McAuliffe Campaign Denounces Lincoln Project's 'Disgusting And Distasteful' Tiki Torch Stunt
Democratic gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe denounced the Lincoln Project's Friday morning tiki torch stunt designed to falsely link Republican gubernatorial candidate Glenn Youngkin to white nationalism.
"What happened today is disgusting and distasteful and we condemn it in the strongest terms. Those involved should immediately apologize," McAuliffe campaign manager Chris Bolling said in a statement to the Daily Caller News Foundation.
The Lincoln Project, a pro-Democratic group, took responsibility for the five individuals who were pictured by NBC29 reporter Elizabeth Holmes Friday morning outside a Youngkin campaign bus proclaiming their support for the Republican candidate while holding tiki torches and wearing khakis, white button-up shirts and baseball caps.
One of the individuals pictured was black. The individuals' outfits appear to resemble what white supremacists wore during the deadly 2018 "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville.
These men approached @GlennYoungkin's bus as it pulled up saying what sounded like, "We're all in for Glenn." Here they are standing in front of the bus as his campaign event at Guadalajara started.@NBC29 pic.twitter.com/l681ejyBjc
— Elizabeth Holmes (@holmes_reports) October 29, 2021
Multiple Democratic operatives, including McAuliffe spokeswoman Christina Freundlich, used the images to allege Youngkin's supporters were white nationalists.

— Alec Sears (@alec_sears) October 29, 2021
The Lincoln Project issued a statement Friday afternoon taking responsibility for the stunt.
"Today's demonstration was our way of reminding Virginians what happened in Charlottesville four years ago, the Republican Party's embrace of those values, and Glenn Youngkin's failure to condemn it," the group said.
Youngkin campaign spokesman called the McAuliffe campaign the "dirtiest, nastiest, most dishonest campaign in Virginia history" Friday morning shortly after the images of the tiki torch stunt surfaced.
Terry McAuliffe's campaign has been the dirtiest, nastiest, most dishonest campaign in Virginia history.
This morning they're closing out his career by going even lower. #VAgov
— Matt Wolking (@MattWolking) October 29, 2021
McAuliffe spokesperson Renzo Olivari told Fox News on Friday hours before the Lincoln Project took responsibility for the stunt that nobody affiliated with the campaign had any involvement.
"There is one candidate in this race who has embraced white nationalists — and his name is Glenn Youngkin," Olivari said.

- PM Boris Johnson's Freedom Day was marred as NHS app advised many people to self-isolate due to surge in cases.
- Due to NHS app recommendations, many businesses are facing staff shortage.
Many businesses in the UK on Monday faced confusion after s a large number of employees are being asked to self-isolate after they got a ping from the NHS Covid-19 app in the wake of surge in Covid-19 cases. This has prompted many to temporary close their operations due to staff shortage. The confusion started after two ministers said that staff could go to work even if they get a ping from the NHS officials advising them to self-isolate.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson's who had declared Monday as the Freedom Day, which ended year-long Covid-19 lockdown restriction, was marred, as cases are surging, and many businesses are facing staff shortage due to the NHS notification of self-isolation for 10 days.
On his part, PM Johnson said most people in the UK are now vaccinated, where around 87% of the adult population has got one vaccination dose, and over 68% have had got both the doses. However, experts have condemned Johnson's move to reopen as the situation could worsen as social distancing rules have been scrapped. But if the vaccines prove effective in reducing cases, Johnson's decision could offer a path out of the worst public health crisis in decades. If not, more restrictions could be implemented in the near future.
What is the pingdemic?
The word was coined from ping and pandemic, which referred to the notifications or pings sent by the NHS Covid-19 app advising self-isolation for a set amount of time. According to news reports, the number of such pings have gone up in the past few weeks as the number of new variant cases have risen sharply, leading to closures affecting operations of some major industries.
Also read: Spike in Covid cases: Which sectors are likely to get impacted most?
Most have been pinged to isolate for 10 days, though this can be longer if the person goes on to develop symptoms themselves.
Johnson's big day was ruined by "pingdemic chaos" as NHS sources reported that more than 520,000 exposure notifications were sent out in the week to 7 July, a 46% rise from the previous week and highest till date. On Friday, the UK recorded 51,870 new coronavirus cases, the highest daily figure in last six months.
This has resulted in staff shortage and disruption in industries where there is no choice to work from home, such as supermarkets and transport networks. Already, pubs, restaurants, supermarkets, schools, and factories are reporting staff shortages.
Johnson has been warned that the economic recovery could be hampered as millions could be pinged by the NHS app in the next few weeks with cases expected to hit around 100,000 a day.
On Friday, Johnson's spokesman said that the app was working as it is designed to do and there are no plans to change its sensitivity.
The UK has seventh highest death count in the world with around 128,708 deaths. It is being predicted that the numbers may surge even more than the second wave of the coronavirus cases earlier this year.
Staff Crunch
The staff absence increased by 50% last week and the trends are going north affecting supply chains and logistics network.
On Sunday, rail passengers in England have been warned of delay due to shortages of staff as too many drivers were asked to self-isolate. Commuters were advised not to travel on specific routes, such as Sheffield, Doncaster, Lincoln and York because of the unscheduled delays.
On Saturday, the Metropolitan line on the Tube in London was entirely closed, while other lines faced delay due to shortage of drivers.
Garages are forced to make mass cancellations as mechanics were being forced to isolate because of which drivers are being warned of a potential MOT backlog.
Mark & Spencer senior staff said that one in five their supermarket staff are notified to stay in self-isolation as a result they have to reduce store hours due to shortage of staffs.
Several staff members at the Royal Mail in Peterborough were also pinged suggesting self-isolation, prompting concerns that delivery and postal services in the city would be disrupted.
Carmakers Rolls-Royce and Nissan also reported that their manufacturing plants faced major disruption as up to 900 employees, almost 15% of the workforce, were advised to self-isolate after a positive test.
The Duke of Cumberland pub also announced that they had to close for a few days as most of its staff has been notified for self-isolation, even though past few week they tried to keep the operations running with reduced staffs.
The Hospitality sector of UK is already struggling with staff crunch. and it is reported that 1 in 5 workers are reportedly isolating.
On Sunday, Johnson and finance minister Rishi Sunak announced that they would not be self-isolating after they came in contact with Sajid Javid, who has tested positive, this lead to several chaos and criticism.
Within three hours, they reversed the isolation decision, after facing several criticisms from MPs and health experts.
Changing rules
The rules for self-isolation are set to change from 16 August. From that day, people who have taken all the doses of vaccine will not have to self-isolate even if they come into contact with a person who has tested positive.
Instead, people will be contacted by NHS Test and Trace team and will be advised to take a PCR test. If that test comes positive, then they must isolate.
Regardless of vaccination status, if a person tests positive, he has to isolate for 10 days.
However, the UK government has demanded to bring this date forward for those who are fully vaccinated.

