Uthoff, Graeber, Bobinette & BlankeAttorneys At Law
Charles W. Bobinette
It is with heavy hearts that we inform you that Charles "Chuck" Whitney Bobinette, beloved husband, devoted friend, Attorney at Law and former St. Louis City Municipal Court Judge, passed away on Monday July 25, 2016.
With characteristic enthusiasm and tenacity, Chuck continued in his mission of serving his clients all the way through June 2016 when the effects of chemotherapy and the cancer itself became physically overpowering. At the end, he was surrounded by his wife Deborah, his loving family, coworkers and close friends.
Chuck was an extraordinary attorney who brought joy and insight to all who knew him.
Up until his last moments, Chuck was positive about life, and continued to display concern for family and friends, groups of which he considered his clients to be members. While ill, he staffed cases with other attorneys in the Firm to ensure his clients received the best representation possible.
Chuck was an inspiration to us all at Uthoff, Graber, Bobinette and Blanke.
Chuck moved from his hometown of Chicago to attend Denison University in Ohio, then Saint Louis University School of Law, where he earned his Juris Doctor degree in 1971. Chuck first practiced as a managing attorney for the Legal Aid Society of St. Louis, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing free quality legal assistance to low-income families. It strives to strengthen families, build the community, and secure justice for disadvantaged clients. Since 1981 Chuck practiced as a partner at this Firm, where his civil trial and appellate practice focused on employment and business litigation, as well as in areas of personal injury and workers' compensation. He utilized his legal expertise and passion for zealous representation to assist countless people in venues including both the Missouri Supreme Court and U.S. Supreme Court.
While practicing, Chuck served as an adjunct Professor at Saint Louis University School of Law and later as an Adjunct Professor and Judicial Clerkship leader at Washington University School of Law. His civic work included board service as Secretary of the City of St. Louis CASA. He was also dedicated to the Crusade Against Crime which awards its Medal of Valor in recognition of conspicuous acts of bravery exceeding the normal demands of police service. Chuck served as a Crusade's board member for 28 years and as its president from 1998-2002.
Notwithstanding Chuck's legal and civic successes, he will be best remembered as a treasured friend and family man. He was beloved most by his wife Deborah (nee Lord). Together the two shared 40 years of partnership as best friends.
We are committed to honoring Chuck's legacy.
Chuck was a zealous advocate who worked tirelessly on his clients' behalf. For his entire legal career, Chuck worked virtually 10 hours per day, and 6 or 7 days per week. He left no stone unturned when briefing or presenting his clients' cases. All the time, Chuck was well regarded for his integrity, professionalism and candor with Judges, opposing counsel – and his clients. These characteristics coupled with his legal knowledge gained from education and decades of experience resulted in significant success for him and his clients.
Chuck will be sorely missed.
As our firm moves forward without Chuck, we pledge to deliver legal services of the highest standard and in the positive spirit exemplified by our friend and colleague, Charles Bobinette.

Introduction to Canadian Law and Society
Vancouver is the largest city in the province of British Columbia, and serves as Canada's main gateway to Asia.
Welcome to Introduction to Canadian Law and Society, a five-day, online program that aims to introduce students to the Canadian legal system, showcase the rich history of First Nations in British Columbia, and explore Western Arts and other facets of Canada's dynamic west coast culture and society. Participants can expect to enhance their English abilities, reinforce their understanding of the law-making process in Canada and gain valuable cross-cultural insights and skills.
We would of course prefer to be hosting you in person, as we have had the privilege of doing with Professor Matsuda and previous cohorts of Kagoshima law students since 2014, and be able to offer you the full experience of our campus, city, and way of life. But while circumstances beyond our control conspire to keep us apart physically, we hope that our program, delivered through a diverse roster of content area experts, provides you with a well-rounded, engaging and stimulating window into law and society on this side of the Pacific.
Happy learning from us at the Centre for Asia-Pacific Initiatives (CAPI),
Victor V. Ramraj
Director and Chair in Asia-Pacific Legal Relations

1. Indigenous law: an introduction
Indigenous law: an introduction This video provides an introductory discussion about Indigenous law, including different interpretations about what the term means, and why it is important to understand legal pluralism and to learn about Indigenous laws. This work matters in both communities and in education, and matters to both Indigenous peoples and settlers. Indigenous legal traditions are vital resources and this video offers a critically oriented discussion that aims to support agency and self-determination within Indigenous communities, to encourage non-Indigenous people to consider their own actions and responsibilities, and to open up ideas for discussion and contemplation. People interviewed in this video include: Val Napoleon, Jeff Corntassel, John Borrows, Rebecca Johnson, Doug White, and Anisa White. Keywords: defining Indigenous law; understanding the concept of "law"; drawing on Indigenous laws; inclusivity & law; relationship between Indigenous & Canadian law; stories. This video was created as part of the Indigenous Law Video On Demand project, for the Indigenous Law Research Unit (ILRU) in the Faculty of Law, University of Victoria. The project included Indigenous and non-Indigenous people in collaboration and conversation. For further information about the project, as well as free access to a discussion guide that accompanies the videos, go to http://www.uvic.ca/law/about/indigenous/indigenouslawresearchunit/ © Indigenous Law Research Unit, 2015

