The Republic is in crisis. The Sith roam unchecked, vying with one another to dominate the galaxy. But one lone Jedi, Kerra Holt, is determined to take down the Dark Lords.

Sensing a sinister pattern in the chaos, Kerra embarks on a journey that will take her into fierce battles against even fiercer enemies. With one against so many, her only chance of success lies with forging alliances among those who serve her enemies--including a mysterious Sith spy and a clever mercenary general. But will they be her adversaries or her salvation?

Workplace Representation
The local 'primary level' unions are the most important form of employee representation in Greece. They have clear legal rights covering information, consultation and negotiation, although as a result of the crisis no-union bodies have been given negotiating powers. The law also provides for a works council structure. But in reality, works councils are only found in a few companies, and where they exist, they work closely with the local union.
The legal rights which the local union, the primary level union organisation, exercises in the workplace has, until recently, provided the key to the representation of employees in Greece. Primary level union organisations have extensive rights to information and consultation under the 1982 Trade Union Democracy Act, and in 1990 these rights were extended to negotiation.
Works councils can exist alongside the primary level unions, under legislation passed in 1988, but their position is clearly less powerful than that of the unions and they have not been widely set up, other than in larger companies. (The rules are also different in the "state sector" such as public utilities and transport.) In reality, only a few companies have works councils, and if there is no union, there will not be a works council.
The crisis has also resulted in the emergence of another body representing workers, the so-called "associations of persons". Although it has been possible to set up associations of persons since 1982, before 2011 they could only have a temporary existence – normally six months; they could only be set up in small companies – fewer than 40 employees; and they could not sign collective agreements. However, under the arrangements introduced in 2011 (Law 4024/2011) there is now no limit on how long they operate and they can sign collective agreements for companies of any size, provided there is no union in the company and 60% of the workforce belongs to the association of persons. Those representing the associations of persons have no permanent mandate and no protection against mistreatment by the employer. In the period 2011 to 2013, they were used to promote increasingly decentralised bargaining and pay cuts.1
In addition to these bodies, health and safety delegates should be elected in workplaces with more than 20 employees and a health and safety committee should also be set up in workplaces with more than 50 employees.
The crisis has also given new powers to another body representing workers, the so-called "associations of persons". Although it has been possible to set up associations of persons since 1982, in the past they could only have a temporary existence, normally six months; they could only be set up in small companies – fewer than 40 employees; and they could not sign collective agreements. However, under the new arrangements there is no limit on how long they operate and they can sign collective agreements for companies of any size, provided 60% of the workforce belongs to them. Those representing these associations of persons have no permanent mandate and no protection against mistreatment by the employer.1
Numbers and structure
A primary level trade union with members at the workplace has a range of rights, irrespective of the number of members or employees. Where there is no union, the employees themselves can come together to establish an association of persons, although this body can only sign agreements if at least 60% of the employees belong to it (see above).
The law lays down clear rules as to how primary level unions should operate. They must elect an executive committee, which should include a president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer. There are no rules as to how many members there should be on the union executive committee, but the law does stipulate how many members in a workplace are given protection against dismissal. These numbers increase with the size of the workplace (see table).
Number employed
Number of protected union committee members
up to 200
The union committee meets as required but union workplace representatives should be able to meet the employer at least once a month.
According to guidance issued by the ministry of labour, an association of persons can be set up by as few as five employees and should have at least two elected representatives.2
Works councils can only be set up in larger workplaces, with 50 employees or more. (Works councils can, in theory, also be set up in workplaces with between 20 and 49 employees if there is no union. However, in practice, this does not occur.)
The request to set up a works council must be made either by the primary level union or by 10% of the workforce. They are elected by the whole workforce and consist only of employees (there are no representatives of the employer). The number of works council members increases with the size of the workplace (see table)
Number employed
Number of works council members
less than 300
The works council should meet at least once a month. Once every two months, or more frequently if either side request it, the works council should meet the employer.
Tasks and rights
As well as the basic trade union tasks such as collecting trade union subscriptions, union workplace representatives in Greece have information, consultation and negotiating rights although these are defined fairly generally.
The information and consultation rights begin with the monthly meeting with the employer where the two sides should "attempt to resolve any problems relating to workers or their union organisation". Trade union representatives can also be present at inspections carried out by the ministry of labour.
In addition, as part of the negotiating process, the trade union representatives have a right to ask for information on the economic position and plans of the company as well as its personnel policies.
Issues where the union representatives should be consulted in advance include large-scale redundancies, changes in the legal form of the business, and changes in working conditions, and the two sides should try to reach an agreement through negotiation.
The union at the workplace also has a more general negotiating role.
An association of persons at the workplace can negotiate, but only if 60% of employees belong to it.
The law sets out the information and consultation rights of the works council more exactly. The works council should be kept informed of the overall economic position of the business, including its annual report and accounts. It has rights to advance information on: changes in the legal form of the business; any transfer or major change of production capacity; the introduction of new technology; changes in the structure of the workforce including increases or decreases; the planning of any overtime; and yearly health and safety investment plans.
The works council also has the right to make proposals on improving productivity and working conditions.
In addition, there are a number of areas, where the works council is able to take decisions "in agreement with" the employer. These cover: training; the use of new technology; works regulations; holiday arrangements; the return to work of those who have suffered an accident at work; health and safety rules; and social and cultural activities. Where there is no trade union, the works council also has consultation rights over large scale redundancies and variations in working time – as already stated, this reflects more a theoretical than a real possibility.
The predominance of the union channel for decision-making is emphasised by the fact that all these areas can be settled through negotiated agreements between the employer and the union, and that, if such a negotiated agreement is reached, it takes precedence over any arrangements agreed with the works council.
Election and term of office
Elections to the executive committee of the primary level trade union must take place at least every three years. The voting should be at an assembly of the members and should be secret.
Representatives of an association of persons should also be elected.
Works council members are elected every two years in a secret ballot in an assembly of the workforce.
Protection against dismissal
Both works council members and a limited number of union representatives benefit from protection against dismissal. They can only be dismissed in certain tightly defined circumstances, such as the disclosure of secret information or the use or threat of violence or abusive language towards the employer. There is no specific protection for representatives of an association of persons.
Time-off and other resources
The president, vice-president and general secretary of the union in a workplace are each entitled to three days a month time off if there are less than 500 employees in the workplace. In workplaces with 500 employees or more this goes up to five days a month. However, this time off is unpaid.
The union is entitled to the use of a notice board. And provided that there are at least 80 employees, the employer should provide the union with the largest number of members in the workplace with a meeting room (meetings to take place outside working hours). Where there are more than 100 employees, the employer should provide office space to the union with the largest membership.
The chair and all other members of the works council are entitled to two hours off a week for works council business. They also have a legal right to 12 days paid leave for trade union training during their two-year period of office.
There are no specific time-off rights for representatives of an association of persons.
The works council must be given access to a notice board and should have office space in workplaces with more than 100 employees. The works council can also, with the agreement of the employer, use external experts, particularly on health and safety questions.
Representation at group level
In groups of companies the works councils of the different subsidiaries can appoint some of their number as representatives to co-ordinate their activities.

