Drug prohibition is the "radical" policy, not legal regulation
Why drug prohibition is the "radical" policy, not legal regulation
(Photo credit: Peter Kim | National Day of Action | Feb. 20, 2018)
Note: this is an extended version of an op-ed that appeared in the Vancouver Sun, Mar. 29, 2018.
This April, the federal Liberal Party will consider a policy resolution that could result in the decriminalization of low-level drug possession across Canada. It's a measure that people who use drugs, their allies, medical professionals, and increasingly, members of government have long been pushing for. But as support for decriminalization reaches an historic high, resistance has grown more fierce from Conservatives and other prohibitionists who argue that a tough-on-crime agenda is the only answer to an opioid crisis that continues to kill thousands across the country.
The latter position ignores both the harms of prohibition and the benefits of a new regulatory approach. Whereas the presumption is that decriminalization or legal regulation makes a radical 'wild west' of the drug market, the opposite is in fact true: Under absolute prohibition we relinquish control over every echelon of the drug chain to the black market, which history has shown, no amount of law enforcement can get under control.

To clear up any misunderstanding, let's talk about drug policy reform, what works, and what doesn't:
As contemplated by the Liberal Party, decriminalization refers only to the removal of criminal penalties for the simple possession of illicit drugs. It does not remove sanctions for all drug-related offences, as those besides possession will still fall under the existing criminal regime.
Practically speaking, decriminalization means people who possess drugs for personal use will no longer be forced to use in secret, under fear of arrest. It means they will be afforded a basic degree of legal protection when accessing harm reduction services, medical assistance, or police services. From a harm reduction perspective, decriminalization is an imperative first step. With a toxic drug supply and mounting death toll, now is not the time to be driving drug use further underground.
In Canada we legally regulate many substances (including alcohol and tobacco) so that government can control who accesses them, how, and when. Legal regulation is not to be confused with absolute legalization. The former refers to a complex set of laws that regulate substances with a view to managing the personal and public health risks associated with use. Different substances warrant different regulatory structures, depending on affiliated harms and evidence of efficacy. For opioids, regulation can be rigorous and comprehensive to ensure strict quality control and to minimize problematic use.
Under legal regulation, certain activities can still be prohibited, including advertising, underage sales, and the supply of exceptionally high-risk drug preparations. Far from amounting to a loss of control, legal regulation allows for significantly more precise and tailored oversight than prohibition, under which control is transferred to organized crime. Unsurprisingly, the legalization of alcohol and tobacco cut down rates of access, problematic use, and health-related harms.

Prohibitionists endorse a strict criminal regime with an aim to eliminate supply, and in turn, reduce demand. Examples of prohibitionist measures include strengthening the powers of border guards to search packages and increasing penalties for fentanyl dealers. Notably, both such measures have recently been implemented in Canada.

Despite these stated aims, drug production, distribution, availability, problematic use (including use by young people), and drug-related crimes and health harms have all risen under prohibition. Why? Because measures targeting supply ignore the fact that drug markets are driven by demand—or the unshakeable reality that people will always use drugs for any number of legitimate reasons.
The striking number of overdose deaths in 2017 alone have taught us, devastatingly, that drug use occurs all the time, irrespective of neighbourhood or demographic. This demand fuels the illicit drug market, the sheer lucrativeness of which means that for every dealer imprisoned, another is ready to take his place.

The fact of unceasing demand also disproves the argument that prohibition reduces drug use. Consider the thousands of Canadians who, when cut off of opioid pain prescriptions in recent years, did not miraculously stop needing or using opioids. Given the 'options' of unbearable pain and purchasing opioids from the illicit market, many had no choice but to resort to the black market. Amidst a fentanyl-saturated supply, this is how we sentence people to death.

Legally regulating drugs is neither radical nor extreme. Regulating dangerous substances for which there is ongoing supply and demand is the only logical way forward. By contrast, clinging to a regime that has so utterly failed is radical. Insisting on morals-based laws and policies contrary to science and evidence is illogical and wrong. As the death toll climbs to four per day in British Columbia and eight per day across Canada, the blood that flows from our drug laws and policies is surely on our hands.

