'Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse' Official Trailer
In 2018, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse came out and took the world by storm. The second it was released, it was heralded as not only the best animated film of that year but one of the best animated films of all time. Its multiple animation styles and changing frame rates gave it a look and feel that had never been seen before from an animated film providing a fresh look at not just Spider-Man – in this film Spider-Man is portrayed by fan favorite Miles Morales, not Peter Parker – but a fresh look at animation as an art form.
A super late release date (December 14) and a lack of any real awards push didn't stop Into the Spider-Verse from absolutely annihilating the awards season picking up wins at BAFTA, Golden Globes, PGA, the Annie Awards, and, of course, the Academy Awards. The duo of Phil Lord and Chris Miller, who have directed the animated films Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs and The Lego Movie, spearheaded the project as producers, not directors – Lord was one of the two credited screenwriters alongside Rodney Rothman – and have since then backed this franchise as well as animation as a whole producing the Oscar-nominated Mitchells vs. The Machines a few years after.
The follow-up to Into the Spider-Verse was titled Across the Spider-Verse, and was actually supposed to have a release date of this past summer in April of 2022, but was pushed back to October 2022 due to the Coronavirus Pandemic. Then, surprisingly, the film had another delay not soon after the initial one which placed this film firmly on June 2, 2023. Before the second delay, a teaser trailer was shown stating that Across the Spider-Verse would actually be part one in a two-part multiversal Spider-Man event with the third installment titled Across the Spider-Verse Part 2. This was later changed to Beyond the Spider-Verse and is scheduled to be released on March 29. 2024.
Across the Spider-Verse brings back Shameik Moore and Hailee Steinfeld as Miles Morales (Spider-Man) and Gwen Stacy (Spider-Gwen) respectively, and adds in Oscar Isaac as Miguel O'Hara (Spider-Man 2099), Daniel Kaluuya as Hobart Brown (Spider-Punk), and Issa Rae as Jessica Drew (Spider-Woman). Jason Schwartzman is voicing the main villain Jonathan Ohnn (The Spot). Jake Johnson who voiced Peter B. Parker (the Spider-Man mentor of Miles Morales) will be back as well as Bryan Tyree Henry as Jefferson Davis and Luna Lauren Velez as Rio Morales (the parents of Miles Morales). This won't be all as Across the Spider-Verse is currently set to include 240 total characters, far more than Into the Spider-Verse; this massive project has required this film to bring on the largest crew ever assembled for an animated movie.
Phil Lord will be working on the script again, this time along with fellow collaborator Christopher Miller and Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings writer Dave Callaham – the trio is expected to do Beyond the Spider-Verse as well. Justin K. Thompson and Joaquim Dos Santos will be directing for the first time, but will be joined by a recent Oscar-nominee for his One Night in Miami… script and co-director of the Oscar-winning animated film Soul, Kemp Powers – the trio are also expected to be back for Beyond the Spider-Verse.
It has already been announced that Across the Spider-Verse would feature six different animation styles throughout and is expected to be a major player in not only Best Animated Feature – a category it will likely be an early frontrunner for – but in many other categories as well. With a better release date than the original and a better understanding of what this film really is and can be, the sky is the limit for it when it comes to garnering love from the Academy. However, with only three animated films ever receiving a Best Picture nomination, the only thing it has to get past is the bias against animation; an uphill battle that Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio is fighting this season.

Written by Crew member, Derek Rozanski.
The 2017 OCR season is coming to a close, but that does not mean that Crew members are hanging up their trail shoes just yet! This past weekend brought forth a plethora of races all across the East Coast ranging from Boston, MA down to the Carolinas. Fifteen Crew members total competed, representing at Spartan Race's Fenway Stadium Sprint weekend, South Carolina Beast weekend, and Tri-State Super, and at the New York City Marathon.
Written by Crew member, Eric Zucaro.
Nearly a year ago, I saw a weird petition for a Spartan Ultra Beast at the Rough Creek Lodge venue in Glen Rose (Iredell, TX). I signed my name because, well, I've never been to Texas and I thought it would be a really fun first experience. Then, months later in 2018, the Ultra Beast opened up for registration! I couldn't believe it. I've never flown for a race (I drove to Toronto, CAN for one but that's about it); this could be very exciting! Two weeks later, I signed up and I started researching the venue—unpredictable weather, cacti all over the trails, flat terrain, and maybe one or two large hills. Sounded like a really fast Ultra Beast—a race to test my mettle! How fast could I run and how long could I hold on?

That is one beautiful motherboard, and the addressable RGB LEDs are built into the rear PCB shield on the right side, and I believe in the FCH heat sink. The IO shield RGBs and the RGBs under the PCI-E slots seem to be normal RGB LEDs. Either way, the motherboard is rather brilliant when the lights are dim, and even when they are not, it has solid, sleek aesthetics.

CEB's Wenzel encourages Anastasiades to do more on NPLs
The governor of the Council of Europe Development Bank (CEB) Rolf Wenzel said recently that the lender will continue supporting economic recovery in Cyprus and advised more action to reduce non-performing loans.
"We are ready to do more in the coming weeks and months," Wenzel told reporters, according to the Press and Information Office.
The lender was looking into financing infrastructure projects in the areas of water supply and education, said Wenzel after meeting President Nicos Anastasiades and Finance Minister Harris Georgiades. He said that Anastasiades briefed him on the reunification talks which broke down almost a year ago.
According to the Public Debt Management Office, the government's outstanding debt to the CEB was €232.5m at the end of 2017.
Wenzel said that Cyprus needs to do more to reduce delinquent loans in the banking system, accounting for almost half of the banks' loan portfolio, and added that the government was making progress in tackling them.
He said that the economy was recovering on a strong performance of the tourism sector and a strengthening of the banking sector.
Monday's discussions also focused on the economic situation in Europe and the upcoming European Summit at the end of June.

