Which of the two mitochondorial membranes relate to bacteria according to the endosymbiotic theory?
I seached for endosymbiotic theory in Wiki and I found this about endosymbiotic theory:
Symbiogenesis, or endosymbiotic theory, is an evolutionary theory which explains the origin of eukaryotic cells from prokaryotes. It states that several key organelles of eukaryotes originated as symbiosis between separate single-celled organisms. According to this theory, mitochondria and plastids (e.g. chloroplasts), and possibly other organelles, represent formerly free-living bacteria that were taken inside another cell as an endosymbiont, around 1.5 billion years ago.
But I couldn't find any answer for my question, so I decided to ask:
According to this theory and differences between inner and outer mitochondria and plastid membranes, which membranes (outer or inner membranes) of mitochondria and plastids (e.g. chloroplasts) relate to bacteria?
And why do mitochondria need to have a double membrane?

The inner membrane is that of the engulfed bacteria. The bacterium would have been phagocytosed by a larger cell. Hopefully you can see in this image the smaller cell being engulfed in the membrane of the larger cell:

$\begingroup$ How and why is the second membrane made? $\endgroup$ – user12874 Jan 25 '15 at 19:01
$\begingroup$ @Majid Look at the top left image. The outer membrane is from the larger cell. It surrounds the smaller cell and eventually pinches off. Read about phagocytosis for more information. $\endgroup$ – canadianer Jan 25 '15 at 19:03
$\begingroup$ @Canadianer - yes but in the present situation (nowadays), is the outer membrane organelle-based or host-cell-based? I think that is Majid's question. +1 $\endgroup$ – AliceD♦ Jan 26 '15 at 13:41
$\begingroup$ @ChrisStronks That is entirely unclear to me since the question is about embosymbiosis. In any event, the majority of lipids in the mitochondrial membrane are imported from the endoplasmic reticulum. Some, however, are synthesised by mitochondria in the inner membrane. Lipids can be transported between the two membranes. $\endgroup$ – canadianer Jan 26 '15 at 17:00

3 win Nobel chemistry prize for molecular machines
Stockholm, Oct 5: Frenchman Jean-Pierre Sauvage, British-born J Fraser Stoddart and Dutch scientist Bernard Feringa today won the Nobel Prize in chemistry for developing molecular machines.
The laureates share the 8 million kronor (USD 930,000) prize for the "design and synthesis" of molecules with controllable movements, which can perform a task when energy is added, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said.
The academy said molecular machines "will most likely be used in the development of things such as new materials, sensors and energy storage systems."
The chemistry prize was the last of this year's science awards. The medicine prize went to a Japanese biologist who discovered the process by which a cell breaks down and recycles content. The physics prize was shared by three British-born scientists for theoretical discoveries that shed light on strange states of matter.
The Nobel Peace Prize will be announced on Friday, and the economics and literature awards will be announced next week.
The Nobel Prizes will be handed out at ceremonies in Stockholm and Oslo on December 10, the anniversary of prize founder Alfred Nobel's death in 1896.
Nobel, the inventor of dynamite, wanted his awards to honour achievements that delivered the "greatest benefit to mankind."

Just wanted to make a note that I've updated my software Deep Breathing and have added a new software called LifeTimer.
DeepBreathing has been redesigned and has added more options for how to play back sounds. I am planning to do some more programming on it to have it save your settings and perhaps even to save your own presets, and perhaps will incorporate new sound options as well.
LifeTimer is a new program for timing various things in life. It includes a Timer (Stopwatch), an alarm where you can create different alarm presets (i.e. Green Tea, Black Tea, Nap) and when the alarm is finished it opens up a dialog and beeps, and a Work/Break Cycle that you set how long to work and how long of a break to take and it will repeatedly do each one until you turn it off, playing a sound at the beginning of each work and break period. It's good for setting up regular breaks to avoid RSI as well as implementing the (10 + 2) * 5 Procrastination Hack from 43folders.com.

Leduc RCMP say they've closed the book on an alleged sexual assault from earlier this year.
Last month, police said a woman had reported it happening on a date at Telford Lake, where she'd met up with a man she'd initially connected with through an online dating app.
On Tuesday, police confirmed that after an extensive investigation, they've determined that the accusation had been fabricated.
No charges were laid, as the case has since been closed.
Leduc Police are looking for more information into an alleged sexual assault that took place last month here in Leduc.
RCMP say the victim and the suspect met through an online dating app at Telford Lake back on January 13 where the alleged incident took place.
According to police, the suspect was driving a blue 4 door Toyota car and it's believed the person in question lives in Edmonton.
The male suspect is described as white with blonde hair, brown eyes, standing 6 feet tall with a fit build, possible acne on their face and wearing a box style necklace.

Madden NFL 17 Players that Declined the Most
Well the guys placed below this Madden NFL 17 article are said to have declined based on the numbers that Madden 17 has given them. Whilst this does not mean all that much, you might want to skimp on buying them or just try to sell them because these guys are getting old. Now let's see who is close to kicking the bucket according to Madden 17.
Zach Ertz, PHI (from 87 to 84)
Jermaine Gresham, ARI (from 84 to 77)
Evan Mathis, ARI (from 88 to 78)
Mike Iupati, ARI (from 86 to 77)
Ryan Clady, NYJ (from 84 to 74)
Trai Turner, CAR (from 84 to 74)
Russell Okung, DEN (from 82 to 73)
Mike Daniels, GB (from 92 to 87)
Oliver Vernon, NYG (from 91 to 87)
Johnathan Hankins, NYG (from 81 to 76)
Paul Soliai, CAR (from 80 to 75)
Dan Williams, OAK (from 88 to 77)
Dontari Poe, KC (from 85 to 79)
Vince Wilfork, HOU (from 84 to 77)
Tamba Hali, KC (from 90 to 83)
Terrell Suggs, BAL (from 90 to 86)
But fret not, these guys from Madden 17 are still pretty much football starts… So don't be getting any ideas now.
Well I guess Madden NFL 17 has a harsh view on some of these guys but can you really trust a game here? These are real people with soul and spirit; their ratings in Madden NFL 17 do not really need to reflect on them in real life… This being said though, screw them when it comes to picking players, they all got old dude. Madden NFL 17 is for the young hip kids… Dawg…

Northeast of Burney lies one of the least-visited state parks in California, and for a pretty obvious reason: You can only get there by boat. Ahjumawi means "where the waters come together" in the language of the region's Pit River Native Americans, and several major watersheds convene here: Tule River, Fall River, Big Lake, Ja She Creek, and Lava Creek. The park, about 80 miles northeast of Redding, is also home to one of the country's largest freshwater springs, all in a wild and primeval setting of aqua-hued bays and tiny, tree-topped islets.
Fortunately, you don't need to have your own canoe or kayak to access the park. Eagle Eye's Kayak Guide Service, based in McArthur (roughly a half-hour drive south), offers kayak tours and rentals. Headwaters Adventure Company in Redding also has gear for rent (including racks for your car), and guides are available for groups of five or more—a smart idea if you're not experienced paddlers. Outfitters can also share details on how to get to the park, where to launch, and what to pack, including binoculars for abundant wildlife. You'll likely count more deer than people, and bald eagles and ospreys nest in the juniper trees.
If you've got time and love adventure, consider camping here for a night or two. There's no need for advance reservations—chances are good you'll have these turquoise waterways all to yourself. Rugged lava flows cover about two-thirds of the park's 6,000 acres, all crisscrossed by a network of trails. Hike the nearly five-mile Spatter Cone Loop Trail to see volcanic features and big views of 14,179-foot Mount Shasta and 10,457-foot Lassen Peak. Along the park's shoreline, look for prehistoric rock fish traps built by the Ahjumawi people to catch trout. Today, fly-fishing is hugely popular in the region; get details on licenses (required for ages 16 and over) and seasons from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.

