how to extract properties in a patch at a certain time domain?
hi all
I need to obtain an average of pressure,velocity and temperature at a patch at last for example 100 time steps.how can i do this?i should add a sampledict at first before starting to run(if yes what codes should add to controldict?) or can it be done after running?if latter what are the codes?
Thanks for advices.
you can use patchAverage utility with keys -latestTime (for latest time slice) or key -time .... (to set time range)
thanks.could you give an example?is it correct? patchAverage rightside -time .003 .004
Then where the property is assign?
--- "patchAverage -time '0.01,0.02' alpha1 heated" to see patch average 'heated' of field 'alpha1' for times 0.01 and 0.02
--- "patchAverage -time '0.01:0.02' alpha1 heated" to see patch average 'heated' of field 'alpha1' for times in range from 0.01 to 0.02 (including boundaries)
thanks alot!
So if we want average of for example pressure on all the cells of a patch only in one time step it's true:patchAverage -time '.01' p rightpatch
Isn't it?
What you mean about all boundaries in the case of time range?
i mean: from from time t1 to time t2, including time points t1 and t2
grasped!thanks.is that correct what I said about one time step?does it give average of field over all the cells on the specified patch?
thanks again.
no, it will return average of external faces values (not the same as cell values). but this is true for zeroGradient patches (because values at cell centres and face centres, belonging to patch are same)
thank you very much dear matvej.

Today, Rep. Dave Joyce announced he's signed on as an original cosponsor to the Helping Heroes Fly Act, which will improve airport security screening processes for wounded and severely disabled service members and veterans. Joyce released the following statement:
"While we'll never be able to repay our heroic servicemen and women for the sacrifices they've made in the line of duty, it should be our top priority to make their lives back home as easy and comfortable as possible. The Helping Heroes Fly Act will ensure that our wounded warriors are able to get through airport security quickly and comfortably and avoid any disruptive or difficult screening practices. America's servicemen and women are the best and brightest in the world and deserve a comfortable transition back home for protecting the freedoms we enjoy every day."
The Helping Heroes Fly Act was introduced by Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) and will require that TSA enhance its Operations Center program to ensure that our nation's heroes are shown their due respect and appreciation ; provide training to all screeners on the protocols to prevent discrepancies in how wounded warriors utilizing the program are treated; enhance the program's efficacy in meeting the needs of wounded warriors by mandating ongoing consultations between TSA officials and advocacy organizations; and ensure Congressional oversight of the program by implementing annual reporting.

Making mouse magic with the Kinect Magic Cursor
Today's project come us via friend of the Gallery, David Renton and is another take on using the Kinect as a mouse pointer.
Kinect Magic Cursor
I'm releasing 2 very small applications for Windows that are nevertheless invaluable. There is already software out there that does these jobs, but this is my take it them using XNA4.
The first release came about as I was asked to do a magic wall thing using Kinect and I managed to put this together in about 5 hours (finished it at 2.30am), so it might not be perfect, but it's worth a go. It basically allows you to use Kinect connected to a Windows 7 pc to control the windows mouse pointer and perform left clicks. Once you run the software you simply use your right hand to control the mouse pointer by standing in front of Kinect and moving your hand. To left-click you just raise your left hand above your shoulder. It certainly has plenty of uses, an interactive presentation projected onto a wall, which would then be controlled by users standing in front of the wall and controlling the pointer with their hand is our initial thoughts, but it could have so many other uses.
There are various keyboard controls to set things within the application.
ESC key Quits the application.
K key toggles between kinect and mouse control.
LEFT-ARROW & RIGHT-ARROW keys change the scale, which is basically how far you need to move your hand in each direction to move the pointer to the edge of the screen.
UP-ARROW & DOWN-ARROW keys allow you to adjust the angle of the Kinect camera.
SPACE key freezes the video feed into the application, which is useful if you are running on a slow PC.
S key starts the video feed again.
You will need a Windows7 PC, Kinect SDK v1.5 and XNA4 runtime installed and obviously a Kinect (XBOX360 Kinect or Windows Kinect).

Politico, January 10, 2011
Lawmakers on Sunday said they still expect to have a spirited but delayed and toned-down debate to repeal the healthcare reform law after Saturday's shooting in Arizona. Within hours of the massacre, Majority Leader Eric Cantor postponed the House's entire legislative agenda for the week, including the vote on repealing the law, which was planned for Wednesday. His office said he'll make further announcements on the schedule this week. Republicans said Sunday that repealing health reform is still a priority, but not the focus in Congress next week.

I don't think my Enbrel is working very well as far as my arthritis goes. I haven't been able to take it consistently for a few months because of so many illnesses and I'm starting to feel it. I'm not doing as badly as I was before I was on any medication, but I've been having trouble sleeping because my shoulders, elbows and hands ache so much. Gah. It's very frustrating but I guess in the grand scheme of things if this is the worst of it I've still got it pretty good. I can still knit and walk and those were things I couldn't do very well (if at all) pre-medication three years ago.
I had a riding lesson scheduled yesterday but I was too exhausted and achy so I asked if my daughter, EJ could take a lesson in my place. My instructor was dubious because Doc, the beginners horse is lame right now from founder and she as rule usually doesn't teach kids until they are 8 years old and my daughter just turned 6 years old. But she's been going on lots of lead line rides on my horse, Girlfriend and she had a riding lesson in New Orleans when she was 5 years old. So they gave it a try.
I was really proud of EJ. She rode Oh No, who I think I mentioned before has a tendency to fall asleep in the arena. And he's really big and that makes EJ nervous. Doc is under 15 hands and shorter than my horse whereas Oh No must be almost 16 hands. But my instructor had him on the lunge line and he listens to her. I've never actually seen a horse who doesn't listen to her. I stood outside the arena with another girl, Megan who boards her horse there and a mother of another student. Megan kept muttering, "Oooh ... good job. Oooh ... look at that. Very good!" which was making me glow with pride. I actually thought she did very too and paid attention really well for a 6 year old. I think she's a little too young to focus consistently for regular lessons yet but I was proud of how well she did for such a little girl. She's got a natural feel for posting and seems to have already started to develop a good seat. She looks very secure up there, not sliding around like some of the very beginner kids.
Speaking of a good seat, I still have grand aspirations to have a good seat although I know it just takes time. I can tell my seat is a lot better than it was just a year ago. I'm not feeling like I'm losing my balance as easily and getting more confident. Although I rode Girlfriend briefly after EJ's lesson until she started to spook because Megan was lunging her new horse, Atlas and he was acting up a bit and she would crack the lunge whip to get his attention and it was freaking Girlfriend out.
I never did figure out if it was because Atlas was being erratic or if it was the sound of the lunge whip cracking. I got the feeling that it was the sound of the lunge whip because her body would go into "flight mode". I'm guessing that when she was being trained for gaming that the trainer would crack the whip like that as an indicator she should go faster and because she rarely hears that sound it was instinctually priming her to gallop despite that I was holding her back. Although, initially it was because Atlas tried to gallop off away from Megan for a moment. Girlfriend did her little jump in place then danced her way into the corner with her head facing the corner which is her M.O. for "I am spooked". So, I got off of her and walked her around for awhile and waited until Megan had Atlas walking before I got back on her.
Five months ago Atlas was a wild mustang on the BLM land so the fact that he is already so well trained is pretty amazing to me. That he will walk, trot and canter for the most part quietly around Megan with a saddle on his back is impressive to me. He seems like a very sweet horse but he obviously has a wild streak. I like it because his wild streak feels to me a lot like Girlfriend's hot spirit.
Later in the afternoon I went back in the arena to talk to my instructor while she was helping Megan lunge Atlas and my instructor said, "Get his attention. He's focused on the new person who walked in the arena and he needs to stay focused on you." I looked over at him and sure enough he was staring right at me. I could almost hear his thoughts, "Are you a wolf?" I've never seen a horse look at me like that and I couldn't stop looking a him because it was such a different look in his eyes than I ever seen from my lifetime of only knowing domestic horses. I'm pretty excited about him being at the stable and getting to watch him as he is trained.

