Crossover Covers: Area 52
Area 52 is a secret government storage facility in Antarctica where super-weapons, occult items, and other weird stuff are stored. Items held within Area 52 include wreckage from Roswell, the Ark of the Covenant, the Super-Soldier formula, Mjolnir, Wonder Woman's Lasso of Truth, the Time Machine, and an alien power ring that shoots green energy. The Ark of the Covenant is from the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark, of course. Apparently the Ark was moved to Area 52 from the government warehouse where it was stored in 1936. The Super-Soldier formula turned the frail Steve Rogers into Captain America. Mjolnir is the hammer wielded by the heroic god Thor; it must have passed into Area 52's hands millennia after Conan gave it to Crom, following the events of "What If Thor of Asgard Had Met Conan the Barbarian?" Wonder Woman's lasso is self-explanatory. The Time Machine is from H. G. Wells' novel of the same name. The alien power ring is the one wielded by the superhero Green Lantern. Several of Simon R. Green's novels mention an Area 52 in the Antarctic, further bolstering this series' connection to the CU.

The Ark was in Area 51 in 1957, according to Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. But even more recently we saw that it's in the Library, as shown in the first Librarian tv movie. Why would the Library give it up? Also, at the end of that film we saw the main character go after Wells's time machine. Why would he give it to Area 52 rather than the Library?
I'm also confused about Mjolnir. Warehouse 13 established that it's in the Warehouse (I think that scene also showed Wonder Woman's lasso, but I might be misremembering that). Why would the government remove it from the warehouse?
Sean Levin September 30, 2015 at 10:07 AM
Well, given that the Area 52 miniseries was published in 2001, The Librarian: Quest for the Spear aired in 2004, and the Warehouse 13 episode "Mild Mannered" aired in 2010, the Ark, Time Machine, Mjolnir, and the Golden Lasso must have been removed from Area 52 to the Library and Warehouse 13, rather than vice versa.
Luke Van Horn September 30, 2015 at 10:27 AM
Ah, I didn't realize the dating there. Thanks! It sounds like the time machine must have been stolen from Area 52, and that's why the Librarian needed to go track it down.
I wonder how they move Mjolnir, since I presume it's hard to find someone who can pick it up. Or maybe the purple gloves warehouse agents wear neutralizes the spell on the hammer, allowing them to lift it?
FreeLiverFree September 30, 2015 at 10:12 AM
Actually, the Ark of Covenant is not from Raiders of the Lost Ark. It's from you know religion. ;)
The Ethiopian Christian Church claims that it is in their possession. There was actually a Mack Bolan novel about a cult stealing that one. (It left it open whether it was the actual ark.)
So was there a Thor in the 20th Century. Maybe some powered down version?
I should've mentioned this, but the Ark seen in Area 52 has the same lethal effect on an alien when opened as the opening of the Ark did on the Nazis in Raiders, so I'm certain it was an intentional reference to the movie.

Saskatchewan calls for full repeal of COOL
On July 30, Agriculture Minister Lyle Stewart re-iterated the importance of the U.S. Senate's outright repeal of Country of Origin Labelling (COOL) for beef and pork. "Frankly, this issue has been dragging on for far too long," Stewart said.
SaskToday Aug 12, 2015 10:23 AM
On July 30, Agriculture Minister Lyle Stewart re-iterated the importance of the U.S. Senate's outright repeal of Country of Origin Labelling (COOL) for beef and pork.
"Frankly, this issue has been dragging on for far too long," Stewart said. "The expense and loss for our cattle and hog producers has been significant. The U.S. has had more than enough time to do the right thing and fully repeal COOL for beef and pork. If COOL isn't fully repealed for beef and pork, we will get to the point where retaliation is inevitable. While the costs for both Canada and the U.S. will be enormous, the U.S. must comply with their trade obligations."
The World Trade Organization (WTO) originally ruled in 2012 that COOL was discriminatory to Canadian hog and beef ex-ports. A final ruling by the WTO in May, 2015 reaffirmed that the U.S. COOL measure is inconsistent with international trade commitments.
On June 10, 2015 the U.S. House passed a bill that would allow for the outright repeal of COOL for beef and pork while avoiding retaliation. However, a new Bill calling for voluntary label-ling has stalled efforts to get the Bill passed in the Senate.
"The proposed solution of voluntary labelling as introduced by Senator Stabenow will not solve the problem," Stewart said. "This proposal is nothing more than COOL re-worded and will continue to result in discrimination towards Canadian cattle and hogs.
"Saskatchewan will continue to stand along-side the federal government in its efforts to re-solve COOL, including the implementation of $3 billion in annual retaliation if necessary.
"The federal government has been persistent in its efforts to get COOL repealed for beef and pork, and we thank them for their work," Stewart added.
Since COOL was introduced in 2008, Canada's industry has estimated damages to be in the billions due to price declines, lost sales and added costs.

Blackonomics…The Change We've Been Waiting For
AFRICANGLOBE - In light of the conversations about police abuse, unwarranted stops and arrests, and homicide cases involving Black people and police officers, many Black people get angry, maybe have a march, and then go home to await the next incident. Some of our organizations do their usual thing by making loud threatening statements and then get back in line until the next crisis hits. Amos Wilson said, "Until our behavior changes, the behavior of those who oppress and abuse us will not change." In other words, the onus for change is on us.

Good morning. Bitfinex, the Hong Kong-based exchange where bitcoin is traded, said it was hacked, sending the price of the digital currency lower, the WSJ reports. The possible theft of $65 million in bitcoin follows the $60 million theft in June of rival digital currency ethereum, which together constitute something of a digital currency crime wave. "Securing the bitcoin trading platform has proved elusive," the WSJ notes.
There's plenty of incentive to close the security problems, given that blockchain, the underlying technology, can make markets more efficient by removing the middleman. (See our CIO Explainer: What Is Blockchain?) International Business Machines Corp. said it is using blockchain to resolve customer disputes, as CIO Journal reported.
Perhaps it's unreasonable to expect digital technology to eliminate crime as we know it. But there's something uniquely disarming about the risk of theft in cyberspace, where vulnerabilities can appear to be more systemic in nature.
Samsung launches Galaxy Note 7 with emphasis on software, services. The focus on software and services is particularly important in the enterprise market, where Samsung Electronics Co. is deploying a new strategy in an effort to grow, Kevin Gilroy, executive vice president and enterprise chief of Samsung Electronics America., tells CIO Journal. "Part of our strategy is about selling business solutions and outcomes. The devices get dragged along by the solutions. That is the fundamental shift," he said. Mr. Gilroy is a veteran of H-P and SAP SE who was hired last year to reorient Samsung enterprise efforts in the U.S.
Dow Chemical names Melanie Kalmar CIO. Dow Chemical Co. named Melanie Kalmar chief information officer. Ms. Kalmar, a 29-year veteran at the company, succeeds Paula Tolliver, who left to take the CIO position at Intel Corp. Ms. Kalmar, most recently global director of Dow's Information Systems, has helped drive advanced global reporting and e-commerce capabilities, and has shepherded various merger and acquisition IT projects, among them a large SAP implementation, the company said Monday. She will report to Howard Ungerleider, Dow's vice chairman and chief financial officer.

