I've seen a few threads about focus issues when unlocking 1PW with the master password, but that seems to work relatively well for me. It's when 1PW is already unlocked and I open 1PW mini using the Chrome extension that mini doesn't focus and I have to click on it to get it to focus properly. I can't use the arrow keys to select entries or search without first clicking on mini. Chrome appears to maintain focus, as it remains "highlighted" as the active window in the taskbar even when mini shows up (until, of course, I click on mini). If I use Ctrl + Alt + \ or click on the icon in the system tray mini focuses just fine.
Interestingly, if I open the main 1PW window, immediately close it, then invoke mini via the Chrome extension, window focus works properly... for a few minutes. But inevitably the focusing issues come back. I haven't narrowed down what exactly causes the issue to reappear, but it seems to happen when browsing certain sites.
Three sites that seem to trigger the issue are:
Whenever I browse any of those sites for more than a minute or two, the focusing issue reappears. Especially with https://web.parcelapp.net/. Simply visiting that site immediately causes the issue to come back. Though for some reason it seems to work fine in incognito mode (I have 1PW enabled in incognito). Maybe an extension I use is doesn't agree with 1PW? I'll continue to test it out.
1Password Version: 7.0.532
Extension Version: 22.214.171.124
OS Version: Windows 10
Sync Type: 1PW account
I actually just locked 1PW (when focusing worked fine), visited https://web.parcelapp.net/ and tried to unlock 1PW using the Chrome extension and I ran into focusing issues as well. So scratch that first part of my previous post, lol.
[Edit] Just browsed https://resetera.com/ in incognito with 1PW as the only enabled extension and am still having the same thing happening, so I guess that browser extension theory is out the window as well.
Hi @Tetryl91,
Thanks for reporting this!
I was really hoping you've found the way to reproduce this because it would've been easy to find a fix for it but unfortunately, I cannot reproduce the issue on any of the sites. We've seen scattered reports for a few years but we have not found a single case that's reproducible on any machines. We even had a few remote sessions and it wasn't showing up in there.
If you reboot into safe mode with networking, can you reproduce it? Here's how for Windows 10: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/12376/windows-10-start-your-pc-in-safe-mode
When you said you tried to unlock 1Password using Chrome, is that with the shortcut (Control + \) or clicking on 1Password icon in the browser's toolbar?
@MikeT It's only when clicking on the icon in the browser toolbar. Ctrl + \, Ctrl + Alt + \, and clicking the 1PW icon in Windows' notification area all work fine with no focusing problems. And I just recently noticed that I only run into the issue if I'm using the touchpad on my laptop. If I only use a USB mouse I never get any focusing issues, or at least not often enough to notice. I even tried it on another laptop that was a different brand and got the same result. Touchpad = issues within a few minutes. Mouse = browsed for a half hour or more with no issues.
Thing is, I can't figure out what I'm doing with the touchpad, if anything, that causes the problem to trigger. And when the issue does happen, if I switch to a mouse afterward, I still get focusing problems even with the mouse (until I open the main 1PW window to "reset" the focusing). But if I use only the mouse from then on it's smooth sailing.
I'll try the safe mode thing right now and report back.
@MikeT Just browsed around with the trackpad in safe mode for around 20 minutes and had no problems. It's listed as "Lenovo Pointing Device", but seems to be a Synaptics underneath. I can try disabling the "Synaptics Touchpad 64-bit Enhancements" entry in my Windows startup, but other than that the Lenovo Pointing Device software seems to be part of the driver. [Edit] Don't have access to the other laptop right now (it's a Dell) but when I do I'll check that trackpad too.
@MikeT Double posting to make sure you don't miss this. Tested this on the other laptop. Don't know what brand the trackpad actually is (laptop is Dell), but it's one of those "precision touchpads" that seems to be using a Microsoft provided driver. All I see in device manager is two "HID-compliant mouse" entries, one of which is the USB mouse I have, and a "PS/2 compatible mouse". All using MS drivers.
Anyway, all the settings for it are in the Windows settings app, and just like with the trackpad on the Lenovo laptop, when two finger scrolling is enabled I have focusing problems. Everything seems to work fine when I turn that off. In addition, with scrolling off, I kept accidentally triggering pinch to zoom and that broke 1PW focusing too. So I turned that off as well. I'm going to test pinch to zoom on the Lenovo and see what happens. [Edit] Pinch to zoom also breaks 1PW focusing on the Lenovo.
Found it. Two finger scrolling being enabled breaks it. There are options for vertical and/or horizontal scrolling, and it doesn't matter if only one of them or both are on, it causes focusing problems. If trackpad scrolling is off, everything works perfectly.
@Tetryl91: Whoa. Thank you! As I was following along with this discussion just now, that's the direction I was thinking in too, and I was about to ask. But it looks like you were able to narrow it down already. Awesome!

No problem! Thanks again! I've shared this with Mike and the rest of the team. It's long been our white whale, so even though there may be other causes for focus issues out there as well, this may help a lot of people.