According the brochure http://i.mt.lv/routerboard/files/SextantG-5HPnD.pdf it has 16,8 degrees beam-Width (@ 3dB) in the H-Plane and 22,8 degrees in the E-Plane. ("E" stands for "Elevated"?)
So this means that the Vertical beam is actually bigger than the horizontal? Is this not a bit weird? Should this not be the otherway round?
Usually on directional/sectorial antennas the vertical beam it rather small compared to the horizantal.
Because stations will be found in the more or less same horizontal sector seen from the AP where they can be everywhere around up to 360 degrees (which would than have the need for a omni directional...)
So, am I misinterpreting? Or is it mis printed on the .pdf or is it all correct but is the design of the antenna a bit weird?
(Or am I completely missing the concept here....?

President Barack Obama speaks on the importance of fathers in a child's life, and the effect of NOT having a father in a child's. The rate of illiteracy, and crime that are increased by the absence of a father.
When it comes to who teaches boys to be men, it is my belief that MEN teach boys, to be MEN. It is by frequent and constant interaction and demonstration that a man learns how a good man responds to the world and its challenges. We learn by observation, example and interaction. Fathers matter.

Drinfeld's work on the pro-semisimple completion of the fundamental group of a smooth variety over a finite field
Hot Topics: Recent progress in Langlands Program April 08, 2019 - April 12, 2019
Location: MSRI: Simons Auditorium
Langlands correspondence
The l-adic pro-semisimple completion of a profinite group packages its l-adic representations valued in (not necessarily connected) semisimple groups. When the profinite group considered is the étale fundamental group of a smooth variety over a finite field k, Drinfeld has proven an "independence-of-l" result for these pro-semisimple completions. This talk will describe the result precisely, and explain how Drinfeld ultimately reduces it to the existence of compatible systems containing a given l-adic local system on X. This existence result in turn follows from the Langlands correspondence when X is a curve, and in general from an earlier result of Drinfeld reducing the general case to the case of curves.

