The Ninth Circle: My Review
Author: C. A. Harland
Personal Context: NetGalley provided me with an e-ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review
Initial Thoughts: Sick-looking cover, and a vague title were enough to draw me in to read the synopsis. The synopsis (read below) gives the impression of Dante's Inferno meets Clare's Shadowhunters series meets Supernatural. The one thing that drew me in was the idea that there were three protagonists, all sisters, and I could tell that they were some bad-ass ladies. I think the thing that really pushed me over the edge to request this book was that because the protagonists were all related, romance wasn't going to be the main driving force of the story. This in particular is refreshing because so many YA fantasy books feature romance as a major plot device. Not to say that I dislike romantic books, because I do, but this felt like a nice break from the norm.
Synopsis from Goodreads:
Tala Morgenstern lives for the hunt, embracing her heritage as a demon hunter. When her younger sister, Hartley, disappears while on the trail of her long-lost father, Tala must seek the help of her other sister Aiva, who has turned her back on the underworld of magic and hunting. Suspecting demonic involvement, Tala and Aiva race to find Hartley before she can be claimed by hell.
Their search takes them deeper into the bowels of Dublin's criminal underground, where the gangs are led by demons, and the currency is souls. With each Circle of hell bringing new dangers, and new revelations about their own place in the demon hunting world, Tala and Aiva have to rely on each other if they are to stand a chance of fighting their way to the Ninth Circle, and the demon lord who is waiting for them.
My Review of…
…The Plot and Pace:
I find that the plot of a story, ironically, isn't what I like best, it's the characters that really get me through a book. Luckily for me, The Ninth Circle had both excellent characters and an engaging plot. From the very start of the story, the action was present. The first few pages established the problem (missing sister) and an end-game (find her and bring her home). There were no glaring plot-holes that broke immersion, and I had very little trouble with maintaining focus. The plot twist felt a little obvious to me, and I had pegged the ending (sort of) before I reached the half-way point, but it was no less satisfying.
…The Characters and Relationships:
Tala and Aiva were my favorite part of this story, and in particular, how they interacted with each other. Their relationship was truly dynamic, archetypal rivalry and repressed feelings were obvious, and were only made more visceral by the stress brought on by the events of the story. The hallmark of this story is the ride-or-die mentality between Tala and Aiva no matter how at-odds they may be. Aiva, in spite of the suffering that the Nighthunter lifestyle brought her, she returned to that life when Tala and Hartley needed her, with almost no hesitation. And Tala, who has dedicated her entire life to hunting demons, faces a life-altering crisis that threatens everything she knows to be true, comes out the other side stronger and more steadfast than before. Even Hartley, who was absent for the majority of the story is painted in a clear light, her characterization concretely defined. Harland did beautifully in crafting complex, relatable characters, and wrapping them in a story where they shine in a light all their own, instead of being squeezed into a box of stereotypes.
…The Writing Style and Mechanics:
The e-ARC I was provided contained a few errors that may have been the result of data lost during transition from pdf to ePUB. Aside from that, Harland's writing was rich with imagery, grit, and strength of character, Harland effortlessly makes her characters shine.
…The Message(s) and Theme(s):
The Dangers of Corruption: In a world where the criminal underworld is run by demons, and each circle of hell has jurisdiction over a different sector of crime, humans lose not only their money when they gamble, buy drugs, or sell their bodies; they lose their soul too.
The Bond Between Family: Tala and Aiva are testaments to the strength of the bond between family. When you share so much of your life with another person (or people), as you do with your family, it's not surprising to see such a strong connection between siblings.
Courage in the Face of Danger: When faced with demons, both literal and metaphorical, it is easy to want to give up and hide–or even run–away. And being afraid is not weakness, being able to admit fear in the face of adversity is the very definition of courage.
This story is one about family, about strength, and about compassion. Harland makes it clear that strength is not just physical, but emotional as well. With a plot that has both purpose and clarity, characters that are real and complex, and themes that are ubiquitous and important, The Ninth Circle is a story of family, of hardship, of tragedy, and of hope that will make you laugh, cry, and sigh with a mixture of disappointment and exasperation. I enjoyed watching the Morgenstern girls face both the demons of hell and their own internal demons and come out the other side stronger and more resolute than ever.
"As Tala stared at the name, she tried to figure out how she felt. It was something she'd never had to do before. She always knew what she was feeling. She didn't have questions about herself. But now, she was unsure. There was sadness, obviously, and pain, and regret, and several other things that were so tangled up she couldn't identify them. She wondered if Ava was experiencing the same thing, and if she would explain it. Aiva was better at things like feelings. But as she looked at her sister, Tala couldn't bring herself to ask."