One thing people often fear when they think of filing for bankruptcy is the fate of their assets. Too many people make the mistake of attempting to hide or sell assets prior to their filing, leaving them at risk of a case dismissal or even suspicions of fraud.
The transfer or sale of an asset prior to or in bankruptcy is prohibited unless specific criteria is met. If you sell an asset prior to filing bankruptcy you must sell that asset for fair market value, meaning you cannot charge less than or more than what the asset is actually worth. Keep in mind that the asset's value may have changed from the value of when you purchased it. The fair market value stipulation can make the sale of an asset difficult because it can be challenging to determine the fair value. In other words, selling your motorcycle to Dan from Craigslist may not be a safe option.
Once you have sold an asset you must report the income from that sale on your bankruptcy filing petition, along with all of your other financial details. Attempting to conceal the income is considered fraudulent alongside the action of giving an asset away to protect it from the case to begin with. If you used the money from the sale of the asset to pay down a debt, you must also report and have documentation of that payment at the time of your filing.
While the fear of losing assets isn't completely unjustified, the truth is that the Texas bankruptcy exemption laws are very lenient in allowing much of your property to be protected from liquidation. Always be honest with your lawyer and abide by the rules of the bankruptcy code. The bankruptcy process is meant to help you, don't take the wrong action and jeopardize your chances at a successful debt discharge.


The Landons are noble, intelligent folk from the land of Terma.
The Landons rule the territory in the West of Terma, albeit the majority of their population is situated in the southern areas of their lands. They rule a vast swath of biomes, including grasslands, forests and even some mountains in the North. Because of their proximity, they have received many visits from the Sholan.
The Landons swear allegiance to their king/queen. The King has control of national matters, such as taxation of the counties, external military matters (Including alliances), external trade, the high court and the division of counties. The Queen can also control these things, but her opinion is second to that of the King. Should the King die, the Queen assumes full control of the kingdom. Should both the King and Queen die, the titles pass to their eldest child and his/her spouse. There is no other way short of rebellion for the royal rulers to be usurped. The King/Queen also have control of a very large army.
Beneath the King/Queen, there are Counts/Countesses, who are appointed by the King/Queen and who run different regions of the kingdom. Aside from the matter of collecting and paying the taxes to the monarchy, the Counts/Countesses have relative free reign. They are free to collect any surplus tax, to raise their own armies, control their county's exports/imports within the kingdom, and settle civil disputes within their county. They can be replaced at any time on the authority of the King/Queen.
One final thing worth mentioning is the triad of royal symbols. These are symbols that represent animals which in some way embody an aspect of royalty. The symbols are often used by the nobility in designing clothing, crests, banners and mosaics. The three animals include the Raven, representing how a leader must be cunning to keep their leadership. In darker ways, the Raven also represents treachery required by politics. The second animal is the Horse, representing how leaders must help the people, and must react swiftly to the needs of their subjects. This is the most neglected of the three symbols. The final symbol is of the Dragon, representative of the inherent power that comes with royalty, and of the strength that is required by it. The Dragon also represents the greed that a leader can succumb to.
It is unknown how the Landons originated. It could be possible that they were simply a group of people from various groups who united for a common cause and continued under that leadership.
The Landons have long been important members of the Terman society. They tend not to form too many transactions, preferring to be self-sufficient.
The Landons do not have any areas in which they visibly excel, rather they maintain acceptable expertise in all areas that matter to them, such as the military, architecture and agriculture. Many Landon peasants are farmers.


Bangalore: Metropolitan India yearns to project a global face but it is hardly able to provide basic amenities to its citizens. Bangalore, India's Silicon Valley, stands out as a classic example of the country's shoddy urban infrastructure. Corruption in public services and scams involving private contractors across other big cities such as New Delhi and Ahmedabad only reinforce the trend.
Earlier this month, the Bangalore municipal corporation, or Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP), uncovered a garbage scam wherein garbage contractors in connivance with health and medical officials had funnelled out Rs60 crore by neglecting to clean the city's streets and producing fake bills.
This is yet another instance of how India's Silicon Valley is struggling with its poor infrastructure and sanitation and apathetic governance. Waste management experts say only awareness among citizens and monitoring of private contractors can set things right in India's technology capital.
Every monsoon the city's drains overflow and mix with uncollected and untreated garbage. As a result the state-run Epidemics Disease Hospital overflows with cases of leptospirosis, amoebiasis and infectious hepatitis. "Every year there will be so many cases that there won't be enough place to put beds," said a doctor at the specialist hospital with 120 beds.
The frequency at which garbage scams occur increase as India's garbage grows at an estimated 5% year-on-year. Across Indian cities, scams surface, enquiries follow and the well-oiled nexus between corporators and contractors continues. "Garbage is a mafia type of business… There are lots of irregularities," opines Amiya Kumar Sahu, president of Mumbai-based, National Solid Waste Association of India, a partly government funded, in the field of solid waste management.
In October, the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation unearthed a garbage scam at the Pirana landfill site where private contrators were dumping mud and stones in place of garbage and claiming payments for the entire weight dumped in the landfill. Mumbai and New Delhi also time to time sees cases of real botched job and municipal corporation employees siphoning diesel from the garbage collection vehicles, while streets in smaller cities like Kochi and Patna are piled with uncleared garbage.
"Waste scams with private contractors faking bills are extremely common in all Indian cities," says Saswat Bandyopadhyay, head of the department of environmental planning, Faculty of Planning and Public Policy at the Ahmedabad-based Centre for Environmental Planning and Technology University. "But (waste scams are) not very common worldwide due to stringent monitoring by the local bodies."
No Indian city is in fact clean. In February, Forbes magazine in a report rated India's biggest metropolises, Mumbai, as the seventh and Delhi as 24th dirtiest cities, respectively. The Forbes report was based on human resources consultancy Mercer Llc.'s 2007 Quality of Life Report on air pollution, waste management, water potability, hospital supplies, medical services and the presence of infectious diseases.
So is privatization or outsourcing of municipal corporations' services to blame? Opinions vary but most say no. "Privatization is good provided you monitor. Nobody is monitoring because their pockets are full," says Sahu of the National Solid Waste Association of India. Municipal bodies across India have varying levels of privatization, with Bangalore about 40% privatized and Mumbai about 50%.
The Union government in 2000 notified the Municipal Solid Wastes (Management and Handling) Rules making the local administration of cities responsible for collecting, segregating and scientifically disposing garbage. But the rules are heavily violated.
Even private contractors concede there are obvious irregularities in the system. "As of today, 85-90% (of waste) is illegally dumped. There is no scientific method," says M. Goutham Reddy, chief executive officer of Hyderabad-based private waste management company Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd. Reddy claims that his Rs300 crore company, which manages municipal waste in cities like Mumbai, New Delhi, Bangalore and Coimbatore, belongs to the minority group of contractors which segregates and composts waste in line with the Municipal Solid Waste Rules.
But the company hardly has a clean slate. For instance in March, Ramky Enviro Engineers was mired in a controversy over a proposed hazardous waste management project in Gummidipoondi, Tamil Nadu, with local citizens up in arms and financiers like the World Bank on the back foot.
Having given up on government bodies and private players, Iqbal Malik, founder director of New Delhi-based non-profit Vatavaran, one of the pioneers in solid waste management in New Delhi, feels the only way out of the maze of garbage scams is to make aware citizens segregate and compost garbage.
Vishwanath M. Prabhu, treasurer of Resident Initiative for Safe Environment, an 11-year old neighbourhood association in Tippasandra, a residential area in the east Bangalore, plans to demand daily and regular garbage collection in the upcoming meeting with ward officials held on the first Friday of every month. "Garbage is often lying in the street for two days," says Prabhu. According to him, things were better before private contractors were engaged in 2004. At least BBMP's workers used to clear garbage at a regular, scheduled time.
But BBMP is on the defensive. Deputy commissioner health, K.S. Venkateshappa says: "Garbage collection is going on regularly. There may be some stray incidences." He says the corporation will act on the recently unearthed garbage scam report shortly; the corporation's audit committee is currently auditing the report.
Not only is garbage not collected regularly, it is collected only to be illegally dumped from one street to the next. Some five months back, Bangalore-based non-profit Foundation for Education Innovations in Asia forced corporators to clear the garbage dumped in the slums of Koramangala, a south-eastern suburb of the city.
"The garbage had been dumped in the Koramangala slums from neighbouring better localities, making it difficult to even walk there," says Sebastian Devaraj, coordinator of community-based sanitation and slum development at the foundation. The foundation gathered 2,000 from the slum and blocked the roads and, the corporators rushed in to clear the garbage.
Community participation and public disclosure are the only ways out of the "cess pool of corruption in city corporations", according to Mint columnist Ramesh Ramanathan, co-founder of Bangalore-based non-profit, Janaagraha, and national technical adviser to Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM), a Union government initiative aimed at improving the quality of infrastructure in urban areas. JNNURM has proposed laws for mandatory community participation and public disclosure of accounts by city corporations, which many states are in the process of adopting. For instance Andhra Pradesh, Assam and Gujarat have taken the lead in implementing the community participation law and Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Tripura and Uttar Pradesh have done so for the public disclosure law.
In earlier years, non-profits such as the Resident Initiative for Safe Environment, Waste Wise and the Foundation for Education Innovations in Asia in Bangalore and Vatavaran in New Delhi used to segregate and compost garbage, but all of these have stopped or drastically reduced in scale with citizens' apathy, lack of encouragement from the corporations and the onset of large-scale private contractors.
Non-governmental organizations today play a miniscule role in solid waste management as India creates 42 million tonnes of garbage per annum (as per the 2001 census). Between 1997 and 2001, garbage volumes in India were almost steady, but since then it has been growing and is expected to grow at 5% year-on-year with residential and commercial complexes mushrooming across Indian cities.
As for Bangalore, which contributes one-third of India's software exports, gleaming offices of multinationals sit awkwardly amid the choked drains and mounds of uncollected garbage that can result in the outbreaks of cholera and gastroenteritis.


