PM Modi in landmark visit to steer Sri Lanka away from China
PM Modi of India signs the golden books after arriving in Sri Lanka on March 13, 2015.
COLOMBO - Narendra Modi began the first official visit by an Indian premier to Sri Lanka in nearly three decades Friday, looking to reassert New Delhi's influence over Colombo after its drift towards China.
Modi will hold talks with Sri Lanka's new President Maithripala Sirisena, who has promised to repair international ties damaged under his predecessor Mahinda Rajapakse's China-friendly regime, after a ceremonial welcome in Colombo.
The Indian prime minister will also address parliament and visit the Tamil-dominated northern Jaffna region on a visit that comes just weeks after Sirisena made India his first foreign port of call since his election in January.
While observers don't expect major policy initiatives so soon after the neighbouring leaders' last meeting, it is seen as an important signal of a desire to reset ties.
"I am sure together we are going to script a golden chapter in the history of India-Sri Lanka relations," Modi said this week as he set off on a three-nation Indian Ocean island tour that has already taken him to the Seychelles and Mauritius.
He travels north on Saturday for a landmark visit to the Jaffna peninsula, home to the island's Tamil minority and which bore the brunt of a 37-year separatist war in which India was intricately involved.
Modi is expected to push for demilitarisation in the former war zone and more autonomy for minority Tamils who share close cultural and religious ties with those across the Palk Strait in Tamil Nadu.
Modi will be the first Indian prime minister to hold bilateral talks in Colombo since 1987, although several predecessors attended regional summits.
Rifle assault
When Rajiv Gandhi visited in 1987, the then premier was famously assaulted with a rifle butt by a Sri Lankan naval rating while inspecting a guard of honour.
Gandhi had gone to sign a bilateral pact that sought to end a guerrilla war by Tamil separatist rebels who had effectively enjoyed a safe haven in India since the mid 1980s.
The main rebel group, the Tamil Tigers, repudiated the peace accord and India ended up fighting the militants they had once trained and armed.
Around 1,140 Indian soldiers lost their lives during the 32-month deployment in Sri Lanka and Gandhi himself was assassinated in 1991 by a female Tiger suicide bomber while campaigning in Tamil Nadu.
After the war ended in 2009, relations remained strained and Sirisena's predecessor Rajapakse caused unease in New Delhi by forging close ties with Beijing.
India, which traditionally regarded Sri Lanka as within its sphere of influence, was furious last year when Rajapakse allowed two Chinese submarines to dock in Colombo.
Under Rajapakse, Sri Lanka built up steady debts as Beijing funded a string of major construction projects.
Since his loss to Sirisena in a January election, the pendulum has swung back towards India with the new president making attempts to renegotiate the terms of some loans.
Sri Lanka's new rulers last month also ordered a suspension of China's biggest investment project, a $1.4 billion new city on reclaimed land just next to Colombo's main sea port.
'Diplomatic recalibration'
Mangala Samaraweera, Sirisena's foreign minister, has said that while Colombo wants to retain good relations with China, "we will not go overboard like the Rajapakse regime".
Charu Lata Hogg, a Sri Lanka expert at London's Chatham House think-tank, said there were signs of "a recalibration in its previous relationships with China in favour of improved ties with the West and India".
Modi is expected to finalise energy and construction deals, including funding for Sri Lanka's creaking railways.
He will also lay the foundation stone for a cultural centre in battle-scarred Jaffna where he is expected to receive a rapturous reception.
He will be only the second foreign leader since independence to visit the region, where India is seen by locals as a crucial protector against the dominance of the ethnic Sinhalese majority.
Beijing was a key defender of Sri Lanka at international forums when Rajapakse came under criticism over its rights record and allegations that 40,000 Tamil civilians were killed at the end of the war.
Modi's predecessor, Manmohan Singh, pointedly shunned a Commonwealth summit hosted by Rajapakse in 2013 over the treatment of Tamils.

This Military Service Page was created/owned by SGT Robert Briggs (squadleader)-Deceased to remember Barker, Jack Lamar, MAJ.
On March 20, 1971, Barker was piloting a UH-1H (serial #66-16185) Huey helicopter. The aircraft was participating in a troop extraction mission in the Savannakhet Province of Laos. As the helicopter approached the landing zone, it was hit by heavy enemy ground fire. It exploded in the air and there were no survivors. Continued enemy activity in the area prevented any recovery attempts.
LAM SON 719 was a large offensive operation against NVA communications lines in Laos. The operation called for ARVN troops to drive west from Khe Sanh, cut the Ho Chi Minh Trail, seize Tchpone and return to Vietnam. The ARVN would provide and command the ground forces, while U.S. Army and Air Force would furnish aviation airlift and supporting firepower.
The 101st Airborne Division commanded all U.S. Army aviation units in direct support of the operation. Most of the first part of the operation, begun January 30, 1971, was called Operation DEWEY CANYON II, and was conducted byU.S. ground forces in Vietnam. The ARVN were halfway on February 11 and positioned for the attack across the Laotian border. On 8 February, ARVN began to push into Laos. The NVA reacted fiercely, but the ARVN held its positions supported by U.S. airstrikes and resupply runs by Army helicopters. President Nguyen Van Thieu ordered a helicopter assault on Tchepone, and the abandoned village was seized March 6. Two weeks of hard combat were necessary for the ARVN task force to fight its way back to Vietnam. Towards the end of the removal, a helicopter from Company B, 101st Aviation Battalion was lost.
Major Barker distinguished himself while piloting an observation helicopter during extraction operations of South Vietnamese troops near Fire Support Base Brown, Laos. As his aircraft approached the pickup zone, the enemy unleashed a barrage of automatic weapons fire upon his helicopter, forcing the attempt to be aborted. On the second approach, the enemy flak was so intense that the rescue effort was again aborted. Sustaining severe battle damage to his aircraft, Major Barker flew his crippled airship back to Khe Sanh. Realizing that the wounded personnel needed immediate evacuation, Major Barker mounted another helicopter and again departed to the besieged pickup zone. As his aircraft made its final descent, it was struck by an enemy rocket propelled grenade round, causing the ship to explode in mid-air. Major barker expired in the ensuing crash.
Major Barker's extraordinary heroism and devotion to duty, at the cost of his life, were in keeping with the highest traditions of the military service and reflect great credit upon himself, his unit, and the United States Army.


