As a Paralegal at the Quiroga Law Office, PLLC, Austin Roberts works closely with the attorneys and paralegals.
He joined the staff in June 2015, having returned to his native Spokane in January. Previously he lived in Texas, where he excelled in academics and sports. He was, among other accomplishments, a National Merit Scholarship finalist and a varsity soccer player who attained the Academic All-District list over three years — with the highest GPA in the district.
Austin's work at the firm should help prepare him for a career in law, his goal, following in the footsteps of his mother and step-father, Casey and Hector Quiroga. He is particularly interested in constitutional law, which he sees as the most efficient and effective path to change. He hopes to advocate for individual liberties/rights, immigration reform, and reform in the nation's police and prison systems.
In his free time, Austin enjoys backpacking and camping, motocross, and reading, especially fantasy and nonfiction.
An avid outdoorsman, he especially enjoys Mount Rainier and the Olympic National Forest in western Washington as well as exploring the Spokane area. For camping, he prefers stringing a hammock between two trees to sleeping in a tent. He spends as much time on the trail as possible.
He enjoys motorcross biking, as well, and is a skilled bike mechanic, even rebuilding engines.
His favorite books include J.R.R. Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" series and George R. R. Martin's "Game of Thrones" books. A favorite non-fiction read is "Man's Search for Meaning" by Dr. Victor Frankl, a memoir of the author's experiences being interned in a concentration camp during World War II.
"It's amazing what people can survive and endure," he says.
Austin plans to attend Spokane Community College at night, then to transfer to Gonzaga University, where he hopes eventually to enroll in law school.

Galilee excavation unearths significant discoveries
A BYU professor and a recent BYU graduate helped uncover a unique pair of mosaics at a synagogue excavation in Galilee.
The mosaics decorate the floor of a fifth-century synagogue in the ancient village of Huqoq in Israel's Lower Galilee. One of these mosaics depicts Samson carrying the gates of Gaza, and it comes one year after a separate Samson mosaic was uncovered at the same location.
Assistant professor Mathew Grey from the department of ancient scripture, who supervised the excavation of the synagogue area, explained that these discoveries are changing the way scholars think about ancient Jewish art and synagogue worship.
"This is helping us to better understand which stories from the Bible were catching their attention and which stories they were incorporating into their synagogue worship," Grey said. "What we're finding out is that Jewish communities near the northwest shore of the Sea of Galilee had strong interest in the Samson story."
Only one other known synagogue in Israel has any artwork depicting the Samson story. The Wadi Hamam synagogue located a few miles to the south of Huqoq has a mosaic depicting the Biblical story of Samson killing Philistines with the jawbone of a donkey.

"The discovery of two Samson scenes in the Huqoq synagogue suggests that it was decorated with a Samson cycle — the first such cycle known in Israel. A cycle is a series of scenes about Samson, in which different episodes relating to Samson are depicted," Jodi Magness, director of the Huqoq excavation, explained.
The other mosaic discovered this year may depict a story from The Book of the Maccabees. According to Magness, if this is confirmed, this will be the first known Apocryphal story decorating a Jewish synagogue.
When it comes to uncovering the mosaics, Grey explained that it is a slow process.
"It took us one full season just to get down to the level of the synagogue," Grey said. He also explained that the first mosaic wasn't found until halfway through the second season.
After finding the mosaic, the excavation team called in someone who specializes in the conservation and preservation of delicate, ancient materials.
"We then watched her uncover the mosaic," Grey said. "We saw the inscription unfold and we saw the Samson scene."
Grey continued, "It's a very slow process, but it's very exciting to stand and watch this piece of ancient art be uncovered, and view something that no one has seen for over 1,000 years."
BYU graduate Bryan Bozung discovered the original Samson mosaic at Huqoq as a first-time student volunteer last summer. Bozung, who is still in Israel studying Hebrew, explained in an email what it was like to return and continue the excavation in hopes of finding something new.
"We pretty much proceeded with excavations as usual, peeling back layers of earth a few centimeters at a time until we discovered the mosaic," Bozung said. "At that point, things really slowed down and a prominent Israeli conservator, Orna Cohen, took the lead in very carefully exposing the 1,500-year-old mosaic."
Even though it's a slow process, Bozung said it's still exciting to participating in the excavation.
"I feel especially lucky that I have been closely involved two years in a row," Bozung said. "It really is incredible to uncover these ancient mosaics, and I am continually astounded by the fine craftsmanship exhibited by their construction."
The mosaics have been removed from the site for conservation and the extracted areas have been backfilled. Excavations are scheduled to continue in summer 2014.

