Since Yelp appear to hide bad reviews I thought I'd also post my review of Sendean here.
I dropped off a camera at Sendean for a repair quote. The camera would switch on but the lens wouldn't extend fully. The quote I got back was as much as the camera would have been worth in mint condition. When I declined they reduced the quote by a third, but I still didn't think it was worth it so I went to pick the camera up. The first time I arrived at the shop I was told that the camera was still in bits and that I'd have to come back the next day, which I did. However once I had got the camera home it wouldn't turn on any more at all (a strap lug was also missing). I called Sendean to discuss this and the guy's attitude was terrible. He first claimed that they hadn't even disassembled the camera. When I pointed out that I'd been told the camera was in bits the first time I'd come to collect it his attitude got even worse and he said "you started with a broken camera, and you've still got a broken camera." Unbelievable.

American Heritage Credit Union employees donated goods and supplies for Ukrainian refugees. Partnering with the Ukrainian National Women's League of America Inc., employees are providing support to civilians in Ukraine who have been displaced or injured.
Employees collected high-demand items such as first-aid supplies, outerwear, non-perishable foods, toiletries, diapers and baby formula and food.
American Heritage President and CEO Bruce K. Foulke also recently completed a humanitarian visit to Poland, which borders Ukraine and has seen a surge in refugees from Ukraine. In addition to delivering medical supplies to refugees, Foulke met with credit union leaders from Poland and Ukraine to identify opportunities to provide immediate monetary, logistics and equipment support to Ukrainian refugees, as well as longer-term programs to help restore economic development to Ukraine.
Established in 1925, the Ukrainian National Women's League of America is the longest-running and largest Ukrainian women's organization in the U.S. As a 501c3 organization, its mission is to promote and develop educational and cultural efforts and provide humanitarian assistance to Ukrainians worldwide.

'RRR' release date gets postponed due to closing of theatres
Mumbai: The makers of the upcoming magnum opus 'RRR' have postponed the film's release date due to the closing of theatres in many states across the country in view of increasing Covid-19 cases. Featuring a stellar cast including Alia Bhatt, Ajay Devgn, Jr. NTR and Ram Charan, the much-anticipated film was scheduled to release on January 7, 2022.
Taking to Twitter, the makers issued their official statement for the postponement, which read, "Inspite of our relentless efforts, some situations are beyond our control. As many Indian states are closing theatres, we are left with no choice but to ask you to hold on to your excitement. We promised to bring back The Glory of Indian Cinema, and at the right time, WE WILL." Further, they thanked all the fans for their love and support.
Keeping the best interests of all the involved parties in mind, we are forced to postpone our film. Our sincere thanks to all the fans and audience for their unconditional love. #RRRPostponed #RRRMovie pic.twitter.com/JlYsgNwpUO

"Keeping the best interests of all the involved parties in mind, we are forced to postpone our film. Our sincere thanks to all the fans and audience for their unconditional love. #RRRPostponed #RRRMovie," the tweet read.
'RRR' was originally planned as a July 30, 2020 release. However, the unforeseen delays, including those caused by injuries suffered by Jr NTR and Ram during production, forced the makers to push the release date. The makers then pushed the release date to October 13, 2021, but due to the theatres not being fully functional, the makers postponed that date too.

The narrow two-lane Simón Bolívar International Bridge that connects the Venezuelan city of San Antonio with the neighbouring Colombian city of Cúcuta is, almost daily, packed with thousands of desperate Venezuelans trying to escape their collapsing country on foot.
Around one million have left for Colombia since 2015, according to the United Nations. They are fleeing a failed and corrupt political regime, a broken health system and a near-worthless currency – destroyed by an inflation rate that could reach one million per cent this year – that devours their wages.
But among those crowds are nefarious individuals seeking something entirely different: a more fruitful arena for their criminality. Common delinquents and members of some of Venezuela's most dangerous gangs are disguising themselves as migrants to leave the country and establish criminal franchises abroad.
Johnny, who agreed to speak on condition of anonymity, is part of this controversial group of migratory bandits. The 28-year-old grew up around a life of crime in the slums of west Caracas. His barrio is a place with narrow alleys, houses on top of one another and sewers that run through the middle of the street. He says he has been a criminal for more than 15 years. On his record are a list of serious crimes: robbing, kidnapping, drug dealing and, several murders.
Many of Johnny's friends have left for Colombia and now he is preparing to make the same journey to "give it a try" and earn a better living for himself illegally. Johnny claims he has other malandro, or thug, friends who "go straight" when they leave Venezuela. "But not me though," he says.
"I have been there [Colombia] several times. To cross the border is very easy. We used to go there for a couple of weeks to do 'little jobs' and then come back, but now I have decided to go indefinitely," he says.
The economic crisis created by Mr Maduro, the country's isolated and broke leader, has rendered the Venezuelan bolivar so worthless that he removed five zeros from the currency in August to simplify transactions. Ten bolivars now equal what was one million of the old currency.
In the Venezuela of former socialist president Hugo Chávez, rampant impunity and corruption laid the ground for the world's highest levels of violence and allowed all types of criminal activity to proliferate. Under the government of his successor Nicolás Maduro, the big Venezuelan mafias known as 'mega-bands' are finding trouble operating on their own territory.
For Venezuela's bandits, robbing a shop or money truck is now virtually pointless. The devaluation of the bolivar has left many ordinary people struggling to eat and drink, let alone afford expensive valuables.
The creation of state-backed paramilitary forces like the FAES, or Special Actions Force, which are accused by rights groups of extrajudicial killings, are increasing the dangers for gangsters involved in abductions, drug-dealing and other criminal activities.
"We used to kidnap rich people every three months and, with the ransom, we could live well for a couple of months. But right now this is too risky because they don't capture kidnappers, they kill them," says Johnny.
In Colombia, more than 3,400 Venezuelans have been detained for committing crimes from 2015 until June this year, mostly for muggings and thefts. Yet the exodus of Venezuela's criminals is not solely limited to Colombia, it also threatens a knock-on effect for other Latin American states.
Peruvian authorities recently captured five members of the so-called Tren de Aragua, one of the most brutal gangs in Venezuela, who were planning to rob a jewellery shop. In Chile, seven members of a Venezuelan gang dedicated to stealing luxury watches were captured in April. In Brazil's northernmost state, Roraima, where more than 120,000 Venezuelans have entered, crime has risen 132 per cent since 2015.
The exporting of bandits from Venezuela to surrounding nations will have a direct short and long-term impact on foreign policies towards the country and those who are genuinely trying to flee for a better life, Venezuelan lawyer and criminologist Luis Izquiel says.
The Venezuelan government continues to deny that it is exporting criminals across the continent, or that there is even a migration crisis, blaming "fake news" generated by the media to discredit Mr Maduro.
But, as Johnny finishes packing up his bags, he picks up his old shotgun, ready for his next life in Colombia.
"I wish I could take you with me," he sighs as he stares at the weapon.

