New Study Highlights Alleged Accounting Error Regarding COVID Deaths
TruthPeep COVID-19, USA News December 1, 2020 CDC, COVID-19, English, United States, US COVID-19
At the time of this writing, the United States currently maintains the highest number of Covid-19 deaths and ranks 11th for the highest deaths per capita. There have been approximately 262,000 recorded Covid-19 deaths in the United States, which is certainly a concerning number.
However, a new study (link removed or site crashed but now available at Archive.org) published by Dr. Genevieve Briand at Johns Hopkins University notes some critical accounting errors done at the national level. The study – which is still being vetted – simply examines the raw data that should have been questioned months ago. The overall conclusion is that Covid-19, at least according to collected data, is not the killer disease that it is currently hyped up to be. AIER is not endorsing the study as is without further study, but we are interested in the argument being examined and discussed.
Viewing Covid-19 Deaths in Context
It is already well established that Covid-19 is a disease that is most dangerous to those over the age of 65 and who have preexisting conditions. In the United States, there has been an observed2.1% mortality rate, with elderly individuals making up over half that number.
Young and healthy people are not by any significant capacity threatened by Covid-19.
One of the most important factors when it comes to Covid-19 is preventing excess death. According to the CDC,
"Estimates of excess deaths can provide information about the burden of mortality potentially related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including deaths that are directly or indirectly attributed to COVID-19. Excess deaths are typically defined as the difference between the observed numbers of deaths in specific time periods and expected numbers of deaths in the same time periods."
Essentially, there is an average number of deaths every year due to a variety of causes that for the most part have remained constant through the years. This includes morbidities such as heart disease, which has long been the leading cause of death, and cancer, which has long plagued our existence. For Covid-19 to be a serious cause of alarm, it would need to significantly increase the number of average deaths.
However, according to the study,
"These data analyses suggest that in contrast to most people's assumptions, the number of deaths by COVID-19 is not alarming. In fact, it has relatively no effect on deaths in the United States."
Total deaths in the United States show no significant change and even mirror past trends of seasonal illness.
Source: CDC Data, Methodology Included in this Video
According to this graph constructed using data provided by the CDC from the last 6 years, total deaths have remained relatively constant and increases can be explained by various factors such as a larger population. The spikes in deaths in 2020 are consistent with historical trends, only topping 2018 by 11,292 deaths. There have been over 262,000 deaths attributed to Covid-19 in the United States, yet total deaths have not increased in any alarming capacity; they have only mirrored existing trends. In short, according to 6 years of data collected by the CDC, Covid-19 has not led to any significant increase in deaths.
What is even more interesting if not more alarming is that the spike in recorded Covid-19 deaths seen in 2020 has coincided with a proportional decrease in death from other diseases.
Yanni Gu writes
"This suggests, according to Briand, that the COVID-19 death toll is misleading. Briand believes that deaths due to heart diseases, respiratory diseases, influenza and pneumonia may instead be recategorized as being due to COVID-19."
Deaths have remained relatively constant, yet reported deaths due to deadly conditions such as heart disease have fallen while reported Covid deaths have risen. This suggests that the current Covid death count is in some capacity relabeled deaths due to other ailments. According to the graph, reported Covid deaths even overtook heart disease as the main cause of death at one point, which should raise suspicion.
This aligns with many other well-established facts about the virus, such as those with comorbidities are the most at risk. According to the CDC, about 94% of Covid deaths occur with comorbidities. This suggests that it could be possible that a large number of deaths could have been mainly due to more serious ailments such as heart disease but categorized as a Covid-19 death, a far less lethal disease.
Source: John Hopkins News-Letter, provided by Genevieve Briand
According to this graph provided by the study, deaths labeled under Covid-19 increased while deaths labeled under others decreased. It is important to note that this sample only applies to the month of April as the author notes these were the weeks with the highest reported deaths. Gu writes
"The CDC classified all deaths that are related to COVID-19 simply as COVID-19 deaths. Even patients dying from other underlying diseases but are infected with COVID-19 count as COVID-19 deaths. This is likely the main explanation as to why COVID-19 deaths drastically increased while deaths by all other diseases experienced a significant decrease…
"If [the COVID-19 death toll] was not misleading at all, what we should have observed is an increased number of heart attacks and increased COVID-19 numbers. But a decreased number of heart attacks and all the other death causes doesn't give us a choice but to point to some misclassification," Briand replied."
Furthermore, Briand's research notes that the percentage of death has remained relatively constant through all age groups. Covid death statistics seem to mirror the normal distribution of death amongst age groups, further lending credence to the argument that many Covid deaths are recategorized deaths.
Briand provides this graph constructed from CDC data that shows that deaths amongst various age groups have remained relatively constant.
By simply looking at the raw data presented by the CDC Gu writes that
"All of this points to no evidence that COVID-19 created any excess deaths. Total death numbers are not above normal death numbers. We found no evidence to the contrary," Briand concluded.
What Do We Do With This Information?
Briand and likely many others suppose that the extreme emphasis on Covid-19 has led to the unintended classification of the disease as the cause of death. She further stresses that although this data challenges the idea that Covid is an unprecedented and lethal disease, we should still be concerned with mitigating death in general.
However, it is clear that this significant accounting error regarding Covid deaths, if true, is not productive. It has caused mass hysteria and misinformed public policy. Closing down communities to fight a virus that according to the data, has had no significant contribution to total deaths, reduces our overall capacity to build a healthy society.
Lockdowns have resulted in severe damage to our capacity to improve the general health of society. From the catastrophic economic damage that lowers the standard of living for everyone to surgeries being deemed "unessential," our current policies are not helping in preventing deaths in general; they are likely leading to more. Suicides and substance abuse are up, mental and physical health are down, all due to lockdowns.
The late Dr. Donald Henderson, who led the eradication of smallpox, noted in 2006 that
"Experience has shown that communities faced with epidemics or other adverse events respond best and with the least anxiety when the normal social functioning of the community is least disrupted."
The hysteria over Covid-19 has likely led to the alleged accounting error noted in Briand's study, the reclassification of expected deaths from all causes into Covid deaths. That accounting error has likely led to a number of policy decisions that have drastically crippled our ability to support the general welfare of society, economically, socially, and spiritually. Going forward these findings should give us pause and reconsideration over the threat Covid-19 actually poses and realize how much avoidable damage we have done to ourselves as a result.

