Circuit Court Reverses and Reinstates Suspension After Tom Brady Fumbles the ESI
by Zapproved | Jun 15, 2016 | Case Law, Ediscovery, Resources
Nat'l Football League Mgmt. Council v. Nat'l Football League Players Assoc., Nos. 15-2801 (L), 15-2805 (CON), 2016 WL 1619883 (2d Cir. Apr. 25, 2016).
The Second Circuit, citing its deferential standard of review for arbitration awards, reinstated Tom Brady's four-game suspension for ball tampering, due at least in part to his admission that he instructed his assistant to destroy a cell phone that contained relevant text messages.
During the January 18, 2015 American Football Conference Championship Game between the New England Patriots and the Indianapolis Colts, National Football League (NFL) officials determined that all 11 of the game balls provided by the Patriots were inflated below the minimum allowable 12.5 psi, making them easier to grip.
The NFL retained an independent law firm to "investigate whether there had been improper ball tampering." This review included text messages between two Patriots equipment officials discussing Patriots quarterback Tom Brady's "preference for less-inflated footballs" and an exchange for "memorabilia autographed by Brady." The report also referenced a 25-minute phone call and numerous text messages between Brady and one of those equipment officials on the day the investigation was announced, though they did not routinely communicate. The independent report concluded that it was "more probable than not" that Brady had been "at least generally aware" of the scheme to tamper with game balls, which was unlikely to have occurred without his "approval." The report also noted that the underlying investigation had been "impaired" by Brady's refusal to provide any electronic information. It later turned out that on the day of his interview with the investigators, Brady had "instructed his assistant to destroy the cell phone" he had been using, "despite knowing that the investigators had requested information from the phone several weeks before."
Based on the report's conclusions and Brady's "failure to cooperate fully and candidly," the NFL subsequently imposed a four-game suspension for "conduct detrimental to the integrity of and public confidence in the game of professional football." Brady requested arbitration. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, serving as arbitrator, heard nearly 10 hours of testimony and arguments and reviewed hundreds of exhibits. During that hearing, Brady testified that he had an "ordinary practice of disposing of old cell phones," although he still had "phones that he had used before and after the relevant time frame." Goodell found that Brady was not credible and that he had "made a deliberate effort to ensure that investigators would never have access to information that he had been asked to produce." He therefore inferred "that the cell phone would have contained inculpatory evidence" and affirmed the four-game suspension.
On review, the district court vacated, finding that Brady "lacked notice that his conduct was prohibited and punishable by suspension." The NFL appealed to the Second Circuit, which in this opinion reversed and reinstated Brady's punishment. In doing so, the Second Circuit emphasized that within its "very limited" review, it could "inquire only as to whether the arbitrator acted within the scope of his authority" as defined by agreement, not to determine "how [it] would have resolved the dispute."
Regarding the apparent destruction of the cell phone, the circuit court rejected the district court's holding that "Brady's suspension cannot be sustained on the grounds that he obstructed" an investigation. Instead, the court noted that "Brady was punished for failing to cooperate, and it is clear from the Commissioner's decision that Brady's cell phone destruction was part and parcel of the broader claim that he had failed to cooperate." Moreover, the suspension was ruled appropriate since "the law permits a trier of fact to infer that a party who deliberately destroys relevant evidence the party had an obligation to produce did so in order to conceal damaging information."
Brady admitted that he ordinarily got rid of old phones for privacy reasons, which would have been a helpful fact had he not retained phones older than the one he ordered his assistant to destroy. He forgot the one practice that has made him so successful as a quarterback: consistency. As Brady's "Rule Yourself" commercial for Under Armour emphasizes, "you are the sum of all your training." Similarly, organizations need to remember that consistency is paramount when it comes to handling ESI, and custodians must be trained to preserve all data, regardless of where it is stored—on computers, servers, mobile devices, or elsewhere.

No citizen in Rock Island County, or throughout the country, was probably more widely known than John Deere of Moline. He was born at Rutland, Vermont, February 7, 1804, and died May 17, 1886. 1805 the family moved to Middlebury, Vermont, where the children attended school in a district schoolhouse, which had a long fire place across the end of the room. The reading, writing and little arithmetic obtained here, before he was twelve years old, was the principal educational start Mr. Deere had for life. He afterwards attended private school for a few months, but the inborn inclination for active practical work must assert itself, and the career began, which, for unconquerable energy, determined will, and self-made success, has few equals, if any superiors. Becoming tired of the schoolroom, he hired himself to a tanner to grind bark, and the pair of shoes and suit of clothes purchased with the wages were the first inclination the mother had of John's doings. At the age of seventeen he became an apprentice to Captain Benjamin Lawrence, and began learning the blacksmith trade. He faithfully worked out his engagement of four years, and was then employed in the shop of William Wells and Ira Allen, to construct iron wagons, buggies and stagecoaches. A year later he was in Burlington, and did the entire wrought iron work on the saw and linseed oil mill built at Colchester Falls. This indicates the mechanical ability of the young man; for it must be remembered that work which is now done by machinery, in those days must depend upon the skill and strength of the common blacksmith. In 1827 Mr. Deere went to Vergennes, Vermont, and entered into partnership with John McVene, to do general blacksmithing. January 28, 1827, he was married to Demarius Lamb, who became his faithful companion and helper for thirty-eight years.
A change was made in 1829 to Leicester, Vermont, where a shop twenty-five by thirty-five feet was built, which was destroyed six months after, by fire. It was rebuilt, only to be again burned. A third one was built, in which business was carried on till 1831, when the family moved to Hancock, Vermont, where Mr. Deere followed his trade, adding to his general work the business of making forks and hoes. Energy and diligence were bringing in sure but small returns, but the rumors of larger openings and richer rewards in the Great West, induced Mr. Deere to sell out his business, leave his family at Hancock, and come to Chicago. The town was small, unpromising, and planted in a swamp. Strong inducements were urged that he should remain and shoe horses and repair coaches, but he rejected them, and came to Grand de Tour, on Rock river. Here a chop was opened, and to the general work was added the building of breaking-plows. Mr. Deere soon began to see that his iron plow with wooden mold-board could not be made to do good work in the prairie soil; with difficulty they entered the ground, clogged up and failed to scour. Then began the experiments and improvements which finally resulted in the present perfect steel plow. With characteristic energy and will, the battle was pushed till success came. There was a demand for a good plow, and such a plow must be made. The first one which did satisfactory work was made in this way: Wrought-iron landslide and standard steel share and moldboard cut from a sawmill saw, and beam and handles of white oak rails. In 1838 two of these plows were made, with which the farmers were much pleased, and did unusually good work for those days. That year Mr. Deere built a dwelling house, eighteen by twenty-four feet, and brought his wife and five children from the East. It was not a few hours ride in a moving parlor, but a weary journey of six weeks by stage, canal and lumber wagon. Settled in his little home, and often shaking with ague, work was still pushed, and in 1839, ten plows were built, the entire iron work of a new saw and flouring mill being done, with no help except an experienced man as blower and striker. In 1840 a second anvil was put in the shop, and a workman employed, and forty plows made. The following year seventy-five plows were built, and trade extended many miles in all directions. In 1842 one hundred plows were made. The following year a partnership .was formed with Major Andrews, a brick shop two stories high built, a horse power put in to turn a grind stone, a small foundry established, and four hundred plows made. Steadily and rapidly the business grew till in 1846 the product was one thousand plows. The difficulty of obtaining steel of the proper dimensions and quality was a great obstacle. Finally Mr. Deere wrote to Nailor & Company, of New York, hardware dealers, explaining the demand of the growing agricultural states of the West, for a good steel plow, and stating the size, thickness and quality of the steel plates he wanted. The reply was that no such steel could be had, but they would send to England and have rollers made for the purpose. An order was sent, the steel cast in England, and shipped to Illinois. Not only was this instance of enterprise and determination shown, but the practical foresight of Mr. Deere saw that this location was not advantageous for a growing business. Coal, iron and steel must be handled by teams from LaSalle, a distance of forty miles, and plows taken long distances to market, in the same slow and expensive way. He therefore sold his interests to Mr. Andrews and came to Moline, in 1847. Here was good water power, coal in abundance, within three to five miles, and cheap river navigation. A partnership was formed with Mr. R. M. Tate and John M. Gould; shops built and work commenced, resulting the first year in seven hundred plows. About this time the first shipment of steel from England came to hand. Fifty plows were made and sent to different parts of the country where the soil was most difficult to work. They proved successful, the trade enlarged, new machinery was added, the shops enlarged, till the annual production was ten thousand plows. Mr. Deere then bought out the company. In 1858 Mr. Deere took his son, Charles H., into the business as partner (see biography of C. H.. Deere), and the business was conducted under the name of Deere & Company till 1868, when it was incorporated under the general law of the State, with John Deer as president.
In personal appearance Mr. Deere was large, well proportioned, strongly built, and had been blessed with strength capable of almost unlimited endurance. In his better days he would stand at his anvil from five in the morning till nine at night, building plows, shoeing horses, etc. His features were strong, and of lines of great power and endurance. His face was open, frank, and his address hearty, genial, bespeaking that he was a man of a tender, social nature and noble character. His feelings were near the surface, and he was singularly sensitive to pathos, whether it be that of sorrow or joy. His sympathy and help quickly responded to the calls of trouble and misfortune, and he rejoiced in the prosperity of all about him. Absorbed in business, he did not have the desire nor time for office and public trusts, which at time sought his service. He was, however, always in sympathy with public interests, and gave' liberally of his means to advance them. He was a Republican in politics since the organization of that party. He was an active member of the Congregational Church, and a generous contributor to local and foreign objects of benevolence. The religious, moral and educational interests of society had in him a friend and patron. He was a large stockholder in the First National Bank of Moline, and was its second President. He was once elected Mayor of the City, and was also one of the directors of the free public library.
In June, 1867, Mr. Deere was married to Lucinda Lamb, sister of his former wife. Of the five children by the first marriage, five are still living.

