Greater Milwaukee Fire and Police Pipes and Drums
Formed in 2000
The band was established to perform the music of the Highland bagpipes and drums for memorial ceremonies, funerals, and other events relating to the Protective Services and the U.S. Military.
The original members of the Band were either active or retired members of the Milwaukee Fire and Police Departments. There were ten students in the original group. The first Pipe Major and primary instructor was Katie Higgins (now Berigan), who led the Band in its formative years.
Our membership has expanded to the larger community of Firefighters and Law Enforcement Officers in Southeast Wisconsin as well as members of the community at large.
We have had the distinct honor to play at all of the Milwaukee Fire Department and Milwaukee County Law Enforcement Memorials since our founding. In addition, the band also performed at many Fire and Police memorial ceremonies around the State of Wisconsin.
GMFPPD has traveled to Washington DC (2008 & 2012) to perform in the National Law Enforcement Memorial and to Colorado Springs, CO (2009) to participate in the IAFF Fallen Firefighters Memorial ceremonies.
Band member Dan Schmerse took over the duties of Pipe Major in 2008.
In the winter of 2008-2009 the Greater Milwaukee Fire & Police Pipes & Drums began joint practice and playing sessions with the Celtic Nations Pipes & Drums. The Shamrock Club Pipes & Drums joined the group in 2010.
In 2010, the GMFPPD joined the Midwest Pipe Band Association and, under the musical direction of Ringo Bowen and leadership of Pipe Major Dan Schmerse along with the renewed efforts of the members, the Band entered Grade 5 competition at the Highland Games at Milwaukee's Scottish Fest. The event was held at Hart Park in Wauwatosa, WI and the Band, in it's first competitive outing, received an award for second place.
Of our most memorable events are the performances at Milwaukee's City Hall at ceremonies honoring departing Archbishop Timothy Dolan and since May 2, 2010, we have had the honor of performing at General Mitchell International Airport, as WW II and Korean Veterans have returned from their Honor Flight to Washington DC to visit the WW II Memorial.

A total solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's descending node of the orbit on Saturday, March 30, 2052. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. A total solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is larger than the Sun's, blocking all direct sunlight, turning day into darkness. Totality occurs in a narrow path across Earth's surface, with the partial solar eclipse visible over a surrounding region thousands of kilometres wide.
The path of totality will cross central Mexico and the southeastern states of the United States. Almost all of North America and the northern edge of South America will see a partial eclipse. It will be the 2nd total eclipse visible from the Florida Panhandle and southwest Georgia in 6.6 years. It will be the first total solar eclipse visible from Solar Saros 130 in 223 synodic months.

Nigeria's Top Oil Militant Escapes Death; On The Run
Information reaching chidi opara reports from the creeks of Nigeria's volatile oil and gas region, the Niger Delta where fiece gun battle have been raging for two days between the Movement For The Emancipation Of Niger Delta(MEND) and the Joint Taskforce On Security(JTF), indicate that Nigeria's top oil militant, Mr. Government Ekpomupolo, popularly known as Tom Polo, narrowly escaped death and is now on the run. Tom Polo's tactical headquarters is the now captured camp five located in the Gbaramatu area of Delta State.
Our network members report that at about 2.45am on saturday, 16th May, 2009, the JTF launched an aerial and sea attack at the camp, believed to be the most organized and fortified militant camps on the creeks of Niger Delta. The initial attack we learnt was repelled by the well equiped MEND fighters, prompting the commander of the JTF operation to call for re-enforcement. About one hour later, two helicopter gunships three gunboats and some troops were deployed from the JTF base in Warri. "The last battle was bloody for us and JTF, but we lost more", a MEND insider told chidi opara reports on telephone. Another MEND insider volunteered that Tom Polo, who fought with everything at his disposal to secure his tactical headquarters, was the last person to leave the camp. "General and his priestess were the last to leave the camp, they left at about 4.15am", our contact revealed further.
Tom Polo is credited with the personality of a "gentleman militant". He is not known to engage in vices like cultism, sea piracy, etc. He is said to be focused on the "struggle", and does not get distracted by proceeds from illegal oil bunkering. He is also said to be loyal to the incarcerated Henry Okah.
At the time of preparing this report, chidi opara reports have not been able to certain the reason for the attack on this top oil militant, known to have good working relationship with oil majors and the military high command.

