Following the publication of a communiqué claiming responsibility for a fire in a garage at a Grenoble police depot (gendarmerie) during the night of September 20th/21st, Indymedia Grenoble and Indymedia Nantes have been threatened by the French police. The administrators of these sites received emails from the Central Office for the Fight Against Crime Linked to Information Technology and Communication (OCLCTIC) demanding that the concerned articles be removed from the sites in under 24 hours, otherwise rendering the sites liable to blocking and dereferencing.
The communiqué?s authors explained that the garage fire had been carried out as "part of a wave of attacks in solidarity with people currently under trial" such as the Quai de Valmy police car arson. In this Grenoble arson attack, several dozen police vehicles were burned (torched).
Here is the communiqué itself:
Incendiary Solidarity
This Thursday, at three in the morning, second day of the blazing car trial.
We penetrated the police barracks at Vigny-Musset. Set fire to six intervention vans and two logistics trucks. Over 1,500 square meters of the garage and the depot were ravaged.
This act is part of a wave of attacks in solidarity with people currently under trial.
Big hugs to Kara and Krem.
Thoughts are with Damien, recently beaten up by the cops.
Whatever the trial?s outcome, we?ll keep lashing out at the police and the justice system.
Our hostility is a spreading blaze.
This communiqué was also published by mainstream media outlets such as Le Dauphiné Libéré and BFM-TV, who, apparently, remained unconcerned...
"Provocation leading to acts of terrorism"
As the team at Indymedia Grenoble has pointed out in a communiqué, "this request (...) directly echoes the attack which took place in Germany on the 25th of August against Indymedia Linksunten, an attack which resulted in the police raid of four households and a self-administered social service center, citing similar pretexts." In both cases, the notion of 'terrorism' has been exploited by governments for the censorship of free media outlets. This is especially the case since the French police has based their decisions on the law of November 13th, 2014, which reinforces measures relative to the fight against terrorism, and evokes a "provocation leading to acts of terrorism or apology for such acts".
Although the notions of terrorism and provocation are not defined, since February 2015 French law has been allowing the disappearing of sites or of texts without due process, based upon a simple request by police administration. To our knowledge, it?s the first time that these measures are being wielded against alternative media outlets belonging to anti-authoritarian circles. Both sites targeted by the authorities? threats decided to take down the incriminated responsibility claim. The moderating collectives of each of the two sites explain themselves in two distinct texts:
- Following Indymedia Linksunten, Indymedia Grenoble and Nantes (Indymedia Grenoble)
- Police Depot Ablaze, What's left of Internet Freedom? (Indymedia Nantes)
The use of anti-terrorism laws to specifically attack independent information sites hearkens back to the violence of the sentencing against the people accused in the Quai Valmy Car Arson Affair. It aims to dissuade activists just as much as it does to depoliticize acts.
For years, the sites in the Indymedia network have, among other things, lent visibility to the political nature of direct action. This new attack against free media outlets seeks to silence radical political opposition, and to criminalize the collectives and individuals who would communicate their political objectives without the distorting filter of traditional media outlets. This attack must also be viewed in light of the raids that, this week, targeted the anti-nuclear activists at Bure. Their computers, along with the photocopier that they had been using to print flyers were seized by the police. All means seem to have been mobilized to repress the autonomous expression of movements of struggle.
As we said in May 2015, following pursuits targeting the Toulousan site IAATA.info, "Against repression, information is a weapon." Despite the new forms of censorship being deployed, we will continue to facilitate and multiply spaces of autonomous expression. Support for Indy Nantes and Indy Grenoble. Solidarity with the accused from the Quai de Valmy Trial, and with those who throw a wrench in the works of the repressive machine.

Linksunten.indymedia.org, the main independent media website in Germany, was banned by the German government's Ministry of Interior on August 25. Maintaining the website and using its logo are now considered criminal offenses in the country. Linksunten volunteers are being prosecuted as a "club," which means that administrators are considered responsible for everything that has been published. Administrators are also being accused of being members of a terrorist association. Coordination des Groupes Anarchistes writes: This represents a new step in the repression of our activities and ideas in Europe. The last time something of this significance occurred was in 1995, when the German central power banned the newspaper "Radikal", which sparked many demonstrations all over the country, especially in Hamburg. In France, even though some music bands and anti-authoritarian information websites have been threatened for their lyrics or articles, we have never experienced such brutal repression against our means of expression and communication. This attack against a radical and anti-authoritarian information platform should remind us of the need to pay special attention to the defense of our means of communication in front of State repression.

On August 25, the German government raided and shut down Linksunten Indymedia, an integral part of the global Independent Media Center network, and the most widely used German-language platform for radical politics and organizing. In Freiburg, riot police seized computers and harassed those they accuse of maintaining the site, justifying their actions on the grounds that the alleged administrators constitute an illegal organization intent on destroying the German Constitution. This represents a massive escalation in state repression against what the authorities call ?left-wing extremism,? disingenuously suggesting an equivalence between those who seek to build communities beyond the reach of state violence and Neo-Nazis organizing to carry out attacks and murders. In the last couple of years, more and more attention has accumulated around Linksunten Indymedia, which offers a space for people to post anonymously. Before the 2017 G20 summit took place in Hamburg, the corporate media was already focusing on the site, declaring it to be the coordination page of militant anti-G20 protestors. The far-right nationalist party Alternative for Germany (Alternative für Deutschland, or AfD) started a campaign against the platform, pushing inquiries about Indymedia in Federal parliament and trying to force local governments to ban the platform and other forms of radical infrastructure. The heavy-handed approach of shutting down the website and raiding alleged administrators shows how afraid the authorities are that radical ideas are spreading and becoming contagious following the successful demonstrations against the G20 summit in July. German Federal Minister of the Interior Thomas de Maizière made it clear enough in his press conference that the assault on Indymedia is a form of revenge for the embarrassment the state suffered during the summit. It also shows how dishonest far-right and statist rhetoric is about free speech ? in fact, these hypocrites only use that discourse to position themselves to suppress others? speech. In response, Linksunten Indymedia released a statement the next day on their banned website declaring, ?We will be back soon.? It shows that the media activists still have control over their website, and could be the beginning of a huge Streisand effect. Solidarity demonstrations are taking place across Germany.

Indonesian police have opened fire on peaceful protesters in Jayapura, with at least four gunshot wounds and one death. West Papuan activists and families have been forced to flee to the jungle for safety. Indonesian security forces are conducting scores of raids, sweeps and offensives against West Papuan civilians. The attacks are happening during the visit of National Police Chief General Sutarman with over 200 people arrested across West Papua. Journalists have also been attacked by Indonesian police according to Amnesty International...Read more at San Fransisco Bay Area Indymedia. The Indonesian Police chief says any plans to free Papua from Indonesia won't be tolerated, including Flag raising ceremonies on the West Papuan national Day, December 1st.
Calls for Independence by West Papuans have been made since the sham "Act of Free Choice in 1969". They have suffered a neglected genocide at the hands of the Indonesian military (2004) with continued Repression (2007). Thousands of Papuans took to the streets in 2010 and in 2011 rejecting special autonomy, demanding a referendum on independence. Indonesia plans to build 1,500 km of new roads in the next two years to accelerate ?development', increase military presence, and open up more illegal logging. Three Papuans highlighted the human rights abuses at the APEC meeting in Bali this year by scaling the Australian Consulate?s fence in the dead of night and hand-delivering a personal plea to open the Indonesian province to world scrutiny.
A new academic law and human rights report A slow-motion genocide: Indonesian rule in West Papua (PDF), details the extent of the genocide and abuse of human rights. (Review by Greenleft) Activists have called for Australia to End pragmatic complicity in West Papua in response to comments by new conservative Prime Minister Tony Abbott. Imprisoned Papuan leader Selpius Bobii also responded saying, "We Live In Terror, Mr Abbott".

