Australia develops tool to predict spread of dengue fever
Source: Xinhua| 2019-12-05 15:19:38|Editor: Shi Yinglun
CANBERRA, Dec. 5 (Xinhua) -- Australia's national science agency has developed a tool capable of tracing and predicting the spread of infectious diseases.
The tool was developed by researchers from Data61, the data science arm of the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO), and draws on data from the International Air Transportation Association (IATA) to track the spread of diseases.
Outbreaks of dengue fever, a mosquito-borne disease, are often triggered in non-endemic countries such as Australia when individuals contract it overseas and transmit the virus to local mosquitoes.
"According to the World Health Organization, around half the world's population is at risk of contracting dengue," Jess Liebig, a postdoctoral fellow from Data61, said in a media release.
"By understanding the travel behavior of infected individuals, we can estimate the number of infections that are imported into different countries each month.
"The tool also determines the infections' country of origin and is able to uncover the routes along which dengue is most likely spread."
The tool was developed in partnership with the Queensland University of Technology (QUT). According to its data, the flight path between Puerto Rico and Florida in the United States has the highest number of dengue-infected travelers.
"According to recent studies, around 92 percent of symptomatic infections are not reported to health authorities mainly due to low awareness levels and misdiagnosis," professor Raja Jurdak from QUT said.
"Our tool is one of the first to be able to forecast the absolute number of dengue importations, rather than the relative risk, at a global level."

David Campbell is a lifetime Episcopalian. Graduate in 1985 with a degree in Recreation and Leisure Services from Eastern Washington State University, his career has focused on the development of professional camping in the States of Washington, Montana and now at Camp All Saints in Texas. At Camp All Saints, David's primary focus will be its strategic development of program and property. David loves camping as a ministry resource because of its unique ability to live into the church described in Acts 2:43-47. He believes camp settings are an excellent vehicle to live intentionally in Christian community. The work connected to this intentional discipline creates an opportunity for Christ to change individuals, groups, congregations or diocese in profound and life giving ways.
Being at Camp All Saints allows Sandi to fulfill her love for education, children, and the outdoors. She coordinates the All Saints program staff as they serve both school and church programs with environmental education and challenge course personal development. Her certifications include Waterfront Lifeguard and Level 1 Challenge Course Practitioner. At camp she guides programs that teach children to understand and respect the natural environment and build confidence while having fun in the outdoors.
I grew up on Lake Texoma and enjoy being around the water and in the woods. I went to school for wilderness emergency medicine. My wife, Amanda, and I have two kids and love spending time utdoors as a family. When I am not here at Camp All Saints, I love to go canoeing, mountain biking, and fishing. My favorite thing about camp is being able to see the kids get outside and watch them gain a new appreciation for nature.

Last month after it was announced that BLACKPINK would be doing a show at Manchester arena, England, fans were informed that the groups official lightsticks may not be allowed inside of the venue.
It now seems that the venue have come to a final decision after many fans emailed them about the situation and the venue have decided that they will not be allowed in due to security reasons.
Now fans are wondering if the group have been informed of this decision.
Considering it wasn't that long ago, when Ariana Grande's concert was bombed, I don't blame them for the heightened security. There were fatalities.

As someone who follows, writes about, and reveres TV institutions, NBC has made it extraordinarily easy to find out when Jimmy Fallon starts his run at the desk once held by legends such as Steve Allen, Jack Paar and Johnny Carson (February 17th for those keeping track at home), but incredibly difficult to find out when Jay Leno was ending his run (his last show is February 6th as the show takes a week off for the Winter Olympics). This seemed particularly off putting to me, as through The Tonight Show's over 11,000 episodes two of the most memorable had to be Carson's 1992 departure and Conan O'Brien's 2010 farewell.
Even after the year of Conan, the idea of 11:30 not being a Leno-Letterman centered universe is foreign to me. I'm just a smidge too young to have been staying up at 11:30 for Carson, who left the air when I was in kindergarten, so my frame of reference comes after the first of many Late Night turf wars for Leno, when himself (then Carson's regular guest host on Fridays) and future Late Show host David Letterman were jockeying to become the heir to Carson's chair.
While Letterman would get the original upper-hand on Leno in the ratings war, the Tonight Show would storm back through Leno's witticisms on what had to be the defining topic of 1994: OJ Simpson's seemingly never-ending murder trial. Leno's run on the Tonight Show would continue to generate buzz throughout the 90's leading to a feud with Hulk Hogan in WCW and wrestling in a Pay Per View main-event match. These were admittedly better times for NBC as a whole– the "Must See TV" lineup anchored by Friends and Seinfeld was a juggernaut, the network had the best sports portfolio on the air (NFL Football, NBA Basketball, MLB during the All-Star Game and playoffs, and both the Summer and Winter Olympic Games).
A key part of this late night rivalry seemed to come from the contrasting styles of the two comedians. Letterman tended to be on the cutting edge (especially during his late night run), often cracking jokes that were sardonic, postmodern, and biting (his takedown of NBC's Las Vegas Gambit which replaced his AM show is a golden example of this). Leno, on the other hand, has always had a more old-school feel– his delivery felt like the sort that's often used to mock hack comics who tell bad jokes about airplane food. This phenomena even extended to his two Tonight Show mainstays– Jaywalking and Headlines, both seem as old as the medium themselves, with the man-on-the street interview going back to Steve Allen and Jack Paar. While on one hand, one could find this style grating, it also would ultimately serve as the last vestiges of a tamer style of comedy that served the networks well since the dawn of television.
In later years (especially after the Jay Leno Show debacle), Leno seemed to turn into this Rasputin like figure over at NBC. Blamed by viewers for forcing out Conan and by the network for shredding NBC's schedule to bits (by obliterating the 10pm hour all five nights of the week), it was clear that the network was going to give Leno a short leash from day one by making their next host of Late Night the clear heir apparent. In spite of the short leash, Leno still seemed like an unassailable figure that both sparkled the audiences of middle America as adeptly as the maneuvering that kept him in his role.
Whatever you may think about the constant jostling and self preservation (he's probably less culpable in the Conan situation than people made him out to be– NBC in retrospect was the first victim of the implosion of broadcast dominance and while wiping out the slate for Leno was a reckless move, I'm not really sure anything would have done better in those time slots) or his often more punchless brand of observational humor (made all the more glaring compared to Letterman's more sardonic style of humor), the end of Leno's run on late night is a bittersweet end of an era. The move signals a changing of the guard as the much younger (and perfectly suited for millennial tastes) Fallon takes over at Tonight, while the show itself moves back to New York.
In the long run, I think Leno's legacy actually comes down to how well he sticks this particular landing. Even with last departure being horrendously botched and then ultimately reversed, that time around was not truly Leno's late-night swan song: He was effectively being promoted as the end result of making a promise that would ultimately be too difficult to keep. This time around there is no new show, no likely prospect of a new show (and at 63 it's doubtful he finds a Conan-esque cable deal, though a show about the man and his car collection could make for better reality TV than 90 percent of unscripted cable TV right now anyway), and increasingly like a relic to a time before irony and sarcasm ruled the comedy roost. A graceful exit here could indeed provide Leno with the goodwill that he has seemingly lost in the wake of the Conan debacle (as the adage goes, "Fool me once, shame on you…") and help position him as the elder statesman of a medium that targets increasingly younger by the day (unless you watch CBS).

