NBC News deletes tweet with activist quote comparing migrants in Martha's Vineyard to 'trash'
Robie Le Chat September 16, 2022 7 min read
NBC News deleted a tweet containing a quote that compared migrants sent to Martha's Vineyard to "trash" in an attempt to criticize Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. The quote came from Max Lefeld, a Venezuelan-American and immigrant activist. "It's like me taking my trash out and just driving to different areas where I live and just throwing my trash there," he said.
NBC News deleted a tweet containing a quote that compared migrants sent to Martha's Vineyard to "trash" in an attempt to criticize Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. The quote came from Max Lefeld, a Venezuelan-American and immigrant activist.
"It's like me taking my trash out and just driving to different areas where I live and just throwing my trash there," he said.
Ironically, Lefeld is also a founding member of the Casa Venezuela Dallas foundation, a charity that helps refugees.
NBC posted the quote in a tweet with a link to its article, but deleted the tweet after receiving criticism online.
"You can rip on DeSantis about a lot of things but man did he make baiting these fools into making terrible analogies look effortless," read one response.
"Did you…did they call these human beings 'trash'?" responded author Amelia Hamilton.
"Remember, kids: when these people reveal, even inadvertently or without self-awareness, who they really are and what they really think, you should believe them," read another response.
The article went on to detail that DeSantis faced criticism for what many on the left called a political stunt, but he also received praise from many who said the policy highlighted the massive problem of illegal immigration at the border.
DeSantis confirmed on Wednesday that he had sent two planes full of migrants, mostly from Venezuela, to the vacation resort island famous for its residents, the Obamas. Critics on the left have called it worse than the Holocaust and accused DeSantis of being a totalitarian dictator after unconfirmed reports that some migrants were deceived about the services and jobs they might be getting on the Island.
Others went so far as to accuse him of human trafficking, but his defenders pointed out that President Joe Biden, a Democrat, had also relocated migrants to various cities in the United States to alleviate the growing migrant crisis.
Officials on the island scrambled to find the migrants shelter and other services. On Friday, the migrants were bused out of the island to Joint Base Cape Cod where a shelter was set up for them by the Republican Gov. Charlie Baker.

The moment of respite comes after Martha's Vineyard declared an emergency over their arrival earlier this week and called in the National Guard
Despite the backlash for flying a group of 50 migrants to Martha's Vineyard this week, the immigrants are reportedly grateful to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
Telemundo's Cristina Londoño Rooney told MSNBC that while immigration activists claim the migrants have been 'used as pawns' and 'abused' by DeSantis, the group of Venesuelans were actually happy to be brought up north.
'I can tell you, they're not angry at Ron DeSantis,' Rooney said on Thursday after speaking with some of the migrants. 'They are actually thanking him for having brought them to Martha's Vineyard.'
'Other people are saying they're being used as political pawns, but they don't resent it for now,' She added. 'They know they're the lucky ones.'
Although the migrants received a cold welcome in Martha's Vineyard with the city declaring a state of emergency and calling in the Nation Guard to move them, the group eventually reached the Cape Cod military base, where they received shelter and a warm meal.

Border Patrol Chief in El Paso addresses migrant concerns from law enforcement, lawmakers

"Right now, the Border Patrol is getting about 1,300 migrants a day and the city of El Paso is getting further behind"
EL PASO, Texas (KFOX14) — The Border Patrol continues to make adjustments to the way it's responding to the surge of asylum seekers.
For days, some of the arriving migrants have been sleeping in the streets in downtown El Paso.
On Friday, the size of the encampment looked smaller.
El Paso Sector Border Patrol Chief, Gloria Chavez, said agents didn't release any migrants into the streets.
Chavez said the Border Patrol is making changes to the way it's handing this latest surge while they deal with a harsh reality.
"As the chief of the Border Patrol in this region, I don't want to release people into the community. That is something that is not ok with us," Chavez said. "The reality is that my central processing center is at capacity. I am holding right now, 2,700 people in a facility that is authorize to hold 1,040.
She explained the overflow lot is holding 500 people who are waiting to be processed at the moment.
The area where migrants are turning themselves in under the bridge are automatically placed in Border Patrol custody.
Medical services, water and food are available at the staging point under the bridge.
During the intake, agents review fingerprints, photograph migrants for biometrics.
"We want to know who they are. If we have any criminals within these groups coming in, they are not going to be released into that community," Chavez said.
Congressman Tony Gonzales, who represents a portion of El Paso, shared his concerns about the surge.
"Right now, the Border Patrol is getting about 1,300 migrants a day and the city of El Paso is getting further behind," Gonzales said.
Gonzales said a handful of Border Patrol agents are not able to patrol the border due to the time spent processing migrants.
"On any shift, in El Paso, you have about eight Border Patrol agents in the field. Everyone else is processing. Essentially, there is nobody out in the field to cover this. Meanwhile there is no end in sight," Gonzales said.
Chavez said she's still able to deploy agents to areas that won't impact the border security severely.
"Will it be like this tomorrow? I don't know. Will it be like this in a month? We'll see," Chavez said. "I still have my checkpoints operational. I'm still operating with agents patrolling Santa Teresa, New Mexico, which is my second busiest station in the region."
RECOMMENDED: El Paso County Sheriff raises concerns over minimal or no screening for some migrants
El Paso County Sheriff Richard Wiles sounded the alarm about some migrants not being processed on Thursday.
Wiles said his deputies attempted to take five undocumented immigrants to multiple Border Patrol stations, but were advised they could not respond due to staffing issues.
"I saw that yesterday evening. It's new to me. Today we are looking into it. If we did in fact have something like that take place, I want to make sure we clear it up and that we arrange a situation or coordination so that doesn't happen again," Chavez said.
As Texas Governor Greg Abbott has sent several buses with migrants to New York City and Washington D.C., Florida Governor Ron De Santis sent migrants to Martha's Vineyard, in Massachusetts.
"When you look at the motivation by Gov. Abbott, De Santis, there is a maliciousness there. They want to dehumanize the migrants. I hope the city does this, but you have to coordinate with the recipient city," said Rep. Veronica Escobar.
El Paso congressman Tony Gonzales said he is also against the governor's bus program but for different reasons.
"It's now a word of mouth. Folks are now saying 'if you go to El Paso they will bus you to Chicago. All it's doing it's encouraging more of the chaos," said Rep. Gonzales. "It's not solving anything. It's just making it worst."
Congress has not taken any significant action on immigration in nearly 30 years. And there doesn't seem to be any clear consensus on how to move forward.
When it comes to current immigration law, a former Republican lawmaker says congress should start by focusing specifically on asylum law.

