MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A mother is looking for answers after her son came home from daycare with a mysterious scar on his face.
She said it happened at Ms. Bunny Rabbit Day Care in East Memphis. And that mother is not the only one looking into the situation.
The Department of Child Services is also investigating.
Tanecqua Garrett believes it happened on the daycare on Macon Road.
"He ran to me and he was like, 'ma look at my face.' I look down and I'm like, 'Whoa. What happened to your face?'"

Trending stories:
FOX13 spoke with the daycare's owner, who did not want to speak on camera for legal reasons. However, she denied the claim.
According to Garrett, the owner said the child – 4-year-old Kingston Boyland – was dropped off at the facility with the scar on his face. But she said that is absolutely false.
FOX13 also reached out to DCS. Officials said that an "investigation has commenced."
"I just want to know what happened because accidents do happen," Garrett said.
Garrett said she has never had issues with the daycare before, which is consistent with the facility's three-star rating from the state.
Since 2013, no violations have been found during inspections. That is why Garrett is shocked she does not know what happened to her son.
"I just want to know the truth. I just don't want this to be a mystery," said Garrett.
In the meantime, Garrett has taken her kids out of the daycare.

Isolight is for Video Quality Testing
- Frame Rate – Set the LED chaser so that several LEDs are visible in each image. The frame rate is the number of LEDs from the start of the bar in one image to the start of the bar in a second image
- Frame Rate Jitter – the frame time from one image to the next should be constant. If the frame rate varies more than one LED, there is significant frame rate jitter in your system
- Dropped Frames – Every LED should be visible in at least one video frame. If any LEDs are missing from the sequence, your system is dropping frames. You can estimate the drop-out period as well
- Audio/Video Synchronization – Audio/video track synchronization can be measured by capturing video with audio markers enabled for emphasis LEDs. Each audio marker should sound during the associated video frame. The amount of leading or lagging indicates the audio track desynchronization
- Auto-Exposure Behavior – Using the auto LED brightness mode, you can watch the exposure time change from frame to frame as you adjust the light level. This is very useful for measuring and auto exposure convergence time, stability, and over/undershoot

Ridwan Adeoye: The Muslim Entrepreneur
We all want to live freely, live our dreams, do what we love and run our own shows. This is a life which is usually available to everyone who chooses the entrepreneurial path. So do you want to be a successful Muslim entrepreneur and achieve just that? Entrepreneurship has been a part of the Muslim way of life since the time of the Prophet (PBUH). It was no secret that the prophet (PBOH) ran his own successful business as a trader, which then caught the eye of another successful business person, Khadijah (R.A.), who was impressed with his (SAW) impeccable character. This is an activity encouraged by our faith and in fact, the Prophet (s) has said and urged us "be involved in business as 9 out of 10 sources of income lie in business" (Ihya). Islam has set a code of ethics that need to be adhered to by the Muslims. The Qur'an and Hadith set out this code for every Muslim to abide by. There is no separation of business and religion. Hence, the individual is first a Muslim and then a businessman/woman after the fact. Since our aim is not to run after Dunya and its profits, rather to run a business for Allah (SWT) sake and to fulfill our duties to him, as Muslim entrepreneurs, the following traits are encouraged of us: To be generous To pay alms(Zakat) To be trustworthy To have tawakal (Trust in Allah) To avoid bad behaviour Entrepreneurship has many definitions, but it's commonly described as someone who identifies a problem and turns it into a business opportunity. According to the Author of the book; "Low- Risk, High-Reward": Starting and Growing your Business With Minimal Risk: "Entrepreneurship is the recognition and pursuit of opportunity without regard to the resources you currently control, with confidence that you can succeed, with the flexibility to change course as necessary, and with the will to rebound from setbacks" What's more important than the act of being an entrepreneur is developing the entrepreneurial mind-set. It's the mind-set of looking at problems as opportunities and creating more with less. It encourages risk-taking, creativity, innovation, and disruptive thinking. The Muslim world needs to adopt this mind-set to prosper. Now that we are aware about entrepreneurship in Islam, let's see what are the common traits amongst successful Muslim entrepreneurs. 1) Commitment to Faith A strong commitment to Islam and faith in Allah (SWT) means a commitment to the tenants of Islam such as prayer, fasting and giving alms. You find that successful entrepreneurs are focused on their worship to Allah (SWT) because they know all prosperity and success comes from Him alone. 2) Impeccable Character Whenever I get to speak to any entrepreneur, I try as much as possible to know what their values are. I have always found out that their values can all be summarized into a unit of words; "successful entrepreneurs hold high values which are celebrated in Islam such as responsibility, keeping promises, honesty and integrity". 3) Creativity and Innovative Thinking The point of being able to generate ideas is a function of creativity and finding new opportunity is crucial to innovation. Any entrepreneur who thinks indicatively or entrepreneurially generally has an aptitude to think critically and solve problems, which generally leads to a plus for the society. A great example will be setting up mini-skills acquisition center in mosques that rather than have spaces wasting away. This will help better build Muslims who would be great entrepreneurs. We could also even have a good ICT center that can serve the immediate community of that mosque. Considering the great problems of our modern age, we need more entrepreneurial minded Muslims to apply Islamic principles to solving problems in many fields, such as medicine, agriculture, food, technology and contribute meaningfully to moving humanity forward. 4) Future Oriented Allah (SWT) commands us to think about His signs. This type of thinking requires insight, the ability to be be self-reflective and think about one's life in relation to other human beings and the universe. That form of self-reflection naturally leads someone to be future-oriented, to think about their legacy and what they'd like to accomplish with their lives. Successful Muslim entrepreneurs know Allah (SWT) will ask everyone to be accountable for how they used their time, wealth, health and knowledge and they make sure they prioritize their life accordingly. 5) Motivation Growing up, many of us were more motivated by external things; friends, family, school etc. Not many of us learn how to cultivate internal discipline and self-motivation but this is what a successful entrepreneur does. They don't wait for anyone to tell them what to do, or when to do it. They make sure they get the work done even if they don't feel like. They are driven by their passion to excel and achieve their goals. 6) Be the Best Successful entrepreneur wants to be #1 in their given field and this takes hard work with a combination of knowledge and skills. To be the best, you must work on acquiring the cutting edge knowledge in your field and always reading about current trends. This will keep you at the top of your game. 7) Self- Confidence Someone once explained that fear is the idea of trusting yourself. Let me say that again, fear is trusting yourself. People fear because they put too much hope and trust in their own abilities but believe that's the only thing that will get them there. A successful Muslim entrepreneur believes in a higher purpose and in a higher being. Allah (SWT), therefore their fear is small because they understand the greatness of the work they are doing. Purpose eliminates all fears. Many people will tell you that your dreams won't work out. They probably don't want to see you succeed or get hurt. The trust is, the more people tell you something won't be successful, the harder you should work and the stronger your faith should be to prove them wrong. A successful entrepreneur doesn't listen to naysayers. Allah (SWT) encourages us not to be negative weak or sad "So do not become weak (against your enemy), nor be sad, and you will be superior(in victory) if you are indeed(true believers). (Al-Imran: 139). 8) Do What You Love People who follow their passion go farther than those who do what they hate. You will work harder, you will enjoy it more, you will stay late hours, and be more determined to see your project through. It's a natural fire within you that keeps you going. When you focus on doing things for money, or any materialistic reasons, you might fail. Money shouldn't be a motivator for human beings, working for something higher than we are is the best of all motivators. 9) Be Persistent When Allah (SWT) encourages us to be strong, it's implied that we must never give up. A successful entrepreneur always does what it takes to get the job done, no matter what obstacles get thrown their way. Never give up. 10) Focus on Solving Problems This is by far one of the most important qualities of an entrepreneur. To the exclusivity of everything else, they focus on solving problems for other people and creating value for other people. This is the basis of all great businesses. As it's important for following your dream, remember to focus on helping others find and accomplish their dreams/goals first. Then you will succeed. Salam Alaikum.

