Tuesday's Den: 13 of my all-time favorite TV shows…….
13 of my favorite TV shows (in alphabetical order):
— Batman— When you're six years old, and in the opening credits every week, they show "WHAP!!! POW!!! BIFF!!!" and your name is Biff, this quickly becomes a favorite show.
The villains were some pretty big stars back then (Burgess Meredith, Cesar Romero, Milton Berle, Vincent Price, Liberace, Ethel Merman)
I haven't seen much of the Batman movies that have been made over the years, but the TV show had some humor; one week there was a 3-foot Martian on the loose in Gotham City, and Robin blurts out "Holy interplanetary yardstick, Batman!!!" Good stuff.
— Billions— Showtime series about a hedge fund manager who pushes the boundaries of the law while his marriage falls apart. His arch-enemy is a prosecutor in NYC who is into S&M and his wife is his dominatrix— the wife is also the psychiatrist for the hedge fund manager's company.
Small world. This show is really well-written- the next season will probably run after football season.
Trivia: Paul Giamatti plays the prosecutor; he is the son of former baseball commissioner Bart Giamatti. I suggested a cameo role for Pete Rose, but so far, that hasn't happened.
— CSI— I spent a good chunk of my work career searching fingerprints and working for the NY State Division of Criminal Justice, so I enjoyed all the CSI shows, but especially the one set in Las Vegas— the actors seemed to have a chemistry working together.
One of my weirder ideas (a teacher friend of mine scoffed at this) is that CSI should be taught to all high school kids, so they realize how difficult it is to get away with crimes, so maybe there would be fewer crimes. What could it hurt?
— Green Acres— As a kid, I spent lot of hours watching Green Acres re-runs; my dad would walk into the room, say "Why the hell are you watching that?", but within five minutes, he'd be sitting there laughing harder than me and would leave the room before my mother came in and saw the both of us laughing. She wasn't a big fan of Hank Kimball or Arnold Ziffel.
— Law and Order— 20 years, 456 episodes, a great launching point for lot of acting careers, not to mention the spinoff shows that branched off this original show.
Take Billions; there are 32 actors who have appeared in 12+ episodes of Billons; 14 of those 32 actors appeared in at least one episode of Law and Order, and two others were in Law and Order SVU, and that doesn't count Eric Bogosian, who was in Law and Order: Criminal Intent for 61 episodes, but was only in 10 episodes of Billions (so far).
— Magnum PI— I've never been to Hawai'i, but if I ever went, would like to visit Robin Masters' estate; I'm told you can visit there, it is kind of a museum or something.
One of the best episodes was when Frank Sinatra played a retired New York City cop whose granddaughter was murdered— this was near the end of both the series and Sinatra's career.
The overriding themes of the show were that great friends will do all kinds of stuff for each other, and if you're really good looking and drive a Ferrari, women will like you 🙂
— M*A*S*H— Years later, after watching re-runs of this show on our local channel 10 and the Boston channel for hours at a time, it dawned on me that this was actually a very sad show, with humor/jokes masking the grotesque sadness of wartime Korea.
The McLean Stevenson episodes were the best; he was Colonel Henry Blake for the first 75 episodes, and a lot of them were classics, just funny as hell.
— Mr Ed— This show ran on network TV from 1961-66, so I never saw it until the re-runs came on at 4:30 weekdays on a local channel in the early 70's. Mr Ed was a talking horse, but he only talked to Wilbur Post, an architect who worked at home but never actually seemed to work.
Mr Ed was a big Dodger fan; his favorite player was OF Willie Davis. In one episode, the horse takes batting practice against Sandy Koufax, and hits a ball off the wall at Dodger Stadium, with the bat held in his mouth. A fun show, not necessarily a realistic one.
— Odd Couple— As a kid, Oscar Madison was one of my heroes; a sportswriter who always spilled food on his clothes but was a good natured guy who somehow dated a doctor or one of the Pidgeon sisters.
To this day when I see my cousin's husband, we recite lines from Odd Couple episodes; when they owned a greyhound racing dog , or appeared on Password (a game show), or when Oscar dated a princess from some obscure European country "You bought her a salty pretzel; oh, boy!!!" Great stuff.
— Ray Donovan— The most violent program on this list; just about everybody on this Showtime series that isn't related to the Donovans eventually winds up dead.
Ray Donovan is a fixer for rich people, but he can't fix his own family; his wife passes away from cancer, and the last time we saw him, he was still struggling with that.
Live Schreber plays Ray, Jon Voight plays his father (a genuine creep); they've had guest stars like Susan Sarandon, James Woods, Wendell Pierce, Hank Azaria. Alan Alda, C Thomas Howell.
Very good show but also very violent.
— Suits— This show is winding down its last season on USA Network; it is about a law firm that hired a young guy with a photographic memory who had one small problem— he is a college dropout who never went to law school, but he gets paid to take bar exams for other people.
The show had to change directions because one of the actresses (Meghan Markle) moved to England after she married Prince Harry in real life. Her character was married to Mike (the fraudulent lawyer) so they got written out of the last couple years of the show.
— West Wing— Martin Sheen plays the President in this show; his cabinet included Rob Lowe, Allison Janney, Richard Schiff, John Spencer— great cast.
Actor Duke Hill was in both West Wing and Suits; Mary Louise Parker was in this and is also in Billions. Alan Alda was in this, Ray Donovan and of course, M*A*S*H
Jimmy Smits, Mary MacCormack, Tim Matheson, Gary Cole, just a ton of excellent actors.
In one episode, President Bartlet has to throw out the first pitch at an Orioles' game, but he never played ball, so one of his aides has to teach him how to throw a baseball in a hallway in the White House, where an errant toss breaks an expensive vase.
— White Shadow— Ken Howard plays a washed-up NBA player who becomes a high school basketball coach in Los Angeles. Show only lasted three years, because well, high school kids graduate so they would've had to turn most of the cast over every other year.
The basketball scenes were really well-done; Gwyneth Paltrow's father was the creator of the show. Lot of the issues they tackled in this show were issues that real high school in the inner city had to deal with. Ken Howard was great as Coach Reeves; he wasn't some all-knowing guy; he had flaws but he fought for his kids and they respected him for it (most of the time).