Two-time Olympic champion, Evgeny Pluschenko, has undergone successful surgery on his spine in an Israeli clinic, with the figure skater getting an intervertebral disc replaced.
Back pain forced Pluschenko to withdraw from the European championships last week after a failed short program.
According to Mishin, the figure skater has completely rubbed out one of his intervertebral discs, which was replaced with a plastic one.
The surgery is expected to allow the 30-year-old to continue competing at the top level and perform difficult elements.
Pluschenko has stated his intention to remain in the sport, despite health problems, in order to represent Russia at the home Olympics in Sochi 2014.

The Exorcist Claiming To Cure The Sick Of Their Demons: The Murky Truth Of Modern Exorcisms
Journalist Andrew Gold visits an internationally renowned exorcist in Buenos Aires, who claims to cure the sick of their demons and battle against evil. As well as running the world's first 'school for exorcists', Padre Manuel Acuña often appears alongside models and celebrities on Argentinian TV and radio. He has fostered a huge following in the poor suburbs of Buenos Aires, where he uses controversial techniques in an apparent attempt to heal the sick, with seemingly great success. With bizarre interactions, violent exorcisms and one particularly tense argument, this presenter-led documentary sets to uncover the murky truth about modern exorcisms.

Andrew Gold
Trailer: My Body, Their Choice
Back in Argentina, I got to know the face of the pro-life campaign - the Crazy Baby Lady - before the vote on abortion. Film is finished, so producers get in touch! As Argentina readies itself for the most important vote in its history - to legalise abortion - presenter Andrew Gold investigates the enormous divide that separates pro-choicers and 'pro-lifers'. The face of the latter is the eccentric Mariana Varela, known as the Crazy Baby Lady. While she shows off her plastic foetuses and preaches the importance of saving foetuses, Andrew puts it to her that her stance is hypocritical - since her infamous father was part of the dictatorship that tortured and 'disappeared' people and sold their babies. As we near the vote, the country becomes more fractious, as out-of-touch pro-life politicians come out with some startling and unfounded facts. These include a doctor pronouncing that AIDS (not HIV) can travel through condoms and the claim that people are having abortions 'after 9 months'. Andrew meets a doctor who performed illegal abortions to save women's lives and speaks to young women forced into clandestine abortions under creepy and scary conditions. Many young and desperate women die from these procedures. The documentary heads towards a climax at the vote itself outside congress. The results are revealed at 4am, when riots take hold and our presenter and crew are tear gassed. All that is left after this is to confront the Crazy Baby Lady in a tense final interview. The abortion vote became huge news around the world, taking up the NY Times back page and sparking marches in support in Sydney, Paris and other major cities. In Argentina, it means even more than abortion itself - it also incorporates the nation's secular struggle against religion and the feminist fight in a society dripping in machismo.
Article 8 Right to Family Life: CHILDREN SEPARATED FROM THEIR FATHER
What's it like for children separated from their father in direct contravention of Article 8 The Right to Family Life? For On the Edge with Andrew Gold, I follow a single mother and two daughters to see how their right to family life was affected and their parents' love forced apart. Are you experiencing something similar? Please tell me about it below, as I'd love to hear from you. If you are going through this kind of situation, check out Reunite Families on Twitter and they'll point you in the right direction. Thanks for watching and please remember to like and subscribe. This affects more than 40,000 British children whose mum or dad are ineligible for visas. Many people think marriage is sufficient to bring in a foreign partner - but if the British spouse earns less than £18.6k (like 40% of the UK's adult population) they're left with Skype to bridge the gap. In the UK, this amount, known as the Minimum Income Requirement (MIR), is the highest of its kind in the world, and has been criticised as 'London-centric'. It was set by Theresa May in the Home Office in 2012. In this short documentary, I visit a mother and her daughters in Crewe to see how the heart-breaking distance from their Argentinian dad is driving them apart. The kids are losing their Spanish, and therefore, their ability to understand him. This film has some personal resonance for me, as my own partner is from Argentina. We live in Berlin, Germany, because it would be so difficult, complicated and expensive to apply for her to get a visa in the UK. It is remarkable that we now live in a country neither of us are from, with more ease than we would my in my home country of England. This gives the film a personal touch.

