Predictive Analytics:
What is predictive analytics? At its core, predictive analytics involves analyzing established data patterns to predict future behavior and events.
Predictive Analytics in Marketing:
For marketers, these predictions mean analyzing marketing data for patterns of buyer engagement and behavior. Predictive analytics are used to determine customer responses or purchases, as well as promote cross-sell opportunities. Predictive models help businesses attract, retain and grow their most profitable customers. Using developments in machine learning and predictive analysis, it is now easier than ever to identify hidden opportunity in your customer data – and the best bit is that the opportunities are huge.
How you can use Predictive Analytics in B2B Marketing:
- Expanded Social Media Presence: Social media utilizes predictive data to see what people want to see and read more about. In other words, predictive analytics can be used to optimize a company's use of social media. It means that companies can see trends or phrases from their predictive analytics marketing and use it on their desired social media platforms.
- Generate and Nurture Leads with More Personalized Messages.
- Accuracy: With B2B sales, which tend to have more established marketing patterns, the predictive calculations of machine learning tools are incredibly accurate. Similar businesses have similar needs and therefore the machine draws on existing data that, in turn, leads to more accurate predictions.
- The scope of Unknown Opportunity: B2B organizations operating in a broad range of industries many are more likely to find gaps in their marketing strategy. Predictive analytics identifies broad gaps in a company's presumed customer profile.
- More Sales: Predictive Marketers are more likely to report revenue growth at rates higher than the industry average.
Similarly, Predictive Analytics with Helo Marketing Cloud helps you with the benefits of knowing your target audience and thereby you can build the right content for the right person and flash it at the right time. This can also help you plan your marketing strategy effectively. Here, Vivaconnect's latest core product – Helo Marketing Cloud comes out to be a bliss for B2B marketers.

Lead generation, brand awareness, customer acquisition, feedback, surveys, customer service notification, contests, loyalty and media effectiveness tracking is all a cake walk with Helo SMS Campaigns.
The Challenge of Predictive Analytic
Predictive analytics is the weakest data skill among B2B marketers, their team, and their organization. It's funny, but most of the organizations still do not use it. Analytics is basically getting closer to your customers, so close that you can tell them what they will need well before they realize it themselves. It's clear that marketers need to stop merely discussing the merits of using data to make accurate predictions and begin to actively do something about it
How Helo Marketing Cloud can Help
While predictive analytics represent an invaluable and essential tool for developing an effective marketing strategy, finding those with the skills to execute this kind of data analysis represents a considerable challenge. To help make the work of predictive analytics more accessible, Helo Marketing cloud has developed an exhaustive real-time analytical dashboard showcasing campaign performance and user behavior based on measurable data, thus providing future business insights for re-targeting.
Helo Marketing Cloud dashboard provides a user-friendly-interface designed to consolidate an otherwise confused clutter of disparate data sources in a single display.

