Alain Graillot, Crozes-Hermitage, 2017
The onset of my personal wine bug in mid 2002 coincided with two events that had fed my habit for years: an article on Rhone wines in a local wine magazine and a Rhone tasting at Wine Route, which happened to be the first tasting of imported wines I had ever attended. The article contained a tasting note of the Graillot, Crozes-Hermitage, 2000, which was one of the wines we drank at the tasting. Basically, Graillot was there at the start for me.
What I remember most about the Northern Rhones from the tasting, which included, besides the Graillot, an Yves Cuilleron Saint Joseph, was the sensuality of the fruit and its silky texture. Of course, I had no context at the time for comparing the wines to other producers and other appellations. I knew from that article that Crozes was a lesser terroir, but I had no idea how much less so.
Wine Route had been Graillot's importer for years, but the selection was always haphazard. After the 2000, they skipped the excellent 2001 and brought in the 2002, a much maligned vintage. With various discounts and a surprisingly high score from a local critic, they managed to sell off their stocks. The next vintages were 2006, 2007 and 2011. And things stopped there, until Daniel Lifshitz and Bourgogne Crown has brought in the latest available vintages, 2017 (the red Crozes) and 2018 (the white).
Graillot is a benchmark for Syrah's capacity for sensuality and sheer beauty. No Crozes I have drunk over the last 18 years was ever quite as good as Graillot's, including the ones made by his son Maxime at Domaine des Lises - well made, but a softer style, less sexy, less impressive. Maxime and his brother Antoine have been in charge since 2008, although Alain still works alongside them. There has been no drop in quality or a stylistic shift, judging by the 2011 Crozes and Saint-Joseph.
The 2017 marches on to the house style: a plush, yet firm style, sensual and almost Bourgogne-like in texture. Cote-Rotie would also be an apt reference. The fruit is ripe without losing form and structured. The 2017 is still so young as to be somewhat one-dimensional, but it hints at depth and potential. The nose is full of tell-tale black pepper and violets, the fruit supported in mid-palate by acidity until the tannins assert towards the end. It's sappy in a youthful way and already a joy. If you're anything like me, you'll succumb to a curiosity too great to battle, but this'll be even better in 5-7 years (I've had a 14 year old Graillot Crozes that was still vigorous with no sign of slowing down).

“The kids are growing up—different from their parents but the same in so many ways…”
Hawken Trent. So polite. So sweet. Such an upstanding young man. A virgin, too, I hear. He never gets naughty with a girl. Probably because Jesus told him not to. And now here he is, trying to be the hero by protecting another girl from me. He calls me a bully. Irrational. Unreasonable. A criminal. He can call me anything he wants, I’ve heard worse. And he can try to stand between me and my money, but he’s never had to fight for food. That rich, clean, school boy doesn’t have what it takes.
I surprised her. You should’ve seen her face. Just because I don’t have a record, honey, doesn’t mean I’m clean. It just means I’m better at not getting caught. That is until I realize I might’ve actually gone too far this time. She’s there. I’m there. The scene of the crime. It’s dark. The police show up. We have no choice. We run. Down High Street, into Quinn’s bake shop, and I pull her through the entrance to the old speakeasy that everyone forgot was here decades ago. The door locks, the cops circle the building, never knowing we’re right here, and I’m hidden in plain sight, indefinitely, with someone’s who’s awful. Mean. Rough. Dirty. A thief. A delinquent. Until one night, lost in all of these rooms together, I don’t see any of those things anymore. She’s smart. Daring. Soft. Hot…
Everything’s changing. It’s this place. It does something to people. We have a silly urban legend in Shelburne Falls about mirrors. They’re a gateway. Don’t lean back into them. But we came through front first. I don’t care what the county records say. This was never a speakeasy. It’s Carnival Tower.

... or is that dueling (with one l)? Again, the wonders of English in two versions, American and the rest of us; Mr Webster and Mr Johnson. Anyone want to flip a coin? But I digress.
Bill Hohmann's name is familiar to many past and present WCG members. Bill posts regularly on a variety of boards, and if memory serves me has commented on the COGs at least once on national television in the US. Bill is no mean expositor when it comes to the Bible, and working from a conservative, evangelical perspective he is a talented "deconstructor" of hardline Herbalism.
Recently Bill took the bit between his teeth once again and took apart Dave Pack's Sabbath booklet. Indeed, he's done so in such detail that I suspect his critique is longer than the Pack original. The first two chapters appear online at AW Extra and the rest will follow soon.
Bear in mind that Pack's writing is a rewrite (one might even use the term rePACKaging) of the Herbal originals. Anyone who still thinks Which Day is the Christian Sabbath? is a bullet-proof treatise of Biblical truth might well learn a thing or two as well.
But, as Bill himself rightly warned me when he sent the document, it's a long one, so be prepared to buy in groceries.

The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC), has organized a one-day popularization engagement with Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) in the District on the ACC’s Compliance Management and Sanctions Enforcement Procedure Handbook for MDAs.
The Handbook was produced by the ACC Prevention Department with support from the Open Society Initiative for West Africa (OSIWA) for the implementation of systems and processes review recommendations in public offices.
Director, Public Education and Outreach Department of the ACC Patrick Sandi said, the Commission has realized that some public offices often reneged on their duties to implement systems and processes review recommendations, adding that the Handbook will help MDAs in implementing the recommendations emanating from systems and processes review exercises. The Handbook, when properly utilized, he added, will enable public officers to understand the framework, which they would adopt to fully implement the review recommendations. Mr. Sandi said the Commission is popularizing the Handbook to enable public officers to be acquainted with its contents, having held similar popularization exercises in the other regions of the country.
The Director also encouraged his audience to institute corruption prevention measures in their offices, describing them as one of the easiest and effective ways to address incidences of corruption in public offices. Prevention, he said, is one of the surest ways to promote and institute integrity, transparency, accountability, and further ensure improved service delivery in MDAs.
Mr. Sandi furthered that, the Commission is poised to invoke non-compliance sanctions provisions in the Anti-Corruption Act of 2008, as amended in 2019, against institutions which fail to follow recommendations produced after systems and processes review exercises. He therefore encouraged the public officers to get themselves abreast with the contents of the Handbook for proper utilization of same.
Senior Regional Prevention Officer ACC, Francis Kinnie Lassayo gave a detailed presentation on the contents of the Handbook and further encouraged MDAs to work to institute anti-corruption measures in their offices, noting “prevention is better than cure”.

Yesterday I spent time baking a Red Velvet Cake, something that has become a Christmas tradition. I baked it for a luncheon today with fellow retired teachers from my school. The first picture shows the cake after it was finished yesterday. The second picture shows it after it was cut today for serving.
Incidentally, this cake has been awarded a blue ribbon at our local fair for the past two years!:-)
There were nine of us who gathered at a fellow retired teachers home. We had a lovely time together. It was definitely one of the bright spots in the season.
Tomorrow - A "Susan Branch Christmas."

23Jesus answered him, Those who love me will keep my word, and my Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. 24Whoever does not love me does not keep my words; and the word that you hear is not mine, but is from the Father who sent me.
25 I have said these things to you while I am still with you. 26But the Advocate,* the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything, and remind you of all that I have said to you. 27Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled, and do not let them be afraid. 28You heard me say to you, I am going away, and I am coming to you. If you loved me, you would rejoice that I am going to the Father, because the Father is greater than I. 29And now I have told you this before it occurs, so that when it does occur, you may believe.

However, it was a signing that confused many people like Keith Law who was told by his sources that the prospect in question did not match the Orioles description that they were feeding the local media. Next, it was determined that in the Orioles haste at signing him, they violated agreements that were in place with Major League Baseball which resulted in the Orioles being banned from amateur events in the country, Kim Seong-min being banned from all amateur play, and the 500k deal to be nullified with negotiations suspended for several weeks. Additional looks seemed to prove the field correct and after the Orioles could restart negotiations, they brought him in and found him not to be the pitcher that was described to them from their scout. This left Kim Seong-min out to dry.
Recently, I used Google translate to read this article. However, much can be lost in translation, so I asked a friend of the Depot, Yoo Jee-ho, to provide a proper summary.
Kim is accepting a full baseball scholarship at Fukuoka University of Economics in Japan. The reporter met Kim on January 6, four days before he was to leave to join the school's training camp.To my knowledge, the Orioles' scouts are still banned from viewing KBA sanctioned events (they are permitted to scout KBO events or non-sanctioned events, including training). Also to my knowledge, the Orioles have yet to sign any free agents from Korea this past off season, but I cannot verify that.
Kim is still under the indefinite suspension by the Korea Baseball Association (KBA) for his contract situation with the Orioles. At first, he wanted to get his mandatory military service out of the way and join the South Korean military team, called Sangmu, (which, by the way, plays in the Futures League, a Korean equivalent of the minor league), but he was rejected because of that suspension.Kim also said he thought about quitting baseball entirely but his father encouraged him to stay patient and wait for an opportunity to come. Now, Kim said he's extra motivated to prove to people what a great player he is. He also said he'd like to return to Korea and play ball here in the future. His dream is to represent Korea internationally.

*In many ways animals are our masters. Their morphology different from that of humans invites us to question their correct response to Earth’s gravity and compare it to ours.
The only way to reach deep nature
of man is the non-human.
References : Les Mutants, Cartoon, En ce temps là ils passaient, Im/mobile, Bugs, Mutatis Mutandis and the film Tezirzek
In many ways, the qualities of organicity and organization of the animal movement are exemplary: accuracy, economy, elegance, adaptability, availability, etc.
Animals give to see a game of shape, various dynamics which, by their adaptation to the environment, their permanent survival, reveal us behaviors far from realism and human psychology. Far from the manifestations of thought and its expression through language, animality invites us to return to a way of primacy of actions and reactions, a way of regressing in order to progress, and to question the essential.
The animals are for the actor an opportunity of imaginary opening towards
The elements: water, air, earth, fire
The relationship to the element: leaning on the ground, air or water
Extra-daily dynamic modes (immobility, perfect slowness… fulgurance)
Mimetic possibilities with different animal families: cats, insects, birds, reptiles… and in the same family of different types: eagle, heron, sparrow, owl or duck
Various types of movement: from undulation to transport immobility
Specific behaviours: power relations, love parades, territorial defence, flight, kidnapping etc.
The exacerbation of the senses: smell, hearing, look, touch
Gaston Bachelard’s notion of territory or “house” in the sense of the poetics of Espace: the nest, the terrier, the hive etc…
Specific types of organization, communication, social hierarchies: hordes of wolves, life of anthill and hives, rat societies etc…
All these themes were an invitation to cross-reference the notions of anthropomorphism, zoomorphism, and cosmomorphism.
And even though in many ways animals are our masters, research invites us to discover that it is less about imitating the animal than about revealing, understanding and playing what is animality (often lost) in the human and work out the form of representation that can be given to this animality.