How Do You Find A Rate Of Change In Standard Form?
How do you find the local rate of change?
What is the rate of change on a graph?
How do you find the average rate of change?
Is average rate of change the same as slope?
What is the difference between rate of change and average rate of change?
How do you find the rate?
What is the formula for rate of change?
What is average rate of change?
What's standard form in math?
What is standard form in math for kids?
What is the standard form of a quadratic function?
How do you write an equation in standard form?
One answer is to take an average rate of change by taking two points on the graph and finding the change in y divided by the change in x.
For example consider the function f(x) = x2 and its graph.
Two points on this parabola are (0,0) and (2,4).
The average rate of change here is ∆y ∆x = 4 2 = 2..
The rate of change of a function is the slope of the graph of the equation at a given point on the graph. The tangent line to the graph has the same slope as the graph at that point.
Percentage Change | Increase and DecreaseFirst: work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.Increase = New Number – Original Number.Then: divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.% increase = Increase ÷ Original Number × 100.More items…
Introduction: Average Rate of Change The slope is the average rate of change of a line. For a line, it was unique in the fact that the slope was constant. It didn't change no matter what two points you calculated it for on the line. Take a look at the following graph and we will discuss the slope of a function.
A rate of change tells you how quickly a quantity is changing. For example, the speed that you are moving at is the rate of change of your position. An average rate of change tells you the average rate that something is moving at over a period of time.
Use the formula r = d/t. Your rate is 24 miles divided by 2 hours, so: r = 24 miles ÷ 2 hours = 12 miles per hour. Now let's say you rode your bike at a rate of 10 miles per hour for 4 hours.
A rate of change is a rate that describes how one quantity changes in relation to another quantity. rate of change=change in ychange in x=change in distancechange in time=160−804−2=802=401. The rate of change is 401 or 40 . This means a vehicle is traveling at a rate of 40 miles per hour.
The average rate of change between two input values is the total change of the function values (output values) divided by the change in the input values.
Standard form is a way of writing down very large or very small numbers easily. 103 = 1000, so 4 × 103 = 4000 . So 4000 can be written as 4 × 10³ . This idea can be used to write even larger numbers down easily in standard form.
standard form is the usual way of writing numbers in decimal notation, i.e. standard form = 876, expanded form = 800 + 70 + 6, written form = eight hundred seventy six.
The graph of a quadratic function is a parabola. The general form of a quadratic function is f(x)=ax2+bx+c where a, b, and c are real numbers and a≠0. The standard form of a quadratic function is f(x)=a(x−h)2+k.
The standard form for linear equations in two variables is Ax+By=C. For example, 2x+3y=5 is a linear equation in standard form. When an equation is given in this form, it's pretty easy to find both intercepts (x and y).

Canadian franchise bankers have learned a great deal about opportunism (self-interest with deceit) from their franchise bar friends.
Canadian franchise bankers
Paper to Industry Canada
1. Modern franchising creates opportunism by separating ownership from control.
2. Economic theory indicates fraud is likely to occur with credence goods or services. Franchise industry system owners, lenders, consultants and lawyers provide credence services.
3. Franchisors sell franchises not only to the public but to their industry peers. A sophisticated fraud model has been developed. Franchisors licence their franchisees' opportunism to financial institutions and consultants.
4. Fraud requires a tolerant environment.
5. Malfeasance is minimized with a free flow of information regarding material investment risks. The Canadian franchise industry is characterized by high levels of information flow on the all levels with the dramatic exception of the small business investor.
6. The most accurate, independent reputation data is held by those with the greatest barriers of communication.
7. There is sufficient internal and external evidence to warrant halting franchised loan claims and to notify the appropriate federal and provincial agencies for evaluation.
8. Further research is warranted.

Minister Moore: Please recognize within federal insolvency law the interests of franchisees, their staff, and families.
Since 1970, United States federal and state regulations have recognized the distinctive vulnerabilities within the franchisor:franchisee relationship.
The 1,140,000 employees, 76,000 franchisees, and $15.2-billion invested within franchised outlets in Canada deserve to be as protected just as well as our friends to the south.
The Target and potential for Tim Hortons are good examples of the Harper government's commitment (via immediate Ministerial discretionary powers) in proving the Canadian entrepreneurial class is not useful only as cannon fodder.
Some of the laws that may need updating.

How can 3G Capital guarantee "no staff cuts" at the 3,600 CDN Tim Hortons franchisee-owned stores?
Industry Canada may not understand franchising: who actually employs these 96,000 Canadians.
Theo Moudakis / Toronto Star
But how can 3G Capital (buyers of U.S. Burger King in 2010) offer any assurances that the 1,100 or so CDN franchisees won't be forced to lay off their staff once their gross margins and equity are "right-sized?
Is 3G Capital:
incompetent,
willfully misrepresenting things to Canadians and our duly elected politicians, or
admitting that they are "joint employers" (with the franchisees) of those 96,000 franchisee employees?
Note recent charges against McDonald's by the U.S. National Labor Relations Board: NLRB Charges McDonald's as Joint Employer with Franchisees.
The National Labor Relations Board filed 13 cases against McDonald's Corp. (NYSE:MCD) and its franchisees this month, alleging they violated the rights of employees, who worked at McDonald's restaurants at various locations across the country.
The government agency's complaints state that McDonald's and its restaurant owners made statements and took actions against fast food workers for engaging in activities that aimed to improve their wages and working conditions. They accuse the parties of interfering with nationwide protests organized by unions over the past two years over their terms and conditions of employment.
Protect franchisees and they will protect their staff.
Are Canadian federal officials either 1. or 2. (see above)?
Is organized labour and others who wants a $15 minimum wage for the 1,140,000 franchisee-employeed staff in Canada?
How about Industry Canada who risks public taxes while guaranteeing $1.4 billion of franchisee business loans (1999 to 2007).

