Federal religious freedom panel 'appalled' at Biden admin for removing Nigeria from watchlist
RIGHT BIAS
The top federal religious freedom advisory panel on Wednesday condemned the Biden administration for removing Nigeria from the U.S. State Department's list of countries of particular concern (CPC).
The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF), which is a federal government commission created by the International Religious Freedom Act of 1998, consists of commissioners who are appointed by the president and a bipartisan group of congressional leaders.

"USCIRF is disappointed that the State Department did not adopt our recommendations in designating the countries that are the worst violators of religious freedom," said USCIRF Chair Nadine Maenza in a press release. She said the panel was "appalled."
"While the State Department took steps forward on some designations, USCIRF is especially displeased with the removal of Nigeria from its CPC designation, where it was rightfully placed last year, as well as the omission of India, Syria, and Vietnam. We urge the State Department to reconsider its designations based on facts presented in its own reporting."

On Wednesday, the State Department released its countries of particular concern, which is a list of nations that are considered to have participated in or tolerated "systemic, ongoing, and egregious violations of religious freedom." Such a designation potentially carries sanctions or other punitive consequences.
Nigeria, which is a hub of Boko Haram where approximately 43,000 Christians have reportedly been killed by Islamic terrorists in the past 12 years, was added to the list during the Trump administration but left off this year.
Religious freedom advocacy group International Christian Concern (ICC) identified Nigeria as one of its 2021 "Persecutors of the Year" in a recent report.
ICC President Jeff King said he is "troubled" by Nigeria's omission as a CPC.

"The Nigerian government has done almost nothing to stop the violence against Nigerian Christians, leading to continued violent persecution," King said in a statement. "In some instances, as with Kaduna's Governor El-Rufai, the Nigerian government has even furthered the violence. We will continue to raise the voices of the many victims of Nigeria with the U.S. government and will continue to serve Nigeria's Christian community."
King's sentiments were echoed by Open Doors USA CEO David Curry, who said Wednesday that his organization was "deeply alarmed" by the State Department's decision.
"This is not only a baffling error, it's likely in direct violation of the International Religious Freedom Act, the law that requires these designations to be made in the first place," Curry said, going on to note how his organization has documented thousands of targeted killings of Christians in Nigeria for more than a decade.
"In no other country on earth do we see such a sustained level of outright violence directed towards a Christian community, and the situation has only deteriorated over the past 12 months," Curry said. "The Nigerian government has stubbornly refused to address this violence. The removal of Nigeria from this list will embolden bad actors and strongly deter efforts to bring peace to the region."
Sam Brownback, who became a senior fellow at Open Doors USA after serving as the U.S. ambassador at large for international religious freedom under former President Trump, also denounced dropping Nigeria from the list.
"The sudden removal of Nigeria from the CPC list is a serious blow to religious freedom in both Nigeria and across the region," Brownback said. "Just when we should be doing everything possible to stop the relentless violence that's targeting Christians and others, we do the opposite.
"This rewards the Nigerian government for tolerating severe religious freedom violations and sends a message to extremists that their actions will continue to go unpunished. People of faith in Nigeria will bear the fallout of this decision, and that's unacceptable," Brownback added.
The State Department did not respond to an after-hours request for comment in time for publication.

James Mattis Denounces President Trump, Describes Him as a Threat to the Constitution
James Mattis, the esteemed Marine general who resigned as secretary of defense in December 2018 to protest Donald Trump's Syria policy, has, ever since, kept studiously silent about Trump's performance as president. But he has now broken his silence, writing an extraordinary broadside in which he denounces the president for dividing the nation, and accuses him of ordering the U.S. military to violate the constitutional rights of American citizens.
"I have watched this week's unfolding events, angry and appalled," Mattis writes. "The words 'Equal Justice Under Law' are carved in the pediment of the United States Supreme Court. This is precisely what protesters are rightly demanding. It is a wholesome and unifying demand—one that all of us should be able to get behind. We must not be distracted by a small number of lawbreakers. The protests are defined by tens of thousands of people of conscience who are insisting that we live up to our values—our values as people and our values as a nation." He goes on, "We must reject and hold accountable those in office who would make a mockery of our Constitution."