"Equal pay for equal work. It's common sense. It's also overdue. Let's close the gap and let's do it now."
-Vice President Joe Biden
Winston Smith
When President John F. Kennedy signed the Equal Pay Act of 1963 into law it was to set the stage for pay equality throughout America. Historically a pay gap has existed between men and women and the Equal Pay Act was created to try to rectify this problem. The assigned purpose of the act was to ensure that women would be able to receive equal pay for equal work, to rectify the wage disparity that has existed between men and women. While this was not the first piece of legislation to tackle workplace discrimination, this was the first to focus on equal pay for men and women. But, did this piece of legislation achieve its goal of shrinking the wage disparity between men and women?
The pay gap has been a factor in American economics since the 1800s. Between 1820 and 1850 the "ratio of female-to-male full-time earnings rose from about 0.3, its level in the agricultural economy, to about 0.5 in manufacturing." Between the years 1890 and 1930, the ratio rose from .46 to .56. The Equal Pay Act of 1963 set to rectify this enormous disparity.
The Equal Pay Act of 1963 put in place policy that "prohibits sex-based wage discrimination between men and women in the same establishment who perform jobs that require substantially equal skill, effort,and responsibility under similar working conditions." This act also defined sex discrimination within 5 factors, with the five factors being;
- Depresses wages and living standards for employees necessary for their health and efficiency;
- Prevents the maximum utilization of the available labor resources;
- Tends to cause labor disputes, thereby burdening, affecting, and obstructing commerce;
- Burdens commerce and the free flow of goods in commerce; and
- Constitutes an unfair method of competition.
This definition of sex discrimination was to help enforce the act. By breaking a specific factor this definition, the violator would be punished under the sanctions listed within the act.
This act has created substantial benefits for women within the workforce. Since the act had been implemented, the pay gap has been closing. In 1979, the first year with comparable pay data was available for men and women, the Bureau of Labor Statistics has found that "women earned 62 percent of what men earned." However, what does the data look like today?
Unfortunately, the wage gap persists in the United States. After 2004, the pay gap has shortened to the 80 to 81 percent range. While this pay gap is smaller than it was in the past, the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that a woman in 2016 would earn only $749 in median weekly earnings as compared to a man's $915 weekly median earnings. This means that women earned 81.86% of what men earned weekly. Along with this, women dominated fields such as "receptionists and information clerks" and "teacher assistants" overall make less money than male dominated fields. Most troublesome is that women also earn less in their top 20 most common occupations than men in those same occupations. For example, within the financial services industry, while women account for more than half of all employees, women only earn $0.69 for every $1 men make.
Women also face a very prominent glass ceiling when it comes to advancement in work, which is an effect of the pay gap and the mindset behind paying women less. Currently, only 4.2% of Fortune 500 CEOs are women. This occupational segregation also not only hurts women but also hurts the rest of the population as well. There are two reasons for this; "it is inefficient economically, preventing able people from moving into occupations where they could perform well and that would satisfy them more than the ones open to them. And occupational segregation is a major cause for the persistent wage gap." Both of these factors affect the economy in negative ways that reduce the potential output of the female labor force and does not utilize their skills effectively. The first reason shows that the occupational segregation does not let women who have degrees for high-paying jobs work in them because they tend to be male dominated. This can lead women to work in occupations that they are overqualified for which. The second reason that this hurts the total population is that resulting from the wage gap, there is less money for women to use. This means less investment by women and less purchasing power held by women because of their lack of disposable income by having lower paying jobs.
The above data shows that the Equal Pay Act of 1963 still has left much to be desired but, remember, the pay gap has been present in the American economic system for hundreds of years. While there has been progress to try and close the wage gap, it persists, but at a substantially lower rate. We all know of many women who have been underpaid and held back due to societal influences. Truly an equal society would not have such a pay disparity between men and women. So while an 18.14% disparity is a hell of a lot better than 44%, it's clear that there's still much work to be done.