Helping our K-12 Education System Advance Toward a More Equitable Future
A Conversation with Dr. Carissa Moffat Miller, CEO of the Council of Chief State School Officers
"There are far better things ahead than any we leave behind."
— C.S. Lewis
That quote from British author C.S. Lewis inspires me about many things in life, but it's especially relevant as I think about the future of our K-12 education system.
For me, that future is one where an equitable system ensures that all students are equipped to succeed in college or career with agency over their lives and opportunities for economic mobility and prosperity — particularly students in low-income communities and Black and Latino students who often face systemic barriers that prevent them from achieving their ambitions.
As I shared in a previous post, I believe in the resiliency of our K-12 system and its ability to reinvent itself for the better. Despite the disruptions caused by the pandemic, I'm convinced that far better days are ahead.
Those disruptions led to herculean efforts from teachers, school staff, school district officials, and state education leaders to keep our students on the path to success. We're already seeing signs of recovery with over 99 percent of K-12 students now learning in person.
Yet, unfinished learning, which the World Bank estimates could cost this generation of students worldwide $17 trillion in lifetime earnings, teacher burnout with 55 percent of educators saying they will leave the profession sooner than they had planned, and the emotional and mental health needs of students remain to be resolved.
State education officials are tackling these recovery issues with the help of the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO), a nationwide, nonprofit, nonpartisan organization guiding those leaders through the impactful and equitable use of federal recovery funds for schools. CCSSO is also a grantee and partner of the foundation.
To learn more about this state-level work, I had a conversation with Dr. Carissa Moffat Miller, Chief Executive Officer of CCSSO, and I encourage you to read about it below. Carissa's insights shed light on how state education officials are advancing our K-12 system toward a more equitable future and using this moment in time to not only put in place recovery efforts but approaches to strengthen education for the long-term and put students on a positive trajectory.
Allan: Thanks so much for speaking with me, Carissa. To dive right in, no part of our K-12 education system was spared from the incredible disruption caused by the pandemic. Students, teachers, school leaders, and others are still experiencing burnout and trauma. What are you hearing from your members about steps state leaders are taking towards an equitable recovery in K-12 education, and what are some existing and new challenges that have emerged?
Carissa: I want to acknowledge that I don't think we're post-pandemic. It's going to be something we're grappling with for quite a while. The things that we did that first year or even the first six months evolved into the next six months. I told the chiefs they made history. They had to figure out a playbook when there wasn't one. There was no history we could rely on. That's the same for teachers, district leaders, and everybody in the education system with what they've done.
We are still managing health testing protocols, school operations, and fluctuating conditions. We just hosted our legislative conference and one of the things that came out is that recovery from crisis is about getting back to the point where we were, but that's not enough. We want to do more than that. We're seeing chiefs use rescue plan dollars to provide better opportunities to get students on track, even students who were struggling before the pandemic. That's what I'm hopeful about. Our chiefs are still dealing with some of the immediacy issues but are having a lot of conversations about innovation, improvement, and what we can use dollars for to look toward the future.
Allan: You mentioned the federal relief funds states are receiving to address the impact of the pandemic. What bright spots are you seeing in innovation, modernization of systems, and reinvention in state recovery plans?
Carissa: What I'm seeing is a focus on how we sustain those future benefits. Thinking back to when the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act ended, we saw a lot of the good curtailed. I'm encouraged about the things states are putting into place that can be long-term sustained efforts. States like Tennessee, Missouri, and Maryland are using federal funds to do "grow-your-own" programs that ease costs for high school students or paraprofessionals to enter the teaching profession. Those are things that states are also investing in and putting in programs.
North Dakota is using some of its funds to support $10,000 in teacher-led projects every three months to integrate new instructional strategies. Those new strategies and methods are things that can live on beyond what we're seeing.
With the instructional materials and professional development network that CCSSO runs with a variety of states, we're seeing the integration of those high-quality instructional materials in platforms states use to distribute to districts. Rhode Island is using that to implement its new state reading law. We're seeing high dosage tutoring in Oklahoma open to all eighth-grade students for algebra readiness. There is a lot of conversation now about how we address middle school math issues, which is a huge priority.
There are summer programs I find interesting. There is one in New Hampshire that helps students from low-income families with the financial resources to go to recreation camp. The New Hampshire Department of Education did this in coordination with camps and school-age summer programs. These partnerships will withstand the test of time.
Allan: That's so true – the new partnerships forged through this pandemic carry enormous potential. Speaking of keeping students on a learning path despite disruptions, education after high school is critical for economic mobility, yet there are over one million fewer students enrolled in college today than before the pandemic began. As we think beyond the K-12 experience, what approaches should states be considering to ensure that students don't lose momentum through their transition from high school to college?
Carissa: We are the pathway from K-12 to higher education and care about that, and I've seen the numbers. As a parent of a college student, I've seen the struggle with connectedness on campus. It's unachievable for so many. When I think about affordability for college, it's not something we address, but what are ways our system can make it more possible.
I look at the apprenticeship program that Tennessee has gotten approved for teaching. It's the first in the nation, a statewide program modeled after a "grow-your-own" program in Fresno, California. It captures both students and people who are paraprofessionals and need to be able to make a living while they are doing this.
Missouri is placing more trained advisors and counselors in high schools in rural areas to provide individualized college and career support. As someone who came from a graduating class of 19 people, I know how important my counselor was. My parents didn't go to college, and my counselor had to help navigate that for me. Those positions are critical in K-12.
Oklahoma is using federal funds to provide additional opportunities to retake the ACT, SAT, and PSAT — if those are admissions requirements — so students can do better. These are just a few examples of ways K-12 plays a role, but we all could certainly do more.
Allan: If you were to look ahead three-to-five years from now, what would you say a successful recovery in K-12 education looks like?
Carissa: I think about what we learned from the pandemic about time and how to use time more efficiently. I find myself being impatient about certain things that used to take much longer when we can get them done in a shorter time. That is a lot of what we learned in education. How do we find different pathways for students to reach their competencies? That was one of the most incredible things done by teachers, and they should both get credit for it and get the latitude to keep doing those things.
Snapping back into systems that had boundaries on the way we get students to competencies is one of the things we have to fight against because there will be a tendency to want to move back to that.
Fundamentally, our goal is to have an education system that focuses on student-specific needs, provides high-quality education, and is able to leverage all that technology that we came to rely on in the pandemic and make it more modernized and equitable. I don't think we ever shoot too high. These are our kids and the generation that follows us. The more we invest in this and the more we do, the better off everyone will be.
Allan: I agree. What are some other ways that philanthropies like the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and others can be supportive of states' efforts around innovation and equity in K-12 education moving forward?
Carissa: The role of philanthropy to me is research, innovation, and an accelerant. It's looking at an idea and saying, "How can we move this faster and how do we scale things that would take us much longer to do?" There isn't one best way to do something, but if we know the end goal, we have an opportunity to build different pathways to get to that goal. There are multiple ways we can provide high-quality materials for students. There are multiple ways to figure out how to assess students and understand where they need to be. That accelerant that philanthropy provides is incredibly valuable to our system, and we are grateful that it allows us to be able to support states.
Allan: One final question about the health of leadership in education. How are people doing, having navigated all of this?
Carissa: People are tired and are looking toward a summer break to recharge. But we've learned a lot about the time spent with each other, which goes back to my point about maximizing our time. People want to spend time with their colleagues talking about things, but it's also an opportunity to have health and well-being. Some of those things we might have taken for granted or thought were a luxury really are a necessity.
We have tried to provide a variety of opportunities where chiefs can connect or have a safe space. We do Wednesday calls and sometimes chiefs get on and just need to know that someone else out there is dealing with that. That sometimes can be just what they need. In our role and the ecosystem, it's all our responsibility to provide that kind of structure and support for the individuals you're talking about because everybody is still fatigued and wants to look toward the horizon but needs that bolstering.
Allan: Carissa, thank you for the time together, and thank you for your leadership and partnership. We deeply appreciate all the work that you are doing and the perspectives you have shared.
Carissa: Thank you, Allan. I appreciate it.
The Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) is a nonpartisan, nationwide, nonprofit organization of public officials who head departments of elementary and secondary education in the states, the District of Columbia, the Department of Defense Education Activity, the Bureau of Indian Education and the five U.S. extra-state jurisdictions. CCSSO is committed to ensuring that all students participating in our public education system -- regardless of background -- graduate prepared for college, careers, and life.
CCSSO is a grantee and partner of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
From one challenge to another, Florida education leaders forging ahead for students
The summer after the nationwide move to remote learning in March 2020, Impact Florida brought together academic leaders from four Florida districts to ask what they were most concerned about, heading back into a school year none of us had envisioned.
What We're Learning: Building an Equitable System for Postsecondary Education Transition Success
To enhance the well-being of individuals and communities, it is critical for all students — particularly those currently most marginalized — to advance their education and training after high school, whether to a four-year institution, vocational training, or another program that meets the student's needs.
Building Equity in Education
For those of you who don't know me, I've had the honor of serving as the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation's teaching fellow over the past year. During that time, I have had the opportunity to reflect on the many rich conversations we've had at Teacher Advisory Council (TAC) working sessions.

