The Music Ambassador also spoke to the media about a letter he sent ot the then Director of the National Institute of Culture and History (NICH), Sapna Budhrani. In the letter Barrow recorded his discontent in her leadership and the various positions that she was in control of. He states that he still stands firm with his view of her position and believes she is not the best candidate for the job.
Music Ambassador Shyne Barrow: I certainly stand by my sentiments. I do think that it is inappropriate that you have a President who is also the Administrator for checks and balances. For accountability and transparency it is important that those roles be separated. In fact that is why it was structured like that to begin with so certainly you can't have the CFO be the CEO, be the President, be everything and certainly there have been very many concerns raised by different executives as to the operations of NICH. Certainly my biggest concern is the fact that to date I have not gotten a commitment from Ms. Budhrani with the Garifuna Collective going to WOMEX. I actually sent her an email over a month ago and she responded to me finally last Friday. Sent her an email in June; she responded to me last Friday so that gives me great concern. I have done a tremendous amount of work for the creative industry, for the Music Industry. In particular people like Karen Vernon and Greg Vernon and Neil Hall, they have all done a tremendous amount of work and we just hate to see that be reversed, so my letter was not for public consumption. It was to try to raise the issues that I raised in hopes that they will be taken seriously and be considered and we will have our way forth but the way forth has been to just not respond to me and I think that doesn't demonstrate leadership capacity.
He states that his concerns are still there even though she has since been promoted to President. He believes that his concerns on a whole have been disregarded by the board.

Smokey Bear Remains a Symbol of What a Powerful Public-Service Ad Campaign Can Achieve
The star of the longest-running public-service advertising campaign in US history has now received a fresh lease of life on social media.

Smokey Bear turns 75 on August 9.
The star of the longest-running public-service advertising campaign in US history is now big on social media, with Facebook, Flickr, Instagram and Twitter accounts.
Americans are also still sending the imaginary character loads of real mail. The postal service has delivered hundreds of thousands of the bear's many letters and occasional jars of honey to his own ZIP code: 20252.
Some 96% of Americans recognised this constant reminder to keep forests safe, according to a survey in 2013, making him about as familiar as Mickey Mouse and Santa Claus.
By the way, there's no "the" in Smokey's name. The word was added by songwriters to make their 1952 medley dedicated to the iconic image more catchy.
Wartime propaganda
I researched Smokey and six other public service ad campaigns for my book about the Ad Council, the nonprofit that creates public-service campaigns on behalf of clients like the US Forest Service. It taught me that there's much more going on with that friendly face than you probably realise.
The fire-prevention campaign, like the Ad Council itself, has a past rooted in wartime propaganda.
A Japanese submarine had surfaced off the coast of California on February 23, 1942, and fired a volley of shells toward an oil field. This first wartime attack on the US mainland caused little property damage and no loss of life, but it had an enormous psychological impact.
The threat to America's national security including its vast lumber supply, needed to build ships and guns to fight the war, worried government officials and business leaders alike. The Forest Service worked with what was then known as the War Advertising Council, and later became the Ad Council, to create a fire prevention campaign.
Some of the early posters harnessed the power of prejudice. One depicted a caricature of a Japanese soldier with a menacing grin as he held a lighted match against the backdrop of a forest, flanked by the slogan "Careless Matches Aid the Axis – Prevent Forest Fires!." Another featured sinister renditions of Adolf Hitler and Japanese Prime Minister Hideki Tojo in front of a raging forest fire with the slogan, "Our Carelessness, Their Secret Weapon."
With the war winding down in 1944, the Forest Service wanted the campaign to keep educating Americans about forest fire prevention, minus the scary imagery. After briefly featuring Bambi, the deer from the popular Walt Disney 1942 film, the Forest Service landed on a black bear. It hired New York artist Albert Staehle, who drew "Butch," a floppy-eared cocker spaniel seen on Saturday Evening Post covers.
Some thinkers have argued that the bear is a symbol of white racist colonialism. Photo: Oregon Department of Forestry/Flickr (CC BY 2.0)
In 1944, Staehle created a tender-looking bear pouring a bucket of water over a campfire for the Forest Service. Three years later, came the well-known slogan that told Americans "only you can prevent forest fires."
Whose land is it?
Sometimes, Smokey gets caught in the middle of the campaign's roots in World War II patriotism, propaganda and racism.
Some scholars, including geographer Jake Kosek, who study anthropology and race even argue that the campaign is a symbol of white racist colonialism.
Also read: The Nation in a One-Liner: The Amul Ad's Brief and Witty Humour
Kosek documented how the bear can trouble Native Americans, Chicanos and other people living off the land who are unhappy with the US government's land management policies.
In the forests of Northern New Mexico, local people see Smokey's fire prevention message as a threat because they burn off small parts of the forest to plant crops or graze animals. Kosek found Smokey's posters riddled with bullets in protest.

