Dissolving Margins
Opening Date: Fri 19 Oct, 6:30pm – 8:30pm
Exhibition Period: Sat 20 Oct 18 – Tue 22 Jan 19
Opening Hours: 12:00pm – 7:00pm, Tue to Sun, closed on Mon and public holidays
LASALLE, 1 McNally Street
Artists: Eng Kai Er, Camille Henrot, James T Hong, Tara Kelton, Darius Ou
Curated by Melanie Pocock
Dissolving margins is inspired by scenes from Elena Ferrante's bestselling novel My brilliant friend (2011). One of the novel's protagonists, Raffaella 'Lila' Cerullo, experiences multiple episodes of 'dissolving margins': psychosomatic events in which her mind and body fuse with her surroundings. In these moments of flux, Lila questions the moral integrity of her family and friends, whose violent character she sees as if for the first time.
In the exhibition, striking, large-scale installations, experimental performance and prints by five international and Singaporean artists bridge physical and virtual worlds, immersing the viewer in experiences of dissolving margins.
Office of unreplied emails (2016–17) by Camille Henrot, exhibited first at the Berlin Biennale in 2016 and the following year at the Palais de Tokyo, presents oversized prints of hundreds of spam emails received by Henrot along with her proposed responses. Draped over wooden poles and strewn across the floor of the gallery, the numerous texts create an intriguing spectacle of emphatic requests and replies.
Tara Kelton's Still life with a curtain (2015) takes as its starting point an image of Paul Cezanne's masterpiece of the same name. Descriptions of Cezanne's painting produced by online workers appear alongside visual simulations of the workers' texts created by 3D visualisation studios in Bengaluru, India's 'silicon plateau'.
Award-winning Singaporean graphic designer Darius Ou's project Autotypography (2012–13) features 365 posters designed daily over the course of a year. Ou's posters—displayed in their entirety for the first time—transform four gallery walls into an enormous clashing wallpaper of colours, texts, images and digital animations.
In the darkest area of the gallery, visitors encounter filmmaker James T Hong's video installation, Nietzsche reincarnated as a Chinese woman and their shared lives (2016–18). Envisaged as a four-channel 'chamber', Hong's work encloses viewers in an epic clash between Eastern and Western social morals, where scenes of multiplying cells, writhing insects and butchered animals embody contemporary herd mentalities.
A new work by Singaporean dancer and choreographer Eng Kai Er has been developed for the exhibition. In her performance, Compressible sentiments (2018), Eng takes the inflatable Jurassic World T-Rex costume—a famous Internet meme—and turns its virtual identity into a projection of human anxieties.
Dissolving margins is the third group exhibition curated by Melanie Pocock at the ICA Singapore exploring paradoxical aesthetics and their sociopolitical implications. Pocock's previous exhibitions include Native revisions (2017) and Countershadows (tactics in evasion) (2014).

Japan Runs Wild, 1942–1943
Peter Harmsen
This book details the astonishing transformation that took place from 1942 to 1943, setting the Allies on a path to final victory against Japan.
War in the Far East
1 plate section
• A comprehensive view of World War Two in the Asia Pacific
• The central importance of China is highlighted in a way that no previous general history of the war against Japan has achieved
In early 1942, the Japanese Army and Navy were advancing on all fronts, humiliating their US, British and Dutch foes throughout the Asia Pacific. In a matter of just months, the soldiers and sailors of the Rising Sun conquered an area even bigger than Hitler's empire at its largest extent. They seemed invincible. Hawaiians and Australians were fearing a future under Hirohito. For half of mankind, fate was hanging in the balance.
Fast forward to the end of 1943, and the tables had been turned entirely. A reinvigorated American-led military machine had kicked into gear, and the Japanese were fighting a defensive battle along a frontline that crossed thousands of miles of land and ocean. Japan Runs Wild, 1942-1943 by acclaimed author Peter Harmsen details the astonishing transformation that took place in that period, setting the Allies on a path to final victory against Japan.
This second installment in the trilogy, War in the Far East, picks up the story where first volume Storm Clouds over the Pacific, 1931-1941 left off. The trilogy will give a comprehensive view of World War II in the Asia Pacific, with due emphasis on the central Japanese-American struggle, but also examining the role of the other nations engulfed in the vast showdown: British, Australians, Soviets, Filipinos, Indians and Koreans. Above all, the central importance of China is highlighted in a way that no previous general history of the war against Japan has achieved.

If you're not inspired by a Double Dee and Steinski megamix, then I'm not sure why you come to this blog. On a side note: Thank you all for the kind, complimentary, and supportive words with my latest mix. As a token of appreciation, I'll be posting a new mix next week. One of the few positives with my new "situation" is that I have a lot more time to work on mixes. So much so, I've got 4 mixes locked in the chamber waiting to be released.


4. What are three concepts related to core beliefs?
5. What are three characteristics of stress related to pain?
6. What are three concepts related to redefining self-worth in chronic pain clients?
B. negative life events; self-identification; and culturally influenced core beliefs.
C. poor self-image; grieving; and building the new identity.
D. biological; social; and personality.
E. threat; loss; and challenge.
F. poor self-image; grieving; and building the new identity.
G. spontaneous stress and chronic stress; stress as an automatic thought trigger; and physical manifestations of stress.
7. According to Kurtais, what are the three components of cognitive-behavioral treatment?
8. What does a clinician need to effectively utilize during group therapy in order to enhance treatment effectiveness and patient satisfaction in cognitive-behavioral treatment for chronic pain?
9. What style of trained questioning used in cognitive interventions gently probes for patient meanings and stimulates alternative viewpoints or ideas?
10. According to Buenaver et al., what is the rationale behind self-help cognitive-behavioral therapy?
11. Under what two concepts is psychosocial pain research carried out?
12. What mechanisms of pain can lead to a re-activation of childhood feelings of helplessness which, in turn, leads to severe psychosocial crisis?
A. The effective utilization of the group process can enhance treatment effectiveness and patient satisfaction in cognitive-behavioral treatments for chronic pain.
B. 1) An educational phase; to help patients to understand the effects of thoughts, beliefs, expectations and behaviors on their symptoms (biopsychosocial model). 2) A skills training phase; patients are emphasized on cognitive and behavioral strategies for coping pain. 3) An application phase; patients learn to apply cognitive and behavioral skills to real life situations. In this phase relapse prevention is aimed.
C. Self-help is typically more cost efficient and can be made available to a greater number of patients than traditional individual therapy.
E. "Socratic dialogue" or "guided recovery"


