Maybe all disgraced politicians should resign on Facebook Live
Governor Ricardo A. Rosselló of Puerto Rico just did
Governor Ricardo A. Rosselló of Puerto Rico just did.
People watch and listen to a live broadcast of an address by Puerto Rico Governor Ricardo Rosell on a smartphone in San Juan, Puerto Rico, on Wednesday, July 24, 2019.

These days politicians (and political careers) live and die by social media, so it's entirely appropriate that embattled Governor Ricardo A. Rosselló of Puerto Rico chose to announce his resignation with a little help from Facebook Live late Wednesday night.
Rosselló's exit (his last day on the job will be Aug. 2) came in the wake of a week-plus of public protests triggered by leaked internal chats between the governor and his advisers—which were disseminated via legacy and social media alike. The chats, hilariously, took place on Telegram, the messaging platform that hypes its superior level of privacy with lines on its website such as "Telegram keeps your messages safe from hacker attacks" and "Telegram messages are heavily encrypted and can self-destruct."
It's unclear how the messages were leaked, but it turns out Rosselló didn't need much help with his own self-destruction. Chat transcripts revealed a vile culture in his administration that came from the top down. Among the targets of Rosselló & Co.'s nastiness were San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz. As Ray Sanchez of CNN reports,
In the chat, Christian Sobrino Vega—who was Puerto Rico's chief fiscal officer at the time, and Roselló's representative on the federal board responsible for managing Puerto Rico's financial crisis—expressed frustration with Yulín Cruz.
"I am salivating to shoot her," he wrote.
"You'd be doing me a grand favor," the governor responded, according to the leaked chats.
Instead, he did himself in. But he went out with a whimper, not a bang.
Taking to Facebook Live just before midnight last night (the local media outlets sharing the broadcast via their personal accounts), Roselló delivered a self-serving, self-congratulatory speech in which he buried the lede.
Per Patricia Mazzei and Frances Robles of The New York Times,
Hundreds of protesters outside La Fortaleza, the governor's official residence, went suddenly silent on Wednesday night when Mr. Rosselló's message began to air after hours of delay, with groups huddled around cellphones to listen. The crowd, shouting, grew restless as the 14-minute statement dragged on, but it burst into thunderous applause the moment he announced he would resign. Puerto Rican flags shot into the air and the drumbeats began, to chants of "¡Oé! ¡Oé ¡Oé!"
Television ratings for the address have yet to come in, but Ad Age kept an eye on the audience levels of the Facebook Live-cast, and at its peak the stream had about 65,000 simultaneous viewers.
Once upon a time, high-profile political resignations were a big deal—tentpole events, in broadcast lingo. President Richard Nixon's August 8, 1974 resignation speech, for instance, drew an estimated live TV audience, at 9 p.m. ET, of 110 million viewers. That number, though, fell short of the July 20, 1969 audience for the moon landing—which some industry observers predicted Nixon would beat. As the Times noted at the time,
One network executive observed that after the news dispatches indicating the president would resign, "the speech itself was anticlimactic, and, we may have overestimated a bit the interest in the event itself." In New York, for example, some 450,000 viewers chose the baseball game between the Mets and the Pittsburgh Pirates on WOR‐TV, Channel 9, instead of the historic resignation of the president."
Actually, Rosselló was lucky to get even 65,000 simultaneous viewers on Facebook Live. (Puerto Ricans and other interested parties ended up watching on their own schedule; as of this writing, the archived version of the livestream has 1.7 million views.) In 2019, of course, resignation speeches delivered by disgraced politicians are entirely commonplace. You could practically bingewatch them, but why bother?
Really, the better idea is to just post your own video—of you and your fellow citizens cheering wildly in the streets.

Governors and leaders of Nigeria's South-South region are insisting that the country be restructured and true federalism practiced.
As part of multiple issues raised, they demanded the relocation of the headquarters of major oil companies in Nigeria – as well as several NNPC (the state-owned oil company) subsidiaries currently in Lagos and Abuja – to the region."
Those who attended the meeting were Governors Nyesom Wike (Rivers); Ben Ayade (Cross River); Udom Emmanuel (Akwa Ibom); Douye Diri (Bayelsa) and Godwin Obaseki (Edo).
Others were Minister of Niger Delta, Senator Godswill Akpabio; Minister of State for Petroleum, Chief Timipre Sylva; Minister of State for Power, Mr. Goddy Jeddy- Agba; Minister of State for Niger Delta, Mr. Festus Keyamo (SAN); Minister of Health, Dr. Osagie Ehanire, and Minister of Information, Alhaji Lai Mohammed.
The Minister of Transportation, Hon. Rotimi Amaechi was absent.
The chairman of the South-South Governors' Forum and Governor of Delta, Ifeanyi Okowa, who presented the region's demand, said that the restructuring of the country should be one that includes the devolution of powers to the federating units.
Mr. Okowa said that it was time to restore the country back to a true federation with all the attributes and nuances of a federal state.
"For us in the South-South, the #ENDSARS protest is a metaphor of almost all that is wrong with us, our refusal to properly understand issues, and imbibe and entrench the virtues of justice, fairness, and equity.
"The previous system of true federalism was jettisoned and it created a powerful center controlling and distributing all the resources unevenly.
"There is now a strong desire to restructure the country in order to guarantee peace, security, stability and progress of the nation.
"The region demands true federalism and devolution of powers to the states, including creating and managing their own police and security architecture, true fiscal federalism guided by the principle of derivation, revenue sharing and control of resources by each state," he said.
Their demands were made at a consultative regional meeting with a Federal Government delegation led by the Chief of Staff to the President, Prof. Ibrahim Gambari at the Government House, Port Harcourt on Tuesday.
Okowa decried the deliberate lack of understanding, empathy, and uncompromising attitudes of some Nigerians, who refused to understand the peculiar challenges of the South-South region, especially the degradation of the environment and the pollution of our waters.
"All we demand and ask for is fairness and equity and as we await actions to restructure the country, we hereby renew our demands for the relocation of the headquarters of major oil companies in Nigeria to the region; relocation of several NNPC subsidiaries from Lagos and Abuja to the region."
The leaders further requested the completion without delay of the East-West Road and all federal roads in the region; construction of the Lagos-Calabar railway and the reconstruction, and rehabilitation of the region's major seaports notably the Port Harcourt, Calabar and Warri.
The leaders also demanded the privatisation of the Port Harcourt and Warri refineries after several failed turn-around maintenance attempts.
The y also called for the release of all funds owed Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) and for the amendment of the NDDC Act to place the commission on a first-line charge.
They decried annual flooding challenge in the region and called for the establishment of buffer dams to control floodwaters in the region.
They also called for the completion of the abandoned Gas Revolution Industrial Park at Ogidigben and the stepping down of electricity at the Okpai and Utorogu gas plants.
Leader of the Presidential delegation, Ibrahim Gambari, thanked the people of the South-South for their co-operation, and assured that all issues raised at the meeting would be communicated to the President.
Mr. Gambari apologised for the failure of the meeting to hold on November 17 earlier slated and said "we are here on behalf of the President as part of the ongoing and continuing conversation on how to make our nation better and I must thank the Governor of Delta, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, for his tireless effort in ensuring that this meeting held.
"Our youths took to the streets to express their bitterness on ill-treatment meted out to them by the police and the President, recognising the importance of the demands made by the protesters agreed to implement the five demands.
"All over the world, people have right to protest but in doing so, the respect for law and order must be adhered to and they must also respect the rights of others.
"The President commends governors, traditional rulers and other stakeholders for their role in handling the protesters," he said
Deputy President of the Senate, Ovie Omo-Agege, on his part, commended the youth of South-South for their peaceful disposition during the protests.
He assured that all constitutional issues canvassed would be addressed by the Constitution Review Committee and urged the governors to prevail on their Houses of Assemblies to give the necessary concurrence at the appropriate time.
Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, in his remark, said aside from the massive economic effects of the protests, 243 public facilities were burnt, 71 warehouses looted, 610 vehicles destroyed, 134 police stations burnt,164 police vehicles destroyed and 136 firearms carted away.
He added that 65 civilians were killed during the protests and 37 policemen murdered while 196 persons were seriously injured.
On his part, Director-General, Department of State Services (DSS), Yusuf Magaji-Bichi, said the unity of the country, in spite of the diversity, remained the strength of the nation, adding that all hands must be on deck to ensure that peace returned to the country.
Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, in a vote of thanks, commended the Federal Government delegation and leaders of the region for attending the meeting and urged the federal authorities to ensure implementation of the region's demands.

