By Catholic News Service • Posted May 1, 2018
MANILA, Philippines (CNS) — Church groups in the Philippines have launched a support network for Sister Patricia Fox, an Australian missionary nun who has been ordered to leave the country by the government.
Ucanews.com reported the group, Solidarity With the Poor Network, aims to unite faith-based organizations to protest the Philippine government's decision to expel the regional superior of the Sisters of Our Lady of Sion over alleged involvement in "illegal political activities."
Carmelite Father Rico Ponce said the network was "an affirmation of the rightness" of Sister Fox's missionary work for the poor. The priest appealed to the public to support the nun and defend her "freedom to exercise Christian convictions, obligations, and duties to the Filipino people."
Manila Auxiliary Bishop Broderick Pabillo said Catholics need to not be silent over events that affect the lives of the poor.
"Everything is interconnected," he said.
The social action arm of the country's Catholic bishops also issued a statement to "stand in solidarity not only with Sister Fox, but with the human rights community as a whole."
"We will not be intimidated by the suppressive measures of the government to curb freedom of expression and to harass the church," said Father Edwin Gariguez, head of Caritas Philippines.
Earlier, Archbishop Romulo Valles of Davao, president of the Philippine bishops' conference, appealed to President Rodrigo Duterte to revoke the expulsion order on Sister Fox.
"Let the nun continue serving Filipinos," said the prelate.
On April 16, the Philippines' immigration bureau arrested and detained Sister Fox; she was released on April 17 pending further investigation.
On April 25, the immigration bureau revoked Sister Fox's missionary visa and ordered her to leave the country within 30 days.
In a statement, the nun's newly formed support network said the cancellation of the missionary visa violates Sister Fox's "right to due process."
"It is an apparent legal harassment against a religious person who seeks to give flesh and blood to the church mission for the least, the last and the lost," read the group's statement.
Benedictine Sister Mary John Mananzan said the list of alleged violations committed by Sister Fox "is not a list of sins but rather a list of achievements."
"A prophet must stand up, speak out," said Sister Mananzan, who is known for being a vocal advocate for human rights.

Pióropusz – nakrycie głowy, używane przez wybitnych wojowników indiańskich Ameryki Północnej regionu Wielkich Równin. Pióropusz miał znaczenie religijne (szamanizm), był uważany za magiczny talizman ochronny (za takowy uważał swój warbonnet znany wojownik Rzymski Nos). Pióra reprezentowały znaczące dokonania osoby, która nosiła pióropusz. Każde z plemion posiadało własne, wyróżniające się nakrycie głowy. Indianie z zalesionych, wschodnich obszarów dzisiejszych Stanów Zjednoczonych, nosili pióropusze mniejsze, a obok orlich używali piór jastrzębich, indyczych, czaplich i żurawich. Po zetknięciu się z białymi przybyszami Irokezi chętnie zakładali czapki i kapelusze, ale ozdabiali je pozatykanymi gdzie się dało małymi piórami i jednym orlim pośrodku. Takie nakrycia głowy nosiły nazwę gustoweh (prawdziwy kapelusz).

Pióra w pióropuszu Dakotów to pióra orle, bowiem ptak ten (konkretnie, bielik amerykański) miał specjalne znaczenie religijne. Każde z tych piór miało określone znaczenie, np. oznakowane na szczycie czerwonym punktem oznaczało zabicie nieprzyjaciela, a obcięty czubek oznaczał nieprzyjaciela, któremu poderżnięto gardło. Pióropusze te jednak nie były noszone na co dzień; najsłynniejszy wódz Dakotów, Siedzący Byk, występuje na zdjęciach nie w pióropuszu, a z wpiętym we włosy pojedynczym orlim piórem.

Pióropusze bardziej wyszukane, sporządzane z piór różnorakich ptaków tropikalnych, nosili Indianie plemion Ameryki Środkowej (Aztekowie, Majowie) i Południowej (Inkowie i różne plemiona brazylijskie).