South Siesta Key shoreline damaged by Hurricane Hermine in 2017 to be restored in late fall 2024 through truck haul of sand from inland mine, County Commission agrees
By Rachel Brown Hackney
SarasotaNewsLeader.com
If all goes as planned, in a little more than four years, residents on the southern portion of Siesta Key will be seeing trucks hauling sand to the shoreline to fill in areas eroded by a hurricane in the late summer of 2017.
On June 3, the Sarasota County Commission unanimously authorized such an initiative, with most of the funding to come from the federal government.
A June 3 staff memo did point out that the undertaking "will result in disruption of the Turtle Beach Park for a period of about a month in the November-December 2024 timeframe."
Not long after Sarasota County completed its second renourishment of the south Siesta Key shoreline, Hurricane Hermine swept through the area, chewing away chunks of that new sand, Rachel Herman, manager of the county's Environmental Protection Division, pointed out to the County Commission on June 3.
As a result, a "scalloping" effect is visible in aerial photos of the project area, which includes both Turtle Beach Park and Turtle Beach Campground and extends south to Palmer Point Park, Herman said; she showed the board members slides to illustrate her comments.
The truck haul project was proposed because the mobilization expense to pursue offshore dredging of the estimated 92,505 cubic yards of sand "is considered to be unreasonable," compared to the cost of equipment mobilization for a full renourishment project, a county document in the June 3 agenda packet explained.
"Turtle Beach was last re-nourished to its full template beach design between March 9, 2016 and April 26, 2016," the document noted.
The first nourishment of the shoreline was completed in 2006, Herman noted.
In 2016, about 2.1 miles of shoreline was restored with sand from three borrow areas that were approximately 8 to 10 miles offshore, a county document said. The total quantity of new sand was 713,563 cubic yards.
Then, between Aug. 31, 2016 and Sept. 11, 2016, the document added, "Hurricane Hermine generated hurricane strength storm water surges, wave action and destructive currents, which caused beach erosion damage in Sarasota County … A major disaster … was declared on September 28, 2016."
On Dec. 28, 2017, Herman told the commissioners, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) awarded the county a grant to replace sand lost to the storm.
In March 2017, Herman told the commissioners, FEMA staff originally decided to defer the repair of the Hermine damage until the county's next planned South Siesta Key Beach Renourishment Project, which was set for 2026. Herman said FEMA more recently proposed the truck-haul project as an interim measure to restore the shoreline. That way, she pointed out, the agency could go ahead and reimburse the county and close out the paperwork on the initiative.
A June 3 staff memo explained that the Florida Division of Emergency Management (FDEM), "the pass-through state agency," granted a time extension until Sept. 28, 2020, for the allocation of the FEMA funds. That was the longest the state agency could wait, based on the authority it has, the memo added. "This was done with the understanding that a second Time Extension would be required to defer the project until the estimated timeframe of the next planned nourishment in 2026."
After staff filed the second time extension request, the memo continued, "FDEM and FEMA notified staff via email and then a conference call in November 2019 that, instead of deferring storm damage repair until 2026, Sarasota County should consider an interim project using sand transported by dump trucks from an inland sand mine …"
The estimated cost of the South Siesta project would be $6,300,300, Herman noted during her June 3 presentation. The county would be responsible for 12.5% of the total, which is expected to be $787,537, according to another slide she showed the commissioners.
If the county went ahead and pursued the truck haul project, Herman explained, that could delay the next overall restoration of the area to 2028 and give the county's beach renourishment fund an opportunity to build back up.
Herman told the commissioners that, with their concurrence, staff would plan on the truck haul project on south Siesta in the 2024 fiscal year, which will start on Oct. 1, 2023. In other words, she said, "It's still not going to happen tomorrow."
The staff memo also noted, "The south end of the project area would be the focus of this interim project as it has been the area of the greatest losses of sand both from the Hurricane Hermine disaster [and gradual erosion]."
"Reimbursements from FEMA are anticipated after completion of major milestones of the project (design, construction, post-construction, monitoring)," another of Herman's slides said. The first money coming into the county would be expected in the 2022 or 2023 fiscal year, Herman added.
Board approval and caution
Commissioner Alan Maio made the motion to approve staff's recommendation, which was to authorize County Administrator Jonathan Lewis, or Lewis' designee, to notify FEMA of the county's intent to proceed with developing a scope of work for the truck-haul project and revising estimates of the sand replacement.
Commissioner Charles Hines seconded the motion.
"Once again, staff has really done an excellent job," Maio said.
"This is a lesson for all of us that this will never end," Maio added of the need to keep restoring the beach for tourism and recreational benefits.
Hines also stressed, "Communication on this one's going to be huge," so members of the public will understand why the county will have trucks bringing in new sand. He told Herman that staff would have to ensure that such outreach takes place.
"Yes, sir," she replied.
"Just absolutely great example of leveraging the local taxpayer dollars" to obtain the majority of the funding from the state and federal governments, Chair Michael Moran said before the vote.

Q: Vue: issue with reactive object not updating? I have an item card component I set with an v-for, inside each component you can increase or decrease the number of items the user want to add to the cart, when I click I get an alert and the count increases/decreases as it should but the value discount.quantity doesn't update in mu view, it's always 1 (default value).
I know about reactivity caveats and I'm using Vue.set to make the property reactive but it's not updating... check my component:
<template>

                <button class="DISCOUNTlist6_item_texts_quantity_button" @click="decreaseQuantityByOne()" style="width:40px; height:40px; display:flex; align-items:center; justify-content:center; background-color:rgb(10,10,10);" type="button"></button>

{{ discount.quantity }}

                <button class="DISCOUNTlist6_item_texts_quantity_button" @click="increaseQuantityByOne()" style="width:40px; height:40px; display:flex; align-items:center; justify-content:center; background-color:rgb(10,10,10);" type="button"></button>

            <button class="DISCOUNTlist6_item_texts_quantity_cart_button secondary fs_big" @click="getDiscountData()" :disabled="!globals.auth" style="width:62%; height:40px; background-color:var(--web_primary_color);">Añadir al carrito</button>

</template>

A: See One-Way Data Flow:

All props form a one-way-down binding between the child property and the parent one: when the parent property updates, it will flow down to the child, but not the other way around. This prevents child components from accidentally mutating the parent's state, which can make your app's data flow harder to understand.
In addition, every time the parent component is updated, all props in the child component will be refreshed with the latest value. This means you should not attempt to mutate a prop inside a child component. If you do, Vue will warn you in the console.

Instead, use a proper data property that you can update in the child component.

Hope I've put this in the right section. As a kid I always watched Star Wars from a vhs my dad had recorded off the to. With a new hope all the adverts were cut out but with empire and Jedi they weren't. Most of my viewing experience for these films was mixed with those adverts. Speaking to my dad the other day I was shocked to find he'd thrown the videos away! Does anyone know of any copies of these films with the adverts in!? I'm guessing it would be from itv and would have been recorded in the eighties. Would love to get a copy of empire if not Jedi with the adverts!
I have a copy, probably from myspleen.
What's great is that however recorded it shoved in a beta tape and captured three and a half hours of Christmas day 1988 with Empire in the middle.