C-RAN prové del mot anglès Cloud Radio Acces Network. És una nova arquitectura de xarxa que s'aplica en les xarxes de telefonia mòbil.
Consisteix que part de la computació que actualment es dona a les estacions base passi a fer-se en centres de càlcul (al núvol).

Problemàtica
Actualment vivim en un món on és essencial la comunicació a través de la telefonia mòbil entre les persones. Per poder fer possible aquesta realitat s'han anat construint antenes telefòniques arreu del territori per donar cobertura en les diferents àrees. Ara però, no només es necessita la connexió telefònica sense fils que permet fer trucades sinó que els consumidors requereixen tenir connexió a internet i que aquesta cada vegada sigui més ràpida.
Per aquesta raó força sovint (cada 2 o 3 anys) sorgeixen noves tecnologies de transmissió sense fils de dades 2G, 3G, 4G,...
Per poder fer front a aquests canvis és necessari fer canvis profunds en aquestes antenes especialment en la part maquinari per poder incloure les noves tecnologies que van sorgint.
Això provoca que el maquinari especialitzat i car no arribi a amortitzar els costos des de la seva instal·lació fins al seu reemplaçament.
Es pot resumir de manera general 5 tasques principals que desenvolupen les antenes actuals. D'aquestes 5 les 2 primeres normalment no requereixen modificació de maquinari en fer un canvi de tecnologia mentre que les 3 restants sí.

No requereixen reemplaçament en canvi de tecnologia:
 Recepció i enviament de dades: Quan un dispositiu pretén connectar-se amb un altre independentment de si és a través d'una trucada convencional o per intercanviar dades a través d'internet, les antenes s'encarreguen de rebre les dades i enviar les dades altres antenes, transmetre-ho a un altre medi (cable), altres dispositius,...
 Descodificació i Codificació de dades: L'antena ha de ser capaç de descodificar les dades que rep dels dispositius, altres antenes, dades d'altres medis i tornar-les a codificar per transmetre-les novament.

Requereixen reemplaçament en canvi de tecnologia:
 Assignació de canals: Quan un dispositiu es connecta per primera vegada a una antena (normalment quan s'encén) se li assigna una banda de freqüència que està reservada a aquest dispositiu i que possibilita poder enviar i rebre dades sempre per la mateixa freqüència. Normalment, per saber quin canal s'ha d'assignar, es requereix l'execució d'un algoritme complex per saber quines freqüències resten lliures no només en la mateixa antena sinó també en les pròximes. És necessari fer aquest algoritme per permetre la migració del canal en diferents antenes.
 Migració de canals: Quan s'ha assignat un canal (rang de freqüències) a un dispositiu l'antena ha d'oferir la possibilitat de migrar el canal en cas que el dispositiu s'estigui movent per diverses regions on l'antena inicial no ofereix cobertura sense que es talli la comunicació.
 Geolocalització: A més a més dels serveis esmentats les antenes també ofereixen la possibilitat de conèixer la localització del dispositiu amb el qual té connexió de manera menys precisa que amb GPS.

