STORIES DISCUSSED ON TODAY'S 'GREEN NEWS REPORT'...
Pope Francis Publishes Unprecedented Environmental Encyclical:
Pope's Views on Climate Change Add Pressure to Catholic Candidates (NY Times):
As the steamy hurricane season descends on Miami, the city's Roman Catholic archbishop, Thomas G. Wenski, is planning a summer of sermons, homilies and press events designed to highlight the threat that a warming planet, rising sea levels and more extreme storms pose to his community's poorest and most vulnerable.
The pope's five most important environmental arguments (MSNBC):
In a much-anticipated papal letter released by the Vatican on Thursday, his holiness offered a sweeping defense of "our common home," warning "every living person on this planet" about wrecking the place with "consumerism," "individualism," and "an unprecedented destruction of ecosystems."

IEA Warns World On Track To Overshoot 2C Target:
Every country is now pledging to tackle CO2 emissions. It's still not enough. (Vox.com):
In other words, if the world wants to stay below 2°C of global warming — which has long been considered the danger zone for climate change — these pledges are only a first step. Countries will have to do a whole lot more than they're currently promising. And the IEA has a few ideas for what "do a whole lot more" might entail.
1. Increase energy efficiency in the industry, buildings, and transport sectors.
2. Progressively reduce the use of the least efficient coal-fired power plants and banning their construction.
3. Increase investment in renewable energy technologies in the power sector from $270 billion in 2014 to $400 billion in 2030.
4. Gradually phase out fossil fuel subsidies to end-users by 2030.
5. Reduce methane emissions in oil and gas production.
World Off Course To Prevent Two Degrees C Warming, Says Energy Agency (Washington Post):
In a major report to be released Monday, the Paris-based International Energy Agency — which provides independent energy analysis and has 29 member countries, including the United States — will state that current national commitments to cut greenhouse gases are still insufficient to keep the world below two degrees Celsius of warming above preindustrial levels.
India Quintuples Down On Solar:
India Just Upped Its Solar Target Five-Fold, Will Install More Solar This Year Than Germany (Climate Progress):
On Wednesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Indian Cabinet approved increasing the country's solar target five times to a goal of reaching 100 gigawatts, up from 20 GW, by 2022.

'GREEN NEWS EXTRA' (Stuff we didn't have time for in today's audio report)...
Inside the Power Plant Fueling America's Drought (Pro Publica):
Arizona's Navajo Generating Station, the largest power plant in the West, powers pumps that lift trillions of gallons of water out of the Colorado River and carry it 336 miles to fuel growth in Tucson and Phoenix. As the generators spin, they spew more more greenhouse gases than almost any other coal plant in the U.S.
Senate GOP Moves Against Obama Green Agenda Via Spending (The Hill):
A Senate spending panel advanced a bill Tuesday to block or weaken key Obama administration environmental rules on climate change, water and other subjects.
World's Aquifers Being Badly Depleted, Satellite Data Show (SF Gate):
California's drought has put the great Central Valley aquifer system under critical stress, but many of the world's major groundwater basins are in far worse shape, a new satellite survey has found.
Plan for Fracking's Waste Pits Could Save Millions of Birds (InsideClimate News):
Federal agency aims to save the 500,000 to 1 million birds that die in the industry's vats of oily residue each year.
Alaska's Glaciers Are Now Losing 75 Billion Tons of Ice Every Year (Washington Post):
In a new study, scientists with the University of Alaska at Fairbanks and several other institutions report a staggering finding: Glaciers of the United States' largest — and only Arctic — state, Alaska, have lost 75 gigatons (a gigaton is a billion metric tons) of ice per year from 1994 through 2013.
Alaska Wildfires Destroy Dozens of Homes, Menace Highway (Reuters):
Two fast-spreading Alaska wildfires have forced a series of evacuations, destroyed up to 45 homes and forced authorities to restrict traffic on a major highway connecting two of the state's largest cities, state officials said on Monday.
NOAA Mobilizes To Gauge Unprecedented West Coast Toxic Algal Bloom (Phys.org):
NOAA Fisheries' Northwest Fisheries Science Center in Seattle has mobilized extra scientists to join a fisheries survey along the West Coast to chart an extensive harmful algal bloom that spans much of the West Coast and has triggered numerous closures of important shellfish fisheries in Washington, Oregon and California.
8 maps that reveal Americans' incoherent opinions on climate change (Vox.com):
Here's a puzzler: more people believe climate change is happening than believe that scientists believe climate change is happening. Why, Americans? For whatever reason, it appears the long effort to push the consensus message has not been very successful. (Worth noting: the consensus message is true.)
NOAA Study Confirms Global Warming Speed-Up Is Imminent (Climate Progress) [emphasis added]:
[M]any recent studies have found that we are about to enter an era of even more rapid global warming...[O]ne March study, "Near-term acceleration in the rate of temperature change," warns the speed-up is imminent - with Arctic warming rising a stunning 1°F per decade by the 2020s.

4 Scenarios Show What Climate Change Will Do To The Earth, From Pretty Bad To Disaster (Fast CoExist):
But exactly how bad is still an open question, and a lot depends not only on how we react, but how quickly. The rate at which humans cut down on greenhouse gas emissions--if we do choose to cut them--will have a large bearing on how the world turns out by 2100, the forecasts reveal.
How to Solve Global Warming: It's the Energy Supply (Scientific American):
Restraining global warming to no more than 2 degrees Celsius will require changing how the world produces and uses energy to power its cities and factories, heats and cools buildings, as well as moves people and goods in airplanes, trains, cars, ships and trucks, according to the IPCC. Changes are required not just in technology, but also in people's behavior.

BkiUdN45qYVBWXyirtYm | This colorful project in the heart of Rome is titled, "True Soul of a Lawyer" by Architect and Interior Designer Maurizio Giovannoni. Its owner is a single man, a busy lawyer named Rosario, who goes to meetings in a tie and suit but wants to have a home that is a relaxing contrast to his formal profession. The owner envisioned a place to pass the time with friends and to entertain where people can be themselves without their work roles. The project reflects the philosophy of "hometelling" where all the details of the apartment are connected to the story that the overall design tells.
The theme of the apartment is yellow, it recalls the sunny days of its owner's childhood in Suditalia, Sorrento. Creating this nostalgia was a goal for the designer since the client lives in hectic Rome. The design of the home is unique in that it has a strong artistic touch because of the gifts and contributions of various artists. On the yellow living room wall, there is a portable cactus, made of iron and a gift from designer-architect Marco Ferranti. The magnificent bookshelf, made of iron and wood, extends from the floor to the ceiling and is a commissioned work from a Taiwanese group of architects, Ganna Studio. The styling of the apartment was assisted by the architect, Rosa Topputo, who can be seen in front of the yellow signature wall.
The first impression of the room is the bold wallpaper by Perswall, which showcases legends of jazz. These are people who had the courage to be themselves and create standout music from their talent and creativity. The first view is always important, it is the view a visitor sees entering the apartment, It is like the opening chapter of a novel or the first chord of a musical piece; it gives the idea of the whole by just one glance. The living room encourages people to play with their identities, even to show their hidden sides. It is reminiscent of a film set because of the Flos lamps that resemble spotlights.
While the living room is impressive and powerful, the kitchen is purposely more modest and minimalist – mostly white with some joyous yellow details.
The composition of candle holders above the kitchen table is from Danish Menu's Pov collection. The home is quite small, but this does not mean it is a hindrance for the designer, instead it is a challenge.
The apartment has a beautiful large terrace which looks over Rome from the 7th floor. The floor of the home and the terrace are made of the same material to create the effect of one continuous space. The climate in Rome is good for most of the year, so the home is practically enlarged by other 25 square meters (269 square feet).
When the renovation started, the apartment was also full of inner walls, which were all removed to let the light flow and create large open space. This idea was even extended into the bedroom, which is connected to the living room by a smart solution: one wall opened by bookshelves.
He used that bold signature color perfectly. Kudos to Maurizio on this design.
I LOVE his bright and bold statement and it does say light and FUN! | c4 | 4 | 1 | 4 | 1 |

- Reject Senator Sanders Deceptive Infrastructure Plan -
By Dr. Kathleen Brown
Dr. Kathleen Brown practiced dermatology for 21 years in Oregon and founded Oregon Coast Dermatology in 2011 as an alternative to a broken healthcare system. She and her husband currently live in Montana and now run Montana Dermatology.
Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders and his allies call their $3.5 trillion budget bill an "infrastructure" plan. But look high and low, and you won't find mention of a single road or bridge. What you will find is the biggest expansion of government interference in health care in decades – one that, advances the government takeover of healthcare.
As a physician, I can say without hesitation that this is the wrong direction for American health care.
The plan allocates some $1.3 trillion towards government-run healthcare schemes, a whopping 1.5 times more expensive than Obamacare. And remember, Obamacare cost taxpayers and enrollees far more than what we were initially told. The Sanders plan will be no different – you can expect that $1.3 trillion price-tag to be the floor.
Sen. Sanders is following a well-worn Washington playbook – gradually get more people off (excessively regulated) private insurance plans and into government programs to build government dependency and create constituencies for more and bigger government. This is a vicious cycle that, in this case, inevitably leads to government-run health care, and less choice for individuals.
To start, the bill would spend $370 billion to expand Medicare benefits for hearing, vision, and dental – benefits that Medicare beneficiaries already have access to at no additional cost to taxpayers through Medicare Advantage plans. In fact, Medicare Advantage plans already attract more than 40 percent of Medicare beneficiaries.
But, Medicare Advantage plans are private insurance products that compete with each other to deliver benefits to willing seniors under Medicare's oversight. To Sen. Sanders and his allies, that looks too much like a free market, and they don't like it. They believe adding new benefits will move people from this more competitive, efficient, and consumer-friendly option into traditional, government-centered Medicare – even though it would mean higher premiums for beneficiaries, higher costs for taxpayers, or both.
The plan would also expand Obamacare in two flawed ways.
First, it would offer Medicaid directly to individuals in states that chose not to participate in the Obamacare's Medicaid expansion. Because Medicaid pays doctors far less than even what Medicare does, they are far less likely to accept Medicaid patients compared to patients with private health insurance. This drastically limits who Medicaid recipients can see and their access to care.
Medicaid is also terribly wasteful. In just two years it reported $143 billion in improper payments. Even more concerning is that Medicaid often provides substandard care, with a major study concluding that the program "generated no significant improvement in measured physical health outcomes."
Americans already spend more than $600 billion a year on this wasteful and ineffective program. Yet Sen. Sanders thinks we should expand it. That is not the way to improve it.
Second, the plan would make permanent the increased Obamacare subsidies that were part of Covid relief, with much of that aid going to those who do not need it. A recent study conducted by health care expert Brian Blase, PhD, found that under this proposal "a family of four with a 60-year-old head of household and income of 600 percent of the federal poverty level (FPL), or $159,000 a year, would qualify for an annual [Obamacare subsidy] of $16,845."
Furthermore, the Congressional Budget Office says the vast majority of this new spending would go to those who already have insurance, providing a huge incentive for some private companies to push employees off their company-sponsored private plans and onto the Obamacare exchanges.[7] The result would once again be more Americans on government-run health care and a shift in cost from the private sector to taxpayers.
There is a pattern here.
And of course, what wasteful Washington budget would be complete without a special-interest giveaway? In this case, a gift to the unions in the form of $400 billion to expand adult in-home and day care through Medicaid. In many states, these workers are designated "public employees" because Medicaid pays them, so they must join a union. This is special interest pork-barreling at its worst and it decreases choices for these workers.
One way Sen. Sanders proposes to pay for all this is to allow the government to fix the prices of prescription drugs. It sounds like a simple solution. But one only has to look to European nations with similar policies to see that allowing the government to set price controls inevitably leads to drug shortages and fewer new cures and therapies, effectively inserting the government directly into your medicine cabinet.
If the Covid pandemic taught us anything, it is that the way to get Americans quicker access to more life-saving drugs and treatments is to remove governmental obstacles and empower innovators. But price fixing does the opposite by deterring investment into research and development. As a result, vulnerable patients, including those waiting on cures for rare and complex diseases, will suffer most.
Congress needs to reject this government health care takeover masquerading as an infrastructure plan. We have serious health care issues in this country, and they can be addressed through personal options for health care that give people more choice and control over their own care. But, surreptitious efforts to move Americans off the private health plans they like onto government systems will only make matters worse.
In spite of the enormous intervention of government into healthcare and the governmental protectionism afforded to the giant health insurance companies, hospitals, unions, and pharmaceutical companies, new entrepreneurial solutions are developing. The last thing that we need to do is shut them down or crowd them out by further protecting the giant market incumbents and enlarging the role of government in healthcare. More choice, more freedom, is an American value.

