HSI and Maryland U.S. Attorney's Office seize 2 domain names attempting to impersonate Walmart website and purporting to sell COVID-19 treatment or prevention drugs
Websites are 12th and 13th seized by HSI and the Maryland U.S. Attorney's Office
by Staff July 23, 2021 July 23, 2021
BALTIMORE – The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Maryland seized fraudulent websites that contained numerous uses of the legitimate Walmart trademarked logo and appearing to mimic a legitimate Walmart website.
The fraudulent websites allegedly offer a number of drugs for sale for the experimental and unapproved treatment or prevention of COVID-19. Instead, the domains were allegedly used to collect the personal information of individuals visiting the sites in order to use their information for nefarious purposes, including fraud, phishing attacks, and/or deployment of malware. Individuals visiting the sites will now see a message that the site has been seized by the federal government. These are the 12th and 13th COVID fraud-related domain names seized by the Maryland U.S. Attorney's Office and Homeland Security Investigations (HSI).
The seizures of the domain names were announced by Acting United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Jonathan F. Lenzner and Special Agent in Charge James R. Mancuso of Homeland Security Investigations Baltimore Field Office."When it comes to cyber fraudsters, dismantling their online platform is as good as destroying their business," said James Mancuso, Special Agent in Charge for HSI Baltimore Field Office. "As soon as HSI identifies a malicious website we work to investigate the crime and pursue a criminal prosecution with the U.S. Attorney's Office. By doing so we are denying these offenders the ability to commit more schemes and exploit more people."
According to the affidavit filed in support of the seizure, the seized sites both purported to be the retail chain Walmart. One site, "http://pharmacywalmart.com," was explicitly named to appear to be Walmart while the other, "https://stromectol-ivermectin.com," would redirect users to "https://en.pharmacywalmart.com/buy-stromectol-usa.html." The HSI Intellectual Property Rights Center and the HSI Cyber Crimes Center discovered the apparent website "https://stromectol-ivermectin.com" which redirected to an internal webpage of "pharmacywalmart.com." A domain analysis conducted by HSI indicated that pharmacywalmart.com was created on November 4, 2019, from a registrant located in Russia.
The HSI Cyber Operations Officer (COO) also noted the phone number "+1-718-475-90-88" on the pharmacywalmart.com website, and while the area code for this number is New York City, the format provided does not match that of a typical United States based phone number. Pharmacywalmart.com purports to offer for sale a number of drugs, including Stromectol (Ivermectin), Aralen (Chloroquine), and Kaletra (Lopinavir and Ritonavir), for the experimental and unapproved treatment or prevention of COVID-19.
As detailed in the affidavit filed in support of the seizure, Stromectol is the brand name of Ivermectin which is a prescription medication used to treat certain parasitic infections; Aralen is a brand name for chloroquine, most commonly used for the treatment and prevention of malaria; and Kaletra is the brand name of a combination of Lopinavir and Ritonavir which are prescription medications that are approved to treat human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1). None of those drugs are an approved preventative or treatment for COVID-19. On the page offering Kaletra for sale, the subject domain name contained the following: "In 2020, after laboratory research, it was found out that Kaletra shows positive results in a blockage of a COVID-19 viral replication." The affidavit alleges that this statement is not supported by trials or the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Neither domain name is authorized by Walmart to use their intellectual property or offer their products for sale. By seizing the sites, the government has prevented third parties from acquiring the names and using them to commit additional crimes, as well as prevented third parties from continuing to access the sites in their present form.
HSI launched Operation Stolen Promise in April 2020 to protect the Homeland from the increasing and evolving threat posed by COVID-19-related fraud and criminal activity. As of May 2021, the agency has seized more than $49 million in illicit proceeds; made 281 arrests; executed over 200 search warrants, and analyzed more than 80,000 COVID-19 related domain names. Working with U.S. Customs and Border Protection, more than 2,100 shipments of mislabeled, fraudulent, unauthorized, or prohibited COVID-19 test kits and other related items have been seized. For its role in the operation, HSI's Cyber Crimes Center applies technological, operational, and criminal investigative expertise, products, and services to target the criminals and organizations attempting to commit cybercrimes and exploitation related to COVID-19.
HSI is a directorate of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the principal investigative arm of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, responsible for investigating transnational crime and threats, specifically those criminal organizations that exploit the global infrastructure through which international trade, travel, and finance move. HSI's workforce of over 10,400 employees consists of more than 7,100 Special Agents assigned to 220 cities throughout the United States, and 80 overseas locations in 53 countries. HSI's international presence represents DHS's largest investigative law enforcement presence abroad and one of the largest international footprints in U.S. law enforcement.
Federal law enforcement agencies are united in our efforts to fight against COVID-19 fraud. HSI has identified tips to recognize and report COVID-19 fraud. If you believe you are a victim of a fraud or attempted fraud involving COVID-19, you may also call the National Center for Disaster Fraud Hotline at 1-866-720-5721, or for more information visit justice.gov/coronavirus.