So the last couple of winters the family has been hitting Kirkwood, since snowsports are where it's at in CA between late November and mid April. It's basically the perfect ski resort if you're at all serious about the outdoors - it offers a large amount of steep and complex terrain, very few lifts (and they're old and slow), it's remote enough that a lot of people can't be bothered going there, and it has consistently the most and best snow of the CA resorts. The "village" is also pretty ramshackle and gives zero fscks - the food is mediocre at best and the nearest Starbucks is almost an hour's drive away. In short, it's awesome and unashamed grunge!
As you may have heard, northern CA has finally broken the 5 year long drought with a vengeance, with a seemingly endless succession of storms hitting the state since November, and more expected before the "water year" officially ends in May. For Kirkwood, that means more than 15m of snow has already fallen, with a solid 10m of snow still on the ground as of early March. They've even permanently shut some of the lifts, since they're so buried at this point there's no way to dig them out before the season ends.
It just so happened that one of these storms struck during the kids "ski week" break back in February, and so we'd planned on being up there for the week anyway. The bad news was that the storm struck early in the week instead of before, and the main highway connecting Kirkwood to civilisation (both to the East and West) was shut for 4 days due to snow buildup and avalanche danger (they've had real trouble keeping it open this year, due to the massive amount of snowfall). Highway 88 finally opened on Thursday 23rd, and suffering from a fair bit of cabin fever we got up there early and managed to hit first chairs. Some of the kids' friends from school were also there, so we skied as a large group, enjoying the fresh snow that the storm had dropped, and finding fresh stashes here and there in the trees and chutes all day. It was already up there amongst the best days of riding I've ever had.
Now one of the famous runs at Kirkwood is a face called "Eagle Bowl", which drops steeply off the right side of a ridge beside "The Wall" (itself one of the best steep runs in CA). It has a habit of avalanching however, and often it'll remain shut for a day or two after a storm, just so they can get it under control before letting anyone in. This was the case this day, so we'd been doing laps of The Wall most of the afternoon, doing a bit of hiking to find untracked stashes, and generally having a great time. We were up the top again getting on towards closing time, when a ski patroller shouted out that he was about to open Eagle Bowl and might we be interested in joining him? Now it's pretty unusual to open a run that late in the day, especially mid-week, when they can save it for the bigger crowds of a Friday or weekend. But I'm not one to look a gift horse in the mouth, so I told the kids to follow the patroller as fast as they could.
The ski patroller opened it up just as we got there, and along with maybe 5 other people who'd been within earshot, we immediately took off down the steepest part of the face (skier's-right line, in the animation above), in a metre and a half of cold, dry, untracked, blower pow.
Now I'm not a religious person, but I'm pretty sure I had a religious experience on this run. To say it was AWESOME is like saying that Pauline Hanson is mildly bigoted. The 350m descent only took a minute or two, but it felt like forever. I could barely see most of the time, since the powder getting kicked up by the front of my board was lofted in the air and sprayed over my head. It felt like one of those dreams where you're flying effortlessly, but without the unpleasant ending when you crash into the floor and realise you've fallen out of bed and landed on the empty tinnies from the binge the night before.
Even the 30 minutes of postholing out of the valley at the base (normally they groom a trail into it, but they hadn't done that yet) didn't detract from it, and we ended up squeezing in two more laps of almost the same quality (despite it getting played quicker than Trump by Putin) before the lifts closed.
I wonder if it's too late to switch sports?
So U felt like my fiend simes when a girl says yes, huh?
This B4 tha judas experience of changed her mind.
>So U felt like my fiend simes when a girl says yes, huh?
It was the best feeling I've ever had in my life, but I'm not sure it comes close to simey's stratospheric level of ecstatic bliss when that happens.

Are you wondering how to clean a cast iron grill? One of the best reasons to purchase a grill made from cast iron is the fact that the tough metal is so durable. However, as with any type of grill, regular cleaning and proper maintenance is essential if you want to keep your outdoor cooking device looking good and functioning properly.
Understanding How to Clean a Cast Iron Grill
Unlike stainless grills that can easily become scratched and discolored if you use any type of abrasive cleaning product or surface on them, cast iron grills are very tough and resilient. Rather than trying to prevent scratches, the big challenge with taking care of a grill made from cast iron lies with preventing rust.
When you purchase a new cast iron grill, be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for how to season the item. As with cast iron pots and pans, the first step in keeping your cast iron grill from developing rust is to season it properly before using it.
If you purchased your grill used, you will be able to tell if it was properly cared for by the previous owner simply by looking at its condition. If there is significant rust build up on the grill, it's likely that it was not seasoned before being used initially or not did not receive proper care on a regular basis. However, it's not impossible to restore a rusty cast iron grill to proper working condition.
Removing Rust from a Cast Iron Grill
As long as the rust has not been allowed to build up to the point that it has eaten through the iron, you can probably remove it and extend the useful life of the grill. You can remove rust from cast iron in several different ways.
It's best to start with some type of abrasive cleaning tool when you are trying to get rust off any type of metal. Wire brushes and steel wool are good choices for cast iron. You can attack the rust build up with just an abrasive surface and your own muscle power or you can opt to utilize a cleaning solution to aid in your grill cleaning efforts.
If you like the idea of using a cleaning solution, consider trying one of these options:
Vinegar - Rub the rusty surface with plain white vinegar at full strength and allow it to sit for a few minutes. Once the vinegar starts to dissolve the rust, use your wire brush or steel wool to begin cleaning the affected area. Repeat until the rust is gone.
Baking Soda Paste - As an alternative to using vinegar, you can attempt to clean rust off cast iron grills and other metal surfaces using a thick paste make from baking soda and water. Apply the paste to the rust build-up and allow it to sit for a few hours. Then, scrub away the paste using an abrasive surface, repeating as necessary.
Salt Paste - If you need something more abrasive than baking soda or vinegar to remove the rust from your cast iron grill, make a thick paste of kosher salt and water. Apply it to the rusty area, then use steel wool or a wire brush to scrub away the rust. Repeat as necessary. For particularly stubborn rust, you may need to begin your cleaning efforts with a salt paste, but may find that you can switch to the less abrasive baking soda paste once the first few layers of rust have been removed.
Cleaning Cast Iron Grates
It's very important to clean and season the grates of your cast iron grill after each use. While the grill grates are still warm but after the fire is completely out, wipe them clean with a paper towels or a dish towel. If there are particles of food stuck on the grates, use a wire brush or a nylon sponge to scrub them away; then wipe the grill grates again to ensure they are clean and free from food build up.If the cooked on food is too stubborn to come off easily when you scrub the grates, create a cleaning paste by mixing kosher salt or baking soda with water. Apply the paste with a nylon sponge and scrub the area until it is free from stubborn build up.
Season Properly for Preventive Maintenance
Once you have removed the rust from your cast iron grill, take the time to season it by rubbing it down with a thin layer of vegetable oil. It's also important to keep your grill grates seasoned, coating them with oil after each cleaning. Repeat the seasoning process periodically to prevent rust build up from building up. Follow these tips for how to clean a cast iron grill and maintain it and you can expect many years of service from this inexpensive outdoor cooking tool.

