Qatar's Emir pledges $1.25 billion to support Tunisia
Qatar will support Tunisia's economic and social development with US$1.25 billion in investments over the next five years, the Emir has announced.
During a conference in Tunis yesterday, Sheikh Tamim said economic development will help solve the country's unemployment issues, QNA reports.
"We have people in Tunisia who decided to build their country on the basis of pluralism, human dignity and freedom, as well as on the basis of the common denominator between the political forces, i.e., the interests of Tunisia, away from tyranny.
Are we going to help them to make their experiment a success or to stand idly by to watch them facing difficulties alone and to come later to look into the reasons for despair and frustration and their ensuing destructive results?"
During his first state visit to Qatar in May, President Beji Caid Essebsi highlighted youth unemployment as a key challenge facing Tunisia.
At the time, Essebi's minister for employment said the government was keen on increasing the number of Tunisia laborers working in Qatar.
Currently, some 20,000 Tunisian nationals live and work here, a figure that has quintupled since 2012.
Yesterday, other countries including Saudi Arabia, France and Turkey also pledged millions of dollars to support Tunisia's government transition following the 2011 revolution.

Have you always wanted to become a beekeeper but didn't know where to keep them? Keeping bees is a good, sure way to put some extra money in your pocket, pollen in your plants, and honey in your cupboard. You can certainly purchase all the equipment you'll need, but some of you more hands-on folk may prefer to build your own beehives. Hopefully this article will give you the information that will help. Bees visit flowers to collect nectar and pollen, which they use as food for themselves and the larvae in their hives or nests.