Jarome Iginla walked into the Saddledome yesterday feeling like it was … well … just yesterday when he was a part of the everyday buzz of the building and Calgary Flames fever.
"Yeah … it does feel like it was just yesterday," said Calgary's man of the hour — and then some — on the eve of Saturday's pre-game ceremony to fete the Flames legend at the Saddledome.
"For sure, you miss the game more when you come here and see the energy in practice — see the guys shooting pucks around," Iginla continued. "You'd like to be out there in a heartbeat. Whenever you could get on a hot streak as a team, that was always the most fun, because it's what you play for.
It's not the only thing he misses since last playing in the National Hockey League nearly two full calendar years ago.
The transition in becoming just an ordinary guy has been no easy task for Iginla.
These days, he tries to find an outlet for his competitive spirit, which was the hallmark of his personality on the ice, wherever he can.
A little fire from Iginla behind the bench as a minor hockey coach has even gotten him kicked out of a game.
"Yeah … I did," said Iginla, with a big smile after being asked if he was indeed ejected by a minor hockey official. "I really enjoy coaching. I'm probably a little more intense than I thought I'd be, but I'm really enjoying it and learning on the job.
Such is life post-NHL — something that takes some adjustment for all retired pros, Iginla included.
"It wasn't easy," Iginla said. "The whole first year, I was trying to get back in shape after hip surgery. I was thinking, 'If I can just get in back, I can try and play in maybe the Spengler Cup. And if I could do well there, maybe I could go to the Olympics — that would be exciting again. And then if it goes well there, maybe I could get on a playoff team.
"That whole first year, I was out of it, but I didn't know I was out of it. So it wasn't too tough.
Especially a guy like Iggy, who's passion for the game is easy to spot.
On Friday, he let us know just how memorable it all was for him, from a very young age.
How he loved playing minor hockey in Alberta — he won the provincials three times.
How he loved playing junior hockey with the Western Hockey League's Kamloops Blazers, with whom he won the Memorial Cup … twice.
How he loved playing in the world juniors, with whom he won gold, and in the Olympic Games, where two more golds followed.
And, of course, he loved playing for the Stanley Cup in 2004.
He misses the camaraderie of being in the dressing room and on airplanes — with all the bantering and video and card games — with teammates.
He misses the C of Red and The Red Mile, especially when it was in all its glory in 2004.
It was "really neat" to score his 50th goal against the Canucks in 2008 and seeing his teammates trying so desperately to get him that milestone marker in the final game of the regular season.
And it goes on and on and on for him.
"There was some really cool individual memories and some really, really cool team ones," Iginla said.


The small island of Malta, just south of Italy in the Mediterranean, is a beautiful holiday destination at any time of year.
With centuries of history due to its strategic position, Malta is the perfect combination of relaxation and culture – not to mention its gorgeous Mediterranean subtropical warm and dry climate boasting more than 300 sunny days a year! And with lively nightlife scenes too, the Mediterranean slice of paradise ticks all the boxes.
Tempted? There are countless reasons to choose this gorgeous sun-drenched archipelago, consisting of only three inhabited islands; Malta, Gozo and Comino. Check out our top 5 reasons to say yes!
Malta's capital city of Valletta, located in the central-eastern part of the main island, is rich in sites to explore and cultural hot spots. The eclectic port town is home to the Upper Barrakka Gardens, twinned with the Lower Barrakka Gardens, open to the public offering a stunning panoramic view of the Grand Harbour. A visit to Saint John's Co-Cathedral, dedicated to Saint John the Baptist, is also a must. You can also explore the National Museum of Archaeology, housed in the Auberge de Provence. Steeped in history, it's no wonder the city of Valletta has been granted status of a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
You can explore thousands of years of the past through epic scenery and fascinating historical architecture on a holiday to Malta. From St Paul's Cathedral in Mdina to the underground burial site of the Hypogeum in Paola, there's plenty to fill your island holiday itinerary. The Tarxien Temples in Tarxien are a must-see, as a UNESCO World Heritage Site made up of four megalithic structures.
Alternatively, Malta's picturesque fishing village of Marsaxlokk, in the south eastern part of the island, is also a great place to visit, offering an open-air market, tranquil walking routes and quiet swimming locations.

Kabbalah Centre Officially Under Investigation For Tax Evasion
Margaret Hartmann
Since it was revealed that Madonna's Raising Malawi charity is in financial ruin, rumors have been circulating that the I.R.S. is looking into the Kabbalah Centre. Now we have confirmation. The semi-religous, semi-cultlike organization, which counts Gwyneth Paltrow, Ashton Kutcher, and Demi Moore among its followers, is the focus of a federal tax evasion investigation.
We heard this from Showbiz 411's anonymous sources in March, but now the Los Angeles Times has the official story. In addition to two charities connected to the Centre and Madonna, Raising Malawi and Spirituality for Kids, I.R.S. officials are trying to determine if non-profit funds were used to fund the lavish lifestyle of the Bergs, who founded the Kabbalah Centre. (That's what Newsweek suggested in a recent exposé.)
IRS Investigates Madonna's Charity & Kabbalah Centre
Both the Kabbalah Centre and Raising Malawi, the troubled charity Madonna founded with Kabbalah…
Representatives for the Centre and the two charities say they've received subpoenas and are the subject of the grand jury probe. Supposedly they're "actively cooperating in every way we can." The investigation is taking place both in New York, where the Centre has a large brand and some pricy real estate, and L.A., where it's headquartered.
Most of the Kabbalah Centre's sordid business dealings were already catalogued by Newsweek. The investigation is particularly complicated because there are more than a dozen separate nonprofits and businesses connected to the Bergs. Since the Centre has had tax-exempt status as a church since the '90s, it's not required to make its tax filings public, but a former CFO says it has $60 million in annual revenue, a $200 million real estate portfolio, and a $60 million investment fund.
The juiciest detail from the new report comes from another former CFO. A source says investigators have reviewed an August 2010 email in which Nicholas Vakkur claimed he was fired for pointing out problems with the Centre's finances. The email reads in part:
"I recently uncovered instances of income tax fraud at the Kabbalah Centre - instances which could bankrupt several of the directors involved … this is very serious business ... I have little choice but to cooperate with the IRS and bring down the entire Kabbalah Centre."
Madonna isn't being investigated personally, but since she's the most well-known face of Kabbalah and has donated millions to the Centre, she still has plenty to be worried about.

Wouldn't be easier to just abolish the tax-exempt status for churches? It's supposed to keep churches out of the political process, but as we've all seen in the past 20 years, very few churches (especially the Catholic and Mormon church) adhere to the IRS rules and abstain from giving boatloads of cash and openly endorsing candidates they support.
Additionally, it encourages cults like the FDLS, Scientology, the Branch Davidians and Kaballah , because they can take advantage of the tax status. As L Ron Hubbard famously said, "Religion. That's where the money is."