Athena Health Care Systems successfully refinanced two skilled nursing homes it acquired with bank debt in 2013 and 2014.
The two new loans were incorporated into an existing Master Lease that covered two other Athena nursing homes, simplifying the overall deal structure for its Rhode Island properties.
Sims Mortgage Funding underwrote two HUD-insured loans that covered 100% of the cost to refinance, obviating the need for equity.
Loan proceeds were maximized by reallocating the bank debt on the basis of current appraised values, not the loan amounts established in 2013 and 2014.
Athena Health Care Systems, one of New England's largest owners and operators, acquired Orchard View Manor in September 2013 and Heatherwood in July 2014 with conventional bank financing and preferred equity issued by HJ Sims. The bank debt was scheduled to mature in 2020 and 2021.
Athena turned to Sims Mortgage Funding to obtain HUD-insured loans well in advance of the maturities of its current debt because it wanted to eliminate refinancing risk and take advantage of current low, long-term and fixed interest rates.
Sims Mortgage Funding underwrote two separate loans insured under the LEAN Section 232/223(f) program to refinance the existing debt, which included swap termination fees. The loans also provided a source of funding for capital expenditures and reserves.
Because Athena already had two other HUD-insured projects located in Rhode Island that were financed by Sims Mortgage Funding in 2014, Sims was able to include the Heatherwood and Orchard View loans in the Master Lease structure that had been established in 2014.
As a result, the HUD-insured loans represented 100% of the cost to refinance the projects and featured 35-year terms. The Orchard View and Heatherwood loans were underwritten at loans-to-value of 74% and 77% respectively, and had debt-service coverage ratios of 3.16 and 2.92 respectively.
Sims Mortgage Funding also coordinated the closing of both loans simultaneously, which was a mandatory condition of the bank loan refinancing.
Changes in the appraised values of the projects since their acquisition dates resulted in a "mismatch" in the amounts of debt that each project could support by the new values. However, Sims Mortgage Funding was able to maximize HUD-insured loan proceeds by reallocating the bank debt to each property on the basis of the updated appraised values.
HUD approved the Orchard View and Heatherwood loans about three weeks apart. Despite this lag, Sims Mortgage Funding was able to lock in interest rates and terms at the same time.
Heatherwood and Orchard View are the seventh and eighth HUD-insured financings Sims Mortgage Funding has completed for Athena since 2013.

Q: What is the correct way to make logging less verbose (chromedp)? My question is this package-specific: https://github.com/knq/chromedp/
This is just a glimpse of a log when running chromedp Actions. It is not event an Action-related piece. What is the correct way to make the logging silent or less verbose?

A: The solution is simple:
Code taken from their sample:
// create chrome instance
c, err := cdp.New(ctxt, cdp.WithLog(log.Printf))

if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

change to
// create chrome instance
c, err := cdp.New(ctxt) // no WithLog() option

if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

A: Didn't tested
I have no expirience with that package, but accourding the usage example, cbp initialized with the log function:
// create chrome instance
c, err := cdp.New(ctxt, cdp.WithLog(log.Printf)) <- in this case log.Printf
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

I assume you can set log level for the log.Printf with log.SetFlags(0)
// create chrome instance
log.SetFlags(0)
c, err := cdp.New(ctxt, cdp.WithLog(log.Printf))
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

or pass an empty function(or initialize without a log function).
There is also Discard to disable logging at all, log.SetOutput(ioutil.Discard)

Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap is Headed to Mobile
Written by: Kenneth Seward Jr.
Dotemu and Playdigious recently announced that Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap is headed to mobile devices. Soon, fans of the hit title will be able to take it on the road…you know, besides those of us who own it on the Switch.
The mobile version is a premium experience, offering the full game for a solid price; Playdigious was able to optimize the experience so that it retains the hand-drawn animation, solid action adventure gameplay, and the ability to switch between the classic and remaster visuals/audio on the fly.
Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap will land on Android and iOS devices (as well as the Nvidia Shield) on May 30th. It'll cost players $8.99 to play, less if they pre-order it via the Google Play Store; they'll get 30% off the base price.

