About Fatima Al Qadiri
Born in Senegal, raised in Kuwait, and based in New York, Fatima Al Qadiri was one of the most creative and conceptual electronic music producers to surface during the 2010s. She debuted in 2011 with a pair of EPs: Warn-U (as Ayshay, released on Tri Angle) and Genre-Specific Xperience (UNO). Early on, she displayed a remarkable ability to draw from and switch between several dance-music modes. In particular, the latter release ranged from juke to trance. A subsequent digital download-only EP offered remixes from the likes of DJ Rashad, Nguzunguzu, Ikonika, and Girl Unit. Night Slugs subsidiary Fade to Mind issued her next set, Desert Strike, a baleful 2012 EP inspired by Desert Strike: Return to the Gulf -- a video game she and her sister played in Kuwait, shortly after the Gulf War. Al Qadiri then connected with Kode9's Hyperdub label, where she released the album Asiatisch in 2014. The set fell into place as an audio travelog for a trip through "an imagined China." As Future Brown, Al Qadiri and fellow producers Nguzunguzu and J-Cush combined to make a self-titled album released on Warp in 2015. The following year, Al Qadiri released her second Hyperdub album, Brute, inspired by viewing coverage of 2014-2015 anti-police brutality protests that took place in the U.S. In 2017, she released Shaneera, an EP of five club tracks exploring Arab queer culture. ~ Andy Kellman

Young Americans provide example of their potential
AMSTERDAM – A dramatic come from behind win for the United States in their friendly international against the Netherlands would serve as a lesson of the team's potential to its many young members, coach Jurgen Klinsmann said.
"We need to learn to turn games around, to take games like knockout games. We have to have that mindset that we can turn things around," said Klinsmann after the Americans came from 3-1 down to win 4-3 in Amsterdam on Friday in an impressive display of swift counter-attack football.
"For all these youngsters, this is what they need to smell. This is what they need to see. They need to go to that tempo." The U.S. now move onto another prestige friendly, against Germany in Cologne on Wednesday, as they prepare for the Concacaf Gold Cup, which they host next month.
"It's a huge learning curve when you play teams like Holland, you can only benefit from that. It doesn't matter what the result is," he told reporters as the Americans beat the Dutch for the first time after losing all four previous internationals between the two countries.
His team fought back to win an exciting friendly thanks to goals by substitutes Danny Williams and Bobby Wood in the final two minutes at the Amsterdam Arena.
"Obviously it's a good feeling now that we are growing. We all know that the Gold Cup is a completely different ballgame for us," the former Germany striker said.
"When you come to Europe it's a far more open game because they go at you. The first four to five games in the Gold Cup, they will play very defensively, and we will need to find other ways to score goals." –Reuters

I'm slowly giving up on this installation, so I thought maybe it's time I ask for your help.
Everything works fine but the counting. I'm using Mark's v2 and the problem is:
1) iptables doesn't count PC traffic
I was so desperate that I added both eth0 and eth1, but still nothing. It's the same with traffic_out. What should I check here?Code:Chain traffic_in (1 references) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination 0 0 all -- eth0 any anywhere 192.168.0.10 0 0 all -- eth1 any anywhere 192.168.0.10
2) Router traffic is counted, but isn't transfered to the log files:
iptables givesand accounting script searches forCode:Chain router_in (1 references) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination 1109 146435 all -- any any anywhere anywhere
$WAN which is not given in the iptables result. I know how to deal with thi problem but i'm confused why does it happen. I guess there must be a problem with iptables entries but I didn't modify anything. Could someone please help!Code:bytesin=`iptables -L router_in -vx | awk '$8 ~ /'"$WAN"'$/ {print $2 }'`

