The Nu-Vista Vinyl has a very sophisticated power supply configuration. A total of about ten PSUs.
All the Nuvistor PSUs are passively filtered and regulated.
To try to solve, or at least mitigate, these problems it was decided to design a new tube, but from the beginning and using state-of-the-art 1950's technology. The result was a triumph...the Nuvistor. The best triode tube ever made.
Unfortunately Bell Labs had been quietly working away at semi-conductors and at the moment of the Nuvistors triumph it all turned to dust. Can you imagine what it must have felt like to have been on the Nuvistor design team? The mind boggles.
So the brilliant Nuvistor tube never really went anywhere in audio......until the early 1990's when a small company named Musical Fidelity, located to the west of London in an artisan hamlet named Wembley started making amplifiers with Nuvistors. They were made in limited editions and sold out almost immediately. To this day these icons of audio individualism are still highly valued.
Everything has been designed to allow the sound to sing....no noise, no distortion, no layout anomalies.....nothing gets in the way of the Nu-Vista Vinyl's reason for existence......the music.
Okay, so lots of technical guff, but the proof is in the real numbers.
Overload margin is better than 31dB......woof woof!!

"Tieling New City is a brainchild of socialist planners"
Near the bustling industrial city of Tieling in northeastern China, there is a brand new city some 6 miles down the road called Tieling New City. The place has everything going for it. Visitors will find excellent infrastructure, government offices, schools, shopping centers and apartment complexes. Land and labor costs are significantly lower than other areas of China. Tieling New City can now hold some 60,000 residents with projections of triple that number in the near future.
The city even won a special recognition from the U.N. Human Settlements Program as an example of "providing a well-developed and modern living space." The only problem is that Tieling New City is virtually a ghost town with almost no inhabitants. It is a city without a soul.
The Little Satanist Girl Next Door
Tieling New City is a brainchild of socialist planners who still run the nation with social engineering and old-fashioned communist corruption. These planners spent millions of yuan cleaning up marshland that had been used to dump untreated sewage. The logic was build first and populate later. The project also served as an economic stimulus project. With the downturn in world economy, China is trying to artificially pump up its economy by creating construction jobs, burning up money by throwing up a number of ghost cities like Tieling New City all over the country.
In typical Communist Chinese fashion, these cities are riddled with bad loans and deals crafted by corrupt officials who often trample on the rights of farmers and villagers forced to evacuate the area. This inorganic top-down manner of creating a city out of thin air is a surefire formula for building a city without a soul.
Tieling New City is truly a city without a soul. People simply don't want to live there. There is no community life. There is no history or warmth. People feel more comfortable in crowded Tieling where they have links with friends, family and place.
10 Steps to Prepare for America's Economic Collapse
Visitors cannot help but get an eerie feeling of being in a corpse-city when, at night, row after row of apartment buildings remain dark and nearly empty, save for a few residents and security guards. The industrial park is not much better. This vacant complex was built to be bustling with some 15,000 employees. Today, only two firms are there, one of which employs around 15 persons. Even with such dismal occupancy, there are still plans to double the park's size. There is also a warehouse center on the outskirts of town that is virtually unused. Security guards seem to be the only real career opportunity in town with a future.
Despite the lack of enthusiasm for Tieling New City, the socialist planners were not easily discouraged. They came up with a set of socialist plans and schemes to move people in.
According to the Tieling government website, the industrial park created 5,000 jobs for rural workers in 2012. However, officials were soon disappointed to learn that most of the workers found places to live outside the new city. Officials then thought they found the solution when they moved many government offices from Tieling to Tieling New City. However, most government workers just commute from their old homes rather than move to the inhospitable city.
Officials went a step further by closing schools in the old city and forcing some 50,000 students to go to brand new schools in the new city. They hoped (against all hope) that parents would move closer to the schools. Alas, the parents are staying put. Despite the place's outwardly pleasant appearance, they complain that the absence of community and services make the soulless city unlivable.
PETITION: Arkansas Keep 10 Commandments. Stop Satanists!
In face of such obstacles, socialist planners now believe the problem can be solved by building yet more facilities. According to The Wall Street Journal (8-9-13), the municipal government will be spending another $1.3 billion on new projects. Maybe, just maybe, officials reason, people will be attracted by an art gallery, a gymnasium, an indoor swimming pool, and another (empty) shopping center.
What central planners fail to realize is that cities must either be built organically or they will be empty shells. The most important components of the city are individuals, families and communities not warehouses, industrial parks and shopping centers.
As noted in my book, Return to Order, from the exuberant element of life together in society, there springs forth "unique systems of art, styles of life, socio-political institutions, and economic models that differ from the rigid and soulless central planning and one-size-fits-all solutions so prized by socialists and bureaucrats."
Free Book: Return to Order: From a Frenzied Economy to an Organic Christian Society—Where We've Been, How We Got Here, and Where We Need to Go
Indeed, so many fail to consider this human element which is essential to sound economy. They think, like the Chinese socialist planners at Tieling New City, that economic health can be bought by simply injecting money into an area without any link to the inhabitants. Bring back family, morals and institutions to a city and it will acquire a soul. Until then, the world is doomed to continue building cities without souls.

Thank you to everyone at St. Peter's for your guidance and advices.
You have a very good team, I hope St. Peter's doesn't change. by far the best Practice and team.
I just wanted to say that this was the best placement / 4 weeks of my time at UCL medical school. From day 1, all the team were so incredibly kind, generous, happy and willing to help me get the most out the 4 weeks. Everyday, I was greeted by warm smiles and lots of love which gave me so much confidence going into the day.
I was given every single opportunity to better myself and to understand the complexities and works of a GP practice including pharmacy visits, the chance to give over 50 flu vaccines!, seeing my own patients, diabetic clinics, 8 week baby checks etc. I was simply blown away by how much time and effort the practice invested in me. All the patients there kept saying how "this is not an ordinary practice, and the best I have ever been to" and so I have been incredibly lucky and so thank you for placing me at St Peters Medical Practice as it has truly inspired me as to how I want to practice medicine which is with love, kindness, patience, respect and understanding.