Opportunity Knocks and Liars' Loans: required reading to understand modern franchising
John Lorinc wrote the book on franchising from a franchisee's investor viewpoint.
I'm glad to see it is still available to buy online and is in many Canadian libraries.
The hidden banking side is revealed in Chapter 4, The 90% Solution: Franchise Economics, some of which I excerpted in a WikiFranchise.org post.
What did the business press have to say about Lorinc's work?:
National Post: Opportunity Knocks: The Truth about Canada's Franchise Industry, is an impressively researched look at the myriad of franchises that mushroomed across the country in the past decade. An award-winning magazine journalist, Lorinc has produced an engaging account that charts both the spectacular successes of some franchisers and the utter failure of some franchisees. How franchises seduce those with the most to lose, Jennifer Lanthier, November 2, 1997
Globe and Mail: At its worst, Lorinc says, franchising is a haven for the unscrupulous who prey on the unwary – typically recent immigrants willing to labour long hours in dreary businesses, unaware that those operations have little chance of prospering – using them as pawns in a shadowy real estate game. Rather than reflecting an insatiable consumer demand, he inquires acidly, is it possible that all those new doughnut shops may reflect a quiet understanding between landlords and franchisors that the best way to fill fallow commercial property is to sell franchises to credulous investors? Franchise book of interest to anyone who pays taxes, Ann Finlayson, November 1, 1997
Finlayson strikes a cautionary note, specifically about the hinted at misuse of the Canada Small Business Financing program, CSBFP:
Does all this matter to you? Yes, it does. In 1993, in the wake of vigorous complaints by small-business owners that Canadian banks were reluctant to finance them, Ottawa raised the ceiling on loans guaranteed by the Small Business Loans Administration to $250,000 and its guarantee rate from 85 per cent to 90 per cent, sparking a bank lending rush to franchisees and shifting the risk of franchise investments onto taxpayers' (your) shoulders.
The Risk: Only a fraction of the Liars' Loans are ever claimed by the banks, thereby grossly understating Industry Canada's default statistics (Franchised v. Non-Franchised loan performance). The franchisee thinks he signed a government-backed loan but it never gets registered as such. As their bankruptcy, loss of life savings, marital and family breakdown escalate over the life of their 12 to 18 month franchise career, the franchisee NEVER looks to Box 9 of the CSBFP loan application form (Projected Sales ) as the source of their trouble; where the lie is put into the "Liars' Loan". The proceeds of these engineered-to-fail loans is split upfront by the franchise banker with the bank, banker, franchisor and sales agent. If questioned, the bank shreds the paperwork and waits for the lawsuit.
And, seriously, how many of these Immigrants as prey losers could or would ever sue a Schedule 1 chartered bank?
Only one I know of: a father and son PhD/B.Eng. team I worked with. The Oudovikines (pronounced: ou-doe-VEE-kin), RCMP Commercial Crime Unit affidavit, Country Style, CIBC, lawsuit
The Return: Smashing quarterly earnings goals, record profits, high turnover in the small business division of each of the banks, and making franchise lending the most lucrative form of commercial lending in Canada. Private gain/public loss enabled by a criminogenic environment, moral hazard, regulatory capture…
Lorinc carefully mentions the "windfall profits" in this arrangement of churning:
What's more, some banks and franchisors have put the SBLA program [predecessor government guaranteed loan program] to questionable use during foreclosure actions against franchisees, says one former owner who has been through the process. When a bank calls a loan against a non-performing franchisee, the 90% guarantee effectively relieves the bank's receiver from trying to get the best possible value while disposing of the owner's assets. With most of the loan covered by the Canadian taxpayer, the assets – fixtures, kitchen equipment, inventory, etc. – can be sold quickly at a deep discount, possibly below market value. This allows the franchisor too step in and buy back the property at better-than-firesale prices, thus generating a windfall profit when the store is later re-sold to another franchisee.
An important work that, depressingly, is as relevant in 2012 as it was in 1995.
Disclosure: My lol pecuniary interest here and here.

Franchise lenders are swill
Some systems hardly have any franchisee debt.
This is particularly true of ones that converted employees to franchisees.
That changes once franchisors listen to their bankers explain how much they both can make (ie. interest kickbacks) if they leverage as many franchisees to the teats.
The primary control method of newer (maybe more formally educated?) franchisees is debt. Hundreds of thousands of supportable debt, if the franchisor who controls their gross margins, lets them service their debt.
It's ugly:
prime plus 5% ("love to give a better rate but it's unsecured, don't you know"),
immediately callable (demand loan = short leash),
plus personal guarantees up the wazzo ("just need the missus to okay the paperwork…"), but
secured by NOTHING but the franchisor"s "good faith" (ok as long as the present management stays put but all deals are off if…).
If you want to unlock the chains, start asking your "preferred" lender some questions (on a public blog, btw) about their lending duty under the Bank Act.
Franchise bankers: a breed apart.
A little more sensitive than you run-of-the-mill doofus franchisor: don't like being fingered for loan pushing, collusion or predatory franchise lending.

Franchising more than helps flush +$100 million CDN annually down the toilet
A good Canadian Press article called Ottawa's loan program for small business still troubled: report by Dean Beeby. The revenue paid to Industry Canada was supposed to cover the default claims paid out, but the math has never worked in Ottawa's favour.
Claims paid out have risen steadily over the decade, and now top $100 million annually, while revenues have consistently lagged, costing taxpayers a net $335 million so far.
Put another way, cost recovery is currently at only about 60 per cent rather than the 100 per cent that was planned, and is in steady decline.
"The gap between claims and fee revenues will continue to exist and most likely expand," predicts the KPMG report, dated Oct. 30 and obtained by The Canadian Press under the Access to Information Act.
The program's portfolio of loans has become ever more risky over the decade, now catering especially to newly established small firms with weak credit scores and little collateral, many in the food-and-beverage sector.
These loans are used extensively in franchising although the franchise bankers frequently don't even bother to try to register or make a claim on the phantom loans. The difference between new and used equipment nicely covers the money split between the mob (see here for details).
I've kept a close eye on the Canada Small Business Financing program and how the franchise industry misuses it (see my 2005 paper called Franchising Opportunism)
Program results from 1999 to 2008 using Industry Canada's own Annual Reports (franchised v. non-franchised loans):
Franchise Loan Claim Rate was 26.5% higher (than for Non-franchised loans).
Franchise Loan Default Rates resulted in over $22.9-million more Claims (Non-franchised rate).
The mean Franchised loan was 43.4% higher than Non-Franchised.
The mean Franchised claim was 11.9% higher than Non-Franchised.
Comparing the years 2008 to 1999:
The Claim Rate increased 858.2 times for Franchised (245.1 times for Non-franchised loans).
The Franchised Claim Rate accelerated 3.5 times more than Non-franchised loans.
I'd be happy to send anyone the spreadsheet.
The U.S. Small Business Administration's 7a. loan program seems to be sticking their citizens with a $70-83-billion public debt, too.