Hi swift-evolution!
Robert Widmann and I have been working on a Swift wrapper for LLVM (https://github.com/harlanhaskins/LLVMSwift\) and we're lamenting the lack of C++ support in SwiftPM.
Ideally, we'd be able to write C++ files that expose C APIs for LLVM APIs that aren't yet exposed in the llvm-c API.
Before we write a proposal for C++ files in SwiftPM targets, are there any concerns/things we should consider?

The crowd in Dublin chanted, "We stand with her" and other chants, such as:
Wherever we are, wherever we go, yes means yes, no means no.
Speaking at the protest in Dublin Elaine from Malahide said:
If you don't run away screaming it doesn't mean you've consented. Consent is actively given, if you haven't actively given consent – you haven't consented.
Solidarity-PBP TD Bríd Smith says the turnout represents an anger women in Ireland are feeling over issues of consent and their bodies.
Gardaí said the road was not closed off, but motorists were delayed.
Solidarity-PBP TD Ruth Coppinger announced a protest for 2pm on Saturday afternoon.
Demonstrations were also held in Cork, Limerick, Galway and Belfast.

After beeing in the work for quite some time JAMES BLAKE's often delayed third album Radio Silence is finally completed. The songwriter spread the news last night during his BBC Radio 1 Residency. He also shared a new song called Timeless which follows the previously unleashed piece Modern Soul. About the new record BLAKE explains:
'I said it a couple of months ago that I think it's time to start recording an album because–you know–there've been requests. People have been asking if I'm going to record a record, so I did one. It turned out great–quite long, but I'm really happy with it. It's 18 tracks long. Yeah, one of the tracks is 20 minutes long, as well.'
No word yet on when to expect the follow-up to 2013's Overgrown but it might be sooner than later. We'll keep you updated. Enjoy Timeless in the meantime below.

Bruno Fernandes scored a hat-trick for Manchester United in a stunning 5-1 victory over rivals Leeds United at Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon.
Mason Greenwood and Fred also found the net for Ole Gunnar Solskjær's dominant hosts in Manchester, while Paul Pogba also registered four assists as the Red Devils made a winning start to the 2021/22 Premier League season in front of 75,000 fans.
Fernandes opened the scoring on the half-hour mark in front of a packed Old Trafford crowd, slotting his finish past Illan Meslier after Paul Pogba's excellent through ball punished the Leeds goalkeeper's poor kick-out.
Luke Ayling's wonderful strike from 20 yards three minutes after the interval drew Marcelo Bielsa side level in the 49th minute. The Leeds defender unleashed a rocket into the far top corner after being allowed far too much space outside the United box.
Greenwood restored the hosts' lead three minutes later with a crisp finish to the bottom right-hand corner after Pogba's wonderfully weighted through ball played the young English attacker in behind the Leeds defence.
Portugal international Fernandes made it 3-1 a minute later, faking a shot before cutting in on his left foot and firing a low finish into the net, with Pogba providing his third assist of the night.
The Red Devils midfielder completed his hat-trick on the hour mark with a delightful half-volley from Victor Lindelof's lofted through ball from just inside the United half.
Fred added a fifth for the hosts in the 68th minute from yet another Pogba assist, arriving in the box to side-foot the Frenchman's inviting low cross into the net to cap off a fine display from Ole Gunnar Solskjær's men.
There was also a debut for summer signing Jadon Sancho, who replaced Pogba with 20 minutes remaining. Leeds had a great chance to reduce the deficit late on when Raphinha was put through on goal by substitute Helder Costa, but the Leeds winger fired his effort wide with only David de Gea to beat.
United have now won their opening Premier League game of a season for the 20th time, while Leeds have conceded five goals or more in each of their last two away games against Manchester United in all competitions.
Next up for the Red Devils is a trip to Southampton next weekend. Leeds will host Everton at Elland Road.