Who are Troon Tortoises? We're a Troon based running club formed in 1976 who don't take ourselves too seriously. We're not an elitist club, we're very inclusive! We were nominated for the Provost Sloan Trophy, club of the year for inclusion in sport last year. I'm completely blind so one of the big things the club does is give help to those with no experience in guide running.
Where and when do you meet? Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7pm at Marr College.
How many members? There are around 50. We have all ages but there's a big group of older runners who have produced some great results. George McGregor, for example, was first in the over-65 category at the Great Scottish Run Half Marathon last year. We work in conjunction with Monkton Milers, assisting them with people getting started jogging. Many of those joggers go on to develop the confidence to move on to running competently and end up joining our club.
Famous past members? Among the founders was Ian Whittle, the father of Brian. Other successful athletes who started their careers with the Tortoises were Hazel Melvin who at one stage was top ranked high jumper in her age group in Britain, Marsella Robertson who was a Commonwealth Games finalist in the 1500m and Vicki MacPherson who came second in the World Student Cross Country Championships and first in the Scottish Cross Country Championships.
Associated with other clubs? Yes, there's a lot of cross-pollination with other clubs. There's the Troon Coastal Rowing Club which some of our members have ended up getting involved in and their members have come to our running club. The local triathlon club is also one we're involved with; one of the triathlon members passed away and we organised a memorial race for him in February.
Social aspect? There's a really strong social element to the club. We always have a Christmas night out. A group of 12 of us went up in a mini-bus for the Great Scottish Run this year then afterwards went for a meal and drinks. We'll also do things like go for targeted runs but with the emphasis on socialising. We have a slightly quirky sense of humour but we're a fun bunch!
Club events? We organise the Troon Tortoise 10K which is the biggest midweek 10k in Scotland. 7 May is the 2014 date. There's always a big demand for it. We opened entries in January this year and places sold out by February.
Which races do club members take part in? Too many to mention! We're always keen to support local races but our members also go running all over the world. Ayr Turkey Trot on Boxing Day is popular as is the Harriers vs Cyclists which is an obstacle race with runners and cyclists competing against each other. Virgin London Marathon is a big one for us too. Personally I'm a fan of ultras. One of my favourite races is the D33 near Aberdeen. I just love the camaraderie of ultra running. Everyone helps each other along and it's a very relaxed environment.
Any notable current members? Yes there are lots. Ann Noble is one of my guide runners and she's been brilliant. She does a lot of ultras and was first lady for her age group at the Niagara Falls Marathon. There's Mark Caldwell who was second in The Spire, a race in Spain. He led throughout but was pipped at the post!
What about women runners? We have had an issue in the past with women joining the club but not taking part in any events - that's changing though. We had six runners at the Great Scottish Run Half Marathon this year and for members Yvonne Feggans and Clare Bain, it was their first half marathon!
Anything else? I'd like to give a special mention our club secretary John McKinlay who recently completed his 70th marathon in his 70th year. He is critically ill right now so everyone at the club is thinking of him and wishing him the best.

