Still a Long Way to First World for Brazil
by Alexandre Rocha October 22, 2004
Brazil needs to chase new markets to show its potential. This option was defended by Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva at an address yesterday at the Federation of Industries of the State of Rio de Janeiro (Firjan) and the day before at the opening of the Car Salon, in São Paulo.
"(In the past) we had the crazy idea of only looking at the United States and Europe, and forgot that the world trade geography changes as you find partners, and that is what we did," stated the president yesterday.
"We greatly respect our relations with the United States, the European Union, Japan, and France, but the true figure is that the world is much larger than these markets and it is our option to go out and sell what we have that is best," declared Lula on Wednesday.
At both occasions the President mentioned the Arab countries as examples of searches for alternative markets.
"It was with this determination that we decided to visit the Arab countries. The last Brazilian authority to visit Lebanon had been Emperor Dom Pedro (II), in 1876.
"After all, if we want to compete with the rich countries on the Arab market, we must go there and talk about ourselves, show our products, show what we know how to make – clothes, shoes, cars and whatever they want," he stated.
"I said: let's visit the Middle East. Let's show them that we exist, that we have Iguaçu Falls, which are much more beautiful than Niagara Falls (on the frontier between Canada and the United States), that we have qualified labor, that we know how to produce quality cars, that we have technology.
"We are not just exporters of raw products, we can compete in many other areas in the world, but we have to believe and we have to act," he added.
Lula frequently mentions the tour he took to five Arab countries, in December 2003, and the increase in trade with the region so as to show his government's successful foreign policy.
Brazilian exports to the 22 countries of the League of Arab States are growing at a faster rhythm than that of Brazilian exports in general and, between January and September, they have already exceeded the total for last year.
In the first nine months of the year, shipping to the region generated over US$ 3 billion, a 62% increase with regard to the same period last year. In the whole of 2003, export to the Arabs totalled US$ 2.76 billion, and they had risen just 6% with regard to 2002.
But president Lula went further. Enthusiastic with exports in general, which had generated US$ 74.9 billion up to the third week of October, and have already exceeded the total for last year (US$ 73 billion), he stated that, together with strong agriculture, the country also has high added value products that can guarantee that the country stops being called "a developing country."
"We are already mature, adult, and want, very soon, to be treated like a country capable of competing in equal conditions with any economic power in the world," he declared.
In the evaluation of experts, Brazil really has conditions of competing with the developed countries in a series of sectors, as is the case with agribusiness as a whole, ironworks, auto industry, some sectors of capital goods, agricultural implements, paper and cellulose, mining, oil, and the aeronautical industry.
"I believe that the president meant that Brazil already threatens the developed countries in some areas," stated the executive director of the Institute for Studies in aid of Industrial Development (Iedi), Julio Sérgio Gomes de Almeida.
"In these sectors companies installed in Brazil owe nothing to those in developed countries," he added.
"If the President meant that the country economy is not debilitated, that businessmen are competent and that the products are good quality, then he was correct," stated the vice president of the Federation of Industries of the State of Paraná (Fiep), Ardisson Akel.
However, specialists alert to the fact that Brazil loses in competitiveness when compared to developed countries due to deficiencies in the transport and logistics system, to heavy taxing and to the large cost of credit.
"The Brazilian problems are outside factory doors and farm gates," stated Almeida.
Akel added that the country also needs to invest more in marketing of its products and in strengthening the " Brazil brand".
"Brazil, for example, is a great producer of cocoa and is not known for chocolates," he stated.
Brazil has good potential, but the country must overcome barriers. "If we address the potential, it is possible that Brazil reach this competitiveness. But to make it come true, there are many phases that must be accomplished," stated the president of the Brazilian Institute for Ethical Competition (Etco), Emerson Kapaz.
These phases, according to Kapaz, are the overcoming of logistics, tax and credit bottlenecks, among others.
He recognizes, however, that some steps in this direction of overcoming such problems may already be identified.
"Recognition itself that these problems exist and need to be faced is already an extraordinary step," he said.
Kapaz also mentioned the industrial policy released by the government in the first half, which still needs to evolve, but is already an advance.
In his evaluation, if Brazil had already overcome these barriers, the country economy could maintain sustainable growth of between 5% and 6% a year, not between 3% and 4%, as is the forecasted Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth up to the end of 2004.
The economist of the Institute of Applied Economic Research (Ipea), Armando Castelar Pinheiro, recalled that development of a country cannot be measured only by its exports, but also by the standard of living of its population, or at least part of it.
In this sense, there is still much to do in Brazil. "This is what justifies the different treatment Brazil receives in international relations, not for promotion of competitiveness, but for development," he declared.

Q: wp-load.php file is getting empty I have multiple WordPress websites. All of them have been running fine for a long time. But suddenly my WP websites shown the error:

This page isn't working

When I investigate the problem I found this in the error log:
"Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function wp() in /home/nc136xrqx05i/public_html/wp-blog-header.php:16"
and the wp-load.php file is 0.

Then I rename the plugin files. Then the websites run but if I try to install a plugin from the plugin folder from dashbaord, wp-load file is becoming empty again and the site goes down.
How can I solve that?

A: The solution to this issue is to set the permission of the wp-load file to 444 after copying the contents back into the file, but you have to do it quickly because whatever is emptying the file is doing it very fast. I had the very same issue today and tech support for both web host that I am with di

A: I had the same issue with my site and now I changed the wp-load.php file's permission from 644 to 444 as shown in the image below.

Improving Jordan's employment policy to future-proof its labour market
Title: Employment in Jordan 2030 (EJ2030)
Lead executing agency: Ministry of Labour
Jordan is an emerging Middle Eastern economy whose population consists mainly of people at or below working age. The country is relatively small, but its open economy and stability in a region with many conflicts makes it attractive to foreign investors.
Jordan's economic growth has slowed over the last decade. Employment has been particularly affected by the recent global pandemic and the high, long-term influx of refugees. Unemployment stood at 25 per cent in 2021, and especially affects women and youth. Although a third of female school leavers enter higher education, female participation in the labour force is very low at about 15 per cent.
Jordan's labour market does not provide sufficient high-quality jobs in well-paid, fast‑growing economic sectors to absorb the growing number of educated and trained workers. Many well-educated and trained people are either unemployed or are working in jobs for which they are over-qualified, while many companies cannot find people with the skills they need as training often fails to match the requirements of the labour market.
The Government of Jordan attaches a high priority to employment promotion and is in the process of modernising its employment policy to create more sustainable jobs. The overall aim is to improve the countries' economic situation and raise the living standards of its people.
Jordan's employment policy is more oriented towards social and economic development potentials.
The project "Employment in Jordan 2030" (EJ2030) works alongside the Ministry of Labour and other national partners to create and improve sustainable employment opportunities in Jordan, while also addressing specific challenges for women's employment.
Focal areas are:
Advising the Ministry of Labour on the development of a future-oriented employment policy.
Facilitating regular dialogue between the state, private sector, and civil society on employment policy in general and particularly on future work practices.
Supporting the scaling-up of successful approaches for promoting sustainable employment.