Very helpful! One thing that I really miss on Windows is that whatever Apple does with their trackpad hardware and software to avoid incorrect or accidental input is really amazing. I think I may not have seen issues like this myself because I turn a lot of this stuff off in Windows to make it more reliable in that regard. Thank you so much for sharing your findings here with the community!
Hi @Tetryl91,
That's great, I'll let our developers know. Unfortunately, I am not able to reproduce this at all with my Surface Pro 4, nor did we hear from other Surface users that has the same precision touchpads with all of these settings enabled by default as far as I know.
Happens in Firefox too. Exact same thing. Only happens when using the extension icon on the toolbar (oh, and right clicking in the browser and selecting 1Password from the context menu). Bringing up mini with the keyboard shortcut or the icon in the notification area works fine every time.
I still think it's related to the touchpad somehow. In fact, in Firefox it breaks more consistently.
In Firefox:
1. If mini's focus is already broken, open the main 1PW window to fix focus.
2. Go to Firefox and scroll with the touchpad (seems any website will do).
3. Open 1PW mini with the extension icon on the toolbar. Focus is fine. Close 1PW mini.
4. Scroll again. Reopen 1PW mini with the extension icon. Focus is broken.
I just did it like 15 times in a row. And if I use my USB mouse, everything is fine. But the moment I use the touchpad to scroll or pinch to zoom, it breaks.
Here's a video to show what I mean: https://photos.app.goo.gl/bCNiH57Uav5bQxkz2
Before the video I opened the main 1PW window to fix the focus, but I didn't show it for obvious reasons.
I expect you won't be able to reproduce this, as I'm sure it's something specific to my setup. I just don't know what it could be. It happens on two different laptops from different manufacturers with different touchpad drivers. The only thing I can think of is there's some software I'm running on both computers that is conflicting with 1PW somehow. I just don't know what that program could be. I'm not using anything that would obviously affect how scrolling works. It's weird.
@Tetryl91: Thanks for the additional information. That's really interesting, and I think you may be onto something with the trackpad. I can't think of cases where a regular mouse was involved. I have a potentially stupid question: since I noticed that you have Firefox pinned in the task bar, do you see any difference with this focus issue if you also pin 1Password in the task bar? I always have 1Password there, and I suspect many others do too, so I wonder if Windows is being a bit weird with the focusing at least partly because there's no "active" app in the traditional sense. The OS has come a long way, but there's still some legacy baggage (the devs are screaming as I write this, I can hear it, "SOME?!?!?!")

Heavenly surprises
1 Samuel 10: Saul among the prophets! Who would have guessed?!
The young man Saul is not a leader and he isn't especially known for his spirituality. On this day, after his meeting with Samuel, Saul is headed home when he encounters a group of prophets on their way to worship. Before he knows it, Saul falls in with them, and then to everyone's surprise he joins them in their religious expression. This is an unlikely event and word of it spreads throughout his family and friends. People are surprised at "Saul among the prophets." After he becomes king a saying based on this incident becomes common. Anytime a person is surprised at something they shake their heads in wonder and say, "Saul among the prophets! Who would have guessed!" I've seen God do some surprising things in people's lives. When I was a kid I knew a man who had been the town drunk. He was wonderfully converted and became the Sunday School Superintendent in the church where I grew up. "Saul among the prophets! Who would have guessed!" Another man, who was raised in the church, got away from God. His mother never stopped praying for him, but for years he seemed distant. One night he came to revival and responded to the invitation. A few years later he was a terrific youth leader in the church. "Saul among the prophets!" I love it when God does stuff like that and look forward to more "Saul among the prophets!" events in the days to come.
Take Away: The Lord does wonderfully surprising things in the lives of those who cooperate with his purposes for them.

Why Great Original Content Is Still King In Online Marketing
Mar 16 2012
Andrew Company Blog calgary web design, copywriting, fresh content, online marketing, seo, social media, website development, white-hat 0
There is no substitute for great & original content on your website if you want to be successful. But why?
1. Original content builds credibility with your site's visitors.
Maybe you have some lame, unoriginal copy on your website, or a bunch of stock photos they've also seen on your competitors website. Perhaps you have a few generic pictures related to your business but no original and truly worthwhile media (pictures and videos). Perhaps you thought you don't really need to bother with blogging or social media, or newsletters & creating new content for your website on a regular basis.
If this is you, then your competitors have a gigantic leg on up on you. If they do this & you don't, then you are not going to come across as very credible, unique, or interesting. Regardless of how experienced you are, or how long you've been in business, or whatever else you do. It's important to use your website to let people know "what's going on", why you're different, and make a great presentation with your own video & imagery — otherwise all your website really amounts to is a very fancy, overpriced business card.
2. Original content is critical for SEO.
If Google doesn't think your content on your website is original, your website will be more or less ignored and be completely left out of the rankings.
Not only that, but you need some great content to prove your experience, skill & knowledge in a given field and to allow for the search engines to see your original content filled with the keywords that relate to your business.
Finally & perhaps most importantly, without original & interesting content; your web design doesn't matter & no one will have any reason to share it with anyone else, building critical back-links that raise the authority of your website on the internet. A great web developer &/or copywriter can help you to do this.
3. First Impressions Are Critical For Developing Customer Relationships
A great web design firm will help you to craft your marketing copy carefully so that you create a good first impression — getting across your value proposition while simultaneously creating a positive, credible impression and inspiring interest.
However it doesn't matter how great your design, presentation, reputation, & portfolio is if your website doesn't interest anyone that finds it to purchase your products or services. That's one of the main reasons it is so critical to spend the time to write your own content carefully, and to continue to produce your own relevant content for your pages, blogs, and social media. This is a key to building your online marketing presence.
Client's always ask me: "How do I get tons of new business from Google?". Well, we can certainly help you to put your best foot forward, but at the end of the day it comes down to putting in a considerable amount of effort to translate your business and everything anyone would want to know about it to the web. Of course, having a great developer that really understands marketing, and is willing to take the time to try to get to know your business sure helps!

Happy 2015 to everyone! I hope you had a safe and fun holiday season. At the City Wide office, we just wrapped up our year and holiday season with a late, but very fun party at a MN Wild game. We rented out a suite and had nearly everyone present from our company, along with a majority of their significant others. This was a very fun social event! The Wild took good care of us (minus their loss), they had good food, snacks and a great view from our suite!
Back in the office, we've been busy watching our two new night managers develop into their roles and take over their territories. Alex, our new FSM for the North West metro, is taking off managing his own accounts, running a route and starting to identify additional needs in his clients' facilities. This has allowed me to step back from direct management of several accounts. I can now focus on the entirety of the territory, making more visits with our FSM team, and seeing 30-40 different clients a week throughout our territory! I've really enjoyed the last few months- getting around to more of our accounts, meeting clients that have been with us a long time, and helping determine how we can be of further help in their sites.
It may have been posted up on the blog here already, but we had a very busy start to January! We started 12-15 new facilities on January 1st and 2nd. It was a large group effort which involved everyone out helping at night, to get those buildings up & running. Some of our team even worked on the holiday to get a new facility off the ground. I always appreciate the willingness and extra effort that goes into these busier times, not only from our operations team, but also from the sales team as well.
Recently, we've had a couple visitors in town from different City Wide Operations teams and have really enjoyed their company. Each of them came to visit us for different reasons, to learn some of our behaviors and best practices, so they could take that back to their office & improve their presence in their respective cities. It is always fun to have visitors in town. In exchange, we get to gain a lot from them as well. Happy 2015 again to everyone, and thanks for reading!