Astronomers find seven Earth-size planets where life is possible
By Irene Klotz CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (Reuters) - Astronomers have found a nearby solar system with seven Earth-sized planets, three of which circle their parent star at the right distance for liquid surface water, bolstering the prospect of discovering extraterrestrial life, research published on Wednesday showed. It is located about 40 light years away from Earth, close by astronomical standards, but about 44 million years away at the average cruising speed of a commercial passenger jet.

May 2021—McGraw Hill publishes NP modules for Chicago Public Schools
For the second time in known history, Chicago Public School students will get to learn about New Philadelphia!
This time, McGraw Hill Education has published two modules in its digital curriculum for Chicago Public School fifth graders. One tells the story of Frank and Lucy McWorter and New Philadelphia. The other is a simulation, namely, students take different roles and debate the merits of making New Philadelphia part of the National Park Service! So it's very timely, and you can have a look at the story and the simulation.
The first time New Philadelphia was in Chicago's elementary school curriculum was when schoolteacher Thelma McWorter, Frank and Lucy's great-granddaughter, who was raised in New Philadelphia, brought the story, with documentation.
There are other curriculum projects published by the National Park Service, namely Teaching With History Places and H/our History.
We're so glad all this is happening!

Help us preserve the New Philadelphia site.
Founded in 1836 by Frank McWorter, New Philadelphia is the first known town planned and legally registered by an African American in the United States. Frank McWorter used his earnings to purchase 16 family members out of slavery. The site of this frontier community of European Americans and African Americans is a nationally significant archeological site advancing our understanding of free, rural communities and the abolitionist cause in the antebellum era.

Planting the seeds of science and skepticism: Interview with 'Annabelle and Aiden' author J.R. Becker
Reality — more amazing and beautiful than fairy tales?
The world is a place of wonder and magic for children who are, by nature, curious little creatures. Their worldly inexperience, however, leaves them vulnerable, gullible and open to exploitation, which can cause problems with rationalizing, critical thinking and reasoning later on in life.
We're living in a renewed age of misinformation, conspiracy and pseudoscience, which means that introducing young children to healthy skepticism is a must. But how? Pro-science children's book series Annabelle and Aiden by J.R. Becker is helping to do just that, and without ruining the so-called "magic of childhood."
AiPT!: Why do you think it's important to start talking about science and our world at a younger age, rather than just relying on fictional stories like fairy tales, myths or folklore?
Becker: I think there is inherent value in truth, and just the fact that it's true. It's kind of … to me it's so self-evident and obvious that it's hard for me to put into words why it matters that we don't lie to children, and why it matters that children and adults understand the reality around us. I could talk about GMOs, vaccines and climate change, the pro-life/pro-choice debate. All of these debates are evidence-based. The more we can inspire children and get them on the right track to be curious about reality? I think it's important for several reasons.
The first is just being in awe of the natural world. It's an incredible and magical, an inspiring thing. The second reason is so that when these children grow up and begin making decisions, influencing the world through the products that they buy, it will affect how they react towards things, like buying medicine or choosing alternative medicine. It will help them when people try to come and ask for their money for pseudoscience purposes. It will help them just be a citizen in the world. And when they vote with their money in the supermarket or at the voting booth, they'll be able to make important and informed decisions. Another reason would be to inspire the inventors and scientists who can change the world.
The fourth reason I would give, I'm just brainstorming here, but I think morality is an important aspect of this conversation. Having evidence-based morality as opposed to a doctrine-based morality is a very important thing. When someone is grounded in science, they're more inclined to act on an evidence-based reality and not do something we think is right or wrong because some other authority, whether natural or supernatural, tells them.
AiPT!: Those are all some very good reasons. Okay, let's talk about the books.
Becker: When I made the first book, I thought I might make it into a series one day, depending on how it went. Making a book on evolution was really at the forefront of my mind. Some people love the climate, some people love the dinosaurs and paleontology, or maybe astrophysics. For me, personally, nothing speaks to me like evolution does. I knew I needed to make a book about it. It's the most inspiring thing that I could comprehend.
So, the first book, Story of Life, is on evolution. It did pretty well, so I thought I'd make the series. I always had the idea that myths would be perfect for children's books — things like storks delivering babies and flat Earth, aliens and the Loch Ness monster. The second book is on critical thinking and skepticism and it's about all of those myths. It's called Oh, The Things We Believed!
I almost didn't want to do a book about the Big Bang and how "we are all stardust," because I felt like it was overdone, and we were talking about it all the time. BUT people kept asking me to do it, so for the third book, I did. It's called, Worlds Within Us, and it did extremely well. I think the first book raised $4,400 on Kickstarter and every book thereafter raised $7,000 more than the one before it. By the third book we were raising maybe $17,000 on Kickstarter.
I mean, it was very encouraging, and people liked it a lot, but I didn't know what to do after the third book. A lot of mothers and parents told me that I needed to do a book on death. I thought about it and then Stephen Fry and Neil deGrasse Tyson, two people that have spoken about death from the humanist standpoint, really inspired me. I wrote What Happens When We Die. I took a big risk doing that. I didn't even want to put the word "die" in the title. I thought it was a negative word, but parents and childhood specialists told me that I need to, and not to beat around the bush, to tackle it head-on. I did. And I'm so glad I did. I think it's my most popular book. It's definitely the most important book I've ever written. Someone read it at a funeral. It was just a powerful thing.
Lastly, the fifth book. I thought I just wanted to come back to evolution, but based only on human evolution this time. So, Sapiens is our human evolution story.
AiPT!: Those are some huge concepts. How do you process them and figure out how to address it to children?
Becker: People have told me, "It's not a story, it's just a bunch of facts," and I'm like well it IS a story, it's a story through time. There was the first living thing, then it had babies, made copies of itself. Some of them were different, some got weeded out by the environment. I mean, I try to tell it as a story.
A lot of times when I think of a topic like a death or human evolution, I spend a long time researching and try to pick out the most fascinating and inspiring details about it, and I try to emphasize those. Like in Worlds Within Us, we're all made of stardust. I read that we have the power of hydrogen bombs in our body through our energy. We probably have pieces of Shakespeare in our body because his molecules have dispersed through the universe, and there's so many of them that each one of us probably has part of a molecule from him, or other famous people. I try to find whimsical ways to relate it to children, and interesting facts so people can read it and think, "Wow, I had no idea this was true. This is amazing." I try to really relate it to us on a concrete level.
AiPT!: Can you tell me about the illustrations? They are absolutely stunning.
Becker: Yes! So, she goes by the name Max Rambaldi. I email her a long and detailed synopsis of what I would like her to do for each page. Then she sends me her work, and then I ask if she could make that brighter, move this to the right, make him smiling there, and … she probably wants to kill me for that. But we just go back and forth until it's ready. She lives in Italy, I found her on the internet, and one thing that will shock you — it shocks everyone I tell — is that we have never actually spoken or met. We handle everything over email and have for years. It's amazing that the internet could bring people together like this.
AiPT!: Are there any plans for future Annabelle and Aiden? Will you be taking on any conventions or other events?
Becker: So, I came out with the last five titles all within the past three and a half years. I have a little less time now since I started a new day job and things are just busy. For now, I'm just going to focus on selling the five books that I have, but I definitely do have plans for more, and have a ton ideas. I probably won't come out with a new title for another year or two, but after that I hope for come out with four new titles or so. I'd like to have 8 to 10 titles total. Maybe some fun stuff will aliens or microbes ….
I try to go to a few events a year. I've been to several Ethical Culture Society events. I don't know if you've heard of them, but they're kind of a humanist group. There's about 10 congregations of them along the East Coast, and I've spoken at five of them. They've really enjoyed it; I've enjoyed it. I also spoke at the American Humanist Association Conference last summer. That was a really wonderful experience and sort of a breakthrough for me. And I'm really looking forward to going to NECSS coming up in New York in July.
For more about Annabelle and Aiden or J.R. Becker, you can find him on Facebook, Instagram, or directly at their website.
Becker will be selling copies of his books at NECSS on July 13 and 14 (the same conference hosting AiPT! Comics presents: The Science and Philsophy of X-Men Biology!). Register today, before prices go up on June 24!
AiPT! Science is co-presented by AiPT! Comics and the New York City Skeptics. NECSS is a collaboration between the New York City Skeptics and the New England Skeptical Society.
Annabelle and Aiden series
This series is fantastic for any family. The books are well-written and visually stunning. The rhyming scheme makes them appealing to young children, but the facts inserted into the artwork appeal to young and old alike.
Makes huge concepts available to children
Helps ease apprehension towards science with welcoming storyline
Beautiful illustrations with adorable characters

