Making political hay
Moon Jae-in is a prominent and well-known opposition leader. He served as chief secretary for former President Roh Moo-hyun and ran as the presidential candidate for the opposition after winning a majority vote in a party primary in 2012. He is dubbed a formidable contender to head the New Politics Alliance for Democracy, which is now under acting leadership, and is also a potential contestant for the presidency once again. He joined a hunger strike to support relatives of the students who died in the sinking of the Sewol ferry. The relatives have been on a hunger strike for more than a month in a tent in downtown Seoul demanding a thorough investigation that would include civilian and victim representatives. Moon sided with the family representatives who refused to accept the proposal for the Sewol special law agreed to by the ruling and main opposition parties.
In our view, his behavior is inept.
A former presidential candidate of the main opposition party is more than a mere lawmaker. In the last presidential election, Moon won 48 percent of the votes. He must have a broader perspective on social issues and the government. While sympathizing with the sufferings and questions of relatives of the Sewol victims, he should approach the issue in a national context. What the families demand - that the rights to investigate and indict be given to a group of civilians - is not possible within the country's laws. But Moon refused the reasonable path from the beginning. He criticized it as "shameful and embarrassing." He lamented that "the country's dignity and confidence in the government have been sunk." A political leader should have more than words of criticism at a time when the country is in crisis.
Al Gore lost the presidency to George W. Bush in the 2000 election due to the recounting scandal in Florida. But in times of crisis, he showed no grudge. When Hurricane Katrina struck the American southeast in August 2005, Gore, a mere civilian, arranged and partially paid for an airlift evacuation of 270 patients from a hospital in New Orleans. Gore didn't brag of his actions.
Other politicians from the opposition have acted like political novices. But Moon had a chance to act like a responsible leader. He could have offered to help his colleague Park Young-sun, the NPAD floor leader who is acting leader of the party, by counseling the families while she negotiated with the ruling party. Then he could have come across as a leader who thinks of the country and not a mere opponent to the government - or an opportunist at a time of tragedy.