People. A very significant part of our lives. They can heal you and they can scar you for life. There's a saying, "Tell me your friend, I will tell who you are." Heard of it? Of course, yes. But ever followed it? Nope? I did and it changed the way things are around me and the way I deal with the situations. You ask me if it's really that important?? Yes, yes, yes. The kind of people you hang out with defines your vibe and mindset. I remember another saying in my native tongue that says if you spend the most time with someone, you would acquire a few of the traits of the other. And it can't be any truer. So… why and how I choose people in my life with utmost care??
First, let's see why I choose people.
Because, when we are sad we expect someone to console us and what if we seek that from a person who is negative. They will just worsen our mood adding more negative thoughts to your mind. And likewise, when you had a failure you need more people who can say 'Try again, you can do it this time for sure,' rather than people who say, 'why waste time? Try something else,' or worse, 'I told you-you can't.' See why it's so essential to choose people??
You know, we can choose our thoughts and hence our attitude. But most of us can't. Why? Because of the people that we are surrounded by and their adverse comments. That's when you CHOOSE. Right? It's a need to stay in such environment that can foster your progress. You have the right to choose the things that are good for you. If something/someone hinders your progress and mental health in any way, you should unchoose them.
You can only have power over your actions, you cannot choose how the other person behaves/talks. So, before the opposite person makes his move and threatens your mental peace, choose to unchoose such people.
Now, how I choose people.
Choose someone who brings out the best in you. If not the best, at least they shouldn't bring out the madness in you.
We all want to be appreciated. Either for our work or attitude or a deed, we all expect appreciation. In case we don't get that, we eventually lose the zeal to learn/work.
Choose someone who points out a good thing happened to you on your worst day. It's very rare to find such people but when you did, you should hold on to them.
Never let go of the people who stick to you in your bad times – This is an old saying. I say, never let go of the ones who are genuinely happy when you succeed. They are quite special too.
If you can't completely cut all the connections with someone, at least limit the interaction. I totally avoided such interactions, even if I bumped into them once in a while, I only kept the conversation general, without touching any personal matters.
Basically, who you think has a negative impact on you should be avoided.
We all have an idea as to who we like and who we not, who help us and who don't, but still, most of us stay in adverse environments. It won't be any different until you make a strong will to take a step. Right choice at the right time can set you on the right path for the rest of your life.
Recommendation: What's your priority now?
After I escaped from all such negative interactions, I found myself a little more relaxed. Until then I was more stressed, overthinking everything, depressed, self-doubting, second-guessing myself. But once I took that step, the picture was clearer.
I had a lot of time to concentrate on building myself for my goals and ambitions. I had less to worry about, hence I had more time for myself. Frankly, it surprised me how much we can do if we could just shift our focus off of unwanted negative issues.
All the things that used to stress me a lot seemed so small like they never mattered at all. When I deleted questions like 'what will people think?' 'What will people say if I did this?' I could do everything I loved. I felt I'm the only one that's important, again.
When I could get rid of all the demotivating noise around me I could listen to my mind voice loud and clear. I discovered new energy inside of me to work harder and succeed.

L'emberà septentrional, també conegut com a emberà occidental i cholo, és la més parlada de les varietats de l'emberà. Es parla en gran part a Colòmbia, però també és la llengua principal de la península de Darién a Panamà. La llengua Emberá es divideix en dues branques: nord i sud. Dos destacats grups del nord són Emberá Darien i Katio. La llengua katio és parlada per 10.000 - 20.000 persones, la taxa d'alfabetització és de l'1%. La llengua emberà darién la parlen 9.000-10.000 persones.

Classificació
L'emberà del nord és un dialecte que prové d'Embera que forma part de la família chocó. La família chocó inclou dues llengües, el Waunana i el grup dels dialectes emberà. Els dialectes d'Emberá formen un continu dialectal amb dos subgrups geogràficament definits: la branca Nord conté l'Emberá del nord propi (anomenat 'Emberá del Nord' a Mortensen 1999) i el dialecte katío.

Història
Els waunana i emberà són els darrers vestigis d'un grup més gran d'ètnies precolombines, com els Orominas, els Chancos, els Guarras, els Burrumías, que van ser disminuïts durant el període colonial. Les troballes genètiques mostren que els parlants de llengües chocó es diferencien genèticament de les tribus de parla txibtxa del nord de Colòmbia i s'agrupen amb les poblacions indígenes orinoques i amazòniques. Waunana i emberà comparteixen un gran nombre de cognats (estimat al 50% per Loewen 1960: 12), que aporten proves del seu origen comú.

Diseases and insects that are deadly to trees and forests in Ontario can be transported on firewood. Wooden shipping pallets are used to package and support shipments of goods from overseas. The wood that is used in the pallets may come from trees in Asia, Europe, or South America. Although the wood in these pallets can be treated, shipping pallets and other wooden packaging materials have the potential to carry exotic invasive pathogens and insect pests that can kill trees in North America. This is how Emerald Ash Borer and Asian Long-horned Beetles arrived in Ontario.
Learn to identify invasive species that are a threat to Ontario.
Buy and burn local firewood when visiting campgrounds, travelling to you cottage or hunt camp, and visiting natural areas.
If you think you've seen an invasive species in the wild, please contact the Invading Species Hotline at 1-800-563-7711, or visit the EDDMapS Ontario website to report a sighting.

Il Volo delle oche selvatiche (Flight of the Wild Geese) si riferisce innanzitutto specificamente alla partenza di un esercito irlandese giacobita sotto il comando di Patrick Sarsfield, dall'Irlanda alla Francia, in applicazione del Trattato di Limerick. Il fatto avvenne il 3 ottobre 1691, al termine della Guerra guglielmita in Irlanda.

In senso più generale, la locuzione Oche selvatiche è usata nella storia irlandese per riferirsi ai soldati di quel paese che emigrarono per prestare servizio negli eserciti continentali dal XVI secolo fino al diciottesimo (il fenomeno venne infatti contrastato seriamente intorno al 1750).

Servizio in Spagna
Le prime truppe irlandesi impiegate come unità militare da una potenza continentale formarono un reggimento nell'esercito spagnolo delle Fiandre durante la Guerra degli ottanta anni verso il 1580. Il reggimento era stato fondato da un cattolico inglese, William Stanley, reclutando in Irlanda nativi e mercenari "non graditi" alle autorità britanniche (si veda la Riconquista Tudor dell'Irlanda per ulteriori dettagli). Stanley aveva ricevuto da Elisabetta I d'Inghilterra l'incarico di guidare il reggimento, a favore degli inglesi, in sostegno delle Province Unite. Tuttavia, nel 1585, motivato da fattori religiosi ma anche allettato dalla somma offertagli dagli iberici per cambiar partito, Stanley passò al servizio degli spagnoli con tutto il suo reggimento. Nel 1598 Diego Brochero de Anaya scrisse a Filippo III di Spagna:

L'unità combatté in Olanda fino al 1600, quando si dissolse in conseguenza alle gravi perdite dovute a combattimenti e a malattie.

Nel 1607 avvenne la Fuga dei Conti, quando gli sconfitti della Ribellione di Tyrone, i conti Hugh O'Neill e Rory O'Donnell, assieme a molti capi dell'Ulster, con i loro seguaci, lasciarono l'Irlanda. Speravano di ricevere aiuto dalla Spagna per rinfocolare la loro ribellione in Irlanda, ma il re Filippo III di Spagna, che non desiderava riprendere le ostilità con i britannici, respinse il loro appello.

Nondimeno, il loro arrivo portò alla formazione di un nuovo reggimento irlandese nelle Fiandre, i cui ufficiali erano nobili irlandesi gaelici, e la cui truppa proveniva da seguaci e dipendenti di costoro in Irlanda. Questo reggimento era più apertamente politico del precedente "spagnolo", e in particolare osteggiava decisamente il governo protestante inglese d'Irlanda. Era guidato dal figlio (John) di Hugh O'Neill. Tra gli ufficiali spiccavano Owen Roe O'Neill e Hugh Dubh O'Neill.

Nel 1609, Arthur Chichester, poi divenuto Lord Deputy of Ireland, deportò 1300 ex-soldati ribelli dall'Ulster costringendoli a prestare servizio nell'esercito svedese. Tuttavia, anche per influsso del clero cattolico, molti di loro disertarono dedicandosi al servizio in Spagna.

