Las Vegas killing reports leave Facebook and YouTube trail -- for now

"There�s much that does not add up to the narrative portrayal being formed, and there will be time as the story unravels to determine what is factual and what has been 'leaping to illusions.' Perhaps following these links will provide clues to help with that."
Despite media reports, killers turned away from Bundy ranch say eyewitnesses
�'Just got off the phone with Jerry Delemus, the head of the outer security operation the day that these folks were turned away,' Vanderboegh reported. �These people looked to me like the couple we turned away and Jerry confirmed it. He is positive on the ID."
War Gear Flows to Police Departments
Inside the municipal garage of this small lakefront city, parked next to the hefty orange snowplow, sits an even larger truck, this one painted in desert khaki. Weighing 30 tons and built to withstand land mines, the armored combat vehicle is one of hundreds showing up across the country, in police departments big and small.
The 9-foot-tall armored truck was intended for an overseas battlefield. But as President Obama ushers in the end of what he called America�s �long season of war,� the former tools of combat � M-16 rifles, grenade launchers, silencers and more � are ending up in local police departments, often with little public notice.

National campaign seeks to ban guns in stores

Many 'open carry' advocates claim they're just asserting their second amendment rights, but now an advocacy group with a strong presence in Michigan is pushing back.
An organization called 'Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America' is speaking out against open carry and what they consider the dangers of it.
Kristen Moore, a Michigan representative of the company says the main concern is that there is no proof those who openly carry have any formal training, unlike those who carry a concealed weapon.
The organization has collected more than 150-thousand signatures in order to persuade companies to prohibit open carry inside its stores.
GA: Carter hears gripes about gun law during campaign stop
en. Jason Carter was in rural southwest Georgia to talk about health care. But during a panel discussion, a local schoolteacher complained about the gun law that Carter supported and the legislature passed this spring. And so did Bill Massee, the mayor of Marshallville, Georgia, who complained the gun law made his city hall less safe because his town can't afford to buy metal detectors.
MS: Mississippi Navy SEAL Shooting Appealed to Supreme Court
Ghane joined the Navy in June 2004 and entered SEAL training in November 2004 in Coronado, California. He joined the West Coast SEAL teams in June 2007.
Ghane�s mother, Narjess Ghane, filed the lawsuit in 2009 against Mid-South. She argued the wall through which the bullet passed was not bulletproof as intended. Mid-South built the wall for the training exercise.
Ed.: Since when are walls bullet-proof?
Self-Defense Won't Fix the College Sexual Assault Epidemic
During the question-and-answer portion of the Miss USA pageant, 24-year-old Miss Nevada Nia Sanchez, who took home the crown, said she believed some colleges might sweep campus rape under the rug to prevent bad press. Sanchez, a fourth degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do, added, "more awareness [of the issue] is very important so that women can learn to protect themselves � You need to be confident and be able to defend yourself. That's something we need to start to implement for a lot of women."
Miss USA Suggests Self-Defense for Women, Twitter Loses It
I hate to be the one to inform these women, but �don�t rape� is already on the curriculum.
According to feminists, women shouldn�t need to defend themselves against rape, and that�s true. People shouldn�t need to defend themselves against murder, theft, or terrorist attacks either. It�s horrific that people commit these crimes, and in a perfect world they wouldn�t. But rapists and murderers and terrorists are a fact of life. It�s not that the messaging campaigns around these issues aren�t effective; it�s that there are terrible people in this world.
OH: Police: Fatal shooting may be self-defense
A fatal shooting in Northside on Sunday evening could be a case of self-defense, a Cincinnati police spokeswoman said Monday morning.
Sgt. Lisa Davis, acting public information officer for Cincinnati police, said the Hamilton County Prosecutor's Office is reviewing the case.
The man taken into custody after the shooting at the intersection of Chase Avenue and Cherry Street has not been charged.
David Wheeldon, 41, was pronounced dead at the scene of the 6:22 p.m. attack.
OH: Security guard won't be indicted for shooting trucker
The Love's Travel Stop security guard who shot and killed an unarmed truck driver will not be indicted, a Montgomery County grand jury ruled.
The Montgomery County Prosecutor's Office announced Monday that neither Joshua Karp, 25, nor anyone else would face charges in the death of 48-year-old Goran Sojic. Karp fired multiple times at Sojic on Dec. 8, 2013 at the new truck stop on Edwin C. Moses Boulevard.
A press release from the prosecutor's office said that Sojic, "while speaking a foreign language, charged at an armed, uniformed security guard behind the enclosed cash register area, and refused his commands to stop, which caused the security guard to fear for his life, as well as the safety of others inside the establishment."
Esquire: Police Who Support NRA Are Traitors 'to the Uniform'
On June 9, Esquire columnist Charles P. Pierce addressed the Las Vegas attack that killed two police officers by criticizing law enforcement's support of the NRA positions on guns. He went so far as to state that a police officer who has an NRA sticker on his personal car window is a "traitor to the uniform."
Conservative Feminism: Truly Empowering Women
Miss USA 2014, Nia Sanchez (Nevada), just so happens to be a fourth-degree black belt in taekwondo, and liberal feminists are not too happy about it. Cosmo editor Elisa Benson responded with this tweet: �I get that the college sexual assault problem can't be solved in 30 secs but still icky to pretend like self defense is the answer.� The Huffington Post�s very own Mandy Velez (editor) tweeted: �Let's hope Nevada uses her media tour to reiterate that teaching girls self defense is NOT the best way to protect against assault.� This is not a new conversation.