Police: Common red flags for rental scams in Eagle County
News News | Nov 27, 2022
Ash Lohmann
alohmann@vaildaily.com
Following scammer infiltration of the rental housing market, Vail Police suggest renters-to-be remain cautious of potential scams.
Bret Hartman/Special to the Vail Daily
Most Eagle County residents are aware of the monumental struggle that has become the local search for housing. Many renters are now becoming all too familiar with an array of scammers attempting to take advantage of an already slim housing market at the expense of scrambling residents-to-be. Vail Police suggest those on the housing hunt take caution.
For quick, free and easy access to the local rental market, it's clear why many potential renters take to sites like Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace or VRBO. A new dream winter rental, someone's very first apartment, a rental with room for the whole family can all be at one's fingertips through websites like these. However, disguised among the legitimate housing options are fraudulent listings with scheming scammers on the other side of the screen.
Vail Police Department detective Greg Schwartz suggested potential renters take caution while on the hunt for their next home. He said that identifying red flags is an important way people can protect themselves from scammers.
Red flag one: No in-person viewing
Red flag number one? Schwartz said not being able to physically see the property can be a big indication of a scam.
"There are absentee landlords, but not as many as you'd really think," Schwartz said.
He explained that in many cases, fraudulent landlords will deny renters an in-person showing of the property, saying it's currently occupied. Despite this, scammers can convince aspiring renters to send money in order to "secure the space" for their move-in.
Schwartz said that recently, a case came to the Vail Police Department with a similar type of scam. In this situation, the scammer had even provided the prospective renter a local address, so he could drive by to view the property despite its occupancy.
"So, when he went to move in, a neighbor said, 'Oh no, that place isn't for rent. I know the owners and I know the people who live there and yeah, they're not renting it out,' and it was kind of a shock," Schwartz said.
The detective advised against sending money to any projected landlord without an in-person viewing of the property.
"Really, truly, if you're not able to see the property, it's a scam," Schwartz said. "And by 'see the property,' I mean 'enter the property,' not just pictures."
With populations flocking to Eagle County for the winter, Schwartz said scammers are largely targeting people who are coming to the valley from elsewhere and might not even be able to physically view a property anyway. He explained that in these situations, renters must be extra careful to verify a rental property's legitimacy before sending hard-earned money someone else's way.
Schwartz said writing a check to a physical local address or having someone meet a landlord or property manager at the site are good ways to legitimize the transaction.
Red flag two: Suspicious payment requests
Another red flag that Schwartz warned those looking for rental properties about is the landlord's preferred payment method. Payment methods that allow a recipient to remain more anonymous should raise renters' caution, he said.
"What (the scammers) do is they advertise the property and then they require payment only either through Zelle or a direct wire transfer to a bank account," Schwartz said. "Usually, the bank accounts that those deposits are going into have been opened fraudulently and the money is then transferred out pretty quickly."
It's possible for law enforcement to track where a deposit goes once it is sent to a potential scammer, but Schwartz said the process is rather difficult. In an attempt to remain untraceable, scammers typically bounce money around from account to account.
"We write a search warrant for the first account and yep, that money was there for three days and then it's transferred to another account," Schwartz said. "That can kind of go on and on for a while."
After tracking funds from account to account, Schwartz explained that oftentimes, the money finally lands in a bank account with a foreign IP address. Because local police do not have the jurisdiction to write search warrants to foreign banks, the detective said searches typically fizzle once money hits a foreign bank account.
Another payment method Schwartz warned renters about are gift cards. Many scammers, in an effort to remain even more untraceable, request that renters send their payments via gift card. Schwartz said this request should be considered an immediate red flag.
"No real landlord is going to require 10 Best Buy gift cards for rent, you know," Schwartz said.
Schwartz said renters seeking housing need to use their better judgment and understand what requests seem legitimate and what requests might tip off a scam. Things not completely adding up is another red flag Schwartz advised renters to be wary of.
Red flag three: Dissonance
An example of things not adding up with a landlord could be name consistency, Schwartz said.
"A lot of the time when a fraudulent landlord is requesting Zelle payments or wire transfers to bank accounts, the names don't match whatever name they've been emailing back and forth with—it doesn't match the information being provided," Schwartz said. "So, that should be a significant red flag any potential tenant should look out for."
Finding inconsistencies like names not adding up across accounts can take a keen eye. A media release from the Vail Police Department said that scammers targeting Eagle County renters are doing whatever they can to make themselves seem more legitimate and get sent money. For example, securing a local burner number may be enough to fool a prospective tenant.
"Many scammers use a local phone number generated by web-based Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) services that are available to anyone without any verification of identity required," the release read. "Officers have taken several complaints initiated via a Craigslist ad which resulted in prospective renters wiring money to scammers."
Rental red flag four: It's too good to be true
The final red flag Schwartz warns against is when a listing simply seems too good to be true. Perhaps the cost is hundreds or maybe thousands lower than similar properties in the area, maybe it's the fact that they'd allow five dogs without question or maybe it's a location so desirable that it seems strange to even have a shot at it. Regardless, dreams of the perfect rental can come shattering to reality when scammers are in the mix.
"If it seems too good to be true, it is," Schwartz said.
Renting online may seem much more intimidating with scammers attempting to take advantage of an already difficult market. However, Schwartz said law enforcement is always available to help. Whether it's the Vail Police Department or another law enforcement agency in the valley, Schwartz said officers would be happy to review property advertisements and landlord interactions to see if they can spot anything "fishy."
Schwartz said officers can help renters try to spot red flags among listings and help them determine how to move forward.
"We're always available to help," Schwartz said. "If anyone has questions before they send that money, and in general, you know, no one should be sending money to someone they don't know or haven't met or haven't spoken to."
Precaution in situations like finding rentals is crucial, Schwartz said.
"I think a lot of it is driven by the housing shortage that we have," Schwartz said. "People are willing to go for something too good to be true, which is obviously unfortunate that we're going through that valley-wide."
While many may struggle to remove their rose-colored glasses when it comes to scam rental listings, it may be helpful to remember that law enforcement success in catching culprits of rental housing scams is incredibly slim.
Scammers tapping into the local housing market are typically not from around here, Schwartz said.
"A lot of these scams are international, you know, just kind of like the Nigerian prince scam from back in the day," Schwartz said.
The "Nigerian prince scam" that Schwartz referred to is a popular version of the ancient "Spanish prisoner swindle," both advance-fee scams, which involve scammers approaching recipients and convincing them to send money in order to retrieve an even larger sum of money, which of course, is never retrieved or returned. According to CNBC, the "Nigerian prince scam" still yields over $700,000 for scammers annually.
Schwartz said scammers across oceans can be successful in taking locals' money because they have done their research. He said they likely understand that the valley is a housing hotspot and know people may be willing to go to further odds for what they think will be their future housing.
Similarly, with a little extra effort, Schwartz explained how scammers make their listings seem more believable.
"Typically, the person renting out the apartment fraudulently will take over somebody else's post, or they'll get pictures from Zillow so it adds a level of legitimacy to it," Schwartz said. "They'll pull maps and pictures and things like that. It's all stuff that's available on the internet."
With the large sums of money rental scammers are dealing with, Schwartz said even one potential renter taking the bait after publishing hundreds of ads can end up being worth the effort for the accomplishment of defrauding somebody.
Despite the fact that they are typically difficult to catch, scammers are not impossible to identify. Schwartz said the Vail Police Department has successfully solved a couple of scammer cases. Without the scammers living locally, however, he explained that the consequences are elusive.
"I was able to write an arrest warrant and had probable cause to write an arrest warrant for a girl who was doing this out of Texas," Schwartz said. "Whether or not she'll be arrested and brought back here to Colorado, that's very unlikely and even if she is arrested, getting the money back is also very unlikely."
Victims of scams can attempt to get reimbursed for the money they lost through the restitution process in the courts, however, Schwartz said total reimbursement is uncommon.
"I think something that some of these tenants need to keep in mind is that with fraud, the chance of getting the money back is very slim, even if we're able to determine who the offender is," Schwartz said.
Reporting a rental scam
If those searching for rental properties encounter listings with multiple red flags for scam potential, Schwartz said reporting the listing to law enforcement is often a good idea.
He also suggested people report the email addresses of scammers to the FBI-operated collection database for fraudulent activity.
"Their analysts collect and evaluate all this data and that's how the FBI is able to try and track some of the stuff on a more international level," Schwartz said.
The database can be accessed at http://www.ic3.gov. To reach the Vail Police Department, call 970-479-2201.

