Anatomy of a Failing Presidency
The following is an interesting article. You might ask how long Dr. Hunt can remain at NIH once the White House gets wind of this article.
Dr. Hunt is a social and cultural anthropologist. He has had nearly 30 years experience in planning, conducting, and managing research in the field of youth studies, and drug and alcohol research. Currently, Dr. Hunt is a Senior Research Scientist at the Institute for Scientific Analysis and the Principal Investigator on three National Institutes on Health projects. He is also a writer for American Thinker.
An article from American Thinker by Geoffrey P. Hunt:
Barack Obama is on track to have the most spectacularly failed presidency since Woodrow Wilson. In the modern era, we've seen several failed presidencies- -led by Jimmy Carter and LBJ. Failed presidents have one strong common trait-- they are repudiated, in the vernacular, spat out. Of course, LBJ wisely took the exit ramp early, avoiding a shove into oncoming traffic by his own party. Richard Nixon indeed resigned in disgrace, yet his reputation as a statesman has been partially restored by his triumphant overture to China 20.
But, Barack Obama is failing. Failing big. Failing fast. And failing everywhere: foreign policy, domestic initiatives, and most importantly, in forging connections with the American people. The incomparable Dorothy Rabinowitz in the Wall Street Journal put her finger on it: He is failing because he has no understanding of the American people, and may indeed loathe them. Fred Barnes of the Weekly Standard says he is failing because he has lost control of his message, and is overexposed. Clarice Feldman of American Thinker produced a dispositive commentary showing that Obama is failing because fundamentally he is neither smart nor articulate; his intellectual dishonesty is conspicuous by its audacity and lack of shame.
But, there is something more seriously wrong: How could a new president riding in on a wave of unprecedented promise and good will have forfeited his tenure and become a lame duck in six months? His poll ratings are in free fall. In generic balloting, the Republicans have now seized a five point advantage. This truly is unbelievable. What's going on?
No narrative. Obama doesn't have a narrative. No, not a narrative about himself. He has a self-narrative, much of it fabricated, cleverly disguised or written by someone else. But this self-narrative is isolated and doesn't connect with us. He doesn't have an American narrative that draws upon the rest of us. All successful presidents have a narrative about the American character that intersects with their own where they display a command of history and reveal an authenticity at the core of their personality that resonates in a positive endearing way with the majority of Americans. We admire those presidents whose narratives not only touch our own, but who seem stronger, wiser, and smarter than we are. Presidents we admire are aspirational peers, even those whose politics don't align exactly with our own: Teddy Roosevelt, FDR, Harry Truman, Ike, and Reagan.
But not this president. It's not so much that he's a phony, knows nothing about economics, and is historically illiterate and woefully small minded for the size of the task--all contributory of course. It's that he's not one of us. And whatever he is, his profile is fuzzy and devoid of content, like a cardboard cutout made from delaminated, corrugated paper. Moreover, he doesn't command our respect and is unable to appeal to our own common sense. His notions of right and wrong are repugnant and how things work just don't add up. They are not existential. His descriptions of the world we live in don't make sense and don't correspond with our experience.
In the meantime, while we've been struggling to take a measurement of this man, he's dissed just about every one of us--financiers, energy producers, banks, insurance executives, police officers, doctors, nurses, hospital administrators, post office workers, and anybody else who has a non-green job. Expect Obama to lament at his last press conference in 2012: "For those of you I offended, I apologize. For those of you who were not offended, you just didn't give me enough time; if only I'd had a second term, I could have offended you too."
Mercifully, the Founders at the Constitutional Convention in 1787 devised a useful remedy for such a desperate state--staggered terms for both houses of the legislature and the executive. An equally abominable Congress can get voted out next year. With a new Congress, there's always hope of legislative gridlock until we vote for president again two short years after that.
Yes, small presidents do fail, Barack Obama among them. The coyotes howl but the wagon train keeps rolling along..

So given the president's call for fiscal "responsibility," one might assume Democrats would jump on the bandwagon. Not so. Every Senate Democrat -- every Democrat -- voted Thursday to raise the debt ceiling to $14.3 trillion. That's $45,000 of debt for every American man, woman and child. But as Obama so succinctly (and ridiculously) put it in the SOTU, "That's how budgeting works."

Perna  falu Horvátországban, Sziszek-Monoszló megyében. Közigazgatásilag Topuszkához tartozik.