This is great to ask a man some questions – especially since the only thing my husband writes down is hockey scores and/or items he wants on his pizza. He doesn’t have a creative bone in his body and I would love to pick your brain just for a few minutes (or a week – we’ll see how you get along)
What do you think inspired you to begin writing? What is it about literature that appeals to you – or do you consider romantic fiction to be literature? Would you say it’s harder or easier for a man to write romance? What about the sex scenes? I think it’s interesting how psychologists say women are more into feeling and men are more visual. Does this affect your writing – whether it be romantic or not? Does it make your descriptions more detailed, or more black and white?
Through the eyes of a reviewer – to write must be an interesting challenge. What do you take away from reading other people’s books? Do you wish to have your books reviewed, and if so, by whom? What I mean is would you rather just a Tom Dick or Harry (or Sally, Mary, Jane, whatever) to read it, or would you want a review site? Professional reviews or volunteers?
Let’s hear what you have to say because I’ll be the first to admit I don’t know anything about the writing or reviewing world – as I’ve never done either one.

To begin with I made a card on my cameo silhouette for her, in the shape of a onesie, and I used another cute cute file to make the giraffe to decorate it and the word baby - suitable coloured in neutral yellow as she doesn't yet know if she's having girl or a boy.
The silhouette came into play again to make this super cute favor box which I used to hold the money we collected for her - we were going for a gift card, but given the number of stores going into liquidation we thought that the folding gift vouchers exchangeable at any store were a much safer option ;-) She didn't know what she wanted to get so at least now she can choose stuff she really needs. I stamped some decorative panels on 3 sides and on the onesie on top, stamped a sentiment on the front (Waltzingmouse Compact Sentiments) and then wrapped all around it with some dotted washi tape.
Finally, with some of the collection, I made her something fun and just a little bit larger than a tiny box to make her gift presentation a little more impressive! I'd seen these nappy cakes online and thought they looked like lots of fun and not that difficult to make - here's the finished article - both in its wrapped and unwrapped form.
It was quite easy to make - although rolling 130+ nappies into tight rolls took a little longer than anticipated and I had to run out for extra packs when I ran out half way through the 2nd tier!
The "cake" is filled with lots of useful baby products - talc, wipes, shampoo and a few little mummy toiletries too. You simply tape your tallest items into the middle and then you need a lot of elastic bands and it's then just a case of adding lots of your rolled up nappies until you get nice round tiers of "cake" Here's an in progress shot of the bottom two tiers. I wrapped some bibs around the the baby cream to make the centre of the top 2 tiers nice and round.
The "roses" which decorate the cake are actually just individual baby socks, rolled up and wrapped with a green pipe cleaner with a die cut felt leaf. The pink and green "baby" words are actually white chocolate lollies I made just by melting some white chocolate and adding food colouring into shop bought molds.
And here is a shot of the happy Mum-to-Be being surprised in our reception with her cake - she loved it although was a little disappointed when she realised it wasn't entirely edible ;-)

It's all a matter of perspective mr Brown the system was vandalised before National was in power, look at facts we have being sliding down the rankings for the last twenty years it's just that that the previous government made no difference .
Clearly our philosophies are different but I suspect we want to see the same result,has it ever occurred to you there is more than one way to get to the same answer . -
At the risk of swimming against the tide here......oh well it's a democracy,our education system is slowly (maybe quite quickly) but surely slipping down the OECD ranks and if you keep doing the same things the same things happen.
We are losing a whole lot of kids through the cracks ,yes their parents should step up first but that is not and will not happen for many kids today or tommorrow.So for Gods sake what is wrong with trying something new to try to see if there is another way to help these kids.
It's not as though we are turning every school into a charter school I went to the lowest decile college and have made it out the other side but many of my mates didn't many went to jail or are not here any more.i look at them and ask if it would it have been better under a charter or partnership school program and the answer is maybe but we won't know unless we try something new.It is about time this was about the kids not the teachers or more importantly the union lets see if we can make a difference to some of those kids rather than blocking every bit of change that is introduced.
No one is setting out to reduce the quality of the system I have faith that everyone is trying to get us to a better place our system is failing some kids lets try something new at least in a limited way.

Meritor Motorsports Update
Paul Noakes and the Meritor Motorsports TAFC racing team continue to mix it up on the NHRA Lucas Oil Divisional trail this summer. Here is the latest on that London Ontario-based team’s standings posted by Jay Johnston….
After completing seven of our ten scheduled races for this season we are #15 in the National point standings and #7 in the Divisional points. This is not what we had expected, we ended last year on such a high note it was just assumed we would pick up where we left off. Things did start out on a positive note but as of late it has all turned south for us.
The Columbus Ohio Divisional event started out with a Paul and I visiting the Newark Axle Assembly plant of Meritor for a day of meeting the employees and showing off the car. It was a great experience that reinforced the value Meritor Motor Sports brings to the brand. Over 500 tickets we distributed between the Newark and Florence facilities and if the weather cooperated the turn out at the track would be great.
After packing up Paul and I headed out to the track where NHRA had saved us a great pit space which would give all the Meritor people who attended the race easy access to us. As I mentioned before it was now up to the weather to make this a great weekend for everyone connected to Meritor Motor Sports. Unfortunately mother nature was not really looking to make this anything but a weather weekend. Hot and humid along with intense thunderstorms was what we got and only the truly committed fan was willing to come out. We finally got our first of two (rain shortened) qualifiers in Friday night. We were in second place when it was all over posting a 5.85 second elapsed time at 252 m.p.h. We knew that that would not be good enough to keep us in the top half of the field but with the rain settling, in a second shot at the track was a long shot and having all three session next to impossible.
The rain let up enough on Saturday to get a second session in but this did not help us as the right lane could not hold all our power. We missed on the setup of the car and the resulting shake forced Paul to abort the run. When it was all said and done our Friday number got us the #6 spot and because of it we did not have lane choice. On the bright side the car did not suffer any major injury and our evening service was very routine.
Sunday rolled around again with changing weather conditions and that big question mark of could we get down the right lane. Very few good times were made in the right lane and we knew that was where we would be put by our first round opponent. Lance Van Hallen did indeed put us in the right lane, I’m sure he wanted every advantage he could get on us because if we got the tune up right, Paul and his starting line ability makes the Meritor Hotrod a tough race. Paul did his job and left first with a .023 reaction time to Lance’s .119 and for 200 feet the race was ours. 200 ft. is not a full drag race, again the car shook so hard that it deployed the fire bottles, popped the chutes and shut the car down. Another miss on the tune up, our race was over. Back to the computer to find out just what we are missing and then pack everything up for that long drive home.
On a positive note Marty Hetherington (marketing manager) of Meritor joined us for the weekend and had a fine experience at the track. It was not what we wanted for his first time but now he has a very good understanding of the sport, commitment necessary and the thrillers it offers. Andy Bohl the #1 qualifier at the event ended up the winner posting the lowest elapsed time of each round of eliminations as he scored his second event win of the season. He has a firm hold on the #1 position in the North Central Division for this year.
Our next event is Bowling Green Kentucky Aug 23-25 and by then we will have our answers.

I was really looking forward to trying out the Mostbet Live Casino Online in the UK, but my experience was far from positive.

The key symbol on the Nissan dashboard is an important indicator. It indicates problems with the vehicle’s keyless entry and ignition system. Understanding why this symbol manifests is critical, and you should seek to address issues as soon as possible. So, what are the reasons for car with key symbol on dashboard Nissan?
Key fob malfunctions or broader system failures will result in the key symbol. In this article, we’ll look at the most common reasons for the key symbol on the Nissan dashboard. In addition, we will provide you with information on how to resolve this issue. If you can solve the mysteries behind this symbol, you’ll be able to confidently navigate troubleshooting.
What Does The Car With Key Symbol On Dashboard Nissan Mean?
The car with the key symbol found on the dashboards of Nissan vehicles has one of two meanings. If the symbol is solid and consistent, it usually represents a key reminder warning. When the driver opens the door to get into the car, this warning appears. It reminds the driver that in order to start the vehicle, the car key must be inserted into the ignition.
If the key symbol is flashing on the dashboard, it most likely indicates a problem with the vehicle’s immobilizer system. The immobilizer system in Nissans is an anti-theft feature that prevents the vehicle from starting if the correct electronic key is not detected. A flashing key symbol indicates that the immobilizer is unable to communicate with the key. This may indicate a problem with the key, ignition switch, or immobilizer control unit.
Why Does the Key Symbol Appear On Nissan Dardboard?
The key symbol on the Nissan dashboard serves as an important warning indicator. This issue could be caused by a low key fob battery; system issues:
Key Fob Battery Low
A low or depleted battery in the key fob is a common cause. Furthermore, malfunctions or damage to the key fob itself can cause the key symbol to appear, necessitating repair or replacement.
Another possible cause is a breakdown in communication between the key fob and the vehicle’s electronic system. This communication may be disrupted by interference or faults in the vehicle’s electronic components. The key symbol appears on the dashboard as a result.
A problem with the car’s keyless entry and ignition system can also cause the key symbol to appear. This could necessitate a more thorough diagnosis and repair by a qualified mechanic or dealership.
How To Fix The Car With Key Symbol Nissan On Dashboard?
You may fix this problem by focusing on potential problems with the vehicle’s keyless entry and ignition system. To address and resolve the issue, take the following comprehensive steps:
Examine Key Fob Battery
Let’s take a look at the battery inside the key fob. A key symbol is frequently used to indicate a low or depleted battery. Replace the battery with a new one, following the instructions in your vehicle’s manual.
Inspect the Key Fob
Examine the key fob thoroughly for any visible damage or signs of malfunction. If the key fob is detected, consider replacing it to ensure optimal functionality.
Reinitialize the Key Fob
Some instances of communication breakdown between the key fob and the vehicle can be resolved by reinitializing the key fob. Refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual for specific instructions on how to reprogram or reinitialize the key fob.
Check for Signal Interference
Signal interference from adjacent key fobs or other electronic devices may interfere with communication. Check that there are no potential sources of interference in the immediate vicinity.
Inspect the Vehicle’s Electronic System
If the problem persists, look into the car’s electronic system. Check for blown fuses related to the keyless entry system, as this could be the source of the issue.
Consult the Vehicle Manual
For model-specific troubleshooting steps, consult your vehicle’s manual. You can find detailed instructions tailored to your Nissan model in the manual.
Visit a Dealership or Mechanic
When self-diagnosis and troubleshooting are insufficient, it is best to seek professional help. Visit a Nissan dealership; they have the knowledge and diagnostic tools to identify and repair more complex electronic system issues.