A prosecutor in the Lufthansa heist trial called octogenarian defendant Vincent Asaro "the ultimate tough guy, a wise guy to be feared" as summations began Friday in federal court in Brooklyn.
"He lived by and personally enforced the Mafia code: 'Death before dishonor,' " prosecutor Alicyn Cooley told jurors, showing a picture of those words tattooed on the muscled forearm of the alleged Bonanno family mobster that was displayed during the three-week-long trial.
Asaro, 80, of Howard Beach, is charged with engaging in a four-decade-long racketeering conspiracy, which included planning the notorious 1978 robbery of the Lufthansa cargo terminal at Kennedy Airport. The heist netted $6 million in cash and jewels and was chronicled in the 1990 mob classic "Goodfellas."
In her daylong closing, Cooley painstakingly walked jurors through pictures and testimony on the Lufthansa robbery and alleged racketeering acts, including the 1969 murder of suspected informer Paul Katz, as well as arson, extortion, loan-sharking, threats and beatings.
Calling it a tale of "the Mafia at its darkest and most sinister," she leaned heavily on testimony and tapes from informant Gaspare Valenti, Asaro's cousin, who said he had participated in the Lufthansa theft. He described Asaro's alleged role in planning the crime and divvying up the loot.
Valenti also testified that he helped bury the body of Katz, who ran a warehouse where Asaro and associates stashed stolen goods. He said Asaro told him that he and criminal partner Jimmy Burke -- played by Robert DeNiro in the movie -- had strangled Katz with a dog chain.
Cooley also reminded jurors of testimony from Katz's son Lawrence, who was 6 when his father disappeared. The son described haunting memories of his parents arguing about his dad talking to police, and his father drawing a picture of a house in the country where he hoped to move.
Asaro's "upside down values robbed Paul Katz and his wife and his loved ones of their peace of mind forever," Cooley said.
The defense summation, a prosecution rebuttal and jury instructions are scheduled for Monday.

This patient came to us for treatment seeking relief from neck pain. He drove to Kirkland from Seattle, specifically to seek help at our chiropractic center. The patient was not taking any medication and was exercising regularly, playing golf monthly and soccer weekly. However, the cause of the neck pain was unrelated to the sports. In fact, the pain was interfering with his weekend sports. The patient's main motivation for visiting a kirkland family chiropractor was to be able to partake in his athletic activities, in addition to living a pain free life and improving his poor posture.
In this case, the neck pain was caused by chronic muscle tension which in turn was caused by stress. The tension exacerbated his already bad posture, and then sitting slouched over for long hours at a desk didn't help the situation. As is often the case when patients seek help from a chiropractor, there are several underlying causes that were contributing to the pain.
Our chiropractor, Dr. Ben Baker, is a passionate and knowledgeable supporter of natural health care and wellness principles, so he was able to address the underlying causes of the patient's pain. He worked to re-align the patient's joints which improved the patient's posture and allowed him to move better so that he can continue his weekend activities.
We are experts in the Kirkland area in treating back pain and back injuries. Would you like to make an appointment with Dr. Ben Baker at our chiropractic clinic? Call us today or fill out our online form to make an appointment.

Incitec Pivot fertiliser plant shift welcomed by Port Adelaide mayor
Port Adelaide's mayor has welcomed news a controversial fertiliser plant will be moved from the area after residents long complained about the dangers.
Many locals have feared the risk of an explosion and also considered the plant a disincentive to waterfront development.
The fertiliser plant run by Incitec Pivot is near the Port River and about half a kilometre from Port Adelaide's inner harbour.
Company executive James Whiteside says a deal has been reached for the State Government to buy the site.
"We understand that there was concern about our operation on a number of levels," he said.
Deadly blast
More than a dozen people died last April in a massive fertiliser plant explosion in the town of West, in Texas.
Up to 70 homes and buildings in a five-block radius were devastated.
About 160 people were injured when the plant blew up in the town, about 130 kilometres south of Dallas.
"For us, we want to make sure that we've got a good operation that is in an area that is suitable for our activities."
He says a new site is yet to be chosen.
Port Adelaide-Enfield Mayor Gary Johanson has welcomed a commitment to move a fertiliser factory.
"I can understand the concerns of members of the community that write to me expressing disbelief that they could've bought in to an area unaware that they're at risk of being in a blast zone," he said.
"I applaud the State Government for this progressive move. Both the State Government, and to their credit the Liberals, have taken a strong interest in the Port for probably the first time in history.
"The only thing that does concern me is that this would make the third time, if not more, that the Government has promised to relocate Incitec Pivot in the last three years."
Premier Jay Weatherill will not reveal how much the Government will pay for the company to move but says it will be the trigger for a Port Adelaide rejuvenation, for which the Government has drawn up a blueprint.
"What that does is open up enormous possibilities for development of all of the area around dock one," he said.
Opposition Leader Steven Marshall agreed it was time for the plant to be moved.
"It's a barrier to growth in the area of Port Adelaide which we know is long overdue for some growth," he said.
Greens leader Mark Parnell also welcomed the decision to move the fertiliser plant.
"The Greens are delighted that agreement appears to have been reached to move Incitec Pivot because this will give some peace of mind to existing residents and open up fantastic new residential development potential at Port Adelaide," he said.
"Moving the plant was a key recommendation of a Parliamentary select committee that reported last month."
Part of the government blueprint for the Port earmarks major streets for upgrades and proposed a temporary home in the heart of the Port for the clipper which currently is being brought from Scotland to Adelaide for restoration.
Mr Parnell said the Port had other environmental concerns which still needed attention.
"Even if the fertiliser plant is moved, there are still ongoing pollution problems at the Port from facilities such as the Adelaide Brighton Cement works which continue to coat neighbouring properties with cement dust," he said.
"This fallout causes etching of windows and can render solar panels useless unless regularly cleaned with acid or vinegar.
"Resolving this issue should be next on the Government's agenda for the Port."

