Her new bill says the ATF will decide at their whim if you can keep your legal guns, and that is just the start of this monsters criminal attack on the constitution.

Insider: Obama To Fully Engage Gun Owners with Armed Feds in 2013
Alex talks with Doug Hagmann of the Northeast Intelligence Network about information released by his high-level DHS contact concerning government gun confiscation and other important topics.

Bill: Legal Gun Owners Must Surrender To ATF
Legally owned guns to handed over to criminal BATF and owners fingerprinted as criminals.
http://www.prisonplanet.com/bill-legal-gun-owners-must-surrender-to-atf.html
Bans the sale, transfer, importation, or manufacturing of:
120 specifically-named firearms;
Certain other semiautomatic rifles, handguns, shotguns that can accept a detachable magazine and have one or more military characteristics; and
Semiautomatic rifles and handguns with a fixed magazine that can accept more than 10 rounds.
Strengthens the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban and various state bans by:
Moving from a 2-characteristic test to a 1-characteristic test;
Eliminating the easy-to-remove bayonet mounts and flash suppressors from the characteristics test; and
Banning firearms with "thumbhole stocks" and "bullet buttons" to address attempts to "work around" prior bans.
Bans large-capacity ammunition feeding devices capable of accepting more than 10 rounds.
Protects legitimate hunters and the rights of existing gun owners by:
Grandfathering weapons legally possessed on the date of enactment;
Exempting over 900 specifically-named weapons used for hunting or sporting purposes; and
Exempting antique, manually-operated, and permanently disabled weapons.
Requires that grandfathered weapons be registered under the National Firearms Act, to include:
Background check of owner and any transferee;
Type and serial number of the firearm;
Positive identification, including photograph and fingerprint;
Certification from local law enforcement of identity and that possession would not violate State or local law; and
Dedicated funding for ATF to implement registration.
Blasphemy is a victimless crime.
"The day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus, by the Supreme Being as His father, in the womb of a virgin will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the brain of Jupiter." Letter to John Adams, April 11, 1823 -Thomas Jefferson
Thank you for setting the record straight. It sounds like very sensible legislation to me.
Yes it does. I'm sure Volitzer and the rest haven't even looked at it.
Don't tell the conspiracy nuts that, though, any gun control at at all is reason to propagandize about it and get all paranoid.
Yeah they hate when facts get in the way.
In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control and from 1929 to 1953,
about 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded
up and exterminated.
In 1911, Turkey established gun control and from 1915 to 1917, 1.5 million
Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were r ounded up and exterminated.
Germany established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945, a total of
13 million Jews and others who were unable to defend themselves were
rounded up and exterminated.
China established gun control in 1935 and from 1948 to 1952, 20 million political
dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Guatemala established gun control in 1964 and from 1964 to 1981, 100,000
Mayan Indians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Uganda established gun control in 1970 and from 1971 to 1979, 300,000
Christians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Cambodia established gun control in 1956 and from 1975 to 1977, one million
educated' people, unable to defend themselves, w ere rounded up and
exterminated.
Defenseless people rounded up and exterminated in the 20th Century
because of gun control: 56 million.

It has now been 2 years since gun owners in Australia were forced by new
law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be destroyed by their own
government, a program costing Australia taxpayers more than $500 million
dollars. The first year results are now in:
List of 7 items: Australia-wide, homicides are up 3.2 percent
Australia-wide, assaults are up 8.6 percent
Australia-wide, armed robberies are up 44 percent (yes, 44 percent)!
In the state of Victoria alone, homicides with firearms are now up 300
percent. Note that while the law-abiding citizens turned them in, the
criminals did not, and criminals still possess their guns!
While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady decrease in
armed robbery with firearms, this has changed drastically upward in the past
12 months, since criminals now are guaranteed that their prey is unarmed.
There has also been a dramatic increase in break- ins and assaults of the
ELDERLY. Australian politicians are at a loss to explain how public safety
has decreased, after such monumental effort and expense
was expended in successfully ridding Australian society of guns.
The Australian experience and the other historical facts above prove it.

Holy crap, Volitzer! Feinsteins bill is NOT calling for a total ban on guns. Just assault rifles and guns with large capacity magazines. It just goes to show that you lack the brain power to comprehend this.
Yeah so the Feds can have their M-16s and M-60s while the rest of us are using 10 clip rifles to their 30 and beyond.
This is how it starts.
Again look at my previous post for the obvious history lessons you missed being government educated !!!!!!
Did the Feds start killing everyone when the last assault weapons ban was in effect? NO! It's people like you that perpetuate this none sense and soon or later some nut job is going to take you serious and start shooting people for only one reason. HE heard that the government was going to take away our guns and kill everyone. And I doubt that you would feel any remorse about it.

That's actually happened a couple of times already, Robert. The one that most comes to mind is Richard Poplawski, a Pittsburgh guy who ambushed cops that came to his door, thinking they were going to "grab his guns."
http://crooksandliars.com/david-neiwert/was-pittsburgh-shooter-driven-right-
http://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/tag/richard-poplawski/
Here are some quotes by him, sound like anybody we know..?
"Are you serious? It's easy to post pictures of terrorists holding AK's in an attempt to demonize guns, but I should hope most people would see right through that tactic.
"What happens when the GOV is the only entity with any real firepower. And they feel like trampling you. With what instruments will you fight the tyranny? Lest ye forget. Think it can't happen here? Stay tuned."

He was egged on by right-wing nutjobs like Alex Jones, who is no doubt happy every time something like this comes up.

