Vital Strategies Congratulates City of Fortaleza on New Drink Driving Campaign
(New York, USA) – Vital Strategies today congratulated city leaders in Fortaleza, Brazil, for the launch of a new mass media campaign aimed at curbing drink driving, a major road safety risk factor that contributes to over 1.25 million road-related deaths around the world annually.
In partnership with Vital Strategies and the Bloomberg Initiative for Global Road Safety (BIGRS), Fortaleza's campaign will focus on the severe consequences of drinking and driving, such as crashes causing serious injury and death, the devastating effect this has on families of victims as well as drivers, and the legal penalties of violating drink driving traffic laws. The public service announcement (PSA) for the campaign can be viewed here.
Road crashes are the leading cause of death globally for those aged 15-29 years. In Fortaleza, 278 people died last year as a result of road-related crashes that could have been prevented.
A recent study by the Brazilian National Health Survey found that 24.3% of motorists in Brazil acknowledge driving even after drinking, making drink driving interventions key in reducing deaths on Brazilian roads. Men aged 18-59 years are the primary victims of crashes caused by drinking and driving in Fortaleza.
"We congratulate the City of Fortaleza and Mayor Roberto Claudio for their commitment to combatting drink driving, and to reducing road traffic deaths and injuries. A strong, hard-hitting media campaign accompanied by thorough police enforcement efforts will help save lives and make Fortaleza's roads safer," said Kelly Larson of Bloomberg Philanthropies.
In coordination with the campaign, Fortaleza's Municipal Agency of Traffic and Citizenship (AMC) will have increased presence in bars and restaurants to raise awareness about the deadly dangers of mixing alcohol consumption and driving, and local law enforcement will increase inspections on the roads to uphold drink driving traffic laws.
"When people get behind the wheel after consuming even a small amount of alcohol, they put the safety of themselves and others at severe risk," said José Luis Castro, President and Chief Executive Officer of Vital Strategies. "Evidence shows that mass media campaigns and enforcement can change motorists' risky behavior, and we are grateful that Fortaleza is taking the severity of drink driving seriously to save lives."
The campaign is part of a global, 10-city program spearheaded by BIGRS and coordinated by Vital Strategies to reduce road crashes and deaths in major cities around the world.
Vital Strategies envisions a world where every person is protected by a strong public health system. Our team combines evidence-based strategies with innovation to help develop sound public health policies, manage programs efficiently, strengthen data systems, conduct research, and design strategic communication campaigns for policy and behavior change.

I have an 06 mountaineer with the 4.0 V6, lately the ABS light and traction control light (car with skids behind it) have come on and a wrench is indicated in the info box. They eventually clear after a while but today my wife called and told me that it seemed like the front right tire wanted to lock up and hesitated. We have had some severe weather here in NJ so would this have anything to do with it? What could be some things I would do to get this fixed? Any help would be great, I am not mechanically inclined so I don't want to get screwed by a shop that does more than what is needed. Thank you very much in advance.
First off, check the brake fluid levels. Make sure it's where it should be. If it's low, you could have air in the lines and just need to bleed the brakes (and find the leak). As for other issues, I'm afraid that's about the extent of my ABS knowledge. I'm pretty sure the traction control is tied in with the ABS system so the issues are probably related. I know I've had issues with one wheel trying to lock up trying to stop when I've had air in the lines before and with an ABS system, that can cause the ABS to not work at all.
It does seem to be tied in to the traction control, that would explain why the traction control icon is displayed with the ABS icon. I checked the fluid levels and it was in between the minimum and maximum, the shop I went to (and halfway trust) said that it could be as simple as a brake system flush, could also be a wheel speed sensor (?) or an ABS module. Does this sound feasible?
resetting the computer won't help. The only things that disable the ABS (which will hinder or disable the traction control since it uses the ABS system) are problems with the ABS system. Resetting the computer won't fix that. The problem has to be fixed. Hesitation on acceleration sounds like there could be vacuum issues and/or airflow issues. Is there something clogging the air filter? Check the vacuum lines that go to the brake booster (big can that the master cylinder is mounted on - there should be one vacuum hose about an inch around that goes to it). The check valve on the booster may be suspect as well. Check all around for vacuum hoses that have come loose.
And yes, it could be a wheel speed sensor (pulling the codes from the computer may tell this tale) or the ABS module. It could also be a loose wire harness to any of the wheel sensors or the ABS module. Sometimes in wet weather, water gets into some harnesses and causes corrosion which can make the connections resistive and cause issues like this. You may need to check all the related electrical connections and make sure they're in good condition.
I checked and all the connections seem to be ok, I'll have to take it in to someone who can read the codes and see what comes of it. It's a fairly decent shop so I trust what they come up with, I'll post here in a bit with what they find. Hopefully nothing to expensive, although my luck seems to run pretty pricey. Thank you for all your help.

