PHOTO ESSAY: An afternoon with the vet at the Wellington SPCA
Mar 21st, 2018 | By Sarah McMullan | Category: News, Picture story
Nestled amongst the trees on Mt Victoria sits the Margaret Doucas Animal Hospital, named after the Wellington lawyer that left a large bequest to the SPCA earlier this year.
Ms Doucas this year left $1 million for the charity to pay off the shortfall from refurbishing the former Fever Hospital into a custom refit animal hospital, shelter and education centre.
She earmarked a further $1 million in bonds and investments towards ongoing operational costs.
This bequest and others, along with money raised from fundraising and by donations is what enables the SPCA to do the work they do: prevent cruelty through education, investigation and intervention, seek justice for animals who are harmed, provide welfare response, shelter and rehabilitate animals that need it, then rehome them.
Last year the Wellington SPCA had 5000 animals pass through the shelter.
Of special note in the process of getting them to a re-homeable state is the Wellington SPCA's vet clinics and surgical centre.
One vet clinic takes private, paying clients, often pets originally adopted from the SPCA, and what would usually be considered profit is funnelled straight back into the animal hospital.
The other clinic and surgical centre is available for animals brought into the shelter.
Megan Sewell, practice manager of the Wellington SPCA, says the ability to have an in-house surgery, X-ray and some lab facilities onsite is of great advantage, as is having two full time vets on staff, and a team of trained assistants and nurses to assist them.
Instead of spending money on outsourcing diagnostic services, or surgeries, the Wellington branch can spend the money treating abandoned, injured, neglected or stray animals that outsourcing may have made prohibitive in some circumstances.
"Our facilities here are the envy of others." says Ms Sewell.
Those facilities, and the variety of work the staff are faced with is one reason why a placement at the Wellington SPCA is much sought after by students studying veterinary science at Massey University.
Both vets and veterinary assistants join the team on temporary, assessed placements, and its hands on from the get go.
"It's exciting and scary," said one student who asked not to be identified.
"But I love it.
"Seeing how fast they recover, and how quickly they start responding with love again?
I know I'm in the right profession."
Journalist Sarah McMullan swapped her headphones and microphone for a surgical cap and a camera, and spent the afternoon with the SPCA Wellington's surgical team.
The animals in the following photographs now have permanent homes, but there are plenty more healthy, happy, good natured cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs and birds at the SPCA looking for someone to love.
If you're considering a pet – please visit the SPCA first.
Please note: this essay contains some surgical images.

Q: What do you recommend to pressure flush clean our maple sap lines?
A: We would recommend using a 1% solution of Citranox® Liquid Acid Cleaner and Detergent (1.25 oz/gal or 10 mL/L) to pressure flush your maple sap lines. Maple sap is traditionally a couple percent sugar with trace solids of amino and organic acids, nitrogen compounds and other substances.
The mild acid Citranox detergent should break down disaccharide sugars in to more soluble monosaccharide sugars and make them easier to rinse away. The sugars are typically what is going to be the difficult-to-clean compound.
Start by flushing with a 1% Citranox solution followed by a potable water rinse. Elevation in the temperature should expedite the cleaning process.

At the two ends inside the column are special frits that keep the stationary phase from moving, and outside are fittings that allow the connection with high-pressure tubing.
However, the luminescent molecules are not very common, and usually they are obtained by post-column derivatization with proper reagents. Refractive Index Detectors Refractive index detection (RI or RID) is another common technique in HPLC. Due to the modification of the refractive index of a solution as a function of the concentration of the solute, RI can be used for the quantitation of a variety of analytes. 11. This detector is based on the deviation of the direction of a light beam when passing under an angle from one medium to a medium with a different refractive index.
The chemical properties of the particles forming the stationary phase include (1) the chemical nature of the active surface, (2) chemical stability, (3) surface reactivity, and (4) density and distribution of surface reactive centers. The nature of stationary phases used in various analyses is fully discussed further in this book (see Chapter 6). In some systems, more than one chromatographic column is necessary for achieving the desired separation. In size exclusion chromatography, for example, two to four columns may be connected in series.

