In addition to pulling the strings at now-defunct puppet anti-obesity group Global Energy Balance Network, it seems sugary drink maker Coca-Cola also bankrolled travel expenses for the organization’s president and University of Colorado professor James Hill. The Denver Post reports that Hill, a “nutrition expert” received kickbacks from the soda company to travel the world preaching his pro-soda cause and also called in a favor to get his son a job.

According to the Post, Coke spokesman Ben Sheidler confirms that beginning in 2010 it paid Hill $550,000 for “honoraria, travel, education activities and research on weight management.” Emails shed further light on Hill’s activities. The GEBN president traveled to Mexico, Grenada, England, Australia, and New Zealand on Coke’s dime. He also paid for his wife’s trip to Australia and New Zealand using the company’s gift.

Later, Hill contacted Coca-Cola vice president Rhona Applebaum for help in finding his son a job. “I am totally biased but this kid is something special. He is very interested in spending a couple of years in D.C. doing something related to international affairs/politics,” he wrote. “I know you spend a fair amount of time in DC and work with your staff there. Does Coca Cola ever have any positions (interns maybe) for something like this.” She later replied, “I will make this happen!”

It was recently revealed through an email leak that Coca-Cola paid GEBN “unrestricted grants” in excess of $1.5 million and was allowed to edit the group’s mission statement and logo.

HEART DISEASE:

Can Too Much Exercise Harm the Heart?

By Gretchen Reynolds

With many of us contemplating marathons or other prolonged endurance events in 2016, we, our spouses and other family members most likely have wondered whether such strenuous training could be harmful to our hearts. Could any of us, in making ambitious resolutions, exercise too much?

A newly published scientific review offers both reassurance and some caution. It found that while most athletes hearts can withstand most exercise, there are exceptions. For some people in seemingly good health, heavy loads of exercise might be problematic. Thats why all of us who work out should be as informed as possible about our familys cardiac history and our own potential genetic risks.

Exercise, of course, is in general extremely beneficial for heart health. Dozens of large-scale epidemiological studies have found that people who exercise in any amount, whether five minutes a day or two hours a day or more, are much less likely to develop or die from heart disease than people who are sedentary.

But these studies, while encouraging, contain a disquieting subtext. Their plotted data typically shows some type of bell curve to the heart benefits from exercise, meaning that the more people work out, the less they are at risk of cardiac problems up to a point, and then the benefits plateau or decline.

To some scientists, that finding made little intuitive sense. If a little exercise is good for the heart, why shouldnt more be continually better?

snip

Perhaps most surprising, older marathon runners can be just as susceptible as their sedentary counterparts to atherosclerosis, or the buildup of dangerous plaques in the arteries, the studies show. Strenuous exercise does not prevent these plaques in people who are predisposed by heredity or lifestyle to the condition.

The act of exercising, however, may increase the risk that the plaques will rupture, precipitating a heart attack. Someone with atherosclerosis is more likely, studies show, to have a heart attack while running than while sitting quietly.

But many older athletes with atherosclerosis have no idea they suffer from the condition, which often causes few symptoms.

ORGANIZATIONS: AMERICAN COLLEGE OF OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY (ACOG):

ACOG Updates Guidelines on Prenatal Obesity, Exercise

Troy Brown, RN

December 28, 2015

Medscape Medical News

http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/856536

Two new guidelines from the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG) emphasize the need for exercise during pregnancy and the post-postpartum period to prevent or correct maternal weight issues.

Practice Bulletin Number 156, “Obesity in Pregnancy,” and Committee Opinion Number 650, “Physical Activity and Exercise During Pregnancy and the Postpartum Period,” appear in the December issue of Obstetrics & Gynecology. Together, the documents address the clinical management of overweight and obese women before and during pregnancy, and the need for women to exercise regularly to prevent or correct overweight or obesity.

More than half of all women of childbearing age in the United States are overweight or obese, the group writes, and obesity in pregnancy is associated with significant and extensive risks for both the mother and her fetus.

Even Small Preconception Weight Loss Improves Pregnancy Outcomes

“Optimal control of obesity begins before conception,” the practice bulletin authors write. “Weight loss before pregnancy, achieved by surgical or nonsurgical methods, has been shown to be the most effective intervention to improve medical comorbidities. Obese women who have even small weight reductions before pregnancy may have improved pregnancy outcomes.”

Lead author Patrick M. Catalano, MD, from Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, and Metro Health, both in Cleveland, Ohio, said in an ACOG news release. “Ob-gyns are often the only physician women see on a regular basis, therefore we are in the optimal position to help educate women on the importance of fighting obesity.”

An Indoor Agriculture Startup is Bringing ‘Local Farming’
to Every Corner of the US

In early October, a little more than a hundred people gathered in an unlikely event space in New York City to talk about farming. They discussed water usage and efficient transportation, the price of LEDs and intellectual property concerns.

This was the first time the event, dubbed Indoor Ag Con, was held in New York, and it brought together the founders of alternative farming companies like BrightFarm, Aerofarms and Gotham Greens alongside technologists, lighting experts and researchers.

Indoor agriculture refers to an increasingly popular form of crop cultivation that happens inside, making it less of a traditional farm and more of a manufacturing facility. Where traditional farms rely on irrigation systems, soil and sunlight, indoor farms use LEDs or high pressure sodium lamps, and grow in hydroponic or aeroponic systems. Without bugs, proponents say, pesticides can be reduced and the overall product is not only more controlled but healthier.

Critics, however, warn that indoor agriculture is an energy-intensive way for companies to take over areas of food production where family farms and small businesses have excelled in recent years, as demand for local, organic products has increased.

Indoor agriculture is still in its infancy, but the CEO of Chicago-based FarmedHere, Matt Matros, signals a new type of food entrepreneur. Like a lot of people in the industry, Matros comes from a non-agriculture background. He worked as a brand manager at Kraft Foods, then went on to found the restaurant chain Protein Bar. After selling the company, he went on a sabbatical abroad, which got him thinking about the lack of access to fresh produce in many areas around the world.

That landed him at FarmedHere, founded in Illinois in 2011. Now in a 90,000 square-foot facility in Chicagos Bedford Park, the largest indoor farm in North America uses aquaponics to produce organic herbs and leafy greens, distributed to grocery stores and restaurants in the Chicago area.

And theyre looking to grow even bigger.

Its been a number of hobbyists who have scraped together a few thousand [dollars] to make an indoor farm and have tried to make it a little bit bigger and a little bit bigger, says Matros. But theres no one really professionalizing it or automating it, or fully putting capitol towards making big farms to feed lots of people. And I think the industry is about to tip.

He hopes to do so by becoming the local farm for every community in the country. Matros is planning to open about 20 new facilities across the US that serve consumers within a 200-mile radius.

snip

In each region, Matros hopes the company can work with local farmers to incorporate their goods into FarmedHeres distribution. In Florida, for example, they could work with citrus farmers; in New York, with dairy farmers.

snip

Its not hard to find people who dont believe that indoor farming is a panacea. In a presentation this September, Bruce Bugbee from Utah State Universitys Department of Plants, Soils and Climate made the case that the fossil fuels needed to support the crops would add up to about $400,000 per acre.

snip

Lou Albright, professor emeritus at Cornell University estimated in a February 2014 presentation that each pound of lettuce created in an indoor farm would require about eight pounds of carbon dioxide.

Set your indoor daytime temperature in the range of 65 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit and night temperature about 60 to 65 degrees. But dont place your tropical foliage plants too close to the window frame or near the hot air vent.

Light is the biggest limiting factor for many houseplants. Depending on the light tolerance level, place the houseplants either near a window or under artificial light. Plants that can adapt to low lights such as Chinese evergreen, grape ivy, philodendron, peace lily, Boston fern, and rubber tree can be placed near the north-facing windows. Flowering houseplants such as Christmas cactus, cyclamen, African violet, and amaryllis will do best near east-facing windows as they need cooler temperatures and indirect light for most of the day.

Foliage and xerophytic plants such as cactus, succulents, jade plant, citrus species, coffee, schefflera, and hibiscus need direct light and will perform well near south-facing windows. West-facing windows receive indirect light during morning hours and direct light in mid to late afternoon. Houseplants such as ficus, croton, ponytail, spider plant and mother-in-laws tongue can adapt either under direct or indirect light levels near a west-facing window. In case you cant set the plants near the windows, then place a reflective mirror in a suitable angle to direct the light to your plants. Regular fluorescent lights can also be used on limited houseplants such as African violets to induce their bloom or to sustain the foliage growth of some houseplants.

The tornado that slashed through Garland and Rowlett on Saturday was rated as EF4 the strongest December twister the local National Weather Service office has ever recorded. Was that abnormal weather?

Not really. Raining frogs or brimstone would be abnormal. Tornadoes, even in North Texas in December, are a regular terrestrial phenomenon. And the United States sees 10 times more tornadoes every year than any other country.

But Saturdays storms surely were unusual. How unusual were they? Were they part of any larger pattern of strange weather or changing climate? Is there anything people can do to prevent tornadoes?

snip

Topics Covered in This Article:

How unusual were those storms?

Why did these storms pop up?

Did forecasters provide enough warning about the possibility of tornadoes in this area?

Could there ever have been other EF4 tornadoes in this area, or even stronger ones?

How often do tornadoes hit the U.S. in December?

Was North Texas the only part of the country to experience unusual weather in the past week?

Why are tornadoes rare in the winter? Violent storms, including blizzards, certainly arent.

How about El Ni? Did that make Saturdays storms more likely?

Should we try to kill tornadoes before they do damage?

[Net-Gold] ENVIRONMENT: GLOBAL WARMING AND CLIMATE CHANGE : DISASTERS: Cataclysms from the North Pole to South America

Posted on December 31, 2015 by jwneastro

ENVIRONMENT: GLOBAL WARMING AND CLIMATE CHANGE :

DISASTERS:

Cataclysms from the North Pole to South America

By Darryl Fears and Angela Fritz

December 30, 2015 at 8:18 PM

https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/
freakish-weather-runs-from-top-of-the-world-to-the-bottom/
2015/12/30/61203efa-af2c-11e5-b711-1998289ffcea_story.html

A shorter URL for the above link:

http://tinyurl.com/j8rl7f4

From the top of the world to near the bottom, freakish and unprecedented weather has sent temperatures soaring across the Arctic, whipped the United Kingdom with hurricane-force winds and spawned massive flooding in South America.

The same storm that slammed the southern United States with deadly tornadoes and swamped the Midwest, causing even greater loss of life, continued on to the Arctic. Sub-tropical air pulled there is now sitting over Iceland, and at what should be a deeply sub-zero North Pole, temperatures on Wednesday appeared to reach the melting point more than 50 degrees above normal. That was warmer than Chicago.

Only twice before has the Arctic been so warm in winter. Residents of Iceland are bracing for conditions to grow much worse as one of the most powerful storms ever recorded blasts through the North Atlantic. This rare bomb cyclone arrived with sudden winds of 70 miles per hour and waves that lashed the coast.

Thousands of miles south, in the center of Latin America, downpours fueled by the Pacific Oceans giant El Ni pattern have drenched regions of Paraguay, Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay.

In whats described as the worst flooding in a half-century, more than 160,000 people have fled their homes. The Paraguay River in that nation is within inches of topping its banks, and the Uruguay River in Argentina is 46 feet above normal, according to a BBC News report.

The dramatic storms are ending a year of record-setting weather globally, with July measured as the hottest month ever and 2015 set to be the warmest year.

Up and down the U.S. East Coast, this month will close as the hottest December ever. In much of the Northeast into Canada, temperatures on Christmas rose into the 70s tricking bushes and trees into bloom in many locations. In the Washington area, forsythia, azaleas and even cherry blossoms were suddenly in full color.

I see this as a double whammy, Michael Mann, a professor of meteorology at Penn State University, said in an email. El Ni . . . is one factor, human-caused climate change and global warming is another. You put the two together, and you get dramatic increases in certain types of extreme weather events.

The impact is more and more devastating.

In rain-soaked Missouri, where more than a dozen people have died because of the flooding, Gov. Jay Nixon (D) has declared a state of emergency.

Almost two dozen levees along the Mississippi River are considered at risk, and forecasts are calling for record or near-record crests of the river and tributaries that feed it. Nearly 450 river gauges have hit flood stage since Monday, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

From Illinois to Texas, 6 to 12 inches of rain have fallen since Dec. 26. Dozens of new precipitation marks were set last weekend, in some cases doubling or even tripling old records.

snip

Under normal circumstances, this degree of wintertime flooding is not possible because there is not enough moisture in cold winter air to support such rainfall totals.

Tamir Rice Shooting: Not Just a Tragedy

How did a child with a toy gun get shot by police in an open-carry state?

By Joseph P. Williams

December 29, 2015, at 6:48 p.m.

U.S. News

http://www.usnews.com/news/articles/2015-12-29/ tamir-rice-shooting-not-just-a-tragedy

A shorter URL for the above link:

When a Cleveland prosecutor announced Tuesday that he’d recommended a grand jury not indict a city police officer for gunning down a 12-year-old boy armed with a toy pellet gun, he called it a confluence of human error, mistakes and miscommunication.

But experts say the “perfect storm” that Timothy McGinty, Cuyahoga County prosecutor, blamed for the December 2014 killing of Tamir Rice was, in fact, due less to tragic happenstance and more to concrete factors. They include systemic racial bias in society as well as law enforcement, a flawed justice system and a lack of willingness to hold police accountable for errors in judgment — including seemingly selective interpretation of the state’s controversial “open carry” firearms law.

Meanwhile, Buckeye State firearms advocates who fought in the legislature, in the courts and on the streets for the right to legally carry guns in public — as advocates say Tamir did on the day he died — they’ve deliberately kept quiet about his death. That’s despite plans to push the state towards allowing college students to openly carry guns on campus, and to allow anyone to carry a gun in public without a permit.

“People are saying, ‘When will it end?'” says Ohio Rep. Alicia Reece, a Democrat whose district includes part of Cincinnati. Millions of people nationwide saw video of Officer Timothy Loehmann, a rookie Cleveland patrolman, shoot the 12-year-old-boy “within seconds” of approaching him, even though callers to 911 told dispatchers the suspect probably wasn’t an adult and the gun might be a toy.

Now, “a 12-year-old child is dead,” and authorities didn’t even try to hold Loehmann criminally responsible “for over a year,” Reece says. “People are saying, ‘Where is the accountability?”

snip

To resolve the case — which took place just days after a grand jury in Ferguson, Missouri, declined to indict Officer Darren Wilson, who is white, for killing 18-year-old Michael Brown, an African American who wasn’t armed — McGinty also empaneled a grand jury to hear evidence. During the closed-door proceeding, however, McGinty recommended the jury not hold the officers liable for what he saw as an understandable error. Garmback was also not charged. That error began and ended with how the officers saw Tamir, says David Harris, a University of Pittsburg law professor and an expert in the concept of “implicit bias,” subconscious racial prejudice that, studies show, makes negative associations with blacks and positive ones with whites. “It exists in people with strongly egalitarian beliefs, with strong believes about fairness and justice,” as well as many African Americans, he says.

“After millions of test administrations — all anonymous — in the U.S., the research is very solid,” Harris says, pointing to the Implicit Associations Test . “What it tells us is, something like three-quarters of all Americans harbor an implicit bias favoring whites,” including 88 percent of all whites and almost half of all blacks.

At the same time, he adds, computerized police simulators show black and white officers are each more likely to open fire on an African American subject they believe is armed, compared to a white subject who is dressed and behaving identically, he says. “The origins of all this — it’s not character driven, it’s not personal,” but is the result of living in a society dominated by whites, he says. “It’s kind of a bath we all take from the first minute we enter society.”

Harris says education, enhanced training and having white officers connect with black citizens are keys to reversing the phenomenon, but Reece says the situation in Ohio is more complex — one that training alone won’t cure.

“If we have an open-carry state, why was it assumed that he was breaking the law?” she says.

[Educator-Gold] CRIME AND CRIMINALS: SEXUAL ASSAULT: Bill Cosby Charged in Sexual Assault Case

Posted on December 30, 2015 by jwneastro

CRIME AND CRIMINALS: SEXUAL ASSAULT:

Bill Cosby Charged in Sexual Assault Case

By Abby Ohlheiser and Niraj Chokshi

December 30, 2015 at 10:24 AM

Washington Post

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/arts-and-entertainment/wp/ 2015/12/30/ap-report-bill-cosby-charged-in-sexual-assault-case/

A shorter URL for the above link:

http://tinyurl.com/pm76y35

Prosecutors charged Cosby with aggravated indecent assault, a felony, First Assistant District Attorney Kevin Steele said in a press conference. The single charge stems from an alleged sexual assault in early 2004.

The felony charge came at the conclusion of a second investigation into allegations that the comedian drugged and assaulted Andrea Constand 12 years ago. Constand first accused Cosby of assaulting her in 2005. At the time, prosecutors declined to press charges.

Prosecutors took a second look at the case this year, based on new information that came to light in July of 2015, Steele said. After establishing that the statute of limitations had not yet expired for the alleged 2004 assault, the investigation was reopened.

Tim McGinty never intended to prosecute the officers who killed Tamir Rice. Will that cost him his job?

Cuyahoga County, Ohio, prosecutor Timothy J. McGintys announcement that a grand jury, at his offices recommendation, declined to file charges against the two officers who killed 12-year-old Tamir Rice surprised almost no one.

McGinty has made no attempt to mask his belief that rookie officer Timothy Loehmann and his partner Frank Garmback committed no crimes on the afternoon of Nov. 22, 2014. Thats the day when Garmback rapidly pulled their police cruiser within inches of Rice at a Cleveland community center and Loehmann jumped out, firing.

In fact, during his press conference, McGinty made numerous mentions of the many risks police officers face, the split-second decisions they have to make to protect their and the publics lives, and how real the toy gun Rice was holding as he played at the park looked.

In what could have been a defense closing argument, McGinty stated that the enhanced surveillance video that captured Rices shooting, and the aftermath in which he lay bleeding and unattended on the ground, while his 14-year-old sister was tackled to the ground by officers, handcuffed and put in the back of a patrol car as she tried to run to him, proved that Rice was indeed drawing his pistol (which was actually a pellet gun) as the officers approached.

And while McGinty called the shooting a tragedy and a perfect storm of miscommunication and human error, he insisted that it did not indicate criminal conduct by the officers.

None of it was unexpected.

McGinty insisted on taking the case to a grand jury, dragging it out for months, despite a judge ruling in June that there was probable cause to charge Loehmann and Garmback with crimes, including involuntary manslaughter, reckless homicide, negligent homicide dereliction of duty and, in Loehmanns case, murder. Attorneys for Rices family cried foul as McGinty allowed the officers to take the oath and read prepared statements to the grand jury with no cross-examination, and he released reports justifying the killing written by outside experts, which the familys attorneys denounced as biased.

Last month, he made disparaging remarks about the Rice family and their lawyers, appearing to accuse them of seeking to profit from the childs death through a pending lawsuit.

And despite his professions of sympathy for the family, including saying he and his staff could see their own children and grandchildren in the face of the now-dead boy, attorneys for Rices family said that prior to telephoning her on Monday to inform her of the grand jury decision, the prosecutor has rarely bothered to communicate with Tamirs mom.

The question now, for those Cleveland residents who are dismayed by the sullen, foregone conclusion of the Rice case, is what they plan to do about it.

McGinty, a Democrat, faces a March primary, in which he will face former assistant prosecutor Michael OMalley, who resigned from the department this spring. OMalley has the backing of at least one prominent black politician: U.S. Congresswoman Marcia Fudge, the former chair of the Congressional Black Caucus, and a onetime Cleveland-area mayor.

UNITED STATES: CITIES: CLEVELAND, OHIO:

The Tamir Rice Case Shows How Prosecutors Twist Grand Juries
to Protect Police

The grand jury process didn’t fail this time. It worked exactly how prosecutors wanted it to that’s the problem.

By Ari Melber

December 29 at 1:40 PM

Ari Melber is MSNBCs chief legal correspondent.

Washington Post

https://www.washingtonpost.com/posteverything/wp/2015/12/29/ in-tamir-rices-case-the-grand-jury-process-was-turned-upside-down/

A shorter URL for the above link:

http://tinyurl.com/h5wv97w

Theres a legitimate debate about whether the Cleveland police officer who killed Tamir Rice, a 12-year-old boy holding a toy pellet gun, should be charged with any crime.

There is really no legal debate, however, that the Ohio prosecutor handling the case, Tim McGinty, turned the grand jury process upside down.

McGinty, who led a year-long inquiry into the shooting, announced Monday that a Cuyahoga County grand jury voted against charging the officers and was candid about helping lead them there: The Grand Jury declined to bring criminal charges, he said. That was also my recommendation, after reviewing the facts and the law.

Grand juries are built to be a tool of prosecutors. They dont hear from both sides in a case, like a trial jury would. They hear only from the prosecutor, who decides what evidence and testimony is presented.

Thats why the old saying goes that a grand jury will indict a ham sandwich if a prosecutor tells them to because the prosecutor calls the shots. That saying, however, assumes the prosecutor wants to prosecute and, ultimately, secure a conviction.

The Rice case strongly suggests that the opposite is also true grand juries will let the sandwich walk, if thats what the prosecutor wants. In this case, McGinty used the grand jury as more of a sounding board for an exoneration of the potential defendants, rather than as a review of possible charges against them.

His 70-page report reads like defense counsel brief, not a neutral assessment of potential charges. (It even has headings like Officers Loehmann and Garmbacks subsequent statements are consistent with the evidence in this case and The incident conforms to the Cleveland Police Departments active shooter policy.)

This approach using the grand jury to review arguments on behalf of potential police defendants, not to prosecute them fits the model of several recent inquiries of police shootings.

Just last week, Texas prosecutors announced that a grand jury declined to charge any Waller County jail officials in the death of Sandra Bland, a 28-year-old woman who was arrested after a routine traffic stop caught on video and was later found dead in her cell. Jail staff said they discovered her hanging by a belt, an apparent suicide. Her family maintains that the circumstances are suspicious.

snip

If that feels like too sweeping a critique, consider more of McGintys own words on Monday: Justice would not be achieved by bringing charges that would violate the ethical canons of our profession because we know these charges could not be sustained.

