With $500,000 Already Raised, About 1,000 Families Across the US to Attend Akshaya Patra's First Virtual Gala in Boston
Vandana Tilak
BOSTON—Approximately 1,000 families from across the United States will attend Akshaya Patra's first "virtual gala" in Boston on May 3, according to an official from the non-profit organization, which serves hot and nutritious school lunch to 1.8 million children in India.
"We have already raised half a million with the help of Boston local sponsors," Akshaya Patra's Ankita Narula told INDIA New England News.

Akshaya Patra, the world's largest mid-day meal provider which holds its Boston fundraising gala every year, is hosting an unprecedented virtual gala this year in response to Covid-19 crisis.
The Virtual Gala scheduled for May 3rd at 5.30 pm EST is unheard of and hosted by Akshaya Patra's Boston Chapter team and donors. The gala features two keynote speakers. Ashish Jha, a professor at Harvard Chan School of Public Health, is much sought after in the media as an expert on COVID-19 and Prof. Kash Rangan, who teaches at Harvard Business School, and is familiar with Akshaya Patra.
In an earlier statement Akshaya Patra Foundation USA CEO Vandana Tilak had said that children need to be fed and that the organization's fundraising will not stop.
"As everything on the Planet is going through a metamorphosis, we ourselves need to change how we view things and operate under the new conditions, without giving up our commitment to share what we have with those less fortunate," Ms. Tilak said earlier.
Akshaya Patra's experience in food preparation and distribution, with 55 kitchens nationally, has allowed the organization to quickly address the food crisis made worse because of the pandemic.
The cost per food box that feeds two people for 21 days is $25.00.
In the US, Akshaya Patra planned and executed 40 benefit events in 2019. With the possibility of not being able to have live events, changing course by planning out the technology, the logistics and using the tremendous opportunity to rally the community together, the organization has finalized a virtual gala, open to anyone on the globe.

To register for the virtual gala, please email to contact@apusa.org.

Creating "Brighter Futures for Children"
See what we did there… You may have seen a number of adverts and video content published by us recently – this is due to our partnership with Brighter Futures for Children who are responsible for the delivery of Children's Services in the town.
With the Civic Offices based opposite The Oracle shopping centre in the heart of Reading, the company is wholly owned by Reading Borough Council, but run by an independent Board of Directors. This gives the company the flexibility to strive for the best possible outcomes for children.
The organisation live by their core values which are:
Honest – transparent and open about how we work
Creative – not bound by convention
Caring – every decision made in the best interest of the child
Quality-driven – efficient, effective and professional
Respectful – we will value diversity
Responsible – a prudent organisation and a good partner, using limited resources wisely
As an organisation, they have access to Department for Education transformation fund money to ensure that their social workers have all the tools they need to do a great job, which in turn achieves manageable caseloads. Brighter Futures are committed to working with staff through coaching, mentoring and support, offering permanent staff great training and development opportunities. We have vacancies to suit everyones needs and can arrange interviews at short notice:
Multi-Agency Safeguarding Hub
Access and Assessment consists of four teams that deal with all s17 and s47 assessments. The Family Intervention Service picks up cases from the Access and Assessment Teams. This is longer-term work with Child in Need, Child Protection and cases within the Public Law outline. With average caseloads of between 18-20 (and a commitment to keep them manageable) Brighter Futures for Children is definitely a place where you can focus on working with Children and Young People.
Reasons to live in Reading
Reading is the county town of Berkshire, located in the heart of the Thames Valley. It has a mix of traditional town centre and mall shopping, with familiar names as well as independent shops. There are a variety of restaurants and bars, and a strong cultural scene. People who live in Reading regularly praise its:
Excellent train services for commuters (set to improve with the arrival of Crossrail)

Tired shoppers can rest their feet in one of the arcade's many cafés, restaurants and bars. The town also boasts three smaller arcades: the Bristol and West Arcade, the Harris Arcade and The Walk where you'll find smaller, more specialist shops. Broad Street is another popular shopping destination, with shops including John Lewis, Marks & Spencer and Primark. For markets, head to the street market held in Hosier Street, or check out the famers' market that is held for two days every month in the city centre.
History and heritage: Wander around the ruins of Reading Abbey, once one of Europe's largest and wealthiest medieval centres. It was founded in 1121 and now sits in the Abbey Quarter in the centre of the town. Reading Minster is also worth a look around.

Festivals: The town is the host of the Reading Festival, one of Britain's most popular music festivals. It draws large crowds every year to hear international and up-and-coming bands.
Beer is also celebrated at the Reading Beer Festival. It's held over the May Day weekend and regularly offers more than 500 different ales to sample. You can celebrate the town's riverside heritage at Waterfest. This annual event includes boat parades and huge water fights.

Out of the Blues is the nineteenth studio album by American singer-songwriter Boz Scaggs. The album, a mixture of vintage classics and four original compositions by close friend Jack "Applejack" Walroth, is the last in a trilogy that began with 2013's Memphis and continued with 2015's A Fool to Care. The album contains covers of songs by blues musicians including Bobby "Blue" Bland, Jimmy Reed, Magic Sam, and Neil Young. It was released on July 27, 2018, on Concord Records
Nuclear Blues is an album by the band Blood, Sweat & Tears, released in 1980. This was the band's eleventh studio album and their first release for MCA/LAX Records. Nuclear Blues was produced by Jerry Goldstein, who had previously been known for his work with the band War. Even though it had only been three years since they released their last album Brand New Day, the band contained a new line-up with David Clayton-Thomas being the only remaining member from that period.

December (The Moody Blues album). December is the sixteenth and final album by The Moody Blues.

It is also their first album following Ray Thomas' retirement from the band. Don't Need a Reindeer" (Justin Hayward) – 3:59. December Snow" (Hayward) – 5:11.
Read about Attack by Blues Explosion and see the artwork, lyrics and similar artists. The Blues Explosion is an American garage rock band formed in 1990 in New York City. After the demise of Spencer's . band Pussy Galore, he teamed up with guitarist Judah Bauer and drummer Russell Simins to form The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion (sometimes abbreviated to JSBX). They were known by this name until 2004, which Spencer changed because "It's always been a band, never a solo project," saying "the name change honors a band.
A microphone is a device that converts mechanical energy waves or sound into electrical energy waves. In 1931, the ribbon microphone was introduced by RCA, and became one of the most widely used microphones for the vocal recording and broadcasting industries. It was considered by many as the most natural sounding microphone ever made. The ribbon microphone was very heavy, about 8 lb (. kg), and could easily be damaged by shock or blowing into it. Variations of the ribbon microphone are still use today. Official reports stated he suffered a heart attack while bathing, but his body was only seen by a doctor and Morrison's common-law wife. A legend arose that Morrison was not really dead. His tomb is in the Poets' Corner of the Pere-Lachaise cemetery in Paris, near the graves of Balzac, Moliere, and Oscar Wilde.
Some of the most viscerally powerful recordings ever made are acoustic blues. But finding where to place the needle amid the haystack of pre-war records can be hit-and-miss. Here, Michael Messer - one of Britain's finest traditional blues guitarist - offers a soul-shaking intro to the style. Robert Johnson - The Centennial Collection. At the moment, this is the best re-master of the whole catalogue. When it comes to acoustic blues that's related to rock 'n' roll - because there are so many strains - Johnson has to be the greatest