Should I Drive Car With Key Symbol On?
When the symbol illuminates, it indicates that there may be issues starting the car or using keyless entry features. In some cases, you may still be able to drive the vehicle, but it is critical to address the underlying issue as soon as possible. It aids in the prevention of potential problems and the proper operation of the vehicle’s systems.
Consider the following before attempting to drive the car:
Check the Owner’s Manual
For more information on the meaning of the key symbol, consult the owner’s manual. Additionally, you should be able to find specific instructions on whether it is safe to drive with the symbol illuminated.
You should attempt to replace the key fob battery if it seems to be the source of the issue. See the handbook for details on how to change the key fob’s battery.
Seek Professional Advice
If the key symbol persists or you experience difficulties while driving, it is best to seek professional help. Ignoring the warning could result in additional issues with the vehicle’s keyless entry and ignition system.
If the underlying issue is not resolved, driving with the key symbol illuminated at all times may become dangerous. To guarantee both your safety and the car’s correct operation, you should take care of the issue as soon as possible.

It’s not uncommon for a small business to experience situations where they need additional cash to overcome a temporary cash flow gap. This can be true even for those businesses that set aside a cash flow cushion within their business bank accounts in anticipation of unexpected short-term expenses. In spite of this extra preparation, there are still situations where a business might need the extra capital available via a temporary cash flow loan.
Although this type of financing is not best suited for meeting long-terms needs for capital, there are reasons a business might consider borrowing to meet a short-term cash flow need (provided they have the resources to make the periodic payments. Here are some use cases where a temporary cash flow loan might be a consideration:
- Bridging a seasonal cash flow bump: Many seasonal businesses sometimes require a little extra capital to meet expenses as they move from one season to the other.
- Unexpected need for additional capital: It’s not uncommon for businesses to experience unexpected expenses like a major plumbing problem or other maintenance issue they might not have the cash flow to cover.
- New project start-up costs: Ramping up for a new project or a new customer contract sometimes requires additional resources that might exceed a business’ ability to cover with cash flow, but will be recouped in 60 or 90 days.
- Emergency repairs to business-critical equipment: When equipment necessary to the operation of your business fails, it likely doesn’t make sense to wait several weeks to start repairs. A temporary cash flow loan can be a good way to access capital to start those repairs right away.
- An opportunity to purchase quick-turnaround inventory at a discount: A short-term loan could be a good solution to take advantage of an opportunity to purchase inventory that has the potential to increase profits.
As mentioned above, sometimes the need to access capital quickly could be to take advantage of an unforeseen opportunity to increase profits. For example, responding quickly to the opportunity to purchase inventory at a discount or launch a needed paign. A temporary cash flow loan probably won’t make sense for every business or business need, but can be beneficial to generally healthy businesses that need access to capital quickly and have the means to repay the loan over a short period of time.
We understand the cash flow limitations that small business owners sometimes experience, including the unique challenges faced by seasonal businesses
When borrowing short-term capital, you should be aware that the periodic payment will likely be higher than a loan with a longer term, but the overall cost of the interest, fees, and expenses could be lower. The Electronic Transactions Association (ETA) surveyed a group of small businesses and found that when meeting a short-term need, they wanted to minimize the total loan cost to maximize ROI potential.
Loan purpose, or the business need your trying to meet, is a good way to determine the type of financing that makes sense for your business. Meeting a temporary cash flow need requires a different approach than borrowing to purchase a heavy piece of equipment, expand into a new location or meet some other long-term capital need. The ETA survey respondents also suggest that those small businesses anticipate a 5X return for every $1 borrowed. In other words, they’re leveraging short-term borrowing to take advantage of borrowed capital to increase the ROI in their business.
As a result, 57 percent chose a six-month loan with a higher APR over a longer-term loan to minimize total interest costs, fees, and expenses
We make temporary cash flow loans that are based upon the overall health of the business rather than solely on the personal creditworthiness of the business owner. An OnDeck loan is not a merchant cash advance, but a small business loan that can be used to meet many cash flow needs.

Movie Review: 1917 (2019)
Sam Mendes’ “single shot” conceit lends a dreamlike quality to the movie, doesn’t it? That sense, in a dream, when you’re in one place and you turn and you’re in another? One setting falls away for the next without explanation.
Here, because the camera follows our protagonists, Lance Corporal Schofield (George MacKay of “Captain Fantastic”) and Lance Corporal Blake (Dean-Charles Chapman, Joffrey’s kid brother on “Game of Thrones”), in their journey to call off a British attack and save 1600 men, we’re following them every step of the way, so we don’t have the cuts and fade outs from one scene to the next. They walk 100 yards or so and they’re in the next setting. Sometimes they don’t even have to walk. When Blake is stabbed in the stomach by the German pilot, and Schofield is holding him as he dies, Schofield is alone, horribly alone. Then two soldiers suddenly appear and help him move the body. As they do this, we see more men, and then the camera pans back and we see an entire regiment. When did they arrive? How did we not hear them coming?
Schofield goes with them until their vehicles can’t get past a bombed-out bridge near Ecoust-Saint-Mein; but Schofield can. He says goodbye, climbs onto the remains of the bridge, and makes it halfway across when a German sniper on the other side starts shooting at him. So the men in the regiment return fire. Kidding. Schofield has gone maybe 50 feet, in maybe 30 seconds, but the regiment is already gone. That part of the dream is over. He’s alone again. Horribly alone.
A river runs through it
It’s a shame the way awards season is set up. We hear about critically acclaimed movies a zillion times before we have the chance to see them, so we go in with high hopes. I saw “1917” last week with my wife, knowing it won the PGA for best film, and the DGA for best film, making it the frontrunner to the win the Oscar for best film. Afterwards, we looked at each other and went, “It’s good.” Long pause. “But...”
It’s a directing feat more than anything. The nonstop quality means we’re on the edge of our seat for most of the film. There’s breathers in the dialogue but then the dialogue goes, too.
Why these two for the mission? Blake is chosen because his brother is in the battalion that might get slaughtered, and he picks his mate before he knows how perilous the assignment is. Why just two for the mission? The man who sends them, Gen. Erinmore (Colin Firth), quotes Rudyard Kipling: “Down to Gehenna or up to the Throne, He travels the fastest who travels alone.”
Me: But they’re not alone; they’re together.
Me, a beat later: But you need two people on screen. For dialogue.
Initially, in silence, they traverse the grim realities of No Man’s Land, where the unclaimed corpses of man and beast lie rotting; then they jump into the German trenches, which are abandoned, and—hey!—so much nicer than ours. The trench is also boobytrapped, which Schofield spots; but a rat, a literal rat, trips the wire, the place caves in, and Blake saves Schofield. It’s the opposite of what we think will happen. Schofield is taller, leaner and braver; he’s already got the medal that Blake envies but he thought so little of it he traded it for a bottle of wine. But here it’s Blake to the rescue.
Then it’s onto the farmhouse, which after some suspense they determine to be abandoned, and where, with detached interest, they watch an aerial dogfight between two Brits and a German. The German, outnumbered, goes down smoking, and ... is it coming this way? No. YES! Inexplicably, after he barrels into a barn, they rescue the pilot and debate whether or not to mercy kill him. Why not just kill him? He's the enemy. Instead, he kills Blake while Schofield is fetching water.
Me: I guess you don’t need two people on the screen for dialogue.
But, of course, even as Schofield retreats into silence, an entire regiment arrives, gabbing away. Before, the mission was to save not only the 1600 but Blake’s brother. Now it’s also to make sure Blake didn’t die in vain.
Is the second half of the movie a bit much? After Schofield kills the sniper but falls back down the stairs and knocks himself out? The shots of—is it a village?—are eerie, masterful, and reminiscent of the Do Lung Bridge sequence in “Apocalypse Now,” but the whole thing gets both surreal and unreal. Schofield is fired upon, ducks into a basement where he comes across a pretty Frenchwoman and a baby—but not her baby. He leaves them food. To escape a drunk German soldier, he ducks behind a pillar, only to come face-to-face with a young, sober German soldier, whom he chokes to death. The drunk tries to shoot him, several others give chase, so Schofield jumps into a raging river, down a waterfall, pulls himself up over a dozen, rotting, soggy corpses, walks in a daze through the woods, and plops himself down among a regiment listening to one of their own singing a high, plaintive, mournful song.
Guess what? It’s the battalion he’s looking for. That’s how he finds them.
We should all get swept along such rivers.
There’s a few such false notes in the film, and the entire “single shot” (which isn’t a single shot) conceit creates a veneer of same for me. It felt too gimmicky for the surroundings. The casting of the officers was a gimmick itself. Our boys are tasked by Mr. Darcy, pointed in the right direction by the Hot Priest, given a lift by Merlin, so Schofield can deliver the message to Sherlock Holmes in order to save Robb Stark. It’s Masterpiece Theater. Nice, anyway, that the Starks and Lannisters are not only getting along, they’re now related.
“1917” is based on Mendes’ recollections of the recollections of his grandfather, who fought in the Great War. I like how it begins and ends with Schofield dozing under a tree. I wanted to like it more.