Species & Populations/
5. Populations and species
This program focus on:
5.1. Flora:
5.1.2.1 Threathened flora: since 2005 the ICTS-RBD team, the national park and Dunas del Odiel Botanical garden have been monitored the distribution and population dynamics of threatened plant species present in the protected areas of Doñana. During these years 118 taxa have been included, most of them endemic species associated with oligotrophic coastal and wetland habitats. The information is incorporated into the threatened flora and of interest in Andalusia (FAME) database and its visualizer. See protocol and a summary of data. Request draw data.
5.1.2. Invasive Flora:
5.1.2.1 Oxalis pes-caprae: the presence of Oxalis pes-caprae, commonly called sourgrass, was recorded in Doñana in the oaks of the "Pajarera" in December 2013. Eradication tasks were iniciated to control the population in the occupied sites. Since 2014, annual surveys are carried out to detect and evaluate the extent of the occupied area. After the location, the species is usually eliminated from the invaded points, clearing and removing the biomass and the bulbs. The plant remains obtained are eliminated by controlled burning. See summary of data. Request raw data.
1.1. Waterbirds: Doñana is a site of great importance for waterbirds, and they were probably the main factor behind its initial conservaton status in the mid-60s and its selection as one of the two first Spanish wetlands to join the Ramsar List in 1982. Indeed, Doñana meets Ramsar's 6th criterion ('supporting 1% of its population') for at least 18 species; it hosts more than one third of the Spain's wintering population of greylag goose, Eurasian teal and northern shoveler; and it is the main wintering site in Spain for at least 15 species. Doñana also hosts large breeding populations of more than 10 species, including conservation icons such as the marbled teal and red-knobbed coot. Waterbirds were the first group to be regularly monitored in Doñana and still represent one of its main monitoring efforts.
1.1.1. Aerial censuses: aerial censusses were the first standardized monitoring program introduced in Doñaña, with the early support of Tour de Valat. Initiated in the early 1970s, it has been carried out at monthly intervals since then. Aerial censuses are made from a small plane and cover all large wetlands (lakes, marsland, river branches and rice fields) over an area of 84.628 ha, which includes the Eastern margin of the Guadalquivir marshes and part of the Western margins included in the Doñana National and Natural Park. Besides rare and occasional observation, 49 species of waterbirds are regularlyregistered in the census. See protocol and summary data. Request raw data.
1.1.2. Ground censuses: aerial censuses are complemented since the 1980s by ground-based surveys of waterbirds and other non-passerine birds across the Guadalquivir marshes and other wetlands included in the Doñana Protected Areas. These surveys provide estimates of habitat use (particularly, in small wetlands such as sandy lakes), allow for the monitoring of bird species that cannot be surveyed reliably from the air (e.g. grebes, herons, purple swamphen, gulls and terns) and for the detection of rare or threatened species or rallids and ducks (such as the red-knobbed coot, marbled teal, ferruginous duck and white-headed duck). Surveys are coordinated at national level and take place five times a year, in january, april, june, september and november. In january, the survey forms part of the International Waterbird Census. In these surveys, all white-headed ducks are carefully observed in order to detect individuals of or potential hybrids with ruddy duck, whose presence is communicated to the Park's authorities since they are subjected to a control program. For threatened and/or protected species, all reproductive pairs detected in the surveys are subsequently monitored fortnightly to evaluate their reproductive success. See protocol and summary data. Request raw data.
1.1.3. Colonial breeders: the main aggregations of colonial breeders are monitored regularly during the whole breeding period. This monitoting program focuses in the heronry present in the Doñana Biological reserve (pajarera de Fuente del Duque), which is monitored monthly, from february to august, using telescope observations from a predetermined set of vantage points. The surveys provide information on the number of breedind pairs, as well as their productivity (number of eggs, chicks and fledged chicks per nest). See protocol and summary data. Request raw data.
1.1.4. Non-colonial breeders: non-colonial breeders aremonitored by means of horseback transect across the Doñana marsh. Transects follow a pre-defined itinerary, and the observers register the presence of nests of the different species, the number of eggs or chicks per nest, and the occurence of nest predation. Surveys take place at monthly intervals during the complete breeding season, at 5 different transects of 9.5 to 16.8 km. This protocol focused initally oncommon coot and purple swamphen, but it provides regular observations of several species. See protocol and summary data. Request raw data.
1.2. Beach and litoral birds: Doñana Protected Areas include one of the largest natural beaches in the Iberian Peninsula. Its beach represent an strategic point to survey the coastal movements of seabrids from the Atlantic and Mediterranean seas. It is also a key point in the Eastern Atlantic flyway for many Charadriiformes (waders, gulls and auks), and provides a vantage point from which to record the abundances of other migrants using the Doñana marshes as resting and feeding areas. Since 1990, the ICTS-RBD 'beach censuses' provide standardized estimates of the population trens of all these groups of birds. Surveys consist of observations made from a 4×4 vehicule along two predefined transects of 29 km (national park) and 23.5 km (natural park), and take place at monthly intervals. See protocol and summary data. Request raw data.
1.3. Raptors: Doñana is also well-known for the diversity and abundance of its raptors.
1.3.1. Colonial raptors: Doñana host roosting sites of three raptors, the red kite, western marsh harrier and Egyptian vulture. These sites are surveyed once a year, coinciding the International Waterbird Census, using telescope observations from vantage points. See protocol and summary data. Request raw data.
1.3.2. Breeding raptors: breeding raptors are intensively surveyed by the ICTS-RBD monitoring program – particularly for endangered (red kite, hen harrier) or localy rare species (peregrine falcon, black-winged kite, short-toed snake eagle, western marsh harrier, northern goshawk and Eurasian hobby). Reproductive pairs are identified and active nests monitored to asses their reproductive success (number of eggs, chicks and/or number of fledged chicks per nest). Surveys take place from march to september. See protocol and summary data. Request raw data.
1.4. Perching birds (passerines):
1.4.1. Breeding passerines: surveys of starting passerines were initiated in 2005, but the methodology was adjusted in 2012 to the national program SACRE. In both cases, surveys took place twice a year (april-may and may-june). (i) From 2005 to 2012, distance-sampling surveys were based in visual observations over 100-m transects. They included 10 different transects situated in 5 habitat types (gallery forest, shrubland, marsh-sand grass ecotone, pine forest and marshland). (ii) Since 2012, surveys are based on distance-sampling at point stations, in which the observer recordes all birds singing over a period of 5 minutes. They were reduced to 4 localities (at 4 habitat types) and based on 20 points per locality. See protocol and summary data. Request raw data.
1.4.2. Wintering passerines: These surveys are integrated in the national program of bird censuses SACIN. They take place rwice a year (november-december and january-february) and consist of transects of 4,0-5,6 km in which the observer walks for 120 minutes and registers all birds observed. See SACIN protocol and summary data. Request raw data.
1.4.3. Ringing of postnuptial migrants with constant effort: every autumn, ICTS-RBD runs this program at the Ringing Station of Manecorro (Doñana National Park). The campaign runs for 11 weeks, from September 1 to November 15, using 21 mist nets opened from dawn to dusk. Captured birds are identified, measured, ringed and immediately released. From 1994 to date, more than 65,000 birds belonging to 106 different species have been captured (3,700 birds per campaign, on average). The most abundant species trapped are: blackcap, common chiffchaff, pied flycatcher, garden warbler, European robin, willow warbler and reed warbler. See protocol and summary data. Request raw data.
2. Mammals: Doñana is well-known for its high diversity of mammals, with 38 species that include 4 insectivores, 12 bats, 9 carnivores, 8 rodents, 2 lagomorphs and 3 ungulates – plus 2 species of seals and 14 cetaceans present in its marine part. The monitoring focuses on a number of species considered of key importance for its ecosystems (carnivores, rodents, and herbivores) – and combines a suite of different technologies, based on direct observations, tracks and signals, photographic traps and remote sensing.
2.1 Herbivores: herbivores (ungulates, rabbit and hare): Monitoring of herbivore abundance combines two different approaches: (i) Annual censuses of red deer and falow deer by direct counts during the mating season (rutting), in september-october. (ii) Vehicle-based, distance sampling of wild boar, red deer, fallow deer, rabbit and hare using 8 different line transects of approx. 15 km, surveyeds three times a year (in march, june and september). See protocol and summary data. Request raw data.