In other words, McGinty not only decided against charges a judgment call but felt that such charges are so egregiously wrong that filing them against the officers would violate his ethical duties.

snip

At the same time, prosecutors have an obligation to vigorously pursue potential crimes, no matter who commits them. It breeds mistrust and cynicism if the public believes prosecutors apply a different process and set of standards depending on the identity of a suspect.

Cleveland Mayor:
Public Criticism of Criminal Justice System is ‘Legitimate’

CLEVELAND, Ohio — A day after a grand jury declined to indict two Cleveland police officers for the shooting death of 12-year-old Tamir Rice, Mayor Frank Jackson said the public has reason to believe the criminal justice system is unfair.

During a news conference Tuesday at City Hall, Jackson said that people in cities across the country have “a legitimate concern” that grand jury reviews are predetermined and that “they’re just going through the motions.”

But when reporters pushed Jackson to elaborate on whether he felt that was true of the grand jury’s decision not to indict officers Timothy Loehmann and Frank Garmback, the mayor deflected the question — emphasizing that the city’s own administrative review of the November 2014 shooting will follow due process, and that the outcome will not be preordained.

“I’m focused on our process,” Jackson said. “If I comment on [the grand jury decision] one way or the other, it becomes distorted and taints what we do. We are now focused on what we’re doing and ensuring that at its core is due process.”

snip

Williams said he expects the police department’s Critical Incident Review Committee will take less time to complete its analysis of the Tamir Rice case than it took to review the 2012 shooting deaths of Timothy Russell and Malissa Williams.

snip

The mayor emphasized that the committee does not kowtow to pressure from any outside force to draw specific conclusions about a case.

He added, however, that even though the grand jury did not indict Loehmann and Garmback for their roles in Tamir’s death, “there has been a wrong done.”

Guinea was declared free of Ebola transmission on Tuesday after more than 2,500 people died from the virus in the West African nation, leaving Liberia as the only country still counting down the days until the end of the epidemic.

The announcement comes 42 days after the last person confirmed with Ebola tested negative for a second time. The country now enters a 90-day period of heightened surveillance, the U.N. World Health Organization said.

The world’s worst outbreak of the disease began in Gueckedou, eastern Guinea, in December 2013 before spreading to Liberia, Sierra Leone and seven other countries. In all, more than 11,300 people died.

At its height, Ebola sparked fear around the world and caused governments and businesses to take precautions.

“I commend the governments, communities and partners for their determination in confronting this epidemic,” said WHO regional director for Africa, Matshidiso Moeti.

“As we work towards building resilient health care systems, we need to stay vigilant to ensure that we rapidly stop any new flares that may come up in 2016,” Moeti said.

People in the capital, Conakry, greeted the declaration with mixed emotions given the deaths and the damage the virus did to the economy and the country’s health and education sectors.

Ben Carson Needs to Get Over Himself

He can blame his staff, but his campaigns problems have always run much deeper.

Ben Carson appears to suffer from the belief that he is supposed to be the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination.

Its a strange hang-up for a political novice who, until recently, spent his career as a doctor. An excellent doctor, but a doctor. If a renowned doctor wanted to serve as president, sure, theres a way. First that doctor would run for a House or Senate seat, or maybe the governors office. After attaining political experience and fluency in the issues, that doctor could more realistically consider a bid for the highest office in the country. For a doctor to jump straight from the operating room to the part where you run for president of the United States and expect to win, though, is a tall order, and presumes arrogance on the part of the doctor in question.

Carsons candidacy has been a standard bubble campaign in the tradition of, well, most campaigns that werent Mitt Romneys in the 2012 Republican primary cycle. He was a fresh new face who railed against political correctness, appealed to evangelicals, and offered an early respite from the dreaded career politicians. He briefly rose to the top of national and Iowa polls, and then people started asking questions about his background and things such as public policy. It became clear that he was utterly unfamiliar with public policy, and his support fell off a cliff and transferred, in large part, to Sen. Ted Cruz and to Donald Trump. Oh well. Its one of those things that happens; not everyone gets to be president.

snip

I would judge it a wash on the whole and chalk up Carsons decline more to voters gradually realizing that Carson shouldnt be president due to his lack of presidential qualities.

But Carson will never accept that. It is all a plot, coordinated by evil forces, to deny him the promotion from surgeon to president thats so vital for Americas future, as well as his ego. It really is some ego, too!

Tamir Rice’s Family Accuses Prosecutor
of ‘Manipulating’ Grand Jur
to Get Cops out of Indictment For 12-Year-Old’s Death

The family of a 12-year-old black boy shot by police in Ohio is claiming that a prosecutor abused the grand-jury process to ensure that the two officers responsible wouldn’t be indicted.

snip

A week before the grand jury decided not to indict the officers, The New York Times reported that Jonathan S. Abady, a lawyer for Rice’s mother, had already come to expect that no charges would be filed.

“We have never seen a prosecutor try so hard to lose a case,” Abady said.

The grand jury needs only to find that the evidence presents probable cause that a crime has been committed in order to indict a suspect, but Rice’s family claims that McGinty seemed to be working explicitly to convince the grand jury of the officers’ innocence.

Less than two weeks after receiving the case, McGinty released a redacted version of the Cuyahoga County Sheriff’s Department’s investigative report to the public. The Times reported that McGinty believes publicly releasing evidence increases the transparency of the investigation and could help prevent unrest akin to that in Ferguson, Missouri, where evidence was only made available to the public after the decision not to indict the police shooter was announced.

Throughout the grand-jury hearing process, the Rice family attorney, Subodh Chandra, repeatedly expressed frustration with testimony by “so-called experts” hired by McGinty. The testimony of these expert witnesses supported the decisions made by Loehmann and Garmback. Chandra called into question the backgrounds of the experts as well as their familiarity with the details of the case.

Abady claimed that additional expert witnesses provided by Rice’s family to counter McGinty’s experts were “mocked and antagonized” by prosecutors, The Times reported. Furthermore, neither officer involved was cross-examined after reading personal statements to the grand jury.

Rice’s mother’s attorneys demanded McGinty step down from the case, which he refused to do. McGinty seemingly fired back at Rice’s mother and her lawyer by calling them “very interesting people” who “have their own economic motives.” Soon after, McGinty claimed that the statement was not about Rice’s mother.

snip

“It has been clear for months now that Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Timothy McGinty was abusing and manipulating the grand jury process to orchestrate a vote against indictment,” the statement read.

US Rep. Marcia L. Fudge (D-Ohio) released a statement in response to the decision not to indict the officers, in which she said that McGinty’s handling of the case “tainted the outcome.”

“Although the grand jury decision may be the right one, we will never know because the prosecutor refused to step down and allow an independent review,” Fudge wrote. “The prosecutor conducted the investigation in a manner that I believe inappropriate and as a result he has lost the trust and confidence of our community, and, indeed, mine as well.”

UNITED STATES: CITIES: CLEVELAND, OHIO:

Cleveland Officer Will Not Face Charges in Tamir Rice Shooting Death

By TIMOTHY WILLIAMS and MITCH SMITH

December 28, 2015

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/29/us/ tamir-rice-police-shootiing-cleveland.html

A shorter URL for the above link:

CLEVELAND A grand jury declined on Monday to charge a Cleveland patrolman who fatally shot a 12-year-old boy holding a pellet gun, capping more than a year of investigation into a case that added to national outrage over white officers killing African-Americans.

In announcing the decision, Timothy J. McGinty, the Cuyahoga County prosecutor, said he had recommended that the grand jurors not bring charges in the killing of the boy, Tamir Rice, who was playing with the gun outside a recreation center in November 2014.

snip

The shooting in Cleveland came just two days before a grand jury in Missouri declined to indict a white police officer in Ferguson who fatally shot Michael Brown, an unarmed black 18-year-old. The Ferguson case became one of a series of police killings that drew protests in New York, Baltimore, North Charleston, S.C., and other cities by demonstrators denouncing the way the police treat African-Americans.

Though some officers have been charged this year for on-duty killings, in cities including Cincinnati and Baltimore, others have not. Mr. McGinty said that no matter how tragic the circumstances involving Tamirs death, the law gives the benefit of the doubt to officers who must make split-second decisions.

Tamirs family and protesters had criticized the approach of the prosecutor throughout the investigation, which took more than 13 months. The Cleveland police initially investigated the case, then the county sheriffs office conducted its own inquiry. Mr. McGintys office released the results of the sheriffs investigation in June, and months later presented the case to a grand jury.

It has been clear for months now that Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Timothy McGinty was abusing and manipulating the grand jury process to orchestrate a vote against indictment, lawyers for Tamir Rices family said Monday in a statement. Even though video shows the police shooting Tamir in less than one second, Prosecutor McGinty hired so-called expert witnesses to try to exonerate the officers and tell the grand jury their conduct was reasonable and justified.

snip

At a news conference after the prosecutors announcement, Mayor Frank Jackson expressed condolences to the Rice family and said the city would begin an administrative review of the shooting now that the grand jurys work was finished. Mr. Jackson said meaningful changes to the Division of Police had been made since Tamirs death, including efforts to give officers first-aid training and provide basic medical kits in police cars.

This has caused the city of Cleveland, with the loss of a child at the hands of a police officer, to do a lot of soul searching, Mr. Jackson said. And in the midst of that soul searching we have made some changes.

snip

In the Rice case, family lawyers have said for months that they have little confidence that Mr. McGinty wanted the officers charged. The lawyers have called for a special prosecutor in the case and have asked the Justice Department to investigate.

Justice Department officials said Monday that they would continue our independent review of this matter, assess all available materials and determine what actions are appropriate, given the strict burdens and requirements imposed by applicable federal civil rights laws.

Expecting protests in the days ahead, Cleveland officials said they were prepared to allow peaceful demonstrations.

There have already been plans for a response, both at an immediate level and a long protracted struggle, said the Rev. Jawanza Colvin, the pastor of a Cleveland church who signed the affidavits this year seeking the officers arrests.

But Mr. Colvin said Mondays outcome had long been anticipated.

The fact that we are not surprised, he said, is in and of itself an indictment of the culture of the criminal justice system.

How To Predict Bad Cops In Chicago FROM Five Thirty Eight Politics

How To Predict Bad Cops In Chicago

FROM Five Thirty Eight Politics

By Rob Arthur

At the heart of the reaction to the McDonald case are the questions of whether officers like Van Dyke are the exception or the rule, and how much responsibility the police department has to identify and discipline violent officers, as well as those who commit other types of misconduct.

The few bad apples theory of police violence posits that a small portion of the police force is ill-intentioned or inclined to misconduct or violence, while the majority of officers are good cops. Until recently, this theory was difficult for civilians to investigate, but department data on complaints against officers obtained through a legal challenge shows that police misconduct in Chicago is overwhelmingly the product of a small fraction of officers and that it may be possible to identify those officers and reduce misconduct.

This far-reaching data set, a product of the nonprofit Invisible Institutes Citizens Police Data Project, comprehensively covers nearly five years of complaints against Chicago police officers. Each of the 28,588 records in the database offers a detailed account of the incident, including information on the accused officer, the complainant, the type of alleged misconduct, and whether the complaint was found legitimate by an internal investigation. The data is broken into subcategories depending on the specific allegation, but here are the most common types of complaints. (Instances of excessive force, like that alleged in the McDonald case, make up about two-thirds of the category Arrest & Lock-up.)

snip

This data wasnt released without a fight. Jamie Kalven, writer and founder of the Invisible Institute, spent years investigating police misconduct in Chicago public housing projects but was frustrated by the departments failure to release any information on the subject not even its own records of complaints against officers. In collaboration with the University of Chicagos Mandel Legal Aid Clinic, Kalven pursued lawsuits against the department, first forcing the city to release lists of the officers with several complaints against them. The Invisible Institute then filed a series of Freedom of Information Act requests to obtain all complaints against police officers from Jan. 1, 2011, through Dec. 7, 2015. (Efforts to compel the release of still more complaint data are ongoing but are at risk because of legal action by the Fraternal Order of Police.)

The extensive catalog of complaints against officers appears to bear out the theory of a few bad apples: Among the 7,758 police officers who received a complaint during that time period, more than half received less than one per year (officers with zero complaints do not appear in the database). Meanwhile, the bad apples seem to be the ones racking up the grievances.

To avoid the overworked bad apple metaphor, the Invisible Institute prefers to call officers with many complaints against them repeaters. Repeaters only make up a small fraction of the more than 12,000 officers on Chicagos force perhaps 1 percent to 10 percent of the officers in the database, depending on where you draw the line but are responsible for a huge fraction of the complaints: 10 percent of the officers who had received complaints generated 30 percent of the total departmental complaints since 2011. The 10 individual repeaters with the most complaints in the past five years averaged 23.4 complaints against them in that span.

In addition to the outsize number of complaints, Kalven said, repeaters have broader, cultural impacts, both within and outside of the department. Within the department, repeaters might normalize misconduct toward residents, pushing other cops toward wrongdoing. Outside of the department, the behavior of these officers can turn the community against the police. Thats what the few bad apples theory doesnt capture: the kind of compounding, metastasizing arms that flow from the impunity of bad cops, Kalven said.

CHICAGO The gunshots blasted on and on, 45 in all, until Calvin Cross lay dead in a vacant lot. Mr. Cross, 19, had run away after three Chicago police officers pulled alongside him on a South Side street near his house. Bullets hit his chest, arm, back, face and the little finger on his right hand.

The officers, who fired four weapons including an assault rifle that night in May 2011, said that Mr. Cross had fired at them. Investigators found an old revolver several hundred feet from Mr. Crosss path. But tests later showed definitively that the gun was inoperable and did not have Mr. Crosss fingerprints.

Among the officers, part of a special unit that some have accused of aggressive stops and illegal searches and that has since been disbanded, there have been 17 complaints over the years, but none led to discipline. The three were cleared of wrongdoing in Mr. Crosss death, too, and returned to duty.

Nevertheless, the city this year paid Mr. Crosss family $2 million after relatives filed a wrongful-death suit.

One officer reloaded and another one shot at him with two different guns, Dana Cross said of her sons shooting, which she heard from inside her house. I want to know why those officers are still working.

The release last month of a 2014 video showing a Chicago police officer fatally shooting another teenager, Laquan McDonald, has upended this city. The police superintendent, Garry F. McCarthy, was forced out despite a reduction in crime citywide. So was the leader of an authority charged with disciplining officers. The Justice Department has opened an investigation into possible civil rights abuses by the Police Department. Demonstrators call nearly every day for Mayor Rahm Emanuel to resign.

But the Chicago Police Departments record of brutality began long before Mr. McDonald, 17, lay crumpled on Pulaski Road. For decades back to violent clashes at the Democratic National Convention in 1968 and the confessions coerced by a midnight crew of detectives accused of using suffocation, electric shock and Russian roulette on black men in the 1970s and 1980s the Chicago police have wrestled with allegations of torture, racism, weak oversight and a code of silence.

There is a problem in the city of Chicago when an officer who was sworn to serve and protect can gun down a citizen for no other reason than that he was black, the Rev. Marvin Hunter, who was Mr. McDonalds great-uncle, said last week at his church on the West Side. Laquan McDonald represents thousands of Laquan McDonalds same black skin, same poverty, same social and economic injustice that is put upon them, but with different names and different ages.

In Chicago, the nations third-largest city, officers shot and killed 70 people, most of them black, in a five-year span ending in 2014. That was the most among the nations 10 largest cities during the same period, according to the Better Government Association, a nonprofit watchdog organization.

Does a police union contract trump the Illinois Freedom of Information Act?

Chicago’s police unions think so. They’ve gone to court to stop the city from releasing the records of hundreds of thousands of citizen complaints against cops filed before March 2011. They say their collective bargaining agreements require the city to destroy the documents.

What a terrible time to press that argument.

A white Chicago cop is charged with first-degree murder in the death of a black teenager. That officer was named in 20 citizen complaints in five years. Not one of them was sustained.

The U.S. Department of Justice has been called in to review the Police Department’s policies and practices, with special attention to the use of deadly force and patterns of racial discrimination.

A mayoral task force is charged with overhauling a police disciplinary system that almost never finds reason to punish an officer accused of misconduct.

Chicagoans’ trust in their Police Department is badly shaken.

Yet the Fraternal Order of Police, which represents rank-and-file officers, and the Chicago Police Benevolent and Protective Association, which represents higher-ranking officers, want to erase decades worth of records that document complaints against police officers and the resolution of those complaints.

An appellate court judge ruled last year that the information is public under the state Freedom of Information Act. The city released more than 28,000 records dating to March 2011. Independent journalist Jamie Kalven, whose lawsuit led to that ruling, posted the data on his website. You can see it at

http://chicagotribune.com/findings.

Kalven, the Tribune and the Sun-Times want the complete records, dating to 1967, but the unions sued to block that release. They pointed to a provision in their contracts that says the records must be destroyed after five years or seven years if the complaint alleged excessive force or criminal conduct.

The case is working its way back to court via the labor arbitration process. One arbitrator has already agreed with the union representing higher-ranking officers. A second arbitrator is expected to side with the FOP. A court review is virtually certain.

The journalists aren’t seeking the investigative files, only a list of bare details, including the name of the officer, the nature of the complaint and its resolution.

snip

Government transparency cuts both ways. It enhances confidence in the majority of public servants who do their jobs honorably and well. It helps identify and hold accountable the ones who don’t.

If the unions cared about rebuilding trust in the Chicago Police Department, they’d welcome the release of those records. Withholding them from the public serves only one purpose: to protect bad cops.

LEGAL ISSUES:

Chicago’s Next Fight: Trying to Purge Police Misconduct Records

By Rosa Flores and Mallory Simon, CNN

Updated 1:58 AM ET, Sunday December 20, 2015

CNN

http://www.cnn.com/2015/12/18/us/chicago-police-misconduct-records/

Chicago (CNN)How do you make sure police officers are held accountable if most of their full disciplinary records are no longer available?

That question is at the center of what might be the next big battle brewing over police accountability across the country, and specifically in Chicago.

The recent release of videos showing deadly shootings of black citizens by white police officers in Chicago has many demanding police accountability and has led to a U.S. Department of Justice investigation into the patterns and practices of the Chicago Police Department.

And now, there is a legal fight over the destruction of police misconduct records dating back to 1967, the very records that could help the Justice Department review patterns of police misconduct.

The Fraternal Order of Police is demanding that the city of Chicago destroy all police misconduct records more than 5 years old, arguing that keeping them is a breach of its bargaining agreement with the city. The agreement, which is effective from July 1, 2012, to June 30, 2017, says in part: “All disciplinary investigation files, disciplinary history card entries, IPRA (Independent Police Review Authority) and IAD (Internal Affairs Division) disciplinary records, and any other disciplinary record or summary of such records other than records related to Police Board cases, will be destroyed five (5) years after the date of the incident.” If the complaint involves alleged excessive force, it is to be destroyed after seven years, according to the contract.

“You want to talk about a bonfire, stuff going up in smoke,” says University of Chicago law professor Craig Futterman.

Futterman has been fighting for the release of police misconduct records for more than a decade and recently won the release of a small data set, which includes citizen complaints for things like excessive use of force, illegal searches and unlawful arrests. Futterman made the complaints available to the public in a searchable online database.

snip

Futterman says. “But then there was a small percent who got extraordinary numbers of complaints.”

For example, a search for Jason Van Dyke, the officer charged with the first-degree murder in the killing of Laquan McDonald, shows that he had 19 complaints before he fatally shot the teen, including 10 for use of force. The officer who shot and killed Cedrick Chatman has 30 complaints in the system, including 10 for use of force. None of the complaints, for either officer, resulted in disciplinary action. Van Dyke’s attorney says his client feared for his life in his encounter with McDonald. The Chatman shooting was ruled justified.

snip

A judge determined that the city of Chicago “shall not take any steps to delete or destroy any complaint incident data or underlying complaint register files, without providing two weeks’ notice to all parties to these cases.”

“I appeared in court on this seeking an emergency order to stop the destruction, to stop the bonfire of records, and I got a Band-Aid,” Futterman says.

Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan told CNN by email that as part of the Justice Department investigation, “it should have the opportunity to determine whether the records are needed.”

“Common sense would dictate that any records that may be helpful for an investigation should be preserved,” she said.

BLATANT FALSEHOODS:

The Killing of Laquan Mcdonald: The Dashcam Video vs. Police Accounts

By Wayne Drash

CNN

Updated 12:32 AM ET, Saturday December 19, 2015

Video Source: CNN

http://www.cnn.com/2015/12/17/us/ laquan-mcdonald-video-records-comparison/

A shorter URL for the above link:

http://tinyurl.com/p6vyc8z

(CNN) Newly released documents in the Laquan McDonald shooting show how elaborately police appear to have fabricated their version of that moment and how officers stood by each other in verifying the details.

The documents shed new light on just how crucial the release of last month’s video was and how it contradicts nearly everything police said happened when veteran police officer Jason Van Dyke shot and killed the 17-year-old McDonald around 10 p.m. on October 20, 2014.

The dashcam video shows McDonald walking down South Pulaski Road with a knife in his hand, but strolling away from officers when Van Dyke jumps out of his vehicle and pulls his gun. Van Dyke began firing six seconds after arriving on scene and took 15 seconds to fire 16 shots.

In those moments, shortly before he is shot, McDonald never faces Van Dyke. He spins after being shot and crumples to the ground, his body stiff as he falls. Van Dyke continues to fire, unloading every round from his 9-mm Smith & Wesson handgun. The teen was struck by all 16 bullets, most of them while he was limp on the ground.

The teen was accused posthumously of aggravated assault of four officers, including Van Dyke. One police record said Van Dyke was “injured by offender” but provided no further detail.

The police records showed dashcam videos were recovered from at least two police vehicles, including Van Dyke’s, and “found to be consistent with the accounts of all of the witnesses.”

The videos were downloaded for investigators within 24 hours after the shooting.

Recordings from five vehicles were released to the public last month, including the primary dashcam video that shows the shooting, and has led to protests. The city had fought the release for 13 months and only relinquished after a judge ordered its release.

Comparing the officers’ accounts of the moment of the shooting with the video reveals stunning differences and what appears to be a conspiracy to create a scenario in which deadly force would be justified.

The video does not capture all of McDonald’s encounter with the officers.

Officers had begun pursuing McDonald after getting reports of a young black male attempting to break into vehicles at a parking lot for trucks. According to police reports, a man told McDonald to leave the lot and that the teen swung his knife at him. Police soon spotted McDonald and gave chase. At one point, a request was made for a Taser and additional backup ahead of the fatal shooting.

