Jillian Forte
Executive Chef
I have been lucky to have spent the majority of my 14 years as a practicing Foodie in small chef-owned restaurants. This has given me a discriminating palate and exposed me to a variety of ingredients and cooking styles. I have a thick passport with stamps from as far away as Morroco and Israel, to Costa Rica, Mexico, and the UK. Throughout my travels I consumed numerous local culinary favorites.
All this travel and time has given my culinary skills a wide range, from Classic French techniques to Cuba Cuisine to Asian fusion not to mention my quirky twists on the down home American fare. My love of gardening and fresh herbs continues to inspire me to create dishes that are local ingredient centered and seasonal. They can feature ramps one week, Morels the next, right on down to turnips and Delicata in the fall.
A strong belief in "right livelihood" has naturally lead me to create enduring relationships with farmers who grow organic produce and humanely raised animals.
I love working At Sara's Table Chester Creek Cafe in part because they allowed the space for me to create my dream dining experience. An evening of touring a farm then sitting down at a community table for a four course dinner, created from the farms offerings, wine pairing and music. What could be better than fabulous food, great wine and friends!

Amanda Kral
Graphic Designer
I started working at At Sara's Table/Chester Creek Cafe in October 0f 2010 as a part-time server while attending the University of Minnesota, Duluth as a graphic arts undergraduate. Through my college years I slowly moved my way in becoming a bartender and barista as well. Once I graduated in July 2014, I got offered a new position to become the graphic designer for the restaurant. I was so excited to continue working at the restaurant that supported me through college and to do what I love, art.

Peter Ravinsky
Former Kitchen Manager - Current Maintenance & All-Around Super Fixit Man
In the early 1990's Barbara Neubert bought an old trailer and converted it into a traveling espresso shop. That was the beginning of At Sara's Table. The name came from a novel Barb had written when she was recovering from a long illness. For a couple of summers she and her partner Mary Ann Rish traveled around Minnesota and Wisconsin to events and fairs and began to build a reputation. Eventually, the couple decided they wanted a more permanent home. A small space in a building that had been a restaurant in the '20s and '30s was available in the 700 block of East Superior Street in Duluth and Barb rented it. With a very small budget they converted it into a cozy coffee and book shop.
Eventually Mary Ann left the business and Barbara developed a new partnership with Carla Blumberg, who had come to Duluth from Texas. Carla had owned a restaurant in Austin and believed that the coffee shop could be successful in a larger venue with an expanded menu. By chance Barb happened to see a for sale sign on the old Taran's Food Market and the couple bought it.
Barb and Carla chose Holm Construction for the restaurant project because they had been willing to build the Duluth Women's Building. The couple worked with the contractor and did a lot of demolition and salvaging of lumber that was to be used in the new building. The wooden ceiling in the front dining room is made with boards from an old walk-in cooler that was in the grocery basement. The tin ceiling in the rear dining room is from the original ceiling found above the suspended grocery ceiling. The booths, tables, wait-station and bookshelves are all made from salvaged lumber.
The restaurant opened in late 2002 and has become a fixture in the Chester Park Neighborhood. Getting a new business off the ground is difficult and the early days were rugged but now operations are smoother. Ever since the beginning the business has wanted to use products that are locally and seasonally produced to hand make healthy and delicious food from scratch. There have been many willing hands helping out over the years. Worthy of mention are:
Michael Stanitus – who formulated our original menu and trained out staff at the very beginning
Bruce Wallis – who for many years headed up the dinner service
Kelly Dowell – the original front of house manager who shaped out systems
Pete Ravinsky – long time breakfast and lunch guru
Jillian Forte – the current kitchen manager who has really made us into what we now are
Avery Cassar – Jill's assistant
Sara Runholt – head server and graphic whiz
Mike Fudala – bookkeeper and accountant extraordinaire
Rita Bergstedt and Amy Nakamura – running our garden operation
And many, many others to whom Barb and Carla are grateful.
Barb and Carla feel blessed and grateful.

A flashy American fugitive who fled to Mexico to avoid arrest for leading a Houston-based drug-trafficking organization, has finally been returned to the United States, officials said.
Raul Sergio Madrigal was flown from Mexico to Chicago, and is expected to be brought before a federal judge in
Houston next week, officials said Friday. He'd been on the run since at least 2009, after leaving town as authorities prepared federal charges against him and more than a dozen of other defendants.
Madrigal was first caught in May at the airport near the northern industrial city of Monterrey. He was snared there by FBI, Drug Enforcement Administration agents and their Mexican counterparts working on a anonymous tip submitted to the stophoustongangs.org Web site, FBI Agent Shauna Dunlap said.
"Madrigal was one of the original Top Ten Most Wanted Gang Fugitives, that were featured on that Web site," Dunlap said of the site that was launched in April 2012.
When he was allegedly running a cocaine-trafficking operation, Madrigal was affiliated with the massive Houstone Tango Blast gang and had several high end sports cars that were confiscated by federal agents.
Madrigal had been on the run since 2009 before the Web campaign started. He didn't last two months once the Web site launched the Most Wanted Gangster program, in which he was featured. Madrigal reportedly did not fight being sent back to the United States to face charges.

Forty-six common brains, segmented in to the most important lobes, also are integrated. The atlas relies on a voxel-rendering procedure built within the author's laboratory that enables the reconstruction of the mind in 3 dimensions. The method allows the id of significant sulci and gyri with concerning the similar measure of precision that may be completed on the post-mortem desk. the quantity comprises 50 pages of colour illustrations. the second one variation of this atlas bargains fullyyt new photographs, all from new mind specimens. just like the first variation, it is going to turn out to be an important software for neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuroradiologists, psychiatrists, and neuroscientists, in addition to clinical and neuroscience scholars.

This is the JLJLbrain of a 34-year-old, fully right-handed man of Asian descent. The reason for depicting a second brachicephalic brain is that brachicephalic brains vary quite considerably among themselves. The difference between Dolicho and Brachi-2 is even more pronounced than that between Dolicho and Brachi-1.
The segment of the superior temporal gyrus posterior to Heschl's gyrus is the planum temporale (PT), and in the left hemisphere it is part of Wernicke's area. The sector anterior to the Heschl's gyrus is the planum polare. Both plana are constituted by auditory association cortex (Brodmann's field 22). The inferior temporal sulcus is more difficult to identify because of its many segments. However, both the left hemisphere of Dolicho and the right hemisphere of Brain-E display a long and continuous inferior temporal sulcus.

