The Winter Jam Tour Spectacular, Christian music’s largest annual tour and one of the top first quarter tours in the world, made a series of major announcements during festivities held earlier this evening. Streamed around the world via Facebook LIVE, the event—at Nashville's Hard Rock Café—was attended by artists, industry personnel and national media. Revealing a history-making tour first, Winter Jam will be presented on a 360º “in the round” center stage, showcasing a diverse lineup helmed by supergroup Newsboys United.
Comprised of current members Michael Tait, Duncan Phillips, Jeff Frankenstein and Jody Davis, along with former members Peter Furler and Phil Joel, Newsboys United are set to take the Winter Jam stage to deliver a string of the biggest hits from the iconic band’s three-decade career. One of the most popular groups in Christian music history, Newsboys have sold more than 8 million units and amassed eight Gold® certifications, 33 #1 radio hits, four GRAMMY® nominations, two American Music Award nominations and multiple Dove Awards.
Winter Jam’s 2019 blockbuster lineup continues with GRAMMY®-nominated former “American Idol” finalist Danny Gokey; GRAMMY®-winning recording artist and "Overcomer" hitmaker Mandisa; Northern Ireland's "Count Every Blessing" worshippers Rend Collective; Skillet drummer and female solo rocker LEDGER; GRAMMY®-nominated tour creators and hosts NewSong; and Dove Award-nominated Gotee recording artist Hollyn. In addition, the Pre-Jam Party is slated to feature hip-hop recording artist Ty Brasel; rockers Manic Drive; singer/songwriter Dan Bremnes; and special guest former Stellar Kart and Audio Adrenaline frontman Adam Agee. The tour will also include a Gospel presentation from Dare2Share speakers Greg Stier or Zane Black.
Kicking off January 11 at Jacksonville, Florida’s Veterans Memorial Arena, Winter Jam is scheduled to hit a total of 44 cities, making stops at Atlanta’s State Farm Arena; Kansas City’s Sprint Center; PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh; Cincinnati’s U.S. Bank Arena; Bridgestone Arena in Nashville; and Norfolk, Virginia’s Scope Arena, among numerous other top venues, before concluding March 31 at Cleveland’s Wolstein Center.
"With Peter and Phil back onstage with us, we can't wait to bring the Newsboys United show to Winter Jam next year," says Newsboys' Michael Tait. "It's a blast to join forces with such an incredible lineup of artists, and the ministry at the heart of Winter Jam is always evident."
The Winter Jam 2019 Tour Spectacular is produced by Premier Productions and sponsored in part by ChildFund, Liberty University, Samaritan Ministries, Xtreme Conferences, Camp Electric, Premier Vacations & Events, Texas TransEastern and Wayne E. Bailey Produce.
Created and hosted by one of Christian music’s most influential bands, NewSong, Winter Jam exploded from a single show in 1995 to become the genre's benchmark tour. Throughout two decades, Winter Jam has helped provide a powerful platform for the Gospel in major arenas nationwide, consistently showcasing Christian music's biggest artists.
Earlier this year Winter Jam was crowned the top first quarter music tour in the world. Landing at #2 on Pollstar’s “2018 1Q YTD Worldwide Ticket Sales Top 100 Tours” chart, the Winter Jam 2018 Tour Spectacular took the top spot of all music tours, following #1 outing “Disney On Ice.” This year Winter Jam hit a total of 46 cities across the country from January through March, boasting 17 sold-out shows.

There are over 100 North American species in 11 genera in the mayfly family Heptageniidae. They are found in lotic or lentic erosional habitats, often among rocks. They are sometimes collector-gatherers of fine organic particles; however, they typically feed by scraping algae and periphyton from rocks and other substrates at the bottom of the stream. They have a flattened head and body, which allows them to cling to the tops of the rocks, even in fast flowing water, without being swept away, or to squeeze among rocks. This flat body shape makes them great at clinging to surfaces, but fairly poor, floppy swimmers. The emerging duns (sub-adults) are important in the fly-fishing community, with several genera in the family serving as models for tied flies.
Family: Head and body dorsoventrally flattened (depressed). Eyes and antennae positioned dorsally. Lateral margins of head visible beside the eyes. Mandibles not visible from dorsal side. Claws much shorter than tarsi. Tibiae and tarsi straight. Abdominal gills on segments 2–7 variably shaped depending on genus and species.

Homo Sapiens and Homo Erectus. In the origins of the species we now call human, there is an extraordinary lesson which bears significantly on how we conduct ourselves today.
The large conflicts of our body politic, immigration, gun control, women’s rights, education, food and shelter for the weak and vulnerable, all elements of our social safety net have a single common thread which strings them all together.Homo Sapiens and Homo Erectus.
What are or are not the bounds and responsibilities of one for the other and if none, are the disenfranchised or weak to struggle on their own and fall prey to the biological imprimatur; survival of the fittest.
The history of Homo Sapien and Erectus is, amongst other things, characterized by their use of tools, methods of hunting, (providing for their kith and kin) and with the very disparate outcomes.
Both species arose in the Rift Valley of Southern Africa and both species had well developed the use of the hand axe, the tool triangular in shape, not unlike today’s computer mouse, which edged with a skil developed of chipping, one harder rock on the edge of another, allowed then existing man to develop the roughly sharpened lethal cutting and killing tool easily manipulated by a single hunter. The immediate benefit for both species was the transformation of early man from a nut, berry, vegetarian to a meat eater. The density and portability of protein afforded allowed the first significant migration which headed the then nascent species North to Europe, East to Russia, West to Spain, and from there, to colonize the world.
Two mission critical characteristics distinguished the species ultimately causing the demise of one and the ubiquitous and flourishing success of the other.
Homo Sapien, over time turned the large and sometimes unwieldy hand axe into the increasingly technologicaly efficient tool of a spear. Ultimately, the technology developed such that it was easily made, reasonably affixed to the end of a spear and in time to a bow, as the tip of a lethal arrow. Such efficiency, of size and lethality allowed for a whole new range of hunting skills which included the group skill set of hunters herding and pressing animals of prey into the waiting arrows and spears of the awaiting line of firepower. As such, the need of a group, to undertake the endeavor, and the success of the outcome in pounds of meat and numbers killed or caught dramatically changed the whole of the course of the civilization of this species, from which came the earliest notion of commonwealth, an endeavor in which all depended in one fashion or another on each-other.
Conversely, Homo Erectus continued to use the more cumbersome and unwieldy hand axe which limited his kills and the provision of food to his own innate skill as a hunter, but without any of the added benefit of the skills of the group, the technology as developed by the group and the greater range and accessibility to food supplies. And he ultimately perished.
In these hyper political times of debate, all in some fashion or form related to the question of the social contract, the right or wrong of our collectively taking care of our commonwealth, weak or strong, or the alternative view which obliges the weak, poor, disenfranchised and less strong classes of woman and children to essentially fend for themselves, is there not a two hundred thousand year old lesson here which will foretell the outcome of one choice versus the other.
Fundamental to the political rhetoric have been the issues of humanity, the pernicious conditions of poverty despite royal wealth, oil wealth, and the persistent separate and unequal class system which has divided families, oppressed women, withheld education and social mobility on the basis of religious teachings; and institutionalized the second class status of women and children, poverty and helplessness as a god-given and natural way of life.
We have said we will fight wars to protect a woman’s freedom. We speak out in favor of the freedoms to unmask her face, be schooled, prevent stoning, travel outside the home, drive a car and possess at least some modicum of what Western women have come largely to take for granted. We have rhetorically espoused the inalienable right of freedom of religion, travel, health, marriage, education and the protection from corporeal punishment.
Whatever the right or wrong, and whether women are or are not second class citizens and therefore are or are not entitled to special forms of freedom or punishment, what we hold out as a standard to preach or teach or try to at least insinuate in our international relations is in ways a greater standard than that to which even women in the US are entitled.
From birth we enshrine in our young the ‘American dream,’ telling them they can be president and that the ceiling there is glass and not easily shattered. Yet to the women in our country, knowing poverty is the leading indicator of educational success, and education is the leading indicator of teenage pregnancy, unwanted child birth, the destruction of a family unit central to the rise or demise of our culture. We have now thirty three states in which a woman’s right to self determination of her own health and health care, headlined by her right to family planning, including contraception and abortion, is virtually illegal.
What does it say about a woman in the US, who only recently realized the right to vote, to work (although paid a fraction of the pay for the same work and job descriptions as men), and now whose sexual/reproductive rights are subordinate to those interests of men and the state?
The facts of history clearly support the assertion that this pathology resides not in women, who may or may not be incapable of judicious decisions about their lives and their families, but rather in a dysfunctional, unresolved and profoundly disturbed psyche of the male who, for his own internal weakness, fragmentation or unconsummated manhood, needs, through projection to articulate the problem as the woman’s weakness. By the right of might, man alone can manage and ultimately adjudicate.
25 Dead, No reply; Chicago. Officer down, Cop Killer, LAPD; 1000 Respond.
A cop killed by an ex-cop triggered a four day manhunt with an accompanying 24-hour, wall-to-wall news extravaganza with as much television coverage provided as during the three days invading Iraq or any presidential election in modern history.
With one of the wounded in the hospital, security included more than 1000 state, local, federal, ATF and FBI law enforcement personnel. Using paramilitary equipment, helicopters, tanks and high tech AWACS units to coordinate this small army, the chase for the would-be assassin combed into the mountains and nearby resort.
Implicit in the question of a culture and society in which ‘law enforcement,’ like ‘congress,’ does indeed take care of its’ own, but not of those it serves, is how come and why? When twenty five people are killed in Chicago on a weekend, the notice in the press is on page 8 and below the fold.
If the twenty five Chicagoans were ‘law enforcement,’ there would be an army large enough to invade Cuba dispatched and it would be the opening story every hour, with side by side live video feed, until resolved.
While 90% of Americans, including ‘law enforcement,’ believe in background checks and assault weapon limits, congress will repay the debt beholden to the NRA, (and the money they provide to themselves), with a ‘no’ vote on gun control, despite the very articulate interests of their constituency and the vast majority of citizens.
How do we come to such an asymmetric care or duty in our social contract? How is it that a job for the congressman, who is voted in and paid for by a constituency, is more important than the social contract ensuring rights for the very constituency who entrusted him with that job?
The patent and automatic answer of any ‘law enforcement’ or ‘congressional chief’ is ‘No, of course not. We are here to serve to people.’ Yet repeatedly, the facts do not support such statements.
Criminality in Wall Street, allowing unwarranted foreclosures and criminal behavior in the streets, thereby resulting in the death of twenty-five residents of one city in one weekend. Criminality in denying abortion, healthcare and food to the needy, and criminality in a society which was founded on rules of a social contract, including equality for all, but which now favors ‘special interests’ repeatedly and predictably violates those inalienable rights.
When a spokeswoman for the manhunt was queried as to why there was such an inordinately large presence, or what would happen next, narrators and spokespeople purposefully use the designation ‘law enforcement’ as distinct from ‘police’, ‘sheriff’ or some other nomenclature like the president or senator, referring to a single person as distinct from a group.
So in the expression ‘law enforcement,’ there is an absolute key to understanding this more than colloquial and now almost idiomatic use of the phrase. Clear in the statement, belonging to the group confers special rights.
The NRA defines the ‘gun control’ debate as one of ‘them and us,’ and it is curiously reminiscent of the Republicans’ ongoing and blanket defiance of Obama passing any law to anyone’s benefit, be it control of Wall Street, which summarily caused the loss of two trillion dollars of private individual wealth and redistributed it to the ‘group’ like ‘law enforcement’ or the ‘Wall Street tribe,’ education, or infrastructure.
In further describing the manhunt, the spokeswoman for ‘law enforcement’ described the scene as “like a war zone…..our deputies are heroes…they walked into raging fire and all placed their lives at incredible risk.” What about the kids in Chicago? Isn’t this what law enforcement does?
At the press conference, one senior member from each of the branches of law enforcement (FBI, ATF, Border Patrol, sheriff, state police, local militia) counted in excess of one-thousand soldiers, leaders in stars and stripes, full honors dress, gold insignias, ties, formal hats and bangles, military crew high-and-tights, all brothers in arms. All appeared to speak to their respective responsibilities and their unwavering commitment to ‘get the villain,’ concluding with “Thank-you all for coming to our press conference.” The general with stars and gold stripes repeated the sentiment, but there was no mention of Chicago or the twenty-five kids that had been shot in one weekend.
So, we know the question.
Why are there two classes of people in the US?
There are wealthy and poor, and an ever growing disparity in between.
There is law enforcement, and the kids in the Chicago streets with little sight for improvement.
More than the terrible price of congress taking care of themselves first, or of law enforcement caring for it’s own, but willing to let the rest of the world cannibalize each other, is the humiliation of our people, us, thinking we have voted for representatives to represent us, and in fact we have been duped.
As a people, if we have mafiosos as leaders, or a Kim Jung Un of North Korea or Saddam Hussein, who admit freely that they have no real cares in the world but their own, we could reasonably decide between two dictators or two rogues……there are many facets to slavery. And if we are to be poisoned, there is nothing wrong with at least having the choice of hemlock or the blue juice of suicide.
“My name is Mr. Dempsey and I am your 5th Form English teacher”.
“Now I am sure,” he said glancing at his watch, “since it is midday, you have all had a chance to catch up with one another, so with your permission we will begin.
The English teacher paused, peered out to the class, over his horned rimmed glasses.
He was quiet. He appeared comfortable and seemed willing to wait the few seconds, minutes or Annabel thought, ‘until the end of class’ until someone rose their hand and tried to answer.
“Really,” he resumed, smiling again, both at the reticence of his new class, but too, for the not uncommon nature of teenager’s unwillingness to speak openly and aloud particularly when their predictions or peregrinations may have been less than correct or even simply wrong.
“It is just another form of expression. The language of the heart or soul or whatever it is you call it that differentiates one of us from another and us, as a species from all others.
“And as we learn,” he continued, “if we listen carefully, we will acquire the tools and build an arsenal and we should not only learn something about ourselves but about our culture, so, in time we will be able to explore our own feelings, and better understand reverberations from the shadowy dark of our innermost souls.
“My name is Annie,” as the custom dictated new students introduce themselves to new teachers, “this sounds more like a course in psychology or political science.
Annabel and indeed all of the class fell into a deep, hushed silence.
It was apparently a question none had ever considered.
Annabel’s hand rose again but only as a formality as she was speaking already.
“Well they are different, aren’t they, Mr. Dempsey.
“A very good question,” Dempsey replied.
“So who would like to take a chance answering Miss Annabel’s question,” the English teacher asked, looking around, waiting for someone else to raise their hand or speak, or feel comfortable enough to join the conversation.
“Well,” ventured one of the students, a slight young lad with a large voice and big wondrous eyes.
“My name is Colby Sir, Colby North, and maybe this is not the answer you were looking for but does it have something to do with the idea that language is what the brain uses to tell stories, or to tell about history and history and stories of people are really about ..you know…the world, in a way, so, what we write, whatever it is about somehow reflects what’s going on in the world.
“That sir is brilliant. And exactly true.
“So we can look at language in a vacuum, as might a child murmur or speak to another when they are at play, or between two grown-ups, two politicians, world leaders, even between an English teacher and his class, and at the end of the day, it is both about us, but too reflects the world we live in.
“So Mister Colby, what do you call the people who live on foreign planets.
The class suddenly sat up and all looked at Mr. Dempsey directly not knowing if he were joking or a fruitcake from another planet himself.
“I am not sure I know what you mean, Mr. Dempsey, I mean, I didn’t know we had found life on other planets.
“Well I don’t know sir, I mean there are millions.
“Well, I don’t either…my point was simply,” and he smiled in a way that immediately gave all the understanding he was making a wry but noteworthy joke.
“I meant if there were such critters, and they did speak and write, chances are they would also speak of ‘stuff’ as we might call it, which would relate to their lives, their planets, their experiences on their planet Klingon or whatever it is called.
Colby raised his hand struggling to control his laugh.
“The Klingons, Mr. Dempsey are I think the people who live on one of those planets, but I think we all get what you mean.
“In time, we will find a handmaiden, a speaker, someone who reflects the sense of themselves which is consonant with our own and a sense of the world which makes sense.
As Nini spoke, Annie tried to cram four text books, an enormous binder and all of the papers from each of the new classes into her small locker.
“It’s not going to work,” she finally allowed leaning against the door trying half heartedly to push it closed.
“I mean, it’s just not gonna’ work.
“What are you talking about’, Nini asked, standing now next to her friend from kindergarten, Annabel Devry.
“You mean you’re not going to take the class.
“I meant the locker silly,” Annie said.
“Yeah it will, but you just can’t throw everything in and expect it all to work.
“Nini that is exactly what Mr. Dempsey said after class.
Nini, turning to leave, stopped abruptly.
“Well’ Annie said trying now to unpack and repack the small locker, “he said ‘you can’t be a great writer if you just throw everything in all at once.
“Good writing,” he said, “’is actually more of a taking away, kind of like good surgery, cutting out the right stuff from all the clutter.
Nini looked blankly at Annie, waiting for her to turn the dial on the padlock.
“I’m just going to stick it in my bag,” she concluded thrashing shut the locker door, done with the appearance of order and as anxious as Nini to get off to home room.
“Do you know what bus you’re gonna’ be on?
“I don’t,” she answered, heading out and quickstepping past her lifelong friend.
“C’mon,” she chided turning back her head now smiling at Nini who had dawdled for just a moment and was now three paces behind.

