Mr. B.R. Ambedkar on the Constituent Assembly:
(From the Constituent Assembly debates volume 11)
"I feel, however good a Constitution may be, it is sure to turn out bad because those who are called to work it, happen to be a bad lot. However bad a Constitution may be, it may turn out to be good if those who are called to work it, happen to be a good lot.
The working of a Constitution does not depend wholly upon the nature of the Constitution. The Constitution can provide only the organs of State such as the Legislature, the Executive and the Judiciary. The factors on which the working of those organs of the State depend are the people and the political parties they will set up as their instruments to carry out their wishes and their politics. If they adopt the revolutionary methods, however good the Constitution may be, it requires no prophet to say that it will fail. It is, therefore, futile to pass any judgement upon the Constitution without reference to the part which the people and their parties are likely to play.
….On 26th January 1950, India will be an independent country (Cheers). What would happen to her independence? Will she maintain her independence or will she lose it again? This is the first thought that comes to my mind. It is not that India was never an independent country. The point is that she once lost the independence she had. Will she lose it a second time? It is this thought which makes me most anxious for the future. What perturbs me greatly is the fact that not only India has once before lost her independence, but she lost it by the infidelity and treachery of some of her own people. In the invasion of Sind by Mahommed-Bin-Kasim, the military commanders of King Dahar accepted bribes from the agents of Mahommed-Bin-Kasim and refused to fight on the side of their King. It was Jaichand who invited Mahommed Gohri to invade India and fight against Prithvi Raj and promised him the help of himself and the Solanki Kings. When Shivaji was fighting for the liberation of Hindus, the other Maratha noblemen and the Rajput Kings were fighting the battle on the side of Moghul Emperors. When the British were trying to destroy the Sikh Rulers, Gulab Singh, their principal commander sat silent and did not help to save the Sikh Kingdom. In 1857, when a large part of India had declared a war of independence against the British, the Sikhs stood and watched the event as silent spectators.
Will history repeat itself? It is this thought which fills me with anxiety. This anxiety is deepened by the realization of the fact that in addition to our old enemies in the form of castes and creeds we are going to have many political parties with diverse and opposing political creeds. Will Indians place the country above their creed or will they place creed above country? I do not know. But this much is certain that if the parties place creed above country, our independence will be put in jeopardy a second time and probably be lost for ever. This eventuality we must all resolutely guard against. We must be determined to defend our independence with the last drop of our blood.
On the 26th of January 1950, India would be a democratic country in the sense that India from that day would have a government of the people, by the people and for the people. The same thought comes to my mind. What would happen to her democratic Constitution? Will she be able to maintain it or will she lose it again. This is the second thought that comes to my mind and makes me as anxious as the first."
Sir Subash Chandra Bose addressing the INA:
"Let me remind you that you have a two-fold task to perform. With the force of arms and at the cost of your blood you will have to win liberty. Then, when India is free, you will have to organize the permanent army of Free India, whose task it will be to preserve our liberty for all time. We must build up our national defense on such an unshakable foundation that never again in our history shall we lose our freedom."
Swami Vivekanand at 'The World Parliament of Religions', Chicago:
"and I fervently hope that the bell that tolled this morning in honor of this convention may be the death-knell of all fanaticism, of all persecutions with the sword or with the pen, and of all uncharitable feelings between persons wending their way to the same goal."
I hope all these great men are at peace in the heavens.
Happy Republic Day, India.

BIG Review TV enters JV with The Intermedia Group
BIG Un Limited, the parent company of online video review platform BIG Review TV, has announced that it has formed a joint venture with The Intermedia Group (TIG) to co-develop, produce and promote online TV shows.
The Intermedia Group is the publisher of several high-profile online and print publications such as TimeOut Magazine, Fox Sports, Australian Technology Review, Hospitality, HM Magazine and InStyle.
In a statement to shareholders, BIG said it will produce online TV shows specifically designed for these industries that will be delivered to TIG's subscribers and audience as part of its digital publishing service.
