FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: April 3rd, 2017
UNION, N.J. – For a second straight year, the Kean University Gospel Choir has been selected to compete in the Adult Choir Category at McDonald's Gospelfest, an annual Mother's Day weekend event in Newark. Last year, the Kean Gospel Choir took first place in the competition. Gospelfest 2017 will be held at the Prudential Center on Saturday, May 13, at 4 p.m.
"The choir is extremely proud to have the opportunity to represent Kean University for a second consecutive year on such a large stage," said Danielle Thomas, president of the Kean Gospel Choir. "We hope that our voices will inspire others, as we are inspired by all of the talent each year at Gospelfest."
In addition to placing first in last year's competition, the choir was featured on Fox 5's Good Day Street Talk in April 2016. The choir is active on Kean's campus, performing at events such as Remembering the Dream, the ceremony honoring the anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s visit to Kean, Black Love hosted by Pan-African Student Union and many others. In December 2016, the choir partnered with Kean's Haitian Student Association to present Kean Gospelfest. The event, a first of its kind at Kean, drew a crowd of over 600 to Wilkins Theater.
The Kean University Gospel Choir promotes and provides an outlet for students to express their faith through gospel music. All students can join the group, regardless of their knowledge of gospel music or level of musical ability. The choral group encourages positive attitudes among all members, respecting all gifts, and raises the consciousness of the Kean community toward a greater understanding and appreciation of gospel music.
McDonald's Gospelfest attracts more than 16,000 attendees each year. This year's lineup includes some of gospel music's greatest talent, including Hezekiah Walker, Erica Campbell of the duo Mary Mary, Donnie McClurkin, Israel Houghton, Bishop Paul Morton, Anthony Brown and Group Therapy, and Greater Allen A.M.E Cathedral Mass Choir led by the Rev. Floyd Flake.
Founded in 1855, Kean University has become one of the largest metropolitan institutions of higher education in the region, with a richly diverse student, faculty and staff population. Kean continues to play a key role in the training of teachers and is a hub of educational, technological and cultural enrichment serving nearly 15,000 students. The University's five undergraduate colleges offer more than 50 undergraduate degrees over a full range of academic subjects. The Nathan Weiss Graduate College offers four doctoral degree programs and more than 60 options for graduate study leading to master's degrees, professional diplomas or certifications. With campuses in Union and Toms River, New Jersey, and Wenzhou, China, Kean University furthers its mission by providing an affordable and accessible world-class education. Visit www.kean.edu.