Associates Of Detained Nigerian Federal Law Makers Get Desperate
Network members of chidi opara reports in Abuja, Nigeria's capital city report of desperation on the part of associates of the House Of Representative members detained by the Economic And Financial Crimes Commission(EFCC), on allegation of fraud at the Rural Electrification Agency(REA). The detained law makers are: Ndudi Elumelu, Nicholas Ugbane and Mohammed Jibo.
This desperation we learnt was due to subtle threats by the families of the detained law makers to spill the bean on other scandalous activities of the leadership of the House, which are capable of generating enough furore that would lead to the removal of the entire house leadership, if no political solution to the current ordeal of the detained law makers is found soon.
chidi opara reports learnt on good authority that a top level security operative from the south west, who is a close friend of one of the detained persons have furnished the influential elder brother of his detained friend, with some damaging details of the House Leadership's, especially, the speaker's and the Deputy speaker's involvements in the upstream sector of the Petroleum Industry. These details we learnt further, have been forwarded to the speaker and Deputy speaker. The Senate leadership, according to our National Assembly contacts are not spared in the threats. "These people are now working behind the scene to prepare a soft landing for the detainees", a contact close to the family of one of the detainees informed us in Asaba yesterday. It is also learnt that some notable personalities are working hard on their own to ensure the early release of the detainees. These personalities according to investigations are those who harbour private fears that further probe into the affairs of one of the detained law makers, whose relation is a top flight finance professional may expose some of their illegal financial dealings over the years.
A chidi opara reports' EFCC contact however, inform that the Commission would arraign the detainees in court soon.
Update On Fighting!(News Release Issured By MEND)
Considering that ours is a war of detachment and our camps are not meant to serve as permanent barracks, fighters from Camp 5 simply relocated to another camp with all their weapons and ammunition's intact. This is normal in guerrilla warfare.
We are embarrassed at the dismal performance of the Nigerian armed forces who performed like poorly trained amateurs by bombing indiscriminately into civilian communities using helicopter gunships and fighter jet planes. Civilians should have been allowed to leave the area before the attack. This simply has shown that the government is insensitive to the Niger Delta people.
If the army's mission was to also rescue the hostages, then that again was a botched and ridiculous attempt because the hostages were not at any immediate risk to their lives except for their temporary freedom.
We regret to announce that two hostages have been killed by the indiscriminate shelling and two more are still in our custody. We are happy that all of them were not killed by the army. The bodies of the dead men will be handed over to the Red Cross. MEND deeply regrets the avoidable deaths.
It is not true that the army captured a plane from Camp 5. If my memory serves me right, the plane in question is a toy remote controlled plane which can be purchased from any toy shop. It is rather shameful that they can not distinguish the difference between a toy plane and a drone.
As promised, we have begun nibbling again at the oil infrastructure. Already, two major trunk pipe and gas lines which were recently repaired have been blown up. This is just the tip of the series of attacks we plan to carry out.
For the Nigerian government to declare victory, troops must be able to secure every inch of pipelines and eliminate the over 500 camps stretching from Ondo to Akwa Ibom.
What the government has been successful in doing is committing genocide against the Ijaw communities whose offense it seems is discovering oil in their backyards.
Our message to the Northern Sultans and Emirs is this: The period of exploiting the Niger Delta is coming to an end. It is not the birth right of your people to rule the Federal Republic of Nigeria. The war is just beginning and by the time it ends, Nigeria will practice true federalism such as fiscal federalism which will benefit the entire populace. Let your people brace themselves to develop their resources and such a bold change will be remembered.
Our fighters in Delta state have not requested for reinforcement from other states. They are conducting the battle very well and every night the military is depleted by about an average of ten soldiers.
General Tompolo is alive and well. He was in unilateral discussions with the government on a peaceful way forward but that did not mean he would close his eyes and watch soldiers disrupt a local festival by harassing innocent visitors to the event.
Since they did not disrupt the Argungu festival in the North, it was not acceptable to disrupt ours in the South. The skirmish which saw the loss of over twenty soldiers and an officer as well as the sinking of two gunboats on Wednesday the 13th of May which the army has found it hard to admit resulted in the punitive expedition of the Gbaramatu kingdom.
The British hostage, Mr Mathew Maguire has been relocated to Delta state and will be a guest of one the camps there.
Nigerians should now brace up for the worst from the decisions from an incompetent leadership.
The Niger Delta people who have endured injustice and genocide for over 50 years must be ready to fight for change as our destiny should not be in the hands of others but ourselves.
Since the destruction of pipelines, manifolds and flow stations will be numerous, we may not announce everyone of them as it happens.

I spoke with Don McAlpine, ASC, ACS, on his day off from The Dressmaker, a feature he is shooting in his native Australia. The film stars Kate Winslet and Liam Hemsworth and is being directed by Jocelyn Moorhouse. The story follows a glamorous woman who returns to a small town in Australia and uses her sewing machine to take creative revenge on those who once did her wrong.
Don says it's a tragedy with a large dose of comedy, and that his brief is "to do nothing in a normal way." He is enjoying the chance to shoot some significant day-for-night. The film is not without visual effects — there are some greenscreen shots — but in general, it's a story told on a human scale, and therefore quite a different undertaking for Don, whose recent credits include Ender's Game and X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
"A small film like The Dressmaker is generally just all heart," says Don, who received the ASC International Award in 2009. "I do get enjoyment out of both experiences. Something like Ender's Game is more a challenge of organization and of managing complex situations; you're constantly fighting the technical to keep it from overwhelming the film. On a film like The Dressmaker, you're out there, totally exposed. You have to get it in the next half hour and move on; there's no coming back. Small crews are wonderful because you're in an intimate situation with a limited number of people. On the big movie, you're always close to your little circle around you, but beyond that you've got a thousand people. There's no two ways about it: small films are instantly more pleasurable."
Don reports that he has had two "wonderful disasters" recently, both unique projects that were prepped to some degree and then fell apart for various reasons. The first was a major production in China that had virtually unlimited funding: September 18, set in the early days of the Sino-Japanese war that preceded World War II. Don put in eight weeks of work in prep, during which time he was "treated like a bloody emperor." He says they shot for two hours, and then the director vanished. The project never recovered.
The second disaster was Broadway 4D, a production that leased an old Broadway theater on 42nd Street in New York with the intent of refurbishing it and using it as an event cinema with interactive capabilities. Don, who earned ASC and Oscar nominations for Moulin Rouge, was brought in to supervise the photography of live Broadway production numbers, and these were planned as content for the venue. The idea was to shoot in native 3-D at 4K at 30 fps. Massive sets were built in Brooklyn, and a top Broadway lighting director also came aboard. "It was going to be brilliant," says Don. "But one day they called us into the office and told us to go home — the bankers had pulled out. I was devastated.
After those two experiences, Don was a little worried that The Dressmaker might "come unstitched." But he was two weeks in at the time of our conversation, and all was going well. Once that production wraps, he will likely retreat to his home at Macmasters Beach, where he has about 40 acres of forest out his front window.

Victory for postal workers brings EU letterbox regulations
Emerald letterbox in Ireland
The Communication Workers Union (CWU) is celebrating a landmark victory for postal workers across the UK after the government agreed to alter building regulations on letterbox heights later this year. The high profile campaign which had postal workers striving for the European Standard to be added to the UK's Building Regulations has gained momentum over the past few months. The CWU first raised concerns as long ago as 1958, when the British Standards Agency stated that letterboxes should be at a 'reasonable' height but no legislation was implemented.
The campaign peaked in January 2019, when a Private Members Ten Minute Rule Bill sponsored by CWU and Royal Mail was presented to a full House of Commons and received support from all political parties.
Incidents involving dog bites are common, often resulting in hospital care and finger amputations, but Royal Mail says that back injury is the main cause of reported sickness amongst its staff with nearly 17,000 reported cases in 2018. Stooping to deliver letters or parcels can result in repetitive strain injury and joint injuries, and also risk damage to packages which are crammed through letterboxes that are too narrow. Low level letterboxes are also associated with an increased likelihood of injury from pet bites and letterbox theft.
The Building Regulations Advisory Committee has formally endorsed the CWU's recommendation to alter the regulations and has asked the government to make an inclusion in part 'M' which is a section of a revised Building Regulation. The addition will result in a new minimum height for all letterboxes across the UK. A formal review will take place later in the year and the standard height will be rolled out across all new build homes and buildings, refurbished properties and building replacements.
The Communication Workers Union has recognised that changes won't happen overnight and so far there is no expectation for private home owners and businesses to make changes to their front doors.Â
In 2002, European Standard EN 13724 was released which stated that, for 'ergonomic and safety reasons', the centre line of the letterbox aperture should be at a height between 700 mm (2'3 1/2″) and 1700mm (5'7″). This is what the CWU called for and the standard that will be implemented later in 2019.
Ask a Chartered Surveyor for a Building Survey to assess the condition and structural elements of your new property and ensure it conforms to Building Regulations.

