is perhaps best known for his role as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr in Ava DuVernay’s Selma. The film received great critical acclaim, including an Academy Award nomination for best film, but oddly, no nod for Oyelowo himself. Undeterred, Oyelowo is fast gaining a reputation as an incredibly strong and versatile actor, a fact which is proven again in his latest film for HBO, Nightingale. It is a single character drama, with Oyelowo taking the part of Peter Snowden, an American veteran suffering from a mental breakdown. An introvert and agoraphobic, Oyelowo reveals the part wasn’t originally written as African-American, but he saw the opportunity to play the type of person that “I’ve certainly encountered in having lived here now for eight years, but I very rarely see in cinema.” However, despite being more than willing to take on a wide variety of roles, Oyelowo says there is one type of part he will not consider. “Don’t send me your script if you want me to play the black best friend. I just won’t do that. You can feel when it’s literally an afterthought; you can feel when it’s like, ‘Oh quick, let’s get some color in here.’ That I won’t do because it’s disrespectful and, for me, I’m either part of the solution or I’m part of the problem.” Oyelowo chose to follow method acting for his roles both in Selma and Nightingale, which he filmed first. Nightingale was his first time going method for a part; he says that up until that point he hadn’t felt any of his previous roles warranted it, but both Peter Snowden and Martin Luther King Jr. did. “I stayed in character for the three weeks we shot Nightingale and for the three months we shot Selma,” he explains. “Ava [DuVernay] would call me out of the blue at times just to check — I think she was shocked that I was going to go through with this. This is how bad it got: I remember, my wife, we were moving house at the time and my wife called me and said, “So what do you think? Should we go for the gray curtains or the brown?” And I literally went, [in the voice of King] “Well, I think we should …” and she went, “Stop! Stop! I cannot talk curtains with Dr. King, we’re going to pick this up afterwards. What on earth are you doing?” So that was the moment I thought, “OK, I’m all the way in, here.” But yes, I just felt, for me, personally, I just felt you can’t half-do Dr. King.”

GLITR Partners With VOA To Adopt Families For Holidays DETROIT — OK, it’s almost Thanksgiving, so I’m ready to officially open the Christmas season. And once again this year, we’re doing that in a very special way at your Great Lakes Innovation and Technology Report. We’re partnering with Volunteers of America – Michigan to encourage GLITR readers to “Adopt A Family” this holiday season. Your gift of $150 will adopt a family of four, providing clothing for two children, food for a holiday meal, and a special gift for each child. “Of course, any donation amount is appreciated,” said Emilie Rohrbach, who runs Adopt A Family for VOA. “And if anyone wants to adopt a larger family, that’s great. And if people want to make a bigger donation, we will adopt as many families as we can for whatever amount of money is given.” Donors can be as deeply involved or uninvolved in the family donation as they wish. You can personally donate the goodies, or remain completely anonymous — it’s up to you. Any questions on the program? Visit or contact Rohrbach at [email protected] or (248) 353-4862.

Tesla Cybertruck appears at Giga Texas, Musk confirms 2023 production start Tesla has showcased its Cybertruck all-electric pickup truck again at the Cyber Rodeo event at its new Giga Texas.

At the same time, several other automakers such as General Motors and Ford Motor Company have already brought their respective electric pickup trucks like GMC Hummer EV and Ford F-150 Lightning to the market, throwing challenges to Tesla Cybertruck.

Over the last decade, the number of minority populations, including black, Latino, and American Indian individuals, has risen steadily in the college community throughout the United States. Compared to 68% of white high school graduates, 63% of black graduates and 62% of Latino graduates are entering a college or university directly out of high school, which represents an increase from years past. Some recent studies suggest that should this trend continue, minority student populations will represent a greater number of college students in years to come. However, there are a handful of less than optimistic statistics revolving around minority students that make earning a college degree a challenge. A recent study published by Young Invincibles, a youth interest group that operates nationwide, points to the gaps in achieving a college degree between white students and their minority peers. The most pressing obstacle facing black, Latino, and American Indian college students is the significant financial burden of attending- and ultimately finishing – a degree program. According to the research, the cost of attendance has a comparatively greater impact on minority families and students than it does for white families, based on the fact that minority households tend to have lower wages and total discretionary income than white households in most instances. Similarly, minority students tend to enroll in for-profit colleges and universities more often than white students which can put an added cost burden on families wishing to pay for their child’s education. With these statistics in mind, it is no surprise that while colleges and universities throughout the country often have a desire to increase the diversity of their campus and to bring on students who offer unique perspectives to their schools, the pathway to do so boils down to offering some degree of financial assistance. Minority scholarship programs funded directly through the school are one route students can take to boost their financial picture and ultimately earn their degree without the burden of student debt. Additionally, there are several programs outside the confines of college and university foundations that provide financial assistance by way of scholarship funds to well-qualified minority students. Below are some of the minority scholarships that students may want to consider when deciding how to best fund their higher education goals. 7 Scholarships for Minorities APA Judith McManus Price Scholarship Website: This minority scholarship offers awards ranging from two thousand dollars to four thousand dollars. African American, Hispanic American, and Native American female students are eligible to apply for this award. Students must be U.S. citizens and plan to have a career in public sector planning. ASA Minority Fellowship Program Website: This program provides awards of up to $18,000 to eligible students. This award is open to incoming or continuing students who are studying sociology. Students must be from a minority background and must plan to engage in research related to mental health concerns. As such, MFP Fellows are chosen based on the demonstrated commitment to mental health issues, academic achievement, previous scholarship potential and writing skills, potential to engage in cutting-edge research, financial need, and membership in an underrepresented group. EPP Undergraduate Scholarship Program Website: The program provides ten awards of up to $32,000 each. The deadline for this application is January 30th. The aim of this program is the increase the number of students interested in atmospheric, oceanic, or environmental degree programs. The funding covers $8,000 per year and a stipend for a summer internship. In order to be eligible, students must be full-time, U.S. citizens in their third or fourth year of studies. A minimum of a 3.0-grade point average is required, and minority students are strongly encouraged to apply. Gates Millennium Scholars Program Website: This program offers one of the top minority scholarship opportunities for students. This award, which is funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, aims to increase the number of promising minority applicants who attended college. Students must be from one of the following minority groups: African American, American Indian/Alaska Native, Asian Pacific Islander American, or Hispanic American. Furthermore, students must be a citizen of the United States and have a minimum grade point average of 3.30. Students are also required to have shown exceptional leadership skills through their involvement in volunteer activities through their community or school. Students must show financial need by qualifying for Federal Pell Grant eligibility. Students must plan to enroll in college for the first time. They are also required to have both a nominator and a recommender. Students may request funding for any discipline. More information, as well as application instructions, can be found on the Gates Millennium Scholars Program website. ACS Scholars Program Website: The program offers renewable scholarships for minorities of $5,000 to traditionally underrepresented college students, including African American, Hispanic, and American Indian individuals. These scholarships for minorities are available to high school seniors and first-year college students, sophomores, or juniors focusing their educational goals on earning a degree in chemical sciences or chemical technology fields. To qualify, an applicant must be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, have a GPA of 3.0 or higher in chemistry or science, and demonstrate a financial need based on the FAFSA application. Additional information on the ACS Scholars Program can be found on their website. Ronald McDonald House Charities The Charities provide three different minority scholarship awards each year with a preference given to college students of African American, Asian, or Hispanic descent. The individual scholarship awards range from $1,500 to $2,500 and may be renewable. Applicants for a Ronald McDonald House Charities scholarship must be U.S. citizens, show academic achievement, leadership, and community involvement, and must present a financial need. Information about the scholarships can be found on the organization’s website. The Jackie Robinson Foundation Website: The foundation offers scholarships to minorities of up to $28,000 over the course of a four-year degree. High school students who have shown leadership potential throughout their educational career and who are able to show a clear financial need are encouraged to apply from November 1stthrough February 15th. In addition to scholarship awards, the foundation offers assistance with mentorship and career planning for recipients throughout their college tenure. High school seniors and their families can gather additional information about the Jackie Robinson Foundation scholarship program by visiting the foundation’s website. Final Thoughts In today’s saturated job market, a college degree is a requirement for most entry-level careers, but the economic disparities between white and minority students make the task of funding a college degree seem insurmountable for some families. Fortunately, the minority scholarships listed here lend a necessary helping hand in securing a portion of financing necessary to fill the higher education gap for minorities from a variety of social and financial background. For qualified students, scholarships for minorities allow individuals to rely less heavily on family contributions and public or private student loan lending, as these awards do not have to be repaid. The financial help that scholarships provide over the course of a college career can be life-changing. In addition to the above grants, minority students may want to consider exploring funding through their current school or state in which they reside, or searching online for available scholarships based on their ethnicity, desired degree program, or community interests and involvement.
Adasaurus is a Dromaeosaur theropod dinosaur from the Upper Cretaceous. It lived in what is now Central Asia. It was a small carnivore, with a large, sickle-shaped claw on the second toe of each hind foot. An adult was probably about 6.2 feet (2 meters) long. Two specimens of Adasaurus have been found, both from the Gobi Desert of southern Mongolia. One is an incomplete skeleton with partial skull, including the vertebral column except the back of the tail, all three bones of the pelvis, the shoulder girdle and the hindlimbs. The second specimen includes the back end of another skeleton, including the hindlimbs. Both specimens are in the collection of the Mongolian Geological Institute in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. The age of the strata, like most of Mongolia's later Cretaceous sediments, is not known for certain. It is thought to be somewhere between 74 and 65 million years ago. Other dinosaurs found in this formation include Tarbosaurus, Anserimimus, and Saurolophus.
47. Anne of the Island by L.M. Montgomery When I got home for Thanksgiving, I didn't intend to fully reread this childhood favorite, but between last night and this afternoon, I did. Obviously, I'm not the one making the meal! I remembered the charming characters and events and wanted to revisit those passages that bore resemblance to my own experience at college. I'm afraid my social life has not quite lived up to Anne's, but it hasn't fallen too short either. I haven't received so many proposals yet, but that contributes more to my relief than anything else. Anne of the Island chronicles the college experience of Anne Shirley, formerly of Green Gables. Montgomery expresses many timeless sentiments through Anne and her "chums" and their house mother, Aunt Jamesina. They experience the pressures of studies and social lives, along with the rarely mentioned but present tension of being among few female students. Anne reflects on turning twenty, and the establishment of her character. Her friend Phil tries to conquer her general indecisiveness as well as decide who to marry. Sidenote: Philippa Gordon or "Phil" is one of my favorite characters in any book ever. She reminds me of a couple of my most light-hearted, impulsive friends. Anne wrestles with money woes, scholarly woes, literary woes, and romantic woes as well. She writes a story for which the most just criticism is her liberal descriptions of sunsets. Reading this book again, and paying attention to detail, those passages are interspersed everywhere. L.M could no more resist flowery descriptions than Anne, and while it is undeniably overkill, there is still something sweet in it, one feels she really did appreciate beauty that much. I can never get enough references to fairyland and "kindred spirits," there is something one finds in the Anne books, and all Montgomery's books really, that you either relate to or you don't. It is like Aunt Jamesina's definition of gumption, " Any one who has gumption knows what it is, and any one who hasn't can never know what it is. So there is no need of defining it (206)."

