By Georgia D. Koutouzos, J.D.
If individuals are engaged in ongoing economic or commercial activity subject to congressional regulation, then Congress may prohibit violent crime that interferes with or affects such activity, including the type of bias-motivated assaults proscribed by the Hate Crimes Act.
In an apparent case of first impression in the nation's courts, the Fourth Circuit held that the Federal Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009 can be applied to an unarmed assault of an emloyee engaged in commercial activity at his place of work. The Hate Crimes Act easily falls under Congress's broad authority to regulate interstate commerce, the appeals court ruled, reasoning that the at-issue assault of a gay employee at an Amazon fulfillment center by a coworker "interfered" with or "affected" the preparation of packages for interstate sale and shipment (U.S. v. Hill, June 13, 2019, Wynn, J.).
Attack. An employee at an Amazon packaging facility in Virginia was caught on video approaching a coworker from behind and, without provocation or warning, repeatedly punching him in the face. The victim was hospitalized for treatment, and the workspace where the incident occurred was shut down temporarily to clean blood off the floor, but Amazon did not miss any critical packaging deadlines due to the incident because other areas of the facility absorbed the work.
Bias-related motive. The perpetrator told an Amazon investigator and a local police officer that he had attacked his coworker solely because the victim was gay and because he "disrespected him because he is a homosexual." The Commonwealth of Virginia initially charged the perpetrator with misdemeanor assault and battery in state court, but the state prosecutor later requested that the United States assume prosecution of this case as a hate crime under the Federal Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009, in part because Virginia's hate crime law does not cover crimes based on sexual orientation.
Initial proceedings. The misdemeanor crime was dropped, and a federal grand jury indicted the perpetrator under the Hate Crimes Act. The defendant moved to dismiss the indictment, arguing that the statute—on its face and as applied to him—exceeded Congress's power under the U.S. Constitution's Commerce Clause. The trial court agreed and dismissed the indictment, after which the government appealed. A divided panel of the Fourth Circuit reversed and remanded the trial court's decision in an unpublished opinion that directed the lower court to reinstate the indictment. The panel concluded that it was premature to address the constitutional issues because that determination likely depended on a consideration of facts that might or might not be developed at trial.
Subsequent acquittal. On remand, the government dropped its reliance on the statutory element that the offense affected interstate or foreign commerce, instead relying exclusively on the theory that the defendant's assault of his coworker "interfered with commercial or other economic activity in which the victim [had been] engaged at the time of the incident." After a jury found the defendant guilty, he moved for acquittal on the basis that the Hate Crimes Act was unconstitutional as applied to his assault of a coworker. The trial court granted the defendant's motion, concluding that the Hate Crimes Act as applied exceeded Congress's Commerce Clause authority. Again, the government appealed the trial court's ruling.
Congressional authority. In adopting the Hate Crimes Act, Congress sought to "invoke the full scope of [its] Commerce Clause power, and to ensure that hate crimes prosecutions brought under [the Act] not be mired in constitutional litigation." To ensure that conduct criminalized under the statute would have "the requisite connection to interstate commerce," Congress adverted to several Supreme Court decisions setting forth the outer limits of Congress's authority under the Commerce Clause. Without question, the Hate Crimes Act reflects Congress's carefully considered judgment that the scope of the statute complies with Congress's authority under the Commerce Clause, as that authority has been understood by the Supreme Court, the appeals court found.
Parallels to Hobbs Act. In that respect, the government argued on appeal that, by "interfering" with the assault victim's packaging and shipping of products, the defendant's conduct substantially affected interstate commerce as that phrase has been interpreted in decisions upholding federal prosecutions for robbery and extortion under the Hobbs Act as well as arson under the applicable federal criminal law provision. Like the Hate Crimes Act, the Hobbs Act includes an interstate commerce element, which U.S. Supreme Court precedent has upheld under the Commerce Clause. Specifically, the precedent establishes that pursuant to its power under the Commerce Clause, Congress may proscribe violent conduct when such conduct interferes with or otherwise affects commerce over which Congress has jurisdiction. Hence, if individuals are engaged in ongoing economic or commercial activity subject to congressional regulation—as the Amazon employee had been at the time of the assault—then Congress also may prohibit violent crime that interferes with or affects such individuals' ongoing economic or commercial activity, including the type of bias-motivated assaults proscribed by the Hate Crimes Act.
Requisite economic activity. In the instant case, the defendant did not dispute that Congress enjoys the authority to regulate the underlying commercial activity in which the assaulted employee had been engaged at the time of the attack. Thus, because the assaulted employee's activity—preparing packages for interstate sale and shipment—unquestionably is an economic activity, it therefore followed as a simple matter of logic that a defendant who affects or attempts to affect even the intrastate preparation of packages for interstate sale and shipment affects or attempts to affect commerce over which the U.S. has jurisdiction.
Interference. The evidence introduced at trial provided a more-than-adequate basis for the jury to find that the Amazon employee's assault "interfered" with or "affected" the preparation of packages for interstate sale and shipment and, therefore, affected commerce over which the U.S. has jurisdiction. At the time of the assault, the employee was pulling boxes and packaging them for interstate shipment. As a result of the assault, the packages prepared by the employee flew into the air and onto the ground. After the assault, Amazon closed the entire area where the employee had been working so that his blood could be cleaned off the floor. And because of the assault, the employee missed the rest of his shift, necessitating that his work be absorbed by other facility employees.
Extent of impact irrelevant. The fact that the e-commerce giant was able to absorb the impact of the employee's absence without missing any key shipping deadlines and that the fulfillment center's performance during the shift impacted by the assault was in-line with its performance during other shifts did not alter that determination, the appeals court advised. On the contrary, the Supreme Court repeatedly has clarified that Congress may regulate interference with commerce, even if the effect of the interference on interstate commerce in an individual case is "minimal."
"Substantial effect" standard. Accordingly, the fact that the defendant's assault of his coworker might have minimally impacted Amazon's business—and interstate commerce generally—did not render his prosecution unconstitutional. Rather, it was enough that Congress could reasonably determine that the aggregate effect of assaults on individuals engaged in ongoing economic or commercial activity amounted to a "substantial effect" on interstate commerce, the appeals court said, adding that its conclusion in no way usurps the states' authority to regulate violent crimes—including hate crimes—unrelated to ongoing interstate commerce.
Dissent. Judge G. Steven Agee disagreed with the majority's conclusion, asserting that the defendant's prosecution under the Hate Crimes Act was improper because, among other things, the root of the activity regulated in the case—a bias-motivated punch—is not an inherently economic activity and, as such, is not within the scope of Congress's Commerce Clause authority.

