Grandmaster Steve Lee Swift has 50 years of experience in the world of martial arts. He has dedicated himself to over 42 years of training in Wing Chun Kung Fu and 8 years in Okinawan Karate. Teaching and practicing Wing Chun is Grandmaster Swift's sole profession. He is a member of the United States and International Martial Arts Hall of Fame and the World Head of Family Soke Council-ship Grandmasters Hall of Fame. Grandmaster Swift provides extensive instruction in realistic combat training and the direct and effective techniques of Wing Chun Kung Fu. Grandmaster Swift traveled the world learning directly from the source: the sons of legendary Yip Man (Yip Ching and Yip Chun), Simon Lau, and even the renownedly known Wong Shun Leung. Grandmaster Swift has spent his life perfecting the art of Wing Chun Kung Fu. Beginners, instructors, and masters of all styles continue to seek out Grandmaster Swift.
The effectiveness of Wing Chun in realistic combat is that of pure art. It takes combat into the world of chess allowing techniques to flow like that of a river without thought or conscious mind. It allows for the events of the moment to pass in almost slow motion letting the body perform what the mind has been taught.
Grandmaster Swift first began boxing at age 4, his martial arts training in Okinawan Karate started at the age of 9, earning his black belt by the age of 13. For the next several years Grandmaster Swift participated in tournaments and taught his karate style through several different high school and college programs. At 17, he discovered there was something missing in the arts that he studied as a youth. The young, aggressive, and adept Steve Lee Swift would soon empty his cup and surrender all that he had learned to his true calling: the art of Wing Chun Kung Fu.
Even as a child, with his family involved in traveling and helping the military issues of the world, survival was a grave necessity for him. Grandmaster Swift was in need of an art that would help him not only to stay alive, but an art that would help him against multiple opponents in close quarter combat. What the Grandmaster searched for was the fastest and most practical street form of street tactical self defense, he found it in Wing Chun: an extremely fast and practical art form, designed for life-saving purposes, with no tournament rules to follow.
Immediately after graduating in 1977, Grandmaster Swift traveled back and forth from England to Hong Kong, to pursue the fullest extent of Wing Chun training. While overseas, Swift trained under Simon Lau, Yip Chun, Yip Ching, and Wong Shun Leung, and thus learned the complete Wing Chun system. Grandmaster Swift was the first United States citizen to be certified in Hong Kong as a senior instructor of the Ving Tsun Athletic Association, and has since owned and operated some of the largest Wing Chun schools in the world.
In 1983, Grandmaster Swift founded the Steve Lee Swift International Martial Arts Academy, and began developing the necessary fundamentals to organize and administer the highest quality Wing Chun School in the world. Known as one of the world's fastest and most knowledgeable Wing Chun artists of our time, Grandmaster Steve Lee Swift would then pass the art on with the heart and caring that it takes to teach the intricate style properly. It was Yip Man's wish before he died that this be done. Through the true lineage of the direct sons of Yip Man, Swift made this possible being the first to bring them here to the states not once but four times. Yip Chun & Yip Ching resided with Grandmaster Steve Lee Swift and wife during their visits to the United States. Grandmaster Steve Lee Swift was the first person to bring the Yip Man Family to the United States.
Through the art of Wing Chun, Grandmaster Swift has taught many Chicago youth that a better way than failure is the way of success. It is certain that these students who trained closely with him hold the gift sacred that the Grandmaster has shared.
Grandmaster Swift has been honored in 278 news and magazine articles on the Art of Wing Chun, including articles in the respected martial arts publications Inside Kung Fu and Black Belt Magazines. Several publications published articles about Grandmaster Steve Lee Swift when he saved the lives and health of multiple men and women who were the victims of assault. Thanks to Grandmaster Swift's intervention, these individuals can still tell the story of their encounter today. Grandmaster Steve Lee Swift was the first Senior Instructor to be certified by the elders of the VING TSUN Athletic Association and the Yip Man Athletic Association He currently lives in Minnetonka, Minnesota and has schools in Minnetonka, Minnesota and Tampa, Florida. Grandmaster Swift continues extending the wish of his elders to pass on the art of Wing Chun to those with the heart and soul to learn.
Here at Grandmasters Academy of Wing Chun Kung Fu, we are honored to represent the elite international organization of Grandmaster Steve Lee Swift.