Fekvése
Sziszektől légvonalban 45, közúton 60 km-re délnyugatra, községközpontjától légvonalban 8, közúton 10 km-re nyugatra, az úgynevezett Báni-végvidéken, a Kordun területén, a Petrova gora keleti lejtői alatt, az azonos nevű patak partján, a Topuszkóról Vrginmostra vezető út mellett, Ponikvár és Malicska között fekszik. Főbb településrészei Perna Dolnja és Perna Gornja.

Története
A település egyes feltételezések szerint az ószláv pogány istenségről Perunról kapra a nevét. Perna vidéke már az ókorban lakott volt. A római uralom előtt illír törzsek lakták a területét. A római korban a falutól keletre Topuszka vidékén feküdt Ad Fines városa, ennek a kornak az emléke az itt talált feliratos kő. A 4. és 5. században a gótok és a longobárdok, a 6. században az avarok és a szlávok, a 9. század elején a frankok foglalták el ezt a területet. A magyarok a 10. században érkeztek meg ebbe a térségbe. Területe a 11. század végétől magyar-horvát királyok uralma alatt volt. 1097-ben a település felett fekvő Petrova gora hegységben vívott csatában győzte le Könyves Kálmán serege Svačić Pétert az utolsó horvát királyt. A hagyomány szerint a hegység neve is az ő emlékét őrzi. A 13. század elején a közeli Topuszkán II. András magyar király cisztercita apátságot alapított.

Perna középkori várának (melyet a korabeli források Perniknek is neveznek) pontos építési ideje nem ismert. Első említése 1225-ben történt. Építése lehet, hogy összefüggésben van a néhány kilométerre keletre fekvő topuszkai Nikolino-hegyen álló várral, mely 1201-ben már állt, de akár illír eredetű is lehet. A 14. század elején került a Šubić család egyik ágának Bribiri Pál fia Jakabnak a  birtokába. A 16. században ezt a vidéket is egyre többször érték török támadások, majd 1556-ban az Oszmán Birodalom több évszázadra megszállta a területét. Perna várát 1558-ban és 1578-ban is lerombolta a török. Ezt követően a bécsi haditanács 1584-ben kivette a várat addigi birtokosai kezéből és őrségét kivonva átengedte a török sereg pusztításának. A karlócai békével ez a terület is felszabadult a török megszállás alól, majd a Katonai határőrvidék része lett. A 17. század végétől a hódoltsági területekről nagy számú szerb lakosság érkezett és telepedett le itt végleg. A várba határőröket helyeztek, de a török ennek ellenére 1717-ben és 1788-ban is elfoglalta és kirabolta. Ezt követően katonai jelentősége megszűnt, elhagyták és sorsára hagyták. Ma már csak romjai láthatók. Köveit az 1950-es években útépítéshez használták. Perna Szűz Mária tiszteletére szentelt plébániatemplomát már 1334-ben említi Ivan goricai főesperes. A katonai közigazgatás idején egyfajta határőrizeti központ volt, kapitányság székhelye, ahol iskola, templom és több más közintézmény volt. Iskoláját 1845-ben alapították és a pernaiak mellett Pecke, Cernipotok, Katinovác, Malicska és Blatusa gyerekei is ide jártak. 1881-ig az oktatás németül is folyt. 1900-tól koedukált iskolaként működött egészen 1941-ig amikor az usztasák felgyújtották..

A katonai közigazgatás 1881-ig tartott. Ezután Zágráb vármegye Vrginmosti járásának része volt. A településnek 1857-ben 1317, 1910-ben 1221 lakosa volt. 1918-ban a Szerb-Horvát-Szlovén Királyság, majd 1929-ben Jugoszlávia része lett. A lakosság  szerb nemzetiségű volt. 1941 és 1945 között a falu a Független Horvát Állam része volt. A szerb lakosságból sokan csatlakoztak a partizán egységekhez. A pernai partizánosztagot 1940 októberében hozták létre. Az 1941. szeptembere és 1942 májusa között eltelt nyolc hónap során az usztasák a falu 385 lakosát gyilkolták meg. Közülük 170 gyermek, a többi nő és idős ember volt. A megtorló akciók során az egész falut templomával és iskolájával együtt lerombolták. További 73 pernai esett el az ellenséggel vívott harcokban. A háború négy éve alatt a harcokban és a megtorlások során 499 pernai lakos esett el, illetve esett áldozatul. A háború összes halálos áldozatainak száma pedig 572 volt. A délszláv háború idején 1991-ben a település lakossága a szerb erőket támogatta. A horvát hadsereg a Vihar hadművelet keretében 1995. augusztus 7-én foglalta el települést. A falut templomával együtt lerombolták. A szerb lakosság elmenekült, de később egy részük visszatért. A háború után elkezdődött az újjáépítés, az élet úgy-ahogy normalizálódott. Az egykor népes településnek 2011-ben már csak 176 lakosa volt.