The UFO Festivals in South America: ALIENS IN CAPILLA DEL MONTE
As far as UFO festivals in South America go, there's no better place than Capilla del Monte to find the Real ET. Aliens in Capilla del Monte can be found at the Festival Alienigena in the tiny village, where locals are obsessed with UFO spottings. After an unexplained incident took place in 1986 (some trees were burned - presumably by a fire), the Argentine town became known as the country's national alien capital. For On the Edge with Andrew Gold, I went to meet the likes of Luz Lopez, who heads up the UFO Museum, or Centre for UFO Reports, in the capital city. And then I climbed a mountain for a meditation session that is supposed to conjure up 5th-dimensional beings known as ERCS, who supposedly live underground. As the sun descended, I saw a lot of beauty in the bucolic environs, but nothing to suggest ET paid a visit. In any case, I learned to empathise with the locals from Capilla del Monte, a village just outside Córdoba in central Argentina. I could see they were just looking for something to believe in, much like Mulder from the X-Files. I should add that I was really lucky to film this with an exceptional team. Producers Peter Scheffer and Remi Lehmann made everything happen behind the scenes, director Bas Voorwinde strung the whole creative process together, and camera operator Javier Cortiellas found some supremely stunning shots, as you'll see in the video. We actually filmed it a couple of years back, which is why I look a fair bit older and fatter and paler and less beardy in the stand-up to camera section. You'll see what I mean. Sigh. Please do remember to subscribe, so you can see more of these kinds of videos, as I publish them. And tell me, do you disagree with me about UFOs? Have they visited? Comment below, and we can chat. Oh, and follow me on Twitter for trailers, behind-the-scenes action and STUFF I HAPPEN TO BE THINKING. https://twitter.com/AndrewGold_ok Peter Scheffer: https://twitter.com/pscheff3r?lang=en Remi Lehmann: https://twitter.com/remilehmann Bas Voorwinde: http://www.basvoorwinde.com/ Javier Cortiellas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWQR9On-S0M
WHERE TO HAVE AN AFFAIR: How I got on TV to talk about dating in South America.
If you're dating in South America and want to know where to have an affair, you're in luck! This is the first video I ever made as a producer and presenter. I was out in Argentina and sent a bunch of ideas to a TV channel called Fusion. When they got back and said they'd take the one about infidelity, I was a bit shocked and had no idea what we'd actually be able to document! As it progressed, we ended up making a bit of a meta-film, a documentary about the making of the documentary. So, we saw how I ended up talking on a radio show, and then was asked onto several live TV shows to talk about cheating, as if I were some sort of cheating expert or guru. This tested my newly learned Spanish to the max. As it happened, we ended up talking on air to Viggo Mortensen, who grew up in Argentina and criticised our video. It led to further hysteria around the country and - not included in the film - I made a joke pretending to be a virgin on the TV show Duro de Domar. The 'English humour' went down like a led balloon and people began calling me 'the ultimate English virgin' on the streets. I've learned a lot about making films and my presenting style since making this. Watching it back just now, I was particularly embarrassed by the naked scene I do on a massage chair, effecting a preposterously overblown accent. I even considered taking it out, but screw it - that scene belongs in a museum, and this is my online portfolio after all. Subtitles to follow. Thanks again to the wonderful Peter Scheffer, Remi Lehmann, Thomas Seegers and Bas Voorwinde, who helped make this film happen and spark my career.

Home News Trump threatens Venezuela with 'economic actions'
Trump threatens Venezuela with 'economic actions'
US President Donald Trump threatened Venezuela with swift "economic actions" on Monday if its leader, Nicolas Maduro, pushes on with an unpopular bid to change his country's constitution in the teeth of mounting condemnation.
The warning came as the opposition coalition in Venezuela called a nationwide strike for Thursday to kick off a "final offensive" aimed at forcing Maduro from office through early elections.
Maduro, Trump said in a statement, was "a bad leader who dreams of becoming a dictator."
"The United States will not stand by as Venezuela crumbles," he said.
Trump did not specify what measures could be taken. But the warning dramatically raised the stakes and scope of the long political and economic crisis that has been battering Venezuela.
Nearly 100 people have died since April, when street protests against Maduro turned violent.
Trump's stance explicitly sided with the Venezuela's opposition, which accuses Maduro — a leftist, anti-American president who took over from his mentor, the late Hugo Chavez — of trying to accumulate dictatorial powers to hang on to the reins.
It risked feeding Maduro's frequent allegations that he was the victim of a plot by a colluding right-wing opposition and the "imperialist" United States.
– Nationwide strike –
Venezuela has faced months of deadly protests against its socialist leader, as the country suffers from shortages of basic goods, soaring inflation and climbing unemployment FEDERICO PARRA, AFP/File
Venezuela's opposition coalition has called a nationwide, 24-hour strike for Thursday to add pressure to Maduro following an unofficial weekend vote it held that rejected the leader's plan.
That plan, which Maduro has shown no sign of deviating from, entails a citizens' body — called a "Constituent Assembly" — being elected on July 30 to redo the constitution.
Maduro says that path is the only way to secure "peace" and economic recovery in Venezuela. His government has dismissed the opposition vote against it as "illegal."
But Trump said that, "if the Maduro regime imposes its Constituent Assembly on July 30, the United States will take strong and swift economic actions."
Venezuela, with the largest proven oil reserves in the world, is almost entirely reliant on its crude exports.
The United States imports around 270 million barrels of oil a year from Venezuela, according to the US government's Energy Information Administration — a volume in decline by about a third compared to a decade ago.
– 'Final offensive' –
Venezuela's opposition is intent on a "final offensive" ultimately aimed at toppling Maduro through early elections.
On Sunday, more than a third of Venezuela's 19 million voters took part in the opposition ballot, giving an overwhelming rejection to the election of a Constituent Assembly and backing a presidential election before Maduro's term ends in 2019.
The poll was lauded by the European Union, the United Nations, the US, Brazil and other countries.
However Maduro, backed by a loyal military, has up to now shrugged off the opposition tactics and the international criticism leveled at him.
Despite growing public anger at food and medicine shortages under a spiralling economic crisis that has swelled the opposition movement, authorities in Caracas portray the efforts against them as illegitimate and fomented by the US.
– 'Demand for political change' –
One leader in the opposition coalition, Freddy Guevara, said the strike this week was a "mechanism for pressure and to prepare for the definitive escalation to take place next week."
A total of 7.6 million Venezuelans turned out for Sunday's vote, at home and abroad, the opposition said.
That figure — though disputed by the government — was more than a third of Venezuela's total 19 million voters, undermining legitimacy for Maduro's future Constituent Assembly.
Brazil's foreign ministry said in a statement "the high turnout in the plebiscite… was an unmistakable sign the Venezuelan people want democracy quickly restored."
Political analyst John Magdaleno told AFP that "there is evidence of a persistent and durable demand for political change."
According to the opposition, the final turnout figure was enough to overturn Maduro's mandate should there be a recall referendum, because it exceeded the 7.5 million votes that put the president in power in 2013.
To lend weight to the vote, a group of former Latin American presidents, including Mexico's Vicente Fox, who was declared "persona non grata" by the government, took part as observers.
But Luis Vicente Leon, head of the polling firm Datanalisis, said the opposition's challenge now was to leverage the vote to "press for negotiations that would give a peaceful chance for change."