No on Montalbo - Great Showing at City Council, Childish Response from Mayor Butt
A big thanks to everyone who came to Richmond City Council tonight, those who spoke against Catherine Montalbo's appointment to the Richmond Citizen's/Community Police Review Commission, and those who signed the letter that we delivered to the City Council.
Mayor Butt responded to the large group of people who gathered to speak against Montalbo's appointment by pulling the item from the agenda entirely -- so there was no vote on Montalbo tonight.
Councilmember Jael Myrick made the very reasonable motion/suggestion that the City Council be allowed to vote on the appointments of Christopher Whitmore and Armond Lee, the two non-controversial CPRC appointments made by Butt, so that the commission can function. Butt refused, and withdrew their nominations as well, and the City Attorney said there was nothing the rest of the Council could do to stop him. Because he may not be able to get Montalbo approved, it looks like Butt is trying to shut down the Citizen's Police Review Commission entirely. It was undemocratic and vindictive, right out of the Trump playbook, but it got our speakers very fired up.
Butt said he didn't want to hear from us tonight. But more than 20 of us signed up for open comment and used that time to say what we needed to say about the CPRC anyway. It was truly inspiring to see a diverse group of real Richmonders coming together to take care of our city's most vulnerable people.
Only two people spoke in favor of the appointment, one of them being Montalbo herself.
Check out the video here, comments on Montalbo start at 23:50.
After the meeting one of of our allies was asked if Butt was going to shut down the CPRC forever. He responded, "Well, we won't let him." Amen to that. Stay tuned for another update with next steps!
Anyone who wants to get these updates can sign the No on Montalbo Letter to be added to this list
CCC Racial Justice Task Force Presentation
The Contra Costa County Racial Justice Task Force (created as a result of excellent campaign work by the CCC Racial Justice Coalition) has recently come out with a set of thirty recommendations for ensuring racial equality within the county's criminal justice system. Recommendations range from providing resources to incentivize school districts to explore, evaluate, implement or expand existing non-punitive discipline practices; to establishing a community capacity fund to build the capacity of community based organizations - especially those staffed by formerly incarcerated individuals - to provide services to reentry clients.
In Memory of Richard Boyd
Richard Boyd was a treasure in our community. Born in San Francisco, Richard and his wife Denise Abersold, a teacher in Richmond, moved to Atchison Village in 2006 and made Richmond their home. Richard had empathy toward our community and an unwavering belief that every neighborhood in Richmond can and deserves to be a healthy, livable space. One of his first projects was to rid his neighborhood at the bottom of Macdonald of drug dealing and loitering. Richard was not contemptuous of those dealing drugs, but believed deeply that acceptance of these behaviors, resignation and turning a blind eye was the recipe for continued unhappy and wasted lives.
Richard's most remarkable attribute was his acceptance of each individual and his ability to help those around him become better for having known him. He held his friends and mentees to the highest standards. He was always looking for ways for individuals or groups of people who felt estranged to find areas of commonality.
He was most proud of his role as a mentor of young people in Richmond. In his work with members of Safe Return he projected a confidence, that no matter the individual's past, a productive and satisfying life was a possibility. With his endless patience, common sense approach and unwavering belief in each person he mentored, he helped many young people go places (literally and figuratively) that they never imagined for themselves.
Richard was a committed friend of the Richmond Progressive Alliance. He supported our campaigns and our councilmembers. While he had no hesitation to express differences, he was always available to us and toward the end of his life had committed himself to helping us become an even stronger, more diverse organization.
Richard was an extraordinary friend—available for any need—a ride to the airport, to the hospital, or just an ear when things were going wrong.
Richard led a meaningful life. In his own unique, understated and gifted way he left a living legacy. Our challenge is to continue his mission--to strengthen community by helping our young people to grow and continue the struggle. We will miss him.
Recognizing Black Women
Strong black women have always been beacons for all women's liberation.
Because they have been faced with hatred, resistance, and insult (subtly, and not so), they talk back, act back. And then they tower. A short list of examples include:
Rosa Parks, and before her Claudette Colvin.
Barbara Jordan.
Shirley Chisholm.
Anita Hill—coming to talk in Oakland March 10 about her #MeToo moment decades before there was a #MeToo campaign.
Barbara Lee—Oakland's representative in the U.S. Congress
Nina Turner, former Senator from Ohio and Our Revolution president -- her grandma told her she has three strategic bones in her body: her wishbone, her jawbone, and her backbone.
Jovanka Beckles -- she's got those bones too, because she's had to, being a black Latina lesbian who endured hate speech on the Richmond City Council and successfully fought Chevron's attempt to buy the Richmond City Council. Jovanka also helped pass the first local rent control measure in 30 years. She helped raise the minimum wage in Richmond. She supports single payer health care for all. She's fighting to close corporate tax loopholes to help fund public schools and tuition-free college.
If you don't know these strong black women, you should. Look them up -- be inspired and awed.
Also, consider coming out to the Sisters in Solidarity International Women's Day Celebration, which will include speakers like Contra Costa County District Attorney Diana Becton (CCC's first black woman DA) and will be emceed by Councilmember Jovanka Beckles.
Gayle: Never Stop Fighting for Justice
In honor of Black History month, below is a beautiful essay penned by former Richmond Mayor Gayle McLaughlin. Gayle, who is running for California Lt. Governor, was recently endorsed by Bernie Sanders' Our Revolution! Please volunteer with Gayle's campaign or make a donation today!
Frederick Douglas said: "I prayed for freedom for twenty years, but received no answer until I prayed with my legs". He escaped slavery and became a resistance leader. Harriet Tubman told us: "Don't ever stop. If you hear the dogs, keep going. If you see the torches in the woods, keep going. If you want a taste of freedom, keep going". Frederick and Harriet reached freedom and helped many others reach it. They took action.
There were also those who turned around to fight their oppressors. During my first year as Mayor of Richmond in 2007, I introduced a proclamation honoring the Black heroes of Harper's Ferry (1859) and all those who fought against slavery and all those still struggling for liberation. African-Americans Osborn P. Anderson, Dangerfield Newby, Lewis Leary, John Copeland, and Shields Green joined the military invasion of Harper's Ferry, Virginia, led by John Brown and a small group of radical abolitionists, calling for slave insurrection, the end of slavery, and full control of their own destinies.
The actions of these brave freedom fighters became one of the most moving arguments for the end of slavery. Most of them died in the insurrection, except for O.P. Anderson, who escaped and later joined the Union Army as an officer.
Lucy Parsons was a 6-year-old slave girl in Texas at the time of Harper's Ferry. She grew up to become an amazing American labor organizer. Lucy and her husband Albert were leaders in campaigning for the eight-hour work day. Although Albert was tried and executed in 1887, Lucy never stopped organizing, speaking, denouncing, writing, and demanding justice for working folks.
These true heroes are often excluded or erased from our history, yet their stories connect well with many subsequent struggles, all the way to today's Black Lives Matter movement. During Black History Month I honor those brave Black men and women who rose up and fought oppression. I invite you to do the same. Let us be Californians of action against all injustice. "Don't ever stop," as Harriet said.
Contra Costa Community Defense Network
Exciting news from our allies at the Safe Return Project (which supports formerly incarcerated individuals): SRP is launching a Participatory Defense Network for Contra Costa County!
What is participatory defense? According to the Albert Cobarrubias Justice Project, the San Jose-based organization which pioneered this model, it means bringing a "community organizing ethic to the court process; encouraging the active engagement of families and communities in the defense of a loved one who has had contact with the criminal justice system; holding the public agencies that make up the criminal justice system accountable; and bringing a community presence to what is usually an isolating court process." Ultimately, participatory defense is aimed at equipping impacted communities with the tools and information needed to meaningfully impact their local criminal justice system.
Richmond's Family Justice Center
While cases of family violence have traditionally been viewed as isolated incidents, studies are now showing the link between domestic violence and other forms of violence in communities. For instance, a majority of mass shootings (54%) are related to domestic or family violence. In one study examining 10 officer-involved critical incidents in ten years, the suspects had a history of violence against women in 80% of these cases. Research also shows that domestic violence and child abuse often occur in the same families and children living in violent families are more likely to engage in violent activities when they are older.
When a community focuses on reducing the incidents of family and domestic abuse, this effort can provide a measurable benefit to reducing overall crime while promoting overall community health. The Family Justice Center (the "Center") is a warm and welcoming one-stop center for victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, child abuse, elder abuse and human trafficking. We bring resources to meet the needs of children, youth and families impacted by interpersonal violence.
The Family Justice Center model has been identified as a best practice in the field of domestic violence by the United States Department of Justice, and is employed in over 100 communities worldwide. The West Center in Richmond opened its pilot site in 2011 and moved to its permanent location in June of 2015. In 2016, the West Center assisted 986 clients, and we expect to serve over 1,000 clients in 2017.
The West Family Justice Center currently has 19 on-site partners, including community based victim advocates, mental health counselors, detectives from the Richmond PD, a Deputy District Attorney, DA victim advocates, attorneys and County public benefits staff. Our programs and services fall under three categories: crisis support, long term safety, and community building and education. The Family Justice Institute offers free workshops on substantive topics, such as "trauma 101" and "Interpersonal violence 101."
The Family Justice Community Fellows program offers a 10-month long fellowship opportunity in which survivors of violence develop their leadership skills while creating their own projects to support others in their community. On December 8, 2017, the second cohort of nine fellows graduated and and showcased their achievements. Each fellow completed a project on a range of topics with which they have personal experience, including reducing bullying in schools, supporting foster youth in transition, connecting abuse survivors with pets, and offering art classes to urban youth.
Punishment Should End after Time Served
We were so moved after this recent OpEd by the amazing Tamisha Walker, Executive Director of the Safe Return Project, that we could not help re-publishing some of it.
The RPA partners with the Safe Return Project as part of the Contra Costa Racial Justice Alliance, which works to reduce racial inequalities in our criminal justice system. The coalition has successfully worked on many issues, including instituting "Ban the Box" in Richmond, and advocating for the appointment of Diana Becton for interim District Attorney.
San Francisco Chronicle: Punishment should end after time served
By Tamisha Walker
November 14, 2017
I have been one of the lucky ones. But for every success story like mine, there are dozens of people who continue to be shut out of society. There are nearly 5,000 different restrictions placed on people with felony convictions in California, making it difficult if not impossible for people to secure jobs, housing, student loans and other keys to achieving economic security and financial stability.
Federal, state and local laws on the books create obstacles for people trying to reassemble their lives after experiencing the trauma of incarceration.
The situation is particularly difficult for women, who face unique challenges and needs when they reintegrate into society. The majority of re-entry programs are geared toward men. Issues like access to housing, employment and public assistance become more dire for women, especially those with young children, as they try to put their lives back together.
When I was released from jail in 2009, my first priority was to regain custody of my kids. But in order to do that, I needed to have stable housing and a job. Time and time again, my applications for housing or employment were rejected simply because of my past mistakes. I remember going to the Burlington Coat Factory in Richmond, joining the hundreds of people standing in line for about 100 open positions.
I got through the first interview feeling really confident, leaving with a friendly handshake from the woman who conducted the interview. As I walked away, I saw her look at the application, and drop it in the trash. My heart sank. I knew I would never get a call back. More than 60 percent of formerly incarcerated individuals remain unemployed a year after their release, and when they are able to find a job, they often are paid less.
I had to check the box admitting to my past record. In a competitive hiring environment, I knew I didn't stand a chance.