Lakosság

Nevezetességei
Perna középkori várának maradványai a gornja pernai (Suha Perna) településrész feletti sziklán állnak. 1225-ben említik először. A 14. századtól a Šubićok egyik ágának, a pernai grófoknak a  birtoka. A fennmaradt rajzok alapján külső és belsővárból álló négyszögletes erődítmény volt. Mind a külső, mind a belső várat fal vette körül, melyet hengeres és négyzetes tornyok erősítettek. A külső várba egy különálló kaputornyon keresztül, egy létrán át lehetett bejutni, majd egy újabb létra vezetett a lakótorony bejáratáig.

Perna középkori plébániatemplomának maradványa. A pernai Szűz Mária plébániatemplom a goricai főesperességhez tartozott. 1334-ben Ivan goricai főesperes említi meg. A 16. században a török rombolta le.

Szűz Mária mennybevétele tiszteletére szentelt szerb pravoszláv templomát 1789-ben építették, 1886-ban megújították. 1941-ben az usztasák a faluval együtt felgyújtották. Ezt követően még újjáépítették, de 1995-ben a faluba bevonuló horvát csapatok lerombolták. Azóta rom.

Sokolovići településrészen hagyományos népi építésű lakóház található. A ház mellett több melléképület is  áll, amelyek közül az egyikben kovácsműhely működött. A ház, mely a 21-es szám alatt található 1891-ben épült. Az építés évét a ház földszintjén lévő teherhordó fagerendára írták. A ház hosszúkás, téglalap alaprajzú, az udvari homlokzat közepén kiugró résszel. Alapjai kőből, falai masszív tölgy deszkákból épültek, amelyek az ún. "hrvatsi vugel" technikával kapcsolódtak egymáshoz. Tervezésével, kivitelezésével és felhasznált anyagaival a hagyományosan épített ház a környékbeli népi építészet egyik legértékesebb példája.

FDA Approves Abbott's MitraClip for Heart Failure Patients with Functional Mitral Regurgitation

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has recently approved Abbott Vascular's MitraClip heart valve repair device for heart failure patients with moderate-to-severe or severe mitral regurgitation (MR). This type of MR, commonly known as secondary or functional MR, is due to diminished function of the left heart. The device gained this approval after being originally indicated only for patients with MR resulting from mitral valve abnormalities, dubbed primary or degenerative MR.
"We now know fixing the valve matters. The MitraClip improves survival," said William Abraham, M.D., director of the Cardiovascular division, The Ohio State University, one of the principal investors in the COAPT trial. "I would consider this a landmark trial and a real game-changer for our patients. It is the first time we have ever seen in any randomized, controlled trial an outright reduction in heart failure hospitalizations, all-cause mortality, and improvements in quality of life and exercise to a tremendous magnitude."
The MitraClip is designed to reduce moderate-to-severe MR, a condition where a leakage of blood flows backwards through the mitral valve into the left atrium of the heart. This condition can cause symptoms of heart failure, like fatigue, leg swelling, and shortness of breath.
Heart failure is an abundant condition in the United States, with 6.5 million American adults living with heart failure; it is a progressive, chronic condition, due to the heart being unable to pump the blood necessary for maintaining the body's oxygen levels in blood. Of these patients, those afflicted with MR as well have additional risk of complications during the treatment of their heart failure. Therefore, the MitraClip is a minimally invasive therapy that opens treatment opportunities for a percentage of patients with difficult-to-treat conditions.
"Expanding the approval of this device to heart failure patients with significant secondary mitral regurgitation, who have failed to get symptom relief from other therapies, provides an important new treatment option," said Bram D. Zuckerman, M.D, director of the Division of Cardiovascular Devices in the Center for Devices and Radiological Health. "Careful evaluation by a team of specialists is essential to determining whether a particular patient is an appropriate candidate for this procedure."