Fighting Slavery: Worldviews & Abolitionist Champions
byBill Federer
An overview of centuries of the sinful practice of slavery and what motivated those who fought to end it.
Slavery existed from the beginning of recorded history.
The movement to abolish slavery developed largely in western Judeo-Christian civilization.
In the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 7:12), Jesus taught:
"Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets."
As the Roman Empire became Christianized, slavery diminished.
In the 5th century, invading hoards overran the Roman Empire, but they were eventually converted and ceased enslaving captives.
Saint Patrick's Letter To King Coroticus, condemning his enslavement of Irish in the 5th century was one of the first anti-slavery documents.
"Thy sheep around me are tom to pieces and driven away, and that by those robbers, by the orders of the hostile-minded Coroticus ... a man who hands over Christians to the Picts and Scots.
Ravening wolves have devoured the flock of the Lord ... You ... sell them to a foreign nation that has no knowledge of God. You betray the members of Christ as it were into a brothel ...
People who were freeborn have been sold, Christians made slaves, and that, too, in the service of the abominable, wicked, and apostate Picts!"
In the 7th century, Islam spread rapidly with conquered infidels being made chattel slaves, military slaves, domestic slaves, and concubine slaves.
Slavery was practiced by Caliphs and Sultans through the next 1,400 years.
Twice as many women were sold in the Arab Muslim slave trade than men.
"Prophet, We have made lawful to you ... the slave girls whom Allah has given you as booty." (Qur'an 33:50)
Women were put in harems, which were kept by eunuchs, both white and black male slaves who were castrated.
Black male slaves suffered more cut "level with the abdomen," resulting in high mortality rates.
The Arabic word "Abd" or "Abeed" is the name used for both "African" and "slave."
There never was a successful abolitionist movement to end slavery in the sharia Islamic world, as Mohammed owned slaves and it is forbidden to criticize him.
Vikings attacked across Europe, killing men and carrying away thousands of Christian women as captives.
These women raised their Viking children to be Christians, and eventually, the Norse kingdoms discontinued slavery.
Medieval Catholic Orders of Mathurins and Trinitarians collected alms and ransomed captives from North Africa Muslim slavery.
In the 16th century, Spanish and Portuguese Empires participated in the slave trade of indigenous populations, often purchasing them from Muslim slave markets in Africa, the Far East and the New World
When Spanish enslaved Indians in the New World, the priest Bartolomé de las Casas, motivated by the Gospel, championed the ending the enslavement of native Americans.
Sadly, once the enslavement of native Americans was outlawed by Spain, greed motivated merchants begin importing slaves from Africa.
In the 17th century, English sold thousands of Irish into slavery, and some Dutch, French and English merchants began to engage in the African slave trade.
The first African slaves were brought to the colony of Virginia on a Dutch ship in 1619.
Slavery expanded significantly after Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin in 1794, which turned cotton into the main crop in America's South.
In the early 18th century, Quakers, led by abolitionist Anthony Benezet, consistently lobbied to end slavery.
French officer Marquis de Lafayette had joined the American Revolutionary, being considered almost as an adopted son of General George Washington.
After the war, Lafayette returned to France and joined the French abolitionist Society of the Friends of the Blacks, which advocated the end of the slave trade and equal rights for blacks.
The French Revolution ended slavery in France, but not in French colonial holdings, such as Louisiana and Haiti.
Washington encouraged Lafayette, April 5, 1783:
"The scheme ... which you propose as a precedent, to encourage the emancipation of the black people of this Country from that state of Bondage in which. they are held, is a striking evidence of the benevolence of your Heart.
I shall be happy to join you in so laudable a work; but will defer going into a detail of the business, 'till I have the pleasure of seeing you."
Lafayette's plan to emancipate all slaves was thought impossible by some, to which he replied:
"If it be a wild scheme, I had rather be mad in this way, than to be thought wise in the other task."
In the last 6 years of Washington's life, he attempted to take four of the farms on his plantation and make them into rental properties, thus transitioning away from slavery.
On May 10, 1786, George Washington wrote from Mount Vernon to Marquis de Lafayette:
"Your late purchase of an estate in the colony of Cayenne, with a view of emancipating the slaves on it, is a generous and noble proof of your humanity. Would to God a like spirit would diffuse itself generally into the minds of the people of this country."
Some well-known American founders advocated abolishing slavery:
Richard Allen
Daniel Webster
Richard Bassett, a signer of the Constitution, became an enthusiastic Methodist Christian and freed all his slaves, paying them as hired labor.
John Jay helped draft New York's first Constitution. He proposed it abolish slavery, writing to Robert Livingston and Gouverneur Morris, April 29, 1777, that there should be:
"... a clause against the continuation of domestic slavery."
Jay helped found the New York State Society for Promoting the Manumission (Freeing) of Slaves in 1785, filing lawsuits on behalf of slaves.
He wrote to Benjamin Rush, March 24, 1785:
"I wish to see all ... discriminations everywhere abolished, and that the time may soon come when all our inhabitants of every color and denomination shall be free and equal partakers of our political liberty."
Jay helped found New York's African Free School in 1787 and supported it financially.
He even bought slaves in order to immediately free them, writing:
"I purchase slaves and manumit them."
Jay was appointed by George Washington to be the first Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, serving from 1789 to 1795.
As second Governor of New York, John Jay signed an Act for the Gradual Abolition of Slavery in 1799, prohibiting the exportation of slaves and making a path for children of slaves to attain freedom.
Jay was also president of the American Bible Society, 1821-1828.
Newspaper editor Horace Greeley wrote in 1854:
"To Chief Justice Jay may be attributed, more than to any other man, the abolition of Negro bondage in this State."
In the late 18th and early 19th century, John Newton and William Wilberforce, motivated by the Gospel, led the anti-slavery movement in England.
William Wilberforce stated:
"You may choose to look the other way, but you can never say again that you did not know."
Once Britain ended slavery, they worked to abolish it in their colonies.
Due in large part to the Second Great Awakening Revival, the missionary and abolitionist movements grew in America in the early 19th century.
Some well-known Americans who advocated abolishing slavery were:
John Bingham
Salmon P. Chase
Cassius Marcellus Clay
Charles Finney
John C. Freemont
William Lloyd Garrison
Hannibal Hamlin
Julia Ward Howe
Elijah P. Lovejoy
Elizabeth Stanton
Thaddeus Stevens
Charles Sumner
Theodore Dwight Weld
John Greenleaf Whittier
William Lloyd Garrison wrote, December 14, 1833:
"The right to enjoy liberty is inalienable. To invade it, is to usurp the prerogative of Jehovah.
Every man has a right to his own body — to the products of his own labor— to the protection of law — and to the common advantages of society.
It is piracy to buy or steal a native African, and subject him to servitude. Surely the sin is as great to enslave an American as an African."
John Jay's son, William Jay (1789-1858), founded New York City's Anti-Slavery Society in 1833.
William Jay drafted the constitution for the American Anti-Slavery Society and served as its corresponding foreign secretary, 1835-1837.
William Jay was the first judge of New York's Westchester County from 1820 to 1842, but was removed on account of his strong anti-slavery views.
William Jay helped to found the American Bible Society in 1818.
William Jay's son, John Jay II (1817-1894), was manager of the New York Young Men's Anti-Slavery Society in 1834.
John Jay II was a prominent member of the anti-slavery Free Soil Party.
John Jay II later helped found in New York a branch of the new political party dedicated to the social issue of ending slavery -- the Republican Party.
Francis Scott Key labored for seven years before the Supreme Court to free 300 African slaves from the ship Antelope captured off the coast of Florida in 1820.
Jonathan M. Bryant wrote in Dark Places of the Earth: The Voyage of the Slave Ship Antelope (2015):
"Most startling of all, Key argued ... that all men were created equal ... If the United States had captured a ship full of white captives,
Key asked, would not our courts assume them to be free? How could it be any different simply because the captives were black?"
In 1841, two years before his death, Francis Scott Key helped former President John Quincy Adams free 53 African slaves in the Amistad case.
In his 1844 decision, Supreme Court Justice Joseph Story helped establish the illegality of the slave trade, as portrayed in Steven Spielberg's 1997 movie Amistad.
Salmon P. Chase coined the slogan of the Free Soil Party:
"Free Soil, Free Labor, Free Men."
A member of the newly created Republican Party, Salmon P. Chase defended so many escaped slaves that he was nicknamed "Attorney-General of Fugitive Slaves."
Salmon P. Chase was appointed by President Abraham Lincoln as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court where he admitted John Rock as the first African-American attorney to argue cases before the Supreme Court.
Lincoln's Secretary of State was William Seward.
A life-long abolitionist, Seward and his wife helped with the Underground Railroad, lent money to Frederick Douglass for his North Star Newspaper, and helped Harriet Tubman purchase property in their hometown of Auburn, New York.
An attempt was made on Seward's life the same night Lincoln was assassinated.
Seward arranged the purchase of Alaska from Russia in 1867.
The U.S. Minister to Russia who helped negotiate the purchase of Alaska was Cassius Marcellus Clay.
Cassius Clay heard William Lloyd Garrison speak while a student at Yale and became an abolitionist.
Clay helped to found the Republican Party and served three terms as a Kentucky Representative till he lost his seat due to his strong anti-slavery views.
In 1843, pro-slavery Democrats attacked Cassius Clay and shot him in the chest, but he was able to fight them off with his Bowie knife.
In 1845, Clay began publishing the anti-slavery newspaper The True American.
He received death threats and had to barricade his newspaper office doors. A pro-slavery Democrat mob broke in and stole his printing equipment.
In 1849, while making an anti-slavery speech, Clay was attacked, beaten, stabbed, and almost shot, till he fought off his attackers.
Cassius Marcellus Clay helped pressure Republican President Abraham Lincoln to issue the Emancipation Proclamation.
Another anti-slavery leader was Rufus King, was born March 24, 1755.
Rufus King was a Harvard graduate who was an aide to General Sullivan during the Revolutionary War.
At 32 years old, Rufus King was one of the youngest signers of the U.S. Constitution.
Rufus King later served as U.S. Minister to England, U.S. Senator from New York, and was a candidate for U.S. President.
In a speech made before the Senate at the time Missouri was petitioning for statehood, Rufus King stated:
"I hold that all laws or compacts imposing any such condition as slavery upon any human being are absolutely void because they are contrary to the law of nature, which is the law of God."
Slavery was ended in the United States after the Civil War and the ratifying of the 13th Amendment.
By the late 1800s, slavery ended in Caribbean, Central and South America.
In India, generational indebtedness sees rural peasants born in debt, live in debt and die in debt.
The Human Rights Commission of Pakistan has worked to free some of the thousands in southern Singh held in leg-irons due to unpaid debt and forced to harvest cane.
The U.S. State Department in 1993 estimated 90,000 Southern Sudanese were captured and taken into slavery by North African Arabs.
Yazidi, Christian, and other non-Muslim women have been forced into sex slavery by the Islamic State.
UNICEF estimated 200,000 children a year are sold from West and Central Africa to be domestic, agricultural, and sex slaves in neighboring countries.
The International Labor Rights and Education Fund works to rescue some of the hundreds of thousands of kidnapped children in India locked rooms forced to weave carpets.
Accounts persist of young girls in Thailand and other Asian countries sold into lives of prostitution.
Georgetown University Professor Jonathan Brown, holder of the Al-Waleed bin Talal Chair in Islamic Civilization, delivered a lecture, February 7, 2017, explaining how slavery and non-consensual sex (rape) are acceptable practices under Islamic sharia law.
The Geneva Summit for Human Rights and Democracy heard accounts of the thousands held in North Korean slave labor camps.
While efforts to end slavery continue, it is important to remember what motivated the abolition movement in Western Civilization, as Rufus King told the Senate:
"All laws ... imposing any such condition as slavery upon any human being are absolutely void because they are contrary to the law of nature, which is the law of God."