Spain PM wants 2030 World Cup bid with Morocco and Portugal
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said on Monday that he had pitched the idea of a joint bid between his country, Portugal and Morocco to host the 2030 World Cup.

"I made the proposal, firstly to the government then to King Mohammed VI to launch a shared application with Morocco, Portugal and Spain to host the 2030 World Cup," Sanchez said in Rabat after a meeting with the monarch.
"It will be the first two-continent application, with Europe and Africa, and King Mohammed VI welcomed the proposal warmly."
Earlier this year the King ordered the Royal Moroccan Football Federation to launch their own World Cup bid but the office of the Moroccan prime minister, Saad Eddine el Othmani, refused to comment on Sanchez's statement when contacted by AFP.

SUG ELECTION: MESSAGE TO THE VANGUISHED AND THE VANQUISHERS — NANS


With the real estate market showing signs of life again, we decided to take the pulse of Atlanta's loft and condo market, which was booming just two years ago before the recession made sales dry up and prices plummet.
Properties that opened before the worst of the recession seem to be faring better than the newer buildings. Aqua Midtown (www.aquamidtown.com), a 25-story luxury condominium development that opened in October 2007, is 95 percent sold, with only four units still available. Although Tivoli Properties President and CEO Scott Leventhal admits the company had to become "more considerate of the limited availability for financing," that affects Aqua's buyers.
Similarly, Plaza Midtown (www.plazamidtown.com), a high-rise condo building located between West Peachtree and Spring streets near 8th Street, opened in 2006 and its 418 units were filled at the start of 2007. Yet, due to the economy, associate manager Kevin Assari said he's seen a rise in foreclosures in the building.
"Ninety percent of the sales recently have been foreclosure purchases; these properties are usually scooped up within 30 days," he said. "Plus, the fact that 1010 [a luxury condo on 10th and Peachtree built last year] isn't budging on their prices is bringing us additional traffic." Furthermore, Plaza Midtown allows a quarter of its 418 units to be rented – and Assari said approximately 100 people are on the rental waiting list.
Another property that opened in the fall of 2008 is 10 Terminus Place (www.terminus-atlanta.com), a 32-story luxury condominium tower in Buckhead. Of the 137 units, 50 are still for sale. This success may be partly due to Cousins' "Easy As 1,2, 3" program, which was launched in August to offer savings for qualified buyers: $100,000 in savings for a one-bedroom unit, $200,000 off a two-bedroom unit and $300,000 in discounts for a three-bedroom unit.
Likewise, units at Twelve Centennial Park (www.twelvecentennialpark.com) are selling. The Downtown condo building adjacent to the Twelve Hotel opened in August 2007 and thus far 394 of the 517 units have been sold. However, according to Twelve realtor/salesperson Gina Barnabo, the price of the units was reduced by almost 40 percent. Plus, the development was originally intended to have two condo buildings joined by a hotel, but plans for the second building were put on hold when the market crashed, and there's no word on when this might change.
At least Twelve management can rest assured that its current building has residents; The Brookwood (www.thebrookwood.net), a two- and three-bedroom LEED-certified building with 219 units, was completed in the summer but is currently empty. Starwood Capital purchased the assets of Corus (which previously owned the building) late last year and is declining all interviews.
Furthermore, Ben Carter Properties' much-awaited Streets of Buckhead development (www.streetsofbuckhead.com) is at a standstill. As reported in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution in late January, Carter needs $200 million to continue with his vision of the Rodeo Drive of the South. Planned to be eight acres, Carter now hopes to open the project in 2011 with just 375,000 square feet of shopping, dining and entertainment space. He hopes to do this with private investment money, since traditional bank loans have become near-impossible. Six restaurants, two retailers, two entertainment concepts and a spa are said to have leased space.
It's not condo market crash, it's lending market crash. The lenders are not lending enough to sustain the market prices. As a matter of fact, the lenders are controlling the market prices. When they are willing to lend, the market will have a better chance.
There are some great loft buildings in the Fairlie-Polar neighborhood of Atlanta. It sure is great to see such revitalization on a downtown neighborhood!

Animal Spirits Review
I recently found a good review on Schiller and Akerlof's Book Animal Spirits, from Michelle Baddeley:
"On opening Animal Spirits, you might expect an analysis with roots in either Galen or Keynes. Although Akerlof (a Nobel laureate in economics at the University of California, Berkeley) and Shiller (an economist at Yale University) hail Keynes as their hero, their animal spirits are a broader and more diffuse phenomenon than his. They define five animal spirits: confidence, fairness, corruption (bad-faith behavior), money illusion (confusion about the effects of inflation and deflation), and storytelling (narratives that shape our sense of who we and others are). So while their analysis does not always fit neatly with a fundamentalist interpretation of Keynes, it does resonate with the growing field of behavioral economics. Moreover, they use animal spirits to take behavioral economics from the microeconomy to the macroeconomy to explain a range of macroeconomic phenomena, including financial crisis, depression, and involuntary unemployment.
Economists typically avoid psychological and sociological models because they find them too arbitrary and too difficult to quantify. Overall, Akerlof and Shiller advocate a move away from this antipathy. Animal Spirits "is a book about macroeconomics," but this is its principal problem. It is built on a foundation of findings from a behavioral microeconomics. Although behavioral economics can capture individual decision-making in an experimental context, at an aggregate level the interactions among people are too complex to provide the evidence needed to properly verify theories of behavioral macroeconomics. The authors therefore emphasize the importance of history and stories and of qualitative alongside quantitative analyses. However, the problem remains that their theory is difficult to falsify. That said, economics is often criticized for its practically misleading emphasis on theoretical precision. So it is refreshing to see two such influential economists advocating a shift toward a broader, more intuitive, interdisciplinary approach."