Yep, that sounds like the one from myspleen. ISTR it was recorded in the west midlands.
I'm still hoping to track down a copy of the SW 1982 UK TV Premiere with adverts.
Always give the used video section on Ebay a scan, but no luck as yet.
Anyone who wants this should send me a pm for a link.

Here's a pipedream if ever there was.
I have both ANH and Jedi with the ads still in them, I never had Empire as a kid. The quality is pretty awful but I should get them transferred on digital at some point.

I'm full time ill and have plenty of time on my hands. If you trust me with the tapes, I'd make sure they got shared.
Oo please on the Rotj!
Do you know if tapes can be restored if damp has set in?
I'm no expert but I'd unscew it and have a look inside before putting it in my machine. I wouldn't dismiss it, certainly.
Would love to see these, especially ANH.
I reckon the picture quality (or lack of it) actually adds to the charm.

DOCTOR Who's most iconic baddies are clanking back on to our screens - with the Daleks set to appear in the New Year episode.
The return of the merciless cyborgs will mark the lifting of a ban on old monsters by the drama's new boss Chris Chibnall.
The Mirror reports that the return of the Daleks, who will no longer be bronze, is expected to be revealed in a trailer after the Doctor Who finale on Sunday.
Jodie Whittaker's Time Lord will battle the metal-clad menaces in an hour-long special on New Year's Day, breaking a long absence from the show.
Viewers have been without the baddies ever since 2015's episode The Witch's Familiar.
Peter Capaldi was the Doctor then, trying to rescue Clara from his old foes and overseeing the destruction of the Dalek city in the process.
The New Year's Day special, which is the only Doctor Who fans will get to see in 2019, will also star Call the Midwife's Charlotte Richie.
Another full series is not likely to air until early 2020.
The Daleks, created by Who legend Terry Nation, first appeared in 1963, during the tenure of the first Doctor, played by William Hartnell.

Washington Youth Soccer's TOPSoccer program has helped brothers Nolan and Nick Garcia create an even stronger bond.
The first 12 years in the life of Nolan Garcia haven't been easy. Beset with what his mother, Jennifer Garcia, refers to simply as "chronic health issues," Nolan has difficulty hearing and speaking, and is unable to attend a regular public school. His disabilities have also prevented him from following in the footsteps of his older brother, Nick, a 17-year-old soccer player for Emerald Ridge High School and his local club.
That is, until a serendipitous visit to the speech therapist roughly two years ago, where Jennifer picked up a brochure promoting Washington Youth Soccer's TOPSoccer program. The Outreach Program for Soccer, TOPSoccer creates an opportunity for players aged four and older, with physical and/or developmental disabilities, to enjoy the physical and emotional benefit of the game of soccer. Specially trained coaches run practices, while volunteers work individually with the players as buddies to create a supportive and fun environment.
To Jennifer, it seemed like the perfect opportunity.
Nolan, too, says that the opportunity to join his brother on the soccer field was one he had long looked forward to.
"I'd been watching my brother for a long time, and I really wanted to play," he says.
Nolan quickly enrolled — but so did Nick, joining the program as a buddy specifically to work with his brother. For the last two years, the duo have been fixtures at TOPSoccer practices at Bellarmine Prep in Tacoma, where coach Christopher Gavin has helped the brothers connect on a new level through soccer.
Nolan isn't the only one who has discovered a new side to his personality through his participation in TOPSoccer.
Nick noticed, though, that many of the other buddies had difficulty communicating with players who, like Nolan, were hard of hearing. So, with the assistance of Marty Torres, Washington Youth Soccer's TOPSoccer Coordinator, he went to work creating a video to teach basic sign language to TOPSoccer buddies — signs like "Want to play soccer?" "feet," and "team" that would be applicable to a TOPSoccer practice. The video, linked below, is believed to the first of its kind specific to TOPSoccer in the entire nation.
"Nick felt bad because if he couldn't make a session, there was no one else there who could communicate with Nolan," Jennifer says.
"I really wanted to do it for my brother," Nick adds.
Now, thanks to Nick, TOPSoccer buddies across the state, and even the nation, can learn the basic signs to communicate with deaf and hard of hearing players in their programs. For the two Garcia boys, the entire experience has brought them closer.

Han är mest ihågkommen för att när han vunnit Östtysklands Grand Prix 1971 fått den västtyska nationalssången spelad för sig när den östtyska publiken började sjunga hymnen vilket fick Östtysklands regering att stryka sitt arrangörskap.

Spear Minty eliquid by Wizmix is a powerful mint blend. The spearmint flavour, with sharp and peppery notes combined with mentholated undertones, creates a simple yet bold tasting vape.
Wizmix is manufactured in the UK, providing an extensive collection to suit all palates at affordable prices. Flavours in this range include fruit, dessert, menthol, tobacco. If you're a fan of garden fruits, why not try Strawberry Jam.
Taste like Spearmint. Not bad clouds for a 50/50, thought it seemed a lot thinner at first than a 50 / 50 mix but hey-ho.
Not too strong a flavor, tastes like Soft Mints.
Probably will be my ADV.
This is sweet and refreshing, tastes like softmints/mojos! Very pleasant and good as a break from vaping lots of rich bakery-type flavours. Reasonable amount of vapour too considering the PG/VG mix.