Civil society organisations abandoned the COP19 climate change negotiations in Warsaw on mass. Members from Greenpeace, Oxfam, WWF, Actionaid, Friends of the Earth, the International Trade Union Confederation (statement) and 350.org all started leaving the conference at 2pm. This is an unprecedented action, the first time several major civil society groups have staged a mass walkout.
Friends of the Earth International highlighted that the Warsaw Climate Change negotiations were failing, with Tension high in Warsaw talks as G77+China walk out. The role of Australia and reduced ambition of Japan have been widely mentioned. Australia and Canada are seen as the major wreckers, but there has been substantial intransigence from much of the developed world to progressing the negotiations forward on finance, ambition, and a loss and damage mechanism. Poland's Coal Summit has shown the fossil fuel corporatism entwined in this COP with widespread dismay at the coal powered negotiations of COP19 and at UNFCCC official Christiania Figueres who gave the keynote speech at the coal summit

Climate Summit in Warsaw | "Polluters Talk, We Walk": Civil Society Groups Abandon Warsaw Talks over Inaction on Global Warming | "We Have to Consume Less": Scientists Call For Radical Economic Overhaul to Avert Climate CrisisAnalysis: The Warsaw walkout and the Climate Movement
Magda Stoczkiewicz, director of Friends of the Earth Europe commented: "Big polluters were welcomed with open arms and the negotiations are driven by corporate interests. There is no room for people or planet. The Polish presidency's short-sighted coal-driven policy marks these talks out as one of the dirtiest yet."
International Trade Union Confederation joins the protest
Sharan Burrow, General Secretary, ITUC, released a statement saying that at a time when climate science was warning of devastating impacts, democratic leaders have failed us in these negotiations. The ITUC observers walked in protest with the other NGOs.?We have been shocked by some of the wealthiest nations including Canada and Australia showing a lack of responsibility for ambitious targets and with almost all developed nations failing to commit vital finance and even questioning the need for ?just transition? measures for the world?s workers and their families.
?Trade unions remain optimistic on the capacity of social dialogue to ensure that Japan returns to the negotiations next year in Lima, Peru, with renewed ambition and leadership.
?The corporate dominance which is on show here is unacceptable. It is the same companies that advocate environmental and social responsibility that exploit workers and the environment through their supply chains.
?The ITUC will now mobilise workers around the world to ensure that democratic governments are held accountable for jobs, rights and the vital investment in transformational technologies in all sectors to ensure full employment and decent work,? said Sharan Burrow.
Offical statement
Enough is enough.
We have said we stand in solidarity with the millions impacted by Typhoon Haiyan, and with all climate impacted people. Our solidarity compels us to tell the truth about COP 19 ? the Warsaw Climate Conference.
The Warsaw Climate Conference, which should have been an important step in the just transition to a sustainable future, is on track to deliver virtually nothing. In fact, the actions of many rich countries here in Warsaw are directly undermining the UNFCCC itself, which is an important multilateral process that must succeed if we are to fix the global climate crisis.
The Warsaw Conference has put the interests of dirty energy industries over that of global citizens - with a ?Coal & Climate Summit? being held in conjunction; corporate sponsorship from big polluters plastered all over the venue; and a Presidency (Poland) that is beholden to the coal and fracking industry. When Japan announced that it was following Canada and backtracking on emission cut commitments previously made, and Australia gave multiple signals that it was utterly unwilling to take the UN climate process seriously, the integrity of the talks was further jeopardized.
This week saw a ?finance ministerial? with almost no actual finance, and loss and damage talks that have stalled because rich countries refuse to engage on the substance of an international mechanism. Warsaw has not seen any increase in emission reductions nor increased support for adaptation before 2020 ? on these things it has actually taken us backward. And a clear pathway to a comprehensive and fair agreement in Paris 2015 is missing.
We as civil society are ready to engage with ministers and delegations who actually come to negotiate in good faith. But at the Warsaw Conference, rich country governments have come with nothing to offer. Many developing country governments are also struggling and failing to stand up for the needs and rights of their people. It is clear that if countries continue acting in this way, the next two days of negotiations will not deliver the climate action the world so desperately needs.
Therefore, organizations and movements representing people from every corner of the Earth have decided that the best use of our time is to voluntarily withdraw from the Warsaw climate talks. Instead, we are now focusing on mobilizing people to push our governments to take leadership for serious climate action. We will work to transform our food and energy systems at a national and global level and rebuild a broken economic system to create a sustainable and low-carbon economy with decent jobs and livelihoods for all. And we will put pressure on everyone to do more to realize this vision.
Coming out of the Warsaw Climate Conference, it is clear that without such pressure, our governments cannot be trusted to do what the world needs. We will return with the voice of the people in Lima to hold our governments accountable to the vision of a sustainable and just future.

Current Status of COP19 Negotiations
In a media briefing in Warsaw by Climate Action Network International on Thursday 21 November 2013, Liz Gallagher from E3G.org gave an update on negotiations in the Adhoc working Group on the Durban Platform (ADP), which is the main negotiating track."So yesterday in the ADP we had a new text out. The text has been changed in both substance and structure, and the substance has been somewhat weakened and that is what I'm here to talk about.
In particular I want to talk about the 2014 deadline. NGOs from CAN are pushing very hard to have the 2014 as the deadline when countries should develop their offers and it is still not strong enough in the text. This is primarily because it is being used as leaverage by other countries which want to get more progress on finance.
I also want to explain why 2015 is so important. For those of you unfortunate to remember Copenhagen you will remember what happened in the final few days in the Bella Centre. I think we want to learn the lessons from Copenhagen. A few months before Copenhagen countries came out with their offers. and so there was very little time to do any discussion or preparatory work on what those offers meant. Many thought these offers weren't final, they thought that countries could go further and faster. That was not the case.
Because we had very little time to discuss these offers in the run up to Copenhagen, we didn't really understand what they meant for economic reform, for economic transformation to decarbonize.
Just talking about targets is not enough. We need to really get to grips with what these targets mean for the real economy. What they mean for our energy systems, what they mean for our transportation systems. If we don't have an understanding of that, we won't be able to know where the flexibility is, to increase ambition. But also where sunergies can be made between countries and how you can enhance ambition that way. Understanding and empathising with countries positioning and really understanding from where they are coming from and what they can do in their real economy is going to be key to success in 2015. It is key to successful climate diplomacy strategy to know what the other country can do, where it's flexibility is and what you have to do to enhance that.
I really want to make that clear that this is why we are pushing for 2015, well in advance of the 2015 final deadline because 2014 is going to be critical in order to have a successful agreement in Paris.
The second thing I want to talk to you about is finance. For those of you who were watching the screens yesterday you will see that some good news announced. We had a series of announcements over the past week, but in particular yesterday from the UK, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Germany and Japan.
Generally there was more money on the table for adaptation and some promises to put money into the GCF when it is fully operationalized. While this was good news, I would argue that we can't continue like this. Annual pledging is far from ideal. Organisations such as the World Bank have ten year replenishment meetings whereby countries come forward and put in for the next ten years. This idea about guarantee and predictability re finance is really really important if countries are able to plan and prepare projects on the ground.
In 2009 Hilary Clinton came to Copenhagen and talked about promising $100 billion of climate finance by 2020. Four years on we are still waiting. There is quite a lot of concern amoung civil society that this will be used as a bargaining chip in the final negotiations.
In particular, the US, Australia and Japan are being quite problematic in trying to develop this idea about guaranteeing and predictability of finance of $100 billion and we feel that others - developed countries - are in the comfort zone and quite happy to have a lack of clarity on how they will meet the $100 billion.
So we really need a roadmap to getting the $100 billion and we need more progess on the 2015 timelines. If we don't have progress on the roadmap to $100 billion we really are jeopardising the Paris agreement cause it is key to securing a more ambitious outcome."
There were several media questions. One of note came from a Canadian Media Co-op reporter who asked: What is the status that makes 2015 not another Copenhagen?
Liz Gallagher responded:"There is a series of things that need to come out of here which will give confidence to the 2015 agreement. One of those is this deadline and this idea that 2014 is the moment. We have the Ban Ki Moon summit, we have the whole range of different meetings, we have the Bonn ministerial. This is the time when countries need to be coming up with their offers.
Obviously finance which I have just outlined is a key to unlocking the progress on the 2015 outcome because many countries are using the 2015 progess as a leaverage point in order to get more finance.
The other issue is pre-2020 ambition. This is ambition before the 2015 agreement comes into force and the discussions there are pretty fragmented. Some countries think it should just be around the Kyoto Protocal parties, the Kyoto Protocol parties want it to be all countries that enhance their ambition. There is a whole kind of range of different issues, and there is the issue about HFCs. It is quite a fragmented process at the moment and it is still not exactly clear how it is going to play out.
Those three elements, the pre-2020 ambition, the finance, and then the overalll 2020 agreement are all... there is going to have to be balance between them as everyone is playing them off against each other."