Solució
Ja que hi ha una part de les tasques que no necessiten actualització, la solució implica deixar en cada antena la part de maquinari necessària per implementar la recepció, enviament, codificació i descodificació de dades.
Per altra banda, s'aplica C-RAN en les 3 tasques que sí que requereixen actualització en canvi de tecnologia.
Per passar del maquinari específic que hi havia inicialment en cada antena a maquinari general d'un centre de processament de dades s'utilitza virtualització, ja que permet simular maquinari específic en hardware genèric mitjançant programari.

Millores
 Reducció de despesa maquinari en estacions base: a causa de l'aplicació de C-RAN el canvi de tecnologia ja no suposa un reemplaçament de maquinari. A més a més el maquinari de les antenes és molt més simple i agilitza la detecció d'errors.
 Actualitzacions programari: En lloc de reemplaçar el maquinari existent això es pot solucionar mitjançant una actualització programari sobre el maquinari genèric utilitzat.
 Menys despesa energètica: centralitzar en un mateix lloc la computació permet l'estalvi d'energia, ja que segons demanada es pot ajustar el consum segons demanda.
 Més computació i flexibilitat: Com que la computació es produeix al núvol (CPD) és fàcil iniciar o tancar màquines en cas de requerir més o menys computació. Això permet una major flexibilitat i tolerància en casos de pics de connexions per exemple en esdeveniments esportius o manifestacions de manera que la xarxa pot fer front afegint nodes de computació dinàmicament.
 Reducció d'impacte visual i ambiental: en reduir el maquinari és més fàcil reduir les antenes i integrar-les de manera més dissimulada a l'interior de ciutats.

Noves problemàtiques
Connexió entre antenes i CPD: tot i la desaparició del problema de computació perquè se centralitza apareix el requeriment d'alta connexió entre l'antena i el CPD. En la implementació de la solució és fàcil que es trobin colls d'ampolla on hi ha una reducció dràstica en la velocitat de connexió per l'agregació de dades o en cas d'haver de crear una línia dedicada requereix un al cost d'instal·lació.

Light Radio
Producte que implementa la solució C-RAN amb la col·laboració de les empreses: Etisalat, China Mobile, América Móvil i Alcatel-Lucent.
L'objectiu d'aquest programa és crear una antena modular de dimensions tan reduïdes perquè cabés al palmell de la mà. Evidentment una antena de les utilitzades porta més mòduls que n'augmenten les dimensions però encara hi ha una gran diferència entre les solucions implementades i les antenes actuals.
Actualment es troba en fase de proves per l'empresa Movistar Barcelona i se'n preveu el llançament al mercat durant el 2016.

BOSTON (CBS) – The aviation business is big in Massachusetts and getting bigger at the state's 29 public-use airports.
The Massachusetts Department of Transportation economic impact study update completed in 2014 showed that $16.6 billion was added to the state's economy in aviation-related activities.
The total payroll was estimated at $6.1 billion representing more than 162,000 jobs.
Nine regional airports are listed as commercial in the study.
JetBlue flies into six of these airports and Cape Air has scheduled service to five.
Logan Airport accounts for the largest impact and has shown strong growth in international arrivals and departures in the last two years. The Boston airport has about 132,000 jobs and more than $13 billion of the total $16.6 billion added to the state's economy.
Three new international airlines will start flights from Logan later this year.
Thirty airports are listed handling general aviation accounting for about $170 million added to the state's economy.
Air charter and related maintenance work account for much of the $100 million coming into Massachusetts. With the end of the recession, charter flights are again showing strong growth.
The Bay State is currently home to 37 airport-based flight schools and Bridgewater State has the largest college aviation program in New England.
will be the air show at Westover Air Reserve Base in Chicopee during the weekend of May 16. It will mark the 75th anniversary of the base and feature performances by the Blue Angels flying team.
The military staffs four bases in Massachusetts, home to 18,100 workers and bringing $1.7 billion into the economy.
Hanscom Air Force Base in Bedford accounts for more than half of that activity. Massport runs the general aviation part of that airport.

Klaus Kühlwein (* 29. April 1955 in Viernheim) ist ein deutscher katholischer Theologe und Buchautor.

Leben
Kühlwein studierte Sozialwissenschaft, Philosophie und Theologie in Kiel und Frankfurt am Main und legte 1986 in Freiburg die Zweite Kirchliche Dienstprüfung für das höhere Lehramt ab. 1991 promovierte er bei Rupert Lay und Johannes Beutler an der Jesuitenhochschule St. Georgen über die Bergpredigt. Er ist am Bildungswerk der Erzdiözese Freiburg im Breisgau tätig. Kühlwein forscht schwerpunktmäßig über die Thematik "Katholische Kirche und Nationalsozialismus". Kühlwein ist Mitglied der Görres-Gesellschaft.

Studien über Pius XII.
Zum 50. Todestag von Papst Pius XII. brachte er die Studie: Warum der Papst schwieg (Düsseldorf 2008) heraus. In dieser Studie versucht er die These zu belegen, dass Pius XII. wegen einer fundamentalen ethischen Unsicherheit zum Holocaust geschwiegen habe, nicht wegen Antisemitismus oder Antijudaismus oder Sympathie mit Hitlers Kampf gegen den stalinistischen Bolschewismus oder wegen kircheneigener bzw. persönlicher Interessen. Auch in späteren Publikationen widerspricht Kühlwein scharf den Behauptungen verschiedener Historiker und Autoren, dass Pius XII. als der Retter der Juden Roms angesehen werden müsse, da er durch umsichtige Diplomatie den Abbruch der laufenden Judenrazzia erreichte.

In einer zweiten Studie zum 70. Jahrestag der Judenrazzia erneuerte und vertiefte Kühlwein seine Kritik. Papst Pius habe nicht einmal auf einen Hilferuf untergetauchter Juden reagiert, "obwohl er, wovon Kühlwein überzeugt ist, Gefangennahme und Deportation der Juden nach Auschwitz hätte verhindern können. Er habe sich aber zu sehr in diplomatische Vorsichten und Rücksichten verfangen, die ihn wie eine Zwangsjacke lähmten.". Nach Kühlwein wäre Pius' "schützende Hand … sogar weniger problematisch und riskant gewesen als das folgende Kirchenasyl."