Detectives Flynn (Kristin Lehman of Judging Amy, The Killing) and Vega (Louis Ferreira of SGU Stargate Universe, Missing) identify the vehicle-turned murder weapon almost immediately and take the boyfriend, Kevin West (Anthony Konechny) into custody. West, whose brains have yet to catch up with his biceps, has his own apartment, and a life that revolves around nailing his girlfriend and playing with his car (not in that order), is an easy target. Jacobs, ever the faithful Greenwood family friend, pressures Staff Sergeant Boyd Bloom (Jamaican-born, Canadian-bred Roger R. Cross,Arrow and 24) to put the heat on Flynn and Vega for a swift close before the truth surfaces. Hmm, typical CYA maneuver.
Every crime procedural has their own angle, be it relentless evidence collection and interpretation, powerful observational skills, or brilliant forensic anthropology—and sometimes all the above, but in a different location: Las Vegas, Miami, New York, for example. Motive takes a sideways approach as evidenced by Detective Flynn's comment to Vega, "Let's forget about the who—and focus on the why." In doing so, a motive is uncovered, suspects are eliminated, and the true murderous impetus is revealed along with its perpetrator. Motive's premise is that the crux of any crime is the nasty life-threatening, career-ending secrets the killers are desperately determined to hide—even to the point of committing murder.
So, what would compel a viewer to sit through eleven more episodes of Motive's freshman season? Good acting, to start. The relationship between Detectives Flynn and Vega, (who exudes the confidence and subtle sexiness of one such as Armand Asante, by the way), is not the center of this drama, though their easy banter and amused cajoling of each other is a pleasure to watch. An example:
Flynn: When you're seventeen, yours is the only opinion that matters.
Vega: I was never a seventeen-year-old girl.
Flynn: Well, I was.
Vega: Yes, I know you were—a very long time ago.
Flynn, holding up a piece of paper to shield her hand as she flips Vega the bird: "Guess many fingers am I holding up?"
Neither are the forensics served up as the main course. My favorite line so far this season flies in the face of what all the other procedurals seem to be enamored of. During an interrogation, Flynn tosses off, "The forensics guys are doing their thing with all their stuff." How many fingers do you think she was holding up toward Las Vegas, Miami, and New York that time?
Two other compelling reasons to continue watching are more personal. We live in a world where seemingly innocuous people are hiding big ugly secrets, which sometimes go terribly wrong—as they always do each episode. Last week's case of the boy with the manifesto was reminiscent of the Unibomber and the Sandy Hook tragedy. This week's case brings to mind Sandusky's atrocious covert activities while assistant coach at Penn State. We all have dark spots in our personalities or pesky skeletons in our closets. What I want to know is—what makes a person go over the edge like these did. What turns fear into a Motive?
In next week's episode, 'Pushover', Crewson, a mild-mannered cruise ship customs agent is compelled by his lover, a waitress at Crewson's greasy spoon, to kill a limousine driver. Why? You'll have to tune in THURSDAY, MAY 30 (9:00-10:01 p.m., ET) on ABC to find out.

Built on land requisitioned by the War Department in 1942, RAF Metheringham was built as a standard layout, temporary wartime airfield with 3 concrete runways and accommodation for over 2000 personnel in a County that offered the near perfect conditions for airfields to strike at Germany. Finally finished in October 1943 it was assigned to 5 Group Bomber Command.
Lancaster bombers from 106 Squadron Royal Air Force, transferring from RAF Syerston arrived just in time for the Battle of Berlin and undertook their first mission from the incomplete station on 18th November 1943. The squadron was destined to remain at Metheringham until February 1946, and was the only operational unit based there during hostilities.
By the end of the Second World War, 106 Squadron had suffered the loss of 187 aircraft and 995 airmen killed on operations, but had served with distinction during it's short time based at Metheringham and amassed many decorations including a Victoria Cross awarded to Flight Engineer Sgt Norman Jackson.
After VE Day, 467 Squadron, Royal Australian Air Force arrived to train with 106 Squadron for operations in the Far East, but with the surrender of Japan in August 1945, 467 Squadron was quickly disbanded and replaced with 189 Squadron RAF, which in turn was soon stood down. 106 Squadron remained operational until February 1946 when this too was disbanded and Metheringham was closed to flying soon after.
Although remaining in a fairly complete state until the early 1950s, the hangars and most of the domestic site buildings were demolished by the end of the next decade and the airfield land had been sold and returned to agriculture.
Today, several of the former technical site buildings remain in use for commercial purposes and the former ration store is now a museum devoted to Bomber Command's wartime occupation of the site. The outline of the airfield is also still visible and sections of the disused runways are in use as public highways after being commissioned to reinstate two minor roads closed during the airfield construction. A memorial commemorating the airfield can also be found on the aircraft perimeter track.