An 11 year old girl was sitting with lap belt only in the back seat of a minivan involved in a motor vehicle accident where her car was rear-ended. She has a "seat belt sign," or ecchymosis over her lower abdomen. Her CT abdomen with contrast is normal, but she continues to have tenderness to palpation. However, she states she is hungry.
What is the best management?
B) Admit for serial exams. Seatbelt ecchymoses are associated with visceral and hollow viscus injuries, and the CT may be normal in a patient with a bowel perforation. Signs of peritonitis can develop over time, and patients with ongoing abdominal tenderness should be observed with serial exams. The hyperflexion injury associated with lapbelt-only sitting and seatbelt ecchymoses may result in Chance fracture, a horizontal spinous fracture through the vertebral body, but this would cause back pain.


I cannot stress enough how awesome of a time it is to start a blog. For starters, there are so many reasons you should have a blog: It's a creative outlet, you'll make friends, it serves as a resume (especially for freelancers!), you'll make money from it, and there are so many resources available to help you succeed. So long are the days of Googling for hours trying to figure things out. Now, you can simply invest in an eBook or course, learn from the pros, and start seeing success much sooner.
I've been really into taking blogging courses lately. As a business owner (my blog), I've realized it's important to reinvest in my business. How can I grow if I'm never taking risks or learning new things?
Here are a few courses that I strongly recommend to bloggers, both new and advanced!
This is actually my book, ha! After you purchase your blog through Bluehost and install WordPress (here's my tutorial), there is so much to figure out. I remember feeling like I was looking at a foreign language. The Beginner's Guide to Blogging was created to walk you through what to do after you purchase your blog! It's a quick read and will save you hours and hours and hours of trying to figure all of this out on your own (like I did!).
New bloggers: I cannot recommend this course enough!! I took it as a seasoned blogger and STILL learned a TON of information. You can purchase the Blog by Number course and eBook for $47 or just the eBook for $17.99. The book's author, Suzi Whitford, took her blog income from $0 to $17,000+ in a year and a half!! She's incredible. And, she's a busy mom, meaning her course is quick and actionable. You can apply everything learned in the course to your own blog right away.
Abby Lawson of Just a Girl and Her Blog is the creator of Building a Framework eBook ($27) and course ($97). It's similar to Blog by Number, except Abby is an organizational pro! She includes workbooks to keep you on track with both her book and her course. With the course, you also get access to a members-only Facebook group (these are super helpful!!), videos, tech trainings, tutorials on how to make printables, and more! I purchased the eBook about three months after I started my blog. It definitely helped me to go from a "hobby blogger" mindset to a "business blogger" mentality.
This is the priciest course I've ever taken, but it is worth every dollar. If you are serious about turning your blog into a full-time income, Making Sense of Affiliate Marketing is a MUST for you. Michelle Schroeder-Gardner, the course's author, makes $50,000 a month from affiliate sales! And the beauty is any blogger in any niche can learn to make big money blogging as an affiliate. Her tips are practical, timely and valuable.
And, when you purchase her course, you'll also receive access to her Facebook group. I've LOVED being a part of this fun group these past few weeks. We share each other's posts, answer each other's questions, and Michelle is in there all the time posting helpful tips and answering questions herself.
I took this course about two years into blogging and my only regret is not taking it sooner. Pinterest Presence teaches you everything you need to know about growing your traffic with Pinterest! It's updated regularly, too, and you'll have access to updates when you buy the course.
Since taking Pinterest Presence, my pageviews have more than doubled. Most of my traffic now comes from Pinterest. If you're struggling with either getting traffic to your blog or with understanding Pinterest, Pinterest Presence is for you!
If you don't want to buy the course, check out these image templates. They are proven to get clicks and customers over to your website!
Have you taken any courses lately?! I'd love to hear some recommendations!!
It's nice to see that I've taken a couple of these courses. I totally agree it's important to reinvest and keep learning things to grow our blogs.
A lot of new bloggers spend so much time trying to find information for free online. While there's nothing wrong with trying to find free information. However, I'd rather spend money on a course that will help me cut my learning curve in half.
As long as you implement what you learn in the course, there's nothing wrong with investing in your business. After all, we hear it all the time how important it is to treat our blogs like a business.
Thanks for sharing these courses with us, I have no doubt that they will help bloggers turn their blog into a success.

'Incredible challenges internally': Nuu-chah-nulth leaders stand behind Wilson-Raybould