Cllr Matthew Dorrance Our Local Voice | Ein Llais Lleol
Powys County Council is selling the Grade II listed chapels at Brecon Cemetery without any consultation with the local community.
In an email to local Councillor Matthew Dorrance, Powys County Council said that the chapels have "been declared surplus to the Council's requirements."
The chapels are located in the cemetery grounds but the County Council has failed to give any assurances about their future use if sold.
The Grade II listed buildings are described by CADW as an "early example of a nineteenth century Gothic cemetery chapel, well-designed and preserved." The chapels are listed along with the cemetery gatepiers and gates which were recently restored when CADW intervened after Powys County Council wrongly dismantled them.
Councillor Matthew Dorrance says he is concerned about the proposals and the Council's uncaring and insensitive attitude.
The Brecon, St John Ward Councillor said:
"Many families in Brecon, just like mine, have people they care about resting in Brecon Cemetery. The proposal to sell the chapels with no consultation or information about what they could be used for is worrying people who have laid the ones they care about to rest there.
"I've been contacted by residents who are very concerned about what the proposals will mean and how the sale of the chapels will impact on the cemetery. The Council needs to understand those concerns and listen to local people.
"Powys County Council's refusal to talk to local people about their plans shows how out of touch with the community they really are."

Curious about whether Life360 notifies others when you delete the app? Well, let me clear up the confusion for you. When you uninstall or delete the Life360 app from your device, it does not send any notifications to other users on your Circle. So, rest assured that removing the app won't trigger any alerts to your family members or friends who are connected through Life360.
Deleting the Life360 app simply means that you will no longer appear on their map and they won't be able to track your location. It's a personal choice that allows you to have more privacy and control over your own whereabouts. However, keep in mind that if you decide to reinstall the app in the future, it may take some time for it to sync with your Circle again.
Does Life360 Notify When You Delete The App
Push Notifications
When it comes to the question of whether Life360 notifies you when you delete the app, the answer is no. Life360 does not send push notifications directly informing other members that you have uninstalled the app from your device. This means that if you decide to remove Life360 from your phone, your family or circle members will not receive an immediate notification about it.
Email Alerts
Unlike push notifications, Life360 does send email alerts to family or circle members when someone deletes their account entirely. If you choose to delete your Life360 account instead of just uninstalling the app, an email notification will be sent out to all connected members. This email will inform them that your account has been deleted and they will no longer be able to track your location or access any other information associated with your profile.
It's important to note that simply uninstalling the app without deleting your account won't trigger any email alerts. The notification system only applies when a member decides to completely remove themselves from Life360.
In-App Messages
Life360 also offers in-app messaging functionality for users who want to communicate within their family or circle group. However, if you delete the app, you won't receive any in-app messages from other members since you won't have access to the application anymore. Similarly, other members won't be notified within the app itself if someone removes it from their device.
In summary, while Life360 doesn't notify other members through push notifications when someone deletes the app from their device, it does send email alerts when a user chooses to delete their entire account. Additionally, in-app messages are only received by active users of the app and won't reach individuals who have uninstalled it.
Remember that these features may be subject to change as technology evolves and updates are made by Life360 developers. It's always best practice to refer back to the Life360 website or support resources for the most up-to-date information on app functionality and notifications.
What Happens When You Delete the Life360 App?
If you're considering deleting the Life360 app from your device, you may be wondering what happens next. Will Life360 notify anyone when you delete the app? Let's delve into this question and shed some light on what to expect.
- No direct notification: When you delete the Life360 app, the platform itself does not send out a direct notification to other members of your Circle or family. This means that they won't receive an alert specifically informing them that you have deleted the app.
- Limited functionality: Deleting the Life360 app will result in a loss of functionality for both you and other members of your Circle. As an individual who deletes the app, you will no longer be visible on their maps, and they won't have access to your location updates.
- Alerts for inactive users: It's worth noting that if a member of your Circle becomes inactive or stops sharing their location altogether (whether intentionally by deleting the app or due to technical issues), Life360 may send out automated alerts to others in the Circle notifying them of this change in status. However, these alerts do not explicitly mention whether someone has deleted the app or simply stopped sharing their location temporarily.
- Consider communication: To avoid any confusion or concerns among your Circle members, it might be a good idea to communicate with them before deleting the Life360 app. Letting them know about your decision can help maintain transparency and prevent unnecessary worry.
In conclusion, when you delete the Life360 app from your device, it does not send out a specific notification informing others about this action. However, it is essential to keep in mind that there may still be automated alerts triggered if someone becomes inactive within their Circle or stops