Reaction to human rights resolution on Cambodia
42nd Session of the UN Human Rights Council
Response to resolution on Cambodia
CIVICUS welcomes the renewal of the mandate of the Special Rapporteur on Cambodia in a resolution which was passed by consensus today. As the country's human rights situation is deteriorating and space for freedom of expression, peaceful assembly and association is decreasing, international scrutiny is more important than ever.
However, the resolution was also a missed opportunity for the Human Rights Council to push for substantive change on the ground. At a time when the human rights situation in the country is regressing, a strong resolution providing for enhanced monitoring and reporting mechanisms would have shown that the Council will not accept sustained violations of fundamental freedoms.
'This resolution does not go far enough towards bringing to account the perpetrators of human rights violations, or to provide a remedy for victims and their families,' said Lisa Majumdar, Advocacy Officer with CIVICUS.
'Cambodia's human rights situation has deteriorated over the past four years and international action so far has been inadequate. This resolution could have an important moment to step up scrutiny of the authorities and show Cambodian human rights defenders that they are not alone. Instead it sends a signal that the Cambodian government can continue to violate rights with impunity', said Lisa Majumdar.
We welcome the acknowledgement in the resolution of the 'chilling effect' over civil society and independent voices following the murder of human rights defender and analyst Dr Kem Ley, although disappointed that the resolution did not name him, and we reiterate calls for a full, independent and transparent investigation into his death. Such a chilling affect has been compounded by repressive laws, misuse of the justice system, online and offline intimidation, and the shutdown of independent media outlets.
However, we are concerned by references in the resolution to Cambodia's 'efforts and progress' in enforcing basic laws such as the criminal code and the criminal procedure code. Not only should this be a baseline standard to meet, but there are multiple cases of Cambodian courts continuing to misuse both laws in order to judicially harass and in some cases imprison human rights defenders, land activists, and opposition supporters. Cambodia's manipulation of the justice system to serve political goals should be the subject of reform, not praise.
The Special Rapporteur on Cambodia presented her latest report to the Council earlier this week. The report detailed the regression in the country's political situation as well as some steps it has taken towards meeting sustainable development goals and outlining recommendations.
We call on the Cambodian government to restore full fundamental freedoms in line with the report's recommendations, and to implement recommendations from its UPR held earlier this year.

Q: Collecting Summary Statistics on Dataframe built by randomly sampling other dataframes My goal is to build a dataframe by randomly sampling from other dataframes, collecting summary statistics on the new dataframe, and then append those statistics to a list. Ideally, I can iterate through this process n number of times (e.g. bootstrap).
dfposlist = [OFdf, Firstdf, Seconddf, Thirddf, CFdf, RFdf, Cdf, SSdf]

OFdf.head()
    playerID    OPW         POS salary
87  bondsba01   62.061290   OF  8541667
785 ramirma02   35.785630   OF  13050000
966 walkela01   30.644305   OF  6050000
859 sheffga01   29.090699   OF  9916667
357 gilesbr02   28.160054   OF  7666666

All the dataframes in the list have the same headers. What I'm trying to do looks something like this:
teamdist = []
for df in dfposlist:
    frames = [df.sample(n=1)]
team = pd.concat(frames)

teamopw = team['OPW'].sum()
teamsal = team['salary'].sum()
teamplayers = team['playerID'].tolist()

teamdic = {'Salary':teamsal, 'OPW':teamopw, 'Players':teamplayers}
teamdist.append(teamdic)

The output I'm looking for is something like this:
teamdist = [{'Salary':4900000, 'OPW':78.452, 'Players':[bondsba01, etc, etc]}]

But for some reason all the sum actions like teamopw = team['OPW'].sum() do not work how I'd like, and just returns the elements in team['OPW']
print(teamopw)
0.17118131814601256
38.10700006434629
1.5699939126695253
32.9068837019903
16.990760776263674
18.22428871113601
13.447706356730897

Any advice on how to get this working? Thanks!
Edit: Working solution as follows. Not sure if it is the most pythonic way, but it works.
teamdist = []
team = pd.concat([df.sample(n=1) for df in dfposlist])

teamopw = team[['OPW']].values.sum()
teamsal = team[['salary']].values.sum()
teamplayers = team['playerID'].tolist()

teamdic = {'Salary':teamsal, 'OPW':teamopw, 'Players':teamplayers}
teamdist.append(teamdic)

A: Here (with random data):
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np

dfposlist = dict(zip(range(10),
                     [pd.DataFrame(np.random.randn(10, 5),
                                   columns=list('abcde'))
                     for i in range(10)]))
for df in dfposlist.values():
    df['f'] = list('qrstuvwxyz')

teamdist = []
team = pd.concat([df.sample(n=1) for df in dfposlist.values()])
print(team.info())

teamdic = team[['a', 'c', 'e']].sum().to_dict()
teamdic['f'] = team['f'].tolist()
teamdist.append(teamdic)
print(teamdist)

# Output:
## team.info():
<class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>
Int64Index: 10 entries, 1 to 6
Data columns (total 6 columns):
a    10 non-null float64

