I came across this fascinating map (link to full-sized map) of the "People's of the Soviet Union", published by the National Geographic Magazine in February 1976, which offers a unique view into what the West thought of us, the Soviet's at that time (and I wasn't even born then).
The map illustrates 24 of these peoples, most of them chosen on the basis of their population and territorial importance, others to highlight the tremendous cultural diversity of the Soviet Union.
Respected artisans, scientists, and energetic merchants, Armenians form a highly concentrated population in the rocky valleys of Transcaucasia.
Adherents to the independent Armenian Church – a distinctive form of Orthodox Christianity – they receive guidance from the Catholicos, head of the church.
The character of the Armenians is both strengthened and saddened by a dark and bloody history of wars, occupations, massacres, and deportations.
Their traditional homeland was centered in northern Turkey, but Armenian culture today thrives chiefly in Soviet Armenia.
Since World War II, the republic has welcomed more than 200,000 Armenians from communities abroad, including the United States.
Below is also the full text description published with the map.
Sprawling across eleven time zones and comprising a sixth of earth's land surface, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics embraces more than a hundred ethnic strains. This National Geographic map illustrates 24 of these peoples. Most were chosen on the basis of their population and territorial importance, others to highlight the tremendous cultural diversity of the Soviet Union. In the 1970 census, 22 ethnic groups claimed more than a million members, while a few, such as the Aleuts of the far northeast, counted fewer than 500. More than 70 percent of the U.S.S.R.'s inhabitants are Slavs – Russians, Ukrainians, Byelorussians. Their birthrate has leveled off; that of Asian peoples has soared.
The map colors, keyed to specific language groups (lower right), show the concentrations as well as the intermingling of all the Soviet peoples. Figures in native costumes further illustrate the variety of cultures. Though traditional dress has largely yielded to contemporary attire (above) in the western republics and in larger cities, such dress still appears in isolated regions and on festive occasions.
To speak of the Soviet peoples sis to speak of a history of conquest, suffering, and revolution. The Soviet Union's extraordinary mosaic of peoples and cultures began to take shape in the 15th century, as Moscow grew from a log-hut village beside a slow-moving river into the seat of a a dynamic and expanding Russian state. The east lay its first new territory into the seat of a dynamic and expanding Russian state. To the east lay its first new territory – the Upper Volga's fertile farmlands, with Finnic and Turkic inhabitants, and the wooded arctic wilderness beyond. As the 16th century waned, fur traders and cossacks extended the hand of the czars into the vast stretches o Siberia, home to scattered tribes of nomads and hunters. During the 17th and 18th centuries Russia's rulers turned west to the plains of the Ukraine, Byelorussia, and the Baltic. In the 19th century the peoples of the Caucasus were brought into the empire, and the Moslem domains of Central Asia were penetrated.
Czarist Russia collapsed during World war I, leaving the bewildering patchwork of peoples to the new leaders in the Kremlin. In 1917 the Bolsheviks set up a Communist state in Russia; five years later the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was established, with the inclusion of the Ukrainians, Byelorussians, and Transcaucasians. Some of the nations that had gained independence with the fall of the czar – most notably Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania – were declared Soviet republics early in the World War II.
Enormous changes have overtaken the population in the past generation. Some groups express a heightened interest in their cultural heritage; others, often smaller groups of peoples, find themselves adopting the language and adapting to the traditions of their neighbors. Throughout the Soviet Union a homogenization of society is taking place. Movement of workers from villages to cities, farms to factories, has created an urban majority – 60 percent. Soviet citizens from Leningrad to Verkhoyansk listen to Moscow radio and TV broadcasts beamed via satellites launched from the plains of Central Asia.

Oh, it sounds so simple doesn't it? The use of the imagination… there are no rules, no boundaries, no foundation, no precedent… So why is it, then, that many of us become so disengaged with creativity once we grow up?
Once there was a nice lady.
Her favorite place was the Cozy Nook.
The nook was a corner full of twinkle lights and office supplies, two of the lady's favorite things. Early in the morning, she'd wake and go straight to the cozy nook. She'd draw and write and pray and ponder. And the time in the cozy nook would refresh her and fill her with wonder.

Q: How are multiple websites load balanced across multiple instances on App Service Plans? We're hosting 3 separate websites on a single app service plan. This plan is configured to run 3 small instances (S1). I understand this to mean 3 separate servers each with 1 CPU.
If only one of the three websites experiences very high traffic from a single source (another offsite server) how is the load balanced across the 3 instances?
Are all of the requests going to round-robin or all try to go to a single instance? How do I control or test this?
Is the single website restricted to a fraction/portion of the resources available on a single instance when there are other sites?
What are the advantages of running multiple single CPU instances vs a single instance with multiple CPUs with Azure Websites? (Besides availability)
We've attempted to load test one of the sites and it seems to never use more than 10-15% of the CPU when we are slamming only 1 site and the other 2 have no traffic. This is what made me suspicious of the load balance.

A: Your first paragraph is correct. You will have 3 S1 servers allocated to your sites.
Each server will host all 3 sites. The requests to any site will be routed at random to any of the servers.
However, by default sticky sessions are enabled, which means that a single client will always hit the same server for the same site.  So if one client is really hammering a site all the load will go to a single server.
You can disable this behavior by disabling ARR's Instancy Affinity for the site. You do that by setting the custom header Arr-Disable-Session-Affinity = false in your web.config file.
More detailed instructions here: https://azure.microsoft.com/blog/2013/11/18/disabling-arrs-instance-affinity-in-windows-azure-web-sites/