Mayor Bill de Blasio said on Friday that he's already got two district attorneys signed on to his administration's plan to open four safe injection facilities in three boroughs where addicts can shoot up under medical supervision.
De Blasio also said two City Council members whose districts would each have a facility are in favor, Corey Johnson in west Midtown and Steve Levin who represents Boerum Hill-Park Slope in Brooklyn.
The two other Council members — Ydanis Rodriguez in Washington Heights and Rafael Salamanca in the Bronx — are still reviewing the proposal.
Their support is needed on top of the State Health Department and federal law enforcement officials before the controversial program to battle opioid addiction could move forward.
"It's a very complex question… there are very substantial law enforcement and legal issues, quality of life issues, there are all sorts of concerns. But in the final analysis what's clear to me is this will save lives," the mayor said.
The facilities will be staffed by medical professionals in hopes of reducing the number of overdoses and offering treatment services to drug users who would otherwise be doing the same thing in public places or private residences, he said.
The sites scheduled slated to open after a public input period of 6 to 12 months in Boerum Hill-Park Slope; Longwood in the Bronx; and Midtown West and Washington Heights in Manhattan.
A number of cities across the US have taken steps to open safe injection sites, but currently they only exist in Canada, Europe and Australia.
Hizzoner's identification for where the sites will be housed generated immediate concerns from a caller to the radio show in Park Slope named Daniel, who said the Fourth Avenue site is too close to a number of schools.
"The concern is about the safety and the people who are going to frequent that place," the resident said.
The mayor said all four sites already have needle exchange centers, so they'll be serving a similar population when they convert to safe injection sites.
He also said the city is going to beef up police presence outside and take steps to ensure that addicts don't wander out from the buildings while still high.
"We're going to have a strong presence of the NYPD and other agencies around these overdose prevention centers to ensure that quality of life is not disrupted, to ensure there is not illegal activity tolerated outside these centers," de Blasio said.
The plan came after a 19-month study by the city's Health Department that determined the initiative could save as many as 130 lives and $7 million annually.

As always the stable versions of Inkscape are available on the website. My guess is that there won't be any executables for the development versions. Maybe someone is making them for Windows now and then (they were, not too long ago, I know that). But it's doubtful someone will make installation packages available on a daily basis.
"master branch"?? No more trunks?? Yikes, the tree is going to fall over! Maybe the structure has become more like a vine than a tree, now?
Sorry, ragstian, forgot to add that info. Edited original post!
The analogy with the vine isn't very far from reality, Brynn git is a bit less 'ordered', more 'interwoven' than bazaar was.
So how do you get the most current version? Do you just choose the one with the highest number in the right column? Because "CI/AppVeyor: Enable tests" doesn't tell me much. Several of the others seem to name the bug which was fixed. But most of the time when we would send a user here, it would be to get the most current one.
Will there be any way of knowing which one is the most stable? I know that none are meant to be considered as stable. But it seems like in the past, when we would get a dev version, it would be one which we could keep for awhile. This seems to make it less friendly for ordinary users, and more need for a connection to developers (to know which would be the most dependable, or sometimes even to know which one we want).
I personally would consider anything in the 0.92.x branch even better than the released version, because commits to that branch are limited to bug fixes and minor improvements that won't be as disruptive in nature as new features introduced to the master branch. Of course they can still break things - use at your own risk. It's also more difficult to help users struggling with bugs that have been fixed already in the version one is using.
In the master branch, generally you can't expect stability. Some things may be better, others are worse. It's not recommended for production, and those who do use it for production should know how to deal with occurring issues.
The tests (AppVeyor is a build-test website) are ordered by time, newest first.

awesome post.thanks for great information.
Thanks Wes...I sure do miss the weekly sessions with you. I will be in the area during October I would love to do some yoga with you. Should I check out your schedules?