This Bea is Bell, wondering if the name Xavier Alvarez is familiar? If not let me enlighten you. He is a defendant in a case before the Supreme Court (US vs. Alvarez). Mr. Alvarez was an elected official of the Three Valleys Municipal Water District in Pomona, California. While attending one of their meetings he informed its members that he was a wounded veteran and that he had received The Congressional Medal of Honor. Some other medal recipients checked the Internet and found out that what Mr. Alvarez had claimed turned out to be a big lie. He had never even served in the armed forces.
As a result of that falsehood he was convicted of violating the 2006 Stolen Valor Act which prohibits lying about military honors and records. His lawyer appealed the conviction on the grounds of the First Amendment, which protects freedom of speech. As a result the California District Court of Appeals struck down the verdict and it eventually reached the United States Supreme Court.
Now here's the question. Do people have a Constitutional First Amendment right to lie? Lord, I should hope not! I can just see my granddaughter declaring her right of free speech whenever she got caught in a lie. Not that it would save her from any punishment, but I'm sure that she would think that it was well worth the effort.
From what I understand about this whole thing is that the problem the Supreme Court faces in making its decision is this: is a narrow law designed to prosecute specific lies constitutional? If that's the case, I think that "lying laws" should be directed at some of the biggest liars of all—Congress—no, make that politicians in general.
Imagine if the average citizen could "refresh" the memories of Presidents, Senators, Representatives, governors—all politicians—with evidence of their lies and have them convicted for those lies. I admit that everyone lies sometimes, but lies designed to deliberately conceal wrongful acts, immoral behavior and threats to national security all would be violations of the public trust and would therefore deserve convictions.
It seems that not all of the Supreme Court justices agree with the present Stolen Valor Act. Justice Sotomayor stated that just offending others by itself is not enough to justify limiting speech.
"So outside of the emotional reaction where's the harm?" she asked.
She seemed the least willing to accept the Obama administration's defense of the law. The argument is that the value of the highest award or any others is diminished because some people lie about having received them. I have to admit that choosing some lies over others sounds like a slippery slope to me.
So I guess I have to ask, do we make a federal case out of lying? Why make some lies against the law and not others? I don't envy the Supreme Court in deciding this case. I bet all of those lying politicians are glad that there haven't been any "no-lying laws" directed at them.Too bad, I enjoy musing on that possibility, and that's no lie.

WWE issued the following press release today:
"Wrestlemania 30: The World Television Premiere" Sunday August 3 at 7pm ET on NBC
NBC and WWE are bringing WrestleMania® to network television Sunday, Aug. 3 (7-8 p.m. ET) with "WrestleMania 30: The World Television Premiere." For the sixth year in a row, this special will allow fans to relive moments celebrating 30 years of the world's most popular sports entertainment extravaganza. The one-hour broadcast will feature the return of pop culture icons and WWE legends Hulk Hogan, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin and The Rock, as well as highly-anticipated matches, including John Cena vs. Bray Wyatt™, and Undertaker® defending his epic WrestleMania undefeated streak against former UFC Heavyweight Champion, Brock Lesnar™.
On April 6, WWE's annual pop-culture extravaganza sold-out the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans with more than 75,000 fans from all 50 states and 37 countries in attendance. WrestleMania 30, grossing $10.9 million, broke the record for the Mercedes-Benz Superdome's highest grossing entertainment event, which was broadcast worldwide in more than 100 countries and 20 languages and reached a record 1 million households in the U.S. on WWE Network and pay-per-view combined. Next year's WrestleMania 31 takes place on Sunday, March 29, 2015 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
Hulk Hogan Bio
Is there a name more synonymous with sports-entertainment than Hulk Hogan? The key figure in WWE's rise from regional attraction to worldwide entertainment leader in the 1980s, The Hulkster's superhuman size and undeniable charisma set the standard for what a Superstar should be. A larger-than-life icon, he packed 93,173 WWE fans into the Pontiac Silverdome, won six WWE Championships, starred in movies, television shows and his own animated series and became an idol to a vast legion of fans he dubbed his Hulkamaniacs.
Clad from head to toe in his trademark yellow and red, "The Real American" first established his unbridled patriotism when he legdropped his way through The Iron Sheik to win the WWE Championship in 1984. He became a household name from there, headlining the inaugural WrestleMania while brushing his 24-inch pythons against celebrities like Cyndi Lauper and Billy Crystal on MTV and "Saturday Night Live." The Hulkster's fanbase knew no bounds as Andy Warhol showed up at his matches and millions of children listened intently as their hero urged them to "say their prayers and eat their vitamins."
Hogan's massive presence had a way of making things feel significant. His greatest rivals — "Rowdy" Roddy Piper, King Kong Bundy, Ultimate Warrior — became more noteworthy parts of WWE history when they stepped through the ropes to face The Immortal One. His best matches read like a shortlist of WWE's defining moments. Who could forget Hulk's showdown with Andre the Giant at WrestleMania III, his collision with Randy Savage at WrestleMania V, his iconic encounter with The Rock at WrestleMania X8?
And The Hulkster was nothing if not smart. Leaving WWE for WCW in the mid-90s, he turned villain when he sensed audiences growing tired of his heroism. As the ringleader of the New World Order, he redefined himself as a cowardly bad guy and took WCW to the top of the sports-entertainment heap.
The nWo experiment may have sold some T-shirts, but fans eventually grew nostalgic for the Hulk Hogan they grew up with. That Superstar returned to WWE in 2002 in all of his red and yellow glory to ask a new generation of opponents that eternal question: "Whatcha gonna do when Hulkamania runs wild on you?" This thrilling rumble down memory lane brought Hogan his final WWE Title, entry into the WWE Hall of Fame and proof that there wouldn't be WWE without Hulk Hogan.
To much fanfare, The Hulkster returned to WWE again on the Feb. 24, 2014, edition of Raw — the same day as the historic launch of WWE Network. Since then, Hogan not only hosted WrestleMania 30 in New Orleans, but performed his duties in epic fashion when he kicked off The Showcase of Immortals with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin and The Rock in an unforgettable WrestleMania moment.
Now that he's back home, what does Hulkamania have in store for the WWE Universe next?

