Lectrosonics Announces a Milestone Retirement along with Two Company Promotions
President Larry Fisher Retires, Gordon Moore Promoted to President and Karl Winkler Promoted to Vice President, Sales/Service
MSMedia ⋅ May 27, 2015
Rio Rancho, NM (May 27, 2015) — Lectrosonics, Inc., the well-respected manufacturer of wireless microphone systems and audio processing products for the film, broadcast, theater, music and installed sound markets, announces the retirement of longtime company president Larry Fisher, as well as the promotions of Gordon Moore to President and Karl Winkler to Vice President Sales/Service, effective June 1, 2015.
Retiring president Larry Fisher, who has been with the company for 43 years, will remain active with Lectrosonics as Chairman of the Board of Directors, and will continue his presence on industry-related social media sites where he has become known as a valuable contributor. During Fisher's leadership at the company, Lectrosonics has garnered a number of industry awards including winning the Cinema Audio Society award for excellence in technology on two occasions. The company's products have long been a mainstay for major movie and TV productions, theatrical and installed sound. Today, Lectrosonics products are sold in nearly every country in the world.
"After more than 40 years of design engineering and administration, I'm going to take time for fast cars, slow comfortable hammocks and interesting travel," explains Larry Fisher. "The very capable Lectrosonics management team has been in place for over a decade and I expect continued innovation and advancement in the coming years as they rise to the challenges of new regulations and spectrum allocations."
Taking the reigns as Lectrosonics president is Gordon Moore, a 26-year veteran of the company and longtime Vice President Sales/Service. Moore has been active in the audio and AV industry since joining Lectrosonics in 1988. In 1991 he became an instructor for the ICIA (International Communications Industries Association) Academy, teaching audio systems design, theory and troubleshooting. In 2000, Moore was voted Educator of the Year by the INFOCOMM Professional Education and Training Committee (PETC) and for 2015 he was named chairman.
"Speaking for the entire bunch of fanatics at Lectrosonics, we wish Larry a well-deserved and fun retirement. Besides, he really doesn't get off that easy – he is only a phone call away and just down the road…" says Moore.
Karl Winkler is being promoted to the position of Vice President, Sales/Service. Winkler, who has been with Lectrosonics for a decade, was previously the company's director of business development. Karl Winkler has worked in the professional audio industry since 1992, when he joined the U.S. Air Force Band in Washington, DC as an audio engineer. He has also given seminars on microphones, audio and wireless microphone systems at Audio Engineering Society conventions, Syn Aud Con seminars and many colleges and universities.
"I'm very excited by this new opportunity with Lectrosonics," says Winkler. "I've thoroughly enjoyed working for the company thus far and look forward to many more years of success with this great team."

When Wolverine Met Hemingway: A History of Ernest Hemingway in Comics: Part I →
Like a Dog
BY Tim Hodler Aug 17, 2016
Today on the site, we have a piece by Robert Elder on the many comic book cameos of Ernest Hemingway.
Celebrity cameos aren't new to comic books. Both Stephen Colbert and President Obama appeared alongside Spider-Man, and Eminem got a two-issues series with the Punisher. Orson Welles helped Superman foil a Martian invasion and John F. Kennedy helped the Man of Steel keep his secret identity.
While working on Hidden Hemingway, my book about the writer's hometown archives, I fell into a deep rabbit hole: Ernest Hemingway appearances in comics. I found him battling fascists alongside Wolverine, playing cards with Harlan Ellison and guiding souls through purgatory in The Life After.
He's appeared alongside Captain Marvel, Cerebus, Donald Duck, Lobo—even a Jazz Age Creeper. Hemingway casts a long shadow in literature, which extends into comic books. It's really only in comics, however, where the Nobel Prize-winner gets treated with equal parts reverence, curiosity and parody.
But as author Tim O'Brien (The Things They Carried) has pointed it, there is no one Ernest Hemingway. In fact, comic books provide a more nuanced view of Hemingway than other forms of pop culture, like the movie Midnight in Paris.
In the 40-plus appearances I found across five languages (English, French, German, Spanish and Italian), Hemingway is often the hyper-masculine legend of Papa: bearded, boozed-up and ready to throw a punch. Just as often, comic book creators see past the bravado, to the sensitive artist looking for validation.
