4 charged protest marchers accept pre-trial diversion agreements
RICHMOND, Ind. — Four Black Lives Matter protesters charged with misdemeanors after a Sept. 5 march have reached pre-trial diversion agreements with prosecutors.
Martin Hancock, 48, of the 100 block of South West 48th Street; Elizabeth Nicholson, 30, of the 1200 block of South West 15th Street; MacKenzie J. Philpot, 22, of the 1200 block of South Q Street; and Benjamin Lowell Guard, 23, of the 400 block of North West J Street filed Dec. 1 with Wayne County Superior Court 3 agreements they reached with the Wayne County Prosecutor's Office.
The prosecutor's office agrees to not prosecute the Class B misdemeanors filed against them as long as they meet program conditions. The first condition is that they admit they committed the offenses with which they are charged as reflected in the charging information.
►3rd misdemeanor filed against driver involved in protest march incident
►Group calls for charges to be dropped against Black Lives Matter protesters
►Driver in protest march incident enters not guilty pleas to 2 misdemeanors
►Initial hearings set for 6 charged regarding protest march incident
►6 charged with misdemeanors regarding Sept. 5 protest march incident
►RPD asks for public's patience as investigation into car hitting protesters continues
►Vehicle runs into Black Lives Matter protesters; RPD seeks witnesses, video
Hancock, Nicholson and Philpot allegedly admitted to Richmond Police Department investigators that they blocked traffic to allow marchers to safely cross North A Street after the traffic light for the westbound traffic had changed to green, according to the affidavit of probable cause. They are charged with obstruction of traffic, with the charging information alleging that each, "with the intent to obstruct vehicular traffic, did obstruct vehicular traffic by standing in North A Street."
Guard, who organized the protest march, is charged with aiding, inducing or causing obstruction of traffic. His charge says that he knowingly or intentionally caused the others charged "to commit the offense of obstruction of traffic by organizing and/or leading a protest march."
Each also agrees to pay a $274 program fee, to complete eight hours of community service with a nonprofit corporation and not to commit a criminal offense for 180 days.
Their attorney, Jeff Arnold, filed a motion for each asking Judge Darrin Dolehanty to accept the pre-trial agreements and vacate scheduled pre-trial conferences and bench trials. In each case, Dolehanty did so.
Case records do not indicate that a fifth marcher, Elijag D. Gamber, 20, of the 800 block of National Road West has reached an agreement with the prosecutor's office. Gamber also is charged with Class B misdemeanor obstruction of traffic, and he has a bench trial scheduled Jan. 22 in his case.
Gamber is the listed victim in two of the three misdemeanor charges filed against Joshua Carey, 29, of the the 400 block of South West 18th Street. Carey allegedly drove his vehicle into southbound protesters on North Seventh Street who were crossing North A Street against the traffic signal.
Gamber is the listed victim of a Class A misdemeanor charge of leaving the scene of an accident that caused bodily injury and of a new Class B misdemeanor charge of criminal recklessness filed last week. The recklessness charging information alleges Carey created a substantial risk of bodily injury to Gamber by driving the vehicle into the group of people.
Nicholson is listed as the victim of a Class B misdemeanor charge of leaving the scene of an accident filed against Carey, who told investigators he did not know he had struck any pedestrians, according to the affidavit of probable cause.
Carey, who has filed a motion requesting a jury trial, has waived the initial hearing on the new charge. He has a trial scheduled for Jan. 29 in the case.
Penalties for a Class A misdemeanor include up to a year in jail and a fine of up to $5,000 as established by the Indiana legislature. Class B misdemeanor penalties include up to 180 days in jail and a fine up to $1,000.

The Legal Battle for Predator Takes an Interesting Turn
Posted June 10, 2021 7:36 PM Voodoo Magic22 Comments
The battle for the US Copyright of Predator between the original creators Jim & John Thomas and 20th Century Studios took an interesting turn today, when a Motion Hearing (expected to be a dispute over a preliminary injunction which would halt new Disney-era Predator content from continuing until all legal disputes were resolved) instead became a dispute over where the case belonged.
Magistrate Judge Laurel Beeler opened the hearing opposite Daniel M. Petrocelli (legal council for Disney/20th Century Studios) and Marc Toberoff (legal council representing the Thomas Brothers) wanting to hear why the case belonged in her district. As best as we could ascertain, similar or duplicate lawsuits by both parties were also filed in the Central District Court, the area where the contract agreement between the Thomas Brothers and 20th Century Fox originally took place (for the rights to the "Hunters" spec script back in 1986.)
Legal representation for 20th Century Studios argued that the Central district (not there in the Northern district) was actually the proper venue for this matter. They also believed the case should be dismissed, due to the improper duplicate filing.
But legal representation for the Thomas Brothers asked the Judge to rethink this position. Marc Toberoff argued that entertainment cases were a dime a dozen in Central District, and because of that, the courts are more congested. This argument seemed to imply that if the case was moved there, it would take a longer amount of time to be resolved. Also Toberoff argued (among other things) that this copyright case was not a location specific case, plus it would get the attention it deserved if it was heard in in the Northern district.
Additional support for both parties' arguments were previously filed but not discussed in this hearing.
So what happens now? The Judge decided not to immediately make a decision, but rather take the matter under submission and make her decision at a later date.

I guess you didn't learn anything from Terminator: Dark Turd. Having a lead female in a movie is perfectly okay, look at the alien movies, but when you make it about gender norms and all that, it's a movie headed for the toilet. Watchmen series was woke as hell and was dogshit. Terminator: Dark Fate was woke as hell, it bombed. Just make a normal ass predator movie that's scary and not about gender norms. Just f**king fight the predator and shut the f**k up.
I wanted to post about the Watchmen TV series on AVP Galaxy & this is what I could find.
I enjoyed the series. It is pushy with its message but I got used to it. Also, such a topic (put in a blunt way) is not new to science fiction whether from Deep Space 9 all the way back to Star Trek TOS, where the sci-fi genre can have a clear message of social justice.
While Terminator: Dark Fate bombed in terms of box office, the Watchmen TV series was a ratings success and it received 4 Primetime Emmy Awards and 7 Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards. So, I don't agree that the Watchmen TV series was "dogshit" in terms of the skill in how it was put together & how it connected with the original Watchmen material.
As for the original topic, we are talking about Disney here. With action/adventure, Disney cares about Marvel & Star Wars because that's where the most money is.
With the possible Predator movie, I would appreciate if anything new Predator or Alien related comes out of Disney. That would be better than nothing imo.