Antigovernment Obsession Preceded Las Vegas Shootings
Before 6 on Sunday morning, just hours before they killed two police officers and a civilian in a display of antigovernment violence, Jerad and Amanda Miller left their two beloved cats with Kelley Fielder, the next-door neighbor with whom they had been staying. Ms. Miller, 22, promised to return later. Mr. Miller, 31, did not. He gave Ms. Fielder a tearful hug, and said, �I got to do what I got to do.�
� �The revolution has begun� � that�s what he kept saying,� Ms. Fielder said Monday. �All Jerad wanted to do is talk about overthrowing the government. I thought he was talking smack.�
Six Falsehoods Pushed By Bloomberg�s Gun Control Apparatchiks
On �Meet the Press� earlier this month, Michael Bloomberg claimed that what he is doing �is nothing about gun control.� But host David Gregory, acting as a cheerleader, not a probing questioner, let that statement go unchallenged. Unfortunately, Bloomberg is used to overwhelmingly uncritical media coverage.
Bloomberg, who is currently spending $50 million per year on his various gun control organizations, has pushed for everything from assault weapon bans, magazine size limits, gun-free zones, fees on people buying ammunition or guns, and a long list of other regulations. He now wants to convince us that he is very reasonable.
TX: Open Carry Texas: Judge for yourself
Texas isn't as gun friendly as its reputation suggests. I started Open Carry Texas to spread this message. The reason our members openly carry rifles and shotguns is because Texas law permits that, but not the open carry of handguns. We think the Texas law should change to allow open carry of any legal firearm.
As part of our mission, we have worked to remove the stigma of guns in society. The gun-control lobby engages in emotional brainwashing to further its attempts at disarming the American people. Open carry of firearms has been proven to deter crime, which is why we believe it is so important.
Fight like a girl! Katie Pavlich has a question for �self-defense is icky� Cosmo editor
Damn straight! As Twitchy reported, Cosmopolitan editor Elisa Benson does not think so. You see, self-defense as a form of protection against sexual assault is just �icky.� Such asinine �feminist� freak-outs began after Miss Nevada suggested that women learn how to defend themselves. You know, actual empowerment.
CA: Fatal Shooting Of Octogenarian Fuels Concern Over SWAT Team Drug Raids
According to Algorri, sheriff�s deputies initially said they first encountered Mallory in the hallway wielding a gun and stumbling toward them. They later changed the story, Algorri said, when the bloodstains on the mattress indicated Mallory was in bed at the time of the shooting.
Investigators also found that the audio recording of the raid indicated a discrepancy in Bones� account. Before listening to the recording, he believed that he told Mallory to �Drop the gun� before the shooting. The recording revealed, however, that the command came immediately after Bones opened fire.
NJ: New Jersey Second Amendment Society Summer Social Featuring Alan Gottlieb
The New Jersey Second Amendment Society ( NJ2AS ) is proud to present Mr. Alan Gottlieb, the Executive Director of the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and Chairman of the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA).
Alan will be the featured speaker at this year�s New Jersey Second Amendment Society SUMMER SOCIAL to be held at the Mansion in Brick, NJ.
CA: What can keep guns from mentally ill?
The top priority, though, has to be preservation of human life. In the last 14 years, there have been more mass killings of the Newtown/Isla Vista/Virginia Tech sort in this country than in the rest of the world combined. The vast majority of lives taken came via shootings.
Which means something is amiss. Does that mean no person in psychotherapy should have a gun? Does it mean police should have the right to question every gun owner?
Probably not. But if mental illness is the common denominator in mass killings from the Texas Tower to Newtown, Columbine and Isla Vista, then it's high time to make it much harder for the mentally ill to acquire firearms of any kind, no matter how carefully laws doing this must be crafted.
Justice Dept to Survey Federal Agencies for Guns, Ammo
The Justice Department plans to take an inventory of all the federal agencies whose agents are authorized to carry weapons and make arrests.
The move is apparently aimed at calming Second Amendment activists' fears about gun and ammunition buys by the likes of the U.S. Postal Service and the Department of Agriculture (USDA).
The research will be conducted by the Bureau of Justice Statistics. It's not clear when the report will be ready for public viewing.
"It's certainly proper for every agency to have an accurate accounting of what firearms it has," said Dave Workman, communications director for the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms.
DC: Post-Heller D.C. Continues to Experience Historically Low Homicides
Criminologists, sociologists, and economists can debate the reasons D.C. has witnessed such a transformation, but three things are clear. First, the District�s worst years for homicide were experienced under the unconstitutional Firearms Control Regulations Act of 1975, which banned new handguns. Second, homicides, which were already trending downward, continued to plummet following the 2008 Heller decision that overturned the city�s handgun ban. Third, predictions about the catastrophic outcome of recognizing Second Amendment rights for D.C. residents have been proven, in the intervening six years, to be unfounded hysterics.
WA: Las Vegas cop killer had ties to eastern Washington, newspaper says
The man who, along with his wife, allegedly fatally shot two Las Vegas police officers yesterday, before she shot a legally-armed private citizen who tried to intervene, apparently has a criminal history in Benton County dating back to 2000-2002, the Las Vegas Review Journal is reporting today.
Jerad Dwain Miller and his wife, Amanda, simultaneously gunned down officers Alyn Beck and Igor Soldo in a pizza restaurant in Las Vegas. The couple then went across the parking lot into a Walmart where Jerad was confronted by 31-year-old Joseph Robert Wilcox, who was legally armed.
It will be of little avail to the people that the laws are made by men of their own choice if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood. �JAMES MADISON