This morning I was driving to work when I realized there was a big smear mark in my windshield. Like some crazy blonde tried wiping the window off with her hand.
The sun is usually rising when I leave the house so it's impossible for me to see through this smudge. It looks like I'll have to stop at the gas station to clean the inside of my window.
Pulling into Wawa, the only pump available is the one that has both diesel and unleaded fuel. I don't like this one because I know it's the only one that diesel drivers can use. But I'm only planning on topping off my tank since I hate using the window cleaner without getting gas and I still have a half a tank.
I pull up thinking I will get this done quickly and as soon as I get out of my car, a big diesel pickup pulls up behind, waiting for the pump.
Suddenly it's like I'm on some gas pumping stage where everyone is watching me. I'm also pissed because there is an empty diesel pump on the other side that he is too cool to use. I guess he had to be on the outside pump! More room to thrust his manly muscles around.
(I'm also assuming he's a man since I never really looked directly at the driver. I apologize for the stereotype. But in my town, mostly men drive the big honking diesel trucks).
So there I am suddenly harassed while the truck sits there, its engine chugging away. When I go to put gas in my car, I realize I'm way too close to the pump. That means I'm forced to sidle to and from the pump to my gas tank. Also, the window wiper fluid/trash can thingie the gas station provides is too far away. Almost at the truck, which is still waiting. At this point, I'm so flustered I don't want them to see me clean my car windshield, lest they think I'm taking my time while they wait. So I sidle back to my car and into the driver's seat, pouting the whole way. Like all of this pressure isn't ALL IN MY HEAD.
I end up pulling away without cleaning my windshield. I even forget to tell the pump whether I want a receipt or not! A voice inside of me--I'm pretty sure it was coming from the smear mark--is like, "What is wrong with you? Don't be such a wuss. You NEED to clean your windshield."
I end up pulling into the last pump on the other side of the gas station. (Do you think I'm crazy yet?) But the squeegee is not in the fluid. It's been taken by the lady on the other side, who is apparently detailing her car at the gas pump. She even has her windshield wipers up while she meticulously wipes every mark off. Annoyed, I pull out a paper towel from the dispenser and dip it into the fluid. It will have to do!
Of course the whole time I'm paranoid someone will come out and be like, "You didn't buy gas here! Give back that teaspoon of window cleaner!"
And I will be like, "I did buy gas! I have a receipt--oh...wait...yeah... Those guys might have my receipt!"
All of this probably happened within a space of 10 minutes, but it was very stressful. What is it about me that makes me so freaking anxious to do the simple things? Why couldn't I be like, "I was here first and I have a right to use this pump AND clean my windows. Maybe even meticulously like the woman way over there."
But no, I'm scurrying around like some mouse scared they were going to be like, "HEY LADY! We have get on the job some time today! You are too much of a wimp to handle the diesel pump!"
The wet paper towel does work and I get work smudge free. But sometimes I wonder how I've managed to make it these 42 years with this kind of crazy inside me. It really is a miracle.
I have ugly feet. Ugly. I'm not exaggerating at all. Think Fred Flintstone. I used to want to hide them, but the older I get the less I care. I throw on some nail polish to hide the toes, but I still wear flip flops as long as I can. Socks are a pain that you only wear in winter to avoid frost bite.
I used to avoid looking at them at all. But then one day I glanced down and a memory flashed through my mind. I remembered the day before we lost my dad how we were at the hospital visiting him and I wasn't sure where to look. I wasn't comfortable with my dad being so vulnerable. His blanket didn't cover him all the way and my gaze lingered on his feet. Like mine, they were calloused and rough looking. The toes were kind of ugly. I didn't realize then that I was looking into a mirror.
Not only do I have my dad's eyes, I have his feet. Two very important things. Sometimes living without my dad feels like a test. A bad joke. A reality I will never get used to. But finding parts of him in unexpected places. That helps.
He is me. He's in my eyes. In my sense of humor... My smile. Now he's part of the path I walk every day. He guides me with his feet. And if we were Flintstones, he could even drive my car.

WASHINGTON, August 25, 2011 – The World Bank's Board of Executive Directors approved an Additional Financing loan to Ukraine in the amount of US$150 million for the Second Export Development Project (EDP 2).The project supports export and real sector growth in Ukraine by providing medium and long-term investment and working capital finance to Ukrainian private exporting enterprises. The project also aims to further improve the ability of the Ukrainian banking sector to intermediate financial resources to the enterprise sector by providing a wider variety of better quality lending products.
"Ukraine needs more competitive and diversified exports to sustain economic growth in these volatile global times. This project was a key source of financing for exporters during the crisis. By providing additional financing now, we hope to extend its impact into a lasting recovery," said Martin Raiser, World Bank Country Director for Ukraine, Belarus and Moldova.
The Additional Financing loan will supplement the existing EDP2 credit line and will extend the EDP2 project implementation through the end of 2014.
EDP 2, approved in 2006, is a successor to the previously successful EDP 1 project (1996-2003). The borrower and the main implementation agency remains the State Export-Import Bank of Ukraine (Ukreximbank). Of the US$ 150 million Additional Financing loan provided by the World Bank, US$ 45 million will be used by Ukreximbank for direct financing of its exporting clients, while US$ 105 million will be used for lending by Ukreximbank to eligible financial intermediaries for their further on-lending to Ukrainian exporters.
The loan will be provided to Ukreximbank as a LIBOR-based flexible variable spread loan repayable in 30 years, including a 6-year grace period, and will be provided a state guarantee by Ukraine.
Since Ukraine joined the World Bank in 1992, World Bank commitments to the country total about US$ 7 billion for 39 projects and programs.