BkiUfv025V5jcCRIJ9xl | Torso of Adele
This sculpture from Auguste Rodin is loosely dated at around 1878-1884. It features the model, Adèle Abbruzzesi, who was one of the artist's favourite choices for his live figure pieces. The initial work was in plaster, before being completed in terracotta.
Rodin loved to use live models as inspiration for his sculptures and he would often also complete drawings and paintings of them in order to make notes for future reference. In some cases he may re-use models for days on end before finding the right idea for his work and he would then meticulously amend his sculptures over a long period before arriving at the completed piece. He would also change his titles many times and preferred to leave a name until after the work was completed, which he felt allowed him more freedom to work as he wished. In this case perhaps he found it much more easy than normal, as he simply refers to what he depicted, which is the torso of his model, Adèle Abbruzzesi. She is known to have an admirable body, slim and toned like a dancer and this seems to have suited Rodin's sculptural style. He also put great emotion into his work and felt that his best ones were akin to living beings.
This sculpture was eventually used in the Gates of Hell, though added after many of the other elements. Initially it was without legs before they were added as late as 1889. There are also similarities between this torso and elements from two other sculptures, namely Eternal Springtime and also Illusions Received by the Earth. Documentation mentioning the original piece have suggested that the Torso of Adele was originally a study piece which Rodin then decided to develop onwards as he started to appreciate the direction of this work. He felt that this model could help him deliver truly sensual sculptures and so he happily re-used her services many times. These sculptures may have strengthened the bond between the two as well as he sometimes blurred the lines between sculpture and human life.
Rodin was someone whose appearance was of a huge, imposing man but he actually held an incredibly delicate touch when it came to understand and depicting the female body. He managed to recreate the beautiful features of this young woman to a level of near perfection. Some would even question his working methods sometimes, because of the level of accuracy that he produced. In reality, it was a combination of hard work, natural flair and also a deep thinking mind that seemed able to connect with his model's emotions as well as the very subtle variations in their physical structures. | commoncrawl | 4 | 3 | 5 | 2 |

Byrne makes strong early impression with Bayhawks
Josh Byrne (42) of the Bayhawks exploded for seven goals in Chesapeake's game against the Rochester Rattlers last weekend. The left-handed Canadian was named MLL Rookie of the Week in recognition of the performance. (Sarah Michaels/HANDOUT)
Josh Byrne made quite an impression during his initial practice with the Chesapeake Bayhawks on June 1. In fact, after seeing the rookie attackman in-person for the first time, head coach Brian Reese was regretting not activating him for the following night's game against Ohio.
"We saw something special in Josh that very first night. He brought some excitement and charisma to the field," Reese said. "He showed tremendous stick skills and an ability to score in a variety of ways."
A video from that practice was posted to the team's website and shows Byrne using a difficult back-handed flip to hit the top corner of the cage from about 12 yards away. The former Hofstra standout did more of the same in his Major League Lacrosse debut last Saturday night.
Byrne exploded for seven goals to lead a big comeback by Chesapeake in an eventual 17-16 loss to the Rochester Rattlers. The left-handed Canadian was named MLL Rookie of the Week in recognition of the impressive performance, which showcased his versatility.
"I really liked that Josh scored in a bunch of different ways. He got goals by cutting and dodging, man up and six-on-six, right-handed and left-handed," Reese said. "What we saw was that Josh is very good off-ball. He has a real knack for getting open."
Reese related that Byrne told him afterward that he should have scored nine or 10 goals and was upset at not finishing a few good opportunities.
"You don't ever expect to come in and score that many goals in your first game," Byrne said this week. "You have those kind of games when everything works out perfectly. If you look at the highlights, there were a couple goals when I was wide open."
Indeed, Byrne scored two goals from the doorstep and one-on-one with the goalie after getting behind the defense. One came off a nice feed by long stick midfielder C.J. Costabile during an unsettled situation while the other came when Rochester faceoff specialist Drew Simoneau accidentally threw a pass right to Byrne while trying to play the ball back to his defense.
General manager Dave Cottle felt he had gotten a steal when Chesapeake chose Byrne in the third round of the 2017 Collegiate Draft late last month. The 6-foot-3, 200-pounder was named a third team All-American after leading Hofstra with 66 points (41 goals, 25 assists) as a senior. He totaled 111 points in two seasons with the Pride after transferring from nearby Nassau Community College.
"I thought Josh Byrne was the sleeper of the draft. I went to see him play in CAA Tournament and was very impressed," Cottle said. "Josh plays so freaking hard. He is a big, strong lefty who is extremely skilled. He reminds me a lot of Mark Matthews."
[More from sports] Navy football 2020 review: Quarterback holds the key to improvement on offense »
Matthews was a prolific scorer at the University of Denver and is now plying his trade with the Saskatchewan Rush of the National Lacrosse League and Atlanta Blaze of MLL.
"I grew up watching Mark Matthews highlights. He was the first field player to start throwing box lacrosse fakes, doing toe drags and other crazy stuff," Byrne said. "I feel very blessed to be mentioned in the same sentence as Mark Matthews. I guess the comparison is that I'm a big lefty like him."
Byrne got to play alongside another one of great indoor players he grew up idolizing as a kid in New Westminster, British Columbia. Shawn Evans, who has amassed more than 1,000 points during his indoor professional career, used a tremendous move from behind the net to set up Byrne for one of several goals he got from cutting to the crease.
"Shawn Evans is an unreal talent. I've been watching him play for years. On that play, he put the ball right on my stick and it was like a tap-in goal," Byrne said. "Obviously, when you're playing with superstars like Shawn Evans and Matt Danowski, it makes life a lot easier. I was completely uncovered a lot last week. From here on out, there will probably be a better scouting report and I'll get a little more defensive attention."
That is exactly what Reese is hoping in the wake of Byrne's scoring spree, which produced the second-highest goal output by a rookie in MLL history.

"Do we expect Josh to score seven goals every game? Of course not," Reese said. "However, Josh has shown he can put the ball in the cage if left open so that gives us another weapon that opponents have to account for, which will open up things for others on offense."
Byrne, for one, is not getting too carried away by the hot start to his professional career. The 2017 Colonial Athletic Association Player of the Year is not going to change his style and start shooting all the time.
"I'm going to continue to do what I do, which is work hard off the ball. If I get open and get a chance, I'm going to try to put it away," he said. "I've still got a long way to go. I need to get a lot stronger, a lot faster to be able to compete in this league. There are so many unreal defenseman that can shut you down. I have so much room for growth."
However, Byrne does believe the fast-paced, free-wheeling nature of Major League Lacrosse is an ideal match for his playing style. Having played box lacrosse from a young age, he is accustomed to having a shot clock and banging the ball around quickly.
"Personally, I like the MLL game a lot better because it is faster and more wide-open. You can take more chances on offense because there isn't such a premium placed on maintaining possession," Byrne said. "I think the transition game of MLL suits me well."
Byrne is still living on Long Island, doing some private coaching and working a bunch of camps.

"I want to get into coaching in some capacity. I really enjoy working with kids," said Byrne, who referred to Hofstra head coach Seth Tierney as a "father figure."

BkiUdv3xaKgQKLxdcEpZ | Has it been two, three, four years or more since you revisited your Adverse Action Notification processes? There have been many significant changes in the correct administration of the Adverse Action process in recent history.
We have recently adopted new Pre-adverse Action and Adverse Action templates to help support your quest for compliance.
Reach out and we can make them available to you and help you manage these processes through our background screening platform.
Some positive new features include having implemented a new and highly capable delivery platform for our clients that will allow the personalization of each letter. This is very important in states like California, for example, where the same form letter sent to each candidate will not achieve compliance effectively.
Another new feature is the ability for our system to remind you to order Adverse Action notifications after Pre-adverse action notifications have been sent and the proper amount of time has passed. These new tools will allow you to meet and exceed the requirements while minimizing the leg work required to get the job done.
Take the time to review your current notices and practices. Let's make compliance a top priority in 2019.

Nice. Really, very nice. Water colors?
Well, thank you for sharing. I see that you can paint. I also see that you have had some degree of art education and training. Now to the painting. Good faded background transitional movement from the varied greens at the bottom to the multi toned yellows. Very ethereal. Keeping the same feeling in the stems going from greens to yellows and yellow ochre with a suggestion of stem forms. The whites and dark to light varied blue and periwinkle controlled location splotches under the whites give depth. Nice. I don't think you intended to make those dark shadowy spots in the green field, but it works to add depth and interest to the background. I like the organized randomness of the flowers with that strong diagonal movement of dark leaf, flower pod arrangement across the lower flower field. I find the finishing touch of only three flowers placed together that have the yellow ochre centers a beautiful display of a knowledge about how to have a delicate touch and an understanding of creating eye movement within a painting by having that single yellow ochre spot in the white flower on the upper right. Can't help to feel calm and comfortable looking at this painting.

Thank you so much for your comments on my paintings.
I know some of you here are experienced painter,and everyone's comments on my future study is very helpful.
I think it is beautiful. I love the combination of colors and the soft mood you created. Well done!
looking forward your new work.
I pretty much agree with CarlOwen's assessment. That said, while pretty, it's not all that compelling. Feels like something is missing.
I love the colors! Very well done!
I respectfully disagree with Joseph Bellofatto's critic about it needing something. Not all paintings need to make a statement or possess the power of attraction. Some simply need to be a gentle, kind reminder of simple beauty that is around us all the time if we only take the time to see it. Particularly when it possesses almost perfect composition. This is one of those paintings.

I do totally agree. Everyoone is an artist I think. What we need to do is discovery beautiful and show it on your own way because of the eye's view is quite different.
Amazing colors and great DOF. I love the cold-warm contrast and this is really a painting I like!!!

BkiUenvxK6Ot9UjECoD4 | Opera's Dido: from Queen of Carthage to single mum in Bermondsey
The story might feel flimsy but the emotions are anything but. The director of a new take on Purcell's Dido and Aeneas explains how she is rethinking the opera for a teenage audience

People often ask me about how you make opera "relevant" to a young audience. It's not a question I like much. When I was a child, I hated it when adults spoke or behaved differently towards me because of my age. Adults talk down to young people all the time, and I don't know where they get the nerve. In fact, one of the first performances of Dido and Aeneas was at Josias Priest's school for girls in London – and that was in 1689. So the question seems a bit out of date. My view is: if you like opera, why wouldn't a young person like it just the same?
I first heard Dido and Aeneas when I was 11. There was a production of it at my school. One of the sixth form sung Dido, younger girls made up the chorus. I wasn't involved myself, but I loved it, and afterwards I listened to it so much on tape (tape!) that I could more or less sing every word from memory. So this opera has always felt like an old friend – but I wouldn't call myself an opera person. I maybe went once or twice with school, but other than that not at all.
But Dido did stay with me. Years later, I was on my way to work – as artistic director of the Unicorn, and I was listening to it on headphones on the tube – not a tape, this time – when I suddenly had an idea for how one could do one of its middle scenes. I got excited, and started thinking about how one might do the whole thing. Nothing concrete, just starting to imagine what a staging might look like. I usually think about a piece of work for a very, very long time before I start working on it practically, and I reckon I probably brewed Dido for at least a year and a half before I even mentioned it to anyone.

Daniel Kramer had just taken over at English National Opera as their artistic director, and he and I started a conversation in the street one night. I've always wanted to do Dido, I told him. Come pitch to me, he said. So I did, and he said yes. We always knew we wanted to stage it at the Unicorn, but the Unicorn theatre isn't an opera house, and we initially didn't know how we'd be able to bring together either the musical expertise or the number of people involved to stage something like this. Daniel and ENO as co-producers made that possible.
In a nutshell, ENO has been responsible for the music, and the Unicorn has taken charge of the staging and technical aspects of the show, though obviously it's important not to think of them as separate. I love watching what the conductor, Valentina Peleggi, can achieve in rehearsal. We're enjoying figuring out together what this piece can be.
I was interested in whether a different perspective might chime with our audience. I started thinking about the way a lot of teenagers support their parents' emotional lives
I've always really liked baroque music: it feels both very truthful and very heightened all at once. I like to play with artifice in my work, and play with whether things are real or illusory. In a theatre, there are lots of different ways in which you can make something seem real – but often the workings are hidden. I like playing with showing you how we do things rather than pretending they just happen, because I think that creates a paradox which can draw an audience further into a moment – even if it also keeps them at a distance. That's what I think baroque music does – by keeping you slightly at bay, it draws you in further. And the music in Dido is completely sublime. The story's a bit flimsy, which happens in a lot of operas. The more important thing is that the emotions be true, and that's what we're going for in this staging.
I didn't want to "make the opera relevant" but I was interested in whether a different perspective might chime with the audience we're expecting. I started thinking about the way in which a lot of teenagers support their parents' emotional lives – particularly where parents are single parents, I think it often happens that a child becomes a confidant and friend as well. This gave me an idea for how to approach Dido – an idea I stole, to be honest, from a Belgian director called Wouter Van Looy – in which the character Belinda (who is a lady-in-waiting in the original score) could perhaps be seen as Dido's daughter. Most of us don't have ladies in waiting, but we do all have families of one kind or another, so by looking at Belinda in this way Dido also becomes the story of a single parent who makes bad relationship choices. I felt that was something that young people could probably connect with, though we don't ever state explicitly that's who Belinda is.

