re: When do you write your tests? VIEW POST
Well if it's TDD, then tests are written first. But I do "cheat" on few occasions and write the code before writing the test(s).
IMO, the "TDD laws" can be bent sometimes but not too often and you need to be careful when.
But all in all, tests have to be written and cover as much logic as possible (though 100% coverage goal is not an option in reality).
Do you write pseudo code for the tests? Or are you thinking before you write your code that you know what will be there?
Personally, I sketch out what functionality/logic I'll need (typically putting it down as checkboxes in a GitHub issue I've raised for whatever I'm working on) for the feature; I sort of concurrently build up both the production code and the associated unit test - fleshing out the latter's tests as the former calls for new error handling scenarios.
I'm still trying to get better at TDD and I'm pretty flexible with the "laws" in practice.
That's a good question. I usually follow a similar path as the one John mentioned, which is what TDD is all about from my perspective:
- Write down what behavior I expect the test to do, what dependencies it might need. (You can "write" it in your mind as well as long as there's a clear picture of what is needed).
- Then I write down the test to assert that behavior.
- And then the code.
TDD doesn't eliminate the need for design consideration, quite the opposite.
TDD is about design and that's why your question is very important - it's not just the notion of writing tests first and code later.

Everyone's boy Post Malone made headlines this week when he appeared — and got spooked — on an episode of Travel Channel's Ghost Adventures. This recent attention may or may not have spiked interest in the Syracuse rapper's affinity for covering alt-rock songs, because his rendition of Nirvana's "All Apologies" at The House of Blues in Boston last fall is once again making the rounds around the internet. We slept on it then, when he rolled into town on his Stoney tour, so fuck it, we're hyping it now, because it's Friday and everyone loves a good Kurt Cobain impression. Post Malone's take definitely has that Nirvana Unplugged vibe to it, and we just need more of that magic in our lives. Especially in the New England wintertime.

2019: a record-breaking year for Austrian tourism
Holidaymakers from around the world love visiting Austria. After all, where else will they find untouched countryside crystal-clear lakes, breathtaking mountain ranges, impressive cultural amenities, great tourist infrastructure and friendly, welcoming people? And the demand for this incomparable choice is stronger than ever before.
That's why last year saw new record tourism figures, with overnight stays up by +1.9% to 152.64 million in 2019, breaking the 150 million barrier for the first time. The winter season has also enjoyed a positive start to the year.
Overnight stays by both international visitors (up +2.1% to 112.72 million) and domestic tourists (up +1.4% to 39.93 million) rose in 2019, with arrivals (the number of individual guests occupying tourist accommodation) rising by 3% to record levels of 46.18 million.
There was similar growth in the number of overnights stays by holidaymakers from the major visitor countries: holidaymakers from Germany increased by 0.7% (rising to 56.66 million), while stays by travellers from the Netherlands, the second-largest market, were up by 3.1% (to 10.35 million). The highest growth was recorded for visitors from Romania (up 8.8%), while the number of stays for globetrotters from China increased 5.6% (to 1.5 million).
Austria's tourist sector has made a positive start to the 2019/20 winter season, with some 17.4 million overnight stays recorded during the two months of November and December, an increase of 4.5% over the same period in the previous year.

Things to Consider Before Buying a Bolt Cutter
The Quality of the Blade
When purchasing a bolt cutter you need to pay close attention to the quality of the blade. For you to cut any material effectively, the blade needs to be sharp and strong. We would strongly advise that you pick a bolt cutter with a steel blade.
The Handle
The handle ought to be comfy and have a firm grip. It should be slip resistant and it's best you pick a bolt cutter with long handles. It's because it will help you exact the least amount of force when cutting heavy materials. You can either pick handles made of plastic, steel or aluminium. However, aluminium handles are a bit costly.
The Weight
The weight of the bolt cutter is a very essential factor to consider. An ideal bolt cutter should be lightweight. This way, you will be able to use it with utmost ease and minimal complications. Therefore, before purchasing make sure you check it's weight first.
The Brand
Due to the fact that there are over a hundred bolt cutter manufacturers, the competition is very stiff. You can use this to your advantage. You should pick a bolt cutter from a reputable and known brand. Some good bolt cutter manufacturers are the ones discussed above.
The above are the top ten best bolt cutters in the market. Finding a good bolt cutter isn't hard. But, that doesn't mean that you just rush to the store and buy anything you come across. You should do your research and make an informed decision.
Once you find the ideal bolt cutter that you want, you can order it online or alternatively get it from your nearest hardware store. A bolt cutter is a great tool, however, for you to fully benefit from it, you need to find the best one in the market.

'Makes you feel good:' Marquette nursing students team up with residents of St. Camillus
PALS program
MILWAUKEE -- Committing to a new workout program isn't easy -- but it's easier with some help. Marquette University's College of Nursing is in its second cohort of its PALS program, helping to incorporate specific physical activities for the residents of St. Camillus in Wauwatosa.
For one week, three times a week, Irene Kurtz is working towards her goals.
"Increase the weights, increase the number or repetitions that I do," said Irene Kurtz, PALS participant.
PALS program
PALS program
When she first started the program six weeks ago, she could only do 18 chair stands in one minute. And now...
Kim Gretebeck
"With difficulty, but I can do 25," said Kurtz.
Marquette University students help run the circuit-style program at St. Camillus. The program developed and refined over 15 years to help with everyday tasks.
"Many older adults, they're not physically active and then their physical function goes down -- meaning it's harder to get in and out of a chair, in and out of a car, reach up in cupboards," said Kim Gretebeck, Associate Professor College of Nursing at Marquette.
"Use it or lose it. That's basically the philosophy behind coming here in the first place," said John Arakelian, participant.
PALS program
The "Physical Activity for Life for Seniors" is a 10-week physical activity program. Individuals participate in 60-minute sessions, three days per week, circulating through various exercise stations using equipment such as, steps, hand weights and medicine balls.
Participants also attend a 30-minute group class to learn strategies to stay active once the 10-week exercise class is completed.
"I feel as though I've achieved something even though I'm huffing and puffing, but I have achieved something. It makes you feel good," said Kurtz.