The Mob: A Working group of Professional Thieves
Thieves steal to live.
Professionals in thievery and business behave in a very similar manner.
Only a tiny percentage of thieves are recognized and view themselves as being professional: full time, rational and consistent planning.
The most prestigious of theft rackets is The Grift or Con games. The Grift requires cooperation among specialists.
The working group of professional thieves is known as a mob, troop, or outfit. The number of members in a mob is determined in part by the racket which is being hustled, in part by the angles which are being played, and in part by the circumstances and situations…Sometimes a large number of thieves work together in a loose organization in the more elaborate confidence games, using a common pay-off joint or big store (fake gambling club or brokerage office.) p. 27
For any group to function productively, certain rules need to be known and obeyed. This discipline is generally higher than in straight business because of the extralegal nature of some of their work.
The mob has many codes, rules, and understandings, most of which are so general that they apply to the whole profession as well as to a particular mob. p. 35
I understand (from books alone) that they are:
gains are divided equally (although, different for different roles),
all payouts must be paid from the net take (expenses [or nut] first deducted from gross take),
all loans must be repaid from the group's first fruits (rigidly enforced),
everyone shares in the profit or loss (good or bad),
the fall-dough (shared cash) is used to protect any member of the mob,
each member must deal honestly with each other (burning someone is a almost unthinkable, lying is considered more serious than in straight business),
if someone leaves the mob, he must ask to be taken back (type of social norm or professional consideration),
a member of the mob is not responsible for things outside of his control (appreciation for the role of randomness and luck),
a mob member should not cut in on another member's area of responsibility (reflects negatively on the competence of the "helped" member), and
it's "the responsibility of every member of the mob to do everything possible to fix a case for any member of the mob if the pinch [arrest, exposure] occurred in connection with mob activities." p. 38
In addition to their specialized skills, a professional thief must have a more general capability called larceny sense.
Larceny Sense: This term is applied to the thief just as the term "business sense" is applied to the business man. It is an ability to deal with unusual situations in the best possible manner and is acquired in the course of experience. Every thief with good larceny sense will try to figure out every eventuality in taking off a touch. Some thieves are considered to have no larceny sense, while others have plenty of it.
Quotations Source: The Professional Thief, Chapter 2: The Mob, The University of Chicago, 1937 [my emphasis]
Franchise marketing, for some systems, has evolved into a specialized, highly secretive applied fraud. Each trademark system has a number of 3 or 4 professionals working to sell and resell franchises that are designed to fail for the investor.
There is no boss per se within the group. Because the work is underground, there is little documentation available.
If there is a boss in the traditional sense, it would be the banker in head office who are within the small business lending division. These Franchise Bankers (one bank per franchise system) work very closely with the franchisor for their direct lending needs as well as setting up extremely lucrative service contracts for their franchisees (current accounts, merchant accounts, etc.).
In 2000, I interviewed Dan Farmer of the Royal Bank of Canada. He stated that franchise lending was "the most lucrative form of commercial lending there is".
Roles & Functions
mark (potential franchisee),
sales agent (initial contact with mark, as the outsideman he steers marks to the mob's preferred trademark; they are sometimes nominally independent, sometimes internal; also-known-as: consultants, franchise brokers),
franchisor contact (initially charming, aura of success, kept at arm's-length until the loan proceeds are advanced and removed from mark's current account), and
lender (specific bank official, specific bank branch: a high-risk, 24-hour turnaround on government guaranteed loans).
In their function as lenders, bank officers owe their borrowers a legal duty to perform lender's due diligence. They are prohibited by law from creating debt instruments that they knew or should be reasonably be expected to know would be unsustainable or result in the borrower's financial ruin. In Canada, the relevant statutes are the Bank Act and the Canada Small Business Financing Act and Regulations.
Banks and bank officers are not being held accountable because these arrangements, although highly exploitable, provide substantial profits to the franchise bar, franchisors, etc. Canada has a well-known reputation for harbouring white-collar criminals.
This, however, is very, very fertile litigation soil for outside law firms that can know what questions to ask.
That I am a 1/3 partner in only one active lawsuit, speaks not to the rarity of the fraud but to my restraint and patience for the cleanup to happen. In 2005, we had identified over 12 potential lawsuits involving just one franchise system, bank pairing.
Additional information on Predatory Franchise Lending and my recommendations to stop such abuse, can be found by in a paper I wrote to Industry Canada in 2005 called Franchising Opportunism: Deceit to secrsy confind. [Predatory Lending, IC Feb 2005]

Sincere ignorance and Conscientious stupidity


As the Mayor and Council prepare to interview candidates and select Cincinnati's next City Manager, the questions arises, what should we be looking for in a City Manager? The City Manager runs the city. A City Manager oversees an annual operating budget over $350 million dollars, the delivery of basic city services, and the development and construction of major projects throughout the city. Candidates should have significant experience in management.
Independence: The City Manager is the Chief Executive Officer of the city and that person should have both the appearance and the practice of independently running the city on a day-to-day basis. The Mayor and Council per our Charter should act as the Chair of the Board and the Board of Directors leaving the City Manager to make personnel decisions and to present projects in a clear and unbiased manner.
Accountability: A City Manager needs to be held accountable and he needs to hold each department and staff member accountable. In order to do this, the city needs to do a better job of tracking data, measuring outcomes, and using those tools to improve the delivery of city services. Creating accountability measures should be a priority for the City Manager.
Transparency: A City Manager needs to be able to both run the day-to-day operations and effectively and accurately report to the public, the Mayor, and Council. Deals should not be made behind closed doors. Details should not be withheld. The public should be able to trust their government.
Fiscal Responsibility: The budget process has typically been contentious and flawed. A priority for a new City Manger should be to create and implement a budget process that will be followed. It needs to be clear how to participate, what participation can affect, when the budget will be presented, and when Council will vote. Processes for awarding money to agencies, for increasing or decreasing departmental funding, and for prioritizing projects should be clearly defined and followed.
Regional Cooperation: There are shared service opportunities throughout this region that could save taxpayer dollars, and increase the effectiveness of city government. The next City Manager should present to Council on a regular basis shared service opportunities for an up or down vote to create greater regional cooperation and strengthen this region.
Equity: While some areas of Cincinnati have seen improvements, the success has not been shared. The City Manager should ensure that all projects are fair and impartial by creating, updating, and following agreed upon processes for the distribution of funds, contracting and prioritization of projects.
Continuous Improvement: A strong commitment to continuous improvement of city services should be achieved by implementing a new system for tracking and utilizing data. The City Manager should not be satisfied with business as usual, but constantly questioning and challenging assumptions by collecting, analyzing, and making decisions based on data. Processes in every department could be improved by defining key metrics and making administrative decisions based on work to improve those outcomes over time.