Q: Find the order of a subgroup of $\mathbb C^\times$
Let $\mathbb{C}^\times$ the multiplicative group of complex numbers different of zero. Let $H$ the subgroup $\mathbb{C}^\times$ of  generated by $\{i, e^{\frac{2i \pi}{5}}, -1\}$. Find the order of $H$.

I found that the neutral element is one $1$, the inverse of $i$ is $-i$, the inverse of $e^{\frac{2i \pi}{5}}$ is $e^{\frac{-2i \pi}{5}}$, the inverse of $-1$ is itself and other unnecessary items; so $O(H)= 6$. Am I wrong here? Is anyone can help me at this point?

A: The generators can be written as $e^{\pi i/2},e^{2\pi i/5},e^{\pi i}$. Then the values these can generate through multiplication are exactly the values of the form $$e^{2\pi i(m/4 + n/5)}$$ for integral $m$ and $n$ (the $-1$ adds nothing because it can itself be generated from $i$).
These in turn are exactly the distinct values $$e^{2\pi i k/20}$$ for integral $k$, of which there are twenty.

A: Hint:
Is $a$ and $b$ have orders $r$ and $s$, and  $\langle a\rangle\cap\langle b\rangle=\{1\}$, $ab$ has order $\operatorname{lcm}(r,s)$.

Introduction: Our whole life is expressed and manifested through a network of relationships: relationship with oneself, with our body, with our mind and thoughts, with our emotions and desires, with other human beings, with our partner and family, with nature and the whole universe. The ever-increasing global crisis that we are facing now is the outcome of the crises in our day to day relationships; all the wars, violence and suffering are due to the lack of understanding of oneself and one's relationships. The world is what we are and relationship is a mirror in which we can see ourselves as we are. If we do not intelligently and harmoniously relate within this vast field of relationship, problems and conflicts are bound to arise and create suffering. Human relationship can either be a ground of suffering or it can be turned into a ground for transformation and a wonderful opportunity for entering into an entirely different way of living, for creating a world based on true love, beauty and compassion.
Program: We are going to explore as friends and co-travelers fundamental questions and problems of our relationships in a relaxed, meditative and affectionate atmosphere. Questions relating to pleasure, hurt, conflict, crisis, image-making, trust, love and freedom in our relationships will be investigated deeply and openly together. The schedule will include introductory talks, meditative dialogues and shared inquiry into the human consciousness, experiment with silent observation and listening, meditation including short video talks of J. Krishnamurti. In between the sittings there will be short sessions of "Sensory Awareness", movement, touch and practical explorations of seeing and listening, facilitated by Susanne van Kimmenade.. The primary intention is that our entire day becomes a meditative process so that we can allow our minds and hearts to open up for the unknown, for our inherent goodness, trust, love and quest for truth.
Facilitator: Mukesh Gupta from Varanasi, India will be conducting this seminar. He has been exploring the teachings of J. Krishnamurti and other teachers for more than two decades. He did his Masters in Eastern as well as Western Philosophies from a university in Varanasi. He regularly conducts retreats, study programs and dialogues concerning quest for truth and holistic vision of life in India, Europe and Israël. He also takes inspiration from various the teachings of Buddha, Upanishads, Sufism, Nisargadatta and others. He believes in exploring a deep non-authoritarian meditative process of dialogue based on mutual love, respect and a quality of silence as a way to create a peaceful, non-violent society.
Logistics: Course starts on Thursday, 16 May at 10:30 am and ends on Saturday, 18 May at 5 pm. Participants are welcome to arrive by the late evening of Wednesday, 15 May. Sleeping in Mashiv Nefesh in two dormitories on mattresses or to bring your own tent. You can also book one of the many guest houses and vacation places in Clil for the time of the retreat.
Vegan rich and tasty food, three meals a day, tea and coffee, will be served in the Mashiv Nefesh kitchen.
Save a place by transferring 250 NIS to MN bank account, this money will be used to pay for the teacher's travel expenses and cannot be paid back in case of cancellation by the participant.
Recommendation for the Dana, which will be given in the end of the retreat to cover the costs of Mashiv Nefesh (recommended 300 NIS or more) and to enable the work of the teacher (recommended 300 NIS or more) according to the personal possibilities and the willingness to share.