Putting the D.C. in DeCriminalization
While Washington state grabbed news headlines last week with the opening of its first retail cannabis stores, on the east coast, the other Washington just got a whole lot more 420-friendly as well. Beginning July 16, possession of one ounce or less became subject to a $25 fine, rather than a lengthy and expensive entanglement in the justice system and possible jail time.
D.C. police are undergoing a major attitude adjustment, as the law now requires them to issue a simple $25 ticket for possession of one ounce or less of cannabis. Since the D.C. police have the highest cannabis arrest rate in the nation (91% of which are arrests of African Americans), this is quite the paradigm shift.
Just keep in mind: Public smoking of cannabis is still a misdemeanor, however, punishable with jail.
Members of Congress have tried to block implementation of this major law reform by tacking on an amendment to an appropriations bill that quashes DC's new law. But the DC city council gained a powerful ally when the White house issued a statement indicating that the president will veto an appropriations bill unless an amendment is removed that attempts to block DC from implementing its cannabis decriminalization law.
The White House statement reads, "[T]he administration strongly opposes the language in the bill preventing the District from using its own local funds to carry out locally-passed marijuana policies, which again undermines the principles of states' rights and of District home rule."
Drug Policy Alliance's website calls D.C.'s decriminalization groundbreaking: "By setting a $25 fine, which is the lowest civil fine for possession among 18 states that have decriminalized small amounts of marijuana, D.C. lawmakers cited the need to be responsive to social factors such as homelessness in the District and high rates of poverty in Wards that have seen the greatest number of marijuana arrests.
"In order to reduce racially-biased stop-and-frisks, this new law contains a provision that prohibits a police officer from using the smell of marijuana as a pretext for conducting criminal searches — the first decriminalization legislation in the country to do so.
"The new law also shields people caught with a small amount of marijuana from collateral consequences like being denied public assistance or having their D.C. issued drivers' license suspended or revoked. This decriminalization law is viewed by both D.C. council members and advocates as a model for other jurisdictions looking to reduce racial disparities in the criminal justice system."
Patients Get More Access in D.C. Too
Last week, it also became much easier for patients to qualify for D.C.'s medical marijuana program. On Tuesday, the D.C. city council approved legislation that replaces a restrictive list of defined illnesses with a blanket authority given to doctors to recommend medical cannabis for "any condition for which treatment with medical marijuana would be beneficial, as determined by the patient's physician."
Cannabis Sentencing Reform Could Reduce Current Sentences
Also in the nation's capitol, the U.S. Sentencing Commission just voted unanimously for sentencing reform that by their own estimation could make 46,000 men and women serving time in federal prison for drug offenses eligible for early release. The passed amendment cuts sentencing terms by an average of 25 months in the sentencing guidelines for federal judges. Congress has until November 1 to block the amendment. Eligible offenders must ask courts to reduce their sentences based on the new guidelines, and can be released starting November 1, 2015.
More Access to Financing for Cannabis Industry
Additionally, the U.S. House of Representatives approved an amendment this Wednesday that will make it easier for legitimate marijuana businesses operating in states where the drug has been legalized to obtain financial services. The House passed the "Heck amendment" — to the H.R. 5016 spending bill by a vote of 231-192. The amendment blocks the Securities and Exchange Commission and Treasury Department from spending money to penalize banks and other financial institutions for working with pot businesses that do not break state law.
The bill lists by name all states which have now passes some form of law allowing for some uses of medical canabis, including CBD-only laws. Those states now number 33, plus the District of Columbia. The measure must also be approved by the U.S. senate and signed by the president in order to take effect.
The amendment reads:
"None of the funds made available in this Act may be used, with respect to the States of Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, Washington, or Wisconsin or the District of Columbia, to prohibit, penalize, or otherwise discourage a financial institution from providing financial services to an entity solely because the entity is a manufacturer, producer, or person that participates in any business or organized activity that involves handling marijuana or marijuana products and engages in such activity pursuant to a law established by a State or a unit of local government."
LA Cannabis Farmer's Market Hit With Restraining Order
Previously, the Cannabis Report brought you the story on the success of the first day of LA's first cannabis farmers market. Last week, the California Heritage Market was slapped with a temporary restraining order requested by LA's city attorney and granted by an LA County Superior Court Judge. A hearing is set for August 6 to decide the market's fate.
The city attorney argued that the market violates Measure D, passed by voters in May of 2013. Measure D limits LA's number of legal dispensaries to 134 — although the city has not succeeded in shutting down all of the estimated 800-1000 LA dispensaries that are not approved under the measure.
The cannabis farmers market is run by by one of the 134 legal dispensaries, West Coast Collective. The collectives attorney David Welch told LA Weekly that all the 30 vendors selling at the market technically worked the collective and filled out IRS 1099 forms.
Fresno County Imposes Largest Cannabis-related Fine
The Fresno County Board of Supervisors imposed their largest medical marijuana fine yet since becoming the first county to pass a total cultivation ban in January. Fresno Supervisors levied a $99,000 fine — $1,000 for each of 99 plants. They also voted to raise the cap to defend its medical marijuana ordinance from legal challenges from 50,000 to 210,000 and hired the firm Best, Best, and Krieger.
Arizona Fires Professor Researching Cannabis, Supporters Gather Signatures to Reinstate Her
As of this Friday, an online petition asking the University of Arizona to reinstate a medical marijuana researcher has nearly 32,000 signatures. Dr. Suzanne Sisley, a Department of Psychiatry faculty member and researcher, won long-awaited federal approval by the Department of Health and Human Services this April for a medical cannabis study approved in 2011 by the FDA. The study would analyze the efficacy of different cannabis treatments for veterans with PTSD.
But two Republican state senators, one of them the president of the senate, have made attempts to block funding to the university unless the marijuana research was halted. When those efforts failed the Senate president, Senator Andy Biggs, reportedly angrily called the University of Arizona's president and demanded Dr. Sisley's phone and email account information for what he called her political activism. Sisley was suddenly terminated last week for reasons she maintains were related to her research.

Hi, Adel-
Unfortunately, it appears that our "E-ZBorrow" interlibrary loan system does not offer access to the 18th edition of this book, which is from 2010. (Only editions that are over 10 years old are available). However, since the 19th edition has been released, this has brought the cost of the 18th edition down significantly. Here is a link to the page for this edition on Amazon, which includes prices for a few different formats:
I'm sorry that we were not able to get the book for you via the library collections. It was nice to meet you today; do let us know if you have questions in the future.

Using Polymers to Develop Novel Medicines
What Are Polymers?
Polymers are large molecules made up of repeating structural units. They exist in nature – in the form of proteins and starch, for example – but can also be manufactured in a laboratory for a variety of purposes and applications such as plastics and coatings.
Polymers have a long history in healthcare. They are found in many medical devices, such as cardiovascular stents and orthopedic fixation devices used for the treatment of fractures, soft-tissue injuries or reconstructive surgery. They are also often used to improve the properties of certain medications – such as interferon alfa (Pegasys®) for chronic hepatitis, rGCSF (Neulasta®) for neutropenia, doxorubicin (Doxil®) for cancer, and therapies for rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn's disease.
Relypsa's Innovative Approach to Developing Polymeric Medicines
We have a rich legacy in polymer science and a unique approach to developing non-absorbed polymeric medicines that can treat a wide range of diseases addressable in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, including hyperkalemia.
Since we were founded, we have focused on using our proprietary polymer drug discovery and optimization technology, which involves an efficient candidate synthesis and screening process. Our high-throughput chemistry quickly generates a large set of related polymers. Perhaps some bind toxins more tightly, are more rigid than others, or swell more in water. We measure these properties and ultimately select the polymer optimal for the specific disease we are pursuing.
While polymers are commonly used to modify or deliver medicines, we use the polymer itself as the medicine. The polymers that we create with our technology are designed to selectively recognize, target and remove the molecule that is causing the disease.
Our polymer medicines are delivered orally but are not systemically absorbed. They are designed to act and stay only in the digestive tract – a localized approach to systemic problems in the body. Since many drug-related toxicities result from systemic exposure, our polymer approach avoids side effects caused via systemic absorption. The safety of gut-restricted polymers has been previously demonstrated by drugs like colesevelam (Welchol®) and sevelamer hydrochloride (Renagel). Our technology has further improved this approach, with the intent to make polymers easier to ingest and decrease the potential for GI side effects.
We are working to develop a pipeline of other polymer-based medicines for diseases or conditions that have a significant impact on people's lives and that could be addressed with a medicine that acts within the digestive tract. These could include gastrointestinal diseases, or disorders associated with mineral ion imbalance, high levels of bacterially produced toxins, diabetes, inflammation and many others.