First look: Samsung Galaxy Note 7. The WSJ's Geoffrey Fowler says the iris reader is the device's most novel addition is an iris reader, which lets users unlock the phone—and the contents of a secret folder with their eyes. A new infrared camera on the front reads iris patterns when it is held up to the user's face.
Hackers accessed Telegram messaging accounts in Iran. The encryption found in Telegram has made the Berlin-based instant messaging service a favorite among political activists and ISIS supporters alike. But now Reuters reports that hackers linked to Iran's government have managed to crack more than a dozen accounts, identifying some 15 million Iranian users. Experts tell Reuters that the attacks, which took place this year, may have jeopardized the activities of of activists, journalists and other people in sensitive positions. Telegram, in a statement, said only public data was accessed.
Cray's stock plunges. Supercomputer maker Cray Inc.'s plans for the year on Tuesday went up in smoke—literally, to a large extent—as smoke damage at a manufacturing facility helped cause the company to sharply cut back its revenue forecasts, the Journal's Don Clark reports. Cray will have to replace all of the chips inside five completed supercomputers that were undergoing tests in its Chippewa Falls, Wis. facility, said Peter Ungaro, Cray's chief executive. The Seattle-based company's stock plunged 20% in after-hours trading.
Washington regulator looking into uses for blockchain. More regulators are starting to look into how blockchain could be used to better oversee the financial system and protect consumers, the WSJ's Rachel Witkowski reports. The commissioner of the District of Columbia Department of Insurance, Securities and Banking, said Tuesday that his office is looking into how regulators could use blockchain to better track and secure consumer data and complaints filed to regulators, as well as streamline exams of companies and address problems in cybersecurity. Last week IBM Corp. said its finance unit would soon use blockchain to free up capital tied in customer disputes.
China, not Silicon Valley, is cutting edge in mobile tech. Some of the hottest mobile technologies, including payments and hailing cabs via messenger apps, first became popular in China, a region increasingly setting the pace in mobile tech and adoption, the New York Times reports. In many ways, the new mobile services address current gaps in the infrastrucutre, such as the lack of banking for the middle class. Meanwhile, the company's mobile startups are giving the Apple Inc. iPhone a run for its money.
FBI kept mum on suspected Russian role in DNC hack: sources. Sources tell Reuters that the Federal Bureau of Investigation held back suspicions that Russians were behind the hack at the Democratic National Committee, preventing employees there from taking additional steps to stem any damage. The FBI was called in last fall, but as late as June, hackers had access both to DNC systems and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee network, Reuters reports. A U.S. official with ties to the investigation tells Reuters that the FBI withheld information to "protect classified intelligence operations."

Q: Using links with babel in Jinja2 Currently I'm using Flask and Jinja2 in combination with Babel. So far everything is working great.
The only problem I'm facing is when using links in a translated text. Let's say we have the following in HTML:

You can change this in your settings.

How would I use this in combination with babel?
I had been thinking of the following code, but this gives issues when the order of words is not the same in the translated language.

{{ _("You can change this in your "){{ _("settings").

Another idea was to put the entire HTML into the string to be translated but then I cannot use string escaping anymore.
What is the preferred way to do this?

A: I was looking for a solution to this and came across this excellent page.
You can add links by using the string substitution that is available for jinja2 variables.  Here is an example:
{{ _("You can change this in your %(open)ssettings%(close)s.", open='' % user_id, close='')|safe }}

Your .po file will then have an entry like this:
msgid "You can change this in your %(open)ssettings%(close)s."

HomeBennett confirmed as Coach
Bennett confirmed as Coach
14th September 2006 Correspondent Uncategorised 0
Brisbane Broncos Managing Director, Bruno Cullen, today confirmed the tenure of Wayne Bennett as head coach of the Broncos until the end of the 2009 season.
With rumours and speculation over Bennett's coaching future seemingly a priority in the media for just on a week now, Mr Cullen said he wanted the focus of Broncos players, staff, sponsors and fans to be on what lay ahead of the team in Season 2006.
"I don't mind the speculation, but when these rumours start making it in to print and on our TV screens as though it is fact, it becomes very annoying," the Broncos managing director said today.
"I have emphasised a number of times during the past week that Wayne has a contract with the Broncos until the end of the 2009 season, and that I expected him to fulfill that. I also stated that I had not discussed these rumours with Wayne because our relationship is such that I knew if he had other ideas, he would discuss the issue with me.
"But at the end of the day – and in an effort to `kill' off the continuing speculation – Wayne and I did sit down to confirm our on-going relationship in regard to his coaching contract at the Broncos. Today, I confirm publicly that Wayne and I have met and discussed the conjecture about his future."
Mr Cullen said the status quo at the Broncos remains – the coaching contract of Wayne Bennett was extended a year ago, until the end of Season 2009.
"The firm commitment from both parties is that the contract will be completed in full," Mr Cullen said.
"During the ensuing three years we will be putting in place a succession plan for the years going forward after 2009. This is common practice in business and here at the Broncos we do this to cover a number of positions, including my own as CEO and Managing Director.
"I am very happy with this arrangement, as is Wayne and the Broncos Board, and we all look forward to continuing the success we have experienced with him at the helm during the history of the Broncos."
Mr Cullen said he also wanted to take the opportunity today to explain what – at the Broncos anyway – is meant by `annual reviews'.
"Some people in the media seem to have focused on this practice as a `will we sack him or won't we?' exercise, and that is simply not the case," he said.
"Every employee at the club is involved in a review process – including me – and I must stress it's about what we did or did not do during the past year, and how we can do things better, going forward.
"The Broncos celebrate our 20th anniversary next year and even before we finalise our 2006 campaign, our record over that time is exceptional compared to all other NRL clubs.
"This is our 15th consecutive finals appearance and during that time we have won five premierships. This season we finished third on the premiership table for the third consecutive year, which is a magnificent achievement in this tough and very even competition.
"And it has been Wayne Bennett, as coach, who has steered the Broncos through this entire period."