« 6/13/14 Author, Michael S. King-Grasp of New World Order, Russia & More.
We've already started to be in the transition. It's not something where it's going to hit immediately. People are looking at it like they're waiting but the way we look at it metaphysically, when you have an energy shift, it doesn't start one day and end the next. It doesn't go by our calendar. That's man-made.
It usually moves into it and then you go through the transition time and then it takes time to flow out of it. Now we look at the transition time as a time of positive changes where we're moving from one dimension to the dimension we're in now, to the next dimension. So that's why we shift. It's a planetary shift. The reason we go thru a shift is we live on the planet and we're moving with the energy of the planet.
As an example, we have "Dragon Lines", which are also called "Ley Lines" They are grids of energy that go through the earth, through the universe and through us. So sometimes people will notice, for example, if they're near an energy vortex like Sedona. The energy is different there than if you're somewhere else on the planet. So we're dealing with Ley Lines that are energy lines and with portals and shifts.
Sometimes people like to live near a Dragon Line, because they look at it as if a vortex of energy has to be positive. But that's not true. If you think of a vortex of energy, not that it's not positive, but it's overwhelming. If you're actually living on the side of a vortex or very close to it, it's like living on the edge of a hurricane or tornado. It's intense energy. You may want to visit there, but you don't want to live there.
The planetary changes come for two reasons: The planet is set to go in cycles just like you have the sun coming up and it goes down. And you have the moon come up and then that goes down. You have natural planetary changes. Sometimes it takes centuries for it to go through a cycle but it does have natural changes. Then besides that, you have to take a look at the mindset of people on the planet, not just one society. If you have a time where most people on the planet in different countries are in chaos, that's going to affect the energy of the planet. You can throw it off balance. If you have most of the people on the planet being in sync and focusing on positive energy, then of course that will put it into a positive mode. But we can't influence it.
Right now it's going through a chaotic phase. But again, the shift of the planet is natural so it's moving into the next dimension which is going to be positive. If you are in sync with it and you're flowing with the same energy and you're working with it, then it's going to be an easy transition. If somebody is very chaotic and very negative, than they're going to have a harder transition.
The oncoming transition can be called a dimensional shift. But again it's not literally just a year or specific date. It's already started moving towards this shift. And then after, it still takes time to stabilize. It's not an overnight thing. It takes a couple of years before, through it and after. It's a much longer shift.
What the shift creates is a heightening of the abilities we already have, which is positive. It brings out positive abilities in us that we may not have been aware of. As an example, if someone is very negative, it's going to bring out that trait. So, it brings out your basic traits and then you decide how you want to work with them. Whether you want to change it or you're happy with the way you are, it's a good time to start new things. People look at it as an ending, it's not. It's a transition. So, if you want to transition into a new ability, and use it for a new line of work, that's the perfect time.
Certain of your abilities may become more acute and you may decide to take more risks in things. And I find that also working with numerous clients in the business field or private people in the media. I find that in all different fields. You're really looking at where the abilities are; they're being heightened. And the people that are spiritual, it's like they're just flowing through it. They're not having a negative time of it. So, the transition is a little bit easier for them. But it's still a transition.
I'll give you an example of how we manifest that connects to the planet. if you're in the Stone Age, and you have this giant, giant, giant boulder, and your tribe is setup behind the boulder and all of a sudden there's a tornado. And the only reason the tornado doesn't get to you is because you're behind this giant boulder.
So now being that you're in the Stone Age, you're going to think about it, you're going to say, this boulder saved your tribe. So through time you're going to start worshiping the boulder. And as it gets passed down through generations, people don't know why they're worshiping the boulder because they forgot the original tornado.
But now you have these people worshiping the boulder and they're giving it characteristics. So they're worshiping because of protection; it's a positive force of love because it took care of them. It's nurturing because it saved them. So they're looking at all these characteristics that they attribute to the boulder. Even if they forgot why they're doing it, they still remember the characteristics.
From the metaphysical point, through especially generations of worship, you actually create. Thought goes to the astral plane and comes back. What happens is, you're actually creating a deity through the energy of thought being put into this boulder. Centuries later somebody walks by that boulder and they don't know that a society existed worshiping this for hundreds of years. When they walk past that boulder they're liable to see the deity that's connected to it.
So sometimes society will form an energy being, or a deity. Some deities have always been with energy before we were around. But there are some deities that we formed because of our connection with the energies of the planet. You may think, much like the elementals and faeries. And yes, they're real. I will get back to that realm, later.
I teach both because I do both. And the difference is, when you're working psychically, it's very passive. You're client is at one end of the phone; your source of information, or divine power, is at the other end of the phone. When you're working psychically, you're just the wire.
All you're doing is allowing the information to come through you to the person to help them. That's very passive. Metaphysics is the opposite. Metaphysics is understanding the laws of nature to work with them; to create situations. Or to cancel situations. So creating the situation could be your understanding the laws of nature to bring finances to your life. Or to know when to plant. We don't all live in cities, so if you know the cycles of nature, you know when to plant vegetables and when not to.
If you're working with metaphysics, if you're canceling, as an example, if you have a business associate that's extremely negative towards you. What you can do is you can cancel the situation so that they either don't bother you or that they will leave that job for a better job for themselves.
We never hurt anybody. If you're having the person move from that job so they don't bother you, they're going to get a better job. We only do it in a positive way. We work to cancel situations that are negative for us, or to bring in situations that are positive. But again it's because we understand the laws of nature.
So in getting back to nature and to the elementals and the faeries, you may ask, "what exactly are they"? They're spirit beings, energy beings. Sometimes if you're dealing from an intuitive or psychic level, sometimes you'll see little tiny dots of white light around plants. What they're doing is they're nature spirits helping to build the plant and there are other nature spirits that help break down the plant. So they all have different jobs. As an example, most people look at an elf as this little tiny, tiny being because they read all these stories. When you're working with energy beings … I personally find when I work with them that elves tend to be approximately 3 ft. high. We've actually seen them because we work from a psychic point of view.
I have a funny story. I had a friend of mine who came over to clean my house. We were painting one of the rooms and I was trying to get a color that was more like a salmon type of color. We were working on it for two days and on the last wall we were painting.
We ran out of paint and had to get some more. It was in the middle of the night. By 4 in the morning, he was almost done with the one wall. And as he's painting, I turn around and I notice that whenever the paint roller comes down to about 3 ft. off the ground, he's making like this little semi-circle and going back up.
He was seeing the energy of him. My painter friend works with the Asian form of exercise for body and mind called Tai Chi, so he's used to working with energy. But it was funny because I was watching him as he was bringing the roller down, making semi-circles as if over somebody's head, then he'd start going up and he'd looking really annoyed.
And elemental spirits can look different in different regions of the country. They relate to the earth that they're connected to geographically. Nature spirits are both positive and negative. It depends on what you're working with. People always think that nature spirits are always supportive. But they are positive or negative, and then you have pranksters. And we can work with them because all nature is connected.
I'm a European Shaman. We have totems, we have animals we're connected to. One of the reasons we have the animal connection is because when you look at the totem and at the animal that is your totem, you find you have the same traits. If you want to you can actually use those traits or not.
A shaman is a religious leader. Think of it as a tribe, though we're in a broader society now. It would be a spiritual leader, a religious leader, a healer, a counselor, and it's somebody who does magic. You know, occult. They would protect the tribe. They would look into the psychic realm – if the tribe was on the move…in Hungary, by the way, it started out as a nomadic tribe. When the tribe was on the move, you had to go to the shaman and say, is it safe to move east, west, north, south? Is it a good time to move now because what if the weather was going to change drastically.
A shaman was basically a spiritual leader, a healer, a psychic, an occultist, or metaphysician, and a counselor. Basically that's who they go to.
You may wonder if I come from a line of shamans in my family or how I became a shaman. Many people in my family through generations have been psychic. It's on both sides of my family. Because of the psychic abilities, I found through time that when I really focus on something, eventually it comes true. Then I got into herbs and oils, and then I find because I tend to be very focused, I just attract the information I need to know.
So I would run into people that are shamans. I would run into people who were into martial arts, healers, all different types of people every time I needed information. Then through time you develop your own system. I looked into the ancient knowledge because that's where my interest lies.
When I was just 6 I discovered my abilities so it had already been my path. We have free will and I could've chosen not to work with it. It didn't mean I had to. I really feel that the more people I can help, the more I'm helping society and down the line, the planet. It's more of a calling rather than a job to me. If I wasn't doing this for a living, I would still be doing it because it's a way of life. It's not a job.
When I was in grade school, I remember there was a thunder storm and I wanted to go home, and I remember saying that it really needs to stop so that I can get home. All of a sudden it just stopped; I got home and it started again. When you're little, it doesn't occur to you that you can't work with it. Because of that, I started saying, oh, maybe I can do this, and maybe I can do that.
And the more I did it and the more it hit, the more I started to look into why does it work, how does it work, what am I doing? Originally, I wasn't doing it consciously (where you actaully create a "formula"). And you really need to do both (psychically and metaphysically). And from the psychic and metaphysical point of view, when you're talking to people normally, your brainwave is on a beta frequency. When you're working psychically, or metaphysically, your brain wave will actually shift up to alpha or theta.
We're actually working in tune with the energies of the planet and situations around us. One of the things that I find when you are working very intensely for a long time dealing with psychic and metaphysical abilities, you get very strange fallout. As an example, I was constantly working psychically and metaphysically at the same time literally for months. It was on a very intense level. I was alone in the house, and all of a sudden I heard this very loud male voice saying: "You are the lightening, not the thunder." It was perfectly clear. And I turned around and went – "OK, there's nobody there".
Now you may think with this idea that we are the cause and not the effect – You may ask, "aren't our creations also the effect of what we create?" Basically you're working metaphysically; you're working with nature to create situations. So you're the cause of creating. But when you're creating the situations it's still within always the boundaries of nature. The point is not to create something that you didn't plan on creating. You're doing it on purpose.
In the science lab, you're mixing two ingredients together because of a specific affect. If two ingredients always have the same effect than you know to repeat it to get the effect you want. But you're causing the two to blend to create the third situation. It doesn't mean in everything in life, it means metaphysically. If you decide to create a new job, then you put all the ingredients together that will attract that to you because you're changing your vibration a little bit to be more magnetized for that. You're putting out for the new job to come in. So when it comes in you're not going to go: "Oh, how did that happen?" You were working on it. The only thing that you can go is: "I should've been more specific. I got a job opportunity in a field that I don't do." So you need to be a little more focused for that.
The whole idea is that you have to become more conscious of what you are creating so that you can fine tune what you finally want to manifest. We create things all the time we're not conscious of. There is a popular cartoon in magazines where this little old lady is looking under the bed all the time to see if anybody's there hiding. In real life if somebody did that and if they were paranoid about it long enough, somebody's going to be there.
So it doesn't always mean we're consciously creating. As an example, if you have a pattern in your life that you notice something's always going wrong, or something's always going right, you can kind of step back and say, "what am I doing to create the pattern?" It's a little bit more involved, but there's something in there that's either teaching you a lesson or you're teaching somebody else a lesson. It can also be something that harps back to a past life situation. But, the quicker you figure it out, the better it can work.
There's a phrase called "Metaphysically Arranged"; basically it means that you use visualization or some other method to receive or bring something specific. Somebody who is a Metaphysician is somebody who studies, understands, and practices the laws of nature. It's a science.
But it's a science of being and growing. "Meta" basically means higher or beyond. When they coined that phrase, what they refer to is something that is higher or beyond this physics. Or it's called "Invisible Physics". But what you have to remember is Occult has always been here. Just the terminology "Metaphysics" is a newer term. It still says the same thing. It's just an updated version. But it literally means, "beyond earth physics".
And then, of course, it has all sorts of philosophical doctrine. They're all part of the main (spiritual) source, whatever you want to call that. Actually, if you look at Physics today, it goea back to ancient Metaphysics. If you look at chemistry, it actually came out of Alchemy. Alchemy (turning one substance into another) is one of the oldest sciences. That's why I deal with ancient methods and I deal with my own because I've been doing this most of my life.
And I've always been in tune but I've been doing this most of my life. It's a way of life with me. My oldest son, Rick works with the psychic field. And the same for my other son, Rob. They both live with it in different ways. My oldest son, Rick, uses it for healing and readings besides his regular job because he's an engineer. With Rob, he's a business man, and he uses it more from a business point of view. They just work it differently, but it does tend to be in my family. My mother doesn't deal with the psychic field but she deals with herbs for natural healing. Most Europeans go to an herb rather than an aspirin. So she understands herbs more.
When you look at the title of any herb that has Bane at the end, that word means "poison". If it's Wolf's Bane than that herb will poison a wolf. If an herb is called Hen Bane, and there is an herb called that, if a hen accidentally ate that herb, it would be poisoned. So, that's where they got it from. It's very ancient and this is the knowledge my mother uses.
My family is a good example of the many practical ways you can study and apply metaphysics and intuitive abilities to enhance your everyday life.