Fireflies are out again tonight and the daylight is fading earlier. July has begun and I am looking forward to a long holiday week-end. Besides spending time with my DH, I have a couple of WIP Wednesday - works in progress - projects planned.
I was able to complete the blanket stitching on several more of the Farm Animals Baby Quilt blocks. I've fused the shapes of the last three animals and a heart onto the muslin blocks. I have been able to blanket stitch one or two blocks each day, so I should be able to finish them by the weekend. Then, I plan to stitch together the scrappy 9-patch blocks that will alternate with the appliqued farm animals and hearts. Here is my current progress.
The blocks on the right are the final four that need blanket stitching. I increased the size of the quilt and added more heart and farm animal blocks. The cat, goat and duck are my own designs. All of the completed blocks are on the left side.
I have also been moving ahead with the applique border for my guild's raffle quilt. All of the motifs are cut from the fabric scraps provided by guild members. I've laid out the shapes into a pleasing color arrangement. Check it out and let me know what you think.
The three photos show the entire width of the border as it will be laid out. It will be a very bright quilt and I cannot wait to see it all put together.
I also plan to try my hand at dyeing fabric. I have purchased some inexpensive supplies, along with Rit liquid dyes, and will dye several yards of muslin fabric. I want to try a Japanese resist dye technique called Shibori that I viewed on an episode of Quilting Arts TV. I'll have to share my experience with dyeing next week.
Until then...Keep Stitching!
Tue, Jul 2 2013 9:44 PM
Your baby quilt will be so much fun. This will look great when done. I like the border you did. Now will you have one of those top and bottom? What are the plans for the sides? Your quilt will be bright and also full of happiness and joy. At least that's how I see it. I would love to see it done.
I really like these as well . very adorable I think the border is beautiful

- Handwoven wicker and esparto grass
- Made by family company near Jaén
- Perfect for serving breads or as a tray
- Support an ancient artisan tradition
- Warm and rustic
- Size - 16 inches x 16 inches
Present warm breads in this rustic handmade basket from the countryside of Spain! Each basket is made of strong wicker with handwoven esparto grass. Our artisan operates one of the last workshops to preserve this art.
Fill this artisan basket with your selection of Spanish favorites, or any variety of gifts. This 16 inch square basket is also an attractive and convenient way to store linens or supplies in your kitchen.
Outside of the ancient city of Jaén, just north of Granada, townspeople craft these baskets one-by-one. Aged wicker is woven to create a sturdy frame, then handwoven esparto grass adds a timeless accent.
Esparto grass is one of the most traditional materials in Spain. It was used for everything from window shades, to kitchen storage to saddles for burros. In modern times it has been replaced by more modern fabrics and containers, and there are very few workshops that continue to practice the craft of weaving esparto grass. Your purchase will help preserve this artisan tradition for future generations.

prep time
Mix yogurt, mayonnaise, parsley, seasoned salt and pepper in large bowl. Add chicken, celery and onion; toss to coat well. Cover.
Refrigerate at least 30 minutes or until ready to serve. Serve in sandwiches or on salad greens.
It would be even better with seedless grapes cut in half added to it .
Derrell | June 03, 2016 |
Fantastic recipe! We had more chicken than was called for, so I ended up adding a little more of each ingredient, but it turned out swimmingly! We also added a dollop of sour cream, omitted the onion, and included half an apple. It was lovely, and was not only delicious but quite the time saver once lunch came around! (I cooked the rotisserie chicken recipe the night before, and I used what was left of the chicken for THIS recipe. Waste not, want not!)

love it but didnt add mayonnaise and did add some apple

Colum Eastwood: Why I carried INLA man's coffin
Eastwood defends funeral role as he launches bid to lead SDLP
The challenger for the leadership of the SDLP has defended his controversial decision to carry the coffin of a republican veteran as masked men walked alongside the funeral cortege.
Colum Eastwood yesterday confirmed he intended to stand against Dr Alasdair McDonnell at next month's party conference, saying he was "hungry for change and ready for leadership".
The Foyle MLA caused controversy in 2012 by carrying the coffin of a friend who was a former paramilitary, Seamus 'Chang' Coyle.
Mr Eastwood defended his decision to take part in the funeral of the Official IRA and INLA member with masked men.
"Seamus Coyle was a friend of mine from school. It was difficult for me politically to carry that coffin but it was important to me on a personal level," he said.
"I understand that people have difficulties with it, I completely understand, but we also have to understand that sometimes in death you have to pay respects."
Mr Eastwood (32) said his challenge to Dr McDonnell "was not personal". He said politics needed "a new generation" and paid tribute to Dr McDonnell (66) for "giving his life to the SDLP". However, other parties and SDLP members will be looking not just at his age and energy but areas where he may change policy.
In his statement of acceptance, Mr Eastwood said: "As a proud nationalist, I believe deeply in a united Ireland.
"I want progressive nationalism to go much further on unity than the mere sloganising that until now has been trying to pass itself off as strategy. I want the SDLP to set out exactly what a new united Ireland will look like, and to set about convincing all the people of Ireland of the value of our convictions."
This sets him in direct competition with Sinn Fein which is working on its own plan.
However, in an interview with the Belfast Telegraph, Mr Eastwood stressed that the first priority would be making Northern Ireland work.
He stated: "I have not changed my belief in a united Ireland, but I am not silly enough to think that the way to do that is by making Northern Ireland a basket case and falling into the south.
"In nationalism generally, there tends to be a sneaking regard for the idea of a 'failed political entity' as the road to unity. We have to get away from that, we have to make Northern Ireland work. Then we have a conversation about where we are going to go next."
In the here and now, Mr Eastwood favours creating an opposition at Stormont. This follows the UUP unilaterally entering opposition last month and an opposition Bill drawn up by John McCallister, an independent unionist. Mr Eastwood said: "There should be a place called opposition. We will gladly look at the detail of John McCallister's Bill. That is our position but we would never lead a party into an election saying we were going into opposition. We would seek a mandate to govern and then after the election if the structures were in place we would take the decision on what to do based on the balance of forces."
Upper Bann MLA Dolores Kelly, who is running again for the deputy leadership and supports Mr Eastwood, added that she would like to have talks with the Ulster Unionists to see if they could agree enough priorities in common to provide an alternative administration.
Ms Kelly would like a more 'labour' tinge to the SDLP.
"An Eastwood/Kelly leadership would set out to stop sectarian politics and stop looking over our shoulder at Sinn Fein," she said.
"Let's forget about them and just concentrate on the SDLP. We need to look at how society is structured. We need to talk about integrated education and actively promote it; we need to promote social justice."
The other candidate nominated as deputy, Fearghal McKinney, said he would spend the next three weeks engaging with the SDLP's councillors and local organisation to gauge support.