The weekend of 16th and 17th November saw tens of thousands of people in Canada and Australia out in the streets in over 260 protests against the climate policies of these countries. Australia and Canada are seen as the major wreckers in Warsaw at COP19.
The Saturday protests in Canada occurred from coast to coast to Repulse Bay, Nunavut on the Arctic circle, more than 10,000 people gathered in over 180 events co-ordinated by Defend our Climate. Many protests focussed on stopping further expansion of the Alberta tar sands and pipelines to move the bitumenous oil south to Texas, east through Ontario and Quebec, and west through British Columbia. On Sunday, more than 60,000 people attended climate protests across Australia, protesting the attempt to repeal carbon pricing and clean energy programs by the conservative Government lead by Prime Minister Tony Abbott, elected on 7 September this year, who denied any link between climate change and bushfires as unusually early and intense bushfires raged around Sydney.
Civil Society NGO and local Polish activists also staged a Climate Justice march in Warsaw in association with the COP19 climate change negotiations taking place. Super Typhoon Haiyan set the initial mood at the negotiations with Philippines negotiator Naderev Saño (Yeb Saño) saying "time to take action. We need an emergency climate pathway". There is widespread dismay at the coal powered negotiations in Warsaw with Japan and Australia being particularly singled out.

On November 8 Super Typhoon Haiyan made landfall over Guiuan, Eastern Sama province in the Philippines, destroying coastal communities with ferocious winds and a storm surge of 6-7 metres (up to 20 feet). According to Dr Jeff Masters "Haiyan had winds of 190 - 195 mph (315 km/h) at landfall, making it the strongest tropical cyclone on record to make landfall in world history."
Authorities of Tacloban City with a population of 220,000 and capital of Leyte province, gave an early estimate that perhaps 10,000 people died from this one city. Many people were surprised by the huge storm surge tidal waves that inundated much of the city. Many smaller coastal villages were also devastated with most buildings destroyed or suffering severe damage. According to the UN Reliefweb report on 14 November the number of affected people has increased to 11.8 million. The official death count from Typhoon Haiyan is currently 4,460 but with numbers still increasing. There were 921,200 people displaced and 243,600 houses destroyed. A total of 2.5 million people are in need of food assistance.

In areas most severely damaged, Health infrastructure and medical services are severely damaged and medical supplies are low. According to health authorities, the population is at increased risk of tetanus as well as outbreaks of acute respiratory infections, measles, leptospirosis and typhoid fever. Water systems are damaged in many areas and 239 municipalities do not have electricity as of 13 November.
Trucks and fuel are urgently needed to deliver aid. Delivery of Aid packages and humanitarian assistance is severely hampered by debris on roads and congestion at Manila and Tacloban airports causing delays. There is minimal infrastructure in Tacloban to receive, store and handle goods. Restoration of the telecom networks has been slow due to the large volume of debris.
Impassioned plea for climate action from Philippines Diplomat
The Philippines lead climate negotiator, Naderev Saño (Yeb Saño), made an impassioned plea at the Warsaw UNFCCC climate conference in the opening plenary on Monday that it was "time to take action. We need an emergency climate pathway". Attendees rose and applauded his speech. Subsequently Yeb Saño has declared a hunger strike until progress is made on climate action is made at the conference and launched an online petition. His fast has been joined by 50 other conference delegates and civil society youth representatives. Filipino academic and global south activist Walden Bello said it was Time for turning tears into anger. The use of a non-sanctioned banner resulted in 3 youth observers being ejected and banned for 5 years from UNFCCC conferences.
Significantly, last year typhoon Bopha hit the Philippines bringing death and destruction. Naderev Saño said at COP18:
"I appeal to leaders from all over the world, to open our eyes to the stark reality that we face. I appeal to ministers. The outcome of our work is not about what our political masters want. It is about what is demanded of us by 7 billion people."
He finished his short speech "I ask of all of us here, if not us, then who? If not now, then when? If not here, then where?"
The link between Typhoon Haiyan and Climate change
There is substantial media speculation over typhoon Haiyan link to climate change, as for example in the Guardian and Sydney Morning Herald reports.
Many climate activists already connect the dots between climate change and more intense storms because of the unusually warm sea surface and sub-surface water temperatures. Indeed, NOAA measured record global sea surface temperatures in August 2013. The world's oceans are warming with Parts of Pacific Warming 15 Times Faster Than in Past 10,000 Years. Scientists have also revealed that Recent warming of the Greenland Sea Deep Water is about ten times higher than warming rates estimated for the global ocean.
Philippines activists in Aksyon Klima Pilipinas, a network of 40 civil society organizations in the Philippines working on climate action in the international, national, and local levels, released a statement on November 11 demanding action on climate finance, loss and damage in Warsaw climate talks. Many people in the Philippines like Rodne Galicha are calling Typhoon Haiyan a climate crime.
The Philippines Labor Party, (Partido ng Manggagawa) released a statement welcoming international aid and solidarity work but demanding more:"We want climate justice. Capitalist countries must be held accountable for climate crisis. They must be forced to pay the climate debt they owe to poor nations. Capitalist countries, we emphasize, were responsible for climate crisis. They emit more carbon to the atmosphere many times over what the poor countries do. It is the greenhouse gases emitted from capitalist industries which drove global temperature to rise to new levels. This causes climactic reactions like warmer and rising sea levels and which eventually lead to the formation of monster typhoons as in the case of Haiyan."