The shows will be promoted across TIG's digital publishing network, on bigreviewtv.com, and on BIG's social media and YouTube channels. They will also be marketed for syndication to relevant third parties and to traditional broadcasting media.
The joint venture company has been registered as BIG Intermedia, and will hold the jointly-produced TV show assets.
BIG Un Limited CEO Richard Evertz and TIG's managing director, Simon Grover, will hold joint CEO roles within BIG Intermedia.
Grover said the company is delighted to be partnering with BIG to produce and promote online TV shows.
"BIG are Australia's largest producers of online video content. This JV provides a very strategic video solution," he said.
"Firstly, it allows BIG/TIG to offer engaging content to large advertising clients, as video is becoming increasingly important in the marketing and promotion of goods and services.
"Secondly, the shows will be constructed to deliver quality video content to entertain, engage and inform our SME audience. In order to enhance the vertical community experience, our existing TIG audience will be given the opportunity to participate in these shows.
"Thirdly, BIG's SME video packages provide unparalleled value to our customer base, and every business is going to need video content to stay relevant."
BIG executive director Brandon Everetz said the joint venture demonstrates the value of the company's video content.

JEFF GREEN HAS SET A STRONG BEAT since becoming the CEO of GROhio Community Credit Union 15 years ago.
And in the past four years, the credit union moved to new headquarters in Mansfield, Ohio, changed to a community charter, and more than doubled its assets from $4 million to $9 million.
He credits much of the growth to serving the lending needs of members—45% of whom have D and E credit scores and would be shunned by most other financial institutions. In fact, auto dealerships and area banks regularly send customers who they can't help to GROhio Community.
"We want to be known as the institution that helps you," says Green, pointing to the start of the credit union movement in the 1930s. Credit unions at the time helped people, including many blue-collar workers who couldn't get loans anywhere else. GROhio has about 4,500 blue-collar workers within half a mile of its headquarters.
"They are our best members," Green says. "They know that if they make their payments on time, they can get other loans here."
It's a win-win situation for the credit union, which enjoys a loan yield rate of 9.8%, according to Green.
He recommends that other credit union leaders similarly help blue-collar workers, which is still one of the biggest differences between credit unions and banks. "Credit unions have an opportunity to attract members from the banks who aren't serving them."
Green expects to teach that philosophy to his successor before retiring in six months and expects to share that philosophy as a credit union consultant after retirement.
He adds that serving members in the future will mean providing the technology for payments and other financial services that members expect.
"We're going from a cash to a cashless society," Green says. "We have an opportunity to provide members with the technology to satisfy their interest in continuing with a credit union or in moving from a bank. Unless people need to change something with their account, they don't come in to a branch to get cash anymore. We have to meet their needs."
Meeting the needs of members is something that Green takes pride in, though he is also quick to credit his associates: "They are the backbone and the front line of the credit union. I thank them every day. They make the credit union what it is."
As a leader, Green has made numerous contributions to his credit union, but he says he takes the most pride in serving members.
"In the past 15 years, I have helped a lot of people with loans that they couldn't get elsewhere," he says. "I hope members remember me as the one who helped them."

ALEX Salmond's vision for Scotland falls "far short of any meaningful concept of independence" according to two leading economists, in a major new intervention in the referendum debate.
Jim and Margaret Cuthbert, whose work on the Scottish economy has been regularly cited by SNP figures, declare that it is "not feasible that anything approaching independence can emerge from the current referendum".
Mr Salmond's eagerness to keep the pound after a Yes vote will bind Scotland in fiscal ties that will radically limit the country's ability to pursue its own taxation policy, they say. Instead, they describe his plan as a "token version".
They argue "genuine" independence is required to challenge "vested interests" – from the world of finance, land- owners and the European Union – which they argue have been "flattered and reassured, and . . . protected" by the SNP and are blocking progress in the country.
They also declare that "since real independence is not on offer" in next year's referendum, a No vote will not settle Scotland's constitutional dilemma, as the real article will not have been put to Scottish voters.