Developer Jed Walentas listened to supporters and opponents of his Dock Street proposal for four hours at Borough Hall on Tuesday night.
Opponents of a controversial residential tower proposed to rise next to the Brooklyn Bridge brought their case to Borough President Markowitz on Tuesday night, bitterly describing developer Jed Walentas's project as bad public policy and a disastrous way to treat the fabled and legendary span.
The majority of the roughly 100 speakers at Markowitz's public hearing on the Dock Street proposal were opposed to Walentas's plan to build an 18-story tower near the Brooklyn Bridge — a project that has added a public middle school, an environmentally friendly design, and approximately 70 units of below-market-rate housing since an earlier version was rejected in 2004.
"Nothing should ever be allowed to compromise the grandeur of the Brooklyn Bridge," said Jeff Strabone, president of the Cobble Hill Association.
But many DUMBO residents, business people and artists rallied in support of the Walentas plan, which offers the hope of landing what the local community board has long listed as a top priority: a new public middle school to ease projected crowding.
The project needs a rezoning so that the site can include residential units and the school. In the first step of the public review process, Community Board 2 approved the project by a 30–7 vote earlier this month.
"This project serves the public interest of the broader Downtown community," said Joe Chan, president of the Downtown Brooklyn Partnership, citing the new school and the first below-market-rate units in DUMBO, which is rapidly becoming Brooklyn's most-expensive, and least-diverse, neighborhood.
Before the verbal fisticuffs, Markowitz reminded the crowd that he had rejected an earlier version because it put most of its bulk next to the bridge and was too damaging to the experience of the span.
Hinting at that prior rejection, Markowitz centered his opening statement on the view of the world-renowned icon.
"These views are very important to me, as I indicated by my objection to the earlier plan," he said.
After that, he kept his famously expressive mouth shut and listened to all of the four hours of testimony that followed.
The first speaker, Councilman Bill DeBlasio (D–Park Slope), joined his Brooklyn Heights colleague David Yassky in objecting to the project. But DeBlasio stuck mostly to what he said was not enough below-market-rate units in the project, which currently sets aside 20 percent of its 375 apartments as "affordable housing." "The city needs to move towards greater affordability than 20 percent," he said.
Other opponents painted Walentas, who has spent, by his own estimate, more than $100,000 to lobby city officials about the Dock Street plan over the past two years, as a man who sweetened his rejected project from 2004 with a public middle school — and then convinced city officials that this was the best offer they could get.
Indeed, as late as June, 2008, city officials were saying that they did not see a need for a middle school in DUMBO, despite demand by Brooklyn Heights-area parents for just such a school.
Then, about five months later, the city had quietly slipped the Dock Street school into its five-year construction plans.
"The School Construction Authority has not done due diligence," said Roula Foukas, a DUMBO resident who is opposed to the project.
But Jay Schipper, a real-estate developer, said he worked "for two years" to try to find a suitable site for a middle school in DUMBO, Brooklyn Heights or Downtown, but all possible locations were rejected by the School Construction Authority.
Walentas's inclusion of the middle school in his building would save the city an estimated $50 million in construction costs. But Yassky, whose middle school task force was so keen on finding another location for a school that it even briefly considered a city proposal to put a center of learning in the soon-to-reopen Brooklyn House of Detention, argued that the city could easily find another developer who would build a school for that price.
When pressed to name one, he mentioned the developer of the One Brooklyn Bridge Park condominium, and blamed the school agency for not putting such a school proposal out for bid.
Within hours, the developer withdrew his property from consideration.
The owner of a vacant lot at 205 Water St., between Bridge and Jay streets on the other side of DUMBO, sent a representative to the hearing to say that he wants to make a deal with School Construction Authority. But the owner of the lot declined to elaborate.
Yassky also reiterated his belief that the building would damage "the experience" of the Brooklyn Bridge, though a recent Brooklyn Paper investigation revealed that views of the bridge and from the bridge would not be dramatically altered.
"There is a strong constituency for and against," he said.
Walentas said the city's change of mind over the need for a middle school in DUMBO came as a result of his company showing school officials new data.
"If you're an agency charged with building the maximum number of school seats for the least amount of money, you'd be reckless not to pursue a deal with us," he said.
He also rejected the argument that the middle school was included solely to get approval for the rezoning, which will raise the value of his site and that of his company's other properties in DUMBO, a former warehouse and industrial zone that his father, David Walentas, helped turn into one of New York's most desirable neighborhoods for residents and artists.
"Yes, it is true that the rezoning would add value to the site," he said. "But because of our broader interest in the neighborhood, we're actually giving it back in the form of a school and affordable housing.
"There are people who don't want to believe that, but I'm sorry, it's true," he said.
This is the latest in a series of biased Brooklyn Paper articles concerning the Dock Street proposal. Not entirely surprising given that the Paper is a TT tenant. What is the basis for the author's assertion that a "slight majority" of the seven dozen speakers testified against the proposal? From my count -- and I was there for the entire hearing -- there were probably 4 or 5 times as many speakers speaking against the proposal as their were speaking for it.
The opposition did have a strong showing last night - hats off to them.
Hopefully Marty, Yassky and the city council will sit down with the developer and hammer out a compromise. There is too much to be lost by all parties to not be reasonable.
Carlo is right - clearly the community needs this school, and no one else is stepping forward with a proposal. I was really surprised by the personal attacks against Walentas last night - one guy called him a "spoiled rich 31-year-old stomping his feet." In any case, our electeds need to do their jobs and find a compromise.
I'm afraid that the BHA is approaching this issue by dictating to the Planning Commission and the Education Department exactly what they must do. The Education Department wants to open a new school in DUMBO, instead of saying "thank you" they are saying: No! we don't want it there, we want you to build it exactly where we say.
They are going to lose the school for us.
I would like the boro pres and his staff to know that the BHA speaks for a tiny percentage of the neighborhood. They do not speak for most of us who welcome the school and who do not believe the new apartment building will detract from the Brooklyn Bridge.
This article is not bias, it's fiction. Journalists are meant to subscribe to a code of ethics in reporting the truth, the author, Gersh, would be better served seeking a career in advertising, where distorting the truth is status quo.
The article was obviously written before the hearing, one wonders if "Gersh" actually attended.
The author also fails to mention that one presenter at yesterday's hearing presented hard scientific data that shows placing schools next to major roadways is damaging to children's developing lungs, and states are moving to mandate against it. Sandwiching a school between a garage and the Brooklyn bridge borders on criminal. Report that Gersh.
This newspaper continues to be extremely biased on this heated issue, it's such a joke! In total, 100 people testified, and about 80 spoke out in strong opposition of Dock St. DUMBO. Only about 20 were in favor of it.
It was rampantly obvious that the overwhelming majority was AGAINST the building, yet this newspaper prints "The slight majority of seven-dozen speakers at Markowitz's public hearing on the Dock Street proposal were opposed to Walentas's plan to build an 18-story tower near the Brooklyn Bridge." STOP LYING! YOU ARE A NEWSPAPER -- REPORT THE FACTS.
It is not a case of build the building or losing a school! This is how cleverly Two Trees has framed and sold this proposal. Of course there needs to be a middle school in the district. Due diligence needs to be exercised rather than selling off our treasured assets to the first developer who lifts his skirt to show us a little leg. Take a deep breath everyone. We can have both a school and a bridge. Just not in this awful, out of scale proposal. As for you you guys at the Brooklyn paper I wonder if two trees has promised you an apartment in his new building or something. You can not even pretend to be objective.
So, it's supposed to be a 200 ft. building with 310 high-end condos, 65 below-market apartments, and a school.
How about this instead: a 100 ft. building with 200 high-end condos, no below-market apartments, and a school. Is there a rule that says high-end condo buildings MUST have below-market apartments in it? If so, getting a variance wouldn't seem too tough, because they're building a school there.
I'm sorry, but I find it hard to believe that the community at large would shed any tears at the prospect of losing below-market housing in that building. Sure, it'd be nice to diversify a little bit, but if we can get our school the condos to make the project economically viable not ruin the bridge, everybody wins. And then build your low-income housing somewhere else, say, at that 205 Water St. lot that the article mentions.
A few posters who oppose the Dock Street building have alleged that The Brooklyn Paper is a "shill for the developer," that our reporting is "editorializing" and "a travesty of journalism," and that we are "obviously biased and beholden to Two Trees" because we rent an office in a Two Trees-owned building.
We don't expect everyone to agree with the emphasis of some of our stories (about Dock Street or anything else), and since we clearly know how to dish it out, we're not going to grumble about "taking it" in turn.
But do regular readers of The Brooklyn Paper REALLY believe we are "shills" for developers? Please!
As for Two Trees, it is no secret that we are rental tenants in one of Two Trees' DUMBO buildings (we've mentioned this in the past, and several posters have pointed it out on our own Web site — so, no secret). As far as we know, our lease terms are in line with those of comparable tenants. We PAY for our space.
So there is no conspiracy or secret payback here. We are not business partners with Two Trees in the sense that the business fortunes of Two Trees do not affect our bottom line (unlike, for instance, the New York Times, which has a business partnership in its Times Square building with Atlantic Yards developer Bruce Ratner).
While our coverage is honestly motivated, we accept that people with equally honest motivations might choose to approach the story differently, and that is why this comment space is open to all reasonable parties.
Several comments have suggested that I was not at the meeting or wrote my story before the meeting. Both suggestions are false.
If you were there, you saw me there — in the front row, keeping a running tally of people who spoke FOR and AGAINST the project.
The numbers reflected in a prior comment above are NOT accurate. The number of speakers on both sides of the issue was far closer than prior posters stated above.
Gersh, glad to see you read the comments. I appreciate it. If you were there and kept a tally of the for and against testimony counts, please share your findings with us. At the conclusion, Markowitz said that exactly 100 people spoke. So what was the actual break-down according to your records?
"At least 3/4 of the speakers were against the project as currently designed."
"The majority of the speakers were opposed to the tune of approximately 3 to 1..."
Mr. Ed Weintrob characterizes the Brooklyn Paper's reporting on this issue as a matter of "emphasis".
The Paper's reporting on the Dock St./DUMBO story has been so bias in favor of the developer as to be laughable and has done serious damage to the Paper's reputation as a newspaper.
Editorializing belongs on the editorial page, not on page 1 or 2 posing as news reporting.
Hopefully this feedback will be taken constructively and in the future The Paper can move towards journalistic standards.
I'm glad The Paper got called out last night at the public hearing. When writing about Two Trees and chosing its particular pro-developer "emphasis" the Paper must *each time* disclose its business relationship with Two Trees. A small line at the bottom of each article would suffice. Again, basic journalistic integrity.
Thanks for listening. I often enjoy the Brooklyn Paper and would like to see it thrive as a real newspaper for the borough.
Keep your shirt on Gersh! It's just apparent and obvious to all who have read your pieces on 'Dock Street' that you are strongly and inexplicably in favor of it. Why? What could you possibly think is "appropriate" and right about this project? I know of a few folks who, after speaking out against Two Trees, did not have their leases resigned. This is a fact. This is the kind of company they are. It is also a fact that every time Two Trees has to go up in front of a government agency to get something passed they round up all their tenants and "encourage" them to speak at these functions on their behalf. I suspect that you all are a bit afraid of upsetting your apple cart and are indeed doing the bidding of your landlord. I'm sure they will pay you back in kind.
One can appreciate the quandry of being pressured by your landlord to be "pro" his agenda. And with no intention to be offend, your reporting has been so biased and so misleading and so inaccurate that one can only hope that you are under such pressure.
Perhaps in the interest of someday gaining credibility as journalists versus agents of propaganda, you should withdraw from reporting on issues relating to your landlord?
What DEVELOPER cares about a school and searches for one for 2 yrs? LIE!
"Walentas's inclusion of the middle school in his building would save the city an estimated $50 million in construction costs." PLS explain in full.
"The owner of a vacant lot at 205 Water St., between Bridge and Jay streets on the other side of DUMBO, sent a representative to the hearing to say that he wants to make a deal with School Construction Authority. But the owner of the lot declined to elaborate until he could talk further with the city."
EVERYONE HAD 3 MINUTES, AND AS YOU SAY IN YOUR FIRST SENTENCE THE DEVELOPER WASN'T THERE, HIS REP WAS, SO HOW COULD HE ELABORATE? That may not be a LIE per se, Gersh, but it sure leans that way.
I am astonished at the lies opponents throw around like wet snow hoping they will stick. I was there for the first 2 hours and testified and found during that period there were more supporters than opponents. I do understand the opponents turned out in large numbers late, all basically saying the same things (talking points passed around in their Manhattan offices no doubt), but I don't think those people are really Brooklynites. They are mostly people who have arrived in our Borough over the last few years and who will probably leave over the next few years as they have children of their own and move to the suburbs. These people could care less for the welfare of the children of Brooklyn.
You're in deep denial. Keep fantasizing that those who spoke against the project as currently proposed were not Brooklynites or are newcomers.
It's clear from the many parents of school age children who spoke against Dock St. (the vast majority), that your repeated attempts to characterize them and those against the project as currently proposed as anti-child is a complete failure.
Perhaps if you has stuck around for more than 2/5ths of the hearing you would have heard people who have lived here all their lives and whose families are here for many generations coming out against the project.
But how would you know, because you weren't there? But that doesn't discourage you from some wishful hoping does it?
Maybe you're the one in denial and that's why you needed the 5 hour group therapy session.
After personnaly staying for 3 hours, I came to the conclusion that there was nothing new to hear. I've seen the altered renderings, the 8,000 signature book, the accusations of greed and corruption. Compromise or move on. You're starting to bore me.
I was there for the first 2 hours, my wife was there for an hour after that and returned toward the end with other supportive parents who were crowded out by the onrush of single people coming from work who don't have children at home and can be out all night. you guys have done a good job whipping up this hysteria but I think cooler heads will prevail.
Perhaps you could refrain from the personal attacks. They don't further the discussion at all.
I wish I knew your true motivation as you hide behind this identity and probably a few others.
Again, just to set the record straight, and to specifically rebut Liar Liar from Dumbo's comment above, the owner of 205 Water Street WAS at the hearing, but he declined to talk publicly, or to this reporter. In the interest of continuing our fair coverage, I was quite interested in talking to him about his lot and his negotiations with the School Construction Authority.
He said he will talk to me when he CAN talk about the negotiations.
First, I have lived in the area for over 30 years. I have personally lied down in front of paving equipment when some company thought it would benefit the communtiy to pave over cobblestones. My dedication to the area is personal.
Do you honestly think a developer will make prime water-front property 'affordable', and who defines 'affordable', well the developer, of course.
There is a middle school at 209 York Street, P.S. 307 and Satellite West, JHS. I went there. I walked 2 blocks to get to school. Can anyone please give a reason why this school is ignored by all the people claiming there is no school nearby?
It seems that placing children in a building underneath a symbol of America is inviting disaster, and I doubt the DOE will actually do this.
Let's not forget, the Brooklyn Anchorage Art space was closed for security reasons.
We will end up with a high priced rental building with no school.
Living in the area for three decades, I have come across many people who have had all sorts of 'good ideas' for what should be done with the area. Most of these people don't live here anymore. I was at the meeting, and many of the opponents of the project are neighbors of mine who have also been in the area for a long time, so please, do not insult us by saying we will move to the suburbs....none of you would even be here if not for the dedication of the early residents. I heard many people claiming the Walentas built DUMBO, that is like saying AL Gore 'invented' the internet.
nice cut and paste dude.
Even if your fairy tail is true it is not representative of the preponderance of your neighbors. I stand by my characterizations.
I suppose I too would be in favor of a new school in DUMBO if I lived there. This way my children would be segregated from the rest of NYC's kids and would solely socialize and network with other kids of the same social stature, for free, and then simply sum the need for it up to "overcrowding." This whole darn city is overcrowded!! Don't even get me started on the "AFFORDABLE" units ... who exactly are they affordable for anyway???? The fact that people want to live as close to the city as possible without paying city prices has made our boroughs completely unaffordable for the working class who were born and raised here. It makes me sick.
Welcome to the new corruption; government facilitated development bought and paid by lobbying, political relationships and ignoring the rule of law and fundamental fairness in process. Wouldn't it be better for all of us if there was just a handover of cash between government officials and developers, and we all looked the other way? No, but in the end, the result is the same. As the middle class is squeezed, the rich run away with Brooklyn in their pockets.
since you kept a tally of who spoke in favor or against, Is there any reason why you won't share it with us or your readers?
I am against the project because of one reason only, that is that it will impose it self on the Brooklyn Bridge BUT I have no doubt the the Walentas's will keep their word on the affordable housing. They did it at Court House(court and Atlantic) and there really is no reason to doubt there word. I just don't think the school is a fair trade off for the Brooklyn Bridge. I know others think otherwise but there are some things that are sacred and this is one of them. It is my understanding from the BP's office that there was about 3 to 2 who spoke against the project and most if not all of them were from Brooklyn.