Q: No provider for @Inject('environment') in Unit Test with Angular & JEST I have a problem how to test one of our services writing in angular app (version 13).
This is part of the service (AdressService) which I want to test:
@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root'
})
export class AddressService {
  private formDataSource = new BehaviorSubject<ICreateEditAddress>({
    id: null,
    company: null,
    lastName: null,
    firstName: null,
    street: null,
    streetNumber: null,
    zip: null,
    city: null,
    country: null,
    countryOptions: null,
    formFields: null
  });
  public readonly formData = this.formDataSource.asObservable();

  constructor(
    @Inject(LOCALE_ID) private language: string,
    private graphQlService: GraphQLService,
  ) {
  }
  public async getAddressDetailsForm(id?: string | number): Promise<ICreateEditAddress> {
    return this.graphQlService.performStandardQuery<IGetAddressDetailsResponse>({
      query: createEditAddressQuery,
      queryVariables: {
        lang: this.language,
        id: id || null,
      },
      relatedObservable: this.addressGetDetailsObservable,
    }).then(result => {
      if (typeof result?.data?.address === 'object') {
        this.formDataSource.next({
          ...this.filterAddressDetailsResponse(result.data.address)
        });
      }
      return result?.data?.address;
    });
  }
}

Inside GraphQLService I have:
@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root'
})
export class GraphQLService {
  constructor(
    @Inject(LOCALE_ID) protected language: string,
    protected apollo: Apollo,
    protected error: ErrorService,
    private router: Router,
    private browser: BrowserService,
  ) {
  }
}

Finally in ErrorService I have:
@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root'
})
export class ErrorService {
  private messageSubject = new Subject<IErrorEvent>();
  public readonly message = this.messageSubject.asObservable();
  private readonly renderer: Renderer2;

  constructor(
    @Inject('environment') public environment: any,
    private browser: BrowserService,
    rendererFactory: RendererFactory2,
  ) {
    this.renderer = rendererFactory.createRenderer(null, null);
  }
}

My test case look like:
describe('Address service', () => {
  let service: AddressService;

  beforeEach(() => {
    TestBed.configureTestingModule({
      // imports: [AppModule], { provide: APP_BASE_HREF, useValue: '/'} - not working, generating error NotSupportedError: This name has already been registered in the registry.
      providers: [AddressService, GraphQLService, Apollo, ErrorService, Router, BrowserService], //
      // providers: [AddressService, GraphQLService, Apollo, ErrorService, Router, BrowserService] -> not working missing declaration for environment which is  @Inject('environment') public environment: any in ErrorService. This is file with configuration, one const which is exported.
      // Error: NullInjectorError: R3InjectorError(DynamicTestModule)[AddressService -> GraphQLService -> ErrorService -> environment -> environment]:
      // NullInjectorError: No provider for environment!
    });
    service = TestBed.inject(AddressService);
  });

  it('should be created', () => {
    expect(service).toBeTruthy();
  });

  it('should return an empty address', async () => {
    await service.getAddressDetailsForm('1');
    await service.getAddressDetailsForm();
    const form = service.getFormData();
    expect(form.city).toBeNull();
  });
});

I try on several way to use @Inject('environment') -> to solve problem. When I adding services like in example above I got error like:
NullInjectorError: R3InjectorError(DynamicTestModule)[AddressService -> GraphQLService -> ErrorService -> environment -> environment]:
      NullInjectorError: No provider for environment!

When I remove all providers but keep only providers: [AddressServices] and add imports: [AppModule] then I got this error:
NotSupportedError: This name has already been registered in the registry.

Can you help me to solve that problem?

A: You shouldn't be importing AppModule. In unit tests, you only import/provide the single class/element you are testing, and mock any dependencies it might have.
In this case, you would provide AddressService, along with a value for LOCALE_ID and a mock of GraphQLService. Nothing more.