So, let's just say you decided to clean out your car. I know, disgusting, but you did decide to do it. In digging around in that heap, you amass a small cash of coins tainted with all manner of fast food and gas station residue. Now the car is clean, the dash is wiped down, and the carpets are vacuumed. What do you do with that Cheetos bag full of jingle?
- You could buy a beverage and a bag of snack food to christen the newly cleaned back floorboard. X
- You could purchase a couple of your favorite hits from Zamfir, Master of the Pan flute and slip into your Tumnus outfit. X
- OR, you could partner with a missionary to reach people in a remote part of the world. YES
For a Friend focuses on the relational ministry of missionaries all over the world. What is relational ministry and giving? It is–
sharing the gospel over cups of coffee, small meals, pairs of shoes, and much, much more. These things provide a solid ground for missionaries to share the gospel of Jesus Christ. This is what relational giving is all about.
Often, missionaries don't have funds set aside for such gifts, so it comes out of their general budget. By providing specific gifts that match missionaries' needs, givers have the privilege of seeing direct blessings that result from even the smallest financial gifts.
The vision of For a Friend is to motivate those 70 percent of American Church-goers who have never given financially to support world missions. Many feel like their small gifts won't make a difference and hope to start giving "when they have more." For a Friend specializes in listing gifts from $5 to $20 so that virtually anyone can afford to partner with a missionary. With For a Friend donors can use their small gifts and see the tangible blessings they provide to people in need.
In the interest of transparency I will tell you I do not work for For a Friend but we do have a For a Friend profile for our mission work. However, I would encourage you to surf through the missionary log at For a Friend. Take a look at some of the great stuff happening out their with lint-free pocket change.
I know not every mission project is a good fit for every partner, so click on over and do some missionary shopping. Find a work you identify with and bookmark their page. Then, head out to sift through the couch cushions, washing machine filter and stored winter clothes for some coins to turn into a relational community for Him.
Have you ever thought your gift or ability was too small to matter?

*Dr & Herbs (part 2) - depression is all about stagnated Qi, you know
Dr & Herbs - a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) shop, trading on a high street near you - is one of my favourite advertisers.
UPDATE, 28 Apr: ASA say "Given that we have an established position on ads that refer to serious medical conditions such as depression in this way I've passed the case to our Compliance team, which will follow it up."
In one of their flyers (available here and here) they make some odd claims about a possible treatment for depression.
I'd like to know if they can sustain their claims. ASA complaint follows.
"I write to complain about flyers available outside the Luton branch of "Dr & Herbs", a "Traditional Chinese Medicine" retail outlet.
I suspect that the flyers may be in breach of three sections of the British Code of Advertising, Sales Promotion and Direct Marketing (CAP) code.
I have submitted scans of the flyer. I can provide an original copy of the flyer by post, if required.
1. The CAP Code, Section 7.1, states "No marketing communication should mislead, or be likely to mislead, by inaccuracy, ambiguity, exaggeration, omission or otherwise."
2. The flyer states:
"The depression in modern medicine falls into the categories of "Yu-syndrome" (depressed syndrome) and "Zang Zao" (restlessness of Zang-organs" in Chinese medicine, which are understood to be caused by abnormal emotions leading to the stagnated flow of Qi."
3. (i) Under Section 7.1, I challenge whether the flyer misleads, or is likely to mislead, in comparing "modern [Western] medicine" and "Chinese medicine [TCM]" by failing to note that only the former is an evidence-based practice.
(ii) Under Section 7.1, I further challenge whether the following statements mislead, or are likely to mislead:
(iii) "Protracted or excessive emotional depression could consume the heart Qi and undermine the blood so that the heart fails to be nourished and is thus unable to house the mind, so the mind becomes out of order."
(iv) "Excessive thinking and worrying could over-exert the heart and spleen, leading to the insufficiency of both Qi and blood, so the heart is malnourished and the mind is disturbed, resulting in the waning of heart Qi and declining of courageousness."
(v) "Consitutional Yin deficiency or prolonged liver-Qi stagnation turns to fire, which takes from the Yin-fluid in the body, so the insufficient Yin leads to the flaring up of fire and the floating of the imbalanced Yang."
4. The CAP Code, Section 3.1, states "Before distributing or submitting a marketing communication for publication, marketers must hold documentary evidence to prove all claims, whether direct or implied, that are capable of objective substantiation."
5. The CAP Code, Section 50.1, states "Medical and scientific claims made about beauty and health-related products should be backed by evidence, where appropriate consisting of trials conducted on people..."
6. (i) Under Sections 3.1 and 50.1, I challenge whether the advertiser holds documentary evidence to prove the following claim, and I challenge whether the claim is backed by evidence, where appropriate consisting of trials conducted on people:
(ii) The advertiser's consultants are capable of selecting "a group of raw herbs...to form a prescription, which is tailor-made for the patient [who has depression]"
7. (i) Regarding the treatment of depression with acupuncture, the Cochrane Review states: [1]
"Main results
This review is an update and now contains data from 30 studies... Thirty trials with 2,812 participants are included in the meta-analysis.
There was a high risk of bias in the majority of trials. There was insufficient evidence of a consistent beneficial effect from acupuncture compared with a wait list control or sham acupuncture control...
Authors' conclusions
We found insufficient evidence to recommend the use of acupuncture for people with depression. The results are limited by the high risk of bias in the majority of trials meeting inclusion criteria."
(ii) Under Section 3.1, I challenge whether the advertiser holds documentary evidence to prove the following claim; under section 50.1, I challenge whether the claim is backed by evidence, where appropriate consisting of trials conducted on people; under Section 7.1, I challenge whether the claim misleads, or is likely to mislead:
"Acupuncture: Chinese acupuncture treatment can ease depression. Some studies found it superior to anti-depressant drugs and with less side-effects"
8. I confirm that I have no connections with the advertiser or with the alternative medicine industry in general. I confirm that I am not involved in legal proceedings with the advertiser.
9. I confirm that I am happy to be identified as the complainant.