Hasenhüttl shouldn't be judged by the 9-0 defeats
It is always interesting how a result or two can define a player or manager's career. There are entire football teams that are defined by just one result and it is an extremely reactionary and unfair situation as football is a sport that can be judged that way. And the current situation with Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhüttl is a prime example of that, with his legacy at St. Mary's most likely being two awful 9-0 defeats. But there is a lot more to understand about the current boss of the Saints.
Manchester United beat Southampton 9-0 this week. It was an awful result for the Saints and an awful reminder of the 9-0 defeat they had to endure against Leicester City last season. Ralph Hasenhüttl has become the first Premier League manager to lose two games by that result and unless a massive overachievement, there is a very good chance that he is going to be remembered for those results. And I think that is very unfair.
The Austrian manager joined Southampton back in the middle of the 2018/19 season, but he didn't implement his signature playing style until the middle of last season, specifically after losing 9-0 against Leicester. He threw away the 5-3-2 formation they were using and started to rely on his trusted 4-2-2-2 system that made him so successful at RB Leipzig.
Often compared to Jürgen Klopp, you can understand the comparison when you see the great year the Saints had in 2020, both in terms of performances and results: Southampton were not only getting a lot of positive results, but they were also playing intense, fast-paced and dynamic football, which is a trademark of a Hasenhüttl team, becoming one of the most exciting clubs in the league.
In terms of pressing, they have been one of the top three teams in that category in the last year or so and their set pieces are some of the strongest in Europe, led by the wonderful talents of James Ward-Prowse. It is a very compact and efficient, which is not as filled with talent as other Southampton squads in recent years.
And yet, the 9-0 defeats would probably be Hasenhüttl's legacy simply because they got the most attention in the press and social media, which is doing the man a disservice. The 9-0 defeat against United came at the back of weeks of exhaustion and losing four or five key players plus getting a man sent off in the first minute of the game. It was an awful performance by Southampton, of course, but one where context is extremely important to consider.
Ralph Hasenhüttl has done a remarkable job with very little at St. Mary's and he deserves a chance at a bigger club come the end of the season. And 9-0 defeats notwithstanding, his legacy at Southampton should be greater than that.

Lethal former Owls striker Derek Dooley is the penultimate player in the Sheffield Wednesday Dream Scene.
Dooley scored an astonishing 63 goals in 63 games for Wednesday between 1947 and 1953 before tragic circumstances led to the native Sheffielder having his right leg amputated, putting an end to his playing career.
He went on to manage the Owls between 1971 and 1973 before a long term affiliation with Sheffield United - including a stint as chairman - made Dooley an icon on both sides of the Steel City.
He was awarded an MBE in the 2003 New Year's honours list for his services to football.
Dooley becomes the 14th player in the fantasy dressing room painting which artist Jamie Cooper will be revealing at the Owls' 150th anniversary dinner next Monday, 4 September.
There is just one more player to go in the Sheffield Wednesday Dream Scene, so keep a close eye out in the build-up the anniversary dinner next Monday!


"Christina Johnstone"– Alberta native Tricia was discovered at age 17 and has also modeled for Chanel and Victoria's Secret. She is best known for her leading roles on Battlestar Galactica, The Firm, Tron, Green Lantern: First Flight and ABC's Killer Women. In 37, Tricia delivers a heartbreaking performance as "Christina", the overprotective older sister who does not approve of the rocker "Adam".


Publications exploring the use of DWI for evaluation of pancreatic disease are limited in number and scope. However, the value of DWI in various pancreatic conditions continues to be explored and available results suggest that there will likely be a niche for this technique in the clinic. Available studies have shown that the measured ADC values of the normal pancreatic glandular parenchyma on DWI vary considerably and are determined by factors such as age, the anatomic portion of the gland, and magnet field strength. Normal pancreas has significantly higher mean ADC than pancreatic cancer or mass-forming pancreatitis. Furthermore, proper use of DWI may aid in the differentiation of focal pancreatitis from ductal adenocarcinoma. Besides, in patients with known pancreatic cancer, the benefits of DWI include improved characterization of enlarged lymph nodes, detection of peritoneal carcinomatosis, and detection of distant (such as hepatic) metastases. It is also possible that ADC measurements can be used as a quantitative tool for predicting and monitoring tumor response. There is some data that supports the use of DWI for characterizing and determining the significance of pancreatic cystic lesions. There is still very little published scientific data to support the use of DWI in the gallbladder and biliary tract, although cholangiocarcinoma exhibits diffusion restriction, which is helpful for separating the lesion from the surrounding hepatic parenchyma, and neoplastic and inflammatory diseases of the gallbladder can also be evaluated with MR.


JEE Main is one of the toughest entrance exams and is very important when it comes to getting an admission in one of the prestigious colleges of the nation such as IITs and NIITs. The cut-off scores for JEE Main exams, play a very vital role in deciding the fate of the students. It is on the basis of these scores that these students will get the admission in these esteemed colleges and the branches of their choice. JEE Main 2019 cutoff refers to the minimum score a student must secure to qualify the exam and make it to its Merit List.
The rank of the students is decided on the basis of the scores that they have got in the exam and the last rank that is there on the list is considered as cut-off rank. All the students who score less than the cut-off rank will not be eligible for admission in any of the participating colleges. All India Ranks are declared using the pre-decided formula, where 60% of score is calculated on the basis of student's JEE scores and 40% weightage is given to their normal scores in 12th Board exams.
Students can refer to the cut-off scores for JEE Main exams 2019 to calculate which college and branch they can expect to get enrolled in. The cut-off scores for this year's JEE Main can be expected on the basis of JEE Main 2018 exams results. Students will be able to download Score Card or Rank Card after declaration of the AIR of students. Different lists will be declared for Category-wise Cutoff for JEE Main 2019. Students targeting reserved category seats and those who are competing for open seats should refer to the cutoff list of their category.
Number of seats they have in different courses.
College-level cutoff lists are declared for each round of admission conducted to fill up the vacant seats. Hence, students have to qualify JEE Main first by scoring more than the declared cutoffs and then, should score more than the declared cutoffs for engineering colleges they are targeting and their courses to get admission.

Grad on the go: Trey Mitchell
By: Kali Thiel, Strategic Communications October 2, 2018
This story first appeared in the fall 2018 issue of the Concordian, the official magazine of Concordia University Wisconsin.
When Trey Mitchell announced last spring his decision to run for Sheboygan's 9th district aldermanic seat, he initially received a few raised eyebrows.
Mitchell, who was 22 at the time, didn't let it slow him down. He wasn't going to let the fact that he was less than a year out of college deter his passion for public service.
In April 2018, he won the vote and became the youngest alderman in Sheboygan history—or at least he's believed to be the youngest since the mid-1800s, the earliest available records in the city's annals.
The response to his victory has been well received, says Mitchell. Apart from a few good-natured jokes about him being younger than some aldermen's grandchildren, his age was hardly even addressed at his first Common Council session.
"I went into it thinking I would have to make a really strong case for why I would be qualified for this position despite my age," says Mitchell. "I was pleasantly surprised to find it wasn't necessary. I think most people really liked the idea of a newer perspective coming in."

Mitchell, who graduated from Concordia in May 2017 with a bachelor's degree in computer science and a minor in political science, says his interest in politics began at Concordia after his freshman year roommate turned him on to former President George W. Bush's autobiography, "Decision Points."
"I initially came into Concordia feeling that politics was bigger than me," Mitchell says. "I have a pretty antithetical view from that now. I can see now how important politics is to us in our everyday lives. It's definitely not too large. If you want to get involved, you really can make a difference."
Throughout his four years at Concordia, Mitchell took on an assortment of leadership positions: he served as a resident assistant and chief student officer for Concordia's Student Government Association, and he started Concordia's first intercollegiate ultimate Frisbee team.
In addition to his city government duties, he currently works as a programmer at Acuity. "I think if there's one piece of advice I've gathered from my experience it's this: If you're passionate about something, you should never let doubt or the obstacles in your way stop you from pursuing it," says Mitchell.
That advice has clearly worked in his favor.