Wayne Elsey's destiny in recycling started in December 2004. Meaning, Wayne watched, with millions of others, the news following the Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami. Markedly, hundreds of thousands of people lost their lives. And what's more, millions of other people had everything they owned washed away. As a result of watching news footage of a single shoe washing ashore, an image haunted Wayne. At the time, he was leading an international shoe manufacturing company. But, that natural disaster was the start of a big change in his life. And, it lead to a new business model in repurposing and recycling.
In time, Wayne ended his career in the shoe industry and founded Soles4Souls. That social enterprise, still in operation, provides shoes to millions in poverty. And, it also helps micro-entrepreneurs in small businesses.
After leaving Soles4Souls, he created the Funds2Orgs Group. Today, it's the leading shoe drive fundraising company in North America. But, being restless and curious, Wayne realized there was more to do. He wanted to help the planet and micro-entrepreneurs in other ways. Meaning, small business owners wanted other things to sell besides shoes. So, Wayne and his team founded Head2Toe Recycling.
Wayne created Head2Toe Recycling to change the recycling industry. And, we use the knowledge and network that has been part of our winning formula. Head2Toe Recycling asks everyone, from retailers, corporations, and individuals to tidy up. We're asking people and communities to get beyond the bins. Help us close the loop and allow others to reuse the stuff you no longer need. We'll take your clothing, shoes, accessories, and cell phones and recycle them for the planet and people.

5 golden rules for fat loss
If you want to get rid of that last bit of body fat that just WILL NOT budge then there's a few things you need to understand. First of all it can be done - it's just tougher. In fact the fat we're talking about is a lot more resilient than fat on other areas of your body. You most likely know the fat I'm talking about. On girls its that fat around the bum, hips and thighs. On guys its those dreaded love handles that we want to shift. First of all here's a VERY basic low down of how fat is burned by the body.
Fat is stored in our body in fat cells and in order for it to be burnt it needs to be released from these cells. We call this process lipolysis. Once released from the cell the fat has to get into another cell in order for fat burning to occur, this process is called oxidation. Something called insulin sensitivity plays a part here. Insulin is a storage hormone meaning it regulates which energy is used by the body and which energy is stored in the body. These stubborn fat cells are MORE insulin sensitive than other fat cells, meaning they store more fat and release less of it for oxidation (fat burning). This fat is kind of 'stuck' in those cells and not as readily burnt for energy as fat in other areas of the body - hence that build up of unwanted fat in those stubborn areas.
One other important point....
You may have heard of this already. When we talk about spot reduction we're talking about targeting fat in a certain area of the body by exercising that particular part of the body directly. A lot of people argue that it is a total myth and does not work. They are kind of correct. Research has shown that although spot reduction does work and is a thing, it happens on such a small scale that it just isn't noticeable or worth pursuing. Imagine wanting to clear a beach of sand and just removing one or two buckets - that's the level we're talking.
BUT don't despair - you can still get rid of that unwanted body fat. You need to be making it harder for the fat cells in your body to cling on to that stored fat. Here's a few things you need to start doing....
1. Calorie Deficit
In order for any type of weight loss to occur you need to be working in a calorie deficit. This means you should be eating LESS calories than you burn each day. Aim for around 25% less calories than your calorie maintenance level. If your maintenance level is 2000 kcal a day then aim to stay under 1500 kcal for example. Use a calorie tracking app like MyFitnessPal to calculate and track your calories and stick at it. It may take a bit of time to gradually reduce your calories if necessary so don't necessarily try and immediately drop them down.
If your goal is to build muscle but you want to reduce your body fat then sadly you have to accept you may lose some size. Your body can't gain weight and lose weight at the same time. What you can do is try and preserve as much muscle as possible whilst stripping that excess fat. Continue resistance training and follow a programme designed around hypertrophy, also try a supplement like HMB which is ideal for preventing muscle tissue breakdown.
2. Weight Train
Far too many people (guys and girls) focus on just wanting to lose weight. This leaves people with that strange 'skinny fat' look where all they've done is burn fat AND muscle through diet and constant cardio. Your goal should be to get lean and build a better body, not just by losing fat but by retaining muscle so that you have some shape to your body. Heavy weight training is a great way to do this and wether you're a guy or a girl, by making your main focus to get strong with some big lifts is a big factor in getting rid of that stubborn fat.
Lifting weights is important but so is cardio, in particular HIIT style cardio. It involves short bursts of maximum intensity exercise followed by short rest periods for multiple rounds. More on HIIT HERE.
Research has shown that 20 minutes of HIIT training burns as much fat as 60 minutes of standard cardio. It also increases the ability and speed at which your body burns fat for up to 24 hours after training. It's also a great way to preserve muscle whilst burning fat so plenty of reasons to get it done!
4. Protein
Make protein a priority in your diet and you're on to a winner. Try and make it the bigger portion of your main meals as much as possible and aim for lean choices like turkey, chicken and fish. Protein keeps you feeling fuller for longer than fat and carbs and actually increases overall energy expenditure in your body. It also helps your muscles recover and repair after those tough weights or HIIT sessions that you're now going to start doing.
How much protein? Aim for around 0.8g - 1.2 grams per pound of bodyweight for optimum results.
5. Supplements
I've left this one to last as I feel it's the least important and least essential. There is no magic pill that will completely get rid of your body fat. BUT some supplements can help the process along slightly when combined with an adequate diet and exercise programme. They are designed to supplement your lifestyle - not become a major factor of it. Based on my own experiences and those of my clients there's a couple that might help you along a little:
Green Tea Extract - it's high in antioxidants and can help boost thermogenesis, this is the process that your body uses to burns calories to digest food and produce heat. Getting enough cups of it to be effective can be tricky though, so one green tea supplement a day packs the equivalent of up to 10 cups of green tea!
Caffeine - can speed up your metabolism which increases the amount of calories you burn. Also a natural stimulant to help your energy levels when doing cardio. It can also give your muscular strength and endurance a boost when training so try a supplement prior to training. You should aim for one that gives you no more than 300mg per day.

