It's charming obvious from the off that the ever-horny Johny Cruz has a certain soft spot for Lloyd Goldwyn – or maybe a hard spot would be a more good description? – but it's not exactly difficult to appreciate why. Particularly when the 2 mates head inside after a poolside massage session and quickly engage in some clearly much-needed "getting to know you" time. Which in this instance involves enormous smooching and (in Cruz's case at least) whipping that monster knob of Goldwyn's out into the open. Indeed, let's not beat about the bush here, while the native Dominican is far from being an ugly chap, it's the oversized wang that this guy keeps stuffed inside his trunks that is by far his almost all noteworthy feature.

Time and time again, my rhinoplasty patients who see me in consultation request the same thing regarding their nose. They all desire a natural appearance to their nose.
The nose is a portion of the face that should not attract significant attention. It should go unnoticed on the face and not detract from other features of the face such as the eyes, lips, or hair.
As a rhinoplasty surgeon, I take great pride into trying to make every nose as natural as possible and provide an un-operated appearance. After their rhinoplasty, my patients are always saying how nobody notices a big change in their appearance. They state people are now noticing their new highlights, new lipstick, or commenting on the color of their eyes. Their nose now simply blends into their face. That is my goal with every cosmetic nose surgery.

Joylyn Conway: Miss World – Guyana 2019, University lecturer and STEM enthusiast empowering and inspiring girls in STEM
By: Bradley Downer
Twenty- four-year-old Joylyn Anita Conway, hailing from the East Berbice – Corentyne region is breaking the stereotypes in STEM by educating and empowering girls.
Black Panther Star Letitia Wright Returns to her Roots in Guyana
Elizabeth Marie Tallchief: A Native American Trailblazer Who Revolutionized Ballet
Joylyn Conway
Joylyn serves in various capacities, hoping that her life would inspire young girls to break barriers and take up male dominated careers.
She holds an associate and bachelor's Degree in Chemistry from the University of Guyana Tain Campus. She recently graduated from the University of Guyana, with a postgraduate degree in higher education, where she made the dean's list.
Conway was also the recipient of a Digital skills scholarship from the Avasant Foundation.
Joylyn is a lecturer at the New Amsterdam Technical Institute (NATI), where she teaches the Mathematics and Chemistry courses, as well as being a tutor at the University of Guyana.
In serving her community, Joylyn joined Rotaract, a non-governmental organization. There she served as the president for 2019-2020 and was recently elected as the community service director serving for the period 2022/23.
Passion for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM)
Joylyn is a fearless champion for girls in Science,Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). She is well known, for her work in STEM, as that was her platform during the Miss World Competition in 2019.
She served as Guyana's representative for the Miss World competition in 2019.
She founded the STEM Girls Glow Initiative, where she teaches science principles. With her initiative Conway also encourages and empowers girls to take up careers in male-dominated fields.
The STEM Girls Glow is Conway's brainchild and also was used as her Beauty With A Purpose (BWAP) project, its campaign transited for four weeks. It consisted of hosting three series of day camps within rural communities, outreach at school's deemed "low" and visits to orphanages.
Its main aim was to broaden the perceptions of "growth mindset" rather than a "fixed mindset" about who can contribute to STEM. This initiative showed a variety of STEM applications, which can be considered for personal and community growth, whilst highlighting positive female role models, who are either STEM enthusiasts or advocates for STEM education.
Joylyn said, "The STEM Girls Glow initiative is based on my life story – my successes and failures. From a girl wanting no association with anything STEM, because I was afraid of society's perception of me to a girl being nerdy, to now glowing in STEM, because of her life's journey and the impact of men and women that has crossed her path."
She also said, "girls you are beautiful, you are valuable even in safety boots, lab coats or hard hats."

Due to her passion for inclusivity within the fields of STEM, Joylyn hosted several STEM camps, and outreach programs, where she taught girls how to perform science experiments, and gave career and academic guidance. In 2019, she collaborated with former Developer Circle:Georgetown Lead & tech genius Samantha Sheoprashad, to host a STEM camp at the Berbice High School. The main focus was educating and empowering girls from the Berbice High School and the New Amsterdam Technical Institute, where they emphasised about technology and the opportunities currently available to Guyana and the wider Caribbean. They duo further explained about STEM and its importance to girls and women in our country and even the world at large.

Joylyn's STEM Girl Glow Initiative, focuses on lights (i.e role models, parents, teachers, mentors) guiding girls to enter into STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) fields of study and careers, and more so to stay the course. It also empowers them to discover their own light, and instils that the radiance of their natural and God-given light is sufficient to have them glow beyond the stereotypes.

She said, "the initiative aims to target girls that reside in rural communities and small towns of Guyana. These girls are intelligent – either by the books or skills and are oftentimes overlooked because of their geographical location, which would result in them lacking exposure and being denied various opportunities."
As Miss World- Guyana 2019, Joylyn is the young version of a girl who is glowing in a STEM-based area, where she'll work to implement various programs and sessions, which will show girls that they too can be smart and beautiful.
"It will also show girls that they too can determine their value and that STEM-based areas of study or work are not unfeminine," Conway told this publication.
As of recently, Joylyn has not been under the STEM Girl Glow Initiative but has still been making an impact through her profession as a lecturer – there she continues to shine her light on STEM Education.
In the near future, Joylyn will rejuvenate the STEM Girls Glow initiative and will continue to educate and empower girls.
Joylyn said, "I live to educate and empower girls in STEM and those who aspire to be. I truly believe that's my life's purpose."
Conway was quoted saying, "I believe all girls deserve a shot at knowing she can imagine, inspire and invent."
She further added, "within Guyana, when one compares the quality of education, availability of resources, level of financial stability and exposure, experienced among young people residing in rural and/or far flung communities or towns, to that of the large towns and city, a gap exists."
Conway noted that she was once a girl on the less fortunate side of that gap, however with the help of many mentors, she strived and is still striving to become the change she wishes to see.
She continued by saying, "I want young people, especially young women and girls, to be knowledgeable and experience the possibilities beyond the confines of their community, and hopefully return and make an impact, resulting in a positive ripple effect."
As Joylyn is striving to accomplish via her Initiative and profession, as such she was empowered to continue driving change.
Joylyn's greatest challenge has been to keep going, "despite the challenges that arise. I wouldn't say I've overcome it, since I have no control over challenges – rather when they arise I remind myself of why I'm doing it! The purpose I believe God has for me, the sacrifices of my giants/mentors, how far I've come, and most importantly the growth I saw and continue to see in some of our STEM Girls and that of my students."
Joylyn's mantra is "Aspire to Inspire before you expire," as it embodies everything she strives to do and become.
"You gatto wanna succeed as bad as you want to breathe, then you'll be successful", a quote coined by Eric Thomas keeps Conway motivated despite the challenges that may arise.
Joylyn is a 2022 recipient of the 25 influential Women Leaders Award by Nico Consulting and Cerulean Inc.
Conway is also an entrepreneur, she recently launched her business called 'Conway's Graphixe' where she works as a freelance graphic designer creating logos, e-certificates, flyers, menus, infographics, social media content, business cards, and much more.