120 Years of Sororities at Illinois
By Leanna Barcelona | Published: October 27, 2015
Around this time of year, 120 years ago, the first sororities (womens fraternities as they were known as at the time) were initiated at the University of Illinois. There is some controversy over which organization was the very first, based on charter approvals and initiation dates. In any event, Pi Beta Phi initiated nine charter members in the Zeta chapter at the university of Illinois. Kappa Alpha Theta, whose charter dates October 24, 1895, initiated thirteen members on November 9, 1895. Both of these chapters have formally written histories housed here in our archives.
Pi Beta Phi Fraternity for Women, 1896
Amelia Alpiner Stern, a charter member of Pi Beta Phi, is the author of their history. In the paper, she wrote:
Soon after the university opened in the fall of '94 a buzz was heard wherever groups of girls gathered and the air became charged with the idea of organizing purely social local groups which could later petition for membership in some national sorority…By the spring of 1895 the two groups had definitely outlined their purposes and one petitioned Pi Beta Phi and the other Kappa Alpha Theta.[1]
Petition for Illinois Zeta Chapter of Pi Beta Phi 1895-1938
The original charter members of the Zeta chapter of Pi Beta Phi were Amelia Alpiner (Stern) herself, Blanch Lindsay (Woods), Laura Busey (Fulton), Ann Montgomery (Bahnsen), Leila White, Nellie Besore (Sears), Edith Yeomans, Edith Weaver (Gihuley), and Vivian Monier (Morrissey). These women met at the houses of faculty wives for gatherings until formal housing was established later on. Faculty wives served as "sponsors" to the sorority women, and other established chapters within the National Organization also aided the charter members. Amelia notes that there were "no scholastic requirements: complete registration and good family background being the only prerequisites for membership."[2] At the time, there was no Dean of Women and no one had jurisdiction over the sorority members. When the number of women enrolled on campus exceeded 1000 in 1897, the university decided regulation was needed. Violet DeLille Jayne was added to the Faculty as the first Dean of Women.[3] Amelia went on to be the first president of the University of Illinois Mothers Association in 1923.
Kappa Alpha Theta, c. 1895, from the 1897 Illio
In another history, Sabra S. Reece compiled stories from the charter members of Kappa Alpha Theta in 1966. In this history, she writes a similar story as Amelia Alpiner Stern, noting that there was a desire for an organized women's social group and one of the two groups petitioned Kappa Alpha Theta to be chartered at Illinois. The charter, dated October 24, 1895, was the first to be granted at the University of Illinois but the initiation did not occur until November 9, 1895, to accommodate women traveling to carry out the ceremony. Sabra Reece quotes one of the charter members on this matter in the history:
Having somehow learned of these plans, another group of girls hastened with a petition to Pi Beta Phi, secured a prompt and favorable reply just after the date of the Theta charter, and held their initiation at once. Much has been made through the years of the fact that Pi Beta Phi was the first sorority at the University of Illinois. [Reba Wharton] said "The Pi Phis needn't be so cocky about being the oldest chapter on campus. Our group was organized, but not initiated first. As I remember they were initiated only a few days before our initiation, but a little rivalry is good for all for us.[4]
Fire at the Kappa Alpha Theta Sorority house, November 19, 1914
There were thirteen charter members of the Delta chapter in total initiated in the home of Marion Wright on that November day: Marion Wright herself, Bertha Pillsbury, Isobel and Mary Nobel (the four initial petitioners) and Louise Jones, Blanche Herrick, Ruth Raymond, Mary Greene, Ida Conn, Mabel Zilly, Marion Thompson, Georgia Bennett, and Reba Wharton. Kappa Alpha Theta itself was the first Greek letter fraternity known among women, organized in the 1870s.[5]
Kappa Kappa Gamma was chartered in the Spring of 1898 and Alpha Chi Omega and Chi Omega followed suit in the fall of 1899.[6] Today, the sorority community at the University of Illinois has grown to include 19 National Panhellenic Conference chapters and several associate chapters.

Home > Sexual Assault > General Information > What is Sexual Assault? > Theories of Sexual Assault > Sexual Assault and the Media
Although sexual assault is currently understood as an act of violence which reflects the unequal power between men and women, many theorists also emphasize cultural and social factors that contribute to a society that condones sexual assault and violence against women. For example, many argue that sexual assault is connected to the desensitization that occurs through the portrayal of violence in the media and popular culture. A study showed that fifty-two men experienced a number of changes after being exposed to one extremely violent film a day for five days. After this exposure, men found the violence less anxiety-provoking and depressing; they evaluated the injury experienced by female victims of sexual assault as less significant; and were less able to emphathize with real victims. Images of masculinity and femininity in the media also encourage the association of masculinity with violence, dominance and power. From: Myriam Miedzian, How Rape is Encouraged in American Boys, in Transforming a Rape Culture 155, 157 (Emilie Buchwald et al. eds., 1993).
Theorists have also argued that the media contributes to the perpetuation of sexual assault because it commodifies women's bodies. One theorists argues that "[w]e live in a culture that rarely discusses sex as anything other than a commodity. . . . Instead, youths, particularly young men, are bombarded by a culture that sexualizes commodities and commodifies women's sexuality." The result of this is twofold: First, commodification of women's sexuality teaches that sex is something to be consumed and to which men are entitled. Second, because sex is something that can be bought and sold, taking it by force is theft, not a violation. "[P]recisely because men can and do pay for sex, taking it without consent becomes less morally reprehensible than other violent crimes." From: Katharine K. Baker, Once a Rapist? Motivational Evidence and Relevancy in Rape Law, 110 Harv. L. Rev. 563 (1997), excerpts available from the Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard Law School.
In 2006, a website entitled Take Back the News was launched to work to raise public awareness about sexual assault, in order to foster greater public dialogue and greater public responsibility. The website includes the formation of a Media Response Project, a streamlined system to track and archive media articles regarding rape and to contact editors and reporters regarding concerns on how rape is misrepresented or underrepresented in the media.
The 2008 United Nations expert group meeting on "Good practices in legislation on violence against women" reported that "[t]raining journalists and other media personnel on women's human rights and the root causes of violence against women may influence the way in which the issue is reported and thereby influence societal attitudes." The expert group recommended that legislation encourage the sensitization of media personnel. From: "Good practices in legislation on violence against women," p. 33.