When are clementines in season?
Written by: Kristen May

Clementines, a type of fruit thought to be a cross between mandarin oranges and regular sweet oranges, are popular snacks when they are in season. The miniature citrus fruit is known for its balance of tart and sweet taste, seedless interior and easy-to-peel skin.
Clementines are in season from approximately October through February. Clementines grown in the United States, mostly in California and Florida, are at the peak of their season in December and January. Spain and Morocco also export clementines to the United States throughout the winter.

Clementines grown in the United States, mostly in California and Florida, are at the peak of their season in December and January.
Clementines can be traditionally traced to Father Clement, an Algerian monk who lived in the early 1900s. It is believe that he crossed a mandarin orange and a sweet orange and began growing them. Some people believe that clementines were actually present in Asia far before then and made their way into Europe.
Clementines have a few other names because of their characteristics and seasonal nature. Some people refer to them as "Christmas oranges" because they are sold around Christmas time. Other people call them "zipper oranges" because they are easy to peel and their skin zips right off.

When I opened "X-O Manowar" #1 and saw the timeline and history lesson inside the front cover, a small part of me cringed. That part was the part of me that hated history in school and was thrilled when I realized I would never have to take a history class again. I decided to beat that part into submission and plow forward to see just what the timeline has to do with a book featuring an Iron Man knockoff.
That timeline is smart and clean, providing a nice tidy package that contains all of the background you need to get started on this adventure. Simply put (a little less cleanly and much more succinct than said timeline) there are Visigoths and Romans. The Romans are oppressing the Visigoths. The protagonist of "X-O Manowar" #1 is Aric, a Visigoth determined to make a stand for his people on the battlefield against the Romans.
Robert Venditti delivers a classic underdog struggle against oppressive forces and, just for fun, throws in an alien abduction sequence, which hits Aric and his comrades. Aric is a likeable character, fighting for a code others agree with but no one stands up for, either because they're too smart or too scared. Aric is a leader by example and his example seems to be in the greatest interest of his people. Vendetti's characters are believable and engaging, right down to the comment muttered underbreath as Aric leads a foolhardy charge into battle.
The art on the book from horses to invading hordes and swords to solar travel is meticulously crafted. Cary Nord and Stefano Gaudiano are a formidable force for artistic awesomeness; capable of rendering anything and everything in such a realistic manner that the story begs to be told through the imagery as much as through words. Nord's extremely detailed artwork sells the time period and makes the aliens seem real. The battles are violent and bloody in the fields of northern Italy and the alien spaceship scenes are sterile and cold. Moose Baumann fills the pages with nice atmospheric coloring, including nighttime scenes that actually seem like medieval night lit by only moon and stars.
If we don't learn from history, we are doomed to repeat it. With this latest attempt at "X-O Manowar," I'd say there's a whole lot of learning taking place. This first issue clocks in at almost thirty pages of story, told through dialog and action with minimal reliance on caption boxes of any sort. "X-O Manowar" is a thick comic book that provides a story certain to appeal to fans of everything from alien invasion stories to tales of medieval battles. As relaunches and reintroductions to comic book properties go, "X-O Manowar" is a great start.