Columbia, Missouri Child Relocation Attorneys
In today's mobile society, the need for a parent to relocate is common, but moves can, and often do, have a serious impact when children are involved. When you want to move with your child after the establishment of a custody order, you are required to give certain, specific notice in compliance with Missouri law.
Failure to follow this procedure can have adverse consequences, and may have an impact upon the time you spend with your child. If you have received a notice from the other parent proposing a relocation, a failure to respond promptly to that notice can function to waive any objection you may have to the proposal. The attorneys of Harper, Evans, Wade & Netemeyer are experienced with divorce and family law, including the requirements that Missouri law imposes on a parent who wants to relocate.
We Can Help With Your Relocation And Child Custody Issues
A variety of circumstances that create a need for relocation can arise. A parent often needs to make the difficult decision to relocate further away from his or her children's other parent. There are some common reasons that lead to the need to relocate. Some of those issues are:
- Remarriage
- Moving closer to family
- Starting a new career
- Being confronted with health concerns
These common issues are some that Missouri courts may recognize as providing a reasonable basis for relocating with your children.
Hire An Experienced Family Law Attorney to Understand The Required Process
Missouri statutes set forth two options that a parent seeking child relocation can follow. Sometimes the court is involved, and sometimes it does not have to be. Sometimes, a post-divorce modification is necessary. To ensure you are complying with the law, it is best to contact an attorney. The two paths to relocation are:
- The process of relocation without court involvement allows a party to move at the end of 60 days after notifying any party with custody or visitation rights, unless after receiving proper notification, a timely objection is filed within 30 days by the opposing party. According to Missouri Statute § 452.377, the notice must include:
- The intended new residence, including the specific address and mailing address, if known, and if not known, the city
- The home telephone number of the new residence, if known
- The date of the intended move or proposed relocation
- A brief statement of the specific reasons for the proposed relocation of a child, if applicable
- A proposal for a revised schedule of custody or visitation with the child, if applicable
- When the court is involved, relocation is approved or denied after a trial and objections by the nonmoving parent.
Let An Experienced Family Lawyer Assist With Your Relocation
If you are a parent who wishes to relocate with your child, or are objecting to the relocation attempt of your child, it is important to contact the attorneys at Harper, Evans, Wade & Netemeyer. Our attorneys can help you navigate the process and avoid penalties, including expensive litigation and possible criminal charges.

'Parc Disponible' is a miniature nature enclosure designed by Stefan Gyzl. 'Parc Disponible' is styled to give city residents a place to relax and enjoy nature privately.
Stefan Gyzl's design would be a 15-square-meter enclosure that is completely surrounded with vegetation. Users can sign up and reserve a 30-minute spot in the park online. Having your own personal park would be a great getaway for individuals living in a crowded city.
Implications - There is a large number of consumers within today's urban populations that find themselves feeling highly disconnected from the environment. Businesses that are able to rebuild this connection or provide comparable experiences will experience high rates of success. Urban consumers will flock to products with which they can encounter the great outdoors within the limits of a city.

|Love with Food: August
I recently learned about this wonderful program called Love with Food. Love with Food is a program where its members receive a box every month with about 8 deluxe samples of gourmet goodies. It's only $10/month and for each box that Love with Food sells, it donates a meal to a food bank. So not only do you get a box of wonderful treats, your money goes to help fight hunger here in America.
When I heard about this program, I knew it was something that I would love to participate in. I received my first box for the month of August. The theme this month was Travelin' Treats, so I received a remixed (and upgraded) version of airplane snacks. I'm currently on jury duty and these treats have been helping me get through the long hours of waiting and waiting.
Here is what I received this month from Love with Food:
- Sconza Candies Coconut Toffee Peanuts. Toffee is one of my favorite things in the world, so I opened these right away! The coconut was a perfect complement to the toffee and the peanuts. Easily my favorite thing in the box-- I'm going to have to get some more of these!
- East Shore Skinny Dipping Pretzels and Key Lime with Ginger Mustard. The pretzels tasted like normal pretzels to me and I dipped them in the key lime ginger mustard. I'm not a huge fan of mustard (coming around through) or ginger, but I love key limes. It's a little sweet and a little tart. I think it would probably be a good mustard to use for mustard chicken.
- Sun Flour Baking Company Vegan Lemony Lemon and Peanut Butter Cookies. These cookies were good and flavorful. I preferred the peanut butter cookie over the lemon because it had more flavor. I didn't think the lemon one had as much lemony flavor.
- The Ginger People's Gin Gins Super Strength Ginger Caramel Candy. Like mentioned above, I'm not too crazy about ginger so I was really apprehensive about trying this one. Reading "super strength" and ginger together had me a little in fear, but it actually was pretty good and I think the caramel flavor helped it from being overly ginger-y.
- Tangerine Glee Gum. These are cute and remind me of Chiclets! While I enjoyed these, they did taste a little waxy to me.
- Cherry Bay Orchards Dried Montgomery Cherries. This is the only thing I haven't tried yet, but you can't really go wrong with dried fruit, right? I'm saving these for Monday when I have another day of jury day ahead of me. It will be a good morning snack!
Note: I did not receive any money from this article. I'm a paying member who loves the idea of this program that in turn helps communities!