America, as always, brings Canada back down to Earth
in : CONCACAF, Women's National Team, Women's World Cup
But, with yet another loss to the Americans in which the Canadians didn't generate enough to be competitive, it's OK to be nervous about what Canada will do when it gets to the World Cup.
Canada qualifies for 2019 Women's World Cup
The formality of World Cup qualifying is done and dusted for the Canadian women's team.
Canada wins its CONCACAF group, will face Panama in semis
Canada will play Panama Sunday, with the winner getting one of CONCACAF's qualification spots at the Women's World Cup.
FIFA wants to "optimize" women's World Cup qualifying — CONCACAF is the place to start
Here's a suggestion. What would be a hell of a lot better than streaming a World Cup qualifying match from a mostly empty 9,700-seat USL stadium in Edinburg, Tex.? Seeing Canada playing World Cup qualifiers in Ottawa or in Toronto or in Vancouver or in Winnipeg or in Edmonton. Or Victoria. Or Moncton. Heck, there's a decent stadium in Fort Mac.
Canada scores a dozen against Cuba
With the game already in hand, Sinclair was introduced at the start of the second half, clearly an effort to get her closer to all-time women's international goal scoring leader Abby Wambach's total of 184. On a two-player break, SInclair opted to pass to Huitema for a tap-in rather than take it herself. And when Sinclair got no. 174, she did not scream or raise her arms in triumph. She led her teammates quietly back to half.
in : CIS and Amateur, More Women's Soccer
Soolsma's the first person to score four goals in the final since 1962, and only the third to do it in the history of the trophy.
Prince's two goals put a shine on an uninspired Canadian effort
So, after Nichelle Prince's brace gave Canada a 2-0 win over Jamaica in their group-stage opener at the CONCACAF Women's Championship, all is sweetness and light. Right? Right? A Friday night match in a Texas USL stadium in front of, well, hundreds didn't provide a lot of fireworks, but three points is three points, uh huh?

But, as Canada preps for the CONCACAF championships — this region's qualifiers for the 2019 Women's World Cup — maybe this scrappy 1-0 win was exactly the kind of game that was needed. The Brazilians hacked. They whacked. The game had very little in terms of flow.

Andersen Williams's 88th-minute header bounded right through a pack of Haitian defenders before it crossed the line — giving Canada a 2-1 win and a berth in the U-17 Women's World Cup.


Part 2 in the lead up to Silkie's forthcoming album City Limits Vol 2 dropping early 2011. City Limits Vol.1.4 kicks off straight from where City Limits Vol. 1.2 finished. Another sure fire double-header featuring two Silkie bullets, 'Slow Jam' and 'Wonder'. Silkie for those that are new to his sound is a longtime artist on Mala's DEEP MEDi imprint with releases on various other labels such as Disfigured Dubz, Soul Jazz Records and Antisocial Entertainment which Silkie heads up alongside Quest, Jay 5ive, Mizz Beats, Harry Craze and Kromestar.
Two of dubstep's most sought after dub plates finally make it on to 180 gram wax. Japanese dubstep don Goth-Trad, coming out on Mala's highly esteemed Deep Medi Musik. These productions are bass heavy, intelligent and devastating on any sound system.
Benny Ill and J. King who are both part of the Horsepower collective team up under their own names for their first outing on Deep Medi. Not only have Benny and J. King delivered two killer tracks with Kosmic 78 & Lithium Soular. but have teamed up with Wicked Wax Pictures who have created two sci-fi / horror videos to accompany the music.
The highly sought after 'Purple Love' is now fully released on 180 gram black vinyl with Siklie's 'Test' adorning the flipside.
Highly anticipated release on Mala's Deep Medi. Skream's cold-blooded take on dubstep throws out 'The Shinein', streaked with shreds of distortion, rust and decay.
The theory that isolation breeds creativity has never been as apt as it is for Truth, a dubstep outfit hailing from one of the world's most southern cities. What began as a musical experiment has now become something much more significant. A chance encounter with dubstep visionary Mala late in 2007 inspired the New Zealand trio, who have been working together for years, to try their hand at a new sound - one comprising serious sub bass and snares so nasty they make eyes water. Within days of slipping Mala a handful of tunes made in as many days, Truth had been signed to his label Deep Medi - widely regarded as one the most progressive in the scene. Truth's style defies categorisation, encompassing an array of melodies and vocals within spacious beats that range from halfstep stompers like 'The Fatman' to deeper tunes like 'Stolen Children'. One common element underpins every track though: a heavy bassline riddim that lays sheer force on any system man enough to handle it. In just a year, the sound of Truth has spread across the world. 'The Fatman' has been pulled back countless times in numerous cities, from Dubwar at Club Love in New York, to Sonar in Barcelona, to Mass in Brixton - the home of dubstep's seminal club night, DMZ. Today, in a scene that is defined by dubplate culture, some of its biggest players are dropping Truth dubs in their sets including Mala, Skream, DMZ, Nick Argon, and Goth Trad, to name a few.
This two tracker on Mala's Deep Medi label encapsulates Silkie's vibe of deep soulful dubstep.
Quest returns for another bout of meditational dubstep business. 'Stand' is a heavy minimal number for the heads, reminiscent of early Mala beats. On the flip, 'Eden' is a really surprising tune, incredibly melodic and not a million miles off the clean drifting vibe created by more commercial artists such as Zero 7, but still maintaining that dense bass inclination.

