BOSTON -- October 3, 2003 -- Creo Inc. demonstrated efficient, integrated prepress solutions for outstandingg print quality at Graph Expo, North America's largest print industry trade show this year. Creo featured the newest developments to help printers of all sizes to streamline their operations, become more profitable and expand their markets at Graph Expo from September 28 to October 1, 2003 in Chicago, IL. Creo Positive Thermal Plate (PTP) Launch... New and existing Creo customers in North America and Europe, where Creo PTP is now available, can implement a cost-effective, highly-integrated, all-Creo prepress solution that includes creative software, digital camera backs, scanners, workflow management systems, proofing devices, computer-to-plate imaging systems as well as the thermal printing plates. The Creo Positive Thermal Plate uses the company's own patented plate technology. The Creo plate is suitable for long-run lengths with no pre- or post-baking; has great press performance, and batch-to-batch consistency. Networked Graphic Production Partners Total 27... More than two dozen industry-leading companies have joined Networked Graphic Production(tm), the strategic initiative launched by Creo two years ago, to create a seamless, integrated production environment using open industry standards such as JDF. "These leading vendors have committed to create JDF-based integration and deliver tangible benefits to our joint customers," says Amos Michelson, Creo chief executive officer. "Networked Graphic Production is helping printers, print buyers, suppliers and creative professionals to integrate, automate and optimize their operations and create a more efficient and collaborative environment. We are making interoperability real." Efficiency Demonstrated on the Show Floor... The Creo booth at Graph Expo incorporated an on-site print shop demonstrating integrated solutions for creative, prepress and digital printing. The designer studio was equipped with the brand new Leaf(tm) Valeo 22 digital camera back, the iQsmart3(tm) professional color scanner and the Integris(tm) proofing solution. Creo featured a new faster Integris proofer model, double-sided printing capability, additional Integris media, color services, and enhanced Profile Wizard(tm) software support. These enhancements make the Integris proofing system the most complete drop-on-demand proofing solution on the market. Synapse Prepare software is ready to create print-ready PDF files and the new version of the Synapse InSite prepress portal demonstrates remote job submission, proofing, collaboration, approvals and workflow automation with unprecedented control, performance and integration with prepress workflow. Integrated management information systems from Networked Graphic Production Partners, Printcafe and Prism, are online exchanged data automatically with the prepress and business systems through Synapse Link software. Material usage and customer changes are tracked for efficient billing of chargeable items. The EverSmart(tm) Supreme scanner is operating in the prepress department where the new Veris(tm) proofer is producing proofs with the Creo Certified Process(tm). The latest versions of Prinergy and Brisque workflow management systems, with new features and enhanced productivity, drive the highly automated Lotem 400 platesetter that is exposing the new Creo Positive Thermal Plate. Prinergy 2.2 Released... The latest version of the Prinergy workflow management system focuses on powerful new automation, enhanced quality and control in the press room. Version 2.2 features the new Creo PDF Trapper with enhanced functionality and user-friendliness in addition to the existing automated and manual, press-ready PDF-to-PDF vector trapping and interactive editing. Prinergy also features the new Creo Color Management, which enables complete ICC-based color management for platemaking and proofing. New functionality such as 'Center Page' and the 'CEPS Detector' reduce the need for manual intervention as well as enhancements for exiting licensable features such as the Advanced Production Automation Editor. Prinergy 2.2 also features new versions of Creo Virtual Proofing System software for Mac OS X and Windows supporting transparent colors, an unlimited number of spot colors, stronger zoom functions and the ability to save color definitions across multiple jobs. Existing Prinergy users with Creo support contracts can upgrade their software to all the new features of version 2.2 at no charge. Pandora Boosts Productivity... Creo also demonstrated Pandora 2.5 software, the latest release of the PDF-based step-and-repeat packaging layout solution. Prepress professionals in packaging and label printing are experiencing increased efficiency and greatly improved accuracy. New Automation for Trendsetter CTP... Creo demonstrated the new ContinuousLoad automation option for the recently introduced Trendsetter 400 II and Trendsetter 800 II computer-to-plate systems. The ContinuousLoad option includes a new load table on which a plate can be pre-staged for loading while another plate is imaging, and a fully automatic unload table which delivers imaged plates directly to an in-line processor. The 8-page systems also include a plate rotator on the unload table to ensure the plate is delivered to the processor most efficiently. This combination of features allows the Trendsetter 800 II to reach its maximum productivity of 34 8-page plates per hour with less frequent operator intervention. The ContinuousLoad option will be available later this year and will be compatible with the Spectrum halftone proofing option for maximum flexibility. Field upgrade to the fully automatic Trendsetter Autoloader option will also be available. Digital Printing... Creo also features a digital printing department with the Spire(tm) color server driving the Xerox DocuColor(tm) 6060 digital press, with the Darwin(tm) Desktop variable information authoring tool for creating, proofing and printing complex personalized jobs. New Spire color servers are being launched for the Xerox DocuColor 3535 and 5252 production printers. These servers provide high-quality color, good productivity and variable data printing capabilities at affordable system rates to commercial printers, graphics arts and office environments. Staccato Showcase... Thousands of samples printed of commercial printing, packaging, and publications produced by Creo customers with Staccato screening are underwent intense inspection by Graph Expo visitors. Remanufactured Creo Systems... At booth #4753, a remanufactured Lotem 400 computer-to-plate system was on display. Remanufactured Creo platesetters and imagesetters undergo the same rigorous quality checks on the same production line as a brand new product.