Christmas Snapshots
I truly hope that all of you had a wonderful, family-filled, joyful Christmas celebrating the birth of our Saviour, Jesus Christ. Seth and I spent Christmas day in our home and our parents and siblings came to us. I was planning on doing a photo an hour post as my Christmas day post but I was so very tired and just a tad out of it on Wednesday so I didn't take nearly as many photos as I had hoped but here are a few snapshots of the things that I will remember from the day.
I've finally started showing! My baby belly is sticking out just a little bit (I'm glad it's growing out front instead of pretty much everywhere else ha).
For the first time I made cinnamon rolls from scratch! Um...new favorite thing to bake! If I ever own my own bakery I'd make sure we made cinnamon rolls fresh every morning.
We got Seth's dad a French Press for Christmas so Seth gave a lesson on how to make French Press.
In between family visits we cuddled on the couch and watched movies on Seth's new BluRay player. Aren't my socks awesome? Sethy got them for me because my feet are always freezing.
What moments will you remember from your Christmas celebrations this year?

Byfuglien scores late as Winnipeg Jets beat Calgary Flames 3-1NHL.com @NHLdotcom
WINNIPEG - Dustin Byfuglien scored the game-winner with 1:28 remaining in regulation time to lift the Winnipeg Jets to a 3-1 victory over the Calgary Flames on Friday.
Byfuglien forced a turnover, took a pass and went around Flames defenceman Dennis Wideman and beat Karri Ramo with a sharp-angle, low shot.
Calgary coach Bob Hartley challenged the goal to see if Byfuglien was offside, but the goal stood.
Blake Wheeler added an empty-net goal at 19:07, the 150th of his career, and leads the Jets with seven points. Bryan Little also had a goal and assist for Winnipeg. (4-1-0).
Mikael Backlund scored for Calgary (1-3-0).
Ondrej Pavelec made 19 saves for Winnipeg. Ramo stopped 27 of the 29 shots he faced for the Flames.
Calgary scored 3:38 into the first period when Sam Bennett's wrap-around bounced off Pavelec to Backlund in front of the net and he flipped the puck in for his first goal of the season.
The Flames outshot the Jets 11-8 in the first, with each club having a power play.
Little tied it 1-1 with his third goal of the season at 8:12 of the second when Wheeler shot the puck to the front of the crease and it deflected off Little's leg in behind Ramo.
The Jets went on a four-minute power play late in the second after Josh Jooris got a double minor for high-sticking.
The penalty carried over into the third and finished with the Jets getting three shots on goal. Centre Mark Scheifele had the best chance, but Ramo swept the puck away from behind him to preserve the tie.
The Flames didn't have a shot on goal for more than 20 minutes, ending the slump at 11:06 of the third.
Winnipeg was 0 for 4 on the power play as Calgary went scoreless on two chances with the man advantage.
The game was the first of six straight at home for Winnipeg. St. Louis visits on Sunday. Calgary returns home for three games, starting Saturday against Edmonton.

Thursday was IPA Day, and I celebrated with a bottle share among friends, hosted by Eric of BR Beer Scene. This celebration of hoppy beers was wonderful, and we all got to try some great IPAs. Here's the list:
- Brasserie Ducote Pliny the Toddler
- Running Monk Chainsaw Unicorn
- Running Monk Citrattack!
- Nøgne Ø Two Captains
- Karbach Roshambo Belgian IPA
- Straight to Ale Gorillanaut IIPA
- Flying Fish Exit 16 Wild Rice DIPA
- Newburyport Greenhead IPA
- Tallgrass Ethos
- Southern Star Valkyrie
- New England Brewing Ghandi-Bot
- Beer Here Dark Hops
- Bear Republic Black Racer
- Uinta Cahoots Double Rye IPA
- Maine Beer Company Lunch
- Knee Deep Simtra Triple IPA
- Clown Shoes Galactica
- Ithaca Flower Power
- Avery Maharaja
- Russian River Pliny the Elder
- The Alchemist Heady Topper
Obviously, Heady Topper and Pliny the Elder were the stars of the show. But there were some other great ones as well. I really enjoyed that Ghandi-Bot and Lunch, and big thanks to my buddy Dan for bringing them back from his recent trip to the northeast. The Ghandi-Bot was filled straight from the brite tank last week into a mini-growler. The cap was tightened with pliers and electrical tape was used to seal it. It poured with plenty of carbonation, and was wonderful.
The Ithaca Flower Power was once again fantastic, as was the Uinta Cahoots. There were a couple of disappointments though, as the Gorillanaut was just a hot mess, the Valkyrie didn't seem like the same beer that it was when it was the Pro-Am last year, and the Simtra tasted like garlic and onions and just didn't live up to the hype.
I was very pleased with my two homebrews, and I think they were received well. The Chainsaw Unicorn was a beer based on Pliny the Elder, but I doubled the dry hops that were called for and added Citra hops into the mix. I kegged it the previous night and filled a growler just before heading over there. The Citrattack! has been in my kegerator for a week, and it's got a wonderful aroma.
All told, it was a great way to celebrate IPA Day. What did you do for IPA Day?