La Táctica de desbordamiento, se ha utilizado en guerras como la Primera guerra mundial o la Primera guerra del Golfo Pérsico.

La táctica consiste en enviar una gran cantidad de soldados en masa (armados o no) contra las posiciones enemigas. Esta táctica es usualmente usada por países que disponen de una gran cantidad de habitantes aptos para la guerra y poseen poco armamento.

El envío de una gran cantidad de tropas a las posiciones enemigas sin pausa, logrará que estas colapsen, por lo tanto tarde o temprano se rendirán o huirán. Los soldados enviados serán tantos que desbordarán las líneas enemigas, de ahí su nombre. Cuanto más tropas se envíen mejor serán los resultados.

Posibles bajas
Obviamente, el envío de gran cantidad de hombres, traerá muy posiblemente una exagerada cantidad de bajas (dependiendo de qué tanto estén preparados los enemigos). Esta orden siempre fue cuestionada, debido a su crueldad. Por lo general son tomadas cuando se encuentra en un momento desesperado o en el que no se tiene mucho suministros o armamento.

Q: How to count row counts without running a SELECT COUNT(*) query? I'm trying to get the count of rows in a BigQuery table, using Google App Script. This is how I try to do so
BigQuery.Tables.get(projectId, datasetId, tableId).numRows

No matter what tableId I'm inserting, I'm always getting the value 265.
I'm at least sure that a single table has hundreds of millions of rows. So why am I getting 265 as a value for the numRows property ?!
And how can I get the total amount of rows for a BigQuery table without having to run a SELECT COUNT(*) FROM datasetId.tableId query so I don't consume much from my quota ?

A:
How can I get the total amount of rows for a BigQuery table without having to run a SELECT COUNT(*) FROM datasetId.tableId query so I don't consume much from my quota ?

1 - You might be surprised but SELECT COUNT(*) FROM datasetId.tableId does not incur any cost for you because BigQuery engine is smart enough to just get this stats from so called meta table. You can see the cost message for such type of query if you will open validator (to the right to buttons on BigQuery UI). The message will be - This query will process 0 B when run
2 - Moreover - you can query meta tables by your own as below example shows:
#standardSQL
SELECT table_id,
    DATE(TIMESTAMP_MILLIS(creation_time)) AS creation_date,
    DATE(TIMESTAMP_MILLIS(last_modified_time)) AS last_modified_date,
    row_count,
    size_bytes,
    CASE
        WHEN type = 1 THEN 'table'
        WHEN type = 2 THEN 'view'
        WHEN type = 3 THEN 'external'
        ELSE '?'
    END AS type,
    TIMESTAMP_MILLIS(creation_time) AS creation_time,
    TIMESTAMP_MILLIS(last_modified_time) AS last_modified_time,
    dataset_id,
    project_id
FROM `projectid.datasetid.__TABLES__`

Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Services have had a busy start to the weekend after crews were called to two barn fires in close proximity, just hours apart from each other.
On arrival, the crews found the barn in a field to be well alight. Fortunately, there were no adjacent buildings and it was deemed that no life was at risk.
The Fire Service carried out a thorough investigation and confirmed the fire was contained within the barn.
After assessing the incident it was decided only the appliance from Glastonbury was required to stay at the incident.
Crews maintained a watching brief over the fire, which involved one barn measuring approximately 10m x 6m containing 100 to 120 tonnes of hay, which was totally destroyed by fire.
The cause of the fire was believed to be deliberate.
A further revisit was carried out at 10am, where crews reported the whole structure had now completely collapsed.
The affected stock and building were 100 per cent damaged by smoke and fire. The building is still burning and a further revisit planned for 4.30pm.
Just a couple hours later, the crews were then called to a barn fire at Burtle Road in Westhay, Glastonbury.
At 2.20am, crews from Street, Bridgwater, Burnham-On-Sea and Wells were mobilised along with a water carrier from Bridgwater.
Upon arrival, the crews found a barn, measuring 50m x 30m and containing approximately 150 tonnes of straw, which was well alight.
The structure was 75 per cent damaged by fire, with crews using two 45mm jets, to dampen down the surrounding area.
The cause of this fire was also believed to be deliberate and Avon and Somerset Constabulary are now investigating.
The incident has been left in the hands of the farmer to monitor the burn.

Drug addict shoplifter gets let off despite two month stealing spree
His thieving was only a 'blip' say magistrates
Richard McAllister
Shoplifter got let off despite two month stealing spree (Image: Getty)
A heroin addict who went on a two month shoplifting spree was let off because his thieving was only a 'blip' a court heard.
Andrew Sewell pleaded guilty to four counts of theft when he appeared at Lincoln Magistrates Court on Thursday, July 4.
Despite his admission, Sewell was given only given a 12 month conditional discharge.
The dad-of-two, 33, from Eastgate, Sleaford, trousered items from the Lincolnshire Co-op, Asda and Aldi to sell for drugs between January 31 and March 17 this year.
This included two bottles of baby milk, worth £22, from the Lincolnshire Co-op in Sleaford - and items worth £82 from an Asda store in Grantham, both on January 31.
On February 20 he was charged with stealing a bottle of gin, worth £19.99, from Aldi in Sleaford.
He was also charged with sneaking away two steaks and two blocks of cheese worth £15 from the Lincolnshire Co-op, again in Sleaford, on March 17.
Thieves swipe cigarettes in string of store raids across county
Marie Stace, prosecuting, said: "He wanted to sell them on to buy drugs.
"In relation to Asda he tried to steal a trolley full of items.
"When he was in the Lincolnshire Co-op he put the steaks into his jacket and the cheese down his trousers.
"He said he took the baby milk because the person who sells the drugs had just had a baby."
Prisoner stages daring but stupid escape from police station yard
Abbie Edwards, defending, said: "Up until the beginning of this year he was working on his own as an electrician, he was married and living with two sons aged eight and 10 years old.
"But he started to have relationship difficulties with his partner.
"It broke down and he moved out of the family home, that's when he started to take heroin.
"His wife would not allow contact with the children when he was using heroin.
Sewell was given a conditional discharge (Image: Getty)
"He told me when he was younger he used heroin but managed to kick the habit on his own. Now he's had a relapse.
"He could not cope with seeing not his sons and his drug taking was spiralling out of control.
"He became unreliable so decided to stop working - his life was turned up side down."
She said Sewell has contacted drug charity Addaction for help, is now in stable accommodation and has a prescription for Methadone to get him off heroin.
He's started working two days a week again and sees his sons every other weekend.
When will he learn! Lincoln man Jonny Joseph Rooney appears in court AGAIN
She added: "I would ask you to be lenient with him and give him a conditional discharge because he's addressing the issues that caused the offending and has not offended since."
Norma Tutty, presiding magistrate, said: "We are very pleased to hear you've turned your life around, this was a blip."
She pointed out that if Sewell offended again in the next twelve months he would be tried again for the offences.
Sewell was order to pay £56.99 in compensation and a £21 victim surcharge.