The traditional household goods move model is an important part of any relocation. However, shipment trends show that since 2011, average weight has decreased by 17%, which calls for an alternative to the larger loads and the associated costs. Servicing smaller shipments, especially during peak season months, can be challenging for service providers and transferees. Several of NEI valued household goods service partners provide "Small Shipment Containerized" programs as a viable solution to address this need.
Transferees with household goods weighing less than 4,500 pounds can take advantage of this program, which offers a reliable alternative to standard household goods carrier services. The Small Shipment Program gives the transferee the amenities of a high-quality traditional household goods move experience while improving transit time, minimizing claims, and controlling client costs.
In this program, small shipments are packed and loaded directly into containers at the transferee's residence by the same professional crew used in a traditional corporate move. After packing and loading the container, it is brought back to the local warehouse and shipped to the destination warehouse to await final delivery.
In a traditional household goods move, carriers often have multiple shipments in one large tractor, which sometimes makes scheduling delivery dates challenging. Small shipments are a lower priority, and many become stranded at the origination warehouse until a moving van with space, heading to the destination location, can load the shipment. During peak season, a small shipment may be stranded at the origination location for weeks.
However, with the Small Shipment Program, the transferee controls the loading and delivery dates. The shipment remains in containers throughout the move, includes any "Storage in Transit" (SIT) time, and is delivered to the new residence in the same container. Additionally, because the transferee has exclusive use of the container, there is no additional handling of the goods, which could result in a lower frequency of claims.
There can also be a reduction in relocation expenses, such as hotel and meal costs, associated with transferees waiting for delivery of household goods. Depending on the geographic area, NEI client companies using the Small Shipment Program have experienced an average savings of $375 per day, or a weekly savings of $2,625.
The development of creative solutions between NEI, our Clients, and Household Goods partners, such as the Small Shipment Program, are key elements to meet the needs of global mobility programs more efficiently from start to finish.
Your NEI representative can explore these options in detail at your convenience.


There's trust and then there's trust. As a leader, you know how important building trust is within your organization. It's the lifeblood of communicating and executing your brand strategy.
What is it about some leaders that allow them to motivate their employees at the most optimal times? Well, that's what we're here to find out!
You may be wondering, is there a secret mojo that leaders have up their sleeves?
We've all had that one coach, mentor or boss that seemed to know what buttons to push to spark our drive.
There was something about them that cast a vision you could believe but couldn't see yourself. They possessed immediate access to trigger a result that was mutually beneficial.
I'll give you the inside scoop — there is a secret mojo!
In my 15 years of studying organizational behavior, I've come to the conclusion that leaders need to have built equity with their people. Great leaders have a well of positive experiences, trust and respect they can draw from.
Steven Covey said, "Seek first to understand and then to be understood."
Workplace equity was first considered by J. Stacy Adams in 1969. His belief was that employees value fair treatment, which motivates them to keep the fairness maintained within the relationships of their co-workers and the organization.
The first way to make someone feel different is by creating an environment where you as a leader listen. To achieve relevant moments, your employees must have an experience where they know you hear them.
Recognition, praise and gratitude are powerful inputs. Do your people believe that you are willing to pour into them?
Building an influential voice often comes down to someone's belief that you have their best interest at heart. If their only experiences are interactions where you tell them what to do, reluctance will follow.
My life is a quilt of experiences I've had with past leaders who poured into me.
Gordon Tytler was a mentor to me when I worked at Rolls-Royce. He seemed intrigued to share because I seemed intrigued to listen and gain wisdom. The occasional informal sit down where he asked, "how are you doing?" went a long way for me wanting to work hard for the company.
You don't change peoples' minds by being negative and brash in difficult circumstances. Safety is an emotion that can't be built in a Utopian environment.
Hard working employees want authenticity. What experience have you given them to add to their belief bank when things didn't go well?
Cognitive distortion is when an employee perceives conflict will end negatively. They will seek to distort the facts with a negative outcome rather than rely on positive experiences where your leadership guided them through.
I believe that creating a culture of positive conflict propels an organization to be innovative, inspirational and influential.
The character of a leader, at the moment you need to influence, must quickly attract the confidence of your team member.
Does your organization have a rich history of reaching goals together? As a leader, you are responsible for the reactions you create.
The inverted leadership pyramid is a practical way to empower your people. The inverted pyramid is a metaphor for a reversal of traditional management practices.
Employees who are closest to customers are placed at the top and managers at the bottom. The servant leadership mentality builds equity that pays strong organizational dividends.
Every great leader needs to be a great communicator. A lack of goal clarity is the culprit for decaying leadership.
The instant you attempt to lead someone, the question of why must already be answered. If this concept is new to you, watch this video from Simon Sinek.
Strong business leaders never stop telling the story of why. The business mission, the purpose of why you do what you do, the guiding values — all must be personalized daily. When people forget why they are working for you, your leadership equity is bankrupt.
If you want to motivate your employees, start by using these five positive experiences.

A pamphlet is an unbound book (that is, without a hard cover or binding). Pamphlets may consist of a single sheet of paper that is printed on both sides and folded in half, in thirds, or in fourths, called a leaflet or it may consist of a few pages that are folded in half and saddle stapled at the crease to make a simple book.

For the "International Standardization of Statistics Relating to Book Production and Periodicals", UNESCO defines a pamphlet as "a non-periodical printed publication of at least 5 but not more than 48 pages, exclusive of the cover pages, published in a particular country and made available to the public" and a book as  "a non-periodical printed publication of at least 49 pages, exclusive of the cover pages". The UNESCO definitions are, however, only meant to be used for the particular purpose of drawing up their book production statistics.

Etymology
The word pamphlet for a small work (opuscule) issued by itself without covers came into Middle English  1387 as  or , generalized from a twelfth-century amatory comic poem with an old flavor, Pamphilus, seu de Amore ("Pamphilus: or, Concerning Love"), written in Latin. Pamphilus's name is derived from the Greek name , meaning "beloved of all". The poem was popular and widely copied and circulated on its own, forming a slim codex.

History

Its modern connotations of a tract concerning a contemporary issue was a product of the heated arguments leading to the English Civil War; this sense appeared in 1642. In some European languages, this secondary connotation, of a disputatious tract, has come to the fore: compare libelle, from the Latin libellus, denoting a "little book".

Pamphlets functioned in place of magazine articles in the pre-magazine era, which ended in the mid-nineteenth century. There were hundreds of them in the United States alone. They were a primary means of communication for people interested in political and religious issues, such as slavery. Pamphlets never looked at both sides of a question; most were avowedly partisan, trying not just to inform but to convince the reader.