That afternoon, when he had slept off his fatigue; had shaved, and washed, and dressed, and freshened himself from top to toe; when he had dined, comforted himself with a pipe, an extra Toby, a nap in the great arm-chair, and a quiet chat with Mrs Varden on everything that had happened, was happening, or about to happen, within the sphere of their domestic concern; the locksmith sat himself down at the tea-table in the little back-parlour: the rosiest, cosiest, merriest, heartiest, best-contented old buck, in Great Britain or out of it.
There he sat, with his beaming eye on Mrs V., and his shining face suffused with gladness, and his capacious waistcoat smiling in every wrinkle, and his jovial humour peeping from under the table in the very plumpness of his legs; a sight to turn the vinegar of misanthropy into purest milk of human kindness. There he sat, watching his wife as she decorated the room with flowers for the greater honour of Dolly and Joseph Willet, who had gone out walking, and for whom the tea-kettle had been singing gaily on the hob full twenty minutes, chirping as never kettle chirped before; for whom the best service of real undoubted china, patterned with divers round-faced mandarins holding up broad umbrellas, was now displayed in all its glory; to tempt whose appetites a clear, transparent, juicy ham, garnished with cool green lettuce-leaves and fragrant cucumber, reposed upon a shady table, covered with a snow-white cloth; for whose delight, preserves and jams, crisp cakes and other pastry, short to eat, with cunning twists, and cottage loaves, and rolls of bread both white and brown, were all set forth in rich profusion; in whose youth Mrs V. herself had grown quite young, and stood there in a gown of red and white: symmetrical in figure, buxom in bodice, ruddy in cheek and lip, faultless in ankle, laughing in face and mood, in all respects delicious to behold--there sat the locksmith among all and every these delights, the sun that shone upon them all: the centre of the system: the source of light, heat, life, and frank enjoyment in the bright household world.
And when had Dolly ever been the Dolly of that afternoon? To see how she came in, arm-in-arm with Joe; and how she made an effort not to blush or seem at all confused; and how she made believe she didn't care to sit on his side of the table; and how she coaxed the locksmith in a whisper not to joke; and how her colour came and went in a little restless flutter of happiness, which made her do everything wrong, and yet so charmingly wrong that it was better than right!--why, the locksmith could have looked on at this (as he mentioned to Mrs Varden when they retired for the night) for four- and-twenty hours at a stretch, and never wished it done.
The recollections, too, with which they made merry over that long protracted tea! The glee with which the locksmith asked Joe if he remembered that stormy night at the Maypole when he first asked after Dolly--the laugh they all had, about that night when she was going out to the party in the sedan-chair--the unmerciful manner in which they rallied Mrs Varden about putting those flowers outside that very window--the difficulty Mrs Varden found in joining the laugh against herself, at first, and the extraordinary perception she had of the joke when she overcame it--the confidential statements of Joe concerning the precise day and hour when he was first conscious of being fond of Dolly, and Dolly's blushing admissions, half volunteered and half extorted, as to the time from which she dated the discovery that she 'didn't mind' Joe--here was an exhaustless fund of mirth and conversation.
Then, there was a great deal to be said regarding Mrs Varden's doubts, and motherly alarms, and shrewd suspicions; and it appeared that from Mrs Varden's penetration and extreme sagacity nothing had ever been hidden. She had known it all along. She had seen it from the first. She had always predicted it. She had been aware of it before the principals. She had said within herself (for she remembered the exact words) 'that young Willet is certainly looking after our Dolly, and I must look after HIM.' Accordingly, she had looked after him, and had observed many little circumstances (all of which she named) so exceedingly minute that nobody else could make anything out of them even now; and had, it seemed from first to last, displayed the most unbounded tact and most consummate generalship.
Of course the night when Joe WOULD ride homeward by the side of the chaise, and when Mrs Varden WOULD insist upon his going back again, was not forgotten--nor the night when Dolly fainted on his name being mentioned--nor the times upon times when Mrs Varden, ever watchful and prudent, had found her pining in her own chamber. In short, nothing was forgotten; and everything by some means or other brought them back to the conclusion, that that was the happiest hour in all their lives; consequently, that everything must have occurred for the best, and nothing could be suggested which would have made it better.
While they were in the full glow of such discourse as this, there came a startling knock at the door, opening from the street into the workshop, which had been kept closed all day that the house might be more quiet. Joe, as in duty bound, would hear of nobody but himself going to open it; and accordingly left the room for that purpose.
It would have been odd enough, certainly, if Joe had forgotten the way to this door; and even if he had, as it was a pretty large one and stood straight before him, he could not easily have missed it. But Dolly, perhaps because she was in the flutter of spirits before mentioned, or perhaps because she thought he would not be able to open it with his one arm--she could have had no other reason-- hurried out after him; and they stopped so long in the passage--no doubt owing to Joe's entreaties that she would not expose herself to the draught of July air which must infallibly come rushing in on this same door being opened--that the knock was repeated, in a yet more startling manner than before.
Upon that, Dolly went running back into the parlour, all dimples and blushes; and Joe opened it with a mighty noise, and other superfluous demonstrations of being in a violent hurry.
'Who's coming in? what's coming in?' Mrs Varden, as much at a loss as her husband, could only shake her head in answer to his inquiring look: so, the locksmith wheeled his chair round to command a better view of the room-door, and stared at it with his eyes wide open, and a mingled expression of curiosity and wonder shining in his jolly face.
The young damsel whom he named no sooner heard these words, than deserting a small boy and a very large box by which she was accompanied, and advancing with such precipitation that her bonnet flew off her head, burst into the room, clasped her hands (in which she held a pair of pattens, one in each), raised her eyes devotedly to the ceiling, and shed a flood of tears.
The locksmith looked from his wife to Dolly, and from Dolly to Joe, and from Joe to Miggs, with his eyebrows still elevated and his mouth still open. When his eyes got back to Miggs, they rested on her; fascinated.
To none of these interrogatories, whereof every one was more pathetically delivered than the last, did Mrs Varden answer one word: but Miggs, not at all abashed by this circumstance, turned to the small boy in attendance--her eldest nephew--son of her own married sister--born in Golden Lion Court, number twenty-sivin, and bred in the very shadow of the second bell-handle on the right- hand door-post--and with a plentiful use of her pocket- handkerchief, addressed herself to him: requesting that on his return home he would console his parents for the loss of her, his aunt, by delivering to them a faithful statement of his having left her in the bosom of that family, with which, as his aforesaid parents well knew, her best affections were incorporated; that he would remind them that nothing less than her imperious sense of duty, and devoted attachment to her old master and missis, likewise Miss Dolly and young Mr Joe, should ever have induced her to decline that pressing invitation which they, his parents, had, as he could testify, given her, to lodge and board with them, free of all cost and charge, for evermore; lastly, that he would help her with her box upstairs, and then repair straight home, bearing her blessing and her strong injunctions to mingle in his prayers a supplication that he might in course of time grow up a locksmith, or a Mr Joe, and have Mrs Vardens and Miss Dollys for his relations and friends.
Having brought this admonition to an end--upon which, to say the truth, the young gentleman for whose benefit it was designed, bestowed little or no heed, having to all appearance his faculties absorbed in the contemplation of the sweetmeats,--Miss Miggs signified to the company in general that they were not to be uneasy, for she would soon return; and, with her nephew's aid, prepared to bear her wardrobe up the staircase.
Miggs, hearing this, let her end of the box fall heavily to the floor, gave a very loud sniff, crossed her arms, screwed down the corners of her mouth, and cried, in an ascending scale, 'Ho, good gracious!' three distinct times.
'I think you said that once before, my dear,' observed the locksmith.
Again Miggs paused for a reply; and none being offered, was so oppressed with teeming spite and spleen, that she seemed like to burst.
Miss Miggs was about to add, and had, indeed, begun to add, that, taking them in the abstract, dustmen were far more eligible matches than soldiers, though, to be sure, when people were past choosing they must take the best they could get, and think themselves well off too; but her vexation and chagrin being of that internally bitter sort which finds no relief in words, and is aggravated to madness by want of contradiction, she could hold out no longer, and burst into a storm of sobs and tears.
In this extremity she fell on the unlucky nephew, tooth and nail, and plucking a handful of hair from his head, demanded to know how long she was to stand there to be insulted, and whether or no he meant to help her to carry out the box again, and if he took a pleasure in hearing his family reviled: with other inquiries of that nature; at which disgrace and provocation, the small boy, who had been all this time gradually lashed into rebellion by the sight of unattainable pastry, walked off indignant, leaving his aunt and the box to follow at their leisure. Somehow or other, by dint of pushing and pulling, they did attain the street at last; where Miss Miggs, all blowzed with the exertion of getting there, and with her sobs and tears, sat down upon her property to rest and grieve, until she could ensnare some other youth to help her home.