The pair – who state on their website that they are not "committed to the current constitutional structure of the UK" – have been prominent economists in Scotland for many years.
The SNP has previously backed their work on the UK's devolution reforms, describing them as "respected economists".
Last month, they wrote a paper backing a separate Scottish currency as the best way forward for an independent country. They have now contributed to a new book entitled Scotland's Road to Socialism to set out their views on the constitutional debate in greater depth.
But last night the party said it disagreed with them on this issue, saying Scotland would have 100 per cent control over its finances if people voted Yes.
The Cuthberts argue that change is necessary in a country of growing child poverty, high youth unemployment, and unfair land and wealth distribution. Any reform has to "threaten, and probably displace, some or all of the vested interests which currently hold sway" they add – naming the Crown, the landed interests, finance capitalism, globalised interests and the EU as the main targets.
It is, they argue, "vanishingly unlikely" that any of these interests will be taken on under the Union. Independence would give Scotland the powers to do so, they say.
But they note there is now a "referendum paradox" thanks to the position taken by the SNP, which proposes keeping the pound and the Bank of England, retaining a UK-wide financial regulation system, and staying on with the Queen as head of state. The SNP has also recently backed staying in Nato.
This proposal – dubbed "indy lite" – means that Scottish voters are not being presented with the option of a genuinely independent nation, the pair say.
Their intervention comes with the SNP facing pressure over its claim that Scotland can both keep the pound and enjoy a "monetary union" with the rest of the UK, and have full freedom to do as it pleases on taxation and spending.
The Cuthberts declare: "Something here does not add up. If Alex Salmond were to win a 'yes' vote, what he would have would be a mandate to negotiate for the establishment of something far short of any meaningful concept of independence."
Turning to the talks after a Yes vote on the SNP's proposals, they add: "Further, in these negotiations Westminster will not even go as far as the current limited vision of independence. If Scotland wants to have the Bank of England as lender of last resort, then Westminster could not possibly agree without binding up Scotland in fiscal ties which would radically limit its right to borrow, or to pursue an independent taxation policy."
Asked for examples of the restrictions likely to be demanded by Westminster, Dr Jim Cuthbert said last night it was "inconceivable" that the UK government would concede a lower rate of corporation tax in Scotland. The SNP has said it would slash the rate by 3 per cent after a Yes vote.
His comments are supported by the former chief economist of the Scottish Government, Dr Andrew Goudie who, writing in today's Scotsman, also warns that such flexibility would be "unlikely".
The Cuthberts argue that the First Minister has made a major error by not taking a more hardline negotiating position in the first place. They argue that only by claiming the full powers of genuine independence – over the ownership of oil assets, for example – would Scotland be able to negotiate from a position of strength.
Other left-wing contributors to the book warn that the SNP's vision will fail to bring about necessary changes. Former Labour MP and MSP John McAllion writes the SNP plan means that the "only real difference will be that we choose to embrace neo-liberalism ourselves rather than having it imposed upon us from the outside."
However, an SNP spokesman said: "We have great respect for Jim and Margaret Cuthbert, but disagree with them on this aspect. At present the Scottish Parliament controls just 7 per cent of Scotland's tax revenues.
"By voting Yes, Scotland controls 100 per cent of our nation's finances, which means we can take the policy decisions necessary to build a fairer society and stronger economy – a position already backed by over 500 business men and women in the pro-independence Business for Scotland group, and by Jim McColl, one of Scotland's leading job creators."
He added: "We agree with the recommendation of the Fiscal Commission that there should be a joint fiscal sustainability agreement to govern the level of borrowing and debt within the sterling area – but the reality is that Scotland's finances are consistently stronger than the UK's as a whole, and an independent Scotland will always wish to pursue sensible financial discipline."

Five contractors face a total of $115,200 in federal fines for allegedly exposing workers to falls and other safety hazards at a troubled student housing construction project in Lincoln, NE.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration discovered the hazards in December 2015 at Aspen Heights, a three-building apartment complex under construction.