Benefit for Freedom House featuring Karen Lovely, Lisa Mann, The Lucky Losers and Ben Rice @ GAMH
Benefit for Freedom House featuring Karen Lovely, Lisa Mann, The Lucky Losers and Ben Rice @ GAMH
Door 7 / Show 8 Come on down to Great American Music Hall on Thursday, July 6th and enjoy "Benefit For Freedom House," an uplifting, talent packed songwriter's showcase in honor of the Bay Area's only safe house for survivors of human-trafficking. Join us for a lively and empowering night of original blues, vintage R&B, and roots music featuring award winning recording artists Karen Lovely, Lisa Mann, The Lucky Losers, and Ben Rice. Together, we can raise funds for Freedom House, show support for our community leaders, and contribute to the fight against modern day slavery. Freedom House is a San Francisco Bay Area based non-profit organization, dedicated to restoring the lives of human-trafficking survivors. They provide shelter, long-term after care, and a range of support services for adults and minors. Freedom House creates bright futures for victims of commercial sexual exploitation and forced labor. "Benefit for Freedom House" will present a live auction, which will feature exciting prizes generously donated by many incredible local businesses. Prize donors include handmade guitars, wine, dinner / show tickets, and more. All profits from the auction and a percentage of our ticket sales will go directly to Freedom House. Representatives from the organization will be at the show to share stories, educate our guests about volunteer opportunities, and accept additional donations. Learn more: http://theluckylosers.com Performers: Karen Lovely (songwriter/vocalist) Karen is one of the most sought after artists in blues today. Her music is a heady mix of contemporary blues, R&B, and pure Memphis soul. Her powerful, rich, evocative voice is reminiscent of the great Etta James. Karen shot onto the blues scene out of the Pacific Northwest placing 2nd at the 2010 International Blues Challenge, and she has been on a winning streak ever since. In 2011 she was nominated for three Blues Music Awards: "Best Contemporary Blues Female Artist," "Best Contemporary Blues Album," and "Best Song"–"Still the Rain." In 2015 she released the critically acclaimed "Ten Miles of Bad Road," which won her a Blues411 Jimi Award. And in 2016 she was nominated for a prestigious Blues Music Award for "Best Contemporary Blues Female Artist." Her soon to be released album "Fish Outta Water," is running on a PledgeMusic campaign, and 10% of the proceeds will go to RAINN, the national organization dedicated to ending domestic violence and sexual assault. Website: http://www.karenlovely.com Youtube Video: https://youtu.be/MuXIca2qpsE Quote: The songs I write, perform, and record, are bridges that connect me with my audience. As an independent blues singer/songwriter, I use the gifts of my voice and my words to bring about positive change in our world. With my newest release, "Fish Outta Water," I'm continuing the advocacy and outreach I started with my previous albums by writing, recording, and performing songs that raise awareness about important social issues like domestic violence, sexual assault, homelessness, suicide, mental health and addiction. Karen Lovely, 2016 Lisa Mann (songwriter/vocalist/bassist) Lisa has been awarded the prestigious 2016 Blues Music Award for her mighty skills on the bass guitar, an award which she also took home in 2015. She is also the winner of the coveted "Sean Costello Rising Star Award" from Blues Blast. In 2016 she took home no less than three Muddy Waters Awards from the Cascade Blues Association for "Contemporary Blues Act of the Year," "Bass Player of the Year," and "Northwest Recording of the Year." Her latest release, "Hard Times, Bad Decisions" debuted on the Living Blues radio chart at #7. Her influences run the gamut from honey sweet Bonnie Raitt to fierce R&B belters like Little Milton. She writes the majority of her recorded material, and her songs paint pictures of a gritty (and sometimes humorous) personal experience in life, love, and the road. Website: http://www.lisamannmusic.com Youtube Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3WMgCyGEdU Quote: "Lisa Mann, the 2015 Blues Music Award winner for bass, is a fine bass player and an even better singer…. She has a warm and expressive voice, which she controls admirably…. Mann's personality shines through her vocals, with many of these songs taken from her own experiences. Mann is best when she's doing her own songs." Michael Kinsman, Blues Music Magazine, 2016 The Lucky Losers – Cathy Lemons & Phil Berkowitz (songwriters/vocalists/ harmonica) Out of San Francisco, veteran blues singer Cathy Lemons and soulful vocalist/harmonica player, Phil Berkowitz deliver an inventive, hypnotic spin on blues & roots music. Their first album, "A Winning Hand" was nominated for a Blues411 Jimi Award in 2015. Their second album "In Any Town," charted to #6 on Living Blues, peaked at #2 on "Top 50 Albums/ CA/All Genres," and #3 on "Top Blues Rock Albums" on The Roots Music Report. Making a Scene placed it at #10 in their "Top Independent Blues Albums of 2016," and it made many critic's "Top 10" picks. It was nominated twice for a Blues 411 Jimi Award — "Best Contemporary Album" and "Best Harmonica Player." Cathy and Phil breathe new life into American songwriting tradition and the vanishing art of duet singing. Bill Wilson of Reflections in Blue declares "Not since the pairing of Johnny Cash and June Carter has the music world seen a duet that is this well suited for one another." http://www.theluckylosers.com https://youtu.be/ddthsG_8qOU Quote: " A throwback to the hybrid of soul, blues, rock, gospel, and country that emerged in the late 1960's … impassioned vocals …electrifying interplay… powerful harmonica… dramatic, heavy blues rock…. such a compelling listen… haunting soulful….Roots music listeners who take a chance on the Lucky losers will surely hit the jackpot." Robert H. Cataliotti, Living Blues, Issue 245, 2016 Ben Rice: (songwriter/vocalist/guitarist) Out of Portland Oregon, young Ben Rice has made quite an impression on the blues world at large with his original music that blends soul, delta-blues, rockabilly, jazz, and funk into a roots stew. He has been nominated for "2016 Best Live Recording" by The Independent Blues Awards and also for "2016 Best Contemporary Blues Artist." Ben has consecutively won the 2014, 2015 and 2016 "Contemporary Act of The Year" awards from The Cascade Blues Association. He was a close finalist in the International Blues Challenge in 2014 and 2015–and won the IBC award in 2015 for "Best Guitar." http://www.benricelive.com https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcVlRBzBJeg Quote: "The first thing you'll notice about this young man is that he plays slide guitar incredibly well….Ben has great energy, writes great songs and is a master of every style of blues." Yakima Herald, 2011 Freedom House is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with a mission to bring hope, restoration, and a new life to survivors of human-trafficking by providing a safe home and long-term aftercare. The agency oversees two safe houses: The Nest for adolescent girls, located in Santa Clara County, and The Monarch for women, based in San Mateo County Hundreds of thousands of U.S. citizens have been estimated to be at risk of commercial sexual exploitation. More than a quarter are under 18. An estimated 26% of modern day slaves are children, and 22% of modern slaves are in the Sex Industry.