Legal Services Islamabad For Your Intellectual Property Queries
Legal services Islamabad can cover a multitude of different areas. One of the most undervalued and yet one of the most important relates to intellectual property law and how this can affect clients. If you�re searching for advice on this matter then it�s wise to consult a specialist with extensive experience in the field.
Many law firms in Pakistan offer services pertaining to intellectual property. This can include services relating to copyright, trademarks and patents. When selecting a law firm to represent you, it�s important to remember that most law firms in Islamabad will offer these services, but only a few will be exceptionally talented in the area. Perhaps one of the most integral aspects of copyright and trademark law is the necessity to undertake legal proceedings when infringements are noticed. Whether you�re a large or small business, these infringements still adversely affect your company and it�s important to pursue them whenever they occur. Trademarks are a particularly complex aspect of law with numerous applications you may be required to complete and registrations you must undertake. A good legal representative, well versed in the complexities of intellectual property law, will be able to assist with all this. Patents are no less complicated. Again, action against infringement is intrinsic to this service but lawyers can also help you with filing patent applications and drafting petitions for extensions and the like. Whatever aspect of intellectual property you need assistance with, a good law firm will be on hand to help.
At Josh and Mak International, we understand the value of intellectual property law. We respect each and every one of our clients and offer legal services Islamabad that satisfy both our corporate clients and individuals looking to register copyrights, trademarks or patents.

Geelong Boating Festival to Open Boating Season
To celebrate the opening of boating season in Victoria and promote boating as a significant recreational lifestyle, the Boating Industry Association of Victoria (BIAV) will hold a Life's Better With A Boat – Boating Festival on 8-9 October 2016 in the heart of the Geelong foreshore at Steampacket Gardens.
President of the BIAV, Irene Hoe said the Geelong Boating Festival is aimed at bringing together the Geelong and Bellarine communities to celebrate the lifestyle boating provides.
The festivities will begin with a Gala Dinner at the Surf Coast Hotel in Torquay on Friday the 7th with the Festival at Steampacket Gardens opening on Saturday 8 October 2016.
Steven Potts, Chief Executive of the BIAV said the Life's Better With A Boat – Boating Festival will provide current owners and those considering becoming involved in boating with a showcase of the latest boats and equipment together with information on all aspects of boating.
"There will also be a strong focus on promoting the tourism attractions of Greater Geelong and The Bellarine for destination boating tourism.
"Geelong and the Bellarine Peninsula are among the top most popular areas for boating."
The Boating Festival also provides an opportunity to showcase the contribution of local boating businesses, Clubs, the Geelong Coast Guard and Marine Search and Rescue units make to the community.
Mr Potts said the Festival is also family orientated with many activities for children including learning the basics of fishing, tips on the marine environment and water safety as part of safe boating.
Facts About Boating
Currently there are 268,336 current Marine Licences, 172,805 registered boats and 996,000* boating participants in Victoria. (*Morgan Poll 2012 – Victorian and Tasmanian)
90% of Victorian recreation vessels are trailered, less than 8 metres in length with 68% of registered boats being operated on Port Phillip and Western Port Bays.
The projected increase of the population in the central coast area of Victoria, including Port Phillip and Western Port Bays, from 4.6 million to nearly 8 million by 2050, will see a doubling of boating activities which will require a boost Victoria's economic development and employment.