If you have a loved one who is facing DUI charges, or if you yourself are concerned, this article will provide a general overview of the legal procedure for a DUI case from start to finish.
The Driver Comes in Contact with Police. A DUI case begins when you come in contact with the police. This typically happens because of a traffic- related incident, such as a traffic violation (speeding or weaving) or a traffic accident.
The Police Notice Indications or Alcohol or Drugs. The police officer may notice a scent of alcohol in your breath or physical symptoms such as slurred speech, bloodshot eyes, etc.
Tests Are Performed by Police. The next step is where the police officer builds the case against you by collecting data through field sobriety tests or chemical tests, such as a breath test or blood draw.
Booked in Jail/Car Impounded. You will typically be booked in jail and your car will be impounded.
Prosecutor Reviews. The Prosecutor reviews the evidence and decides whether to charge you with an offense or decline to file charges. If you are charged with DUI, it is likely in your best interest to engage and attorney as soon as possible.
Driver's Licenses Suspension. After the arrest, your licenses is suspended for 30 days. The DMV will automatically suspend your driver's license after the 30 days unless you request a DMV hearing within 10 days of your arrest.
Arraignment. This is your first hearing where you have an opportunity to enter a plea of guilty, not guilty or no context. Entering a not guilty plea is very common at this stage, and you should not feel forced to enter a guilty plea even if you believe you are guilty.
Hearings/Plea Negotiations/Motions. You may likely come back to court several times during the course of your case to negotiate with prosecutor or present a motion. A typical motion is a Motion to Suppress, where you or your attorney argue that certain information cannot be considered as evidence in your case because it was obtained in violation of your Constitutional rights.
Trial/Plea. Eventually the case will either go to trial, where you will be convicted or acquitted, or you will enter a plea, or the prosecutor may in rare instances at some point choose to dismiss the case.
Sentencing. The sentencing phase is where the judge determines the appropriate consequence for your actions. Often sentencing will involve meeting with a counselor, who will ask questions and prepare a report about you for the judge. The counselor may make recommendations to the judge regarding appropriate education or therapy. At sentencing, the judge may impose jail time, community service, and fines.

THE CASE OF CHILUFYA TAYALI
In the early evening hours of the 13 November, police raided the house of Chilufya Tayali, leader of the small - and frankly, insignificant - Economic Equity Party (EEP). Accused of Defaming the President, that Sunday evening he was bundled into a police van along with a reporter and cameraman on the scene and covering the incident.
Tayali has been arrested over defaming Hichilema before, most recently in April of this year. He has been a consistently outspoken critic of this regime in particular and HH's politics in general. But, Defaming the President is not a law applied only to Tayali; since the UPND gained power last year, on average one person a month has been arrested for 'committing' this crime, most of them not high-profile politicians like those quick to visit Tayali in prison. These included Socialist Party leader Fred M'membe, who claimed Tayali was tortured by police officers; and PF leaders, who were evidently reminiscent of the days when they too could lock up outspoken critics. Others attending this requiem for the death of Zambia's fragile democracy were concerned about Zambia's 'media rights', decrying the unjustified arrest of the journalist and his cameraman.
Ostensibly Hichilema wishes to scrap the law, a part of His set of highly noble campaign promises, which I presume also includes flying on a rocket to space and ending poverty worldwide (who knows; who even reads political manifestos anyways?). However, at the same time, He has consistently and publicly committed to 'upholding the law', which conveniently includes 'Defaming the President'. And thus, we are presented with some Orwellian double[1] think: we must simultaneously believe that the 'Defaming the President' law is wrong, whilst agreeing that it must still be upheld. Purportedly, this double-think has a greater political logic to it: its primary purpose is for the state to wrest back control 'the law' from PF cadres, who in the previous regime would circumvent institutional channels to mete out their own forms of 'justice'(read: political intimidation). But all this seems to have done is simply shift the policing of public discourse from coarse cadres to coarse police officer. Nowhere in this equation does the actual legitimacy of the law become a subject of discussion.
And so, one naturally wonders what 'Defaming the President' actually means - what are the proposed limits of the president's monarchical sanctity, when does one 'cross the line'? Thus, in the interests of public safety, statutory interpretation for posterity, and how best to speed up my imminent arrest, I have created a list of defaming-the-president scenarios. Will I get arrested if I:
i) fail to capitalise 'his excellency' in a diary entry?
ii) call the dear comrade head of state a charlatan and a fraud to Daisy, my dog?
iii) curse Him on a live Facebook stream, in ways I reserve almost-exclusively for drivers on our pot-holed roads?
iv) moon Him when the presidential motorcade drives past?
Perhaps the current crop of politicians already gets away with the above, although I'm still waiting for the day when Tayali & co to stand roadside, bend over, and moon the president. It must be said that whilst 'upholding the law' continues unabated, defamation continues unabashed. It seems like Defaming the President is the great coming-of-age of our period, the catcher in the rye for political upstarts. And Defaming the President is not only becoming more virulent, but is becoming more widespread, aided by the quick transfer of media via social network sites. Some see this as a tearing apart of the fabric of public discourse, sewn together by the promises of reasonable, rational debate. And I largely agree with the premises of such an argument. I just worry when reasonable debate take place without its opposite: unreasonable debate. Must every criticism be couched within the rules of 'proper' public discourse, laid down by the presidential authority, with the full force of the police and other state powers, at its side? What of satire? What of this column?


Airfields of North Lincolnshire - including Sandtoft in the Isle - will be the topic for a series of talks starting next month.
The popular aviation heritage talk series is returning to the county as part of the Northern Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Project.
Phil Bonner from Aviation Heritage Lincolnshire will be giving this first talk of the year on Friday February at 7pm at Hibaldstow Airfield.
He will bring back to life the history of Lincolnshire airfields in World War One.
Councillor Rob Waltham, cabinet member for tourism at North Lincolnshire Council, said: "The aviation heritage talks provide a brilliant insight into the Northern Lincolnshire and Lincolnshire aviation history. Our area has a strong aviation legacy that the Northern Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage project aims to raise awareness of and bring back to life.
The Northern Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage project celebrates the wartime heritage of the area, linking it to airfields with sites further south in Lincolnshire and commemorating 'Bomber County'.
There are eight World War Two airfields across Northern Lincolnshire from RAF Sandtoft in the west to RAF Grimsby to the east.
Each of these airfields played an important role during the war and has its own unique story to tell, like RAF Goxhill which was the first British Station given over to American control, or RAF Kirton-in-Lindsey, which was home to the famous Eagle Squadron.
RAF Sandtoft opened in February 1944 as a satellite airfield to RAF Lindholme which was three miles to the west. Number 1 Group RAF Bomber Command based a number of aircraft here from the RAF 1667 Heavy Conversion Unit, including Handley Page Halifaxes from RAF Faldingworth and Avro Lancasters. In November 1944 the airfield transferred to No. 7 Group Bomber Command. The station closed on November 10, 1945.

