How Manipulation of the Body During Mortuary Ritual Creates Identity
Apr. 5, 2021, 11:30am to 12:30pm
Speaker Dr. Anna Osterholz (UNLV Alumna) of Mississippi State University will be giving a talk title: The body poetic: How manipulation of the body during mortuary ritual creates and amplifies identity
Just as the dead do not bury themselves, the dead also do not process their own mortal remains. The human body is a phenomenological and manipulable object, culturally constructed, and often manipulated for the benefit of the living by the living. Drawing on Whitehead's Poetics of Violence model, we can examine identity formation through mortuary rituals, particularly those rituals that involve interaction between the living and the dead. Poetics tell us that it is the synergistic effect of ritual and performance that creates and allows for negotiation of social identity. These processes are not limited to violent interactions but can also be seen in mortuary rituals and body processing as these are socially constructed cultural performances. In this talk, I will discuss the essential theory, building a model of mortuary poetics using social anthropology, archaeological and bioarchaeological theory. Mortuary rituals are performed by the living for both the living and the dead, causing changes in status and identity through their performance.
Mortuary rituals illustrate the relationship between the living and the dead. Archaeologically, mortuary rituals can be identified through the material traces they leave, from the graves themselves to the remnants of feasting activity. This materiality of mortuary processing is the embodiment of the rituals and performances that created it, and so changes in the materiality indicate changes to the rituals and the relationship between the living and the dead. In our modern western world, we have a very individualistic view of identity, and our death rituals reflect this, occurring in secular and religious Spaces. We interact with our dead in ways that reflect our intersectional and communal identities. I will explore these topics with numerous case studies in archaeology and modern burials, everything from understanding why burial within a Medieval Church was a status symbol to why a concert/memorial service and fireworks/cremations explosion was the appropriate sendoff for a man like Hunter S. Thompson. No matter the time we examine, mortuary rituals are meaningful expressions of identity, this talk will examine the ties that bind the living to the dead and how those ties are embodied in poetic performances.

Italian police arrested 33 suspects and seized assets worth millions of euros as part of operation "China Truck", a police statement said on Thursday.
Italian police raid the home of suspected Chinese mafiosos ReutersThe operation is the culmination of a seven-year investigation into the Chinese mafia ring, which maintained affiliates as far as France, Spain and Germany. Another 21 people are still being investigated but have not yet been arrested.
The group used violence and intimidation against Chinese business owners to maintain a monopoly on transportation for the thousands of Chinese cheap fashion companies in Prato, Italy, reported The New York Times. It maintains its finances with side businesses in prostitution, gambling and the drug trade.
Prato, a Tuscan city north of Florence and one of the largest communities of Chinese immigrants in Europe, is home to around 4,500 Chinese companies that import textiles and other fashion components from China, assembling them cheaply and selling them across Europe.
Rival Chinese gangs have historically competed for business in Prato, and are suspected to have murdered at least 40 people between 2005 and 2010, before the turf war that led to the ascendance of Zhang Naizhong and culminated in the killing of two young Chinese men with a machete in a restaurant.
Afterwards, Zhang became the "undisputed criminal boss" of the Chinese mafia in the area, according to a judicial source in contact with Reuters. He was among those arrested Thursday.
A court document provides a phone intercept of one exemplary conversation between Zhang and a few of his associates in France.
Both apparently agreed to join forces with him the next day.
According to Reuters, Italian magistrates estimate that Zhang's group engaged in business activities worth "hundreds of millions of euros".

Mel B's Comments About Glastonbury 2020 & The Spice Girls Will Make You Stop Right Now
By Sam Ramsden
Following their sold out UK stadium tour, it's fair to say that the highly-anticipated Spice Girls reunion was a resounding success — and fans of the iconic girlband might have even more girl power to look forward to, because one band member is very keen on performing at one of the world's biggest music festivals. But will the Spice Girls play at Glastonbury's 50th anniversary? Here's everything we know so far.
According to Digital Spy, Mel B (or Scary Spice, as she's better known) revealed that the epic Spice Girls reunion might not be over just yet, because the "Wannabe" singer is determined to book a slot at the festival's 50th anniversary. During an interview with the Mail Online, Mel discussed her desire for the band to appear at Glastonbury's 50th anniversary in 2020, and again commented on bandmate Victoria Beckham's absence from the reunion tour. Speaking to the publication, she said, "I'm going to make sure there will be more," and continued, "Victoria is Victoria. She didn't want to do it. She missed out. But my plan is for all five of us to do Glastonbury next year for the 50th anniversary. I'm in the process of persuading Victoria to do it. And I will make it happen."

Throughout the interview, the "Spice Up Your Life" singer also discussed the ups and downs of her relationship with fellow bandmate Geri Horner, and revealed that one profound moment during the band's recent reunion tour "meant more" to her "than any of the other girls." Speaking to the Mail Online, she said, "Geri and I are in a good place now. On the last night at Wembley, Geri did something which, I think, meant more to me than any of the other girls. She said sorry for leaving the group back in 1998. We had been so close and then she just left and never really said why and never really said sorry until a few weeks ago."
So, it seems Horner's words at the reunion tour provided some much needed resolution between the pair, and speaking of what happened next, Mel went on to reveal, "She gave me a massive hug after she said it and both of us had tears in our eyes because we knew, deep down, it had needed to be said for a long time, something that had rankled between us."
Andreas Rentz/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
As previously reported by Bustle, Victoria Beckham decided against taking part in the 2019 Spice Girls reunion tour. However, the mother-of-four did post a heartwarming message of support for her bandmate's upon the tour's announcement late last year. Speaking on Instagram, Beckham said, "I won't be joining my girls on stage again but being in the Spice Girls was a hugely important part of my life and I wish them so much love and fun as they go back on tour next year. I know they will put on an amazing show and the fantastic fans past and present are going to have a wonderful time X vb #spicegirls."
So, although Beckham didn't appear this time around, there's always hope the Spice Girls will one day fully reunite — and the Glastonbury Festival's 50th anniversary would be the perfect setting for such a legendary moment.