We are a 45 years family with several business in the upstate NY area. CLLR is a very special interest of my wife Linda, and myself.
Chuck Thomas purchased this house in 2007
It is the Premium property on Canandaigua Lake at the upper most North west location closest to all the main attractions,Canandaigua,etc.
Please read the site information for full details.
We had an absolutely wonderful time at this property. Canandaigua, in the summer, can be an "active" city. This property is literally minutes from so much but still very secluded. You get the best of both worlds- a quite retreat with great lake access and a spacious yard, as well as quick access to shops, restaurants, wineries, great golf, a water park and major grocery stores if desired. This property easily accommodated our party of 15 (4 families) and the owners could not have been more attentive. They were there at check in to give us the walk through and remained available throughout our stay. I'll mention a fluke incident that occurred with a newer washing machine on the property. But there was some issue with the digital read out on it and a tech was being sent out from Maytag later in the week (fine with us). But the owner felt that was not acceptable and personally delivered a brand new washing machine the next day for us. Completely exceeded our expectations.
The property itself is not brand new but very well kept. It is a nice mix of elegant and comfortable. Well equipped, and plenty of room to spread out. Lake access is wonderful. A dock that we used for a renal boat and the lake is fairly shallow for kids to easily venture out to swim, fish or kayak. A trip that we would love to repeat! I don't think you could possibly be disappointed at this location.
This is our favorite spot to completely relax and feel pampered! Everything was ready as promised when we arrived. The grounds were immaculate - a perfect spot to sit in the shade and enjoy family time together. The beautiful house was a delight with everything we needed waiting for us. Chuck and Linda were the best, helpful in whatever we
needed. We really regretted leaving and are already looking forward to our next visit.
After looking for several years for the ideal vacation spot for our multi-generational family of 13 , we luckily found Chuck's and Linda's property in Canandaigua. Located on the west side near the top of the lake, the home allows easy access to town & shops. Its spacious lawn, outdoor patio and lakeside location provide inviting, comfortable outdoor living. The inside is large enough for family gatherings and dining yet has enough rooms and smaller spaces for everyone to have some privacy. It's perfect for our 3 families with 6 children ranging in age from 18 months - 13 years; and we're already looking forward to next year.
This was our first vacation in the Finger Lakes and we will definitely return. The house is perfect with its picturesque location, spacious living spaces and fabulous outdoor area. With the flat back yard, dock, outdoor seating, and fire pit, we spent most of our time outside. The view and sunrises are amazing. We loved that everything we needed was nearby- food store, kayaks, wine trails, golf and so much more. Chuck, the owner, was just a phone call away and very helpful. Perfect family vacation home!
This has quickly become our favorite "go to" vacation spot! The entire family starts packing a week ahead in the excitement of enjoying a fantastic time together in this awesome home. It is so easy to plan since Linda and Chuck always take care of us and make sure they know what we have in mind. They recommend great restaurants, events, places to visit and wonderful short day trips. The house is always clean and the property is well-kept. The game room is perfect for everyone and it is also a good spot for anyone who wants to keep up an exercise routine.It is amazing how such a luxurious home can be so comfortable.
We rented this house to celebrate my husband's 50th birthday with a family reunion--we needed something big enough to accommodate our extended family. This house was perfect--plenty of sleeping space and beautiful views. Although it was winter so we didn't use the lakefront at all, the fact that we were right on the lake gave us something wonderful to wake up to each morning. The rec room was a nice addition--it gave our (young adult) kids somewhere to hang out without their parents being in their teeth. I had chosen this house not only for the number of available beds, but also because the open floor plan allowed for our whole family to be together even while a few were in the kitchen preparing meals and so forth. It was clean, the beds were very comfortable; we purchased the linen service for simplicity's sake and found the provided bedding and towels were quite nice as well. There was ample parking for the many cars we ended up with over the weekend as people came down on their own schedules.
Although it's pretty close to the village, it's not an easy walk so you do need a car to get back and forth to the town of Canandaigua. Canandaigua is, of course, in the heart of the Finger Lakes and there are plenty of opportunities for wine tours and the like. Also, if you're visiting, don't miss the New York Wine and Culinary Institute. Our entire crew went in for a wine tasting and the young woman doing the wine tastings that day was an absolute treasure--we had a ball with her. We've been to the restaurant and taken classes there before--it's a must-do if you're in town.
Chuck was very easy to work with, including after the weekend when we had to collect a couple of forgotten items. I have no hesitation in recommending this location to others!
Take a virtual tour of this luxury house: http://goo.gl/BDkqY2
Island View is a private drive directly on the lake and not on the West Lake road traffic.The property has 150 foot of Lake frontage which is ground level(no steps, stairs,circular walkways or ramps),but directly on the lake approximately 8 steps from our large courtyard patio completely surrounding the Luxury Home Lake front. We are in a preserve area which means total privacy and no noisy traffic with plenty of parking for everyone. Also,the property is directly across from the Canandaigua pier (far enough away for privacy,but a excellent view of the all that the northern end of the lake offers.Also, Squaw Island (the smallest registered Island in the USA)is very close and in complete view. The area of the lake we reside in is called 'Chosen Spot Cove'. Please call us directly on any additional questions we can answer for you.Thank you for your review and we would be glad to hear from you.Chuck and Linda Thomas 'Your Hosts @ Island View'.

Sorting through negative scans and came upon a couple of mid 1960's of jumping the Middle Yeo. Must have been taken before 1967 because the Brighton Terrace houses are still there.
Used to be a popular challenge to issue, "Can you jump the river" Those who failed to land on the top of the bank used to find midway down the bank there were stinging nettles. Often they would let go and end up falling backward into the river.