Who Gets The Washcloth?
"He quoted a proverb: 'Can a blind man guide a blind man?' Wouldn't they both end up in a ditch? An apprentice doesn't lecture the master. The point is to be careful who you follow as your teacher.
"It's easy to see a smudge on your neighbour's face and be oblivious to the ugly sneer on your own. Do you have the nerve to say, 'Let me wash your face for you,' when your own face is distorted by contempt? It's this I-know-better-than-you mentality again, playing a holier-than-thou part instead of just living your own part. Wipe that ugly sneer off your own face and you might be fit to offer a washcloth to your neighbour.'" Luke 6:39-42 (The Message).
Isn't it amazing how right we all think we are! The world is full of blind guides who think they can see, and are leading blind people into ditches everywhere.
Jesus warned His hearers to be careful who they followed. The scribes and Pharisees, the religious "experts" of His day, fitted His description very well — blind guides who thought they were right, so right in fact that they were ready to destroy truth for the sake of their right-ness.
Take, for example, the scientific fraternity that teaches the ridiculous theory of evolution as proven fact when every intricate detail of creation (a word they freely use, yet deny the Creator), screams out the truth that there has to be a Designer. Yet most of the people in the educated world believe they are right!
And where has that got us? Into the ditch of utter moral darkness! To accept evolution as fact and follow its ramifications is to be just like the apes we are supposed to have evolved from, devoid of common sense and reason. It takes a huge leap of faith into a deep, dark void of foolishness to believe that, in spite of the fact that every simple thing humans make needs a design, the whole of creation just "happened" by chance! Really?
How can we be safeguarded from the boffins who insist they are right regardless of the facts? Weigh up the evidence! In the Apostle Paul's day, the Bereans were applauded for their good sense. "Now the Bereans were of more noble character than those in Thessalonica, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true." Acts 17:11 (NIV).
What does it take to weigh up the evidence and come to an informed conclusion? It takes a humble admission that I don't know everything, I can't explain everything but someone else does, and I'll take the trouble to find out from an authoritative source.
Jesus laid the problem at the door of our innate human pride. We are so blind to our own pitiful ignorance that we dare to sneer at others and offer to wash the spots off their faces when our own are blotched with contempt because we think we know better.
Test your own heart. What lies underneath those judgmental, critical thoughts, even if they are never uttered? "I'm not like that! I don't do that! I'm better than you! I know more than you do! I'm right and you're wrong!"
Humility is a great leveller and it opens the door to many things that pride excludes us from — wisdom, knowledge and understanding, friendship, peace and harmony with others, just for a start and, most important of all, God's grace. "All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another because, "God opposes the proud but shows favour to the humble." 1 Peter 5:5b (NIV).
There is one source of truth upon which we can stand with great confidence, the Word of God. Truth needs no defence. It needs only to be spoken. It will endure while lies, false teaching, and wrong thinking will all disappear because they have no substance. The Scriptures admonish us to test everything and to hold fast to that which is good.
Are you a fool or do you do that?

Last week, we boldly postulated that Maserati's forthcoming Detroit-built SUV would in fact wear the Levante name instead of the brand's forthcoming sub-Quattroporte sedan, and now the firm has confirmed just that. At the risk of raising the ire of purists, Maserati has decided to assign the storied Ghibli name to the new four-door.
- Comparison Tests: Porsche Panamera S vs. BMW 750i, Maserati Quattroporte Sport GT S
- First Drive: Maserati GranTurismo MC
- Short Take: 2009 Maserati Quattroporte S
For a company considered by most to be a niche manufacturer, Maserati is about to launch a relative whirlwind of new products. In addition to the Levante and Ghibli, the new Quattroporte is due to make its debut at the Detroit auto show next January. The maker has previously said that it hopes to produce 50,000 vehicles annually by 2015.