News release: Winter contingency pumping at Canisteo Mine Pit may cause unsafe ice conditions
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources has begun contingency pumping at the Canisteo Legacy Mine Pit to keep water levels below 1,318 feet for the protection of local community infrastructure.
The pumping will cause Canisteo water levels to drop, creating a gap between winter ice cover and the unfrozen water surface, resulting in unsafe ice conditions across the entire pit.
Water from the Canisteo is flowing into nearby wetlands and Holman Lake in Itasca County, potentially causing unsafe ice conditions on those waterbodies as well. The DNR strongly advises that people and recreational vehicles stay off the ice this winter at the Canisteo, nearby wetlands, and Holman Lake.
Winter pumping at the Canisteo Pit will ensure the drain tile system in the city of Bovey will continue to divert groundwater away from residential structures. The pumping system is located on the east side of the Canisteo and is drawing water from the pit at a maximum rate of 11,000 gallons per minute. The water is being discharged to a wetland complex that flows into Holman Lake.
Mining in the Canisteo stopped in 1980 and there is no company responsible for managing the Canisteo's rising water levels. As of December 2022, the Canisteo's water level was at approximately 1,311 ft., 13 feet below natural overflow levels.
The DNR planned to begin pumping the Canisteo on Oct. 1 but deferred this when DNR invasive species specialists discovered zebra mussels in the pit water in September. To prevent the spread of invasive species downstream, the DNR must ensure that zebra mussel larvae, called veligers, are not present in the Canisteo before water is discharged into surrounding waterbodies. Veligers drop out of the water column when water temperatures are below 53 degrees, so the DNR is pumping in the winter to prevent zebra mussel spread.
With $710,000 dollars from the Department of Iron Range Resources & Rehabilitation, contingency pumping at the Canisteo is a short-term solution to prevent water from overtopping the pit. A permanent solution will require legislative funding. The DNR is working with state agencies, local governments, and private entities to plan the permanent engineered outlet project. Once legislative funds are available, construction of the outlet structure will take an estimated one year to complete. More information is available on the Canisteo Mine Pit page of the DNR website.

New Ed Sullivan Show Footage Of Louis Armstrong Released
The archives of The Ed Sullivan Show have been opened again to share rare vintage performances by Louis Armstrong. Armstrong and Sullivan were both born in the same year (1901), and had a great mutual respect. Through SOFA Entertainment's relationship with the Louis Armstrong House Museum (LAHM) and The Louis Armstrong Educational Foundation (LAEF), these new clips have come to light.
These clips were never shown since the original broadcasts and shows the Jazz maestro and opera star Robert Merrill performing a Medley ("Vesti la giubba" and "Honeysuckle Rose") on the episode that aired on April 17, 1955.
Another new clip that was originally broadcast on CBS Network on May 15, 1955, features Armstrong alongside Gary Crosby delivering a performance of "Struttin With Some Barbecue." Originally composed as an instrumental piece in 1927 by Lil Hardin Armstrong, lyrics were added by Don Raye in 1941. The episode that featured the latter clip also featured Sammy Davis Jr. and Señor Wences and both clips see Armstrong performing on his trumpet.
About The Ed Sullivan Show
The Ed Sullivan Show is the most popular primetime variety show in American history. For nearly a quarter century, Ed Sullivan hosted the greatest array of talent on television, including The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Elvis Presley and Motown artists such as The Supremes, The Temptations and The Jackson 5. Every Sunday night at 8pm on CBS from 1948-1971, The Ed Sullivan Show showcased a wide variety of pop culture from the worlds of music, comedy, novelty and much more. The library of 1,000 hours includes over 10,000 performances.

BJP criticises Sheila Dikshit over VC's appointment
The News Minute | August 31, 2014 | 06:27 pm IST Thiruvananthapuram: The BJP on Sunday criticised Kerala Governor Sheila Dikshit for signing an order appointing the new vice-chancellor of Mahatma Gandhi University despite having resigned from the governor's post. Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) state unit president V. Muraleedharan said here it was most unfortunate for a governor, who has already resigned, to sign an order to appoint Babu Sebastian as new vice-chancellor of the MG University. "We will initiate legal steps against the new vice-chancellor as he does not have the requisite qualifications prescribed by the UGC," he said. Dikshit, who as the governor is the chancellor of the Kottayam-based university, on Saturday signed the order to appoint Sebastian as the vice-chancellor of the university. In May, Dikshit inked an order to remove the then vice-chancellor A. V. George, after it was found that he had misrepresented his qualification in the documents submitted before a search committee. BJP's state unit general secretary K. Surendran on Sunday said the central government should intervene on the issue. "Sebastian got the post because he is a Kerala Congress (Mani) party leader. He does not have the UGC prescribed qualifications," said Surendran. Sebastian is currently the director at the State Institute of Educational Technology, Thiruvananthapuram. Congress legislator Benny Behanan, who was part of a committee that selected Sebastian, told IANS that they did go through all the papers submitted by Sebastian and found that everything was in order.

With those words, a young man opens his eyes to find himself shackled to a gurney in some kind of research facility As he tries to get his bearings, he is attacked by robot guards, and finds that he has the skills to defeat them.

From that moment on, things get really interesting.