I Know Who You Are and I Saw What You Did: Social Networks and the Death of Privacy
Lori Andrews
HM851 .A66 2011
From the Publisher: Social networks are the defining cultural movement of our time, empowering us in constantly evolving ways. We can all now be reporters, alerting the world to breaking news, participating in crowd-sourced scientific research, and helping the police solve crimes. Social networks have even helped to bring down governments, but they have also greatly accelerated the erosion of our personal privacy rights. As leading expert on social networks and privacy Lori Andrews shows through ground- breaking in-depth research and a host of stunning stories of abuses, as we work and chat and shop and date (and even sometimes have sex) over the Web, we are opening ourselves up to increasingly intrusive, relentless, and anonymous surveillance—by employers, schools, lawyers, the police, and aggressive data aggregator services that compile an astonishing amount of information about us and sell it to any and all takers. But the legal system cannot be counted on to protect us—in the thousands of cases brought to trial by those whose rights have been violated, judges have most often ruled against them. That is why in addition to providing the best expert advice about protecting ourselves, Andrews pro- poses that we must all become supporters of a Constitution for the Web, which she has drafted and introduces in this book. Now is the time to join her and take action—the very future of privacy is at stake.
Legal Aspects of Managing Technology
Lee B. Burgunder
KF1890.H53 B87 2011
From the Publisher: This book is designed for businesspersons working with technological innovations in any field, including business, management, computer science, engineering, architecture, biology, or law. It focuses on integral technology law topics with substantial attention paid to the wide range of controversial issues regarding intellectual property rights, and coverage of all other key topics such as e-commerce, privacy, antitrust, and biotechnology. Its goal is not to make readers legal experts; rather it is too allow managers to understand the fundamental legal issues pertinent to technology management so that they can competently create strategic plans in consultation with their attorneys.
That Used to Be Us: How America Fell Behind in the World It Invented and How We Can Come Back
Thomas L. Friedman and Michael Mandelbaum
BF408 .F747 2011
From the Publisher: In That Used to Be Us, Thomas L. Friedman, one of our most influential columnists, and Michael Mandelbaum, one of our leading foreign policy thinkers, offer both a wake-up call and a call to collective action. They analyze the four challenges we face—globalization, the revolution in in- formation technology, the nation's chronic deficits, and our pattern of excessive energy consumption— and spell out what we need to do now to sustain the American dream and preserve American power in the world. They explain how the end of the Cold War blinded the nation to the need to address these issues seriously, and how China's educational successes, industrial might, and technological prowess remind us of the ways in which "that used to be us." They explain how the paralysis of our political sys- tem and the erosion of key American values have made it impossible for us to carry out the policies the country urgently needs.
The Real ID Act: Privacy and Government Surveillance
William Eyre
KF4791 .E97 2011
From the Publisher: Civil society in the United States in the 21st century has seen the abandonment of American concepts of individual freedom, privacy, expression and autonomy. Eyre ex- amines the Real ID Act in this context, as an example of laws passed since September 2001 restricting civil liberties. The Real ID Act facilitates the current and future surveillance regime. Real IDs and the database(s) to which they are linked represent a de facto national ID system facilitating monitoring citizens' movements, speech and political activities when fully operational. The Real ID Act is examined as an unfunded mandate and vehicle for unconstitutional abridgement of First Amendment guarantees including political expression.
Computer Games and Virtual Worlds: a New Frontier in Intellectual Property Law
Ross A. Dannenberg … [et al.], editors.
KF3024.C6 C625 2010
From the Publisher: As the uses and ubiquity of video games and virtual worlds expand, the legal issues they raise grow more complex and commonplace. These issues include the traditional areas of intellectual property law, namely, copyright, trademark, patent and trade secrets, as affected by contractual issues arising from the end user licensing agreements (EULA) and terms of service (ToS) promulgated by each video game and virtual world proprietor. This book explores and discusses how to obtain these traditional rights in the non-traditional settings of video game and virtual world environments, and serves as a primer for legal practitioners researching these emerging legal issues. Each chapter addresses, in order, end user license agreements, copyrights, patents, trademarks, and trade secrets, as addressed by U.S. law. The book also includes a commentary on international legal issues stemming from the multi-national user-base and foreign operation of many virtual worlds.
Principles of Cybercrime
Jonathan Clough, Monash University, Victoria
K5215 .C58 2010
From the Publisher: We live in a digital age. The proliferation of digital technology, and the convergence of computing and communication devices, has transformed the way in which we socialize and do business. While overwhelmingly positive, there has also been a dark side to these developments. Proving the maxim that crime follows opportunity, virtually every advance has been accompanied by a corresponding niche to be exploited for criminal purposes; so-called 'cybercrimes'. Whether it be fraud, child pornography, stalking, criminal copyright infringement or attacks on computers themselves, criminals will find ways to exploit new technology. The challenge for all countries is to ensure their criminal laws keep pace. The challenge is a global one, and much can be learned from the experience of other jurisdictions. Focusing on Australia, Canada, the UK and the US, this book provides a comprehensive analysis of the legal principles that apply to the prosecution of cybercrimes.