#Blessed or #Privileged
September 4, 2015 Lucy Allan
Recently I was asked to reflect on some questions about my experiences of an international development education and exposure course I completed in India at the beginning of last year.
'Are there any deep truths that you learnt while in India that have stayed with you one year on?'
I don't want to add to the noise about India being someplace you go to find inner truth and so forth, so let me premise this by saying that I learn deep truths in the everyday of Melbourne as well.
To my surprise, some of the things that confronted me most in India were things that also confronted me in Melbourne, such as how to respond to someone on the street asking for money, or how to communicate with people who don't share my language and culture.
Privilege was one thing that I was confronted with in India. I remember being taken to meet a group of girls at a school in the middle of a slum who were learning tailoring skills in order to earn money for themselves and their families. There was a poster on the wall of the classroom of goals/dreams that the girls had. One was to read a book. Another was to wear Western clothing. Another was to have the freedom to leave the house alone. There were gold stars next to the goals rating them from 'easy' to 'very difficult'. The latter two goals where rated 'very difficult'.
While on a train in Delhi I met an American woman who was living in a slum. She came up to us and started chatting because she didn't see a lot of Westerners in this part of Delhi. We had a lot of interesting conversations but a few times she returned to asking us about where the Indian poverty line was according to the government. She had been trying to live very simply, pushing herself to her limits, and wanted to know if she was under the line. 'It's like a game to me' she said half jokingly. She wanted to be relatable to the poor Indians she lived amongst in the slum.
However, it didn't matter how little she could push herself to live off, she couldn't actually be poor. You can't chose poverty. This woman was white, Western, and educated. She has a network of friends and family that could whisk her back home anytime. These are the privileges that her neighbours in the slum do not have.
'What was the biggest challenge coming back?'
While sitting in the offices of the development partner hosting us, we learnt about how the deeply ingrained values of Hinduism in India affect the way people think of poverty. The three major components of Hinduism–reincarnation, karma, and the caste system, form a worldview which holds that if you are poor, sick, hungry or homeless, it's because you've done something bad in a past life, and so probably deserve it. Therefore, to help someone out of poverty is to interfere with the divine order.
However I'm not convinced Christianity does much better.
When I got back I was asked by my church to share upfront what I'd learned. I talked about privilege and shared the above story about the girls learning tailoring and their dreams; but during prayers afterward, the leader thanked God for my experiences in India and thanked God for the the privilege we have here in Australia.
Yes. Thankyou God for the global structures that perpetuate wealth inequality and for the history of colonialism that has made Australia the great nation it is today. In Jesus name, amen.
I became pretty upset and angry about this incident, but it wasn't the particular leader or even the particular church that I was angry at, it was the culture we have in the mainstream Australian Church of separating spirituality from economics and politics except when we are rich and in power.
If you consider your job, house, and car to be blessings from God, does that mean people who struggle to acquire those things are not blessed by God? Or to use the language of Instagram and Twitter, if your life is so #blessed, does that mean that someone living in poverty is #cursed?
A person living off the dole in Melbourne still receives more in a year than 83% of the world's population, according to globalrichlist.com. Melbourne has for three years running held the title of 'World's most liveable city'. With a population of 4 million that's a 0.0006 chance of living in Melbourne, if you happen to be a person living on earth.
Using the language of probability, it sounds like we 'won the global lottery', and people in the aid/development sector often talk about the 'luck of birth'. But looking from a historical perspective it's no accident that we as descendants of Western Europe are in the position we are.
While I was writing this, I very nearly wrote 'lucky' or 'fortunate' instead of 'privileged' a number of times. I think perhaps this habit of thought isn't just my own, but a manifestation of an ingrained cultural denial–or at least ignorance–about our heritage in colonialism, and denial that our prosperity is dependant on the global capitalist and political systems that perpetuate poverty. At their worst, our religious institutions, be they Hindu or Christian, enable this cognitive dissonance.
'How is life different now? What changes have you made in your life?'
But at their best, religious institutions are the most beautiful examples of peace and justice, which was my overall impression of EFICOR, the development partner we were hosted by. Another example of the Church at it's best, in my opinion, is Love Makes A Way, a movement of Christians seeking an end to Australia's inhumane asylum seeker policy through nonviolent love in action, which I became involved in a couple of months after I returned from India.
Importantly, I have made a habit of knowing my privilege. This has not been a cut and dry process, but a growing illumination that has occurred as a result of listening to people who walk in very different shoes to mine. Just like the American woman I met on the train, there is nothing I can do to shed myself of privilege; I can only adopt a stance of awareness to it. I try to do this in a number of ways–
I think to myself often where things might have come from that I am eating or wearing, and what the lives of people that produced or created them might be like.
Whenever I am studying I try to remember the privilege of access to education, and whenever I share my opinions publicly (like here) I remember that not everyone has this freedom.
Despite my political predispositions often being in opposition to our government, I remember just how much an Indian school teacher I met on a train to Varanasi praised the Australian government for its stability and provision for its people.
When I think of travelling somewhere I remember that while it is so easy for me, for most it is much more expensive, and there are millions of people who would not dream of crossing international borders, because of cost, political restraints, or lack of paperwork. Money, and goods cross borders with more freedom than people.
Most recently I've been trying to remain aware of the privilege of my white skin and remember that so many things that come easily to me, do not for people of colour. I keep in mind the history of colonialism that has meant that I, along with most white Australians, have come out very near the top of global system.

We were gifted garlands like that in the picture whenever we visited another village. We each ended up with at least five or six from Koya alone. The hospitality was bittersweet. I wrote in my diary afterwards–"It made me upset to experience the separation between the villagers and myself. They were sitting right in front of me, but this did not close the gap between us".

Q: Podio API for .NET - Cannot create item I am using the official API for .NET and trying to add new item in app. This code had worked once but then something changed (not in the code) and it's not working anymore. Here is the code:

    {
    var podio = new Podio(clientId, clientSecret);
    podio.AuthenticateWithApp(appId, appSecret);
    Item myNewItem = new Item();
    var namefield = myNewItem.Field("applicants-name");
    if (model.Name != null)
    {
    namefield.Value = model.Name;
    }
    else
    {
    namefield.Value = "/";
    }
    var jobfield = myNewItem.Field("related-job-opening");
    jobfield.ItemIds = new List { model.RelatedJob };
    var addressfield = myNewItem.Field("address");
    if (model.Address != null)
    {
    addressfield.Value = model.Address;
    }
    else
    {
    addressfield.Value = "/";
    }
    var emailfield = myNewItem.Field("email-address");
    if (model.Email != null)
    {
    emailfield.Value = model.Email;
    }
    else
    {
    emailfield.Value = "/";
    }
    if (model.Linkedin != null)
    {
    var embed = podio.EmbedService.AddAnEmbed(model.Linkedin);
    var linkedin = myNewItem.Field("linkedin-profile2");
    linkedin.AddEmbed(embed.EmbedId);
    }
    var phone = myNewItem.Field("contact-phone-number");
    if (model.Phone != null)
    {
    phone.Value = model.Phone;
    }
    else
    {
    phone.Value = "/";
    }
    if (model.Attachment != null)
    {
    var fileName = Path.GetFileName(model.Attachment.FileName);
    var path = Path.Combine(Server.MapPath("~/App_Data/uploads"), fileName);
    model.Attachment.SaveAs(path);
    string extension = Path.GetExtension(model.Attachment.FileName);
    FileAttachment podioFile = podio.FileService.UploadFile(path, "user-cv" + extension);
    myNewItem.FileIds = new List { podioFile.FileId };
    System.IO.File.Delete(path);
    int itemId = podio.ItemService.AddNewItem(appId, myNewItem);