Sand image the size of 12 Olympic swimming pools can be seen from space
By Aya Ali
Artists have spent more than 2,400 hours preparing an image made from sand which is so big it can be seen from space.
The largest sand image, measuring 15,876.22 m² (170,890 ft²) – that's the equivalent of more than 12 Olympic-size swimming pools - was achieved by the Public Diplomacy Office (UAE) in Dubai on 17 February.
Titled "Prince of Humanity", the picture is of Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, Emir of the State of Kuwait, which was carved out of completely natural red stones sand. It is so big the Emirati Satellite, Khalifa Sat, managed to take a photo of it.
The United Arab Emirates government department created the image to show its love for Kuwait on its national day.
Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, said: "The love of Kuwait and the people of Kuwait is etched into our land... in our hearts... in our history... May beloved Kuwait and its amir, prince of humanity, continue to see years of prosperity and peace."
The portrait was created to mark Kuwait's two-day celebration: National Day on Monday and Liberation Day on Tuesday.

When I visit with clients of Corner Post Financial Planning, they inevitably mention that having their affairs in order is a top concern. Meaning: They want to ensure that in the event of incapacity, medical emergency, or death, their wishes are followed and their families taken care of.
Despite everyone's best intentions, though, we often put off what can be avoided or ignored.
Estate planning can be as complex as the situation dictates, or as hairy as the participants make it! But ensuring the basics are in order is a good way to get started.
Below I emphasize three areas that are important to address.
Beneficiary Review: Do the beneficiaries and transfers on death (TOD) on your investment accounts align with your wishes? In most circumstances, accounts with such designations pass directly to the named individuals(s) regardless of a what a will or trust says. If there has been a birth, divorce, death, or other key change in your family, check beneficiary/transfer on death instructions. Employer retirement plans like 401(k) accounts as well as IRAs have beneficiaries, as does life insurance. Brokerage accounts can have a TOD set up. Similarly, bank accounts have pay on death designations available.
Often, thoughtful clients have very specific flows of assets in mind, including per capita (by head) and per stirpes (by branch) designations as it relates to beneficiaries and contingent beneficiaries. Sometimes forms don't offer all options. Work with your financial advisor or insurance agent to ensure your wishes are noted. You may need to write a letter to the insurance or investment company laying out your beneficiary designations.
Insurance Review: Long term care. If you are age 50 to 70, do a needs assessment for long-term care insurance, which can cover at least a portion of any home based care, assisted living, or nursing home stays you might require. If you have parents in this age range, frankly discuss their long-term care insurance situation with them.
Life insurance. Individuals who have others relying on their income or contribution to the family should review their life insurance coverage. Do you have life insurance? Is it enough? My simple rule of thumb is: If someone might miss a meal if you died, you need to think about life insurance.
In most instances these are straightforward documents and many local attorneys in your area can craft a set for you.
Failing to take the time to review your beneficiaries on your investment and banking accounts, sit down with an attorney to draft a will, or purchase life insurance if needed can cause serious issues if an untimely death or illness strikes.
I encourage you to take stock of your situation today and make arragements to rectify any shortcomings in your basic estate planning.
John R. Berry is owner of Corner Post Financial Planning in Mineral Wells.

I guess the only positive is that it could have been worse. No loss of life, and much of the structure still stands.
Posted by: Stu | 04/16/2019 at 04:43 PM
Yes, and according to at least one thing I read all three of the rose windows are still there. A huge relief. It seems a significant timely reminder and warning, though.
An outward sign of loss of inward grace--although the cathedral is still grace-filled.
I am so glad about the windows. That would have seemed the greatest loss to me.
Yes, wonderful about the windows. There are some very good, detailed graphics and photos of the damage up on the BBC website.
I'm so relieved that it is still standing. I felt sick last night at the thought of it being destroyed. I can hardly believe that the windows survived! Apparently the towers were vulnerable but ably defended by the firefighters. Had those portals and that facade been destroyed it would have been so awful.
Those pictures at the BBC are amazing. It's hard to believe the pulpit and pews are still there. I guess the fire was in the roof, and fire (as Aristotle taught us) goes up, not down.
I'm donating some money to the reconstruction fund. I wish it could be funded by a grassroots campaign. I keep reading about billionaires and corporations putting up absurd sums, and I'm not sure how I feel about that.
I agree. But then as I understand it the French govt actually owns it, which makes our relationship to it a little odd.
Thanks for the link, Marianne, that's very informative.
"An outward sign of loss of inward grace"--yes. Not total loss of course as you say, but loss.
It appears to be much better than we could have expected, and it looks like some of the area that burned was slated for repair already.
Repairs were in progress, as I guess you know. That seems to be part of the reason why fears that it was arson haven't gotten much purchase. There's lead involved with the roof (ceiling?) somehow, along with hundreds-of-years-old wood, and I wonder if the repairs being done required working with molten lead. Pretty obvious risk of fire there. I guess maybe in the coming days there'll be some details about all that.
One aspect of the significance of the event is that fire is also purifying. I was thinking of that when I did this post.
Very happy that this is not as bad as it initially appeared to be! I went to bed Monday night worrying that I was going to wake up the next morning to news of a total loss.
One of the things that worries me about the massive lump sums French moguls are contributing is that it might buy them undue influence over what is done with the money. Already some people are saying that, well, the reconstruction doesn't have to look exactly as it did, it should reflect our own times, etc, blah blah.
This is the city, after all, that, for all its beauties, has permitted some jarring architectural projects -- the Pompidou Centre, the Eiffel Tower, and that cold-as-ice pyramid in the middle of the Louvre, for example. One out of three is not a reassuring track record.
It's a UNESCO World Heritage Site, though, and so maybe it can't be changed much at all. A piece on the UNESCO website says after an assessment of the damage "UNESCO would accompany and support the authorities in the recovery, rehabilitation and rebuilding of the damaged heritage site based on accurate documentation based on archival material, photos, films, historic documentation, plans and drawings."
Let's hope...I hadn't consider the possibility of, um, improving it.
There are some vandals in places of influence:
"The building was so overburdened with meaning that its burning feels like an act of liberation," says Patricio del Real, an architecture historian at Harvard University.
https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/notre-dame-cathedral-paris-fire-whats-next-822743/
The NYT doesn't use the words "Catholic" or "Christian" in discussing it:
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/15/world/europe/notre-dame-france-fire.html
Anyone who can say what Patricio del Real said should not be allowed anywhere near the church.
Wishing you a very good and blessed Triduum.
Thanks, and likewise to you.
The desire of so many Westerners to disown and destroy their own civilization is going to be marveled at by historians in the future, as indeed some of us marvel now.
Tourism to the rescue? From a piece up at Crisis Magazine:
The damage to Notre Dame is a wake-up call not only for Christians who have let their faith lapse, but also for dyed-in-the-wool secularists. Though run by the Church, Notre Dame, like other historic churches in France, is owned by the French state. Notre Dame is important to France not only because of its history, art, and architecture, but also because it is one of the main reasons that people visit France. Notre Dame draws more visitors than the Eiffel Tower. Many who visit the Cathedral come not just as tourists, but also as pilgrims. For them, "Our Lady's" Cathedral means far more than one more historic site to check off the list. Ironically, secular France's greatest attraction is a spiritual treasure.
French President Emmanuel Macron promises to raise enough funds to rebuild Notre Dame within five years. But to what purpose? For the greater glory of God? To worship and praise him? Not quite. The damage to Notre Dame could be a fatal blow to France's tourist economy which is already reeling from rising crime rates and the constant threat of terrorism brought on by mass Muslim migration. Macron's haste to rebuild suggests that the state is far more dependent on the Christian faith than it had thought.
"more visitors than the Eiffel Tower" really surprises me. Though now that I stop and think about it maybe it shouldn't. Anyway, that's an interesting aspect of the thing.
I hope y'all read of the hero priest who rescued the Blessed Sacrament and the crown of thorns.