Allen III (Gnarls Barkley, Animal Collective, Deerhunter).The record shows an evolution in maturity of songwriting and sound, and deftly executes a wide array of the bands influences."
•→ Après un 4ème album plutôt décevant, Kaiser Chiefs retourne à des effets plus basiques. Le disque est assez inégal, il y a toutefois quelques titres accrocheurs. A découvrir.
•→ It's not easy keeping a band going when the main songwriter leaves. But Kaiser Chiefs singer Ricky Wilson reckons the departure of Nick Hodgson gave him a sense of purpose. "To be honest, I was more angry at myself for having not pulled my weight, for getting lazy," he told the Guardian's Tim Jonze. "Somewhere along the way we lost that anger. So basically, he did me a massive favour."
•→ Kaiser Chiefs have never again reached the heights of their 2005 debut album Employment. In fact, it wouldn't be unfair to say that the career of the Leeds five-piece has been on a downward spiral ever since, with each subsequent release more forgettable than the last. However, while the albums have not lived up to expectations, the Kaiser Chiefs have managed to pull the odd single out of the bag every now and then.
•→ Their second album Yours Truly, Angry Mob had the addictive Ruby and Everything Is Average Nowadays, while even 2008's Off With Their Heads had UK Top 5 single Never Miss A Beat. It was for perhaps this reason that they took the brave — or foolish — decision to give fans the opportunity of picking their 10 favourite tracks from 20 possible songs to create their own version of the band's fourth album, The Future Is Medieval.
•→ Whether it was an artistic move or something done for purely marketing purposes, the choose-your-own album project didn't quite reinvigorate their career in the way they probably wanted it to — although it did have the obligatory catchy single in Little Shocks. Two years on from that venture and following the departure of drummer Nick Hodgson, Kaiser Chiefs are back with their fifth record, the snappily titled Education, Education, Education & War.
•→ In many ways, the band's new record is a case of them going back to basics — with none of the gimmicks of its predecessor — but with lead singer Ricky Wilson now a judge on BBC talent show The Voice, Kaiser Chiefs didn't need to do anything too drastic to get attention this time around. The music is not a massive departure from what we've come to expect, either, as demonstrated by the lead single, Misery Company.
•→ "It's hard to believe that I smile in my sleep/ cause everyone leaves me/ I'm so hard to keep company," sings Wilson, over a thumping beat and a gritty guitar hook. While the demonic laughter that punctuates the track is, admittedly, something new for Kaiser Chiefs, the rest of the song falls in line with the sort of spiky, punk pop that created popular anthems such as I Predict A Riot during the first phase of their career.
•→ There are other similarities between Kaiser Chiefs' fifth album and their Mercury Prize-nominated debut, too. Opener The Factory Gates sets the tone for the record, which sees the band retread Employment thematically, with lyrics about their dissatisfaction with the modern age. Ignoring the sound of seagulls that opens the song, it is actually one of the album's highlights, with an incredibly infectious chorus.
•→ "You and me on the front line, you and me and every time," Wilson yells on Bow And Arrows, which continues the combative approach they take on Education, Education, Education & War — a title that takes inspiration from Tony Blair's famed 1997 speech. Although the political angle is not fully explored in the way the record's title suggests, six-minute Cannons does deliver an intriguing and rather damning verdict on politicians.
•→ Elsewhere, the problem of delivering an album that is consistently strong from start to finish rears its head again. While tracks such as the anthemic Coming Home and Ruffians On Parade are perfectly serviceable, they are not particularly memorable when compared to the likes Oh My God. The same can be said of Meanwhile Up In Heaven or One More Last Song, with both tracks essentially Kaiser Chiefs in second gear.
•→ That said, Education, Education, Education & War is a vast improvement on its predecessor. It may lack the standout hits of the band's earlier material, but the record does at least have the direction and purpose that has previously been missing. Whether Kaiser Chiefs can re-establish themselves as one of Britain's best is yet to be seen, but this is a good way to start.
Born: 17 January 1978 in Keighley, West Yorkshire.
•→ On 19 September 2013, Wilson was confirmed as a coach on The Voice UK, replacing Danny O'Donoghue in 2014.

Florida Man Tells Deputies the Cocaine on His Nose Is 'Not His,' Police Say
By Christina Zhao On 6/10/19 at 10:19 PM EDT
News Florida man Drugs Marijuana Cocaine
A Florida man was arrested over the weekend after authorities caught him with cocaine on his nose at a traffic stop.
At around 4:30 a.m. local time on Sunday, deputies from the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office pulled over a vehicle at a traffic stop in Tampa, Florida. When authorities approached the car, a female deputy immediately noticed that a passenger in the car, later identified as 20-year-old Fabricio Tueros Jimenez, had a white powdery substance on his nose, reported The Smoking Gun. Investigators recognized the powder as cocaine, police say.
Deputies photographed Jimenez's nose before swabbing the substance for a field test, the results of which proved that the substance did contain cocaine.
Authorities also found a backpack contained 250 grams of marijuana and 13 Xanax tablets after searching the vehicle and an additional small bag of cocaine in Jimenez's possession.
"Jimenez was arrested without incident but he attempted to tell the deputies the cocaine on his nose was not his," according to the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office.
In addition to the drug charges, Jimenez is also reportedly facing probation violation charges, according to The Smoking Gun, in connection with his arrest last year for being in possession of cocaine, cannabis and drug paraphernalia.
Jimenez was obtained by authorities last August after his vehicle, a 2009 Honda Accord, was pulled over by police at a traffic stop.
According to a police report, Florida police found a backpack in Jimenez's car that contained 11 individual clear plastic bags of green substance, consistent with the appearance of marijuana, which were packaged for individual sale. The bag also contained a digital scale with the residue of a green leafy substance and a package of cigarillos containing two hand-rolled joints.
After a further inspection of Jimenez's vehicle, police also found a prescription bottle in the front driver's side door pocket which contained four small clear plastic bags carrying a white powdery substance.
Jimenez eventually told police that the marijuana and cocaine belonged to him and admitted that he sold the marijuana for additional money.
Tampa, a city in Tampa Bay, along Florida's Gulf Coast, has a crime rate — 23 per one thousand residents — considerably higher than the national average across all communities in America, according to Neighborhood Scout. Around 57 percent of Florida communities have a lower crime rate than Tampa, whose roughly 385,000 residents have a one in 43 chance of becoming victim to either a violent or property crime in the area.