Purpose

Pamphlets can contain anything from information on kitchen appliances to medical information and religious treatises. Pamphlets are very important in marketing because they are cheap to produce and can be distributed easily to customers. Pamphlets have also long been an important tool of political protest and political campaigning for similar reasons.

A pamphleteer is a historical term for someone who produces or distributes pamphlets, especially for a political cause.

Collectibility

Due to their ephemeral nature and to the wide array of political and religious perspectives given voice by the format's ease of production, pamphlets are prized by many book collectors. Substantial accumulations have been amassed and transferred to ownership of academic research libraries around the world.

Particularly comprehensive collections of American political pamphlets are housed at New York Public Library, the Tamiment Library of New York University, and the Jo Labadie collection at the University of Michigan.

Commercial uses

The pamphlet has been widely adopted in commerce, particularly as a format for marketing communications. There are numerous purposes for pamphlets, such as product descriptions or instructions, corporate information, events promotions or tourism guides and they are often used in the same way as leaflets or brochures.

Voters Strongly Support Truck Automatic Emergency Braking
ATLANTA, Oct. 25, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Road Safe America today released the results of a national survey showing that voters across the United States strongly support the required use of two existing safety technologies in large trucks, speed limiters and automatic emergency braking.
Against the backdrop of worsening trends in truck safety, it should come as no surprise that there is widespread support amongst the American public for these sensible solutions. New crash data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) revealed that 4,761 people lost their lives in truck crashes on our nation's highways in 2017. The NHTSA data shows a 41% increase from an all-time low in 2009, an unacceptable trend given that technology tools are available to reduce truck crashes.
"Americans overwhelmingly support these common-sense and data-driven truck safety technology measures to save lives and prevent injuries," said Steve Owings, co-founder of Road Safe America. "If use of speed limiters and automatic emergency brakes (AEB) had been required in 2002, my son Cullum who was killed by a speeding truck driver, might be alive today. We call on Congress to support the vast majority of Americans and act now to require the use of lifesaving, truck safety technologies."
The survey, by McLaughlin & Associates, of likely general election voters nationwide was conducted September 18-24, 2018 and has an accuracy of +/- 3.1%. Results from the survey show:
79% of voters favor speed limiters set at a maximum speed of 65 miles per hour for large trucks, 45% strongly favor it and only 13% oppose it.
82% of voters favor AEB, 50% strongly favor it and just 9% oppose it.
Speed limiter technology has existed for decades and is standard capability in all big rigs manufactured since 1992, yet its use in the United States is not required. Many trucks on American highways have set their speed limiters voluntarily because it is profitable to do so, saving on fuel and maintenance costs for brakes and tires. The European Union, Japan, Australia and the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec all require speed governors to be set on heavy commercial vehicles at speeds varying from 55 mph in Japan to 65 mph in Canada. This requirement has been in place for as long as 25 years in some countries and none of them has ever reversed the requirement.
A study by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration concluded that big-rigs not using their built-in speed governors were involved in high-speed collisions at twice the rate of trucks that were using them. In addition, a study released by the Ontario Ministry of Transportation found the highway crash rate of speeding trucks dropped by 73% after their heavy vehicle speed limiter rule took effect in Ontario and fatalities in all crashes involving big rigs dropped 24% in the same time frame.
Automatic emergency braking is proven collision avoidance technology. Despite years of study and successful use by leading motor carriers, this technology has yet to be required for commercial motor vehicles. NHTSA estimates that current generation AEB systems can prevent more than 2,500 crashes each year. NHTSA granted a petition in 2015 to initiate rulemaking that would require AEB in all trucks; but the agency has missed the deadline for a final report that was due in September 2018.

Judicial Conduct Committee finds prima facie gross misconduct by Judge Mushtak Parker
June 11, 2020 Written by Admin
The Judicial Conduct Committee has recommended that Western Cape Judge Mushtak Parker face an impeachable conduct tribunal to investigate whether he has brought the judiciary into disrepute.
"The two complaints will, if established, prima facie indicate gross misconduct on the part of the respondent," said Deputy Chief Justice Raymond Zondo, who is the committee's acting chairperson.
Parker has been accused of two different incidents of dishonesty, which — if found to be true — are "extremely serious", Zondo said in written reasons from the committee.
The first complaint came from 10 of his colleagues on the Western Cape high court bench. Parker is the judge alleged to have been assaulted by Judge-President John Hlophe, in an incident that is at the centre of a related fight between Hlophe and his deputy, Patricia Goliath.
Goliath has made her own judicial misconduct complaint against Hlophe, accusing him of a range of misconduct — including having assaulted Parker. In answer to her complaint, the judge president denied the claim. He also said that he had shown this part of his affidavit to "the judge concerned" who agreed.
But, said Parker's colleagues, Parker had told a number of them that he had indeed been assaulted. He had even disposed to an affidavit saying as much in the presence of colleague Judge Derek Wille, they said. There were now two "mutually destructive" versions he had given.
The committee said that when it met to consider the complaints Parker had not attended the meeting. But "on these facts, if the first complaint is established, the position will be that the respondent has no explanation for giving these contradictory versions, one of which has to be untrue", said Zondo.
He emphasised that the committee's job was to look at the allegations only on a prima facie basis.
"To the extent that there may not have been any assault on the respondent [Parker] by Judge-President Hlophe, it would mean that the respondent went around telling a number of Judges that the Judge-President had assaulted him when he knew quite well that there had been no such assault," said Zondo.
On the other hand "to the extent that there may have been an assault on him by Judge-President Hlophe, it would mean that, when he confirmed Judge-President Hlophe's version, he did so with the full knowledge that he was corroborating a version that he knew to be untrue."
This would be seen as "extremely serious, particularly because he is a judge", the committee said.
The second complaint came from the Western Cape advocate body, the Cape Bar Council. The council complained that when Parker applied to be a judge, he had given dishonest answers to the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) in a questionnaire aspirant judges complete ahead of their interview.
Judge Parker had been an attorney before he was appointed a judge. At the firm at which he practiced as a partner before his appointment there had been a long-term deficit in the firm's trust account — because of misappropriation of trust monies, which is a breach of attorneys' ethical rules. Not reporting it when you have knowledge of it is also an ethical breach.
Yet when the JSC questionnaire asked if there were any circumstances, financial or otherwise, that may cause embarrassment if he were to become a judge, Parker replied: "No."
The committee said that if this were to be established it would be potentially impeachable: "The respondent's failure to disclose in his nomination questionnaire and in the interview before the JSC that the trust account of his law firm had had a deficit for a long time while he was the managing director is extremely serious," said Zondo.
The committee's recommendation must now go to the JSC, which, if it agrees with the committee, would then request its chairperson, Chief Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng, to establish a Judicial Conduct Tribunal to investigate potentially impeachable conduct.