Did we have fun 'r what?!!?
30 adventuresome pairs of shoes – 7 from age groups not quite ready for legal consumption of beer – roamed the Kingdom Trails dirt, with a handful of cheerleaders (fidgeting in the cold) glad to be in support mode w/o succumbing to the urge to join in. That, plus the splendid behind-the-bar hosting of Carrie's Village Sports Shop, all made for an exciting first shot of the Series on Vermont's turf!
Since the Series is more about the fun 'n camaraderie of dirt among friends, showing top to bottom time results won't appear here or after other Series offerings, tho some recognition of pace will find space in these posts. F'r'instance, Evan (yes, you'll have to cross-check the Players page if you want more than just first name identification), three times a Junior National competitor, stretched his legs ahead of the pack in the first yards away from the start, easily kept his lead, and likely would've tagged a 2nd loop had he not had his eyes set on this coming weekend's real competition elsewhere. For his efforts, he earned a Bookends Beanie (yup, another diversion for you to visit the FB photos from Thursday to find that gem); his counterpart Ellie earning the other BB. At different speed, young Gabby knocked off her first 5K in many moons, and Macy flew down the last slope to finish anaerobically huffin' 'n puffin'… What to say of the adults? Hmmm, perhaps we'll wait to see if any of their stories land on social media, tho they'll capture notoriety soon enough in these pages!
Melissa, arriving just moments before the start, enjoyed special recognition for her foibles on the Parker Mountain trails the week before, her "fall down, go boom" episode garnering the honor to wear the Blood Cloaking Device (BCD) pre- and post-run. Lucky for her — she does look particularly thrilled, doesn't she? — no one on the KT dirt robbed her of BCD ownership.
A dozen wouldn't be satisfied just one 5K romp in the dirt, leaving the warmth of the Shop for a clockwise capture of the 2nd loop. Five of the dozen were of under beer age spunky vitality; Finn, Naia and Holden gathered up all the trail markers that Snowflea had earlier clipped to branches for easy navigation, and each were rewarded w/ prizes (gators and headlamp) that actually have some value!
This far down, you're itching to see names that correspond w/ the KT Flying Shoes, aren'tcha? OK, for those on KT dirt and for those just curious, here's your list: Nick, Bill, Colleen, Gabby, Kim, Heather, Alan, John, Jon, Melissa, Angela, Bob, Holden, Tina, David, Ellie, Kristina, Daniel, Liza, Katelyn, Naia, Alex, Elise, Finn, Laura, Macy, Laura, Evan, Ben, Mike. Go ahead, assign yourself or others with a time; heck, make up a distance different from what we marked — it's YOUR log book!!

DENVER, Colo.–TRVE Brewing will release Wavering Radiant – described by TRVE as an "American Young Spontaneous Ale" – from their Broadway taproom on Saturday, December 2nd at 12pm. Wavering Radiant is TRVE's first ever spontaneously inoculated beer to release from the Acid Temple (TRVE's sour and wild ale facility).
Wavering Radiant will release solely at the TRVE Brewing taproom. Just over one thousand 500ml cork and capped bottles will be made available on a first-come, first-serve basis.
TRVE Brewing Co. is an award-winning brewery founded in the historic Baker neighborhood of Denver, Colorado. Since its inception on the summer solstice of 2012, TRVE has been a staple of the Denver brewing scene focusing on sessionable and crushable beers presented through the filter of a heavy metal aesthetic. TRVE has set itself apart from the typical experience found in the craft beer community with a wholly unique taproom, in which their original three barrel system resides. In the spring of 2015, TRVE began brewing at the Acid Temple – a ten barrel production facility dedicated to mixed-culture fermentation and experimentation.

Coyote. I hear your pack howling in the middle of the night. When your cries become more excited, a crescendo of high-pitched yipping, it frightens me. I imagine you have cornered your prey. A small animal or maybe someone's pet.
When I first came to Agoura I attended a PTA get acquainted meeting at the local school. One of the moms told me a coyote had gotten their family pet. I was horrified. I did not realize coyotes were living so close to us and that they would attack pets in the backyard.
One time a neighbor's cat was killed, the remains found on the front lawn. I made sure our cat was inside at night. On occasion, she would ignore my calls to come in at dusk. I would listen for her in the night. If I heard any cries or screeching I would imagine the worst.
One early morning, I went out to the front of my house. In the next driveway a large coyote stood staring at me. We made eye contact. Then he slowly loped off down the street.
I have seen coyotes around the area when hiking with my daughter. They do not bother us but just continue on their way.
Coyote. I know we have encroached on your territory more and more and that is why you come hunting in ours.

