Canada's adversarial legal system features two parties in contest with one another. One way of viewing this system is as a game bound by a series of rules. These rules regulate not only individual players such as the Judge or the Crown, but society more broadly. As with all games, there are those who follow the rules and those who break them. We would like to take this opportunity to invite interdisciplinary proposals to analyze and discuss the many auspices of law and its game-like nature. How can the metaphor of a game aid us in thinking outside the box on legal, political, and social problems? How does understanding individuals as pieces in a larger game impact our understanding of governing subjects, their subjective experiences, and the affects of the law more broadly? What parallels can be drawn between seeing law as a game and aspects of criminalization and justice?
To facilitate this interdisciplinary exchange we encourage participants from a wide variety of disciplinary backgrounds to play a round with us by presenting on the similarities between games and law and the players involved in them. Paper topics may include, but are not limited to:
- Games as allegory (Monopoly, Clue, Papers Please, Her Story, etc.)
- Socio-legal analysis of video, board, or any other medium of games
- Making and breaking rules
- Playing with representations of crime, criminals, and justice
- Advocacy, solidarity, playmates, and queer theory
- Unboxing international law
- Policing and the enforcement of rules
- Games of governance and regulation
- Ludonarative dissonance and affect in games of law

CORONA, Calif., (July 2, 2007) -- In what he's saying is his last Outdoor National motocross race of his career, Monster Energy-backed Ricky Carmichael (Makita/Suzuki) made it five overall wins in a row in five events on the AMA Toyota Motocross Championship tour, this past Sunday coming from behind to top fellow Monster Energy-backed racer James Stewart in front of the largest crowd to date this year at the Nationals' jewel event -- the 2007 Monster Energy Kawasaki RedBud National, presented by Concept Haulers.
This is my favorite track and the fans here are the best, said a pumped-up Carmichael when he was introduced for his farewell parade lap at the race. Moments later Carmichael hopped behind the wheel of the famous Monster Energy/Pflueger Racing Baja Trophy Truck and burnt another hot lap around the RedBud facility – roosting his way through the serpentine track as the crowd went bananas again!
When the racing got started Carmichael found himself chasing a guy who broke all of his amateur records -- Monster Energy/Kawasaki-backed James Stewart -- and the guy who broke both of their amateur records, KTM's Mike Alessi. The two Monster riders made short work of the Red Bull-backed Alessi, then opened up a near minute lead over Alessi by the end of the race. During that time Carmichael and Stewart kept the near 30,000 fans on their feet as the track announcers nearly went hoarse calling the incredible action.
"It's Stewart, with Carmichael showing him a wheel!, bellowed track announcer Tim Cotter over the southwestern Michigan countryside. "They're going back and forth, standing toe-to-toe like a couple prize fighters!
With Stewart right on his front wheel in the corners late in the race, a minor slide out by Carmichael would cost him -- handing Stewart the first moto. In the second moto the tables were turned and Carmichael, who was pressuring Stewart hard again after racing from behind to catch him, took advantage of a Stewart miscue and captured the 2-1 moto win, the 149th combined motocross/supercross win of his career. Carmichael's fifth consecutive win of the season also gives him a 16-point lead over Stewart (241-225).
In addition, Carmichael has now won two of three rounds of the 2007 Monster Energy/Kawasaki Triple Crown of Motocross.
"I want to again thank everybody at Monster for their involvement with my motocross career, said Carmichael. "Monster has played a big part with our program the last few years and I look forward to continuing my relationship with Monster as we continue our transition into auto racing.
As for if he might return to Steel City (Pa.) for the final round of the Triple Crown, Carmichael, of course, had to keep the fans guessing. "We'll see, he said with a laugh.
Monster Energy supports the sport. Be it MX, road racing, supermoto, off-road, FMX, skate, MTB, off-road, surf, snow, BMX -- name it -- the athletes are rockin' Monster Energy more than anything these days. Check out all the types -- Original Monster Energy, Monster Lo-Carb, Monster Assault, Monster Khaos, the new Monster/fruit juice hybrid called "M-80 and the ground-breaking Java Monster premium coffee & cream supercharged with our Monster Energy blend. RC digs 'em -- so will you. On the 'Net at www.monsterenergy.com.

Sunkist Grapefruit Sugar Scrub DIY
I have to say, I don't usually get the "winter blues", but this year, I am really feeling it. It's been so incredibly gloomy in Toronto as of late, so I have no doubt that the weather is what's been affecting my mood.
While I am currently on the search for a warm beach getaway, I recently got a break from the gloominess that is Toronto when Sunkist asked me to join in on an evening dedicated to Citrus for the Senses!
I was already familiar with the benefits of citrus fruits, but there was so much that I learned over the course of the evening. Not only do citrus fruits provide Vitamin C, but I love how Sunkist citrus can reduce stress, help with weight loss and promote heart health. I bet you didn't know that simply peeling oranges, it can raise your dopamine levels! Well, I didn't!
I had the opportunity at the event to learn fun recipes that are made using Sunkist fruits like the countless cocktails such as the Mother Meyer Cocktail, an All Natural Air Freshner using a slow cooker, and my favourite, the grapefruit scrub. Designed to revitalize your skin, I knew I had to make the recipe as soon as I got home!
It's an easy recipe, but I love how it makes my skin feel during the cold winter months when I need some TLC the most! Follow the recipe below and give your skin some Vitamin C while we wait for the weather to catch up!
Grapefruit Sugar Scrub
- ¾ cup of organic sugar,
- ¼ cup freshly squeezed Sunkist® grapefruit juice,
- ¼ cup grapeseed oil,
- 1 Tbsp honey
- 1 cup of not refined coconut oil
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Apply to your hands by dipping a sliced grapefruit in the grapefruit sugar mixture. In addition to the massaging skin benefits, the grapefruit will also work to brighten nails. Follow the treatment with a luke-warm soaked wash cloth.
Watch this video to learn more.