Creating 2.2-metre tall bronze statue using 3D printing technology
Working with the London Bronze Casting Company, the UK arm of voxeljet brought their 3D printing expertise to help produce 'The Green Man' – a project to commemorate the foundry that formerly operated in Deptford, London where he now stands. The form and shape of the statue is based on foundry worker, Bill.
The 2,2 metre tall Green Man was created using 3D printed investment casting patterns.
To create the part, Sally and Vince (technicians at London Bronze Casting) 3D scanned Bill using a photogrammetry technique. The data was then manipulated in a variety of CAD programs to produce a final digital finish and look.
The figure of Bill carries two cast impellers (a rotor used to increase the pressure and flow of a fluid), a fitting reminder of the products that were formerly made on the site.
The 3D model was digitally split into the casting sections and 3D printed in PMMA on a voxeljet VX1000 PPB printer at our manufacturing facility in Milton Keynes, UK. PMMA is an acrylic material used in lost wax casting process. The PMMA print sections were then invested in a ceramic shell and cast in bronze.
The form itself was printed and then processed at London Bronze Casting, a foundry focused on research, innovation and craft to produce the final statue standing 2.2m tall and weighing 200kg.
After the assembly, welding & metalwork, a green patina was applied to transform the brown tone of the raw cast into a vivid Verdigris, a colour that all foundry workers turn by the end of a working day. Bill is the first ever PMMA-cast public sculpture in the UK.
Tom Winstanley, London Bronze Casting Company, says: "It's a great moment for foundry in the art industry and design world, because artists and designers are quite curious about new technologies and they're using computer aided designs and sculpting software more than ever before. Artists can collect and scan 3D objects and manipulate them like no other material without limits. voxeljet are very diligent and have a lot of time for us, just that noticing of what we need from the casting and the detail within all the projects has resulted in a great collaboration."
James Reeves, voxeljet UK, says: "What I really like about the Green Man Project, is that it brings a digital aspect to a very analogue statue. It uses a traditional method of casting, but it's using the very latest technology to create it."

The extraordinary season will continue with five musically diverse concerts each starring some of the most celebrated headliners in the music industry today.

In passing the torch to Dean Berg, the 2016-2017 season promises to reach the high standards of musicality and diversity that has become the mainstay of the concert and educational series that has established the Arsht Center as one of the most recognized concert halls in the world for jazz. Shelly has long been part of our JAZZ ROOTS family and we are excited to welcome him as our new artistic advisor," said John Richard, president and CEO of the Arsht Center.
"Larry and I shared so many visions over our many years of friendship and working together, most notably our love of jazz, educating young people about jazz and creating an awareness among the masses about the roots of America's true art form. While I am so saddened he is no longer with us both personally and professionally, I am honored the Arsht Center has entrusted me to take the helm of the extraordinary program he set forth. I look forward to paying tribute to Larry in our opening concert and presenting all the exciting shows we have scheduled this upcoming season," said Dean Shelly Berg, JAZZ ROOTS artistic advisor.
Among Dean Berg's numerous outstanding achievements: he is a four-time GRAMMY nominee and was named one of the "educators of the millennium" by the Los Angeles Times.