When it comes to men's shopping in Oklahoma City, there is a new standard of excellence. That standard is TRADE Men's Wares, a new locally-owned pop-up shop featuring fine goods for men. Located at 822 N Broadway in Automobile Alley, this pop-up shop is not like the rest.
Being the first of it's kind in OKC meant that owners Lukus Collins, Hunter Goodman and Ellie Collins left nothing to chance.
Unlike other men's retailers in OKC, TRADE does not carry suits, and they do not carry sportswear. Their focus is on casual wear and accessories that are timeless, masculine, comfortable, but also refined.
"We offer high-quality casual apparel, accessories, grooming products, and various gifts and gadgetry for men that can't be found anywhere else in the state of Oklahoma," Collins said.
Since the grand opening in the November, TRADE has not only become a destination for every gentlemen's refined taste, but has also become a place for community.
"But beyond the merchandise, we also want to create a unique atmosphere that embraces masculinity – where men can not only shop, but build a community and rediscover some of the manly arts that have been lost," Collins said.
When it comes to the perfect combination of style and community, TRADE offers a premiere experience; however, their pop-up shop will only be here for the season.
"We're going to be open every day from December 19th through Christmas Eve, and the weekend after Christmas will be our last until our full-scale launch this spring," Collins explained.
Holiday hours are availble on the TRADE blog at trademenswares.com. But if you can't wait for in-store hours, merchandise is avaible for shopping anytime at their on-line store. There's no excuse OKC, whether you are a looking to polish off your look or searching for a unique gift for the quenticental rustic gentlemen, TRADE has it.