The contractors were working to build a student-housing facility called Aspen Heights in Lincoln, NE. It is slated to open this fall, reports relate.
Workers at the site were exposed to fall hazards of up to five stories while performing framing activities, OSHA alleged in announcing the case Tuesday (June 14).
Moreover, OSHA said employees were exposed to fall hazards while working in the vicinity of a ladder system and floor hole, according to documents in the case.
5 Firms Cited
According to OSHA, the framing subcontractor, East Framing Inc. of Grimesland, NC, was fined $65,450 and South Georgia Framers, of Statesboro, GA, was fined $33,000. Each was cited with four alleged safety violations.
America's Best Siding, based in Fort Collins, CO, and ProCon Construction Services of Ailey, GA, were also cited for serious violations, carrying proposed fines of $9,100 and $3,150, respectively.
The project developer, Aspen Heights Partners, of Austin, TX, was also hit with $4,500 in proposed fines for three serious safety infractions. The developer did not immediately respond Wednesday (June 15) to a request for comment on the case.
"A worker's life can be forever altered or ended in the seconds it takes to fall," said Jeff Funke, OSHA's area director in Omaha.
"Controlling contractors and subcontractors have a responsibility to protect workers on its construction sites from falls, which cause four out of 10 workplace fatalities in the construction industry. More tragic than that is the reality that these falls are preventable."
The companies have 15 days to respond to the case.
Past Safety Issue
This isn't the first OSHA case involving unsafe conditions reportedly observed at the Lincoln Aspen Heights jobsite.
CBS Pilings Solutions Inc., a Riverside, MO-based drilling contractor, was cited in October 2015 for three serious safety violations after a 42-year-old worker was killed by an 80-foot piece of rebar that fell 130 feet from a crane, in June 2015.
In issuing those violations, the agency said the company failed to rig the load properly and to train employees to recognize struck-by hazards, and did not remove all non-essential employees from the fall zone during crane operations.
Proposed penalties in that case totaled $14,700.The company has contested the violations, according to the agency's online database.

Half Term Revision Sessions
The first event that took place on the 15th May 2017 was a netball fixture against Ysgol Dyffryn y Glowyr who are going to represent South Powys in the Netball Wales National Finals on Thursday 25th May 2017 in Cardiff. The idea of this fixture was that Ysgol Dyffryn y Glowyr could play a competitive game before the finals and also receive some extra coaching from Miss Millar, a former PE teacher at Ysgol Maesydderwen and current netball coach at Ystradgynlais Netball Club. Ysgol Maesydderwen put together a Year 7 squad to play the fixture. There was no score kept during the game but it was played to a very high standard and all pupils enjoyed. Parents from both teams attended to support the pupils and were encouraged by the links between the schools. Mr Roberts (DyG PE teacher) has requested that more fixtures be played between Ysgol Maesydderwen Year 7's and the local schools.
The second event that took place on the 16th May 2017 was a Year 3 and 4 Cluster Indoor Football Tournament. It was a 6-a-side festival with 10 in a squad. Every cluster school took part in the event. No results were recorded as they were just friendly fixtures. This is the third event across the year that has taken place for football for Years 3 and 4. Ysgol Maesydderwen pupil Jordon Hickey and former pupil and Freedom Leisure employee Jack Donnelly refereed the games. Over 50 kids took part in the event (girls and boys) and the hall was full of parents watching the games. Thank you to the volunteers that also helped coach the primary school teams.
The final event of the week was the Swansea Valley 7's Competition which was played on Ysgol Maesydderwen playing fields. This is the third event to be run in conjunction with the Swansea Valley Rugby Committee. Previously hosted events were the Swansea Valley 7s in September and the Swansea Valley 10s after Christmas. This event was open to any primary school within the Swansea Valley. The Ystradgynlais Cluster teams, however, always have all four schools taking part in each of the events. The WRU also linked with the event sending Iwan Evans, former pupil and Young Ambassador of Ysgol Maesydderwen, to referee and support the event. It was a round robin competition with five teams entered into the event. The eventual winners were Ysgol Dyffryn y Glowyr.