Una nuova fonte di reclutamento derivò dall'esclusione (decretata in principio del XVII secolo) dei cattolici dai pubblici uffici (militari compresi) in Irlanda. Di conseguenza, le unità irlandesi di Spagna iniziarono ad attrarre ufficiali cattolici Old English, quali Thomas Preston e Garret Barry. Questi uomini erano più favorevoli alla causa inglese rispetto alle loro controparti gaeliche, e si determinò un certo malumore per i progetti di usare il reggimento per l'invasione dell'Irlanda nel 1627. Il reggimento fu impiegato come guarnigione a Bruxelles durante la Guerra degli Ottant'Anni tra il 1609 e il 1621 e maturò intensi legami con il clero cattolico del locale seminario, in particolare con Florence Conroy.

Molti di questi soldati irlandesi "di Spagna" fecero ritorno in patria dopo la ribellione irlandese del 1641 e combatterono nelle schiere dell'Irlanda confederata — un movimento cattolico irlandese. Quando i confederati furono sconfitti e l'Irlanda occupata durante la riconquista dell'Irlanda per opera di Oliver Cromwell, circa 34 000 ex combattenti confederati lasciarono il paese per praticare il mestiere delle armi in Spagna. Alcuni di loro poi disertarono o comunque abbandonarono il campo spagnolo per prestare servizio in Francia, ove si riteneva che le condizioni fossero migliori. Ancora al tempo delle Guerre napoleoniche esistevano tre reggimenti irlandesi nell'esercito spagnolo: Irlanda (fondato nel 1698), Hibernia (1709) e Ultonia (1709). Tuttavia, negli ultimi anni della loro esistenza, soltanto gli ufficiali erano irlandesi (almeno per discendenza), mentre i soldati erano prevalentemente spagnoli o stranieri di altra provenienza. Tutti e tre i reggimenti furono poi disciolti nel 1815.

Servizio in Francia
Il "Volo delle oche selvatiche" propriamente detto

Dal 1650 circa, la Francia superò la Spagna come méta preferita dei cattolici irlandesi che cercavano un impiego militare. Il principale motivo di tale cambiamento risiedeva nell'ascendente fortuna della Francia quale potenza continentale, interessata ad espandere rapidamente le proprie forze armate (laddove per Madrid valeva un'opposta constatazione storica).

La Francia arruolava stranieri in gran copia: Tedeschi, Italiani, Valloni e Svizzeri. André Corvisier, forse il più autorevole storico in fatto di archivi militari francesi, calcola nel 12% in tempo di pace — e nel 20% in tempo di guerra — la quota di stranieri nelle truppe francesi dell'epoca. Nei reggimenti irlandesi si guadagnava di più — ceteris paribus — che nei corrispondenti reparti francesi, e si vestiva la giubba rossa dell'esercito britannico.

Il punto cruciale di svolta vi fu durante la Guerra guglielmita in Irlanda (1688-1691) quando Luigi XIV di Francia concesse appoggio militare e finanziario ai giacobiti. In cambio di 6 000 soldati francesi, Luigi chiese 6 000 reclute irlandesi da impiegare nella Guerra della Lega di Augusta contro gli olandesi. Questi uomini, comandati da Justin McCarthy, visconte di Mountcashel, formarono il nucleo della brigata irlandese di Francia.

In seguito, quando gli irlandesi giacobiti di Patrick Sarsfield si sottomisero al Trattato di Limerick (3 ottobre 1691), fu loro permesso di lasciare l'Irlanda per prestare servizio in Francia. L'esodo di Sarsfield riguardò 14 000 soldati e 10 000 donne e bambini. Questo specifico episodio è propriamente detto, nella cultura popolare irlandese, "Il volo delle oche selvatiche".

Inizialmente questi reparti non erano integrati nell'esercito francese, ma facevano capo alla corte in esilio di Giacomo II d'Inghilterra — deposto dalla Gloriosa rivoluzione — che re Luigi considerava il legittimo re di Inghilterra, Irlanda e Scozia. Più tardi furono incorporati nella ricordata Brigata irlandese dell'esercito francese.

Al pari delle prime unità che operarono in Ispagna, i reggimenti irlandesi di Francia erano piuttosto politicizzati, essendo composti di cattolici irlandesi defraudati, che ovviamente avevano un interesse personale in un'ipotetica restaurazione degli Stuart nelle isole britanniche. Notoriamente, la Brigata irlandese si distinse alla battaglia di Fontenoy, combattuta contro gli inglesi nel 1745.

Fino al 1745, alla piccola nobiltà cattolica irlandese fu permesso di reclutare in Irlanda soldati per la Francia. Le autorità dell'Irlanda consideravano ciò meno destabilizzante che il rischio di avere una massa di giovani irlandesi disoccupati e idonei alle armi in giro per il Paese. Tuttavia, dopo che un contingente irlandese composito, proveniente dalla Francia, (tratto da ciascuno dei reggimenti inclusi nella Brigata irlandese e noti come "Irish Picquets") fu usato per rinforzare la Rivolta giacobita del 1745 in I scozia, gli inglesi compresero i pericoli di siffatta politica, e misero al bando il reclutamento in Irlanda a favore di potenze straniere. Da quel momento, il personale dei cosiddetti reparti irlandesi di Francia sarà sempre più costituito da elementi non irlandesi, anche se gli ufficiali continueranno ad essere reclutati in Irlanda.

Durante la Guerra dei sette anni si fece ogni sforzo per reclutare combattenti tra i prigionieri irlandesi o tra chi aveva disertato l'esercito inglese. A parte questa eccezione, il reclutamento era limitato ad un rigagnolo di volontari irlandesi che riuscivano con la loro intraprendenza a raggiungere la Francia, oppure discendevano da membri della Brigata irlandese trapiantati definitivamente in Francia. Questi erano i reggimenti irlandesi che combatterono per la Francia nella guerra dei Sette Anni: Bulkeley, Clare, Dillon, Rooth, Berwich e Lally. Vi era pure un reggimento di cavalleria denominato Fitz James. Alla fine del XVIII secolo anche gli ufficiali dei reggimenti irlandesi erano tratti da famiglie franco-irlandesi stabilitesi in Francia da diverse generazioni. Benché francesi in tutto fuorché nel cognome, queste famiglie facevano un punto d'orgoglio della loro origine gaelica.

A seguito degli stravolgimenti connessi alla Rivoluzione francese, la Brigata irlandese cessò di esistere il 21 luglio 1791, quando i 12 reggimenti stranieri "non-svizzeri" esistenti all'epoca furono integrati nei ranghi della fanteria francese, perdendo le proprie caratteristiche quanto a status, titoli e uniformi. Molti lasciarono il servizio alla deposizione di Luigi XVI (1792), considerato pure che il loro giuramento di fedeltà era intercorso con il sovrano, e non con il popolo francese. Napoleone Bonaparte più tardi istituì un piccolo reparto di veterani della Ribellione irlandese del 1798.