If you have even a passing interest in designing sites, then you should take a look at the following ideas. This informative article will enlighten you with some of the latest news on the subject of how to design personal websites and make them work well; look great!
Once you begin to move beyond the basic information, you will begin to realize that there is more to building personal websites than you may have first thought.
Learning beginner web design is not always easy but hopefully reading these paragraphs will help you to become a better personal web designer.
With the busy schedules that most of us experience today, we are prone to missing out on events that were once of utmost importance. Family gatherings fall by the wayside, replaced by that important meeting.
Graduations of extended families are sometimes difficult to attend, with the scheduling and expense of long distance travel. Worst of all, everyday stories of our loved ones are often never heard, sometimes due only to the cost of long distance calls.
However, we are living in the age of the Internet, where people can instantly exchange information. This is a time when we can a take a photo one minute, and have it on the other side of the world in that same minute.
Web Design Tutorials. Exclusive Step-by-step Web Design Lessons Reveal The Secrets To Creating Your Own Personal Website.
Why Design a Personal Website?
But remember, sharing through email can never fully show the pride and joy of our families, and the range of media technology. There is no better way to proudly display ourselves and our families than through a personal web site.
When you venture into the world of personal web sites, you can display family videos, audio files with your favorite music, photographs, and web journals (Blogs). Announcements can be made by the click of a mouse and recent news can be heard by just hitting enter.
Personal web sites used for family and extended family use need to have the capabilities to retain all forms of media. It's best if you have a high speed Internet connection, because this will cut your work and loading time in half.
Before you start designing, you will want to map out the look and feel of your personal web site.
Photo album, and videos" or do you want broader areas in which the whole family can contribute, like " Griswald family photo album, Carter Family blog"?
For basic personal web sites, you should have a section devoted to a journal. Here, you can chronicle family events and milestones.
You can talk about your child's accomplishments, a new car, a new career, weddings, birthdays, and urgent news. This online journal, also known as a blog, is open to your entire family.
If you install a Comment Box, you can even discover your visitor's opinions, congratulations, and comments posted alongside your blog entry. This blog can also contain photos of all those events that you cherish.
Another thought: You might want an entire section devoted to photographs. A photo album section is the perfect addition to personal web sites. With it, your extended family will always feel as though they were there.
Video can also be part of personal web sites. With a simple camera phone, you can record and share every event that you previously could only wish the rest of your family could have seen. If done properly, you can accumulate enough videos to create a video diary.
To make your personal web site really stand out; why not add some audio? A little background music adds a nice touch. But, if you decide to add audio to your website, be sure and have a stop button for those who do not wish to hear it. Otherwise, it can be annoying to some personal website visitors.
Of course, it's impossible to put everything about personal websites into just one article. But you must admit that you have just added to your understanding about designing personal websites, and that's time well spent.
There's no doubt that the topic of personal web design and promotion can be fascinating.
If you still have unanswered questions about designing your website, you may find what you are looking for in the next webmaster report.

French Championship
vs Vire
vs Saint-Lo
Avante-Garde Caen Postponed the Match against Vire
Football players have to be in good physical shape to withstand a half-hour run across a huge field. That's why people who aren't familiar with sports are surprised by the abilities of professional athletes. But despite the great conditioning of body and mind, a person is still vulnerable to smaller opponents!
the Avante-Garde Caen club's September began with extremely bad news about the illness of several members. The team had an important match ahead in the French championship qualification, but rules are rules. Positive results on Covid forced the coaching staff to ask for a postponement of the meeting.
Faced with several positive results of the Covid-19 virus, the football club's management from Caen sent a request to the Normandy League asking them to set another date for the match. The next date of the important event will be chosen next week.
Although the epidemic of the virus has passed, there are new outbreaks all over the world with varying frequency. September and the transitional period between summer and fall are traditionally considered dangerous times for people prone to illness. Athletes are no exception.
Fans are upset about the cancellation of a promising match, but no one is in a position to do anything about it. The decision to postpone the date has already been made and the public will have to wait a little longer to see their favorites on the field.
Both teams showed themselves at their best at the beginning of the season and won their first battles by a landslide. Their meeting promises to be spectacular and extremely interesting. But officials have already notified the journalists that the game will not take place this Saturday due to several instances of Covid in the ranks of the Caen outfit.
Restrictions caused by the recent pandemic are being lifted around the world, but security measures have not been canceled. The Normandy League, as the governing body, is responsible for the health of football players and spectators, so it must comply with all recommendations of the French Ministry of Health.
The management of the football association has not yet adopted clear rules regulating the rules of conduct in connection with the threat of disease, so the only correct decision, in their opinion, was to postpone the match. The Competition Commission has given its explanations on this situation and refers to the decision of the French Football Federation.
It is worth noting that back in late summer, the Federation adopted a protocol on health, but there is no mention of the conditions of the postponement of meetings between the clubs.
Therefore, the decision looks a little confused and argued primarily by the absence of clear rules of conduct in such situations. The Competition Commission has already announced an unscheduled meeting, in order to develop a protocol against the spread of Covid-19.
Vire President Bruno Belas also gave a short interview about the problems. According to him, the governing bodies of the championship made a big mistake by not dealing with the issue in time. Since there was no regulatory framework, they could have easily refused to postpone the match and the opponents would have been automatically defeated.
He showed good faith and, understanding the unforeseen circumstances, agreed to meet the requests of Bruno Belas, President of AG Caen. But he pointed out that this kind of thing must not happen again. And the commission must urgently take the necessary decisions to keep other clubs from unpleasant situations in the future.
No one alive today knows how much more humanity will suffer from the Covid-19 virus, but that does not mean that it cannot be dealt with. All football players, fans, coaches, and other officials are taking steps to prevent the disease. And it is the only right thing to do in such circumstances!
The AGCaenFootball.com team recommends that all readers take their health more responsibly and not endanger themselves or their loved ones. Sports, especially football, promote overall physical health and the immune system in particular.
Look up to your idols and stay healthy! If you want to continue to support Avante-Garde, you can benefit from excellent health and a clear mind!

Playground Franchise Opportunity Guide
Play is a huge part of a child's life. It's how children learn, and, with the growing rates of childhood obesity, active play is becoming an increasingly important part of keeping children healthy and fit. Children's playground franchises, whether offering free play or structured age-appropriate exercise programs, provide a safe place for kids to be active, stay healthy, and feel good about themselves. If you enjoy being active and working with children, this type of children's franchise could provide a successful, rewarding career.
There are children's franchises offering active, safe play in an established location, and mobile children's playground franchises that provide exercise programs to daycares and preschools. Typical exercise facilities don't allow children under a certain age, and preschools and daycares don't often provide structured exercise; children's franchises help fill that gap and play a necessary role in helping kids feel good about themselves and their abilities, setting the stage for a lifetime of physical health. Children's playground franchises are the ideal business opportunity for people who want to share their love of physical fitness and sports with a younger generation and truly impact their lives.
If you're self-motivated and would like to be your own boss, explore the franchise opportunities listed on our site. If you'd like further information about these children's franchises, select the franchise in which you're interested, complete the information request form, and Franchising.com will forward your contact information to the business of your choice.
Buying a franchise and taking charge of your own life with a children's playground could be part of your not-so-distant future. Also, feel free to explore all of the available childrens franchise opportunities available at Franchising.com.

We are proud to recognize Marci Houff, Founder of Chic Awearness, as our Good Deeds recipient for the month of September, which is also Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. An ovarian cancer survivor herself, Marci is on a mission to help as many patients as possible and has raised over $200,000 for research so far.
"When hearing the words in 2008, "You have ovarian cancer", two thoughts came to mind immediately: I have a four year old daughter and ovarian cancer is the silent killer. Ten years later, I am truly one of the lucky women to have survived late stage ovarian cancer. My beautiful daughter is now a freshman in high school and the charity that I founded in 2013 called Chic Awearness has succeeded in raising the awareness in Nashville of this deadly disease.


I've always been pleased with the Toyota cars, their reliability and the service. I recommend these cars to family and friends especially because of the car's reliability.
Good people great service... They were good to me and very helpful..The process was easy and fast. I'm happy with what I got. If your in need of a vehicle definitely the place to go!!!
I have bought 4 cars from Euroasiancars. All of them have been wonderful. Other than general maintenance, you will not have any issues at all. The best part about purchasing a vehicle from here is they make you feel like family. It is always pressure free and they will work with you in anyway possible. These qualities and so much more have made me a continued customer of 8 years. As long as they are in business, I will keep coming back. Bottom line, if you're needing a car, give these guys a chance. You won't regret it.

