Free E-Book Alert: The Last Plea Bargain
For a limited time, you can download Randy Singer's The Last Plea Bargain for free! Click here for links to your preferred retailer and for a complete list of our current e-book deals. This offer ends on 03/30/13.
Plea bargains may grease the rails of justice, but for Jamie Brock, prosecuting criminals is not about cutting deals. In her three years as assistant DA, she's never plea-bargained a case and vows she never will. But when a powerful defense attorney is indicted for murder and devises a way to bring the entire justice system to a screeching halt, Jamie finds herself at a crossroads. One by one, prisoners begin rejecting deals. Prosecutors are overwhelmed, and felons start walking free on technicalities. To break the logjam and convict her nemesis, Jamie must violate every principle that has guided her young career. But she has little choice. To convict the devil, sometimes you have to cut a deal with one of his demons.

Imagine the future you want to see. Maybe it's fresh air and an inspiring sunrise, or your favorite little girl as CEO of a well-known company. Our collective investment decisions can dramatically influence both the fabric and consciousness of society.
All investing is impact investing. For better or worse, investment capital finances either socially desirable or socially destructive businesses. The companies we invest in may have either a positive or negative impact on people, communities, and our environment.
Fortunately, we can make a conscious choice about how our money works in the world. As responsible investors, we seek to make investment decisions that not only make mone , but that also support and accelerate a crucial shift toward a more economically just and environmentally sustainable future. Many companies have this same focus, as they recognize that their long-term future value is intertwined with the health of people and the planet. These companies will thrive, as will the investors who own them.
While the origins of SRI date back centuries, the modern roots of responsible investing can be traced to the impassioned political climate of the 1960s. A series of themes such as concerns regarding the Vietnam War, civil rights, our natural environment and equality for women served to escalate sensitivities to issues of social responsibility and accountability. This broadened during the 1970s to include labor/management issues and anti-nuclear convictions.
The ranks of responsible investors grew dramatically in the 1980s as millions of people, churches, universities, cities, and states focused investment strategies on dismantling the racist system of apartheid in South Africa. Then, with environmental disasters such as Chernobyl and Exxon Valdez, the environment and energy became prominent issues for investors across the globe.
In recent years, school shootings, human rights, respect for indigenous peoples, gender identity awareness, governance-based corporate scandals, and safe and healthy working conditions in factories that produce goods for U.S. consumption have become rallying points for investors with dual objectives for their investment capital. Most recently, the climate crisis has awakened investors to opportunities inherent in directing investment capital toward a truly sustainable future.
Today, investors are increasingly embracing the concept that enjoying the financial benefits of stock ownership comes with the ability to make a meaningful difference by consciously directing investment capital toward enterprises that contribute to a clean, healthy environment; treat people fairly; embrace equal opportunity; produce safe and useful products; and support efforts to promote world peace, we take responsibility for the impact of our investments and any profit from them.
Motivated by a sense of empowerment that has financial, social, and ecological dimensions, socially conscious investors understand that investment returns over the lon -term are driven primarily by the performance of innovative, well-managed corporations. More importantly, we know that both the profitability and sustainability of any business depends on the health of the communities they serve. Companies that contribute to the health of people and communities represent attractive investment opportunities – encompassing renewable ener
gy healthy food, clean air, plentiful water, environmentally friendly products, and more.
SRI (Sustainable, Responsible, Impact) investing is an investment approach which reflects the common threads that weave the motivations of many socially conscious investors together: Putting investment capital to work toward creating a truly sustainable future; owning shares of the most responsible companies; while making money and having a positive impact – all at the same time.
Responsible investing is no longer a fringe idea. The 2016 Report on U.S. Sustainable, Responsible, and Impact Investing Trends * has identified $8.72 trillion in professionally managed portfolios using one or more of the dynamic investment strategies that together define Sustainable, Responsible, Impact investing in the U.S.
In the nineteen years between the first Trends Report in 1995 and the most recent 2016 report, responsibly managed asset pools have grown from $639 billion to over $8.72 trillion *, an increase of 1,265%. Perhaps even more exciting for the industry, responsibly invested assets grew 33% between 2014 and 2016 alone! *
Today, nearly one out of every five dollars under professional management in the United States is involved in some form of sustainable and responsible investing *. That translates to nearly 18% of the $36.8 trillion in total investment assets under professional management in the U.S. as tracked by Cerulli Associates.*
A sustainable and responsible approach to investing includes both quantitative and qualitative analysis. All investors look for profit potential, but responsible investors also integrate an evaluation of environment, social, and governance (ESG) factors into the investment decision-making process, with a keen eye toward the impact portfolio companies have on our world. ESG factors are the detailed analytics behind the SRI investing approach.
