(Martha Wickett - Salmon Arm Observer)
A journey described as one of both sorrow and healing began on June 11 at the Kamloops Indian Residential School, reaching its destination on June 13 at the home of the Adams Lake band near Chase.
Many different First Nations came from far and wide to participate in the Walking Our Spirits Home event, which honoured residential school survivors, those who never returned and all those affected by the institutions.
Held by the Adams Lake band following the confirmation of the remains of 215 children at the residential school, the walk's last segment on June 13 included a stop at the Adams Lake graveyard to honour past residential school survivors.
"We started to put on our purple and blue colours – those are healing colours," said speaker Paul Michel at the closing ceremony held outside the Adams Lake gym.
"We're still within that pain (the orange), but now we're slowly transforming to the purple and the blues."
He spoke of the healing from welcoming the ancestors back home.
Michel also offered two suggestions to allies: One, that allies educate themselves about the truth and about reconciliation and, two, "allies must get to know us, listen to our traditions, our ceremonies and our stories."
In one of many emotional moments during the closing ceremony, the names of 82 Adams Lake survivors of residential schools were called out and those in attendance were 'blanketed' or given gifts to honour them. Residential school survivors from other First Nations were also honoured with gifts.
Then a powerful honour song sung for the survivors seemed to lift the atmosphere in the large open-air covered area where participants were gathered.

More than one person thanked the survivors because, without them, many of those present would not have been.
Kukpi7 (Chief) Cliff Arnouse welcomed and thanked the other First Nations, the singers, the spiritual leaders and the elders in attendance for their words and support.
He said the 215 unmarked graves mean the reality is undeniable now, "heartbreaking, shocking, genocide. We have a lot of work to do. We're only just beginning. We've all got to be closer together now."
On the walk, some people were crying, some laughing, some were just tired, he said, "and it's time to do something."
"I am so grateful to hear the songs. So grateful to hear the people laughing together. That's what it's all about. We're all here to heal together. All the other stuff isn't worth very much if we're still sick.
"We need to heal. We need to get better. We need to get together and unite and be able to move forward in a good way."
Speakers included Chase Mayor Rod Crowe who referred to Chase residents, saying there are "2,500 of us who live across the river who want to honour and respect all the survivors and all of those that never made it home."
Adams Lake Councillor Brandy Chelsea, who envisioned the Walking Our Spirits Home event two years earlier, expressed her appreciation for the songs and thanked people for being part of the vision.