Share market closes higher and adds 0.4-point gain to $24.50; Dow futures rally 4% after Fed pushes down interest rates
The Dow Jones industrial average closed higher on Monday amid a rally in energy, technology and other se더킹카지노rvices stocks.
The Dow had risen as high as 18,94jarvees.com7.69 on Sept. 15 before trading down as much as 23%, according to FactSet data.
"The Dow has been gaining since late August and the market has begun to respond to the Fed's policy decisions. We're seeing the effects of these decisions," said Michael Pachter, market analyst for Jefferies & Co.
"The markets are beginning to take shape and companies appea바카라r to be ready for these policy changes. If this pattern continues, markets will probably be on an incline to their highest levels since late August of 2014 until the beginning of Q4."
Futures prices for the S&P 500 index of stocks fell as much as 1.4%, according to FactSet data.
Investors cheered the data as the market continues to move higher under Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen, though they also expected it to be a "pitch-black" holiday weekend for the broader market.
"The market has become more disciplined and accommodative in terms of market behavior," said Jim O'Donnell, chief market strategist at Wedbush Securities Inc. "These changes in policy continue to serve us well."
U.S. shares extended their gains to a 5-1/2-year high on Monday.
Energy, technology and other services stocks recorded gains after the Federal Reserve on Monday said its central bank will begin the gradual process of tightening its monetary policy.
The benchmark S&P 500 gained nearly 1% to 2,717.21; technology and other stocks gained 0.4%.

Mr. Hernández said the project would be an important step in the fight against deforestation, but in a statement on the official Facebook page of the government, Mr. Hernández declared, "Let it come to an end."
He accused the government of blocking access to the project because the area of the forest was "poorly developed." The government refused to say whether it had any connection with Mr. Hernández's opposition parties.
In a comment posted on the official website of a major construction company, a Mr. Ramiro Montoya, Mr. Hernández said that the land under construction "is an area already under threat to the environment and the people of Central America."

"It is a matter of conce우리카지노rn for the environment and local people in the region that an important project for construction could also threaten them," Mr. Hernández said in his statement, referring to the project's proposed 2-mile-wide canal across the area where the region's indigenous culture was discovered.

The area, which lies across a river from the country's borders with Honduras and Guatemala, is one of the least developed parts of Central America. In the 1950s and '60s, large oil and gas operations were completed in the area. But a large dam in 2008 was built to divert water from the area, causing widespread destruction in a region already suffering from dry conditions.
With this new dam, the government sought to protect the natural beauty of the forest but also sought to build what critics called a giant, expensive and costly hydroelectric project.
By 2015, there were almost three million square feet of new concrete and steel dam walls covering an area covering about 600 square miles, and it was already one of the most expensive dam projects in Central America, with the $36-million cost forecast to grow to $100 million per yea
Mining company says train charge proposals are unfair to miners and must be rejected
R바카라사이트ailway giant Tata Group is calling for a major rethink of its planned plans to build a superfast rail link to Mumbai via Kolkata, a controversial proposal that could see millions lose their jobs and hurt the lives of millions.
Tata, the world's largest private sector employer, s바카라사이트ays plans to link the city to the south by the Kolkata-Meghalaya Railway (KMYR) will create tens of thousands of jobs. It has also proposed a rail bypass for 40km along the southern coastal stretch of the KAYAT-Meghalaya expressway (the only high speed expressway in India) and proposes a new line for the KMYR through the city. In Augusjarvees.comt, the Indian Railways also launched a consultation process for a high speed train link to the city, which has been given the green light.
But the project is a polarising one. The rail industry, led by state-owned Tata, is opposed to the project, with some experts arguing that the idea of having such a rapid railway link can improve productivity rates by reducing the time spent waiting for trains. They say the cost would be too high and would benefit a few small towns on the eastern fringe of the city where few commuters would want a direct railway link to Mumbai.
"What the railways should be focusing on is creating more jobs to help boost the growth," says Ashish Chaudhari, head of the rail industry research at Ernst & Young. "It will not bring much benefits to Mumbai as a whole. But it will benefit a few small towns, especially Kolkata, where some of the biggest players are based."
Other Indian Railways executives who have attended the Mumbai meetings include Pune-based Ajay Kothari, who runs an engineering firm that designs trains, and Pune-based Ashish Sharma, executive vice president of engineering at Tata Group. Kothari has taken part in the meetings of the Railway Council and the Tata Institute of Design, which are now under way to find a suitable replacement for the existing rail yards. Sharma is an executive vice president of Tata Consultancy Services, the design services firm with a $4bn sales division that does work on railways and is based in Mumbai.
At the meetings of the Railway Council on Monday, officials plan to draw up a list of demands that will be included in any decision on the rail link with Kolkata in return for India's investment in the new Mumbai infrastructur
Factbox gordon brown has joined the government on the frontbench
He is understood to have been given the job in a cabinet reshuffle, which caused concern among fellow Conservatives who believed that he could prove a divisive figure in the party.
He would be at the forefront of the Conservative manifesto, as well as being appointed as a policy adviser to Mr Hammond's new cabinet team.
The Cabinet Office statement said: "The Government wishes to express our sincere congratulations to Gordon Brown for his appointment as Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer following the reshuffle."
They said it was understood the decision was taken to move Mr Brown from Downing Street and into the Treasury, despite the Labour leader's repeated requests that he remain as shadow chancellor.
Mr Brown is in charge of tax affairs while the Prime Minister has the power to dismiss him on grounds of being out of date.
He is understood to have been told that he could serve until 2 October, following a reshuffle in which some junior figures were dismissed and a senior figure who stood down was promoted.
Labour 바카라sources described the appointment of Mr Brown as "a great coup" that would boost morale.
Shadow Home바카라 Secretary Andy Burnham said: "Gordon Brown has proved to be one of Britain's most respected and successful cabinet ministers, and is an important ally for the new government.
"His appointment means Jeremy Corbyn will no longer have to rely on the shadow chancellor to ensure his policy has a mandate.
"It's great to see Gordon go into government with Jeremy Corbyn as leader, we're all in the coalition. It's clear the Conservative party will get the job done."
Labour's shadow chancellor John McDonnell said: "The fact that Brown won't have a Cabinet post shows he didn't understand how the system works. People are very disappointed with him."
His appointment is one of more than 60 changes from Tory ministers to Labour frontbenchers in what has become an unprecedented coup.
Allowing frontbenchers to make policy has been ruled out of order in recent months by David Cameron for a variety of political reasons.
It comes amid the government's internal chaos and as MPs face their own leadership contest over how to deal with their crisis.
The party is under pressure to create a parliamentary majority to force through a spending deal early next year. Labour is also expected to win the next general election with a surge of support from the working class under its banner.