    }
    else
    {
    int itemId = podio.ItemService.AddNewItem(appId, myNewItem);
    }
    return "OK";
    }
    }

This is the line of code where the error is thrown: int itemId = podio.ItemService.AddNewItem(appId, myNewItem);
The error says Microsoft.CSharp.RuntimeBinder.RuntimeBinderException: 'Cannot perform runtime binding on a null reference'
Actually an error is thrown but the item is successfully added in podio. What could be wrong?

A: Try updating your Podio .Net API package, On the last update there were few changes like revision id datatype change from int to long. This will cause error if you are still using an old library.

All players should be aware that the VC area in the main tent is closed, but a new tent behind the far endzone is selling merchandise today.
Today is the last day for teams to collect their free Spikeball kits from the VC tent. Make sure you take advantage and pick yours up!


Houston TechFest 2010 is this Saturday!
Houston TechFest is upon us again! It's free, it's filled with tons of sessions, I hear people say there's going to be ping-pong… (ok, I digress…). If you're in the Houston area, or within driving distance (or if you just like flying), make sure to attend to this event.
Design Patterns are often used every day by every developer in one way or another. A basic understanding of patterns and how to implement them is very useful for all .NET developer, and this session tries to clarify design patterns in a way that everybody can understand and start thinking about patterns in a more natural way. Attendees will learn: The definitions of some of the main patterns, how patterns improve code quality, how to implement and use the patterns. covered such as Command, Observer, Adapter, Strategy, Factory, etc.
This is NOT the same session I've been doing for year; I'll be doing this session with my buddy Jonathan Birkholz (aka JB), and we created all new material from scratch.
The Virtual Brown Bag has come long ways since I started year over a year and a half ago. It's been growing a steady regular attendance, we've incorporated a wiki, we're publishing all the recordings online just a few hours after the meetings end, and we continue working on improving our experience there. At the Houston TechFest, we'll be giving people a quick introduction at what the Virtual Brown Bag is all about, and will pretty much do a "live virtual brown bag" right then and there, sharing the top things people learned since we started, and whatever else comes up there. Several "VBBers" are going to be there, including myself, JB, George Mauer, Jared Lobberecht, and other VBBers.
EPS Software/CoDE Consulting has a highly distributed team with developers in Houston, New Orleans, Knoxville, and Sao Paulo all working on overlapping parts of the same project. This talk, developed by George Mauer and Claudio Lassala for Houston Techfest 2010 will cover some of the tools and techniques used to keep the team synchronized and working together toward a common goal.
I'm excited about this session too. I'll be doing this one with my buddy, co-worker, and VBBer, George Mauer. We've been working together for several months now, and we thought we should share some of our experiences with other people.
This is one of my favorite sessions. Very laidback, and totally focused on my real life experiences.
So that's it: make sure to register for the conference (have I mentioned it's FREE?), and I hope to see you there. Make sure to stop by and say hi!
I'll go through my old posts and better organize them, and hopefully I'll go back to start blogging at least once a week. To the very least, I want to blog my thoughts on the latest Virtual Brown Bag's meeting; it's not meant to be a "summary", since we're using a wiki for that now, but instead, just my thoughts as they are at that moment on some of the topics discussed.