Status of Re-evaluation of Chlorothalonil
By Jim Ross
In February of this year, the Pesticide Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) presented an amendment to a re-evaluation decision with regards to the fungicide, chlorothalonil. This amendment would restrict the turfgrass use of this fungicide to a single fall application for the prevention of snow mould. You can download a copy of the WCTA submission below.
Currently, it is used to prevent a number of turf diseases and can be applied throughout the growing season. More information can be found on the label http://pr-rp.hc-sc.gc.ca/1_1/view_label?p_ukid=68241114
In the turf industry this fungicide is either used as a single active (Daconil 2787, Daconil Ultrex, Equus 82.5) or as a multiple active formulation (Concert or Instrata). It has been a very important fungicide in the turf industry for more than 45 years.
A recent webinar was held by the PRMA to inform user groups of the proposed amendment so that a more informed decision could be made about future use of this fungicide. At this point, the proposed amendment is in the consultation phase where end users are asked to comment on the use patterns and the registrant can provide information on various aspects of the toxicology of the active ingredient.
A number of years ago legislation was enacted that stated that any pest control products licensed in Canada would have to go through an evaluation process every 15 years. Chlorothalonil has been in use for many years and the review of this product was overdue.
As with any pest control product, it must be tested for its impact on those individuals and/or creatures that might come into contact with the product. The main concern of the PMRA was for human exposure for those that apply the product and for those who may come into contact with it, i.e golfers.
The reason for the re-evaluation was that the PRMA felt that there was an underestimate of the length of time applicators and bystanders (golfers) might be exposed to the product. Currently, some uses have worker exposure that is longer than 21 days per year and this was taken into consideration in the re-evaluation. In addition, the uptake of the active ingredient was thought to be much higher than originally thought.
So,what needs to happen to ensure that the turf industry continues to have chlorothalonil?
First of all, there needs to be evidence that worker and bystander exposure is less than 21 days per year. This is where the turf industry can provide some input such as how many times per year the product is applied and how frequently workers (other than applicators) and golfers might come into contact with the product during periods of time when residues might be dislodged and end up on the skin. The WCTA will be compiling information for submission so do not hesitate to provide your input!
For the registrant, the information that was used to register chlorothalonil in the first place is very dated. For instance, there was never any information presented on the dislodgeability of the active ingredient. PRMA have used the formula that 25% of the product actually adheres to the leaves when sprayed and that only 10% will dissipate in a 24 hour period. It is possible that this formula may be very different than what actually occurs. Evidence needs to be brought forward from more recent information.
The GreenCast blog that Syngenta (the registrant) discusses provides considerable insight into what information that they will provide. It and other updates can be viewed via the following link http://www.greencast.ca/Alerts/FeatureArticle.aspx?Paid=196818
As many of you know, iprodione is also up for re-evaluation. I will provide an update in the next newsletter on the status of this important fungicide for the turfgrass industry.

Tomaso de Luca: Artissima, Lobster Loop and more…
On the occasion of his show at Monitor Lisbon, "The Lobster Loop" and his solo presentation within the Drawings section of Artissima 2017, we interviewed artist Tomaso De Luca (Verona, 1988).
Tomaso is interested in the critic analysis of the political structures in which materi – also are embedded. His sculptures, drawings and dysfunctional architectures destroy and recompose reality, by reducing it to its constitutive pieces, which are then reconfigured in a new, unexpected order. The process of appropriation of reality leads Tomaso De Luca to question the position of the subject. The artist's work focuses on the performativity of body in the architectural spaces and in its relation with objects. The choice of specific materials seems to b e dictated by more than just functionality: he portrays the body by exploring its connection with surf aces – progressively more functional, obedient, smart and comfortable – as if, after all, we are all somehow striving to b e loved by objects. Within this discourse, materials and forms emerge as a political matter, which is sexualized, racialized, eroticized and profoundly embedded in structures of power. In his recent production De Luca has been questioning the so called 'machine' of Modernism – a functional machine which reflects on its own operating principles. Employing aesthetic standards that belongs to art and architecture from that p eriod, the artist reduces time (historical, institutional,intimate) to a spatial element, and investigates the need of complexity as a f orm of resistance in the contemporary discourse.
Carla Ingrasciotta: Your art deals with notion of identity. In your research you aim to free subjects and objects from their standard functions in order to question their forms and relations. How do you translate this idea into your art?
Tomaso de Luca: By trying to mirror reality through a specific thing, a specific gaze, an object, an archetype, a story. My work is a continuous research on otherness, a transformation of the work of art in a multiplicity, a hypertext, that leads the viewer to… nowhere. But in order to get to that specific nowhere, one should pass through every layer of my work, fall in every single charming trap I set up, and hopefully will end up covered in "mud".
My work reminds me of a silver pot, its reflecting surface which disrupts the surrounding reality. I wonder if anyone can, at the same time, be the teapot, the surrounding room and its reflection, one's own gaze and oneself?
C.I.: Could you tell us about your recent show with Monitor gallery, Lisbon? Which are the artworks you've presented on this occasion and what was the creative process behind it?
T.D.L: The idea for the show started from a dialogue between Andreia Santana, André Romão and myself, after Monitor gallery brought us together to collaborate. We started to think about the show as a novel, a book that can be walked through. We invented the plot of a sci-fi novel, where New York City's administration, due to the gentrification processes of the last 40 years, decides to abolish public and private space, and turns the whole city into a gigantic dive bar. We started to exchange emails with short narratives about the three of us meeting in one of the bars, named The Lobster Loop (which also could sound like a syndrome). The works I presented were a materialization, if you will, of the characters of my writing.
The two sculptures named "Cokehead" and the drawings on casted resin "The Visit and I Drink Because of You" and paper "Falling", portray the perspective consumers of the bar. These uncanny heads with long noses seem to consume not only drugs and drinks anymore. They're sniffing the space itself, architecture, furniture, they consume the space, when everything else is gone. I tried to push even further the anxiety of my generation, the questions about what and how we consume. The work "B.B.B.B.R.R.P.P.S.S.S.V.", inspired by a drawing by Archizoom, is the impossible architecture of the dive bar, which becomes an unattainable sanctuary.
C.I: How is your typical day as an artist?
T.D.L: Happily there are no "typical" days. I read, write, draw and make sculpture as much as I can every day.
C.I: What about your experience within Artissima? Any tips on the Turin art week you'd like to share with us?
T.D.L: The experience this year was great, I'm really glad João Mourão and Luis Silva invited me to take part of the section Disegni, it was exciting. In the fair, besides the high quality of the galleries proposals (showing some quite incredible works, like Beverly Pepper at Kayne Griffin Corcoran), I think the show Deposito d'Arte Italiana Presente was an interesting (anti)display, where the artists' works were vividly present. Good job!
Unfortunately my experience in Turin was extremely brief this time, I didn't manage to see many of the shows around the city. I've been to DAMA, where I enjoyed Anna Franceschini's screening and performance, curated by João Laia, and the works by Sebastian Burger at Tobias Naehring .
C.I: Your were born in Verona, studied in Milan but moved to Rome where you developed your artistic career. What do you think about the art scene in the city? Do you perceive Rome as one of the main Italian contemporary art destinations as Milan and Turin are?
T.D.L: Even if I left Rome two years ago, I am quite positive that it still has plenty of shows and chances to offer to anyone who's interested in contemporary art. So yes, sure, why shouldn't be compared to Milan or Turin?
C.I: Any upcoming project we could look forward to seeing?
T.D.L: Actually I'll be calm for a while now, I'm going back to NYC until January, so I will take this precious time to keep studying and working.