Semiotics of International Law: Trade and Translation
Evandro Menezes de Carvalho
F86 K213 .C36713 2011
From the Publisher: Language carries more than meanings; language conveys a means of conceiving the world. In this sense, national legal systems expressed through national languages organize the Law based on their own understanding of reality. International Law becomes, in this context, the meeting point where different legal cultures and different views of world intersect. The diversity of languages and legal systems can enrich the possibilities of understanding and developing international law, but it can also represent an instability and unsafety factor to the international scenario. This multilegal-system and multilingual scenario adds to the complexity of international law and poses new challeng-es. One of them is legal translation, which is a field of knowledge and professional skill that has not been the subject of theoretical thinking on the part of legal scholars. How to negotiate, draft or inter-pret an international treaty that mirrors what the parties, – who belong to different legal cultures and who, on many occasions, speak different mother tongues – , want or wanted to say? By analyzing the decision-making process and the legal discourse adopted by the WTO's Appellate Body, this book highlights the active role of language in diplomatic negotiations and in interpreting international law. In addition, it also shows that the debate on the effectiveness and legitimacy of International Law can-not be separated from the linguistic issue.
International Tax Law: A Legal Research Guide
Christopher C. Dykes
K103.T3 D95 2011
From the Publisher: This book presents an overview of the different aspects of international tax law as well as how to locate the various primary and secondary sources, including model tax conventions, bilateral tax treaties, and customary law. It also covers international taxation from the U.S. perspec-tive, and explores researching international tax law through online databases, using free sources as well as subscription services. Will be useful for law firms, tax professionals, law librarians, and all oth-ers interested in researching international tax law.
The New Global Law
Rafael Domingo
KZ3410 .D66 2010
From the Publisher: The dislocations of the worldwide economic crisis, the necessity of a system of global justice to address crimes against humanity, and the notorious 'democratic deficit' of internation-al institutions highlight the need for an innovative and truly global legal system, one that permits hu-manity to reorder itself according to acknowledged global needs and evolving consciousness. A new global law will constitute, by itself, a genuine legal order and will not be limited to a handful of moral principles that attempt to guide the conduct of the world's peoples. If the law of nations served the hegemonic interests of Ancient Rome, and international law served those of the European nation-state, then a new global law will contribute to the common good of all humanity and, ideally, to the develop-ment of durable world peace. This volume offers a historical-juridical foundation for the development of this new global law.
Guide to ICSID Arbitration
Lucy Reed, Jan Paulsson, Nigel Blackaby
K3834 .R44 2011
From the Publisher: The International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) has be-come the leading arbitration institution for the resolution of investor-state disputes. Today, any com-pany considering an investment in a foreign country and any financing entity playing a role in the in-vestment must be aware of ICSID and the growing matrix of bilateral investment treaties (BITs) and multilateral treaties (MITs), most notably, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the Energy Charter Treaty (ECT), providing access to ICSID. Familiarity with the regime and jurispru-dence of ICSID arbitration is essential for any international investment lawyer, whether focused on transactions or disputes. This second edition of the Guide takes account of the scores of ICSID awards and decisions rendered since 2004, as well as significant amendments to ICSID rules and practices. It provides a sufficiently detailed but still 'user-friendly' understanding of what ICSID arbitration is, when and how it can and should be used, and how an ICSID case works from start to finish.
International White Collar Crime: Cases and Materials
Bruce Zagaris
KZ3410 .F38 2010
From the Publisher: Contemporary transnational criminals take advantage of globalization, trade lib-eralization, and emerging new technologies to commit a diverse range of crimes, and to move money, goods, services, and people instantaneously for purposes of pure economic gain and/or political vio-lence. This book captures the importance of transnational business crime and international relations by examining the rise of international economic crime and recent strategies in the United States and abroad to combat it. The book is organized into three main sections. The first part discusses substan-tive crimes, particularly tax, money laundering, and counter-terrorism financial enforcement; transna-tional corruption; transnational organized crime; and export control and economic sanctions. The se-cond part discusses procedural aspects of international white collar crime, namely extraterritorial ju-risdiction, evidence gathering, extradition, and international prisoner transfer. The third part discusses the role of international organizations, including the United Nations, the World Bank Group, Interpol, and economic integration groups.
Interpreting TRIPS: Globalisation of Intellectual Property Rights and Access to Medicines
Hiroko Yamane
K1401.A41994 Y36 2011
From the Publisher: Protection of intellectual property rights (IPRs) has become a global issue. The Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property (TRIPS) Agreement outlines the minimum standards for IPR protection for WTO members and offers a global regime for IPR protection. However, the bene-fits of TRIPS are more questionable in poorer countries where national infrastructure for research and development (R&D) and social protection are inadequate, whereas the cost of innovation is high. To-day, after more than a decade of intense debate over global IPR protection, the problems remain acute, although there is also evidence of progress and cooperation.
This book examines various views of the role of IPRs as incentives for innovation against the backdrop of development and the transfer of technology between globalised, knowledge-based, high technology economies. The book retraces the origins, content and interpretations of the TRIPS Agreement, includ-ing its interpretations by WTO dispute settlement organs. It also analyses sources of controversy over IPRs, examining pharmaceutical industry strategies of emerging countries with different IPR policies.