Cultivating a culture that rewards the greater good.
We define our community as our family of dedicated associates, the customers we serve and all the people who live and work in the communities where we operate. We have over 2,400 associates in 19 states and two Canadian provinces. We make investments in our people and our communities. From structured leadership training programs to community volunteerism and employee and corporate giving, we are committed to being the first to help.
Our goal is to continuously seek ways to partner with our customers, associates and community organizations to give back in ways that build better futures for those in need.
Our goal is to continuously seek ways to partner with our customers, associates and community organizations to give back in ways that build better futures for those in need.
Caring for social causes nationwide
Since giving back is so important to us, we volunteer our time, donate our personal financial resources, make in-kind contributions of our high-performance products and give selflessly year after year.
Education, health-related causes and community services, including housing for veterans, are the focus of our philanthropic outreach. Recipients include American Cancer Society, Teach For America and Ovarian Cancer Research Fund along with support for local groups including Project Lift and the Arts & Science Council in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Purple Hearts for Homes & Gary Sinise
We partner with the Gary Sinise Foundation and Purple Heart Homes to build adaptive housing for our most severely injured service men and women. The homes are designed with some of our donated products and are built to accommodate their injuries to create an environment in which families can thrive. We have provided in-kind materials and worked on-site to build homes for veterans through Purple Hearts for Homes and the Gary Sinise foundation.
Lighting Up Cancer Research
It is no secret National Gypsum has a strong reputation for serving the community, and the relationship with the Charlotte Leukemia & Lymphoma Society serves as a powerful reminder of the company's commitment to helping others. In the Charlotte Headquarters office, there is no better ambassador for partnership between the two organizations than Change Specialist George Kutcher.
The involvement began in 2007 when Kutcher was asked to participate in a community service project. A simple volunteer agreement quickly turned into a leadership position for Kutcher. Only a few hours after he agreed to participate in the 2007 Light the Night walk, he received a phone call that would catapult him from participant to team captain, a position he still maintains today. After watching both of his parents battle cancer, Kutcher realized how the National Gypsum team could make a difference for all of those impacted by cancer.
In the past 12 years, National Gypsum has raised more than $70,000 for the Light the Night walk. When asked what drives associates to participate and donate each year, Kutcher says, "it's just part of our culture. We have a strong culture of giving, and it really shows forth in the associates." From bake sales to football squares, Kutcher has witnessed associates show their support throughout the years.
Winkleman Quarry welcomes Tucson Cactus and Succulent Society
We invited the Tucson Cactus and Succulent Society to our Winkleman, Arizona Quarry (Phoenix area) to rescue various species of cactus from the 120-acre plot, the company will mine later this year. A team of trucks and volunteers transplanted all sorts of plants ranging from large saguaros to succulents that could fit in the palm of a hand.
Our Team
Our associates are the backbone of our organization and the cornerstone of our environmental stewardship and corporate citizenship program. Ensuring business integrity, adhering to our core values and making a positive impact are responsibilities we distribute across all functions through our "One Team" philosophy.Read More
Our Neighbors
Being a good neighbor is everything to us. Not only do we comply with state, federal and local environmental regulations, but we also invest in the communities we call home. From job creation to local philanthropic initiatives spearheaded by our associates, we aim to be the best corporate citizens we can be.Read More

Child Care Assistance
CCDF provides child care assistance to low-income families and is designed to increase the quality and supply of child care for all families. Families receiving subsidized child care often must pay part of the total cost. In fiscal year 2010, 998,000 families and 1.694 million children received assistance from CCDF in an average month.
CCDF is not an entitlement; the federal government does not guarantee funding to provide child care assistance to all eligible families.
CCDF has three funding streams: discretionary funds, mandatory funds, and matching funds. Discretionary funds are appropriated by Congress each year. States are also allowed to transfer up to 30 percent of their cash assistance (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families) funds to CCDF, where they are treated as discretionary funding.
State rules determine who qualifies for and receives child care assistance. States establish a wide range of policies within broad federal guidelines. They may set income limits lower than the maximum amount under federal guidelines, establish age limits lower than those outlined in the federal requirements, and define parent activities and protective services in different ways. In addition, states set policies for application procedures, priority and waiting lists, redetermination, family payments (copayments), provider reimbursement rates, and other provider policies. Some states allow local areas to establish their own policies within the federal guidelines and additional state requirements.
Total CCDF spending in fiscal year 2010 (including spending from past appropriation years) was $9.473 billion. Of that total, 79 percent went to direct child care services, 12.5 percent to quality activities, 3 percent to administrative activities, and 7 percent to non-direct services.

The Glendale Legal Representation provided by Newman Aaronson Vanaman Law Firm is both professional and courteous. Our attorneys and paralegals provide compassionate, individualized care for Special Needs children in Glendale, California, and throughout Los Angeles County. With law offices located in Sherman Oaks, we provide easy access for families throughout the area. We believe in serving families of all socioeconomic backgrounds, including those who have traditionally been underserved because of their financial status.
Education for Children with Special Needs in Glendale
The educational system can be difficult to get through for anyone, but this is especially true for Glendale families with Special Education students. The red tape can be enormous, and many parents may feel like giving up. Other parents may become so committed to the process that they no longer have sufficient time to spend with their children. We can make the process simpler for families by helping create Individualized Education Plans, attending school district meetings and providing counsel in our law offices. This can help parents to save much of the emotional investment for their children rather than for the school district.
Dedication to Education Plans for Glendale Children
Our dedication to what we do means that we truly care about our clients and their families. In fact, we tend to think of our clients as family and treat them with individualized care. We take the time to understand their situations and to create legal plans that fit their unique circumstances. Our attorneys take the time to listen to clients without making them feel rushed or overlooked. We also provide follow-up care to Glendale clients and often continue providing counsel to families as their Special Needs children head into the teenage years and even adulthood. Our full legal care options include guardianships, financial trusts, powers of attorney and more. Each of these options helps to ensure that Special Needs clients are protected and cared for well into adulthood.