Q: Rename .json file node.js I want to rename a .json file in node.js this file is dynamically generated and located in the folder /export. the file will always start with contentful-export-XXX.json The XXX could be different on the file, and have random numbers and letters in its place. It is not possible to know the full file name before hand. Therefore I would like to rename the file to contentful-export.json instead of contentful-export-XXX.json. I hope this is clear.
Therefore, I believe that I would need to get the file name from the folder export and then insert this into a fs.rename() but I am unsure how to do this.

A: You can use a regular expression (regex). I think this will match:
/contentful-export-[a-z]*[A-Z]*[0-9]*.json/g
So if you get a list of your files, and see which files matches this regex, you can rename it.
` fs.readdir(path, function(err, items) {
    for (var i=0; i<items.length; i++) {
      if(item[i].match(/contentful-export-[a-z]*[A-Z]*[0-9]*.json/g){
         //do the rename
      }
    }
  }); `

I haven't test it, but should be something like that

A: Could probably use fs.readdir to get the list of files inside of your export dir and then rename the file with fs.rename
ex.
fs.readdir('/export', function(error, list) {
    if (error) throw error;

    list.forEach(function(file) {
        if (file.includes('contentful-export-') {
            fs.rename('/export/' + file, '/export/contentful-export.json')
        })
    });
});

Burkina Faso midfielder Djakaridja Kone has warned his team mates to "concentrate" and "continue working" if they want to qualify for the quarter-finals of the Africa Cup of Nations.
The Stallions lead the group thanks to a 4-0 win over Ethiopia over on Friday, coupled with Nigeria and Zambia's failure to register a win in their first two games in Nelspruit.
But Kone, who scored their third goal against the Waliyas, insists they still have much to do before a place in the last eight is secure.
"I believe in our team - we have great players and now we have confidence," he told BBC Sport.
"[But] we have to concentrate - we have to prepare well for the game against Zambia."
A win or a draw in Nelspruit in that final group game will be enough for the Burkinabes to make it through.
Kone praised Friday's other goalscorers, Jonathan Pitroipa and Alain Traore, who was on target twice two and is is the top scorer in South Africa 2013 so far, with three goals from two games.
"Alain is a very good player - he's very good for the team, and as a midfielder I like to work with a player like Alain [up front]," he said.
Meanwhile Ethiopia, who were destroyed by Burkina Faso despite the Stallions being down to 10 men for much of the game, are counting the cost of a bitter defeat which leaves them facing an early exit from their first Nations Cup in 31 years.
"This is a learning situation for our squad," the president of the Ethiopian Football Federation, Salihu Gebremariam said.
"We learned a lot and we'll improve for the next games. We have to play to our best [in the next game against Nigeria] - and we shall improve."

AFTER THE EARTH'S VIOLENT SWAY
The tangible and intangible legacies of a natural disaster
Epicentre to Aftermath: Political, social and cultural impacts of earthquakes in South Asia
6th Aug, 2018 1,463 views ;0 1.0
Conference 10-11th January 2019 at SOAS University of London
The immediate effects of earthquakes are visible: lost lives, displaced people, destroyed houses and shattered cultural heritage sites. Take a longer view, however, and earthquakes are often associated with profound political and social transformation. Such change may be given momentum by the shock of the disaster, the desire to reform ways of governing and being governed that could not withstand the shock, and by the arrival of new ideas about how things should be done.
The SOAS-led 'Sway' project [https://sway.soscbaha.org/] has been studying the impacts of the 2015 Gorkha earthquake and earlier earthquakes in Nepal with a view to understand social and political change, to document efforts to reclaim and reinvent material culture, and to explore archives relating to previous disasters. The work of this project will be one of the focal points of this conference.
Additionally, the conference would also welcome papers that consider the broader questions raised by earthquake research in South Asia. Earthquakes in Gujarat-Sind (1819), Assam (1897), Nepal-Bihar (1934), Quetta, Baluchistan (1935), Assam-Tibet (1950), Latur, Maharashtra (1993), Kutch, Gujarat (2001) and Kashmir (2005) often brought with them significant shifts in social and political landscapes. Across South Asia, earthquakes have provided moments of rupture through which new models of governance, planning and urban form have been introduced. Patterns of blame, retribution and sanction may shift as the certainties of nature, society and the state are called into question by shock and reconstruction. We will think comparatively across earthquakes to ask questions of the related spheres of humanitarianism, bureaucracy, philosophy and affect:
Humanitarianism: Who is responsible? Who comes to the aid of those inhabiting the ruins and why? What do they hope to achieve? What forms have earthquake humanitarianism taken? What have they achieved?
Bureaucracy: Earthquakes encourage new legislation, codes and new procedures. What shape have these taken? To what end? How have earthquakes been understood within new bureaucracies? How has bureaucracy refashioned citizenship or urban form?
Philosophy: In South Asia, what have earthquakes made people think about religion, nature, government and relations between one another? How do earthquakes influence the direction or shape of societies?
Affect and Memory: What forms of social, political and heritage activism have arisen from earthquakes in South Asia? What artistic and literary responses have there been? How have earthquakes been remembered and memorialised? What has their impact been upon mental health?
The conference will be publication-driven with the intention of collecting state of the art research on earthquakes in South Asia within a comparative and inter-disciplinary frame.
We seek contributions from scholars who have taken a longer-term and field- or archive-based approach to understanding earthquakes in the region.
If you would like to contribute to these discussions, please submit a 300-word abstract and a one-page CV/biodata by 31 August 2018 to Sunil Pun: ssai@soas.ac.uk
Selected participants will be requested to produce a paper of 4000-5000 words to be pre-circulated in advance of the conference. Limited travel and accommodation assistance is available. We look forward to hearing from you.
Convenors: Michael Hutt, Stefanie Lotter, Michele Serafini and Edward Simpson
Nepal Conversation S1 Episode 4: Professor Michael Hutt talks about the earthquake and its aftermath, the politics of disaster, and the current COVID-19 crisis.
SWAY and ELMNR jointly organised a panel at the Kathmandu conference of Nepali and Himalayan Studies in July 2019.
Sway Project team at 4th Northern European Emergencies and Disaster Studies conference in Uppsala, Sweden on 10 June, 2019.
This project will document and analyse the cultural and political impacts of Nepal's 2015 earthquakes. The physical impact of a natural disaster such as a major earthquake is immediately visible: lost lives, displaced people, destroyed houses and a shattered cultural heritage. However, the longer-term impact and legacy of such an event is less apparent.
The project is structured along three distinct but inter-related themes. It will examine public discourse to understand social and political change; it will study efforts to reclaim and reinvent material culture; and it will study archival material to identify the permanent marks left by previous disasters.