The 2018 LOTTO Polish Championship was a 10-player single round-robin which took place in the Trading Room of the Warsaw Stock Exchange from 12-20 May. The top prize is 20,000 PLN (about $5,500) with the top two qualifying for the Polish Olympiad team.
20-year-old Jan-Krzysztof Duda won his 1st Polish Championship. He was leading with half point before the last round. He drew his game against GM Mateusz Bartel. Meanwhile GM Kacper Piorun lost his game, despite this he is second with 5,5 points out of 9. Third is GM Jacek Tomczak with 5 points.


Enterprise 2.0: What lies ahead?
It has been has been a very tumultuous year in business and the software industry, filled with new theories and insights, especially in the area of social product innovation.
•	The flattened organization: This is the notion that social collaboration will enable both internal and external stakeholders to openly connect across the organization, abolishing communication silos and as Donston-Miller explains will "break down hierarchical barriers" to communication. In product development, a flattened organizations will mean more visibility into projects, increased teamwork, better decision making and overall increased productivity.
•	The voice of the customer will become bigger and more vocal: As the social web continues to evolve, customers will increasingly use it as a channel to voice their opinions and communicate their issues to organizations- a trend that cannot be ignored. To stay ahead of the competition, it will be highly imperative for organizations to have the right tools to capture, respond to and integrate customer feedback into their process, especially in product development.
•	Customer service will have a big online presence: Consider this. According to Karim Guessous, co-founder and CEO of Tradepal, "50% of customer service will be conducted via social networks…whether FAQ, help, or even one-to-one support." This means organizations will have to invest in social tools (like help desk management technologies) that will enable them to capture, manage and resolve issues being aired out over the social web. For product development, this is a great opportunity to leverage customer issues and problems into the development process, to improve product features and future releases.
It is clear that enterprise 2.0 trends mean big changes for social product development, particularly how we develop and deliver products to market. We are already seeing co-creation, and the increased involvement of all stakeholders, being integrated into the product development process, as well as increased interest, from organizations, in social technologies like social media monitoring, online customer service, and idea management tools.
One thing to note is that though these are predictions made for the next 5 years, these changes in enterprise 2.0 are happening now- and in order to get and remain ahead of the curve organizations will need to think about how these trends will impact their current and future business strategies and what they plan to do to thrive in the marketplace.
We want to know: What other social trends in enterprise 2.0 have you observed this year?

The UNESCO World Heritage listed Hyde Park Barracks is one of the most significant convict sites in the world. A crossroads for tens of thousands of people, it played a central role in the world's largest and longest-running system of convict transportation. During the 20th century, Hyde Park Barracks escaped demolition a number of times. In the early decades it was under threat by plans to develop Macquarie Street, but this period also saw the beginnings of the heritage preservation movement, with artists such as Sydney Ure Smith, Lionel Lindsay and Hardy Wilson picturing the barracks and other heritage buildings in their works and speaking openly about the need to preserve them. By the 1940s the Royal Australian Historical Society and the National Trust demanded the barracks be converted into a museum. It was not until 1975 that extensive conservation works began, and the main building was restored to its original appearance.

This week we were so pleased to send ten Beauvoir faculty members to the NPS Diversity Institute, featuring Rosetta Lee. Rosetta is both a teacher and professional outreach specialist at the Seattle Girls School. Since 2004 she has been a diversity speaker and trainer and has worked with over 200 K-12 schools, colleges, and universities….


In 1995 the incredible Robin Williams brought the dangers of the jungles to our world in the film Jumanji. Boasting some of the best in digital effects for its time the original Jumani film was a fun piece fantasy that seemed to tell all there was to tell about a dangerous, enchanted board game.
How does one evolve a special effects heavy film about an enchanted board game? Thankfully the film does a wonderful job of picking up precisely where the original film left off. The board game is found in the sand on the beach. But unlike the original film the new owner of the game has no interest in playing an old relic of a board game and it gets put on a shelf. This is where the filmmakers found a way to really enhance the "legend" of the Jumanji game. The game magically analyzes the video game console of the young boy who chose not to play it and transforms itself into a 90's era video game cartridge. What fun!
The film then flashes 20 or so years forward in time to introduce us to four teens who will inevitably find themselves lost in the game as well. My only complaint with the film is that these characters are too shallow in their development. They are weakly drawn stereotypes, the nerd, the dumb jock, the hot girl and the introverted girl. But since we are only with these teens for a small amount of time before they are sucked into the game, forgiveness can be made for their lazy characterizations as a way of making them easily digestible before they are converted into the avatars of the video game.
Once they are sucked into the game that is when the fun of the movie really starts. The game is similar to the conceit of the original, all the players must finish the game for it to truly be over. The stakes seem higher here though as each player is given the video game standard of three lives. The unknown consequence of wasting those three lives is the very real possibility that death in the game could mean death in the real world. This both allows the characters the chance to make mistakes but also be fearful of a real consequence to their actions.
Naturally there is a lot of humor in having a group of teenagers suddenly thrust into the bodies of grown ups. This is played to delightful humor in how incorrectly matched each character is to the grown up they inhabit. Spencer, the nerd of the group, becomes a muscular hero (Dwayne Johnson). Fridge, the jock, gets thrust into the weak sidekick role (Kevin Hart). Bethany, the beautiful self-centered girl, is hilariously turned into an overweight middle aged man (Jack Black). Martha, the introverted awkward girl, become a beautiful woman in the vein of "Lara Croft: The Tomb Raider" (Karen Gillan). The comedy that comes from these four actors playing teenagers trapped in their bodies is hilarious, and carefully timed throughout the film.
The plot of the movie is basically the plot of any co-operative video game. The players must learn to build on each other's strengths to achieve access to the next level of the game until they get to the final level and can save the day. This forced cooperation leads the four teens to discover new things about themselves, and each other, along the way. Ultimately making them better people and friends in the real world.
Interestingly, the original Jumanji film put the perils of the jungle into the real world, and boasted some of the best uses of digital effects for its time. The sequel pulled a reversal and put the characters into the jungle itself. By doing this, the new film seems to rely on the visual effects a little less intensely than the original. There are still some impressive set pieces, including a fun one with a helicopter and some Rhinos near the end of the second act, but Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle seems to rely more heavily on the development of the characters playing the game more than the game itself. And in that way the film is a fun success for me.
Fans of the original film will have fun catching all of the call backs and parallels to the original in this film. It is also very easy for anyone with no prior experience of Jumanji to enjoy this film on its own as well. The reviewer took his 9 year old nephew to the screening and enjoyed watching him transfixed for the duration and cheering, hollering and laughing throughout the film.