I believe you're thinking residual payments (if negotiated), where licensing fees tend to be a bigger chunk of the pie and paid out even if it doesn't make a profit.
I'm pretty sure they're still paid for derivative works (I mean, they're credited at least) but true, it would be residuals prior to this mess getting sorted.
Yep! Learning that this relatively new law was for transfered copyrights 1978-present, and O'Bannon apparently sold Alien prior to that.
True, although I imagine if his estate had been able to use this provision Fox might've been much quicker sorting it out
Quote from: SiL on Jun 12, 2021, 01:40:57 PM
It seems they really want that one more Predator film in the catalog free of licensing royalties.
It's not even free of licensing royalties, it's just at whatever rate was agreed on 35 years ago - which I'm guessing wasn't great, hence the Brothers' actions.
Man, Alien fans hungry for new content don't know the apparent bullet they dodged...
Which bullet? Alien was too early to be eligible for this provision. Or do you mean something else?
Quote from: SuperiorIronman on Jun 12, 2021, 01:17:15 PM
Don't they have a date setup for settling? I could've sworn they did and the recent thing was just getting the other two dates dropped.
Do you mean the required meeting of both parties that California law requires prior to the Case Management Conference? If so yes, it's designed as a forum to hopefully work out their differences independently of the Court. It definitely gives them an opportunity to settle, if they can and are willing to come to an agreement. That's the million dollar question S.I.!
I say this assuming they didn't sign something giving them royalties for just a few years, as you'd expect that to have been mentioned in the court filings.

If Disney gets their way, I hope Skulls is a big success. Because if it fails, I can see Disney being in no rush to strike a deal / fine with letting the property languish in perpetuity.
Disney/TCS doesn't really have any option but to renegotiate if they want to exploit the property for perpetuity, since they don't seem to argue against the 2023 date, so it does seem a bit weird they aren't just trying to renegotiate now
The Brothers have nothing to gain by not renegotiating, though, so it's not like a deal is inconceivable either.
Quote from: skhellter on Jun 12, 2021, 11:29:10 AM
Sad that Disney just doesn't seem willing to make a deal with the Thomas
without dragging them through lengthy painful bureaucracy.
This is to the root of my fear for Predator and AvP the inevitable day the Thomas Brothers do get the US Copyright back, skhellter. It's easy to take things personally, especially after Fox/Disney waiting four years to reject the Thomas Bros' *termination letter for errors. Sometimes the animus is so bad, the question becomes how is anyone going to work together after all this? Because reclaiming just the Hunters license only in the US means they will have to work together for "Predator" to continue.

Is it silly?
Looks like a lawyer exploring avenues to give their client the best opportunities.
https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/business-news/predator-rights-fight-1234966100/amp/
THR reporting this as an early advantage for Disney. Apparently the Judge is set to side with Disney in regards to where this should be filed.
IMO lawyers for the Bros. already stumbling and filing in the wrong district with silly justification.
I mean realistically the worst case scenario is the Brothers get the rights and TCS renegotiates for those rights and life moves the f**k on.
Ironically, having a film tied up in legal limbo gives the Brothers more bargaining power than they would have otherwise.
If Skulls does complete I wouldn't be surprised if it slipped out like the Roger Corman Fantastic Four and Predator has a mysterious 5th entry floating around burnt to a disk you can only find in some back area of an anime convention.
Until or unless an injunction is passed, the status quo is for Twentieth Century Studios to keep exploiting the property.
If the injunction is passed, we have an answer - no content until the matter is settled. If it's not passed, we pretty much also have an answer - keep on trucking until the matter is settled. TCS has already shown they're gonna keep trucking along until they're legally forced to stop.
F13 was a messier case of whether the provision was even allowed to be invoked. The issue here seems a bit clearer-cut -- did they make an error on their earliest filing or not. If they did, TCS and Disney have until 2023 to renegotiate.
Quote from: goose_3387 on Jun 10, 2021, 08:29:38 PM
So Skulls continues to potentially film the whole movie that may never get a release depending on the delayed verdict?
I can't even imagine working under those conditions, knowing any time the proverbial shoe can drop. So stressful....

So, I don't want to speak too soon but could this be like the Friday the 13th lawsuit in limbo back n forth no resolve for years and years.
Unfortunately, I'm starting to get that vibe too, and it just makes me ill.

Interesting Turn? More like a statement about legal legislation and their prioritizations per locale. I'm not entirely impressed with this. Sounds like its more of a State issue than a legal one.
I guess things we find interesting is relative to us as individuals, but I don't believe reporting on any of this legal craziness is intended to impress you, to be honest. Rather just to inform.
The important matter here would be whether or not content is allowed to be made even if this does drag on for years. Well, at least until 2023. This is such a frustrating mess because we don't have any definitives here, only speculations. At least with F13 you KNOW content can't be made, at least under the Jason Voorhees name. Here it's a "will they/won't they" be allowed to keep making Predator content during this lawsuit. Today we could have known, but it just seems like this judge didn't want to handle something of this nature. So possibly on to someone else, and now we're left wondering, if it does, how THEY may proceed in determining an injunction. The legal system can sometimes move slow, even when something requires immediate resolve. As someone mentioned, we may very well have SKULLS complete filming before we get an answer. And then it could be "well, the film won't see the light of day now" or "man, that was close, but here's the release date!"
Post-COVID that's every set at the moment

Decision-making in co-operative businesses is regulated by provincial and federal governments. Certain decisions a co-operative and its directors may make have special requirements set out in legislation. For instance, voting to accept a report will follow a different procedure than voting to amend the bylaws. The decision-making processes co-operatives use is influenced by Robert's Rules of Order which reflects procedure used by most Canadian governments and corporations.
Ordinary resolutions (sometimes called general resolutions) only require a simple majority of votes to be accepted (50% + 1) and are used to decide 'ordinary' business at a meeting. Ordinary business may include accepting reports or minutes, approving expenditures not included in a budget, or making appointments.
Special resolutions require a super majority (2/3 of votes) to be accepted and are used to decide 'special' business at a meeting. Special business includes anything that would not normally be included at a meeting and may include items like amalgamating with another organization, dismissing a director, amending bylaws, or dissolving the co-op. Special business that is to be included at a meeting must be included in the notice of the meeting.
Provincial legislation governs the type of resolution required for various decisions. Check the Act or Regulations for clarification on the necessary procedure for different decisions or actions.
Title: The title of a resolution should give a general sense of its purpose/intention and speak to its practical implications. For example a resolution that wants to change a bylaw that determines quorum may simply state: Resolution amending section 18 (Quorum) of the Bylaws.
Preamble: Resolutions usually rely on preparatory statements that demonstrate the need for the resolution, often beginning with the word 'whereas'. For example, a resolution seeking to change the number of members required for quorum might state: Whereas the co-operative wants to ensure quorum is achieved at members' meetings.
Resolution: After the preamble comes the actual decision that is being proposed. This typically begins with the statement, Therefore be it resolved that… and is followed by the decision or statement.
Date and Signature: The resolution should contain space for the president (or chair of the meeting) to sign and date the resolution indicating its acceptance. If the resolution is defeated, it should not be signed, and its defeat should be recorded in the minutes.
If you need more information about decision-making in a co-operative or help drafting resolutions, please contact us to find out how we can help.