WEB EXCLUSIVE - July 2019: The Top 18 Labor And Employment Law Stories
USA August 1 2019
It's hard to keep up with all the recent changes to labor and employment law. While the law always seems to evolve at a rapid pace, there have been an unprecedented number of changes for the past few years—and this past month was no exception.
In fact, there were so many significant developments taking place during the past month that we were once again forced to expand our monthly summary well beyond the typical "Top 10" list. In order to make sure that you stay on top of the latest changes, here is a quick review of the Top 18 stories from last month that all employers need to know about:
Scalia To Take Labor Department Reins: What Does It Mean For Employers? – The news that President Trump selected Eugene Scalia to take over as Labor Secretary on July 19 caught some employers by surprise; after all, it was just a week prior that we were analyzing the track record of the soon-to-be-acting Secretary who many expected to helm the Department of Labor for an extended period of time. But now that it appears we have a likely successor in place to take over for Alexander Acosta, all employers are turning their attention to the same issue: what does this transition mean for the business community? We've once again assembled the opinions of some of our firm's foremost thought leaders – including one of our partners who recently worked side-by-side with Scalia on a significant workplace law matter – to help provide a glimpse into what you should expect from the U.S. Department of Labor. The consensus opinion? Scalia will aggressively battle against intrusive and overreaching regulations that hamstring the country's employers, and will quickly endear himself to the business community (read more here).
Oregon Passes Nation's Most Generous Paid Family Leave Law – While many Oregonians were enjoying a leisurely holiday break, Oregon lawmakers were busy enacting the nation's most generous paid leave program. Governor Kate Brown stated she intends to sign into law"HB 2005: Paid Family Leave," which will provide 12 weeks of paid leave to just about every employee in the state (yes, even if you only have one employee), to be funded by a new payroll tax paid by both workers and employers with 25 or more employees. While the law will not kick in until 2023, it's never too early to learn about what's around the corner and start to prepare. What do Oregon employers need to know about this groundbreaking new law? (read more here)
Chicago Adopts Expansive Predictive Scheduling Ordinance – The Chicago City Council just approved what is likely the most expansive predictive scheduling law in the country. Business and labor groups came together with Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot's staff and the city council to negotiate, draft, and approve the Chicago Fair Workweek Ordinance. The new law, approved on July 24 and set to go into effect on July 1, 2020, will soon mandate certain employers to give many lower-income employees advance notice of their schedules and face financial penalties for unexpectedly changing an employee's shift. What do Chicago employers need to know about this significant new law? (read more here)
Answers To Employer Questions In Wake Of Threatened ICE Raids – Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) threatened to start to carry out a series of immigration raids this month seeking to identify and apprehend undocumented individuals – with some potentially occurring at the nation's workplaces. These potential raids might continue for weeks or months, with varying levels of intensity and geographic focus. Even if they do not materialize to the extent originally promised, just the specter of these enforcement activities has raised a number of questions from employers about how to respond to such an action, and how to minimize the chances of them happening in the first place (read more here).
9th Circuit Kicks California Security Check Case Back To Lower Court – In a unanimous decision, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals resuscitated class claims against retail giants Nike and Converse that allege employees are owed compensation for time spent undergoing security checks when exiting the retail stores (Rodriguez v. Nike Retail Stores, Inc.; Chavez v. Converse, Inc.). The federal appellate court held that the lower district court – which had ruled in favor of the employers by applying the federal de minimisdoctrine – needs to conduct a do-over to comply with a recent California Supreme Court decision that all but eliminates the de minimis doctrine based on the facts before the high court. The bar set by the courts is high; California employers may now need to pole vault in order to scale it (read more here).
Labor Department Says Truck Drivers Need Not Be Paid For Sleeping: 3 Things You Need To Know About Opinion Letter – Trucking companies will no longer need to pay their drivers for certain off-duty time, potentially including time spent sleeping in their sleeper berth units, after the Labor Department issued an opinion letteryesterday confirming that such time is generally not compensable. The letter is a welcome one for the trucking industry, clearing up confusion caused by recent conflicting court decisions that held that off-duty time may be limited to eight hours a day when a driver is on a trip and spending off-duty time in their sleeper. However, you should make sure you understand the full ramifications of the opinion letter before changing your pay practices. Here are three things you need to know about yesterday's significant news (read more here).
NLRB Streamlines Process For Employers To Withdraw Union Recognition – The National Labor Relations Board relaxed its test for determining the legality of an employer's anticipatory withdrawal of union recognition prior to the expiration of the collective bargaining agreement. In the July 3 Johnson Controls, Inc.decision, the Board upheld an employer's right to suspend bargaining and serve notice within 90 days prior to CBA expiration of its desire to withdraw recognition from an incumbent union thereafter, upon receiving objective evidence that the union has actually lost majority support. The 3-1 decision found that such actions would not form the basis of unfair labor practice charges even if the union were to subsequently reestablish majority support through the filing of a new representation petition (within 45 days thereafter). In so holding, the Board overruled conflicting aspects of prior precedent in 2001's Levitz v. Furniture Co. of the Pacific, which evaluated an employer's "anticipatory withdrawal" by application of a "last in time" rule that relied extensively on union evidence establishing that it had regained majority support. A Board majority also suggested that it remained open to reexamining other forms of existing precedent governing the decertification process (read more here).
California Governor Signs Law Prohibiting Employment Race Discrimination Based On Hairstyles – California Governor Gavin Newsom recently signed legislation to provide that prohibited employment discrimination based on race under the Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) also includes discrimination based on hair texture and protective hair styles. This new law goes into effect on January 1, 2020. California employers will need to review workplace grooming standards in order to ensure compliance with the law. The legislation, Senate Bill 188by Senator Holly Mitchell (D-Los Angeles), specifically amends the definition of "race" under FEHA to include "traits historically associated with race, such as hair texture and protective hairstyles," including "braids, locks, and twists." The legislation was amended during the process to address similar discrimination in the public school education context. According to the author and supporters of the proposal, the legislation was necessary because societal stereotypes that define European features as the norm for "professionalism" disproportionately impact persons of color, especially African-Americans (read more here).
New Jersey Amends Medical Marijuana Law – New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy recently signed into law amendments to the state's medical marijuana law, providing greater clarity when it comes to the workplace implications of medical marijuana use by employees and applicants, while creating additional obligations for employers. The July 2 amendments took effect immediately, which means you should not delay incorporating the new law's requirements into your day-to-day human resources practices (read more here).
Obesity: A New Protected Class In Washington – The Washington Supreme Court held for the first time that obesity is a protected class under state anti-discrimination law (Taylor v. Burlington Northern Railroad Holdings, Inc.). The July 11 decision runs counter to recent federal court decisions in other parts of the countrythat have said obesity not caused by an underlying physiological disorder or condition does not qualify as an impairment under federal law. The main reason for this distinction is that Washington state disability discrimination law offers broader coverage than the federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). While Washington employers may have grown accustomed to expansive disability discrimination protections in our state, the decision goes further than ever before and may require you to immediately adjust your personnel practices (read more here).
9th Circuit Kicks Dynamex Retroactivity Question To State High Court – With just a one-page, single-paragraph Order, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals provided the faintest glimmer of hope for gig economy businesses everywhere on July 22 – but especially for those in California. The federal appeals court withdrew its May 2 decisionthat had extended the Dynamex decision on a retroactive basis, meaning that the ABC test might not necessarily be as broadly applied as we recently thought. Instead, the 9th Circuit decided to send the issue to the California Supreme Court, asking the state's high court to conclude once and for all whether the ABC test should be applied to alleged misclassification controversies that arose before the Dynamex decision was ever issued (read more here).
Noncompete Reform Continues In New England: Maine, New Hampshire, And Rhode Island All Pass New Laws – Noncompete reform continues to crop up in New England. We previously wrote about comprehensive reform in Massachusetts late last year, and now three more states have passed legislation in recent weeks. All three states – Maine, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island – now prohibit employers from entering noncompetition agreements with low-wage employees, though the definition of "low wage" varies by state. The bills in Maine and New Hampshire will soon become law, and the bill in Rhode Island has passed the legislature and is awaiting signature by the governor (read more here).
Elizabeth Warren Becomes Latest Candidate To Unveil Pay Equity Plan – A few months ago, Kamala Harris unveiled an ambitious plan to introduce stricter legal measures to force employers to comply with pay equity standards. Fellow senator and Democratic presidential hopeful Elizabeth Warren has now announced her own pay equity plan that she would push were to she capture the White House in 2020. Warren's plan, released on July 5, would promote pay equity – with a special focus on aiding women of color – by imposing new federal contractor rules and strengthening enforcement against systemic discrimination (read more here).
Employers May Catch Temporary Break On Impending California Privacy Law – Thanks to recent negotiations among state lawmakers, it appears that California employers may get a temporary reprieve on some of the more sweeping data privacy requirements that were set to take effect in just a few short months. However, the pending legislation that would provide the delay would not exempt employers from significant disclosure requirements that also comprise the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) – meaning you should still be in the process of preparing for the new law at your workplace. California Assembly Bill 25, which passed the Assembly in May and is currently pending in the Senate, was recently modified so that employers about to be covered by the CCPA would receive a one-year extension on the deadline to start tracking, responding to, and complying with employee requests for disclosure, copies, and deletion of the employee's personal information you collect and maintain. Rather than the originally planned January 1, 2020 deadline, the amendment's passage would push the effective date of this portion of the statute to the start of 2021. However, AB 25 would not exempt you from the January 1, 2020 deadline to start disclosing to employees the categories of personal information you collect and the business purposes for which this information is collected and used (read more here).
More Than Just A Game: U.S. Women's Soccer's Equal Pay Quest Takes World Stage – As the newly crowned world champion U.S. Women's National Soccer Team members received their winners' medals on July 7, chants of "equal pay!"reverberated through the stadium. Those in attendance were well aware that the men's 2018 World Cup prize was $400 million, while the female players will receive $30 million this year. Support for the athletes in their fight for pay equal to that received by their male counterparts also appeared to be behind fans booing FIFA president Gianni Infantino. Recognition of the issue was evident on social media, with Twitter reporting that there were five times more tweets about "pay" after the win, according to the BBC (read more here).
Just (Don't) Do It: Oregon Supreme Court Warns Against Cat's Paw Retaliation – The Oregon Supreme Court just revived a whistleblower retaliation claim filed against sportswear giant Nike by adopting for the first time a novel legal concept known as the "cat's paw" theory. The July 18 opinion opens new avenues for employees to pursue retaliation and discrimination remedies against employers. By reading a summary of the case and gaining a better understanding of this theory, you can avoid running into similar legal trouble with your employees (read more here).
Federal Mine Safety And Health Review Commission Issues Unanimous Decision Vacating Fall Protection Citation – Unanimous decisions from the Federal Mine Safety and Health Commission are rare, but on July 11, the Commission ruled 5-0 to reverse an Administrative Law Judge's finding of a fall protection violation in Sims Cranebecause the ALJ improperly shifted the burden of proof. Vacating the decision before it, the Commission found that the ALJ focused upon Sims's counterarguments without determining whether the Secretary proved his claims by a preponderance of the evidence. The Commission then held that the Secretary failed to establish that a danger of falling existed as a violation of section 56.15005 requires. It vacated the Secretary's citation without remand (read more here).
Democratic Presidential Contender's New Plan Calls For Protections For Gig Workers – The gig economy has caught the attention of at least one presidential candidate who has unveiled a plan called "A New Rising Tide" which, among other things, calls for greater protections for gig economy workers. South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg put forth a plan on July 26 that calls for guaranteeing "gig economy workers their labor rights, including unionization" and states that "millions of Uber and Lyft drivers lack basic protections because they're misclassified as independent contractors." Independent contractors are not protected under current federal labor and employment laws and most state laws. Buttigieg's plan states that in order to provide gig economy workers with the protections of the Fair Labor Standards Act he "will support codifying the simple 'ABC test' for classifying workers nationally in order to prevent workers in the gig economy from being denied minimum wage, overtime, and antidiscrimination protections–and their ability to unionize" (read more here).