Many of us are aware of the manual Managing Successful Projects with PRINCE2 – often referred to as the "PRINCE2 book" or the purple book. In a succinct 327 pages, it explains the PRINCE2 (Projects IN Controlled Environments) structured project management method for project managers and team members.
Few of us are aware that there is a second manual aptly named Directing Successful Projects with PRINCE2 (the blue book) which in a mere 166 pages (including glossary and index) looks at the world renowned project management method, specifically from the viewpoint of helping senior managers (think sponsors and steering committees – or in PRINCE2-speak executives and project board) direct project work. Novel thought, hey?
What is expected of me as Sponsor/Executive?
More importantly, what should I expect of my Project Manager (PM)?
How do I really know that my PM is using PRINCE2 appropriately for the project and our organisation?
I need to delegate, but how do I keep control?
What decisions should I be making?
What information will there be for me to make those decisions?
How do we tailor and adapt PRINCE2 depending on the size and type of projects we are doing?
What really does an effective PRINCE2 Project Board (steering committee) look like?
All these questions and more are covered off neatly in this Directing Successful Projects with PRINCE2 manual without getting bogged down into the day-to-day nitty-gritty of the project manager's role (which is of course covered off in the "standard" PRINCE2 manual).
And wait for it – one of the final chapters even covers off on that topical issue of Reviewing Benefits – a nice little segway for APMG's latest offering Managing Benefits™.

Q: How to configure Azure AAD in API Management and call API Management endpoints from web/console app in .NET I have gone through few articles like below
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/api-management/api-management-howto-protect-backend-with-aad
but It didnt worked.
I'm getting error as AADSTS50011: The reply URL specified in the request does not match the reply URLs configured for the application: '24gktm5-5khpnj3h9nphkmm=h-hh2h58h9'.
I have followed everything as mentioned but not getting where I did wrong.
Also can someone share code to call APIM endpoints from console app.

A: The redirect URIs for your AD app (Application ID : 24gktm5-5khpnj3h9nphkmm=h-hh2h58h9) needs to include the URI from the OAuth configuration under APIM.
From the OAuth settings of APIM, under where you enter the client secret you should see "This is what the redirect_uri for authorization code grant type looks like", copy this URL into the redirect URIs for your AD app registration.


To the ACA's credit, it expanded healthcare access to Americans who had no insurance. It also eliminated caps on coverage, stopped exclusions related to pre-existing conditions, and mandated certain types of coverage.
The downside? These benefits come at a cost to American families that result in higher insurance premiums and deductibles. For the self-employed or citizens whose employers don't contribute meaningfully to the health insurance cost burden, the financial pain is real and relief is needed.
Health sharing plans, also known as health sharing ministries, are becoming a popular alternative. Most Americans struggling with the high cost of health insurance are unfamiliar with their options, and insurance companies probably prefer to keep it that way.
What Are Health Sharing Plans/Ministries?
Though similar, health sharing plans are not the same as insurance. Essentially, they are a group of like-minded individuals that come together and help each other pay their medical expenses.
Individuals or families pay a monthly member amount similar to a health insurance premium. Depending on the program selected, participants can enjoy many of the same benefits – perks like discounts on healthcare, limits on out-of-pocket expenses, and predictable monthly cost sharing contributions amounts. The biggest of all benefits is how health-sharing plans are priced.
It depends, of course, on the type of plan chosen, but monthly payments for these plans can be significantly cheaper than insurance purchased through the ACA – in some cases HALF THE COST of traditional insurance! Member Shared Responsibility Amounts (their version of a deductible) are generally a lot lower as well.
It depends, of course, on the type of plan chosen, but monthly payments for these plans can be significantly cheaper than insurance purchased through the ACA – in some cases HALF THE COST of traditional insurance! Deductibles are generally a lot lower as well.
May require better health to qualify.
Health sharing plans are not overly complicated, but having someone help you better understand your options is the way to go. Consult with a licensed agent with expertise to determine if health sharing plans are a good choice for you.
Onviant – Health Benefits Experts specialize in these alternatives and have licensed agents who help guide you through the decision-making process. They are friendly and eager to help you better understand your options.