Helping Ghana's poorest women turn money into honey
Blogs, In the field, Women's rights article written on the 15 Aug 2017
Before she joined the beekeeping program, Augustina's life was soured by hunger and uncertainty. "I used to feel sick and unhappy," she recalls. "It was a sad situation." With three young daughters to feed, and no work opportunity in sight, Augustina struggled. "I couldn't get enough food to feed my children, which made me feel sad as a mother," she says. Between June and August, three in four families in rural Ghana grapple with food shortages. The Hungry Season is especially hard for women because they don't have equal access to farming land and resources — and so their children go hungry. "You could see the children were unhappy and they looked sick," Augustina says. "You could tell they were underfed."
"It's important for me to have an income so that I can look after my children." — Augustina, Ghana
In rural Ghana, incomes depend on farming. But women are typically excluded from the most profitable farming activities, such as raising livestock and growing staple crops. "Land is strictly owned by men," Augustina explains. When Oxfam came to Augustina's community to teach women beekeeping and farming techniques, she leapt at the chance. "I had never kept bees before," she says. "The only beekeeper I knew was a man who harvested wild honey."
"Once I saw that the other women could do it, I knew I could do it too." — Augustina, Ghana
Augustina joined the training group and learnt beekeeping skills from her friend. "Vivianne trained me on how to wear the protective clothes," Augustina recalls, "[and] how to safely set fire to the sawdust for harvesting the honey." At first, she was wary of bee stings. But when Augustina stepped into the protective clothing supplied by Oxfam, she found her confidence.
"I learnt how to observe the hives to see when they were fully matured and ready for harvest and how to gently remove the beeswax to bring it home for processing." Beekeeping has given Augustina and Vivianne a welcome glimpse of independence.
"Each woman used to be paddling their own canoe, but now our burden is shared." — Vivianne, Ghana
"Previously, we thought it was only for men," Vivianne says. "Now, we are in charge and we can do it." Life is much sweeter now for Augustina and her daughters. "We now know we can sell honey and improve our living standards," she says. With her newfound beekeeping skills, Augustina has the power to lift her family out of poverty. "Now I can sell honey, which means I can buy food, schoolbooks, pencils and clothes."
"I am so happy to be one of the first women to be involved in this project." — Augustina, Ghana
"There is a great difference now in my life," Augustina says. "We also eat the honey and, when my children suffer from coughs, I can mix it with a little palm oil to make a medicine." The girls aren't the only ones tasting the benefits of Augustina's honey business. Smiling, she says, "My husband appreciates the fact that I am earning an income." "I have a good relationship with my husband, but it is not normal for men and women to get on well in this area," Augustina says. "Women must submit to men."
"It's important for me to earn an income. What a man can do a woman can do." — Augustina, Ghana
This gender inequality keeps many women poor in rural Ghana, and leaves their dependent children hungry. Vivianne knows this too well. She says, "I am voiceless as a woman. I depend on my husband. I have no power to make decisions." Vivianne hopes for a fairer future for her five daughters — and Oxfam shares her vision. That's why we are working with Ghana's poorest communities to create opportunities for women to take part in the farming that sustains the region.

Can't say the diving in Belize or the Caribbean for that matter can compare to the Pacific, but anytime I'm underwater, I'm happy to be there. It was a mellow and relaxed week. The resort really put out a spread on Thanksgiving as almost all the guests were from the US. The first half of the trip, we had quite a bit of rain, but then it cleared up and enjoyed nice weather the rest of the time.


I made this tool holder and handle a few days ago and got a few of the Radius tool, that is a dream to turn with, turned this Dragon pen and then the Grenade Pen and sold two dear hunter bolt action pens with the Burl wood 85.00 each, I was surprised that he paid that and took two of them.