'Mission' Truly Impossible: The Excuse-Making Begins
This is why I love Hollywood -- It's Saturday morning and heaven-forbid I sleep in until 9:30, though I already have my computer on and online by 9:40 and already, everybody in the biz knows that "Mission: Impossible III" is a disappointment. Before the first Saturday matinee ticket has been sold, the heavily hyped season-opening blockbuster is being written up as toast.
Why? Because overnight box office figures suggest that the Tom Cruise-fronted sequel took in only $17 million on Friday, a figure that includes a handful of isolated midnight showings here or there. That puts the film on track for a $49-51 million opening weekend, though one unnamed friend and colleague says that a source at a rival studio is already predicting a $45 million first frame. That's a lot of money, but when the first movie in the series opened to $45.4 million back in 1996 and the second opened at nearly $58 million in 2000, that's not the kind of progression anybody likes to see.
Thus, it's no surprise that the first of the "Did Tom Cruise Sink M:I3?" stories are being written. Actually, there were already dozens of "Will Tom Cruise Sink M:I3?" stories written last week, but if the movie underperforms, expect dozens upon dozens more. Here's the thing to get straight: Even if it only opens at $45 million, "M:I3" isn't a bomb. That would put it on track for maybe $125-150 million domestically (probably toward the lower side), and it will make at least twice that and possibly three times as much worldwide. But that hardly matters, because by 9:08 PST this morning, Nikki Finke, scabrous columnist for LA Weekly, had her story up speculating that young males may have tired of Tom Cruise. It's a tough contention to argue with. Is there a single person out there who REALLY wanted to know more about Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes? Anybody who cared more about silent births, the evils of psychiatry or how the most powerful movie star in the world is really happy now, but had a different childhood? It's a self-fulfilling question, of course. If morons didn't devour ever word of US Weekly or Internet speculation, perhaps there wouldn't be the need for hundreds of reporters to be constantly on "TomKat Duty," as I've heard it called. It's all supply and demand. You keep reading the tabloid magazine stories and keep tuning in to the television segments and they're going to keep coming, even if you keep complaining about how you're sick of them -- you can't have it both ways, America. So you say you're sick of Tom Cruise, but you keep wanting to have new things to be sick of. Then again, there's a difference between watching a free TV program or reading a $2.95 magazine and paying 60 dollars for a family of four to go to the movies and get popcorn. Nobody's going to stop watching free Tom Cruise, but pay-for-play Tom Cruise may be in trouble.
But here's my position and one I'm going to stand by -- If "M:I3" isn't a smash hit and if it doesn't do the box office that Paramount is praying for, it's only partially Tom Cruise's fault. But the bigger fault is an issue that virtually nobody is talking about, an issue that ought to be basic in Hollywood, but really isn't...
Was anybody in America really really really eager for this movie to be made in the first place?
"M:I:3," a movie I happened to enjoy, was always the most obvious example of desperation franchise filmmaking since "Lethal Weapon 4" was rushed into production when Warner Bros. realized it didn't have a Summer 1998 tentpole. By the time David Fincher and then Joe Carnahan bailed on the sequel, it was already 2004, already four years after John Woo's "Mission: Impossible 2" and by that time, it may already have been too late. Woo's film made $215 million domestically and the film's reviews were acceptable (58% "Fresh" at RottenTomatoes), but almost to a person, everybody who knew I'd seen this new film asked me "Was it at least better than 'M:I:2'?" Some movies don't linger very well in the memory, it seems. Can anybody out there tell me anything about Woo's movie that doesn't involve Tom Cruise's hair, Dougray Scott taking his face off, the absurd motorcycle jousting or doves? Like what the movie was about? Didn't think so.
Did anybody want to watch another convoluted sub-James Bond spy vehicle with a disposable (and convoluted) plot based on a television series that young male viewers -- exactly the ones who were fickle enough to turn on Tom Cruise in the first place -- aren't even aware existed? Were there loose ends from "M:I2" that so desperately needed to be tied up? Hardly. Studios make franchise films until they kill them. That's just how it goes. Because Paramount knew the "Mission: Impossible" franchise wasn't dead, they made the movie, not because they had a storytelling reason to make the movie or because audience desire was there.
Paramount was placed in a position somewhat similar to what Sony faced on "Basic Instinct 2" -- so much money had been spent on pre-production on the different earlier incarnations and so much time had been spent leaking casting and production info to the trades, that failure to make the movie would cause everybody to lose face. That Abrams and his team actually turned in a decent film is a tremendous credit.
I guess we're a little bit sicker of Tom Cruise than we were last summer at this time, but "War of the Worlds" was a huge hit despite couch jumping, Matt Lauer baiting and all variety of other obnoxious behavior that was all fresh in our minds. Viewers were convinced that "War of the Worlds" offered them things they hadn't seen before, things that superceded how tired they were of Tom Cruise. If "Mission: Impossible 3" underperforms, it's because the movie wasn't enough of a reason to overcome Cruise malaise.
That being said, it's still Saturday afternoon. "M:I3" may get a big Saturday boost from teenage boys who spent yesterday in school yesterday. Maybe word-of-mouth will reflect the movie's quality and one or two people will tell their friends "Hey, it's not bad... Go see it." It may hold its audience well next weekend, when the biggest wide release is "Poseidon," which is nearly pre-ordained as a bomb. That Wolfgang Petersen disaster epic is still six days from release and Nikki Finke tells me it's dead in the water.
We like to move ahead of the curve out here in LA.
Anybody try seeing MI3 this weekend? Any hilarious stories about empty theaters?
Um... Obviously the Saturday box office was hurt by it also "Free Comic Book Day."
Otherwise, I'm sure that M:I:III would have hit $54 million for the weekend.
(Also, I think people are tired of cutesy abbreviations for movies.)
Daniel 11:55 AM
I suspect that Free Comic Book Day is just a myth.
In any case, "/M--i:3/" ended up with $48 million for the weekend and I'd bet dollars to donuts that when the figures shift from estimates to final #s, it'll drop a smidge more.
The way a colleague put it, and a way that puts it in some sort of context, that's $3 million lower than Van Helsing three years ago.

I came by your site from Cinematical, I found your site to be informative, comical and contemporary. Really nice reviews and features and opinions! Keep it up!

Has anyone heard about all of the "sold-out" screenings in LA that actually contained very few moviegoers? Apparently tickets were being bought by the dozen by people who never showed...I'm sure this is entirely unrelated to Scientology....
Hey Venkat...
I sometimes like to do retro posts, but mostly I do, indeed, try to stay contemporary.
So welcome to the blog and feel free to read and comment often!
MacroGal,
I read the Nikki Finke blurb and, as much as I love a good "Scientologists are INSANE" conspiracy story, I don't buy it. Buying large blocks of tix for a couple weekend showings of this movie at the Arclight isn't going to be enough to push the needle one way or the other. It's a lot like those VoteFortheWorst "Idol" freaks.... They don't have enough power to do anything, but they let people feel reassured that there's a shadowy figure behind inexplicable results... But who knows?