Kosek said the fire-suppression campaign reflects a belief, deeply rooted in the Forest Service's history, that people who set fires in forests are deviants and evildoers.
A Smokey effect
There is also growing controversy about whether the campaign's message contributes to the wildfire problem since research shows that some fires help forests.
To be sure, fire suppression as a policy didn't originate with Smokey. It started after a disastrous fire in 1910.
In the 1930s there were 167,277 fires per year, according to a report from the Forest Service, other government agencies and the Ad Council. They credit Smokey for helping make that number fall to 106,306 in the 1990s. There may now be fewer fires, about 72,400 fires annually since 2000, but they have grown larger and more destructive in many regards.
Contrary to Smokey's message, fires can be good for forests. There are forest management professionals who say the campaign interferes with the government's ability to manage the problem by preventing small fires that clear out underbrush and tiny trees.
This is called "the Smokey Bear effect."
The Forest Service itself said this phenomenon has made forests less healthy and increased the intensity of wildfires in some areas in its 2007 report, "Be Careful What You Wish For: The Legacy of Smokey Bear."
Despite his critics, Smokey seems destined for an even longer career. That's because the Insurance Information Institute says 90% of "wildland fires" in America are caused by people.
That could make Smokey's message as important as ever.

Losing Face: Two More Cases of Third-Party Facebook App Data Exposure
The UpGuard Cyber Risk team can now report that two more third-party developed Facebook app datasets have been found exposed to the public internet. One, originating from the Mexico-based media company Cultura Colectiva, weighs in at 146 gigabytes and contains over 540 million records detailing comments, likes, reactions, account names, FB IDs and more. This same type of collection, in similarly concentrated form, has been cause for concern in the recent past, given the potential uses of such data.
A separate backup from a Facebook-integrated app titled "At the Pool" was also found exposed to the public internet via an Amazon S3 bucket. This database backup contained columns for fk_user_id, fb_user, fb_friends, fb_likes, fb_music, fb_movies, fb_books, fb_photos, fb_events, fb_groups, fb+checkins, fb_interests, password, and more. The passwords are presumably for the "At the Pool" app rather than for the user's Facebook account, but would put users at risk who have reused the same password across accounts.
Redacted example of Facebook data from the exposed At the Pool dataset.
The At the Pool discovery is not as large as the Cultura Colectiva dataset, but it contains plaintext (i.e. unprotected) passwords for 22,000 users. At the Pool ceased operation in 2014 (last non-redirect web archived capture here), and even the parent company's website is currently returning a 404 error notice. This should offer little consolation to the app's end users whose names, passwords, email addresses, Facebook IDs, and other details were openly exposed for an unknown period of time.
Data contained in the exposed Cultura Colectiva dataset.
Each of the data sets was stored in its own Amazon S3 bucket configured to allow public download of files.
The data sets vary in when they were last updated, the data points present, and the number of unique individuals in each. What ties them together is that they both contain data about Facebook users, describing their interests, relationships, and interactions, that were available to third party developers. As Facebook faces scrutiny over its data stewardship practices, they have made efforts to reduce third party access. But as these exposures show, the data genie cannot be put back in the bottle. Data about Facebook users has been spread far beyond the bounds of what Facebook can control today. Combine that plenitude of personal data with storage technologies that are often misconfigured for public access, and the result is a long tail of data about Facebook users that continues to leak.
Redacted example of Facebook data from the exposed Cultura Colectiva dataset.
These two separate discoveries demonstrated two polar opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to the ease, or difficulty, of seeing them secured. With regard to the Cultura Colectiva data, our first notification email went out to Cultura Colectiva on January 10th, 2019. The second email to them went out on January 14th. To this day there has been no response.
Due to the data being stored in Amazon's S3 cloud storage, we then notified Amazon Web Services of the situation on January 28th. AWS sent a response on February 1st informing us that the bucket's owner was made aware of the exposure.
When February 21st rolled around and the data was still not secured, we again sent an email to Amazon Web Services. AWS again responded on that same day stating they would look into further potential ways to handle the situation.
It was not until the morning of April 3rd, 2019, after Facebook was contacted by Bloomberg for comment, that the database backup, inside an AWS S3 storage bucket titled "cc-datalake," was finally secured.
On the flip side of the coin, the data stemming from "At the Pool" had been taken offline during the time UpGuard was looking into the likely data origin, and prior to a formal notification email being sent. It is unknown if this is a coincidence, if there was a hosting period lapse, or if a responsible party became aware of the exposure at that time. Regardless, the application is no longer active and all signs point to its parent company having shut down.
These two situations speak to the inherent problem of mass information collection: the data doesn't naturally go away, and a derelict storage location may or may not be given the attention it requires.
For app developers on Facebook, part of the platform's appeal is access to some slice of the data generated by and about Facebook users. For Cultura Colectiva, data on responses to each post allows them to tune an algorithm for predicting which future content will generate the most traffic. The data exposed in each of these sets would not exist without Facebook, yet these data sets are no longer under Facebook's control. In each case, the Facebook platform facilitated the collection of data about individuals and its transfer to third parties, who became responsible for its security. The surface area for protecting the data of Facebook users is thus vast and heterogenous, and the responsibility for securing it lies with millions of app developers who have built on its platform.