Julio Jones' NFL Combine Performance is One to Remember
By	Kelsey Kramer
Updated Feb 26, 2020 at 8:55pm
getty	Julio Jones, #6 overall pick by the Atlanta Falcons.
On January 7th, 2011 Julio Jones decided to forego his senior year and declare for the NFL Draft. So in February of 2011, the 21-year-old, a junior from the University of Alabama found himself competing at the NFL Combine in Indianapolis.
If you google "best NFL combine performances" you will see Bo Jackson from 1986 with a ridiculous 40-yard dash time, Deion Sanders the two-sport athlete from 1989 and even Tim Tebow in 2010 who didn't make it very far in the NFL. However, you will not see Julio Jones' performance ranked high.
While Jackson, Sanders, and Tebow were incredible athletes and put up memorable numbers at the NFL Combine, they did not do it with a fractured foot—Julio Jones did.
Greatness is a choice.
Julio Jones chooses greatness daily. pic.twitter.com/dIgOwxQQhR
— Atlanta Falcons (@AtlantaFalcons) February 26, 2020
"Jet" Jones ran a top speed 40-yard dash time of 4.41. This was remarkable considering a man his size isn't supposed to run that fast. Former Ole Miss wideout, DK Metcalf beat that time last year with a 4.33 time that drew a lot of attention. Metcalf may have beaten Jones' record, but he didn't beat it with a broken foot.
Jones did the three-cone drill in 6.66 seconds, the 60-yard shuttle in 11.07 seconds, and 17 bench reps. He had a broad jump of 11-foot-3, only an inch off as one of the top best jumps in combine history. He also had a vertical of 38.5 inches
In the 2011 pre-draft, Georgia's A.J. Green who now plays for the Bengals was projected to be the best receiver and drafted No. 1 overall. Green performed pretty well at the NFL Combine, but Jones outdid him.
Also, follow the Heavy on Falcons Facebook page for the latest breaking news, rumors, and content!
Jones' pre-draft profile said he was "an ideal NFL receiver size, explosive off the line, at up cushions in a hurry, a good blocker, and he was tough and extremely competitive."
The Atlanta Falcons risked it for the biscuit (Julio) by trading away five draft picks in both of the 2011 and 2012 NFL Drafts. Jones was drafted in the first round as the No. 6 overall draft pick. He admitted he was shocked when he heard the trade, but told Atlanta he wouldn't let them down.
Last season, "Jet" Jones became the fastest player in NFL history to reach 12,000 yards.
His top performance, let's not forget with a broken foot that called for surgery, in Indy is the one reason he had made the jump from the 14th pick in many early mock drafts to No. 6.
But the real question lies, how much better would Jones have done without a broken bone holding him back?

Julio Jones didn't just put up impressive numbers at the 2011 combine, he did it with a broken foot. Now, one can only imagine what it would have been like if he wasn't injured.

The Fight Against Cancer Gets Additional Support
Featured Healthy Living Lifestyle
By American Brain Tumor Association, Special for USDR
The Senate Committee on Appropriations today approved legislation that provides for the inclusion of "brain cancer" among the disorders eligible for study by the Department of Defense's (DoD) Peer Reviewed Cancer Research Program (PRCRP). This provision was included in the fiscal year 2017 Defense Appropriations Act, and mirrors action taken by the House on May 11 to add brain cancer to the PRCRP in its version of the Defense Appropriations Act.
"Both the House and Senate have now spoken on the importance of expanding federal research into brain cancer," said Elizabeth Wilson, president and CEO, American Brain Tumor Association. "We are grateful to Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) for making this request, and we also thank the Senate Appropriations Committee for listening to our community and including this in their annual defense spending bill."
The PRCRP is a competitive grant program that funds research into several cancers and cancer-related disorders. Every year, Congress appropriates funding for the PRCRP through the Defense Appropriations Act, and specifically designates the types of cancers that are eligible for funding.
Previously funded at $50 million, the Senate this year included a $10 million increase in funding for the overall PRCRP program. ABTA led the effort to include brain cancer in the PRCRP, working with Senator Markey in the Senate and Representative Mike Quigley (D-IL) in the House.
Both House and Senate Defense Appropriations bills must go before their full respective chambers for approval, which may happen sometime in June. However, having the brain cancer designation in both House and Senate bills significantly increases the likelihood that the provision will remain in the final bill should Congress be able to complete a final package of spending bills at the end of the year. ABTA will continue to work throughout the year to protect the language.
"May is Brain Tumor Awareness Month, and we've been able to celebrate some significant milestones this month," said Wilson. "Our members will stay engaged with their Members of Congress to protect this funding and get this provision signed into law."
The Senate bill also maintains eligibility for funding "pediatric brain tumor" research through the PRCRP, a designation that has been included for several consecutive years in the annual Defense Appropriations Act.
About the American Brain Tumor Association
Founded in 1973, the American Brain Tumor Association was first and is the only national advocacy organization committed to funding brain tumor research and providing education and information for all tumor types and all age groups.

I've been screwing around the past few days trying to do a tailwhip. I can't seem to get it. Does anyone know how to do one, and if so can you please post a "How to"?
ok well i think what we should do is sticky all the how tos so the asking ones can go below. Ok anyways i dont have these down just yet because they are freaking hard.
Anyways you hit the ramp and kick the bike out with your feet while making a circle motion with your hands and keep your weight over the bars and then catch it with your feet. Its really hard though you might get the rotation but not the feet back on.
Yeah I've got the rotation down fine. I just can't get back on lol. Can anybody do these?
ok keep your feet in control by kicking your kicking foot with your opposite foot so when it comes around your not all sprawled out.
You must be able to bunnyhop VERY well to land this. Id say at least stem height.
Also its important to use your upperbody to manhandle the bike around back under you and to pull yourself down onto the pedals. Practice them out of a quarter or something if you can.
Chris also points out its important to kick it on the frame kind of by the seat post. Its much easier to whip it around with that leverage.
Another thing is you need to keep the bike "underneath" you, and not way over your head.