Rahel's Website
I am a certified instructor and teacher trainer in the Cass-Beggs music programs for babies and young children. There are many programs that teach music from as early as babies but none of them compare to Barbara's tried and true programs. Barbara studied with music education pioneers including Dalcroze, Kodaly, and Orff and successfully integrated their practices into her programs. Barbara's innovation was that she was able to develop a method to reach children as young as babies - including newborns!
I was blessed to have had Barbara as a mentor. I worked with her personally for three years to learn her method, establish a branch of the association in Israel, and then later I became certified to train others in her method. I was also blessed to work personally with Anne Lief Barlin who developed innovative methods in teaching Creative Movement and Dance to young children.
Please bring music into your children's lives. They will grow into healthy and happy people when the arts are part of their lives!
Educator, singer/songwriter, guitarist, folk and therapeutic music practitioner, and mother to Inbal and Eran, Rahel holds a B.Sc. in the Arts (Musical and Theater Arts for Children) from Empire State College (SUNY), and a Certificate of Distinction in Barbara Cass–Beggs' Listen Like Learn music program for babies and young children.
Rahel lived in Israel from 1976-1998 where she met Barbara Cass-Beggs z"l in 1986. She worked closely with her for three more years to train students in Barbara's music program. Together they successfully adapted the LISTEN LIKE LEARN and YOUR CHILD NEEDS MUSIC programs to the needs of Israeli society, translating song repertoire to Hebrew and establishing music classes for babies and young children in day-care centers and schools. Rahel also studied movement with Anne Leif Barlin, leading pioneer in creative dance for children.

Presently residing in the USA, Rahel works as a performing and recording musician, teacher, and conducts programs and workshops for teens, school-aged children and teachers around the globe.
Letter from Barbara to Rahel
Dear Rahel,
I wonder whether you realize what a tremendous job you have done. Without your insight and hard work and determination there would be no "Listen Like Learn Association" in Israel and no classes for children and babies who need them.
You are a very humble person and are capable of working for a cause (music for young children) which we all feel is worthwhile, but only you have made it possible to increase musical opportunities for our children.
To me, you are a very special person.
My love,

Q: How to check if the GPS is ON or OFF I can get Latitude and Longitude using Xamarin.Essentials but is there any way to check the status of GPS for Xamarin forms. I have used the following code but didn't get any result:
https://github.com/jamesmontemagno/PermissionsPlugin

A: Have a try with GeolocatorPlugin ,this plugin can help check whether GPS is ON or Off easily.
public bool IsLocationAvailable()
{
    if (!CrossGeolocator.IsSupported)
        return false;

    return CrossGeolocator.Current.IsGeolocationAvailable;

Q: Is it possible to read the data from different sheets in a same xlsx file? i am using the Apache POI to read an xlsx file. i can able to read the Sheet1 data. But when try to read the Sheet2 i am getting the Sheet1 data only.
String strPath = "..\\Test.xlsx";
        File excelFile = new File(strPath);
        FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(excelFile);

        // we create an XSSF Workbook object for our XLSX Excel File
        XSSFWorkbook workbook = new XSSFWorkbook(fis);

        Sheet sheet1= workbook.getSheetAt(0);
        Sheet sheet2= workbook.getSheetAt(1);

A: When you call getSheetAt(i), it returns a XSSFSheet object, which implements the Sheet interface under org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel. Consider the block of code below:
XSSFSheet sheet = workbook.getSheetAt(0);
System.out.println(sheet.getRow(0).getCell(0).getStringCellValue());
sheet = workbook.getSheetAt(1);
System.out.println(sheet.getRow(0).getCell(0).getStringCellValue());

The code above should print the content of cell A1 for the first two sheets on your document. I did it myself with a test file and it worked.

A: Here's an example of how to do that using apache POI https://www.callicoder.com/java-read-excel-file-apache-poi/
This is the part where they're iterating over the different sheets
    // 1. You can obtain a sheetIterator and iterate over it
    Iterator<Sheet> sheetIterator = workbook.sheetIterator();
    System.out.println("Retrieving Sheets using Iterator");
    while (sheetIterator.hasNext()) {
        Sheet sheet = sheetIterator.next();
        System.out.println("=> " + sheet.getSheetName());
    }

Vietnam's PM calls Germany an 'important' partner at Mekong climate meeting
Vietnam's PM Nguyen Xuan Phuc meets with German ambassador Christian Berger on Wednesday
German expertise could help mitigate the impacts of climate change in the country's rice basket.
Vietnam's Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc met with German ambassador Christian Berger on the sidelines of a climate change conference in the Mekong Delta on Wednesday.
Phuc said Vietnam is thankful for German support that has positively contributed to the country's socio-economic development, especially in environmental protection and climate change adaptation.
He also asked the German government to help Vietnam's Mekong Delta establish a suitable development plan to tackle climate change, according to a statement posetd on the government website.
Berger was among a number of foreign diplomats besides those from Australia, Japan and Sweden who attended a two-day conference in Can Tho City that opened Tuesday to discuss sustainable development plans for the Mekong Delta, Vietnam's rice basket.
Phuc, who attended the G20 Summit in Hamburg in July, told Berger that Vietnam regards Germany as one of its most trustworthy and important partners in Europe.
He called for more regular meetings to enhance mutual trust and develop bilateral ties in all fields.
Vietnam and Germany's bilateral ties hit a hiccup around two months ago when Berlin accused Vietnam of abducting former oil executive Trinh Xuan Thanh. Thanh was seeking asylum in Germany after the Vietnamese government issued an arrest warrant for him in connection with a $150 million fraud case at state energy group PetroVietnam.
According to Vietnamese police, the oil executive turned himself in. Vietnam has said it regretted to learn of the German accusations.

The country is expected to have the world's greatest improvement in the coming decades, says PricewaterhouseCoopers
Vietnam's remarkable economic progress looks set to continue in the coming years, despite a regional slowdown which has affected other states in Southeast Asia.
In 2016, Ho Chi Minh City welcomed many leaders and foreign investors. Many bilateral cooperation projects were signed, opening a bright future for the city. On occasion of celebrating the year of the Rooster 2017, the German, Netherlands and Singapore Consul Generals have had talks with the Sai Gon Giai Phong Newspaper.
Deutsche Bank Senior Economist Ms. Juliana Lee said: "Vietnam is expected to post a stronger GDP growth of 6.4% in 2017, up from 6.2% in 2016, supported by a sustained recovery in agriculture and exports. We also see Vietnam remaining on the path of reform to improve its long-term growth potential."
Vietnam weathered an epic drought in 2016 and the World Bank estimates a third of its 93 million people still live in poverty. You hear about corruption and faltering agriculture, perhaps a reason why people are poor.