A well known Bradford Firm has apologised for a case of Food Poisoning.
It occurred when a customer was suspicious of a cheesecake that smelled of rotten eggs and also looked mouldy
The cake had been bought as a treat for a children's party and was served to nine children before the dangers of food poisoning were noticed.
One of the children suffered vomiting and diarrhoea. There was apparently no sell by date on the box.
The company who supplied the cake blamed an external provider. They offered a full apology.
Bradford Metropolitan Council Environmental Department had been informed and are investigating the matter.
This case shows the importance of adhering strictly to sell by dates to avoid the dangers of food poisoning.
All produce should be checked to avoid exceeding the sell by date.

By Julia Simpkins, U.S. Army Chaplain Center and SchoolMarch 20, 2014
FORT JACKSON, S.C. (March 20, 2014) -- Because of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, many Americans are somewhat familiar with Traumatic Brain Injury. What may not be common knowledge is that Soldiers with TBI aren't always victims of combat injuries. In the fall of 2012, Sgt. 1st Class Elijah Mack III was leading a ruck march at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Md., when he was hit by a truck and thrown into the air. He landed partially on his head.
He broke nine ribs, had a collapsed lung, damaged his spleen and both knees, fractured his right hip, had blunt force trauma to his shoulders and "road rash" on his head.
"(The other Soldiers) all thought I was dead," he said. Mack, a 43-year-old chaplain assistant from Brevard, N.C., said before the accident he had been, " ... a straight arrow, by-the-book type of man who met resistance with equal or greater force. I was serious, organized and even tempered. I was more mental than physical."
He always wanted to join the military and follow in his father's and grandfather's footsteps. Although he earned a bachelor's degree in Bible studies, he knew he wanted to be an enlisted Soldier.
He served as the installation chaplain's noncommissioned officer in charge. He had been in the Army 12 years and was scheduled to move to Germany with his family, "when my life changed." Mack was medically evacuated to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore, where he fought for his life from Nov. 26 to Dec. 6, 2012.
"(The other Soldiers) saw me go flying. I have no recollection of it. I was told I went flying into the air, and crashed down into the intersection. It happened across the street from the EMS building, so there was help almost right away," he said. "I remember waking up and hearing helicopter blades. That was a comfort to me because I couldn't remember anything about where I was or why I was there. I didn't understand at all what was happening."
"I found out that morning as I came in," said, Chaplain (Lt. Col.) Jerry Owens, APG installation chaplain and Mack's supervisor at the time. "Everyone was all upset. We were all in shock. We drove to Baltimore to Shock Trauma and met his wife, Liz. She was cracking jokes!"
Owens said Mack's wife dealt with the shock of her husband's injuries with humor. He said Mack's stay at Shock Trauma was rife with emergencies and frightening setbacks.
The Mack family has two children, Micaiah, then 13, and Isaac, then 5.
"(Liz) stayed with him the entire time," Owens said. "I saw him the next day. He was swollen for the first two weeks he was there and there was always a new danger. By week three they said he would live, but they were doing damage assessment. Before that they were just trying to keep him alive."
Once he was out of mortal danger, Mack was transferred to Walter Reed National Medical Center in Washington. It was there that he was diagnosed with moderate Traumatic Brain Injury. And that is where Mack began his long trek back to a new version of a normal life.
"I was injured from head to toe and I couldn't move. I had to learn how to walk ... it was frustrating. I had to relearn how to do the simple things that I had taken for granted before."
At Walter Reed, Mack endured physical therapy in one- to two-hour sessions, five days a week.
"It takes a lot of energy and effort and you're already zapped of energy. (The therapists) want you to keep on pushing. My lungs and ribs were healing, but I wasn't breathing correctly. I wasn't able to take in enough oxygen. I had to practice how to breathe properly," he said.