Texpatriate endorses for County Judge
Counties in Texas are managed by a five-person Commissioner's Court. Four commissioners are selected from different precincts, each representing roughly a quarter of the population. The fifth member is the County Judge, elected countywide to manage the affairs of the county and preside over the commissioners' court, though no trials.
Since 2007, the County Judgeship of Harris County has been in the capable hands of Ed Emmett. A former member of the Texas House of Representatives for four terms from 1979 to 1987, Emmett represents a seemingly dying breed of moderate Republicans. A transportation planner by trade, he has served on the Interstate Commerce Commission and understands the need for vigorous expansion of mass transit options. He has fought for Texas to assent to Obamacare's proposed Medicaid expansion, and he is a perpetual advocate for the preservation of the Astrodome. On social issues, Emmett takes a largely moderate stance, and thinks the County should have no role in regulating or commenting upon them.
But Emmett's greatest asset is his inimitable leadership qualities. In 2008, when Hurricane Ike devastated the entire region, Emmett was a familiar face who tirelessly worked day and night to turn the lights back on and maintain normalcy in Houston. While voters have judged Emmett twice since that time, and we should really be judging his actions in the last quadrennial, his skillful leadership during the tragedy have set the stage for a constantly prepared County Judge. Emmett's face is usually on a billboard or two every summer, with his signature phrase "Hunker Down," and his office is one of the best prepared in the State for dealing with possible tropical cyclones.
Simply put, we believe that Emmett is our best representative on the Commissioner's Court. He shows an understanding and a empathy for the average person to an extent nearly unheard of in today's crop of politician. And, most importantly, he prioritizes pragmatism and big solutions over ideology and small-minded partisanship.
This was put on full display earlier this year when Emmett put his money where his mouth was, so to speak, on that front. He largely underwrote the campaign of Paul Simpson, who had challenged Jared Woodfill for Chairman of the Harris County Republican Party. Woodfill was a zealot who put undue priority on divisive social issues and bullied more moderate members of the party. Simpson, with Emmett's help, defeated Woodfill and has begun making the County Republicans arguably a little more of a "big tent" party. We are ecstatic to see it.
Emmett's only opponent, after his Democratic adversary dropped out, is Green candidate David Collins. While he means well, even he lauds the record that Emmett has. Simply put, we think that, since the incumbent has done a good job, he should be rewarded with another term.
Unfortunately, Emmett has announced that -assuming he wins- this next term will be his past. We thoroughly hope this means that he will run for Governor in 2018. Removed from party labels, he has done wonders for Harris County. Hopefully, Texas will be next.
Accordingly, this board endorses Ed Emmett for County Judge.
The Texpatriate Editorial Board is comprised of Noah M. Horwitz & Olivia Arena of Austin, George Bailey of Boston, Luis Fayad of College Station and Andrew Scott Romo of New Orleans. Editorials represent a majority opinion of the board.

DC: The role depends greatly on the size and character of the county. In Harris County, the Judge should hear the reports of Commissioners and their staffs on the needs of each precinct, assess those needs in light of county resources, and evaluate proposed solutions to meet those needs. I would prefer that the County Judge vote in Commissioners Court sessions only as a tie-breaker. One part the County Judge should notplay is greasing the skids for real estate developers, which is something Harris County Judges have done for longer than I can remember.
T: Why you, as opposed to your opponents?
DC: Since Democratic candidate Ahmad Hassan has dropped out of the race, and there is no Libertarian candidate, my only opponent is Republican incumbent Ed Emmett, whom I respect. Judge Emmett is one of the few Republican office-holders who don't turn my stomach: He is more of a pragmatist than an ideologue, and he handled his toughest test (Hurricane Ike) with compassion and courage.
However, Harris County needs a candidate who will advocate strongly for developing clean, renewable energy and public transportation that serves working people. Also, since Harris County is notorious worldwide the death penalty capital of the West, I would encourage the District Attorney's office to continue the current decrease in pursuit of death sentences, which is not a result of policy change so much as the cost of prosecuting capital cases.
T: What is a specific proposal the incumbent has made in the last term before the Commissioner's Court that you disagree with?
DC: Our Commissioners Court proceedings are not exactly transparent and don't get much coverage in local media, so that's hard to pinpoint. It's ridiculous how much power five people have over the lives of 4 million-plus, without those 4 million-plus knowing what goes on in the CC. It's not so much Judge Emmett's proposals that I disagree with as the lack of sunshine at the county level, even for residents of unincorporated areas who have no city government. I would work to change that.
T: Do you believe that the incumbent has specifically failed at her or his job? If so, why?
DC: I don't.
T: What, exactly, is your plan regarding the Astrodome?
DC: Something similar to that proposed by Astrodome Tomorrow: Save the structure, and turn it into a tourist destination that integrates well with the surrounding Reliant Park complex.
T: What relationship do you believe that County should have with the City of Houston, other municipalities and the State?
DC: The tradition of home rule for counties in Texas is a mixed blessing, but I would like to see it continue. Houston may dominate the landscape of Harris County, but the two governments have no reason to merge a la Miami-Dade; they can continue to work together on projects such as Metro. We can work with Dallas County—and possibly Bexar, Travis, and Tarrant Counties—on connecting the state's four largest metro areas with high-speed rail. Mostly, I would like to see regular meetings of the commissioners' courts of the 13 metro-Houston counties, as equals regardless of population, to establish regional policies on protecting our natural heritage and creating incentives for businesses, farms, and residences to collect their own solar and wind power—although I have little faith that the Republicans who dominate the various county CC's would go for any of that.
T: What are the three most important issues to you, and what is at least one thing you have done to address each of them?
DC: "Have done"? The wording of this question appears to be meant for the incumbent. However…
Since issues are interconnected, it is difficult to isolate three as most important. As far as County government is concerned, I could say, "Transportation, energy, and environmental protection," but these three are facets of the same larger issue, which includes the notion of Smart Growth.
The Green Party believes strongly in encouraging multi-modal transportation options; the city and Metro are moving forward on making this a reality with Metro's "reimagining" and the city's Complete Streets initiative. However, the rest of the county outside Metro's service area still leaves non-motorists out of the picture. Pasadena, Texas, is one of America's largest cities with no public transit; it's time for that to change. Let's look into making FM 1960 and Louetta Road friendlier to cyclists and pedestrians, or expanding Metro's service area to include more of Copperfield.
The refineries along the Ship Channel have essentially been given a 45-year exemption from Clean Air Act compliance. It is in the interest of health and safety for the entire region, but especially fenceline communities, that we use both carrot and stick to bring the energy companies into line. Despite our recent "coolest city" designations, no sensible person wants to relocate to a city or county with such ridiculously high rates of asthma and cancer. Most people who move here do so out of necessity, then find that they have to drive everywhere and pollute the air even more. Where does it end? I hope it ends with county governments finding and implementing solutions. One solution would be to retrofit those facilities and retrain workers toward the manufacture of solar collectors and windmills; this would take decades, but would be an essential step toward cutting atmospheric CO2 and other greenhouse gases that drive climate change.
Honorable mention for issues of importance goes to housing. Too much recent development has been profit-driven to excess, such as knocking down older single-family and duplex housing in Inner-Loop Houston, which is suitable housing stock for young workers and students, to replace it with luxury lofts and mid-rises. The County should require developers to devote a reasonable percentage of their capital toward building truly affordable and durable housing for low- and middle-income residents, including the use of as much recycled material as practical.