Climate Negotiations are over for another year with little progress in Doha by any one's measure as the scientific statements on climate change and the impacts we are already feeling as evidenced in record Arctic melting, and extreme weather events like Hurricane Sandy and Typhoon Bopha in the Philippines, and Cyclone Evan in the South Pacific are growing much stronger.
Some of the latest scientific research shows:

We are hurtling along, actually accelerating our emissions, heading for a climate cliff towards a chaotic and dangerous future (See Guy McPherson on the end of the world) and negotiators think we can put on the brakes at the last minute. Unfortunately what action the global community takes using an agreement negotiated by 2015 to come into effect by 2020 will be far too little too late. Climate physics will trump all the hot air in climate policy negotiations.
It is the failure of leadership and ambition of industrialised countries like the United States, Canada and Australia in making the deep cuts to emissions necessary which is hampering and sometimes actively obstructing progress. The Bali roadmap in 2007 adopted the scientific projections of 25 to 40 percent emission cuts by industrialised countries on 1990 levels by 2020 for a 50 percent chance of not exceeding 2 degrees of warming.
"It is vitally important to remember that the dangerous experiment we are performing on the climate system through our emissions of greenhouse gases continues unabated, with global emissions still growing at an alarming pace. The climate system will not wait decades for the governments of the world to inch towards an agreement. This trend needs to be reversed quickly. The outcome of the Doha talks is therefore extremely disappointing, if not unexpected." commented Professor Sir Brian Hoskins, Director of the Grantham Institute for Climate Change at Imperial College London.
Sharan Burrow, General Secretary of the International Trade Union Confederation, ITUC, said "We leave this conference wondering when ambition will come back to the table. There will be no jobs in a dead planet, nor a Just Transition with this outcome" said Ms Burrow. "The more we wait for having ambitious emission reduction objectives, the more the transition will be unfair. We need time to build a Just Transition, to put in place the social policies to help working people fully participate in a sustainable economy. Delays will make our task difficult, almost impossible. In order to be Just, the transition must start now, " said Ms Burrow.
Civil society NGOs condemn lack of progress at climate talks
Leaders of Civil Society groups gathered just after the conclusion of the final plenary at Doha and made clear that it is still business as usual with little progress in negotiating emission reductions. Although nominally the Kyoto Protocol will continue until 2020, it is a shadow of itself and the first commitment period with Russia, Japan, Canada and New Zealand all withdrawing.

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — Fans opened their hearts and handed over toys for children in need at the Rams-Falcons game Sunday.
It is the CHiPs for Kids toy drive and Linda Mathis was one of the first to stop by.
"What really hit me was that little boy who died."

Mathis is referring to Luis Sanchez, the five-year-old killed when a suspected drunk driver smashed through his south L.A home. He was writing his letter to Santa at the time.

To add to the pressure on the banks, tech giants like Apple, Facebook and now Google have been making inroads into finance. Apple earlier this year launched a credit card, piggybacking off an account provided by Goldman Sachs, while Facebook announced its libra cryptocurrency initiative and Google is set to debut a checking account next year.
From 2006 to 2018, income inequality has risen continuously both nationwide and in all states (but not in the District of Columbia). Annual changes vary widely for state income inequality, with some states experiencing increases year after year, and others displaying more volatile trends consisting of both sharp annual decreases and increases.
This map shows the real value of $100 in each state. You can also see the real value of $100 in your metro area. Prices for the same goods are often much cheaper in the more rural areas of states like Missouri or Ohio than they are around large cities in states like New York or California. As a result, the same amount of cash can buy you comparatively more in a low-price state than in a high-price state.
There are approximately 618,000 "millennial millionaires" -- those with a net worth of over $1 million -- in the United States, according to a 2019 report from Coldwell Banker Global Luxury and WealthEngine, which defines millennials as those born between 1982 and 1996, or ages 23 to 37 in 2019.
Seattle-based engineer Paige Thompson was arrested Monday for allegedly hacking into Capital One's databases and gaining access to approximately 140,000 Social Security numbers and 80,000 bank account numbers. Capital One disclosed the massive breach in a press release Monday afternoon, noting that about 100 million people in the U.S. and 6 million people in Canada were affected in total. It's one of the largest breaches of a major financial service.
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin on Monday said the U.S. has "very serious concerns" about Facebook's plans to launch a new cryptocurrency, adding multiple agencies are worried the new currency could be used to finance terrorism or aid money-laundering schemes.
In an analysis of 702 occupations, researchers from Oxford University came to a distressing conclusion. A full 47 percent of all occupations in the US are likely to become automated, and that's only over the next few decades.
The dollar's baby sibling, the all-but-worthless cent, is logically represented by a lowercase 'c' with a line through it, but there's no 'D' in the dollar sign. If you had to find letters lurking in its form, you might spy an 'S' overlain with a squeezed, bend-less 'U' providing its vertical strokes. In fact, this accounts for one of the most popular misconceptions about the sign's origins: it stands for United States, right?
Millennials have a much lower net worth than previous generations, according to a new study. The average net worth of Americans between the ages of 18 to 35 is less than $8,000 -- about 34 percent lower than in 1996, a Deloitte study published Wednesday found. Despite clichés that millennials are "ruining everything from movies to marriage," the study found millennials are actually under more economic pressure because of numerous increased costs over the last decade.
Prepare your calculators. The Internal Revenue Service has updated its tax brackets for 2019. This year marks the first under the new Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, an overhaul of the tax code that resulted in lower individual income tax rates, a doubled standard deduction and the elimination of personal exemptions. For the new year, the IRS has bumped up the individual income tax brackets, adjusting them for inflation.

Are You Calling Me a Dog?
The project 'Are You Calling Me A Dog?' reimagines the history of the Mau Mau resistance in Kenya. In 1963 Kenya achieved independence after a long struggle for liberation that involved men and women mostly from the Kikuyu ethnicity or Nation. Nearly sixty years later, no real liberation occurred and the heroes of that time are now slowly disappearing. A great part of the colonial settlers stayed and integrated the society and the men and women who fabricated the Mau-Mau liberation fight have been forgotten by the new generations.

Junior Jack & Kid Crème at Neerpelt Open Air festival, Belgium
Sun 31.08.2008
It's day two of the Neerpelt Open Air (NOA) festival and DJsounds is in the dance area, checking out the house of Junior Jack & Kid Crème (aka Vito Lucente and Nicolas Scaravilli) – so click on now to find out more… In this clip the DJ partners and super-producers reveal more about the score, covering everything from their inspirations and influences to their best and worst gigs. The bass-loving Belgium-based duo (both with Italian roots) first joined up in the early 00s to conquer the house music scene. And between them they've released an In the House compilation for Defected, won Ibiza DJ Awards and remixed the likes of Kylie Minogue, Moby, Shakedown, and Bodyrockers. So what's next? Well, aside from more bassline-driven studio smashes and live DJ gigs, there's apparently another artist album in the pipeline from JJ to follow on from his hugely popular debut, Trust It.