Turkey's Erdogan Snubs U.S. National Security Adviser, Hammers Trump's Syria Policy (AUDIO INTERVIEW)
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan at the last minute nixed a planned meeting with United States National Security Adviser John Bolton, who earlier had stated that the White House has no timetable for withdrawing American troops from northern Syria and might choose to maintain a military presence at the al-Tanf base straddling the borders of Iraq and Jordan. Bolton was in Ankara to seek guarantees from Erdogan to not launch a campaign against U.S.-backed Kurdish YPG units that have been the predominant force on the ground fighting the Islamic State but which the Turkish government considers an offshoot of the banned PKK. Erdogan has reacted with fury to the Trump administration's apparent backtrack on a proposed immediate drawdown of American soldiers from Syria, a move the U.S. president decided to undertake during a phone conversation with his Turkish counterpart. The decision shocked American allies in the region and evoked strong criticism in Washington, including from within the Republican Party and even from cabinet members. Approximately 30 percent of Syria presently is controlled by a YPG-led alliance of Kurdish and Arab forces.
The Media Line spoke about the issue in greater detail with Dr. Vehbi Baysan, a lecturer at Ibn Haldun University in Istanbul.

Sholom Rubashkin was arrested for the first time on October 30, 2008, on a complaint charging him with immigration-related crimes. He was released on severe bail conditions that, to our knowledge, have never been demanded of an employer charged with an immigration violation – a $1 million bond and an ankle bracelet with electronic monitoring.
On November 14, 2008, Appellant was arrested again, this time on bank-fraud charges. The new charges alleged that he had inflated the value of the collateral for the FBBC loan and falsely certified to the bank that Agriprocessors was complying with all laws even though the company was employing undocumented aliens.
The prosecutors opposed release on bail and claimed that since Appellant was Jewish there was a risk he would flee to Israel and could not be brought back because of Israel's "Law of Return.†Indeed, the magistrate judge denied Mr. Rubashkin bail.
Subsequently, the American Defamation League (ADL), American Jewish Congress (AJC) and Agudath Israel of America sent letters to the US Attorney General, Michael Mukasey, protesting this insulting position, which in essence is saying that all Jews are a flight risk. Additionally, a number of distinguished rabbis convened at the Dubuque County Jail to decry this position. They were Rabbi David Zwiebel, Agudath Israel of America; Rabbi Pesach Lerner, National Council of Young Israel; Rabbi Yaakov Wasser, Rabbinical Council of America; Rabbi Gershon Tannenbaum, Rabbinical Alliance of America, Igud Horabbonim; Rabbi Moshe Elefant, Orthodox Union and Rabbi Shimon Hecht, National Committee for Furtherance of Jewish Education. It was extremely rare that so many high profile Jewish leaders convene in one place for a cause.
Sholom remained in jail for 76 days until the district judge reversed that decision. In reversing the magistrate judge, the district court emphasized that Mr. Rubashkin's "involvement in the community extends beyond Agriprocessors, Inc. to local religious and educational institutions,†many of which he had personally "founded.†The court also cited Appellant's "history of leadership and charity†and observed that the community's support for him – which included offers by individuals to pledge their home equity as security for his release – was "unprecedented.â€