Dog Soldiers: The Wild History of the Most Action Packed Werewolf Movie Ever Made
by Mike Cecchini
There is no shortage of werewolf movies scattered across the century of horror cinema. Whether it's the original lycanthropic classic The Wolf Man, which spawned the very first shared cinematic universe, or the genre's still unmatched final form with 1981's An American Werewolf in London, lycanthropes of all shapes and sizes have loped and howled their way into our hearts through the decades.
But even among those highlights, there's a certain sameness to far too many werewolf movies: The tragic individual, the creeping dread as the full moon draws near, perhaps a prophecy detailing how the poor soul is doomed to kill even those they love the most when in the grip of the curse, the final fate involving something silver. You know how it goes.
But 2002's Dog Soldiers dispenses with most of that, allowing the audience's general pop culture knowledge of the genre to

AlmirallShare, the open innovation R&D platform of Almirall, S.A. (ALM), has attracted the attention of scientists from universities, research centres, and start-ups interested in dermatological research, proving to be a successful platform designed to facilitate the establishment of collaborations in dermatological research and find innovative solutions in medical dermatology. To date, over 450 scientists from all continents have subscribed to AlmirallShare and over 170 different proposals have been received.
AlmirallShare addresses challenges such as the identification of therapeutic targets and experimental disease models, the development of new therapeutic treatments as well as novel technologies in dermatology. These challenges are translated into Calls for Proposals (CFPs) that are published on AlmirallShare web page (sharedinnovation.almirall.com), so that scientists from all continents can submit their proposals for collaborations.Since its launch in September 2017, we have issued three CFPs. The first CFP was focused on increasing the understanding of skin pathology in our core diseases by funding the development of translational preclinical models.In 2018, we issued the CFP 'Adding Value to Your Assets' to find a use for existing advanced small molecules in the therapeutic treatment of diseases. It will be open on permanent basis. The most recent CFP, 'Novel Targets for Skin Health', offered research funding for work on novel targets that may form the basis for new medicines in dermatological diseases. It is open until the end of February 2019.Outstanding results of 2018 are the establishment of two research partnerships on preclinical models for atopic dermatitis. We have funded research by Professor Dr. Günther Eissner, Principal Investigator of Translational Systems Biology, and Dr. Leila Smith, from the System Biology Ireland, at the University College Dublin (Ireland) on the development of a novel atopic dermatitis murine model. The work by Professor Craig Murdoch, Dr. Helen Colley and Dr. Simon Dandy from the University of Sheffield (UK) on the development of an immune competent human skin equivalent model of atopic dermatitis for preclinical drug testing has also been supported. On top of that, two biotech companies have been identified as new providers of state-of-the-art experimental models."We are excited about AlmirallShare results achieved so far. We have started our journey to develop new therapies for medical dermatology sharing Science and innovation with the Scientific community", said Maribel Crespo, AlmirallShare Leader. "AlmirallShare is helping to advance our R&D strategy, focused on delivering true breakthrough innovation and real differentiation for patients and healthcare professionals".

Stuart Bowden does not so much swim through his storytelling show, he positively luxuriates and wallows in it, keeping the audience onside in their expectations of comedy as he allows his quirky humour to shine and carefully negotiates his audience into a splendid silence.
For the opening minutes he simply plays with a Casio piano, singing inane little doodling songs in perfect falsetto then deep bass, drawing the giggles as drops the knowledge that the audience are all dead into his script - to the expected hysterical edge of laughter.
It is this ability to know his audience and play with them that inspires. The story he draws, shaggy dog-style, into existence could be related with quite cruel effect in three or four minutes. A tale of a boy whose love has left him and who survives, alone, after the world ends - only to be picked up by an alien who just happens to have built an Earth replica to pass away the time.
Yet this doesn't feel like self-indulgence. The joy is in the telling. And the punchline reveal, that if someone walks out on you it isn't the end of the world, is a subliminal masterpiece.

I am a huge fan of sports romance and this book did not disappoint me as it was both fun and romantic. This was my first time reading a book by Kelly Jamieson and I enjoyed her dual point of view writing style as well as her her well written characters. I loved Jase's character because he was able to get over his weaknesses and insecurities and make something of himself and he did not flash his money or bask in his popularity. Remi's character was a bit annoying at times because she never though about herself and was always babying her siblings even though it was time for them to grow up. She also was very insecure when it came to Jase and was always doubting his reasons for being with her. The chemistry between Jase and Remi was scorching hot and was well conceived as their relationship was about more than just the physical aspect. I really enjoyed the book, but I felt that it lacked drama and that it was rushed at the end as I would have liked to see more about how they coped with their new situation. Overall this was a great sports romance and I am definitely looking forward to reading the rest of the series.
Jase and Remi are both looking for a scorching not strings attached affair. Jase had recently broke up with his long time girlfriend because he did not want to commit and Remi, who is a school teacher, just saw the last of her younger siblings leave the nest. Jase is not ready for anything serious and Remi has had enough with being serious.
Their hot affair becomes complicated when felling start getting involved. Then responsibility begins to mess up their relationship when Jase's past comes knocking on the door. Now Jase and Remi have to both figure out what they really want.

The Bylot Sound is a sound in the North Star Bay, Avannaata municipality, northwest Greenland.

Geography
This channel separates Saunders Island and Wolstenholme Island from the Greenland mainland. Its minimum width is , between Wolstenholme Island and Cape Atholl, the mainland point at its southeastern end. There is a tombolo named Uummannaq on the mainland shore at the eastern end of the sound by the former settlement of Pituffik.

History
This strait was named after 17th-century English navigator Robert Bylot, who led two expeditions to find the Northwest Passage.

In the winter of 1849–1850 under Commander James Saunders of  got frozen-in in the sound during an Arctic expedition to search and resupply Captain Sir James Clark Ross' venture, who in turn had sailed in 1848 trying to locate the whereabouts of Sir John Franklin's expedition. While his ship was trapped by ice Commander Saunders named numerous landmarks in that area.