1st Session
IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES
Mr. Udall of Colorado (for himself, Mr. Risch, Mr. Bennet, Mrs. Hagan, Ms. Klobuchar, Mr. Tester, Mr. Barrasso, Mr. Crapo, Mr. Thune, Mr. Begich, Mr. Pryor, Mr. Enzi, and Mr. Heller) introduced the following bill; which was read twice and referred to the Committee on Environment and Public Works
To amend the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act to facilitate the establishment of additional or expanded public target ranges in certain States.
This Act may be cited as the Target Practice and Marksmanship Training Support Act .
Findings; purpose
Congress finds that—
the use of firearms and archery equipment for target practice and marksmanship training activities on Federal land is allowed, except to the extent specific portions of that land have been closed to those activities;
in recent years preceding the date of enactment of this Act, portions of Federal land have been closed to target practice and marksmanship training for many reasons;
the availability of public target ranges on non-Federal land has been declining for a variety of reasons, including continued population growth and development near former ranges;
providing opportunities for target practice and marksmanship training at public target ranges on Federal and non-Federal land can help—
to promote enjoyment of shooting, recreational, and hunting activities; and
to ensure safe and convenient locations for those activities;
Federal law in effect on the date of enactment of this Act, including the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act ( 16 U.S.C. 669 et seq. ), provides Federal support for construction and expansion of public target ranges by making available to States amounts that may be used for construction, operation, and maintenance of public target ranges; and
it is in the public interest to provide increased Federal support to facilitate the construction or expansion of public target ranges.
The purpose of this Act is to facilitate the construction and expansion of public target ranges, including ranges on Federal land managed by the Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management.
Definition of public target range
In this Act, the term public target range means a specific location that—
is identified by a governmental agency for recreational shooting;
is open to the public;
may be supervised; and
may accommodate archery or rifle, pistol, or shotgun shooting.
Amendments to Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act
Section 2 of the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act ( 16 U.S.C. 669a ) is amended—
by redesignating paragraphs (2) through (8) as paragraphs (3) through (9), respectively; and
by inserting after paragraph (1) the following:
the term public target range means a specific location that—
may accommodate archery or rifle, pistol, or shotgun shooting;
Expenditures for management of wildlife areas and resources
Section 8(b) of the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act ( 16 U.S.C. 669g(b) ) is amended—
by striking (b) Each State and inserting the following:
Except as provided in paragraph (2), each State
in paragraph (1) (as so designated), by striking construction, operation, and inserting operation ;
in the second sentence, by striking The non-Federal share and inserting the following:
Non-Federal share
The non-Federal share
in the third sentence, by striking The Secretary and inserting the following:
; and
by inserting after paragraph (1) (as designated by paragraph (1) of this subsection) the following:
Notwithstanding the limitation described in paragraph (1), a State may pay up to 90 percent of the cost of acquiring land for, expanding, or constructing a public target range.
Firearm and bow hunter education and safety program grants
Section 10 of the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act ( 16 U.S.C. 669h–1 ) is amended—
in subsection (a), by adding at the end the following:
Allocation of additional amounts
Of the amount apportioned to a State for any fiscal year under section 4(b), the State may elect to allocate not more than 10 percent, to be combined with the amount apportioned to the State under paragraph (1) for that fiscal year, for acquiring land for, expanding, or constructing a public target range.
by striking subsection (b) and inserting the following:
Except as provided in paragraph (2), the Federal share of the cost of any activity carried out using a grant under this section shall not exceed 75 percent of the total cost of the activity.
Public target range construction or expansion
The Federal share of the cost of acquiring land for, expanding, or constructing a public target range in a State on Federal or non-Federal land pursuant to this section or section 8(b) shall not exceed 90 percent of the cost of the activity.
in subsection (c)(1)—
by striking Amounts made and inserting the following:
Except as provided in subparagraph (B), amounts made
by adding at the end the following:
Amounts provided for acquiring land for, constructing, or expanding a public target range shall remain available for expenditure and obligation during the 5-fiscal-year period beginning on October 1 of the first fiscal year for which the amounts are made available.
Limits on liability
Discretionary function
For purposes of chapter 171 of title 28, United States Code (commonly referred to as the Federal Tort Claims Act ), any action by an agent or employee of the United States to manage or allow the use of Federal land for purposes of target practice or marksmanship training by a member of the public shall be considered to be the exercise or performance of a discretionary function.
Civil action or claims
Except to the extent provided in chapter 171 of title 28, United States Code, the United States shall not be subject to any civil action or claim for money damages for any injury to or loss of property, personal injury, or death caused by an activity occurring at a public target range that is—
funded in whole or in part by the Federal Government pursuant to the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act (16 U.S.C. 669 et seq.); or
located on Federal land.
Sense of Congress regarding cooperation
It is the sense of Congress that, consistent with applicable laws and regulations, the Chief of the Forest Service and the Director of the Bureau of Land Management should cooperate with State and local authorities and other entities to carry out waste removal and other activities on any Federal land used as a public target range to encourage continued use of that land for target practice or marksmanship training.

Today's Doodle started with an idea from its subject, Fred Rogers: Each of us has it within ourselves to do or make something special. Centered on that premise, Mister Rogers' Neighborhood made a lasting impact on generations of young people. Like many of the Doodlers on our team, I grew up watching the show, and seeing Mister Rogers speaking to children about things like their unique potential is an experience we've carried throughout our careers.
When production first began on on Mister Rogers' Neighborhood 51 years ago today, children's television aired "a lot of nonsense and pies in faces," according to Mister Rogers. This meant Mister Rogers' Neighborhood was a radical change from how children were used to interacting with TV. Rogers' life mission was to "understand the inner needs of children," and indeed he succeeded. His show helped create a legacy of understanding, caring and respect for children.
When it came time to make the Doodle, we wanted to come up with a unique concept that did justice to the show's message that everyone matters. Our idea was to recreate the show's intro in a way that combined "the innovation of technology with the magic of the homemade," as Melissa Crowton, my fellow Doodler and co-director on the project, put it. In addition to creating, producing and hosting the show, Rogers was script writer, composer, lyricist, and main puppeteer. We drew inspiration from his DIY approach in crafting the story and design of the Doodle, incorporating everyday objects like popsicle sticks, yarn and crayon.
All of our effort was focused on making this celebration as representative of Rogers' work as possible. Partnering with with Fred Rogers Productions, The Fred Rogers Center, and BixPix Entertainment, the Doodle project team visited Pittsburgh and Rogers' hometown Latrobe, PA, to see the original set and memorabilia from the show. We rewatched numerous episodes and read interviews to understand how groundbreaking the show was at the time, and to capture its spirit to the best of our abilities. We created a storyboard that follows Mister Rogers as he visits familiar landmarks and make-believe friends, caring for those that he meets along the way. We put together designs for the many familiar faces, and handed them off to our collaborators at Bix Pix to craft the puppets, sets, and finally animate. The result, set to the iconic opening song of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood ("Won't You Be My Neighbor"), can be seen on the Google homepage today.
Mister Rogers was many things—a creator, a musician, a philosopher, a storyteller. But at his essence, and maybe most importantly, he was a friend. Throughout hundreds of episodes of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, Fred Rogers helped us feel good about who we are. We hope you walk away from today's Doodle knowing how special you can be just by being yourself.