…and hoping for peace and security in our world on this Memorial Day.
Last week on Randall's Island.
A late afternoon walk on the High Line.
Went to Duke Farms in Hillsborough NJ – 2000 acres of farmland, lakes, trails, all environmentally friendly and just beautiful.

Shutting Down Hate: Right-wing Nationalists Retreat in the 2nd Battle of Berkeley
On Sunday, August 27th a right-wing nationalist rally was scheduled to happen at Martin Luther King Jr. Park, in Berkeley's civic center. The planned hate party was cancelled last minute over "safety" concerns from its organizers. The same predicament had played out the day before in San Francisco, where the organized response to a similar planned rally prompted thousands to march and openly denounce bigotry, racism, and organized hate in their city. What was sensationalized and projected to be a violent weekend of clashes with white nationalists and a left of center responses became an overwhelming, unified response against the hate espoused by neo-Nazis, white Nationalists, and conservative xenophobes from the San Francisco and East Bay community.
Given the outcome of the first battle in Berkeley on April 26th earlier this year and the rage prompted by Charlottesville a few weeks ago, I anticipated a strong response from the Antifa factions that were humiliated as they were punched, kicked, and run out of the civic center last April. Numerous response rallies marched to what many might have imagined was going to be a Berkeley civic center crawling with hate-groups and angry far-Right wingers by late afternoon. What they found was the remnants of a loud, and often volatile debate on hate. Although hate-groups passed on showing up, individuals whose Right-wing, racist convictions are strong enough to risk the public ridicule made their presence known. Just like in Charlottesville, those who came defending far-Right ideas and Trump's hate mongering agenda were debated, shouted at, and ultimately run out of the grounds.
Exiting the park I had heavy feeling in my heart that had me thinking of Dr. King. Although the rage and indignity arises from love, I couldn't help but to feel the ruse of power among us. I felt no one won that day. That's the tragedy of it all. The powder keg was lit in Charlottesville, the clown President gave the flame oxygen, and now we have more tragedy ahead of us.
Interesting times for my camera's lens, but such a sad state of affairs in the nation.
RIP Heather Heyer.

White Silence Is Violence
White Violence is Silence (Black Lives Matters Series), Oakland CA, Summer 2016.
A white majority made itself heard last week in the U.S. putting its support behind a candidate that promises to keep his bigoted, White-nationalist, Islamophobic promises.
This shot (taken this summer the day after Alton Brown murder) signals irony and impossibility given the recent turn of events in the Presidential election. Irony lies behind the predictions and poll models that were confident most Americans would make an ethical choice. The impossibility of being trapped between White silence and the White rural vote for the next four years leaves many of us with nothing but disappointment because making America great never includes making room for folks of color.
Sorry Langston, we are still having to fight for our place on the table.