Syllabus of Errors | Article about Syllabus of Errors by The Free Dictionary
https://encyclopedia2.thefreedictionary.com/Syllabus+of+Errors
Syllabus of Errors
Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Medical, Legal, Wikipedia.
(A Syllabus Containing the Principal Errors of Our Time), published by Pius IX on Dec. 8, 1864, in an appendix to the encyclical Quanta cura.
The 80-paragraph Syllabus of Errors enumerated the "principal errors and false doctrines" condemned in encyclicals, epistles, and other documents issued by Pius IX since he assumed the papacy. It condemned progressive scientific and social thought, freedom of conscience, separation of church and state, rationalism, democracy, socialism, and communism—any thinking that contradicted the interests and doctrine of the church, its claims to a superior role in society and the state, and the papacy's claims to secular authority. The concluding paragraph condemned liberal Catholicism's thesis that the "Roman pontiff can and should reconcile and harmonize himself with progress, with liberalism, and with modern civilization." The resolutions of the First Vatican Council (1870) included the basic tenets of the Syllabus of Errors.
The decree Lamentabili, published in 1907 under Pius X, included a new, 65-paragraph Syllabus of Errors condemning modernist ideas in Catholicism.
Syllabus of Errors
Acton, John Emerich Edward Dalberg Acton, 1st Baron
ultramontanism
However, this Italian priest who "waged a decades-long war on behalf of integralist Catholicism and in defense of the church faithful to Pius IX's Syllabus of Errors," is rather scathingly characterized as an anti-Semite and Fascist whose integralist views "will always remain a temptation for certain Catholics with a straightforward and oversimplified view of papal and church authority" and for "those insecure souls who look to the Church as a refuge in a world of constantly accelerating change." Regardless of the accuracy of these assertions, the negativity that abounds in this chapter is not to be found in Bokenkotter's discussion of the progressive historical figures he views more favorably.
Church and Revolution: Catholics in the Struggle for Democracy and Social Justice
Interestingly the same pope who issued the Syllabus of Errors granted the convert scientist George Mivart a pontifical doctorate for his moderate version of evolutionism.
Catholic Converts: British and American Intellectuals Turn to Rome
Gradually, as the church dictates even who does the dishes after the Eucharist, it is downloading more and more fundamentalism -- enough to raise the "Syllabus of Errors" to the size of an "Encyclopedia of Errors." In the process, the slippage of the faithful will get so bad that the priest shortage will become moot.
Archbishop's portable throne heavier than sin
Although most aspects of modernity, including democracy, separation of church and state, religious freedom, socialism, and the truths of science, had been condemned by the 1864 Syllabus of Errors, Vatican II not only accepted democracy as a system of government but also the separation of church and state, with its guarantee of religious freedom for all.
Who says the church can't change? (Even when it comes to women)
The democratic movements of the 19th century encouraged rule by the people, due process, and freedom of speech, the press and assembly, and liberated the church from temporal entanglements in the Papal States, but these movements also provoked an extreme reaction from the ruling pope, Pius IX, in the form of the "Syllabus of Errors" and insistence on the dogma of papal infallibility,
What can we learn from the great teacher?
These 70 schemas, more than twice the volume of texts issued from all previous councils put together, renewed the anathemas of Trent and Vatican I, as well as the wholesale denunciation of the contemporary world already found in Pius IX's "Syllabus of Errors."
HISTORY OF VATICAN II, VOLUME III
In this critique, two points loom especially large: the "Syllabus of Errors" of 1864, and the declaration of papal infallibility in 1870.
Pope of infallibility set for beatification
Both, however, urged support of the workers as the proper Catholic response to Pius IX's Syllabus of Errors, which in their judgment had rightly condemned capitalism's destruction of the protection workers had enjoyed under the medieval guild system.
CHURCH AND REVOLUTION: CATHOLICS AND THE STRUGGLE FOR DEMOCRACY
It is a quite different thing-to paint him as a man of prayer to the end, deeply devoted to Mary and favoring the infallibility declaration for the, same reason he published the incredibly arrogant Syllabus of Errors: simply to help preserve the church from error.
Lives of the Popes: the Pontiffs From St. Peter to John Paul II
In the English colonies, for example, the evangelizers--presumably Catholic--had to contend with the challenge of the "Calvinists," from which resulted "martyrs beyond numbering." Later on, as we come to the 19th century, we are told that Pius IX's Syllabus of Errors and the First Vatican Council helped the churches of America "to "reaffirms their love for the pope and their sense of being part of a common church." Pius XI, Pius XII, Paul VI and "the renewing thought of John Paul II" were all duly credited with giving "new dynamisms to the tasks of evangelization." without so much as a mention either of John XXIII or of the Second Vatican Council.
Defensive note struck at opening of synod
Pius IX's certitudes as proclaimed in the "Syllabus of Errors" have not stood the test of time.