ACU Pol Science Student Receives Prestigious Conservative Leadership Award in New York City
by ACU News | Oct 28, 2016 | Academics, Announcements, Featured, In The News
Arizona Christian University senior Jacob Richards was awarded the prestigious Richard and Helen DeVos Freedom Center Leadership Award at the Intercollegiate Studies Institute's (ISI) Dinner for Western Civilization in New York City on Thursday evening, Oct. 27.
The annual gala, held this year at the University Club of New York, honors the accomplishments of top student leaders, pays tribute to the greats of the American conservative movement, and strives to renew a commitment to raising up a new generation of leaders grounded in the timeless truths of Western civilization.
"We are thrilled for Jacob, who is an exceptional student of character who has great thinking, writing and leadership skills," said ACU President Len Munsil. "We're also excited for the Arizona Christian University Political Science program, only five years old, to be recognized already for producing the next generation of national conservative leaders."
"ACU's Political Science program has equipped me with the knowledge and scriptural grounding necessary for a career of meaningful Christian influence," Richards said. "Having mentors and professors who are deeply invested in my success has made all the difference in preparing me to transform culture with truth."
ACU's Political Science department is led by Dr. Tracy Munsil. The 2015 recipient of this award attended Baylor University, a major research institution with nearly 17,000 students.
ISI recognizes exceptional undergraduate students with the Richard and Helen DeVos Freedom Center Leadership Award. The award honors longtime trustee Rich DeVos, who cofounded Amway and owns the Orlando Magic NBA franchise, and whose philanthropy has underwritten the membership and recruiting efforts of ISI through the DeVos Freedom Center. These student award winners have inspired members of their campus communities.
Richards, a senior Political Science major, had the opportunity to attend ISI's leadership summit in Colorado Springs, CO during the summer of 2014 and wrote about his unforgettable experience. He shared that the most memorable parts of the summit were his interactions with ISI staff, excellent speakers from around the country, and fellow students.
"After such a great experience, we hope to encourage other ACU students to take advantage of the great resources available through the Intercollegiate Studies Institute," Richards said.
Richards went on to become the founding president of Arizona Christian University's own ISI Goldwater Society in 2014 and was named an ISI Honors Scholar in 2015. He was a Koch Summer Policy Fellow with Independent Institute in 2015 and is currently a Ronald Reagan Policy Fellow with the Goldwater Institute. Richards is also a contributor for Outset Network and an advocate for Young Voices Advocates. ACU is proud to celebrate Richards' many accomplishments, including this most recent award.

Tim Fazio
Tim Fazio – Director of Operations and Business Development
Director of Operations and Business Development
Tim has over 20 years of experience as an owner and operator of several companies in the construction, food and beverage, and healthcare industry. Tim started his entrepreneurial career in 1999 as the co-owner of Fazio Customs LLC and the sole owner of Entra Development LLC. Both Fazio Customs and Entra Development were general contracting companies dedicated to building custom residential homes ranging in value of $300K to $1.25M. Tim later founded Metropolitan Bartending LLC in 2002, a beverage catering company, which specialized in weddings and special events. Metropolitan Bartending serviced over 1,000 events in the greater Tucson area from 2002 – 2010. Tim's entrepreneurial spirit, experience as a home builder, and love of serving people, led him to design and build Heritage Manor LLC in 2009, a premier residential assisted living property in Catalina, AZ. The business was successfully sold in May 2017 which allowed Tim to pursue his goal of serving other business owners, their families, and employees.
In June 2017, Tim started working with business owners to grow and successfully exit their business to pursue what is most important to them. What keeps Tim up at night is knowing that many business owners do not have a network of reliable, honest and hardworking strategic advisors. For this reason, Tim works side-by-side with Sphere Partners to assist business owners with their goals and objectives. By combining Tim's operational and marketing expertise with Sphere Partners comprehensive exit strategies, wealth management and risk management solutions, business owners, their families and employees have the resources available to successfully execute their goals.
Tim is a native Tucsonan and attended The University of Arizona where he studied Business Administration. He currently lives in Tucson with his beautiful wife of 16 years and their two children. He is an outdoor enthusiast and avid golfer. His desire to give back to the Tucson community led him to recently join Empower Coalition as a founding Board Member. Empower Coalition is a 501(c)(3) non-profit whose mission is to improve lives in the greater Tucson community by empowering charitable organizations with necessary resources to carry out their missions.

Photoluminescent and superparamagnetic quantum dots
Quantum dots are semiconducting nanostructures which emit radiation over a narrow spectrum. This is caused by the restricted movement of excitons, formed when electrons are excited from the valence band into the conduction band leaving holes. When excitons relax light is emitted over a narrow spectrum due to the small crystal size, typically 2-50 nm, with the wavelength of light emitted dependent on the size.
Recent work by Biqiong Chen and Shelia MacNeil at the Polymer Centre, in collaboration with various researchers, have harnessed the narrow spectrum emission of quantum dots for the potential of medical imaging alongside drug delivery and photothermal therapy.
The GO quantum dots, composed of reduced graphene oxide-iron oxide, combined the superparamagnetic properties of iron oxide with the drug loading capabilities of graphene oxide. The quantum dots were found to be inherently photoluminescent and superparamagnetic alongside being biocompatible making the materials ideal for use as medical devices.
Photoluminescence is useful in providing detection of the materials by fluorescent imaging. Superparamagnetism allows the magnetic moment of the quantum dots to be changed on a nanoscale. Hence, drug release from quantum dots can be stimulated by applying an external magnetic field for targeted drug delivery. Superparamagnetism also allows imaging by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to aid the visualisation of tumours and image guided surgeries.
The GO quantum dots were loaded with the model drug lidocaine hydrochloride. The loading ratio of drug to quantum dots was 0.31:1 which was fully released in phosphate buffered saline solution over 8 hours indicating efficient drug elution.
Testing of the GO quantum dots over a range of concentrations with varying laser powers showed a maximum temperature increase of 50 °C. This large temperature increase would be useful for treating tumours by photothermal therapy, where heat is applied directly to tumours to damage the cancerous cells.

Conflict Escalates in Eastern Congo
Goma is relatively calm, but political solutions not forthcoming
Reason Staff | 11.27.2012 1:37 PM
For a city recently conquered by a rebel movement Human Rights Watch has accused of "widespread war crimes," Goma is, by all accounts, a fairly quiet place. On Monday, I talked to two NGO employees based in the capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo's North Kivu province, a city of up to 1 million inhabitants that was taken by the Rwandan-backed M23 rebel movement last week.
"Things have been relatively calm," said Dominic Keyzer of World Vision. Compared to the group's past atrocities, "the occupation itself is much more measured." Christina Corbett of Oxfam told me the city is returning to some semblance of normalcy—or to whatever normalcy is possible in a region that has basically been at war for 20 years — now that the initial shock of M23's offensive has worn off. "People are trying to get on with life. It isn't the beginning of the conflict, so Goma's no stranger to his kind of uncertainty […] the city has not ground to a halt, by any means."
Economic activity is resuming, even though the price of basic food staples has doubled. And while some sources have reported attacks on civil society targets, including the assassination of a local judge, there is no fighting in the streets, and M23 has had a light presence inside of Goma itself. "It doesn't feel like a heavily militarized city," said Corbett. "We're not seeing guys on every street corner." But the city still sits at the center of a vast and seemingly insoluble political and humanitarian crisis. As Keyzer pointed out, the fighting, which includes armed groups other than M23 and the Congolese military, has put parts of North Kivu out of the reach of humanitarian organizations. "My concern is that for all of these groups, what happens in the rural areas is far worse than what happens in the urban ones," he said, noting that his organization's biggest challenge is tending to internally displaced persons [IDPs] caught along the conflict's rapidly-shifting front lines.