Cycling can help cut carbon emissions and reduce traffic congestion, but when narrow roads force cyclists and cars to pass within inches of each other, it can cause tensions to run high and keep some would-be clean commuters in their cars.
Durangoan Todd Wells, a former Olympic cyclist, saw tensions peak a few months ago when a driver swerved in front of a group of cyclists he was riding with on County Road 203 causing the whole group to come skidding to a stop.
The enraged driver jumped out of the truck and started screaming at the group, he said.
While Wells can understand drivers get frustrated by cyclists slowing them down, drivers should also consider how vulnerable cyclists are, he said.
"They tip over, hit their head – they are dead," he said.
Cyclists tend to feel the most unsafe on narrow roads with high speed limits, such as rural highways and some county roads, according to cyclists and transportation experts.
Creating safe lanes for cyclists on highways and other roads and building new bike paths are key steps to encouraging more residents to forgo driving and bike instead, said Spencer Compton, chairman of Durango's Multimodal Advisory Board.
"Ideally, I would like to see a connected network of dedicated bike paths, separated bike lanes and common bike lanes so that cyclists always have a place to ride that is out of the flow of vehicle traffic," he said.
To prepare for new cycling infrastructure, the Colorado Department of Transportation recently mapped the most dangerous stretches of highway for cyclists based on the width of shoulders and volume of traffic, said Ken Brubaker, an engineer with the bicycle and pedestrian section.
Data from Strava, a phone app, showed cyclists tend to avoid highways without shoulders because they are the most stressful, he said.
Knowing where cyclists are using dangerous highways can help the agency prioritize projects for cyclists.
While CDOT has a tight budget, road improvements needed for vehicles could also help improve stretches of highway for cyclists. For example, wider shoulders could improve highway safety for both cyclists and drivers, said Tony Cady, regional planning and environmental manager for the agency.
Some narrow county roads have the same problems as area highways, cyclists said.
For example, a popular cycling loop in the Animas Valley on county roads 203 and 250 (East Animas Road) does not have shoulders and can lead to frustrating congestion for cyclists and drivers, cyclists said.
The county is aware roads need to be widened, but it does not have the funding for that project, said Megan Graham, spokeswoman for the county.
It would cost La Plata County $1.5 million to $2 million per mile to comprehensively address the problems on those county roads, she said.
However, the county does plan to repave a 4-mile section of East Animas Road just north of city limits, she said.
Repavement could help solve part of the problem on the popular loop because cyclists must dodge potholes, said cyclist Tony Hermesman.
Hermesman said in general he avoids highways and other highly trafficked areas in Durango for safety reasons.
"Regardless of whether you are in the right or the wrong, that car is bigger than you," he said.
As a driver, he can get frustrated with cyclists who are not obeying traffic laws.
"Cyclists don't like the drivers, but they are not being courteous," he said.
Longtime highway cyclist David Bowyer, 67, said he has biked from Cortez to Mesa Verde nearly everyday since 1989.
"I have been passed by millions and millions of cars," he said.
Bowyer's preferred route to Mesa Verde is one of the few medium-stress sections of highway for cyclists in Montezuma County.
Still, he stays as far to the right of the lane as he can and listens for the vehicles that have crossed the rumble strip coming behind him, he said.
He has never felt unsafe, but he has bottles thrown at him by drivers, he said.
Bowyer had to take a break from cycling after a blocked artery was discovered in his leg in October, but he plans to start long-distance cycling again soon.
"When you get to the top of Mesa Verde, you feel like King Kong," he said.