In 1968 a B-52 bomber carrying four thermonuclear bombs crashed in the ice of the Bylot Sound spreading contaminated material over the whole sector.

The abandoned Inuit settlements of Narsaarsuk and Pituffik were located on the shores of the sound. Thule Air Base is currently the only inhabited place in the area.

Dippers Rest used to be the linhay at Stonehayes Farm. A linhay is a type of farm building often found in Devon and Somerset which were used to house livestock in the open fronted first storey, and above this there would have been a loft for storing hay.
But that's all long gone now and these days Dippers Rest is used for happy holidays instead. Because it sleeps 6 people in three bedrooms it's a good option for a family with 4 children, for two couples with one child each, or for multi-generational families; bring Granny and Grandad, why not? They'll love it too!
Walk in to a bright and airy open plan living space, it's like a breath of fresh air, all crisp and fresh. You'll find country charm throughout at Dippers Rest; big stone walls, some left bare, some painted white, rustic timbers, and quirky windows. Right in front of you is the dining table and beyond it full height windows and a door giving the most gorgeous views across the valley and opening onto the private garden for Dippers Rest. To the right is the kitchen, all fully modern with an electric oven, upright fridge freezer, dishwasher, microwave, wine cooler and washer/dryer.
Through to the left is the living room, with leather sofas to curl up on, a Freeview TV and DVD player for in-house entertainment; in the corner of the room there's a wood-burner which is a delight to come back to after a country ramble in the colder months.
Off the kitchen is Bedroom 2, which you can have as a twin or double room, with a wet room right next door. Through the sitting room is a lobby with Bedroom 3 off to the right - again a twin or double room, and to the left is a loo, and doors to the rear courtyard.
Bedroom 1 is upstairs and has a pine double bed, plus room for a cot; the en suite bathroom has a P bath with an overhead shower.
We often take bookings from a few families who want to holiday together so they take two or three cottages; it's a good idea because you get to spend heaps of time together but you still get your own space, and what works really well is that if you include Wagtail Corner in your booking, you can all eat together in there because it has enough room for an optional table to seat 14. If you've got a special celebration, say a birthday or anniversary, there's your answer!
"Great cottages. Would highly recommend Stonehayes Farm."


DXY is looking very tired here and it is quite evident that the rally on this one week chart is losing steam. This can be seen in the indicator trendlines moving down against the price action. My money is on the Euro here to rebound fairly soon. It is indicating that it is builing up energy for a reversal.
However, when big reversals are about to happen there can be a short term spike before the collapse. The US dollar may move up quicky and send the Euro down through 113 in the short term. The Euro has been clinging to the support of the weekly 200 MA for sometime and the dollar may knock it off this perch but it would be a fake breakout and a catalyst for a euro rally in my opinion.


MANCHESTER UNITED new-boy Memphis Depay has revealed he turned down a number of clubs in order to secure a move to Old Trafford.
The Red Devils struck a deal, which is understood to be in the region of £25m, for the Dutch attacking midfielder yesterday afternoon.
A number of Europe's top club's were interested in securing the 21-year-old's signature, including United's bitter rivals Liverpool.
And Depay - who has found the back of the net 27 times this season - has revealed he turned down a switch to Anfield in order to seal a move to the Theatre of Dreams.
When asked if other clubs were interested in signing him, the PSV ace said: "Yes, but you shouldn't believe all the rumours in the media.
"In the end it was just a matter of feeling, not a matter of money.
"It was an exciting and pretty hectic period, and to have a choice between so many top clubs doesn't make it any easier.
"For me, Manchester United is an absolute dream club, so I didn't need any convincing of the guys who already play at Manchester United.
"They told me only positive things though, and I'm looking forward to playing with my Dutch teammates next to all the other great players of Manchester United. And working with manager Louis van Gaal again is also a big bonus."


The Ontario Genealogical Society was formed in 1961 with a mission to encourage, bring together and assist those interested in the pursuit of family history. With 34 Branches and Special Interest Groups across the province of Ontario, we have spent over fifty years working to encourage genealogists in their research, promote genealogical standards, create, preserve, and make available genealogical resources in Ontario, and share our expertise and assistance.
Family Histories: The library holds over 3000 donated family histories. If a book was written about one of your families, a copy may have been donated to our OGS Library. If you have written your family history, the library would be delighted to accept a copy for the collection.
Periodicals: The library regularly receives over two hundred genealogical and heritage periodicals. Many are family newsletters received as donations from the issuing family association. Others are received in exchange for the society's publication Families or by subscription.
Family Pedigrees: Deposited pedigrees and other miscellaneous genealogical papers are kept in numbered files. There are over 90 000 names found on these charts. If someone has done work on one of your families, they may have donated a chart of that work.
Huguenot Collection: The Ontario Genealogical Society holds the library of the former Huguenot Society of Canada including its collection of vertical name files.
The Huguenot books are in our library but the vertical files are not. They are in the OGS Provincial Office, at the request of the Huguenot Society. People are welcome to visit us to look in these files by appointment. Contact the Provincial Office 416-489-0734 or by email at research@ogs.on.ca if you wish to review these files.