It is possible that some things the officers describe could have occurred before the time frame captured on video. But their accounts of what happen appear to be describing the moments just before the shooting, which the video covers.

An attorney for a white Chicago policeman charged with murder in the shooting death of a black teenager said Friday he will seek a change of venue, arguing that comments Mayor Rahm Emanuel made jeopardize his client’s chances of a fair trial.

Jason Van Dyke appeared at a preliminary court hearing for the first time since a grand jury indicted him earlier this week. He faces six counts of first-degree murder and one of official misconduct in the 2014 shooting death of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald. The judge scheduled his arraignment for December 29.

Release of a video showing Van Dyke shooting McDonald 16 times has triggered persistent protests, forced the resignation of the city’s police chief and put the entire Police Department under a wide-ranging civil rights investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice. A few people confronted Van Dyke as he left the court Friday, shouting profanities and pounding on the black pickup truck in which he departed.

Defense attorney Dan Herbert told reporters at the courthouse that he intends to seek a change of venue because of remarks Emanuel has made in several public appearances. He did not say when he would make the request.

‘The mayor has continued to indict my client in the press and before the City Council for the last couple of weeks,’ Herbert told The Associated Press before the hearing. ‘So I imagine when I bring motion for change of venue, Exhibit A will be all the mayor’s comments.’

The mayor has faced calls to resign from protesters who accuse City Hall, the police and the state’s attorney of a cover-up because the city fought for months to keep the video from being released under the argument that doing so would hinder the investigation into the shooting. At the end of November, a judge ordered the city to make the images public.

During a November 24 news conference to release the video, Emanuel mentioned the officer by name and said it was clear his actions were wrong

At least 42 people were killed across seven states since Wednesday following days of severe weather, including flash floods in Illinois and tornadoes in Texas.

The Marion County, Illinois, Sheriff’s Office said five people were killed Saturday as a major storm system brought flash flooding and blizzard conditions to parts of the United States.

In central Missouri, eight have died in Saturday flooding incidents, officials said. Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon has declared a state of emergency because of the heavy rain.

Two deaths were reported in Alabama, 10 were reported in Mississippi, six were killed in Tennessee and one died in Arkansas.

Meanwhile, 11 died in Texas after several tornadoes were reported in the Dallas area, causing widespread damage to homes and buildings and sending dozens to the hospital.

In Garland, a suburb of Dallas, eight people died Saturday when an EF-4 tornado touched down, the National Weather Service Fort Worth survey team said. EF-4 tornados bring winds over 165 mph.

Three others died in Collin County, police said.

The same tornado that struck Garland hit the neighboring town of Rowlett, where it weakened to an EF-3, meaning its winds were over 135 mph, the NWS Fort Worth survey team said. Twenty-three people were injured and 39 homes were “totally destroyed,” City Manager Brian Funderburk said today.

About 6,000 homes lost power.

Jury Awards Vietnamese Man Shot and Paralyzed

SAN JOSE — In a sign that national concerns about the use of force by police have spread to San Jose, a federal jury here has awarded the largest law enforcement payout in the city’s history — $11.3 million — to a Vietnamese man shot in the back by a San Jose cop last year and paralyzed from the waist down.

The landmark award came Monday afternoon after Hung Lam’s attorneys argued that he was holding a knife but only threatening to hurt himself in early 2014 when officer Dondi West, who wasn’t wearing her glasses, overreacted and fired.

While the city may appeal the landmark award, it also plans to review police practices — as it typically does after such cases — and discuss ways to prevent similar shootings in the future and ease concerns within San Jose’s large Vietnamese community about police use of force.

Lam’s case was bolstered by a key witness who lived next door — retired San Mateo County sheriff’s deputy Helen Anderson — who said West should have taken the time to back off and try to calm the situation, as Anderson herself was trying to do.

City attorneys argued during the three-week trial in U.S. District Court in San Jose that the 25-year veteran patrol officer shot Lam, now 38, out of genuine fear for her life. But the jury found the officer was mostly to blame, and under the law the city is wholly responsible for the damages.

The ethnically diverse eight-member jury, including six Asians but no Vietnamese, decided on $11.3 million in economic and noneconomic damages after the city urged the panel to award only $4 million, while a plaintiff’s expert witness said Lam deserved at least $20 million.

San Jose City Attorney Rick Doyle is now weighing whether to file post-trial motions to reduce the damages or appeal the judgment, which he agreed was influenced by the political “climate nationwide.”

“It’s fairly obvious — there’s a lot of press about police and excessive force,” Doyle said.

The outcome of the three-week trial could also affect the way police handle such calls, which has been of particular concern to many of the more than 100,000 Vietnamese-Americans in San Jose. Doyle said he plans to meet with police officials to discuss “possible changes or responses, lessons learned.”

After conducting a year-long study of police shootings that resulted in death, the Washington Post is reporting that 965 people in the U.S. have been killed by police officers in 2015 nearly three people every day.

According to the Post, only 90 of the shootings occurred when the suspect was unarmed, with the bulk broken down into three categories: the suspect was wielding a weapon of some sort, they were suicidal or mentally troubled, or they attempted to flee when officers ordered them to halt.

Attention has grown over those disparate number since the shooting death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, in 2014 at the hands of police officer Darren Wilson. The death of Brown helped launch the Black Lives Matter movement, calling attention to the perceived racism in the nations police departments and the indifference to the high number of blacks dying at the hands of police in the country

In the majority of cases where police shot and killed a person who had attacked someone or brandished a weapon, the person who was shot was white. However 60 percent of those killed after exhibiting less threatening behavior were black or Hispanic.

While the Posts study only included victims who were shot by police, an earlier study by The Guardian released in late November showed that more than 1,000 people had been killed by police in the shorter period.

Following the shooting death of a man in Oakland on Nov. 15 after he waved a toy gun at officers, the Guardian noted at the time that it was the 883rd fatal shooting by a law enforcement officer 2015. An additional 47 people died as the result of being shocked with an officers Taser, 33 died after being struck by a law enforcement officers vehicle, and another 36 were killed while in custody.

Because deaths at the hands of police have become so prevalent, the Guardian maintains a running calendar called The Calendar listing all police involved deaths.

‘Messed Up’ Police Shooting Kills 2, 1 Accidentally, Sparking Outrage

Jones’ death came on the heels of a family Christmas, relatives told reporters, in which about 15 family members were at her apartment to celebrate the holiday on Dec. 25.

The local anti-violence group Action Now described the shootings as murders in an impassioned statement released Saturday:

Our hearts have been broken anew as we share our condolences to the families of Bettie Jones and Quintanio Legrier. The execution squad, the Chicago Police Department, have stolen two more lives from our community.

Early Saturday morning Chicago police were called to respond to a domestic disturbance. Police shot through an unopened door and killed, Ms. Bettie Jones, mother of five that had just enjoyed a Christmas with her family a few hours beforehand. Officers then turned their weapons onto a young man suffering from mental illness holding a baseball bat.

Bettie Jones, an Action Now member, posed no threat to police officers. She was trying to cooperate. Quintanio Legrier needed obvious psychiatric help. Chicago police officers on the scene executed a mother and her young neighbor.

Recent cases and released videos show a culture of excessive force and a shoot first and cover it up culture within Chicago’s police department. They are killing people, mostly Black people whether or not they cooperate. They are aided by the state’s attorney and mayor’s offices determined to assist officers that abuse and murder the very citizens they are sworn to protect and serve.

We are demanding more than a full and transparent investigation into the murders of Bettie Jones and Quintanio Lagrier. We are demanding authentic justice. The so-called “criminal justice” system is a farce, when people who are supposed to protect have become the perpetrators. The entire system needs to be changed, from the racist, unjust policies to the people who enforce them.

The group BYP 100 is holding a vigil for Bettie Jones at 2 p.m. Sunday at the intersection of Erie Street and Kilpatrick Avenue.

Jahmal Cole, a Chicagoan who says Bettie Jones was his wife’s aunt, wrote a somber response to the shooting on Facebook Saturday night urging readers not to hate CPD:

My wife’s aunt, Bettie Jones, was shot and killed today by Chicago Police. I do not know all the details surrounding the shooting, but I do know that Bettie was a good spirited person, and she touched the lives of many people. I’m tempted to be filled with hatred and distrust for all Police because the injustice of such an act, but I know we have to make an effort to get beyond these difficult times in our City. What we need in Chicago is not division, hate or violence. What we need in Chicago is compassion toward one another and a feeling of justice toward those that still suffer in our City. Whether they live in North Lawndale or River North. Austin or the Gold Coast. ?#?MyBlockMyHoodMyCity

A Chicago police officer responding to a domestic disturbance call accidentally shot and killed a 55-year-old woman, who was among two people fatally wounded by police gunfire, according to officials with the department that’s already facing intense scrutiny.

Grieving relatives and friends of the two victims said Sunday that the slayings raised concerns about why officers “shoot first and ask questions later” and that law enforcement had failed the city’s residents.

snip

Antonio LeGrier said police later told him that Quintonio LeGrier was shot seven times, and that he had called 911 before his father did.

Chicago police referred The Associated Press’ requests for additional comment to the Independent Police Review Authority, the city’s main police oversight agency. A spokesman for the authority, Larry Merritt, said it was “very early on in the investigation” and couldn’t release further details Saturday. It isn’t known when the medical examiner’s office will do autopsies, which would determine how many times LeGrier and Jones were shot.

Antonio LeGrier told the Sun-Times that his son had emotional problems after spending most of his childhood in foster care. LeGrier described his son as a “whiz kid” and said he was home on break from Northern Illinois University, where he majored in electrical engineering technology.

LeGrier’s mother, Janet Cooksey, told the Chicago Tribune that police didn’t have to react the way they did.

“We’re thinking the police are going to service us, take him to the hospital. They took his life,” said Cooksey, who was not present at the time of the shooting. She said she wants a personal apology from Emanuel.

CHICAGO (WLS) —

A 55-year-old woman is remembered by friends, family and her community after being accidentally shot and killed by Chicago police while celebrating Christmas with her family at her home in West Garfield Park.

snip

Police have acknowledged that Jones was shot accidentally. She was shot in the chest, according to autopsy results. However, families for both victims are demanding answers, questioning whether the shooting was warranted.

“She should not have had to open her door and be shot down by a Chicago police officer,” said Jones’ nephew, Jahmal Cole, during a Sunday press conference.

snip

A stead stream of ministers and elected officials, including Rev. Jesse Jackson, came to the neighborhood to offer their condolences to the victims’ families. Rev. Jackson called on President Obama to intervene.

Activists accused Mayor Rahm Emanuel and the police department of failing black communities and demanded justice. Mayor Emanuel released a statement Sunday afternoon, directing a review of and changes to police crisis intervention team training.

“This afternoon I directed the new Acting Chief Administrator of the Independent Police Review Authority and the Interim Superintendent of Police to meet with each other as soon as possible to review the Crisis Intervention team training, around how officers respond to mental health calls. I have asked that they determine the deficiencies in the current training, and determine what steps can be taken immediately to address them,” the statement said in part.

snip

Jones’ daughters hired an attorney Sunday morning and plan to file a lawsuit.

Cooksey said LeGrier’s father was meeting with an attorney on Sunday.

New policy implemented by the interim police superintendent after other police-involved shootings were called into question, requires officers involved in shootings to be on administrative duties for 30 days.

Chicago Congressman Bobby Rush also released a statement in response Saturday’s shootings.

“Why weren’t tasers used in this incident?” the statement read. “Why were shots fired before other de-escalating tactics were employed? Why does shooting someone to death seem to be the default tactics of the city’s police force? These questions and many others require immediate answers.”

UNITED STATES: CITIES: CHICAGO, ILLINOIS:

‘Justice’ Demanded by Supporters Of 2 Shot to Death by Chicago Police

By Holly Yan, Chandler Friedman and Pat St.Claire,

CNN

Updated 5:41 PM ET, Sunday December 27, 2015 |

Video Source: CNN

http://www.cnn.com/2015/12/27/us/chicago-police-shooting/

(CNN) Family members and supporters of two people shot to death by Chicago police blamed bad leadership and a police culture of “shoot first and ask questions later” for the deaths of 55-year-old Bettie Jones and 19-year-old Quintonio LeGrier.

“What about the Tasers?” asked Jacqueline Walker, a friend of Jones, as she joined a crowd Sunday afternoon in front of the residence where the shootings happened. “Taser him down, don’t start shooting people, innocent people.”

Police said an officer shot LeGrier, who was carrying a metal bat and acting in a “combative” manner, early Saturday morning while responding to a call about a domestic disturbance. Jones, a neighbor, was “accidentally struck and tragically killed,” police said.

The shootings come as police in Chicago and across the nation are being scrutinized for the use of deadly force.

LeGrier’s mother, Janet Cooksey, said Sunday that police shot her son seven times, once in buttocks. That meant he was turning away, she said.

“This needs to stop,” Cooksey said, tears streaming down her face as she addressed reporters.. “No mother should have to bury her child, especially under these circumstances. The police are supposed to serve and protect us.”

She was surrounded by supporters, some who wore T-shirts saying “Rahm failed us,” referring to Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, currently in Cuba on a 10-day vacation with his family.

“When is the mayor going to step up?” she asked. “When are we going to get some help?”

Standing outside a modest home with beige siding and white-trimmed windows, several other people echoed Cooksey’s sentiments.

Jahmal Cole, who described himself as a spokesman for the organization My Block, My Hood, My City, said he is Jones’ nephew.

“What happened should matter to everyone,” he declared. “Everyone was celebrating Christmas like any other family. She should not have to be shot down just coming to the door. Your family does not want to wake up to news like this.”

snip

‘Where was the Taser?’

Cheryl Dorsey, a retired Los Angeles police sergeant and law enforcement consultant for CNN, said people are right to ask why police didn’t use non-deadly force, such as stun guns.

“Where was the Taser?” she said. “Why didn’t they deploy a Taser? If they didn’t have one on scene, they should have had one with an officer who was responding as backup. What was the urgency? There was no exigent circumstance that the officers could not have waited until a Taser arrived on scene.”

Dorsey said an aluminum bat could cause injury but “is not a deadly force.”

She said “deadly force should have been used (by police) as a last resort and not a first resort.”

CHICAGO (WLS) —

The 55-year-old woman who was accidentally shot by Chicago police was celebrating Christmas with her family at her home in West Garfield Park when the shooting occurred.

Bettie Jones, 55, a grandmother, was killed early Saturday when police responded to a 911 call from a father who lived in the same building about his 19-year-old son acting erratic and wielding an aluminum bat, police said. The teen, Quintonio LeGrier, was also killed when police opened fire. Jones was the downstairs tenant in the building.

“She should not have had to open her door and be shot down by a Chicago police officer,” said Jones’ nephew, Jahmal Cole, during a Sunday press conference.

The mother of five, who loved church and music, will be remembered during a vigil at 2 p.m. Sunday in front of the apartment where Jones was killed in the 4700-block of West Erie in the West Garfield Park neighborhood.

Cole added that while it’s tempting to feel hatred for police, he said it’s time for better communications between police and the community. He said community members need to also step up.

“I do believe that people need to join block clubs and know their neighbors,” Cole said. “I think we need to show compassion for life in Chicago.”

LeGrier, the 19-year-old who was fatally shot, was a Northern Illinois University student. His mother, Janet Cooksey, said he had a mental illness, but said he was never violent. She said her son was shot seven times, including once in the buttocks. The Cook County Medical Examiner’s office confirmed Sunday that he was shot multiple times.

Police said LeGrier was charging downstairs toward police with the bat.

“When is the mayor going to step up because we can’t get no help from the police,” Cooksey said during the press conference. “CPD has failed us over and over.”

The family of a 55-year-old woman who Chicago police say was “accidentally” shot and killed by an officer early Saturday described her as a loving person who enjoyed music and church.

Bettie Jones, a 55-year-old grandmother, was enjoying a Christmas celebration the night before she was shot, Jahmal Cole, the husband of Jones’ niece, said at a news conference today.

“This is not the time for hatred,” Cole said, instead calling it a time for “compassion.”

Jones will be honored with a vigil this afternoon in front of the West Erie Street apartment where she was killed, according to ABC station WLS-TV in Chicago.

Janet Cooksey, who said her son was the 19-year-old killed in the shooting, said he wasn’t an “angry” or “violent” child.

“No mother should have to bury her child,” she said at a news conference.

The incident is being investigated by the Independent Police Review Authority, police said, and officers involved will be placed on routine administrative duties for 30 days.

The shooting comes amid a federal civil rights investigation into the Chicago Police Department that’s looking into how the department disciplines officers as well as patterns of racial disparity in the use of force.

The investigation began after dash cam video was released last month showing white Chicago police officer Jason Van Dyke shooting black 17-year-old Laquan McDonald 16 times in Oct. 2014. Van Dyke allegedly kept firing after McDonald already hit the ground.

The video’s release led to the resignation of Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy and calls for Mayor Rahm Emanuel to step down.

A Chicago police officer arriving at the scene of a domestic disturbance fatally shot two people on Saturday, including a 55-year-old mother of five who authorities said was accidentally struck and tragically killed.

In a statement released Saturday offering scant detail, Chicago police said they were confronted by a combative subject that resulted in the discharging of the officers weapon.

But the families of Bettie Jones, who had just hosted relatives for Christmas, and Quintonio LeGrier, 19, a college student home for holiday break, say police violently overreacted to a controllable situation, according to CBS-affiliate WBBM-TV.

Both individuals were pronounced dead at hospitals within an hour of being shot, according to the Associated Press.

He wasnt just a thug on the street, he was an honor student in college and high school, LeGriers mother, Janet Cooksey, told WBBM-TV. Seven bullets were put in my son. Seven.

Eight shots were fired, she added tearfully. One hit an innocent lady who was just opening her door. Something is wrong with this picture.

The deaths arrive while the Chicago Police Department is being scrutinized by the Justice Department, which has opened a wide-ranging investigation into whether the departments practices contribute to civil rights violations. The investigation was launched after the release of video last month showing white officer Jason Van Dyke shooting 17-year-old Laquan Macdonald, who was black. The footage led to murder charges for Van Dyke and the resignation of the citys police chief.

The medical examiners office confirmed that Jones and LeGrier were black, but police have not revealed the race of the officer, according to the AP. The statement released by the department said the officers involved will be placed on administrative duties for 30 days while training and fitness for duty requirements can be conducted.

Mayor Rahm Emanuels office released a statement after the shooting as well.

Anytime an officer uses force the public deserves answers, and regardless of the circumstances, we all grieve anytime there is a loss of life in our city, the statement read.

All evidence will be shared with the Cook County States Attorneys Office for additional review in the days ahead.

Relatives told the Chicago Tribune that the incident began when LeGrier who had suffered from severe mood swings in recent months grew agitated and picked up an aluminum bat while he was in his fathers upstairs apartment. Hoping to defuse the situation, LeGriers father called police.

NEW DELHI: Even as India signed a Rs. 98,000-crore pact with Japan for a high-speed bullet train linking Mumbai and Ahmedabad, the on-time performance of the country’s express trains remains a challenge, especially during winters.

A shortage of dedicated tracks for goods and passenger trains in the country, withering infrastructure and inbuilt inefficiencies in the railways are leading to regular delays of its express trains, including its most prestigious ones. The winter fog does no ..

According to former railway minister Dinesh Trivedi of Trinamool Congress, unless a dedicated freight corridor is started, there wouldn’t be enough money available to invest in running passenger trains on time.

“Our railway is in a financial crisis and the operating ratio (company’s operating expenses as a percentage of revenue) is 110 percent. We don’t have enough money to even replace the old assets like the tracks, signals or locomotives,” Trivedi told IANS.

He said he was not against bullet trains, but the railways were falling short of Rs 25,000 crore every year. “Had I been the minister I would have given more money to the dedicated freight corridor. This would have helped the economy. The bullet trains will only help the Japanese economy,” Trivedi said.

A quick survey by IANS showed that express trains were running late between 14 minutes and seven hours. The Mumbai-Central-New Delhi Rajdhani Express was late by 15 minutes on December ..

Among the other trains, the Saraighat Express (Guwahati to Howrah) was 14 minutes late on December 20, 14 minutes late on December 21 and 40 minutes late on December 22. The Lucknow Swarna Shatabdi Express (New Delhi to Lucknow) was late by 1:03 hours on December 21, by one hour on December 22, 15 minutes on December 23 and 55 minutes on December 24.

Sound Transit formulating ballot proposal for November 2016

Tacoma possibilities include streetcar along South 19th Street, inter-city rail to mall

Ballot question could set a 25-year, $48-billion regional transit plan

When President Obama signed a $305 billion highway bill this month, he reauthorized a grant program that is being leaned on for nearly half the $153 million cost of the Tacoma Link expansion through the Hilltop neighborhood to South 19th Street. A subsequent budget deal meant the projects $75 million federal grant had officially cleared Congress, bringing construction of the long-awaited streetcar segment closer.

Before that project ever breaks ground, Sound Transit is working up plans to ask the regions voters to approve another long-term plan that could include stretching the Tacoma Link line even farther: 3.7 miles straight west on South 19th Street to Tacoma Community College.

A separate project under consideration would stretch plans for city-to-city light rail, the Link train, beyond the Tacoma Dome station to the Tacoma Mall, making it possible to ride the train from the geographic center of the city to Sea-Tac Airport and Seattle.

With Tacoma projected to gain 127,000 new residents in the next 25 years a 62 percent increase over its current population Sound Transits estimates say that if built, each of the two proposed projects would carry 6,000 to 8,000 riders daily.

Their combined price tag for 7.1 miles of new urban rail would be more than $1.5 billion, about 10 times the money being spent to bring the citys streetcar line from 1.6 miles of downtown to a four-mile circuit serving mixed-use and residential neighborhoods.

Planning documents say those projects have the potential to help shape the growing city, from reducing car traffic to encouraging denser pedestrian-oriented development.

In the real world, they face several hurdles.

No Way to Run a Railroad

Increase in hazardous cargo calls for more effort to prevent accidents

Sunday December 27, 2015 5:20 AM

Increasing oil production in the United States has helped bring down costs and make America more energy-independent. Without updated infrastructure to handle the transport of this oil, though, the boom has come with a price: more potentially hazardous and life-threatening spills, including in densely populated areas around Columbus.