You can do both manual or by script but i don't see why you would do it by script since this is clearly a one time operation.

Footage of the battle of Russian special forces in Ukraine was caught on video
In the course of the Russian special operation on Ukrainian territory, real evidence from the scene periodically appears on the Web. This time, the video recorded and then made public a fierce battle between servicemen of the Russian Armed Forces with "O" symbols in the Donbass.
Events developed as follows. One of the units of the RF Armed Forces, together with the fighters of the NM of the LPR and the DPR, attacked the city of Liman (formerly Krasny Liman), a major railway junction in the Kramatorsk district of the Donetsk region. The Ukrainian Armed Forces attacked them from an empty village, after which a combined group of special forces and motorized riflemen was promptly sent to help them.
Arriving special forces and motorized riflemen opened heavy fire on the enemy from RPGs, BTR-82A cannons and machine guns. During the clash, they suppressed the firing points of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The surviving Ukrainian security forces decided to retreat. After that, the consolidated group left to replenish ammunition and wait for the next call, and the remaining fighters carried out a sweep of this settlement and began to move towards the intended goal.
It should be added that before that, this "flying detachment" captured one of the fortified strongholds of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and in a clash in a forest destroyed a large group of enemy servicemen. Earlier we Reported how many trophies in the Donbas have already been won by the MTR of the RF Armed Forces with the identification mark "O" on the chevrons.

strange battle tactics. the fighters are firing bumblebee RPGs and machine guns, and the guns of the nearby armored personnel carriers are silent. As if there were no shooters in the armored personnel carrier. The shells are either saving or simply afraid to be inside the armored personnel carrier.