Sign us up for this biker gang: Last night Bradley Cooper gave Lady Gaga a lift to dinner in Santa Monica, California — on the back of his motorcycle. The two friends looked like true bikers: Lady Gaga in her ripped jeans, studded boots and leather jacket and Cooper in his Ducati jacket and tight pants.
Before you start speculating about anything romantic, remember that Cooper is dating model Irina Shayk and Gaga is smitten with fiancé Taylor Kinney.
The more likely reason for their motorcycle hangout is well, they're just the coolest. But also they could potentially be working on a movie together according to and hopeful . It wouldn't be a surprise considering the amazing past year Gaga has had in the acting world. For now, let's just enjoy this meet up for how badass it is.


As I reflect on this topic, I think about how the path my life took must be nothing compared to the person sitting next me in my government class. I often wonder if the path they dreamed about growing up changed as much as mine did. Have they had to experience the adversities in life that I have had to? While everyone has his or her own unique trials and tribulations, I realize everything I've been through has helped shape me into the person I am today.
As I have grown older and have begun understanding life on a more profound level, I now know that this tragedy did not ruin my life. They actually did the opposite. I have grown wiser and stronger. I refuse to use the death of my father as a crutch. Instead it is my motivation to be the best I can be at everything. My life journey and all of its obstacles has taught me more than I could have learned with a smooth sailing life. The waves that have knocked me down only made me stronger when I got back up. I am not the strongest, prettiest, or the smartest, nor will I ever be, but I give everything I have to be the best I possibly can. My family, hard work, and dedication have helped me through the strenuous and tragic events that have taken place in my life. It has formed me into the person I am today which will help me be successful in the future.

In her journey to understand the man behind the legend, Lesley-Ann Jones has travelled from London to Zanzibar to India. Packed with exclusive interviews and told with the invaluable perspective that the twenty years since Mercury`s death presents, Freddie Mercury is the most up to date portrait of a legendary man.

Oh darn it! after trying all the suggestions made with the exception of plugging an alternative phone because i don't have one, nothing really changed much. i'm presuming it's not a problem related to the sky telephone itself as surely which is not in working condition so it cant cause the sky broadband service to stop. it looked to me as if i got no option but to stop my work for the next few days, but thanks to the sky customer service department , i must say they provide some of the best customer services in uk.i have already saved the sky customer services telephone helpdesk number i got here, its really fast and easy alternative for solving any sky related problems, complaints or so..
Last week I subscribed for Sky broadband services and I am really happy with it. When called on above mentioned Sky customer service number, the customer services representatives are very polite and easily handle your problems. Really!Really satisfied with the quality of services. I have a good and stable internet connection with Sky. I would highly recommend to go for Sky services as they provide, what they claim.
I took a day off from my work since I was given a date by the sky support engineer to visit my place. But no one turned up nor even an email or a text message was there for information sake. I straight away called the customer care number for sky to lodge a complaint and I was told by them that my phone line provider had still a lot's of work to do outside. I was told that they will arrange for a call back within a period of a month. I am really devastated a tall this and how will I be able to compensate for the day of loss of my work that has happened because of this. I really don't know what to do ?
I have just moved to a new house ..My phone and TV are both working properly but I have had no broadband from the day one . The sky sent me new broadband on payment . I got it installed but i still have got no broadband. The sky sent an engineer to check here but event that was of little help. I rang up sky quite a few number of times but only thing they did was just to keep on transferring all my calls to other guys . I had conversation with nearly 4 guys over there and had to keep on explaining my problem to them but even that was of no use. There is still no broadband for me. I am really very upset with all this. The service from sky is really terrible.
I am experiencing some problem on my laptop's (Apple) speed while using the sky WiFi .When contacted the sky customer services gave us a link and told us go to it. But this link shows up with the access denied and the port is closed and we just want to open it. Kindly provide me with the solution to this issue.

Don't which one is accurate maybe someone can enlighten me either way Super rare car.