Light is not just light
When looking for LED loupes light to use in dentistry or medical applications you should consider more than just aiming for maximum light intensity. Having the right light at the right spot is vital both in terms of good vision and protecting your eyes from glare and harmful light. Loupes and light are interdependent and choosing the right headlight solution is almost as vital as choosing the optimum loupe solution.
When choosing ExamVision as your surgical loupes/dental loupes and loupes light supplier, your local dealer will arrange a thorough introduction on how to get the best results. Your loupes will be customised to match your working distance, height and ergonomic needs, and you will be guided in how to attach and focus your LED light for loupes to achieve the maximum benefit. So, contact your local ExamVision dealer for advice and guidance when choosing both loupe and light to fit your optical needs perfectly.
In all ExamVision loupes lights, we use “neutral white” (≤5.000 to ≤6,500 Kelvin) LEDs for the most natural lighting possible. When considering LEDs with higher Kelvin (more blue light) than the ExamVision Focus and Essential range, remember that this means consequently higher lux (or foot candles), but it also means more unnatural light, eye strain – and risk of retinal damage.
Our precision-engineered ”Connect” system fixes the LED headlight to your loupes, sliding smoothly on and off, and maintains the light in a stable manner. A locking mechanism allows you to keep the light permanently attached to your loupe, if required.
Light intensity (Lux or Lumen)
Lux (lx) is used for measuring the light intensity or brightness of a light source. There is a general perception that the higher the lux, the better the light. But this is not the case. The maximum lux-level of most LEDs (in the centre of a light, often called hot-spot) is around 30 or 40,000 lux, often measured 20-25 cm from the LED diode. But the real challenge is to get the right quantity of light at the right place in a real working situation. Because, too much light can create glare and damage your eyesight if being exposed to it over longer working hours. Obviously, too little light is just as bad.
Lumen (lm) also indicates the total amount of light emitted from a light source, where Lux is used to measure the amount of light output in a specific area. In other words – 1 Lux is the same as 1 Lumen per square meter.
In general, a loupe light intensity around 10-20,000 lux at an average working distance of 35 cm – evenly distributed across the beam – is perfect for most dental procedures. Glare (from reflective surfaces) is reduced, protecting your eyes, and the LED headlight fitted to the loupe will, together with the normal clinic/background light, be fully adequate to achieve a good and clear vision. Medical procedures in body cavities will often require higher lux, plus a surgeon is often standing, so the working distance is longer. When purchasing an ExamVision loupe and loupe light solution our experts will help you find the perfect fit taking into consideration all your professional needs.
Colour temperature (Kelvin)
The colour temperature is measured in Kelvin. Colours over 5,000 K are known as ‘cool’ colours, whilst colours of a lower value on the same scale are called ‘warm’ colours.
Visually, a higher value gives the appearance of ‘blueish-white’ – similar to a cold, stark, clinical setting. This has been proven to increase productivity and visual acuity, keeping you alert and focused. These colours provide the dentist or surgeon with the truest tissue colour rendition.
If you want concentrated LED loupe lighting that is perfect to work with in surgical and medical procedures and examinations, you should choose a colour temperature of “neutral white” (around ≤5.000 to ≤6,500 Kelvin) for the most natural lighting possible. When considering LEDs with higher Kelvin (more blue light), please remember that this means consequently higher lux in your medical headlight, but it also means more unnatural light, eye strain – and increased risk of retinal damage from harmful UV wavelengths. For this reason all ExamVision surgical headlight and dental headlight, are kept within the ≤5.000 to ≤6,500 Kelvin range.
Colour rendering (CRI/Ra)
The colour rendering value of a light source is measured in CRI (or Ra). Generally, the better you want the colours to be reproduced, the higher a colour rendering value you might choose. LED headlights used in dental and surgical loupe applications are aimed for achieving better vision and secondarily for colour matching.

Expect the unexpected!
As suggested by my host in Alembon the day before, 8:00am I was downstairs for breakfast. Got to taste all the home made compote she does and home baked cake as well.
After breakfast I started packing. I confess, this is one of my weak points and something I definitely need to get better at. The Camino de Santiago has taught me a few lessons last year, which I seemed to have forgotten, but the Via Francigena is being quick at reminding me of them.
Before I left home I packed everything according to item type, e.g. clothes and footwear all in one pannier, electronics in another, 1st aid kit and items of personal hygiene in another and so on…
The thing is, when you are on the move and need something you don’t want to be opening several different panniers to get items you may need. The lesson I learned on the Camino was to pack a pannier with the most likely things you are going to need during the day (in the case of the Camino I packed it in a rucksack, as I had only 2 panniers then, where I now have 4), so you’ll only need to open one bag during the day, unless something out of the ordinary happens, which is not uncommon. I am, therefore, attempting to change the packing accordingly and moved several items around the panniers.
When I finished packing everything (took me about 25 min… yes, I am slow) brought everything downstairs, where the bike was, and started to load them in the bike. About 15 min later, when all panniers and the camping bag were loaded and fastened, I realised I was missing my Cateye cycling computer, which I thought I had placed in the handlebar bag together with the Garmin Edge 810. It wasn’t there. Went back to the room and searched everywhere as I knew I had it the day before… couldn’t find it. There was only one option left: Search in the panniers, which, as I mentioned before, were already loaded in the bike. I’ll give you one chance to guess if it was in the 1st pannier or in the last. Did you guess? Of course it was in the last. It must have fallen in the pannier as I was rearranging the packing. Altogether, I literally spend 1h looking for the damn thing. That meant I left the B&B only around 11:30am. For a pilgrim this is almost time of arrival, not time of departure. Anyway… need to give no excuses to anyone as I am alone, but it was a bit stressful. My own fault.
From Alembon I rode to Licques, where I managed to get a stamp from a water park there, as everything else was closed. Then to Tournehem-sur-la-Hem, where there was also nothing open. Not to say nothing, the church was open, but there was no one in it. From Tournehem my next destination was Thérouanne, where, according to my host the day before, there was a pilgrim’s hostel, but… everything was closed. I wasn’t planning to stay there anyway, as I wanted to ride more, so I rode further to Amettes where there is another hostel with special rates for pilgrims (€13/night). Guess what? Closed!
In all the villages I rode through everything was closed. Even the petrol stations were closed. if I wanted to setup camp somewhere I would have to go hungry as I couldn’t find anything open to buy food. I also couldn’t get any stamps on my Pilgrim’s credential which, upon arrival in Rome, is the document you have to show.
So I decided to continue riding to Bruay-la-Buissière as I knew it was a bigger town and there was bound to be something open. As I got there I asked several people about “auberges” or hotels but I couldn’t find any near, so I turned to Google which offered me a few, with one of the cheapest being the Ibis Style in the outskirts of town. Had to ride another 4 or 5 Km to get there and the daily rate wasn’t the €53 Google suggested, but €69 with Breakfast. By that point it was late and I was too tired to go searching for something cheaper, so that is where I stayed. The room was great and the hotel was near several restaurants. Had a really good meal at the 3 Les 3 Brasseurs.
When I left Alembon in the morning, the day was a bit unsettled and that made me forget to pass on the sunscreen on my skin. I live in the UK, so this is something we use very little there 🙂
The sunscreen was on the bottom of one of my panniers, which I really didn’t want to take off the bike again. The result was a really bad sun burn and fever at night which made for an uncomfortable night. I should have stopped to get the sunscreen… lesson number… ? (who’s counting anyway).
Well, that was it. I’m attaching a few pictures to this “post by email” which I hope will be self-explanatory. If you have any questions, just drop me a comment.
Before I close the post, have you made your donation to Mind UK, which is the charity I am sponsoring during this ride? Common, 20 quid will not be much at the end of the month and it’s all for a good cause.

Hundreds gathered at the Bethesda Central Farmers Market on April 13 to celebrate Food Waste Prevention Week, hosted by the county’s Department of Environmental Protection (DEP).
The event showcased the county’s Food Scraps Recycling Drop-Off Program and encouraged locals to turn their leftovers into something greener.
The idea? Make it easy and even enjoyable for people to compost their food scraps while shopping for their weekly groceries.
“This is the cleanest, easiest way to deal with food scraps,” said Montgomery County Executive Marc Elrich. “You can feel good about what you’re doing but it helps the environment and it helps the county achieve its zero waste goal. I think it’s good on so many levels.”
The Food Scraps Recycling Drop-Off Program is part of the county’s ambitious plan to move toward zero waste, aiming to lead by example for the state and the nation.
That means rethinking what goes in the trash and eventually closing the county’s waste incinerator.
“We are working to make it easier and more convenient for residents and businesses in the county to recycle their food scraps,” said Eileen Kao, DEP’s waste reduction and recycling chief.
And that convenience comes with options. DEP currently offers four food scrap drop-off locations at farmers markets throughout the county Bethesda, Silver Spring, Olney and Derwood.
“Currently we have four drop-off locations in the county, we happen to locate them in farmer’s markets,” said Kao. “We have this type of drop-off in Silver Spring, Olney, and also in Derwood.”
Even better, many of these market locations such as Bethesda, Silver Spring, and Olney stay open year-round.
“We purposely have chosen these locations to make it easy and convenient and as accessible to as many residents of single family homes and multifamily apartments and condos as possible and these locations have open weekend hours,” Kao said.
From coffee grounds and eggshells to leftover lasagna, cheese rinds, and even fish bones,most kitchen scraps, including fruit, veggies, dairy, and meat, are welcome at the county’s compost drop-off bins.
Bethesda resident Charlie Richmond, a fan of the program, summed it up best.
“We’d love not throwing it in the trash. We also aren’t really prepared to do it in our backyard. The idea of having individual trucks running around the county to pick my little bucket didn’t make a lot of sense. We are coming to shop anyway so this is great.”
Food Scraps Recycling Drop-Offs operate during the same times as the farmers markets. Food scraps can be dropped off year-round at these three farmers markets:
- Bethesda Central Farmers Market. Sundays, 9 a.m.-1:30 p.m. 7600 Arlington Road, Bethesda.
- Downtown Silver Spring Market. Saturdays, 9 a.m.-1 p.m. 1 Veterans Plaza, Silver Spring.
- Olney Farmers and Artists Market. Sundays, 9 a.m.-1 p.m. Maryland Route 108 and Prince Philip Drive, Olney.

Nationwide, the measles outbreak shows no signs of slowing down. The latest report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) shows measles has infected more than 600 people in 21 states and the District of Columbia. Officials say about 97% of the people infected were unvaccinated or their vaccination status was unknown.
MCM spoke with Dr. Fabian Sandoval who is President and Chief Executive Officer of Emerson Clinical Research Institute in Washington, D.C. He said the best way to prevent getting measles is for people to get the Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (MMR) vaccine.
Maryland has three cases so far this year, one in Howard County, and two more in Prince George’s County. State health officials say each of the patients in Maryland traveled internationally. The Maryland cases are not related to each other nor are they connected to the bigger outbreaks occurring in places like Texas and New Mexico. So far, no one in Montgomery County has contracted measles. Last year, the County had one case.
County Immunity Levels
MCM spoke with Montgomery County Health Officer, Dr. Kisha Davis. She said the vaccination rate for measles in children is well over 97% in the County.
“It toggles between 97% and 98%. The rate we want to get at for herd immunity is 95%, so we are well above that in both private and public schools. That is very reassuring,” Davis said.
However, she cautions some groups remain vulnerable to contracting measles. They include children under a year old, people who are severely immunocompromised, and people who are unvaccinated.
Children can get their first MMR dose when they are between 12 and 15 months old. They usually get their second dose between 4 and 6 years old. Doctors say one dose is 93% effective at preventing measles. Two doses are 97% effective.
Older adults who may not know if they had measles as a child or are unsure if they ever had a measles vaccine can get tested to see if they have immunity.
“I think it is important to think about this area. We live in an area where folks travel a lot. I think in your day-to-day life, you’re not really at high risk of contracting measles here because we have high vaccination rates. But if you are going abroad, and maybe questioning your vaccination status, I think you should have a conversation with your doctor about being vaccinated,” Davis said.
Dr. Alexandra Yonts is an infectious disease specialist with Children’s National Hospital. She had the following tips for people who may be traveling either in the United States or abroad:
- Check vaccination records for all family members
- Check with your pediatrician to confirm your children have received their age-appropriate doses of the MMR vaccine
- Check the CDC’s Yellow Book: Health Information for International Travel to see if there are any outbreaks or circulating virus where you are heading
- Adults born before 1957 are generally considered immune from measles, but people born after should verify their vaccination status
- Consult your pediatrician about your travel plans. Some children under 1 may be able to get an MMR vaccine before their scheduled vaccine date if they are traveling to a high-risk area
- Keep in mind it takes about 2 weeks to develop adequate measles immunity after the vaccine
- Pack hand sanitizer, disinfectant wipes, and extra masks
- Once you reach your destination, practice vigorous hand hygiene
- Avoid close contact with people showing signs of illness