Primary Academy
Changing Lives, Building Futures
Within our Academy we have an Assessment and Resourced Provision (ARP) which we host on behalf of Hampshire County Council. This provision is for 10 children from Years R to 2 and they are assisted by three members of staff. Their class is known in the Academy as Alborough and the class teacher is Mrs Ayers. You can see more information about the Alborough Class and their current learning on the Class Page.
Whilst in the Assessment and Resourced provision, the children's needs will be assessed and individual educational programmes and provision will be provided for each child. Other agencies such as Health, Educational Psychology, Speech and Language Therapy, Occupational Therapy may be consulted and contribute to the children's programmes or provision.
An aim of the Assessment and Resourced Provision will be to integrate children in the mainstream classes within the Academy wherever possible.

Since installing (then uninstalling) Vista several times since it was released (I'm back on XP right now, again) I have become horribly and justifiably cynical about any new Microsoft Operating System, in short, I hate Vista. So, I've been avoiding Windows 7 hype with the attitude that I'll just stick with XP forever, it does everything I need it to do without fuss and without having to wrestle for control over my own PC (which Vista loves to do).
Anyway, with the public beta of Windows 7 just around the corner I did some reading up of the new features and it looks like MS may have learned from their mistakes, but then again, all the stuff I've read also smells a little like pre-Vista hype so I'm not holding my breath.
My number one requirement is that it lets me log in as the actual Administrator account without jumping through hoops. I know this is a big security hole but I don't give a shit on my home network, I just want all my PC's to talk to each other without having to fuck around with user accounts and permissions. I'll be installing the beta to see if this is the case, if it's not, back to XP until Windows 8.
Anyway, the real purpose of this post was to test the new Windows Live Writer Twitter plug in.