While every month we open magazines to new style rules, new orders of fashion, the truth is we're all different. While a 6'1" size 6 girl may look amazing in floaty, white dress, I am far too pale to pull off white and far too curvy to pull of anything loose. And while high-waisted is my style of choice, it's not always flattering on other body types.
Learning what does and does not work for you is a long, laborious and often embarrassing task. We all make mistakes. And while I can pretend I am a complete fashionista, the truth is I make mistakes all the time (which is why you don't get outfit posts every day, mwahaa). I'm still learning what does and doesn't suit my body, my style and my personality.
But the more you learn the less mistakes you make in the future (or at least you'd hope so!!). Here are a few things I've learnt about my self after making many, many mistakes.
This refers to both clothes and shoes. I have lost count of the number of times I have gone out in a pair of my mum's shoes and convinced myself that although she is a size smaller than me that they fit. I have lost count of the number of times I have come home with bleeding feet.
And just because a skirt zips up, it does not mean it will look good. Over-hang is not a good look.
Just because your feet don't hurt at the start of the night it doesn't mean they won't be aching after a night of dancing til you drop. That walk to the taxi rank will be the longest of your life. And next time you think about taking your shoes off to walk home, think if you'd eat something you dropped on the pavement when you were sober.
I love red lipstick, but I also love dark eyes. I think I've finally found a balance between the two, but there were a lot of times when I thought I could pull it off...only to find Chuckles the Clown staring back at me in the mirror.
I'd love to be one of those girls in an oversized shirt and leggings, or in their boyfriends clothes. For me, oversized clothes equals oversized look. Not one I'm especially fond of.
For some people, they can look amazing. For me? They make me look pregnant. With triplets. At 9 months.
Don't ask why, but my legs are always covered in bruises. I think I just walk into things. Bruised legs are not a good look. Cleverly concealed under light, sheer tights though and you'd never be able to tell my legs aren't a lovely golden brown.
I have a habit of rewearing clothes I have that are at least a size too big, mainly jeans, shorts and skirts I love too much to replace. Not only is having to constantly yank things up not especially attractive (have you ever noticed there's no good, or subtle, way to pull up your jeans?) but falling-down bottoms can make you look big enough to fit in them.
This is my personal opinion at least. I am over-dressed for life. Being over-dressed can make you feel uncomfortable at first, but if you wear it with confidence you'll be the best-looking person in the room. If you always wear something that makes you feel good you can't go wrong.
My style is always developing. When I think I have it down, I'll create something completely new and fresh. I like to feel "me" in whatever I wear, but I'm learning to let myself go and experiment with things that I wouldn't normally consider. Don't get too comfortable or stuck in a rut with what is "you" and what isn't. Fashion is constantly changing and evolving, and you should evolve with it.
This may sound contradictory faced with what I said above, but finding your own style is a unique and fantastic experience. While I always want to try new things, I know who I am and my style reflects that. Have fun with fashion but stay true to who you are. Never wear anything that makes you feel uncomfortable, not matter how in style is it. You are who you are, and you will always be in style.
These are great fashion rules to live by! I love the first one about getting something on. There's a thin line between "fit into" and "fits right"
Great rules! Thanks for sharing.

Stanford offensive lineman Andrus Peat earned his third All-America honor in as many days on Friday when the offensive tackle was named ESPN.com's All-America team.
Peat was named to the Walter Camp All-America second team on Thursday and was also named to the CBS Sports second team, as well, at offensive tackle.
Peat anchored the Cardinal's offensive line at left tackle in 2014.
The Walter Camp All-America team is the nation's oldest All-America team, now in its 125th season.
Given the teams relative lack of success this year, and the disappointing NFL performance of Jonathan Martin, and with Peat not making first team AA, he would do better to wait a year and mature a bit more, and he could be a first rounder.

The Thai whiting, Sillago intermedius, is a species of coastal marine fish of the smelt-whiting family Sillaginidae. The Thai whiting ranges from the west coast of India to the Gulf of Thailand in the east, inhabiting silty substrates in shallow waters. First identified in 1977 from a specimen found in a fish market, the species has had little research performed on its biology, and is frequently misidentified as Sillago sihama or Sillago maculata Thai whiting are commonly caught by fishermen throughout their range and are marketed fresh locally.

Taxonomy and naming
The Thai whiting is one of 29 species in the genus Sillago, which is one of three divisions of the smelt whiting family Sillaginidae. The smelt-whitings are Perciformes in the suborder Percoidea.

The species was first recognized and named Sillago intermedius by Wongratana in 1977 after a number of unknown sillaginid individuals were found in a Thai fish market whilst Wongratana was collecting specimens of sillaginids to be sent to McKay for his review of the Sillaginidae. He based his description on a specimen taken from the east coast of Thailand in 1977, which was allocated to be the holotype. The species has been subsequently misidentified as Sillago maculata, as the blotches on the species are fairly similar.

Description
As with most of the genus Sillago, the Thai whiting has a slightly compressed, elongate body tapering toward the terminal mouth. The body is covered in small ctenoid scales extending to the two rows of cheek scales and head. The first dorsal fin has 11 spines and the second dorsal fin has 1 leading spine with 21 to 22 soft rays posterior. The anal fin is similar to the second dorsal fin, but has 2 spines with 21 to 22 soft rays posterior to the spines. Other distinguishing features include 67 to 70 lateral line scales and a total of 34 vertebrae. The species has a known maximum length of 20 cm.

The swim bladder has two anterior extensions which extend forward and diverge before terminating above the auditory capsule. Two lateral extensions commence anteriorly, sending tubules to the anterior and extending below the abdominal wall adjacent to the swimbladder. There are also two posterior extensions which project into the post-coelomic region. The morphology of the swim-bladder is quite similar to S. sihama, but the tubules are very simple, unlike S. sihama which has complexly folded extensions.

The Thai whiting is a pale silvery colour, being darker on top and lighter below. The top of the snout is blackish, while the opercle, preopercle and preorbital are bright silver. The sides of the body below  the lateral line have a longitudinal row of 8 or 9 dark blotches. The back also has a row of dusky blotches. The caudal fin has darker upper and lower rays, with all other fins hyaline in appearance.

Distribution and habitat
As its name suggests, the Thai whiting occurs predominantly in Thailand where it ranges the Gulf of Thailand, extending westward to the west coast of the Indian subcontinent, apparently having a fairly scattered distribution.

The Thai whiting is a shallow water, inshore species which inhabits open silty substrates at depths of 0 to 10 m, occasionally entering estuaries. Nothing else known of its biology.