Wickanninish, Cliff Atleo, speaks as Nuu-chah-nulth leaders stand in solidarity for MP Jody Wilson-Raybould in a broadcasted video message on Wednesday. Wilson-Raybould has accused the Prime Minister's Office of pressuring her to avoid the criminal prosecution of an enginieering firm while she served as Canada's attorney general. (Eric Plummer photo)
Campbell River, BC —
As the prime minister considers whether Canada's former attorney general should remain in the Liberal caucus, Nuu-chah-nulth Ha'wiih are standing behind Jody Wilson-Raybould in her challenging testimony against the federal government.
A message of support was made by Nuu-chah-nulth leaders today at the close of the two-day Council of Ha'wiih Forum on Fisheries in Campbell River, which was held in the traditional territory of Wilson-Raybould's We Wai Kai Nation.
Speaking on behalf of the nations' leaders – first in Nuu-chah-nulth, then English - Wickanninish, Cliff Atleo, of Ahousaht noted that the Ha'wiih are proud of Wilson-Raybould's term as a Member of Parliament, using her Kwakwaka'wakw name Puglas, which means woman born to noble people.
"You are about to face incredible challenges internally," said Wickanninsh. "We are dismayed by the reaction of the leader of this government to your truth."
As the first day of the fisheries forum proceeded on Vancouver Island Wednesday, Wilson-Raybould gave a revealing testimony against the Liberals in Ottawa. While sitting before the House of Commons justice committee, The Vancouver Granville MP accused the government of exposing her to four months of political interference into her role as attorney general, including "veiled threats" from the Prime Minister's Office to avoid the criminal prosecution of Quebec-based engineering firm SNC Lavalin. During a cabinet shuffle Wilson-Raybould was moved from attorney general to the minister of Veterans Affairs in January. After news broke of the alleged political interference she resigned from this post on Feb. 12.
The former attorney general has accused the PMO of pressuring her to seek a deferred prosecution agreement with the federal government to avoid SNC's prosecution. This would entail an admittance of wrongdoing from SNC, with a considerable financial payment to the federal government.
If convicted of bribery, SNC faced a 10-year ban on bidding for government contracts. The Quebec-based engineering firm is one of the largest in Canada, and warned that such a penalty would require it to relocate to another country, bringing thousands of jobs with it. SNC's headquarters are in Montreal, near Trudeau's federal Papineau riding.
SNC Lavalin's bribery charges include nearly $48 million in payouts to Libyan government officials from 2001-11. Elections Canada has also determined that the company illegally donated almost $118,000 to federal parties from 2004 to 2011, mostly to the Liberal Party of Canada.


There's a saying that you don't count your chickens before they hatch, because, believe it or not, they might not hatch at all! So much for coming home, eh England? The Three Lions started the game against Croatia with a bang, as Kieran Trippier curled it in from a spot kick. Croatia leveled at the 68th minute with Perisic slamming it past Pickford. At the 109th minute, Croatia's Mandzukic gave his team the lead with a nice tap to the corner of the nets. That was it for England.
Despite their loss, British fans were still in the mood to look at the funny side of things. After all, this was perhaps England's best performance since 1990. To get this close and be forced to come home can be called a missed opportunity, even if critics say that the team had it easy at the group stages.
WATCH: Croatia's firefighters were eager to witness their win against England, but DUTY called!
As the game moved to its closing moments, many fans were in tears, a stark difference from the jubilant faces that threw beer in the air when they had the lead.
While many were heartbroken, the country was proud of their team for coming this far into the tournament.
Meanwhile, Croatia will be facing France on July 15 at the finals while England will take on Belgium on July 14, for the runner ups.

D. Fernando Arêas Rifan (São Fidélis, 25 de outubro de 1950) é um bispo católico brasileiro, atual ordinário da Administração Apostólica Pessoal São João Maria Vianney e bispo-titular de Cedamusa. Por alguns anos antes de 2001 ele foi aliado da União Sacerdotal quando ela desafiou a Santa Sé usando rotineiramente formas litúrgicas não autorizadas e associada à Fraternidade Sacerdotal São Pio X. Ele ajudou a negociar a reconciliação da União Sacerdotal com a Santa Sé em 2001.

Formação
Cursou Filosofia e Teologia em Campos dos Goytacazes e foi ordenado sacerdote em 8 de dezembro de 1974. Na Diocese de Campos, foi secretário particular do bispo António de Castro Mayer, Diretor Diocesano do Ensino Religioso, professor de Filosofia e Teologia no Seminário e Pároco da Paróquia de Nossa Senhora do Rosário. Seguiu a Dom Antônio no catolicismo tradicionalista, tornando-se conhecido como seu defensor, e parte da União Sacerdotal São João Maria Vianney, fundada por Dom Mayer depois de sua saída da Diocese de Campos, em 28 de agosto de 1981.
Fundou o Centro Catequético-Social Nossa Senhora do Rosário de Fátima; o Dispensário São Vicente de São Paulo, para distribuição de roupas e mantimentos a famílias pobres, especialmente na zona rural; o Centro Educacional 13 de Maio, para promover a educação, desenvolver a cultura e promover atividades beneficentes; e o Colégio Três Pastorinhos.

Em 1991, Dom Castro Mayer foi sucedido por D. Licínio Rangel na direção da União Sacerdotal São João Maria Vianney, e Padre Rifan continuou como uma de suas principais lideranças. A retomada dos contatos da União Sacerdotal São João Maria Vianney com a Santa Sé, em 2000, e os acordos entre as duas partes, resulta na criação, a 18 de janeiro de 2002, da Administração Apostólica Pessoal São João Maria Vianney. Dom Licínio, devido a problemas de saúde, pede ao Papa João Paulo II que nomeie um bispo-auxiliar, que lhe sucederia como Administrador Apostólico. O padre Rifan, agora Vigário-Geral da Administração Apostólica recém criada, foi nomeado bispo-titular de Cedamusa e coadjutor do Administrador Apostólico Licínio Rangel.

A ordenação episcopal de Dom Rifan foi a 18 de agosto de 2002, em Campos dos Goytacazes, tendo o Cardeal Castrillón Hoyos, Prefeito da Congregação para o Clero, como consagrante principal, assistido por Dom Licínio e por Dom Alano Maria Pena, Arcebispo de Niterói.

Administrador Apostólico
D. Licínio Rangel morreu a 16 de dezembro de 2002 e D. Fernando sucedeu-lhe automaticamente como Administrador Apostólico.