When it comes to reporting on climate change, the nation's four most widely read newspapers are being influenced by management's political positions, despite the tradition in American print journalism that editorials should not have any effect on straight news coverage.
A new study led by Rutgers University on climate change coverage at The New York Times, The Washington Post, USA Today and The Wall Street Journal, found that this was particularly the case at The Wall Street Journal, which reported less on the impact of climate change than these national news competitors.
The study, "Polarizing news? Representations of threat and efficacy in leading U.S. newspapers coverage of climate change," appears in the journal Public Understanding of Science.
Feldman and her co-authors, P. Sol Hart of the University of Michigan and Tijana Milosevic of Norway's University of Oslo, monitored the climate change coverage in the four newspapers over six years, from January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2011. The Post and the Times are widely known to be liberal in their editorials; The Journal is known to be conservative, and USA Today is often considered middle-of-the-road.
Fox Channel founder Rupert Murdoch acquired The Wall Street Journal by purchasing Dow Jones in 2007.
The researchers reviewed 642 news articles and found that The Wall Street Journal discussed climate change impacts about half as frequently in its stories as the other the papers. The Wall Street Journal was much more likely to discuss the action that might be taken to address climate change, however, doing so in 93.3 percent of its climate change stories. But the paper was likely to frame possible actions in a negative light – as the subject of conflict between environmentalists and business, or between citizens and government, for example.
The New York Times and The Washington Post discussed actions to address climate change in 83.6 percent and 82.3 percent of their stories, respectively. USA Today addressed such actions in 81.2 percent of its stories on climate change.
Feldman said that all four papers shared one great failing: They didn't usually report on climate change and possible ways to address it in the same stories.

Grintek Limited responded to the plight of two of SA`s top junior chess players selected to participate in the Junior World Chess Championship in Azerbaijan, later this month, by contributing R10 000 towards travelling and tournament costs.
Johannes Mabusela (18) and Cecile van der Merwe (16) won the Africa Junior Chess Championships in Botswana in December 2002. This meant that the two qualified to participate in two major international tournaments - the Dubai Open Chess Championships and the Under-20 Junior World Chess Championships.
After missing the Dubai event due to lack of funding, it seemed a great pity not to have SA represented at the Junior World Chess Championships. It was at this point that Grintek decided to adopt their cause.
Xinyamisi Shemane-Diseko, head of corporate affairs at Grintek, said: "Grintek strives to achieve excellence in our business and these two players, having showed their mettle, are symbolic of this excellence. We believe that they deserved an opportunity to challenge the world`s best under-20 chess players."
Mabusela, a student at a technical training centre in Pretoria-West and the son of a domestic worker, and Van der Merwe, a scholar with the highest rating in chess for South African women, have a talent and passion for the game of chess that should not be dampened due to financial constraints.
"The Junior World Championship is going to be an exciting and thrilling challenge, and I hope to make SA proud," said an excited Mabusela at the Grintek send-off function ahead of their departure on 18 June.
"It would be a pity if these outstanding young South Africans again missed the opportunity to participate in an international tournament and we are delighted that we have been instrumental in making it possible for their dreams to come true," continued Shemane-Diseko.
The Junior World Championships in Azerbaijan will be the second opportunity for Mabusela to participate abroad. "I am very excited about testing my ability and skill against the best in the world."
"We will be watching these two talented individuals with interest at the Junior World Championships and wish them all the very best of luck in the weeks ahead. This tournament will be an opportunity for SA to prove that we are a highly talented nation," concluded Shemane-Diseko.
Grintek Limited is a technology group listed on the JSE Securities Exchange of southern Africa, and addresses three main market segments, namely telecommunications and selected niche markets within industrial and defence electronics. The core competencies of the group are founded in its strong technology base. This platform has allowed the group to develop internationally competitive products, while concurrently representing world-class partners in the southern African region and adding engineering value by customisation, integration and technical support.

Ställbergs Gruva was in its time the deepest iron ore mine in Europe: the main shaft was 1072 meters deep. The mine was run by Ställbergsbolagen, and was shut down in 1977 by the CEO Jan Stenbeck. After the shut-down, he started the TV channel ZTV and the telecom company Comviq (Tele 2). The mining community was defenseless in these changing conditions. Ställberg was during the mining era a flourishing community, but now has just around 100 inhabitants.
Today, the mining area is in a process of transformation to become a place for various arts and thoughts, run by the art group The non existent Center (TNEC). In the group there are persons with a background in, among others, art, production, music, design, direction, choreography, philosophy, human ecology, architecture, carpentry, energy engineering, psychology, human geography, writing and gastronomy.
The group has worked at the mine since 2012, and moved in for continuous work in the spring 2013. Residences, festivals, documentary community theatre, courses and exhibitions are examples of activities. The past years, over 300 artists from 15 countries have participated at the mine.
In 2015, the The non existent Resources, associated to TNEC, bought 9 hectares of land and the buildings around the mine. The ambition is to transform the mine area to a place for cultural and social purposes, with new solutions for energy production.
TNEC often works on common issues with transparency between different fields of work, languages and experiences.
The work in Ställberg is described as a performative social survey in the personal, local and global, where the past time and present complex capitalist society of consumption can be understood through longer and ongoing artistic and social processes.