'Cyrano' infuses an oft-told tale with disarming sincerity and operatic passion
Fresh Air | By Justin Chang
Published February 25, 2022 at 9:51 AM CST
Peter Mountain
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures Inc.
Haley Bennett stars as Roxanne in Joe Wright's Cyrano.
A lot of great actors have played Cyrano de Bergerac over the years, including José Ferrer, Christopher Plummer, Gérard Depardieu, Kevin Kline and Steve Martin, if you count — and why not? — the 1987 modern-day comedy Roxanne.
The latest to join their distinguished company is Peter Dinklage, and he's the rare actor not to wear a fake nose for the role. Here, it's not a big schnoz but rather Cyrano's diminutive stature that makes him think he's unworthy of Roxanne, the woman he loves, played by Haley Bennett.
That's not the only major departure from Edmond Rostand's tragicomic 1897 play. This solid and sometimes enchanting movie, simply titled Cyrano, was adapted by Erica Schmidt from her 2019 stage musical, with a score and songs by members of the band The National. Their sweet, somber melodies bring a decidedly modern edge to the story, which takes place sometime between the 17th and 18th centuries. While Cyrano de Bergerac usually unfolds in Paris, the movie, shot mostly in Sicily, doesn't specify an exact location.
Apart from those changes, it's the same story. Cyrano, a respected soldier in the king's army, is renowned and feared for his superb swordsmanship and his scathing wit, both of which have made him powerful enemies like Count de Guiche, played by a scowling Ben Mendelsohn.
Cyrano is also deeply in love with Roxanne, a longtime friend who admires his confrontational spirit and his way with words. But Roxanne has fallen for Christian, a dashing young soldier — played by a very good Kelvin Harrison Jr. — who's just joined Cyrano's regiment. Cyrano takes on the role of a go-between and even goes so far as to write impossibly eloquent love letters to Roxanne, passing them off as Christian's.
At the climax of this farcical romantic triangle, Roxanne stands at her bedroom window while the hopelessly inarticulate Christian tries to woo her, with some much-needed prodding from Cyrano, lurking in the shadows. At a certain point, Cyrano takes over, and he gives full voice to his passionate feelings in a lovely duet between him and a still-unsuspecting Roxanne.
Fun fact: Dinklage and screenwriter Schmidt are a couple, as are Bennett and the film's director, Joe Wright. Think of it as a romantic behind-the-scenes footnote to a movie that's unabashedly romantic in spirit. Wright's filmmaking has a pleasing old-fashioned sumptuousness, courtesy of production designer Sarah Greenwood and costume designers Massimo Cantini Parrini and Jacqueline Durran, who are Oscar-nominated for their dazzling work here.
As he did in past films like Pride & Prejudice and Anna Karenina, Wright controls the camera with fluid grace, letting us see the actors and dancers moving through space with none of the busy cutting you get in so many contemporary movie musicals. Bennett is a trained singer, and she delivers the movie's strongest musical performance; her Roxanne really comes to emotional life when she's called on to sing.
Dinklage has musical experience, too — he was the frontman of a '90s punk band called Whizzy — and he expresses Cyrano's every longing with a deep, soulful baritone. He's an inspired choice for the role: Like Tyrion Lannister, whom Dinklage played to perfection on Game of Thrones, Cyrano is always the smartest person in the room, easy to underestimate but hard to defeat in a battle of wits or weapons.
But Dinklage shows you the deep ache at Cyrano's core, and makes you feel the sting of his unrequited love. Some purists may miss that big nose, but there's something about the lack of prosthetic enhancements that makes Dinklage's performance all the more poignant: What you see onscreen is all him, nothing more and nothing less.
That disarming sincerity applies to the movie as a whole. It's not always the most graceful retelling of this oft-told tale, but it's hard not to admire Wright's conviction and sometimes his crazy audacity. Only a truly committed director would have opted to shoot a climactic battle scene at 16,000 feet above sea level on the side of Mount Etna, a live volcano. It's a showy flourish, for sure — but also a fitting one for a story of such grand, operatic passion.

Q: Generate multivariate monomials with constraints I'm trying to generate multivariate monomials in variables $p_1, \ldots, p_n$. Each monomial has either $p_i$ as a factor, otherwise $(1-p_i)$. I need to generate all monomials which have exactly $k$ variables in the $p_i$ form.
(Essentially there are $n$ coin tosses, the coins having probabilities $p_i$, and I want all monomials corresponding to the probabilities of different ways of getting exactly $k$ heads.)
I tried generating subsets of $\{1,\ldots, n\}$ of size $k$ and manipulating the resulting lists into monomials, but I'm too inexperienced with Mathematica.
eg. if $n=3$ and $k=1$, the list of monomials are
$$\{p_1(1-p_2)(1-p_3), (1-p_1)p_2(1-p_3), (1-p_1)(1-p_2)p_3\}$$

A: ClearAll[f1, f2]
f1[n_, i_] := Permutations /@ IntegerPartitions[i, {n}, {0, 1}]
f2[n_, i_] := Module[{pr = Array[Subscript[p, #]&, n]},
  Times @@ (pr^# (1 - pr)^(1 - #)) & /@ f1[n, i][[1]]]

Examples:
f2[3, 1] // TeXForm

$\left\{p_1 \left(1-p_2\right) \left(1-p_3\right),\left(1-p_1\right) p_2
   \left(1-p_3\right),\left(1-p_1\right) \left(1-p_2\right) p_3\right\}$

f2[4, 2] // Column // TeXForm

$\begin{array}{l}
 p_1 p_2 \left(1-p_3\right) \left(1-p_4\right) \\
 p_1 \left(1-p_2\right) p_3 \left(1-p_4\right) \\
 p_1 \left(1-p_2\right) \left(1-p_3\right) p_4 \\
 \left(1-p_1\right) p_2 p_3 \left(1-p_4\right) \\
 \left(1-p_1\right) p_2 \left(1-p_3\right) p_4 \\
 \left(1-p_1\right) \left(1-p_2\right) p_3 p_4 \\

Alternatively, you can use the PDF of the joint distribution of n independent Bernoulli random variables:
ClearAll[f3]
f3[n_, i_] := Module[{dist = ProductDistribution @@
     Array[BernoulliDistribution @ Subscript[p, #] &, n]},
  PDF[dist, #] & /@ First[Permutations /@ IntegerPartitions[i, {n}, {0, 1}]]]

f3[3, 1] == f2[3, 1]

True

f3[5, 3] == f2[5, 3]