Nobody Safe in the NHL
Ida AllenJanuary 30, 2020Hockey Coach
Job security has become a significant issue amongst professional athletes and coaches in the National Hockey League. This applies more to those in coaching positions, with multiple individuals being fired throughout the 2019-20 season. Bruce Cassidy from the Boston Bruins is growing more concerned that coaches could be terminated for not winning championship titles. Considering that there's only one championship in the NHL, this leaves 20+ coaches potentially being fired. Cassidy is coaching the All-Star Game alongside other notable individuals. These men are discussing strategies to request job security amongst NHL coaches.
Bruce Cassidy was concerned that he'd lose his position as head coach of the Boston Bruins. This concern came after losing the Stanley Cup Finals to the St. Louis Blues. Other coaches that took their organizations to this championship event weren't lucky enough to keep their positions. Gerard Gallant, the previous head coach for the Vegas Golden Knights, trained players to the Stanley Cup Finals in their 1st season. After losing to the Washing Capitals during the 2018 championship, he was immediately terminated and replaced by Peter DeBoer. This man has also lost his championship opportunity in 2017 while coaching the Nashville Predators, where DeBoer would lose to the Pittsburgh Penguins. This has been a re-occurring strategy for NHL Teams, to terminate one losing coach and hire another that previously lost.
Several changes to coaching staff were made throughout this season, five being performance-related and the others relating to behavioural-issues. This included Mike Babcock, Bill Peters and Jim Montgomery for the personal problems between fellow players and coaches. Babcock is considered to be the worst, as he'd deliberately act aggressive towards his players and often would commit violent acts. Shockingly, the National Hockey League would allow him to remain to coach going forward. However, these several terminations weren't as extensive when eleven coaches were fired throughout the 2002-03 season. Since those original terminations, communication between NHL Corporate and the coaches have been lacklustre.
Long-Term Coaches
When it applies to NHL coaches, the longest-tenured individual is Jon Cooper from the Tampa Bay Lightning. Hired initially during the 2013 season, he's completed six professional seasons and has the highest record amongst all coaching staff in the NHL. Coming in sixth place in Bruce Cassidy, who has coached the Boston Bruins since the 2016-17 season. Cassidy would have to remain with the Bruins for an additional three seasons to defeat Jon Cooper's record, under the condition that the Tampa Bay Lightning coach was terminated after this season.

Conference Hours 9 a.m.–2:30 p.m.
This third annual free agricultural conference and trade show was designed to meet the economic and environmental needs of small farmers and beginning gardeners, as well as generate a positive impact by building connections between farmers, educators, and agriculture-related businesses. NC Agritunity is a collaborative effort between N.C. Cooperative Extension agents in Iredell, Alexander, Caldwell, Catawba, Rowan, and Wilkes counties.
Heritage Homestead Goat Dairy is nestled on 17 acres in the mountains of Ashe County just outside of Jefferson, North Carolina. Carol and Lon Coulter purchased the farm in 1994, which had been a working cow dairy until the early 70s. To help clear the briars and brambles that had taken over the farm, the Coulters purchased goats. One thing led to another and soon enough Carol was milking goats and taking cheese classes.

Journalists arrested without charges
The Honorable Syed Iftikhar Hussain Shah
Governor, North West Frontier Province
Peshawar, NWFP
Via facsimile: 92-91-921-0087
Dear Governor Shah:
The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) respectfully asks you to order the immediate release of Rifatullah Orakzai, a reporter for the Peshawar-based English-language newspaper Khyber Mail; Muhammad Iqbal Afridi, a district correspondent based in Bara, Khyber Agency, who contributes to the national Urdu-language daily Al-Akhbar; and Syed Karim, a stringer for the national Urdu-language daily Khabrain.
On October 5, authorities in Khyber Agency arrested the three, along with two French journalists working for the Paris-based television news channel LCI. The French journalists — Olivier Ravanello, a reporter, and Jérôme Marcantetti, a cameraman — were released without charge on October 8 after officials from the French embassy intervened. However, the local journalists remain jailed on the authority of the political agent of Khyber Agency, Dr. Fida Wazir.
Political agents exercise virtually unchecked power in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas, which include Khyber Agency, and have routinely used their authority to punish journalists for their reporting.
No charges have been filed against any of the three detained journalists, and it is our belief, based on interviews with local sources, that the reporters were arrested merely for carrying out their professional duty.
As an organization of journalists dedicated to the defense of our colleagues around the world, CPJ urges you to use your good office to ensure that Orakzai, Afridi, and Karim are granted immediate and unconditional release.
We thank you for your attention to this urgent matter, and await your response.

Q: java.lang.ClassCastException: android.os.Parcelable[] cannot be cast to Photo[] It's happening for 0.08% of our users.
One of the crashes happening on Samsung Galaxy S10 running Android 11

It's not crashing on my Samsung Galaxy S10 running Android 11 though!
Does anyone know why?
Line where it crashes
Photo[] photoArray = (Photo[]) bundle.getParcelableArray(EXTRA_PHOTOS);

1st finding
Photo photo1 = new Photo(231, "url", "photoid", "profilid", "caption");
      Parcelable[] parcelables1 = new Parcelable[]{photo1};
      Photo[] array = (Photo[]) parcelables1;

Throws ClassCastException
This couple with the fact that Bundle#getParcelableArray only returns a Parcelable array, not the the concrete class Photo array explains why the crash is expected
But why is it only happening for some users only?
2nd finding
This post claims that getParcelableArray() won't work, only getParcelableArrayListExtra() or individual casting will work but the why is unclear to me
3rd finding
So I've learnt that downcasting arrays is not supposed to work in Java or Kotlin, at least not in the way Android Bundle do it.
The reason why getParcelableArrayListExtra() works is because it assume generic type and did work to handle the type.
Question remains: how come getParcelableArray() works nicely in my real device and emulator? Is there some black magic hidden in plain sight here?
Code below