Luigi Cherubini is a well-known name, especially because of his regularly-performed opera Médée, and probably also on account of his Requiem. He played an important role in music history, particularly in the field of opera where he is the link between the opera seria of the 18th century and the opera of the romantic era. In France he was one of the most significant personalities in music life around 1800. Under his direction the Conservatoire (1822-1842) developed into an institution of European reputation.
Cherubini was born in Florence and received his first musical education from his father. As a teenager he already composed pieces in genres which were to become the main part of his oeuvre: sacred music and music for the theatre. A crucial role in his development as a composer was played by Giuseppe Sarti, one of Italy's most prominent opera composers. In the early 1780s Cherubini wrote several operas which were performed in various cities, such as Florence, Venice and Rome. In Florence he met a wealthy English patron who negotiated posts for the King's Theatre in London. Cherubini was contracted and arrived in London in 1784. His stay lasted only two years. In 1786 his opera Il Giulio Sabino was badly received and performed only once. Cherubini left England for Paris where he had already established contacts with his fellow Italian Giovanni Battista Viotti who was responsible for the performance of Cherubini's music at the Concert Spirituel.
In France he regularly composed operas and arias to be inserted in operas by other composers. The present disc includes specimens of a lesser-known part of his oeuvre: the solo cantata. They are all on traditional subjects from antique mythology, but have little in common with the traditional chamber cantata. These are a kind of pocket-size opera, with accompanied recitatives and a singer who is supported by a full-blown orchestra.
In 1786 Cherubini joined the masonic Loge Olympique, and for this occasion composed Amphion. However, it was never performed. Christine Siegert, in her liner-notes, states that "[with] its main themes, the uncertainty of human existence and a demonstration of ways in which the conditions of this existence might be changed, the text contains certain pre-revolutionary traits, which might be a reason why the piece was never performed". I doubt this; the text seems pretty harmless and I wonder how many readers at the time might have detected any political connotations. The author of the text was Honoré Gabriel Riqueti, comte de Mirabeau, generally known as Mirabeau. In the 1780s he wrote several books and pamphlets in which he criticised aspects of French politics and society. It is imaginable that the very fact that he was the author of the text of Amphion was reason enough not to perform it. In this cantata the tenor who sings the role of Amphion is joined by a choir. It opens with a substantial overture.
The fate of Circé was different: it was performed at the Loge Olympique in 1789. After a short introduction the soloist sings a recitive and an aria, followed by another recitative. After an 'interlude' the piece closes with another recitative and aria. The text was written by Jean-Baptiste Rousseau (1670-1741) and that explains why it is more like the French chamber cantatas as they were written in the first decades of the century. The soloist has two roles: in the recitatives she acts as a narrator, and in the arias she plays the role of Circe. The last aria carries the moral of the piece. Cherubini didn't set the whole text; the parts which he omitted are between brackets in the booklet, although the marking is a little imprecise. The scoring for a low voice, sung here by a contralto, is interesting. Christine Siegert suggests that an hautecontre would also be a possibility. I am not sure about that: the recitatives could be sung by a man, but the arias probably not, considering that a man singing the role of a woman was not common in France.
Cherubini embraced the French Revolution and composed a number of pieces expressing the ideas on which it was founded. The above-mentioned Mirabeau became president of the National Assembly in 1791. He died that same year, apparently of natural causes, but there was an immediate suspicion of murder. The playwright Jean-Baptiste Pujoulx wrote La Mort de Mirabeau for which Cherubini composed three choruses as incidental music. The first two express hope: "O heaven, our only hope, (...) save a great man for France, preserve the people's defender". The third chorus expresses the sadness about Mireabeau's decease which is announced by two narrators with the names of Cabanis and La Mark.
The programme opens with the cantata Clytemnestre which dates from 1794 and was written for "madame B., du Havre". It is about Clytemnestra first looking forward to her daughter Iphigenia marrying Achilles, but then finding out that Iphigenia is going to be sacrificed to the goddess Artemis. "The cantata (...) reflects the peak of the reign of terror during the French Revolution, which is expressed in the vision of Iphigenia's decapitation in particular, but is also delineated in the depiction of the family" (booklet).
Cherubini may be a well-known composer but only a small part of his large oeuvre has been explored. One wonders why, considering the fame of his opera Médée. It is probably his composing of 'revolutionary' music which has damaged his reputation. Another factor could be that he was - depending on one's own views - either very flexible or opportunistic: in 1796 he conducted music for the celebration of the beheading of Louis XVI, and in 1817 he wrote the Requiem in c minor for his memorial service.
Michael Alexander Willens has done us a great favour by recording four works which are hardly known, if at all. The booklet carries no claims that these are first recordings. Even if they are not, this disc is of major importance. These cantatas confirm Cherubini's dramatic instincts: within a relatively short space of time he manages to create a large amount of tension. Another important element is the orchestral writing: Beethoven considered Cherubini the greatest composer of his time, and that is easy to understand listening to the orchestral support of the vocal parts and the instrumental movements in Circé and especially Amphion. The three soloists deliver impressive performances in which the tension of the situations they have to face is perfectly exposed. Stylistically their singing is also convincing, although Maïlys de Villoutreys should have reduced her vibrato a little; fortunately it is not too obtrusive. In Circé the lowest notes in the vocal part are sometimes a shade overpowered by the orchestra. Ursula Eittinger's low register is quite respectable, but probably not quite strong enough. She has more presence in the episodes where she can go into the higher ranges of her tessitura. The orchestra does a fine job; only in Clytemnestre is it a bit on the tame side.
However, these are just minor blots on an otherwise very interesting production. One could wish for more of Cherubini's oeuvre to be performed and recorded.