Britain's spreadbetting industry is no longer being run by all men after IG Group picked a female executive to replace its former boss Peter Hetherington.
The company said that June Felix, who was most recently president of US payments giant Verifone in Europe and Russia, would become chief executive with immediate effect. She has previously held senior roles at Citibank and IBM Corporation.
Her appointment marks the first time IG Group has had a female boss in its 44-year history. Its closest rivals Plus500 and CMC Markets have also only ever had male chief executives, although Penelope Judd was made non-executive chairman of Plus500 last year.

During a readiness exercise, two Air Force security policemen were guarding entry to a bunker-like structure where aircraft were kept. When a pilot about to do a preflight check approached without his identification in plain view, one of the Air Force security policemen asked him for it. "I don't see why I have to show you my ID," the pilot snapped. "After all, it is my plane." "Sir, with all due respect, it may be your plane," replied the Air Force security man, "but it's sitting in my garage!"

UN humanitarian team helps Micronesia recover following tropical storm
The United Nations agency for humanitarian coordination has sent a disaster assessment team to Micronesia after Typhoon Lupit struck the Pacific islands nation early last week, destroying food crops, contaminating water supplies and damaging homes and public facilities.
The three-member assessment team, organized by the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), was deployed after the Federal States of Micronesia's Government requested help, OCHA said in a statement released today in New York. It is currently in Yap State, working with local officials and United States support.
The OCHA team's preliminary assessment has found that contaminated water supplies has led to reported outbreaks of communicable diseases, while shelter is needed immediately for the residents of 200 homes that were completely destroyed during the tropical storm. Power distribution in Yap State has also been disrupted.
OCHA's statement said food and water supplies should arrive from Guam and elsewhere tomorrow, but warned that the distribution of relief items could be delayed because of mechanical problems with a government ship.
No casualties or injuries as a result of the typhoon were reported, thanks to an early-warning system, but low-lying areas in neighbouring islands, especially in the north and west of Yap State, suffered severe damage from the strong winds and a tidal surge.

Shoebox drive garners record numbers
L.J. Gambone Apple Valley Review
In the true spirit of giving, the High Desert community stepped up this season and donated thousands of toys, school supplies and other items to the Samaritan's Purse project, Operation Christmas Child.
According to Lani Sanders, director of Victorville's Zion Lutheran Church's Relay Center where the boxes were filled and packed, local volunteers assembled 3,310 shoeboxes, over 100 more than last year.
"It was a wonderful thing to collect 102 more boxes than last year, so there was a lot of excitement around here," said Sanders. "More and more people have been hearing about it and someday, we're hoping we will be able to fill 10,000 shoeboxes every year."
According to Sanders, after all the shoeboxes were filled, they were driven to a collection center in Upland on Nov. 23. The boxes from Victorville are now on their way to youngsters in the Philippines, Peru, Indonesia and Mongolia.
"Samaritan's Purse does a wonderful job of letting everyone who participated in the program know where the boxes went to," said Sanders. "They take videos of them being delivered and it's amazing to watch how they are sent by canoe or on elephants. It's really something to see how remote some of the places are that the boxes go to.
"And it's so rewarding because a lot of the children have never received a Christmas gift in their entire lives."
For those who missed Operation Christmas Child's collection event, donations can still be made online at www.samaritanspurse.org/buildonline. Visitors can virtually pack a shoebox for a child somewhere in the world, Sanders said.
Once a child's age and gender are selected, donors will be taken to a shopping area on the site where they can choose various gifts to include in the shoeboxes. They also have the option of writing a note of encouragement to the child who will receive it.
"Although Operation Christmas Child is mainly for the holidays, Samaritan's Purse accepts donations all year round," said Sanders. "They like to have a good stock of shoeboxes on hand to deliver to children who may be victims of a disaster."
Samaritan's Purse, an international Christian relief and evangelism organization, founded Operation Christmas Child in 1993. Over the years, the charity has delivered gift-filled shoe boxes to more than 124 million children worldwide.
"Through the simple act of filling a shoebox, someone in (the Victor Valley) can make a tangible difference in the life of a child halfway around the world," said Jennifer Trevithick, regional program director for Samaritan's Purse. "Anyone can participate and bring joy to a child facing difficult circumstances."

Jan 20, 2023 Brian Lara, cricket ndtv sports, mickey arthur, west indies

One of the problems blocking higher settlement about participant schedules and availability is the long-standing conflicts between gamers and CWI, the report mentioned.

Biografia
Nato a Brescia, vive a Corciano (Perugia); è sposato e ha tre figli. Si è laureato in giurisprudenza presso l'Università degli Studi di Parma, e nel 1997 ha svolto il servizio militare negli Alpini.

Ha insegnato diritto ed economia presso il Liceo Pedagogico "Maddalena di Canossa" di Brescia e ha conseguito l'abilitazione alla professione forense nel 2000.

Avvocato cassazionista dal 2013.

Cattolico conservatore e membro del Cammino neocatecumenale, rappresenta le istanze ultra-conservatrici in Senato. È stato consigliere nazionale del forum delle associazioni familiari fino al 2015 e membro della commissione adozioni internazionali presso la Presidenza del consiglio dei ministri fino al 2016, nonché direttore del consultorio familiare "La Dimora" di Perugia.