True

Each day millions of people in the Chicagoland area use mass transportation systems such as the CTA, Metra, and Amtrak, to travel around our city. While public transportation may be the simplest and most efficient way to travel, accidents will inevitably occur. The Governmental agencies that are responsible for these transit operations have a responsibility to operate them safely.
The CTA is the second largest public transportation system in the United States. Upwards of 2000 buses operate almost 130 routes and CTA trains make over 2000 trips each day to approximately 150 stations. With such a large public transportation system comes heightened risk of injury.There are approximately 20 bus accidents and more than 2 train accidents eachmonth.
In fact, Chicago Tribune reported that CTA buses were involved in more accidents each year since 2008 than the buses in operation at our nation's 9 other largest bus transit agencies according to the Federal Transit Administration. In 2010 over 500 people were treated at hospitals for injuries sustained in CTA bus accidents.
Were You Injured in An Accident That Occurred On Transit Property?
Not mentioned above in these statistics are accidents that occur on transit property. Accidents can also occur while walking into and out of the station or bus stop or on the platform itself. With every respect, the entities that are responsible for the operation and maintenance of these enterprises have an obligation to operate in a safe manner.
Also, each entity that operates these separate services, from CTA lines to Chicago school busses, has a specific process that must be followed in order to collect damages. Additionally individuals who were injured in an accident caused by a public transportation vehicle but were not public transportation passengers at the time have different rights than those who were passengers at the time of the accident. These small yet significant details greatly affect the way that your claim needs to be handled.
That is why it is critical that you speak with one of our attorneys as soon as you can following an accident. Moreover, public transportation systems have immunities from specific kinds of liability and a number of technical legal hurdles must be overcome in preparation of a case. Our team knows the ins-and-outs of these transportation operations' requirements and is prepared to fight for you. Seeking damages after a public transportation accident can be stressful and frustrating. The attorneys at Stein and Shulman, LLC have the knowledge, skills and resources to help you pursue compensation for your injuries in a timely manner.
Calling us and getting our advice is free. There is no charge for your consultation. So, if you or someone you know was injured in a bus or train related accident, or if you fell or were injured on transit operations' property call us at (312) 422-0500 for a free consultation or fill out our free contact form online.

In astronomia, il Catalogo van den Bergh delle nebulose a riflessione è un catalogo astronomico che conta 158 nebulose a riflessione; secondo le intenzioni dell'autore, Sidney van den Bergh, questo catalogo indicizza tutte le stelle dei cataloghi BD e CD a nord dei 33° di declinazione sud circondate da nebulose a riflessione visibili sia nelle stampe in blu che in quelle in rosso del Palomar Sky Survey.

La sigla utilizzata nelle carte celesti per gli oggetti di questo catalogo è vdB seguito dal numero dell'oggetto; tuttavia, poiché come spesso accade, molti oggetti hanno più designazioni, si tende a indicare il numero del Catalogo Van den Bergh solo in mancanza di alcuni cataloghi meglio noti, come il Catalogo di Messier (M), il New General Catalogue (NGC) o l'Index Catalogue (IC).

Le nebulose di questo catalogo più vicine a noi si trovano lungo la Cintura di Gould, mentre le più lontane si trovano sul piano galattico o in bracci di spirale adiacenti al nostro. Fra le nebulose si osservano 13 associazioni, alcune delle quali coincidono con alcune associazioni OB note; altre nebulose sono invece illuminate dalla luce diffusa della stessa Via Lattea. Interessante notare come la radiazione maggiore non si trova esattamente sul piano galattico, ma subito sopra e sotto, questo a causa del fatto che sull'equatore galattico la luce viene maggiormente attenuata dalle nebulose oscure.

Oggetti notevoli
vdB 5 (Sh-2 185 - Nube di )
vdB 17 (NGC 1333)
vdB 21 (Nube nelle Pleiadi)
vdB 34 (IC 405)
vdB 52 (NGC 2023)

Navigating a Lane Change Safely & Efficiently
August 2, 2016 • by Andy Lundin

You can't talk about safe driving without mentioning how to make a proper lane change. The essential elements that make a safe lane change ultimately serve as the components for safe driving, and they are always applicable in any amount of traffic.
Intention is the first step to take in making a proper lane change. "The first thing you're going to do is signal. That's a lost art. You have to signal your intent, check the area, check your mirror, do the glance over your shoulder, and, if it's clear, then merge in," said Phil Moser, vice president of Advanced Driver Training Services (ADTS).
Scanning is the second step to a safe lane change. Making the over-the-shoulder glance is a procedure that Moser suggests drivers do every time they change lanes and merge. Moser also suggests to check your mirrors every 5 to 7 seconds. However, the intervals of checking your mirrors may vary depending on the amount of traffic.
"You may have a tendency to check around you more often in heavier traffic, because there is a chance things are going to change more quickly, but drivers should take a positive glance over their shoulders before making a lane change no matter what," said Moser.
Not following these basic steps is when drivers can get into trouble and be involved in a crash. "Let's say you're in lane three, you're trying to merge into the center lane, and you just look in the center lane (and see there are no cars), there could be somebody shooting up from lane one, and merging in just as you are," said Moser. "So you have to scan all lanes of travel."
Scanning Your Surroundings
Constant scanning is only part of the equation of avoiding a crash while changing lanes.
"The two basic principles to avoid crashes is the 360-degree scan, and then knowing your escape space," said Moser.
Knowing where your escape space is important due to how little time there is to react to a potential accident.
"You have three escapes spaces: to the right, to the left, or to the front — your stopping distance," said Moser.
Moser said there are ultimately only four things a driver can do to handle a vehicle that is encroaching his or her lane: steer, break, accelerate, or sound the horn.
"If someone is trying to merge toward my rear, if I can accelerate and get away from them I will. But if someone is trying to merge in, and they're toward my front, I'm probably going to go on the brake. But you have to watch out for the person behind you," said Moser.
Reducing the Blind Spot
Drivers who are changing lanes, particularly in dynamic situations, such as highways, need to make sure that their mirrors are properly aligned prior to getting on the road.
To properly adjust their mirrors, drivers should place the left side of their head against the driver side window while sitting in their vehicles, and adjust the mirror on the driver's side, so that their vehicle is barely visible in the mirror. If done correctly, the side of the vehicle should not be visible in the driver's side mirror, said Moser. He also suggested drivers adjust their side mirrors to be angled out 15 degrees to help diminish the size of their blind spot.
For the passenger side, the mirror should be altered with the driver's head in the center of the cabin (in line with the inside rearview mirror) and adjusted in the same way, where the driver can barely see the vehicle down alongside the vehicle.