Rallies in hong kong over beijing's education reforms are being planned
We may yet see another protest in support of teachers under the headline 'Education reform not a national priority', wit카지노 검증h a number of다낭 크라운 카지노 groups calling for a nationwide strike to raise awareness about the issue.
The National Education Association of China is holding a nationwide rally on June 7.
It is due to meet with representatives of parents and local education administrators, schools, unions and employers in the capital, to address concerns and discuss how to increase classroom and school operations and funding in China, while reducing or delaying school closures by teachers.
The country has an enormous number of poor students. In 2007, 46.6 per cent of Chinese children aged two and under had school grades of A or better, with 46 per cent of those in the lowest-ranked secondary schools. However, as many as 13 per cent of China's children are expected to drop out by the time they leave high school.
In 2015, there were 11 million fewer pupils in the lowest-ranking schools, leading to the creation of 1.2m empty seats in more-well-known second마카오 카지노 여자ary schools across the country. Many schools are underfunded and understaffed.
An estimated 25 per cent of China's public secondary school students are from rural families.
A teacher with the China Federation of Secondary Education teachers' union told the Financial Times, "We have to do things we don't have a say in."
"This will create a big backlash among the public," another teacher said.
"Some of the kids in low-performing schools will come here, and they will be treated as if they have abandoned their education. And that is how the system should be organised," he said.
On June 9 a petition calling for teacher protests to be held on Sunday evening in Beijing was posted on Weibo, China's social media site.
More than 6,000 signatures were posted by users over the course of two days, calling for a nationwide teacher strike at 4pm local time, calling for the school system to receive a better amount of funding and providing details of how to hold the protests.
The petition was deleted the following day, after it had attracted more than 2700 signatures at the time of writing.
Teacher unions have previously voiced support for teachers' strikes. But the Teachers' Federation of China (FFC) has in recent years also advocated for student rights.
Interview corey anderson:
[The man] began to shout that he wanted to shoot my kids and my family as well, then went on to claim that he could shoot a child in the abdomen if needed. He told me that if I told the truth that I was an intruder to all of those homes, he would get my children. He also said that he could kill my son if he had to. He claimed that he came into one of my children's bedrooms.
Corey a인터넷카지노nderson claims this man followed her home as she put away her housekey and then "banged on the door o실시간바카라사이트f my home". At that point, Corey anderson was threatened that her 2 kids and her 4 grandchildren will die.
When Corey anderson said that a neighbor was calling 911 due to someone breaking into a home and then screaming for help, this stranger replied:
"Well, you have done it."
The two then became angry and they had a scuffle with the man who said that Corey anderson was just acting crazy.
Corey anderson later filed a report with the police department and told them that the man "had hit her and tried to run her off the street. He had to run her by me and she had to fight him off because he threatened her children."
This man went on to state in a police report that he had gone through several windows prior to this and shot the 2 kids as well as the 4th generation grandchild. He then called 911 and stated that Corey anderson had jumped out his window and tried to attack him.
A friend of Corey anderson posted the entire story on Facebook and stated, "You never know about things that happe천안출장만남n when you are under stress. I was having trouble adjusting in and out of my house for like 2 years, now I feel confident to start a new life."
We reached out to the police department for further information on this case.

In recent years, there has been a much greater emphasis on green, eco-friendly and organic products. This hasn't fully translated into clothing choices. However, there is a wider selection now available, especially in infant and children's products. This is largely because of the media attention devoted to the practices of growing and producing textiles, which use pesticides and fertilizers in the growth of plants like cotton and in the harsh chemicals used in the finishing and dying of cloth.
While adults should be concerned with clothing safety, infants and children are of even more concern given their greater health vulnerabilities and higher potential for long term issues arising from early exposure to chemicals and toxins. First there are physiological conditions that make children more susceptible to issues. Specifically infants, they have a higher skin surface area to body weight ratio than adults. This means that absorption of toxins into the skin is potentially more damaging and irritating. Children also breathe in more air relative to their body weight than adults. Many non-organic fabrics exhaust harmful fumes that when inhaled, it can be particularly harmful to developing immune and central nervous systems.
In addition to health considerations, organic fabrics are much better for the environment. Over one-quarter of the world's pesticides are used on cotton. The long-term exposure to health issues are only now coming to greater light as the practices of using pesticides only began in the middle of the last century. Organic practices use sustainable farming and cultivation techniques that cut pesticide use down to almost nothing. This also has the effect of benefiting water quality. Pesticides are known ground water contaminates according to the EPA and it affects more than half the country's population.
The fabric quality of organic baby clothing is also superior to that of chemically finished products and that of synthetics. Organic cotton fibers are stronger as they are not exposed to chemicals. The same goes for hemp, which is incredibly durable (the first US flag was made from hemp fabric).
Locating organic clothing is becoming easier too. Many specialty retail clothing stores carry 100% organic clothing and many infant and baby clothing retailers are beginning to stock varieties. Part of the growth is due to the new and fashionable designs in the marketplace. Unfortunately, organic cotton and hemp baby clothing was not always the most colorful or chic. This has changed as designers like Ralph Lauren and Donna Karen have incorporated the fabric into their lines. Better organic dying techniques have also lead to brighter color choices.
By far, the easiest way to find organic clothing for infants, children, and adults is online. One must be careful in checking the provenance and labeling of clothing purchased online. Don't assume that everything found on an "organic" clothing website is 100% certified organic. Hemp is a textile that many simply assume to be organic. However, depending on the way the fabric is finished, it can be laden with chemicals. So read carefully and if you are in doubt, contact the retailer or manufacturer to gain assurance.
There are lots of great reasons to purchase organic clothing – eco-friendly, sustainable, good for the planet, and safer for babies, children, and adults. And with more choices, designs, and styles available, it is easier than ever to find the perfect outfit.
Going for the green option for your baby and child, bamboo clothing is available to you in the UK, organic baby clothes are just a click away.