All of us are familiar with the fact that we have to take home maintenance measures from time to time in order to prolong the life of the house. Sometimes, the last thing that crosses our minds is cleaning the gutters. During heavy rains, the water that gets deposited on your roof has to be drained out in a very short time.
This is what the gutter system does, as it channels the rainwater through the roof edges, draining it out through downpipes. Having your gutters cleaned often prevents build-up and clogging and keeps them in good working condition. When your gutters are blocked, the rainwater could end up building rapidly.
Problems That Can Arise When Gutters are Not Cleaned
When proper cleaning of the gutters is not done from time to time, it can lead to water damage in the house. These problems can get aggravated during heavy rains. Let us take a look at some of the risks that can occur if the gutters are not cleaned.
1. Pest Problems: When gutters get blocked with leaves and debris, it can provide an environment for pests to make a home. You might be welcoming mice, birds, squirrels, and mosquitoes into your home.
This is because when the gutters are blocked, they tend to get damaged and develop holes and cracks in the walls and foundation. These pests can enter your home through these entrances. Unless you do something about the gutters, calling the exterminators to deal with the pests will most likely not do much.
2. Increasing illnesses and allergies: Another problem that can arise from water damage and cracks in the home is growing mould and pollen. If members of your family are prone to allergies and sickness, the increased levels of mould and pollen can worsen their health and trigger allergies.
If you see mould developing in any part of the house, you should try to fix the problem as soon as possible. Getting the gutters cleaned ensures that the problem does not worsen. Living with mould can come with long term consequences for the health.
3. Structural damage to the house: Clogged gutters do not just cause water leaks but also contribute to the structural damage of the house. When the gutters are blocked, they can shift the foundation, cause soil erosion and destroy the gardens. In addition to this, it can also lead to cracks in the walls, foundation and chimney, besides flooding in the basement.
The siding of the house can also start rotting, and the water damage could end up seeping into the walls and the windows. Fixing these issues can turn out to be very expensive, so it is best to prevent them from arising by undertaking regular gutter cleaning.
4. Extensive roof damage: If the gutters are not cleaned, heavy rains and snow can make ice dams in the roof and cause a lot of issues. Ice dams are formed when the melting snow refreezes on the roof. If this issue is not dealt with on time, it can cost you a lot of money as you would have to get your roof replaced.
5. Ruins the aesthetics of the house: Although this issue seems like a minor problem compared to structural and water damage, clogged gutters generally make the house look very dirty.
Since the water in a clogged gutter seeps into the walls and the windows, damaging them in the process, it can definitely make your house look very unappealing. It will also be quite noticeable for the neighbour and passersby and make it look like the home is neglected.
6. Affect the warranty of your home: Many home insurances stipulate that regular gutter cleaning is required if you want to cover roof repairing/installation in the warranty. It is best to stay ahead on the gutter cleaning to avoid affecting the home warranty.
How to Undertake Gutter Cleaning?
Now that you know how important it is to undertake scheduled gutter cleaning, let us explore how you can go about gutter maintenance. The gutters should ideally be cleaned once a year or sometimes twice. It is best to get them cleaned during the fall season, however, some houses which have a lot of trees also get them cleaned during spring.
Components of a Gutter System: The gutters help in the tunnelling water off the roof and away from the house through downpipes. The following components are part of the gutter system
· Gutter: Runs through the edges of your roof
· End cap: Used in closing the gutters.
· Fascia bracket: Provide structural support by connecting to the eaves
· Downspout: Helps in removing the water from the roof to the ground.
· Elbow: Is attached to the downspout to redirect the rainwater away from the house.
DIY gutter cleaning vs getting them cleaned professionals: If you wish to do the gutter cleaning yourself, you would need to have a steady footing on high ladders and a host of tools. These tools consist of a trowel, buckets, work gloves, garden hose, protective glasses and a gutter cleaning kit. To make sure that the gutters are cleaned thoroughly, it is best to entrust this job to a professional or a gutter cleaning gold coast specialist.
It is also safer than doing all the cleaning yourself. Professionals can clean out the dirt, debris and algae thoroughly and also inspect the gutter to ascertain that it is functioning properly. If any parts need replacement or repair, the gutter cleaning specialist can look after that as well.
Professionals can also suggest you get wired mesh and gutter guards installed, which help in trapping the debris before it reaches the gutter in the future.
From this discussion, it is amply evident how important it is to undertake scheduled gutter cleaning. The risks that can arise out of inadequate gutter system maintenance can cause huge damages to the structure of the house. Every homeowner knows that prevention is better than cure. It is best to contact a specialist to get your gutters cleaned professionally.

Peutz-Jeghers syndrome
PJSPeutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) is a rare disorder in which growths called polyps form in the intestines. A person with PJS has a high risk for developing certain cancers.
It is unknown how many people are affected by PJS. However, the National Institutes of Health estimates that it affects about 1 in 25,000 to 300,000 births.
PJS is caused by a mutation in the gene called STK11 (previously known as LKB1). There are two ways that PJS can occur:
- Familial PJS is inherited through families as an autosomal dominant trait. That means if one of your parents has this type of PJS, you have a 50% chance of inheriting the gene and having the disease.
Autosomal dominant
Autosomal dominant is one of many ways that a trait or disorder can be passed down through families. In an autosomal dominant disease, if you get the...
Read Article Now Book Mark Article - Spontaneous PJS is not inherited from a parent. The gene mutation occurs on its own. Once someone carries the genetic change, their children have a 50% chance of inheriting it.
Symptoms of PJS are:
- Brownish or bluish-gray spots on the lips, gums, inner lining of the mouth, and skin
- Clubbed fingers or toes

Exams and Tests
The polyps develop mainly in the small intestine, but also in the large intestine (colon). An exam of the colon called a colonoscopy will show colon polyps. The small intestine is evaluated in two ways. One is a barium x-ray (small bowel series). The other is a capsule endoscopy, in which a small camera is swallowed and then takes many pictures as it travels through the small intestine.
Additional exams may show:

- NIH Genetic and Rare Diseases Information Center -- rarediseases.info.nih.gov/diseases/7378/peutz-jeghers-syndrome
Outlook (Prognosis)
There may be a high risk for these polyps becoming cancerous. Some studies link PJS with cancers of the gastrointestinal tract, lung, breast, uterus, and ovaries.
Possible Complications

When to Contact a Medical Professional
Contact your provider for an appointment if you or your child has symptoms of this condition. Severe abdominal pain may be a sign of an emergency condition such as intussusception.