Pediatric Flat Feet
From the moment a child is born, parents are on a constant watch for milestones. First words. First solid foods. First steps. Yet along with the constant eye out for the good stuff, there's another, more worried eye out for the bad. So what do you do when you notice your child's arches seem to disappear, or are rarely seen at all? You learn about pediatric flatfoot.
A Flexible Flatness?
In most cases of pediatric flatfoot, a child's arches will tend to flatten or vanish when he or she stands up from a sitting or lying position, and return upon sitting down or rising up on tiptoes. This is called a "flexible" form of flatfoot, and is not too great a cause for concern.
When we are born, the arches of our feet tend to be undeveloped. Once we get on our feet and begin toddling around, the arches strengthen and develop to support us. Most children will outgrow this condition by the age of five. As long as it causes no pain or problems with gait, then no actions usually need to be taken to treat it. It's still worth monitoring, however, because there's always a possibility that flatfoot can stay and become problematic.
A lasting form of flat feet—one that does not change with stance or disappear by a certain age—is referred to as "rigid." This form has a greater likelihood of resulting in symptoms that need to be addressed.
Rising Up Against Flat Feet
In general, it's a good idea to receive a podiatric checkup when you notice flat feet in your child, even if they are not in pain. This is just to be sure there are no underlying conditions that might cause future problems.
You should definitely consult with us if there are additional symptoms, such as:
- Pain, tenderness, or cramping anywhere from along the bottoms of the feet to up the legs
- Discomfort when walking or being otherwise physically active (some children might show this by pushing away from sports they once enjoyed)
- A visible change in the way your child walks (their gait)
- Heels that tilt outward
When coming in for an appointment, bring in a well-used pair of your child's shoes, if possible. Viewing the pattern of wear on them can provide some helpful clues on how child's foot and leg mechanics are operating.
Pediatric Flatfoot Treatments
If pain is present, the use of shoe inserts or custom-made orthotics can often provide the support the arch needs to find relief. Older children can also benefit from exercises and stretches that can condition the supportive muscles and structures of the feet.
In some rare cases, conservative approaches to relieving discomfort may fail and surgery might then be considered as an option. These odds are more likely in children with rigid flatfoot. The type of procedure that would be performed greatly depends on the type of flatfoot, its severity, and the age of the child.
Children's Foot Care in Missoula, MT
From small concerns to painful problems, children's feet deserve expert attention and care just as much as those that have had many more years and miles placed on them. Dr. Gregg Neibauer and his friendly staff at Alpine Foot & Ankle Clinic will be happy to set up an appointment for you and your child. Give us a call at (406) 721-4007 or use our online contact form to get started.