Trump Continues To Receive Criticism For His Attacks On The News Media
February 20, 2017 — Ron Chusid
Donald Trump's attack on the media as an enemy of the American people has received widespread criticism. Carl Bernstein has called Trump's attacks on the media worse than those which came from Richard Nixon:
"Trump's attacks on the American press as 'enemies of the American people' are more treacherous than Richard Nixon's attacks on the press," former Washington Post reporter Carl Bernstein said Sunday on CNN.
Trump's comments — made publicly, whereas Nixon attacked his enemies in private — brought to mind "dictators and authoritarians, including Stalin, including Hitler," Bernstein said.
He immediately walked back a comparison to the Nazi leader, while doubling down on the comparison to Nixon.
Bernstein — whose reporting of the Watergate break-in and coverup helped bring about Nixon's resignation — said Trump's rhetoric is potentially more dangerous than Nixon's attacks on the news media.
"There is no civic consensus in this country like there was at the time of Watergate about acceptable presidential conduct," Bernstein said on "Reliable Sources."
"Trump is out there on his own, leading a demagogic attack on the institutions of free democracy," he said. "We are into terrible authoritarian tendencies."
"We're not enemies of the American people," Bernstein said on CNN. "In fact, we're the last resort of the American people to a dictatorial and authoritarian-inclined president."
Even Fox was critical of Trump, with Chris Wallace saying he crossed the line:
Fox News anchor Chris Wallace cautioned his colleagues and the network's viewers Sunday that President Trump's latest attack on the media had gone too far.
"Look, we're big boys. We criticize presidents. They want to criticize us back, that's fine," Wallace said Sunday morning on "Fox & Friends." "But when he said that the fake news media is not my enemy, it's the enemy of the American people, I believe that crosses an important line."
The "Fox & Friends" anchors had shown a clip of Trump recounting that past presidents, including Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln, had fought with the press. They then asked Wallace whether Trump's fraught relationship with the media was a big deal.
In response, Wallace told his colleagues that Jefferson had also once written the following: "And were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter."
Context was important, Wallace said. All presidents fight with the media, but Trump had taken it a step further in making them out to be "the enemy," he added.
"Yes, presidents have always had — and politicians have always had — problems with the press. They want good press. The press doesn't always give it to them," Wallace said. "But what Jefferson [was saying] is, despite all of our disputes, that to the functioning of a free and fair democracy, you must have an independent press."
My previous post on this subject quoted John McCain in criticizing Trump, along with other comparisons to Richard Nixon.
John McCain isn't the only Republican who has been critical of Donald Trump recently. The Wall Street Journal has a story on how Justin Amash, a libertarian-leaning Congressman from Michigan, has emerged as "Leading Critic of Fellow Republican Donald Trump."
President Donald Trump's "constant fear-mongering'' about terrorism is "irresponsible and dangerous.'' He needs to "stop attacking the legitimacy of the judiciary.'' He picked an attorney general with "anti-liberty" positions on surveillance and police seizure of property…
Mr. Amash says his opposition is based on principle, as a libertarian concerned about government overreach and adherence to the Constitution. While many Republican lawmakers hold similar beliefs, Mr. Amash has been an especially outspoken proponent of smaller government, even on issues—such as reducing surveillance—where his views put him out of step with the more mainstream elements of the GOP.

I'm surprised you couldn't manage a passing word to the memory of Norma McCorvey who was, for most of her tragic life, the duped plaything for militant Leftist agitators.
But then again, perhaps I'm not surprised.
Thank you once again for the look into how the right wing gutter views things.
As for coverage, years back when there were multiple posts per day, her death might have received a post. These days items such as this are more briefly noted on social media as opposed to blog posts.

Иван (Иванка) Захарьич вместе с Янем (Иоанном) Вышатичем и его братом Путятой Вышатичем был послан в 1106 году князем Святополком Изяславичем на половцев.

В. Н. Татищев упоминает о Иване Захарьиче, который успешно руководил обороной Звенигорода от войск Всеволода Ольговича под событиями 1146 года, (причем чтобы укрепить боевой дух горожан, пришлось трех сторонников сдачи крепости рассечь на части и выкинуть за городскую стену), но тождественность этих двух людей установить сложно.