Next-gen antibody approaches to cancer treatment offer improved product profiles, greater commercial success
October 2009
Therapeutic antibodies have changed the cancer treatment landscape over the past decade. Both in liquid and solid tumors, antibodies have become an integral component of treatment regimens that have improved and extended the lives of cancer patients. In addition, antibodies have been able to improve efficacy while not significantly adding more toxicity. In hematologic cancers, Rituxan, in combination with chemotherapy, has become the standard of care in many non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) subtypes due to the improved efficacy that it adds to chemotherapy regimens. In solid tumors, Avastin, in combination with chemotherapy, is becoming a standard of care in colorectal, non-small cell, breast and renal cancers.
The traditional challenge in oncology drug development has been that incremental increases in efficacy have been accompanied by significant increases in toxicities as the number of chemotherapy drugs being combined became unwieldy. Antibodies have overcome this challenge by providing significant increases in efficacy with minimal toxicity. This is possible because of the targeted nature by which antibodies work.
The clinical success of antibodies to treat cancer has translated into significant commercial success. Antibody oncology sales are forecasted to be more than $27 billion by 2018 in the seven major markets. Despite these advances, however, there remains significant unmet need in cancer treatment.
Antibody therapies have historically been used in combination with standard therapies because their activity as monotherapy is limited. Today, antibodies work with a larger proportion of patients and make a significant contribution to overall or disease-free survival as part of a combination regimen with established cytotoxic chemotherapies. Also, each antibody is marketed for only a small segment of patients, while many of the most frequent human cancers cannot be treated with these antibodies. For example, there are no antibody therapies currently available for the treatment of many cancers, including ovarian, gastric, pancreas, liver, bladder, brain or prostate cancers.
This unmet need, coupled with the commercial attractiveness of the oncology market, has led to a significant number of drugs in development (1). Oncology is one of the most attractive therapeutic markets; it is profitable due to low sales and marketing expenses and relatively high drug prices. There are 861 drugs in development to treat cancer (2), many of which are antibodies.
The cancer antibody space is also attractive from a commercial and licensing perspective because several of the leading antibodies will likely face biosimilar competition in the near future. Rituxan, Herceptin and Erbitux will lose their exclusivity between 2011 and 2020. As companies seek to develop next-generation antibodies, they will be faced with significant development and commercialization challenges. Success in the future will be defined much more stringently than in the past. For antibodies, product profiles will need to be more differentiated than before due to biosimilars and the changing pricing and reimbursement landscape. Small, incremental improvements in efficacy and safety will not be rewarded in the marketplace as they were in the past. New antibody approaches will need to show significant improvements in efficacy to command significant utilization and premium pricing.
One of the key limitations of current antibodies is that they have limited single agent efficacy. The vast majority of antibodies are given as part of a combination chemotherapy regimen to realize their full potential. Enhancement approaches are designed to create more potent antibodies that work better in combination or possibly as single agent therapy. Companies are pursuing three types of enhancements to antibodies in search of improved product profiles. These enhancements include tuned, conjugated and bi-specifics. The enhancements all have a common goal of improving upon the efficacy seen with current antibody approaches.
Tuned antibodies are engineered to better engage the immune system's natural killer cells to target and attack cancer cells. A recent example of a tuned antibody in development is GA101 from Glycart and Roche. GA101 is a humanized anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody engineered to increase target cell death. This compound is in phase I/II trials for NHL and CLL. Phase I data presented at the American Society of Hematology meeting in 2008 showed that GA101 produced a 58 percent overall response rate in relapsed/refractory NHL patients (3).
Conjugated antibodies are a second method of antibody enhancement currently being explored by pharma. Conjugated antibodies contain cancer-killing agents such as chemotherapy, toxins or radioisotopes. The rationale for this approach is that the antibody can bring the cancer-killing agent directly to the cancer cell with minimal damage to nearby healthy cells. Conjugated antibodies have experienced limited success as a result of toxicity issues and complicated methods of administration. The toxicity has arisen from the fact that the toxic payload is often delivered to both cancerous and healthy tissues. Examples of conjugated antibodies include the radioimmunotherapies Bexar and Zevalin and the drug-conjugated antibody Mylotarg. More recent approaches in development appear to largely avoid these unwanted side effects.
The third antibody enhancement approach is bi-specifics. One such approach, developed by Micromet Inc., is called bi-specific T-cell engagers, or BiTE antibodies. BiTE antibodies utilize the body's own immune system, specifically T-cells, to kill cancer cells. T-cells are the immune system's most potent killing cells due to the fact that they can proliferate and can kill targeted cells serially. BiTE antibodies have two arms, one that connects to a cancer cell, and the other that connects to a T-cell. Once both connections have been made, the T-cell releases its deadly toxins into the cancer cell.
Development approaches for antibodies are evolving to reflect the targeted nature of cancer treatment. Companies are pursuing niche indications that previously would have been avoided due to lack of commercial potential. The advantages of pursuing niche indications, especially for a compound's first indication, are numerous. Some of these advantages include unencumbered regulatory pathway, few competitors, ability to conduct single-arm trials with response rate as an endpoint and premium pricing. Companies can then expand development beyond these niche indications to maximize the potential of their products. Several antibodies and targeted small molecules have been clinically and commercially successful with this approach, including Herceptin, Gleevec and Rituxan.
In addition to the high level of activity in antibody development, novel antibodies are an area of intense licensing activity and interest. There are several reasons for this interest. First, these therapies have the potential to extend the lifecycle of successful antibody products. A prime example is trastuzumab DM-1 from Immunogen. This compound is a conjugated version of Herceptin. Trastuzumab DM-1 was licensed to Genentech as a lifecycle management approach to the impending patent expiration of Herceptin. In addition, these approaches provide risk mitigation by diversifying a company's product pipelines. By utilizing different approaches and mechanisms against similar targets, the high risk of failure can be mitigated.
In summary, antibody enhancement represents an approach to improving the clinical performance of these agents in an environment that will demand significant advances in efficacy to be commercially successful. The promise of these agents is evidenced by the early clinical data and the intense development and licensing activity seen in this space.