Dwyane Wade says he and LeBron James just 'wanted to make Kobe proud'

The last few days have been a constant outpouring of feelings of sorrow, angst, despair, nostalgia and much more. And as part of the grieving process for the basketball world, TNT produced a special edition of their show from inside an empty Staples Center, site of the postponed game between the Lakers and Clippers on Tuesday.
The most noteworthy moments of the show came from Shaquille O'Neal and Jerry West, who were both overcome with emotions. Shaq, of course, was Bryant's running-mate for three championship runs from 2000-02 and West is the man who was able to trade for Bryant on the day of the 1996 NBA Draft. But how Kobe affected the immediate generation after him was discussed by Miami Heat legend Dwyane Wade.
Wade, who is often compared to Bryant because they play the same position, says that he, LeBron James and others from their generation who are compared to Kobe just wanted to make him proud.
A post shared by Bleacher Report (@bleacherreport)
While Dwyane Wade eulogized Bryant on national TV alongside other NBA legends, his son Zaire honored Kobe with his famous jersey pull to the side after a dunk in his game last night for Sierra Canyon.
The Lakers next scheduled game is Friday at Staples Center against the Portland Trail Blazers.

Man who pulled woman by the jacket and knocked glasses off Cork garda jailed
Judge Olann Kelleher said, "A lot of people have difficulties with drink and drugs but they don't knock the glasses off gardaí."
The incident has now been described at Cork District Court where the accused man, Blake Sheridan, pleaded guilty to various charges arising out of this and another incident.
GARDAÍ intervened when they saw a man pulling a young woman up the road in Cork city with her jacket dragged over her head.
Judge Olann Kelleher jailed Blake Sheridan, 31, of 37 Ard Aoibhinn, Ticknock, Cobh, County Cork, for a total of five months for his offences.
Blake Sheridan admitted obstructing gardaí, engaging in threatening behaviour and being drunk and a danger on December 24, 2021.
Sergeant Pat Lyons said that at Ballynagarbragh, Knockraha, County Cork, Garda Sean Hahessy approached Mr Sheridan who refused to answer questions. Sheridan shouted at gardaí and called them "useless f***ers".
"He threatened to kick the s*** out of Garda Hahessy. He squared up to him and handcuffs had to be placed on him. He said he would beat him up and down the road and knock his f***ing head off."
The same man came to the attention of gardaí again the following month. It occurred on January 28, 2022 at Morrison's Quay, Cork.
"Garda Iain King saw him pulling a female with a jacket over her head up the road. He was drinking from an open bottle. He lunged and swung at Garda King knocking his glasses from him, chipping a lens and damaging an arm of the glasses. The arm of the glasses was bent so that they could not be used again."
Arising out of this, the defendant again pleaded guilty to obstruction, threatening behaviour and being drunk and a danger. He also admitted a criminal damage charge.
The 31-year-old had 30 previous convictions including three for engaging in threatening behaviour and one for causing criminal damage.
Defence solicitor, Joseph Cuddigan, said the defendant was not trying to hide behind being intoxicated on the occasions and he accepted that his behaviour was nothing short of disgraceful. He tendered his apology to gardaí, Mr Cuddigan said.
"On the credit side he is trying to get out of the dual addiction to alcohol and drugs. He has been working assiduously with Coolmine since August 2022. It looks like he is very much near the top of the queue for a 12-week residential treatment course.
"He knows himself the blight alcohol and drugs have caused. He had a business which he lost," Mr Cuddigan said.
Judge Olann Kelleher said, "These incidents happened in December 2021 and in January 2022. He did nothing for eight months after these savage attacks. A lot of people have difficulties with drink and drugs but they don't knock the glasses off gardaí."

Hi Everyone! My wife and I work seasonally, and spend most of the year in Alaska. Until recently, we had planned to build a tiny home on a trailer, but the costs have been piling up and it's seeming less and less feasible.
About a week ago, in searching for suitable trailers, we stumbled upon some pretty nice-looking 4-season campers, but we don't know much about them. The pros seem to be that it's pre-made, insulated, and electrical and plumbing have already been considered.
The cons are that we don't know how cold you can still be comfortable, and if anyone actually lives full time in a 4 season camper in cold conditions. Does anyone have any wisdom to impart? Or any helpful tips to consider? Thanks for the help! - Jake and Anna H.


A unique research project, led by the Genealogical Society of Ireland and the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI), has created the first genetic map of the people of Ireland. The findings have been published in a paper – The Irish DNA Atlas; Revealing Fine-Scale Population Structure and History within Ireland – in the journal Scientific Reports.
The landmark study provides the first fine-scale genetic map of the island of Ireland, revealing patterns of genetic similarity, so far in ten distinct clusters, roughly aligned with the ancient Provinces as well as with major historical events including the invasions of the Norse Vikings and the Ulster Plantations.
Population geneticists and genealogists collected DNA samples from 196 Irish people, each of whom had four generations of ancestry originating from a common geographical area of the island ie all four grandparents were born within around 30km of one another.
Analyses of the DNA, and comparison with thousands of further samples from Britain and Europe, have revealed geographic clusters within Ireland: so far seven of 'Gaelic' Irish ancestry, and three of shared British-Irish ancestry.
These findings add to the knowledge base required to improve the diagnosis of diseases where genes play a strong role, particularly for populations of Irish ancestry.
For more information, see the RCSI's press release, or go straight to the paper published in Scientific Report.

Pocan Leads Bipartisan Letter Calling on Pentagon to Withhold U.S. Support for Disastrous Assault on Yemen's Major Port
WASHINGTON, DC (June 13, 2018) – U.S. Representatives Mark Pocan (D-WI), Justin Amash (R-MI), Ro Khanna (D-CA), Thomas Massie (R-KY), Barbara Lee (D-CA), Walter Jones (R-NC), and Ted Lieu (D-CA) this week led a bipartisan letter calling on Secretary of Defense James Mattis to stop a disastrous military assault by Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates on Hodeida, Yemen's major port city. In the letter, Members called for the U.S. to reject providing logistical, military, and diplomatic support for the Saudi-led coalition's operation, as well as disclose the full scope of the U.S. involvement in the Saudi-led war.
"We urge you to use all available means to avert a catastrophic military assault on Yemen's major port city of Hodeida by the Saudi-led coalition, and to present Congress with immediate clarification regarding the full scope of U.S. military involvement in that conflict," wrote the Members. "We remind you that three years into the conflict, active U.S. participation in Saudi-led hostilities against Yemen's Houthis has never been authorized by Congress, in violation of the Constitution."
"We are concerned that in the midst of a Senate effort to exercise its constitutional authority to end unauthorized hostilities—including U.S. targeting and refueling assistance for Saudi-led airstrikes against Yemen's Houthis—the Pentagon may have concealed key information from members of Congress regarding the full extent of on-the-ground U.S. military participation in the Saudi coalition-led war," continued the Members.
"We call on you to immediately disclose the full extent of the U.S. military role in the Saudi-led war against Yemen's Houthis, including the use of special operations forces; disclose any role that the Pentagon is currently performing, has been asked to perform, or is considering performing regarding an attack on the port of Hodeida; and issue a public declaration opposing this impending assault and restating the Administration's position that Saudi Arabia and other parties to the conflict should accept an immediate ceasefire and move toward a political settlement to resolve the conflict," Members wrote.
"In light of a possibly disastrous offensive on Hodeida, we remind you that under Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution, Congress alone has the power to declare and authorize war, and the War Powers Resolution allows any individual member of Congress to force a debate and floor vote to remove U.S. forces from unauthorized hostilities," concluded the Members.
The Saudi-led war against Yemen's indigenous Houthi rebels, now over three years old, has created "the worst humanitarian crisis in the world," according to international relief agencies, leaving 17.8 million Yemenis, or 60 percent of the population, food insecure, and 8.4 million a step away from famine. The port city of Hodeida, already under a Saudi-imposed blockade, receives 80 percent of the country's food imports, and experts warned that an assault on the city could immediately threaten the lives of 250,000 people and put millions more at risk of starving to death.
Pocan and Amash have previously worked together to raise concerns to the Trump Administration in two separate letters regarding the humanitarian threat posed by a Saudi coalition attack on Hodeida, obtain the Trump Administration's legal justifications for the war, and call for the immediate end of U.S. hostilities, which include targeting and midair refueling assistance for Saudi-led airstrikes.
In September, Pocan joined Khanna, Massie, and Jones to introduce H.Con.Res 81, a privileged measure invoking the War Powers Resolution to remove U.S. Armed Forces from unauthorized Saudi-led hostilities against Yemen's Houthis. That resolution obtained 53 House cosponsors and led to a companion measure to end U.S. participation, introduced by Senators Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Mike Lee (R-UT), and Chris Murphy (D-CT), which 44 Senators voted to consider in March.


