(Updated 9/3/17 Alex Irwin address change. 10/6/17 Josh Williams moved. 10/11/17 Steve Martin moved)
What follows is a list of people who were arrested and imprisoned during the Ferguson rebellions. Their charges, sentences, the particulars of their cases vary widely, as do their interpretations of the events in Ferguson and their participation or alleged participation in those events. We present the information below in hopes of linking up these prisoners with those on the outside who might be interested in writing to them or finding other ways of supporting them during their time in prison.
There is a fund to raise money for these prisoners as well as other Ferguson-related prisoners who did not want their information listed here but still deserve our support. This money will be used to send commissary to these folks during their incarceration.
Although everyone on this list has given permission for their information to be shared in this way, the presence of their information here in no way indicates that they hold any particular political viewpoint.
*Please note that some of these people are still pre-trial. If you wish to write to these folks, please see the note below. Addresses are subject to change for some of the people and there's a potential that more people will be added to the list. If this happens, we will be sure to update the list.

We saw ourselves among those who fought where they stood, the looters, the wild ones, the festive ones- opposite the shop-owners, cops, preachers, and activist and professional politicians who told us to calm down, go home, or pray. We recognize what went down in Ferguson was beautifully vast and can't be codified into a historicized blurb. We're just a small group trying to get the backs of people we connected with on the streets through a conversation, head nod, smile, or common fit of anger. We can't forget those they took from us and from the fight; we can't leave them isolated in the dust of the storms of yesterday.

North Korean embassy officials demanded a hair salon owner took down a poster poking fun at the country's leader.
The advert in the window at M&M Hair Academy showed a picture of dictator Kim Jong-un with the caption "Bad Hair Day?"
Last month the country decreed that the Dear Leader's cut was the only one its male citizens were allowed.
Salon owner Mo Nabbach took the poster down but later reinstated it after Facebook comments saying the request to remove it was a "breach of democracy".
Mo v North Korea isn't the first and undoubtedly won't be the last David v Goliath style battle to hit the headlines.
When grannies rebel
Granny Enid Jones made a stand against supermarket giant Tesco by refusing to sell her home to make way for a huge new car park.
The 58-year-old from Aberystwyth is the last remaining resident on a street which the superstore wants to bulldoze.
The local council approved planning for a new superstore and issued compulsory purchase order which could see her lose her house.
All of her 11 other neighbours have agreed to sell-up and move on. Not Enid. She has taken her fight to the Welsh government who are now holding a planning inquiry to see whether she can be kicked out.
Avoiding the taxman's honeytrap
Christian beekeepers Graham and Abigail Blackburn took on the might of the HMRC after they were ordered to file their VAT returns online.
The couple run a small business making honey, and were told they had to follow new guidelines on taxation.
But they are members of the Seventh Day Adventist Church who shun modern technology so refused to use the internet to file their return.
The tax authorities said the refusal to use the Internet was a personal preference and not part of their religion.
However, a tribunal sided with the Blackburns saying their treatment by the HMRC violated their human rights.
Taking Redbull by the horns
Soft drink giant Red Bull went to town on a tiny Norwich microbrewery claiming its name was too similar and infringed its trademark.
In a letter to the brewer Redwell, which employs just eight people, Red Bull insisted they could not use the word Red as they owned the trademark.
They also objected to the second half of the name "well" as it had the same last two letters as "Bull".
Redwell director Benjamin Thompson vowed to fight back saying: "We called ourselves Redwell after Redwell Street in Norwich. It's not just some random name we picked from thin air."
Minnows Redwell eventually claimed victory after Red Bull agreed not to pursue any legal action as long as Redwell stuck to producing beer and not energy drinks.
A victory for the Red, White and Blue
Sports fans everywhere raised a toast to pub landlady Karen Murphy when she took on the Premier League and Sky Sports – and won.
Karen, 47, was fined £8,000 for using Greek firm Nova instead of Sky to screen footie matches in her Red, White and Blue pub in Southsea.
But in 2011 the European Court of Justice overturned her conviction saying the Premier League's exclusive deal with Sky was contrary to EU law.
Karen had been paying just £800 a year to use Nova, compared to almost £700 per month that Sky would have cost her.
She said: "It's been the battle of the little guy – these corporate people feel they can throw money at things and just win. We are just a tiny pub at the end of the day."
Karate Kid beats the bully
A masked mugger picked on the wrong kid when he tried to rob 12-year-old Jake Oliver of his mobile phone.
Karate champion Jake, from Bristol, turned the tables on the 15st thug and used his martial arts skills to defend himself.
When the stocky mugger jumped out from a bush and demanded he hand over his phone, Jake delivered a karate chop leaving his attacker with a broken nose.
The bleeding yob ran off empty handed.
Jaguar sent away with its tail between its legs
Motoring giant Jaguar/Land Rover took on the hipsters of East London – and lost.
Bar and gallery Jaguar Shoes was named after the old shoe shop it replaced. The business was ticking along nicely until they tried to register their name as a trademark.
They then came to the attention of Jaguar/Land Rover who launched legal proceedings against the trendy bar.
After two years of wrangling and a petition backing Jaguar Shoes, the car giant backed down and the little bar was allowed to keep its name.