Em sua primeira carta pastoral, Rifan enfatizou a importância do mandato papal que lhe foi dado. Ele também alertou contra a heresia e elogiou a liturgia latina tradicional e a disciplina litúrgica como uma defesa contra ela. Ele aconselhou os membros da Administração Apostólica contra o cisma, demonstrado por "um gosto geral pela crítica sistemática das autoridades da Igreja, um espírito de resistência, desobediência, desrespeito, suspeita, calúnia, independência da Hierarquia e Magistério da Igreja, contentamento com a anormalidade do situação, falta de caridade, um sentimento de possuir toda a verdade, uma atitude sectária que nos fez ser as únicas pessoas boas".

Em uma carta pastoral sobre a eleição do Papa Bento XVI, Rifan declarou sua lealdade e citou o Papa Pio XII: aderindo lealmente ao Seu Vigário na terra."

Ele também afirmou que uma "situação de separação dos católicos tradicionais da hierarquia, provocada pelas crises na Igreja, além de anormal, deve ser temporária e momentânea; deve inspirar em nós uma ânsia de regularização e união em vez de do que uma complacência com a nossa situação."

Em uma entrevista de maio de 2003 com La Nef, Dom Rifan falou das relações da Administração Apostólica com a Fraternidade São Pio X (FSSPX) da seguinte forma: Tentamos ser o mais amigável possível com a FSSPX e seus superiores, mas depois de informá-los de que tínhamos sérias razões para continuando nossos contatos com Roma, que não pretendiam manter, começaram a nos criticar severamente, tentando também nos desonrar, colocando em dúvida nossas intenções e tentando criar divisões entre nossos fiéis. Após nosso reconhecimento pela Santa Sé, a liderança da FSSPX removeu nosso nome das listas de missas tradicionais e começou a promover missas nas áreas onde celebramos. Isso significa que a Missa tradicional só é boa quando é cortada da Hierarquia? Mas, graças a Deus, nossos fiéis distinguem entre o amor pela Missa tradicional e a má atitude que faz da Missa tradicional uma bandeira para agitar contra a Hierarquia.

A FSSPX e outros grupos tradicionalistas censuraram o Bispo Rifan por concelebrar a Missa de acordo com o rito revisado em 28 de maio de 2011 e outras ocasiões. Ressaltaram sua participação nas concelebrações, uma inovação do Concílio Vaticano II.

Em 2013, Rifan revisou e aprovou a publicação de uma versão guiada do catecismo de João Paulo II.

State senators Phil Boyle and Thomas D. Croci and State Assemblyman Andrew R. Garbarino paid a visit to the high school on June 19 to meet with the varsity boys bowling team. Their Legislative Resolutions proclamation, adopted in the Assembly on April 27 and the Senate on May 5, honored the team and coach Bob Cheadle for winning the New York State championship this past winter. Commemorating the achievement, each team member received a certificate from the legislators, who lauded their athletic skills and determination.


Macquarie Centre was unveiled, the making it the largest shopping centre in NSW, at 138, 500 square metres. Research is attributing the development as a result of international retailers.
Offshore retailers are demanding larger than usual store formats and prime positioning has driven regional shopping centre development in Australia.
"We've seen landlords increasingly look at how they can expand and redevelop their centres to accommodate this market segment. It's created an extremely competitive environment in which discount department stores are needing to refresh and reinvent themselves to combat offshore fast fashion retailers who are taking an increased market share," said CBRE's Head of Research, Stephen McNabb.
"Macquarie is the first suburban centre in the country to have virtually all of the big international fast fashion brands, including H&M, Zara, Uniqlo, Forever 21 and GAP," Alistair Palmer, National Director of Retail Services said.
CBRE's latest Retail MarketView report highlights that roughly 1 million square metres of regional shopping centre space will be completed in the next three years, as overseas retailers increase their interest in the Australian market.
Significant expansion plans for regional shopping centres such as Macquarie Centre in Sydney (35,000 square metres), Westfield North Lakes in Brisbane (29,800 square metres), Pacific Fair on the Gold Coast (49,000ssquare metres) and Chadstone Shopping Centre in Melbourne (19,600square metres) have been at the forefront of the development.
These international brands have to date largely targeted prime shopping strips, helping to boost national super prime net face rents up by 3.6per cent in the first three quarters of 2014 according to CBRE's MarketView.


In 2018 Fiveways celebrated five years of supporting clients to evaluate their services, increase their impact, strengthen their governance and manage risk. It has been our busiest and most inspiring year so far. Here are some of our highlights.
This year we welcomed our 30th new client. We worked with a wide range of organisations including well-known charities like The Children's Society and CLIC Sargent, those working locally such as Creative Youth Network and London Parks and Gardens Trust, those changing their identities to increase their impact (Versus Arthritis and Contact), and charities like Tamba and Beat who may be less well-known but are leaders in their field.
We conducted over 80 in-depth interviews with people who have used our clients' services. It is a great joy to hear first-hand the real difference our clients are making.
"It has changed my life completely. I never thought I would see my 21st birthday. I seriously would have been an alcoholic, druggie or dead. It's the best service I've ever engaged in" – a homeless young person on Depaul's "Your Chance" project.
It was incredibly motivating to hear our evaluation of the National Bereavement Care Pathway for those who have experienced pregnancy or baby loss being used by MPs to call for action to improve care.
"If Members leave this debate with one thing in their minds, let it be the testimony of a grieving parent who experienced the pathway: 'I was shocked at the level of care. I thought 'this is the NHS, why are they making such an effort for me?' I didn't know care like this existed and I was blown away by it—my expectations were exceeded in every way'". – Will Quince MP, referring to our evaluation in a parliamentary debate.
Making governance useful (and even interesting) to senior leaders always puts a smile on our face! This year we facilitated three sessions to support trustees to improve their governance and ways of working, advised two organisations on their charitable status, and helped one charity minimise risk across their services.
Our ultimate reward is a happy client. This year we received positive feedback from all our clients and, as testimony to their satisfaction, several recommended Fiveways to other organisations who have now become new clients.
We would like to say a big "thank you" to all our clients for making 2018 such an exciting year, and we look forward to more of the same in 2019.