Techniques for Personal Data Privacy
On: June 7, 2018 / By: Nick Farrell / Categories: Business, Data Privacy
Data Privacy is the New Standard
When a new user signs up for your product or service, you have certain legal and ethical responsibilities to that individual. One of those responsibilities is making sure that any information they share with you is kept private and secure. Over the past decade, we've seen what can happen when companies are neglectful with personal data, and in 2018, strong privacy practices can ensure that your company is making headlines for the right reasons.
GDPR and Data Privacy
Under the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), companies have a new legal incentive to protect and keep private any data they've collected on users. The deadline for implementation was May 25th, 2018, but it's never too late to start taking steps towards compliance. This post relies on a basic understanding of GDPR, so if you're completely unfamiliar with the new rules, read through our introduction to GDPR compliance.
Pseudonymization and Anonymization: Pieces of the Puzzle
Pseudonymization is the obfuscation of personal data so that it can't be read in plain text without additional information. Anonymization is the permanent de-identification of user data, rendering a set of data completely anonymous. Both of these methods make a data set unreadable to potential threats, ensuring the privacy of personal data.
As stated, data obfuscation practices allow you to store or process data in a format that is unusable as-is to bad actors. These techniques limit the exposure of personal data to both internal employees who are given access and external adversaries who gain access to your networks maliciously.
While there are any number of steps an organization can take to ensure that it is compliant with the regulations, GDPR recommends pseudonymization and anonymization as ways of bolstering user privacy. In the event of a breach, the supervisory authority in charge of enforcing GDPR may take into consideration whether or not you took the necessary steps to secure personal data before deciding on the severity of punishment. We suggest consulting with a legal professional when plotting your plan for compliance, but pseudonymization and anonymization are definitely things to consider.
User Trust
Now more than ever, users who sign up for your product expect that their personal data will be handled with care. By implementing the techniques outlined in this article, your organization can be one step closer to ensuring that your users' personal data is never exposed. Keep reading to find out more about pseudonymization and anonymization, the differences between them, and some popular ways of implementing them.
Data Pseudonymization
Pseudonymization is an approach recommended by GDPR for treating personal data so that it cannot be used to identify individual users without the use of additional information. Although there are a variety of pseudonymization techniques, they all involve replacing data with a placeholder value, or a pseudonym. This pseudonym may be a masked version of a record or a token used for retrieving the original value. The goal of pseudonymization is to limit the exposure of personal data to internal and external threats by creating a data set which is both obfuscated and realistic.
A few examples of pseudonymization techniques include:
An example of the data masking pseudonymization method.
Data masking is a pseudonymization technique that involves altering or replacing a record or part of a record without changing its format. For example, a user's unmasked social security number (SSN) might be stored as 679-69-8549, but a masked SSN using a technique to substitute the digits might look like 145-126-7741.
To mask data, characters in a record may be shuffled or substituted, and words may be substituted or obscured completely. The result is a realistic data set that cannot be reverse engineered or re-identified without additional information.
Data masking limits the exposure of personal data while still allowing for some level of operational efficacy.
Approximation is a technique for replacing specific personal data with less specific values. For example, if a user's date of birth is August 20, 1997, then an approximated record might be stored as July 1- September 25, 1997, or even just 1997. This allows an organization to remove as much specific personal data as possible from a data set while still being able to derive useful information from it.
Encryption is a cryptographic process that converts data into an unreadable format (ciphertext) so that only individuals or systems with access to the appropriate key can decrypt and read it. While not explicitly mandatory, encryption is mentioned throughout GDPR, and should be used when appropriate to protect user data.
Data can be encrypted while in storage (at rest), and can also be encrypted when being shared or transferred (in transit). Note that there's no one set of rules for when or how to encrypt personal data, and that encryption can place a heavy load on an application's compute resources. It's up to your organization to decide when to encrypt, but we strongly encourage you to look for opportunities to do so.
To tokenize a piece of data is to replace it with a unique token that acts as a stand-in which can be used to retrieve the original value. Tokenization is often used in payment processing solutions such as Apple Pay or PayPal.
For example, a user's credit card number is represented by a token. When making a purchase, the merchant receiving payment only has access to the token, rather than the actual credit card number. Since Apple Pay knows the relationship between the token and credit card number, it can take the transaction information, retrieve the credit card number based on the token, and process it like a normal purchase.
Protecting your organization is really about protecting your users. Cuttlesoft can help secure private data, and reduce the damage done by leaks.
Contact our experts to find out more.
Data Anonymization
Anonymization is the permanent de-identification of a data set so that no party will be able to identify the individuals in reference no matter what additional data they possess. The main difference between pseudonymization and anonymization is that anonymization is an irreversible process. Since anonymized data cannot be used to identify any individual, it is no longer considered personal data and as such does not fall under the purview of GDPR.
True anonymization is difficult to achieve. Anonymization is most useful in research, publishing data, and other use-cases where identifying individual users isn't necessary. Your organization should weigh the costs and benefits (both legal and technical) of anonymization before deciding to implement this data privacy technique.
A few examples of anonymization techniques include:
Noise Addition
Noise addition is the process of making random, statistically insignificant changes to a data set that preserves its process-ability while de-identifying personal data. Noise addition corrupts a data set by an unknowable amount, rendering it anonymous.
For example, a database containing users' ages could be anonymized by randomly adding or subtracting a number between 1 and 10 to the age records, and then deleting the attached name records. This would allow you to know the average age of your users (within a margin of error), but would prevent an adversary from learning their real dates of birth. This process should preferably be automated and truly random to prevent reverse engineering.
An example of the aggregation anonymization technique.
To create an aggregate data set, rather than collecting data about individuals, you'd decide which data is relevant, record only that information, and store it in a summarized form. This could be the number of individuals who fit a certain description, the number of events that occur within a given time period, or some other data points which you decide to correlate.
For example, if you wanted information on your users' heights, you could make a tally for every person between four and five feet, every person between five and six feet, and so forth. As long as you didn't collect their information in the process, the data set would be an anonymous summary of user heights.
If you wanted to aggregate an existing data set, the same technique could be applied. If there was a data set with users' names and heights, you'd tally the height counts as before, and record the tallies in a new dataset. Then, you'd permanently delete the height data from the individual user records. The result would be an anonymized summary of users' heights that would be impossible to tie back to the individual users.
The purpose of this post is to outline personal data privacy techniques as they relate to data security, user privacy, and regulations like GDPR. That being said, each organization, application, and data set is unique, and your organization will need to decide what forms of privacy are most appropriate given your particular circumstances. If your organization is truly committed to user privacy, pseudonymization and anonymization are small but integral pieces of a larger security and compliance framework.
When it comes to privacy and security, protecting yourself is really about protecting your users. They've trusted you with their information, so it's up to you to do everything you can to keep it safe. As security and compliance evolve, staying up-to-date on the latest threats and mitigation techniques is essential.

