinese state-sponsored hacking group, also known as an APT, is suspected of having breached a Mongolian software company and compromised a chat app used by hundreds of Mongolian government agencies.
The best antivirus software and apps
A roundup of the best software and apps for Windows and Mac computers, as well as iOS and Android devices, to keep yourself safe from malware and viruses.
The attack is believed to have taken place earlier this year, in June, according to a report published today by Slovak security firm ESET.
The hackers targeted an app called Able Desktop, developed by a local company named Able Software. According to the company's website, the app is an add-on that provides instant messaging capabilities to the company's main product, a human resources management (HRM) platform.
Able Software claims its platform is used by more than 430 Mongolian government agencies, including the Office of the President, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Health, various local law enforcement agencies, and many local governments.
Software abused by hackers since at least 2018
ESET says that because of its widespread use among government workers, the app has been at the center of several malware distribution efforts since at least 2018.
Initial attacks revolved around adding malware to the Able Desktop chat app and spreading a trojanized version of the app's installer via email, hoping to trick employees into infecting themselves.
Payloads in these attacks included the HyperBro backdoor and the PlugX remote access trojan.
But while these attacks were successful, ESET says that things changed in June 2020, when the attackers appear to have found a way inside Able's backend and compromised the system that delivers software updates to all Able software app.
ESET researchers say attackers abused this system on at least two occasions to deliver a malware-laced Able Desktop chat app through the official update mechanism.
For these attacks, the intruders again delivered the HyperBro backdoor, but they changed from PlugX to Tmanager as the remote access component.
Image: ESET
At the time of writing, it is unclear if the attackers used the compromised Able update feature to install malware on all the systems they could reach or if they only went after selected targets.
Beyond notifying Able Software, ESET was unable to provide such details.
Furthermore, ESET wasn't able to pinpoint the attack on a particular group, as all the malware strains used in the attacks had been previously used by different China-linked APTs, such as LuckyMouse and TA428, but also to a collection of server infrastructure known as ShadowPad — itself linked to many more other Chinese APTs like CactusPete, TICK, IceFog, KeyBoy, and the umbrella group Winnti.
ESET believes these groups are either collaborating, using the same tools, or are subgroups part of a larger threat actor that controls their operations and targeting.
Besides the ESET report, cyber-security firm Avast also published its own report on these attacks, also linking the perpetrators back to China and classifying the attacks as cyber-espionage.

The cycling population waited, heart in mouth, during the women's Olympic road race – just as anxious to hear the outcome for injured rider Annemiek van Vleuten as the name of the eventual winner.
Van Vleuten's Rio crash looked horrific – but only 10 days later, she was back on the bike.
Come the spring Classics of 2017, van Vleuten was showing signs of good form to come – tying for third in the Amstel Gold Race and one step off the podium at the Flèche Wallonne.
Throughout 2017, van Vleuten excelled when it came to time trials. At the Giro Rosa in May, she won both stage two and the deceptively hill stage five ITT – which, though flat in the rider handbook, contained inclines over 20 per cent. Her final position was third overall.
Carrying form into June, the Dutch rider attacked both stages of the La Course women's stage race that accompanies the Tour de France.
On stage one, a 67.5km race which finished atop of the Col d'Izoard, van Vleuten attacked within the final 5km, leaving clear tarmac between herself and Lizzie Deignan (Boels Dolmans) who had been previously setting the pace.
Van Vleuten's pace was such that only the winners of the replicating men's stage were able to beat her time on Strava – only stage winner Warren Barguil and second place overall Romain Bardet were ahead of her average speed.
Going into the second day of La Course, a handicap race which saw riders released on to the road in their finishing order from stage one, van Vleuten time trialled away from Deignan who held back to team up with Elisa Longo-Borghini (Wiggle High5) and Megan Guarnier (Boels Dolmans) and ultimately finished 1-52 adrift.
Van Vleuten took her first UCI World Championship title in September, winning the time trial and clearing second place winner and compatriot Anna van der Breggen by 12.16 seconds – her own time was 28-50.35 over the 21.1-kilometre course.
High finishes all year meant that van Vleuten clinched second overall in the UCI Women's WorldTour standings, with 989 points to countrywoman van der Breggen's 1016.