Mouse Droppings: The Most Frequently Asked Question
At the end of Main Street, USA, on the left side of the street just past Casey's Corner, you'll find the Magic Kingdom Information Booth. This is the first information booth visitors encounter in the Magic Kingdom. And while I've never noticed it there, many first-time visitors have, and they stop to ask questions.
Want to know what the most frequently asked question is?
Where are all of the rides?
I kid you not, though I laughed when I learned that bit of trivia. You can imagine why people wonder this. If you're a first-time visitor, and for some insane reason you arrived in WDW without planning or researching anything (imagine!), you might ask the same question as well. After all, you've just entered the park and walked a few hundred yards down Main Street, USA. The castle is in view, and you see lots of areas to sit and eat, manicured lawns, umbrella tables, and people everywhere–but you don't see any rides.
Of course, all good Disney nerds know why this is: because the park is built in a hub and spoke pattern that places each of the themed areas–you know, where the rides are–out of sight at the ends of each spoke. This sort of layout provides the visual break needed to keep each themed land separate. I just can't help but picture the many hundreds of poor, confused families that arrive in the Magic Kingdom each day, scratching their heads and scanning the park desperately for anything that looks ride-like!

Boris Becker has stood by his criticism of Andy Murray by stating that tennis is a clean sport and "rumours are not reality".
World number two Murray said in an interview with the Mail on Sunday that he had been suspicious that opponents may have been guilty of doping as they did not appear to be getting tired.
Becker was not impressed with the two-time grand slam winner's comments, which the legendary German insists are wide of the mark.
The 48-year-old, who won six grand slam titles in his illustrious career and now coach's world number one Novak Djokovic, said Murray should be more careful with his comments in future.
Speaking at the Laureus World Sport Awards, Becker said: "Andy is a friend, I like Andy and respect him and I think he's done amazing things and will do amazing things in the next couple of years, but I have to put my friendship aside and protect the sport a little bit.
"Rumours are not reality. Tennis is an Olympic sport. All the top guys, I know for a fact, get tested a lot. Everybody is clean and so we can't spread rumours.
"If Murray feels that he lost a match because the other guy was running longer than him it's because of the fitness, otherwise we would have known.
"He [Murray] is one of the fittest players on the tour, he is very dedicated, puts a lot of effort into his training and so are the others."
Becker added: "There's been rumours about Rafa [Nadal] over the years, there have been to a lesser extent about Novak. I find that incredibly disrespectful to both players. They are legends, they are super athletes, they live and breathe tennis.
"I would find it equally disrespectful to Andy if somebody claimed he only won Wimbledon because he took a pill. I think that's wrong and that shouldn't be allowed.
"So that was my comment and I stand with it because it's about the integrity of tennis. I felt that I needed to defend it a little bit.
"I don't know what stories he's heard. In the locker room people talk a lot, the days are long. A lot of players lose early, so they show their frustration with talking maybe a bit too much.
"What is talked about and the rumours is one thing and reality is the other thing. If you are such an important player as Andy he has to work media on his feet a lot on a weekly basis, you just have to be careful about what message you bring across.
"I have been around before Novak, I love my sport, I defend my sport and that's where I'm coming from. I'm not speaking on Novak's behalf."

A new season is on the horizon and, as always, it shall be kicked off by the traditional curtain-raiser of the DFL-Supercup between German powerhouses Borussia Dortmund and FC Bayern München at a packed Westfalenstadion.
Pre-season form
Borussia Dortmund enjoyed a fine return to prominence, the season of last, and early into their friendlies, that form continued to show. Early wins over SpVgg Erkenschwick, Wuppertaler SV and FC St. Pauli across Germany and Austria boded well for the upcoming China tour.
A demolition of José Mourinho's Manchester United in Shanghai — which saw new signing Ousmane Dembélé score quite the impressive goal — was soon shadowed by a technical loss to Pep Guardiola's Manchester City on account of a penalty shootout.
A drab showing against Premier League side Sunderland FC resulted in a draw, before a trip to Switzerland resulted in a loss to Basque Giants Athletic Club to cap off an inconsistent pre-season
On the flip side, the Bavarians went from strength-to-strength after their double-winning season. A late comeback from SV Lippstadt was fought off, before a narrow victory over Carlo Ancelotti's predecessor was won by Erdal Öztürk at the Allianz Arena.
On their tour of the US, Bayern partook in an entertaining draw to AC Milan, before losing on penalties to the Italians. However, their frustration was soon taken out on Internazionale, as countryman Julian Green fired his side to an emphatic win with a 28-minute hat-trick.
In a fitting end to the expedition of the one of the world's biggest countries, two of Europe's best faced-off in New Jersey, but, despite dominating the game, it was Real Madrid who ran out as the winners.
Recent head-to-head
It comes as no shock to know both sides have dominated proceedings in contesting the Supercup. So much so, that three of the last four have been fought out between Bayern and Dortmund; the latter winning two of those.
Despite the league being a loose two-horse race, the first of last season's two fixtures in the media-dubbed 'der Klassiker' reflected Bayern's dominance over the last several seasons; cruising to a big 5:1 victory at home. In the reverse tie, Dortmund needed a win to keep their title hopes alive, but the match played out to a tense draw, with both sides having opportunities.
After easily dispatching of semi-finalists Hertha Berlin and Werder Bremen, Germany's big two met in the final of the DFB-Pokalfinale, at the Olympiastadion, for the third time in five years. Much like the earlier tie at the Signal Iduna Park, the match was rife with electricity, but, in the end, a penalty shootout gave Bayern their second trophy of the season.
Squad sitrep
As a result of losing yet another player to their league competitors, as well as İlkay Gündoğan and Henrikh Mkhitaryan to both sides of Manchester, a great expenditure was undertaken in order to sow the wounds of losing three crucial players. Smart purchases came in the form of Raphaël Guerreiro, Marc Bartra, Mikel Merino and Emre Mor, before being forced to splash out on André Schürrle; as Jakub Błaszczykowski shortly went the other way.
Over in the champions' corner, transfers were, as always, big. Mats Hummels retuned to Munich, as CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge saw fit to raid the Dortmund locker again, and Euro 2016 winner Renato Sanches — national teammate of Guerreiro.
As per reliable news outlet kicker, these are the teams:
BVB – Bürki; Passlack, Sokratis, Bartra, Schmelzer; Castro, Rode; Dembélé, Götze, Schürrle; Aubameyang.
FCB – Neuer; Lahm, J. Martínez, Hummels, Alaba; Kimmich, Vidal, Thiago; Müller, Ribéry; Lewandowski.
Given it is strictly not a major piece of silverware, the managers of both teams are unlikely to field full strength teams, as is indicated above.
Of course, the main focus will be on Mario Götze and particularly ex-captain Mats Hummels who, like Sebastian Rode, crossed the intensifying divide. Both Götze and Hummels were victim of unflattering banners from the Gelbe Wand, come the end of last season's Rückrunde, to put it lightly.
For der BVB, Neven Subotić, Erik Durm and Marco Reus are ruled out for Sunday's mega clash; the latter expected to be out until the first Bundesliga match against Mainz.
Good news for Bayern comes in the form of Jérôme Boateng and Franck Ribéry's return to training, but there remains big doubts over Douglas Costa, Renato Sanches, Arjen Robben, Xabi Alonso and, as always, Holger Badstuber.

