Digital War: Campaign II
Part One: First Contact
[Chapter IV]
By T. D. Larson
Fog, much to the surprise of both Michael and Isaac, was not as otherworldly as television made it seem. There were no shadows moving about them as they had expected, and no dark looming shapes lingered just at the edge of their visions. Only a gray, heavy curtain of damp hung over them as they entered the Digital World. A few moments later, as they edged their way forward into this new frontier, the fog lifted, and all three of them stood for a moment blinking in the unexpected sunlight.
For the most part, at least to the two newcomers, it looked very much like Earth. A pale blue sky greeted them with a white sun and wispy vapors looping around it like halos. Ahead of them, all was sand and rocks, far as the horizon, save for a cluster of lighter material, shimmering brightly in the heat-distorted air.
The two of them might have taken it for a mirage, had Cotramon not told them they would find hospitality there. "March!" he had ordered, advising them to shed their rain gear. This they did, now beginning to feel the heat of a desert sun pounding them. Then they began plodding through the course sand.
It was not at all as Isaac had expected. The idea of another world filled with creatures like Michael and Cotramon had conjured images of unending fields of odd plants, set about in haphazardly under a strange sky. Odd sights framing even more peculiar creatures lingered in his mind, even as they grew closer to that collection of bright shapes, which he now took to be a city. In all, Isaac found it very anticlimactic for such a journey.
"That's merely an outpost," Cotramon explained, as they drew near. But even he had to admit that the outpost had grown to be much more than that. In the old days, after the war and before the Emperor had ascended to the throne, it had been only a scientific research station, monitoring the Human World for signs of intelligence.
Many such sights were scattered across the borders of the Digital World. All of them were stationed at weak points between the worlds, like weigh-stations for travelers. Not that traveling was even allowed—except for specific purposes such as his. And each point corresponded to a different point in the Human World. It had taken years to evaluate where each gate lead, and then to systematically whittle down the options of where the hybrid—Michael, Cotramon corrected himself—would be found. "We study you humans from there. It's an observation post," he said.
Michael found it difficult to believe, with a wall that large and a gate that huge. It was, indeed, a city by any terrestrial standards. The walls loomed high, fifty feet or more, from the desert sands below, and an equally massive gate barred entry. He wondered briefly why it had to be so large, and then it opened, at the behest of their Digimon guide.
The reason, and here he found he could not contain his startled amazement, was because of the sheer size that Digimon could reach. Two large dinosaur-like beasts, pushing at enormous handles situated on the inside of each door, pressed outward with all their might. The orange and blue striped monsters easily rose to the height of two fully grown men, and their girth was equal to a large freight shipment. Each of them, and their great horned helmets, greeted Cotramon and the others with a loud growling welcome as soon as the portal was open.
Isaac tried to reply to the best of his ability in the same roaring language as the giants. To his chagrin, he only managed to produce a gurgling, weak answer that elicited a deep rumbling laughter from them. So humans could not speak "growlish." So he tried again in English, hoping to at least begin on peaceable terms with them. "I'm sorry I can't speak your language," he said to them, raising his voice. "But, if that was a welcome,"—and, even though they growled, their tone was inviting enough to be taken as such—"thank you."
One of them peered down with great brown eyes and dropped his jaw, much like Cotramon did when he smiled. "It is fine, small one," it said in strangely accented English. "We study the human languages here as well, should we ever come into contact with your people. We are Greymon."
Both of them were Greymon? He had stopped now, in the midst of a train of thought. "Then how do you distinguish between you? When someone calls 'Greymon, come here!' how do you know which of you he means?" The two hulking figures looked at each other and then back down to Isaac. "Don't you have names," he asked.
One of them nodded. "Our names are in our own tongue, though, unpronounceable by you, apparently." He told him his name, a small sequence of grunting noises with various articulations. It seemed to Isaac the auditory equivalent to a string uncut gems, almost musical in quality. Then the monster told him his cohort's name. That was a two-set noise, like lulling sound followed by a crack of thunder.
He told them as such. "You are very perceptive, small one," the thunderous one said. "Our names are given at birth by parents for a particular quality we display, or as a blessing of things to come. I was born in the mountains after a fierce windstorm. My brother," he indicated the other Greymon, "was born, and our father's father presented the family with a hand-cut gem. So he was named."