James Douglas Muir "Jay" Leno (; born April 28, 1950) is an American comedian, actor, screenwriter, producer, television host and television presenter. Early life Leno was born James Douglas Muir Leno in New Rochelle, New York on April 28, 1950. His homemaker mother Catherine (nee Muir; 1911-1993) was born in Greenock, Scotland and came to the United States at the age of 11. Leno's father, Angelo (1910-1994), who worked as an insurance salesman, was born in New York, to immigrants from Flumeri, Italy. Leno grew up in Andover, Massachusetts and even though his high school guidance counselor recommended that he drop out of school, he later obtained a Bachelor's degree in speech therapy from Emerson College, where he started a comedy club in 1973. Leno's only sibling was his late older brother Patrick, who was a Vietnam veteran and a lawyer. Career The Tonight Show Leno worked on late night television. He became host of The Tonight Show in 1992 when Johnny Carson retired. In 2007, during the writer's strike, Leno sided with the writers, even though he returned to his show after two months (without the writers besides himself) so that his staff would not be out of work. Despite leading the late-night ratings, he was forced out as host of the Tonight Show in 2009 to make way for Conan O'Brien. On March 1, 2010, became The Tonight Show host once again, because of poor ratings with both himself and Conan O'Brien. Leno hosted his last episode of the Tonight Show on February 6, 2014. The Jay Leno Show He now stars in his own prime-time comedy show The Jay Leno Show, which debuted on September 14, 2009. Acting He guest-starred twice on the Nickelodeon TV series The Fairly OddParents as the Crimson Chin. His character's name uses the fact that Leno has a large and square chin. Personal life Since 1980, Leno has been married to Mavis Leno; they have no children by mutual agreement. Leno is dyslexic.

These results further rule out sample contamination, and help solidify the case for preservation of cells - and possibly DNA - in ancient remains. Dr. Mary Schweitzer, professor of marine, earth and atmospheric sciences with a joint appointment at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences, first discovered what appeared to be preserved soft tissue in a 67-million-year-old Tyrannosaurus Rex in 2005. Subsequent research revealed similar preservation in an even older (about 80-million-year-old)Brachylophosaurus canadensis. In 2007 and again in 2009, Schweitzer and colleagues used chemical and molecular analyses to confirm that the fibrous material collected from the specimens was collagen. Schweitzer's next step was to find out if the star-shaped cellular structures within the fibrous matrix were osteocytes, or bone cells. Using techniques including microscopy, histochemistry and mass spectrometry, Schweitzer demonstrates that these cellular structures react to specific antibodies, including one - a protein known as PHEX - that is found in the osteocytes of living birds. The findings appear online in Bone and were presented last week at the annual meeting of the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology. .".

(out of 5) Lena Dunham preceded her successful television series Girls with this surprisingly assured and appealing feature film, set among the Generation What Next in New York City. Dunham plays a recently graduated college student who moves back in with her successful photographer mother (Laurie Simmons, actually Dunham’s mother) and sister (Grace Dunham, ditto) and has no idea what to do next. She goes to the odd party, she gets a job as a day hostess at a local restaurant, and has encounters both good and bad with the opposite sex, but at her centre she is completely lost. What’s most appealing about this film, however, is how beautifully it strikes a balance: Dunham’s meandering never goes as far as whiny self-indulgence, but the moments of elation are never shrill or overpowering either (it’s the film Xavier Dolan is apparently determined to never make). A sharp visual palette is matched with terrific characters and some genuinely poignant but never overplayed moments for a wonderful experience.

ATTENTION: SPOILERS AHEAD! The Walking Dead: Recently, TV Insider chatted with Alexa Mansour, actress who plays Hope in The Walking Dead: A New Universe, about some scenes from Season 2 of the series. When asked what it was like to shoot the scenes where her character falls down the stairs, Mansour said she experienced a great deal of emotion. “I think it was one of my favorite episodes to film to date. I wasn’t falling down the stairs, but I would say I felt like I was,” she said. According to the actress, these latest events left Hope shaken, not knowing which direction to follow. “She’s super torn apart. She doesn’t know whether to start befriending people and integrate into this new community or continue with what she and her sister planned by taking down CRM. I think it’s comfortable, you know? surrounded by normal people, there’s nothing to worry about, but she’s fighting an internal battle over what to do next. She’s living a fantasy now, and she’s trying to get back to the harsh reality of what’s going on outside the walls.” , he pointed out. In addition, Mansour also talked about Mason. The character emerged in the second episode of the season, causing fans to start questioning about a possible romance. “I can’t tell you much about their relationship, but Mason brings a lot more to the table than just a future love interest for Hope. of the group,” he said.

The Neptune Fountain or the Fountain of Neptune (Fr: Bassin de Neptune) is a fountain at the Palace of Versailles. It was built under the direction of landscape designer Andre Le Notre between 1679 and 1681. At that time, it was called the Pool Below the Dragon or the Fir Tree Pool. The Fountain is at the end of the long path that features the Water Walk and the Dragon Fountain. Jacques-Ange Gabriel reworked the pool area very slightly, and, in 1740, the lead sculptures were put in place. The new fountain was officially opened by King Louis XV of France. The fountain has 99 jets of water. People admired the force and variety of the jets of water playing over the sculptural groups. The fountain is decorated with stone vases, sea cupids, and three central sculpted groups depicting Neptune and Amphitrite by L. A. Adam, Proteus by Bouchardin, and Ocean by Jean-Baptise Lemoyne. The Neptune Fountain is the largest of all the fountain pools in the gardens of Versailles. Fireworks during the summer months create spectacular displays that are reflected in the fountain's large pool. Gallery Notes