The now Brooklyn resident was raised in Montgomery by two Nigerian immigrants, and this upbringing instilled in her a deep ambition and sense of discipline to achieve all that she sets out to accomplish. After graduating from Princeton in 2006 with a degree in Comparative Politics and Political Theory, she spent a fellowship in Uganda writing for a local newspaper before eventually going on to do reporting in East Africa, Mexico and Lagos, Nigeria. Okeowo, 33, has spent the last 10 years of her journalism career telling the stories of people who, she says, would otherwise go unnoticed, and exposing abuses of power to help protect vulnerable communities. The depth and breadth of her roots within the diaspora are integral to the work she produces both online and in print.
Beyond journalism, Okeowo is an accomplished author who published her first book, A Moonless, Starless Sky: Ordinary Women and Men Fighting Extremism in Africa, last year to much acclaim. While she doesn't harp on the rigid idea of setting long-term goals, her focus going forward will be nestled in various long-term reporting and screenwriting projects. Ask Okeowo what makes a powerful woman and she will tell you this: such a woman is unafraid to go after what she wants, and uses her intelligence and talent to make some kind of meaningful impact, ideally for the good of others. She personifies this very power, and harnesses it to reach back to others as she climbs. "In the end, all African women have is each other," she says. "So we have to support each other and lift each other up. We're the future, after all."

The newest Russian search engine Sputnik was launched in spring 2014 by state-owned telecommunication company Rostelecom. According to the creators of the search engines, Sputnik's search algorithm is oriented towards providing users with "social rather than commercial services", like finding medicines in the nearby pharmacy or times available in local movie theatres. Sputnik is Rostelecom's attempt to keep up with the growing Internet usage in Russia as well as to uncover potential for new revenue streams.
The search engine did not make any sizeable monetization efforts until last week, when Sputnik became a part of Yandex Advertising Network (YAN).
According to Sputnik's Director of Communications, they are testing PPC ads as a new source of monetization [in Russian]. Before that, Sputnik also tried to provide payment services for utility bills, which did not prove to be very profitable.
At first I got really excited about this – an additional source of keyword-targeted search-based inventory, and a big one (monthly audience of Sputnik currently reaches 3 million, and daily – 100 000 users)! However, after some testing I noticed that Yandex.Direct ads only appear on Sputnik's content pages, and not on search.
All targeting options of Yandex Advertising Network are available on Sputnik – from keyword targeting to retargeting – which basically means that Sputnik is treated just like any other placement in Yandex.Direct display campaigns.
YAN brings together thousands of sites with total audience of more than 73 million people per month. Among the major participants in the network – Mail.ru Group, Rambler & Co, RBC as well as Skype and Livejournal.