Service industry workers unite! Shiftgig has a professional network just for you
On 2013-02-07 14:45:04
/ comments
Categories: Startup Stories
Expertise: Creative Entrepreneur Internet
LinkedIn may be the go-to networking service for executives, but one Chicago startup is emerging as a swiftly growing space for a largely untapped working demographic. With a focus on employees in the service industry, Shiftgig is looking to grab the valuable younger audience that LinkedIn and other professional networking sites have largely ignored.
Currently operating out of Catapult, Chicago's River North startup incubator, Shiftgig provides a space for service industry professionals to build an online reputation and connect with employers who will appreciate their experience. Shiftgig enables job seekers to stand out and easily share their work history, employment preferences, and even recommendations from past employers in a streamlined profile.
We talked with Shiftgig co-founder and CTO Sean Casey, who detailed how working as a caddie gave him the entrepreneurial drive he has today, the inspiration he finds in his family, and why he's happy he has yet to discover his personal kryptonite.
What's the backstory behind Shiftgig?
Jeff (Pieta) and I have known each other for a while and we were kind of looking for other things to do together. There was a lot of mutual respect between us and we wanted to find a way to work together.
Jeff and I have been working together for 10 years and were looking for something new to involve Eddie (Lou) in. I think Eddie was the first one to bring up the idea of Shiftgig or what it would become.
He saw a stat about LinkedIn usage in the younger demographic and why it was ignored. We started to look into that more and realized that this is an area that a lot of people do ignore. I don't know if it's something where businesses don't like or don't want to build something for this service industry community.
We had all done something in the service industry. I had worked in retail and Eddie and Jeff had both worked in food service. It was something that we'd had experience with and we looked at the solutions out there for this demographic, for this workforce, and it was really just Craigslist. There weren't many good jobs to find on any other site than that.
When did you know you wanted to be an entrepreneur?
I think it probably goes back to my first retail job and what that was like actually having a boss. I was probably 16 or 17, but before that I was a caddie at a couple of country clubs. You're kind of your own boss there; you have a caddie master but when you're a caddie you're somewhat of an independent contractor.
I started doing that when I was 13 and made some business cards so I could get repeat people and wanted to try to do things without sitting around. I quickly learned what it was like to have repeat customers, people that could get a hold of you and then you didn't have to sit around the caddie shack for hours, wasting your time.
I realized you could build up a business like that. It's always been something that's just been part of me.
Who are some people that inspire you?
This probably comes off as cheesy, but probably everyone in my immediate family. My parents are very hardworking middle class people that always tried to teach us the value of a dollar and what it's like to work hard and what you get out of that.
My sister's one of the hardest working people I know; she's in law school right now. My brother is one of the smartest people that I know. He's very intelligent, he's a captain in the military and that's something that inspires me.
Outside of family it'd be Elon Musk. He's a pretty young guy and he's shown that he can succeed in very different markets and business types: from banking with PayPal-type stuff to the automotive industry and space exploration. It seems like he's doing well in very different areas. I think I'd like to be able to one day live up to that diversity and success.
What tends to be your daily soundtrack around the office?
We're in Catapult so if you want to get development work done you need to have headphones because there's just so much going on and there are so many distractions. I have headphones that I wear whenever I'm digging in and doing development.
It's a broad range. It'll be top 40 on Pandora or on my iTunes I have a lot of things back from the high school days -- things like Alkaline Trio or Coheed & Cambria. It kind of depends on the mood and what I'm doing. I also have a thunderstorm track that I can put on repeat, which is just background thunderstorm and it's something that I enjoy.
If you could have one super power which would you choose? What is your kryptonite?
That's one of those questions where I never know how to answer. Strictly from a fun standpoint, I think it might be flying. I say flying because I love to travel and I love to be in other places, but I hate the process of traveling. I'm not afraid of airplanes, but I hate airports -- going through security and all that, so I'd have to say I would love flying just for the sake of travel.
Obviously everybody has kryptonite. I'm not sure what mine is. I wish I had an answer for you. It's one of those things where you don't know what your kryptonite is until you've been taken down and I've been fortunate enough to be successful so far.
What is your idea of happiness?
Being surrounded by good people. I'm very big on relationships and having those good people in your life, both with business and with family or friends. It's always important to have some good people around you and as long as you have that, for me, nothing else really matters.
I don't care what we do as long as the people I'm with are great people. That extends into business with the partners I have and the employees that we have. We're always working to build a team.
What does 2013 have in store for Shiftgig?
It's really just continuing growth. We still want to continue to make improvements and improve the experience that we have. We're starting to look towards monetization and growing out features around monetizing the site as we expand the user base and feel like we get to a point where we have the right size.

The Last Gasp of Climate Change Liberals
By Jamil Jonna|2019-05-16T18:18:55-07:00September 3rd, 2014|Categories: Articles|Tags: environmental rights|
By Chris Hedges (originally published at TruthDig on August 31, 2014)
The climate change march in New York on Sept. 21, expected to draw as many as 200,000 people, is one of the last gasps of conventional liberalism's response to the climate crisis. It will take place two days before the actual gathering of world leaders in New York called by U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to discuss the November 2015 U.N. Climate Conference in Paris. The marchers will dutifully follow the route laid down by the New York City police. They will leave Columbus Circle, on West 59th Street and Eighth Avenue, at 11:30 a.m. on a Sunday and conclude on 11th Avenue between West 34th and 38th streets. No one will reach the United Nations, which is located on the other side of Manhattan, on the East River beyond First Avenue—at least legally. There will be no speeches. There is no list of demands. It will be a climate-themed street fair.
The march, because its demands are amorphous, can be joined by anyone. This is intentional. But as activist Anne Petermann has pointed out, this also means some of the groups backing the march are little more than corporate fronts. The Climate Group, for example, which endorses the march, includes among its members and sponsors BP, China Mobile, Dow Chemical Co., Duke Energy, HSBC, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase and Greenstone. The Environmental Defense Fund, which says it "work[s] with companies rather than against them" and which is calling on its members to join the march, has funding from the oil and gas industry and supports fracking as a form of alternative energy. These faux environmental organizations are designed to neutralize resistance. And their presence exposes the march's failure to adopt a meaningful agenda or pose a genuine threat to power.
Our only hope comes from radical groups descending on New York to carry out direct action, including Global Climate Convergence and Popular Resistance. March if you want. But it should be the warm-up. The real fight will come once people disperse on 11th Avenue.
"The march is symbolic," said Kevin Zeese of Popular Resistance when I reached him by phone, "but we are past the time of symbolism. What we need is direct action against the United Nations during the meeting. This should include blockades and disruption of the meeting itself. We need to highlight the fact that the United Nations has sold out to corporate interests. At U.N. meetings on climate change you see corporate logos on display. During the last meeting on climate change in Poland, the U.N. held a simultaneous conference to promote coal as a clean energy source. These U.N. meetings have become corporate trade shows where discussions on climate are hijacked to promote corporate interests. Barack Obama has announced he will continue the U.S. stance of only calling for voluntary climate goals in advance of the upcoming climate summit in Paris next year."
The fossil fuel industry and corporations, from ExxonMobil to Koch Industries, underwrite political campaigns and author our legislation. They have stacked the courts with their judges and the airwaves with their apologists. They fund our scientific research and have effectively silenced dissidents. This corporate reach extends to the United Nations. Companies set up exhibition halls at U.N. climate summits promoting various corporate schemes to profit from the climate crisis, from "clean" coal and biofuel to nuclear power and carbon trading. Those who attempt to offer a counter narrative, especially after the disruptions at the climate summit in Copenhagen in 2009, are swiftly silenced by U.N. security. Fences and security barriers now ring heavily guarded U.N. climate conferences. Protesters are herded into police-controlled "free speech" zones outside—like the march in New York—and ruthlessly dealt with if they deviate from the approved routes or make their voices heard among the delegates. The U.N. security at climate summits, which includes physically removing journalists so they cannot photograph or document protests that are shut down by force, is so absolute that the U.N. demands preapproved wording for T-shirts worn at its gatherings. The elites, whether in Congress or attending U.N. summits, have no intention of cutting off their access to wealth, power and privilege. They know where the money is. They know what they have to do to get it. And we are not part of the equation.
Our democracy is an elaborate public relations charade. And the longer we accept this charade the longer we will be irrelevant. Only when we understand power can we fight it. This fight must be waged on two fronts. We must disrupt the machinery of corporate capitalism and at the same time build parallel, autonomous structures for self-governance that address basic needs such as food and green energy. Capitalism, as Karl Marx pointed out, is not merely a system of economic exploitation. It justifies itself by hijacking the ruling political and economic ideologies—ideologies that buttress capitalism's ceaseless expansion and commodification of the natural world and human beings. "The ruling ideas are nothing more than the ideal expression of the dominant material relationships," Marx wrote, "the dominant material relationships grasped as ideas." And this makes our struggle a battle for ideas as well as a battle for power.
This is not a battle I would have picked. I prefer incremental and piecemeal reform. I prefer a system in which we can elect politicians to represent the governed and thwart corporate abuse. I prefer a United Nations that serves the interests of people around the globe rather than corporate profit. I prefer a vigorous and free debate in the public arena. I prefer a judiciary that is not a wholly owned subsidiary of the corporate state. I prefer the freedom to express dissent without government monitoring of my communications and control of my movements. I prefer to have my basic civil liberties protected. But we do not live in such a system.