About the Centre for Asia-Pacific Initiatives (CAPI)
CAPI was front and centre on November 5th, 1999, when UVic conferred the Degree of Honorary Doctor of Science upon His Majesty King Bhumipol Adulyadej of Thailand at Chitralada Royal Villa in Bangkok "for his service to the Thai people and his standing in the wider global community as a Head of State respected for his integrity, his appreciation of education and his record of service in the public interest."
Over 30 years of Bridging the Pacific
Since its founding in 1988 on the westernmost edge of Canada, the Centre for Asia-Pacific Initiatives (or "CAPI," as it is affectionately known) at the University of Victoria has been involved with the Asia-Pacific through an active program of policy research and engagement with universities and civil society organizations across the region. The longest-running research Centre at the university, we hold international conferences and events, facilitate student and scholarly exchanges, and generally act as a resource facility for the university and the wider community on this important and diverse part of the world (read more about CAPI's history).
Japan in focus
Japan has been a particular focus of the Centre since its establishment around a core of three permanent research chairs, including one dedicated to the study of Japanese and east Asian business relations - we are excited to have been joined by Dr. Endo Takahiro (previously of Hitotsubashi University) as our new Japan Chair in the summer of 2021. Recent notable Japan-related programming at CAPI has included hosting a major international academic conference in 2018 on "The Nonhuman in Japanese Culture and Society: Spirits, Animals, Technology," an evening of Noh Theatre, several Japanese tea ceremony demonstrations (cha-no-yu), various Japanese movies at the annual Victoria Film Festival, and the 2019 annual conference of the Canadian Association for Japanese Language Education. As part of the Centre's international student internship program, CAPI has sent ten UVic students to Japan for four-month work placements with CITYNET Yokohama over the past five years. Finally, for the last seven years, CAPI has served as the headquarters of the national Landscapes of Injustice project, whose team has been examining the forced dispossession of Japanese Canadians during the Second World War.
Description: Former CAPI Japan Chair Joseph Kess upon receipt of Japan's Order of the Rising Sun - the highest honour bestowed by Japan on foreign nationals - in Vancouver on December 10th, 2008, for his "contributions to greater understanding of Japan [which] have come through all facets of his professional career. His landmark books on Japanese psycholinguistics, his acknowledged excellence as a teacher and his leadership at the Centre for Asia-Pacifc Initiatives at the University of Victoria stand out among his many accomplishments that have served to increase awareness and knowledge about Japan in Canada."

Description: CAPI Visiting Faculty Scholar Cody Poulton (UVic Pacifc and Asian Studies) brought a three-day conference, "The Nonhuman in Japanese Culture and Society: Spirits, Animals, Technology," to life with CAPI in September 2018. Above, he and distinguished Japanese-German author Yoko Tawada perform a bilingual reading from her book "Memoirs of a Polar Bear."
Description: Larry Kominz and students of Portland State University perform The Mountain Wizard and the Crab, a kyōgen play, as part of an evening of Japanese theatre presented during the conference.
Description: CAPI is home to "Landscapes of Injustice," a research and public history project exploring the dispossession of Japanese Canadians as part of their forced displacement and internment in the 1940s. The project has drawn heavily from the Japanese Canadian community, members of whom have served in both an advisory capacity and as rich sources of testimony and research material through their personal stories and documents. Here, Sam Yamamoto, Mary Kitagawa, and Jean Kamimura relate first-hand experiences of their internment in the 1940s during a Landscapes event at the Vancouver Public Library, January 2017.
Description: Dean Matsuda and Kagoshima students visiting CAPI in 2018
Description: In September 2019, CAPI hosted mother-daughter duo Hisa and Hikaru Uzawa on campus for a Noh performance: "One of the first women to act as a lead performer in a traditional Noh lineage, Hisa Uzawa is a prominent member of the Tessenkai branch of the Kanze School of Noh theatre in Tokyo. She has been designated as a 'Living National Treasure' by the Japanese government."
Description: In October 2004, CAPI hosted the Japan Studies Association of Canada (JSAC) annual meeting, which coincided with the 75th anniversary of the establishment of a diplomatic presence for Canada in Japan, as well as the 100th anniversary of Canada establishing a trade commission in Japan. The keynote talk was delivered by H.E. Robert G. Wright, Canadian Ambassador to Japan, and the conference proceedings were published in a printed volume (above) edited by CAPI Japan Chair Joseph Kess and CAPI Associate Director Helen Lansdowne.
About Victoria and the west coast of Canada
Victoria is the capital city of the Canadian province of British Columbia, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island off Canada's Pacific coast (Google Map). Greater Victoria has a population of 367,770 people. The region's Coast Salish First Nations peoples established communities in the area long before British settlement began in 1843. Victoria's Chinatown, which dates back to the 1850s, is the second oldest in North America after San Francisco's.
Known as "The Garden City," Victoria is a popular tourism destination with a large civil service workforce and a technology sector that has risen to be its largest revenue-generating private industry. Victoria is consistently rated among the top cities in the world for its quality-of-life. Contributing to its increasingly cosmopolitan character, the city has a large non-local student population, who come to attend the University Of Victoria, Camosun College, and other highly-regarded educational institutions. The city and surrounding area is known for its natural beauty, temperate climate, and relaxed pace of life.
Everything is Connected
Everything is connected. What each of us does has a profound impact on every living creature. Our health and wholeness is written upon the land and dependent on each other. We support Indigenous communities and businesses who are open or are planning to receive visitors. We respect those who remain closed. We honour Indigenous languages and speakers for holding the knowledge of this beautiful land and a blueprint for balance and wellness upon it. We invite you to reflect on these precious resources as you take a video journey across Indigenous lands in British Columbia. We will sit together in beauty again.