Servizio in Austria
In questo stesso periodo, vi era anche un consistente numero di ufficiali e soldati irlandesi al servizio della monarchia asburgica; molti di loro erano di stanza a Praga. Il più famoso di tali uomini fu Peter Lacy, feldmaresciallo di Russia, il cui figlio Franz Moritz von Lacy si era valorosamente distinto sotto le bandiere d'Austria. Merita d'essere ricordato anche il collega di Lacy, e suo comandante, maresciallo Maximilian Ulysses Browne, comandante in capo delle forze austriache alla battaglia di Lobositz (1º ottobre 1756, Guerra dei Sette Anni).
Molti anni prima, durante la Guerra dei Trent'Anni, alcuni ufficiali irlandesi capitanati da Walter Deveraux avevano assassinato il generale Alberto di Wallenstein per ordine dell'imperatore. Il reclutamento per il servizio in Austria era soprattutto associato al centro-Irlanda e alle famiglie della gentry Taafe, Nugent e O'Rourke.

Servizio in Svezia
Nel 1609, Arthur Chichester, poi divenuto Lord Protettore d'Irlanda, deportò 1300 ex soldati-ribelli dell'Ulster destinati a prestare servizio nell'esercito svedese. Tuttavia, per l'influenza del clero cattolico, molti di loro disertarono, ponendosi al servizio della Spagna.

Servizio in Italia
Malgrado che sia un argomento piuttosto negletto dagli studiosi, l'antico e tradizionale mestiere delle armi in Italia era ampiamente praticato pure dagli irlandesi. Il tercio di Lucas Taf (circa 500 uomini) prestò servizio a Milano verso il 1655. Anche l'esercito dei Savoia comprendeva irlandesi, tanto da dedicare loro un reggimento:il reggimento Desportes.
Nel 1694 a Milano esisteva un reggimento composto esclusivamente di irlandesi.
Dell'intero esercito spagnolo a Milano (20 000 effettivi circa) il 3-4% era costituito da irlandesi. Non è un valore molto alto, ma si trattava di una componente qualitativamente importante. In tale contesto, James FitzJames, I duca di Berwick e di Liria è solo uno degli esempi di questo successo. Iniziò a servire la monarchia nel 1711 e riuscì a diventare Tenente generale nel 1732, ambasciatore in Russia, in Austria e a Napoli, dove morì.

Estinzione del fenomeno
Il reclutamento in Irlanda andò scemando da quando fu posto fuori legge nel 1745. Nel 1732 Sir Charles Wogan indicava in una lettera a Dean Swift che 120 000 irlandesi erano stati feriti o uccisi nel servizio all'estero "in questi quattro anni", al che Swift rispose:
"Non posso far altro che esprimere profonda stima per quei gentiluomini che, con tutti gli svantaggi di essere esiliati e forestieri, sono stati capaci di distinguersi per valore e condotta in tutta Europa, penso, al di sopra delle altre nazioni."
Fu poco prima che le forze armate inglesi iniziassero ad attingere personale dai cattolici irlandesi. Alla fine del XVIII secolo, le Leggi penali furono gradualmente allentate, e negli anni 1790 fu abrogata la legge che proibiva ai cattolici di portare armi.

Da quel momento, gli inglesi iniziarono a reclutare irlandesi per le forze armate della Corona — comprese unità famose come i Connaught Rangers. È stato stimato che fino al 40% dell'esercito guidato da Wellington nella Guerra peninsulare fosse irlandese. Verso il 1830 era irlandese più del 42% dell'esercito britannico (gli inglesi propriamente detti erano il 41%). Parecchi altri reparti di irlandesi furono istituiti nel XIX secolo.

Nel 1914 vi erano reggimenti dichiaratamente irlandesi nell'esercito del Regno Unito: il Prince of Wales's Leinster Regiment, il Royal Dublin Fusiliers, lo Irish Guards, il Royal Irish Regiment, il Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers, il Royal Irish Rifles, il Royal Irish Fusiliers, il Connaught Rangers (già ricordato) e il Royal Munster Fusiliers. Quando nel 1922 nacque lo Stato Libero d'Irlanda, cinque di questi reggimenti furono disciolti. La Gran Bretagna mantiene ancora lo Irish Guards e il Royal Irish Regiment.

Cultura di massa
 Per gli anglosassoni è verosimilmente ovvio il collegamento logico tra il fenomeno qui descritto e il titolo di un film di guerra, The Wild Geese, che in Italia è stato tradotto come I quattro dell'Oca selvaggia.
 Con il termine anatre selvatiche si fa riferimento all'emigrazione irlandese per motivi politici anche nell'Ulisse di James Joyce.
 Nel manga Hellsing di Kōta Hirano e negli OVA derivati, vi è un gruppo di mercenari chiamato appunto Wild Geese; questo perché il capitano dell'associazione, Pip Bernadotte, è di origini francesi, e ciò si riferisce ai servigi che gli esiliati irlandesi resero alla Francia nel 1650.

    void Update () {
        if (Input.GetKeyDown("space"))
              Maincamera.transform.position=Vector3.Lerp(transform.position, #stack overflow messed up here, side and bottom lines of code are one#
               Targetposition.transform.position, speed * Time.deltaTime);
    }
}

is as far as i could get

A: I have drafted up an answer that will work, but you will probably need to tweak it.
Firstly I use these variables
Vector3[] vecArray;
int changer;
float speed = 20f;

In your start you will fill vecArray with desired positions.
vecArray = new Vector3[] {new Vector3(2,40,90), new Vector3(60, 44, 29) , new Vector3(30, 9, 42) };

Now Update
        if (Input.GetKeyDown("space"))
    {
        changer++;
        if (changer >= vecArray.Length)
            changer = 0;

    }

    //If script is not attached the main camera will need to be found
    //Camera.main works if it is the main camera you are moving

    //first we will lerp toward object
    if (Vector3.Distance(vecArray[changer], transform.position) > .1)
    {
        transform.position = Vector3.Lerp(transform.position,
           vecArray[changer], speed * Time.deltaTime);
    }//snap when close to stop camera lerp if it cannot get exactly to position
    else
        transform.position = vecArray[changer];

This code will allow you to keep switching camera positions but that can easily change. To explain quickly whats happens. You change index by adding one each press. if it is greater than array length it goes back to zero. The lerp if is a quick solution and that hard coded .1 is to snap preventing bad lerp behavior. If your code gets more complex you can even use this code on a list. If you are still unsure of whats going on just add a comment.

Austol (; ) was a 6th-century Cornish holy man who lived much of his life in Brittany.

He was a friend of Méen, who founded the Saint-Méen Abbey in Brittany. Méen is said to have been his godfather. The parish and town of St Austell in Cornwall is named in his honour. He is regarded as a saint and is honoured with a Breton feast day on 28 June and a Cornish feast day on the Thursday of Whitsun. According to tradition, Austol died within a week after the death of Méen. Before the Reformation, the parishes of St Austell and St Mewan celebrated together because of the friendship between the two saints.