The Future of your Legal Practice
As human beings we are inclined to constantly think about the future. As children we wish for weekends, school holidays, birthdays and Christmas and as we enter adulthood not much changes, other than perhaps not wishing for birthdays so much. We spend majority of our day thinking about getting home after work, majority of our week thinking about the weekend and majority of the year thinking about our next holiday. Then as soon as the future morphs into the present we merely start thinking about some other future, never really living in the present.
Despite our constant wishing for, dreaming about and thinking of the future, we spend very little time really preparing for it. We tend to accept it will happen as it must and close our eyes, merely hoping that the future will come about as we had dreamed about it. In fact very few of us spend much time, if any at all, on foresight or futures thinking. In fact most people are inclined to think of crystal balls , oracles and other similar fortune telling associations when they hear the terms such as "Foresight"; and "Futures Studies"
Although the future cannot be determined with absolute certainty, the future is knowable to a certain extent as the future can be known as possible, probable or preferable . (Bishop & Hines, 2012) The possible , probable and preferable futures are determined by considering, analysing and studying trends, patterns and changes to determine possible futures that may arise. (Bishop & Hines, Forecasting, 2012)
It is an undeniable fact that the future is now and if not now then tomorrow, or sometime from today in the very least. Despite where you draw the boundaries between the past, present and the future or where you regard the future to switch into the present, there is no denying that the future is happening or in the very least will soon be happening. The future is not about making predictions on what will happen and wagering money on how accurate a prediction is or was not, rather it is about determining the possibilities, probabilities and likelihoods of tomorrow or the next year or five, to plan accordingly so as to strategically grow your business or legal practice to ensure a trajectory of exceptional growth and returns, or in the worst case scenario, ensuring survival where growth is an impossibility.
It is within this context that the Futures Law Faculty was established, as an accredited training institute, hoping to create awareness and share knowledge, thoughts and opinions through our masterclasses and workshops on the possible, probable and preferable futures of tomorrow and equip professionals with the necessary tools and questions to plan for the future accordingly.
To fully grasp the importance of Futures Studies and Futures thinking one merely needs to consider companies like Kodak, Blockbuster, Xerox and the like, who failed to look at the patterns, trends and changes that were providing clues on how the future was changing. Instead they fell into what is commonly known as the "Success Trap", where companies rely on previous big successes as a business strategy, failing to think about the future, failing to innovate or produce new products or services to ensure they remain competitive in an ever changing business environment.
The Fourth Industrial Revolution, although the buzzword of the time, is here whether we like it or not, with the emergence of enthrallingly exciting and exhilaratingly terrifying and mind breaking technologically and AI that renders anything we have seen to date as insignificant, as we are only at the beginning of the evolution of change .
This is clearly evident if one considers some of the recent developments and advancements made in AI , such as a robot who can solve the rubriks cube in 0.38 seconds, that is 3.09 seconds faster than Yusheng Du, who currently holds the record for solving the rubiks cube in 3.47 seconds or the Chinse AI news anchor named Qiu Hao, developed by Xinhua and the Chinese search engine, Sogou to broadcast the news as a human news anchor, with whom it shares a strikingly real resemblance, with the only difference being that AI Qui Hao can broadcast the news "tirelessly", 365 days of the year.
Advancements that have been made in Machine learning is also noteworthy, given the substantial potential it holds. Take for example the Magna Science Centre project called "Living Robots". Various robots were assigned either a prey status or a predator status and were then allowed to roam free in the science centre. Gaak, a small robot, was a assigned a "prey" status and thus had to escape the predators. While left unattended for a period of 15 minutes, Gaak escaped the Magna Science Centre on its on accord, by breaking through the walls of the Science centre despite Gaak not being programmed to physically escape the dangerous environment by fleeing to another environment. More recently machine learning was seen during 2017 when Facebook challenged two of its chatbots to engage in negotiations with each other to barter various objects that were given to each of them. The chatbots eventually started creating their own language with which they successfully engaged in negotiations, acting like their human counterparts in pretending to have exceptional attachment to one item so that it would appear to be a great sacrifice when they give it up for another item they wanted. Although rumours were doing the rounds that the robots were switched off out of fear of them conspiring against the human race in their own language, it has since been confirmed that as the robots were merely programmed to work out how to negotiate and improve their bartering skills, which they had mastered , they were switched off as the experiment was not progressing any further.
The potential of AI coupled with machine learning is most evident considering Google's AlphoGo. GO, itself is an ancient chinse board game dating back some 2,500 years and is considered to be one of the most complex, strategy games known to man. It involves two players who each have game pieces known as "Stones" which is moved along vertical lines and horizontal lines , placed at the line intersections with the principal aim being to acquire the most territory on the board. When played professionally it often takes approximately 16 hours to play and is usually played over two days. AlphaGo, developed by Google's subsidiary DeepMind, was programmed with a data set of 100000 GO games as played by "experts" as the basis from which it built its knowledge and strategies, with which it proceeded to beat the all time champion winner, Lee Se-dol. More recently AlphaGo has been upgraded to AlphGo Zero, which was programmed only with the basic rules of Go and nothing else. It proceeded to play against itself, initially only making random moves on the board however as it became more experienced and won, it updated its data each time. Consequently, it taught itself the necessary skills required to beat its former self, 100 to zero and after 40 days AlphaGo Zero had a 90% win rate. The significance of this is the fact that AlphaGO Zero taught itself how to play and win at GO without any human knowledge or programming– it indicates the ability of AI to create and develop knowledge from first principals.
This holds substantial potential for the development of multipurpose algorithms which can be used to solve some of humankinds most complex and difficult problems from designing new drugs to cure or eliminate cancer or AIDS to monitoring weather changes and patterns to predict natural disasters such as earth quakes and hurricanes.
The above must be considered in conjunction with Moore's Law, which provides that the capacity of computer processes doubles every 18 months.
So what is the moral of the story , as so eloquently stated by Anton Musgrave an international legal futurist, we need to beware of and focus on the forces on the horizon, just in our line of vision, which will serve to shape the future of tomorrow and the context in which we conduct our business and practice law to stay ahead of the curve to ensure we remain competitive within the futures context.

Basketball star BRITTNEY GRINER sentenced to 9 years imprisonment after jury finds her guilty of smuggling cannabis pen
Friday, August 5, 2022 – A Russian court on Thursday, August 4, ruled that WNBA star Brittney Griner is guilty of smuggling drugs into the country, and sentenced her to 9 years imprisonment.
The two-time Olympic medalist, also a player for the Phoenix Mercury, has been behind bars overseas ever since her arrest more than five months ago at Moscow's Sheremetyevo Airport, where customs officials said they discovered vape canisters containing cannabis oil in her luggage. She was accused of intentionally smuggling drugs into the country, where marijuana use is illegal for both medicinal and recreational purposes.
Griner pleaded guilty in July to possessing the substance but has also maintained that she did not mean to break the law, telling authorities that she mistakenly put the cannisters in her suitcase as she rushed to pack for her return to Russia, where she plays for the UMMC Ekaterinburg basketball team during the WNBA's offseason.
Griner's lawyer, Maria Blagovolin, also noted that Griner was prescribed medical cannabis two years ago to treat severe chronic pain and presented a doctor's note in court as proof. Blagovolin last month also provided a series of tests the American athlete received as part of an anti-doping check, none of which turned up any banned substances in her system.
The court "found the defendant guilty" of smuggling and possessing "a significant amount of narcotics", judge Anna Sotnikova told a court in the town of Khimki just outside Moscow. The player was also fined one million rubles ($16,300).
US President Joe Biden was quick to condemn the verdict, calling it "unacceptable" and renewing his calls for the player's release
"We will continue to use every possible avenue to bring Brittney and Paul Whelan home safely as soon as possible," he said, referring to another American imprisoned in Russia on an espionage conviction.
Sotnikova had said on Thursday that Griner committed the crime "deliberately". But Griner had testified during the trial it was a mistake.
Since her arrest, Griner's relatives, teammates and supporters have been calling on the US government to put its full weight behind the case to push for her release.
Griner, a two-time Olympic gold medalist and a Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) star, was arrested at Moscow's Sheremetyevo airport on February 17, a week before Russia invaded Ukraine, when she entered the country with vape canisters containing cannabis oil.
"I never meant to hurt anybody, I never meant to put in jeopardy the Russian population, I never intended to break Russian law," Griner said through a translator while standing in the metal cage reserved for defendants in Russian courtrooms. She apologised to her family, teammates, and her spouse
Griner's lawyers said they plan on appealing the verdict, accusing the court of ignoring the evidence presented by the defence.
"Taking into account the amount of the substance – not to mention the defects of the expertise – and the plea, the verdict is absolutely unreasonable," her defence team said in a statement.