Human Trafficking: What Landlords & Property Managers MUST Know
Share on
In 2000, 62-year-old Lakireddy Balireddy (sometimes written as "Bali Reddy") was one of the wealthiest landlords in Berkeley, California. Reddy Realty, his company, owned over 1000 rental properties, on top of a thriving restaurant downtown. He was bringing in over $1 million in income each month; and his Berkeley properties alone were worth $60 million.
However, all of that fell apart in 1999. A resident in one of Lakireddy's buildings spotted a group of men hurriedly carrying a rug out of a unit and loading it into a Reddy Realty van. She noticed that a young girl had followed the men to the van and seemed unusually distraught.
To the neighbor's horror, she then noticed a leg sticking out of the rug. The situation escalated before her eyes: One of the men tried to pull the girl into the van, and she resisted with all of her might. The onlooker ran outside, stopped them, and instructed a bystander to call the police immediately.
Wrapped in the carpet was 15-year-old Lalitha Vemireddy–still alive, but just barely. Her sister, Sitha Vemireddy, wasn't as lucky; her body was found at the bottom of the stairwell of the apartment building that the men had just exited. The other survivor at the scene was 18-year-old Laxmi Patati, who lived with the two sisters.
According to the coroner, Sitha had been killed by a carbon monoxide leak caused by a blocked heating vent in the girls' residence. The accident brought an end to a decades-long scheme that may otherwise have continued unimpeded for many more years.
Investigators discovered that Lakireddy had imported the three teens from his hometown in India and had forced them into prostitution. Sitha had been "given" to Lakireddy by her family when she was just 12 years old, ostensibly under the guise of a better life in America.
When it came to Lakireddy's despicable crimes, however, this was just the tip of the iceberg.
Authorities arrested Lakireddy in January of 2000–just two days before he was scheduled to leave for India with another human trafficking victim.
Ultimately, the Department of Justice discovered that the landlord and his family had imported dozens of young women each year from "untouchable" communities in India to be trafficked in the U.S. The women were sexually abused by Lakireddy, his sons, and his brother and sister-in-law. In addition, they were forced to work on his properties and in his restaurant for little or no pay. This sexual slavery in California was a continuation of similar atrocities that had occurred on his property in Velvadam, India for years.
One of his former victims stated that she had been "given" to Lakireddy when she was nine: "The day I was given to him, my childhood ended and my misery began," she said.
Ultimately, Lakireddy served just 8 years in prison and paid $2 million in restitution to Sitha's family; as well as Laxmi Patati, the third human trafficking victim in the apartment.
Human Trafficking: What It Is & How to Spot It
In 2014, an estimated 21 million people were being held in what Human Rights First describes as "modern-day slavery." It's believed that 22% are victims of sex trafficking, and the remainder are forced into mining, agriculture, manufacturing, and other hard labor industries. 55% of victims are female, and 26% are children. Traffickers earn a profit of about $150 billion each year, $99 billion of which is a result of commercial sexual exploitation. In 2015, there were only 18,930 prosecutions and 6609 convictions for human trafficking around the world.
Landlords and property managers may be surprised by how much they can do to help vulnerable women and children and assist law enforcement. For example, one Oregon landlord's suspicions were aroused when he noticed the delivery of an unusual number of mattresses to a house that he was renting out–and later installed a stripper pole. After keeping an eye on the property for a time, he was ultimately able to evict them.
Be on the lookout for the following signs. These indications may seem odd but innocent upon first glance; but in combination, they may be a sign of human trafficking:
- A dwelling has too many people living in it.
- The property garners an unusual amount of traffic.
- The tenant installs interior locks on doors and windows–to keep people in, not to keep people out.
- A tenant or applicant does not have access to her own personal documents.
- An adult tenant does not appear to be allowed to drive herself anywhere.
- A tenant or resident always seems to need someone else to speak for her, though the two don't seem to know one another well.
- Individuals appear fearful or show signs of abuse or malnourishment.
- A group of people is picked up, taken somewhere else, then brought back at around the same time every day.
- A tenant is unusually anxious after mentioning law enforcement.
- A tenant avoids eye contact.
- A tenant or guest lacks of knowledge of her whereabouts–even about what city she's in. This is because human trafficking victims rarely leave their residences, except to be transported to a new location.
- Conversations always seem to be scripted or rehearsed.
A San Francisco Gate article on the arrest of Lakireddy (who they refer to as Reddy) is also informative:
"A women who works in an office building down the block that is also owned by Reddy said yesterday that she often saw teenage girls dressed in traditional Indian saris performing tasks such as painting and hauling trash at the properties in the neighborhood owned by Reddy.
"'It's always struck me that they were using women,' said the woman who did not want her name used. 'It doesn't surprise me in the least that Mr. Reddy has been accused of this.'
"The office worker said the girls all appeared to be in their early to mid-teens and were watched over by older men.
"'We thought they treated them like slaves,' she said. 'They always looked so sad.'"
In a more recent case, the owners and management of the Roosevelt Inn, a motel in Philadelphia, are facing personal civil liability. Investigators discovered that traffickers had used the hotel to sexually exploit a young girl for two years to over a thousand different men–starting when she was just fourteen.
The girl, now 17, is suing the hotel's owners, management company, and hotel manager Yanga Patel personally.
Patel denies knowing that anything illegal was happening: "I was always in the office[.] I didn't see anything wrong."
The victim's attorney responded, "You have to be blind[,] deaf and dumb not to know that over 100 men are showing up over a period of a couple days. You have a cleaning crew that comes into the room and [oftentimes] finds boxes or waste cans full of [used] condoms. […] This is about as open and obvious as it gets."
He continues: "You can't have a line of johns out the front door and around the room waiting without them knowing the linen service was [extraordinary.] The front desk would direct the traffic to the room of this child."
As one example of potential landlord or property manager liability, Pennsylvania passed an anti-trafficking law in 2014 that gives state officials broad latitude to seize all assets "derived from, involved in or used or intended to be used" to conduct human trafficking, as well as all assets of individuals or organizations involved in committing or planning these crimes.
Human Trafficking: Can Landlords Be Held Liable?
Some jurisdictions have passed laws that potentially hold landlords criminally and civilly liable for allowing the use of a property for prostitution or human trafficking.
Some human trafficking advocacy resources advise landlords and property managers to ask tenants about where they're from and what their relationship is to one another. This is spectacularly bad advice that can easily lead to illegal housing discrimination. You'll face an uphill battle in court, in addition to thousands of dollars in fines for each incident. If you're a licensed real estate professional, you could also jeopardize your license.
Law enforcement officials do not recommend attempting to rescue a human trafficking victim by yourself. Traffickers can be violent and dangerous, and they may well retaliate against the victim you're trying to help.
If you suspect human trafficking on your property or a property that you manage–or anywhere else, for that matter–contact the National Human Trafficking Resource Center. They'll work with law enforcement to investigate the situation and ask the questions that you can't. Additionally, law enforcement can prosecute offenders simply for lying to them–something that you can't do when you're questioning a tenant about human trafficking or other illegal activities. You can learn more about residential brothels and other sexual trafficking scenarios on the National Human Trafficking Hotline's website.
To report suspected human trafficking, call 1-888-373-7888, or text "HELP" or "INFO" to 233733.