According to Maine Department of Public Safety Spokesman Steve McCausland, the Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit has arrested three individuals in connection with the death of Donald Giusti The arrests were made this morning (April 11), with the assistance of the Lewiston Police Department and Maine State Police-Troop F in Houlton.
According to McCausland, a 17-year-old male from Lewiston has been arrested and charged with manslaughter and will be transported to the Long Creek Correctional Facility in South Portland. The teenager was located in Limestone this morning by Troopers assigned to Troop F in Aroostook County, McCausland said. He is expected to make his first court appearance in Lewiston District Court on Friday at 1 p.m.
McCausland said a 13-year-old male from Lewiston, has also been arrested and charged with misdemeanor assault and also transported to the Long Creek Correctional Facility. The teenager is expected to make his first court appearance in Lewiston District Court today at 1 p.m.
McCausland added that Pierre Mousafiri, 23, of Lewiston, was arrested and charged with misdemeanor assault and transported to the Androscoggin County Jail in Auburn. Mousafiri's arraignment date is set for June 12th at Lewiston District Court pending release on bail, McCausland said.
The arrests are the result of several months of investigation, which included multiple interviews, a thorough review of physical and electronic evidence seized in the case and after consulting with the Maine Attorney General's Office, the Office of Chief Medical Examiner, Androscoggin District Attorney's Office and the Juvenile Corrections Office, McCausland said.


SCOTUS's next big privacy issue: Can police seize smartphones?
David Riley was already in deep trouble when the San Diego Police Department got hold of his Samsung smartphone in August 2009. Riley had been driving around the neighborhood in a Lexus with expired tags, and when he was pulled over police discovered that his license had been suspended. They searched his car and found guns hidden under the hood. Riley was arrested for carrying concealed and loaded weapons.
But it was the smartphone that sank him. At the arrest site, police scrolled through Riley's text messages and contacts, finding what they considered to be indications that Riley was a member of the Bloods gang. Hours later, when he was under interrogation at the police station, a gang expert conducted a second search of Riley's phone. He found photos and videos that, according to police, tied Riley to a gang-related drive-by shooting. Despite defense arguments that the smartphone seizure violated Fourth Amendment strictures on warrantless searches, prosecutors later used a photo and videos taken from Riley's phone at his trial, which ended with his conviction for shooting at an occupied vehicle and two other charges. And because the smartphone supposedly linked Riley to gang activity, he was subject to an enhanced sentence. Instead of a maximum of seven years, he was sentenced to a prison term of 15 years to life.
The question of whether police can search cellphones they seize during arrests is, in fact, so hot that Riley's certiorari petition isn't the only one raising the issue at the Supreme Court. Two weeks after Riley's filing, the Justice Department asked the high court to review Wurie v. U.S., a 2013 decision by the 1st Circuit Court of Appeals that squarely conflicts not only with the 2011 California Supreme Court decision that doomed Riley but also with rulings by two other state Supreme Courts and three federal circuit courts. Both the Justice Department and Riley petitions argue that the high court must step in to reconcile contrary rulings that have left police departments and prosecutors without clear guidance on defendants' Fourth Amendment rights to shield their phones from warrantless searches. It seems inevitable that the Supreme Court will eventually have to decide the question, but first the justices will have to figure out whether Riley's case or the Justice Department's (or both) is the best vehicle to clarify the law.
The defendant in the Justice Department case, Brima Wurie, was arrested back in 2007, before smartphones became commonplace. Police seized Wurie's more basic flip-style cellphone after arresting him for selling two bags of crack cocaine. From a limited search of the phone, the government was able to figure out Wurie's home address (he had given them a false address) and to obtain a warrant to search the house. That search turned up the drug stash at the heart of Wurie's conviction in federal court in Boston.
On appeal, Wurie raised the same Fourth Amendment defenses as Riley, with drastically different results. In May 2013, the 1st Circuit overturned his conviction, holding in a 2-to-1 decision that the search of Wurie's phone violated the Fourth Amendment so all evidence stemming from that search must be suppressed. The ruling established what the appeals court called a "bright line rule" that government officials may not conduct warrantless searches of cellphones seized from defendants under arrest.
The 1st Circuit's opinion explicitly noted that its holding contradicts rulings by the 4th, 5th and 7th Circuits, which have all concluded that cellphones seized during arrests may be searched without a warrant under the U.S. Supreme Court's precedent in U.S. v. Robinson and U.S. v. Edwards. Those cases, which both date from the early 1970s, carved out an exception to the Fourth Amendment's bar on warrantless searches for clothes and other items – including such things as briefcases and address books – seized "incident to arrest" on the defendant's person or in the immediate vicinity. (The principal justification for the exception is that it's reasonable for police to search for weapons or evidence during an arrest.) State courts are also divided on warrantless cellphone searches: Courts in Florida and Ohio have recently agreed with the 1st Circuit that such searches violate the Fourth Amendment, but high courts in California and Massachusetts have deemed cellphone searches legal under Robinson and Edwards.
The government's petition for Supreme Court review of the Wurie case focuses on the direct split between the 1st Circuit and the Massachusetts Supreme Court, which leaves state law enforcement in a quandary. Interestingly, the Justice Department petition only obliquely addresses the Riley case, arguing that the record in Wurie, but not in Riley, raises an alternative argument that the search of Wurie's phone was justified by police officers' reasonable belief that the defendant was lying about his home address. For the government, which would like the Supreme Court to bless warrantless cellphone searches, Wurie is probably a better case than Riley because the officers who searched Wurie's phone conducted a very limited examination, not a deep dive into Wurie's photos and phone history.
Riley – and four quite diverse groups that filed friend-of-the-court briefs at the Supreme Court last Friday – argue that smartphones offer the government much broader access to information than the flip phone Wurie used, so Riley's case provides a starker example of the consequences of warrantless phone searches. An increasing percentage of cellphones, they assert, are smartphones, which contain not only text and phone records but Internet search history and, in apps, all manner of additional business and personal information. The data contained on a smartphone, wrote Mayer Brown in an amicus brief for the Center for Democracy & Technology and the Electronic Frontier Foundation, far exceeds the information that could be contained in paper files a person might have carried at the time of the Supreme Court's rulings in the 1970s on warrantless seizures. Those rulings, according to Riley's amici, could not have anticipated that police could gain access without a warrant to the array of personal data available on smartphones. The amicus brief of the Constitutional Accountability Center goes so far as to argue that warrantless cellphone searches are akin to the despised Colonial-era general warrants that inspired drafters of the Constitution to include the Fourth Amendment's protections against unreasonable search and seizure.
"This issue applies to everyone, from a corporate executive to a teenaged drifter," said Riley counsel Fisher, who pointed out that one of the precedential rulings on warrantless cellphone searches involved a businessman whose phone was seized when he was arrested for drunk driving.
Fisher said he's "not in the business of predicting what the Supreme Court will do," but said the justices signaled an interest in the intersection of technology and the Fourth Amendment in their ruling in the 2012 case of United States v. Jones, in which a unanimous court said that warrantless GPS tracking violates the Fourth Amendment. "There's every reason the court will carry the same sensitivity to this case," Fisher said.
The Riley case was scheduled for consideration by the Supreme Court justices later this month, but on Tuesday the court asked to hear from the state of California. That brief is due on Oct. 3. Wurie's response to the Justice Department's cert petition is due in mid-September. According to Riley counsel Fisher, the justices will probably not conference on the cases until November.