This project executes research at portfolio level into innovation-supported instruments and measures (the mix) that are used by governments, research institutions and industry in public-private cooperations in higher (golden triangle) and EU level in AKIS.
This is linked to seven functions (Hekkert & Ossebaard, 2010) which AKIS should fulfill in order to achieve innovation and transitions. In particular, it examines the role of civil society (f) actors that can influence the utilization of innovation. This is investigated for four national and international cases: two sectors (Horticulture and Livestock) and two areas of expertise (Food and Genomics). The knowledge contributes to the development of concepts and strategies for a coherent and consistent mix of knowledge and innovation measures at national and EU level.
Generic innovation challenge: Food (High Tech Europe / TFN and FND) and Genomics (CBSG, TTI GG).
The method is empirical and inductive.
This project combines knowledge, experience and previous evaluations with innovation programs and knowledge transfer at national and EU level. The output contributes to the KB-VI Concepts and assessment deliverables under public-private partnerships and concepts for knowledge transfer by SMEs.

11 July:The Minister of Textiles, Shri Shankersinh Vaghela has said that the Government is working to promote the activities of HHEC and has sanctioned ten more clusters of Handlooms for J&K region with this objective.
Addressing the Parliamentary Consultative Committee meeting attached to his Ministry here today, Shri Vaghela said that Handicrafts and handlooms Exports Corporation, HHEC is running a number of activities to provide support to artisans and weavers for the upgradation of their skills, design inputs, training and marketing their products. More than ten thousand weavers are getting direct and indirect employment through the activities of HHEC. The Minister informed the members that Corporation has 21 procurement centers all over the country to help and provide technical support to the grass root weavers.
Reiterating the Government’s commitment for the marketing support to the artisans, the Textiles Minister said that Central Cottage Industries Corporation, CCIC does procurement and sales of quality handicrafts and handlooms products not only for the domestic market but also for abroad. It has also opened showrooms to showcase traditional arts culture. He said the CCIC always lays emphasis in supporting artisan and has made efforts to eliminate the middlemen in the process of marketing of handlooms.
Briefing the members about the National Handicrafts and Handlooms Museum, NHHM, also known as Crafts Museum at Delhi, Shri Vaghela said that The Museum has a collection of over 32,000 artifacts consisting of Metal Icon, Lamps, Incense Burners and Ritual accessories.

The Baroque bed, as its name implies is very florid and ornate. The posts are monstrous -especially since they’re topped with massive cast finials and sturdy feet. The headboard grill is adorned with a large center casting and supported by 60” high posts. The footboard – supported by 36” posts, is a concave design that dips in the center. There are also large sloping side rails that are as fancifully decorated as the grills. Even the Gilded Slate finish is elaborate – it is a black base, with a hand-applied coat of mottled translucent white paint – which gives it a bluish hue, highlighted with gleaming gold. This bed is certainly a statement piece and will need a large room to contain it.

If you missed Part 1, please go back and read this series of posts in sequence.
Thus in Luke’s account in Acts, when James suddenly appears out of nowhere as leader of the Nazarene movement at the Jerusalem Council, we can see that Luke is well aware of James’s position. At this critical juncture he dared not leave James out of the story.
This is not to say that Acts lacks historical value. We would be immensely diminished in our understanding of the early development of the Christian movement without it. And ironically, Luke has unwittingly left clues in the book of Acts that allow us to verify what we know from other sources—that James, not Peter, became the legitimate successor of Jesus and leader of the movement. We have to learn to read the book of Acts carefully, aware at all times of the scarcely veiled “spin” that Luke put on the story.
Luke more than any of the other gospels marginalizes the family of Jesus. Remember, Luke is the gospel that deliberately avoided even mentioning the brothers of Jesus, much less naming them, even though his source Mark plainly listed them as James, Joses, Judas, and Simon (Mark 6:3). Once when a woman in the crowd that followed Jesus cried out “Blessed is the womb that bore you and the breasts that you sucked,” Luke alone had Jesus reply, “No, rather blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it” (Luke 11:27–28). Even at the cross, when Mark plainly said that “Mary the mother of James and Joses” as well as Jesus’ sister Salome were present, Luke changed this to read “the women [unnamed] who had followed him from Galilee” (Luke 23:49). At the burial scene he did the same. Rather than name “Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James” as present at the tomb as his source Mark did, he changed the account to read “the women [again unnamed] who had come with him from Galilee followed and saw the tomb” (Luke 23:55). In most cases Luke followed Mark rather closely as a source, much more so than Matthew, who constantly added his own editorial revisions. But Luke departed from Mark when it came to the mother and brothers of Jesus. I think he did this to avoid raising questions about Peter’s leadership of the Twelve or the superiority of Paul’s mission to the Gentiles. Such bold editing could not be accidental; there is something very important going on here. It is part of Luke’s overall agenda to recast the history of the early movement so that Paul comes out ahead of possible rivals including James. But what was their rivalry about?
Luke was a Gentile. In fact he was the only non-Jewish writer in the entire New Testament. He emphasizes the Gentile version of Christianity that Paul espoused. He cannot deny that Jesus was a Jew, or that all of Jesus’ original followers were Jewish, or that the early Christian movement as a whole was an apocalyptic movement within Judaism. But he wrote at a time, two decades after the Jewish-Roman revolt, when those Jewish origins of the movement were becoming marginalized and deemphasized and the imminent apocalyptic hope had faded.
Luke was also pro-Roman. Paul, his hero, was a Roman citizen and he wants his Gentile Roman readers to know and value that about him, and thus look with favor on the growing Gentile Christian movement. In his account of the trial of Jesus, Luke goes beyond Mark, his primary source, to emphasize that Pontius Pilate was a reasonable and just ruler who went to extraordinary lengths to get Jesus released. He removes the reference to Pilate having Jesus scourged and even omits the horrible mocking and abuse that Jesus suffered at the hands of Pilate’s Roman Praetorium guard (Luke 23:25). According to Luke, again following the theology of Paul, Jesus could not possibly have died “forsaken by God” since his death was part of God’s plan to bring forgiveness of sins to the world (Luke 24:47). Luke removed the agonizing final cry of Jesus and instead had Jesus pray directly for the Roman soldiers carrying out his crucifixion, “Father forgive them they know not what they do” (Luke 23:34). Luke was not writing history; he was writing theology. With that in mind we have to take what he tells us with extreme caution and keep in mind at all times his pro-Paul and pro-Roman agenda.
The primary reason that an understanding of the Jesus dynasty was lost to later Christian memory was that the book of Acts deliberately suppressed its existence. For Luke there was no possibility that the followers of Jesus retreated to Galilee in sorrow and despair after Jesus’ death. He puts all the “sightings” of Jesus in Jerusalem. He does not even mention Galilee and what might have happened there. These “sightings,” according to Luke, happened on Sunday, the very day the empty tomb was discovered, so that any doubts the apostles must have had in response to the brutal and horrible death of their leader were immediately dispelled. The new Pauline “Gospel” they were to preach to the Gentile world was put before them by Jesus himself. Luke explicitly said that Jesus told the Eleven “not to leave Jerusalem” (Acts 1:4). For Luke, Galilee represents the native, indigenous, Jewish origins of Jesus and his family. But something did happen in Galilee after the empty-tomb experience and it surely must have involved Jesus’ mother, his brothers, and the entire entourage that had followed Jesus to Jerusalem from Galilee. As I described earlier, according to Matthew and John it was in Galilee that the followers found a renewal of their faith and the determination to carry on the movement. Luke would have none of that.
But of course Luke felt obligated to include them as present. He did not dare to completely write them out of the account, knowing as he did the absolutely crucial role that they played. It is more than ironic that in listing the Eleven he mentions by name James, and Simon, and even notes that Judas is the brother of James. As we shall see, the book of Acts was written around a basic undeniable fact—James had assumed leadership of the movement, and Simon his brother took over after James’s death in 62 CE. Luke wrote Acts around 90 CE or even later, at least thirty years after James was dead. Luke was surely aware that Simon, also of the royal bloodline, had succeeded James and was head of the church in Jerusalem even as Luke was writing. Luke purposely ended his account in the book of Acts with Paul’s imprisonment in Rome around the year 60 CE. For him that is the end of the story—Paul in Rome preaching his gospel to the Gentile world. By choosing that cutoff date he had no obligation to record either the death of James or the succession of Jesus’ brother Simon. Luke’s story in Acts became the story of early Christianity for subsequent generations. What he chose not to tell was forgotten.
It is ironic that our earliest evidence regarding the leadership role that James and the brothers of Jesus played after Jesus’ death comes to us directly from Paul. Jesus was crucified in the year 30 CE. Paul’s letters date to the 50s CE. For this twenty-year gap we have no surviving records. These are the silent years in the history of earliest Christianity. What we can know we have to read backward from the records that survive. Fortunately, in Paul’s letter to the Galatians, written around 50 CE, he reached back at least fourteen years in recounting his own autobiography. This gives us an original first-person source, the most valuable tool any historian can work with, reaching back into the decade of the 30s CE.
In the letter to the Galatians Paul related that three years after joining the movement he made his first trip to Jerusalem, where he saw Peter, whom he calls by his Aramaic nickname Cephas. Paul stayed with him fifteen days. He then wrote, “But I did not see any other apostle except James the Lord’s brother” (Galatians 1:19). Not only did he call James an apostle but he clearly identified him as Jesus’ brother. The Nazarenes understandably distrusted Paul since he had so recently been at the forefront of those persecuting them, allied with the very leaders who had had Jesus killed. Paul saw Peter but he knew that it was essential that he meet with James, who was in charge. That Paul mentioned this in passing is all the more significant. He does not need to explain to anyone why he would have met with James.
Paul next related that fourteen years after his conversion, very close to 50 CE, he made a return trip to Jerusalem to receive authorization for his mission to the Gentiles from those he designated as the three “pillars” of the movement—namely James, Peter, and John the fisherman (Galatians 2:9).
That James is even named is significant, but that he is named first by Paul, before Peter and John, is absolutely critical for our understanding. The order of the names indicates an established order of authority.
The Council of Twelve, with James at the head, governs the Nazarenes, but among the Twelve, an inner group of three exercise the primary leadership—James, Peter, and John. James the brother of Jesus, sharing the royal lineage of King David, occupies the central position, but one on the right and another on the left flank him as “pillars.” Jesus, who had previously occupied the royal position, had been asked by the Twelve who among them would receive the privilege to “sit one on your right and one on your left” when the Kingdom arrived (Mark 10:37). Jesus had died without ever designating any of them for these two positions. Now, with James as the center, Peter and John had filled these roles as part of the messianic governing body that Jesus had inaugurated. We know this pattern from the Qumran community in the Dead Sea Scrolls. The Community Rule had stipulated: “In the Council of the Community there shall be twelve men and three priests, perfectly versed in all that is revealed of the Torah” (1QS 8).
Even though Luke had related nothing in Acts about James being one of the apostles, much less succeeding Jesus as leader of the group, when he reports this meeting of Paul with the Jerusalem apostles in 50 CE in his account in Acts 15 he also felt obligated to relate that James was in full charge of the proceedings. In the early chapters of Acts, Luke had mentioned Peter and John repeatedly, as a pair, indicating that they were in positions of leadership over the Nazarene movement. He had put these two first in his listing of the Twelve—indicating that they had been chosen for the “right and left” positions (Acts 1:13). This was a change from his earlier listing of the Twelve in his gospel, where he had a different order for the first four: Peter, Andrew, James, and John (Luke 6:14). That he has shifted the order in Acts, putting Peter and John in first and second place, fits with what we know from Paul about the “pillars” of the church, namely James, Peter, and John. Prior to this Jerusalem Council meeting in 50 CE the only time that Luke identifies Jesus’ brother James by name is when Peter is released from prison and he tells a group of Jesus’ followers gathered in a private home to “Go tell James and the brothers” that he had been set free (Acts 12:17). Here we have a hint that Peter is inclined to report things to James and the brothers of Jesus, but nothing more is said and no elaboration is given. This report seems to come out of the blue.
Thus in Luke’s account in Acts, when James suddenly appears out of nowhere as leader of the Nazarene movement at the Jerusalem Council, we can see that Luke is well aware of James’s position. At this critical juncture he dared not leave James out of the story. Coupled with Paul’s passing references in Galatians regarding James as the leading “pillar” of the movement we can begin to piece together our evidence. More than a few readers of Acts have puzzled over this anomaly. Who is this mysterious “James” who emerges in chapter 15 without explanation, and never even identified as Jesus’ brother, but with such power and authority?
The Jerusalem Council was convened to address a critical and controversial issue that had threatened to split the Messianic Movement. Upon what basis should Gentiles be accepted into the group? Both John the Baptizer and Jesus had proclaimed the imminent arrival of the Kingdom of God. According to the Prophets, God’s judgment was to fall not only upon Israel but also upon all humankind. Accordingly, Jews as well as non-Jews were called upon to repent of their sins and turn to God in order to be saved from the “wrath to come.” Yahweh was the Creator, the only “true and living God,” and worship of any other deities was termed idolatry.
Here Luke feels compelled to give James his rightful place with full authority—even though he offers no explanation for how this might have come to be. The pivotal decision that James decreed was in keeping with the general practice of Jewish groups throughout the Roman world. If non-Jews were attracted to the synagogue they were welcomed as “God-fearers,” or “righteous Gentiles,” and were not expected to become circumcised and keep the entire Torah as required of Jews. They were, however, expected to follow the ethics of the Torah that were applicable to all human beings. Idolatry and various forms of sexual immorality, widely condoned in Roman society, were strictly condemned. The eating of meat that still contained the blood of the slaughtered animal had been universally forbidden to all human beings from the time of Noah (Genesis 9:4). Beyond these more specific areas of conduct that divided Jew from non-Jew, one was expected to live a life of justice and righteousness.
The decision James rendered here was in general harmony with a common Jewish approach toward Gentiles that we know from other sources. But it is not so much the decision itself as the unambiguous authority James wielded over the Nazarene movement that makes this account in Acts so significant. Taking this as our starting point the cumulative evidence outside the New Testament that James took up the mantle of Jesus and occupied his “seat” or “throne” is quite remarkable. Some of this evidence is buried in ancient texts that we have had for centuries and some has emerged just in the past few decades.

The Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint is making its debut at this year Breeders' Cup World Championships and will be race five on the day dedicated to promoting "Tomorrow's Stars."
The 5 1/2-furlong race with a million-dollar purse is open to all 2-year-olds. The Juvenile Turf Sprint is a relatively new concept in American horse racing. There are few graded stakes turf races for 2-year-olds and the best will be running two turns in the Juvenile Turf. However, in Europe, there are several group stakes races for 2-year-olds at sprint distances. European 2-year-olds may have also raced in several group stakes already, such as So Perfect and Soldier's Call. Most American 2-year-olds have run in two races, one of those being their maiden.
While most American racing fans recognize Chad Brown as being a great trainer of turf horses, Wesley Ward has six horses among the pre-entries for the Juvenile Turf Sprint with four making the draw. One of those is filly Shang Shang Shang, a filly who beat the boys at the Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot and earned herself a "Win and You're In" spot.
Our 15-page Breeders' Cup Wagering Guide is ready for download and here is a sample so you can see the time and quality that goes into making such a guide.

Life in the village is hard – but life here also allows the inhabitants to grow and prosper as they please. One villager might want to become a friar. Another might feel ambitious and strive for a career in public office. A third one might want to seek his luck in distant lands.
Each player will take the reins of a family and have them find fame and glory in many different ways. There is one thing you must not forget, however: Time will not stop for anyone and with time people will vanish. Those who will find themselves immortalized in the village chronicles will bring honor to their family and be one step closer to victory.
Village is a game full of tactical challenges. A smart and unique new action mechanism is responsible for keeping turns short and yet still tactically rich and full of difficult decisions. Also unique is the way this game deals with the delicate subject of death; as a natural and perpetual part of life in the village, thoughts of death will keep you focused on smart time-management.
Each player’s turn consists of taking a cube and then taking the action of the area they just took the cube from. The board has multiple different zones with specific attributes, a market, a travel zone, a crafting zone, a church, and a council house. Many of these offer multiple options, so even if you take a cube from the crafting area, you can get an ox, a horse, a cart, a plow, a scroll, or convert wheat to gold. Each zone is seeded with cubes of four colors plus black cubes which serve as curses, there are lots of turns per round. Some areas offer short-term scoring, others offer long-term scoring, and still others offer only end-game scoring. The round ends when there are no cubes at any location. The game ends when either the village chronicle or the anonymous graveyard is full.

An industry run predominately by men shines light on an individual who’s in rare company, as a woman in charge of operations at our JX Truck Center – Wausau location.
Tracy Jonas was featured in the Business News section in the Northcentral Wisconsin Newspaper earlier this month, and it doesn’t come as a surprise to anyone who knows her. Her dedication to the success of JX Truck Center roots back to her regime of managing the Marketing department for 13 years. Jonas brought with her an itch for innovative ideas and creativity, exploring new avenues for growth opportunities.
After her tenure in Marketing, Jonas switched gears to assist with used trucks, and eventually into operations at our Wausau Dealership. As an Operations Manager, Jonas began to identify her own strengths and apply them wherever possible to create and fill her own niche. In this role, she oversees parts, service and the facility as a whole.
Jonas is the definition of a successful woman in trucking. She has the ability to take on a challenge and tackle it quickly. Her diverse background with JX allowed her to see the company through many different lenses and she uses her industry knowledge to continue leading the Wausau Team.
JX Truck Center is proud and fortunate to have Tracy Jonas apart of our team. She is setting the standard for women everywhere, who desire to work in industries predominately run by men.
Keep raising the bar, Tracy!

While the subtitle of the book is “a devotional journal for Easter,” this uniquely formatted book serves a Christian for any occasion, any time of year.
Flanders compiled each chapter to reflect various aspects of God’s nature, his miracles, and his love. The author says Because He Lives is a “celebration of His life, death, burial, and resurrection.” The meditations are meant to get the reader thinking about the life and work of Jesus, especially his Passion week.
Different from any devotional I’ve seen, this one presents a coloring book style. I believe that Flanders creates her journals this way to make the act of meditating on scripture more engaging. As with her other works, the daily readings are mostly dependent on scripture, basing the message on Christian creeds.
While engaging in the scriptures offered for reflection, readers may want to write prayers, poetry, experiences related to the reading, prompts from the Holy Spirit, or anything God brings to the mind and heart. There seems to be a completely gentle way of helping Christians speak on paper the influences of God’s grace in their lives. I found it refreshing in its simplicity.
I enjoyed Flanders’ inclusion of prophesies fulfilled, the various episodes of God’s goodness in Jesus’ ministry, scriptures related to living a life dedicated to Christ, and remembering the eternal perspective that we should always keep in mind.
BookCrash provided a complimentary copy of Because He Lives in exchange for this review.

Venous thrombosis of pancreas transplant allografts often leads to graft loss. We evaluated the efficacy of emergent endovascular techniques to salvage thrombosed pancreatic allografts in a series of six patients. Of the 76 pancreas transplants performed between 2002 and 2006, six patients were diagnosed with venous thrombosis on MRI between 2 and 28 days posttransplant (mean, 9 days). Five patients were systemic-enteric (donor portal vein anastomosis to recipient iliac vein) and one patient was portal-enteric (donor portal vein anastomosis to recipient superior mesenteric vein). Conventional venography confirmed the diagnosis of venous thrombosis in all patients. One patient was treated with catheter-directed venous thrombolysis and balloon thrombectomy. Another patient was treated with rheolytic thrombectomy alone. The remaining four patients were treated with a combination of these mechanical and thrombolytic techniques. Completion venography revealed >50% clot reduction and resumption of venous drainage in all patients. One patient required additional intervention 16 days later for recurrent thrombosis. Two patients required metal stent placement for anastomotic stenoses or kinks. One patient required pancreatectomy 36 h after attempted salvage secondary to a major hemorrhage and graft necrosis. Two patients recovered pancreatic function initially but lost graft function at 8 and 14 months, respectively, from severe chronic rejection. Patient survival was 100%, long-term graft survival was 50%, rethrombosis rate was 16.6%, and graft loss from rejection was 33%. In conclusion, early recognition and treatment of venous thrombosis after pancreas transplantation has acceptable morbidity and no mortality using short-term endovascular pharmacomechanical therapy.

I'm a UC Blog » Same blog, different name!
When I first started up this blog (almost a year ago) it was about Virtualisation, Messaging, Windows, Voice and anything else relevant! However over the last 6 months a common theme has prevailed – Unified Communications.
Therefore from this point forth “I’m a PC Blog” is now “I’m a UC Blog”, both old and new domains remain intact, namely http://imapcblog.com (old) and http://imaucblog.com (new).

On 22 November 2014, Rosie James led a stitching and bunting-making workshop inspired by Dover Museum’s World War 1 exhibition.
The chance to reflect and create. Also meeting a great teacher and participants.
I can’t work out which way to iron my bondaweb on without much debating and thinking.
The detail in the sewn cards and why they were sewn.

Um... first guess... is your AI image white by any chance... and the background of the AE file is also white.
Hi Levi thanks for your reply.. Unfortunately not.. this is my Ai file.
latest update... it has finally work... I found out that you will need to rasterize the image layer.. and it work immediately.. thanks for help anyway..
I think that when you import into Ae, the images in the Ai file need to be embedded and not just linked like when you place an image so rasterising it would in effect embed the image.

I am looking for a homemade POWDERED (french vanilla ) coffee creamer.
I like the idea of a keeping a powdered coffee creamer around and started with a base of dry milk. I looked at some recipes online and played around with some basic ingredients. Here’s what I came up with.
Melt the coconut oil in the microwave. Pour all ingredients into a food processor or blender and blend until you get a smooth powdery consistency. Transfer to an airtight glass container. This makes a good plain powdered creamer.
For more simple recipes for homemade mixes and convenience foods, check out my Homemade Mixes – Make It Yourself & Save Kindle Cookbook.