A Gift with Resonance for Classical KC
Sarah Morris, general manager KCUR 89.3 and Classical KC 91.9 and Linda Mitchell, Ph.D.
Posted on July 19, 2022 July 19, 2022 by odellpa
UMKC Professor Emerita Linda Mitchell, Ph.D. grew up listening to classical music.
"We lived in the Philadelphia area, and we had wonderful classical music stations there, even before public radio," she says. "I was a teenager when public radio started, and NPR's programming became a lifeline for me."
Mitchell, who has lived mostly on the east coast, was accustomed to having classical music available on the radio around the clock. She's been in Kansas City since 2008 and has been a sustaining member of KCUR since she arrived. She relishes KCUR's regular programming—especially Chuck Haddix's Fish Fry—but missed that easy access to anytime classical music. So, when Mitchell learned about plans for 91.9 Classical KC, a sister station featuring classical music with a goal to create local programming that featured the Kansas City culture and music scene, she was thrilled. That it launched in July of 2020, at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, was a gift.
"It's not so much that classical music is always relaxing, but there's something about the cadences and structure and the technical aspects of classical music of all eras, that actually settle me down. It's a wonderful accompaniment to work and a great thing to listen to as I fall asleep."
While Classical KC's regular programming was her original draw, Mitchell became more invested in the station once she found out that a goal of the station was to increase diversity in both staffing and programming selections. Already committed to supporting the station, conversations with the station's development team led to her endowed gift supporting local programming.
"I think that philanthropy for public radio stations can be envisioned in two separate lanes. One is the bottom line fundraising – such as membership drives – that has to happen, but is focused on meeting immediate needs."
Mitchell sees the other lane as long range solutions that provide security for institutions that create value for the community.
"The only way to do that is through endowments where the principal can grow and then the income can be used. With the growth of the fund, eventually it might replace some of that desperate fundraising that goes on every year."
Mitchell sees an endowment as an optimistic testament that the organization is going to survive and thrive. David Fulk, director of philanthropic giving, confirms that gifts such as Michell's do just that.
"The significance of Mitchell's endowed fund is providing long term security for the station which, in turn, will ensure that future generations of listeners have access to local classical music programming," he says.
Sarah Morris, general manager KCUR 89.3 and Classical KC 91.9, says support like Mitchell's is essential to public radio in Kansas City.
"The vast majority of our funding comes from local donors like Linda, and we wouldn't be here without them. Particularly with Classical KC, we rely on the people in our community with a passion for classical music who want to ensure that everyone has free access now — and in the future," she says.
Mitchell sees herself as a pragmatist.
"This is the craziest center for art and culture I have lived in in my life," Mitchell says. "Kansas City is bursting at the seams with all kinds of cultural events and spaces: it is actually a little overwhelming! It made sense that Classical KC wanted to tap into that energy and promote the diversity of the city as well the idea that classical music is for everyone."

The Christ Church steeple dates to 1754 and is one of the few wooden structures of its kind still standing from the Colonial Era.
A cornerstone of Philadelphia's landscape along the Delaware River, the Christ Church steeple was the highest structure in America for over 50 years. Since the Revolutionary era, the steeple has served as a symbol of revolutionary spirit and religious tolerance. In 2016, Christ Church Preservation Trust conducted a steeple investigation and learned that the icon was leaning two feet to the northwest and needed structural support to endure for centuries more. The Trust then commissioned the architectural firm John Milner and Associates and structural engineers Keast & Hood to restore and rehabilitate the steeple and its supporting tower.
Phase One of the project, the interior restoration of the steeple and its supporting brick tower, was funded by The Pew Charitable Trusts, The National Fund for Sacred Places, The Raynier Foundation, The Crystal Trust, The Dolfinger-McMahon Foundation, William B. Dietrich Foundation and major individual donors.
Two weeks later, the world watched in horror as fire consumed the Notre-Dame cathedral's spire and roof. On April 17, 2019, after fielding questions about fire protection for the Christ Church steeple, the Trust decided to test its exterior water curtain, first installed in 1908. "One reason we did this was to show symbolic solidarity with Notre Dame," Barbara Hogue, executive director of the Christ Church Preservation Trust, told the Associated Press. "But it's also because we're about to start renovations here, too, and we thought it was really prudent to start by testing our fire system, to be sure that, in the event something happens, we were prepared." Hundreds of onlookers and members of the local and national press gathered outside to witness the test, and the drill ran on the front page of The Philadelphia Inquirer the following day.
As it prepares for steeple renovations this June, Christ Church Preservation Trust continues to look for patriotic individuals, foundations and societies that can help it raise the final $605,000 needed for the steeple campaign. You can help conserve this national icon by donating here.