È uno degli organizzatori dei tre "Family Day" (nel 2007, nel 2015 e nel 2016) eventi realizzati da associazioni ed enti religiosi in opposizione all'estensione di determinati diritti alle coppie omosessuali. Dal 2015 al 2018 ha fatto parte del direttivo della Fondazione Novae Terrae, che ha ricevuto donazioni da alcune società estere, soprattutto russo-azere, con fondi che utilizza per finanziare campagne contro aborto e divorzio. La fondazione è al centro di diverse inchieste giornalistiche e giudiziarie.

Nella sua attività di avvocato segue prevalentemente il diritto penale e il diritto di famiglia.

Attività politica

Elezione a senatore
Alle elezioni politiche del 2018 viene eletto al Senato della Repubblica, nelle liste della Lega nella circoscrizione Lombardia. Dal giugno 2018 è stato capogruppo della Lega in Commissione Giustizia a Palazzo Madama. Dal giugno 2018 al settembre 2019 è stato anche capogruppo per la Lega nella Giunta per le elezioni e le autorizzazioni a procedere del Senato. Il 15 novembre 2018 viene nominato vicepresidente della Commissione Infanzia e adolescenza.

Alle elezioni politiche anticipate del 25 settembre 2022 viene candidato per la Camera in seconda posizione nel plurinominale dell'Umbria non risultando eletto.

Posizioni politiche
Pillon persegue una politica che porti ad avere un numero di aborti pari a zero, con la modifica della legge 194 in somiglianza alla legge dell'Argentina che consente l'aborto soltanto in caso di pericolo di vita per la madre o violenza sessuale.

È favorevole a politiche per il sostegno della natalità e per combattere il calo demografico.

Ritiene necessario impedire pratiche come la surrogazione di maternità o la donazione di gameti umani in quanto rappresentano uno sfruttamento della donna.

Sostiene il diritto del paziente a ricevere cura e assistenza in ogni situazione, professandosi contrario all'accanimento terapeutico ma altresì contrario all'eutanasia.

Nel 2018 ha presentato un esposto alla magistratura per la morte di Alfie Evans.

Nel giugno 2020 propone l'introduzione di un controllo parentale preinstallato per le connessioni Internet dall'Italia, disattivabile solo dal titolare della connessione, per evitare l'accesso a contenuti violenti o pornografici da parte dei minori.

Ddl Pillon sull'affido condiviso

Pillon ha presentato un disegno di legge sull'affido condiviso che introduce la mediazione obbligatoria nelle separazioni in presenza di figli minori, tempi paritetici con obbligo di collocazione del minore presso entrambi i genitori e il mantenimento diretto con abolizione dell'assegno di mantenimento per il figlio.

Tale proposta di legge ha ricevuto molte critiche da parte di partiti d'opposizione, di numerosi esperti, dell'Ordine nazionale degli psicologi nonché di molte associazioni che hanno rilevato come essa non tenesse conto né della difficile situazione di molte madri separate né dell'interesse dei figli. Il ddl, che non è stato approvato, ha però ricevuto l'approvazione di associazioni di padri separati.
Il ddl aveva impensierito anche l'ONU, che aveva espresso forte preoccupazione per la tutela di donne e bambini, oltre che per l'incompatibilità con la Convenzione di Istanbul, indirizzando una lettera al governo italiano.

Critiche e controversie

Complottismo, satanismo, stregoneria
Crede nella veridicità della teoria del complotto sull'ideologia gender, posizione seconda la quale nelle scuole italiane viene compiuto indottrinamento ideologico su questo tema.

Afferma inoltre che esiste una lobby gay (cospirazione che vedrebbe le persone LGBT associarsi con lo scopo di rovesciare "l'ordine morale") e che essa punti al reclutamento omosessuale (panico morale nato negli anni 1970).

Poco dopo la sua elezione a senatore sostiene che nelle scuole di Brescia venga insegnata agli alunni la stregoneria riferendosi a un progetto promosso dalla biblioteca civica e finanziato dal Comune, sulle fiabe e i racconti del mondo dove venivano trattate anche le streghe.

Dopo la serata finale di Sanremo 2019, a seguito di una critica mossa dall'esorcista don Aldo Bonaiuti ha criticato uno sketch comico della conduttrice Virginia Raffaele accusandola di "invocare il maligno di fronte a un pubblico di milioni di italiani".

Nel 2019 sostiene che la fontana di Vergato opera di Luigi Ontani sarebbe "satanista", chiedendone la distruzione con una "colata di cemento".

Le accuse di sessismo e omofobia

Pillon è stato accusato più volte di omofobia, anche a causa delle sue prese di posizione contro il ddl Zan, la sua partecipazione al Family Day, le sue convinzioni riguardo alla teoria del gender e alla lobby gay.

Nel 2021 è stato accusato di "sessismo" dopo aver dichiarato che "le femmine hanno maggiore propensione per le materie legate all'accudimento mentre i maschi sono più portati per le materie tecniche", dopo che un'università di Bari aveva deciso di ridurre le tasse scolastiche in alcuni corsi per incentivare l'iscrizione delle studentesse. Ha anche accusato l'università di essere cultrice dell'ideologia gender.

Procedimenti giudiziari

Diffamazione circolo Omphalos
Nell'aprile del 2019 viene condannato in primo grado, dal Tribunale di Perugia per il reato di diffamazione nei confronti del circolo LGBT Omphalos di Perugia, affiliato ad Arcigay e del suo responsabile dell'area giovanile.

Oltre alla sanzione penale, corrispondente ad una multa di 1.500 euro, è stato condannato a corrispondere la somma di trentamila euro a titolo di provvisionale per il risarcimento danni. Alla sospensione della pena è stato subordinato il pagamento dei danni. Le parti civili erano assistite dagli avvocati di Rete Lenford.