Recently, the scientists from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) along with an international research team delineated the possibility of a new class of sterilizable, flexible, organic electronic materials for medical applications by proving the stability of a novel and rugged thin-film membrane at high temperatures.
The work conducted using a low-energy X-ray beam line, at the National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS) in Brookhaven, N.Y., was supported by an international team led by researchers from the University of Tokyo and included participants from the Japan Science and Technology Agency, Princeton University, the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research, Hiroshima University and Nippon Kayaku Co., Ltd. of Tokyo.
The spectacular advancements which are being made in the arena of organic electronics make it possible to replace the conventional rigid, crystalline materials like silicon and germanium with flexible organic materials. Engineers around the world look forward to a long list of potential applications such as light weight computer displays that can be printed on a film and folded or rolled up. Flexible organic circuits also find applications in the field of medical electronics such as soft pacemaker.
The problem arises when these devices need to be sterilized at high temperatures which they may not be capable of withstanding. The prime challenge lies in the manufacture of organic electronic materials that won't breakdown under such extreme conditions. The gate insulation layer in an organic transistor has to be extremely thin to hold down the operating voltage to a reasonable level. When heated to sterilizing temperatures, these thin films tend to develop multiple pinholes which wreck their performance.
To tackle this problem, the Tokyo based team came up with a novel gate material which self assembles into an ultra-thin mono layer(SAM) of 2 nanometres consisting of densely packed linear molecules that will line up at a slight angle to the surface rather like the hairs on a retriever.
The thermal stability and molecular orientation of the Self-assembled Monolayer (SAM) were assessed through analysis of their samples before and after the heat treatment on the NIST beamline using a technique called Near-Edge X-ray Absorption Fine-structure Spectroscopy (NEXAFS). This super sensitive technique detects the nature of the chemical bond at the surface and in the interior of the sample and is capable of differentiating the single and double bonds formed by carbon in a molecule. The pinholes in the SAM are also visible as NEXAFS can see through them to the underlying substrate. The measurements made using NEXAFS indicate that the novel SAM thin films maintain their integrity and stability even at temperatures over 150º Celsius. So far this is the highest thermal stability achieved for thin films around the globe.

Teachers, students and parents are realizing the benefits of incorporating mobile technology in education. With the increasing need of personal technology, education bodies are looking for ways in which to use mobile technology for education and already, big steps have been made. In the past, the mobile phone has been used for increasing efficiency in education and delivery of learning resources. However, research also shows that there are ways in which it can be used to increase effectiveness in education.
There are so many educational apps in the app stores, an app for every subject. Say for example, learn history app can answer all your history related questions. In addition, students at all levels of education can use these apps to improve the way they study. Since the mobile phone is so personal and is on our personal most of the time, students can feel better knowing that they access educational material even when they are not in school. The Google Play tutoring app can solve all the study related problems of all the students needing help with their study.
Traditionally, learning was reserved for the classroom setting. However, that view is changing fast today with the coming of technology into education. When the students go on a school trip, they can learn, and record things on their mobile phones to access them later. Today, through the mobile phone, the teacher can post assignments on the class forum and bring everyone aboard to discuss the work. The good thing is that whatever is shared on such forums stays there and unless it is deleted, it is never lost.
The power of audio-visual is unbeatable and that is why YouTube has been so effective. In the same way, education and class lessons can be effectively passed on to the students by using video recordings. This is a good practice, which promotes learning on the go. Students can access the video and audio lessons on the class website or blog whenever they like, even when they are out of school. Because these videos and audios can be downloaded many times, students do not have to worry about losing their notes. In addition, they can play and replay the videos as many times as they like.
Students can take advantage of the language learning apps that they can download from the app store and increase the portfolio of the languages taught at school. For example, with apps like Babbel that translates content into the language of your choice, students can learn any language they wish. Italian, Spanish, German, Polish, Dutch and many more languages should be easy to learn when a student creates content and then he/she uses this app, or any other similar app to translate into the language of their choice. Language teachers can also use this app to teach their students new languages.
Instead of writing remarks down if you are a teacher, you can instead record an audio clip of the same so the students can download it and listen to it. This way, the students feel a personal connection with the teacher and a large number of them say that they find this way much better than getting the traditional feedback. With audio recordings, the lecturer can give high quality feedback on the work done. It is almost similar to talking to the students one-on-one.
Students can gain a lot from the use of mobile technology for classroom matters. Learning does not stop when class ends. When students are out there in the field, on vacation or on other matters, they do notice many things related to science, history and other things associated with what they are learning. They can take pictures and videos and then share them with fellow students. Teachers can also use apps like Skype to connect with their students anytime through web conferencing.
Reading on the go is now a reality with mobile technology. With huge storage space that can store thousands of eBooks, students can carry their books with them all the time. With internet connection, they can also download more material from the internet and they can access more helpful information on sites like Wikipedia. Traditionally, students used to learn from teachers, books and parents. Today, they can learn from books, teachers, parents and the internet, thanks to taking mobile technology to the classroom.