The INSIDER Summary:
• "Coco" is Pixar's only original film for the next three years.
• It's about a young Mexican boy who wants to be a musician and enters the underworld.
• The movie has an all-Latino voice cast.
Pixar has been teasing "Coco" for about six years now. But until today, the details have been kept tightly under wraps. All we knew was that it was going to be an original film, and that it's about the Mexican holiday of Día de los Muertos, or "Day of the Dead."
Disney just released new details about the film, which is due to be released on November 22, 2017. Here's what we can expect.
It's directed by Lee Unkrich, whose first solo film was "Toy Story 3."
Unkrich has been working on Pixar movies ever since "Toy Story." He received co-directing credits on "Toy Story 2," Monsters, Inc." and "Finding Nemo." The third entry in Pixar's signature series was a risk — no one was quite sure how a "Toy Story" sequel would turn out ten years after the previous one, and with a first-time solo director — but he proved his chops. Since then, he's been working on "Coco."
Out of Pixar's next four movies, "Coco" is the only one that isn't a sequel.
The studio's next film is "Cars 3" on June 16, 2017, then "Coco" on November 22, 2017. Following that, we're getting "Incredibles 2" and "Toy Story 4." In 2020, Pixar plans to finally release two more original films, but they're still untitled.
Lee Unkrich/Twitter
Miguel and his grandma.
The movie is about a young boy who wants to be a musician, and enters the underworld.
It focuses on Miguel Rivera (voiced by newcomer Anthony Gonzalez), who lives in a Mexican village and wants to be a musician.
The problem is, his family has banned music forever, because they think they're cursed by it. According to their family history, Miguel's great-grandfather abandoned his wife to become a musician. The tragedy led her to "declare music dead to the family forever," according to the plot summary provided to Entertainment Weekly.
Miguel ends up entering the land of the dead in search of a famous singer who inspired him (voiced by Benjamin Bratt), and enlists the help of a trickster skeletal spirit named Hector (voiced by Gael García Bernal).
"Coco" will have an all-Latino voice cast.
Early on, Disney tried to trademark the phrase "Día de los Muertos," which led to swift and harsh backlash from the Latino community. The filmmakers are being more careful.
"It was important to us from day one that we had an all-Latino cast," Unkrich told Entertainment Weekly. "It focused us, and we ended up with a fantastic mix of people — some from Mexico and some from Los Angeles."
Unkrich also did his research to make sure the film would represent its character accurately.
"I'll be the first to say that going on a few research trips doesn't make us experts in anything," he told Vanity Fair. "But it would have been wrong for us not to go down. I knew from Day One, when John Lasseter gave the ok, that we had an enormous responsibility to tell this story right and to not lapse into cliché or stereotype."
The talent pool is deep. Bernal has broken out as a major actors in recent years, with critically acclaimed starring turns in "Mozart in the Jungle," "No," and "Neruda." Benjamin Bratton is a mainstay in American television. Anthony Gonzalez, however was hired after impressing Unkrich while recording temporary vocal tracks during the movie's production.
"We actually had another kid doing scratch for Miguel who's now 17 or 18," Unkrich told Entertainment Weekly. "Which should tell you how long we've been working on the movie, but his voice changed long ago, and it was actually in trying to find a new voice for the scratch that we found Anthony."

Drunk Man Steals Soviet Era Tank And Drives It Through Neighborhood
It's not too often you look out your window and see a gigantic T-55 tank rolling down the street of your neighborhood.
But that's exactly what happened in the small Polish town of Pajeczno.
A 49-year-old man got drunk, and decided to swipe the Soviet era tank from wherever it belonged, and drive it through a nearby neighborhood.
An image showing police attending to the scene when a drunk man was found driving a Soviet tank through the streets of a small Polish town https://t.co/GxlnjmByUX pic.twitter.com/HS86f39HUp— Notes from Poland ---- (@notesfrompoland) June 14, 2019
Luckily, the man didn't do any damage to homes or cars, and it turns out, he was authorized to drive the tank. His superiors, however, probably didn't expect him to take it out for a joyride.
The drunk tank-driver faces up to two years in prison for driving under the influence, and up to eight years for "creating a dangerous situation."

Cheap Tires In Michigan
White Brick School
Bristol , Indiana. Some things just have a way of working out. I was making good time driving back from Michigan when I was detoured off the main highway, in Elkhart, Indiana. The detour was not marked all that well or i was doing to much sightseeing, but a few miles into being misplaced, I saw the school ahead. With a guy coming out of a woodworking shop toward the road I pulled in to ask directions and see what I could find out about the school.
Chuck and Nancy Tubbs, were perfect hosts ,showing me around the school and even extending an invitation to come in and look around. The history of the school follows and also posted a set of photos of the school with an interior shot of it. The way they have restored it, makes for a distinctive home and larger than one might think.
. 1878 One Room Schoolhouse
Chuck and Nancy Tubbs moved into a one room schoolhouse in Bristol, Indiana in October. The school was built in 1878 and was called White Brick School because it was built out of a very light color brick. About 9 to 12 students a year went to school there until 1929, when it was closed.
Actually it doesn't have just one room anymore. There is now a small kitchen, a den, and a bathroom. It has a loft above the kitchen and a very small loft (which now houses our harp, dulcimer, and flutes) above the bathroom. The rest of the house is still one large room with a 25' high ceiling and roof beams a foot thick. With brick walls two feet thick and a chimney (for the furnace and wood-burner) in the center of the room, it really holds the heat well in the winter.
The school also has a little history from the towns in the area built right in. The front door came from an old church in Shipshewana, Indiana, the brick under the wood-burner (which has designs carved into it and makes a good foot massager when you walk across it) was the sidewalk brick in Wabash, Indiana. The brick walkway outside was at one time a street in Tippecanoe, Indiana and the large ceiling fan used to be in the old Myer grocery store in Bristol, Indiana (and it still works).
One section is being kept in the schoolhouse theme. It still has the white brick showing on the inside of the house and the original wainscot. An old double seat school desk sits if front of the wainscot with schoolbooks and supplies from the same time period displayed on the desk.
There is a shelf around the perimeter of the main room about 10' up the wall. This is perfect for displaying antique items and old pictures of family members. The floor is carpeted, but will be changed to a wood floor in the future. There are oil lamps everywhere (and some electric also) that get plenty of use, as they light up the house well, are cheaper to use than electric, and we just like the light they put out.
The kitchen is small (but Chuck will adjust) but it has a wonderful Hoosier Cabinet and a pie safe. The cabinet doors are built is such a way that when we get tired of looking at them we can just pop out the wood panels and insert stained glass or screen to match the pie safe. What a wonderful way to redecorate inexpensively and often.
We are planning to turn the den into a late 1800's style office (except for the computer). We will be going to an auction at Jefferson School (where the students went to school after ours was closed) this summer to try to get some wainscot for the walls. There will be a wood floor and we put in an old style light with a circular carved ceiling piece around the light. We have an old foreman's desk and an old cabinet that was actually manufactured by the Tubbs (same as our last name) Manufacturing Company in Michigan and has the name Tubbs on all the handles and on a brass plate at the top of the cabinet. When this room is complete it will be like stepping back in time.
An extra heated one stall garage will serve great for Nancy's craft room. With a window to look out at the fields. An old shed is going to be converted into Chuck's woodwork shop. Both shops have large doors that can be left open in the summer.
With no close neighbors and the old flavor of the house, it's a great place to relax, watch the deer, and enjoy the evening. In the future it will be a great place to retire and reflect on the past.
Article and Picture
No Paper or No Plastic?
By Jon Dalton
Reluctantly setting aside the lofty and complicated socioeconomic maladies
Michigan's largest city faces, and even more reluctantly setting aside
possible solutions, there is one issue that everybody living in Detroit
knows about more than any student of sociology. For too long a time now,
Detroiters have had to drive at least ten miles out of their way to get the
groceries they need.
This isn't to say that there are no places to get groceries in Detroit.
Honey Bee Market, Eastern Market, University Food Center, a downright
enviable amount of private convenient stores and plenty of places that sell
food secondarily such as CVS Pharmacy are all great places to get certain
items and can absolutely provide enough to tide an average not-too-picky
shopper over. For an area as bustling as the Motor City, however, it just
isn't enough.
Try this: Think of your favorite chain grocery store, the place you can get
everything you need and cheap! Now open another tab (don't use this one!)
and google that store. Now click on google maps and take a moment to bask
in the awe of the convenience that is the twenty first century and how
quickly you can get almost anything should the mood strike. In the event of
a nuclear war, Global Warming doom, a SARS outbreak or even a zombie attack,
you can rest assured knowing you can fully stock your underground bunker
without breaking the bank. Now go back to the search bar with your favorite
store and type "Detroit" next to it. Notice anything? A standoffish bubble
around a certain city, maybe?
It might be the fault of ineffectual city planners, it might be that your
favorite store didn't care to help Detroit out, or it could be that the
amount of crime in every inch of the city simply makes doing business here
more trouble than it's worth. Whatever the reason, the abundance, quality,
convenience and thrift of major chain grocery stores is something Detroit is
going to have to do without. This is just tough luck for those men and women
who work long hours and only have later at night to shop, anyone who prefers
a certain variety and doesn't have transportation, or for a family on a
budget who like to buy in bulk and keep an eye out for sales. But really,
how many people fitting those descriptions could be in Detroit?
Hypothetically, if just one superstore planted itself firmly in an
accessible location of the city how much might the roughly 30% of Detroiters
who are on food stamps save on grocery costs? How much gas money would they
get to keep? How many lives could be improved in untold ways by someone
simply having one thing they need to help them through the week? Let's not
even deal with the jobs that would be created or we might start getting
Sociologists have noticed the lack of grocery stores in urban areas vs.
suburbs in other cities as well, on the off chance that anyone out there
isn't tired of hearing this though, analysts say it's particularly bad in
Detroit. As usual, assigning blame is too easy… and too difficult, and if
anyone isn't doing all they can to fix the problem, they surely know who
they are. Let's just make sure that if and when a Wal-Mart, Kroger, Meijer,
etc. decides to join our city, the first thing they see is a welcome mat
and a group of eager shoppers waiting with bells on… and food stamps…