Q: How do I call template defs with names only known at runtime in the Python template language Mako? I am trying to find a way of calling def templates determined by the data available in the context.
Edit: A simpler instance of the same question.
It is possible to emit the value of an object in the context:
# in python
ctx = Context(buffer, website='stackoverflow.com')

# in mako
<%def name="body()">
I visit ${website} all the time.
</%def>

Produces:
I visit stackoverflow.com all the time.

I would like to allow a customization of the output, based upon the data.
# in python
ctx = Context(buffer, website='stackoverflow.com', format='text')

# in mako
<%def name="body()">
I visit ${(format + '_link')(website)} all the time. <-- Made up syntax.
</%def>

<%def name='html_link(w)'>
${w}
</%def>

<%def name='text_link(w)'>
${w}
</%def>

Changing the format attribute in the context should change the output from
I visit stackoverflow.com all the time.

to
I visit stackoverflow.com all the time.

The made up syntax I have used in the body def is obviously wrong. What would I need to dynamically specify a template, and then call it?

A: Takes some playing with mako's local namespace, but here's a working example:
from mako.template import Template
from mako.runtime import Context
from StringIO import StringIO

mytemplate = Template("""
<%def name='html_link(w)'>
${w}
</%def>
<%def name='text_link(w)'>
${w}
</%def>
<%def name="body()">
I visit ${getattr(local, format + '_link')(website)} all the time.
</%def>
""")

buf = StringIO()
ctx = Context(buf, website='stackoverflow.com', format='html')
mytemplate.render_context(ctx)
print buf.getvalue()

As desired, this emits:
I visit
stackoverflow.com
 all the time.

A: How about if you first generate the template (from another template :), and then run that with your data?

2010 Save GAMC Rally – A day to remember!
In case you missed it, here's a short video summarizing what was truly an amazing turnout from hundreds upon hundreds of Minnesotans from all over the state and all walks of life. We all came together to demand our legislators restore the General Assistance Medical Care (GAMC) program, which provides health insurance for the poor and homeless in our state. Truly an incredible event!
MARSHALL, Minn. – This isn't exactly what you call putting patients first.
Avera Marshall Regional Medical Center is threatening to break a public promise by closing its popular Home Health Care program, which annually provides thousands of home nursing and wellness visits to many of Marshall's 15,000 residents.
"We're a small community. People here take care of one another," says Val Buysse, a Registered Nurse who has spent more than 15 years working in Avera's Home Care program. "Why would our town's only hospital turn its back on the people who need its services most?
We wanted to share with you the very latest on a critical patient safety issue involving the Minnesota Board of Nursing and the scope of practice for Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs).
The MNA has serious concerns for the safety of patients and nurses regarding the Board of Nursing's proposal to re-interpret and expand the current scope of practice of a Licensed Practical Nurse in the areas of assessment, delegation, and supervision with no additional education.
At today's Board of Nursing Practice Committee Meeting, members of MNA, faculty members of Minnesota nursing schools and LPNs testified for more than 90 minutes about this issue.

U.S. Nurses Headed to Haiti – Can you help?
More than 11,000 RNs from all over the United States have already volunteered to go to Haiti, including close to 300 nurses from Minnesota. As nurses, it is in our DNA to help out when we see someone in need, and to use our training and experience to care for the sick and injured – no matter where they are. We're proud of the MNA Nurses who are able to donate their time and talents to the Haiti relief effort, and if you can join them, go here. Also, our nurses need financial support to pay for their travel, lodging, food, water and medical supplies while they are in Haiti.