The Goodwood Test
The Goodwood Test: Audi S1 – Pocket Rocket
All tickets now limited for the Goodwood Revival
Each week our team of experienced senior road testers pick out a new model from the world of innovative, premium and performance badges, and put it through its paces.
The S1 badge first entered the public conciousness on one of the greatest and most memorable rally cars of all time. Introduced at the end of the 1985 World Rally Championship it was the last upgrade to Audi's iconic Quattro Group B monster and would be guided to victory in the 1985 Sanremo Rally by the legendary Walter Röhrl. The 591bhp Audi Quattro S1 E2 would go on to capture the Pikes Peak crown in 1987 with the same driver, before being retired for good when Group B became too dangerous to continue. Now the smallest hot Audi carries not just the S1 badge, but also the Quattro name, marked along its flanks. The S1 follows a first foray into the hot-hatch market with the limited-edition, and insanely popular, A1 Quattro, released in 2012, and sold out almost instantly. No pressure then…
The Audi A1 burst onto the scene in 2010, ready to shake-up the supermini market from which Audi had been absent since the withdrawal of the ahead-of-its time, but ultimately unpopular, A2 in 2005. This S1 model is the ultimate iteration of the A1's cute looks, adding some welcome aggression in the form of a deeper front bumper, altered grille and a small spoiler perched atop the boot. Inside you get exactly what you expect, comfortable, but not tight, sports seats and a cabin designed around the driver, and being an Audi, everything is nailed together with superb attention to detail.
Mountains of grip and unbelievable traction are the main story, as you would hope to find in any car lucky enough to have the 'Quattro' badges affixed to it. Despite being on winter tyres our S1 handles incredibly, hugging the country lanes even when it gets a little bit wet, keep the dampers in 'auto' mode and the little hatch is a dream to swing through Sussex's winding asphalt. Under the bonnet is Audi's 2.0-litre, turbocharged, 228bhp engine, the same motor found in a different state of tune in both Volkswagen's Golf R (a car we loved last year) and the S1's Audi TT cousin. While the power figure is impressive it is the torque figure of 273lb ft, reached at just 1,600rpm, that is perhaps the most noticeable, leaving very little delay in calling on the S1's capabilities, even in a higher gear. all combined the S1 will hit 60mph in just 5.9 seconds, slicing a full 1.1 seconds from the time set by the benchmark Fiesta ST. That torque also means that the supermini is as perfect for nipping in and out of traffic in town as it is for munching up the b-road miles.
It's a 200+bhp hot hatch with a manual gearbox, a combination that makes everything feel right in the world. The gentle growl (mostly induction) produced by that marvellous motor is complimented by the six-speed 'box, which slots from gear to gear with a pleasing thunk Even with a sometime tricky change from first to second, the short throw is enough to make you feel like a b-road hero even when you're just accelerating into traffic. It's a supermini, so we're not expecting each S1 to live all their lives hammering round the countryside, which is why it's a fantastic discovery when you realise that it makes even nipping down the shops feel fun. While the S1 may not be the cheapest option in its class, this is a hot-hatch that can justifiably live up to the name; it's even got a proper handbrake, one that's just calling out to be given a cheeky yank mid-corner, and traction control that can be turned all the way off. Let's have some fun!

Man wanted in triple homicide aboard Rockford party bus booked in Winnebago County Jail
Apr 11, 2018 at 5:55 PM Apr 12, 2018 at 10:45 AM
King's girlfriend charged with aiding a fugitive
ROCKFORD — A five-day manhunt for the suspect wanted in connection with a triple homicide early Saturday morning ended after he turned himself over to police Wednesday.
Raheem D. King, 22, whom police had described as armed and dangerous, was booked into the Winnebago County Jail shortly after 5 p.m. He is being charged with four counts of first-degree murder without bond.
"We're very happy to have Mr. King in custody at this time as he was a great threat to the public," Police Chief Dan O'Shea said at a news conference Wednesday.
King's girlfriend, Lakeacia Kizart, 21, also turned herself in. She was charged with concealing or aiding a fugitive and is being held on $1 million bond.
King turned himself in with an attorney present around 5:15 p.m. Wednesday; Kizart turned herself in about an hour later.
Kizart lives in the 300 block of North Horace Avenue, according to court records. That's the area where police served a search warrant Saturday afternoon after the shooting.
Daijon K. Sistrunk, 22, and his cousin Sean M. Anderson, 27, were slain along with Martavies J. Blake, 21, while the bus was in the area of Auburn Street and Johnston Avenue.
King was organizing friends and acquaintances to join him on a party bus the weekend after his 22nd birthday. He used an assault rifle to open fire inside the bus while it was traveling, according to police. The driver of the private charter bus called 911 shortly before 3:30 a.m. after traveling more than a mile from the area of the shooting to the 400 block of North Springfield Avenue, police said. He met police there.
Passengers ran off the bus after the shooting, police said.
O'Shea said it was not immediately known if King and Kizart remained in Winnebago County following the shooting.
If King is convicted of any of the four first-degree charges he will face life in prison. Concealing or aiding a fugitive is a class 4 felony punishable by one to three years in prison.
"We can now allow the criminal justice system to do its work as we move forward," State's Attorney Joe Bruscato said at the news conference.
King could appear in court as early as 1:30 p.m. Thursday.