Truckee's FiftyFifty Brewing Co. celebrates 10 years of creating craft brews
News | June 5, 2017
Cassandra Walker | cwalker@sierrasun.com
Truckee has inspired delicious frothy delicacies including the "Foggy Goggle Belgian Wit", "Summit Pale Ale", and "Donner Party Porter" — all of which are available at local watering hole, FiftyFifty Brewing Co.
The brew house has been pouring draught beers for locals and visitors for the past 10 years and to celebrate, they're hosting a community block party on Sunday, June 4.
A Community Effort
Co-founder Alicia Barr said the block party is a way for she, her husband, and their FiftyFifty team to thank the locals for their role in seeing the brewery into its 10th year in Truckee.
"We realize the reason we've been here for 10 years is because of the local's support in the off-season," Barr said. "The tourists will find the breweries when they're here visiting, but it's the support of the loyal locals that we would like to say 'thank you' for."
Barr and her team are on a first-name basis with their regulars, they're even known to text their most frequent visitors to let them know when their favorite beer is back on tap.
"It's surreal to be celebrating 10 years and to be launching the new facility," said Barr of their big, upcoming plans.
New Production Facility
FiftyFifty has expanded to a second location, which will serve as their production facility off of River Park Place. The facility will operate solely for distribution of their North Lake Tahoe flavors in bottles and cans.
"Cans fit the lifestyle here – you just grab them and head out to the beach or the golf course without worrying about glass bottles," Barr said.
If scheduling goes without a hitch, they plan to have cans as well as their bottled brews available to the public this July.
"There is beer in the tanks that we hope to distribute in July," Barr said.
You're Invited to a Block Party
FiftyFifty's Block Party will be held on Sunday, June 4, at their location on Brockway Road. They encourage guests to walk or ride a bike to the event rather than driving, those who do will receive a raffle ticket for swag and gift cards.

Q: Diagnose message from phone to android dropped due to APP_MSG_BUSY? I'm trying to send a message from an Android companion app to a Pebble watchface app, but this fails with an APP_MSG_BUSY error.  Reading the logs, I can reconstruct the following sequence of events, which is happening repeatedly:

*

*Pebble app calls app_message_outbox_send.

*Android companion app receives PebbleDataReceiver.receiveData call.

*Android companion app calls PebbleDataReceiver.sendAckToPebble(context, id).

*Pebble app receives outbox_sent call.

*Android companion app does some work which takes less about 70ms.

*Android companion app calls PebbleKit.sendDataToPebble.

*Pebble app receives inbox_dropped call with APP_MSG_BUSY.

*adb logcat shows the following warnings:

Pbl     : [AppMessage]  there is not UUID for transactionId : -1
  Pbl     : [JsInAppMessageHandler] sendAckNackToJs: run: can not send ack message to javascript code because uuid is null

APP_MSG_BUSY suggests there is an incoming or outgoing message in progress.  However, you can see from the events above that there is no outgoing message.  Also, this is happening for every incoming message, even the first that the Pebble app receives after restarting.
Can anyone offer some insight into what's going on here?

A: I found my mistake: when I called app_message_open, I passed a value for size_inbound that was too small to receive any of the messages that were being sent.  Unfortunately, the AppMessageResult given to my inbox_dropped function wasn't APP_MSG_BUFFER_OVERFLOW as one might expect, but APP_MSG_BUSY.
Now for sheer speculation: what might have exacerbated this was that size_outbound was large enough.  In fact, my mistake was swapping the size_inbound and size_outbound arguments.  Maybe, by some logic, it didn't make sense to send APP_MSG_BUFFER_OVERFLOW because at least one of the buffers was large enough?

in one of his supplications attributed to him, 'It is You Who removed the strangers from the hearts of Your lovers so that they never love other than You... What does the one who loses You find?! And what does the one who finds You lose?! He indeed fails who is satisfied with a substitute for You.?
While calling his people to Allah's religion, the Prophet Salih (as) also said that he did not ask for any recompense from them in return.
While communicating the message of religion to their people, the messengers of Allah pointed to the signs of Allah's existence and reminded people of the flawless balance and systems in the universe and the outstanding features in the living beings that Allah created.
Allah charged His messengers with calling people to accept the true religion and set things right in the land. The above warnings of the Prophet Salih (as) serve the purpose of performing this duty.
There is certainly no power to protect those who refuse to obey Allah, and as is made clear in the above words of the Prophet Salih (as), one who follows the disobedient will himself find that it is to his detriment.
Just as the Prophet Salih (as) did, the messengers of Allah communicated to their people the message of religion, letting them know that the world is a place of trial and that only those who act on the commands of Allah will be saved from punishment. They made it clear that Allah would certainly send down a punishment to them if they persisted in disbelieving.
Yet these serious endeavours of the messengers yielded positive results only in a minor group, while the majority of people turned a deaf ear to their advice. As a result of their persistent disbelief, however, they themselves were the ones to suffer great loss as they received their punishment. Their punishment in the Hereafter will be even much more severe.

The Trail Went Cold
A true crime podcast hosted by Robin Warder
The Trail Went Cold – Episode 157 – Jamie Stickle
February 8, 2002. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. After closing up the bar she manages and drinking at various clubs in the downtown area, 33-year old Jamie Stickle drives back home to her apartment. Shortly thereafter, Jamie's Jeep Wrangler is found engulfed in flames near her front door and her badly burned body is in the driver's seat. Since some of Jamie's personal items are scattered on the ground and there is a blood trail at the scene, this seems to indicate a violent attack, but investigators are unable to determine how exactly the fire started. As a result, there is not enough concrete evidence to classify Jamie's death as a homicide and her cause of death is officially ruled to be "undetermined". Was Jamie the victim of foul play or was she actually killed in a freak accident? If it was murder, who was responsible and what could their motive have been? This week's episode of "The Trail Went Cold" explores a truly perplexing cold case which has stumped investigators for the past two decades. In addition, we will also briefly discuss the brutal unsolved murder of Catherine Corkery, which took place in Pittsburgh on July 22, 1989.

The Trail Went Cold – Episode 154 – The Walker Family Murders
December 19, 1959. Osprey, Florida. After spending the day running errands and visiting a family friend, 25-year old Cliff Walker, his 24-year old wife Christine, and their two children, three-year old Jimmie and 23-month old Debbie, head back to their rural home in separate vehicles. The following morning, the family's bodies are discovered inside their house. They were each shot in the head before Debbie was drowned in the bathtub and Christine has also been sexually assaulted. Over the next several decades, investigators would look at a number of different suspects, but two of the most promising turn out to be Perry Smith and Richard Hickock, who were responsible for the murder of the Clutter family in Kansas one month earlier, a crime which became the subject of the iconic book, "In Cold Blood". However, DNA testing on the deceased killers turns out to be inconclusive and there is no evidence to conclusively implicate anyone. This week's episode of "The Trail Went Cold" covers the harrowing murders of an entire family which have remained unsolved for 60 years. Special thanks to listener Alanna LaForce for providing the opening narration for this episode. Additional Reading: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walker_family_murders "In Colder Blood" by J.T.