Pico do Fogo ("Fire peak") is the highest peak of Cape Verde, rising to above sea level. It is an active stratovolcano lying on the island of Fogo. The last eruption of the main volcanic cone was in 1675 and all the people living in the island had to leave. A lateral vent (the opening of a volcano from which lava flows) erupted in 1995. The only deadly eruption was in 1847 when earthquakes produced in all the island claimed several lives. Volcanic lava has reached the eastern coast of the island in historical times. Its most spectacular feature is a volcanic crater (or caldera, caldeira in Portuguese) that is about wide, with a border (bordeira in Portuguese) that is about high. The crater has a slit in its eastern wall, and a large peak like a volcanic cone rises in its center that. The central cone is the highest point of the island (2829 m) and its peak is about 100 m higher than the bordeira that surrounds the crater. The lowest elevation of the floor of the caldeira, known as Cha das Caldeiras ("Plain of the Calderas") is . There are, within the caldeira, two villages which were evacuated during the last eruption. Traditionally, grapes are grown on the inner slopes of the bordeira and there is some subsistence agriculture on the caldeira floor. The mountain's slopes are used to grow coffee, while its lava is used as building material. The Fea's petrel (Pterodroma feae), a Near Threatened species of bird, breeds in this mountain. The endemic plants Echium vulcanorum and Erysimum caboverdeanum are only known to occur on the outer rim of the volcano.
Let me break it down: 30 days ago I decided to take a chance and basically commit social suicide. Yes. I logged off Facebook...and stayed off...for 30 whole days. The reason: Facebook had been getting on my nerves. And by "Facebook", I mean the people on Facebook. And by "getting on my nerves", I mean driving me up a flippin' wall. Look. I friended these people. I know it's partially my fault. But when it comes down to it, it wasn't really the people themselves that was grating on me. It was their "Facebook alter ego". The super condensed and mostly fictional version of themselves they choose to parade all over the Internet. But that's not even the reason I got off. The reason I took a breather from the whole situation is because I was beginning to play the same game. Social Networking is basically my type of person's ideal social set-up (remember that whole INTJ post? Yeah, we don't like social interaction much). 1. You get to choose who you want to interact with. 2. You don't actually have to interact with people. 3. There is an ignore button. 4. You decide when and how you want to say something. 5. There is an ignore button (are you getting this?!). Online interaction is quick, efficient, and completely fake. And when I began to measure the value of my day by how many people "liked" my status, that was it. Log off, shut down, stash away. The first few days were interesting. It seems I had so conditioned myself that as soon as I was on the Internet, my first knee-jerk reaction was to click the Facebook tab. How pathetic, I sneered to myself. I shall make a model of self-discipline out of you yet, weakling... (actual conversation between myself and I was slightly less epic and demeaning) And I admit it. The glory to be gleaned from self-denial and discipline was part of the draw. What can I say, I'm a weirdo. I like testing myself. I like to know my limits, and occasionally go the next step. But before I sound grander than I actually am, the majority of these test included: Trying not to fly into a mad stomping fest when a huge bug threw itself in my vicinity, not showing any sign of pain when I pour rubbing alcohol on my occasional cut, and seeing how long I can go with out "going". Kid stuff. But this was the real test. The big trial. The tribulation the Bible foretold! Except...it wasn't... At all. After I got over the initial change of not logging on every time life began to lull, I began to see just how much I missed. I'm not trying to make this sappy and all moral-y, but this is just what I found. I didn't miss anything those 30 days. My friends that live nearby found other ways to communicate (remember talking on the phone, or even stopping in for a visit?). My other friends that live far away just called or did without. And no, I do not "do" Farmville (or any other game that promotes narcotic behavior). So no, I wasn't having to endure fitful nights over the fact that 'ole Betsy hadn't been milked or the chickens had probably been eaten by the yeti, or whatever it is that happens to your (totally non-existent and completely fictional) farm after 24 hours of not slaving--I mean playing. The point is, I no longer needed (or felt that I needed) a website to be "connected". If people want me, they'll find me. That is my motto. That and "Chuck E Cheese is a thug" (four hundred tokens and all I can get is a a Tootsie roll?Are you insane?!). In the end though, it's not Facebook I've learned to do without. It's my need for it. I'm back on for now. I still have a few friends and situations that would benefit from my having that method of conversation available. But it's definitely not the same. In my grandest of dreams, I hope this whole "online connections" deal will just go away, and the days of the written letter will be resurrected. Remember those? No, not junk mail. Actual hand written notes from people you know? It's been that long, huh? And yet we cheat ourselves. Preferring little red flags & smileys, over pretty stamps & scribbles. 30 days without Facebook and what did I learn? To value what is necessary, and forgo what is just plain stupid. And I think you know what I'm talking about... ...Farmville addicts... ~~~*~~~ 3 comments: wow, those pink socks are pretty serious. I'm more of a pale pink kinda girl when it comes to matching clothes to my sword ;) Hi Caitlin, I found your site by clicking on your comment on a post about living without Facebook and wanted to see your post on that. I quit the site too recently after a breakup. I've been out for 5 days and I'd like to go 30 or even more. It set a new standard for who my friends really are as opposed to people who just want to shelve you online for later use. Interesting blog, by the way, it has a very nostalgic quality. :) I absolutely agree with you, Kristine; those who truly care for you (and likewise those who don't) aren't that difficult to spot when the ease and convenience of friendship is lessened. I actually just ended my 2nd FB break and it's definitely worth foregoing every once in a while... Thanks for the read and I'm rooting for you as you take your journey! Best of luck! ^-^

WCTURaps Illinois Legislation n COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)—An official of the National Woman's Christian Temperance Union today challenged the constitutionality of current state laws making relatives liable for the cost of treating alcoholics committed to state mental institutions. Mrs. J. Kenneth W. Miller of Oakland, Calif., recording secretary of the NWCTU, told . the group's executive committee in a speech prepared for a pre-convention session that the laws were enacted to "get the liquor traffic off the hook" for responsibility for alcoholics. Mrs. Miller charged that the laws were "quietly passed" in recent years in California, Illinoi: and "probably other states," under liquor lobby pressure. She said the laws provide that the states can collect from "husband, wife, father, mother or children" of an alcoholic and theii estates for his care and main tenance while committed to s state asylum under penal or wel Keystone K-2 ..

Walker says a faulty instrument made him undershoot his goal by two miles He hit a record altitude of 66V2 miles anyway Thursday. Walker placed blame on a new instrument, an altitude predictor. It is designed to tell the pilot when to shut down the engine or lower the climb angle to avoid over-shooting his mark. "Near the top of the climb I had an altitude prediction of 363,000 feet," the space agency pilot told newsmen after the flight. "So I nosed her over a little. It looks like the predictor was off about 11,000 feet." Walker reached 351,000 feet. His goal was 360,000 feet, more than 68 miles. Walker set the previous record of 348,000 feet July 19.