The signature of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of Calif., is on the article of impeachment against President Donald Trump, after an engrossment ceremony before transmission to the Senate for trial on Capitol Hill, in Washington, Wednesday, Jan. 13, 2021. (AP Photo/Alex Brandon)
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has been impeached by the House days before leaving office, becoming the first American president to be impeached twice.
The previous three impeachments — those of Presidents Andrew Johnson, Bill Clinton and Trump — took months before a final vote, including investigations in the House and hearings. This time it only took a week after Trump encouraged a crowd of his supporters who attacked the U.S. Capitol.
Democrats and 10 Republicans voted to impeach Trump on one charge: incitement of insurrection.
Outgoing Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has said the Senate will not begin a trial until next Tuesday, at the very earliest, which is the day before Democrat Joe Biden is sworn in as president. It's unclear, for now, exactly how that trial will proceed and if any Senate Republicans will vote to convict Trump.
Even though the trial won't happen until Trump is already out of office, it could still have the effect of preventing him from running for president again.
A look at next steps:
SENDING TO THE SENATE
Once the House votes to impeach, the speaker of the House can send the article or articles over to the Senate immediately — or she can wait a while. Speaker Nancy Pelosi hasn't yet said when she will send them, but many Democrats in her caucus have urged her to do so immediately.
Pelosi has already appointed nine impeachment managers to argue the case against Trump in a Senate trial, a sign that she will send them sooner rather than later.
Once the articles are sent over — that is usually done with an official walk from the House to the Senate — then the majority leader of the Senate must start the process of having a trial.
THE SENATE SCHEDULE
The Senate is not scheduled to be in session until Jan. 19, which could be McConnell's last day as Senate leader. Once Vice President Kamala Harris is sworn in, making her the president of the Senate, and Georgia's two Democratic senators are also sworn in, Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer will take charge and determine how the trial will proceed.
Read the full transcript: President Trump's speech ahead of Capitol riot
McConnell said he will not bring the Senate back on an emergency basis to start the trial, so the earliest it could begin would be Tuesday. That means the trial is certain to take place after Trump has already left office.
McConnell noted that the three previous Senate trials lasted "83 days, 37 days, and 21 days respectively."
ALL EYES ON MCCONNELL
McConnell believes that Trump committed impeachable offenses and considers the Democrats' impeachment drive an opportunity to reduce the divisive, chaotic president's hold on the GOP, a Republican strategist told The Associated Press on Wednesday.
And McConnell told major donors over the weekend that he was through with Trump, said the strategist, who spoke on condition of anonymity to describe McConnell's conversations. His wife, former Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, resigned from Trump's Cabinet soon after the riots.
But despite sending signals, McConnell has been characteristically quiet in public. In a note to colleagues Wednesday released by his office, McConnell said he had "not made a final decision on how I will vote."
SENATE POLITICS
If McConnell voted to convict, other Republicans would surely follow. But no GOP senators have said how they will vote, and two-thirds of the Senate is needed.
Still, some Republicans have told Trump to resign, including Pennsylvania Sen. Pat Toomey and Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski, and few are defending him.
Republican Sen. Ben Sasse of Nebraska has said he would take a look at what the House approves, but stopped short of committing to support it.
Other Republicans have said that impeachment would be divisive. South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, long a key ally of the president, has been critical of his behavior in inciting the riots but said impeachment "will do far more harm than good."
MAP: How much of your state is vaccinated against coronavirus?
Utah Sen. Mitt Romney was the only Republican to vote to convict Trump in last year's impeachment trial, after the House impeached Trump over his dealings with the president of Ukraine.
In the House, 10 Republicans joined Democrats in voting to impeach Trump, including Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, the third-ranking Republican. Every single House Republican voted against Trump's first impeachment in 2019.
TRUMP'S FUTURE
If the Senate were to convict, lawmakers could then take a separate vote on whether to disqualify Trump from holding future office.
Schumer said Wednesday: "Make no mistake, there will be an impeachment trial in the United States Senate; there will be a vote on convicting the president for high crimes and misdemeanors; and if the president is convicted, there will be a vote on barring him from running again."
In the case of federal judges who were impeached and removed from office, the Senate has taken a second vote after conviction to determine whether to bar the person from ever holding federal office again.
Only a majority of senators would be needed to ban him from future office, unlike the two-thirds needed to convict.
DIFFERENT CHARGES, DIFFERENT IMPEACHMENT
This impeachment trial is likely to differ from the last one in many ways.
The House charges in 2019 on Trump's dealings with the president of Ukraine, whom he urged to investigate Biden, came after a lengthy investigation and testimony from multiple government officials. While Democrats unanimously criticized the conduct and charged Trump with abuse of power, the charges wove together a complicated web of evidence.
This time, Democrats felt there was little need for an investigation — the invasion of the Capitol played out on live television, and most members of Congress were in the building as it happened.
Trump's speech beforehand, in which he told his supporters to "fight like hell" against the election results, was also televised as Congress prepared to officially count the votes.
House Intelligence Committee Chair Adam Schiff, who led the last House impeachment team, said the insurrection at the Capitol was an "impeachable offense committed in broad daylight, in which the whole country was a witness."
He said the lightning-fast impeachment "was required by the exigency of the circumstances, and also made possible by the very nature of the crime."
The four-page article of impeachment says that Trump "gravely endangered the security of the United States and its institutions of Government."
It was introduced by Democratic Reps. David Cicilline of Rhode Island, Ted Lieu of California and Jamie Raskin of Maryland, all of whom have been tapped to serve as impeachment managers in the Senate trial.
The article says Trump's behavior is consistent with his prior efforts to "subvert and obstruct" the results of the election and references his recent call with the Georgia secretary of state, in which he said he wanted him to find him more votes after losing the state to Biden.
Trump has falsely claimed there was widespread fraud in the election, and the baseless claims have been repeatedly echoed by congressional Republicans and the insurgents who descended on the Capitol.
As the protesters broke in, both chambers were debating GOP challenges to the electoral vote count in Arizona as part of the process for certifying Biden's election win.