The Cheap Trains Act 1883 was an Act of Parliament of the United Kingdom that marked the beginning of workers' train (and later, bus) services. It removed the passenger duty on any train charging less than a penny (1d) a mile and obliged the railway companies to operate a larger number of cheap trains.

Origin
The Railway Regulation Act 1844 had established the provision of third-class coaches on what became known as "parliamentary trains". This included the right of passengers in this class to take up to  of luggage with them, so facilitating travel in search of work. In return, the railways were exempted from paying duty on these passengers.

The duty was collected by the Board of Trade and gradually, as services improved, the board allowed more and more exemptions, even on trains which did not stop at all stations, as required by the Act. However, as the duty collected rose to around £500,000 in the 1860s, the Inland Revenue took an interest.  A test case in 1874 against the North London Railway confirmed that trains must stop at all stations for the duty to be remitted.

This duty had always been irksome to the railway operators, who felt that it hindered their development. The railway operators formed the Passenger Duty Repeal Association in 1874, followed in 1877 by another group, the Travelling Tax Abolition Committee. Between them they lobbied for the complete abolition of the duty. As is usual in these cases, the government would not agree without some quid pro quo.

The Act
This period was one of extreme overcrowding in the major cities.  It was a major political issue and one solution sought by the authorities was to encourage working people to move to new housing outside the cities.  However, this implied the availability of cheap transport, for even a penny a mile was beyond most people's reach.

The Act applied to all trains charging less than a penny a mile, even those that did not stop at all stations.  The Board of Trade could decide whether a company's services were adequate and reasonably priced.  If it felt otherwise, it could remove the company's exemption on all its services.

Its effect
Some railways in London were already operating workmen's trains, although they were often overcrowded and inconveniently timed. Although the Act was opposed by some railway officers, notably Sir Edward Watkin of the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway, the number of cheap suburban services increased greatly.  During the 20th century, the appearance of competing road services meant that the railways were forced to reduce their fares.  So few services eventually attracted duty, that it was abolished in the Finance Act 1929.