Dr. Justine Semmens
PhD, University of Victoria Department of History
Justine Semmens has a PhD in history from the University of Victoria. Teaching in CAPI's Introduction to Canadian Law and Society Program is important to her because building opportunities for cross-cultural exchange, knowledge, and connection is a vital component of twenty-first century post secondary instruction and learning. In addition to teaching history, Justine is also a learning strategist, humanities tutor, and matching facilitator with UVic's Learning Assistance Program and is an Associate Fellow at the Centre for Studies in Religion and Society.
My pedagogical philosophy is grounded in a commitment to inquiry-based learning and an accessibility framework which encourages inquisitiveness and an engaged approach to problem solving. History consists of the stories that we tell about the past. It reflects not only the values and perspectives of the people who we study, but also reflects the evolving vantage points and methods of interrogation of the historians who write this history. It is important that my students come away with an appreciation of these rich relationships between the past and the present.

A brief summary and comparisons of LTE technology along with other important information to consider for private network applications.
The future depends on connectivity - connecting the unconnected and delivering data from Point A to Point B faster and more efficiently. During the past two decades, we have seen one of the greatest technological evolutions beginning with dial-up, EDGE and then progressing to WiMAX and LTE. We are now at step four of this path.
All wireless networks are in one of three major categories: Public Safety, Commercial and Private. Each has its own challenges, limitations and complexities. Regardless of purpose, all facilitate voice, video and data communications between people, devices or a combination of both.
Long Term Evolution (LTE) is one of the most advanced wireless systems and technologies currently available. It is, inherently, more complex to design, deploy and maintain. Based on some of the challenges of WiMAX, we need to consider if LTE is an acceptable platform for private networks. It requires a different skill set and knowledge than is currently being utilized by technicians and engineers familiar with WiFi and Legacy wireless networks. In addition, the spectrum availability must be considered at early stages of the project exploration. However, this will be the subject of discussion for another paper.
Feature: AxxceLTE™ Represents a Complete Broadband Access Solution.
Benefit: This eliminates the need to integrate 3rd party devices to achieve a carrier-grade access network. As a result, there is a dramatic reduction in system cost, complexity, learning cycle and operating expense.
Benefit: AxxceLTE is available as a compact all-outdoor eNodeB and 1U rack mount EPC, resulting in minimal vertical real estate, smaller rack mountable space and lower power consumption.
Feature: EPC Hosted on COTS Platform.
Benefit: This platform is commonly used in server applications with widely available, off-the-shelf components.
4. Feature: AxxceLTE Employs an IP-based Aggregation Network.
Benefit: AxxceLTE is based on traditional IPv4/IPv6 network protocol and architecture which is familiar to IT professionals.
5. Feature: Billing Functionality is Supported via the Ubiquitous RADIUS Protocol.
Benefit: This reduces the need for a specialized and purpose-built billing/ERP system. Authentication, authorization and accounting functions can be integrated with the most open source and off-the-shelf systems via RADIUS server.
Feature: Intuitive Management Tools for eNB and EPC Using SNMP for Remote Management Access.
Benefit: This reduces the learning curve to adapt to AxxceLTE and offers individual customization via SNMP. This ensures that the system can be adjusted to specific needs of every Axxcelera customer.
Benefit: Capital investment scales with system coverage and capacity. AxxceLTE offers affordable, initial deployment options with a high degree of scalability, and organically supports a pay-as-you-grow model.

Even though the economy is running extremely rough right now, we are still lucky because the internet has opened up so many new income generating possibilities. The sad thing is that so many people are unfamiliar with the various ways of making money online and many people, who simply don't know any better, will dismiss internet income opportunities as scams.
While it's true there are scams online, and off, it's also true that you can make real money online and one of the best ways for a beginner to make money online is starting to blog for money.
A blog is simply an online journal, the name comes from the words web log, blog. You can start a blog for free and learning how to set up your blog is very easy to do even if you don't know anything about computers or websites. Most people will learn all they need to know in a few hours. You can pick various themes and there are several things you can add to your blog that will help you monetize it.
Google Adsense is a process where you allow Google to place ads on your blog, ads that are related to the topic of your blog, when someone clicks on one of the ads you will earn a commission. With adsense the amount you make per click can vary dramatically based on the popularity (and thus the amount of money advertisers are willing to spend to place the ad) of a certain topic. The more popular the niche you're in, the more advertisers will spend on the ads and the more you'll make when someone clicks on those ads.
Don.'t let the ignorance of others scare you off of learning how to blog for money. Sure, it's true that there are a lot of scams online, just like there are anywhere else if you're not careful, but the reality is that if you're willing to invest some time to learn some simple skills you can turn your hobby into an income... maybe even a full time income.

Controversial wind farm plan is rejected
Credit: Leighton Buzzard Observer | 20 March 2013 | www.leightonbuzzardonline.co.uk ~~
Protesters campaigning against a planned wind farm are celebrating this afternoon after the scheme was rejected by Aylesbury Vale District Council.
Their 15-month battle to halt the controversial development at Dorcas Lane, near Stoke Hammond, came to a head today when the council's strategic development control committee voted 6-3 against the plans by Force 9 Energy after several hours of debate.
Council officers had spent months researching the effects that four gigantic wind turbines would have on the countryside and people living around the site, and had recommended that the application be rejected.
The scheme has caused a storm of protest in villages that overlook the fields earmarked for the development.