COMMON CAUSE REGIONAL DIRECTOR
DISCUSSES RECENT SUPREME COURT DECISION AND WHAT WE CAN DO ABOUT IT
At the February 11th meeting of the Lamorinda Democratic Club, Common Cause Regional Director for State Operations for Western States Derek Cressman discussed the "deeply troubling� Citizens United Supreme Court Decision, Citizens United vs. FEC. During his talk, Cressman expressed concern that the January 21, 2010 Supreme Court is "eroding the role that that institution is supposed to play in our Democracy,� by overturning years' worth of precedent. He cautioned that the recent ruling could have implications for a strong Democratic leader like Senator Barbara Boxer, as corporations that disagree with her stances on global warming, health care and finance reform could spend several million dollars to defeat her. However, Californians have been living with unlimited corporate donations for years, so nothing will change on the state level.
Cressman advised that there are three immediate responses to combat the Supreme Court decision: 1) Require greater disclosure of political ads (i.e. require the CEO of the corporation funding a political ad to make an authorization statement at the end of the ad). 2) Require shareholders to approve campaign expenditures. 3) Require the Supreme Court to uphold a ban on foreign corporations (i.e. those corporations with 20% or more owned by a foreign entity).
Cressman is cautiously excited about the passage of Proposition 15, The California Fair Elections Act, on the June 2010 ballot. Under Prop 15, to qualify for the statewide ballot, Secretary of State candidates would need to find 7,500supporters to sign a petition and contribute $5. They must also agree to strict spending limits. Then, these candidates would receive $1M for the primary election and $1.3 M for a general election campaign. As of February 11, 2010, Proposition 15 was polling at 60% approval.
In addition to helping manage state operations, Cressman coordinates Common Cause's work on the national popular vote, and writes and organizes around election reforms such as vote-by-mail. A graduate of Williams College, he has worked on democracy issues since 1995, and is considered a leading expert on money in politics and democracy issues. Prior to joining Common Cause, Cressman founded and directed TheRestOfUs.org, a nonprofit watchdog that raised awareness of the role of big money in politics.

Director: Shawn Levy
PG-13; 119 mins
Two salesmen whose careers have been torpedoed by the digital age find their way into a coveted internship at Google, where they must compete with a group of young, tech-savvy geniuses for a shot at employment. (Synopsis by IMBD)
There is always that one guy at every party that keeps trying the same joke on everyone. For hours he'll keep at it, oblivious to how much everyone cringes when he makes eye contact. This film is that guy: a one-note comedy that should have went straight to video.
Director: James DeMonaco
R; 85 mins
If on one night every year, you could commit any crime without facing consequences, what would you do? In The Purge, a speculative thriller that follows one family over the course of a single night, four people will be tested to see how far they will go to protect themselves when the vicious outside world breaks into their home. In an America wracked by crime and overcrowded prisons, the government has sanctioned an annual 12-hour period in which any and all criminal activity-includingmurder-becomes legal. The police can't be called. Hospitals suspend help. It's one night when the citizenry regulates itself without thought of punishment. On this night plagued by violence and an epidemic of crime, one family wrestles with the decision of who they will become when a stranger comes knocking. When an intruder breaks into James Sandin's (Ethan Hawke) gated community during the yearly lockdown, he begins a sequence of events that threatens to tear a family apart. Now, it is up to James, his wife, Mary (Lena Headey), and their kids to make it through the night without turning into the monsters from whom they hide. (Synopsis by Universal)
Check out my review on The Dagger later this week.
The Kings of Summer
Director: Jordan Vogt-Roberts
R, 92 mins
Premiering to rave reviews at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival, THE KINGS OF SUMMER is a unique coming-of-age comedy about three teenage friends – Joe (Nick Robinson), Patrick (Gabriel Basso) and the eccentric and unpredictable Biaggio (Moises Arias) – who, in the ultimate act of independence, decide to spend their summer building a house in the woods and living off the land. Free from their parents' rules, their idyllic summer quickly becomes a test of friendship as each boy learns to appreciate the fact that family – whether it is the one you're born into or the one you create – is something you can't run away from. (Synopsis by CBS Films)
An overly-typical suburban indie coming-of-age film. It is easy enough to like, but has been done better (i.e. "Stand By Me"). The best thing that might come out of this film is a new crop of young acting talent.
Director: John Moore
John McClane travels to Russia to help out his seemingly wayward son, Jack, only to discover that Jack is a CIA operative working to prevent a nuclear-weapons heist, causing the father and son to team up against underworld forces. (Synopsis by IMBD)
Remember everything that was good about the "Die Hard" franchise. This ruins that. Someone must have realized how bad this was early on and cut the production budget. Much like "Rocky V," it's better to pretend this never happened.
Escape from Planet Earth
Director: Callan Brunker
PG; 89 mins
The 3D animated family comedy catapults moviegoers to planet Baab where admired astronaut Scorch Supernova (Brendan Fraser) is a national hero to the blue alien population. A master of daring rescues, Scorch pulls off astonishing feats with the quiet aid of his nerdy, by-the-rules brother, Gary (Rob Corddry), head of mission control at BASA. When BASA's no-nonsense chief Lena (Jessica Alba) informs the brothers of an SOS from a notoriously dangerous planet, Scorch rejects Gary's warnings and bounds off for yet another exciting mission. But when Scorch finds himself caught in a fiendish trap set by the evil Shanker (William Shatner) it's up to scrawny, risk-adverse Gary to do the real rescuing. As the interplanetary stakes rise to new heights, Gary is left to save his brother, his planet, his beloved wife Kira (Sarah Jessica Parker) and their adventure hungry son Kip. (Synopsis by Weinstein)
This one will only amuse children young enough to be entranced by shiny objects and bright colors. Sure to be a cult classic among stoners.

EPA Spokesperson: Abandoning Our Sponsorship of Climate Leadership Program 'Shouldn't Be a Surprise'
Sidney Fussell
Filed to:climate change
President Trump and EPA head, Scott Pruitt AP
On Friday, the EPA announced it was ending its sponsorship of the Climate Leadership Awards, a national program that rewards businesses and organizations making efforts to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions.
Launched under Obama in 2012, the CLA awards companies for setting and meeting voluntary GHG emissions goals, publicly releasing emissions targets, or creating new partnerships that foster emissions reduction initiatives. Past recipients have included IBM, Microsoft, and the University of California. The announcement of the EPA's discontinued involvement comes in the middle of next year's application process. Its co-sponsors, the Center for Climate and Energy Solutions (C2ES) and the Climate Registry, have announced they are seeking new partners to continue funding. The 2018 award ceremony and accompanying Climate Leadership Conference are still scheduled for next February in Denver.
"It shouldn't be a surprise to anyone that [the EPA doesn't] plan to fund an awards ceremony on climate change," said a spokesperson.
It's hard to disagree. President Trump's environmental legacy has so far been one of climate change denial and dismissal, and his cabinet has fallen in line. Since famously tweeting that climate change is a "hoax," Trump's budget has called for slashing funding for climate change research. Neither of his press secretaries, first Sean Spicer and now Sarah Huckabee Sanders, have given a straight answer on whether Trump believes in climate change.
His cabinet has followed suit.
Scott Pruitt, the current head of the EPA, is openly dismissive of the global consensus on climate change, and has removed climate scientists from the EPA's Board of Science Counselors. Rick Perry, head of the Department of Energy has also pushed against the scientific consensus on climate change, as has Secretary of the Interior, Ryan Zinke. Budget director, Mick Mulvaney, infamously told reporters in March that this administration considers it "a waste of your money" to fund climate change research.
So while it's not "surprising" to see the EPA turn away from supporting businesses making steps to reduce their carbon footprint, the brazenly nonchalant nature of the spokesperson's quote is disturbing. We shouldn't be surprised, nor should we casually accept bold and shameless climate denial as the norm.
Correction 8/29/17 12:30pm - A previous version of this post erroneously said the 2018 ceremony was cancelled. The Center for Climate and Energy Solutions reached out to confirm that next year's awards ceremony will continue as scheduled.