Slightly edited version of article originally published under the title, "How Much Does a Bullet Cost to Turkish Army?"
Turkey's Respect to Mehmetçik Memorial depicts an Ottoman soldier carrying a wounded Australian adversary to safety during the fighting at Gallipoli in World War I.
"If a state is mighty but not compassionate, that state will become a tyrant [state]," Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu remarked on May 20.
The prime minister was absolutely right. As we go through days when bullets fly in the air and kill our young ones daily, I recalled an unknown bullet story that hopefully will reach the ears of the prime minister when he speaks of our "compassionate" state.
Barış Gözen was born in 1988. He was conscripted to serve in the Turkish army guarding northern Cyprus in Kyrenia. On Feb. 18, 2009, his unit returned to its barracks. It was just another ordinary lazy day to pass time. As the unit entered the barracks, its commander neglected to order one simple essential safety rule: unload the bullets in your rifles. Barış was sitting on a corner chatting with a friend and holding onto his rifle when it fired. The bullet pierced through his right shoulder and exited his neck, irrecoverably damaging his spinal cord.
At 21, Gözen was not able to walk or use his arms and hands, not even able to sign an official document necessary for the legal proceedings. He could not, and still cannot, move any part of his body below the neck. Medical reports said that Barış was "100 percent disabled" and in need of "lifetime medical support." Barış is doomed to his sickbed forever, totally paralyzed. Too tragic for a 21-year-old and those who love him.
At this point our "compassionate" state comes into the picture. The military prosecution prepared an indictment into the incident, signed by a judge/major who I shall name with his initials, "I.K.". Did he charge Barış's commanders for negligence of duty? No.
The military prosecution accused Barış of "making himself unfit to do his military service."
The prosecution said that Barış's unintentional firing of his rifle (and making himself totally paralyzed for the rest of his life) could earn him a prison sentence for "making himself unfit to do his military service." But the merciful prosecution said it found no evidence for an intentional self-shooting. Thank you, dear, compassionate prosecution! Barış will be grateful to you forever for staying in his "free" bed instead of a prison bed.
But the compassionate prosecution asked for a sentence for Barış for "disobeying orders." The judge/major really wanted Barış to be in a prison bed instead of a home bed. But now fasten your seatbelts and read what the prosecution also asked for: That the state treasury's loss of 1.85 Turkish Liras (66 cents) for the bullet Barış unintentionally fired and shot himself had to be collected from him. The compassionate state!
Miraculously, the military court acquitted Barış on charges of "making himself unfit for military service and disobeying orders" but it also referred the case to his military unit for the collection of the 1.85 lira loss – the cost of one bullet.
Perhaps we all should send 1.85 lira each to the mighty Turkish military and the compassionate Turkish state. The invoice should read: "This payment was made to compensate for the single bullet that paralyzed Private Barış Gözen." But your columnist bets that no military or civilian official would feel embarrassed. On the contrary, they might even feel happy to have generated surprise funding to buy more bullets.
In the past six years Barış has been doomed to his bed, while his legal struggle to win compensation for the negligence that caused his tragedy continues on. An expert report found that he should be paid by the state a mere 129,000 liras (about $46,500) for the proven negligence that doomed him to his sick bed forever. That is in contrast with an earlier expert report that called for compensation of 1.026 million liras ($369,000).
Barış will never recover from his bed. But his legal adventures against a "compassionate" state will possibly continue on. So far, so good. Barış should learn to be grateful. He could have been having his legal adventures against a compassionate state from his prison hospital bed, instead of the bed in which he is doomed to die.