Acclaimed vocalist Valerie Simpson co-wrote such classic hits as "Ain't No Mountain High Enough," "You're All I Need to Get By," "Reach Out and Touch Somebody's Hand" and "Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing" as half of the songwriting/performing/producing entity Ashford and Simpson. She recently released a new solo album, Dinosaurs Are Coming Back Again. Together these four remarkable artists will put fresh spins on holiday classics as well as other selections that beautifully capture the spirit of the season.
JAZZ ROOTS: JAZZ AT LINCOLN CENTER ORCHESTRA WITH WYNTON MARSALIS
January 20, 2017 at 8 p.m.
Under Wynton Marsalis' direction, the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra performs a repertoire across the full jazz spectrum - from the music's New Orleans roots to bebop to modern jazz. In its stunning performances, the orchestra showcases new compositions and arrangements by Marsalis, members of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra and jazz contemporaries. The orchestra may also perform the unique repertoire for which it is world-renowned: modern renditions of traditional favorites including tunes by Thelonious Monk; classic Blue Note Records selections by Herbie Hancock, Joe Henderson, Jackie McLean, Lee Morgan, Joe Henderson; and selections from the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra's 2015 album release, Live in Cuba.
JAZZ ROOTS: PIANO TITANS: CHICK COREA & GONZALO RUBALCABA, SOLOS &
February 24, 2017 at 8 p.m.
Joining forces for this extraordinary evening are two piano titans who hail from different eras:music icon Chick Corea and one of the new masters of jazz piano, Gonzalo Rubalcaba. Keyboardist, composer and bandleader Chick Corea is a DownBeat Hall of Famer and NEA Jazz Master, as well as the fourth most nominated artist in GRAMMY history with 63 nominations and 22 wins, in addition to a number of Latin GRAMMYS. From straight-ahead to avant-garde, bebop to jazz-rock fusion, children's songs to chamber and symphonic works, Corea has touched an astonishing number of musical bases in his illustrious career while maintaining a standard of excellence that is awe-inspiring.
GRAMMY and multiple Latin GRAMMY-winning pianist/composer Gonzalo Rubalcaba is considered one of the new masters of modern jazz piano. He has built a career, and with it, a musical bridge, to span the rich musical traditions of his native Cuba with North American jazz and has been described by The New York Times as "one of the greatest musicians in jazz and a pianist of super-natural abilities." Rubalcaba was commissioned by the Arsht Center for its 10th anniversary season to create a new work fusing Cuban and flamenco sounds. The piece celebrated its world premiere in March 2016.
JAZZ ROOTS: LIVING LEGENDS: BRANFORD MARSALIS QUARTET WITH SPECIAL
GUEST KURT ELLING
March 17, 2017 at 8 p.m.
For their Arsht Center debut, the 3-time GRAMMY Award-winning Branford Marsalis Quartet will be joined by guest vocalist and GRAMMY Award winner Kurt Elling in a singular collaboration of musical forces. The tight-knit working band featuring Marsalis on saxophones, Joey Calderazzo on piano, Eric Revis on bass, and Justin Faulkner on drums rarely invites other musicians into the fold of their nearly telepathically cohesive unit. Elling's deep jazz vocabulary, technical versatility, and outstanding intonation will enable the band to perform a variety of material in new ways. Opening for the quartet will be jazz vocalist, composer and Miami native, Carmen Lundy who is hailed by The Evening Standard as "a genuine jazz singer."
JAZZ ROOTS: FROM MA RAINEY TO MILES DAVIS: A BLUES JOURNEY
Steve Miller, Henry Mancini Institute Big Band and special guests Jimmy Vaughan, Mike
Flanigin and Shelly Berg
April 7, 2017 at 8 PM
When the music of Ma Rainey meets Miles Davis, expect the realms of blues and jazz to be out of this world. Originally developed for and performed at Jazz at Lincoln Center this past season, renowned blues-rock guitarist, multi platinum-selling singer/songwriter, 2016 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, and life-long jazz fan Steve Miller hosts a wide-ranging musical-and-beyond revue with special guests: Jimmy Vaughan on guitar, Mike Flanigin on the Hammond B3 organ and JAZZ ROOTS artistic advisor Shelly Berg on piano. From his distinctively recognizable guitar and vocals, to engaging commentary, high-energy jamming, and much more, the evening promises surprises and high-level performances. Having learned his first chords at age five from his godfather Les Paul, how to play lead guitar from T-Bone Walker at age nine, and then working with the best Bluesmen in Chicago – Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Buddy Guy, and Paul Butterfield – Miller has incorporated his affinity for the blues into such hits as "The Joker," "Fly Like An Eagle," and "Jet Airliner."