The opening session of Arctic Frontiers 2019 garnered a lot of attention. Among many other reasons, for the fact that this was the first time that a high-level panel, at one of the largest Arctic conferences, was composed solely of women.
The Norwegian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ine Eriksen Søreide, United States Senator for Alaska, Lisa Murkowski, President of the Sami Parliament of Norway, Aili Keskitalo, and Finnish MEP Katri Kulmuni, together with women scientists and analysts, discussed "The State of the Arctic" and beyond. Stephen Sackur of BBC's HardTalk, who moderated the discussion, was an apparent outlier on stage.
The afternoon sessions, focusing on smart and resilient Arctic societies, highlighted further questions relating to gender and gender equality, as well as the role that both can play in the sustainable development of the circumpolar North. During this plenary, the audience raised a poignant question: when it comes to gender and gender equality, what can other Arctic countries learn from the Nordic states? An excellent question that, we believe, necessitates a lengthier response than the time allocated within a conference setting.
So, before going any further, let us first ask - why should other countries learn from the Nordics when it comes to gender equality?
The Nordic countries, even if not all of them, frequently rank high in various indexes measuring gender equality. In the World Economic Forum's Global Gender Gap Index, Iceland has topped the ranks as the most gender-equal country in the world for the last ten years, followed closely by Norway, Finland and Sweden (as well as by Nicaragua, Rwanda and Namibia which ranked higher than, for instance, Denmark which ranked 13th) in 2018. When we look at the Nordic region overall, more women have jobs than in most of the rest of the world (here Denmark positions itself at 5th place) and a greater proportion of women than men has higher education, even though this does not necessarily close the gender pay gap, which remains around 16 per cent (the European Union average). Most Nordic countries also maintain relatively balanced gender representation in their parliaments, with an average female representation of 40 per cent. In many respects, the successes of the Nordics in advancing gender equality over the last decades can certainly serve as inspiration for and sources of important lessons for other Arctic states. There are, however, other important aspects – not all positive – which also deserve our attention when we speak about gender in the Arctic.
What are those lessons, good and bad?
The first important lesson is that change, in terms of ensuring women's equal rights and the greater participation of women in public life, is possible. Iceland serves as the primary example. Unlike the other Nordic countries, where the rise in women's political representation has been more gradual, the establishment of the Women's Alliance in Iceland in 1982 led to a dramatic increase in the number of women elected to Icelandic parliament in 1983 – from five to fifteen out of a total of sixty. The Women's Alliance not only helped boost the number of female representatives, but its program centered around mainstreaming issues like the provision of childcare to enable women to participate in the labor market.
Second, in seeking to achieve gender equality, the experience of the Nordic countries points to the importance of systemic solutions and state support. It does not necessarily mean that all countries should go out and strive to replicate the Nordic welfare model in its entirety. However, a good start for all Arctic states would be to, for example, provide affordable childcare which, together with flexible working hours, supports both women and men seeking to join, or return to, the labor market.
Fourth, it is extremely important that we do not solely focus on economic gender equality, which frequently overshadows the darker side of life in the Nordic countries, namely very high ranks of violence against women (including intimate partner violence), significantly higher than the EU average. Disturbingly, and despite different state models, shockingly high rates of violence against women seem to be a unifying factor across all Arctic states.
Fifth, we should not fall prey to assumptions that the high scores of the Nordic countries translate evenly across their territories, especially north of the Arctic Circle. Thus, when speaking about and sharing lessons among Arctic countries, rather than comparing gender equality in the Nordic states to that of Canada, the United States or Russia, we should focus explicitly on the northern regions of those countries, where the realities can often starkly differ from those south of the Arctic Circle. To help address this issue, we must begin to start collecting gender-disaggregated data in a systematic manner across the North, to develop policies that would be better tailored to serve all societal groups, including those who are underrepresented.
So, while there are, indeed, many lessons that other Arctic countries could learn from the Nordics when it comes to gender equality, some of those lessons are less obvious than common knowledge suggests. What we propose is that, given that the Arctic is at the forefront of significant global change, it is high time that Arctic states begin to do things differently on many fronts – and gender equality should be their landmark, across all societal, political and economic dimensions. Not only would it be timely, but it would also be a great rebranding of circumpolar collaboration. After all, ensuring gender equality is the only certain way to achieve sustainable development in a rapidly changing world. In short, it's time to make gender Plan A for the Arctic.

Lynyrd Skynyrd – Tokyo Crossroads (Tarantura TCDLS – 3)
Tokyo Crossroads (Tarantura TCDLS – 3)
Sun Plaza Hall, Nakano, Tokyo, Japan – January 21, 1977
Disc 1: (45:22) Opening, Start, Workin' For MCA, I Ain't The One, Saturday Night Special, Whiskey Rock-A-Roller, That Smell, Ain't No Good Life, Gimme Three Steps, Call Me The Breeze
Disc 2: (35:52) T For Texas, Sweet Home Alabama, Crossroads, Freebird
After a couple of warm up dates in California and a stop in Hawaii, Lynyrd Skynyrd headed to Japan for a five date two city tour. They played January 14-16th in Tokyo, January 18th at the Festival Hall in Osaka and then back to Tokyo for the final show on January 21st. This would sadly be the original band's only visit to Japan due to the plane crash later in the year that would claim the lives of band members Ronnie Van Zant, Steve Gaines, Cassie Gaines, and assistant road manager Dean Kilpatrick.
Tokyo Crossroads from Tarantura features a brand new audience source for Lynyrd Skynyrd's January 21, 1977 performance. An older source has been released on silver disc before as One More From The Last Night, a single CD on the Private Masters label. Tarantura comes from a previously uncirculated Mr. Peach tape and is another very enjoyable recording from his never ending cache of tapes. It is a nice loud recording with a decent balance between the instruments and has a really great live atmosphere to it.
JoJo Billingsly, Cassie Gaines, and Leslie Hawkins, AKA "The Honkettes", were a regular part of the touring band in addition to official members Ronnie Van Zant on vocals, Gary Rossington, Allen Collins, and Steve Gaines on guitars, Billy Powell on keyboards, and Leon Wilkeson and Artimus Pyle on bass and drums respectively.
The show opens with a pre-recorded tape of "The Magnificent Seven" before rolling through a couple of early staples with "Working For MCA" and "I Ain't The One". Gary Rossington and Allen Collins helped define their unique southern rock sound with their guitar styles and with the addition of Steve Gaines, who was brought in about seven months earlier to fill the void left by Ed King, the three guitar ensemble was once again complete.
"Saturday Night Special" brings out the heavier side of the band. This adds a nice contrast in comparison with songs like the feel good "Whiskey Rock-A-Roller", both from the Nuthin' Fancy LP.
The still unreleased "That Smell" is performed very close to its final studio version with only a couple of the solos being different. This is really an outstanding track with a more complex arrangement than we are used to hearing from Skynyrd. This was perhaps a peek at where their writing was headed. Up next, Steve Gaines takes over on lead vocal for "Ain't No Good Life" listed as "I Don't Need Love" on the back cover. Gaines delivers a strong bluesy vocal on the self-penned track that would also be included on the forthcoming Street Survivors. It was obvious when the record came out what a big influence he had on the sound of the band.
Skynyrd revisits the first LP for "Gimme Three Steps". This runs non-stop with the J.J. Cale original, "Call Me The Breeze", no doubt the best of any song ever covered by the band. Rossington rips out an amazing solo identical to its studio counterpart followed by some pretty intense piano from Billy Powell. "T For Texas" was written by Jimmie Rodgers also known as "Blue Yodel No. 1". This was a common addition to their live show around this time played in an arrangement very similar to the Allman Brothers' version of "One Way Out". The main set closes on a high note with "Sweet Home Alabama".
For the first encore, the boys pay homage to Robert Johnson as well as Cream with a cover of "Crossroads" played almost identical to Cream's live version from Wheels Of Fire. No Skynyrd show is complete without the southern rock anthem "Freebird". The thirteen minute track acts as the perfect climax to an already great performance.
This is only the second Lynyrd Skynyrd title from Tarantura but by the looks of the catalog number (TCDLS-3) there should be another one out at some point. It comes packaged in a gatefold glossy cardboard case with really nice looking picture discs and opens up to some era photos including a photo of Mr. Peach's master tapes. Tokyo Crossroads is highly recommended to Skynyrd fans, southern rock enthusiasts, and anyone who enjoys a good Mr. Peach recording.