At first glance, this appears to be a glass of water sitting dangerously close to the edge of a table. But appearances can be deceiving, and very often your eyes can play tricks on you. Would you believe that's no glass at all?
This little girl can't believe what she's seeing! She knows that this is just a picture of a butterfly, but the way Stefan has executed the image makes it truly captivating all the same. It looks like it's going to fly away!
If you walked into an artist's studio and saw this mess of paint and flowers, you might think that this person was a total slob—but that's not the case here! Stefan loves sharing his passion for painting itself in his art. How "meta" is this one?
These droplets look so realistic that it's hard to resist the urge to reach out and wipe all of that water away. Can you believe that they were made by a paintbrush? How does he do it?
Is there anything cuter than a miniature dolphin? Stefan has proven that there is: a miniature dolphin that looks like it's diving right into your hand! This painting is like an animal lover's fantasy come to life.
Either this little girl is braver than most adults, or she was told right away that the giant tarantula in the room wasn't alive—just a very realistic drawing. It might be a cool work of art, but it still gives us the heebie-jeebies!
There's seemingly no end to the amazing visuals that Stefan can create.
Stefan loves using this 3-D painting technique so much that he's thinking about putting together a book on the subject. Looking at his ability to transform things in this magical way, there's no doubt anything he publishes will be a smash hit.
When Stefan isn't busy using his incredible skills to bring life to small animals and insects, he's creating homages to his favorite movie franchises and to the characters he loves from pop culture. Just check out this stellar rending of Darth Vader!
Some of Stefan's strongest 3-D projects are the pencil drawings he creates of simple and ordinary objects like a metallic sphere. Don't you just want to reach out with both hands and grab it? It's so realistic!
Who says that LEGO bricks are just for kids? When Stefan is working on rendering giant 3-D versions of the toy building blocks, they are just plain cool enough to attract anyone. Talk about a conversation piece!
Stefan doesn't just produce work to entertain; he also supports political causes. After terror attacks on France, he created this piece entitled "In Solidarity With Paris." It's not just a beautiful piece of art—it's a touching statement, too.
In addition to creating images that seem to pop right off the page, Stefan has also mastered the art of creating totally photorealistic paintings. Check out this stunning work of a woman's eye. Doesn't it look like a photograph?

Bray-ve proposal – Farmer pops the question with note carried by donkeys
Nick Cavill and Becca Thomas who he asked to marry him with the help of two donkeys he adopted from a Devon sanctuary
A romantic farmer has popped the question to his animal lover girlfriend with the help of two DONKEYS.
Four-legged pals Bertie and Derek played the lead role as Nick Cavill asked girlfriend of two-and-a-half years Becca Thomas to marry him.
The pair, who were adopted by Nick from The Donkey Sanctuary, in Sidmouth, Devon, greeted Becca with a note which read "Will you marry me?"
They also made the perfect engagement present.
Nick, 25, who lives with Becca, 34, on their farm near Wells, Somerset, said: "We've always been into buying each other strange presents. She bought me a cow in the past.
"She's a vet and she's always loved donkeys. Every time we see an advert about them on TV she goes weak at the knees.
"She had been badgering me to get married for ages, and I wanted her to have an engagement present she could look at every day."
Nick adopted the donkeys from the sanctuary in November and kept them hidden from Becca on his farm for a month before enlisting them to play a key part in the proposal.
"We got to the bottom of the drive of the farm and I said 'I have a surprise for you'," Nick said. "I told her to cover her eyes and led her into the yard.
"I got Derek and put his face looking at her, so she opened her eyes and got a surprise and started crying.
"I had one note on Derek's collar explaining the donkeys' history, and there was another on Bertie's collar with the four magic words."
Nick got down on one knee in the stable with the donkeys beside him and proposed.
The couple, who met while carrying out a caesarean on a cow, travelled to Bath that afternoon to choose a ring.
Nick said it had been tough to keep the donkeys secret for a month.
He said: "I had to do a bit of ducking and diving. Derek is quite loud and sometimes. I'd be on the phone to Becca and he'd blare something out."
Bertie and Derek will now share the farm with four horses, three dogs, one cat and 200 cows.