Between the several jobs she worked and the scramble to feed her sons, often with food stamps, Sonya Carson used to recite a poem to keep her son Ben and his brother focused on lifting themselves out of their impoverished neighborhood in Detroit.
"If things go bad for you and make you a bit ashamed, often you will find out that you have yourself to blame," Mayme White Miller's poem begins. "You're the captain of your ship, so agree with the same, if you travel downward you have yourself to blame."
Those words, drummed into Ben Carson's memory, appear to have framed the retired neurosurgeon's views on urban renewal, mandated racial integration and the proper role of government in addressing the nation's social woes. Now Mr. Carson, tapped by President-elect Donald J. Trump to become the next secretary of housing and urban development, will most likely have the power and opportunity to apply his mother's conservative message to people's lives as he heads an agency with a $47 billion budget and a charge to assist millions of low-income renters, fight urban blight and help struggling homeowners stave off foreclosures.
Mr. Carson has no experience running a large federal bureaucracy, and aside from a failed run for the presidency, has no background in government. But if confirmed by the Senate, he would enter public service with a background like few other cabinet officials in history, shaped profoundly by a childhood when public assistance meant survival and public housing was all around him.
Rather than embrace the programs that once sustained his family and the families around him, he has resolutely rejected them, adopting standard Republican beliefs that welfare fosters dependency.
Donald Trump's Cabinet Is Complete. Here's the Full List.
A list of appointees and nominees for top posts in the new administration.
"The government should build and maintain infrastructure that supports population growth, business and self-improvement endeavors," he wrote in his book, "A More Perfect Union." "It should not, however, meddle in the affairs of all the citizens or control every aspect of their lives, as is done in many communist and socialist countries."
Mr. Carson's conservative views on government policy — coupled with the credibility his own remarkable story brings — worry experts who believe government should be doing more, not less, for the nation's cities, where glittering downtowns and increasingly affluent neighborhoods are often surrounded by areas of poverty and violence, with predominantly minority residents.
"The concern about government interference in the administration of housing programs in our cities, to me, seems unfounded," said Stefanie A. DeLuca, a professor of sociology at Johns Hopkins University who specializes in housing policy. "This danger of social engineering our cities and suburbs is overblown in comparison with the gains that we could be making in fair housing."
But Mr. Carson's views, born of his own bootstraps background, would be difficult to shake.
"Everybody had working parents, and it prepared you for the fact you were going to have to work for a living," said Steve Choice, 61, who grew up next door to Mr. Carson. "That was the American way. That was how you made your living, how you purchased things, and how the world moved. You had to work."
Dorian Reeves, 65, a former classmate of Mr. Carson's from Detroit, remembered his mother regularly summoning her son from playing basketball to study. "He didn't go to the parties," Mr. Reeves said. "He didn't hang out at the football games. He would have to go home and he would have to study. He would always be reading. That's what his mother wanted."
Mr. Carson was awarded a scholarship to Yale University, and at 33, was named director of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital. He became an author and a philanthropist supporting scholarships for young, often impoverished students.
Armstrong Williams, a conservative media personality and close friend of Mr. Carson's, said that if confirmed, Mr. Carson would look closely at President Obama's housing policies to decide which programs were encouraging federal dependency.
"He just doesn't want to walk in and say all the federal programs that take care of housing should be cut," Mr. Williams said. "He wants to make it work for the people."
Even while working as a surgeon with a heavy patient load, Mr. Carson spent much of his time traveling around the country trying to help inner-city children through the Carson Scholars Fund, a foundation he started, said Henry Brem, the chief of neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital who worked with Mr. Carson for 30 years.
But for Mr. Carson, a devotion to bettering urban youth does not equate to promoting racial integration, at least not through government. In his memoir "Gifted Hands," the word integration appears only once, when he said patients could not believe he had earned his position as the chief of pediatric neurosurgery.
"At first they eyed me suspiciously, wondering if somebody had given me my position as a token expression of integration," he wrote.
Such moments helped turn Mr. Carson against racial integration through policy. In an opinion article last year for The Washington Times, Mr. Carson compared an Obama administration housing regulation to "the failure of school busing." The rule, known as Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing, was years in the making and was intended to end decades-old segregation by offering affluent areas incentives to build affordable housing.
"These government-engineered attempts to legislate racial equality create consequences that often make matters worse," he wrote. "There are reasonable ways to use housing policy to enhance the opportunities available to lower-income citizens, but based on the history of failed socialist experiments in this country, entrusting the government to get it right can prove downright dangerous."
The Rev. Derek McCoy, vice president of CURE, a nonprofit focused on culture, race and poverty on whose board Mr. Carson has served, said that thinking would remain at the core of Mr. Carson's approach.
"If it doesn't have an exit date to it, then he probably won't put an entry on it," he said. "The things that have entry points and no exit points, I think he is going to have a real challenge with those."
In interviews and writings, Mr. Carson has embraced standard conservative views that too much government help — both in desegregating neighborhoods and in lifting people from poverty — can discourage people from working hard. Coming from someone with his background, however, those views have far more power than when they are stated by someone like House Speaker Paul D. Ryan, who also speaks of the social safety net becoming a hammock.
Ideology aside, the most pushback Mr. Carson has faced has come from his lack of expertise in housing policy. That is a concern even some of his oldest friends share.
"To me, it seems like they put him in the wrong job," said Mr. Reeves, the former classmate of Mr. Carson's from Detroit. "He's very smart man, but he's a brain surgeon. Why didn't they let him deal with medicine and be like surgeon general? That's the job I thought he would get. But that's politics."

What it's good for
As the most abundant mineral in the human body, calcium promotes bone, teeth and gum health, while encouraging muscle growth, lowers high blood pressure and plays a crucial role in blood clotting.
Where to find it
Dairy products, spinach, kale, white cabbage, tofu, soy milk, fortified grains and fruit juice.
How to take it
1,000 mg daily.
People with kidney problems should avoid taking supplemental calcium as it can impair kidney function. If you are on calcium channel blockers, calcium can interfere with its efficacy. Be aware that if you consume antacids, it can neutralize the stomach acids needed to absorb calcium.

Ever wonder what it's like to have someone jump over you and throw down a dunk? Well, wonder no more. Former UConn star Andre Drummond is currently working out in preparation for the 2012 NBA Draft. And, as part of one of his workouts, he strapped a camera to a short guy's head and then jumped over him to dunk.
Hey, it's not the best view in the world. But, it sure beats actually getting jumped over and dunked on, right?

The short answer… walking. During the festival, the population of Cannes increases nearly four-fold, particularly over the first weekend. This means that close to the Palais, the crowds can be particularly dense as they vie for the best celeb-spotting location or general amble along the Croisette.
To accommodate the crowds, the local police enforce road closures and traffic control in many of the streets in Cannes, particularly near the Palais and along the Croisette. This makes driving a total nightmare. There is also a high-demand for the city's central carparks throughout the festival so if you're planning to drive into town, it's important to get in early to ensure you can get a place. However, driving in the 'Centre-Ville' area of Cannes is not recommended at all.
Staying out of town, the local bus service is pretty extensive. In recent years a night bus service has been added during the festival, resolving one of the main gripes from festivalgoers - namely that the bus service finished too early in the evening to make it really useful. The train service is also a good way to get in and out of town if you're staying on the line.
There are several companies in Cannes which offer scooter and bicycle hire which can be an option if you feel you need mechanised transport in Cannes. However, the prices for these during the festival are probably a little more than you'd ideally hope to pay.
Taxis can be picked up from official ranks around the city, and Uber is active in Cannes too.