And Cotramon, then, was not his real name. So what was it? That got him set to thinking about his companions, and he realized with abrupt clarity that they had left him behind. Hastily he wished the two Digimon a good day and ran off, catching up with them just as they reached a central square, filled with even more Digimon milling about—some of them larger than even the two Greymon at the gates.
The Enemy looked over a detailed map of Anshar and its capital city. He knew it was outdated, just as his master did. Millenniumon stood by silently, apprehensively awaiting any word his master gave. Silence, though he had appreciated it during the war, had begun to dig into him in a way that bode very badly. It was when his master sat in silent contemplation that he was most prone to outbursts.
Perhaps "outburst" was the wrong word. They had been locked away on this accursed plane for years, and patience was wearing thin. His master had a desire so deep-set within him to rule and conquer, it had become an obsession. And it had happened far before they had crossed paths. But the years of solitude since the war had given him time to plot.
The seal holding them there—he, his master, and Apocalymon, who led the military arm of his master's triumvirate—had begun to fail. The fires from Musplshiem had seeped in and made the dark, storm-churned climate warm. And even now, as the seal continued to crumble, his master began rebuilding his army.
Those foolish Digimon that had locked him away—they called themselves the Sovereignty—had given the Enemy an entire world and its resources to work with. The arrogance of them, who thought they could stay his power indefinitely, had also sealed his vast, soulless armies away with them. Now he had built his army to ten times what it was during the war. And Millenniumon, though not entirely sure of the prospect, had helped him.
How many Digimon had he killed? At first it had been for the need to experiment, as many of the initial tests he had run were on volunteers who thought his master was, indeed, worthy of recognition. Soon, though, the coup had succeeded, and once established, the Enemy had redefined himself. And the volunteers soon turned into conscripted soldiers.
And from there, because of him, they became mindless shells of their former selves. He could no longer remember the promises that the Enemy had made him, only that for the longest time, he could think of no better reason than the pursuit of his passion. He had even been given the whole of Ea and its teaming underwater cities, to play with. He was a Lord unto himself, and over everything in the water and on the land.
He shifted slightly, making no noise. For his size and bulk, and for the machinery that plagued his body, it was a feat not to be taken lightly. In his service to the Enemy, he had sacrificed much of his body. Now he survived on internal mechanisms and prosthetics that he had engineered hastily as his internal organs shut down.
Because of this, he was not as strong, nor as quick as his counterpart, the End of All Worlds. Apocalymon was just what his namesake evoked: a terror, able to snatch up enemies far and abroad with his long, winding limbs, without having to move a single pace. He had been known to level cities and villages via bombardment. For him, it was the thrill of destruction that drove him onward. And his form, suitably corrupted by their master's influence, was an instrument to that end.
Millenniumon's strength was in his mind, and what he could produce. Not a warrior, but a thinker, he had fashioned many of his master's ideas into reality. That was what brought them to their current predicament. One such idea, he had thought it destroyed, had yet survived, and had been studied by the Digimon above them in the higher planes.
"What do you suppose such a union of bloodlines will produce," the Enemy queried him, turning his dark gaze ominously upon him. Millenniumon almost shuddered. His master's calm voice was not to be trusted. He was a Digimon of immense power, unmatched anywhere in the Digital World. And though he was cruel, even to such as Millenniumon, he was also cunning and efficient. And he did not take failure lightly.
He must choose his words carefully, as he already treaded upon thin ice. Even now, and he continued the analogy in his mind, he could hear the tinkling, cracking of his path before it would give way and shatter. "Pyromon had a power, that, in time, might have rivaled yours," he said, deciding truth was the best course of action. "And because he is a product of the Clone-Works, he is tied to your blood as well. Your son, though he may appear weak, has the potential to destroy us all if left to his own devices."
The Enemy turned back to his study of Anshar before replying. "I concur. I have already sent an agent to assess the situation." Then he remained in silence for several more minutes, with only the shuffling of folded maps breaking the menacing silence that now pervaded the chamber. Then, with a start of surprise, Millenniumon heard the words for his dismissal.
Inwardly, he sighed in relief.
Michael stood motionless as the black-clad form introduced himself. He was smaller than many of the other Digimon that passed them by, taking scant notice of the trio. But he still rose to a height head and shoulders above the hybrid. He, like many of the Digimon, who he had seen, was reptilian in nature, and vaguely draconic as well, with scales as black as pitch and black armor gleaming in the midday sun.