Not all hackers are stealing your credit card info...
The term Hacking is widely interpreted as "breaking into computers". Although this sounds criminal, it sometimes is not. A lot of hacking actually happens with permission of the rightful owner of a site or device, for instance when a company hires hackers to test their software for vulnerabilities. It does however becomes illegal when you commit computer trespassing. But as in real life, there will always be hackers that act "on the wrong" side. A widely accepted way to differentiate between hackers is using three types of "hats": The white hat, the black hat, and the lesser known grey hat. The idea is that a white hat hacker hacks for the good, a black hat hacker is so called "evil" and a grey hat hacker is a combination of a white hat and a black hat hacker. Grey hat hackers sometime cross the lines in to the darker domains, where as a white hat act neatly between the lines called 'scope'. These different types of hackers also have different motives. While a white hat hacker might do it for the thrill, the challenge and the recognition, a black hat hacker will more likely do it for the money and the thrill (and sometimes even for political reasons). The market The hacker "market" is huge, and complying to all aspects of that market requires different types of skills. For example, a hacker that attacks websites needs a different set of skills than a hacker who finds vulnerabilities in software like IOS and Windows.
The not so ethical market
DDOS attacks
There is a fairly big community on the internet that sells so called DDOS attacks. A DDOS basically means that you send an enormous flood of data -from multiple sources- to a system or website in order to make it unreachable for regular traffic. For a couple of bucks you can buy a DDOS attack and take any website down. Websites that offer these attacks aren't even hidden on the dark web. Try Googling for the word "stresser", and pick one to start your very own DDOS attack.
Zerodium
There are also companies who buy vulnerabilities from hackers for huge amounts of money. Zerodium for example payed a group of unknown hackers a million dollars after finding a zeroday vulnerability in IOS9. The question if this is considered ethical is a difficult one to answer. The hackers themselves didn't harm anyone but the companies / governments who buy the vulnerabilities from Zerodium might. Does this make black hats from the hackers that the vulnerability and sold it? Or did they act responsible?
The ethical hacker market is way different than the black hat market. For example, an ethical hacker would never attack a website using a DDOS attack because they know that this type of an attack is mostly unpreventable. Ethical hackers are way more focussed on improving security instead of breaking it. Let's take Shellshock for example, which affected millions of systems.
Shellshock: A deadly new vulnerability that could lay waste to the internet (updated) | ExtremeTech_There's a new internet-crippling zero-vulnerability in town called Shellshock. It potentially affects around half of…_www.extremetech.com
This vulnerability was reported by an ethical hacker who later got rewarded $20.000,- for finding this vulnerability. He might have gotten more, but instead of selling this vulnerability to companies like Zerodium he reported it responsibly, so vendors could fix it.
The fight between good and evil
Overtime we have seen a lot of examples where "bad" hackers have exposed user information stolen from systems they breached. An example of this is the Adobe hack where over 150 million user records have leaked or the Ashley Madison hack that had a huge impact (and a lot of media attention).
Unfortunately, it is this media attention that composes the image of hackers these days, and that image sadly can't be fixed in a day. Although there are a lot of prevented data leaks because white hat hackers were kind enough to take the risk and report these vulnerabilities to a company/vendor – for example via coordinated vulnerability disclosure (also called Responsible Disclosure) - white hat hackers will never be able to "compensate" the impact that black hat hackers have on the media. Let's face it:
"11 million Ashley Madison passwords revealed."
Sounds way better on the front page of a news site than
"Hackers prevent possible data leakage at Ashley Madison."
Luckily we are on the right track by showing that there are also "friendly" hackers. A great example where white hat hackers have shown that there are also "good" hackers was the car hack by Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek.
Hackers Remotely Kill a Jeep on the Highway-With Me in It_I was driving 70 mph on the edge of downtown St. Louis when the exploit began to take hold. Though I hadn't touched the…_www.wired.com
Another example where you can see the impact of white hat hackers preventing companies from getting hacked and leaking millions of records is the already mentioned Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure, which basically means that a hacker is allowed to "take a look" and when something is found he/she has to report that in a "responsible" way. The deal is that the company that runs this program does not take the hacker to court when the hacker played by the rules. More and more companies are already doing this (Including the Dutch government!), and we see this as a great way to get the hacker community working together in a positive way with the corporate world. Some companies even take it further than that, they actively ask hackers to test their systems and reward hackers for vulnerabilities found in their network or services. Those vulnerability reward programs are also called "bug bounty programs".
A company that runs such a bug bounty program with great results is Facebook. In 2015 Facebook paid around 1 million (in total 4.3 million since they started in 2011) to hackers who reported vulnerabilities in their systems. You can read more about Facebook's experience with white hat hackers at their report from 2015:
https://www.facebook.com/notes/facebook-bug-bounty/2015-highlights-less-low-hanging-fruit/1225168744164016
Last year Facebook received 13,233 reports from researchers all over the world. That's a huge number and it tells a lot about how big and growing this community is. Let's keep building a future where it is more profitable and accepted for hackers to just report vulnerabilities instead of misusing them!


In his early ceramic work Paul Dresang produced fully functional vessels, an approach he abandoned once he started to work with porcelain in 1985. With this change, he began to explore the surreal images he could create with ceramics. He is known for sculpting teapots enclosed in "unzipped" ceramic "bags." This motif emerged from the artist's interest in the opposing ideas of constraint and breaking free. This theme later led him to incorporate other common objects such as children's toys or household wares. Dresang focuses his work on everyday items because he hopes that they will evoke a memory or experience, providing viewers a personal connection to his sculptures.

R. Kelly Reportedly Dropped by Sony Music: About Damn Time
By Kayleigh Donaldson | Celebrity | January 18, 2019 |
Variety, among other publications, have reported that Sony Music have decided to 'part ways' or 'dissolve its working relationship' with R. Kelly. That means he was probably dropped by the label. This comes after Lifetime's documentary series Surviving R. Kelly premiered, reminding the public and music industry once more of what it has already known for a very long time. No official announcement has been made.Kelly's last release with the label was a Christmas album in 2016. He has released songs independently since then and claims he has a new album on the way.
News also broke that Kelly's former manager, Henry James Mason, had surrendered to authorities in Georgia today after a warrant was issued for his arrest. Mason was accused of making 'terroristic threats and acts' against the family of Jocelyn Savage, one of the women allegedly being held against her will within Kelly's 'cult'. That original story was reported in Buzzfeed by journalist Jim DeRogatis in July 2017.
R. Kelly is a scumbag. You know it, we know it, the whole damn world knows it. Allegations of abusive and sexually threatening behaviour by him towards young black women can be found throughout his career. His brief illegal marriage to Aaliyah when she was 15 and he was 27 was treated as a curiosity in its day but not the obvious crime and abuse it was. He was charged with child pornography in 2000 but cleared in 2008 after the woman at the centre of the video declined to testify, and that tape became a joke more than anything else. He has gotten away with it for so long because, as DeRogatis told Village Voice in 2013, 'The saddest fact I've learned is nobody matters less to our society than young black women. Nobody.' It is embarrassing that it's taken until 2019 for the vaguest of actions to be taken, and even then only because a Lifetime documentary publicly embarrassed people into admitting how complicit they'd been. Arrest this creep now.