Haiti Mission Trip
Years after a devastating earthquake hit Haiti, Matthew 25: Ministries is still responding to the many basic needs of the Haitian people. In February 2017, Matthew 25 returned to Haiti on a medical mission trip, bringing optometrists with them for the first time. The team set up clinics in several communities, treating more than 500 medical patients and performing over 400 eye exams during the week-long trip. With the aid of a new transportable exam station and telemedicine mobile unit our team was able to perform more complex and delicate examinations than previously possible, including verifying pregnancy and detailed ear examination.
One of the clinics the team hosted was at a large urban orphanage where they provided vaccinations for 225 children and adults, distributed new clothing to the boys and girls, and engaged in fun activities with the children. In addition to the medical clinics, Matthew 25 always includes a feeding program for patients served in the communities and at the orphanage. Everyone enjoyed the freshly-prepared meals made by our team members. More than 650 meals were served on this trip. The mission team also visited a factory that employs over 2,500 Haitians, providing care to workers that will enable them to work more comfortably and be better providers for their families.
Matthew 25 has been serving in Haiti since 1997, and since 2010 we have shipped over 550 containers of badly needed aid. Additionally, M25M has continued to sponsor programs that help with long term recovery, including a community development project assisting with the relocation of disaster victims, the rehabilitation and upgrade of the orphanage, the construction of a school serving 275 children and the development of micro-enterprise and educational enrichment programs that help prepare young people to successfully enter the workplace.Return to Work

Dr. Richard Martin is a board certified orthopedic surgeon who specializes in arthroscopic surgery and sports medicine. After breaking his back at a young age and falling under the care of a local orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Martin developed an interest in sports medicine and post injury rehabilitation. As such, he eventually pursued a career in orthopedic surgery. After earning his medical degree at the University of Illinois, he went on to complete his orthopedic surgical residency at the prestigious Henry Ford Hospital.
Dr. Martin has had the honor of working with many respected physicians throughout his career. He completed his fellowship training under Dr. J.R. Steadman of the world-renowned Steadman Clinic in Vail, Colorado. During his time at the clinic, Dr. Martin honed his skills in arthroscopic and reconstructive surgery and developed a strong, patient-centric treatment approach. From premier, multi-million dollar athletes to normal, hardworking citizens, Dr. Steadman cared for each patient based on their needs, not their means. This is a principle Dr. Martin applies to his own practice today.
Dr. Martin has served as a team physician for multiple local high schools and professional sports teams, including the Paradise Valley School District, Arizona Diamondbacks, Detroit Lions, Detroit Tigers, and Detroit Redwings. He is dedicated to the advancement of orthopedic surgery and sports medicine and is published in several medical journals for topics pertaining to his specialty.
Currently, Dr. Martin is researching the evaluation, treatment, and prevention of golf injuries. Part of his research includes looking at the physiological demands of an efficient golf swing and golf injuries as they relate to muscular imbalance and poor technique.
Dr. Martin has been a recurrent recipient of the prestigious "Top Doc" title in the Phoenix Magazine publication of the same name. He feels very fortunate to have been involved with Arizona Bone and Joint Specialists since its early beginnings, and he is dedicated to serving the population of Arizona with the best orthopedic care available.
Dr. Martin and his wife are the proud parents of 18-year-old triplets and a 16-year-old singleton. He and his family are involved in various charities throughout the Valley, such as Board of Visitors, National Charity League, and Mother's Grace. In his spare time, Dr. Martin likes to golf, mountain bike, ski, and hike.