UMSI Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) Strategic Plan and Implementation
An engaged group of 44 UMSI faculty, staff, and students gathered for the second annual DE&I retreat on Thursday, March 15, 2018, using design-centered thinking to discuss ideas and strategies for continuing to implement UMSI's Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion Strategic Plan.
To strengthen UMSI's commitment to increase the diversity of our school and make its environment welcoming to everyone, in 2013 UMSI developed a diversity statement and a series of goals to be worked toward over the next five to seven years.
In coordination with the University's Strategic Plan for Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, we expanded our vision in 2016 with our five year UMSI Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Strategic Plan. In 2017, we revised our plan to include action items for 2017/2018. Read the revised plan here.
To build greater awareness of the core aspects of the plan we developed an executive summary of the UMSI DEI strategic plan including our 5-year DEI strategic objectives and measures of success and a framework for the implementation cycle supporting the plan. To download these documents, click on the links below.
To maintain transparency and accountability, we present the UMSI Year Three (2018-2019) DEI Strategic Plan Progress Report and will share this report with the UMSI community via email.
The University's DEI Strategic Plan Year One Progress Report is available. Note that UMSI's Community College Summer Institute (CCSI) is among a select set of unit based initiatives highlighted in the university report. A compendium document of Unit-Based Strategic Objectives and Action Items provides a summary report on the nearly 2,000 action items that constituted the initial 49 unit plans.
Questions or comments? Email Judy Lawson, Assistant Dean for Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion at email@example.com.

President Donald Trump suggested shooting migrants in the legs in order to slow them down after they crossed the southern border during a March meeting in which he called for a shutdown of the entire US-Mexico border, The New York Times reported.
The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.
And your problem is???
Life is what you make it.
Did the guy that told him he cant get fired?
If you see me jogging, kill whatever is chasing me
Say again?
Someone had to tell the idiot he cant shoot migrants, did that someone get fired?
Im thinking it was a group who told him.
Some good news though on the Whistleblower. That Chuck Grassley, the Senate GOP leader, is for protecting him. Although he is a Trump supporter, he is being fair in this case.
I heard that too. Funny how he declared that it wasn't him that said it. It was someone else, just like always
Several ppl heard this come out of his mouth. It was fake news of course.

Bray Architects conducted a comprehensive facility study for the Little Chute Area School District, helping the district to identify specific areas of need within their intermediate/middle/high school campus. Aided by this insight and Bray's close partnership, the Little Chute Facilities Task Force (a diverse group of volunteers) reviewed, analyzed, and prioritized current and future facility needs. Concluding that some of the identified areas of need could not be addressed within the district's regular operating budget, the task force made a unanimous recommendation to the Board in January 2017 to proceed to a community referendum for facility improvements.
A successful April 2017 referendum allowed the district to accomplish the following: resolve safety/security concerns by constructing a new secure visitor entrance and consolidating the middle and high school offices into one location; advance school learning environments with the introduction of dedicated Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM), electronics, and CAD labs; improve instructional flexibility with the creation of collaboration spaces and classrooms for small group instruction; and renovate/expand the existing kitchen, serving, and student dining areas.
Other improvements included the consolidation of the campus' two separate libraries for increased efficiency, expansion of physical education spaces, and reconfiguring the middle school parking lot to improve safety of drop-off/pick-up. Upgrades to building infrastructure (heating, cooling, ventilation, and roof replacements) now mean a more efficient school and lower maintenance costs.