Q: R - extracting column in dataframes of a loop I need to save a list of csv files and extract values from thr 13th row on of a specific column (the second one) from each of dataframes.
Here's my try:
temp <- list.files(FILEPATH, pattern="*\\.csv$", full.names = TRUE)

for (i in 1:length(temp)){
  assign(temp[i], read.csv(temp[i], header=TRUE, ski[=13, na.strings=c("", "NA")))
  subset(temp[i], select=2) #extract the second column of the dataframe
  temp[i] <- na.omit(temp[i])

However, this doesn't work. On the one hand, I think that's because of the skip argument of the read.csv command, as it apparently ignores the headers. On the other hand, if skip is not used, the following error pops up:

Error in subset.default(temp[i], select = 2) :    argument "subset" is
  missing, with no default

When I insert the argument subset=TRUE in the subset command, it doesn't give any error, but no extraction is performed.
Any possible solution?

A: Without seeing the files it's not easy to tell, but I would use lapply, not a for loop. Maybe you can get inspiration from something like the follwing. I use read.table because you skip = 13 lines and read.csv reads in the first line as column headers. Note that I avoid the use of assign.
df_list <- lapply(temp, read.table, sep = ",", skip = 13, na.strings = c("", "NA"))
names(df_list) <- temp
col2_list <- lapply(df_list, `[[`, 2)
col2_list <- lapply(col2_list, na.omit)
names(col2_list) <- temp
col2_list

If you want col2_list to be a list of df's with just one column each, column 2 of the original files, then, like I've said in comment use
col2_list <- lapply(df_list, `[`, 2)

And to rename that one column and renumber the rows consecutively
new_name <- "the_column_of_choice"  #  change this!
col2_list <- lapply(col2_list, function(x){
            names(x) <- new_name
            row.names(x) <- NULL
            x
        })

Marie Gatza was in the Detroit area during the events of July 1967.
WW: Thanks so much. And we are in Monroe, Michigan.
MG: That's right. I wasn't one of the sisters who were actually present on the scene where the riots were happening in Detroit, at that time. However, I was working with Sister Margaret Brennan, who was the president of the IHM congregation at that point. And since Margaret died just a few months ago, I felt that I was getting a little nudge from her to go and say something about what she was doing, and what we were concerned about at the time that the riots were happening in the Detroit area.
So, our televisions were on, and we were on the phones contacting, or trying to contact a number of our sisters who had— who were living in the convents in the area, and teaching in the schools in the area, concerned for their safety. So we saw on the television pictures of the rioting and the terrible wreckage and destruction that was occurring, and we could hardly believe that was happening in our wonderful city of Detroit.
But basically, we wanted to let the sisters know that we were praying for them, and that we were concerned for their safety, and that we were hopeful that the confusion that was going on would be short-lived and that everything could be restored to safety again. So I just wanted— I thought maybe it would be important for you to understand that it was the whole community that was involved, as well as our sisters who were directly on the scene where the riots were happening, and we're so sorry that all of that occurred, but that's part of the history.
WW: Were you surprised by the outbreak in '67?
MG: I think I was surprised, but as I look back on it, I could see that things were coming to a head in some way, and would probably have to break loose some time or other.
MG: I think it made us feel closer to Detroit, in a way, more caring, because these were our people. We had loads of students in the area, who were concerned about their parents, and we were connected with them. They were our brothers and sisters in the area, so what was happening to them was happening to us too. We were hurting as they were hurting, and we hoped for better times for them.

WPFD: NUJ, Benue State Council Calls For Protection Of Journalists
Mrs Asher further called on Media owners to improve on the remuneration of their staff to enhance their productivity just as st urged security agencies to always protect the media from attacks as they play their watchdog role it.v the society.The NUJ Chairman also appealed to state government to improve the condition of state owned media to ensure that they have a conducive environment for optimal performance.
Posted on May 03, 2019, 4:28 pm
From Msughshima Andrew, Makurdi
The Chairman, Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) Benue State Council, Mrs Victoria Asher has called on government and security agencies to ensure adequate protection of journalist as partners in the Nigerian project.
The Chairman made this call in a press statement signed on her behalf by the council Secretary, Moses Akarhan and made available to 247ureports.com
She said as the council joined their fellow colleagues across the globe to commemorate this year's World Press Freedom Day themed: "Media for Democracy: Journalism and Elections in times of disinformation, it is necessary to call attention to freedom and protection of media men.
She commended the media for its role in sustaining the democratic rule in the country, especially the professional conduct of media practitioners in the just concluded 2019 general elections.
Mrs Asher further called on Media owners to improve on the remuneration of their staff to enhance their productivity just as st urged security agencies to always protect the media from attacks as they play their watchdog role it.v the society.
The NUJ Chairman also appealed to state government to improve the condition of state owned media to ensure that they have a conducive environment for optimal performance.
The NUJ chairman called on members of the Public, particularly politicians, leaders and the government to see the media as partners in progress and support media Freedom to advance the agenda of deepening democracy and sustainable development in the society.
She urged Journalists to adhere to the ethics of the profession and always verify their information before reporting to avoid fake news, which is a canker worm to the society and a threat to the profession.
She said fake news causes security breach, communal, religious and ethic distrust and warned members to desist from it.
The statement read in part, "World Press Freedom Day was proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in December 1993 following the recommendation of UNESCO's General Conference on May 3. The day is globally set aside to raise awareness on the importance of freedom of the Press in shaping the society."
The Union also paid tribute to all their colleagues who lost their lives in the course of carrying out their duties and prayed God to grant them eternal rest.

Адольфо Калеро Портокарреро (; 22 декабря 1931, Манагуа — 2 июня 2012, Манагуа) — никарагуанский политик, бизнесмен и юрист. Противник диктатуры Сомосы и сандинистского режима. Политический руководитель Никарагуанских демократических сил, один из лидеров движения Контрас. Активный участник гражданской войны 1980-х годов против правительства СФНО. Личный друг Рональда Рейгана. Неоконсерватор, антикоммунист.

При режиме Сомосы
Родился в буржуазной семье. Учился в католических вузах США — Университете Нотр Дам и Сиракьюсском университете. Работал топ-менеджером на заводе Coca-Cola в Манагуа.

Несмотря на принадлежность к слою сомосистской элиты (вплоть до семейных родственных связей), Калеро состоял в консервативной партии, оппозиционной режиму Сомосы. В 1978 году Калеро тайно встречался с представителями СФНО. За эти контакты и публичные оппозиционные выступления был арестован и некоторое время находился в тюрьме. Освобождён после победы никарагуанской революции.

Переход в оппозицию к сандинистам
Первоначально Калеро рассчитывал на сотрудничество с сандинистами, предлагал правительству СФНО свои услуги в качестве промышленного менеджера. Однако марксистские тенденции сандинистов, курс на монополизацию власти, усиление прокоммунистической группы Томаса Борхе—Ленина Серны вынудили Калеро перейти в оппозицию.

После изгнания Сомосы мы ждали исполнения нашей мечты о демократии. Вместо этого мы получили советский тоталитарный режим, диктатуру, угнетение, эксплуатацию Советским Союзом и Кубой.

Адольфо Калеро

В декабре 1982 года Калеро покинул Никарагуа с намерением развернуть антисандинистскую борьбу.

Во главе контрас
За короткое время Калеро посетил США, Панаму, Колумбию, Коста-Рику и Гондурас, провёл переговоры о поддержке никарагуанской оппозиции. В январе 1983 года присоединился к движению Никарагуанские демократические силы (FDN). Программа FDN требовала перехода к политическому плюрализму, проведения в Никарагуа свободных выборов, гарантий гражданских прав. С октября 1983 Калеро возглавил FDN. C этого времени произошла резкая интенсификация антисандинистских атак.

Адольфо Калеро, политический функционер Аристидес Санчес и полевой командир Энрике Бермудес составляли руководящую триаду FDN, получившую название «Железный треугольник» — Triángulo de Hierro. Калеро не участвовал непосредственно в боях с правительственными войсками сандинистов, но участвовал в спецоперациях, организовывал подготовку бойцов в тренировочных лагерях, курировал финансовые вопросы, контролировал банковские счета FDN. Однако главной его функцией являлось политическое руководство.