For Immediate ReleaseDecember 06, 2018
Law change for locally registered domestic partners
San Rafael, CA – With a recent change in California tax laws, qualifying locally registered domestic partners who transferred ownership of property between themselves may be eligible for some property tax relief. The benefit is not automatic and a claim form must be timely filed with the Marin County Assessor's Office.
State Assembly Bill 2663 may provide relief for transfers of real property between local registered domestic partners that occurred between January 1, 2000, through June 26, 2015. If there was a related change in ownership reassessment that occurred during that period, that reassessment may be eligible to be reversed on a prospective basis. When a claim is filed with the assessor before January 1, 2019, the benefit would apply for the following calendar year regular tax bill and thereafter. Persons who may qualify are encouraged to review the claim form and file before January 1, 2019.
In Marin, County Assessor Richard N. Benson has made the downloadable form available on his department's webpage. The form is called BOE-62-LRDP with the title "Claim for Reassessment Reversal for Local Registered Domestic Partners."
"We will do our best to formally notify and provide forms to all locally registered domestic partners owning property who may qualify," Benson said. "We're trying to get the word out because applications we receive before January 1, 2019, will receive a benefit for the 2019-2020 tax bills. The applications we receive after January 1 won't get the benefit until the following year."
The bill, introduced as an urgency statute to amend the tax code, received bipartisan support in the State Assembly and State Senate after it was first introduced in February 2018. It was signed by Governor Jerry Brown on September 29 and immediately went into effect.
The State Board of Equalization, which handles property taxes, notified county assessors in early November about new forms available to allow for such reassessments. The State Board produced a December 11 information Letter to Assessors No. 2018/057 titled "Change in Ownership Exclusion" Local Registered Domestic Partners." Parties also may contact the Assessor's Office for more information at 415-473-7215 or by e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Note: This release was updated December 18 with a link in the final paragraph to the December 11 letter from the state.

FAQ & Know-How
When something's wrong, your body has its own way of signaling you to pay heed by sending pain signals. Whether the pain is sudden or persistent, it's important to react quickly. If your problem is left untreated, there's a chance it can become chronic over time.
The American Academy of Pain Medicine reports that an astonishing 100 million Americans suffer pain each year and more than half of pain sufferers believe they have little or no control over their pain. The good news is, you are more empowered than you might think to alleviate your pain.

First, it's important to understand what TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) is. It's used to assist pain issues to alleviate sore, achy muscles. The muscle TENS machine has been around for years.
TENS uses low-voltage electrical pulses that have been around since the 1960s. This innovative technology is used to block pain signals that are sent to the brain and stimulates the production of endorphins which are the body's natural painkillers.
Does it treat acute and chronic pain?