Relationship to humans
Like other sillaginids, the Thai whiting is taken on a small scale by fishermen throughout its range, where it is sold fresh in local markets. It is often not differentiated form other sillaginids due to its close resemblance to both S. sihama and S. maculata.

Count Claes Adolph Fleming (1771–1831) was a Swedish court official and diplomat, and member of the Swedish Academy.  He was the one of very few personal friends and confidants of king Gustav IV Adolf of Sweden, and according to Hedvig Elisabeth Charlotte of Holstein-Gottorp he was often courted by petitioners, but normally refused to make use of his influence.  He was given numerous diplomatic missions by the king, and accompanied him to Saint Petersburg in 1796.

I am blogging in my new position as Executive Director of the Foundation for Food and Agriculture Research. I find it almost too good to be true that I am able to see this new organization through its inaugural years.
What an exciting opportunity for the research community and for agriculture! Authorized by the 2014 Farm Bill, FFAR plays a unique role in funding research that seizes on scientific opportunity and is advanced through mutual interest by both the private and public sectors. In other words,partnership is the name of the game at FFAR.
USDA is one close partner and the research we expect to fund here at FFAR will be complimentary to the important research going on at the Department. What is unique is that we are going to find knowledge gaps or other distinct research opportunities where an influx of FFAR support coupled with funds from partners will accelerate innovative science to have rapid benefit. So a critical component of FFAR's role is to identify areas ripe for the picking (I had to get some agricultural puns in there somewhere!).
FFAR has seven research topic areas where we are exploring ways to engage the community in the broadest way to gather input on potential research questions and programs we want to launch.
You will have an opportunity to be part of the conversation; it will happen in a number of ways and in a number of venues. As you see our website is quite basic right now but is being constructed quickly to be an interactive site where you can get the latest and greatest from FFAR and learn how we will engage you and you can engage us.
Please also take the time to meet our fabulous Board, chaired by Dan Glickman and composed of incredible thinkers from a broad spectrum of organizations across the food agriculture enterprise. In the past year, they have worked incredibly hard to shape FFAR and put us in a great place to take off quickly.
We expect to launch a number of programs in the coming months so, stay tuned for more from me.
Check out the website and keep this blog bookmarked as well.

Weitz doesn't tend to direct many films, but when he does, they're scored by Alexandre Desplat – this is their fourth consecutive collaboration, going back over a period of eleven years – and they have been very different films and scores, from The Golden Compass (which inspired one of the composer's richest fantasy scores) through Twilight: New Moon (with its gorgeous piano theme) and then the much more serious A Better Life (with a very low-key score). This score is, of course, very different again.
It begins with the incredible main theme, presented in the opening cue. It's like an Ennio Morricone political thriller theme from 50 years ago, jagged piano figures mixing with an exotic array of percussion and colourful winds – more about the rhythm and the texture than the melody, it's extremely memorable and creates just the right mix of intrigue and excitement – and style. From that terrific piece we move to "Sacrificed Children" and, as you may expect from a piece with such a title, that one's not quite as uptempo a number – strained strings mixed with (possibly synth?) choir, a funereal atmosphere.
Martial snare drums open "Nazis Rising", gradually joined by strings and piano – after about a minute of the tension rising to explosive levels, Desplat suddenly pulls back and offers a gentle, tentative piano solo with swirling strings underneath. It's very dark; and then the melody in "Malkin's Memories" is haunting, heartbreaking, the same ensemble (piano and strings) being used in a very different way now. The main theme returns – albeit it very subtly – in "Setting Up Operations", another potboiler of a cue.
The tension continues in "Stakeout" – less interesting now, simple little string figures repeating endlessly – it's a long cue and the album would probably be better off if it had been edited down to the last couple of minutes or so only, in which the composer brings in a yearning melody for the strings which certainly does leave an impression. Even more of an impression is left by "Death", which introduces the score's secondary theme, Jewish hints to the melody which shines above some fairly subtle disharmony under it.
"Killing in the Woods" has that haunting quality again which was heard earlier in the score – it's so dramatically potent. There's a kind of action music in "Race to Airport" – it's got the same jagged martialism as the main theme – before things go more low-key and much more subdued in "Solingen Blade". In "Number 45326" Desplat brings the choir back and follows it with rumbling percussion, some ticking clock-type percussion and, towards the end, some dynamite low-end piano writing. "The Monster" lives up to its name – the choir is unsettling now, multi-layered, an increasingly-dissonant orchestral presence emerges from it; this is followed by the sombre "Lost Children".
Suddenly everything springs to life in "Air Control", a riveting piece which includes both of the score's themes and is certainly one of its standout cues. Finally, in "To Israel", there's the first real warmth in the whole score – the strings starting to soar away a little bit now. The album concludes with what are I assume "concert arrangements" of the two main themes – "Operation Finale (orchestral)" does what its name suggests and adds a more conventional wash to the more guttural ensemble that performed the theme for the album's opening, then "Sorrow" seems to be an extended version of the earlier "Death".
 Operation Finale is for the most part a very serious and often very dark score, as you'd expect, which means that even though it contains all the ingredients of a typically classy Alexandre Desplat score for a serious drama, it's perhaps not one that people will return to quite as frequently as many of his other scores (and perhaps a few minutes of suspense music could have been chopped from the album to make it a tighter listening experience). That's reflected in the rating below – but I should also say that the main title theme is total dynamite (easily one of 2018's most dynamic and memorable new pieces of film music) and it's not like the album is unlistenably dark. I'm sure most Desplat fans – like me – will be impressed.