New Federal Analysis of Behavioral Health Care Workforce Released
Home > Capitol Connector > New Federal Analysis of Behavioral Health Care Workforce Released
Your source for the latest updates from Capitol Hill. We translate policy into practice so you can learn how policy trends will affect your work and how best to prepare.
Stephanie Pellitt
, National Council for Behavioral Health
December 13, 2018 | Workforce | Comments
The Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA) recently released national-level behavioral health workforce estimates for 2016 through 2030. The analysis, which was mandated by the 21st Century Cures Act, highlights how workforce shortages and an unequal distribution of providers have intensified access to care challenges for patients. HRSA reiterated that continued analysis on the behavioral health care workforce was essential to combatting the ongoing opioid crisis and noted that these findings aim to provide information on trends within the mental health and substance use disorder provider workforce.
In the report, HRSA explains that the magnitude of provider shortages can vary greatly, as certain areas of the country have few or no behavioral health providers available, according to HRSA analysis. Further, the shortage of a qualified behavioral health workforce is exacerbated by high turnover rates, a lack of professionals, aging workers and low compensation.
Among the key details of the report, HRSA calls to align efforts to build the behavioral health workforce with other work to address social determinants of health and improve delivery of mental health and substance use disorder treatments services. Greater integration of behavioral health services with other health services was stressed, and the health agency reported that the extent to which primary care providers are preventing, screening, or referring for mental health and substance use disorder services is an area still under active study.
HRSA explained that the following factors could help increase access to behavioral health services: (1) the use of health information technology; (2) elevation of prevention and recovery-oriented systems; (3) strengthening the quality of care and services delivered; (4) easing administrative burdens for physicians; (5) facilitating shifts in health care delivery models towards team-based care; (6) fully embracing telemedicine modalities; and (7) focusing attention on the value of using peers and paraprofessionals in behavioral health care delivery.
On Capitol Hill, the National Council and its members have worked to create policies to better help community-based mental health and addiction treatment providers attract and retain a well-trained workforce. In the recently-enacted Opioid package (H.R. 6), the National Council secured a provision to create a new federal student loan forgiveness program for individuals working in addiction treatment and recovery support. Additionally, the National Council has supported legislation to create a similar program for mental health professionals. The National Council has also been a longtime advocate of the Mental Health Access Improvement Act (S. 1879/ H.R. 3032), which would allow licensed professional counselors and marriage and family therapists to bill Medicare for their services.
DETAILED ANALYSIS
HRSA produced the following occupation-specific analyses on the behavioral health care workforce:
Addiction Counselors — At the national level, the supply of addiction counselors is projected to increase 6 percent between 2016 and 2030. Demand for addiction counselors may increase anywhere between 21 to 38 percent by 2030, resulting in a deficit of addiction counselors. (Fact Sheet)
Marriage and Family Therapists — At the national level, the supply of marriage and family therapists is expected to increase by 41 percent between 2016 and 2030. Demand for marriage and family therapists may increase by 14 percent by 2030, suggesting the U.S. will have a sufficient supply to meet projected demand. (Fact Sheet)
Mental Health and School Counselors — At the national level, the supply of mental health counselors is projected to increase by 13 percent between 2016 and 2030, with demand increasing by 18 to 20 percent over the same time period. This would result in a deficit of mental health counselors by 2030. The supply of school counselors is projected to increase by 101 percent between 2016 and 2030 and increase in demand by one to three percent. This would allow for a modest surplus of school counselors by 2030. (Fact Sheet)
Psychiatric Technicians and Psychiatric Aides — HRSA did not predict changes in supply, due to unique challenges in determining future competitiveness of wages, benefits, and workplace characteristics in the model used. Demand for psychiatric technicians is expected to increase anywhere from 13 to 16 percent, whereas demand for psychiatric aides may increase by 16 percent. (Fact Sheet)
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners (NPs) and Psychiatric Physician Assistants (PAs) — Between the years 2016 and 2030, the national supply of psychiatric NPs and PAs is projected to grow by 67 percent. Demand for psychiatric NPs and PAs in expected to increase by 17 percent, resulting in a sufficient supply of NP and PA services by 2030. (Fact Sheet)
Psychiatrists — At the national level, approximately 39,180 psychiatrists were active in the U.S. workforce in 2016, but by 2030, the supply of psychiatrists is expected to decrease by approximately 27 percent given the number of psychiatrists entering, leaving, and changing work hours. Demand for psychiatrists is expected to increase by six percent, resulting in a shortage of psychiatrists by 2030. (Fact Sheet)
Psychologists — At the national level, approximately 92,990 psychologists were active in the U.S. workforce in 2016, but by 2030, the supply of psychologists is expected to increase by approximately 13 percent. Demand for psychologists is expected to increase by seven percent, resulting in a shortage of psychologists by 2030. (Fact Sheet)
Social Workers — Between 2016 and 2030, the national supply of social workers with a graduate degree is projected to grow from 232,900 FTEs to 520,450, or 123 percent. Demand is expected to increase by 15 percent, resulting in a sufficient supply of graduate degree-prepared social workers to meet projected demand growth in 2030. (Fact Sheet)
Additionally, HRSA conducted analysis on state-level projections of supply and demand for behavioral health occupations from 2016 to 2030. The health agency also estimated of the number of new entrants into the behavioral health workforce between 2016 and 2021, and predicts an additional 276,400 behavioral health workers by 2021.

RCB 'Sleigh Ride' Virtual Performance
[embedded content] RICHARDSON – Performing "Sleigh Ride" by composer Leroy Anderson is an annual tradition for members of the Richardson Community Band and their many fans. Sadly, the song won't be performed in front of a live audience this holiday season because of COVID-19 restrictions. The band instead is taking the classic hit to the virtual stage. "We think its important to have a project like this because we think it brings joy. There is something special about music that is just a universal language that other things don't communicate," said Isaac Shutt, Concert Chair for the Richardson Community Band. A total of 60 players participated in the band's first ever video. To make it happen, they recorded themselves at home performing "Sleigh Ride," and editors took care of the rest. "Sleigh Ride is such a must. The piece, everybody knows it and they recognize it. They really associate it with good feelings, family, friends, putting their tree up. Sleigh ride is such an iconic piece," said Robin Owens, Richardson Community Band Conductor The band went all out for the video, wearing holiday attire like sweaters, blinking ties and Santa hats. It's their way to help bring a little normalcy back to the community. The Richardson Community Band is one of many organizations funded in part by the City through the Cultural Arts Commission. "Part of our mission statement is for us to provide means of entertaining and bringing a sense of community to not only Richardson, but I think that extends to all of the North Texas area, the DFW area," said Jane Chambers, Associate Conductor. RCB's "Sleigh Ride" performance will be available Nov. 27 on its Facebook page and its website. Visit www.richardsoncommunityband.org for more information.