"You need to strengthen your core and hip musculature."
We hear this all the time when it comes to the advice given to folks that suffer from back pain. In a bunch of cases, pain could be due to poor exercise technique. Better engagement of the muscles that attach at the hips and core could prevent lower back pain during loaded movements.
But what's causing our debilitating pain when we rotate, bend sideways, or move in such a way where we don't train that line of motion?
Speaking from first-hand experience and the consensus amongst clients I've worked with, it always comes down to whether or not you have control of movement at the entire spine. With most exercises for injury "prevention" of the lower back, we talk about stabilizing the spine with proper bracing. While building strength in these positions is 100% a good recommendation for anybody, these static positions we train might not necessarily ensure that we relieve pain completely.
This is exactly why I love Cat Camel.
The neuromuscular control cat camel helps you develop is unlike any other drill I've ever performed for the spine. The key to making this drill as effective as possible is concentrating on moving one vertebrae of the spine at a time. It takes time to really hone in on this and control it to the best of your ability, but the variations in the video above should be a great starting point for you.

Mother-daughter team Judy Smith and Chrystal Lancaster together have almost 60 years of restaurant experience cooking and serving hungry customers. Together, they started the Texas Great Country Café & Pie Pantry in 2009. From the start, both locals and visitors flocked to the Café, which has now grown to three dining rooms.
Judy tells it this way:
"A lot of the things you see here serve as a tribute to my parents, who taught me so many things. Not only things like cookin n cleanin…. but also real life things like respectin others, being loyal, honest n trustworthy and above all… true to your word.
My dad believed that a hand shake was more binding than any contract that was ever written. He was a tried n true rodeo ridin, oil field workin Texan. My mom was a hard workin housewife, mother of seven kids, waitress and cook. She was all those things and still found time to be my best friend!
Along with the lessons learned from my parents, I also learned many valuable lessons by growing up in rural west Texas (Seminole). Things like if it grows… it sticks and if it crawls… it bites! Another lesson was that in Texas distance is measured in hours…like its bout 5 hours from Dallas to Houston among others. Good or bad ts my heritage… my roots… I am a Native Texan."

Through this blog I hope to document the adventures of Kineo.
Kineo is a new business that four of us are starting this week! So this blog will follow our ups and downs (though we hope we won't have so many of those).
The aim is to develop a company providing a wide range of e-learning services including consultancy and e-learning products.
Today is the real start of Kineo I suppose as Stephen started fee earning work for Kineo yesterday, Mark today and I start next week. I only start two days a week as my current employer wants me to help out until November.
We have done some planning, though I suspect as always, not as much as we should have.
We have set up a limited liability partnership, we have bought some urls and we have a business plan. Oh, and we also havea first contract! Though I will feel better when we have the website up and running, business cards, phones and other basics.
we have also engaged a web designer and programmer; and after many iterations we should get a version to look at tonight. Fingers crossed!

Say Goodbye to Windows 8.0?
As of tomorrow, January 12, Windows 8.0 support comes to a close. Those who exam the Windows Product Lifecycle table might be inclined to think they have longer, based on this snapshot from that resource:
Download: Our 23-Page Editorial Collection of Windows 10 Blog Content
Inside this exclusive download offer, you'll find a compilation of all of our top followed Windows 10 blog content written by our expert editors, who combined have over 30 years of experience in the IT industry. We've compiled a variety of these expert blogs for you - offering best practices and breakdowns designed to help IT professionals tackle the top Windows 10 tips, tricks, concerns and more.
Dude! Table sez "Mainstream Support End Date is 1/9/2018?!?
There is, however, some applicable "fine print" that actually supersedes the date information shown in the table. The Windows 8.1 Support Lifecycle Policy FAQ includes this unambiguous counter-claim in its first paragraph: "With the General Availability of Windows 8.1, customers on Windows 8 have 2 years, until January 12, 2016, to move to Windows 8.1 in order to remain supported." As you can see from the "Notes" field in the Windows 8 entries above, MS is pretty clear about warning users on the need to move onto Windows 8.1 by 1/12/2016.
Yep, that's tomorrow, as Paul Thurrott stated in the recent article that reminded me of this little gotcha. What surprised me most in his story is that "over 41 million people [are] still using Windows 8.0 for some reason, as it's installed on about 2.75 percent of all PCs currently in use" (based on stats from a familiar source: NetMarketShare.com). Thus, those who haven't moved some of their users from 8.0 to 8.1 (or 10) should probably get going on that process, so as to minimize the window during which support is absent and security risks escalated thereby. Time to get a move on!