The Evil Kumihimo and The Australian Outback
Now, I had a bout of Chinese knot tying last year. Another one of those things that you need to be Chinese to conquer. I managed to get a couple styles down but, phrew. I have enough brain damage. So, I sez, Self, we will learn kumihimo. Ok, you all read, in a previous post here, of the disaster of the first tries. I could have rivaled the mummifiers in ancient Egypt.
Ok, I learned how to make the braids and work the discs. Yay for me. :( How ever.... no matter WHAT it say, there is NEVER enough cord. I'm pretty sure I read that you need double the amount of cord for whatever length you want your braid. This is not true. You need about 6 extra miles. I have, in my fun little kumihimo box, about 30 gorgeous braids that range from 7 inches to 13 inches. Why does this happen to me? When you start out with a couple miles of cord, you oughta have enough, right? Wrong. To say nothing of all those miles of twitching cord on the floor. With 2 cats, I am BEGGING for problems. You guys ever notice how I seem to go out of my way to give myself brain damage?
And speaking of that...wait til you hear THIS! Jeez. Ok, I decide that because I have all these lovely braids that I will cone the ends and use pretty chain for the rest. YEAH! I like this idea. I drag out my bag of cones and do it to one braid. Looks great! So, I leave my bag of cones on my work table so I can do the rest. Let me just tell you how dumb this was.
In the meantime, I decide that my pal Gilly, in Australia, needs a goody box. So, one day, I am going through all my stuff to see what I can send Gills. I get this big box full of stuff. It's heavy! Bless flat rat boxes!
So, I get it all packed, get out my handy dandy little cart and trots myself to the post office where I send it winging its merry way to the wilds of the Australian Outback.
The next day I decide I will cone more of my braids. Hmmm, where are my cones? They are nowhere to be found. Now, as you all know, I am delirious most of the time. Because *I* know this too, I go looking all over the place. I tear my studio apart. No cones. OIKS! I am almost certain I have inadvertently sent them on an Australian vacation. Oh NOS! So, I toddle to my computer to tell Gills.
She, being the mega brat that she is, thinks this is screamingly funny and gives me shit about being senile. Somehow I am missing the humor in this. Naturally, Gills laughs even harder. So, while I sit in Honolulu wondering how I will get my braids finished, Gilly is having a hearty laugh at my expense. Is this fair? Really. I ask you. :D

Aww. It could have been worse: Daddy-in-law once mailed us his super-expensive, massively-critical, cannot-be-skipped medications along with presents for his grandbaby. :D
Once you get more cones (or Gills mails them back?) maybe you can salvage the smaller braids as keychains or earrings? I need to pull my braid book out & see what lengths of cord it recommends compared to your instructions. *makes note to self*

Did I laugh that much????????? Why yes, I believe I did!!!!!!!!!!

well of course Gills laughed....hell we all are laughing because we all know we could do the same damn thing. However, YOU saved us from doing it by doing it first. You are da bomb Ipo :)

Yeah, Kat, do go see if you can find somewhere that it tells how much cord I need. ;( i'm SURE it can't be 6 miles. :)

Yes, Gills. I heard you all the way here. But you have been thwarted1 I found the little buggers in my wire drawer. :D

Somehow, I've managed to pass the two-month mark of my first time in L.A, and while I'm often tempted to fall into the familiar cliche of saying that I feel like I just got here, I'd be doing this summer an injustice if I did. Thanks to my internships offering me opportunities to cover premieres and event, and to new friends making the transition from tourist to transplant painless, L.A. feels more familiar than somewhere I've only been for eight weeks. Already, a bouncer at my favorite bar once remembered me. I complain about the selfie stick-wielding mobs on Hollywood Boulevard. I have strong opinions about Coffee Bean versus Starbucks.
I can't say it feels like I just got here because more has happened in the past few months than sometimes happens in half a year. Coming here, the writer in me demanded that I keep careful record of what happened, but, of course, I've only managed two journal entries, many weeks apart that mostly fret over how pale I am and ask how I haven't yet met Anna Kendrick. No record of nights of unexpected glory at Break Room 86, an '80s bar with Michael Jackson impersonators and break dancers, or the fortune spent on $10 pressed juice, or a slow mastering of Hollywood phone lingo. Part of me berates myself for not making a more consistent effort to record the minute details of the summer. That part is prematurely nostalgic, because I don't want this to end. I'm smitten.
They say you either hate or love L.A., but I think that's the nature of cities that offer you the keys to the metaphorical kingdom. New York promises skyscraper grandeur, Wall Street paychecks, and publishing glory. L.A.'s got Hollywood. We worship these places for what they promise, and we turn on them because they often let us down. I was like that. I'm still like that. I'm annoyingly idealistic and an aggressive proponent of why everyone should make the move out west.
But if I've learned anything being here, it's that no true love affair is that black and white. L.A. has the downsides everyone talks about: appearance is valued over personality. People think they're entitled to a fast-track to fame. Those in the public eye can act like their name elevates them to a status above everyone else. Sometimes, when you're one of a mass of people all chasing after the same thing, it can be discouraging. The city doesn't owe you success, and unless you get extraordinarily lucky, you're not going to get spontaneously plucked out of obscurity in a city saturated with dreamers. That's a rude awakening, especially when people come here starry-eyed with hope, but it's also what makes L.A. great.
L.A. forces you to work hard, to be more creative, to push your boundaries, to learn what really gets you up in the morning, while offering beaches, parties and mind-blowing good food when you need a break. L.A. gives nothing except the opportunities and tools to eventually do something. L.A. is a place where, trite as it sounds, dreams come true, just as other dreams are smashed to smithereens to give way to new ones.
And I wouldn't have it any other way.