Hilbert went on a late 17-3 scoring run in Wednesday's AMCC contest against Pitt-Bradford, turning a one-point deficit into a 90-80 setback for the Panthers.
Manny Welch's long three with nine minutes remaining in the game gave Pitt-Bradford a 65-64 lead, its first since the 3:38 mark of the first half. Hilbert would convert a pair of free throws to jump back ahead, but Evan Greening's layup inside made it 67-66 Panthers.
The Hawks would seize the lead for good on their ensuing possession, and Jalen Smith's three from the top of the key moments later had the visitors off and running. To compound matters, the Panthers missed four consecutive shots, and they trailed 78-67 before scoring their next bucket. Hilbert sealed the game at the line, going 5-6 over the final 95 seconds.
It was a close-knit affair until the final 8:13 as the game was tied or the lead exchanged hands 18 times. Pitt-Bradford led most of the first half before Hilbert scored 10 of the final 13 points in the period to lead 38-33 at the break.
Hilbert shot 54 percent from the floor, scored 42 points in the paint, and was 15-20 from the charity stripe. The Hawks outrebounded Pitt-Bradford by two and netted 17 points off 13 Panther turnovers.
Pitt-Bradford hit at a 48 percent clip from the field yet went cold down the stretch, missing 12 of its final 15 shots. Christian Kelly-Perkins and Welch combined to hit nine of the Panthers' 12 threes.
Kelly-Perkins finished with a career-high 23 points, going 9-15 from the floor, and Fateem Brockington chipped in with 16. Welch totaled 15 points, and Evan Greening recorded his 13th double-double of the season, scoring 14 points and pulling down 18 rebounds.
Pitt-Bradford drops to 7-8 on the season and 5-5 in the AMCC. The Panthers will host La Roche Saturday at 4 p.m.


Sony Crackle's set a February 21, 2019 premiere date for the second season of the dramatic series, The Oath. According to Crackle, season two will consist of eight new episodes, down two episodes from the show's first season.
Ryan Kwanten (True Blood), Cory Hardrict (American Sniper), Katrina Law (Sacred Lies), and J.J. Soria (Animal Kingdom) return to lead the cast of the new season. Elisabeth Rohm (The Last Ship) also returns along with Michael Malarkey (The Vampire Diaries), Isaac Keys (Get Shorty), Andrew Howard (Hatfields and McCoys), J. Anthony Pena (Unsolved: The Murders of Tupac and the Notorious B.I.G.), Kim Delaney (NYPD Blue), Isabella Rivera-Gandulla (Speed Kills), and Braulio Castillo.
New to the cast for the drama's second season are Christina Milian, Leona Lewis, Zulay Henao, Kevin Connolly, Erik King, Richard Burgi, Sebastian Zurita, Russell Wong, and Carlos Sanz.
Joe Halpin (Hawaii Five-O, Secrets and Lies) created the series, calling upon his experience as a former Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department deputy in South Central to provide a gritty inside look at law enforcement. Halpin writes and serves as showrunner. He also executive produces along with Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson, Dennis Kim, Todd Hoffman, and Anne Clements.
Kevin Connolly, Jeff T. Thomas (Blindspot, Wayward Pines), and Scott Mann (Heist) directed season two episodes.
The Oath explores a world of gangs made up of those sworn to protect and defend. Shedding light on corrupt and secret societies nearly impossible to join, only the chosen few make the cut – and once inside, members do what they must to shield each other from enemies who attack from both outside and within their own ranks. The sophomore season of the action-packed drama finds the Ravens attempting to free themselves from their debt to the cartel. Themes including redemption and the meaning of family are examined in season two pushing the characters to find a new path, conquer their inner demons and giving them one last chance to reclaim their lives as their own – all while trying to protect the ones they love in the process.

Nine 'Golds' for the Havas Lynx Group as it celebrates best ever PM Society Awards success
Creative campaigns to raise awareness of an incredible milestone in modern HIV treatment and the danger of a second heart attack has helped a global communications agency achieve its best ever year at the PM Society Awards.
The Havas Lynx Group is composed of agencies Havas Lynx, Union, Faze and H4B Manchester. The group, who recently created 60 new jobs at its offices in Manchester and Kings Cross, secured a record-breaking nine Gold Awards at the prestigious ceremony held at the Grosvenor Hotel in London. This award win follows an incredibly successful year for the group which saw the team collect the sought-after Cannes Lions Healthcare Agency of the Year.
Union and Havas Lynx were the proud agencies who collected nine Gold Awards for six cutting-edge campaigns for a host of global clients, including ViiV, Sanofi Genzyme and Regeneron, Teva and AstraZeneca.
The 'Gold' Awards were followed up by further recognition for the group, with H4B Manchester, Union and Havas Lynx securing a further 14 Silver and Bronze titles covering Disease Awareness (Patients), Corporate Communications and Events and Exhibitions.
"Last year, we were recognised in 11 different categories so to almost double that in 2019 is a fantastic achievement, especially when you consider the scale of competition and standing of the PM Society Awards," explained Tom Richards, Chief Creative Officer of Havas Lynx Group.
"It really shows the important role creativity has to play within pharma and healthcare communications, and how a strong creative idea has the potential to drive that all important messaging to make a difference to the lives of patients. It's a really exciting time to be a creative working in pharma."
Now in its 33rd year, the PM Society Awards are widely regarded amongst the most esteemed professionals in the pharmaceutical healthcare sector and is the biggest annual gathering in the industry.
They are unique among healthcare creative awards in that they include categories judged by healthcare professionals – the targets of the work (TARGET), as well as a creative panel from the industry (CRAFT).
Competition this year was once again fierce, with entries from over 70 creative departments.
The full list of Gold wins for the Havas Lynx Group, include:
Film & Animation (Patients): U=U for ViiV
Havas Lynx
Events & Exhibitions: Below, above and beyond for Sanofi Genzyme and Regeneron
Interactive Communications: Maxbot for Teva
Mixed Media Campaign: See Below for Sanofi Genzyme and Regeneron
Innovation Awards: See Below for Sanofi Genzyme and Regeneron
Disease Awareness (HCPs): The Attack for AstraZeneca
Film & Animation (HCPs): The Attack for AstraZeneca
Best Use of Insight: This Day is For You for Sanofi Genzyme and Regeneron
Disease Awareness (Patients): This Day is For You for Sanofi Genzyme and Regeneron
U=U Campaign
Union, part of the Havas Lynx Group, was awarded for the U=U campaign developed to communicate an incredible milestone in modern HIV treatment.
The aim was to raise awareness that a person with HIV, whose viral load has reached an undetectable level due to effective treatment, cannot pass the virus on to their sexual partners… or in other words Undetectable=Untransmittable.
The agency, which offers campaign development, brand strategy, healthcare innovation and capability building, produced a ground-breaking film as part of the work, sharing the positive message that U=U.
The film was developed as part of a collaboration between 13 leading HIV charities, including The Terrence Higgins Trust, The National AIDS Trust, NAM and CHIVA.
Dave Hunt, CEO of Havas Lynx Group concluded: "We launched our new agency vision at the start of 2019 and have some very exciting plans for the year ahead… this is a great way to kick things off.
"Our PM Society Awards success highlights how we're continuing to lead the charge in creatively executing communication within pharma and healthcare to unlock the potential of medicine, which will ultimately deliver positive outcomes for all stakeholders within healthcare."
It really shows the important role creativity has to play within pharma and health communications and how a strong creative idea has the potential to drive that all important messaging to make a difference to the lives of patients. It's a really exciting time to be a creative working in pharma. TOM RICHARDS, CCO, HAVAS LYNX GROUP