The new production also aims to plainly show its audience the workings of what we're doing. Unlike conventional opera houses, our musicians are on stage, you can see everything they do. If a scene is set up, it's set up by the chorus. If some furniture has to be moved, it's moved by the singers. It is a short opera, and we've only cut one section, not to make anything "easier" but because we all wanted to move forward to the ending. What we are interested in, essentially, is here are 23 people: a conductor, the musicians, the principles, the chorus, who have come together in this space – we are always in SE1 – and what these people can do, if they put their minds together, is put on an opera for you.
What I find so extraordinary about Purcell's work, opera, and art in general: that humans have done these things and that it is about being human. And that is what we're hoping to share.

BkiUdyQ4eIOjRst9_dBq | It is very conveniently located in the Frogner area towards Skillebekk, south of Bygdøy Allée. It's right by the Skillebekk tram 13 station. It is surrounded by 1900's historical buildings and just minutes away from the romantic Clarion hotel magnificently covered in red leaves in autumn.
As expected, it is a fine dining place with white pressed tablecloths. However it is rather small and on a warm day it can be a bit too hot and noisy. Indeed there are probably 10 tables in a tiny room and because of their top ranking on TripAdvisor I can imagine how it can be full every day.
It was not easy to have a romantic conversation that night, but the food and most importantly the service made up for it.
Beautiful cheese platter with all the name and origins of each cheese. Don't be shy and ask for a refill of their home baked fruit bread. I did and was not disappointed!
The service is definitely what sets this place apart. Sergio checks in with each individual table.
First he came and offer a complimentary glass of champagne to start the dinner. He quickly spotted we were French so we had all our conversations in French.
10 minutes later Sergio came back with two plates containing each a scallop and a lobster tail on a dill and sour cream sauce and a curry chutney. He said "Try this!".
It was delicious and we were so amazed that he came back with a new combination of flavors that totally took into account our feedback! And imagine the cost of these extra scallops and lobster for the kitchen! We loved having that connection with Sergio, we felt we were speaking the same language and that whole experience si definitely a great story to tell!
A Hos Thea you can pick à la Carte or your can choose from 4 or 6 courses of a degustation menu, with out without matching wines.
Hubby selected the 4 course menu with matching wines. I'm not a big drinker so I asked for just one glass of wine for the whole meal. What they ended up doing was to serve me 2 or 3 different wines to match my dishes, in smaller quantities and ended up only charging the price of one glass!
The bill: total around kr 1,700 (€175) for both of us with all the wine we could take and the champagne and the whole gastronomic experience.
Most similar high end place would charge in excess of kr 2,000! This is probably why Hos Thea is ranked #1 with TripAdvisor. Interestingly enough, Hubby was expecting a lot more from this place, perhaps something like a signature dish or a distinctive touch on all the dishes. Something that clearly explains their #1 position.

This paper considers models of intratemporal consumption–labor choice and intertemporal consumption choice under heterogeneity and private information in preferences towards labor. We show that market regime regarding unemployment insurance is important to determine the effects of heterogeneity and private information on allocations and valuations. There are two main results. First, intertemporal choice can mitigate adverse selection. Second, in countries where unemployment insurance is generous capital markets should have low usage and the risk-free rate of return is low. However, in countries where unemployment insurance is less generous, capital markets should have more usage and the risk-free rate of return is higher.

BkiUe9XxK02iP15vhJ1I | Smell that? The cinnamon pastries, the pumpkin spice lattes, the dry leaves? Yes…fall is coming. Let's get ready! Have you bought your season tickets to your college team? Have you put away your tank tops and wedges and pulled out your cardigans and boots? Have you replaced your cotton sheets with flannel sheets to help you stay cozy when the cooler temperatures arrive?
Carbon monoxide, according to the CDC, is produced by fireplaces, furnaces, stoves, and gas ranges. The odorless, colorless gas is often called the silent killer because it's practically undetectable if you don't have a carbon monoxide detector.
Carbon monoxide poisoning can be deadly to adults, children, and pets. Over 20,000 people visit the emergency room each year as a result of carbon monoxide poisoning. Typical CO poisoning symptoms include dizziness, headache, chest pain, and upset stomach. Since the symptoms seem like the flu, many people might not recognize they could be seriously ill.
With the drop in temperatures causing homeowners to switch on their furnaces, carbon monoxide poisoning increases during the cold months while everyone is doing everything they can to stay warm. When correctly installed by certified technicians, appliances such as furnaces will safety release carbon monoxide outdoors, but your furnace should be inspected annually to make sure there are no issues that could result in poisoning from CO.
Climate Control Service Experts says you should be replacing household carbon monoxide detectors every five years, and testing your carbon monoxide and fire detectors monthly to ensure the batteries and alarm are functioning properly. Fall is an excellent time to inspect your home's CO and smoke detectors, and replace or install them if necessary.
As part of a Precision tune-up from Climate Control Service Experts, our team will check your furnace to make sure it is operating properly and inspect for carbon monoxide leaks. Through November 25th, Climate Control Service Experts will be giving discounts on our heating and air conditioning Precision tune-ups to help families make sure their furnace will function safety and efficiently throughout the upcoming cold season. Homeowners can also look into U.S. governmental tax credits of up to $500 for qualifying HVAC equipment that can be earned through the end of 2016.
To keep your loved ones safe and warm through the cold season, call Climate Control Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning today at 251-202-7503to schedule your Fall Precision tune-up, or set up a no-charge in-home estimate for a new, energy-efficient HVAC system. | c4 | 4 | 1 | 2 | 2 |

BkiUdwk4dbgheBXBResu | Exclusive: Justice Department issues new subpoena to National Archives for more January 6 documents
By Jamie Gangel and Evan Perez, CNN
Updated 2:37 PM EDT, Tue August 23, 2022
Why new Trump lawsuit shows disagreement behind the scenes
Washington CNN —
The Justice Department has issued a new grand jury subpoena to the National Archives for more documents as part of its investigation into the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol, two sources familiar with the investigation tell CNN.
This latest subpoena, issued on August 17, is in addition to a subpoena the Department of Justice sent to the Archives earlier this year, requesting the same documents and information that the Archives had previously handed over to the House select committee investigating January 6.
This new subpoena, which has not been previously reported, is understood to request additional documents and data from the Archives, pertaining to a period of time both before and after January 6.
Thomas Windom, an assistant US Attorney, is leading the criminal probe into the effort to impede the transfer of power after the 2020 election, including the potential role played by former President Donald Trump and allies to organize a group of fake electors who could keep Trump in power despite losing the election. The US Attorney's Office declined to comment.
Tom Williams/CQ-Roll Call, Inc./Getty Images
DOJ talks with Trump lawyers mark a grave moment for the ex-President
The subpoena requests that the documents be produced by the end of August.
The new subpoena is the latest indication that the Justice Department is ramping up its investigation and has broadened the scope of its probe into the potential role White House staff played in events leading up to the attack on the Capitol that day.
Last week, CNN and others reported that Trump White House lawyer Eric Herschmann, who pushed back on efforts by the former President and his allies to overturn the 2020 election, had been subpoenaed by a federal grand jury investigating the events surrounding January 6.
Other Trump lawyers, including Pat Cipollone and Patrick Philbin, have also been subpoenaed, and DOJ officials have been gearing up to try to access direct communications with Trump when he was in office, which could set off a legal fight over executive privilege.

BkiUa8M5qsMAIvHrE747 | 6 Students Arrested After Hesser Dorm Brawl
Mark Hayward, New Hampshire Union Leader (Manchester, New Hampshire), December 15, 2009
Police charged six Hesser College students with felony riot early Tuesday morning when confronted with 50 screaming students while answering a call about an out-of-control fight, police said.
The incident took place during finals week, and the six students, three of them women, appeared in Manchester District Court Tuesday. Five face additional misdemeanors such as assault or resisting arrest. All were held on $1,000 cash or surety bail.
"This is an issue of people who were observed breaking the law. They were arrested and that's what it is," Mara said. "This has nothing to do with race. It has to do with breaking the law."
According to police reports, one student punched an officer, another wrestled with an officer, 50 students were screaming, and many refused to clear the hallway when ordered to do so. One had a camera and demanded to see and photograph badge numbers.
Students said police pushed through the crowded hallway and called them animals. They threw students to the floor, striking and kicking them.
"These students were outraged. That's your riot," said a student from Randolph, Mass., who did not want his name printed. He said police acted as if they were responding to a bar fight, rather than a place of higher learning.
Mara [Police Chief David Mara] said Officer Daniel Doherty was punched in the face but will return to work. Officer Jake Tyler's right finger was dislocated and his right hand left swollen; he will be out of work until the injury heals, Mara said.
According to police, the incident took place shortly after 1:30 a.m. Tuesday. College security was unable to control a fight in the dorm. Police reports say two Hesser College staff were injured; one security officer may have suffered a broken nose.
The six arrested were:
–Shamika Sanders, 23, of Hyde Park [Mass.], charged with riot and resisting arrest. Police allege she was yelling and taking photographs but would not go to her room when told to do so. She also photographed the injured security officer and blocked the room where he was being treated, reports say.
Sanders allegedly tried to swat away the hands of an officer who tried to arrest her. She was brought to the ground; police said three officers were required to put Sanders on her stomach and handcuff her.
–Dave Virgle, 22, of Randolph [Mass.], charged with riot, resisting arrest and two counts of simple assault on a police officer. Police allege that Virgle pushed Officer Doherty in the chest and punched him in the face while 50 students were yelling in the hallway.
Virgle allegedly cocked his right arm back as if he was going to punch Officer Matthew J. Winn, but was put on the ground and handcuffed after a minute-long struggle, according to police reports.
–Edouard Beaupin, 21, of Randolph [Mass.], for riot, felony resisting arrest and two charges of assault on a police officer.
Police allege Beaupin told Doherty not to arrest his cousin, and he pushed both Doherty and Officer Tyler. Both Beaupin and Tyler wrestled on the ground, and when other police intervened, Beaupin resisted attempts to be handcuffed. He was eventually pepper-sprayed.
–Momah Massaquoi, who turned 20 Monday, from Brockton [Mass.], charged with riot and resisting arrest. Police said he refused to leave the hallway when told to do so and refused to put his hands behind his back.
Police say when they put him on the ground, he struggled and was pepper-sprayed.
–Barbara Jean-Baptiste, 20, of Mattapan [Mass.], for riot and resisting arrest. Police allege she screamed at people and police after several others had been arrested. Police allege she refused to quiet down and leave the area when told to do so. She allegedly pulled her arm away when police walked her out of the building.
–Kinisha French, 23, of Mattapan [Mass.], charged with riot. Police said French allegedly refused to withdraw from a break room. She was arrested in a dorm room after she continued her loud behavior, police said.
All are scheduled for a Dec. 29 court hearing; all asked for public defenders.

This means the Trust is ranked as the second most improved in England for recruitment to these studies.
Dr Sarah Clarke, research and development manager at Hampshire Hospitals, which runs Andover War Memorial Hospital, Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital and Royal Hampshire County Hospital, in Winchester, said:
This is a fantastic achievement for everyone at Hampshire Hospitals.
We are a research active Trust and our staff are committed to providing high-quality research opportunities for our patients, while our achievements in 2018/19 demonstrate our capability to successfully deliver commercial research.
We know from feedback how much our patients appreciate being offered the chance to take part in studies investigating new forms of treatment, and our staff have worked exceptionally hard to ensure as many as possible are given this opportunity.
One of the departments involved in research and development is the Trust's Peritoneal Malignancy Institute, which is one of only two centres in the UK treating patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei, a rare abdominal cancer.
Mr Tom Cecil, colorectal surgeon and clinical director of the Peritoneal Malignancy Institute, said:
We have just completed a clinical trial for patients undergoing extensive abdominal surgery for pseudomyxoma peritonei.
The trial compared two different blood products given to patients to control blood loss during surgery. The new drug appears to be as effective, is easier and quicker to deliver and may potentially be safer. The benefits of this research could be far reaching and we are going to do more trials to further examine them.
Promoting, conducting and using clinical research to improve treatments, care and services for patients is part of the NHS England Constitution. The NIHR Research Activity League Table provides a picture of how much clinical research is happening, where, in what types of Trusts, and involving how many patients. The NIHR Research Activity League Table can be found on the NIHR website here
Researchers at Hampshire Hospitals will have the opportunity to work even more closely with colleagues across the NHS and in higher education following the creation of the Applied Research Collaboration Wessex (ARC Wessex).
ARC Wessex has been created thanks to an award of £9million from the NIHR and is one of 15 organisations of its type created across England. It will see organisations from across Dorset, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight and South Wiltshire work together to solve some of the big health issues in their communities.
The team in Wessex is spread across four universities, as well as 11 NHS Trusts and several local authorities, with doctors, nurses, health professionals and care staff working with academics to find practical solutions for patients and health and care systems.