LABOUR last night blocked opposition demands for an inquiry into claims of a lack of vital funding for regeneration projects in the poorest parts of Wales.
A political row broke out after the bid was thwarted on the casting vote of Labour chair of the Assembly economic committee Christine Gwyther.
Ms Gwyther also quashed AMs' calls to cross-question local authorities, the Welsh Development Agency and Wales Tourist Board after Economic Minister Andrew Davies repeatedly denied allegations of a lack of government matchfunding to draw down cash from Europe.
Plaid Cymru's Shadow Economic Minister Elin Jones demanded an investigation after she claimed the government failed to identify the £400m of public sector match funding still required for the remainder of the Objective One programme to 2006.
"It is absolutely disgraceful the minister has refused to agree to a proper investigation into projects affecting areas all over Wales because failure to proceed with match funding would result in huge problems for those projects and, not least, the jobs they would have delivered " she said.
She insisted that local authorities were £40m short while the WDA had a shortfall of £20m, placing match funding projects in jeopardy.
The European funds provide only a percentage of the cost of qualifying projects, the rest has to be raised from national sources in the private or public sector.
The Daily Post revealed at the weekend that the National Writers' Centre in Wales, at Toe Newydd, in Gwynedd feared it could close after its refurbishment plans for a £2m package of funding, including European aid, was put at risk when the Assembly government put local match-funding on hold.
Ceredigion AM Ms Jones said: "Andrew Davies' only answer seems to be to trawl for any underspend in fellow ministers' budgets - a ridiculous approach when you know that several of those budgets are already under severe pressure.
"We urge him to approach the Treasury to provide Wales with adequate support for match funding as it always should have done, but never has."
Mr Davies denied opposition claims he would raid other budgets for health and education to find the required funds to draw down the £1.2bn European aid programme.
He said the programme which was half way through was a success story and had resulted in £3bn of investment in west Wales and the Valleys.
Jenny Randerson, Lib-Dem economic development spokesperson, said: "The problems are already beginning to bite. Toe Newydd writers' centre in Gwynedd, has already contacted me to say their £2m funding package is at risk because local authorities have been told to stop providing Local Regeneration Funding."

Lectio Divina
You shall live in the land I gave your ancestors;
you shall be my people, and I will be your God.
Ezekiel 36:28
Continuing Tolstoy, Resurrection. Continuing Priscilla and Aquila with the novice brothers. Looking forward to continuing the pamphlets published by the Franciscan Institute on the Franciscan intellectual tradition.
This morning and afternoon: Accompanied three of my novice brothers on an eight-mile hike up a narrow wooded trail leading from a Boy Scouts camp to the top of a hill overlooking Cachuma Lake. Walking one of the trails of the Grand Canyon was my first hiking experience, but today was the real deal: no tourists, no trash on the ground. The terrain was rocky! The trail also vanished in some places near the peak of the hill. My feet are beat, but not blistered except for one toe. It's my hips, which felt the stress on the way up, and my knees, which felt it on the way down, that will be achy tomorrow. But for now, I feel healthy and proud to have made the hike.
Mild in the morning. Warm and sunny in the afternoon, with the faintest of breezes. Mild in the evening.

It is no easy thing to write a great dissertation as it takes a lot of effort as well as hard work and planning. No matter in which part of the world the students live or study, they must know that it is all to enjoy good marks in their class is a well-researched, well-written and well-edited dissertation that has been composed keeping in mind all the instructions and the guidelines provided by the teachers.
There are many students who write a coursework writing services for the first time and they have no idea how it is done or what it takes. For such students, it is necessary to get to know what a dissertation is all about, what are the steps to writing it and what they should do to ensure that they are able to come up with a great research paper to ensure success in their class as well as their careers as it is only with a top quality and custom paper that students can get their degrees and good jobs when they go out in the professional world.
The first thing in this regard is for students to prepare themselves for writing a dissertation and they must know that studying and researching is very important. Unless they take some time out, read out stuff about what dissertations are, how to write them and what makes them come up with a top quality paper for their class.
Preparing themselves includes not only getting mentally prepared but also getting things done which can aid them in writing a paper. This includes getting hold of the right research material such as books, journals articles and other things which are important and help them organize themselves to writing a paper.
If the students do not have the right material to start writing their papers, they will not be able to get on with their papers. It is because dissertations are all about thorough and extensive research and the students need to make sure that they are using the most genuine resources when writing their papers. Along with resources, proper writing techniques, formatting and editing also play a key role when students are writing their papers.
The students cannot be productive unless they learn and understand what helps them become more productive and produce better results in their assignments and understanding is the key to preparing themselves for writing their papers.
Sitting down to write a dissertation without completing information and resources causes a lot of problem for the students as they have to get up again and again to find that piece of information which is mission. All this can create a lot of trouble for the students and not only wastes the time but also distracts them from their main goal. Unless the students think about everything and collect all the important and relevant information which is critical to writing a dissertation and come up with a paper which helps them secure good marks in their class.

3 Rules for the Best Weight Loss Workout ...
Many of us look for quick weight loss but, unfortunately, that often leads to trying fad diets and eventually gaining a couple of pounds more on top what we already have… We have to admit that extra weight is usually a result of poor eating habits and lack of exercise, and that permanent weight loss is a slow process which involves changing our menu (check out 5 How-To's of Losing Weight and Remaining Sound) and enhancing metabolism through regular exercise.
Exercise also helps burn calories and maintain lean muscles when we are on a diet. With as little as 30 minutes of exercise 3 days a week we can shed off up to a pound of fat a month (which is about 12 pounds of fat a year!) Eat a healthier diet, make sure to learn from weight-loss rights and wrongs (whether your own or someone you know) - and the results will be even more terrific!
What are the best workouts for losing weight? The most efficient approach is to combine weight training with an aerobic-type exercise and stretching:
1. Hit the Gym …
Go to your local gym 3 days a week for a half-an-hour weight training. The best would be to hire a personal trainer, especially if you have not exercised before. Apply the principle of progressive resistance training and try not to lift weight two days in a row, to allow your muscles to rest.
2. Keep moving …
Actively move at least three days a week, preferably at those days when you are not engaged in weight lifting. Depending on your preferences and current degree of fitness, you can choose from the following list of the best weight loss aerobic-type workouts:
- brisk walking - you can walk in a park or even in your favourite mall! ;)
- **jogging**, running, ****walking ;
- **cycling**;
- swimming;
- **aerobics**;
- tennis or badminton; or
- skiing or skating - especially if you live in Canada :) ;