Photo.java
public class Photo implements Serializable, Model, Parcelable {

  private String caption;
  private String id, idProfile;
  private int position;
  private String iphoneFullscreen;

  public Photo(int position, String url, String photoId, String profileId, String caption) {
    iphoneFullscreen = url;
    this.position = position;
    this.id = photoId;
    idProfile = profileId;
    this.caption = caption;
  }

    dest.writeString(this.id);
    dest.writeString(this.idProfile);
    dest.writeInt(this.position);
    dest.writeString(this.iphoneFullscreen);
  }

  protected Photo(Parcel in) {

    this.id = in.readString();
    this.idProfile = in.readString();

Divestment is a step towards justice
by Courtney White, Columnist
Ivy League schools such as Harvard and Stanford have launched major movements towards divestment from Israel, and frankly, San Diego State is falling behind.
Not only is divestment the ethical path for those who identify as global citizens in accordance with international law, but it's also a movement quickly spreading across the nation and it won't look good when SDSU is late to the party.
To divest is to discontinue investing in companies that profit from Israeli human rights violations against Palestinians. These companies SDSU invests in include: Caterpillar, General Electric, Hewlett Packard and Motorola. These companies contribute to violence against Palestinians through their production of weaponry, segregated cell phone systems, targeted radar surveillance and missile pieces.
One company, Lockheed Martin, along with many others, provide bombs and fighter jets for the Israeli Defense Force attacks of innocent Palestinians.
According to a Harvard University Institute of Politics article, divestment from companies — while having little financial impact — has a large role in facilitating public discourse and statistically results in real change.
A prime example of a divestment campaigns succeeding in political pressure is the success of the South African divestment campaign, which ultimately lead to the end of the South African apartheid regime.
Rhetoric and writing graduate student and Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) member, Bo Elder, shed some light on the values and consequences of divestment. He said the idea that students can't help, is a myth.
"It's ordinary people here responding to the call for solidarity from ordinary people in Palestine," said Elder.
On Feb. 8, the board of the University of California Students Association passed a historic vote for schools in California, which urged university government to divest from all companies that participate in these human rights violations of Palestinians.
California is making progress, but the fight is not over.
On Feb. 10, Stanford's Associated Students motion for divestment was defeated with just one vote under the required number. Last November, University of California, Los Angeles passed a vote in the student senate to move forward in the divestment process. All the while, pro-Israel groups have been absent at most of these meetings to protest or pass comment.
There have been reports of unwelcoming behavior towards Jewish pro-Israel activists in the UC system, and divestment, in no way, supports this behavior. It should be obvious that supporting divestment doesn't equate to supporting harassment and discrimination.
People have different reasons for supporting divestment, and they won't all be good reasons, but it's important to focus on the real consequences.
Forth bearing people to push for a more just arrangement
In 2013, the Daily Aztec interviewed SDSU director of Hillel Jackie Tolley, who said, "Students at SDSU would be better served with an effort to support a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict' rather than a resolution that is part of an international campaign whose hidden agenda is to eradicate the Jewish state and the only democracy in the Middle East."
Elder didn't see validity in this statement and said that a state cannot be ethically exclusive and democratic.
"The resolution is not about a two state or three state solution. This is just about human rights under the law regardless of race or religion," said Elder.
For SDSU students who want to make a difference and believe it needs to be democratically decided within the student body—signing the petition on the SJP website is a great first step.
This is the only ethical way to build awareness and collective power to make a change.

"My daughter and her husband want me to live with them. They have three children, a dog, a cat, and many friends. Their lives are a whirlwind of activities, sports, vacations, and commotion. I have been a widow for 10 years and have grown used to a much quieter lifestyle. I live in my own home and maintain it without any problem. I really enjoy my grandchildren and my daughter's company, but I am not certain I want to live with them or impose my later, higher-need years on them. I do not know what the future holds for me, so I am not certain what I should tell her."
You have beautifully put into writing exactly what you should say to your daughter. It is okay to desire some solitude over the hustle and bustle associated with family life. I am certain that you lived that part of your life and have accepted it is done. It is a little bit like looking back on college years (i.e., that lifestyle can be a lot of fun, but remembering all the hard work and busy schedules makes one not want to go back. Well, maybe for a football game, but not to relive the entire experience).
What your daughter is most likely concerned about is your welfare, should you not be able to care for yourself in the future. She is likely feeling obligated to offer a solution for you if you need it. One has to be grateful for a concerned and generous daughter; however, that does not mean it is the best solution for you or your future care needs.
You sound like an independent individual who is quite capable of making decisions. I recommend you begin exploring all future living situations. Do this by making appointments with elderly living places in your community. Get the pricing, talk about waiting lists and find out about the levels of care.
Once you have collected information about your options, talk it over with your daughter. If you plan in advance, the choice is clearly yours. Waiting until something happens – like many do – means the choice may be made too quickly, without the careful vetting that you now have the opportunity to do.
You may desire to stay in your home until your last breath. With enough money, that can be entirely possible. Calculate the cost of that type of care over time, and plan to have the money available for it. That would be true of care in a facility also.
After you complete your research, meet with your daughter and discuss your choice. A parent who plans is a wonderful gift for the children.