I'll be flying these banners at the Sci-fi Expo.
Hey everyone! Another convention has snuck into my life reminding me that I need to reach out to you all and let you all know that I have a table at the upcoming convention is Dallas's Sci-Fi Expo! I had so, SO much fun at the Fan Days Star Wars Convention that I decided to do another before the big Dallas Comic Con of 2012 occurs.
The Sci-fi Expo will be located at the Irving Convention Center who's address is 500 W Las Colinas Blvd Irving , TX (At intersection of 114 and NW Highway). General admission is $15.00. Parking at the Convention hall is $5.00. The show dates are February 11-12, 2012 (Saturday 11:00AM - 6:00PM & Sunday 11:00AM - 4:00PM).
Now, I'm guessing that you are going to the show to see the stars and starlets of television. You may even have plans to get a couple of issues signed by the Comic Book industry's best, but I ask that you please, please (Don't make me beg) go to see the small press peeps in artist alley. We need your fanly support! Seriously, we need the fan's support. We need you buy from us and keep the projects you love to read rolling! And that's an honest to gosh, Boy Scout honor truth!
If you do go, and you do go and help support the little man, then please, please stop by my table to visit. If you want (knock on wood) you will buy a couple of art pieces, or prints, or comics from me. I know that this request seems a bit much. It's almost like I'm begging, and to tell the truth, I am (rather shamelessly). You see, I'll be there alone, and I need the company. Both Rob and Jordan, who are usually there with me, won't be attending due to busy schedules, so I will need you, the fan, to help keep me sane whilst I am there (I'm actually kidding about keeping me sane...or am I).
Posters and Prints available at the Sci-Fi Expo from my Booth.
What will I have to sell? I'll tell you. I'll have the Cowboy Clone Trooper pin-ups. They are going to be $5. I have about 50 of them left. Once they are all sold, then that's it! I will not print anymore. Also, I'll have 11x17" posters there of Sarah the Pin-up girl, Miranda Fly Girl, and Power Meal Rangers. They will be $15 each. I will have 20 of Sarah, 18 of the Rangers and 10 of Miranda. Oh, and I'll sign them for FREE! I'll also have a small stack of Xenex issues 1-3 and the Giant Sized issue of Unstoppable Force. Xenex issues will be $4 per issue or $10.00 for all three and get a Xenex 11" X 17" poster! I'll also have color sheet artwork of sci-fi characters like the FanDays show back in October. Prices will vary on them. If you are interested, I'll also have my other artwork out on display. Prices on those will vary too. If you are interested in a piece, just ask me.
Books for Unstoppable Force and Xenex the Bug Man will be available at my booth.
And of coarse I will have free magnets and postcards for those who want them.
Come by and say hello. If anything, come by and get some free stuff from me. So clear your schedule and plan to be in Irving the weekend of the 11th and 12th of February 2012!

Every 65 minutes an American veteran commits suicide. That's right, more than 8,000 veterans a year die at their own hands. Last week's featured speaker at the Rotary Club of Glenwood Springs was Adam McCabe. McCabe is co-founder of Purple Star Veterans and Families and a board member of Huts for Vets.
McCabe, hands down, was one of the most moving and passionate speakers I remember in my 20-plus years as a Rotarian. As a show of hands at the meeting demonstrated, nearly everyone knows a veteran. But not everyone knows the demons many of our vets fight daily.
Why doesn't the military provide the same training to re-enter life after the trauma of fighting for our county? Now we know that a VA hospital in Phoenix allegedly covered up deaths of veterans who were on a wait list for care. Good grief!
McCabe and his organization are pushing the government to begin providing therapy prior to furloughing our military personnel. In the meantime, his organization is providing hut trips and a cognitive behavioral therapist to help those suffering with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Typically a group of 12 vets at a cost of $10,000 go out on the trip. Donations can be made at hutsforvets.org.
It isn't just the veteran who suffers but also the family and others in the community. I know firsthand. My dad was a World War II vet who suffered with PTSD. Dad was in Patton's 3rd Army. He was part of the Normandy invasion and was on the front lines in Europe way too long. He was awarded two Purple Hearts and later in life a Bronze Star due to the length of time on the front line, although they did not heal his wounds.
While not diagnosed back than, he had all of the symptoms of PTSD, including alcoholism and a codependent personality that caused a great deal of pain in our family. Despite all of that, deep down he was a great man whom I loved dearly.
In his early '80s he came to live with me in Breckenridge. Suffering from Parkinson's disease and the side effects, which caused him to drift in and out of reality, I finally got a better picture of the mental anguish he suffered over the years. Top that off with blindness and other ailments, he was a bit of a physical and mental mess, and I am so happy to have been able to spend that summer with him.
He would have night terrors going back to the horrors of war, screaming out in the middle of the night. I learned from my mom that had been common throughout their marriage. I didn't know. One day I found him at the base of the bed with his oxygen tube around his neck. Dad tried to hang himself from the bedpost. This was one time I was happy he did not have his wits about him, as the bedpost wasn't high enough for him to do the deed.
As a result of a challenging childhood, I too have been diagnosed with PTSD, which is not uncommon for children of vets. So Adam's talk hit home — and quite frankly tore me apart as the terrible memories I had buried deeply away came flooding back.
Our veterans deserve more and I appreciate the work Adam, a veteran himself, is doing for his brothers and sisters. I encourage you to give your time or money to help our vets in their well-deserved recovery right here in our backyard.