2019 veröffentlichte Kühlwein eine erweiterte Neuauflage der Studie unter dem Titel: "Pius XII. und die Deportation der Juden Roms" (Berlin u. a.). Darin verschärfte er seine Kritik. Während der Razzia und Deportation der römischen Juden hätte Papst Pius "»...hier und jetzt alles in die Waagschale werfen« müssen." Das schloss nach Kühlwein auch das persönliche Erscheinen am römischen Bahnhof Tiburtina ein, wo die Juden am Vormittag des 17. Oktober 1943 in den Transportzug nach Auschwitz verladen wurden. "Pius XII. hat im Oktober 1943 versagt. Er versagte den flehenden römischen Juden seine persönliche Unterstützung und er versagte als moralisches Oberhaupt der katholischen Kirche." Gerald Steinacher schrieb, Kühlweins Studie belege, dass die Retter-These ein Mythos sei und auf "wishful thinking" beruhe.

Des Weiteren übt Kühlwein deutliche Kritik an der güterabwägenden Diplomatie Pius XII. während des 2. Weltkrieges. Besonders bei der Deportation der römischen Juden habe diese Leitlinie dazu gedient, keinen öffentlichen, päpstlichen Protest auszusprechen und vor allem keine rettende Aktivitäten durchzuführen. Selbst eine nur karitative Hilfeleistung für die Gefangenen in den zwei Tagen bis zum Abtransport sei nach diplomatischer Abwägung unterlassen worden. Alternativ zur Güterabwägung hätte Pius auf der Basis der Tugend- bzw. Werteethik entscheiden können, die in der christlich-ethischen Tradition tief verwurzelt sei. Tugendethische Entscheidungen stünden für den Schutz unbedingter Werte ohne konsequentialistisches Kalkül – im Gegensatz zum utilitaristischen Prinzip einer Güterabwägung.

Am Ende der Studie (in der 1. Auflage) veröffentlichte Kühlwein einen Offenen Brief an Papst Franziskus, in dem er diesen bittet, den "im Vatikan unterstützten Mythos über Pius XII. als Retter der Juden während der Razzia" zu beenden. Dieser Mythos verdränge die Wahrheit und verhindere die aussöhnende Erinnerung. Aufgrund seiner Unsicherheit habe Pius XII. entscheidende und tragische Fehler gemacht. Das betrifft vor allem sein zauderndes Verhalten während der SS-Judenrazzia in Rom am 16. Oktober 1943 und das Zulassen der Deportation von über 1000 eingefangenen Juden nach Auschwitz am 18. Oktober.

Kühlwein zählt zu den zeitgenössischen Theologen und Historikern, die deutliche Kritik an Pius XII. formulieren. In einer Erklärung kritisierte Kühlwein die Entscheidung Papst Benedikts XVI. (am 19. Dezember 2009), den "heroischen Tugendgrad" bei seinem umstrittenen Vorgänger Pius XII. anzuerkennen. Das sei eine Festlegung auf die baldige Seligsprechung, die überstürzt und ohne Zeitnot vorgenommen wurde.

Im Rahmen des Gedenkens zum 70. Jahrestag des Kriegsendes (2015) forderte Kühlwein öffentlich von Vatikan ein Schuldbekenntnis für die Diplomatie Pius' XII. In Artikeln in der Frankfurter Rundschau und in der Jüdischen Allgemeinen beklagte er die Weigerung des Vatikans, irgendwelche Fehler angesichts der NS-Judenvernichtung anzuerkennen. Kühlwein wirft Papst Pius vor, dass er die Gewissensfrage, die die Shoah ihm stellte, beiseitegeschoben habe. Anstatt sich prophetisch-mutig vor die Juden zu stellen, habe er eine zweckorientierte Diplomatie verfolgt mit dem Ziel, "Berlin nicht auf die Füße zu treten".

Due to the changes in opportunities to invest in infrastructure sector, infrastructure reforms and changes in the global economy, there has been a positive impact on the Indian economy.

The elder distinguished himself as a physicist, and in 1819 propounded the identity of electricity, magnetism, and galvanism, a discovery for which he received the Copley medal of the Royal Society and an award from the French Institute. He next engaged in experiments as to the compressibility of water, and a year or two later discovered the metal aluminium. His skill in popularising science led to the publication of his lectures in a volume entitled The Soul in Nature. He died in 1851. The younger Oersted adopted the legal profession, which he afterwards combined with politics, becoming in 1853 Prime Minister of Denmark. His reactionary tendencies led to his impeachment, and, though acquitted, he took no further part in public affairs, but died in retirement in 1860.

Collective Voice has responded to a call for evidence by the Health Select Committee, which is starting an inquiry into the way that public health functions are being delivered after the 2013 reforms which transferred responsibility for commissioning services from the NHS to local authorities.
Our submission starts by providing some context for the committee. We point out that:
Illegal drug use has been falling, but it remains a significant public health issue with official government estimates suggesting a million people are dependent on illegal drugs, of which almost a third are dependent on heroin and/or crack.
The rate at which people are dying of drug related deaths has been rising and is now at the highest levels recorded.
The UK remains the largest market for heroin in Europe.
There are an estimated 1.6 million adults dependent on alcohol, of which only 6% access treatment.
Hospital admissions caused by alcohol use run at over 1 million a year, and that problem drinkers visit their GP twice as often as other patients.
There are significant numbers of people in the treatment system with other complex problems, including homelessness, mental ill-health, and contact with the criminal justice system.
Collective Voice members experience is that the potential for greater integration of services that these reforms promised has yet to be delivered. Where integration has been taking place it has largely been to integrate drug and alcohol services rather than to ensure that the wider needs of people who are being treated have all of their needs met. We raise particular concerns about the integration with mental health services, echoed by Professor Liz Hughes, in today's Guardian.
Our submission notes the negative consequences of the increased level of re-commissioning that has taken place since 2013 often in our experience linked to reductions in contract value, despite central government trying to incentivise drug treatment outcomes during the same period. We note that the assessment made by the ACMD that currently treatment for heroin users is under threat.
We argue that drug and alcohol treatment has a strong evidence base that it is cost effective, but that the current financial climate means that the promise of the 2013 reforms are unlikely to be met.
In our view the consequence of the decisions to reduce public health funding will feed through into additional costs falling on other aspects of NHS care, the police and our overcrowded prisons. However the real costs will fall on increasingly vulnerable service users, and the poor communities in which they are concentrated.