Hearing of the holy name of the Lord (śravaṇam) is the beginning of devotional service. Although any one of the nine processes is sufficient, in chronological order the hearing of the holy name of the Lord is the beginning. Indeed, it is essential. As enunciated by Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, Ceto-darpaṇa-mārjanam: [Cc. Antya 20.12] by chanting the holy name of the Lord, one is cleansed of the material conception of life, which is due to the dirty modes of material nature. When the dirt is cleansed from the core of one's heart, one can realize the form of the Supreme Personality of Godhead—īśvaraḥ paramaḥ kṛṣṇaḥ sac-cid-ānanda-vigrahaḥ [Bs. 5.1]. Thus by hearing the holy name of the Lord, one comes to the platform of understanding the personal form of the Lord. After realizing the Lord's form, one can realize the transcendental qualities of the Lord, and when one can understand His transcendental qualities one can understand the Lord's associates. In this way a devotee advances further and further toward complete understanding of the Lord as he awakens in realization of the Lord's holy name, transcendental form and qualities, His paraphernalia, and everything pertaining to Him. Therefore the chronological process is śravaṇaṁ kīrtanaṁ viṣṇoḥ [SB 7.5.23]. This same process of chronological understanding holds true in chanting and remembering. When the chanting of the holy name, form, qualities and paraphernalia is heard from the mouth of a pure devotee, his hearing and chanting are very pleasing. Śrīla Sanātana Gosvāmī has forbidden us to hear the chanting of an artificial devotee or nondevotee.
Hearing from the text of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is considered the most important process of hearing. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is full of transcendental chanting of the holy name, and therefore the chanting and hearing of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam are transcendentally full of mellows. The transcendental holy name of the Lord may be heard and chanted accordingly to the attraction of the devotee. One may chant the holy name of Lord Kṛṣṇa, or one may chant the holy name of Lord Rāma or Nṛsiṁhadeva (rāmādi-mūrtiṣu kalā-niyamena tiṣṭhan [Bs. 5.39]). The Lord has innumerable forms and names, and devotees may meditate upon a particular form and chant the holy name according to his attraction. The best course is to hear of the holy name, form and so on from a pure devotee of the same standard as oneself. In other words, one who is attached to Kṛṣṇa should chant and hear from other pure devotees who are also attached to Lord Kṛṣṇa. The same principle applies for devotees attracted by Lord Rāma, Lord Nṛsiṁha and other forms of the Lord. Because Kṛṣṇa is the ultimate form of the Lord (kṛṣṇas tu bhagavān svayam [SB 1.3.28]), it is best to hear about Lord Kṛṣṇa's name, form and pastimes from a realized devotee who is particularly attracted by the form of Lord Kṛṣṇa. In Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, great devotees like Śukadeva Gosvāmī have specifically described Lord Kṛṣṇa's holy name, form and qualities. Unless one hears about the holy name, form and qualities of the Lord, one cannot clearly understand the other processes of devotional service. Therefore Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu recommends that one chant the holy name of Kṛṣṇa. paraṁ vijayate śrī-kṛṣṇa-saṅkīrtanam. If one is fortunate enough to hear from the mouth of realized devotees, he is very easily successful on the path of devotional service. Therefore hearing of the holy name, form and qualities of the Lord is essential.
In Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (1.5.11) there is this verse:
tad-vāg-visargo janatāgha-viplavo
yasmin prati-ślokam abaddhavaty api
nāmāny anantasya yaśo-'ṅkitāni yat
śṛṇvanti gāyanti gṛṇanti sādhavaḥ
"Verses describing the name, form and qualities of Anantadeva, the unlimited Supreme Lord, are able to vanquish all the sinful reactions of the entire world. Therefore even if such verses are improperly composed, devotees hear them, describe them and accept them as bona fide and authorized."
In this connection, Śrīdhara Svāmī has remarked that a pure devotee takes advantage of another pure devotee by trying to hear from him about the holy name, form and qualities of the Lord. If there is no such opportunity, he alone chants and hears the Lord's holy name.

Jenny is in perpetual search for easy, weeknight recipes to attempt to feed her family. When they balk, she just eats more.
Today: Salmon gets a new weeknight treatment.
Salmon is a weekly offering in my house, largely because my fish guy sells the best I've ever had, and because everyone in my house loves it, the only form of unity we have beyond our collective ability to watch "Napoleon Dynamite" 100 times.
Usually a nice dose of salt in a hot oven will do with this fish, but sometimes one wants variety. A good choice in that event is Tangy Teriyaki Salmon.
This is a typical Asian preparation, but you cook the fish right in the sauce rather than marinating Mr. Salmon, and then reduce said sauce a bit with some onions, in sort of a French twist. Sort of. Watch this dish on the stove, friends; I would never cook salmon for 15 minutes but you need to cook it to your temperature preference.