While TENS units are designed to interrupt pain signals, EMS units work to stimulate healthy muscles, improving and facilitating their performance. Put simply: TENS stimulates the nerves to keep pain signals from reaching the brain; EMS, on the other hand, causes the muscles to contract by imitating the actions originating from the central nervous system.
What are the main purposes of electronic muscle stimulators?
EMS units relax muscle spasms, re-educate muscle, increase local blood circulation, break up lactic acid and stimulate inactive muscle fiber. Accordingly, they are often used to relieve pain, tone up weak muscles and aid in the healing process. EMS may be utilized to prevent muscle atrophy and assist in the retraining of certain muscles following a CVA/Stroke. Consult your physician or physical therapist to determine if EMS may benefit you following an injury.
How do you use an electronic muscle stimulator?
It's really quite easy with virtually no learning curve. Just hook up the electrodes, place the silicone gel pads directly on the muscles, turn on the electronic muscle stimulator, and set your preference. If you are coping with a post-injury situation, for example, you may want to opt for more conservative settings, increasing the frequency and pulse width and setting the treatment timer for 20–40 minutes, so as not to exhaust the muscles. You may want to experiment a little to make sure your preferences are just the way you want them.
It's good to remember that HiDow electronic muscle stimulators are lightweight, portable and efficient, and focus on your different stages phases of relaxation and contraction. Within a very short interim, you will know precisely what settings are best for you. If you are using a brand of EMS other than HiDow, consult the distributor for questions regarding the model/unit purchased.
What kinds of customers purchase HiDow electronic muscle stimulators?
It's quite common for people use electronic muscle stimulators to address muscle pain. For instance, several Olympians train with muscle stimulators to stay on top of the game. Muscle stimulators are widely popular in the sports industry and are a staple in big leagues such as the NHL. Athletes – both professional and recreational — use EMS to prevent aggravated injuries that hinder their performance. Since it works evenly to distribute the blood flow, no area is deprived of much-needed nutrition.
But athletes are not the only ones welcomed to use a muscle stimulator. Office workers, laborers, and everyone who needs a solution to relieve muscle pain can benefit from HiDow's innovative devices.
What kinds of conditions are treated with a muscle stimulator?
A muscle stimulator may be used for both cosmetic and remedy purposes.
– Muscle Weakness
– Improving Muscle Tone
What are the benefits of a muscle stimulator?
For one thing, workout times are cut in half. You will likely see results in as little as ten days because muscles are conditioned for performance. The HiDow muscle stimulator contracts your muscles in much the same way as a workout does, meaning you'll experience a feel-good burning sensation the next day. If your muscles ache, you typically limit your motion. With the help of a muscle stimulator, muscles are contacted, improving strength, mass, and tone.
You can also increase your range of motion electrical pulses from the HiDow muscle stimulator loosen tight tendons and muscles, helping with flexibility and evenly distributing blood flow to areas experiencing imbalance.
Even if don't currently suffer from muscle pain, muscle stimulators relieve stress and improve the body's blood flow. Some even say that experiencing the effects of a HiDow muscle stimulator is similar to enjoying the sensations of a deep tissue massage.
Muscle strains are one of the most common sports-related injuries. Muscle strains result when a tear or excessive stretching occurs in the muscle tissue from the bone it is connected to. Muscle strains occur most commonly in the lower back or in the back of the thigh, but can occur anywhere where there is muscle tissue. The most obvious symptom of a muscle strain is pain or soreness at the point of injury; however, some other common symptoms include swelling, weakness, muscle spasms, bruising, and stiffness around the affected area.
TENS/EMS Units to Address Muscle Strains
HiDow is well known for their TENS and EMS units that stops pain signals from reaching the brain. As a result, it stimulates the production of endorphins making you feel relaxed. The results are instantaneous meaning you'll feel a reduction of pain in no time. HiDow is FDA and CE approved making it one of the most recommended to pain management alternatives to promote performance and wellness.
You Can Also Try Simple Home Treatments
If you experience a mild muscle strain there are a number of simple home remedies that can help you recover. Immediately after experiencing a muscle strain, the key is to reduce inflammation. Doing so will help to reduce pain and swelling in the affected area, which in turn helps to accelerate the recovery process.
Adhere to the RICE Formula
Over-the-counter anti-inflammatories such as ibuprofen are great for this. You may also have heard of the RICE formula: Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation. Just remember to cover the ice or cold pack with something to avoid damaging your skin. If you have a health condition that prevents you from using anti-inflammatories, use the RICE method to reduce inflammation naturally, and supplement with an acetaminophen product such as Tylenol to help relieve pain.
Work On Preventative Care
Lastly, you can greatly reduce the likelihood of ever experiencing a muscle strain in the first place by being sure to warm-up properly and to incorporate regular stretches into your daily routine or exercise regimen. Always try to avoid sudden heavy lifting and take the sensation of fatigue during exercise as a sign that your muscles are losing their ability to safely perform strenuous activities. Vigorous exercise can be very good for developing strength and conditioning, but there is always a point beyond which continued exertion becomes counterproductive and potentially injurious. Everyone is different, so be sure to respect your unique limits.
Are you looking for back pain relief? You may want to consider more advanced alleviation options. TENS—transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation—machines make for excellent options for temporary relief in many instances.
Back Pain Relief Using HiDow TENS Units
Back pain is among the most common physical issues and sources of pain for people today. And it's not just our bad posture habits that are the source of our bad backs. Rather, it is due to the very nature of the human spine: we evolved very quickly to upright bipedalism, and our spines transformed from being straight and rigid to having a delicate "S"-shaped curve comprised of over two dozen precariously stacked vertebrae discs. Unfortunately, this design leaves us vulnerable to all sorts of stresses and alignment issues that, if left unaddressed, may result in chronic or acute forms of back pain. The good news, back pain relief can easily be attained using our HiDow products.
A Pain Management Solution
TENS units work by stimulating the nervous system and inhibiting pain signals to the brain. They may also help to stimulate the production of endorphins in the brain, which also helps to lessen the severity of pain.
Whatever the state of your back today, consider implementing good habits into your daily routine, and act quickly when you notice you have back pain that is regular or becomes acute. As the popular saying goes, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure; likewise, good habits and beneficial technologies like TENS units are great ways to avoid expensive and complicated procedures further down the line. Be kind to your back and you may be one of the few who are rewarded with a lifetime free of back pain.
Luckily, there are a number of options for back pain relief today. Using HiDow's TENS and EMS Technology, you can address muscle relief in no time. Of course, there are some common home remedies include regular stretching, sleeping on your back or side instead of flat on your stomach, and always maintaining good posture while seated or standing. However, when you're looking for relief, use a HiDow device for your pain management solutions.
Here's an overview of when and how to use
temperature for pain management.
Cold: Works well after a sudden injury.
Helps to relieve/prevent swelling & inflammation by narrowing blood vessels.
Use approximately and no more than 20 minutes once an hour over a period of 48 to 72
hours. Protect the skin with a cloth between the injured area and cold/ice pack.
Do not use frozen cold packs or ice packs when sleeping which may result in pronlonged
application and damage to the skin.
Heat: Promotes pain relief and healing from muscle aches and pains.
Promtoes flexibility and can relieve/prevent joint pain prior to exercise.
Do not use heat if swelling is present. Apply the heat pack for 15 to 20 minutes. May alternate heat and cold for chronic pain.
Use a barrier between the heat pack such as clothing or towel.
Be sure to not overheat your hot pack…it should be very warm on the skin but not burn.
Moist heat may provide a deeper more effective modality than electrick dry heat (heating
Read instructions and care for your heat/cold pack to prevent injury and gain full benefits of

Licenced energy assessor, Rod Holt, has found that many new home builders don't understand the new Building Regulation (part L1A) introduced in April 2006 to ensure that new homes meet strict new energy standards. It is ironic that energy efficiency is often cited as one of the major advantaged of new homes, when this is often not the case.
Here is a list of items to look out for:
- The roof should provide 200mm quilt insulation between and over the joists as minimum to acheive thermal performance levels.
- The house must display an energy rating in the form of a SAP rating showing that the building scores a number between 1 to 100. The SAP rating should have been prepared by a approved competent person. There should be a SAP Certificate displaying the SAP Rating, TER (target emissions rate) & DER (dwelling emission rate). The DER figure should be less than the TER.
- Low Energy Lights should be located in Living Rooms, Kitchens and Hall, Stair & Landings, these should be Florescents, LED or pin type fitting so that a light can't be replaced with ordinary light bulbs/tungsten filaments.
- Make a note of the boiler type and model and go onto the web site www.sedbuk.com. The boiler should be listed with a Sedbuk A or B rating and have a minimum efficiency of 86%.
- The home should have been pressure tested by approved individual to ensure that there are no holes in the structure to cause draughts. There should be a pressure test certificate supplied.
- The Heating and water system should have been commissioned by self certifying competant persons with a certificate produced and details of how to control the systems.
- Pipe in voids, ceilings, roof space should be insulated.