A derailment and explosion of ethanol-carrying train cars near the Ohio State Fairgrounds in July 2012 is just one of dozens of crashes and spills that have happened across the country in the past five years. In looking at these incidents, Dispatch reporters Rick Rouan and Laura Arenschield found in reporting their three-part series Wrong Track earlier this week that two-thirds of them were caused by human error and track defects; investigators determined that the accident near the fairgrounds three years ago was caused by a broken rail.

snip
.

So what to do? So far, government regulators have focused largely on upgrading rail cars to make them less likely to spill their contents in the event of a crash. These new requirements will mean about $1.7 billion in upgrades to tanker cars.

But that doesnt get at the root of the problem.

If the car stays on the track, Im pretty sure absolutely nothing happens, said Brigham McCown, former director of the U.S. Department of Transportations Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration. The first question you always ask is not how to reduce the consequences of the accident, but how do you keep the accident from happening in the first place.

Tracks are not inspected and repaired often and well enough.

Railroads and Regulators Resist Providing Details

Columus (Ohio) Dispatch

Posted December 26, 2015 at 12:01 AM

Journal Star

http://www.pjstar.com/article/20151226/NEWS/151229556

Information that state and federal government agencies collect about train derailments, particularly those that cause crude oil spills, is, at best, difficult for the public to see.

Huge amounts of data about collisions, derailments and other mishaps that happen along railroads in the United States are collected every year.

Some of it is compiled by the industry and distributed directly to the public upon request. But some is buried in databases that government officials are slow to release, if they release at all.

For example, the U.S. Department of Transportation requires railroads to submit annual reports to state emergency response officials estimating how many trains carrying crude oil from the Bakken shale region pass through each county.

Yet in many states, the public is not allowed to see those reports.

A request by The Columbus Dispatch to see those reports in Ohio went unanswered for months.

When the request was answered, only reports from two of three railroads that move crude oil from the Bakken oil fields were provided by the State Emergency Response Commission. The third was supplied only after The Columbus Dispatch pointed out the discrepancy.

In some instances, railroads have sued to try to keep reports secret. Some states allow the public to review only limited information from those reports.

In Illinois, for example, the state emergency response commission provided to The Dispatch railroad reports that included the number of crude oil trains traveling through each county but redacted the specific rail lines.

In the report West Virginia officials released, counties where crude oil moves by rail were blacked out as were specific rail lines amounts of crude oil hauled. Melissa Cross, coordinator of West Virginias State Emergency Response Commission, said the state lets the railroad decide what information should be made public.

That is what the CSX determines to be proprietary and confidential information, and it is our policy that we do not release confidential and proprietary information, Cross said.

Mike Webster

From Wikipedia

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Webster

Michael Lewis “Mike” Webster (March 18, 1952 September 24, 2002) was an American football player who played as a center in the National Football League from 1974 to 1990 with the Pittsburgh Steelers and Kansas City Chiefs. He is a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, class of 1997. Nicknamed “Iron Mike”, Webster anchored the Steelers’ offensive line during much of their run of four Super Bowl victories from 1974 to 1979 and is considered by some as the best center in NFL history.[1]

Webster died at the age of 50 after experiencing dementia. Since his death, he has become a symbol for head injuries in the NFL and the ongoing debate over player safety.[2] His exact cause of death was first announced to be a heart attack by the Steelers’ management, but this was later recanted. Webster’s cause of death has not been released from the hospital at his family’s request. His doctors were of the opinion that multiple concussions during his career damaged his frontal lobe, which caused cognitive dysfunction.

The Autopsy That Changed Football

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/article/the-autopsy-that-changed-football/

As a neuropathologist, Omalu was especially interested in the brain. Inside Mike Websters brain, hed make a startling discovery: a disease never previously identified in football players. The condition, known as chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE, was the first hard evidence that playing football could cause permanent brain damage. Players with CTE have battled depression, memory loss, and in some cases dementia.

I had to make sure the slides were Mike Websters slides, Omalu told FRONTLINE. I looked again. I saw changes that shouldnt be in a 50-year-old mans brains, and also changes that shouldnt be in a brain that looked normal.

Omalu published his findings, believing NFL officials would want to know more. They didnt. In public, league doctors assailed his research. Omalus conclusions confused the medical literature, they argued. In a rare move, they demanded a retraction.

He’s a center. It’s the toughest position probably on the field. He’s one of the smartest guys on the field.

He was incredibly smart. And to see his brain declining years later was such a sad thing, because he was incredibly smart, and what I’ve said — the boys have this gift that they see detail that no one else picks up on, and Mike had that gift.

Like in the line several times he would see somebody flex, move, and he could draw them offsides just by body movement or position or what. He knew it so well. Plus he knew where everything was at the right time, you know, when he was on the line. And if you look for that in old films, you see him noticing something like this, and then turning around to [Terry] Bradshaw and telling him to change the play. I mean, he was a master at the game. I have no more respect for any football player than Mike.

Steelers legendary center Mike Webster was simply not himself after his career ended. He played 17 years in the NFL, some said it was a few years too many, especially the final ones with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Struggles adjusting to life after football is a common issue with former players, and Webster, the last of the four-ring Steelers from the 1970s, had a tougher time than most. Bad investment deals drained his assets and his rising anger and confusion, according to his wife, led to fits of rage.

They eventually cost him his marriage. Indirectly, football was his life, and it was what cost him his life.

According to a recently published book, “League of Denial: The NFL, Concussions, and the Battle for Truth,” the autopsy on Mike Webster, who died at age 50 after a heart attack, revealed chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE. The book’s author,

Webster was examined by Allegheny Medical coroner’s office pathologist Bennet Omalu, the Nigerian-born discoverer of what is fairly considered one of the most important issues in sports today; CTE.

Limiting the medical jargon, when a brain suffers a direct injury, proteins form around the affected area. Those proteins are seen through a microscope as red specs. Healthy brain cells will eventually devour those proteins, but in cases like Webster’s, the proteins eventually overwhelm the amount of healthy brain cells available to clear the brain.

Omalu described Webster’s brain as one of “boxers, very old people with Alzheimer’s disease or someone who had suffered a severe head wound.”

It was Dr. Omalu who discovered severe brain damage in Webster at the Allegheny County coroners office.

Its a long and winding story, one that Jeanne Marie Laskas captured well for GQ in 2009.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette first wrote of Websters health and financial problems in 1997. We dug the story out of our library and published it online for the first time. Its an insightful read about the downward spiral that led to his early death and was likely caused or made worse by chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE.

Those letters are now all too familiar to the National Football League, but that has only become the case within the past decade.

This page is filled with links to Post-Gazette stories illustrating Pittsburghs connection to the story of the NFL and brain damage (and now the Will Smith movie filmed in and around the city).

Mike Webster, 50, Dies; Troubled Football Hall of Famer

Mike Webster, whose Hall of Fame pro football career was followed by more than a decade of physical and psychological turmoil apparently brought on by repeated blows to the head on the field, died yesterday in a Pittsburgh hospital. He was 50.

The cause of death was a heart attack, the Pittsburgh Steelers said. Webster played center for 15 seasons (1974-88) for the Steelers and two seasons (1989-90) for the Kansas City Chiefs. In 1997, he was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio, and in 2000 he was named to the National Football League’s all-time team.

Webster was a pivotal player on the standout Steeler teams that captured four Super Bowl championships in the 1970’s. He was an undersized 225-pound center at the University of Wisconsin who lingered in the N.F.L. draft until the fifth round, when he was selected by the Steelers. He transformed himself into a 260-pound tough-minded professional, a man known as Iron Mike who played bare-armed in freezing weather and helped set the tone for a Pittsburgh offense that included the future Hall of Famers Terry Bradshaw, Franco Harris, Lynn Swann and John Stallworth.

Of the 22 players who were part of all four Steeler Super Bowl teams, Webster was the last to leave and the first to die.

”I couldn’t have been the player I was without him,” Bradshaw said. ”He was so smart, so prepared for everything we would face in a game. We all worked hard, but none as hard as Mike did.”

Chuck Noll, his Steelers coach, said, ”He was very smart, a great technician.”

But Webster’s transition to post-football life was filled with setbacks. He increasingly lived away from home, sometimes sleeping in his car. His marriage broke up. He lost money in bad investments. He was often reclusive.

Why Will Smith’s ‘Concussion’ May Actually Impact The NFL

Sony announced yesterday that it will be offering free admission for all NFL players to see their upcoming Will Smith drama Concussion. The film, which opens tomorrow in wide release, is about the doctor who first discovered a link between playing football and long-term brain damage.

It is a comparatively small issue movie and one where would-be action can be taken through explicit inaction. The film deals with an issue that has no party line and can be clearly and rationally explained be through the film itself or the copious articles that have been written about the subject. Even if the film doesnt become a box office hit and/or doesnt make much of an impact at the Oscars (which it probably wont), every bit of media coverage surrounding the film spreads awareness of its rather simple issue.

snip

That incendiary anti-Sea World documentary was released by Magnolia in the summer of 2013 where it made a whole $2 million at the domestic box office. But the media covered the film to a disproportionate degree and said articles conveniently listed the worst charges and would-be offenses discussed in the documentary in question. If people read about the movie or saw the movie, all they had to do to do something was not go to Sea World.

And two years later, SeaWorlds profits have plunged 84%, the park has made major changes to its animal shows and to how it procures and treats said animals. The very brand of Sea World has become something of a pariah, to the point where Walt Disney and Pixars Finding Dory made a point to note that they were changing the ending of said sequel so that it no longer involved a Sea World type establishment. So it was not the documentary itself that changed hearts-and-minds, but rather the media coverage of the documentary which reached a broader audience than the original text and provided something of a cheat sheet in regards to the specific outrages which required inaction.

Yes, I did type inaction. Its easier for people to take a firm stand when all they have to do is not do something. So it is with Concussion, a film which deals with the serious and life-threatening dangers of playing football. It is presumably an issue with no partisan divide beyond agree or disagree. The film hopes to make money and win acclaim, but its secondary (if not primary) purpose is to spread awareness of its specific issue on a national stage. And every article, news report, or related quasi-marketing for the film furthers that mission.

If Concussion has an impact, or plays a part in said impact either in making the NFL less popular or (heaven forbid) moving the organization towards improving the safety of their current players, it will be as much through media coverage of the film as it will be through the film itself. Call it the Facebook Effect or what-have-you. But Concussion may actually make a difference because it doesnt require government action or even civilian action. All civilians have to do to voice their opposition is to not watch football and not play football.

The Yurok Tribe Californias largest tribe with roughly 5,000 enrolled members passed a historic ban on genetically modified (GMOs) crops and salmon.

The Yurok Tribal Council unanimously voted on Dec. 10 to enact the Yurok Tribe Genetically Engineered Organism (GEO) Ordinance:

The Tribal GEO Ordinance prohibits the propagation, raising, growing, spawning, incubating or releasing genetically engineered organisms (such as growing GMO crops or releasing genetically engineered salmon) within the Tribes territory and declares the Yurok Reservation to be a GMO-free zone. While other Tribes, such as the Dine (Navajo) Nation, have declared GMO-free zones by resolution, this ordinance appears to be the first of its kind in the nation.

The announcement, as the release notes, came on the heels of the U.S. Food and Drug Administrations (FDA) approval of genetically engineered AquAdvantage salmon in November. The controversial fishdubbed Frankenfish by opponentsis genetically altered to grow to market size in half the time of conventional salmon.

The 56,585-acre Yurok Reservation is located in Humboldt and Del Norte counties in the far northwest of California along a 44-mile stretch of the Klamath River. For thousands of years, the river has been a crucial source for fishing, mostly for salmon.

AGRICULTURE GENETICALLY MODIFIED CROPS (GMO OR GMOS):

It’s Practically Impossible to Define “GMOS”

Nathanael Johnson

Originally published on Grist.

Vox

http://www.vox.com/2015/12/26/10653372/gmos-definition

Debates rage over what to do about genetically modified organisms, but we rarely stop to ask a more basic question: Do GMOs really exist? Its an important question, because no one in this debate can tell you precisely what a GMO is. Ive come to the conclusion that “GMO” is a cultural construct. Its a metaphor we use to talk about a set of ideas. It doesnt map neatly onto any clear category in the physical world.

GMOs, like other cultural constructs think of gender or race do have a basis in reality, of course: We can roughly define “male” or “Asian,” but when we try to regulate these divisions, all kinds of problems crop up. And definitions of “GMOs” are much messier “nerd” might be a roughly equivalent category. You know what a nerd is, but things would break down fast if you were required to label and regulate all the nerds. The definition of a nerd depends on the context; it depends on whos asking. Same with GMOs.

As one researcher put it, “It is theoretically and practically impossible to precisely specify a supposed common denominator for all these [GMO] products.”

This causes real problems. People argue about GMOs because they are worried about safety, or environmental integrity, or human rights. But because the category is so porous, any policy governing “GMOs” whether encouraging or discouraging them can work directly against those values.

By now you are probably protesting that youve seen definitions that work well enough. (Ive doubtless taken a stab at providing one at some point.) But lets zoom in to take a look at how well those definitions fare in practice.

Topics Covered in This Article

Definition: Moving genes from one species to another

Definition: Anything that couldnt occur naturally

Nature is a genetic engineer

Definition: Genetic modification done by humans

We cant strictly define GMO, but we know it when we see it

UNITED STATES: CITIES: RENO, NEVADA:

Police and Social Workers Team To Help The Troubled

Updated: Friday 6:25 AM, December 25, 2015

http://www.kolotv.com/home/headlines/ Cop-Social-Workers-Team-To-Help-The-Troubled-363501351.html

A shorter URL for the above link:

http://tinyurl.com/os3kj43

RENO, NV – Police have surrounded an apartment house on Evans Avenue. Responding to a neighborhood dispute, they’ve evacuated other residents, but there’s an armed man standing outside. They want him to go back inside and pick up the phone.

The man on the other end of that call will be Reno Police Officer Travis Warren, a trained negotiator and a member of the Mobile Outreach Safety or MOST Team. His aim is a peaceful resolution to what could be a violent situation, and that begins, he says, with listening.

“Something has put them in a situation where they feel like they have no other option,” says Warren. “So listening, asking open-ended questions, leads to understanding and then it can work toward a peaceful resolution.”

Warren has a head start in this case. The MOST team has had contact with 67-year-old Graham Bishop before.

“It helps to build rapport. The person doesn’t necessarily have to repeat their story which sometimes leads to frustration.”

The MOST team consists of Warren and three social workers. They respond to situations like this anywhere in the county, but most of their work is finding, reaching out to troubled people, getting them help before it reaches this point.

The complete article may be read at the URL above.

Tourism Big Business for Small Cities

Well removed from the hip city districts that sell it by name only, authenticity is given out by the handful in rural towns.

For Clark Countys small cities, attracting visitors means cranking up the charm and letting the towns do the talking. The benefits of tourism will follow.

(Our) collaborative efforts tend to be primarily event-based, to draw visitors on a regular basis to some of the great spaces and places in Ridgefield, said Ridgefield City Manager Steve Stuart.

Clark County isnt a hard sell for tourists parks, wineries, mountains, history, rivers, and wildlife abound.

Getting people into Vancouver isnt too tough, either, with restaurants, the fort, museums and more beckoning the passer-by to stay a while.

But in rural towns, its art walks, Fourth of July celebrations, hometown holidays and heritage days by a dozen different names, these are the things that get north- and east-county cities on the map.

From my experience, were talking about events here in Camas and Washougal (for tourism), said Brent Erickson, executive director of the Camas-Washougal Chamber of Commerce. Theres a lot of things happening. People are coming in.

As yearly events like Camas Days and Battle Grounds Harvest Days turn into tradition, business organizations and city councils are the first to line up in their support.

In 2014 we hired an events coordinator to help lead implementation of the councils initiative to create more opportunities to bring people to Ridgefield, Stuart said.

The nonprofit Center for Rural Affairs says tourism can be a big part of developing small towns without changing their character.

Rural communities can be successful for being exactly who they are, writes Joanne Steele, a rural marketing professional. Rural tourism is about community and economic development.

Cuba Prepares for Tourism Boom

HAVANA, CUBA (WSVN) — The new era in U.S., Cuba relations will mean a growing number of Americans will travel to the island, but the next question is if the island ready.

With all the historic changes between the United States and Cuba, tourists are setting their sights on a tropical getaway, however, Cuba’s infrastructure isn’t used to so many people.

Plane after plane, passenger after passenger are landing at Havana’s Jose Marti International Airport. More than 100 flights from 25 countries touching down, leaving thousands of tourists and locals to deal with crowded terminals and customs areas. Some were waiting for more than four hours for their luggage and to go through customs. “You have to have a lot of strength to come here because the stress you go through to come to this country is hellish, pardon the phrase,” said tourist Aymara Ramirez through a translator.

Now, as the U.S. and Cuba have agreed to restore regular airline travel after half a century, there will be even more pressure on the airport’s aging infrastructure.

And that’s not all. There’s limited hotel space, a lack of services and all those things that strain government resources are presenting a challenge to meet the expected increased demand. “I have started to prepare now for a new tourism that is entering the country,” said business owner Fidel Francisco Miret through a translator. “There have been new doors opening and too many tourists coming and sometimes there are no places to stay.”

” The 76 cookbooks selected for Feeding America: The Historic American Cookbook Project are from MSU’s Cookery Collection, which totals more than 10,000 cookbooks and spans seven centuries. The collection, housed in Special Collections – a division of the MSU Library, features cookbooks written in many different languages from throughout the world

It is especially strong in early English cookery and in nineteenth and twentieth-century American cookbooks, thanks to two major gifts: the Mary Ross Reynolds Cookery Collection, and the Beatrice V. Grant Cookbook Collection. There is an important collection of Jewish cookbooks, and an effort is underway to collect community cookbooks, especially those with Michigan origins. Related to this is the Michigan Cookbook Project, an initiative to collect all cookbooks produced by groups and organizations with ties to Michigan.

Recently a new direction for collecting has been regions related to the African diaspora. As a result, there are growing collections of African-American cookery, Caribbean cookery, South American cookery, and West and Central African cookery. Besides cookbooks, the collection includes substantial numbers of cookery and food related ephemera, menus, and serial holdings.”

Gas Tanker in Nigeria Explodes, Killing Dozens

By TONY IYARE and AUSTIN RAMZY

December 25, 2015

New York Times

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/26/world/africa/nigeria-gas-blast.html

LAGOS, Nigeria A tanker truck exploded outside an industrial plant in rural southeastern Nigeria, killing dozens of people who had lined up for gas to cook their Christmas meals, the authorities announced on Friday.
From Our Advertisers

The explosion occurred on Thursday afternoon in the city of Nnewi, in Anambra State, according to Chuma Ibeabuchi, the local secretary of the Nigerian Red Cross Society. The inferno sent plumes of acrid black smoke skyward, and it took more than three hours to extinguish.

A number of bodies were charred beyond recognition, and dozens of survivors were hospitalized with severe burns. The government said that tens of people had been killed, though The Associated Press and Reuters, citing local observers, said that as many as 100 may have died.

One survivor, Emeka Uju, said that people just burned like animals. Another witness, Christopher Nwachukwu, told reporters that the blast may have been caused when employees started dispensing cooking gas from the truck without waiting for it to cool first. This is a bleak Christmas, he said.

snip

Poor regulation and decrepit infrastructure has been blamed for series of explosions by tanker trucks on Nigerias roads. A deadly explosion two weeks ago, involving a gas tanker that fell off a bridge in central Lagos, the countrys economic capital, snarled traffic for hours.

Deadly fuel fires have been a chronic affliction in Nigeria, Africas leading oil exporter. In 2008, more than 100 people were reported killed when a construction vehicle struck an oil pipeline on the outskirts of Lagos. In 2007, at least 45 people were killed in Lagos when fuel they were siphoning from a buried pipeline caught fire. In 2006, another pipeline ruptured by thieves caught fire, killing about 260. One of the worst was a pipeline explosion in 1998 in southern Nigeria that killed 1,500.

There were widely diverging casualty tallies in the hours immediately after the Anambra inferno.

A shorter URL for the above link:

The Roosevelt Boulevard subway isnt the only rapid transit line Philadelphia was supposed to have but never got. There are actually a whole bunch of routes that have been proposed at some point but never realized over the years since the first city transit plan was released in 1912.

In some cases, though, the city did drop hints of what was to come or what was supposed to. These bits of unfinished or unbegun lines can be found at several places on and off the current SEPTA system, and with one exception, you can even see them. Heres a guide to the Ghosts of Subways That Never Were. Theres also a bonus: the only abandoned subway station on the SEPTA system.

Inside the City’s Ghost Subway System

January 3, 2012

by Jim O’Grady

http://www.wnyc.org/story/178653-blog-new-yorks-lost-subways/

The New York City subway system has 842 miles of track, making it the largest in North America. And there’s even more to it than riders see: dozens of tunnels and platforms that were either abandoned or were built but never used. They form a kind of ghost system that reveals how the city’s transit ambitions have been both realized and thwarted.

Historian Joe Cunningham knows as much as anyone about the subway and how it’s evolved since it opened in 1904. He stood before a map of it on a wall in Penn Station and considered its extent. The system is vast, reaching like an octopus from Manhattan to almost every neighborhood outside Staten Island. Cunnningham said that’s because its planners have always thought big.

“Oh yeah, it was a bold undertaking and little by little it just grew over a period of about 45 years,” he said. He also pointed out the gaps in service: southeast Brooklyn, central and eastern Queens, straight up the middle of the Bronx.

Almost all of those neighborhoods were set to get their own subways. Most of those lines died on the drafting table, but some were begun and then abandoned when the city ran out of money or pursued other priorities.

“After World War II, prices had gone up substantially and it became obvious that it was not going to be possible to build all of the lines they would’ve like to have built,” he explained.

Throngs of protesters descended Thursday on the Magnificent Mile, the city’s busiest shopping district, in hopes of barring last-minute shoppers and disrupting commerce for local retailers to call attention to the 2014 fatal shooting of Laquan McDonald by a police officer.