Who am I and how did I get here? As an infant, the concept of work and career are foreign. The concept of play is not. Somewhere along the way, work becomes more important than play… far more important. Therefore, as we grow up, it is incumbent upon us to figure out a way to reset the pendulum. Welcome to the Finance Patriot. What comes to mind when you think of a patriot? The web defines a patriot as; a person who vigorously supports their country and is prepared to defend it against enemies or detractors. Fair enough. In America, the Country I live in, this is often thought of as having a level of freedom not available in other lands, or at least not as abundantly. However, can man truly live free, if he must rely, exclusively, on the kindness of his employer to provide for the needs of himself or his family? I think the answer is, unequivocally, HELL NO. My Financial Story and interest in Financial Freedom Once upon a time, I was a young man working in fast food. I knew how much I made. I knew it wasn’t a lot, and I knew my parents did not have the resources to let me fall back upon them if I failed in life. However, having watched the news for years, I had this seemingly insatiable desire to invest in the stock markets, make lots of money, and someday live free. The best I can pinpoint my first conversation, discussing money and freedom, was at age 18. At some point at work, I talked to my boss about financial freedom. He let me know that he was very interested in it, he was investing $100 per paycheck in company stock, and wanted to be free from having to work someday. He was kind enough to provide me with a booklet discussing financial freedom. The fire, already smoldering in my brain, was lit with the intensity of volcanic rock. Now what? I had read about Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA’s). Back then, only traditional, tax-deductible, IRA’s were available. I knew I wanted to invest in wealth producing stocks. I had no idea how to do so. Consequently, I stuck with what I knew. I went to my bank and put a cash deposit into an IRA, set up in my name. As I had more cash to contribute, I would go to my bank (in the snow, uphill both ways I’ll tell my kids) and make small deposits. By age 19, I was in College with an interest in studying “something” related to business. I was at a friend’s apartment and one of the people at the house was meeting with, as luck would have it, a financial adviser. Needless to say, I steered myself near that conversation, and asked politely for that man’s card. I need in on this Dow Jones party, and he sounded like he knew how to get me there. So I did what any young lad would do, set up a meeting, and set up my first IRA in a real mutual fund (Putnam Investments). During College money was scarce, but I managed to open up a “taxable” mutual fund with Alger (mutual) Funds. I also racked up some student loan debt at a state school, studied accounting, and graduated. Now I was ready to roll. First job until now Ever since I first started working my (cushy air-conditioned) first professional office job, I wanted to invest more. Even in my early mid 20’s, I kept a spreadsheet detailing my assets (investments plus cash) and my liabilities (outstanding debt). I started out small, and as time went on, I met my wife and she, too, had been saving and investing. I will spare you the details of my job hopping. Suffice it to say, my interest in saving and investing never waned. My idea of retirement was age 59.5. Why? Because that is when you can access an IRA and 401k’s without that nasty 10% IRS penalty. That’s it, right? This is where the story is supposed to end, right? I simply work, have a family, lease new luxury cars every 3 years, and run a marathon with the Jones’. I work straight through, from age 23 to 59.5, and advance my career (and spending) with the gusto of a zombie. At this point in my career, my daily routine was like a scene right out of The Walking Dead. What is a bad day at work anyway, doing a job I don’t want to really do, and not reaping the full rewards of my productivity? Heck, it’s what everyone around me was doing; full of complaints, filled with corporate buzz words, memos, and career advice self-help books. Was this all there was to life? The weekends, those short stints of the free life and retirement, told me differently. At some point in my spreadsheet tracking, I began to forecast out the amount of money I would have by age 59.5. With additional contributions, and the pace I was going, I was going to have a very opulent lifestyle, just prior to dying and having this fruit split between the government and my offspring. Heck, I was going to go out with a bang. My frugal living and desire to be free kept me from enjoying this piece of Americana. I knew I was never going to be able to spend that much money. Frugality was ingrained in me, it was part of the very fabric of my being. As a kid, I was taught to respect the value of a dollar, mostly by example and the destitution of my, otherwise, fantastic parents. I could not see the point of retiring with millions of dollars, when I had only been living on a fraction of that. By my late 30’s, combined with the savings and investing of my wife, the numbers that I previously had only forecast in excel, were coming to fruition. No longer were those hypothetical future returns… hypothetical. In fact, they were real, large, and growing. By this point, I was full into early retirement websites, reading more and more, learning even more that I hadn’t already known or thought about. From Billy and Akaisha at retireearlylifestyle.com, to MrMoneyMustache.com, I was no stranger to this community. These were my virtual peeps, my soul mates. I was “all in.” My Epiphany and where I am today Upon reading early retirement websites like RootofGood, I stumbled upon a virtual person named the Mad FIentist. I always considered myself to have great and in depth individual tax knowledge. However, I realized that there were still strategies, related to early retirement, that even I hadn’t practiced. Given our well watered and abundantly growing flower bed of retirement assets, I needed to make some changes in order to retire even earlier than age 55. Step One: Withdraw all the Principal from my wife and my own Roth IRA’s. Roth Principal withdrawals are neither taxed nor incur a penalty. Therefore, in order to beef up our taxable accounts, this was a great way to add $64k (combined) to our taxable brokerage account. In the future I will write a full article about our Emergency Roth Rescue. We will use these funds in the future to fund years 0-5 of our early retirement, whilst waiting for some Roth Conversion IRA ladders to bear fruit (5 year waiting period). Step Two: Tax loss sell. The idea of buy and hold was all I knew. I knew that market timing was futile, and rarely successful. Further, I also knew that if you stayed in stocks long enough, the market would turn around and stock values go up. They always go up. I did it, over 2015 and during January 2016, I sold some index ETF’s, solely for the sake of claiming tax losses on our tax returns. I was so successful, that we maxed out the 3k maximum tax loss limit in 2015, 2016, and have enough left (carry forward) to cover the full 2k for 2017 & 2018, and a partial loss for my 2019 return. Since these losses are reductions of our taxable income, they will allow me to put more money away, post-tax and at a lower rate, to continue to build up our taxable brokerages. When to early retire and my current status? Today (February 2017) I am currently employed full-time and have started blogging as a hobby. I enjoy writing profusely. Thanks Mom for being such a good teacher to me over the years. I calculate that we have enough invested for me to retire soon, as in perhaps today. There are a few reasons I still work instead of pulling the early retirement trigger, at age 40. - Most days I don’t hate my job and it’s usually not too stressful. Given that I am well compensated, that’s a good spot to be in. I imagine if I was still flipping burgers at a fast food joint, for less than $10 per hour, I would retire in a heartbeat. - The other reason I am not retired yet is due to Margin of Safety. Even as a rational human being, there is always the fear of not having enough. I firmly believe we have enough, but timing is everything. I get paid well so saving more while I can tolerate my corporate job, is probably not a bad thing. Thank you for joining me on this exciting journey and reliving my financial history with me. There is plenty more writing to come so stay tuned. How much do you need to retire? How did you become interested in early retirement and financial independence? I love reading the backstory I how you came to where you are today. Great story and I look forward to reading more 🙂 Thank you, I appreciate your visits. Thanks for sharing your story. Really cool how you think about FI at such an early age. I never considered it until my 30s. I was lucky that I was frugal. 🙂 Thanks Joe. Here is the thing, having frugality down is half, if not 75% of the battle. The rest can be learned. That’s great that you were always frugal, makes giving your employer the middle finger (or politely asking for severance in my case) much easier.

D.” Meanwhile, the French OEM’s 6X certification programme remains on track with three aircraft now test flying. The first flight of the Falcon 6X was on March 10th of this year. Pratt & Whitney Canada is in the final stages of the certification process for the 6X’s PW812D engine. Final reviews are also currently underway with Transport Canada and certification is expected to arrive soon. Trappier said: “Once our intensive test and demonstration campaign is complete, customers will be assured of taking delivery of a mature aircraft.” Each test aircraft is currently flying two to three times a week, several hours per flight. Every aspect of flight testing, from system development, aircraft performance and envelope expansion, is proceeding on track, reports Dassault. Philippe Duchateau, Dassault’s chief test pilot said: “The flying qualities of the 6X are truly extraordinary, even by our exacting Dassault standards. We are extremely satisfied with the way the aircraft is performing during the test campaign.” Dassault’s product support organisation is preparing for the 6X’s entry into service. Spares are on order for delivery to locations around the world to ensure support for flight departments. The 6X is scheduled to enter service by the end of 2022. Elsewhere, Dassault is consolidating its global support network, the firm can now complete major inspections at a range of new locations and dispatch engineer teams to more remote places..” Trappier continued: “Two examples of this strategy are our new ExecuJet MRO facilities in Kuala Lumpur and Dubai, which replace smaller pre-existing operations and are poised to become regional service hubs for our growing fleets in Asia and the Middle East. These strategic moves will elevate the quality and consistency of Falcon service around the globe.”

Hey Siri, thanks for the smaller phone, but how about an Echo-like smart speaker? bigger draw. That’s because the Pringles can-shaped Echo speaker has been a surprise hit thanks to its ability to let you ask about the weather, play NPR news, set reminders, add items to your grocery list and even order pizza for delivery. Your home is increasingly turning into a battleground for tech giants looking to deliver you new, connected gadgets, part of an emerging area called the Internet of Things, which links just about anything that plugs into an electrical outlet so all can talk with each other. There will be an estimated 20.8 billion connected things, including cars and appliances, by 2020, according to Gartner. Thanks to the Echo and Alexa, Amazon already plays a central role in people’s homes. Apple finds itself behind the pack even though it launched Siri before digital assistants came into vogue. And it will have to work hard to catch up. With the Echo Dot, any speaker can get access to Alexa. Samsung has said it might add Amazon’s digital voice assistant to its $5,000 super fridge, and Ford and Toyota want to add her to their cars. Even Google has invested in the smart home, with its Nest unit selling devices like smart thermostats (they also work with Alexa). So far, Apple just has HomeKit, a platform for developers to integrate smart home devices into its iOS still aren’t many actual products developer (which, as of the latest software updated unveiled earlier this month. But unlike Siri in an iPhone,.
Charles Evans Hughes, Sr. (April 11, 1862 - August 27, 1948) was an American statesman, lawyer and Republican politician from New York. He served as the 36th Governor of New York (1907-1910), Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States (1910-1916), United States Secretary of State (1921-1925), a judge on the Court of International Justice (1928-1930), and the 11th Chief Justice of the United States (1930-1941). He was the Republican candidate in the 1916 U.S. Presidential election, losing narrowly to Woodrow Wilson. Hughes was a professor in the 1890s, a supporter of Britain's New Liberalism, an important leader of the progressive movement of the 20th century, a leading diplomat and New York lawyer in the days of Harding and Coolidge, and was known for being a swing voter when dealing with cases related to the New Deal in the 1930s. Historian Clinton Rossiter has hailed him as a leading American conservative. On August 27, 1948, Hughes died in what is now the Tiffany Cottage of the Wianno Club near Barnstable, Massachusetts. His remains are buried at Woodlawn Cemetery in Bronx, New York. More reading Hall, Kermit L., ed. The Oxford Companion to the Supreme Court of the United States.

