(d) The right to redeem provided for by section 2410 (c) of title 28 shall not arise in any case in which the subordinate lien or interest of the United States derives from a guaranteed or insured loan.
[(e) Repealed. Pub. L. 105–368, title VI, § 602(c)(1),Nov. 11, 1998, 112 Stat. 3346.]

I think he will be back
You are probably right. He just has more important things to wrap up and they had a big snow.
I dropped a few credits on ISU beating the spread tonight. Guess I can probably kiss them goodbye.
I think he is meeting the team in Lawrence?
I guess there were two threads, I am a bit behind the news.

May 6, 2016
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) -- North Carolina has suspended guard Leslie McDonald for three games.
The specific reason for the suspension was not disclosed in a statement issued Wednesday, roughly five hours before the Tar Heels' game against Georgia Tech.
Coach Roy Williams says McDonald "did not do what we expect of our student-athletes," and McDonald says he did not take care of his responsibilities as a student-athlete.
McDonald missed the past three games with an injured right knee. Williams says the junior guard would have been medically cleared to return this week.
The school says McDonald will return Feb. 2 when UNC plays Virginia Tech.
He missed all of last season with a right knee injury and is averaging 8.4 points this season while shooting 43 percent from 3-point range.

Two parents have been charged with involuntary manslaughter in the death of their month-old child, who died after being left in a hot car for two hours.
A statement posted by the Statesville Police Department on its Facebook page said Sherrie Tiesha Clay and Shakee Duquan Robinson, both 29, were arrested Monday. The statement says they also are charged with felony child abuse.
Police were contacted by Iredell Memorial Hospital on July 27 regarding an infant suffering from heat exposure. The child was transferred to Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center and died there.
Investigators say the child was inside the car for two hours before being discovered by an aunt.
Clay and Robinson are each being held under $200,000 bond in the Iredell County jail. Records don't show if they have attorneys.

Miami, FL - January 20, 2013
Three former foster youth will attend President Obama's upcoming inauguration and share their stories with lawmakers this weekend on behalf of the Congressional Caucus on Foster Youth.
California Congresswoman Karen Bass invited the three youths to attend, hoping that witnessing the historic occasion will inspire them to reach goals in their own lives.
Bass will also introduce the youths to fellow lawmakers to raise awareness around the need for change within the nation's foster care system. The caucus is focusing on improving education outcomes for foster youths this year.
Florida Congressman Alcee Hastings says many issues the caucus addresses are often considered too local until tragedy brings them to national attention. He says the group can bring local stakeholders together on a national level to share in a dialogue.

Yadkin County, NC -- Deputies arrested and charged two people for stealing a prescription drug pad from a Huntersville medical center to obtain Oxycodone, according to the sheriff's office.
Officers arrested 22-year-old Randall Darron Pruitt, of Yanceyville, and 37-year-old Lelia Gene Settle in the case that goes back to March 2013.
Investigators began looking into the case after they learned the suspects had been picking up multiple prescriptons from pharmacies across North Carolina.
Deputies say they arrested Pruitt and Settle after they found used needles and syringes, along with other drug paraphernalia, in a mobile home on Cleary Road.
Deputies also found several fraudulent prescriptions in the home.
Investigators say the suspects used different names and would drop off the prescriptions before returning with fake IDs, or in some cases their real IDs, to pick up the drugs.
Pruitt is charged with obtaining a controlled substance by fraud and trafficking in opiates by possession. He's being held in the Yadkin County Jail under a $15,000 bond.
Settle faces two counts of possession with intent to manufacture, sell and deliver a schedule II controlled substance; two counts of selling and delivering a controlled substance; obtaining a controlled substance by fraud; and trafficking in opiates by possession.
And, these two aren't alone. The sheriff's office says similar arrests have been made in Statesville and Elkin, and more suspects, or more charges, could come in Huntersville, North Wilkesboro and Mocksville.

News and Recent Developments
The History of Solar Cooking in Ecuador
In Ecuador, solar cooking has had support from the government, largely through the involvement of representatives of a semi-official unit known as IECAIM, or the Ecuadorian Research Institute for Women's Training. The group was organized to serve as a focal point for the country in connection with the work of the United Nations agency called the International Research and Training Institute for the Promotion of Women (INSTRAW), a specialized agency focused on the issues of women. One of its areas of interest was the use of new and renewable forms of energy, which encompassed solar cooking and solar drying of foods. IECAIM took up that challenge and has been the most active promoter of solar cooking in Ecuador, under the leadership of its Director, Fabiola Cuvi Ortiz. IECAIM has been active since 1986 in providing training courses for women on building and using solar cookers. Workrooms were established for meetings and training courses. Initially, 300 solar cookers were built, mostly women themselves, who were also trained in the new mode of cooking. Both newspapers and television media were used to publicize the efforts and results of this work.
After the pilot efforts proved to be very successful, promotional activity was carried out in many places where women and girls congregate, schools, factories, and women's groups. In a situation of unrest (a border dispute with Peru), cookers were provided for the displaced families. In the course of this work, four small production industries have been started, building cookers to sell to others, with work done by women. In total, nearly 1,000 cookers have been disseminated in Ecuador. The Institute has also published two books, one on solar oven construction, and the other on cooking.