What happened to POWER SLOT ROTORS? They are still the same great company but have changed their name to STOPTECH ROTORS to better suite their more extensive product line. STOPTECH ROTORS is the world renowned performance and racing division of CENTRIC PARTS the preeminent manufacturer of aftermarket brake components. When they started in 1999, their goal was to become the dominant player in the aftermarket high performance brake component industry. Part of the STOPTECH ROTORS (POWER SLOT ROTORS) resume' is their introduction of balanced brake upgrades that could be used in production cars; additionally, they are behind more than seven hundred innovations that greatly enhance braking performance. A further testament to their success is the abundance of awards STOPTECH has received in the industry and in 2013 STOPTECH earned full ISO/TS 16949:2009 Quality Management certification and then, on various brake kits it received TUV (Technical Inspection Association) approval, German organizations that work to validate the safety of products of all kinds. The POWER SLOT Front Brake Rotors for your 1998-02 Firebird V8 are just one example of the innovative ingenuity of the POWER SLOT engineers with its slotted rotors designed for better cooling and their ability to prevent brake fade by releasing pad gas and dirt from the road and they are mill balanced and completely machined on all surfaces for a high caliber look.

Things aren't looking good for Barneys after a New York arbitrator's ruling means the company's flagship store could soon be facing twice the rent it currently pays, according to The New York Post.
Ashkenazy Acquisition Corp. is now free to make $30 million off of a rent increase thanks to the ruling from last week, according to The New York Post exclusive.
It wouldn't make sense for Barneys to relocate somewhere that's also large because of its lease ending in under six months.
Ashkenazy could take advantage of the space that would be free, or at least take over some of that space. A source speaking with The New York Post added that it would make sense because of how the design of the two buildings suits his needs well. Another source said that the desire to take over that space doesn't have any truth to it.
The Barneys in Beverly Hills, Calif., has ownership by Ashkenazy and is in a position where he wants to keep a good relationship with the landlord.
Ashkenazy's principals didn't comment when the New York Post tried reaching them.
The Jewish Voice has written extensively on this issue in the past.
Now, however, Barney's future in its flagship Manhattan location at 660 Madison Avenue, (surrounded by the finest names in haute couture) is in question. Back in December, it was reported that the retail giant was at loggerheads with its landlord over a possible rent increase. As such, Barney's fate would be determined by an arbitrator, whose services have been solicited in attempts to resolving the monetary issues between the two sides.
Barney's current lease is set to expire in 2019 and the property's owner, Ashkenazy Acquisition is asking for an increase in rent. For months now, the two sides have been immersed in intense negotiations as they grapple to see resolution of precisely what constitutes fair market rent at the property. At present, Barneys pays $20 million per year to rent the nine-story building at Madison Avenue and East 61st Street.
His biography says that Ashkenazy Acquisition is a New York-based firm that invests in retail and office real estate and asserts that it has a portfolio of over 100 buildings. Ashkenazy is the chief executive, chairman, and founder of the company. Along with his company's 660 Madison property, he also has other retail condominiums in shopping districts all within Manhattan. Ben's father, Izzy Ashkenazy, is a businessman also involved in real estate.

'Onlookers were telling them what to do. I could not stand [by] and jumped into the water,' says Mustafa Tosun
By Mucahit Oktay
WASHINGTON (AA) - Mustafa Tosun, a Turkish-American mechanic, was among a few good Samaritans who rushed to the aid of a senior couple whose car had plunged into a canal in Copiague, New York.
The accident, involving three vehicles on Montauk Highway, was first reported Monday by local news channel CBS2.
Tosun, originally from Erzincan, Turkey, jumped into the canal with four other people as the car began sinking to rescue 78-year-old Joseph Abitabile and his 76-year-old wife, Delores.
The car "was in the air, and it landed perfectly in that water there, and that car was going down and down and down," witness Richard Ortmann told CBS2.
Speaking to Anadolu Agency, Tosun said he felt he had to save the couple, noting the man inside the car was someone's father.
"The old man was shouting, saying he did not know how to swim, and onlookers were telling them what to do. I could not [just] stand [there], and jumped into the water," he said.
Tosun has been managing his mechanic shop in the US for 30 years.
"If I had not done it, I would feel remorse," he told Anadolu Agency.