Business leaders: We need reopening guidance
Three down-Island organizations join forces to provide input for reopening the Cape and Islands economy for summer.
Businesses are looking for guidance from the state on how to reopen the Island for business.
Vineyard business organizations are lobbying the state for a set of reopening guidelines to allow them to open up and operate.
In a joint letter, the Oak Bluffs Association, the Vineyard Haven Business Association, and the Edgartown Board of Trade asked state Rep. Dylan Fernandes, D-Falmouth, state Sen. Julian Cyr, D-Truro, and Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce CEO Wendy Northcross to consider a set of "essential" proposals to be considered when the state develops its reopening guidelines.
The proposals include addressing ferry interruption; allowing brick and mortar stores to open at 50 percent capacity or a percentage determined by the state; an immediate relaxation of curbside pick up on Martha's Vineyard; access to "clear and consistent" signage for safety guidelines; access to bulk buying personal protective equipment; access to testing materials for towns and businesses; mobile sanitation stations; and allow restaurant requirements to be addressed locally.
"This needs to be along with a clear reopening plan," one of the proposals states. "It is impossible to think about summer staffing, product management, etc. without a reasonable expectation of time."
The proposals come as Gov. Charlie Baker's Reopening Advisory Board is working on a set of reopening guidelines for businesses statewide. Baker recently pushed back any reopening of businesses from May 4 to May 18.
The letter from the business associations' follows closely on the heels of a similar letter sent by the hotel and innkeepers of both Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket pleading with the governor's office for guidance that will help them preserve business on the two Islands, which rely so heavily on the tourism industry.
In addition to the joint letter, Island businesses advocates proposed separate guidelines for retail and restaurant establishments.
The retail guidelines propose employees wear masks or face coverings, sanitize their hands, encourage social distancing, limit interaction with outside visitors, and other protocols. For customer protection, the business groups propose customers wear masks, set a limit on customers inside the shop, have a system in stores to indicate six foot distances, and encourage businesses owners to go above and beyond with their own safety guidelines.
The restaurant guidelines ask for "clear and deliberate" guidance from the state, to allow for the to-go sale of hard alcohol and mixed drinks, the development of grants or allowing restaurants to keep their 6.25 percent meals tax as stimulus, protection from litigation by the public, and employees who claim to be infected at their establishments.
In a group email sent to people on Vineyard FutureWorks list, Christine Todd, executive director of the Oak Bluffs Association, wrote: "The three down Island business associations have been collaborating to have our voices heard. I reached out to Tisbury and Edgartown to work toward establishing a unified voice on this. We've had four meetings in the last 10 days. The [executive director] from the Cape chamber, Wendy Northcross, has been asked by Baker's office to submit recommendations/concerns of the Cape and Islands. We met yesterday to address our major ones and are submitting a letter to her today. She is included in a meeting with the committee established by the governor tomorrow. I believe this may be the first time in the history of the Island the business associations have truly come together to collaborate and present unified messaging. We understand there are issues unique to each town but there are also broader based issues that can and should be addressed Island wide."

Wouldn't to-go mixed drinks lead to open container violations? The last thing this island needs is more drinking and driving. Unless the customer is on foot, that bothers me.
ajay May 6, 2020 At 8:56 pm
The Island economy is based on drinking.
And driving.
All drinks from a bar are to go, be it in a cup or in your belly.
At least it won't be in your belly when you leave the bar.
Some will bring their drink home.
Some will not.
Some people drive drunk.
Some do not.
I do not expect that ratio to change.
I'm concerned about those that do. Allowing open containers won't help and was still, last I checked, a civil violation. But I agree, drinking at a bar and driving home is no better. I lost that argument long ago. Few care, especially around here.

I wonder how many businesses can survive with customers and revenues reduced by 50% or more? I just don't see people lining up six feet apart to wait to enter shops to purchase gifts or souvenirs, and who is going to want to sit in a crowded restaurant on a summer day with other people from off island? I know my personal plans and my family's plans have changed drastically, including avoiding unnecessary trips to anyplace where we come in close contact with anyone, masks or no masks. Realistically, that is how we must live until we have a vaccine, whether we like it or not.
I wonder how many businesses can survive with customers and revenues reduced by 20%.
My guess is very few, the realestate costs are so high.
Wesley Jenkinsen May 6, 2020 At 10:12 pm
This is ludicrous. Many of these businesses were working with thin margins at 100% capacity. Drop that to 50%….Why would they bother to open unless they're going to double their prices and hope that flies? Meanwhile, if browsing in a shop or going out for a casual meal involves deliberate planning that sucks all the spontaneity out of it and puts you on edge for staying safe, how is that going to affect foot traffic? I imagine it's going to crater it. Business owners are probably in an understandable state of shock and hoping they can salvage something with these bizarre countermeasures.

The current cataclysm might force us to change our economic/cultural model in very significant and (for some) painful ways.
carlmando May 7, 2020 At 8:25 am
Yesterday there were 208 deaths in Massachusetts, the 3rd highest daily total since this started. This is not something we can put a date on.
There were no deaths on the Island.
Why is it still shut down?
New News May 7, 2020 At 8:27 am
These businesses can open. But who's going to go into them without a vaccine available? I don't see a lot of customers wanting to risk illness by lining up at Murdicks for fudge, Backdoor for a donut, Black Dog for a T-shirt or Mad Martha for a cone. The island attracts a large number of at risk tourists — those over 50. They also tend to have plenty of $$$ for discretionary spending. It's doubtful many of them will be doing much consumerism this summer.


Fury and force heaved and shattered all that dared defy their presence. With exhaled breath, they battered the stalwart evergreens. Tree- tops spun. Boughs snapped and fell.
In the distance, a low rumble shot like a freight train through the land. The faint thundering of hooves grew louder. Beside me, a squirrel scurried for shelter. Overhead, a raven screamed a spell.
A veil hung, ominous and sheer, separating earth from the heavens. Deafening silence overtook the land. The faintest sound was the pumping of my heart. Even still, I was not afraid.
Leaves spun, suspended in air. Shades of red through orange, shapes of maple and oak teased my outstretched hand. Pinecones scattered and rolled across the mossy carpet beneath my feet.
From a clearing he appeared, lit beneath the hunter's moon. I watched ringed fingers grip and tug the reins. The stallion reared, muscles taut, its coat damp and shiny, head twitching side to side.
On the charge's back sat the royal one. A body clothed in leather, eyes the sparks of flint, a rugged face devoid of emotion.
It was then I glimpsed his truth. I saw one hand lift, watched as his fingers stroked the mane. The steed lowered its head and stood like stone.
The Storm King lifted from the saddle. Dark, dangerous, beautiful and mysterious he kneeled before me and bowed.
Wow! I could just see that image, clear as could be.Well done, Lynne.
I always enjoy your writing. Have you thought about writing a bit for the writing contest on my other site?
A very powerful scene and the ending only leaves me wanting to know more.
Thank you, Andrea. I'll have to sit down and craft a story. Ha.
A book is in order. Hurry up!!