Improving UK support for breastfeeding – using a river metaphor
I was very pleased to have the opportunity at the 9 May iHV conference to present the broad findings of the World Breastfeeding Trends Initiative (WBTi) 2016 UK assessment of the state of support for breastfeeding, using the metaphor of a river. The WBTi UK Steering Group is keen to raise awareness of its 2016 report so that the findings can be used locally and nationally for change. National Breastfeeding Celebration Week provides an opportunity to be proud of what has been achieved but it is also important to be mindful of what still needs improving in supporting and protecting breastfeeding.
Any efforts to improve a situation require a thorough assessment of the current situation first. A WBTi assessment considers ten policy and programme indicators, drawn from the 2003 WHO Global Strategy on Infant and Young Child Feeding. Each indicator is scored on how well it is implemented, and gaps and recommendations are identified. The Steering Group collaborates with a core group of representatives of relevant organisations, such as professional organisations, charities and government departments, to achieve consensus on the various elements of the report. Nearly 100 countries have carried out this process so far.
Indicator name UK score out of 10
1 National policy, programme and coordination 1
2 Baby Friendly Initiative 7.5
3 Implementation of the International Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes 6
4 Maternity Protection 6.5
5 Healthcare systems (primarily health professional
training) 5.5
6 Community-based support 7
7 Information support 5.5
8 Infant feeding and HIV 6.5
9 Infant feeding during emergencies 0
10 Monitoring and evaluation system 5
In the metaphor, the mother's breastfeeding journey is represented by stepping stones across the river. The stepping stones stand for the people who provide the mother with direct support, such as family and friends, midwives, maternity support workers, health visitors, peer supporters, breastfeeding counsellors, and lactation consultants. The Health Visitor's role is crucial as the service is universal and she can both signpost as well as give direct support.
The river itself is the flow of intermingling influences on the mother's infant feeding decisions – these start in her infancy at the head of the river and include the later factors categorised as the WBTi indicators. A dam represents the legal protections – in the UK these include protection from formula advertising for babies under 6 months (Indicator 3) and maternity leave and protected breastfeeding/ expressing rights at work (Indicator 5).
The riverbanks represent other Indicators, such as the extent of national leadership (Indicator 1), health professional training (Indicator 5) and data collection on breastfeeding rates (Indicator 10). A weak riverbank that looks stable is particularly risky and is like a trusted health professional with inadequate knowledge and skills.
Strengthening the dam and riverbanks would mean that the mother is much less likely to be knocked off the stepping stones, so much more likely to achieve her breastfeeding goals. To have greatest impact, there needs to be concurrent improvement on the different Indicators, otherwise there will still be too great a flow of negative influences over the stepping stones.

Q: Why (and how) is Python rounding this math equation? def findDistance():
    first_coord = raw_input("Enter first coordinate set (format x, y): ").split(",")
    second_coord = raw_input("Enter second coordinate set (format x, y): ").split(",")

    x1 = float(first_coord[0])
    x2 = float(second_coord[0])
    y1 = float(first_coord[1])
    y2 = float(first_coord[1])

    print math.sqrt(float(((x2 - x1) * (x2 - x1))) + float(((y2 - y1) * (y2 - y1))))

Putting in the series (10, 12), (12, 10) gives me 2.0, when the actual distance (rounded somewhat) is 2.82842. It appears Python is flooring my number. Why and how is this happening?

A: Copy&paste error.  The line
y2 = float(first_coord[1])

should be
y2 = float(second_coord[1])

Of course the result is also rounded to IEEE double precision, but the reason the result is that far off is the above mistake.