We Are the Audience Too: Responsibility As Creators
© Rhianon Elan Gutierrez
Written in honor of the 20th Anniversary of the Americans With Disabilities Act
Originally published by the Producers Guild of America Diversity
July 26, 2010
I want to pose this question: who do you want to see your work? If you answer "the larger public", you know it's not as simple as it sounds. It involves a lot of thought, paper, and money than most people would think. We know that there many different types of people who make up an audience. Let's say that there are two hundred people in a theatre, and one of them is deaf. This person, for years, has never seen a captioned film in theaters but loves cinema so much that s/he is willing to look past that. Over twenty years ago, captioned English language spoken films were not standard in theaters. Silent films were accessible to the deaf and hard of hearing in the pre-talkie era. Today, there are many theaters and of course television sets in the United States that make captions available to those who are deaf and hard of hearing. There are several search engines where one can find captioned films, such as Captionfish, which lists to the best of its knowledge all captioned films and the theaters where they are playing. It appears that we have advanced, but the reality is that there is often the one person of two hundred who is watching an independent film that has yet to be captioned, if at all. It's too easy to say that they could wait later, rent the film, buy the film, or watch another film that's captioned. They can, but they shouldn't. Audience members have the right to choose the films they want to see and when they want to see them. We know that the size of audiences says a lot about the power of the film, its team, and its marketing. How about its accessibility?
Today is the anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, passed on July 26, 1990. The efforts of those before, during, and since its passage have made it possible for people like myself to thrive in media. I am a filmmaker and I have a hearing loss. I understand both sides of the experience: as a creator and as an audience member.
I know how difficult it is to raise money to have the equipment you need, the actors you want, the location that's beautiful, and the crew you know you need to feed and pay. I'm passionate about the process but what makes it challenging (and ultimately more rewarding) is the responsibilities that I have not only to my goals, my craft, and to my team, but to my audience. During the process of making my films and even afterwards, I make a commitment to be respectful of the access and communication needs and abilities of my cast and crew. I learn new things every day from them and about them. When it comes to my audience, I think about the one person of two hundred. It's easy to forget this person, but I've been this person so I know that I must remind myself of those moments. I love the experience of making films and I especially love to see the impact that my films have on others and the difference that it makes when they can follow the story. I know I am not alone in sharing this sentiment.
Visual storytelling speaks volumes about the human experience, and why would it continue to be a form of expression if people did not want to create, enjoy, or learn from it? As creators, we have a responsibility to the process of creating, but we also have a responsibility to who sees the film. We know there are distributors, investors, theaters, and various others who are responsible for what, where, when, and how we see the film or show. We also know that audience members have the responsibility to speak up if they feel excluded or misrepresented. However, I am reaching out to my fellow creators to say: you have that voice. You are manifesting stories. You know who you want to see your work. Yes, it is true that the Americans with Disabilities Act and other pieces of legislation enforce laws to make your work seen and heard, but a law is not enough. Regardless of where we stand or work in the industry, we have made a commitment to the process and end product, and we must continue to speak up about making our work accessible during and after creating our work, even to that one person. What are you going to do about it?

The Voyage of the Neptune Jade: Transnational Labour Solidarity and the Obstacles of Domestic Law
Published as Chapter 19 in Labour Law in an Era of Globalization: Transformative Practices and Possibilities, Joanne Conaghan, Richard Michael Fischl & Karl Klare, eds.
This chapter recounts the troubled voyage of the Neptune Jade, a cargo ship caught in the midst of a dockworkers' dispute that began in Britain but attracted expressions of solidarity from dockworkers all over the world. It deploys the image of the endlessly voyaging Neptune Jade as a metaphor for the relentless search for solidarity in the midst of changing and highly unpredictable economic and political seas. Why should strikes aimed at supporting workers elsewhere not be deemed to involve basic rights? If a nation privileges political speech, why are expressions of views, voiced by withholding labour, not considered worthy of protection? The poignant absurdity to which this issue gives rise is illustrated by US laws protection of the right of unions to handbill consumers even though action is secondary, on the ground that it is protected by the First Amendment.