Businesses today are increasing their revenue through online sales. An e-commerce website compliments a brick and mortar store through its ability to offer products for sale at all times, from any device.
There are many options when considering an e-commerce website. A few of the optional components involved are described below.
PayPal is a great e-commerce option for a startup store. For each transaction, PayPal keeps a small percentage of the sale, but there are no ongoing or monthly fees.
Online stores can be set up with a merchant account and payment gateway to accept online payments. Merchant accounts are bank or other financial institution accounts that accept credit and debit card transactions. Payment gateways authorize credit and debit cards for e-businesses and connect the online store to the merchant account. There are many companies that offer both of these services, and TeamWTI helps our clients find the best solution. Both the merchant account and the payment gateway typically require small monthly fees and per-transaction fees to the merchant account and/or the payment gateway provider.
An SSL (Secure Socket Layer) Certificate is highly recommended with the implementation of an online store. These certificates provide the store with an extra layer of security when site users interact with the website. SSL certificates will provide an online store with an https:// URL and a site seal stating that the store is secure.
When it comes to e-commerce, our Team WTI web design and development specialists will work with you to ensure that your online store works to enhance your business.

Sony A7R II: Game changer?
I had to crawl out from under my rock to comment on this! There are reports that the new Sony A7R II will autofocus just as well with Canon EF lenses and a Metabones adapter as it will with native lenses. If this is true it's simply amazing, I know a LOT of people who love Sony bodies but stick with Canon because of the lenses and this could finally change all that. I'm not yet 100% convinced because in the past the Canon lens/Metabones combination hasn't yielded impressive results even with the Sony bodies that have phase detect pixels but there's a lot of talk of thing different this time.
Even if this isn't true the camera looks amazing, easily the best mirrorless camera yet made, at least on paper! If the autofocus situation turns out to be true this could be the turning point, the beginning of the end for DSLRs!
I certainly won't be able to afford one but maybe if I'm lucky and this turns out to be true then the technology that made it possible will trickle down into the APS-C bodies, if not I guess I'll have to pick an A7R II up in about 5 years when it's finally in my price range!
As Rishi at dpreview just pointed out to me, the A7R II gives phase detect when using the Sony LA-E3 adapter and A mount DSLR lenses. That's the adapter that DOESN'T have a mirror inside and until not hasn't allowed you to use the on sensor phase detect with Sony lenses. Something has been done differently with this new body to allow the LA-E3 to work with the on sensor phase detect.
Because the Metabones adapter basically mimics the protocol the of the LA-E3 it means that Canon lenses will also be able to use the on sensor phase detect pixels! This is MASSIVE news and is likely to shake things up in a serious way! Canon users will now have access to what is undeniably a superior sensor architecture and without a penalty in focus performance!
Fingers crossed that this is as amazing a development as it appears to be!

For a comparison, this next clip shows a normal changeover between male and female Oystercatchers. This bird seems a lot less reluctant to leave the nest...
Things have slowed down on the migrant bird front. The Pied Flycatcher stayed for two days but has now moved on. This morning 70 Canada Geese flew in off the sea and this afternoon a Grey Heron flew over the beach only to be mobbed by Herring Gulls.
In botanical news, we recently found a new plant for the Point: Cow Parsley.
A couple of weeks ago we had a very special visitor on Blakeney Point. We were thrilled to be visited by Professor Francis Oliver's grandson, Stephen. Francis Oliver was a botanist from the University College London (UCL) who spent much time studying the vegetation of the Point. Professor Oliver played a big part in the acquisition of the Point in 1912 recognising the need to protect its wildlife and habitats.

In other news; on our respective days off all three of us went to the Norfolk Broads and all saw Swallowtails. Matt took this photograph at the RSPB's Strumpshaw Fen:Swallowtails can sometimes be seen at the National Trust's Horsey estate, near Great Yarmouth. It is well worth a visit if you are nearby.