South Korea Seeks Bigger Warheads, North Korean ICBM Reportedly On The Move
September 5, 2017 7:22 AM UTC in News
Article Highlights
Seoul says scrapping warhead weight limit will help respond to N.Korea threat
South Korean navy conducts fresh drill
N.Korea seen moving possible ICBM towards west coast - media
Haley says North Korea is "begging for war"
South Korea said on Tuesday an agreement with the United States to scrap a weight limit on its warheads would help it respond to North Korea's nuclear and missile threat after Pyongyang conducted its sixth and largest nuclear test two days ago.
South Korean officials believe more provocation from the reclusive state is possible, despite international outrage over Sunday's test and calls for more sanctions on North Korea.
South Korea's Asia Business Daily, citing an unidentified source, reported on Tuesday that North Korea had been observed moving a rocket that appeared to be an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) towards its west coast.
The rocket started moving on Monday and was spotted moving only at night to avoid surveillance, the report said.
South Korea's defense ministry, which warned on Monday that North Korea was ready to launch an ICBM at any time, said they were unable to confirm the report.
Analysts and South Korean policymakers believe North Korea may engage in another provocation on or around Sept. 9, when the North celebrates its founding day. North Korea's fifth nuclear test fell on the same day last year, reflecting Pyongyang's preference to conduct weapons tests on key holidays for strategic impact.
MILITARY BUILDUP
South Korea is talking to Washington about deploying aircraft carriers and strategic bombers to the Korean peninsula, and has been ramping up its own defenses in the meantime.
South Korea's navy held more drills on Tuesday.
"Today's training is being held to prepare for maritime North Korean provocations, inspect our navy's readiness and to reaffirm our will to punish the enemy," an unidentified South Korean naval officer told a Defence Ministry briefing.
U.S. President Donald Trump and his South Korean counterpart Moon Jae-in agreed on Monday to scrap a warhead weight limit on South Korea's missiles, South Korea's presidential office said, enabling it to strike North Korea with greater force in the event of a military conflict. The White House said Trump gave "in-principle approval" to the move.
The United States and South Korea signed a pact in 1979, a year after the South successfully tested a ballistic missile, with Washington expressing the need for limits on ballistic missile capability over concerns that such tests could harm regional security.
South Korea and the United States are technically still at war with North Korea after the 1950-53 Korean conflict ended with a truce, not a peace treaty.
Both sides have thousands of rockets and artillery pieces aimed at each other across the world's most heavily armed border but the North's rapid development of nuclear weapons and missiles has altered the balance, requiring a stronger response from South Korea, officials say.
"We believe the unlimited warhead payload will be useful in responding to North Korea's nuclear and missile threats," Defence Ministry spokesman Moon Sang-gyun told a briefing on Tuesday.
Under the current guidelines, last changed in 2012, South Korea can develop missiles up to a range of 800 km (500 miles) with a maximum payload of 500 kg (1,102 pounds).
Most of North Korea's missiles are designed to carry payloads of 100-1,000 kg (220-2,205 pounds), according to Nuclear Threat Initiative (NTI), a U.S.-based think thank.
The Hwasong 14 ICBM, tested twice by the North in July, has a potential range of up to 10,000 km (6,210 miles) and is capable of carrying a 300-700 kg (660-1,540 pounds) warhead, according to the NTI.
"PATIENCE NOT UNLIMITED"
On Monday, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley said North Korean leader Kim Jong Un was "begging for war" and urged the 15-member U.N. Security Council to impose the "strongest possible" sanctions to deter him and shut down his trading partners.
Trump held calls with foreign leaders on Monday, including Moon and German Chancellor Angela Merkel, and the White House declared that "all options to address the North Korean threat are on the table."
Haley said the United States would circulate a new Security Council resolution on North Korea this week and wanted a vote on it on Monday.
"War is never something the United States wants. We don't want it now. But our country's patience is not unlimited. We will defend our allies and our territory," Haley said.
South Korean Foreign Minister Kang Kyung-wha said on Tuesday she felt her Chinese counterpart, Wang Yi, was open to additional sanctions on North Korea after they discussed the North's sixth nuclear test.
"I cannot tell you exact details as the minister asked me not to disclose the content of our discussion, but I could sense that China could be open to more sanctions," Kang told lawmakers in parliament after her phone call with Wang on Monday.
Diplomats have said the Security Council could now consider banning North Korean textile exports and its national airline, stop supplies of oil to the government and military, prevent North Koreans from working abroad and add top officials to a blacklist to subject them to an asset freeze and travel ban.
The sanctions imposed after July's missile tests aimed to slash Pyongyang's $3 billion annual export revenue by a third by banning exports of coal, iron, lead and seafood.
China accounted for 92 percent of North Korea's trade in 2016, according to South Korea's government trade promotion agency.

It's the same reason everyone loves "Casablanca" and "It's a Wonderful Life" but merely appreciate "Citizen Kane." Rick Blaine and George Bailey make us feel things. They help us see in the most basic way that altruism is a fundamental part of life, that giving ourselves makes us more complete. Our country seems more divided every day. And then out of nowhere comes this weird little show. And it doesn't divide us. It isn't controversial. It's just nice. It's about things we can all agree on. It could not have come along at a more perfect time. For that reason, it doesn't matter if it ages well. Sometimes things need to be of their times. And sometimes the best way to serve our times is to tell a story that happened a long, long time ago in a decade that seems far away.

Goddamn it, NO. "Let's take something good and ruin it" seems to be the only idea Hollywood has these days.