This past year has brought both good and bad things, and I thought that it is time to look back and also showcase some end of the year pictures of Nicky.
The major change that happened this year is that I went back to work. This has been a hugely positive thing both for myself and for Nicky. We have found a beautiful school, set in a park. I have a lovely boss and Nicky goes for Nature walks along the river. I couldn't be more blessed. True, little toddlers are a handful and I work for it, but honestly this is a good set up for which I am very grateful.
Another real positive this year has been blogging. I am so grateful for the opportunities I have had and the meetups we have had through blogging. And for the income starting to trickle in.
On the negative side my dad had his accident. This has affected everything not only about his body but also about his future plans. However he is coming home for Christmas this Friday and my mom has done wonders with the house to make it a welcome place and wheelchair friendly. The fact that he is alive is a miracle in itself and we are grateful for that.
Towards the end of the year a photographer came along and took some pictures of the children. Having the class sit on a huge tree with gigantic roots was really special. Some of the pictures also really show a lot about Nicky's personality – riding on the bikes (he loves vehicles and racing), hanging out on the jungle gym with a playful kick (shows his sense of humour) and also a reflective one against a tree (a contemplative look).
We had our end of year concert. Nicky dressed up as a traffic officer (well, actually a policeman because that's the closest outfit we could find) and he had some cute words to say: "Hello, my name is Nicky Step, I am a traffic officer and I help people obey the rules of the road", followed by some even cuter hand movements.
They did poetry and dance and once of the songs that sticks in my head is "Children of the Sun".
We are children of the sun We stay forever young Our light is burning brighter than the wicked things that we have done But now love has begun And we are still the children of the sun
So true, folks, your light does burn brighter than any wicked things you have done.. and I think especially as parents we can relate that the light our children give us is far brighter than all the grief!
The other highlight of the day was Father Christmas coming along to deliver presents. DH had the honour of playing this role and Nicky figured it out fairly quickly. ("Why is Dad Farmer Christmas?") I told him he was doing something special for the school. Nicky is aware that Father Christmas does deliver presents ton Christmas day though.
With that done and dusted, we started our holiday program and made lots of various holiday decorations. I was also very sick over this time and after visiting the doctor was on the mend and ready to hit the road.
I am writing from PE and I am so glad that we have made it. So good to be home with my family and I wish you every blessing and rest over the holidays.
Merry Christmas!

Southwest Airlines notified (16-Apr-2010) WestJet of its intent to terminate the agreement to offer connecting service between the US and Canada. Recently, WestJet requested significant changes to the agreement that the two airlines have had in place since 2008, and WestJet has since reaffirmed and clarified its request. Southwest commented that it "cannot agree with the modifications to the confidential agreement". [more] WestJet is reportedly in talks with Delta Air Lines to launch a new codeshare, claiming Southwest's reservation system lacked the functionality needed for the type of codeshare arrangement WestJet was looking for.
Southwest Airlines: "We prefer the existing terms of our agreement with WestJet. Upon reviewing the number of changes that WestJet has requested, we have decided that it is in the best interest of both parties to move forward independently. We remain interested in exploring the possibility of one day offering service to Canada if it makes sense for Southwest and for our customers. That would not rule out future codeshare relationships with Canadian carriers, or flying north of the border ourselves," Bob Jordan, Executive VP Strategy and Planning.

Re: Long Micro sailing video
Expand Messages
- Bill,
Should have added one more thing to that last post ; at the present
time it's almost too hot here for sailing, - or garden shed building,
for that matter!
In fact once the weather gets a little cooler, sailing is more
pleasant, so Autumn's not a bad time at all here, on the water. In
fact there really is no sailing season as such as winter isn't cold
enough in this neck of the woods to put all that many people off
sailing totally.
Anyway, that's one of the reasons that I've been building a Michalak
Scram Pram (with smaller rig) because the "Birdwatcher" design gives
a lot more protection from the sun than a cabin/cockpit boat. many
people predict that a "birdwatcher" would be too hot but I haven't
heard anything from anyone with actual sailing experience of them
here yet.
There's at least one Birdwatcher in Northern NSW somewhere and that
may be about it, so far??
There's a woodenboatforum over here which is quite a good little
forum and I tried to stir up a bit of comment on the
Bolger "Birdwatcher" design with a thread there recently which didn't
go very far!
By the way, yesterday I posted a link to your Youtube video on that
forum too. Hope that's OK with you, Bill!
Mind you, I'd had a couple of new year bubblies by then so the
spelling went out the window! Then again, it could have been all
that sun in the backyard struggling with the garden shed!

- Bolgers plans are STILL relatively cheap. After reading an article on
the Jarcat catamaran I checked into plans to build. Too expensive by
far for the plans a couple of years ago. I checked again last week to
see how your Australian dollar was doing against out US dollar, and
found that it would still cost $375.00 US to buy the plans for a 16'
boat! That puts Bolgers prices into perspective.