Pro Football GM Q & A
Randy Mueller
From the GM Chair: Postseason
There are no shortage of story lines and interesting things going on in the NFL this week. I'll let others tell you who is going to come out on top of the SIX wild card weekend games. I'm going to stay in my lane and give you my take on several other topics from around the league from a former GM's perspective.
THE MESS THAT HAS BECOME THE HOUSTON TEXANS
The question is not whether they have issues but rather how many issues does this organization actually have? Where do we start? Let's begin with a disgruntled star player who claims he was promised a seat at the table when it came to having input on potential GM and head coach hires. This one falls directly on owner Cal McNair. Obviously, he should have never opened this door unless he truly was going to follow through. Communicating is hard. Every word that gets said can be a problem, especially if it doesn't come to be. There is nothing wrong with your best player being heard. Listening is a skill that a good leader MUST have and I see nothing wrong with having a sit down with DeShawn Watson and JJ Watt, maybe even together? Why not gather some information from your two leaders? Perhaps the decision makers, Cal McNair and his right-hand man Jack Easterby (who clearly is still pulling strings), could have heard what was important to these two popular players in the locker room. I don't think it shows weakness. I don't think its shows indecision. I think it shows humility and helps to build culture. I think it absolutely addresses the reason that Watson tweeted out a "some things never change" quote. The culture established by former GM/HC Bill O'Brien has proven to be toxic. Because he came through the Patriots "car wash", Watson sees "more of the same" with the hiring of the next general manager and a status quo situation with Easterby.
These two together have led to repercussions and mistrust in the process which has created skepticism around most in the NFL. Matt Eberflus, the defensive coordinator for the Indianapolis Colts, recently turned down a chance to interview for the head coaching position with the Texans. The team's new GM, Nick Caserio, might be the greatest GM in the history of the league, but his tenure has started under a giant gray cloud. There have been positive things said about Caserio, however, New England's recent drafts can't be used as positive examples and insiders throughout the league all have seen this. There is more to these jobs than sitting in a room and picking players. Communication, trust, culture and building consensus with player acquisitions are all traits that will determine the Texans future. Caserio has a big job, made harder by the owner's lack of leadership and communication skills. However, McNair isn't going anywhere. Caserio has to decide who he surrounds himself with going forward and if the perception of his new organization is going to change. I'll let you, the reader, figure out what that means.
THE COURTSHIP OF URBAN MEYER
We have recently heard of the back-channel communication between the Jacksonville Jaguars and former Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer. Now we read of a face to face sit down meeting between both parties. I think most in the NFL want to see how that's going to go. I think it's interesting that his candidacy has been championed by a team without a "named GM" and by ownership. Having visited Ohio State many times while Meyer was at the helm, suffice it to say there will not be a lot of NFL scouts and executives that will be jumping on board and welcoming him into the NFL family. Very few school visits were anywhere near as miserable as when I went to Columbus on many occasions. Unlike Nick Saban, who opens his doors at Alabama every day to NFL people, the Ohio State experience was much different, it has been met by most NFL people with the same excitement as finger nails scratching a chalk board or undergoing a root canal.
Having said that, the fit in Jacksonville probably is as good as it will ever get for Meyer. He will no doubt be given total control, answer only to the owner, and be a big fish in what is really a great city more oriented towards the collegiate ranks. Jacksonville is the type of place where the head coach of the Jaguars can be king if he's winning, just like in college. He can easily control the local media there, similar to what happens in most college towns. The biggest difference for head coaches who come from college is they must learn quickly that the professional game is all about the players. People pay to see the players perform, as it should be, and they really don't care who the coach is, as long as the team is winning.
The reality is it's a totally different game. Sure, a leader of men is just that, no matter what level of football. However, professional football players are a bit different and all expect to be treated like men. You only have 53 scholarships (not 85 like college) at the NFL level, so really there are tough roster decisions that loom every day, not just on signing day. If Meyer enters the league, he is going to need others around him that he trusts. One guy cannot make all the decisions for an NFL team. That's a fact, not my opinion. Let's see how this one plays out.
PLAYOFF NOTES:
Chicago Bears- Having dipped into the film room to see what all the hub-hub is about regarding the resurgence of QB Mitch Trubisky, I found it's actually much of THE SAME from earlier this year. The Bears offense has been reduced to doing things aligned with his skill set and that has limited them to roll outs, half field throws, predetermined routes and the equivalent of playing offense with one hand tied behind your back. If GM Ryan Pace and HC Matt Nagy survive this crazy season, they have no choice, in my opinion, but to move on from Trubisky. The Bears literally have to play perfect on both sides of the ball to have any chance to win and that's very, very, very hard to do at the NFL level. Trubisky's play just gives them no margin for error. If ever a team needed a reset in evaluating talent going forward, it's this team.
LA Rams- A lot of nice stuff was said last week about fill-in QB John Wolford in a Week 17 playoff-clinching performance against the Arizona Cardinals. I'm here to say that Wolford's effort is nowhere near good enough to win a playoff game on the road in the NFL. The best thing he did was use his legs to run for several first downs on designed QB runs. Wofford lacks an NFL arm and can't make the necessary downfield throws. He also missed most of the throws that would have allowed the Rams offense to convert chunk plays. Ram fans better warm up to Jared Goff fast. He's their only chance to advance going forward.
WFT- The fact that HC Ron Rivera has acknowledged needing an alternate package for backup QB Taylor Heinicke should tell you everything you need to know for this weekend about their chances to compete vs Tampa Bay. The Alex Smith story is unbelievable, but he has really struggled in his play. I feel bad for him. Heinicke is not an NFL QB by normal standards or skill set. This TB defense will eat him up.
Well, don't let me be Debbie Downer, I'm just trying to keep it real. Enjoy the other three games this weekend. ☺

Q: Why is my app crashing due to an overreleased NSPathStore2? My app crashes with this (after the end of viewDidLoad):
-[NSPathStore2 release]: message sent to deallocated instance

A similar issue was reported in this question, but I'm not using any explicit NSPathStore2 instances, so I don't know where this is coming from.  I know this is a memory-related issue, but I'm not sure how to track it down
What could be causing this overreleased NSPathStore2?  What is an NSPathStore2?