Relationships are essential for our well being. Throughout our lifetime, we meet new people and live with different people like spouse, parents, relatives, etc. Our relationship with them depends on a lot of factors. While there is love and respect but, at times strain and misunderstanding crop up in relations leading to arguments, tussles, etc. with them. These bitter moments tend to take away our mental peace and focus.
Apart from mutual conduct and behavior, the planetary position in our horoscope is also responsible for such situations. Rahu, Ketu, and Mangal are the most malicious planets and can cause a lot of troubles if they are placed in unfavorable positions.
Rahu Kaal is responsible for the stubbornness of a person, and also it creates a lot of tussles and arguments in marital life. There are chances of a person getting into an illicit relationship and an extramarital affair. Children also do not get the proper love because of these planets. These all conditions create frustration, negative environment in life and hamper one's well-being.
The best remedy is to avoid getting into any arguments, smile often and maintain a cool head. If you smile, then it may reduce the chances of fights or any arguments.
Another remedy is to immerse little quantity of Misri & 5 Almonds in the water on Sunday. Do not waste salt & water because it affects your sun and moon sign.
You should never utter a lie and never rush through any work. Help people only when they need it.
Donate Coal on Saturday, but it should be made up of wood. Also, you should wear a small gold or copper ball in your neck on Thursday.
You should wear a Rudraksha on your wrist or shoulder. Sit in front of your idol and offer prayers. Also, some grass, leaf or green vegetables should be offered in running water on Wednesday.
If you are in the work of wood cutting, then donate some items made of wood on Thursday or Sunday instead of working on these days.
Donate rice on the Ekadashi day to the poor and needy. Put green vegetables in a well on Wednesday or a Sunday.
You can strengthen your relations with your relatives and loved ones by making donations at a place where people are involved in storing water.
Avoid being stubborn and putting doubt on others. Be calm and composed and refrain from wearing dark color clothes. Instead, wear clothes of white color or any other light color and do regular Pranayama.
Wear Rudraksha and keep a small square made of silver always with you (You can wear it in a silver chain or a white thread).
The environment at your house should always be vibrant, lively and full of lights. Avoid keeping your home in dark or dim light.
Worship regularly in front of your idol and put a tilak mix of Turmeric & sandal.
To combat anger which is the number one reason for strained relationships, you should worship Shri Yantra and eat Harad after your meals. Drink radish juice regularly and smell camphor whenever you lose your temper.
Feed a cow with the first grass. Donate Gangajal, jaggery, Saunf, Bundi or Mishri in a temple along with the Coconut water.
Keep Sunderkand at regular intervals at your house and refrain from using products made up of leather.
You should also plant trees (Either Banyan or a peepal) and chant Gajendra Moksha mantra. You can even wear a thread in your hand which should be having the color of turmeric.
Lord Ganesh is termed as Vighnaharta (One who weeds out troubles) as per Indian mythology. It's a popular culture In India to establish Idol of Lord Ganesha and offer prayers before proceeding with the various rituals. It is advised that this prayer is performed on Wednesday.
There is one more Mantra called as "Shiv Shiv Rate, Sankat Kate," it should be chanted in a Shiva temple to resolve all your conflicts and disputes. Recite Maha Mrityunjaya Jaap as well to better your relations with others.

Compliance es una película de suspenso estadounidense de 2012, escrita y dirigida por Craig Zobel, basada en una estafa de llamada telefónica de búsqueda al desnudo que tuvo lugar en Mount Washington, Kentucky, en la que una persona que llamó, haciéndose pasar por un oficial de policía, convenció al gerente de un restaurante para llevar a cabo actividades ilegales y procedimientos intrusivos hacia un empleado. Está protagonizada por Ann Dowd, Dreama Walker, Pat Healy y Bill Camp.

Tuvo su estreno mundial en el Festival de Cine de Sundance el 21 de enero de 2012. Fue estrenada el 17 de agosto de 2012 por Magnolia Pictures. La actuación de Dowd como Sandra, la gerente, ganó el Premio de la National Board of Review a la Mejor Actriz de Reparto.

Argumento
Sandra (Ann Dowd), gerente del restaurante de comida rápida ChickWich, recibe una llamada de alguien que se identifica como el oficial Daniels. Este afirma estar en contacto con el Gerente Regional sobre un cliente al que supuestamente un empleado le robó dinero ese día. Daniels afirma que está registrando la residencia del sospechoso, pero permanecerá al teléfono mientras Sandra detiene al empleado hasta que llegue la policía. Sandra identifica a Becky (Dreama Walker) como la sospechosa según la descripción, y Daniels confirma el nombre.

Sandra lleva a Becky a una oficina del restaurante con otra empleada, Marti (Ashlie Atkinson). Ella niega el robo. A instancias de Daniels, Sandra busca en los bolsillos y el bolso de Becky y no encuentra nada. Diciéndole que la alternativa es que Becky vaya a la cárcel, Daniels le ordena que cachee desnuda a Becky. Daniels le dice a Sandra que él y otros oficiales están registrando la casa de Becky bajo la sospecha de que su hermano está involucrado en drogas y que Becky puede estar involucrada. Le pide a Sandra que ponga la ropa de Becky en una bolsa y la lleve a su auto para que la policía la inspeccione.