THEY'RE SCHOLARS AND ATHLETES: Hofstra's Hebbeker and Mason earn Academic All-America honors
Dec 7, 2022 | Hofstra Pride |

Two Hofstra University men's players – Hendrik Hebbeker and Stefan Mason – were named Academic All-America Wednesday by College Sports Communicators (formerly CoSIDA).
They are repeat winners after each earned the distinction in 2021.
The CSC Academic All-America men's soccer teams recognize the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances on the field and in the classroom. The CSC Academic All-America program separately recognizes soccer honorees in four divisions — NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and NAIA.
Hebbeker, a senior midfielder, earned his second consecutive spot on the first team after tallying two goals and three assists in 2022. The Cologne, Germany native has a 3.98 grade-point average as a mathematics and physics major.
Mason, a tri-captain, is also making a second consecutive appearance on the third team. A senior defender-midfielder, the Knowle, United Kingdom native has a 3.85 GAA as a finance major. He recorded one assist and was instrumental in Hofstra's defensive efforts this season.
The pair joined Arni Gunnarsson (2002, 2003), Michael Todd (2005, 2006), and Matthew Vowinkel (2020, 2021) as two-time Academic All-Americans from the men's soccer program. The program's only other Academic All-American is Storm Strongin (2020).
Hofstra finished 14-4-3 this past season and won the Colonial Athletic Association title for the second consecutive year.

HUNGARY ORDERS 16 H225M MULTI-ROLE HELICOPTERS
Blog Before Flight Staff December 16, 2018 0
Hungary orders 16 H225M multi-role helicopters.
The Hungarian Ministry of Defence has ordered 16 H225M multi-purpose helicopters equipped with the HForce weapon management system. Together with the helicopters, Airbus will also provide an extensive training and support package to ensure the highest level of operational availability.
"I am thankful for the trust that the Hungarian Government has placed in our company to support its ambitious 'Zrinyi 2026' armed forces modernisation programme. Our teams have witnessed the professionalism and enthusiasm of the Hungarian experts and pilots whose contribution has been key to ensuring the success of this project" said Bruno Even, Airbus Helicopters CEO. "This new contract confirms the H225M as a combat-proven, multi-role platform operated by the most demanding military customers worldwide. The Hungarian armed forces will be able to rely on the cost-efficient H145M / H225M tandem that will enable them to cover all of the major military missions, from light utility, tactical transport, combat search and rescue up to light attack."
The H225Ms selected by Hungary will be equipped with state-of-the-art communication capabilities and will be used for transport, combat search and rescue, and special operations missions. Its state-of-the art avionics and four axis autopilot, exceptional range and payload capacities, combined with a large cabin designed to carry up to 28 troops and powerful air-to-ground and air-to-surface armament as well as electronic warfare systems allow the H225M to carry out the most demanding missions. The helicopter has an all-weather capability supported by its night vision goggle compatibility.
The H225M is currently in service across the globe with 88 helicopters having been delivered so far. It recently surpassed the 100,000 flight hour milestone, following its first delivery to the French Air Force in 2006.

About the Refuge
Alert - Refuge fall hunts will be held as scheduled
Comprehensive Conservation Planning
National Wildlife Refuge System Improvement Act
Refuge conservation plans are called "comprehensive conservation plans" (CCPs)
Comprehensive Conservation Plan
Refuge conservation plans are called "comprehensive conservation plans" (CCPs). The purpose of a CCP is to specify a management direction for the Refuge for the next 15 years. The goals, objectives, and strategies for improving Refuge conditions—including the types of habitat we will provide, partnership opportunities, and management actions needed to achieve desired conditions – are described in the CCP. The Service's preferred alternative for managing the Refuge and its effects on the human environment, are described in the CCP as well.
National Wildlife Refuge System Improvement Act of 1997: The NWRS Improvement Act defines a unifying mission for all refuges, including a process for determining compatible uses on refuges, and requiring that each refuge be managed according to a CCP. The NWRS Improvement Act expressly states that wildlife conservation is the priority of System lands and that the Secretary shall ensure that the biological integrity, diversity, and environmental health of refuge lands are maintained. Each refuge must be managed to fulfill the specific purposes for which the refuge was established and the System mission. The first priority of each refuge is to conserve, manage, and if needed, restore fish and wildlife populations and habitats according to its purpose.

Kiyevskaya (), named for the nearby Kiyevsky railway station, is a station on the Arbatsko–Pokrovskaya line of the Moscow Metro. Opened in 1953, it is lavishly decorated in the quasi-baroque style that predominated in the early 1950s. The square pylons are faced with white Ural marble and elaborately patterned ceramic tile and the plastered ceiling is decorated with a series of frescoes by various artists depicting life in Ukraine. A large mosaic at the end of the platform commemorates the 300th anniversary of the reunification of Russia and Ukraine. Light comes from a row of hexagonal chandeliers. The architects were L. V. Lile, V. A. Litvinov, M. F. Markovsky, and V. M. Dobrokovsky.

Kiyevskaya has no vestibule of its own. Instead, escalators at the end of the hall lead to Kiyevskaya and thence to that station's entrance, which is built into the Kiyevsky railway station.

For half a century Kiyevskaya was the terminus of the Arbatsko–Pokrovskaya line; the 2003 extension to Park Pobedy ended that situation.

Transfers
From this station it is possible to transfer to Kiyevskaya on the Filyovskaya line and the Kiyevskaya on the Ring.