Is it possible to man-oeuvre oneself through a gory scene like this and maintain a modicum of style? Yes, it is.
At the time of writing this story, Toronto has recently acquired yet another dumping of snow. Fifty cms over the past five days and there is more to come. And it's cold. But not cold enough to eliminate plenty of shoe-destroying slush. Under these conditions, how in the world can one maintain a modicum of style and also stay warm and dry?
We caught up with the three chic, Canadian women who maintain you don't have spend the wintery months looking like an unkempt frump.
Q: It's pretty cold here, eh? How do you deal with the Canadian winter?
KM: I have to admit that my attire gets quite a bit more casual in the winter months. Through the fall, I pick up a few items to wear at the art fairs and I just make them last through the winter.
ALD: It's all about layering! And thank goodness it's an important trend this season. Put a long sleeve T-Shirt under a pretty blouse and top it off with a great knit. And Canada is known for super warm outerwear like Canada Goose coats and Sorel boots. Why not embrace the snow bunny look? You'll be much happier if you're warm.
DW: To survive Canadian winter fashionably, everyone's got to have a great coat, hat and mittens. The coat has got to be warm. Mine's thick wool and it's black so I can wear it everywhere. The Canadian winter is tough and you have to wear sensible boots. That doesn't mean they have to be Ugg-ly though. I think it's totally possible to be stylish while staying warm. Call it your "winter look".
Q: Do you have a secret to combating hat hair?
KM: Wear a ponytail or keep the hat on. Just let it be, hat head, like bed head, can be super cute.
ALD: I don't spend a lot of time on my hair, so it's often a few runs through with this great Conair curler and hairdryer I found or a ponytail.
DW: I have straight hair, so I just jive with the flat-hair look. Combat hat hair by smoothing down your hair as you put on your hat. Don't wear a hat that's too tight. It'll allow your head to breathe and your hat won't get overly flattened.
Q: What are some of your pet peeves when it comes to dressing up for winter?
KM: Static cling and not being warm enough without a sweater. I'm not a big sweater fan.
ALD: All the bits and pieces drive me crazy and I'm always afraid I'll leave my gloves or hat somewhere and inevitably I do.
DW: Hot feet and static cling. I wear warm winter boots or double up on socks and my feet are always hot. Clothes that cling in the wrong way are awful.
Q: What are you likely to wear and what do you try to get across by the way you dress?
KM: I like dresses, tights, boots, or longer tops and jeans. I think my attire is really about saying where I'm at in my life. I'm 43, an art dealer, a mother and I live in Canada. I also travel a lot. Being in the arts, I feel like I can be a bit more experimental with the way I dress. I can be fancy when I want to, or not at all. It all depends on the work that I'm doing at the moment.
ALD: My work is in the creative field so we don't have a strict dress code. I often wear a dress or jeans and a nice blouse. For winter, it's all about layering and I'll throw on a long sleeve tee and thick tights under a lighter dress. After work, it's much of the same with higher heels and a few more accessories like bangles, a scarf or a fun necklace. I like to look put-together, but in a relaxed way.
DW: I almost never change between work and going out after work. Lately, I've been wearing a lot of jeans (because it's winter) paired with a fine wool sweater or a shirt and blazer. I try not to look too professional, and never wear anything that resembles a suit. I feel too young to look that serious. I usually look neat and put-together, but a bit off-beat.
Q: How would you describe your personal style?
KM: I think I'm a bit of a tomboy. For example, I have a real hard time with heels and make-up. I like things that look cool, but a lot of the time I'm a little too busy to care about fashion, so a sort of rock 'n roll, disheveled thing with touches of femininity works pretty well with me. I do better in the summer, when I don't have to wear so much.
ALD: My style is pretty classic, but I incorporate a few trends into each look in a small way. I'm all about building a wardrobe of well-fitting, timeless pieces and accessorizing to bring in the season's fashion messages. I definitely follow the international trends.
DW: I've been told I look "funny", which is probably a good description for the days I look like I'm half wearing a costume. Sometimes, the way I put myself together is reminiscent of the circus or military. Most of the time I look put-together, but a bit off-beat. I love to layer. I'm also influenced by "not taking myself too seriously".
Q: What are some of the key pieces you can't imagine living without?
KM: Boots, dresses and knee-high socks: That's my look. I also have some pretty ratty T-Shirts that look best just before they die. They have holes and thin spots in the right places. I've often been asked who designed them. The answer would be that they kind of designed themselves.
ALD: Denim! I live in a great pair of jeans. And I have a favorite vintage black velvet blazer that always looks chic for the evening. And shoes, you can never have too many pairs of shoes.
DW: I love my Isabel Marant frock. It's light gray, raw wool and drapes really well. I look like a clown when I wear my elephant-colored leather jacket (another essential) with it. And my Ernesto faded-black cigarette jeans are awesome. They're really called Ernest Sewn, but I misheard the name and I think Ernesto is funny.
Q: What was the last fashion item you splurged on?
KM: A gold Ralph Lauren bag that I bought in New York. My 13-year-old son convinced me to buy it because I deserved it. It was half price but still an investment for me.
ALD: I recently splurged on four pairs of shoes & boots, but they were on sale so the damage wasn't too bad. I shop at every level, a little designer, some great mid-point classics, a lot of mass to satisfy my shopping fix and I love vintage.
DW: I think the last thing was a pair of jeans. They are Seven Jeans. They are expensive for jeans. I don't splurge frequently.
Q: Who are some of your favorite designers?
KM: I don't really wear designer clothes but Prada ads in fashion magazines always excite me. And I buy way too many things at H&M.
ALD: Right now, it's Lanvin, Balenciaga, and Nina Ricci. They all have new designers revitalizing historic brands with beautifully dramatic results.
DW: Locally, my favorite clothing designers are Zoran Dobric, Lydia K and Philip Sparks. Philip doesn't produce a women's line, but I love his military-inspired pieces, and I think Lydia K isn't making clothes anymore, but I love her "Frida Kahlo transplanted to the Victorian age" feel. Not locally and not for fashion, Rem Koolhaas and Marcel Wanders for architecture and industrial design, respectively. Although they don't make clothing, they inspire a way of thinking that I feel is an overall way for thinking about life, even when getting dressed in the morning.
Q: Who are your style icons?
KM: I like Kate Moss. Her popularity started when grunge was in. And she's still around, with this timeless beauty and she looks good in anything. I've also always thought that the Canadian artist Shary Boyle pulls off fashion really well, mixing vintage and new and not caring sometimes.
ALD: I love timeless beauties like Audrey Hepburn, Jackie O. and Grace Kelly. I especially enjoyed Ali McGraw's' style in Love Story, Jean Seberg in Breathless and Faye Dunaway in Bonnie and Clyde. And I like the eclectic street-style of some of today's party girls like Kate Moss and Sienna Miller.
DW: I love Bjork style.
Q: What style advice do you always live by?
KM: Style comes from within. Clothes can be fun but I think that you can be creative with very little investment.
ALD: Dress in what suits you and what you are comfortable in. Invest in classics, but have fun with trends.
DW: Dress your age and for your body-type. That doesn't mean not having fun. There are just parts that need to be gradually covered up or treated in a modest way as your body starts to defy you. Short shorts are not everyone's friend. Think about it.