“Black Christmas” organizers hoped to replicate a demonstration held on Black Friday, when protests cost retailers 25 percent to 50 percent of their expected sales on what is normally the busiest shopping day of the year.

snip

Sidewalks remained busy with last-minute Christmas shoppers, and protesters blocked only a handful of store entrances including Apple, H&M, Uniqlo, Columbia Sportswear and the Water Tower Place mall and only for a few minutes a time. Desperate shoppers simply waited it out, or if they were determined to ignore the protesters, were in most cases allowed to enter the shops without a struggle, sometimes with police assistance.

Security officers who stood nervously near store entrances, ready to lock doors as protesters passed, were not called into action. In many cases the largest inconvenience to shoppers appeared to come from bicycle-mounted police who whizzed along the sidewalk with their bicycle sirens blaring as they attempted to stay ahead of the protesters.

ASHLAND, Miss. (AP) Instead of doing some last-minute shopping or wrapping gifts, families across the South spent Christmas Eve taking stock of their losses after an unusual outbreak of December tornadoes and other violent weather killed at least 14 people and damaged or destroyed dozens of homes.

“Santa brought us a good one, didn’t he?” Bobby Watkins said as he and his wife took a walk amid the destruction in rural Benton County, Mississippi, where four people including a married couple and two neighbors on the same street were confirmed dead and their homes destroyed. “I may have lost some stuff, but I got my life.”

Unseasonably warm weather Wednesday helped spawn twisters from Arkansas to Michigan. The line of springlike storms continued marching east Thursday, dumping torrential rain that flooded roads in Alabama and caused a mudslide in the mountains of Georgia.

Authorities confirmed seven deaths in Mississippi, including that of a 7-year-old boy who was in a car that was swept up and tossed by a storm.

Six more died in Tennessee. One person was killed in Arkansas.
Dozens more were injured, some seriously, said Greg Flynn, spokesman for the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency.

Search teams combed damaged homes and businesses for people still missing, including at least one man in hard-hit Benton County. The hunt was made complicated because so many had left for the holidays.

“Until they know for sure where those folks are, they’re going to keep looking, because we’ve had in some cases houses leveled, and they’re just not there anymore,” Flynn said.

In Linden, Tennessee, Tony Goodwin ducked into a storm shelter with seven others as the storm passed. He emerged to find his house had been knocked off its foundation and down the hill.

He managed to climb inside and fetch some Christmas gifts that had been under his tree. Goodwin’s neighbors weren’t so fortunate. Two people in one home were killed.

Update: Cafeteria Worker Fired over Free Lunch

Lunch lady offered to pay district the $1.70 cost of the meal she gave to a student without money

She plans to seek legal counsel. This is just breaking my heart

DECEMBER 21, 2015 11:39 PM

BY DEBBIE BRYCE

Idaho State Journal

http://www.idahostatesman.com/news/state/idaho/article51028040.html

POCATELLO

Last week, Dalene Bowden, a food service worker at Irving Middle School, was placed on leave after she gave a free hot lunch to a 12-year-old girl who said she was hungry and didnt have any money.

Bowden has now received a registered letter from the Pocatello/Chubbuck School District informing her that she has been fired.

The brief, one-page letter was signed by District 25 Director of Human Resources Susan Petit. It states that Bowden was dismissed due to her theft of school district property and inaccurate transactions when ordering, receiving and serving food.
.

Bowdens story garnered hundreds of comments on social media and an online petition was launched Saturday demanding that Bowden be reinstated as a lunch lady at Irving.

Bowden said she offered to pay for the $1.70 lunch, but her supervisor rejected her offer. And she was placed on termination leave last Tuesday pending a meeting with the District 25 School Board.

District School Board member Jacob Gertsch declined to comment on Bowdens termination Monday, calling it a personnel matter. And administrators could not be reached.

This is just breaking my heart, Bowden said. And they couldnt even bother to put my check in with the letter.

The letter states that Bowden will be paid within 10 days.

Raushelle Guzman, of Pocatello, started an online petition hoping to convince the district to rehire Bowden. As of Monday, more than 1,800 people had signed the online petition.

Guzman said she doesnt know Bowden, but she does have two children who attend District 25 schools.

I think (Bowden) did the right thing and I think we need to make sure that every child that wants lunch can have lunch, Guzman said. I think the districts policy needs to be changed. We do not need to humiliate or demean any child or worker in that situation. Students must be provided with an adequate meal.

Right decision? Dalene Bowden Idaho lunch lady fired for giving hungry student $2 hot meal

Raising eyebrows is one Idaho schools decision to fire a lunch lady, after the cafeteria worker, Dalene Bowden gave away a hot meal to a hungry child who didnt have any money. A theft that cost the school less than $2.

Despite offering to pay the district the $1.70 lunch shed given away, officials at Pocatellos Irving Middle School insisted their decision to let go of Bowden would stay firm.

Told the former lunch lady via Idaho State Journal of her dismissal just days before Christmas: I know I screwed up, but what are you supposed to do when the kid tells you that theyre hungry and they dont have any money?

Responding to the fracas, the human resource director of the Pocatello/Chubbuck School District sent Bowden a letter informing her she was being dismissed for theft of school property and inaccurate lunchroom transactions.

Bowden said she was serving up lunch last week when a 12-year-old girl told her she was hungry, but couldnt pay for a meal. The cafeteria worker loaded up the students tray with food, and told the girl they would figure out payment later.

Her supervisor saw what happened, and Bowden offered to pay for the meal herself. But her bosses rejected the offer and placed her on immediate leave instead, she said.

Days later, an official letter of termination came from the district.

How could they? The Idaho school district fired lunch lady Dalene Bowden this week for giving a hungry child a lunch! We need to send a clear message to these heartless bureaucrats – Please share the petition far and wide so Dalene can get her job back! The kids love her, and she did the right thing. Kids shouldn’t be denied a meal. Click here to share on Facebook.

About This Petition

WE NEED CHANGE! In Idaho’s Pocatello/Chubbuck School District 25, a kitchen worker has been put on unpaid leave and might lose her job because she gave a child a “free” lunch (equivalent to $1.70). Even after volunteering to pay for the hungry student’s lunch with her own money, kitchen worker Dalene Bowden could be fired!

After the incident, it was revealed that the child’s account was not even over the $11.00 overdraft balance limit and was then charged for that lunch. Here’s an updated story.

Per policy of the school district, if a child’s balance exceeds the $11.00 overdraft limit, the lunch is taken away and thrown out in front of the child and his/her peers, humiliating the child and making it hard on the kitchen aids to follow this policy. Who would want to deny a child food (perhaps that child’s only meal)?

This situation could be handled in so many more compassionate ways:
They could allow the child to work in the kitchen or cleaning/ wiping down tables in the cafeteria or possibly staying after games to pick up trash in order to earn their lunch if their balance is exceeded. We do not need to humiliate or demean any child or worker in the situation. Students must be provided with an adequate meal.

This kitchen aid deserves to keep her job! Lunch room policies should prioritize kindness and making sure kids recieve a nutritious lunch so they can be ready to learn. The policy is wrong! We need to change the policy or change the people making them!

One local lunch lady is out of a job after School District 25 fired her for giving a middle school student a free meal. There has been an uproar on social media about the incident, and many community members are not happy. Dalene Bowden has worked as a lunch lady for three years. She says, this school year alone between 80 to 100 kids have told her theyre starving, adding that she does not regret what she did for that little girl. Bowden says, “My heart hurts. I truly loved my job, and I can’t say that I wouldn’t do it again.”

Its been a week since Bowden lost her job at Irving Middle School. When speaking to KPVI she can barely form words when describing what led to her dismissal. KPVI News Reporter Magdala Louissaint asked, ‘Why did you do it? You said you loved your job?” Bowden said, Because they’re hungry what do you do? Send them out there so they can get it taken away and thrown away, no!”

Last Tuesday, December 15, 2015, Bowden was working as a server when a 12-year-old girl told her she didnt have any lunch money and was hungry. Bowden tells us what she did, “So I handed her the food and said here we’ll take care of it in a minute.” Bowdens supervisor saw what happened and reported her, “He said I was on permanent leave until he called me. I should not call them he will call me. And they never called me… then I got the letter.”

Signed and written by School District 25 Director of Human Resources, in that letter, Bowden was terminated for Theft. “I think it’s ridiculous, said Dean Molder. Other residents in Pocatello do not agree with the school districts decision. Justin Huse said, That’s absurd. That’s a ridiculous reason to fire somebody.” Jennifer Otte said, “I understand rules, but not when a child is hungry.”

Rehire Lunch Lady Fired for Giving Meal to Hungry Child

Target: Irving Middle School Principal Tonya Wilkes

Goal: Rehire a school cafeteria worker who was fired for giving a free meal to a child who couldnt afford it.

A cafeteria worker was unceremoniously fired for giving a 12-year-old child a hot meal when she didnt have any money for food. The employee, Dalene Bowden, had intended to pay for the meal herself, but her supervisor witnessed the incident and reported her. She was immediately put on leave for theft, then sent a termination letter soon after.

There are millions of children in the U.S. who go hungry on a regular basis because of widespread poverty and the fact that nutrition assistance programs arent adequately funded. Kids go into the cafeteria at school every day having to watch everyone else eat while theyre denied a decent meal. Then theyre unable to focus properly focus on schoolwork due to the hunger. Anyone who takes pity on one of these kids and reaches into their own pockets to provide them with something so basic as food should be rewarded, not fired.

The fact that this school even has a policy that would result in this woman being fired for giving food to a hungry child is a disgrace. Ms. Bowden is a fantastic employee with a big heart who had never even been written up in her three years working for the school. Sign our petition to demand that she be reinstated to her position and that the school changes its policies so that no one is fired for this ever again

This School Cafeteria Worker Gave A Hungry Student A Free Lunch. She Was Fired.

A school cafeteria worker at Irving Middle School in Pocatello, Idaho was fired after giving a 12-year-old student a free lunch. The cafeteria worker, Darlene Bowden, said the girl was hungry but didnt have any money to purchase the $1.70 lunch.

According to EastIdahoNews.com, Bowden was dismissed due to her theft of school district property and inaccurate transactions when ordering, receiving and serving food. Bowden offered to pay the school back for the lunch but her supervisor would not take it. She said she will take legal action now that the school has accused her of theft.

The school board would not respond to EastIdahoNews.coms requests for more information on the decision, saying it was a personnel matter. Irving Middle School administrators did not respond to requests for comment from the publication. ThinkProgress reached out to the school district, but received a message that the school was closed for winter break.

Bowden and Shelley Allen, a spokesperson for the school, have conflicting accounts of what the school does when students reach their $11 credit limit for lunch. Although Shelley Allen said students who reach the credit limit receive a meal, such as peanut butter and jelly sandwich and milk, Bowden told EastIdahoNews.com that workers are supposed to take a childs tray away and throw their meal in the trash if they exceed the limit.

Bowden created a GoFundMe page to get a lawyer, writing, I love my job, I really do,This just breaks my heart, and I was in the wrong, but what do you do when the kid tells you that theyre hungry, and they dont have any money? I handed her the tray.

She has received $845 out of the $20,000 she hopes to raise.

A similar incident happened last June when a Della Curry, a kitchen manager for an elementary school in Aurora, Colorado, lost her job after giving students free lunches. The district would give students hot meals and charge a parents account if the child forgot lunch money three times. But if a child forgot their money a fourth time, their usual meal would be thrown away and they would have to eat a single slice of cheese on a hamburger bun with a milk instead of a regular meal. Curry told ABC News, Its not nutrition. Its not healthy Its wrong on so many levels, and I hated to see food go to waste. I hated to see food thrown away that couldve been given to these children that are hungry.

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, 21 million low-income children rely on free or reduced-price school lunches for their nutritional needs on an average school day. Three out of five teachers teaching students in grades three through eight said they regularly see students come to school hungry, according to the nonprofit organization No Kid Hungry, which advocates for ending child hunger nationwide. Hunger also affects childrens cognitive and social development. Free breakfast can mean a bump in students academic success and a decrease in the number of absences they have from school.

POCATELLO City Hall has received numerous calls and emails from around the country regarding the firing of Dalene Bowden in Pocatello/Chubbuck School District 25.

snip

In response to the calls, the city of Pocatello issued the following statement Wednesday emphasizing the city is a separate government entity from District 25:

Wed like to thank everyone who has taken an interest in Pocatello recently; we just wish it were under better circumstances. Wed like to remind everyone that the situation involving Dalene Bowden was handled by officials with Pocatello/Chubbuck School District 25 and no city elected officials or employees were involved in the decision making process. While we both operate in the same community, the district and City government are two separate entities in Pocatello.

Mayor Blad and the city feel this is an extremely unfortunate situation. Despite being separate jurisdictions, Mayor Blad is actively trying to get a meeting with the superintendent of Pocatello/Chubbuck School District 25 to discuss how this situation has impacted our community as a whole.

Content Sample : Sample Entry

Down syndrome

Background: Down syndrome is a congenital condition (i.e. a condition existing at or before birth that may have a genetic or environmental cause). Down syndrome is caused by the presence of an extra full or partial copy of chromosome 21 in an individuals cell nuclei. It was first reported in 1866 by Dr. John Langdon Down and is characterized by a number of physical and cognitive symptoms, which the National Institutes of Health details here.

Other terms commonly used to refer to people with Down syndrome are intellectually disabled, developmentally disabled or a person who has a cognitive disability or intellectual disability. The Global Down Syndrome Foundation considers all of these terms acceptable, while the National Down Syndrome Society suggests using cognitive disability or intellectual disability.

NCDJ Recommendation: The proper term for the disorder is Down syndrome, not Downs syndrome or Downs Syndrome. Use people-first language, stating that someone is a person with Down syndrome or has Down syndrome. Avoid using terms such as suffers from or afflicted with in association with the condition.

The terms intellectually disabled, developmentally disabled, cognitive disability and intellectual disability are acceptable when used in a people-first context to describe someone with Down syndrome, such as the person has a developmental disability. However, it is more accurate to refer specifically to Down syndrome when that is the medically diagnosed condition.

The arrest for securities fraud of Martin Shkreli, 32, who became the boyish face of drug industry greed this summer when his firm Turing Pharmaceuticals bought the generic toxoplasmosis treatment pyrimethamine (Daraprim) and raised the price by 5000% overnight,1 has been greeted with jubilation not just by the public but by an industry that had rapidly come to see Shkreli as a major public relations problem.

Shkreli is accused of embezzling $11m (7.4m; 10.1m) from Retrophin Inc, a biotechnology firm that he founded in 2011, to pay back investors in Ponzi-like schemes involving his two hedge funds. He posted $5m bail and protested his innocence through a spokesman.

Under Shkrelis leadership Retrophin had also engaged in generic drug price hiking, raising the cost of the kidney stone prophylactic tiopronin (Thiola) from $1.50 to $30.

Firing Shkreli last October, Retrophins board had nevertheless praised him for creating a thriving biopharmaceutical company that has improved the lives of patients with rare disease. But this August the company sued him for misuse of company funds.

On his arrest Retrophin issued this statement, A new chapter for Retrophin began the day the company replaced Martin Shkreli more than a year agoand that decision has been vindicated by todays indictment.

MISCONDUCT:

Pennsylvania Justice Suspended Over Lewd Emails

By Mark Scolforo

Associated Press (AP)

HARRISBURG, Pa.

ABC News

http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/ pennsylvania-justice-suspended-lewd-emails-35914943

A shorter URL for the above link:

http://tinyurl.com/hr9dbdb

A Pennsylvania Supreme Court justice was suspended from his job with pay Tuesday while a state judicial ethics court considers allegations his email exchanges, including photos of nude or topless women, crude jokes and salacious Internet memes, have tainted the court system.

A three-judge panel of the Court of Judicial Discipline described Justice Michael Eakin’s emails as insensitive and inappropriate regarding gender, race, sexual orientation and ethnicity.

“The only means to ensure the public’s confidence in the Pennsylvania judiciary is to suspend (him) pending the full trial,” the panel wrote.

Eakin’s suspension is the latest fallout from an email scandal that has roiled Pennsylvania’s legal and law enforcement community for over a year. Fellow Justice Seamus McCaffery abruptly retired last year after being suspended over his participation in the email swapping.

The emails were uncovered as part of Attorney General Kathleen Kane’s internal investigation into how the office handled the Jerry Sandusky child molestation investigation before she was elected.

The judges said they were particularly concerned about two exchanges between Eakin and Jeff Baxter, a deputy attorney general who worked for Eakin when he was Cumberland County district attorney.

The judges said the two men commented on “the physical attributes of female employees in (Eakin’s) office as well as sexually suggestive observations. Clearly, these emails, which address judicial employees, are extremely inappropriate and offensive.”

Eakin’s lawyer said they were disappointed but respected the process and hoped a trial would be scheduled soon. The court order set a pretrial conference for Jan. 21 in Harrisburg.

Eakin, 67, has been on the high court since 2002. If the court rules against him at trial, he faces a range of possible punishment, up to permanent removal from the bench.

DISASTERS: LANDSLIDES :

COUNTRIES: CHINA:

Boy’s Anguish as Rescuers Search for Bodies after Deadly China Landslide

By Katie Hunt, Yuli Yang and Matt Rivers

CNN

Updated 8:28 AM ET, Tuesday December 22, 2015

http://www.cnn.com/2015/12/22/asia/china–landslide/

Shenzhen, China (CNN)The parents of six-year-old Hong Laibao were delivering goods at an industrial park in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen when a mountain of construction waste collapsed, engulfing factory buildings and homes.

“I want my mum and my dad to come out faster,” he said, wiping tears from his eyes as he spoke to CNN from a local sports stadium being used as temporary shelter alongside his elder brother and aunt.

So far, they’re nowhere to be found.

A massive rescue effort involving 4,000 people has been underway since Sunday’s landslide, but the likelihood of finding people still alive is small, state broadcaster CCTV said Tuesday.

The first victim’s body has been pulled from the red mud and rubble, according to a televised press conference given by Shenzhen’s local government, and there are still more 76 reported missing.

CNN footage showed dozens of excavators working to clear the rubble, dwarfed by the sheer scale of the landslide, which covered 380,000 square meters (94 acres) — or around 60 football fields.

Densely packed with few air pockets, in some places the mud and debris was piled four stories tall, CCTV reported. The landslide toppled buildings and ruptured a gas pipeline, so clearing the site could take weeks, it added.

Meanwhile, little Hong’s elder brother described how he called his father repeatedly, until his cell phone battery went flat.

“When are they going to find our parents? In our culture, no matter what happened to them, we need to see them, even if it’s their remains,” said Hong Xianlin.

Global Agricultural Supply and Demand:

Factors Contributing to the Recent Increase

in Food Commodity Prices

by Ronald Trostle

Outlook No. (WRS-0801) 30 pp, July 2008

World market prices for major food

commodities such as grains and vegetable

oils have risen sharply to historic highs of

more than 60 percent above levels just

2 years ago. Many factors have contributed

to the runup in food commodity prices.

Some factors reflect trends of slower

growth in production and more rapid

growth in demand, which have contributed

to a tightening of world balances of grains

and oilseeds over the last decade.

Recent factors that have further tightened

world markets include increased global

demand for biofuels feedstocks and adverse

weather conditions in 2006 and 2007 in some

major grain and oilseed producing areas.

Other factors that have added to global food

commodity price inflation include the

declining value of the U.S. dollar, rising

energy prices, increasing agricultural costs of

production, growing foreign exchange holdings

by major food importing countries, and policies

adopted recently by some exporting and

importing countries to mitigate their own food

price inflation.

LAW CASE DECISIONS:

Texas Grand Jury Issues No Indictments in Jailhouse Death of Sandra Bland

By Sarah Kaplan

December 21, 2015 at 10:33 PM

Washington Post

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/12/21/
grand-jury-will-not-indict-anyone-in-connect-with-sandra-bland-death/

A shorter URL for the above link:

http://tinyurl.com/p7zf9rx

A grand jury will not indict anyone in connection with the death of Sandra Bland, who was found hanged in a Texas jail cell in July.

Five months after her death drew national protests, one of special prosecutors for the case, Darrell Jordan, told The Washington Post that the grand jury decided not to indict anyone, including staff at the Waller County Jail where Bland was held, in connection with her death.

snip

Officials said that Bland kicked Encinia, and she was arrested for assaulting a public servant. She was found dead three days later, hanging from a cell partition with a plastic garbage back around her neck.

Blands death was ruled a suicide by the county coroner, but family members and protesters around the country disputed that conclusion, alleging that she should not have been arrested and had been the victim of racism. Her name joined others Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Freddie Gray as a byword of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Blands family has remained vocally suspicious of the coroners ruling of suicide, and in August family members filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the Waller County sheriffs office, jail officials and the Texas Department of Public Safety. Attorneys for Waller County have sought to have the lawsuit dismissed, saying that Bland killed herself out of despair that her relatives did not quickly bail her out.

Last week, a Texas judge set the trial date for Jan. 23, 2017 for Blands familys wrongful death suit.

The announcement of the grand jurys decision came just hours after Blands family criticized the handling of her case, which they said was not being thoroughly investigated by the Texas Rangers or properly presented by special prosecutors.

Right now the biggest problem I have is the entire process, Blands mother, Geneva Reed-Veal, said at a press conference Monday, according to the Chicago Tribune. Its the secrecy of it all.

After decades of alleged wrongdoing, the architect of modern soccer has been booted out of the organization he helped build. FIFA President Sepp Blatter has been banned for eight years.

The ban which turned on Blatters alleged $2 million payment, now under criminal investigation in Switzerland, to protege Michel Platini, the president of the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA), in 2011 took immediate effect. It was instituted by an ethics committee Blatter himself helped create.

Neither in his written statement nor in his personal hearing was Mr Blatter able to demonstrate another legal basis for this payment, FIFA wrote in a press release. His assertion of an oral agreement was determined as not convincing and was rejected by the chamber.

As the BBC explained, charges included conflict of interest and false accounting. Blatter called the payment a gentlemens agreement. Though the money was ostensibly for advising work completed between 1999 and 2002, some said Blatter paid Platini to support Blatters campaign for FIFAs presidency.

Platini, 60, was also banned for eight years. He was expected to succeed the 79-year-old Blatter, who said he would step down once his replacement was chosen.

Blatter, the Associated Press reported, was also fined about $50,000; Platini was fined about $80,000.

To say that it is a good day for me or FIFA, it would be totally wrong, Blatter said at a news conference after the decision was released. Invoking an occasion Nelson Mandela appeared at FIFA, he praised the sport before sarcastically apologizing for the league.