Great Salt Bay Sanitary District (GSBSD) is a joint water and wastewater utility located in Damariscotta, Maine, a mid-coast community of about 2,000 people. Originally a wastewater treatment facility, the GSBSD began supplying drinking water in 1994 to Damariscotta and its sister city, Newcastle, Maine.
The source water for GSBSD is Little Pond, a pristine 77-acre pond about a mile into the Maine woods. Since arriving at the district in 1986, Superintendent Mary Bowers has worked diligently to protect and proactively manage this source water by acquiring 95% of the watershed property. As a result of this management program, plus Little Pond's outstanding water quality, low turbidity and absence of coliform bacteria, GSBSD has been granted a waiver from the surface water filtration requirement of the 1986 Safe Drinking Water Act.
Until 2006, the district treated its water only with chlorine. During the regularly scheduled tests for maximum contaminant level (MCL) standards, however, the district was found to be in noncompliance with the Disinfection Byproduct Rule because of the presence of excessive amounts of haloacetic acid.
This noncompliance triggered a treatment technique violation and as a result, the Maine Drinking Water Program (DWP), which oversees federal drinking water laws within the state, began making plans to withdraw the GSBSD filtration waiver. Additionally, excessive levels of lead were found in some of the district's older homes because lead was leaching from the outdated plumbing.
Keeping the waiver was critical to district customers because it averted the considerable expense of constructing and running a filtration plant. Thus, Bowers began working closely with the DWP to locate any potential legal exceptions that might allow GSBSD to retain its filtration waiver. Fortunately, there existed such a law—the Seattle Amendment, which was applicable due to the pristine nature of the source water. This law, along with the cooperation of the DWP, allowed the district to resolve the haloacetic acid issue with the waiver intact.
In March 2007, the DWP issued a formal consent order which outlined the activities and milestones that could bring GSBSD back into compliance. Shortly thereafter, with the assistance of a grant from the DWP, Bowers began working with the engineering firm Woodard & Curran to decide the most practical and cost-effective methods for meeting the treatment requirements.
Compliance Measures
One of the first projects was to search for accessible groundwater to blend with the Little Pond surface water, but no suitable groundwater was found. GSBSD then began a pilot project in which two relevant treatment changes were made; sodium silicates were added to sequester the lead, and ammonia was added to convert the chlorine to chloramines, thereby preventing the formation of the haloacetic acid. These additions successfully put GSBSD back into compliance, and the district is now in the process of constructing a permanent chemical feed building.
In line with the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency's Long Term 2 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule (LT2), the consent order also required GSBSD to install an ultraviolet (UV) disinfection system, to be validated by June 2009. Because the district has a small customer base, cost was an important issue for this requirement. In addition, with only a few district employees available to handle system operations, the level of required maintenance was a significant consideration.
The following items were carefully researched during the decision-making process:
Woodard & Curran created a list of potential district-appropriate UV systems, and Bowers called for references and the location of working installations. She visited several of them and talked primarily with the UV system operators, believing that their hands-on knowledge would be most valuable for her purposes. Upon completion of this research, Bowers and the engineer found the Trojan 2L12 MP unit to be most suitable for the district and recommended its purchase to GSBSD's trustees. At the time of print, units were just scheduled to begin operation, so no feedback was available on the working system.
Lessons Learned
When asked if she had any advice for other small, rural communities facing similar treatment choices, Bowers suggested the following steps for making a difficult task a bit easier:
GSBSD has additional upcoming challenges as a result of a new Maine law set to take effect, which regulates surface water withdrawals. Nevertheless, the district has successfully resolved its treatment issues and hopes that this experience may be instructive for others in similar situations.

Brazilian Ecotourism - Atlantic Forest and Mountain Regions
by Roberto Mourão
The Atlantic Forest ecosystem follows the Brazilian coastline and is the region most visited by Brazilian and foreign tourists. Many of Brazil's major cities are situated there: Rio de Janeiro, Salvador, Curitiba, Natal, Porto Seguro and Recife, many of which also provide access to other ecosystems, such as the Savanna and the Mountain Regions.
The first contact with Brazil of settlers almost five centuries ago, the Atlantic Forest has suffered from an intense process of occupation and consequent destruction as the result of the establishment and development of large cities which accelerated even further the process of degradation, exposing the fauna and flora to serious risks of extinction. Formerly characterised by dense forests rich in vegetable species, and still with vestiges of one of the largest biodiversities of the planet, the Atlantic Forest, with less than 5% of its original vegetation, is the Brazilian ecosystem most threatened by human occupation.
With relief varying from sea level to 2,000 metres above sea level, and responsible for its peculiar climate and temperatures, the Atlantic Forest has rivers and brooks which turn into waterfalls and cataracts and presents mountains and mountain ranges which still have occasional areas of forest with a wealth of flora and fauna. These mountain regions allow countless ecotourism activities and particularly the practice of sports such as walking, camping, canoeing, rafting, climbing and mountaineering.
The city of Rio de Janeiro has the largest urban forest in the world, the Tijuca National Park with an area of 3,300 hectares, on the highest point of which, the Corcovado mountain, there stands one of the city's symbols: the statue of Christ the Redeemer. One of the destinations most visited by tourists who come to Brazil, the Tijuca Forest allows ecotourists to go on walks and observe wildlife. In the Park there are also Pedra da Gávea, with a summit over 800 metres above sea level which may be reached on foot, and Pedra Bonita, with a take-off ramp for hang gliding and parapeting.
In the Atlantic Forest there are several parks and reserves full of lush vegetation despite the poor infrastructure of some, as accommodation is provided generally at hotels and inns on their periphery. These include the Iguaçu National Park, in the State of Paraná; the Aparados da Serra National Park in Rio Grande de Sul; the Itatiaia National Park and the Serra dos Orgãos Park, in Rio de Janeiro State; and the Caparaó National Park and Serra de Canastra, in the State of Minas Gerais.
It is important for amateur and professional speleologists to know that most Brazilian caves are to be found in the Atlantic Forest, in the Savanna or in its transitional area, especially in the States of Bahia, Ceará, Goiás, Mato Grosso, Minas Gerais, Paraná, Pernambuco and São Paulo. In the State of São Paulo alone, in the Alto do Ribeira State Tourist Park (Petar) there are over 200 caves, around 40 of which may be visited by appropriately dressed and equipped persons, accompanied by specialist guides. Permits, guides and clothing and equipment hire are available at specialist agencies near the areas with caves.