Profil John Denver dan artis favorit lain hanya di Lirikbagus.id.
John Denver (December 31, 1943 – October 12, 1997) was born with the name Henry John Deutschendorf Jr. in Roswell, N.M. One of America's most popular performers in the '70s, Denver's rise to fame began when he was "discovered" in a Los Angeles nightclub. He initially joined the Back Porch Majority, a nursery group for the renowned New Christy Minstrels, but, tiring of his role there, he left for the Chad Mitchell Trio where he forged a reputation as a talented songwriter. With the departure of the last original member, the Mitchell Trio became known as Denver, Boise and Johnson, but their brief lifespan ended when Denver embarked on a solo career in 1969. One of his compositions, "Leaving on a Jet Plane," provided an international hit for Peter, Paul and Mary.
Subsequent releases garnered some attention, but it was not until the 1971 release of Poems, Prayers & Promises that the singer enjoyed popular acclaim with "Take Me Home, Country Roads." It marked the first of six gold singles. Following the successes of "Sunshine on My Shoulders" and "Annie's Song," Denver made regular appearances on the country charts in 1974 and 1975 with the No. 1 hits "Back Home Again," "Thank God I'm a Country Boy" and "I'm Sorry." In 1975, he was awarded the CMA award for entertainer of the year, which prompted Charlie Rich to ignite the envelope revealing him as the winner.
He starred in the 1977 hit comedy Oh, God! with George Burns and filmed a TV special, John Denver and the Muppets: A Rocky Mountain Holiday, in 1983. However, he often shied away from acting, choosing to concentrate on activism for causes such as world hunger, ecology, wilderness protection and space exploration. He also attempted to become a civilian astronaut; he learned some Russian to be able to board the Mir Space Station, but balked when the Soviets wanted $10 million for his ticket. He came close to being America's first passenger in space, but his politics were not viewed favorably by the Reagan administration, and instead lost that seat to Christa McCauliffe. The Challenger disaster was the subject of one of his best videos, "Flying For Me." Denver marked two Top 10 country hits in the 1980s for "Some Days Are Diamonds (Some Days Are Stone)" and "Dreamland Express." He partnered with Emmylou Harris in 1983 on "Wild Montana Skies" and sang on the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's 1989 album Will the Circle Be Unbroken, Vol. 2.
In March 2007, the Colorado State Legislature passed SJR07-023 adopting "Rocky Mountain High" as the second official Colorado State Song joining the 1915 adopted "Where the Columbines Grow".

Now is your chance to live on the same waterfront property where Ivar Haglund, the genius creator of Ivar's Acres of Clams once lived.
Haglund bought the property in 1957, after making his name in the fried fish restaurant business. The property now includes two dock homes, a triplex, and a 1937 Cape Cod home, plus a two-car garage, a shop, and storage, reports Curbed Seattle.
The "King of the Waterfront" began as a folksinger, and in 1938 established Seattle's first aquarium at Pier 54, along with a fish-and-chips stand. In 1946, business was booming so Haglund opened the flagship "Acres of Clams" restaurant. According to HistoryLink, in 1965 he began setting off fireworks over Elliott Bay every "Fourth of Jul-Ivar." His charm took him into a career as a radio personality and Puget Sound's principal champion of regional folk music. As if that wasn't impressive enough, in 1976, Haglund bought Seattle's iconic Smith Tower. He served as the city's resident character until he died in 1985.
His massive waterfront compound at 2938 Fuhrman Avenue East, now on the market for $4.9 million, was originally owned by Seattle's illustrious Fuhrman family. The homes are currently occupied by long-term tenants, some of whom knew Haglund way back when. As Curbed learned from the listing agent, the dock homes are not floating as one might suspect. The houses are one of the few properties built on pilings in the entire Seattle region. They are known as "homes over the water." The triplex features three decks, each with their own water view overlooking Portage Bay.
Does it smell like the delicious salty scent of Ivar's famous fish and chips? Like the creamy tang of tartar sauce? Buy this property and all of these wonders could be yours to behold.

Garden Dining Benches
Palermo Pedestal Table with Left Corner and Backless Bench Dining Set
The Palermo Pedestal Table with Left Corner and Backless Bench Dining Set is perfect for garden parties, due to its cosy corner bench and handy pedestal table which allows for ease of moment. The backless bench makes sure there's room for all around a garden table that's as practical as it is good looking! What You Need To Know:
The overall footprint of the L shaped bench part of this set is 200cm on the shortest side and 230cm on the longest side.
The 6mm thick tempered glass top of the Palermo table is fixed to the frame with anti-slip suction pads. Etched glass has a hazy and soft appearance, helping to keep your garden looking crisp, bright and fresh. However, a frosted glass surface isn't overly reflective which means you won't get a glaring reflection in the sun.
The frame of both the table and benches is made from a white powder coated aluminium tube. This makes them lightweight and therefore easy to move and store, yet remains incredibly sturdy and durable. Aluminium is inherently non-rusting and weatherproof, making both the bench and table suitable for outdoor use.
The melange fabric used for our range of outdoor bench cushions has an added showerproof and anti UV protective coating. Being showerproof means that light rain or moisture will not be absorbed into the material while the UV coating will help to prevent the colour of the bench fabric from fading. This is a key feature for outdoor furniture as, during those summer heatwaves and light summer showers, your cushions will be protected.
The seat cushions are constructed of a foam and fibre filling. We've chosen the same foam density that we use for our interior seating but with an added layer of fibre to create a softly wrapped look The combination of the seat and seat back cushions give this corner bench a sofa-esque cosy feel with a level comfort you'd expect to find indoors.
The polywood tables at either end of the Palermo corner garden bench have the look of real wood but won't warp or discolour. Two seat cushions can be added to the polywood frame to create an extra two spaces around the table. When removed, they can be used as a handy side table. This modular feature makes this bench incredibly versatile and changeable to suit your seating needs.
The adjustable floor guides on the feet of the table and benches have been engineered to protect more delicate surfaces but are also adjustable for uneven ground. This is an important feature as outdoor flooring may not always be so even!
All of the materials used for this outdoor bench are Fire Retardant (FR) which means they are incredibly safe for use around your friends and family.
To extend this set further take a look at the 3 Seater Bench with Backrest. The Palermo corner bench is also available in a right hand facing too.