ROMA — After a second meeting Sunday, many things remain unclear for residents here more than 16 months after the last landowners forum regarding proposed border wall construction in Starr County.
One thing does seem apparent: The wall is coming.
More than 50 residents of Roma packed the small Casa Del Rio building situated on the edge of the Roma bluffs, where dozens of the same residents also met in October 2017 to hear from representatives with the Texas Civil Rights Project and the Lower Rio Grande Valley Sierra Club about where the border wall would be placed in the county and what, if anything, they could do to stop it.
On Sunday, those residents from the city of about 10,000 people made their concerns known about the wall construction and how it may affect them. Government representation was again notably absent at the meeting, like the last.
The forum comes amid a lack of clarity in the aftermath of the president's national emergency declaration after lawmakers agreed on a spending bill that avoided another government shutdown and funded 55 miles of border wall in the Rio Grande Valley sector, some of which will likely be constructed in Starr County.
Scott Nicol, executive board member of the Sierra Club and one of the presenters at the Sunday forum, focused his presentation on the aforementioned spending bill and the details important to Roma residents, who will have to live with the proposed wall.
The funding for that wall came in March 2017, five months after the first Roma forum and when Congress appropriated $1.6 million for about 25 miles of wall in Hidalgo County, and about 8 to 12 miles in Starr County.
Efren Olivares, an attorney with the Texas Civil Rights Project who worked on behalf of Hidalgo landowners during construction of the Bush border wall in 2008, again gave landowners in attendance information about their respective rights should government officials try to access or subsequently take their land to build the wall.
Olivares, just like in the October 2017 meeting, explained Sunday what landowners could expect if and when the federal government began attempting to condemn or take land for the purposes of a wall — an area of expertise for the attorney from Alamo who challenged the federal government over Los Ebanos landowners' rights in 2008.
Residents like Yvette Gaytan of Roma, who was not at Sunday's meeting but attended the previous stakeholders meeting in 2017, expressed concern about recent contractors asking for permission to survey their land.
A few weeks ago Gaytan, who delivered a letter to U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar's staff expressing her concerns about construction, told The Monitor she was hoping the spending bill being negotiated by lawmakers to fund the government through the fall would not include any funding for border wall construction for fiscal year 2019, fearing that her property along the river would be in the wall's path.
Gaytan further expressed frustration over the lack of clarity from government officials about how much of her property would be in the path of the construction, a sentiment shared by many in attendance Sunday afternoon.
Mission resident Reynaldo Anzaldua, who was also in attendance and whose own relatives face the loss of their land in the Hidalgo County city of Mission, said he wanted to show support to his fellow landowners in Starr County.
"I wanted to see what these folks are going to do. They might be allies; you never know. We're in a fight right now, and they're starting to be in a fight," Anzaldua said before the start of the meeting.
Currently, his cousin Fred Cavazos is facing the loss of acres of land near the Rio Grande in Mission. In December federal contractors began surveying his land near Chimney Park.
Both Nicol and Olivares were quick to underscore the difficulty of taking on the federal government — despite this, they said, coming together and making their voices heard might be the only way to stop the imminent construction that threatens their respective lands.
"…It is possible, if you're loud enough," Nicol said. "If you make it so people like Rep. (Henry) Cuellar, and Sen. (John) Cornyn cannot ignore you, it is possible to push back on these things. It's really, really hard, but it is possible."

Aug. 2 (UPI) -- Police said an attempted burglary at an Indiana home was foiled by an unusual guard animal -- a family's pet pig.
Investigators said thieves broke into an Indianapolis home through the back door this week, but they left empty handed after apparently being confronted by Dumplin the pig.
"The officers were guessing when the person broke in they were probably surprised I had a pig and were like, 'We don't want to deal with this,'" the homeowner, who did not want to be identified, told WXIN-TV. "The cop was like we definitely think they got in and made it to where Dumplin was and thought, 'Nope. We don't want no part of this.'"
The woman said she adopted Dumplin, a fully-grown adult pig, from a rescue earlier this year.
"The moment I saw him I knew he loved me instantly. He's the perfect animal," the homeowner said.
Police said there were two other break-ins in the same neighborhood on the same day.