New York City—Sept. 24 If you could keep your eyes trained solely on the horses jumping the fences, you could mistake this for any horse show. But that’s impossible to do when you’re watching a show jumping competition in Central Park. Your eyes wander up to the sun setting behind the skyscrapers, to the carefully manicured greenery outside the ring, to the passersby perched on rocks on the nearby hillsides, hoping for a glimpse of the horses from a distance. This is the second year for the competition—which is hosted in the Wollman Rink, a venue that more often serves as an ice skating rink for New Yorkers but is wholly transformed for this event. For Ireland’s Conor Swail, it was the scene for his win in the $40,000 Canadian Pacific Railway U.S. Open Speed class tonight. Swail piloted Simba de la Roque to first in the class with a time of clear round time of 57.36 seconds. Todd Minikus was second on Quality Girl (58.10 seconds), and Daniel Bluman was third with Conconcreto Believe (59.33 seconds). “It was great to be here again, to start with,” Swail said. “I was here last year and won this class, though it was a different format. It was nice to come back and win the class again. The venue is just amazing, and it’s great to have a sponsor like Canadian Pacific as well.” When Swail walked Guilherme Jorge’s course tonight, he felt there was only one way to tackle the fences, without many options for different lines, strides or inside turns. “I was talking to the guys, and I think first, second and third place are all very careful horses,” he said. “They’re quick across the ground, and that’s why we’re sitting here.” For Minikus, he’d planned to take it a little easier than he did with his experienced partner, the Quality Group’s Quality Girl. “When I came into the ring, Quality Girl seemed like she woke up a little bit. I kind of over-rode jump 1 because she wasn’t that good in the warm-up,” said Minikus. “After that, she seemed on the game, so I stayed on the same pace all the way around. I don’t think it was too fast to undo anything for tomorrow.” Bluman also left all the rails up. “It’s a shame Todd didn’t stick to his plan, or else I would be in second place,” said Bluman, who rides for Colombia. “I think he didn’t learn from George Morris when he said to always stick to your plan. But it was a suitable course for my horse; she’s fast like Conor said. I was hoping to finish in the top five with a nice, clean ride without going crazy. It worked out great.” Tomorrow night the jumpers contest the $210,000 U.S. Open Grand Prix. Bellissimo Bests $25,000 U.S. Open Under-25 Grand Prix Headed last into the jump-off for the $25,000 U.S. Open Under-25 Grand Prix, Nicole Bellissimo needed only a clear round. But she also didn’t want to go too slowly in case she had a rail later in the course. “I tried to ride the plan I would have had going in anyway,” she said. “The only place I changed the plan was to the last jump. I would have taken a shot there if someone else had been clear. I knew I could take one more stride there by the time I went in and really set him up to clear the back rail, and I was a bit lucky with that.” Bellissimo and Harley David’s clear round scored them first in the class over Kelli Cruciotti and Serenity Equestrian Ventures’ Chamonix H and Hayley Barnhill and the ISB Group LLC’s Beezie. “I’m just so thrilled to be here, and I want to say thank you to The Chronicle Of The Horse and to Rolex for putting on this fantastic event,” said Bellissimo, 21. “To come into New York City and have all the skyscrapers in the background—it’s a really unbelievable experience. My horse is only 8, and he really stepped up to the plate tonight. It’s a smaller ring, but Guilherme Jorge did a great job building the course. I’m a little biased, but it was a fantastic course and evening.” (Nicole Bellissimo and Harley David. Photo by Josh Walker.) Fifteen riders started in the class, and four qualified for the short course. Faults fell throughout, with the most riders faulting at fence 2, an oxer after a turn, and fence 4, a tall vertical also off a turn. In addition to the course, riders also dealt with the unique location of the class; horses are stabled about a five-minute walk from the arena, also in Central Park, and they hack over after warming up by the barns. (See how horses are living here at the competition.) “My horse has a lot of blood,” said Cruciotti, 18. “For me, the walk from the warm-up to the show ring was a nice little calm down for her. She could take a deep breath, and she got focused on what she was doing. The logistics were really quite easy. We left Gladstone [N.J.] at 2 am and got here at 5 a.m., and then we rode this morning and showed here tonight. It’s very well-organized, and everyone executed their jobs.” Bellissimo is the daughter of International Equestrian Group CEO Mark Bellissimo, the mastermind behind this competition, and he was thrilled to witness her victory. “I was very proud of all three riders—and especially the winner,” joked Mark. “It was so fun to watch her, and as a father thinking of strategy, with no clear riders before her I thought she’d just go slowly. I don’t ride, but she took some turns I wouldn’t have taken. I thought it was a great kick-off to a great event. I’m excited to see the under-25 division really emerge. We started doing this class [at the Winter Equestrian Festival] in Wellington a few years ago, and it’s turned into something really special for a group of riders who needed a place to be.” The Central Park action returns tomorrow with the U.S. Open Dressage Grand Prix at 1:30 p.m., and then the $5,000 junior/amateur class at 6:30 p.m., and the $212,000 U.S. Open Show Jumping Grand Prix at 8:30 p.m. See full results from the under-25 grand prix and the speed class.

Asia Bibi blasphemy case involves the conviction of a Pakistani Christian woman, Asia Noreen , for blasphemy by a Pakistani court. She was sentenced to death in 2010. However, she was acquitted by the Supreme Court in 2018. Case background and Court verdict In June 2009, while harvesting berries from a field, Asia was seen drinking water from a communal cup by some village women of that area. It was considered offensive by the women due to her religion, and the cup was labelled "contaminated". This resulted in an argument between them, and the women accused her of blasphemy. In 2010, a judge in Sheikhupura sentenced Asia to death, which was upheld by the Lahore High Court. Petitions were sent for her release, including one sent by Pope Francis. Noreen's husband appealed to the high court. Salman Taseer, the Governor of Punjab, supported Noreen throughout and requested President Asif Ali Zardari to pardon her. Due to this support, Taseer was killed by his guard Mumtaz Qadri. Several appeals were made during this period and the High Court upheld the decision. In October 2014, Lahore High Court rejected her appeal. In November 2014, her lawyer appealed to the Supreme Court. On 31 October 2018, the Supreme Court panel chaired by Justice Saqib Nisar, acquitted Asia Bibi. Although the majority supported the decision, it resulted in protests by the Islamic parties, mainly Tehreek-e-Labaik.

Baselworld 2016 – Introducing the Armin Strom Edge Double Barrel (specs & price) Armin Strom is one of the masters of skeletonization, as we recently showed to you with our in-depth review of the Skeleton Pure Air in Titanium, a watch that is unusually able to combine the beauty and delicate look of an entirely opened movement with the casual attitude and robustness of a sports watch. For Baselworld 2016, the brand decided to even emphasize this mix of both worlds, with a watch even sportier and with a movement designed to be highly architectural. Here is the robust, bold and sharp Armin Strom Edge Double Barrel. Although it keeps the DNA of the brand fully alive, this new Armin Strom Edge Double Barrel is a strong evolution of the approach previously used: new design for the case, new design for the dial and mainly, new visual approach for the very well manufactured in-house movement. While the previous watches of the brand were playing with curves – both for the bridges of the movement, for the indications or for the case – this new watch sums up its concept in its name – Edge. It’s pointy, its sharp and it is definitely bolder than ever. First of all, the case. The Armin Strom Edge Double Barrel retains the overall and traditional shape of the brand – including the signature lip at 6 (to be engraved to your convenience) – but breaks all the curves to brings angles. The lugs are more squared and hollowed, the casebands are now featured with angular protections and the bezel, which used to be smooth (even if boasting a radial brushing) now features some cutouts to make the watch visually more striking. Overall, the case is larger at 46.80mm (vs. 43.40mm for the previous watches) but not thicker at 13.20mm. In this early edition of the Edge, it is made of stainless steel coated with black PVD. This case is complemented by a black alligator strap, with large white contrasting stitchings (secured by a double-fold clasp in stainless steel PVD black). An additional black rubber strap is also delivered. The Armin Strom Edge Double Barrel also introduced a new dial design, with a sportier approach. The off-centered layout is retained but the hour track now features large silvery white Arabic numeral for a good contrast and perfect legibility. At 9, we find back the double sub-dial displaying the small second and the power reserve. The hands are also typical from the Armin Strom production, with their large shape. As usual with the manufacture, the dial features a large hole in the middle, which reveals some parts of the movement, still with this nicely done symmetry. Even if based on the existing Calibres of the brand, the Armin Strom Edge Double Barrel introduced a new visual approach, including newly designed technical elements and new finishes. The wheels now features angled spokes, the bridges are sharp and pointy (instead of being rounded) and the surfaces are voluntarily finished like being raw – which is in fact not the case. Instead of a straight graining or Geneva stripes, the bridges are finished with a cross-grinding decoration. As you can see, the rest of the surfaces are also executed with great care – polished beveled angles on the bridges and the wheels’ spokes, polished jewel and screw sinks, brushed wheels and gears or 3D engraving on the two barrels. And one thing to know is that such finish on straight and pointy shapes is always more difficult than on rounded shapes. The back of the Armin Strom Edge Double Barrel reveals the same decoration theme, rather industrial but still worthy of haute horlogerie traditions. The regulating organ, with escape wheel and pallets made of massive gold with hardened functional areas, is easily visible. This movements features two large main barrels and provides a long 8-day power reserve. The Armin Strom Edge Double Barrel is a limited edition of 100 pieces. It will be priced at 26,900 Swiss Francs.