Metro GM, Transit Police Chief announce plan to increase patrols on trains, buses
By fox5dc.com staff
WASHINGTON - Metro's General Manager and Transit Police Chief have announced new plans to keep Metro riders safe following a series of violent attacks.
General Manager Paul Wiedefeld and Chief Ron Pavlik say they plan to increase patrols onboard buses, trains and within Metrorail stations, which will result in sharp increases in the number of officers on patrol at certain times of day and provide "additional eyes and ears at key locations."
According to a press release, the following measures will be implemented immediately:
The announcement comes just days after two teens were arrested in connection with the shooting of a man at the Anacostia Metro station, and weeks after a string of violent attacks on Metro involving youths.
"Every Metro rider deserves to be able to travel freely without fear, and we will take all appropriate steps to reassure riders and respond to crime trends," said Chief Pavlik in a statement. "At the General Manager's direction, we will take immediate steps to increase patrols using our existing resources."

Q: Rails how works ApplicationController When i write a Controller Class, it's possible to use methods like:
@article.update(article_params)

The method update comes from the class ActiveRecord::Base :
http://api.rubyonrails.org/v2.3/classes/ActiveRecord/Base.html#M001966
My questions:

*

*How can I use the update method from a Controller class that does not inherit from ActiveRecord::Base? It looks like ApplicationController inherits only from ActionController::Base

*Are there any resources available to read up on this?
Thanks for help, Cheers B

A: Rails follow the MVC architecture. In that architecture, your models interact with the database and your controllers interact with incoming requests (usually by orchestrating some models and then passing those off to some views that render the content). Rails achieves reuse through inheritance, so you can't (and probably wouldn't want to) mix concerns
I recommend checking out the official Rails guides. I think it's some of the best written documentation in the industry:

Saving lives with post-abortion care

Chapter 9: Preventing Deaths from Unsafe Abortion
What makes an abortion safe or unsafe?
Guide community discussions on abortion
Separating facts from misinformation
Challenging the way people talk about abortion
Organizing to make safe abortion available
Abortion done safely by a skilled person rarely causes harm (see What makes an abortion safe or unsafe?). But many abortions are unsafe and lead to serious injuries, infections, and dangerous bleeding. Post-abortion care, also called PAC, is emergency care for these problems.
I didn't know that!
1 Women need emergency care without delay
1.1 ActivityReplay drama: Saving lives after an abortion
2 Danger signs after abortion or miscarriage
3 What to do
4 Supporting a woman after an abortion
Women need emergency care without delay
One of the reasons women die after unsafe abortions is that they or their families wait too long to get help. There are many things a community can do to help or encourage people to seek care without delay.
To learn all the reasons why people in your community are delayed in receiving help for problems after an unsafe abortion, try adapting the discussion guide about the 4 delays.
The following activity, using dramatic stories, can help a group learn about the importance of getting a woman the care she needs quickly if she has any signs of a health problem after an unsafe abortion. It is also a good way for a group to learn more about the danger signs for problems after an abortion and how to help. This is called a "replay drama" because the story is replayed a second time to ask the audience how to save the woman. Also see the activity, "Happy ending" role plays to think about change.
Activity Replay drama: Saving lives after an abortion
To prepare: Create a dramatic situation for each of the danger signs: bleeding, signs of infection, shock, and injury. Make up situations realistic for your community, but do not use names of real people or examples that seem to be about a real person in the community.
Introduce the activity and review with the group the danger signs after an abortion and what to do about them (see the next section for this information).
Form small groups of 3 or 4 people and give each group a situation to dramatize. Explain that they will dramatize the story twice. The first time, the woman will not get help and will die. The second time, the audience will step in to save her. Remind everyone to treat the women in the dramas with kindness and not to use judgmental or hurtful language.
After the drama about each situation, the actors stop and ask the audience, "What should we have done to save her life?"
Perform the dramas a second time but use the group's suggestions to save the women's lives. People in the audience who have ideas can become actors who help carry or treat the woman.
To conclude, ask people what they learned about how to help women with problems after an abortion. You can also ask the group to think about how this could be done in their community.
Our group of health promoters performed the dramas for a group of men because when a woman has an emergency, often it's the men in her family who have the money or make the decision to take her to the hospital.
Take a woman with any of these danger signs to a clinic or hospital right away!
Danger signs after abortion or miscarriage
The 2 most dangerous problems a woman can have after an abortion or miscarriage are bleeding too much and infection. Both of these problems can happen when tissue from the pregnancy is still inside the womb, or when the womb has been torn or punctured by a sharp tool. Infection of the womb can also be caused when something is put in the woman's vagina that was not clean enough (sterilized). A woman with signs of these problems can die quickly if she does not get medical help right away. When people know the danger signs, they will be more ready to help women get the care they need.
When you know the danger signs for each health problem, there are some things you can do while transporting the woman to get medical care.
Heavy bleeding from the vagina: bleeding that soaks more than 2 pads in one hour, and lasts for 2 hours. A slow, steady trickle of bright red blood is also dangerous.
What to do: Help the woman squat and bear down like passing stool. This may help to finish emptying the womb. While transporting the woman, rub her lower belly very hard, just above the pubic bone, while she is lying down or squatting. This may help the womb squeeze itself (contract) and bleed less. See Where Women Have No Doctor.
Signs of infection: fever over 38°C (100.4°F), chills, pain in the belly, bad-smelling discharge from vagina, or weakness.
What to do: Give medicines for womb infection. See Where Women Have No Doctor.
Miscarriage and safe abortion usually do not cause health problems, but after a pregnancy ends for any reason, the danger signs are the same.
Signs of shock: cold, pale, or damp skin; fast breathing (more than 30 breaths a minute); a very fast heartbeat (more than 100 beats a minute); unusual weakness, dizziness or lightheadedness, and even confusion or unconsciousness (fainting).
What to do: Help the woman lie down with her feet higher than her head, cover her with a blanket or clothes, and help her stay calm. If she can drink, give her sips of water or rehydration drink. If she is unconscious, lay her on her side with her head low, tilted back and to one side. Make sure her feet are higher than her head.
Signs of injury inside the body: very bad pain in the belly, especially with movement; belly feels stiff or hard, and you can hear no sounds or gurgles inside; fever, nausea, and vomiting; pain in one or both shoulders.
What to do: Do not give the woman anything by mouth — no food, no drink, not even water — if it will take less than 2 hours to get to a health center, where she might need an operation. If a health center is more than 2 hours away, give water or hydration solution, but do not give solid food, because food in the stomach makes surgery riskier.
The sooner a woman gets help for any of these problems, the greater the possibility of saving her life. To learn more about complications of abortion and what to do, see Where Women Have No Doctor or A Book for Midwives. You can also see Other Resources.
Young women are especially likely to have problems that become serious after an abortion, but we are less likely to know about post-abortion care. We need information and support and to be treated with kindness and respect.
In community meetings to gain support for post-abortion care we discussed the dangers of unsafe abortions, and how this care is not the same as abortion. It took many meetings and discussions to gain the trust of local religious leaders. We began by discussing the benefits of family planning for married couples, and then contraceptive use outside of marriage. This opened the door to discussing unintended pregnancy and the need for emergency care.
Supporting a woman after an abortion
A woman may have strong feelings after an abortion, even if she knows she made the right decision for herself and her family. Some women feel a mixture of relief, sadness, grief, guilt, shame, anger, and even love. It is also common for women to feel sad and grieve when a pregnancy ends because of miscarriage. These feelings are normal, but having to hide them and pretend nothing has happened can make them worse. Many women find it helpful to talk with other women who have had the same experience.
Creating a ritual to reflect on what happened can also help a woman let go of the experience and move on with life. For example, burying or burning an object related to the abortion can symbolize closure. In some communities, a woman may plant a tree or visit a sacred place and make offerings.