You may have read Jon Bonne's recent article in the San Francisco Chronicle entitled "Is Zinfandel a serious wine?" If you did (or even if you didn't!), you may have noticed that this article sparked a rather fierce debate in the aftermath of its publication; it seems the topic touched quite a collective nerve! If you didn't see the original article, you can click here to read it.
I watched most of the arguments from the sidelines, content to enjoy all the kind words about Ridge Zinfandel that cropped up in the various conversations. And thanks to all for that!
But I did wade into one thread, and with great pleasure, as it meant I was among the comments following an article by Steve Heimoff. If you've read anything by Steve, particularly on his blog, you'll know he has a fantastic knack for not only provoking great responses, but attracting an astonishing caliber of respondents. No disrespect intended to Steve, but there are times when reading the comment feed is almost more instructive than reading the original article!
Anyhow, Steve took on the topic of Zinfandel's seriousness, and I eventually threw my rhetorical hat into the ring. I reprint my initial response below, but I encourage you to visit Steve's site and read both his posting, and the 40+ comments that followed. You can find it all here:
As to my original comment, here 'tis:
I wonder if I might address the question of serious vs. fun (for lack of a better way to frame the debate as it seems to be shaping up) by positing that one can be quite serious about one's fun. I find that both Ridge, and Zinfandel, have fascinating histories specifically because of the way they have historically lived at some unique juncture point of high and low brow tendencies; when they succeed, they perform a marvelous integration of funk and sophistication, head and heart, technique and instinct.
Many if not all of our greatest artists throughout history were deadly serious about producing that which would ideally be entertaining to us; comedians who rehearsed jokes for 10 hours a day, composers who brought themselves to the brink of exhaustion at the piano, painters who drove themselves to the edge of madness at the canvas, writers who labored over every punctuation mark in every poem. As recipients of their artistry and dedication, we revel in the sensual enjoyment of their creations, be they light or heavy, fun or serious, playful or ponderous.
The point being, one can be serious about making a zinfandel that is flat out fun to drink. I am a proud employee of Ridge Vineyards because I think that's exactly what Ridge does, and it's something I wanted to be a part of. And we are certainly not alone in doing this. All the accolades, devotions, and praises evident in this comment feed alone attest to it. Cheers to zinfandel, and cheers, as always, to Steve for producing such effectively provocative writing. It's serious work he does, but it's alot of fun to read!

We're a hawk on the issues.
Veterans Day: Nearly 1 Million Vets Live in Poverty
While the country closed up shop and threw parades and warm memorials for America's veterans on Monday, researchers found the nearly one million veterans between the ages of 18 and 64 will be spending their Veterans Day in poverty. An estimated 968,000 vets have been in poverty over the past year.
In a Veterans Day interview with WCBS in New York, Margarette Purvis, the president of the Food Bank for New York City, told listeners that 40 percent of veterans in New York City had to rely on soup kitchens – an official estimate of 95,000 people.
New York is merely a microcosm of the dire situation for veterans around the country. A hugely disproportionate amount of veterans are homeless. There are nearly 70,000 homeless veterans in the US and one in seven homeless adults is a veteran. Another 1.5 million veterans are considered "at risk" for homelessness. More than 33,000 veterans live in government housing.
It's no surprise considering how difficult it has been for recent veterans to find a job upon their return. Veterans who have served since 2001 have an unemployment rate of more than 10 percent while veterans 18 to 24 have an unemployment rate of 30.2 percent.
Veterans also can't get access to the help many of them need after returning from the war zone, further complicating their return to normalcy. At least 20 percent of returning veterans have PTSD or depression and 50 percent of those with PTSD did not seek treatment. Not only do these problems prevent veterans from gaining employment, they lead to staggering suicide rates. In 2012, more veterans committed suicide than soldiers died in Iraq and Afghanistan. Veterans now account for one if five suicides in America and veterans commit suicide at a rate of one each day.
It's clearly a different world than the one that Vietnam and Gulf War veterans returned to. Young veterans who enlisted post-9/11 have among the highest unemployment rates of any national demographic. In a country that doesn't believe in leaving a single soldier behind on the battlefield, the Veterans Affairs administration is quick to leave hundreds of thousands behind upon their return.

text: Share: Comments Print November 17, 2011 at 9:00 AM Gonzaga coach goes for 300; Washington State hits road Posted by Jayda Evans I'm off Thursday, but didn't want to miss letting you know about a few key games happening this weekend. To set the mood, I've got Michael Jackson's "I Wanna Be Where You Are." It's off his first solo album in 1972 and shamefully I just discovered it Monday. Not that I was alive in '72, still, running around telling people it's my new favorite song draws a gigantic laugh. No worries. I was determined to share it and this is the perfect slot as Gonzaga coach Kelly Graves goes for career win No. 300 on Thursday and Washington State hits the road, the last stop being the Caribbean for the Paradise Jam. Both are places I'll bet people wanna be (RIP Michael Jackson). Graves rebuffed an offer from Washington last spring to remain at GU, already turning the school into the modern-day power of the state. He doesn't shy from competition and it's admirable he's reached the plateau given where the program was when he took over 12 years ago. The Bulldogs (1-1) play at Idaho on Thursday. (Note: Washington plays at Idaho Nov. 30 while Seattle University travels there on Jan. 5) Gonzaga signed Graves to a long-term deal after his visit at UW and it'll be interesting to see how the Zags continue to grow. Especially since another big-time coach from the so-called mid-major ranks in Kevin McGuff is now at Washington after being the winningest coach at Xavier. And former UW coach June Daugherty is taking a page out of Graves' book. Check that, she's been coaching longer, so possibly her own book, taking her Cougars (1-1) on many road trips to have them face stiff competition. Last week it was No. 12 Penn State. Now WSU is on an 11-day stint, where it'll play at Wisconsin and South Dakota State before heading St. John's, Virgin Islands for the Paradise Jam. Senior G April Cook said she doesn't surf, but will make time to get in the water. "This group enjoys getting out on the road and seeing all of these different and great places," Daugherty said of her senior-laden team. "You've gotta take a parka and who knows what. We're able to wear a lot of polo shirts down in the Virgin Islands — at least my staff will be happy, they don't have to pack five suits. We'll manage somehow." Comments