Appalling Conditions for Female ICE Detainees in Richmond Jail
Recent news stories (broken by San Francisco Chronicle reporter Otis Taylor) about appalling conditions for female ICE detainees have prompted strong calls for investigations of the West County Detention Center in Richmond. The jail receives $6 million per year from the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to run a federal detention center to house people suspected of immigration violations.
Taylor detailed accounts of women being locked up and made to wait up to 23 hours for bathroom access, and forced to defecate in plastic bags. The report also described other problems, such as lack of health services, and being punished for speaking Spanish. Several elected officials have called for investigations, including Nancy Skinner who requested that California Attorney General Xavier Becerra look into the allegations.
On November 4, members of the public rallied in front of the jail to protest the conditions. Former Richmond Mayor and current Lt. Governor candidate Gayle McLaughlin, went further, noting that "Citizens and elected officials of Richmond, myself included, have demanded repeatedly that you [Sheriff Livingston] cease and desist participating in ICE abuses and that you terminate your contract with ICE. You have ignored these requests and by doing so, have violated the dignity and principles of our City and County."
CCC Racial Justice Task Force Forum
One of the most significant achievements of the Contra Costa Racial Justice Coalition is the creation of an official CCC Racial Justice Taskforce to address racial disparities in our criminal justice system. The 17-member Taskforce, which was approved by the Board of Supervisors in April 2016, has been formed and is conducting a series of fora to meet and hear from residents.
The Taskforce is focused on:
1. Researching and identifying consensus measures within the County to reduce racial disparities in the criminal justice system;
2. Planning and overseeing implementation of the measures once identified; and
3. Reporting back to the Board of Supervisors on progress made toward reducing racial disparities within the criminal justice system.