Here, in part one of a multi-part series: we explore Hemingway homages, appearances and doppelgangers in comics, from the divine to the ridiculous.
Meanwhile, elsewhere:
—The Daniel Clowes auction for Frank Santoro's comics school is ending today.
—Comics Creator News has a long, compelling, and outspoken interview with Trevor Von Eeden.
Unfortunately, the folks at DC Comics chose to play a very mean-spirited and ill-advised "prank" on me, shortly after I'd started drawing the series—one with tremendous repercussions on my life and career. Newbie editor Alan Gold (who took over the editorial chores starting with issue #2) and I were summoned to a meeting to discuss the book (I forget whose office it was)—where there was only one chair available, for only one of us to sit. I refused three invitations to sit down, since there was no way I was going to sit, and have my editor stand around like an uninvited guest in a meeting that concerned us both. Alan then decided to break the ice, and after my third refusal, moved to sit in the chair himself. It collapsed completely to the floor, where he was left sitting flat on his ass, with all four legs of the chair splayed out around him. After a pause of about half a second, he laughed uproariously. However, I didn't find that joke intended to be played out at my expense the least bit funny—as I said, I took my job very seriously—nor did I find funny the fact that the meeting mysteriously evaporated after that, with no explanation nor apology given about the strangely collapsing chair, and without a single thing about THRILLER being discussed.
—And Ruben Bolling was a guest on the RIYL podcast.


The Day of the Gun, Part XVIII
McEnroe — no relation to the famous tennis player — never made it. A hail of bullets tore into the young man at least a dozen times. He wore a bulletproof Kevlar vest, but multiple rounds struck him in the face and head. There was no question that he was dead before he hit the ground. He flew off his feet and slammed to the floor as though someone had pounded him in the chest. In a manner of speaking, someone had done exactly that.
The nurse at the end of the hall disappeared from view as soon as the shooting started. A gunman sporting a ski mask and dressed in black from head to toe ran down the hall in her direction while the other man trained his Uzi on the remaining Marshal.
Williams was an experienced law enforcement officer. He positioned his body between Steve and the gunman, as he had been trained to do. If he felt fear, he did not show it, nor did he duck for cover. He lifted his Glock and aimed it at the assailant.
It was hardly a fair fight. The ski-masked assassin sported far more firepower than the U.S. Marshal, and he had the element of surprise on his side. But one well-placed bullet is all it takes. Both men squeezed off rounds simultaneously — Williams fired a single shot while the would-be assassin unleashed a hail of bullets — and both men went down, hard.
Williams clearly was dead. Three rounds decimated his face, and one took out his left eye. The back of his head exploded from his skull and adorned the wall next to the fire alarm like a weird abstract painting from some struggling artist's red period. The only sound he made as he collapsed to the floor was a dull thud followed by the metallic clang of his revolver slamming against the floor.
Still slouched in his wheelchair, covering his head, Steve was heartened to see the gunman collapse. He could not tell precisely where the man had been hit but, judging by the blood spurting from what little remained of his face, it seemed to be a head shot.
The entire exchange had lasted no more than a few seconds, but in that small interval three men were dead and the nurse probably was — or would be soon. It was only remarkably good fortune and the selfless sacrifice of McEnroe and Williams that had saved Steve Harris so far.
He had only seconds before the other man returned, and so he had to act fast. Lifting himself from the wheelchair, he dropped to the floor. A sharp pain shot through his shoulder and traveled along his arm. Steve had never suffered a heart attack, but this was what he imagined it felt like. He gritted his teeth, winced, and struggled not to black out.
For close to a minute, he cradled his injured appendage and waited for the pain to subside. It was as though someone had struck him in the solar plexus and knocked the breath from his body. His lungs fought for air with tortured gasps.
Finally, after what seemed an eternity, he was able to move. No sooner had he twisted his body toward the elevators than the metal poll holding his IV bag crashed beside him with a resounding clang. Startled, he jumped, which again sent a bolt of pain through his wounded shoulder.
"Oh, crap," Steve muttered. Reaching for IV extending into his hand, he tore the medical tape from the wound and extracted the needle. It stung, but he was too frightened to react much. Grabbing a handful of wires and tubes, he yanked them, hard, thus freeing himself from the confines of the hospital apparatus.