Trump's 'Forced Separation' of Migrant Families Is Both Illegal and Immoral
CHILDREN ARE PEOPLE
Both the Constitution and American moral values protect families. An immigrant-crazed immigration policy is tearing them both apart.
Jay Michaelson
Updated Jun. 01, 2018 11:19AM ET / Published May. 31, 2018 4:49AM ET
Details of the Trump administration's new "forced separation" policy of separating migrant children from their parents have horrified observers of all political persuasions. Though the policy is only two weeks old, over 650 children have been torn from their families since it began.
There have been harrowing stories of infants taken from their parents' arms, of refugees who fled gang violence in Central America accused of being gang members themselves and having their children sent thousands of miles away to detention facilities.
But is the policy justified?
Attorney General Jeff Sessions said in announcing the policy that "a crisis has erupted at our Southwest Border that necessitates an escalated effort to prosecute those who choose to illegally cross our border." He continued, "To those who wish to challenge the Trump Administration's commitment to public safety, national security, and the rule of law, I warn you: illegally entering this country will not be rewarded."
There's actually a lot in there, but it boils down to four claims: public safety, national security, the rule of law, and the need for a deterrent against further immigration. The trouble is, none of those claims hold water legally or ethically.
Legally speaking, the Constitution strictly forbids separating parents and children for any reason save one: if the parent is a threat to the child. This right is grounded in Fifth Amendment due process, as courts (and in particular conservative judges) have consistently held. As the Supreme Court held in 2000, "the interest of parents in the care, custody, and control of their children… is perhaps the oldest of the fundamental liberty interests recognized by this Court."
That fundamental right is now the basis of a class action lawsuit filed by the ACLU. "Due process protects family unity," Lee Gelernt, the lead lawyer of the case, told The Daily Beast. "The only reason compelling enough [to tear apart the family] is if there is a danger to the child."
Obviously, no such danger exists, or has even been alleged, in the hundreds of cases of forced separation that have taken place over the last month. That's not the point of the separation. The point, as Sessions said and as the government has said in the ACLU case, is strict enforcement of immigration law.
But that purpose does not justify separating children from their parents.
"Our lawsuit doesn't prevent the government from detaining migrant families—just from separating them," Gelernt noted. "You can hold them in a family detention center."
Indeed, the forced separation policy flouts numerous international legal norms. For example, Article 9 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, requires that "the best interests of the child shall be a primary consideration" in all administrative actions. Article 9 specifies that "States… shall ensure that a child shall not be separated from his or her parents against their will, except when competent authorities subject to judicial review determine, in accordance with applicable law and procedures, that such separation is necessary for the best interests of the child."
Now, as it happens, the United States is, literally, the only country in the world that has not joined that convention. It requires Senate ratification, and some conservative senators believe it would trample on U.S. sovereignty and, by granting rights to children, interfere with familial rights. But as a legal norm, the "best interests of the child" generally and opposition to forced separation specifically has long been encoded in American legislation, administrative law, and government policy.
The ethical failings of forced separation, though, are even more pronounced.
First, there is absolutely no evidence that this policy change will affect the calculus of a mother fleeing gang violence in Guatemala. But even if it would, the policy punishes children in order to change parental behavior. That is immoral. You don't punish an innocent person to try to get a guilty person to do something.
And let's be honest: Among Trump's supporters, the real reason isn't deterrence—it's punishment. These illegals are breaking the law, after all. If they didn't want this to happen, they shouldn't have come here in the first place.
"If you're smuggling a child, then we're going to prosecute you, and that child will be separated from you, probably, as required by law. If you don't want your child separated, then don't bring them across the border illegally. It's not our fault that somebody does that." That's Sessions again, this time speaking on May 7, when the forced separation policy was put into place.
If it's not "our fault," is it the child's fault?
That, too, is immoral. It's making the sins of the father the sins of the son, in Biblical language. No 3-year-old is morally responsible for the actions of their mother or father. And yet the child is punished for them.
Children aren't the property of their parents; this isn't like taking away someone's house or car. Children are people, with their own rights—limited, of course, but still there—and status as moral subjects. Punishing them for someone else's misdeeds—setting aside the question of whether fleeing gang rape and murder is a misdeed—is immoral.
And make no mistake: the children are the ones who are punished the most. Numerous studies have shown the negative consequences—increases in anxiety, depression, aggression, and cognitive impairment—of separating young children from their parents, even for as little as two weeks.
The separations we're talking about can last for months—longer, if the parents are deported.
"Children are people, with their own rights—limited, of course, but still there—and status as moral subjects."
And that's not even taking into account the systematic abuse of migrant children, as revealed in an unrelated ACLU investigation of abuse in Customs & Border Protection (CBP) custody from 2008 to 2014. That investigation uncovered abuses including "denial of medical care; verbal threats; physical and sexual abuse; and inhumane detention conditions."
(Incidentally, these abuses do not include the "losing" of 1,475 migrant children who had been placed with sponsors. Many factors may account for the children being lost to the system—some may have gone to live with relatives who are themselves undocumented, some may be with sponsors who simply didn't respond to survey questions—and the last thing immigration advocates want is some government police force hunting down those kids.)
Of course, when a person commits a crime, they may be sent off to jail, even if that means separating them from their children. But that's not like taking a child away from their parents when the child has nowhere else to go. And let's remember, these "forced separations" happen at the beginning, not the end, of a long process.
The ACLU lawsuit tells the stories of several asylees who were deemed to be totally justified (they faced a "credible threat" of violence in their home countries) and who still had their children taken away. In other words, everyone was innocent, including the parents. But the children were separated at the very beginning, and it took months for the legal process to unfold. Many such processes take years.
As a parent myself, I cannot understand how social conservatives interested in "family values" can stomach the moral evil of "forced separation." To be more honest, I find myself filled with rage. To think that there is any good reason of any kind for ripping an 18-month-old out of the arms of her mother—I find that to be pure evil.
I think we will be judged by future generations on the basis of how immigrants—"illegal" as well as legal—are being treated right now. As a nation, we are failing morally, just as we did with Japanese internment camps, or Bull Connor's dogs attacking civil rights workers, or Ronald Reagan ignoring the AIDS crisis. And just as we look back with contempt on those past moral failings, so too our children will look back on "forced separation" and wonder what the hell we were thinking. We will deserve their harshest condemnation.