Because he was so physically compromised, each stride forward seemed like major progress for Mack. One small victory was being able to shave.
"I had grown a goatee. I was like, 'I'm a Soldier. I'm not supposed to look like this!''' he said.
The road to recovery saw Mack following a strict regimen of physical therapy and therapy to restore cognitive skills and tolerance.
The TBI impeded the recovery process, Mack said.
"I wasn't able to comprehend what I used to be able to do. Now I have to break it down step by step and write it down and have people check on me. I had to relearn to drive," he said. "Now, if I have a lot of information, it takes a while to process it. I get frustrated, angry and upset. TBI is for life. I know I've got it, but I won't let it hold me back."
When a Soldier is diagnosed with a moderate TBI, he or she has the option to leave military service. That option is something Owens discussed briefly with Mack.
"He was on convalescent leave for three months. By the fourth month he was back in the office, working half days. By month six he'd started picking up some of his former responsibilities. I remember sitting down with him. We asked him and his family what they wanted. I said, 'We'll be patient,'" Owens said. "Other NCOs, senior and junior, helped Mack. There was always command support. I felt like, 'We can do this.'"
Mack's office environment was a small, tight garrison, Owens said. There were six or seven other chaplain assistants throughout the post.
"They rallied behind me," Mack said. "My in-laws kept my kids at Fort Hood, (Texas). They're still there playing with their cousins. Without family support and daily encouragement it would have been a tough road."
Despite that, life's small challenges have become larger for him, Mack is managing his TBI and was assigned as NCO for the Center for Spiritual Leadership at the Army Chaplain School, an assignment a lesser NCO would not have been chosen for.
"They sent me here because they want me to tell my story," he said.
Because of the Chaplain Corps' Care to the Caregiver, of C2C, initiative, Mack was identified as a model of resiliency.
"It's important for Sgt. 1st Class Mack to tell his story so that others can see that recovery and healing is possible," said Chaplain (Lt. Col.) Daryl Hollowell, deputy director for the Center for Spiritual Leadership and Mack's supervisor.
Mack speaks to NCOs on post about what it's like to live with TBI, making it clear that one can continue to function successfully with the increased challenge.
"TBI is the unseen injury. I choose not to let it stop me," Mack said.

It has been another couple of very busy days. I am very fortunate that things are going so well and things keep me so busy. Not everything about what I do though is 'blog-worthy' or what I feel would be of interest. After all – how many times do you want to see photos of blank ornaments that I cut? I am sure it loses its impact after a bit.
But my month of January has been pretty much spent at the scroll saw. (or packaging boxes, or answering emails!) While I have been able to slip some new designs in there, filling orders has taken most of my time. I am not complaining though, as I am so thrilled that things seem to be taking off in such a wonderful and positive direction. It is what I worked for these past several years. I thank every single one of you for your support – whether you have become a customer, or are just reading. Without you, I wouldn't be doing what I love. (I will never get tired of saying that!)
So this morning as I was going through my Facebook news feed, I came across a post by an artist friend of mine named Kim. Kim has been designing and teaching decorative painting as long as I can remember. I owned several of her patterns and books many years before I met her here on the internet. I even met her in person once, many years ago in Indianapolis, and we had dinner together with the people from the magazines that I used to work for. We sat right next to each other and I remember her talking about her daughter's upcoming wedding. Who would think that so many years later we would become such good friends. It is funny how paths cross that way. We never know when a chance meeting will turn into a real friendship many years later, in such different venues. But life is crazy like that. That is what makes it so exciting and so hopeful.
In any case, Kim's post today talked about her 'word of the year.' Kim always has wonderful and inspiring posts. They are down to Earth and helpful and I admire not only her talent, but I like her very much as a person as well. I have no doubt if we lived closer we would be wonderful friends, sharing our creativity and love of art.
It made me think though . . .
If I were to pick a 'word of the year', what would it be? I had thought about that around New Year, when people are thinking of things like resolutions and setting new goals and things of that nature. But I never really settled on one particular word that I felt was fitting for me to focus on.