Somewhere down the hall, he heard the unmistakable rat-a-tat-tat of a submachine being discharged. Screams of human agony echoed down the hallway before more gunfire cut off the voices of the wounded and the damned.
He was conscious of his heart slamming against his ribs, his dry mouth, and the icy hand of fear snaking its way through his body. I'm in shock, he thought. God help me. I'm in shock.
Carefully skirting the IV bag and tubes still attached to the metal pole, Steve slid on his butt along the smoothly polished surface of the floor until he reached Williams's Glock. It felt heavy and reassuring, almost like holding an old friend in his hand. His shoulder sent a dull series of aching pains through his body; they kept time with his heartbeat.
Fortunately, his long-ago training had not deserted him. He released the clip and saw that it was almost full. Thank God for small favors. In one swift motion, Steve tucked his friend into the pocket of his oversized bathrobe. He would have preferred to grab the assassin's machine gun, but it was too far away. He did not think he could cover the distance, secure the gun, and still engineer an escape. Also, firing an automatic rifle would be difficult in his condition. The recoil from an Uzi could tear up his shoulder worse than it already was.
With genuine regret, he pushed himself on his behind to the stairwell. He dared not take the elevator; it was too slow and too easy to track. Somehow, he had to tap his reservoir of hidden strength and find the will to make his way onto another hospital floor.
Grunting and gasping for breath as beads of sweat popped out on his forehead, he grasped the door jam and used his good arm to pull himself up to his feet. He felt lightheaded. His first inclination was to collapse back into the chair, but he knew that he was doomed if he did not keep moving.
"Uhh," he gasped as he threw his hipbone against the metal door leading to the stairs. The door swung open and he almost tumbled down a flight of stairs. His shoulder again screamed out in pain, causing him to weave back and forth on his already leaden feet. Luckily, he found the banister before he lost his balance.
The second gunman saw the door to the stairwell slam shut as he rounded the corner from the nurse's station. He had killed three on-duty nurses and a hospital security guard, but his target was about to escape. Cursing under his breath, he sprinted for the door.
At the end of the hall, he stopped to survey the damage. The Marshals were dead but so, too, was his partner. God damn, what a mess, he thought.
Pushing himself through the door leading to the stairs, he found a labyrinth of steel banisters and stairs leading up and down. Pausing, he heard the telltale sounds of someone negotiating the steps. The echo made it impossible to know if the sound was coming from above or below him, but he gambled. If the target was hurt and weak from the medication, he probably chose to go down rather than up.
With no more hesitation, the fellow threw himself onto the stairs and took them two at a time. He pointed the Uzi up toward the sky, but he held it in two hands for easy access.
Within seconds, he knew he had made the right decision. A single brown bedroom slipper lay abandoned on the landing. The target could not be far ahead.
Rounding the next stairwell, he saw the back of a terrycloth robe disappear into a doorway three floors below. Raising his machine gun, he almost squeezed off a round before the target moved out of sight. Damn, he thought. Almost had him. Well, at least this whole unpleasant business would be over soon.
He bounded down several more sets of stairs and reached for the door. His whole body jerked as he heard the shrill sound of the hospital fire alarm. Whoa, he thought. Smart move. The target was not panicked; he was thinking ahead.
On one hand, this frenzied flight was prolonging the inevitable and interfering with the assassin's plans. On the other hand, wasn't it the unplanned adventures that kept his job fresh and made life interesting?
OK, guy. You wanna play? Here I come!

Lotus's Raikkonen chances boosted
By alley July 30, 2013 3:07 AM
By alley | July 30, 2013 3:07 AM ET
Lotus's hopes of convincing Kimi Raikkonen to stay next year are set for a boost later this week, with the team hoping to finalize its investment deal with Infinity Racing.
The former Renault team announced recently that the group of investors were to buy a 35 percent stake in the team to help provide a much more secure financial setup. Such a deal would not only give the team the foundations it needed to shore up its technical progress, but would guarantee the stability that Raikkonen has been looking for.
Although there have been doubts about the Infinity Racing deal coming off after team owner Gerard Lopez revealed recently that things had not progressed as fast as he hoped, matters moved forward significantly last weekend. Key figures from Infinity Racing held talks with Lotus chiefs, and their presence at the Hungarian GP was viewed as a positive signal that the deal was back on course.
Team principal Eric Boullier hopes that matters will be finalized in the next few days.