Country's economy plays role in Internet file-sharing patterns
Peer-to-peer file sharing of movies, television shows, music, books and other files over the Internet has grown rapidly worldwide as an alternative approach for people to get the digital content they want—often illicitly. But, unlike the users of Amazon, Netflix and other commercial providers, little is known about users of peer-to-peer (P2P) systems because data is lacking.
Now, armed with an unprecedented amount of data on users of BitTorrent, a popular file-sharing system, a Northwestern University research team has discovered two interesting behavior patterns: most BitTorrent users are content specialists—sharing music but not movies, for example; and users in countries with similar economies tend to download similar types of content—those living in poorer countries such as Lithuania and Spain, for example, download primarily large files, such as movies.
"Looking into this world of Internet traffic, we see a close interaction between computing systems and our everyday lives," said Luís A. Nunes Amaral, a senior author of the study. "People in a given country display preferences for certain content—content that might not be readily available because of an authoritarian government or inferior communication infrastructure. This study can provide a great deal of insight into how things are working in a country."
Amaral, a professor of chemical and biological engineering in the McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science, and Fabián E. Bustamante, professor of electrical engineering and computer science, also at McCormick, co-led the interdisciplinary research team with colleagues from Universitat Rovira i Virgili in Spain.
Their study, published this week by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), reports BitTorrent users in countries with a small gross domestic product (GDP) per capita were more likely to share large files, such as high-definition movies, than users in countries with a large GDP per capita, where small files such as music were shared.
Also, more than 50 percent of users' downloaded content fell into their top two downloaded content types, putting them in the content specialist, not generalist, category.
"Our study serves as a window on society as a whole," Bustamante said. "It was very interesting to see the separations between users based purely on content. Individuals tend to interact only with others who are interested in the same content."
One goal of decentralized peer-to-peer file sharing is to make communication on the Internet more efficient. (In certain parts of the world, BitTorrent users are responsible for up to one-third of the total Internet traffic.) The BitTorrent protocol enables users to share large data files even when they don't have access to broadband connections, which often is the case in rural areas or less developed countries. BitTorrent breaks files into smaller pieces that can be shared quickly and easily from home computers over networks with lower bandwidth.
The researchers analyzed 10,000 anonymous BitTorrent users from around the world during a typical month using data reported by users of the BitTorrent plugin Ono. File content types shared by users included small files, music, TV shows, movies and books. (The type of content was easily determined based on file size.)
The Ono app, developed by Bustamante and his lab, allows users to improve the performance of BitTorrent while reducing the impact of their traffic on Internet network providers. Ono users can give informed consent for research use of their activity, providing a rich source of data on which new studies and projects can be built.
The title of the paper is "Impact of heterogeneity and socioeconomic factors on individual behavior in decentralized sharing ecosystems."

The Tale of Briar Stanley
By Marisa Remond Published Nov 14 2017
"I had no idea how much I'd miss sleep until I became a mother, and nothing prepares you for those early months with a newborn until you're in the thick of it. Days on end with everything and nothing to do all at the same time," a refreshingly honest account of first-time motherhood from interior decorator, lifestyle blogger and mum of two Briar Stanley, who not only has a swoon-worthy design-aesthetic, but also an honest and relatable account of some of the challenges motherhood can present…
Briar's popular blog and Instagram account, both titled Sunday Collector, are a collection of images, ideas and inspiration all taken from her own home and family life, with a hefty dose of Pinterest-worthy detail shots that pay homage to her alternate gig as a prop and lifestyle stylist (she's worked on films such as The Great Gatsby). Her recent home renovation, which was progressed in detail under the #sundaycollectorrenovation hashtag, shows her knack for sourcing products with the right mix of function and form (just take one look at her pink front door and gingham bathroom tiles for the right idea), all whilst being mum to cherubic five-year-old daughter Sunday (Sunny) and one-year-old son Rafferty. We're endlessly inspired by any mum that combines work, home and family with the level of style and grace that Briar displays, so read on for some seriously noteworthy tips on tackling everything from non-sleeping babies to how colour and good lighting can instantly transform a home.