Social Crawlytics is a tool which was developed a few months ago by Yousaf Sekand (@ysekand). The tool allows you to crawl a website and get a report on the social statistics of that website on social media: how much were specific pages shared on different social networks? It will give you some great insights.
Yousaf now has released a new version of the tool, which is cleaner, even easier to work with than before and much faster. And the basis reports are still very much free. There are also paid plans which will give you
How does it work?
The tool is very easy to use. You just go to the site, login with your Twitter account and you are set to go for the basic plan.
You type in your website details, schedule your plan and off you go. Now all you do is wait until he tool is done.
As a result you get an overview page with all the statistics of the site. Take a look at the statistics dashboard page for State of Search:
What we can conclude from these results is that, not unexpectedly, State of Search is most social on Twitter. But interesting is that Google+ and Linkedin seem to be doing a lot better than we thought, even better than Facebook. And to be honest, we haven't spent that much time optimising our things for these two platforms. We should maybe work on that!
Why is it so cool?
So why is this tool so amazing? Why are several people around the web highly enthusiastic about this tool? The answer is simple: within just a few clicks you have an overview of what content is most 'social', and not just on Twitter, on multiple social networks.
Yousaf Sekander himself puts it as follows:
"Social Crawlytics is a unique crawler that enables digital marketers to analyse their competitor's social footprint. It allows you to not only count social shares across an entire site but it also gives you a list of the top most shared authors, the ability to schedule reports and track the changes all within a single dashboard."
The combination of social elements with the easy accessible site and the opportunity to also easily track competitors makes it a unique tool. On top of that it is the combination between SEO and Social Media, which we love here on State of Search off course, and it is very easy to use.
What are the new features?
The renewed tool has some nice new elements to it. There is obviously the new design, which is much cleaner and much more accessible.
Next to the new design Yousaf made some adjustments and additions to the tool as well. It now for example has authorship detection, which will allow you to see who are the most 'social' popular authors on the site. As you can see here, for State of Search that would be… eh me.
This list is based on the popularity of the posts which are written by these authors, which is why Lisa is so high up there, she may not have written too much, what she's written has been shared a lot.
Another new feature is that you can now do scheduled monitoring, which means that if you set up a campaign you can much easier track it.
Another change is page level metrics, not a small change this. It shows us exactly how specific pages are doing, which off course is incredibly valuable.
Finally Yousaf tells us an API is on the way in the next couple of weeks.
Some nice stats
The first time I saw the tool and got access from Yousaf he gave me and a few others unlimited access. He shouldn't have done that, because off course we immediately started testing the 'big sites' like the BBC and CNN. That off course gave a lot of load to the server, but we did get some interesting information out of it.
This time around Yousaf checked the major Tech sites for us. Now you can see the social results from State of Search above. Those are 'ok', we probably can do a lot better, especially if we compare it to the 'big ones' in Tech: Next Web, TechCrunch and Econsultancy. They have stunning amounts of social sharing.
What we can note here is that TechCrunch, even though the site has lost a lot of 'power' in the industry, still has the most shares by far. Mostly from Twitter, like with the others. This probably has a lot to do with the huge amount of content on the site.
What is also interesting is that where news sites like TechCrunch and the Next Web get a lot out of Twitter and Facebook, a site like e-Consultancy, which focusses a lot more on education, has a lower number on Facebook and a much higher number on a site like Linkedin.
Finally the high number of social shares on Stumbleupon is interesting for TechCrunch. Again, this must have something to do with the huge amount of (older) content on the site.
Conclusion: do competitive analysis
The tool has a lot in it, especially interesting stuff when it comes to competitive analysis. You can analyse how your competitors are doing in the social sphere, which platform is interesting enough and adjust your strategy based on this kind of information.
Well done Yousaf!
Free credits
So would you like to have a play with it? Do it! And Yousaf was kind enough to give anyone who tweets about this post 3000 extra credits!
Tweet the following and Yousaf will grant you the extra credits!

Ky. tracks seek to add Sept. races
September traditionally Turfway's time
Some Kentucky racetracks are suddenly elbowing one another for racing dates in 2013.
Most notably, Churchill Downs is competing for September racing traditionally allotted to Turfway Park in northern Kentucky.
Some prominent horsemen says the squabble is a sign of Kentucky's struggles to stay competitive with out-of-state tracks offering higher purses sweetened with revenue from slot machines.
Trainer Dale Romans said Tuesday that September racing could be a winner for Churchill Downs. The Louisville track traditionally has live racing in the spring and in a fall meet run mostly in November.
It's up to the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission to award race dates for the tracks. The commission meets later this month.
Kentucky Downs track at Franklin is asking for three racing dates next March, also encroaching on Turfway's traditional racing.