Give credit to political bravery when it is due; when Jim Wright became Speaker of the house of Representatives in 1987, when the 100th Congress took office, he immediately started and maintained a loud and insistent campaign to raise taxes in order to combat the budget deficit. I disagreed with his call then, and do so now, but at least Wright had the courage to fight for what he believed in. Not even the skittishness of other Democrats was enough to get him to back away from demanding new taxes.
Contrast this behavior with that of our present Speaker:
House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) said he "made a mistake" when he suggested raising the retirement age to 70 last year.
The Speaker indicated he was premature in suggesting raising the legal age at which retirees are eligible for full Social Security benefits, since he didn't want to pre-judge a debate over how to fix the entitlement program. He said he wouldn't rule out raising the retirement age, however.
"I made a mistake when I did that, because I think having the conversation about how big the problem is is the first step," Boehner said Wednesday evening on CNN. "And once the American people understand how big the problem is, then you can begin to outline an array of possible solutions."
His comments walk back remarks from late June, when he said the retirement age would eventually need to be raised by five years, from 65 to 70.
You know, it is going to be a whole lot more difficult for the Speaker to make the argument in the future that the retirement age is going to have to be raised, having walked back his comments in so (dare I write it?) cowardly a fashion. If Speaker Boehner was going to retract comments stating that the retirement age was going to have to be raised to 70, then he never should have made those comments in the first place. It would have been better for him to remain quiet, instead of making the statements he made, and being forced to take them back.
Of course, the best scenario of all would have had the Speaker make the comments that he made, stick by them, point out that Social Security is in danger of falling off a cliff, and using his position on the issue–and his position in the American political establishment–to push for some kind of increase in the retirement age; perhaps at least up to age 67. Jim Wright could have given John Boehner a few pointers on how to do so; his constant demands that taxes be raised forced the Reagan White House to eventually come around to Wright's position. Too bad that Speaker Boehner has made it significantly less likely that the Obama Administration will be forced to come around to his original position on raising the Social Security retirement age. No profile in courage, he.

How Moms Feel About Social Media
Mothers have dramatically increased their use of social-networking tools in the past three years, according to a new survey of 25,000 women conducted by parenting site BabyCenter.
About 63% of moms used Facebook, Twitter and blogs this year, a whopping increase from 11% in 2006. The survey also found that the kinds of media moms spent time using changed after giving birth. Post-birth, nearly a third (32%) of respondents said they used the Internet more, while their use of other media formats decreased. For example, 44% said they regularly gave TV the sole focus of their attention prior to giving birth, which plummeted to 7% after giving birth.
Moms are also more than twice as likely to use "mother-centric" sites like BabyCenter and CafeMom than they were to use mainstream sites like Facebook. About 68% used these parenting-themed sites, compared with a third who use non-themed sites, according to the study…

Member Since: January 10, 2011Add to Friends
Tyson paraded into my life with a flair for life and a love for people. He's a loyal young pup, and has been a momma's boy since the day we met. We started out in Alberta, and have since moved to Ontario. He dealt with the move beautifully, and is thriving in his new home. He gets all the love and attention a little boy could ever want. His favourite things to do are play with sticks, run with his cousin, Magic the doberman, get cuddles, kongs, and naptime. He is getting to be a big boy, and had extra fur and skin to still grow into. He's always full of energy and ready for a run. If there is snow on the ground, his otherwise black nose turns white from burrowing in it.View Profile

"Ole Nosey," a columnist who covered society and nightlife for the black newspaper The Chicago Defender, offered a sense of how Harold Parker had made a name for himself by 1959.
"The Boy Wonder of Peoria," he ran an "interracial night club" that was the "hottest thing this side of Khrushchev," one that recruited its talent from Chicago. Perhaps it was in the act of "shopping for talent" that he had met his new wife, a Chicago chorus girl named Carmen Dutallo.

You set up an elaborate lab for students to investigate solubility. Unfortunately you have one student home sick and another in the nurse's office.
With only so many hours in the day and only so many materials on a campus, there's a good chance that those two students will have to skip the lab. When they feel better and return to class they still need to know about solubility so they can continue through your properties of matter unit. What can you do?
First of all, keep a page of each of the science mini-charts on hand! These are cards formatted 4 to a page with the basic information students need from a missed lesson.
While the card cannot replace instruction and hands-on experiences, students can still get the "big idea" from the lesson they missed in a short period of time.
After gluing the card in their notebook and reviewing the information, the absent student completes Output by responding to the card with a drawing, writing, or other reflection choice.
Here are four additional ideas to help an absent student get caught up AND give other students an opportunity to review.
- A teammate explains the investigation or lab and the results.
- A class member takes photos of the activity and quickly reviews them with the class the following day.
- A couple of students share their output from the activity on a document camera.
- A teammate helps the absent student through a modified version of the lab. For example, if students determined the volume of 5 irregularly shaped objects, the absent student could just find the volume of just one or two objects.
Are you looking for Science Mini-Charts? Find them in my TpT Store. More topics to come!


text: 2 points from last position. Potentially lost our major playmaker for the season. Our other playmaker can't seem to give an 80 min potent performance. Haven't beaten a top team yet - remaining draw is tough. I know eels and Titans have their own issues (probably worse than ours). Just wondering what your thoughts on this is... and please, just need positive ones, can't bear anymore gloominess this morning.. Just kidding, any thoughts will do.