Every home has a roof (duh!) but does every homeowner look after their roof? More to the point, do you even know how or why you should look after your roof? The majority of us don't realize how important it is to take care of the roofing that sits atop our home. With that in mind, I've put together this guide that will tell you everything you need to know. This includes why you should maintain your roof, how to do it, and any other things to be aware of.
Why Do You Need To Maintain Your Roof?
A roof inspection is easily one of the most critical things to perform when it comes to your home's exterior. Inspecting your roof now can help to avoid enormous issues in the future. Rain, snow, wind and storms all play a part in potential roof damage, but if you know what to look for when inspecting your roof, the easier it will be to be proactive with maintenance.
As mentioned, your roof provides protection from weather, notably rain or snow, but also heat, wind and sunlight. Without a roofing system, your home would be un-insulated and exposed to the elements. Did you know that your roof also plays a very vital role when it comes to insulating your home? A poorly insulated roof can cause problems such as the formation of ice dams around the overhanging eaves in cold weather, causing water from melted snow to penetrate the roofing material. This can result in structural damage from stress, including the destruction of gutter and drainage systems. When damages occur, and holes or cracks start to appear, your insulation is jeopardized. As a consequence, your heating bills begin to soar throughout the winter season, as does your cooling bills in summer. Additionally, you run the risk of interior water damage from leaks through cracks and tears in the roofing material, putting yet another another strain on your wallet.
By looking after your roof, you can keep your home nicely insulated, free from damage and safe from the elements.
Our first suggestion, as is almost always the case, is to call in a professional. There are many home improvement and roofing companies, like Wildwood Roofing and Construction, that will perform a free inspection of your roof, and if any repairs are needed, will provide you with a free estimate for services. Also, check the warranty on your roof, if you have one: in some cases there are lifetime warranties on materials, should they get damaged through normal wear and tear. A good professional will also warranty their labor for a certain number of years as well.
Perform a visual inspection of your shingles. You might laugh, but having a drone is the perfect tool for aerial inspections! If you don't happen to have a drone, use binoculars and a ladder to get a view. If you do climb on your roof, don't do it alone! Take proper precaution by wearing work boots, a hard hat and a safety protection system, and try your best to avoid stepping on damaged areas.
Clear any debris you see, as well as you can. Debris like leaves and twigs can get caught in corners and valleys of your roof, and along dormers and eaves.
Clear away any clogged gutters. Consider adding gutter guards to your gutters so this doesn't become a regular issue. Also, check the downspouts for any clogs.
Any broken or missing shingles should immediately be patched with cement. However, large portions of missing roofing materials needs to be handled by a professional.
Check your flashing (flashing is the metal around the joints in the roof, along valleys, chimneys and vents). Make sure it's intact and not peeling away.
Leave it to the pros, no matter how good you are home maintenance!
What If You Need A Professional?
Sometimes, you just have to throw up your hands and admit defeat. Patch job after patch job is as ugly as it is ineffective. While most newer roofs are designed to last decades, older roofs are just not made with the same advanced materials today's roofs are. Remember, a good way to tell if yours needs replacing is if you or a pro performs a visual inspection. While installing a new roof can be a pricey proposition, many reputable roofing companies have coupons, extend discounts and even offer financing to ease the pain a bit.
Oh, and one last thing--perform a visual inspect of your roof at least every 2 years, after 10 years of it's original install. After 15 years, your roof should be inspected at least once a year. And always check your roof immediately after a serious storm has passed and it's safe to do so.

It was the largest of a set of three electric launches which carried paying passengers for trips of about 40 minutes duration from the steps on the downstream, north (...Read full memory)

My mother worked for Bedford Plating in Bedford in 1955. If anyone remembers this business and what street or even the address of it, would be greatly appreciated. The purpose for this, is my God-parents lived very near Bedford Plating and owned a small retail store on the corner of one of the streets. Any help would be appreciated. Thankyou in advance.

Q: Getting values from properties file into batch file @echo off
SETLOCAL
For /F "tokens=1* delims==" %%A IN (build.properties) DO (
    IF "%%A"=="projectPath" set lprojectPath=%%B
    IF "%%A"=="warSourcePath" set lwarSourcePath=%%B
    IF "%%A"=="warDestinationPath" set lwarDestinationPath=%%B
    IF "%%A"=="serverPath" set lserverPath=%%B
)

echo "%lprojectPath%"
echo "%lwarSourcePath%"
echo "%lwarDestinationPath%"
echo "%lserverPath%"

I have a properties file named build.properties(key=value). when I run the above bat file echo prints "" an empty string in cmd and I am not able to use the variable values else where in the bat file. I am I making any mistake in retrieval of values from properties file.
projectPath = D:\DEV_R4.6_bat_test\brsint-web\brisnt-scheduling
warSourcePath = D:\DEV_R4.6_bat_test\brsint-web\brsint-webapp\target\Bristow.war
warDestinationPath = D:\apache-tomcat-7.0_1.2Latest (2)\webapps
serverPath = D:\apache-tomcat-7.0_1.2Latest (2)\bin

This is my properties file.

A: In a similar setup for a name=value .ini I use,
FOR /f %%a IN (db.ini) DO SET %%a

%%a expands after the SET command as name=value, thus creating the variable. eg; SET name=value
If the "l" character is essential write the line with the "l" preceding the parameter:
FOR /f %%a IN (build.properties) DO SET l%%a

A: uh - there are spaces in your build.properties. Spaces are critical with the set command. Use:
@echo off
setlocal
for /f "tokens=1,* delims== " %%a in (build.properties) do set "l%%a=%%b"
REM note the space in delims
set l

Your original code defines variables like %projectPath % (note the space) with contents like <SPACE>D:\DEV_R4.6_bat_test\brsint-web\brisnt-scheduling

Florida Cop who Shot Woman during Training Exercise will Serve no Jail Time
The Florida cop who shot and killed a woman during a citizen police academy "shoot/don't shoot scenario" training exercise will serve no jail time.
Lee Coel was a Punta Gorda police officer when he shot and killed Mary Knowlton in 2016. Knowlton was a 73-year-old retired librarian who enrolled in the citizen police academy to show her support for police. She was killed in front of 35 other people, including her husband.
Coel, who had a history of abusing citizens, said he believed the gun he was using contained blanks. Instead, it contained real bullets.
He was charged with felony manslaughter with a firearm and was fired from his job shortly after. He was facing up to 30 years in jail as well as a $10,000 fine, according to NBC News.
Last week, he agreed to a plea deal that will have him serve ten years of probation with no jail time.
So just how did Coel confuse live ammo for blanks?
Coel used a .38 caliber Smith & Wesson revolver during the demonstration. Coel reportedly loaded it with bullets given to him by another officer. That officer told investigators they were moving and "had some old ammunition they wanted to get rid of." The officer believed the two boxes of ammunition given to Coel were filled with blank rounds.
Coel reportedly tested the .38 revolver with the ammunition he was given during a demonstration at the CCSO shooting range sometime in July 2016, weeks before Knowlton's death.
Investigators determined Coel did not realize he was shooting live rounds at the range.
Coel reportedly used the same ammunition on August 9th when Knowlton was shot. Investigators say he stored the ammunition in the back of his K-9 squad car; in a separate place from the ammunition for his duty weapon.
Tom Lewis, who was Punta Gorda police chief at the time, was charged with culpable negligence and found not guilty in 2017.
The Knowlton family received a $2 million settlement.

Q: How to limit Kinesis Firehose records processed at once I broke my lambda, and have fixed it because I am "smrt".
Now however, the backlog of messages that needed to be processed have reached about 15,000.
I keep getting "Firehose encountered timeout errors when calling AWS Lambda. The maximum supported function timeout is 5 minutes" errors, because my lambda cannot process 15k records in 5 minutes.
How can I make the retry not send so many records at once?