Masked officers are seen on social network videos dragging former Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili from his apartment block in Kiev. Rough cut (no reporter narration).
ROUGH CUT. NO REPORTER NARRATION. Ukraine detained former Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili on Tuesday (December 5) on suspicion of assisting a criminal organization, sparking clashes between his supporters and police who fired teargas into the crowd. Addressing supporters earlier from the roof of the house, Saakashvili had accused Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko of being a traitor and a thief. Masked officers could be seen on social network videos dragging Saakashvili from the roof. As he was escorted out of his apartment in the capital Kiev, his supporters protested on the street and tried to stop the police van from leaving, crowding the vehicle and setting up a barricade with tires, wood and stones. It is the latest twist in a prolonged feud between Ukrainian authorities and Saakashvili, who was invited by Poroshenko to become a regional governor after protests in 2014 ousted a pro-Russian president but quickly fell out with his one-time ally.

German marching band MEUTE reworks a Deadmau5 track into a live techno song
Yesterday we were passed a video of the German marching band, MEUTE. The video captures the band reinterpreting a techno song with nothing but their instruments. The eleven-piece band was in Ibiza on their way to join Solomun for a guest performance at club Destino, but they decided to play a little live set along the way.
Could you imagine being a tourist in Ibiza harbor when these eleven musicians in their iconic red jackets start setting up their gear? I'm willing to bet that most of the people in this video didn't know who MEUTE were much less what they were about to see. Because of the organized dress code, they would have probably suspected that they were about to witness some slightly above average busking. But there is no way they couldn't have imagined just how good it would be. Once the band started playing however, onlookers would have thought they had won the busking performance lottery!
Video filmed, produced and directed by Christoph Szulecki at the Old Port of Ibiza
What started as an experiment on the streets of Hamburg, Germany has quickly evolved into a world-acclaimed phenomenon. MEUTE combines hypnotic driving techno sound and expressive brass band music to become something quite amazing. In one clever move, they've been able to free electronic music from the DJ desk and overhaul the image of marching bands across the world. The only ingredients are drums and brass — no computers involved. This is all they need to revolutionize techno music and bring it back to its roots. There's something so simple about that kind of analogue reinterpretation. It's a minimal approach to a genre that already prides itself as being minimal.
Besides blowing people's minds at their live shows, MEUTE garners a lot of respect from the DJs they reinterpret. Flume dusted off his saxophone in November and jumped on stage with the guys at the Studio Brussel Showcase to perform the album track "Rushing Back." (It was MEUTE's guerrilla video covering Flume's "You & Me" that helped initially put the band on the map)
The reputation of their live show was captured on their LIVE IN PARIS album released last year. The album was recorded during their show at the prestigious club Le Trianon in Paris, in March. The set features the band's own versions of songs by Deadmau5, Dennis Ferrer, Solomun, N'to and Trentemøller.
This year the techno marching band is set to release their second studio album: PULS (which means "pulse" in German). The LP will rework songs from Flume, Röyksopp, Kölsch, Rival Consoles, Boris Brejcha, and Oscar House. And for the first time, the band also includes three original compositions that fit into the record seamlessly.
The album is due out on February 21, 2020 on the in-house label TUMULT.

Big 12 Conference Sends ESPN 'Cease and Desist' Letter
It might be too late, but the Big 12 has finally grown a backbone.
The Big 12 Conference sent a "cease and desist" letter to ESPN, according to Yahoo's Pete Thamel.
The letter reportedly demands ESPN end "all actions that may harm the conference and its members and that it not communicate with the Big 12 Conference's existing members or any NCAA conference regarding the Big 12 conference's members, possible conference realignment or potential financial incentive or outcomes related to possible conference realignment."

or any NCAA conference regarding the Big 12 conference's members, possible conference realignment or potential financial incentive or outcomes related to possible conference realignment." More soon on @YahooSports https://t.co/HHRW1ZXTPm
Stadium's Brett McMurphy reports that the letter also claimed the network contacted other conferences to try and dissolve the Big 12 Conference.
Big 12's "cease & desist" to ESPN claims network contacted other conferences "encouraging" them to take Big 12 schools so Big 12 dissolves, eliminating grant of rights, sources told @Stadium. If Big 12 implodes, ESPN not responsible for final 4 years of deal, worth $1.06 billion
— Brett McMurphy (@Brett_McMurphy) July 28, 2021
ESPN responded to McMurphy saying the claim has no merit.
This move comes in the wake of Oklahoma and Texas officially applying to join the SEC on Tuesday. It was one week ago today that college football world was upended by the news that the Sooners and Longhorns were talking with the SEC about joining there conference. And just five days later, the two schools informed the Big 12 they were planning to leave the league.
This is fairly unprecedented for a league to sue it's TV partner, but it also goes to show you how much the Big 12's relationship and trust in ESPN has fallen apart the last week. And can you blame them? If you don't think the SEC played an active role in this, like commissioner Greg Sankey claimed this week, and ESPN was involved as well, my offer of beachfront property in Salina, Kansas holds.