BkiUdjk5qsNCPdwhfoC- | State employees stole over $6.7 million in unemployment benefits, Georgia audit alleges

A recent Georgia audit revealed that nearly 300 full-time state employees may have fraudulently collected unemployment benefits in 2020 and 2021.
WSB-TV Investigator Justin Gray broke the story on Wednesday morning after Georgia inspector general Scott McAfee sent a letter to Governor Brian Kemp (R), warning that an internal investigation uncovered that at least 280 state employees were suspected of stealing more than $6.7 million in unemployment benefits.
The employees are accused of applying for and collecting benefits while still employed by the state of Georgia.
McAfee's letter claimed that the investigation only included full-time employees still employed with the state. He noted that the reported number of alleged fraud cases was a "conservative estimate," considering the investigation did not include part-time employees, those no longer employed by the state, or those who received less than $1,000 in unemployment benefits.
"These payments averaged $24,700 per employee and totaled over $6.7 million. And this is a conservative estimate," the letter stated.
According to McAfee, the Office of the State Inspector General interviewed approximately 24 full-time state workers accused of fraudulently applying for unemployment benefits. As a result, "nearly all" were fired.
One of those employees included a Georgia Department of Labor unemployment insurance claims examiner who allegedly collected $31,220 in benefits. The letter stated that the employee repeatedly updated a fraudulent unemployment insurance account while working full-time with the GDOL.
The cases have been turned over to the Office of the Attorney General's Prosecution Division.
"It's shameful, in my opinion," Georgia Labor Commissioner-Elect Bruce Thompson told WSB-TV. "The fact that we have state employees committing fraudulent acts while we have other people who can't get payments due to them, that's a big problem."
"If you willfully do that, we should prosecute to the fullest, especially if you are a state employee," Thompson added.
According to the inspector general, the Department of Labor refused to cooperate with the IG's requests for information.
As a result of the alleged hindered investigation, McAfee's letter requested that the General Assembly pass legislation allowing the Office of the State Inspector General administrative subpoena authority.
DOL Commissioner Mark Butler denied the accusation made against his department.
"They wanted a lot of personal information about state employees that we could not legally hand over to them, especially not based upon a fishing expedition," Butler told WSB-TV. "It was not legally permissible."
McAfee suggested to Kemp that the state extend the statute of limitations for prosecuting pandemic-related fraud to provide adequate time to investigate the remaining cases. To crack down on future theft, the IG also recommended quarterly checks to ensure state employees have not submitted fraudulent applications.

BkiUa-I241xg-Gl0mPAn | Q: mysql query slow with index I have the following table structure.
SQL FIDDLE
Now I am using the following query
SELECT DATE(date),SUM(amount) FROM my_table WHERE type!=5
AND date BETWEEN '2014-01-01' AND '2014-01-04'
GROUP BY DATE(date) ORDER BY date DESC
This query is working on my development database which only has small number of rows. But this is very slow with the prod database and is taking almost 9 seconds to display the values for a week. I have indexes for date and type and my explain query is showing type as all. The prod DB almost has 700000 entries there.
How can I optimize this query further ??
A: I believe you are trying to find a way for the index to be referenced with your query. The MySQL documents talks about group by optimisation here:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/group-by-optimization.html
There are a number of points about what must be applicable for a loose scan to occur. While the documentation states that only MIN and MAX should be used you may find that adding the following index:
ADD INDEX `BTREE_OPT` (`type`, `date`, `amount`) USING BTREE
And then examining the explain extended you see the new inclusion of a an index usage:
mysql> EXPLAIN EXTENDED SELECT DATE( date ), SUM(amount) FROM my_table WHERE TYPE !=5 AND date BETWEEN '2014-01-01' AND '2014-01-04' GROUP BY DATE( date ) ORDER BY date DESC \G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
id: 1
select_type: SIMPLE
table: my_table
type: range
possible_keys: date,type,BTREE_OPT
key: BTREE_OPT
key_len: 4
ref: NULL
rows: 11
filtered: 100.00
Extra: Using where; Using index; Using temporary; Using filesort
1 row in set, 1 warning (0.00 sec)
Which may speed up the query.
A: In your query, you are using DATE(date) to extract the datetime part of the expression in use. But in your DDL, date is already defined as a datetime. This might be creating an overhead while execution. If your DDL is correctly defined with the correct datatype, I guess DATE(date) can be avoided to achieve better results.
Another approach is to force the SQL optimizer to use the Index applied on the columns. You can achieve this by modifying the query as:
SELECT DATE(date),SUM(amount) FROM my_table
USE INDEX(type,date)
WHERE type!=5
AND date BETWEEN '2014-01-01' AND '2014-01-04'
GROUP BY DATE(date) ORDER BY date DESC;

"I Haven't Given Up"
A Story of Resilience and Grit
Jules likes to seek attention. It's understandable this would be the case as he spent much of his first years neglected and alone. He's a sweet kid who loves to hold my hand when we walk places, likes to lean against me when we're waiting in line.
However, there were times when Jules would seek attention in ways that were not so endearing. If we were having a conversation about dinosaurs with his classmates at lunchtime, he would sometimes feel he was not being heard. He would tend to yell over people and interrupt, and I would remind him that when talking to our friends it's just as important to listen as to talk.
When running around at recess or at a park together he would purposely fall and be "hurt," looking for me to run to his aid. Mostly I would encourage him to get up and keep striving, talk to him about perseverance and grit, and how to communicate his needs with his words instead of flopping on the grass. Unusually he would get up and keep striving, sometimes he would stay laying on the grass bemoaning his circumstances.
In times like the latter I would sit down next to Jules and ask him what he needed, trying to get him to think about what his options were outside of falling over and stopping all together. We would come up with strategies like taking a break, asking to do something else, or taking a deep breath and keep going. Most of the time Jules would bounce back quickly when he was feeling like giving up, I could see his resilience growing little by little.
Last week Jules surprised me. We went to Sam Johnson Park to spend our outing time together. I had brought books to read in the shade, lots of different sports equipment, and, of course, we spent quite a bit of time on the zipline. After we had been to the park for a while we switched gears and Jules saw the whiffle ball and bat I'd brought. He'd never swung a baseball bat before and he decided he wanted to give it a shot.
We went out into the field and I showed him the basics. A baseball swing is a pretty complex action, but Jules is a great student and he listened attentively to everything I showed him. As one would imagine he missed the ball a lot more than he hit it, making contact maybe once every fifth pitch. I kept praising him for the good mechanics of his swing and reminding him that even the pros get a hit maybe 1 out of every 5 at-bats.
His face was a mask of determination, after every miss he would throw the ball back and reset, getting into his stance. As the minutes ticked by he was making progress, getting more and more hits. I was in the middle of tossing the ball again when lowered the bat and said,
"I've been doing this for a long time and I haven't given up yet." He was so proud, prouder than when he hit the ball thirty feet.
I walked to where he was batting and got on one knee. I told him that he was doing a great job hitting the baseball, but that I was most impressed with his grit. We had been hitting for almost 20 minutes, a long time for a six-year-old to do anything. I gave him a hug and asked him if he wanted to bat anymore.
"Maybe a couple more." We kept going for another 5 minutes after that. On the way back to his house I asked him if he would want to go to a Bend Elks game with me over the summer. He lit up.
"We can do that?" "Sure," I said. "We can definitely make that happen." | commoncrawl | 5 | 1 | 5 | 2 |

The new song 'Fake' by Lauv and Conan Gray sounded just that—fake.

Conan Gray (pictured above) makes his first ever artist collaboration in "Fake" with fellow singer-songwriter Lauv.
Jillian Snodgrass, Copy Editor
I'm a major fan of Conan Gray and recently have been longing for more music from him, but "Fake," which he co-wrote and sang with Ari Staprens Leff (Lauv), was not what I wanted whatsoever. It was frankly disappointing, and I genuinely hope future music from Gray does not follow the same pattern.
The first six seconds of the song were the most enjoyable, with a catchy bar or so of acoustic guitar from Lauv that was reminiscent of '90s rock. Unfortunately, it went downhill from there. After those six seconds, the music became much more electronic and very run-of-the-mill-sounding with the addition of a drum machine. In my opinion, Gray's best work is acoustic, so I was displeased with the amount of production on this record. The melody was overly simplistic and bland, and overall the song was virtually indistinguishable from any other on a pop radio station.
Additionally, the lyrics were much less profound and relatable than Gray's other music, and while this may be because the song was a collaboration, it is still upsetting that the quality of the songwriting was subpar. When compared to the lyrics from songs like "The Other Side," "Little League " and "The Story" (all by Gray, all beautiful songs), "Fake's" chorus of "You're so f***ing fake / you don't mean a single thing you say" seems especially shallow. The call-and-response portion of the verses was odd and didn't fit well into the song, and the whole thing felt forced and, ironically, fake. Even compared to Gray's songs like "Checkmate" or "Maniac," which definitely have a pop sound, "Fake" falls flat.
One of Gray's biggest strengths is his ability as a vocalist, and while that did shine through in a few places, most notably in the final chorus, for the most part "Fake" was lacking in the haunting sound and vocal quality that he is capable of. While Lauv is a good singer, Gray is better, and it was difficult to distinguish his vocals from behind Lauv's for most of the song. Their voices didn't mesh well together, and I feel that Gray would be better off writing and singing his own music without others' input.
Under ordinary circumstances, I would complain about the song's very brief two-minute 26-second run time, but these are not ordinary circumstances. As it is, I appreciate that the song was mercifully short; I don't think I could have taken listening to the chorus another time, let alone any more call-and-response verses. What could have been the song's only downfall is actually its only strength: it ends quickly.
"Fake" was a disappointment. Conan Gray and Lauv could have created a meaningful piece of music, but instead we were graced with yet another basic radio pop song that will (with good luck) be forgotten within a year. I only hope that Gray reverts back to his previous style after this letdown of a song.

Nina on October 27th, 2020 9:34 pm
While I definitely agree with Fake being a radio pop song, I think that you have to consider Lauv's contributions to the song. Most of Lauv's music follow Fake's trajectory: some type of instrumental intro followed by a repetitive beat with simple vocals. I doubt Gray's songs will follow this path because this song was definitely more of Lauv's typical sound, so maybe we can also celebrate the fact that Gray is experimenting with different genres and artists. I guess if Lauv's type of pop songs don't interest you, it would make sense to not like Fake.
I did enjoy the review and agree with your comparisons between Fake and Gray's songs, but once you compare Fake to Lauv's songs, it makes sense why it has that generic pop sound. But I do wish that Lauv would release more acoustic songs like Gray.