Sandra insiste en que reanude la gestión del restaurante ya que está ocupada. Después de que Daniels estipula que un empleado varón vigile a Becky por "razones de seguridad", se trae a otro empleado, Kevin (Philip Ettinger), pero cuestiona las instrucciones de Daniels y se va. El prometido de Sandra, Van (Bill Camp), se hace cargo; bajo la presión de Daniels por las cervezas que bebió antes de conducir al restaurante, Becky realiza saltos desnudos para "sacudir" cualquier contrabando oculto en su cuerpo. Después de las protestas de Becky, Daniels hace que Van la azote. Eventualmente, Becky es obligada a practicarle sexo oral a Van. Van se va sintiéndose culpable y es reemplazado por el custodio, Harold (Stephen Payne), quien está indignado por las instrucciones de Daniels. Harold le cuenta a Sandra sobre las órdenes de Daniels; ella llama al Gerente Regional, quien le dice que no tiene idea de ninguna investigación.

La policía descubre que un incidente similar ocurrió en otro lugar. Daniels es identificado por grabaciones de circuito cerrado y arrestado; él es un hombre de familia que trabaja como vendedor por teléfono. Becky se encuentra con un abogado para discutir opciones para demandar a Sandra. Sandra, ahora desempleada y que ya no ve a Van, le dice a un periodista que es una víctima inocente.

One of the best things about Ibiza is that you're never far from the beach. My family and I have spent countless carefree summer days at Blue Marlin Beach Club, the It destination favoured by a famous clientele like Prince William and Leonardo Di Caprio. Although at night, Blue Marlin morphs into a night-club, during the day the beach club is quite kids friendly. Children can play on the beach although it's a bit rocky, swim in the sparkling shallow waters of the bay, go canoeing or jet skiing and have lunch -Sora absolutely loves the sushi there!
El Chiringuito at Playa Es Cavallet is another beach club that welcomes children. Not only the beach is breathtakingly beautiful and the foods served in the restaurant mouthwatering, especially their fresh oyster – it is one of the best I've ever had. El Chiringuito also features a kids club! Supervised by the friendly staff, children can let their creativity run loose: activities include drawing, face painting, making beads bracelets, and, of course, playing on the beach. On top of it, El Chiringuito is well-ventilated, protected from the sun even in the most sizzling day! I can't think of a better place where to spend a day of fun and sand with your little kids!
Located on the inland, rural part of the island, luxury boutique hotel Can Curreu is the ideal haven for a relaxing holiday with children. The hotel features its own private terrace where you can soak up the sun, an outdoor pool where you can splash in the water and an amazing spa where the parents can relax and enjoy some "me time," knowing the children are well looked after. But what makes this hotel truly remarkable is the stables: for a day, you can rent one of the horses that call Can Curreu their home and explore this beautiful island gently rolling back and forth on their backs. It's the perfect way to see the real Ibiza away from the chaos and tourists.
Decked all in white from its interiors to the day beds, Cotton Beach Club is the epitome of summer chic. The club overlooks Cala Tarida, one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. The view from this beach club is amazing and completely takes your breathe away. Cotton Club is also one of the most friendly beach clubs in Ibiza: it's completely free of seaweed and rocks, allowing young children to roam and play safely. On top of it, they sometimes have magicians for little children and fashion shows for the older ones, which all my kids love. Entertainment for grown ups and kids!
Did you know that Formentera is only a stone's throw away from Ibiza? Take a boat to take you to one of the beautiful swimming coves in the Mediterranean and drop you right on the island – the whole trip doesn't take more than 30 minutes! Formentera has some of the most stunning beaches I've ever seen. Once you've landed, head to Chezz Gerdi for lunch – the restaurant combines the best of Italian and Spanish cuisine. Sitting comfortably in the neutral-toned terrace overlooking the Formentera coastline, guests can choose between a wide range of fish, seafood and meat as well as pasta and pizza straight from the oven. It's the perfect way to start your exploration of this island!
There is no doubt that Ibiza has plenty of beautiful beaches where you can soak up the sun and build castles in the sand. However, my absolute favourite must be Las Salinas, a long stretch of golden sand surrounded by sand dunes and pine forests. The water here is particularly shallow and salty, which makes it incredibly easy even for young swimmers to stay afloat while splashing in the water. From here, you can spot the old pirate watchtower, too!