Planned Parenthood Doc Caught Saying She'd "Break the Baby's Neck" if Baby Born Alive After Abortion
Debra Braun Jun 27, 2017 | 11:28AM St. Paul, Minnesota
Planned Parenthood abortionists in St. Paul, Minnesota would "break the baby's neck" if the child was born alive, according to a new video just released by Pro-Life Action Ministries. This would be a violation of both federal and Minnesota law.
In the video, a former Planned Parenthood client says that when she went to Planned Parenthood earlier this year for a late-term abortion (at 22 weeks, 1 day), she asked the two abortionists, "If you guys were to take him out right now while he's still, his heart rate is still, you know, going, what would you guys do?"
According to the woman, one of the abortionists looked at the other one, then looked back at the client, "and she told me that we don't tell women this, and a lot of women don't even ask this question, but if we was to proceed with the abortion and the baby was to come out still alive and active, most likely we would break the baby's neck."
This would be a clear violation of Minnesota's "Born Alive Infants Protection Act," which, similar to federal law, requires that, "All reasonable measures consistent with good medical practice . . . shall be taken . . . . to preserve the life and health of the born alive infant."
The video also describes how on the first day of this two-day abortion procedure, the abortionist searched for the baby with a long needle to inject digoxin and how the baby survived that injection. The woman had started to have a change of heart following this injection, after reading the information given to her by Pro-Life Action Ministries' sidewalk counselors on her way into Planned Parenthood. That information included the story of another woman who changed her mind, stopped a late-term abortion and gave birth to a healthy baby.
In the new video, the woman said she requested an ultrasound on the second day to see if her baby was still alive and when it revealed that he was and she learned what PP abortionists would do if aborted alive, the woman demanded that the dilators be removed so that she could go home and keep her baby.
"The more I was telling them no," the woman said, "it was more like they were trying to sell me something, like a seller that pushes you and pushes you until you buy their item or their product. That's how it felt, as if they were trying to sell me this abortion."
Since the video was recorded, the baby has been born at full-term. He is doing very well. The woman's identity has been concealed so that she will not be subject to retaliation from Planned Parenthood.
"Planned Parenthood in Minnesota must be investigated," said Brian Gibson, Executive Director of Pro-Life Action Ministries. "How many other laws are they willing to, and most likely, violating? We have no idea since there are no inspections, no compliance checks and no investigations when these ugly realities come to light."
Gibson continued, "This video adds to the considerable evidence that Planned Parenthood must be defunded."
These St. Paul abortionists are not the only Planned Parenthood abortionists willing to kill born-alive infants.
In a recent release by the Center for Medical Progress (CMP) another PP abortionist strongly implies that she would kill a baby born alive if she could get away with it. DeShawn Taylor, former Planned Parenthood Arizona Medical Director, was asked by CMP undercover investigators, "Is there any standard procedure for verifying signs of life?"
Taylor responded, "Well the thing is, I mean the key is, you need to pay attention to who's in the room, right? And like, you know, because the thing is the law states that you're not supposed to do any maneuvers after the fact to try to cause [fetal] demise. So it's really tricky. It's really tricky, so most of the time we do dig [digoxin], and it usually works. And then we don't have to worry about that because Arizona state law says if any, if there's signs of life, then we're supposed to transport them. To the hospital."

Compassion for homeless in Mid-Pacific community
Josephine Brewer, Features Editor|May 19, 2022
Photo contributed by Michael Valentine
In 2017, Valentine took his judo students to volunteer at a women and children's shelter.
By Josephine Brewer
In 2003, high school science teacher and judo instructor, Michael Valentine, spent about four months in San Francisco without a home.
Although becoming homeless was not in his plans, he uses his life experience to introduce students to be a part of the solution to a statewide problem.
"That's what I teach in class, everything I never heard when I was in high school, all the little mistakes," Valentine said.
According to 2020 census data, 14% of homes in Hawai'i are vacant. On Oahu alone that number drops to 9.2%.
Even with so many empty homes, many remain without one.
Hawaii, which used to be the leading state with the biggest homeless population is now second, with 15,000 homeless individuals and about 2,000 chronically homeless. Chronically homeless meaning having been homeless for at least a year or repeatedly.
Being homeless in Hawaii can be a very different experience than being homeless in other states.
"You can be outside all the time. It's not that bad. Compared to New York, where you're freezing, where you can die," Valentine said.
A top earner at Circuit City, Valentine was let go when they stopped doing commission sales. He would stay with friends for a few days under the notion that something was wrong with his house.
"I pretended that 'oh, I need a place to stay for a few days' and I would go to somebody else's house and somebody else's house," he said.
Living without shelter is more than not having a roof overhead. Finding a place to stay and a reliable, safe environment comes with many dangers.
"Women, you know, very often are either raped or beaten out there. And the children, they don't really have any way to protect them. So they (the women and childrens' shelter) produce it just for them," Valentine said.
There aren't solely issues with people becoming homeless. There's also issues with how people get out of their situation, danger in shelters, and fear of becoming homeless again.
"It's a bigger systemic issue than just being homeless," Valentine said.
Mid-Pacific offered some opportunities in the past to learn about homelessness and ways students can help. One is volunteering at shelters.
In 2017, Valentine took judo students to the women and children's shelter to learn about life in the shelter and how they could help. The excursion was organized by a judo student's parent.
"We get a donor to help give food, and we hand it out, but more so to educate the kids and explain to them how the shelter works, what it looks like, how does it do it?" Valentine said.
Sophomore Emma-Lani Brown volunteers with her family at Keauhou Shelter, connected to Next Step Shelter.
"I'm helping my family. I also like helping people in need," Brown said.
Brown said homelessness is an issue everyone should care about. But it can be difficult to help at times.
Valentine said sometimes people will refuse help.
"Usually, like during Thanksgiving and all that, I will try to bring them food or whatever like that. But I remember one year we did that, they threw food back at us, and they wanted money," Valentine said.
Drug addiction is one reason people find themselves living on the streets and what it means to help can be difficult to gauge.
"It opens up this whole philosophical argument, right? We got to help everybody. But if you don't want to be helped, how do I help you? And what do they mean by help? Has it helped them: money to buy drugs or money for help?" Valentine said.
Sometimes it can even be dangerous to help. There are cases of civilians being attacked by the homeless, which can make some people hesitant to help.
Institute for Human Services single women and families' shelter guest service worker, Kaya Langi, says you can't help everyone the same way.
"A lot of people have different things they're balancing. People end up homeless for all different reasons. We have to evaluate your situation first to be able to help," Langi said.
Although 2017 was the only year Mid-Pacific took students to the women and children's shelter, there are other ways the school is teaching students about homelessness in Hawaii.
Eighth grade students recently worked on building a dome, as domes are being used to house the homeless on the grounds of a church in Kaneohe.
Community service projects can turn to personal enrichment when students hear stories from their teachers, like that of Valentine's.
"I signed up for unemployment, I signed up for welfare, I signed up for everything, but I paid it all back, that was one of the things I wanted to do," Valentine said.
Valentine helps pay it back by teaching his students to learn from his past and help them with their future.
"That's what I've run in my class. I use my homelessness, my troubles as examples," Valentine said.
Although it can be awful reaching for someone to reach lowest points and hard to recover, figuring out how to pick up the pieces can be an insightful experience.
"Sometimes you have to hit rock bottom, so you know how to get back up. And then, that's where you really figure out who you are," Valentine said.