LESLIE LIGHTCRAFT CO. SUCCESSFULLY TESTS PROTOTYPE
Leslie Lightcraft Co.
Contact: +1-281-309-4822

Stand Up Catamaran Configuration One Step Closer to Patent.
Dateline: Friendswood, Texas (Near NASA's Johnson Space Center Houston) March 2, 2018 — The Leslie Lightcraft Co. reached a significant milestone today in the successful testing of the "Mark I" prototype. "The calculations have been confirmed!" stated Christopher Leslie, owner and chief designer of the Lightcraft product. "We were unsure if the theoretical approaches on paper would translate well into reality, but we were all surprised by the better than expected results" states Leslie.
The stand-up catamaran prototype has been in development for the past six months in a lab in Friendswood, Texas. The prototype is a life-size hydro-vehicle that takes the unique buoyancy calculations, materials and hydrodynamic shapes of Leslie's design from paper into reality. "The successful tests are a confidence booster" states George Finch, director of Distribution. "We now know this product will work in real-world scenarios as designed on paper", says Finch.
The prototype testing consisted of a series of what were called "Controlled Environment Test", followed by "Variable Control Tests" and finished with "Other-than-Controlled Environmental Test". The hydrocraft was initially tested in a still body where measurements could take place. "Eventually, we moved the tests out of the hydrolab and into a real-world environment" says Leslie speaking on the test site in Martin Dies Texas State Park.
The results from the test proved to the Lightcraft team that indeed a stand-up catamaran can hold more weight than typical paddle boards, can move through the water easier and most important involves a standard deviation increase in stability. The successful tests now pave the way for practical manufacturing discussions and further patent discussions.
Leslie Lightcraft Co. is a Texas-based company founded by a former NASA mission control team member focused on developing a paddle board in a catamaran configuration which allows for higher stability, more carrying capacity and ease of use.

Brooke Burke Nude In Artistic Black-And-White Instagram Snap

Model Brooke Burke has posed in skimpy swimwear more times than she can likely count, and she's not about to start covering up just because she's approaching 50 years of age. The brunette bombshell is still proud to flaunt the body she works so hard on. After all, given that she has her own fitness app, Brooke Burke Body, which she links to in her Instagram bio, it only makes sense that she'd want to showcase her physique.
In a recent Instagram snap, Burke shared a whole lot more than many fans expected by posting a photo in which she was completely nude. Burke posed perched on a rock in Malibu, in an artistic black-and-white shot taken by photographer Brian Bowen Smith. The shot wasn't exactly styled as a sexy photoshoot, despite Burke's lack of clothing. Her body was slightly contorted in a unique pose, and her face had a playful expression of joy rather than a seductive look.
In the snap, her hair appeared slightly damp with beachy waves, and the water pounded on the rocks behind her. Burke had one knee up in the pose, blocking part of her upper body, and the other NSFW details were covered up with a cartoon star for Instagram.
WILD & FREE | ???? @brianbowensmith ????. Malibu ART
A post shared by Brooke Burke (@brookeburke) on Aug 20, 2019 at 1:34pm PDT
Burke's followers absolutely loved the sizzling-hot shot, and the snap received over 11,000 likes, including a like from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Lisa Rinna.
Her followers shared their thoughts in the comments section, and couldn't seem to believe how incredible Burke looks, year after year. The brunette bombshell doesn't appear to age, and her physique just continues to stun fans.
"Head to toe vision of loveliness," one follower commented.
"One of the hottest mom ever in the entire planet," another said.
"I vote re-post without the star," one particularly saucy follower commented, wanting to get the full, uncensored look at the photo.
Another fan seemed to want even more sexy snaps of Burke, preferably one for every month of the year.
"Would you ever do a calendar again? These photos are amazing."
Yet another fan confessed that he has had a crush on Burke for many years, since her earlier days on television.
"You've been my crush since Wild on E!"
Brian Bowen Smith, the photographer responsible for the sizzling shot, is a bit of a celebrity in his own right. He has 121,000 followers on Instagram who are eager to get a glimpse of his latest snaps, and he recently reposted the steamy shot of Burke with the caption, "looks like summer is not over."