Durante una serie di incontri ad Assisi, a San Marino e ad Ascoli Piceno, Pillon aveva detto che i volantini informativi contro omofobia e bullismo distribuiti dall'associazione Omphalos durante un'assemblea di istituto di una scuola nel 2012 servivano a propagandare l'omosessualità e fossero un invito ad avere rapporti tra persone dello stesso sesso, inoltre aveva insinuato che l'associazione stessa distribuisse materiale pornografico.

Il 15 febbraio 2021 la Corte d'Appello di Perugia assolve Pillon dalle accuse a lui contestate perché "il fatto non costituisce reato". Il 29 aprile del 2022 la Corte di Cassazione annulla tale assoluzione disponendo un nuovo processo. Il 12 dicembre 2022 la Corte d'Appello di Firenze proscioglie Pillon per intervenuta prescrizione per quanto concerne il reato di diffamazione, ma ripristina la sanzione a titolo provvisionale di trentamila euro disposta in primo grado; Pillon annuncia l'intenzione di ricorrere alla Corte Europea dei Diritti dell'Uomo.

One day until the big day!
Awww, we are getting close to our big day! Tomorrow, my daughter, Kristen and I run our first half marathon! I drove to Phoenix today and Kristen flew in from San Jose.
5 months of training and I am oh so ready! Today we pick up our official bibs and we will run tomorrow morning.
As I run this first run, I have dedicated it to one of my best friends, Teresa Thomas who passed away last month from breast cancer. I am wearing pink and will be thinking of her each mile.
Tammy and Kristen, Nothing compares to the thrill of crossing the finish line when one runs a 1/2 or a full Marathon, except maybe successfully climbing Popocatepetl, (second highest peak in Mexico,an active volcano at an elevation of 17,800 feet) or walking the Inca trail from Bolivia into Peru. It is an experience like I would imagine a rock star feels. When it is all over you will relive the cheers, congratulatory remarks, excitement of an organized race,and a feeling of worthiness will engulf you. You will forget the pains and aches – it is like child birth! Once that baby is put in your arms – You can't remember the labor pains.
Wishing you two both lots of luck for a successful injury free run. My spirit will be there side by side urging you on one step at a time!
Thank you Alba, you have been my inspiration… I still can't believe that the date is finally here. The only thing that would make this day even more special would be if you were able to see me run my first race…but guess what…when I run in Palm Springs I know you will be there to cheer me on! Love you Alba!!

Q: MS Access Determine the listbox item clicked on click event I have a ListBox within MS Access and would like to find the best way to get the list item which was selected/deselected at the time of the on-click event.
Its a little more complicated than looping through the selected items, since the listbox is already loaded with some items selected. I am trying to find the single item which was affected at the time of the on-click event.

So, If the user clicks "Col2-How" in the example above, how would I determine that was the record clicked, Alternatively, if one deselects the first record, I would need to know. Any clues?
The only thing I can think of is to use an in-memory object to maintain alist of highlighted rows and track back to the selected items at the time of the click to determine the deltas?

A: you could use AfterUpdate event,  for example the name of the listbox is 'aListbox',
so try this :
Private Sub aListBox_AfterUpdate()
  Dim rowIndex As Integer
  Dim rowValue As String
  Dim rowIsSelected As Integer
  Dim result As String

  ' ListBox row index clicked
  rowIndex = Me.aListBox.ListIndex

  ' Row value clicked
  rowValue = Me.aListBox.Column(0)

  ' If row is selected return value is -1, if unselected return value 0
  rowIsSelected = Me.aListBox.Selected(rowIndex)

  If (rowIsSelected = -1) Then
    result = rowValue & " selected"
  Else
    result = rowValue & " unselected"
  End If

  MsgBox (result)