One of my students brought "The Monkey Business Illusion" video to my attention during a discussion of the materialist philosopher, Democritus. How did we get to talking about gorillas? I'm not certain, but that we were talking about how our perceptions of nature – not just the little things, but the big things too – can be tricked. Until our attention is focused on a particular change or transformation, we do not see it occurring. If we are only looking for the material causes in nature, we will find them, but our perceptions will be limited by our attention span. Just as in the video, we miss not only the altering of little details, but huge events are occurring and we simply miss them – yet they are right there, like the invisible gorilla – mocking us when we discover our foolishness in not noticing changes the first time around.
Now, at almost the same time I was typing up a couple creative writing ideas on the topic of technology when another student came to to tell me about her Dad and an email "faux pas". Her dad had almost sent an email without spell-checking it and to his chagrin discovered he came close to sending out a message to his staff in which he had a "u" where he should have had "you". We both agreed that in the "old days" before email/texting, a handwritten or typewritten memo would have never contained such a trivial but monumentally embarrassing typo. But the "u" was there, he had typed it and it bothered him when he saw it – like the invisible gorilla – mocking him.
Whatever topic you write about please take some time to address the following question as well: Is technology making us more perceptive of the world around us or is it just getting in the way of seeing the things that matter most?


"Wanted–An Explanation" is an anonymous novella that appeared in four weekly issues of Household Words during June of 1881. (This was a revival of a journal that Charles Dickens had begun and edited in the 1850s.) The work is an interesting one, and I was very excited as I began reading it. After all, it spotlights one of the rare female ghost hunters on my bibliography, Lady Julia Spinner.
Serving as narrator, Lady Julia is an enjoyably crusty, no-nonsense woman who has never married and probably sees no reason why she would. In some ways, she's like my own ghost hunter, Vera Van Slyke. She becomes a bit snarky, though, when first hearing that a manor called Hunt House is haunted. You see, Lady Julia is a committed ghost hunter, but very much unlike Vera, she doesn't believe in ghosts.
In fact, when later called to Hunt House to investigate strange events there, she remains skeptical of supernatural explanations — even after she experiences some very odd sensations herself. This contradiction coupled with her crankiness makes Lady Julia one of the more developed ghost hunter characters I've discovered.
Here comes the Spoilers Parade!
A broken thread appears in the story when we learn how the specter is perceived — or is almost perceived. On the day Lady Julia arrives to investigate the house, she's in her bedroom unpacking. She speaks to her maid, but she gets no reply.
Then I turned round. Beaufort was not there. I was alone. Simple as this was, it positively gave me a shock. Although I had not heard her fidgeting, I could have sworn she was in the room—that well-known, indescribable consciousness of the presence of another identity beside one's own, with which we are all familiar, had so entirely possessed me.
This corner-of-the-eye awareness of the ghostly presence seems to relate to why the new lady of the house becomes enamored with skating. Do the spins and turns Susy Sherbrooke performs on the ice help her to interact with the elusive ghost? These two key elements of the case are never overtly connected, and I'm left wondering if they really have anything to do with each other.
Alas, this is not from the story. It's Hy S. Watson's illustration for the poem "A Skating Song," by Charles Gordon Rogers, published in an 1894 issue of Outing.
What's worse is that, just as Lady Julia is about to unravel the riddle, she's called away. And away she goes! Susy, her friend, is put into far greater danger as a result of this. That's good for the dramatic tension, I guess, but it seems inconsistent with, if not Lady Julia's character, then with her role as the story's detective.
I worry that I've already spoiled things too much, but let me repeat that I found the conclusion unsatisfying in its lack of a confirmed solution to the mystery. It seems as if that title was a way of compensating for this disappointing ending instead of, say, signaling that the author was hoping to try something new with how a mystery is resolved. Indeed, perhaps, the reader is invited to do a better job of tying up loose ends than Lady Julia does.

The Howard Terminal Final Environmental Impact Report
Has Been Approved
Environmental Impact Reports are intended to inform the public about the impact a development will have on the local environment and community, describe ways to minimize negative effects, and identify reasonable alternatives.
The Final EIR confirmed what we already know: there are no mitigation measures included that will prevent the disruption of the supply chain at the Port of Oakland that will result from this project.
We are disappointed that the City Council voted to certify the Final EIR despite the fact that it fails to provide sufficient protection against dangerous environmental and community impacts. Several lawsuits have been filed against the Final EIR.
Read below to learn more about the EIR.
The FEIR identifies numerous significant and unavoidable impacts on critical areas of concern. Several lawsuits have been filed against the final, certified EIR to ensure the A's don't move forward without addressing these key issues.
→Traffic: The FEIR assumes existing truck uses at Howard Terminal will just disappear and does not consider where they will go. Removing Howard Terminal from its current uses would force the 3,200 trucks that use Howard Terminal back into residential neighborhoods. Additionally, the DEIR does not outline or analyze a transportation plan for the 10,000+ cars that will flood into the region on game days, inevitably creating traffic congestion for residents, visitors, and trucks headed to and from the Port of Oakland.
→Parking: The FEIR assumes the ballpark and indoor performance venue, with a combined capacity of 38,500 people, will share 2,000 park spaces. The development will rely heavily on having tens of thousands of fans parking on residential streets to attend events.
→Health & the Environment: Despite proposed mitigation measures, the project will result in significant and unavoidable environmental impacts, including pollutant emissions that far exceed the city's thresholds and the Port's emission goals. Mitigation related to the disruption of the toxic substances was left to "future studies" and a future plan for how the toxic soil will be remedied. Without completing these studies and defining their plan for full site cleanup first, it is impossible for the EIR to fully analyze the impact of removing the cap over these toxins and exposing them to the air and nearby water.
→Public Safety: The FEIR only requires the construction of one overcrossing for thousands of pedestrians and bicyclists to mitigate the public safety concerns posed by crossing an active freight rail line to reach the stadium. The DEIR finds the project would expose motorists, pedestrians, bus riders, and bicyclists to permanent or substantial safety hazards.
→Noise: The FEIR assumes that the full project buildout will occur over an 8-year construction period, during which time nearby residents may be required to temporary relocate due to excessive noise.
→Jobs: The A's brag that their entertainment complex will create 9,499 new jobs at the project completion, but the FEIR states that the project "would not contribute to cumulative substantial unplanned employment growth in the city or region."
The A's continue to make it clear they have no intention of paying for any of the proposed mitigations required to make this project viable and instead want taxpayers to foot the bill for their luxury development.