Voters' attention on economy
By David Olinger | dolinger@denverpost.com |
At a rally in a Nevada middle school, Hillary Rodham Clinton asked whether anyone knew somebody in danger of losing their home.
Nearly everyone in a crowd of 5,000 raised a hand.
In her graduate-school classes at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas, Dina Titus sees students with part-time jobs who already face their first home foreclosure. Subprime lenders were giving out 120 percent loans so they could buy a house without a down payment "and go out and buy some furniture," she said.
"Now, their interest rates are about to pop up," she said, "and they don't know how they're going to make the payments. The value's gone down. Nothing's moving. People are just walking away from their houses."
Across the United States, a troubled economy is eclipsing the war in Iraq as the top issue on voters' minds. Presidential candidates on both sides of the aisle have started to talk about America's economy but have provided few specifics on the crisis at its roots.
"Republicans Mitt Romney, John McCain and Mike Huckabee are mostly mum" on the nation's housing troubles, a Forbes magazine column observed, while the Democrats "have proposed individual plans, though many are short on details."
The mortgage crisis
The subprime-lending crisis has been particularly painful in fast-growing Western states, where homebuyers stretched their limits as prices escalated.
For much of 2006, Colorado had the nation's highest foreclosure rate. That distinction has moved to Nevada, even though Colorado foreclosures grew again in 2007. In November, one in every 152 households in Nevada faced foreclosure proceedings, according to RealtyTrac, a California company that provides foreclosure listings.
In Colorado, the state Division of Housing says about 36,000 homes were foreclosed last year — 8,000 more than the previous record, set in 2006.
At a neighborhood meeting on foreclosures Saturday, Colorado Division of Housing Director Kathi Williams said foreclosure notices went to one of every 43 Denver households in the first nine months of 2007. When houses sit vacant, "everyone's property value begins to go into the toilet," she said.
Williams said she wishes presidential candidates were talking less about bailouts and more about foreclosure counseling, renegotiating loans, regulating mortgage brokers and creating a loan disclosure that really tells people what an adjustable-rate mortgage could cost.
Creating big pots of foreclosure-assistance funds "isn't going to work," she said, if lenders and borrowers get rewarded for bad decisions. "It doesn't help them reach reality."
Democrats' focus
Many Nevada foreclosures afflicted investors who made bad bets on future Las Vegas house prices. Others came to homeowners who soon discovered their houses were worth much less than they paid for them.
In one year, home prices plunged 11 percent in Las Vegas, according to a recent survey. So did home prices in Phoenix, the largest city in the Rocky Mountain region.
Before the Nevada caucuses, Democratic presidential candidates met with homeowners facing foreclosure and blamed the Bush administration for the subprime-lending crisis.
Clinton, who won a narrow victory in Nevada, has called for a voluntary short-term moratorium on foreclosures and a five-year freeze in sub prime-mortgage interest rates to help the national economy recover. She also proposes a $30 billion fund to help communities and homeowners afflicted by foreclosures.
"It is indisputable that brokers and mortgage companies lured families into mortgages that were designed to end in foreclosure," she said in response to a Denver Post questionnaire.
Her main Democratic rival, Barack Obama, responded that "the implosion of the sub prime-lending industry threatens to bring foreclosures to over 2 million households, including many families with children."
He called for a $10 billion foreclosure-prevention fund that could help families facing foreclosure refinance their mortgages or waive taxes and costs associated with a home sale "if you've been tricked or persuaded into buying a home that's simply too expensive."
GOP looks at taxes
Republican candidates have talked less about predatory lending and more about tax cuts as a path to economic recovery. Most also favor an immediate infusion of federal cash into taxpayers' pockets to cut the risk of an election-year recession.
"My plan to strengthen the economy is the largest tax cut in American history, saving families thousands of dollars a year," Rudy Giuliani said.
Huckabee's economic plan calls for a drastic change in the federal tax system. He favors replacing the federal income-tax system with a national sales tax — he calls it the "fair tax" — a change he contends will help middle-income families and increase exports of American-made products.
McCain advocates abolishing the alternative minimum tax, cutting corporate tax rates and making it harder for Congress to increase taxes.
"I will not let the Democrats roll back the Bush tax cuts," he said. "I believe we should protect the American family against partisan tax increases by requiring a three-fifths majority in Congress to raise taxes."
Romney calls for a $233 billion tax cut for businesses and individuals that would include lowering the corporate income, capital-gains and interest and dividend taxes. He also favors more foreclosure counseling and a larger role for the Federal Housing Administration in the mortgage business.
Mike Rosser, a member of the state housing board in Colorado who is co-chairman of its foreclosure task force, said he has heard little from any candidate except Clinton about the housing crisis, and he disagrees with her moratorium proposal.
"It's a very bad idea," he said. "It just prolongs the problem. The longer things stay in the sun, the riper they get."

Specific National City Court

This is important because the only way an attorney can fully understand a certain courts expectations and procedure is to have experience at that particular court. It is very important that when one hires a criminal defense attorney that they make sure that they are familiar with the specific court that the case will be handled in. It is a common misconception that a court room is a court room, that they are all the same. This is not true, sure courts all follow the same laws and have the same basic set up. However, there are some differences, an example would be the certain type of legal briefs a Judge or court will accept. It may seem like a trivial thing but an attorney not from the National City area may get hung up and delayed with these little nuances, this could have an adverse effect on the client. The Courthouse has a lot of different departments. This may seem like a given but for a criminal defense attorney not connected to the National City area, this can add a lot of confusion because there are multiple offices and departments where filling must occur.