North Korea Releases Three US Detainees Ahead of Trump Summit
Farouk Mohammed Follow on Twitter May 9, 2018
US President Donald Trump
President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday that North Korea has freed three American detainees, hailing a diplomatic victory ahead of a planned summit with Kim Jong Un.
Pyongyang granted the three men "amnesty," a US official said, and they are now on their way back to the United States with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
Two of the men, agricultural expert Kim Hak-song and former professor Tony Kim were arrested in 2017, while Kim Dong-chul, a South Korea-born American businessman and pastor in his 60s, was sentenced to 10 years' hard labor in 2016.
"I am pleased to inform you that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is in the air and on his way back from North Korea with the 3 wonderful gentlemen that everyone is looking so forward to meeting. They seem to be in good health," Trump tweeted.
The White House said all three men were able to walk unassisted onto a US Air Force plane that carried them and the secretary of state out of North Korea.
A second plane, with more robust medical equipment, waited for them at Yokota Air Force Base, just outside Tokyo.
"All indications are their health is as good as could be given they been through," said Pompeo.
The family of Tony Kim voiced their gratitude to "all of those who have worked toward and contributed to his return home" — and specifically thanking Trump for "engaging directly with North Korea."
"Mostly, we thank God for Tony's safe return," the family said in a statement. "We ask that you continue to pray for the people of North Korea and for the release of all who are still being held."
Trump meanwhile described the release as "a gesture of good will" and said he would be on hand when Pompeo's three "guests" land at Andrews Air Force Base outside Washington at 2:00 am (0600 GMT)on Thursday.
Trump acolytes declared the release an unbridled political victory, evidence, Vice President Mike Pence said, that "strong leadership and our America First policies are paying dividends."
The men's release appears to pave the way for a much-anticipated summit between Trump and North Korean leader Kim, scheduled to take place within weeks.

Heat and drought adaptive QTL in a wheat population designed to minimize confounding agronomic effects
A restricted range in height and phenology of the elite Seri/Babax recombinant inbred line (RIL) population makes it ideal for physiological and genetic studies. Previous research has shown differential expression for yield under water deficit associated with canopy temperature (CT). In the current study, 167 RILs plus parents were phenotyped under drought (DRT), hot irrigated (HOT), and temperate irrigated (IRR) environments to identify the genomic regions associated with stress-adaptive traits. In total, 104 QTL were identified across a combination of 115 traits × 3 environments × 2 years, of which 14, 16, and 10 QTL were associated exclusively with DRT, HOT, and IRR, respectively. Six genomic regions were related to a large number of traits, namely 1B-a, 2B-a, 3B-b, 4A-a, 4A-b, and 5A-a. A yield QTL located on 4A-a explained 27 and 17% of variation under drought and heat stress, respectively. At the same location, a QTL explained 28% of the variation in CT under heat, while 14% of CT variation under drought was explained by a QTL on 3B-b. The T1BL. 1RS (rye) translocation donated by the Seri parent was associated with decreased yield in this population. There was no co-location of consistent yield and phenology or height-related QTL, highlighting the utility of using a population with a restricted range in anthesis to facilitate QTL studies. Common QTL for drought and heat stress traits were identified on 1B-a, 2B-a, 3B-b, 4A-a, 4B-b, and 7A-a confirming their generic value across stresses. Yield QTL were shown to be associated with components of other traits, supporting the prospects for dissecting crop performance into its physiological and genetic components in order to facilitate a more strategic approach to breeding.

It's been one of those winters in Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula. When we say that, we mean we've had snow, snow and more snow. And just for a little fun, Mother Nature has thrown in some major cold into the mix. Dating back to mid December, the Copper Country has only had a handful of days where the temperature has reached 33 degrees or above.
Polar Vortex anyone? Time to start thinking spring.
The good news for skiers is that the cold is forecasted to slow down starting next week, and the snow? Well, we'll still have it!
Dee's analysis came a week ago, and since then, the snow and cold have continued. The whole thing has provided an interesting challenge at the Swedetown Trails.
Our groomers have been busy, and the reward is a base of snow that's about as good as anyone could ask for. Groomer Pat Szubielak, who is also organizing our third annual Snow Bike Race, said there's no doubt the depth is at least three feet. MacDonald said in the woods it's likely that it's no less than four feet.
Now we're just looking to the forecast to see what Bear Chase weekend will bring. Early indications have high temperatures on race day in the high teens, with the temperature in the 20s the days leading up to the race. Sounds perfect! Register here.
Check back to GreatBearChase.com, and our social media outlets (Twitter – Facebook) for updates as we get closer to the big day!