"I think by the end of this week everything should be clear," Boullier said. "The deal gives us more than optimism for the future. It gives us the means to bring all the resources to go to the next step in terms of stability, size and, let's say, power."
When asked if the financial boost provided by the Infinity Racing was what Raikkonen was looking for to commit to Lotus, Boullier said: "It is not the main thing, but it is one of the things yes.
"We are not the biggest team after the big four, and clearly the strategy we had since the beginning is that you have build in cycles. We put everything all in to make the team better, and now we are better we can attract sponsors and investors. That is what we are doing now.
"It obviously takes more time than expected, but we are talking about a big deal. And once this deal is cleared, which it should be this week, we know for the next years, many years, the platform will be one step up."

Coca-Cola Foundation awards additional $13.5M in grants to support nonprofits
Five nonprofits on the front lines of COVID-19 receive humanitarian help
The Coca-Cola Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Atlanta-based The Coca-Cola Co., announced it is awarding a total of $13.5 million in grants to five nonprofit organizations that are working on the front lines of the U.S. and Canadian humanitarian response to the coronavirus pandemic.
The latest grants support organizations focused on providing relief to first responders and residents of economically disadvantaged communities, both in the company's hometown of Atlanta and across North America. The company and the foundation will continue to evaluate additional opportunities for grants around the world as the crisis evolves, it says.
"We are deeply concerned about the growing impact of coronavirus in Atlanta and beyond, especially in the most vulnerable parts of our communities," said James Quincey, chairman and chief executive officer The Coca-Cola Co., in a statement. "We are using the resources of our company and The Coca-Cola Foundation to make a difference by providing much-needed assistance to organizations that are positioned to mobilize quickly and provide essential humanitarian relief."
The following organizations immediately are receiving grants:
Feeding America: A grant of $5 million will support the organization's COVID-19 Response Fund to enable a network of more than 200 food banks across the United States to feed the most vulnerable members of the community during the crisis.
Boys & Girls Clubs of America: A grant of $5 million will help the organization with its plan to engage more than 4.7 million students in communities where schools are currently closed. Relief efforts will include providing meals and essential community services, as well as lending support to families of first responders, military, National Guard, Military Reserve and healthcare workers when needed. The organization also is planning to operate for longer hours, particularly in parts of the United States that are hardest hit and most deeply impacted.
Boys & Girls Clubs of Canada: A grant of $750,000 will help provide food and essentials for families and club employees who are struggling; care for children of emergency health workers; mental health and counseling; and other emergency needs.
Food Banks Canada: A grant of $750,000 will help provide food to communities during the outbreak through a network of more than 650 food bank organizations and 4,500 distribution centers.
Center for Disaster Philanthropy: A $2 million grant will support the center's COVID-19 Response Fund to help local agencies that provide childcare and other community services for people whose lives and jobs are most impacted by the crisis.
Additionally, the foundation previously awarded a $5 million grant to the COVID-19 Response and Recovery Fund, which was established by The Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta and United Way of Greater Atlanta. The fund will support work by Atlanta organizations to meet immediate needs in economically vulnerable communities that are disproportionately impacted by public crises.
In addition to supporting U.S.- and Canada-based organizations, The Coca-Cola Foundation previously awarded a total of $2 million in grants to support efforts in China and Italy. The foundation continues to closely monitor future needs and potentially will provide further support, it says.

for the period in which the Controller may incur legal consequences of non-compliance, e.g. be fined with an administrative penalty.
(4) Data recipients
In order to perform a contract and to ensure the proper functioning of the Controller's website, he uses the services of third parties cooperating with him (for example: postal services, couriers, payment service entities). Personal data is transferred to third parties only if and to the extent that makes it necessary to achieve the purpose of processing. Personal data provided to third parties may be used only for the purpose of the task ordered by the Controller.
Personal data may be provided to the following recipients cooperating with the Controller:
members of HLB International – to the extent necessary for the purposes resulting from the legitimate interests pursued by the Controller, including internal administrative purposes,
entities conducting postal, courier and similar activities (e.g. courier brokers) – to the extent necessary to carry out the delivery and correspondence,
selected entities acting on behalf of the Controller when handling accounting, tax, advisory, legal and debt recovery matters (including entities purchasing debt) – to the extent necessary to carry out a specific purpose of processing,
entities providing technical assistance services provided to the Controller and IT solution providers enabling the Controller to operate (for example, software, e-mail and hosting providers) – the Controller provides personal data to the trusted provider acting on his behalf only in the case and to the extent necessary to carry out a specific purpose of processing,
providers of solutions which serve the purpose of expressing/publishing client opinions – to the extent necessary to express such opinions.