the typical means to appreciate the brain, or 'mindreading', performs an important position in our traditional lives. Shaun Nichols and Stephen Stich offer a close and built-in account of the difficult net of psychological parts underlying this attention-grabbing and multifarious ability. The mind's eye, they argue, is vital to figuring out others, and there are particular cognitive mechanisms for knowing oneself. The account that emerges has large implications for longstanding philosophical debates over the prestige of people psychology.
Mindreading is one other trailblazing quantity within the prestigious interdisciplinary Oxford Cognitive technological know-how series.
Gesturing is such an imperative but subconscious a part of conversation that we're quite often oblivious to it. but when you notice someone in dialog, you are going to see his or her palms, arms, and palms in a few kind of spontaneous movement. Why? David McNeill, a pioneer within the ongoing examine of the connection among gesture and language, set approximately answering this question over twenty-five years in the past.
This philosophical paintings outlines a method of ethics established no longer purely on an individual's activities, but in addition the explanations that inspire his selected activities. tasks are modes of tasks that folks own inside of their respective households and groups. whereas a few individuals may well realize and settle for their own tasks, different people will refuse any kind of responsibility.

He's been a professional boxer, an award-winning actor, dancer, singer, author, and TV talk-show host. But the latest role for TV's favorite hunky housekeeper, as grandfather, is his best yet.
The 67-year-old Brooklyn native — who first won over TV audiences during his five-year run in the late 70s and early 80s as Tony Banta on the hit sitcom Taxi — has continued to shine on screen and on stage.
And if that isn't enough, Danza's coauthored a cookbook/memoir Don't Fill Up on the Antipasto (Scribner) coauthored with his son, Marc. Featuring family, fun, lots of food — and 7-year-old grandson Nicholas — the book is chock-full of recipes and real-life stories from Tony's Italian-American family dinners. There's even a recipe named for his grandson; "Pasta Nicky" is a tricky way for the boy eat his peas and carrots.
Danza stopped singing and stirring the marinara long enough to dish on fatherhood, grandchildren, and how to make a great meal with a toddler.
Grandparents.com: Your son, Marc, announced you were going to be a grandfather on your talk show. The Tony Danza Show, in 2005. You were surprised, but so was your audience, considering you were in your mid 50s. Were you ready to be a grandfather?
Tony Danza: Oh, Marc and his wife had been married a long time and, you know, I didn't want to push or put any pressure on them. You know, I figured they'd get around to it and it's their life, and then you don't say anything because what if they were trying and having a problem? So I stayed out of it. But I was ready and thrilled. And now "Nicky Macaroni" — he's such a joy.
GP: You were a young father and now a young grandfather. Did the former prepare you for the latter?
TD: I think being a young father was tougher on Marc than on me. We had to grow up together. And I have two daughters, one who just turned 28 and the other is 23. I'm proud of my girls and my son and my grandson.
GP: How is it different raising a son in the 70s from taking care of a grandson today?
TD: There are a lot more challenges for parents now. But it all goes back to showing them how to be a good person. Keep them close to you. And make dinner together.
GP: You and your son cowrote Don't Fill Up on the Antipasto, with your grandson, Nicholas, featured prominently throughout. Was it important for you to include him?
TD: What's great about having a kid at 19, which is when Marc was born, is that he got to know his grandmother and great-grandmother, who were vital and around. It's vital to be involved with your kids and your grandkids. Granted, my family was a lot bigger when Marc was growing up, but that's okay. It's all about being with family.
GP: Your book is all about family — what did your grandfathers mean to you? What kind of grandfather do you hope to be with Nicholas?
TD: My grandfather on my mother's side was a bounty hunter in Sicily. Crazy guy, he was. A big man, not tall, but husky. He was the patriarch, but he was so fun and smart and would give me quarters. I want to be the guy who takes my grandson fishing and the guy he wants to go fishing with. I won't tell them, I'll show them. I want to be a good example.
GP: You wanted to be a boxer, but now you're an actor and entertainer. Would you want Nicholas to follow in either career path?
TD: The only thing I would say is he has to finish school, be a college graduate. After that I would support anything.
GP: How has your relationship changed with your son since he became a father and you became a grandfather?
TD: I have even more respect for him. The way he conducts himself with his kid makes me so proud. And I was proud of him before Nicky was born. I love them together. Just the other day they were playing Steamroller on the bed. Nicky was jumping over Marc as he rolled around. It was fabulous. I'm so fortunate to live close.
GP: What are yours and Nicholas's favorite foods to eat together? Does he help at all with the cooking?
TD: For pizza, we crush the tomatoes and squeeze them and make faces. Then I give Nicky a piece of his own dough and he can make it any way he wants. It's important to spend time with the kids. Food doesn't have to be perfect. When I was growing up, I remember my father yelling at me not to be afraid to add the salt and pepper. I say that to my son and my grandson. Don't be afraid. Of cooking. Of anything.