Judge grants Huntress deferred sentence in death of Barbara Vigil
By: Priscilla Waggoner - Updated: 7 months ago
SAGUACHE — On a Monday night around 6:30 p.m., just a few days before Thanksgiving in 2019, lifelong Saguache County resident Barbara Vigil was killed when her 2004 Blazer was struck by Boulder resident, Jason Huntress.
According to official records, Huntress, 27 at the time, was driving a 2019 Dodge Ram 1500 pickup on Highway 17 in Moffat with his cruise control set at 101 mph until just seconds before he broadsided Vigil's vehicle as she was turning left on to Moffat Way. Colorado State Patrol Trooper David Kerker, who investigated the crash, determined Huntress impacted Vigil's vehicle going 89 mph, 40 miles over the speed limit.
Vigil died at the scene. Christina Salgado, Huntress' passenger and girlfriend, sustained serious injuries and was taken to a hospital. Huntress came out of the accident unharmed.
A subsequent search of the truck found close to three-fourths of a pound of marijuana, marijuana concentrate, psilocybin mushrooms and a weapon, all which Huntress claimed belonged to Salgado.
In April, Huntress pled guilty to vehicular homicide, a class 4 felony, and careless driving resulting in death. In exchange for the guilty plea, Huntress would receive a four-year deferred sentence, and avoid any jailtime, unless he violates the terms of the court. If he remains out of trouble, the sentence will be expunged from his record.
The plea deal was made with 12th Judicial District Attorney Alonzo Payne's office.
Vigil's family was, admittedly, not optimistic going into last month's sentencing hearing. At the plea hearing in April, Tony Vigil, Barbara's son, asked for Huntress to spend "some time — even 30 days — in jail, just to make sure he realizes what he's done."
But comments made by 12thJudicial District Court Judge Amanda Hopkins, citing precedence in other similar cases, indicated she was likely to grant the deal.
Nonetheless, the sentencing hearing allowed the Vigils to finally say what they had been wanting to say since Vigil was killed and the plea deal was struck.
Mariah Vigil, Barbara's granddaughter, stood up and addressed the court in a letter written by the family.
"Our family keeps asking why," she said. "A few days before Thanksgiving, our mother was trying to finish up her work in Crestone for that week to spend time with the family.
"Like so many times before, she got in her Chevy Blazer and started to drive home. But [because of Jason Huntress]…speeding through the town of Moffat at a rate of 100 mph…she did not make it home.
"That night, our lives completely changed forever. It has been a year and a half, and we are still trying to understand what happened and deal with our grief. The hardest part is the circumstances surrounding our mother's death and how it did not have to happen. We never got the chance to say goodbye, I love you. We could not even see her body again because it was so damaged. The cause of death was 'multiple blunt force injuries.' Each one of us has been affected in a different way and the pain is so real. With each day that goes by, with each birthday and holiday, we just keep going forward. All we can do is miss her, visit her grave at the Hillside Cemetery and struggle with the hurt daily.
"We are asking for a strict sentence that bears responsibility, fairness, and most important justice…for the crime. 'No single drop of water thinks it is responsible for the flood.' It is our hope that [Jason Huntress] can learn from this life-changing event and keep from committing such a crime again. The choices made by [him] that night deserve for him to be held accountable as we, as a family, continue to ask why."
In their letter, the family also expressed disappointment with the DA's Office, saying they had not been contacted about the case until the first part of 2021, more than a year after Vigil's death, when they learned that there was discussion with counsel for the defense and an offer was made for a deferred sentence.
DA Payne could not be reached for a response prior to publication.
Huntress also addressed the court. In a somewhat emotional statement that lasted roughly a minute, Huntress said that he was "deeply saddened" by "the loss of Barbara Vigil," adding he "planned to spend time on probation doing good for others."
Huntress said the accident had impacted his life and the counselor he has been seeing made him realize he "must devote time to doing good to relieve the immense guilt that I feel." He then apologized for "taking up everyone's time and being a burden to the Vigil family."
Judge Hopkins addressed the family, saying she had read the family's statements, listened to what they had to say and knows the Vigils were "very upset" with the plea arrangement. She reminded them that there was precedence set for Huntress to receive the sentence he did and, just as it was her responsibility to uphold the Constitution in listening to them, she also had to uphold the Constitution in ensuring that the defendant was treated fairly. She also acknowledged the Vigils were "very upset" with the DA's office and assured them that the DA's office was aware of that, as well.
Hopkins then addressed Huntress and started by saying that, after she reviewed the investigative report of his background, she "very nearly rejected" his plea agreement because she "had never seen such a waste of opportunity and of privilege" as he has displayed in his life, citing his loving family, his going to be the best schools and "having everything [he] needs without having done a thing to get it."
"You have so much more than others, and you've done nothing with all that you've been given," Hopkins said.
She went on to say that Huntress also has a conviction for careless driving, brought down from reckless driving, on his record as well as an unsafe vehicle conviction, pled down from speeding 25-39 mph in a 75-mph speed limit, meaning he was driving faster than 100 mph.
Hopkins said was led to believe he was younger than he was, and this was a "one-off from a normally responsible person" but learned he was someone who drove in whatever he wanted with no regard for the safety or well-being of others.
But, she continued, she had also read the letters submitted on his behalf and hoped he really was the person the letters described him to be.
"Even if you're not, I accepted your plea because I don't want to give you one more reason for doing nothing with your life or not fulfilling your responsibility to society," Hopkins said.
After advising him to follow everything laid out in the court's conditions — and strongly cautioning him that, if he does not, he will return to court where things will not go well for him — she granted the agreement.
When asked how the family was doing, Tammy Vigil said they were "very disappointed."
Nonetheless, after a year and a half of intense sorrow, the family is vowing to move on with life, in honor of their mother who loved life so deeply while she was with them.