Q: Cache npm install Task in VSTS I have configured a private agent in VSTS and have installed NPM there globally. When I'm trying to install NPM through my build task, it is still installing NPM packages for every build which is taking an aweful lot of time- approximately  12 minutes.
How can I cache the NPM installations so that the build time is reduced?

A: We use npm-cache, npm-cache is a node module that will calculate a hash of your package.json file for every hash it will create zip folder on your build server with the content of node_modules, now npm install is reduced to extracting a zip on every build (of course only in case you didn't actually change package.json).
The idea is: in the first time the tool download the npm packages and save them locally, in the second time if the package.json not changed he takes the packages from the local disk and copy them to the build agent folder, only if the package.json changed he downloads the packages from the internet.

*

*Install the npm-cache on the build machine:
npm install npm-cache -g

*In the build definition add Command Line task (Tool: C:\Windows\User\AppData\Roaming\npm\npm-cache (or just npm-cache if you add the tool to environment path variables); Arguments:install npm; Working folder: $(Build.SourcesDirectory) (or where package.json located).

A: MS has finally implemented this feature (currently in beta) https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/caching/index?view=azure-devops#nodejsnpm
From there:
variables:
  npm_config_cache: $(Pipeline.Workspace)/.npm

steps:
- task: CacheBeta@0
  inputs:
    key: $(Build.SourcesDirectory)/package-lock.json
    path: $(npm_config_cache)
  displayName: Cache npm

- script: npm ci

A: Unfortunately we cannot cache the NPM installations as no such a built-in feature for now.
However there's already a user voice submitted to suggest the feature : Improve hosted build agent performance with build caches, and seems the VSTS team are actively working on this now...
For now, you can try to speed Up NPM INSTALL on Visual Studio Team Services

A: Use Cache task

Caching is added to a pipeline using the Cache pipeline task. This
task works like any other task and is added to the steps section of a
job

With the following configuration:
pool:
  name: Azure Pipelines

steps:
- task: Cache@2
  inputs:
    key: 'YOUR_WEB_DIR/package.json'
    path: 'YOUR_WEB_DIR/node_modules/'

- task: Npm@1
  inputs:
    command: 'install'
    workingDir: 'YOUR_WEB_DIR/frontend'

You can use key YOUR_WEB_DIR/package-lock.json too, but be aware that file might be changed by other next step like npm install so hash also will be changed.


When our neighbour formerly known as Lift came to us looking for a new name and a new look, we set our sights as high as we could. Here's what we came up with.
Winning a branding project can feel like winning the lottery. Actually, we'd like to use a different analogy to paint this picture. Do you watch The Bachelor? No, neither do we. No one "watches the Bachelor". But on the nights that we tripped on the remote and somehow ended up glued to Chris Harrison's every word for an hour, we've familiarized ourselves with the concept of the rose ceremony. For those who also don't watch the Bachelor, we'll elaborate.
The rose ceremony happens at the end of the episode when the cast members' fates are being determined – do they get to stay and fight for a chance at love, or are they packing their bags and heading back home to continue their lives as sport fishing enthusiasts and pizza entrepreneurs? If you're one of the lucky contestants to receive a rose, the smile can't be wiped from your face, and the feeling of pure joy fills your heart. We totally get it, because when Lift made the short journey between our neighbouring offices to give us the good news, they did so with roses, and we felt just like one of those giddy, free-spirited, reality TV show goons.
We were thrilled to work on this project. Not only did they want a new name, but also to create an entirely new look and feel for their community-driven brand. Given the exciting future of the Canadian cannabis community and introduction of the recreational market, Lift & Co. needed a new look to tell their story, share their insights, and celebrate the evolving times. Here's a look at how we approached the project.
When tasked with the renaming of Lift, there were a few things to keep in mind. Primarily the glowing connotations the name holds. The fact that it feels approachable, positive, uplifting and makes us think of lifting a ban or rising up and relief. Since changing the name entirely could have caused issues with existing brand equity, we focused our attention on word differentiators. Another consideration was to not use misspelled words, in order to avoid being any more similar to other competitors' names. We tried all the prefixes, suffixes, compound words, and entirely new words we could think of, but even our favourites didn't quite cut it.
Back to the drawing board we went. We researched plant terminology (in both English and Latin, obvi), words related to health, wellness, and marijuana, and started to really think about spellings and words that fit within the brand ethos that cultivates community. This lead us to think about connection, community, and collaboration. And so, Lift & Co. was born. The '& Co.' signifies connecting the company to its consumers, bridging the informational gap in the space, while also bringing together the entire cannabis community.
Creating an entirely new look included creating a new logo, new style, and new colour palette. The original Lift logo, complete with a cheery blue smiley face helped to reinforce that the brand was friendly, approachable, knowledgeable, and collaborative. Cory, our Art Director, tried many different fonts, colours, and styles – from the obvious to the abstract. He focused on creating a unique and own-able ampersand that could be used as a stand-alone graphic. We call this the 'laughing ampersand' as it resembles someone laughing (a nod to the old branding – smiley face). This also reflects the brand ethos. We then chose a typeface that paired well with the ampersand and added some unique characteristics to the wordmark, such as the notched L and the FT ligature. The new colour palette consists of desaturated muted tones to keep the tone of the brand calming and cool, while also elevated, stylish, and a little bit grown up.
We feel honoured and happy to have brought Lift & Co. into this new world, which is about to change even further with legalization on its way. It's an exciting time and Lift & Co. is ready to lead you through it, allowing you to search smarter and consume confidently. Check out the new look over on their site and enter their #LiftOff contest for a chance to win a hot air balloon ride!