McALLEN — A former U.S. Customs and Border Protection officer is back in custody after a federal judge remanded him back into custody upon failing a drug test, according to officials with the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Texas.
Jose Javier González, 37, of Mission, who was released on a $30,000 bond on May 31, 2017, was back in front of U.S. District Judge Randy Crane Monday after he failed to live up to the terms of the aforementioned bond.
Gonzalez, a former CBP officer working in the Rio Grande Valley, was arrested and charged in connection with federal computer fraud charges last May, according to court records.
The former federal officer faces five counts of fraud activity connected with computers, which stems from his alleged role in accessing and obtaining information on five different federal employees from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the FBI. This allegedly occurred from July 2015 to November 2016, according to the indictment against him.
"(Gonzalez) intentionally exceeded authorized access to a computer, and thereby obtained information from a department or agency of the United States; namely, the defendant obtained information and records pertaining to … an individual from the Department of Homeland Security and the Federal Bureau of Investigation," the indictment reads.
Crane revoked Gonzalez's bond and remanded him to the custody of the U.S. Marshals after a drug test revealed that Gonzalez had tested positive for cocaine, court records show. Earlier this month, Crane had approved a requested modification to Gonzalez's bond release conditions, allowing him to travel outside the Southern District of Texas for employment — another condition of his release.
Gonzalez's attorney, Edinburg-based O. Rene Flores, successfully argued to have the terms of Gonzalez's release modified as Gonzalez sought employment in Reagan County, which at the time was outside the area he was allowed to travel.
Crane approved the modification on Jan. 8 only to have U.S. Marshals arrest Gonzalez eight days later on the pre-trial violation, court records show.
During the hearing Monday, Gonzalez denied using any illegal drugs or violating the terms of his condition, USAO officials said.
Calls left for Flores went unreturned as of press time.
Officials with U.S. Customs and Border Protection did not return messages for comment regarding Gonzalez's case.
If convicted of fraud activity connected with computers, Gonzalez faces up to 10 years in federal prison.

Meanwhile, media calls Trump conspiracy theorist for pointing out Clinton-Epstein connection
(Newsbusters) – Accused pedophile Jeffrey Epstein's body was barely cold after a reported suicide in a federal prison when MSNBC personnel began chiming in with conspiracy theories pointing fingers at the Trump administration and the Russians. AM Joy host Joy Reid insinuated that Attorney General William Barr was somehow at fault:
This is somebody who not only is high-profile, who not only knew a lot of high-profile people, whose papers just came out of court just to let out of some of the documents related to his cases that name high-profile people, who is friends with the current President of the United States, who flew a previous President of the United States around on his plane. Who is alleged to have trafficked girls to a member of the royal family of Britain.
This is on the same level of a Bill Cosby. This is a famous person who's now in prison. He knows a lot about a lot of people. His only out at this point would to talk about those people. So, he's in this very vulnerable situation.
And then came the insinuation lacking any proof:
This Department of Justice does not exactly inspire confidence. Let's just be blunt. William Barr's Justice Department is not one you can readily simply rely upon and feel confident in. What do we make of all of this now that in this federal facility this person was allowed to be alone long enough to either harm himself or be killed by some—we don't know what happened. We just don't know.
Chiming in with his own evidence-free conspiracy theory tweet was Joe Scarborough.
A guy who had information that would have destroyed rich and powerful men's lives ends up dead in his jail cell. How predictably…Russian.
— Joe Scarborough (@JoeNBC) August 10, 2019
How predictably…Scarborough.
Who does this guy think he is? Alex Jones?
Frequent Morning Joe panelist and MSNBC national affairs analyst John Heilemann obediently followed Scarborough's Russian theory by syncing his own tweet to match Joe's theory less than an hour later.

In athletics, more applicable than knowing the number of muscles we have in our body is knowing how to get the most from them. When it comes to muscle development and peak performance training methods, Mike Gillette is a valuable resource. Mike's resume is full of fitness focused experience, and frankly, is jaw-droppingly impressive. He is steady in his lifelong study of strength and conditioning methods adding gymnastics methodologies to his already long list of conquests.
Tumbl Trak is pleased to introduce Mike Gillette as an esteemed contributor to this month's newsletter, with more to come! Enjoy!
"Every man has a right to his own opinion, but no man has a right to be wrong in his facts…" - Bernard Baruch (former adviser to Franklin D. Roosevelt)
"We perform our push-ups fast for muscular endurance…" - some coach
"We perform our push-ups fast to develop speed…" - some other coach
"We perform our push-ups fast to build strength…" - yet another coach
As illustrated above, when it comes to training, there are opinions and there are facts. Which means that the most important mystery to solve is figuring out which one is which. This is because we tend to do things that we like to do. And we usually like those things which are familiar. So, all too often, an individual athlete or coach defaults to doing things which are familiar in lieu of things which could be much more productive.
This is not necessarily a bad thing. After all, what you're doing might be working for you. But is it? How do you know? Do you test your methods or do you just "put in the time"? In other words, are you basing your training on opinions or facts? I often use the expression, "Measurement eliminates argument." If you don't test your methods, your athletes are not actually training with a valid athletic process. Without testing, they are simply "acting like" athletes.
An effective training program must be premised around two key elements: a 'process-orientation' and 'methodological metrics'. A 'process-orientation' focuses on perpetual improvement. These can be improvements in power output, technique or some other facet of overall athleticism. These are the building blocks upon which you can achieve eventual victories.
But, many times, coaches and athletes gravitate towards an 'outcome-orientation'. Wins and losses. Wins are desirable outcomes, no question about it. But we can't always win. Does that mean that you or your team are not making progress? Depending on your circumstances, a sixth-place finish at a meet could be a fantastic achievement. If you were launching a brand-new team or club and only looking at 'wins' (outcomes) as your barometer of success, you'd be looking at the wrong end of the developmental spectrum.
Without going on a tangent about the variety of things you can't control as a coach or athlete, your time is better spent, particularly with a new program or one which is in "rebuilding mode", by making your athletes better. And you cannot, strategically at least, make your athletes better without 'methodological metrics'.
Methodological metrics is a term which refers to the things in your training program which are the sub-categories of overall performance; increases in strength, improvements in skill, mobility, etc. There are two reasons why performance variables such as these are good to focus on. The first reason is that they are all measurable. In fact, they're all rather easy to measure so long as measurement is built into the process. Secondly, all of these sub-goals contribute to an outcome which is completely under the control of both coach and athlete: improved performance.
Make no mistake, winning is great. Really great. But for coaches and athletes; judges, travel-delays, illnesses and a myriad of other variables will never be under our control. So focusing solely on the wins and losses (outcomes) only provides a partial picture of our overall progress. But your own efforts, intelligently applied (and monitored with regular testing) will lead to the long-term goal of getting "better". And the good news is that you can control this process of betterment. You just need to have a process by which to do it.