I have a problem. I went to the Casino tonight cause my friend wanted me to go play for her. It was storming so I wasn't gonna go but then I told myself "Maybe this could be the time I win something." so I went. I got $10 and of course, didn't win anything. I felt like I went all the way there for nothing so I decided to play $10 of my own money. I was leaving but decided to try my luck again on another machine so I put $20 more and.. nada! Arg! I used to go there, play the free money and leave. Now I just want to keep playing. Blah!
So yea, work wasn't too bad today beside the fact that it started storming so I took my last client home a bit early cause I didn't like being on the roads with him as I wouldn't want to get into an accident with a client. The weather is just crazy. One min it was raining, the next snowing, the next storming. In the lapse of 20 mins the temp went from 9 to 1. I just don't like this weather cause the windows are always getting foggy and you can't see a damn thing unless you put the heat full blast but then it's too hot in the car.
Hub is once again a big baby. One of his pair of Jeans ripped the other day so of course he asked me to go buy him new ones. Isn't he old enough to go buy himself some damn pants?! That man can't do a darn thing. I honestly don't know what he would do without me. So me being me, I went out and bought him three pairs. He's so spoiled! He called me on his break and said he had good news. He worked it out so he can get Mon-Tue-Wed off. Woohoo! I rather have him have Mon than Thu off. He also said he would go to work on his third day off to make some extra hours. I sure hope he does it cause we need to work on our savings as it went down a bit with the car and everything.
I didn't think I would of been doing anything tonight but I did the laundry, watched some shows, played on my farming game, did the dishes and took a nice relaxing bath. Now I'll be watching one last show before going to bed. I plan on putting the laundry away before but as most of the time, who knows if I'll really do it. As far as reading before bed, I'll have to settle with reading on my phone or tablet as I don't have any books. I took the ones I had finished to the library today but didn't take the time to get some more. I think this is the first time I am without books and I'll have to wait till Mon to go get some more. Oh well..

Skin is one of the most important organs in our body for many reasons. It is the largest and most widely spread organ in our body and we need our skin to keep our internal organs secure. Hence, it is important that we take good care of our skin regardless of whether it is facial or skin in other parts of our body. Our skin types vary from one person to another. If you take around ten random people, some may have dry skin or oily skin while the others may have normal skin. Therefore, choosing skin related products should be done with extra consideration. There are various types of products that you can use on the skin. Hence, it is important that you make sure to be extra careful while choosing your products. There are a few tips that can help you while buying these products. Hence, make sure to consider them while making any future purchases.
Make sure to know about your actual requirement when you make your purchases. There are products that are made in order to help your skin and there are also products that are applied on it in order to gain different results. For an instance, if you buy an organic slimming product, you will be focused about achieving results and getting a slimmer body. But, it is very important that you know the ingredients of any product that you apply on your skin. This is an essential step that people tend to forget and neglect easily. Sometimes, you may be allergic to various ingredients and the products you use may contain them. Allergies can leave you with irrecoverable injuries and scars. Therefore, make sure to be very careful with what you use.
When you use products such as skincare facial serum, cleansers and scrubs, make sure that you choose products that are suitable for your skin type. This is very crucial. For an instance, if you have an oily skin and if you use a product that is made for dry skin, you may face unexpected breakouts in your skin or even allergies. Therefore, make sure to choose products that are suitable for your skin type. Furthermore, choose products that are manufactured by companies that are trustworthy. Sometimes, people choose cheap products because they are low in budget. But, it is important to choose products that are good in quality.
The above should be considered while choosing products for your skin. Additionally, you can also consult a professional and get advices if you have any queries.

Home/Elk Network/Conservation/New Mexico Elk Migration Corridor Protected, Opened to Access
Elk NetworkNew Mexico Elk Migration Corridor Protected, Opened to Access
Conservation , News Releases | January 11, 2021
MISSOULA, Mont. — Nearly 1,200 acres of vital elk winter range in northern New Mexico is now permanently protected and opened to public access. The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation worked with the Bureau of Land Management and three families to make it happen.
"This is a crucial swath of land and a key migration corridor for approximately 10,000 elk that move back and forth between New Mexico and Colorado," said Kyle Weaver, RMEF president and CEO. "We recognize and greatly appreciate the Ortega, Santistevan and Thorne families for working with us to conserve this important landscape."
The combined 1,188 acres from the four separate parcels were all in-holdings within the Rio Grande del Norte National Monument in the San Luis Valley, known as Mi Tierra Encantada (My Enchanted Lands). Locals refer to the area as the Taos Plateau that also falls within the Upper Rio Grande watershed.
RMEF conveyed the lands to the BLM that now manages it.
"The acquisition of these parcels will enhance the BLM's ability to protect fragile cultural, biological and scenic resources within the Rio Grande del Norte National Monument," said Steve Wells, acting BLM New Mexico state director. "We are thrilled that through this effort and partnership with the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, the BLM is able to increase access to public lands for traditional and recreational activities such as fuelwood gathering, hunting, grazing and camping."
The New Mexico Department of Game and Fish's 2020 State Action Plan highlighted the Taos Plateau as one of four critical areas statewide to conserve key big game migrations. In addition to elk, it is also home to mule deer, pronghorn antelope, black bear, mountain lion and a myriad of smaller mammal and bird species.
The cultural significance of the area dates back 14,000 years, representing early Native American and Hispanic cultures.
BLM utilized funding from the Land and Water Conservation Fund to complete the project.

Cold gas outflows and lifecycle of radio galaxies *** Seminar cancelled ***
Raffaella Morganti (ASTRON)
Venue to be confirmed.
The energy released by an active galactic nucleus (AGN) has a strong impact on the surrounding interstellar medium (ISM). The important role for galaxy evolution of these energetic feedback effects has been supported, in recent years, by the discovery of massive gas outflows in a growing number of galaxies with AGN . Even more interesting has been the realisation that the dominant component of these AGN -driven outflows appears to be associated with cold (atomic and/or molecular) gas. I will present recent results obtained from HI and CO observations of a number of objects where the radio jet is playing a major role in producing large and fast gas outflows. The results are reinforcing the conclusion that gas outflows have a complex and multiphase structure and that cold gas in different phases (atomic and molecular) represents a major component. High-spatial resolution observations have allowed, in a number of sources, to locate the region where the outflow originates as well as to derive more accurate estimates of the mass outflow rate and the associated energy. Therefore, these results provide important constraints for understanding the mechanisms that lie at the origin out the outflows. A possible link between the evolutionary stage of the radio source and the presence of cold gas and outflows will also be discussed. This is explored using observations at low frequency (LOFAR), to trace past phases of activity combined with HI observations. The latter are part of a campaign of preparatory work for Apertif, the phased array feeds system upgrade of the Westerbork radio telescope. I will give an update on the results obtained so far.