If asked, "Do you frighten your children?" most parents would reply with an indignant denial. Yet it is easy for the kindest parents unwittingly to terrify their children.
Such fears cause unhappiness at the time and can have a permanent effect on the personality, later producing a timid and diffident adult afraid of plunging into life and wholly unable to enjoy it.
We are all guilty of talking about our own affairs when children are in the room. Your small daughter may seem absorbed in dressing her dolls, but she does not miss much of the adult conversation going on around her. Conversation about war, illness, death or financial difficulties, overheard and only half understood, can fill a child with unnecessary fears.
Needless to say, no child should listen to quarrels between his parents. D.H. Lawrence was one of those whose childhood was made wretched in this way, and his frightening experience find expression in many of his novels, and in that very moving poem "Discord in Childhood."
Another way in which we can frighten our children is by suggestion. If mother fears storms, so will her small son. If his nurse is obviously afraid of walking through a field of cows, the child will be the same.
If a child's parents let him see they are anxious about his calorie-intake, his weight or his tendency to chills, these fears, too, will be passed on to the child, and he will stand a good chance of growing up into one of those adults who are worried about their health and afraid to take risk.
Conversely, parents can deliberately use these powers of suggestion to banish their children's fears.
Some mothers tell their children, "you will love going to the dentist", and paint a pleasant picture of rides in the dentist's chair, and coffee in a cafe afterwards.
This is a useful sort of a suggestion if the child is not hurt, but if the dentist does happen to touch a nerve, the suggestion will be for ever rejected, and the child will have gained a far more serious fear in the loss of faith in his mother. The best suggestion to make when going to the dentist is, "It might hurt a little, but we know you are brave."
Another basis for a child's fears can be a lack of security. He may fear the loss of his parent's love. It is cruel for a mother to say, "If you are naughty, mummy won't love you".
She can make it quite clear that she does not always love the way he behaves, and expects some improvement there, but the fact she loves him remains unalterable. If a child feels unloved and unsafe in his own family, he will be a prey to all kinds of fears.
Sometimes a child's fears may seem trivial to a grown-up, but it is a mistake to underestimate their importance. To a child the difference between reality and imagination is confused, and the bogeys and bears that wait in the shadows are very real to him. No amount of prosaic, logical, brisk, grown-up reasoning can convince him otherwise.
As it is usually the clever, imaginative children who have such fears, the remedy is to occupy their minds elsewhere, and give their active brains plenty of scope for work at school and interesting occupations at home. It is for the most part true to say that fears in a child will permanently cramp his personality, and so limit his usefulness and happiness as an adult.
On the other hand, some fears are not undesirable and have their uses. If you were asked my original question, "Do you frighten your children?" a good parent might have replied, emphatically, "Yes". She might go on to say, "I have deliberately made them afraid of prussic acid and steaming kettles". And so is running between parked vehicles a danger to them.
As a child grows older, we must not let him lean on his parents to the subjugation of his own initiative. He wants to stand on his own feet, so parents have to teach him to use his own judgement.
In other words, parents now actually teach him fear. This fear is not irrational panic, but fear in its controlled form, which I call caution. The child has to have some appreciation of danger for his own protection. We do not need to tell him terrifying stories about AIDS and malaria but to teach him sensible protections.
This way children are taught not to touch fire, live wires, turn on the gas, climb out of high windows, strike matches, hide in railway tunnels, or go away with strangers. They learn to be careful of traffic, to keep their bicycles in good working order, to be aware of dangerous animals, and to respect tides and currents when swimming.
In quite another way fear can provide a very real benefit. It can be a useful emotional outlet.
We have all watched a baby laughing as he is tossed up and caught again in his daddy's arms. The baby is playing at fear and likes to pretend he is falling. When baby plays hide-and-seek, he is still stimulating his sense of fear. All the chasing games of early schooldays have in them an element of fear.
Older children like thrilling detective stories and cowboy films. The traditional entertainment of midnight feast has always been creepy ghost stories whispered in the dark. Indeed, the whole pleasure of midnight feast at all is based on fear. The possibility of being caught and punished by those in authority contributes much to the enjoyment. All these activities have element of fear.
We no longer tell our children that if they are naughty we shall give them to a policeman.or lock them up in a dark cupboard. It must be confessed that mothers are still sometimes guilty of using Father as a bogey and saying, " just you wait till your daddy comes home!"
It is wicked to frighten a child We need not, however, allow the pendulum to swing too far the other way. It is said that fear of punishment is a deterrent to many crimes.
Children should grow up with some respect for law and order if they are to live happily in any community. A realisation that all his actions, all his thoughts, too, have their consequences good or bad, teach him valuable self-control.