Neymar: Have Barcelona Got It Right With The Unpolished Jewel?
by Dinesh V June 23, 2013, 11:24 pm
Two times South American footballer of the year, FIFA Puskas award for best goal, Best young player in the Campeonato Paulista, four times Best player in the Campeonato Paulista, first Copa Libertadores for Santos since 1963, Best player in Copa Libertadores, Young player of the year. 36 international caps and 22 goals, first Brazilian athlete to appear on the cover of TIME, over ten sponsorship deals, voted most marketable athlete on the planet.
All this at the tender age of just 21…
Acceleration, speed, dribbling, pace, finishing, creativity, passing, shooting, you name it.
Neymar has it all… simply on top of the world. He is the next big thing.
A justified 57 million price tag?
Since Guardiola's appointment in 2008, Barcelona started playing a divine type of football that put them on top of world football for several years, achieving many titles and breaking numerous records in the process. Some called it "Total football", others labeled it "Tiki-taka", but what was clearly obvious is that Pep endorsed Arrigo Sacchi's claims that the next tactical revolution in the game (after his 1990's Milan) would be the conversion of the pitch into a midfield area. What did he mean? A fluid, expressive, and proactive system that focuses on team work, off-ball movement, exploiting spaces, aggressive and collective pressure, positional interchange, specialists elimination and quick passing. A team that attacks as a unit, and defends as a unit, while building up play from the back. Watching such a system is a pleasure, but fitting in it is a whole other matter. Many players simply failed to grasp this philosophy, while others refused to sacrifice their individual capabilities to integrate into the team. If one thing is certain about Barcelona's football, it is the fact that no matter how successful or talented a player is, by no means his fitting into the system is guaranteed. Will Neymar be an exception?
When it comes to Brazilian players, Barcelona has something of a bad history. Sonny Anderson, Geovanni, Henrique, Keirrison, Giovanni, and Rochemback, all came, saw, but did not conquer. If this indicates one thing, it is that non-European signings should only be completed after thorough analysis, and meticulous monitoring. Due to the major differences between European and South American leagues, a large portion of Brazilian imports choose to ply their trades at relatively small European leagues before stepping up to the big stage. Romario, Ronaldo, Vampeta, Matuzalem, Fernandinho, Alex, David Luiz, Ramires, and Ronaldinho are some of the players that comprehended Europe's challenging football in less demanding leagues before making moves to big clubs.
Neymar did not take that path, and whether his magic will enable him to skip classes in his trip to the summit of world football remains to be seen. Club Icon Johan Cruyff rang the alarm bell upon Neymar's arrival, clearly stating that putting two captains on a ship might result in the sinking of the ship. Cruyff's explanation was that Neymar's superior attributes do not guarantee his success in a hard-to-comprehend system, and given his hefty price he might not be afforded the required time to smoothly integrate into the team.
After last year's disastrous defeat to Bayern, many questions aroused, and several gaps appeared. Gaps that should be bridged either with youngster's promotion, or with dipping into the transfer market. While a defensive reinforcement is obviously needed, and still to be done. An offensive signing is also required to balance our forward line, and lend a hand to Messi with the quest of tearing opposition defenses, and scoring on a regular basis. Before delving into the names of transfer targets, the most reasonable thing to do is build a profile for the type of player needed to plug a certain hole in the team.
To further illustrate, Tito is in search of a quick, tall defender with good passing skills to complement Pique. That's why Zubizaretta is fighting tooth and nail to acquire David Luiz, or Thiago Silva, and that is the exact reason why he passed the chance to sign Hummels, a static, slow defender with below-average passing skills. The profile required for our defender fits the two Brazilians but does not do the same with the on-form German. The same goes for our attacking search. But was Neymar signed according to similar methodical approach? Will he benefit our system more than a Rooney or Cavani-type of player? With the availability of Pedro, Alexis, Tello, and now Deulofeu, are dribbling skills required more than work rate? Is creativity sought after more than penalty box killer instinct?
As of June 2012, Barcelona's net debt was approximately 320 million Euros. Given Europe's critical economic situation, the board should definitely keep the club's debt at the forefront of their strategic planning, but at the same time make sure to differentiate sporting matters from economical issues, in order to maintain the great heights the club has reached since 2008. Working tirelessly but separately on both matters is a guaranteed success on both fronts, while any miscalculation or mix up will hinder the club's progress.
There is no doubt that his arrival will boost shirt sales, enhance our global image, and more than make up for the 57 million paid for his signature. Voted the most marketable athlete on the planet, ahead of Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, he already boasts more than 10 sponsorship deals that will benefit the club in one way or the other. Neymar's commercial value is already meteoric, and will only rise after wearing the blaugrana colors. However, removing his arrival from the commercial context and putting it in a pure football perspective, leaves big unanswered questions.
The basic cog in Barcelona's Total football is the team working as a unit, and finding the perfect equilibrium that enables individuals to showcase their strengths and adequately contribute to the team's performance. One, two, or three new defenders won't fix our defensive problems, and signing several quality attackers won't solve our attacking difficulties. The system in which these individuals will function is the most important thing. If the system if broken then whomever we sign will not change the outcome. Our Total football ensures that individual mistakes are covered by collective efforts such as aggressive pressing.
When one player fails, the unit makes up for his shortcomings and the team triumphs. But when individual errors tend to appear more, that means that the collective team effort is not up to covering these individual mistakes, thus condemning the team to inevitable failure. To simplify things, Guardiola's Barcelona managed to win a historical number of titles with almost the same defense we have now. He even won the champions league final with a make-shift defense, that's simply because individual shortcomings, no matter who is absent, were always covered by collective efforts. Was that the case this season? That said, we should carefully identify and acknowledge that signings alone will not solve our problems, our system should be put under close scrutiny in order to rectify previous blunders.
After all, a broken system not only exposes individuals, it also has deadly symptoms, such as the-now-infamous "Messidependencia". Tito should go back to the basics of Total football and do his homework before determining who should be signed before big questions start to haunt him, questions such as: does Neymar fit into the system?
In terms of style, the closest thing to a Neymar is a Ronaldinho. And when Ronaldinho arrived at Barcelona, he was tested for two seasons in the French league. Neymar is arriving as a raw talent, fresh from the South American market. His exquisite talent is not a guarantee for success. Marketing aside, many factors will shape his career at Barcelona, and only time will tell whether he was a justifiable acquisition.