Argentina hero Lionel Messi celebrates wildly after scoring World Cup screamer vs Mexico
By dailysunpost_1rcpnd November 26, 2022 Sport No Comments3 Mins Read
Lionel Messi sparked wild celebrations after he scored Argentina's opening goal in their 2-0 World Cup win against Mexico. The South Americans needed to win the Group D clash to give themselves the best chance of progressing to the knockout stages and their talisman got them on their way.
Argentina were struggling to impress against Mexico despite needing to win the game to get their World Cup back on track after their defeat to Saudi Arabia in their opening game. La Albiceleste looked as if they might struggle to break the deadlock leaving their chances of reaching the last 16 in tatters.
However, Messi stepped up just when they needed it to power home a shot from the edge of the box to spark wild scenes in the Argentine support. The 35-year-old ran arms outstretched towards his adoring fans as they revelled in his success.
Messi's goal was praised by BBC pundit Chris Sutton with the former Blackburn striker describing it as a moment of brilliance.
"We've been waiting a long, long time for that moment of magic – and guess who delivers?" Sutton told Radio 5 Live.
JUST IN: Man Utd target Adrien Rabiot drops future hint following failed move
"It's a brilliant goal. You've got to say that Argentina haven't looked like scoring. It was going to be a moment of brilliance. Messi just hangs out, 30 yards from goal, when the ball's fed to him.
"He has time and space, takes a lovely left-footed touch to move the ball across his body and, with his second touch, hammers the ball on the bounce into the corner. No chance for the goalkeeper. Messi makes his mark."
Argentina made five changes for the match but it did not make much of a difference early doors as they struggled to break down their Mexican opponents. Messi had also struggled to get into the game and was criticised by Roy Keane, Gary Neville and Joe Cole in the ITV studio at half-time.
However, Messi made them eat their words after the break as he took the game by the scruff of the neck to open the scoring in the 64th minute. His strike was later followed up by another by Enzo Fernandez in the 87th minute with the football superstar laying on the assist for his team mate.