Q: this.parent.parent.removeChild(this.parent) not working in IE8 I am facing an issue because of removeChild method in javascript.
I am using below code to remove a div tag.
this.parent.parent.removeChild(this.parent).
that code is working pretty fine in FF but it give me error in IE7/8.
" Error: Object doesn't support this property or method ".
is removeChild method is not supported in IE7/8 or is there any other alternate of this method?
Regards,
Mahendra Athneria
Mumbai,Maharashtra,India

A: It should be parentNode not parent

A: thanks for your precious time and reply. special thanks to Meder.
Finally i found the solution.
Here is my solution and analysis.
actually in my code i was using this.parent.parent.removeChild(this.parent) to delete the child.
this.parent return [object window] and [object window] does not support the removeChild property. to use removeChild method we need the Element and to get the element i made some change in my code.
1st - change the method signature.
function removeCriteria(thisObj) {.....}
2nd -only for IE
thisObj.srcElement.parentElement.parentElement.removeChild(thisObj.srcElement.parentElement);
this solution works for me and hope my analysis is right :-)
For @Meder & other seniors - correct me if i am wrong.
Regards,
Mahendra

In full stage makeup and with hair the color of a potato chip, Scanlan is vibrant and leonine. She doesn't pause to look at herself in the mirror, moving quickly, instead, back to the hospital lobby. Waiting amid the low hum of life-giving machinery is the rest of her party—a couple of USO executives and Dennis Muilenburg, the president and CEO of Boeing Defense, Space & Security. Today's visit is an unusually weighty event on the Miss America calendar, which is crammed with a year's worth of receptions, clean-ups, duct-tape festivals, furniture-store signings, and club-sandwich luncheons. As the group moves into the hospital corridor, young men in Nikes and sweatpants (if they've suffered one amputation) or no pants at all (if both legs are gone) look up and then down again, responding only when Scanlan approaches to touch a shoulder or offer a photograph. Nobody recognizes her.
Teresa's bedside manner is a combination of big sister and bombshell, which works pretty well to dispel the self-consciousness of a teenager missing half of his body. "Matt! All right. Spelled with one T or two T's?" she asks, posing with a soldier who has lost two legs and one arm. Matt bends his hand awkwardly so that Scanlan can't see where three fingers have been blown off. In the gym, she plays with a service dog named Wally and spots a soldier learning to walk on a pair of prosthetic legs. Most civilians might hesitate to approach the newly impaired, but Scanlan zooms right over and asks what it feels like to use the prosthetics. "Like walking on stilts," the soldier explains, pleased with her directness. They chat about Florida, where he is from and where Scanlan has recently acquired a sunburn. Nearby, Muilenburg hands out commemorative Boeing coins, telling the injured men that the only reason he's in the defense business is to serve guys like them. "Keep making things that blow them up," a soldier calls from bed. Muilenburg gives him a coin.
This year's Miss America pageant, the ninetieth, took place on January 15 in Las Vegas. Fifty-three contestants filled a glittery stage to tap-dance, pirouette, perform a ventriloquist duet of "I Want to Be a Cowboy's Sweetheart," and otherwise compete for one large chunk and many small chunks of scholarship money. Except for one perverse feature—the requirement that eliminated contestants remain onstage to watch the pageant roll forth without them—it made for pretty dull viewing.
At its peak, Miss America was an index of feminine aspiration. In 1960, when the country as a whole held only 180 million possible viewers, the show reached 85 million of them. As late as 1968, the pageant was still significant enough to provoke a feminist outcry at its Atlantic City venue (protesters crowned a live sheep and deposited padded bras in a trash can). But by 2007, viewership had dropped to 2.7 million, marking the low point of the pageant's downhill slide. Given that beauty pageants have proliferated since the sixties, the ratings dip may have less to do with datedness than with the fact that a pageant's chief metric—poise—is not and has never been a telegenic virtue. Miss America is all finished product and no process, and contemporary viewers tend to crave the exact opposite. The pageant ethos of perfectibility seems as quaint, these days, as the "Miss" honorific.
Thanks to a jump from cable to network TV, this year's ratings rose to a respectable 6.6 million. The number, interestingly, climbed as the two-hour telecast wore on, suggesting that something about the narrowing pool of candidates—or one candidate in particular—was attracting viewers. It wasn't obvious at first. Because each of the Miss America contenders is practiced and anatomically correct, tiny distinctions in presentation carry a great deal of weight. And for the most part, the young ladies of 2011 played it safe. Contestants barely speak for the first half of the show, and it's hard to stand out when you're one of several dozen women grinning silently in taffeta.
The exception was Miss Nebraska, who performed her piano glissandi with some violence, spoke forcefully about WikiLeaks ("When it came to that situation, it was actually based on espionage"), and shared her intention to be a Supreme Court justice. Watching the pageant, I was struck by her attractiveness, quotability, toughness, faith, and ambition. As weird and unfashionable as pageant standards may seem, Scanlan's ruthless beauty-queen comportment feels immediately familiar in 2011, when political candidates are held to a standard of faultlessness that only a doll might plausibly meet (women candidates in particular). Transport Scanlan from her Miss America context into the political arena and the anachronistic pageant armor seems, suddenly, a shrewdly contemporary asset. In a limo one morning after breakfast, just weeks after winning her title, she tells me that she can see herself as president. It doesn't sound like an unreasonable plan.
Fort Belvoir, when we arrive, is a Vatican-size post in Fairfax County, Virginia, with a population that numbers about the same as that of Scanlan's small hometown. Her first task is to read out loud to several classes of schoolchildren and then to answer their questions. The children ask things like "Are you a princess?" ("I am a kind of American princess") and "Why did they pick you?" (she laughs and says that it's a good question). In one class, Scanlan asks whether anyone watched the pageant. Only a few kids raise their hands. "It was boring," a second-grader tells her.