Short-Handed Lakers Run Out Of Gas In Loss To Trail Blazers
Gary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports
Luke Walton Critical Of Referees For Inconsistent Calls Against Lakers In Loss To Trail Blazers
In what was the second night of a back-to-back for teams that were further hampered by the loss of starters to injury, the Portland Trail Blazers and Los Angeles Lakers played the ragged affair one would expect.
The Lakers held a seven-point lead at the end of the first quarter, it was trimmed to five at halftime, and Shabazz Napier led an 8-0 flurry to help the Trail Blazers tie it heading to the fourth quarter.
Portland rode that momentum throughout the final period, answering every Lakers run. The Trail Blazers never led by more than five points in their 95-92 victory.
Lonzo Ball's 3-pointer tied the game with less than two minutes remaining, and Julius Randle's free throw pushed the Lakers ahead. But Maurice Harkless' layup and three-point play proved the difference for Portland.
Napier overcame an 0-for-5 start to finish second on the team with 21 points on 8-of-18 shooting.
Lakers head coach Luke Walton used 12 of his 13 available players, with Josh Hart providing a spark in the stead of Brandon Ingram who was held out due to quad injuries. Hart finished with 11 points and 10 rebounds, all the while playing stellar defense.
The double-double was Hart's second in the past five games. Jordan Clarkson broke out of his recent skid to score 18 points on 7-of-14 shooting.
Ball had 10 points, eight rebounds and 11 assists, playing through a left shoulder contusion sustained just prior to halftime. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope rebounded from his poor night against the Golden State Warriors to chip in with 11 points and nine rebounds.
Though, Caldwell-Pope missed two 3-pointers as the time ticked down in the fourth quarter.
In addition to Clarkson and Caldwell-Pope finding the mark, rookie Kyle Kuzma had his string of consecutive games with at least 20 points snapped at four. Kuzma uncharacteristically didn't shoot well from the floor, going 6-of-19, but he delivered multiple baskets in the fourth quarter.
Julius Randle's minutes continued to come in sporadic and curious fashion, but he again was effective. Randle was second among Lakers bench players with 16 points, to go along with nine rebounds.

On some Unicellular Algæ parasitic within Silurian and Tertiary Corals, with a Notice of their Presence in Calceola sandalina and other Fossils
P. Martin Duncan
Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society, 32, 205-211, 1 February 1876, https://doi.org/10.1144/GSL.JGS.1876.032.01-04.26
John Quekett described, in his lectures at the Royal College of Surgeons in 1851–1852, certain tubes or canals as being very frequently met with in the skeletons of corals; and in his Lectures on Histology, published in 1854, and which contained the subject matter of his previous discourses, he wrote as follows: "Confervoid growths also are very frequently met with in the skeletons of corals, as all these bodies possess animal matter which, decomposing after death, becomes a nidus for the development of confervæ; and hardly a section can be examined without exhibiting such an appearance as shown in fig. 78". This figure shows long, short, and almost straight canals cutting across the normal coral structure at different angles.
In 1859 Kölliker gave the results of his examination of some corals to the Royal Society, in a communication "On the frequent occurrence of vegetable parasites in the hard structures of animals". He said:—"All the genera of corals which I investigated contained parasitical fungi, viz. Astræa diffusa, Porites clavaria, Tubipora musica, Corallium rubrum, Oculina diffusa, Oculina sp., Alloporina mirabilis, Madrepora cornuta, Lophohelia prolifera and Nullipora alcicornis. The fungi were most frequent in the genera Tubipora, Astræa, Porites and Oculina, the last three of which contained also many sporangia, which in the red coral were very scarce or wanting"
Before Quekett lectured, and contemporaneously with his and Kölliker's researches, Dr. Carpenter and C. Wedl investigated the corresponding tubes or canals in shells; and the last-named naturalist communicated a most admirable paper on

Who Should Warn the Public of Nuclear War?
Investigators are blaming human error for the panic-inducing false missile alert in Hawaii last month. They say it was sent out by a state emergency management worker who mistook an exercise for a real attack. At the same time, the incident has exposed what may be a more wide-spread problem: disagreement over whose job it should be to warn the public about missile attacks.