A: NSPathStore2 is an internal object used by NSString for path work. You're almost certainly overreleasing an NSString somewhere in your code. The static analyzer will probably show you where: assuming you're using Xcode 4, choose Analyze from the Product menu.

Finally, we have been successful rebuilding the pergola and let the wisteria bloom again this spring and many springs in the future. Bob negotiated long and successfully with town management to get the materials, and then we had to get to work. Digging the holes for the poles was no small enterprise, and some of us suggested to trade in the post hole digger for an auger. But in the end, we persevered, the project was almost completed, and we celebrated and remembered Marleen just before the wisteria bloomed. Come and have a look before the wisteria takes over and obscures all our hard labor.
Inspired by a photography class, I walked along the path in search of a good spot to shoot pictures of the wisteria pergola covered with snow. I had to be fast; the snow was melting and dropping giant flakes on me and my camera. I did not care. It was exhilarating being out there. The foot prints were just mine.

Could B Corp gold standard actually encourage green-washing
With a status cemented as a gold standard eco-credential, B Corp may be widely lauded in the business community as a benchmark of good practice, but not everyone is convinced.
"Even if every business became B Corp certified would the world really be any different? Would we have a regenerative economy?" Georgia Rae Taylor, of the environmental agency Eco Age, asked, rhetorically.
She is a sustainability strategist who devises green plans for brands including Gucci and Harrods and is one of a few voices questioning the true impact, cost and complexity of B Corp, which recorded a 25 per cent rise in submissions for its certification between 2019 and 2020. The total number of B Corps globally stands at 6,000 and a glitzy party was held at the Natural History Museum yesterday evening to celebrate the UK passing 1,000.
B Corp was conceived in 2006 by the non-profit organisation B Lab as a comprehensive evaluator of a business's sustainability practices. It helps consumers to buy responsibly and investors to make a good choice of investment.
Assessment, covering governance, workers, community, environment and customers, is based on a points system and those scoring at least 80 out of a possible 200 points gain approved B Corp status and are subject to recertification every three years to maintain it.
Taylor conceded that the process could be a "good hygiene check, like an annual MOT" but said that the approach, which can result in a business being recertified even if it maintained an existing score, limited further progression and failed to differentiate between best in class and others doing just enough.
"If you still keep the certification for not getting any worse, where's the incentive to do better?" she said. "I do think B Lab is trying to create a better world, but we don't have time any more for incremental action and box-ticking band-aids."
She said that its popularity was rooted in its "gold-star appeal" for those who approach sustainability with a competitive mindset. "Businesses love it because in a world of clickbait, where you have to communicate in bite-sized messages, putting the label on the product gets the messages across to customers easily, but businesses need to step up with bolder, more intense, science-backed and forward-looking frameworks."
There are ever more options to choose from. According to a 2021 report called "The environmental performance of UK-based B Corp companies" 500 non-governmental organisations were involved in auditing and certifying organisations for their pro-social practices in 2018 and the EcoLabel Index listed 455 eco labels in 2021.
Shivraj Bassi, the founder of the health supplement brand Innermost, said he initially opted for the B Corp approach to formalise his London-based start-up's sustainability policies simply because it was the one that he had heard about.
He claimed, however, that a lack of technical support prompted him to switch to Future Plus, a platform focused on setting short, medium and long-term goals based on the United Nations' 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs). He has since shifted to 100 per cent recyclable packaging and created internal handbooks of good practice to send to suppliers, arguing that the absence of a minimum score criteria in this approach did not undermine its value and that the "marketing noise" around B Corp was overstated.
"Most of these frameworks are onerous enough to separate the wheat from the chaff if a business isn't serious about sustainability," added Bassi, a former investment banker, who pays a monthly fee of £125 on the Future Plus platform.
"There's a cachet to being a B Corp, particularly in the start-up community, but if you were to ask a person on the street what it actually is they've probably got no idea. For me it was important to get straight on a platform rather than spending a year preparing for something I may not get approved for."
Furthermore, with annual fees starting at £1,000 for businesses with yearly sales under £150,000 rising to £50,000 for those with a revenue over £750 million, B Corp has been branded an "expensive stamp of approval" by Janaya Wilkins, founder of the sustainable swimwear business SLO Active.
She conceded that B Corp's online assessment had made her rethink approaches to product design and supply chain management but she abandoned the application in 2019 because of delays in the review process caused by an explosive growth in submissions. She has since pursued a free certification with Social Enterprise UK, which comes with an annual progress review, as well as creating her own initiative, Earth to Ocean, which donates a percentage of sales revenue to marine conservation charities.
"It seemed that every man and his dog was wanting to be a B Corp at the time including big corporates, which meant we, as a social enterprise dedicated to doing the right thing by our suppliers and for the planet, weren't being prioritised for something we felt we were naturally suited for," she said. Her venture makes its garments from castor bean oil as opposed to non-renewable neoprene, a synthetic rubber often used to make swimwear.
"When I dug deeper and found that Evian and Nespresso, two of the biggest producers of single-use plastic on the planet, had been B Corps, I began to wonder if it was all just greenwashing and a money-making exercise."
B Lab rejected the suggestion and said that far from being a box-ticking exercise the certification was "often at the beginning of a company's sustainability journey". The UK arm, a registered charity, had revenues of only £1.6 million in 2021, fourteen employees and three trustees.
It added: "B Corps are held legally accountable not just to shareholders but to all stakeholders such that a company has to continually consider the wider community and planet alongside profits, when the vast majority of for-profit companies are structured to do the exact opposite."