Q: How to get PhantomJSDriver to work in selenium? I am trying to use the PhantomJSDriver. The code below works with
FirefoxDriver but will not work with PhantomJSDriver. The error is:

[ERROR - 2016-02-12T16:02:47.717Z] WebElementLocator -
  _handleLocateCommand - Element(s) NOT Found: GAVE UP. Search Stop Time: 1455292967683 org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException: Error
  Message => 'Unable to find element with id 'email''

Is there any clear guides on how to do this in Java, or can anyone get this working to login? I'm struggling to find some clarity on this topic.
I'm assuming the error is something to do  with the browser being headless which therefore messes up with the paths but I have seen others using similar code and it works for them.
WebDriver driver = new PhantomJSDriver();
try {
    System.out.println("Logging in to Facebook...");

    driver.get("https://www.facebook.com/login");
    System.out.println(driver.getTitle());

    driver.findElement(By.id("email")).sendKeys("USERNAME");
    driver.findElement(By.id("pass")).sendKeys("PASS");
    driver.findElement(By.id("loginbutton")).click();
}
catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}

A: There's hundreds of similar questions to this one, e.g. this one. It's an issue that applies more or less equally to all browsers, and is a major cause of test instability.
Basically you're asking the Driver to find id="email" almost immediately (within milliseconds) after the page has been requested, and almost certainly before it has finished loading or that web element has been created in the DOM.
The solution is to wait until the element is ready before trying to send keys to it. See these examples. E.g.
System.out.println(driver.getTitle());

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);  // 10 secs max wait
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated( By.id("email") ));

driver.findElement(By.id("email")).sendKeys("USERNAME");

Once you know the DOM is loaded, there's no need to wait for the other elements.

Cammie King Conlon dies at 76; actress played Bonnie Blue Butler in 'Gone With the Wind'
By Valerie J. Nelson, Los Angeles Times
Cammie King Conlon, who jokingly lamented that she was famous for an experience she barely remembered, portraying Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler's ill-fated young daughter in the film "Gone With the Wind," has died. She was 76.
Conlon, whose brief movie-acting career included voicing the fawn Faline in "Bambi," died Wednesday of cancer at her home in Ft. Bragg, Calif., said Bruce Lewis, a friend.
At 4, she was cast as Bonnie Blue Butler for her resemblance to her film-screen parents — Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable — but her memories of making the epic 1939 Civil War saga were vague, more like "snapshots," she often said.
She had adored the black Shetland pony that she rode and recalled how perplexed she was when she spotted what looked like a little girl, dressed exactly as she was, smoking a cigarette on the set.
The actor was an adult male, a little person who was her stunt double when Bonnie Blue falls from her pony, which causes her death and a pivotal plot point — Rhett's profound depression.
In the death scene that followed, she couldn't keep her eyelids from fluttering and wore a death mask when Gable picked her up. She was so frightened when the mask was being made, her tears left visible imprints on it, Conlon later said.
She also recalled how director Victor Fleming had lectured her to remember her lines.
He said, "Cammie, I have a daughter your age and all these men here have families, too, that depend on them to work here. They need to feed those children. But if you don't say your lines, they can't work," she told the Santa Rosa Press Democrat in 1998.
Conlon — billed as Cammie King in the movie — said she never flubbed another line.
She fondly referred to Gable as a "father figure" who looked out for her.
"If they were doing a lot of takes of a certain scene, he would say, 'Come on, fellows. Let's wrap it up — the baby is tired,' " she told the Orlando Sentinel in 2003.
As an adult, she appeared regularly with other actors from "Gone With the Wind" at retrospectives and events honoring the movie. In a blog promoting her memoir "Bonnie Blue Butler," Conlon said she was one of 10 surviving cast members.
"Whenever she could, she used her fame to raise money for causes," Lewis said. "She did it in a very light way. She wasn't full of herself at all."
She was born Eleanore Cammack King on Aug. 5, 1934, in Los Angeles. Her parents divorced around the time "Gone With the Wind" came out.
Her mother, Eleanore, was a columnist for the Los Angeles Examiner and in the late 1940s married Herbert Kalmus, a scientist who founded the Technicolor Corp.
Conlon graduated from USC with a bachelor's degree in communications in 1956 and went to work as a production assistant on "Climax!" a CBS-TV anthology series.
Her first husband, with whom she had two children, died of cancer. She later remarried but divorced in 1976.
In 1980, Conlon moved to Northern California and had a long public-relations career that included working for the Mendocino Coast Chamber of Commerce.
After "Gone With the Wind," she had one more role, voicing Faline, who frolics with the title character in another classic, the 1942 Disney film "Bambi."
"All I really remember is crawling around on the floor of…a sound booth. And probably that was to get me to giggle, because that's what I mostly do" as the character, Conlon said in 2005 on National Public Radio.
Cast in another film in the early 1940s, Conlon came down with chicken pox the day shooting was to begin.
"That was the end of my show biz career," she told The Times in 1967, but she later said her mother had wanted her to have a "normal" childhood.
Of her part in one of the greatest films of all time, Conlon liked to say: "I peaked at age 5."
She is survived by her two children, Matthew Ned Conlon of Chicago and Katie Conlon Byrne of Hawaii, and three grandchildren.
A service will be held at 10:30 a.m. Sept. 22 at St. Brendan Church, 310 S. Van Ness Ave., Los Angeles.

Begin with sounds that can stretch like /s/ and /f/ before using short, stopping sounds like /p/ and /t/.
It is easier to identify and match initial sounds than final sounds. Middle sounds are most difficult.
Associate sounds with actions, objects or people - sssss says the snake.
Stress that the letters are visual shapes we can see and touch and that they stand for the sounds in words that we can hear.