Don't forget The Firemen, only NTSC version in English is a beta cart with an early draft script.
The games I covered have either regional differences (Super Probotector), language options or there is no US-NTSC version of the game, like Super Bomberman 3.It's no bad idea to provide extra information, but it was not in my interest to make you say "hell, I need to get the PAL version then!"Instead, it's more like if you want to play the PAL version but you don't want that 50 FPS slowness, you can find those NTSC patches and apply them no matter how unskilled you are (despite needing to know how Lunar IPS works, but that's not hard is it?)
HiI've also made some simple NTSC patches for SNES PAL Games (No-Intro set):Firemen, The (Europe) (En,Fr,De).ipsIllusion of Time (France).ipsSecret of Evermore (France).ipsSimCity (France).ipsSmash Tennis (Europe).ipsSoul Blazer (France).ipsTerranigma (France).ipsVal d'Isere Championship (France).ipshttp://www.filedropper.com/bigboosnesntscpatches
would this patch for actraiser (the 1st one) work with a translation patch? i'm not sure how well i could play in german.
Thank you so much for your hard work!, now I will be able to play these PAL games on my Snes hardware using my SD2snes.Question, how did you manage to hack so many games in one go?? is it a simple process?Also, is there a chance of getting a patch like this for the remaining PAL games with advantages, or non existant is NTSC-U versions?, Examples: Whirlo, Firemen, Parodius, Turbo Toons, Nightmare Busters, etc etc***EDIT: the link doesn't work though =(
Yes it should.

I was in an arbitration meeting concerning my son. My son's father had the school's principal and two front office staff workers call in to state that I had called my son's father a vulgar name and that it was witnessed by the principal. I was also disruptive on school grounds and had to be told to leave the campus.
I immediately called the principal a liar and he attempted to back track. The two staff personnel were attempting to back up the principal's statement but I cut them off and let them know that I would be filing a formal complaint on them for also lying, their voice had a nervous tone after that.
The two staff members also stated that I was a problem all last school year but I have a text message from a campus police officer stating that I was never a problem. There are also security cameras on campus that would should show that I was never escorted off campus on the day in question. I never came into contact with my son's father that day, I had no clue he was even on school grounds during the time I was there.
The same campus police officer asked me if I had lost my job and I asked him where he heard it. He stated that the front office clerks were telling him. I'm still employed and the only way they would come up with such a story is from my son's father. He is spreading lies around in order to hurt my character with the school staff.
Do I have a case of slander "pro se" because their statements were made to cause harm to me concerning my child's custody? They called in using their proper title and it was during school work hours. My son's father and I had to swear in prior to the meeting to tell the truth, but the witnesses who called in never had too. I'm in Texas and this just happened days ago.

Dear Xoro,
When referring to defamation by slander you were probably referring to slander "per se," and not slander "pro se." The term pro se is used to describe a defendant in a civil or criminal case who chooses to represent him or herself without legal representation.
Per se slander is a type of slander where the person slandered does not have to prove exactly how he or she was injured or harmed, financially or personally. The falsity of the statement is sufficient proof. Examples of slander per se would be false statements that you had a sexally transmitted disease, or committed a heinous crime such as rape or incest.
From the facts you present you do not have a viable claim for slander, be it "per se" or not.
For there to be a viable claim for slander you would have to prove the statements were false, and as a result of the falsity you were harmed in some way. Harm might be financial losses, loss of status in the community, and the like.
Finally, there is an absolute defense to slander, whether per se or not. That is truth. If what was said is true, the person alleging slander has no recourse.