More on today's Earth Day March for Science here.
remained closed until further notice because of a leak discovered on Saturday, April 8.
Some good news. Roosevelt Island Operating Corp (RIOC) President Susan Rosenthal reported to the April 20 RIOC Board of Directors meeting that repairs to the pool are underway and almost completed. Ms Rosenthal expects (hopes?) the pool will be open by May 1.
One thing we learned is we can't just respond to problems. We have to look at these old buildings and other infrastructure around the Island and do work before there is a problem. That's going to be challenging for us.
It's been tough but I apologize to the community.... It's not the fault of anyone other than it's an old building. Things have not been updated over the years.
Please be advised that, due to equipment failure, the Sportspark pool remains closed for repairs. RIOC staff is working closely with pool specialists to address the issue and expects the pool to re-open on Monday, May 1st.
Diamond Rewards customer loyalty program items for April 21 - May 4 are now available .
That's 18 weekends in a row of Roosevelt Island F train service to and from Manhattan. The last Roosevelt Island weekend F train service disruption was December 16-19, 2016.
MTA has advised that due to a power outage there is NO "F" train service in either direction. Please plan your travel accordingly and visit mta.info or call 511 for more information.
The line for the North side of the tram is past sports park.
The queue for the tram is really long now.
@NYCTSubway When will we move? It's been almost an hour stuck on the F line at Roosevelt island. Please help.
@mtanowf best way out of roosevelt island rn is the tram!! Get in line asap! Donr bither going into the station.
Trains are so fucked I’m waiting for a cab on Roosevelt Island.
Similar situation happened March 9 and January 9.
Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today directed the New York State Department of Public Service and the Metropolitan Transportation Authority to conduct an immediate investigation into Con Edison’s equipment failure that led to significant delays across MTA New York City Transit subways this morning.
New York City Transit subways experienced a loss of station power at the Seventh Avenue Station in Manhattan due to a Con Edison equipment failure. The outage resulted in the loss of signals, escalators, communications and station lighting. MTA New York City Transit immediately deployed MTA generators to the station to restore the signals allowing trains to bypass the station. Service has resumed with residual delays.
"The loss of power due to a Con Edison equipment failure during the morning rush hour caused a cascading effect and impacted the lives of thousands of commuters. Simply put, this was completely unacceptable and I am directing the Department of Public Service and the MTA to conduct an immediate investigation into the Con Edison equipment failure, the cause of the outage and the response to it. The New York City subway system is the lifeblood of the city and a critical means of transportation for millions of people, which is why we are making unprecedented capital investments into modernizing the system. The MTA will continue to deploy emergency resources to address the short-term issues, and our investigation will address all aspects of today’s events to get to the bottom of what happened."
Island Kids is a not for profit organization providing support to the families of Roosevelt Island by offering affordable, quality enrichment opportunities and support groups. Programming includes enrichment classes for babies, toddlers and pre schoolers, support programs and workshops for parents and caregivers, a summer camp program for children aged 4-10 and an After School Program at PS/IS 217.
Island Kids stands firm in its mission to serve the entire Roosevelt Island Community and therefore offers scholarships to those who might otherwise not be able to participate in our programs.
... $2,963,705 to the Roosevelt Island Operating Corporation to construct a bike-only ramp to the Roosevelt Island Bridge.
... Can the project go forward now or is more money needed?
$2.963!! The project is going forward NOW. We will be preparing the scope of work for the RFP seeking a structural engineer. The agreements regarding the grant are yet to be seen, however. Note that before the grant, we spoke to a number of officials who expressed an interest in the project and we intend to revisit those interested parties. We are so excited about the project!
Below are renderings of the fully funded Roosevelt Island Bridge Bike ramp from RIOC.
The Roosevelt Island community has long been waiting for a bike-only ramp to allow cyclists an easy and safe connection to the Roosevelt Island Bridge. Thanks to Governor Cuomo, nearly $3 million in federal dollars are being allocated to this ramp so the connection can become a reality. Cyclists will no longer have to carry their bikes up flights of stairs, or risk their safety by sharing the helix ramp with cars. It’s great that the state, federal government and community are working together to make Roosevelt Island a safer, more accessible place.
During the March 29 Cornell Tech Roosevelt Island Town Hall Meeting, Cornell Tech's Assistant Director of Government & Community Relations Jane Swanson reported on the proposed Roosevelt Island Bridge Bike Ramp.
Good job by RIOC and Cornell Tech.
Now, let's see if RIOC can get a qualified bidder for the RFP to do the bike ramp project.
The RIOC VOTE is in!
It literally took a village..... 30+ volunteers, at 12 sites, who devoted 90+ man-hours of labor!
Thanks for the hard work of each and every volunteer who made this process possible!
Special thanks to Margie Smith who helped educate our candidates and the community about the importance of this vote. And extra appreciation to Bill Weiss and Laura Hussey who gave additional time to help tally the voting results.
And special thanks to the Managing Agents at 455 Main St, Rivercross, Manhattan Park, Westview, Island House, Octagon and Roosevelt Landings for their help in providing tables and access to their lobbies for this important vote!
Video of the April 12 Meet the RIOC Board Nominee Candidate night is here.
Howard Polivy, David Kraut and Michael Shinozaki are long time RIOC Board Directors currently serving. Mr. Polivy and Mr. Kraut did not give their permission to be placed on the election ballot and were not participants in any pre-election publicity. Mr. Shinozaki did agree to participate in the election. All the other nominee candidates actively participated in the election process.
The election is not without controversy. Claims of ballot fraud, which I am not going to get into right now, have been raised. Click here to read all about the election controversy in this comments thread.
The Roosevelt Island Operating Corp (RIOC) Board of Directors will meet tomorrow evening, April 20 at the Cultural Center (548 Main Street).
Among the items on the Agenda is the amendment of the Master Retail Lease with Hudson Related and the purchase of two new diesel Red Buses.
The Master Retail Lease item was added to the Agenda late today. No information yet what that may be about.
One June 23, 2016, the Board approved the purchase of two diesel buses. This was due to an aging bus fleet that will need to be phased out over time. The purchase of the two new buses has alleviated several issues, however, supply shortages and higher repair costs still exists with a predominantly older bus fleet. As part of an allotted 6-year budget plan, from 2016 through 2022, all of the current aging buses on the fleet will be replaced.
The RIOC Operations Department contacted three commuter bus manufacturers. Two manufactures (New Flyer and Nova) offered their prices, while the third (Gilig) did not submit a price. Below is a summary of the bids received, including company, model, price and other relevant information. These bids were evaluated based on specifications desired, intercompany history and price.
New Flyer Industries Inc. is our recommended vendor, as they offer competitive pricing, meet all of the Department of Operations requirements and RIOC has a long standing business relationship.
New Flyer is the leading manufacturer of heavy-duty buses in the U.S. and Canada, headquartered in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. RIOC and New Flyer have been conducting business together for over 20 years, starting with a purchase of four buses in 1994. A New Flyer bus that was purchased in May of 1994 was put out of service on November 3rd, 2009, lasting over 15 years. Moreover, the two most recent purchases have performed exceedingly well. All this highlights the reliability and durability of New Flyer buses. In addition to the proven quality of the buses, New Flyer’s knowledgeable mechanics impress RIOC and strengthens our recommendation to award the contract to the company.
RIOC’s Department of Operations requests an authorization for an amount not-to-exceed $430,694 per bus, for a total price of $861,388 towards the purchase of two buses from New Flyer.
Here'e April 19 Memo from RIOC President Susan Rosenthal to the RIOC Board describing the proposal.
More info from the Bowery Boys and a look back at Mae West - Why Don't You Come Up And See Me Sometime.
Roosevelt Island's Gallery RIVAA invites you to an evening of Slam Poetry Friday, April 21.
You are cordially invited to a special event "Spoken Word by Slam Poet Steven Willis + OPEN DOORS Writers" on Friday April 21st, from 6-8pm at Gallery RIVAA.
World Slam Poetry Finalist Steven Willis mixes elements of hip hop with history in his explosive spoken-word art.
At Gallery RIVAA, Willis will be performing with OPEN DOORS participants who live at NYC Health + Hospitals/Coler on Roosevelt Island. OPEN DOORS works with men affected by gun violence to improve their lives and inspire action for safer, more just communities.
OPEN DOORS connects Coler Hospital residents affected by gun violence with the resources to improve their lives and use their stories to inspire action for safer, more just communities.
Since OPEN DOORS’ launch in June 2016, the project has established creativity workshops, where our clients frame, develop, and share their experiences, with guidance from visiting artists. Through these workshops and one-on-one coaching, clients identify personal goals to enrich their lives, and ultimately, to reintegrate into the communities from which they’ve been cut off.
Here's some Slam Poetry from Steven Willis.
The first batch of Citi Bikes will be rolling in to Astoria sometime this summer.
The Department of Transportation presented a map of 59 proposed locations for Citi Bike docking stations at a Community Board 1 Transportation Committee meeting last night, though DOT is still looking for feedback on the proposed locations.
and Roosevelt Island was the neighborhood with most request for Citibike docking stations.
Hopes were high in September 2010 for a Roosevelt Island bike sharing station when the Roosevelt Island Operating Corp (RIOC) undertook a demonstration here.
Citibike stations are already located in nearby Long Island City.
Will Citibike ever install bicycle sharing stations on Roosevelt Island? I asked Roosevelt Island's NYC Council Member Ben Kallos, a long time supporter of Citibike stations on Roosevelt Island.
Roosevelt Island began investigating the options of a bike share in the summer of 2012 when the city first launched its program. With the ongoing support from the community, Citibike docking stations were requested for R.I., more than any other zip code in town. The community deserves to be a part of this successful initiative. Bike share systems provide sturdy bikes at self-service docking stations and are available 24/7.
It’s a great alternative means of transportation and is a quick and healthy way to get around the island. We are currently exploring bringing CitiBike to Roosevelt Island jointly with the Roosevelt Island Operating Corporation (RIOC), the Department of Transportation (NYCDOT) and Motivate.
before entering Motorgate Garage would work?
UPDATE 4/19 - Except, I don't think we want Roosevelt Island jam packed with tourists on bicycles.
This year the Cherry Blossom Festival will be held on Saturday, April 29th from 12 Noon to 5 p.m. The festival is a multi-organization event with many island organizations taking part including RIOC, RIRA, parents groups and many more.
A full schedule of the days' events will be published soon.
See you at the April 29 Roosevelt Island Cherry Blossom Festival!!!!
The Roosevelt Island Residents Association (RIRA) is conducting an election on April 17 & 18 to provide NY State Governor Andrew Cuomo with nominees for selection as Roosevelt Island Operating Corp (RIOC) Board of Directors.
and adds that volunteers are still needed to cover the election sites. Please email Ms. Short if you are interested in volunteering to help with the election.
urged residents to vote and ask their neighbors to vote as well.
According to Ms. Short, RIOC President Susan Rosenthal does not see need for the election because the RIOC President works for the Governor and the Governor selects the RIOC Board. Ms Short believes that the RIOC President and Directors should work for the Roosevelt Island community first and foremost.
Below are statements and biographies of the RIOC Board nominee candidates. Note that the candidates are not running against each other but to fill vacant or currently expired Board Director seats. You can vote for one candidate or all of them in order of preference.
I am so proud to take part in this important opportunity to represent my fellow residents on the Roosevelt Island Operating Corporation Board. My wife and I fell in love with the Island community and have made our home here. We live here, shop here, park our car here, educate our son here (RIDN), and make ample use of the Island’s resources. We certainly enjoy the convenience, the diversity and the charm that is Roosevelt Island but firmly believe that we need a stronger voice in Albany. I am fervently passionate about education and public safety as well as ensuring that our community retains its appeal to tourists, visitors and now our Cornell Tech neighbors while addressing commercial growth and quality of life in a proactive way.
It is no secret that New York taxes are among the highest in the nation and the Island affords us great services but there are many improvements needed particularly with the anticipated population increase. The use of impact funding and allocation of resources should involve voices from those who are most affected; our Island residents. Serving commercial or political interests should not mean neglecting our at-risk populations and we should not stand idly by while increased demands on parking, sanitation and maintenance, public safety and security, recreation programs and spaces go unaddressed.
As a Marine and a Special Operations Officer I understand the intrinsic value that such a position holds. The responsibility to represent the community without regard to labels, party affiliation or special interests is paramount to our success. I believe in proactive and collaborative leadership and in expressing the voice of our community with honesty and integrity no matter how unpopular the message may be.
I am at your service and hope that you will see fit to consider me for the RIOC Board.

Hello, my name is Brian Bower, and I'm a native New Yorker and a resident of Roosevelt Island since 2010. I have worked in data analysis and risk evaluation at Thomson Reuters for the last 2 years. I got married in 2016 and am an enthusiastic cook for my wife; you will see me every Saturday frequenting our Farmer's Market to pick up fresh produce for the upcoming week.
Having lived on the Island for the last 7 years, I have become increasingly concerned with the maintenance of the Island's public spaces, facilities, and the allocation of our resources. I believe that the Island's resources should be maintained for our community at a higher standard, and that our Public Safety department needs to be sufficiently funded and staffed, especially given the upcoming opening of Cornell's facilities. It is also essential that we fill the empty storefronts which litter Main Street.
If appointed to the board, I will work to ensure the Island Residents' interests are represented in the financial decisions of RIOC.
Thank You, and I hope to be able to represent our community.
Being part of the solution and not part of the problem – that’s why I’m running for the RIOC Board of Directors.

I’ve been an active member of the Roosevelt Island community: Treasurer of the Island House Tenant’s Association, President and Treasurer of the PS/IS217 PTA, and Treasurer of the Main Street Theatre and Dance Alliance (MSTDA). My activities at Hope Church are an important part of my life. I’m deeply committed to the objectives of the church. I’ve raised 3 children who have all attended PS/IS 217, two of them are now in college and my youngest attends Eleanor Roosevelt High School.
I urge all of you to vote in this important election. Participate by using your voice to select your community leaders. Then consider how else you can be part of the solution and not part of the problem.

Here is video of the April 12 RIOC Board Director Nominee Candidate's Forum. I went to the Forum skeptical of the election but came away very impressed with the candidates.
Following presentations by the candidates, the Roosevelt Island residents in attendance asked questions.
With a magic wand, what one Roosevelt Island change would the candidates like to see?
Budget priorities, pets, traffic, public safety.
Infrastructure maintenance, RIOC Accountability, independence from Governor's Office.
Is RIOC Board a Rubber Stamp for the Governor or independent? Better use of open space, ball fields and recreational space for residents.
Cornell Tech, Transportation, Youth Community Center.
Balance being an independent RIOC Director with the interests of NY State.
Former Mayor Mike Bloomberg's interest in Roosevelt Island and end of the Forum.
The candidates should be thanked for their willingness to serve the Roosevelt Island community. Take a few moments on Monday and Tuesday to cast a ballot.
More on the RIOC Board Director nominee election at this previous post.