For some reason, today it hit me. As I read Kim's post and thought about things in the fog of my morning coffee, I decided on a 'theme' for myself for the year. Perhaps some of you think it is silly to do things like this, but to me, it feels good to define some of our goals and remind ourselves of them every now and then. If picking a 'word' to focus on helps us with that, then so be it. Whatever help us grow and thrive is good for me.
So the word I picked was "encouragement".
I thought about all the wonderful and encouraging friends and family members that I have in my life, and I realize that the impact that they have on me is huge. In both the art groups and the woodworking groups, people show their creations every day so that they can be encouraged (and sometimes helped) by others who have the same interests and love of creating. I find that those who surround themselves with positive and encouraging people are the ones that seem to thrive the best, and are the happiest. I, myself have benefitted so greatly from the kind words, encouragement and also critiques from my friends that a goal of mine is to be that kind of person to others. I want to support them and encourage them to do things that they perhaps feel they may not be able to do. I would like to help them overshadow the self-doubts they have with excitement and teach them that sometimes taking chances reaps great rewards. As a teacher, there is nothing that is more rewarding than seeing those you are teaching accomplish. I think that it the best reward there can be.
So even though nothing has really changed in my life, it seems that some things have. It is amazing what a difference a positive and focused mindset can make, and on those days when things may not go so well, I can always turn my focus to encouraging others. The good things that doing that will bring are bound to make even the difficult days better. Positive thinking can always move mountains. (Really!)
With that in mind, I am going to be spending my day working on my project for Toletown again. I spent Monday experimenting and coming up with a clear, concise method to achieve the colors and look that I wanted for the backgrounds of my project. I now feel confident that I will be able to share it with others when teaching the design, and I will be making a video of how I did it to go along with the pattern. I think the results is really cool:
And for all of those who wonder where I find my inspiration, just take a look around you. It truly is EVERYWHERE:
This is (once again) the photo of Monday mornings' sunrise.
I think not.
Have a beautiful and inspirational Wednesday!

DETROIT (AP) – Federal safety officials are investigating whether a Ford Motor Co. transmission recall should be widened to fix more than a million additional vehicles.
Ford recalled 153,000 vehicles in 2016 because their automatic transmissions could unexpectedly shift into first gear, causing drivers to lose control. The recall involved certain F-150 pickups, Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator SUVs and Ford Mustang sports cars from the 2011 and 2012 model years.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says it's now investigating whether Ford should have included up to 1.4 million F-150s, Navigators and Expeditions from the 2011 and 2012 model years as well as 2013 models.
The government says it's continuing to get complaints from owners, including some who say Ford's recall repair didn't work.
Ford says it's cooperating with the investigation.

CNIL releases its 2018 annual report and announces its next challenges for 2019
On April 15 2019, the French Data Protection Authority (the "CNIL") released its 2018 Annual Report (hereinafter the "Report"). The key practical insights of this Report are summarized in this article.

French legislator amends French Data Protection Act
On 12 December 2018, the French government adopted a new version of the French Data Protection Act by way of ordinance. As a reminder, the French legislator had authorized the French government to legislate by way of ordinance in order to achieve uniformity between French Data Protection law and the GDPR. The essential changes of the amended Act are summarized below.
Blog Post
Post-GDPR French Data Protection Law adopted
On 21 June 2018, a new law ("Loi n°2018-493 on the protection of personal data") was enacted which amends the existing French Data Protection Act (the "Act") in order to comply with the provisions set out in the GDPR and the Directive (EU) 2016/680 .

As I mentioned in a previous post, if you've Branded yourself well, then Marketing (to raise awareness about your music) and Selling (to get gigs) should be much easier to do. Branding is the totality of your public image and having a good Brand is tantamount to making all other aspects of your business move more smoothly. As Peter Montoya stated (I quoted him in the post above):
Branding happens before marketing or selling; it's their source. Without a strong brand, marketing is generally ineffective and selling is like beating your head against a wall of sales resistance. A strong brand is the rock-solid foundation for all marketing, because every other aspect of a product's identity–its logo, how its ads are written, who its spokesperson is–is based on that brand. Branding is the reason customers consider a product in the first place.