Ricco: sweetest little buddy ever.
Ricco was the sweetest cat ever. He was so loving to every person that gave him attention. We will always remember our little buddy.
Honey: a sweet angel who touched many of our hearts.
Though we were together only 5 weeks, strong was our bond. Leaving the car to rescue this dog running full speed along Fairbanks-N. Houston Road all I could think was "what am I doing, why me, I only touch a dog about twice a year". But she let me pick her up after her almost-failed dart across the busy road. I took her home, she drank from my palm, began eating, felt at home and I took her to KAAWS for spay, shots, and heart worm treatment. Honey was sweet, she was fun, she captured my heart, and I looked forward to many hears with my new dog friend.
However, early last Saturday she was quickly felled and gone within hours. I'm guessing the heart worms were more pervasive than we thought and that she died of a stroke or something like that. I miss her very much. I had no idea a dog could be so wonderful. I liked my life better with her than without her. My cat even misses her.

text: 1st off, I received this email probably from a forum member, but the email wasn't formatted the way I would normally see it if it came from Hearth.com so I thought I would post it here and then respond. Ordering from Zoobler was fine, they are just very busy with a huge demand. If you are looking for a stove right now, I would check inventory before placing an order. We felt much better ordering from them than we would have with a place like Direct Buy which also carried the same stove. If we had run into issues with backorders or delivery issues Direct Buy would have been a nightmare. Zoobler was great! We saved over $500 just on the stove alone buying from Zoobler as opposed to Direct Buy, incl. shipping, extra fees, taxes, etc. We received our door and installed the insert this weekend. Went very smoothly with all the great information that we gleaned from this site.