On Aug. 30, the Capital Athletic Conference (CAC) released their Pre-Season Coaches Poll for men's soccer. All of the eight CAC coaches vote as to which order they expect their opponents to finish the year in. After posting an 11 win campaign in 2017, the St. Mary's College of Maryland (SMCM) men's soccer program was picked to finish in third place. SMCM rounded out the poll with two first place votes, according to SMCM Athletics.
The Seahawks opened their 2018 regular season on Aug. 31 with a match against Moravian College (PA). This was their first of two games in the Elmer Lord Memorial Classic, hosted at Salisbury University. Despite tallying twelve shots in the first half, the Seahawks failed to score as the game entered the half tied at 0-0. Right before the end of the first half, thunder and lightning caused the game to be delayed almost three hours, according to SMCM Athletics. After play resumed, junior Khalid Balogun scored a goal on a free kick to put SMCM up 1-0. However, Moravian scored on a free kick of their own with just ten minutes left to play. This would be all of the scoring for the day, with the two teams tying at 1-1, according to SMCM Athletics.
Game two of the Elmer Lord Memorial Classic took place the next day for SMCM. This time facing Hobart College (NY), the Seahawks again had a very close game. In fact after regulation and two overtime periods, neither team had scored, so once again SMCM ended with a draw. They did however outshoot Hobart 19-16 and had more corner kicks (7-5), according to SMCM Athletics.
The Seahawks then proceeded to travel to Washington College for their third game on the year. With two draws under their belts, they looked to remain undefeated. SMCM went on to get their first win of the year, blanking Washington College 3-0. Goals were scored by junior Josh McRobie, sophomore Isaac Ekobo, and junior Khalid Balogun, according to smcmathletics.com. After this victory, SMCM went on to capture three straight wins at home against Virginia Wesleyan University (Sept. 8), Bridgewater College (Sept. 9), and Randolph-Macon College (Sept. 12).
The match against Virginia Wesleyan was by far the most exciting game of the season so far. The Seahawks fell behind 2-0 in the second half, but did not back down at all. Balogun scored two goals in the final five minutes of play, propelling SMCM to overtime. Ekobo then put away his third career game winning goal to give the Seahawks a thrilling 3-2 overtime victory, according to SMCM Athletics.
Due to inclement weather, SMCM had their Sept. 15 match against Stevenson University cancelled indefinitely. The Seahawks will now travel to Swarthmore College on Sept. 19 for their next matchup.
The Seahawks are led by seniors Josh Akwara (defense), Pascal Iraola (defense), Juwan Kearson (midfielder), and Aaron Tanenbaum (midfielder). Head coach Alun Oliver is now in his eighth season at the helm of the Seahawks.

|Keepin' The Faith
Pennsylvania 6-5000 is the fourth episode of the first season of ALF. It originally aired on Oct. 13, 1986.
Plot SummaryEdit
ALF becomes concerned that Earth is headed towards a nuclear disaster similar to the one that destroyed his home planet of Melmac. He therefore uses Willie's short wave radio to contact the President on Air Force One.
When ALF's call is misinterpreted as a threat, the FBI is sent to the Tanner residence and Willie is arrested. ALF comes up with a plan to call the President again and for Brian to pretend his nickname is "ALF," when the FBI returns.
When the FBI discovers that it is was only a child that contacted the President, Brian receives a special commendation for his interest in world peace and for exposing gaps in national security.
Title ReferenceEdit
"Pennsylvania 6-5000" is the name of a song by Jerry Gray and Carl Sigma, written for The Glenn Miller Orchestra. It was the phone number of the popular Hotel Pennsylvania in Manhattan. Over the years, the hotel has changed names, but the phone remains 212-736-5000.
- ALF's planet Melmac exploded during what ALF refers to as a "nuclear holocaust." When asked if nuclear war destroyed his planet, ALF sarcastically states that everyone plugged their hairdryers in at the same time.
- President Reagan's voice could be heard in the last phone scene, though it was impersonated.
- When ALF tells president Reagan he wants to talk to him about his [nuclear] bombs, Reagan misinterprets this as being his movie "Bedtime for Bonzo" which was not a critical success.

The Polian Connection
After a decade of success relying on Peyton Manning, Marvin Harrison, and for awhile Tony Dungy, the Indianapolis Colts are sitting undefeated through 14 games. Manning is still there, but Dungy and Harrison are not. With Manning still having several good years left in him, Reggie Wayne and Dallas Clark in the prime of their careers, and high quality young players like Pierre Garcon and Anthony Gonzalez, they look set for years to come as a continuing powerhouse of the AFC.
Their President of course is Bill Polian, who has held that position since 1998 and as far as I know remains the primary decisionmaker when it comes to the team's personnel. Prior to Polian joining the team, the Colts were basically awful. Since he joined the team, they have made the playoffs every year except for his first. Yes, obviously Peyton Manning has had quite a bit to do with that, but football is too much of a team sport for one player to be enough to get you to the playoffs year in and year out. And, of course, Polian drafted Manning when he could have just as easily drafted Ryan Leaf, probably the biggest bust in NFL history.
This says nothing about Polian's track record prior to joining the Colts, when he was the General Manager for the then-expansion Carolina Panthers, and made the personnel decisions that allowed them to become the fastest-ever team to reach a Conference championship game. He left the Panthers after just two seasons when the Colts made him an offer he could not refuse.
Of course, before Polian was with the Panthers, he was the architect of my Buffalo Bills' four consecutive conference championships (sadly, the Super Bowl was not held between 1991 and 1994, so no greater success was available to the team than a conference championship). Polian had taken the helm of the Bills as general manager after the 1985 season, when the Bills had developed a reputation as a truly abysmal franchise. Which is pretty much what they are now, come to think of it. By 1988, he was the NFL's Executive of the Year, an award he would again win four times in the ensuing 10 years.
At the end of the 1992 season, with the Bills 3/4 of the way through their run of conference championships (thanks to St. Frank Reich's performance in the Greatest Comeback of All Time), Polian was mysteriously and bizarrely fired by owner Ralph Wilson. Why? Because he didn't get along with the team's Treasurer. Yes, the bleeping Treasurer. Not Marv Levy. Not His Holiness Jim Kelly or Bruce the Magnificent. Not even Ralph Wilson himself. No, the Treasurer. While I understand that ultimately, pro sports are a for-profit enterprise, the ability of a franchise to turn a profit would seem to hinge far more on its ability to consistently win games by attracting quality personnel at a reasonable price than on anything over which a team's Treasurer may have control. I am also quite certain that one can find many adequately competent Treasurers; one cannot, however, find many adequately competent evaluators of talent.
Not to put too fine a point on it, but since 1988, Bill Polian has been the GM or President of a playoff team in all but five seasons, two of which he was not overseeing a team in the league, and two of which were his first seasons overseeing his respective team's football operations. In the overwhelming majority of those seasons, his team also won its division. Only once since 1988 has a Bill Polian administered team failed to make the playoffs after his first year (2001, when the Colts went 6-10).
Even more remarkably, he has done this while at the helm of small market franchises. Despite their small market, the Colts are now in the top half of NFL teams in terms of their value according to Forbes.
Ralph Wilson (for whom I have actually quite a bit of respect) has spent the last several years complaining about how it is impossible to be competitive and to run a profitable franchise in a small market like Buffalo. Unfortunately, it seems that the single biggest reason the Bills have been uncompetitive and only marginally profitable in the last decade plus has been Wilson's decision to fire the single greatest personnel man in NFL history over what was apparently little more than a personality conflict with a non-football employee.
One can only speculate as to what the NFL landscape would look like in 2009 had Wilson not made such a mystifying decision in 1993. Perhaps Polian would have left for the Panthers in any event, lured by the promise of greater pay and greater control. Or perhaps he would have remained in Buffalo. One thing is for certain, though – the Bills' unbelievably persistent futility over the last decade would not have been nearly as terrible had they had the type of consistent quality in personnel decisionmaking that Polian offered. What is also certain is that the Colts' unbelievably persistent success over the last decade would not have been nearly as remarkable had they not had the type of consistent quality in personnel decisionmaking that Polian offers.