I must tell you about almost losing our passports. When staying in Paisley, we made sure our passports were safely held in the Hotel's safe. They were still safely there after we checked out and had travelled many hours down to England. However there is nothing that induces instant insomnia so much as to be awakened by husband at 4 am swearing: "Oh S***! I forgot to pick up the passports before we left!". Problem was solved next morning by phoning the hotel and asking them to send them by registered post to our next port of call – the Broxbourne based Lea Valley Boat Hire company. Bless them, they posted them off that day, then phoned us to say they were in the hands of the Royal Mail and would be delivered in good time for us to collect them. Disaster averted.Whew.
We then had three visits to different relatives in two days which was a nice experience. All were Peter's relatives – the first were some Becketts living in Norfolk who kindly loaned us an album of old family photos, and some other Leylands who also lived nearby. All very friendly folk pleased to meet for the first time some of the family from the other side of the world. The last visit was to Bert & Win (cousins of Peter's father) whom we have known and visited for quite a number of years. Bert has a wicked sense of humour and it is always fun to spend some time and share a meal with him and Win.
Leaving Hertford and travelling back along the canal, we passed many other narrowboats – some moored and others that were travelling the canals and so well maintained they were the homes of some people. One couple cruised the canals of England during the summer months from May to September, then left their narrowboat for winter and went to India for a few months. They had been living this way for 7 years!
Tomorrow we're off to Guernsey!

Kimbo Slice – TUF 10By

I just read the news that Kimbo will be a fighter on the 10th season of the reality show "The Ultimate Fighter". I find this news very interesting.
I haven't watched the show for several years, mostly because I find it hard to watch fighters that are not very skilled (not all of them but many) get on the show and often dominate much of the airtime because of their craziness and unpredictable behaviour. I'd rather spend my time renting the pay per views and watching the fight nights on spike where the fighters are usually more established.
With Kimbo set to take part in the 10th season of the show, I may check it out again. I'm guessing he's going to be part of some interesting situations during his stay at the TUF house.
What do you think?
Facebook Comments
I have been watching Kimbo for years. After his last fight I would like to see how he comes back. I will be watching for sure.
In all of his interviews he seems like a nice, laid back guy. It will be nice for fighters to get some air time on the show that aren't drama queens.

EDLD 5370 Reading Reflection for Technology Facilitator Standard I
We find that in Chapter One, Technology Operations and Concepts, that computer usage in itself is a higher thinking process that incorporates multiple factors for even a simple task. educators must keep up in order to continue to teach students and other staff changes in technology related to their work. One thing that is highly recommended is that we train teachers on the basics of technology instead of using the technology for curriculum purposes. In essence teach a technology to the teachers and let the teachers discover how it can be used. "Teachers at intermediate or advanced levels of understanding have needs that are different those of novice users and cannot be expected to benefit equally from the same training experiences" (Redish and Williamson, 2009).
Researchers speculate that the teachers with the lowest levels of technology proficiency are likely serving some of the nation's highest-need students (Market Data Retreival, 2004). From what I have learned from chapter one is that technology leaders need to have a proficient understanding of technology as well as be able to build proficiency among fellow staff members. I find this requires a unique position. Many technology people are not quite personable. A good technology person will have the understanding and communication skills of a teacher and the knowledge, skillset, and awareness of a person who would work in the technology department. This technology leader will work in a one to one or small group basis training educators and staff how to use technology provided. Some staff will need more advanced training while some will need basic training.
I think about how I will interact with teachers from now on. My background has given me a strong knowledge of technology, but we must request that other teachers have an above average knowledge as well. If a teacher is going to teach and access some form of technology as part of their daily work environment they must be able to utilize the technology. This leads us into Standard II in which teachers should understand technology in order to teach and integrate technology into their lessons.