71toes H O M E: the "pretty committee"
Dave and I have pieced together this house from bits and pieces of all kinds of things we have seen over the years. We have taken a lot from ideas from "Houzz.com" (don't know what we would do without that thing!) and have loved incorporating some ideas from friends' houses who have thought things through so thoroughly through the years.
...and if you are someone like me who second guesses everything she decides and knows what she doesn't like but not always what she does.
I know in some ways it would have been great to hire a decorator from the beginning. I realize that would have been worth it's weight in gold to hire someone who could just be with me full-time and give me three options in everything and whisk me through the whole process safe and sound, IF I found someone with my same taste. But that is much harder than you'd think. There were a couple people I thought about, but neither of them really had my same sense of style nor did I think they had the capacity to really understand it. I'm so picky and have so many ideas about things I just couldn't do it.
So I thank my luck stars on a daily basis for what Dave calls my "pretty committee" (named tongue-in-cheek after a group of girls at Max's school...for reals).
They are all deliberate moms who are so busy and this is not their main profession so I have had to take whatever advice I could get when I could get it, but oh how grateful I am for each of them and how they have so often dropped things to help their sorry friend.
Heather, Dave's cousin (on right above) who lives in Utah, helped me SO much in the initial layout phases. She knows how to think through everything technical and is a magician at it.
Denise, who has helped me so much to do all the spruce-up stuff we have done in this house we live in now (see links HERE), has talked me through so many ideas and is so great to bounce ideas off of. She has her own cool new blog HERE.
Sam, Dave's cousin's wife who we adore, has helped me soooooo much as well. She has an amazing eye for decor and has talked me through so many decision. She and her husband came to the desert a while back and totally helped with some major decisions.
And she has taken so much time to talk me through things on the phone. Love her.
Stacy (on the left in the top picture), a new friend I met last year because someone told me I needed to go see her gorgeous new house, has helped me more than I can say. I will call her almost in tears (ok, a couple times actually in tears) trying to figure out can lighting or how to finish off a ceiling and she always has the best, most thought-through advice. She's been through this crazy process recently and understands the craziness it involves and she has amazing taste. Oh boy I don't know what I would do without her!
I'm pretty sure I would be shriveled up in a corner rocking myself without these women. Sooooo grateful for all that each one has helped with and that they are still willing to stick with me through the process.