spring greens / neon returns
Dyeing attempt #2 with the Elann Sock It To Me 4-ply. (Initially typed 4-play, whoops! Hello, Freud.)
I used Wiltons in Leaf Green and lemon-lime Kool Aid to achieve these cheery bundles. I hoped the kool aid would provide enough acid, but it didn't look like it would exhaust, so I added more lemon juice, which helped. I also added a pinch of salt to the dye bath; rumour is that helps with dye in which blue is involved. Hard to say whether it did or not.
In low light, such as is now shining in my window, the yarn looks very bright green. In these photos it's a little more subdued-looking.
I'm having a hard time deciding what colour it really is. The close-up shot above is not colour-accurate.
You may be able to see the subtle semi-solid thing happening in this picture. I dig it. I'm tempted to say it's the only subtle thing about this yarn, haha. But in truth I wasn't going for subtle.
I'm considering overdyeing this to try to get a darker green, but the more I look at it the more I like it. I envision Twisted in a bright green like this, so maybe I'll just go for it and save darker green for another day. Two more skeins of Sock It To Me left...

I refuse to give up on this 10 though.
So it's happening in the morning. Which is a little nuts for me because I've never ran before work before. And this will be an 1.5 hour+ endeavor.
Oh well- it's gotta happen. And I'm jotting it here so y'all can hold me to it!
Ask for the report! Don't let me wuss out.

A reader named Trina Amadon posted the following comment at 4:46 this morning in response to a story titled "Stubbs Sues GIITEM."
"Southern Nevada Confederation of Clubs, Inc., et al, Plaintiffs, vs. Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, a Political Subdivision of the State of Nevada, et al, Defendants,
"July 26, 2013 – all cases DISMISSED
"Hmmm . . . all cases dismissed. Mr. Stubbs is a nothing but a self promoter who used you to try to make a name for himself. A bow tie does not a lawyer make."
Because Trina Amadon is commenting on a story this page has not yet written, The Aging Rebel believes it is appropriate to run her comment and the reply to it on the front page where readers will not have to hunt for it.
Reaction Is
Dear Trina Amadon,
Yeah, I was looking at this dismissal this morning and I will probably write about it in a story that will include a recent ruling in the New Jersey suit that prohibits the plaintiffs from actually collecting any money – which means the lawyers cannot be paid. I am not ready to write about the Vegas dismissal yet. The judge's ruling itself is only 14 pages long but I also want to study the motions that led up to it.
Let me just quote this about the legal, technical reason most, but not all, of the suit was dismissed yesterday, which orbits the question of whether the Southern Nevada Confederation of Clubs has "standing" in this matter. The quote is long because I haven't put the work in yet to make something complicated and technical seem simple.
"The LVMPD Defendants argue that the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Fourteenth, Fifteenth, Sixteenth, Eighteenth, Nineteenth, Twenty-Third, and Twenty-Fourth Claims for Relief must be dismissed because they are not brought by proper plaintiffs. Plaintiffs respond that SNCC is an umbrella organization with standing to bring suit on behalf of its members. However, the Amended Complaint contains no allegations concerning SNCC's identity, mission, membership, or other details from which the court could determine SNCC's relationship to the action. Thus, SNCC has failed to meet the pleading requirements of Rule 8.
"Furthermore, SNCC has failed to establish standing even if the court were to disregard the fatal absence of any such allegations in the Amended Complaint. SNCC claims to be an umbrella organization representing both incorporated and unincorporated motorcycle clubs and their members, for the purpose ofpromoting and protecting its members' common interests, including seeking and promoting fair treatment. An association may bring suit on behalf of its members when: '(a) its members would otherwise have standing to sue in their own right; (b) the interests it seeks to protect are germane to the organization's purpose; and (c) neither the claim asserted nor the relief requested requires the participation of individual members in the lawsuit.'"
I also think it is important to remember that although most of the suit has been dismissed the issue is not yet cooked. In the conclusion of Judge Gordon's ruling yesterday he wrote:
"Plaintiffs have until August 30, 2013 to amend this case as described above and to file new and separate actions regarding the severed claims and parties. Each of the severed cases will be consolidated before this court for purposes of discovery. The parties to each of the severed actions are required to pay a filing fee."
As far as Stubbs goes, he has obviously tried to carve out a legal niche representing motorcycle clubs and individual patch holders. I've never hired him. I have written about him because he makes news. I honestly can't yet say whether Stubbs screwed up here. I really can't. I know for a fact that he really annoys numerous authority figures in Nevada and I know he is basically the one guy facing at least a platoon of opposing lawyers with unlimited funds. I don't yet know what the odds are that the suit will be modified to overcome the standing issue or whether the suit is dead. I do know that the strategy of trying to end police harrassment by filing civil rights suits looks less effective to me than it did even a week ago.
Clubs and others have hired Stubbs and I think his cases are interesting on a lot of levels. I think the guy has taken on cases nobody else would and he makes news so he has gotten a lot of play here. Just about every day I have to write about something so I don't think Stubbs has used me anymore than I have used him – if that is your implication. Personally I would rather write about big issues that effect multiple clubs that little stories that are important to fewer people.
I am open to the criticism that I have given Stubbs more credit and importance than he deserves.
I think your comment is timely and important so I intend to run it both here, where it might be easier for you to find, and on the front page.
Thank you for commenting,