Mission minded: the Kegley brothers
Double the love


The time has come to give you some precisions on all the accusations that has befallen our apostolate in Australia, despite the efforts we have made to reach you in these last two years.
At the same time, as no cross comes alone usually, the Australian immigration is denying Fr Picot s entry. Perhaps it is just a coincidence, but as the precedent of Bishop Williamson indicates, or that of the Pfeiffer brothers in India, this type of incident happens often by denunciation.
Fr MacDonald has accepted to fill up the gap until these issues are resolved and the normal trips of Fr Picot can resume. It is an irony that a group of people from Melbourne was tasked to work on the definitive solution for this. Hence others will have to be found.
In the meantime i have to repay Fr McDonald in equivalent priestly time, so i am flying to Ireland from Holy Week to the Good Shepherd Sunday. Same thing next Summer.
I will test the border in Sydney in May, then rent or borrow a car, and follow the footsteps of fr Cummins and McDonald by traveling overland, a good occasion to realize its beauty, and to save you the trouble of fattening the duopoly of Quantas and Virgin.
If this fails, then i will start having suspicions. Unlike inspector Cluseau, who said "i suspect everybody becoze everybody is a suspect"... i refuse to accuse.
Moreover, i would like to inform you, dear Faithful, that my biggest worry in Australia, is not the activities of the Melbourne committee, but the lack of vocations for the seminary, which means that Australia will continue to depend on visiting priests for a long time. But the experience is that only the Cross is the best seed of vocations, and our troubles to reach you will ultimately bear the fruits we long for.
Then, if we come to Australia, it is not because of any desire for luxury, as we are busy already in Japan, Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Nueva Ecija, Cavite, Batangas, Legazpi, Masbate, Iloilo, Ormoc, Hindang, Maasin, Danao, LLC, Cebu proper, Dagohoy, Camiguin, Cagayan, Valencia, Illigan and Zamboanga. Nevertheless, giving Dogma one and Dogma two, Moral theology, Canon Law, Scripture (coming soon), Acts of the Magisterium, Philosophy (six courses), spiritual conferences, Liturgy is in fact more tiring that missionary visits.
We do acknowledge the great generosity of our Australian benefactors, yet most of our donations do come from elsewhere, with this year one major benefactor in France and another one, a Filipino, bailed us totally from the heavy expenses of our attempts to save Fr Suelo s health.
was declared unilaterally, in the absence of Fr Picot, during Fr Suneel's round of first masses. It's stated purpose is the taking charge of the apostolate in Melbourne, something we never experienced before. Fr Picot was expecting a committee, but in order to create a legal person capable to vouch for his permanent visa, so he told me, but there came a sort of Parish Council with the difference that the novus ordo priest was not even invited.
Any interference of the priests in the decisions of the committee is deemed illegal and abusive. The priest is an employee of the Committee who administers the monies and calls any priest it chooses for spiritual matters. Then a newsletter got published expressing this intent and relaying other attacks against the bishop, or yours truly and his good terms with Fr Kramer.
Father Picot tried to listen to the group on January 2nd, and was questioned for three hours, and Marianne Youngman was asked to step down, which she did immediately.
The tone was respectful all along, no tempers were lost.
Basically Fr Picot was told that he cannot be trusted any longer (neither me, nor Bishop Williamson), that priests cannot be trusted any longer after the multiple betrayals of the last fifty years, and it is time for he laypeople to take over and run the operations. Father asked if there was anything precise that was found really wrong in his behavior and his teaching and was not able to obtain any precise information.
My understanding is that the Committee wants to retain the whole arrangement and set up of the Resistance chapel in Melbourne, and perhaps in the rest of Victoria. They said "whatever is not purely the Faith and moral advice". The congregation owns everything, Chalice, Church, venues, monies, flights, timing of Masses. By right, the material determination of Mass and Sacraments belongs to the Committee. The priest comes in, does his job within the limits of the mandate given to him by the people (represented by the Committee), and preaches what teaching the community requires, distributes sacraments and receives a stipend for his troubles. The entire rest is in the hands of the elected board of the Committee. A member told Fr Picot, more or less "All the material things of the parish are managed by the lay Committee, to which the priest is allowed to present suggestions, and in the case it is reasonable, the Committee could consider it". The priests are incapable to preside Committee or take them over and to intend to do so is an offense.
If we read the mission statements and the bulletins, the Committee is clear: it is the Committee that decides which priest comes in, and fires him if necessary. Fr Picot was ordered:"We order you that you order the Bishop to put order in the Resistance" (OLSC#1). The priest must be prevented from "building his little empire, his little likes, his little world.
To prove the new order of things, and being unsatisfied with Fr Picot's attitude, the Committee then unbooked the hall for the Sunday January 3rd mass and informed everybody that the Mass is cancelled for unforeseen reasons. For us it is the proof that the Committee uses the material to control the apostolate and the doctrinal content of our predication.
Another irony is that we asked the Melbourne people to start a committee... to start a school. But perhaps such demand is also illegal for priests to make.
We simply acknowledged the failure of the xspx in Tynong, where the original independent school became entangled into government and rotarian money and thrown under the bus of modern programs, state appointed teachers and other problems.
Streched as we are we cannot do anything, and we are not qualified enough, hence our appeal to the lay arm, because for the Melbourne area, this is the best way to break through.
For my part i told these people that Father Picot is totally innocent and that i am totally unaware that things are run that way in the Catholic Church, as Canon Law explicitly states that clerics should administer entirely Church property without lay interference. (For more details, please consult Cardinal Ottaviani celebrated "Institutiones Iuris Publici Ecclesiae").
That does not mean that we cannot delegate, as we do in Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth etc., but the mind of the Church is not to relegate the priests in the sole domain of the Sacristy. Archbishop Lefebvre opposed such mentality in the "Renaissance Catholique" crisis in France in 1989, and i witnessed the whole affair as a young seminarian at the time.
In the meantime, as we were thrown on the street, it is obvious that we had recourse to the laypeople to provide the mass venues and assist us materially.
Where did request people to hand us over their private property?
Unlike the xspx, our policy is never to ask, but to get ever more by thanking. And so we did to our own contender's own admission.
And are we forbidden to accept donations, legacies as the masons argue? Or is such acceptance to be interpreted as empire building.
For my part; and the fact that the seminary premisses not being legally in our hands is a proof of it; i am more in favor of devolution at all levels, and not centralised accumulation wich, again, is the undoing of the xspx. But most of our resistance confreres own their own residences and key venues, like Fr Ringrose, fr McDonald and Ballini in Ireland, the Dominicans, Fr Rioult, Fr Valan in India. This is a natural process, but it has not yet happened to us. I think they picked the wrong target.
Perhaps i should defer the Committee to the judgement of the Bishop, but they don't like any we have. If i did, Bishop Williamson would probably decree the following:"Perhaps it would be interesting to wonder if we could propose these poor people to consider kindly if they would like to apologize for their horrible conduct with Fr Picot."
The bottom line is that they are punishing themselves, by cutting the hand that feeds them. Fr McDonald and myself were sent quickly to the gallows for supporting "the wrong Fr Picot horse", with cherry on top Fr Kramer, whose friendship i entertain make me a suspect of sedevacantism. Fr Kramer still declares that his opinion is just that, a difficult matter on which the debate is still going on, and indeed i disagree with Fr Kramer, but he is not making a whole religion out of it. If he has interesting points, what am i to do? Anyways, if you want to blackmail me with the sedevacantism scarecrow, good luck to you. It works on Bishop Fellay and liberal latin mass people, but not on the Resistance. We will follow carefully what demolition job is taking place in Rome. Fr Kramer has plenty of other merits. Fr Ortiz is already condemned, because he warned against the committee in advance, and i wonder what is going to befall Fr Valan who agrees with us and Fr Suneel who might confess that he was made use in Fr Picot's absence.
I don't like the mentality to record Fr Picot without his permission and post him without permission, dissecting his words as mr Macchabbees (pompoussish name if you ask me), to prove the world that Fr Picot is a liberal. Anybody who knows Fr Picot knows he is no liberal,.... other defects perhaps, but not worth mentioning on dying blogs.
Mr Macchabbees should ask permission before releasing private material. If he wants to take me on the issue of Fr Kramer, why not ask permission to publish my private reply to him, or simply use the Miles Christi #XI, where i say pretty much the same thing i said to him privately. If these gentlemen want to fight us, i can understand, but there are rules in War. Perhaps they should be patient, because every time i come down under, i give talks and take questions, whose reply i accept to get published upon request. And there is no need to make such a show of one's ignorance in public: alter reportedly means "The other of the two, second", hence sedealterism means not that the see is altered, but that the see of Peter belongs to the other of the two, Benedict, and not to Caiphas Francis, the frontman. Alter has a different meaning in English, but am i to blame for preferring latin to vernacular, especially when latin enables us to distinguish betwixt sedeprivationnism and sedeprivationism for instance. For the next sede avatar i have my latin artillery locked and loaded.
Yet it is true that the neoromans are trying to alter the see itself, and both Fr Kramer and I agree that this is a much graver problem that the one to find out which of the two is on the see now.
It looks like somebody tries to turn the Resistance against itself, turning the energy of the fight against the liberal xspx against the resistance priests, like Greg Taylor is doing in his Recusant, that used to be so good of yore. Very simple: anybody who does not dissociate with Bishop Williamson for the erroneous comments he has made is a liberal, a traitor or just a coward.
But the good Bishop has tripped in the past. Why now? Why resurface his belief in Maria Valtorta for instance?
He is better as what he does than at what he says, and handsome means what handsome does.
The words of Bishop Tissier are above reproach for the most, but not his silence and inaction. What is the use of and engine if there is no gearbox to send the intellectual power of the engine to the wheels of action?
so the Committee argues, is betraying the resistance and we priests are betting on the wrong horse. Question, then: Which other bishop should we place ourselves under?
I'd rather stick to the dino, and just watched again his interview on the holocaust on youtube, back in 2009, and compare it with the total disaster of Bishop Fellay recent interview on Conflict Zone. The contrast could not be greater. And now bishops Galarreta and Tissier are following suit.
Fr Pfeiffer is not very happy at bishop Williamson, and his constant rants on youtube may have precipitated events in the little glass of Melbourne, but there is a huge difference between menzingrad and Broadstairs. Back in 2012 i went to see Bishop Fellay in Menzingen, and I urged fr Joe to do the same, telling him that it was a big mistake for him not to do so. It is a disagreeable experience, but there you can see the whole difference between a man who makes a doctrinal error and a profound liberal, a man who lapses and a revolutionist, a man who trips while looking for the truth, a complex one at that, and a man whose love of the truth is mush.
I sat there, for an hour and a half, telling the man in his face his errors, and his exact wordings. "I did not say that!" "You are twisting my words." "I was talking to the American public on Religious Liberty". All this coming with a typical attitude accusing us to be bad for objecting to the aforesaid errors, that our notion of the Church is completely wrong, that we are evil of heart, disobedient, rebellious... basically that the Guillotine is ours. Fr Picot had the same experience. I am glad i insisted to have him go to Menzingen to see for himself Revolution in action.
No such a thing with Bishop Williamson: "yes, i said it" "but perhaps i am wrong" "tell me why" "what is your take"... he even emailed me "I ll try to do better next time". And instead of throwing us out, the way we were literally thrown on the streets, he gets thrown out alongside with us.
I not happy at Fr Joe, not because his ranting is rattling the little boat, no. We will manage the situations he is creating, and the Melbourne Committee is not that big, neither gaining a lot of traction. I am sad he does not realize that while we were chilling for twelve years, our poor Bishop had to face all the jellyfish maneuvering of Menzingrad, almost alone, completely boxed in in Wimbledon, after having been unceremoniously demoted twice and publicly disavowed before the medias, his confreres way before our little show of 2012.
Heroism is there, carrying this cross for twelve years, seeing the whole work of one s life and the whole work of the Archbishop being thrown into liberal effeminacy: that desire to conform to the world under spiritual and supernatural pretenses. And he ended alone, put away, exactly as Bishop Fellay told Frank (Tim Sebastian) on Conflict Zone. The ordeal is over now, but it was long and painful.
Of course we lament such expressions as "go to the novus ordo mass if it is good for your faith", but, wait a minute, why should we deny the dino the benefit of the doubt when we gave it to bishop Fellay?
In 2007 we did not sing the Te Deum for the Motu Proprio, nor did we like the exuberant gratitude of Menzingen for the "lifting of the excommunications" (Bp Fellay now openly admits he indeed was excommunicated...), nor the worrying signs of liberal mellowing, but we carried on with Bishop Fellay, expressing our dissent with discretion. Fr Ceriani condemned such discretion in the same way Fr Pfeiffer condemns the same discretion with Bishop Williamson. Aren't we not supposed to try to correct things in private before we bring it to the fore? In 2012 we sat and wondered if the time had come to bring the matter to the faithful and all the signs expressed that it was the right course, given the accumulations of evidence and this new doctrine assorted with punishments. Pretty much the contrary with Bishop williamson: he is leading us ever away from the newchurch and we still await punishment for disagreeing with him, while he goes on saying he will be more careful next time.
Moreover one should not blame us to thread carefully with bishops. A priest is a sacramental dead end, down the line, as things revolve around bishops as per canon law, rituals, sacraments, and even sacramentals. As we can see today, the bishop ensures the continuity and survival of a sacramental line. The Moran fiasco shows that to obtain such a thing is not so simple, and we can only rejoice to see that Bishop Williamson is putting the continuity of the episcopate in good hands. In view of Bishop Fellay complete melting on "Conflict Zone", one can doubt that such a thing will ever happen in the xspx. On this point at least our contenders should concede that Bishop Willamson is no Bishop Fellay.
If this is such the case, one can ask the bishop what he actually meant, and if it makes sense somehow: People have been receiving graces at Novus Ordo Masses, all the while that mass is bad. How can it be? God certainly understand that humans can be marooned at time, in the Synagogue after Pentecost and before the destruction of Jerusalem, after Henry breaks with Clement VII and before he imposes the oath of supremacy, after Bishop Fellay shows his colours and before he gets his whole contraption included in the Ecclesia Dei recyclor. Somebody i know well, while he was a navy brat in the eighties, went to the novus ordo mass regularly for two years in Tahiti, French Polynesia. He and his clueless parents tried to sanctify themselves with mixed success, shifting lanes for communion, to avoid eucharistic monsters, kneeling and receiving on the tongue before perplex bystanders, enduring the manifold idiocities, the catechism classes stating with the question "What is a Myth?" etc. Only upon their return in Paris were they told to do that it was better to have stayed at home by the Priests of St Nicolas du Chardonnet. Graces were received in these novus ordo Masses, but it was not the proper channel, and perhaps more by enduring the irritation, the boredom and the humiliations thereof.
Obviously if people can't get along with bishop Williamson that's fine, as long as they get along with his successors, and there is no chance for them to see him down under either, because the Jewish lobby is preventing his australian visa to be granted. It is pretty hard to paint a bad picture of our two new bishops, who don't like to rock the lifeboat as much as the Dino does.
In the meantime, until the situation gets to normal for Fr Picot, we will go through lots of headeaches, because our lines are stretched, so we can only face emergencies by withdrawing units on other fronts, in this case Ireland. Fr Picot still goes to New Zealand, good on him, and replaces me in East Asia to enable me to give a try in May. The Indian priests are trying also on their side, and the soon to be ordained Father John ocd. will make a round of first masses next summer (australian winter).
Therefore, keep up the good fight for your eternal life, dear Faithful. We will not abandon you.
The more I read from Fr. Chazal, the more I like him (despite his insistency on the use of the lower case "I").
What a beautiful letter of Fr. Chazal - thank you so much Noel for posting it.
Fr Chazal is very welcome to Ireland. Indeed, his frankness in explaining various situations is refreshing.
Same here. He seems very rational and objective ... unlike most of the theological ax-grinders out there.
the more I like him (despite his insistency on the use of the lower case "I").
LOL. Once a Frog, always a Frog.