Three students from Maynooth University have each won a coveted legal internship in financial services law.
Students Wayne O'Flanagan from Offaly and Gbemisola Fowora from Louth had competed fiercely for the prestigious award, and did their university proud when it was announced at the Council Room on Maynooth campus, that not just one but both students had won the title of Matheson Funds Law Intern 2016.
The students earned their awards for the high calibre of their work produced as part of the University's master's degree module in investment funds law, which is entirely taught at the offices of Matheson, combined with a competitive interview process.
A further special announcement was made at the proceedings, as Head of Investment Funds at Matheson, Tara Doyle, confirmed that classmate Stephen Traynor had been awarded a Fintech Internship with Matheson.
It was also announced that Silke Volckehaert, from Belgium, had won the prize for the best UCITS essay on the Funds Law course.
Ireland is already the sixth largest exporter of financial services in the world and the seventh largest exporter of wholesale financial services in the EU.
Matheson first partnered with Maynooth University in 2013 to create Ireland's first and only specialised funds law course to be taught at university level. Liz Grace, a Partner at Matheson, wrote and created the course.
"We know that a skilled workforce is a key factor for international companies considering locating in Ireland. Equipping graduates with specialist skills is essential to Ireland's success in continuing to attract foreign direct investment and, of course, hand in hand with that is the generation of exciting employment opportunities at home for our talented graduates", she said.

It's not every day you get to hear vintage technology talking to you, let alone advertising itself. The Public Domain Review recently spotlighted a recording that was widely played at Edison phonograph dealers in the early part of the 20th century. In "I Am The Edison Phonograph (Advertising Record)," recorded by Len Spencer in 1906, a grand yet eerie voice extolls the many virtues of the new machine, from entertaining guests to lulling babies to sleep. According to the Internet Archive, this is a digital recording made from an original Edison black wax cylinder at Menlo Park. "The more you become acquainted with me, the better you will like me," the recording ends, in a crackling, impish voice—a product of the technology, or the true spirit of the phonograph? Listen below and see if you can figure it out.

What to do in Oxford? Go Punting
When visiting the City of Dreaming Spires, to really get a taste of local life, you simply have to try punting in Oxford! While Rugby in Warwickshire is the home Rugby and Scotland is the birthplace of Golf, Oxford has the unique distinction of being the home of punting! And what is 'punting' exactly? Who came up with the idea and why does it remain so popular today? Let's take a look at the history of this popular Oxford pastime.
Punting – What Is It?
Punting is the act of steering a 'punt' boat i.e. a flat bottomed boat with no keel and a square end. To steer your punt, you need to push a long pole, usually 5 meters in length against the river bed. The pole acts as a rudder that navigates the punt although this is a slightly more advanced technique that requires the person steering to push off at an angle. Collectively, these actions are known as 'punting.'
Punting Origins
Punts started out as mini cargo boats used primarily by fishermen. The benefit of these small boats was their ease of use in shallow waters that were too shallow to row in. These boats boosted the local economy at the time by aiding cargo transport. This eventually gave way to the common recreational pursuit of punting enjoyed by many to the present day.
Punts range in size and can accommodate anything from 5 to 12 passengers depending on size. Most punts are made from wood, some from fibreglass (generally for narrow racing punts). The sides of a punt can be made from either mahogany or teal and the bottom from softwood which can be replaced. You can even try a punt ferry if you're lucky enough to find one!
How To Punt
The most widely accepted punting technique is to push onto the bed of the river using the punting pole. As the fisherman's punt transitioned to a pleasure pastime in the 1870s, passengers sat on the stern while the 'punter' planted the pole by the bow of the boat then 'ran' forward to the stern to push the punt forward. This traditional method is known as 'running the punt.'
Nowadays, punts are much lighter and an aspiring 'punter' no longer needs to run. A popular modern day technique is to 'prick' the punt by simply standing still towards the stern and shove forward on the river bed. In Oxford, it is popular to stand inside the actual boat and punt forward with the pole.
The rivalry between Oxford and Cambridge Universities has been well documented (but remember that Oxford is the first English speaking university in the World!)
So of course, even punting in Oxford and Cambridge have their rivalry.
If you are punting from "The Oxford End" we stand in the punt with the raised till platform facing forward. But, if you punt from "The Cambridge End" you would stand on the till platform and punt with the open-end facing forward.
Popular Places To Punt In Oxford.
You can try your hand at punting in various Oxford locations such as the Magdalen Bridge Boathouse, Cherwell Boathouse, Salter's Steamers & Oxford River Cruises (Folly Bridge, Oxford). If you're feeling daring, you can have a try at punting by yourself or if you just want to experience punting without the struggle, you can even be 'punt chauffeured', either way, you haven't truly experienced Oxford until you step inside a punt!