ABOVE: Bay Area residents seek the California dream — in Sacramento. Lower housing prices are the big draw. Click here if you are having trouble viewing the video on your mobile device.
Click desperately through real estate websites for a cheaper home and a better life?
Efforts to move out of the Bay Area continued in recent months, with 16,000 residents packing up and taking to the road for cheaper housing and new opportunities. A study by real estate brokerage Redfin found the Bay Area remains the top region for outward migration in the country.
Why are all these Bay Area residents leaving?
The steady climb in real estate prices has made first-time home-buying expensive and frustrating for many newcomers. And rents continued to rise year over year, especially around tech giant headquarters in Silicon Valley.
The median price in December for a single-family home in Santa Clara County was $1.2 million, while a similar home in San Mateo was $1.4 million, and in Alameda, $838,000, according to real estate firm CoreLogic. A comparable home in Sacramento is $314,000, according to Zillow.
Overall, the region’s population continues to grow. But the number of outgoing residents has hit its highest point in more than a decade, according to a report released Wednesday by Joint Venture Silicon Valley.
People are leaving Silicon Valley nearly as quickly as they are coming in. Between July 2015 and July 2017, the region gained 44,732 immigrants but lost 44,102 residents to other parts of California and the country, according to the regional think tank. The population drops have been most notable on residents between the ages of 18 and 24, and between 45 and 64.
Redfin analysts combine sales data and searches on their website to determine where users are moving. For the past nine months, San Francisco, New York and Los Angeles have had the highest number of residents moving out.
About 1 in 4 Bay Area residents looking to leave searched for homes in Sacramento, and nearly 1 in 10 browsed Seattle listings. The top five destinations for Bay Area movers were Sacramento, Los Angeles, Seattle, Portland and San Diego.
The Bay Area migration also causes ripples through other housing markets, Marr said. Relatively wealthy Silicon Valley residents bid up home prices in other cities, lifting values in their new regions.
Sandy Jamison, owner and broker at Tuscana Properties in San Jose, has seen several homeowners cash in and move to cheaper areas. Among her recent listings of homes for sale, 9 of 10 owners are leaving the state.
A typical client has been in their home for decades, and no longer feels connected to the changing community, she said. Selling a family home for $1 million in the valley and buying a new home for half the price in another state makes sense for many retirees, she said.

How well does your Rheumatoid Arthritis medical affairs team performance compare with the rest?
According to this latest survey of 150 rheumatologists across the EU5 (UK, France, Germany, Italy and Spain) the performance of rheumatoid arthritis medical affairs teams still has a way to go in some key areas. Find out what physicians think is done well; what they want to see more of; and why some are dissatisfied.
Use Medical Affairs Reputations: Rheumatoid Arthritis 2017 (EU5) to discover how your team can better meet the high expectations of physicians at the frontline.
Tightly bunched at the top. Six teams have leapt ahead with over 70% of physicians recalling an interaction within the last 6 months. Where does your team sit? At the top or toward the bottom?
Fierce competition. One team has leapt to the top of the satisfaction tables for almost every medical affairs attribute. Which team is it, and what can other teams do to catch up?
It’s not just about biologics. With small molecules becoming a critical component of RA treatment, how does the medical affairs team for one of the key small molecule therapies perform? Are they leaders, are they laggards and how does your brand compare?
Are biosimilars delivering the goods? 3 biosimilar brands are included in the survey, but how do they compare to their reference products and what opportunities are open to the medical affairs team to improve overall performance?
Is it about information or attitude? Do respondents value information of attitude when it comes to offering advice to medical affairs teams on specific areas of improvement?
We surveyed 150 rheumatologists from the EU5 (France, Italy, Germany, Spain, UK) chosen from the largest community of validated physicians in the world.
We conducted the survey between October 5-28, 2017.

In today’s market, it’s hard to make sense of what’s what. Deals have grown incestuous for the first time, with outfits like GV investing alongside Uber last week — just months after its parent company, Alphabet, was at Uber’s throat. A $10 million-plus round of seed funding is no longer a joke. Venture firms continue to raise record-breaking amounts of money, despite what feels like creeping uncertainty about how much longer this go-go market can continue.
Unsurprisingly, there’s been some talk lately about deal flow and the possibility that some of the most well-regarded early-stage investors in the industry have quietly applied the brakes. Yet new analysis out of Wing, the 7.5-year-old, Silicon Valley venture firm co-founded by veteran VCs Peter Wagner and Gaurav Garg, draws a conclusion that might surprise nervous industry watchers. After tracking the investment activity of what Wing considers to be the 21 leading venture firms, it discovered that a pullback already happened . . . in 2016. In fact, Wagner, who oversaw the analysis, tells us there’s been so sign of a slowdown since then.
We caught up with Wagner last week to learn more about Wing’s findings — and what might be causing some confusion in the industry right now.
TC: First, why do this kind of study right now?
PW: There’s been a lot of analysts and reporters and LPs and VCs asking us about our investment pace lately, and I think it owes to talk of Benchmark and Union Square Ventures slowing down, so we thought we’d look at some parameters and see what’s going on.
TC: Why not just refer to industry-wide statistics? It seems like there are plenty of these.
PW: They’re kind of swamped with the data of less discriminating investors, though. You really want to focus on the signal, which is why we track what the 21 leading venture firms are doing. And in that analysis, we found no signs of a slowdown. We found instead that there was a peak of activity in 2013 and 2014, a pullback in 2016, and an uptick since.
We cut it different ways, too. We removed international deals in China and India, because they have their own rhythm and can get frothy. We removed seed deals, given there’s been some major schizophrenia among venture firms that waded into seed deals, then pulled out. Even still, 2017 saw an increase in deals over 2016, which was the lowest year in terms of deal activity since 2010.
TC: These were first-time investments?
PW: Yes, and the reason is that follow-on rounds are dictated more by the operational needs of companies. Some could be running out of cash, for example, so it’s non-discretionary. If you want to look at sentiment, you have to look at first-time investments in isolation.
TC: Do you have 2018 data?
PW: We have partial data, of course, and we’ve annualized it to “predict” that 2018 numbers will be close to 2017. That is, if you buy the idea of projecting out, which I don’t really. Also, because you’re looking at a smaller batch of numbers, you’re on thin ice statistically. But for now, at least, we’re seeing a level of activity that was higher than 2016.
TC: You can see why things might be ticking along now: the tech IPO market, SoftBank’s massive Vision Fund, big tech companies getting bigger, which keeps the wheels turning. What happened in 2016? Uncertainly about the U.S. presidential election? Bill Gurley’s warnings that a reckoning was coming?
PW: I really don’t know that it was down so much versus that prior years were up. It was a more a reversion to the mean. The 2016 number still represents a pretty decent and sustainable pace for this industry.
TC: Based on your findings, would you guess a downturn is closer than further away? It seems inevitable, but I’ve thought this for the last three years.
PW: It’s a known unknown. We know there will be a change, but we don’t know when or how deep it will be.
TC: Could things have possibly changed, given that everything is impacted by tech, that software is, in fact, eating the world? That’s obviously the bull case.
PW: It’s pretty darn mainstream, whether via digital transformation or just the massive disruption of massive industries buy digitally native competitors. I don’t know, is the answer. But it’s true. Tech isn’t a sideshow anymore.

It 's a good steel.
Forging is possible, but has several problems.
1.Before foremost that of decarbonization, which will be more extensive and profound than what happens in academic low alloy steels. This is because the K360 It contains a good amount of chromium (8.75%).
2.Secondariamente the difficulty of forging, due to the content of primary carbides present all'ustenizzazione (at a temperature of forging short).
3.Inoltre quenching and tempering should be done with a very good oven, using tricks to avoid decarburization (controlled atmosphere or candy).
Forging may still have beneficial effects on K360, such as grain refining and fiber direction del'acciaio, but ESR technology allows for a fine grain apart, evenly distributed carbides and fine.
If you like, if you do not have the K360, you could use his "poor relation", the Sleipner (which by the way an artisan Scandinavian forge successful, even if the problems are pretty much the same as K360).
Or there 's also the Krupp 2990, very similar in composition to K360 (but not manufactured with technology ESR) *.
Ac3 but 'for the K360 do not think there (is the splitting of Ac1), because it is a steel ipereutettoide. I know the place is Acm, ie the temperature at which all carbide enter into solution in the iron range (Acm practically indicates the saturation index dell'austenite). In any case if there were too Acm would be well below 1040 ° C, given the hardening temperature of the K360.
Regarding the decarburization, the steels with high chromium undergo decarburization deeper than low alloy steels such as AISI O1, O2, 5260, 52100, etc..
But when you go to forge a blade, then you have to remove much more than a few tenths, at least from the surface of the bevels. So for that I do not think there are problems, if you know the first estimate decarburization.
The K360 is a self-hardening to beyond 1040 ° C structure, with cooling in still air, it becomes quite hard. Probably even in still air is hardening. Doing an experiment with D2 (1.2739), analyzing two specimens hardened and tempered with the same parameters, one off in a forced air and in still air, and the result 'was 58 HRC for both.
Indeed this may be a problem, especially if you can not heat evenly throughout the knife (because the small size of the forge, for example).
However already shaping around 900-950 ° C believe that the problems would decrease, since the hardenability at that temperature, would be "limited."
These problems (high hardenability, decarburization deep) are common to many steels, including the Sleipner, but are forged successfully (to produce knives). So I think with a little 'experience and congnizione cause, they can be overcome.
* In the ESR steel is higher than the transverse resilience (closest to the values of longitudinal resilienz).

A man appearing to wear journalist Jamal Khashoggi’s clothes left the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul following his killing there, according to a surveillance video, while a member of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s entourage made four calls to the royal’s office around the same time, reports said on Monday.
The reports by CNN and a pro-government Turkish newspaper came just a day before Prince Mohammed’s high-profile investment summitis to begin in Riyadh and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has promised that details of Khashoggi’s killing “will be revealed in all its nakedness”.
Th reports add to the pressure Saudi Arabia faces over the slaying of The Washington Post columnist.
The kingdom’s Saturday’s claim on that Khashoggi died in a “fistfight” were met with international scepticism and allegations of a cover-up to absolve the 33-year-old crown prince of direct responsibility.
Turkish media reports and officials maintain that a 15-member Saudi team flew to Istanbul on Oct 2, knowing Khashoggi would arrive for a document he needed to get married.
Once he was inside the diplomatic mission, the Saudis accosted Khashoggi, cut off his fingers, killed and dismembered the 59-year-old writer.
CNN aired surveillance footage on Monday showing a man in Khashoggi’s dress shirt, suit jacket and pants.
The man is seen in the footage walking out of the consulate via its back exit with an accomplice, then taking a taxi to Istanbul’s famed Sultanahmet Mosque, where he went into a public bathroom, changed back out of the clothes and left.
In the days after Khashoggi vanished, Saudi officials initially claimed that he had left the consulate, implying premeditation on the part of the Saudi team.
“After Turkish authorities and the media were allowed to inspect the consulate building in its entirety, the accusations changed to the outrageous claim that he was murdered, in the consulate, during business hours, and with dozens of staff and visitors in the building,” Saudi Ambassador to the US Prince Khalid bin Salman, a brother of the crown prince, wrote on Oct 8.
A separate report by newspaper Yeni Safak said that Maher Abdulaziz Mutreb, a member of Prince Mohammed’s entourage on trips to the United States, France and Spain this year, made the calls from the consulate.
The newspaper said the four calls went to Bader al-Asaker, the head of Prince Mohammed’s office.
It said another call went to the United States.
Yeni Safak cited no source for the information. However, pro-government newspapers have been leaking information about Khashoggi’s killing, apparently with the help of Turkish security forces.
Yeni Safak reported last week that Saudi officials cut off Khashoggi’s fingers and then decapitated him at the consulate as his fiance waited outside.
Officials in Saudi Arabia have not answered repeated requests for comment from The Associated Press in recent days, including on Monday.
Saudi Arabia so far has not acknowledged or explained Mutreb’s presence in Istanbul, nor that a forensics and autopsy expert was also on hand for Khashoggi’s arrival at the consulate.
Last week, a leaked photograph apparently taken from surveillance footage showed Mutreb at the consulate, just ahead of Khashoggi’s arrival.
Mutreb’s name also matches that of a first secretary who once served as a diplomat at the Saudi Embassy in London, according to a 2007 list compiled by the British Foreign Office.
Meanwhile, Saudi state media reported that both Prince Mohammed and King Salman made calls to Khashoggi’s son, Salah, early on Monday morning.
Statements from the agency said both the king and the crown prince expressed their condolences for Khashoggi’s death.
A Saudi friend of Khashoggi who was in frequent touch with him before his death told the AP that Salah Khashoggi had been under a travel ban and barred from leaving the kingdom since last year as a result of his father’s criticism of the government.
The friend spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of repercussion.
The Saudi statements did not acknowledge the ban.
Istanbul’s chief prosecutor had summoned 28 more staff members of the Saudi Consulate, including Turkish citizens and foreign nationals, to give testimony.
Some Turkish employees reportedly said they were instructed not to go to work around the time that Khashoggi disappeared.
Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir on Sunday told Fox News that Khashoggi’s killing was “a rogue operation” and that “we don’t know where the body is”.
However, leading Republicans and Democrats in Congress are saying Saudi Arabia should face punishment over Khashoggi’s killing.
US President Donald Trump also had talked about possible punishment but said he didn’t want to halt proposed arms sales to Saudi Arabia because he maintained it would harm American manufacturers.
Britain, Germany and France issued a joint statement condemning the killing of Khashoggi, saying there is an “urgent need for clarification of exactly what happened”.
In a statement on Sunday, the governments said attacks on journalists are unacceptable and “of utmost concern to our three nations”.
They said the “hypotheses” proposed so far in the Saudi investigation need to be backed by facts to be considered credible.
German Economy Minister Peter Altmaier underlined that point on Monday, calling for a joint European position as Germany “won’t at this point approve any further arms exports because we want to know what happened”.
Moreover, Saudi Arabia Monday said that it had no plans to repeat its harsh 1973 oil embargo, even as relations with the West sour following the killing of Khashoggi.
Riyadh, long the world’s biggest oil producer, hiked prices sharply during the 1973 Yom Kippur War, setting off a wave of inflation that plunged developed economies into years of crisis.
Saudi Oil Minister Khaled al-Faleh told the TASS news agency that “there is no intention” of repeating the events of 1973.
“Saudi Arabia is a completely responsible country. For decades, we have used our oil (production) policy as a responsible economic tool and we have kept it apart from politics,” Faleh was quoted as telling TASS in an interview in Riyadh.
“Saudi Arabia has been coherent in its policy. We work to stabilise global markets and to facilitate global economic growth,” he added.
Riyadh’s changing accounts of what happened to Khashoggi, an insider turned critic of the government, have run into increasing western scepticism, with even firm ally US President Donald Trump saying the government had lied about what happened.
“This incident will pass,” al-Faleh forecast.