Although the article is from last year, my son noticed that our Australian Cattle Dog / Blue Heeler made the top 12 mens' dogs list in Men's Journal magazine (Below – Sept 4, 2009 p.56). There is certainly some accuracy to the characteristics, although I'm not sure how well our dog would do on a sailboat – Tootsie has feared water ever since she fell through the ice as a pup.
Still for 13 years old, I don't think one could find a more energetic beast. If I'm not careful when running her around the yard, I'm convinced she would injury herself before slowing down. As for 'nipping' … they don't call them "heelers" for nothing … but it would be nice if ours knew the difference between livestock heels, tractor tires and little kids who love to run around in bare feet! Potential owners be warned … it's not easy to train out such an instinct.
In the comments below, I particularly liked the "fell off a sailboat and survived four months eating baby goats." I could see that happening.

William Robert Hague, connu sous le nom de Billy Hague (né le  à Londres en Angleterre — mort le ) est un joueur professionnel canadien de hockey sur glace qui évoluait au poste de gardien de but. Il remporte la Coupe Stanley en 1906 avec les Sénateurs d'Ottawa.

Biographie
Hague joue son premier match de hockey sur glace en jouant dans la ligue de hockey d'Ottawa avec les Emmets d'Ottawa. Il remplace Dave Finnie au poste de gardien de but pour les Sénateurs d'Ottawa en 1905. En , l'équipe relève le défi lancé par l'équipe de Smiths Falls et s'impose lors des deux rencontres. Une semaine plus tard, l'équipe joue les séries éliminatoires et après une défaite sur le score de 9-1 lors du premier match contre les Wanderers de Montréal, l'équipe décide de remplacer Hague par le gardien de Smiths Falls. Ainsi le gardien anglais est remplacé dans les buts par Percy LeSueur.

Hague rejoint les rangs des Victorias d'Ottawa pour la saison 1906-1907. En 1908, il participe à un défi lancé par son équipe aux Wanderers mais les Victorias perdent les deux rencontres. Par la suite, il joue avec l'équipe des Professionnels de Galt de l' qui joue un défi en 1911 contre Ottawa, une nouvelle défaite pour Hague 7-4.

Il joue un dernier défi au cours de la saison suivante : il évolue alors avec les Victorias de Moncton qui perdent contre les Bulldogs de Québec. Hague jouera par la suite avec les Socials de Halifax puis avec les Wanderers de Montréal dans l'Association nationale de hockey. Il met fin à sa carrière en 1916-1917.

Man steals Girl Scouts' cookie money, runs over DC mom
By Bob D'Angelo, Cox Media Group National Content Desk
A woman in Washington, D.C., said a man stole at least $1,500 of her two daughters' Girl Scouts cookie money and ran her over with a stolen car when she tried to stop him.
Traci Brown told police she and her three daughters were doing brisk business when two customers approached to buy the cookies, using one $100 bill and one $50 bill, WJLA reported.
According to Brown, when she retrieved a money bag from her minivan to make change, a man grabbed the money, the television station reported. As Brown wrestled with the man to get the money, she was knocked down. The thief allegedly got into a white Hyundai and ran her over as he made his getaway.
A DC woman says she was run over by a car while trying to stop robbery of @girlscouts
She says within seconds of retrieving a money bag to make change and stashing it inside her minivan, a thief had the money.

"I was like, 'Oh my God.' So I tried to grab him by his dreadlocks, and they slipped out of my hands," Brown told WJLA. "So I ran around the front of my car and tried to, unfortunately, foolishly, take the money from him."
The woman was not injured but the money is gone, the television station reported. When she reported the theft and the vehicle's tag number to police, they told her the vehicle had been stolen several moments earlier when a driver left it running outside a convenience store.
"The kids shouldn't be seeing stuff like that, and no one should be stealing from the Girl Scouts," Brown told WJLA. "This is a charitable organization. It's not even me or my money."

Our traditional Shipwreck Auction and Fish 'n' Chip tea will be held on the evening of Thursday 6 May and following on from the popularity of our trip to Port Chalmers last year we are planning another excursion this year for Friday evening. We will also be holding our 'Women in Industry' breakfast on Friday morning and our friends from Port Nelson Fishermen's Association have something different planned for this event. We will also have our annual sponsored Partner Programme during the day on Friday.
We are setting up our website so that members can register and pay for the Conference and AGM on line. This facility will be available to members who have log-in username and passwords by the begining of March 2010. If you do not have a username and password then please contact Pete Dawson on pete@fishcon.net and he will issue you with a temporary password to enable you to access the site and change your password to one of your own choice.
We have a great range of topics and speakers in our conference programme and we are confident that this year will be as successful as last year was. We have also arranged for a FISHSAFE Workshop to precede the Conference on Wednesday 5 May 2010. Please let Pete Dawson know if you wish to participate in this FREE workshop.