He introduced himself first in the native tongue, a curt, meaty sounding grunt by Isaac's ear. Then he introduced himself again in gruff English: "I am," and he pronounced his name again. "His majesty, the Emperor Boreamon, bids you welcome." He bowed to them, his horned helmet nearly touching the ground at their feet.
"They sent you?" Cotramon asked, incredulously. He hardly believed that the affair was worthy of a personal escort—let alone that their escort might be one of the Emperor's own guard. He raised himself back up, the seal on his chest armor glimmering neatly. He was indeed a Guard. "Who's idea was this?"
The figure, whom Isaac and Michael were later able to identify as a Black WarGreymon, answered, "Baihumon requested a special detail for you on behalf of the Sovereignty." He grinned under his helmet, startling Cotramon by breaking the decorum the Imperial Guard was known for. "Whether it is to protect them," and he pointed to the others, "or to protect us, I do not know. In any case, I will be your escort while you are here."
Cotramon nodded at the unorthodox Digimon as he turned to inspect Michael and the human. He examined Isaac carefully. "What is your name, small one? Or shall I make one up for you?"
"Isaac Marx," he replied, not the least intimidated. It had been the second time a Digimon had called him "Small One." He held out his hand to the burly Digimon in the age-old human gesture. The Black WarGreymon took it thoughtfully, and gave it one good shake, rattling Isaac's comparatively frail form. "What shall I call you then?"
His yellow eyes brightened and he smiled widely, showing disconcertingly long fangs. "Ah! You are perceptive!" he laughed, his voice a deep rumble. He stood to his full height again, towering over the three of them. "My native tongue translates my name to 'Tank' in yours," he said. Isaac nodded.
"That's an appropriate name if ever I heard one," Michael chimed. This Tank was easily the largest creature he had seen—even the two sentries he had passed on the way in seemed small in comparison. This guy had presence! "I'm Michael," he introduced himself. "Michael Delancy."
"Ah, yes!" said the Digimon. "I have heard of you, the hybrid and son of the Enemy…" Michael blinked, startled. He thought he had caught a glimmer of something in those yellow eyes—something he did not like, nor could he place his finger on just what it was. In the next moment, it was gone, replaced by strangely youthful mirth. "You have the form a recognizable hero in our world. He saved many lives in the war, not least among them your partner's."
His partner? The Black WarGreymon had nodded, ever so slightly, to Cotramon. He had noticed as well and humphed at the reference. Obviously Michael had missed something there—an inference of some deeper connection. He, unlike his fully-human companion, was not nearly as insightful. But still, the green Digimon was beginning to grow on him.
Cotramon had at least been sympathetic—at least after he had calmed down properly. The Digimon made sure during their trek to the Digital Gate that he knew some of the history. That, and what he had gathered from the snippets of conversation he had overheard, the Digimon was in earnest trying rectify a profoundly difficult situation. It, among other things, included his sincere apology to Michael as well.
"Yes, then," Cotramon said suddenly, cutting off Tank's rabbit-trail discussion with Isaac on the various naming customs of both worlds. "We were to be met with transportation," he said, looking around. He saw no Digimon on the airfield and wondered if they had been forgotten, and then dismissed the thought.
He pointed to it. There, coming into land on a small airstrip was a large silvery shape that had the distinct look of an aircraft. On closer inspection, however, they saw it was actually a creature, probably another of the incredibly varied Digimon, and that the metallic gleam was a sort of harness attached to its underside for passengers. It was at least the size of a small airliner.
"Indeed," Tank said emphatically, cutting short their amazement. "The Sovereignty will be expecting you when you arrive. They want you debriefed as soon as possible," he said to Cotramon. Then, turning to the others, he spoke casually. "They're very interested in you two as well, but after a long journey such as this, they thought it better to give you a chance to rest. It's only a few hours by air."
The flying Digimon came to rest its four legs, and was attended to by a ground crew offering it food and drink. He would be ready to fly again shortly, one of the ground crew explained to them. Digimon of this nature often flew passengers from city to city and plane to plane using harnesses or other such devices.