Zepnick says he's moved past allegations; challenger Cabrera disagrees
Home » Interviews » Zepnick says he's moved past allegations; challenger Cabrera disagrees
Rep. Josh Zepnick says he's put behind him allegations that he kissed two women without their consent at Dem functions. He says his constituents have, too.
Primary challenger Marisabel Cabrera begs to differ and says voters in Milwaukee's 9th AD are still taken aback by the reports. And it's one reason why she decided to seek a rematch with Zepnick after losing to him by 149 votes in the 2016 Dem primary.
"It's not just that Josh has failed to be a voice of the people, but I feel he's failed to live up to our progressive values," said Cabrera, an immigration attorney.
But Zepnick stressed in an interview with WisPolitics.com that he's stopped drinking and made a series of positive changes. He also questioned the reporting in the original stories that detailed the allegations; he said his accusers changed details from one story to the next and the coverage of his conduct was one-sided.
"I don't think that what happened over essentially a period of five seconds in my life should define my entire career, let alone cause me to not be able to serve," Zepnick said.
Cabrera's 2016 challenge of Zepnick was her first run for public office. And the 42-year-old quickly jumped into the race again in December after the reports first surfaced and some Dems called for Zepnick to resign.
When it comes to policy, neither would support building a new prison or allowing citizens to carry concealed weapons without a permit.
Zepnick would like to see the additional state revenue from the sales tax on certain online sales go toward boosting the Earned Income Tax Credit. He said the sales tax disproportionately hits the poor, so they should benefit from the additional revenue. Likewise, he'd be open to increasing the sales tax overall by 2 cents so long as the money boosted the EITC, transportation and shared revenue.
Zepnick said part of his platform for seeking a ninth term in the Assembly is making sure Milwaukee gets its "fair share" of state revenue considering how much it sends to Madison.
Cabrera, meanwhile, said she'd want to see the additional sales tax revenue used for public education, affordable healthcare and creating living-wage jobs.
She also said Zepnick has not been an effective legislator for the district. The south side district is 53.6 percent Hispanic, according to statisticalatlas.com, a website that breaks down data from the 2010 U.S. Census.
"It's not enough to just say I support a certain issue. You have to bring attention to those issues and stay on them and effect some kind of change," she said.
Still, the allegations against Zepnick are likely to be a driving factor in the race. Zepnick stopped caucusing with Dems following the allegations, and he was stripped of his committee assignments.
Cabrera, meanwhile, has announced the support of several traditional Dem groups such as: AFSCME Council 32, American Federation of Teachers Local 212 COPE, Wisconsin Education Association Council, Milwaukee Teachers' Education Association, Citizen Action of Wisconsin, Wisconsin Working Families Party and the Wisconsin League of Conservation Voters.
Immediately after the Capital Times first reported in December that two women had accused him of kissing them without their permission, Zepnick said he had no recollection of the alleged incidents, took the claims seriously and apologized to the women.
In the interview with WisPolitics.com, Zepnick described the original stories detailing the allegations against him as lopsided and unfair, adding descriptions of the allegations were "shifting and changing."
There were no substantive differences in allegations raised in the original article and a follow-up in which both women called on Zepnick to resign, according to check of the stories.
Zepnick also said he inquired as to whether the two women would be interested in speaking with him, but he got no "indication that that door is open." So he offered a public apology when the stories broke.
Zepnick added people in the district saw the reports on the allegations "for what it was and a one-sidedness to it."
"They also know that people who are good people, like me, hardworking people and thoughtful, caring people, can sometimes make mistakes especially when alcohol is involved, and I've taken steps to correct that, which is what everyone should want to see happen," Zepnick said.