Denk contrasts Mozart and Beethoven with American works in fascinating 92Y recital
By Sam Jacobson, 13 December 2020
Jeremy Denk is certainly a pianist with a gift for constructing thoughtful and intriguing recital programs. Presented by New York's 92Y – though live-streamed from the Hume Concert Hall at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music where Denk is on the faculty – his Sunday afternoon recital was indeed a fascinating lineup of contrasts and connections. Bookended by mighty C minor piano sonatas of Mozart and Beethoven, a triptych of comparatively obscure works by American composers served as a wonderfully colorful interlude.
Jeremy Denk

Mozart's Piano Sonata no. 14 in C minor made for dramatic beginnings, accentuated by the pointed outlining of the C minor triad. A lyrical secondary theme offered singing contrast in due course, and one could certainly sense how Beethoven would be influenced by the stormy development. Played with stylish elegance, the major key Adagio was a calming respite before the exhilarating conclusion, firmly back in the tragic home key.
The first entry of the American sojourn turned to "Blind Tom" Wiggins. Despite his blindness, Wiggins boasted a prodigious piano technique and a repertoire of a purported 7000 pieces. While a slave on a Georgia plantation, he toured the States to enormous acclaim and sensation, in some cases invoking comparison to the reception of Liszt across the Atlantic. The Battle of Manassas depicts in cinematic detail the eponymous Civil War battle (and Confederate victory). Interpolations of Dixie, Yankee Doodle, Le Marseillaise, and The Star-Spangled Banner were heard in succession, heightened by a panoply of mesmerizing pianistic effects – humorously including percussive interjections in the bass. A breathless display of interlocking octaves brought matters to a calamitous close.
Joplin's Heliotrope Bouquet followed, one of the composer's handful of collaborative works, in this case with Louis Chauvin, the latter by all accounts a major talent, dying tragically young (among the earliest known members of the so-called "27 Club"). The lyrical melodies and languid melancholy showed Joplin at his finest. Though the composer preferred ragtime played in a strict march tempo, Denk made a convincing case for peppering Joplin rags with a modest swing.
In the late 1970s, Frederic Rzewski composed the Four North American Ballads for pianist Paul Jacobs, improvisatory-like works based upon American folk and protest songs, concluding with the impressive Winnsboro Cotton Mill Blues. Denk delivered the tone clusters in the keyboard's lowest registers with ferocious relentlessness, eerily bringing to life the mechanistic monstrosities of industrial America. Fragments of melody began to take shape, eventually giving way to the titular blues tune. Echoes of the metallic hammering resurfaced in the upper register, yet seemingly it was the song of resistance that won this musical fight against oppression.
A few days shy of Beethoven's 250th birthday, his final piano sonata brought the program full circle to conclude. With an arresting opening gesture, Denk built to chilling power and pathos, deftly navigating the fugal textures interleaved into the first movement's remarkable architecture. In the finale, a simple germ of a rhythmic idea grew to magisterial complexity, climaxing in what Denk called an "uncanny transcendence" to close the program in a ray of bright light.

The Lost Ship
by Jeff Lucas
ASIN: B09JZQDKMH
Jack secretly embarks on the dive, taking his gear and some gadgets invented by his dad including a "scubaphone," a device that allows divers to communicate without a tablet (one was recently lost on an ocean outing). When Jack soon spots an octopus, he is elated...and astonished to find that it can speak! Armstrong, as the affable animal calls himself, is the proud owner of the lost scubaphone, enabling him to chat with a flummoxed Jack. From listening to passing boaters and divers over time, including Jack's dad and his assistant Max, Armstrong has an excellent command of language...and impeccable manners, to boot! A wary Jack is appeased when his eight-armed companion tells him, "Look, Jack, I don't intend to eat you...We're going to be friends." The duo's friendship is solidly secured when Jack helps his new pal in a two-on-one fight to the death with a green moray eel, an octopus's worst enemy. As Jack explores the wonder and beauty of the thriving and plentiful sea life surrounding him, Armstrong tells him a story from his youth when he saw a wooden ship resting on the ocean floor hidden away in a deep, dark cavern. Jack immediately recognizes that this find could be "one of the greatest maritime discoveries in history," and the pair have a new mission: to find the old wooden sailing ship. It turns out, Armstrong is a walking—er, swimming—encyclopedia of knowledge about the vast multitude of marine life. Along their journey, Jack learns from Armstrong that a sea lily is not a plant but an animal and has been around for more than 400 million years; a torpedo ray can give a terrible electric shock of two hundred volts; an olive-green sea snake has a venomous bite ten times more powerful than a king cobra's; and barrel sponges can live more than 2,000 years. But the most important fact that Armstrong shares with Jack is that the ocean has a critical symbiosis among its living creatures that helps to maintain nature's fragile balance: all have their purpose. As Jack and Armstrong close in on the location of the relic lost ship, they are confronted with a deadly earthquake, a treacherous marine trench, unpleasant animal strife, and a collapsing cave. But this is nothing compared to the most dangerous encounter of all: humans. The fate of this historic archaeological discovery is in the hands—and arms—of Jack and his new friend...if they can outwit and outpace the villainous treasure hunters before it's too late. Author Jeff Lucas did extensive research and consulted with a marine biologist for the facts and accuracy of The Lost Ship. A portion of the book's proceeds will be donated to The Nature Conservancy, whose mission is to conserve the lands and waters throughout the world.