Several bands of thunderstorms are tonight moving back in to northern and western parts of the country. Taranaki, Waikato, Coromandel, Bay of Plenty Auckland and Northland have the highest risk for thunderstorms overnight tonight.
Head weather analyst Philip Duncan says around 19,850 stirikes have been recorded today by the Weather Watch Centre's Lightning Radar, mostly off shore of Taranaki and Bay of Plenty but a large number were also recorded onland including some loud thunder booms which woke a number of Aucklanders early this morning.
At 9pm Northland and Waitomo were bearing the brunt of the storms.
In the past few hours the storms have gathered strength in the Tasman Sea and are already starting to move onshore in places like Waitomo, Waikato and Northland, with Auckland following suit before midnight.
Mr Duncan says several thousand more strikes are probably still to come over the next 24 hours.
"Localised heavy downpours may cause flash or surface flooding so motorists should take extreme care tonight".

Actor-dancer Nora Fatehi has grabbed eyeballs for her sensuous belly dancing in the recreated song "Dilbar" from upcoming film Satyameva Jayate. The song is topping the charts and Nora is ecstatic.
The song from the film 'Sirf Tum' originally had Sushmita Sen and it became quite a rage during the late 90s.
Now Susmita Sen reacted to Nora Fatehi's Dilbar song "Nora was absolutely fantastic in it and my favourite part of this song is the first two lines, which they added (in the revamped version) and is very well-done. The remix is also very well done. Nora has absolutely killed it but I still like the original version more!"
On the work front, Nora Fatehi will be next seen in Salman Khan starrer Bharat.