Our second Milestones Report on the transition of Australian payments to the digital economy shows that the rapid decline in cheque use is continuing as electronic alternatives become more convenient.
Figures from the Reserve Bank of Australia show that for the year to June 2013, cheques use dropped 13.3% – down from 241 million to 209 million. This compares with a 12.5% drop for the year to December 2012.
The report further highlights the initiatives undertaken by financial institutions and Government to ensure a smooth transition to the digital economy for those that still rely on cheques.

Collective Bellaciao, France: Science proves that vote fraud is real!
Science proves that vote fraud is real!
Vote fraud confirmed: US Count Votes has come out with a remarkable paper authored by a committee of twelve, most of them highly-qualified mathematicians and statisticians from major universities. This study highlights the serious ramifications of the exit poll discrepancy while demolishing the "chatty Dem" theory (more properly known as the "reluctant responder" theory), which remains the official explanation for that incongruity.
The only possibility left is vote alteration.
Alas, this important scientific study has yet to make an impact. The media, distracted by the Pope’s death, hasn’t noticed that Uncle Sam is also facing the Reaper. The only significant coverage of this report has appeared in the Akron Beacon Journal.
For those of you who are paying attention, the full analysis is here. An "executive summary" is here.
The exit poll discrepancy in the 2004 American presidential election was the largest in the poll’s history -- about five-and-a-half percent. The odds against the polls being so wrong are roughly one in a million. The "chatty Dem" theory is nonsense: Responses to the pollsters were higher in Republican strongholds -- where the exit poll discrepancies were widest.
I suppose the only (weak) counter-argument he might offer would be along these lines: For some reason, Kerry supporters in Bush strongholds -- but not in Democratic precincts -- were remarkably eager to push all others aside and commandeer the pollsters. Not only is this scenario counterintuitive, it goes against all previous experience. It also goes against Mitofski’s own data.
Once again, I would remind readers of another oddity besetting these troubling exit polls: On November 2, 2004, pollsters did not restrict inquiries to the votes cast on that date. They also asked voters about the 2000 election. 43% of the respondents said they had chosen Bush on that previous occasion, while 37% reported having cast a ballot for Al Gore.
But Gore WON the popular vote. This simple fact -- which even math illiterates should be able to comprehend easily -- proves that the exit pollsters favored Republicans, not Democrats.
Author Josh Mitteldorff, in the executive summary of the US Count Votes report, does not favor the theory that touch screen voting had greater error rates than did punch cards. However, on page 18 of the report proper, we see data suggesting that mechanical voting machines had a significantly higher error rate than did paper ballots.
How to resolve this seeming contradiction? I remind readers that punch cards are run through a computerized central tabulator -- the "mother machine," as Teresa Heinz-Kerry once put it. Absentee ballots and provisionals must be counted by hand.
So far, the best analysis of this analysis comes from Newsclip Autopsy. Highly recommend reading.
difference in the accuracy of results for the Senate versus the presidential races in the same exit poll."
No logic, indeed. Unless this is a nation where "multiple personality disorder" is present in epidemic proportions!!! To allay that particular fear, this report confirmed another startling finding which was observed in a previous report by the same group. Exit polling accuracy was dependent on whether the election ballots were hand-counted or not!! This is a highly significant finding, considering that, in Ohio, only a non-random 3% of the ballots were hand recounted. Many of these instances had recounts which were different from the machine counts.
And how did Ken Blackwell, the corrupt Ohio Secretary of State, respond to all this?
"What are you going to do except laugh at it?" said Carlo LoParo, spokesman for Ohio Secretary of State J. Kenneth Blackwell, who’s responsible for administering Ohio’s elections and is a Republican candidate for governor. "We’re not particularly interested in (the report’s findings)."
Once more, the Republicans assail Reason itself.
Please do everything you can to publicize the work of US Count Votes. This important scientific analysis should be leading all other headlines on Buzzflash, Bush Watch, Air America, Daily Kos...not to mention the New York Times, CBS, ABC and the rest of the mainstream media. Alas, even the wonderful blog by John Conyers has not yet covered this report.
1. We all pretty much knew this.
Remember on election Day, everyone was relaxed because we KNEW Kerry would win, then around 4:00 things changed.
They certainly stole the election.
5. It's at the very bottom of the post.
7. I love Bellaciao, too!
"Once again, I would remind readers of another oddity besetting these troubling exit polls: On November 2, 2004, pollsters did not restrict inquiries to the votes cast on that date. They also asked voters about the 2000 election. 43% of the respondents said they had chosen Bush on that previous occasion, while 37% reported having cast a ballot for Al Gore".
The hell with the RBR!
THE 43% for Bush is IMPOSSIBLE!
THE 43% NUMBER WAS FABRICATED TO AGREE WITH THE VOTE COUNT!
43% of the 122.26 million who voted in 2004 is 52.57 million.
BUT BUSH GOT ONLY 50.456 MILLION VOTES IN 2000!
THAT'S A DIFFERENCE OF 2.11 MILLION.
THEREFORE, THE BUSH VOTE WAS INFLATED IN THE FINAL EXIT POLL BY 2.11 MILLION VOTES.
BUT WE KNOW THAT APPROXIMATELY 3.5% OF BUSH 2000 VOTERS DIED (1.77 MILLION) BEFORE ELECTION 2004.
THEREFORE, THE BUSH VOTE WAS INFLATED BY 1.77 + 2.11= 3.88 MILLION VOTES.
BUT THAT ASSUMES 100% of BUSH 2000 VOTERS CAME TO THE POLLS IN 2004.
WE KNOW THAT AT LEAST SOME STAYED HOME AND DID NOT VOTE.
ADD THE .50 MILLION TO THE 3.88 MILLION AND THE BUSH VOTE WAS INFLATED BY 4.38 MILLION VOTES.
ASSUME THEY ALL WENT TO KERRY.
THAT LEAVES 1.20 MILLION FOR NADER ET AL.
HOW MANY BUSH 2000 VOTERS DECIDED TO VOTE FOR KERRY THIS TIME?

On Wednesday October 31, ASB will host a “Halloween Bash” that consists of a movie screening in the Multi-Purpose Room (MPR), games that will be set up in the 100 and 400 Corridors, and a costume contest that will be held in Senior Square. All events will be open to all students and will take place during lunch.
Administration reminds students that October 31 is not a free-dress day; consequently, students may not wear “regular clothes” as a costume. Costumes must be in good taste and no objectionable type of attire may be worn under any circumstances.
Per VDHS administration, certain prohibitions are to be observed: No costume may include weapons, depict violence, alcohol, tobacco, or controlled substance use, feature obscenity, exploitative or suggestive lettering, pictures or any material that would be in conflict with the Christian values of Verbum Dei High School. Costumes will be judged to determine the best in various categories. $10 gift cards will be awarded to the winners.
“We made sure to keep everything organized and available to all students,” said Maribel Andrade, ASB Moderator. The Halloween Bash is set to have all students enjoy and celebrate the holiday. ASB worked to make the event fun for all students, which is why the various options for activities are available.

About 29 percent of Altamont Grade School students passed annual English language arts assessments in 2018 and 71 percent of students failed, according to a East Central Reporter analysis of the latest Illinois schools report card.
According to Altamont Grade School English language scores, about 27 percent met expectations and 3 percent exceeded them. Students whose results are in either category are considered to be most ready to move on to the next level and are most prepared for college or work.
Another 29 percent approached expectations, while 24 percent partially met expectations and 17 percent did not meet them. Students who scored in these categories are not ready for the next level of schooling, according to the test.
Test results at Altamont Grade School, which enrolled 412 students in 2018, fell below state averages.

You can consider getting a Hawaiian shaved ice treat for yourself or for your family to calm their bodies down. To get the shaved ice to the table, you need to have the supplies that are required to create the Hawaiian shaved ice. The supplies may be meant for your home use or even for business purposes if you intend to sell the shaved ice to people. It is necessary to consider different things about where you buy your Hawaiian shaved ice supplies as well as the supplies in themselves so that you get the best services. Among the essential things to be considered in the purchase of Hawaiian shaved ice supplies are provided below.
The first step is to establish the reasons for which you need to obtain the supplies. If for example, you will be using the supplies to make Hawaiian shaved ice for your family members, a standard size of a shaved ice maker can be suitable for your needs. However, if you're purchasing the supplies for business, you may need a machine that will support the comprehensive making of shaved ice. The other supplies including cups, ice syrup, and straws also need to be much depending on the size of use that you expect to put them into in the process of the consumption of the shaved ice.
The range of supplies that you can get from a particular hawaiian shaved ice machine supplier is a necessary item to be considered. All the supplies that you need for your Hawaiian shaved ice need to be found at a single source. When you can find what you need from a single source, it is likely that you achieve high levels of convenience because you do not need to move from one place to another looking for what you need. You also get to save on costs when you buy from a single source because you can get discounts when you buy in bulk.
It is necessary to establish the quality of the block ice shaver supplies that you're going to get from a specific supplier. You need to get high-quality products that will provide you with the required services over a long time so that you do not have to buy others for replacement. The prices at which you get the needed supplies also need to be reasonable based on the quality of the products. The costs need to be equivalent to the quality so that you get value for money spent on them. It is likely for you to benefit significantly from buying the needed supplies from stores which offer discounts and coupons when you purchase from them.
See this video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rq14Y2-c-v4 for more insights about food supply.

Stay Dead was a horror based improv show put on by the Philly Improv Theater(PHIT). Mike Marbach, the show's creator and director, wanted something that hearkened back to the VHS box covers of the 1980's horror genre. Given the comedic nature of improv and it's randomness, I decided to take the title quite literally and center it around a faceless figure that just... won't... die.

AIDAN WINS IRONMAN DUN LAOGHAIRE 70.3, QUADRATHON SUCCESS FOR PADDY, NATASHA 2ND IN SALMON RUN AND 24/7 PB’S GALORE AT DONEGAL HALF MARATHONS!
Three 24/7 members made their way to Dun Laoghaire for the Ironman 70.3 on Sunday. In testing weather conditions competitors undertook a 1.9km swim from Sandycove, home to the famous Martello Tower, in the waters of Dublin Bay, before taking on a spectacular yet challenging 90km bike course. The course travelled through some of the most scenic areas in the region, including County Wicklow, home to the Wicklow Mountains National Park. Athletes then took on the half marathon run through the streets of the charming seaside town, before finishing with Dún Laoghaire Harbour and Dublin Bay as the backdrop.
What a performance from our very own Aidan Callaghan! Aidan was first age grouper with a superb finish time of 4:33. Indeed Aidan even managed to beat the finish times of some of the pros on the day, finishing a fantastic 7th overall. Aidan got off to the perfect start with a 28:54 swim, 7th out of the water. He put in a big performance on the bike also with just under a 35km average per hour over the testing 90km bike course. He finished with an excellent 1:22 half marathon to be crowned first age grouper- almost 7minutes ahead of his nearest competitor. Aidan now qualifies for the World Championships which will be held in Nice in September 2019 but before that he takes on Ironman Barcelona in October.
Colin Dean also put in a very strong performance. Colin finished with a super time of 5:55:54, a very impressive 1:37 half marathon off the bike from Colin. Siobhan Gallagher was back in racing action yet again, this time the 70.3 distance. Siobhan had a brilliant performance with an overall finish time of 5:56:05, 4th in the F25-29 age category. Siobhan was 2nd female to exit the swim with a brilliant time of 30:12 and she finished strongly with a 1:55:12 run to claim 4th F25-29.
Natasha Kelly travelled to Ballina for the Salmon Run Triathlon hosted by the Liquid Motion Tri Club. Natasha had a superb performance finishing 2nd female overall in a brilliant time of 1:10:48. A super swim of 9:32 and a very strong 19:47 5k to finish for Natasha. Possibly 24/7’s most travelled member, Paul Kelly was yet again back in action over the weekend in Ballina. Paul is putting in some great performances all season. Paul finished in a brilliant 1:25:15.
Paddy McNulty for the second year in a row took on the Extreme North Quadrathon Quest Half Marathon Challenge. Based in Inishowen and the surrounding villages the 4 day challenge involved 4 very hilly half marathon races, the mammoth Mamore Gap being part of the course in one of those days! Paddy had brilliant performances on all days. Day 1 he finished with in 1:47:42, day 2 in 2:05:48, day 3 in 2:00:37 but saved his best performance for the last day with a 1:42:32 finish time. What an achievement, well done Paddy.
24/7 was well represented at Letterkenny AC’s Donegal Half marathon with 17 members competing and all with brilliant performances. Gavin Crawford was first 24/7 member to finish and 3rd overall in a superb 1:17:34- a brilliant performance from Gavin ahead of his main aim of Dublin Marathon in October. Paul Dillon was also in super form, putting in a huge performance and finishing with a PB of 1:27:52. Jason King raced well also, with a brilliant 2nd in his Age Category crossing the finish line in 1:28:50. Another two in scintillating form ahead of their marathon debuts are Liam Tinney and Pat Brady. As always, not much separated these two on race day- Tinney finished with a PB time of 1:29:13 just 4 seconds ahead of Pat Brady who picked up the prize for 1st in his age category with a brilliant PB of 1:29:17. John Daly had another fine performance finishing in 1:35:45. Conor McLaughlin looked very strong finishing in 1:36:48. Mark Rogers also raced well, finishing in a super time of 1:38:12. Fionnuala Larkin was the first 24/7 lady to finish. Yet again Fionnuala had another fine performance with a 1:41:40 PB. Aidan McFadden is running very well these days, Aidan had a PB only a few weeks back in the Danny McDaid 15k and he had a very good run on Sunday also to finish with a 1:43:10 PB. Johnny Duffy was just three seconds behind Aidan with a brilliant 1:43:13. Desiree Casburn was hot on the heels of the two boys, with a super PB run of 1:43:14. Anne Robinson looked comfortable throughout on Sunday finishing strongly with a 1:46:11 PB. Martina McDaid ran very well crossing the line in 1:50:04, a PB for Martina also. These three ladies are all Dublin Marathon bound also and going by Sunday’s performances; they are really taking to the longer miles-great times await them in October no doubt! Mickey Russell also ran well finishing in a brilliant 1:52:57. Keith Gordon was back in racing action with a brilliant 1:56:21 finish. Paddy Doherty also had a super run with a PB time of 1:58:14. Well done everyone- brilliant results for 24/7.
Ryan Browne was in action at the Manor 5k last Tuesday. Ryan finished in a time of 25:34 with his Dad Philip keeping him company to finish in25:35.