Senior Manya Aronin has been playing violin since she was three years old. Photo by Rachel Hazan.
When Aronin was three years old, the roles were reversed. She sat in the crowd in awe of the violinist on stage at a Detroit Symphony Orchestra concert for young audiences with her grandparents. After the show, she had the opportunity to see the backstage workings of an orchestra and fell in love with the violin. A year later, her grandparents surprised her with a violin of her own, and since then, it has remained an integral part of her life.
As Aronin has gotten older, she has a lot to balance between music and school; she practices for four hours a day and takes lessons once a week. But the work and time commitment is a small price to pay for the satisfaction the violin provides her, she said.
Sometimes, her rigorous practice schedule comes before her social life.
Manya's mother, Alana Aronin, said that Manya's intense commitment to her violin allows her to tackle any difficult musical piece.
Manya Aronin has experienced tremendous success in her violin career already, performing at Carnegie Hall and countless other prestigious venues. Two summers ago, Aronin was one of 10 musicians chosen to attend Interlochen, a six week summer camp, on a full scholarship.
Despite her abundant experience and many achievements, Manya Aronin still feels pressure while performing on stage.
With time, however, she said that it has become easier to handle the stress.
Aronin is currently auditioning for conservatories—schools devoted to preparing students for careers in music. In general, conservatories only offer music classes, yet there are some academic requirements as well.
Despite the stress of auditioning, Manya Aronin continues to play for herself.