Iran's recent charm offensive is likely a ruse. But the only way to find out is to try diplomacy.
By Harry Kazianis for The Diplomat
Credit: Wikicommons
This Tuesday–whether in a possible meeting or simple photograph beamed across social media–the world may get a glimpse of what could be a possible U.S.-Iran rapprochement building steam. While the pitfalls and challenges to any warming of relations between Washington and Tehran would be great, it is clearly in both nations' interests to pursue such an effort. America should test Iran's new willingness to engage, but with its eyes wide open.
Clearly, recent events in both nations could pave the way towards a possible compromise.
In Iran, the election of a new president, Hassan Rouhani has excited Iran watchers for his moderate positions, positive comments in the Iranian press, and recent Washington Post op-ed calling for constructive engagement with the world. As Rouhani explained in the piece: "Rather than focusing on how to prevent things from getting worse, we need to think — and talk — about how to make things better. To do that, we all need to muster the courage to start conveying what we want — clearly, concisely and sincerely — and to back it up with the political will to take necessary action."
Iran's new president certainly is undertaking a bold approach that is a breath of fresh air when compared to his predecessor. Still, his words must be understood in the broader context of Iran's economic and geopolitical position, which has been greatly impacted by U.S. and EU sanctions.
Iran's economy is, to put it bluntly, a hot mess. Before crippling American and EU sanctions came into effect, Iran's oil industry was exporting approximately 2.2 million barrels per day (bpd) of oil. Today, that number has been cut in half. This has had a profoundly negative effect on Iran's economy in many ways, including depleting its foreign currency reserves, 80 percent of which have come from oil exports in recent years. Iran's economy last year shrank some 5.4 percent, with sanctions playing a large role. Inflation has reached staggering levels, with unemployment rising dramatically.
U.S. President Barack Obama also has incentive to follow-up on any possible warming of ties—but for very different reasons.
Namely, America is very much now a player in the ongoing nightmare that is the Syrian civil war and Iran could be a possible partner in helping reach some sort of political settlement. Considering the American people's opposition to most forms of active assistance to Syria's opposition, finding a way to end Syria's civil war with help from other interested parties could have its advantages. A major foreign policy achievement could help Obama's sagging poll numbers, and prove to be a rare bright spot amid a looming government shutdown and the ever-present threat of an American default on its debt obligations if a debt ceiling agreement is not reached.
Yet, Rouhani and Obama would need to tackle the main issue that keeps both nations at odds with each other: Iran's budding nuclear program.
Rouhani almost certainly believes Tehran's nuclear program is a national right. In his Washington Post op-ed he explained that, "a constructive approach to diplomacy doesn't mean relinquishing one's rights," a clear reference to Iran's nuclear program. Could Obama, in today's poisonous political climate, reach an agreement with Iran that allows it to keep parts of its nuclear program without being accused of betraying allies in the region? Does Rouhani have Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's blessing for such an agreement? Certainly the devil would be in the details—and both sides would be required to sell these details to their respective domestic political environments.
Still, while many of my friends on the right would disagree with me, it would be foolish not to explore such an opening.
It seems highly unlikely that Rouhani would have made the foray into "op-ed diplomacy" without the blessing of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the real power in Iran. Khamenei's own recent speeches reinforce this impression. Indeed, America should carefully embrace any initiative that seeks to forge stronger relations with an adversary that could ultimately make the world a safer place.
But nations act in their own interest, and Iran will certainly have its own motivations for seeking a deal, whether they are to get the sanctions removed or to try some sort of ruse to buy time to develop a nuclear weapon.
So my advice to Obama: There is nothing wrong with shaking hands or glossy photo-ops at the UN come Tuesday. But begin negotiations quickly. Test Iran's willingness to compromise. Insist on complete transparency. Demand that nuclear inspectors have unfettered access to any and all suspected sites. If negotiations are met with delay, stalling or unrealistic demands, then the world has its answer. But if Iran is serious, and has changed its calculus, then America has a responsibility to see this through. Although Ronald Reagan's phrase has been overused in recent weeks, trust but verify seems to be the proper tactic when it comes to Iran's recent overtures.
The next few weeks will be key if a compromise is possible—with better relations to follow. My gut tells me this is just a slick Iranian negotiating strategy, but I hope I am wrong and the only way to know for sure is to try.

BkiUbUw5qoaAwj4XM7Ir | What is the Size of a Measuring Cup?
A measuring cup is a kitchen gadget that helps in measuring ingredients – both liquid and dry – accurately, according to cooking requirements.
The cups are usually made of plastic materials but you may also find measuring cups of glass and metal materials.
Measuring cups come in different sizes, based on the amount of liquid or dry ingredients that they can hold.
Usually, the cups have scale measurements printed on their surfaces to help you determine the exact amount that you need.
"What is the size of a measuring cup?" therefore is best answered by saying that it depends on the maximum amount of ingredients and whether or not the cups are for dry or liquid ingredients.
"What is the size of a measuring cup?" for liquid measurements may be answered with; it usually starts at two hundred and fifty milliliters and goes all the way up to one thousand milliliters.
Roughly, four cups is equivalent to 1000 milliliters or about two pints and also around a quart.
In the United States, measurements may also come in fractions of one liter or fluid ounces. Therefore, you may also answer the question, "What is the size of a measuring cup?" with: one-fourth, one-third, one-half and three-fourths.
For dry ingredients, graduated cups are used to measure the volume. "What is the size of a measuring cup?" for dry ingredients is typically indicated as one-fourth cup, one-third, one-half cup, one-cup and two-cup sizes.
In the event that a recipe calls for ingredients measured in cups and you don't have any at the present time, you can use teaspoons or tablespoons to measure the ingredients as well.
Below is a rough estimation of the equivalent cup measurements in tablespoons.
If you wish to know other equivalent measurements, you can find an online conversion calculator that you can use for free.
This can help you determine measurements in cups, teaspoons, tablespoons as well as conversions for pint sizes, liters, grams and fluid ounces.

BkiUdwk4uzki06kEiH_2 | These soft and versatile vests are the perfect addition to a fall or winter outfit. Hand-knitted from 100% baby alpaca, they are so soft and cozy kids will love to layer them over dresses, sweaters or shirts. Designed for comfort, our vests will add that extra layer of warmth so your child can play outside when the weather turns cooler. Our unique twist on a classic design makes them truly one-of-kind. Available in a vibrant rainbow of gorgeous colours, you're sure to find one that will suit your child's individual taste.
Alpaca is the perfect wool for children: hypoallergenic and smooth against delicate skin, it also features some water-resistant and stain-resistant properties. To wash your hand-knitted baby alpaca clothing, soak in cold water with a mild detergent. Be careful not to wring or twist, or the garment will become misshapen. Rinse well and roll between two towels to get out the excess moisture. Lay flat on a clean, dry towel to dry.
Children are precious to Miou. Our fashionable, hand-knitted clothing is designed to keep kids warm and comfortable, but we also make sure to only use products that will not cause them or the environment any harm. All our items are made from eco-friendly baby alpaca wool or organic cotton, and our dyes are earth-friendly as well.
We also care about the children of our knitters. We pay a fair wage to our team of skilled artisans in Peru, which allows them to support their own families. Working for Miou means they can work from home so they can care for their own children. Knitters in Peru practice an ancient tradition of passing down their knowledge from generation to generation from mother to daughter, which makes the future a little bit brighter for many of these girls raised in poverty. | c4 | 5 | 1 | 5 | 1 |
BkiUbU7xaJiQoRGw4vUB | Aesthetica Magazine interviews Maroesjka Lavigne
Interview with Maroesjka Lavinge, Land of Nothingness, Robert Mann Gallery
Aesthetica Magazine | March 8, 2016
Photographer Maroesjka Lavigne's latest exhibition Land of Nothingness is currently on view at Robert Mann Gallery, New York. This new show, Lavigne's second presentation with the gallery, invites viewers to step into the unforgiving landscape of Namibia – a country of deserts with barren stretches that yield only to subtle variations of the same aridness. From this desolation, Lavigne composes a visual symphony, where animals and the very landscape in which she finds herself appear to respond to her camera lens.
Longlisted for the Aesthetica Art Prize in 2015 and previously featured in Aesthetica, Lavigne's work has been shown internationally in Japan, Italy, and Belgium. Last year, she was awarded the Harry Pennings Award with her series, Not Seeing is a Flower, and she has also won a LensCulture New & Emerging Photographers Grand Prize. Previous projects have taken the artist to Iceland, where Lavigne captured the blue and fading lights of wintertime. We showcased Blue Lagoon in the Aesthetica Art Prize 2015 anthology.
A: What was it that drew you to Namibia for your work Land of Nothingness?
ML: I wanted to travel to a place where nature was still in charge. Following my journey to Iceland a few years ago, I started to miss this feeling of travelling through such a dominant landscape. Namibia is a place where you see more animals than humans and I think that's great to experience.
A: Your images illuminate a sense of calm and tranquillity. Does this translate the sentiments you felt as an artist working in south west Africa?
ML: I think that's definitely a result of nature still having the upper-hand here. Life goes at a much more natural pace. The distances we had to travel were so long you got into some sort of very slow state of mind. Not hurried, and with no stress. There was nowhere to rush to. The travel itself was the experience.
A: How does it feel to have your work represented and exhibited at the Robert Mann Gallery?
ML: It feels great of course. I actually still have to thank Aesthetica. Robert told me he saw my pictures in your magazine! So thank you! I'm very thankful to be represented by them, as I would never have been able to get this audience without them. It's great to get a range of exposure so different kinds of people discover your work.
A: In which ways does this work connect with other projects and pieces, such as Blue Lagoon?
ML: As I said, I had the same state of mind in Iceland as in Namibia, and I think you can feel this through the pictures. There's a sense of wanderlust and tranquillity in these projects because of the overwhelming nature in these places.

BkiUc3U4uBhhxQOlnHq9 | Advantages: The definitive work to date on the Bachem Natter; excellent coverage of Natter concept, development, testing and operation; readable and interesting text; high quality artwork; attractive layout.
Classic Publications has established an enviable reputation as the creator of authoritative reference books on Luftwaffe subjects. The latest in the premier Air War Classics series is "Projekt Natter - Last of the Wonder Weapons", by Brett Gooden.
You might not need to be a rocket scientist to read this book, but it is certainly helpful if you are writing it. The author has been active in the field of human rocket flight since the early 1960s and is a prominent researcher into the physiological effects of aerospace and diving, so he is extensively qualified to tackle this subject matter.
"Projekt Natter" is presented in a hard cover behind the familiar Classic Publications grey dust jacket.
The Bachem Natter was a desperate response to relentless bombing of German cities and industry. The concept was to place a vertical take-off rocket powered interceptor at strategic industrial sites as an immediate defensive measure - something like a cross between a heavy flak gun and a fighter aircraft.
The operational machines were fitted with an auto-pilot to guide the aircraft to attack altitude, at which stage the pilot would take over for his brief attack before plotting a ramming course, jettisoning the rocket unit and gracefully returning to earth by parachute. Any volunteers?
This book covers the the concept, design, testing, operation, medical aspects and post-war implications of this radical and dangerous (more so to the pilot than the intended target) machine.
The layout of the book is punctuated with 170 photos, technical drawings, maps and tables, ensuring that the reading is never laborious. The colour artworks by Gino Marcomini are very attractive too.
The author's text is logically laid out, comprehensive and informative, while remaining admirably readable considering the highly technical nature of much of the subject matter.
Little has been published to date on the Bachem Natter. Brett Gooden's work is undoubtedly now the definitive work on the subject, and will be fascinating to Luftwaffe aficionados and aerospace enthusiasts alike. | c4 | 5 | 3 | 5 | 1 |
BkiUfGQ4uzliDJh6RGTW | Konrad Kyeser (26 August 1366 – after 1405) was a German military engineer and the author of Bellifortis (c. 1405), a book on military technology that was popular throughout the 15th century. Originally conceived for King Wenceslaus, Kyeser dedicated the finished work to Rupert of Germany.
A native of Eichstätt, Kyeser was trained as a physician and lived at the court in Padua before he joined the crusade against the Turks which ended in disaster at the Battle of Nicopolis in 1396. Kyeser lived in exile in a mountain village in Bohemia during the reign of Sigismund in 1402 to 1403.
Bellifortis
During his time in exile, Kyeser began to write his book on the military arts. The book is the most prominent illustrated treatise on military engineering of the Late Middle Ages. There are at least twelve surviving 15th-century manuscripts which copy, excerpt, or amplify the work. One of these is the Thott Fechtbuch of Hans Talhoffer (1459).
The book is divided into ten chapters, though there are also issues with the full content divided into 7 chapters. The topics of the chapters include cars, siege engines, hydraulic engines, elevators, firearms, defensive arms, "wondrous secrets", fireworks for warfare, fireworks for pleasure, and auxiliary tools.
The diving suit presented in the book has precedents reaching back to the 12th century and to Roger Bacon. The book also has the earliest known depiction of a chastity belt. Kyeser counts the artes magicae among the mechanical arts, and his work contains various applications of magic in warfare.
Editions
The original codex is kept in the Göttingen University library (Cod. Ms. philos. 63). Other editions include the following:
Götz Quarg (ed.), facsimile of the Göttinger MS Philos. 63, VDI-Verlag, Düsseldorf (1967)
Udo Friedrich (introduction), Fidel Rädle (trans.), Bellifortis, Codices figurati - libri picturati, Lengenfelder, Munich (1995), . (facsimile of Cod. Ms. philos. 64 und 64a Cim.)
electronic edition (CD ROM), facsimile of Cod. Pal. lat. 1994, Palatina manuscripts of the 12th-15th centuries, Belser, Wildberg (2001)
In popular culture
Kyeser appears as an NPC in the 2018 video game Kingdom Come: Deliverance, and is voiced by Brian Blessed.