Here's a brief page about the stand for my Ent-B. It details how to construct a sturdy stand that looks good and can be removed easily. I hope this helps some of my fellow modelers out there!
Take whatever you're using for the stand (I use plexiglass rod) and wrap it with a piece of sheet styrene. I used a piece of .04″ thickness styrene and curled it up as tightly as I could, then it seemed to hold the shape better. Glue it together with smaller strips on the outside, being careful not to get any glue on the plexiglass and secure it with tape. When it's dry slide the styrene tube off and measure it.
Drill completely through the shuttle bay area as well. This is also tough, as the shuttle bay wants to fall out. To be honest, my kit split down the seam quite a bit, and the shuttle bay fell completely out. I had to drill through the shuttle bay seperately and then do some repair work to the seams on the hull. This is the toughest part, but well worth the effort. Because the hole goes so far through the kit, the stand is incredibly steady! I don't have to worry about the cat knocking it over.
For this next step I went ahead and glued on the top of the engineering hull. Test fit the tube and make sure you can get it in and out fairly easily. I used a 'plastic welder' epoxy that I found at Wal-mart to secure the tube at the base (the bottom in the picture) and in the shuttle bay. (Don't use 5 minute epoxy, It won't stick to the styrene very well) I used a lot at the bottom of the tube just to make sure it would hold. I used regular model glue at the top of the tube and let it all dry. Before it's completely dry, slide the plexiglass into it, just to make sure the tube hasn't warped from the glue.
When it's all dry, cut off the piece that is still sticking out and sand it smooth. You might need to putty around the edges of it (I had some serious gaps!) and sand it smooth again. Congratulations! A beautiful and sturdy stand hole! Now just drill a hole in your favorite selection of wood, epoxy the plexiglass into it, glue some felt on the bottom, and you're done!

Vaughan Williams in his garden at The White Gates in Dorking
We are indebted to The Oxford University Press, James Day and the late Michael Kennedy without whose help this list could not have been compiled.
Vaughan Williams wrote nine symphonies, no two of which are similar. Each displays its own unique mood. His first was A Sea Symphony written between 1903 and 1909 in which he explores the 'deep waters' of Walt Whitman's "Leaves of Grass". His last, composed between 1957 and 1958 was Symphony No 9, originally inspired by Hardy's work "Tess of the D'Urbervilles". Vaughan Williams did not number his symphonies but designated them with either a name or a key signature.
For soprano, baritone, mixed chorus, and orchestra.

New Papo Prehistoric Animal Models
Papo Introduces a Number of New Replicas and One Re-paint (Time to form your Own T. rex Family Group)
The French based figure and model manufacturer Papo have announced their new prehistoric animal models for 2012. Papo market their prehistoric animals under the "Dinosaures" brand, with the introduction of a total of seven new replicas, three of which are not dinosaurs, it may be time for Papo to extend this umbrella branding to include "animaux préhistoriques".
The high standards that collectors have come to expect from Papo have been maintained, and the new introductions brings the total model range to twenty-five (including the two cavemen figures). There are a couple of retirements. Firstly, the camp fire that we at Everything Dinosaur sold along with the two cavemen figures, this is being retired and we don't think any more will be available. In addition, the award winning T. rex with its moving lower jaw is being replaced by a re-painted version – a sort of T. rex with a makeover, the colour scheme will be predominately light brown.

It is fascinating to see how Papo's designers are modifying their range of prehistoric animal models. This T. rex has been one of the company's "flag ship" replicas, and it has proved to be a top selling sculpt over the years. The re-paint is interesting, with its subtle stripes and dusky colours, perhaps a homage to the origins of the really big Late Cretaceous Tyrannosaurs which are believed to have originated from the dry and dusky interior of China, before they migrated into North America. This model will be available from Everything Dinosaur in February.
Tyrannosaurs have certainly been at the centre of Papo's design efforts over the last few months, as hot on the heels of the re-paint, comes a brand new sculpt of an adult Tyrannosaurus and what a monster this is!

There are some subtle differences between this new interpretation and the previous model of this iconic dinosaur. The forelimbs have been slightly re-positioned to reflect the latest thinking regarding their position and the lack of pronation that big Theropods had; (the ability to twist their arms and to hold their fingers parallel to the ground). The eye crests are retained but these are joined by a small, raised ridge that runs from the skull down the neck and the dentition (layout of the teeth) has been altered. The model is very well balanced and gives the appearance of movement, with T. rex being depicted as a lean and muscular predator. The first T. rex replica produced by Papo was heavily influenced by the Tyrannosaurus rex that featured in the Jurassic Park film trilogy, our experts at Everything Dinosaur have noticed the influence of another Tyrannosaur seen in recent films, in this new replica – the prominent premaxilla and the large teeth resemble the Tyrannosaur known as Vastatosaurus rex seen in the Peter Jackson re-make of King Kong that came out in 2005. The Vastatosaurus rex was interpreted as being a descendant from the North American Tyrannosaurs, it was the top predator on Skull Island and the only dinosaur brave and strong enough to tackle the giant ape. This new model will be available in February 2012.