This is a good free energiser to use when you want to give participants a chance to pause from thinking too much about the topic of the day or even to relieve the stresses of a difficult session. We have found it useful in the past for helping to 'rein in' a more vocal member of the group. Of course it can also be used just for fun. It is very similar in concept to the energiser, 'Take What You Need'.
A set of instructions for the energiser, 'Sweet Questions' can be downloaded for free from the link at the bottom of this page, or you can follow the notes below.
Resources – a bag of sweets.
Instructions – walk amongst the participants with a bag of sweets. As you pass each participant, offer them the bag of sweets and say, 'Help yourself'.
Most people will take one or two sweets. However, there is always one person (usually the loudest, most confident) who will find it funny to pull out lots of sweets until they have a small bundle. Don't comment on this, but simply move onto the next person and continue the task until you have asked everyone.
Once all participants have a sweet/s, advise them that for every piece of sweet they are holding they will be asked a question related to the topic of the day.
The person who took lots of sweets no longer finds it very funny, but everyone else will!
This energiser helps to reinforce learning as well as focusing participants on the task in hand. It is useful to break up difficult learning periods or just to re-energise and enthuse the participants.

Bhoot Part One The Haunted Ship Movie Review: Vicky Kaushal sinks with this dreadfully boring horror flick
Leave a Comment	/ blog / By samson
Acrackling theatre, with the audience laughing out loud at some of the scenes. An outsider might confuse it for a comedy film but it was Vicky Kaushal's horror flick – Bhoot Part One: The Haunted Ship – that was being played at the big screen last night.
Being unable to make the audience sqirm with fear is one thing, but having them laugh at the film's most "frightening" scenes is a sign of sheer failure. Bhanu Pratap Singh's directorial debut Bhoot Part One: The Haunted Ship came falls, and therefore fails, the latter category.
The film established our protagonist Prithvi (Vicky) as a braveheart. A lonely soul who is grieving the death of his wife (Bhumi Pednekar) and daughter. He goes out of his way to help people, even if it involves risking his own life.
After giving a brief history of Prithvi's life, the film wastes no time in getting to its actual protagonist – Sea Bird – an abandoned ship that has reached Mumbai's shore. Vicky's company is in charge of getting rid of the ship, with him leading the task.
Rumours of the ship being haunted have been travelling to Vicky but he ignores it all and enters it for inspection. After experiencing some paranormal activities himself, Vicky decides to delve deep into the subject. His experience on the ship and a few evidence that he collects, make it is clear that Sea Bird is haunted. With the help his friend and two more people, Vicky tries to fix it all.
Bhoot Part One: The Haunted Ship's storyline has major loopholes and we were willing to ignore it all if it had the potential to scare the daylights out of us. Bhoot delivers nothing of that sort. The ghosts in the film are, in fact, so unconvincing that they appear more like lizards crawling in the background. You might be reminded of Bipasha Basu's Creature, which isn't a good memory either. The director tries to make the audience scream with a few jump scares but they all fall flat, leaving us miffed.
In any horror film, music plays a key role in making it a spine-chilling experience, an element that Anushka Sharma's 2018 horror film Pari mastered. In Bhoot, however, no work has been done on its music. A few finger snaps, a lullaby and a strange doll are enough to scare our well-built lead. Perhaps we are stronger than Vicky Kaushal.
Bhanu came with little homework done and his lack of experience and knowledge is screaming on screen. He keeps a major plot twist for the end and uses it as a bait. He wants his already mind-numbingly bored audience to watch his film till the end for THAT twist. But we lose our strength here. After watching most of this "horror" film with a straight face, it gets difficult to sit through the last few minutes
In the end, the burden of Bhoot Part One: The Haunted Ship falls on Vicky's shoulders and the actor tries his best to keep it from sinking. He plays his part with conviction but succumbs to lack of directorial sense and a weak storyline.

The 154-acre Disney's Hollywood Studios, the least popular of the four Disney parks, is undergoing massive development, and so many attractions are offline that to pay full-price for it would currently be an outrage, so it's a good thing for Disney that Magic Your Way exists to float attendance. There's a lot to fix. Rushed into existence to head off competition from Universal, this troubled park is poorly laid out and the weakest in Orlando on activities for small children. Over the next few years, Disney is throwing billions at an attempted resurrection with the addition of a 14-acre Star Wars-themed land, a Toy Story Land of kiddie rides, and very likely a new name for the park, its third in three decades. Until then, the park is crippled and confused, and construction disruption is everywhere. Prioritize DHS last—if you skip it entirely, you're really only missing three noteworthy rides: the Tower of Terror, the Rock n' Roller Coaster, and Toy Story Midway Mania.
While it was originally conceived as a single Epcot pavilion about show business, Universal's invasion of the Florida market prodded Disney executives to hastily inflate the concept into an entire park and working production facility, Disney–MGM Studios. In 1989, the Studios opened with just two tame rides (the Great Movie Ride and the Backlot Tour). Production never took off and most guests didn't care about the MGM co-branding. An on-site center for hand-painted animation shut down in 2004; MGM was stripped from the name in 2008; and the Backlot Tour, a tram ride/Universal rip-off that pretended that film production was actually happening, died in 2014.
Permanent closures come frequently as Disney scrambles to reorganize the park, and minor attractions in this guide may have been booted with only weeks' notice by the time you arrive. Disney's rich film legacy is ignored; to spackle over the glaring gaps, it relies heavily on cheap material from Star Wars, a brand it purchased off the rack in 2012.
Given its current state, Frommer's does not recommend devoting a full day to Hollywood Studios. Instead, combine it with Animal Kingdom or linger just long enough to ride the marquee attractions and then catch the pyrotechnic-and-water curtain evening show, Fantasmic!, which actually is good. Also good is Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular, a nighttime show that mixes fireworks, lasers, and projections—it's well done even if it is one more Star Wars thing, but get a viewpoint that looks squarely at the Chinese Theater or you'll miss things.