Im sorry for football, he said. Im sorry for my 40-year career.

At least one person was killed and 36 were injured when a woman steered a car onto a sidewalk on the Strip and hit pedestrians near Paris Las Vegas and Planet Hollywood tonight, according to officials.

The incident occurred at 6:38 p.m. along Las Vegas Boulevard South, north of East Harmon Avenue, according to Metro Police. Officers said the driver, a woman in her 20s, drove a 1996 Oldsmobile four-door sedan on and off of the sidewalk perhaps two or three times.

“We are treating this as an intentional act,” Metro homicide Lt. Dan McGrath said.

Las Vegas Boulevard was closed in both directions from Flamingo Road to Harmon, and Interstate 15 ramps to Flamingo east were closed, according to a Regional Transportation Commission alert sent about 7:20 p.m. Police expect the boulevard near the scene to remain closed the rest of the night.

Clark County Fire Department spokesman Jeff Buchanan said six victims were transported to Sunrise Hospital & Medical Center and University Medical Center in critical condition. At 11:15 p.m., authorities listed those six in stable condition. Victims also were sent to Spring Valley Hospital, according to Metro Police. Four victims were treated and released.

Sunrise spokeswoman Stacy Acquista told The Associated Press that 11 adults were in good condition as of 9 p.m. Danita Cohen, spokeswoman for UMC, said the hospital took in 15 victims, two of whom have been discharged and one of whom died. She told the AP injuries ranged from head injuries to broken bones and lacerations.

Cohen said many of the patients at UMC were from the Montreal, Canada, area and were requesting French-speaking translators. One 11-year-old patient was in serious condition, Cohen said.

The driver fled the scene and was taken into custody at the Tuscany Suites and Casino, near Flamingo and Koval Lane. She was interviewed and underwent sobriety checks, according to Metro Police Capt. Peter Boffelli.

[RailTransportation] TRANSPORTATION: LIGHT RAIL : COUNTRIES: SCOTLAND : STATISTICS: Tram Passengers to Top Five Million

STATISTICS:

Tram Passengers to Top Five Million

21 December 2015

From the section Edinburgh, Fife & East Scotland

BBC News

http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-edinburgh-east-fife-35144995

Edinburgh’s trams are on track to have carried more than five million passengers by the end of the year.

Latest figures for passenger numbers are 12% up on the same time last year, according to Transport for Edinburgh.

The busiest week was during the Edinburgh Festival season in August when 137,000 passengers were carried.

Five major rugby fixtures at Murrayfield and a Foo Fighters concert each added an extra 10,000 to the year’s total.

The city’s tram network opened at the end of May 2014, having been dogged by delays, overspends and legal wrangles with the contractors.

But transport chiefs have stressed that since then the system has proved popular, with a satisfaction survey in 2015 showing a 95% customer satisfaction rating and a 99% rating for reliability.
‘Continuing popularity’

The projected total for passenger numbers throughout 2015 is 5.1 million, higher than the targets set out in the business model.

States, Feds Keep Train-Derailment Reports from Public

Sunday December 20, 2015 5:29 AM

A shorter URL for the above link:

http://tinyurl.com/jv9wmd7

Information that state and federal government agencies collect about train derailments, particularly those that cause crude-oil spills, is hard to find.

Huge amounts of data about collisions, derailments and other accidents that happen along railroads in the United States are collected every year.

Some of it is compiled by the industry and distributed directly to the public upon request. But some is buried in databases that government officials are slow to release, if at all.

For example, the U.S. Department of Transportation requires railroads to submit annual reports to state emergency-response officials estimating how many trains carrying crude oil from the Bakken shale region pass through each county.

Yet in many states, the public is not allowed to see those reports.

A request by The Dispatch to see reports for Ohio went unanswered for months.

In some instances, railroads have sued to try to keep reports secret. Some states allow the public to review only limited information from those reports.

In Illinois, for example, the state emergency-response commission provided to The Dispatch railroad reports that included the number of crude-oil trains traveling through each county but redacted the specific rail lines.

In the report West Virginia officials released, counties where crude oil moves by rail were blacked out, as were specific rail lines, and amounts of crude oil hauled. Melissa Cross, coordinator of West Virginias State Emergency Response Commission, said the state lets the railroad decide what information should be made public.

That is what the CSX determines to be proprietary and confidential information, and it is our policy that we do not release confidential and proprietary information, Cross said.

She said firefighters and other first responders have access to the full reports on a secure website.

Inside the Power of the N.R.A.

ROBERT DRAPER

Among the N.R.A.’s most-activist members, however, there is a powerful suspicion that one restriction will open the door to more, each new limit leading inexorably to a time when there will no longer be a right to bear arms. Throughout March, the N.R.A. employed the familiar mechanics of lobbying the dozen or so senators including Democrats facing tough re-election battles in 2014 like Mary Landrieu of Louisiana and blue-state Republicans like Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire who had not yet decided whether they would support the bill. They pressed for face time with the senators, cozied up to their aides and urged N.R.A. members in their states to harangue the Washington offices. Cox and Baker were aware that the senators were also feeling pressure from the White House and gun-safety groups and, of course, from Joe Manchin, a fellow N.R.A. member and sportsman who actively sought to allay the fears of red-state legislators that his bill would be impossible to sell back home. Recognizing, for example, that a chief talking point of the gun lobby was that universal background checks might enable a government agency to compile a national registry, he added a section that would make the attempt to do so punishable by a 15-year prison sentence. By early April, Manchin found a willing Republican co-sponsor: Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania, the former president of the fiscally hawkish Club for Growth who, like Manchin, had received an A rating from the N.R.A. (Toomey hailed from a blue state and, says someone closely involved in the legislative strategy, he needed something to show to more moderate voters in Pennsylvania that hes not an ideologue.)

For the time being, then, Cox and Bakers only recourse was to make Manchins bill as attractive to gun owners as possible, in the event that it became law. Through email and phone calls, N.R.A. lobbyists inundated Manchins office with suggested bill changes. Among these were small but meaningful technicalities like refining the legal definition of gun show and exempting certain firearm purchases from background checks. When the Manchin-Toomey bill was officially made public on April 10, the language included numerous provisions that were explicitly, according to someone involved in the negotiations, N.R.A. ask-fors.

The N.R.A. prefers quashing a bill it doesnt like or pushing a favored bill through Congress with traditional arm twisting. But if it cant do that, the organization strives to be in the room while legislation is being hashed out; and once there, it will cut deals with any ally it can find, including Democrats. This is the way of all lobbying organizations, of course. As David Keene, the former N.R.A. president, put it: Our effectiveness is totally dependent on the fact that we reward our friends, and we stand with them. Our goal isnt to elect Republicans. Its to support people who support the Second Amendment. The N.R.A. declared war on those who helped pass the 1994 assault-weapons ban, most of whom were Democrats, but while the bill was being crafted, the N.R.A. worked with two of its House Democratic allies, John Dingell and Jack Brooks of Texas, to weaken it so that if it did pass, it would apply to only a limited number of firearms and would expire a decade later. (It did not pass again.) Following the Virginia Tech shootings in 2007, the N.R.A. skillfully aligned itself with both the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence and Carolyn McCarthy, a New York congresswoman and ardent gun-control advocate, to pass legislation that would improve the flow of state mental-health and criminal records to the F.B.I. database.

How A Proud Gun Owner Running For Congress
Became The Enemy Number 1 Of The NRA

by Alice Ollstein

December 19, 2015 9:00 am

Think Progress

http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2015/12/19/3733630/nra-nevada-race/

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA Just a few hours after congressional candidate John Oceguera announced he was terminating his lifetime membership with the National Rifle Association, the angry comments began flooding his inbox and Facebook page, calling him, among other slurs, a pussy traitor, kool aid-drinking zombie, and libtard.

May be [sic] he can get an endorsement from the Muslim brotherhood? mused one commentator, while another advised, Castrate yourself.

Sitting in his office on the western edge of Las Vegas, the former Nevada Assembly Speaker and Democratic candidate for Congress told ThinkProgress that the vitriolic reaction has only strengthened his resolve.

The NRA does a lot of good things, like with hunting safety, but theyve just become so stringent and wont compromise on any issue, he said. Its like you cant say anything about commonsense gun reform without people screaming, Youre taking our guns! or Youre an idiot or a lot worse than that. When I made this announcement, I became enemy number one. But do I really want to belong to an organization where I cant have an opinion thats just slightly different?

Oceguera, a fourth generation Nevadan who grew up on the Walker River Indian Reservation, is an unlikely enemy number one for the NRA.

He owns multiple guns, including a .22 rifle that belonged to his grandmother and a double-barrel shotgun that belonged to his great uncle. He grew up hunting ducks and other game at the states Greenhead Hunting Club, and became a life member of the NRA in the early 2000s. During his time in the Nevada State Assembly, he helped pass bills to make it easier for people with concealed carry permits to carry weapons in neighboring states, and to not have to get re-permitted for every firearm.

But his views began to change when he moved to Las Vegas and joined the fire department, a job that for nearly 25 years put him face-to-face with dozens if not hundreds of gunshot victims and their grieving families. Then, both his father and a good friend committed suicide with guns. The former had a history of domestic violence, while the latter struggled for years with mental illness.

That, coupled with seeing Congress inaction [on gun control] made me say, I cant do this anymore,’ Oceguera told ThinkProgress. I still own guns for self-protection in my home, and Im going to teach my kids gun safety and have already started doing that. But I now think there are some people who are criminals, who have mental illness, who are on the watch list who shouldnt have guns. Its as simple as that. And I think that if law-abiding NRA members and gun owners like myself dont stand up and say, Geez, enough is enough. Lets do something, then nothing is going to happen.

Oceguera is grappling with the gun control question at a time his state is doing the same. Nevada will vote on a ballot initiative in 2016 that would close a current loophole that allows people to buy a gun in a private sale without passing a background check. The state chapter of the NRA is vehemently opposing the measure, though much of the public, like Oceguera, supports it.

Theres never been a gun that Ive purchased where I couldnt wait until tomorrow, or three days from now, he told ThinkProgress. If you have to have it today maybe theres an issue there.

Yet the NRAs influence in Nevada may be strong enough to defeat the measure.

ENVIRONMENT: ATMOSPHERE AIR QUALITY AND AIR POLUTION:

Beijing’s Pollution Red Alert:
Mass Disruption across Chinese City
in Desperate Bid to Clear Smog-Filled Air

Analysis by China correspondent Bill Birtles

Posted Saturday at 1:57am on December 19, 2015

ABC News

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-12-19/beijing-smog-red- alert-causes-disruption-in-bid-for-clear-air/7043380

A shorter URL for the above link:

http://tinyurl.com/qxtxt98

The decision by authorities in China’s capital to declare a second pollution red alert in a fortnight could not have been taken lightly.

Issuing the highest level warning shows the willingness of Beijing’s government to now seriously inconvenience residents in a desperate bid to improve the air they breathe.

The red alert is triggered for extended periods of hazardous-level smog, lasting for three days or more.

With mounting concern in recent years about air quality, Beijing’s four-tier warning system was introduced as a way to help alleviate the problem and protect children.

But residents noticed authorities appeared reticent to issue the top level alert and implement its restrictive measures.

These include forcing industrial and construction workers to down tools and advising schools to stop classes.

In many, if not most schools, the advice is heeded and parents find they have to cope with their child (or children) at home for up to three days.

Throwing another spanner in the works are the restrictions on driving.

Beijingers have long been used to a number-plate based system that forces most cars off the roads for at least one day per week.

But during the red alert, roughly half the city’s cars are forced off each day, with drivers who break the rules facing a 100 Yuan fine ($21.50) for every three hours they spend on the roads (Beijing’s labyrinth of cameras ensure they are spotted).

China Landslide: 22 Buildings Collapse in Shenzhen Industrial Park

BBC News

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-35144579

Some 22 buildings have collapsed in a landslide at an industrial park in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen.

About 900 people have been evacuated, with four people pulled alive from rubble with minor or no injuries, the local government said. No fatalities have been reported.

Shenzhen’s fire brigade said it was working to free other trapped people. At least 27 remain missing.

Two workers’ dormitories are among the affected buildings.

Shenzhen’s public security bureau posted a notice online saying that eight hours after the landslide, 21 men and six women were unaccounted for, AP reports.

An area of 20,000 sq m (24,000 square yards) was covered with soil, the Public Security Bureau’s firefighting bureau said.

Ren Jiguang, the deputy chief of Shenzhen’s public security bureau, told state broadcaster CCTV that most people had been moved to safety before the landslide hit.

Lupica: Zaevion Dobson’s Death Latest Gun Tragedy in this Country,
But Will Be Ignored by Republicans and Second Amendment Nuts

BY Mike Lupica

NEW YORK DAILY NEWS

Updated: Saturday, December 19, 2015, 2:03 PM

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/ lupica-zaevion-dobson-death-shouldn-gop-article-1.2471166

This will prompt no real interest, or outrage, from all those fighting like hockey fighters to be the Republican Party’s Presidential nominee, because the shooting in Knoxville, Tenn. the other night had nothing to do with radical Islam.

The guys with the guns, the ones who went around shooting up Knoxville, didn’t have names like Farook or Malik.

One of the shooters, dead himself later, was named Brandon Perry, age 23. Another bad guy on a night of shooting in Knoxville was named Christopher Bassett, a felon in possession of a firearm, and stop me if you’ve heard that one before. Where did Bassett, felon, get his gun? He got it somewhere. Theres more than 200 million guns in this country, and that number may be low. You’re sometimes surprised that they aren’t just falling out of trees.

But we’re not supposed to change anything with guns after another year of shooting, not even suggest that gun-show loopholes should be closed up, or that we need to take a look at the entire process of background checks. We’re not even supposed to suggest that there is no good reason why anyone in a civilized country should own an automatic weapon.

Mental illness wasn’t an issue in Knoxville, even though that always provides convenient cover for those who want no changes to the gun laws or the easy access to guns, at least when the Second Amendment isn’t providing cover for these people. They are the ones with screws loose, as they continue to believe that if we even take a look at the Second Amendment that before long the government will, in the words of Gov. Cuomo, “be coming up the driveway with tanks to get their guns.”

We just had more bad guys with guns in Knoxville, gangs on the loose, grudges being settled, and when the shooting finally stopped a Fulton High School football player, Zaevion Dobson, was dead.

Here was one of the comments you heard in the aftermath of Zaevion Dobson’s death:

“These cowardly and senseless acts of violence must stop. We should be preparing to celebrate the Christmas holiday, but now we have two men who are dead.”

Those comments did not come from the President Obama, who stopped in San Bernardino on Friday to mourn with family members of the dead there, a President actually accused by the bullhorn media of politicizing that terrible event by even showing up on his way to a family vacation in Hawaii.

No, those comments about cowardly and senseless acts came from Knoxville Chief of Police David Rausch after a night when his city became the latest to become a shooting gallery, like some road-show version of Chicago. You wonder if anybody wants to accuse Chief Rausch of politicizing Zaevion Dobson.

The kid was 15-years-old, and died trying to shield three girls, diving on them as he tried to keep them safe. We always come away from another shooting with stories about heroes becoming victims, with acts as noble as any battlefield across the world has ever seen. When the President gives his State of the Union address in a couple of weeks, and speaks of guns, Zaevion Dobson’s family should be in the audience, sitting with members of Congress who refuse to do anything about guns.

Another day, another shooting.

A 15-year-old football star was killed in Tennessee Thursday, and unsurprisingly the NRA has nothing to say about it.

The gun lobbying groups Twitter feed made no mention of the tragic death of Zaevion Dobson, who shielded girls from the gunfire.

A man police accuse of being connected to the drive-by shooting death of a selfless 15-year-old high school football player in Knoxville, Tenn., is being held without bond, the Knoxville News Sentinel reported.

snip

Police thus far have charged Christopher Drone Bassett, 20, with being a felon possessing a gun and violation of probation. Court records show Bassett has two felony convictions, according to the News Sentinel.

Bassett told police he fired “four to five times” with a .40-caliber Glock handgun in the direction of where Dobson was shot on the porch of a home, according to an arrest warrant.

Bassett is being held in Knoxville’s Roger D. Wilson Detention Facility without bond.

Dobson’s act of bravery was being hailed in a city torn by one night’s gun violence, and his death was being noted throughout the nation.

At the news conference, Knoxville Police Department Chief David Rausch choked back tears at one point as he detailed the Thursday night shooting that killed the 15-year-old sophomore and football player at Fulton High School.

A community and its youth are grieving today over the death of Zaevion William Dobson, a high school student-athlete who was fatally shot after he and his friends were fired on as they sat outside, authorities said.

His brother, Zack Dobson, said Zaevion lived to play football. “We were just sitting there chilling”, Dobson said.

“He was laying there, and I just pick him up and put him in my arms”. Perry used the same BMW, Rausch said, when randomly firing rounds that struck Dobson. “Unfortunately he wasn’t lucky, but he saved two lives”. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

“Why would you shoot at random bystanders for nothing? We must come together to end the violence”, he said. I love him that’s my brother man?? rest easy zae????

“I’m shocked. I’m really just shocked. I miss my brother”.

snip

Brandon Perry was shot later in the night and located after he crashed his auto. He was transported to University of Tennessee Medical Center for treatment, according to police. One was released after questioning.

Police have charged Christopher Drone Bassett, 20, with being a possessing a gun and violation of probation in connection to the incident. He is being held without bond.

Also attending the news conference were Knoxville Mayor Madeline Rogero, Fulton High School Principal Rob Speas and Fulton football coach Rob Black.

One of the men police believe was involved in the shooting died hours later Friday morning after crashing his BMW into the brick wall of an apartment building.

Fulton High School sophomore Zaevion Dobson’s death while shielding three girls from random gunfire during a gang shooting was just the kind of selfless act Principal Rob Speas expected from his student.

“That speaks to his character,” Speas said Friday. “As a sophomore, he was a leader. He was a kid that other kids wanted to be around.”

Knoxville Police Chief David Rausch choked back tears Friday at a news conference when he described how Dobson, 15, acted as a human shield to save three girls from a fusillade of bullets fired by three men. About a dozen people were in the area when the shooting began about 10:12 p.m. Thursday.

Police on Friday charged Christopher Drone Bassett, 20, with being a felon possessing a gun and violation of probation. Court records show Bassett has two felony convictions.

Bassett told police he fired “four to five times” with a .40-caliber Glock handgun in the direction of 2704 Badgett St. in Lonsdale, where Dobson was shot on the porch of the home, according to an arrest warrant.

Bassett was being held Friday in the Roger D. Wilson Detention Facility without bond.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) — It’s pretty unusual for grown men to learn things from a teenager.

But people who knew Zaevion Dobson say he wasn’t a usual kid.

Rick Staples, who’s mentored Zaevion since he was 10, says he made an impact on everyone he met.

“Even though he was only on this earth for 15 years, he left a huge shadow to fill, a huge footprint,” Staples says.

snip

And even though he was young, Staples says Zaevion was a natural-born leader. He was always trying to make the world around him a better place.

“I know he had a point of service in his heart. And he cared about community and others more than himself. And that’s a heck of a legacy. I know some adults that could follow Zaevion’s lead,” Staples says.

snip

Zaevion was shot and killed Thursday night in Lonsdale. Police say multiple shots were fired at a group of people on the 2700 block of Badgett Drive. Investigators believe the shooting was gang-related, but the victims were chosen at random.

Two teenage girls who were with Zaevion when it happened say he saved their lives, telling them to hit the ground and shielding them from the gunfire.

“If it wasn’t for Zaevion, if he would have just ran off the porch, we would have probably been shot,” one girl says.

When the shooting began Thursday night in Knoxville, Tenn., Zaevion Dobson faced a split-second choice: run away and save himself or use his body as a shield to protect those around him.

Nobody wouldve have blamed the 15-year-old Fulton High School football player for doing the former. But Dobson, survivors would later recall, sacrificed himself, jumping on top of three teenage girls who were sitting on a porch with a few other friends when two men approached and began shooting randomly into the group, according to the Associated Press.

If it wasnt for Zaevion, if he would have just ran off the porch, we would have probably been shot, Kiara Rucker told CBS affiliate WVLT.

Dobson was killed by a bullet that struck him in the head, police said. He was the only person among the group who was hit.

Youre my hero, Ill never forget you, Faith Gordon, who credited Dobson with saving her life, wrote on Twitter.

Unfortunately, they picked a random group of young men and women who were just hanging out and trying to prepare to celebrate the holiday, Knoxville Police Chief David Rausch, who earlier struggled to hold back tears discussing the teenagers sacrifice at a news conference, told the AP.

Zach Dobson, the victims brother, told NBC-affiliate WBIR-TV that the shooting took those on the scene by surprise. By the time the group of young people realized that Dobson had been shot in the moments of confusion that followed, it was too late.

He was laying there, and I just pick him up and put him in my arms, his brother said. He was dead. Unfortunately, he wasnt lucky, but he saved two lives.

How Much Should You Exercise? Try an Exercise Prescription

Physiological testing, once the domain of endurance athletes, can be a useful tool in battling cardiometabolic diseases

BOULDER The treadmill is rolling along at a grand total of 4 mph, and I’m chugging along at a shuffle, breathing into a mask. My exercise physiologist, Kevin Nicol, pricks my fingertip for the first of five tiny blood samples.

The blood samples tell him what’s fueling my jogging: fat or carbohydrates. At a shuffle, I’m burning fat. Later, running harder, I’ll burn only carbs.

Initially, the test was easy. It got tougher, of course, as Nicol and Igo San Mill, director of sports performance at the new University of Colorado Sports Medicine and Performance Center, where I took this test, sped up the treadmill. But it’s OK, the short-lived suffering at the very end of my physiological testing was for science.

Elite endurance athletes come to the lab to get specific numbers they can apply in a training regime that will improve their performance. Regular folks like me, though, can come to the lab for a different takeaway: an individualized prescription for exercise that can help fight off or even reverse some chronic diseases.

San Mill has worked with professional cyclists and runners for years. Elite endurance athletes form the only population out there that is free of cardiometabolic diseases and issues, such as Type 2 diabetes and metabolic disease, he said. So he’s taking what he knows about the metabolism of elite athletes and applying it to a much larger population: people facing the health risks posed by inactivity.