By 1996, ATLANCO® management became aware of a glaring need in the marketplace for a manufacturer of high quality, affordable military and law enforcement apparel with vision, ambition and panache. The result was the introduction of the TRU-SPEC® brand as well as the construction of the company's first manufacturing facility. The new factory provided the company with the ability to create and produce its own products at competitive prices while responding to market trends and demands in a timely manner. An even larger, state-of-the-art production facility followed in 2004 and currently employs more than one thousand employees.
Today TRU-SPEC® continues to lead the market through innovation and service. The new 24-7 Series® line of apparel is a direct result of listening to the consumer and delivering quality apparel that is versatile, rugged and comfortable while still having all the features to get the job done.

MILFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The current CDC nucleic acid test kits for SARS-CoV-2 generate 30% false-positive and 20% false-negative results in the best state public health laboratory, Dr. Sin Hang Lee reported in a peer-reviewed article published in the International Journal of Geriatrics and Rehabilitation, an online journal based in Japan (http://www.int-soc-clin-geriat.com/info/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/Dr.-Lees-paper-on-testing-for-SARS-CoV-2.pdf), on July 17, 2020.
Sin Hang Lee, MD, director of Milford Molecular Diagnostics Laboratory, the author of the article (http://www.dnalymetest.com/images/IJGeriatRehabLee_on_SARSCoV2_test.pdf), re-tested 20 reference samples provided by the Connecticut State Department of Public Health Microbiology Laboratory Division to arrive at this conclusion, according to the published article. These reference samples were tested by the State Microbiology Laboratory with the CDC test kit and used as the standard reference to guide local laboratories to develop their own tests for SARS-CoV-2 in clinical specimens from suspected COVID-19 patients, according to the published article titled "Testing for SARS-CoV-2 in cellular components by routine nested RT-PCR followed by DNA sequencing."
Dr. Lee is the first scientist developing a protocol to test the cellular components, instead of the cell-free fluid sample of a swab rinse, for SARS-CoV-2 genomic RNA.
"The virus must grow and replicate in a living cell, and one infected cell may contribute thousands of copies of viral genome equivalents to be tested," explained Dr. Lee.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires 95% positive and negative agreement with the reference samples for a laboratory-developed test to be acceptable in a request for SARS-CoV-2 molecular diagnostic test to be performed under the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA). But the FDA also states, "False results can be investigated using an additional EUA RT-PCR assay, and/or Sanger sequencing." This indicates that Sanger sequencing is a de facto gold standard in resolving discordant nucleic acid-based test results, said Dr. Lee.
Using Sanger sequencing as a tool for molecular validation, one of the two false-negative samples supplied by the Connecticut State Laboratory was found to contain a mutant with a novel single nucleotide A insertion in the N gene and a wild-type parental SARS-CoV-2, indicating that a newly developed mutant and its parental virus can co-infect the same host, as illustrated in this N gene sequence published in the article.
One of the nine positive SARS-CoV-2 isolates was found to belong to a recently discovered mutant first isolated from a specimen collected in the State of New York on March 17, 2020, Dr. Lee reports in the article.
"Long-term care facilities with exceptionally high COVID-19 death tolls among their residents and hospitals with active nose-and-throat surgery departments may need to install an extremely sensitive and highly accurate Sanger sequencing-based test for SARS-CoV-2 to protect their residents, patients and staff," said Dr. Lee.
According to Dr. Lee, this manuscript has been peer-reviewed by 5 reviewers and two journal editorial boards before finally accepted for publication under an Open Review process.
Dr. Lee offers to re-test the residues of the respiratory swab samples of the deceased residents of the nursing homes with exceptionally high death tolls for SARS-CoV-2 with his protocol to investigate a possible link between false test results and the high rates of COVID-19 death in these institutions, as widely reported in the news media. Interested parties are encouraged to contact Kevin Moore.