A basic rule of thumb for feeding a raw diet is to feed 2% of your dog's body weight. So if you have a 50 pound dog, they would be fed 1 pound of raw food per day.
Unless you plan on buying a heavy duty meat grinder and grinding your own chicken necks and backs, a wonderful source for a complete 100% Organic Raw Chicken Diet is a company called Nature's Variety. Their frozen diets can be found in select Pet Food stores across the US and Canada. The company has a store locator for on their website. Should you wish to prepare raw food yourself for your canine companion, there is endless information available online as well as many books on RAW food and BARF diets for Dogs.
There are many companies that prepare and sell raw meals for dogs, but one of the only ones I have found that prepare an exclusively 100% Certified Organic line is NaturesVariety.com, I am sure there are other companies out there who make organic raw food, but make sure it is just that, ORGANIC. I have seen many companies who state they use "Organic ingredients when available", which I do not trust. Natures Variety Organic Raw chicken comes in small 1 oz medallions which are great for small breeds and is also available in 8 oz patties for larger dogs.
Make sure if you decide to go with a store bought raw food you don't forget to add more fresh raw pureed veggies and of course your Dog Greens!
This recipe is easily pureed so it can be syringe fed to animals whose illness has caused them to lose their appetite. While animals will instinctively fast when they are ill which is natural and can be helpful in healing, it is important not let them go without food for more than a few days.
Below you will find recipes broken down into Daily Amounts based on your dog's weight.
Add a dose of Dog Greens to each meal as recommended in daily program schedule immediately before serving.
Soak beans in filtered water until re-hydrated (approx. 8 hours), soak nuts/seeds as well in a separate bowl. Both can be soaked in the refrigerator. Strain beans, get a crock pot (slow cooker) and put the beans in and cover with about an inch or two of fresh water. Turn on low and let cook overnight. In the morning when beans are fully cooked (soft) let cool, chop up some fresh organic fruit and veggies (greens, baby greens, red pepper, tomato, carrot, zucchini, sprouts, etc.) add them to the crock pot with the cooked beans along with the soaked and drained nuts or seeds then add enough water so you can blend it all up with a hand blender (immersion blender) until it is pureed.
Scoop out enough for your dog's meal based on his weight above, crumble or chop tofu and mix in along with the a dose of Dog Greens and the Oil Blend. Store the remaining bean mixture in fridge for future meal(s). Feel free to cook larger batches of the beans and freeze unused portions for later use. Beans can also be cooked in a pressure cooker, this way is very fast but you must watch carefully. You may also cook the beans in a regular stainless steel or glass pot on the stove but this takes much longer and must be monitored.
*any organic plant based oil blend that says 3-6-9 omegas preferably with DHA, UDO's makes a very nice one.


There used to be a few Krispy Kreme Doughnut shops within a few miles of my home but they closed up a few years back. If you wanna go back before that, Mr. Donut and Velvet Creme also used to be within driving distance to me (that's right, some old school doughnut mentions). I'm a fan of the Krispy Kreme shop experience because I can go in and buy a couple of doughnuts and be done with it. If I go to the supermarket and buy any of the packages, a minimum of 4 to 6 doughnuts will always end up hard as a rock. And no coffee or cafe con leche dipping can save them.
I knew this new location had opened up in Palmetto Bay but I totally forget about it until I was driving down US1. Everyone jocks on the "Hot Now" sign which you do find at this location. I don't see some extensive contraption baking the doughnuts so I'm gonna go ahead and assume they found some way to make them minus all of that production. I'm also not the doughnut police so I'm not about to question them about it. I ordered 2 doughnuts, one regular and chocolate.
The original just melted in my mouth, just as expected. The chocolate while not old, had the consistency of what you'd find in the supermarket.
The moral of this story? Stick to the original and get two while you're at it.
Thanks for the heads up. I remember Mr. Donut and Velvet Creme was an establishment. It was sad to see them go. It perplexes me how a donut as bad and underwhelming as Dunkin's has wiped out all competition.


Advancements in insulated glass, and increased regulations regarding carbon emissions, are expected to grow the sales of energy efficient glass into the next decade. According to BIS Research, a market research firm located in Bloomington, Minn. that specializes in emerging technologies, the global energy efficient glass market is expected to reach about $18 billion by 2026, which represents a nearly 20 percent increase from 2016.
Automation in the glass industry is growing. As Industry 4.0 continues to trend upward, glass manufacturers are finding ways to increase productivity, speed production flow, anticipate potential breakdowns, and mitigate problems.

Special Issue "Access to Higher Education in Competitive Marketplaces: A Critical Appraisal of Policy Aims to Reconcile Equality of Opportunity and Marketisation"
We are seeking submissions to this exciting Special Issue of the journal Social Sciences. This initial call is for interested scholars and researchers to submit short abstracts (of 250 words, by 1st February 2019) from which authors will be selected to submit full papers (5–8000 words) by late summer 2019, with an expected publication date of Autumn 2019, approximately two months after submission of final manuscripts.
Since the 1970s, higher education has been influenced and re-shaped by neoliberalism, which advocates the application of market principles to areas which were formerly regarded as being in the public domain. While there are differences in view over the extent to which higher education operates as a 'pure' market or a 'quasi-market' or whether it simply displays 'market-like' features, the reality of marketisation is beyond dispute, and its impact on higher education institutions (HEIs), their staff and students—and the relationships between them—has been profound. This call is specifically aimed at identifying instances of neoliberal marketisation that have impacted on equalities (or inequalities) of access. It acknowledges that such effects have played out differently in different national and regional territories (Bowl, McCaig and Hughes 2018), dependent on the specifics of historical, political and cultural contexts. Therefore, while we welcome theoretical analyses of neoliberal marketisation as a social and economic phenomenon, we are particularly interested in examining the relationship between national context and policy pressures to marketise HE systems.