RE/MAX Touting its Support of LGBTQ Community for Pride Month
June 7, 2019, 6:58 pm By Tracey Velt
RE/MAX, LLC has launched a series of social media, advocacy and editorial initiatives in support of Pride month. Visitors to its Facebook page have shown appreciation for the new profile picture the franchise is using in June.
"RE/MAX has a culture of being involved, we don't sit on the sidelines," says Mike Reagan, Senior Vice President Industry Relations and Global Growth and Development at RE/MAX. Reagan recently joined the National Association of Gay and Lesbian Real Estate Professionals, or NAGLREP, in Washington, D.C., at the organization's annual policy conference.
NAGLREP recently released its third annual LGBT Real Estate Report, which identified that LGBT homeownership rates are currently at 49%, far below the 65% national mark. The report explored how discrimination has impacted the low number.
Needless to say, many in the real estate community, RE/MAX included, are supporters of a bill that would amend the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to prohibit discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity in employment, public accommodations, public education, federal funding, credit, the jury system and housing.
The Equality Act, which was introduced in 1974, 2015 and 2017, had previously never reached the floor for a vote, but was passed by the House in May. However, it's not expected to be taken up in the GOP-led Senate.

Q: nullability specifier cannot be applied to non-pointer type error in Foundation? I'm trying to compile some Objective-C++ files in C++ cmake based project. I'm getting an error similar to this:

This is my first time working with Objective-C/C++ but the issue appears to be in some standard header? The uuid_t is defined (ultimately) as unsigned char[16].
Simplest code producing the error:
// main.mm
#import <Metal/Metal.h>
int main() {
  id <MTLDevice> device = MTLCreateSystemDefaultDevice();
}

Thoughts on Education Policy: Trouble for the Teaching Fellows?
A new survey by the UFT finds pretty big discrepancies between the perception of training by NYC Teaching Fellows versus traditionally trained teachers.
Just 5 percent of teachers who answered the union's survey said their training through the city's Teaching Fellows program was "excellent," compared to 21 percent of graduates of education schools. And while 18 percent of education school graduates called their training "poor" or "fair," that figure was nearly 50 percent for Teaching Fellows.
As a former Teaching Fellow, I never thought the training was particularly bad. Like everything, it could have been better -- but it always seemed to me that there were dozens of much larger issues. So, I wonder how much of this is driven by the fact that Teaching Fellows were more extensively trained in another field before getting a crash course in education and rushing into difficult positions in troubled schools. Those people in those circumstances might feel very differently about equally good training than would an ed school graduate who'd been preparing for his/her position for years and landed a less stressful job.
Assuming the survey is representative, though, these stats really don't look good for the program. Of course, since only 81 out of over 9,000 active Teaching Fellows took part in the survey we can' be sure about this (which doesn't necessarily mean it's not representative, just that we're less confident about its representativeness than if, say, 900 teachers had taken part). The initial response of the Fellows was to point out the small sample size, but that could backfire if a larger sample size eventually responds similarly.
What I think is even more interesting, though, is the larger context of this survey for the Teaching Fellows. The article describes The New Teacher Project (TNTP), the fellows' parent organization as "a nonprofit group that also lobbies on teacher quality issues including in favor of evaluations that consider student test scores" (emphasis added) . . . which I think says a lot.
I first wrote about this almost five years ago, but TNTP and TFA seem to keep branching out into areas well beyond filling openings in troubled schools. TFA has started getting a lot of push-back, and I think that's due more to their policy positions, lobbying, support of school board candidates, etc. than it is their actual day-to-day operations. If this survey is any indicator, TNTP may soon find itself in a similar position.
In other words, while I'm sure many are concerned about the actual recruitment and training of teachers, I'd wager that fewer people would be as concerned if TNTP weren't also lobbying for all sorts of unpopular changes.
On the one hand, I blame TNTP for branching out too far. If they'd just focus on recruiting and training teachers, they could do their job a lot better and with less risk of interference. On the other hand, it would be a shame if TNTP's work mattered less than its lobbying when reviewing its performance.