if there’s something you don’t already know. Or, you could care less about maintaining your mane and just want the hairy details. Either way, you’ve come to the right place. Read on for all things waxing. THE BENEFITS OF WAXING While the objective is the same, there’s a lot to be said for the differences between tweezing and waxing. If you only tweeze, here’s why you may consider the latter. For starters, waxing removes a large area of hair at one time — making it less painful — while plucking one hair at a time takes longer, explains Jessica Coba, CEO of European Wax Center in Latham and other locations. “Waxing also removes the hair from the root, whereas tweezing can cause hair breakage due to the hair not being gripped or pulled out correctly.” In addition, waxing professionals can help you enjoy longer-lasting results — minus the pinch and accidental cuts tweezing can cause. PICKING A PLACE Whether it’s your first or your 50th time getting a wax, don’t just go wherever a neon sign indicates waxing is an available service. Read reviews online at sites such as yelp.com to get an idea of what’s around, and then investigate. “Don’t be afraid to call the salon and ask their waxing specialist if they follow New York state laws by not redipping their waxing spatulas, using proper disinfectants and wearing gloves,” suggests Paula Caldwell, waxing specialist and co-owner of The Image Studio on Troy-Schenectady Road. Also pay attention to titles. “In New York, cosmetologists and aestheticians are allowed to perform waxing,” says Nico DeMeo Teta, spa director, aesthetician and makeup artist at Rumors Inc. WHO SHOULD AVOID WAXING Anyone with active dermatitis or who takes Accutane should hold off, says Dr. Elizabeth C. Smith, a dermatologist. If you use hydroxy acid products such as glycolic acid or retinoids like Retin A, you should stop at least five days prior to your waxing. Made your appointment? Follow these Dos and Don’ts: Do… - Grow out your leg, bikini and underarm hair at least two to three weeks from your last shave before waxing. - Let your wax specialist know if you’re there for a clean-up, or if you’re looking to reshape your brows. Photos help! (They’ll help you set realistic expectations and guide you in the right direction, says Coba.) - Tell your wax specialist about any medications you take. No judgment here! - Pop an Advil before you go, if you’re nervous about the pain. Afterward, aloe can help soothe. Don’t… - Come right around your period, when you’re extra sensitive. (“Stay away the week before and the week of,” suggests DeMeo Teta). - Use any harsh scrubs when you get home. - Go after you’ve just been spray tanning. - Keep going to the same person if the pain is nearly unbearable, or the wax is always too hot. A good technician knows ways to lessen the pain and minimize discomfort. (DeMeo Teta, for instance, applies pressure on the spot immediately after removing the wax.) MY FIRST BIKINI WAX Before this article, I had never had a below-the-belt wax. But if I was going to make a case for why waxing is so great and promise that it doesn’t hurt much (it doesn’t!), I knew it was time to get one. Here’s how it went… Nico at Rumors led me through their beautiful new salon to the quiet hallway of waxing rooms. First, I signed a release form — as you should whenever you’re getting waxed. Signing a release allows the cosmetologist to make sure you’re not on any antibiotics or medication that does not allow waxing until 10 days after you’re finished with the medication. We talked about any meds I take or concerns I had. Then she gave me a choice: disposable thong or keep on my own. I went with the former, as it’s easier for the specialist and I wouldn’t have to worry about wax getting on my garment. She left the room, and a few seconds later, my lady parts and I were lying on the cozy chair, awaiting our fate. Dun dun dun… Upon her return, Nico showed me the hard blue wax she’d be using. She explained that while soft wax is good for things such as eyebrows, hard wax is better for this — as it doesn’t remove any dead skin, just the unwanted hair. The wax they use also doesn’t require strips; it peels right off. With that lesson done, off she went … with gloves on, of course. Truth be told? No. Big. Deal. I’m extremely sensitive to pain — a wimp, if you will — and I barely flinched. Nico distracted me with friendly conversation, so I hardly noticed each peel when it happened. (She made a good point: If a waxing specialist were to count down, “3, 2, 1,” the anticipation would make it worse). She’d lay down the wax, wait a few seconds, peel it off, apply pressure, and repeat. The entire process, including the explanations she gave me here and there, took less than 20 minutes. I was out the door in no time, no pain at all. A few things I’ll take away from my very professionally intimate time with Nico and her waxing savvy: There’s no need for embarrassment. “We’ve seen it all,” she says. There’s no reason to be afraid. They’re professionals! And there’s also no need to go constantly, if you’d rather not. I asked Nico if it was OK to just get this done whenever one was beach-bound, and she said that’s totally fine. I’ll be back for sure. Got more questions? Ask your waxing specialist up front — or consult with your dermatologist. Waxing….Ouch. I had my back waxed recently and man that hurt. Was it worth the pain. I suppose my back was nice and smooth afterwards but it didnt take long to grow back. I may have to stick with the razor
Marco Minghetti (November 18, 1818 - December 10, 1886) was an Italian economist and statesman. Biography Minghetti was born at Bologna into a family of rich landowners. In March 1848 Pope Pius IX offered to him the post of minister in the first constitutional government of the Papal States. However, on 29 April 1848, after the speech with which Pius IX announced the withdrawal of the papal army from the front of the first italian war of independence, Minghetti resigned. Member of the "Historical Right", he was Minister of the Interior in the governments led by Camillo Benso, Count of Cavour and Bettino Ricasoli. He was also Minister of the Treasury in the government led by Luigi Carlo Farini. He was twice Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Italy: from 24 March 1863 to 28 September 1864 and from 10 July 1873 to 25 March 1876. In 1864 Minghetti signed the "Convention of September" with France: with this document, Italy renounced in Rome and moved the capital from Turin to Florence. There were many protests against this agreement and consequently Minghetti was forced to resign. During his second experience as President, Minghetti raised taxes to achieve a balanced budget. He was able to accomplish this, but there were protests against his tax policy and was forced to resign for the second time. Minghetti was the last president of the "Historic Right": after him began the period of the "Historical Left", that remained in power until Francesco Crispi. He died in Rome.

Hlavní strana » English Pages » Introduction to the… English Pages, 5. 10. 2009 It is my great pleasure to be in Albania for the first time and to have the opportunity to present my book “Planeti blu në vargonj të gjelbër“ here today. We had very friendly and productive talks with President Topi and Prime Minister Berisha this morning and I can assure you that your country has a good friend in the Czech Republic. I am really glad that this book of mine has – after Czech, English, German, Dutch, Russian, Polish, Spanish, Bulgarian, Italian, French and Slovenian editions – also its Albanian version. I would like to thank all those who helped to make this possible, most of all the Ambassador of Albania to the Czech Republic, Mr. Qazim Tepshi, whose initiative it was to publish this book here in Albania, the Institute of International Relations for publishing the book, and of course Mr. Adriatik Shino, who translated the book into Albanian. The original Czech version of the book was published more than two years ago, in May 2007. Having carefully followed what has been happening in these two years in the political arena, in the media, as well as in the scientific community, I am more and more convinced that the topic, the content and the message of the book are as important and as relevant as when it was first published. In the meantime, five weeks ago, I published another book on a similar topic in the Czech language under the title “Blue Planet Endangered”. It is a collection of articles and speeches I wrote after the publication of the “Blue Planet in Green Shackles”. Some arguments are new, but the main message remains basically the same. I keep saying that the real threat is not global warming itself. The real threat starts when politicians dare manipulate or play with the climate. I tried to express my strong feelings about this already in the subtitle of my book “Cila rrezikohet: klima apo liria?” My answer to this question is very clear and straightforward: “Liria rrezikohet. Klima skon mirë.“. At another launching of my book, it was in Poland almost a year ago, one participant of the event at the University of Warsaw expressed his basic agreement with my views about the scientific and economic aspects of the issue but asked me where I see the threat to freedom because he doesn’t see it. I tried to tell him that environmentalism, and especially its most extreme version, global warming alarmism, asks for an almost unprecedented expansion of government intrusion, of government intervention into our lives and of government control over them. We are forced to accept rules about how to live, what to do, how to behave, what to consume, what to eat, how to travel and so on. Some of us and some of you had experienced similar examples of that in the communist era and – I believe – we are obliged to do everything we can to avoid similar fate in the future. I very often see that people confuse two basically. All the necessary arguments used in today’s debate about global warming are well-known and it is difficult to add anything fundamentally new to them. What really bothers me is that what we witness can be fairly described as a “dialog of the deaf.” The main problem is that especially people who make decisions do not listen. The preparations for the 2009 Copenhagen summit are one of the best examples of this. We have to keep stressing several simple facts that are overlooked or ignored by the media. First, the increase in global temperature in the last century has been very small, if any at all. Don’t forget it. Second, there has been no statistically significant net global warming in the last twelve to fourteen years. I know that it is not a laboratory proof of the nonexistence of long-term warming but it is a relevant information. Third, the scientific dispute about the causes of the recent climate changes is not over, it continues. There is no scientific consensus about it. Fourth, the idea of a static, unchanging climate is, without any doubts, foreign to the history of the Earth. The climate has always been changing. The panic and the ambitious attempts to stop climate changes continue regardless these undisputable facts. I am convinced that the impact of the small climate changes we experience and will experience upon human beings and all kinds of their activities is – because of their imaginable size – practically negligible. I will use just one sort of argumentation. The IPCC in its model simulations suggests that – because of higher temperatures in the year 2100 than they are now – the world GDP in the year 2100 will be 2.9% lower than without any warming. Only 2.9%, without any anti-warming measures. The same models tell us that the GDP per capita in the developed countries will be 8 times higher than now and the GDP per capita in the developing world will be approximately of people will be far better off than we are today? My answer is that 2.9% of the future GDP is a minor loss. A loss generated by a completely useless fight against global warming would be far greater. To block economic growth by making it more costly is a wrong strategy. History tells us that greater wealth and developments of technology profoundly increase our ability to cope with all kinds of problems, including potential climate fluctuations. We should believe in human adaptation, in technical progress, in the rationality of free people and should not make decisions for future generations. passive players in the hands of lobbyists, of producers of green technologies, of agrobusiness firms producing ethanol, of trading firms dealing in carbon emission rights, etc., who hope to make billions at our costs. There is no altruism there. It is a political and/or business cold-hearted calculation. Individual freedom, not unnatural wisdom of governments, is the key. I have to repeat my question: Cila rrezikohet?” My answer is: liria. Dhe prosperiteti. Václav Klaus, Institute of International Relations, Tirana, October 5,.