Tauck Tour was memorable and the part Tauck handled was done extremely well. Disappointed in Wind Star, booked an AX cabin and found it cramped. The fabric furniture in the cabin and public areas were stained. The sails did not work and the Yacht overall looked in need of a complete overhaul, inside and out. Paid a premium price to not sail.
Most Memorable Moment:
Dinner at Ephesus, even though a Wind Star event.
I will start off by praising our tour director. He was our tour director on our Israel trip, and he continues to give his guests the greatest tour experiences. The dinner at the Library of Celcius was something we will never forget. This being our 14th trip allows me to say that Tauck did not live up to its reputation.
Most Memorable Moment:
The Windstar was below the standards we experienced on the river cruise trips. The ship was "tired". The breakfasts were sub-par and stale bagels, breads and danishes were common. Dinners had very small portions. The evening barbeque was great, but the dinners did not include even 1 choice of a Greek cuisine. The service on the ship was great.

Tragedy struck the small Israeli town of Migdal when a 23-year-old mother, Dor Sela a"h, was stabbed to death by her husband, who also killed their two children, Yosef and Binyomin, an 8-month-old baby and a toddler one and a half years old.
The man is suspected of also murdering the neighbor's child, Nachman z"l, an 11 year old, and stabbing an 10-year-old brother, Natan, who escaped through a window and pretended to be dead. He was taken by helicopter to Rambam Medical Center in Haifa in critical condition. He is now stable.
Nachman was a son of R' Yisroel Attya, a Breslover chossid. Nachman and Natan were apparently invited for the Shabbos seudah to their neighbors, the Selas. It was during the seudah that the unspeakable incident took place.
Nachman and Natan were both students at Talmud Torah Chemdas Hatorah in Tiveriah which is led by Rav Dov Kook.
The murderer was arrested in an orchard near his apartment.
The murder was reported at 2:48 p.m. and police converged on the man's apartment.
Migdal is a small town near Tiveriah of only about 1,200 residents. The residents are in shock.
A relative of the suspected murderer said that he and his deceased wife were newly religious and had lived outside the town for a while.

text: Ok...so i downloaded the official iso from MS & installed it to 2 different notebooks. There are so far 2 things i notice that is different from both the installation. The first is the boot up screen (as attached) & second, i cannot seems to move the user folder (ie: Downloads) from the default location to another partition without losing it from the default location. A little hard to explain but conclusion, on 1 notebook it works while on the other notebook it does not. So which boot up screen do you guys get? 1 or 2? I know it's no big deal but i just want to find out to see if some part of my installation went wrong.