BkiUd5Q5qoTBFq8c9U0L | 60 Works builds devices for making and performing music. We specialize in custom and boutique MIDI controllers. More information here.
We are three things: a website, a workshop and expertise.
The website: you're looking at it. 'nuff said.
The workshop: a cozy space equipped for prototyping, testing and manufacture of small controller runs. We're based in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
The expertise: access to the mind of Dave Cross, the egomaniac behind 1 & 2. More about him here.
Controller design and manufacture. We understand what it takes to build a good-looking controller from scratch.
Music Software. No matter what software you use, there's a very good chance we are at least familiar with (if not experts at) it.
Computer Hardware. We read all those dorky magazines and tech blogs. We are certified computer hardware technicians. We know what's coming down the pipeline with that all-important device that plays your music.
Zayik and 60 Works have graced the pages of Computer Music Magazine and Mixmag, respectively.
(Abridged Version, for more details please see this article.) If you become a client, the result of your experience will be a controller. But the controller is only the end of an intense process of discovering, then building, a device that completely and comprehensively meets your musical needs. We're offering the freedom to stop compromising when it comes to quality, and the comfort of working with someone who has already made the mistakes a first-time controller builder will inevitably make.
Put simply, we are governed by service, not by price or inventory. | c4 | 5 | 2 | 4 | 1 |

BkiUaPLxK6wB9lIs6LMB | Q: How to search an array that is an object I am a little confused about the array_search function (or maybe I am trying to use the incorrect thing.) I have a bunch of transaction objects, (transactions about a customer) each is an array of values. After passing in an email address, I get an object that is one transaction where that email address was used. Example is below. I get it from the command print_r($results):
stdClass Object
(
[OverallStatus] => OK
[RequestID] => 4564564654-65465464565-4654654
[Results] => Array
(
[0] => stdClass Object
(
[thing1] =>
[thing2] =>
[Status] => Active
[ID] => 5555555555
[email_addy] => someaddy@something.com
)
[1] => stdClass Object
(
[thing1] =>
[thing2] =>
[Status] => Active
[ID] => 6666666666
[email_addy] => someaddy@something.com
)
[2] => stdClass Object
(
[thing1] =>
[thing2] =>
[Status] => Active
[ID] => 6666666666
[email_addy] => someaddy@something.com
)
)
)
I get this output with no trouble at all. My issue is that I need to identify when someone has a specific ID. I was trying to use a foreach but I am not getting back what I need. The code and output is below.
foreach ($results as $key => $value) {
echo "Key: $key; Value: $value<br />\n";
}
Output is
Key: OverallStatus; Value: OK
Key: RequestID; Value: 4564564654-65465464565-4654654
Key: Results; Value: Array
All I really need to know is if the customer has an ID of 5555555555. This number will always stay the same. Am I going in the wrong direction here?
A: You have array of object , so you should get first the array results , and then iterate over it,try this :
foreach ($results->Results as $key => $value) {
if($value->ID == 55555555) echo 'found at position'.$key;//if id is unique , add a break;
}
A: You need to iterate through $results->Results.
foreach ($results->Results as $key => $value) {
if($value->ID == 5555555555)
print "Match found";
}
A: You should loop again for results array. Try following foreach
foreach ($results as $key => $value) {
if($key == "Results") {
foreach($value as $v) {
if($v->ID == "5555555555") {
echo "I found you";
break;
}
}
} else {
echo "Key: $key; Value: $value<br />\n";
}
}
A: Loop through '$results->Results' and check in loop if the ID=5555555555 like this:
foreach ($results->Results as $value) {
if($value->ID == 5555555555) {
//do something
}
}
A: It would be something like the following:
$transactions = $results->Results; //get results array
foreach ($transactions as $transaction) { // loop through each transaction object.
echo $transaction->ID . '<br />'; // print out the id of each transaction.
}

Without a doubt this must rank among the best female fronted CD´s of all time. If you like LAOS, WITNESS, ALYSON AVENUE, etc. you must have this too. Still remember Richard Blundell giving this a 9/10 rating in Frontiers Magazine many many years ago and to quote him exactly...."please buy this before it becomes a forgotten classic and help them on their way to deserved superstardom" (hope I have spelled it right.....). Indeed, he was so right, a masterpiece. Good luck finding it!!!!

Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar (2008)

India Today Cover Story Story
S.S. BHATNAGAR — SCIENTIST, 1894-1955
During the Second World War, in view of the snapping of communication lines, the colonial rulers asked the Indian government to take up the task of "supplying the technical equipment of a modern army".
The government decided to conduct research under its own auspices, and more importantly, to fund scientific and industrial research in centres outside its system.
History chose the hour and the hour produced the hero. Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar, then a professor at Punjab University, Lahore, was appointed the director of scientific and industrial research in 1940.
The same year an advisory board of scientific and industrial research was set up to receive and appraise research proposals from universities, industry and trade.
On March 12, 1942, the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research was established, which was later transformed into a vehicle for industrial development by prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru.
The old timers would recall with a chuckle how Bhatnagar would meet Nehru during the latter's morning walk, get approval for a new laboratory and have the paper work ready by the time office opened.
S.S. Bhatnagar
Bhatnagar held a number of important posts. He was secretary to the government in the ministry of natural resources and scientific research, secretary of atomic energy research and chairman of the University Grants Commission.
He was a bridge between two cultures and two eras. He was a chemist as also the author of the ceremonial Sanskrit hymn of the Banaras Hindu University.
He was proud of the honours bestowed upon him by the British government while, as a government servant, he had the courage to publicly touch the feet of the Congress president in 1942.
If science was his passion, Urdu poetry was his refuge.
Q: Bhatnagar was an avid writer. What did he write?
A: Urdu poetry
Q: What was his reaction when he learnt about plagiarism by a fellow professor in BHU?
A: He leapt on him and gave him a good drubbing
Q: Who called his association with Jawaharlal Nehru the "Nehru-Bhatnagar Effect"?
A: Sir C.V. Raman
He was greatly influenced by the Brahmo Samaj in his formative years.He was very attached to his wife, Lajwanti. A romantic at heart, he nursed the hope that he would take to farming after retirement and his wife would bring him lunch and a pot of butter milk in the fields.

BkiUbXfxK7Tt522WYpv8 | I should have made more! After our trial run with the Freshfoods Cook-n-Blend Baby Food Maker by NUK, we love it! My kids devoured it, almost before I grabbed a picture!
I tried to make a lot of S's baby food from scratch, using organic ingredients, but it was a CHORE using my old blender. It took a lot of steps since I had to cook it all till it was soft enough, fill the blender, empty the blender since I'd filled it too much and it wouldn't puree, mash all the food down while trying not to spread it all over the kitchen, fill it again, and repeat almost indefinitely.
We had none of those issues with this baby food maker!
I decided to make applesauce, since that's expensive to buy organic in the stores, and has previously been rather a pain to make at home. Peeling and chopping the apples was the greatest time investment on my part, but since my little girl spits out the peel (wherever she might be at the time btw), I normally peel them anyway. I peeled and chopped 3 small organic Fuji apples, since that's what I had on hand, deposited them into the Freshfoods Cook-n-Blend Baby Food Maker, filled the water reservoir, and hit the start button. 17 minutes later, I had soft, steamed apples!
After letting the apples cool for a couple of minutes, I opened up the container and dumped the steamed apples onto the blade below. I then pureed them for under 10 seconds, and I had applesauce!
2. Organic ingredients. I can avoid pesticides and GMO's, plus I can make a lot more food for a fraction of the cost of buying pre-packaged food.
3. Fresh! I want the food to be as fresh as possible. Doesn't get any fresher than made at home!
I never made meat baby food at home with my first two kiddos, but I'm looking forward to trying it, now that I'm armed with a good tool! The recipe book included several simple, yummy-sounding meat meals like Salmon with Carrots & Tomato, My First Fish Puree, Chicken with Sweet Potato and Apple, and more!
NUK is currently offering a $20 off coupon for a Freshfoods Cook-n-Blend Baby Food Maker for Renaissance Mama readers, and a $1 coupon for any accessories! They offer a handy freezer tray, Mash & Serve Bowl, Food Mill, Stackable Cubes, and Fill & Freeze Pops.

BkiUdxg4eIZjyluABQG8 | JSI Tip 4882. How do I set up a Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) virtual server on a Windows 2000-based computer?
This step-by-step article describes how to set up a Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) virtual server on a Windows 2000-based computer.
Microsoft SMTP Service uses the Internet-standard SMTP to transport and deliver mail messages. Microsoft SMTP Service does not support the use of individual mailboxes; it places incoming messages in a Drop folder or it forwards them to other SMTP servers (if the message is addressed to a remote domain). This feature allows Microsoft SMTP Service to be used as a mail receiver for other programs. | c4 | 5 | 3 | 5 | 2 |

BkiUeQrxaJiQn7ar4lNd | An employee appeals board has ordered the Department of Veterans Affairs to reinstate a fired medical center director found to have ignored patient abuse, though the board upheld the charges against her.
The decision by Judge Arthur S. Joseph of the Merit Systems Protection Board to reinstate Linda Weiss, former director of the Albany-Stratton VA Medical Center in New York, mirrors two other recent reversals in cases involving regional directors and pits the VA and the board in an increasingly bitter battle for control of employee discipline.
VA Deputy Secretary Sloan Gibson vowed to ignore the order to restore Weiss to her director's job and to award her back pay.
"We believe today's untimely decision is unenforceable under the law, and does not entitle Ms. Weiss to return to VA employment," he said in a statement.
Weiss, who retired while the case was pending, could not be reached for comment Wednesday.
Joseph's order comes more than a week after the board issued a statement that the VA's discipline had been reversed. The statement did not provide an explanation or instructions.
Gibson criticized the lag time between the judge's order and the board's statement, contending it violated the Veterans Access, Choice and Accountability Act, which requires VA executive appeals to be expedited within 21 days.
Rep. Jeff Miller, R-Florida, chairman of the House Committee on Veterans Affairs, blasted the board's decision and called for sweeping reform of the federal employee disciplinary system.
"No business in the world could operate efficiently and effectively if many of its major personnel decisions were subject to approval by an unaccountable board with a strong bias against accountability," he said in a statement. "Yet that's what we have with the MSPB -- and it's setting the entire federal government up for failure."
The multiple disciplinary setbacks led VA Secretary Bob McDonald to endorse Gibson's idea to make the department's executives at-will employees, meaning they would lose the ability to appeal punishments to the MSPB, though it could mean higher salaries.
In its case against Weiss, the VA said she was aware of a nursing assistant abusing patients but failed to remove the employee from patient care in a timely manner. Joseph sustained the VA's charge of failure to take timely action but found removal to be an unreasonable penalty.
Joseph also criticized Gibson for not considering any mitigating factors, such as Weiss' 42 years of service to the VA prior to her offense or evidence that the threat to patient safety might have been less severe than originally reported. In his ruling, he also noted no one else was disciplined in the matter, despite the apparent involvement of other, lower-ranking employees.
"The record fails to establish that the deciding official considered any of the previously discussed mitigating matters, including the fact that the offense was not as serious as the agency has argued," the judge wrote in his ruling.
In January, MSPB judges also overturned demotions for the directors of the Philadelphia and St. Paul, Minnesota, VA regional offices, despite largely upholding the VA's findings of wrongdoing. In those cases, as with Weiss, judges noted the Veterans Access, Choice and Accountability Act only allows them to rule on whether a punishment is appropriate, as opposed to allowing them to offer a lesser penalty.
"If (the act) did not prohibit it, I would mitigate the penalty," Joseph wrote in his Weiss ruling. "However, because that is not allowed, the only option is to reverse the action outright." | c4 | 5 | 3 | 5 | 4 |
BkiUe0PxK7kjXIdHAJi3 | Government Asserts It Is Above the Law
By Kurt Opsahl
Share It Share on Twitter Share on Facebook Copy link
Late last night, the Government filed its reply brief, providing a last round of written briefing in advance of next week's hearing in our case against AT&T for collaborating with the Government's surveillance program. Finally the Administration has come out and flatly said what it has hinted at throughout its arguments: that the Program is above the law. The Government wrote that
the court—even if it were to find unlawfulness upon in camera, ex parte review—could not then proceed to adjudicate the very question of awarding damages because to do so would confirm Plaintiffs' allegations. (emphasis added)
Essentially the Government is saying that, even if the Judiciary found the wholesale surveillance program was illegal after reviewing secret evidence in chambers, the Court nevertheless would be powerless to proceed, because the Executive has asserted that the Program, which has been widely reported in every major news outlet, is nevertheless still such a secret that the Judiciary (a co-equal branch under the Constitution) cannot acknowledge its existence by ruling against it. In short, the Government asserts that AT&T and the Executive can break the laws crafted by Congress, and there is nothing the Judiciary can do about it.
We intend to vigorously oppose this radical assertion of power. Please consider donating to EFF and help stop the illegal spying.