This afternoon I caught up with Mark who was visiting Jeremy. He got back yesterday morning from a month of training in Argentina.
I thought "what a perfect time to feature this photo which is another of my favourites". Those who know Mark and Carolina well will know how much they've missed each other while he's been away and this photo tells more than a thousand words could express. In my eyes, and I hope yours too, it is beautiful.
It was taken while they were queued up waiting to receive their medals at the 2007 World Champs in Quebec. I snuck this shot with my telephoto lens from a distance while they were quietly engrossed in the moment.

Thousands of Chinese immigrants were employed by the railroads to do the toughest work.

Martin Kelly, M.A., is a history teacher and curriculum developer. He is the author of "The Everything American Presidents Book" and "Colonial Life: Government."
The Transcontinental Railroad was a dream of a country set on the concept of Manifest Destiny. In 1869, the dream was made a reality at Promontory Point, Utah with the connection of two railway lines. The Union Pacific began construction of their rail in Omaha, Nebraska working toward the west. The Central Pacific began in Sacramento, California working toward the East. The Transcontinental Railroad was a vision of a country but was put into practice by the "Big Four": Collis P. Huntington, Charles Cocker, Leland Stanford, and Mark Hopkins.
Benefits of the Transcontinental Railroad
The benefits of this railroad were enormous for the country and the businesses involved. The railroad companies received between 16,000 and 48,000 per mile of track in land grants and subsidies. The nation gained a quick passage from east to west. A trek that used to take four to six months could be accomplished in six days. However, this great American accomplishment could not have been achieved without the extraordinary effort of Chinese-Americans. The Central Pacific realized the enormous task ahead of them in the construction of the railroad. They had to cross the Sierra Mountains with an incline of 7,000 feet over only a 100-mile span. The only solution to the daunting task was a great deal of manpower, which quickly turned out to be in short supply.
Chinese-Americans and the Building of the Railroad
The Central Pacific turned to the Chinese-American community as a source of labor. In the beginning, many questioned the ability of these men that averaged 4' 10" and only weighed 120 lbs. to do the work necessary. However, their hard work and abilities quickly allayed any fears. In fact, at the time of completion, the vast majority of workers from the Central Pacific were Chinese. The Chinese worked under grueling and treacherous conditions for less money than their white counterparts. In fact, while the white workers were given their monthly salary (about $35) and food and shelter, the Chinese immigrants received only their salary (about $26-35). They had to provide their own food and tents. The railroad workers blasted and scraped their way through the Sierra Mountains at great risk to their lives. They used dynamite and hand tools while hanging over the sides of cliffs and mountains.
Unfortunately, the blasting was not the only detriment they had to overcome. The workers had to endure the extreme cold of the mountain and then the extreme heat of the desert. These men deserve a great deal of credit for accomplishing a task many believed impossible. They were recognized at the end of the arduous task with the honor of laying the last rail. However, this small token of esteem paled in comparison to the accomplishment and the future ills they were about to receive.
Prejudice Increased After the Completion of the Railroad
There had always been a great deal of prejudice towards the Chinese-Americans but after the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad, it only became worse. This prejudice came to a crescendo in the form of the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, which suspended immigration for ten years. Over the next decade, it was passed again and eventually, the Act was renewed indefinitely in 1902, thus suspending Chinese immigration. Furthermore, California enacted numerous discriminatory laws including special taxes and segregation. Praise for the Chinese-Americans is long overdue. The government over the last couple of decades is beginning to recognize the significant achievements of this important segment of the American population. These Chinese-Americans railroad workers helped to fulfill the dream of a nation and were integral in the improvement of America. Their skill and perseverance deserve to be recognized as an accomplishment that changed a nation.