Because broadband is "still coming"...
In this article you'll learn why broadband high-speed internet access is so slow getting here. You'll also find out if you can get it where you live, and how this technology will (eventually) come into play at your website.
Currently, internet users looking to speed up their internet connections have three primary choices.
- ADSL (over existing phone lines)
- Cable Modem (via the cable TV infrastructure)
- Satellite (through a special satellite dish)
.. that is, depending on where you live.
If you're like me and you live in the country, you may be lucky enough to have even _one_ choice. For me that choice is satellite. And believe me, I tried. And tried. Yet I'm still on a regular ISP.
My own experience is not unlike that of many others in search of high speed internet access. You see, all three choices mentioned above come with this side note:
Even if it's available in your area and you can get it installed properly, you may find that it's not all it's cracked up to be. I learned that first-hand with poor service and unexpected costs.
It's no wonder web message boards are littered with still- slow web surfers singing the broadband blues. It seems that as broadband technology makes its way to the forefront it is encountering its share of problems. Among them are high costs, unreliable connections and technicians who are, shall we say, less than fully trained on the technology.
Rather than bore you with the details of my own trials and tribulations, I'll point you to a few stories about each of these broadband access services...
DSL: Darn Stupid Line
Cable Net Access Rides Slow Boat
Making Sense of Satellite Services
That's not to say YOU shouldn't give current high-speed technology a try. If you want to give it a go, you can save some time and effort by visiting http://www.getspeed.com to find out exactly which services are available in your area.
OK, now that you know why broadband is in the "still coming" stages, lets look forward a bit. After all, advances in technology take time to become mainstream. And broadband access _will_ become mainstream eventually. It may be another 4 or 5 years before it qualifies as such, but it will be here. While it is on the way, you as a web marketer must slowly prepare for the changes.
Don't worry, I'm not going to suggest you try to compete with AOL and Time Warner. Offering rich broadband streaming media is simply not going to be feasible for most small web marketers. And you probably don't have broadband updates worked into your budget. I know I don't! And that's just fine for quite a while to come.
You see, until broadband is actually mainstream, filling your website with rich content can actually be detrimental. It will hurt your "slow lane" web surfers by bogging down their experience. Unless you can offer an experience for BOTH fast and slow users you may be better off taking a minimal position.
But it _is_ a good idea to at least "consider" your strategies and how the eventual emergence of high-speed access may help your web presence.
You may even want to consider "easing" some broadband friendly content into your site. There are lots of ways to do this. Here are just two examples that should help you get your own ideas flowing...
1. Add a little "Flash".
Flash 4 is a program from MacroMedia which is a great solution for producing and delivering high-impact Web sites. Developers can create an array of dazzling effects including sound, animations, and innovative interfaces.
Simply put, if you want to create an impression and an unforgettable experience at your website, Flash is the tool to use. And if you're not up for developing your own Flash presentations, you can hire out the work. More and more web designers are offering flash programming to their services.
If you do decide to add Flash to your website though, don't force it on your visitors. While Flash works fine on slower connections, it's stronger on high-speed access, so make your Flash presentations an option your visitors can choose to view.
More information on Flash can be found at: http://www.macromedia.com/software/flash/
2. Add Professional Audio.
There are lots of ways to add audio to your site. A new and simplified method is available from Website Audio Productions, a company specializing in streaming audio for Internet communication. http://www.websiteaudio.com
As you'll see, their combination of professional script- writing, expert studio production, and no plug-in technology makes it easy to actually speak to your website visitors. And a professional voice greeting is a great way to audio-enable...
- Company Introductions
- Promotion of Products and Services
- Content Summaries
- Customer Service Information
- Virtual Tours, and more
Try one of their free greetings on your website. If you like
it, personalized versions are quite inexpensive. No special
server software is required and the greetings are a breeze
to implement.