The shooting death of 17-year-old Jordan Davis in November 2012 at a Florida gas station was a shock to much of the nation. Testimony by his accused killer Michael Dunn in his murder trial may shock even more. Dunn has pled not guilty to charges and states that he acted in self-defense when he shot repeatedly into a SUV filled with teenagers listening to loud music.
CNN reports that Dunn acknowledges that it may seem baffling to others as to why he did not call police after the incident. "You're right. It sounds crazy. ... I can just tell you I didn't do it," Dunn testified. "It makes sense that I should have. We didn't. I can't tell you why."
Stand Your Ground Laws
Davis was black and Dunn is white, so the racial overtones to the case have sparked comparisons to the killing of Trayvon Martin by George Zimmerman, which also happened in Florida. A juror from that case was interviewed for an article in the Miami Herald. Juror B37 stated that based on the heat of the moment and the Stand Your Ground law that Zimmerman had a right to defend himself.
Florida's law states in part that "a person is justified in the use of deadly force and does not have a duty to retreat if … [h]e or she reasonably believes that such force is necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another or to prevent the imminent commission of a forcible felony…."
Florida is most closely associated with Stand Your Ground because of the recent high profiled cases, but it is far from being the only state with this type of law. The National Conference of State Legislatures website states that at least 22 states have similar laws. These self-defense laws incorporate the "castle doctrine" which gives people the right to use deadly force to protect themselves in their home.
According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, "Laws in at least 22 states allow that there is no duty to retreat from an attacker in any place in which a person is lawfully present." These states include Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and West Virginia. At least nine of those states (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania and South Carolina) adopted laws with specific language stating that a person may "stand his or her ground."
Are We More or Less Safe?
Whether Stand Your Ground laws are effective at promoting public safety and/or personal safety may depend on beliefs surrounding race and perspective on gun use and ownership. However, at least two civil rights organization have serious concerns regarding these laws.
The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights wrote a letter to U.S. Senate members in October 2013 regarding the civil rights and public safety implications of the expanded use of deadly force. The letter states in part:
"The Leadership Conference has grave concerns about how 'stand your ground' laws foster a 'shoot first' mentality, giving individuals unfettered power and discretion with no accountability. 'Stand your ground' laws make it easier for people to pursue, shoot, and sometimes kill without facing legal consequences. They essentially eviscerate any deterrent to gun-related homicides, providing a pathway to escaping any resulting penalty. In fact, national studies have shown that the number of homicides has increased in those states that have implemented some form of 'stand your ground' laws."
The Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law had similar concerns and issued a press release. It reads in part:
"While the effectiveness of 'stand your ground' laws is questionable at best, the civil rights implications are clear. These laws not only have disproportionately negative effects on people of color, but contribute to the 'black as criminal' stereotype, which plagues our society. In application, 'stand your ground' laws have been shown to disproportionately benefit white defendants while also having the potential for real, deadly consequences, highlighted by the Trayvon Martin case itself. In light of the questionable efficacy of these laws, and the real civil rights concerns, we urge Congress and all policymakers to encourage the repeal and/or reform of 'stand your ground' laws around the country."
Stand Your Ground Expands In Florida
An article in The Atlantic Cities cites current legislation in Florida, which would allow the use of Stand Your Ground to those who merely show their weapon or fire a warning shot. If enacted, the Threatened Use of Force Act would allow use of the Stand Your Ground law as a defense to those who don't actually kill anyone.
Many have heard of Marissa Alexander, a black woman living in Florida who was sentenced to 20 years in prison for firing a warning shot during an argument with her husband in 2010. It's not clear whether changes to the law would protect those like Alexander in the future.
The way that cases are prosecuted may also be an issue. NRA lobbyist Marion Hammer stated, "If you actually shoot an attacker, the law protects you. But if you merely threaten to shoot an attacker and the attacker runs away, some prosecutors will still try to put you in prison for 10 to 20 years."
UPDATE: On February 15, 2014, Michael Dunn was convicted on four out of five counts, including attempted second-degree murder. The weightier first-degree murder charge for killing Jordan Davis resulted in a hung jury. He faces 60 years or more in prison.

It is not new for people to hear about others suffering from effects of drinking unclean water, which is a reason why people opt to have well water treatment options for the water that they drink. There are a lot of treatment options in order to choose which one works best and would definitely clean the water that people drink. Residential places make it a point to have their water treated so that they can make sure that the water is clean and free of any contaminants that could make them sick.
Unclean water harbors a lot of harmful, and even deadly, microorganisms or chemicals. It is important to have a good filtration system or treatment in order to take out all the unwanted particles in the water.
Groundwater, as researches say, is actually naturally safe for drinking. The overlying layers of soil and rock act as great filters and because of this, groundwater is usually free of contaminants. The process of contamination may occur once the top layers are destroyed, or when there is improper installation of the materials used to make wells. When the groundwater lacks the necessary layers to filter out contaminants, the water could then be considered tainted or contaminated. This is where treatments come in.
There are actually a lot of well water treatment options, ranging from iron filters, acid neutralizers, ultraviolet sterilizers, reverse osmosis systems, and a whole lot more. For homeowners with private wells, it may help to do some background research on their water sources, and they could have them checked by experts first.
Experts will be able to tell what kind of treatment options would be the best for the water source. There are also companies that may offer whole house filters so that everything that makes use of water could use treated water. This could be very beneficial to those who do not want their equipment to break down immediately.
It is important to keep in mind that well water may require a combination of different kinds of treatment options in order to cover all the necessary basics of filtering water. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there is no single treatment type known to filter all the contaminants found in the water. For houses with private wells, the most practical and wisest decision is to have the well water tested first. When the contents of the water are known, it is then time to choose what kind of treatment is to be done or installed. Doing so will help a family not to spend for filters that are not needed.
Choosing between different well water treatment options may require a lot of thinking at first. It may take some large investments, but experts say that it is all worth it. Having to choose between drinking unclean water and suffering the consequences in the hospital or enjoying clean and contaminant free water would definitely help a homeowner decide. Water is life, and clean sources are a must.