Unistone Bianco Assoluto is a quartz stone with a brilliant white tone that brings luminance and glow to any interior area in which it is displayed. It is made out of up to 93 per cent pure crystalline natural quartz and resins which provide stability in colour across it surface, contributing to an overall sense of neatness to any design in architectural decoration.
Different to pure white marble, Unistone Bianco Assoluto is made in an industrial setting and whilst it is a product that remains natural in terms of its looks, it does not have the inherent risks of staining that marble present for interior applications such as kitchen worktops and bar counters.

Interview With Magician Ed Sumner About His Top 5 Magic Themed Movies
MOVIE MAGIC:
5 FILMS WITH MAGICIAN ED SUMNER
Now You See Him: Magician Ed Sumner
Mesmerizing large audiences since the mid-Victorian period, the world of stage magicians has always been an interesting, intriguing and mysterious one for those of us on the outside looking in. While the theme has been a reoccurring one in cinema from its inception in the late 19th century, over the last decade the genre has spiked in attracting big budget attention. Discussing his top five favourites, we ask popular magician Ed Sumner of MagiciansBlog.com fame what it is about these recent smoke and mirrors movies that makes them so enjoyable, and how the magic in them meets up to the standards of a professional magician.
Dir. Neil Burger
Set in Vienna at the end of the 19th century, this is a tale of Eisenheim (Edward Norton), a magician who wins over the affections of a noble woman he is forbidden from developing a relationship with. Hampered by Crown Prince Leopold (Rufus Sewell), Eisenheim must keep his wits about him in order to survive the wrath of the ruling class tyrant. 'No list on magic films would be complete without these top two (along with the next one, found below), released around the same time in 2006,' says Sumner, 'and The Illusionist is my favourite of the two'.
Impressed by the magic in the film, there is one scene which grabbed Sumner's attention above all else. 'It has some great magic in it,' he says, highlighting 'an early scene where an orange falls at a reduced speed. This effect, along with many others in the film, was done for real, without any CGI. Magic is amazing, right?'
While for the most part Sumner finds the movie 'a pleasant film, the storyline is easy to follow' and 'enjoyed the Austrian setting and the characters', there is one sequence which makes magicians want to perform a vanishing act. 'The scene in the Crown Prince's private residence is quite tense. I've never had a private gig that was that awkward!'
Apparently Norton is magical with his light balls
The Illusionist:
'Nothing is what it seems'
The Prestige AKA Wolverine vs Batman
Dir. Christopher Nolan
A film about viciously competitive stage magicians in early 20th century London, The Prestige has more twists than a box of Christmas tree lights recently brought down from the attic. 'It has a complex story with a few twists, so it's probably worth watching a couple of times, to pick up those things you don't see the first time' explains Sumner, who rather than provide us with spoilers, suggests for the full impact we should see the film ourselves, 'I'm a magician, so I'm not giving any secrets away'.
As a performer, 'the film is interesting to me as it mirrors real-world historical examples of stolen tricks among magicians'. Apparently the cruel relationship between fictional rival magicians Robert Angier (Hugh Jackman) and Alfred Borden (Christian Bale) is not as far-fetched as a Hollywood script might lead you to believe. 'Similar rivalries took place in the past' explains Sumner, 'such as the rivalry between John Nevil Maskelyne and Harry Kellar, who had a dispute over a levitation illusion. This came to a head during one performance when Kellar got up on the stage, unannounced, to see the working behind Maskelyne's illusion'.
Now You See Me (2013)
Dir. Louis Leterrier
The most recent release of all the films on this list, Now You See Me is a magic-based heist movie featuring an all-star cast which includes Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Woody Harrelson, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman and, err, Isla Fisher.
'The heist storyline seems very Hollywood to me,' admits the Staffordshire-based magician, 'but I guess that's what sells. It has some good magic in it, and some things which might need to be taken with a pinch of salt'.
While undoubtedly an entertaining spectacle, there is one aspect of the magic world he feels the film got very wrong. 'There is a line where Jesse Eisenberg's character says that as a magician you should always be the ''smartest person in the room''. It's a nice thought, but a little arrogant!' admits the entertainer and Magic Circle member. 'Personally, I run my business by surrounding myself with people who are smarter than me and can help me to reach my goals by offering their advice and expertise. I think magicians are at their best when they work together, rather than having a massive ego - but I guess that wouldn't have sounded so great in a Hollywood film!'
The Magnificent Seven. And Isla Fisher.
Love is inescapable, and so is Catherine Zeta-Jones.
Death Defying Acts (2007)
Dir. Gillian Armstrong
Concerned with the last days of the most famous magician of all time, Harry Houdini (Guy Pearce), Death Defying Acts sees con artists trying to get him to part with $10,000 after he challenges psychics the world over to be able to tell him what his mother's dying words to him were. A box office flop, 'this film is a little more obscure and not everyone has heard of it' confesses Sumner.
'In the film a group of con artists try to claim the money, but of course first they need to find out what those words are. I really enjoyed this film, but a word of warning, although some things in the story are based on real events, this film is in the main a work of fiction, so don't study it for your Houdini history exam'.
Is Anybody There (2008)
Dir. John Crowley
Set in 1987 Britain, Is Anybody There is a touching tale which bridges the generation gap between a young boy and an old performer.
'Michael Caine, who is in three films on this list, plays Clarence, a retired magician who makes friends with a ten-year-old boy who lives at an old people's home run by his parents. As an elderly man in the early stages of dementia he guides the young boy by teaching him about life, death and magic. It's a fun film with a unique story, and although there's not much magic in it, it's definitely worth a watch'.
If you're interested in finding out more about magic and illusion then head over to Ed Sumner's blog where you can find advice on learning magic and news from the magic community.
Caine has doubts as to whether it's worth braving the British weather to go to the weekly 70+ bingo

Let's use this performance to hone our competition skills. Our next contest is in 11 days!


Rangers manager Mark Warburton believes Huddersfield Town Academy graduate Josh Windass has already repaid the club's faith in bringing him to Ibrox.
Windass and former Town teammate Matt Crooks signed pre-contract agreements with the Glasgow giants in January after impressing at Accrington Stanley.
And Windass, 22, has lost no time in making an impression in his new surroundings.
The Ibrox boss raised eyebrows earlier this year when he decided to sign a player from England's fourth tier who few fans knew much about.
However, Warburton reckons the son of former Hull City striker Dean has hushed his detractors after just two outings.
Windass immediately stood out on his debut against Motherwell with his driving runs and continued that success against Annan at Ibrox.
Now he has been tipped to match the impact made by the other previously unknown recruits who took Rangers to the Ladbrokes Championship title last term.
Warburton said: "Josh has already shown his quality. He's got a change of pace, a dynamism in the final third and he's clever on the ball.
"So with him, I think you will see another young player - just as you will with Joe Dodoo and Jordan Rossiter - pushing really hard.
"They haven't come here to make up the numbers. Josh is a really exciting talent. We're delighted with his progress so far. It's early days and he knows what he has to do but we believe there is a real player there."
Meanwhile, Warburton has confirmed Crooks is still three weeks away from returning to action after an ankle injury.