What has motherhood taught you so far?
I have come to realise I'm a big believer in trusting my instinct as a mother. I'm also a believer in good and restful sleep, and without it, I realised I pretty much go crazy. I found motherhood the second time around so much easier – I'll touch on the reasons later. Motherhood has also made me realise that I'd love to live my life more like a five-year-old does. My daughter Sunday sees what is around her for what it is – there is no complexity to it. She doesn't worry about a to-do list or the time on the clock. Kids are masters at slowing down and living in the moment, and I find it disappointing I've lost that ability somewhere along the way. Like all mothers, my mind is often racing and I'm always thinking/worrying about the next turn of events. For example, right this second; my mind is drifting to remembering to book in Raff's chiropractic appointment for next week, then to defrosting the soup in the freezer for our dinner tonight. I assume this kind of rapid thinking slows down once your children get more independent, or does it get worse with the teenage years? I guess I still have a lot to learn when it comes to motherhood.
What has been the most challenging part of motherhood and how have you overcome any challenges?
Hands down I've never been challenged more than those first few months of Sunday's life back in 2012. I had a pretty traumatic labour (in summary – I was induced, she got stuck and then vacuumed, I then had a retained placenta and haemorrhaged). The aftermath of that difficult birth was a blur of being really anaemic and not sleeping with a screaming baby who just wanted to nurse around the clock. I remember feeling comforted by my mum who said to me one day 'Briar, I've been around a lot of babies over the years and this isn't what it's always like, you are honestly dealing with a tough baby here'. It wasn't until Sunday was four-months-old (in which time I'd had to go back into the hospital for a failed curette), that she was diagnosed by a Paediatrician with severe silent reflux. All the dots were joined, our poor bubba was in pain and nursing was the only thing that was soothing her. Medication certainly helped, but by that stage, we had developed a pretty shocking sleep routine so I called in the big guns (Jo Ryan from Babybliss) to help us get some sort of normality back into our lives. Slowly but surely, Sunday learnt how to enjoy sleep. Our bright little spark still challenges us on a daily basis, but her strong will is matched by an inquisitive and thoughtful nature – we couldn't have wished for a sweeter big sister for Rafferty, she's truly obsessed with her baby brother.
How do you combat any sleep deprivation?
I wish I knew the magic answer. It's a vicious cycle, as I know how great exercise makes me feel when I'm tired, but when I'm tired exercise is the last thing I want to be doing. I have developed a good habit with slow meditative breathing to help me get back to sleep at night if I've been woken by the kids, and I also find a warm bath before bed really relaxes me for a deeper sleep. Caffeine after lunch for me is the complete enemy, I'll literally be staring at the ceiling until 2am if I forget and drink something caffeinated. I've found magnesium tablets are also a really good sleeping aid, which was also amazing for nightly leg cramps during both pregnancies.
What's your approach to health and wellbeing?
I'm such an all or nothing kind of girl, which is a shame, as I know how good exercise is for my headspace. I also get obsessed with different forms of exercise…there was my Bikram yoga phase (until I was getting so dehydrated my eyes were blacking out at night – yup, that was fun), the Barre classes (also an amazing workout which I only stopped because I moved too far away from the studio). Lately, I've been getting really into Spin classes (I know, 1998 called and asked for their workout back), but I'd never tried a cycle class before this year. I LOVE the 45-minute classes, and these combined with some yoga and Pilates at a great new studio that has opened up near me is proving to be perfect. When it comes to my diet I have such a love affair with good food (I was raised by a family of cooks with a big focus placed on decadent meals), I can't imagine ever being on a restricted 'diet'. Everything and anything in moderation, except when I'm breastfeeding my babies… I'll eat you out of house and home.

What inspires your work and keeps you motivated?
I was raised by really driven parents (step-parents included), and I remember I couldn't wait to get my first job – having my own cash to burn on logo T-shirts from Sportsgirl like my big sisters wore was so alluring. My first job was at 13-years-old working in the kitchen of a local retirement village for the dinner shift – I ended up working there for five years throughout high school. I think it gave me some good foundations for a strong work ethic, a master hand with an industrial dishwasher and also a really sensitive rapport with the elderly, I adore sweet grandmas and could talk to them for hours.
Tell us how you got started as an interior decorator and some significant career highlights since you started your business. When did you create Sunday Collector and what do you love about running your blog as well as your interior design business?
After completing Year 12, I studied graphic design for three years at Enmore Design Centre. My first job was working for the advertising agency Singleton Ogilvy + Mather, followed by J. Walter Thompson. I was on set for a Harpic television commercial and had a light bulb moment when I saw a crew member (the art director) setting up the living room set. I'd never considered this as a job, but realised it was clearly my calling – I was enchanted by the concept of it. I was 24 at the time, soon quit my day job, and got a job waitressing at night. This freed me up to start working for next to nothing on film sets during the day. My graphic design skills helped me get a foot in the door to gain work on a mix of television commercials, followed by six months on a Channel 10 movie. My big break came about two years later when I landed a job as a buyer in the set decorating department of Baz Luhrmann's 'Australia'. The set decorator, Bev Dunn really took me under her wing and she became very much a mentor to me. The film industry in Sydney is a small one, so I was lucky to find a small crew that liked working together and moved around from film to film. I worked on ads in between longer film contracts, also assisting Megan Morton on editorial shoots and sometimes dabbled as an editorial stylist for Real Living magazine. I started my blog, Sunday Collector in mid-2010 as a way to document my travels a props buyer while decorating sets. My last big film was a senior buyer on The Great Gatsby, which was an incredible experience. I gave birth to Sunday a few months later, which is when my blog transitioned to have more of a focus on motherhood, also on residential interiors – which soon became my focus while Sunday was still young. Taking on my own projects allowed me to work my own hours (parttime work on a film rarely works out, unfortunately). Jump forward a few more years and we were renovating our first home, which I really enjoyed. Timings worked out while Raff was still young, I was working less and was able to spend time blogging the renovation process – you can see some of the journey on Instagram under the hashtag #sundaycollectorrenovation. We moved in after a whirlwind eight-week renovation, and still have some major plans for the front garden and old pool (the job list is never-ending, but I like to have a project). On the work front this year, I've worked on six television commercials in between working on residential projects, and I can't tell you how much I've enjoyed getting back to my film roots. I find the crossover really easy from residential interiors to a film set – at the end of the day, I get a brief that I have to resolve whether it be from a client living in a new home in Balgowlah or a director working on a 30-second commercial. It's safe to say I like to mix things up, and no two working days are the same for me.
Talk us through your morning routine?
I wake up earlier than I'd like, it's usually at about 5am when I hear Raff stir in his room across the hall. On a good morning, we fall back to sleep until 7am when my husband Mark returns from the gym. Our morning routine involves coffees from our kitchen machine (I can barely string a sentence together before my caffeine hit, and I'm lucky in that Mark makes a really good coffee). Sunday likes to have morning cuddles in bed. Raff has just started the cuddle routine too, which is adorable. It's then straight on to breakfast for us all which Mark also usually takes care of (basic Vegemite on toast or Weetabix). On the three pre-school days we have per week, Sunday's clothes and backpack are always placed out the night before for her to get dressed with no fuss. I'm a big fan of planning the night before, mine and Raff's outfit is usually always ready too, preventing a morning rush. Sunday's incentive to get ready quickly is that she gets around 10 minutes of TV before we have to leave the house if her teeth are brushed and her hair is done (a trick my mum used when I was growing up). It works every time.
What about nightly routine?
I have to pick up Sunday at 4:30pm three days a week from preschool, and on two of those days, I have an amazing nanny to help with Raff. So, those two days are busy days consisting of getting work done, usually half from home – half on the road. For the moment, the kids have an earlier dinner together, but I'm really conscious of making the change to a sit-down family affair every night, especially once Sunday starts school next year. It's something my Mum made happen every day when I was growing up, and I think a little nightly family 'meeting' to chat through the day is a really good foundation for healthy communication as the kids get older. When it comes to bedtime, baby Raff is down at 6.30pm every night with zero fuss (seriously, the dream baby literally waves and smiles at me when his head hits his little mattress). Sunday is like many five-year-olds – dragging out bedtime with extra books, trips to the toilet, urgent discussions on where unicorns live. I shouldn't complain, as she's usually fast asleep by 7:30pm and doesn't stir until 7:00am the next morning. Thinking about this answer makes me realise we are in a pretty good routine these days, I can promise you it used to be a lot more hectic than this!