Pedroza wins another stakes
New Pico Rivera pool
Norwalk COVID testing
Varsity Newsletter
La Habra Heights councilwoman resigns
By The Whittier Daily News |
POMONA – Martin Pedroza won his fourth stakes race in five days at Fairplex Park on Wednesday, guiding Marco A. Gonzalez's Celestic Night to a three-quarter length win over 13-10 favorite Winning Desire, ridden by David Flores, in the $50,000 C.B. Afflerbaugh Stakes for 2-year-olds at seven furlongs.
It was Pedroza's 69th career stakes victory at Fairplex, where he leads runner-up Flores by five.
Pedroza is Fairplex Park's career leader in victories with 630. With 24 wins in the first five days of the current meet, he would seem to be well on his way to shattering his Fairplex meet record of 51 victories set over 17 days in 2004.
He won six races on opening day Sept. 9, three on Friday, five on Saturday, six on Sunday and four on Wednesday.
Pedroza, a 45-year-old native of Panama, is seeking his 12th consecutive riding title at Pomona and his 13th overall. He tied with Corey Black and David Flores in 1989.
J J Minister was third in the Afflerbaugh, followed by Edgewick Road and El Valentin. Swiss Tart, the 8-5 morning line favorite, was scratched, as was Desert Paradise.
"I was concerned that my horse didn't want to make the first turn," Pedroza said of the son of Vindication trained by Neil French. "He was pulling me so hard, my saddle was going forward, so I had to let him go."
"He was coming off a maiden claiming win, but I thought he could handle this race," French said. "He reminds me of a few of the horses I had a few years ago by Seattle Slew. I think this horse will stretch out and go longer distances."
Celestic Light paid $5.20 to win and covered the distance under 118 pounds in 1:24.74.
Blind Luck could face Zenyatta in Lady's Secret
Blind Luck, the leading candidate for an Eclipse Award as outstanding 3-year-old filly, could challenge unbeaten Zenyatta in the Lady's Secret Stakes at Hollywood Park on Oct. 2.
"We're going to nominate her to the Lady's Secret," said Dan Ward, assistant to trainer Jerry Hollendorfer.
Zenyatta, perfect in 18 starts, is pointing to the Lady's Secret prior to a defense of her Breeders' Cup Classic victory Nov. 6 at Churchill Downs.
"We're also going to nominate Blind Luck to the Cotillion at Philadelphia Park the same day," Ward said. "The only concern about the Cotillion is it's a stakes, and she'd have to give away weight."
Blind Luck, purchased privately following a double-digit win in a $40,000 maiden claiming race at Calder on June 21, 2009, worked five furlongs at Hollywood Park on Sunday in 1:00.80.
"It's safe to say she's exceeded everybody's expectations," Ward said of Blind Luck, who, like Zenyatta, likes to spot her rivals big leads before running them down with mind-blowing charges through the stretch.

Harriniva Hotel and Hotel Jeris are located near Muonio, right on the Swedish/Finnish border. Offering several different accommodation options, these hotels are perfect for a winter visit. Christmas traditions are celebrated at both hotels. Both hotels offer cosy restaurants, welcoming staff (& the same owners) and fun activities to ensure a great stay in Finland.
Harriniva Hotel has 64 comfortable safari style rooms (think cladded pine), all with private facilities. Some of the rooms also contain a sauna. All the hotel rooms are non-smoking. Some of them have cooking facilities, drying cupboards for clothes and a TV.
Aurora wellness centre with two saunas by the river, two jacuzzis and lovely lounge room with the fireplace.
Outdoor eating options by an open fire available for groups.
The village of Muonio is within a pleasant walking distance from Hotel Harriniva (in fine weather) and has several small supermarkets, a wine & beer shop and several cafes.
Unique Lappish resort next to the Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park directly by the beautiful Lake Jerisjärvi.
Hotel Jeris has 26 cozy wilderness style rooms all with private facilities and TV. Some of the rooms also contain a bathtub. All the hotel rooms are non-smoking.
Arctic Spa where you can warm up in an electrically heated sauna or test the real Lappish wood heated smoke sauna. For the really adventurous ones, there is a 25-metre illuminated ice pool, which is kept open throughout the winter.
Free wireless Internet is available at both Harriniva Hotel & Hotel Jeris. WiFi is limited if you are staying in cabins.
Close by to Hotel Jeris is the Torassieppi Reindeer Farm and Cottages, located beside lake Torassieppijärvi. Torassieppi consists of cabin village, reindeer farm & museum, huskyfarm, Winter Village and Aurora Glamping. The original reindeer farm dates back to 1847.
Newly opened, the glamping option, Aurora Dome is a round igloo-shaped tent with husky and reindeer themed decoration and one transparent wall. The Domes are completely insulated and a fireplace with an open fire gives out both warmth and comforting ambiance.
The Domes are situated by the cabin village of Torassieppi on the bank of lake Torassieppi. The transparent walls of the Dome are facing north to insure the best possible view of the starlit sky and the ever elusive northern lights over the frozen lake.
Mod cons e.g. toilet, shower and sauna are within easy walking distance. The Domes have beds for two but can also accommodate two extra beds.
The Harriniva hotel has several wilderness cabins around the Western Lapland. Wilderness cabins are used for overnighting on several days' safaries.