David Fair: This is 89 one WEMU, and the new academic year is about a month old now. I'm David Fair, and I'd like to welcome you to this week's edition of Washtenaw United. Over the years, we've developed a growing understanding of the importance of early childhood education and the role that plays in creating opportunity and success and helping in the ongoing effort to achieve community equity and equality. The Washtenaw Intermediate School District's Early Childhood Development Department works with over 2,000 kids from birth through age five and touches every school district in Washtenaw County. Today, our guest is going to help us better understand the impacts of early involvement and the ongoing evolution of early development programs. Eddie Manuszak joined the WISD this past June as executive director for Early Childhood Development. Prior to that, he spent six years as superintendent of Dundee Community Schools in Monroe County and 28 years as a public educator now. Well, thank you so much for making time for us today, Eddie. I really appreciate it.
Eddie Manuszak: Oh, thank you very much for having me on the program.
David Fair: I mentioned that your department assists from birth to age five and beyond as well, but I'm really interested in that age range. What does the program look like assisting from birth forward?
Eddie Manuszak: Really, it starts with the idea that children at prenatal, the care that that mother gets ahead of giving birth, is also very essential. And so, we have partnerships around the county help us get the word out about making sure that that pregnancy needs to be sacred, that we want to help with. But then, once that child is born, we truly want to have the ability to go what we refer to, or I refer to as, from cradle into kindergarten. We want to really be that partner working closely with that family in making sure that they are being taken care of and if there are any needs that they have, our department does have those resources for them. We also have our resources and programs and the ability to offer support to every family in every portion of our community here in Washtenaw County.
David Fair: How do these programs go about identifying those potential learning and/or behavioral issues and address them as the kids move through the various stages of development?
Eddie Manuszak: Well, again, another great question, and this is where we rely on our partnerships that we have with parents and caregivers and guardians. They are clearly the child's first teacher. They are in a position where they're offering that nurturing environment in the very first moments of life and then throughout that child's early life, along with organizations, you know, doctors and mental health agencies, you know, other service agencies, other community-based organizations to give us referrals. We also have a very active campaign to inform the public about the services that we have that we provide. So, our hope is offering insight, so that families are made aware that the Washtenaw Intermediate School District's Early Childhood Department is here to serve.
David Fair: Washtenaw United and our conversation on early childhood development continues on 89 one WEMU with Eddie Manuszak. He is Executive Director of the Early Childhood Development Department at the Washtenaw Intermediate School District. Has the U.S. Department of Education been able to track tangible evidence that the programs are making an impact on the student experience later on in life and the educational outcomes?
Eddie Manuszak: David, another great question. And so, you know, this is where the national work that I've done prior to my arrival here in Washtenaw County coordinating and leading a national effort--it's called the AASA Early Learning Cohort--has really opened me up to getting to know national early leaders around the nation. There is evidence-based practices that we are tracking that the U.S. Ed Department does track. And the significant impact that early childhood is having is clear. We know that a child's brain develops--90% of it develops--by the time they're age five. So, if we continue to what I refer to as frontloading all of our services, you go into making early childhood matter most in an early education environment. We then are doing our due diligence by allowing that child to really start in their educational career or just their life in a very positive manner because early childhood is an equity-based initiative. And your zip code should not define the quality of the educational experience that any child should receive. And that goes for all the children here in Washtenaw County.
David Fair: We certainly know that there are racial and income disparities, as you mentioned, very often defined by zip code. So, how are the programs and services that the WISD offers funded so that they are accessible to all?
Eddie Manuszak: Yeah. So, we as a department take our guidance from...I know the Great Start Readiness Program offers us guidance and then also the National Office of Head Start offers us guidance in this as well. And so, we do have the ability to offer services to all children in the county and in those communities where there is potentially a lower socioeconomic status. Their poverty index is higher, maybe their free and reduced lunch rate is higher in that local district. And then, we are then able to offer those communities and those districts more resources, so that we can then meet the needs of those children and their families on a greater basis.
David Fair: Once again, we're talking with the executive director of the Early Childhood Development Department at the Washtenaw Intermediate School District. And we are certainly happy that we have Eddie Manuszak along today. Now, those the children encounter are going to be exceedingly important. So, how much is not only preparing the teachers and coaches and counselors, but providing them the resources necessary, so they can best serve the students? I'm sure you hear it all the time. A lot of work is put on the table for these teachers and compensation is not going up to match inflation, and they're spending more of their personal money just to meet the responsibilities of the job. So, how do we ensure that there are enough people and that those people are trained, qualified, and in a good place, both professionally and emotionally, to care for these children?
Eddie Manuszak: I have to say, David, your questions are wonderful. These are amazing, on-target questions that we are all addressing, you know, not just in the early childhood education arena, but we're now talking about in what I refer to as the P-26 arena where, you know, from prenatal to age 26. You know, teacher shortages right now are prevalent. We are working steadfastly on really impacting and increasing our capacity as an organization to what we refer to as creating a better teacher pipeline. One of the things I come across on a national basis is University of California-Berkeley has a department that dedicates itself to studying in the amount of pay a teacher or, you know, professional educator, especially those in the early childhood field gives. And, unfortunately, their research shows that the lower the age, so the younger the child, the less that individual will make. Because, as you are aware, the $800 billion package for universal child care and preschool did not make it into the approved budget.
David Fair: Right.
Eddie Manuszak: And so, we are working hard as an advocacy agency to kind of organize this voice--this collective voice--about this is a really important issue. And, you know, since 2022 or since 2020 to today in the childcare field, not just within Head Start or Great Start or early Head Start, but I'm talking childcare field. There are a million less workers nationwide in the childcare field since the pandemic has begun. And I know that the superintendent, the Washtenaw Intermediate School District Superintendent Norman, is meeting with other superintendents. I'm meeting with superintendents, really coming up with these ideas of trying to create these teacher pipelines that we can then pull from, so that we do not have shortages for teachers. And then, you did mention also, David, about the mental and well-being of our staff, and that is also really important. So, as the executive director, you know, we as a department are really zeroing in on that aspect this year as a department, so that they can then in turn help the teachers that they are coaching and working closely with in the classrooms and also with the parents making sure that they are mentally well. So, that it's really it's going to take a team effort, and we're here working together as a team. And I couldn't be more proud.
David Fair: And a lot of the team that I heard you mention is involved with administration and at the highest levels. So, when we talk about creating teacher pipelines, what voice are teachers being given in these conversations that you are having and putting forth?
Eddie Manuszak: And that's a great question. So, teachers and staff are offering their input. And, you know, this is where offering the ability for feedback and working closely with other departments within other agencies and also creating informational campaigns, so that students in high school, you know, who may expressed an interest in being at the educational field, we want to make sure that they are afforded opportunities. So, really, you know, listening to and hearing student voice and then using that as a platform to elevate and amplify that voice is so important. And in the blue square of the Head Start symbol, the arrow is pointing up. And that's truly what this program, initially, when it was first developed in the 1960s, was wanting to do--to get families out of the cycle of low socioeconomic status and low poverty situations and really improve their quality of life and the quality of life and their children. And we're continuing to do that every day.
David Fair: Well, I'd really like to thank you for the time in the conversation today. I really appreciate it.
Eddie Manuszak: Thank you so much for the opportunity to make early childhood matter most and to really offer the community at large here at Washtenaw County the ability to know that we're here as a resource. You can find us on our website. You know, our programs are all listed there for everyone to see. And we hope that the community continues to see us as partners with them in their child's development.
David Fair: Well, that is Eddie Manuszak, and he is executive director of the Early Childhood Development Department in the Washtenaw Intermediate School District. He's been our guest on Washtenaw United.

As we come together to celebrate India's Independence Day, it's a time to reflect on the principles of unity, diversity, and the spirit of "Nation First, Always First." This day serves as a reminder not only of the sacrifices made by our forefathers but also of our duty to preserve our nation's health and well-being. In this blog, we'll delve into the concept of "Mera Desh, Meri Mitti" (My Nation, My Soil) and draw a parallel with the importance of liver health, emphasizing the slogan "One Liver, One Life."
Unity in Diversity – " "Mera Desh, Meri Mitti" encapsulates the unity in diversity that India embodies. Just as our nation is a tapestry of various cultures, languages, and traditions, it is vital to recognize that all our citizens share a common ground. Similarly, within the realm of health, every individual is united by the common need to care for their body. The liver, often referred to as the body's chemical factory, plays a crucial role in maintaining health and vitality, regardless of our diverse backgrounds.
One Liver, One Life:
While celebrating our freedom, let us also remember the freedom of living a healthy life. The liver, a vital organ responsible for detoxification, digestion, and metabolism, holds the key to our well-being. Just as our nation thrives when its citizens are healthy, our bodies thrive when our liver is well-maintained.
Here are some key points to consider when it comes to liver health:
1. Balanced Nutrition: Just as India thrives on its diverse culinary traditions, it's important to adopt a balanced diet that supports liver health. Include plenty of fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats in your diet.
2. Hydration: Just as our nation's rivers and water bodies sustain life, water is essential for the liver's proper function. Stay hydrated to aid digestion and detoxification processes.
3. Avoid Excess: Just as we strive for moderation in all aspects of life, excessive consumption of alcohol and fatty foods can strain the liver. Practice moderation to ensure the liver's longevity.
4. Regular Exercise: Like our nation's progress, maintaining an active lifestyle contributes to better health. Engage in regular physical activity to support metabolic processes and maintain a healthy weight.
5. Routine Check-ups: Just as our nation evolves with time, the liver's health can change too. Regular medical check-ups can help detect any liver-related issues early, allowing for timely intervention.
As we celebrate India's Independence Day and embrace the ideals of "Ek Desh, Ek Mitti," let us also remember the importance of our individual health and liver well-being. Just as we have only one nation, we also have only one liver. By prioritizing our liver health, we not only honor the spirit of unity within our nation but also ensure that each life can enjoy the freedom of optimal well-being. So, this Independence Day, let's take a step towards a healthier future, understanding that "One Liver, One Life" is a promise worth keeping.