Fire has both positive and negative connotations.
- Positive: Fire can mean heat, like a campfire, or heat to cook your food. Fire brings light.
- Negative: Fire destroys homes and buildings.
In the spiritual life
- Jesus talks about the unquenchable fire of Hell. Jesus is very clear about this. Jesus is talking about the reality of Hell. But, it is the truth. Jesus loves us so much that he doesn't want any of us to go to Hell. Hell is real.
- There is also a positive connotation of fire. The fire of God's love, the fire of the Holy Spirit. "Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on fire." (St. Catherine of Sienna) In other words become the best version of yourself.
I want to invite all of us to give us a chance to be a prophetic voice. Let us pray:
Come Holy Spirit. We ask you to rest upon each of us as tongues of fire. Give us a new outpouring of your Holy Spirit. If there is anyone here who has grown luke warm or mediocre in their faith may you enkindle in them the fire of your love. Help us to be who God has meant us to be, the best version of ourselves, so we can set the world on fire. Mother Mary, we ask for your intercession.
Hail Mary…

Starting School with Successful Drop Off
Hi my name is Kimberly Wilson and I am a Director at Lutz Learning Center, a preschool that has been in my family for the last 39 years. I pretty much spend my day surrounded by children and their families, and I'm also a mom myself.
Feel free to read thru my blog here, or watch it below:
Today, as we all prepare for the upcoming school year I want to share some tips I have to help other parents be successful the moment you walk thru the classroom doors. The problem I see most parents struggle with plays out like this:
You've shopped for the ultimate back pack, you've got your child's lunch packed and you've done your due diligence to write that special note. You've attended open house and met the teacher and now it's the morning of your child's first day. Everyone is excited. You drive to school, tote them inside and all of a sudden panic strikes and your child balks at you leaving. They cry, you cry, heck at this point I'm probably about to cry. What went wrong?
Here are the pieces you might have missed: As a parent, you must make sure to let your child know what you expect. The wonderful thing about children is they really aim to please, they just don't know how to handle the big emotions. So to avoid the previous scenario, my solution is to speak with your child about the first day, let them know what to expect (and most parents in fact do this) but when you get to school, as you get out of the vehicle, give your warm fuzzy love and goodbyes there – whatever your routine is – and be sure that instead of carrying your child into school, you ask them to lead you in. Have them hold the door for you if possible, ask them to show you to where their classroom is, have them take you to say good morning to their teacher, show you to their desk or area. All of these tasks I am describing are what will put the child in the driver seat. This is how you go from taking your child to school and dropping them off to having your child take control of going to school and deciding that you may leave. When your child knows the routine and is in charge of calling these shots, you have just enabled your little one to be one of the big kids and this is how big kids go to school.
Now if you're watching this and you've already experienced the tears and the trauma, don't worry – it's not too late. Just follow the plan, which you can review right here:
- Speak with your child about how you expect drop off to go. Keep it simple, "When we get to your school, I need a big hug and kiss from you before you take me into your school and show me your classroom this morning."
- Be sure to put your child in charge of walking you into school. Do NOT carry your child in, let them lead you.
- Keeping the drop off brief, have your child settle in and tell you goodbye.
- Take their cue to leave, dragging out long goodbyes in hard on children and heightens the emotions. As much as you want to comfort them, assure them they will have a great day and tell them you can't wait to hear about it later on today.
I hope following this plan helps you find success not only in your child's first few days, but in their many remaining years of school.

In progress
9 of approximately 16 sycamore trees located on Ashley Road between the houses at the bottom of Gartons and the farm on Ashley Road are so large that the base of their trunks have grown across the boundary of 22 Garstons into the back garden.
Reported in the Overgrown public spaces & parks category anonymously at 15:47, Thu 6 June 2019
Sent to Bath and North East Somerset Council 3 minutes later. Council ref: 1651059.
A cluster of very old sycamore trees on Ashley Road is causing problems for 22 Garstons (and neighbours). More than half of a group of tightly packed tree trunks are now so large that the base of the trees are on my land, preventing me from erecting a fence to keep animals out and small children in. A large branch fell into my garden in Sep 18 - I reported it and asked for the trees to be checked out and potentially lopped, but received a general acknowledgement of my query and no further correspondence. I sent details of these trees in again in Feb 19 with a proposal for me to carry out works on them but received no reply. I would like to remove or lop these trees but they are council owned, therefore please could I be put in touch with someone who can discuss, agree and authorise me to carry out work, or advise any other course of action. My neighbours on both sides, plus the farm owners are all in favour of removing the trees as a tree surgeon has advised that the trees are far too big and far too close together for the short distance that they are away from houses. There are other trees in the immediate area, so loss of this group of trees should not be of detriment to the surroundings.