Over the past six years, films have been viewed over 60,000 times on YouTube and over 10,000 DVDS have been distributed. Here are some examples of how student films are being used to make a difference.
Student films are used by schools, youth programs, county behavioral health agencies and community-based organizations across the state to support awareness activities. California's Behavioral Health Agencies are integrating student films into their local Prevention and Intervention Efforts.
LA County Board Supervisor Michael Antonovich, Fifth District, presented Knight High School student, Roy Lara, and his advisor, Fabian Montagut, with scrolls recognizing his film.
The Fresno County Board of Supervisors recognized student Matt Flores from Kingsburg High School and the Board also proclaimed May 2015 as Mental Health Matters Month to increase awareness and understanding of mental illness.
Students from Mira Mesa High School who took third place in the Suicide Prevention category for their film "Lost and Found"at the NAMI San Diego film screening.
Riverside and San Bernardino Counties co-hosted a local award ceremony to recognize schools and students. The event had a great turnout with about 200 attendees from 11 schools, and awards were presented to films from each county for Best Script, Best Acting and Best Cinematography.
Films were also shown in local movie theatres prior to the main attraction in the following counties: Calavares, Humboldt, Los Angeles, Orange, Placer, San Bernardino, Siskiyou, Solano, Sutter Yuba, and Tri-City.
In Sonoma County Directing Change DVDs were distributed to help agencies that work with youth.
Three films from Los Angeles County were shown in movie theaters across the county for three months in the summer of 2018 before the feature film to spread awareness of mental health advocacy, suicide prevention, and the Directing Change Program as part of our #TalkAboutMore campaign. An estimated 900 screens at 87 theaters showed these Directing Change films created by LA youth, resulting in an estimated 9.4 million impressions by local moviegoers.
An additional three more films were included in the #TalkAboutMore campaign, and all six Los Angeles County films were used in a digital campaign aiming to get youth to talk more about mental health and suicide prevention.
"Mean Little Thoughts," a film from Los Angeles County that won 1st place in the 2017 regional suicide prevention competition, was used in a training that all staff and teachers in Los Angeles Unified School District completed in summer 2018 on suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention – reaching around 30,000 staff that work with children across the county.
The Directing Change Team worked with staff from Solano County Behavioral Health in 2018 to customize two local films with an endslate featuring local resources for screening in local theaters and use in local trainings.


Mary is recognised Internationally, as one of Australia's leading researchers in the UFO and Contact phenomenon. She has lectured in the USA, Canada, Hawaii, UK and New Zealand. She appears regularly in national and international media news programs and in documentaries such as Australian Documentary 'OZ Files" and the BBC television program, "the "Paranormal Files" (UK.) and Discovery Channel Animal X. She has also participated in a University debate forum on this phenomenon, in 2006 at Oxford University, UK.
Vice-President of Star Kids Project Ltd. Advisory Committee member of Exopolitics : www.etworldpeace.com Organiser of Perth's First International Conference "Hidden Truth's.
Author of "Awakening: How Extraterrestrial Contact Can Transform Your Life" (2002) and the producer of the EBE award winning documentaries "Expressions of ET Contact: A Visual Blueprint?" (2000) and "Expressions of ET Contact: A Communication and Healing Blueprint?" (2004).
Mary's research records testimony from small children even younger than 2 years old, recall experiences on extraterrestrial space craft. One "eight year old" described a 'downloading' of information from the extraterrestrials, articulated by her as 'knowledge bombs', i.e. Complex data conveyed through mental images and concepts, which seem to create a 'heightened consciousness level.' Research has shown the 'Star Children' exhibit a maturity and wisdom beyond their years, awareness and connection to spiritual realms.
Mary's research shows while many "Star Children" sometimes called "Indigo's " have telepathic abilities, and are spiritually awakened and describe seeing "Beings of Light" (angels or light beings), the main difference is that "Star Children" have recollections of encounters with extraterrestrial beings and of being taken aboard extraterrestrial spaceships.
Mary's research also explores the evidence from scientific, biological, psychological, anthropological, spiritual and historical perspective to support what she believes is a 'genetic' engineering program, for 'upgrading' homo sapiens, leading to a paradigm shift in human consciousness, which these children demonstrate. Data suggests such children are being altered and transformed on many levels through extraterrestrial encounters. Mary's research includes some of the latest DNA research which could qualify how this up-grading could and may occur.

Celebrity Cameos in Music Videos: A Primer
3:20 AM PST 3/3/2011 by Jeff Sandstoe
James Van Der Beek is the latest in a long line of seasoned television and movie actors to dip a toe into the world of music videos.
Ke$ha's new video for the song "Blow" featuring former Dawson's Creek star James Van Der Beek (and unicorns!) got us thinking of other celebrities who've starred in music clips.
Courteney Cox in Bruce Springsteen's "Dancing in the Dark" (1984)
Although it was several years before Friends hit the air, a 20-year-old Courteney Cox would gain instant recognition when Bruce Springsteen pulled her out of the front row and onto the stage in the Brian De Palma-directed concert video for his Born in the U.S.A. hit, "Dancing In the Dark."
Chevy Chase in Paul Simon's "You Can Call Me Al" (1986)
The first single off of Paul Simon's seminal Graceland album featured Chevy Chase in a starring role. Mockingly lip syncing the singer until the two are dancing in unison at the end, the MTV staple was conceived in part by Saturday Night Live executive producer Lorne Michaels.
Keanu Reeves in Paula Abdul's "Rush, Rush" (1991)
George Lucas directed this video for Paula Abdul's No. 1 hit, tipping its hat to the classic film Rebel Without a Cause with Keanu Reeves in the James Dean role.
Alicia Silverstone in Aerosmith's "Cryin'" (1993)
This late-era Aerosmith video set the gold standard for celebrity cameos. Not only did it kick-start Alicia Silverstone's career (two years later, she would land the lead in Clueless), but it also promoted a repeat performance in the band's clip for "Crazy." And a video star was born. Fun fact: a young Josh Holloway (Lost) also makes an appearance in "Cryin'" as Silverstone's purse-snatcher.
Christina Ricci and Fairuza Balk in Moby's "Natural Blues" (1999)
In this eerie David Lachapelle-directed clip, Christina Ricci appears as an angel who carries away an elderly wheelchair-bound Moby from the lifelessness of a retirement home. Actress Fairuza Balk also stars as young Moby's girlfriend.
Christopher Walken in Fatboy Slim's "Weapon of Choice" (2001)
In perhaps the most impressive display of rhythm, agility and rock star-worthy sass, Academy Award-winning actor Christopher Walken stars in the brilliantly choreographed Spike Jonze-directed music video marvel, which won six MTV Music Video Awards the year of its release.
Ben Stiller in Jack Johnson's "Taylor" (2003)
Ben Stiller has directed box office smashes such as Tropic Thunder and Zoolander, but equally hilarious is this five-minute clip mocking the music video artform. Stiller directs and stars as a rude, loser-like version of himself that takes Jack Johnson's lyrics way too literally.
Katherine Heigl in Josh Kelley's "Only You" (2005)
First comes video, then comes marriage… In a true story that could only happen in Hollywood, singer-singwriter Josh Kelley picks a little known Katherine Heigl to star in the clip for his song "Only You," the two actually fall in love and get married two years later.
Zach Galifianakis in Fiona Apple's "Not About Love" (2006)
Zach Galifianakis proves he has a knack for lip-synching in this Fiona Apple clip, which finds him sharing a bed with the elusive singer.
Scarlett Johansson in Justin Timberlake's "What Goes Around… Comes Around" (2007)
This nine-minute mini-movie directed by Samuel Bayer (Nirvana's "Smella Like Teen Spirit") puts love, lust and betrayal on display as a sultry Scarlett Johansson kicks music video drama into overdrive.
Megan Fox in Eminem's "Love the Way You Lie" (2010)
In one of 2010's most disturbing and violent videos, Megan Fox plays a beaten woman as Rihanna, a real-life domestic abuse survivor, delivers the powerful chorus to complement Eminem's rage-filled rhymes: "Just gonna stand there and watch me burn/ Well that's all right because I like the way it hurts."