Council considers virtual attendance at meetings
Eisenberger says e-participation should be 'last' not 'first resort,' writes Andrew Dreschel
By Andrew DreschelContributing Columnist
Hamilton Spectator
Sun., April 1, 2018timer3 min. read
Mayor Fred Eisenberger believes virtual participation in council meetings is the "way of the future."
But it'll be up to Hamilton council to decide if electronic participation — including voting — is around the corner or not.
Whether councillors should be allowed to take part in council and committee meetings via video or audio links goes before the governance subcommittee this Thursday.
City staff are looking for direction in light of changes to provincial legislation that now allow city councillors across Ontario to electronically join in open session meetings.
The legislation stipulates that a councillor who is taking part in a meeting remotely can't be counted for determining quorum — the legal minimum of members required to make the meeting valid.
Nor will disembodied councillors be allowed to participate in confidential closed-door meetings.
But other than that, councils can decide for themselves whether virtual participants should be recognized as in attendance or permitted to vote.
"I think it's the way of the future for sure," said Eisenberger, adding the boards he sits on already permit voting by techno participation.
Eisenberger stresses e-participation shouldn't be the habit or rule for councillors and their physical attendance at meetings is of "paramount" importance.
But when a councillor is on vacation or unable to attend for other legitimate reasons, Eisenberger believes virtual attendance is a good option and "positive step."
"From my perspective ... it ought to be a last resort instead of a first resort."
If council pursues e-participation, staff has flagged a number of questions: Will it apply to all meetings? Will e-presence be by audio, video or both? Will meetings be delayed if there are techno glitches? Does electronic participation uphold the principles of openness and transparency?
Staff figures e-participation will require about $8,000 in upgrades to committee rooms. The cost for integrating it with the current online video service to council chambers is pegged between $5,000 and $7,000.
Perhaps those who worry it will be used to avoid attending meetings might take comfort in this: The allure of being physically seen and heard for self-promotional political purposes will always be like catnip for councillors.
Speaking of self promotion, Eisenberger denies his "Community Update 2018" that was mass distributed throughout the city last Thursday was a piece of electioneering.
"This is not an election issue at all. I think it's my responsibility to share with people what's been going on as much as I can and this is just one way of doing it."
The 11-page newsletter, highlighting council's achievements, was distributed to 230,000 households via The Spectator and Hamilton Community News, both owned by Torstar Corp.
The mayor's office budget covered the $30,000 production and distribution cost. A big photo of Eisenberger is on the cover and his name appears five times. His photo also pops up a couple of times inside, as does a council group shot.
This is the first time Eisenberger, who is seeking re-election in fall, has done this. Is it a little too coincidental that it's landed in an election year?
Not so, says the mayor. He'd like to do it every year but it's too costly. Timing wise, he wanted to do it late last year but was convinced by his office staff to wait until this year's budget was done.
The idea, he says, is to have a "direct line" with constituents without any kind of media filter or "inflection," not that he has any issues with the media.
As to why he appears so prominently — well, you know, "I am the mayor, after all. If I'm going to deliver something from my office than they need to know it's from me."
Eisenberger only gave councillors a heads-up the day before the flyer was delivered. But it's hard to imagine they'll complain.
Since it only dwells on the positives and not the political bumps (HSR absenteeism) blunders (LRT delays) and fiascos (ward boundaries review), the newsletter will be a handy campaign tool for all incumbents who are running in October.
Andrew Dreschel's commentary appears Monday, Wednesday and Friday. adreschel@thespec.com @AndrewDreschel

Seven Deadly Sins/Nanatsu no Taizai (Seasons 1-4): A Little Formulaic at Times, but Still Fun – Netflix Anime Mini-Review
It's always fun to watch bad guys be the best good guys.
In the land of Brittania (not to be confused with any real place with similar name), the kingdom of Liones lived in relative peace until the king was overthrown by the Holy Knights, his elite armed forces. The Princess, Elizabeth Liones (Sora Amamiya/Erika Harlacher), set out to find the exiled warriors who previously betrayed the Holy Knights, the Seven Deadly Sins. She actually manages to find Meliodas (Yūki Kaji/Bryce Papenbrook), the captain of the Sins, and the pair embark on a quest to find the others. They succeed in locating four more of the group: Ban the immortal (Tatsuhisa Suzuki/Ben Diskin), Diane the giant (Aoi Yūki/Erica Mendez), King the Elf (Jun Fukuyama/Max Mittelman), and Gowther the doll (Yuhei Takagi/Erik Scott Kimerer). The five, later joined by Merlin the sorceress (Maaya Sakamoto/Lauren Landa), manage to liberate the kingdom from the Holy Knights, only to discover that the entire takeover was engineered to release an even greater threat: The demonic Ten Commandments. Together with the seventh Sin, Escanor (Tomokazu Sugita/Kyle Hebert), the group must stop the Demon Clan from taking over Brittania.
But only King wears a hoodie.
END SUMMARY
I will admit that when I first checked out this series, I had already read some of the manga, so I think I might have expected too much of it. The anime is a pretty faithful adaptation, particularly compared to some others that I've seen, but it didn't feel like it added enough for me. As a result, I kinda bailed after the second season. However, since the manga has wrapped up in the interim, I decided I wanted to see how the story ended. So, I checked it out again and I will say that they did get a little bit better at layering extra imagery onto the anime that wasn't in the manga to keep it fresh.
They did a good job on some of the possession movements, for example.
The main thing that I liked about the series at the beginning was that most of the main characters were, in fact, depicted as sinners. Meliodas was a pervert who constantly groped Elizabeth (which she apparently liked, but is still wrong) and was presumed to be concealing an impossible amount of rage beneath his joking facade. Ban was a thief, King was responsible for his species nearly being destroyed, Diane constantly tried to force Meliodas into a relationship with her, Gowther was literally amoral, Merlin was willing to experiment on people without their knowledge, and Escanor, as is true to his sin, was the embodiment of haughty pride. Having protagonists with such flaws almost always makes the story more interesting, but they tried to make a few of them a little more likable at the cost of removing that moral ambiguity. Still, the personalities and character traits are pretty solid for a show like this.
Seriously, dude, not cool.
It also helps that the show references a diverse number of mythologies, either directly or via allusion, and that it builds on elements from them to quickly create a world that contains a huge number of species and cultures. The show has traditional fantasy races like elves and giants, but also celestial and demonic forces that are a blend of DnD and Abrahamic religions. Arthurian mythology is directly invoked, as is modern vampire mythology and even some Western pop literature.
I mean, there's an Arthur Pendragon who rules Camelot. That's… blatant.
The biggest problem, for me, was that the series had to do the Dragon Ball Z thing of having to constantly level up the powers of the characters in order to keep them as the underdogs. The series even gives you a "power level" reader just to make sure that you understand that these threats completely outclass our protagonists, such that when the Ten Commandments are first introduced, one of their number is stronger than all of the Sins combined. This seemed almost unnecessary because the Commandments also had innovative powers that could have made them a threat even if they were just even in power. Still, so many series have done this, I can hardly hold it against them. I just appreciate it more when series, like One Piece, for example, at least hint from the beginning that this kind of power exists in the world, so that it doesn't just feel like the narrator saying "well, you beat Bob the Unbeatable, now you have to beat Tim the More Unbeatable who we didn't mention before now."
Screw you, Tim.
Overall, I do still think it's a solid series. Plus, it has an apparent end point in the next season or two, so you don't have to worry about sitting around 10 years from now waiting for the arc to finish. Lookin' at you, One Piece.