(5) Transferring data outside the EEA
Personal data may be transferred outside the European Economic Area (including the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway) to Google LLC based on appropriate legal safeguards, which are standard contractual clauses of personal data protection, approved by the European Commission; see also point 9 Online Analysis.
(6) The rights of the data subject
The processing of personal data does not require any consent if, among other things: the processing is necessary to perform a contract, or take actions before a contract is concluded, results from a legal obligation of the Controller or is necessary to carry out the legitimate interest of the Controller. If the consent is necessary to be able to process personal data for a specific purpose, the Controller asks for such consent. The consent given can be withdrawn at any time.
In the event of withdrawal of consent, the data will no longer be processed to the extent that the consent was granted, but the withdrawal of the consent will not affect the lawfulness of the processing, which was made on the basis of consent before its withdrawal.
Pursuant to the principles set out in the Regulation, the data subject also has the right: to demand from the Controller access to the personal data relating to them, rectify it, delete it ("to be forgotten") or limit its processing, to object to the processing, as well as to transfer such data.
If personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, one can object at any time to the processing of this data for marketing purposes, including profiling, to the extent to which the processing is related to direct marketing.
In order to perform the above rights, an application should be submitted to the Controller by e-mail, letter or in person at the Controller's office; Controller's contact details can be found in point 2 above. To make sure that the person submitting the application is entitled to submit it, the Controller may ask for additional information confirming the identity of the person submitting.
The provisions of the Regulation indicate to what extent each of these rights can be used. This will depend in particular on the legal basis and purpose of personal data processing by the Controller. The above rights can be used free of charge not often than once per 6 months. In accordance with Article 12 of the Regulation, if the data subject's demands are manifestly unjustified or excessive, in particular because of its continuing nature, the Controller may charge a fee.
The data subject has the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory body, i.e. the President of the Office for Personal Data Protection.
(7) Obligation or no obligation to provide personal data
Using the Controller's services and providing personal data to him is voluntary. However, the data subject is obliged to provide it in connection with:
concluding a contract with the Controller – in this case, providing personal data is a contractual condition and the data subject is obliged to provide the required data if they want to conclude a contract with the Controller. Each time, the extent of data required to conclude a contract is communicated to the data subject. Failure to provide this data results in failure to conclude such contract.
implementing the obligations arising from the provisions of law on the Controller – in this case, providing personal data is a statutory condition resulting from the provisions imposing on the Controller the obligation to process personal data (e.g. in connection with the obligation to issue, collect and store invoices and accounting documents and keep accounting books). Failure to provide this data will prevent the Controller from performing the indicated obligations, which will result in failure to conclude a contract.
(8) Use of data for advertising purposes
8.1 Newsletter
Our newsletter is sent only to people who have given us consent to send it by providing their e-mail address. At any time, consent to receive the newsletter can be withdraw by clicking on the unsubscribe link provided in each newsletter sent or by contacting the Controller at the above address.

The transfer is therefore necessary for the provision of services to the user. In such a case, the transfer of data takes place on the basis of appropriate safeguards in accordance with the provisions of personal data protection.
The Controller currently sends the newsletter using the MailChimp platform, therefore the recipient of your data is The Rocket Science Group LLC with the seat 675 Ponce de Leon Ave NE, Suite 5000, Atlanta, GA 30308 USA.
This entity guarantees that personal data transferred to the United States of America is secure because they are protected under the EU-US agreement – see also Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/1250 of 12 July 2016 pursuant to Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the adequacy of the protection provided by the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield (notified under document C(2016) 4176) (Text with EEA relevance)

Item 4. Description of Securities.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Virginia Stock Corporation Act (the "VSCA") establishes a statutory limit on liability of directors and officers of a Virginia corporation for damages assessed against it in a suit brought by or in the right of the corporation or brought by or on behalf of shareholders of the corporation and authorizes the corporation to specify a lower monetary limit on liability (including the elimination of liability) in its articles of incorporation or shareholder-approved bylaws; however, the liability of a director or an officer director shall not be limited if such director or officer engaged in willful misconduct or a knowing violation of the criminal law or of any federal or state securities law, including any unlawful insider trading or manipulation of the market for any security.