Oxidation kinetics of transition metals exposed to molecular and atomic oxygen
Cristiane R. Stilhano Vilas Boas, Jacobus M. Sturm*, Wesley T.E. van den Beld, Fred Bijkerk
XUV Optics
In this work we analyze the oxidation of 30 nm polycrystalline transition metals films (Hf, Ta, Mo and Ru) at low temperatures (298 K to 473 K) upon the exposure to two different species: molecular oxygen and atomic oxygen. Using in-situ spectroscopic ellipsometry and in-vacuum X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, we verify the oxide growth kinetics and the final stoichiometry after each exposure condition for the four metals, and explore the particularities present in each oxide growth mechanics. The temperature-dependent analysis enabled to experimentally obtain the dissociation energy of molecular oxygen at polycrystalline O covered surfaces. By applying the principles of coupled currents and the Cabrera-Mott oxide growth mechanism, we extract values of the energy barrier for oxidation and the field formed in both oxygen molecule-metal and atom-metal interaction, exploring the differences between both exposure conditions. We demonstrate that in oxide growth at low temperatures two key points should be highlighted: (i) the strong dependence of surface potential on reactive oxygen coverage; (ii) the interrelation between exposure conditions and crystalline oxide formation. The obtained results and analysis contribute to the understanding of oxidation processes at low temperatures, advancing the knowledge required for the design and synthesis of thin metal and oxide films.

Officials in Cyahinda sector in Nyaruguru district, Southern Rwanda, confirm that a high school teacher was killed by River Akavuguto floods on Wednesday while the executive secretary of Gasasa cell is still missing, owing to the River floods.
Vital Kayiranga, a former teacher at Saint Jean Baptiste Cyahinda Teacher Training Center, drowned as he crossed over the bridge to the school.
Jean Baptiste Shyirahayo, Executive Secretary of Gasasa cell, still goes missing, he is said to have slid and got trapped into the waters as he tried to save the life of his companion.
"We have so far recovered the corpse of the teacher but the Executive Secretary is still missing," said Eugène Kanyarwanda, Executive Secretary of Cyahinda sector.
The bridge on the Akavuguto River, which links Gasasa  to Coko cells in Cyahinda sector, is wood-made and is dangerous, especially  in the rainy season. A child drowned and died at the brigde, two years ago owing to over flooding.