Starting today, Caitlyn Jenner has released the first of many articles in a series called "The Real Me." In this series, Jenner will explore the LGBT community and the issues that many transgender persons face in hopes of raising awareness.
This first blog, although short, speaks about Jenner's limited experience with the transgender community and how she is working to become more educated on the issues they face.
As she said, "Up until now, I have totally isolated myself from the transgender community, so I have a lot of catching up to do."
However, with her own transition and with the media coverage that she is receiving, Jenner understands the full importance of her position in the LGBT community:
"I feel such a responsibility to this courageous group to try to get it right and tell all sides of the story."
We are happy to discover in this blog that Jenner has recently made friends with a group of transgender women and has heard their stories, their trials, and their tribulations:
"It's been an eye-opening experience for me — and it's mainly made me realize how fortunate I am. I've heard every horror story there is in the book. You wouldn't believe the types of ordeals these people have had, how they have had to literally fight for their own survival."
Jenner seems to understand that her fame and her ability to easily share with the media is an amazing tool and can help the transgender community in so many ways. Rather than just sharing her own story, Jenner will also be sharing some of the stories of her new friends.
"Seeing how my new friends have overcome their adversities is such an inspiration. They are so well-adjusted and smart. I'll be sharing their stories here in the coming weeks and I can't wait for you to get to know them."
By sharing their stories and not just her own, Jenner will be helping the transgender community in ways she may not even imagine. Jenner's own story is vastly different from those of the women's stories that she will be sharing. By sharing a diversity of stories, the world will have a chance to hear multiple perspectives and experiences. The more experiences, the more likely more transgender youth or persons will be able to relate to them.
Additionally, it will assist in showing those that aren't transgender a wide variety of experiences of transgender people which will hopefully foster more understanding and awareness of the trans community and the issues they face.
Jenner ends her blog on a positive note, a note that may be become her signature phrase: "Let's live our true selves and make a positive difference while doing it."

The Opposition in the Rajya Sabha questioned the governments preparedness to implement GST and urged for a mechanism to insulate taxpayers from harassment

New Delhi: The Rajya Sabha on Wednesday took up the four bills related to the goods and services tax (GST), with the Opposition questioning the government's preparedness to implement the indirect tax regime and urging for a mechanism to insulate taxpayers from harassment by tax authorities.
Initiating a debate on the bills, deputy leader of Congress Anand Sharma said, "It is important that as you go for implementation, both the Centre and the state governments should create an institutional mechanism which protects or insulates the taxpayers from harassment."
He said the government should not create multiple windows of tax harassment, search, seizure and arrests which is "already happening". "If it leads to that situation, then surely you will not be helping the economy and the industry nor the consumers," the former Union minister said while speaking on the debate on The Central GST Bill, 2017; The Integrated GST Bill, 2017; The GST (Compensation to States) Bill, 2017; and The Union Territory GST Bill, 2017 which were passed by the Lok Sabha last week.
Sharma urged finance minister Arun Jaitley and the GST Council to keep most of the goods, which are used by the common man, at the tax rate of 5%. He said the government should "resist the temptation" to bring maximum goods and services under the rate of 18%, cautioning that such a move will be inflationary.
A moderate rate would facilitate compliance, he said. "Are we actually going to create an efficient tax structure, reduce the burden of compliance, ensuring that the final GST rate will not be too high? I have my doubts. It is because multiple GST rates have been introduced," he said.
He also raised concerns about the government's preparedness to implement the GST in the midst of the financial year, saying there is hardly any time left now as the Government is keen to roll out the indirect tax reform from July 1.
He also asked whether the government will subsume all the multiple cesses that have been imposed in the past into the GST, terming these as an "additional tax burden". "When we look at the global scenario, the GST rate is below 18%," Sharma said. He said there is no safeguard clause and no proposal on how the government will address inflation arising out of the implementation of the GST.
If the government keeps the Service Tax at the model GST rate of 18%, it will translate into a 3.5% increase, which will be "hugely inflationary", he said. Sharma said the GST negates the 'ease of doing business' environment as businesses will need to acquire registration in every state they wish to operate in. He suggested the government to set up a comprehensive registration authority.
He said the harsh provisions related to the recovery of tax should not be implemented during the transition phase of the GST. Sharma also sought to know what will happen to the exemptions given to North East and Special Category states and the Special Economic Zones.