on the Heating of Parked Cars
Initial observation:
It is summer, and warm temperatures come with warnings about the dangers of parked cars and how quickly they heat up.
What are the heating curves for a parked car, on a warm & sunny day?
Expectation:
It is expected that the completely closed car will heat up faster than an open car, which in turn should heat faster than a car parked in shade. However, it is unknown how hot the maximums will be. Qualitatively, it is known that entering a closed parked car can be quite unpleasant, especially since the Primary Testing Facility's chariot has black leather seats.
1 mobile car
a temperature probe, ideally with transmitter and base station (we used a RediCheck Remote Cooking Thermometer ).
starting from a parked car that hasn't been used; take the car for a drive with the AC on or the windows open, to cool off the car interior. Re-park the car.
measure & record the local air temperature
measure & record the starting temperature inside the car
close the probe inside the car (windows closed)
for our residential geometry, the transmitter connected to the probe was placed ontop of the car, and the probe was suspended from the driver's headrest
record the internal temperature of the car every 1-5 minutes, until the air temperature reaches what you like your steaks cooked to (assuming the fair reader is a red-meat-a-vore), or the temperature levels off (whichever occurs first).
repeat steps 1-6 with a car that has windows + sunroof open. All four windows were opened to create a 4-6 inch gap.
repeat steps 1-6 with a closed car parked in the shade.
optional: enjoy beers & burritos while the car is parked in the shade (in our case, under a parking deck)
The Primary Testing Facility's chariot has a dark burgundy ("wine") paint, and an internal volume of 91.4 cubic ft. The interior is black leather (not our first choice, it was purchased used…).
Temperature versus time data were plotted to obtain the figure below:
Heating curves for the air inside a parked car under different conditions.
The initial environmental air temperature in all tests was 84°F. For the car parked in the shade, the immediate surrounding temperature was measured at 79°F, but atmospheric temperature where the sunny trials were held was still 84°F . The temperature difference between the shaded under-parking structure vs. our standard parking area, could be due to proximity to a water body. The shaded region utilized for this experiment was closer to a waterway than our normal parking plot.
The dip seen at the end of the open-window trial was caused by a transient cloud. Otherwise, the trial periods were relatively consistently sunny.
Surprise Results:
After almost an hour, the closed car still had not leveled off in temperature! There is also a huge difference between a closed car parked in the shade and an open car parked in the sun. Parking in the shade prevented the car's interior from breaching the 100°F mark, even though none of the windows were open.
A closed car, parked in the sun, rises in temperature very quickly. Most people who own cars would find that qualitative statement obvious, however, the fact that temperatures breach 100°F in a closed car in under 5 minutes is pretty impressive. Here at the primary testing facility, we cook our steaks to 125°F. The closed car hit that at 35 minutes.
While the open window car did not get above 110°F, it did hit 100°F in 7 minutes; not too much different than the completely closed car. Given that heat stroke occurs in Humans when body temperature is driven over 104°F, and dogs when their body temps hit 109°F, environmental conditions in parked cars do get dangerously hot very quickly. An article about dogs claims that "On an 85-degree day it takes only 10 minutes for the interior of your parked car to climb to 102 degrees. In a half hour, it can reach 120 degrees." In our trials, the parked & closed car had reached 111°F in 10 minutes, and was over 120°F in 30 minutes. While the quoted 102°F was spot on for our open car trial at 10 minutes, with the windows open, the car did not get above 107°F during the recording period. However, considering that dogs do not sweat, and generally rely on the environment being cooler than their internal temperature to cool off via panting, 107°F would still be dangerous for an animal who's normal body temp is generally under 102°F.
How does car color or internal car volume affect the heating curves?
How does dappled shade (i.e. under a tree) compare to complete shade?
How does relative humidity affect the results? (water is a powerful component of the greenhouse effect.)
….can you can you cook a steak via the sous vide method in a closed car on a sunny day?

THE TRAVELLING LITERATURE FESTIVAL
KATHAKAR - INTERNATIONAL STORYTELLERS FESTIVAL
The festival aims to preserve and promote the ancient art of storytelling. It stems from the idea that before there were books there were stories. The festival annually provides a common platform for storytellers from India and abroad to come together and share stories from around the world.
Whilst the storytelling scene has seen a revival in the west, in India were it was part of the community is on the verge of extinction. While some Indian storytellers are the last in the tradition practicing the art form, the others are constantly seeing dwindling students.
The festival therefore works with the dual aim of creating a performance space and creating new audience which would hopefully reap into future practitioners as well.
The festival is organised every year in Delhi since 2011 earlier at India Habitat Centre and since 2013 at the Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts (IGNCA) as a three day long weekend festival.
The festival hosts evening sessions for open audience ranging from children to the elderly. Morning sessions are hosted for school students from both private and state schools. Panel discussions and workshops are also organised for aspiring and professsional storytellers.
A section of the festival is also hosted in various schools across Delhi and Uttarakhand.

Q: How to remove a product from WooCoomerce On our site we are using WooCommerce and the Subscription extension and this is working fine.  However, we have recently decided that we are going to remove our subscription service.  But what I am concerned about is how to properly remove the subscription setup.
I have manually gone thru and cancelled any active subscriptions so they will no longer be billed.  And on a future date (to make sure people have access till the end of their current billing cycle) we plan to completely remove subscriptions.
Would removing the subscriptions extension plugin cause problems?   What would be the best method of removing the subscription products (currently I have set the subscription item to out of stock and also set it to private so no more orders can be placed).  If I delete the subscription product completely would that affect the sales reports (I am guessing it would as the product would no longer exists).
Also how would deleting a product affect orders where that product was purchased?  Would the order just simply show no items (but keep the totals)?
Thanks in advance!

A: I would delete every subscription product, just go to your woocommerce products and filter by the category you set your subscriptions too and delete them all.
Then on the day which your last sub expires remove the plugin in the normal method.

A: If you have them as out of stock and private/hidden, that should be good enough until all the subs are finished. I wouldn't remove them as products until at least the last orders are created. If you do, they may not generate.