When people decide they want to be more active or lose some weight, or when a doctor tells them they need to exercise, people often don’t know what to do, San Mill said, and they often overdo it. “People go on this drastic diet, they go to the gym and just kill themselves, … and we know that people drop out of these programs in six months,” he said. “They fail at losing weight. Many even get injured.”

If those people had an individualized program, they wouldn’t have to suffer so much, and they’d get much better results in their overall health at a cellular level, he said.

Trained Coaches Help Prevent Football Injuries

Justis column: Concussions remain a hot top in youth leagues

Nancy Justis

The Gazette

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recently endorsed limiting contact practices in youth football. It did not make a straightforward recommendation to delay the age at which tackling is introduced. It also refused to support those calling for an outright ban on tackling for athletes below the age of 18.

snip

The AAP actually left it up to the players, parents and organizations to decide whether the potential health risks of sustaining these injuries are outweighed by the recreational benefits associated with proper tackling.

The AAP ended up making eight recommendations regarding tackling in youth football.

Strictly enforce rules against spearing. A significant number of concussions and catastrophic injuries occur because of improper and illegal contact. As noted in an article printed on www.momsteam.com onOct. 25, it bemoans what it said was a culture of tolerance of head first, illegal hits and called for a change in that culture to one of zero tolerance. It also calls for stronger sanctions for contact to the head.

Weigh risks against benefits in participation decision.

Offer non-contact forms of football. Non-tackling leagues for young athletes who enjoy the game and want to be physically active but do not want to be exposed to the collisions currently associated with the game should be considered by leagues and organizations.

Limit contact practices. Although the statement said the effect of repetitive head impacts on long-term cognitive function remains unclear, AAP saw no clear benefit in repetitive head impacts to the game or the players health. Thus, it endorses reducing the number of impacts to the head at the high school and youth levels.

Consider delaying the age at which tackling is introduced. In doing so, the risk of injuries for the age levels at which tackling would be prohibited would be lessened, but once introduced, tackle football might expose players with no previous experience to collisions for the first time at ages when speeds are faster, and collisions and the risk of injury is greater. If banning tackling at certain ages, the programs must be accompanied by coaches offering instruction in proper tackling technique as well as the teaching of the skills necessary to evade tackles and absorb being tackled.

Promote neck strengthening. This helps to limit the acceleration of the head after impact.

Staff games and practices with athletic trainers. Obviously a cost factor.

The Datalys Center for Sports Injury Research and Prevention recently released findings of a 2014 study that show youth football players in leagues participating in USA Footballs Heads Up Football program have a 76 percent reduction in injuries. The program strives to teach and play football safer. It involves USA Footballs nationally accredited Level 1 Coach Certification Course in-person training of Heads Up Tackling techniques, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention concussion recognition and response, heat and hydration protocols and instruction on proper helmet and shoulder pad fitting.

Emails Reveal How Coca-Cola Shaped

Surprising virtually no one, Coca-Cola KO -2.38% appears to have wielded significant influence over the Global Energy Balance Network (GEBN), an anti-obesity group that it funded, according to emails obtained by the Associated Press (AP).

The GEBN describes itself as a voluntary public-private, not-for-profit organization dedicated to identifying and implementing innovative solutions based on the science of energy balance to prevent and reduce diseases associated with inactivity, poor nutrition and obesity. Critics have called it a soda-industry front group that funds scientists to shift the blame for obesity away from diet and onto lack of exercise.

snip

However, eye-opening exchanges between Hill, John Peters, another GEBN leader and professor at the University of Colorado School of Medicine and Coca-Cola executives like Rhona Applebaum, Cokes chief health and science officer demonstrate that the beverage maker was quite involved in shaping the groups strategy and development. And GEBNs leaders appeared more than happy to help Coca-Cola improve its image and promote exercise as the cause of obesity.

Lack of physical activity and lesser intake of fruits are taking a toll on the health of the residents of Punjab and making them more prone to non-communicable diseases (NCD) like obesity, hypertension, diabetes, etc, revealed a survey conducted by the PGIMER in some pockets of Punjab.

In 2014-2015, a total of 5,127 people in the age-group of 18-69 years were examined in a state-wide survey of NCD risk factors mainly diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, cancer and chronic lung diseases carried out by the Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research in association with Government Medical Colleges at Amritsar, Patiala, Faridkot, and Christian Medical College, Ludhiana.

The study demonstrated Punjab has a particularly high prevalence of NCD risk factors, present uniformly without any significant difference by gender or location. Punjab is the first state in the country to undertake this type of survey in the last decade, mentions the report submitted by the department of community medicine, PGIMER, to Vini Mahajan, principal secretary, health and family welfare, Punjab, on Friday.

Risk indicators high but people less concerned

The survey found the large section (80%) of the surveyed population was suffering from the belly fat problem.

Around 41% respondents were overweight or obese, and if waist circumference is considered, more than 80% were found overweight with central obesity (belly fat). Prevalence is comparable to obesity levels in many developed countries, mentions the report.

It was also found that majority of people were not indulged in physical activities, which could be a reason behind them being obese. About one third (31%) having low physical activity, with three forth of population not doing vigorous activity, points towards a growing epidemic of overweight and obesity, stated the report.

The survey also links insufficient physical activity with high prevalence of hypertension.

I. Jon Entine Introduction

220px-Entine_photoJon Entine is a media-savvy corporate propagandist and pseudo-journalist who fronts the opinions and positions of chemical corporations by pretending to be an independent journalist. He has ties to biotech companies Monsanto and Syngenta while playing a key role in another industry front group known as the American Council on Science and Health, a thinly-veiled corporate front group that Sourcewatch describes as holding a generally apologetic stance regarding virtually every other health and environmental hazard produced by modern industry, accepting corporate funding from Coca-Cola, Kellogg, General Mills, Pepsico, and the American Beverage Association, among others. (Sourcewatch.org)

Entine knowingly and repeatedly publishes false and fictitious information in mainstream publications including Forbes.com, and his posts are often retracted after being challenged on their lack of factual basis. His actions against targeted individuals or companies are systematically abusive and resemble revenge journalism. Entine takes a hit man approach to single out individuals especially critics of GMOs for accusations and abuse, often calling them names or implying they are sociopaths or a danger to society.

Entines deep involvement in the propaganda of poison-pushing corporations is also reflected in his own personal life, where he remains embattled in a bitter seven-year divorce during which he engaged in highly questionable behavior such as threatening his young daughters therapist with a lawsuit if he continued to provide therapy sessions. At one point during the divorce, Entines ex-wife pleaded with the court to demand a psychiatric evaluation of Entine, for which he refused to volunteer.

A protection order against Entine was issued by the courts in relation to his divorce battle.

II. Biography

Jon Entine is currently a visiting fellow at the American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research in Washington, D.C., a columnist for the British-based international magazine Ethical Corporation, and co-founder of E.S.G.Metrics, which advises business and NGOs on Environmental, Social, and Governance issues, including sustainability and executive leadership (Sourcewatch). His most recent clients have included KKR, The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Proctor & Gamble, American Greetings, Monsanto, DHL/Deutsche Post, Fischer Homes, and Pomeroy IT Solutions.

Entine writes for academic and popular publications around the world and is a frequent television and radio commentator on business issues, including CNN, MSNBC, Fox Business, NPR, and BBC. He has written and edited five books, most recently No Crime But Prejudice: Fischer Homes, the Immigration Fiasco, and Extra-judicial Prosecution (TFG Books, 2009), which focuses on the dangers of overzealous government prosecutors and the threat they pose to American civil liberties.

snip

Entine was the author of the commissioned book.

In 2011 the ACSH produced its companion friendlypaper called, Scared to Death: How Chemophobia Threatens Public Health.The book attacks the EPA and harmful, unnecessary regulationas well as the precautionary principle. It contains a chapter-long case studydefending atrazine, just as members of the Syngenta PR team had been seeking. (http://acsh.org/2011/01/scared-to-death/)

An investigative report by PR Watch also links Entine to the book:

http://www.prwatch.org/news/2012/02/11277/syngenta-pr%E2%80%99s-weed-
killer-spin-machine-investigating-press-and-shaping-news-about

Mother Jones magazine further reported:

CMDs investigation does not establish whether ACSH ever got Syngenta funding for that project. But CMD raises the possibility that Entines slim volume Scared to Death might be the very booklet that ACSHs executive director envisioned in his letter to Syngenta. Entine flat-out denied this suggestion in an email exchange. Syngenta is not a client and never has been. I have no clients in the agricultural or chemicals businesses, he wrote.

Michael F. Jacobson, the executive director for the Center for Science in the Public Interest, said this about the ACSH in a letter to the editor at the Washington Times: The group is a receptacle for payments from pharmaceutical, chemical, biotechnology, food and other companies who appreciate the convenience of having their grantees and former employees serve on government science panels.And the Center for Media and Democracy discovered that Syngentas public relations division operated in part to protect the companys lucrative sales of atrazine (in a two-part report here and here). Entines name shows up in these reports.

snip

VIII. Entine refuted

One of Entines books, Taboo: Why Black Athletes Dominate Sports and Why We Are Afraid to Talk About It,has been called the go-topiece of work for mainstream sports writers when the subject turns to race in sports. But in a scholarly work countering Entines claims, Ian B. Kerr from Western Michigan University concluded that science and genetic experimentation have proven that natural biological variation amongst and between peoples cannot be used to validate claims of innate racial superiority in athletic competition.

Kerr further notes:

When Entine does cite supposed geneticdata on the differences between Blacks and Whites, he is in fact citing biological data. These include studies on African fast twitch muscle fibers and development of motor skills. Entine includes these studies to demonstrate irrevocable proof of embedded genetic differences between populations but refuses to accept the fact that any differences may be due to environmental factors or training. Entine then is unfairly giving an undue strong preference to genetic factors while disregarding social and environmental factors (Harpalani, 2004).

Moreover, external differences like height or weight, which play an instrumental role in helping define an individuals athletic prowess, have not been proven to be exclusively rooted in biology or genetics. Genetic differences among people cannot solely account for why certain people are more athletic than others, as scientists cannot find any specific genetic markers that define the characteristics of athleticism (speed, height, strength) in one group or racemore than any other.

The Making of an Agribusiness Apologist

Earlier this month, Forbes.com published an op-ed by Jon Entine in which he purported to debunk Dashka Slater’s must-read recent Mother Jones profile of Tyrone Hayes, the UC Berkeley professor who found that tiny doses of the widely used herbicide atrazine affects frogs’ sexual development.

Entine, who describes himself as an “author, think tank scholar, leadership and sustainability consultant, media commentator, and public speaker on the DNA of human behavior,” accused Slater of blatantly overstating the dangers of atrazine, which shows up at low levels in drinking water in farming-intensive areas in the Midwest and South. According to Entine, as it’s currently used on American fields, atrazine poses no risks to people or farms. Entine called out Mother Jones for promoting “End of Days hysteria” and displaying “a devastating lack of respect for science.” Now, Entine’s critique of the science indicting atrazine is sophisticated and deserves to be answered. I have written critically about atrazine before, and much of Entine’s critique of Slater’s piece applies to my work as well. I’ll be digging into that in a forthcoming post.

But what caught my eye about Entine’s post in the first place is that his name had shown up in a recent report by the Center for Media and Democracy (part one, part two) about the efforts of Syngenta, the globe’s largest agribusiness firm and the maker of atrazine, to protect its lucrative chemical from possible regulatory action by the Environmental Protection Agency. EPA is currently reviewing the herbicide’s registration. Last year, a panel of independent scientists convened by the EPA recommended that the agency revise its assumption that atrazine is “unlikely to cause cancer.” Pointing to what it called “strong” epidemiological evidence linking atrazine to thyroid cancer, the panel states that the agency is currently acting with “inadequate information to assess carcinogenic potential.” The European Union banned atrazine in 2004, based mainly on its tendency to run off into drinking water. A similar move by the EPA would cut into Syngenta’s profits in the United States, where atrazine sells briskly as an herbicide for our massive corn crop.

The CMD’s report is based on Syngenta documents that show how the company’s PR operation has tried to influence news coveragewhile also keeping tabs on journalists who have reported on atrazine’s potential health risks. These internal documents, according to CMD, expose the company’s campaign “to influence the media, potential jurors, potential plaintiffs, farmers, politicians, scientists, and the Environmental Protection Agency.” One Syngenta document reveals that in 2009, the company toyed with the idea of obtaining “the services of a well-know [sic] investigative reporter to probe around the EPAAt the very minimum to utilize the advice of an Investigative Reporter to council [sic] us on what buttons to push and cages to rattle.”

Entine turned up in the Center for Media and Democracy’s investigation because last year he authored a book, published and promoted by the American Council on Science and Health, called Scared to Death: How Chemophobia Threatens Public Health. “In response to the growing level of chemophobiathe irrational fear of chemicalsamong the American public, ACSH compiled this resource book and position to educate legislators, industry, media, consumers and parents on the actual risks of chemical exposure and use in everyday products,” a press release for the book states. The book mounts a brief (nearly 30 of its 120 pages are bibliography) yet vigorous defense of industrial and agricultural chemical use, backed up by two case studies, one of which is on atrazine.

Syngenta has funded the American Council on Science and Health, CMD found. An email dated August 28, 2009 (PDF) from ACSH’s executive director to his “Syngenta friends” refers to the “general operating support Syngenta has been so generously providing over the years, which we request to continue at current or increased levels.” It adds: “Such general operating support is the lifeblood of a small non-profit like ours, and is both deeply appreciated and much needed.” The letter doesn’t specify the level at which the company has supported ACSH. The organization, according to CMD, has annual revenues of more than $2 million a year; its president, the high-profile pro-agrichemical polemicist Elizabeth Whelan, draws a salary of $350,000.

Genetic Literacy Project FROM The Truth Wiki

Genetic Literacy Project

FROM The Truth Wiki

http://www.truthwiki.org/genetic-literacy-project/

A GMO lobbying outfit funded by Monsanto, the Genetic Literacy Project is run by its Executive Director, the infamous Jon Entine, the worlds leading biotech shill and character assassination operative. Sporting financial ties to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, (1) Entine is a media-savvy corporate propagandist (2) and pseudo-journalist who uses the Genetic Literacy Project (GLP) website to front the opinions and positions of chemical-agriculture corporations while pretending to be an independent journalist. Entine also plays a key role in another industry front group known as the American Council on Science and Health (ACSH)(4), which is another thinly-veiled corporate front group that Sourcewatch has labeled as an environmental hazard apologist group that accepts funding from Coca-Cola, Pepsico, Kellogg, General Mills, and the American Beverage Association. The Genetic Literacy Project knowingly and repeatedly publishes false information about GMOs in their never-ending attempt to brainwash consumers into thinking genetically modified food crops are not a major detriment to human health and the environment. The GLP website participates in revenge journalism and character assassination attempts for any person or group that criticizes GMOs and chemical agriculture practices. Jon Entine has no science background to speak of, but enlists the help of public scientists, academics and sell out journalists, like himself, who will say and write anything Monsanto suggests, as revealed in thousands of emails recently dredged up by the U.S. Right to Know group via their Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests available right here. (3)

Biotechnology or agri-chemical-technology is warping farming, mutating food and infecting medicine. No longer can the American consumer walk into a grocery or supermarket and blindly choose from fruits, vegetables and packaged goods and expect to get quality food thats not infused with deadly pesticides, including herbicides, insecticides and fungicides. Food security is at an all-time high threat level, and websites like GLP fully intend to convolute the truth about this synthetic biology thats dominating the food supply and feeding the (preventable) food-driven diseases, disorders and epidemics, such as cancer, Alzheimers, Parkinsons, heart disease, strokes, diabetes, fibromyalgia, autism spectrum disorder, osteoporosis and arthritis. Genetic engineering is leading to unintended consequences and major ethical challenges, and Jon Entines job is to cover all of this up with rhetoric and twisted industry jargon.

GMOs are NOT an advancement of science, but a health and environmental detriment

Though the advancement of science realms such as surgery, space exploration and microbiology are beneficial to humans, national security and the environment, respectively, biotechnology refers to using chemicals to fight off insects, weeds and fungus while polluting the food supply and killing plants, farm animals and human beings alike. This is not an advancement of science, and it is the ultimate goal of GLP to dissuade and coerce concerned consumers otherwise. Functioning as a part of the Science Literacy Project, the GLP is supposed to promote public awareness of science literacy, as they accept donations from several sources. Under the biotechnology dropdown menu on the GLP website, it states that genetics has been used to improve agriculture, food production and medicine for thousands of years, but transgenics means that plants or animals now carry foreign genes that have been deliberately inserted into their genome using recombinant DNA methodology, which does NOT happen in Mother nature. Herein lies the danger of inserting chemicals into food or deforming animals or humans, since this technology is only in its infancy. Entine and his cohorts (6) (7) (8) main goal is to confuse concerned consumers with industry lingo and quell their fears so they will support this dangerous, unchartered technology. Some recent article headlines on GLP include, Eating local proving not sustainable and Future biotech needs to address public fears, doubts.

Then, GLP includes and provides external resources and links that further support their propaganda, in order to look official, sourced and reliable. These other propaganda websites include Biology Fortified or (Biofortified), the GMO Pundit David Tribe, the exposed public scientist and Monsanto huckster from University of FloridaKevin Folta, Discovers biotech shill Keith Kloor, and blogs by Grists Nathanael Johnson.

GLPs favorite motto is that GM foods are a key tool in helping to address the challenge of feeding a growing and more prosperous population, and improving the global standard of living today and for future generations. This is pure propaganda, as the only way GMOs address population concerns is by killing off millions of humans with diseases and disorders caused by consuming chemical pesticides. This is something Bill Gates endorses, including using vaccinations, per his own speech at a TED conference. (5)

In actuality, the use of GMOs costs farmers even more money than conventional methods of farming, compromises the global standard of living for future generations, cripples companies as they must rely 100% on biotech corporations for seeds and toxic herbicides, propels the growth of superweeds and the infestation of superbugs that are now immune to the very toxic pesticides that the crops are infused with by companies like Monsanto, Dow, Bayer, Dupont, BASF, Cargill and Syngenta. This is a total compromise of global food security and puts the health of millions of people at high risk. Top it off with the fact that GM seeds die every year and must be replaced with new ones. Plus, GMOs can raise greenhouse gas emissions as more and more corporations use the CAFO methods of raising animals, where they keep them indoors and feed them GM feed, synthetic growth hormones and treat them unethically. Nothing about GMO is sustainable or healthy, but websites like GLP are constructed and maintained to push the exact opposite perception.

Even just a few altered genes or traits can lead to irreversible, contagious pest and plant diseases. Scientists, biologists and farmers have discovered GM traits in fields that never grew GMO and where GMO is not even legal to grow. Humans should not even be consuming rapeseed (canola), yet 90% of US canola is GMO. Currently, there are over 400 million acres of GM crops worldwide. GM seeds are banned in Europe and Russia now, where the governments are trying to protect their people from disease and disorder, but in the United States, where healthcare is a total sham, GMO is pushed and pushed hard via propaganda websites like the Genetic Literacy Project.

The Battle against GMOs in the Philippines:
Confronting the WTOs Attempts to Destabilize Sustainable Agriculture

The Philippines has become a GMO battlefield, with the small farmers and organic farming advocates on one hand and the Philippine government with pro-GMO scientists on the other hand. The Philippine government is showing its cooptation to the neoliberal agenda of transnational biotechnology corporations and the World Trade Organization which protects TNCs interests in its approval of the importation of 60 genetically modified plants and plant products for direct use as food and feed or for processing, an additional eight GM plant varieties for propagation, and 21 modified plant varieties for field testing in Philippine soil.

Alarmingly, despite concerns about BT corns impact on the environment, it now has 750,000 hectares of Philippine land devoted to it. According to Greenpeace Southeast Asia spokesman Daniel Ocampo, no GMO application has ever been rejected, which is very shocking and alarming given the controversy over their use. This makes the Philippines the country in Southeast Asia having the most number of genetically modified (GMO) crops approved by the government for human consumption, animal feed, propagation, and field trial, according to Greenpeace (InterAksyon.com, 2012).

Most of the approved GMOs are genetically altered corn, soybean, potato, sugar beet, canola, and alfalfa. The purpose of the genetic alteration is for these crops to resist pests and herbicide, delay ripening, and enhance their nutritional value. The one that gained the most attention and the greatest resistance was the field testing of golden rice, genetically modified rice artificially inserted with genes from a bacteria and corn to produce beta carotene, a precursor of Vitamin A. In August 2013, around 400 farmers stormed the field testing area of golden rice in Pili, Camarines Sur and uprooted the genetically modified golden rice. The farmers, members of the anti-GMO alliance SIKWAL-GMO, contended that far from benefitting farmers, Golden Rice will contaminate native rice crops and pose risks to public health and the environment (Ranada, 2013).

The Real Score behind Golden Rice and other GMOs

Why so much uproar against GMOs? Are GMOs really the solution to hunger and the way to food security? Pro-GMO scientists, of course, would say that GMOs are the way to solve hunger, malnutrition, and food the way to food security. But are GMOs really the way to such or the way to greater health and environmental damage?

Walden Bello (2013) explained cogently the case against GMOs in his article Manila Opens Doors to GMO Products. First, genetic engineering disrupts the precise sequence of a foods genetic code and disturbs the functions of neighboring genes, which can give rise to potentially toxic or allergenic molecules or even alter the nutritional value of food produced. Bt corn, for instance, the first GMO allowed to be planted in the Philippine, releases its own insecticide as it contains the gene of a bacteria that can resist pests, or Bt toxin. This Bt toxin was recently detected in the blood of pregnant women and their babies, with possibly harmful consequences.

A second objection concerns genetic contamination. Once released in the open, a GMO crop can reproduce via pollination and interact genetically with natural varieties of the same crop, producing what is called genetic contamination. In Oaxaca, Mexcio, Bt (Bacillus thurengiensis) corn has contaminated indigenous varieties of corn as published in Nature, one of the worlds leading scientific journals.

Third, a GMO may have a toxic or lethal impact on other living things when brought into natural surroundings. One gruesome example of this was the finding that Bt corn destroyed the larvae of the monarch butterfly, causing many to fear, for a good reason, that many other natural plant and animal life may be impacted in the same way.

Fourth, multinational biotechnology corporations like Monsanto and Syngenta, which develop and sell GMO seeds and crops, have oversold the benefits of GMOs without taking into consideration the health and environmental risks and harm posed by such organisms.