Apply now for a PhD with me on the project 'The Cognitive Ecologies of Collaborative Embodied Skills: a philosophical study'.
This project aims to develop a new theory of embodied collaboration and interaction in expert groups. It asks how individuals with diverse technical and emotional skills coordinate actions and decisions, sometimes acting as if of one mind. How do experts mesh distinct but complementary capacities, or recover together from challenges or adversity? The project combines foundational philosophical and cognitive theory with empirical and ethnographic studies of experts in the real world cognitive ecologies of sport and music.
A number of potential PhD research topics are available within this project, depending on the experience, skills, and interests of the best applicants. The PhD student will work on an independent project within the overall study. It is likely that one project will address foundational issues in the philosophy and cognitive theory of skilled action, while one will work in depth with expert groups in sport or music.
Specifically, we seek to characterise the roles of individuals in collaborative embodied skill, and to determine what disparate group members bring to and do in expert team performance, complementing each other in joint action; to identify cues to collaborative embodied skill which are distributed across entire cognitive ecologies; and to illustrate and explain how shared memories and shared emotions influence control of skilled group action. We aim thereby to make concrete progress in philosophical debates on embodied, enactive, distributed, and group minds; and implement a focus on historical and cultural dimensions of skill, working closely with practitioners in sport and music.
Applicants must meet the entry requirements for the PhD program.

Funding for PhD students to present at conferences and/or to visit research groups overseas during their candidature is available.

Home NYC Mayor Eric Adams calls migrant surge at border a 'national crisis' during El Paso visit

NYC Mayor Eric Adams calls migrant surge at border a 'national crisis' during El Paso visit
New York City Mayor Eric Adams headed to El Paso this weekend to visit the U.S.-Mexico border as his city has become overwhelmed with thousands of migrants that have been bused north in recent months, straining public resources to their limits.
After arriving in El Paso Saturday evening, Mayor Adams called the surge of migrants a "national crisis" that demands a national solution.
Adams said that he and El Paso Mayor Oscar Leeser were "on the front lines, and we need federal support."
The visit came after the city submitted an emergency mutual aid request to New York State for help to shelter arriving asylum seekers.
GEORGE SOROS-BACKED OPEN BORDER GROUP SUING DESANTIS OVER MIGRANT FLIGHTS VIOLATES FEDERAL TAX LAWS: REPORT
"We are now seeing more people arrive than we have ever seen – averaging over 400 people each day this last week, with 835 asylum seekers arriving on one single day alone, the largest single-day arrival we've seen to date," Adams said in a statement. "All this is pushing New York City to the brink."
The city reportedly received more than 3,100 asylum seekers in the past week, with 835 arriving last Thursday alone.
Since the spring of 2022, Adams noted that the city had taken in around 40,000 asylum seekers, opening 74 emergency shelters and four humanitarian relief centers.
TEXAS MEN ARRESTED NEAR MEXICO BORDER AFTER TROOPER FINDS ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS IN TRUNK OF CAR
Mayor Adams told Caribbean Power Jam Radio on Friday he expected the influx of migrants to cost the city as much as $2 billion.
Adams' press secretary said Friday the mayor's trip to El Paso will include "multiple stops at and near the U.S. southern border" as the city "continues to face an unprecedented influx" of asylum-seekers.
Levy said Adams visited the Office of New Americans-El Pasto County, Texas "to learn about what they are hearing from arriving seekers."
"The reality of the situation is these migrants are being promised things before they cross the border that are just not available," Levy said.
BORDER CRISIS: 3 GIRLS ABANDONED NEAR RIO GRANDE, MEXICAN OFFICIALS MAKE RESCUE
Levy said the mayor arrived in El Paso Saturday night. A post shows Adams and Leeser taking an "impromptu visit to an area where asylum seekers have been known to cross the border, as well as an area where many asylum seekers are sleeping."
Levy also shared a video of Mayors Adam and Leeser stopping by El Paso's Healing Garden and the memorial at Walmart to pay respects to the nearly two dozen migrants murdered in 2019 "in a racist, anti-immigrant shooting."
Another video from Levy shows Adams speaking with asylum seekers outside Sacred Heart Church. Levy said the migrants "overwhelmingly" raised their hands to tell the mayor they want to work.
A few reportedly told The New York Post they wanted the mayor to "take me with you" back to New York when asked what their message to Adams would be.
The mayor's visit has drawn comparisons to President Biden's brief visit to El Paso to see the U.S.-Mexico border. In the span of about four hours, the president walked a stretch of the border and inspected a busy port of entry where border officers demonstrated how they search vehicles for drugs, money, and other contraband. Still, many critics chided the president for not visiting areas most impacted by illegal border crossings.