Killer Mike Reportedly Has Inspired People To Move Over $800K To Citizens Trust Bank In Only Five Days
Killer Mike, in a powerful interview with Atlanta's Hot 97 radio station, offered up a slew of solutions for the ongoing race problems of America. A highly touted quote from that interview was one about economic empowerment. Mike wanted people to start supporting black owned banks by having black folks open up accounts at Citizens Trust, the oldest African-American owned bank in the country.
ÔÇ£We donÔÇÖt have to burn our city down, but what we can do is go to your banks tomorrow. You can go to your banks tomorrow and say until you as a corporation start to speak on our behalf. I want all my money, and IÔÇÖm talking all my money to CitizenÔÇÖs Trust. If we move this amount of money to your bank then what were gonna do is start to divert money away from the system. And this works.
Apartheid ended in South Africa because students in America said we not flying Delta anyore. We not drinking coca-cola anymore. WeÔÇÖre not supporting any corporation that supports the apartheid and enslavement of people that look like us. Once again, right now, I ainÔÇÖt saying ÔÇÿMarch, hold hands, speech,ÔÇÖ IÔÇÖm saying take your money out of this dogÔÇÖs hands."
His message managed to hit its targets directly and it appears that people have also heeded his call. It's been reported that since Mike's interview, over 8,000 new accounts have been opened at the bank. As Hip-Hop Wired points out, there's a minimum of $100 needed to open an account, that's a grand total of $800,000 that's been moved to the bank in less than a week.
"There have been reports and talk on social media that the bank has overwhelmed by the number of people who have been walking in and opening new accounts. But, the long lines have not discouraged anyone."
The influx of new cash caught the eye of Cynthia N. Day, the CEO of Citizens Trust Bank, who took to Twitter to "thank Killer Mike for his call-to-action."
We thank @KillerMike for his call-to-action. Together, we can change the conversation. Cynthia N. Day, Pres and CEO pic.twitter.com/nrMs2ALG5x
— Citizens Trust Bank (@CTBank) July 8, 2016
The ATLien took to Instagram to thank everyone who followed his words. He also stressed that this was just the start and that the target goal far exceeds the sum of what's been moved thus far. The other half of the Run the Jewels duo wants $100 million in accounts.
It'll be interesting to see if the original goal can be reached and how this will impact the African American community. It's notoriously difficult for black people to get bank loans, especially ones for small businesses. If Citizens Trust can leverage their newfound capital to help black small business owners, in addition to loans for other purposes, black economic empowerment may become a reality.

Killer Mike Reportedly Has Inspired People To Move Over $800K To Citizens Trust Bank In Only Five Days : UPROXX


Today marks a special day within the Obama household and for their admirers across the globe. Former First Lady Michelle Obama posted a stunning photo of her and former President Barack Obama on their wedding day, commemorating 25 years of marriage (Oct. 3, 1992).
"A quarter of a century later, you're still my best friend & the most extraordinary man I know," Mrs. Obama captioned the black-and-white image.
With a countless number of photographs that depict their infinite love for each other, nothing compares to Mr. Obama's farewell speech earlier this year where he expressed his gratitude toward his influential wife.
"Michelle LaVaughn Robinson, girl of the south side, for the past 25 years you have not only been my wife and mother of my children, you have been my best friend," he said to a roaring crowd. "You took on a role you didn't ask for and you made it your own with grace, and with grit and with style and with humor."


If you want to be a bad product manager, make sure your product has lots of options. Some users might want to use keyboard shortcuts, others might want to use just the mouse, and some might want a command line interface. How can you possibly pick one that works best for everyone? You can't! So, put all of those options in your product. Better to give customers choices than to possibly leave out someone an important customer might request.
If you want to be a good product manager, make decisions for your users rather than giving them too many choices. As much as you want to be focused on the needs of your users, there's a point where it's just going too far. Is your target market really going to want a command line interface? How many options do users really need for personalizing their account? Do you really need 15 different ways to turn your computer off?
Every additional choice you push to the user is one additional feature that needs to be developed — requirements written, specifications created, designs produced, code engineered, testing completed. Choices are often added not because they are deemed appropriate based on knowledge of the market and the customers, but because the product development team doesn't know enough about the market and the customers to make a decision themselves, so they figure they'll just let the user decide. Next time you want to add a few choices for users, ask yourself if it's because there is an identified need that this option is solving, or if it's because you don't know your customers well enough to know what they would prefer.
Yes, there are times when there are legitimate reasons to provide options to customers, but by taking a close look at why you're providing those options, you'll be less likely to add unnecessary work and complexity for both your product development team and your customers and end users.
Is this the reason why linux desktop can't fly like windows? Linux have a lot of redundant programs sometime it takes a lot of time and headache choosing which email client, browser, or desktop (gnome or KDE or a lot more) is better. It is all there!
Good thoughts, Jeff. In my experience product teams can get caught up in design for boundary cases. We'll include product capability for every conceivable situation no matter how rare. I've heard of features being used more internally during our testing phases than in live products. But there they are – features that no one needs in our products.
At a previous company we had threshholds for things like browsers and plugins. It was around 94% (or 96%?). So if 94% of our target population had Flash x.x installed, we could design for that version of Flash. In my current position, we design to any thresh hold, even for fractions of a percent.
There has been some good research recently on the number of features to include. Just Google "feature fatigue." Basically, more features help sales, but hurt long term usability and product satisfaction.


Hello, Love-a-thoners and wonderful readers! I'll be participating in the third mini-challenge for the day, One Can Only Quote. Basically, the task is to share a favorite quote (or even more than one) about love or friendship. The quote can be typed or you could include artwork you find on the web or even make your own graphics for it. Obviously, since I already design quote posters for my Quote Book feature, I'll also share my self-made graphics for this challenge!
I couldn't pick just one so I'm sharing three favourite love quotes from Cassandra Clare's The Infernal Devices!
I, like you, fellow hopeless romantic, adore all of these quotes! Especially the first one, it's just so sweet. I like the graphics as well.
I LOVE the Infernal Devices series. Tessa is one of my favorite characters ever. Cassandra Clare's books are just so beautiful and quotable.
I REALLY NEED TO READ THIS SERIES! No, but for real – I love the quotes you've chosen. And I've heard so many great things about these books. May just have to check them out sooner, rather than later! And, as always, beautiful graphics, Hazel!
Oooh, these are good romantic quotes! And you made them sooooo pretty!