Malaysia:The Problem of having a Prime Minister-in-Waiting
The Mark of a Strong Leader
Category Archives: Press Statement
The United Nations Association of Malaysia(UNAM) fully endorses and supports the statement issued on February 25th by the Chairman of SUHAKAM, Tan Sri Razali Ismail on the uncalled for, intemperate and controversial statement by YB Dato Sri Nazri AbdulB Dato Sri Nazri Abdul Aziz, Secretary General of Barisan Nasional.
February 27, 2019 by dinobeano
The United Nations Association of Malaysia(UNAM) fully endorses and supports the statement issued on February 25th by the Chairman of SUHAKAM, Tan Sri Razali Ismail on the uncalled for, intemperate and controversial statement by YB Dato' Sri Nazri had insinuated that the current incumbents in the positions of the Honourable Chief Justice, the Attorney General and the Minister of Finance in Malaysia were inappropriate persons to hold these offices on account of their ethnic or religious affinity. It has also been reported that there was some adverse reference by Dato Sri Nazri to vernacular schools which have been operating in the country for more than a century.
It is UNAM's position that it is downright dishonest and disappointing to suggest that particular individuals are unsuited to hold certain positions of authority on account of their ethnic or religious affinity. This goes against the grain of the carefully crafted policy of the Malaysian Government since the early 1970s to work towards the elimination of the identification of race with certain occupations.
UNAM appreciates the efforts by successive Prime Ministers of Malaysia to manage the administration of inter-ethnic and inter religious relations in a rather complex situation in a carefully planned and sensitive way. This issue is largely the legacy of a protracted Divide-and-Rule policy and practice of a colonial power and is partly conditioned by the need for national unity and harmony.
Malaysia's rich diversity and dynamism is remarkable. It is a source of strength for our country and has safeguarded the peace, harmony and growth aspirations of the people.
The President of UNAM YM Tengku Ahmad Rithauddeen wishes to draw attention to Goal 16 of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals in particular which clearly stipulates, inter alia, that Malaysia as a staunch supporter of the UN system is obliged to "promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, provide access to justice for all and build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels."
It is the responsibility of all Malaysians to safeguard the peace and harmony in our nation.

Congratulations to the People of Thailand

http://www.freemalaysiatoday.com
Crown Prince Vajiralongkorn becomes Rama X of Thailand's Chakri Dynasty, but will not formally be crowned until after his father's cremation, which is expected next year.
Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn became the King of Thailand late Thursday, opening a new chapter for the powerful monarchy in a country still mourning the death of his father.
The 64-year-old Prince inherits one of the world's richest monarchies as well as a politically febrile nation, 50 days after King Bhumibol Adulyadej's death.
After weeks of complex palace protocols the Prince was invited by the head of the National Legislative Assembly (NLA) to ascend the throne in an event broadcast on all Thai television channels.
"I agree to accept the wishes of the late King… for the benefit of the entire Thai people," said Vajiralongkorn, wearing an official white tunic decorated with medals and a pink sash.
The sombre, ritual-heavy ceremony at his Bangkok palace was attended by the Chief of the NLA, junta leader Prayut Chan-O-Cha, and the powerful 96-year-old head of the privy council, Prem Tinsulanonda.
Red-jacketed courtiers looked on as a palace staff member, shuffling on his knees, presented the new King with a microphone through which he delivered his few words of acceptance.
His Majesty King Vajiralongkorn then prostrated himself, hands pressed together in respect, to a small shrine topped by a picture of his father and mother —Her Majesty Queen Sirikit Kitiyakara.
He becomes Rama X of Thailand's Chakri dynasty, but will not formally be crowned until after his father's cremation, which is expected next year.
Bhumibol's reign, which ended on October 13, spanned a tumultuous period of Thai history pockmarked by a communist insurgency, coups and street protests.
It also saw breakneck development which has resulted in a huge wealth disparity between a Bangkok-centric elite and the rural poor.To many Thais, Bhumibol was the only consistent force in a politically combustible country, his image burnished by ritual and shielded by a harsh royal defamation law.
The United States offered its congratulations to the new King, saying it looked forward to strengthening ties with Thailand. "We offer our best wishes to his majesty and all of the Thai people," the State Department said.
"His father, King Bhumibol, ruled the Kingdom of Thailand with vision and compassion for 70 years and was a great friend of the United States. The United States and Thailand enjoy a longstanding, strong, and multifaceted bilateral relationship, and we look forward to deepening that relationship and strengthening the bonds between our two countries and peoples going forward."
Into the limelight
Monks chanted blessings at Buddhist temples to mark the new monarch's ascension — an era-defining moment for most Thais who for seven decades knew only Bhumibol as their King.
His Majesty Vajiralongkorn does not yet enjoy the same level of popularity.He spends much of his time outside of the public eye, particularly in southern Germany where he owns property.
He has had three high-profile divorces, while a recent police corruption scandal linked to the family of his previous wife allowed the public a rare glimpse of palace affairs.
Thursday's ascension ends a period of uncertainty since Bhumibol's death prompted by the Prince's request to delay his official proclamation so he could mourn with the Thai people.
Thailand's constitutional monarchy has limited formal powers but it draws the loyalty of much of the kingdom's business elite as well as a military that dominates politics through its regular coups.
Analysts say His Majesty King Vajiralongkorn, untested until now, will have to manage competing military cliques.
In a brief televised address after the ceremony, Prime Minister Prayut Chan-O-Cha, who as army chief led the 2014 coup, praised the new King "as the head of the Thai state and heart of the Thai people."
The Thai monarchy is protected from criticism by one of the world's strictest lese majeste laws, carrying up to 15 years in jail for every charge of defaming the King, Queen, heir or regent.
That law makes open discussion about the Royal Family's role all but impossible inside the Kingdom and means all media based inside the country routinely self-censor. Convictions for so-called "112" offences — named after its criminal code — have skyrocketed since the Generals seized power in 2014.
Experts say most have targeted the junta's political opponents, many of whom support the toppled civilian government of Yingluck Shinawatra.
The emergence of Yingluck's brother Thaksin in 2001, a vote-winning billionaire seen by many of the rural poor as their champion, prompted the recent round of political conflict. The army and royalist establishment have toppled two governments led by the siblings, accusing them of nepotism and corruption.

COMMENT: It doesn't matter that the politicians don't represent us. We can make ourselves heard.
National debater turned political activist for the youth, Syed Saddiq Abdul Rahman (above) is on a mission. It's the same mission youth organisers all over the world have given themselves. They want to galvanise youth sentiment into political capital. They want to reach out to the most informed and most judgemental generation in history and make them care about politics because the political process has shut out their voice and fed them bread and circuses to keep them docile.
We often forget that the "battle for the next generation" has come and passed without our politicos realising it. The tail end of Generation Y will be of voting age soon and have already formed concrete opinions about the government and the various political parties, thanks to the availability of information and the ease of access that the smartphone era has brought us.
It is quite amazing how youth values across Generation Y are largely shared across the board – a concern for the environment, a mistrust of government and big banks, a need to secure our mutual futures, and a general acceptance of different cultures. Analysts worldwide theorise that this set of values was determined by the epoch Gen Y grew up in, which was one of terrorist attacks and economic collapses.
Yet, Gen Y shows a great need to come together. What Syed is attempting to do in taking a youth group like Challenger to the fore is to bring back youth activism and youth politics, and the timing is good indeed. He recognises that it's time that young people be given their own voice in the political arena instead of through the youth wing of any established political party.
A survey that Challenger conducted recently struck us with it's findings. It turns out that we are fighting for the same things that the youth of America, Greece and the United Kingdom are fighting for – jobs and living wages, an end to the corruption of our governments and corporations and the preservation of our environment.
Whatever you may think of Syed, he deserves our praise for daring to be our voice. They should inspire us to speak up too. We must realize that there are now more of us millennials in the workplace than there are of our parents' generation. We are the majority, and it's time to care.

Join Rally to Stop TPPA–End Wall Street Rule
January 14, 2016 by dinobeano

PSM Secretary General
Mobile: 010 2580 455
Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM) will take to the streets on January 23, 2016 at Dataran Merdeka, Kuala Lumpur, 2 p.m to oppose the Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement. We urge the rakyat to join us in this final and most important rally to stop the TPPA.
Parti Sosialis Malaysia has been fighting against the US led Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement since Malaysia's participation in 2010. Even since 2005, we have voiced our concerns to the then trade Minister Tan Sri Rafidah Aziz when US lured Malaysia into negotiating the US Malaysia Free Trade Bilateral Agreement.
The aspirations of the US Multinationals and investors are still prevalent in the TPPA, as they rush to secure their economic interest by side lining growing China's influence in the region. It is clear how the TPPA will trample upon our rights for affordable medicines, job security, food security, affordable education etc,.
PSM is puzzled by the Najib led government persistence to ink the deal despite various studies and findings by scholars, economist debunking the so-called benefits of the TPPA. Recently Professor Dr Jomo Kwame Sundaram revealed that TPPA will only lead to unemployment, inequality instead of real economic gains for Malaysia.
For the past two months PSM has been on a road show throughout the country educating the rakyat on the implications of the TPPA. From the road show we gather that the people are not convinced of the benefits of the TPPA, being already burdened by the rising cost of living and GST and rampant corruption and abuses of power.
Thus we urge the rakyat to come out in force on January 23, to express our opposition to the TPPA. This will be the deciding rally to make our voices heard to Najib Tun Razak that he is now making another big mistake in his leadership .
PSM will fully mobilise our forces to make this peaceful protest rally a success. The gathering will take place at Dataran Merdeka and PSM will lead a march from Maju Junction on that day at 1 pm. We welcome all grassroot organisations, unions and NGO's to join us. Stop TPPA ! End Corporate Rule !

Malaysia's Foreign Minister Anifah Aman's Open Letter to the NY Times
June 19, 2015 by dinobeano
Malaysia's Foreign Minister Anifah Aman's Open Letter to the NY Times Editor
COMMENT: Thomas Fuller's article and interview with Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad which appeared in the New York Times ( June 17, 2015) have received a response from Malaysia's Foreign Minister Dato' Sri Anifah Aman.
It is a reasonable reaction. Minister Aman is expressing concern about the effects of the article and Dr. Mahathir's interview on Malaysia's image and Prime Minister's reputation at home and abroad. As usual, our government's response has come a little too late.
Furthermore, the Foreign Minister's Open letter has not added any new material to what is already in the public domain. He merely rehashed them and attacked the former Prime Minister for raising valid issues about the 1MDB scandal.
Damage done to the Prime Minister in the eyes of Malaysians at home and the international community except for his loyal friend, US President Barack Obama, is irreversible. 1MDB scandal has gone out of control because the Prime Minister and his Cabinet, its Chairman Lodin Wok Kamaruddin and Directors, and its Chief Executive Officer Arul Kanda Kandasamy failed to respond clearly and honestly when the matter came to light.
In stead, the Malaysian public were given a merry-go-round with misleading and contradictory answers about the financial affairs of this sovereign fund. In their arrogance, they assume that we can accept their version as the gospel truth and that we are timid and stupid.What happened to the RM42 billion loan remains answered.
Our attention is being diverted to the politics of the Parliamentary Public Accounts Committee headed by MP Nur Jazlan and the Opposition, and the antics and tactics of Mr. Arul and his associates, the Auditor-General, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission and the Inspector-General of Police with occasional interventions by the Prime Minister, his Deputy Prime Minister and senior ministers in his Cabinet.
In order to put Foreign Minister's Open Letter in the right context, please read this:
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/18/world/asia/malaysia-prime-minister-najib-razak-mahathir-mohamad.html
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/18/world/asia/interview-mahathir-mohamad-former-prime-minister-malaysia.html?action=click&contentCollection=Asia%20Pacific&module=RelatedCoverage®ion=Marginalia&pgtype=article
We may disagree with the Tun's approach, but in fairness to our former Prime Minister, he had raised them with the Prime Minister in private meetings but he never received any satisfactory response. Tun Dr. Mahathir is consummate politician, no doubt; but in this matter many Malaysians share his concern about 1MDB's huge debt in the event of a taxpayer or GLC funded bailout or loan default with macro implications on the national economy and our financial and banking system.–Din Merican
The Foreign Minister's Open Letter as reproduced from : http://www.nst.com.my/node/88855
Malaysia's Foreign Minister Dato' Sri Anifah Aman
It is regrettable to see Tun Mahathir seeking to undermine his own country in the international media as part of a personal political vendetta.
It is irresponsible of any citizen, let alone a former Prime Minister, to spread lies and distortions about state owned companies – saying for example that RM42 bn is missing from 1MDB to create public anxiety, when in fact these are audited debts backed by RM51 billion in assets. These reckless claims have affected market sentiment towards Malaysia.
Furthermore, it is telling that he continues to mount his attacks, rather than wait for the findings of the enquiries currently being undertaken by Malaysia's central bank, Auditor General, and parliament's bipartisan Public Accounts Committee. This shows that Tun Mahathir is not interested in answers from the appropriate lawful authorities. Rather, he is just using 1MDB as an excuse to topple the serving prime minister, Najib Tun Razak.
And all because his personal demands, as Tun Mahathir himself has acknowledged, are not being met. Prime Minister Najib, as Malaysia's democratically elected leader, will do what he thinks is right for the nation, and will not allow rule by proxy.
Tun Mahathir told the New York Times that UMNO "lacks vision and talented people", that it "has become a repository of patronage-seeking politicians", and that members "try to keep out people who are more intelligent than themselves". But it is Tun Mahathir who led the party for 22 years.
It was he that, during his time, worked to cultivate 'yes men' and entrench his position – even introducing a quota system for the UMNO presidency to prevent challengers – rather than bringing in talent and strengthening the party. It is Prime Minister Najib who democratised the party constitution to make it far easier to challenge him for his job.
For Tun Mahathir to accuse Prime Minister Najib of acts "verging on criminal" is simply outrageous, and entirely false. It is a measure of the reforms put in place under Prime Minister Najib's administration that Tun Mahathir has the freedom to be so vocally critical of the party and government he once led.
But Tun Mahathir is abusing that freedom, and his privileged standing as a former Prime Minister, to indulge in reckless and baseless personal smears against Prime Minister Najib and his family. Most Malaysians would rather see Tun Mahathir retire gracefully than continue to damage the standing of his own country for personal political gain.