Did this influence the Papo Replica?
The Tyrannosaur theme continues with the introduction of two juvenile Tyrannosaurus replicas. The design team at Papo must have been reading up on recently published scientific papers which postulated that Tyrannnosaurs may have been pack hunters, living in small family groups. The recently refurbished and re-opened dinosaur halls at the Los Angeles County Natural History Museum, features an exhibit of three skeletons of T. rex, an adult, a teenager and a juvenile all feeding off the carcase of a dead Edmontosaurus. This is the first time, that Tyrannosaurs have been depicted in a family group. We think that Luis Chiappe, the Director of the Museum's Dinosaur Halls would be intrigued to see how Papo have interpreted the young T. rexes.

The Juvenile T, rex (Baby T. rex – green)
Young T. rex from Papo
The Baby T. rex (brown replica) fromPapo
A Nasty Nipper!
Our experts at Everything Dinosaur, think the green T. rex represents a slightly older animal, whereas the brown T. rex is a replica of a much younger animal, perhaps less than a year old, if current ontogeny theory (growth rate) associated with Late Cretaceous Tyrannosaurs is correct. The age of the animal can be estimated by looking at the body proportions, note the size of the head in comparison with the rest of the creature. In both models, the head is raised as if the young creature is looking up at one of its parents, perhaps begging for food or seeking the assurance and protection of an older member of the Tyrannosaur family group. Papo is to be commended for taking the time and trouble to research some of the latest theories regarding Tyrannosaurs and then incorporate this research into their figures.
We suspect that just like at the Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History, these T. rex models can be posed so that collectors and dinosaur fans alike can form their own T. rex family group. All the Tyrannosaur models are scheduled to be available from February.
Joining the large Woolly Mammoth available from Papo, comes not one but two baby Mammoths. The trend to feature prehistoric animals in family groups seems to extend from the Tyrannosaurs of the Late Cretaceous right up to last Ice Age with these new Papo models.
The Baby Woolly Mammoth (Standing)
Baby Woolly Mammoth – the New Lyuba?
When team members at Everything Dinosaur first saw this picture, we thought "cute" the vulnerability of a young creature in a harsh environment has really been captured by the Papo model makers. This sculpt reminded us of "Lyuba" the remarkable fossilised Mammoth baby found just a few years ago in Siberia. With the retirement of other hand-painted Mammoth models, these two replicas are very welcome.

Mammoth on the Move
Note the humps on the back of these young animals. Scientists studying the extremely well-preserved remains of "Lyuba" the youngest Mammoth fossil ever found, discovered that these babies did indeed have a hump on the back. It has been suggested that young Mammoths were able to lay down fat and store it in their bodies, in a similar way to creatures like camels – an adaptation to living in a cold, harsh environment when food supplies were never guaranteed.

Marine reptiles are not left out from the new Papo 2012 collection. We had known about the introduction of a replica of the fearsome marine reptile Tylosaurus for some time, now we can put up a picture of this model, which will be available from February.
The New Tylosaurus Model from Papo
"Protuberance Lizard" a new replica from Papo
A number of genera of this type of marine reptile are known from the fossil record. The scaly skin on this replica could be Papo's way of highlighting the affinity this group of predators have with the Squamata (lizards and snakes). Tylosaurs are believed to be closely related to modern monitor lizards, although at over fourteen metres long (some species), these extinct creatures are much larger. It is apt for Papo to introduce a model of a Tylosaurus in 2012, as next year marks the 140th anniversary of the naming of this marine reptile. This model will work well with the existing Papo marine reptile model (Plesiosaurus) that was introduced to the range in 2009. It will be available in February.
Last but by no means least, comes the largest model that Papo have made in their "Dinosaures" range. In fact, this will be one of the largest models ever made by Papo, and indeed one of the biggest dinosaur models around. Papo are introducing their first ever Sauropod figure, and what an excellent model it looks to be.
Coming out in July 2012, Papo are introducing a model of Brachiosaurus.
The New Brachiosaurus Model from Papo (July 2012)
The new Heavyweight Champion!
The more traditional, elephantine colouring will contrast well with other Macronaria models due to be introduced next year. The Brachiosaur is depicted as a very heavy-set, powerful creature and this replica will make an excellent centrepiece for many a collector. It is due to be released in Summer 2012, just in time for the London Games, looks like we are going to need an Olympic-sized warehouse to store all these new models from Papo.