What are some vivid memories of your childhood?
I was born in Balmain, the youngest of three girls. My parents divorced when I was around 12-months-old, so 'normal' for me was always having a separate life with my mum and a life with my dad on the weekends. My mum remarried when I was five to my wonderful step-dad and my dad remarried when I was three. My dad and my lovely step-mum were always on the North Shore, so my time growing up was split up across two different areas of Sydney. I had a predominately happy childhood, my dad and step-mum went on to have three more kids, giving me a total of four sisters and one brother –we're all independent people who love each other a lot. I can't imagine life without my big, mad family. My earliest memory would be sitting on a small blanket in the front yard of our house in Drummoyne, sucking on a big rainbow lollipop, with our family dog sitting next to me. I think I was pretty content doing my own thing as a kid. My mum tells me I would sit happily and play for hours with a hose and a bucket. Another strong memory is spending fun times with my siblings and two cousins at my nanny Enid's house. My dad's mum, Enid is still a huge influence on my life, at 92 she's the most wonderful person I've ever encountered, and I'm really lucky that my two kids can also have her in their lives.
What's your approach to interiors – how would you describe your style?
My style is always evolving, and my film background has made me appreciate many interior styles – I'd never pigeonhole myself with the one look as I couldn't expect every client to live with the same style I dictate. When I take on a new residential project, I have to take into consideration the architecture and era of the dwelling, who lives there and how those people like to live. I also often try to rejuvenate pieces that my client's already own. Something such as reframing an old artwork or photograph can transform it, and re-upholstering furniture and refreshing walls with paint can have that same effect for little cost.
What are your current favourite colours to work with?
I used to be all about sunny yellow, and tones of warm greys have always been my go-to. I also love pastels and you can never go wrong with a beautiful tone of blue. I believe Mother Nature is the true colour expert out there, so that is my greatest inspiration.

What about interior items - what décor items do you love to add to a room to make it look fresh?
Good lighting is so important; it's good to consider floor lamps and table lamps early on when decorating a space. Soft furnishings (that are also easy and somewhat inexpensive to update) play a really important role in finishing off a room, as do decorative accessories – everything from a few good coffee table books, a gorgeous candle, to a lovely timer box to hide remote controls. It's that final decorative layer I believe really brings a home together.
Tell us about your recent renovation...
Thanks to a very efficient builder and his team, our renovations on our original brick 1960's home went completely and utterly smoothly over only eight weeks. Being our first home I know how lucky I am to be able to say that, as I hear horror stories all the time. Demolition at the back was completed in a few short days, which was hugely rewarding, as we could immediately see the extra space we were creating in our living and dining area, not to mention the insane light we gained. The new kitchen had its final measure up a week later, which meant all the cabinetry went into the manufacturing stage straight away. Being the first home for our young family, we were really careful not to over-capitalise, so instead of changing the house configuration around too much when it came to the layout, we kept the footprint of the home and simply gave every finish major facelifts – especially the bathrooms and laundry. The existing four bedrooms stayed put – but with new lighting, flooring, skirting boards and window treatments. The magic of a new deck off the back of a house and a professional paint job inside and out never ceases to amaze me either! We moved in just after Christmas this year, and the feeling of accomplishment now we are actually living here is hard to describe, I would never have imagined we'd be in this position five years ago, it really does feel like a brand new little home for my family. We have been plodding away with jobs since moving in, such as trucking in what seemed like 300 tonnes of landfill to level the backyard and getting a very cute shed built. We've managed to create a thriving vegetable garden, as my Aunt is an amazing landscape designer, which has also been really handy when it has come to designing our backyard and choosing the tropical plants I envisioned. The next big project is to tackle the front yard and somehow incorporate a double carport as we bulldozed the old garage which didn't fit the width of a modern day car, but for now, I'm focused on updating our furniture in the living and dining areas.

How do you juggle being a mother with work?
I was reluctant to get back to work so quickly when Raff was young but there was an on-going residential project that needed to carry on. Without either sets of the grandparents living in Sydney, I bit the bullet and decided to go to the expense of finding a nanny for the kids two days a week. We've been lucky enough to have a nanny named Pam since Raff was four-months-old. She's a grandma herself and pretty much a baby whisperer. Pam is not only a genuinely lovely person, she also enthusiastically folds the neatest pile of washing I've ever seen. Because folding washing is one of my most loathed aspects of being an adult. Another tip is that we rely on a handy fresh fruit and veggie box delivered from Wild Greens every second week (I did the maths and it's more economical than a shop at Woolies or Coles for the same things), and meals delivered from Dinner Ladies are also great, especially if I'm having a busy time with work – dishes like the delicious lentil curries are such a huge help mid-week when I'm too tired to cook. Other than that, it's an absolute juggle – there is no magic answer I'm afraid.
What makes you feel stressed?
Like most people, I'm more stressed if I've not had enough sleep, and it's silly/trivial things that will get my blood pressure rising – like not finding a hairbrush to do Sunday's hair in the morning. On a more serious level, I've never felt stress like I have at times over the past six months. Losing my father last December to brain cancer honestly nearly broke me, along with many of my family members. I basically wasn't prepared for the devastating and final feeling of loss, of him just never being 'there' again. I think the biggest problem was that I had convinced myself I would be at peace with it when the cancer did eventually beat him, but I was wrong. I'm only now feeling like I'm coming out of the fog, sleeping better and I think weaning Raff has been a positive turnaround for my headspace too, as my hormones have levelled out and I'm feeling more at peace with losing my dad, if that's even possible.
Top three business lessons for mothers looking to launch an interior business…
Do the hard yards before starting up a new business, work experience in the field is so important – put your self out there even if it's making coffee and teas in an office, become a professional observer and consider it as a form of study, as you learn so much on the job.
If you're working from home, dress for work – I'm always more motivated when I'm at my desk if I'm 'work ready'.
I don't believe anyone that says they can get work done while their kids are around. From my experience, I can get a good window during naptime when I charge up the laptop, but I find I get through most of the work when I'm away from the children. I'm lucky that Sunday loves going off to preschool, and Raff is really happy to spend the day with Pam. I also make the most of the nighttime hours once the kids are going to bed – luckily I'm not much of a TV watcher so happily use this time for work and catching up on emails.