Charlize Theron's Spy Thriller Atomic Blonde Gets A Stunning New Poster
Feb. 23. 2017 11:07 PM
Amid the talk of who will eventually replace Daniel Craig as James Bond when he leaves the series (if he hasn't done so already), some folks threw around the idea of a woman being cast as the titular spy. If any woman out there could step into those shoes, it's Charlize Theron. Though she may never hold the title of 007, Theron will be getting a kickass spy thriller all her own in the upcoming Atomic Blonde (formerly titled The Coldest City). The movie drops this summer, and we have the first look at it thanks to this new teaser poster. Check it out!
This sleek-looking poster was shared via Atomic Blonde's official Instagram. The poster offers the first look of the Oscar-winning Theron as the title blonde. Sporting the always trendy all-black ensemble with matching sunglasses, Theron holds a gun and has some really blonde hair. It's a simple and sweet approach with a very cool vibe, a mix of deadly and seductive. Theron nails the look to say the least.
Atomic Blonde is an action-thriller that stars Theron as Agent Lorraine Broughton, the crown jewel of Her Majesty's Secret Intelligence Service. As MI6's most lethal assassin, Broughton uses her spycraft, sensuality and savagery to accomplish her impossible missions at whatever the cost. Sent alone on a mission to Berlin to deliver a priceless dossier, Broughton soon finds herself trapped in a deadly game of spies. Atomic Blonde is based on the graphic novel, The Coldest City, created by Antony Johnston & illustrator Sam Hart.
In addition to Theron, the cast is rounded out by James McAvoy (who plays an embedded police chief partnered with Theron), John Goodman, Toby Jones, Sofia Boutella, Til Schweiger and Eddie Marsan. Atomic Blonde is directed by David Leitch (John Wick, Deadpool 2) with a screenplay written by Kurt Johnstad (300).
There is some serious talent crammed into this movie. Not only do you have the always reliable McAvoy and Goodman, but David Leitch is in the director's chair. So far, the director has a pretty great track record, which should hint at the level of action we can look forward to in this movie. Theron can basically do anything having been in big blockbuster action movies like Mad: Max: Fury Road and dramatic awards contenders like her turn in Monster. That makes this role of a cutthroat assassin, who'd just as soon kill you as she would bat her eyelashes, right up her alley. Plus, I'm really digging the title.
Atomic Blonde is set to hit theaters on July 28. For more news about the film, make sure to check back in with CinemaBlend and we'll be sure to update you with new information as soon as it becomes available.

Games have always pushed the bounds of what technology can do. They are likely to push what can be done in the post-PC world as well.
From 1980-1999, games were made for young male audiences and expensive hardware. But all that has changed.
The business evolution of games had mirrored the evolution of content in general. Previously you went to a store and bought physical games on specific hardware. Now you use the Internet and existing your devices connected to a network to play games.
Family gaming at home has brought a lot of people into the gaming world by allowing them to engage with fun lightweight devices.
It used to take a decade to build a meaningful platform. 55M Xboxes in 7 years, 850M unique in 7 years, 60+ million iPads shipped in 2 years. When platforms emerge this quickly, if you are not on top of these new platforms, someone is going to each your lunch.
Each new platform has new winners. Connected TV, tablet, and location are still highly contested.
Choose a strong platform, optimize for that platform, pick the right business model, get in early and play to win.
Location-based games have largely failed because they've applied old game models. The location element is just layered onto it and not needed. We need games that no one would like to play without location.
The battle for the couch: which device will win? The iPad, Xbox 360, or a connected TV? Many iPads are computers for the home and used mostly on the couch.
How long until every screen has an internet connection and the ability to play games? What kind of games will you build for the next generation of devices: ubiquitous location awareness, socially aware, at least 2 cameras (high end), persistent access to high-speed internet, on-demand access to infinite storage, API access to almost any web service, A week's worth of battery life.
Games will continue to push what's possible in this post-pc world and we are just getting started.


How to Convince Your Policy-Makers to Support Organic Agriculture!
This toolkit is aimed at anyone involved in advocating for pro-organic policies, designing them, or deciding on them. It is therefore aimed both at government representatives and private sector users.
When advocating for change, showcasing positive experiences from other countries can be of great benefit and even inspire others to follow suit. Depending on the policy environment you are operating in, it might be better to advocate for organic in broader terms such as measures in favor of sustainable agriculture or policies that promote rural development and family farming. A good example of which can be seen in the EU where most policy measures that allocated a certain budget to "food quality schemes" ended up disproportionally benefiting organic agriculture.

Brazil Votes to Accept Venezuela into Mercosur
After two years of debate, the Brazilian senate voted on Tuesday to admit Venezuela to the Common Market of the South trade bloc, Mercosur.
By Tamara Pearson - Venezuelanalysis.com
Dec 16th 2009 at 3.41pm
BrazilMERCOSUR
Merida, December 16th, 2009 (Venezuelanalysis.com) – After two years of debate, the Brazilian senate voted on Tuesday to admit Venezuela to the Common Market of the South trade bloc, Mercosur.
Following a five hour session, 35 senators voted in favour and 27 against. A Telesur journalist in Brazil, Gabriel Fialho, reported that the Brazilian opposition had been against approving Venezuela because, according to them, Venezuela is still undemocratic.
Government factions responded that Venezuela's membership in the bloc goes beyond its government's politics, and that its economic, social and cultural contributions should be taken into consideration. Others highlighted the advantages of free trade with Venezuela, and opposition senators responded that the supposed undemocratic nature of the government of President Hugo Chavez would threaten the possibility of agreements with other countries and blocs.
The protocol for Venezuela to become a full member was signed by the governments of Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay and Paraguay on 4 June 2006, but until Tuesday only the parliaments of Argentina and Uruguay had ratified it.
Now only the Paraguayan parliament needs to vote in order for Venezuela to formally become a complete member of Mercosur. However Paraguay's senate chamber is controlled by the right wing opposition and is unlikely to approve Venezuela's entry soon. Last August president Fernando Lugo withdrew the request to add Venezuela to Mercosur from the parliament; given the unlikelihood it would be passed. The Paraguayan foreign relations minister was also worried if it wasn't approved it could "generate problems in bilateral relations with Venezuela".
The Brazilian minister for foreign affairs, Celso Amorim, said Venezuela's entry into Mercosur will "strengthen the effort in advancing towards [regional] integration."
He also said that once Venezuela joined the bloc, it would then include 270 million people and represent almost 76% of South America's GDP.
The president of Mercosur, Juan Dominguez said the addition of Venezuela would widen already existing relations and commercial exchange, and that the possibility of other countries participating in the exploitation of the Orinoco Oil Belt in Venezuela would contribute to the development of those countries.
Venezuela's foreign minister, Nicolas Maduro, agreed, saying that Venezuela's admission to the bloc, "will multiply the incentives for economic and commercial relations," and would be a step towards "the construction of the a large economic zone of South American development."
The Mercosur trade bloc was established by the four current member countries in 1991, and is now a key economic force on the continent. It's formally stated objective is to "expand the dimensions of their national markets, through integration, as a fundamental condition in order to accelerate the processes of economic development with social justice."