December 17, 2006. Sydney, Australia. After spending the day with her family, 25-year old Katrina Ploy drives away from her parents' house. Hours later, Katrina's abandoned car and some of her possessions are found next to an oceanside cliff known as "The Gap", but Katrina herself is missing. Katrina's body is found floating in Sydney Harbour on Christmas Day, but since she has no noticeable injuries, the evidence suggests she did not fall off the cliff and entered the water at another location. An investigation reveals lot of complications in Katrina's personal life, including a secret relationship with a former biker, sexual harassment at her workplace, and rumours about her being linked to powerful figures from organized crime. In the end, a coronial inquest fails to turn up any conclusive answers about what caused Katrina's death or who might have been responsible.

The Trail Went Cold – Episode 152 – Melvin Horst
December 27, 1928. Orrville, Ohio. Four-year old Melvin Horst leaves his home to play in the neighbourhood with friends, but never returns and a search of the area fails to turn up any trace of him. Over the course of the next two years, a number of different suspects would be arrested after allegations surface that Melvin's disappearance was a revenge scheme orchestrated by local bootleggers because his uncle was the town marshal and rigidly enforced Prohibition. Two suspects are convicted of Melvin's presumed abduction before their sentences are overturned while two other men make questionable confessions which cannot be backed up by evidence. Was Melvin Horst actually abducted by criminals who were involved in bootlegging? If so, could he have been passed around and raised under a new identity somewhere? On this week's episode of the "The Trail Went Cold", we cover the oldest unsolved missing children's case in the history of Ohio, a crazy story which captured the entire na...
The Trail Went Cold – Episode 151 – The Las Cruces Bowling Alley Massacre
February 10, 1990. Las Cruces, New Mexico. A pair of armed gunmen enter a bowling alley called the Las Cruces Bowl and bring everyone inside into the manager's office. After stealing money from the safe, the assailants fire several bullets into seven people before fleeing the scene. Three of the victims – 33-year old Ida Holguin, 34-year old Stephanie Senac, and her 12-year old daughter, Melissia Repass – manage to survive the shooting, but the four other victims – 13-year old Amy Houser, 26-year old Steven Teran, his six-year old stepdaughter Paula Holguin, and his two-year old daughter Valerie Teran – wind up dead. While the crime generates a lot of publicity, the two perpetrators are never found or identified, and there is a lot debate about whether robbery was actually the true motive for this crime. This week's episode of "The Trail Went Cold" explores the "Las Cruces Bowling Alley Massacre", one of the most horrific and senseless crimes ever featured on the podcast.

March 5, 1974. Coconut Grove, Florida. 17-year old Amy Billig phones her father from her home and arranges to meet him at his workplace in order to borrow money to have lunch with friends. Amy is last hitchhiking next to a highway, but she never shows up to meet her father or her friends and is subsequently reported missing. After being informed that Amy was abducted by a gang of bikers, her mother, Susan Billig, spends the next several years attempting to track her down and even encounters a biker who claims to have bought and owned Amy for a time. The Billig family also has to endure two decades' worth of harassing phone calls from another man who claims to have kidnapped Amy, but even after the caller is identified and arrested, no trace of Amy is ever found. Was Amy Billig actually abducted and held captive by bikers? Was the tormenting caller responsible for Amy's disappearance? Or could an unknown third party have murdered her instead?

The Trail Went Cold – Episode 149 – Robert Hoagland
July 28, 2013. Newtown, Connecticut. 50-year old Robert "Hoagy" Hoagland is last seen mowing the lawn outside his house. The following day, his wife, Lori, returns from a trip to Turkey, but Hoagy fails to pick her up at the airport as scheduled. When Lori returns home, she discovers that her husband is missing and that his vehicle and all of his personal possessions have been left behind. Investigators explore the possibility that Hoagy's disappearance might be connected to drug addiction issues involving his son, Max, and a recent confrontation Hoagy had with some of Max's criminal associates. However, they also cannot rule out the idea that Hoagy disappeared voluntarily, as he had once run away from his family on a previous occasion. This week's episode of "The Trail Went Cold" explores a truly perplexing missing persons case in which there is no conclusive evidence to suggest what happened.

Thirteen straight months of gun sales records

The month of May saw yet another gun-related background check record making it the 13th month to see an all time high.
The FBI completed a record 1,870,000 checks through the National Instant Criminal Background Check System, or NICS, this May, according to an agency report. That's almost 300,000 more checks than May of 2015, which set a record at the time.
It is also nearly a million more checks than May 2008.
May was also the first month in 2016 that did not break two million checks as the gun industry enters a seasonal lull in sales. The numbers remain on pace to set another yearly record, however.
The current yearly background check record, all-time monthly record, and all-time daily record were all set in 2015.
The number of NICS checks is considered a reliable indicator for how many gun sales have taken place in a given month because nearly all sales made through licensed dealers require one. Some states also require NICS checks on all private sales as well. However, NICS checks do not represent an exact count of gun sales.
"Based on varying state laws and purchase scenarios, a one-to-one correlation cannot be made between a firearm background check and a firearm sale," the FBI noted in their report.
The streak of gun-related background checks have come during a renewed focus by Democratic leaders on gun control efforts. Both President Obama and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton have publicly expressed support for Australian-style gun confiscation measures. Clinton has also said the Supreme Court was wrong on Second Amendment gun rights protections.
Gun rights activists see a connection between the increased gun sales and calls by Democrats for new gun control.
"There is no doubt that the string of record monthly gun sales have been driven by the anti-rights agenda of the Obama Administration and the millions of dollars that Michael Bloomberg has spent assaulting the Second Amendment," Alan Gottlieb, founder of the Second Amendment Foundation, said. "Now add to that the fact that Hillary Clinton has doubled down in attacking gun ownership in her White House campaign and it is no surprise that we continue to hit new gun sales records."
"I predict that we will continue to hit new sales records as Americans vote to support Second Amendment rights right through Election Day."