A Simple Guide to Intel Rapid Storage Technology
Intel RST lets you enhance your storage devices' performance, speed and security.
Harris S
ComputingFeatured
Technology has taken leaps and bounds in the last few years. With this rapid advancement, there has been an increased demand for computer systems that can take on heavy workloads and have enough storage space.
But such computers can be pretty expensive, and not everyone can afford them. Enter Intel Rapid Storage Technology!
Intel Rapid Storage Technology is one of the latest technologies that lets users enjoy better storage capabilities with limited budgets. Let us explain how!
What is Intel Rapid Storage Technology?
Features of Intel RST
RAID Technology
Intel Smart Response Technology
Multiple Command Support
How To Install Intel RST?
Partition The Disk Space
Intel Rapid Storage Technology (RST) is a program created by Intel that improves the performance and speed of data storage devices in computers and servers. With this technology, you can boost the storage capabilities of your devices with one or more SATA disk drives.
Intel launched this technology to provide users with better performance and security at economical prices. The technology has a very intelligent system that aids Windows systems with frequent data storage problems and failures. In the event of a crash or drive failure, Intel RST provides better data loss protection.
Here are a few features of the Intel Rapid Storage Technology:
This is a very beneficial feature for people who don't back up their data and risk data loss if their drives crash. Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) is a system in which multiple disks operate together to enhance performance and reduce response times. Intel RST supports RAID in four levels;
Level 0: Distributes files across two storage devices.
Level 1: Copies data on both storage devices.
Level 5: Distributes files across three to sixteen storage devices.
Level 10: Distributes and copies files across multiple storage devices (Combines Level 0 and 1).
Every RAID level provides a different level of data protection, and performance enhancement and users can choose which they need according to their system specifications.
One of the most important features of Intel RST, the Smart Response Technology, saves all of your most used applications and files in the SSD with the highest performance. By doing so, it'll become much easier and faster for your computer to access these files. This improves the performance and speed of your personal computer. SSDs are originally faster than other storage devices.
With some of your most heavy files and programs stored in the SSD, Smart Response Technology frees up space on your other storage devices. It allows you to use a small-scale SSD coupled with high-capacity HDDs. High-capacity SDDs are quite expensive, so Smart Response Technology also helps you build a budget-friendly computer.
This feature allows storage disk drives to access and carry out more than one command simultaneously. This is also one of Intel RST's important features. While Smart Response Technology benefits SSDs, Multiple Command Support works best for HDDs. This does not mean it isn't beneficial for SSDs too.
For this feature to work, commands must use Native Command Queuing. This is part of a command protocol that enables drives to dictate in which order read and write commands are carried out. Read here means to open files, while write means to save files.
Multiple Command Support and NCQ allow computers to reduce HDD spinning. By reducing the unnecessary spinning of rotating parts in HDDs, performance is boosted, and noise is reduced during operation.
Most of the latest computers come with Intel Rapid Storage Technology already installed. But if your laptop or desktop doesn't have it already, we would advise you to install Intel RST drivers to improve your system's overall performance.
Before you do, check whether your system meets the following requirements:
Internal Storage: More than 2.2 TB
Operating System: Windows 7 or above
Intel Processor: i7 and i5 (3rd Generation and above)
Follow these steps if you have an Intel Visual BIOS:
Reboot your computer.
Press F2 during Reboot.
Click Advanced Setup from the menu.
Go to Power settings.
Check the Intel Rapid Storage Technology box.
Set the Hibernation Timer to Immediately.
Save the new settings with the F10 key.
Take the following steps if you don't have Intel Visual BIOS:
Scroll down to the Power option.
Set Hibernation to Immediately.
Now that you've enabled Intel Rapid Storage Technology, it's time to separate the disk space and create smaller storage spaces. We would recommend getting a professional to do this for you since it's quite a technical step.
Access the Command Prompt by typing cmd.exe in the search bar and right-clicking on the option, and selecting Run as Administrator.
Type diskpart.exe in the Command Prompt and press Enter. Scroll to the Diskpart command and enter the following prompts;
DISKPART> select disk X (X will be the disk where you want to partition)
DISKPART> create partition primary size=Y (Y refers to the partition size in megabytes)
DISKPART> detail disk.
DISKPART> select volume Z (Z is the volume you want to create partitions for)
DISKPART> set id=84 override
DISKPART> exit
After following all the above commands, type exit to close the prompt. Then reboot your computer.
Lastly, download the Intel Rapid Storage Technology from Intel's official website. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the drivers.
Intel Rapid Storage Technology is one of the most innovative technologies that has improved performance, speed and storage capabilities for our computers. With such technology, users can rest assured that their files are protected, and they won't lose any bit of data during device failures and crashes.
It has technical workers with disk-heavy workloads to work seamlessly without any delays or performance issues. We've covered all aspects of this technology and hope it serves as a helpful guide for you.

Guelph, ON, September 4, 2015—The City of Guelph is asking for community feedback on proposed designs for Niska Road and the bridge over the Speed River. A drop-in style open house will be held from 5 to7 p.m. on Thursday, September 10 in the Kortright Presbyterian Church gymnasium at 55 Devere Drive. City Staff and consultants from R.J. Burnside and Associates Limited will be on hand to answer questions and speak with community members.
"We'll share the results of environmental studies and the design concepts we evaluated, and discuss the preferred designs for Niska Road, the bridge and the intersection at Downey Road," noted Don Kudo, Deputy City Engineer. "We hope people from the local community and beyond will come out and join us."
Segments of Niska Road including the bridge will be improved to meet current road standards and address deterioration and increasing maintenance costs of the bridge. The bridge underwent repairs in late April to keep it in service while the City continued the environmental assessment for a permanent solution.
The first open house, held in November 2014, collected public feedback on the proposed alternatives for the road and bridge. Feedback was also collected through an online survey and meetings with a Community Working Group that included several members from the local neighbourhood. Results from all methods of feedback were combined for evaluation.
Of the options presented for the road:
47 per cent of respondents supported road reconstruction;
40 per cent supported a do–nothing approach for the road; and
13 per cent were in favour of repaving.
Of the options presented for the bridge:
34 per cent supported a new, two–lane bridge
25 per cent agreed with a do–nothing approach for the bridge
20 per cent wanted the bridge closed to vehicular traffic
18 per cent preferred replacing the existing bridge with a new, one–lane bridge; and
three per cent wanted the bridge removed.
Due to the condition of the bridge, the do–nothing approach is not a viable option for consideration. Do–nothing options are always presented as part of environmental assessments.
"Guelph is a growing and vibrant city that needs a modern, efficient transportation network to ensure people's safety when walking, cycling and driving," said Kudo. "As Guelph's transportation network grows, people will see changes in their neighbourhood. These changes are an inevitable part of planning, and building a growing, thriving community."