William Alexander Robson (1895-1980) was an influential scholar in administrative law as well as political science, writes Professor Edward Page. An important academic entrepreneur, he helped set up some of the early institutions of the discipline of political science. Through his work in the Greater London Group at LSE he had a significant impact on the reform of London government in the 1960s.
Robson's association with LSE started in 1919 when he joined as an undergraduate. He had worked for an aviation company (becoming assistant manager of Hendon Aerodrome) before joining the RAFC and serving on active duty in France as well as protecting London from Zeppelin attacks. He had written numerous articles on aviation and a book (Aircraft in War and Peace 1916) which examined its transformative effect on society.
It seems likely that Robson's aviation work attracted the attention of George Bernard Shaw, and through Shaw the Webbs were persuaded to suspend LSE regulations to allow him to matriculate. Robson graduated in 1922 and was called to the bar, but managed to complete a PhD at LSE (that was later published as The Relation of Wealth to Welfare) in 1924. He was appointed Lecturer in Administrative Law in 1926 and became a Reader in 1933. He served in several ministries during the Second World War, reaching the position of Assistant Secretary. He became Professor of Public Administration in 1947. Upon retirement in 1962 he became Professor Emeritus and continued writing and teaching right up until his death in 1980. His wife Juliette, nee Alvin, (1897–1982) was a top international cellist and major pioneer of music therapy.
William Robson's most enduring academic impact was in the field of administrative law, above all through his 1928 work Justice and Administrative Law. Robson was in the vanguard of what might be considered as an LSE attack on Oxford's AV Dicey whose work Robson thought confused, dangerous and wrong. Government departments and public organisations other than courts were acquiring judicial powers and these needed to be subjected not to a "rigid system of inflexible private rights, enforceable in the courts of law almost regardless of … urgent social needs" but a new kind of control. Robson, like other leading LSE administrative lawyers such as Ivor Jennings and John Griffith, believed that judges could primarily only be trusted to stand in the way of social progress. That is why Robson proposed a system of administrative tribunals specifically to deal with the exercise of ministerial powers.
Robson published across the field of public administration including major books on the civil service (1937) and nationalised industries (1960). His first Fabian pamphlet covered the question of establishing a more professional and better paid municipal civil service, and his work became increasingly taken up with local government studies: The Town Councillor (co-written in 1925 with Clement Attlee). The Development of Local Government (1931), The Government and Misgovernment of London (1939) and Local Government in Crisis (1966).
Robson founded the Greater London Group at LSE in 1958 to conduct research in connection with the Herbert Commission which had been set up to look into the reform of London government. Other leading members of the group such as John Griffith, David Donnison, and Peter Self disagreed with the Robson line (a general purpose single municipality for London with smaller boroughs below), each for a variety of different reasons. The Herbert Commission proposals were closer to Robson's line of argument than anyone else's.
Robson made several contributions to the emerging discipline of political science. With financial support from George Bernard Shaw, Robson and his friend Leonard Woolf co-founded The Political Quarterly in 1930 as a forum for bringing "progressive" analytical thought to bear on contemporary political issues; he remained chairman of its editorial board until 1975. He was one of the co-founders of the UK Political Studies Association (and wanted to call it the "Political Science Association" but was overruled by his more conservative colleagues, many from LSE). Robson was very active in the early years of the International Political Science Association and became its second president in 1952.
A committed Fabian socialist, he never shared some leading Fabians' enthusiasm for the Soviet Union. In fact, when he wrote to his friend George Bernard Shaw in June 1934 asking him "how much of your work do you think you would have been allowed to do … under one of the dictatorships?", Shaw replied "I have received a letter signed W[illiam] A R[obson] but evidently written by the Duchess of Atholl [a vociferous opponent of the Soviet Union]. Anyhow I have done my share for the P[olitical] Q[uarterly] and will waste no more money on it".
The work of the Greater London Group lives on at LSE London, now a research centre in the Department of Geography. See our website at http://www.lse.ac.uk/geographyAndEnvironment/research/london/Home.aspx. Prof Emeritus George Jones (third from the left in the first Greater London Group photo) is still a regular visitor to the LSE London offices in Portsmouth Street.


Conch Bar Village as seen from Big Hill, Middle Caicos.
The main road through Conch Bar Village, Middle Caicos.
Along with Bambarra and Lorimers, Conch Bar is one of three settlements on Middle Caicos.
The largest settlement on Middle Caicos and the first encountered when crossing over from North Caicos by the causeway, Conch Bar boasts a population of around 100, a school, several churches, Daniel's Café and the defunct Middle Caicos Airport (MDS). Found close by is the attraction of Conch Bar Caves.
There's not a large amount to see in Conch Bar, however, we recommend stopping by the Middle Caicos Co-op next to Daniel's Café to see the island's best gift shop. It's also worth the short hike to climb the bluff, Big Hill, directly to the west of the village. Here, excellent panoramic views are had over most of the island and over the Caicos barrier reef.
Although largely forgotten today, several Loyalist-era plantations once operated in the Conch Bar Region.
The stone shells of two such sites, Stubbs's Plantation and Ferguson Plantation, still remain hidden in the dense coastal vegetation.
Cotton and sisal (a fibrous agave raised for rope production) were the primary crops grown and remnants of these original plants can be seen throughout the area.

It is a special type of beacon, also known as "skinny fat". The fat is interspersed with muscle fibers sometimes quite substantial.
Pancetta can be kept for curing, can be "stretched" or "curled. " It is very tasty and often is eaten like a real salami. It can be flavored (if rolled up) with pepper and herbal aromas. It is used as lard, which, however, is more tasty. It can be cooked in a soup full of vegetables and then divide it into pieces after cooking. Chopped or cut into small cubes or strips adds flavor to food with which it cooks.
Especially suited to peas, processed in any way. Minced, salt and chopped herbs, such as lard, you can keep it in a bowl with lid, for the same use, and will also be great served in a rustic way, with polenta or grilled, according to a use of Veneto and mountaineer.
The pancetta can also be smoked and served sliced as well as sausages, and cooked for food, which will give a special flavor. I use pancetta for the pasta sausage, prepared with tomato sauce, a few mint leaves, pepper and salt.

Is Oklahoma about to execute an innocent man?
Richard Glossip is scheduled to be executed by the State of Oklahoma on Wednesday. He was convicted of killing his boss, Barry Van Treese, who was bludgeoned to death with a baseball bat at a Best Budget Inn in Oklahoma City that Van Treese owned. The only witness against him was the person who confessed to the murder, a 19-year-old named Justin Sneed who worked as a maintenance man at the motel. The Guardian reports,
There is no DNA or nor any fingerprints linking him to the 1997 murder of Van Treese in the Best Budget Inn in Oklahoma City. His lawyers this week noted that the prosecutors themselves admitted in 2004 that "the physical evidence doesn't directly implicate Mr Glossip".
Rather, Glossip was convicted based on the testimony of Justin Sneed, a 19-year-old maintenance worker who, at various points during his police interrogation a week after the murder, said he didn't know Van Treese, then that he didn't kill van Treese, then that he had killed him accidentally, and then that he had killed him intentionally, under Glossip's instruction. Eventually, Sneed agreed to a plea deal in which he would testify against Glossip to save himself from the death penalty.
Transcripts of the police interrogation show Sneed first denied any knowledge of the murder. "I don't really know what to say about it," he told investigators, stumbling over a story about his brother before admitting that he robbed Van Treese but "I only meant to knock him out".
"The thing about it is, Justin, we think – we know that this involves more than just you, okay?" Detective Bob Bemo said to Sneed, later introducing Glossip as a snitch. "You know Rich is under arrest don't you?… [H]e's putting it on you the worst."
Sneed's story shifted.
"Actually, Rich asked me to kill Barry, that's what he'd done," Sneed said, and investigators took the conversation off-camera, where Sneed signed a plea deal.
This is an excellent example of how an innocent person can be wrongfully convicted and sentenced to death. A few days ago, Barry Scheck, the co-director of the Innocence Project, wrote a letter to Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin asking her to stop his execution. He asked the right question,
Why would anybody trust this testimony, given by a man like Sneed under the circumstances in which he gave it? But if Sneed was lying about Glossip's involvement — as he unquestionably lied in his various contradictory statements–then Oklahoma is about to execute an innocent man.
The Death Penalty Information Center has the following update on Richard Glossip:
Former Oklahoma Senator Tom Coburn (pictured), former Oklahoma Sooners and Dallas Cowboys football coach Barry Switzer, and John W. Raley, Jr., the former chief federal prosecutor for the Eastern District of Oklahoma, have joined with innocence advocates Barry Scheck, Co-Director of the Innocence Project, and Samuel Gross, editor of the National Registry of Exonerations, in a letter to Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin urging her to stay the execution of Richard Glossip.
I have long argued that no conviction that is based solely on the uncorroborated testimony of a codefendant or jailhouse snitch should stand. Such a rule is a necessary part of any meaningful criminal justice reform.