Alibaba Group is a Chinese multinational e-commerce, retail, Internet, AI and technology conglomerate that provides consumer-to-consumer, business-to-consumer and business-to-business sales services via web portals, as well as electronic payment services, shopping search engines and cloud computing services.
Judging by the documents recently filed to the US District Court in Manhattan, New York, Alibaba charged the developers of the Alibabacoin over the "prominent, repeated, and intentionally misleading" use of its trademark. Alibaba Group stated that it is not in any way related to Alibabacoin currency and does not want to be associated with it, or have its customers misled.
The Initial Coin Offering of Alibabacoin has started on April 16, and has already managed to raise $3.5 million. Nevertheless, although Alibabacoin and Alibaba Group are not related, previously Chinese giant of Internet commerce Alibaba Group was expressing concerns about the launch of a platform for the mining of cryptocurrency, which was reported by CCN with reference to unconfirmed information from local media. We believe that only time will show if Alibaba company finds its way in a crypto-related industry or not.

In yet another display of establishment hypocrisy, the Nixon fanboy,* Stephen Colbert, has denounced a group of people who, allegedly attempted to break into the home** of Fox "News" proagandist and irresponsible ally of Trump's bigotry and fascim, Tucker Carlson.
Colbert makes the following point: "Fighting Tucker Carlson's ideas is an American right. Targeting his home and terrorizing his family is an act of monstrous cowardice. Obviously don't do this, but also, take no pleasure in it happening. Feeding monsters just makes more monsters."
This of course is a textbook example of privilege. White, wealthy, male, corporate privilege. Not everyone has a hunk of prime time real estate and millions of dollars, and the protection afforded by wealth, the dubious, if problematic, security of a major corporate sponsor and the relative safety of fame. Listening to Colbert admonish the victims of a court jester who pimps for state terror, to be civil, is like listening to a pedophile priest deliver a sermon on chastity.
Tucker Carlson has spent the better part of several years advocating state terror disguised as conservative opinion. He is aligned with a delusional, racist, fascist gangster whose idea of civility is attacking journalists, fabricating evidence of an assault, revoking their access as a means to intimidating his critics and stopping scrutiny of the regime. This is done against a backdrop of systemic corruption, environmental genocide, and spasms of domestic terrorism, about which no one of any public stature is asking, how can a government that devotes hundreds of billions of dollars to mass surveillance keep missing the flashing lights of impending violence, when it's committed by White men in America?***
Tucker Carlson is in effect screaming at an enraged atavistic mob, that the foreigners, the queers, the women, the Jews, the Blacks, and the Latinos are all coming to get them, and when victims of his, shouting fire in a crowded theater rhetoric, get enraged, and show up at his front door to say, hey mother fucker, stop inciting mob violence or it will come to you, Colbert is there to wag his finger in America's face.
He's right of course, violence is not the answer, which is why we expect him to demand that Carlson stop ginning up mob violence, stop making excuses for bigotry and tyranny, and that the only way to stop it is through civil disobedience, and that, he is going to demonstrate his concern for our fragile republic, and his contempt for Carlson's fascism, by going on strike, and staging a series of acts of disruptive civil disobedience, including but not limited to, organizing his wealthy White liberal friends, to stage sit-ins, occupations, and other actions that force the Democrats to act in defense of the Constitution, relieving the rest of the country of the need to defend itself against tyranny, through increasingly desperate and drastic means.
But of course, that's a joke because the truth is, Colbert is a liberal hypocrite who will go on cracking jokes, having Sean Spicer and Henry Kissinger on as guests, waxing nostalgic for Nixon, and lecturing the victims of Carlson's Father Coughlin style terrorism, that some people can shout fire, in a crowded theater, and everyone else has the right to be trampled to death.
*For a look at Colbert's affection for Nixon, see the following:
**Crucially, the media, and Colbert could not be bothered to point out that there is now contrary evidence suggesting that no one attempted to break into Carlson's home, no damage was done to his property and that the entire episode was an example of wealthy White boys pissing themselves because someone told them to shut the fuck up and stop inciting violence.
***Our colleague, David Benjamin Steele makes the valid point that the FBI et al have been open (within the limits of both legitimate security and illegitimate, systemic, mendacity) about the threat posed by White Nationalist Terrorism. Many individuals in the security establishment are perfectly well aware of the threat, the byzantine and corrupt politics involved and work to do what is right.
That of course does not change the fact that the system is corrupt and as a result, between bureaucratic lethargy, deliberate cynical indifference, and authentic right wing, neo-fascist support, the same machinery of surveillance that has locked the American left in a virtual gulag, is also used to enable the threat and use it as a pretext for an ever expanding system of control.
This is hardly unique. Writing about such situation nearly a century ago, Joseph Conrad gave the world the novel, The Secret Agent. And in terms of federal agents going so far "undercover" as to become, de facto agents of terror, one need only consider Conrad's Mista Kurtz or his later iteration in Apocalypse Now – based not only on Heart of Darkness but on the ugly truths of Operation Phoenix – the CIA orchestrated, Vietnam based death squads, to see that the very nature of counter-intelligence, counter-terrorism, and their bureaucratic architecture are flawed at the level of their DNA.