End Sub

VA whistleblowers say they've been punished
Kala Kachmar
Montgomery Advertiser
Two whistleblowers say that not only are they under attack for alerting the public about long wait times being covered up at the central Alabama VA, but that those wait times are getting longer.
Hundreds of leaked documents sent to the Advertiser during a seven-month period revealed patient abuse, inadequate care and unethical practices by the director and other staff at the Montgomery and Tuskegee hospitals.
Records included:
•VA police reports of patient abuse by staff who went unpunished
•Internal reports showing there wasn't enough staff to adequately care for the number of veterans the facility was supposed to be serving
•Internal briefing documents showing that when management discovered thousands of X-rays were disappearing before doctors reviewed them, the problem was ignored for years
•Evidence that former CAVHCS director James Talton knew that records of patient wait times were being manipulated to indicate shorter delays, but took no action for more than a year.
Little has changed
But more than six months after Talton was put on administrative leave and then fired for neglect of duty, very little has changed, according to internal CAVHCS reports obtained by the Advertiser.
As of March 2, there were nearly 4,000 CAVHCS patients who have been waiting more than 90 days for non-VA care, a figure that has more than tripled since July 2014, according to an internal CAVHCS report.
Not only are veterans in central Alabama still waiting long periods for appointments, the facilities aren't sufficiently staffed and a recent VA quality analysis downgraded the system, putting it into a category with the lowest performing facilities in the country.
VA police reports from the past several months also show staff are still abusing and taking advantage of patients, especially those in the drug treatment program and nursing home facility in Tuskegee.
Whistleblowers went public
Richard Tremaine, associate director of CAVHCS, and assistant director Sheila Meuse, who have stayed anonymous until now, chose to go public nearly 10 months after they first expressed concerns about unethical practices and major inefficiencies in several departments. They initially notified VA Regional Director Charles Sepich of their concerns, and later, the U.S. Office of Special Counsel, a federal agency that investigates whistleblower retaliation.
The two whistleblowers were responsible for disclosing information that lead to Talton's firing and alerted the public to the failures at CAVHCS.
Since then, the two employees, who have worked a combined 52 years with the VA, say they have endured 10 months of retaliation from regional and local VA leaders, including the removal of duties, exclusion from important decisions by interim CAVHCS director Robin Jackson and investigations into their conduct that have been ongoing for nearly nine months.
Meuse and Tremaine had both been at CAVHCS less than four months when the hospital was investigated for having some of the worst wait times in the country, which revealed that staff members were keeping a second paper waiting list for veterans — separate from the ones they used for their reports, so they could manipulate wait times. That investigation started a few months before the pair expressed concerns to VA officials in June 2014.
"We felt we weren't being heard within the organization," Meuse said. "And we're still not being heard. You have to reach out until someone hears you ... you can't go home and forget about it. We're talking about veteran's lives."
Tremaine, a four-year Air Force veteran, started working for VA in Denver about 25 years ago, after a procedure at the hospital went wrong and forced the amputation of his leg from the thigh down. He took the position in Montgomery after serving as an associate director in Springfield, Massachusetts.
Meuse, who raised her family in Alabama but worked at VAs all over the country, jumped at the opportunity to take a position at CAVHCS — near her home in Elmore County.
The two new employees started noticing the major problems at about the same time.
CAVHCS' public unraveling started last spring after the investigation became public knowledge, U.S. Rep. Martha Roby, R-Ala., who represents Montgomery, talked with Talton about the scheduling problems.
Talton told Roby that the staff responsible for the waiting lists had been fired, and a story was published about it in the Advertiser June 8. But a few days later, Roby said her office started getting anonymous messages and calls saying no one had actually been fired. It wasn't until after that conversation that Tremaine and Meuse decided to discuss problems with Roby when she reached out to them seeking more information.
Frustrated that she couldn't get in touch with Talton again, Roby called the CAVHCS switchboard looking for answers. Meuse, who was responsible for the public information department before the responsibility was taken away from her, called her back and told the truth: no one had been fired.
'Told ... truth, when no one else would'
"These whistleblowers told me the truth when no one else would," Roby said. "They were honest about the true extent of the problems and the failures of accountability that had created this culture at CAVHCS."
Roby has since been working with the Office of Special Counsel, the U.S. House Committee on Veteran's Affairs and the VA secretary's office to implement change at CAVHCS and make sure that Tremaine and Meuse were protected.
Roby said for those who have told the truth "to face intimidation or retaliation (is) wrong and quite frankly, it's insulting."
The concerns the two whistleblowers expressed in confidence to the regional network a day after the call with Roby were communicated to Talton that same day, according to a Sept. 15 transcript of testimony from Jackson, who at the time was deputy regional director, and a Sept. 23 transcript of testimony from Sepich.
Within a week, Sepich initiated a fact-finding investigation on Meuse and Tremaine, mostly centered on the communication with Roby and whether the two accused Talton of lying, according to a June 20 memo from Sepich.
Results showed there was no evidence that either of the whistleblowers had accused Talton of lying or that they had communicated such to other VA employees, according to a July 30 memo from the fact-finding board.
"We were honest and followed protocol, and told them we were contacted by the congresswoman," Meuse said. "We did our best to best represent the organization accurately and in a positive light without being deceptive. And we were investigated because of that."
Meuse was then sent on a three-month detail to a facility in Charleston, South Carolina where she was cut off from most communication with other CAVHCS leaders. She returned in October to give her testimony for an administrative investigative panel that had been assembled to investigate her and Tremaine.
A human resources consultant in Meuse's Oct. 28 testimony stated that the purpose of the investigation was to investigate "various allegations" involving CAVHCS' leaders.
But after the investigation was extended in January, Meuse found out in an email from a human resources consultant with Veterans Health Administration Labor Relations that the original scope was to look at whether the two whistleblowers conducted themselves in a way that was consistent with the VA's core values. The email said the scope included whether Meuse and Tremaine impeded organizational health, employee satisfaction and patient care.
The results are still not available, Meuse said.
"I think that the (investigation) was a sham," Tremaine said. "It's hard to violate any values when you're standing up and getting attacked for trying to uphold those values. And that's what we did."
CAVHCS officials, who were called for comment Tuesday and Wednesday, said they did not have ample time to respond because they needed to coordinate their statement with regional and VA Central Office officials.
Excluded from decisions
Meuse said there hasn't been any direct personnel action taken against them — they haven't been demoted, suspended or fired. But according to the Office of Special Counsel, retaliation can include any adverse action against an employee.
The two whistleblowers are regularly excluded from meetings and from access to information, they said.
When Jackson is off-site, Tremaine and Meuse should be next in line to be acting director for that period of time. But they're bypassed and acting Chief of Staff Srinivas Ginjupalli acts as director.
"We're supposed to be involved in everything. If you're part of the management team, you're responsible. You're supposed to be part of the advisory group," Meuse said. "And you can't advise when the director sits behind closed doors all day."
Documents show that a recently proposed reorganization of CAVHCS by Jackson and Sepich would have eliminated the assistant director position and significantly weakened the associate director position. Meuse said as the No. 2 and No. 3 leaders at CAVHCS, they should have been part of the discussions, but weren't.
"It might sound paranoid, but when you don't have access to the information you need to do your job, eventually you're going to fail," Meuse said. "They've cut us out of our responsibilities. They've watered down our positions."
Tremaine, who is directly in charge of six departments, said Jackson gives assignments to the chiefs of his departments and asks for information, reports and updates without involving him. A seventh department, human resources, was taken away from Tremaine when Jackson became director.
"It's like I'm not even here, honestly," Tremaine said. "I should be involved in everything going on here. It should come across my desk as the second in command at this hospital."
Tremaine said the chief of one his departments reported that staff members were selling small bottles of alcohol to patients. Instead of Tremaine handling it, Jackson asked another department to investigate.
Tremaine said he hasn't been included in any communication about the investigation since then.
"It's designed to minimize and humiliate me," Tremaine said. "It gives everyone in the organization reason to say, 'hey, don't trust (me).'"
The public affairs department were taken away from Meuse's services, she said. Chiefs who are supposed to report to her, report to Jackson directly, circumventing her completely.
"I know enough of the bad stuff going on, and I don't have any trust in the leadership to be forthcoming," Meuse said. "I feel responsible for things I have no control over."
More recently, Meuse said there have been significant delays in care at the Dothan and Columbus, Georgia facilities, but the two administrators don't have access to the information and are left out of meetings.
"I believe it is deliberate to enable cover-ups," Meuse said. "We have responsibility but not authority or respect."
Waiting-list woes
There are still a significant amount of patients at the VA Columbus Clinic who are supposed to be seen by the Roman Medical Group, a company that's being contracted to provide care to VA outpatients. Meuse said those patients initially weren't put on a waiting list, but since she no longer is being given access to that information, she has no way to know whether they've since been put on a list.
An internal CAVHCS clinical performance report shows that systemwide, there are currently more than 1,300 open consults that are more than 90 days old. In January 2014, the figure was about 1,072 and dropped dramatically to 337 by May.
But it's been growing since November 2014, when it was at about 959.
As of March 2, nearly 4,000 CAVHCS patients had been waiting more than 90 days for non-VA care, according to an internal CAVHCS report.
A July 7, 2014 report showed that there were more than 1,200 pending requests for care that were more than 90 days old.
"I continue to request information from (CAVHCS) about what they're doing to improve access to care for our veterans, and it's not looking as up as we want it to look," Roby said. "I'm still distrustful of some of the information they're giving us."
Todd Stacy, a spokesman for Roby's office who takes calls and tips from veterans, family members of veterans and VA whistleblowers, said they were focused on making sure veterans got care. But last year, as the office started getting information from Meuse, Tremaine and countless other whistleblowers, the seriousness of problems at CAVHCS became apparent.
"It went really deep — deeper than anyone could have imagined," Stacy said. "As the first bit of information started being exposed, more and more sources began coming forward, which led to major exposures."
One of those exposures was a situation where a veteran in the Tuskegee drug rehab program was taken by a VA employee to a crack house and left there for three days — but not before the employee "borrowed" money from the veteran and took him along to run personal errands in a government vehicle while on the clock.
Although Talton knew about the situation, the employee went unpunished for more than a year until the Advertiser wrote a story about the situation.
Meuse, who is retiring at the end of the month, said trying to do the right thing has taken a lot out of her in the past year.
"No one could have fixed this in six months or a year or even three years, but we could have addressed the transparency and started to improve care for veterans," Meuse said. "My loyalty to central Alabama is loyalty to our veterans and the public — but it's not to preserving a bureaucracy that has not demonstrated its trustworthiness."
Tremaine, who has been offered a "detail" in Birmingham, said he doesn't know what will happen to his job or his career. But he said the most important thing — the reason he is risking his career — is making sure veterans get the care they deserve.