In its franchise history, the team has won seven division titles. As the Brooklyn Cyclones, the team has won five division titles, made the playoffs eight times and in 2001, the Cyclones were declared co-league champions with the Williamsport Crosscutters, being forced to prematurely end their championship series due to the September 11 attacks, despite the Cyclones leading the series one game to none.
The Cyclones began as the St. Catharines, Ontario, St. Catharines Blue Jays (later St. Catharines Stompers) in 1986 as a team in the New York–Penn League. They were named for their parent club, the Toronto Blue Jays. In 1995, the team was sold by the city of Toronto to a group of local investors which included former Toronto catcher Ernie Whitt.
In 1999, New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani announced a deal that would bring two minor league baseball teams to the boroughs outside Manhattan. New ballparks would be constructed for the Staten Island Yankees and the Cyclones. Prior to the 2000 season, the team was bought and moved to Queens, becoming known as the Queens Kings. The club played its 2000 season at Jack Kaiser Stadium on the St. John's University campus in Jamaica, in the borough of Queens, remaining a Blue Jays affiliate for one last season.
A "name-the-team" contest was held to determine a new name for the franchise. The winning selection, Cyclones, refers to the famous Coney Island Cyclone roller coaster at nearby Astroland amusement park on Coney Island. The team's new park, which was then called KeySpan Park, was completed in time for the 2001 season. Brooklyn had been without professional baseball since the Brooklyn Dodgers left Ebbets Field for Los Angeles, California in 1958. After approximately three weeks of play, additional seats had to be added to the stadium to accommodate fans.
The Cyclones managed by Edgar Alfonzo played well in their opening season with the best record in the league, 52–24 where the led the NY Penn-League with a 2.35 team ERA. They defeated the Staten Island Yankees in a classic NYPL opening playoff round. The deciding game won by the Cyclones 4–1 featured trickery by Catcher Brett Kay who faked giving up on a play only to receive a laser throw from John Toner to tag out a runner at the plate. advancing to the championship series against the Williamsport Crosscutters. The Cyclones traveled to Bowman Field in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, winning the series opener on September 10, 2001 by a score of 8-4. The potential championship clincher was scheduled for September 11 in Brooklyn. However, due to the September 11 attacks, all minor league baseball playoffs were canceled. The Cyclones and Crosscutters were declared co-champions.
The 2002 season was filled with inconsistent play and questionable pitching decisions by manager Howard Johnson[citation needed] leading to a .500 season. Scott Kazmir pitched to a 0.50 ERA in five starts and had 34 strikeouts in only 18 innings pitched.
In 2003, the Cyclones managed by Tim Teufel won the McNamara division title with brilliant pitching led by starters, soon to be Major Leaguers, Matt Lindstrom and Brian Bannister and by relievers Robert Paulk and Carlos Muñiz. Despite a drop in run production, the Cyclones pitching staff willed their way into the playoffs, beating the Oneonta Tigers 2 games to 1 only to lose in the NYPL Championship to the Williamsport Crosscutters 2 games to none.
The 2004 season brought the most complete Cyclones team ever. Managed by Tony Tijerina, three batters hit over .300 and five starting pitchers made their starts in rotation for the last 55 games of the season except one game. The Cyclones won the McNamara division title only to lose to the Tri-City ValleyCats in controversial fashion. With the series tied, the Cyclones were leading 3-0 in the 3rd inning when the games was held up and eventually cancelled by rain, which wiped out the score. After another rainout, Game 3 was played from the beginning where the Cyclones lost the deciding game 7-1. A new rule was placed by the NY-Penn League that any games suspended because of rain, if a team or teams have scored runs in the game, the suspended game will be picked from the inning when the game was called.
The 2005 season managed by Mookie Wilson was hampered by inconsistent relief pitching that hampered games in the later innings despite a good offense. The Cyclones finished third and missed the playoffs. On August 23, 2005, The Cyclones and KeySpan Park hosted the first-ever New York–Penn League All-Star Game, which was won by the National League-affiliated team 5–4. Also that year, the Cyclones became a major partner of Brooklyn's High School of Sports Management, a small school located down the block from MCU Park on West 19th Street and Mermaid Ave.
The 2006 season managed by George Greer mirrored the team name. A 7-game losing streak to start the season was followed by a 10-game winning streak which led the streaky Cyclones to the NYPL Playoffs in a dramatic extra-inning victory against the Vermont Lake Monsters in the final game of the season. The Cyclones would lose to the SI Yanks in the NYPL opening playoff round 2 games to none. On July 20, 2006, the Cyclones and the Oneonta Tigers took part in the longest game in the history of the New York–Penn League, a 26-inning marathon that the Cyclones lost, 6–1. The game took 6 hours and 40 minutes to complete. The Cyclones scored their lone run in the first inning; Oneonta tied the game in the fourth and then did not score again until they scored five runs in the top of the 26th inning. Cyclones manager George Greer was ejected from the contest in the first inning for arguing an umpire's call on a force play at second base.[1]
The 2007 season managed by Edgar Alfonzo had the second most successful season in team history with a 49–25 record. With a consistent offense, great pitching and the best defense in the league, the Cyclones powered their way to winning its fourth McNamara division title and sweeping the SI Yankees in two straight games in the NYPL opening playoff round. Game One produced the best road win in team history when the Cyclones beat the SI Yanks, 8–4. However, the Cyclones went on to getting swept in disappointing fashion by the Auburn Doubledays for the NYPL Championship. After giving up a leadoff home run to shortstop Matt Bouchard, future Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Brett Cecil pitched one hit ball in 7 innings as the Doubledays won the game 4-1. On September 7, 2007, during the final regular season game (a 5–4 victory over the Lowell Spinners), the Cyclones set an all-time single-game attendance record of 10,073—2,573 more than the stadium's seating capacity in 2001. That season, the team won its fourth McNamara division title.
The 2008 season managed again by Edgar Alfonzo was marred by a poor start but recovered with a torrid finish at 45–30, narrowly missing the playoffs after losing the final game of the season to the Aberdeen Ironbirds 5-3 in extra innings. The team produced Major Leaguers and future New York Mets Ike Davis and Jenrry Mejía. But the team was marred with an inconsistent offense with less than average results with runners in scoring position.
On August 23, 2009, Cyclones pitcher Brandon Moore threw a 7-inning no-hitter in the first game of a doubleheader against the Aberdeen IronBirds, 5–0, at Ripken Stadium. Moore walked three and hit one batter, with only one IronBird reaching second base. This came seven years to the day Miguel Pinango threw a nine-inning one-hitter for the Cyclones, pitching 8 ⅔ innings of no-hit ball.
On February 4, 2010, the team announced that the new name of their home would be called Municipal Credit Union (MCU) Park, replacing KeySpan as the naming right sponsor, which had held the naming rights from the opening of the stadium in 2001. In addition to the naming rights, MCU and the Cyclones entered into a comprehensive 11-year marketing partnership that launches the Cyclones' 10th season in Brooklyn. The partner agreement is scheduled to last until 2020.
The Cyclones' main rival are the Staten Island Yankees, a rivalry often called the "Battle of the Boroughs", after the boroughs of Brooklyn and Staten Island, or the "Battle for the Bridge", after the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge which separates the two teams. Only 13 miles (21 km) apart, the two teams have the closest proximity in Minor League Baseball. The two teams generally sell out the games which pit them against each other. A major contribution to this intense rivalry is the fact that both parent teams are also based in New York (the Mets in Queens, and the Yankees in the Bronx). Other regional rivals include the Hudson Valley Renegades and the Tri-City ValleyCats.
Seinfeld Night
Since 2014, the Cyclones have dedicated one night a year as a tribute to the popular sitcom Seinfeld, featuring various show tributes such as an "Elaine Benes dancing contest", determining if a fan had either picked or scratched their nose, the Cyclones wearing "Puffy Shirt"-styled jerseys, appearances from former actors and giveaways honoring the show. This game has since become one of the Cyclones' most popular events, regularly selling out in advance and drawing fans of both baseball and Seinfeld from near and far.
AlumniEdit
The first Cyclone to break into the major leagues was infielder Danny Garcia, who made his debut with the New York Mets on September 2, 2003 at Shea Stadium. Scott Kazmir, who played with Brooklyn in 2002, made his major league debut with the Tampa Bay Devil Rays in 2004. Still with the Rays in 2008, Kazmir was tagged with the loss in Game 1 of the 2008 World Series. He is the first former Cyclone to reach the World Series, though Lenny DiNardo, who pitched with the Cyclones in 2001, won a World Series ring with the Boston Red Sox in 2004 while on the Disabled List.
Mike Jacobs, who was a member of the inaugural 2001 Cyclones team, made his Mets debut on August 21, 2005, hitting a three run pinch-hit home run off Washington Nationals pitcher Esteban Loaiza. In 30 games with 100 at bats for the Mets, Jacobs hit 11 home runs and had 23 RBI before being traded to the Florida Marlins after the season.
In April 2006, Brian Bannister became the first Cyclone pitcher to make his debut with the Mets in a game against the Washington Nationals at Shea. The following April, sidearm reliever Joe Smith, who pitched for the Cyclones in 2006, made his major league debut on opening day for the Mets against the St. Louis Cardinals. Smith pitched a scoreless third of an inning in the Mets win. First baseman/outfielder Nick Evans was called up on May 24, 2008 as an injury replacement. Evans, who played with the Cyclones in 2005, had 3 doubles in his first major league game. Ike Davis played for the Cyclones in 2008.
As of 2016, the Cyclones had sent 60 players to the Major Leagues. The current Major Leaguers who are former Brooklyn Cyclones are:

Edgar & Edgardo Alfonzo are brothers.
Tom Signore left the team in July 2014 due to a concussion & was replaced by Dave LaRoche. Signore was named the pitching coach for 2015, but was forced to miss the season due to the concussion. David Davalillo joined the Cyclones late in the 2014 season after the DSL Mets finished their season.
Retired and honored numbersEdit
A total of 10 numbers hang on the press level of MCU Park.
Brooklyn Dodgers: 4: Duke Snider; 14: Joan & Gil Hodges 17: Carl Erskine; 36: Don Newcombe; 42: Jackie Robinson;
Brooklyn Cyclones: 6: Danny Garcia; 19: Brian Bannister; 20: Dillon Gee; 35: Ángel Pagán;
NOTE: A Cyclones player may still wear these numbers, with the exception of 14, & 42. Additionally, no Cyclone may wear 31 (Mike Piazza), 37 (Casey Stengel) or 41 (Tom Seaver) due to the numbers being retired by the Mets.
On August 22, 2011, the Brooklyn Cyclones also honored Pia Toscano, who sang the anthem prior to a game in 2003 by putting a plaque on the press level.
On August 15, 2014, the Cyclones added Joan Hodges, the widow of Gil Hodges, to the ring of Honored Numbers.
MascotsEdit
The Cyclones have two mascots, Sandy the Seagull and Pee-Wee. Sandy, the primary mascot, has been with the team since the inaugural Cyclones season in 2001. Pee-wee was introduced in 2003 as Sandy's adopted son. Sandy is named for Brooklyn/Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Sandy Koufax, while Pee-Wee was named after Brooklyn Dodgers shortstop Pee Wee Reese. Even though Hurricane Sandy damaged MCU Park and Coney Island, the Cyclones kept the name Sandy on their mascot.
In 2006, the team introduced a new unnamed mascot: a blow-up "ZOOperstars!" type pelican. Despite a contest to name the character, it was never given an official name. The Pelican has not made an appearance since the 2006 season. In 2008, Maverick the Wonder Dog was introduced. He was a real Chocolate Labrador Retriever who was owned by one of the Cyclones staff members. The goal was to have Maverick learn tricks like picking up baseballs and bats. Like the Pelican, Maverick lasted only one season.
A Hot Dog race is held at every game at MCU Park, which is sponsored by Nathan's Famous. The first Nathan's store is located two blocks away from the ballpark. The three hot dogs currently racing are Ketchup, Mustard, and Relish. For many years Relish has become the loveable loser because he either wins very few races or none at all during the season.
On field entertainersEdit
2001–2003: "Party Marty" Haber, a member of the Cyclones front office.
2003–present: King Henry A local entertainer. In 2013, King Henry became the main on field entertainer.
2007–2010: Jay Moran, who had served as PA Announcer in 2006.
2011: Jason Negron
2012: Dave Pecoraro, a member of the Cyclones front office.
In 2013, Bucky the Buccaneer was introduced. Every time the Brooklyn Cyclones would score a run, this pirate themed mascot would run around the field from one dugout to the next, waving his rally flags in excitement. Bucky was played by a first year intern, Daniel DePasquale. He worked with the Brooklyn Cyclones for 2 seasons.
BEACH BUMS & SURF SQUAD
The original "Cyclones Beach Bums" were a promotional team of men and women who entertained the ballpark from 2003 through 2008, were seen all over the ballpark dancing, interacting with fans, and handing out promotional items. In 2009, the team decided to hire an all women dance team to replace the Beach Bums, but still retaining the Beach Bum name. The dance team is similar to that of the New York Knicks, New York Dragons and New York Islanders.
Following the 2016 season, the all women's dance team was done away with & the team was reverted to what it was in the past. The team was rebranded as the Surf Squad.
Public address announcersEdit
2001–2005: Dom Alagia.
2006: Sean Howard for 1 month, replaced by Jay Moran a PA Announcer at St. John's.
2007 – July 2010: David Freeman, who had served as PA Announcer for the Queens Kings. Freeman left to become an MLB Scorer with the Mets & Yankees.
August 2010 – Present: Mark Fratto, who also serves as the PA Announcer for NYCFC, the Westchester Knicks & Sky Blue FC.
WKRB (90.3 FM) was the official radio station of the Cyclones. It served as radio home for every Cyclones season through 2016, with the exception of 2012 when WSOU was the official radio station of the Cyclones. Cyclones games will air occasionally on BCAT & SNY.
2001–2011: Warner Fusselle served as radio voice of the Brooklyn Cyclones from their inception until his death on June 10, 2012, a week prior to the 2012 Cyclones season.
2012: David Rind, Vincent Coughlin and Chris Paizis, who all called Seton Hall baseball, split the broadcasting duties, with Rind serving as the road announcer.
2013: David Greenwald served as the radio voice of the Cyclones for 1 year on WKRB.
2014–2017: Stu Johnson. In addition to Brooklyn Cyclones games, Stu also announced Brooklyn Bolts games on WKRB. Jake Eisenberg joined Johnson in the booth for the 2017 season.
2018-Present: Keith Raad & Dom Savino took over the announcing duties after the departure of Johnson & Eisenberg.
2001–present: The Brooklyn Paper has covered every Cyclones game since the team's inception. Columnists for The Paper following the team through the years include Gersh Kuntzman and Ed Shakespeare. The Paper's Cyclones section is edited by Vince DiMiceli.