Would An Independent West Papua Be A Failing State? :: JapanFocus

Would An Independent West Papua Be A Failing State?
David Adam Stott
"Where it cuts across the island of New Guinea, the 141st meridian east remains one of colonial cartography's more arbitrary yet effective of boundaries."1
On July 9, 2011 another irrational colonial border that demarcated Sudan was consigned to history when South Sudan achieved independence. In the process an often seemingly irrevocable principle of decolonisation, that boundaries inherited from colonial entities should remain sacrosanct, has been challenged once again. Indeed, a cautious trend in international relations has been to support greater self-determination for 'nations' without awarding full statehood. Yet Kosovo is another state whose recent independence has been recognised by most major players in the international community.2 In West Papua's case, the territory's small but growing elite had been preparing for independence from the Netherlands in the late 1950s and early 1960s, and Dutch plans envisaged full independence by 1970. However, in 1962 Cold War realpolitik intervened and the United States engineered a transfer of sovereignty to Indonesia under the auspices of the United Nations. To Indonesian nationalists their revolution became complete since West New Guinea had previously been part of the larger colonial unit of the Netherlands East Indies, which had realised its independence as Indonesia in 1949. In West New Guinea, most Papuans felt betrayed by the international community and have been campaigning for a proper referendum on independence ever since.

'Gotham' season 3 episode 10 spoilers: Jim protects Lee and Mario from threats; Robin Lord Taylor comments on Oswald's sexuality
J.Paclibar
Lee (Morena Baccarin) and Mario (James Carpinello) will try to have their rehearsal dinner free from danger in the upcoming brand-new installment of FOX's "Gotham" season 3.
Titled "Mad City: Time Bomb," the good-looking couple prepares for their big night when someone threatens Mario. Luckily for them, Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie) is back on the job and appears to be ready in keeping them, particularly Lee, out of harm's way. Falcone (John Doman) also seeks the help of Jim.
Meanwhile, Nygma (Cory Michael Smith) looks for revenge and Bruce (David Mazouz) learns more about The Court of Owls.
In the promotional clip for the upcoming episode, Falcone says, "Now I know who's behind this, I can take care of it, my way."
Jim warns him, "Do you think you're gonna walk away? I'll find out what happened," to which Falcone replies with, "I'd let it go."
The clip ends with his ominous statement, "Gotham will burn," as a car suddenly explodes.
Down the line, episode 11 dubbed "Mad City: Beware the Green-Eyed Monster," will have everyone racing for a cure as the virus begins to spread in the city and the laboratory that is developing the remedy is compromised.
Elsewhere, Mario and Gordon will have a face-off before the former's wedding, Selina (Camren Bicondova) meets an unexpected face, and Barbara (Erin Richards) comes to Nygma with information about Isabella (Chelsea Spack).
In other news, Robin Lord Taylor who portrays Oswald Cobblepot recently commented on assumptions that his character may be gay and will potentially develop a romantic relationship with Nygma. It can be recalled that as the third season progresses, the two continue to have an unexpected bromance.
During the recently held Rhode Island Comic Con, the actor revealed that people are reaching out to him saying that they are fine with whatever sexuality he has but they do not like the idea of changing the canon. He felt that their statement appears to be contrasting.
"You come to me and you say to me that, 'I'm okay with you being queer, but I'm upset that you're changing a canon character.' What you're saying to me is 'I am homophobic and I am afraid of gay people.' That's exactly what you're saying," he said.
Season 3 episode 10 of "Gotham" airs on Monday, Nov. 21 at 8 p.m. EST. It will be followed by episode 11 on Nov. 28.

Soccer Despair
Posted by Offa Rex under Europe, Happiness, Sports
Everyone knows that soccer is a foreign invasion, but few people know exactly what is wrong with that. More than having to do with its origin, soccer is a European sport because it is all about death and despair. Americans would never invent a sport where the better you get the less you score. Even the way most games end, in sudden death, suggests something of an old-fashioned duel. How could anyone enjoy a game where so much energy results in so little advantage, and which typically ends with a penalty kick out, as if it is the audience that needs to be put out of its misery?

20 Years Ago – The Fall of the Berlin Wall
Posted by Offa Rex under Communism, Economic Liberty, Europe, Liberty, Personal Liberty, Socialism
Twenty years ago today, I sat in front of the TV with my dad, watching the Berlin Wall fall. It was one of the defining moments of my youth. He had served in the U.S. Army in West Germany in the early '70s and had walked along the wall, seeing first hand the division it represented. That night, we sat watching the events unfold, and both of us had tears rolling down our cheeks. Seeing my father's reaction more than anything else impressed on me the enormity of the changes unfolding in Eastern Europe. I hope we never forget that we defeated a real enemy in that war, not just a philosophical paper tiger.
It took the courage and insight of an entire generation to defeat that evil. While the war may not have been as obvious, these heroic men and women defeated an evil just as nefarious as the Naziism defeated a generation earlier.
It is a tribute to Reagan's moral and strategic determination, as it was to everyone else who played their part in bringing down the Wall, that they could see through the sophistries of Soviet propagandists, their Western fellow travelers, and the legions of moral equivocators and diplomatic finessers and simply look at the Wall.
— Why the Berlin Wall Fell, WSJ.com (Nov. 9, 2009)
My children likely will not understand. It will be just so much ancient history—like Vietnam, WWII, the British Empire, Rome and the Pharaohs. Already the memory is fading. But, in case anyone needs reminding, communism is not merely an alternative political lifestyle, it is evil.
Considering the enormity of what it commemorates, the Memorial to the Victims of Communism, dedicated by President Bush yesterday, is striking for its modest proportions: a 10-foot female figure raising a torch at a busy intersection in Washington, D.C. That's a fitting rebuke to an ideology that made a fetish of statuary, and murder, on a monumental scale.
The numbers are almost beyond reckoning. Mao Zedong was responsible for 70 million peacetime murders, according to his biographer Jung Chang. The middle estimate of Stalin's victims is 40 million. Pol Pot slaughtered nearly three million fellow Cambodians in only four years. Ethiopia's Mengistu killed some 1.5 million opponents in the late 1970s, and contributed to the death by starvation of a million others in the 1980s.
Throughout these and other horrors, Communists always managed to find high-profile apologists among the bourgeois intellectuals: Jean-Paul Sartre for Stalin, Noam Chomsky for Pol Pot, and so on. Some, like Sidney Hook, Arthur Koestler and Whittaker Chambers, repented, but most did not. They may not have been witting accomplices to the butchery, quite. But they are the reason why the West was almost fatally late in recognizing the depth of evil it faced in its communist enemy.
Not by coincidence, yesterday's dedication took place on the 20th anniversary of Ronald Reagan's speech at Berlin's Brandenburg Gate, calling on the Soviets to "tear down this wall." Back then, the smart set (and some of his own advisers) said he was a fool for seeking to bring the communist nightmare to an end. Inasmuch as he led the free world in doing so, the memorial is also, inescapably, a tribute to him.

Justice Kennedy on Treason and the Death Penalty
Posted by Offa Rex under Crime, Europe, Law, Quote
What about treason? What about treason? Even — even the — the countries of Europe which have joined the European Convention on Human Rights, I believe they make an exception to the prohibition of the death penalty for treason. You can slaughter your fellow citizens, but if you offend the State you can be put to death.