I agree. After hearing the Mr. Peach recording, I have no reason to seek out the other source.

Sorry, I don't own the Private Masters title so I really can't say. If I had to guess, I would say it probably doesn't sound as good as the Mr. Peach tape.

Music and lyrics: Cole Porter
Cole Porter wrote 'I Get a Kick Out of You' in 1931 for the Broadway musical Star Dust, which never got to be produced.
Some years later, he included the song in another musical called Anything Goes, which was released on 21 November 1934 in the Alvin Theatre of New York. The libretto was based on a Guy Bolton and P. G. Wodehouse's play, revised by Howard Linsay and Russell Crouse. The music and the lyrics were Cole Porter's, the stage management director was Howard Lindsay, the choreographer, Robert Alton, and the main artists, William Gaxton, Ethel Merman, and Victor Moore. In the first act, Gaxton and Merman sang 'I Get a Kick Out of You'. Other songs included in the musical were 'Anything Goes', 'You're the Top', and 'All Through the Night'.
The musical was very successful among the audience and the critics and it has four hundred and twenty performances. Right after being withdrawn from the theatres, Paramount Pictures produces a cinema version, Anything Goes (1936), directed by Lewis Milestone and starring Bing Crosby, Ethel Merman, Charles Ruggles, and Ida Lupino.

Activists Call on Canada to Back Heroin, Cocaine, Meth Buyer's Clubs
On August 31, International Overdose Awareness Day, drug-user activists in British Columbia formally petitioned the Canadian federal government to operate buyer's clubs for heroin, cocaine and methamphetamine without fear of arrest. Amid historic drug overdose deaths in BC—overwhelmingly attributable to the adulteration of unregulated supply—they want to protect people by offering a reliable source of checked drugs.
The Vancouver Area Network of Drug Users (VANDU) and Drug User Liberation Front (DULF) submitted an open letter to Health Canada, the national public health department. It requests a formal exemption from federal criminal drug law—specifically, under Section 56 (I) of the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (CDSA)—so that no one is prosecuted for possession or trafficking over a "compassion club" model to purchase, test and distribute drugs to members without profit.
"The DULF Fulfillment Center and Compassion Club model is saving lives right now," the letter states, "and will save more if we are permitted to continue our work with federal authorization." It describes the mission of DULF, a coalition of people who use drugs and their allies, as having "historically meant operating episodic [cocaine, heroin and methamphetamine] compassion clubs."
"We are prepared to undertake such action, and hope that you will support our efforts. Lives depend on it."
DULF and VANDU have also on several occasions organized direct actions in which they handed out small quantities of free, checked drugs through direct actions in the Vancouver area. They did this on the day they sent the open letter.
The compassion club model is supported by researchers. In 2019, the BC Centre on Substance Use released a white paper calling for heroin compassion clubs. It noted that the model is "inspired by cannabis compassion clubs and buyers clubs, both of which emerged in the 1980s and 1990s in response to the AIDS epidemic."
How It Would Work in Practice
DULF purchases heroin, methamphetamine and cocaine from dark web sellers. "Purchasing online has the benefit of reducing interactions and potential violence from buying in-person, and due to the nature of these darknet markets, vendors would remain anonymous," the letter states. It expresses the hope that the government itself will begin purchasing the drugs and sell them to DULF through pharmaceutical sources.
The group would then store these drugs in a secure, double-locked site, and keep close inventory records of when drugs are added or dispensed. Importantly, organizers would test the drugs themselves using FTIR spectroscopy technology, plus fentanyl and benzodiazepine strips. FTIR is a sophisticated drug-checking tool, unavailable to most drug users, to which DULF has access through the BC Centre on Substance Use.
After confirming purity, DULF would package and label the drugs to clearly identify the content. "In a similar fashion to tobacco labeling, the packaging is also plain," the letter continues, "with warnings of the highly addictive nature of the substances and impairing effects, and with warnings to not operate any vehicles or machinery."
DULF would then distribute the supply to local drug-user groups. The groups would in turn purchase the drugs and sell them to their eligible members. All members of participating drug-user groups would have to be over 18 years of age.
It will represent a historic milestone in international efforts to roll back the drug war. More importantly, it will have an immediate impact on safety.
In order to pay for drugs and other costs under this system, DULF and the smaller drug-user groups might choose to charge membership fees or raise donations. At the same time, according to the letter, "with increased consumer purchasing power through the collective it is expected that costs will be drastically reduced and the financial harms of the war on drugs on people who use drugs will be drastically reduced."
The letter requests a decision from Health Canada by October 15. If DULF and VANDU's request is granted, it will represent a historic milestone in international efforts to roll back the drug war. More importantly, it will have an immediate impact on the safety of compassion club members.
"We are prepared to undertake such action," the letter states, "and hope that you will support our efforts and provide the necessary federal exemptions needed to operate our program in a sanctioned manner. Lives depend on it."