Local business representatives from Western and Central Uganda decried what they called unfair competition and infiltration of fake products in the market saying these have reduced on their profits and business growth.
The unfair competition they say is from substandard goods imported mainly from India and China. These range from electronics to agro inputs, which include fertilizers, seeds and pesticides.
This renewed outcry was made during the Economic Policy Research Centre (EPRC) Business Climate Index (BCI) dissemination held on May 3, 2018 in Mbarara for Western Uganda and on May 9, 2018 in Kayunga for Central Uganda.
Brian Sserunjogi a Research Fellow at EPRC who shared the BCI finding for the central region in Kayunga confirmed that competition from substandard goods from China and India is a key challenge perturbing local business owners in addition to high costs of electricity and macro economic instability.
The acting District Commercial Officer for Kayunga, Mr. Charles Yiga acknowledged that inferior goods are flooding Ugandan markets. He accused some individuals working with Uganda National Bureau of Standards (UNBS) of colluding with smugglers and dealers of fake goods.
Yiga also decried the poor quality of inputs distributed to local farmers for example seeds, saying this will worsen the ailments affecting the agriculture sector.
Relatedly Kiiza Abutalib, the Uganda National Chamber of Commerce and Industry (UNCCI) official based in Kayunga said that at times confiscated fake products are resold.
"They take back these goods after capturing them and sell," he said.
EPRC could not independently verify these assertions.
Regarding sector performance, Sserunjoji noted that agriculture is performing well due to the rebound of rains. This is followed by the service sector, while the manufacturing sector is stifled. "The manufacturing sector has shown a decline due to an increase in the cost of doing business for instance the rise in fuel prices," he said.
While presenting the Western Uganda BCI findings, Paul Lakuma, a Research Fellow at EPRC noted that the service sector (Salons, entertainment, hotels, health) was operating below potential throughout the last 2017 quarter.
In an interview with NBS Television, Lakuma further explained that the manufacturing sector is suffering from oil shocks arising from prolonged 2017 Kenya's political process.
He said much as businesses are trying to realign themselves, policy pronouncements such as the proposed taxation on SACCOs could slide the business community into an abyss.
Lakuma called for stabilization and reduction in the cost of power and government investment in technologies that contain the effects of variability of weather.
Tumusiime Bamuturaki, the Mbarara Distrcit chairperson warned the business community against speculation and exaggeration. "Before you engage in any field first have knowledge," he said promising to use EPRC research to guide local government support on socio economic projects.

Gov. Cuomo Signs Bill To End Religious Exemptions For Vaccinations
ALBANY (WCBS 880) — Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Thursday signed new legislation ending religious exemptions for vaccinations in New York State.
The bill quickly passed through the state Assembly and Senate Thursday afternoon. Gov. Cuomo signed it into law soon after saying, "While I understand and respect freedom of religion, our first job is to protect the public health."
As WCBS 880's Sean Adams reported, there's no doctrine among the major religions of the world that prohibits vaccinations. However, since measles reemerged in Orthodox Jewish communities in Rockland County and Brooklyn, anti-vaxxers have raised objections to mandatory inoculations.
Local lawmakers say those groups might have a moral, philosophical or scientific objection, but this isn't about faith.
In Rockland County, rabbis have urged people to get vaccinated.
Lawmakers are poised to put an end to the religious exemption for vaccinations, saying it's antiquated.
Gov. Cuomo had previously said he supported eliminating the exemption in order to "protect the public health."
"I understand freedom of religion. We all do. We respect it. I've heard the anti-vaxxers theory, but I believe both are overwhelmed by the public health risk," Cuomo said. "The responsibility for the government of the State of New York is yes to protect the constitutional rights of individuals but it is also to protect the public health."
Once lawmakers pass this measure and the governor signs it, the only exemption would be for a medical reason that could harm a child.
Federal health officials have said the number of measles cases in 2019 have surpassed the count for all of 2018.
Measles is a highly contagious disease that is spread through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. Symptoms include a cough, runny nose, inflamed eyes, sore throat, fever, and a red, blotchy skin rash.
About 1 child out of every 1,000 who becomes infected with measles will develop encephalitis, which causes swelling of the brain. As many as 1 out of every 20 children with measles will develop pneumonia, which can be deadly, according to the CDC.

List Rules Vote up the creepiest episodes to perpetually haunt your dreams.
Courage the Cowardly Dog is a supposed children's show that aired on Cartoon Network from 1999 to 2002. The story revolves around a small, perpetually terrified dog named Courage who fights off constant waves of abnormal creatures threatening the well-being of his owners, Eustace and Muriel Bagge. Despite the show's cutesy animation, every episode is a master class in creating nightmare fuel.
There are endless unsettling moments in Courage the Cowardly Dog. The creepiest episodes involve old-world abominations that seem out of place in the show's modern setting. If you live in rural Kansas, you might be wary of bears and tornadoes, but have you ever stopped to consider the impending threat of a zombie film director?
After two cats steal a stone slab from the tomb of Egyptian pharaoh Ramses, his ghost materializes and threatens them with a curse. Courage witnesses the cats abandoning the slab and running for the hills.
It's not long before Eustace discovers the invaluable slab, but as he attempts to sell it to the highest bidder, the ghost of Ramses returns and rains three plagues down on the Bagges. In one of the all-time creepiest moments from the series, a spooky Ramses threatens Eustace, but it's not enough to scare off the old man.
Does this keep you up at night?
Aside from how Courage doesn't immediately question the appearance of a decrepit teacher who's obsessed with perfection, the episode's most unsettling moment comes when the Perfectionist transforms into a claymation nightmare. His distorted voice doesn't help matters at all.
Anyone who uses a poem as an introduction is strange, but Muriel's nephew, Fred, takes it further by thinking exclusively in rhymed verse. After he abruptly arrives at their home in Nowhere, KS, Fred's visit takes a menacing turn when he reveals his secret penchant for shaving people bald.
This episode has everything: a disembodied voice, killer food, and a flood. The chills don't stop when the source of the voice finally appears onscreen. If you're freaked out by the idea of a gargantuan, strangely photorealistic floating head, then you should skip this one.