2019 Grants to Community Organizations Working Toward LGBTQ Health Equity Models
In August 2019, the Campaign for Southern Equality awarded $30,000 in community grants focused on transforming the landscape of LGBTQ health equity in the South. This infusion of funding to organizations on the leading edge of serving LGBTQ Southerners supported new models in the South that increase access to care and ensure that people are treated with dignity and respect in health care settings.
Read more about the organizations that received grants during this special Southern Equality Fund grant round. They are: Western NC Community Health Services, Gender Benders, CHOICES Memphis, and the Nationz Foundation.
Western NC Community Health Services
Location and Services: Based in Asheville, NC, WNCCHS provides primary and HIV care to people across 18 Western NC counties.
Purpose of Grant: This grant will promote WNCCHS' Transgender Health Program and their work to develop best practices, strategies and models for other Southern health centers striving to be more LGBTQ-inclusive.
Quote from Scott Parker, Director of Development and Collaboration: "WNCCHS is honored to receive this funding from the Campaign for Southern Equality to promote our Trans Health Program and our LGBTQ Health Initiative at our health center in Asheville. Working with CSE, we will be expanding our LGBTQ Health Initiative to other health centers across the deep south, offering best practices, replicable models, and support to staff and patients. We look forward to continuing our journey with CSE."
Gender Benders
Location and Services: Based in Greenville, SC, Gender Benders serves transgender and gender diverse Southerners through support, resources, and activism.
Purpose of Grant: This grant provided health, wellness, and resiliency services, including HIV testing and transgender health consultations, to more than 70 attendees of Camp Gender Bender, an annual summer convening of transgender Southerners.
Quote from Ivy Gibson-Hill, Executive Director: "Gender Benders is so grateful for this support from Campaign for Southern Equality, which is allowing us to offer a much more robust health and wellness component to our programming at Camp GB this summer. With CSE's support, interested campers will be able to start Hormone Replacement Therapy, access free HIV testing, receive mental health support, receive one-on-one herbal medicine consultation to promote mental health and physical transition, and so much more. Knowing the barriers transgender Southerners face in accessing healthcare, we believe these services will be life-changing for many of our attendees, and none of it would be possible without the support of CSE."
We are honored to support these four incredible organizations, which are using innovation and grit to create new models to help Southern LGBTQ people access the care they need and deserve. This funding round is about reaching someone with the HIV test or life-saving information that they need right now, and it's also about creating models that can be replicated across the South in the longer-term." – Jasmine Beach-Ferrara, Campaign for Southern Equality
CHOICES: Memphis Center for Reproductive Health
Location and Services: Based in Memphis, TN, providing reproductive health services, including transgender health care, in the mid-South.
Purpose of Grant: CHOICES will provide free sexually transmitted infections (STI) testing to LGBTQ people in a pilot project with OUTMemphis; community members will also be provided with education and referrals to care.
Quote from Kathryn M. Leopard, Assistant Director:
"CHOICES currently provides healthcare to almost 200 transgender patients in the mid-south region. These patients come to CHOICES for hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and general sexual/reproductive wellness care. With funds from the Southern Equality Fund, CHOICES is excited to work with our local partner to provide free STI testing and linkage to care for LGBTQ persons in Memphis."
Nationz Foundation
Location and Services: Based in Richmond, VA, Nationz Foundation provides HIV education and prevention services to LGBTQ people in Central Virginia.
Purpose of Grant: The grant will support staff positions focused on HIV testing and phlebotomy services and support AIM 2 INSPIRE, a project supporting LGBTQ people impacted by housing instability.
Quote from Zakia McKensey, Director:
"Nationz works with LGBTQIA+ communities, with a specific focus on transgender women of color, because these communities are disproportionately affected by HIV and STIs and face higher rates of discrimination and access to medical care. Our work to provide emergency housing, food from our Food Pantry, and direct linkage to care and treatment makes a big difference in our clients' lives, and we're grateful to expand and deepen those services with this grant from the Campaign for Southern Equality."