Lurlean Hunter (vcl), Al Nevins, Manny Albam, Phil Moore, Jimmy Giuffre (dir), Ernie Royal, Joe Newman, Harry Edison (tp), Urbie Green (tb), Hal McKusick, Frank Wess, Al Cohn, Bud Freeman (saxes), Herbie Mann (fl), Hank Jones (p), Jim Hall (g), Milt Hinton, Trigger Alpert (b), Osie Johnson (d), Ernie Wilkins, Quincy Jones, Marion Evans (arr)
Lurlean Hunter (1928-1983) was, with all her skills, one of the most underappreciated singers in America. Other singers, who held her in universal high regard, were in no doubt as to her quality. A singers singer, she was revered for her near perfection in vocal styling, technique, and delivery, gifts she blended into a captivating combination.
This distinction is self-evident in the four albums she recorded during her career: Lonesome Gal (1955), Night Life (1956), Stepping Out (1957), and Blue and Sentimental (1960). On them she is accompanied by orchestras filled by some of the best New York jazz musicians. The skillful writing was provided by a handful of top arrangers, including Quincy Jones, Marion Evans, Manny Albam, Al Cohn, Ernie Wilkins, Phil Moore, and Jimmy Giuffre.
All of themwith the exception of Cohn and Wilkinsalso conducted their own scores. Throughout she is refreshingly unselfconscious, her voice strong and firm, her conception mature and intelligent and her phrasing meaningful. Blessed with fantastic intonation, effortless ease and innate musicianship, she also had an innately lyrical approach to the songs she sang, and they flowed out of her like something made of rich velvet, done in exquisite taste.

Victim Impact Panels (VIPs)
REGION: AMERICAS
Implementer: Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD)
Program Overview: Victim Impact Panels (VIPs) were introduced by MADD in 1982 and have since spread throughout the United States in an attempt to reduce drunk driving. The objective of a VIP is to expose driving under the influence (DUI) offenders to the pain and suffering caused by drunk driving without necessarily condemning the DUI offender.
Program Design: The VIP panel consists of four or five victims of drink driving, each of whom offered a short description of how a drink driver impacted their lives and the lives of family members. The DUI offenders were not berated or harangued by the panelists; each VIP presenter simply told his or her story of personal suffering.
Evaluation: The VIP group in this study (n=404) consisted of residents of Clarke County, Georgia. All persons who were convicted of a drink driving offense were required by the sentencing judge to attend a VIP program. VIP sessions were held once a month in the county commission chambers, with a maximum of 75 offenders in attendance, and were 60 to 90 minutes in length.
-A comparison group (n=430) was selected from Clarke County DUI offenders in the year prior to the implementation of the VIP program.
All subjects were followed for exactly five years. Criminal record files and the driving history files were searched for DUI offenses using National Crime Information Center computer records.
Key findings: The overall findings suggest that VIPs may reduce DUI recidivism. At five-year follow-up, those who participated in the VIP program were much less likely to become DUI recidivists than those who did not attend a VIP session: 33.5% of the comparison group and 15.8% of the VIP group were rearrested for DUI offenses over the five-year period.
-The VIPs are associated with a 55.7% overall decrease in the hazard of rearrest; the VIP effect is strong in the first two years but then wanes dramatically.

Torcuato Tárrago y Mateos (Guadix, Granada, 10 de mayo de 1822-Madrid, 16 de noviembre de 1889) fue un militar, periodista, escritor y músico español.

Biografía

Era subteniente del Ejército español. Estando en Valencia de guarnición sobrevinieron acontecimientos políticos que lo determinaron a pedir el retiro. Habitando en Sevilla se creó la Milicia Nacional y él por su cuenta formó una compañía, que uniformó.

Era gran amigo del General Leopoldo O'Donnell y en cuantos periódicos escribió siempre tuvo su pluma dispuesta a servirlo en aquello que fuese de razón y de justicia.

Al triunfar la revolución de septiembre de 1868, fue llamado por el general Juan Prim y le ofreció su reingreso en el Ejército con el grado de comandante, qué rehusó. Tárrago Mateos con el tiempo había cambiado sus ideas políticas: promovido el alzamiento de 1869, se apareció carlista convencido. Más adelante sufriría persecuciones cuando la rebelión cantonalista.