The process can be burdensome for the average person, so most choose to use an experienced Nevada attorney to assist with the record sealing process.
Expungement is the process of having criminal convictions, charges or investigations completely removed from your record, as if they had never happened. Unfortunately, since expungement is not available in Nevada, our focus lies on criminal record sealing. Record sealing makes past convictions inaccessible to the general public without a court order. Effectively, most people conducting background checks are unlikely to access such records. Note that some organizations like the FBI may also still be able to access these records, so consider consulting who can and cannot see your files with a Nevada criminal attorney.
Because record sealing is so advantageous, Nevada courts are frequently inundated with record sealing requests. Therefore, the process of having your records sealed will be lengthy and require many bureaucratic maneuvers before it can be completed. Only certain criminal charges are eligible for record sealing. To qualify, the individual's sentence must have been completely carried out, including all probation time and community service. After this sentence is fully completed, a period of waiting time equivalent to the crime's statute of limitations must pass, starting on the day that the last element of the sentence was satisfied.
Additionally, you must apply for record sealing within each respective jurisdiction under which your conviction was made. A further important point to note is that Nevada state policy does not allow for partial record sealing; ALL crimes and charges must be listed on your sealing request.
Once you have established that your criminal cases are eligible, you must obtain a copy of your complete criminal records from both the Nevada Criminal History Central Repository and the respective police department under which your cases were filed, such as the Las Vegas Metro Police Department or the Henderson Police Department.
Mail all of these items to the Office of the District Attorney or their Record Sealing Coordinator in a paid 9" x 12" UNPADDED mailer with at least $2 postage.
If your attempt was successful, the District Attorney's Office will mail back all of your corresponding documents while keeping the ones they need. You may then submit the approved documents to the court clerk for filing. And to complete the process, the signed Order will be sent to the agencies requested to seal your records from those agencies.
If unsuccessful, Nevada allows for up to two re-hearings where you can submit your Order, Petition, and Affidavit while attempting to correct their reasons for denial.
You can review this helpful guide to record sealing in Nevada for more information or advice, but the process has the reputation of being time-consuming and confusing. You might want to consider getting the help of a Nevada record-sealing attorney to assist you throughout the process.