this game turned out to be kind of a mess, but i hope you do enjoy.
crush your enemies and collect all the coins. it's the life of a princess.
you get points by collecting the coins. you lose points by getting blown up. you also lose points by getting bumped, and you lose even more points when you get bumped or blown up while you have powerups. you should collect those powerups, though, and avoid touching anything unhelpful. if you die on zero or fewer points, it's game over! theoretically, though, you can finish the game with a negative score. if you're clever.
music featured is by abstraction!
This is very very difficult but I really like it! I reached the second stage and died and gave up.
The physics are great, and the sound effects are great. It has a nice feel.
I like that the coins move towards you, but aren't automatically collected. I like the gradual speed increase.
The overall difficulty makes it really satisfying when you get all the powerups and mow everyone down – especially when you know that you might mess up and lose everything again.
if i come back to this game i'll make it a little bit friendlier. i like the tough-until-you-can-blow-everything-up thing, but i think with the generally sloppy level design there are some unfair moments!
glad you enjoyed it, though!
Short of revising the difficulty, a tiny thing that would make a big difference is a level picker or level-skip button. I wanna try to beat the second level, but I don't want to beat the first level all over again just for another try at the second level.
Finishing the game is definitely doable. I'd recommend sticking with the "spaghetti" weapon if you're having trouble.
...Plus, there seems to be more satisfying explosions when that weapon is used!
This game is great! The voices are a special treat. And thank you for including an auto-fire ability instead of forcing me to mash my keyboard all the time.
If you do adjust the difficulty, please allow it to be selected instead of only a single, simpler difficulty level.
I cannot describe to you the enjoyment my girls get out of this. And I think it's awesome as well.
Sorry for the late response. Holiday craziness was epic this year. Merry Christmas and thanks for the awesome game!!!
I'll have to post again when it's not 6:30 in the morning to give a more detailed list of awesomeness which this game provides!


The biggest shipping container restaurant in the United States will open this spring in Asheville, North Carolina. Installed in just three days last May, the restaurant, called the Smoky Park Supper Club, comprises 19 shipping containers prepared, delivered, and assembled by the company SG Blocks. The impressive project was developed by Asheville locals Matt Logan, Kristie Quinn, and chef Mark Rosenstein.
Located on a former brownfield along the French Broad River, the Smoky Park Supper Club is a shining example of adaptive reuse and brownfield reclamation.
Logan, owner of the downtown Asheville restaurant 5 Walnut, bought the 1.8-acre property in 2011 and worked with a design/build team led by Clemson University Professor of Architecture Douglas Heckler to clean up the site and design the Smoky Park Supper Club.
The shipping container restaurant includes a wrap-around deck and will be easily accessible on foot, bike, and boat.
The Smoky Park Supper Club is nearing completion and adding the finishing touches, such as the inclusion of local art.
SG Blocks delivered the shipping containers from a Florida port and installed them on site.

Cloud IAM: Identity and Access Management
Dmitry Dontov December 17, 2018 G Suite Best Practices G Suite Security Office 365 Security 0 16589
A crucial part of cloud security involves managing user identities, their permissions, and resources they have access to. This can be an extremely challenging task for organizations who may have users accessing public cloud resources from a number of different devices and networks. Additionally, organizations may be utilizing multiple clouds and managing access across all of those public clouds. Most public cloud vendors today provide cloud Identity and Access Management (IAM) frameworks to help facilitate and secure users' identities and access to resources.
Cloud IAM provides fine-grained access control and visibility for centrally managing cloud resources. Let's take a closer look at cloud identity and access management in the context of Google Cloud Platform and G Suite, and how organizations can make use of the cloud IAM framework as a means to secure and provide access to resources for their users.
What is IAM?
Google Cloud Identity and Access Management
Google Cloud Permissions and Roles
Policy Based Cloud Access
Intuitive Single Management Interface
IAM Auditing
Cloud IAM (Cloud Identity and Access Management) is a key part of an organization's overall cyber security strategy when it comes to securing resources in the public cloud. Cloud IAM helps organizations manage access control by helping to define "who" has "what" access for "which" resource. The who are members, the what are role and the resources are anything we want to grant permissions on in the public cloud.
One of the key aspects of security when it comes to a user accessing resources is having mechanisms in place that prove that users are who they say they are whether they are accessing public cloud resources from on-premise hardware and networks, or from a mobile device connected to the Internet. Let's take a look at the following aspects of cloud Identity and Access Management and how each is able to bolster an organization's public cloud security:
Cloud Permissions and roles
Policy Based Access
Intuitive, single management interface
In thinking about Identity and Access control on public cloud resources, the idea of "least privilege" aligns itself very well to most organizations' security policy. In other words, we don't want a user to have any privilege they don't absolutely need to access resources, both on-premise or in the cloud. Best Practices for cloud IAM access assignment include:
Use Predefined roles over Primitive roles (differences explained below)
Treat each part of an application controlled by cloud IAM as a separate trust boundary
Grant roles at the smallest scope needed
Restrict the number and specifics of who can operate as a service account
Restrict who can create service accounts
Be restrictive on granting owner role to members as this allows the modifying and managing of the IAM policy for that resource
When thinking about G Suite Cloud Identity and Access Control, we first establish the identity of a user, group, or domain, and then apply Google Cloud permissions to provide access control. Identity in the context of Google Cloud Platform (Google's nomenclature is members) can be one of the following:
Service account
G Suite domain
Cloud Identity domain
In today's RESTful API driven world, public cloud vendors are heavily using RESTful APIs to allow customers to interact with their public cloud resources. This holds true as well with defining permissions in the public cloud, using IAM. Permissions define which operations are allowed on a given resource in the public cloud. As is the case with Google, these permissions are represented in the form of the following:
<service>.<resource>.<verb>
pubsub.subscriptions.consume as an example
Since the interaction with public cloud resources is very heavily RESTful API driven, often the available permissions align themselves with the RESTful API methods that are exposed. So, generally, there is a 1:1 correlation with permissions to API call that is exposed.
Rolesare collections of permissions that are directly assigned to a specific user. In fact, with Google Cloud Platform, you cannot directly assign permissions to a user, but rather assign roles to a user. Roles make assigning permissions very efficient in that a user assumes all the permissions that are defined in that role. So, you can create role based access permissions that define which permissions a typical user in that role would assume.
As an example, Google Cloud Platform has three types of roles that can be assigned via cloud IAM:
Primitive roles
– The primitive role is much of what you would expect from standard issue permissions found in many different types of systems. These are standard roles that should be familiar to most organizations – Owner, Editor, Viewer
Role Name Role Title Permissions
roles/viewer Viewer Permissions for read-only actions – state is preserved
roles/editor Editor Includes Viewer permissions and permissions to modify state
roles/owner Owner Includes all Editor permissions and includes managing access control, billing
Predefined roles – The predefined roles that Google Cloud Platform offers are more granular than the legacy primitive roles. They allow for more fine-grained control over access. So, while an might be able to publish and have access to more actions, a predefined publisher role may only be allowed to publish.
Custom roles – The custom roles are where we can truly get creative when it comes to the exact permissions we want to include in a role. When organizations want extremely granular and customized roles that truly align as closely as possible to the role based access they want to assign to member objects, customized roles can accomplish this. With customized roles, we would get into being able to uncover the low level RESTful API based control mentioned earlier.
Adding to the building blocks of cloud Identity and Access Management includes defining IAM Policy. What is Policy as it relates to Google public cloud IAM? IAM Policy defines which objects (members) are assigned to which role. Users could be granted their role based on matched criteria presented in a policy.
With cloud IAM policies, they are organized hierarchically with the organization node being the top-level entity. Policy flows from top to bottom with child resources inheriting the policies assigned on the parent entity. This does not flow the other way around with child policy affecting parent entities, etc.
Policies can be managed via API in the Google Cloud Platform using IAM methods which allow:
Setting policies – setIamPolicy()
Getting policies – getIamPolicy()
Testing permissions for a resource – testIamPermissions()
Of course, RESTful API interaction with policies is much preferred for automating policy as well as interacting and making, or getting, bulk changes from the policy API.
With Google Cloud Platform Identity and Access Management, organizations get a single management plane to be able to manage users, roles, resources, policies, API endpoints, etc. Cloud IAM tasks are easily performed from the same management plane, allowing a single "pane of glass" approach to configuring members, building roles with the appropriate permissions, using policy to define which members get which roles, and other cloud driven IAM tasks.
Auditing is a staple when it comes to securing systems either on-premise or in the cloud. It helps to give visibility and accountability to G Suite administrators and other users for any actions they may perform in business-critical systems. Similarly, auditing, as it relates to cloud IAM, allows organizations to determine who did what, where in the system, and when it was done.
With Google Cloud Platform IAM auditing, there are two audit logs for each project and organization – Admin activity and Data Access. The admin audit logs entries for API calls that includes modifying any configuration of resources and other tasks that administrators might perform. Viewing logs for admin logging requires the IAM roles of Logging/Logs Viewer, or Project/Viewer. Data Access logs record API calls relating to any user-provided data. Viewing the Data Access logs requires the Logging/Private Logs Viewer or Project/Owner IAM roles.
Cloud IAM (Cloud Identity and Access Management) is a crucial part of any organization's security strategy to make sure both identity and access are validated so that access to business-critical resources in the public cloud have the correct permissions applied. Among the many powerful features of cloud based IAM are Identity and Access control, Permissions and roles, Policy Based Access, single management interface, and Auditing capabilities. By using these and other security features of cloud based IAM in conjunction with other cloud security measures such as API based CASB, organizations,and GDPR compliance are able to drastically bolster security of public cloud resources. Making sure the identity of users accessing cloud resources is validated and making sure those validated users have fine-grained permissions applied helps to ensure the best practice of "least privilege" access.