Perhaps Colbert will comment on this:

Shifted Trunk
My daughter (aged 13) has a C curve at 40 degrees. The specialist said bracing will not assist her because her trunk has shifted. I haven't been able to find much information about this and would like your opinion. Is surgery required once a trunk has shifted? Does bracing stop working once this happens?
Also, the specialist said once the trunk shifts the curve continues to get worse. Could he have meant up until she stops growing, or do curves get worse through adulthood too?
Re: Shifted Trunk
Thank you for your enquiry. Without more details it is impossible to be precise in the information I pass on to you but some comments in general terms are permissible.
With larger curves such as those which are >40 degrees, bracing is not effective because to have a corrective force a great deal of pressure has to be exerted over the apex of the curve and this is not a practical proposition. For most curves, bracing is reserved for patients who are in the active growth phase and whose curves have been shown to increase on progressive x-rays with a range of 30-40 degrees or thereabouts. It is to be emphasised that bracing plays a role in trying to keep the curve in acceptable limits through the growth phase. Bracing never completely eliminates a curve. Rather, it is a matter of curve control.
The term trunk shifting is applied when the torso and head, together with the upper limbs, are not centred over the pelvis. Most often we call this truncal imbalance or truncal decompensation. In general terms it is an unfavourable sign for progression. Curves which are out of balance may continue to increase in adult life.
I trust this information is helpful.

John Mayer Humiliated By Taylor Swift's 'Dear John'
It appears that country singer Taylor Swift's new song "Dear John" has really struck a chord with her former boyfriend John Mayer. Seriously, did anyone think she would walk away from that relationship (or any other, for that matter) without using it as fodder for a new tune?
The song's lyrics say, "Dear John, I see it all, now it was wrong / Don't you think 19 is too young to be played by your dark twisted games, when I loved you so?"
In response, John revealed, "It made me feel terrible. Because I didn't deserve it. I'm pretty good at taking accountability now, and I never did anything to deserve that. It was a really lousy thing for her to do."
He went on to reveal that she never spoke with him on how she felt. He said, "I never got an email. I never got a phone call. I was really caught off-guard, and it really humiliated me at a time when I'd already been dressed down. I mean, how would you feel if, at the lowest you've ever been, someone kicked you even lower?"
He was asked about the song's line about being too young to be messed with, to which he responded, "I don't want to go into that."
In addition, he put the song on blast. He said, "I will say as a songwriter that I think it's kind of cheap songwriting. I know she's the biggest thing in the world, and I'm not trying to sink anybody's ship, but I think it's abusing your talent to rub your hands together and go, 'Wait till he gets a load of this!'"

Much like humans who experience a feeling of illness while in on car trips, dogs and cats can also get a queasy stomach when traveling in the car (or even by boat or air).
Dogs show their uneasiness in various ways. The first signs of motion sickness may be a constant licking of the lips, followed by excessive drooling; yawning; whining or crying out in distress; immobility or acting afraid to move; and finally, vomiting or regurgitation. An extremely emotional dog may even urinate or defecate in the car.
There are several potential causes of motion sickness in dogs and cats. Young dogs may experience this condition more frequently because their equilibrium needs to develop a bit more as they mature. Some dogs may actually "grow out" of the condition if this is the case. The cause of motion sickness can also be emotional (behavioral) and linked to a bad travel experience in early life.
Once neurologic and behavioral causes are ruled out, the diagnosis of motion sickness can be easily made by your veterinarian. The history of your dog's reaction to traveling usually points to the problem.