What are your top home organisation tips?
I'm a big fan of the cull and will often fill a garbage bag to donate to charity, as I don't like living with too much clutter. Sunday has reached the age where I'm not allowed to get rid of anything (she'll honestly try and make art out of a ball of fluff that she finds on the carpet), so her room is often given a 'cleanse' while she's at preschool, and she's none the wiser. I'm also one of those people that simply clean up as I go throughout the day, so there is never really a catastrophic area of the house to tidy. I also always store the kids' toys in an organised fashion, so at the end of the day when their rooms are a bit of a pigsty it's a really quick job to pack everything away. I also can't give up my little luxury of paying for a cleaner once a fortnight, I figure I don't buy things like new shoes often – so a cleaner is my indulgence, and a sparkling clean floor after a mop makes me happy. Sounds lame, but it's true!
Do you spend a lot of time on social media?
I used to spend a lot more time than I do now. I have always loved Instagram but am guilty of scrolling as a habit and not really taking much in unless something really catches my eye. Kind of an unhealthy habit I guess, but I have been loving Instagram stories purely for the entertainment factor of catching up on my new girl crushes; US business owner Jen Gotch and actress Busy Phillips.

12 January 2011 in Legal Police, Opinion Comment, South America, Violence Against Women
Marisela Escobedo Ortiz, women's human rights defender of Ciudad Juarez, was murdered while peacefully demanding the compliance of the sentence against the assassin of her daughter, Rubi Marisol Frayre Escobedo.
AWID joins hundreds of women's organizations in denouncing the killing of women human rights defender Marisela Escobedo Ortiz and demanding justice and accountability from the Mexican Government for this act of violence, as well as uncountable others passed unnoticed und unpunished in the face of law.
"On 16 December 2010, a group of men arrived at the main square in the Chihuahua city, and approached Marisela Escobedo Ortiz, who was holding a peaceful demonstration for 8 days to demand that the authorities take action to detain her daughter Rubi's assassin. She ran seeking refuge in the Government Palace; at its doors, one of the men shot her in the head, killing her.
The cause of this murder is the culture of discrimination and violence against women that the Mexican State has maintained in Ciudad Juarez and in Chihuahua over the past two decades. In the past 27 months, Marisela's main activity was to demand justice for her daughter's murder, denouncing the authorities as accomplices and negligent of femicide, and demanding that the justice system effectively guarantee women's right to a life free of violence.
On 28 August 2008, faced with her daughter Rubi's murder, Marisela began the process to denounce the murder and to demand that the authorities act in accordance with the law, as there were clear suspicions about the identity of the assassin.
Rubi Marisol, 19 years of age, was killed in Ciudad Juarez by her partner, Sergio Rafael Barraza, with whom she had a daughter. Barraza Bocanegra was abussive from the beginning of the relationship, increasing the violence until he killed her, burned her body and threw her in a clandestine trash dump and pig cemetery. He then fled to the state of Zacatecas, trusting that after some time his crime would remain unpunished, as are hundreds of other murders of women in Ciudad Juarez. His crime was not investigated, he was later absolved in the courts, and finally, since he had fled, was found guilty in appeals.
Given the grave irregularities and omissions on the part of the authorities involved in the ministerial investigations, Marisela had the tenacity to look for proof about the events, always within the limits of the law. Sergio Rafael Barraza, personally and in her presence, identified the exact place where he had dumped his victim, confessed to his crime, and asked for forgiveness in a hearing during the oral trial that took place. However, on 29 April 2010, the judges Catalina Ochoa Contreras, Netzahualcoyotl Zuñiga Vazquez and Rafael Baudib Jurado decided to acquit him.
The event shocked Ciudad Juarez and Chihuahua. The victims' families and the local organizations, alongside national and international spaces and organizations, have acted since 1993 to document femicide, denouncing the negligence and complicity of the authorities, constantly presenting proposals and actions for the State institutions to act in accordance with their obligations with the citizens. Just a few months earlier, there was an important accomplishment towards this aim. In December 2009, the Inter-American Human Rights Court condemned Mexico for the disappearances, sexual violence, and murders of women in Ciudad Juarez. The Mexican State had argued in the Inter-American trial that the new justice system in Chihuahua did not repeat the impunity of prior decades. The assassination of Rubi and the impunity despite the weight of the evidence, demonstrates that the situation in Ciudad Juarez and Chihuahua was worse than in any previous year.
During 2010, every 24 hours a woman has been killed in the state of Chihuahua for reasons primarily to do with the fact that she is a woman. An unprecedented fact is that the vast majority of the cases are in total impunity.
The Inter-American Court also recognized that there is systematic harassment and aggression against families and defenders who demand justice for these cases, and it condemned Mexico for not guaranteeing their protection, allowing crimes to go unpunished and not compensating for damages.
Marisela Escobedo Ortiz always sought justice in a peaceful manner. She used her own resources, economic and human, to conduct the work that the authorities did not do. She conducted all of the investigations to learn the truth and to find her daughter's murderer. She walked from Ciudad Juarez to Chihuahua to demand that the state Governor, at that time Jose Reyes Baeza, order the necessary actions to detain the assassin. After Sergio Rafael Barraza was acquitted, she initiated the appeal and managed to get the assassin condemned. However, since he was not held in custody, he fled again and began to threaten Marisela. In July of this year, she moved to the Alameda Central in Mexico City to demand that President Felipe de Jesus Calderon Hinojosa, seek out and arrest the murderer. In September she went to the National Feminist Gathering held in Zacatecas to call on the authorities to search for Barraza, because there were indications that he was in that state. In November of this year, she testified before the International Mission for Women's Access to Justice.
She always affirmed that as long as Rubi's assassin, and all assassins of women, remain free, they would continue to commit these crimes. Her consciousness of the need to take measures to ensure that these acts would not repeat themselves led to the creation of an Investigation Commission for Rubi's case in the state of Chihuahua, with the goal of identifying the errors committed in the process and take action within the justice system to ensure that this impunity not be repeated. However, all of this was paralyzed during the change in state and municipal governments. On 16 December, Marisela was protesting because the new governor, Cesar Duare Jaquez, had not taken any action regarding her daughter – and other women who were disappeared and murdered – but he had mobilized the entire justice apparatus in support of the families of high-level State officials.
The organizations signing this statement will give continuity to Marisela's voice and demands:
* In her memory, we say no more simulation by the authorities.
* We demand an end to femicide and impunity.
* We demand compliance with all provisions of the "Campo Algodonero" Judgment, in which the Inter-American Court specifies actions to prevent, investigate and punish appropriately the disappearances, sexual violence and killings against women, and to investigate and punish those who harass and attack the families and organizations who seek justice for those acts.
* Following the Inter-American Court, we demand guarantees for the integrity and security of all the families of victims of disappearances, sexual violence and killings of women, meaning, of femicide. This involves providing comprehensive care, researching the facts and proper compensation for damages, in an urgent manner for the Frayre Escobar family.
* Given the very serious increase in violence against women human rights defenders, we hold the Mexican government responsible for any act against them, because so far the State has not investigated or taken action to ensure their basic life and integrity. This includes the police forces of the three spheres of government – federal, state and municipal – that have occupied Ciudad Juárez and Chihuahua since 2008, without this resulting in improved safety for women.
* We denounce that the current debate to approve the Chihuahua state budget resources has not incorporated resources to implement the state law for the right of women to a life free of violence, or to comply with the Campo Algodonero Judgment.
Marisela Escobedo Ortiz was a human rights defender who, after her daughter's murder, mobilized people and organizations, institutions and powers to put a stop to femicide, always by strengthening the institutions of justice, citizen action, and democracy. Her assassination reveals the criminal lack of protection that the Mexican State maintains against defenders and its lack of effective will to guarantee women a life free of violence.