Michael Laverty looking for redemption as Andy Reid views world options
Michael Laverty will have had a couple of sleepless nights this week having dropped out of the British Superbike Championship's elite top six Showdown club. The Tyco BMW rider, who has won two races this season and was lying third in the Showdown podium credit stakes before crashing out the top six last weekend at Oulton Park, will get the chance to redeem himself this coming weekend.
Donington Park is the first of the final three rounds in this season's British Superbike Championship and, whilst the Presteigne-based Ulsterman cannot mathematically win the title, he will be looking to add to his race wins and podium tally as the job hunting season gets under way for 2017.
After lacklustre rounds at Brands Hatch and Cadwell Park, Laverty had seemingly done enough in race two at Oulton Park last weekend to maintain his top six position, but a last lap crash left him with an uphill battle in race three.
A sixth row grid position was never the best place to start from and, despite a heroic effort, fourth place just wasn't enough to stop Luke Mossey from leapfrogging him in the championship standings. With September the month for seeking new contracts, Laverty will now need to show his best at Donington Park to keep his hopes alive of a third year on the Tyco BMW.
Another Ulsterman whose season went pear-shaped at Oulton Park was British Supersport contender Andy Reid.
A crash during practice resulted in a fractured wrist for the Jordanstown rider, all but ending his season. He goes under the knife today in Dublin to repair the offending break with hopes of a return at the final round on October 15/16.
Reid is understood to be considering a move to the Superbike class next season in the British championship, but will visit the Lausitzring this weekend as a guest of Milwaukee BMW, whose team owner Shaun Muir manages his affairs.
Is a World Supersport move on the cards or a European stock ride on an Aprilia?

Treehouse Records is the current incarnation of a series of storied record stores at the corner of 26th and Lyndale in south Minneapolis. After becoming Oar Folkjokeopus in 1972 it quickly emerged as the epicenter for the burgeoning 70s and 80s Twin Cities punk scene. Renamed Treehouse in 2001 after the Oar Folk manager took over the business, the store remains a staple of the Twin Cities underground/independent music community and the best source for vinyl in the state.

text: Today's Doodle is also up for auction on eBay at this link. I am starting the bidding on this one at $5.99 - testing the waters with different start prices. I hope the color of this watercolor is showing up well on this blog - it is very rich in person, but shows darker on my Cintiq and lighter on my Viewsonic, so I can guess it won't be the same on everyone's monitor. This miniature black and tan Dachshund posing in a freshly carved pumpkin would be a fun thing to gift in a Halloween card for a friend - and costs about the same as a card! A good way to get started with original art. A lot of my day has been devoted to making arrangements to rescue some kitties down the street from me. Their owner was evicted and I think I can help them get new homes, but first they need to be tested for contagious diseases. I think one of them is our cat Pingu's Uncle - he looks just like her sister from our rescued litter last year.

The Roxian Theatre is currently under development to reopen as a rock music venue in the McKees Rocks downtown business district. At 1500 seats, it will fill the void in Pittsburgh for a mid-size contemporary concert space, making the region more attractive to national acts and essentially changing the music scene all together.
The Roxian first opened its doors in 1928 as a vaudeville movie house with luxury amenities.
The Pittsburgh Press captured the theatre in its debut article on January 13, 1928:
The Roxian Theatre embodies all the current ideas in deluxe theater construction. It is of elegant beauty and unusual architecture. Equipment throughout is complete and modern. There are men's and women's lounges; a spacious and luxuriously furnished mezzanine floor, a large fully equipped stage and other accessories to service and comfort, such as a ventilation system which assures patrons of year-round comfort.
Despite its initial success, the Theatre closed its doors in 1979, and again in 2003 after a short stint as the Emerald Room nightclub. Although the Roxian has been dark for over ten years, redevelopment efforts are finally causing a comeback to come to fruition.
Roxian Theatre Development Updates:
Feasibility Study – In the Fall of 2013, MRCDC and the Palmer Westport Group consulting firm completed a feasibility study to determine whether or not the Roxian Theatre was a viable project. With the help of this nationally acclaimed consultant, MRCDC was able get in front of 41 Pittsburgh leaders, government officials, business owners and foundations to identify that there is an appetite for this type of venue. The study produced two main conclusions. Funders feel strongly that the Father Ryan Arts Center must be a part of the Roxian Theatre development, and a plan that positions the two organizations as part of one arts and entertainment center must be created. These requirements will guide us as we move forward in creating a Master Plan for the Roxian.
Market Assessment – The viability of the Roxian was further tested as the Palmer Westport Group and MRCDC joined forces once again to perform a market analysis on the geographic area surrounding the Theatre. This assessment provides demographic, consumer and lifestyle information at the block group level of all residents within a 30-minute drive time. We found that 36% of regional households show high demand for Roxian Theatre programs and another 56% show average to above average demand. The total population in these two groups is 973,760; a healthy statistic that will be a key feature in presenting business plans to potential funders and the general community.
Master Plan– To best understand the implications and opportunities of such an endeavor, MRCDC and Father Ryan Arts Center are jointly undertaking a master planning process. A key part of the success of the Plan is to incorporate the oversight of select community leaders to ensure that our efforts are accurate, complete, and reflect the realities of our community.
The first steps in creating this strategy have been completed with the guidance of the Palmer Westport Group. In May 2014, the MRCDC, Father Ryan Arts Center, and PWG held a weeklong series of advisory, visionary and focus group meetings to discuss the future not only for the Roxian, but for the district as a whole. Through these group meetings, MRCDC secured a group of major advisors, potential investors and an overall vision for the Arts and Entertainment District.
Façade Improvements – After years of anticipation, the façade improvements on the Roxian Theatre came to fruition in June 2014. Structural work was completed in stabilizing the roof and exterior, and the storefront and an elaborate blade sign were installedas well. The new storefront reflects the original design as an ode to the rich history of this building. Although the grand opening is a few years away, the new blade sign should generate interest in both the project and the Sto-Rox area.
Potential Private Partner/Equity Investor –While working through the feasibility study and master plan, we have done a deeper amount of vetting with potential operator candidates. Based upon this, our leading candidate appears to be a partner with demonstrated success in the industry, who has been looking to expand. With their business experience and demonstrated success, the MRCDC is confident that they are the best candidate for this opportunity. After several formal meetings with this equity investor and business partners, they are in the process of producing a rough business plan that incorporates the venue, the MRCDC and the Father Ryan Arts Center.
The Theatre is tentatively scheduled to open in 2018. Please check in with the McKees Rocks Community Development Corporation for updates.


text: I had a discussion with my husband earlier this week about the way I would guess I am most annoying to live with. I try and analyze and logic everything. Best way to load the dishwasher? I have a researched system. Buying a new house? I had a spreadsheet with multiple criteria and a weighted metric for each. I research everything, and try to apply logic to every situation. I took one of those online psych assessments recently regarding personality type, and it said I don't need or seek out romance because it isn't logical enough for me. This is a huge pain in the butt when he just want to know what to do for lunch. What are your cohabitation issues?