Raising money for charity used to be a simple task of donning running gear or getting on a bike. But today's fundraisers have to work harder than ever before to grab public attention and get people pledging.
New research from Virgin Money Giving, the UK's leading not-for-profit digital fundraising website, shows that on the back of a 12% rise in the requests for donations in the last 12 months, fundraisers are going further than ever before to encourage sponsors to part with their pennies.
The creative stakes are increasing. Last year Virgin Money Giving found that 19% more pages were set up which couldn't be categorized into the usual fundraising brackets such as an 'organised event', or a 'special occasion'. These weird, wonderful and one-of-a-kind ideas have really skyrocketed amongst fundraisers, with a rise of 218% in four years.
Bottom of the league were two retro-style baked bean baths and a one-off cat 'cuddle-athon' which smashed its fundraising target.
In true British fashion, three times as many fundraisers would rather throw themselves out of a moving plane than give up alcohol. Women were seven times more likely to shave their heads than men, although 78% of the waxing challenges were being run by men.
However, Virgin Money Giving is determined that this eyebrow-raising fund-raising should not stop here. The not-for-profit donation website and its growing legion of 'wacky warriors' are calling on fundraisers to think outside the box, and be as creative and original with their ideas to catch the attention of potential donors.
"Coming up with a creative idea was probably the easy part but sticking to it has been super tough – but I guess that's why it's called a challenge. I knew that if I was going to raise a large amount of money, then I would have to do something suitably fun, vibrant and different. Thankfully it seems to have entertained and caught the eye of lots of wonderful supporters.
We are so privileged in our job to see the brilliant ideas and super human efforts that people make to raise money. Going above and beyond to raise funds for causes close to our hearts is something we cannot encourage enough here at Virgin Money Giving; as we've seen over the last year, it really is a case of 'the more, the merrier'!

Manish Kaushik defeated star Shiva Thapa at the Indian National Elite Championships
The Indian National Boxing Championships for the elite men boxers was held in the city of Vishakapatnam where the competition delivered several big sensations. India's young promising hopes as Nanjing 2014 Youth Olympian Shyam Kumar Kakara, Manish Kaushik, Dheeraj Kumar and Naman Tanwar won their weight classes in Vishakapatnam.
The number of the boxers was 311 in the Indian National Boxing Championships which shows the big potential of the country in our sport. India achieved a sensational bronze medal in the Hamburg 2017 AIBA World Boxing Championships and their best male elite talents were successful also the Tashkent 2017 ASBC Asian Confederation Boxing Championships.
Nanjing 2014 Youth Olympian Shyam Kumar Kakara is India's best light flyweight (49kg) boxer who showed all of his potential in the National Championships. The 21-year-old talent eliminated one of his main rival, Vipin Kumar and following that success he was too strong for Lal Biak Kima in the gold medal bout.
Salman Shekh is a new face in India's boxing life who eliminated Nanjing 2014 Youth Olympian Gaurav Solanki in the preliminary stage of the competition. Following that he was able to beat national team member Laldinmawia in the final of the flyweight (52kg) while Commonwealth Games silver medallist Laishram Devendro Singh lost his preliminary bout surprisingly in Vishakapatnam.

Former ASBC Asian Champion and two-time Olympian Shiva Thapa achieved silver in the Tashkent 2017 ASBC Asian Confederation Boxing Championships but he was not able to win the title of the lightweight (60kg) in Vishakapatnam. Manish Kaushik, who had great junior and youth career previously, defeated ASBC Asian Confederation Youth Boxing Championships silver medallist Ankush Dahiya and India's star Shiva Thapa in the national events causing big sensations with his successes.
Dheeraj Kumar moved up to the light welterweight (64kg) in the recent months and he used up all of his international experiences in Vishakapatnam. He eliminated India's top teenage hope Ankit Khatana and walked over to the title against Basant Thapa. The 23-year-old boxer proved he is among India's bests and has got great potential for 2018.
India's Commonwealth Games winner and two-time Olympian veteran Manoj Kumar did enough in the final of the welterweight (69kg) against Duryodhan Singh and won his next national title. Mandeep Jangra moved up to the middleweight (75kg) and the ASBC Asian Confederation Boxing Championships silver medallist talent defeated all of his rivals including Venhlimpuia in the final.
Manish Panwar was in the Top8 at the Tashkent 2017 ASBC Asian Confederation Boxing Championships but he lost his Box-off and could not qualify for the Hamburg 2017 AIBA World Boxing Championships. The 24-year-old Indian light heavyweight (81kg) boxer eliminated Brijesh Yadav in the semi-final and walked over to the title against Neel Kamal Singh who was unable to box in the title contest.
AIBA Youth World Boxing Championships bronze medallist Naman Tanwar won his first ever national elite title after beating Varinder Kumar at the heavyweight (91kg).