Conservationist: Dr. Osvel Hinojosa Huerta
Osvel Hinojosa Huerta has been working for over 15 years to bring water back into the Colorado River Delta. Restoring just one to three percent of the water will have an enormous impact on wetlands.
5 - 12+
Geography, Physical Geography
By Alyssa Samson
Dr. Osvel Hinojosa Huerta is a conservationist and 2012 Emerging Explorer. He works with environmental coalitions, governments, businesses, and citizen groups to resurrect the delta of the Colorado River. Restoring the delta wetlands, near the Gulf of California in Mexico, will contribute to the area's biodiversity as well as its economy.
Despite growing up in the large urban area of San Luis Colorado, Sonora, Mexico, Osvel managed to find an instant connection with the natural world at a young age.
"There was always this connection with nature," he says. "But at the same time, I will also have to say that television had a big affect on me. The Jacques Cousteau documentaries and nature documentaries were very influential with connecting with nature."
Osvel quickly discovered his passion, to restore the ecosystem of the Colorado River Delta. Millions of American and Mexican consumers depend on the freshwater of the Colorado River for drinking, hygiene, irrigation, and industry. The river's flow is very controlled, and dams have reduced the extent of the delta wetlands by more than 90 percent in the last century.
For more than 15 years, Osvel has been working with communities along the river's drainage basin to restore water back to the delta.
"It takes time," says Osvel. "But once you find common ground and make it clear that everyone is working toward a common goal, which is to improve conditions for everyone, then it's easier to make progress, but it takes time."
MOST EXCITING PART OF YOUR WORK
"The hope that we can restore nature, seeing the results, and enjoying the results. Going back to a place that has been protected or restored and looking at how it thrives again and how the wildlife thrives, it's amazing."
MOST DEMANDING PART OF YOUR WORK
"The main challenge we have is nature has no allocation of water. So, we are changing that and that is the main challenge. We have failed to recognize that nature needs water also, not just using it for our agricultural industry. We need to dedicate water to connect the rivers to the seas."
HOW DO YOU DEFINE GEOGRAPHY?
"Geography is this great tool to understand the patterns of the world. Not just nature, but humans and their interactions between culture, society, environment, vegetation, and animals. Geography offers all of these tools."
GEO-CONNECTION
"Wetlands provide a lot of services to the world," Osvel says. "They are great representatives of biodiversity. Many species live in wetlands. In many ways, they are the kidneys of the world. They clean the water and also provide protection against floods, storms, and hurricanes. They are very important."
Osvel and his team use different techniques to understand the Colorado River Delta. By mapping wetland areas that have been lost, as well as those that remain, they are able to understand the important connection we have with freshwater.
"By using techniques like mapping and remote sensing, we started to learn the potentials and it has been very important," he says. "It also links to the political geography and how different users deal with the water in the basin and understanding the political geography of water, so we can understand where the solutions can come from."
SO, YOU WANT TO BE A . . . CONSERVATIONIST
Osvel encourages students to learn all they can about water, because many times it is taken for granted.
"We turn on our tap, but we don't know where the water comes from and how much it really costs to bring that water to our houses," he says. "So, learn about your watershed, where the water is produced, where the system goes, what are the important environmental values of your watershed and what are the conservation concerns of that watershed."
"Learn. Go out and get engaged with the groups that are out there doing great work. There are many water-keepers around to learn from. There are also many grass roots organizations that deal with the health of rivers and water, especially in the U.S., there are plenty of these organizations. Try to learn from them and support their causes," he says.

A watershed, also called a drainage basin or catchment, is an area drained by a river and its tributaries. Differing in size and shape, watersheds can encompass a small stream or span thousands of miles like the Mississippi River watershed. As water flows over and through the landscape, it transports materials like plastics, and often times, pollutants, moving them downstream and ultimately to the ocean. Teach your students how water moves through a watershed with these resources.
Rivers and Streams
Only about three percent of Earth's water is freshwater. Of that, only about 1.2 percent can be used as drinking water; the rest is locked up in glaciers, ice caps, and permafrost, or buried deep in the ground. Most of our drinking water comes from rivers and streams. From each river's source, the water meanders through the landscape meeting up with other streams and shaping civilization as we know it. This water is the lifeline of ecosystems around the world. Teach your students about the Earth's rivers and streams with the resources in this collection.

Evaluate and assess the hip's quality
Western Veterinary Clinic offers both PennHIP and Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) evaluations for canines.
What Is a PennHIP Evaluation?
PennHIP is a multifaceted radiographic screening method for evaluating and assessing the quality of a canine's hips as well as whether a dog is susceptible to hip dysplasia. This method of evaluation is also able to accurately predict the onset of canine osteoarthritis (OA). Osteoarthritis, also known as degenerative joint disease (DJD), is the hallmark of hip dysplasia.
PennHIP requires a dog to be anesthetized. Three radiographs are then taken to measure hip joint laxity (looseness) present in your dog's hips. A score between 0-1 is assigned, with 0 being very tight hips and 1 being very loose. The score is based on a measurement of the hip's distraction index (DI).
About Canine Hip Dysplasia
Canine hip dysplasia (CHD) is a common problem in large breed dogs, such as the Akita, German Shepherd, Labrador and Golden Retrievers, and the Rottweiler. Evaluations are essential for breeding animals and service dogs to help reduce the incidence of hip dysplasia, to assure hip joint soundness, and to help diagnose the potential for hip dysplasia.
Performed at an early age, these evaluations can help guide us to determine if corrective measures may be taken to prevent your dog from developing hip dysplasia.
Please call us at (574) 234-3098 if you have any questions about PennHIP evaluations, or if you would like to schedule a consultation for your dog.

News State Tasmania News Thylacine trackers say they have new video proof
6:25pm, Sep 6, 2017
Thylacine trackers say they have new video proof
Thylacines are thought to be extinct, but a new video shows a similar looking animal. Wikipedia Commons: John Gould
Footage of a purported Tasmanian tiger sighting has been released in Hobart.
The vision was recorded last November and was shown at a press conference by a group called the Booth Richardson Tiger Team (BRTT), which has been trying to track a thylacine.
The team said they had 14 cameras in an area within 50 kilometres of Maydena, changing the sites every fortnight.
It claims the footage contains recordings of the animal barking and nosing their camera.
Adrian 'Richo' Richardson, who has been researching and trying to find a tiger for 26 years, is convinced of its veracity.
"I don't think it's a thylacine, I know it's a thylacine," Mr Richardson said.
Greg Booth said he stumbled across a thylacine on Good Friday in 2015.
"I couldn't believe it. I couldn't sleep for days afterwards," he said.
"It had a really big head, a really long snout, it had a scar up here [on its head].
"Its ears were pointed and it had white around the eyes with dark brown eyes set back in the skull of the animal.
"It was sitting down and looked at me, I was about eight feet away from it.
Joe Booth (L), Greg Booth and Adrian Richardson, say they have filmed and seen a Tasmanian tiger in the wild. Photo: ABC
"I noticed his paws … you could see the stripes, the tail of the animal went down and it had a bit of a curl right at the end. Seeing the animal [changed everything], that's why we did this.
"[Before I saw it] I never believed in them. It's marvellous what you can take note of when it's in front of you."
He said he had not reported the sighting because he wanted proof he could show others.
More likely a spotted quoll: expert
The vision has been reviewed by a local wildlife expert Nick Mooney.
Mr Mooney told the ABC there was a 20 per cent chance of it being a tiger but was more likely to be a spotted quoll.
"This footage I saw some months ago now and had a chance to analyse," he said.
"It was better than other stuff I've seen, but it is still not definitely a thylacine in my opinion.
"I think based on anatomy, movement, behaviour size, I think it is perhaps a one-in-five chance it's a thylacine."
More verification sought
The trio will release the vision to other wildlife experts to review.
Mr Mooney said it would be exciting if the footage proved to be authentic but he also worried the extra attention could be detrimental to the animal.
"Half of Tasmania would think it was like finding oil, and the other half would probably be horrified to think what it would mean to the animals," he said.
"Essentially it would be very exciting. But it's just one piece of evidence."
The last thylacine in captivity died at Hobart Zoo in 1936. Thursday is the anniversary of the death of the animal, nicknamed Benjamin, but the team said the timing of the release was a co-incidence.
They said the 10-month delay in showing it to the public was due to efforts involved in getting the vision verified.
Thylacines once roamed mainland Australia and New Guinea, with the animal depicted in Aboriginal rock art paintings in West Australia and the Northern Territory.
Fossils have been found in South Australia, Victoria, Western Australia and Queensland.
In Tasmania, two rounds of bounties were offered for thylacines – in 1830 and 1888, after they began killing livestock.
By 1909 the government had paid more than 2180 bounties and the animals were considered rare.
Reports have regularly emerged of people who say they have seen one, with grainy photographs often presented.
One university professor has said finding conclusive proof that thylacines still exist would "almost stop the Earth turning on its axis in terms of how big the news would be".