"Volvo blends sleek Swedish design with the latest in safety technology, proving you can be good-looking and smart." - Car and Driver
At Volvo of Lisle, we don't believe in prioritizing. We think that driving dynamics, design, and technology should all be on the same level, with no room for compromise. The 2017 Volvo S60 near Aurora is a good example of this manufacturer's similar thinking, offering a velvety drive with athletic handling. With four different engine choices across three trims, you can pick the performance you want based on your regular driving conditions: this vehicle is available in both front- and all-wheel drive.
- Best-in-class fuel consumption
- 240 to 325-horsepower
- 258 to 295 lb-ft. of torque

The understated elegance of the 2017 S60 is its crowning achievement. Watch the world fly by in available leather seating, with 3-position memory seats for the driver who wants every ride to have just the right settings. Oak Park area Volvo shoppers are accustomed to luxury, but not like this: available 18" Titania alloy wheels boldly announce your arrival, while an available power sunroof makes it possible for you to experience the elements on your terms.
- Standard Dual Xenon Headlights
- Power sunroof
- Spacious interior
- Leather sport seats
It seems that many manufacturers have their own infotainment interface, so what sets Volvo's Sensus system apart? Is it the intuitive and thoughtful placement of your favorite apps? Is it the available navigation system, which integrates 3D imaging, voice recognition, routing options and built-in apps like Find Parking right into your display? Whatever you love about automotive tech, the 2017 S60 has it, and has made it great.
- Sensus in-car technology
- WiFi hotspot
- Volvo On Call app
- Harman Kardon® premium sound system
Safety is at the front of every driver's mind, and at our Volvo dealer serving Oak Park, we wouldn't feel comfortable providing you with a vehicle won't keep you and yours safe. Fortunately, the refinement and sophistication of the 2017 S60 doesn't end, so every single one is equipped with Intellisafe, a host of safety features that are normally options on lesser vehicles. In addition to a suite of airbags, the 2017 S60 also boasts the City Safety auto-braking mechanism, which senses an oncoming collision and brakes for you to mitigate or prevent a collision.
- Forward Collision Warning with Auto Brakes
- Blind Spot Information System

Fun learning MySQL
I recently took a course in schhol in DB's, which was (plz: no laughs...) using M$ Access. I asked my instructor if I could use something else, and he said it would be okay as long as that 'somethig else' was good. So now I had a bg question before me. What is 'good'? A lot of questions and a lot more internet searches later I thought MySQL could be something worth a try.
I used it to prepare a DB of all the songs that I had on my computer :-) it was fun and easy to learn. Moreover, thanks to a friend of mine I used PHP to have a nice lil browser-based interface. The server has been running for about 10 days with no problems so far, and I get to listen to my own 'streaming media' anywhere (minus the irritating popup ads).
For a beginer, I think three things are necessary:
a. Ease of install
b. Detailed documentation
c. Online support (forums, etc.)
I dont know if Postgres, etc. have these criteria met, but I did find mysql quite useful.At the end of the day I was not only able to learn something new and useful, but I had fun learning it.
Now I think I could swim into some 'serious waters'....
A tool for securing DNS communications between a client and a DNS resolver.

Roger: Offering an each-way bet on punter interest (aarghh!), Elite has combined most facets of Aintree's only claim to be anything other than a centre of unusually high unemployment. After all, isn't it better to train people to infest the bookie's rather than hang about on street corners?
The packaging has the essential form guide, which introduced rank outsiders to the opening screens of listed equestrian delights, whose odds change as racing history progresses. Besides the opportunity to spread basic stake money through the field, a player is also given the chance to take Spectrum reins in hand, riding a chosen nag.
The thunderous assault in Liverpudlian turf is represented by a sectionalised action profile of your trusty steed. This allows judgement of fearsome hedge approaches, and an aerial 'plan' view of fences, jumps and all the other old donkeys thrashing about, to facilitate barging one's way through to the front... This is one game that ain't gonna be pulling a 48K milkfloat the day after. 5/5 HIT
Dave: This is a pretty safe bet. It could be a touch faster in the race sequence but the horsey graphics are well observed and the betting side of it adds just the right amount of excitement. Go on, 'ave a flutter! 4/5 HIT
Ross: Too slow for a true arcade and the graphics reminded me of those 'flick' books. If you don't go down the bookies, don't bother. 2/5 MISS

It's common knowledge that I laugh a lot....well I have never laughed harder on a photo shoot then I did while photographing these two love birds. They are the most hilarious couple I've ever met in my life. And I mean that!
They also have the sweetest story in the world.
Kylee and Zac have been friends since high school and as a matter of fact even went to prom together they told me and they always remained friends.
About a year and a half ago Kylee was diagnosed with a extremely rare muscle disorder/disease.
All the while Zac stood by her side.
However at the time, Zac and Kylee weren't serious in a relationship as Kylee was waiting for a guy who was serving a two year mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
But Zac waited patiently for Kylee to realize that they were meant for each other.
After Kylee was diagnosed and things were looking devastating Zac helped Kylee write a bucket list and would arrange for him and her to pass off the bucket list together.
Kylee's missionary got home and needless to say things didn't work out between them. All the while Zac stood in waiting.
And now the rest is history.
Zac loves Kylee so much and there isn't much he wouldn't do for her.
Because of Kylee's disease she tires really fast. I said to Zac at the shoot "you might have to carry her" and he said "I'll carry her anywhere".
Their love is amazing and their joy is incredible.
It is an honor to be able to photograph them and a joy to be around them.