The Interior Ministry is drafting a law which will enable public spaces to be filmed for surveillance purposes as a reaction to deadly attacks in July, according to a newspaper report.
Interior Minister Thomas de Maizière plans to enable the placement of CCTV surveillance in public spaces such as shopping centres, sports facilities and public transport, according to a report by the Ruhr Nachrichten.
The draft law reportedly proposes a change to privacy regulations to state that public safety "must be given special consideration".
"After the incidents in Munich and Ansbach in the summer of 2016, it has become necessary to give greater weight to security concerns," the draft law states, according to the newspaper.
In Munich on July 22nd, a teenager attacked the Olympia shopping centre with a gun, killing nine people and injuring 36 others before taking his own life.
Investigators have suggested that the gunman was inspired by Norwegian right-wing extremist Anders Breivik.
Two days later, a Syrian asylum seeker set off an explosive device in the northern Bavarian town of Ansbach, killing himself and wounding 15 others.
Newspaper reports suggest that terror group Isis was involved in the attack.
The attacks were followed by a heated public debate on what measures could be taken to ensure that public safety is better guarded, with increases in surveillance being mooted along with the internal deployment of the military.
But the proposed change to data protection laws has already come in for criticism from opposition politicians.
Konstantin von Notz, deputy leader of the Green Party, accused de Maizière of "unwaveringly" sticking to the build up of CCTV despite the questionable security benefit.
More video surveillance provides "no added security value" but rather poses "new dangers to constitutional rights", von Notz told Handelsblatt.
Data protection officials in individual German states would have the final say over whether CCTV could be set up in their spheres of authority. The Interior Ministry is reportedly sceptical that they would accept its usage.
The law is to be discussed by the cabinet in November.

Q: Why, when I append to an empty array in PHP, is the index 2? I have a method in a class that will append an item to an array member of the class.  When the array member is empty (but previously had two items in it at index 1 and index 2) and I call the method, the item is inserted at index 2.  Why is that?  If anyone doesn't know right off the bat, I can provide MANY more details.

A: If I understand correctly your question, you are in this situation :
You first have an array like this one :
$data = array(
    1 => 'abcd',
    2 => 'efg',
);
var_dump($data);

You the unset all the elements :
unset($data[1], $data[2]);
var_dump($data);

And when you insert data like this :
$data[] = 'glop';
var_dump($data);

It's not put at indice 0, but 2 (actually, it's put at indice 3, it seems -- the last existing indice, plus one), which give this array in the end :
array(1) {
  [3]=>
  string(4) "glop"
}

If that is what you mean, this behaviour is described in the documentation of array :

As mentioned above, if no key is
  specified, the maximum of the existing
  integer indices is taken, and the new
  key will be that maximum value plus 1.
  If no integer indices exist yet, the
  key will be 0 (zero).
Note that the maximum integer key used
  for this need not currently exist in
  the array. It need only have existed
  in the array at some time since the
  last time the array was re-indexed.

(and there is an example)
Hope I understood the question right (else, can you provide an example of code, actual output, and the output you'd expect ?), and that this helps :-)

A: Are you sure the array is empty? If you print_r($obj->memberArray), do you see Array()? What is the value of count($obj->memberArray)?
Also, are the keys meaningful? If not, and you are expecting the array to be empty you should be able to safely run $obj->memberArray = array_keys($obj->memberArray) to reset the keys. I have a hunch that PHP does weird stuff when dealing with arrays with mixed (some numeric, some string) indexes, and may begin reserving indexes in that case, appending after the last numeric index. Just a hunch, haven't tested this.

Hey everyone! Hope you're having a lovely Sunday. Today I thought that I would do another iPhone app post on all the apps I use however I'm going to focus on what my favourite iPhone apps are for blogging. I put a huge chunk of my life into my blog at the moment as I'm still waiting for my job to start with British Airways so I thought why not show you the apps I use for my blog whilst I'm on the go and not on my laptop. Keep reading to find out more.
Echofone is basically a twitter app and I prefer using this over the actual twitter app as I just find it so much better and easier to use. Twitter isn't complicated at all to use but I just find echofone fool proof. You don't get every single interaction in the notification section either and I just prefer the layout and look of the app over twitter. If you follow me then you will know I'm always on here. I love posting my links to posts on here and just talking to everyone else on it. Definitely my most used app.
I absolutely love instagram. I'm constantly posting photos on there whether it's a selfie, photos of my friends or family, outfits, or even food you can find it all on there. I also think it's amazing to have in terms of following other bloggers and finding new bloggers to follow. I love posting photos from my blog posts on there too and using hash-tags for beauty bloggers or lifestyle bloggers as I find it's amazing for getting traffic to your blog. Definitely an important one to have on my phone.
I love Pinterest for posting photos from my posts on there but also to just find different inspiration whether it's beauty or fashion it's all on there. I'm a little bit addicted to it not going to lie. In the last month alone I think I've pinned over 1500 images. Whoops! But I absolutely love it and you can find anything on there. I love going on there and looking for photos for blogposts where I haven't taken photos myself just to illustrate the post a little bit. It's just so good to have and recently a lot of my traffic has been coming from there which I am extremely happy about!
The one thing every blogger has out there no matter which blog you have as this is where people will go to follow you. I absolutely love this app as it's super easy to read and follow different blogs in different categories too. I also love the analytics section as you can see where your blog is ranked. It's just an amazing app to have even if it does have a lot of glitches occasionally.
This is basically like pinterest except I don't really use it as much but it's amazing to have if you're looking for inspirational pictures or photos to illustrate a post. I'd definitely recommend getting this as it's an amazing back up for when pinterest doesn't pull through.
I haven't used this app in a while however I think this is amazing for doing different collages of photos if you do a post about all the posts you've written that month. You can just put a photo from each post into here and upload it to blogger. So simple and affective. I also love putting collages of me and my friends in here too to use as wallpaper.
This is basically the blogspot app which I don't really use as often as I should however if I have an idea for a blog post I'll write down the notes in this app and save them so when I log into my laptop I can open it up and finish where I left off. Definitely a useful one to have.
If you're a list maker then you need this app in your life. I won't lie here I've never really been into lists however I do make lists for blog posts and tick them off as I go. However you can do so much on here, I'd highly recommend it. It's literally heaven in a phone for list makers.
The best app for editing photos on your iPhone. Whether you want to brighten an app or add different filters or just spruce up a photo however you wish then this app will do just the trick. I mainly use this for brightening up my blog photos before posting them on instagram.
A perfect app if you do outfit idea posts or wishlists as you can just create a little collage and then post it onto blogger. I tend to use this on the computer more than on my iPhone but it's still a really good app to use if you're on the go and don't have time to do it on a computer.
So there are my favourite iPhone apps for blogging. I know this is based around my phone as I have an iPhone but if you don't have an iPhone maybe there are similar apps available for your phones too! Most of these are free too so you don't need to worry about forking out loads for them. Free and extremely brilliant apps! If there are any other apps you can think of that are good for blogging then be sure to leave them in the description below as I'm always on the look out for more apps.
What iPhone apps do you use for blogging?
Love posts like this. Downloading Wunderlist as I type!