Aberdeen Grammar defied their firmest critics with a fighting comeback to draw their National League 1 game with leaders Jed – Forest, inspiring head coach Ali O’Connor to claim, it had felt more like a famous win on Border soil.
“Trailing 24 – 3 well into the second half, we dug deep to pull off a remarkable result. Even at two points in arrears, full back Bryn Perrott’s conversion looked in doubt, but some how his kick from the touchline crept over to give us an outstanding outcome. Our defending was just tremendous, considering it has not been one of our main weaknesses in the first half of the season. We scarcely missed a tackle once we got on the front foot. Anyone who writes us off after this performance, does not know the strength of character in the team,” said a delighted O’Connor.
But while Perrott was the kicker of the day, it was replacement winger Jack Burnett who was try scoring hero of the Riverside Park win, taking the final pass of Craig Shepherd after a magnificent 20 phase build up in the last minute of pulsating game, which Jed knocked off the top slot of the division.
In a tightly fought game, the Border side led by a lone Scott Munro penalty at half time after which the home side pushed on for what looked to be a certain victory, given a three burst, taking them into an apparently unassailable 24 – 3 lead.
Grammar had other ideas, hitting back with two splendid tries from flanker Chris Jollands who underlined his value to the Rubislaw side, storming through with excellent support play from his pack to take the game down to the wire.
Perrott played his part, converting both touchdowns, and at 24 – 17 it was game on going into the closing stages, and its dramatic conclusion.
On this form, it is hard to know what to make of the in and out form of Aberdeen Grammar who will now take a break from the hurly burly of the league, turning their attention instead to the League Cup on Saturday when they meet Stewart’s Melville of National League 2 who will no doubt have looked at the Jed – Forest result and asked where did that come from. A trip to Rubislaw will now be the last thing the Edinburgh side will now want.

Most modern kitchens are equipped with some sort of kitchen extractor fan. These units are not only highly functional but can be an attractive part of the kitchen's decorating scheme. Exhaust fans don't often need to be installed or replaced, but knowing a little about kitchen extractor fans can help selection and installation go more smoothly when the time comes.
A kitchen extractor fan, sometimes referred to as an exhaust fan, is a large fan that mounts directly above the kitchen stove. The fan is encased in a metal box- or bell-shaped canopy called a range hood and is usually attached to an exhaust vent, which also concealed by the range hood. The range hood primarily serves to enhance the function of the fan and to conceal unsightly fans and vents; however, an attractive hood can also add colour and character to a kitchen.
A kitchen extractor fan has an important job to do: It must draw up all the smoke and vapours created during cooking and route them elsewhere. That's no small task, as kitchen vapours consist of not just water vapours from boiling, but also vaporised oil and grease from fried and sautéed foods. Some kitchen vans introduce fresh air into the kitchen while simultaneously removing smoke and vapours. Kitchen extractor fans are designed to reduce the amount humidity and oil in the air to prevent them from dirtying and damaging kitchen surfaces.
The most common types of kitchen extractor fans are updraft fans, downdraft fans and nonvented exhaust fans. Updraft fans are the most popular among these types, and because they take advantage of the upward motion of kitchen vapours, they're extremely effective. Updraft fans are easier to install than downdraft fans, because the ducting is installed in walls and ceilings, rather than through flooring. Downdraft fans force vapours down to venting that's usually located below the vent, often at the base of a cabinet or on the floor. Nonvented fans circulate kitchen vapours; however, the absence of ductwork means vapours cannot be removed.
Consider budget, usage and kitchen layout when choosing a kitchen extractor fan. For most home kitchens, a variable-speed extractor works well and will operate fairly quietly. A large-capacity fan is a more appropriate choice for a kitchen that gets heavy use or for installation over a kitchen island. When kitchen layout or lack of space prevent overhead ducting, a downdraft fan may be the only viable option; however, a home improvement expert can offer advice on which fans to buy.
Measure your cooking surface and make sure the hood you've chosen is at least as wide as the cooking surface. Read and follow the manufacturer's instructions before beginning installation. Install smooth-walled, metal ductwork in as straight a line as possible from the fan to the outside wall where fumes and vapours will be vented. The fewer bends there are in the ducting, the better the extractor system will function.

What is the definition of Commercial and Industrial Customers?
Commercial and Industrial Subscribers are a subscriber group that uses gas as fuel and or raw material in their business activities. This group is divided into 3 (three) groups, namely KI-1, KI-2, and KI-3.
What is the difference between Subscriber Groups KI-1, KI-2, and KI-3?
Commercial and Industrial (KI-1) is a Commercial and Subscriber group that uses gas with mininum gas usage per month above the maximum gas usage per ponth of Small Business 2 (PK-2) untiil 500,000 m3/month.
Commercial and Indusrial (KI-2) is Commercial and Industrial Subscriber group that uses gas with minimum gas usage per month of 500,001 m3/month to 3,500,000 m3/month.
Commercial and Industrial (KI-3) is a Commercial and Industrial Subscriber group that uses gas with minimum gas usage per month of 3,500,001 m3/month.
Subscriber is imposed with calculation of gas usage payment per month by the amount of gas used multiplied by the applicable gas price. If the usage is below the minimum contract then the calculation of payment of minimum volume multiplied by existing gas price. If the use above the maximum contract will be subject to gas price in accordance with the applicable provisions of excess gas usage.
When and how can a subscriber obtain information on gas usage billing information?
When and where can subscribers pay their gas usage bills?
Subscribers can start making billing payments starting on the 6th (sixth) date of a month, and by the 20th (twentieth) date the payment is received by PGN.

Gum disease is a serious condition that can lead to tooth loss if not treated. Gum disease is caused by a build-up of plaque and tarter. By having a professional teeth cleaning twice a year, you can reduce your risk of developing this condition.
Gingivitis is the first stage of periodontal disease. Warning signs of gingivitis include gum inflammation. In the early stages of gingivitis, plaque builds up on the surface of the tooth. This is what causes the gums to become inflamed, and your gums may bleed when you brush your teeth. When gingivitis is left untreated, it become periodontal disease. When a patient develops periodontal disease, the inner layer of the gum and jawbone will start to separate from the teeth and form pockets. These pockets, or spaces between the gum and teeth, collect debris and can easily become infected.
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, or are due for a professional cleaning, please contact Chusid Dental Group today at 973-736-1777 and schedule an appointment.

Drayich (captain) of Mousesports has quit DotA.
This shows that more and more people have grown tired with the Aeon of Strife genre and have switched to other competitive Warcraft maps like Fufu Ninja.
He quit primarily because he already has a new child coming along and a new job.
Good bye long DotA games. Hello quickie Fufu Ninja games!

Frédérick Carnet is an interesting photographer in that he works in series—Andrew Molitor, who drew my attention to him, wrote that he "sequences...with real genius."
This requires more on the part of the viewer. To look at them, I suggest picking a series and scrolling through it slowly, letting each picture stop in front of your eyes for a brief "soak," then moving deliberately to the next, paying special attention to the effect of the whole series while trying to suppress your immediate snap judgement of each photograph. They're not standalone pieces—the effect needs to be cumulative. This requires a different kind of "reading" of the photographs, as reading poetry differs from reading prose, or reading a novel differs from reading a textbook. Don't give up too easily; try it on a few different series to see if you begin to get the knack.
Frédérick, who kindly consented to letting me republish the photograph above as a single image, said, "I do work in series and this picture is part of one serie which itself is part of a full body of work called Chronicles of an Absolute shot between 2009 and 2015."
I think you will appreciate exploring his website, as I did.
Animesh Ray: "A stunning shot. Given the apparent simplicity of the composition, and the somewhat pedestrian nature of each of the two parts of the image separately, the juxtaposition is startlingly creative. A fine example of an emergent property of merely two objects placed within a compositional frame. Bravo!"
I must confess Mike my artistic appreciation levels have not yet reached the level of sophistication required to understand this body of work, however I look forward to reading others comments as it is never too late to learn and improve one's tastes in these matters.
I don't like poetry and I didn't care for this. Some of use are more intellectual while others are more visceral. Nothing here grabbed me by the throat.
This looks more like something I'd enjoy Henri Cartier-Bresson: Mexican Notebooks 1934-1964 https://www.amazon.com/Henri-Cartier-Bresson-Mexican-Notebooks-1934-1964/dp/050054199X In 1934 HCB was still openly a surrealist.
I think these are great. I've always been interested in carefully-ordered sequences of things: good photobooks, good exhibitions of photographs and, of course, albums (of songs).
But (there has to be a but) I was really annoyed by the presentation. This may be browser-dependent, but for me (with what is, sadly, now a slightly non-mainstream browser -- Firefox) I had to adjust the browser window so I only saw one picture at a time (because I really don't want to see the edge of the next/previous picture and then laboriously scroll to see the next picture and adjust it to be right. That was just off-putting.

Do you use questions in your sales copy?
If so… are you sure you know what you’re doing?
Because frankly, when I first started out, I didn’t have a clue.
I had no idea why so many of the older copywriters would ‘hem’ and ‘haw’ when asked the ‘question’ question.
At the time, it seemed to me that questions would be a great way to engage the reader.
After all, when you first talk to someone and meet someone, asking them questions and getting them to talk about themselves is a great way to get them to open up to you.
However, things work a little differently when you’re writing questions in copy.
When you write up sales copy, especially to ‘cold’ readers who have no idea who you are and what you’re about, it’s important to get them agreeing with you right off the bat.
That way, when you make the big product reveal, you’re not just some greedy company. You’re someone who ‘gets’ them. So you must know what they like.
One of the ways to do this is to get the reader to nod their heads.
And then from there, you get them to acknowledge that having and endless mob of kittens may not be the best solution to their cravings, but you have the next best thing – a kitten magazine with countless kittens for them to ogle.
We’re triggering the actual heart-melting response by getting them to picture the experience paired with the question.
Now lets pretend we asked this sort of question.
Woah. Stop there. You know what you just did? You asked them to search their mental database.
So now, instead of nodding with you, they think to themselves. “Hmm… I dunno- IS there aything more precious than a kitten? Maybe my nephew? My lawn gnome?” And from that point on, you lost them.
Now you’ve put them in a ‘scritinizing’ mindset. Instead of flowing and reading your copy, now they’re sizing up every line and checking it with their database.
Another bad question example is any one that they can easily say no to.
Do you wish you could change your long distance plan? No.
Do you hate the way your lawn looks? No.
See? Some people might say “yes,” but you risk alienating an alarming amount of people by asking such open-ended questions.
Making statements is a little safer.
Until you get a feel for what questions are ‘safe’, stick to statements.
And best of all – you’re more likely to make the sale.
I’m thinking a more in-depth post talking about how to determine if a question is a good one or not is in order!
Do you use questions or not in your sales copy?