Jinius has been one of my members that since returning has been working hard to work his way up the ranks. Since his time, he has participated in five competitions, completed an ACC battle, has written over 17,368 words of fiction, passed 3 courses and gained 2 degrees, earned himself a ruby, Amethyst, 3 Sapphire, and two Emerald stars. He also has 39 clusters of Ice and two clusters of Graphite.
On top of that, he has also taken initiative and joined with the Shadow Academy leadership and is now a Shadow Academy professor.
I am impressed with his determination and I see no reason to not reward him the title of Knight as he has completed everything necessary for the rank.
So without further ado, I present to all of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood and Naga Sadow a new Knight among the ranks, Jinius Griffith!
Jinius has certainly been an active member since his return. He is a fierce warrior in the ACC and one of the few people that I look forward to crossing blades with. When I am troubled with the weight of leadership, I can always find solace in the conversations that I have with Jinius. I believe that Jinius possesses the strength of arms and strength of character to serve as a Knight Of Clan Naga Sadow. May the Force guide you and may your enemies fall upon your mighty blade.
Well, I do have to preface what I am about to say with by admitting I have known Jinius for a number of years. So when he returned to the Brotherhood, I had some high expectations, especially given what he done in the past. He is a capable writer, and has proven to be up to my expectations and beyond.
He has fairly consistently reached out to myself and others looking on ways he can give back, and I saw his drive bring him into service along with Wally and company to clean up and keep professorship over a part of the Writing Department. I am glad to see his drive bringing him here, and look forward to what else he will bring to the table. He and I have already been discussing some ways he can help enrich the experience of his fellow Clan mates. I have run into plenty of folks who ask how they can help, but he has been one of most consistent to follow up.
This is just one step down a much bigger path. I look forward with great anticipation about what else Jinius Griffin will bring to help better the Brotherhood as a whole. The sky is the limit. Congratulations as you arise as Knight Jinius Griffin!
Jinius has blazed through his time here at HSD! He has tore through the SA garnering multiple, multiple degrees. I personally have never seen a newcomer blow through the SA like that to earn so many degrees in their first months of training. Not only that he has entered multiple competitions and placed in all of them. He is always pleasant to interact with, excited to jump into comps and help the Clan and his House.
I am COMPLETELY on board with promoting Jinius to the rank of Knight. A rank fitting of him and more so, a rank well deserved!!!
I've known Jinius for ages, even before my Brotherhood time. When I first recruited Jinius, he was a little cagey, unsure of what to expect and not entirely sold on the description of the systems the DJB offers. When he finally did start, he bombarded me with questions and never really stopped. He figured out 99% of his promotion requirements by himself, then proceeded to go above and beyond.
More recently, I asked him what he thought of the systems behind the Brotherhood and he replied that he was fascinated, and loved systems like ACC. In fact, I think I've had to slow him down for his own good once or twice.
That said, I think Jinius will make a fine addition to the Brotherhood at large, and I hope I get to write many many more of these recommendations in the future. Congratulations Jinius, well-earned!


We continue to motor our way along. Have much sail up capturing the light southerly winds to assist with making as much speed as possible.
Oops. No, we don't. Just as I began this log, the little bit of wind that was from the south died off completely. So, the crew are taking in the three jibs, the square-topsail and the foresail. The sea is in a virtual mill pond state. No ruffles at all.
I thought I would supplement the list of American fishing vessel names we have been reading on the ship's AIS.
Destiny, Miss Trish II, Teresa Marie IV, Travis & Natalie, Dyrsten, Providian, Sunlight, Starlight, Nobska, Southern Crusader, Sao Marcos II, Jacqueline Robin, Laura Beth and Gladys Elaine.
Now that we have reached the boundary between USA & Canada, any fishing vessel names we see as we proceed through Canadian waters will be, of course, Canadian fishing vessels.
Hmm…I wonder if the nature of their naming will be any different than what we have seen thus far.

What did Andrew Gillum do? Former Florida politician indicted on wire fraud charges

Florida politician Andrew Gillum was indicted for 21 felony charges (image via Getty)
Andrew Gillum, a 42-year-old former Florida politician, was indicted on June 22, 2022, on 21 counts related to felony, including conspiracy and wire fraud.
Gillum had a decorated career as a politician, serving as the 126th Mayor of Tallahassee while also running as a Democrat representative for the Government of Florida in 2018.
Yesterday, the U.S. Attorney's office in the Northern District of Florida indicted Andrew Gillum on a litany of corruption-related charges. According to Rolling Stone, Gillum had allegedly misdirected funds for his election campaign to one of his advisors, Sharon Lettman-Hicks, who then offered the money back to him.
Nick Adams
@NickAdamsinUSA
Thank God that Ron DeSantis beat Andrew Gillum in 2018.
The Associated Press reported that Sharon Lettman-Hicks, the 53-year-old owner of a communications company, is a co-defendant in the wire fraud charges.
Andrew Gillum and Sharon Lettman-Hicks made their first appearance in Federal Court on Wednesday. August 16 is set to be their trial date.
Charges and allegations against Andrew Gillum
According to prosecutors, Andrew Gillum and Sharon Lettman-Hicks, who was identified by the New York Times as his mentor, allegedly conspired to misdirect election donation funds through third-party entities.
Ryan Saavedra
@RealSaavedra
BREAKING: A federal grand jury has returned a 21-count indictment against Democrat Andrew Gillum for Conspiracy, Wire Fraud, And Making False Statements related to his campaign that he lost to Ron DeSantis
The complaint sheet read:
"(Gillum and Lettman-Hicks) conspired to commit wire fraud, by unlawfully soliciting and obtaining funds from various entities and individuals through false and fraudulent promises and representations that the funds would be used for a legitimate purpose."
According to various news outlets, Gillum was also charged with lying to FBI agents about having received bribes from two undercover agents posing as developers who needed political support for their projects.
Brandon Bradford
@BrandonLBradfor
As the Andrew Gillum story fleshes out, I want you to notice the reactions of disappointment and not rabid, fervent denial paired with conspiracy theories.
Andrew Gillum was once considered a rising star within the Florida Democratic party. Despite losing the 2018 election for governor, he found success as a CNN analyst.
However, the 21 charges are not the first time Gillum has encountered controversy. He has been accused of misconduct, grand theft, and corruption in the past. As per the Orlando Sentinel, he was also accused of accepting gifts in exchange for favors.
Andrew Gillum vehemently denies the charges, claiming that he has been indicted for political reasons.

@PamKeithFL
Andrew Gillum is indicted for wire fraud…
but Matt Gaetz isn't indicted for sex trafficking, fraud, and many other crimes.
That's how we know we live in a RACIST country.
Andrew Gillum is indicted for wire fraud…but Matt Gaetz isn't indicted for sex trafficking, fraud, and many other crimes. That's how we know we live in a RACIST country.
In a statement released through his lawyers, he said:
"Make no mistake that this case is not legal, it is political. Throughout my career I have always stood up for the people of Florida and have spoken truth to power."
Expressing how he feels lthere's a conspiracy at play against him, he added:
"There's been a target on my back ever since I was the mayor of Tallahassee. They found nothing then, and I have full confidence that my legal team will prove my innocence now."
I want to go on record to state the indictment against Andrew Gillum for campaign related wire fraud is PROOF that our justice system is racist and broken.
Where are the indictments for DFG campaign and wire fraud, inauguration funding fraud, and all the fraud from the wall

With a series of criminal charges, it is unlikely that Gillum will be able to revive his political career. If convicted of wire fraud, he could face up to 20 years in prison.