Press Release
September 21, 2009
On the anniversary of the declaration of martial law, the labor group Partido ng Manggagawa (PM) called for major changes in the labor code in the interest of advancing workers rights and welfare. "It is ironic that even as we vow never again to repeat the tragedy of martial law, the 1974 labor code remains in force as an enduring legacy of the dictatorship and a tight chain on the hands of the workers. The 1986 Edsa revolution dismantled many ramparts of the Marcos dictatorship and revived the trappings of elite democracy but it retained the labor code in order to restrict the freedoms of workers," argued Renato Magtubo, chairperson of PM.
PM together with other labor groups under the KONTRA coalition formed to campaign against contractualization mobilized today several hundreds of workers. Theme of the workers rally was "Wakasan ang Batas Militar sa Paggawa." The KONTRA mobilization assembled around 9 am at Morayta in Manila before proceeding to Mendiola by 10 am.
"The urgency of revising the martial law-era labor code comes to stark relief as the International Labor Organization starts its High Level Mission on the government's enforcement of the Convention 87 and 98 on the right to organize of workers and bargain collectively," Magtubo explained. The ILO High Level Mission (HLM) arrives today and starts if investigation officially tomorrow.
Magtubo also issued a challenge to the presidentiables to make put in their platforms the labor issues. "For the coming election to truly be a fight between good and evil, the presidentiables must specifically commit to changes in the labor code and jurisprudence on labor in the interest of promoting workers rights and welfare. Any presidentiable who claims to be fighting for good instead of evil must be an advocate of labor," Magtubo insisted.
PM also appealed to the ILO HLM to investigate the "no union, no strike" policy in the export zones and the contractualization of labor both of which the group claims as a hindrance to the exercise of the right to unionize and bargain. "For example, Philippine Airlines will spinoff by November 15 its catering, passenger and cargo handling operations thus affecting an estimated 2,000 workers, about half its workforce. But this is just a retire-rehire tactic to weaken the PAL union. Lucio Tan owns the companies which will continue the spun off operations but with workers who are non-union with cheaper wages, less benefits and no security of tenure," Magtubo described.
He also clarified that in the Mactan Export Processing Zone in Cebu workers are complaining of unfair labor practices by management designed to interfere in the workers exercise of the freedom to organize. "A clear case in point is Alta Mode, a garments factory producing world famous brands like Abercrobie and Fitch and Hollister, that put on forced leave all of the union members on the day of the election for workers to decide on having a union. And several days after the union won a majority of the votes, the management put the factory on temporary shutdown in order to intimidate the workers," Magtubo added.

BMW Pirtek Racing's Andrew Jordan felt he suffered a "missed opportunity" to fight back in the title battle due to reliability issues in the British Touring Car Championship races at Silverstone.
The 2013 champion was encouraged by his BMW 125i M Sport's pace at the 1.6-mile national layout after qualifying fifth and progressing to third in the opening laps of the first contest.
Jordan then slowed on the exit of Luffield on lap 12 as he lost power, and later suffered a powersteering failure while fighting back in race two.
He told TouringCars.Net he was very annoyed after a day of what might have been, with reliability problems scuppering his chances of getting back into the title fight.
"It should have been a podium for race one and then who knows for race two and three but reliability has just let us down massively today," said Jordan.
"It's taken us out of the championship hunt when we should have been clawing points back. We've been on fantastic form all weekend, and in the last few events.
"We just need to get on top of the reliability because it's pointless having a quick car if it's not a reliable one.
"We'll work at it but I'm very annoyed because in race three on the hard tyre we've come from 22nd to ninth – which you shouldn't be able to do – and that just shows what we should have been able to do all day."
Jordan admitted he was surprised by the pace of the West Surrey Racing BMW at Silverstone, but added that this only amplified his disappointment not to achieve better results.
"I came here thinking we might struggle a little bit on pace and actually we've been strong on pace," he said.
"But that's the way it goes – it's just frustrating because it's been a real missed opportunity through nothing I've done or any of the guys on the car have done. The car has been quick all weekend but we just haven't got to the end of the races.
"In race two we had the powersteering fail, so I did two thirds of the race with no powersteering, and you just can't challenge when you've got no powersteering in these cars around here."
"We'll crack on to Brands but it's very frustrating."
As Jordan is now out of championship contention – some 83 points adrift of standings leader Colin Turkington – his approach for the finale on the Brands Hatch GP circuit is to push for silverware.
"Podiums and wins are all I'm going there focused on," Jordan said. "I just want to forget about this weekend for a bit, go home to my family and forget about racing for a bit because I'm fed up of it today!
"But that's the way it goes."

Washington, D.C. – Students need a permanent fix for college loan interest rates and not a short-term fix that holds them hostage a year at a time. That was the message U.S. Senator Mike Enzi, R-Wyo., gave during a speech on the Senate floor today. The Senate majority continues to push for a student loan interest rate plan that kicks the can down the road in place of a permanent solution and ignores 60 percent of students with new loans.
The Senate majority's short-term fix would save 40 percent of students just $6 a month on new loans by speeding up taxes on working-age folks who inherit money from their deceased loved one's retirement account.
A section of the president's health care law eliminated private banks from competing for student loans and locked in a higher interest rate. The money the federal government gets from overcharging students goes in part to help pay for the health care law, not to students for their education, according to Enzi.
"The federal government decided that a way we could fund health care in this country would be to take over the student loan industry and raise the rates to 6.88% which provides money for the Affordable Care Act," said Enzi.
The Senate majority leader changed his vote to a "no" so that "he can bring the failed student loan bill up again without having to consider an alternative." Enzi believes it's so the Republicans can be blamed one more time.
"It's pretty clever. By bringing up this bill by itself and having it defeated on a procedural motion, it solves two problems. One, you can blame Republicans. Two, the money will still be there for the Affordable Care Act. That's keeping the money and blaming the Republicans. How can it get better than that? Well, it can get better than that if we solve it for all of the kids applying for loans this year, not just 40 percent of them. And solve it so they know exactly where the interest rate is going to be at the time they apply and have it stay that way through the whole time they have the loan," said Enzi. "This isn't supposed to be a blame game around here. It's supposed to be about finding some common ground and getting things done."
In June, Senator Enzi voted for a long-term market-based solution that mirrored the plan President Obama offered. It would have permanently fixed the interest rate for 100 percent of students taking out new loans. Enzi believes that a permanent solution is needed and plans for a one-year extension are part of the problem in Washington.

PUBG (PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds) is one of the most popular game across various platforms including PC, Mobile, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Its creator and head developer, Brendan Greene back in March, announced that he won't be directly affiliated with the development of PUBG.
Greene announced that he will now be heading a new research team at PUBG Corp, called PUBG Special Projects, via his Twitter account. He has assumed the role of a consulting creative director and has handed off his responsibilities to Taeseok Jang, who is currently leading the development team.
In his tweet, he mentioned that the new PUBG Special Projects game research and development team will be based in Amsterdam instead of Seoul, which is the company's head office.