ATF: 1.3 Million Silencers in U.S. Rarely Used in Crimes
Only 44 silencer-related crimes each year
Knox Williams, president of the American Suppressor Association, attaches a silencer to a long gun / AP
Stephen Gutowski - February 17, 2017 5:00 AM
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) released statistics to the Washington Free Beacon on Wednesday showing that the nearly 1.3 million silencers registered in the United States are rarely used in crimes.
"As of 02-03-2017, there are 1,297,670 suppressors registered with ATF under the National Firearms Act," Justice Department spokesman Dillon McConnell told the Free Beacon.

2020 Man of the Year: MAGA Larry David
That number is an increase of nearly 400,000 registered silencers since the same time last year, when ATF records indicated there were 902,805 silencers in the country.
The ATF confirmed that silencers are rarely used in crimes despite their explosion in popularity. The agency has only recommended prosecutions for 44 silencer-related crimes per year over the past decade. That means roughly .003 percent of silencers are used in crimes each year. Of those 44 crimes per year, only 6 involved defendants with prior felony convictions.
In an internal memo leaked to the Washington Post last week, ATF Associate Deputy Director Ronald Turk argued that silencers should be deregulated due to the low rate at which they are used in crimes. Currently silencers are regulated by the restrictive National Firearms Act, which also regulates machine guns.
"Consistent with this low number of prosecution referrals, silencers are very rarely used in criminal shootings," Turk wrote. "Given the lack of criminality associated with silencers, it is reasonable to conclude that they should not be viewed as a threat to public safety necessitating [National Firearms Act] classification, and should be considered for reclassification under the [Gun Control Act]."
Turk said the popularity of silencers combined with paperwork required by the National Firearms Act is bogging down the ATF and causing months-long wait times for gun owners across the country.
"ATF's processing time is now approximately 8 months," he wrote. "ATF has devoted substantial resources in attempts to reduce processing times, spending over $1 million annually in overtime and temporary duty expenses, and dedicating over 33 additional full-time and contract positions since 2011 to support NFA processing. Despite these efforts, [National Firearms Act] processing times are widely viewed by applicants and the industry as far too long, resulting in numerous complaints to Congress. Since silencers account for the vast majority of NFA applications, the most direct way to reduce processing times is to reduce the number of silencer applications."
Congressional Republicans and gun rights activists have made silencer deregulation a top priority. The Hearing Protection Act, which would remove silencers from the purview of the National Firearms Act, was introduced in both chambers of Congress in January. Activists have expressed excitement about the prospect that it may become law.
The National Rifle Association, which supports the bill, said the ATF's numbers show that silencers should be deregulated.
"Every year more than a million hunters and recreational shooters are staving off potential hearing loss with the safe and responsible use of suppressors," NRA spokesperson Lars Dalseide said. "This is a protection every law-abiding gun owner has the right to enjoy, and the ATF numbers back that up."
Gun control activists like Stacey Radnor, spokeswoman for Everytown for Gun Safety, say the numbers show that strict regulation of silencers has kept them from being used in crimes.
"Removing silencers from the National Firearms Act would undermine the law's success—the use of silencers in crime is rare, further underscoring the fact that the NFA currently works to keep silencers out of dangerous hands," Radnor said.
The Hearing Protection Act has been referred to the House Judiciary Committee and the Senate Committee on Finance. It is currently awaiting hearings.

Today we celebrate all the saints; we are remembering people we have loved who have died. The loss may be recent for some, or just as poignant now as at that first moment. What helps you in your grief? Has someone handed you a tissue or helped you wipe away tears? People have done that for me. The feeling I get is a little embarrassment, and a lot of companionship.
Today's reading is a description of one scene in the Revelation to John. He sees people from every nation and tribe and language group. They have all come to God after a time of great turmoil and distress. And God shelters them with His presence. God feeds them and guides them, and wipes away every tear.
What a hope-filled message that is! God is present and He sees both our needs and our sorrows. God even soothes my embarrassment at being caught in a vulnerable moment. With God as our companion through grief, our souls can relax and enjoy His peace.
Let us pray. O, ever-present God, we thank you for your companionship through times of grief and sorrow. We marvel at the helpers you have directed towards us in our times of need so that we can feel your presence through them. Amen.

HOME Romanian couses for foreign managers and their families Course types
Interview with his Excellency Mr. Anders Bengtcen, The Ambassador of Sweden in Romania
His Excellency Mr. Anders Bengtcen, the Ambassador of Sweden, who will be concluding his mandate in August, talks about his experience of learning Romanian with International House and the way he sees Romania after living here for almost 4 years.
THE METHOD INTERNATIONAL HOUSE
The method International House has been using since its beginning and which makes us unique on the Romanian as a Foreign Language market is based on the exclusive use of Romanian during the teaching process. Therefore, no intermediary language is used, which makes for a fast and extremely efficient way of learning. The use of stimulating visual and audio course materials serves to permanently expose the student to the language in its naturally occurring form. First and foremost, International House emphasises the benefits of conversation, thus encouraging and challenging students to express themselves more in order to become efficient and proficient language users in a short period of time. Our goal is to make our students become better able to communicate fluently in everyday life, but we also adapt our courses to the specific needs of each individual student (e.g. specialised language: business, diplomacy etc.)
In choosing a course for the foreign managers, the HR manager must firstly take into account the teacher's capacity to design an attractive and motivating course for the participant in question. Unfortunately, we have often encountered expats who complained that their previous trainers hadn't managed to teach them our language in a more attractive manner – studying a relatively difficult foreign language (such as Romanian, especially for the expats whose native language is not of Latin origin) in a dull way, with an excessive focus on grammar, can be too tedious. Thus, the lessons for the expat are not as useful as expected if his interest is lost within the first two sessions. "Happy learners are effective learners" – it's the motto which guides the teachers at International House in preparing and teaching a lesson of Romanian language. How do we motivate a top-level manager to study our language, how do we design a lesson which has this effect: "Cool, when is the next lesson?"
The general characteristics of a Romanian language course:
The length of a course module: 60 hours;
The length of a course session: 1h 30 min or 2h;
Number of sessions per week: two (in the case of intensive courses, the schedule can be modified);
The time interval corresponding to completing a course module: depending on the length of the course session and its frequency, a module can last between two weeks and five months.
The location where the course takes place: at the client's head office or at the IH Executive Center in the Tineretului area;
At the end of the course, every student will receive a certificate which attests the completion of a module, or a diploma after successfully completing a level.