Libya's Vigilantes recruit with Social Media in bid to stop Human Smugglers
For decades this town on Libya's Mediterranean coast has been a hub for trafficking between Africa and Europe. One morning in late August, Zuwara awoke to a tragedy involving the local criminals' latest cargo: humans. That morning, 183 drowned migrants washed up on the city's beaches. Moral outrage sparked a citywide volunteer effort to identify the victims and rescue hundreds of other people foundering at sea. It also galvanized a group of frustrated citizens-turned-policemen who had been lobbying the town's elite to break the smugglers' longtime grip on the town.
"Smuggling is a social disease here. It isn't just one family that runs the business. Lots of families have their fingers in it," said Aymen Algafaz, the 32-year-old commander of the squad known locally as the Masked Men, which has become the town's official police force. "The feeling was that we couldn't arrest each other's cousins or brothers. That's now changed."
At an emergency meeting called the day after the tragedy, 15 of the town's leading citizens told Mr. Algafaz they would disregard the tribal customs that had previously kept traffickers above the law. Hours later, he ordered a raid on the homes of three alleged human traffickers, arresting them and then later another dozen men allegedly in their network.
Zuwara's attempt to take on the human-trafficking mafias shows how difficult it has been to shut down the booming black market that feeds off migrants trying to escape civil war or make a better life in Europe.
It also highlights how Libyans are trying to fill the security vacuum created by the 2011 overthrow of Col. Moammar Gadhafi. Two dueling national governments have stalled attempts to build a viable coast guard or national police to patrol the North African nation's 1,000-mile coastline.
Zuwara's August crackdown hasn't stopped the flow of migrants from Libyan shores. A trafficker in Tripoli, 70 miles east of Zuwara, said his business is unaffected. Last month, Libyan and European coast guards rescued more than 5,000 migrants whose ships sank in the Mediterranean. A Libyan naval spokesman said the country can't mount a national response given the political discord.
More than 300,000 refugees and migrants have tried to cross the Mediterranean to Europe so far this year, up from 219,000 in all of 2014, according to the United Nations refugee agency, and at least 3,000 have died en route.
A significant percentage of those deaths have occurred on ships sailing from the Libyan coast around Zuwara, according to U.N. and Libyan officials. That area is known as a crossroads for smuggling both migrants and cheap fuel to Europe, and alcohol and cigarettes from Europe back to northern and sub-Saharan Africa.
What was a fringe business in Gadhafi's time has blossomed into a core part of the economy, especially after layoffs at Zuwara's main employers—a nearby oil refinery and chemical plant—because of the political uncertainty.
Diplomats and law-enforcement agencies say Zuwari gangs are responsible for smuggling tens of millions of dollars of fuel from the refinery to Tunisia, 15 miles away, and across the sea to Malta. Drugs and alcohol also are shipped through town, they say.
"It was almost fashionable to have a smuggler in the family," said Adam Absa, a 25-year-old former hotel-management trainee who now is a member of Mr. Algafaz's squad.
Zuwara struggled after 2011 when ex-rebels with guns turned to street crime and smuggling. The Gadhafi-era police existed in name only. There was no working police force, only neighborhood militias. The quandary was acute: Who would punish criminals with ties to notable town families and reputations as liberators?
By 2014, Mr. Algafaz and five school friends decided they were fed up with lawlessness. They had grown up with an appreciation for volunteerism. Some were former Boy Scouts. They proposed to the newly elected town council that they form a new squad to fight crime.
"I never grew up dreaming of becoming a cop. No one in Libya trusted the cops," Mr. Algafaz said. "But no one was standing up to restore my town to a place that was safe for families, either."
The council eagerly approved the establishment of Mr. Alfagaz's unit—the Specialized Intervention Squad—to tackle petty crime such as robbers preying on shopkeepers, street-corner drug dealers and vandals. Squad members fielded calls from neighbors and family members who saw crimes in progress.
Establishing their street credentials wasn't easy. Mr. Algafaz said townspeople first saw his team as just another group of thugs with arms.
The squad promoted itself via social media. Crew members made arrests while wearing black masks to reduce the likelihood of retribution attacks. They began calling themselves the Masked Men. Their numbers grew. Squad leaders said they have arrested several dozen suspected burglars and drug dealers. Some go to a makeshift prison, others into house arrest guaranteed by a family elder. Few have had formal court hearings. Criminal courts in Zuwara, as in the rest of Libya, currently operate ad hoc—a situation human-rights organizations have criticized as leading to selective justice and rights abuses.
But many Zuwara residents credit the squad with helping restore a respect for order. "There was impunity" after the revolution, said Adel Adawakh, a social worker and the town's Boy Scout leader. "We know these are good boys looking to make our streets safer."
Each of the 125 squad members patrol two nights a week. Their headquarters, a factory abandoned by Chinese investors, has sofas, a PlayStation and a barbecue grill. As the squad grew, its ambitions to focus on larger crimes such as smuggling were met with ambivalence by city leaders, according to team members and Mayor Hafed Ben Sassi. Its first attempt to arrest an alleged human trafficker sputtered in 2014 when the man was granted bail and disappeared, said Mr. Algafaz. "If you don't have cooperation from the town, then you can't accomplish your goals," he said. "We did what we could."
This April, Zuwara's human traffickers were spotlighted internationally after a boat that left the Libyan city sank off the Italian island of Lampedusa and an estimated 800 people died, the largest single deadly trafficking incident in the migrant crisis this year. That tragedy sparked Europe to step up patrols in the Mediterranean and to hold top-level meetings about the issue. Still, the Libyans made no move against the smugglers.
Mayor Ben Sassi said Zuwara didn't have the resources or equipment to stamp out the trade. He said he attended two European-sponsored anti-trafficking conferences and appealed for help buying 4×4 vehicles and patrol boats, but that Zuwara hasn't received any aid. At the start of the summer, local residents say, Zuwari traffickers were sending would-be refugees on boats toward Europe twice a week, on average. Other black markets such as fuel smuggling also were flourishing, they say.
In the early hours of Aug. 27, smugglers launched a leaky wooden boat filled with an estimated 450 people from a beach 10 miles west of downtown Zuwara. By morning, fishermen reported corpses bobbing in the waves and, by midday, dozens of bodies had washed ashore. A second boat launched from Zuwara also sank that day, adding to the death toll. The gory scene overwhelmed volunteers who had mobilized to help. Fishermen and the town's sole coast guard boat tried to find and rescue survivors. The Red Crescent organized teams to remove the bodies, but the town's supply of body bags ran out. By Friday the town had rescued 187 people, but nearly as many were dead, and dozens more were unaccounted for. Photos of several drowned toddlers fueled the moral outrage. That afternoon, the mayor called an emergency meeting of the city's tribal elders, the city council and Mr. Algafaz.
The 15 men agreed that locals responsible for human trafficking would be cut off from the extended tribal or family connections that previously had protected them from punishment. "Libyans understand the gravity of this decision. It was crucial to punish the criminals before the city's reputation was ruined," Mr. Ben Sassi said.
The Masked Men jumped into action. They pressured informers to talk, citing the new edict. Early the next day, the group arrested three men that it said owned the two vessels and accepted payment from the migrants for passage. Soon after, the unit arrested another 12 people who allegedly were part of the wider trafficking-support network. Family members of the three alleged ringleaders couldn't be reached for comment. The group won't reveal where it has detained the alleged smugglers. Mr. Absa, the squad member, said secrecy is necessary to keep other smugglers from springing the detainees.
Mr. Algafaz and the mayor concede that, with Libya's judicial system in turmoil, the arrested men are unlikely to stand trial. The Masked Men worry that if an official judicial hearing takes place, the accused would be allowed to post bail—and then would flee. It is unclear how long they will remain in detention.
Many of the dead may never be identified. Zuwara has no official forensics squad, so volunteers, led by medics and a veterinarian, photographed possible identifying birthmarks and personal belongings found next to the bodies. Then the corpses were buried in a mass grave on the outskirts of town. Pakistani and Bangladeshi diplomats in Tripoli have confirmed that at least 35 of the 183 dead, including two children, were their nationals. No one has identified dozens of other bodies that Zuwari medical officials believe to be Syrian, Ethiopian or Eritrean.
Meanwhile, across Libya's unpatrolled coastline, there is still a thriving market for passage to Europe. One Zuwara-based smuggler said he has been able to rebuild his business from the nearby coastal town of Sabratha. A Tripoli-based smuggler said he still works without hindrance. "Europe can't stop the number of boats that we put in the water," he said.