When you have a strong Personal Brand out in the world working for you, you'll attract new business without even trying. Prospects will come to you after multiple exposures to your brand, and they'll come 90 percent sold on you already. All you'll need to do is close the sale. We've seen it time and time again. New business with no work. If that's not cool, nothing is.

Forty-Three Students Vanished And There's Still No Justice
Evidence mounts that officials in Mexico colluded with criminals as students disappeared
WIB front October 2, 2017 Parker Asmann
This article originally appeared at InSight Crime.
It remains unclear exactly how 43 students from a rural teacher's college in Mexico disappeared three years ago. And much of what is known about the case has come not from the Mexican government, but rather from investigations by journalists and non-governmental groups, illustrating the state's failure to clarify one of the most shocking instances of criminality in Mexico's recent history.
In the evening hours of Sept. 26, 2014, 57 students from the Ayotzinapa Rural Teachers' College disappeared in the city of Iguala in the western state of Guerrero. Fourteen of the missing students were found days later on Sept. 30, but there were no signs of the remaining 43.
In January 2015, the Mexican government concluded that municipal police in the city of Iguala had intercepted the students, leading to a confrontation that killed six people, injured 25 and left several vehicles destroyed. The government's "historical truth" determined that Iguala police had handed the students over to a local criminal group known as the Guerreros Unidos, who had allegedly mistaken the students for rival gang members.
Felipe Rodríguez Salgado, alias "El Terco" or "El Cepillo," the alleged leader of the Guerreros Unidos, later testified that he had ordered the students to be killed and their bodies burned at a trash dump in the nearby town of Cocula.
However, several investigations by independent experts cast doubt on the government's version of the events. For instance, investigators have found that the evidence at the trash dump did not correspond with temperatures needed to burn 43 bodies, government witnesses had varying versions of the events, and doubts remained regarding who actually ordered the students' apparent murders.
More than 100 people have been arrested for their alleged involvement in the students' disappearance, but the case remains unsolved.

InSight Crime analysis
Much of what is known about the fate of the Ayotzinapa students has come from journalists and civil society groups. This can be viewed as a testament to these actors' commitment to finding the truth, but also as a sign that the Mexican government has failed to advance — much less solve — this case.
In fact, there is mounting evidence that the Mexican government has not only failed to fulfill its obligation to properly investigate the disappearance of the 43 students, but that officials have actively attempted to block the progress of various probes into the incident.
Government bodies reportedly refused to hand over evidence to a team of independent international investigators, who were targeted by spying software and subjected to a smear campaign meant to undermine their work.
Maureen Meyer, the senior associate for Mexico at the Washington Office on Latin America, described the government's failures in the case as "unjustifable."
"The lack of progress in a case that the Mexican government has called 'the most exhaustive investigation in the history of Mexico,' along with mounting evidence that public officials obstructed justice and impeded the investigation, has come to symbolize the widespread impunity found within Mexico's troubled criminal justice system and the government's lack of political will to credibly investigate and sanction human rights violations," Meyer said in a press release.
On the other hand, a number of journalistic investigations have uncovered key details about the Ayotzinapa case, and have kept it in the international spotlight.
Earlier this month the Forensic Architecture independent research agency based at Goldsmiths, University of London, released an interactive platform that transposes "publicly available investigations, videos, media stories, photographs and phone logs" into thousands of data points that map the different incidents that took place on the night of the confrontation and in the days following the disappearance of the 43 students.
The researchers say their visualization demonstrates the "level of collusion and coordination between state agencies and organized crime throughout the night."
Given the Mexican government's demonstrated inability or unwillingness to get to the bottom of this tragic incident, it appears that independent initiatives like these will continue to be crucial to uncovering what really happened that night in Iguala.