Although I agree with some of Manuel's comments, I must admit that I am not a fan of the Papo dino. range.
I know that Papo does have a considerable fan base but for myself I think that they are more in the "toy" market intended for children, rather than in the "model" market intended for adult collectors of dinosaurs.
I have very similar feelings about Schleich as well and having compared both these brands with Safari, Bullyland and CollectA I am completely convinced that the best brand for serious dino. collectors has got to be CollectA.
They are not perfect, especially some of the earlier sculpts., but overall they are much better all round and also seem to be improving every year.
I know where I would rather spend my money!

The two baby T. rex, the brown re-paint and the new running T. rex will all have articulated jaws (lower jaws that open and close).

collecta seriously? what are you guys agents from the collecta a website trying to promote your product? I just checked them out the figures are horrid looking, Papo is no doubt the essential preferred collectors choice for dinosaurs. Second would be schleich

Everyone is entitled to their opinion of course, at Everything Dinosaur we work very closely with a number of major manufacturers, including Papo and Collecta. The Collecta range has improved enormously over recent years and we have no hesitation recommending both Papo and Collecta. Some of the new models due out this year from Schleich have caused us some consternation, check out the feet on the new Triceratops figure or the "fairy/gosomer" wings on the Quetzalcoatlus re-paint. Interesting interpretations of the fossil record, perhaps these particular models have been influenced too much by the fantasy figure range made by Schleich.

Hi, this post is several months old, but i just read it and wanted to share my opinion (from a JP fan point of view) on the tyrannosaur models.
In the Jurassic Park films, male T-rex is green with blue stripes (The lost world and Jurassic Park III), whereas the female brown with darker stripes (Jurassic park, The lost world). Also though it cannot be seen properly in the film, the 'making of' book from the lost world states that the Male rex head was modified from the female, adding prominent bumps and ridges. So i dont think the green t-rex is a reference to King Kong's V-rex. The color is there to differenciate sex, not age. That's why i think there are green an brown baby rexes.
I hope that was of some help 🙂