I was taking Progesterone in a cream that has lots of herbal ingredients etc., and concurrently used Progesterone in Coconut Oil which has no other ingredients.
From now on I'm only going to take Progesterone in forms without the added ingredients, but what I am getting today is very light spotting. I've been Menopausal for several years.
Only during the past 3 or four days did I start taking the oil based product vaginally and on the labia.
I've been taking 400 mg. Progesterone a day for about 2 weeks.
Also I have a slight headache. Other than that the Protesterone seems to be helping me with blood sugar levels, water retention, hair loss, and my facial hair, which had recently become coarse and thick, is softening.
The spotting FEELS to me like the relief I would get years ago when my PMS was over and my period started.
What do you think the cause of the spotting might be and what is your advise on how I should continue?

Hanson: Anthem
Entering into their second decade, Hanson have released nine albums in their twenty-one year existence starting with their debut record Middle of Nowhere ,released in 1997 when the brothers were 16, 14, and 11. The record not only made them instant stars, but their biggest hit "MMMBop" became a pop culture staple, landing at number 1 on the charts in over 40 countries with its squeaky vocals and a chorus that you couldn't resist singing along too. While the group was talented as teenagers, the group progressively got better as the years went by. Their second album This Time Around, released in 2000, was received well by critics and fans for its leap in musical maturity, but it ended up selling poorly. By 2004, it seemed like the group had plummeted into oblivion when they resigned from their label Island Def Jam, after a four year recording process to release Underneath, which also had dismal sales. Soon after leaving Island, the group began releasing their music on their own, forming 3GC records. Hanson's last three records The Walk, Shout It Out, and now Anthem are records that have been released on the group's own terms, and Anthem has proved that a band doesn't have to be signed to large label to have success.
The opener "Fire It Up" is the most closest that the band has gotten to writing a rock song, and for Hanson it works out well. Middle brother Taylor takes the lead on this track, and while he sounds polished and bluesy, the most noticeable difference is his enunciation when singing, which in previous albums has not been nearly so clear.
"I've Got Soul" is a disco and Bee Gees inspired track that shows Hanson at their best. The upbeat track takes you back to the 70's, demonstrating that the group can write music that is beyond their years. "You Can't Stop Us", is another rock tune with Zac Hanson's vocals coming to the forefront of the song. While his vocals on previous albums has been much weaker than his brothers, on "You Can't Stop Us", his vocals are projected where they become bright and strong.
"For Your Love", is a slow ballad which sounds bland, with not a lot of oomph or depth to make the song really memorable. While the music has some parts that go well such as the acoustic guitar intro with a flamenco sound and the piano giving off a haunting and reflective feel, "For Your Love" has more of a bland sound compared to Hanson's other ballads.
With each album they release, Hanson became better musicians and songwriters than the record before. While their lyrics aren't deep, they write relatable and catchy songs that do not get enough credit due to the shadow of "MMMBop," Anthem is the best album that Hanson have released so far, showing that they are capable of writing songs that are far beyond their years, while finally earning them the credit that they deserve.

Ciara has pumped the breaks on her "Jackie" tour again, but for a reasonable circumstance. The southern songbird revealed in a Facebook post that she's currently in the zone for her upcoming album, which needs most of her attention at the moment.
Ciara And Russell Wilson Take Baby Future To Dodger Stadium In L.A.
"Unfortunately, my upcoming tour is moving again.. Why?…I'm currently in the process of making the best album of my career!," CiCi started off the note. "I want to give all of you an incredible show… A show that you deserve! Therefore, I gotta stay focused in the studio and commit myself to this new music. I love you all, and I'm thankful for your unwavering support. I am excited for this journey to continue and look forward to seeing you soon!"
Her yet-to-be-titled project will serve as a follow-up to Jackie, which was released in May 2015. The album boasted singles "I Bet" and "Dance Like We're Making Love."

Q: Use ruby to convert the exif gps data array format to latitude and longitude floats When you retrieve exif data from a file, the coordinates are given to you in an array of 3 numbers.
i.exif['gps_latitude']
=> ["6/1", "4/1", "911/50"]

This needs to be converted to the more common float format for general use.

A: The most straight forward way I can think of is to convert the strings to Rational numbers:
arr = ["6/1", "4/1", "911/50"]

d, m, s = arr.map(&:to_r)
#=> [(6/1), (4/1), (911/50)]

And calculate the value of decimal degrees via:
lat = d + m / 60 + s / 3600
#=> (1092911/180000)

To obtain a float value:
lat.to_f
#=> 6.071727777777777

A: You can use the following code to make the conversion in ruby:
arr = exif.gps_latitude
pic.lat = arr[0].to_f + arr[1].to_f/60 + arr[2].to_f/3600
pic.lat *= exif.gps_latitude_ref == 'S' ? -1 : 1

arr = exif.gps_longitude
pic.lng = arr[0].to_f + arr[1].to_f/60 + arr[2].to_f/3600
pic.lng *= exif.gps_longitude_ref == 'W' ? -1 : 1

Syrian army expects to retake Palmyra 'within hours': TV
Columns are seen in the historical city of Palmyra, Syria, June 12, 2009. REUTERS/Gustau Nacarino
BEIRUT (Reuters) - Syrian soldiers and their allies advanced to within 1 km (half a mile) of Palmyra on Thursday and soldiers speaking from the outskirts of the historic city said they hoped to recapture it from Islamic State fighters within hours.
The Syrian army is trying to retake Palmyra, which the ultra-hardline Islamist militants seized in May, to open a road to the mostly IS-held eastern province of Deir al-Zor.
The recapture of the desert city would be one of the most prominent successes for President Bashar al-Assad since Russia launched a military intervention in September which turned the tide of Syria's civil war in his favor.
Palmyra is the site of ancient Roman-era temples and colonnades - many of them destroyed by the militants - as well as being a strategic link between the west and east of Syria.
"We are 850 meters from Palmyra city. In a few hours(government) forces will declare the city of Palmyra completely secure, God willing," one soldier told Ikhbariya television channel, in comments echoed by his comrades on the front.
One of the soldiers said they had cleared around 120 explosives from the 'Palmyra Triangle' road junction area as they approached the city from the west.
Syrian television quoted the field commander as saying the road into Palmyra was now open to government forces after they took control of hills overlooking its approaches.
Earlier, the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group reported clashes on the outskirts of the city as government forces, backed by Russian and Syrian warplanes, made advances.
Russian President Vladimir Putin, who said last week he was withdrawing most Russian forces, predicted on Thursday that the Syrian army would retake Palmyra soon.