Under the VSCA, a Virginia corporation generally is authorized to indemnify its directors and officers in civil or criminal actions if they acted in good faith and believed their conduct to be in the best interests of the corporation and, in the case of criminal actions, had no reasonable cause to believe that the conduct was unlawful. The VSCA requires such indemnification when a director or an officer entirely prevails in the defense of any proceeding to which he or she was a party because he or she is or was a director or an officer of the corporation, and further provides that a Virginia corporation may make any other or further indemnity (including indemnity with respect to a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation), and may make additional provision for advances and reimbursement of expenses, if authorized by the corporation's articles of incorporation or shareholder-approved bylaws, except an indemnity against willful misconduct or a knowing violation of criminal law.
The VSCA permits a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any director or officer against any liability asserted against, and incurred in his or her capacity as, a director or an officer, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify the director or officer against this liability under Virginia law.
The Company's amended and restated articles of incorporation eliminates the liability of its directors and officers to the company or its shareholders for monetary damages with respect to any transaction, occurrence or course of conduct, except in the case of willful misconduct or a knowing violation of the criminal law or any federal or state securities law. The Company is required to indemnify its directors and officers in connection with any proceeding brought upon such director or officer by reason of having been a director or officer unless he or she engaged in willful misconduct or a knowing violation of the criminal law. In addition, the company's articles of incorporation requires it to pay for or reimburse the reasonable expenses incurred by a director or officer who is a party to a proceeding in advance of final disposition of the proceeding or a final determination as to the availability of indemnification if the director or officer furnishes to the company a written statement of his or her good faith belief that he or she has met the relevant standard of conduct and a written undertaking, executed personally or on his or her behalf, to repay the advance if it is ultimately determined that he or she did not meet such standard of conduct.
The Company carries insurance on behalf of its directors and officers.

24.1 Powers of Attorney (included on signature page)
Item 9. Undertakings.
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section (10)(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-8 and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in the reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the indemnification provisions summarized in Item 6 above, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful
defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Railway unions meet in Austria to build network for Fair Transport
A meeting in Bad Goisern, Austria, saw unions from four countries discuss how to incorporate the Fair Transport Campaign into their work on railways. Meeting on 26-28 February 2018, the Steering Committee for Cross-Border Cooperation drew workers representatives from the unions OSZ (Czech Republic), SSSLO (Slovenia), EVG (Germany) and ÖGB (Austria).
Due to the increasing competition in rail transport the economic pressure on workers is raising all over Europe. Trade unions insist on having fair working conditions and they make clear that there is no room for wage and social dumping in the common region. That is why they work together across borders and why they are highly networked in their respective regions. Works Councils and Unions are aware of the challenges and dangers of cross-border working. They are working together to make improvements, so that people's working conditions are good, no matter what country they come from and where they go to.
In the meeting in Austria, workers representatives from the unions agreed to cooperate intensively in the interest of the employees and beyond the borders, in order to avoid wage and social dumping. Being well-informed about the workers' situation in the neighboring countries enables trade union representatives to be well-prepared for upcoming developments as well as to respond quickly to current challenges.
This kind of international solidarity is exactly what the Fair Transport campaign is about. By standing together across borders, workers have greater strength to defend quality work from dumping and unfair competition.

What Are the Elements That Make for Good and Effective Writing?
Maria OCadiz Updated March 07, 2017
Writing is a form of communication that permeates through almost every aspect of our personal, educational and professional lives. Although some parts of good writing are open to interpretation, effective writing always leads to compelling content, so writers need to polish up on their skills if they are to captivate their readers.
Proper Organization
An effective writer organizes his ideas in a manner that flows logically from the beginning to the end of the article, essay or report. The topic communicates the main point or argument the writer wants to explore while each subsequent section, such as the introduction, body, conclusion and recommendations, expound on the idea. A written work can contain several subtopics or subheadings depending on the scope of the writer's ideas. Writers enhance the quality of their work through examples, case studies and other supporting evidence that help the reader understand the ideas. Furthermore, effective writers use appropriate paragraphs to help organize their work. Ideally, each paragraph contains a topic sentence, supporting sentences and a conclusion.