Duplication in police IT 'terrible', says minister
MPs and experts including Home Office's minister for policing debate the use of technology to improve policing as inquiry continues.
MPs and police chiefs have agreed that police IT developments remain slow and "urgent clarity" around how the national policing architecture can best work is needed, during latest oral evidence for the Policing for the Future inquiry.
The inquiry takes evidence from Police Chief Constables (PCCs) from diverse forces to explore the challenges of modern policing and is led by the Home Affairs Select Committee.
In response to a comment by committee member Douglas Ross about the use of technology by police forces to better align data, witness Nick Hurd MP, the Home Office's Minister of State for Policing said: "There is a central challenge around an historic approach to procurement with insufficient understanding of what they were buying and insufficient collaboration and best practice in how it is bought.
"We are still dealing with a system that has terrible amounts of duplication in it, is still sending evidence to the court on CDs and still has systems that don't talk to each other properly."
Another witness in the debate, Mike Cunningham QPM, chief executive officer of the College of Policing, responded: "In the past 10 years, developments have been nowhere near as coherent or as swift as they have needed to be. There is no doubt that the challenges of communication in criminality have not been matched by the opportunities available to policing.
"The ability for policing to coalesce around a national issue and to put a coherent, single plan in place, to which people can all sign up, is too difficult. That is why there does need to be some urgent clarity around how the national policing architecture can best work."
He said to enable progress, policing agencies must work closer together and more collaboratively with chief constables and police and crime commissioners. "The service should have moved more quickly, in a much more planned way, and has not done so."
Growing recognition
However, Nick Hurd MP said that growing recognition and "a much more intelligent response to the problem" has emerged.
"Collectively, we are trying to drag police technology from a place that feels terribly out of date into the modern age, but there is a will to do that. There needs to be a plan around it and evidence that the police system buys into the plan and will implement it. There will be a resource requirement attached to that, which we intend to take to the Comprehensive Spending Review," he told the committee.
Last week, the minister convened a second round table at the Home Office to discuss how to take the issues forward, with 20 police chiefs and PCCs among others.
He described it as "a seriously proper conversation about police technology and the future and what is needed to get to the kind of vision that we are working towards about what a digitally enabled police force should be doing by 2025. This should have been done a long time ago."

No need to panic, Titan fans, over losing baseball coach Dave Serrano. Cal State Fullerton has been through this before. Click on the photo for top coaching candidates.
NINO GIARRATANO: Shown here with pitcher Matt Hiserman, Giarratano won the West Coast Confereence at San Francisco this year and then beat UCLA in the first round of the L.A. Regional before falling short. Giarratano has been at USF for 13 years and has made the program competitive in a tough league.
LARRY LEE: Cal Poly has become a major player in the Big West Conference under Lee, a Pepperdine grad who took the Mustangs to the NCAA tournament in 2009. They were 15-9 in Big West play this year to finish third. Lee would bring a blend of head coaching experience and conference familiarity. He also had a successful run at Cuesta College before landing at SLO.
MARK WASIKOWSKI: But if CSF isn't interested in Lopez perhaps it will be intrigued by lead assistant Wasikowski (left), who played third base on the '92 title game at Pepperdine. Wasikowski played for Don Snedden at Santa Ana College in between his stins at Hawaii and Pepperdine, and is a Los Alamitos grad. Wasikowski has been Lopez's right-hand man and recruiter at Florida and Arizona.
ANDY LOPEZ: It's been 19 years since Lopez's Pepperdine team won the College World Series title over Cal State Fullerton and Lopez established himself as college baeball's most promising young coach. Looez went to Florida from there and is now at Arizona, where he has seven NCAA appearances in nine years. He passed 1,000 victories two seasons ago. Maybe the opportunity to come home would appeal to the L.A. Harbor College grad.
PAT SHINE: He's in his second tour of duty as a UC Irvine assistant, having served for John Savage and Mike Gillespie. He also was the head coach at Cal State L.A. and went to the Division II World Series. The Anteaters' roster has a heavy Orange County presence and Shine has been in charge of their recruiting. And he has coached college players in the California Collegiate Baseball League during the summer.
BILL KERNEN: One of the few playwrights in the college coaching field, Kernen was the pitching coach at Cal State Fullerton before he came to Cal State Bakersfield to take that program from Division II to Division I. This year CSUB went 33-22 and had a staff ERA of 2.87. Kernen has written and produced two plays that have been shown off-Broadway. Interesting fellow.
JOHN ALTOBELLI: Altobelli coached Orange Coast to the state championship in 2009. The Newport Harbor grad played on a U. of Houston team that nearly made the World Series, and at OCC he surpassed Mike Mayne's all-time victory total. In 2011 te Pirates went 30-8. The DNA of Fullerton's program is largely made up of junior college coaches and players, and Altobelli would be a good fit.
DON SNEDDON: It's hard to leave a place where they've named the stadium after you, and where you've won 15 league titles and over 1,000 games. Sneddon has personified Santa Ana College baseball. And community college jobs bring tenure and security. But with nothing more to conquer, perhaps Sneddon is worth a call from CSF. He played for Wally Goodwin at Cerritos College, the mentor for three different CSF coaches, and also played and coached at Fullerton.
RICH HILL: Hill's USD Toreros are coming off a disappointing 22-31 year but the humorous, energetic coach could be a good fit at CSF. Hill won five West Coast Conference titles between 2003 and 2010 and is well-known for recruiting and developing pitchers. Hill also won at Cal Lutheran and San Francisco.
DAVE ESQUER: The Cal coach begins College World Series play against Virginia Sunday after wondering if his program would be discontinued. Cal officials announced that it would until donors intervened. Certainly Esquer has a close bond with his players, but just as certainly he must wonder about the school's longtime commitment. Keeping the Bears focused this season is testimony to Esquer's skills.
GREG BERGERON: It isn't clear whether Bergeron will follow Dave Serrano to Tennessee, as he did from UC Irvine to Cal State Fullerton. A prime proponent of "little ball" and the running game, Bergeron is obviously familiar with the Titans at hand. In his only year as a head coach Bergeron was 30-7 at El Camino College.
GEORGE HORTON: Shown here as he accepted the Oregon job in 2007, Horton got the program re-started in 2008 and has been to two NCAA tournaments. This year's Ducks were 33-26-1 and produced first-round draft pick Tyler Anderson (Colorado), a pitcher Horton recruited. Horton is making $400,000 at Oregon but acquaintances have said Horton and his wife might be amenable to a return to Southern California. Horton won the College World Series at CSF in 2004.
MIKE BATESOLE: He's coached at two Orange County community colleges and is a Cal State Fullerton grad, and Batesole's Fresno State team won a stirring College World Series championship in 2008. The Bulldogs also qualified for the NCAAs this year. Before that Batesole won a Big West championship at Cal State Northridge. He's got the numbers, but does he consider Cal State Fullerton a step up?
From the moment the Tennessee baseball coaching job opened up, Cal State Fullerton officials knew they had a good chance to lose Dave Serrano.
The Titans' coach was an assistant at Tennessee when Todd Helton played there and couldn't turn down that opportunity.
Fullerton has been through this before. From Augie Garrido on, every one of its coaches has visited at least one College World Series.
And there is a plethora of candidates this time around. Let's take a look.