Imagine a hospital that, at one time ran smoothly helping the public, now with the primary objection of taking care of the thousands of abandoned infants and children. This is the reality in Romania when Nicolae Ceausescu was in power. In 1966 he created an Anti-Abortion/Contraception law in order to raise the population and achieve his ultimate goal to slowly take over surrounding areas and increase Romania's power. The next plan of action was to open orphanages, which caused an entire generation of mentally and physically handicapped children. Now after more than four decades, the question is if they have made enough progression on this horrific issue.
Ceausescu's law included that each family that doesn't 't have at least five children cannot use birth control or contraception, but most families couldn' t afford to take care of them so they had to turn them over to the government. The combination of being underfunded and understaffed caused the children to be neglected and even worse abused. In Romania's many institutions, the ratio of child to caretaker was 1 to 65 until as late as 1990. In any Daycare in the united states, the ratio for infants is one to four, this is for the safety and constant development of the babies. The effect of the small number of staff had on the children is the lack of stimulation. Baby's brains are continuously hungry for stimulation and if there is none then the development is delayed. Professor Michael Rutter did a study on children adopted into England. The first of the three groups was adopted from within the country, the second was adopted from Romania before the age of 6 months, the last was adopted from Romania after the age of 6 months. He studied the effects on brain progression as a result of institutionalization and the results were shocking.
"When they first arrived in the country as babies, more than half the 165 children he studied showed severe delays in development compared with their British counterparts. But he found that, even at the age of 11, many of these children have not caught up."
Some of the children were physically handicapped as a result of the institution. They would be tied to their cribs, beds or just tied up like an animal. The inability to move made them very weak and eventually was the cause of their disability. In an article in the New York Times on the subject they described one scene, "In an adult psychiatric hospital, investigators found some children wrapped head to toe in sheets used as full-body restraints. When the staff agreed to remove the sheet on a 17-year-old girl, the report states, "her skin came off with the sheet, leaving a raw open wound beneath it."
Not only is that illegal but it is also nauseating that people do not feel bad treating another in that manner.
The treatment in the institutions also spread many diseases without the proper medications to treat them. As a result of the malnutrition, some caretakers would inject them with a micro infumicro-infusion blood every day every day every y. The community was not screened and there were not enough needles so ironically, the injection to boost immunity is the very cause of many children getting the ultimate immunodeficiency, HIV. 93% of the initial cases were under the age of 13 and by 2000, 60% of Europe's pediatric HIV/AIDS was registered in Romania. The disease spread quickly because of the conditions and became a large problem for the Romanian government because of the lack of funds to get the proper medication for them.
There have been some improvements such as new centers opening up and humanizing some of the existing ones. Since Ceausescu assassination on December 25, 1989, while trying to flee the country, Romania has used the money in their budget as well as the money donated to help address the issue. The tragic part is that they do not have enough to dig them out of the deep hole that Ceausescu dug for them.
The problem that arose later was the street children of Romania. They were either abandoned and learned to live independently on the streets or more commonly they were young adults thrown from the orphanages. The institutions only took kids up to 18 and after that, they were told to leave, with no families or anyone to look to for help, they just ended up on the streets. Many of them have drug problems such as sniffing glue and metallic paint. The sniffing soothes the hunger pains and makes them happy for the time they are high. This is no such life for them considering they are just entering the adult world.
There are many organizations out to help the orphanages as well as the families and children of post-institutionalized children. One of them is Families of Russian and Ukrainian Adoption ("who we are and what we do"). There do " n focus is providing ng tools to adopted children and their families in order to make the adjustment smoother. The connect orphans with each other and helps teach them about their culture and keep a close bond with their homeland. They also help orphans in Romania as well by building playgrounds and donating books. Dr. Steve Curran takes mission trips to Romania in order to give free dental care to the orphans who otherwise wouldn't see one. For the street children, there is a help too. Such as Concordia whicConcordia, an organization that organization any homes for them as well as drop-in centers to distribute food, water, medical care, and therapy. The homes find orphans jobs and give them a place to live so they can learn to care for themselves.
On June 21, 2004, there was a law passed in Romania against International adoption except to grandparents. Ion Iliescu, former president of Romania created this law thinking that it is better for the children to be in state-run orphanages, foster homes or to be adopted domestically. One thing I'm sure he didn't take into consideration is the fact that most abandoned children are gypsies, most Romanian's will not adopt a gypsy child. This means that until they open adoption internationally again, many children will not be getting the loving homes they deserve. It's a shame because there are so many people who want to adopt from there and can give those children a better home than they could ever imagine in Romania.
When I started writing this research paper, it was just another assignment to get done but I learned so much and became passionate about the cause. I have researched different groups and have decided to volunteer abroad in an orphanage. These kids ask for nothing more than to feel secure and loved, something that most children take for granted here in the U.S. every day. I am leaning toward Projects Abroad to do my volunteer work because they are a non-religious group(«Do International Volunteer Work with Children in Romania with Projects Abroad.»). Most of the groups are Christian and I am not very religious so I chose not to join those. Hopefully, I will be going in the summer of 2010, I have to wait because the price to go is around $3,000.
The tragedy that had befallen Romania is not good but they have tried to improve the conditions with the help of other organizations. Considering this, they still have a lot of work to do and they could have done a lot more. It is up to organizations and the European Union to help and motivate the present president, Traian Basescu, to get rid of this issue that has plagued Romania for almost 43 years.

What an exciting day for mindfulness and Buddhism. If you haven't seen it yet, check out this NY Times article.
It's great to see that mindfulness is going mainstream and that more and more people are looking at it as an option, whether as a spiritual practice or for relaxation.
My hope is that as it becomes more mainstream, it does not lose its deepest meaning. I think some who practice DBT and CBT do not always use mindfulness in the spirit in which it was created as a practice.
In Mindful Eating: A Guide to Rediscovering a Healthy and Joyful Relationship with Food, Dr. Jan Chozen Bays, says, "Mindful eating replaces self-criticism with self-nurturing. It replaces shame with respect for your own inner wisdom".
So many of us turn to food for comfort and nurturing, reaching for that big bowl of mac and cheese that reminds us of that bowl that mom had waiting for us after school. That one we poured our hearts out over, telling her all about our school day.
As adults, we chase that good, warm, gooey feeling, like an addict chases their first high. We have a bad day, put on our favorite sweater, turn on the tv and did into that bowl before realizing, it's all gone. And we still feel hollow and frustrated.
But when we start to add mindfulness into our lives, into our daily moment to moment experiences, we become present to what "is" and the fullness that moment contains.
Bays says, "In fact there are two essential aspects of becoming mindful as we eat. They are slowing down and eating without distractions."
I remember, shortly after learning about meditation in college, we got to read Peace in Every Step by Thich Nhat Hanh. It was time to try something besides counting my exhales. And tangerine meditation was the next practice.
I have such a fondness for this practice and I have clients that remind me of their first experience with it several years after they leave group.
If you've never tried this, Google tangerine meditation, go get yourself an organic orange, tangerine, etc. and see the miracle of mindfulness yourself.
You will never hear the words orange or tangerine without the hairs on the back of your neck standing up as you remember the intimate experience of savoring the whole sensation.
Another way I like to start off my mindful eating meditation is to start off with The Five Contemplations. If you don't remember them from one of my previous posts, here they are again:
The Five Contemplations
This food is the gift of the whole universe: the earth, the sky, and much hard work.
May we eat in mindfulness so that we are worthy to receive it.
May we transform our unskillful states of mind and learn to eat in moderation.
May we take only food that nourishes us and prevents illness.
We accept this food in order to realize the path of understanding and love.
Wherever you are in your practice, whether you are counting your exhales, using your mala, walking, or kneeling on your bench, try bringing mindfulness into your day. Most of us have at least three meals a day and what a wonderful way to get time to practice in; a great way to make sure you spend some time mindfully every day.