Join Kylti on August 29, 2010, for its First Annual "Fly A Haitian Kite Day" event in solidarity with the Haitian people (see locations here). At exactly 4:53 pm, people gathered from around the world will fly their Haitian kites high in the sky to remember and honor the earthquake victims. This annual event will celebrate the rising of Haiti and the Haitian people from the rubbles of this terrible disaster.
The Kylti Kite (project) is a metaphor for Haiti's rising
From the rubble of its trouble
To a future that's creative and quite imaginable
Forging its own Aesthetic and Cultural Identity
In ways that are tangible
With the help of the human family
Through all the arts as its rightful destiny
Fly a Haitian kite in solidarity with the people of Haiti. All kites will be made in Haiti, and money raised will further Kylti’s arts and cultural projects in Haiti and internationally.
August 29, 2010, 4:53 pm (Haiti earthquake time).Where:
Community Gatherings Around The World
Maryland, New York and Florida:
Maryland will be the host for Kylti's Cultural Economic Development Forum. At the conclusion of this 3-day event, special VIP guests and forum attendees will join Kylti to fly the kites beginning at 4:53pm, the time the catastrophic earthquake hit Haiti.
Brooklyn, New York and Miami, Florida, where the largest numbers of Haitian-Americans live, will be two other main gathering grounds to fly the kites.
Haiti and the Dominican Republic
Kylti will partner with local businesses to sponsor kites for kids to fly with the rest of the world.
The Caribbean and The World
Kylti calls on all corporations, institutions, groups, family, friends, and individuals to join Kylti to fly a kite in support of Haiti, the Haitian people, and to remember the earthquake victims.
- To remember and honor the 250,000+ Haiti earthquake victims;
- Create jobs for artists in Haiti (this project will provide about 150 jobs);
- Bring the Haitian Diaspora and Friends of Haiti together as one; and
- To raise funds for Kylti’s cultural and arts projects.
Why Fly A Haitian Kite?
Fly a Haitian kite:
- For The Haiti Earthquake Victims
- For Hope
- For Peace
- For Change
- For Friendship
- For Unity
- For A Brighter Future
- For Our Children
- For Education
- For Health
- For Love
- For Inspiration
- And... To have fun with family and friends
Flying A Haitian Kite not only serves to remember the victims of the earthquake, but to symbolize Haiti as a country that will rise from the rubble and its history of political, economic, and social turmoil stronger than ever.
Flying a kite brings a smile to anyone who has ever flown one. This simple activity of flying a kite in the air has a therapeutic effect. The person is lost in the moment and experiences great pleasure and happiness.
A kite to Haitians, and many others around the world, represent joy, leisure, family, tradition, and art. It is part of Haiti’s culture that has lost its luster, beauty, and its power to bring people together. It is a tradition that Kylti wishes to revive and bring forth the wonderful memories flying a kite created for those who remember Haiti in its glorious days. In addition to bringing back the memories of days past, kite flying is exciting, fun, and it is culture experienced in a simple activity and form. More importantly, flying a Haitian kite will help bring the Haitian Diaspora and Friends of Haiti together (adults, kids, families) and unite them.
Video and Photo Documentation:
A short documentary of the project will be created from start to finish. It will show the process involved in making a Haitian kite, its production, distribution, and the simultaneous flying of the kites in several cities.
No doubt that the earthquake that hit Haiti on January 12, 2010, was the biggest natural disaster of all times for this impoverished country. In less than one minute, it took the lives of more than 250,000 people, and injured hundreds of thousands. Over a million Haitians lost their homes, thousands of kids are unable to attend school because they were destroyed in the earthquake.
In this tragic time for Haiti, the world came together and showed its humanity.
Haitians through this unconceivable lost of lives, property, and livelihood remain hopeful, resilient, strong, and dignified.
The Fly A Haitian Kite Day is a symbol of this humanity, courage, and unity.
Corporations, foundations, organizations, and individuals wanting to partner with Kylti, please visit our sponsorship page here.

Climate Migration and Equity
Inequality influences who can stay in climate-vulnerable locales and who can leave and thrive elsewhere. The world needs a plan that supports those climate refugees who can’t do either.
Wildfires. Floods. Hurricanes. For years, the consequences of carbon-fueled climate change have been upending lives and causing people to migrate. And those are just the sudden climate catastrophes.
The slower-moving disasters—sea levels that creep farther inland, temperatures that diminish crop yields, storms that dump more and more rain, and rainstorms that fail to appear at all—are even more likely to cause people to leave home and never come back.
These insidious climate impacts have already begun. Indigenous communities in Alaska have been watching their villages wash away for decades as permafrost melts at an alarming rate. Tribal residents along the coast of Louisiana lose a football field’s worth of land to the Gulf of Mexico every 90 minutes, due to rising sea levels and land subsidence, both of which are precipitated by the fossil fuel industry. In Bangladesh, rural residents are fleeing to the low-lying nation’s cities to escape frequent flooding and loss of farmland. Nations in the Pacific Ocean, like Kiribati, are calling for action as their islands slowly slip beneath the waves. The list goes on and on.
What Is Climate Migration?
In 2016, President Obama formally observed the relationship between climate change, migration, and sociopolitical instability in the “Climate Change and National Security” memorandum. The memo described the many impacts of climate change—from rising sea levels to food shortages to extended drought—that could “lead to population migration within and across international borders, spur crises, and amplify or accelerate conflict in countries or regions already facing instability and fragility.”
Two years later, the World Bank estimated that climate change would displace more than 140 million people within their home countries in sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, and Latin America by 2050.
“Climate displacement is movement, in part due to climate-related disasters, both sudden and slow-onset disasters, that are either temporary or permanent, within countries or across borders,” explains Ama Francis, climate displacement project strategist at the International Refugee Assistance Project (IRAP). Through their work at this New York City–based organization that fights for the legal rights of refugees, Francis is focused on addressing the structural inequalities—social, economic, or political—that shape a person’s decision or ability to move elsewhere. Those with fewer financial resources or those who are caretakers for others, for example, can’t as easily pick up and start somewhere new.
Climate change refugees
Across the world, the climate crisis disproportionately impacts Black, Indigenous, and other people of color, especially women. In fact, the United Nations estimates that women make up 80 percent of climate refugees. Not only are women, who are often caretakers, more likely than men to experience poverty, which impedes their recoveries from climate disasters, but the risks of gender-based violence against women and girls rise in areas disrupted by climate change.
Of course, the disproportionate impacts of climate change don’t end at the community level. Wealthy countries caused the climate crisis that is now making low-income countries less habitable. According to a report from Oxfam and the Stockholm Environment Institute, people with the top 1 percent highest incomes globally, a group of about 63 million, emitted twice the amount of carbon emissions between 1990 and 2015 as those with incomes in the bottom 50 percent, the equivalent of 3.1 billion people.
Needed: A global solution
After years of failing to acknowledge the links between migration and climate change, world leaders finally connected the dots in 2015 and decided to develop an integrated approach to solving both problems. They established the Task Force on Displacement at the 21st Conference of the Parties (COP21) in Paris, which paved the way for the creation three years later of the Global Compact on Safe, Orderly, and Regular Migration and the Global Compact on Refugees. The groups have started important conversations but have yet to take concrete next steps.
A big issue standing in the way of progress is a lack of funding for climate adaptation relative to mitigation, says Francis, a native of the Caribbean island of Dominica, which was devastated in 2017 by Hurricanes Irma and Maria. “What's really central for climate displacement right now is making sure that there are enough resources flowing toward adaptation, so that people not only have the option to move but also have an option to stay at home if that's what they want.”
This imbalance is exactly what Salote Soqo, the director of advocacy for global displacement at the Unitarian Universalist Service Committee (UUSC), is working to fix. By financially supporting frontline community groups in the Pacific that have been marginalized from mainstream funding sources, Soqo and the UUSC aim to help those who are either relocating now or likely will be in the near future. As an Indigenous woman of Fiji, where more than 40 communities are currently identified for relocation, Soqo laments the fact that global climate efforts haven’t focused on plans and preparations for such moves.
A video from Fiji’s National Disaster Management Office (NDMO) featuring residents of the village of Tukuraki three years after their relocation due to landslides.
Across the globe, the numbers of people being displaced keep climbing. According to a report by the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, 98 percent of disasters were related to “weather and climate” and internally displaced 30.7 million people in 2020. That year, Central America was particularly hard hit when two back-to-back Category 4 hurricanes, Eta and Iota, swept through, displacing at least 1.5 million people in Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua.
Soqo says, “We need to get more serious about human mobility in those spaces.”
Countries most affected by climate change
As the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s Sixth Assessment report makes clear, while the climate crisis is affecting everyone on the planet, it does not affect everyone equally. For example, countries in South Asia, tropical sub-Saharan Africa, and parts of Central and South America will feel much of the impact of deadly heat stress, but Europe and North America won't be spared.
And the IPCC authors write that flooding events due to rising sea levels could lead to “very high losses in East Asian cities." They also predict that "by midcentury, more than a billion people living in low-lying coastal cities and settlements globally are projected to be at risk from coastal-specific climate hazards."
Step it up, United States
Given the scale of these threats, the Biden administration’s publication of a 2021 report on the impact of climate on migration (released prior to the COP26 meeting in Glasgow, Scotland) came not a moment too soon. While it was the first U.S. government report of its kind, Francis says it was significant for several other reasons as well.
First, it recognizes that climate displacement is an issue happening right now—not in some abstract future world. Second, the report shows that the United States wants to figure out how to use new and existing legal pathways for climate-displaced people, such as through Temporary Protected Status and by expanding the list of eligible origin countries. And, lastly, it led the administration to set up a task force on the matter.
“This report really says to climate-displaced people, ‘we see you, you matter, there are things that the U.S. government can do to protect you,’” Francis says.
But while establishing the task force was a laudable step, the administration could do more to put forth solutions. After all, millions of people are getting caught in the climate crosshairs, and they have no time to wait for action.
The report also omits displacement concerns within U.S. borders. In the two weeks following Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the country saw the largest and fastest dislocation in the United States since at least the mid-1800s, with more than 1 million people fleeing the Gulf Coast region. And the recovery and return process was far more lengthy for Black New Orleanians than it was for white residents.
Indigenous groups all across the country have increasingly grappled with similar injustices—facing more extreme heat and less precipitation on their lands, generally, as a recent study found—and they’ve been left to navigate relocation processes without much guidance or financial support. Robin Bronen of the Alaska Institute for Justice, who has been advocating for displaced Alaska Natives for decades, is frustrated by the inaction. “I think this is preventable, and we are not preventing this crisis,” she says. “We have zero capacity right now in the United States to deal with it.”
Finally, the report, which was led by the National Security Council, should have been more clear that climate change is the national security threat here—not the migrants themselves.
“There's a way in which climate displacement has been used to fuel fear of immigration and immigrants,” Francis explains. “The issue has definitely been co-opted by xenophobic actors who push this narrative that there are millions of climate-displaced people who are going to arrive in the United States, and therefore the U.S. needs to harden its borders.” Meanwhile, some elected U.S. officials have been finding new ways to block the resettlement of refugees and asylum seekers. IRAP has other ideas.
A path forward
In August 2021, IRAP released its own report that outlines policies the United States could adopt to address climate migration. Among other things, the organization calls for the U.S. Department of Justice to issue clear guidelines recognizing that environmental harm frequently combines with other drivers of displacement that qualify someone for refugee status. One important and immediate next step, Francis says, would be to train immigration officers and judges to recognize that some people displaced by climate change are eligible for refugee status under current U.S. law. “And that's something that the government can do without needing any new legal authority or any authorization from Congress.”
The report, endorsed by NRDC and other organizations, came on the heels of a UUSC policy brief that made recommendations, such as granting funds directly to frontline communities and changing the way the Federal Emergency Management Agency distributes aid in the wake of a disaster. In her own recommendations, Bronen suggests creating a national governance framework for climate relocation, which would include tribal governments and community-based organizations in decision-making processes. The solutions to such a wide-ranging and urgent issue will most certainly be a team effort.
“What's desperately needed is for all of us to pay attention to the places where we live and how they're changing, so that we can help inform the responses of how we're going to adapt,” she says.
“We tend to think this is going to happen to somebody else, and not us, because either we have enough money or we live in a place we think is going to be safe. And based on my experience of living in Alaska, I don't think anywhere is safe.”