Four arrests made after investigation into LSU student's death; rape charges filed
4 days 20 hours 53 minutes ago Monday, January 23 2023 Jan 23, 2023 January 23, 2023 11:00 PM January 23, 2023 in News
By: Chris Nakamoto
Casen John Carver, Kaivon Washington and Everett Lee (left to right) Madison Brooks
UPDATE: Two of the suspects, Casen Carver and Everett Lee, have been released on bond. Read the latest here.
BATON ROUGE – Multiple people have been arrested on rape charges by the East Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office amid an investigation into the death of 19-year-old LSU student Madi Brooks, the WBRZ Investigative Unit learned Monday.
Watch live newscasts here
Sources said a 17-year-old was first booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish juvenile detention center Sunday on a count of third-degree rape.
An 18-year-old man, identified as Kaivon Washington, was booked on Monday, along with Casen Carver, also 18. Washington faces charges of third-degree rape; Carver was booked as a principal to third-degree rape.
A fourth suspect, 28-year-old Everett Lee, is identified as the uncle of Washington and is also booked as a principal to third-degree rape.
According to state law, third-degree rape in Louisiana occurs "when the victim is incapable of resisting or of understanding the nature of the act by reason of a stupor or abnormal condition of mind produced by an intoxicating agent or any cause and the offender knew or should have known of the victim's incapacity."
Brooks' blood-alcohol level was .319 percent at the time, according to arrest documents. That's nearly four times the legal driving limit for an adult.
In a conversation shortly before his surrender, Washington told WBRZ's Chris Nakamoto that he had sex with Brooks before she died. Washington said it was consensual.
Washington said he, the other suspects and Brooks left Reggie's — a bar in Tigerland — early Sunday, Jan. 15, after a night of heavy drinking. He said he and another teen had sex with Brooks in the backseat of a vehicle.
Carver and Lee were in the front seat, according to arrest records.
Washington said Brooks later asked to go home. They brought her back to where she told them she wanted to be dropped off, near the Pelican Lakes subdivision off of Burbank Drive.
Washington said Brooks gave them multiple different addresses before she got out of the car. She was killed a short time later after she wandered into the middle of Burbank. The driver who hit her was not arrested and is not suspected of being impaired.
The NAACP is working with prominent Baton Rouge attorneys representing two of the suspects, saying there is video evidence refuting allegations that Brooks was raped.
Sources said detectives with the East Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office showed up at the suspects' homes this weekend.
On Tuesday, a judge assigned bonds to all three adult suspects under the stipulation that they remain under house arrest and wear ankle monitors. Carver is being held on a $50,000 bond. Lee is held on a $75,000 bond, and Washington is held on a $150,000 bond.
Sources told WBRZ on Tuesday that the 17-year-old's court hearing was pushed back to next month, meaning he'll sit in juvenile jail for weeks.
LSU University President William Tate released the following statement Monday.
Dear LSU Community,
This afternoon, police arrested four individuals following an investigation into the events preceding the death of LSU student Madison Brooks, who was struck by a vehicle on Burbank Drive last week.
Madison was a daughter, a granddaughter, a sister, a niece, a classmate, and a friend to many of you. By all accounts, she was an amazing young woman with limitless potential. She should not have been taken from us in this way. What happened to her was evil, and our legal system will parcel out justice.
Our collective grief and outrage cannot be put into mere words. So what can we do? It is time for action. One place to target our attention is the very place where this encounter began.
All but one of the suspects involved in this horrific scenario were underage yet were able to consume alcohol at a local bar. As such, our action plan starts with a deep and relentless focus on any establishment that profits off our students by providing alcohol to underage individuals. In the coming days, we will call a meeting with these business owners to discuss how their responsibilities directly impact the safety of our students. We will work openly against any business that doesn't join us in efforts toward creating a safer environment for our students. Enough is enough.
Real and long-lasting solutions require multiple strategies, so we will not stop there. That is why I am asking our entire Baton Rouge community, from business leaders to citizens, to work together and join us in this effort. We will share additional action items in the coming days, but for now please join me in keeping Madison's family in our thoughts and prayers.


Last year, Montessori Community School's Elementary Art Teacher designed and created a mural for the cement wall facing 1700 South. These tiles have been mounted and have really come together beautifully, enhancing the aesthetics of the space. If you have not had a chance to stop by and see this mural, please do! It makes a great place for back to school photos!
Also, tiles created last year by students and staff are in the works to be mounted on the remaining cement wall. Stay posted for when they have been mounted.