This is because each judge has a certain kind of procedure that they expect in their court room.

This can take an attorney time to figure out and be fully on point for their client.

As all know, the case will be in front of a jury of their peers. It is important that one's criminal defense attorney can not only build a relationship with those who work at the court but the people that will hear their client's case. The only way an attorney can do this is to have a great knowledge of the area and the culture. One cannot expect a criminal defense lawyer from Los Angeles to have a connection with those in National City because the communities are very different. You need an attorney that can connect with the jury. Mr. Monder can connect with the jury with little effort because he is from the area and has a great amount of experience with the area. It is a great benefit to have relationships with those in the area, which Attorney Monder has.

Aside from the daily ups and downs of Oakland A's baseball, it's been a long, lonely summer for our TiVo. Without new shows each week from any of the networks, we resorted to the occasional late night show from Conan O'Brien or Jon Stewart, and took a liking to the syndicated Arli$$ from ESPN Classic, but can't say we've been satiated without the standard fare from Law & Order, CSI, 24 and the rest.
Now that September is upon us, the fall season premieres are just beginning to debut and give us hope. After some dark days which had seen us whittle our TiVo WatchList to less than one screen (TiVo owners know what I mean), we should soon be arriving home each day to new fares, and hopefully soon get to struggle not with finding anything to watch, but to instead, pick which show to watch. My wife and I had a conversation of that type just yesterday when we got home.
"What do you want to see when we get home," she asked. "Arli$$ or House?" "Both!" I answered.
So we did - somehow trying to get used to a kinder, gentler House who no longer finds himself addicted to painkillers and a cane following last season's dramatic conclusion which had him shot and on his deathbed. Arli$$ on the other hand was up to his usual tricks, and doesn't seem any better for it.
With the new season upon us, I grow wistful of those who may never grace our screens again - the West Wings and Convictions of the world who some mucky-muck decided had either run their course or never were to be allowed to forge one. But somehow, I think we'll push through and become acceptable TV viewers again, as we did before when we lost NYPD Blue, or even further back, when The Cosby Show and Family Ties said their farewells. Instead, we look to the future and welcome back War At Home, welcome back Jack Bauer and Gil Grissom and the crew as they go about their business. And our TiVo will once again love us back.

The image of Aylan Kurdi exposes the horror, but will anything change?
The image of the lifeless body of the three-year-old Aylan Kurdi, washed up on a beach has caused an international outcry, but will it change anything?
Joyce Karam
Published: 03 September ,2015: 12:00 AM GST Updated: 04 September ,2015: 12:20 AM GST
The jarring images of the body of the three-year-old Syrian boy washed up on the shores of Bodrum is the latest tragedy revealed from Syria. But irrespective of the horror it exposes, the hashtags and condemnations that have followed this death, similar to the 200,000 before, will not trigger action to end Syria's suffering for the simple fact that Syrian lives don't matter to those who can save them.
The Syrian toddler identified as Aylan Kurdi was dressed in his best outfit. His red shirt, navy blue shorts and tiny velcro sneakers were meant to ease his passage to a better world. A world with no barrel bombs, tyrants, or butchers suffocating the future of a generation of Syrians. His family took to the sea to flee to Europe where perhaps they can be resettled as refugees, and they can have the basic right of living.
Syria's curse
The death of Aylan Kurdi, those before him in Douma, Homs, Daraa, Aleppo and across Syria have not mattered enough for the international community to act and put an end to Syria's tragic sequel. Those lives did not matter in 2011 when they were shot at by the Assad regime, nor in 2012 when Jihadists started infiltrating the Syrian rebels. They also did not matter in 2013 when the Assad regime used chemical weapons in Ghouta, nor in 2014 with the reemergence of ISIS. For four long years, Syria has been a geopolitical chess game at the United Nations Security Council, where Russia exercises the veto to embarrass the United States, and where four General Assembly meetings have failed to even address the refugee population.
Statements of condemnation are little consolation for Syrian families digging up their toddlers from the rubble in Douma and refugees stranded by Europe's barbed wire fences
Four million refugees and a quarter of a million deaths later, the debate on the global stage is only about adjusting, containing and pulling some internal strings in Syria. The fragmentation of the country, the death of a nation and its people are not significant enough for the international community to act and stop the suffering. Beyond counterterrorism strategies and convenient promises of a political settlement, the deaths of Syrians has become just another headline that we look over and condemn casually.
Perhaps the late Fouad Ajami was right in 2012, saying on CNN that Syria's curse is in having "only olive oil" (and not oil refineries). Ajami was contrasting the case of Syria with Kuwait, Iraq and Libya, the three rich oil countries where the U.S. intervened in 1990, 2003 and 2011. For the Obama administration in particular, Syria was never anything more than a "long war of attrition" as one former U.S. official told me countlessly, and that will sort itself out while the humanitarian catastrophe continues.
Counterterrorism matters
Counterterrorism has morphed as the central part of the U.S. strategy in Syria. The U.S. priority is for bombing ISIS from air, or through a new secret campaign of drones, and to arm the rebels who can exclusively battle the extremist group. All of this while navigating the corridors of the proxy war and balancing Turkish, Russian, Iranian and Arab interests. For Moscow, Syria has been an opportunity to challenge the U.S. by supporting Assad and vetoing any U.N. resolutions that threaten his power, and most recently ramping up its presence in places like Tartous and Latakia.
Early in the conflict, former U.S. officials such as Anne Marie Slaughter and Frederick Hof spoke in favor of establishing a no fly zone in Syria in 2012 for humanitarian purposes, before ISIS and the designation of Jabhat Nusra. Their voices, however, were drowned out inside the administration in favor of a hands off approach. In 2012 as well and according to regional diplomats, Turkey and key Arab allies including Jordan, UAE and Saudi Arabia relayed directly to the White House their concern that doing nothing in Syria would exacerbate the humanitarian catastrophe and help the surge of the extremists. The U.S. drag its feet, and three years later, the Syrian tragedy is almost a self-fulfilling prophecy.
The international community, beyond the official condemnations, and the hashtag campaigns has nearly adjusted to the suffering in Syria. Whether ISIS destroys the Palmyra temple, rapes and enslaves women, minorities and children, or whether Assad will commit another massacre, the political calculus on Syrian lives has not changed. Instead, the UNSC would call for an emergency meeting, Russia would reiterate its intention to reach a political solution, the Arab league would promise more aid and Iran would condemn the Takfiris. But when it comes to tangible steps to save lives and end the tragedy, the Syrian policy debate sounds more like a reverberating echo chamber.
Statements of condemnation are little consolation for Syrian families digging up their toddlers from the rubble in Douma and refugees stranded by Europe's barbed wire fences. At least with Aylan Kurdi, the media has a name and an image to magnify, while thousands others who died in Syria remain anonymous.