Debug and Validation of High Performance Mixed Signal Designs
Written by
Wednesday, February 24, 2010
Modern embedded and computing systems have become progressively more powerful by incorporating high-speed buses, industry standard subsystems, and more integrated functionality in chips. They have also become more complex, more sensitive to signal quality, and more time consuming to troubleshoot. While standards exist for many technologies commonly used within high performance digital systems, a major test requirement is to ensure that all elements are synchronized and perform as a seamless, integrated whole. This application note discusses testing and tools that enable evaluation of not only a single element, but also an entire system.

Friday, the US Supreme Court helped right a 50-year wrong by declaring the horrible, paganistic travesties of the Roe and Casey decisions null and void. Nearly a million American babies have been slaughtered annually for almost a half-century. There is no way of calculating the evil done by abortion through lost lives, ruined lives, and a general destruction of respect for life and motherhood in our culture.
While much focus today is on the reactions to that decision, I think it is only fitting to pause for a second to give credit to the man who made this possible: Mitch McConnell.
Mitch McConnell is the guy who stood like Horatius at the bridge and kept a hyper-partisan Merrick Garland from getting a participation trophy in the fading days of the Obama-Biden administration. And by "fading," I mean the last ten months.
Lest you think I'm on the verge of opening a chapter of the Mitch McConnell Fan Club, I'm not. Let me explain my logic.
Chief Justice John Roberts voted with the majority to obliterate Roe and Casey; he didn't write the opinion. That he didn't write the opinion on a decision of this historic magnitude tells you all you need to know about where he stood on the issue. If you need more evidence, take a look at Roberts' concurring decision. If he didn't tell you it was a concurrence, you'd swear it was a dissent.
Roberts Concurrence in Dobbs vs. Jackson Women's Health Organization by streiff on Scribd
Over and over, Roberts states that he was against overturning Roe and Casey but was fine with moving the line for abortion to 15 weeks. Why? At this point, the logic gets murky. If Roberts truly believes, as he says, that the Roe trimester rubric is not defensible, then all a decision permitting a 15-week ban accomplished was more bad law and keeping abortion alive as a judicial football.
Had Garland been confirmed as a justice, Roberts would have written a 5-4 decision keeping abortion a constitutional right.
I give President Trump maximum credit for his picks and acknowledge that if we'd been cursed with a President Hillary! today would not have happened. But I don't think that even judges picked by President Trump could have pulled this off if McConnell had not held firm and refused to put a partisan leftist on the Supreme Court bench.

Pedro Alvarez's single gives Pittsburgh Pirates 5-4 walk-off win
In a game featuring two of the best young pitchers in the league, the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-4 in 10 innings, moving their record to 63-44 heading into Saturday's game. While both Gerrit Cole and Clayton Kershaw did not have their best stuff, the Pirates were able to eventually get to Kershaw and the bullpen to walk away with the win. Even with the victory the Pirates still sit six games out of first, with the St. Louis Cardinals occupying that spot with a 70-39 record.
Kershaw came into the game with a streak of 37 consecutive scoreless innings, but Gregory Polanco put an end to that right away, sending the first pitch he saw into the stands for his sixth home run of the year. The Dodgers took the lead in the third inning when Howie Kendrick hit a ground ball to Aramis Ramirez at third. The throw by Ramirez pulled Michael Morse off the base and two runs scored.
With the bases loaded in the fourth inning, Chris Stewart drew a walk from Kershaw to score Andrew McCutchen. Home plate umpire Mark Carlson called two pitches strikes that were well outside of the strike zone before he finally made the correct call on an outside pitch and gave Stewart his base.
The fifth inning saw the Dodgers momentarily take the lead off a single by Jimmy Rollins to left field that Starling Marte had trouble fielding which resulted in Joc Pederson coming around to score. In the Pittsburgh half of the inning, Kershaw plunked Marte, who was brought in by McCutchen's double. McCutchen moved to third on a wild pitch by Kershaw and scored on Ramirez's single.
Cole pitched six innings of good baseball ("good" being compared to what he usually does on the mound), limiting the Dodgers to just the three runs on four hits. He walked three additional hitters and struck out five. He was replaced by Joakim Soria, who recorded the first two outs of the seventh without incident. Carl Crawford got on due to catcher's interference and then stole second. A double to deep center field by Rollins scored Crawford and tied the game.
The Pirates had the bases loaded in the eighth inning and were not able to score the winning run. Tony Watson and Mark Melancon pitched in their usual eighth and ninth inning roles and did not surrender anything, moving the game into extra innings. Antonio Bastardo was tapped for the tenth inning and got out of it without giving up a run, but not without some excitement.
With Kendrick on second after hitting a double and issuing a walk to Scott Van Slyke, Bastardo uncorked a wild pitch to move both runners into scoring position. He ended the inning by striking out Yasmani Grandal, giving the Pirates the chance to walk off in the tenth inning.
Jung Ho Kang begin the tenth by taking a walk and Francisco Cervelli moved him to second with a single. Sean Rodriguez went up to the plate with the goal of moving the runners up, and did even better than that. He sent a hard bunt to the third base side of the infield, but due to poor communication by Jim Johnson and Alberto Callaspo, no one fielded the ball and all runners were safe. Pedro Alvarez came in as a pinch hitter and the Dodgers countered by bringing in left J.P. Howell. With the Dodgers employing the rare five player infield, Alvarez blistered a ball to right field, scoring Kang and giving the Pirates a win in the first game of the series.
What Stood Out
One of the main narratives coming into Friday's game was Kershaw's scoreless inning streak. Polanco quickly stopped any talk of the streak continuing when he led the game off with a home run. Kershaw is one of the absolute best pitchers in the game today and the Pirates were able to get to him. He is the type of pitcher that the Pirates will have to face in the postseason and they had a good game against him.