WPHL EEO REPORT


Holley NY to Niagara-on-the-Lake Ontario.
The Holley drawbridge and tower. We camped to the right of the tower.
I start my mornings with a level of nervousness that I don't completely understand. I'm afraid that I won't be comfortable on the bike, or that I won't be able to ride as far as we have planned for the day. I'm afraid we have set a target that is beyond what I could reach, and if we fail it is because I am not strong enough.
Today was a really long day. We wanted to make a run for the border, and by lunch it wasn't clear we had any chance of making it. We were slogging along the Erie Canal trail at approximately 12 km / hr. Both a strong headwind and the chipped stone surface of the pathways were slowing us down. We had a long way to go and the daylight hours were limited. I did not want to be attempting a border crossing in the dark!

After lunch things improved dramatically. The headwind stopped and we gained a fair bit of strength. Our average jumped up to over 15 km / hr, even when I was leading. Before lunch, to get to 12 km / hr Scott had to lead and I would follow in his draft. Without him breaking the wind, I would only make 10 km / hr! So, after lunch it was delightful to speed along the canal path.

We reached the end of the canal path at 5 pm (Lockport). We had 30+ km to go to the campground on the Canadian side of the boarder. At 15 km / hr this is over 2 hours, but that doesn't include stops. We stop every 45 – 60 minutes for bio breaks and to stretch out our legs; otherwise our feet fall asleep and our legs get really unhappy with us when we get out of the bikes. At the top of the locks in Lockport, Scott stopped to chat with a lady. Unfortunately, that chatting went on longer than I would have liked, since I was watching the clock and wondering if we could make it to the border on time, plus I needed to get something to drink (with sugar) to sustain me. By 5:30 pm we were on our way out of Lockport. We picked up the pace to an average of 20 km / hr (no headwinds and mostly flat).