Tyler Herndon Wiki – Tyler Herndon Biography
A 25-year-old police officer was shot dead just two days before his birthday.
Officer Tyler Herndon was killed in a shootout in Mount Holly, North Carolina, while fighting an armed thief early Friday.
Joshua Funk, 24, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder after police said he opened fire on officers at the scene.
Officer Herndon would celebrate his 26th birthday with his twin sister on Sunday – now his family is planning a funeral just two weeks after Christmas.
Governor Roy Cooper was among those who paid tribute to Herndon: 'Our prayers are with the family and friends of Mount Holly Police Officer Tyler Herndon, who was murdered on duty to protect the society he loved.'
Tim Moore, a Cleveland representative, added: 'It is an unthinkable tragedy that this young man, a devoted officer who wanted to spend his career to protect public safety, died in a senseless act of violence.
"Officer Herndon will be forever remembered for his sacrifice in his service to North Carolina, and I urge every citizen of our state to pray for their friends and family who have suffered this terrible loss."
At 3.30am Friday, fire was opened after Herndon and three other officers responded to reports of theft at a car wash in Mount Holly.
Officers confronted the thief before the shooting, which injured three people, including Officer Herndon.
Pamela Spencer sitting across from the car wash told WCNC that she heard 'several' gunshots before being flooded by the district police.
Herndon, an officer for less than two years, was hospitalized with serious injuries before dying of his injuries.
Among the injured was the suspect Funk, who was slightly injured after being stripped by a bullet.
The other injured person could not be identified and the police did not provide information about his situation.
The three surviving officers were on administrative leave as per department policy while the investigation was being conducted.
Mount Holly Police Chief Don Roper praised Herdon at a press conference and said he had 'potential' as an officer.
Please let this remind us all to take care of each other and accept the sacrifice most of us have made so that our society can be good places.
Funk is currently being held in police custody, accused of first-degree murder.
The State Investigation Bureau, the Home Office and the Holly Mountain Police Department are investigating the shooting.
Herndon's death is the first occurrence of an officer from Mount Holly being killed while on duty.

I do try to pay attention to what's happening in Civil 3D Land. Autodesk is always up to something, don' ja know.
The fact is other folks also do some really cool stuff. Some of it is artful and simply genius.
Some of that we may sooner or later get our hands on too.
Last month I caught an FDOT (Florida Department of Transportation) internal training webinar with something very interesting.
Right before Labor Day seems to me the time to post it.
Some of the things that float around could and should have been done long ago in AutoCAD Civil 3D. This is certainly one of them.
The video is an outtake of Randy Roberts presentation in mid-July of the new FDOT Multi-line tool for their upcoming Oct 2016 release of the FDOT Civil 3D State Kit. It's a technology preview of a coming attraction if you will.
Yes, Randy. 80%+ percent of the way there is a LOT better than the 1%.
Gee. Imagine the simple idea of employing XML files to store the complicated property setup work in libraries you can load and modify at will. We do that for Survey Figure Prefix libraries from our Excel Spreadsheet tools. Never mind. I digress.
Maybe the XML should remind you of Intersection Assembly Sets that Autodesk pretty much quit on way back in 2012 or was it in 2010 when they built it. An interface to design, build, and maintain the Set content never really got built. Dumb.
The cries and screams for more Types of Intersection solutions was completely lost to chasing DOTs.
Driveways, trenches, etc could be easy, but are such a pain. Dumber.
It seems fitting it comes back in this way to haunt us all.
I say the Civil 3D Offset Alignment tool should look more like this too. Dooh. I want this one to be an Alignment, but not that one. Give me options. You get the point. Could you drive this into real point and shoot with a Layout toolbar? You betcha. Maybe you agree?
Tell Autodesk. Maybe someone will finally do something about a most needed feature after a decade(s).
Ok. Maybe Bentley might sue Autodesk for doing this…Don't they have an interoperability agreement? Maybe that says neither party can fix anything?
Just maybe a dumb version is coming in a future Civil 3D Productivity Pack? Want to hold your breath?