DoroHeDoro: It's Glorious and Gorey… Goreous? – Netflix Anime Mini-Review
I take a look at the story of a guy with a reptile head and his martial arts chef friend.
Welcome to the Hole. It's basically a city from Mad Max, except that magic wrecked the world instead of nukes. Sorcerers, a mutant species of humanity created by demons from hell that live in a different dimension, periodically come to the Hole to experiment on the humans that live there. One of those humans was Caiman (Wataru Takagi/Aleks Le), a man who was cursed by a sorcerer to have a giant lizard head. Caiman awoke without any memories and found out that when he puts his mouth around a Sorcerer's head, that a second person crawls out of his throat and decides if that Sorcerer is the one that cursed Caiman. I know that sounds weird, but it's literally the opening of the show, so get used to it. He's accompanied by his friend Nikaidō (Reina Kondō/Reba Buhr), a local chef and expert fighter. The pair work together to eliminate Sorcerers from the Hole and find out who cursed Caiman. They end up drawing the ire of the Sorcerer gangster En (Kenyu Horiuchi/Keith Silverstein) and his lackeys: Shin (Yoshimasa Hosoya/Sean Chiplock), Noi (Yū Kobayashi/Cherami Leigh), Fujita (Kengo Takanashi/Bryce Papenbrook), and Ebisu (Miyu Tomita/Cristina Vee).
Masks are very popular in the show.
From the very beginning, this show makes it clear that it's not going to shy away from being pretty dang gross. Not only do you see a human being emerge from the throat of a lizard man, you then see a person essentially minced into a number of pieces too great to count. The wood chipper from Fargo was probably more forgiving to Steve Buscemi's body. This sort of thing happens frequently in the show, although the cartoon effects do lessen the disturbing nature of some of the acts. This show's not for the faint of heart, is what I'm saying.
No, he's not eating him. This is diagnostic.
The world that's been built here is never fully elaborated on, but what we see of it keeps drawing the viewer further in. Sorcerers basically view humanity as lab rats to be experimented on, with very few humans willing to stand up to them. When we see the range of their abilities, this unchecked domination starts to make a lot of sense. Almost all Sorcerers only have a single ability, like "creating mushrooms" or "bringing stuff back to life," but those are sometimes taken to horrific ends when it's revealed that one of the sorcerers can literally just turn people into mushrooms or that bodies don't have to be whole when they're resurrected. It's like everything is taken to a twisted natural conclusion. This includes the fact that once a year, the Hole's dead come back to life as zombies due to the amount of magic that the Sorcerers leave behind.
Some sorcerers are not just strong, but nearly invulnerable, so there's that.
The characters are compelling in that nobody really seems to be the "good" guy or the "bad" guy. Caiman is a victim, sure, but he also massacres people for his own enjoyment. Nikaido is the closest we have to an altruist, but she has her own secrets and past issues. En seems malicious, up until you find out that he was the ultimate victim in his youth and is seeking to break up a horrible societal problem. Most of his henchmen are similarly ambiguous. Everyone kills people or Sorcerers pretty frequently. It makes for a lot of interesting scenes where we know everyone's motivations, so we feel extra invested in the conflicts.
The character designs are also a nice blend of form and function.
Overall, it's a pretty good show. Glad I checked it out.