5 Horrifying Places Real People Got Trapped and Forgotten
Eric Yosomono ·
Ivan Farkas ·
Hillery Alley ·
The big difference between daily life now and a hundred years ago is that today you're always being watched. If you went missing, it wouldn't be long before your friends noticed you were no longer updating Facebook or Instagramming your lunch, and within hours the cops would find the security camera footage of you getting buried under a pallet of dog food at Costco.
The truth is that even in the modern world, people just ... fall through the cracks. The stories are more frequent -- and more horrifying -- than you'd think. And be warned: The entries on this list start escalating in severity fast.
Nicholas White Was Stuck in an Elevator for 41 Hours
DAJ/amana images/Getty Images
On the evening of October 15, 1999, Nicholas White was working at the McGraw-Hill Building in New York City and went down to the ground level to have a smoke. After a refreshing nicotine hit, he headed back up to his 43rd floor office via an express elevator that skips floors 1 through 39.
Fuse/Fuse/Getty Images
"Good thing we installed these express elevators, otherwise it might take a long time to get up there."
On his way up, the elevator unexpectedly stopped. White hit the alarm and waited. Nothing. He investigated his surroundings -- there was nothing in his 6-by-6 box. No warning text, no elevator emergency phone, not even a mirror with which to check out his beautiful '90s mullet. So he waited some more. After all, how long could it really take for someone to notice that the elevator had never arrived? Half an hour? An hour?
Time passed. No one came. Starting to get desperate, White tried to pry the door open, presumably planning to climb down the elevator shaft like in Die Hard. Instead, he was met with a solid concrete wall with the number 13 stenciled on it. That's the thing about an express elevator -- it doesn't stop at those floors, so there were no openings. It was 39 floors of solid concrete shaft. White could do nothing but stand there for the rest of the afternoon. And into the night. And then overnight. Then all day the next day.
Comstock Images/Stockbyte/Getty
Giving all of his co-workers a free scapegoat for the day.
All told, White was stuck in that little metal box for 41 fucking hours, on the unlucky 13th floor, no less, with nothing but three matches, his wallet, and some cigarettes. No food, no water, no bathroom, and no indication that anyone was making any effort whatsoever to get him out. All he could do was pace around in dead silence (he kept the alarm going for as long as possible, but the constant ringing caused him to have auditory hallucinations). This is where you have to wonder if maybe your employers don't care about you quite as much as they say they do.
"That's horrifying," you say, "Why don't they have cameras or something in those elevators?" Oh, they do. Here's his entire ordeal, compressed into a three-minute clip and uploaded to YouTube:
At two minutes in, you see him try to climb out of the hatch at the top (it was locked) and repeatedly open the doors as if at some point he'd magically see something other than concrete there (some of those times, he's pissing down the shaft). So, yes, you now understand the truly disturbing part of this story: None of the security guards paid close enough attention to those video feeds to notice that there was a guy frantically trying to escape Car 30 for nearly two days. Five different shifts went by, this man trapped in plain sight, until finally someone noticed that, wait a second, there's a dude sleeping on the floor of one of the elevators.
At first a security guard thought a bum had sneaked into the building, so he buzzed the intercom to ask what was going on. After White determined that it wasn't God speaking, but an idiot security guard, he showed his ID to the camera and a mechanic was sent to free him from his prison. Yet the building staff couldn't even get that right -- when the elevator doors opened and White could see farther than 6 feet in any direction for the first time in 41 hours, he burst out into the hallway, only to see that the maintenance crew was waiting for him at the wrong elevator door down the hall.
Medioimages/Photodisc/Photodisc/Getty Images
"I don't think this is the right one. There's no poop corner."
White sued, and found himself embroiled in a much longer ordeal. The case dragged out for four years, until a homeless, penniless, and jobless White settled for a small undisclosed sum. That also means that he can't even sell his story, like that guy who got stuck in the airport whose story was made into a Tom Hanks movie.
That Time The USA Wanted To Turn The Earth Into A Death Star
A French Grandmother Got Stuck in the Bathroom for Three Weeks
You could argue that it's better to be trapped in a bathroom than an elevator -- at least there you can relieve yourself, and you have water to drink. But what if instead of a healthy young man, it was an elderly woman? And what if her imprisonment was 10 times as long?
805promo/iStock/Getty Images
If you're a boy in puberty, this is known as "the jackpot."
This one happened in a Paris suburb where, after using the facilities and trying to leave, a French grandmother found that her door lock was broken. While busting down jammed doors may simply be an inconvenience for burly Olympic athletes, it's a much tougher task for a 69-year-old grandmother with zero heavy sled-pushing experience, especially a French one. We suppose she could have surrendered to the door, but in this situation that probably wouldn't have helped.
Days passed. With no phone (an unthinkable prospect for most people going to the bathroom these days), she tried to alert neighbors to her distress by banging against the pipes at night, but all it did was annoy them. They had no idea the noises were a cry for help, and instead assumed the apartment complex was undergoing late-night construction. At one point a group of tenants started a petition to end the presumed maintenance work, as it was keeping them awake. To be fair, once they found out what had truly happened, they were appropriately horrified at the prospect. After almost three weeks of noise, someone finally caught on when they noticed the woman's absence and a stack of gathering mail.
But only after the petition to "move that old bag's mail" had gathered the required signatures.
By the time French firefighters broke through to free the woman from her apartment turned prison, she had been trapped for 20 days. She should be applauded for her feat of Les Stroud-ian endurance, considering she survived solely on tap water and (presumably) a previously untouched bowl of hard candies from the late 1970s.
If you're insisting to yourself that you wouldn't let a flimsy bathroom door keep you from kicking your way to freedom, even in old age, would you say the same about a bank vault?
That Autonomous Trashcan Will Get Stuck On Everything
A-91-Year-Old Got Locked Inside a Bank Vault
Digital Vision./Photodisc/Getty
A 91-year-old Frenchwoman residing in Rennes had some business to attend to at her nearest BNP-Paribas bank as part of her Saturday errands. The bank employee locked the vault after leading the woman inside to her safety deposit box, which is most likely bank protocol. What was not bank protocol, however, was having an epic brain fart and forgetting about the customer, leaving her in there for the rest of the day.
Keith Brofsky/Photodisc/Getty Images
"Uhh ... it is bank protocol to not tell my manager about this."