When lasagne arrives, Scanlan fills her plate, finds a seat at the table of Marines, and starts a conversation about rattlesnakes. I take a chair at the Army table and ask whether anyone caught Scanlan's win on TV. "I didn't know they still did the pageant crap," Steven says. "I thought that was a nineties thing." The men vacuum up noodles and ask five questions about Scanlan: (1) Does she watch sports? (2) Is she a Mormon? (3) Does she like to party? (4) Does she retain her title, like the president, when she's no longer Miss America? (5) What's her favorite gum? The conversation quickly advances to Forrest Gump, a toddler who got drunk at Applebee's, and the question of whether cake counts as candy.
The Miss America Organization doesn't allow reporters any real one-on-one time with the winner, and Gonzales is careful to intervene whenever Scanlan and I might have a moment of privacy. (Moments of privacy with others are prohibited, too: Gonzales requests a connecting suite at each hotel.) At one rest spot, confined to a baking-hot limo while Scanlan eats breakfast, I scroll through pictures of her on my phone. Browsing, I notice that (a) she looks exactly the same in real life as she does in photos, and (b) she looks exactly the same in every photo. The consistency is the result of her stage makeup, which she wears not only onstage but everywhere, and which exactly replicates the makeup of a Barbie doll: penciled brows, a thick stripe of eyeliner, eyelids that shade from dark to light, and pink lip gloss. It's an unfashionably laborious look but a deeply familiar one, and in this way it illustrates the Miss America conundrum: A winner, though she need not be beautiful, must evoke the pleasures of recognition. She must look like Miss America, and she must want to look like Miss America. My conviction that Teresa is a tough nut to crack begins to morph into fear that cracking the nut will yield an identical nut inside.
If you Google "Teresa Scanlan," the second suggestion that pops up, after "Teresa Scanlan bikini," is "Teresa Scanlan wig." This is not a meme or a joke. Her decision to compete in the Miss America pageant wearing a wig became an item of interest only after Scanlan won, with debate flaring up online on the topic of whether a wig is technically cheating (it is not) or just unforgivably weird.
It does not strike Scanlan as weird at all. Most of the other girls wore extensions, she points out. ("I don't really see the difference. It's all basically the same thing.") The appeal of wigs first occurred to her when she met Miss Delaware, who has alopecia and is allergic to her own hair. "I was trying to figure out what I could do to help my hair because it really was getting damaged," Scanlan tells me. Years of dyeing and styling her hair for pageants had left it frizzled. After researching the options, she bought herself a ticket to Tampa, where she sat for three days' worth of fittings with a wigmaker named Bobbi Russell. The result was a pair of hairpieces that Scanlan washes and styles every day, both of them long and blonde but not enough of either to look vulgar. She likes to keep one wig curly and the other straight, for variety's sake, and although the wigs cost $2,400 each—they are made of real human hair—she notes that the company wound up donating both. When off-duty, the wigs stay propped on little heads in her hotel room.
Teresa is a pro. Downtime, for her, means signing thank-you letters on personalized stationery, tapping out Twitter and Facebook updates on an iPad, filing business cards, and taking notes for a guidebook she plans to assemble for future Miss Americas. (Sample advice: Pack your makeup separately from the rest of your luggage, in case the luggage goes missing.) Watching her work in the limousine, I find it easy to imagine Scanlan marching from the womb with a firm handshake, unimpeachable hair, and talking points.
It is much harder to imagine her as a teenager, although that is technically what Scanlan is. Pageant styling plays funny tricks with age—the wigs and makeup can make toddlers look like adult women (which is perturbing) and young women look like older women (which is merely curious). The Miss America look is no longer the standard of American beauty, and her appearance can transplant awkwardly into real life. At Walter Reed, I watched two administrators, a man and a woman, digest Scanlan as she passed out of earshot.
Man: Didja see her? She's cute.
Woman: I think the dress is a little bit much.
Man: But that's just pageant style.
Woman: So you're saying it's okay?
Man: I'm just saying that's how it is.
The grand prize of the Miss America pageant is $50,000 toward college tuition, roughly the cost of one year at a typical private school. Teresa plans to use her fund to attend Patrick Henry College, a small liberal-arts school in Purcellville, Virginia, founded in 2000 by a Christian home-schooling activist. Eighty percent of its student body comes from a home-schooling background, like Teresa. Also like Teresa, many of Patrick Henry's students hope to work on Capitol Hill. (She plans on becoming a Nebraska congresswoman before becoming president.) In just its first five years, the school came to rival Georgetown in the number of internships its students earned in the White House. It is also distinguished by the intensity of its religious commitments. Matriculating students are required to sign a Statement of Faith acknowledging the existence of Satan, expected to seek parental approval in romantic decisions, and prohibited from dancing on campus. Scanlan tells me there was never a question in her mind about where she wanted to go to college.
At age 6, Scanlan lobbied to join her siblings in a room furnished by their parents with desks and school supplies. Later, but not much later, she developed the habit of waking up early and finishing all of her work before lunchtime, which left the afternoons free for piano practice, volunteer work, and dance. She grew interested in religion at about the same time and loved to stay up late memorizing Scripture. Her early diaries, she tells me, are full of complaints about her parents making her put away the Bible to go to bed. At 7, she asked her father if she could get baptized.


The Creative Panic is all about me mixing it up, getting away from the daily grind and having fun with illustration. I'd say I'm still finding my style, so I love to try different drawing styles from time to time. Today's illustration, while nowhere near a technical masterpiece is honestly the most fun I've had with drawing for a while. Quick, loose lines with no use of CONTROL-Z (the modern eraser!) from start to finish.
I was sitting here, working away with iTunes on shuffle and Gold Canary by Cloud Control came on (the previous song was Closer by Nine Inch Nails and I really didn't want to try to illustrate those lyrics if you know what I mean!) I grabbed the wacom pen, opened Illustrator and just went for it… a quickly as I could! I had a smile on my face for the 11 minutes it took to draw the thing (11 minutes because that's how long it takes to play Gold Canary three times through!). I really dig the naïve feel of it, messy and chaotic.
Let me know what you think dudes!
Next Post Dude, where's my UFO?