Lawrence of Arabia is a British epic movie from 1962, based on the life of T. E. Lawrence. It stars Peter O'Toole as the title character, along with Omar Sharif and Alec Guinness. The opening scene of the movie shows Lawrence dying in a motorcycle accident. The movie then goes into a series of flashbacks (past events) from his life. The 1982 movie Gandhi follows the story pattern of Lawrence of Arabia's: after the main character dies at the start, it moves into a series of flashbacks from Gandhi's life. Lawrence of Arabia won seven Academy Awards, one of them for Best Picture. Considered one of the greatest movies ever made, it has appeared on AFI's 100 Years... 100 Movies list (as the number five selecion). A director's cut of the movie, running at 216 minutes, has no women talking in it.
Lesson PlansBack to lesson plans archive April 8, 2014 Toxic trial: taking responsibility for environmental problems – Lesson Plan By Katie Gould, PBS NewsHour Teacher Resource Producer Introduction This lesson plan and student contest were created to accompany a story from The Center for Investigative Reporting and the Guardian about toxic waste in the U.S. In part one, students will participate in a mock trial designed to help them process the story and recognize an important takeaway message: everyone is responsible to some degree for the problem of toxic waste and everyone can be part of the solution. In part two, students will be asked to develop a plan of action that could include becoming involved in a community project to improve the environment. Students who wish to share their work can post 15 second videos on Instagram about their project, their progress and the outcome from March 10 up to April 16. NewsHour Extra, CIR and the Guardian will choose the best entries. The winners will receive CIR student memberships and the opportunity for their class to Skype with the journalists who reported the story. The winning entries will be featured in PBS NewsHour Extra’s Earth Day coverage. In reality, these questions are often already settled by laws and investigations. But the lesson plan calls for a mock trial, with the CIR/Guardian story as the inspiration. The basic idea: This case is being tried to determine if the defendants are responsible for creating the problem of toxic waste. The jury will also decide who is responsible for solving the problem moving forward. The four groups that are on trial are: - Average people living in the U.S. who purchase cell phones, computers, etc. that produce byproducts of toxic waste. - The Environmental Protection Agency – the government agency responsible for creating the Superfund program and carrying it out. - Two of the technology companies that caused the toxic waste damage in the 60’s that we are still cleaning up today – Intel Corp. and Fairchild Semiconductor Corp. - The companies that run the waste treatment plants that have received repeated fines for not disposing of toxic waste properly – Calgon in Catlettsburg, Ky., and the Environmental Quality Company in Belleville, Mich. The goal of the trial is to decide: - How responsible is each group for the toxic waste problem? - How responsible should each group be for solving the toxic waste problem? The “jury” (each person in the class is on the jury and will have one vote) will render a verdict by assigning each group: - A percentage of the responsibility for causing the problem of toxic waste - A percentage of responsibility they should have in solving the problem moving forward Please see the example below Responsibility for the problem Group 1 (EPA) – I have awarded the EPA 25 percent responsibility because cleanup efforts are insufficient …and so on. The verdict process The judge (the teacher) will collect the students’ responses and calculate the average response for both verdicts to present the following class. Immediately after the teacher has collected the responses they will take a quick vote to see if all students found each group at least 1 percent (or more) responsible. Then the judge should take a quick vote to see if students found each group at least 1 percent (or more) responsible for helping solve the problem of toxic waste. Before the next class the teacher should calculate the average percentage each student assigned to the four groups and that will be the verdict. For example, Group 1 has been found to be responsible for 25 percent of the problem of toxic waste. After the trial, students will consider environmental responsibility within their own community and may compete in the Instagram contest for the best project if they wish. Subjects Science, social justice, English language arts Estimated time - 20 minutes during the prior class to explain the simulation and assign roles to students - 45 minutes for students to read their profiles, practice and collaborate in groups to prepare for the trial (this can be done in class or for homework) - One 90-minute class period for the mock trial and explaining the environmental project to students Grade level Middle and high school Materials - List of roles (for teacher) - Character profiles (individualized for each student’s role) - Lawyer’s guidelines and questions (for lawyers) - Judge’s guidelines (for the teacher) - One-page synopsis of article (for all students) - Superfund-Basic information page (for all students) - Glossary (for all students) - List of witnesses and evidence in order (for all students and the teacher) - Trial note shell and verdict (for all students) - Project page(for all students) Day 1: The class before the trial (20 minutes) Warm up activity Out of sight out of mind - Ask students to answer the following questions by raising their hands. “How many of you use a cell phone? How many of you use a computer?” Then ask, “If you knew that building the microchips inside of those products creates toxic waste that can and has resulted in injury, birth defects and even death, would you feel differently about them?” Take a vote. - Pass out the “Glossary” to students and ask them what a Superfund site is. Then ask, “How many of you think you live near a toxic waste (Superfund) site?” Show students the map of Superfund sites on the board and enter in their ZIP code (B. Map showing all the Superfund sites in the country. You can search for them using ZIP code and type.) - Now explain to students that they are going to learn about environmental responsibility in the U.S. by putting different groups on trial. They will also decide who should be responsible for cleaning up toxic waste. - Pass out the “Basic Information for students” and read through it with them. - Next, you will want to assign each student a role (lawyer or witness) and provide them with the materials they need to be successful on the day of the trial. You will want to provide every student: - 1 page synopsis of CIR/Guardian article - Superfund-Basic information page - Glossary - List of witnesses and evidence in order - Trial note shell and verdict page Witnesses The groups that will testify (two witnesses at a time) are: - Average people living in the U.S. (4 witnesses): Two neighbors from the Love Canal disaster and two “average” U.S. teenagers - The Environmental Protection Agency (4 witnesses): A Superfund expert, a “Pump and treat” expert and two chemical specialists (one on carbon and one on TCE and Dioxins) - Technology sector – those who caused the damage in the 60’s: One spokesperson from Intel and one spokesperson from Fairchild - Waste disposal management (2 witnesses): A manager from the Calgon’s carbon regeneration facility in Catlettsburg, Ky., and a manager from the Michigan Disposal Waste Treatment Plant in Belleville, Mich., run by the Environmental Quality Company. There will be two or four students (see above) assigned for each group of witnesses (12 total) and pairs will testify together. You should provide each witness his or her “Character profile” that includes their background story, any evidence they should be ready to explain to the jury and their role in the creation and solution of the toxic waste in the United States. You should instruct each witness to practice his or her role and be prepared to answer questions from lawyers on both the prosecution and the defense. They should dress, talk and behave in character during the trial. Lawyers - A prosecution and defense lawyer for people living in the U.S. - A prosecution and defense lawyer for the Environmental Protection Agency - A prosecution and defense lawyer for the technology sector – those who caused the damage in the 60s - A prosecution and defense lawyer for the waste disposal management There will be at least two lawyers (prosecution and defense) for each group. Depending on your class size you may want to double up and have two lawyers for the defense and prosecution in some groups. You should provide each lawyer with the same “Character profiles” provided to the witnesses that they will be questioning on the stand. You should also provide the lawyers with their “Lawyer’s guidelines and questions”. You should instruct each lawyer to be prepared to give an opening statement (1 minute), question the witnesses from their group (~2 minutes) and make a closing statement (1 minute). They should dress, speak and behave like a lawyer during the trial. Judge On the day of the trial, the judge (teacher) will have a list of the order the witnesses will be called and evidence in order to be shown. They will be responsible for moving the trial along, getting the evidence (CIR/Guardian interactives and images) up on the board (either a computer with a projector or a hard copy for the class to look at if technology is not available), and releasing the verdict to the class. Suggestions for students: - Witnesses are encouraged to work together to prepare for the trial as they will take the stand together and are able to answer questions as a team. - Encourage students to dress up and take on the role of their character during the trial (bonus points perhaps) - At this point you can allow students to prepare for the trial or you can assign the preparation for homework. Day 2: Part I – Toxic waste trial & Part II – Introduction to student project Main activities Part I: The trial Suggestions: Before class, set up the room so that there is a place for the judge to sit (facing the class at the front of the room), the lawyers (facing the judge like in a regular court room) and a “witness stand” that can accommodate two students (two desks pushed together facing the crowd/jury). Pass out “Trial note shell and verdict page” and instruct students to take notes during the trial (mention that you will be collecting their notes at the end of class.) Give students a few minutes to prepare and then promptly start the trial. The judge (teacher) should read out the instructions and script from the Judge’s guidelines. The entire script, roles and trial process is described in detail in the Judge’s guidelines. What follows here is a less substantive walk through the process. Ask the first set of lawyers to take their seats and allow lawyers one minute to make their opening statement as to why the first group of clients are guilty or not guilty (prosecution first and then defense). The judge will call the first group of witnesses to the stand and lawyers for the prosecution will start by asking the first questions (max two minutes for questioning) Witnesses will briefly respond to questions and explain any evidence they need to share with the “jury”. Then the defense will have an opportunity to question the witnesses (max two minutes for questioning). Once the first group of witnesses has been questioned by both prosecution and defense the judge will call the next group of lawyers and witnesses to the stand and they will repeat the process. NOTE: Lawyers for the group “average citizens” will need to question both the “Love Canal neighbors” and the “average teenager living in the U.S.” one after the other. Similarly, the lawyers for the EPA will question both the “Environmental Protection Agency – Superfund expert and “Pump and treat” expert and the “Environmental Protection Agency – Chemical specialists”. Follow the schedule and once all witnesses and lawyers have gone ask the lawyers to come to the front of the class (one group at a time) and make their closing remarks (1 minute each). Once they have finished, students should decide the verdict (on page two of their note shell) for each group on the following questions: - How much of the toxic waste problem is each group responsible for? - To what extent should each group be responsible for solving the problem? Each student should use the empty pie charts to assign responsibility for the toxic waste problem and for responsibility for the solution. Students should decide what percentage of responsibility for the problem and solution each group has by divvying up the pie chart. They should write a one sentence explanation for why they awarded each group what they did. Pass out the “Project Page” for students to start reading while the others are finishing. Once students have finished, the judge (teacher) will collect the verdicts (pie chart answers.) Let students know that you will find the average percentage of responsibility the class gave to each group by next class at the latest, but for now you want to poll the class for some immediate feedback. Note: the averages may not add up perfectly with the pie charts, but the teacher should reveal what percentage the class held each group responsible anyway. The judge will now ask the class the following questions and ask students to answer by a show of hands: Responsibility for causing the problem - How many of you gave the Environmental Protection Agency more than 1 percent of the responsibility for the toxic waste? - How many of you gave the technology companies – Intel and Fairchild more than 1 percent of the responsibility for the toxic waste? - How many of you gave the waste disposal management companies more than 1 percent of the responsibility for the toxic waste mess? - How many of you gave the average people living in the U.S. more than 1 percent of the responsibility for the toxic waste? Responsibility for solving the problem - How many of you gave the Environmental Protection Agency more than 1 percent of the responsibility to solve the toxic waste? - How many of you gave the technology companies – Intel and Fairchild more than 1 percent of the responsibility to solve the toxic waste? - How many of you gave the waste disposal management companies more than 1 percent of the responsibility to solve the toxic waste? - How many of you gave the average people living in the U.S. more than 1 percent of the responsibility to solve the toxic waste? Now explain to students what their answers meant: >> Any group that had at least one percent of the responsibility is considered to be part of the problem and any group that had at least one percent responsibility of the solution should therefore act. Part II: Introduction to student project Once the complexity of the situation is revealed (everyone is found guilty to some degree and everyone should be involved in helping) the teacher should explain to students that there are things that they can do right in their own community to make a difference. To catch students attention show the PBS NewsHour video “Intro Video for Environment Lesson Plan”. Pass out the “Project page” to students and briefly go through it helping them understand the many options they have to act locally. Make sure to show them the resource page “Inspire, Inform, Act” so they know where they can go for help with all the steps of their project. Next, explain to them that CIR, the Guardian and PBS NewsHour Extra want to know what you could do to make a difference in your community and is holding a contest for the best project.