The Cautionary Instruction: The tarnished image of the Secret Service
Jack Ready died on February 24, 2014 in Ft. Washington, Maryland. He was 86 years old. There was so much more to Ready's life. Ready was a special agent in the U.S. Secret Service, assigned to the presidential motorcade as it made its way through Dealey Plaza in Dallas on November 22, 1963.
Ready was assigned to the car following the presidential limousine positioned on the car's right-front running board. His position placed him opposite agent Clint Hill.
When the shots rang out, Hill rushed forward and—in a scene that would become iconic -- jumped onto the limousine in an effort to shield the president and the first lady. Ready held his position.
Hill would later say, "I know that it was devastating to Jack that he was unable to do anything."
It wasn't until 1902 that the Secret Service, created in 1865 to eradicate counterfeit currency, assumed official full-time responsibility for protecting the president. Before that, security for the president could be unbelievably lax.
The most astounding example was the scant protection afforded President Abraham Lincoln on the night he was assassinated. Only one man, an unreliable Washington cop named John Frederick Parker, was assigned to guard the president at Ford's Theatre on April 14, 1865.
The secret service has become more and more sophisticated and at times more heroic. On March 30, 1981, Secret Service agent Tim McCarthy stepped in front of a bullet, fired by John Hinckley Jr., intended for President Ronald Reagan.
"You never dream that you are going to be in this situation. You train intensely, there's a reason for doing it, and frankly I never thought it would happen to me," McCarthy said in an interview with CNN last year. "I'm just thankful that on that particular day I was able to do what I was trained to do."
Lately the news about the Secret Service has been anything but heroic—starting with a South American prostitution scandal last year that made world-wide headlines.
Thirteen agents were accused of partying with female foreign citizens at a hotel in the seaside resort of Cartagena, Colombia, where they were staying before President Barack Obama's arrival for a Latin American summit. Some of the women were prostitutes and the incident came to light after an agent had a fight in the hotel with a prostitute over payment.
Last month, two agents in Florida were involved in a traffic accident that reportedly involved alcohol. Then there was an incident involving an agent recently found drunk in a hotel in the Netherlands.
Not the stuff of Jack Ready, Clint Hill or Tim McCarthy.

BJP activists attack Arundhati Roy's house
A large group of BJP Mahila Morcha activists protesting Arundhati Roy's recent remarks on Kashmir broke into the compound of the writer's residence here on Sunday.
The mob assembled outside Ms. Roy's house in the high-security diplomatic enclave of Chanakyapuri around 11 a.m. and shouted slogans against her for more than half an hour. "Curiously, three news channel vans were stationed outside our house even before the protest began…the mob was abusive and broke through the front gate of the house," Ms. Roy's husband, Pradip Krishen, said.
Ms. Roy was not in the house at the time of the attack. In a statement, she said the mob numbered as many as a hundred persons. The activists broke a few flower pots kept outside the house and dispersed before the arrival of the police. They were prevented from entering the house by the guard and servants.
Police complaint
Mr. Krishen later lodged a complaint at the Chanakyapuri police station, following which police personnel were deployed outside the residence.
He said this was the second such attack at their Kautilya Marg residence since June 2010, when some men on motorbikes pelted stones and smashed some windows.
Though Mr. Krishen had no idea about the identity of the protesters, he suspects that they were supported by a section of the Sangh Parivar "who have already declared their intention to harm and harass Arundhati Roy."
The police have registered a case and are investigating.

Ajmer blast case: RSS leader's name figures in charge sheet
The charge sheet filed by the Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) of the Rajasthan police against five accused in the 2007 Ajmer dargah blast case on Friday has named senior Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh leader Indresh Kumar as having provided "guidance" for a conspiracy hatched by radical elements for planting bombs in several cities across the country.
Despite pointing the finger at Mr. Kumar for addressing a secret meeting in Jaipur on October 31, 2005, the charge sheet, filed in an Ajmer court, has not arraigned him as an accused. It only says the probe is still continuing, though the RSS has denied Mr. Kumar's involvement.
The ATS has not identified the RSS or the radical outfit Abhinav Bharat as being involved in the conspiracy for the blast, drawing flak from activist groups here. They have alleged that the investigating agencies are trying to "pre-empt" the conclusions about the Sangh Parivar's direct role in terrorism.
The 806-page charge sheet says the "office-bearers of some organisations" hatched a conspiracy to counter the terror attacks on Hindu religious places and prepared a list of targets where the blasts are to be carried out. These included the Ajmer dargah, the Malegaon mosque and the Makkah Masjid in Hyderabad.
Mr. Kumar, says the charge sheet, addressed a secret meeting of radical activists at a guesthouse in Jaipur, where he exhorted them to "get affiliated to various religious bodies for completing their mission." This will eliminate the scope for suspicion about their trips to different cities.
According to the charge sheet, the main accused in the Ajmer blast case, Sunil Joshi of Indore (who was later murdered); the prime accused in the Malegaon blast case, Pragnya Singh Thakur; and four others checked into the guesthouse under fake names for attending the meeting.
The roles of different persons were decided at the meeting, with the prime task of carrying out the blast at the time of 'Iftar' at Ahata-e-Noor in the dargah assigned to Sunil Joshi, alleges the charge sheet. Lokesh Sharma and Ramji Kalsangare were asked to collect weapons and explosives and carry out a recce.
The charge sheet says Devendra Gupta was asked to arrange for a mobile SIM card with fake identity papers, while Sandeep Dange and Sunil Joshi would have to arrange for money for the terror activities.
The ATS produced one of the accused, Chandrashekhar, in the court while two others — Devendra and Lokesh — are in Hyderabad for interrogation in connection with the Makkah Masjid blast. Sandeep and Ramji, who are reportedly absconding, were named as accused.
The prosecution appended to the charge sheet 213 support documents as well as a list of 133 witnesses. Chief Judicial Magistrate Jagendra Agrawal took cognisance against Devendra, Chandrashekhar and Lokesh under various Sections of the Indian Penal Code, the Explosives Act and the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act and posted the case to October 26.