Snippet Sunday!
Happy Sunday! Who is in the mood for a snippet from the upcoming December release of 'Dying to Remember'…the much anticipated 2nd book of The Station series? Here you go!
"When did she move out?" Jess asks as she sips her hot chocolate from a mug the size of a mixing bowl.
"I was nine. It's been awhile. I only see her every other Holiday or so," Cole replies.
"That's sad."
"Not really. She wasn't that great at being a mom. Just wasn't her thing."
"How do you think that happens? I mean, my Mom…wow, is she a mess. How exactly do you become a crappy parent?" Jess peers at Cole over the rim of her mug.
"Who knows? Maybe their moms were crappy too?"
Jess laughs along with Cole, enjoying the sound of his voice as it fills the living room, booming upwards, expanding into the space between the wooden cathedral ceiling beams. He's draped lengthwise across the sofa directly across from her, wearing her dad's clothes. It's almost comical how comfortable he looks.
"So, where were you going to take me today?" Jess asks as she sets her mug down on the narrow coffee table between them.
He sips on his own drink and raises an eyebrow at her. "If I tell you that, it won't be a surprise for next time."
"Oh," she says with a smile.
"Anyway, this is better I think. More relaxing with the rain outside, and all."
"I hate it here," she blurts out. Feeling embarrassed, she looks away from him, letting her gaze fall on the deck doors. The same doors she had come through the day Roger died and her mother walked away from her in exasperation.
"It's not so bad. My whole house could fit in this one room," Cole says with a soft chuckle.
"I don't know. A house this big just feels empty."
"Empty," Cole says quietly, staring at her. The word had rolled off his tongue softly, and his penetrating gaze made her uncomfortable, but not in a bad way. Heat was radiating through her, even though she was desperately trying to force her thoughts away from Cole's soft spatter of chest hair that peeked through the top of her dad's shirt.
Back at the Station I roll my eyes. The moment I saw him in the pancake house I knew he'd be a distraction. Let's just hope he's the good kind of distraction.

One of the biggest issues "Search Engine Optimization experts" face is that they tend to sell their marketing services short by focusing on keyword rankings.
Ranking a keyword is only part of the story. Hacking good rankings without taking care of basic business building principles is downright dangerous.
The problem I see with most business owners is that they swallow the SEO lie whole and assume they are going to be able to make "huge gains" in their marketing by simply ranking in search engines. You need a Seattle SEO expert to help you get the job done right.
Won't Keyword Rankings Create Huge Success?
It's true that great rankings increase click through. It's true that high keyword rankings communicate more value and trust to a searcher. But, it's not true that great keyword rankings have anything to do with the actual longevity of a business model or marketing skill. In fact, good rankings may just be pro-longing a bad business plan.
Whether you're ranking a keyword via organic optimization or paid search, real internet marketing starts with the quality of your service and your revenue goals. A lack of understanding in both of these areas will generally render your online marketing efforts quite useless.
I you're like 90%+ of mid-size to small business owners then you tend to run your business from a "shoot from the hip" mentality. I was in the same boat for years as well. However, when I decided to truly focus on making money I took a step back and looked at my services and revenue goals before implementing my marketing strategy.
Does being number 1 in Google always translate into success? Maybe it will with monetary gains, but how do your rankings translate into successful long-term conversions? If your service or product is bad you're going to get bad reviews. In retrospect, I've committed to not working with any businesses who have s a bad reputation and are not willing to take "huge action" to fix these issues. No SEO campaign can fix bad reputation.
A marketing manager is someone who can reverse engineer business revenue goals into a successful marketing campaign. For years I acted as more of a keyword ranking service for clients. This brought about some frustrations as my clients would keep throwing money at me, hoping it would make their business grow. They had an idea of what their revenue goals were, but zero concept of how to organize the right type of marketing strategy and budget to fit those goals. In the end, they didn't need keyword rankings, they needed a solid marketing plan.
I've been around long enough to see a lot of business start and fail. My best customers are CEO's and business owners who make $250,000 plus per year consistently. I say consistently because I've seen owners who hack their way into a large income, but never achieve long term success. The difference between consistent long-term earning and short term success is always a better business plan with calculated marketing goals based upon yearly revenue goals.

What Does A Cache Look Like?
TIME: The War Cannot Be Lost!
As you know I am not a very political person. I just wanted to pass along that Senator Obama came to Bagram Afghanistan for about an hour on his visit to ' The War Zone ' . I wanted to share with you what happened.
He got off the plane and got into a bullet proof vehicle, got to the area to meet with the Major General (2 Star) who is the commander here at Bagram.
As the Soldiers where lined up to shake his hand, he blew them off and didn't say a word as he went into the conference room to meet the General. As he finished, the vehicles took him to the ClamShell (pretty much a big top tent that military personnel can play basketball or work out in with weights) so he could take his publicity pictures playing basketball. He again shunned the opportunity to talk to Soldiers to thank them for their service.
So really he was just here to make a showing for the Americans back home that he is their candidate for President. I think that if you are going to make an effort to come all the way over here you would thank those that are providing the freedom that they are providing for you.
I swear we got more thanks from the NBA Basketball Players or the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders than from one of the Senators, who wants to be the President of the United States . I just don't understand how anyone would want him to be our Commander-and-Chief. It was almost that he was scared to be around those that provide the freedom for him and our great country.
If this is blunt and to the point I am sorry but I wanted you all to know what kind of caliber of person he really is. What you see in the news is all fake.
Update: Below is a report from the PAO in Camp Eggers, Afghanistan, about the visit of Senator Barak Obama.
US Army Central Command Photo of Senator Obama meeting with troops at Camp Eggers, Afghanistan.
KABUL, Afghanistan – Camp Eggers service members enjoyed breakfast with a Congressional delegation including Senators Barack Obama, D-Ill., Jack Reed, D-R.I. and Chuck Hagel, R-Neb. during their visit, July 20, to Combined Security Transition Command-Afghanistan headquarters.
The visit was part of the delegation's trip to American forces commands in central and eastern Afghanistan. In Kabul the delegation was briefed by Gen. David McKiernan, International Security Assistance Force commanding general, and Gen. Maj. Gen. Robert Cone, CSTC-A commanding general.