SMASHback #2: ASSvision
Some more thoughts on the London Graphic Novel Network's second S.M.A.S.H. event, as previously discussed here.
You can watch the panel I contributed to below:
My speech at the start of this panel now exists like the death of Orion in/around Final Crisis, in a mini-kaleidoscope of different versions and recordings scattered across the internet – suits me, given the daft flourish about the Tower of Babel I threw in at the end of it!
The other panellists brought a range of expertise, and while there weren't any heated arguments, I think our personalities and perspectives clashed in a way that was generally illustrative – Hannah was comfortable enough in her own skin to be flip and funny about taste, Katriona's contributions were considered and precise, and Mark's focus on technical skill neatly offset my own pseudo-academic tendencies.
As for the broader event, if you'd asked me I would have said that the crowd skewed young and "progressive" (not a term I'm over-fond of myself – I like specificity, a sense of what is being advanced – but having just used it like this I can see the appeal of its vagueness) but there was some pushback when Kelly Kanayama/Maid of Nails discussed the use of racist tropes in the first Warren Ellis/Bryan Hitch Authority story during the panel on MEANING.
Reconstructing intent was a running theme of all three panels (the other two were ART and DIVERSITY, remember), and in this instance it took the form of the Good Man defence: "Given what we know about Warren Ellis' politics, I think we're being ridiculous here!"
A milder version of this was invoked during the London Graphic Novel Network's subsequent discussion of the same story. It's… I was going to try to be kind, but fuck it, it's a totally inadequate response. It'd be comforting to think that nice, well intentioned people can't make dodgy art, but it really doesn't work like that, and The Authority's no exception – we've got to deal with this comic and all of its constituent panels as they actually exist in the world.
I'd be up for reading the Kaizen Gamorra story in a way that makes the deployment of this Fu Manchu stereotype pointed and interesting. I've yet to encounter one that extended to more than a plea for critical immunity.
None of this means that we are excluding creators from the conversation, or simply getting them "telt", just that we aren't bound to bow to them or to accept their intention as a replacement for what they've actually done for it.
Asking creative people what they were trying to do with a story, or a panel layout, or a colouring choice provides a vector of insight that you might not be able to access otherwise. We can ask "what were you thinking", in ALL CAPS or otherwise . Writers and artists can't dictate their own achievements but they can show you a new way of understanding the page; readers can provide a similar vision to those on the other side of the relationship, though it requires a touch of sly Star Trek style magic, a reversal of polarities.
What this leaves us with is a position of shared responsibility: we're all het for our own contributions, and we should all do better. After all, we're all we've got.
For me this means trying to develop my understanding of my reactions into something worth arguing for/against. This is where the question of taste comes in – this was where my pitch in the ART panel started, and the ensuing panel debate came back to it over and over again.
Taste is in us but it's not innate, and it's certainly never innocent. The temptation to think otherwise is hard wired and should be resisted. "This band's great"/"This band's crap" is a non-conversation, but while I'm sceptical that we can ever truly know our own reactions, we can only discuss them once we've done the work involved in trying to understand them.
I'm a writer and I fail at this all day long.
A final note, to tie all of this together into something that will hopefully feel worthy of your time. Artist and architect extraordinaire Alison Sampson challenged my panel to stop using moral terms like good and bad to describe comics art, and to find words that expressed what we were actually trying to say instead. In the aftermath, amidst much verbal floundering, Stafford's top Darth Vader impersonator Kieron Gillen suggested that the best multi-purpose description would be EFFECTIVE / INEFFECTIVE and I found myself agreeing with his typically generous contribution.
Now, I'm not so sure. If we limit our reading to what's effective, we might too easily find ourselves reading only in ways that confirm our expectations, merely working out whether the work in question tics the boxes required to appeal to a certain set of standards or tastes.
Considering not just whether comic book art functions but how it functions, and what parts of it exceed or bewilder those functions, can be painful. It can mean having to confront the fact that an action story you enjoyed used racist stereotypes as shorthand, but that's essential because it's also part of figuring out what engaging with the work in question actually means. If the work uses racist stereotypes it's worth considering not just whether those are deployed effectively (be that effect satirical or otherwise) but what impact they might have on those being stereotyped – reading beyond function can, in situations like this, lead to a genuine moral judgement.
It can also lead to a richer aesthetic experience, one in which estimating whether you think a strip works is only the start – what comes next is the difficult/fun part, really engaging with the comic and its creators, reacting to their movements as they happen, never being able to reconstruct the intent behind them, thrilling in or reviling the unnecessary quirks or excesses that are thrown to the floor, and dancing not just because you think you know all the steps but because you actually want to take part.
Art is just us, but like I said, we're all we've got. Better learn to make the most of it.

I am Suranga. Friends call me as "Sura". Ok I have degree in Peace and conflict resoltuion in the Uni. Of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka. And I have been engaged with Sri Lankan civil soceity activities during last five years, related to peace building and conflict transformation activites espessialy with youth groups. Will update more about me soon.
Hmmm anyway i'm a human who loves to live in peace and who is intending to make the place I am living a better place to live for everyone.


I think it is a very good for someone who only wants to go for two years. My mother and brother both went to there and graduated with their associates degree. They both commuted to and from school about 2-3 days a week. You can also pick what days that you want to go to school.
I find Adirondack a very good school, although I am older and these questions did not apply to me as I have a family at home. I put off school after high school and traveled the world seeing things now that I'm here I'm very happy with my choice. This school offers so much fro a younger student body which is great for them.
it is a great school with many programs, great staff and students. The staff help out the students with homework and extra help. the school is also very affordable and there are 2 campuses. one in Wilton and the other in queensbury. If you are looking with a school with small to medium class sizes, affordable tuition and local, this is a school that might interest you.
I have taken classes throughout the school year and summers, and I prefer the regular school year classes to summer. In the summer, they often have a lot of construction going on, making it hard to navigate around the campus. During the year, though, the professors are very informed and it is easy to learn and get a good grade as long as you do what is expected of you, to the best of your ability. Overall, it is an enjoyable experience. I learned a lot, and the tuition isn't too bad, plus for being a community college, it has a lot to offer.
I really like ACC because of how small it is. The classes are usually no more than about twenty and some are even smaller. The teacher knows everyone's name and is usually more than willing to help if someone is struggling with something. The teachers are also really great people which makes class much more fun.
Adirondack Community College afforded me the opportunity to begin my college career while still allowing me to undergo a discovery process about what I wanted to study. I was able to complete many of my general education requirements in an financially intelligent way and it helped me make a transition from high school to college in a seemless manner. It gave me the tools I neded to transfer to the 4 year school of my dreams!
My first year in college was at a local community college. I chose this option to complete some general education courses at lesser expense, but also to create a stronger academic profile to expand my 4 year college options. This transition was pretty seemless, as I was still living at home and not transitioning to life "on my own". I do wish I could go back and talk to my high school sophomore and junior self, so I would have focused better on my academics then so that I would have been in a better position to take advantage of college scholarship opportunities, as they are far more limited for transfer students. I would tell myself procrastination is NEVER a good strategy and that good organization skills are a must. As for moving away to school, I will make that leap on August 17th, when I move from NY to Missouri to attend Mizzou. Since this will be a new experience, I can only hope that many of the lessons I have learned my college freshman year will serve to make me better prepared for this exciting step. Thank you!
I tell me friends that I made a smart choice to attend college one year at home. Since much of the first year of school is made up of general education requirements, SUNY Adirondack allowed me to complete those at far less expense. I was also able to complete many of these classes in a smaller more intimate way, than many of the large lecture hall classes.
First, I would have taken my hand and dragged myself onto the Adirondack Community College campus for a tour. The campus settings (grounds, facilities, faculty, technology... you name it) are astounding. The location for upstate New York residents like myself is also a big plus. By doing this I would have encouraged myself to give it a chance and not to worry so much about how it was going to be paid for, but instead, tell myself that no matter what, it will have eventually paid for itself. Secondly, I would tell myself the reprocussions of not having furthered my education. Reiterating how I spent 21 years in the workforce primarily at the operative level. How I spent many wasted years enduring a false sense of pride by struggling to advance in my field of work with nearly nothing to show for it. Being self-taught has its advantages but not nearly as many as in pursuing a higher form of education. Finally, I would have pleaded with myself to take the time to research and write down all the pros and cons in the matter of attending college verses the reprocussions of joining the workforce without a college education.
Definately the Professors and faculty. They have all been exceptionally helpful, knowledgable, curtious and inspiring. I earnestly believe in order to have a successful education in a classroom setting at least fifty percent rides on the mentor's presentation and willingness to provide each of their students with the individual needs they require for advancement. The Professor's at Adirondack Community College have made all the difference to me in furthering my college experience and success.
How utterly and ultimately enlightening the experience would be. If I had known then what I know now, I would have done it sooner.
If I could go back and talk to myself as a senior in high school, I would tell myself to make sure I finish off my high school academic career with above average grades. I would tell myself to push harder. I only wish I had known then what I know now about college and what a good high school transcript could have done for me. I would have done well enough to where I could have gotten into a decent four year school right out of high school.
Anyone of any age who is interested in furthering their education.
I enjoyed most everything about my school except for the lack of good parking and no swim team/pool.
Adirondack Community College administrators: claim your school to add photos and details.