A/N: This was orginally meant to be a sort of companion piece to my fic Shattered Glass but who knew it would be so fricken hard to write from Will's point of view? I thought it would be alright, but instead I found myself struggling to get through what for me turned out to be an incredibly frustrating, annoying fic. Hopefully reading it, you will have more luck. Splintered Wood
Splintered Wood
Will sat alone, his knife digging quickly and efficiently into the long and sturdy tree branch John had found and dragged to the cave. In a few more strokes he would be done with the branch, and in less than ten minutes he would be finished constructing the entire litter that they would use to carry Marian home. It was a task Robin has assigned to him without a moment's hesitation, and it made Will feel as though his heart had grown teeth and was trying to eat its way out of his stomach.
"Will." He looked up immediately at the sound of the richly smooth voice he knew almost better than his own. Djaq stood next to the rock he had chosen as a chair, surveying him with slightly narrowed eyes. Though her face still bore a few traces in mud and tear tracks of the violently wild emotional ride she had experienced earlier that day-- sorrow at Marian's death, anger and fear during the battle, disbelieving joy when the lady had begun to breathe again-- she was now completely composed, dirt and blood-caked hands folded complacently in front of her. "You're bleeding."
Will followed Djaq's gaze down to the knuckles of his right hand, the hand not holding his knife. The skin was split and raw, but Will hadn't noticed the stinging pain until then. He flexed his hand and found his fingers stiff and swollen. Looking back at Djaq, he shrugged. "It's already dried."
"Still, I could make some paste if you--" Djaq stopped as Will shook his head and returned to shaping the tree branch.
"I have to finish this," he said, his voice as wooden as the branch in his hands. "And you've done enough." He couldn't resist another glance at Djaq's face, drinking in the sight of her large eyes and full lips, her calm, self-possessed expression a balm to hurts far worse than a bruised hand. "Robin and Much said you were brilliant with Marian, and that if not for you, she really would have. . . she really would be. . . she. . ."
Though he longed to basked in the happy flush that lit Djaq's face at the praise, he was forced to turn his own face away, tears welling in his eyes as his voice cracked on the last word.
"Will--" the gentle concern in Djaq's voice cut at him like his knife cut at the branch. The tears threatened to spill onto his cheeks and he blinked them frantically back, making sure to keep his cuts long and even. No mistakes.
"I'm sorry," he managed to say, wishing Djaq would go away even as he wanted nothing more than to feel her arms around him and let himself drown in her warmth.
"There is no need to be." The simmering emotion behind Djaq's voice made Will look up again. Though her expression remained carefully controlled, something powerful surged just beneath the surface. Her words were spoken with fervent deliberation. "You came back. Marian is alive. Everything is alright now."
Will shook his head. His knife sank into the branch. There had been no opportunity when he and Allan had first returned to explain themselves fully-- not that Allan wanted to bother-- and Will was never much good with words, but he wanted to try, wanted to take a chance at justifying himself in the hopes of assuaging even a little of his guilt. In hopes of convincing himself that there was even a little chance that Djaq might forgive him.
"I should never have left." The words came out as a whisper, as though that would make them easier to say.
A gentle rustling told him Djaq had moved, and another glance revealed her standing with her arms crossed and her head cocked, a variety of emotions flickering across her face. "So why did you?" she asked, and though she posed it as a simple question, Will didn't miss the faint desperation and lingering hurt behind her voice.
It was a question that there were a hundred answers to, and Will wanted to give her all of them. He swallowed, trying pick one, and voiced the first thing that came into his mind.
"I thought so." Djaq cut him off almost sharply, anger flashing in her expressive eyes. Will noticed the sword still strapped about her waist, and, not wanting her to leave him just to go disembowel Allan, continued speaking, defending his friend.
"He's sorry." Will kept his eyes on Djaq, imploring her to believe him, imploring her to stay just a little longer. "He realized we had to come back right after I did." The actual truth of the matter was that Will had made Allan realize it by plowing his fist into his face.
Allan had passed him a skin of stolen wine, talking seductively of Scarborough and family and Gisborne's money. The thought of leaving the outlaws had hurt Will deeply, but the thought of everyone moving on while he was no longer needed had hurt more. Still, their faces had stuck in his mind as he'd raised the wine in a toast that he pretended felt like closure, not like his heart breaking. He tried to banish them with thoughts of Scarborough, thoughts of his Auntie Annie's house, his father and brother waiting, happy and well fed, sun shining on days without taxes, days without worry or fear.
However, by the time he had taken the first step down that road, Will's dream had shattered, broken by the realization that that's all it was, a dream. There would be just as many problems in Scarborough as there were in Nottingham. Even with a different sheriff, one loyal to the King and not Prince John, times would still be hard. All of England was suffering, and Will knew of only one man who could and would change that. The one man whose employ he was leaving behind.
Will had stopped short and Allan had turned around, the vague annoyance on his face disappearing the moment he saw Will's fierce expression. Backing away, Allan had tried again to paint lurid pictures with his words, one dark and terrible where the others left them, the other bright and cheerful where they went to Scarborough. Where they left the others. Furious at Allan for forcing him to make such a decision and for making sense while doing it, Will he had stepped forward, demanding in a low voice that they go back to the cave. Allan had tried once more, reaching out to touch Will's arm, trying to soothe him back into agreement. But for once, Will had refused to go along with Allan's plan. The sound of his younger brother's perpetually hopeful voice had been in his ears, the image of exotic brown eyes softened by a smile in his heart. The clashing hopes and emotions, combined with the feel of Allan stroking his arm and murmuring honeyed promises, caused a bubbling, boiling surge of frustration and anger and jaded disappointment to rise in Will. Searching for any outlet, he had thrown off Allan's hand, punching the other man square on the jaw, hard enough to send him sprawling. Then, after taking several deep breaths, he had stated with no room left for argument that they were returning to the cave.
A soft touch of practiced fingers brought Will back to the present. Djaq was tracing his split knuckles with physician care, an all-too-knowing smile starting on her shapely lips. "I am glad for Allan's sake that such a realization came about," she said.
Watching the way the torchlight in the cave played across Djaq's smooth skin, amazed that she was still there, still talking to him and not turning away in betrayed disgust, Will found his next words tumbling out. "We thought we'd be forgotten." It wasn't something he had planned to tell her, but it was easier than telling her that it had been thoughts of her which had kept him moving without rest on the way back to the cave.
Djaq stilled and faced Will with an almost defensive stance, something coiled and wary in her voice as she asked, "What do you mean?"
"The King is coming," Will murmured, each word a sharp stab to his heart. "And Allan and I. . . we don't have a place. Here."
"Your place is with Robin." Djaq's voice had grown sharp, her eyes hard.
Will swallowed, knowing her anger, when fully invoked, was a fearsome thing to behold. Still, he continued, desperate for Djaq to understand. "If we're pardoned by the King, if we're no longer outlaws. . . we're nothing." It was the first time Will had said the cruel fact out loud, and he felt it reverberate through his entire being.
"But your carpentry," Djaq said, lapsing almost with relief into the familiar territory of her logical reasoning mode and gesturing to Will's hands as he lashed rope to the finished branch. "You could easily make a living with your skills."
The certainty that colored her words took away some of the twisting guilt in Will's stomach, replacing it with a warmth that spread through his body like the tingle following a drink of whiskey. He felt his lips curving into a smile before he remembered his earlier thoughts on that very thing.
"I could just as easily do carpentry in Scarborough," he said. The words fell from him like heavy stones.
"Where your family is," Djaq added, her voice even heavier. Will nodded, and felt the corners of his eyes again begin to prick. Bending his head into the shadows and away from Djaq's too-observant eyes, he tugged hard on the litter's rope, under the pretext of making it secure. A few sharp stings of pain in his hand were enough to drive back the tears, but the thoughts of his family were not nearly as easy to banish.
Dan and Luke Scarlett were never far from Will's mind. In fact, in the brief moment of that first step down the road to Scarborough, thoughts of seeing them again had blotted out all thoughts of the outlaws he was leaving behind. It was such a strange thing, having his family alive yet so separated from him that he thought about them in past times and memories as if they were dead. Correspondence was sporadic at best, letters snuck through mail caravans that, like so many things, often fell prey to the Sheriff's harsh rules and taxes. Sometimes upon opening a letter that described events which clearly must have taken place months ago, Will felt as though he was exchanging words with ghosts.
The hardest letters to receive however, were those with sections penned by his Auntie Annie. Her writing was elegant yet neat, exactly as her sister's had been. Will would trace the curling lines and little swirls with his fingertips, imagining himself riding to Scarborough in glorious triumph, knighted by Robin or perhaps even the King himself, laden with riches to present to his family before bringing them home. He would imagine them emerging from his aunt's house, his brother tall and straight-backed with color in his filled-out cheeks, his father whole and solid with darker hair and a face unstretched by lines of grief and pain. He would imagine his mother alive and well between them, her skin rosy and not sallow, her smile bright and not strained.
His delusion never lasted long before something always happened-- the Sheriff blockading another town, Gisborne exploiting more commoners, a command from Robin to go to Nottingham-- to bring him back to the painfully real present and break his happy fantasy apart like splintered wood, leaving only painful slivers of memory in his heart.
He remembered his mother when Sir Edward was the Sheriff, the way her hugs were always warm, her laughter was always bubbling to the surface, and a light always shone in her eyes. He remembered his father teaching him and Luke how to whittle with precision and care, the young Luke quickly growing bored and begging to be taught to shoot a bow instead. He remembered his mother losing her easy smile and growing thinner and wearier by the day. He remembered the almost translucent look of her skin when they found her lying on the bedroom floor, when his father had panicked because she wasn't breathing and tore open her bodice, discovering the layers of clothing she had been wearing underneath to conceal the fact that she was nothing more than bones. Bones they had buried that same day. Will remembered Luke's face as the body was lowered into the ground, his little brother clutching his hand, eyes far too wide above cheeks far too pinched. He remembered grabbing Luke's hand again after going for three days without food, taking the younger boy into the forest to shoot game so they could for once have a decent supper. He remembered his father's ashen face as he cradled the bleeding stump that had been his right hand.
Will remembered the day he nearly died, the day Robin had given him a chance to live again, the day his father had placed a hatchet in his hand and made him an outlaw. Will had joined with Robin that very day, fighting with the lord-turned-outlaw for his family, for his father who couldn't, for his brother who shouldn't have to, and for his mother who had refused to in order to give her sons a chance. He had nearly left Robin's gang for them as well. Memories of the past and fantasies of life in Scarborough tangled in his head, leaving him with an intense, violent anger that almost was enough to burn away his bitter sorrow.
"They deserve so much more," Will whispered to the darkness of the cave. It had no answer for him, and neither, it seemed, did Djaq. She stood for a few long moments in silence, watching Will's hands flick down the nearly-finished litter, adding small notches and grooves as he saw fit. Then she asked, very quietly, "And what do you expect me to do?"
Will looked up at her, unsure of her meaning. She looked straight back at him, her body displaying too many emotions for Will to identify or make sense of clearly. He could see anger in the slight clench of her hands, apprehension in the tightening of her shoulders, and worry in the knitting of her brow, but also a wish tightening her lips, and hope flashing in her eyes.
"What do you expect me to do," she repeated, "When the King returns?"
"Go into medicine." The answer seemed so simple to Will that he voiced it before considering the true implications of Djaq's question. She cut him another look, veiled suspicion in her voice.
"Become a physician?" she asked.
"I-if you wanted to." Unable to guess what was causing such a troubled expression on Djaq's face, Will decided to speak as plainly and truthfully as he could. "You're one of the most intelligent and talented people I've ever met. Any town would be lucky to have you as their physician."
Again Djaq looked at him strangely, her chestnut eyes harshly unreadable. "I am a Saracen and a woman," she said with a bit more vehemence than perhaps was necessary, blinking and looking away at last. "It is unlikely that many towns would accept such a combination."
"Oh." It was Will's turn to frown, slightly at a loss. His next words tumbled out, honest and unfiltered. "I didn't think of that."
He hardly noticed the happy warmth and sweet little smile that blossomed on Djaq's face at his words, his thoughts turning inward as the rolling sea of guilt again surged forward, hot and suffocating. From the moment Allan had mentioned leaving with Gisborne's stolen money, Djaq had been the main object of Will's thoughts. He had thought of her eyes and her smile and her delicate, capable hands. He had thought of her courage and her strength and her incredible determination. He had thought of the way she sighed when she slept, the delight she took in being outdoors, her anger at Robin whenever he treated Much as a servant. He had entertained a misguided fantasy of bringing his family back to Nottingham and introducing them to her, happy and successful.
He hadn't thought of how hard it had been for her to make her place in a world that had torn apart everything she'd known. He hadn't thought of how hard it sometimes still was for her as she struggled to maintain her identity yet nullify her gender. He hadn't thought of how hard it would be for her when the King returned, when she was forced to start all over once again, again searching for a way to belong in a place that rejected nearly everything she was. And yet he had thought of leaving her. The idea had become a true possibility in his mind for only a moment, but as far as Will was concerned that was one moment too many.
"I'm sorry," he whispered brokenly, his throat clenching as he stared down at the now finished litter resting in his hands. "I'm sorry."
"Don't be." Djaq's voice was smooth and firm without a trace of blame, but Will still couldn't bring himself to face her. "I understand why you left."
Will shook his head, refusing to allow himself to believe in her words. The self-loathing guilt and shame that had nearly crippled him when he had been told Marian was dead-- his mind immediately conjuring what-if's even more devastating, such as it being Robin or Djaq herself who lay still and cold on the slab of rock-- had a strangling grip on him once more.
"I'm a coward," he breathed, finally saying aloud what he had been thinking since taking the first step towards Scarborough. He had tried to blame his cowardice on Allan, hitting him as though things were all his fault, letting the other outlaws think they were. He had half-hoped to hear Robin scream at him for such cowardice, give him the kind of withering, biting speech that only Robin could give. He had tried to hide the cowardice from the others and himself, covering it with sincere contrition and the excuse of his family.Now he was admitting it in front of the bravest person he knew, the one person he truly wanted to be brave for.
Djaq took his confession in silence, standing very still and offering hardly even a sign that she had heard what he had said. After a long pause, Will heard the quiet rustle of her clothing and guessed she was walking away, done dealing with him at last, all her pity or anger or whatever it had been that was keeping her there run out.
Then Will felt the touch of delicate fingers on his arm. He caught the smells of woodsmoke and metal and the forest after a rain as Djaq slipped her arms around him from behind and held him tightly, one full, soft cheek pressed to his. Her breath, deep and even, was warm against his skin.
"You are not coward," she said, her body pressing to Will's and allowing him to feel the words move from her. "A coward runs away." Will stiffened in her arms but she didn't release him. Her next words were spoken with her lips placed against his ear. "Only someone with real courage comes back."
Djaq pressed the lightest kiss to Will's temple, then shifted so they were once again cheek to cheek. His arms lifted of their own accord, placing themselves over Djaq's. He wanted to cry and he wanted to laugh and he wanted to say a million things to the incredible woman he could feel with every part of him, the woman who he was determined never to leave againInstead, he let the cathartic silence of a moment speak volumes of its own as it wrapped itself around them as securely as Djaq wrapped herself around Will. They stayed entwined for only a brief amount of time, hardly breathing as though the less they moved the slower that time would pass. Then Will dropped his arms and Djaq removed her heavy warmth from his back and together they bent as one to pick up the finished litter and carry back to the other outlaws.
When they drew nearer, Little John rushed to help them, scolding in mutters about small people trying to carry something so large. Much exclaimed over the craftsmanship, Robin flashed Will a grateful smile. Allan touched a hand to the small of Will's back, his gaze meaningful but bright. Will could still feel Djaq's soft skin on his, still smell her earthy scent, still hear her words ringing in his ears. She brushed past him to move to Marian's side, her hand briefly touching his as her eyes flashed with warmth.
The littler slipped in Will's hands, banging into his knee and drawing a muffled curse from John. Allan chuckled, ignoring Much's pointed suggestions that he lend a hand. Robin threw a "Careful now" over his shoulder as he knelt next to Marian. Will steadied his grip, eyes still on Djaq. He didn't apologize, didn't offer an excuse or even utter a single word.
He knew then that he didn't have to.
Review please, especially suggestions if there's one part you think really needs changing.