The Grey's Anatomy season 9 finale left us with many questions, the main one being: Will Richard survive? Since then, season 10 promos have made it clear that "the storm isn't over yet," and now we've got a first look at what that ominous sentence could mean, particularly for one intern.
In a new clip from season 10, we see Bailey send Shane to go find Richard. But when Shane sees the opportunity to get back on Shepherd's good side, he takes it, which leaves Brooks to discover the former chief lying next to the generator, still unconscious after being electrocuted. And to make bad news worse, Brooks reacts to seeing Richard a little too quickly, a mistake that could cost her her life.
Watch the sneak peek below:
Grey's Anatomy season 10 premieres this Thursday at 9 p.m. on ABC.

Major Assembly Starts on Bell V-280 Valor Fuselage
- Advanced tiltrotor to offer significant capabilities increase in speed, range and access
Bell Helicopter, a Textron Inc. (NYSE: TXT) company, and Spirit AeroSystems Inc. (NYSE: SPR) today announced major assembly has started on the Bell V-280 Valor fuselage.
"Spirit AeroSystems brings decades of composite manufacturing experience to the team which allows us to quickly build an aircraft like the V-280," said Phil Anderson, Spirit AeroSystems senior vice president of Defense. "This is a major milestone for the technology demonstrator unit. Spirit AeroSystems is proud to be on Team Valor and we are excited to be designing and building the composite cabin and cockpit for the V-280."
Global Military Aircraft Battery Market Research Report 2017
"U.S. ground forces require significant increase in speed and range to operate against and strike adversary systems much deeper than existing platforms," said Mitch Snyder, executive vice president of Military Business for Bell Helicopter. "That is the vision for Future Vertical Lift. The V-280 advanced technology tiltrotor provides the Department of Defense (DoD) with unmatched speed, range and payload for expeditionary maneuver to win these future conflicts. We are confident in the capability that the V-280 will provide, and we are proud to have Spirit AeroSystems adding their expertise to Team Valor and to the V-280. Spirit AeroSystems beginning major assembly on the V-280 fuselage brings this high-performance aircraft one step closer to completion."
The delivery of the first V-280 fuselage to the Bell Helicopter facility in Amarillo, Texas, is expected later this year. First flight of the V-280 Technology Demonstrator is anticipated in the second half of 2017.
With more than twice the speed and twice the range of current helicopter platforms, the Bell V-280 is designed to provide combatant commanders with the ability to reach the battlefield while providing superior low-speed agility at the objective. The efficient speed and reduced reaction time provided by the V-280 will allow operators to outmaneuver their adversaries. The tiltrotor's speed, range and payload significantly reduce logistical, security and medical footprints, freeing up personnel and additional combat power.
Bell Helicopter has led the formation of Team Valor, a group of preeminent aerospace companies bringing the best engineering resources and industrial capabilities to meet the Department of Defense's anticipated needs.

"Americans just want to know what they're eating," said the group's nutrition policy director, Margo G. Wootan. "It doesn't make sense to create loopholes for certain companies, when that's not what Congress intended and it's not what people want."
Wootan was referring to the 2010 healthcare law, which established calorie labeling across many venues that would not be included under the final rule.
CSPI noted in a release that the restaurant lobby, with which it is often at odds, agrees that calorie-labeling rules should not discriminate between food vendors.
"We believe the Proposed Rule arbitrarily and unjustifiably excludes establishments that are not only similar to, but actually function as, restaurants," the National Restaurant Association wrote to federal regulators in reference to the rule.
According to the release, the poll was conducted from May 24 to 27 and surveyed 1,012 adults.

Tiled 0.11.0 can now be downloaded from the Tiled website!
This release was meant to come much sooner after Tiled 0.10, but other things kept taking my time. The main new feature is the support for hexagonal maps, but even if you don't need this there are many other reasons to update.
The changelog:
Thanks to everybody who submitted patches and updated translations! And of course also thanks to all the people submitting feature requests and bug reports. I only have time to tackle some of the requests, but it always helps to know what are the more important issues to work on next. Finally, thanks to those who have donated! Every donation I receive is a confirmation that Tiled is really useful and that spending time on improving Tiled is worthwhile!
Now that 0.11 is out I will look again at the larger pull requests to see what could go into Tiled 0.12. I also want to define a clear roadmap to "Tiled 1.0" and start thinking about what's next. It all requires time of course, which I will come back about later as well.
For now, enjoy the new release!
Fantastic job! Tiled just keeps on getting better and better! Thanks for everything you do.
First: I love Tiled, I've been using it - off and on - in a XNA RPG I've been working on in my spare time for the past 2 years. Lurked here awhile, finally posted.
Small typo: The downloads page lists the newest version 0.11.0 with a "11 January 2014" release. This should be 2015. It confused me for a bit until I saw this post
I opened a pullrequest for this: https://github.com/bjorn/tiled-website/pull/18
@Phantasie, @Ablu: Thanks guys, fix merged!
That was quick.
PS, this was the first time I've merged up since .09 ish.
I'm so grateful for now being able to multi-select tiles and apply a custom property to all of them. I was planning on grabbing the source and adding that myself, so this is great!