Impressive…Most Impressive: A review of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order
December 8, 2019 / bengalcritiques
Image from Techradar (Not an Ewok in sight)
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is a strange miracle.
It is a more than competent action adventure title from the original creators of the Call of Duty franchise, under the sway of a publisher which has time and again proven to place profit over quality. This game should not exist. It should not be as good as it is, even though it is not fully one with the force.
Respawn Entertainment, who are known for their work on the Titanfall series, a COD spiritual successor set in the future with giant, controllable mech suits, deliver a jack of all trades and near master of all experience.
It is more a "Jedi Knight" than "Master" when it comes to what it entails in game mechanics. For the beginning of what damn well better be a new, unfettered franchise from Electronic Arts, it is enough.
Fallen Order is set in the near two decade span of time inbetween Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope, the dark times, as Obi-Wan calls them. Dark they are, whether you are a Jedi or not. In this instance, you play Cal Kestis, a Jedi apprentice in hiding following his survival of Order 66, the beginning of the Great Jedi Purge that signaled the end of their order, hence the title, and the rise of the Galactic Empire.
For those who watch Gotham, you may recognize Cal's face, as it's the same actor who plays that version of DC's Joker. Fitting, as this is not the first time a heroic male lead in a Star Wars story is portrayed by an actor who also portrayed the Clown Prince of Crime.
Cal is working in hiding as part of a scrapping team on the planet Bracca, breaking down and destroying the remnants of both the Old Republic and the conflict that ended it, the Clone Wars. Circumstances forces Cal to use the force to protect his best friend and work buddy and thus the Empire gets wind of a Jedi on the planet.
The Inquistorious, introduced in the cartoon show Rebels that acts as a sequel to the acclaimed animated Clone Wars series, are tasked with finding and purging the galaxy of any remaining Jedi. Not all the Jedi being hunted are killed. Something far worse lies in store to those that manage to be captured.
Cal makes a run for it upon his cover being blown and eventually makes it off-world with help from a odd duo and their spaceship: Cere Junda, a former Jedi master who has renounced using the force and Greez, a short four armed alien whose personality is a cross between Danny Devito and a moderately tempered Rocket Raccoon( at least the MCU version.)
Cere convinces Cal that the time for hiding from the Empire,and the Sith that control it, is over: it's time to rise up. How so? The Rebellion as seen in the Original Trilogy hasn't quite formed yet. It's only five years since ROTS. Instead, Cere wants to go on a near Indiana Jonesesque artifact hunt in search of a holocron, a force infused object of power meant to hold information.
A holocron on the planet Bogano apparently holds the key to a list of children who are force sensitive, apparently as part of a prophecy or prediction. We all know how awesome prophecies turn out in Star Wars, am I right?
Cere wants to find the holocron and with it, the children, and raise them up to be the next generation of Jedi and take the war directly to the Empire. Cal is skeptical of whether this journey is wise and he himself is ready to be the Jedi to complete it. He's not. Not yet.
Cal and the Mantis travel to several worlds in search of artifacts that act as keys to open the Jedi Temple on Bogano. One of them is Kashyyyk, the Wookie homeworld that either made its debut in Revenge of the Sith or the Star Wars Holiday Special. There is a Life Day reference so I'll let you ponder that for a bit.
Cal is aided in his journey in two ways. One is the most adorable droid in Star Wars yet, just edging out BB-8 and R2-D2. BD-1 is a small, bipedal droid that can crawl and hang on Cal during their on-foot excursions.
He scans the environment for information and secrets, heals Cal with stims and can through upgrades unlock once inaccessible crates and doors and hack certain droids like the imperial probe from Empire and the large,long armed security droids from Rogue One.
BD-1 is your most reliable ally though his response time in healing you upon request from button prompt can feel too slow at times, especially in tougher fights. The other form of aid comes from moments in his journey when he flashes back to his time as a young padawan in training under his master to learn how to do cool Jedi things to traverse the environment like wall-running, double jumping and pulling/ pushing objects.
An overly convenient partial amnesia Cal has from the trauma he endured during Order 66 is responsible for him forgetting those lessons. It's a way to spread out what is readily available for the player to do when exploring the semi-open locations on offer.
Jedi: Fallen Order does a great job of making you feel your power and skill as a Jedi grow naturally as your search continues on. It's not just the act of taking out enemies in your way, it's also using Cal's rare ability to use the force to sense objects and collect their "echoes", which both give him experience to level himself up as well as background information on the events that transpired before he arrived at a certain location.
Like learning of a family going on the run from the Empire or how the guerrilla resistance movement on Kashyyyk is doing based on those echoes recalling small moments from the past for both Cal and player to piece together.
It's not only an earnest way for Cal and the player to engage in Respawn's well-crafted slice of the Star Wars world and mythos, it makes players want to fully explore every secret and part of the worlds that are visited.
Not all the planets have these semi-open environments for Cal and BD to explore and fight through, some like the opening on Bracca are linear plot focused A to B paths, not unlike the Uncharted series.
That brings me to how Jedi: Fallen Order takes aspects of many different game series and combines them into a mold that feels completely like its own genuine article. There's the action set-pieces and traversal system from Uncharted, surprisingly thoughtful and occasionally challenging puzzles also from Uncharted and Tomb Raider.
There's the clear inspiration taken from what is easily one of the most influential game developers from both the last and current generations: From Software. "From" is their name, just so you're not confused. You may know them as the makers of the "Souls" series, creating incredibly challenging yet for those with the time and patience( not me) rewarding experiences.
Whether it be the Dark Souls titles and their spiritual predecessor, Demon Souls, or successor,Bloodborne, the mode of play involves a melee-like experience of a player going through open-ended areas full of dangers and traps in an attempt to fight and dodge their way past and through enemies.
Eventually, to progress further, they face supremely difficult bosses that absolutely demand not only a true understanding of how to play the game and your build of the character you're controlling but figuring out the boss' pattern of attack and defense.
Do it fast because when you get hit by them, you have very few chances after to reciprocate before you're dead and back to the checkpoint, which if you're careless or overconfident could be hours back at a situated location called a "bonfire".
Jedi: Fallen Order in terms of overall challenge is not entirely Dark Souls set in Star Wars. They're are several difficulty settings you can switch to at a moment's notice if one setting becomes too much for you. I haven't tried the hardest difficulty but based on the description of enemy health, damage you give and take and most importantly your "parry" response time, it sounds just about as difficult as a From title.
Two other factors from the Japanese studio influence Fallen Order in a meaningful way. They're meditation points, which are essentially this game's bonfire. There, you automatically save upon using the point and level up Cal and BD's abilities and rest, which restores your health, force and stims.
It also respawns all the enemies you have faced in your encounters exploring the planet's locations, save for bosses and several one and done enemy scenarios. This may seem unfair at first, but it is a way for you to always have your guard and focus up when dealing with enemies and to further train yourself in the game's mechanics of lightsabering, and using the force for defense and offense.
Using a point and resting is also a gamble based on how ready you are to face enemies in places you may have struggled earlier. It's ultimately more rewarding than annoying in that it makes you appreciate the depth of combat you would hope for in using the force and your lightsaber.
The second element from..From Software's line of work can be found in a game that was released this year in fact: Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. The Feudal era Japan/ Samurai simulator continued in the same style of gameplay of the studio's "Souls" titles, but with an emphasis on "parrying" your opponents. That means carefully timing your blocking of the enemies attacks to both block and attack them back, often in a maneuver that could make or break the fight.
This style of correctly blocking against your foes is very suitable for a game about being a lightsaber wielder. Nearly every lightsaber duel I have seen in Star Wars is ultimately about breaking through the other's attacks to score a hit, hopefully involving a lethal blow.
It can be challenging to know when exactly the right time to parry an attack can happen and there are alternatives to the parry, should you find the opportunity like dodging, jumping or rolling around the enemy to where they're exposed. Some enemies however are wisely placed in some situations where either you learn the parry or hope you have enough stims to bleed through the enemies' strikes.
The game, should you wish it, can be a pretty great challenge that makes your victories small and large feel like they really matter, not just for the player getting the hang of the mechanics, but for making Cal's gradual journey to get over the trauma of the past and become a true Jedi feel meaningful.
I wouldn't call this the best Star Wars story but it is certainly a worthy enough return to a larger world. The beginning of a new tale that I actually do want to see a follow up for. The acting and narrative is really decent, even occasionally great and always on point in understanding the kind of escapist adventure Star Wars was always intended to be.
The arcs of several characters including Cal, Cere and one that I will omit for mention due to it being something of a spoiler feel real and worth pursuing further, hopefully to a welcome conclusion.
In terms of disappointments, they're few and not above post release revision. Playing on the PS4, in a similar vein to Control from earlier this year, the game's performance can leave much to be desired. Old problems interfere with Cal's adventure like slow-down, frame-rate drops and textures popping in or taking longer than I would like to load in. Visually, it can make a beautifully realized Star Wars story look ugly in several intervals.
It makes it much harder to ignore that Jedi: Fallen Order appears to be running on older hardware which means it's not the most graphically up to date game in the first place. When the game's performance worsens in these moments, though patches have been steadily improving overtime, it can actually get you killed while playing while also blowing the needed sense of immersion into your own Jedi power fantasy.
The other issue has to do with a pre-order bonus for the game, the closest the game comes to resembling an EA product. Like many, I waited until after release and the reviews came in to pick up Fallen Order. The pre-order bonus was an orange color for your lightsaber blade. This also acts as confirmation that the new Disney management of the lore considers orange-bladed lightsabers canon. And the fans rejoiced!
Turns out, partially thanks to tigers and Half-Life, orange is my favorite color. If I was a Jedi and had to choose the Kyber crystal for my weapon, it would certainly be orange. Despite its orientation on the color spectrum, it's still a light side color. Only black and red are dark side colors, which sucks if you like those.
I'm hoping they make orange a downloadable piece of content for everyone later down the road, otherwise it sucks that my preferred color for a lightsaber in the game is cordoned off for the elite "preorder crowd."
Furthermore, the customization system in the game can feel somewhat disappointing. Don't take it the wrong way, it's better than making all the cosmetic unlockables be stuck behind a money-grubbing paywall, as EA is infamously want to do, especially with their take on the multiplayer Battlefront games. Be thankful for what you got, I guess.
The customizables come in the form of parts and color schemes for your lightsaber, which you can change as much as you want at workbenches, even creating forms that can resemble classics used by Obi-Wan, Darth Vader, Mace Windu and Luke Skywalker.
You also can find through unlockable chests littered throughout the game's planets color schemes for BD-1, your ship the Mantis as well as outfits For Cal which come in both jackets and…ponchos. Some of the designs look great and Jedi-like but it is odd that you can't choose other styles of wear like Jedi clothing and robes, vests not unlike what Han Solo would wear or something else new. Often, I had Cal not wear the ponchos and just have different colors of the same jacket.
Nothing else comes to mind. The game's length, depending on how interested you will be in exploring fully the planet locations and finding all the items to customize and strengthen Cal, will vary. It is not a very long game, but I struggled to really consider it short. It feels just long enough for the chapter or episode it wants to tell, enough meat to sate future endeavors.
This is only the beginning of hopefully a well-crafted new side to the ongoing cultural juggernaut that is Star Wars, whether you like, love or love to hate on for reasons reasonable or petty. It's a Star Wars tale where the obstacles in your way are worth persevering over, whether those obstacles were intentional or not.
Of course the force is strong with this game, my and maybe your feelings already knew it to be true.