As a parent, you are aware that rearing a baby requires a lot of stuff–milk bottles, diapers, diaper rash cream, clothes, changing mat, small toys, etc. And when you look at a diaper bag, you wonder how in the world will all these things fit into it. So, in this post, we will discuss the diaper bag essentials to help you solve one of the main challenges of parenthood: knowing and deciding which ones to pack.
You have a long list, and we know that for sure. But no matter how badly you want to bring everything, only a few can fit in the bag!
Let us talk about the most popular items that a diaper bag should have and understand how important each is. This will give you a better idea of what needs to be on top of your list and what are those you and your baby can do without.
Of course, we have the clothes which are also among the things that most parents overpack. Do you ever find yourself wondering why you pack so many pairs of baby clothes even if you know that you will be out for only an hour or two? Do not worry that is forgivable because if there is one thing your diaper bag has to have, then it is definitely baby clothes.
Babies mess up big time, and so you will likely to find yourself changing them into a fresh pair every other hour or two. You can also use the soiled ones to wipe the mess or as a makeshift changing pad.
These are must-haves and non-negotiable. However, some parents tend to overdo it by bringing packs and packs of diapers "just in case" the baby needs it when they are out. As there is a limited amount of space in a diaper bag, it is imperative to make sure that you only bring a couple that you actually need. It is best if you are aware of the number of diapers your baby uses per hour, so you can pack enough pieces for the entire duration that you will be out of the house.
Whether you are feeding your baby formula or breast milk, you have to make sure that you pack enough of it depending on how long will you be out of the house. The interval of your baby's feeding depends largely on his or her age, so make sure you bring the right amount because a hungry baby is a grumpy baby.
Your little one is capable of surprising you with big messes, and you want to make sure you get that covered by packing wipes, which come in different brands and packages. Travel-size wipes are best for outdoor trips. You might also want to stash extras in the car because wipes are convenient to use not just for babies but by adults as well.
Some diaper bags already include a changing pad with a designated compartment. But if you were to buy one separately, then you would want to look for one that is easy to pack and clean as well as water-resistant. You definitely would not want to put your baby down anywhere without this!
These are small and lightweight cloths that you put over your shoulder when burping your baby, but they are also useful for wiping your baby's face when they spit-up. Usually, cloth diapers qualify for this, and they are widely used because they are absorbent, soft, and handy.
These are also lightweight cloths but bigger and broader than burp pads. This blanket is handy, and it does not take too much space in your diaper bag. It is great when you need to put your baby to sleep or if want to cover and protect your little one from the cold or the sun. You can also use this if you ever need to put your baby down, and you do not have a changing pad.
Your baby's head and the back of the neck should be protected from the harsh sun at all times, especially if he or she is fair-skinned and bald. It is also not recommended for babies to stay under direct sunlight for too long, and sunscreen should be applied only if you cannot help but stay outdoors longer than expected.
This can be the form of a favorite toy, book, cloth, blanket, stuffed animal, rattle or even pacifier. Like adults, babies tend to get attached to something that brings them comfort, and it is a great idea to bring this object with you when going out in case you need to pacify or make them feel better.
If you label your luggage, notebooks, and even packed lunch, then you should label your diaper bags, too. If yours do not come with a designated area for this, then you can laminate a card with your name on it, and place it anywhere in the bag so that it will be easy for someone to return it just in case it gets lost. It is also critical for you to have a copy of all emergency contact numbers in the bag, so they are handy in case you suddenly need them.
Becoming a parent requires you to be prepared at all times. However, there are just a gazillion things to do. So, we hope that after enumerating and discussing the diaper bag essentials, you get to decide which stuff to prioritize and which does not.
Also, it is wise to remember that these are just the common things a baby needs, but it is YOU who will decide what YOUR baby needs. You should never feel bad about having a different way of doing things because every parenting journey is different and it is not fair to compare.

Conrado José Kraémer (* 2. November 1902 in Beirut, Libanon; † nach 1965) alias Kurt Kraemer war Generalbevollmächtigter der Hispano Suiza (Suisse) in Genf.

Biografie
Kraémers Mutter war Sudetendeutsche und sein Vater ein Spanier, der böhmische Glaswaren an der Tür verkaufte. Kraémer lebte von 1914 bis 1945 unter dem Namen Kurt Kraemer in Böhmen. Im Zweiten Weltkrieg leitete Kraemer einen Rüstungsbetrieb in Prag. 1948 zog Conrado José Kraémer von Prag in die Schweiz mit einem spanischen Pass um. 1956 erhielt er die österreichische Staatsbürgerschaft.

Im November 1955 hatte Hispano Suiza (Suisse) Beamte und Offiziere des Amtes Blank nach Paris geladen, es wurde ein französischer Flakpanzer vorgeführt. Major Joachim Oster war beauftragt worden, ein Geschäft mit Hispano-Suiza, Genf abzuwickeln, welches vom Leiter des Kanzleramtes Dr. Otto Lenz arrangiert worden war. Im Sommer 1956 hatte der Bonner Verteidigungs- und Haushaltsausschuss eine Vorlage für die Beschaffung von 10.000 Schützenpanzern vom Typ HS 30 im Auftragswert von 2,78 Milliarden Mark vorgelegt bekommen. Die Panzer sollten bei Hispano-Suiza Genf geordert werden. Aufgrund eines Pappmodells des HS 30 wurde ein Vorvertrag abgeschlossen und sogleich eine Anzahlung von 254 Millionen Mark geleistet. Dieser Vertrag wurde von Lenz, Generalmajor Joachim Oster, und Hispano-Suiza-Vertreter Conrado José Kraémer ausgehandelt. Conrado José Kraémer war für den Militärischen Abschirmdienst (MAD) tätig. Don Conrado José Kraémer war ab 1957 Generalbevollmächtigte von Hispano Suiza Genf. Ab Ende der 1950er hatte Kraémer Hausverbot im Bundesverteidigungsministerium. 1965 zahlte die Bundesrepublik Deutschland noch mehrere Millionen Deutsche Mark an Hispano-Suiza Genf, mittlerweile wurde Hispano-Suiza Genf durch Hans Wilhelmi vertreten.

If I compete in the class A, can my rocket pressure vessel be constructed out of fluorescent tube covers? Can my rocket be pressurized to 400 psi? Can by rocket drop heavy ballast out of the rocket for a tumble recovery (water or rockets or something heavy) ?
Water Rocket Expert wrote: If I compete in the class A, can my rocket pressure vessel be constructed out of fluorescent tube covers? Can my rocket be pressurized to 400 psi? Can by rocket drop heavy ballast out of the rocket for a tumble recovery (water or rockets or something heavy) ?
1. Yes the rocket can be constructed using a fluorescent lamp cover if you choose.
3. You can use any kind of deployment system you like (just remember that any "heavy ballast" you fly would count as the total weight towards the maximum weight of 1500 grams).
4. Your recovery system must meet the maximum touchdown speed and the rocket must be flown two times within 2 hours and the average of the two flights being considered the altitude.