They're not just in Oregon.
University students from Saudi Arabia have vanished while facing criminal charges here and in at least seven other states as well as Canada — evidence that a growing number of defendants from the wealthy Persian Gulf kingdom have fled justice in the United States.
There are likely more to be discovered.
The Oregonian/OregonLive uncovered multiple examples in Oregon and began searching other states in late January. We've found similar cases in Montana, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Utah, Washington and Wisconsin.
We also found two cases in Nova Scotia: Saudi students in two separate incidents skipped bail and disappeared after being accused of sexual assault.
[Find complete coverage of our ongoing investigative series here]
In Oregon, seven cases involved Saudi nationals who vanished before they faced trial or completed their jail sentence: two accused rapists; a pair of suspected hit-and-run drivers; one man accused of having a trove of child pornography on his computer; one man suspected of sexual assault, and; one man accused of carrying a loaded, illegally purchased firearm in downtown Portland.
All were young men studying at a public college or university in Oregon with assistance from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia at the time of their arrest.
In at least four of those cases, the Saudi government paid the defendant's bail and legal fees. Three surrendered their passports. Some have been tracked back to Saudi Arabia.
The revelations have generated national attention and prompted Oregon U.S. Sens. Jeff Merkley and Ron Wyden to seek answers on Capitol Hill.
Our investigation into new cases around the country is a work in progress. Court records, police reports, news stories, tips and interviews will form the basis of our reporting. We will be publishing what we find in real time, so please check back for regular updates.
Here's what we know so far. Got a tip? Send it.
Abdulrahman Sameer Noorah appears during his arraignment in Portland on Aug. 22, 2016. His lawyer Ginger Mooney, pictured, has represented a number of Saudi students facing criminal charges in Oregon.
Mohammed Zuraibi Al-Zoabi
Nova Scotia, Canada
Disappeared: December 2018
Mohammed Zuraibi Al-Zoabi was a student at Cape Breton University when he faced numerous charges of sexual assault, assault and forcible confinement of a woman, with the alleged incidents occurring between 2015 and 2017, according to The Chronicle Herald newspaper in Halifax. According to the Star Halifax newspaper, Al-Zoabi last year received $37,500 of his bail from the Saudi Embassy in Ottawa. In early December, a Canadian sheriff tried to find Al-Zoabi, then 28, the newspaper reported, but he was nowhere to be found. His attorney, David Ianetti, told authorities the Saudi man had "fled the country some time ago," according to court documents. Police had previously seized his passport.
Abdulrahman Sameer Noorah
Multnomah County, Oregon
Disappeared: June 2017
Portland police arrested Abdulrahman Sameer Noorah, then 20, in the fatal hit-and-run of Fallon Smart, 15, in August 2016. He faced charges of first-degree manslaughter and felony-hit-and run. After his arrest, the Saudi Consulate in Los Angeles retained private defense attorneys Ginger Mooney and David McDonald to work on Noorah's case and paid his bail, set at $1 million, according to court records and prosecutors. He turned over his passport to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security as a condition of his release. He was placed under house arrest, required to wear an electronic monitoring bracelet on his ankle and allowed to take classes at Portland Community College. Two weeks before his June 2017 trial, Noorah disappeared. Officials with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and U.S. Marshals Service now believe he left his Southeast Portland neighborhood in a black SUV, cut his ankle monitor and later used an illicit passport and private plane — likely provided by the Saudi government — to flee the country. In July 2018, more than 13 months after he first disappeared, the Saudis contacted Homeland Security to inform the agency that Noorah was back home. [Read the full story here]