India's L&T wins work on Indira Gandhi Airport, Mumbai Metro
Major awards announced as contracting giant wins cross-sector work across India and in the Middle East
Indian construction and engineering giant Larsen & Toubro (L&T) has been awarded several construction orders across the utilities, real estate, transport, and energy sectors in its home market and across the Middle East, with its Indian contracts covering megaprojects such as Mumbai Metro and Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport, and states such as Gujarat, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, and Tamil Nadu.
In the Middle East, where the firm has been involved in several projects across UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman and Kuwait, L&T has bagged an order for a voltage upgradation project.
Meanwhile, over in the Indian utilities sector, L&T has been awarded two separate engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contracts for the design, construction, installation, automation, testing, commissioning, and operations and maintenance (O&M) of projects in New Delhi and Gujarat.
Additionally, Delhi Aviation Fuel Facility Limited has awarded L&T an EPC contract for a T1 hydrant system, including the installation of 15 km of pipelines with associated hydrant pits and valves for the Indira Gandhi International Airport at New Delhi.
Another L&T contract funded by Japan International Cooperation Agency (Jica) and awarded by Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation, involves the design, procurement, supply, installation, testing, and commissioning of ballastless track on the mainline from Bandra-Kurla Complex station to Cuffe Parade.
The contract pertains to Package 10B – 43TKM for Mumbai Metro Line 3, which connects Colaba, Bandra, and Santacruz Electronics Export Processing Zone.
In India's capital city, L&T's projects include a water treatment plant with a capacity of 104.9 million imperial gallons per day, a 105 million-litre clear water reservoir, and a pump house for the Chandrawal command area of Delhi Jal Board.
The latter contract comes as part of Delhi Jal Board's Delhi Water Supply Improvement project, which is funded by Jica.
In Gujarat, L&T will carry out infrastructure works for roads, drains, culverts, bridges, water supply, sewerage, street lighting, and utility ducts in Rajkot Smart City.
The contractor will also build a residential complex with a total built up area of 46.4ha in Karnataka's capital city of Bengaluru, marking a repeat order from a major developer in India.
Another order includes the constuction of a Tier 3 data centre under five commissioning levels, due to be completed within 16 months, at Sipcot-Siruseri, in Chennai, Tamil Nadu.
L&T will also build a cement manufacturing plant in Andhra Pradesh's Kurnool and an automobile manufacturing facility in Maharashtra's Pune.
L&T Construction's power transmission and distribution business has won an order for the design, engineering, procurement, installation, testing and commissioning of an 80MW solar photovoltaic (PV) power plant in Uttar Pradesh.

Fans Will Not Be Happy About This Male R&B Singer Calling Out Beyoncé, SZA And Cardi B
"Stop using that f**king pain to make it OK to say some bullsh** on your record and get nominated for a Grammy..."
Since the Me Too movement launched at the end of 2017, dozens of high-profile celebrities in Hollywood have been exposed and vilified for rape, sexual assault, and sexual misconduct. While men like Russell Simmons, Kevin Spacey, and others' careers have suffered significantly, R. Kelly, a known alleged abuser, is still making money and prospering despite the numerous allegations brought against him. But a new Twitter hashtag campaign is hoping to change all of that. #MuteRKelly is a social movement reportedly launched to end Kelly's career once and for all.
Oronike Odeleye, the Atlanta-based managing director of the Creative Currents Artist Collaborative, reportedly started the hashtag as a branch of the Me Too movement. Odeleye was reportedly responsible for launching a petition last year in hopes of having Kelly prosecuted for his alleged abuse. "I have been hearing about R. Kelly's sexual abuse of young black women since I was in my teens. Every few years more women come out with their stories. More images and videos surface. More black girls are scarred for life just as they are coming into their womanhood and sexuality," Odeleye told theGrio. "There is a pariah in our community that we all know about, yet we all have continued to stand by and do nothing. We continue to dance to his music in the club, play it at our family reunions, celebrate to it at our weddings."
Although the Odeleye's original petition garnered some attention, she hopes the hashtag will take the movement to the next level. "Someone had to stand up for Black women, and if I wasn't willing to do my part — no matter how small — then I couldn't continue to complain. It's time for us to end this man's career. Enough is beyond enough," she declared.
As previously reported, Kelly has a long history of allegedly abusing Black women. Last year, the Pied Piper was recently accused of holding a number of women against their will in his homes in Chicago and Atlanta. A number of alleged victims and families have come forward on the record to speak about the abuse they've suffered.
Apparently, the #MuteRKelly movement has already had an impact. The hashtag has resulted in the cancellations of eight concerts in Baton Rouge, Dallas, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and Oklahoma City, according to theGrio.
Check out the viral movement below.