A day to honor those who served
The Steelers join the rest of the country honoring those who have served on Veterans Day, saluting the men and women who have given unselfishly and sacrificed so much for our country.
Throughout the month of November, and as a part of the Salute to Service initiative, the team has celebrated those who served in many ways.
Retired United States Army Sergeant First Class Nelson E. Lowes was a special guest of the team at Monday night's game against the Bears at Heinz Field.
Lowes was selected as the Steelers Fan of the Year, a program done in conjunction with the NFL where 32 fans are being selected league wide for their support of their team.
Lowes, who is originally from Johnstown, Pa., served 22 years of active duty, including with the 101st Airborne during the Vietnam War.
Having a love of football in his heart, especially for the Steelers during the tough times in the 1950s and 1960s, he wanted to be involved with the game during his time in the Army. While stationed in Germany he volunteered during his off time to coach youth football, picking up on something he started to do while he was stationed at Ft. Meade, Maryland, when he was the director of youth athletics, coaching the Ft. Meade Cougars in Pop Warner football. He also volunteered to coach at Forestville High School, where his team won a Maryland state championship.
He didn't stop giving back after his service ended. He spent an additional 20 years teaching Junior ROTC in Prince George County schools in Maryland, while continuing to coach. He returned home to Pennsylvania, teaching the Junior ROTC program at Valley High School in New Kensington until 2006.
Lowes also continued to serve as VFW State Surgeon, where he was the chairman of the Health Committee and promoted and implemented programs for his community and state. He traveled to Washington, D.C. twice a year to advocate for Pennsylvania veterans with members of Congress, and also visited area VA Hospitals to ensure veterans were receiving the best care possible.
And while he gave so much of his time to the military and veterans, he also gave his time to his family, and raised his four kids to be proud Steelers fans. And that's why Rocky Bleier, a Vietnam Veteran himself, shared the news with Lowes that he won the honor and an all-expense paid trip for two to see the Steelers play the Bears and do the Terrible Towel Twirl along with Bleier and Bret Michaels.
"I was born into being a Steelers fan," said Lowes, who got emotional when he learned he won the honor. "I fell in love with it when I started watching football as a youngster and I watch the Steelers for the last 65 years. I remember all of the Super Bowls."
He then told Bleier, "When I found out you were a Vietnam Veteran, you became my favorite player."
Tight end Eric Ebron surprised 10 veterans who are part of the Veterans Place Minority Veteran Program with banners that honored their service, as well as tickets for the Steelers-Bears game.
The group received their banners, which hung on Art Rooney Avenue on Monday night, and tickets during a surprise visit by Ebron at Heinz Field.
"I want to say personally, and for our Steelers organization, staff and team, I want to say thank you," said Ebron. "I have a few family members that have served. My dad was a Marine. My grandfather was also. My grandfather served in three wars. Crazy to our family. His nickname was Lucky, obviously. He was a huge staple in our family. When we describe him, if they have Peyton Manning outside of Lucas Oil (Stadium), we would have our grandfather outside. That's who helped support us.
"On behalf of us, the Rooney family, the Steelers organization, we're going to give all of you a banner with your name on it outside on Art Rooney Avenue. It's showing the support for what you did for us. Then when you come to the game on Monday night, you can go see it."
Ebron spent time talking to the veterans, posing for pictures, and just thanking them for all they have done for our country.
"This was a no brainer," said Ebron. "Being a part of this event, it being a part of my family, it's easy for me to do. It makes total sense. I am luckier to be in their presence than they are in mine. I am lucky to get to see them. I am thankful to be able to talk to them and them to be home with their families."
The Steelers had other events as a part of Salute to Service, an initiative that Ebron enjoys.
"I think it's important the same way we make all the cancers important (during Crucial Catch month)," said Ebron. "It's important to understand there are people out there fighting every day, protecting us in some way, shape, form or fashion. I think that is important.
"The fact that we acknowledge it to show we care. I am happy the NFL has it as a part of their agenda."

Covering 99% of the global serviced office market, Instant Offices is the world's largest office broking service dedicated to finding the ideal flexible workspace for clients, wherever their business is going.
Instant Offices asked us to take their performance to the next level by driving an additional 20% in revenue. This was a huge challenge, especially since we already had front-page rankings for 90% of the top 1000 cities across the globe.
We took the challenge head-on by focusing on new target audiences, developing custom software to analyse data and launching a creative multi-layered content and PR campaign. At the base of our strategy, we analysed over 250 enquiries and mapped them to job titles, and segmented these into two main groups of people looking for office space – entrepreneurs and office managers.
To effectively target these diverse groups with content that would engage them while driving links from key publications, we took a two-pronged approach and started creating content that was statistical and data-led, as well as content that was more lifestyle orientated.
To ensure Instant had access to data that was statistically significant enough to truly own a story, we developed software that analysed the UK Companies House open source database. This enabled us to identify developing trends and overlay them with other data sources. A good example of this approach was our 'Most Entrepreneurial City in the UK' content which overlaid Companies House data with census data to determine the entrepreneurial index of every major city in the UK.
We brainstormed the most common issues within an office, from pay and culture to working conditions, and developed a stream of content to target our other audience. One of the most successful pieces from this was 'How Much Should You Be Earning at Your Age' which was featured in Marie Claire, Cosmopolitan, the Mirror, the Sun and MSN.
Between August 2016 & 2017 we managed to smash all targets and exceed every single goal set. SEO traffic went up 51%, enquiries up 27% and revenue up 27% Year on Year.