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer.
It’s a chance to share News. A post to recap the past week, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up for the week on our blog.
What happened this week?
This week was okay. We’re still dealing with the mosquito issue and no progress this week, we’re still finding a few every day with some days being worse. I got my period migraine later in the week, the meds worked decently this time and I didn’t feel as bad as most months, so that was nice. Although I wish what caused it as I didn’t do anything else than normally.
I had an exciting formatting task to work on this week, one of my authors asked me to format an anthology. So that was fun, it was a bit short notice so I had to get most of it done this week, but luckily I managed that. I also did some work for another author, updating her books with new covers and blurbs on Goodreads.
What did I read this week?
Heartwaves was a 5 star read, really good book with super realistic and real characters.
Monster’s Past was a good one by a familiar author with cute banter between the couple.
Back to Belfast sadly didn’t work for me and wasn’t what I had expected.
This week I blogged about:
What to expect next week on the blog:
– Review: A Picture of Murder by T.E. Kinsey
– Review: Awakenings by Claudia Arseneault

Substance abuse can have a significant impact on your mental health. At Mending Minds, a mental health treatment center in Orange County, CA, we understand the challenges that individuals face when dealing with addiction and the negative effects it can have on their mental health.
When someone abuses substances like drugs or alcohol, it can lead to changes in the brain that can alter mood and behavior. These changes can increase the risk of developing mental health disorders, such as depression and anxiety. Substance abuse can also worsen the symptoms of existing mental health conditions.
In addition to the direct effects on the brain, substance abuse can also lead to other issues that can impact mental health. For example, financial problems associated with addiction can cause stress and anxiety. Relationship issues, such as conflict with loved ones or the loss of relationships, can also take a toll on mental health.
At Mending Minds, we understand that many individuals who struggle with addiction also have mental health conditions. This is known as dual diagnosis, and it can make recovery more challenging.
Our team is trained to provide comprehensive treatment for clients with dual diagnosis. We offer a range of services, including individual therapy, group therapy, and medication management, to help our clients address both their addiction and their mental health conditions.

Making social rights work for children
On the occasion of the International day for the Eradication of Poverty (17 October), Eurochild urges EU leaders to prioritise efforts to tackle poverty in childhood. More than one in four children are at risk of poverty or social exclusion in the European Union.
“Poverty in childhood creates a cycle of disadvantage that carries into future generations. No country, including the richest nations in the EU, can claim to be free from child poverty. The EU must use all its tools, be it the European Pillar of Social Rights, the European Semester or the Post 2020 EU budget to accelerate investment in children.” – Jana Hainsworth, Secretary General, Eurochild.
Eurochild’s latest report “Making social rights work for children” analyses the impact of the European Semester on children in 17 EU countries and offers three key recommendations:
1. Put social goals on a par with the economy and employment
The Social Scoreboard and common indicators measured by Eurostat monitor important social trends over time and between countries, for example child poverty, early school leaving, or childcare enrolment. These indicators should be given more weight when it comes to guiding Member States policies. Furthermore the EU can make better use of existing data by developing new indicators which give a more complete picture of children’s situation.
2. Make children an explicit and priority focus of the Semester
Ireland, for instance, has been recommended by the European Commission to offer affordable and quality childcare. It is helpful recognition that children’s learning and developmental needs are also dependent on adequate investment, good economic policy and budget planning.
3. Make the Semester process more transparent and inclusive
Eurochild’s Dutch members are particularly encouraged by language in the European Pillar of Social Rights which requires Member States to have national strategies on child participation that can help bring children’s voices into policymaking.
The report ‘Making social rights work for children’ also offers its own alternatives to the country specific recommendations in light of assessments by 22 Eurochild members.
For more information:
Head of Communications, Eurochild

Eurochild advocates for children’s rights and well-being to be at the heart of policymaking. We are a network of organisations working with and for children throughout Europe, striving for a society that respects the rights of children. We influence policies, build internal capacities, facilitate mutual learning and exchange practice and research. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child is the foundation of all our work.

Excellent IT Companys are rare to find more so now whereby every IT Company promises to deliver nothing but the best. The various advertisement you always see on screens should not deceive you in anyway. Most of them are just deceiving. It is obvious that a IT Company can market itself but will not meet your levels of satisfaction or the required standard of services. It is therefore a good thing if you take your time and seek a good IT Company by yourself. A good IT Company has several features that will direct you to choosing it. Below are some of the features that an excellent IT Company should have.
One of the most important aspect to check out is how the company operates and the standard of their services. You need nothing but the best of services and this means that the company you are going to settle for understand what their clients need. A good IT Company should put into consideration what their clients need and try as much as they can to satisfy this needs. Such IT Companys get to analyse what the needs of most of their clients are and ensure that they meet those needs in the most amazing way. You can take your time to go through most of the feedback provided by the different clients and that will help you understand whether that particular company offers the best of services or not. Most of the comments given in the comment section are always a true reflection of what the company’s services look like. Take a keen look in all that and make your final conclusion.
How do you feel when you decide to choose your IT Company whose manner of operation you do not trust? It will not be good when you select a IT Company that you do not even understand how it gets to operate and also the amount of money they will quote for the service you need. Therefore, find a IT Company that puts in light aspects such as their quotations, reviews from various clients and licensing status. This way, you will also be sure on the amount of cash you need to budget for the services you need among others. Having all these basics in your checklist will enable you land the best IT Company.
The next important point to consider is checking out on important credentials such as the licensing status of the company and its accreditations. No IT Company is allowed to run in any state without having a license. So incase you meet one that lacks the licensing, then be warned against choosing that particular IT Company.
A good IT Company should have skilled staff members. The service providers should show that they were trained from a well recognised institution and be able to proof their skills. If they perfectly proof their skills at work, then you are free to choose them and let them make use of their beautiful at your service.

Below is a news release from the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife.
Don’t wait until the last minute to apply for a controlled or premium hunt as the May 15 deadline falls on a Saturday this year.
The online licensing system will process applications until 11:59 p.m. on May 15, and license vendors will also be selling applications. But ODFW licensing staff will not be available to help hunters who wait until Saturday and encounter problems accessing their account.
“We are urging hunters to not wait until the last minute this year,” said Michael Hawkins, ODFW Licensing Services Manager. “The majority of applications come in during the last few days before the deadline and our hold and email response times peak. But because the deadline falls on a weekend, ODFW customer service staff will not be able to help you if you wait until Saturday to apply.”
It’s easy to apply online at MyODFW.com (click the green Buy a License button at top right corner). If you don’t already have an account but have preference points (or a Pioneer License, NW Goose permit or any other special certification), use the Verify/ Look Up feature to find your account. Remember to use an email you can actually access in case you need it to reset your password later.
After you login, go to Purchase from the Catalog/ Big Game Hunting to find the application for each series. You will be prompted to complete your hunt application and select your hunt choices (or get a Point Saver) in the checkout process. An annual hunting license is required to apply and can be purchased at the same time as controlled hunt applications.
Directions on how to apply online are here https://myodfw.com/articles/how-apply-controlled-hunt and more tips on using ODFW’s electronic licensing system are here https://myodfw.com/ELS
If you have problems with your online account, call Licensing at (503) 947-6101 or email [email protected].
You can also apply at a license sale agent (find list at https://myodfw.com/articles/where-find-odfw-license-agentsvendors) Remember to check store hours and don’t wait until the last minute as their lines can be long on deadline day.
As of today, 152,133 controlled hunt applications have been sold which is a 27 percent increase over the same date last year. Last year (2020), a total of 488,291 controlled hunt applications were sold, compared to 473,994 in 2019 (a 3 percent increase).
Hunting, fishing, and wildlife parking area sales increased last year when activities moved outdoors due to the pandemic. Angling license sales increased by 18 percent and hunting by 6 percent in 2020 compared to 2019. More sales occurred online via the new electronic licensing system too, with more than 53 percent of gross revenues coming from internet sales, up from 39 percent in 2019.
Big game hunting regulation changes for 2021:
A reminder on what’s changed for big game hunting in 2021 (see regulations here http://www.eregulations.com/oregon/big-game-hunting/ )
- All archery deer hunting in eastern Oregon is by controlled hunt.
- Eastern Oregon controlled archery deer tags are not valid in the western Oregon general archery season.
- West Cascade Elk general season has been moved to the second week of November.
- One continuous season for General Any Legal Weapon Western Oregon buck deer tag in the Coast and Cascade units.
- Bag limit for the Desolation Unit during the general archery elk season is now one bull elk.
- New California bighorn sheep ewe hunts in each of the John Day River and Deschutes River hunt areas. (Ewe hunts are not once-in-a-lifetime hunts, so you can still draw a ram hunt after drawing the ewe hunt. Sheep hunts are not based on preference points so you won’t lose points by drawing the ewe hunt.)
- Other new hunts, hunt name changes, and a few hunt number changes are highlighted in the regulations including a NEW Santiam Unit Late Traditional Bow controlled hunt.
- Reminder that Starkey Experimental Forest elk tags have been reduced from what is printed in the regulations.
Don’t forget about Premium Hunts
Finally, don’t forget to apply for a Premium Hunt—deer, elk and pronghorn antelope tags with a four-month season (Aug. 1-Nov. 30) and any-sex bag limit.
Like all limited-entry controlled hunts, applications are $8, and due on May 15. Premium Hunt tags also cost the same as other big game tags.
But the draw for Premium Hunts is not based on preference points, so everyone has an equal chance to draw each year. And unlike “once-in-a-lifetime” bighorn sheep and Rocky Mountain goat tags, Premium Hunts can be drawn again and again.
Premium Hunts are also considered additional tags—meaning winners can still hunt on their regular controlled or general season big game tag.
Both residents and non-residents can apply and both have an equal chance to draw.