Zoo Camp – Summer Education
Zoo camp was an amazing experience yet again! They rounded out the days nicely with animal experiences, crafts, splash pad time, making new friends and learning. They spent time learning! They learned about poaching, conservation or what different animals eat. The shapes of their teeth and why they are suited to different food types, how/which/why animals show aggression and what their habitat would be like in the wild. Like any experience you get out of it what you put in, but if they wanted to listen the information was presented. How do I know they learned this? My little zookeeper told me. On our parents night walk about the zoo he explained things. He looked at the animals and told us their names, some of their ages, and an interesting fact or few about them. He was so proud sharing his knowledge and eager to learn more. He came home with questions each night after he thought about things a little more… "Does a male kangaroo also have a pouch?" curiosity fielded by seeing a baby Joey in pouch at camp. Things we could look up and read about further or go back to camp and ask a keeper. Things to keep his mind questioning, young and inquisitive.
Bedtime stories are back to the animal books his Nanny bought him years ago. Last night he chose the Giraffes book, which he called the "book about Morgan" based on the giraffe named Morgan at the zoo. "Did you know when you call him he comes to you?" – we tried it at parents night and it worked! We weren't even offering juicy vegetation or treats and were behind the safety barrier. You can imagine the smile on the little keepers face at this moment.
Animals are in my son's heart. We attempted to watch Disney's Dumbo years ago, and a few minutes in as the elephant was chained and thrashing he immediately turned it off and cried. It has never been put on again. He loves animals and has their well being in his heart. He isn't a fan of those with outdoor cats in the urban areas as there are so many dangers. He truly cares.


text: Well I was on call today, and I didn't get called in. With the whole family out of town, I hooked up the boat and went out to fish the drains. It was pretty nice this evening, I was the only person on the water and the fish were biting. I caught a limit of reds, a limit of flounder, and two keeper trout. I hooked into many other rat reds and dink trout. I'm sure the water is going to be a lot busier in the morning, it sure was nice having the whole bay to myself pretty much.

The scene goes like this: a grown man with a doctorate, and a grown woman with a masters degree puzzling over a 4th-grade common core homework worksheet. You may have heard this derogatorily termed "new math".
We finally did figure out what it was asking. Once we realized the drills and the purpose, we understood how to help him with his math.
I am still seeing a lot of complaints on social media from his classmate's parents about the common core math, and I think there is a better way. A way to be positive and supportive of the teachers and the curriculum.
Fussing about the curriculum is not helping any of the children, so here are some ways to be positive about common core math.
How to Be Positive about Common Core Math
Understand the WHY Behind the Common Core Math
First of all, this is NOT new math. Common core math doesn't just simply teach math but rather works to give the students' number sense. They haven't made up new math concepts, but our children are getting the why behind the basics.
It is taking out the memorization, and replacing that with the why.
I understand it's controversial, and you may just not agree with it. One search on Google and you realize it's hated. That's your choice. However, don't hate it if you don't understand it. If you do hate it, it still doesn't help your children be successful if they need to do it for their curriculum.
Be a Partner with the Teachers
If you don't understand the math or any subject for that matter, pair up with their teacher. Ask for a meeting with the teacher so they can help you understand some of the concepts. Ask the teacher to spend extra time with your child on homework. Find a resource at the school who can help your child. At one point, last year, my son had a teacher who he just liked from seeing her in the halls and he asked her to help him with writing, so she did every morning before the bell rang. She wasn't even his teacher, and also wasn't even a teacher in his grade! Find a tutor for after school. The tutor could be a high schooler, maybe even a mature middle schooler, or an adult.
The saying it takes a village rings true. It definitely rings true for school. So, build a partnership with the teachers!
There are Plenty of Resources for Common Core Math
If you are familiar with the content, it will be easier to help your child.
If you feel embarrassed about asking for help on the math, don't be. However, you can also find plenty of help online. This will also come in handy if you just need more time on it at home.
YouTube has some excellent videos. Simply go into YouTube, and search for "Common Core Math tutorial" and you'll get an abundance of videos. My son's school uses Eureka, and if you search for that, it has a ton of videos on how to do the problems step by step.
Ask the teacher where to get resources to help you! My son's teacher sends home a YouTube link to every single piece of homework, and it helps you work through all the problems step by step. They are also happy to send home copies of helpful articles, examples, and anything else you need. Teachers want your child to be successful.
You can also find plenty of books available on Amazon, such as the one below "Common Core Connections Math, Grade 4":
Help Your Child in Math with Positive Talk
Help your child break away from the negative self talk. First of all, avoid doing any negative talk about the math in general, the teachers, the curiculum, or your child within earshot of them! They are sponges, and they pick up on negativity!
If your child says they are not good at math, help them redirect it into a positive comment. Instead of "I'm not good at math", say "This math is challenging, but I'm a good problem solver, and I'll figure it out."
Take Away Thoughts on Common Core Math
Any way you cut it, everyone wants what is best for the children. Common core makes sense when you think about the why behind it. Support the teachers, and avoid being negative around your children. Make use of the multiple resources out there to help you as a parent understand the common core method.
It's not just with common core math, either. If you don't understand or even agree with your child's curriculum, you can use these strategies to help your child get through. Remember, just focus on being positive and encouraging. Partner with the teachers. Help your child find other resources for help. Your child will flourish, but they'll need your support.
Let's be as enthusastic as possible, encouraging to our children, and keep our own negativity out of it.