What does this comment mean AJNC?
Simply, AJNC has an AXE to grind with Fr. Chazal and Fr. Pfeiffer, hence these uncalled for remarks.
Gail, it means this: A person's actions, whether good or bad, will often have consequences for that person.
And Chrstnoel, it is logical that if I have an axe to grind with Frs Chazal and Pfeiffer, I would pass such remarks. "Uncalled for" maybe to you, but not to me.
What an excellent letter of Fr. Chazal. I read the whole thing, and found it very Catholic and interesting.
1. +Williamson at any rate can't be decried as a liberal, because AT WORST he is bad at expressing his position. He has no liberalism in his actions, like Bishop Fellay.
This is a point I was trying to articulate: that whatever you think of +Williamson's statements re: the Novus Ordo Missae, you can't attack anything he's done or doing. He obviously isn't favorable to the Novus Ordo or he wouldn't be a (hated) Resistance bishop, consecrating 2 other bishops against Rome's desire to preserve Tradition!
2. +Williamson consecrated 2 more bishops without Rome's permission, while +Fellay promises to consecrate no more until Rome gives permission. So they're obviously not the same!
3. Even +Williamson's comments to the emotional lady in Mahopac, NY (re: the Novus Ordo) he is humble enough to admit he might be wrong there. See the quotes Fr. Chazal gave on this matter. In +Williamson, we have a faithful bishop trying to get to the bottom of things, trying to grasp the truth in all its purity and nuances. He is trying to lead us through these stormy seas; who should condemn him if he makes an honest mistake?
4. Notice that all those priests who "disagree" publicly with +Williamson have waited in vain for the hammer to drop. Has +Williamson proudly stuck to his "errors", attacking anyone who disagrees with him? No. On the contrary, he is quite humble. He is a truth lover and truth seeker. He also wants people to THINK and use their reason rather than just their emotions.
Not sure what he means by this and other remarks in his letter. Where specifically has +W "tripped in the past?" And does bringing up Maria Valtorta constitute a misstep from the past? Does Fr. Chazal not quite realize how much damage his one time "resistance" priest partner has done?
As for the withholding of entry permits or visas, the Jews, of course, have had a lot to do with it. Jewry is quite influential in Australia.
Valtorta's book is on the index and Bishop W. Promotes it.
Thanks for reiterating a claim that has been made for more than a year now, and one with which most of the forum members must, by now, be thoroughly acquainted.
My wife and I read the Poem daily in the face of its alleged inclusion on the "index." So that must make us not very good Catholics, or Catholics practicing under a cloud of disobedience; or, perhaps, Catholics who simply disregard the index.
But I what I really want to know is what Fr. C means. Does he consider the promotion of the Poem by +W as an example of +W's tripping up in the past? If so, what other specific missteps would Fr. Chazal care to add?