Review: A friend recently told me about a new place in West Lafayette called Wings Etc. He raved about how good the wings were and how often he'd been there for lunch since it opened. Today we were deciding what to have for lunch and wings sounded good, so we headed over to Wings Etc. to try them out. They are located way west on US 52, just past Baja Peninsula in a newish strip mall.
We arrived and the parking lot was pretty full and I was worried that it might be too busy since the Colts game was about to start, but there seemed to be plenty of tables. The inside has a regular seating area and a bar area. Neither were huge, but ample. Large flat screen TVs were hung along every wall with sports playing on each one. It was very typical of any sports bar. We were seated and after a few minutes a waitress arrived to take our drink order. We were all starving so we went ahead and placed our orders at this time.
And then we waited. And waited. And waited. I was about to start chewing on the table when, just over thirty minutes after our arrival, our food came out. I understand it takes time to make food, but I think thirty minutes is excessive in any restaurant. I was getting cranky, the kids were whining, and even my husband was getting annoyed. It was a long wait.
As for the food, it was fine. The menu consists of things like wings and ribs, but also burgers, wraps and salads. I ordered a BBQ chicken wrap. I was starving, so I may have eaten it so fast I couldn't tell, but it was really pretty good. My husband reports that the wings really were quite good, better than BW3 wings. The kids seemed happy with their meal. So while the service was extremely slow, the food was acceptable in a pub food kind of way. I'm hopeful that the slow service was a fluke and I'm definitely willing to give it another shot. I'll just make sure I'm not starving before I head over.

Reviews: '1917,' 'The Sacrament'
April 12, 2020 ~ Tom	~ Leave a comment
THE LARGE SWATHS OF HUMAN EXPERIENCE are the domain of the historians. Eras, wars, empires, kingdoms, presidencies, movements — even pandemics — are contextualized and explained, their antecedents and consequences laid out and analyzed that we might understand not only what happened, but also why and how.
The individual players and moments from those times belong to the storytellers — the writers, painters, musicians, playwrights, and filmmakers. Artists deliver us perspective and meaning that help us make sense, at a human level, of the historians' chronicles.
Sam Mendes's World War I drama 1917 offers up a simple premise. A British force of 1,600 is about to attack what is believed to be the retreating remnants of the German army. Aerial reconnaissance, though, shows a much larger enemy group massing to catch the British in a trap. There are no lines of communication allowing those at the rear to warn the 1,600 not to attack.
A young soldier named Blake is summoned to a makeshift field headquarters; he enlists a fellow comrade in arms, Schofield, to join him. The pair meet with a grim-faced general who charges them with making their way to the attacking troops before they charge the next day, and delivering a letter ordering them to stand down.
Why Blake?
His brother is one of the 1,600.
The wanton destruction and vast suffering wrought by the War to End All Wars — if only — are ever present. But they are brought down to a personal level by Mendes's focus on two soldiers, painfully young men, fighting their way to the front to save lives. It is a completely engrossing story, in no small part because for Blake, the stakes are as high as possible.
The gimmick of the movie is that Mendes filmed it as if it were a single shot, and that only enhances the intimacy. We are never far from Blake and Schofield; we see what they see and only what they see. The scale is personal, which engages us with their quest even more.
Similarly, Olaf Olafsson's trim, quiet novel The Sacrament examines the larger issue of child abuse by Catholic priests through the eyes of a middle-aged French nun. Twenty years after traveling to Iceland to investigate allegations made against a school headmaster, Sister Johanna Marie has been contacted by a man she believed was one of the headmaster's victims as a boy. She is sent by the Vatican, in the form of a cardinal who has long known of a personal secret Johanna Marie carries, back to Reykjavik to meet with the man.
Over the course of her journey, she recalls her life-altering time studying at the Sorbonne, the charming young Icelandic woman she roomed with, and the original investigation, with its intriguing cast of characters.
The themes are overarching — memory, identity, justice, redemption, spirituality. But by giving us the gentle, disarming Johanna Marie to tell the story, and by setting it not amidst the Machiavellian intrigue of St. Peter's or in bustling America but within the relative obscurity of Iceland, Olafsson forces us to look an appalling travesty with much greater focus than we otherwise might.
Additionally, just as Mendes reduced the scope of his story with the single-shot technique, Olafsson only rarely directly quotes anyone. Dialogue is rendered without quotation marks, as if it is not conversations being reported but Johanna Marie herself pulling up a chair and telling us what happened as she recalled it. We are inside her head, living with her doubts and regrets, and it gives the novel emotional punch.
Journalists have been chronicling COVID-19's everyday happenings for months, and they will continue to do so in the months and years to come. Eventually, the historians will weigh in, undoubtedly uncovering even more proof that so much awfulness could have — should have — been prevented.
But it will be the artists who will give all it truly human meaning, just as they have always done. | DL