He has lowered the number of conventions that he attends, however, he still attends all major events like PUBG Europe League.
PUBG Corp currently has 16 job positions listed on their website for Amsterdam, most of which are for PUBG Special Projects.

DJ Safety Rookie of the Year Candidate: Marcus Jones
March 24, 2011
"I have an addiction. And that addiction is called racing!" It doesn't take long in talking to The ARCA Truck Series presented by the Phoenix Management Group's newest DJ Safety Rookie of the Year contender Marcus Jones to find that out!
"I started racing at 16 in the Hobby Stock division in Washington, Indiana. I had no money and was working for my dad at our concrete business. After a while, the opportunity presented itself to where I could become more a part of the business. Since I had so little into my racing, I went to work full-time for my dad and soon, we created Jones and Sons, Inc. in 1970 in Vincennes, Indiana. Anything to do with concrete, ready mix, cinder blocks, supplies, that's what we do. In 2004 we put up the Terre Haute plant. But, that fire still burned inside."
The racing fire that is. That addiction burned so bad that after a while, he went to his uncle, champion drag racer Sam Jones, about helping fund his circle track aspirations. Unfortunately he was lovingly told, "you're on your own," but with the simple message that if Marcus wanted bad enough, he could find the funding himself, but little and it becoming harder to find, Jones was almost forced out of racing all together. Also, the business and his family were looming larger in his life.
After a few years, Jones eye began wandering back to competition. New racing fans would know the name Rollie Helmling as the current Motorsports Development Director for the State of Indiana, appointed by new governor Mitch Daniels, or as the former President of USAC, but Marcus met a sprint car and midget owner in Helmling in 1990, who at the time was employing one John Andretti, nephew of racing legend Mario Andretti. But Andretti, who Jones said he thoroughly enjoyed working with and still keeps in close contact today, was ready to move on to the Indy cars and with his departure, a young driver by the name of Jeff Gordon stepped behind the wheel. Surrounded by future talent in the region like the Kinser family, Tony Stewart and the late Kenny Irwin, among others, it wasn't just Gordon's arrival (whom Jones also lauded as a "nice kid, very talented, knew a lot about what was going on around him and on the track") and the budding careers that Marcus remembers most, but his education at the feet of the legendary owner. "I learned a lot from him. Engines, chassis, how to run a team, and I also learned that I wanted to drive."
But Jones had a decision to make – get out of racing, or potentially lose his family. So Marcus quit the four wheel business "cold turkey", as he explained it, and returned to his home and company, but as he laughed when talking about his domestic efforts, "I wish I knew now what I didn't know then!" Not watching it or barely even following results, that fire almost consumed him – he was still a fan as his lack of competition almost burned him alive.
In the movie "Shawshank Redemption", the lead character says to his friend, "get busy livin', or get busy dyin'", and that seems to be what happened in a discussion between Marcus and his daughter in 2005. "She asked me if I was going back to racing. So, I signed up for the Gordon/Andretti Driving School at Kentucky Speedway. At the end of the day, the instructor was pleased with how well he thought I did. We got along well." Jones, now married to Penny, who, as he says, "understands my passion", then spent a year and a half buying racing packages and, as he explained, bought more and more where he would learn drafting, leading, following, passing, and took it "straight to the top", which led him to the P.R.E. School in Kansas where he continued broadening his learning curve, being put in race situations, more drafting, and finally a "6 car 10 lap shootout". When it was over, the father of five recalled, "the owner said he was impressed how I handled it all and asked if I would like to be an instructor because he thought I was good with people, how fast I got up to speed, how level headed I was and liked how I handled the race situations they put us in." So for one year, Jones went throughout Kansas, to Texas, Talladega, St. Louis, and also started running karts again to, as he said, become more "smooth". There were many runner-up finishes, but unfortunately no victories.
P.R.E soon folded, and Jones called the ARCA Series presented by Menard's Vice President of Competition Joe Wells about a possible entry into the sanction. Wells suggested Andy Hillenburg's Fast Track Driving School in North Carolina. But Jones began to share his teaching jobs and school work and the people he worked with and where he drove and finally Wells was able to issue him his Master License for competition. However, it didn't quite work out that way.
"I worked with Norm Benning on his crew for a while. I greatly respect Norm and what he has done. He's a very nice man and a tough driver, but with the equipment we had looked at that he was offering, I didn't think it would be good for my career or my reputation I was trying to build as a driver to race in it, so it just never worked out to compete for Norm."
But out of the blue, Jones was surfing the net and happened upon racingjunk.com and saw an ARCA Truck for sale "cheap", so he bought it and he, Dan Eakins and Doug Miller put it all together with a goal of running three fourths of the 2010 events and to keep the truck in one piece. So they took the white and red #55 to Lorain County in Ohio for his first event last June. Despite two right side flats, they finished 12th. Next up was Motordrome in Pennsylvania, where the newly christened "Marcus Motorsports" team claimed their first top ten in eighth. With that success, Jones was ready for his favorite track, Salem Speedway, and after running as high as fourth, he encountered problems and spun, but recovered to finish 6th.
"This team is made up of three equal parts: Best One Tire, who have stores in Michigan, Indiana and Ohio; Jones and Sons, Inc., and our team, Marcus Motorsports, whom I'm so blessed to have found. They're all volunteers, but without them, I wouldn't want to do this – I couldn't be here," stated the 56-year-old. He even addressed the issue of his age. "I admire guys like Mark Martin, who's what, 54? (52). The team and I had a meeting and we said, we don't wanna be doing this if we aren't having fun. Sure, we're taking it seriously, but we don't wanna be doing something we hate. I love what I'm doing and I want to show that my age doesn't matter! I know some people may look at me differently because of my age, or my backing, but I think that I can help the ARCA Truck Series. I have a very strong commitment to the ARCA Truck Series, which has excellent young drivers and I believe a great stepping stone to other places like the NASCAR Truck Series, for example. And, I feel our team can help be a building block for the next up and coming young drivers."
He continued, "Mark Martin raced around here (Indiana) when it was dirt and it was for next to nothing. There was very little to no money. I wonder how many of these drivers today would do that – race for next to little or no money?"
Jones can boast at least one victory, even before the 2011 ARCA Truck Series starts: he is the first to purchase the S347J Ford Crate Engine through the new program the series and the legendary car manufacturer set up. "I made a choice, just like everyone else has a choice. I chose to go this way because I think the Ford will be great for the series. We're all starting at the same level – we're all even with this program I feel at this time and I'm excited to be working with Ford and I feel it's going to save the series. We're almost finished with a truck we purchased from Gary Esterline, I picked up the Ford engine Wednesday (March 23rd), I hired Tonya McAllister and MPM Marketing and I'm happy to be making the plunge! I'm really excited!"
Okay, so what are this season's goals for the father of children Salina, Rachele, Justin, Shawna and Morgan?
"The team agreed that the DJ Safety Rookie of the Year was within our reach because maybe we're not ready for the championship."
Following his family's advice to return, now there is another goal Jones has attained – a full-time gig in racing to feed that addiction, to which, for most people, there seems to be no cure — other than participation that is! And Marcus Jones has proven that no matter the age, competition behind the wheel knows no age limits for any speed addict!