Caribbean Sports Roundup
NAN Sports Editor
NY, Weds. Nov. 27, 2019:
Here are the top headlines making news on the
Caribbean sports scene this week.
Soccer Corruption Roots Lead To The BVI?
soccer's governing body has called on law enforcement agencies to investigate
its former president, Hryhoriy Surkis, who is now a lawmaker, on suspicion of
embezzling up to 380 million euros.
report in the Der Spiegel magazine claimed that UEFA discovered it had been
paying the money to Newport Management Limited, a company registered in the
British Virgin Islands in 2016.
a Facebook post over the past weekend, the UAF said it had asked the State
Bureau of Investigations, the Prosecutor-General's Office, and the Interior
Ministry to investigate whether any of the 380 million euros in payments that
UEFA, European soccer's governing body, earmarked for the UAF and certain
soccer teams between 1999 and 2016 had been misappropriated.
In Cricket
Caribbean-born,
English cricketer Jofra Archer this week made global headlines by claiming he
was racially abused by a member of the crowd as England lost the first Test to
New Zealand by an innings and 65 runs.
authorities in New Zealand believe they may have identified the individual who
is thought to have shouted racial abuse at Archer.
Barbados-born Archer, the England fast bowler, said he heard the abuse after he
was dismissed in England's second innings at the Bay Oval. He reported the
comments to stewards and team security at the time.
authorities continue to scan CCTV footage and have appealed for other
spectators to come forward with more information, it is understood by ESPN that
someone believed to be the culprit later contacted Archer by direct message on
Instagram. As a result, authorities are confident of being able to identify

Q: How to save space and time with a mirrored NxN array Let's say I have an N x N array of numbers, with the property that the [ i ][ j ] number is always equal to the [ j ][ i ] number. Ie:
[ 0 3 9 2 ]
[ 3 0 5 6 ]
[ 9 5 0 1 ]
[ 2 6 1 0 ]

Is there a representation I can use to save space and time in accessing elements? It would cut the array size in half, and if possible, reduce the cache miss penalty by indexing [ i ][ j ] and [ j ][ i ] to the same location in memory.

A: You can enumerate the elements in a one dimensional array like this:
01234  (n=5)
 5678
  901
   23
    4

The position in the array is (n + (n-y+1))*y/2 + (x-y).
If x<y then swap the two coordinates.

A: Just using a one dimensional array, you should save space, and there might be some slight change in access time, though whether it is faster or not, it probably depends on the compiler and the language.
I wrote this solution quickly in Qt, but it should be simple to convert it to stl c++ or some other language:
#include <QVector>
#include <QDebug>
#include <QString>

class MirroredArray
{
public:
    MirroredArray(int sideLength)
    {
        values.fill(0, sideLength*(sideLength+1)/2);
        this->s = sideLength;
    }

    int get(int r, int c)
    {
        if(c > r)
        {
          return values.at(s*r-(r-1)*r/2 + c-r);
        }
        else
        {
          return values.at(s*c-(c-1)*c/2 + r-c);
        }
    }

    void set(int r, int c, int value)
    {
        if(c > r)
        {
          values[s*r-(r-1)*r/2 + c-r] = value;
        }
        else
        {
          values[s*c-(c-1)*c/2 + r-c] = value;
        }
    }
    int getSide()
    {
        return s;
    }

    QString contentsToString()
    {
        QString temp = "(" + QString::number(values.size()) + ") - ";
        for(int i = 0; i<values.size(); i++)
          temp += QString::number(i) + ", ";
        return temp;
    }

private:
    QVector <int> values;
    int s;
};

Note: This code doesn't do any error checking that you are passing in a valid row and column value.