The Awkward Re-run Do you ever go over ta' the Wal-Mart to do some “roll-back” shoppin'”? It is my least favorite activity of the entire week, but you have to eat, so you go and crack it out. So last night almongst the bitter grapes in the Wal-mart produce aisle I ran into my neighbor, who I know sort of, but not really. So we just made idle chit-chat and shared some obligatory pleasentries, and then I finished with, “It was good talking to you. I will see you later.” But as I was walking down the next aisle, who did I see? My neighbor walking towards me. I didn’t realize that when I said I would see him later it would be two seconds later. What do you say? It’s not like I hated the guy but I had already finished up our last conversation and I didn’t have any fresh new material to talk to him about. So I just said the first thing that popped into my head, “Heeeeeey neighbor. Didn’t I just see you? Ha-ha! Alright we’ll talk to you later.” And then I quickly got out of there, and moved three aisles ahead of him so this awkwardness wouldn’t continue. So, there I was in the toilet paper aisle, squeezing me some Charmin Ultra (which, by the way, if you haven’t tried it, is a little piece of heaven on your blind side) when I run into my neighbor again. So, my heart is pounding and I just want to run the opposite way with my cart. But I am a grown up, so through a strained smile, I do the pretend “punch in the stomach” and say, “I keep running into you!”. And then I bolt with my cart and run five aisles ahead of him. I don’t know if we had identical shopping lists but I sware I ran into him like three more times. So by the fifth "run in", the situation has gotten so awkward, that when we saw each other heading down the same aisle toward each other we didn't even make eye contact, and pretended we were complete strangers, even though we are trying to figure out the social etiquette to alleviate these awkward feelings we both were experiencing. So I finally, I had to actually take a time out because the whole situation has gotten out of control. I actually hid in a clothing rack until I could see he was finished with his shopping, so I could finish mine. And I just want to say here, my neighbor isn’t a bad person, he is good people, but it’s the situation that is so awkward. It’s talking to someone, actually giving them a farewell or a “we should get together for lunch” and then rounding the corner and seeing them again…and again…and again. Why is that so awkward? I am not sure, but it usually sends my feelings of social anxiety through the roof! So finally, I get my shopping done, drive home, pull into my parking stall and start unloading my groceries, and you’ll never believe who pulled in right next to me. Yep…my neighbor. (dedicated to Molly-Noooo) (dedicated to Molly-Noooo) and let's be honest. i hate buying toilet paper. i know everyone uses it, but when you are buying, everyone knows why you are buying it. what's more embarassing - buying the JUMBO pack from costco. i remember in college, aunt brenda bought our apartment the big pack and the only way she would let us keep it is if i would carry it into the apartment. let's just say, there was a big decision to make. in the end, i swallowed my pride and ran as fast as i could carrying toilet paper the size of texas up to the 3rd floor of the bc. good times. why don't you live closer? i need more rob in my life. Paige's comment made me laugh also because I remember how embarrassed she was buying t.p. when we were roomies at the B.C. Love reading your blog! That way, JUST IN CASE they did see you, you are off the hook. And thank you for dedicating this to me. I will be sure to duck and run next time I see you. My word verification is angst. just sayin.
Intersectionality or intersectional theory studies the relation between the many different ways that people are kept in a lower social position, controlled, and left out of important parts of society because of their differences. Kimberle Williams Crenshaw gave the name "intersectionality" to this concept in 1989. Sometimes a society decides that a group of people are different from themselves. When they do this, they other that group, or marginalize them. Intersectionality points out that people are often othered for more than one reason. These reasons might be gender race class ability sexual orientation religion caste age nationality language or other parts of identity. Because of this, it suggests that these types of othering cannot be looked at by themselves. They must be looked at together. For example, a person can be othered because they are a woman, a person of color, a poor person, and a disabled person at the same time. These different forms of othering make each other worse, shape each other, and prop each other up. This means that the experience of being othered for all of these reasons is different from what would happen if you added them all up. Because of this, fighting each one alone would not help the people who experience many of them at the same time. Intersectionality says that the different ways people are othered and forced into a lower social position, such as racism, sexism, classism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia and bigotry based on belief, create an entire system. In this system, each of the ways people are held down by society contributes to the other. So if someone wanted to understand how a society began to other a group of people as a race apart from themselves (racialization), they would have to look into the ways that gender, class, sexuality, and other parts of identity shaped this process. Intersectionality began as a way to understand the ways that women of color in American society were othered. The women who developed the theory were challenging the feminism of their time. They saw it as being too focused on the issues of wealthy white women. They felt that this left behind the women who needed feminism the most, and only helped the women who already had the most power. They were also criticizing the Civil Rights Movement. They saw it as being too focused on men and leaving women of color behind. They believed they had a place in both of these movements, and that these parts of their lives could not be separated. Intersectional theory quickly grew to include the relation between all of the many other ways that people are othered and kept in a lower social position, such as sexuality, ability, and the gender binary.

With New York and New Jersey law enforcement officers on his side, Tennessee Titans linebacker Avery Williamson ignored a possible fine from the NFL office Sunday and wore special 9/11 tribute shoes during the team’s game with Minnesota. Now, he’s putting those cleats up for auction with proceeds going to Warrior Wishes. Williamson mentioned plans to wear the cleats last week, which drew the attention of the league. The NFL has strict uniform rules that mandate all shoes bear the same color scheme. After the Nashville Tennesseean reported the threat of a fine and the story went viral, police associations in New York and New Jersey offered to pay any penalty enforced by the league. Williamson’s teammates did the same. He came out for warm-ups in traditional white Nike cleats, so as not to draw further attention from league officials. However, when the Titans took the field prior to the start of the game with the Vikings, Williamson was wearing the special shoes. They carry the words “Never Forget” and “9/11” on the back with the “11” representing the Twin Towers. Stars and stripes adorn the rest of the shoes with red-and-white Nike swooshes. In addition to the shoes, the auction also includes a meet-and-greet with Williamson, two VIP tickets to a Titans game, a signed jersey and the opportunity for another autograph. “I felt like if I didn’t wear them, I just wouldn’t have felt good about it,” Williamson said after the game. ”I felt like I had to do that, just for myself and to represent the people that were lost and the people that do their jobs every day to protect us.” The auction, conducted through CharityBids.com, runs through September 20.