Casa Wynwood, a New Mentorship + Education Concept Creatives and Coworkers Debuts In Miami's Wynwood Arts District
by casawynwood | Aug 14, 2017 | News | 0 comments
New V.I.P members-only mentoring club for creatives debuts in Miami's world-renowned Wynwood Arts District
Miami, FL – Casa Wynwood, a new shopping concept for luxury buyers of art and home furnishings, is opening its doors to members and partners this coming November in the Seminole building located in the Wynwood Arts District of Miami.
"Casa Wynwood is not a retail store nor is it intended to be a design center," states Christi Tasker, co-owner of Casa Wynwood. "Rather, it is a living exhibition where a constantly transitioning duo of landscape architects and renowned interior designers will exhibit to give creatives the best opportunity for mentorship and education among the world's best home furnishings and building materials in real lifestyle applications. The Casa will also provide our vendor-partners an opportunity to grow their brands through hosted events during high profile Miami Art District and Miami Design District events during the year. Manufacturer representatives will also be able to meet with their clients to show products suitable for the luxury consumer beyond traditional means."
Casa Wynwood presents a well-edited and curated selection of unique original art, one-of-a-kind high-end furniture, home décor, appliances and accessories from around the world -all featured together in a cohesive 2,500 square-foot interior lifestyle setting, including a 2,700 square-foot outdoor garden, a 1,600 square-foot gallery and a 500 square-foot live art demonstration area. The art demonstration is the only space that can be seen from the street level and remains behind a secure gate. All other spaces require a duplicate point of security for members-only access.
The Casa will provide a unique VIP experience for key hospitality purchasers, high-end retail buyers, upscale interior designers with their A-list celebrity clients, and provide a space in Wynwood for high-end luxury brands to host events. The Casa will also provide insight for home and lifestyle publication editors regarding upcoming design and style trends within the luxury market. The Casa curators are currently exploring partnerships with the same vested interest in showcasing new products or one-of-a-kind products first as well as educating designers and architects through CEU (Continuing Education) events.
Miami's Wynwood Arts District was selected for the first Casa location because "it is one of the most dynamic and leading art districts in the world and renowned for its modernism and style. It is home to hundreds of internationally known artists and draws celebrities, art collectors, and other upscale visitors from around the world during events like Art Basel and Art Wynwood events, among others. International pop artist Romero Britto's studio is next door to Casa Wynwood and major luxury brands are calling to host events in the CASA," said Tasker.
Casa Wynwood has already partnered with several renowned interior designers including designer-to-the-stars Erinn Valencich, aka. Erinn V., and the Property Brother's Brother vs. Brother winner, landscape architect David Font. These designers will architect, design and curate the stylized settings which will be changed quarterly.
Casa Wynwood features will not focus solely on furniture and home decor but will also provide a showcase for the latest in unique appliances, textiles, technology solutions, building materials, landscape design, one-of-a-kind items and beta products sold only in luxury markets. It will also provide select manufacturers an appropriate environment to beta test new product concepts and discover new sales opportunities.
The Casa will host exclusive events several times during the year to introduce new designs. Designers and vendors will exhibit at these events with clientele and provide artists, designers, buyers, manufacturers and new clients an opportunity to network. "The Casa will also be available for other luxury market brands to host CEU and educational events and mentorship talks called Wynwood Talks during Art Basel and other art festivals in Wynwood to give our partners maximum exposure," says Tasker.
Casa Wynwood is located at 150 SE 25th Road #4D Miami, FL 33129. The Casa will only be available by appointment with a 24-hour notice through the participating vendors and their reps. Membership requests for celebrities and guests will be available in the next 30 days at CasaWynwood.com Manufacturer participants and vendors for the first period, which ranges from October through December, will be chosen during the last week of May. Artists will be chosen and announced by the end of June. Vendors, manufacturers, publications, artists, and brands interested in being included in or hosting private events in the Casa Wynwood are invited to contact Christi Tasker at christi@taskeragency.com.

Summer Fun for All
Both Luxe Hotels in Los Angeles offer two completely different experiences. The Luxe Rodeo Drive Hotel is the only hotel on Rodeo Drive, with easy access to dozens of designer stores, while the Luxe Sunset Boulevard Hotel has some of the best pool facilities on LA's Westside.
Now, the two are teaming up to bring Rodeo Drive to the pool. All guests at the Rodeo Drive hotel will have access to the pool at Luxe Sunset Boulevard with any booking.
The outdoor heated pool at Luxe Sunset Boulevard Hotel has views of the Getty Center and has increased its amenities in light of the new partnership. They now have inflatable pool toys, billiards, table tennis, and poolside food and beverage service.
"As we head into the summer months, Luxe Hotels recognized the need for pool facilities and warm weather amenities for each of its guests," says Adam Sydenham, regional general manager of Luxe Hotels. "While no two Luxe Hotels properties are alike, this partnership ensures that every guest experience both this summer and beyond is a memorable one."
With a beachside locale and a laidback, surf-town vibe, Ventura County Coast is awash with inspiration for your next meeting and event. The region is home to four communities— Camarillo, Oxnard, Ventura, and Port Hueneme—and is ideal for groups from 10 to 1,000.
The Academy Museum Opens
After many delays and budget overruns, the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures has finally opened. It's a blockbuster, with enough dazzle, beauty and innovation to, arguably, justify its $484 million cost. And, in good news for meeting planners, the event space here is gorgeous!