My hope in the next few weeks is to begin to develop a greater focus in what I am writing here. Namely, I will be emphasizing many of my thoughts and perceptions regarding the general perpetuating cycle of generational segregation that I believe is causing such great detriment to communities, families, and society in Western America. This damaging cycle, which has been going on (and getting worse) for decades, has much to do with the absence of intentional rites of passage (the handing on of manhood and womanhood responsibilities) from the elders to the "becoming ones," the Western educational system which gives men and women the marks to achieve but sends them out as professionals and not necessarily the maturity to face society as adults, and the honoring of children and seniors as gifts to our society.
I have been through the education system. High school, college, graduate school (seminary)… I've done them all. My sense is that the Western modern educational system leaves men and women still wondering what it means to be a functioning and mature adult in our society. What they do get is a lot of knowledge and a degree that shows that they are responsible in their field… sometimes even an expert. The final goal is most often based on what they are now able to produce, or the job that they are now able to get. We then send them off into the world, telling them that money-making, job keeping, house and car buying, and family raising is all up to them to figure out. But there is so much that they do not get.
Young adults do not necessarily get elders who show them what it means to live life maturely and selflessly. They do not get lessons on conflict management, self-awareness, and honorable behavior. They are instead sent out into society without any sort of leadership in character development. This is something they must figure out on their own. I see the problem being that they don't have any idea of where to look for it. They could try churches, but I have much doubt that they are finding it to a great degree there, as much of our churches are based on the modern education system anyway… about producing a packaged product bound for "success." They could look at the media… but media does a terrible job honoring humanity and the gifts that we can offer as mature men and women. They could try to find their elders themselves, but this is a daunting process that often amounts to an endless pursuit of ever-elusive elders that have "done their work in society" and are looking to do their own thing now.
No one steps in to take over where our fathers and mothers have left off and we are left with trying to find replacements who will heal many of the wounds from which we have never recovered. I would argue that the perhaps the majority of adults in our society are still floundering in adolescence… lost during their most transformative years. It is not only until LIFE initiates us (at 50.55.60 when we look back and wonder what we have really done in life and why we feel so unfulfilled) that we as men and women begin to realize that there is more to life than being a professional getting a good paycheck and having a "safe" environment for one's family (if they can even provide this!). Unfortunately, it is too late for our kids. We have already sent them off to "further their education" in a system that is directing them to learn the same values that we have all been learning all along. They are already on the track to being stuck in adolescence.
I'm not sure that the education system is what really has to change… more so, the perspective of the elders and those "becoming-ones" who will be elders one day. A larger topic for a later day.

Music Roundup: Susan Boyle Is the 'Gift' That Keeps On Giving
By MacKenzie Wilson | 9 years ago
Say what you want about Susan Boyle. She is one of the decade's most surprising, not to mention, endearing stars. It's only been 18 months since she dazzled Britain's Got Talent judges with her rendition of "I Dreamed a Dream", but the 49-year-old singer has captivated the world with her angelic vocals, her charming sense of candor and humor and yes, her occasionally odd slip ups with the paparazzi. But today belongs to Boyle, as she issues her second album, The Gift.
The '60s-tinged holiday effort highlights the Scottish entertainer's wide-range of traditional standards like "O Holy Night" and "The First Noel". Sure, she enjoys covering other people's tunes, like Crowded House's "Don't Dream It's Over" and Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah", but she does it with grace. She is a singer with an impeccable voice, pure and simple. Let her do her thing, y'know? Who cares if she covers such heralded songs? Many before her have gone a similar route and done so without the same ridicule.
And how about this for weird? It seems that Lou Reed has given Boyle a chance, after the Velvet Underground frontman said she couldn't sing his song "Perfect Day" on a September episode of America's Got Talent. We later learned that a licensing snag was to blame, but still Reed took the heat. Well now it seems that not all is lost, for the two have patched things up for Reed to direct Boyle's video for "Perfect Day." Say what?
"I wanted to create a beautiful and intimate piece shot in Susan's native Scotland and she quickly agreed," Reed explained to The Daily Record.
"I loved that Lou understood how much it meant to me to film in Scotland," Boyle added. "I didn't mind how much it rained or blew a gale – I enjoyed every minute."
Other notable releases out this week:
Nadine Coyle – Insatiable
Orange Juice – Coals to Newcastle (6-CD + DVD Box Set)
The Orb and Youth – Impossible Oddities (3-CD Box Set)
Syd Barrett – An Introduction to Syd Barrett (Remastered)
In other music news:
– Liam Gallagher's post-Oasis project Beady Eye will issue their first single "Bring the Light" as a free download on Wednesday, via the band's official site. Thanks for being so generous, Liam. We always knew you had it in ya. (BBC)
– English indie pop outfit The Boy Least Likely To are gearing up for their first-ever holiday release, Christmas Special, out November 30 via +1 Records in the U.S. The 11-song set includes three Christmas standards sprinkled throughout eight original tunes. One of 'em is a festive tale imagining a Cornish bar reunion between Wham!'s George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley on "George and Andrew".
"Making a Christmas album might seem like an odd thing to do, but for us it seems like the most perfect thing…" multi-instrumentalist Pete Hobbs and vocalist Jof Owen shared in a press release. "We've always been drawn to them and we've always written them, with the thought that someday we would have enough Christmas songs to fill a whole album. And at last we have, so here it is… [it's] the Christmas album we've always dreamed of making."
– Mark Ronson and The View's Kyle Falconer appeared to have a lot of fun creating "The Bike Song" for the English DJ's latest LP, Record Collection. Now the two have hooked up again to compose a "bagpipe-based song". Now that sounds absolutely brilliant, doesn't it? (NME)
– The always fabulous Bryan Ferry took to the Strictly Come Dancing stage on Sunday (November 7) to perform "You Can Dance", the lead single from his latest Olympia album. Too bad the Roxy Music frontman didn't take time out to shake a leg.
One to keep an eye on: Spring Offensive
This Oxford-bred fivesome draws from Radiohead's nervy side while building up its own post-rock canvas. The 14-minute "The First of Many Dreams About Monsters" – inspired by Swiss psychiatrist Elisabeth Kubler-Ross's analysis on the five stages of grief in "On Death And Dying" – is one of the band's epic singles out this year. I just had to share. It's also available as a free download here.