|V3.1 in the enclosure. Ignore the external speaker--it's a vestige. Ready to tidy up for V4.
As I said in my last post on this project, all that was left to do was tidy up the connections and enclose the electronics. I decided that the enclosure I was using was too big. The reason it was too big was that I had the project on a breadboard instead of soldering the components to a PCB. I have always wondered why places like Radio Shack that sell enclosures and PCBs don't sell PCBs that fit in the enclosures--with mounting holes and screws. So, I went looking and found this enclosure with matching PCB and a battery compartment. A little pricey, but good quality and they have a variety of sizes and features. (I'm using the term PCB to include proto boards here.) Follow-up note: I found that the soldering pads on the pcb were insufficient. I'll accept blame for my soldering technique, but I had more trouble with this than any other I've worked with.
Since the new enclosure was a little smaller, I decided to use an +Arduino Pro Mini (actually an Arducam clone) instead of the +Adafruit Industries Pro Trinket. It's a little smaller, and I had a few in inventory. It needs an FTDI to serial module to program, but I was using one anyway for the Trinket to be able to use the serial monitor.
The code compiled with no changes. (See link to last post in opening sentence to see code.) In order to upload to the board, the IDE required some changes (to point to the right board--Nano, not mini), and the USB Port needed a tweak in Windows Device Manager (I'm on Windows 10). Arduino.cc has a clear and concise getting started article describing this better than I can.
Note that the interrupt code also works as-is. I need to work on the program to make the sleep more useful. As you can see in the video (the blue LED is on when it's sleeping), it doesn't sleep much, I'm using the Echo pin on the HC-SR04 sensor to wake it up. I put it to sleep at the top of the loop, then wait for Echo to go LOW or HIGH. It works the same either way, at least to the naked eye.
I used LOW because IDLE is the only mode that can be woken from anything other than LOW, and I wanted to be able to play with other modes. I'm thinking about using an inverter so I can set the interrupt on LOW, but have the pin go LOW when the Echo pin goes HIGH. +Home DIY Electronics has a good article on interrupts and the HC-SR04.
Since the sensor is ranging constantly, it wakes up pretty quickly. If I try to put it in power down mode, it does not wake up (maybe because the sensor shuts down?): The LED indicating sleep stays on and no gesture will wake it up. There are 5 sleep modes and these are only the 2 extremes. I will play with some of the intermediate modes--next year, or the next time I'm playing with interrupts on an AVR board.
- Test the mini
Since I changed boards, I needed to upload the code, wire the circuit on a breadboard, and test. As described above, all was well.
- Prep the enclosure
In this design, the speaker and the battery are now inside the enclosure, I only need holes to bring in wires from the switch and from the HC-SR04. I also drilled 7 holes to let the sound out, places where I planned to put the speaker.
- Design the board layout
I needed to mount the Pro Mini, then find room for the amplifier and Micro SD Reader. This required some planning, so I simulated with header pins on the PCB and marked where I would place the components. All the components had male headers attached, because I originally set set this up for a breadboard, so I soldered the headers to the printed side of the board.
- Wire the busses
I created power and ground busses on the inside edge of the board, next to the battery, using tinned copper bus wire. The board has pairs of adjacent rows of connected holes, so I used two of these pairs (one row for each bus, each adjacent row for connections to the circuit). The power rail is supplied from the voltage regulator circuit 5V output, and the ground from the 9V battery's negative lead. The positive lead from the battery goes to a 2-wire JST connector, which mates to another connector with leads going to a toggle switch. The other lead from the case (with the + from the battery) is the 9V input to the voltage regulator.
- Test the Voltage Regulator Circuit
Since I have habit of messing up connections, and power is a key part of this, I wanted to be sure that I was getting 5V out of this part of the circuit before completing the soldering. When I got it right (after some stupid soldering tricks), I was ready to move on.
- Mount the components
All the components had male headers attached, because I originally set set this up for a breadboard, so I soldered the headers to the printed side of the board. I also added an LED and resistor for visual representation of the sleep mode (the code for this was already included, so what the heck).
- Test the circuit
Before fastening the circuit board to the enclosure, make sure everything works. Here's where I ran into trouble. I worked the continuity function of my multi-meter extensively. I thought I had everything in order, but it failed. I went back to a version of the sketch that had serial commands for testing in it, and saw that the SD board was not initializing. I rechecked the connections, checked the SD card to see if it could be read, and then got drastic: clipped the jumpers from the mini to the SD reader, and connected them via alligator leads to another reader. Still not initializing, so I was pretty sure it was my connections. One more continuity test revealed a problem with one of the jumpers. I re-soldered, put it back together, and it worked. Stupid soldering tricks, indeed!
- Put it in the box
See photo at the top of this post. Enclosing was a matter of adding screws in the prepared holes to secure the PCB, then passing the 4 wires to the HC-SR04 through one hole and the battery connection through another, position the speaker under the holes, and closing the box.

Freddy Charley
My father is deceased, survived by my mother who weaves Yei-bi-chei rugs. My parents brought us up with Navajo Born and raised in Shiprock, New Mexico. Grew up among ten siblings, 3 older traditions and at the same time encouraged us to get a good education.
Graduated in 1981 from Shiprock High School then moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico. Took Diesel mechanic classes at TVI and graduated in 1984. Worked in the field of Diesel mechanic for about ten years. Worked at the same time practicing how to make and buff jewelry.
I met my wife Rena in 1984 and now we have 3 boys' ages 17, 11, and 15 months old. Rena got me into the jewelry business because her family was in the jewelry business doing piecework .
I got started by buffing and polishing for my mother-in-law. Later I got a buffing job and learned how the pieces were put together. Soon I worked my way up to a silversmith position with my welding skills and my artistic talents. I get my ideas from attending different tribal dances and going to all sorts of art shows. My favorite pieces are the 3 dimensional one-of-a-kind kachinas among contemporary jewelry. I also work with gold and learning how to perfect in-lay work. Making masters for casting is also my specialty.