African Ebola Outbreak Worsens, Americans Warned
It's the worst Ebola outbreak in history. The virus is now being blamed for more than 700 deaths in four West African countries, and it shows no sign of coming under control.
Now U.S. health officials are warning Americans not to travel to the three hardest hit countries: Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone.
"Unfortunately, these countries don't have the infrastructure to handle the response, and, moreover, they don't have any experience with these kind of outbreaks in the past," Dr. Steve Monroe, with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said.
Meanwhile, American missionaries Nancy Writebol and Dr. Kent Brantly will be returning to the United States to be treated for Ebola.
They were serving on a joint team in Liberia with Samaritans's Purse and the Christian missions organization SIM when they contracted the virus.
Writebol is in stable but serious condition and is receiving an experimental drug.
"The Ebola virus in terms of mortality rate right now is at about 64 percent. That's good news for us. We feel mom has a chance," Jeremy Writebol, her son, said.
Franklin Graham, CEO of Samaritan's Purse, said Dr. Brantly is fighting for his life.
"It's a very difficult day for him. We just ask everybody who's watching, if they will pray," Graham said.
Those who know Dr. Brantly say he put his life on the line for one reason.
"This is a guy who thinks people should give more than lip service when they say they're going to follow Jesus," Kent Smith, from Southside Church of Christ, said.
Meanwhile, Liberian Christians are gathering for a time they are calling sackcloth and ashes, asking God to halt the spread of Ebola in their country.
Five-hundred leaders are coming together in the capital city of Monrovia for three days of fasting and prayer.
Pastor Emery David, with Triumphant Christian Church, told CBN News that Christians are trusting God for a miracle.
"What we want is this Ebola lifted. If it is an error, a sin that we have committed, we want God to forgive the Church, the government, the nation, and heal the land," he said.

While most people can recognize a great song, there are the rare ones who can create them – over and over. Some of my personal favorites include Neil Finn (of Crowded House & Split Enz fame), Jason Mraz, Bob Marley and the guys from U2. So what do all these geniuses have in common? The four-chord progression, of course.
This was hilariously captured by the Australian comedy group 'Axis of Awesome', and is worth every moment of a 5:31 YouTube video for my musical geek friends. Enjoy!

This post is to show what got done in one week. We went from having just the foundation and floor on Monday to have the walls up, the rafters in, and the roof on by Friday! Since it rained hard yesterday, it wasn't worked on today and probably won't be tomorrow.
Like I said, we had this Monday – The foundation and floor. A bit of a side note – Our Siamese tom cat, Sammy, will sometimes crawl through the openings you see on the right side, and spend most of the entire day down in the dark sleeping. If he hears us out there working in the afternoon, he'll hop out and then shake his head and wander around blindly because he's been in the dark for so long. It's something to watch!
After the walls were put up, then came the fun part of lifting the rafters into place on top of the walls.
And here's what it looks like today! The roof is on, walls are up, and rafters are in.
For now, the rafters are covered in plastic wrap to keep the dust and water off.
Here's the pretty view from the new room where we can see the river behind the house.
So it isn't even close to done, but it's coming along quite well. Like I said in the first post about this project, it's just too much fun not to share!

When working with Dates and Times, you will not only work with the classes Date and Time – but also with DataAndTime, which combines both classes.
This class is available in most (all) Smalltalks, but the implementations are pretty different – though there is a good public interface common to all Smalltalk implementations.
Pharo stores the date as julian date and the time as seconds since midnight. VASmalltalk stores the value as milliseconds since 1.1.1901 00:00:00.
Instances of this class can be created like:
DateAndTime year: 1901 month: 1 day: 1 hour: 0 minute: 0 second: 0
VASmalltalk converts this – more or less – in UTC and stores the milliseconds value into its instance variable – and remember its offset from UTC (as an instance of Duration) in another instance variable.
For more than four years it is known, that VA does not calculate the offset to UTC during the summer time period in a correct way. I've been published several ways under WIndows and now under Linux to get rid of this bug – but who knows how long it takes to get rid of this problem. Please remember this bug – because I mainly used the fixed offset method – therefore the values printed below may be different from thos in your image:
Ok, but now back to the instance creation method above. What do I expect from than method ? Perhaps two answers seem to be suitable here:
* I expect a DateAndTime representing the local time for those values
* I expect a DateAndTime representing the UTC time for those values
Most implementation return a local time oriented value. Both Pharo and VASmalltalk have some problems here – they take the actual offset into account – when the statement is executed. That means:
DateAndTime year: 1901 month: 1 day: 1 hour: 0 minute: 0 second: 0
executed (here in Germany) in (e.g.) January is more or less interpreted as:
31.12.1900 23:00:00 +00:00 or: 01.01.1901 00:00:00 +01:00
if you execute the code in (e.g.) June here in Germany you will get (with the fix):
31.12.1900 22:00:00 +00:00 or: 01.01.1901 00:00:00 +02:00
or without the fix:
31.12.1900 23:00:00 +00:00 or: 01.01.1901 00:00:00 +01:00
and in the last cast this is actually right (by random), because 1901 there was no daylight saving active …
As long as you stay within the DateAndTime instance you have no problems, but when doing printing or serializing (like for example for XML or JSON) you will export the bug and the importer of your time values (the potential receiver of your printed values) get actually wrong results – and even when doing #asMilliseconds you get a wrong UTC value – under circumstances.
Therefore to get rid of the problems above you should always execute the instance creation method including the offset: parameter like:
DateAndTime year: 1901 month: 1 day: 1 hour: 0 minute: 0 second: 0 offset: (Duration hours: 1)
The main problem here is, that the correct offset is perhaps not known for that specific date or at least not easily to calculate (of course 1901 is not a good example – just take later years, when daylight saving was introduced).
But knowing the internal representation – you can understand, why #asUTC is very simple within VASmalltalk. It just sets the offset to a zero Duration, but when the instance variable has the wrong content … then the UTC value is also not correct.
When considering ICU usage one may write:
aDateAndTime:= DateAndTime icuLocalYear: 1901 month: 1 day: 1 hour: 0 minute: 0 second: 0
and you get
31.12.1900 23:00:00 +00:00 or: 01.01.1901 00:00:00 +01:00.
And getting into the summer of that year you may execute
aDateAndTime:= DateAndTime icuLocalYear: 1901 month: 6 day: 1 hour: 0 minute: 0 second: 0
and you still get: 01.06.1901 00:00:00 +01:00
Then we go to the nearer history (1980)
aDateAndTime:= DateAndTime icuLocalYear: 1980 month: 6 day: 1 hour: 0 minute: 0 second: 0
and now times are changing: 01.06.1980 00:00:00 +02:00.
With release 0.0.10 of my wrapper additional code for printing and parsing has been wrapped:
"with 'de_DE' and 'Europe/Berlin'" aCalendar := UCalendar openDefaultWithDefaultLocaleAndTimezone anUDateFormat := UDateFormat openTimeStyle: UDAT_LONG dateStyle: UDAT_LONG locale: 'en_US' zoneName: 'UTC' pattern: nil. aString := anUDateFormat format: aCalendar millis fieldPosition: nil.
"May 27, 2011 3:03:31 PM GMT"
or with locale = "de_DE" one gets:
"27. Mai 2011 15:03:31 GMT"
and in addition with zoneName = 'Europe/Berlin' one gets:
"27. Mai 2011 17:03:31 MESZ"
With 0.0.10 I added simple support to parse the string back into a DateAndTime instances:
| locale timezone aCalendar anUDateFormat aString aValue | aCalendar := UCalendar openDefaultWithDefaultLocaleAndTimezone. anUDateFormat := UDateFormat openTimeStyle: UDAT_LONG dateStyle: UDAT_LONG locale: 'de_DE' zoneName: 'UTC' pattern: nil. aValue := anUDateFormat parse: '27. Mai 2011 17:03:31 MESZ' calendar: aCalendar parsePosition: nil. anUDateFormat close. aCalendar asDateAndTime inspect
and you get:

Brown contend Allstate has deprived no-fault claims adjusters of appropriate wages for working more than 40 hours per week by uniformly misclassifying them as exempt from federal and state overtime requirements.

When you meet Lucy Rooney in LUCY DOESN'T WEAR PINK (in October -- get ready!), you can imagine her living right here. I discovered this house a year and a half ago when I was here in New Mexico and I could just imagine Lucy peeking out the window looking for signals from her best friend J.J. across the street, or dashing out the door to go to soccer practice. I took this image home in my mind and she's been living there ever since. When I went back yesterday (and took this picture!), I expected her to be hanging out in the back yard, dribbing a soccer ball -- that's how real she is. (Okay, so writers are a little wacky!) I can't wait for you to meet her, too.

Sheboygan, Wisconsin

- Place of passing:
Los Gatos, California, United States
So sorry to hear of Dick passing on. Dick may be the nicest man I have ever known. Since I started working for PRNS as a young man many years ago Dick would say " hey Kevin how are you " most folks it's just a phrase, but I always sensed Dick ment it. You hear this now and again, but everyone loved Dick, he cared about people, he was always willing to help co workers, Dick was loved. RIP
I was in many meetings with Dick when he worked for the City of SJ, Parks and Recreation Department. Dick was always so kind and caring. He even showed up to my dad's funeral many years ago. I didn't even tell Dick about my father but he still came to support me. That's the kind of guy Dick was for people. May he rest in peace.

Mayim Bialik, as Amy Farrah Fowler, with Jim Parsons in "The Big Bang Theory."
IT is 9:30 on a weekday morning, and the scene inside the one-bedroom house in Los Angeles's Studio City neighborhood feels like an advertisement for the neo-hippie home-schooling life.
The two boys are still in pajamas. The family bed, adjoining mattresses where the two sleep with their parents, has been hastily made. The mother, who has finished cooking a dish of vegan macaroni and cheese, summons her 6-year-old for a piano lesson, padding across the room in sock-monkey slippers.
Then the scene changes. The father heads to the beach with the boys. The mother, who has traded the slippers for four-and-a-half-inch gold heels, stands in the living room in a floor-length Bordeaux gown, as a well-tanned stylist looks on approvingly.
Stylist: "Perfect. Now I just need to get you a nail color."
Mother: "No, I need to get the vegan nail polish."
(Mother gives brief tutorial on a dye, found in some cosmetics, made from crushed bugs. Stylist freezes, aghast.)
The mother in question: Mayim Bialik, 36, star of the 1990s TV show "Blossom," who will wear the Bordeaux gown on Sunday at the Emmy ceremony, as a nominee for best supporting actress for her role as the hilariously deadpan neurobiologist Amy Farrah Fowler in the comedy series "The Big Bang Theory."
If Ms. Bialik has the distinction of being a celebrated child star who slipped off the radar, led a successful civilian life, then re-emerged years later in not only what appears to be prime mental health but a well-received role in a leading sitcom, it's not her only distinction. Even in a world where it's become common for celebrities to be not just performers but politicians, business owners, international humanitarian workers and conspicuously attentive parents, Mayim Bialik's collection of choices is unusual.
Ms. Bialik is a proponent of attachment parenting, the intensive, much-debated child-rearing approach that involves co-sleeping (hence the family bed), natural childbirth and nursing-on-demand. She's also the author of a recently published book on the topic, "Beyond the Sling: A Real-Life Guide to Raising Confident, Loving Children the Attachment Parenting Way," and just announced that she is writing a vegan cookbook. In addition to playing a scientist on TV, Ms. Bialik also has a Ph.D. in neuroscience from U.C.L.A.
"We'll ask her questions like, 'If you're going to dissect brains, how do they come packaged?' " said Bill Prady, a creator and executive producer of "The Big Bang Theory." (Answer: in containers resembling large plastic trash cans.)
Ms. Bialik is also an observant Jew (she calls herself "aspiring modern Orthodox"). On Facebook and her blog on the Jewish parenting Web site Kveller, Ms. Bialik has been unusually open about her life, her choices and her imperfect attempts to reconcile the conflicts that crop up around them.
Last fall, she wrote about how she went to work on the Jewish holiday Sukkot, when Orthodox Jews do not work or drive. She hired a driver for the holiday, refrained from using her computer or cellphone, and dressed up to make the day feel special.
The Emmy gown was specifically, and painstakingly, selected to cover Ms. Bialik's arms and much of her chest, conforming to the religious modesty guidelines she has embraced. Last year, she wrote in her blog about the arduous quest for a suitable dress, which she called "Operation Hot and Holy."
It succeeded only after Ms. Bialik, frustrated with her stylist ("It was not a meeting of the minds," she said), bought her own dress online. This year her new stylist, Alison M. Kahn, chose the gown, by the designer Pamella Roland. ("I don't know who she is," Ms. Bialik said in August, "but I don't know who anyone is.")
Even so, stylist and client had a back-and-forth about the contours of the neckline, with Ms. Bialik acknowledging that she "rather subjectively decided" that the original version was too "plungy."
"It became about it being plunging, which to me is just one of those distinctions of modesty that I've decided to stay on the other side of," she said. A compromise was reached. Plenty of women consider themselves modern Orthodox without adhering to the standards of modesty that Ms. Bialik sets for herself, making the choice particularly intriguing for someone whose career entails magazine features and red carpets.
It is "a religious and philosophical principle that not everyone owns the best part of me, that I own the best part of me," she said. "Because I grew up in the public eye, that really spoke to me."
During its run from 1991 to 1995, Blossom, if not Mayim Bialik, was a household name, at least among girls who considered themselves offbeat and smart and perhaps had not made the cheerleading team.
Post-Blossom, the high-caliber movie roles that might have kept Ms. Bialik in the industry eluded her. "The world then was not friendly toward sitcom actors," she said.