The RNA 3D Motif Sequence Variability Server (R3DSVS) maps the given nucleotides to columns of a multiple sequence alignment and returns sequence variants in a variety of formats. This makes it possible to see how the sequence of a 3D motif varies across many species, including ones for which we do not have a 3D structure. R3DSVS can be used to study the sequence variability of individual nucleotides, base paired nucleotides, or small motifs.
This site is under construction as of September 2024, but seems to be working well.
In addition to R3D SVS, several other APIs are available, where one can input unit ids or loop ids or chain ids and get back useful information. RNA APIs

I always believe happiness will be gathered if we make others happy first. Seeing others succeed in life because of ourselves, will create contentment and satisfaction in our heart. Many who asked me where I get my motivation and energy everyday to be cheerful and happy. I told them it is easy. As long as you are willing to give outwardly, the world in return will give you the happiness and energy of life back naturally.
This was how I started my day to cheer a friend who is suffering from cancer and is on treatment currently. I sent Amrit a message while on the early run in my car, "My dear, how are you lately? Please be strong and have a strong mindset. I am sure you will make it. Please read my blog under this title, 'An ounce of courage to remove ton of distress'. It will help to build your strength." She replied, "Thanks uncle. By the way, I spend one hour reading your blog site. Very motivating. Thank you."
I received another message from a new friend whom I still have not met yet. The telemarketing executive from Citibank whom I had motivated about two weeks ago. I pushed him an extra mile to learn something more for himself. His message, "Blessed day, Robert I sell more effectively and more confident after I've spoken with you. Thank you Sir - Daniel Citibank."
I had a morning talk with our branch office. Sharing the title, 'Agent Philosophy' to some young agents I had not met before. Later in the afternoon, one of them sent me this message, "Hi Robert. Sim here. Thanks for your today great sharing with us. Many of your points are part of my life which is happening now. Hopefully I can achieve like you one day."
Thank you Amrit, Daniel and Sim. Your messages gave me strength. Although they were just text message in words, they created values and hopes for me. These are the little thought and appreciation which could motivate a person, including myself. If I had not started to think for them first, these positive force would not have gathered. Their sweet words really made my day and I am sure there will be more to come tomorrow. Don't wait for something to happen, rather make something interesting happen and you would be amazed how powerful they are.
I received this lovely phrase from Zarina who cares, "Sweet words are easy to say; sweet things are easy to buy; but sweet people are difficult to find."

Breastfeeding is fantastic in terms of feeding and bonding along with your child, however it takes a toll that is negative the areas you will ever have. For instance, intercourse. Exactly What had previously been an enjoyable task for both you and your partner might be feel uncomfortable or perhaps downright awful if you are breastfeeding. Before you give up sex forever (or until your kid is not breastfeeding anymore), understand that it’s completely normal and, in many instances, it could be fixed. So just why does breastfeeding make sex hurt? Blame your lovely hormones.
„Breastfeeding makes your estrogen amounts plummet in the very very first 48 hours after pregnancy,“ Dr. Sherry A. Ross, composer of She-ology: The Definitive help guide to Womens Intimate wellness. Period informs Romper in a job interview. She claims it really is great deal like menopause, filled with hot flashes and drench-your-pajamas-sweat. „Hormonal chaos hot ukrainian brides has begun that reduces your estrogen amounts while elevating your prolactin amounts, (prolactin being the hormone that promotes milk production) which ready your human anatomy for breastfeeding.“ This razor-sharp plunge in estrogen after delivery straight away causes your vagina to be thinner, less elastic, inflamed, and much more susceptible to damage, in accordance with Healthline. Also, „there is less blood circulation to your vagina, causing a decrease in vaginal lubrication,“ Ross describes. „Dryness, discomfort, burning, irritation, painful urination and painful sexual intercourse are typical signs.“ once more this might seem like a terrible side effects of breastfeeding, but it is not really uncommon (nor hopeless).
Lots of women encounter discomfort during sex while nursing, but as a result of social taboos this hasn’t been talked about the maximum amount of as yet.
Fortunately more ladies are talking up and talking for their physicians about this. At six weeks postpartum „its reported that 50 to 60 % of females suffer with painful intercourse, and a 3rd of females continues to have signs 3 months after distribution,“ Ross claims. To repeat, this is certainly roughly 1 / 2 of postpartum ladies pain that is experiencing sex. Ross claims painful sexual intercourse, clinically referred to as dyspareunia, can occur to breastfeeding ladies and ladies who choose to not breastfeed (although on a smaller level). It is all area of the postpartum package.
Numerous nursing females might find they are mostly during the mercy of haywire hormones, however, that does not suggest there is nothing they could do. Just a little lube can get a way that is long. „as time passes, persistence and only a little KY jelly, the real and emotional challenges of nursing and low estrogen will surely enhance,“ Ross states.
Also, both you and your partner might consider using a rest from intercourse and attempting once again if you are experiencing better.
Your spouse should comprehend if you communicate in their mind the manner in which you’re experiencing. Or, you could find pleasure in non-penetrative intercourse and brand new positions. It can not harm to explore (but you should if it hurts, stop what you’re doing making improvements).
Simply because sex hurts now does not mean it shall forever. As you can plainly see, painful sex while nursing is extremely normal and absolutely nothing become ashamed of. Fundamentally, in 2010 in your life will pass and you also will manage to experience pleasure along with your partner once more. Playing the body being gentle with your self goes a considerable ways towards your real and psychological data data recovery following son or daughter delivery.

2. Arrange ahead
As soon as you’ve set the date it is vital in order to make sure you’re ready. Zooming in from work will do absolutely nothing for the phone intercourse session. My advice would be to just simply just take some time upfront to ‘prep.’
Do whatever get’s you within the mood, candle-lit bubble bath, cup of wine, some fiction that is erotic? Do whatever it really is which makes you’re feeling sexy.
3. Dress when it comes to event

Telling your lover just what it’s you’re doing to your self is a complete must for brain blowing phone intercourse, then practice makes perfect if that’s something that you find a little daunting. Start small and work the right path up as your self- confidence grows.
5. Dirty talk calls for dirty terms
Here is the component the essential individuals fight with, utilizing language that you’dn’t normally usage can feel alien from the tongue, and that can prevent the standard of your phone sex session.

Follow these easy steps and you’re set for call after call of unforgettable phone intercourse going to help keep you going unless you will enjoy the deal that is real.

OPEN LETTER TO MEDIA
RE: Our Broken System Involving Juvenile Probation
*I encourage the media to look into these concerns and feel free to share the information that I’m stating and the frustration with detaining juveniles and Probation detention*
This past weekend the Stanton County Sheriff’s office was dispatched to a disturbance call involving a 14 year old female who is on probation and caused a disturbance in the rural family home to the point that her mother was so concerned with her safety that she locked/barricaded herself into her bedroom away from her daughter. The response by the Sheriff’s office was immediate and swift and upon arrival the 14 year old was taken into custody for being an Uncontrollable Juvenile and Disturbing the Peace (A jailable offense for all adults). She was detained and transported to the Sheriff’s office where state probation was contacted and required to do an intake on the juvenile and this specific situation. Again the 14 year old is already on probation for similar behavior and her actions have led to multiple law enforcement responses by the Sheriff’s office.
It should be noted that no juvenile can be incarcerated without the permission or approval of the probation office prior to an actual custodial hearing by a judge held days later. Therefore, whatever they decide we are stuck with. On this occasion it was determined the juvenile female would not be detained and therefore was to be released. At this time, she was taken home by a probation representative to the same house her mother feared for her life and called 911 for help. Our hands are tied because our Nebraska state legislature believes it knows best as to when juveniles can be detained in a juvenile facility. I would love to mention multiple incidents involving the same inability to detain and house dangerous juveniles within Stanton County and Northeast Nebraska, but I cannot because all juvenile records are sealed by the court after adjudication.
The problem is simple the “System is Broken” and needs to be addressed sooner than later by those that can make a difference. Law Enforcement officers for the most part are not a trained social worker or counselor, yet we are doing the best we can with the abilities we have and then only watch with frustration as the problem is sent home to where the problem often lies. You have 11 year olds recently involved in homicides in our larger Nebraska cities and they can’t even be charged or detained and are often sent home to parents that can’t or won’t take responsibility for them. I just don’t think the public realizes this issue and how large a problem it has become for every law enforcement agency in the state, no matter the size of the agency. Someone has to be responsible and often it’s only the fear of media attention that gets things done. I have threatened many news conferences to get immediate action and it usually gets something positive done immediately. I have been doing this job for 41 plus years in Nebraska and we used to be able to detain and jail juveniles as needed and it worked. Now we have no say and most agencies don’t even call probation anymore as they know the answer and don’t want to waste more of their valuable time.
Most probation officers that we deal with do a great job in a very difficult profession and they only get to play the cards dealt to them by those in Lincoln. Everyone deserves second chances, but giving problem kids and adults multiple chances and committing violation after violation before something more is done to correct their behavior is not the answer. As a steward of Stanton County funds, I don’t like to spend more than $200.00 a day sometimes to house a juvenile offender. But, sometimes you have to swallow hard to protect the community we serve. Another incident this weekend in Stanton also shows the ill-effect of Probation. A 31 year old male from Lincoln, had recently moved there from California after his prison release. He shows up in Stanton completely under the influence of methamphetamine and extremely paranoid. After contact with the Sheriff’s office he was transported by Norfolk Fire EMS to the Norfolk hospital where he refused treatment and caused another disturbance at that location. He also was on probation and when contacted about him, his PO seemed less than concerned and he wasn’t in Lincoln anymore. I believe the public needs to know these incidents happen all the time and maybe they just don’t care about that our “Broken System”!
I believe from my own youth and being a parent and grandparent that kids know right from wrong at fairly early ages and that consequences occur when you don’t act appropriately or follow rules no matter the size and development of your brain. The nuns and priest in my youth had no problem getting that point across and I thank them every day for helping me realize obeying the rules and law gets you a lot farther in life.