"But surely they remembered her at the end of the day, before going home?" you undoubtedly ask. "After all, somebody has to do some kind of vault check before everybody goes home for the night, right?" Nope, they just left her in there and turned out the lights, leaving her without any way to alert anyone of her predicament, since she was 91 freaking years old and didn't own a cellphone.
And if she was simply facing the prospect of an overnight stay in the vault until the staff came in the next day, that would be one thing. But remember, this was a Saturday, which meant the bank would not reopen until the following Tuesday (hey, it's Europe), which is a hell of a lot of time to be stuck in a vault for anyone at any age, but did we mention that she was 91? Yeah, if nobody intervened, they were going to open that door on Tuesday and find a goddamned corpse.
"But nobody would have been able to steal her body, and that's what is really important here."
Thankfully, her son was worried after not hearing from his mother for a whole day and called the authorities. After retracing her steps and visiting all the elderly woman hotspots she frequented, they wound up at the bank. After some frantic calls, the bank manager arrived and was at long last able to get the vault open ... the next morning, at 10:00 a.m. Fortunately the woman was unharmed, with only a bit of dehydration. And, we imagine, seething with 91-year-old-woman rage.
WARNING: The stories get much, much worse from here.
5 Dick Moves Your Bank Pulls (You Won't Believe Are Legal)
People Keep Getting Forgotten in Solitary Confinement
fergregory/iStock/Getty Images
We said that the people in the previous entries were "imprisoned" in those rooms or elevators, but of course that's not really accurate -- you're never more watched than when you're in prison. You're meticulously supervised by staff, you have a lawyer you can call if things go sour, and everyone is operating under an umbrella of laws meant to preserve your rights. So, "Lock him up and throw away the key!" is really just a humorous figure of speech.
Usually.
Joshua Engler/Hemera/Getty Images
Slightly more frequent than "Do you feel lucky?" mostly because .44 Magnum rounds are kind of expensive.
But then we have stories like Daniel Chong's. Chong, a college student, was hanging with his buddy, who happened to be the friendly neighborhood drug dealer. While Chong was chilling on the couch, police crashed the buddy's house and took everyone to jail. After questioning, Chong was quickly identified as just a visitor and was put in a solitary cell to be dealt with later. And then they completely forgot about him. Literally -- it was just like how sometimes you'll stick something in the microwave and then get distracted and forget about it until hours later. Only it was a human being.
And they forgot about him for four days.
Tristin Hurst/Hemera/Getty Images
"Did you hear something from that cell?"
"Eh, we'll let Future Nick and Future Wayne deal with that."
That's four days during which Chong was stuck in a windowless cell, without food or water, still handcuffed (he started having hallucinations on Day 3).
Convinced that he'd been left to die and distraught at not being able to talk to his family one more time, Chong tried to carve a message to his mother into his body. Finally, officers became curious about the weird banging in what was supposed to be an empty cell, and probably only investigated because they thought the jail was haunted. They opened the door to find Chong, covered in his own filth. He was rushed to the hospital and spent five days recovering from dehydration, kidney failure, cramps, and a perforated esophagus. He was also 15 pounds lighter. The DEA issued an apology and gave Chong a $4 million settlement as a sort of "Sorry for almost killing you" coupon.
"Do you have a card along the lines of 'sorry for the wrongful imprisonment and almost death'? Maybe like a talking cat, or something?"
And yet his story is nothing compared to Stephen Slevin's.
In 2005, Slevin was pulled over in rural New Mexico for a suspected DUI. Normally this means an overnight stay while you sober up, but Slevin showed signs of mental illness, and the police feared he was a suicide risk. So, they stuck him in solitary confinement. And then, once again, they kind of just left him there. Days passed, and then weeks. Slevin's pleas for information about his case fell on deaf ears.
Weeks turned into months. Slevin wasn't allowed to shave and was only rarely allowed to shower. His clothes were rotting off his body, and the prison staff refused to give him more. Every day, prison staff walked by his cell and gave him food, but ignored his increasingly desperate attempts to get help. After his tooth started to rot, they refused him a trip to the dentist, so Slevin had to pull it out himself.
Dona Ana County Corrections Dept. via The Telegraph
He was still charged a $50 copay by his HMO.
So, how long do you think a man could be left in solitary before somebody -- a jail official, a lawyer, somebody -- stopped to ask why this dude's overnight stay had turned into an indefinite detention? A couple of months? Three?
Try nearly two goddamned years.
At that point they just dropped the charges and set him free. The county appeared to have no explanation for why Slevin was left there (at one point he had been transported to a mental hospital, then inexplicably returned to solitary), and when he sued, he won $22 million, but settled for a lesser amount on appeal (shit, we hope it wasn't much less).
Frizzantine/iStock/Getty Images
"After attorney fees and taxes, you owe the U.S. government $65,000. Cash only."
So how in the hell can we possibly top that story?
6 Shockingly Outdated Problems The US Legal System Won't Fix
A Man Was Imprisoned for 53 Years Because No One Could Speak His Language
Robert Byron/Hemera/Getty Images
Getting sent to a POW camp is no fun, regardless of the war or which army took you prisoner. But there is one benefit -- despite what Rambo would have you believe, usually you get to go home when the fighting is over. But sometimes, in the mass confusion following a horrific conflict, people just ... fall through the cracks.
Take Hungarian Andras Tamas, who was just one of millions of POWs in World War II. He had fought for the Germans and was captured by the Soviets in 1944. The problem was that Tamas went nuts while in the gulags (they'll do that to a person), and thus lost the ability to tell anyone who he was or why he was there. And after he got transferred to a mental hospital, the Soviets (whose system was not exactly a model of efficiency) eventually forgot, too.
Understandable, what with them being so busy building nukes and killing and oppressing their citizens.
With the war long over, the staff who knew the truth -- that he was a Hungarian POW who didn't speak Russian -- moved on to different assignments or just retired. Years passed, and eventually there was no one left who knew Tamas' case history, and they were too lazy to check his files. They were content that there was a crazy man who spoke no Russian, only a weird gibberish, and left it at that.
For half a century.
In their defense, Rosetta Stone doesn't have a Hungarian version.
It wasn't until the late '90s that a visiting foreign doctor recognized that Tamas was actually speaking Hungarian and not an alien tongue he was making up on the fly. Cracking open his medical file for the first time in decades, the doctor found Tamas' case history and quickly notified the authorities in Budapest. The POW finally returned home to a hero's welcome, where he was dubbed "the last prisoner of World War II." Which is a nice title, but we're hoping somebody in Russia is checking to see if there are any more.