Летом 1985 года FDN консолидировались с Никарагуанским демократическим движением Альфонсо Робело, группой Артуро Круса и ополчением индейцев-мискито KISAN Стэдмана Фагота в Объединённую никарагуанскую оппозицию (UNO). Калеро представлял правое, неоконсервативное крыло, Крус — либеральное, Робело — близкое к социал-демократии. Леворадикальное направление контрас символизировал бывший полевой командир СФНО Эден Пастора.

FDN являлись наиболее активной и дееспособной структурой никарагуанской оппозиции. Организация Калеро—Санчеса—Бермудеса располагала реальными вооружёнными формированиями, организационной сетью и финансовыми ресурсами. Основные боевые действия Контрас велись на Северном фронте, с территории Гондураса, где базировались отряды FDN.

Из всех лидеров никарагуанской оппозиции именно у Калеро сложились наиболее близкие отношения с администрацией США и лично президентом Рейганом. Идеологически Адольфо Калеро разделял неоконсервативные принципы рейганизма.

В июне 1985 года Адольфо Калеро представлял никарагуанскую вооружённую оппозицию на международной конференции партизан-антикоммунистов в ангольском городе Джамба. В мероприятии также участвовал подполковник Оливер Норт (на тот момент — сотрудник Совета национальной безопасности США), партнёр Калеро по тайным операциям.

Разногласия с Робело и Крусом привели к отставке Калеро с поста руководителя UNO и распаду объединения. Однако весной 1987, при создании коалиции «Никарагуанское сопротивление» (RN), Калеро снова возглавил движение контрас.

Скандалы и обвинения
Подполковник Норт и Адольфо Калеро были ключевыми фигурами операции Иран-контрас. В 1987 Калеро вызывался для дачи показаний в конгресс США. На слушаниях он признал конфиденциальные связи с подполковником Нортом, доверительный характер отношений и тайные финансовые операции. В то же время, по его словам, ему не было известно «иранское» происхождение получаемых финансовых средств.

Против Калеро периодически выдвигались обвинения в причастности к наркобизнесу. Сообщалось также о его многолетней деятельности в качестве информатора ЦРУ. Первое основывалось на малоавторитетных источниках и не получило доказательных подтверждений. Второе выглядело правдоподобно, но также никак не документировалось и не считается доказанным.

Роль в политическом урегулировании
Калеро активно участвовал в переговорном процессе урегулирования никарагуанского конфликта. Поначалу переговоры шли трудно, в атмосфере недоверия и взаимных обвинений. Однако впоследствии ситуация изменилась. Главным партнёром Калеро выступал Умберто Ортега — брат сандинистского президента Даниэля Ортеги, военный министр сандинистского правительства. Вопреки ожиданиям, Калеро и Ортега-младший довольно быстро нашли общий язык и согласовали схему урегулирования.

Мы сняли напряжение, проявили сердечность и гибкость в переговорах.

Умберто Ортега

Соглашение Сапоа о прекращении огня и политическом диалоге между контрас и сандинистским правительством было заключено 23 марта 1988 года. На дальнейших переговорах был согласован план политической реформы в Никарагуа, освобождения политзаключённых и проведения свободных выборов. Эти договорённости вызвали протесты радикально настроенных контрас во главе с Бермудесом. Однако компромиссную позицию Калеро поддержал Госдепартамент США.

После гражданской войны
После свободных выборов 1990 года Калеро вернулся в Никарагуа. Ему был возвращён дом, ранее конфискованный правительством. От активной политики Калеро в целом отошёл, но состоял в законодательной группе правой Либерально-конституционной партии, был депутатом Центральноамериканского парламента. В 1997—2002 годах поддерживал праволиберального президента Арнольдо Алемана. Занимался юридической практикой. Наблюдатели отмечают, что несмотря на длительное распоряжение крупными суммами Калеро никогда не обвинялся в коррупции и не приобрёл значительных богатств.

Отмечались сложности в отношениях Калеро с Бермудесом, который считал чрезмерными уступки, допущенные со стороны контрас.

В 2011 году увидела свет книга Адольфо Калеро Cronicas de un Contra («Хроника контрас») о никарагуанском вооружённом сопротивлении 1980-х годов.

Кончина. Отклики и оценки
Адольфо Калеро скончался через месяц с небольшим после смерти своего главного сандинистского антипода Томаса Борхе.

После кончины Калеро телеграмму соболезнования его семье направил Умберто Ортега.

Консервативный американский конгрессмен кубинского происхождения Марио Диас-Баларт назвал Адольфо Калеро «символом страны, борющейся за возвращение свободы».

Q: Evaluate $\int_{0}^1 \int_{0}^1 \int_{0}^1 \frac{1}{x^2+y^2+z^2}dxdydz$ I am trying to evaluate the following integral:
$$I =\int_{0}^1 \int_{0}^1 \int_{0}^1 \frac{1}{x^2+y^2+z^2}dxdydz.$$
Here is my trial. By using spherical coordinate, let
$x = r\sin(\theta)\cos(\phi), y = r\sin(\theta)\sin(\phi), z = r\cos(\phi).$
Then one can write $I$ as
$$ I = \int_{\Omega} \frac{1}{r^2} r^2\sin(\theta)drd\theta d\phi
= \int_{\Omega} \sin(\theta)drd\theta d\phi$$
where $\Omega$ is something I can't figure out...
Here $\Omega$ is
$$ \Omega = \{(r,\theta,\phi) : 0\le x,y,z \le 1\}.$$
Since $0\le z=r\cos(\phi) \le1$, we have
$$ 0 \le \arccos(1/r) \le \phi \le \pi/2. $$
Since $0\le y=r\sin(\theta)\cos(\phi) \le 1$, we have
$$ 0 \le \theta \le \arcsin(1/(r\cos(\phi)).$$
But I don't see how such classification help in evaluating $I$.
Any suggestions/comments/answers will be very appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

A: I might have a better idea than parametrizing a cube in spherical coordinates (ugh), which is to further exploit symmetry:
$$ \mathcal{J}=\iiint_{(-1,1)^3}\frac{d\mu}{x^2+y^2+z^2}=8\iiint_{(0,1)^3}\frac{d\mu}{x^2+y^2+z^2}=48\iiint_{0\leq z\leq y\leq x\leq 1}\frac{d\mu}{x^2+y^2+z^2} $$
Now the substitution $z=yc, dz=y\,dc$ turns the RHS into
$$ 48\int_{0}^{1}\int_{0}^{x}\int_{0}^{1}\frac{y}{x^2+y^2+c^2 y^2}\,dc  \,dy\,dx $$
and the substitution $y=xb, dy=x\,db$ turns the last integral into
$$ 48\int_{0}^{1}\int_{0}^{1}\int_{0}^{1}\frac{x^2 b}{x^2+b^2 x^2+c^2 b^2 x^2}\,dc  \,db\,dx = 48\int_{0}^{1}\int_{0}^{1}\frac{ b}{1+b^2+c^2 b^2}\,dc  \,db$$
or
$$ 24\int_{0}^{1}\frac{\log(2+c^2)}{1+c^2}\,dc=24\int_{0}^{\pi/4}\log(2+\tan^2\theta)d\theta  $$
which is an integral in a single-variable, requiring the dilogarithms machinery to be computed in closed form. Numerically, $\mathcal{J}\approx\frac{353}{23}$. In explicit terms
$$ \mathcal{J}=24\left[\text{Im}\,\text{Li}_2((3-2\sqrt{2})i)-G+\frac{\pi}{4}\log(3+2\sqrt{2})\right]$$
where $G$ is Catalan's constant.