Mrs C. O'Donohue (Head of Department)
Mr D. Boyle
The Art & Design / Moving Image Arts department at Portora Royal School is at the central hub of the school's Visual and Performing Arts Specialist status. The department actively promotes and encourages each individual pupil to develop personal levels of interest, originality, diversity and independence of thought. Pupils are supported to communicate what they see, feel and think through the use of colour, texture, form, pattern and different materials and processes, to include both traditional and digital media; these rich experiences ensure pupils learn to make informed judgements and aesthetic and practical decisions. As a department we strive to develop pupils' ability to understand and confidently use Visual and Digital literacy as an integral part of learning. Furthermore, pupils' exploration of ideas and meanings is underpinned and inspired by frequent opportunities to appreciate the work of artists and designers.
Annually, our department attainment exceeds the N.I averages at GCSE and A-Level. The department has set a standard of achieving 100% attainment, grades A*-C across all levels of entry.
Alan Dean and James Wallace were placed 2nd and 3rd place respectively in CCEA Moving Image Arts at A2 level in 2012.
Ben McNair achieved a special merit award for his entry in the 'Texaco Children's Art Competition', spring 2012
A number of Year 8 pupils were awarded highly commended certificates for their art entries in the Fermanagh Feis, spring 2012.
The quality of teaching and learning is bolstered and reinforced through the application of suitably varied strategies and methods. Pupils are encouraged to think and do for themselves through investigative studies and realised outcomes within the constraints of structured and stimulating project work, which is assessed on a regular basis, by both pupil and teacher. Collaborative units of work have been built into KS3 schemes of work to meet the requirements of the N.I. Revised Curriculum. Success and effort are rewarded and this is directly linked to formative assessment procedures internally and to the school half termly grade system. Targets are agreed with pupils and set using Midyis (KS3), Yellis (KS4), Alis (KS5) and baseline data.
At KS3 a wide range of techniques and disciplines are explored including: drawing, painting, collage, 3D design, ceramics, printmaking, illustration, branding/advertising, digital photography, digital image manipulation, animation and mixed media.
All KS3 pupils experience 1.5 hours per week, with 1/3 of this time devoted to the delivery of ICT competencies. Beyond KS3 pupils experience 2.5 hours at KS4 and a minimum of 4 hours at KS5. Homework is set for approximately 6-week periods in advance for KS 4/5. At KS3 homework is set on a regular basis. Pupils are encouraged to take part in competitions and workshops delivered by visiting artists. The department offers after school support for homework/coursework.
The department comprises two Art rooms, a Moving Image suite of 12 Apple iMac computers, an animation room, a ceramics annex, and 6 PC's. Digital camera's and D-SLR video cameras, tripods and a steadicam, and professional sound equipment are available for pupils to borrow.

"First, let me say, I am a veterinarian and have had considerable experience with various leg braces that did not work. I ordered these for my own geriatric Great Dane who has considerable trouble with her hocks rolling out when she walks. These braces have given her stability and she seems more comfortable and more confident when she is moving about. She has been wearing them 24/7 w/ no slippage."
Labra is committed to helping all dogs enjoy happy, active lives.
My name is Noah, I am the founder and owner of Labra. We are a small business specializing in products that improve the quality of life of our best friends. Our family company was born out of necessity when my Chocolate Lab, Buddy suffered a debilitating hock joint injury. After searching unsuccessfully for days to find a brace that was supportive, yet flexible and lightweight I realized I would have to get creative. I had the first version of our Lightweight Canine Leg Brace custom made. After immediately seeing outstanding results in my guy's mobility, I realized there must be other dogs out there in need of a similar product.
Since launching our Lightweight Canine Leg Brace, we have gone on to add many more great products for pups. I encourage you to browse our product catalog for a variety of items which have all been tested and approved by my very own best friend.

Q: I have a 'for' loop appending directories into a list, however it is returning me a list with empty strings, instead of the directories I have this code in which the user chooses the directory, then glob.glob() selects only the files ending with .txt. Then I have this file of stop words (which is working), but my last for loop doesn't seem to work. I wanted that list to contain all the texts I pass, but it only returns empty strings.
import glob
from tkinter.filedialog import askdirectory

data_directory = askdirectory(initialdir='/Users/vinicius/Desktop/Assignment 3 - CISC 121/Documents_1')
text_files = glob.glob(data_directory + "/" + "*.txt")
data_directory_stop = '/Users/vinicius/PycharmProjects/Assignment_2/StopWords.txt'

stop_word = []
with open(data_directory_stop, 'r') as stop:
  for x in stop:
    x = x.strip('\n')
    stop_word.append(x)
print(stop_word)

lista = []
for x in text_files:
  with open(x, 'r') as text:
        lista.append(text.read())
print(lista)
print(text_files)
print(data_directory)

A: It looks like "with open(x, 'r') as text" itself is failing.
If it's reaching lista.append(), it should print the content.


I switched from a Dtek50 to a Key2. Previously I had a passport. I am very happy with the key 2 except for the Bluetooth. I have APTx earphones and an APTX puck for my car. My car only has the Bluetooth phone option and that is why I have a puck to stream the music to it and it outputs the audio in the aux plug. With the Dtek and the passport they both would connect to the puck and the integrated bluetooth phone system when in the car. When I would connect the headset at the gym, it was insteantenous. Now with the Key2 the puck and the headset are paired and the car bluetooth system just won't pair. The passkey is the standard 1234 and when the phone sees the car_audio and I select it the car says that pairing failed and to consult phone options. This very disapointing and I tried multiple times. Its a bluetooth system from 2010 and there is not resaon for it not to work with a brand new phone with the latest android.
OK I had the SAME problem with pairing my car and the KEYtwo. How I fixed it was removing any special characters/spaces in the Bluetooth identity name aka device name. Also changed the default Bluetooth device name on my vehicle to a unique non capitalized name. Do not use special characters in the device name like dashes ( - ). Only use alphabetical letters.
Changed the device name like you said. The problem still persists. The default name on the bluetooth phone system in the car is "CAR M_MEDIA" . There is no way for me to change that. Either way, this should work and frankly I find it very shamefull on Blackberry / TCLs part.


PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — A disgraced former charter school president was sentenced today to three years in prison. He had worked out a deal for a sentence of about two years, but authorities say he couldn't keep his hands off other people's money.
Federal prosecutor Louis Lappen told the court that the conduct of Masai Skief, former president of Harambee Institute Charter School, in northwest Philadelphia, was reprehensible: he stole nearly $90,000 that was supposed to be used for educating schoolchildren, even putting some of the money into his personal "iDream" account.
And he kept stealing, even as he was negotiating his plea deal with the government. And he still wasn't done: he took more money after pleading guilty.
""He is basically announcing to the world, 'Of course I haven't accepted responsibility for this because I am walking out of court and doing it again,' " Lappen says.
And now Skief has been sentenced to an extra year in prison.


Shaved Ice has been around for many years, with its origins in Asia. The cool treat spread to Hawaii where it soon became a favorite.
Hawaiians originally would shave the ice by hand creating a cold flaky snow and topping it with fresh fruit juices.
Shaved ice is much different than a sno-cone in that it is made by a counter-top machine that shaves ice rather than grinding it like a sno-cone machine. This process results in ice so fine that it rivals real snow! The snow is then placed in a cup and filled with high quality tropical flavors. Because the snow is so soft, the syrup is held within it's tender texture versus settling to the bottome like a traditional sno-cone.
Hawaiian Shaved IIce offers the most popular flavors throughout the USA.
Li Hing Mui is a salty dried plum. It was made popular in Hawaii by Yee Sheong, who in early 1900 had began importing Li hing mui and other preserved fruits from China to Hawaii. It can be found in Hawaiian and Asian Markets. It has a strong distinctive flavor and is often said to be an acquired taste. It also has been described as tart and even tangy. Originally from China, the name li hing mui means "travelling plum".
"Li hing " is "travelling" and "mui" is "plum"
Try LiHing Mui as a topping to your next shaved ice at no additional cost.