"I suppose it's cheaper than jet fuel," Isaac quipped. He must have been a charter, though, as there were no passengers disembarking. He must also have been on a tight schedule, as he scarfed down the platter that was brought him, and took a long drought in an appropriately sized trough.
Moment by moment, this world was getting more and more strange. He had expected as much. But it was a different sort of strange, Isaac supposed. Instead of monsters and bugbears, he found monsters that were perfectly suited to their surroundings. It made them appear normal—or as normal as he could grasp in an alien world. The hulking figures of Greymon and others were not out of place at all.
Mentally he chided himself. Of course they were normal. This was their world. His mental image had been of creatures that size trying not to step on houses or cars, taking mincing, short steps on narrow streets. But the broad avenues he observed now, and the immense architecture of their dwellings—the doors alone would suffice to admit a school bus—were nothing like the cities of Earth. He almost laughed as he explained his revelation to Michael, who set to wonder where he would fit in.
He was one of those creatures, walking down a wide thoroughfare, but small as a human. Then again, Cotramon was much the same size, as were a great many of the Digimon that went by. He had the sense, though, that a large portion of them would end up at least the size of their escort, Tank.
He would resolve to ask Cotramon about that later. He had he inexplicable sense that there was far more to Digimon than just what he saw. It was some sort of expectation, deep set inside him, that he needed to change somehow. He had just become aware of it, meeting the Black WarGreymon and the two sentries at the gate.
But it frightened him as well. He had done enough changing for one lifetime. Again he found himself looking down at his hands—symbols of the spectacular transformation he had gone through. Was there more to come? In one sense, he hoped not. The last time had been agonizingly painful, an experience unmatched in his life.
Then again, when he thought about the prospect of elevating himself to the next level, a thrill of excitement coursed through him. He felt the nervousness of someone about to take a leap of faith, where the risk, though great, was nothing compared to the reward. He needed only step out of his preconceived boundaries and remember that he was not, in fact, human.
Someone shook him back to his senses. It was Cotramon, who rapped him on the head once. "It's time to go," the Digimon said, gesturing to their transportation. Then, noticing the doubtful, and anxious expression on Michael's muzzle, leaned in close. "If you want to talk, I'm here. I'm not an expert on what's happened to you, but I can listen."
"That…" he sighed heavily, "would be great."

John Hilary, Executive Director of War on Want and author of The Poverty of Capitalism (Pluto, 2013), has been interviewed by Claire Provost in the Guardian today. In the article he explains the sharp critique of NGOs he presents in his new book.
We've reproduced some of it below. You can read the whole thing on the Guardian website, here.
Claire Provost
John Hilary is not afraid of the big questions. As the executive director of War on Want, widely considered one of Britain's most radical charities, he often speaks out on issues – from what he calls apartheid Palestine to the nature of global capitalism – that few other UK NGOs will touch. His new book, The Poverty of Capitalism, carries in its title conscious references to works by Karl Marx (The Poverty of Philosophy) and socialist historian EP Thompson (The Poverty of Theory).
Published last month, the book tracks what Hilary condemns as the failures of corporate globalisation and the rise of popular resistance movements worldwide. In what could seem a deliberate attempt to set himself even further apart from other NGO bosses, it also presents a sharp critique of mainstream British charities, which Hilary condemns for choosing to cosy up to corporations and governments, rather than align with grassroots movements such as La Via Campesina, the international federation of peasants' groups.
"I think this is a particularly British problem," says Hilary, sitting in the basement of the refurbished London warehouse that serves as War on Want's head office. UK NGOs have become very strong and very powerful, but the sector, he says, is today overly professionalised and too focused on technical, incremental change. It has "lost its political analysis, its transformative ambition, and any radical soul", Hilary adds.
Instead of challenging the UK government, which Hilary characterises as increasingly regressive and reductive in its approach to global development, charities are giving it "such an easy ride" and appear to have been "seduced by power".
It was not always like this, he says, pointing to the 1980s when mainstream UK NGOs joined global movements such as those against apartheid in South Africa. At that time, Oxfam and Christian Aid were, along with War on Want, challenged by the Charity Commission for having positioned themselves politically in what Hilary describes as active solidarity with groups on the ground. "Liberation struggles were once meat and drink to the international NGO community," he adds.