(VIDEO) Are Monster Energy Drinks The Work Of Satan?
Now some of you may have heard of this theory before. Monster energy drinks really being a cover to promote the rise of the Antichrist. Well it seems one woman's explanation of this somewhat paranoid idea has gone viral.
The unidentified woman in the video goes through each of the conspiracies involved with the drink company. First she starts of with the idea that the "M" on the front of the can is actually made up of the Hebrew "6" which is repeated three times.
This would imply "666," but according to others, including actual members of the Christian community, the "number of the beast" is actually 666, or six hundred and sixty six. That would not translate in Hebrew to six repeated three times.
Either way she still goes on to say, "You see these Ms everywhere — hats, T-shirts, bumper stickers. Is there another agenda here?" She continues, "If God can use people and product, so can Satan."
The next somewhat outlandish theory is that the "O" on the can is actually a cross and represents the Antichrist. She says that this is done every time someone drinks out of the can because it turns the cross upside down. This, to her, represents witchcraft. "Bottoms up, and the Devil laughs," she says. "Something to think about."
She then points out the slogan or tag line of the company, "Unleash the Beast." This, she also believes, points to the company's demonic underlings, as well as their use of profanity in their marketing.
This is a pretty unfounded claim and defiantly doesn't make sense when you realize that Monster Beverage Corp. also owns Peace Tea. Either way check out the video below for a good laugh:

Want to see how ancient villages used to look like? Head down to Mohan Shakti Heritage Park and step right into the past. Just half an hour drive from Solan, the Mohan Shakti Heritage Park is an ultimate place to visit. Mohan Shakti Heritage Park is North India's first ever ancient heritage park. National Heritage Park is located at Shakti Sthal on NH 22 between Kalka and Shimla. The picturesque park is supplemented with many unique structures. The park is still under construction and is believed to be the largest heritage park in Himachal Pradesh. Here, tourist can enjoy exploring a heritage park, pass through grasslands, indulge in bird watching, catch glimpses of archaeological sites, and gorgeous landscapes of peaks, clouds and sunshine.
Within the huge periphery of the park, there is a beautiful shrine, Kali Ka Tibba temple. The shrine seems like an emerald amidst the wilderness. The entire complex of Heritage Park is dotted with multiple statues, sculptures and statuettes. Huge statues of Indian Gods and Goddesses can be seen here. Unique animals made of plaster of Paris (POP) are the main attractions of the park.
Inside the complex of Heritage Park, there are herbal therapy centres, community kitchens, theme parks, residential blocks, temples, study centres, open theatres and ropeway trolleys. This heritage park was built with the purpose to promote Vedic Sciences as a topic of interest for the younger generation and also to preach them about Indian culture. Mohan Shakti Heritage Park is the profound creation of Mr Kapil Mohan, Brigadier General of the Indian army by profession. He (Kapil Mohan) made this heritage site with a vision to nurture the Vedic Sciences as a subject.
Located in the midst of great mountains, Mohan Shakti Heritage Park is an exceptional place. The park is an amazing initiative to revive the Vedic lifestyle.
Address: Mandir Road, Hart Village, Himachal Pradesh 173214

This page is dedicated to giving musicians answers to our upcoming Paris Orchestra Challenge.
What is the challenge?
The form a 20-40 piece popup orchestra from strangers in Paris and record a live album and do a one-off live concert.
When is it?
The recording of the live album is on Sunday 9th April at Studio A in the world famous Les Studios Ferber (rehearsal 14:00-18:00, recording 19:00-21:00).
We are then doing a small concert with around 10 musicians at the opening of Ethnografilm festival on Tuesday 11th April – Ciné 13 Théâtre (19:00-21:00)
What music will you be performing?
The challenge is to create new music, which can be of any style, but it will likely have a contemporary indie/folk feel. Click to see a video of the previous orchestra challenge in London for an indication of style.
How much work is involved?
This project can be as low maintenance as you would like. As long as you are available on Sun 9th April from 14:00, this is the bare minimum.
We can score the parts for you if you prefer to just turn up, learn them and play, or we can collaborate with you on your parts. We are happy to involve all musicians in the songwriting process. We will be in Paris from 1-12 April so can arrange rehearsals and meetings any evening you want to work through the songs.
Will I get paid?
We have a budget of €500 to start, split between all musicians as initial payment (so, if we find 20 musicians, that's €25).
In addition, we will split evenly all profits from the sale of the album, and give you all songwriting and publishing credits of all new songs we collaborate on. 100% of any profits made will be split with the musicians (and no-one is taking a fee). This is how we always work. We always give all the money we make to musicians (we are advocates of the Work Not Play initiative by the Musicians Union).
Have you done anything like this before?
Check out Shaun Buswell's wikipedia page for evidence of previous challenges. Shaun & Erik are very experienced at this and the feedback from musicians has been brilliant. These really are amazing projects to be involved in.
What instruments are you looking for?
We accept any instruments, but we always like to work with string, brass and woodwind player initially, and add any contemporary instruments around them.
What songs will be on the album?
We are looking to record the following for the album:
- a minimum of 6 completely new songs/compositions
- 4 songs from special guests, where we have arranged orchestral accompaniment
- 2 songs by Buswell & Nyberg
If you have any other questions you want answered, please feel free to comment below, or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.