"Beautiful accompaniment to the eagle costume!!!!"
"These are beautiful, unfortunately, they are completely unusable by my almost 8 year old daughter. They were weird to open up when they arrived. Then the straps are so loose the heavy structure falls and hangs down, instead of flush on her back. No way to fix the straps because of the weight of the wings. She is so sad because she was really excited."
"Certainly gorgeous and they do make the costume look spectacular. . Personally, I wish the wings were not "fixed" in the open position. It will make maneuvering in a Crowd difficult. Still, they deserve five stars. "
"Top quality Comfortable to wear Collapsible Real feathers Lots of Ooohs and Ahhhs with these wings!"
"These wings are beautifully made and really sturdy and almost look real! The one issue we had were that the straps weren't really heavy duty enough to hold the wings in place. the wings are very heavy and wired, they can be molded in shape, however, they were a bit hazardous indoors. These wings wouldn't be good to wear around a lot of people or around anything valuable! "
"Beautiful costume. My daughter loved it . She received so many nice comments and won 1st place in a costume contest. "
"Regal eagle costume - My daughter picked this costume out of the costume. As usual, great costume, quality, the feather are so real. - I recommend this product."
"Beautiful costume - The costume overall is beautiful. The dress is well made, wings are spectacular. Unfortunately the wings do not hang well when put on. Next time I would purchase just the dress. - I recommend this product."

Paul Boucher
April 12, 1948 – November 10, 2020
It is with deep sadness we announce the passing of Paul 'Lonnie' Boucher, age 72 years, on November 10, 2020 at home with family by his side.
Paul was born April 12, 1948 in Wingham, Ontario. This is where he began his entertainment career as Ranger Paul at CKNX-TV. His commanding voice led him into radio as a radio announcer in Ottawa, then the Morning Man at CFCA-FM in Kitchener, Waterloo followed by the Morning Man at CKPR-FM in Thunder Bay.
In 1975, Paul along with fellow snowmobile enthusiasts, formed the snowmobiling organization called NOSA-Northern Ontario Snowmobile Association. Snowmobile and motorcycle ice racing became the new spectator sport.
Paul always wanted to be his own boss and so he, along with his parents, Shirley and Lee, bought Walkers sharpening. Two years later it evolved into Walkers Marine. For 18 years, he worked hard to make Walkers Marine a successful business. Recognized by Mercury Marine for his accomplishments in sales and service, Paul achieved the distinction several times, over the years, as one of Canada's Top 10 dealers to attend Mercury Marine Congress held at various prestigious locations. He was also recognized for his hard work and outstanding sales and service by LUND boats, Bombardier and Arctic Cat snowmobiles. During this time, he along with two friends, Jim and Bob created PJB Distributers selling Michi Craft Canoes.
His passion for boating and the outdoors then grew to float planes and flying. In 991 he and his wife Judy, bought outpost camps and created Ogoki Frontier Inc. A premiere fly-in fishing and moose hunting outfitting business. Ogoki Frontier has been a family run business for almost 30 years. Deciding this was his true calling, he devoted his life to his outpost camps and remote tourism. At the young age of 50 years old, he obtained his private pilot license and took to the skies in his favourite float plane, his Piper PA-12 "Cub Cakes".
Paul and Judy, his wife of 50 years, were married in November 1970 in Chatham, Ontario. They enjoyed working together, cruising in the Caribbean and travelling to sports shows in the US. Some winters months were spent in Florida where they enjoyed relaxing in the warm sun, riding around in convertibles and watching the Blue Jays spring training games in Dunedin. Paul was also a football fan. Having played the sport in high school, he enjoyed watching the Grey Cup. He also enjoyed watching Junior hockey. He loved the sport so much that, for a dew seasons, he was proud to have Walkers Marine sponsor a player of the Thunder Bay Flyers.
Paul was an outdoor enthusiast. Since 1982, many seasons were spent at the family camp on Obonga Lake, enjoying everything mother nature had to offer. Summers were spent at camp making lifelong memories with his family, soaking life up to its fullest, enjoying the water and raising a glass to an Obonga sunset. Winters spent at camp were some of Paul's favourite times, as he enjoyed snowmobiling with friends and family.
Paul was an articulate individual who enjoyed discussing world events and giving wise advise, whether it was solicited or not! He was affectionally referred to as 'the big guy'.
Paul is predeceased by his parents Lee "Slim" Boucher and Shirley (Nethery) Boucher, grandparents, numerous aunts and uncles and Piper "the man" cat.
He will be sadly missed and lovingly remembered by Judy, and their children, Danielle (Mike) Fell, David Boucher, Nicole (AJ) Loyer. Grandchildren, Maddy (Jackson) Boucher, Mitchell Fell, Mya Fell and Eila Vondette-Boucher. Brothers, Barry and Duane Boucher and his furry friend "Kenny the Kid".
A heartfelt thank you to all medical professional who cared for Paul.
Cremation has taken place. A celebration of Paul's life will be held at a later date. Condolences available at www.harbourview funeral.ca
If friends so desire, a donation may be made in Paul's memory to the Urology Program at the TBRHSC, John Howard Society of Thunder Bay or the Salvation Army Thunder Bay.
Much love to Lonnie, Dad, Grandpa and Gpa.
You will be deeply missed

Towards the end of last year, I helped out painting scenery for the Christmas play at my daughters' school which resulted in quite a lot of hours and me vowing not to take on any large scale work for a long time!
Fast forward just a few months and I yet again found myself tackling a huge mural (which you can read about here), again for the school my 2 daughters attend and once again I vowed not to tackle anything too large for the foreseeable future.
So, obviously I have spent the last few weeks working on my biggest project to date!
I was commissioned by a local theatre group to paint the scenery for their upcoming production of 'A Budget Cinderella' - on boards that are approximately 10 feet tall, and with a combined length of 80 feet!
I had to paint it in situ on stage in the local church hall - and all while the usual programme of events carried on. So, I spent a large part of the time working behind closed curtains to the sound of coffee mornings, craft clubs and bring and buy sales!
It has been a back-breaking project to tackle - but I have thoroughly enjoyed it and have loved being welcomed by the lovely church hall community who got used to the strange lady behind the curtain and who would come and check on my progress and bring me welcome cups of tea.
It is a double sided set - with one side showing Cinderella's worn out house, the other side a contrasting warm and luxurious palace ballroom. Because of this, I warn you, there are quite a few pictures to follow! These are just pics grabbed on my phone as I work, and although they are not the greatest quality, I hope they give you a little insight into this project and how the scenery came to life.
You can also catch a glimpse of the old scenery that was there before that I had to paint over - a hint as to what will happen to mine once the show is over..!


I was wondering if anyone has any word as to the condition of the large houses that are behind Mt Top Resort on the North side. I know several people that live there.
At that elevation the wind must have been really bad.
Many thanks and we will get through this.
Yeah, I saw that when it came out. Maria imagery doesn't cover STT or STJ other than looking at coastal conditions.
Look at the Irma imagery unless it's in the missing portion.