A: Here is another way: Let $\mathbf{F}$ be defined by
$$ \mathbf{F} = \left( \frac{x}{x^2+y^2+z^2}, \frac{y}{x^2+y^2+z^2}, \frac{z}{x^2+y^2+z^2} \right). $$
Then it is easy to check that $\operatorname{div}\mathbf{F} = \frac{1}{x^2+y^2+z^2}$. So if $I$ denotes the integral in question, then by the divergence theorem1) we get
$$ 8I
= \int_{[-1, 1]^3} \operatorname{div}\mathbf{F} \, dV
= \int_{\partial [-1, 1]^3} \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{n} \, dA. $$
Again by symmetry,
$$ 8I
= 6 \int_{\{1\}\times[-1,1]^2} \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{e}_1 \, dydz
= 24 \int_{[0,1]^2} \frac{dydz}{1+y^2+z^2}.$$
Applying the polar coordinate change, we have
$$ \int_{[0,1]^2} \frac{dydz}{1+y^2+z^2}
= \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \int_{0}^{\sec\theta} \frac{2r}{1+r^2} \, drd\theta
= \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \log(1 + \sec^2\theta) \, d\theta,$$
which leads to the same integral as in Jack D'Aurizio's answer
$$ I = 3\int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{4}} \log(2 + \tan^2\theta) \, d\theta. $$

1) It can be easily shown, by excising a small ball around $0$ and letting the radius zero, that the singularity of $\mathbf{F}$ at $0$ poses no issue.

Q: Where does this unknown list of variables come from? Proposition: If $\psi$ is a subformula of $\phi$ and $\phi'$ results from replacing $0$ or more occurs of $\psi$ in $\phi$ per a well formed formula $\rho$ and each free variable of $\psi$ and $\rho$ that it's also a bound variable of $\phi$ occurs in the list $y_1,y_2,...,y_k,$ then $$\vdash [\forall y_1...\forall y_k(\psi\leftrightarrow\rho)]\to(\phi\leftrightarrow\phi')$$
My question is how will I know that some variable will occur\appear in that unknow list $y_1,y_2,...,y_k$? Doesn't this list have to have some property?
I don't understand this proposition.

A: Like most propositions, the one you quoted is intended to be true for all values of the symbols in it. In the present case, this means: For all formulas $\phi,\phi',\psi,\rho$, all natural numbers $k$, and all lists $y_1,\dots,y_k$ of $k$ variables, if the hypothesis of your proposition holds then so does the conclusion.
So you're given that the $y$'s include all the variables that are free in $\psi$ or in $\rho$ and bound in $\phi$; that's part of the hypoothesis. You're not expected to figure out what those $y$'s are.
(By the way, "bounded" in the proposition is a typo; it should be "bound".)

When the world decides to look away, after the media and journalists leave, Palestine still remains under occupation. 'Gas the Arabs' is a documentary that narrates a journey to Palestine, guided by its people and their land. The Palestinians become the narrators and protagonists. They provide an intimate and sincere insight of the Palestinian struggle and fight.
"We are trying to give voice to the people that are submerged in this situation of conflict. More than just merely informative, we wanted to film their human perspectives. Their point of view living under occupation, their families and their tragedies," Gas the Arabs Director Julio Pérez del Campo told Palestine Monitor.
The documentary focuses on the continuity of life under occupation and blockade. The modality of perpetual injustice suffered by Palestinians, after the habitual peaks of violence that attract international media attention.
A journey through the memories and stories of West Bank and Gaza, Spanish Directors Julio Pérez del Campo and Carlos Bover Martínez tried to bring Palestine's social reality into not only Spain, but the whole world.
"After the last Israeli aggression on the Gaza strip, the reality of the conflict disappeared from the media outlets. This documentary aims to portray Palestinian life after the world´s cameras have shifted their gaze elsewhere and Palestinians need to pick up the scraps to continue life," Pérez del Campo said.
Through the eyes of different Palestinian characters, the film paints a Palestinian reality in which infringements on dignity and human rights are continuous and normalised.
A completely unscripted documentary, the directors wanted to make sure that it was the Palestinian voices that shaped the progress of the documentary. The protagonist could tell their experiences about the aggressions they had received from Israel. Pérez del Campo also explained that everything they filmed was precisely what they found, without searching for the most tragic stories.
The title of the documentary was inspired by one of the noticeable graffities in a locked down Palestinian shop in Hebron. On the door, a spray paint visibly read: 'Gas the Arabs'.
In the first opening scene, the documentary provides the spectator a brutal contrast between the lives of the Israelis and the Palestinians. Just before, a disclaimer announced the images could harm the viewers sensibility.
The viewer is first taken to Hebron, to hear the testimony of a family having to co-exist and survive next to one of the West Bank's largest illegal settlements.
The second stop is in Nablus, where the testimony of two Palestinians in hospital after experiencing the brutal violence of the settlers is heard. They explain how it is to live with 4000 military soldiers 'protecting' 400 settlers.
The last stop is on the beach in the Gaza strip where Palestinian fisherman explain how it is to work in a restricted area of 6 Nautical miles.
This documentary had its world premiere on April 20 at the Atlántida Film Fest in Mallorca.
So far, the documentary has been present in several international festivals. It has received the award of Best Short Documentary in the International Festival of short films of Torrelavega. It has also won best short movie in Solidarity Film Festival of Guadalajara FESCIGU.
Pérez del Campo also stated in an interview carried out to eldiario.es that "one of the protagonists of the documentary was assassinated by the IDF six months after filming. The rest of the people interviewed for the documentary had also suffered severe consequences after the filming. This is what they have to stand in face of the passivity of the international community." He also added that he fears about the future of the people he interviewed in the documentary, people with whom they created close relationships.
This is not the first time Israel is accused of lobbying against Palestinian-related movies in film festivals. In May 2016, the Electronic Intifada revealed several Israeli lobby groups in France were applying pressure to block the screening of a Palestinian documentary. Even though, 'Munich: A Palestinian Story' by Nasri Hajjaj was eventually screened in the Cannes Film Festival.
'Foxtrot', an acclaimed drama which depicts the Israeli Army covering up the death of a Palestinian teenager, had also suffered from Israel's boycott. The embassy officials of Israel did not attend the opening event in Paris.
According to the Palestine Legal Organisation, the grounds of boycotting anything related to the Israeli occupation are based on false and inflammatory accusations of antisemitism and support for terrorism. Palestinian freedom of speech is under threat as Israel advocacy groups monitor speech and activities. Then, the Palestinian right advocates are accused by Israel of antisemitism based solely on their criticism towards Israeli policy.

Utah police officer punches through frozen pond to pull 8-year-old boy from under the ice
Posted 6:18 pm, December 25, 2017, by Lauren Steinbrecher and Rebecca Green, Updated at 09:50AM, December 27, 2017
NEW HARMONY, Utah -- A police officer punched his way through the ice of a frozen pond to pull an 8-year-old boy from under the water Monday.
Lt. David Crouse of the Washington County Sheriff's Office said emergency crews responded to a report of a child who had fallen through the ice into a pond just after 5 p.m. in New Harmony, which is south of Cedar City in southern Utah.
The pond is located near 3100 East and 2500 South.
Crouse said an 8-year-old boy was chasing a dog and fell through the ice. Another boy who was watching this happen went and tried to help the child, but was unable to get him out of the water.
At that point, the other child went for help. Sergeant Thompson with the Washington County Sheriff's Office was the first on scene, and LifeFlight along with EMS and a search and rescue dive team were on the way.
Sergeant Thompson "made the personal decision" to attempt a rescue without the use of any specialized equipment, a press release states.
After removing his police gear, Thompson went into the water and he used his arms to punch through the ice in order to create a pathway to the victim, who was about 25 feet away from the shore.
"He and another citizen were actually able to break through the ice, go into the water, and retrieve the boy out of the pond," Lt. Crouse said. "He was taken to a nearby ambulance."
LifeFlight arrived on the scene and the boy was flown to a hospital in St. George. As of about 8 p.m., the boy was still being treated but no specific details about his condition were available.
Crouse said the sergeant suffered minor cuts and abrasions on his arms while punching through the ice, and he is also being treated for symptoms of hypothermia.
The sheriff's office provided a photo of the scene along with this description: "The victim was located near the far side of the grass growing in the pond. Looking at the photograph you can see the pathway traveled by Sergeant Thompson from the shoreline, circling around the left side of the grass patch. "