Winter snow blankets Mourne landscape that inspired Narnia as magical CS Lewis square opens in Belfast
A magical space dedicated to one of Belfast's most famous authors is set to open tonight.
CS Lewis Square - the latest phase of the £40m Connswater Greenway regeneration project - will mark the life and work of the writer, who spent his early childhood in east Belfast.
Located at the intersection of the Connswater and Comber Greenways, the £2.5m square will feature seven sculptures created by Irish artist Maurice Harron based on characters from The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.
Three hundred trees have also been planted around the square, which has a capacity to hold 2,000 people, and there will also be new railway tracks, arches, paths, street furniture and facade art around the development.
The seven sculptures - including Aslan, Maugrim, Mr and Mrs Beaver, the Robin, the White Witch, the Stone Table and Mr Tumnus - will be unveiled at tonight's launch party, where the author's stepson Douglas Gresham will formally open the square.
Mr Gresham said: "I am delighted to be back in Belfast again, particularly to celebrate the opening of CS Lewis Square.
"The last time I was here was back in 1998 when another now famous Belfast man, Keith Getty, and I put together a special show to celebrate my stepfather's centenary.
"This is a wonderful city, and it's a thrill that Jack (as he preferred to be called) is being honoured in this way.
"The sculptures are terrific. I am sure that this square will be a great boost to Belfast, his childhood home which he so dearly loved."
The launch is at 6pm and will be compered by east Belfast actor Dan Gordon and will feature a host of local performers.
They include the dance group Ajendance performing the Dance of the White Witch, filmed under the H&W cranes, and local flute players performing the Waterboys' Further Up Further In, filmed at the waterfall at Cregagh Glen.
Seven short films will also be shown as the sculptures are unveiled to bring them to life.
To conclude the event, a snow machine will transform the magical space into a winter wonderland as Aslan is revealed to the public.