Sergio Perez showed impressive pace during qualifying for the Russian Grand Prix, and was rewarded with a place on the third row of the grid at the event he secured a podium finish in 2015.
The Sahara Force India driver was naturally delighted with the outcome of the qualifying hour, and although he set the seventh fastest time he will start sixth due to Sebastian Vettel's grid penalty.
Perez feels his team are making good progress after so far failing to finish inside the points this season, and is optimistic of changing that statistic on Sunday afternoon.
"I am very pleased with our performance today and my final lap in Q3 was fantastic – just when it mattered," said Perez. "We were strong in Q1 and Q2; I was feeling very comfortable in the car and I was able to deliver great laps in each of the sessions.
"We are making good progress as a team and our pace over one lap is very strong: it will be interesting to see how we perform tomorrow because we have a fast car behind us and it will be a big challenge to hold our position.
"This is not a track that helps overtaking so there should be some nice battles. We have enough tyres to choose the best strategy tomorrow and I am optimistic we can come away with a nice result."
Team-mate Nico Hulkenberg was unable to match the pace of his team-mate, and found himself eliminated after Q2, finishing the session down in thirteenth position, and the German is expecting a tough race after not being comfortable behind the VJM09 all weekend long around the Sochi Autodrom.
"It was a fairly straightforward qualifying session, but not with the outcome I wanted," revealed Hulkenberg. "I've not felt comfortable since I jumped in the car yesterday and it's been a struggle to find the grip and performance we were expecting.
"We changed a lot of parts overnight and before qualifying, but it didn't take us in the direction we needed. Obviously we can't change the car ahead of the race so I think it's going to be a tough Sunday considering how close things are in the middle of the grid."

What's In A Name? Locating Name Change Records
Do you need proof of a name change? The process of changing a name requires petitioning, or asking, the court. This means that specific forms need to be completed and filed at the court house, and, once the forms have been filed, there will be a court hearing addressing the reason for the name change. Since name changes do require a court hearing, the records for name change petitions are filed and can be viewed by the public, unless the court determines there is a reason for the information to be sealed.

Negroes in the American Revolution, No. 2, 1961
Shirley Graham Du Bois remembered that as a child she read, with others, the Declaration of Independence and never forgot "that all men are created equal and endowed with certain inalienable rights." She became a lifelong student of American history.
Beginning in 1771 and for two decades thereafter, the Fifth of March was commemorated as Independence Day in America. Not until after all states had ratified the Constitution and the Union was firmly established was the Fourth of July substituted for general celebration. Even then, particularly in New England, the Fifth of March continued to be a day of oratory recalling the beginning of the struggle for Independence. Because on March 5, 1770, occurred the Boston Massacre, designated [by] Daniel Webster as: "From that moment we may date the severance of the British Empire." And in oration, poetry and song the name Crispus Attucks, a Negro, was hailed as the first to die for American independence. Schoolboys recited the verse carved as inscription on the monument to the four victims:

Barry Trotz transitions from Predators to Capitals
In San Jose last month, first-year Predators coach Peter Laviolette joked about his troubles finding his way in some Western Conference arenas after spending the first 12 years of his coaching career in the Eastern Conference.
Barry Trotz can relate.
Following a game earlier this season in Washington, the former Predators coach needed to drive to Dulles Airport to catch a flight to the next game.
There was one problem: he didn't know how to get there.
"I actually followed one of our players," Trotz said. "I didn't realize that he had his wife with him and he was dropping her off at his house before going to the airport."
Trotz will not have that problem when he returns to Nashville on Friday night to face the Predators for the first time as a visiting coach with the Washington Capitals.
When the season began, Trotz, who coached the Predators for 15 seasons, admitted catching himself saying "Nashville" instead of "Washington" in interviews. But he said those slips that came with adjusting to a new team and a new city are past him now.
There was also an adjustment period away from the ice at his new home in Arlington, Va. Trotz and his wife, Kim, live with their teenage son, Nolan, while the two oldest daughters remain in Nashville working.
Nolan, who has Down syndrome, enjoyed an active social life growing up in Brentwood, with his siblings visiting on an almost daily basis. The move disrupted that routine.
"We found it was probably heartwrenching for mom and dad at first, because we'd find him up in his room, and looking through his yearbook and circling all of his friends," Trotz said. "You could tell there was a sadness in his heart."
But Nolan's situation is improving, too, Trotz said. He is playing hockey — something he never liked to do in Nashville.
"We got him some hockey equipment and hold him he's Iron Man," Trotz said. "He loves his superheroes. We put some skates on him and have him skating, and he's starting to become part of a special needs hockey program that they have here."
There are little differences to Trotz's daily routine. He can walk to Verizon Center from his home just across the Potomac River when he wants — something he was never able to do in Nashville.
"It's just a different style of living," he said. "It's been fun. I've got some great people to work with and a team that's embracing what we're trying to do here."
Like Laviolette and the NHL-leading Predators (29-9-4), the Capitals are enjoying a resurgent season under Trotz's leadership. The Capitals (23-11-8) are third in a tight Metropolitan Division race after missing the playoffs last season.
Trotz called the team culture in Washington "Pred-like in a lot of ways" and described it as a family atmosphere.
He brought former Predators goaltending coach Mitch Korn and assistant Lane Lambert with him to Washington, added power-play specialist Todd Reirden from Pittsburgh and retained Capitals assistant Blaine Forsyth from the previous coaching staff.
"A lot of the things are the same in terms of concepts; hopefully with adding new staff you get new and fesh ideas," Trotz said. "We've created a hybrid of maybe Washington, Nashville and Pittsburgh."

By Dr Maria Rieder, School of Culture & Communication
From Sunday 16th July to Friday 21st July the International Pragmatics Association held their 15th biennial conference in Belfast and I was delighted to be able to attend this prestigious and major global conference. The conference was this time hosted by the Ulster University and took place at the Belfast Waterfront Hall, an impressive venue for the 1,300 delegates who came together to explore connections between language use and social action in a large programme covering an array of topics in Pragmatics, Linguistics and Communication Sciences.
The special theme of this year's conference was "Pragmatics in the Real World", and what made the conference so attractive was not least the many well-known invited keynote speakers. The conference was opened by Deborah Cameron, who spoke on gender, power and political speech. Other keynote lectures ranged from talks on conversation analysis such as Peter Auer's on turn allocation, addressee selection and gaze and Elizabeth Stokoe's on conversation openings, to timely talks on fake news (Colleen Cotter), the expression of authority in primary care units (John Heritage), to Li Wei's applied linguistics lecture in which he developed theories in the area of translanguaging and learning perspectives.
I myself participated in a panel on 'Responsibility, Migration and Integration', chaired by Jan-Ola Östman and discussant Jef Verschueren, which sought to develop the notion of 'responsibility' in critical sociolinguistics. In the spirit of the special theme, the papers focused on the empirical analysis of identity construction, agency and role-relationships in refugee and other migration contexts, contributing to challenges of integration in different parts of the world. My own contribution revealed preliminary findings from a study of pragmatic and prosodic differences between Irish Travellers and settled Irish people and the role that these differences as well as folk perceptions may play in matters of inequality and conflict.
It was a big privilege to attend this conference which was not only a fantastic and inspiring academic and professional experience, but also a successful social event during which I made valuable contacts with researchers from diverse fields. Throughout the week we were being looked after extremely well by the academic and Waterfront Hall staff and the programme provided generous space for meeting and greeting during break times, for exploring the book stalls as well as for visiting the city. Belfast and the host university did a fantastic job of hospitality and created a unique experience for all of us.