An effective writer communicates his points using clear and concise language without being verbose, vague or long winded. Writers can achieve this objective through constant editing of their work to cut out complex vocabulary, jargon and unnecessary words or repetitive phrases, such as "terrible tragedy" or "red in color" that do not add any value to the sentence. Writers can also go through their work to remove convoluted sentences that detract from the main point and make it difficult for readers to follow. A writer should present his work to a sample audience before submitting it to confirm that he has written in the clearest way possible.
Style is crucial to writing effectively since it determines whether readers keep interested in the work or get bored or confused. Readability and elegance are two key elements in an effective writing style, so a writer needs to use appropriate voice, word choice and sentence order to move the reader along easily between words, sentences and paragraphs. An effective writer uses active voice to make strong, clear points and avoids passive voice because it introduces ambiguity. Good writing also incorporates appropriate words and properly constructed sentences that convey the writer's meaning.
The hallmark of good and effective writing is work that is free from common spelling, grammatical or typographical errors. Effective writers edit and proofread their work to ensure there are no spelling mistakes or typographical errors that change the meaning of a word or phrase. They also guard against grammatical errors as they lower the quality of a written work. The use of slang or colloquial expressions may indicate a lack of proper command of the language, so writers need to eliminate all such words in the text of their written work.

Texas Executes By Far the Most People of Any State
Last Updated: January 4, 2023 10:13 am
Executions – by hanging, firing squad, electric chair, or lethal injections – have been part of the U.S. justice system since the founding of the country. From 1608 to 2002, 15,629 people were executed. Between the late 1970s and this year, there were 1,558 executions
That number has declined over the decades, as more states have abolished the death penalty, issued moratoriums, or simply did not order the punishment. The most recent states to abolish the death penalty were New Mexico, Illinois, and Connecticut. And though capital punishment exists in 27 states, 37 states have not carried out executions in the past 10 years. In the past five years, 39 states did not carry out executions.
Some states continue to execute prisoners, with Texas leading in the number of executions, according to data from Death Row U.S.A. Spring 2022, a report by the Legal Defense Fund. Most states that still carry out executions are larger states, based on population.
Among the 35 jurisdictions that carried out executions since 1976, the number of executions ranges from one to nearly 580 in Texas. The Lone Star state accounted for 37% of all executions nationwide in that time. In each of the states, the vast majority of prisoners who have been put to death, if not all, were men. Texas executed six female prisoners over that time. (Here are the most depraved serial killers in history.)
The last person to have been executed was Texas inmate Stephen Barbee, who killed his pregnant ex-girlfriend and her 7-year-old son more than 17 years ago. Barbee received a lethal injection on Nov. 16 after courts rejected his appeals. Another prisoner, Tracy Beatty, who was found guilty for murdering his mother in East Texas in 2003, was injected with lethal drugs on Nov. 9. Beatty had a history of mental illness.
Texas executed five prisoners in 2022 and scheduled nine more executions for 2023. The state has 198 prisoners on death row, 45% of them Black, 27% white, 26% Latino/a, and 2% Asian. Texas is not, however, the state with the most prisoners on death row. That state is California, which has had a moratorium on the death penalty for a few years and its last execution was in 2006. (Here is a look at the states with the most people on death row.)
Here are the states and jurisdictions where the most people have been executed in the United States.

Many Different Kinds of Love: A story of life, death and the NHS
Michael Rosen (Author)
Pre-Order Ships 18 March 2021
A national treasure's journey to the brink and back.
'Will I wake up?'
'There's a 50:50 chance.'
In March 2020, Michael Rosen became unwell. Soon he was struggling to breathe, and he was admitted to hospital with coronavirus. What followed was months on the wards: a month in an induced coma, and weeks of rehab and recovery as the NHS saved his life, and then got him back on his feet. Throughout it all, a diary was kept at the end of Michael's bed, where his nurses wrote him letters of hope and support. And as soon as he was awake, he was ready to start writing his own story.
Combining stunning new prose poems by one of Britain's best loved poets and the moving coronavirus diaries of his nurses, and featuring original illustrations by Chris Riddell, this is a beautiful book about love, life and the NHS that celebrates the power of community and the indomitable spirits of the people who keep us well.