Chapter 153: Everyone yields to him while he yields to no one Original and most updated translations are from volare. If read elsewhere, this chapter has been stolen. Please stop supporting theft.
Ning Xiaoyao was so preoccupied with dancing amongst the pickle jars that she'd long forgotten to wonder why they were filled with treasure in the first place.
The Old Madame's ancestors had earned military merit from suppressing rebellions in the past. She'd grown up desperately poor with a scholarly father until he gave up the brush in favor of the sword and earned his own fief and peerage. During her days of poverty, she had become an expert in pickling all sorts of vegetables. It was a habit she kept up even after her clan grew prosperous and she married into the rich and powerful Xie Clan. Anyone in the clan who was lucky enough to try some of Old Madame Xie's personally pickled vegetables would be honored by the favor.
Grand Preceptor Xie couldn't hold back the mouthful of blood that welled up and trickled out past his lips. His vision finally grew dark as he lost consciousness. Lady Wang shrieked in alarm once again as the Xie Estate plunged into a new wave of chaos.
The servant woman in question had been under investigation when Grand Preceptor Xie sent off the pickle jars. When she learned the truth from a random pageboy, she found herself physically paralyzed on the ground. How could there be such a coincidence?
Ning Xiaoyao sat on the ground in Supreme Splendor Hall as she personally took the various treasures out of the pickle jars. Smiling faces surrounded her on all sides at their good fortune. Originally, they were even planning to flee to Anyuan, yet now there was no need. Moreover, their emperor had even struck it rich and brought back 20 carts' worth of rice and flour. Lou Zigui sat next to Ning Xiaoyao, finding the entire scene inconceivable. Today had passed too much like a dream, so he needed time to adjust to reality.
Shadowgale replied, "Your Majesty, you still want to make porridge for them, after all that happened?" When he recalled all the refugees had lawlessly barged into the palace and made their demands, he could only see them as a pack of wolves!
Shadowgale thought His Majesty's words made sense after all.
"We didn't suffer any losses," Ning Xiaoyao wagged a finger as she summed things up.
Ning Xiaoyao puffed up her cheeks. Anyone who didn't let her count her treasure now was her enemy!
"Forget it, I'll take a trip over," Ning Xiaoyao carefully set down the jade ornament in her hands and stood up. "I still want their soldiers." Money and men were both important, ah.
"What kind of retaliation?" Ning Xiaoyao asked, curious.
Ning Xiaoyao was silent. Why hadn't I been able to decipher Grand Preceptor Xie's sinister intentions?
"What is it?" Lou Zigui asked.
"How come I couldn't tell?" Ning Xiaoyao wore a sour face. What could Supreme Commander Lou say to that? If he said she was foolish or stupid, the girl would only feel hurt.
After they reached the doorway of the room holding the seven southern officers, Lou Zigui purposely asked Ning Xiaoyao a question. "Do you know what to say?" If not, I can teach her.
Ning Xiaoyao nodded. She'd thought it all out. "I know. I'm an expert at negotiating." As a girl who knew how to charm others, she was the token mascot of the army in her previous world. Nobody had disliked her there.
Lou Zigui glanced at the man's face. It was already surprising to him that the man was still alive, but now that his face was fully recovered, he was nothing short of stupefied. "You had the antidote?" he asked Ning Xiaoyao. Even he only had the poison on hand.
Ning Xiaoyao replied, "There's no need for that." All she had to do was use a bit of her powers. Who needed antidotes? Still, how was she supposed to explain that?
"Did you force out the poison with your inner energy?" Lou Zigui had thought up an answer in her place. He recalled how Ning Xiaoyao had placed her hand against the man's face back at the Grand Preceptor's estate.
"Ah? Ah," Ning Xiaoyao randomly nodded her head. Inner energy works. As long as he doesn't accuse me of using demon magic.
The officer in question only looked at Ning Xiaoyao with dead eyes, but there was a hint of life in them. In any case, it was a gaze that told a tale in Ning Xiaoyao's view.
"Speak," Lou Zigui said coldly.
Ning Xiaoyao arched a brow. "You clearly don't want to die, so why do you want me and Supreme Commander to kill you?" In the apocalypse, everyone wanted to live as long as they hadn't been bitten by zombies. Only zombie victims pleaded for death, so she was quite clear regarding the difference between the two. Whether or not a person truly wanted to die couldn't escape her eyes.
"......" said Lou Zigui. Aren't you pushing them closer to death by bringing up their families now? As expected, the officer's will to live extinguished with those words. He certainly understood Grand Preceptor Xie's intentions in poisoning him. If he didn't die, his family certainly would. The other six officers were in the same state. They'd brought soldiers to the capital for the sake of promotions, but now they couldn't even keep their lives.
The seven officers all thought the very same thing at those words: His Majesty is fooling around with us!
Lou Zigui suddenly felt that bringing Miss Ning here had been a mistake. How could anyone talk like this to bring people to their side? Ning Xiaoyao, on the other hand, was very earnest as she spoke.
Although His Majesty's words had some strange phrasing, the officers could understand what he meant.
Although some of his terms seem excessive, His Majesty's words do make a little sense, the seven officers thought.
When the officers discovered that even their deaths would be meaningless, they were stuck. They could neither seek life nor aim for death, but were caught in a place worse than hopelessness.
"......." said Lou Zigui. Girl, is inviting people to meals all you know to do?