A: The lambda event source has a parameter called Batch size. You should set it to the number of records the lambda can process without timing out.
There is another parameter called "Concurrent batches per shard". This controls how many Lambda instances will be provisioned per shard. This can be set to a max of 10
You need to do some math to determine how many shards you need. So, let's say your Lambda can support 100 records without timing out in 5 minutes. You should set batchSize = 100 If you set ConcurrentBatchesPerShard to 10, this means that you can support 100* 10 = 1K records per 5 minutes. Let's say you are getting 5K records per 5 minutes. Then you need to have 5K/1K = 5 shards in Kinesis stream.

AMP Recommends Improved U.S. Diagnostic Testing Response for COVID-19, Future Disease Outbreaks
Nov 2, 2021 | Covid 19 |
A new viewpoint article from the Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP), a global molecular diagnostic professional society, offers recommendations to improve the United States' ability to respond to the current COVID-19 pandemic and prepare for future emerging infectious disease outbreaks with better diagnostic testing response.
Authored by members of the AMP COVID Response Steering Committee, "The Role of Clinical Laboratories in Emerging Pathogens: Insights from the COVID-19 Pandemic" appears in JAMA Health Forum.
"AMP members have been on the frontlines of this pandemic and have been managing the ever-increasing demand for testing despite numerous regulatory, reimbursement, supply-chain, logistical, and systems challenges," says Karen E. Weck, MD, Previous AMP president, professor of pathology and laboratory medicine, professor of genetics, and director of molecular genetics and pharmacogenomics at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, NC, and corresponding author of the JAMA Health Forum article. "Timely diagnostic and epidemiological testing are foundational to an effective response to any emerging infectious disease. AMP is committed to expanding our leadership role, sharing our expertise, and providing strategic recommendations to improve the U.S. pandemic response and ensure more patients can benefit from timely access to high-quality testing procedures."
Throughout this pandemic, AMP has continuously focused on addressing key issues and enabling clinical laboratories to increase testing capacity and improve diagnostic testing response. The JAMA Health Forum article offers three important recommendations to improve the U.S. response moving forward:
Clinical laboratories in response to the COVID-19 pandemic: Promote better collaboration and communication between public health and clinical laboratories and relevant government agencies in order to more effectively leverage capacities and capabilities to support testing needs.
Government regulation and clinical laboratories during the pandemic: Maintain the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) via the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) program as the regulatory agency responsible for oversight of laboratory-developed testing procedures, enabling clinical laboratories to rapidly develop and deploy high-quality diagnostic tests during a public health emergency.
Supply chains to meet testing demands during the pandemic: Ensure clinical laboratories have a stable chain of supplies and infrastructure to respond optimally to pandemic needs, as well as other critical clinical testing, including for cancer, inherited conditions, and infectious diseases. This will require early and better use of the Defense Production Act or similar support from the federal government.
Since 2009, AMP has been calling for a comprehensive national diagnostic testing response strategy for emerging outbreaks. The AMP COVID Response Steering Committee was formed to help coordinate and communicate the association's continued efforts to address clinical needs and engage key stakeholders.
To help address the numerous regulatory, reimbursement, supply-chain, logistical, and systems challenges, AMP issued seven recommendations to federal, state, and local governments based on the preliminary results from the April and August 2020 surveys of laboratories conducting molecular testing for SARS-CoV-2. According to the association, AMP members are committed to offer their expertise to help inform the Biden administration, guide healthcare providers, and educate the public.
In addition to Weck, the JAMA Health Forum article was co-authored by Eric Q. Konnick, MD, co-chair of the AMP Professional Relations Committee and assistant professor and associate director of the Genetics and Solid Tumor Laboratory at the University of Washington Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology, and Jordan S. Laser, MD, co-chair of the AMP Professional Relations Committee.

Translucent stretch ceiling with LED backlight. "Royal Caribbean" Michael Kors store.
Showroom look amazing! Everyone is so impressed and the team is extremely motivated, and its all thanks to you. The NYCeiling team has done an amazing job and I really enjoyed the whole process.
As a home owner, i constantly face with maintenance, especially cracks and other irregularities on the ceiling. At some point i got tired of spending money on fixing it. I visited my family back at home where i saw stretch ceilings, and decided to do the same here in New York. It turned out to be beautiful and way unusual, the constant problem with cracks on my ceiling disappeared and it was worth the money i spent, remember that i don't need to fix the ceiling at all. My friends liked it a lot as well!
Due to it's glossy surface, my kitchen became even bigger. I'm very glad. Thank you!
Fabric stretch ceiling in bathroom with print "Fire flames"
Bathrooms are quite a conservative sphere of interior design field, and revolutionary ideas are very rare here. That was the point where an open-minded home owner decided to experiment for a change. The change that will take him away from a classic and even boring, to a certain extant, variant.
A bathroom is a water element, an opposition to it - a fire element. A high contrast of colors. Using a printable stretch ceiling with an image of fire I achieved my goal.
My client was satisfied with a designed developed by me; I was happy to have a partnership with NYCeiling, Inc. Their technologies and professionalism helped me to achieve my professional goal - innovation in interior design.
First class service and fast access to the needed information was the reason I chose NYCeiling, Inc.
I can definitely highlight high quality of work and the material. I expected it to be nice and it happened to be amazing. Love my new look. Their price was in my budget. Overall experience was absolutely positive. I will recommend NYCeiling, Inc.
An excellent customer service is worth mentioning. The job was done professionally and project was finished on schedule. The final result exceeded our expectations. Thank you very much.
We heard of a stretch ceiling technology before and learned more of it's advantages in particular for our basement renovation. Eventually, we asked your company to work on our project.
We wanted to raise the ceiling height in the basement where the existing height was really low. The effect was fantastic and did overcome our expectations. It literary expanded the space and changed the ambience of the basement.
NYCeiling proved to be a team of professionals, who did a high quality job and, which was also important for us, right on time.
I looked for a company that works with stretch ceilings and found you on the internet. After i saw your portfolio, I realized that i can trust your professionalism. My project was done on time without delays and of a very high quality.
I am amazed by your job as well as all my family and friends. I hope that your business will deliver to homes not only beauty but also happiness and luck. Thank you!