Newcomer Sichuan Hot Pot is Already a Tongue-Tingling Hit in Asia Town
By Douglas Trattner
Photo by Douglas Trattner
An extravagant facade in Cleveland's old Chinatown quickly gives way to a somewhat disquieting landing. A block-long exterior along Rockwell Avenue, the recipient of a recent beautification project, welcomes visitors with a showy procession of gilded doors, jade-green awnings and stately columns in royal red, the color commonly associated with joy and luck in the Chinese culture. But open the internal door that leads into Sichuan Hot Pot and you're forced to muscle your way through a vinyl strip curtain, the sort commonly found inside a walk-in cooler.
Fears of dining in an icebox quickly dissipate, however, thanks to numerous wide-brimmed bowls of simmering broth that fill the room with a heady, humid vapor of exotic spice. Around those hot pots, animated groups of young Asian diners use chopsticks to shuttle raw ingredients from plate to pot to mouth with nimble fluidity.
Just when you think that Cleveland's Chinese restaurant scene can't possibly get any better, when stalwarts like Siam Cafe, Li Wah and Szechuan Gourmet are joined by thrilling additions such as Han Chinese and LJ Shanghai, along comes Sichuan Hot Pot to gobble up some of the attention. And deservedly so, as die-hard fans of tongue-tingling Szechuan cuisine can't seem to stay away from the relative newcomer.
I know I can't, which admittedly is a rare sensation given my crowded dance card. But I carve out time for places that excite, delight and challenge me the way that Sichuan Hot Pot does, even after back-to-back visits. Fans of the cuisine, like me, crave the electrifying spiciness of authentic Szechuan food in much the same way that those with a sweet tooth lust after boxes filled with sugary donuts.
As is the case at other Asian eateries in the area, the menu here is intimidatingly long and obtuse, with terse designations augmented by a smattering of photos. Chinese characters precede English letters, while tabletop specials placards are entirely without English. But that shouldn't stop intrepid diners from wading in, even if the waters are somewhat unfamiliar.
Most meals start with a cold appetizer, like the omnipresent cucumbers ($6), gleefully crunchy wedges tossed in a sweet, tart and spicy vinegar-based dressing. On the other end of the textural spectrum are the wontons ($6) that come bathed in an aromatic roasted chili sauce. There's heat, but it takes a back seat to the earthy, toasty spice blend. Other cold starters include thinly sliced pork belly with chili garlic sauce ($8) and dry beef with special sauce ($16). That last one might best be described as an acquired taste, not because of the flavor, which is deeply captivating, but for its chewy, jerky-like texture that comes from the dry-fry process.
If you think that bean curd is boring, order the mapo tofu ($9) here to disabuse yourself of that belief. At once electric and comforting, this witch's brew of fire, spice and savory goodness is what it's all about. Tongue-tingling Szechuan peppercorns provide numbing cover so that you can keep spooning the crimson stew onto steamed white rice and devouring it. We took a flyer on a dish called, simply enough, sliced beef with hot pepper ($16) and we did not regret it. Tender, silky and wok-hot slices of stir-fried beef languish in a dark, seductive and pungent sauce. Cabbage, leeks, celery and bean sprouts provide a little crunch.
Part soup, part stir-fry, the shredded pork with pickled cabbage ($8) swaps the incendiary chiles for the more subtle punch of preserved vegetables. A deep bowl of flat noodles in chicken broth is capped with a nest of slender pork strips and crunchy-sour pickled mustard greens that tickle the tongue in a completely different way. There's a winter-appropriate spicy beef noodle soup ($8) with chiles that will warm even the coldest of cockles.
There is always room on the table for vegetables like eggplant in garlic sauce, sauteed Chinese spinach, garlicky green beans or springy pea shoots. If you want more than the complimentary white rice, consider ordering the twice-cooked pork fried rice ($9). The well-seasoned side is studded throughout with melt-in-your-mouth slices of fatty pork and briny fermented black beans.
And then there are the namesake hot pots, with innumerable iterations of spicy and non-spicy broths — or a combination thereof, thanks to a two-sided pot — meats, seafood, veggies and dipping sauces. Design your own experience from a lengthy list that includes items like fried tofu, enoki mushrooms, eggplant, tripe, pork blood curd, spicy beef, fish filet, shrimp, Spam and squid balls, to name only a few. This is social, communal food that's meant to be shared with adventurous friends who can't seem to get enough of those exhilarating, intoxicating chilies, spices and peppercorns.
My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

The Curse of Kathmandu
04/28/2015 05:32 pm ET Updated Dec 06, 2017

They called it "the big earthquake" -- and many in Kathmandu had anticipated and feared it for years. The last big earthquake near the capital of Nepal took place in 1934, causing several thousand deaths and destroying half the city. Seismologists postulated that it was a cycle that repeated itself every 80 years: the next big quake could come any moment. But optimists hoped that the worst was behind Nepal.
The topic came up time and time again in conversations between Westerners I met during the time I lived in Kathmandu, three years ago. Most were preparing for what could come: technical specialists would go to the homes of those who worked in international organizations to analyze a home's capacity to resist an earthquake, determining the structure's weak and strong points to find the ideal location for shelter.
Those of us who had smaller budgets settled for finding homes that appeared truly solid, with pillars set deeply in the ground, and with buying an American anti-earthquake alarm that claimed to anticipate the moment of the brutal quake by 10 vital seconds. We all had an emergency bag prepared, a survival kit that we placed in a safe place in our homes' patios or gardens, which contained food, drink, clothing, flashlights, and water purification tablets. And one more thing: we had to be in contact with the European embassies -- I got assigned the French one -- in case the earthquake came and an emergency evacuation plan was activated.
It was the curse of Kathmandu, a city of beautiful temples nestled in a valley, where there is so much clay in the ground that when the monsoon rains come, the tarless streets become a pool of mud. Only an emerging Nepalese middle class could afford to worry about whether the structures of their homes were earthquake-resistant, as my landlord, Mr. Shyam, told me when he rented the apartment to me. But most people, in a country with so much inequality, live in the thousands of houses that have proliferated like mushrooms in the valley of Kathmandu, without regulations or planning, in the past 20 years. Others lived in typical old Nepalese homes made of red brick and wood, narrow, poorly ventilated, and difficult to leave in a hurry. The only thing left to do was pray.
Religion and resignation are ingrained in a society that was very isolated until the 1960s, and where a strongly rooted Hindu caste culture coexists with an incipient modernity.
Among the generation that is between 20 and 40 years old, some have traveled outside their country, consume global cultural products, and experience their bodies and sexuality with greater freedom than their parents. But in Nepal there are still many who think that things depend only on divine plans, that we each have our own fate, and that the individual and collective will to change things does not matter much if the cosmos and the transcendent are not turning in that direction. It's what the Nepalese anthropologist Dor Bahadur Bista referred to as "fatalism."
Nevertheless, local and foreign NGOs have been trying to raise awareness among residents and the political class for years about the possibility of another massive earthquake, and Nepal's vulnerability to such an event. But Nepal's government has fallen far short of fulfilling its citizens' needs, despite the billions of dollars they have received in aid. Since the '90s, Nepal has endured a civil war between the state and Maoist guerrillas, a regicide, a new king -- later toppled -- a federal republic, more than 10 prime ministers, failed constituent assemblies, endemic corruption, and the continued lack of a constitution.
"This is the state's fault: they knew that this was going to happen because scientists anticipated it. And they have not done anything. Architects said that old houses had to be torn down, but nothing happened, only some protection programs in the schools," my friend Arun, who works as a tour guide and has been taking care of his clients all day, told me through chat. Saudat, another good guy I met there -- who always wore a biker's helmet until he left to study in Australia -- hopes that "this will be a turning point for our country, because it has been a catastrophe." Another friend, Achyut, who taught me the nuances of Eastern philosophies, told me today that it was the most awful horror he had ever seen: "10 hours of tremors between the earthquake and the aftershocks."
How can we help a country with a precarious sanitary system, a capital with a trouble-plagued airport that is extremely difficult to access by road?
According to Arun, "There is no power, and people are on the streets because the tremors come back time and time again." And he thinks there will be many more dead, because "there are a lot of people buried and there are still those in the villages, that we don't know anything about."
"What can we do to help from here, Arun?"
"I don't know, honestly."
But it's also true that the Nepalese are strong, resilient. Battle-hardened, like my good friend Dipendra, who welcomed me and my girlfriend when we got to Nepal, and who took care of us, guided us, and protected us for months, until the very afternoon when I returned to Spain. One day I was walking with him on the street, fixated on the topic of earthquakes, and I asked him how he could be unworried.
"I don't have another option, Jorge. Otherwise, I couldn't live."