Goodwood FOS
The Best Cars From Goodwood Festival Of Speed
in Goodwood FOS
by Alex Harrington July 18, 2018, 4:21 am
Goodwood Festival of Speed is always a weekend to behold. The greatest of motoring technologies meets the most legendary and historic in a swarm of revving engines, Castrol Oil, and tyre smoke. This year, we were joined by whirring electric motors and, as a first for FOS, autonomy. So here are our picks for the greatest cars at Goodwood Festival of Speed.
VOLKSWAGEN ID R
Setting the fastest time at GoodwoodFOS is not a feat to laugh at. It takes a fast car, skill, and big balls. With a time of 43.86 seconds, it comes third overall behind the Gould GR51 and the McLaren MP4/13 and first this year. The VW recently showed its performance at Pikes Peak, beating the record by a ridiculous 15 seconds. Armed with electric motors, maybe they are the way forward?
While this may be turning into the next NSX with a teaser time of years, it was great to see the car in action, albeit in camouflage. Toyota insists that it will be released net year, let's just hope that it's not too much Z4 and not enough Supra, but only time will tell.
What happens when you grab a McLaren 570S and stuff an extra 30bhp down its throat, take away some weight, and add some aerodynamic magic? You get the 600LT, a car that's faster than the Ferrari 488GTB and on some tracks, faster than its 675LT big brother.
ROBORACE DEVBOT
See that space where the driver sits? Me neither. That's because it's completely autonomous and was the first autonomous vehicle to drive the hill climb without any external help. And you know what? It was pretty fast, too. It boasts an electric powertrain and state of the art autonomous technology, its makers are hoping to make a racing series out of this concept.
ASTON MARTIN CYGNET V8
Aston Martin are crazy folk, aren't they? They've stuffed the V8 from the Vantage S into the tiny little chassis of what was originally a Toyota IQ. Then they slaughtered the hill climb with its thunderous bespoke exhaust system and rear-wheel drive powertrain.
Volvo wants to show everyone that not only can they do extremely reliable and comfortable cars, but they can also do extremely fast and powerful weapons. This is the Polestar 1, the first car from Volvo's performance and electrification brand. It boasts 600hp from its high-tech hybrid powertrain which consists of a 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine and efficient electric motors. I think it's safe to say that we're very excited to see how Polestar progresses.
Shelby Cobra Daytona
Technology is great. But every once in a while we have to return to something less electric and more brutal. This is my personal favourite, the Shelby Cobra Daytona. A mix of British light-weight, American powertrain, and aerodynamic trickery, this was a real car to compete with back in the day. And just listen to it! How can you not fall in love with that burble?

Alex started racing at a young age so certainly knows his way around a car and a track. He can just about put a sentence together too, which helps.
He has a great interest in the latest models, but would throw all of his money at a rusty old French classic and a 300ZX.

The World Trade Organization has created a flatter trade spectrum for more than 20 years, but the recent Brexit issue and the on-going commerce war between the U.S. and China have brought uncertainty to international trade, and such uncertainty connotes risks affecting enterprises' supply chain strategy and deployment. Occasional large-scale natural disasters such as strong earthquakes, powerful typhoons, and serious floods call for humanitarian logistics to promptly and efficiently collect and distribute precious goods to effected areas. Furthermore, climate change has made these disasters even more profound and serious, thereby placing businesses in an uncertain sustainability and assert their supply chains' coordination. Recent ICT developments in areas like IoT, VR/AR, AI, block-chains, etc. are contributing to new business models and performance improvement, which subsequently lead to the growth of smart supply chains. In the retailing and distribution contexts, an omni-channel directs the change and seamless integration of online-to-offline (O2O) commerce. Innovation in business models and ICT applications also relates to the area of unproven solutions and generally creates high stakes under business uncertainty.
The theme of ICLS 2019 is smart supply chain in an uncertain world. The challenging issues that companies face are plentiful – some are traditional and some are emerging and uncertain. Uncertainty may come from the volatile global trade environment or result from the impacts of extreme weather caused by climate change. Innovation through new ICT can help lessen the problems arising from such uncertain business environments and engender a supply chain strategy and operations with new business models and technology. The future comes with higher uncertainty, but it is shaping newer, smarter, more innovative, and more adaptive supply chains of tomorrow.

Q: Create a DLL using Makefile to run on Windows XP (32 bit) and Windows 7 (64 bit) I need to modify the below makefile to create a dll (SampleNew.dll) that will run on a 32-bit windows and 64-bit Windows environment.

A: Your tool chain will have to support both bitnesses; your compiler and linker will have to be able to emit both 64-bit and 32-bit code, or you could have two separate tool chains. Let's assume your compiler is in 64-bit mode by default and takes a switch to create 32-bit code. You can use target-specific variables in make to set this switch for the 32-bit build.
Besides the compiler, you will also have to set some other variables differently for the two builds. Things that come to mind are OBJ_DIR and LIB_DIR, so the output files don't mix; LIB_INCLUDES, because both builds require their own versions of the libraries you're linking against (so you will need two versions of SampleApi.dll).
Your makefile will come to look something along these lines:
32bit: CC           += -m32
32bit: OBJ_DIR       = obj32
32bit: LIB_DIR      := $(LIB_DIR)32
32bit: LIB_INCLUDES  = -L$(SAMPLE_DIR)/lib32

all: 64bit 32bit

64bit 32bit: $(DIRS) $(TARGET)

(I've excluded the parts that don't need to change.)

A: The simplest thing you can do is to build both separately. For example, defining:
CFLAGS = $(CMODE) -Wall -fpic $(INCLUDES) -O0 -g3 -march=$(ARCH)
OBJ_DIR = obj-$(ARCH)
LIB_DIR = lib-$(ARCH)

.PHONY: default
default:
        $(MAKE) ARCH=i686 all
        $(MAKE) ARCH=x86_64 all

Avoid -m32, since it generates 32bit code for x86-64, which may use instructions not available in x86.