A fifth and very strong argument is that patented GMO seeds concentrate power in the hands of a few biotech corporations, which is oppressive and inimical to small farmers.

Ban on GMO Imports Ordered by Top Court

http://www.reuters.com/article/us-philippines-gmo-idUSKBN0U00O520151217

The Philippine government said it will challenge a ban on GMO imports ordered by the country’s top court, after the ruling rattled global markets this week over the threat of disruption to millions of tonnes of soybean meal shipments.

Last week, the Supreme Court struck down a 2002 government regulation that allowed the import of genetically modified organisms (GMO) and imposed a temporary ban until new rules were formulated.

The order will halt the Southeast Asian country’s imports of soybean meal, which amount to around two million tonnes a year and mainly come from the United States. Nearly all of the imports of the animal feed are genetically modified.

The Supreme Court’s decision to temporarily ban the “contained use, field testing, propagation and commercialization, and importation” of GMO came alongside a ruling to permanently halt the development of GMO eggplant following a case filed by a group led by the Philippine unit of Greenpeace Southeast Asia.

“What the Supreme Court is saying, I was informed, is to come up with new rules,” Philippine Agriculture Secretary Proceso Alcala said by telephone on Thursday.

“In the meantime, there will be a motion for reconsideration to be filed once we have received a copy of the decision.”

Such a request would mean there should be no ban while the new rules are being drafted, he added.

Front-month soymeal on the Chicago Board of Trade extended a recent rout to hit their lowest in more than five years at $267.20 per short ton on Thursday, with traders blaming the latest falls on the Philippine court ruling.

Now, the Reddekopps and their kids are running the Hawaiian Vanilla Co., which draws island visitors for vanilla-infused luncheons and tours of the 20-acre farm.

“It’s like welcoming people into our home,” he says.

Hawaii is known for its stunning beaches and resorts, but beyond the surf and sand, there’s an abundance of agricultural land that many travelers don’t think to explore.

Farming sugar, cattle, pineapples, and coffee began in the early 19th century. Sugar is no longer a viable industry, but Hawaiians have turned their attention to a more diverse bounty.

The state has 7,000 farms and more than 1.1 million acres of land in production, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. In addition to cattle and coffee, these farms produce such goods as vanilla, mushrooms, lavender and even pineapple wine.

“There’s a historical precedent and rich tradition of agriculture here,” says Richard Liebmann, owner of Lokahi Garden Sanctuary, a wellness retreat center and organic farm on the Big Island.

Liebmann, a naturopathic physician, and his wife Natalie Young, a massage therapist, are growing more than 250 species of plants on their farm.

“Some are edible, some are medicinal and some are just beautiful to look at,” he says.

The garden is located in the historic North Kohala community on the Big Island. In addition to growing plants, the couple tend to many animals, including chickens, sheep and a cow on 10 lush acres with sweeping ocean views. They offer walking tours as well as longer retreats, spa treatments and healthy meals.

“We really like this rural lifestyle,” he says.

Jane Holmes is also enjoying that lifestyle at the Hamakua Heritage Farm in the rural community of Laupahoehoe, where mushrooms known as alii and pioppini sprout in jars.

The specialty exotic mushrooms are grown in a mixture of corncob, wheat bran and grandis eucalyptus sawdust called substrate. The bottle cultivation method originated in Japan.

Use of Residues from Agriculture and Forestry as Energy Sources

The sustainability of growing crops for use as energy sources has been disputed for many years. A potentially attractive alternative is to use waste and residues from agricultural and forestry. However, using waste and other residues may have an impact on land use, biodiversity and food security. The additional sources of income from the sale of waste and other residues could prompt an increase in the production of crops and wood. LEI has investigated the potential impact of the large-scale use of waste from agriculture and forestry on land use and food security.

The use of crops as energy sources can have indirect land use change impacts (ILUC), generating greenhouse gas emissions and affecting biodiversity. The extra demand for crops can spark an increase in food prices and lead to a deterioration in food security. In light of this, this year the European Commission decided to limit the proportion of biofuels produced from agricultural crops to 7% of the total use of transport fuels within the framework of Directive 2009/28/EC on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources.

Use of waste and residues as an alternative to crops

An attractive alternative is the use of waste and other residues from agriculture and forestry, such as straw, peels, husks and fruit stones. Various studies have demonstrated this alternative to possess sufficient potential for sustainable energy production that it could cover a considerable amount of the future demand for biomass for energy production. These studies factored in theoretical, technical and economic factors that limit the potential of residues. They also considered the future demand for waste and residues for other applications, such as paper production and animal feed. The studies also demonstrated that part of the residues from agriculture must not be removed from the field in order to maintain the soil’s fertility.

Impact on land use, biodiversity and food security

San Bernardino Shooter’s Friend
Charged with Supporting Terrorism for Plotting Other Attacks

SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. Enrique Marquez Jr., who bought the assault rifles used in a terrorist attack that killed 14 people this month, was charged Thursday with conspiring to carry out two other attacks in 2012, federal officials said.

Marquez and Syed Rizwan Farook, one of the shooters on Dec. 2, had planned to attack other targets in Southern California, including a nearby community college and highway, according to a criminal complaint.

The documents provide the clearest look yet not only of Marquez but also of Farook, who died in a shootout with police after the massacre. Farook was interested in violent extremism at least two years before he and his future wife, Tashfeen Malik, corresponded online about waging violent jihad, according to Marquezs account to the government.

The charges against Marquez are the first to stem from the investigation into the massacre, the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil since Sept. 11, 2001.

The FBI arrested Marquez, 24, and he made his first court appearance in Riverside, Calif., later in the day. Marquez, who had not been seen since becoming the focus of the investigation, appeared in a beige T-shirt, handcuffed and with a chain around his waist. He seemed relaxed, leaning back in his chair, and said he understood the charges against him. He answered Yes when asked whether he had read the complaint and understood it.

Farook and Marquez never attempted to carry out their earlier plans, but their plotting reached a high level of detail.

In their plan to attack Route 91, a heavily trafficked road that runs through the heart of Riverside, the two men first considered throwing pipe bombs into the road to stop traffic, the FBI alleges. Authorities say they even scoped out a hill where one could watch for approaching law enforcement after the bombs exploded while the other moved among the stopped vehicles, firing into cars and killing motorists.

Drug C.E.O. Martin Shkreli Arrested on Fraud Charges

By JULIE CRESWELL, STEPHANIE CLIFFORD and ANDREW POLLACK

December 17, 2015

New York Times

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/18/business/shkreli-fraud-charges.html

It has been a busy week for Martin Shkreli, the flamboyant businessman at the center of the drug industrys price-gouging scandals.

He said he would sharply increase the cost of a drug used to treat a potentially deadly parasitic infection. He called himself the worlds most eligible bachelor on Twitter and railed against critics in a live-streaming YouTube video. After reportedly paying $2 million for a rare Wu-Tang Clan album, he goaded a member of the hip-hop group to show me some respect.

Then, at 6 a.m. Thursday, F.B.I. agents arrested Mr. Shkreli, 32, at his Murray Hill apartment. He was arraigned in Federal District Court in Brooklyn on securities fraud and wire fraud charges.

In a statement, a spokesman for Mr. Shkreli said he was confident that he would be cleared of all charges.

Mr. Shkreli has emerged as a symbol of pharmaceutical greed for acquiring a decades-old drug used to treat an infection that can be devastating for babies and people with AIDS and, overnight, raising the price to $750 a pill from $13.50. His only mistake, he later conceded, was not raising the price more.

Those price increases combined with Mr. Shkrelis jeering response to his critics has made him a lightning rod for public outrage and fodder for the presidential campaign. His company, Turing Pharmaceuticals, and others, like Valeant Pharmaceuticals, have come under fire from lawmakers and consumers for profiting from steep price increases for old drugs.

But the criminal charges brought against him actually relate to something else entirely his time as a hedge fund manager and when he ran his first biopharmaceutical company, Retrophin. Federal officials described his crimes as a quasi-Ponzi scheme in which he used money from his company to pay off money-losing investors in his hedge funds. An F.B.I. official called his business schemes a securities fraud trifecta of lies, deceit and greed.

Facts and Figures About the Wanamaker Organ

http://www.wanamakerorgan.com/about.php

Wanamaker, John

Born: July 11, 1838, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Died: December 12, 1922, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Vocations: Merchant, Religious Leader, Postmaster General

Geographic Connection to Pennsylvania: Philadelphia, Philadelphia County

Abstract: John Wanamaker was born on July 11, 1838,

in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. At the age of 23, he

opened his first clothing store, and he went on to start

his own line of retail shops, known as Wanamaker’s.

He is considered the father of modern advertising and

was also a United States Postmaster General from

1889 to 1893. He was also the first full time paid secretary

for the YMCA from 1858 to 1861. In 1859, he founded

the Bethany Sunday School in Philadelphia, which became

the largest Sunday School in the country at the time.

Wanamaker is well known for his famous words on

advertising: “Half the money I spend on advertising is

wasted; the trouble is I don’t know which half.”

Wanamaker died on December 12, 1922,

in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The Culture

World’s largest working pipe organ is in … Macy’s

Before there was Muzak, there was the Wanamaker.

Newly restored, it restores the shopper’s mood.

By By Mary Beth McCauley, Correspondent

October 15, 2008

Christian Science Monitor

http://tinyurl.com/ozcbkvh

“When you see the Wanamaker organ soar

heavenward, you want to look around for

the rest of the cathedral. When its sound

makes pillars tremble, you know it speaks

for the powers above. But where stained

glass windows should be – there is ladies

apparel. In the would-be pews, people are

trying on boots. And that scent wafting

through the air is not votive candles,

it’s Chanel No. 5.

Wait. This is no church. This is … Macy’s?”

Here, occupying prime retail space, there

are nearly 30,000 organ pipes in chambers

towering up through seven floors, making

the Wanamaker the largest operating pipe

organ in the world. For precious square

footage to be given over thus is rare.

Even modest organs tend to be located not

in stores but in churches, private homes,

or municipal buildings; built by the

Los Angeles Art Organ Company,

the Wanamaker is one of only two known

department-store organs in the world.”

snip

“Last month when the Philadelphia Orchestra

visited for a joint Saturday evening benefit

concert, part of a Macy’s 150-year anniversary

program, the pristine organ showed her stuff.

Together, the organ and orchestra, with

Grand Court organist Peter Richard Conte at

the console, performed Joseph Jongen’s

“Symphonie Concertante,” an organ-orchestra

piece written for the Wanamaker organ back in

1926 but never played on the instrument for

which it was commissioned. The orchestra’s

Rossen Milanov, who conducted, saw the concert

as “a once-in-a-lifetime chance,” the first time the

orchestra and organ played together since the days

when the great conductor Leopold Stokowski would

bring his orchestra to Wanamaker’s in the 1920s.”

BALTIMORE Jurors deliberated more than 16 hours over three days but still could not reach a verdict in the trial of the first officer to face prosecution in Freddie Grays death, forcing an already-weary Baltimore to continue waiting for any resolution in a case that has strained the city for months.

Hours after Baltimore Circuit Court Judge Barry G. Williams declared a mistrial on Wednesday, court officials announced that he would meet with attorneys Thursday to determine a new trial date.

Perhaps no outcome could have better represented the mood here, where residents are deeply divided about what led to and who should be held responsible for the fatal neck injury Gray suffered in the back of a police van in April. Riots ripped through West Baltimore on the day of his funeral as the incident became a defining moment in the national movement protesting the treatment of African Americans by law enforcement.

The jury made up of what appeared to be seven black and five white members failed to reach unanimity on a single charge after hearing two weeks of passionate legal arguments and contradictory witness testimony, leaving prosecutors to try Officer William G. Porter a second time. He has pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter, second-degree assault, misconduct in office and reckless endangerment.

Outraged by the news, more than 100 protesters confronted deputies in downtown Baltimore on Wednesday night. But Grays family which in September agreed to a $6.4 million wrongful death settlement from the city pleaded with residents to stay patient and let the judicial process work.

Once again, we are asking the public to remain calm, the family said in a statement. If we are calm, you should be calm too.

The mistrial, legal experts said, may upend prosecutors plans to quickly try the five other officers who have been charged in the case.

The vans driver, Officer Caesar R. Goodson Jr., is scheduled to go on trial Jan. 6, when he will face the cases most serious charge: depraved-heart second-degree murder.

The drug and device industry now funds six times more clinical trials than the federal government, according to Johns Hopkins University researchers.

That means companies with financial interests in the studies now have more control over what doctors and patients learn about new treatments.

Clinical trials test new therapies on humans for safety and effectiveness before they are approved for wide use.

While the companies are expected to pay for trials of their products, studies exclusively funded by them can be narrow or even biased, said Dr. Stephan Ehrhardt, the Johns Hopkins study leader. This was less of a concern in the past because industry-funded research wasn’t the dominant source of information. It’s a different story today.

“When looking at the numbers, I see an imbalance,” said Ehrhardt, an associate professor in the Bloomberg School of Public Health’s Department of Epidemiology. “Industry doesn’t fund trials most important for public health because they have no incentive to do that.”

The trend emerged as the budget for the National Institutes of Health the primary source of government funding for clinical trials has been slashed 14 percent since 2006 amid belt-tightening in Washington.

The funding pinch has been acutely felt at Johns Hopkins, which receives the largest share of NIH money of all academic institutions.

Mark Grayson, a spokesman for the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, or PhRMA, which represents the country’s large biopharmaceutical researchers and biotechnology companies, said companies are not only finding important new therapies but adhering to voluntary principles that outline ethics and sharing of clinical information.

“Pharmaceutical companies are committed to conducting rigorous clinical trials and communicating those results,” said Grayson. “Clinical trials are important to determining the efficacy and safety of the medicines patients need.”

Abstract

Internet surveying continues to grow in tourism and leisure research. Internet surveying, according to the literature, has a number of advantages; it saves time and money, data entry is direct, it reaches a larger population, and the response rate is higher than that of other methods. Despite such advantages, it would be premature to proclaim its replacing of mail surveying. This study aims to identify any significant differences in procedures between Internet and mail surveys.

As part of a wine tourism research project, researchers distributed either Internet-based or mail paper-based surveys to 3,649 participants. Participants were recruited by tasting room operators from 15 wineries in northern Michigan. A comparison study looked at the respondents preferred survey procedures and differences between the response rates and response content of the two procedures. Results show that, indeed, the response rate, profiles of respondents, and visitor experience questions differ according to procedure.

snip

It is possible to
explain that Internet survey respondents tend to be younger and more active buyers when it comes to buying wine at a
tasting room. Moreover, the result from satisfaction-related questions demonstrated no significant difference at the 0.05
level between the two survey methods. Although none of the six customer satisfaction questions was statistically
significant, there was a clear pattern to the result. Mail survey respondents indicated a slightly higher response for every
customer satisfaction question. In other words, mail survey respondents tended to indicate a great deal of satisfaction in
the context of wine tasting room experience.

However, this study offers a unique opportunity to examine differences in response when participants are given a choice of procedures. We found there was a much higher preference for the Internet procedure over the mail survey.

The results of this study will inform future survey research projects where a choice of procedures is possible. For a future study, this study can offer several recommendations. The significant differences of response rate between two survey modes could be demonstrated more clearly if random sampling is used. Additionally, it is recommended that including more comparison variables will indicate the difference more distinctly. 6.0 References

How Trump Is Beating the Koch Brothers

After shunning the GOP for decades, Charles and David Koch tried to take it over. And then The Donald came to town

The Republican Partys ongoing civil war involves lots of fireworks and subplots, but the overarching fight is between two visions and three billionaires.

Charles and David Koch are investing hundreds of millions of dollars to take over the GOP and push America toward libertarianism. Donald Trump joined the Republican Party to run for president and push the country in the opposite direction, toward populist nationalism.

Tragically, the Koch brothers mistakes are steadily handing victory to The Donald.

Many voters might be surprised to learn that the men are so different. After all, they bear some similarities. They inherited wealth, extended their dads businesses, and became three of the richest people in the world. They treat each other politely; David and Donald, for instance, have socialized together in Florida. And of course, all three are trying to shape the Republican Partys future.

On substance, however, the men could hardly be more different. On most economic issues, Donald Trump resembles the Italian media billionaire Silvio Berlusconi. Berlusconi filled his political career with offensive jokes about women, immigrants, Muslims, as well as false assertions about foreign affairs and hostility to the media. In his nine years running Italy, The Economist reported that he showed a total disregard for the economic condition of his country with results that will haunt Italy for years to come.

The parallels to Trump are eerie. Trumps campaign trades regularly in false and misleading claims, including lies about immigrants, lies about vaccines, a defense of entitlement spending, and a demand for trade protectionism. Taken together, this racist, nativist, anti-science package would bring America closer to fascism than any time in its history. Incidentally, it would also cripple the U.S. budget and economy, as well as the global economy.

With the significant but specific exceptions of climate change and health reform, the Koch brothers critique of Washington is almost the exact opposite of Trumps. Indeed, with those important exceptions aside, the average Jon Stewart fan would probably agree with the Koch brothers more than Hillary Clinton on a wide array of issues.

From the 1960s through the George W. Bush administration, Charles and David Koch were fierce critics of the GOP. David Koch, in fact, was the Libertarian Party candidate for vice president in 1980 the year Ronald Reagan was first elected. The brothers founded and funded think tanks that opposed the Vietnam War, the Patriot Act, prison-building, homophobic marriage laws, corporate subsidies, deficit spending, and many other GOP positions.

Unlike Trumps platform, this set of ideas has been thoroughly developed by diverse thinkers from libertarians to moderate thinkers in both parties. It is a promising platform for governance, and the Koch brothers had spent decades patiently bringing it to fruition.

At least, that was their strategy until 2008, when they panicked and changed course.

The root cause was those two thorny policy areas where they actually do agree with Trump: climate change and health reform. Charles and David feared that Obama would socialize medicine, overreact on climate change, and crash the economy. As a result, they discarded their careful libertarian strategy and created a monster: They heavily backed the GOP by funding a quasi-grassroots rage campaign known today as the Tea Party movement, built to attack Obama and Democrats.

In the short term, this Koch investment clearly failed. The Tea Party failed to block either of Obamas election victories; failed to block healthcare reform; failed to block health-care implementation; and failed to block executive action on climate change. By attacking the Democratic Party directly, the Koch brothers dragged their own brand into the political arenaexactly the result they initially wanted to avoid.

Fresh off the fourth GOP presidential debate, Ben Carson became the fourth presidential candidate to pay a visit to Jerry Falwells Liberty University Wednesday morning, where the fervently religious presidential aspirant warned that secular progressives are one of the nations biggest threats and complained, once again, that the news media has conspired to take his campaign down.

Carson warmed up to the students gathered for the mandatory convocation by telling him that that he was once a horrible student who never learned much from boring lectures.

Everyone called me dummy, that was my nickname Carson told the crowd, laughing at the naysayers who doubted his ability.Everyone called me and dummy and I believed it too.

Carson said he was so motivated to become a doctor that he would gladly sacrifice a shot just so I could smell the alcohol swipes in the doctors office, before thanking his mother for eventually guiding him to success.

He then launched into the religious meat of his address. We have so many people now who are trying to push God out of our lives. They take the word of God and try to negate it.

Well let me tell you, our nations survival as the pinnacle nation in the world, I believe is rooted in our values system, the values and principles that made us into a great nation, Carson declared.

The real question is are we willing to stand up for those values and principles, or will we allow ourselves to be intimidated by the secular progressives? Carson asked before warning against the true threat to American democracy apparently not Islamic terrorism as Jeb Bush claimed during last nights debate, but so-called secular progressives.

The secular progressives dont care whether you agree with them or not, as long as you sit down and keep your mouth shut, and I think that the secret to the prosperity in this nation is we must be willing to stand up for what we believe in.

Why does Planned Parenthood draw so much fire? Hint: it has something to do with sexism.

Jonathan Eig

USA Today

http://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2015/08/05/ americas-war-women-column/31089541/

A shorter URL for the above link:

With members of Congress calling for an end to funding for Planned Parenthood, its worth asking why this organization keeps drawing so much fire.

Progressive sex and gender reform is sweeping the country. At the same time, conservatives and liberals largely agree that access to contraception reduces teen pregnancy and abortion. So why do reproductive rights continue to incite such anger?

History suggests that sexism has much to do with it.

Its been almost 100 years since Margaret Sanger opened her first birth-control clinic. Ever since, she and the organization she founded, Planned Parenthood, have been under attack not always from religious groups and not always by conservatives, but almost always by men.

During Sangers long career, she was criticized for being a bad parent and an adulteress. In recent years, shes been labeled a racist, too. I would argue that she wasnt a racist, but thats not the point. The point is that Sanger faced charges seldom leveled at male crusaders.

Sanger was arrested for distributing contraception and information about contraception at a time when anti-pornography laws made it illegal to do so. In some instances, conservative activists entrapped her associates, mailing them contraceptives and then arresting them for accepting delivery.

Now politicians are criticizing Planned Parenthood because of a series of surreptitiously recorded videos purporting to show that the organization sells tissue from aborted fetuses. It does not appear that Planned Parenthood did anything remotely illegal, and its leaders say the organization never profited from the sale of fetal tissue.

The attacks on Planned Parenthood are based on emotion, contrived by people who would like to see the organization put out of business and women lose access to reliable birth control and safe abortions.

Clinically trained social workers are the nations largest group of mental health service providers. Social work is considered one of the five core mental health professions by federal law and National Institutes of Health. With more than 200,000 in the field, there are more clinical social workers than psychologists, psychiatrists, and psychiatric nurses combined.

Who Are Social Workers?

Social workers are highly trained professionals working to improve the quality of life and well-being of others through direct practice, crisis intervention, research, community organizing, policy change, advocacy, and educational programs. Social workers are dedicated to the pursuit of social justice and strive to help those affected by poverty, disabilities, illnesses, divorce, unemployment, and other personal problems and social disadvantages.

Being a social worker requires extensive knowledge of human behavior and development, as well as social, cultural, and economic institutions and the ways in which they interact. Most social workers will hold at least a bachelors degree in social work or related field, though many (especially clinicians) will hold a masters degree and valid license to practice.

A good social worker will often possess a high degree of compassion and empathy, a passion for helping others, strong interpersonal and problem-solving skills, and good listening and organizational skills.