Heather Rouillard, Global eMarketing Manager @ Ergotron
I had the pleasure of sitting down (we should have been standing!) with Grant Henriksen, Sales Associate and Customer Events, here at Ergotron. Grant was recently hired to travel around the country to customer events, trade-shows, reseller events, distributors, and end users with the Traveling Ergotron Solutions Showroom (T.E.S.S.). After a few months on the road, Grant was able to recap what his new life has been like, and how TESS is evolving the Ergotron sales strategy.
Heather: How have things been going so far?
Grant: Outstanding. The response has been awesome from all of our visits. It's great to get our product out in front of our customer and partners. Everyone is having a great time.
H: What is some specific feedback you have heard from resellers and other sales reps that sell Ergotron product?
G: The events are great. They are happy to be a part of any TESS event. They get to check out the newest product. And, most importantly, they get to touch and feel the product that they have seen in our videos and our website, with the ability to get their hands on the product. That's exactly what TESS is all about. When they get to see close up, it really sells itself.
H: The HIMSS show was very different for us this year. Can you tell us how that came to fruition?
G: It was neat. It was a show within a show, since we actually brought TESS into our booth in Las Vegas. Not only did attendees get to see Ergotron product at our booth, but they also got firsthand look at what TESS is like on the road. They got a sneak peek of what TESS could bring to them, literally, in the near future.
H: What is in the near future for you and TESS?
G: There is a lot of ground slated to be covered in the next few months. 10 states in the next 60 days.

2004 AARP South Dakota Member Survey: Volunteerism
AARP Member Opinion Research
There has been much research conducted on volunteerism at the national and international level, but very little at the state and community level. For this study, 929 randomly selected AARP members in South Dakota were surveyed by mail with the following results:
- Nearly half say they have volunteered in the last 12 months.
- Those who are not volunteering say they don't because their personal schedules are too full, they have work commitments, or because of health or disability issues.
- Many volunteer at religious organizations. Others volunteer at civic associations; organizations that focus on education; community and neighborhood action groups; fraternal groups; arts, culture, humanities; or youth recreation and programs.
- AARP members are engaged in fundraising, making telephone calls, organizing events, and providing physical labor in their volunteer assignments.
- Wanting to help people is the number one very important reason for taking on a volunteer assignment. South Dakota members also say they want to make their community a better place, they want to be with people they enjoy, they want to work with people who share their ideals, or they feel it is their duty as a citizen.
The survey was conducted between February and April 2004 by FGI, Inc., and the report prepared by Susan L. Silberman, Ph.D., and Cassandra Burton, both of AARP Knowledge Management. (46 pages)

Military regime against democracy in Egypt: Analyst
Press TV has interviewed Edward Corrigan, an international human rights lawyer based in Ontario, to get his views on an Egyptian court's verdict, sentencing the country's first democratically elected president Mohammad Morsi to death.
What follows is a rough transcription.
Press TV: There have been strong reactions against the verdict given to Mohammad Morsi. What is the likelihood of a retrial for Morsi?
Corrigan: Well, it is a difficult question to answer. The military seems to declare total war on the democratic forces in Egypt; not only the Muslim Brotherhood but also people on the left, and have imposed sort of a brutal crackdown. Thousands of people have been killed, I think there is 40 thousand people in jail, and of course the whole coup and the current military regime is in fact illegal. They overthrew the democratically elected president of Egypt with 52 percent of the support of population and I think that is a factor that the military needs to keep in mind. Morsi did have the majority 52 percent of the Egyptian people, people who voted, supported him and these trials have been condemned by the United Nations, by Amnesty in a recent report as farce, as being totally not legitimate and I think that is an accurate assessment. What is notable is that Turkey has ... strongly attacked this condemnation. In fact the whole trial is really a farce; the issue for him [being] condemned to death was because he broke out of prison, but it really was the collapse of the [Hosni] Mubarak regime, the guards abandoned their posts and then Morsi was held only for a couple of days and he even said when they were there, there was no body guarding him and they were not going to hide, and of course Morsi was vetted and approved for running the election, nothing was done, this is a sort of after the fact revenge attack on Morsi for something that really in no circumstances he should even be jailed for.... this is very much after the fact where the regime is grasping at straws in order to delegitimize and attack Morsi and 105 other people.
Press TV: And briefly, why do you think the revolution in Egypt was easily hijacked?
Corrigan: Well, there was some authoritarian tendencies in the Morsi regime, there was a lot of concern from the Coptics, from secular and liberal forces in Egypt and I am quite convinced that it was the Egyptian army and maybe other parties that helped stage the protests to try to overthrow the regime. There is also I think a lack of understanding of the Egyptian army for the concept of democracy and having a legitimate opposition and official opposition to the government to criticize. There is an authoritarian stream that was in the Muslim Brotherhood, and Morsi's government, but this is like.... we are looking at a totalitarian state, almost fascist state, with the case of the military. There's a question... the West has difficulty with democracy in Middle East, cause we end up having Islamic democracy and then you end up supporting what is basically a fascist totalitarian state crackdown and massive abuse of human rights. But in Egypt this is going to just blow up and there is going to be a terrible bloodbath which would damage the state and probably result in the death of tens of thousands, if not more, people and ultimately I think the military will be pushed out. But you compare what happened with Mubarak; he was sentenced to jail for 4 years and is expected to be released shortly, after 30 years of rubbing the country blind, killing people, arbitrary detention, torture, a whole range of crimes because they are friends of the military and the military was maybe even party to those crimes. They of course are giving Mubarak an easy treatment when in fact he should have been harshly sent to prison and his assets and stuff confiscated. But Morsi? It is unheard of! UN has condemned it, Turkey, Oman, Hezbollah, Hamas... I think other countries should criticize this like a travesty of justice; as anything but fair trials. There really are charades, a political kangaroo court, and I think it is very dangerous and explosive for the region and the army should back off and there should be some attempt to have some sort of reconciliation between the parties and put Egypt back onto a more democratic stream and protecting the rights of minorities, protecting the rights of secular individuals..., but there needs to be some sort of reconciliation.