On behalf of Robert Waters of Drivon Turner & Waters, PLC posted in Car Accidents on Thursday, June 11, 2015.
Living in California, you have experience in how heavy traffic can be. Highways can get backed up, and busy city streets can be ripe for accidents. When you're involved in a collision, it's no doubt going to be a difficult and stressful time for you. You may have injuries that need attending to, and you may be forced to deal with losing your ability to work or bring in an income. If a loved one passes away in the accident, then you'll also have to deal with the funeral, medical expenses, and emotional trauma of that loss.
Many accidents take place because drivers are distracted. Teens, for instance, may have a habit of being on the phone while driving or texting to friends. A simple text can lead to a person looking away from the road for a few seconds, but that's all the time it takes for an accident to take place.
Other times, a driver may simply be negligent. Is their car in disrepair, which is why a tire fell off? Maybe they were speeding in a residential area, so you didn't have time to move out of the way to prevent an accident. Whatever the cause of your accident was, it's important to know that you have a right to seek the compensation that will help you cover the financial impact of the accident.
If you need ongoing medical care, want to replace your vehicle, need to cover funeral costs, or have other expenses, it's important to find out how you'll be compensated. Our website has more information on the ways you can make your claim.


Ահա թե ինչպիսին էին սիրելի աստղերը «Հայ Սուպերսթար» երաժշտական նախագիծի շրջանակներում և ինչպիսին են այսօր.
She was the ultimate beauty in his eyes!
Her large kohl lined dreamy eyes, the curling eye lashes, beautifully arched eye brows, a sharp nose prettified by small sparkling nose pin, slightly sulking pink lips, creamy whiteness of her heart-shaped face crowned by a halo of black wavy hair falling to her waist- all held him transfixed.
He gradually absorbed her slender build demurely clothed in pale pink chiffon knee length dress and her dainty feet encased in open sandals. There was an aura of mesmerizing exquisiteness around her.
Arjun's heart was palpitating! He must have stared at her unblinkingly for many moments.
The girl, who had just crossed her teens noticed Arjun's stare! She smiled slightly!
Late previous evening during the College dance party she had been introduced to Arjun by a common friend. Not that they could meet and talk at any length!
That morning she was waiting in the bus stop to go to college and Arjun had stopped his motor bike at the side, finding her waiting.
Their eyes meeting, he waved at her and after a few seconds hesitation, she reciprocated.
Both of them rode to the College!
Months passed by. Ruchika and Arjun met often shared their smiles and tears, their hopes and disappointments, their inner most thoughts….!
That Sunday morning it was raining! They had already made their plans the day earlier, to go to the stretch of the forest about 50 kms away from the city- towards northeast.
The rain didn't deter them. They rode through rain; it was becoming lighter… through the deserted roads… and reached the edge of the forest!
By that time the rain had totally stopped. Sun was beginning to shine in its full glory. The forest looked intense green, washed in rain… sun rays penetrating through leaves and branches reflecting golden light around, reaching ground in hide and seeks patterns revealing small rivulets of water running in various directions… Chirping of birds and other creatures were audible in varying volumes!


Cars pass the intersection of Sixth Street and Green Street while students wait to pass.
The Champaign Center Partnership and the Illini Union will hold 'Chow Down in Campustown' this Thursday, from 4 to 9 p.m. This is a free event to launch the 13 Thursdays, a summertime promotion of the Campustown area, which is sponsored by several local businesses including Illini Media Company.
This event includes a self-guided culinary tour, a sidewalk sale shopping and family-friendly programming, including the Chalk the Quad and an outdoor movie.
Kirk said the most attractive event might be the self-guided culinary tour.
"We hope people enjoy it. The self-guided tour features free food samples from over 14 restaurants from 4 to 6 p.m.," Kirk said.
These restaurants will provide different types of food samples, which include pub appetizers, pizza, dessert and a variety of drinks.
Besides free food samples in supply, all restaurants listed on the map will also have special discounts. Kirk suggested participants pick up an event map at check-in stations from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m., which will list the food samples and locations.
'Chow Down in Campustown' is the beginning of the 13 Thursdays, which lasts from May 24 to August 16. During this time, people can get a free Campustown passport by in any participating Campustown business or print it themselves. Coupons for over 20 Campustown businesses will be printed on this passport.
People can get their passports stamped each time they eat in one of these businesses on Thursdays between May 24 and August 16. If they can submit their passports with at least 13 stamps at the end of summer, they can enter a drawing. One winner will get a $250 gift card to the Illini Union Bookstore.
Sidewalk chalk art on the Main Quad is another activity of 'Chow Down in Campustown,' which is open from 4 to 8 p.m.
"Chalk the Quad is sidewalk chalk art drawn by event attendees. We encourage participants to have fun and find their inner artist," Kirk said.
In evening, the cartoon movie "Peter Rabbit" will be shown at 9 p.m. on the Main Quad as a part of the Summer Quad Cinema Series.
"The Illini Union is our event sponsor. Each summer they organize the Summer Quad Film Series. I understand they selected 'Peter Rabbit' to appeal to a family-friendly audience," Kirk said.
Kirk said she overall hopes 'Chow Down in Campustown' will encourage more local residents to visit the Campustown area.
"Our main audience is Chambana residents and families that typically do not frequent Campustown when the University is in session. We invite students who are here for the summer to come out and enjoy as well." Kirk said.