Howdy and happy Memorial Day!
I wanted to show you guys some of the thousands amazing pictures I took yesterday during Bike the Drive, an event where Active Transportation Alliance shuts down Lake Shore Drive for cyclists from all over! Harry and I couldn't remember why we didn't do this event last year, but I had just moved in, so I'm sure we were swamped with other activities. :) Regardless, I'm definitely tickled that I got to experience this!
Parking wasn't horrible. Period. We parked about two blocks away from the starting point, and you can't beat that in the Chi.
We headed South on the Drive, and hit up the turnaround after about seven miles. I got some great shots along the way.
Don't worry: Harry and I were going very slow.
Here's the turnaround point, where they provided a rest area with light snacks, refreshments, and bike mechanics. We didn't stop, but looped around and headed back North.
My Bike the Drive selfie. You can see Harry in my sunglasses, haha!
We passed the starting point and continued heading North. Harry really wanted me to see the hill that went down toward Oak Street Beach. This picture does it no justice whatsoever for the "WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" factor! You cannot get this experience or this view on the lakefront trail.
We followed the 'S' curve, and hit up the first exit we could find to loop back around. They had started shutting down various exits on the North side, and we still had to get back up that hill. Not to mention, Harry and I hadn't really trained for this event. I figured it was only 20 to 30 miles, and that my booty could handle it. Harry's tooshie, on the other hand, isn't as used to the saddle as mine.
Heading back South toward the hill, and the starting point where the after party was, woot woot!
We finished right around 19.50 miles. We really could've gone the full 30, but without any training on our leggies or bums over the harsh winter, we kept the distance and pace down. Plus, we just wanted to enjoy this!
We walked thorough the festivities, and to be honest, we didn't plan this out very well. We could've valeted our bikes, instead of walking around with them, and I could've brought different shoes, rather than walking around in my clips. We checked things out and decided that we wanted to find someplace to nom and re-fuel.
Upon doing a search for "wonuts", Harry found a spot less than a mile away from where we were parked downtown. Waffles Cafe looked like just the thing we needed, especially considering we got a primetime parking spot right in front of it, and there was less than a five-minute wait (ON THE SUNDAY MORNING OF A HUGE EVENT, AND A HOLIDAY WEEKEND!). Sign, much?
After getting home, taking a nap, and just hanging out with the Kid, we decided we would end our day with some Josi's Frozen Yogurt. Gah. I don't think we'll ever get sick of this place.
As you can see, I was having a severe chocolate attack. Side note: Harry got basically the same thing as I did.
Um. How rude. You were a block away from me and I hear NOTHING??? Just rude. I was going to meet Gabi from Lean Green Island Girl and do some of BTD but we ended up having friends come in and they left just around that time. We should have taken them to Waffles! I approve of your selections, and so glad that you had a great time!
The weather this year was nothing short of amazing for this event. Glad you enjoyed it!
It was so perfect out! And even though I slathered myself in sunscreen, I got a nice little glowy tan. :) That never happened in Texas!

Universities Are Banning TikTok on Their Campuses. Here's Why
Public universities across the U.S. are banning their students' beloved TikTok app from their schools. In some cases, this means no students, faculty members, staff, or
visitors are able to access the short-form video platform on school devices or on the campus WiFi networks. At least 20 public universities have made the decision to ban
the app from their servers or have recommended their students to remove the app from their personal devices, according to NBC News. Most of the universities are acting under
pressure from state lawmakers—some of whom have passed laws banning TikTok from state-owned devices. Auburn University, University of Oklahoma, University of Texas-Austin,
and Texas A&M—the biggest college campus in the U.S.—are among the growing list. Why universities are banning TikTok The bans stem from security concerns regarding the
app's China-based parent company ByteDance. U.S. security experts are worried ByteDance could share its extensive collection of data on American users with the Chinese
government. "We do have national security concerns," said FBI Director Christopher Wray at a Homeland Security Committee hearing in November. "They include the possibility
that the Chinese government could use it to control data collection on millions of users."


1. We have never really been in control. And we are not meant to be.
2. God is and He has always been the best at that.
My painting is the full moon reflecting on the water. We are the moon. God is the sun. We simply reflect His goodness. We don't hold the power to light the world. God does. We get to reflect it. That's cool. But it's not the power source. The moon goes dark when the sun doesn't shine upon it. That'a good reminder to me. I'm not in control. I'm nothing at all without Him. I go dark without His light. The verse grounds me in the truth.
The switch plate is a reminder that God takes brokenness and creates something new. He invites us to loosen our grip and let go of our false sense of control and let Him take charge. He wants to take our messy, broken lives and put them back together in a new and beautiful way. These broken vintage dishes were no longer good for serving food. But they become a sweet conversation piece for farmhouse bedroom or a crisp, clean kitchen. God wastes nothing. He wants to give us His best. For some reason, we won't let Him. How about we let Him?

Alma Wade jest główną postacią serii gier F.E.A.R., a jednocześnie przedmiotem badań Projektu Origin. Wokół niej toczy się główna fabuła wszystkich części serii.

Swoje imię zawdzięcza prawdopodobnie postaci Almy Mobley z noweli Petera Strauba Upiorna Opowieść.