Polanco continues to slowly but surely bring his batting average up and provide some power occasionally. He has done a good job as of late in the lead off spot and could potentially hold on to it even with Josh Harrison scheduled to be back in a few weeks. Certainly Alvarez deserves to be mentioned too, coming through in a big way to end the game with a win. He is one of the most criticized starters on the team and hits like that could go a long way in changing the public's view of him.
What's Next
Francisco Liriano and Mat Latos will face off in the second game of the series tomorrow at 4:05pm. Liriano could not finish six innings his last time out, but the six starts before that all registered as quality starts. He'll take an ERA just under three into the contest and continues to show that he was one of the top bargains of the offseason. Latos limited the Angels to just one run over six innings in his Dodger debut on Sunday, but only recorded one strikeout.

Globally there are more honey bees than other types of bees and pollinating insects. They are the world's most important pollinator of food crops. It is estimated that one third of the food that we consume each day relies on pollination mainly by bees.
Without bees, the availability and diversity of fresh produce would decline substantially. Populations of bumblebees and other solitary bees have steeply declined in many places, largely because of insecticide and herbicide use, habitat loss, and global warming.
If the above is true, then why is the humble bee being pitted against the mosquito (the Aedes Aegypti to be exact) here on St. Vincent?
Yes, this tiny, black and white mosquito – a denizen of daylight hours – can be a killer as it carries a vicious disease – dengue fever. It is a nasty and dangerous disease that I have had twice. It can be a killer – especially amongst those most vulnerable in our population, the elderly and our youth. Our little island has lost children and others to this disease but has any of us ever given thought to the fact that we can prevent more of these tragedies?
The answer is NOT to fog with a seriously deadly chemical…Malathion. I do not understand when it is known that this chemical is a killer of not only mosquitoes but anything that flies, but worse yet…of people. In 2015, Malathion was classified by the World Health Organization's cancer research agency as "probably carcinogenic to humans." That, readers, is a very frightening sentence. I am sure we all agree that there is already too much cancer on little St. Vincent [and the Grenadines] yet we dare to encourage it by covering everything around us with this murderous chemical via fogging with it.
Please consider this.There are a myriad of sprays and creams that can be put on our skin to ward off all the mosquitoes and other biting insects. Yet we sit in silence waiting to see just what this fogging is doing to our health – especially that of the very young…our most precious gifts…the children, not to mention the pecking order of insects other than the mosquito. My property is void of most flying bugs and now I notice a diminished number of vibrant little birds who feed on them. My property has suddenly become very quiet – the little birds that twitter and chirp all day long are mostly gone!!
One evening I watched in horror as the "fog" began raising up so high that it was reaching the "bee caves" found in the hollows of the rock walls of the mountains that separate my home from Layou. Twenty four hours after the fogging a rainfall will carry the Malathion back down to earth and on to our crops; and into our rivers; and contaminate the very soil organic farmers like me plant food crops in. And onto the lawns and playing fields of the nation's children.
I repeat – wouldn't it be a better idea to take the thousands of dollars someone or some company is getting to buy and organize this fogging saga and purchase creams and sprays to be freely given out to all the population? It can be put on our skin and our children's skin to protect us from this specific mosquito!
I have been told "we have bees in Pembroke". Not on my one acre of land. And my lovely Laburnum trees are flowering and now I have no Bumble Bees to wake me at the crack of dawn with their vigorous shaking – an unusual sound quite specific to the Bumble Bee.
I now plead with whomever to spend your dollars more wisely. Purchase and distribute the creams and sprays that will protect the population rather than asking the island to inhale a dangerous chemical that does not even kill the mosquito eggs in a standing pool of water unless it is directly in the sight of the fogger. Allow us to breathe clean air INSIDE our homes and please…help save whatever bees are left in the wild. We farmers need them to help feed YOU with healthy fruits and vegetables.