I once published an article about Energizer introducing the Power Max P16K Pro which is regarded as the Cheapest Smartphone With A Huge 16000mAh Battery in the market. While that may be so, today I will be introducing to you, another device known as The World's Smallest 4G Rugged Phone.
Called Unihertz Atom, the phone reported generated over $1 million in crowdfunding on the Kickstarter campaign before its official launch. The phone was able to generated that much, thanks to its unique features. Unihertz Atom is seen as an inspiration due to its small size and ruggedness. In terms of size wise, the smartphone measures only 97 x 45 x 18 mm and weighs just 108 grams.
Designed with a solid, rubberized black body, Unihertz Atom is capable of withstanding shock, vibrations and extreme temperatures. It sports a 2.45 inch display, with a screen resolution of 240 x 432 pixels and it is protected by Gorilla Glass. The phone is equipped with an octa-core MediaTek Helio P20 processor and runs on Android 8.1 Oreo operating system.
It has a 4GB worth of RAM, 64GB internal storage, but with no option for expandable. For its camera, the phone sports a 16 mega-pixels rear shooter and an 8 mega-pixels front facing camera. Battery wise, the Unihertz Atom packs a small 2000mAh battery capacity with no option for quick charge. The The World's Smallest 4G Rugged Phone as it is known, cost just about $249.99.


The threat of an anthrax outbreak should keep workers responsible for office-building ventilation systems on high alert, experts said yesterday.
"Air ventilation systems are a prime area of weakness in most office buildings because they're not inspected on a daily basis," said Chuck Speranzella, president of the Maryland-based EAI Corp., a company that trains hazardous-materials workers to deal with bioterrorism.
Speranzella said buildings should test their filtration systems daily, but warned that only a "very high grade" of the germ like the kind sent to U.S. Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle would be a cause for alarm.
"People should primarily be concerned about opening mail," he said.
City officials have checked the ventilation systems in building where anthrax spores – presumably sent by mail – have turned up.
These include 30 Rockefeller Plaza where one NBC employee tested positive and an ABC building on West 66th Street where the infant son of a news producer contracted the disease.
Officials feared that the spores that came in the mail might have been released into the air and spread through the ventilation system.
A test of ABC's air system come back negative yesterday, while tests of the ventilation systems at NBC and other media outlets, screened as a precaution, have not yet come back.
Dr. Leonard G. Horowitz, a public-health expert, said, "Buildings should look at ventilation systems as a precaution.
After anthrax was detected in the governor's city office at 633 Third Ave. yesterday, hazardous-materials experts using special swabs tested the ventilation systems there, as well as at City Hall and other city agencies as a precautionary measure.
"They're trying to anticipate areas that might become areas of concern," Mayor Giuliani said.


The Non-Profit Leadership Program at Minnesota State University, Mankato is a phenomenal multidisciplinary program that changes students' outlook on the community and enhances their professional opportunities in the non-profit sector.
Professor Kristi Rendahl, the director of the Non-Profit Leadership Program, whose has a lot of experience working in the non-profit sector for over 20 years, took on the program at the beginning of the academic year last fall.
"I hope to bring a global perspective to the program as I have worked both in the U.S. as well as overseas and feel a sense of accomplishment passing knowledge on to young minds," Rendahl said.
Rendahl sheds some more light on the program and how it is beneficial to students at MNSU.
The NPL Program has two foundational courses: NPL 273, Introduction to Non-Profit Leadership, which is a 3-credit course that is ideally the first course students would take. After that, there is NPL 473, Advanced Workshop in NPL, which is another 3-credit course.
The main departments that directly participate in the NPL Program include: Sociology, Urban Studies, Recreation Parks and Leisure Services, Gender and Women Studies, and Social Work. Rendahl states that in the NPL Program there are three categories of electives: Program Planning and Evaluation, Program Administration, and Financial Management and Development.
"The key difference between a certificate and a minor for undergraduates is that, for the certificate one would take one course from each category offered by different departments, and for the minor one would just add an additional course from any category," said Rendahl.
"The program can be completed online, however, this does not mean every course is offered online, thus it is important for students to plan ahead and make sure courses are available for them to take beforehand," Rendahl said.
Rendahl states that Non-Profit Leadership pairs superbly with several degrees and the program would without a doubt give students an added edge in the job market.
There will be a non-profit panel during the Career and Internship Day that will be available to students to acquire more information or ask any questions they may have on Feb. 13. This will take place in CSU 203 from 12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. Rendahl states that there will be several people with different educational backgrounds illustrating how numerous careers intersect with the non-profit sector, thus the event will be highly beneficial to students.
"The NPL Program has consistently grown over the years and interest is gradually growing among students to enroll in the program," Rendahl said.
Professor Rendahl is keen on making the NPL Program reputable at MNSU and is highly active in finding any missing links as well as improving the program wherever needed. Non-profits worldwide truly make significant impact everyday by serving their communities wholeheartedly and taking the NPL Program at MNSU would be an excellent stepping stone to any student to also become part of that trend.