Although I often get questions about my photography; what I did to teach myself, what I do to edit and the kind of equipment I carry around on my trips. So… I thought I'd share my knowledge with you!
But please, take my advice with a grain of salt. The tips I'm giving are just what works for me – I'm certainly no expert, but I love learning from people that are self-taught and very honest about their skills.
All I hope is that this will inspire you to follow your passion and realize that by absorbing a lot of information, trying your best and learning from your mistakes, you can sure as hell succeed!
Take a lot of shots!
Ask your travelling partner to take photos of you!
Out of all the travel photography tips, this is by far the most valuable one! Although a high-quality camera isn't the most important part of capturing a moment… It's obviously pretty vital!
Using your iPhone will allow you to capture beautiful scenes, there's absolutely no doubt about it… But in order to get a sharp, crisp and unique image, a DSLR is the only way to do so!
If you're just starting out, there's really no need to invest your life savings on the biggest and best camera on the market, you can 110% create a beautiful image with a body that costs only a few hundred dollars. I started out with a Nikon D3200; it was relatively cheap, small and compact and I took some of my favourite photos using it!
If you can afford it, getting a decent DSLR is the very first step to improve your travel photography.
Tip > You don't need 1000 different lenses, just a couple of versatile options that can do everything you're looking for!
You seriously never know when the opportunity for a beautiful photo will arise – Never leave your camera behind!!!
Click until your heart is content!
I honestly couldn't tell you how many times I left a location feeling unsatisfied with the 5 shots that I took… If there's one tip that you must take from this post, it's to take a LOT of shots. Don't delete any until you can have a good look on your computer and see what angles are the best!
Tip > Carry back up memory cards everywhere you go! You don't want to run out of space halfway through your journey and not be able to capture the rest of your day!
Get experimenting; get low to the ground, change your perspective, focus on the foreground, zoom in, zoom out, get up high, put something close to your lens… The list is seriously endless. Don't stop until you feel like you've captured an angle that nobody else has!
Before you start aimlessly shooting something, try to stop and picture the image before you take it – especially if it has you or someone else in it.
Picture how you want the final outcome to look, how you want your body to look and what you want the message to be. This doesn't mean that you have to spend 10 minutes thinking about every photo, just a few seconds to quickly put together what you want to achieve!
Tip > Also remember to be spontaneous too. A beautiful moment could be gone before you even had time to blink, so pick up your camera and get shooting!
If you want to capture something particular, or you know you're going to see something that's hard to capture, make sure you learn the right tricks before you go.
For example: Before I went to Iceland, I had my fingers tightly crossed that I was going to see the Aurora. I researched about what camera settings to use to photograph the Northern Lights, what equipment I needed and the best way to use the DSLR I already had.
I wrote all the notes down on my phone, with step by step guides on what to do in case I had a mental blank.
It was the best decision I ever made because as I'm sure you can see in the image below, I was able to capture the magic that my iPhone never could.
Like I just said, take down as many notes as you possibly can!
When someone gives you a tip… Jot it down! When you see a person doing something unique with their equipment… Jot it down!
There is always room for improvement so always be open to learning – taking notes is the perfect way to ensure you never forget the most valuable pieces of advice. Sometimes travel can be a little hectic, so this guarantees that you always have a point of reference if need be!
Tip > Make your notes short and sweet, but easy to understand! When you really can't remember how to change your camera settings, you want something that you'll understand when you're in a desperate rush – Make dot points and save it all on your phone. Add photo examples too, they can be a great help!
In every image, try to picture how the person viewing it will feel. If you're going to share it on social media, try to imagine how strangers will visualize the real moment. If you're simply photographing for your own personal use, try to take a picture that will make you remember the moment as if you were re-living it.
Basically, take something with a little more meaning!
When you're standing in a beautiful location, don't just take a shot of the overall landscape… Look at the small details, the vegetation, the mountains and the small details that lie around you.
Beautiful images often come from things that you wouldn't normally think of photographing. There's beauty absolutely everywhere – don't ever forget that!
Tip > Look closely, zoom in – get up close and personal with what's around you!
I wish I had known about the power of editing much much sooner. Images really do come to life once you transform and enhance the colours and tones, and there are so many ways that you can completely change how an overall image appears.
A dull, boring photo can dramatically change with the click of a few buttons!
I personally use Adobe Lightroom to edit my photos with my own custom presets, but there are a lot of free software and iPhone apps that can do a good job too. Find what works for you and stick with it!
I think one of the most valuable pieces of advice I've ever received in regards to photography, is to simply find your own style.
Whether that be wide-angle landscape shots, wildlife photography (my personal fave) or portrait shots… Forget about what everyone else is doing and focus on what you love!
If you want to get shots with you in them, ask the person you're travelling with to take the photo for you!
If you have a specific shot in mind, make sure you give them directions of what you want, set up the camera to the right settings and just ask them to press the shutter.
If you travel solo you could do the same by asking a stranger, or you can bring your own tripod and use a self-timer!
Nobody is perfect! Don't ever expect to be a professional National Geographic photographer in a day… It's taken me years and years to feel like I know what I'm doing with a camera, and I'm still very very very far from perfect.
Trying your best is the most important thing, and as long as you're happy with what you create, that's really all that matters!
Social media has become a place filled with so much beautiful travel photography that it can sometimes be a little discouraging when comparing them to your own… Always remember that photos are there to pause a moment in time.
Although they may not always be perfectly executed, remember their real purpose. Out of all of my travel photography tips, I think this one is my most important.
All photos are beautiful… Don't ever compare them to someone else's memory!
To end, I'm going to share the list of the camera equipment I carry with me on every trip. I do hope this gives you a little inspiration!
I would love to take pictures with my Canon DSLR and goPro fusion. Recently I'm coming across youtubers filming using Drones as well.
I really think DSLR cameras make a difference. Although sometimes when you can get the chance you can catch a great moment with any camera. Following travel blogs helps a lot too! Thanks a lot Kate.

Catherina Lipsius (* unbekannt; † 28. April 1918 in Sterling) war eine deutsche Unternehmerin und Vorstand der Claus Lipsius Brewery in den USA.

Biographie
Im Jahr 1853 emigrierte Catherina Claus (Name des ersten Ehemanns, Geburtsname unbekannt) mit ihrem Mann Henry Claus in die USA. Dieser gründete 1865 die Henry Claus Brewery an der 471 Bushwick Avenue in Bushwick, welche über die kommenden Jahrzehnte stetig wuchs. Gemeinsam lebten sie an 487 Bushwick Avenue, unweit von der Brauerei entfernt. Nach seinem Tod im Jahr 1872 übernahm Catherina die Leitung der Brauerei – sie war somit eine der ersten weiblichen Vorstandsvorsitzenden in der Region um New York.

Vier Jahre später heiratete sie Rudolph Lipsius, der in das Unternehmen einstieg. Die Brauerei wurde in Claus Lipsius Brewery umbenannt. Sechs Jahre später, im Jahr 1882, verstarb auch ihr zweiter Ehemann – Catherina Lipsius übernahm erneut die alleinige Leitung des Unternehmens, wurde jedoch später von ihrem Sohn Henry Claus Jr. unterstützt. Gemeinsam behaupteten sie sich noch bis 1902 als lokaler Marktteilnehmer, mussten dann jedoch dem gestiegenen Konkurrenzdruck nachgeben: Die Claus Lipsius Brewery wurde an den Lokalrivalen S. Liebmann's Sons Brewing Company verkauft.

Kurz nach der Übernahme verkaufte Lipsius ihr Haus an die zukünftige Ehefrau des Entdeckers Frederick Cook und zog gemeinsam mit ihrem Sohn Henry Jr. nach Prospect Lefferts Gardens, einem Stadtteil Brooklyns. Sie verstarb im Jahr 1918 in Sterling.