But less likely to get unemployment insurance benefits
For Black workers, it's a one-two punch to their economic security: Blacks are not only disproportionately more likely than Whites or Hispanics to experience long-term unemployment, they are less likely than Whites to benefit from unemployment insurance (UI), a new report from the Urban Institute's Unemployment and Recovery project shows. Even when taking into account differences in education, past employment, and reasons for unemployment, there is an eight percent gap in the receipt of UI benefits between Whites versus Blacks and Latinos. African Americans, 11.6 percent of the labor force in February, were 22.9 percent of those unemployed for more than six months. Latinos were 15.7 percent of the labor force but 18.1 percent of the long-term unemployed. The comparable figures for Whites were 72.7 and 59.1 percent, respectively. Continue Reading →

Chiyo (チヨ, Chiyo) was a retired counsellor of Sunagakure. She was also a famed puppeteer, the leader of Sunagakure's Puppet Brigade and a medical-nin.
Chiyo, often called "Honoured Grandmother Chiyo" (チヨバア様, Chiyo-baasama) by the Sunagakure villagers, was the village's poison,[4] and puppet expert. She and her brother Ebizō were highly revered in Sunagakure and were known as the "Honoured Siblings" (御姉弟, Gokyōdai).[5] Chiyo was very knowledgeable when it came to handling poisons and used her skills often during the Second Shinobi World War, only to be countered numerous times by Tsunade's medical expertise. This caused Chiyo to hold a grudge against Tsunade, who she came to call "that slug-girl" (あのナメクジ娘, Ano Namekuji-musume), or the "Slug Princess" in the English translations.[6] During the war, she also fought Hanzō and his salamander numerous times, learning how frequently it can use its venom and eventually developing an antidote against it.[7]
Chiyo was responsible for sealing the One-Tailed Shukaku inside of Gaara under the orders of the Fourth Kazekage,[8] noting that of the Kazekage's three children, Gaara was the only compatible one.[9] Some time after this, Chiyo and her brother removed themselves from the affairs of Sunagakure and spent their time fishing together, where Chiyo would play jokes on her brother by pretending she had died just to scare him.[10]
Chiyo also expressed a desire to kill Sakumo Hatake to avenge the killing of her son and daughter-in-law, which left her grandson Sasori orphaned.[11] After that Chiyo tried to help Sasori ease the pain by caring for him and teaching him the Puppet Technique. Chiyo would later watch Sasori create his first puppets that would resemble his own parents. This was meant to fill the void of his parents dying, however, when Sasori left Sunagakure he abandoned the puppets, showing that he gave up on them.[12][13]
As a veteran, Chiyo and her brother Ebizō possess great wisdom, such that Baki requested their assistance in the village's greatest danger. However, they had little motivation to serve Sunagakure any longer, as they retired and felt that the next generation should look out for themselves. The siblings were rather disappointed when the village was showing to be so reliant on others. Chiyo could be very mischievous, as she enjoyed playing dead or acting senile to fool others. Chiyo would often also jump to conclusions as seen when she attacked Kakashi Hatake because she mistook him for his father Sakumo.
Chiyo loved her grandson, Sasori, a great deal despite how much he had fallen, and was fully willing to grant life to the puppets that he created, at the cost of her own; this was said to be her dream. In fact, it was only Sasori's involvement in Akatsuki that she was willing to grant Baki's request for assistance. This love also led her to bear a grudge against Sakumo Hatake for killing Sasori's parents, and as such, she initially tried to kill his son Kakashi, mistaking him for his father. Chiyo showed care and respect for Sakura Haruno, despite the latter being a disciple of Chiyo's rival. She also showed regret and remorse for sealing the One-Tailed Shukaku into Gaara, and gave her life to revive the latter as a way of repentance.