RATTLE AND HUM -" THE BEST COVER BAND ON THE MARKET" UNIVERSITY OBSERVER , 30 January 2002.
"The entertainment for the evening was Rattle and Hum, who are the best cover band on the market for my money. The band came out through the crowd and took to the stage with as much confidence as the real thing. They kicked off, as U2 did in Slane last summer, with that jewel of a track "Elevation". The massive track "Beautiful Day" was next and it was alarming how similar "Bono" resembled the real thing.
Playing up to the photographers and the crowd brilliantly all added to the magic of a truly entertainig show. The old favourites came thick and fast, including "11 o'clock tick tock" which was a little treat for me. By the end of the gig, the crowd left the venue happy with the product they got for their money."

President Mauricio Macri's center-right government is struggling to stabilize inflation and reassure markets, but Argentina's small businesses are feeling the pinch in a climate of deep budget cuts and layoffs.
"There are days when not even one client comes in," says hair stylist Monica Pesce in the affluent Buenos Aires suburb of Belgrano.
"I came here because of the population density, I'm in a building with 37 apartments, but now everything is down, I have an empty hairdressing salon," said Pesce.
Pesce pays rent for the premises and also for her home, both subject to twice-yearly increases.
"Anguish and fear" is how she describes the effect of Argentina's soaring inflation, forecast to reach 27 percent this year.
Buenos Aires last month secured a $50 billion loan from the International Monetary Fund but the economic outlook for small businesses like hers remains bleak -- with suppliers and workforces to pay -- and they are the first to feel the pinch of Macri's IMF-driven austerity drive.
Economy Minister Nicolas Dujovne is leading efforts to reassure markets that meeting Argentina's fiscal deficit remains a priority, but analysts say implementing the necessary budget cuts will be difficult.
Some public service layoffs, such as those at the national news agency Telam, are grabbing the headlines, but the effects of the cuts are being keenly felt in the local economy, where small business-owners once rejoiced at Macri's election in 2015.
Luis Miranda has eight employees at his small bakery in Villa Urquiza, on the northern edge of Buenos Aires. In March, he gave them a 15 percent wage rise to keep pace with projected annual inflation.
But since then, the peso has lost more than 25 percent of its value, fuelling further inflation.
"I thought the economy was going to improve, as had been the case since this government came in, but in March prices exploded and it never stopped," Miranda laments.
"This economy is so unpredictable. The price of flour has increased between 300 and 400 percent," he says.
A shuttered small metallurgy business in Buenos Aires, on June 5 2018.
Unlike Pesce, Miranda says he has kept his customers "but consumption has gone down. Nobody is buying a kilo of bread anymore."
To compensate, his company is now selling ready-made lunches to construction laborers or office workers in the area.
According to the Argentina Confederation of Medium-sized Enterprises, retail sales have fallen 2.5 percent in the first five months of 2018.
Having come to power in 2015, Macri broke with the free-spending policies of former leftist president Cristina Kirchner, promising to end the perennial scourge of inflation, which has run at over 20 percent for the last decade.
But there is trouble ahead. Argentina ground to a halt on June 25 as public service unions blocked road, rail and air transport with a nationwide 24-hour strike, a shot across the bows for a government intent on toeing the IMF line.
Gerardo Labozzetta's small factory supplying auto-industry spare parts has been shut down for two years -- hit, he says, by a welter of imported products, particularly from China, and the lack of access to bank credit.
"The opening up of imports has hurt productivity," says the entrepreneur, whose factory provided jobs for 33 people, both directly and indirectly.
Sociologist Ricardo Rouvier says ordinary Argentines are angry over broken promises.
"A promise was broken in the short term that there would be an economic recovery.
"The polls show a drop in the government's popularity, and the majority of the population doesn't see certainty on the horizon that the situation will improve."