NAPABA and AALDEF Lead AAPI Amicus Brief Opposing Citizenship Question on the Census
WASHINGTON - The National Asian Pacific American Bar Association (NAPABA) and the Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund (AALDEF) filed an amicus brief in the Supreme Court opposing the addition of a proposed citizenship question to the 2020 Census. Sixty-four (64) bar associations and AAPI-serving community organizations joined the brief.
NAPABA President Daniel Sakaguchi said, "The Asian American and Pacific Islander community must be counted in the Census. As an extremely diverse minority community, we rely on accurate data to help protect our rights, secure language access, and ensure political representation. Unfortunately, the record indicates the Census Bureau, in adding the citizenship question, ignored and did not take into account its own findings that the question would depress response rates from immigrant communities and lead to their being undercounted. I am proud of the work of NAPABA and AALDEF on this important brief, and pleased that so many AAPI organizations from around the country joined."
AALDEF Executive Director Margaret Fung said, "Asian Americans are the fastest growing racial group in this country and make up the largest segment of new immigrants. Adding a question concerning citizenship on the decennial census will uniquely harm our community and will undermine the purported reason for adding the question in the first place – more effective enforcement of the Voting Rights Act. We are pleased to work with NAPABA on this brief and to fight with our legal and community partners from around the country on this critical issue."
About the Brief
The AAPI organizations urge the Court to uphold the district court's ruling to enjoin the addition of the citizenship question: "Amici agree with the district court's finding that the addition of a citizenship question will likely lead to an undercount of noncitizen households of at least 5.8 percent. . . . This chilling of participation in the 2020 Census will have a disproportionate effect on the AAPI community. . . . These heightened concerns for the AAPI community come at a crucial moment, because Asian Americans are the fastest-growing racial group in the country and stand to make substantial gains in political representation based on that population growth."
The brief argues that the addition of the proposed citizenship question will have significant negative impacts on the AAPI community. First, the community would be harmed because it is comprised of large numbers of individuals are already hard to count and hesitant to participate. Second, the impact of an undercount would stymie the ability to protect voting rights of AAPIs. Third, the procedural anomalies in the administrative decision-making process do nothing to allay the community's experience with historical misuse of census data—and further undermine the public's trust in the Census Bureau.
On April 23, the Supreme Court will hear an appeal in Department of Commerce v. New York (18-966). In January, the Southern District of New York found that the Administration's decision to add the question was "arbitrary" and "capricious," and that it violated the Administrative Procedure Act. In a related challenge, California v. Ross, the Northern District of California found the Administration violated the Administrative Procedure Act and the Enumeration Clause of the Constitution. A decision is pending in a third challenge, involving AAPI and Hispanic plaintiffs, in the District of Maryland.
The Census Bureau must finalize the census forms in June to be properly prepared to conduct the enumeration in 2020. A citizenship question was last included on the decennial census in 1950, prior to the passage of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 and the removal of country bars dramatically limiting immigration from Asia and the Pacific Islands.
NAPABA and AALDEF's Work
NAPABA and AALDEF have joined AAPI organizations from around the country in opposing the addition of an untested citizenship question. NAPABA submitted public comments opposing the question in August 2018. AALDEF also submitted public comments.
NAPABA is grateful to lead pro bono counsel Albert Giang, 2018 Recipient of the NAPABA Pro Bono Award, NAPABA Amicus Committee Co-Chair, and Partner at Boies Schiller Flexner LLP (BSF) in Los Angeles; Miguel A. Gradilla and Ziwei Hu of BSF; NAPABA Amicus Committee Co-Chair, Radha Pathak of Stris & Maher LLP; Meredith Higashi of the NAPABA Civil Rights Committee; Jerry Vattamala and Patricia Yan of AALDEF; and Navdeep Singh and the NAPABA staff for their joint efforts in this case.

University strikes remain on as UCU rejects proposals
The University and College Union (UCU) has rejected a proposal drawn up at talks with Universities UK to end the university pensions strike.
UCU representatives met with Universities UK on 13 March, amid reports that a deal over plans to end the defined benefit element of the Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS) had been struck.
Sally Hunt, general secretary of the union, said: "Branches made it clear today that they wanted to reject the proposal. UCU's greatest strength is that we are run by and for our members and it is right that members always have the final say."
"The strike action for this week remains on and we will now make detailed preparations for strikes over the assessment and exam period. We want urgent talks with the universities' representatives to try and find a way to get this dispute resolved."
Strikes and action short of a strike remain on, and the union is making detailed preparations for strikes over the assessment and exam period.
A Universities UK spokesperson said: "It is hugely disappointing that students' education will be further disrupted through continued strike action. We have engaged extensively with UCU negotiators to find a mutually acceptable way forward. The jointly developed proposal on the table, agreed at ACAS, addresses the priorities that UCU set out."
"We have listened to the concerns of university staff and offered to increase employer contributions to ensure that all members would receive meaningful defined benefits. We recognised concerns raised about the valuation and have agreed to convene an independent expert valuation group."
"Our hope is that UCU can find a way to continue to engage constructively, in the interests of students and those staff who are keen to return to work."