Like most everything in life, the best things to enjoy on Kaua'i are free – or at least pretty affordable. Called Hawaii's Island of Discovery and popularly referred to as "the Garden Island" – both for good reason – Kaua'i's landscape is an enticing, exciting destination for lovers of the environment, outdoor adventure, and Polynesian culture.
The following are twelve enjoyable and interesting ways for visitors to experience and enjoy Kaua'i for free (or nearly free).
Mark Twain called Waimea Canyon the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific." It is a sightseer's paradise – a mile wide, 10 miles long and more than 3,500-feet deep. Take in the stunning views from several of the lookouts or hike into the crater.
Follow the road through Koke'e State Park to the Kalalau Lookout with unforgettable views of the once cultivated Kalalau valley that descends 4,000-feet to the Pacific blue. After sightseeing, enjoy a picnic lunch at the top of the crater in Koke'e State Park, surrounded by a forest dominated by koa and 'ohi'a lehua trees.
Kaua'i is a hiker's dream destination, with spectacular hiking trails that immerse one into the magnificence of Kaua'i's verdant wilderness. Hikes range from comfortable walks to challenging treks into hidden valleys streaming with waterfalls.
A must-do for any serious hiker is the 11-mile Kalalau Trail along the majestic Napali Coast.
Prince Kuhio Park was home to Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalanianaole (1871-1922), beloved as the "People's Prince" for his tireless work on behalf of Hawaii's people and the last royal heir to the Hawaiian throne.
Located near Lawa'i, this historical setting features the foundation of Prince Kuhio's home, a royal fishpond, a shrine where offerings were made, and heiau (ancient place of worship) where the kahuna (priests) meditated and lived.
Alekoko Fishpond was built hundreds of years ago for a young chief and once covered 40 acres that were marked by a 2,700-foot long stone wall. Located in the Huleia National Wildlife Refuge that is a habitat for endangered Hawaiian birds, the fishpond is also known as Menehune Fishpond because the legend is that it was built by the mythical menehune (little people) of Hawaii.
The Wailua River is a beautifully scenic area that was once a sacred place in ancient times and reserved for the kings and high chiefs of Kaua'i. Near the river's mouth in Lydgate State Park are the remains of a heiau that was a place of refuge for those who had broken a kapu (taboo).
For a nominal entry fee, the Kilauea National Wildlife Refuge is a uniquely special setting for bird lovers. The most northern point in Hawaii is known for its famous lighthouse.
Framed by breathtaking views of Kaua'i's north shore, Hawaii's endangered birds are seen nesting in the cliffs, including the Hawaiian Gallinule, red-footed boobies, tropicbirds, albatrosses and frigate birds. Look to the ocean and you have a good chance of seeing Hawaiian monk seals, green sea turtles, and Hawaiian spinner dolphins.
Hawaii is the only state with its own music, language, and dance. On Kaua'i, the host culture of Hawaii can be enjoyed for free or at little cost. Many hotels offer free hula performances, torch lighting ceremonies, and lei-making courses, among other cultural offerings.
Coconut Marketplace in Kapa'a and Harbor Mall in Lihu'e stage free hula shows every Wednesday.
The only navigable rivers in Hawaii are found – and enjoyed – on Kaua'i. Rent a kayak and leisurely paddle along one of the gentle rivers bordered by lush, tropical foliage.
Or, journey by riverboat up the Wailua River with Smith's to the famous Fern Grotto. In this beautiful, jungle-like setting, a natural amphitheater has been formed creating remarkable acoustics. On your return down the river, you'll enjoy Hawaiian music and hula performed on the boat.
Koloa is a historic 19th-century plantation town that was the site of Hawaii's first sugar plantation. Every July the Koloa Plantation Days celebrates the town's proud heritage. Visitors will find restaurants and specialty shops amid some of Hawaii's oldest buildings.
Hanapepe exudes an old-fashioned small-town appeal, with its plantation-era buildings and slow-paced lifestyle. Every Friday evening, Hanapepe's nine galleries open their doors for a night of artistic enjoyment. Stroll along Main Street to see fine art and listen to live entertainment.
Kaua'i's waterfalls are a year-round display of nature's ability to keep the Garden Isle green and vibrant. In Lihu'e, one can drive right up to picturesque Wailua Falls. If the 80-foot waterfalls look vaguely familiar, it was a fixture in the opening credits of the 1970s TV show Fantasy Island.
In scenic Wailua, Opaeka'a Falls is the island's most accessible major waterfall as it cascades into a hidden pool. And it's a wonderful setting to take photos. Opaeka'a means "rolling shrimp," which were once abundant in the stream.
The telling of Kaua'i's story can be experienced in museums offering intriguing exhibits and artifacts. In Lihu'e, the Kaua'i Museum tells the island's story from its formation and the arrival of the first Polynesians to more modern times with the start of the sugar plantation, and the various ethnic cultures that have contributed to its history.
Also in Lihu'e, Grove Farm was established as one of Hawaii's earliest sugar plantations, but today offers a museum display of Kaua'i's heritage highlighting the old sugar days and through the monarchy to statehood.
Waioli Mission in Hanalei was founded in 1834. It is where the early Christian missionaries, Abner and Lucy Wilcox, one of Kaua'i's most influential families, lived and worked from 1846 to 1869.
This historic New England-style home was shipped in pieces from Boston around Cape Horn and today stands as a showcase of koa wood furniture and other artifacts from the missionary era. In front of the house is the old Waioli Huiia Church. Its green shingles and stained-glass windows are one of Hanalei's most photographed sites.
Kauai has 43 gorgeous white sand beaches stretching over 50 miles - more beach per mile than any other island in Hawaii.
Whether enjoying the fun at Po'ipu or tossing a towel down in a secluded cove at 'Anini, Kaua'i's range of beaches matches the island's diversity. For the more adventurous, rent a snorkel and see the wonders and undersea beauty of Kaua'i's marine world.
By its very nature, Kaua'i is a destination to be explored and an experience to be discovered – a place that encourages loved ones to gather and create priceless memories to last a lifetime. For more information about Kaua'i, Hawaii's Island of Discovery, visit at www.kauaidiscovery.com online or call the Kaua'i Visitors Bureau toll-free at (800) 262-1400.
As you can see, there is plenty to do on the island of Kauai for free or just the nominal cost of admission. So, next time that you're on the island, get out and enjoy its many and varied aspects.