Despite her age, Chiyo was still a very powerful ninja, and was well respected throughout Sunagakure. Even her rival, Tsunade, had great respect for her. With Sakura Haruno's assistance, she was also able to defeat Sasori. Her skills and renown were great enough for Kabuto to reincarnate her for the Fourth Shinobi World War.
Puppet Master
Chiyo was a renowned master of the Puppet Technique, famous for her abilities in both creating and controlling them, to the point of being an invaluable icon for Sunagakure. She passed such skills on to her grandson, Sasori, claiming that the technique was traditional in their family. She modified two normal unarmed puppets to have intense battle capabilities, to the point where they were capable of standing up against the Third Kazekage (known as the strongest Kage in the history of Sunagakure) who was converted into a Human Puppet by Sasori. These puppets were equipped with wire strings that extend from both of the puppets hands. When connected they have the ability to cut through most things, including Sasori's, Thousand Hands Manipulation Force. She also could use the Puppet Performance: Skilful Achievement with a Human Body technique, which allowed her to effectively control a human if she had no puppets left in her arsenal. She had great skill with chakra threads, as she could place them onto other puppets without her opponent noticing and suppressing them to the point that they became invisible, as well as using them to control and fire weapons.
Chiyo, like Sasori, modified a part of her body and turned her right arm into a mechanical one. She normally kept it outfitted with a chakra shield, and could replace it with any puppet arm if something were to happen to it. She also installed this shield on the Mother and Father puppets. Her strongest puppets, however, were the Chikamatsu Collection created by the first Puppet Technique user, Monzaemon Chikamatsu with which she was able to to control each of them with only one finger per puppet — a skill which signified her as a master puppeteer. These puppets were extremely powerful, using teamwork to perform powerful attacks, and were equipped with powerful techniques such as the Three Jewels Suction Crushing and the Sealing Technique: Lion Closing Roar. With the assistance of Sakura, Chiyo's ten puppets were able to overpower Sasori's one hundred puppets, though most of the Chikamatsu Collection was destroyed in the process.
Other Skills
While preferring to use puppets in battle, Chiyo demonstrated during her misjudgement towards Kakashi's identity that she was highly skilled in taijutsu from how easily she fought back Naruto and his clone.[14] She possessed advanced knowledge of fūinjutsu as she was the one responsible for sealing Shukaku into Gaara. She was also a highly capable medical-nin, and while having some healing skills, she mainly used her medical knowledge as a poison expert, which allowed her to create powerful poisons that in her entire life have only been countered by Tsunade, who is herself renowned as the world's greatest medical-nin. She has also remarked to have faced Uchiha members in the past and knows how to deal with genjutsu.[15] She created a life-giving technique, one that would result in her own death if it were used, that she wanted to use for Sasori in order to give life to his puppet parents. She has stated that she used to fight with Hanzō and his salamander all the time; allowing her to know the antidote ingredient list to counter the poisonous gas released by the salamander.