Residente en su localidad natal de Guadix, acudía muchas tardes al atrio de la ermita, acompañado de Sebastián Rodríguez Asensio, doctoral de la catedral, y allí frente al cálido sol leían los periódicos tradicionalistas El Papelito, La Regeneración, La Esperanza, El Rigoleto y otros.

Fue nombrado Teniente Coronel por el pretendiente Don Carlos, y organizó huestes a las que llamó «Tiradores de Sierra Nevada», siendo perseguido como conspirador en varias épocas durante la tercera guerra carlista, junto con otros carlistas de Guadix. Terminada la guerra o poco antes, marchó a Madrid definitivamente.

En 1881 pensó en presentarse candidato a diputado a Cortes por el distrito de Guadix, pero sus propuestas fueron desoídas por sus paisanos, que eligieron al liberal Juan Montilla y Adán.

Compuso innumerables folletines, así como novelas históricas poco o nada documentadas y libros de viajes. Como periodista escribió en El Independiente y fundó El Eco de Occidente en Granada junto a su paisano Pedro Antonio de Alarcón; también dirigió La Verdad (1860) y El Popular en Madrid; algunas de sus obras se siguen reeditando, como Historia de un sombrero blanco o A doce mil pies de altura. A veces toma como modelo a Julio Verne. Conocía muy bien el mundo eslavo, lo que aprovecha para ambientar ahí algunas de sus obras, y fue el primero en escribir un cuento sobre la guerra de Independencia de Bulgaria.

Some Reasons People Become Homeless
Kylyssa Shay
Kylyssa Shay was homeless for over a year in her youth; it lead to her activism in homelessness. She thinks, feels, and has opinions.
Learn a few of the reasons people become homeless.

What Causes Homelessness? Maybe It Isn't What You Think.
Many people feel that all homeless people are entirely to blame for their own miserable situations. Those same people tend to believe that under no circumstance could they find themselves without a home because they feel they are better than "those people" who have lost their homes. In reality, people from all walks of life can wind up on the street and almost no one is immune from the possibility.
I want to present a few reasons actual people become homeless, reasons often beyond their control or ability to deal with. By doing so, I hope to increase empathy towards those less fortunate. This is by no means an exhaustive list; please do not be offended if you know of something not mentioned on this page.
Most people become homeless due to circumstances that have overwhelmed them combined with the lack of a family support structure. Others, particularly teens, often lose their housing due to an actively hostile, perhaps even hazardous, abusive, or non-supportive family environment.
Average people without a good friend and family support structure can be overwhelmed by events such as domestic abuse, divorce, unemployment, or illness and find themselves without housing as well. There are many causes of homelessness and, while this page covers a few, there are almost as many causes as there are people with nowhere to live. If you've ever wondered why people become homeless, you've found the right place to learn some of the possible answers.
Lack of a Living Wage: Inadequate Wages Cause Homelessness
Many homeless people work. However, the minimum wage is often not up to the task of supporting a family.
In many areas, working full time for minimum wage does not earn enough to pay rent, utilities, and food. While people can combine their income to rent an apartment, they often run into snags such as discovering that the number of working adults required to cover rent and bills combined with their minor children will exceed the number of occupants allowed by their lease. Additionally, many apartment complexes run credit checks which can prevent people with poor credit from renting; things like unpaid medical bills can prevent working people from finding a place to rent.
Parental Ideology
When parents' beliefs clash with teens' beliefs, sexual orientation, or behaviors, this may result in teen homelessness.
While few will admit it, some parents only love their children conditionally and these parents may discard their children once they reach their teens. These parents hold their beliefs as more important than their own children. Often the beliefs in question are religious.
As many as 40% of homeless teenagers are LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender) when it is estimated that less than five percent of teens are gay, bisexual, or transgender. In my experience with LGBT homeless teens and young adults, they've come from families that refused to accept them or that began to actively abuse them after their orientation became known.
Perhaps it was a coincidence, but almost all of the gay and bisexual teens and young adults without homes that I've met came from religious fundamentalist homes—fundamentalist Christian, Jewish, and Muslim homes—where their parents' beliefs were anathema to homosexuality or difference of any kind.
I also encountered teens living on the street whose problem stemmed from other religious differences. Some teens and young adults I met suffered homelessness because they were somehow at odds with their parents' beliefs. In one case, the teenager had converted to Christianity from Islam, another teen was suspected of engaging in pre-marital sex which was in conflict with her parents' religious beliefs. A number of Pagan teens that I met were expelled from their Christian homes.
Some of these young people were brutally beaten, threatened with death, or thrown from their homes by force. Others were systematically abused—physically and emotionally—until they ran from their abusers, preferring homelessness to continued abuse.
This subject is practically taboo, the relationship between parental beliefs and teen and young adult homelessness. In fact, after including the concept on a couple of pages, I have received threats, death threats, and hate mail. It is true that child abandonment and abuse are counter to what the vast majority of religious people hold dear. But it is also true that a minority of religious people have a different view. While that minority may seem inconsequential it is anything but inconsequential to around 400,000 American teens and young adults each year.
Physical Illness or Injury
Injury or illness can result in job loss and debt or inability to work.
Some people are on the streets due to injury or illness. Many of them had jobs and insurance but through the course of their medical problems, both were lost. Many people don't realize that even "good" medical insurance is not a guarantee of medical care. They are then devastated to find out that their insurance will not cover their medical expenses or treatment. They are also shocked when they lose their health insurance due to illness or injury.
Hospitalization quickly consumes savings and too many absences from work due to injury or illness will result in the loss of a job. Once a person has a significant gap in his or her employment history and a bad credit score due to unpaid bills, it becomes much more difficult for him or her to get a job even when completely recovered.
People in all stages of recovery from illness or injury lose their homes. Some never get well due to lack of treatment and are too ill to hold down a job. Others get well but get pulled down by their medical debt and illness or injury related job loss. And increasingly, medical bankruptcy can result in homelessness.
While many people in situations like these have strong friend and family support structures, many do not. They are the ones who fall through the cracks and find themselves living on the street due to illness, injury, or the resultant medical bills.
It is my sincere hope that this reason for homelessness may disappear through effective health care reform. The health care bill that passed is not even close to what is needed. Medical bills are currently the leading cause of bankruptcy in America, and by a very large margin. Surprisingly, over half of those claiming medical bankruptcy either have or had medical insurance at the time their debt was incurred.