Review: Ashes of the Earth
By Fran Lewis Last updated Dec 26, 2014
Take a glimpse into the future. Think about your world as it is right now. Trees, markets, stores, technological advances, medical breakthroughs and modern conveniences that everyone takes for granted and rarely gives thanks for.
Imagine in one strike of a match your world goes up in flames and the end result is a total global holocaust. What is left is smoke, ash, soot, burned buildings, pieces of glass and human beings so deformed so ill they can barely survive. Humans exposed to radiation and expelled and exiled not to contaminate others.
Martial law reigns. Those who question are exiled or punished. Those who dare to challenge the government tortured. Imagine a world devoid of flowers, trees, metal, medicines, books and paper to write on and the basic comforts of life. Picture the devastation shown in Japan just this month. Remember the Tsunamis in Hawaii and Korea as the world comes to an end and the result will rock your world and give the reader much pause for thought.
Hadrian Boone is the main character in this book. Often imprisoned on petty charges and beaten, tortured and abused by those in charge he manages to stay afloat using his intelligence, connections and instincts. A founder of the colony and former professor, he hopes to work to rebuild what is left of Carthage. His long time friend Jonah Beck has been secretly working on many projects including a new public works system, medications to heal the sick and a way to bring both the exiles in New Jerusalem and those in Carthage together.
But, what Hadrian learns and what happens to Jonah, will shake their worlds and rock the inner core of what is left of Carthage. Becoming more than a liability to his former friend Governor Buchanan, his often the brunt of many beatings, torturous experiences imposed on him by his one time friend.
Becoming embroiled in the intrigue and the subterfuge of Carthage, learning of the plots and deceit of those in government and in power, just might get him killed. Murders of young men made to look like suicides. His friend Jonah thought to have hanged himself but did he? Any hope of restoring life to its original state and creating a bridge to reach out to the exiles and provide them with food and medicine gone.
Taking him into the underworld of the exiles, unearthing the secrets that lie beneath the walls of a monastery, and uncovering the whereabouts of a ship thought sunk, draws Hadrian and many others into a web so tightly spun they might never survive. The contraband that Hadrian finds buried in a church is startling. A cloud of doubt that hangs over him when dealing with Sergeant Waller and her true reason for shadowing his every move and appearing to help him at times and at others lost and unable to cope. Emily, the head of the hospital faces the death and doom daily dealt to the many brought in who are murdered, maimed and in some cases left for dead. Scouts that go out and never return and people who are hanged just because they are considered expendable or not worth living at least in this world devoid of emotion, caring and anyone who wants civilization to really survive.
This book brings to light many issues that we hope we never have to face. Children forced to do the dangerous dirty work of adults, smugglings, stealing and committing other crimes to stay alive. Pranks played just for fun on the dead. The characters depicted in this novel seem totally devoid of emotions. The vivid descriptions of the deterioration of the world, the disintegration of the human bodies, their minds and spirits are so clearly written you can create you own mental image of the scenes, the characters and what is left of their world.
Sometimes the search for answers brings new questions. As Hadrian Boone reenters the world of those exiled he learns the hidden truth behind his friend's mission and what he was really creating with those in New Jerusalem as the camp was renamed. Appearance are quite deceiving and people are not always who and what you think they are.
Jackals, young children enlisted to work for the smugglers, men who played both sides of the fence and a directory of names that would shed light on the rest. Who was behind the killings? Who would benefit the most from the smuggling and creating deadly drugs that would silence the inquisitive? A Governor who appears to want to find the answers behind the murders but does he? But, when the final showdown comes to play where will his allegiance lie and just how far will he go to get what he wants.
A plot so diabolical, convoluted and intricate no one will saw it coming nor will they see the end result until it's too late. The granaries are full, the food supply plentiful and the government blinded by their own greed. An ending so explosive that the world as they knew it, as you know it will never be the same. Who will win?
Carthage or CARNAGE!

Born in the South Bronx, I grew up with people from many ethnic backgrounds. I learned to play and work with children in my school that came from other countries and different places.
I was always over weight as a child and got picked on a lot by the other children in my class and even my teachers. I found it hard to do many of the sporting activities that my sister and cousins could do. I learned at an early age that kids can be mean and I promised myself that I would never retaliate or do mean things to other kids in return.
When I decided to write my short stories I realized that I had a lot to say about my youth and in both of my books I tell about a ten year old girl named Bertha who learns to deal with real life issues kids face today at home and in school.
As an educator I the New York City Public Schools for over 36 years, I realized just how unique and precious our children are. I was the reading and writing staff developer in my school and the dean. I loved the children and had the respect of my fellow teachers and parents. Teaching children to read was really very rewarding and introducing them to writing and creating their own stories was exciting for the students. I love reading different kinds of books in many different genres. I have started reviewing books of new authors and those that are more established. I love giving them great reviews and saying wonderful things about their writing. I have three Masters Degrees and PD in Supervision and Administration. Currently I am a member of Who's Who is America's Teachers and Who's Who of America's Executives from Cambridge. In addition, she is the author of three children's books and a fourth that has just been published on Alzheimer's Disease in order to honor her mom and help create more awareness for a Cure. The title of my new Alzheimer's book is Memories are Precious: Alzheimer's Journey; Ruth's story. My second Alzheimer's Book is called Sharp As A Tack or Scrambled Eggs Which Describes Your Brain. This book should be out in June 2010. I was the musical director for shows in her school and ran the School's newspaper. I write reviews for authors upon request and for several other sites. You can read some of my reviews on Ezine.com and on ijustfinished.com under the name Gabina.
Other accomplishments:
Radio show talk host: book discussion with Fran Lewis and authors all over the US and the world- how cool is that I get authors that even request a review.
Would love to become an interviewer.
Caregiver and expert on Medicaid and medicare Author of five books and writing number six
The sixth book is based on a true story but will be written as a fictional memoir.
Worked in the same school for 36 years as the reading and writing staff developer I was the dean of discipline and assisted the Principal and AP when needed I was the test coordinator for the school and instructed teachers in testing procedures –administrated the tests and oversaw the reading, math and other tests to make sure that everything ran smoothly.
I am an expert in the ELA or any test prep for reading and writing
I can take an author's book and even if it is not five stars write a five star review for them by looking for the soul of the book and for something positive. I am a member of Who's Who of America's executives, teachers and professionals and belong the Cambridge's Connect and Pen with Sword
I would like to take my three children's book plus the fourth one and put them together in one book. I played the piano as a kid and the violin.
I was in the Bronx Borough Orchestra. I played the piano in Carnegie Hall –that was scary. I do consulting for some of the teachers in my school when they need help with lesson plans. I love writing for Robins Falls Magazine.
I love writing reviews in my own style. I even find time to help my nieces and nephews with their homework over the phone.

* `shadowEnabled`(Boolean): when this prop is true, layer casts and renders shadows

### Example
```js
const ambientLight = new AmbientLight({
  color: [255, 255, 255],
  intensity: 1.0
});

const dirLight0 = new DirectionalLight({
  color: [255, 255, 255],
  intensity: 1.0,
  direction: [10, -20, -30],
  _shadow: true
});

const dirLight1 = new DirectionalLight({
  color: [255, 255, 255],
  intensity: 1.0,
  direction: [-10, -20, -30],
  _shadow: true
});

const lightingEffect = new LightingEffect({
  ambientLight,
  dirLight0,
  dirLight1
});
const deckgl = new Deck({
  canvas: 'my-deck-canvas',
  effects: [lightingEffect],
  layers: [
    // building layer
    new SolidPolygonLayer({
      shadowEnabled: true,
      ...
    }),
    // ground layer
    new SolidPolygonLayer({
      shadowEnabled: true,
      ...
    })
  ]
});
```
### Workflow
* User creates `LightingEffect` instance which adds shadow modules into default shader modules
* `LightingEffect` instance is passed into deck and create shadow passes based on light directions, there is one shadow pass for each directional light, for now totally two lights are supported
* For each shadow pass, layers are rendered to a shadow map
* After all the effects are processed, there is a regular layer rendering pass, shadow maps are used to render the final shadows.

## Limitations
With the current design, the user needs to create `LightingEffect` instance before Deck's initialization, so that the default modules can be modified before layer shaders are assembled.