The 2-0 victory breathed new life into Argentina's World Cup hopes with a win in the final group match against Poland now enough to ensure qualification to the next round.
Their opponents now face an uphill battle after failing to win either of the first two matches at a World Cup for the first time since 1978. They will now have to beat Saudi Arabia in their final group match and hope other results go their way.

Omaha radius of Downtown Omaha, the city's center.
Today, Omaha is the home to the headquarters of four Fortune 500 companies: mega-conglomerate Berkshire Hathaway; one of the world's largest construction companies, Kiewit Corporation; insurance and financial firm Mutual of Omaha; and the United States' largest railroad operator, Union Pacific Corporation. Berkshire Hathaway is headed by local investor Warren Buffett, one of the richest people in the world, according to a decade's worth of Forbes Magazine rankings, some of which have ranked him as high as No. 1. Omaha is also the home to five Fortune 1000 headquarters: Green Plains Renewable Energy, TD Ameritrade, Valmont Industries, Werner Enterprises, and West Corporation. Also headquartered in Omaha are First National Bank of Omaha, the largest privately held bank in the United States; three of the nation's largest 10 architecture/engineering firms: DLR Group, HDR, Inc., and Leo A Daly; the Gallup Organization, of Gallup Poll fame; and its riverfront Gallup University. Enron began in Omaha as Northern Natural Gas in 1930, before taking over a smaller Houston company in 1985 to form InterNorth, which Kenneth Lay moved permanently to Houston, in 1987.
Notable modern Omaha inventions include: the bobby pin and the "pink hair curler", at Omaha's Tip Top; Butter Brickle Ice Cream and the Reuben sandwich, conceived by a chef at the then-Blackstone Hotel on 36th and Farnam Streets; cake mix, developed by Duncan Hines, then a division of Omaha's Nebraska Consolidated Mills, the forerunner to today's ConAgra Foods; center-pivot irrigation by the Omaha company now known as Valmont Corporation; Raisin Bran, developed by Omaha's Skinner Macaroni Co.; the ski lift, in 1936, by Omaha's Union Pacific Corp; the "Top 40" radio format, pioneered by Todd Storz, scion of Omaha's Storz Brewing Co., and head of Storz Broadcasting, which was the first in the U.S. to use the "Top 40" format at Omaha's KOWH Radio; and the TV dinner, developed by Omaha's Carl Swanson Co.
Omaha is located at 41°15′N96°0′W. According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 130.58 square miles, of which 127.09 square miles is land and 3.49 square miles is water. Situated in the Midwestern United States on the bank of the Missouri River in eastern Nebraska, much of Omaha is built in the Missouri River Valley. Other significant bodies of water in the Omaha-Council Bluffs metropolitan area include Lake Manawa, Papillion Creek, Carter Lake, Platte River and the Glenn Cunningham Lake. The city's land has been altered considerably with substantial land grading throughout Downtown Omaha and scattered across the city. East Omaha sits on a flood plain west of the Missouri River. The area is the location of Carter Lake, an oxbow lake. The lake was once the site of East Omaha Island and Florence Lake, which dried up in the 1920s.
As of the census of 2010, there were 408,958 people, 162,627 households, and 96,477 families residing in the city. The population density was 3,217.9 inhabitants per square mile. There were 177,518 housing units at an average density of 1,396.8 per square mile. The racial makeup of the city was 73.1% White, 13.7% African American, 0.8% Native American, 2.4% Asian, 0.1% Pacific Islander, 6.9% from other races, and 3.0% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino people of any race were 13.1% of the population. Non-Hispanic Whites were 68.0% of the population.

Brandon Flowers debuts new song 'Still Want You'
Brandon Flowers has unveiled another track from his upcoming album titled 'Still Want You'.

In 2006 when the Hamilton Waterfront Trail Extension (Pier 4 to Catharine Street) was opened, the Hamilton Waterfront Trust sponsored visual artwork by elementary and secondary students in Hamilton. Over 35 murals were created and mounted on the Hamilton Port Authority warehouses on Pier 8.
Since then the Hamilton Waterfront Trust in partnership with the Hamilton Port Authority and the City of Hamilton, continued this program in order to provide opportunity for students in Hamilton to showcase their artistic abilities. We have received an additional 90 murals since 2006 that have been mounted to the warehouses and fencing on Pier 8.


There's a good chance music writer Jesse Jarnow knows more about the Grateful Dead than you ever will. Understandably, he did get a head start when he was in middle school. Since then he's been on a slippery slope that would eventually lead to writing extensively about the iconic jam band. He's penned liner notes for Dave's Picks, the archive series of classic Dead shows; compiled the entire setlist repertoire for the band's 80 disc concert box set, 30 Trips Around the Sun and has a forthcoming book that explores the Dead community entitled Heads: A Biography of Psychedelic America, coming out in March. He's also the DJ of the Frow Show on freeform radio station WFMU...where, of course, he manages to squeeze in some Dead music.