Working against the backdrop of a global art practice that is all too often a self-contained tautology, my body of work has from the earliest point in my career delved into the question of the "gay sensibility". As the former chief archivist with the International Gay History Archive – now part of the Rare Books and Manuscript division of the New York Public Library – I was impacted directly in my understanding of the broader context of our political, social, and cultural lives. This provided me with a wealth of raw data that fed directly into my art practice. But rather than take the standard trip down memory lane into the suck-and-fuck paradigm I began cherry-picking at will from mutually exclusive sources -- the morning headlines, the official record of 20th century art, the signs and signifiers of the gay male underground – which allowed me to explore the spaces between these charged relationships. As an amalgam of Aubrey Beardsley and Johnny Rotten, I've positioned myself as an ironic spectator.
It is old news that the male body continues to be a provocation, but oddly a critique of masculinity has gone largely unexplored. And herein lies the challenge. Influenced by the theoretical issues raised by performance and conceptual art, the proposition explored in much of my work is that it should be possible to be simultaneously hot and sweaty and critical and detached. It is desirable -- even exhilarating -- to question the givens of our cultural baggage while at the same time allowing ourselves to be wrapped in its brawny arms. If there is any theme that unites my disparate body of work it is that it concentrates on the representative gestures of maleness and explores the demilitarized zone lying between desire and despair.
Even though art is virtually indefinable, this much I know for certain: necks are meant for sticking out; envelopes are meant for pushing. Art is not suitable for family viewing nor must it be emotionally uplifting. Art must refuse to kowtow to the limitless demands for the familiar and the safe and the conventional. Art has nothing to do with social work or political stability or with the ending of negative stereotypes: these are the jobs for propagandists.

He Burns Coffee Grounds In His Backyard. The Reason Why Is Genius!
One of the most annoying things in summer are the mosquitoes. They are also allergies and severe viruses like Zika that can be transmitted by the irritating little buggers.
On the other side there are many industrial products for flushing the insects but they are dangerous and hazardous chemicals.
Why to buy these dangerous products when you have the solution of the problem at your home.
Coffee grounds are the solution.
Just put fresh coffee grounds in a bowl and cover it with aluminum foil.
Leave this bowl in a dark, cool place and let the grounds dry totally. After that place the coffee in the garden where you are sitting and burn it.
If there are too many mosquitoes add some fresh bay leaf to the coffee premises and burn them together.
This is low cost and effective method so try it tonight.

Manchester City midfielder Nigel de Jong will not be playing for Holland in the upcoming two qualifying matches for the 2012 European Championships after his "horror tackle" at the weekend.
The 'tackle' left Newcastle United's Hatem Ben Arfa with a fractured leg. The Holland manager Bert van Marwijk said he'd broached the issue with De Jong before, following a series of other dangerous challenges.
The Dutch team is due to play away against Moldova on 7 October and at home against Sweden on 12 October.
Mr van Marwijk has meanwhile picked FC Twente midfielder Wout Brama and Urby Emanuelson of Ajax Amsterdam to complete his 22-man squad.

The Miscast Pugilist
The article reported Patterson's death at age 71. It opened with his greatest victory, the 1960 recapture of the heavyweight championship from the big Swede Ingemar Johansson. I admired the writer for starting with the
"If it weren't for boxing, I'd probably be in jail or dead," said Patterson in the '98 interview. In that one sentence he explained how he could be a great champion without having been a great fighter. Patterson didn't fight for love of fighting. Like a junkie struggling to stay straight, he fought to avoid what he would become if he didn't.
Jim Murray, the late Pulitzer winning L.A. Times sports columnist once wrote: "An intense, gentle, tormented young man, perpetually sad, perpetually bedeviled by nameless anxieties, Floyd Patterson is pathetically miscast as a pugilist."
Patterson took up boxing in reform school. He punched his way out of profound poverty and a crushing sense of inferiority. He won a gold medal in the 1952 Olympics as a middle weight. After undefeated champion Rocky Marciano retired in 1956, Patterson beat the aging, but dangerous knock-out artist Archie Moore to become the youngest world heavyweight champion ever — a record that stood until 1986.
Patterson was never as big as modern heavyweights. Speed, not size, was his strongest weapon. He could land six and eight punch combinations in a blinding flash. Launching an attack out of a low crouch behind raised gloves he often delivered the last of a barrage of punches with his feet clear of the ground.
He successfully defended his championship four times against unknown challengers before fighting the flashy European champ Ingemar Johansson at Yankee Stadium in 1959. Johansson had the flash and cockiness Patterson never would. He always traveled with a huge entourage and his voluptuous fiancée. Patterson's bouts with Johansson probably saved them both from deep obscurity.
Johansson was big. Next to Patterson he appeared to fight in slow motion. But in their first fight he delivered enough big slow punches to knock Patterson down seven times. The referee stopped the match. Patterson had lost his title in an embarrassing upset.
The rematch at the Polo Grounds in
Even in redemptive victory Patterson waited to celebrate, first kneeling beside his unconscious opponent to see if he was all right. Patterson said later, "He lay there, kicking, I didn't figure then that he was gonna get up." Johansson did get up. Patterson knocked him out again a year later in
The reluctant warrior, Patterson later said of his second championship win, "I was so filled with hate. I wouldn't ever want to be like that again."
He should have saved a little for the thug, Sonny Liston. Liston outweighed Patterson by 30 pounds and had a reach more than a foot longer. Patterson's manager didn't want the fight but Floyd refused to deny a contender a fair shot. Showing fans why boxing is divided into weight classes, Liston knocked Patterson out in the first round to win the championship. He did it again a year later.
Patterson was no longer the champ. Now he was just a fighter. He continued to fight because that's what fighters do. He was past his prime but still a dangerous boxer. His record from his second loss to Liston until he retired was 17 and 4. Among his loses were two to Muhammad Ali and a razor thin, disputed decision for the WBA championship in '68 to Jimmy Ellis. A win there would have made Patterson the first three time champion. Muhammad Ali ended Patterson's career in 1972 with a TKO in the 7th round.
Mike Levine wrote movingly for the upstate
Throughout his career and his life Patterson displayed a soft-spoken, polite intelligence that has all but vanished from American sport and American life. The reluctant warrior wore his triumphs and his humiliations with dignity and grace.
Boxing, like baseball, is a sport thick with statistics. Floyd Patterson holds the record for total times a heavyweight champ has been knocked down. When someone told him about it, he said no champ has ever gotten up as many times either.
Floyd Patterson was by no means professional boxing's greatest fighter, but he will always be one of its greatest champions.