Sara Wiles photos on display at Intertribal Center
Photographs and essays by Lander photographer Sara Wiles are on display in the Central Wyoming College Intertribal Education and Community Center October 17 through November 30.
The exhibit is called "Sara Wiles' Arapaho Journey: Sharing Memories, Creating Kinship."
The images selected for the exhibit best reveal the relationships Wiles developed while photographing Arapaho people who became her friends and family, said Cory Daly, the chair of CWC's Diversity Committee. Two Arapaho words are interwoven into the exhibit: "Ni'iihi," which means "In a Good Way," and "Neito'eino," which means "we are all related," Daly explained.
On Tuesday, October 18, the community is invited to a reception, entitled "In a Good Way: Celebrating Sara Wiles' Arapaho Journeys," at 5:30 p.m. at the Intertribal Center's Miller Community Hall.
Wiles has been working on the Wind River Indian Reservation since 1973, first as a student of anthropology and a consultant for language and culture projects.
Wiles began taking photographs, first to document social service programs, and later as a way to express her intense fascination with Arapaho people and their lives. In 2004, after shooting images for more than 30 years, she began writing stories to accompany the photographs, which has resulted in a book of photographs and essays entitled "Arapaho Journeys." The book was published in the summer of 2011. The book documents the history of the Northern Arapaho people as well as the stories of individuals' lives and contemporary events, and reflects her close ties to the community. Wiles will sign copies of the book during the reception Oct. 18.
Although she is widely known for her work on the Wind River Reservation, she had also exhibited photos from a wide variety of other life experiences, including travel in Latin America and around the western United States, as well as photographs from Ripley County, Indiana where she was raised.
The exhibit is open to the public during regular college business hours.

Bullied at school and tormented for years about his severe speech disability, Paul Allman was unable to say even his own name.
As a youngster he fell behind at in lessons and out of them he struggled to lead a normal life due to his stammer.
The speech condition led to almost 40 years of anguish for Paul. But now he has opened up about the struggles he has faced in life and how he overcame his biggest fear - talking.
The 46-year-old, of Gateshead, said: "It got to a point where I would not answer the phone or not speak to anybody out of embarrassment. I could not even say my own name.
"I used to struggle at school when teachers would go around the classroom asking you to read from a book.
"I got bullied for having a stammer and I could not do normal things, such as ask a bus driver for a ticket.
"I would have to write down where I was going out of embarrassment so the people could not hear me talking.
But things are looking a lot brighter for Paul these days.
With the help of the McGuire Programme, a course which helps people overcome their speech difficulties, he is now able to get on with his life.
He has started a successful pest control business and is looking to the future with girlfriend Angela Ballatyne.
"The McGuire programme built my confidence up so much and I'm proud of what I've achieved. It has given me a new lease of life.
"All through my life I became withdrawn. I didn't like to go out and socialise and I always had an excuse.
"Now I can have a life and start living it the way I want to and not hide behind this black cloak any more.
Through his business, Problem Solved Pest Control, Paul has also discovered a different side to life.
He is now actively arranging meetings and conference calls with clients, something he would never have dreamt of just a couple of years ago.
Paul said: "Over the years the countryside has been my passion and my love in life.
"I helped out at a local shoot in Morpeth, Northumberland and my passion grew for pest control so I worked in the industry gaining experience.
"Sadly my auntie passed away with cancer and I was left in the will.
"One year on I'm now running my own business which is growing steadily with some fantastic client reviews.
"I enjoy speaking to new clients and I attend business meetings. The whole experience has changed the way I look at life.
The McGuire Programme is a unique therapy approach for people who stammer or stutter.
It was founded by Dave McGuire, an American, in 1994 and regular meetings now take place across the UK.
Iain Mutch, regional director for UK North, said: "Everyone involved in the programme, at whatever level, is a person who has experienced stuttering themselves and, at some point, decided enough was enough and did something about it.
"I went on my first course in Bournemouth in September 2000. The first step is to apply for and attend a first intensive course.
Students like Paul stay in a hotel where the course is run from Wednesday evening until Sunday afternoon, working long hours.
"The courses are very practical and address the physical and psychological aspects of a stammer," added Iain. "Work in the hotel conference room is taken outside into the real world and practiced on the streets of the city where the course is held.
"The courses are suitable for adults and also for highly motivated teenagers who stammer.
Every year a course is run the Royal Station Hotel in Newcastle, with the next one planned from March 11-15.
There is also an annual staff training weekend taking place this Friday to Sunday.
Overcoming a disability is no easy feat but, like Paul, others are doing their all to better their lives.
Two tenants from Durham housing provider, Derwentside Homes, are on course for brighter futures after overcoming serious medical conditions and retraining for new careers.
Lynne Stafford and Sara Monaghan have both enrolled on NVQ Level Two courses in business administration after accessing education opportunities through the association's Brighter Futures programme.
The pair were both employed before illness put them out of work for several years.
Now they are looking forward to a new lease of life thanks to the courses which have equipped them with essential new skills.
Lynne, 47, from Stanley, is married with four children and worked in retail for almost three decades.
But in 2009, she was diagnosed with Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD), which restricts blood supply around the body.
After having a seizure, she scratched her foot and contracted septicaemia which required an above the knee amputation to get rid of the life-threatening infection.
She said: "After losing my leg a lot of people thought I couldn't go back to work or go to college to learn new things.
"I was devastated at the time, and housebound for four weeks afterwards, but after a while I realised this is just another challenge I had to overcome.
"The Brighter Futures programme has given me a new perspective on life and I'd like to see where it goes.
Sara, 29, from Blackhill in Consett, had been unemployed for five years after doctors diagnosed her with fibromyalgia.
She worked in sales at a computer repair shop prior to the diagnosis but has always been interested in business administration and hopes to secure work in a secretarial role or in a position as a PA.
Since it was launched in 2012, Derwentside Homes' Brighter Futures project has helped over 420 people.
It offers clients information, advice and guidance based on their individual needs to helps them to find work and increase their skills and knowledge.
Michelle Graham, employment initiatives officer at Derwentside Homes, said: "Many residents have the potential to benefit from education and skills training which could help them find work again.
"Both Lynne and Sara are showing that with determination you can overcome serious health problems and open up new opportunities for yourself by learning new skills.
"We really value Lynne and Sara's input on our scrutiny panel as they are giving up their time to help to make our services better.
Anyone wishing to find out more about the above programmes can visit www.mcguireprogramme.com or call Michelle about Brighter Futures on 01207 524 205.