The lack of gender diversity in the upper echelons of Wall Street is not a pipeline issue, banking veteran Sallie Krawcheck, the CEO of Ellevest, said recently.
So why hasn't a big bank seen a female CEO take the helm yet? According to Krawcheck, the answer is rather straightforward.
"They're not getting promoted. It's pretty simple," Krawcheck told Yahoo Finance during an interview at the Fortune Brainstorm Finance event in Montauk, New York.
Krawcheck spent nearly 30 years on Wall Street, holding high-level positions across the finance industry's top institutions. She was CEO of sell-side research firm Sanford Bernstein, CEO of Smith Barney, CFO of Citigroup (C), and president of global wealth and investment management at Bank of America Merrill Lynch (BAC).
She left the industry after being ousted from Merrill Lynch in 2011. She went on to build Ellevest, a women-led digital investment platform for women that aims to close the gender gap in investing.
Even in 2019, there has yet to be a female CEO of one of the bulge bracket banks.
"I would have thought we would have by now because 'That's only fair, and there should be change, and the industry should reflect the world as it is today,'" Krawcheck said.

In life and business, the smart approach is to make the most of what you have. You can work for 8 hours and 10 hours and then 12 hours a day and hit your performance limit. How do you get more out of your work? By working smarter, not harder – Get others on board, delegate, communicate. Nowhere is this truer than with computer hardware. Poorly written software makes increasing demands on resources but cannot deliver quantum jumps in performance.
As we evaluated earlier versions of EventTracker it became clear that we were soon reaching the physical limits of the underlying hardware and the choke point to getting faster reports was not to work harder (optimize Code) but to work smarter (plan up-front, divide and conquer, avoid searching through irrelevant data).
This is realized in the Virtual Collection Point architecture that is available in version 6. By segregating log sources up front into virtual groups and stacking software processes from reception to archiving, improvement in performance is possible FOR THE SAME HARDWARE!
When comparing SIEM solutions for scalability, remember that if the only path is to add more hardware, it's a weaker approach than making the best of what you already have.

I've been in limbo lately. Segueing between productivity and sloth, between rage and joy, between calm and anxiety. It hasn't made a great deal of sense. I don't know whether it's just really ridiculous PMS, if it's the ordinary stresses of life overwhelming me for once or something deeper, but I've not been at my best these last two weeks (months? I honestly don't remember). According to that NHS test thing I'm showing 18 of the 21 signs of anxiety, and even though it's probably the wrong thing to do, I'm just ignoring that information for now. If I still feel like this two weeks down the line, I think it will be time to talk to a doctor and at least find out if there's a concrete reason for why I'm struggling.
Whenever things get really overwhelming, usually ending up with me screaming, shouting, crying or generally taking it out on someone else or myself, I do try to get a little perspective. By that I don't mean the whole "oh kids are starving somewhere and you're upset because the broccoli has gone mushy", but by figuring out why I'm really freaking out.
I sit down and write a big mess of scribbles and scrawls as I pour everything that's stressing me out onto a page. This easily fills a side of A4, but I eventually run out of steam and immediately start feeling better for just having got everything out. At this point I'll probably breathe deeply for the first time in about a week, and take a moment to just calm down a bit.
I then start to go through the big mess of emotions I've vomited onto the paper, and pick out the actual problems, writing them down in a separate list, leaving a big space underneath. This can take a while, and can easily be just as emotional as the initial outpouring. Once I've got my list, I reexamine what I've written. How many of these problems are actually the same thing dressed up in different ways? For example, I might write HATE WORK, COMPLETELY SKINT, FEELING STIFLED CREATIVELY, which all boil down to dissatisfaction with work. They're all the same problem, and there's one way I could fix all of them at once: get a new job. That's the next step.
Once I've consolidated my list and can make a bit more sense of it and have grouped things a bit, I start figuring out which ones I can solve and how, and which ones I can't. So although I definitely need a new job I can't just get one with a snap of my fingers. In the mean time that will help with how my current job is affecting me. I can look at my finances and see if I can eliminate any unnecessary spending, perhaps alleviating the COMPLETELY SKINT bullet point. For FEELING STIFLED CREATIVELY, I can spend more time on my blog or other project, prioritising the things that make me feel fulfilled.
For the things I realise I can't do anything about, which there usually aren't many of, I try to look at them from a different perspective. This is the point at which it can help to drag someone else in; sometimes you need someone who isn't as emotionally involved to help you look at a thing in a different way. These are the hardest ones to handle, as you really can't change them. However, once you've got the things you can control in hand, the bigger problems become a lot more manageable.
In in the interests of transparency I should tell you that I don't always manage to calm down long enough to realise that maybe I should do this, but I find that engaging in an exercise similar to this regularly helps keep me a little calmer for a while as I understand why I'm so stressed out.
That's all for now, but if you're anything like me and frequently find yourself feeling overwhelmed I'd recommend trying an exercise similar to this. I find that, done regularly, I feel more in control of my life and emotions and can be more myself, rather than the sobbing mess I've been of late.
Stalk me!