Election results challenged in court
In late November Botswana's main opposition party, the Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC), appealed to the High Court regarding disputed results in 13 constituencies in the October general elections.
The Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) won the general election, securing 38 seats out of total 57. The BDP finished ahead of the main opposition coalition, the UDC, which took 15 seats, followed by a newly established party of a former president, Ian Khama (who was a member of the BDP while he was the head of state), the Botswana Patriotic Front with three seats and another opposition party, the Alliance for Progressives, with one seat. However, the UDC has alleged that electoral fraud (including the tampering of seals on ballot boxes and faint marking on ballot papers) was committed in 13 constituencies. According to the charges filed by the UDC, the president, Mokgweetsi Masisi, other members of the BDP and the Independent Electoral Commission were allegedly involved in perpetrating electoral fraud.
If the High Court were to rule in favour of the UDC in all 13 constituencies, it would significantly reduce the BDP's seats in parliament, reducing it to below the 29-seat threshold required for a party to form the government. Botswana does not hold a direct presidential election, and the leader of the party that wins a majority of the 57 contested parliamentary seats becomes the president. Therefore, a ruling in favour of the BDP would also threaten Mr Masisi's position as head of state. The High Court is expected to start the trial in the coming week and is likely to deliver the verdict in the next month (or within 90 days as stipulated by law). Although a massive victory in the southern part of the country, which has traditionally been an opposition stronghold, was not anticipated by many observers, it is not impossible that it actually happened. Furthermore, only scant evidence has emerged regarding electoral irregularities, and hence we expect that the court will not find enough evidence of fraud to nullify the results. Botswana is one of Africa's most stable democracies, with strong institutions, and we expect the opposition to accept the High Court's verdict without instigating political instability or indulging in post-electoral violence.
Our forecast of the BDP retaining political hegemony throughout the 2020-24 forecast period remains unchanged.
Implications of the US election result for Africa
Greater interest in Africa is likely under a Biden administration, but the continent might already have moved on.


Today we feature a baker who's story sounds all too familiar for home baker's who have attempted starting small home based businesses in the state of Kentucky. This is Joanna's story in her own words.
"Families have traditions. Every Christmas my mom baked and iced cookies that she used to decorate our tree and that she gave friends and family as gifts. She used a butter knife to spread icing on them. They weren't fancy but they tasted amazing and everyone looked forward to Kathy's Christmas cookies. She got the recipe from the mother of her best friend in college, now more than 50 years ago.
When I got married I started using the recipe and thanks to Martha Stewart I picked up a few cookie decorating skills using pastry bags and tips. I started making the cookies not only at Christmas, but for other holidays as well. I especially loved making Halloween cookies! Many times over the years friends have urged me to sell the cookies. I never even gave it a second thought. Two years ago this October I happened to post a photo of my Halloween cookies on Facebook and a new acquaintance saw the picture and asked if I could make her some to give to her children's teacher. I thought why not? And that was the beginning of JO-Made Cookies.
My customers were friends and acquaintances in my community. My advertising was word of mouth. I put together a Facebook page to showcase the cookies I made. I bought lots of new cookies cutters, looked for ideas on Pinterest, and watched YouTube videos of new techniques to ice cookies. I slowly got better and more confident. I was so excited to find something that I was pretty good at, that people enjoyed, and at the same time earn a little extra money while raising my family. It was the perfect small (minuscule) business. I had the flexibility to take care of my family, help out at my kids school, go to their sporting events and make cookies around our schedules all while earning some income to supplement my husbands teacher's salary.
That all changed early this year when one morning there was a knock on my door from the health department. Someone had sent an anonymous email reporting my business and two other local home bakers. I had to cease my baking immediately. We weren't reported for making someone sick or an issue with our products. We don't know for sure who reported us but we can only assume it was someone threatened by our success. The other two bakers, unlike myself had been baking for years out of their homes without ever a complaint or problem.
Our customers were furious and disappointed. They knew we were baking from our homes. They were comfortable with this. My customers came right into my home and my kitchen to pick up their cookies. We were devastated. I started reading and for the first time learned about cottage food law. I discovered pretty quickly that Kentucky was one of only a few remaining states that made it virtually impossible for a home baker to work legally from home. If I lived just about anywhere else in the country I would be able to be licensed and inspected in my home and continue to bake.
I wasn't sure what to do next. I surely didn't want to give up this business and passion I had created. I knew my customers would be loyal. I had to regroup and figure out how to move forward. I located a really great commercial kitchen and am currently renting space there. I realized right away that although this is a fabulous resource for small food businesses just getting started, it wasn't quite the right fit for me. My product is custom and made to order and icing cookies takes a long, long time. Working out of a commercial kitchen is a way for me to keep my business going but long term it is not a financially feasible option. I am actually losing money at this point.

A good blog post is made up of text, links and images. Every part of a post fits under one of those three categories. Your headline, your SEO, are all about optimizing your text but images are very important. The eye is drawn to graphics. If you're just using stock clip-art, you're wasting an opportunity to tell a story within a story.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Just like text, those thousand words can be fluff or they can be valuable. How can you go about picking useful or compelling images, without breaking the bank? Because the fees associated with many images online is a roadblock for many bloggers.
Ways to find images. You have three options when searching for a picture to use with your post -- create an image of your own, purchase a stock image or find a free image.
Stock images can be relatively cheap, and some image services are perfectly viable, but even a $1 fee for each image, with three images per post, one post per day, is more than $1,000 per year on images alone. Cutting out such an expense can be the difference between making a profit or not.
Creating images yourself requires tools and skills you may not have. You'll probably want to create some images, particularly when you're dealing with statistics. An infographic branded for your blog can be a great source of traffic, after all. Then again, investing in the skills, equipment, software or graphic designer fees needed to regularly create your own images is likewise a heavy expense annually.
The third option is to find free images you're able to use legally. Legally is the key here. You can pull any image you find in a Google Image Search, but if the person who owns the rights to it complains, you can find your blog at the center of a legal battle you certainly can't afford.
Method 1: Free image websites. There are dozens of stock photo websites around. They all work on the same principle. You create an account and gain access to a database of images you can freely use. Some of them place restrictions on how you can use the image, or alter it. Others require attribution, either to the site or to the creator of the image. Still others are completely free in every sense of the word.
The key to using these sites is finding one that hosts the sort of images you want to use. Some stock services are filled with only certain types of images – landscape scenes, photos of people, pictures of animals – and their theme might not suit your needs. Poke around and find a few good resources. It costs you nothing but your time.
Method 2: Photographer permission. Sometimes, you may come across the perfect image to illustrate your post, only to find no details about its availability. In these cases, track down the photographer to ask if you can use the image with attribution.
Some photographers will shoot back with a price quote, which puts the image outside of your price range. That's fine, walk away and find a different image. Just don't try to argue that your blog's exposure is valuable to them, or that their price is too high. It makes you look unprofessional and insulting.
Method 3: Creative Commons searches. "Creative Commons'' is a phrase thrown around fairly often in image articles, but it can be surprisingly confusing. The general Creative Commons license is essentially free public domain; take the image and use it in any way you please. However, there are actually six levels of creative commons licenses, each with different attribution requirements. Make sure you aren't using an image inappropriately.
You can easily find Creative Commons images through Flickr or Google's image search. On Google, simply check the "usage rights" drop-down from the search tools menu.
With these methods, you should be able to find free-to-use images for every blog post, saving you time and money.