Are you a college student? Did you just get your own car and your driving license? Are you prevented from driving around just because you do not have auto insurance in Pennsylvania? Have you tried applying for car insurance but got rejected because of your young age? Worry no more. Car insurance in Pennsylvania offers easy application and cheaper rates that you can afford. Continue reading this article for more information about this subject matter.
Many teenage people are frustrated with driving because of the fact that their car insurance application have been repeatedly denied simply because of their age. Most of the time, the people managing their application are applying obsolete stereotypes regarding their age. By having to face car insurance rejection one after another, these teenagers and college students who are very anxious to drive their own cars disregard state laws prohibiting driving without car insurance. By doing so, these teenagers and college students are faced with penalties once they are caught. Even if they are driving cautiously, once they are caught by law enforcers and traffic enforcers and they cannot provide adequate documentation which would prove the existence of their car insurance in PA, they may be asked to go to the police station to spend a night in jail or to pay fines which are too much expensive. The state does not recognize that having many teenagers violate their traffic laws is their own fault. By applying unreasonable standards in the insurance application of a teenager or a college student and disqualifying them just because of their age, many teenage people and college students are forced to violate the state law just to be able to drive their new car or just to be able to go to school with less difficulty than commuting on the subway or by the bus in a daily basis.
The state of Pennsylvania recognizes the state's responsibility to provide new and fairer car insurance application standards for teenagers and college students. It is assured that car insurance in Pennsylvania would never use old and inapplicable stereotypes in granting or denying a teenager's or a college student's car insurance application. It is guaranteed that a teenager or a college student would be granted or denied in his car insurance application based on his own merits and will never be based on factors that he can do nothing about such as his age.
More than that, the insurance system in Pennsylvania offers to teenagers and college students is of higher car insurance discounts and lower rates and with various insurance packages to choose from. By doing so, they are encouraging more and more teenagers and college students to apply for car insurance application. In this scenario, it can be seen that the state and the people it governs work hand in hand to promote better traffic environment for all.
Why wait until you reach an older age to apply for a car insurance? Type your zip code on the bar above the screen and start choosing your insurance package! Apply for auto insurance in Pennsylvania now!
In the United States of America, car insurance is of the most important thing in order for a person to be able to drive. If a person owns a car but does not have insurance, it would be useless. But no worries, affordable car insurance can now be availed. The auto insurance in Pennsylvania is an affordable insurance system that is available to all kinds of people.
As a general rule, car insurances are very expensive and are difficult to maintain. However, people are willing to pay expensive car insurance than be prohibited from driving on the streets. This is due to the fact that it is easier and more comfortable to travel in one's own private vehicle than to take the bus or the subway. It is easier to travel by private vehicle because the chances of getting robbed or mugged by criminals are highly unlikely. For most people, they are willing to sacrifice money for expensive car insurance in PA just to be comfortable and safe from outside forces while travelling.
However, an opportunity to be able to save money but also maintain one's car insurance is now available. The state of Pennsylvania offers lower insurance rates and higher discounts to anyone who applies for them. Comparing the car insurance rates in Pennsylvania, they are significantly lower than the rates offered by other states. More importantly, the insurance system in Pennsylvania takes into consideration the stage of life a person belongs to. Higher discounts are given to people who fall under a certain category such as when the car insurance applicant is a college student or a senior citizen. The insurance authorities in the state of Pennsylvania seek to offer insurance packages that are suitable to the life stage of people applying for them. They take into consideration not only the age bracket where one belongs to but also the applicant's financial capacity. They offer more discounts to people who can prove that they are indeed worthy of those discounts.
All in all, it can be said that car insurance in Pennsylvania is formulated based on what the society needs. It is very down to earth and aims to cater to the widest population range as much as possible. Moreover, the insurance authorities guarantee that while the insurance applicants are given many discounts and significantly lower rates, the quality of service would remain the same as if they are paying high rates.
Applying for car insurance will never be this beneficial to the applicant and these benefits are only available in Pennsylvania. Encode your zip code today and find out if there is an insurance package that is suitable for your life stage and most especially, suitable to your financial capacity. Avail of great discounts now and experience car insurance service like no other. Go on and compare the car insurance system in Pennsylvania to the other car insurance systems available in the country. You will find that nothing would beat the auto insurance in Pennsylvania in terms of their low rates, high discounts and quality service.