Planned housing development to cater to homeless
IOWA CITY (AP) — More than $3 million has been awarded to build a first-of-its-kind housing development for the chronically homeless in Iowa City.
The Iowa Finance Authority Board of Directors recently awarded $2.7 million to Shelter House for the development. Shelter House director Crissy Canganelli says that's on top of a $463,000 grant from the Housing Trust Fund of Johnson County. Together, the funds will cover construction and furnishing of the two-story project.
The plan includes 24 one-bedroom apartments that will cater to the chronically homeless and frequent service users. The building would also include offices and an exam room for case managers and health and behavioral health providers.
Canganelli said the project is intended to serve those caught in a cycle of arrests, emergency room visits, treatment centers and other service agency use.

You usually don't put sustainable seafood and fast food in the same sentence however you'll be surprised by what's happening at Rubio's lately.
My fondest memories of dining at Rubio's date back to 2007. I had just moved to Orange County and of course, I had no food at the new place. I was shopping for some supplies and spotted a Rubio's. I had never been to one so I decided to give it a try. Imagine my surprise when I realized they had vanilla Coke as one of their soft drinks and a menu I'd come to love until this very day.
While out and about on our weekend adventures, I was feeling a bit nostalgic so we wandered into Rubio's to see what was new. Much to our delight, if you check-in on Foursquare or Yelp, you are immediately offered a FREE order of their new Fire Roasted Corn Guacamole and Chips. I love guacamole and this was a perfect addition to our meal. I just wish there has been more guacamole on our chips because I'm an absolute fiend when it comes to avocados and corn. For me, it was the perfect pairing.
Rubio's is currently featuring their Coastal Trio which is a showcase of their sustainable seafood. The three sustainable tacos are: The Original Fish Taco (a signature recipe that started it all in 1983), Salsa Verde Shrimp Taco (Shrimp, pan-seared and topped with salsa verde), and the Regal Springs Tilapia Taco (Grilled or Blackened Regal Springs Tilapia topped with creamy chipotle sauce and Serrano slaw). They each have some amazing flavor components but my favorite was the Salsa Verde Shrimp Taco. The flavor combinations are unbelievable and just the right amount of heat for my palate. Rubio's has a great selection of sauces to accompany any dish they serve however I felt the sauces would take away from the tacos and saved those for my remaining chips.
The boy decided to go traditional and ordered the Beer Battered Fish Burrito. And guess what? It's also sustainable like the rest of the menu. This burrito is a mix of sustainable wild Alaska Pollock, caught in Alaska's icy ocean waters, hand-dipped in signature seasoned beer batter and cooked to crispy perfection. It is wrapped in a toasted flour or whole grain tortilla with handmade guacamole, black beans, Rubio's white sauce, mild salsa, sour cream, shredded cabbage and a cilantro/onion mix. I only got a few bites of this lovely burrito before he demolished it all.
If you're looking to dine frugal, healthy, and environmentally conscious, check out what Rubio's is offering and check out a location near you. I know I'll be back.

Tom Daniel
Professor of Biology
Joan & Richard Komen Endowed Chair
University of Washington
The 2017 Dale Webster Lecture is at 4:00 pm on Wednesday, April 26 in The McCormick Tribune Conference Center Auditorium on the Illinois Tech Mies (Main) Campus. This annual event features Tom Daniel of the University of Washington (UW) and honors our friend Dale Webster, professor emeritus of biology at Illinois Tech.
Daniel is the Joan and Richard Komen Endowed Chair of Biology at UW, a Guggenheim Fellow, and a MacArthur Fellow (the "genius grant" award). He also is director of the Air Force Center of Excellence on Nature Inspired Flight Technologies and Ideas, co-director of the UW Institute on Neuroengineering, a co-principal investigator for the UW Institute of Data Science and for the UW Moore-Sloan Data Science program, and an award-winning teacher. He received his Ph.D. in biology from Duke and did postdoctoral work at Caltech.
Daniel was trained in both biology and engineering and has worked at the intersection of these fields for more than 35 years. His research and teaching meld neuroscience, engineering, computing, and biomechanics to understand the control and dynamics of movement in biology. At UW, he holds adjunct appointments in the departments of computer science and engineering, mechanical engineering and bioengineering, and he is a member of the neuroscience faculty.
Daniel will speak on "Conflict Resolution: How Multiple Sensor Modalities Combine in Animal Flight Control." In this talk, Daniel will discuss how all flying creatures acquire and process information from a large number of sensory inputs including vision and touch that encode positions, motions, and forces. Maintaining control in animal flight with flapping propulsion is inherently difficult, demanding exquisite sensory processing. Daniel will review novel sensory information pathways to flight control, how different types of senses individually contribute to movement control, and how we may develop a mechanistic approach to understanding the contributions of these separate different types of senses. Daniel will focus on a natural behavior in hawkmoths, a model system for studies of sensory processing.
The lecture will be followed by a reception.
Wednesday, April 26
Time & Location
Lecture - MTCC Auditorium, 4:00 pm
Reception- MTCC Ballroom, 5:00-6:30 pm