Vamaship,a company that connects shippers with logistic companies, said it has launched new service for international e-commerce shipping from Mumbai for the gems and jewellery industry starting from Rs 999 onwards for door-to-door delivery.
The customer can book the shipment on the Vamaship website and track shipments through their mobile app and on the platform added the company.
Vamaship has partnered with BVC Logistics for providing this service the company said.
India is the world's leader in the gems and jewelery business, with a majority of the polishing and finishing of diamonds and other precious stones happening in the country.
However, Indian businessmen typically do not own their own retail stores for these items in global centers like London. E-commerce could open the international market for Indian gems and jewelery players as they could now target these markets via the web.

Just like many of you, we spent our Sunday evening in Monterey. That's right, Big Little Lies is back for Season 2, and one super iconic actress has joined the cast. Meryl Streep's Big Little Lies performance has Twitter shook. The Academy Award winner stars as Mary Louise Wright, Perry's (Alexander Skarsgård) mother. Mary Louise comes to Monterey after Perry's *timely* death to help Celeste (Nicole Kidman) look after her twin boys and to dig up answers about what really happened to her son. When we first meet Mary Louise, she seems like the typical grandmother who is grieving the loss of her son. However, as the Big Little Lies premiere moved forward, we were increasingly alarmed (and amused) by her behavior.
Thought Perry was a disgusting pr*ck–Celeste is still grieving the loss of her husband and the good times that they shared. She's also trying to grapple with the guilt she feels about being involved in his death. Therefore, with Mary Louise on hand to help out with the boys and literally get them all out of bed in the morning, things seem OK–at first.
However, with those scary ass fake teeth, her rude behavior towards Madeline (Reese Witherspoon) which was some of the best shade we've seen on TV, and her violent outbursts (that mirror Perry's) we were not ready!
At one point in the episode, she greets Madeline saying, "You're very short. I don't mean it in a negative way. Maybe I do. I find little people to be untrustworthy." [We are literally cackling!!!]
If you thought Streep's Miranda Priestly was terrifying, she doesn't have shit on Mary Louise.
Honestly, we can barely deal with how iconic The Iron Lady alum is in this role and neither can Twitter.
The Emmys should honestly be polishing Meryl's award right now.

How serious are mold problems in flooded homes in the Bay Area?
First comes the flood, next comes the mold. For many residents of San Jose, the side effects of mold exposure have already begun: sneezing and coughing.
A week after the Joan Rivas-Cosby left her Olinder neighborhood home, the ceiling of her basement, where standing water sat for days, turned into a petri dish of mold growth. It was speckled with fuzzy green and blue spores, and they were growing on virtually every panel on the ceiling.
"It's heart-wrenching," said Rivas-Cosby said, who has been widowed twice and is the mother of two adult children. "Nothing is the same anymore. Everything for me has changed overnight."
San Jose, Felton, Guerneville – and more – floodwaters in Northern California have sparked a surge in mold growth in countless homes throughout the region.
For a lot of San Jose residents, Coyote Creek floodwaters, have sparked a deluge of confusion: the sudden and unexpected loss of personal property followed by the headaches of dealing with insurance issues and shady contractors. Then the worries about the filthy conditions the floodwaters left behind and the mold that it could cause that could potentially jeopardize residents' health.
If mold isn't taken care of quickly, it will spread throughout the home and colonize, creating conditions that are ripe for a series of potentially serious health problems: runny noses, watery eyes, scratchy throats, respiratory infections, and even worse, said Dr. Lisa Hernandez, a Santa Clara County deputy health officer.
Those who have compromised immune systems, chronic lung illnesses, and allergies, can develop serious lung infections when they are exposed to mold, said Hernandez.
"Most people will not have reactions, but those at highest risk really are – and that is why we care about cleaning up mold," Dr. Catherine Forest, a family medicine physician at Stanford Health Care. Dr. Forest said that she has seen more patients this winter than ever before, complaining about allergy-like symptoms that are related to mold and mildew exposure as a result of heavy rains and flooding.
It only takes 48 to 72 hours for a fungus to invade a home. As such, quickly cleaning up and thoroughly dry out water damage is imperative. Homeowners should consider hiring a licensed and experienced contractor to assess any water damage.
But Rivas-Cosby said that she didn't even know that she had a problem with mold until more than a week after the flooding occurred. That was when she was alerted by a second restoration company that she had hired (the first one took her deposit and removed most of the water, but didn't finish the job).
"We did everything wrong," she said. "You don't give business to people who knock on your door. We wanted the work done. We were desperate."
Mold Inspection & Testing San Francisco has years of experience performing mold assessments in homes throughout the area. We strongly recommend only hiring a reputable and experienced mold inspection company to check for mold in your home, otherwise you could end up in a serious predicament.