Many people find themselves putting off some much needed auto repairs because they don't have a lot of extra money to work with. However, the longer you run your vehicle with some malfunctioning parts, the more likely it is that the cost of the repair will become much more by the time the issue is resolved. This is because some malfunctioning parts can put a lot of strain on other parts, which in turn increases the cost of the repair bill. To ensure that you are able to afford to get your vehicle repaired now, you will want to make use of the following suggestions.
While the used auto parts may not come with a warranty, many people have found that used parts can work just as well. Even if you have to make use of the used parts until you can later afford brand new parts, you will at least have a properly running vehicle in the meantime.
There are a few ways you can find the used parts that you need. You can locate a local junk yard like U Pull & Pay and call them to see if they have the part you need for your make and model. Some places will pull the part from the vehicles in their junk yard and have it ready for you for when you get there. Others might offer you a cheaper price if you bring your own tools and remove the part on your own.
Then there is the option of finding someone who is selling the same vehicle you have for parts. They might want the entire vehicle sold at once as a parts car, or they might be willing to let you simply purchase the one part you need if you remove it yourself.
If you are able to offer a product, merchandise, supplies, or labor in exchange for the labor that the mechanic will be performing on your vehicle, you will want to give it a try. The worst you can be told is no. However, if you have something valuable that the auto repair shop owner can really benefit from, such as drywall repair skills, you might be able to work out a deal on an even trade, or at least get a percentage of your bill knocked off.
Should you find that you are still struggling, you will want to take a few moments to talk directly to the mechanic. Ask if he or she has any further suggestions that you could make use of in order to save money while still getting your vehicle repaired.

BREAKING NEWS! Artix publishes a new video game :D
Hiya guys, Artix here. My long time friends at Hyper Awesome Entertainment created a tag team brawler video game called Dungeon Punks. Maybe you saw us streaming last week while we were all sitting on the couch trying out the game. We instantly fell in love with its old-school arcade gameplay -- which reminded us of our favorite games, like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Dungeons & Dragons, and my personal mega-favorite, Golden Axe. It is fun… and when I saw the laser shooting unicorn mounts I LOL'd. Check out the game for yourself.
AdventureQuest Worlds BONUS! "Were-Warlock"
Starting right now, when you buy Dungeon Punks on our page using Humble Bundle, you also get the exclusive Were-Warlock armor in AdventureQuest Worlds. This armor was inspired by the Were-Witch, one of the playable heroes in Dungeon Punks.
What does it mean to "Publish a game?"
Good question! You know when you load a console game and it has a few different game company logos on the front? They represent all of the people/studios who do different parts for the game. As long as you have known us, we have always done both the developing and publishing of our games. But we did not make this one. I know, at first glance from the art it looks like we did. Which is exactly why we were their first pick to be the publisher… which really means promoter when you get right down to it. Hyper Awesome Entertainment is made up of the guys who worked on Shadowtale back in the day. We have actually done a lot of things together and built up a lot of trust over the past 10+ years. Which is why I am proud to help spread word about their game and find it happy players.
Also, if this game does well there is a chance we could work together with Hyper Awesome on a game project in the AQWorlds or Dragon Fable universe. O_O Check out Dungeon Punks and see its game trailer at http://DungeonPunks.Artix.com . The game is normally $15, but we are running a 10% launch discount until the end of the month.

Maryland couple to stay in federal custody on espionage charges
Following an 18-month FBI investigation, Jonathan and Diana Toebbe are accused of passing nuclear secrets to someone they believed was working for a foreign government.

MARTINSBURG, W.Va. (CN) — A Maryland couple arrested over the weekend on charges of trying to sell classified nuclear secrets made their first appearance in federal court Tuesday.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Robert Trumble ordered Jonathan Toebbe, 42, and Diana Toebbe, 45, of Annapolis, Maryland, remanded to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service pending a hearing on the government's motion to keep them detained before trial on espionage-related charges. Trumble scheduled those hearings for 10:30 a.m. and 11 a.m. Friday morning.
The magistrate also appointed Nick Compton with the federal public defender's office as Jonathan's counsel and scheduled a preliminary hearing for Oct. 20. As of Tuesday afternoon, Diana had not been appointed an attorney.
The Toebbes are currently incarcerated at the Eastern Regional Jail and Correctional Facility in Martinsburg, West Virginia, according to federal prosecutors.
According to the criminal complaint against the couple, Jonathan, a nuclear engineer at the Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program with national security clearance, sent a package to a foreign government in April 2020 containing restricted data about the design of nuclear-powered warships.
The package allegedly contained a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, return address with a sample of the classified information and instructions on how to obtain more using covert means.
During the next 18 months, prosecutors claim Jonathan continued correspondence with a person who he thought was the foreign government's representative, but was actually an undercover FBI agent. As a "good-faith" gesture, the FBI says the agent paid Jonathan $10,000 in cryptocurrency followed by another payment of $20,000 when he and Diana, acting as a lookout, made a "dead drop" of information at a location in West Virginia.
The FBI recovered a blue memory card wrapped in plastic and placed between two slices of bread on a half of a peanut butter sandwich, court documents say. The records on the memory card included design elements and performance characteristics of Virginia-class submarine reactors.
The Justice Department describes those submarines as "cruise missile fast-attack submarines, which incorporate the latest in stealth, intelligence gathering, and weapons systems technology."
The memory card also allegedly included a typed message that said, in part: "I hope your experts are very happy with the sample provided and I understand the importance of a small exchange to grow our trust."
Afterwards, prosecutors claim the Toebbes made multiple other dead drops of restricted data in locations in eastern Virginia and around Martinsburg, West Virginia. According to court documents, the Toebbes received an additional $70,000 for those drops.
The Toebbes were arrested Saturday in West Virginia following a dead drop in Jefferson County of another SD card.
The complaint alleges violations of the Atomic Energy Act, which restricts the disclosure of information related to atomic weapons or nuclear materials.
Since 2012, Jonathan has held a top-secret security clearance specializing in naval nuclear propulsion and has worked at a government-owned laboratory in the Pittsburgh- area specializing in nuclear power for the U.S. Navy.