Familie
Catherina Lipsius heiratete zweimal:

 ⚭ Henry Claus (* unbekannt; † 1872)
 Henry Claus Jr.
 ⚭ Rudolph Lipsius (* unbekannt; † 1882)

Catherina Lipsius House
In den Jahren 1889–1890 ließ Catherina Lipsius für 25.000 $ eine Villa an der 670 Bushwick Avenue errichten. Verantwortlicher Architekt war der in Brooklyn renommierte Theobald Engelhardt.
Im Jahr 1902 verkaufte die Familie das Haus an den Entdecker und Arzt Frederick Cook.

Am 18. Juni 2013 wurde das Catherina Lipsius House unter Denkmalschutz gestellt. Die zuständige Kommission der Stadt New York begründete ihre Wahl mit den für den amerikanisierten Rundbogenstil charakteristischen Elementen sowie den im Stadtbild auffälligen Wohnturm. Das Catherina Lipsius House sei eine gelungene Kombination mittelalterlicher und klassischer Kombination, die es zu bewahren gelte.

John McCain buried Sunday, Sept. 2, in Annapolis, Maryland at the U.S. Naval Academy.
Corrections & clarifications: A description of the missing-man flyover formation was incorrect in an earlier version of the story.
A military flyover marked the burial of Sen. John McCain Sunday.
The missing man flyover formation aerial salute took place at about 4 p.m. as the final event in a week honoring the six-term senator from Arizona.
Four F-18 planes moved through the sky above the U.S. Naval Academy in the shape of a V before one pulled up vertically, signalizing the passing of the fallen aviator and statesman.
The formation is reserved for a funeral or memorial event for pilots and military personnel.
McCain's body arrived at the gates of the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland shortly before 11 a.m. Sunday, accompanied by family and close friends and the well wishes of hundreds of people who gathered along the motorcade route.
The funeral service and burial there were private after memorial services Thursday in Phoenix and Saturday in Washington, D.C.
Crowds gathered along the motorcade route for one final send-off. Local residents lined the roads and highway overpasses hours before the services were scheduled to begin.
Ann Hewitt, an 80-year-old Annapolis woman, stood silently with a U.S. flag in one hand and the arm of a woman at her side in the other as the motorcade passed. Hewitt's husband flew A-6 Intruder jets in Vietnam.
McCain's casket, visible in the car from the side of the road, cut through a silent crowd, which poured into the street behind the motorcade. Only after the vehicles entered the gate of the academy, the crowd erupted in applause.
McCain's family escorted his remains to Annapolis Sunday ahead of the funeral and burial.
The service was limited to the McCain family and his closest friends.
His son, Jack McCain, delivered a eulogy while wearing his father's Navy wings.
Douglas McCain, another McCain son who is a retired U.S. Navy pilot, also participated in the ceremony, as will McCain friend David Petraeus, the retired general and former CIA director, and Mark Salter, McCain's former chief of staff and longtime collaborator on books.
John McCain's U.S. Naval Academy Class of 1958, naval and military leaders, and the naval academy's current student body were also invited to the ceremony.
McCain chose to forego the the traditional choice of Arlington National Cemetery in favor of being buried in the Naval Academy cemetery near his longtime friend and fellow Admiral Chuck Larson. Larson died in 2014.
McCain meticulously planned the details of the five-day procession of memorial events, which started in Arizona and stretched to the nation's capitol.
McCain lay in state at the Arizona Capitol building on Wednesday before the memorial service at North Phoenix Baptist Church.
On Friday, McCain was one of only 31 people to have the honor of lying in state at the U.S. Capitol after a ceremony honoring his life and service.
An invitation-only memorial service was held at the Washington National Cathedral in Washington, D.C. Saturday. Speeches by his daughter, Meghan, and two former presidents — Republican George W. Bush and Democrat Barack Obama — remembered McCain as an American hero who frequently crossed party lines to stand by his beliefs.
His funeral drew 24 members of the U.S. Senate and more than 3,000 others whose lives he touched.


For many Housewives , the microwave remains material on hand for cooking or Express defrost from the freezer. And really – classical microwaves (the so-called "solo"), working only with the use of microwaves, many functions are simply not designed.
If You ever cook any (even the most simple) dish in a conventional microwave oven, then You probably already know how this thankless task. The chances of success are quite small (the result is usually very different from expected), and scrubbing the inside of the device in case of failure – consequences of cooking – takes too much time and effort.
Thus, the classic microwave oven is simply a large mono-functional Cabinet for warming up. Is this rational? – Not at all. And for small kitchens in which to place a sufficient number of home helpers of nowhere, and completely wasteful.
To extend the functionality of the microwave and make them more attractive to the Housewives, the producers equipped with a microwave oven the new chips – grill and convection. With their help, the range of possibilities has multiplied microwave, and cooking it has become much easier.
Grill all about is clear – in fact, it's Tenova or quartz heating element, which is usually located in the upper part of the microwave oven and prepared meals ensures delicious crisp.
What is convection? In fact, this thermal fan, generally located on the rear wall the microwave oven. On the shoulders of convection is entrusted with the function of pumping and circulation of hot air inside the oven, without which to achieve uniform roasting of various dishes extremely difficult.
You will be assisted by the convection feature in the microwave, how and why to use it? Read about it in our article.
From school physics course we remember that hot air is lighter than cold, and as a result, tends to concentrate in the upper part of the specified area. Therefore, no special tricks to achieve a uniform temperature over the entire area of this space is not possible.
This effect is well observed in an oven and a microwave oven in the same, when one part of the dish may have to burn (in the oven usually "burns" on the bottom, and microwave the top), and the second to be treacherously wet. In this case, the convection comes to help us forcibly dispensing a flow of hot air.
The list of dishes, which perfectly does microwave oven with convection feature, wide enough. It is already possible to cook everything from baked meat, fish and vegetables to soups, side dishes and homemade pastries. By the way, baking is not worse than in a regular oven, and for most Housewives, it is fundamentally important.
Another important advantage is the speed of cooking. Compared to classic cooking (on the hob or in the oven), dishes in the microwave are almost 2 times faster. Agree, today it is very important and resources are allocated more rationally, and cooking time takes less.
Besides, a small (relative to the same oven), the volume of the microwave allows you to cook small portions. If You are expecting guests and You just have to cook dinner for the family, use this microwave oven with convection is much easier, faster and more economical.
To ensure uniform cooking on all sides and to create a so-called three-dimensional effect, use a special stand on legs in the form of a lattice. Usually they are equipped with microwave ovens with convection. This will allow preparing the Goodies faster and more evenly.
Be sure to use heat-resistant dishes of glass, ceramic, clay or silicone. The convection mode in microwave "sprints" to 200⁰С, therefore, to put products, out of habit, heat-resistant plastic is impossible.
To give the dish a crispy Golden brown, use a combined mode with a grill. By the way, the combination of grill and convection allows you to reduce the cooking time by about 15-20 minutes.
If You're cooking a pie or a cake, to bake cakes better than one, but not entirely all the dough. This applies to any meals that you can prepare a portion – the smaller the volume of products, the faster and more evenly they will be baked.
Many Housewives are wondering – can a microwave with convector completely replace the oven? To replace, most likely, will not replace, but definitely a decent alternative will be offered. Especially if Your kitchen is small and place it in a spacious oven simply is not possible.
It can be assumed that the small usable volume of a microwave oven is a minus, but actually this judgment is very individual. For small families it is rather a plus – it is optimal to prepare food in small portions, consumption of electricity is more reasonable and moreover, the device occupies less space.
The main feature of these microwaves is the versatility and speed that the modern pace of life valued highly enough. And the only drawback convection microwave ovens – a high cost. If it is, of course, can be called a disadvantage when opportunities are offered along with the device.

Beware of the ejector seat!
Jumped into a pug the other day to go do the weekly raid (Flame Leviathon FTW!) and one of the members has the 2-man rocket. It's odd to have someone else flying you around. One thing to keep in mind, they have a ejector seat button on their vehicle bar. Just to show it off, he kicked me out about 3ft of the ground outside of Ulduar.