MLB teams will need to dig deeper for pitching as concerns loom over 2021
2 months ago Adiantku
Scott Boras thinks everybody will want as much pitching as possible this upcoming season and...
Scott Boras thinks everybody will want as much pitching as possible this upcoming season and not just pitchers who are his clients – although the guess here is he would appreciate it if Major League teams called him first, anyhow.
It wouldn't be an off-season if pitching wasn't the most talked-about commodity, and while there is really only one free-agent difference-maker out there – trollin' Trevor Bauer – it seems as if position players remain the focus even after Mookie Betts took himself off the market by signing with the Los Angeles Dodgers. But make no mistake: this season is going to be an arms race.
Some of it comes down to mathematics.
"We've gone through a two-month performance element where over 60-something pitchers were on the injured list," Boras says. "We have a deficit of pitching. Even our most steadfast starters — veterans — will have to go from 80 (innings pitched) to 180-200 innings. We have to re-bridge the game … to allow a full season to be played with minimal risk."
As Boras notes, much of the focus during the off-season will be on protecting pitchers already under contract – some of them for long terms. Some of it will also focus on the influx of young pitchers whose gradual buildup of innings pitched has been interrupted – including those at the minor-league level whose 2020 season was, effectively, a washout. This task will be accomplished at a time when the minor leagues are going through a culling of franchises.

The adage, "You can never have too much pitching" will never seem truer than in 2020, which explains why the Toronto Blue Jays will be kicking tires on every available arm. They have a particularly intriguing case in the form of Nate Pearson, who was hurt last season and only offered a glimpse of his real self in his final relief appearance. How many innings can he pitch in 2021 without exponentially increasing the risk of injury and – worst-case scenario – surgery? How valuable is pitching? Consider that the New York Mets gave 26-year-old free agent Sam McWilliams — who was part of the Tampa Bay Rays 60-player pool but hasn't pitched in the Majors — a contract that will pay him $750,000. As Jon Heyman points out, that is the largest salary in the last 10 years for a player with zero days of big-league service time (not including those coming from Asia). There were reportedly 15 teams interested in McWilliams.
Just as opening the Canada-U.S. border is proving to be a more difficult decision than the decision to close, so too is the resumption of play going to be fraught with concerns that extend beyond the financial. Boras is right when he describes 2021 as being a "bridge" season.
The one sport that is in its second season of dealing with COVID-19 is European soccer, and so far there are cautionary tales galore when it comes to soft-tissue injuries and game congestion and the like. Yes, there have been player absences due to COVID-19, but few if any have been the result of on-field transmission (more likely they occurred the way Liverpool's Mo Salah contacted the illness: at his brother's wedding in Egypt during an international break). Luckily for North American pro sports, most managers and medical officials in and around Europe's leagues have pinpointed the impact of domestic competitions outside of league play – such as the F.A. or Carabao Cup in England – as well as international matches as being the most complicating factor. Describing what he has seen in the Premier League this season with particular reference to Sunday's Liverpool/Leicester match, Guardian soccer analyst Jonathan Wilson wrote: "The parameters have changed. Football has taken a step back into a more attritional age, in which games are won less by thrilling rapid changes than by the grim plod of trench warfare … this season is about finding a way. Any way."
Boras is right: you do wonder how the diminished 2020 season and the interruption of normal rhythms caused by the COVID-19 interruption will manifest itself in 2021. Baseball is the one sport that has managed to line itself up to resume regular service. It certainly appears as if spring training will start on time, and while the recent turn of events in the NHL shows us that a sudden change in approach by ownership can muddy up what seemed to be a clear path to play, what happens if a cadre of owners decide it makes no sense to play without fans in the stands? The initial approach from the Major League Baseball Players Association is they want to play 162 games.
Baseball again seems to be well-served here, in that when pitchers and catchers do report to spring training they will be doing so after a relatively normal off-season. But that's after an odd regular season, and for that reason your favourite baseball team is likely going to be more active than ever in the pitching market, even if you don't know it.