I have a boot-able USB with windows 7, but I cant boot from it. My question is, can I uninstall ubuntu without re-formatting the hard-drive manually?

A: You dont't have to re-formatting your hard-drive. If you have unpacking the img file of Windows 7 on a USB drive you can decide to delete the whole hard-drive by installing windows 7.
Make sure you have change the boot order and your bios have aktivated removable divise.
The other methode is to aktivate the boot menu while the computer is booting.

Why buy Actinolite cat's eye gemstones?
Actinolite cat's eye is a rare chatoyant gemstone variety of the mineral actinolite. It is often misleadingly referred to as "cat's eye jade" owing to its close association with nephrite jade, one of two forms of pure forms. Actinolite and nephrite belong to the same series of minerals ranging from iron-rich tremolite to magnesium-rich ferro-actinolite amphiboles.
Actinolite cat's eye gems are typically translucent and occur with jade-like green to yellowish color.
Actinolite cat's eye gemstones are frequently worn in gemstone cabochon rings, and they are very well suited for all other types of gemstone jewelry, including gemstone earrings, pins, brooches, necklaces and gemstone pendants. Actinolite is often sought after for its metaphysical and therapeutic abilities, as it is believed to be excellent for both physical and spiritual healing.

What is MOMENTA ?
MOMENTA Biennale de l'image is a contemporary art dissemination and mediation platform that operates year-round with ongoing activities. The organization stands out for the position it takes and the questions it asks on the place of the image in today's societies. Among MOMENTA's wide range of activities, the biennial is a flagship event presented in partnership with exhibition partners from all over the world. Based in Tiohtià:ke/Mooniyang/Montreal, MOMENTA has been organizing exhibitions, digital projects, public programs, creative workshops, and collaborations of all kinds for over 30 years.

MOMENTA's activities take place on stolen, unceded territories of the Kanien'kehá:ka Nation. These lands and waterways have long served as a meeting site for many Nations, including the Kanien'kehá:ka (Mohawk) of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Huron/Wendat, the Abenaki, and the Anishinaabeg (Algonquin). Even today, these lands are the home of Indigenous peoples from across the globe who gather here in beauty. Tiohtià:ke/Mooniyang/Montreal has a deep colonial history that persists today in many ways; we stand in solidarity with the Indigenous nations that have fought to protect their sovereignty and the land over the years. It is the biennial's privilege to be able to work and present in this territory. We do our best to dismantle colonial harm wherever possible.
Although we recognize that simply acknowledging the land and waterways that have been stewarded by Indigenous nations since time immemorial is not in itself enough, we strive to ensure ongoing accountability for work done on these lands and to nurture and uphold anti-colonial frameworks. We are grateful to the guardians of the land, whose stewardship allows these relationships to continue; to the numerous Indigenous artists with whom the organization had conversations as its activities were formulated; and to the people who generously share their works with the team and with the public.
This territorial acknowledgment is adapted from the acknowledgment developed by the curators of the 2021 edition of the biennial, Stefanie Hessler, Camille Georgeson-Usher, and Himali Singh Soin. We thank them for their engagement and attention.
MOMENTA's mission is to have a sensitive and meaningful impact on the world around us by means of images. We bring this intention to life through unifying and structuring initiatives for art dissemination and education, which foster reflection on and accessibility to contemporary art. The organization offers Quebec, Canadian, and international audiences engaging and inclusive activities that highlight Canada's cultural innovation and provides an exceptional showcase for artists from the four corners of the globe.
Founded in 1989 as Le Mois de la Photo à Montréal, the organization was renamed MOMENTA Biennale de l'image for its 15th edition, in 2017. The first Mois de la Photo à Montréal was organized by VOX, centre de l'image contemporaine in 1989 to celebrate the 150th anniversary of photography. Until 2002, VOX was responsible for holding the event. In September 2002, it became an autonomous corporation. The change in administration was followed by the adoption of a new artistic direction concept. For every biennial, a curator is invited to propose a contemporary theme around which a series of exhibitions, a catalogue, and many public activities are produced. Between 20 and 40 artists from Canada and abroad are selected and their works are presented in 15 partner venues throughout the city.
From Photography to Image-based Practices
The plural of the Latin word momentum, the name MOMENTA was chosen as a nod to the "decisive moment," a key notion of Henri Cartier-Bresson's, and to photography, which was the organization's founding medium. It underlines the fact that the event, once centred essentially on the field of photography, now encompasses all image-based practices, in an era when images are being produced in different media and in various places
MOMENTA: A Dissemination and Mediation Platform
With a desire to bring contemporary art to Quebec, Canada, and the rest of the world, MOMENTA is extending its activities beyond the years during which it features a particular theme to have a year-round presence. In addition to the biennial program, MOMENTA designs and produces special projects, public programs, exhibitions, and educational activities in partnership with local, national, and international organizations and exhibition venues. The organization is now positioning itself as a platform for dissemination of artists' work and for mediation with publics by offering ongoing activities.
Over the last 10 editions, the biennial has presented more than 550 artists and 2,450 artworks to a total audience of 2 million. More than 100 partners join the biennial for each edition, and almost 200 cultural stakeholders participate in it.