Today, big NGOs are increasingly taking a seat at the table alongside government and business. Development-speak is littered with references to partnerships and multi-stakeholder initiatives. Hilary refuses to accept this as evidence of progress and argues instead that even the most positive of such initiatives eventually give sway to the demands of the most powerful.

Meet Guillaume
This little boy was found sitting on a busy road in Lawnton. The caller said he had been "bumped" by a car and so our rescuers took him to the wildlife hospital. After a full assessment he was taken to a carer where he will stay until he is ready to go to pre-release.
Guillaume (pronounced Ki-ohm and it's French for William) is a quiet lovely little boy. But he will be the first to get to the fresh leaf in the afternoon. Recently he tried his voice….. as boys do. But it didn't even sound like a bellow…. he needs to grow a bit more to make any impact with the girls 🙂
Guillaume did very well in care. He took his bottles, and just gained weight and more weight, and more, and more…..
In April 2016 he was released back into the wild, a bit further away from the busy road he was found on. By law they need to be released within 5 kms of where they are found, but with the developments and clearing of all the trees in the suburban areas, this is going to be harder and harder. Luckily for Guillaume there is still some nice bushland within that range, so we now hope he will stay there and finds his way.

These 21 Black Series tickets look interesting. The $5 one seems to be the best at least odds wise compared to other tickets of that dollar amount.
I'll definitely give these a try in a few weeks.
I was excited for the new $20 ticket that came out today, and i say 'was' because its crap. Im down about $220 today thanks to that ticket, it was just a very bad day. I played about 12 of those new tickets and only got 2 winners one for $30 and a $50, that was it . Then got a couple lucky loot and a couple $30 tickets, and only got a $30 winner . Well i wont be playing at all for a few days, worst day in a while. Falcon out.
i was looking forward to playing them because the odds of getting 500 was similar to the 100x time money tickets (around 1 : 150) and it seemed good to me . . but i couldn't find any at the places i went so didn't get a chance to but thanks for the heads up, hope you have some better luck next time !
Thats about the only good prize with decent odds that you could get with that ticket. It has horrible odds for $100 been a $20 ticket, and they threw a $250 prize with worst odds than a $10 tcket, no 1k prize it goes all the way to 5k with worst chances, it sucks and hard to scratch, I wont be playing this ticket much if not at all after today.
got one today #12 . .won $40 bucks on it . . also got the $5 black series #37 and #38, #37 was a ticket and #38 hit the 20X symbol with a $1 under it
Maximum Money Madness is still the $20 ticket I'll go to. I'll definitely try the new $20 Black series ticket once or twice, and see how I do. The $5 one seems to be the one to try.
I'll be going to the store later, so maybe I'll find them. Not really in the mood to try the $20 yet though.
Played 2 of the $5 21 Black Series tickets (#023 & #022).
Got 1 winner on #023, but it was an odd winner. Never seen this prize on any ticket before. I like how these tickets look at least.
I went out last night just to play some of the new tickets. I can't say I like them but I at least have given them a chance. However I'm still on the $10 Million $$ Match. That ones going to be my main play for a whole, at least until I hit something pretty tolerable. Lol it seems every one else is hitting on them but me. But here's what was played and how I done.
5 $1 Black Series
067- lost
068- lost
069- won $2
070- lost
071- won a ticket
3 $5 Black Series
052- lost
053- won $15
054- lost
2 $20 Black Series
004- lost
005- won $50
so I spent a total of 60 dollars and wound up getting $68 back. Now I only have to put $2 to play my game.
I was was gonna also play the $2 one but they didn't have them, I'll try some of them when I can find them.
I have played the $10 Million $$ Match like 5 or 6 times now, and I haven't hit anything above $15. I rather play it than the Cash King or Maximum Fortune though.
Look what I've got to do tonight!!!!
Good luck! I'm too scared to buy books.
Here's the results from my first book of these:
000- lost
001- lost
002- lost
004- $20

In a special discussion on the Indo-US nuclear deal in the Lok Sabha today, the House is likely to debate on the N-deal.
The government is all set to defend the provisions of the deal in the debate. Earlier, BJP and CPM asked for assurances on three issues-the annual reporting clause, fuel supplies assurances and India's right to conduct nuclear tests.
The House will, however, abstain from voting on the issue. Meanwhile, US President George W Bush, is all set to sign the new Bill into law today.