The Ma'atefet is conducted by the Society for Advancement of Education for the Student Authority of the Ministry of Immigration and Absorption.
– Assisting immigrant students to learn in the best possible conditions and to successfully complete their studies to receive a degree/certificate.
– Encourage immigrant students to become familiar with the country and strengthen their feeling of belonging to Israeli society and culture.
– Empower immigrant students to fulfill their potential while bridging gaps in language, culture, immigration crises, economic difficulties and more.
– Provide tools for integrating into the society both during their studies and for suitable future employment.
– Personal Support – counseling and personal accompaniment from field staff, counselors who are students themselves, who are spread through academic institutions throughout the country. The counselors are in ongoing contact with the immigrant students and are a significant resource for every need.
– Academic Support – The goal of the academic assistance is to assist the students in successfully coping with the academic assignments and to give the student the tools to succeed in exams and complete his/her studies. The academic assistance includes financial support for academic assistance through the learning institutions.
– Therapeutic Support – The immigrant student community faces three different kinds of crises simultaneously: the crisis of immigration; questions of identity that characterize young people in general; and challenges of entering an academic system. As a response to these challenges, the project operates a service for private therapy with social workers.
– Social Support – In the framework of Ma'atefet, students participate in social events, educational and values based activities that constitute a framework for creating a group to which they belong, familiarity with the country and a network of peers.
– Shahak – The Community Social Service Program is a volunteer program for students. The program is intended to enable the students to get to know other aspects of Israeli society up close, to be exposed to populations in need, to create a process of change in status from a new immigrant to an active contributor to Israeli society.

Line-of-duty police deaths surge in 2020 as coronavirus, calls to 'defund' pose challenge to officers' safety
Violence surges in cities amid defund the police movement
Former homicide detective Ted Williams gives reaction and analysis on 'America's Newsroom'
The number of police officers who have died in the line of duty in 2020 has jumped by nearly 60% compared to last year as the ongoing spread of the coronavirus continues to take its toll on America's men and women in blue.
The National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund is reporting 210 total fatalities this year — a 58% increase from the 133 it recorded in 2019.
"The year 2020 has proven to be a horrific year for law enforcement," the organization told Fox News in a statement. "America's law enforcement officers were confronted with the pandemic, protests, and defund police movements, which made it not only one of the most challenging years in recent memory, but one of the deadliest."
POLICE, LAW ENFORCEMENT HAVE BEEN HOT-BUTTON ISSUE IN 2020

"The National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund has confirmed that the COVID-19 pandemic has accounted for more officer line-of-duty deaths than firearms or traffic fatalities combined," it added. "NLEOMF has also determined that the total number of fatalities will be the largest since the terrorist attacks in 2001."
Preliminary statistics on the memorial website indicate there were 118 deaths this year from "other causes" such as the coronavirus, while 48 were "firearms-related" and 44 were "traffic-related." The organization plans to issue a final report in early January.
Statistics from the Officer Down Memorial Page, which also tracks the deaths of officers in the U.S. and its territories, indicate that a higher number have died on-duty this year: 296, with the contagious virus being by far the leading cause. Last year, it reported that 148 officers died in the line of duty.
The website is attributing 179 of this year's deaths to complications caused by the coronavirus, 45 to gunfire and 20 to automobile crashes, amongst other sources.

Capt. Jonathan Parnell of the Detroit Police Department became the first officer to die from COVID-19, according to the Officer Down Memorial Page. He passed away on March 24, following a law enforcement career that spanned more than three decades.
The 296 deaths this year are also the highest annual total that the Officer Down Memorial Page has recorded since 1932, when it tracked 318 deaths.
"The only constant in 2020 has been the ever-changing challenges that law enforcement officers have faced — from a pandemic to civil unrest," Patrick Yoes, the national president of the Fraternal Order of Police, told Fox News.
"The demonization of police has made communities and law enforcement jobs less safe. Violence targeting police officers is on the rise," he added, citing the FOP's own data. "The number of officers shot is up 7% from last year's historic numbers and up 29% compared to 2018. As of December 28, 311 officers have been shot, and 47 of those officers have died this year."
B.L.U.E. Help, an organization that tracks law enforcement suicides, also has recorded 159 this year.
"However, throughout all the adversity, our nation's law enforcement officers will continue to put themselves in harm's way to protect and serve the communities that we love," Yoes said.

Together with FACC, IWK has developed a composite annulus filler for the next generation of Rolls-Royce jet engines. The part comes as metal replacement, thus saving weight and increasing safety, and is manufactured in a cost-efficient RTM process.
Composite Annulus Filler to be mounted between the engine's fan blades.
Within the CleanSky funding scheme of the EU Framework Programm 7, Rolls- Royce, FACC and the IWK Institute for Material Technologies and Plastics Processing have developed a novel composite annulus filler for jet engines. An annulus filler covers the gap between the fan blades and ensures an optimal aerodynamic profile. The project included concept development, design, dimensioning, process development, manufacturing and destructive and non-destructive testing.
Targeting lower weight, the current aluminium annulus filler will be replaced by a composite component. The reduced mass leads to lower fan disk load and helps save material, costs and energy. In addition, in the highly unlikely event of a filler detaching from the rotating hub, the resulting damage to surrounding components is reduced due to the failure mechanism of composites, where energy is distributed across the casing. This further helps optimizing casing design and weight.
Starting from several feasible designs, the most promising concept has been evaluated, based on different boundary conditions such as mechanical properties, safety, costs and manufacturing aspects. Sophisticated finite element simulation and parallel experimental verification allowed further optimization of the composite filler. The component is manufactured at FACC (Fig. 2); testing started in early 2014. After spinning rig tests, the first flight of the ALPS demonstrator engine, mounted onto a Boeing 747-200, took place on October 14, 2014 in Tucson USA.