Blue Beetle Test Screening Leak Confirms Movie Has a Serious '90s Vibe, Proves Why James Gunn Left Xolo Maridueña Movie Untouched
in DC, Movies, News
Diya Majumdar December 24, 2022, 12:31 pm
DCU's upcoming film Blue Beetle has proved to be a win for the newly minted studio states a YouTuber after watching an early test screening of the superhero movie. Although the news comes from a reliable critic, the audience has been skeptical in recent times, considering DC's less-than-average performance in terms of projects and promises.
As such the family-friendly movie which has already drawn some favorable attention owing to its comic-accurate first peek now has a broader audience base after the test screening leaks proved to drum up some piqued interest towards the DC film.

Blue Beetle Gets Positive Reaction From Test Screening Leak
An early screening was shown to the YouTube content creator and reviewer, Mr. H, who has now sent in constructive feedback and managed to portray Blue Beetle in a positive light — which happens to be very good news for the DC fans. If the superhero film actually manifests the success that its early screening promises, it will be a major win for the franchise after an unnecessarily long and dry spell.
The YouTuber, Mr. H has claimed that the movie's "late '90s" aesthetic targets an audience who "will find [the film] endearing." Aside from its visual representation, the film is said to be "entertaining" and "kid-friendly" which not only sets Blue Beetle open to a PG-13 reception but also makes it a film for accompanying adults who can expect themselves to be "moderately amused."

Perhaps it was this well-rounded aspect of the DC project that had caused WBD chief, David Zaslav, to reconsider axing this singular film among the array of canceled ones such as Batgirl and for James Gunn to move ahead without any changes made to Blue Beetle's scheduled release.
Watch the test screening leak here.
Xolo Maridueña's Blue Beetle Raises Expectations For DCU
Like the highs and lows that perched over DC for its recent cinematic history, every project has come with its fair share of hyped-up expectations and disappointing reviews. And even though there have been more successes than failures for the CBM franchise, as of late, it feels as though DC has been struggling to stay afloat amid a torrent of crushing defeats.
Among the many misfires of 2022, ranging from Black Adam to Batgirl, the Xolo Maridueña film seems like a welcome respite from the controversial launches and hierarchy-changing guerrilla plots. The film, Blue Beetle, seeks to simply deliver what a superhero film is inherently supposed to at its core — a refreshing plot, comic-book accuracy, futuristic diorama, and visually charging cinematography.

The film also features a cast comprising industry veterans like George Lopez and Susan Sarandon. Batfleck is rumored to make an appearance, although the scene could be scrapped to prevent further confusion in the DCU timeline.
Blue Beetle premieres on 18 August 2023.