"Steve Jobs is personally responsible for killing the music business."
That's the quote that's been attributed to Jon Bon Jovi overnight in the UK's Sunday Times as he lamented the fact that kids will grow up never enjoying the "experience of putting the headphones on, turning it up to 10, holding the jacket, closing their eyes and getting lost in an album; and the beauty of taking your allowance money and making a decision based on the jacket, not knowing what the record sounded like, and looking at a couple of still pictures and imagining it."
Since then, Jon's infamous dinosaur quote has popped up everywhere and influential music industry writer Bob Lefsetz was quick to pounce:
Bon Jovi On Jobs.
That's Steve Jobs. Responsible for the iMac, the iPod, the iPhone and the iPad.
Not responsible for broadband, Napster, CD burning, hard-drive swapping and the rest of the elements that contributed to the demise of the old recording industry. As a matter of fact, Jobs was last. Macs came without CD burners. And Rio released the first MP3 player. All Steve Jobs did was make the experience easier and more elegant. And provided a way for the rights holders to get paid via the iTunes Store. Yes, before then, music online was FREE! There was nowhere to pay.
But you know all this.
It's only Jon Bongiovi who does not.
That's what happens when you surround yourself with yes-men, you lose contact with reality. You start to believe you're a grand pooh-bah with all the answers when really you're an uneducated nitwit with too much money and fans lost in the same old century you are.
Too bad Bon Jovi is not informed. If he were, he could make a difference. Instead, he's revealed himself to be in bed with Doug Morris and the rest of the music industry antiques who just don't get it.
I'm not saying an act has to know everything. But if it knows nothing, it shouldn't open its mouth.
Bon Jovi is old school. New school acts are Net-savvy. They have to be, that's where their fans are. You reach people online, you cement the relationship with them via Facebook, Twitter, e-mail... It's much more efficient than the old way. You know who your fans are. And they'll give you all their money if you treat them right.
But like the RIAA before him, Jon Bongiovi wants to place blame. Wants to find a scapegoat for the end of an era. As if overpriced CDs could go on forever.
Yes, in case you missed it, in yesterday's "Times", the English version, Jon Bongiovi said:
Funny how when Bongiovi finally decides to say something negative he gets it wrong.
In an era where electric cars are not only imminent, but available, when modern communications allow you to speak to friends across the world for free, Jon Bongiovi is lamenting the fact that we all don't buy vinyl records and get spoon-fed by radio.
The landscape might be murky now. But we're going to a better place. Where bland, written by committee confections like Bon Jovi's work will be the exception instead of the rule.
With one dumb statement Bon Jovi has become a laughingstock. This quote is all over the Web. My inbox is filling up.
What did they used to say in the sixties? You're either with us or against us?
Turns out Bongiovi is against us. He doesn't want more music for more people at a cheaper price, which the Internet affords, he just wants to maintain his private plane lifestyle.
He's what's wrong with America today. Ignorance.
You find it rampant amongst adults.
But not with kids. They read the news all day long online. They know which way the wind blows. They know Steve Jobs is a hero, not a zero.
Kids don't go to see Bon Jovi.
They're into something new. Or something old of value, true classic rock.
It's not Steve Jobs who killed the music business, it's the audience. An audience that had been ripped off for years, sold overpriced junk, who used new technologies to get what they wanted for free. If anything, as stated above, Mr. Jobs should be lauded for establishing a way for rights holders to get paid!
Some day in the future, Bongiovi and Jobs are going to die.
And who do you think will be remembered?
The guy with the feathered hairdo from New Jersey or the college dropout who revolutionized society by providing tools?
That's all Steve Jobs did, provide tools. Now people can use computers to create music, they don't need a rich uncle with a recording studio. Tunecore makes labels unnecessary.
If you don't think we're in a better place now than in the heyday of Bon Jovi then I sentence you to twenty four hours straight of "New Jersey". Hopefully, after that, you'll see the light.
The truth is slippery.
But the key is to keep trying to unearth it, to not be afraid of the future but to embrace it.
Bongiovi is living in a vacuum. And if he keeps coming out with heinous comments like this, his career will be living on a prayer.
To be honest, I'm a bit skeptical as to whether Jon even said this (or at least said it in quite the way it's been portrayed), given the age of his children and his apparent acceptance (if not complete understanding) of the changing music business landscape in the past. Hell, Richie Sambora uses iTunes, even though he's a vinyl boy. And the music business "died" way before iTunes, when it tried to kill Napster and sue music fans instead of recognising the fact that people wanted a cheap, convenient way to obtain music and giving them a place to do it legally.
But there's no doubting Jon's nostalgic for those "magical" days, and while I didn't grow up in the era of vinyl, I do still like buying CDs and studying the album sleeve, so I can relate to that. Having said that, I'm in my early 20s and practically grew up on the Internet. And if Bon Jovi wants to be genuinely relevant going forward, they'll need to embrace social media and the digital revolution much more than they currently do. Staying relevant involves making good music that connects with people and making sure they can access it easily, not churning out watered-down pop tunes and using outdated (or non-existent) marketing strategies.
Getting the crew to tweet a link every few days or post a video every time you hit a milestone for Facebook likes may be enough for existing fans, but does nothing to bring in new ones. That said, compared to where they were a couple of years ago, they're virtually acing the new media class.
On a somewhat related note, Bon Jovi the band is now 28 years old, having formed on March 14, 1983. They celebrated by hitting 10 million Facebook fans and inviting fans to join the celebration.

As people age (I'm 33 and have experienced this somewhat), they get nostalgic for the way things used to be. I think that is all that is happening here and Lefsetz is going a bit overboard.
Is the band (and Jon) surrounded by yes men and sometimes horrible handlers/management, most definitely. But I doubt that he was doing anything except pining for "the good old days" (like it was when he was young - and just like all of us tend to do at some point). He just is in the unfortunate position of having his words spread all around the globe. ;-)
Lee-Ann March 15, 2011 at 11:18 PM
Bon Jovi has been a fairly consistent target of Lefsetz's attacks in the "old vs new" debate. As I said in the post, I think Bon Jovi could do more to adapt to the digital age. But yes, I do think Jon's comments have been blown out of proportion here, as I alluded to here and on other forums. :)
FWIW, I pine for the good old days when I could come home from school and watch Rugrats until dinner, but alas... :P
Richard Cord March 16, 2011 at 12:31 AM
JBJ's comments were misguided at Steve ... but the point was a valid one and is shared by the crowd who do Vinyl Record Clubs

As of now, the fix has only been applied to tobacco plants, so we're a long way off using this to boost our food supply. But it's an incredibly promising first step.
So what is this 'glitch' that needed fixing? It's a little-known step in photosynthesis known as photorespiration.
"We could feed up to 200 million additional people with the calories lost to photorespiration in the Midwestern US each year," says principal investigator Donald Ort from the University of Illinois Carl R. Woese Institute for Genomic Biology.
To understand what goes wrong, you need to understand a little about the haphazard process of evolution. In the immortal words of Dr Ian Malcolm in the sci-fi classic Jurassic Park, "Life finds a way". What he didn't say is sometimes that way is an inefficient hot mess.
For many plants, including rice and soybeans, when it comes to photosynthesis, it's a bare pass. We're talking a begrudging C-.
Fortunately plants have evolved a way to rid themselves of this poison, called photorespiration. They don't mind spending a portion of their energy on this vital recycling process if it helps them survive.
"It costs the plant precious energy and resources that it could have invested in photosynthesis to produce more growth and yield," says lead author and molecular biologist Paul South with the US Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service.
Rice, wheat, and soybeans all suffer from this need to clear out toxic buildup. Not only do they happen to be three of the four crops our world's population relies on for most our calories, we can expect their yield to drop in the future thanks to global warming.
"RuBisCO has even more trouble picking out carbon dioxide from oxygen as it gets hotter, causing more photorespiration," says co-author Amanda Cavanagh from the University of Illinois.
A handful came from the bacterium E. coli's glycolate oxidation pathway. A second version used a gene for catalase also from E. coli, and some for a glycolate oxidase and malate synthase from plants.
Life doesn't always find a way. But if we're to get food to where it's needed in the future, science will have to.