Both the Bollinger Bands (gold) and Keltner Channels (purple) are trend following indicators with a volatility based envelope as you can see on the 60-minute chart below of SPY, the S&P 500 ETF. They are trend following because the directions of the Bollinger Bands are dictated by the 20-period SMA (Simple Moving Average) and the directions of the Keltner Channels follow the 20-period EMA (Exponential Moving Average). The bands for the Bollinger bands are a multiplier times the Standard Deviation above and below the 20-period SMA. The channels for the Keltner Channels are a multiplier times the ATR (Average True Range) above and below the 20-period EMA. The multiplier is usually 2 for both the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels. Since the Standard Deviation is "more volatile" than the ATR as you can see on the 60-minute chart below The Bollinger Bands cover a wider range, often the Keltner Channels are within the Bollinger Bands. For this reason some traders prefer the Keltner Channels over the Bollinger Bands. Another reason is that the 20-period EMA is more sensitive than the 20-period SMA. On the chart below both moving averages turned down and the price is below these moving averages, which is short-term bearish.
The chart below shows VIX with a couple of 200-day Bollinger Bands. The difference is that the bands are calculated with different standard deviations, namely 2, 3 and 4 standard deviations. From the chart below my guess is that VIX is going to penetrate thru the 3 standard deviation band possibly the 4 standard deviation band which is barely visible on the chart (green). So VIX could go up to the 22-ish range.
$VIX is in an Uptrend
The Bollinger Band finally opened up and VIX, the volatility index moved higher as investors are buying more put options. Below the chart the TRIX oscillator and Aroon trend indicator are shown. Both indicators confirm an uptrend for VIX which is bearish for the S&P 500, shown in the background.
The chart below shows the 50-day and 200-day moving averages for $CPCE, the CBOE Equity Put/Call Ratio. There is also the 200-day Bollinger Band with the 0.6 standard deviation bands. The S&P 500 index, $SPX is in the background for refernce. The chart starts in 2004. As you can see the 50-day moving average pretty much stays in the 0.6 standard deviation Bollinger Bands around the 200-day moving average. Notice how the 200-day moving average is moving lower and lower soon reaching low levels only mached in 2006 and 2011 on the chart. Also notice that the 50-day moving average is touching the lower Bollinger Band. In the past touching the lower band was followed by a sharp move higher.
$SPY - Is this Uptrend Sustainable?
The daily chart below shows SPY, the S&P 500 ETF for the past 12 years with the 50-day, 200-day, 400-day and 600-day moving averages and the 600-day Bollinger Band. Below the chart there is the PPO(50,600) (green) and PPO(200,600) (red). PPO is the Percentage Price Osciilator which is a momentum oscillator similar to MACD. It measures the difference between moving averages as a percentage of the larger moving average. For example PPO(50,600) measures the percentage difference between the 50-day and 600-day moving averages. Notice that both the red and green lines are reaching unusual high levels. Also on the chart notice how the moving averages are fanning out and the lower 600-day Bollinger Band is curving down. Also the price is above the upper Bollinger Band.
When volatility falls to a low level Bollinger Bands are narriwing as you can see on the chart below. This is called the Squeeze. Usually periods of low volatility are followed by periods of high volatility. Narrow bands can foreshadow a significant move either up or down. Since VIX is already on low level this move most likely will be a move higher.
The daily chart below shows SPY with two 50-period Bollinger Bands, one with 1 standard deviation and the other one with 2 standard deviation. SPY has been able to stay above the lower 1 standard deviation Bollinger Band and it has been strong enough to touch or move above the 2 standard deviation upper Bollinger Band during the time frame shown on the chart. In the past SPY moved lower after such an explosive move above the upper Bollinger Band.
The chart below shows SPY with the 20-day, 50-day and 200-day Bollinger Bands. Up until mid-May SPY was walking on the upper Bollinger Bands. Notice how momentum is fading since then and SPY is unable to move up to the 50-day and 200-day upper Bollinger Bands.
$SPY Moved Up Sharply
As I noted yersterday SPY found short-term support and nicely advenced today. The chart below shows the daily chart for SPY today. There is certain weakness on the chart. One of them is that MACD is still below the signal line and the other one is that CCI and its 10 period MA are both below 0. If SPY continues to move up next week my upside target would be close to the upper Bollinger Band.

text: Eric Christopher Pearson is the Artist/ Photographer behind E Pearson Creations. I grew up in early 80′ on the west side of Florida. When I was younger I would draw geometric designs on side of papers, maybe why I draw abstract now. I still have a notebook that I drew back then. Throughout high school & collage I took film then digital photography at local zoos. Many of my animal artwork is replications of these photos. Art was never became a focus during collage or adventuring into real job. After receiving a political science degree from USF, go a government security job been there since. Moved to New Hampshire soon after, which gave me a chance to explore. My desire to draw reemerged when a second cousin made water color of an eagle from my photography. I decided to start with using color pencils and found that draw came naturally. My first work with cheap set of pencils was Flume Gorge, which took year to complete. I became serous about making my talent into a business in 2017, after completing with quality pencils Two Dog for my brother.