Życiorys
Alma jest córką Harlana Wade, naukowca pracującego dla ATC (Armacham Technology Corporation). Od wczesnych lat dzieciństwa przejawiała pewne zdolności parapsychologiczne, do których zaliczało się odbieranie negatywnych emocji ludzi. W wieku 3 lat została włączona do prowadzonego przez ATC Projektu Paragon, który miał na celu wykrycie u dzieci specjalnych zdolności umysłowych. Alma zdawała wszystkie testy aż do wieku lat około 5. Wtedy też, jak się później okazało, celowo zaczęła wszystkie testy oblewać. Wkrótce po tym pracownicy ATC zaczęli cierpieć na częste zachwiania nastroju, deliria oraz koszmary. Stało się jasnym, iż są oni obiektem ataków Almy. ATC podjęło działania które miały na celu dalsze badania nad Almą przy jednoczesnym uniemożliwieniu jej krzywdzenia pracowników korporacji.

W wieku 7 lat została włączona do Projektu Origin. Na dwa dni przed jej 8 urodzinami została umieszczona w Krypcie, dużej sferycznej konstrukcji mającej na celu ograniczenie jej parapsychicznych zdolności. Przebywając w niej była nieprzytomna. W czasie trwania prac nad projektem była dwukrotnie sztucznie zapładniana. Pierwsze dziecko urodziła w wieku 15 lat, następne rok później. W czasie obydwu porodów odzyskiwała przytomność. Podczas porodu pierwszego dziecka (który obserwujemy z perspektywy nowo narodzonego dziecka w filmiku na początku pierwszej części gry) słyszymy paniczny krzyk Almy, która nie chce pogodzić się z utratą dziecka.

Kiedy drugie dziecko – Paxton Fettel osiągnęło wiek 7 lat, Alma połączyła się z jego umysłem (wywołując synchronicity event, w wyniku czego Paxton zabił kilku pracowników ATC). Spowodowało to zamknięcie Projektu Origin. Systemy podtrzymujące życie Almy zostały wyłączone, w wyniku czego sześć dni później jej funkcje życiowe ustały. Alma zmarła mając 26 lat.

Jednak uśmiercenie ciała Almy wcale nie rozwiązało problemu. Jakiś czas później po raz kolejny połączyła się umysłem z Paxtonem, uwalniając go z jego celi i polecając zemstę za jej krzywdy (przemawiając do niego słowami: Zabij ich. Zabij ich wszystkich). Fettel przejmuje kontrolę nad armią klonów (które to zresztą były klonami jej pierwszego dziecka) i morduje wszystkich którzy stoją mu na drodze (czyli głównie naukowców i ochroniarzy ATC, oddziały F.E.A.R. oraz Delta). Jego głównym celem jest zaś uwolnienie Almy z krypty.

W tym czasie sama Alma również częściowo podejmuje zemstę. Objawiając się jako mała dziewczynka w czerwonej sukience z bosymi stopami (prawdopodobnie ośmioletnia) morduje członków ATC, albo poprzez wywoływanie zapłonów i eksplozji, albo bezpośrednio oddziałując na ich ciało rozrywając ich od środka bądź rozsmarowując po ścianach, albo doprowadzając do szaleństwa poprzez różne wizje. Próbuje również (bezskutecznie) zabić swojego pierwszego syna, którego celem jest uśmiercenia Paxtona, co zresztą udaje mu się.

Mimo to Alma zostaje uwolniona przez jej ojca, którego w przypływie złości zabija. Ucieka z podziemnego kompleksu, w którym była przetrzymywana. Od tej pory możemy obserwować dwie jej wizje: zarówno ośmioletniej dziewczynki w czerwonej sukience, jak i dorosłej, nagiej kobiety, jednakże w tym wypadku ciężko jest stwierdzić, czy mamy do czynienia z jej cielesną postacią, czy też z kolejną wizją.

Po uwolnieniu stara się zabić swego pierwszego syna. Ten jednak ucieka z podziemnego kompleksu i dociera na powierzchnię. W tym momencie następuje wybuch w kompleksie badawczym. Na ratunek głównemu bohaterowi przybywa resztka oddziału Delta, która została wysłana razem z F.E.A.R. w celu odbicia budynku ATC z rąk armii Repliki. Helikopter, którym odlatują zostaje strącony przez Almę która dostała się na jego pokład. W czasie podróży bohatera do punktu ewakuacyjnego z jednej strony dalej chce go zabić, a z drugiej pomaga mu, oczyszczając jego drogę z żołnierzy Repliki. Ożywia również Paxtona, który ponownie steruje wojskiem klonów. Alma zabija oboje z towarzyszy bohatera, którzy razem z nim przeżyli katastrofę śmigłowca.

Podczas wydarzeń z drugiej części gry Alma pokazuje się głównie w swej dorosłej formie. Wiele razy psychicznie i fizycznie atakuje głównego bohatera (jest nim Michael Becket), którego wyczuwa z racji jego potencjału parapsychicznego. Mimo iż mogłaby go bez wysiłku zgładzić, nie robi tego, a jedynie nasyła na niego swoje zjawy oraz rzuca się na niego, lecz dość łatwo daje się odepchnąć. Pod koniec gry opętuje jego towarzysza, Keegana. Przejmuje kontrolę nad resztkami oddziału repliki, gdy oddział Backeta próbuje dostać się na Still Island aby użyć Amplifikatora Telepatycznego w celu zniszczenia Almy. Plany te zostają jednak pokrzyżowane przez Genevieve Aristide – prezes ATC, która zabija Stokes i wyłącza Amplifikator. Wtedy też Alma przybywa do komory, po czym po wprowadzeniu Becketa w jedną ze swoich wizji odbywa z nim stosunek seksualny. Po tym fakcie Becket traci przytomność. Po jej odzyskaniu widzimy Almę w zaawansowanej ciąży, która przykłada rękę Becketa do swego brzucha, jednoznacznie pokazując czyje dziecko nosi. Scena ta odbywa się cały czas w komorze Amplifikatora, jednakże otacza go pożoga. Na razie nie można jednoznacznie określić czy dzieje się to naprawdę (czy Becket był nieprzytomny przez dłuższy czas, kiedy to Alma miałaby w tym stopniu zniszczyć otoczenie i jednocześnie donosić płód do tego stadium rozwoju) czy jest to jedynie wizja.