The abetment of the illegal omission of an act may amount to an offence although the abettor may not himself be bound to do that act.
To constitute the offence of abetment it is not necessary that the act abetted should be committed, or that the effect requisite to constitute the offence should be caused.
(a) A instigates B to murder C. B refuses to do so. A is guilty of abetting B to commit murder.
(b) A instigates B to murder D. B in pursuance of the instigation stabs D. D recovers from the wound. A is guilty of instigating B to commit murder.
It is not necessary that the person abetted should be capable by-law of committing an offence, or that he should have the same guilty intention or knowledge as that of the abettor, or any guilty intention or knowledge.
(a) A, with a guilty intention, abets a child or a lunatic to commit an act which would be an offence, if committed by a person capable by law of committing an offence, and having the same intention as A. Here A, whether the act be committed or not, is guilty of abetting an offence.
(b) A, with the intention of murdering Z, instigates B, a child under seven years of the age, to do an act which causes Z’s death. B, in consequence of the abetment, does that act in the absence of A and thereby causes Z’s death.
Here, though B was not capable by law of committing an offence, A is liable to be punished in the same manner as if B had been capable by law of committing an offence, and had committed murder, and he is, therefore, subject to the punishment of death.
(c) A, instigates B to set fire to a dwelling-house. B, in consequence of the unsoundness of his mind, being incapable of knowing the nature of the act, or that he is doing what is wrong or contrary to law, sets fire to the house in consequence of A’s instigation.
B has committed no offence, but A is guilty of abetting the offence of setting fire to a dwelling-house, and is liable to the punishment provided for that offence.
(d) A, intending to cause a theft to be committed, instigates B to take property belonging to Z out of Z’s possession. A induces B to believe that the property belongs to A.
B takes the property out of Z’s possession, in good faith, believing it to be A’s property.
B, acting under this misconception, does not take dishonestly, and therefore, does not commit theft. But A is guilty of abetting theft, and is liable to the same punishment as if B had committed theft.
The abetment of an offence being an offence, the abetment of such an abetment is also an offence.
A instigates B to instigate C to murder Z. B accordingly instigates C to murder Z, and C commits that offence in consequence of B’s instigation. B is liable to be punished for his offence with the punishment for murder; and, as A instigated B to commit the offence, A is also liable to the same punishment.
It is not necessary to the commission of the offence of abetment by conspiracy that the abettor should concert the offence with the person who commits it. It is sufficient if he engages in the conspiracy in pursuance of which the offence is committed.
A concerts with B a plan for poisoning Z. It is agreed that A shall administer the poison. B then explains the plan to C mentioning that a third person is to administer the poison, but without mentioning A’s name.
C agrees to procure the poison, and procures and delivers it to B for the purpose of its being used in the manner explained. A administers the poison; Z dies in consequence.
Here, though A and C have not conspired together yet C has been engaged in the conspiracy in pursuance of which Z has been murdered. C has, therefore, committed the offence defined in this Section and is liable to the punishment for murder.
A. Where the act abetted is not an offence, the question of offence does not arise. IPC provides punishment only for the abetment of an offence, and not for abetment for mere facts and which are not offences.
B. To constitute the offence of abetment, it is not necessary that the act abetted should be committed or completed or that the effect requisite to constitute the offence should be caused.
C. To constitute the offence of abetment it is not necessary that the person abetted should be capable, by law of committing an offence he may be a minor or a person of unsound mind, etc.
D. The person abetted need not have the same guilty intention or knowledge as that of the abettor.
The client had given information and instructions to his counsel to ask the witness certain amatory questions during the cross-examination. Relying on the information received from the client, the advocate asked the defamatory questions in the Court. The Court convicted the client not only as an abettor but also as principal offender also.
Giving a bribe to a public servant is an offence under Sec. 161. The person, who gives the bribe, is guilty of abetment. If a person, who gives bribe in response of demand accompanied by threats is not an abettor. A person who gives illegal gratification to a public servant even on demand is guilty of abetment under Sec. 109.
Sec. 108-A explains that a person abets an offence within the meaning of this Code who, in India, abets the commission of any act without and beyond India which would an offence if committed in India.
A person abets an offence within the meaning of this Code who, in India, abets the commission of any act without and beyond India which would constitute an offence if committed in India.
A, in India, instigates B, a foreigner in Goa, to commit a murder in Goa. A is guilty of abetting murder.
Sec. 109 explains the punishment of abetment.
An act or offence is said to be committed in consequence of abetment, when it is committed in consequence of the instigation, or in pursuance of the conspiracy, or with the aid which constitutes the abetment.
(a) A offers a bribe to B, a public servant, as a reward for showing A some favour in the exercise of B’s official function. B accepts the bribe. A has abetted the offence defined in Section 161.
(b) A instigates B to give false evidence. B, in consequence of the instigation, commits that offence. A is guilty of abetting that offence and is liable to the same punishment as B.
(c) A and B conspire to poison Z. A, in pursuance of the conspiracy, procures the poison and delivers it to B in order that he may administer it to Z. B, in pursuance of the conspiracy, administers the poison to Z in A’s absence and thereby causes Z’s death. Here B is guilty of murder. A is guilty of abetting that offence by conspiracy and is liable to the punishment for murder.
A instigates B and C to murder Z. All the three were prosecuted under Section 302 read with Section 109. The trial Court altered the charges and convicted B and C under Section 304 r//w S. 109, but convicted A under Section 302 r/w 109. Discuss.
In Goura Venkata Reddy vs. State of A.P. (2003) 12 SCC 469) case, the Supreme Court held that on facts, conviction of all accused-appellants under Section 302 IPC altered to Sec. 304 IPC. Hence the appellant/accused, which had instigated the other accused persons would be liable to be convicted under S. 304 r/w S. 109 and not under S. 302 r/w 109.
I. Sec. 110 prescribes punishment of abetment if person abetted does act with different intention from that of abettor.
J. Sec. 111 explains the liability of abettor when one act abetted and different act done.
Provided the act done was a probable consequence of the abetment, and was committed under the influence of the instigation, or with the aid or in pursuance of the conspiracy which constituted the abetment.
(a) A instigates a child to put poison into the food of Z, and gives him poison for that purpose. The child, in consequence of the instigation, by mistake puts the poison into the food of Y, which is by the side of that of Z.
Here, if the child was acting under the influence of A’s instigation, and the act done was under the circumstances a probable consequence of the abetment, A is liable in the same manner and to the same extent as the food of Y.
(b) A instigates B to burn Z’s house. B sets fire to the house and at the same time commits theft of property there. A, though guilty of abetting the burning of the house, is not guilty of abetting the theft; for the theft was a distinct act, and not a probable consequence of the burning.
(c) A instigates B and C to break into an inhabited house at midnight for the purpose of robbery, and provides them with arms for that purpose. B and C break into the house, and being resisted by Z, one of the inmates, murder Z.
Here, if that murder was the probable consequence of the abetment, A is liable to the punishment provided for murder.
K. Sec. 112 explains about an abettor when liable to cumulative punishment for act abetted and for act done.
A instigates B to resist by force a distress made by a public servant. B, in consequence resists that distress. In offering the resistance, B voluntarily causes grievous hurt to the officer executing the distress.
As B has committed both the offence of resisting the distress, and the offence of voluntarily causing grievous hurt, B is liable to punishment for both these offences; and, if A knew that B was likely voluntarily to cause grievous hurt in resisting the distress, A will also be liable to punishment for each of the offences.
L. Sec. 113 explains about the liability of abettor for an effect caused by the act abetted different from that intended by the abettor.
A instigates B to cause grievous hurt to Z. B, in consequence of the instigation, causes grievous hurt to Z. Z, dies in consequence. Here, if A knew that the grievous hurt abetted was likely to cause death; A is liable to be punished with the punishment provided for murder.
Whenever any person, who is absent, would be liable to be punished as an abettor, is present when the act or offence for which he would be punishable in consequence of the abetment is committed, he shall be deemed to have committed such act or offence.
N. Sec. 115 explains about the abetment of offence punishable with death or imprisonment for life if offence not committed.
If act causing harm be done in consequence and if any act for which the abettor is liable in consequence of the abetment, and which causes hurt to any person, is done, the abettor shall be liable to imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to fourteen years, and shall also be liable to fine.
A instigates B to murder Z. The offence is not committed. If B had murdered Z, he would have been subject to the punishment of death or imprisonment for life. Therefore, A is liable to imprisonment for a term which may extend to seven years and also to a fine; and, if any hurt be done to Z, in consequence of the abetment, he will be liable to imprisonment for a term which may extend to fourteen years, and to fine.
O. Sec. 116 states abetment of offence punishable with imprisonment if offence be not committed.
and if the abettor or the person abetted is a public servant, whose duty it is to prevent the commission of such offence, the abettor shall be punished with imprisonment of any description provided for that offence, for a term which may extend to one-half of the longest term provided for that offence, or with such fine as is provided for the offence, or with both.
(a) A offers a bribe to B, a public servant, as a reward for showing A some favour in the exercise of B’s official function. B refuses to accept the bribe. A is punishable under this Section.
(b) A instigates B to give false evidence. Here, if B does not give false evidence, A has nevertheless committed the offence defined in this Section, and is punishable accordingly.
(c) A, a police officer, whose duty it is to prevent robbery, abets the commission of robbery. Here, though the robbery be not committed, A is liable to one-half of the longest term of imprisonment provided for that offence, and also to fine.
(d) B abets the commission of a robbery by A, a police officer, whose duty it is to prevent that offence. Here, though the robbery be not committed, B is liable to one-half of the longest term of imprisonment provided for the offence of robbery, and also to fine.
Z instigates N to give false evidence before The District Judge in a Murder case. N refuses to do so. Has Z committed any offence?

D offers Rs. 10,000/- to Q an Engineer in RW.D. Showing official favour for his works. Q refuses to accept the money and complains. Has D committed any offence? Comment.
Yes, D has committed the offence under Section 116. The problem is identical with illustration (a) appended to Sec. 116.
P. Sec. 117 explains about abetting commission of offence by the public or by more than ten persons.
Q. Sec. 118 states the concealing design to commit offence punishable with death or imprisonment for life if offence be committed or if offence be not committed.
Whoever intending to facilitate or knowing it to be likely that he will thereby facilitate the commission of an offence punishable with death or imprisonment for life, voluntarily conceals, by any act or illegal omission, the existence of a design to commit such offence or makes any representation which he knows to be false respecting such design.
If the offence be not committed, with imprisonment of either description, for a term which may extend to three years; and in either case shall also be liable to fine.
A, knowing that a dacoity is about to be committed at B, falsely informs the Magistrate that a dacoity is about to be committed at C, a place in an opposite direction, and thereby misleads the Magistrate with intent to facilitate the commission of the offence. The dacoity is committed at B in pursuance of the design. A is punishable under this Section.
R. Sec. 119 explains about the public servant concealing design to commit offence which it is his duty to prevent if offence be committed; if offence be punished with death etc., if offence be not committed.
Whoever, being a public servant, intending to facilitate or knowing it to be likely that he will thereby facilitate the commission of an offence which it is his duty as such public servant to prevent, voluntarily conceals, by any act or illegal omission, the existence of a design to commit such offence, or makes any representation which he knows to be false respecting such design.
Or, if the offence be not committed, shall be punished with imprisonment of any description provided for the offence for a term which may extend to one-fourth part of the longest term of such imprisonment, or with such fine as is provided for the offence, or with both.
A, an officer of police, being legally bound to give information of all designs to commit robbery which may come to his knowledge, and knowing that B designs to commit robbery, omits to give such information, with intent to facilitate the commission of that offence. Here A has by an illegal omission concealed the existence of B’s design, and is liable to punishment according to the provision of this Section.
S. Sec. 120 explains the concealing design to commit offence punishable with imprisonment if offence be committed; or if offence be not committed.
If offence be not committed if the offence be not committed, to one-eighth, of the longest term of such imprisonment, or with such fine as is provided for the offence, or with both.
A instigates B to burn Z’s house. B sets fire to the house and at the same time commits theft of property. Explain the liability of A.
This problem is identical with illustration (b) of Sec. 111. A is guilty of abetting the burning of the house. However, he is not guilty of abetting the theft; for the theft was a distinct act, and not a probable consequence of the burning.

1. Start recycling – What’s that? You already recycle? Awesome! Now it’s time for you to step it up a notch. Start by looking for new things to recycle, more and more products are placing recycle symbols on their packaging, so check out everything to see if it is able to be recycled. Check with your garbage pick up or transfer station to get their most up to date list of what they will accept.
2. Cut down on gasoline use – I know, I know, you have a million errands to run, have to get to work, pick up groceries, get the kids to soccer practice, the list goes on and on. So how do we cut our gasoline use? Walk, bike, run, if you must drive, try combining errands into as few trips as possible and visit areas that have the shops you need to visit all in a close proximity.
3. Cut your water use – If you’re in a rural area and on a well, it probably won’t save you much money, but those on supplied water systems could save a bundle. Items like low flow shower heads, dual flush toilets (they make modification kits if you don’t already have a dual flush) and being more cognizant of your use will help cut back. For instance, if you’re shaving, try filling the sink with water rather than leaving the water running non-stop, this could save gallons of water at a clip and lessen the amount you need to heat up.
4. Change out your bulbs – Tisk tisk, you’re still running those incandescent light bulbs… Did you know a mere 20% of the energy produced off a bulb actually creates light? The rest is just wasted in heat. Switch to CFL’s and save a bundle, plus they’ll last longer. Now if you can’t bring yourself to dispose of a perfectly good bulb, that’s ok, use it until it dies, but keep a stock pile of CFL’s to start replacing those burnt out incandescent bulbs with.
5. Eat local - I challenge you to step out and find a farmers market or store that sells local goods. Not only is the quality of the food better and more nutritious, but you help support your local community. I’m not saying you have to shop there all the time, but look into it. On top of getting better food, it also makes for a great family outing.
6. Energy Star – If you’re looking to replace an old or outdated appliance, focus your shopping around energy star appliances. They are required to meet specific government standards in efficiency and are likely to save you money in the long run. Generally speaking, they are competitively priced against other non energy star products, so you only stand to gain out of this route.
7. Insulation and caulking – Do you know how well your home is insulated? When we bought our home, we found the walls were pretty well insulated, however, they forgot to insulate around door and window frames, a bit of spray in foam made a huge difference. Year round, that’s heating and cooling dollars heading right outside. Check where ever you can for insulation, and consider adding caulk or insulation around windows and doors to seal off air flow.
8. Cut the paper –Sign up with your bank to receive your statements online. The phone company, cable company, the list goes on and on, are all doing it now. They’re all trying to reduce their costs through mailing, so it serves a dual purpose. It’s really easy and takes less than 5 minutes to do, so what are you waiting for? There are also companies that can help eliminate junk mail for a small fee.
9. Unplug – You know that alarm clock in the spare bedroom that no one ever sleeps in? Well, it’s costing you money, and probably a lot more than you would think. Take a few minutes now and create a list of gadgets, lamps, chargers, etc that you could easily unplug and not notice. Remember, every one of them means a little bit of change in your pocket! Too lazy? Look into power strips with remote shut offs.
10. Wash clothes in cold water – Your clothes really don’t need to sit in a nice warm bath for twenty minutes. Ok, sure, you got grass stains on your pants from the impromptu football game, maybe just maybe you could use some warm water to help. But for the bulk of your washing needs, using cold water will do just as good a job and will save you a ton of money since you won’t have to heat all that extra water.
So that’s it, ten quick tips that you can use to get started on your greener lifestyle. Most of these are simple and will help save you money, so you really have little to lose.
I don’t usually comment but I gotta tell thankyou for the post on this amazing one : D.