Part II
Kazekage Rescue Arc
After Gaara is kidnapped and Kankurō is poisoned by Sasori, Baki requests that Chiyo help in curing the poison. Chiyo initially refuses, no longer concerned with the fate of the village, but Sasori's involvement persuades her into helping. In spite of this, Sasori's poison is beyond her expertise to cure. Much to her own dismay, she admits that Tsunade would be the only one capable of healing him. Even with such an admission, she is not willing to contact Tsunade, believing firmly that asking other villages for help makes their own look weaker.
When Team 7 arrives after learning of Gaara's kidnapping, Chiyo instantly attacks Kakashi Hatake under the mistaken impression that he is his father: Konoha's White Fang, who had killed Sasori's parents. Naruto blocks the attack and Ebizō clears up the confusion, after which Chiyo plays the attack off as senility. With that over, Sakura is able to heal Kankurō, much to Chiyo's surprise. Once Kankurō is healed, Team 7 prepares to go after the Akatsuki to rescue Gaara, and Chiyo joins them as an adviser from Sunagakure. She explained to Naruto what a tailed beast was, and confessed to sealing the One-Tail into Gaara. When Team 7 encountered Itachi Uchiha, she remained in the rear in order to cancel any genjutsu that was cast on her comrades.
After reaching the Akatsuki hideout, Team 7 splits up to pursue the only two members present; Kakashi and Naruto go after Deidara, leaving Chiyo and Sakura to fight against Sasori. The battle goes in their favour at first, with Chiyo controlling Sakura to help her avoid Sasori's attacks and smash his "puppet armour", Hiruko. The destruction of his puppet forces Sasori to reveal himself, which also reveals the fact that he hasn't aged a day since departing the village twenty years earlier. Now unmasked, Sasori brings out the first of his human puppets: the Third Kazekage. This puppet is decidedly more powerful than Hiruko, and Chiyo is forced to summon Sasori's mother and father puppets just to fend off its powerful attacks. Even with the two puppets, Chiyo is overwhelmed by the Third's Iron Sand techniques, which prove to be a puppet's biggest weakness, leaving Sakura to be the one to destroy the Kazekage puppet.
Down another puppet, Sasori reveals the secret of his youth: he has converted himself into a puppet. The only living part of him remaining is his heart, making him difficult to kill. Since neither she nor Sakura can destroy his puppet body, Chiyo summons the Chikamatsu Collection. To mock the summoning, Sasori summons one hundred of his puppets, a feat only possible thanks to his unique body. In the ensuing battle, Chiyo destroys many of Sasori's puppets and vice versa. Both collections seem to be about equal in power because, despite the fact that Sasori's overwhelm Chiyo's in numbers, the quality and teamwork of her puppets far surpass his. She is wounded and poisoned by one of Sasori's puppets that slashes her right shoulder, but the puppet was quickly disposed of was quickly by Sakura, who then applied an antidote on Chiyo.
Using a special chakra-sealing orb given to her by Chiyo, Sakura tries to seal Sasori's Chakra Pathway System, only to catch his empty puppet body. Sasori, having ditched it moments before, simply goes to a spare body and tries to stab Chiyo with a poisoned sword. Sakura takes the blow in her place, giving Chiyo a chance to stab Sasori through the heart with his parents' puppets in the form of a hug. Before Sasori dies, he insists that at least Sakura cannot be saved. Chiyo disagrees, and uses a special life force-transferring technique to heal her. While this would normally be fatal for the average shinobi, Sakura is was not quite dead, thus Chiyo does not die in the process. After Sasori dies, Chiyo speculates that he had actually taken the attack willingly, since he simply wanted his parents to hug him.
After reuniting with Kakashi and Naruto, who have succeeded in retrieving Gaara, Sakura pronounces Gaara dead, causing Naruto to break down in tears. Although Chiyo tries to calm him down, Naruto lashes out and blames her for his death, saying that if she had not sealed Shukaku within Gaara he would not have died. In an attempt to apologise for what she had done, Chiyo tries to revive Gaara. Although she initially has too little chakra left to do so, Naruto donates some of his own to help finish the resurrection. With Gaara's revival, Chiyo realises that the future of Konoha and the Sand will be much better than things were back in her day, and then dies peacefully, with her view of the world changed thanks to Naruto.
Shinobi World War Arc
In preparation for the Fourth Shinobi World War, Chiyo is reincarnated by Kabuto Yakushi to fight against the Allied Shinobi Forces. After being mobilised, she becomes part of the group that Chūkichi requests assistance from, alongside Kimimaro and Hanzō. With this, Chiyo notes that the technique had been improved since Tobirama Senju's time and that the one who reincarnated them must be something else, to bind so many souls at once.
Encountering the remnants of the Surprise Attack Division, where Deidara was imprisoned, Chiyo compliments Kankurō on defeating Sasori. When the opposition begins their retreat with her group in pursuit, she swears to take revenge against whoever reincarnated her, while concerned about being embarrassed if they forced her to play dead. This results in an argument with Hanzō, who calls her a "puppet hag", to which she retorts that he was a "big snorkel geezer".
After Hanzō summons his salamander and recognising the poisonous gas it exhaled, Chiyo informs Kankurō that the creature requires five minutes to generate and use the toxin but that she knew the antidote, having fought with Hanzō before. Engaging the reinforcements from the Fifth Division with Kimimaro the following day, using an incapacitated samurai as a puppet, Chiyo observes the arrival of Naruto's shadow clone. Remarking that his height wasn't the only thing that had changed, she is then seemingly struck by Naruto's Wind Release: Rasenshuriken.
When the Impure World Reincarnation was released, Chiyo — who had still been battling the Alliance's members — was enveloped in a light of sorts before beginning to deconstruct. As her spirit ascended, she asserted that she could finally die once again as her soul returned to the afterlife.

Holocaust Survivor Children Missing Identity
Holocaust Survivor Children try to locate information regarding their past
with the help of the Missing Identity Project.
Holocaust Survivors who were children at the time are still trying to locate information regarding their past, and perhaps you can help them. Some hope to find surviving relatives who can tell them about their parents and family.
Others hope to find out the most basic information about themselves - their own name, their birth date and birthplace, the names of their parents. Sometimes the name these Holocaust Survivors had as children was not the name given to them by their parents when they were born. This was a cover name used during WWII or an invented name given to the young Holocaust Survivor after the war, when crossing borders illegally on their way to their new homeland.
By looking at the photos and reading the profile of each young Holocaust Survivor Child, you may be able to help.