New York Times Portraits of Grief
When Michele Haobsh learned last year that she had breast cancer, she called Robert Deraney, her brother, and said: "What do I do?" He provided answers, finding an oncologist and surgeon and accompanying her to chemotherapy and radiation appointments. Long before she did, he joined Gilda's Club, for people with cancer and their families, and made an appointment for her and her family. "He got me through it," she said.
Mr. Deraney, 43, a financial consultant who graduated from Princeton and the Wharton School, was at a breakfast meeting at Windows on the World on Sept. 11.
He was the "high energy" family organizer, Mrs. Haobsh said. He planned the annual reunions of 70 relatives, ordering Lebanese food and creating a game - Who Wants to be a Famillionaire? - based on Deraney trivia.
His Upper West Side apartment was furnished with family antiques. He set an elegant table with china and silver for 35 and ended evenings by playing the piano. "He was," Mrs. Haobsh said, "pretty much perfect."

Saint Barbara
December 05, 2018
Too many of the historical details of the life of St. Barbara were lost in history for her feastday to remain on the Roman Calendar after its revision in 1969, but Barbara still remains on the roster of saints.
Due to sudden nature of her death and that of her executioner (her father by lightning?), she has been invoked for protection against lightning and storms, and explosions, especially those occurring in mines, munitions factories and those who work with explosives.
While that may not pertain to most of us, she is also the patroness of a death with the solace of the last sacraments of the church - Holy Eucharist or Viaticum and the anointing of the sick.

Trailer FrenzyA special place to find the newest trailers for movies and TV shows you're craving.
The first half of this new international trailer for Riddick is pretty much the same as the last Riddick trailer, but if you can push through, you'll be rewarded with a lot of new footage, including more action, more monsters, and lots more Riddick keeping his promises (you'll see).
Again, Riddick looks exactly like Pitch Black, but it looks like a better Pitch Black. I'm not complaining.

A group of college professors have released a report that claims the federal government's attempts to combat sexual harassment are stifling educators' free speech on university campuses.
The American Association of University (AAUP) found that the current interpretation of the government's Title IX laws which cover sexual harassment have made it hard for professors, especially female professors, to teach their students. Right now, if a student finds something offensive and complains about it, universities immediately open up an investigation into that teacher's actions, no matter how "questionable" that complaint is.
According to the report, the failure of the federal government to make "meaningful distinctions between conduct and speech or otherwise distinguish between hostile environment sexual harassment" is putting academic freedom and free speech in jeopardy. The general counsel of the association and the chairwoman of the subcommittee who wrote the report, Risa L. Lieberwitz spoke to the NY Times, saying:
"We need to protect academic speech and the freedom that goes with academic speech, as well as due process. Universities are acting in a way that is overly precipitous as well as applying overly broad definitions of sexual harassment because they are afraid of scrutiny."
The report even gives examples to support their claims. One of those was regarding Sociology Professor Patty Adler's class,"Deviance in US Society," at the University of Colorado-Boulder. Adler had taught the class for more than twenty years and each semester around five hundred students enrolled in it, but in 2013 some of the students complained that her class "constituted sexual harassment":
At the conclusion of the term, undergraduate teaching assistants participated in and witnessed role-playing exercises featuring subjects relevant to course material involving the global sex trade: these performances animated character types, such as an "Eastern European 'slave whore,' a pimp, a 'bar whore,' and a high-end escort." Adler's Dean offered her a buyout for early retirement and indicated if she did not accept the offer, she could incur penalties up to and including forfeiture of her retirement benefits.
Her other option was to return to the classroom but never teach the course again. When students, faculty and advocacy groups found out what was happening they protested the school's ultimatum and eventually the university relented and welcomed her back without any conditions. However, the incident took such a toll on her that she only stayed for one semester and then retired.
Professor Adler is not alone, similar incidents have happened all across the country and that is the violation of free speech and academic freedom the AAUP found so troubling. The group is not advocating sexual harassment, they are just asking that the government draw clearer lines between what is and what isn't harassment so that students can be properly educated.
Right now, the lines are so blurry that colleges and universities are doing a disservice to the students who pay thousands of dollars for a well-rounded curriculum. Of course, these schools should act if a professor is violating the law, but there is a huge difference between harassment and "well, this is an uncomfortable, intellectual topic." Nobody benefits when schools don't use common sense when investigating claims.

Is Keke Wyatt pregnant...again? Fans think so!
Over the weekend, the singing powerhouse was captured in a new video while performing L.A. and it has folks wondering if she's gearing up for baby #10.

The soulful songstress gave birth to her ninth child - Kendall Miguel - in October 2018 right before she got married to her new husband Zachariah Darring. She called it quits with her "toxic" ex Michael Ford while she was 8-months pregnant with Kendall.
Keke has nine kids total, including a stepdaughter from her previous relationship with Michael Ford, three children from her first marriage, and Keke & Michael have four together. Bless her uterus. Whew.

Infinity Ward is introducing a new game mode into their featured playlist for Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. Live now through Monday January 9th at 10am PST, Infinite Warfare Reinforce Mode is a four versus four elimination style game where your objective is to capture map points (kind of like Domination). The catch, however, is that when you take a point you can revive your teammates.
Matches in Reinforce Mode are both fast and team-oriented, with a intermission in between rounds where teams switch sides. You can win each round by either taking all the control points or killing the entire enemy team. The first team to win four rounds is the winner of the match. The mode plays by Core Playlist rules.
Radically different from your standard deathmatch modes, Reinforce requires that you move tactically around the map with your team. This might be something that proves hard for Call of Duty players who just run into the fray. Once you die, you have to wait for someone on your team to capture a point to respawn or you won't be able to get back into the action until the next round.
Reinforce Mode is available through its own playlist in the "Featured Section" of the Playlist Selection interface. Infinity Ward offers a tip for new players: "You may want to wait to capture your first point until you need to revive your teammates that fell while taking another point."
Reinforce Mode isn't entirely new though. This game mode was introduced in Call of Duty: Ghosts, and now we're seeing a revival in Infinite Warfare. Most describe it as a hybrid between existing game modes: Search and Rescue, Search and Destroy, and Domination.
Since going live, fans have been asking for the mode to return for good. Though Infinity Ward has made no mention of whether or not this will be the case or not. Right now, it's only available until Monday.