When YouTube co-founder Jawed Karim uploaded that first video of Me at the Zoo in 2005 it was hard to imagine what the video sharing site launched under the slogan "broadcast yourself" might become.
These days, A-list celebrities like Will Smith and professional athletes like Golden State Warriors standout Kevin Durant use YouTube to afford intimate if controlled glimpses of their private lives, even as not-ready-for-mainstream players like gamer Mark Fischbach (better known as Markiplier) or beauty guru Michelle Phan rake in millions.
YouTube has fundamentally transformed the media landscape. It democratized video creation and distribution, providing a platform where anyone with a camera, an internet connection and a passion for storytelling can reach a global audience. It gave rise to a whole new creative class of influencers, who were able to bypass the entertainment industry's gatekeepers and tastemakers.
YouTube Celebrates Scale But Vows Responsibility:
And its reach is, in a word, enormous. Some 1.5 billion users around the world log in every month, binging on 1 billion hours of video a day. Their viewing choices are virtually endless. 400 hours of video is uploaded every minute, or about 100,000 years' worth of content.
But its rise as a global video powerhouse has not been without controvery. The site blocked an extremist American cleric's messages in 2017 following a spate of domestic terror attacks and faced with mounting pressure from governments and counterterrorism advocates to crack down on jihadist propaganda videos. And some of YouTube's self-made stars, like Felix 'PewDiePie' Kjellberg and Logan Paul, have caused outrage with their unfiltered uploads.
In an effort to assuage worried advertisers, YouTube updated its guidelines, tightening its policies about what content can appear on the site and applying stricter criteria to which channels and videos would be eligible for advertising. It also announced it was stepping up enforcement. CEO Susan Wojcicki said YouTube would invest in machine-learning technology to train its algorithms to recognize and take down videos that violate its polices, and hire 10,000 people this year to work alongside the machines, to fine-tune the review process.
YouTube's more aggressive stance about policing the site has translated to less money for some, provoking protests within the legions of amateur video bloggers and personalities who populate the site. That dismay erupted in a tragic display in early April, when a woman angered by what she viewed as censorship of her workout videos traveled to YouTube's Northern California headquarters with a gun and injured three people before killing herself.
Robert Kyncl, YouTube's chief business officer says the last 12 months have forced YouTube to focus on the "four freedoms" that are core to the platform: freedom of expression, freedom of information, freedom of opportunity and freedom to belong. "We know what we mean for the world because of those four freedoms, and we want to makes sure we uphold them—but uphold them responsibly."
Kyncl says YouTube has been gradually laying the infrastructure to manage the unprecedented scale, like a boomtown racing to prop up its services to care for a rapidly growing population. "What you've seen over the last 12 months is, some things were ahead of us. We did not have the infrastructure fully in place yet," Kyncl says. "I think that today we are better prepared than anyone because we have spent so much time on it and invested so much into it."

Where Is Your Highest Risk Point For Stall-Spin Accidents?
By Colin Cutler
Nobody thinks it will happen to them. But before you know it, there you are. Low, slow, and approaching a stall.
And how well you react in those few seconds makes all the difference in the world. Often times, it's the difference between a safe recovery and a fatal crash.
Where Do Stall-Spin Accidents Happen The Most?
The Air Safety Foundation conducted a study of 450 stall-spin accidents from 1993 to 2001 to see where they happened, and how they compared to other types of accidents. And to keep the focus on GA, they only looked at accidents where aircraft weighed less than 12,500 pounds.
So where did the accidents happen? At least 80% of them started from an altitude of less than 1000' AGL. What's the significance of 1000' AGL? It's the traffic pattern altitude at most airports.
That brings up the major problem with stall-spin accidents down low. The altitude loss in a stall recovery for most GA aircraft is estimated to be 100-350 feet. Which, in many cases, gives you enough room to recover from a stall in the pattern.
But spins are a whole different animal. In the 1970s, NASA studied altitude loss in spins of several aircraft, one of which was the Piper Arrow.
What they found was eye-opening. The Arrow had an average loss of 1,160' in spin entry through recovery. And, keep in mind, that's in an aircraft flown by a test pilot.
It doesn't take a math genius to figure out the problem here. If you're flying a 1,000' AGL traffic pattern and you get yourself into a spin, you're not going to have enough altitude to recover, no matter how quick your reaction, or your recovery technique.
Who Do Stall-Spin Accidents Happen To?
"But this would never happen to me." The thought has probably already crossed your mind. So who are these stall-spin accidents happening to?
According to the ASF study, student pilots and ATPs were the least likely pilots to have a stall-spin accident. That leaves the majority of stall-spin accidents to private and commercial pilots.
It makes sense that the most experienced pilots, ATPs, are some of the least likely to get themselves into a scenario like this. But student pilots? They have the least flight time and experience. This study, and many like it, propose that students are still under enough supervision, and are still cautious enough, to keep themselves away from a stall-spin scenario.
But private and commercial pilots like you and me (which are the vast majority of GA pilots) are the prime candidate for a stall-spin accident.
There are a lot of reasons that could be the case. Lack of proficiency and complacency are two of the leading factors. (When's the last time you practiced stalls, or better yet, turning stalls?)
What's Being Done To Prevent Stall-Spins?
So what's being done to help prevent stall-spin accidents? The FAA's rules for slow flight in the ACS are a clue.
In the old Private Pilot PTS, slow flight was performed at "an airspeed at which any further increase in angle of attack, increase in load factor, or reduction in power would result in an immediate stall".
So in the old way of doing things, you would ride the stall warning horn and aircraft buffet throughout the maneuver.
Now, with the ACS, things have changed.
According to the ACS for slow flight, you now need to "Establish and maintain an airspeed at which any further increase in angle of attack, increase in load factor, or reduction in power, would result in a stall warning (e.g., aircraft buffet, stall horn, etc.)."
And here's how the FAA suggests pilots set up the maneuver:
One way to set up for the maneuver is to slow the airplane to the stall warning in the desired configuration and note the airspeed. Next, reduce the pitch or AOA slightly and eliminate the stall warning indication, adjust power to maintain altitude, and note the airspeed required to perform the slow flight maneuver in accordance with the standard. For example, the pilot may first note the stall warning indication at 50 knots. A slight pitch down to eliminate the stall warning, while adjusting the power to maintain altitude, might then cause the airspeed to increase to 52 knots. That 52 knot airspeed would be the base airspeed to perform the slow flight maneuver. The pilot can adjust pitch and power as necessary during the maneuver to stay within the ACS airspeed standard without the stall warning indication. By setting up the maneuver this way, the pilot can achieve similar AOA for the maneuver, regardless of weight or density altitude, and meet the objectives of the slow flight task. If a stall warning occurs while maneuvering in slow flight, the expectation is the pilot will take the appropriate action to correct it.
So why the change?
The FAA recently said this: "The FAA does not advocate disregarding a stall warning while maneuvering an airplane. With the exception of performing a thoroughly briefed full-stall maneuver, a pilot should always perform the stall-recovery procedure when a stall warning is activated."
The FAA clearly doesn't want pilots to be complacent about the stall warning horn. By changing the maneuver, their hope is that the stall warning horn will be as ear-piercing as ever, grabbing your attention as you approach a stall. In addition to that, there have been cases of student-instructor training accidents that resulted from slow flight. By speeding up the maneuver, the FAA is, in theory, making the training environment safer.
Only time will tell if the change is effective.
Staying Alert, Especially Down Low
This, like most things in aviation, always comes back to the basics.
There's no substitute for flight proficiency. And when things start to fall apart in the pattern, going around and giving yourself another chance is almost always the best option.
So the next time you're flying, climb up to altitude and practice some stalls and slow flight. And if it's been a long time since you've done either, grab an instructor so they can give you feedback on how you did.
A little practice and proficiency can go a long way. And it can keep you reading about accident studies like this, instead of becoming one of the NTSB's statistics.