Top Five Most Compelling Making a Murderer Fan Theories!
Amanda Tullos January 16, 2016 No Comments 97 views 0 likes
Right now, "Murder is hot!" It's hard not to be bothered by the many cringe-worthy moments that occur during the successful Netflix docu-series Making a Murderer. The series showcases evidence that appears out of nowhere and also shines the spotlight on an interrogation where a developmentally disabled 16-year-old is harassed by veteran police detectives for hours on end. But equally disturbing is the overly excited Dateline reporter who makes light of the 2005 Teresa Halbach murder case with the sentiment that "Murder is hot!"
The series depicts the media frenzy that was rampant during DNA exoneree Steven Avery's (the focus of the series) second trial, and how the news media played a large role in the perception of Avery's guilt or innocence. The events that took place have prompted outrage from viewers around the world, as well as in-depth discussion on whether or not he was responsible for the murder of Teresa Halbach.
Fans have flocked to the web to dissect and share details surrounding the case, and some of the best theories reside on the sub-reddit aptly titled, Making a Murderer. Wicked Horror has compiled some of the most compelling fan theories on Reddit so you don't have to! Because trust us, once you fall down the Making a Murderer rabbit hole, you'll never find your way back out.
The Police Framed Him
The docs-series essentially depicts the Manitowoc Sheriff's Department as evil incarnate. They convicted Steven of a sexual assault and kept him in prison for 18 years, despite having evidence of his innocence. When faced with the possibility of having to pay out a $36 million dollar lawsuit, they seemingly had every reason to try and send Avery back to jail.
Due to the conflict of interest between the Manitowoc Sheriff's Department and Steven Avery, they should never have been allowed to investigate the Teresa Halbach case—but they were. Manitowoc police officers James Lenk and Andrew Colborn immediately focused on Steven as their prime suspect.
Lenk and Colborn found all of the incriminating evidence against Steven in the murder investigation. Avery's lawyers argued that Colborn found Teresa's car, before it was actually discovered in the Avery Salvage Yard, when he called in her license plate to dispatch. Also, Colborn signed off on Avery's 1985 blood sample evidence that may have been tampered with. Along with Colborn's evidence, Lenk had found Teresa's keys in Avery's bedroom—seven days into the search of his property.
The German Man Did It
In 2009, a blog post proposed an alternative theory to who killed Teresa Halbach. Reddit users found the theory, tracked down the individual involved, and did their best to flesh things out. All of their findings were documented in a lengthy post, which was subsequently deleted.
The post discussed a woman who reported her husband's strange activity during the time that Teresa was murdered. The husband—known as the German man—reportedly set things on fire, tried selling the woman a car similar to Halbach's, and told his wife that Halbach was dead upon viewing her missing poster. The woman also uncovered bloody women's underwear and clothing in their home.
According to the woman, the strange and incriminating activity was essentially brushed off by the police.
Ex-Boyfriend-Ryan Hillegas Did It
Despite his intimacy with the victim, former boyfriend Ryan Hillegas—who dated Teresa Halbach for five years—was never questioned by police about his whereabouts on the day that Halbach disappeared. In fact, he was never really considered a suspect in the case.
Hillegas stated to police that he saw Halbach the day before she disappeared on October 31, but he couldn't remember the time. When Halbach went missing, Hillegas and Halbach's roommate "guessed" the password to her wireless account and created a login to access her phone records. This raised a red flag for many, the defense even alluded to the idea that some of Halbach's voicemails had been deleted—something Hillegas easily could have done.
And it gets weirder: Halbach's coworker (Tom Pearce) claimed she was receiving annoying phone calls from an unknown person, weeks before her death. The (possibly) deleted voicemails could have answered the question as to who the mysterious caller actually was. Could that person have been Hillegas? We will probably never know.
Scott Tadych and Bobby Dassey Did It
Scott Tadych and Bobby Dassey had the means and knowledge to commit the crime. Both lived on the Avery property and were at or near the crime scene the day that the murder took place. Fans of the series believed that the pair's alibi was a contrived story to cover up something sinister. Steven Avery also suggested both Tadych and Dassey as possible suspects in a court appeal.
Tadych is married to Barb Janda—Brendan Dassey's mother (Steven Avery's sister)—and they lived on the Avery property. It was Barb's car that Halbach was coming to photograph for Auto Trader Magazine. It is quite possible that Tadych was aware of this and knew that Halbach would be on their property that day.
It struck many viewers as odd that Tadych and Bobby were each other's only alibi for the day, and that they were never seriously considered to be suspects by the police. Both men claimed they did see Halbach on Steven Avery's property and corroborated the other's story; however, a bus driver proved their timeline to be false when she stated that she saw Halbach photographing the van during one of her routine bus stops.
To make things stranger, a co-worker claimed that Tadych tried to sell him a .22 caliber rifle shortly after the murder—the type of weapon believed to have killed Halbach. And, a co-worker reported that Tadych had blood on his clothes. Tadych also has a history of violence against women—he violently attacked a woman in 2002.
But, Tadych wasn't the only suspicious one following the Halbach murder. Bobby had scratches on his back during the time that Halbach went missing and was found dead. A physician examination suggested that the scratches were recent at the time. Bobby claimed that they were from a puppy.
Steven Avery's Brothers Did It
Steven Avery isn't the only so-called bad apple in the Avery family. His brothers, Charles and Earl, have a history of violence and questionable behavior towards women. After learning of their criminal past—and their inclusion as possible suspects in Steven Avery's 2007 court appeal—many fans believe that one of his brothers may have committed the crime.
Charles sexually assaulted an ex-wife in 1999, and he also stalked several female customers who frequented the Avery Salvage yard. One of the women he allegedly bothered was Jodie Stachowski—Steven Avery's ex-girlfriend. She reportedly told a fellow inmate (during her incarceration) of how fearful she was of Charles because of a time she awoke to him standing in her residence with a shotgun. He was apparently mad that she was dating Steven.
Earl isn't a great catch either. In 1995, he was charged with sexually assaulting his two daughters. And if that wasn't enough, he often rode around the Avery property in a golf cart; the same golf cart that cadaver dogs alerted police to when searching for Halbach's remains. Oh, and when the police came to his property for a DNA sample on November 9, 2005, he hid from them.
Please keep in mind that these are all theories. We don't know what happened, but it's hard not to speculate after the police did such a shitty job investigating the crime. Since the documentary's release lawyer Kathleen Zellner, who has helped in the release and exoneration of 17 men in wrongful conviction cases, has taken on Steven Avery's case. He recently filed an appeal for a new trial.