text: I bought an extra battery for my H on the 6th of July from a seller on EBAY, I was super excited because the battery was only $95!! After a week of not hearing anything about a tracking # and no sign of a package I decided to contact the seller on the 16th. They said it had already shipped and they would send out another one if I didn't get anything... Meanwhile they posted a FedEx tracking number that said it had already been delivered on the 14th but when I check my security cameras on the 14th there is no deliveries that day. I have checked every inch of my property inside and out for this "already delivered" package and have found nothing. something interesting: -The FedEx # says that the package weights 1lb, but the battery and packaging that I got from my other yuneec H batteries weights over 1.5lbs. now its in EBAY's hands, who will probably side with the seller due to a tracking #. Is there anything I can do about this? The seller is being a complete *** about this in his messages to me and until I have a battery in my hands I believe I have been scammed out of $95 ***EDIT*** Quickshipco is a drop shipper, deal at your own risk ***EDIT***

Yes Kevin O'Leary, also known as Mr. Wonderful from the reality shows Dragon's Den and it's American counterpart Shark Tank, is going to be vying for a vote into Conservative leadership…. and then possibly a vote into Parliament as Prime Minster.
He confirmed it this morning with a live video on his Facebook page. He left it to a vote on his website if Canadians thought he should go for it or not, and over 40 thousand people voted…. that was enough for him to make his decision.
He's a brilliant business man, but could he be a good leader? Is he the next Trump? They both come from business backgrounds, reality TV, and no previous experience. At least he has better…. hair?

Standard & Poor's downgrade of Japan's credit rating is a wake-up call for the Asian country to deal with its ballooning debt problem, Japanese industry leaders said at Davos.
"In a way it's good because it really forces people to understand because there is still resistance within Japan towards raising taxes, which you obviously need," Daisuke Iwase, who co-founded Lifenet Insurance, told AFP.
Standard & Poor's on Thursday cut Japan's credit rating for the first time since 2002, dropping its long-term sovereign debt to "AA minus" from "AA".
The agency accused the government of lacking a "coherent strategy" to ease what, at 200 percent, is the highest debt proportional to GDP of any industrialised nation.
To date, the Japanese government has been able to fund its growing fiscal gap by raising money in the domestic market, with around 95 percent of the country's huge debt held domestically via banks and pension schemes.
Iwase, who spoke to AFP on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum, said the fact that most of the debt was funded by domestic savings had engendered a sort of optimism in Japan regarding the issue, but that he was sceptical.
He warned that any external triggers such as a credit downgrade could nevertheless lead to a sell-off of Japanese bonds, thereby sparking a crisis.
"There are people who think they can avoid reducing spending. It's absurd.
"In a way, not in a selfish way, but in the medium to long run, if this is the only way Japanese politicians can understand the change and the only way that general public can understand change, then this is good," he added.
Miyahara Koji, chairman of Japanese shipping giant Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha, said: "The Japanese people need a shock."
The businessman said the government should increase the sales tax immediately.
"We need to restructure the budget, expenditure," he said, noting that one of the root problems is a structural one linked to the ageing population.
"It's very difficult because you can't change the structure of the population. The very bad thing is that elderly people are very rich, but they don't want to consume," he added.
Standard & Poor's said that it expected the country's groaning fiscal deficits to stay high in coming years.
"The downgrade reflects our appraisal that Japan's government debt ratios -- already among the highest for rated sovereigns -- will continue to rise further than we envisaged before the global economic recession hit the country and will peak only in the mid-2020s," S&P said.
It was the first downgrade of a G7 member since Italy in October 2006, and underlined mounting problems with national debts since the 2008 financial crisis. Four eurozone members including Spain suffered downgrades last year.
The cut came just two days before Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan is to address the Davos forum.
On Monday, Kan marked the opening of a 150-day parliament session by saying that the nation faces "inevitable" tax increases in the future as a rapidly ageing society pushes social security costs and public debt higher.
The only positive from the downgrade was that it led to a drop in the yen.
The Japanese currency tumbled following the announcement, with the dollar gaining by more than a yen to 83.20 yen from around 82.12 in earlier trade, before recovering to around 82.76 to the dollar.
Tadashi Matsushita, All Nippon Airways spokesman said the Japanese currency "doesn't reflect the real economy."
"In the long run, the yen should be lower," he said, arguing that country's deficit and rapidly ageing population should be reflected in a weaker currency that would, in turn, aid exports.
Ohkawa Shigenori, executive vice-president of Takeda Pharmaceuticals International Inc, also noted that the company had been suffering from the strength of the yen against the US dollar.
Nevertheless, he added: "The government budget problem is a significant and urgent issue and has to be dealt with."

Fuller considers Ipswich offer
By Stephen Bateman
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Ricardo Fuller could be on the verge of joining Ipswich Town in a loan deal.
Ricardo Fuller could be on the verge of joining Ipswich Town in a loan deal.
The Jamaican international is currently weighing up his options after The Tractor Boys pledged a deal that would see him move to Portman Road initially on a temporary basis before possibly making the move permanent at the end of the season.
It is also believed that Portsmouth have offered Fuller a pay-as-you-play deal, although the recent signing of Emmanuel Olisadebe may see that avenue closed off.
While the Southampton striker considers his future, Town are not resting on their laurels, however, as David Sheepshanks told the East Anglian Daily Times: "We have made an enquiry regarding bringing in Ricardo Fuller but he has asked for time to consider his future.
Ç£We are looking at other options which may take preference over our enquiry for Ricardo Fuller.Ç¥
It is understood that those options include Premiership strikers Geoff Horsfield, who is also being targeted by Sheffield United, and Jonatan Johansson.


text: I started having an issue with screen orientation, especially when texting. I like texting in landscape mode because the keyboard on the screen feels more like a real keyboard. But when I turn the phone sideways, the screen does not do anything. Then after about 6 tries or so, it finally does it. Same thing happens when I view the internet and other apps. Is there a certain way to do it for the phone to know you switched or what?