I have often talked about the need to align your hero’s actions against the character arc if a story is to be believable. I emphasised that the quality of a character’s actions depends on that character’s state of moral, spiritual, and psychological development. The hero can not defeat the antagonist until he has achieved maturity, often through pain and suffering.
But where and how does the writer incorporate this alignment?
The short answer is that the alignment should be checked at the pivotal points in the story – the introduction to the ordinary world, the inciting incident, the first turning point, the midpoint, the second turning point, the climax, and the resolution.
Indeed, the introduction to the ordinary world and the resolution present the sharpest points of contrast in the hero’s growth, being at the polar ends of his character arc. They help to set the scale for calibrating his growth.
It is now easier to align actions and events on a scale of lesser or greater effectiveness. The second turning point, for example, contains some growth in wisdom, certainly more than at the first turning point, but less so than at the climax, which delivers the maximum growth – if the hero is to defeat the antagonist.
“Character actions feel authentic when they arise as a result of the state of moral and technical knowledge at specific points along the character’s arc.”
In Edge of Tomorrow, Cage, struggles to defeat an alien enemy that can see into the future. Cage is killed, but his reality is reset, affording him an opportunity to try again. But to no avail. He keeps getting things wrong. He keeps dying. It is only when he lets go of his fear of losing the woman he loves and decides to sacrifice himself, that he is able to blindside the enemy. That moment is the climax of the story and represents Cage’s full maturation. His actions have been perfectly aligned to his character arc.
In my own novel, The Level, the protagonist perceives the truth about his inability to escape his environment only when he embraces his identity and uses it to defeat the antagonist. His previous actions have been ineffective largely because of his lack of self-awareness.
In both cases actions that lead to progress only occur when the deeper truth about a character’s inner life is exposed and understood.
Calibrate character actions along the pivotal points in your story to keep them in sync.

Our kitten, George, took her first few steps onto snow this morning. She he wasn’t sure what to make of it: with one tentative paw she touched the snow then ran back inside the house! Even hard-hearted old me found the scene very ‘cute’.
You’re probably not scared by white snow like our cat, but how would you feel if you awoke to see blue, pink or orange snow falling?! Welcome to the bizarre world of multi-coloured snow… Read more

Many targets I know have had fleeting fantasies about killing their rapist – the very satisfying belly slitting, a few low pops from a silenced gun, pinning him against the wall with a truck. In reality, although a few violent misogynists are killed by their targets in self-defence, very very few will ever face vengeful acts of any kind, let alone the fulfillment of such fantasies by their victims. Most victims are far more concerned with community safety, and even the rapist’s well being, than they are with fulfilling momentary fantasies like this.
Let’s contrast that with the way violent men will consider it their right, and a good, to act out their violent fantasies upon women and children. The women and children in their ordinary life will bear this brunt, or sometimes random targets, or war targets, or they may be the women and children whose bodies and images are captured in porn-making and prostitution.
I don’t think female DNA is any better than males (OK well maybe a little): the reasons for this contrast are social. Being on the receiving end of overwhelming male violence, we women often learn to have less faith in violent acts. In Canadian mainstream society, women acting out fantasies based on revenge for infractions of female bodily autonomy is also discouraged. For males, this may be encouraged, such as men being indulged when their “crimes of passion” are excused by such vagaries as “homosexual panic” when the target is male, or “she made a joke about my love-making abilities” or penis size, when the target is female. And when women’s sexuality is out of male control, then fathers, brothers, husbands and sons have long been invited to kill women, at various places and points in time on this planet. Men have been and still are regularly let off the hook to some degree for their violence, when their masculine “dignity” is affronted. There are no comparable type of “provocations” for women that would ever exculpate them or mitigate the justice system’s response to their murder of a man.
What this asymmetrical violence shows is that social conditioning and attitude makes violence happen or not. It is very far from inevitable.
I was moved to consider these facts again, reading the story of a male victim/vigilante, Patrick Drum, here.
It struck me that violence will always be the result of acting out fantasies of safety, as long as we primarily see safety as an individual matter. As long as we primarily see “safety” as physical guarding by a dominant male.
What if instead community took responsibility for creating safety by building a foundation of power and respect for women? This is shown to have the most powerful effect of all on reducing violence against women in societies. It does not involve heroic acts, big muscles, or death. It is simply a different attitude.
What if men gained faith that they could create safety by power-sharing with women? Right now we have all been processed by the propaganda machine that says safety resides in the arms race, looking out for number 1, and swift, violent responses to incursions. But clearer heads have identified again and again that the human societies that are the safest, the most peaceful, are those where women are respected as autonomous full human beings, and where power is truly shared between the sexes.
The buddhadharma says that “generosity produces peace” and as I interpret it as a Buddhist, this is the kind of situation referred to. Instead of placing our faith in male violence without end, what happens when dominant groups let go of colonial privilege, male privilege, etc.? When we let go of having to pump up our top-dog status, when we generously let go of our supremacy at all costs, a profound peace will dawn, a peace that was there all along.

A news story from January 2015 puts squarely into focus some of the challenges of privacy and open government.
The story centred on the Canadian legal information website CanLII, although the privacy issues it raises relate more directly to how government institutions protect personal information when seeking to comply with open courts and open government principles.
CanLII, a non-profit corporation that is managed by the Federation of Law Societies of Canada, is a tremendously important information resource in Canada. Since its inception, it has become instrumental in ensuring that Canadians have free online access to primary Canadian legal materials. It follows in the tradition of other Legal Information Institutes in the United States, Australia and Britain/Ireland. CanLII includes all Canadian and provincial statutes and regulations, case law from all federal and provincial courts, and case law from a growing number of administrative tribunals. Prior to CanLII’s appearance on the scene, these materials were found either on the shelves of law libraries, or were accessible through commercial databases that charged fees for access. In essence, they were not easily accessible to Canadians without significant effort or cost. In a legal system in which “ignorance of the law is no excuse”, and in which an ever-growing number of Canadians have no choice but to represent themselves in legal proceedings, this kind of public access seems essential. CanLII’s efforts to liberate these legal materials make an interesting story with plenty of open government lessons. (I have written about the evolution of CanLII here,).
The news story that broke in January related to a Romanian website that had scraped the content from CanLII and reposted it to another website hosted in Romania. In doing so, it allowed for the circumvention of technological measures put in place by CanLII that prevented Google from indexing terms found in court and tribunal decisions. These measures were put in place by CanLII largely to protect the privacy of individuals whose names and personal information may feature in court decisions. By contrast, the Romanian materials are fully searchable.
This situation raises several interesting issues of privacy and open government. At first glance, it may look like a failure of CanLII’s efforts to put into place effective technological measures to protect individual privacy. (CanLII has reportedly upgraded its technological protections, although the cases initially scraped from the site remain out of its control). But CanLII is really only the second line of defence. The first line of defence, is, of course, the courts and tribunals themselves that provide case law to CanLII as well as increasingly through their own websites.
The problem of “public personal information” is a thorny one, and it arises in this context as well as in many others. Public personal information is information that is legally public (government registry information, for example, or information in court decisions). While this information has long been public in nature, its widespread, immediate and limitless distribution was never contemplated in the pre-internet age in which decisions to make it public were made. Thus, there are important privacy issues surrounding how and under what conditions such information is made public, as well as how the public interest in openness should be balanced against individual rights to privacy in an internet and big data age.
In Canada, the open courts principle means that the proceedings of courts are open to public scrutiny – it’s a fundamental principle that justice must not only be done, it must be seen to be done. This means not only that, barring exceptional circumstances, court and tribunal hearings are public, as are the decisions reached in those cases. In fact, not only does this serve transparency and accountability values, the publication of court and tribunal decisions allows lawyers and members of the public to consult these decisions to better understand the law, and to learn how courts and tribunals interpret and apply legislation. In exceptional circumstances, courts may issue publication bans in relation to certain court hearings; courts may also order certain personal information (including, in some cases, names of individuals) redacted from court decisions. For example, in decisions involving young offenders, only initials are used. The names of victims of sexual assaults may also be redacted.
In the pre-internet dark ages, the redaction of names and other personal information from court decisions was less significant because these decisions did not circulate widely. Few members of the public, for exmpale, were curious enough to go down to a law library to trawl through case reporters in the hope of spotting the name of someone they knew. Internet access and online publication of decisions changes things significantly. Fully searchable databases of court and administrative tribunals can leave individuals substantially exposed with respect to a very broad range of personal information. Decisions in divorce cases may include a detailed account of assets and liabilities, and may also recount grim details of personal conduct. Decisions of workers’ compensation tribunals may contain significant amounts of personal health information; the same can be said of human rights tribunals, pension and disability tribunals, and so on. In many civil cases where plaintiffs allege damages for anxiety, stress, or depression caused by the harm they suffered, courts may engage in a detailed discussion of the evidence presented. In personal injury law suits, there may be considerable discussion of personal health information. This is just a sample of some of the personal information that may be found in court decisions. In digital form, this information is available to nosy neighbors, malefactors, and data miners alike.
Courts and tribunals publish their decisions in conformity with the open courts principle. Online publication, however, raises significant privacy concerns that must be balanced against the open courts principle. The Canadian Judicial Council has considered this issue, and has issued guidelines for courts as to how to prepare decisions for online publication. The Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada has also weighed in on the issue with respect to the practices of federal administrative tribunals. The problem is, of course, that these guidelines are not mandatory, and, as Christopher Berzins has noted, there no consistent approach across the broad range of courts and tribunals in Canada. Further, in some cases, there may be genuine debate about whether certain details are required in order to meet the open courts principle. For example, if we are to understand why a certain award of damages is made in a particular case, we need to understand the nature of the evidence presented, and how the judge assessed that evidence.
So much for the first line of defence. Ideally, courts and tribunals, prior to making decisions available for online publication, should address privacy issues. Many do, some do not. Not all do so to the same extent or in the same way. In some cases, the open courts principle will outweigh privacy considerations – although whether technical or other solutions should be instituted is an excellent question. The fact remains that much personal information ends up being published online through important resources such as CanLII. CanLII itself has introduced a second line of defence – technological measures to ensure that the personal information is not accessible through search engines. What the story about the Romanian website has taught us is that this line of defence is entirely porous. It has also taught us that as more and more public personal information is made available in formats that allow for easy dissemination, greater attention needs to be paid – by courts and by governments at all levels – to the challenges of public personal information.