Sorry, this was a typo.
command goes to the correct location and I can choose site-lisp.el.
So it is still unclear why it doesn't work.
Is there a problem with '/' vs. '\' ??

Rolling Pin — Equipping a Job Platform for the Future
To pave the way to a sleek, future-proof and SEO-optimized platform, Rolling Pin collaborated with Parkside to reinvent their online appearance.
Overhaul the Rolling Pin platform with a sleek and modern design and UX. Combine several data sources and workflows into a scalable and maintainable system with state-of-the-art technology.
The relaunch of the Rolling Pin platform brought about a multitude of positive changes. A rebuilt technological foundation ensures that the platform performs well and remains stable and scalable. With a new look, a modern tech stack, and with a mobile app project well under way, Rolling Pin is all set to further extend their influence on an international level.
About Rolling Pin
With thousands of open positions, Rolling Pin is one of the biggest and most successful job platforms in the gastronomy and hotel sectors in the DACH region. As a publisher of their own magazine, they have a substantial international reach in the web as well as in print and social media and serve both employers and applicants.
Lumen (PHP), Swagger, WordPress, React, TypeScript, Docker, Kubernetes, Ruby, NginX, ElasticSearch, Kibana, MySQL, Redis
Challenges and Objectives
Our collaboration with Rolling Pin began with our outstanding design that completely revamped the existing UX and UI of the platform. During the design process, one of our guiding principles was to harmonize the look and feel of the platform with Rolling Pin's magazines to ensure a consistent and persuasive online appearance.
In terms of technological development, the first and foremost challenge was to centralize all the systems that provide content for Rolling Pin. To that end, we played a major strategic role in developing a new architecture that would significantly reduce administrative expenditures.
One of the principal tasks in devising a new architecture was to seamlessly integrate the external CRM system that provides all data for the career platform. This integration was built on ultra-modern technologies and interfaces and it should allow the Rolling Pin staff to optimize their internal processes considerably.
In the next step, we fine-tuned the interplay of the job platform with the management of the editorial content through WordPress. For the frontend of these two constituent parts, we utilized React to provide a smooth and ideal frontend UX. Furthermore, optimal SEO rankings are made possible thanks to a pre-rendering service that adapts the website content for search engines.
One other aspect where Rolling Pin could benefit from our expertise was the innovations we had introduced to the system administration of our client projects with our novel build system.
A key advantage of this system is to be able to test individual feature branches swiftly and comfortably. This was realized with Buildkite, a CI/CD platform that creates builds for the code in our repositories, which are then deployed to Kubernetes. Thanks to that process, every branch has its own link that provides access to the newest build. Thus, QA and developers can test the same build of a feature and work together more efficiently.
"The multilayered nature of the project made it clear that we needed to use our own build system for an efficient development process."

nice environment to be in. The vibe is great, and all the people get along together.
racing for the same goal—to win.
wanted to do the best that we could.
HERE'S AN INTERESTING FACT: YOU WERE KEN ROCZEN'S FAVORITE RACER WHEN HE WAS YOUNGER. That's really cool to me. I remember meeting Kenny when he was 15 years old. He was a great kid. Even to this day, he is an awesome dude. He has really showed a lot of brilliance at a young age, as well as a lot of dominance. It was kind of the same for me. Back when I was a kid, I really looked up to Ricky Carmichael, and later James Stewart. I idolized them, but you have to put that aside, like I had to do when I later raced James.
It's really hard when you are young to believe that you are at that level.
That's why it's so cool to hear that about Kenny.
DO YOU EVER ENCOUNTER BURNOUT? The seasons are long and tough, and there is definitely a lot of hard work that goes into it. Even before the season there is so much work that goes into it, especially in the 450 class where there are around 30 races a year. It adds up. People only see me on the weekends. They don't know about all of the hard work that goes on during the week. As long as I still enjoy racing, then I'll be lining up to the gate. I've learned to push through things when times get tough. To this day, I remember when I was 12 years old. I went for a run and my side started aching, but I refused to stop running. I knew that as soon as I gave up once, then it would be easier to quit next time. Since then, I've been constantly monitoring myself. I'm always looking to make improvements.
DO YOU BELIEVE THAT AN AGGRESSIVE RIDING STYLE WOULD BE MORE ADVANTAGEOUS? Not to hurt anyone's feelings, but unless it's coming from Roger, one of the team personnel or somebody in my close circle, then I don't pay much attention to that stuff. It's a quick way to get lost. To have people who have never raced a dirt bike tell you what to do is crazy. I focus on what I feel will better me. Maybe I am not the best at all times, but I try to be consistently good while bettering myself in the areas that I feel I need to improve on. I never settle. I don't really care what the critics say, but I have always tried hard to be good to my fans.
HOW MUCH LONGER DO YOU PLAN TO RACE? There have been times when it has been pretty tough to keep going, but when you figure out why it has gotten tough, you learn from it. I am constantly learning. Even recently I have been learning about what makes me tick. I am always thinking about what I can do to be mentally stronger.