Tissue culture technicians use various techniques to asexually reproduce live tissue, under laboratory conditions, producing specimens that are genetically identical to, or different from, the parent tissue. The process of producing genetically identical specimens is commonly known as cloning. Tissue culture is used for a wide variety of commercially important agricultural and horticultural plants, in the propagation of rare and endangered plant species, and in the growth of tissues or cells used in health and medical research and treatments.

Crime Beat: 10 Terrible Facts About Violence Against Women
Happy International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women!
Sorry to spoil your Thanksgiving preparations, but November 25 is indeed the day. You'll find hardly a word in the U.S. press about this worldwide observance that gets play elsewhere, even by U.S. government outlets like Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty. Nevertheless, it's the 10th anniversary of this campaign. (The absence of press reports here is not necessarily a sign that Americans don't care about violence toward women: This is also the 10th anniversary of the rescue of Elian Gonzalez — see this timeline of the Elian saga — and nobody's writing about that either.)
Click on the video above for a controversial (and banned) Australian public-service announcement that stars celebrity ex-con Mark "Chopper" Read.
Meanwhile, here are 10 clusters of terrible facts about violence toward women, based on stats and stories compiled from the U.N., the U.S. Department of Justice, and other sources:

In the United States, one-third of women murdered each year are killed by intimate partners.
In South Africa, a woman is killed every six hours by an intimate partner.
In India, 22 women were killed each day in dowry-related murders in 2007.
As many as 140 million girls and women in the world have experienced female genital mutilation/cutting, with more than 3 million girls in Africa annually at risk of the practice.
The rape rate in the U.S. (victims 12 and older, including men) generally declined until about 2004 but is now rising.
In the U.S., women ages 20-24 are at the greatest risk of nonfatal domestic violence, and women age 24 and under suffer from the highest rates of rape.
In the U.S. in 2008, women were more likely than men to be victimized by someone they knew. Seventy percent of all violent crimes against women were committed by a known offender (an intimate, family member or friend/acquaintance), compared to 49 percent of violence against men.
Approximately 250,000 to 500,000 women and girls were raped in the 1994 Rwandan genocide.
In the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo — scene of the bloodiest conflict since World War II — at least 200,000 cases of sexual violence, mostly involving women and girls, have been documented since 1996, though the actual numbers are considered to be much higher. In Liberia, "the new war is rape," and in Iraq, women are beaten by relatives after they're captured on cellphone images talking to men. In the Congo, thousands of women are raped directly as a result of battles over the mineral-rich country's reserves of coltan, a crucial ingredient in the manufacture of cellphones. See my May 2008 story about cell-phone-related violence in the Congo and Iraq.
Domestic violence costs about $6 billion a year in the U.S. in direct medical, dental, and social expenses, prevention costs, and indirect productivity losses. In Israel, the government pays a "violence allowance" of about $890 to children orphaned by domestic-violence murders of their parents.

England A began their tour of India with a crushing eight-wicket defeat at the hands of the Karnataka State Cricket Association in Bangalore today.
The tourists were bowled out for 116 in 35.1 overs of their one-day warm-up match.
Only Warwickshire all-rounder Graham Wagg provided notable resistance, coming in at number eight and hitting three fours and three sixes in an innings of 45 before he was last out.
Kent's Test hopeful Ed Smith made 21, and Nottinghamshire all-rounder Kevin Pietersen 17 as only five England batsmen reached double figures.
England, captained by Sussex wicketkeeper-batsman Matthew Prior, stood little chance of defending a small total without fast bowler Simon Jones, who was missing with a sore knee.
The tourists dismissed both Karnataka openers with only 36 on the board, Lancashire's improving pace bowler Sajid Mahmood taking both wickets.
But an unbroken stand of 84 for the third wicket between Mithun Beerala (47no) and Vijay Bharadwaj (34no) saw the hosts to a comprehensive win with more than half their overs to spare.
Young Worcestershire off-spinner Shaftab Khalid suffered most, conceding 41 runs in just 5.3 overs.

Originally published at Stop The Drug War
They don't even want to think about pot legalization in Montana, Rhode Island's governor would rather think about it next year than act on it this year, two GOP governors sign CBD cannabis oil bills, Latin American drug prisoners are on the increase, the UNODC sends an advisor to the Philippines, and more.