Brad Parsons Band brought their "genre bending blend of psychedelic rock and Americana" music, as described on their website, to Union Stage and after showing the audience what they had to offer, definitely gained quite a few new fans. Belting out some truly great original hits and commenting on how good the pizza that he had seen several folks eating looked, the band members wrapped their set and hung out in the crowd talking to attendees for the rest of the evening.
Traveling down from Annapolis, where they played the night before, through some interesting weather, Yonder Mountain String Band was ready to party and a little inclement weather wasn't going to stop them or their fans! An opening solo that bass player Ben Kauffmann disclosed his band mates supposedly insisted on was a seugway into "Traffic Jam", a track off their 2004 album Mountain Tracks. Acknowledging the precipitation that had been relentless all day and switched back and forth from all forms, he gave praise to attendees,  "Thank you for braving what is just the most disgusting weather to be here with us today," stated bass player and lead singer Ben Kaufmann "we appreciate it very much".  A great transition into a song off another album from earlier in their career "Rain Still Falls", they proceeded to get the audience into a frenzy of foot moving with the next few songs, all a great buildup to The Seldom Scene's hit, "I Know You Rider" to which almost the entire venue sang along with. Inviting Justin Mazer, onstage to join them to help out on what is one of many tracks for Ben's supposed unfinished Bluegrass Opera, "Looking Back Over My Shoulder" proved to be quite a treat for the band and the audience members alike.
Allie Kral continually killed it with her fiddle fingers and amazing voice and threw it all the way back to the nineties with a cover of Blind Melon's "No Rain" again hitting on the days outdoor activity. The song was sung beautifully and made me immediately go home to find the vinyl copy of the album. Personally, I enjoy both versions but Allie really makes it her own with the femininity of her voice and of course, her charming smile onstage. She demonstrated her vocal ability well again on "Travelin Prayer" and the solos by not only her but every member of the band were something truly hypnotizing.
After closing out the main set list the band returned to an excited audience for a two song encore that kept people moving excitedly around Union Stage enjoying both the music, venue and the atmosphere. Plenty to clap for, the audience was more than satisfied with their snowy Thursday and showed the band much love. Yonder Mountain continues their tour with a stop next month in Mexico for the phenomenal lineup organizers of the Strings and Sol Festival have put together. If you are among the lucky ones getting to attend this fun in the sun festival, enjoy!!!

Eric Yarnell, ND, RH(AHG)
Though most people are familiar with Nepeta cataria (catnip) leaf as a stimulant for cats, it is still relatively underutilized clinically. This valuable antiviral herb is safe enough for use during pregnancy and in infants and children, while simultaneously tasting great. Its calming effect and antinauseal action are added bonuses in helping sick children and adults sleep better with fewer symptoms, and thus support and promote their healing processes.
I learned the use of catnip glycerite from my mentor, Silena Heron, ND. She had been asked by a pediatric nurse practitioner in Sedona, AZ to formulate an antiviral combination that she could use to help with viral infections. This nurse practitioner was in the process of changing to a holistic practice and in particular wanted to get away from using antibiotics for patients with serous otitis media. Dr. Heron came up with a formula which worked extremely well and which this nurse practitioner still swears by to this day.
One of the secrets of the success of the formula was use of catnip glycerite. The lemony flavor of this extract, much more so than Melissa officinalis (lemonbalm) leaf, makes even Ligusticum porteri (osha) root and bitters palatable to children. Cherry fruit or Sambucus cerulea (American elder) fruit syrups and Glycyrrhiza glabra (licorice) root fluid extract are also excellent corrigents (extracts that improve flavor). All but cherry fruit syrup are also documented to have antiviral and anti-inflammatory activity.
Clinical trials are unfortunately lacking on this useful herb, and thus we are forced to rely on clinical experience and laboratory research. Several species of Nepeta have been shown to have antiviral activity in vitro (Abad, et al. 2000). Other species have been documented to be analgesic, one because of mild opioid receptor agonism by the compound nepetalactone (Aydin, et al. 1998; Aydin, et al. 1999). A methanol extract of Nepeta sibthorpii (Greek catnip), which may not resemble the more aqueous-type extract of catnip glycerite, was found to be inflammation modulating and antioxidant, with the whole extract being more active than any isolated constituents (Miceli, et al. 2005).
Not only does catnip fight viruses, it acts on other microbes as well. A diethyl ether extract of catnip, which again is likely fairly distinct chemically from catnip glycerite though it is unknown to what extent, inhibits Staphylococcus aureus enzymes and adherence in vitro (Nostro, et al. 2001). Adding a couple of drops of catnip volatile oil per dose is one way to enhance the antimicrobial activity of the glycerite. The volatile oil from various Nepeta species has shown significant antimicrobial activity in vitro (Sonboli, et al. 2004; Kalpoutzakis, et al. 2001).
Catnip glycerite finds its greatest utility in patients with upper respiratory tract infections. Generally catnip is combined with immune stimulants, diaphoretics, other antivirals, inflammation modulators, and other calming herbs. It is also useful as part of a protocol for patients with gastrointestinal tract infections. The famous Eclectic physician H. W. Felter wrote this about catnip: "A safe and valuable, though simple carminative, diaphoretic (in warm infusion), and tonic (cold infusion). A splendid quieting agent for fretful babies, and carminative and antispasmodic for abdominal pain with flatulence…the warm infusion is an admirable remedy to break up 'common colds' by diaphoresis…" (Felter 1922).
Typically, 15-20% of a formula needs to be catnip glycerite for its taste benefit to be significant. However, it may still have clinical activity below this level. Used as a simple, the dose would be 1-2 ml of catnip glycerite every 2-3 hours for an acute infection. As noted above, 1-2 drops (depending on body size) of catnip volatile oil can be added to each dose if a bacterial infection is suspected or known. Hot catnip tea, made from 3-5 g fresh or properly dried herb/cup (steeped 10-15 min in a covered container), drunk several times a day hot can help greatly when there is mild-to-moderate fever to enhance the healing power of this normal immune reaction. If the fever is already robust, then the glycerite or a cold infusion is preferred.
Though the glycerite and aqueous extracts have no known adverse effects, the volatile oil in excess may cause CNS depression or seizure and should be used with caution. Volatile oils should never be stored where children can get into them and should ideally be kept in childproof containers.
While catnip is not necessarily a sexy herb backed by a large European phytomedical research consortium, it is still clinically useful. Its gentleness, safety, chemical complexity, and diversity of effects confound the overly simplistic pharmacological model of medicine. It is up to naturopathic physicians and other practitioners who have directly experienced the benefits of gentle herbs like catnip to publish our cases and in-office research to jump-start larger research to document their efficacy, safety, and cost-efficiency.

We use light and color to create a unique environment that is sure to "wow" your guests and look amazing in photos.
It is very hard to put your finger on the most important element of a wedding reception. Is it the food, music, venue? You could go on forever naming possibilities, but at Amarillo Wedding DJ & Entertainment we think we have the answer. Professional venue lighting would be among our top choices!
Add style and uniqueness to your event and venue. Custom lighting means an unforgettable reception!
Brides, their mother's, and wedding planners all work very hard when decorating a reception venue. But what happens when you realize something just isn't right, and no amount of flowers or streamers can fix it? You probably need custom lighting to match your wedding colors and table centerpieces! We use special PAR lights that will wash a wall or pillar in color or provide an upward spot light effect. Most people wouldn't imaging using a few lights to match your wedding colors, but it does in fact make a very big difference in the mood your room will give guests.
Even if your venue isn't the most stylish or modern, custom lighting can really give it personality.
We consider ourselves modern-day interior designers using lighting as our paintbrush. It takes a certain level of sensitivity to get lighting right. Most lighting businesses will just blast light on every wall, but that isn't the point. We are using these lights to add to your venue not take away from it. Lights can be used, for example, to draw your eye to the important locations like the bride and groom's table or along specially crown molded pillars that adorn the walls. Doing this subconsciously tells the viewer's brain to not look where there isn't special lighting, causing them to overlook some aspects of the venue that may not be so flattering (the buffet line or bathroom doors).
Before the wedding we survey a venue or space selecting special points that need to be accented so that the day of the event or reception there is no question that everyone will be satisfied. We will provide you with our ideas and will take any of yours into consideration as well.
The thing that people tend to appreciate most about our services is that there are no hidden fees! We don't pull shady sales tricks making you choose between music or lighting, or offer cheaper lights with cheaper packages. We give you the absolute BEST lights we have to offer no matter which DJ and Lights package you purchase! Everything is included because selecting a DJ shouldn't be a hard process with 20 possible outcomes.
In closing, we would love to help be the architects of your venue's lighting and sound. We have years of experience in sound and lighting and we hope you'll choose us for your wedding in Amarillo, TX or the Panhandle area.
Please contact us to book one of our DJs for you wedding.