Parliament's problem isn't anti-Brexit protests outside. It lies within
Ian Jack
Activists wanted answers from Arron Banks at his select committee hearing. But MPs just aped his smug jocularity
Sat 16 Jun 2018 01.00 EDT Last modified on Sat 16 Jun 2018 11.42 EDT
Illustration by Matt Kenyon
On every day that parliament has sat since September last year, Steven Bray has positioned himself across the road from Downing Street or the Palace of Westminster and shouted "STOP BREXIT!" whenever a suitable target presents itself: usually a black ministerial car ferrying a government politician between one place and the other. His voice is loud and commanding, and sometimes he stretches the syllable in the first word, "STAAWWP BREXIT!", as he runs to the pavement's edge waving a hybrid flag that combines the union jack with the 12 stars of Europe.
SNP MPs walk out of Commons in protest over Brexit debate
Steve is perhaps the most interesting human spectacle in Whitehall after the Queen's Life Guard. He wears a blue top hat and a blue T-shirt decorated with the words "Stand Of Defiance European Movement", at first sight a clumsy title until you realise that the initials make SODEM, which is how Steve feels about the Brexiteers. The surprise is that he isn't one of them, as a 48-year-old numismatist from Port Talbot in south Wales who had an army childhood and deals in English/British coins minted since the reign of Edward VI
– and whose get-up, let's face it, isn't all that different to John Bull's.
Of course, he isn't. During a demonstration outside parliament this week, I asked him why Wales had voted to leave. "After austerity, nobody was going to vote for the government," he said. "Every deprived area wanted to leave. They wanted hope. The injustice is that those areas are going to pay the biggest price." As proof of the argument, he compared prosperous Cardiff (which voted 60% remain) to depressed Swansea (51.5% leave).
His life is now entirely given over to protest. Sometimes he stands shouting alone. More often he is the noisy centrepiece of a small group of anti-Brexit activists – people who, like him, devote their days to making their cause visible and theatrical. How much effect they have is hard to know – they are certainly small beer compared with organisations such as Open Britain, which has 550,000 Facebook followers, and three months ago moved into a shared office with seven other anti-Brexit groups at Millbank Tower, which is only a lobbyist's stroll away from the Commons; or Best for Britain, to which George Soros has given £800,000. But what these little pavement groups lack in numbers, they make up for in intensity and belief, as though they were trying to forestall the question "What did you do in the war, Mummy?" as well as the United Kingdom's departure from the EU.
Their commitment is shaming, and perhaps also slightly alarming. Earlier this month I spent a late afternoon with Gareth Steel, a retired British civil servant who spent many years in Germany and Brussels, seconded to the Foreign Office as specialist in agriculture and trade. His enthusiasm is Marcel Proust, the novelist to whom he devoted his doctoral thesis and continues to write scholarly papers on, and as we sat in the cafe in St James's Park he tried to explain his theories about Proust's use of chronology and time – unsuccessfully so far as I was concerned, because I have never read Proust. It struck me that our little scene perfectly caricatured the Daily Mail's idea of the "liberal metropolitan elite": two milksops discuss an effete French novelist over tea in central London. But then, as we walked through the arch from Horse Guards Parade to Whitehall, where Steel was joining the evening vigil, a great and thrilling change came over him. He unfurled a flag and hurried across the road, and in no time at all was jeering with the best of them at any car leaving Downing Street. Since the referendum, protest has taken up far more of his time than Proust.
Like all political movements, Steel's group (No10Vigil) trades in souvenirs: flags, badges, T-shirts for the Proms ("Thank EU for the Music") and blue and yellow berets for the big London march on 23 June. I liked the persuasive 50-guinea notes issued by the Imperial Bank of Brexit, which have a portrait of a top-hatted Jacob Rees-Mogg with some cod Latin beside it (Superium Pompisi Prattus) and the usual pledge to the bearer replaced with the words: "I promise to pay myself more than you."
All were available on Tuesday at a Pies Not Lies demo outside parliament, together with jam tarts made by the Proust scholar's wife and other baked goods. There was a decent crowd, and passing tourist buses and cars regularly honked their support. I met a couple of women from Bath – it was Bath for Europe that commissioned the berets and the Rees-Mogg notes – and a serious man from the east Midlands, who pointed out that changing the Brexit mindset in his part of the world, which includes the fiercely Europhobe towns of Boston and Spalding, was a more daunting proposition than it might be in, say, Bath. Other than a young man promoting a stunt involving dogs – a "wooferendum" – people under 30 were hard to find. This was generally noted as a worrying augury for turnout on the big march.
The gothic stonework of Augustus Pugin and Charles Barry loomed over us. Inside, only a few hours earlier, the businessman Arron Banks and his sidekick Andy Wigmore had given their evidence to the digital, culture, media and sport select committee; or rather they had produced a tour de force of condescension to an underprepared group of MPs who couldn't work out a way of not being condescended to. The committee's too-eager-to-please chair, Damian Collins, had succumbed from the start to their smug jocularity, which said: we are all men of the world, but we are bigger men of the world than you are.
The mood became infectious. "Fellas, hang on!" said committee member Christian Matheson at one point, before correcting himself: "Gentlemen – sorry." "No, fellas is all right," said Banks. So there could be no reprimand when Banks said: "I pay a shedload of tax, probably more than this entire committee put together … I'm not gonna be lectured about my business interests." Or when he asked of the wrong person: "Are you the MP who got drunk in the House of Commons [at a karaoke evening] and harassed a woman?" Or when he put it to the committee, with no demurral on its part, that he knew they were "all remainers – all remainers, right?" who had a vested interest in trying to discredit the Brexit campaign.
Banks funded Ukip and the Leave.EU campaign fronted by Nigel Farage that focused on immigration, which in the opinion of Banks and many others was the single biggest factor in Brexit's success. It is hard to know what he believes in, other than that politicians are owed no deference, and you may as well have a laugh.
The next day the Scottish National party staged their walkout from the chamber. Westminster seems beleaguered. The protests in the streets around it are part of a long tradition that, in their case, understands the meaning of respect. But the real parliamentary crisis – the crisis of legitimacy – started from within.

JAMMU, Aug 30: The workers of Dogra Front & Shiv Sena under the leadership of their president, Ashok Gupta, held a protest in Jammu city demanding abrogation of Article 35 A.
Wearing black clothes, the workers raised slogans in support of their demands. They said that Article 35A was not added to the Constitution by following the procedure prescribed for amendment of the Constitution of India under Article 368.
Article 370 does not anywhere confer on the President legislative or executive powers so vast that he can amend the Constitution or perform the function of Parliament. It was brought about by the executive organ when actually the right of amendment of the Constitution lies with the legislative organ.
Stating that it violates the Article 14 for the equality of the law, Ashok Gupta said that Article 35A should be repealed for the betterment of the State.

NYPD 'Options' program builds trust between teens, police
So much has changed from just one week before the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown hit New York City. Though a lot has changed, the NYPD's "Options" program still persists. "Options" bridges relationships between police and some of the city's toughest neighborhoods. With a rise in shootings and violence, it is needed now more than ever.

So much has changed from just one week before the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown hit New York City.
Though a lot has changed, the NYPD's "Options" program still persists.
"Options" bridges relationships between police and some of the city's toughest neighborhoods.
With a rise in shootings and violence, it is needed now more than ever.
Just a few weeks before a worldwide pandemic and months before nationwide unrest over racial injustice and police brutality, there was NYC youth engaging in candid conversations with members of the NYPD.
The program has been two years running and bridges the gap between the police and the city's dynamic youth.
"This is the new era of neighborhood policing, and we see that NYC has to open up a lot more and really start listening to the youth of tomorrow," Det. Jason Anazagasty said.
A virtual reality program was also created, scripted and voiced by "Options" teens.
It includes real-life scenarios that play out through a virtual reality headset.
Their choices on how to handle cyberbullying, violence on the streets and so much are on full display — as are the consequences of those choices.
Det. Anazagasty helped create the program with the help of the Police Foundation and community schools and leaders.
He said "Options" is breaking barriers, and most importantly it is working.
While the ongoing pandemic has paused some planned expansions of the "Options" program to other parts of the country, Anazagasty said it will not stop in NYC and he hopes it will only grow.
This story was first reported by Narmeen Choudhury at WPIX in New York City, New York.