We reached Lewisville at 7:45, but then made a few wrong turns. If we had just followed the "to Canada" sign, we would have been OK. Unfortunately, the sign was followed by a sign for the I-190, so I thought the onramp led to a major highway, and not straight to the bridge. We were searching for the back road to the bridge. Eventually, we found our way back to the "to Canada" sign and followed it. It turned out to take us directly to the bridge and Canadian Customs. We had no issues clearing customs and didn't need to pay for the bridge (the toll to cross is collected after crossing, and the toll booths lead directly to the QEW – major highway). The nice toll booth person sent us around back of the toll building and into the employee parking lot. From there, we could get directly onto the Niagara river parkway, and pop down into Niagara-on-the-Lake.
We pulled into the campsite at 8:30 pm. We were able to pick up a couple of things from the camp store, so dinner was quick (canned corn, canned yellow beans, and textured vegetable protein with some spices).
We had originally thought we might spend two nights at the camp ground in Niagara-on-the-Lake, but it turned out to be a pretty mediocre campground. I was especially disappointed with the locked shower/bathroom building and the need to pay for showers. When you pay $30 per night to camp, you should at least get a free hot shower! The tent sites were just spaces in an open field with a few trees. There was no privacy with sites and the picnic tables were old and chinsy. Since the facilities didn't add up to a peaceful rest day we decided we would just take it easy tomorrow, but move on to someplace else.

Mars Williams Presents An Ayler Xmas Vol. 4: Chicago vs. NYC (Astral Spirits / Soul What, 2020) ****½
Monday, December 21, 2020 Holiday Music 2 comments
Last year when I reviewed Mars Williams An Ayler Xmas Vol 3, I wrote that I was hoping that this would continue to be an annual event - a new collection of Ayler/Holiday mashups to counteract the deadly ear-poison of 'All I Want for Christmas (is you)'. I also secretly wondered how Williams could keep finding new inspiration with the theme. Now, knowing the answer to both and I'm pleased to report that there is nothing to be worried about.
One thing that keeps this idea interesting is the ever changing set of musicians joining Williams on the stage. Last year there was a collection of tunes recorded in Krakow, featuring a collection of New York and European mmusicians. The year prior it was a selection from a group in the U.S. and a group from Europe featuring musicians from each continent exclusively. This year, we have Chicago vs. New York. Some new faces join the old in Chicago, and features, along with Williams on sax and toy instruments, Josh Berman on cornet, Jim Baker on piano, viola, and Arp synth, Kent Kessler on bass, Brian Sandstrom on bass, guitar, and trumpet, and Steve Hunt on drums. Rounding out the band (even further on some tracks) in Chicago is Peter Maunu on Violin, Katinka Kleijn on cello, and Keefe Jackson on baritone sax. In New York, Williams is joined by Steve Swell on Trombone, Hilliard Greene on bass, Chris Corsano on drums, Nels Cline on guitar, and Fred Lonberg-holm on cello.
Another thing that makes this yearly (fingers crossed) installment exciting is the evolving repertoire. No, I did not go back to see which songs have been on which album and in what order, that's for someone more OCD than me to do, but I have a simple explanation: it just hardly matters. The combinations change, the interpretations range from wild (see 'Did You Hear They Found Light in Darkness Looking for Chestnuts' from Chicago) to sublime (on 'The Hanukah-xmas March of Truth for 12 Days of Jingling Bells With Spirits' from the Chicago band, there is a beautiful solo piano section from Baker which then gets poked at by Berman's cornet) and often in the same track, like the 28 minute rendition of 'The Hanukah-xmas March of Truth for 12 Days of Jingling Bells With Spirits' from NYC, where the regal melody is lightly shadowed by Cline's wavering electric guitar for a little bit before it takes everything quickly Downtown.
Of course my question is what's next? The recordings so far have drawn from touring, live situations where the audience and band have made for ever changing experiences. However, this year because of the pandemic there was no tour (though there was a live streamed concert). One may be tempted to think, following current patterns, Vol 5 could very well be a Mars Williams solo Ayler Xmas release. Who knows!

A few notes: the vinyl version is built around contrast - it contains contains only tracks 3 & 6, which is the same medley from the Chicago and NYC groups respectively. The vinyl version does come with a download of everything. The NYC recording is also dedicated to Eric Stern, a friend and contributor to the blog, at whose concert series the NYC recording was made.

I was pleasantly surprised with how the playing and arrangements were at such a high level from beginning until end. Each volume has been a welcome event but this might be the best yet.

I love this stuff. So true to the spirit of Albert Ayler. And, overall, just great playing! I've bought all their volumes including this one.