In our quest to eat healthier, (or I guess you could say "in the hubby's quest" – after all, I did finish off this pie today.) we have been eating a lot more salads. In this case, it's salad on top of chicken. Or salad with chicken. Whatever. It's still salad.
I have found myself enjoying these salads a lot more than I anticipated. I get tired of the plain 'ol, plain 'ol salad, but switching it up with chicken salad, fruity salad, quinoa salad, bean salad, chopped salad, etc, now I don't get tired of that. The options are seemingly endless.
For me, summer is to salad as as winter is to soup. Which basically means that my taste buds are craving them and my meal planning is full of them. I mean, what is more perfect in the summertime than a light, tasty, but completely filling and satisfying salad? They're barely any work, basically no cooking, and no pesky oven to heat up your house.
However, if I still haven't convinced you to try this salad yet, you are welcome to eat the chicken by itself. It is soo good and definitely makes this meal.
Don't skimp on the pepper. When I made it the first time, I sprinkled plenty of pepper on, and I thought it was slightly spicy for my taste buds. The second time I made it, I put less pepper on because it looked like so much, but I kind of regretted it later because it lost some of that flavor from the first time.
The key to the chicken milanese is to make sure to get the chicken breasts very thin. If you don't have a kitchen mallet, try using a rolling pin.
One more note on the paprika in the recipe. You'll notice it says "Hungarian sweet" paprika. Now, if you're like most people I know, Hungarian sweet paprika is not a staple item in your pantry. However, if you have regular paprika (I bet smoked paprika would be great in this too), it's perfectly fine to use that.
I had Hungarian sweet paprika on my grocery list last week, without really knowing what the difference was between that and the paprika I have at home. I had one of those weak moments at the grocery store when I realized that the Hungarian sweet paprika was fairly expensive (considering that I had plenty of regular paprika at home), but decided that I absolutely, positively must buy the paprika regardless.
Ps. Stay tuned next week for a great giveaway!
Slice chicken breasts in half, width/lengthwise (You should be making them skinnier, not smaller). Place on a cutting board and set a sheet of waxed paper over top. Using a kitchen mallet, pound breasts until they are 1/8-1/4 inch thick. Sprinkle breasts with salt, pepper, and paprika, evenly on both sides.
Heat oil over medium in a 12 inch skillet till shimmering. Fry 2 chicken breasts in oil for about 3 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Remove and set on a paper towel lined plate. Repeat with the remaining 2 breasts.
In a small bowl combine ingredients for vinaigrette. Whisk together.
In a large bowl, toss spinach, tomatoes, and vinaigrette. Arrange salad on top of chicken and top each salad with blue cheese and almonds.
This looks fantastic. Great picture. Thanks for sharing this one.
I agree with you salads are the best during summer! This one has all the flavors I love!
Such a yummy, fresh and simple salad with big flavor! I love it, Laura!

Bemused Backpacker Is Proud To Announce Our Partnership With Global Spirit.
Bemused Backpacker is proud to announce our new partnership with Global Spirit, the animals in tourism specialists!
Global Spirit is a specialist team who conduct animal welfare and responsible practice audits for any wildlife tour and experience around the world, helping to establish a set of minimum standards and best practices for responsible wildlife tourism that all operators and providers can work toward.
Long term readers will know that I have been a passionate advocate for responsible and ethical wildlife tourism for a long time, and this new partnership will team that global crusade with a powerful organisation and a practical way to make that change happen.
This new initiative aims to increase engagement in ethical and responsible wildlife tourism, offer new and better opportunities for the travel and tourism industry to have a positive impact on animal welfare and conservation, and encourage all wildlife attractions and operators to work towards implementing improved practices.
In short, we are no longer just advocating for responsible wildlife tourism, we are showing the wildlife tourism industry a real path to change. We are not just advocating for best practice, but stating what that best practice should be and guiding wildlife tour operators through a practical set of minimum standards of improvement.
The travel industry can be a genuinely powerful force for change, and together we can ensure that travel and tourism can have a positive impact on animal care and wildlife tourism around the world!
Stay tuned, and expect to see a lot more of our work together in the new year!

This is amazing, well done! Such an important issue to raise awareness of.
Thanks Nicola, I agree, it is.
I love all the posts you have done on raising awareness around conservation and wildlife travel, especially on some of the harder topics most people won't touch! You really are an inspiration and well done on this partnership, I am sure you will both do a lot of good together!
Thanks Alicia, we certainly are planning to!
Keep up the good work, this is amazing!
Amazing! Good job on raising awareness on this. Tourism has so much potential for helping conserve wildlife and their habitats.
It really does Amelia, thanks for the comment.
Wildlife and animal exploitation in tourism is such a complex but important issue, and there is a huge need for raising awareness and coming up with genuine solutions to the problems. I had never heard of Global Spirit before but I will now be following them with interest as well as your own work. Well done on your partnership.
Thanks Kamille, you are right it is a very complex issue, and it is one that we both hope to tackle a lot in the new year!
This is amazing! I've followed your wildlife conservation and responsible wildlife travel content from the start and I have always loved how you have been a champion for the cause. Keep up the amazing work and good luck in this new partnership!
Thanks Alice, I appreciate the support!