"Hard to describe such a special place. We will remember Footsteps for a very long time and feel we stayed there much longer than just three nights. They certainly gave John a birthday to remember with a surprise lunch venue under an acacia tree, and a cake and singing in the evening. So much wildlife nearby and in the camp itself, and Noah was absolutely exceptional and tireless as a guide, backed up by the other staff looking after us superbly."
"Perfect! So simple, so close to nature. It was so funny having hippos snuffling (roaring actually) round our tents as they fed. Hearing how the camp was managed and seeing how simply we could live was an eyeopener - particularly to see where our lovely food came from. The kitchen was amazing and they were clearly very proud of it. They were such a nice group of people. They read us perfectly: I had worried that our kids might not be engaged by the activities but there was no need for concern. I think they would have done anything for OP!"
"Even Cathy was impressed with the bush shower and toilet. Probably not the right place for her to get ill (probably dehydration/heatstroke) especially with frequent visits from elephants and hippos when on her sick bed, but the staff were very caring and considerate, even contacting the next camp to make sure she was better. Jaw dropping food from the 'magic box' in the kitchens."
"The guiding is superb, we really enjoyed our walking safaris and even managed to see some wild dogs on their evening hunt. The food was wonderful as the was the bath under the stars. A really lovely camp."
"The tented accommodation was good, with plenty of hot water available when required. The staff were excellent and the food provided was exceptional. How they manage to cook it in such remote conditions is beyond me and would many a top chef to shame. We were able to do walking and fortunate to ride in a mokoro in the delta."


The couple reportedly got engaged just days before Nonoo traveled to New York for Meghan Markle's baby shower.
Today, Misha Nonoo is in New York City, celebrating her close friend Meghan Markle's baby shower. But earlier this week, the fashion designer reportedly got engaged to her boyfriend Michael "Mikey" Hess.
According to the Daily Mail, Hess posted about their engagement on his private Instagram account, sharing a photo of the proposal, which took place in Cabo San Lucas.
"Thank you for making all my dreams come true, Misha Nonoo," reads the caption. "I am so in love with you, and I feel so lucky I get to spend the rest of my life with you right beside me."
Ahead of their wedding, here are a few things you should know about Nonoo's husband-to-be.
He has a lot of high-profile friends.
Hess and Josh Kushner both went to Harvard for college and business school, and the two have been very good friends for some time, a source said. He's also been friends with model Heidi Klum for several years.
He has a knack for being in the right place at the right time.
In 2016, he sat in what Town & Country dubbed "the most interesting box at the US Open" along with Princess Beatrice of York, Karlie Kloss, Dasha Zhukova, Geffen, Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner, Hollywood agent Michael Kives, Wendi Deng, billionaire Leon Black, and his father, John Hess.
His grandfather started the Hess Corporation.
Leon Hess, who died in 1999, founded the Hess Oil and Chemical Corporation in the 1930s and later purchased the New York Jets and owned the team for more than 15 years. His son, Michael's father John B. Hess, is now the Hess Corporation CEO. Michael followed in his father's footsteps by attending Harvard College and Harvard Business School.
He has all the private-school bonafides.
Hess, 31, grew up in New York City and went to Buckley, Deerfield, Harvard College, and Harvard Business School.
He and Nonoo have reportedly been dating since 2018.
Hess shared images of himself and Nonoo on Instagram Stories when the two attended the royal wedding at Windsor Castle in May. "Getting morning suit ready," he captioned one shot that showed Nonoo adjusting his collar, according to the Daily Mail. More recently, Nonoo shared photos of the pair in Italy on her own Instagram Stories.
Michael Hess and Misha Nonoo attend the royal wedding on May 19.
His 30th birthday party in the Hamptons in 2016 featured performances by Nelly, Taylor Swift, and Leslie Odom, Jr. Heidi Klum posted a video of Hess joining Nelly onstage.
He also goes by Mikey.
At least on his Instagram account, which is private but was cited in a 2007 New York Times story for its "photographs of Mick Jagger close-up in concert, courtside seats at a Knicks game and stops on his trips around the world."
He has worked in finance.
According to his biography on the website of King's Academy, whose board he joined in 2014, Hess "has worked at KKR & Co. and has also held positions at Goldman Sachs and the Royal Hashemite Court." Now, according to a source, he's an entrepreneur who helps start businesses focused on logistics and construction.
He has a philanthropic side, too.
Hess has supported the Pediatric Heart Center at Boston's Children's Hospital and the Make-a-Wish Foundation in addition to serving as a trustee of King's Academy.

Telford United have a formidable record in the FA Trophy.
The clubs record of five appearances in the final is unequalled and only Scarborough and Woking can match the three occasions the trophy has been lifted by the Bucks. Telford appeared in the first ever FA Trophy final at Wembley in 1970, losing 2-0 to Macclesfield Town, but returned the following year to bring the trophy back to the Bucks Head.
AFC Telford Uniteds best performance in the competition to date came in the 2008/09 season when Rob Smiths side defeated Gainsborough Trinity, Boston United, Hayes & Yeading United, Kettering Town and Southport before a 4-1 aggregate defeat by York City in the semi final.