[image:1 align:right caption:true]Marijuana Policy
Florida Decriminalization Bill Gets Hearing, Gets Killed. The state Senate Judiciary Committee held a hearing on a marijuana decriminalization bill Monday, then voted to "temporarily postpone" the bill, effectively killing it for the year. The bill, which would have made small-time pot possession a civil infraction, was Senate Bill 1682.
Montana Bill to Study Legalization Dies in House. A bill that would have created an interim legislative committee to study marijuana legalization died Monday in the House. House Joint Resolution 35 failed on a vote of 45-55. Nine Republicans voted to approve the bill, but five Democrats voted against it.
Rhode Island Governor Wants to Study Legalization, Not Pass it This Year. The administration of Gov. Gina Raimundo (D) has sent a letter to the House Judiciary Committee saying it has "concerns" with legalization bills under consideration and would instead support creating a commission to study the issue. "The Governor's primary concerns are safety and proper regulation, and she will give strong consideration to legalization legislation that adequately addresses these concerns, whether a bill reaches her desk this year or in the future," she said, leaving the door just slightly open for this year.
Medical Marijuana
Oklahoma Governor Signs CBD Cannabis Oil Bill. Gov. Mary Fallin (R) on Monday signed into law House Bill 1559, which exempts CBD cannabis oil products from the state's definition of marijuana if they are approved by the federal Food and Drug Administration. No such medicines have been approved by the FDA. The move is the latest baby step toward actually approving the use of CBD cannabis oil; last year, Fallin signed a bill that allowed clinical trials by researchers to take place.
Wisconsin Governor Signs CBD Cannabis Oil Bill. Gov. Scott Walker (R) on Monday signed into law Senate Bill 10, which would make it easier to acquire CBD cannabis oil. Two years ago, Walker signed a bill to allow the use of CBD in extremely limited cases, but the limits it contains are so restrictive that families and patients haven't been able to actually use CBD. This bill will ease those limits, allowing patients to possess CBD for any medical condition with an annual physician's approval.
US Sentencing Commission Hearing Today on Ecstasy, New Psychoactives. The US Sentencing Commission will take up reconsideration of the federal sentencing guidelines for ecstasy (MDMA) and a handful of new psychoactive substances. This is the first step in a two-year review process that could result in sentencing reductions for people caught with those drugs. One factor driving the Sentencing Commission to take up the issue is two major federal court cases where judges ruled that they did not have to follow the current MDMA sentencing guidelines, since they were so out of touch with science and public health.
Canada Pot Legalization Won't Include Pardons, Amnesty, Liberals Say. The Trudeau government is not considering a blanket pardon for people who have criminal records for marijuana possession as part of its marijuana legalization plan, Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale said Monday. "That's not an item that's on the agenda at the moment," he said. The government is facing pressure both from people who want to move immediately to some sort of decriminalization and from people who want some sort of pardon scheme, but the Liberals are holding firm. "It is important to note that as the bill moves through the legislative process, existing laws prohibiting possession and use of cannabis remain in place, and they need to be respected," Goodale said. "This must be an orderly transition. It is not a free-for-all."
Study Reveals a Disproportionate Increase in Number of People Jailed for Low-Level Drug Offenses in Latin America. The Research Consortium on Drugs and the Law (CEDD), a network of drug policy experts from 10 countries in the Americas, has published a new report which reveals that despite the debate surrounding drug policy reform, the rate of incarceration for low-level, non-violent drug offenses continues to increase across Latin America. The CEDD Report, Irrational Punishment: Drug Laws and Incarceration in the Americas, includes research on ten countries: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, the United States, Mexico, Peru and Uruguay. In all of the Latin American countries studied, with the exception of Bolivia, the population imprisoned for drug offenses increased at a rate of 8 to 33 times faster than that of the general prison population over the last 15 years, with some variation depending on the country. In Brazil, while the prison population increased 55% between 2006 and 2014, the population incarcerated for drug offenses rose by 267%, a rate about five times greater. In Colombia, between 2000 and 2015, the prison population rose by 141%, but the population incarcerated for drug offenses increased by 289%.
. The UNODC announced Monday that it will soon send a drug policy advisor to the Philippines to work with the government there on alternatives to its bloody-handed crackdown on drug users. The UNODC adviser will press both the Dangerous Drugs Board and the Department of Health to adopt treatment-based approaches to combat substance abuse in the country. Those programs are likely to take the form of community-based models that will more effectively encourage users to minimize their substance dependencies. The advisor is expected to arrive in June and serve for two years.