Writing for the Daily Beast, Joel Kotkin on Pope Francis's Laudato Si:
With Francis's pontifical blessing , the greens have now found a spiritual hook that goes beyond the familiar bastions of the academy, bureaucracy, and the media and reaches right into the homes and hearts of more than a billion practicing Catholics. No potential coalition of interests threatened by a seeming tsunami of regulation—from suburban homeowners and energy firms to Main Street businesses—can hope to easily resist this alliance of the unlikely.
That may (yet) overstate the impact that the Pope, raging against the Devil one day, against air conditioning the next, may actually have, but it is a reminder of just how foolish it was of Speaker Boehner to invite Francis to speak to a joint session of Congress. It's true that the encyclical had yet to appear when the invitation went out, but the fact that Francis is a profoundly political pope was no secret, and nor was the nature of his essentially Peronist politics.
But back to Kotkin:
There are of course historical parallels to this kind of game-changing alliance. In the late Roman Empire and then throughout the first Middle Ages, church ideology melded with aristocratic and kingly power to assure the rise of a feudal system. Issuing indulgences for the well-heeled, the Church fought against the culture of hedonism and unrestrained individualism that Francis has so roundly denounced. The Church also concerned itself with the poor, but seemed not willing to challenge the very economic and social order that often served to keep them that way.
Historically Medievalism represented a "steady state" approach to human development, seeking stability over change. Coming after the achievements of the classical age—with its magnificent engineering feats as well as an often cruel, highly competitive culture—the Middle Ages ushered in centuries of slow growth, with cities in decline and poverty universal for all but a few.
There's something else though. The medieval church's preference for 'stability' may or may not have been influenced by its perception that this was somehow better for the poor than any alternative (I doubt it), but it did have quite a bit to do with its realization that innovation and affluence represented a dangerous threat to its position in the intellectual, political and social order.
That, I suspect, is something that bothers Francis, who is no free spirit.
Kotkin's article contains so much that it seems invidious just to post a few extracts (read the whole thing, really), but here goes:
What makes the Pope's position so important—after all, the world is rejecting his views on such things as gay marriage and abortion—is how it jibes with the world view of some of the secular world's best-funded, influential, and powerful forces. In contrast to both Socialist and capitalist thought, both the Pope and the greens are suspicious about economic growth itself, and seem to regard material progress as aggression against the health of the planet….
… Given their lack of faith in markets or people, the green movement has become ever less adept at adjusting to the demographic, economic, and technological changes that have occurred since the '70s. Huge increases in agricultural productivity and the recent explosion in fossil fuel energy resources have been largely ignored or downplayed; the writ remains that humanity has entered an irreversible "era of ecological scarcity" that requires strong steps to promote "sustainability."
…Ultimately the green platform seeks not to increase living standards as we currently understand them (particularly in high income countries) but to purposely lower them. This can be seen in the calls for "de-development," a phrase employed by President Obama's science advisor John Holdren for all "overdeveloped" advanced countries, in part to discourage developing countries from following a similar path.
So Prince Charles, another individual whose, so to speak, business flourishes best in 'steady state' societies, turns out, Kotkin explains, to be something of a fan of the slums of Bombay, which apparently offer more "durable ways of living" for the developing world than those available in the suburbanized west, a comment steeped in the revolting blend of ignorance, condescension and smugness all too typical of the heir to the British throne. May the Queen live to be 120!
Kotkin does, however, note the encouraging (and entertaining) prospect that the ideas of the self-proclaimed 'Pope of the poor' will be rejected by, well, the poor:
Trying to sell anti-growth green ideology may prove a tougher in the developing world. Not surprising then that, no matter what the rhetoric that is adopted by the climate conference to be held in Paris this month, critical figures like India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi will not restrict building new coal plants—the country has tripled coal imports three fold since 2008. In the sweltering cities of the subcontinent, moves to ban air conditioning are simply not good politics. And Chinese President Xi Jinping, the leader of the world's largest carbon emitter and user of coal, clearly has no real intention of reversing rapid development, based in large part fossil fuels, till 2030, when reasonably priced alternatives may well be generally available.
And then there's this:
Architect Austin Williams suggests that sustainability, the new prayer word of spiritual greenism, "is an insidiously dangerous concept, masquerading as progress." It poses an agenda that restricts industry, housing and incomes in a manner that severely undermines social aspiration. Indeed, Williams argues, greens and their allies—now including the world's most important church—have created "a poverty of ambition." Williams suggests the common green view is that humanity is "destructive and in need of reduction" rather than "a source of innovation, creativity, imagination and socialization."
That is a profoundly anti-humane and, yes, dispiriting view. That Pope Francis has chosen to come so close to it says a great deal, little of it good.

Cairo Marriott Hotel & Omar Khayyam Casino is located in Cairo, in trendy district Az-Zamalek situated west of the city center, on an island in the Nile river. The hotel is composed from historic part of Gazira Palace, which was built in 1869, and the newer part-the twin towers located on the right and the left side of the palace.
In the part of Gezira, there are antique interiors with stylish furniture and fittings, in which conferences, business meetings, banquets, glamorous dinners and wedding ceremonies occur. In the newer part- there are comfortable rooms and suites with balconies. There are many restaurants and a casino on the premises of the hotel.
From the hotel rooms, beautiful views are spread onto the Nile and Cairo center as well as on the beautiful hotel gardens and swimming pool.
The hotel was built at the opening of the Suez Canal. It entertained important people from all over the world, who marked the ceremony of opening the Canal.
Over the years European monarchs lived in the hotel, including Empress Eugene, the wife of Napoleon III. The hotel was also the first place where Opera Aida by Verdi was played.
In the past, wedding ceremonies of many Egyptian monarchs and dignitaries took place here. Some of these celebrations lasted for 40 days! Up till now, it is a very trendy place among wealthy Egyptians for having wedding ceremonies there.
It is worth mentioning that during War World 1 in 1915, the hotel was used as a wartime hospital. There was Number 2 Australian General Hospital which had to cope with a huge number of casualties from the Battle of Gallipoli (Turkey).
Currently the hotel is frequently visited by tourists from all over the world due to its unique location and tourist attractions placed in the hotel's nearby neighborhood.
Our guests will be accommodated in deluxe garden rooms or deluxe Nile view rooms. At extra cost it is possible to book any type of room offered by the hotel.