According to the National Rural Health Association, approximately 50 hospitals in the rural United States have closed since 2010. The number of annual closures is growing. Congressional healthcare budget cuts and policy changes significantly affect rural hospitals because rural hospitals often have a disproportionate number of patients who are covered under Medicare, Medicaid or who are uninsured. A number of factors affect and pose challenges to rural hospitals. One challenge is the difficulty of attracting talent, which often means paying more to healthcare professionals in order to recruit them for employment at a rural hospital. Other challenges facing rural hospitals include:
- changing demographics;
- advances in medical practice that the hospital may be unable to implement;
- new federal regulations and standards that create additional compliance related pressure; and
- lower reimbursement rates for Medicare and Medicaid.
Closures of rural hospitals may force individuals to travel long distances for medical care, which may lead to an increase in mortality rates. The closures may discourage business ventures in rural areas due to the increased costs associated with not having a healthcare facility nearby. Metropolitan hospital closings have increased recently, but the existence of medical care alternatives in metropolitan areas typically reduces the effects that closures have on patients.
The changing landscape of healthcare and the current trend of health systems buying physician practices have contributed to the decline of independent physicians. The decline is further fueled by complex government regulation and standards, costly business and management expenses, and technological advances. According to the Orlando Sentinel, recent data from Accenture projects the percentage of independent physicians declining to 33 percent in 2016, down from 57 percent in 2001. CareCloud's "Practice Profitability Index," a 2014 report based on data from an interactive survey and discussion groups that included 5,064 physicians, found that:
- the percentage of participants considering selling is up from 21 percent to 24 percent;
- 11 percent of participants in the study were actively looking to sell; and
- 10 percent of participants in the study had already sold their practice.
The New York Times reported that the number of Americans enrolled in health insurance under the Affordable Care Act ("ACA") has dropped to approximately 13 percent because many failed to pay their portion of their health insurance premiums. Federal officials announced that as of March 31, 2015 10.2 million individuals were enrolled in coverage through the Federal and State Insurance Marketplaces, a reduction from its earlier announcement of 11.7 million enrolled individuals. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services data shows that "2.9 million state-run exchange customers are enrolled and paid up, and 7.3 million Federal marketplace customers are enrolled and paid up." This is an increase from 2014 figures.
Many Americans who receive subsidies through the Federal exchange are at risk of losing their subsidies if the Supreme Court decides in favor of the plaintiffs in King v. Burwell. The plaintiffs in King challenged a U.S. Treasury regulation issued under the ACA, which provides subsidies for coverage purchased through both state and federal exchanges. The plaintiffs challenged the regulation on the ground that the ACA authorizes tax credits only for individuals who purchase insurance on state-established Exchanges.

Calm Down, Taylor Swift Didn't Respond To Your Letter Because She Never Read It
Simmer down, sparky. Before this gets too out of hand, this is a tale of lost mail as far as we can tell, but the fact of the matter is that hundreds of unopened letters addressed to Taylor Swift were found in a dumpster outside a local Nashville school this week, according WKRN in Nashville. So yes, if your letter was in that batch, Swifty didn't read it.
RELATED: Taylor Swift or a Passage from 'The Bell Jar'?
Hold up, though. It may not be her fault. The address on all the letters was for a nearby P.O. box checked often by a member of Swift's team, but this time, a sizable pile of letters wound up wasting away in a garbage dump. Before we all jump to blame Swift, pop culture's favorite punching bag, we must note that there are least a dozen people between her and those letters and it could have been any one of their mistakes. Of course, it could also be that Swift didn't want to read them, but we're just naming theories here, folks. Calm. Down.
A spokesperson for Swift tells WKRN that it was probably just a simple mix-up. "The only explanation for any letters being unopened would be that a small batch of mail that was supposed to be delivered to Taylor was accidentally put with letters headed for the recycling center. We sincerely appreciate Channel 2 bringing this to our attention, and we plan to immediately pick up the mail," says Paula Erikson in response to the Nashville station.
RELATED: Tina Fey to Taylor Swift: 'It Was a Joke'
The letters are now on their way to Swift so that they may be handled properly, but I can tell there are many of you with furrowed brow out there. You've been conditioned by the Internet and you don't believe Swift is innocent in all this. The discarded fan letters decorated with glitter and hearts works too well for your cold-hearted narrative of Taylor Swift, the 1950s housewife and break-up artist whose mowed down so many heartthrobs she's had to seek out new horizons by entering into a relationship with her true love: Diet Coke.
To that, I offer this: Enjoy trying to boycott her ridiculously infectious songs, especially "Trouble." I give you five hours before you find yourself rocking back and forth in front of your computer and listening to the "Trouble (Goat Remix)." (It's the only acceptable remix that won't earn her any revenue. You're welcome.)

Self-supply refers to an approach of incremental improvements to water supplies that are mainly financed by the users themselves (see this Wikipedia entry on Self-supply for more information). Under this approach neither governments nor NGOs provide direct subsidies for capital investment or for operation and maintenance. The products and services for the improvements are usually provided on a commercial basis by local private enterprises. Under a Self-supply approach the users are in charge for choosing the technology they want, the service level they want and the provider of these products and services.
Private investment in water supplies (as well as in sanitation) is already substantial and will grow. A range of technologies are suitable for Self-supply in rural areas. They include hand dug wells and boreholes fitted with pumps, rain water harvesting systems, household water treatment and even piped systems, among others. Self-supply sources have contributed to reaching the MDGs in many countries and will also contribute to the post-MDG targets for water supply. It is essential that efforts by water users themselves to improve their water supplies are better understood and acknowledged, so that this approach can be strengthened and applied where most appropriate.