France Surrenders to Toy Poodle
Posted by Offa Rex under Europe, Stupid Stuff
So much fodder in one little story, I don't even know where to start . . .
Former French president Jacques Chirac was rushed to hospital after being mauled by his own 'clinically depressed' pet dog.
The 76-year-old statesman was savaged by his white Maltese dog – which suffers from frenzied fits and is being treated with anti-depressants.
The animal, named Sumo, had become increasingly violent over the past years and was prone to making 'vicious, unprovoked attacks', Chirac's wife Bernadette said.
Upon questioning, the dog admitted that he had, in fact, attached Chirac. Sumo did, however, note that the former president put up no resistance whatsoever. "I guess that after years of conditioning French politicians can't help but surrender. It's like that miscreant Pavlov messing with those poor beagles," said Sumo
When asked about his depression, Sumo seemed both defeated and defensive, replying, "It is so hard to maintain any self respect. You would be clinically depressed too if you woke up one morning realizing that you were the descendent of wolves but had been reduced to a quiche eating surrender monkey's lap dog."
At least you earn more than a cow . . .

Primary farm producers in the world's developed countries receive about $280 billion a year in government support. In the European Union, farmers receive a third of their income from government subsidies. Beef and veal producers get more than 70% of their income from subsidies.
A typical cow in the European Union receives a government subsidy of $2.20 a day. The cow earns more than 1.2 billion of the world's poorest people.

They have been dating for 5 years.
For their anniversary Cubby wanted to surprise his sweet girlfriend with a photoshoot!
Cubby and Steph are two of our close friends and I know Steph loves photos probably as much as I do so it was the perfect gift!
She thought this was her only surprise of the day, though and she was so excited.
She was skipping and laughing, just really enjoying time with Cub and having new photos together.
She had no idea she was about to get engaged.
I absolutely love everything about these photos.
They tell a love story of two people who follow hard after God and who are truly meant to be together. They are so loved, as you will see in the following photos.
Cubby planned the perfect proposal.
With the help of their friends and family, Steph was truly surprised!
Cubby had to sweet talk her and on we went to the park where everyone was waiting.
I started to cry the minute I saw the large group of loved ones ready to surprise Steph in support of Cubby and this new life together.
I had to pull myself together so I could photograph!

Colton Haaker & Pascal Rauchenecker to Represent Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing at SuperEnduro World Championship
December 1, 2016 Motor Sports NewsWire Motorcycle, Powersports Comments Off on Colton Haaker & Pascal Rauchenecker to Represent Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing at SuperEnduro World Championship
Reigning World Champ and Up-and-Coming Rookie All-Set for Thrilling 2016/17 SEWC Campaign
December 1, 2016 – (Motor Sports Newswire) – Featuring defending SuperEnduro World Champion and recently crowned AMA EnduroCross Champion Colton Haaker together with highly promising SuperEnduro rookie Pascal Rauchenecker, Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing are fired up for success in the 2016/17 FIM SuperEnduro World Championship that kicks off in Poland on December 10th.
Following what has so far been the most successful year of his racing career, Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing's Colton Haaker returns to the SuperEnduro World Championship with just one goal in mind – to successfully defend his title in the 2016/17 series.
Fresh off his impressive 2016 AMA EnduroCross Championship campaign where he claimed five wins and a total of eight podium results from the eight-round series, Colton has his sights set on retaining his top form at the European-based SuperEnduro series. Racing aboard Husqvarna FE 350 machinery, he will aim for victory in each of the four rounds of the soon-to-start championship.
Austrian Pascal Rauchenecker, who is excited to continue his first year of enduro competition by making the switch to indoor competition and the SuperEnduro series, completes the Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing team.
Claiming three Enduro 1 podium results during his debut Enduro World Championship campaign the 23-year-old has been working hard ahead of the first SuperEnduro event in Poland.
The four-round 2016/2017 FIM SuperEnduro World Championship kicks off on December 10th, with the season opening GP of Poland taking place in Krakow's Tauron Arena.
Ahead of the opening round of the 2016/17 FIM SuperEnduro World Championship series, Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing is pleased to release the official pre-season team video here.
Colton Haaker: "I truly am excited about getting back to racing in Europe and getting my SuperEnduro championship started. Winning the title last year was incredible. I was one of three riders gunning for that championship, the fact that it came down to the last corner of the last race of the series is something I'll never forget. I learned so much during the championship last year. I started out off the radar a little but a lot has changed since then. Winning the US Endurocross title recently has been another important step in my career. I really feel good right now and I feel like I'm in a much better place starting this SuperEnduro championship. I know the competition and the tracks will be tough, but I'm excited for the challenge. Defending my championship title is what I'm focused on, I can't wait to get over to Poland and kick things off."
Pascal Rauchenecker: "Competing in the SuperEnduro World Championship is something I'm really excited about. It's something that's completely new to me. I know I don't have any real SuperEnduro experience, but to be a part of the series is something I'm very happy about. I've followed SuperEnduro and Endurocross closely this year, and have trained as much as I could after the ISDE to be ready for the first race. There's going to be so much for me to learn, but my goal is to improve at each race and just to do my best. It's great having Colton as my team-mate. He's the number one rider right now, so I know I can learn from him. The first race in Poland will be a very special event for me."

Delhi: Sena, Congress inching towards wider understanding? Sanjay Raut expected to meet Rahul Gandhi today
For the uninitiated, the Shiv Sena on Saturday hailed West Bengal CM and Trinamool Congress (TMC) supremo Mamata Banerjee's triumph in the Assembly elections over the BJP but objected to her scathing criticism of the Congress party.