Vienna in Fairfax County, Virginia — The American South (Mid-Atlantic)
Freedom Hill Redoubt
Late-War Protection
On New Year's Day 1865, two 13th New York Cavalry troopers encountered a concealed force of thirty Confederates near Freedom Hill. One of the Federals escaped and spread the word, but patrols failed to capture any of the Confederates. Later that month, Federal authorities ordered the construction of the redoubt. Military dispatches and other official communications from the Freedom Hill redoubt confirm the fact that the fort saw no significant action during its brief lifetime.
A company of the 5th Pennsylvania Heavy Artillery Regiment was stationed here as part of a larger contingent assigned to protect the signal tower at the nearby Peach Grove Stockade. Freedom Hill's fortifications also offered protection to couriers and patrols on Chain Bridge Road as they sought to elude Confederate Col. John S.
The Freedom Hill redoubt was built to standard army design. A gun platform was located in the center, the earthen walls were lined with timber, and ditches ringed the exterior. The soldiers were not shielded from the weather, nor did the earthworks protect against anything but small arms fire.

326-400 East Prince Street Saint Paul, Minnesota - DowntownI just found out about the plan to pull traffic off the 52 bridge directly down Prince Street to the dead-end at Broadway and Prince/4th, the most heavily pedenstrianized area of Lowertown. No meeting was posted to discuss this, so residents were never given an opportunity to point out what an AWFUL IDEA this is! Please CHANGE THIS PLAN so that traffic from 52 will land in a safer, less destructive place. There is no need to destroy one of the only two gardens in Lowertown, or create a high risk traffic situation for residents and visitors.
Damaged Sidewalk Archived421 Goodrich Avenue Saint Paul, MN 55102, USA - West 7thThe driveway apron at 424 Goodrich was removed several months ago by order of the city. The resulting hole was left unfilled for weeks, and then someone (claiming to be a contractor for the city) dumped this crappy dirt full of garbage and rock debris. It was never smoothed, and never seeded. It is extremely hazardous. I've called about this several times. This needs to be fixed NOW.

This street is a mess and has been in 3rd world condition for as long as I can remember. It is less than a mile long. Can we get some money in the city budget to re pave the entire street? Please? For 6 years my poor car has suffered.
The least fun park in the city Archived328 Stevens St W St Paul, MN - West SideDouglas Park is a MESS...there are no swings, the surrounding fence is a rusty safety hazard, the sand is full or garbage, feces, and unknowns, and most of the kids in the neighborhood go to other parks to play now. A major face lift, or complete change to the park, would be so great for this community of families with small children. One idea would be to mimic Minneapolis Parks with their free, fenced in splash parks! Douglas Park seems like the perfect place for a splash park!

Hi, I am Misti Kallis, owner of Go Figure Missoula. I became a member 3 years ago and couldn't believe the change Go Figure Missoula made for me personally but even more how easy it was to incorporate the healthy lifestyle and eating habits of high protein/low carb to my family.
I am a group exercise instructor and always struggled with getting the last few pounds off and keeping them off. I am also a full-time mom and worker and struggled with enough energy to get through the day.
With Go Figure's program, neither are struggles anymore!
Prior to my fitness journey I had just graduated. I stopped working out and I ate as I wanted. I became lazy, tired, unfocused, and I was excellent at making up excuses. Before I knew it I had put 20lbs on in a short amount of time. My joints ached and I never felt fully comfortable with myself. I started working with Go Figure 3 years ago and realized that I didn't want to feel like did. I followed Go Figures eating lifestyle and turned myself around. I lost the 20lbs I put on and decided that I wasn't going to stop there. I decided that I wanted to compete in NPC (National Physique Committee). After 5 months of strict training, I accomplished to stand on my first stage and leave with a 1st place trophy. Was it easy? No. Everyone's journeys are rocky but excuses and giving up only make it more rocky. I love helping others set goals and accomplishment them. Whether you have a little or a lot to lose, each day you're one step closer to achievement and I'm so thankful to be apart of Go Figure Missoula.