Obama Urges Prime Minister Najib to apply the Rule of Law apolitically
March 13, 2015 by dinobeano
The malaysianinsider.com
http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/malaysia/article/after-anwar-petition-white-house-tells-putrajaya-to-apply-rule-of-law
The White House today expressed its disappointment over Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim's guilty conviction for sodomy, and urged Putrajaya to apply the rule of law to promote confidence in the country's democracy, judiciary and economy.
In a statement following the close of a petition launched by former US Ambassador to Malaysia John Malott to press for Anwar's freedom, the Obama administration said the worry was compounded by the Malaysian government's intention to expand the sedition law against critics, despite Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's promise to repeal it.
The statement said the US had made its concerns on Anwar's conviction clear through statements and interactions with Putrajaya and would continue to do so.
"The initial decision to prosecute Mr. Anwar, the decision to appeal the not guilty verdict, and the overturning of that verdict raise a number of serious concerns about the rule of law and the fairness of the judicial system in Malaysia," the White House statement said.
It added that the two countries were committed to work together on the economy and security challenges, but said Washington would continue to urge Malaysia to apply the rule of law fairly, transparently and apolitically.
"History has shown that countries that uphold the human rights of all their citizens, regardless of their political affiliation, ethnicity, race, religion, or sexual orientation, are ultimately more prosperous and more stable, the White House said.
The petition for Anwar's freedom achieved 113,122 signatures, more than the 100,000 required to qualify a response from the Obama administration.
The Federal Court on February 10 upheld Anwar's sodomy conviction and his five-year jail sentence.
Meanwhile, the US Embassy said yesterday more than 60,000 signatures were removed from a counter-petition to the White House on Anwar because they originated from disposal email services.
From more than 70,000 signatures initially, the petition that took issue with the Washington's stand on Anwar's conviction was reinstated online with around 12,000 signatures.
"The White House did remove 60,789 signatures deemed to be fraudulent because a vast majority of those signatures originated from slipry.net.
"Other fraudulent signatures originated from trashmail, sharklasers, and mallinator – all disposable email services. Those fraudulent signatures occurred over the life of the petition," the embassy added.
The counter petition was started nearly a month ago after the petition in support of Anwar's freedom was launched.
It said Malaysians were "outraged" with the White House's statement expressing disappointment with Anwar's jailing, and told the US to "stop interfering in Malaysia's judiciary and rule of law".
Malott's petition, "Make the release of Malaysian Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim from prison a top priority for US policy towards Malaysia", was also temporarily removed after standard fraud checks by the White House erroneously identified it as a petition with fraudulent signatures.
The embassy clarified on Wednesday that it was not the free Anwar petition but the counter petition which had fraudulent signatures.
The counter petition, titled "Respecting the Sovereign Nation of Malaysia", reached 12,612 signatures as of this morning.

BkiUdys5qX_Bxod3l4T6 | Rotem Amfert phosphates concession seen being extended
6 Dec, 2021 12:25
Guy Lieberman
A NIS 23.6 million payment on account of underpaid royalties paves the way for the Knesset Finance Committee to grant a further three-year concession.
Sources inform "Globes" that Rotem Amfert, of the ICL group (formerly Israel Chemicals), has paid the state NIS 23.6 million on account of royalty differences. The payment paves the way for the approval that the Knesset finance Committee is due to award the company for continuing to mine phosphates on the Rotem Plain in the Negev for a further three years. The extension of the concession was made without a tender.
The company, which directly employs 1,600 people, has been mining phosphates for decades, but in the past few months there has been a question mark over its continued activity, as its concession expires at the end of this year.
In the past, the company said that the amount of minerals left in the area was small, and that mining could therefore not continue beyond the three additional years for which it requested an extension to the concession. This was also the main reason that former minister of energy Yuval Steinitz was inclined to recommend extending the concession for this period without a tender. The process, which was approved by the Government Companies Authority, also requires approval by the Knesset Finance Committee, but the break-up of the previous government halted the process, which was supposed to have been almost automatic.
Last August, Minister of National Infrastructures, Energy and Water Resources Karine Elharrar was informed that the Accountant General's department in the Ministry of Finance had begun a non-routine check on royalties paid by the company. The check led to the minister suspending submission of the recommendation to extend the concession. The upshot is no application to the Knesset Finance Committee for an extension, or, in other words, ending the company's activity.
Because a large employer was involved, the Histadrut (General Federation of Labor in Israel) approached the minister and asked for the process to be expedited. "Within less than four months, without an extension for a further three years, as planned and approved by your predecessor, the plant will be closed and thousands of workers and their families will be left without a livelihood," Histadrut chairperson Arnon Bar-David wrote. "The Histadrut, and I at the head of it, can no longer refrain from intervening for the protection and welfare of thousands of workers." "Globes'" enquiries have found that the minister met Bar-David on the matter recently.
Despite the hundreds of millions of shekels in revenue derived by ICL from phosphates, the royalties collected by the state from Rotem Amfert on phosphates amounted to NIS 8.6 million in 2020 and NIS 10.3 million in 2019. A source familiar with the details said that the reason for this was that most of the revenue in this sector came from the company's activity overseas.
Over the years the company benefitted from a somewhat low royalty rate, which led to it being raised from of 2% per mined tonne to 5% a few years ago. These numbers lay behind the Accountant General's decision to check past payments to the state by the company.
Once the Accountant General's decision became known to the Ministry of National Infrastructures, Energy and Water Resources, it was decided that it would take the enquiry upon itself, in coordination with the Ministry of Finance. The result was a determination that the company should pay NIS 23.6 million on account of royalties owed for the period 2012-2019. No date has yet been set to convene the Knesset Finance Committee to discuss extending the concession. A Ministry of National Infrastructures, Energy and Water Resources source said that the ministry was carrying out "a number of checks". From "Globes'" enquiries, however, it appears that the settlement reached by the sides paves the way to a recommendation by the minister and to an extension of the concession in the near future.
The Ministry of National Infrastructures, Energy and Water Resources said in response, "The ministry's royalties department recently completed a professional, in-depth audit of royalties paid by Rotem Amfert and demanded an additional payment of NIS 23.6 million, which is 47% more than the amount according to the company's position. The company has already made the additional royalty payment as demanded by the ministry. It arises from collection differences following the Sheshinski 2 law. It should also be made clear that a few years ago the royalty rate on phosphates was raised from 2% to 5%, after the Sheshinski 2 committee and subsequent legislation.

Wildfires, Weather Disasters Continue to Wreak Havoc Across Country
in firefighter Safety & Precautions
The United States has suffered from sixty $1 billion-plus weather and climate disasters in the last three years, totaling a loss exceeding $434.6 billion and 1,460 deaths, according to the National Centers for Environmental Information.
Some of the most significant losses have come via hurricanes and tornadoes throughout the Midwest and the southeast, but other types of natural disasters have ravaged the west, including Idaho.
The primary causes of $1 billion climate disasters in western states since 2020 are drought and wildfires.
According to the NCEI, Idaho has been involved in five such disasters: three wildfire-related disasters and two droughts.
Here is a list of the five $1 billion disasters that have affected Idaho in some capacity since 2020:
Fall 2020 – Western wildfires
August 2020 had an average temperature of 74.7 degrees nationwide, ranking as the third-warmest August on record at the time. A summer of below-average rainfall set up the perfect conditions for a busy wildfire season in the west — Colorado saw its largest wildfire on record, while California recorded its 2nd- and 3rd-largest wildfires in state history.
Idaho experienced 933 wildfires statewide in 2020, which burned more than 318,000 acres. Wildfire damage nationwide cost about $16.5 billion and caused 46 deaths; Idaho incurred between $100-250 million in damages, but NCEI does not provide death totals for individual states.
2021 – Western drought and heat dome
An historic Pacific Northwest heat dome characterized the summer of 2021, of which Idaho was very much a part. Boise recorded a high temperature of over 100 degrees 12 times in July 2021; the lowest high temperature was a balmy 91 degrees.
But it wasn't just the extreme heat.
An already ongoing drought was intensified by high temperatures and rapidly dried out vegetation across the west, according to NOAA. By May, about half of Idaho was under drought conditions because a mild winter and warm spring led to a low snowpack, meaning less water in Idaho's reservoirs.
Nationwide, the drought and heat wave resulted in $8.4 billion in damage and caused 229 deaths, while it cost Idahoans up to $100 million in damages. Several Idahoans died in the heat dome, such as a 38-year-old Idaho City woman who suffered a heat stroke while on a hike, and a 78-year-old Caldwell man died in his bed dehydrated.
"This heat dome for the Pacific Northwest, specifically (in) the coastal cities, was just so far different than what has been experienced previously," Katie Lee, associate professor at the Department of Agricultural Economics and Sociology at the University of Idaho, previously told the Statesman. "Their infrastructure wasn't capable of handling this heat."
2021 – Western wildfires
The summer heat wave and severe drought conditions in 2021 also led to another active wildfire season that year.
Idaho's marquee wildfire of the season was the Boundary Fire, which sparked up in mid-August and lasted until late October. The fire merged with the nearby Scarface Fire in mid-September, becoming a single wildfire still called the Boundary Fire. In total, it burned 87,778 acres of mixed conifer, timber, brush and short grass.
Several other large wildfires across the west resulted in $10.4 billion in damages and eight deaths. In Idaho alone, wildfire damages cost $500 million to $1 billion.
Spring to Fall 2022 – Western wildfires
Continued drought conditions led to another busy wildfire season in the west throughout the summer of 2022. Although no Idaho fires were as damaging as the 2021 Boundary Fire, the Moose Fire near Salmon burned more than 130,000 acres of brush and timber, about one-third of the state's total burned acreage in 2022.
Although the Moose Fire was larger than 2021's Boundary Fire, the latter burned down valuable natural and economic resources in the Salmon-Challis National Forest and the Lowman Ranger District of the Boise National Forest.
According to previous Statesman reporting, three firefighters died while fighting the fire: two when their helicopter crashed into the Salmon River and one after suffering a medical emergency.
Other fires in New Mexico, Oregon, Montana, California and Alaska resulted in a total damage cost of $3.1 billion and took 17 lives. Idaho's damage total was in the range of $100-250 million but the total loss of life for the state is not provided in the data.
2022 – Western/Central Drought and Heat wave
Nationwide, the 2022 drought was one of the costliest on record, according to NOAA. It cost $21 billion in damages and led to 136 deaths. According to data provided by NCEI, Idaho was somewhere between $100-250 million of that total; NCEI does not provide a more precise figure.
The summer of 2022 was the second-hottest on record for Boise, surpassed only by the summer of 2021. Throughout the summer months, Boise hit the triple-digit mark on 23 occasions and, including September, pushed that total up to 27 days. It's a total that blows the previous record of 20 days in a calendar year, set in 2003, out of the water.
A low snowpack led to an incredibly tight water year, resulting in the Idaho Department of Water Resources issuing an emergency drought declaration for 34 of the state's 44 counties.
Keeping safe in the heat
While such hot temperatures provide the perfect excuse to get outside and enjoy summer activities, heat exhaustion and heat stroke are serious dangers for children and people over 65.
Heat stroke kicks in when the body cannot control its temperature and its sweating mechanism fails, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, resulting in body temperature rising as high as 106 degrees within 10 to 15 minutes.
"People should be mindful to always have a place to cool off," Les Colin, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Boise, told the Statesman.
"Make sure if you go out or travel, have something to drink," Colin continued. "Make sure you keep your animals well-watered and generally inside, out of the sun — basically, normal, common sense measures to not allow yourself to be overcome by the heat."
The The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has tips on how to avoid heat exhaustion and stroke and what the next step should be to alleviate the issue.
Heat exhaustion
Heavy sweating
What to do: Move to a cooler area, loosen clothing and sip on cool water. Seek medical help if the symptoms don't improve because heat exhaustion can lead to heat stroke.
Becoming unconscious
What to do: Move the person to a cooler area, loosen clothing, remove any extra layers, and cool with water or ice.