About Me
I am Hilda Spann and I have been rescuing dogs and puppies and cats and kittens for 20 years. Over the years I have worked with rescues in the Twin Cities, Minnesota and in Chautauqua County, New York.
Most of my work has been in my home were I foster animals either because the rescues have no room or they want me to socialize the animals.
I come by this passion naturally. While I was growing up my parents took in stray or homeless dogs and cats. However, they also took in injured wild life and rehabilitated them. This was a great example for me.
The purpose of this website is to share my experiences and photos with you. I plan to share things I have learned, tell my stories and maybe inspire you to help animals.
If you wish to subscribe, you will receive a an email notification when I post a new blog. Feel free to comment and ask questions and I will attempt to answer you. If I have to do research, I will site my sources so you can read them first hand.
I am not a veterinarian or veterinary assistant although I have often helped in the vet's office with one of my fosters and also have had to do "veterinary assistant" type care at home such as administering medication and bandaging.

State to provide funding for LIPA solar rebates
New York State will provide $5 million in funding for LIPA's cash-strapped residential solar rebate program, which was suspended last month after its budget ran out.
LIPA will begin accepting new applications again for its popular rebate beginning Sept. 23, after the state pledged the funding through the New York State Energy Research and Development Agency. The money comes from Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo's NY-Sun program through Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative auction proceeds, LIPA and the state said in an announcement Monday.
LIPA spokesman Mark Gross said the authority expects the $5 million will maintain the program through the end of the year, though some installers said they thought it would last weeks or a month at most, given pent-up demand.
LIPA said it has seen triple the number of applications for the rebate, which has traditionally helped pay for from a third to half the cost of systems that can range to $48,000. Some 6,600 LIPA residential customers have solar panels on their roofs.
LIPA said it would reinstate a rebate of 66 cents per watt for systems, with the top rebate on the largest systems of 10 kilowatts being $6,600.
One reason for the flood of new applications is that LIPA in January began allowing leasing companies to apply for the rebates, opening the floodgates for large national companies to enter a market long dominated by smaller local installers who primarily sell systems outright. Leasing programs typically do not require a large financial outlay when the system is installed, and offer consumers discounts on their energy bills after systems are installed on their roofs.
One longtime solar installer who sells systems predicted next Monday will see a flood of rebate requests. "The 23rd is going to be a big day," said Ken Sanger, owner of Solar Dad and Sons of Smithtown. It's great to have the extra $5 million, but it's going to go to the leasing companies. What can you do? It's an unfortunate thing."
He suggested separating the pots of funding for leasing and sold systems.
Gross said LIPA will not divide the $5 million between leased and sold systems. Leasing companies favor a market approach that allows customer purchases to determine how the rebate money is allocated.
When it suspended the program Aug. 30, LIPA said it may do away with the rebate entirely depending on how sales went without it. Asked if LIPA was still considering such a move, Gross said, "There will be funding for renewables [programs] in LIPA's 2014 budget."

Amarillo, TX - If your home's air conditioning unit is due for an upgrade, it could cost you more than you bargained for.
The EPA is flexing its muscles and pushing for more eco-friendly refrigerant regulations. It is trading the old refrigerant, R22, for a new one, R 140-A, which it claims is more eco-friendly. Some customers will have to buy new air conditioner parts so they are compatible with the new R-410A refrigerant. So while it may be better for the environment, it could be worse for your wallet. With such high demand, R-22 refrigerant prices continue to skyrocket.
"Excluding repairs, it could cost anywhere from $125 to $500 depending on how many pounds of refrigerant they needed," Gary's Heating and Air Conditioning owner, Gary Ward, said.
R-410A is said to be 300 to 400 percent higher in cost. Part of the reason for the price hike is because the EPA is asking manufacturers to cut back on R22 until it is permanently phased out in 2020.

Since I've been living in Atlanta for 5 years, I've been fortinate to meet a lot of famous people. A lot of people can say that they've partied with Sean "Puffy" (or Diddy) Combs, but I honestly have. One things for sure, I haven't met everyone that I always wanted to meet.
Case in point, the subject matter of this post. Kimora Lee Simmons. Is she driving a customized Ferrari? Nope. But is this one of the people who influenced Bernie to be the best person she can be, yes. And that's why I couldn't pass the opportunity to show off Kimora and her Ferrari with New York license plates.
And before you panic, she is the only celebrity inspiration I have. Although I do love Jay-Z...

17 Nov What not to love about Quentin Crisp!?
Posted at 11:25h in Inspiration & Co.
"If at first you don't succeed, failure may be your style".
"There is no need to do any housework at all. After the first four years the dirt doesn't get any worse".
"The formula for achieving a successful relationship is simple: you should treat all disasters as if they were trivialities but never treat a triviality as if it were a disaster".