Window managers take this choice to extremes, from the mini malist TWM to the highly complex En lightenment, a window manager that decorates its windows with bells, whis tles, and even animations [1]. Metacity, the window manager for the Gnome desktop, is designed for simplic ity and does not confuse users with an overabundance of options. To achieve this aim, Metacity concentrates on the window manager's core business: draw ing window decorations, organizing win dows, and moving windows. Gnome ap plets step in to handle additional func tions such as virtual desktops.

Great introduction to Complete Streets in the Globe today:
There's a new kind of road coming to Toronto. A road that uses the space differently, recognizing that it has to do more than just move cars. One that is "beautiful and vibrant" and puts safety first – a crucial move in a city struggling with a rising tide of pedestrian deaths.
They're called "complete streets," and while elements of their planning philosophy have already shown up in Toronto, they have never been formalized into an urban design goal. Next week, city staffers plan to pick a handful of streets to redesign under the new guidelines as pilot projects that they hope will be the start of a decades-long remaking of the city.

Mongolia's Prime Minister Sanj Bayar has tendered his resignation due to poor health, the secretary of the ruling Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party told Reuters on Monday.
Bayar was appointed prime minister late in 2007.
Bayar has been suffering liver problems and was admitted to hospital last week in Ulan Bator, China's Xinhua news agency reported.
He had a strong hand in moving forward negotiations on giant projects, including the investment agreement for the Oyu Tolgoi copper-gold deposit that was signed this month and the Tavan Tolgoi coking coal deposit, which will drive future revenues for the land-locked country.

Can't we all just get along?
Wow! The anti-humor sentiment and debate has produced much more energy than I thought it ever would when I first read its proposition.
I have been monitoring the list for a couple of months now and have the following to say:
The comments of a couple of days ago regarding the level of professional participation on this list, and in general, were in my opinion right on the money. I find both personal time and professional fellowship to be invaluable and at best a difficult balance.
Some of us want to define how this forum functions for all who are served by it.
Seems to me, this would only result in reduced professional participation. A significant disservice to the profession and all who participate in this forum.
I suggest we let this forum define itself. The purposes of which are engineering discourse is an obvious and almost forgone conclusion.
I think we need to to remind ourselves that however different this forum serves us, it serves us all equally.
To police the exchange of ideas, yes this includes humor, is self defeating. After all we are all professionals, perhaps different but I believe equal.
Of course this is just my opinion, I could be wrong.

I didn't feel in love.
As confused as I was about my feelings, I distinctly remember how strange it was to end our phone calls with just "Good night" and not "Good night, I love you."
grace-filled conversations among kindred spirits
As confused as I was about my feelings, I distinctly remember how strange it was to end our phone calls with just "Good night" and not "Good night, I love you."
Months passed. A year. "Just friends" morphed into "best friends." And one night, while we were discussing life dreams, I made a statement–one I meant with all my heart. I said something to the effect of, "Yeah, I don't see it happening. It's simple. …
On that work day at the camp, he was looking me over in a wistful, I'll-never-get-her sort of way, and I was looking him over in a wistful, he'll-never-be-interested-in-me sort of way. Mr. Bill and his wife were looking at us both and plotting ways to get us together.
If I may be so bold as to offer a word of advice to single women everywhere: beware of creating an imaginary life around an imaginary man so that when a real man comes along you can't see him for the imaginary life you've created. I almost missed him and I wouldn't want that to happen to you.
In the providence of God, I was friends with a precious co-worker who had lost her husband several years ago to cancer at an early age like Josh. She had given me many insights into what life was like for someone in that situation and how she had neede …
I was resigned that because of my standards, and a desire for a very simple and back-to-basics lifestyle, my chances of finding a man with the same desires were highly unlikely and maybe impossible!
Avoid cold water. Don't use your prospective husband as a test dummy. Go on as many adventures as you can. And most of all: commit your way to God and trust Him. He can and will direct you, even if it's up the mountain, into the lake, or over that next hill.
We believe there is no room for self-righteousness or for self-condemnation in hearts that have been given life by His transforming love. Read more...