Heavy petting and kissing... can I be pregnant?
I am 20, in India, and my periods are irregular: I have Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. I've never had sex in my life, not even a thought of doing so before marriage. Somewhere around the the 18th of May, we were alone and talking together and God knows how, my boyfriend and I just indulged in heavy kissing on bed with clothes on for say 3-4 minutes....
Three questions about taking the birth control pill (and plenty of answers)
I had sex with no condom 3 days before I started my period, AND 1 day after I started my period. I'm on birth control BUT I was at the end of my 1st pack I have ever took (taking the non-active pills) and I don't exactly take them at the exact same time every day but pretty close....
Is masturbation good for your health?
Is masturbation is good for your health?...
Can you make yourself pregnant by putting semen in your own vagina?
My best friend recently confided in me that immediately after her boyfriend ejaculated on her leg, she swiped some of the semen with her fingers and proceded to enter them into herself in hopes to get pregnant. We were talking about this and I asked if you actually could get pregnant this way and neither one of us knew the answer. Now that's my question for you....
We wouldn't get pregnant..not us.
Hi in 16 turning 17 and its my first time on here and I find it very useful. I am soo glad that I finally found help. I've been dating my boyfriend for eight and a half months now, and we've had sex numerous times since....
No pill, no condom, and now, no period.
I typically start my period at the end of a month and then it continues to lead into the next month. Last month, I ended on the 4th and then had another period in that same month on the 21st-26th. This month, I have yet to have a period. My periods are a little irregular seeing as there have been a few months where I have technically had 2.....
I'm 13, and want to have sex: will it hurt?
I really want to have sex for the first time. But I am only thirteen. I know vaguely what to do and I know to use protection. But I was talking to my 17-year-old cousin (who has had sex before) if it hurt his girlfriend the first time. And he had said that she was screaming and she felt as if she wanted to die. This information scared me a little too much for comfort....
White goo in my pants: is that normal?
I always get a sticky white goo in my pants, when I wipe it off it sometimes looks a bit yellow. It doesn't itch, smell or I don't suffer from any pain with it. What do you think it is, and who do you think I should see about it? ...
I didn't wash my hands after giving a handjob: am I pregnant?
My boyfriend and I were making out last week, and it was our first time masturbating each other. He got me off first (he still had his boxers on) then after I came, I gave him a hand job. After he came, he put on his boxers, and we lay there kissing for a bit. His wet boxers against the area slightly above my pubic hair but still within my 'triangle'....
BDSM fantasy: will it limit my sex life?
I have serious problems becoming sexually aroused without fantasizing about certain BDSM-like scenarios. I've been having fantasies of that sort for a really long time- years before I even knew what BDSM was- so I was thinking that my problem might just be that I'm used to these types of fantasies and only fairly recently started trying to use other means to get myself off, so to speak....

President Donald Trump mistakenly called the United States a company in a joint press conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel Friday. The visit came as Merkel and other worlds leaders were calling on Trump to uphold the U.S.' free trade deals.
Asked about his isolationism by a German reporter, Trump said, "The United States has been treated very, very unfairly by many countries over the years and that's going to stop."
"We're a very powerful company—country," Trump added, apparently catching his mistake. "We're a very strong, very strong country, we'll soon be at a level perhaps we've never been before. Our military is going to be strengthened, it's been depleted. But I am a trader, I am a free trader, I am a trader that wants to see good for everybody worldwide. But I am not an isolationist but any stretch of the imagination."
For comparison: Trump's 19 second handshake with Prime Minister Abe from Japan

WSDL sucks. The whole WS-* protocol stack sucks. There, I said it.
It hurts, a pain in the but. Difficult to write and hard to debug. I cannot think of another technology that have wasted more of my time and I have yet to find one person that can give me a clear and concise explanation exactly how to to use it. Allegedly one of the most overengineered technology in the history of computers.
Doing wrong is easy, doing right is hard.
Its bloated. Tooling support is poor and hide necessary complexity. Interoperability is hard. Caching is not an option. Noncompliant with traditional web technology. The wire format is insanely verbose. Backward and forward compatibility is a nightmare. You have to read endless piles of specifications to design anything sophisticated; even sometimes bend over backwards to do the simplest of things. All your are left with is a pile crap to maintain in the end.
WTF? Where is KISS and productivity to be found in this mess?
System integration should not be this hard.