Anika Meza of New Beginnings Fair
This month, I'm off to my first event as a vendor! I'm not really into 'traditional' business networking events - and nor are my ideal clients. So when I first heard of New Beginnings Fair, I was excited!
New Beginnings Fair is all about developing relationships with people in a relaxed and collaborative environment - not the old 'how many business cards can I get rid of' type thing.
There are workshops throughout the day and guest talks from people 'doing the do' in the start up industry: think Susannah George from The Urban List, Michael Ellis from Vinomofo and Justine Flynn from one of my all-time favourite brands, Thankyou).
The Fair's co founder Anika Meza (who started it up with her husband Marcos) first contacted me early this year to ask if I'd be interested in attending with a stand. I thought - 'my business is way too tiny to be interesting to anyone else' and to be honest, I was a little scared thinking about putting myself out there so publicly.
But as time went on I thought, 'hang on - this is my ideal client group, it's my dream type of event AND I'm ready for a new challenge' - so I said a big yes!
Anika and Marcos ran their first New Beginnings Fair in Sydney this year, and they are now coming to Melbourne on August 19th. I spoke with Anika about the challenges, rewards and learnings of her incredible business.
***You can get $10 off your ticket with the code 'goodmedia' or by using this link!***
Where did the idea for NBF come from? What was the need that you saw?
My husband, Marcos and I came up with the NBF concept while we were on holidays last year. We've always wanted to work on a project together and NBF seemed like the perfect opportunity to combine our skills.
We wanted to create an event that was not only affordable for small business owners but also super interactive and inspiring.
NBF isn't an event where you sit down all day. Its the kind of event where you have access to a number of different things like workshops, speakers, food/drink pop-ups and vendors.
There's also unlimited opportunity to meet like-minded individuals throughout the day with plenty of giveaways and competitions so you definitely won't leave empty handed.
What gave you the push to actually get it started? (It's not an easy thing to pull off!)
It all happened pretty quickly to be honest - we were both so passionate about the idea and after testing it with a few people we just went with it. I guess thats one of the benefits of running your own business - you can have an idea one day and execute it the next.
What is your background? is running events a totally new area for you?
My background is in HR mainly in large corporates so events are quite a new area for me (unless you count planning my wedding).
In Sydney you had Lisa Messenger and the Frank Body girls as guest speakers and in Melbourne you have Justine Flynn (among others). How do you go about getting big name entrepreneurs on board?
It's been a mix of being introduced via mutual friends and reaching out to them directly.
We've been lucky to have some amazing entrepreneurs believe in our vision from quite early on and wanting to be part of it.
What's the most challenging thing about running NBF?
Switching off - Marcos has actually banned me from talking about NBF after 9pm (I've broken this rule a number of times).
I think it's important to have boundaries especially when working with your partner - I'm slowly learning this and definitely still a work in progress.
And what's the most rewarding?
Definitely hearing about how much the Fair has helped individuals start/grow their own business.
Since our Sydney Fair, I've had so many individuals reach out to me saying how helpful they found our Fair and how it enabled them to launch their idea or grow their existing business.
At the end of the day that's all we are trying to do - create a community where people have the tools and resources to be their own boss.
What have been some results/experiences for vendors from attending NBF that make it all worthwhile?
Our Fair gives established business the opportunity to meet hundreds of small business owners all under one roof. It's all about developing relationships with people in a relaxed and collaborative environment.
What marketing has worked really well for you?
Social media has proven to be hugely successful for us as well as word of mouth.
And what marketing have you found not to be so effective?
In terms of our Sydney event we probably saw the lowest ROI on radio ads.
What's next for NBF?
After a successful launch in Sydney earlier this year we are super excited to be bringing our Fair to Melbourne on the 19th August. The plan is to make this an annual Fair, run in several locations.
We are also working on another exciting project which will be ready to launch early next year and is also focused on the small business community so stay tuned.

ocean : a : the whole body of salt water that covers nearly three fourths of the surface of the earth b : any of the large bodies of water (as the Atlantic Ocean) into which the great ocean is divided — Webster
OneLook, Free Dictionary, Wiktionary, Urban Dictionary
Roget's II (Thesaurus.com), Merriam-Webster Thesaurus, Visuwords
Ocean is a body of saline water that composes much of a planet's hydrosphere. On Earth, an ocean is one of the major conventional divisions of the World Ocean, which covers almost 71% of its surface. These are, in descending order by area, the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Southern (Antarctic), and Arctic Oceans. The word sea is often used interchangeably with "ocean" in American English but, strictly speaking, a sea is a body of saline water (generally a division of the world ocean) partly or fully enclosed by land.
Saline water covers approximately 72% of the planet's surface (~3.6×108 km2) and is customarily divided into several principal oceans and smaller seas, with the ocean covering approximately 71% of Earth's surface and 90% of the Earth's biosphere. The ocean contains 97% of Earth's water, and oceanographers have stated that less than 5% of the World Ocean has been explored. The total volume is approximately 1.35 billion cubic kilometers (320 million cu mi) with an average depth of nearly 3,700 meters (12,100 ft).
As the world ocean is the principal component of Earth's hydrosphere, it is integral to all known life, forms part of the carbon cycle, and influences climate and weather patterns. The world ocean is the habitat of 230,000 known species, but because much of it is unexplored, the number of species that exist is much larger, possibly over two million. The origin of Earth's oceans remains unknown; oceans are thought to have formed in the Hadean period and may have been the impetus for the emergence of life. — Wikipedia