Marc Cucurella's 'family' issues may have affected Chelsea form this season, Potter reveals
James Hunsley
21:04 EAT 20/01/2023
Graham Potter has revealed that the form of Marc Cucurella, who he also worked with at Brighton, may be attributed to certain issues off the pitch.
Cucurella has struggled since summer move
Potter labelled Spaniard a "top player"
Attributed poor form to "family" matters
WHAT HAPPENED? The Spaniard moved to west London in the summer in a record move for a full-back. So far this season, though, Cucurella is yet to live up to his £63m ($78m) fee, and has failed to start any of Chelsea's last three matches. Potter, who also made the switch from Brighton a month later, labelled the 24-year-old a "top player" and put his recent performances down to other external factors.
WHAT THEY SAID: "I think it's been a challenge for him [Cucurella]," Potter said in a press conference. "He's had some things off the pitch as well, family-wise there have been some things that have been difficult for hm. So there are many factors. Sometimes people just see the guy on the pitch and they have a verdict for him. But there are all sorts of things going on in his life. I know Marc well and I know Marc at his best. He is a top player."
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Looking ahead to Chelsea's crunch match against Liverpool on Saturday - which could see the introduction of £89m ($110.3m) new boy Mykhailo Mudryk - Potter defended his managerial adversary. Jurgen Klopp will be leading his team out for the 1,000th time in his career, although will be aiming to avoid a third straight league defeat which would see the Reds slip below their West London counterparts.
"No matter who you are – and we're talking about one of the best teams the Premier League has seen, and one of the best managers the Premier League has seen – if you have injuries you have problems," Potter said of Klopp. "It amazes me that people say the Premier League is the best league in the world and then I'm asked if it's a surprise someone is struggling. That's what it is. Jurgen is a fantastic guy and manager. They'll fix it and come through their struggles. Then we all know their quality."
IN TWO PHOTOS:
WHAT NEXT FOR CUCURELLA? After a period away from the first team, the Spaniard will be looking to make an impact against Liverpool on Saturday, either as a starter or from the bench.

Porsche 911 GT3 Cup race car revealed - The latest version of the most popular GT racer
Does this new race car show what the next GT3 will look like?
by: Richard Lane
Porsche has unveiled its new GT3 race car. This is the first racing car the company has introduced since the launch of the new turbocharged Carrera, though purists will be pleased to hear that the 2017 GT3 Cup is refreshingly old-school.
The Cup adopts some of the styling cues of the new 911 road car, one example being the sculpted rear lights. However, the GT3 Cup shows us what we might expect the next 911 GT3 to look like. The 991.2 GT3 is imminent and we wouldn't be surprised to see it with a similar front bumper and nose to this GT3 Cup.
It's the 991 GT3 road car that acts as a homologation base for the GT3 Cup. For power, however, the car uses the naturally aspirated 4-litre flat-six of road-going GT3 RS. The engine in the GT3 Cup has been adapted to cope with the stresses of continuous abuse a race engine must deal with, but it actually produces slightly less power.
The new car, which looked superb on its stand at the Paris motor show in full works livery, will replace the outgoing GT3 Cup as the most junior 911 racer when it reaches customers later this year. It will sit beneath the RSR (think Le Mans 24 Hours) and GT3 R (think Blancpain GT Series) but above the new Cayman GT4 Clubsport in Porsche's customer-racing hierarchy.
Drivers in the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup (currently used for F1 support races) and from 2018 the GB Carrera Cup can look forward to 468bhp and 354lb ft, but they'll have to work for it – peak power doesn't arrive until a heady 8500rpm and torque until 6250rpm.
Upgrades to the engine include a stiffer crankshaft and an integrated oil centrifuge designed to optimise oil defoaming. The valve-drive also uses rigidly mounted rocker arms and there's a central oil feed for the very first time. The upshot of this is that durability should improve and the cost of running the car during the course of a brutal season should decrease in comparison to previous years.
The GT3 Cup is also light. Stripped of non-essential weight, it weighs just 1200kg – some 220kg less than the GT3 RS. This is largely due to an aluminium-steel composite used for the body and various carbonfibre componentry dotted about.
The suspension setup is predictable, with MacPherson struts at the front and multilink at the rear. The Cup car does, however, benefit from forged control arms and heavy-duty spherical bearings to stiffen things up. The 18-inch wheels are also centre-locking, the brake discs are made of steel (not a carbon-ceramic composite), and sensors are in place for the retrofitment of an ABS system.
Like all racing 911s, the GT3 Cup also has a wing of colossal proportions – it's nearly two metres wide and will contribute significantly to the efficacy of the 310-section rear tyres. For comparison, a GT3 RS uses 325-section rear tyres.
And just like all 911s full-stop, there is an extensive options list. Included on it are an endurance fuel-tank-upgrade, cockpit illumination (you'd think this would be standard), a suspension-travel sensor package and a heated windscreen for those dank days at Snetterton. You can also fit a passenger seat for 'taxi rides'.
Porsche claims that with 3031 examples sold for the 996-, 997- and 991-generation model line, the GT3 Cup is the most popular GT racing car ever built. Deliveries for the latest iteration begin in December, and you can find a full spec and brochure for the car here.

SEOUL, April 14 (Korea Bizwire) – South Korean girl group KARA will release their first album in nine months in May, the group's agency said Tuesday.
The group will release their seventh EP, the latest album by the group since August when their sixth EP "Mama Mia" hit the market, DSP Media said.
The title of the new album and the date of release have yet to be decided, it added.
"The album will be filled with songs that will best show the more mature aspects of KARA members," the agency said in a release.
After the departure of two of its five members — Nicole and Kang Ji-young, KARA made a restart last year as a quartet with the introduction of new member Heo Young-ji.