FAIR OR FOUL?
• Fair – Wondering about the shift in winds in CONCACAF. Two years ago all seemed possible: the U.S. men's team looked wayward and Canada's men's team had a spring in its step, beating the U.S. at BMO Field then seeing Alphonso Davies burst through at Bayern Munich, so much so that analysts such as Fox's Alexei Lalas acclaimed him as the best player in CONCACAF. Davies' season has been interrupted by an ankle injury – he is expected to return to training in two weeks — while Canadian forward Jonathan David has had a difficult time following his record $30-million Euro move from the Belgian club Gent to FC Lille of France's Ligue 1, being dropped from the squad before finally scoring his first goal this weekend. And while the Canadian men's team hasn't played since a 1-0 loss to Iceland on January 20, the U.S. men have restarted using their cadre of European-based youngsters. We've talked up our youth but, man, Gio Reyna? Christian Pulisich? Sergino Dest? Josh Sargent? Weston McKennie? Tyler Adams? This could be the best generation of U.S.-born players yet, playing in the Bundesliga, Serie A or La Liga …
• Foul – The Argonauts announced that "The Boat is Back," that in 2021 the team will bring back its football-on-the-water logo. Why? As I've maintained since MLSE purchased this team: there is no one cure-all for the Argonauts' disappearance from local sports consciousness. The only significant football culture in this city is soccer. That's down to demographics and everything that underpins the enormous media influence of the NFL and the fact you can no longer guilt fans into supporting a team. But saying that, hitching your wagon to the past is no way to gain new fans. The last, most obvious measure for this franchise ought to be a top to bottom rebrand that creates a modest space for CFL fans. I get there are differences between Toronto and other CFL markets whose franchises have undergone renaming or rebranding, the Ottawa Redblacks and Montreal Alouettes. But this is such weak, weak sauce. If a year-long absence due to a pandemic isn't the best time to start the rebrand? To maybe cash in on what could be a thirst for attending live sports once we come out of this? I don't know when there will be one …
• Fair – Robinson Cano's second failed drug test will have a significant impact on his Hall of Fame candidacy. Very quietly, the ranks of Hall of Fame voters are going through an overhaul and are becoming less homogenous, which is all to the good. That might mean more voters less inclined to focus on the moral overtones surrounding the debate on steroids and other performance enhancing substances, but in the case of a two-time offender whose career WAR of 68.9 is close to the Hall of Fame average at the position and who is 376 hits and 29 doubles away from becoming the 18th player to reach 3,000 hits and 600 doubles, it will be a deal breaker. Difficult to remember that, at one point, Cano was on a Hall of Fame path and considered to be the next great Yankee …
• Foul – Whining about Edmonton native Davies finishing third in balloting for the Golden Boy, the award given out by Italy's Tuttosport that honours the best player in Europe under the age of 21. Despite his breakout year and playing a key role on a Bayern Munich team that won the Champions League, Bundesliga and the German domestic trophy, it is understandable that he would finish behind winner Erling Haaland of Borussia Dortmund and runner-up Ansu Fati, due to their offensive performances. There's no shame in finishing in third place as a left-back; indeed it can be taken as a sign of that position's growing tactical importance …
• Fair – Raptors fans wanting to hear that president Masai Ujiri is signing a new, long-term contract now that most of the heavy free-agent lifting is done …
direct_url: "https://www.sportsnet.ca/nba/video/nba-players-view-raptors-premium-free-agent-destination/"
THE ENDGAME
You can't say that the signs weren't there. You can't honestly look at what happened to the Raptors in the first 72 hours of NBA free agency and say you are surprised that both Marc Gasol and Serge Ibaka have signed elsewhere. Ujiri and his front office have been sending out signals for three years – going back to even before the acquisition of Kawhi Leonard – that they were planning with an eye toward next winter's bountiful free-agent class. Even if Giannis Antetokounmpo does stay with the Milwaukee Bucks, there will still be a great deal of joy to be found in that group, and at a time when the pandemic is having a considerable economic impact on club revenues, it just makes sense to keep the books as clear as possible in order to make significant acquisitions. Making the money work to get Fred Van Vleet signed was an absolute must, because in addition to giving long-term cover for 35-year-old Kyle Lowry, his presence is fundamental to maximizing lineup options for head coach Nick Nurse. Remember how the Raptors won Game 6 against the Boston Celtics based largely on the play of a lineup that featured Lowry, Van Vleet, OG Anunoby, Pascal Siakam and Norman Powell? Van Vleet opens more doors than Ibaka and Gasol, who would have been surplus to requirements if Ujiri has the success he wants to have next winter. So the bottom line is this: you can't judge this off-season until we see what next off-season brings. In the meantime, the team will play its home games in Tampa anyhow, so punting or at least lining up in punt formation in 2020-2021 might not be the worst thing …

Bjørnskinn är en socken och bebyggelse i Andøy kommun i Nordland fylke i norra Norge. Bebyggelsen ligger på Andøyas sydsida vid Risøysundet, och socknen utgör den södra delen av Andøy kommun och omfattar således också områden på den nordvästra delen av Hinnøya. Bjørnskinns kyrka ligger norr om socknens enda tätort, Risøyhamn. Namnet är av oklart ursprung; tidigare skrevs det Bjarnaska, vilket möjligen kommer från ett fornnordiskt ord som betyder 'björnfara'.

Bjørnskinn var tidigare en egen kommun, men slogs 1964 ihop med Dverberg och Andenes kommuner till den nya Andøy kommun.

The team decided to close the initial rehabilitation cycle (or Rehab-Cycle®) that focused on hand recovery using a standardised treatment scheme (see table 2) and open a new Rehab-Cycle® that intended to address both Peter's current physical situation and behaviour.
The Team's Assessment
Peter's rehabilitation team worked closely with a psychologist to carry out an assessment of Peter's current functioning status. The inclusion of a psychologist in the team helped ensure that Peter's behaviour was taken into account in the assessment. Table 3 – the ICF Assessment Sheet – provides an overview of the assessment results from the perspective of the health professional i.e. Peter's rehabilitation team, as well as from Peter's own perspective. Peter's perspective, as shown on the table as "Patient Perspective", is reflected in statements he made in discussions with him during the assessment.
"I had to use this electric wheelchair, which I couldn't really get the hang of."
Considering Peter's perspective was important, since it illuminated aspects of his experience living with spinal cord injury (SCI) that could faciliate his rehabilitation. For example, Peter's specific needs and complaints about body functions i.e. pain, muscle weakness, lack of sleep, etc. reflected those of many persons with tetraplegia. These body function issues were not exceptionally difficult to address, and many were well-met. This was illustrated by the fact that Peter easily performed his physical therapy activities. The procedure performed on his arm and hand posed no complications for him. Peter's perspective on activities and participation, however, were not as simple.
You know, after this surgery, everything just seemed more difficult. I had to use this electric wheelchair, which I couldn't really get the hang of. And I even needed more help because I couldn't use my hand. It was all really frustrating...And I felt like I was in prison. I just wanted to go home on the weekends to get away – play around a little, meet my friends, feed my cat. I really wanted more freedom. In the hospital, I found it hanging out with my new friends in the ward, but that wasn't exactly the same as at home.
In short, Peter found it difficult being in the rehabilitation centre. His interest in the rehabilitation programme was continually decreasing, and he was often frustrated, bored and less than challenged. He found himself becoming idle.
"I felt a bit resentful and I think I kind of took it out on the nurses and doctors...And I felt like I was in prison. I just wanted to go home on the weekends to get away..."
Table 3: ICF Assessment Sheet
From the health professional's perspective, Peter had the typical impairments and limitations of a person with tetraplegia C6, ASIA B. However, the psychologist made note of a number of personal factors that had a significant impact on his functioning. These included a passive lifestyle, poor compliance, and the absence of a sense of responsibility and purpose. To address these factors, specific intervention targets were identified.