PRIENE & MILETUS & DIDYMA
A WONDERFUL JOURNEY to ANCIENT TIMES
Your private guide will meet you at the exit of the Kusadasi Cruise Pier at 8 am for departure for your private full day sightseeing tour.
Today, you will drive south from Kusadasi to Priene. The city is not especially large, but has an unusual intimacy and charm, in part because so many private houses have survived. All the monuments they will see date from the Hellenistic period (that is to say, between the death of Alexander and the coming of Rome) and all of them are aligned according to a strict grid-plan of the kind perfected by Hippodamos a native of neighboring Miletus. They include a Temple of Zeus, a council chamber, and a small theatre. But Priene's greatest treasure is its Temple of Athena, which was considered the masterpiece of the architect Pytheos who also designed the Mausoleum at Halicarnassos (Bodrum).
You will next cross the broad flood-plain of the River Maeander (Turkish Buyuk Menderes) to Miletus. This was once a major port but silt brought down by the River Maeander blocked its harbor centuries ago, and it is now several miles from the sea. The city is laid out according to a grid-plan designed by Hippodamos, which centers on three spacious agoras, but perhaps the most striking features of the site today are the Baths of Faustina and the massive Roman theatre. Due to the silting of its harbor, Miletus inevitably declined, but it seems to have enjoyed something of a revival in the 14th and early 15th centuries when the Mentese emirs of Milas built the Mosque of Ilyas Bey on the site. With its polychrome stonework and delicate relief carving, this is one of the loveliest buildings in Western Turkey.
A paved Sacred Way led from Miletus to Didyma. This was not a true city but rather a sacred precinct centering on a colossal Temple of Apollo that was surrounded by a double colonnade of no less than 108 columns. Work on the temple continued for 500 years, but its design was so ambitious that, when work was abandoned in the 4th century AD, it was still unfinished. But even unfinished and ruined, the temple at Didyma remains one of the most awe-inspiring monuments to be found anywhere around the Eastern Mediterranean.
At the end of the tour, you will be transferred back to Cruise Ship by 5 pm.

Fund manager Capital Group ups stake in Wynn Macau Ltd
Jan 21, 2022 Newsdesk Latest News, Macau, Top of the deck
United States-based Capital Group Companies Inc has spent about HKD33.4 million (US$4.29 million) to acquire 4,578,800 shares in Hong Kong-listed Macau casino firm Wynn Macau Ltd.
The exercise, completed on Tuesday at an average price of HKD7.3010 per share, takes Capital Group's long position in Wynn Macau Ltd to 6.05 percent from 5.96 percent, but its holding is still less than it was in late September.
Investment management firm Capital Group had more than US$2.4 trillion under management as of the end of 2020, according to its website.
Wynn Macau Ltd controls the Wynn Macau gaming resort (pictured) on Macau peninsula, and Wynn Palace in the city's Cotai district. The firm's parent is U.S.-based Wynn Resorts Ltd.
In late September – after the issuance of a Macau government consultation paper on the future of the city's gaming industry had coincided with Macau gaming firm stock prices tumbling – Capital Group had reduced its stake in Wynn Macau Ltd from 7.20 percent.
Wynn Macau Ltd's stock price had risen by 11.91 percent on Monday trading in Hong Kong as part of a general rally of Macau gaming stocks quoted there. The Macau government had announced after market close the previous Friday (January 14), the outline of Macau's draft bill to provide a new regulatory framework for the city's casino industry.
The current six concessions, including that held by an associate firm of Wynn Macau Ltd, are due to expire on June 26 this year, and the city's government has said the new law must be in place before a fresh public tender for gaming concessions can be held.
Moody's Investors Service Inc stated in a Wednesday report that the draft bill – tabled on Tuesday via the website of Macau's Legislative Assembly, and due to have a first reading and first vote in the assembly on Monday (January 24) – "removes significant regulatory uncertainties".
The credit ratings institution said pluses included that the bill specified there would be no more than six concessions under a fresh issuance of gaming rights. Moody's thought that probably meant the existing concession holders would be allowed to stay in the market.

Much more must be done to combat invasive species
The spread of invasive species is one of the greatest threats to the island's environment, economy, public health and way of life. The island's efforts to control and eradicate the invasive rhino beetle shows just how vulnerable our island is to invasive threat.
Guam's war against the coconut rhinoceros beetles, which have ravaged many coconut trees, has become more challenging. At stake in the battle against the beetles is the survival of the remaining coconut trees on the island, which aren't just a source of food. They're also a vital part of Guam's image as a tropical island.
Recently, some local weavers said if the coconut rhino beetles continue their path of destruction, the art of weaving on Guam could disappear.
Local weavers already are having a difficult time getting leaves for weaving. Rose San Nicolas, who weaves at the cultural village GefPa'go in Inarajan, said she's lucky if she looks at 10 trees and finds one that has useable leaves.
More must be done to fight the spread of the rhino beetle and other invasive species. The government of Guam has failed to fully implement Public Law 31-43, meant to bolster the fight against invasive species.
The law established the Guam Invasive Species Council, authorized a biosecurity division at the Department of Agriculture and identified funding, through a fee, meant to combat the threat of invasive species.
While the council meets, the government hasn't established the biosecurity division. And it still hasn't implemented the fee, which would generate local matching money for federal funds to fight invasive species — up to $1.8 million in annual funding.
Invasive species are a threat to the island's environment, economy, public health and way of life. Elected officials and the government must act with urgency to fully implement the law and build the capacity for the island to control and eradicate invasive species.