Thanks but can I use rocks as a weigh in the nose cone instead of metal.

The extra weight is going to adversely affect the altitude.
Sand or clay would work better and be safer than rocks.
It is okay if the rocket drops rocks from high altitude? Just wondering. I'd be cool to see them splash in the water too!

There's nothing stopping people from dropping rocks, launching mammalian passengers, or putting metal nozzles on their water rockets, except of course for the local laws. For the most part, you have to follow the hobby rocket rules for the area where you live. Every major government follows rules that restrict such things, and define acceptable parameters for weight and materials, so if you choose to break the law the only thing that can stop you is probably getting caught.

UN says Facebook is accelerating ethnic violence in Myanmar
The United Nations has warned that Facebook's platform is contributing to the spread of hate speech and ethnic violence in crisis-hit Myanmar.
It's yet another black mark against social media at a time when the tech industry's reputation as an accelerator of false information is attracting criticism from the highest places.
This week the government of Sri Lanka also sought to block access to Facebook and two other of its social services, WhatsApp and Instagram, in an attempt to stem mob violence against its local Muslim minority — citing inflammatory social media posts.
"These platforms are banned because they were spreading hate speeches and amplifying them," a government spokesman told the New York Times.
India has also struggled for years with false information being spread by social media platforms like WhatsApp then triggering riots, communal violence and even leading to deaths.
While humans telling lies is nothing new, the speed at which misinformation and disinformation can now spread, thanks to digitally networked communities linked on social media, is.
Moderating that risk is the challenge big tech platforms stand accusing of failing.
UN human rights experts investigating a possible genocide in Rakhine state warned yesterday that Facebook's platform is being used by ultra-nationalist Buddhists to incite violence and hatred against the Rohingya and other ethnic minorities.
A security crackdown in the country last summer led to around 650,000 Rohingya Muslims fleeing into neighboring Bangladesh. Since then there have been multiple reports of state-led violence against the refugees, and the UN has been leading a fact-finding mission in the country.
Yesterday, chairman of the mission, Marzuki Darusman, told reporters that the social media platform had played a "determining role" in Myanmar's crisis (via Reuters).
Darusman said Facebook has "substantively contributed to the level of acrimony and dissension and conflict" within the public sphere. "Hate speech is certainly of course a part of that," he continued, adding: "As far as the Myanmar situation is concerned, social media is Facebook, and Facebook is social media."
In Myanmar, Ashin Wirathu, an ultranationalist Buddhist monk who preaches hate against the Rohingya, has been able to build up large followings on social media — using Facebook to spread divisive and hate-fueling messages.
Speaking to reporters yesterday, UN investigator Yanghee Lee, described Facebook as a huge part of public, civil and private life in Myanmar, noting it is used by the government to disseminate information to the public.
However she also flagged how the platform has been appropriated by ultra-nationalist elements to spread hate against minorities.
In the case of Wirathu, Facebook has sometimes removed or restricted his pages — but does not appear to have done enough. Though the company has now confirmed to us that it permanently disabled his profile at the end of January.
"Everything is done through Facebook in Myanmar," said Lee. "It was used to convey public messages but we know that the ultra-nationalist Buddhists have their own Facebooks and are really inciting a lot of violence and a lot of hatred against the Rohingya or other ethnic minorities."
"I'm afraid that Facebook has now turned into a beast, and not what it originally intended," she added.
We reached out to the company with questions but at the time of writing Facebook had not responded. Update: A Facebook spokesperson has now provided the following statement:
There is no place for hate speech or content that promotes violence on Facebook, and we work hard to keep it off our platform. We have invested significantly in technology and local language expertise to help us swiftly remove hate content and people who repeatedly violate our hate speech policies. We take this incredibly seriously and have worked with experts in Myanmar for several years to develop safety resources and counter-speech campaigns. This work includes a dedicated Safety Page for Myanmar, a locally illustrated version of our Community Standards, and regular training sessions for civil society and local community groups across the country. Of course, there is always more we can do and we will continue to work with local experts to help keep our community safe.
For years Myanmar's military dictatorship entirely controlled and censored the press, but in 2011 it began what was billed as a gradual democratic transition — which included opening up to new media services such as Facebook. And the platform essentially went from ground zero to becoming the most important information source in Myanmar in a handful of years.
Local Facebook users are now thought to number over 30 million.
But as uptake ballooned, human rights groups sounded alarms over how Facebook is being used to spread hate speech and stoke ethnic violence.
Last year New York Times reporter Paul Moyer also warned that government Facebook channels were being used to spread anti-Rohingya propaganda — implying the platform has also been appropriated as a citizen control tool by the state seeding its own propaganda.
And while states maliciously misappropriating social media to foster hate against their own citizens may not be a problem in every country where the tech industry operates, social media platforms amplifying hate speech is certainly a universal concern — from Asia to Europe to America.