Robyn Vilate: Just Organic Juice - 3 Day Cleanse!
Just Organic Juice - 3 Day Cleanse!
So in my last post I had mentioned my 3 Day Cleanse that I just finished on Wednesday and today I am telling you all about it- literally! I decided to document my cleanse to give people an idea of how I was feeling each day and let you know how I liked the juices and how I was feeling during my cleanse. It's definitely not the easiest thing and the juices the first day weren't as easy to get down, but I realized within hours of starting the cleanse my body already felt different and by day two I was feeling like I had more energy, I felt lighter and overall I felt very in control. Part of the reason I did this cleanse was to prove to myself I can say "no" from time to time and deny myself of things, even when I really want them (kind of like when I woke up day 3 and thought I could just about annihilate a 5 guys burger!) Overall, I don't necessarily believe in fad diets or "diets" in general, but this is one of the healthiest ways that I can hit a little restart button and give myself a good place to start from when I feel like I'm starting to fall off the wagon (the healthy wagon, that is). For those of you who are interested in more information about this particular cleanse that I did, go to justorganicjuice.com to get all of their info about the juices, the nutritional value and the different packages they offer. I did the "Hard Boot 3 Day Cleanse" but they offer a 1 day and a 5 day cleanse as well. They also have some juices that are just great to add into your daily routine (I will be getting the Sunrise and the Pineapple Jalapeño soon!) I am also actually planning to do this same cleanse again in a couple of weeks and may try and do the 5 day this next time! I just love the way I feel afterwards and love challenging myself!
Thanks for reading and if you have any questions at all, post in the comments below!
Awesome! I'm on the last day of a cleanse myself after a little indulgence on my trip last week. I've been juicing on my own, but I definitely will have to check out the just organic juice! I think it would make it a little bit easier than having to fix it all myself. Way to go! I'm feeling great too, and definitely so glad I did it.
Oh wow, good for you doing it all yourself! I couldn't handle the mess and pain of doing it all so I went the easy route, but either way juice cleanses are amazing!
I need to try this after I have baby. This or the reset beach body has. Thanks for the info!!
Of course! I would definitely recommend it! It was so great!!
Aw Congrats to you!! That is so fun! Definitely a good cleanse to do once you're done with pregnancy and breastfeeding! It's amazing!
Would you recommend a 1 day cleanse first if I have never done a juice cleanse before? How did you avoid snacking if you felt hungry??
Hey hon! such a great review! I am starting their 5-day cleanse next week and am already craving a cheesburger #dontjudgeme! Your vids definitely gave me some great inspo so thank you for the tips!

Victor Amadeus of Savoy (Vittorio Amedeo Filippo Giuseppe; 6 May 1699 – 22 March 1715) was the eldest son of Victor Amadeus II, Duke of Savoy and his French wife Anne Marie d'Orléans. He was the heir apparent of Savoy from his birth and as such was styled as the Prince of Piedmont. He acted as Regent of Savoy from September 1713 till September 1714 in the absences of his father. He died of smallpox at the age of 15.

Biography

The Prince of Piedmont was born in Turin on 6 May 1699. He was the fifth child and first son of his parents, Victor Amadeus II of Savoy and Anne Marie d'Orléans, and was baptised with the names Victor Amadeus John Philip. He remained close to his father all his life. Though his parents were not close he also had a close relationship with his mother, a niece of Louis XIV of France.

From birth he was styled as the Prince of Piedmont, the typical style for the heir apparent to the Duke of Savoy. Victor Amadeus was born at a time when the House of Savoy was in need of a male heir to succeed as the duchy observed Salic law which forbade females to inherit the throne. His birth was greeted with great celebration and throughout his life, his health required constant attention. During the Battle of Turin, he, his mother, grandmother and younger brother, Charles Emmanuel, had to flee Turin for their safety and go to Genoa. His father took part in the battle which was played out to west of the city. The prince was moved from female care in 1708.

In 1713, at the end of the War of the Spanish Succession, by the Treaty of Utrecht, Sicily was ceded to the Duke of Savoy, Victor Amadeus's father. As such, Victor Amadeus became the heir to a kingdom rather than just a duchy. In September his parents set off for Palermo in Sicily in order to be crowned officially. Victor Amadeus II asked his mother, Marie Jeanne of Savoy, to maintain a regency in his absence but she declined and the younger Victor Amadeus was given the post. Victor Amadeus's regency ended when his father returned in September 1714. Strained relations between Savoy and Austria caused plans for the Prince of Piedmont to wed Maria Amalia, a daughter of the late Emperor Joseph I, but plans were ignored by his father. There were also negotiations for Victor Amadeus to wed Infanta Francisca Josefa of Portugal or Elisabeth Farnese.

Victor Amadeus died in Turin on 22 March 1715 having caught smallpox. He was buried at the Turin Cathedral and later moved to the Basilica of Superga outside Turin. His body is located in the Sala degli Infanti (Hall of the Infantes [children]). He was succeeded as Prince of Piedmont by his younger brother, Charles Emmanuel.

It could have been argued in the past, that Apple didn't need to enter into the living room space, as its brand was a technology brand and not a lifestyle brand. Why not just continue to tweak the AppleTV in its current form and pair it up to any HDTV set? I think that will continue to be an option for Apple, but Apple has always been about controlling the whole widget, the whole ecosystem. As of today, this is the one area in Apple's business model where it has left out such a vital component–and it's the component that people look at and interact with perhaps more than any other branded technology item in their household besides their mobile phone–and Apple's well on their way to having that covered pretty well (some may argue the refrigerator, but I'm having a hard time visualizing an Apple logo on that). But with the unparalleled success of the iPod and iPhone as well as changing the name from Apple Computers, Inc. to just Apple, Inc., Apple has already broadcast their intention (or recognition) of being a lifestyle brand.
Personally, I feel that its high-time that Apple introduced its design philosophy to the living rooms of America, and for those that can afford to, to be able to build their entertainment center around an Apple product as the whole widget, rather than just as a peripheral, and display it front and center. I believe that Apple has established a reputation of being able to deliver a dead-simple device that just works. Those that are inclined for a more affordable solution should still have the stand-alone AppleTV as an option–even if it requires a bit more technical savvy. Add to it, the open-source environment and if services like Boxee take off, Apple will soon own the living room and will have become a true juggernaut, rivaling Sony in the home electronics landscape.
Having it be announced this coming Tuesday, might be too much to hope for, as Apple has made it clear that the spotlight will be on notebooks. But there's always the possibility that Apple may make an announcement in time for the holiday shopping season (assuming there's still any money left in the world to spend by that time), but it seems to be more likely something that would be announced at Macworld, come next January (just in time for the Super Bowl!). We'll have to wait and see.