This is a Tibet travel diary, about fun things, unforgetable moments, and amazing sceneries along the way to Tibet, and of course, fantastic experience in Tibet! I know I may not come back to this land during my lifetime, but who knows. I will never forget this land, people, and happy words.
Before I really set off to Tibet, it was just a word, a far place in my mind. I thought it was dangerous, bad climate and life-threatened. Anyway, I decided to go, finally. And, Tibet is not a regret to me anymore.
With my friend, we took the train into Lhasa from Chongqing and took the flight out from Lhasa in early April. There were lesser tourists at that time and we felt well. We spent two nights on the train and I don't think it is a good memory. My friend slept in the lower soft sleep, but I have the upper soft sleep. The upper soft sleep is, horrible. The window on the train is not allowed to be open, but we can get off the train when reached the stations along the way. It is better for you to get off when you reach Golmud Station because it will help you to climatize the high altitude gradually. On the second night, the oxygen was provided in the whole coach and the staff taught us how to use the oxygen supply button. Later we started to climb the highest highland on the way to Lhasa - Tanggula Mountain. The altitude of Tanggula Mountain is over 5000 meters. We felt a little headache and other few people started to suffer the slight high altitude sickness, too.
When we went out from the railway station, many soldiers wearing green army uniform are coming into our sight. It made us feel very safe. Well, then walking around, you would not find any green trees anymore in Lhasa.


Today was our last full day here in Nicaragua so that always comes with mixed feelings. All of us have been so impacted by our time here that we want to stay, but we know we must return. We will definitely be building some mental 'altars' like they did in the OT to remember the work that God has done in us and through us.
We started off our day by heading down to Los Cedros. For our camp last year, we took 40 kids from Los Cedros who had never been to camp before. So we were blessed to be able to go to the school in Los Cedros (were we have served before in construction) and see many of the kids who went to camp last year. We also took the tour around the community to see the houses we built in '05 and '08 and visit with the families.
After Los Cedros, we loaded up and drove back into town to do our zip line excursion at Tiscapa, which is a national park here in Nicaragua. It featured three really long runs – two over the canopy of trees and one across a lake. We all had a blast!
We also managed to squeeze in time for our annual visit to the market and our team dinner at Dona Haydees. This construction team has really grown closer to the Lord and each other this trip and I consider it such a privilege to have led both these teams down here. We are overwhelmed by the outpouring of the Spirit on our lives and on the mission God had for us here. Please pray for us as we leave in the morning (4am no less) and that we would have safe travels as we return to the States.