The Stamatiadis Mineralogy and Paleontology Museum is the first of its kind, both in Rhodes and within the greater area of the Dodecanese. The absence of a museum such as this has in the past been repeatedly reproached to this part Greece, all the more since our country has made a reputation for the exceptional wealth of its soil. It is indeed to be wondered why up to the day of the launching of the Stamatiadis Museum initiative, the island of Rhodes – itself a place of renowned mineralogical and paleontological interest – had not had a museum of this nature. As is often the case, however eager, words rarely translated into practice.
One of the main ideas governing the launching and hosting of this Museum has been the desire to extend the mineralogical and paleontological experience way beyond the strict field of acquaintance with specific areas traditionally yielding minerals as well as harboring fossils. This has from the very beginning been meant to be a learning experience aimed at whoever student or erudite, whether an experienced researcher or a greenhorn collector or even at that simple visitor with a wish to have a closer look and marvel at the creations of mother Nature, without having to travel the world to find them. Pupils will also find here valuable information and relevant documentation for their school projects and papers.
The Museum's doors will be open to those wishing to come – however often – to drink at the fountain of knowledge. A hall within the premises has been arranged to host film projections; featuring a big screen and appropriately equipped with all relevant infrastructure, this is where visitors will come to watch films on a vast array of topics relevant to nature and the environment.
A visit to the Stamatiadis Mineralogy and Paleontology Museum may indeed become an integral part of the teaching experience of whatever subject matters relevant to Geology, as student will have a first-hand impression of what they are taught.

Reverend Thomas Atkinson (1807-1881) was born on August 06, 1807 in Virginia. He attended Yale University and Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, before becoming an ordained Episcopal priest in 1837. He served at churches in Virginia and Maryland, incuding at St. Paul's Church in Norfolk and Lynchurbug, Virginia, before he was elected the third Bishop of North Carolina in 1853. As bishop, he founded the Ravenscroft Theology Training School in Asheville, North Carolina and a boys church school in Raleigh. After the Civil War, he opened an Episcopal school for newly freed Black students near Raleigh that would go on to become St. Augustine's College, a historically Black and Christian college still in existence today. Rev. Atkinson died on January 4, 1881 and was buried at St. James Church in Wilmington, North Carolina.
Rev. Atkinson married Josepha Gwynn Wilder Atkinson (1807-1887) in 1828. They had three children, John Wilder "J.W." Atkinson (1830-1910), Robert Atkinson (1831-1911), and Mary Mayo Atkinson Buel (182?-1891). Mary married Reverend David Hillhouse Buel (1917-1893), who was also an Episocpal priest. Rev. Buel was born in Tory, NY on May 26, 1817. He went to Bristol College in Pennsylvania and was ordained an Episcopal priest in 1843. He worked in churches throughout the Northeast and Maryland, including Cumberland, where his church served as a stop on the Underground Railroad. In 1872, he joined Atkinson's Ravenscroft School as principal and became head of the Ravenscroft Missions in Asheville. He died in Maryland on January 13, 1893 and is buried in Oakwood Cemetery in Troy, New York.
J.W. Atkinson was born in Virginia in 1830 and worked as a tobacco merchant in Richmond before serving as a colonel during the Civil War. After the war, he moved to Wilmington and married Elizabeth Bland Fulton Mayo Atkinson (1832-1880), with whom he had daughter Loulie Atkinson Murchison (1860-1922). J.W. died in 1910 and is buried at Oakdale Cemetery in Wilmington. Loulie married Joel Williams "J.W." Murchison of Wilmington in 1880, joining the Atkinson and Murchison families. They had several children, notably David Reid "D.R." Murchison (1891-1983) and John Reid "J.R." Murchison (1890-1945). Loulie died in Wilmington in 1922, followed by Joel W. a few years later in 1926. Both are buried at Oakdale Cemetery.
Joel W.'s father, also John Reid Murchison (1827-1864), was brother to the elder David Reid Murchison (1837-1882), a captain in the Civil War. David married Lucy Wooster Wright (1850-1913) in 1872 and they had one daughter together, Lucille Wright Murchison Marvin (1880-1968). In 1889, Lucy married Clayton Giles (1844-1917) after the death of David in 1882. Clayton had previously been married to Lucy's cousin, Mary Augustus Wright, who died from typhoid fever in 1883.
In 1873, Clayton Giles and Joel W. Murchison became business partners in their hardware and agricultural tool company, Giles and Murchison, in Wilmington. When their partnership later dissolved, Joel W. continued the hardware business alone as J. W. Murchison and Co, which was one of the biggest in North Carolina at the time. It was Murchison and his hardware store that supplied most of the guns to white citizens in the weeks and days prior to the Wilmington Coup of 1898.

US Supreme Court to Hear AZ Immigration Law
By Associated Press • Feb 3, 2012
PHOENIX (AP) _ The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments on
Arizona's immigration enforcement law on April 25, in the last such
hearing of the high court's current term.
The court will review a federal appeals court decision that
upheld a judge's ruling blocking key provisions of the Arizona law.
One of those provisions requires that police, while enforcing
other laws, question a person's immigration status if officers have
reasonable suspicion the person is in the country illegally.
White House Immigration Proposal Could Help Thousands
This is what Enrique thought when he first noticed Ramona, a pretty brunette from Mexico, "It was as if I had seen the most beautiful girl in the whole world standing in front of me, and from then on we've been together.
"Its been about 10 years," says Ramona. "And it still feels like the first day."
Homeland Security Strips Arpaio of Immigration Powers
By Michel Marizco • Dec 16, 2011

The Department of Justice's report alleging civil rights abuses in the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office had immediate repercussions. Janet Napolitano, the Secretary of Homeland Security, announced that her department had severed its cooperative agreements with the sheriff's office. The decision strips Sheriff Joe Arpaio of the ability to enforce federal immigration laws.
Arizona's Attorney General says state has good case
By Dennis Lambert • Dec 12, 2011
Attorney General Tom Horne says he believes Arizona has a good case when the U.S Supreme Court hears arguments in late April, on the constitutionality of Arizona's immigration law, known as 1070.
The Supreme Court hearing comes at the request of Arizona Governor Jan Brewer. It follows a decision by the 9thU-S Circuit Court of Appeals upholding an injunction against key sections of the law. Among those sections is a requirement that police, while enforcing other laws, check the immigration status of anyone they suspect is in the country illegally.
US Supreme Court to decide Arizona's immigration law
By Howard Fischer • Dec 12, 2011
The U.S. Supreme Court this morning agreed to consider whether an injunction against the state's tough immigration law is illegal.
And, in doing so, they are likely to rule on just how far states can go in enacting their own laws in the area.
Without comment the justices accepted the petition by Gov. Jan Brewer to review the action of U.S. District Court Judge Susan Bolton in blocking the state from enforcing key provisions of SB 1070. The court gave no reason.