Now You Can Kayak The Grand Canyon — Without Ever Touching Water
Getting a permit to raft the Grand Canyon is a notoriously difficult affair involving weighted lotteries, years of waiting and meticulously scheduled trips.
Now, thanks to Google Maps, armchair adventurers can go anytime they want.
The company announced Thursday that the folks in its mapping division have added to Google Street View a 286-mile stretch of the Colorado River, granting digital access to some of the Grand Canyon's premier sites, most of which can be reached only by boat. The project is the result of a collaboration between conservation group American Rivers and Google.
Some of the highlights include a look at Deer Creek Falls, a hike up North Canyon, a visit to Redwall Cavern and a view of the sweeping vista captured at the Nankoweap Granaries. For adrenaline seekers, the rapids are all there, too, including Lava Falls and Upset Rapids.
(Story continues below.)
In 2013, American Rivers labeled the Colorado "America's Most Endangered River," citing threats from "outdated water management, over-allocation, and persistent drought."
"One of the United States' most important resources, the Colorado River provides drinking water for 36 million people from Denver to Los Angeles, supports a $26 billion recreation industry, and irrigates nearly 4 million acres of land that grow 15 percent of our nation's crops," Chris Williams, senior vice president of conservation at American Rivers, wrote in a blog released Thursday.
"But it's also one of the most endangered, dammed, diverted and plumbed rivers in the world," he continued, "thanks to a century of management policies and practices that have promoted the use of Colorado River water at an unsustainable rate. By the time it reaches the Gulf of California in Mexico, the river is barely a trickle — a ghost of its once magnificent self."

This table is a fantastic choice for those meetings that involve any kind of presentation or speaker, it certainly will benefits these events thanks to its 'lucky' shape!
There's no strict formula for maintaining the concentration of your colleagues, delegates or students at meeting, but there are ways that you can help them focus. Seating style is one simple and effective way to encourage your guests to get involved and stay focused, with our horseshoe meeting table - a fantastic product to choose for events such as these. Adding a bit of variety to your functions is one way to inject some energy into occasions. Speakers often rely on increasingly technical presentations that may feature animations, clips and images, which can complement written material.
Some aspects of your venue may need to be adapted when you're arranging meetings, for example, you might have to order in some more tables, and make space in rooms, especially when you're organising a large events. It makes sense, that your guests will need to feel comfortable to concentrate, while the space you're preparing ought to also be free from noise and other distractions. But when it comes to your furniture what is the best set up for your occasion?
As experts in chair and table rental, we're always available to offer you advice on the type of products that'd suit you the best, in terms of space, time and budget. Most of our clients who hire our horseshoe meeting tables require products for meetings that could involve speakers, presentations or material being shown on whiteboard, flip charts or via projectors. When you're organising these events, it's crucial that those invited get an uninterrupted view of the material, which is exactly what the horseshoe product offers.
This item is made up of four 1200mm and two 1800mm modular tables, arranged in a horseshoe shape. With room for 14 people it's a great choice when you require seating for those meetings, tutorials and training sessions that feature speakers and/or presentations. Because each of the products that make up the table has an integrated folding leg mechanism, then you can get each one set up in seconds, and entire horseshoe configurations in minutes!
Some meetings may be planned for many months, others could occur at the last minute, in both of these situations the folding leg mechanism is a very practical feature, because you don't have to spend much time setting them up. This is of particular benefit when you have spur-of-the-moment events, as you can erect our tables very rapidly. Because this product is composed of four smaller items, you're free to divide and use them as you like.
Perhaps you've collapsed and stored our horseshoe meeting table but need some extra work surfaces for classrooms, or you'd like to divide up the product for group projects, all this is possible when you opt for our horseshoe item.
Another top feature of this product, is that it fits into so many different environments because of its contemporary finish. With a light oak surface composed from 25mm melamine, this item is also extremely sturdy, so you can trust it to work in schools, offices, reception areas and at different events too, such as product launches and career days.