Driving Too Slow can Cause Accidents Too
Even if you don't know about the law for travelling in the leftmost lane of the freeway, a ticket for breaking that law could cost you big time. Texas law requires slower drivers to move to the right to let faster moving traffic pass on the left.
Law enforcement officers say that many people don't seem to know about this law and so they are starting a public awareness campaign. Part of that campaign to make drivers more aware is to pull over cars that won't move over so that faster moving traffic can pass them safely.
Roxanne Cates said she has always driven in the left lane of traffic, no matter what people did to her on Houston-area roads.
Dpt. Constable Jeff Buchanan said, "You've got many lanes you can ride in. So if somebody is coming up behind and they are going faster than you, just need to move over,"
Assistant District Attorney Warren Diepraam feels that it is this lack of awareness that is behind the increase in the number of incidents involving road rage. "Just anecdotally, by looking at a bunch of incidents of road rage, this is probably one of the top reasons for road rage in our area—is people who clog the left lane," he said .
Officers are mostly issuing warning tickets to those who are pulled over. However, a ticket issued for impeding traffic is considered a Class C Misdemeanor with fines totaling up to $500.
Slow moving vehicles can pose nearly as much of a hazard on roadways and highways as drivers who travel at excessive speeds. In spite of being cautious, driving too slow can actually increase the likelihood of a serious accident. Drivers who do like to go slower can avoid this by following these tips:
- Minimum speed limits are posted on all State and Interstate roadways and should be obeyed.
- When driving at a slower speed than the general flow of traffic, go for the slower, right lanes.
- If the minimum posted speed limit or slower lanes still seem to fast, consider taking side streets that tend to have lower speed limits than freeways, highways and interstates. Also consider having a family member drive instead or opt for public transportation.
- If someone is behind you and signals you by flashing their headlights, chances are they want you to move over to the right so that they can pass you. Signal and let them pass as soon as you are able to do so.
If you or a loved one have been injured in an accident, or have suffered a personal injury, give our offices a call. You could be entitled to compensation for your injuries Our attorneys have years of experience in the Houston area courts in personal injury and accident cases.

Culture Trip stands with
Black Lives Matter
There exists various degrees of work within the city's street art scene, there are the vibrant illustration on the moss laden decaying walls of old mills and buildings, vivid tales sprawled across walls of chawls in some of the city's more congested neighbourhoods, and commissioned work beautifying public spaces in the city such as its railway stations.
Bandra is an accessible street art hotspot in the city. The neighbourhood has mostly been welcoming of street art and so has benefited from the work of artists from around the country. Bandra has even opened up some of its walls to organized street art projects such as The Wall Project, which works to liven public spaces with colour, form and texture. Within the neighbourhood, much of the most iconic works can be found around Chapel Road.
Much like the case in the rest of the country, a good section of Mumbai's street art depicts Bollywood, which isn't surprising considering the cultural influence and power held by the film industry. While some works pay tribute to movies, others idolize stars with larger-than-life depictions. Amitabh Bachchan, or Big B as he is fondly known among fans, is a common sight.
The city itself is one of the most common subjects depicted in various forms. Some look back at the Bombay of the past with the iconic ode to the city's maritime history adorning the walls of Lion Gate in Fort. It is also common to find commentaries on contemporary life – sometimes ridiculing it, sometimes just mirroring its absurdity.

President Donald Trump can no longer shut down his Twitter critics with one click of the "block" button. A federal appeals court ruled Tuesday that Trump's penchant for blocking his Twitter foes officially violates the First Amendment, as his Twitter account—which the president claimed in court was "private"—is an official "digital forum" that must remain open to Trump's allies and critics alike. "The First Amendment does not permit a public official who utilizes a social media account for all manner of official purposes to exclude persons from an otherwise‐open online dialogue because they expressed views with which the official disagrees," Circuit Judge Barrington D. Parker wrote in an opinion for the court.
The appeals court ruling upholds a previous federal district court ruling in favor of the Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University, which brought the lawsuit on behalf of seven Twitter users who were blocked by the president after making anti-Trump comments. ("To be fair you didn't win the WH: Russia won it for you," plaintiff Rebecca Buckwalter tweeted at Trump, prompting her block.) Trump's legal team claimed that the president's Twitter account, which was established in 2009 when Trump was a private citizen, "is exclusively a vehicle for his own speech to which the Individual Plaintiffs have no right of access and to which the First Amendment does not apply." To which Parker replied: "We are not persuaded." The judge pointed out that the president's Twitter account is frequently used for official presidential proclamations, from announcing presidential appointments to going against the Supreme Court on the Census. Former press secretary Sean Spicer even said the president's tweets should be considered "official statements by the President of the United States," while Trump himself has described his use of social media as "MODERN DAY PRESIDENTIAL."
"The fact that any Twitter user can block another account does not mean that the President somehow becomes a private person when he does so," Parker wrote. "Because the President, as we have seen, acts in an official capacity when he tweets, we conclude that he acts in the same capacity when he blocks those who disagree with him."
The Justice Department has not yet determined whether they will appeal the ruling to the Supreme Court; spokeswoman Kelly Laco said in a statement to the New York Times the administration was "disappointed with the court's decision and are exploring possible next steps." The Knight First Amendment Institute, meanwhile, celebrated the court's decision as an important ruling in determining how public officials use social media going forward. "This decision will ensure that people aren't excluded from these forums simply because of their viewpoints, and that public officials aren't insulated from their constituents' criticism," director Jameel Jaffer said in a statement. "The decision will help ensure the integrity and vitality of digital spaces that are increasingly important to our democracy."
Tuesday's ruling marked the latest consideration in the courts of how the First Amendment applies to social media. The Supreme Court's June ruling that the constraints of the First Amendment don't apply to a private nonprofit could have broader implications for social media companies, and the court previously ruled in 2017 that North Carolina cannot bar registered sex offenders from social media. "To foreclose access to social media altogether is to prevent the user from engaging in the legitimate exercise of First Amendment rights," Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote in his opinion for the court in that case. And Trump isn't the only public official whose Twitter blocking habit has been up for legal scrutiny. A federal judge ruled in January that Republican lawmakers in the Wisconsin State Assembly could not block a liberal advocacy group on Twitter, and First Amendment Watch noted in 2018 that similar controversies were taking place in Texas, Colorado, Vermont, Kentucky, Maryland, Virginia, and Maine.

Does anyone know if there is any truth to this? If there is, at what level does it occur?