Many animals lay eggs. This group includes birds, most reptiles, amphibians, arthropods and worms. There are also a few mammals that lay eggs, such as the platypus and echidna. When we talk about eggs, we primarily mean chicken eggs, which are an integral part of human nutrition and from which a lot of egg products are produced. On average, every German eats over 200 eggs a year. Eggs are considered nutritious foods. They contain around 6 grams of protein or protein per piece. Eggs also contain vitamin A, vitamin E, beta-carotene, vitamin K, B vitamins and minerals such as calcium and iron.
From a health perspective, eggs are an issue in both a positive and a negative context. Eggs have a reputation for increasing cholesterol, increasing the risk of vascular blockage and heart attack. Eggs are also often subject to stress and recalls due to salmonella, dioxins and insecticides. But according to current reports and studies, eggs are much healthier than their reputation suggests for years. Eg, eggs are excellent sources of protein, have many valuable nutrients, are supposed to reduce the risk of stroke and increase growth in children. Even the frequently mentioned cholesterol-increasing effect of eggs has been refuted in current studies. (vb)

This is a great piece which goes some way to explaining why I am always wittering on about low stomach acid. It's making the point that suppressing stomach acid leads to poorer digestion and to larger protein fragments in the gut, which all leads to a higher allergy risk. Interesting. In fact, most people on antacid medication in my clinical experience have the opposite problem. It's confusing because low stomach acid can often look symptomatically exactly the same as high stomach acid. Always worth checking.
Why Is the Incidence of Food Allergies Rising in Both Adults and Children?
Immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated food allergies–the allergies that can cause anaphylaxis–have historically been relatively rare. In the past, they typically were seen in children, who tend to outgrow them by adulthood. Recently, however, the incidence of these allergies in children has risen, and the reactions increasingly are sustained into adulthood. Furthermore, new-onset food allergies and anaphylaxis in adults are now being seen, something virtually unheard of a mere 20 or 30 years ago. So what factors are contributing to this onslaught of allergic disease?
One powerful shift promoting adult-onset food allergy is the relatively new, global use of acid-blocking therapy such as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and H2 blockers. Numerous studies demonstrate this association, including one completed in 2005 by Untersmayr and colleagues.1 In this trial, 152 adults were given either a PPI or H2 blocker for 3 months and IgE responses to 19 foods were measured at the end of the trial. Amazingly, a greater than 10-fold rise in the incidence of food allergy was seen in the study group as measured by IgE response, and most of these food allergies were de novo, or new-onset reactions. Some participants with existing allergies experienced an increase in intensity of the reaction as a result of the PPI or H2 blocker. In a significant subset of the volunteers, the reactions continued long after the acid blocker was stopped. Not surprisingly, a control group demonstrated no significant change in IgE food allergy incidence.
The mechanism of this reaction is straightforward: Acid blockers inhibit the digestion of protein in the stomach. When the stomach does not predigest protein for the intestine, the pancreatic and brush border enzymes found there do not perform as well, resulting in larger protein fragments that are sometimes absorbed. Larger protein fragments are more antigenic than small ones; therefore, they are more likely to generate an allergic response.

Russian-born painter Tretchikoff dies in South Africa
The only original Tretchikoff painting I have ever seen and liked is in the boardroom of the National Horseracing [sic] Authority in Turffontein. It's a huge painting, shown above. The news of his death reminded me of the picture. Horse racing is on the decline in South Africa, to the point where the NHRA is jokingly referred to as "Negligible Horse Racing Activity".
Johannesburg - Russian-born painter Vladimir Tretchikoff died at the age of 92 in South Africa on 26th August, having produced the world's biggest selling print and a host of popular paintings during a career that spanned five decades, it was reported on Sunday.
The artist who settled in South Africa in the late 1940s after living in Asia where he worked as a propaganda artist for British authorities, is listed as one of the southern African country's top artists.
His China Girl portrait (above) is considered the most famous of his works, many of which are displayed in galleries worldwide. It has the record for the largest number of prints sold. The colourful painting by the self-taught painter and several of his other works, including, The Dying Swan, Zulu Girl and Lost Orchid, are also widely embraced as kitsch in some art circles.
Tretchikoff was born in 1913 and raised in Manchuria. He also lived and worked in Singapore and Jakarta before moving to the South African city of Cape Town where he ran a busy studio until he suffered a stroke four years ago, according to the Sunday Times newspaper.

Im from NZ and have just bought a Tretchikoff print on line and am wrapt, not "The Chinese Girl" I bought a "Miss Wong" Trememdously popular over here and definitely part of our cultural heritage, touching on the pacific roots we know and are accustomed to. I love the prints. I was surprised to find that he had just died, so sad to lose an artist so 'under valued'

I also have a Tretchikoff picture of the Chinese Girl in a beautiful frame it was my sister in laws .How would I go about to find out the value of it .I live in Florida .Her Father used to own a Chinese gift shop in NY City many yrs ago .

Take it to a reputable auction house for an estimate. If it's an original it will have some value, but if it's a print it probably is best left on your wall.
I'm not an art expert. Perhaps you could send a digital photo to a reputable art dealer, but I have no idea who they are. In SA my first port of call would be Sotheby's, but I have no idea about the USA.