Q: Customising form rows in a collection form field I am trying to customise a specific form row in my form layout. From the symfony cookbook it tells me, if i understand correctly, that I can modify the form by adding a code block in my form theme file.
I am adding the field to the form like this:
->add('editions', 'collection',
    array('type' => new EditionType(),
        'allow_add' => true,
        'allow_delete' => true,
        'by_reference' => false,
    )
)

I generate the form rows in the template in the following way, I need the data-prototype tag because the user needs to possibility to add an edition when viewing the form:

{% for edition in form.editions %}

        {{ form_label(edition.isbn) }}
        {{ form_errors(edition.isbn) }}
        {{ form_widget(edition.isbn) }}

{% endfor %}

To customise the rows for the 'editions' fields I tried the following:

{% block textarea_label %}
    {% spaceless %}

        {{ label }}

    {% endspaceless %}
{% endblock %}

{% block _booklist_editions_label %}
    {% spaceless %}

        {{ label }}!

    {% endspaceless %}
{% endblock %}

Unfortunately the second block isn't working, the first block however does work. What I did notice is that the outer div from the editions field does not have an id attribute with the field name in it.
This makes me think that the solution to the problem could be one of these:

*

*Custom form theme block has the wrong name, don't know what other name I should give it then.

*The id's is not added to the outer div, therefor it's not 'linking' the custom form style.

Could someone explain me how I can add a custom form theme to my 'editions' field using an external form theme file or how I can achieve this in another way.

– in the House of Lords at 11:06 am on 13th September 2018.
To ask Her Majesty's Government what is the youngest age at which a child has been authorised to act as a covert human intelligence source under section 29 of the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000.
My Lords, there are no national statistics currently available relating to the authorisation of juvenile CHISs. However, the Home Office has been made aware of academic research into the use of juvenile CHISs which contains a number of case studies. They include the age of the juvenile CHIS, the youngest of whom is 15 years of age.
I thank the Minister for her reply. I had hoped that the Home Office would itself start recording the names and ages of these children, who are vulnerable young criminals who have been caught by the police and are then put straight back into criminal gangs to act as spies. Will the noble Baroness please commit the Home Office to keeping a proper record of these children—their names, ages and the serious crimes for which they have been arrested before being sent back into these gangs?
I certainly will not undertake to commit the Home Office to giving the names of these individuals, because that would breach data protection laws. However, the Investigatory Powers Commissioner recently wrote to the Joint Committee on Human Rights with an estimate of how many children we are talking about. He estimates that there are fewer than 10 at any one time. He has now undertaken to collect statistics on the number of juvenile CHISs in place and will consider how that information and his oversight in this area can be appropriately included in his annual reports in the future.
My Lords, the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child states that the interests of the child must be paramount in all decisions and actions that affect children. When the Government recently decided to weaken the safeguards on using child informants, despite the environment in which they operate becoming more dangerous, they consulted the people who use these child informants but not one organisation or individual that is responsible for their welfare. Can the Minister explain how this is putting the needs of the child first?
I absolutely dispute what the noble Lord has said because, far from weakening the safeguards, we have strengthened them by ensuring that the appropriate adult is someone who is professionally qualified to take on the role. The UK ensures that the principles of the convention are considered and realised through the approach taken, both in the legislation and in other measures, to ensure that children's rights and interests are safeguarded.
My Lords, can my noble friend tell me how the current legislation affects the keeping by local authorities of lists of children at risk of non-accidental injury and their passing of that information about those individuals to other local authorities when those children move into their areas of responsibility?
As I am sure my noble friend will know, where there are safeguarding issues around children, information is shared, and certainly if the child moves from one local authority area to another. As the IPC has pointed out, the duty of care in the case of these children is absolutely paramount.
Would the Minister reflect that one possible way of alleviating understandable concerns about the use of young people in the way that is currently under discussion would be to extend the oversight and authorisation responsibilities of the judicial commissioners of the IPC?
I thank the noble and learned Lord for our conversation on this matter. Of course, that would require a change in the legislation, but we consider that this enhanced authorisation, which has been in place for 18 years and approved under the leadership of successive Governments, is robust. It is subject to enhanced safeguards and strong and effective oversight. It should command confidence.
My Lords, can the Minister tell the House how the safety of the child is ensured when they are put in these dangerous situations where serious criminality is suspected of taking place? That can include the children providing information about their parents and other close family members to the authorities.
The noble Lord asks the right question. The child's safety remains paramount. Enhanced risk assessments are required before the CHIS is tasked and are reviewed and updated throughout the duration of an authorisation. They are also updated after an authorisation is cancelled where contact with the CHIS is maintained. In the case of children aged 16 to 17, the law recognises that these assessments must be done on a case-by-case basis. Therefore, the presence of a responsible adult may or may not be required at that stage.
My Lords, when these assessments are made of child informants, can my noble friend confirm whether an appropriate adult or guardian is part of that process? Can she also confirm whether the safeguards that we have in place for child informants in the United Kingdom apply equally to informants overseas?
I cannot answer the latter part of that question, but I will write to the noble Baroness. If a child is aged under 16, an appropriate adult—though not necessarily a guardian, because there may be conflict in that relationship—will be present in every case. Children aged between 16 and 18 are assessed on a case-by-case basis.
My Lords, even with all the safeguards mentioned by the Minister, is this not still exploitation of children?
The noble Baroness asks a very pertinent question. This is not a comfortable or easy arrangement. She will know, of course, that it was brought in by the Labour Government in 2000. With the safeguards that are in place and the work that needs to be undertaken, all these things are taken into consideration.
My Lords, would my noble friend agree that it is overwhelmingly in the interest of the child that he or she should grow up in a society in which crime is reduced? That is the purpose of the measures that are being undertaken.
My noble friend puts it absolutely succinctly and correctly: the overall aim is that children should grow up in a society free of crime.