Back in 2008, Radio Times (Britain's version of TV Guide, only cooler) had a terrific cover - Daleks crossing Westminster Bridge, and proclaiming, "Vote Dalek!" Watching Donald Trump's Friday night address to his adoring fans brought this image back into my thoughts with frightening clarity.
Don't know what a Dalek is, even in 2015? Well, that's why God made Google.
There are still folks who discount Donald Trump's candidacy, and mock his rallies, but all I can suggest is that such folks get back on their medication, as quickly of possible. For quite some time now. the Republican party, talk radio and Fox News have encouraged an atmosphere in which Americans look upon folks they disagree with with disdain, as actual enemies of all that Americans should hold dear, and to ignore traditional sources of information that don't hold to the party line.
You know, like newspapers.
Whiners dismiss political critics as "haters" and get their "news" and "history" from websites which would be laughed out of existence on a rational planet.
Watching men and women on TV interviews who praised him for his blunt talk (yes, well, do do cranky old men in barber shops - and loons on Facebook) not too many (meaning none) seemed concerned about his lack of specifics on issues.
And, of course, like generations of voters, they have become used to candidates who make promises like, once in office, they will be able to bully everyone else in the world into doing doing exactly what they want. And how well has that worked out for presidents in the past, who deal with members of Congress, and even Supreme Courts who don't see the world through their eyes?
I wish some reporter on the campaign trail had the wit to ask a candidate about that during a debate.
Well, amid cries of "White Power!" and the admiration of folks who compared him favorably to the late George Wallace, Trump held his latest rally this weekend. And it should be remembered that it took Trump some time to denounce the violence committed in his name, when some of his supporters took their boyish enthusiasm to extremes and badly beat a Mexican man.
Folks who support him are passionate, Trump said at first, and they want America to be "great" again.
Not to worry, though. I doubt many of the Trump supporters actually read newspapers, so they aren't likely to read much of the criticism against him - or any of the actual facts, refuting his rhetoric.
About that Dalek cover
Not only was the "Vote Dalek" cover voted the most iconic British cover of all time, but in 2013, it was named the Professional Publishers Association Cover of the Century.

A bipartisan pair of lawmakers is calling for the Obama administration to provide more "clarity" about the strategy for implementing the nuclear deal with Iran.
Reps. Seth MoultonSeth Wilbur MoultonSenate Dems introduce bill to block release of 3D printed gun blueprints States sue Trump administration to block 3D printed guns Dem rep: I'm not going to challenge Pelosi, but we need 'new generation of leadership' MORE (D-Mass.) and Reid RibbleReid James RibbleWith Trump, conservatives hope for ally in 'War on Christmas' GOP rushes to embrace Trump House stays Republican as GOP limits losses MORE (R-Wis.) plan to introduce a resolution urging the administration to outline how the U.S. will keep Iran to the terms of the deal, including an affirmation of potentially using military force to prevent the country from obtaining a nuclear weapon.
Moulton said Iran's recent ballistic missile tests — which international officials say violated United Nations Security Council resolutions — and ties to terrorism continue to raise concerns about the country's trustworthiness.
The freshman Democrat, who voted in support of the deal last year, suggested that the White House should clarify how it would respond to behavior from Iran that it finds objectionable as it works to implement the deal.
"Frankly, if we were satisfied with the administration's response to date, we wouldn't have written the resolution," Moulton said Wednesday.
Ribble, who voted against the accord, said the measure would be a "pragmatic" recognition that the deal is going into effect and needs to be effectively implemented whether lawmakers originally supported the deal or not. He posited that fellow Republicans would find the resolution's language sufficiently "tough," even though virtually all of them opposed the Iran deal.
"We're not taking anything off the table," Ribble said of potential repercussions for Iran.
The U.S. and other countries began removing sanctions on Iran's financial and oil sectors this month after the International Atomic Energy Agency, the nuclear watchdog for the United Nations, certified that the country had sufficiently dismantled parts of its nuclear program.
Separately, the Obama administration put new sanctions into place a day later to retaliate against the ballistic missile tests.
The resolution would urge the president to work with Congress to ensure the International Atomic Energy Agency, State Department and Treasury Department have "full funding" to implement the terms of the deal and impose any new necessary sanctions.
Ribble, a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said he informed Chairman Ed Royce (R-Calif.) about the resolution during a congressional trip to Africa last week. Royce said he would review the measure before potentially moving it through the committee process, according to Ribble.
The House is slated to conduct a do-over vote on legislation when it returns from recess next week that would prevent the Obama administration from lifting sanctions on Iranian entities unless it certifies they aren't affiliated with terrorism or ballistic missile development.
Lawmakers were originally slated to pass that bill before Iran was expected to receive sanctions relief, but more than 100 lawmakers missed the vote earlier this month after Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) closed the vote on time to punish tardiness.

CNET First Look
Singtrix turns you into a karaoke superstarCreated by the minds behind Guitar Hero, Singtrix offers a microphone and audio kit that transforms your voice to match songs like you've always dreamed.
Hi, there. I'm Scott Stein with CNET. And we're taking a look at Singtrix, which can turn your voice into the smooth tones of Barry White or Tinkerbell, or you can harmonize in different directions you could inch to, and you can sound fantastic and definitely not like your regular self. Singtrix costs $299, but you're getting two microphones with that, a microphone stand, a speaker, and you get this little magic box that comes with about 300 or more presets. And there's an app that has 3,500 songs that are supported in it, so you can change your voice or play around with different presets to your heart's content. And you can plug in any other music player and have it work with Singtrix to sound like a superstar with whatever song you choose. And there's also a Hit button on the microphone that you can use to trigger effects while you're singing for an extra bit of oomph. This box has a number of other presets, as well, and an effects tuner. Singtrix is created by some of the original creators of Guitar Hero, so there's a little bit of that game vibe going on, too, with this type of karaoke experience that we're seeing here. It's available now, and it's gonna start shipping soon. So, it's $299. If you wanna create your little karaoke superstar setup, Singtrix looks like a pretty good solution for it. I'm Scott Stein with CNET. -Open your eyes. Look up to the skies and see. This is the rest of the song that I don't know very well.