Any dish that ends "…with ginger and chili" I am predisposed to like. It's kind of my current favorite flavor profile. I generally like heat over sweet, and there is something medicinal, healing, about the combination. When I can remember to, I like to start my mornings steeping ginger and chili in hot water, sometimes with a little bit of fresh squeezed lemon, and if I'm feeling a stuffy nose coming on, a tiny bit of honey.
So when I stumbled upon a recipe for a spicy butternut squash soup I perused the ingredient list and liked what I saw: coconut milk, fresh ginger, fresh chili, cilantro, turmeric. This was a recipe for October, for crisp weather and fending off colds. It is warmth in a bowl.
In a large saucepan heat the oil on medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until it turns translucent. Add the ginger, garlic, and chili and sauté for about 1 minute, then add the cumin and turmeric. Stir, then add the carrot and celery and sauté for several minutes until they begin to soften. If the pan gets too dry you can add a spoonful or two of water, so the onions don't stick. Add the squash, broth, and coconut milk, season with salt and pepper, and slowly bring to just before the boil. Turn the heat down and simmer until the squash is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Allow the soup to cool some before transferring to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth, in batches if necessary. You can reheat the soup in its pan before serving if you'd like. Garnish the soup with sliced scallions and parsley or cilantro.
I'm the first to admit I'm a little late to the strawberry rhubarb party this year. It's not my fault! My day job has turned into a day-and-night job leaving little time to tend to matters of the kitchen. Take heart, yesterday morning I woke up with my priorities straight. I ran (literally) to the Fort Greene farmer's market (site of the fiddlehead fiasco a few weeks ago) to fetch strawberries so small and sweet they resembled raspberries and tasted like jam. And I was delighted to see the rhubarb still hanging around, weeks after I first saw it (and rushed by it) at the Union Square Greenmarket.
But what's that I see? Cherries?! I haven't even tasted my first bite of a strawberry-rhubarb crisp this season and already there are cherries to contend with? Maybe next week. Yesterday I was on a mission and would not get distracted, no matter how sweet the cherries looked.
I was after the classic strawberry rhubarb pie. A fool's mission, you may think, given the tendency for strawberries to explode mid-baking, making for a runny mess for your crust to sop up. So call me a fool. I love this particular pie. I love it in June (I love June period). I love it with ice cream or without. I love it standing up in a Brooklyn kitchen late at night or in a backyard in Vermont. And most importantly, so does my grandmother, and I wanted her to have a big ole piece of it.
I thought about fussing of course. I picked up and smelled the herbs at the market, wondering at first how sage would go with these flavors, then thyme, then mint. And then wondered about balsamic vinegar and black pepper, before deciding to keep it simple. Well, mostly simple.
The only two additions I allowed were freshly grated ginger and lemon zest, just to spice things up a bit without going completely rogue. I love the combination of rhubarb and ginger, and that of strawberry and lemon. The proof was in the filling: when baked this pie was not too sweet, but lusciously fruity, jammy, June-y, tart, with just a hint of the lemon and ginger to elevate the senses.
And fear not—the pie crust took all of five, maybe eight, minutes to make, and no food processor or pulsing required. I'd been wanting to try Cook's Illustrated recipe using vodka in place of the water. The theory is that vodka, in large part pure alcohol, provides the necessary liquid to bind the dough, then cleverly evaporates during baking to yield a flakier crust. I proceeded cautiously and used only 1/4 c of ice-cold vodka (left over in my freezer from New Year's), mixed with 1/2 c water. And you know what, the crust was buttery and flaky and darn tasty.
Next week: cherries anyone? And good luck to Rafa at the French Open this morning, I would love to see him put an end to Djoki's streak. Only two months til the US Open!
Combine the water and vodka, add an ice cube or two, and set aside. Mix the flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter and work quickly (with a pastry blender, whisk, or your hands) to combine until pea-sized crumbs form. Add 1/2 c of the liquid and continue mixing. You can add the rest if and when you need it, which you probably will. Separate the dough into equal halves, flattening a bit and transferring to plastic wrap. Refrigerate for a minimum of an hour and up to one week.
Preheat the oven to 400 F. Prepare to roll out the dough by cleaning a large surface and flouring it. I like to roll out dough directly on a large piece of saran wrap. Roll half of the dough into a roughly 12- or 13-inch diameter. Carefully transfer to a 9-inch pie dish and set aside.
In a large bowl combine the rhubarb, strawberries, sugars, salt, zest, lemon juice, ginger, and corn starch. Transfer the filling into the pie crust. Roll out the second half of the pie dough, this time to a slightly smaller diameter. Transfer over top of the filling, pressing around the sides to remove any gaps. Trim the ends of the pie and crimp the edges. Make decorative slits to let steam escape. Brush the top with the egg yolk mixture.
Place on a baking sheet and transfer to the oven, baking at 400 for 20 minutes, then turn the temperature down to 350 for an additional 20-25 minutes, until the crust is golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack to cool and let cool completely (if you can resist) before digging in.
This is just a quickie teaser of a post since I should definitely be working not blogging right now. I have something like 100 captions to write today, artwork to send to the processor, essays to read, illustrate, and edit, oh and cover designs to choose for another book! Oy.
I've written before about how every day (or close to that) I make a green smoothie: some form of greens like kale, chard, spinach, etc. blended with fresh fruit. It's a good way to get lots of vitamins and chlorophyll into your system, chopped up finely so it's easily absorbed. They also taste great. They also make captions more fun to write.
Anyway yesterday morning I stumbled upon a great combination and wanted to share. Spinach, fresh pineapple, avocado, and ginger. That's it. Oh and water. This is in the top three green smoothies I've made in the past year (other favorites include dandelion greens-peach-banana, and romaine-grapefruit-mint-avocado). The fresh pineapple adds a real zing-a-ding-ding to the whole thing; the avocado makes it smooth and creamy.
You start with 2-3 cups of fresh spinach and 12 ounces of water. Blend this. Then add 1 c fresh pineapple chunks, 1/2 avocado, and 1 tsp fresh ginger, and blend until smooth.

Украинка — бывшая деревня в Северном районе Новосибирской области России. Решением райисполкома № 186 от 19.08.1977 года деревня исключена из учётных данных.

География
Располагалась на левом берегу реки Ича, в месте впадения ручья Горемычка.

История
Основана в 1909 г. переселенцами с Украины. Первую ночь переселенцы ночевали на берегу реки под открытым небом. Всю ночь шел сильный дождь, все промокли, так и мыкали горе всю ночь. Отсюда и название поселения «Горемычка». В 1920 году открылась школа. Усадьбы были большие, площадью до 1 га, избы рубили хорошие и крепкие. Название деревни Горемычка не устраивала мужиков, унижало их достоинство. Тогда и решили переименовать деревню в 1927 году на Покров, отсюда и название — Ново-Покровка. В 1931 году организован колхоз «Украинец» и одновременно деревню Ново-Покровку переименовали в Украинку. В 1928 г. поселок Ново-Покровский состоял из 42 хозяйств. В составе Ичинского сельсовета Биазинского района Барабинского округа Сибирского края.

Население
По переписи 1926 г. в поселке проживало 268 человек (137 мужчин и 131 женщина), основное население — украинцы.

 In his responsibly mixed review of The Court and the World, Akhil Reed Amar states, "Left largely unstated is Breyer's apparent premise that as American judges become more familiar with non-American legal sources …, these very same American jurists will just naturally begin to think globally and to ponder foreign legal materials even in plain-vanilla cases of American constitutional law that do not directly involve foreign events or foreign persons." Akhil Reed Amar, "Law and Diplomacy," Los Angeles Review of Books (November 24, 2015) [available online at https://lareviewofbooks.org/review/law-and-diplomacy] (last accessed January 3, 2016).
Ouch! But, thank you. Was Judge Breyer's book the traditional pre-requisite for a possible Supreme Court Appointment?