Jubilee United Church is an Affirming Ministry, offering welcome and companionship to all people regardless of sexual orientation or designation.
In celebration of Earth Day, the Jubilee Community is planning a whole week of eco-focused events for the congregation and wider neighbourhood.
Jubilee United Church was created by the coming together of Bethesda, Donminster and Victoria Village, and most recently, St. John's United Churches. Embracing the gifts of these congregations and the many individuals who have joined our community since 2000, we continue to grow. We acknowledge the sacred land upon which Jubilee United Church stands. People have been on this land for 15,000 years. This land is the territory of the Huron-Wendat and Petun First Nations, the Seneca and most recently, the Mississaugas of the Credit River. The territory was the subject of the "Dish with One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant", an agreement between the Iroquois Confederacy and Confederacy of the Ojibwe and allied nations to peaceably share and care for the resources around the Great Lakes.
MARK YOUR CALENDARS! OUR ANNUAL GARAGE SALE IS COMING UP MAY 4, 8:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m.!
It's time to start thinking about the Garage Sale. This is a great opportunity to move along things no longer needed, and to pick up items at a great price! All proceeds support the many programs and events offered here at Jubilee! Click here for more details!
As of July 1, 2017, Jubilee United Church and St. John's United Church are amalgamated – we became a single congregation.

We are very excited about our future together.
What that means is that we are recognized and take responsibility for inviting, welcoming, and including all people who want to experience the love of God and ministry of Jesus Christ as expressed in our community – regardless of sexual orientation or designation. We take on, as a ministry, the care and comfort of those marginalized and victimized by others for their identity as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, or Transgendered (LGBT) people. As much as it is about LGBT people, it is about a wider diversity as well. It is about inviting, welcoming, and including those who feel left out because of age, culture, or perceived / experienced abilities. Becoming an Affirming Ministry is a celebration and commitment to embrace diversity intentionally, graciously, and compassionately – the way that Jesus did.
With your help, we will continue to be a loving, inclusive and responsible community.

Mind/Witness: Barred arts therapist can practice as counsellor
By Daniel Lombard on June 3, 2009 in Fitness to practise, Inspection and regulation, Mental Health
Charities have called for the closure of a regulatory loophole which would allow an arts therapist struck off this week to practice as a psychotherapist or counsellor.
Mind and Witness said the two groups needed to be subject to compulsory registration to protect the public from abusive practitioners, following the case of Derek Gale.
Therapist free to switch job title
Gale, 59, from Loughton, Essex, was removed from the arts therapists' register by regulator the Health Professions Council for repeatedly crossing professional boundaries with clients.
A HPC conduct and competence committee found Gale smoked cannabis in front of clients, swore at them and also discussed sexual activity during sessions. He admitted taking one female service user on holiday on four occasions but explained it was part of her "therapy".
However, under the current regulatory framework, Gale remains free to practise as a psychotherapist or counsellor despite being banned from working as an arts therapist.
Government signals tighter regulation
Among mental health professionals, the HPC regulates arts therapists and the General Medical Council psychiatrists.
The Department of Health announced plans to extend regulation, under the HPC, to psychologists, psychotherapists and counsellors in a 2007 white paper on the regulation of health professionals.
Since then, legislation has been brought in to regulate psychologists, with the HPC due to open its register to the profession on 1 July. A professional liaison group has been set up to consider regulation of psychotherapists and counsellors and the HPC has said that it anticipates regulation being extended to these groups in 2011.
Campaigners urge action
Mind, the mental health charity, and Witness, which campaigns against abusive practice in health and social care, urged the government to press ahead with the plans.
In a joint statement, Mind chief executive Paul Farmer and his counterpart at Witness, Jonathan Coe, said: "At the moment, anyone can call themselves a psychotherapist or counsellor and begin treating patients without any formal training, or sticking to any code of conduct whatsoever.
"Derek Gale has been legally banned from practising as an arts therapist yet under current rules, there is nothing to stop him from continuing practicing as a counsellor or psychotherapist."
National talking therapies programme
Their campaign coincides with the government's talking therapies programme, worth £100m in 2009-10 and £170m next year, which is designed to widen access to counselling for people with anxiety and depression across England.
However, a group of therapists led by psychoanalyst Darian Leader is opposing the move towards tighter regulation.
The Coalition Against Over-Regulation of Psychotherapy, which includes high-profile supporters such as Tracey Emin and Hanif Kureishi, says registration would "destroy the growth and vitality" of individualised therapy.
A DH spokesperson said: "Psychotherapists and counsellors are amongst the priority groups for the introduction of statutory regulation, because what they do can impact significantly on patients and the public. Regulation should not interfere with innovation or restrict patient choice. It is designed to provide assurance of the quality of care that people have a right to receive."