An Oklahoma appellate court has granted a two week stay of execution for Richard Glossip while it considers motions filed by his attorneys.
http://wrongfulconvictionsblog.org/2015/09/16/glossip-execution-stayed-in-oklahoma/
I'm hoping against all hope that this man's life will be spared, how awful to be killed because of one mans word….what are they going to do when it is proven this man killed no one; they can't bring him back.
And the "one man's word" is the word of a murderer. And, probably, an addict and a thief.
He implicated Glossip to save his own butt that should be enough to reasonable doubt for any jury….where is the evidence showing Glossip was involved.
Only a lobotomy could solve Kim's problem … she needs to be shuffled on out of office for failure to comply with the law. Shouldn't be difficult since she was elected by only a margin of a couple dozen votes in an off year last November. .
I'm betting the deciding votes didn't even know who the hell she was; just voted for whoever was already in that position because hey, who cares?
Digressions from Morningwood says:
No one would fault Governor Fallin if she granted a 60 day stay in this case. If she refuses, it indicates she hasn't likely reviewed the material that has convinced hundreds of thousands of people around the world that our state is about to murder an innocent man.
In 2004, Rick Perry couldn't be bothered to review exculpatory evidence that arrived on the day Texas executed Cameron Todd Willingham. A stay of execution would have given sensible and reasonable judges a chance to review the new evidence. That execution cannot be undone. Oops.
Governor Fallin won't seem tough. She will be like George W. Bush and Rick Perry. Tough on criminals, merciless, and wrong.
This horrible case should be a lesson that our juries should not possess the option of the death penalty. We've never learned to wield this terrifying power. Executing Roger Dale Stafford is one thing; executing Richard Glossip is quite another.
Until Wednesday, hope remains, though.
The execution of Cameron Todd Willingham was an absolute disgrace. I fear Fallin will deny the 60 day request and allow the execution to take place.
It's amazing how medieval we are. WORSE. We go for gladiatorial contests between parties where we have chosen in advance who will lose. Disgusting and demoralizing.
I've heard something to the effect that Kim Davis claims that the contempt of court order which put her in jail before is only about certain marriage license applications that she denied before. In other words, she claims that any applications that she denies in the future are irrelevant and should not cause he to be sent back to jail.
In the meantime, one of her deputy/assistant clerks has said that he intends to go on issuing licenses for same-sex marriages, even if he gets in trouble with Kim for doing so. Would this solve the problem for her (at least for the time being), and keep her out of jail, since people will be able to get their marriage licenses?
The court's contempt order was issued because she refused to issue marriage licenses to same sex couples who had applied for them. The judge lifted it after the deputy clerks issued the licenses. When he released her, he warned her that she would face additional sanctions, if she refused to issue licenses in the future. He will order her back to jail, if she refuses and prevents her deputies from issuing them.
It is not just the use of an uncorroborated accusation, induced by death threats, it's also that Sneed's story is contradicted by a witness in the room next door who heard arguing.
If it was murder-for-hire, an assassination, as the prosecution claim, what was there to argue about?
And the confessed killer took no actions to avoid being identified as the killer, inconsistent with a planned murder-for-hire.
It has recently emerged that some jurors rightly didn't believe this nonsense, but convicted on a "murder by omission" theory – on the basis that the killer confessed to Glossip soon afterwards.
There are at least two problems with this – firstly Glossip didn't initially believe Sneed, assuming he was not serious, and secondly the victim was already dead, despite the testimony of the Medical Examiner at the second trial, which was not consistent with the autopsy report.
Unfortunately, these revelations appear to have come too late to save a patently innocent man from being executed.
I recently completed a Coursera MOOC in wrongful conviction offered by Pennsylvania State U, if I remember the university correctly. It is truly shocking how often prosecutors use unreliable jail snitches to gain convictions. No vote of confidence from me in regard to this case!
The Death Penalty is Unconstitutional in my humble opinion. Our Founding Fathers specified one crime deserving death and that was Treason. All others should not be Cruel and Unusual Punishment. Nothing is more cruel and unusual than death.
I agree with your legal reasoning in this case and in others. That is the way to argue it in a Court of Law.
My reason is that it is morally wrong and that won't persuade anyone. I don't want the State or Federal Government killing someone in my Country.
I think Scalia said the DP isn't unusual.
I think it depends on where you are.
ed nelson says:
flying leap,
Wow!… Glossip, and Sneed… ! There is a couple of weird… Anglopile sounding names.
We should go back to … Son of Erik, Son of Fred (Fredericksen)… Son of a B or WTF!
Sneed… ! Shit he should take a fyi'n leap…. What a horrible name!
Not so much, if his first name is Sam.
But IIRC, Sam Snead spelled it with an ea, not an ee.
nancybenefiel says:
There was a time in this country when the idea of executing an innocent human being was abhorrent to people. Nowadays, they seem to think if in doubt just kill the guy. It's truly repulsive.
Justice Scalia doesn't have a problem with executing an innocent person, so long as they were accorded a fair trial and due process of law.
It is horrible and repulsive, you know waht… ? if one goes into the system, he is better off Dead!..
Put that into the equation, I mean… let the lawyers get a pay day, but forget interminent icarceration…. that is cruel!!
He doesn't want to be executed, so his lawyers are fighting to save his life.
Scallia shoulda been a garbage man
Amen to that. Some of his opinions are truly scary.
Scalia is one of the most repulsive people on the face of the earth he is a sociopath PERIOD!