(Reposted with thanks to the wonderful people at the The Nerdy Book Club, where I originally guest-posted this.)
Hello, Nerds! I'm Geoff Rodkey, author of the comedy-adventure-coming-of-age series The Chronicles of Egg and a big fan of the Book Club. When I got the chance to contribute a post, I was thrilled–and immediately spent the next several days meticulously crafting a 2,000-word essay about how Bridge to Terabithia scarred me for life.
I was convinced I'd written something truly special–poignant, heartfelt, existentially profound–until I showed it to my wife, who helpfully pointed out that it was actually turgid, boring, and painfully self-indulgent.
So I added my 2,000-word Bridge to Terabithia reminiscence to the unfortunately long list of Things That Seemed Like A Good Idea Until I Ran Them By My Wife and decided to take a different tack.
This is still a reminiscence, it's still about books that meant a lot to me as a kid, and even though nobody dies in an emotionally devastating fashion in any of them, it's still a little poignant–because in a sense, these books are dead themselves.
In other words, they're out of print. They survive in libraries (I hope), and you can still fish them out of the Internet's vast ocean of used book stores, but other than that, they've passed on. If you can track them down, though, I'd strongly recommend checking them out. They're worth the effort.
Well, some of them are. Read on and you'll see what I mean:
THE PUSHCART WAR, by Jean Merrill
I still can't believe this is out of print. It's a made-up history of a war on the streets of New York City between a triumvirate of more-or-less-evil trucking companies and an eccentric band of pushcart peddlers who organize themselves to fight back (with pea shooters) when the truckers start trying to run them out of business. It's got an offbeat, singular, very funny tone, and the plot works on multiple levels–as a comedy, an underdog story, an object lesson in standing up to bullies, and a parable about the vulnerability of conventional military forces to guerrilla tactics.
That last one might be a stretch. But not by much. And The Pushcart War holds up incredibly well, for readers of any age–I sat down with a copy a while back and had as much fun with it as I did when I was ten.
THE MOUSE THAT ROARED, by Leonard Wibberly
This isn't technically a kid's book, but I read it when I was a kid, and my twelve-year-old loved it, so I'm counting it. It's the story of a tiny, Andorra-like European country that decides, for reasons too complicated to get into, to invade the United States…using a small platoon of longbowmen, even though it's the Atomic Age. And, for reasons that are also too complicated to get into, they win.
If this sounds even vaguely intriguing, hunt this book down. It's a gem. The Mouse That Roared was also the basis for a Peter Sellers movie that I've never seen, because honestly, I don't know how it could top the book.
One of several sequels to The Cricket in Times Square, this is the story of how Harry Cat and Tucker Mouse adopt a stray puppy, then have to find a home for it when the puppy grows into a sheepdog and no longer fits in the drainpipe where they live. I read it to my 7-year-old last year, and we both had a fine time with it. I'm not sure why it's out of print when, say, Tucker's Countryside (another Cricket sequel that, if you ask me, is no better or worse than this one) is still kicking around.
Incidentally, I liked the Cricket series so much as a kid that I wrote fan fiction about it. Rereading it as an adult (the book, not my fan fiction), I started to wonder what the deal was with Tucker and Harry's relationship. Two confirmed bachelors, one of them highly fastidious, sharing a one-bedroom in the Theater District? Maybe you see where I'm going with this.
If there was any justice in the world, the McGurk Mysteries would be as big as Encyclopedia Brown. The books, of which there were at least a dozen in print at one point, were about a detective agency of 10-year-olds who solved funny, age-appropriate mysteries around their neighborhood. In Ocean's Eleven fashion, all the kids had a specialty: McGurk was the charismatic, Clooney-esque leader; Willie Sandowsky had a massive schnoz and a correspondingly exquisite sense of smell; Wanda Grieg was the muscle; Brains Bellingham was (big surprise) the brains; and Joey Rockaway didn't bring all that much to the table other than being the narrator, but he–or, rather, author E.W. Hildick–was very, very good at it.
My youngest son would love these books if I could just convince him that the 30-year-old copies I bought on the Internet are okay to pick up even though the paper's disintegrating and they smell like an elderly person's closet.
This was late New Yorker cartoonist and Danny and the Dinosaur creator Syd Hoff's only novel for older kids (I think), and I kind of get why it's out of print. Which is not to say it wasn't a pleasure to reread. The story of Artie, a 13-year-old Jewish kid from Brooklyn who moves to Florida and semi-reluctantly befriends big-eared, slightly odd Irving, still holds up reasonably well–Artie's narration is breezy, likable, and contains a pleasant whiff of Borscht Belt; his problems are entirely relatable; and the ending's even a little touching.
But it's very much of its time, by which I mean the 13-year-olds in it occasionally smoke cigarettes, look at dirty magazines, obsess over girls, and generally act in ways that, while true to the lived experience of 13-year-olds both in 1967 and today, tend to get contemporary kid-lit gatekeepers a little bent out of shape.
Speaking of bent of out shape, the last stop on my preteen literary nostalgia tour is…
Let me be very, very clear: THIS IS NOT A CHILDREN'S BOOK, AND I HAD NO BUSINESS READING IT WHEN I WAS ELEVEN.
But hoo-boy! The Sergeant: Bloody Bastogne was one of a series of pulp novels for adults written under the name Gordon Davis, which must have been a pseudonym, because…hoo-boy! I stumbled on this one at a shopping mall bookstore in Rockford, Illinois when I happened to have $2.25 plus tax in my pocket, and I decided to buy it because at age eleven, I was insatiably interested in World War II.
Whether due to incompetence, apathy, or a loophole in the local blue laws, the checkout clerk sold it to me. And oh, man! Did I get a thrill out of reading this book. Sergeant CJ Mahoney was a US Army Ranger who was expert at two things: slaughtering Nazis in ridiculously graphic ways, and engaging in even more ridiculously graphic behavior with the Belgian farm girls who conveniently wandered into the narrative whenever there was a lull in the combat.
This was like the literary equivalent of playing Grand Theft Auto. You know how some people believe that it doesn't matter what a kid reads, as long as he's reading? They're wrong. But I will say this: The Sergeant: Bloody Bastogne unquestionably opened my eyes to the almost limitless potential of books to expose a reader to new worlds.
Got a favorite book that's out-of-print? Drop a line in the comments–I'd love to hear about it.

|This is really fucked up and sick!!!! And yet there are people making stupid fucking comments like "Oh my god how dare you use my name!!!" or "Why is she wearing that?" Who fucking gives a shit!!!!! To everyone who values something such as a fucking tic tac or some other random thing that doesn't matter in the first place over another human being's life then you are all selfish pieces of shit who deserve the absolute worst of the worst that can possibly happen to you!!!!!!!!! It's as if miles away a nuclear bomb goes off and somebody doesn't care about it and gets a text just a split second later to find out that Justin Bieber is dead, and then all of a sudden it's like the end of the world to them. Yeah that's right don't worry about the most obvious threat right in front of you and yet you're going to overreact over something ridiculously fucking small that doesn't even fucking matter!!!!!

These, and other beloved friends from children's classics old and new, roam the campus, thanks to the efforts of my colleague Ashley Wolff. In addition to Ferdinand (can you see the flowers he's sniffing?), Eloise, Pippi, and Olivia, I've been able to greet Madeline, Frances-the-little-badger, Sal from Blueberries with Sal, Pooh, Piglet, and Eeyore, and more. And who knows? Someday one of my students may create an immortal character who will bring another bit of enchantment to this campus on some distant tomorrow.

Cherokee Tribune and Ledger News
Staff report, Apr 13, 2018
To read the full article where it was originally published, click here.
The Cherokee County School District's online system for registering new students opens to parents on April 16th, 2018.
The same paperless system that CCSD used in March to register kindergarteners for the 2018-19 school year will be open for all students who will be entering the school district for the first time. Parents can log in from home to the New Student Gateway via CCSD's website at www.cherokeek12.net.
"Our new online registration system has been a great success in its first month, with thousands of kindergarteners already signed up and ready to go for the first day of school," Superintendent Brian Hightower said. "This new system not only is easier for parents to use, it also significantly improves our staff efficiency, increases the accuracy of important information and decreases our paper waste. We're excited about this next phase, and looking forward to opening the system to all returning CCSD families this summer to replace that dreaded stack of paper 'first-day forms.'"
The process takes about 15 to 20 minutes, and faster for siblings after entering information for the initial student. Parents enter identification information, such as emergency contact names and numbers, into the secure system, and can then upload legally required documents for enrollment.
After entering information online, parents will schedule an appointment to bring their legally required documents to the school for verification to complete enrollment. If a parent is unable to upload the records from home, they can be scanned and uploaded by school staff during this appointment.
The gateway will remain open all year, and parents who missed the window for online kindergarten registration in March can register their children using the system. The final phase of the new registration system will go live in July for returning CCSD students' families to use in place of completing paper "first-day forms."