Delhi: Sena, Congress inching towards wider understanding? Sanjay Raut expected to meet Rahul Gandhi today | File photos
Days after Shiv Sena objected to Mamata Banerjee's scathing criticism of the Congress party, Sena spokesperson Sanjay Raut is expected to meet Congress leader Rahul Gandhi today.
As per the report by the NDTV, Sena sources has told that it will be a routine meet regarding the alliance in Maharashtra, however, the meeting will happen amids the discussions be inching towards a wider understanding.
The Sena has also distanced itself from Mamata's "where is UPA" and "what is UPA" remarks and is insisting that the Congress party should be an integral part of the non-BJP front in the run-up to the next Lok Sabha elections. Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut maintained that Congress should be included in the anti-BJP front as it has a base in other states and urged everyone to come together on one platform.
Further, he clarified that no one has questioned Sonia Gandhi's leadership and noted that the idea is to move in tandem with the Congress party. In its editorial mouthpiece 'Saamana', the Shiv Sena also said that those who don't want UPA should make their stand clear in public, instead of creating confusion by talking behind the back.
It also noted that even if those, who are fighting the BJP, feel that Congress should cease to exist, then this attitude is the "biggest threat". He added that if there is no unity among the opposition parties, then the talk of creating a political alternative to the BJP should cease. Raut referred to the ruling MVA government and said there are three different parties in the state. "There can't be a front by keeping the Congress at bay.
Congress has a base in other states. Everyone should come together.'' Raut has echoed what the NCP Chief Sharad Pawar said that there was no question of omitting the Congress in the non-BJP front and it has to be a part of it. The Sena leader has spoken days after the Congress party slammed Mamata for calling TMC the only viable alternative to the BJP. The party feels TMC is confined only to one state and cannot be an alternative to the BJP. However, the dichotomy is apparent as Sena was until recently BJP's ally in Maharashtra and at the Centre and a crucial part of the NDA.
The Sena and Congress have been opposed to each other, barring the time when party supremo Bal Thackeray had supported the imposition of emergency and extended the party's support to the Congress in the Mumbai Mayoral election.
Raut has chosen to make a strong case for the inclusion of Congress in the non-BJP front when there is perceptible camaraderie between Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray and Congress President Sonia Gandhi. Besides, Raut has come quite close to Congress MP Rahul Gandhi and both the parties have hinted that their alliance will remain in place in the state assembly and general elections.

A thoughtful, heartwarming, and playful production of Klassen's awesome conclusion to his Hat trilogy. The music captures the mood perfectly and even elevates the kind, irreverent nature of the story. Unlike the other stories in the trilogy, this audiobook is a perfect standalone listening experience that does not require the physical book for full enjoyment.

Q: Heroku delayed_job dependencies I am running an app on heroku and I wanted to perform a map/reduce style operation, where I can fire jobs to workers and then once the results are done, fire the reduction jobs.
This would mean I need to call out some (reduce) jobs as being dependent on others (map).
Can I achieve this using heroku?
I saw this fork, but is not actively under development.
https://github.com/mceachen/delayed_job
For example, a distributed merge sort -- with sort jobs and merge jobs and merge jobs depend on the data from the sort jobs.

A: DelayedJob has been forked around quite a bit, and the repos can be misleading. It's still in active use and development via this repo:
https://github.com/collectiveidea/delayed_job
I do believe that DelayedJob can support what you're asking for. You can start heroku workers to run rake jobs:work, which will start a worker munching on job entries in the DelayedJob queue.
a) If it can be ensured that your sort jobs and your merge jobs enter the DelayedJob queue in a required order, then your dequeuing worker can interleave processing of sort and merge jobs, given that the merge jobs have a dependency on a sort job having just occured.
b) Could the sort job and merge job be packaged into one 'job', wherein a worker dequeues this pair of operations as a whole, and processes them both? This would be a better solution if you want to scale up your number of heroku workers and have multiple, concurrent DelayedJob workers chomping on your DJ queue simultaneously.

Before 80 fans at the Charlestown Civic Center.
Fang pinned Chris Gile to open the evening. Fang was again at a size disadvantage against the stars and stripes Jamz clad Giles. Giles slapped Fang around the ring for a several minutes before Fang came back with some Stinger Splashes and a cross-body splash for the win.
Rough Rida Rashaad & D-Bo defeated Sergio & Ranger Milton. Rashaad is a hefty man but very mobile, shockingly mobile, he hit a few reverse heel kicks like Johnny Jeter utilized heavily, however his offense was cut short when attempting a Vader-bomb and Sergio shoved him off the ropes. The heels isolated him. Rashaad was able to get the hot tag to D-Bo after the heels grabbed Rashaad's gallon jug of purple drank and taunted the crowd with it. D-bo cleaned house and pinned Sergio following a sidewalk slam.
Al Barone pinned Shiloh. Another size mismatch as Barone nearly dwarfed Shiloh. Shiloh started out trying for single leg take downs but was stuffed each time. Barone grabs him and hits a black hole slam then begins toying with Shiloh. He begs Shiloh to hit him, Shiloh tires but Barone laughs it off. Shiloh comes back with a drop kick but Barone grabs him mid-air for a Samoan Drop and the pin.
Dirty Money pinned Lumpy Magoo. Lumpy it appears is supposed to sort of a manchild wrestling savant, sort of like Pee Wee Herman meets Eugene. Money tries to lock up but Lumpy ducks to tie his boots. Dirty Money gets enraged and starts beating Lumpy corner to corner until he misses a splash. Lumpy makes a comeback and tries to go up top but decides the ropes are too high, he climbs back down only to get hit with an impaler DDT for the pin fall.
The Mobile Homers won a 3-way tag match over The War Party & Theta Lambda Psi. Adam Revolver found himself overwhelmed by the two heel teams pretty quickly. The heels however couldnt agree on who would get the pin and dissension broke out. Manbeast & Revolver sneaked up behind the four heels and gave them a group head knock. Manbeast helped clean house and Revolver hit a Russian Leg Sweep on Garrison from Theta Lambda Psi for the pin.
Rudy Switchblade pinned Turcan Celik. Rudy worked well with the still green Turcan. This was Rudy's lucha-influenced fast paced style against the Insurgency's powerhouse. Rudy tried to outpace Turcan early but Turcan laid in a couple on shoulder blocks then slammed Rudy down to the mat. Rudy got the where-with-all to duck Turcan's next charge and let him throw himself from the ring. Rudy taunted Turcan from the ropes and enraged the Insurgent. Turcan got back in the ring and slowed Rudy with a rear headlock. Rudy came back though and grabs a pin fall with an Oklahoma Roll.
Igotta Brewski pinned TV Champion JD Michaels in a non-title match. Man JD Michaels just screams X-Pac heat. I dont know what it is with this guy but I just dont want to see him the second he comes out. He can wrestle, he looks like a wrestler but something just makes doesnt click for me. Brewski is a massive man, looks similar to Bruiser Brody if he had been in Animal House. Brewski can move for a man of his mass as well. He connects with the crowd and makes his matches fun. My only critique is please change the first name. Igotta Brewski comes off way too cheesy. As for the match JD spent most of it taunting the one guy he was getting legit heat from. Brewski absorbed JD Michaels offense and watched Michaels duck out as Brewski generated his own. Brewski finally chased Michael back into the ring and finished him off with a spear.
Nick Dinsmore, Tag Champion Rob Conway & Joey Matthews defeated Apoc, Vaughn Lilas & OVW Heavyweight Champion Anthony Bravado. Jamin Olivencia accompanied the heels out but found himself ejected quickly as he tried to trip up Matthews. Matthews while making sure the ref was ejecting Jamin found himself overwhelmed by the heels. Conway lead the crowd in encouraging Matthews back to his feet. Once Conway got the hot tag all the face cleaned house and hit their finishers together for a 3-way pin-fall and submission ending.