A triple bottom line (people, planet, profit) analysis provides the basis for designing investment portfolios aligned with personal values and social priorities, while delivering the returns needed to achieve an investor's financial goals. It's a rigorous financial process that considers the impact of an investment on all stakeholders.
ESG Integration. Management of ESG issues can have a material influence on company profitability, value, and share price. Qualitative ESG analysis offers valuable insights into corporate policies, practices, culture, and impacts. Analysis of ESG factors can help illuminate corporate character and identify better-managed companies.
Shareowner Engagement includes voting proxies, dialoguing with companies and filing proxy resolutions to encourage more responsible corporate citizenship and more positive impact on society at large. Efforts are focused on improving financial performance over time and enhancing the well-being of all stakeholders – customers, employees, vendors, shareowners, communities, and the natural environment.
Community Impact Investing directs capital to people in low-income, at-risk communities where it is often difficult to access financing through conventional channels. Many socially conscious investors earmark a percentage of their investment portfolios to community development financial institutions (CDFIs) that work to alleviate poverty, create jobs, provide affordable housing, and finance small business development in disadvantaged communities.
Increased Data and Information. Investors are significantly better educated and informed today. ESG research organizations provide higher quality information than ever before. The better informed investors are, the more responsible our actions tend to be.
Performance. An impressive body of academic evidence plus real world results effectively dispels the myth that investing in a more thoughtful, responsible manner will automatically result in underperformance. Investors are realizing that responsibility can walk hand-in-hand with prosperity.
Availability. Responsible investment options are increasingly being offered within investment portfolios and retirement plans, and a socially conscious investor can now choose from among hundreds of funds and investment managers to populate a long-term investment portfolio – regardless of size.
Values and Authenticity. A large and growing segment of the investing public is seeking to reflect their personal, moral, ethical values in all aspects of their lives. Responsible investors are recognizing that money has impact, and consciously making consumer purchase and investment decisions that enhance the common good.
Climate Change. As consumers and investors are becoming increasingly aware of both the dangers and business opportunities embodied in the climate crisis, more and more are looking to avoid companies contributing to the problem and invest in those creating solutions.
Women. As women are increasingly breadwinners, distinguished graduates with advanced business legal, and technical education, and leaders in corporations, their potential to impact corporate practices is formidable. They are also part of the great wealth transfer that is beginning to occur and are the recipients of large inheritances. Women are shown to have an affinity for integrating a more values-based approach to investing.
Millennials. Born between the early 1980s and the early 2000s, the millennial generation is the largest in American history at 85 million strong. More than any generation prior, Millennials seek to make a difference in society through the jobs they hold, the products they buy, and the investments they make. Millennials are poised to inherit trillions of dollars from Baby Boomers – and their influence as impact-oriented investors is starting to be felt.
Corporate Scandals and Lawsuits. Numerous recent governance-related instances of fraud and other manipulation have eroded trust in company leadership. Many investors are attracted to an investment process based on research that goes deeper into corporate behaviors and impacts.
If we are going to manage and mitigate many of their issues that threaten our quality of life, business must shoulder more responsibility for both remedy and prevention. Consciously or not, people are casting a ballot with every consumer purchase and investment decision. When it is perceived that a company is exploiting workers in unsafe foreign factories, for example, informed consumers often stop buying that company's product, and informed investors push management for changes in business practices.
All investors, no matter how large or small, can consciously choose to invest in ways that enhance the common good.
Working with an investment professional who can help you plan and implement investment strategies designed to achieve your financial goals is always advisable. Many SRI Conference sponsors offer high quality investment services and advice designed specifically to serve the needs of socially conscious investors.
The author, Steve Schueth, is President of First Affirmative Financial Network, LLC (SEC File #801-56587) and Producer of The SRI Conference.
Mention of specific companies or securities should not be considered a recommendation to buy or sell that security. Past performance is no guarantee of future investment results.
"SRI" in an acronym for Sustainable, Responsible, Impact and reflects the common threads that weave the motivations of many socially conscious investors together: Putting investment capital to work toward creating a truly sustainable future; owning shares of the most responsible companies; while making money and having a positive impact – all at the same time.
*Report on Sustainable, Responsible and Impact Investing Trends in the United States 2016 . US SIF: The Forum for Sustainable and Responsible Investment is the nonprofit membership association for the responsible investment industry in the U.S. ( www.ussif.org).
More and more investors are beginning to understand that all investments have impact. The ways we spend and invest can dramatically influence both the fabric and consciousness of society.
Investment capital can finance either socially desirable or socially destructive businesses. Corporations may have either a positive or negative impact on people, communities, and our natural environment. Responsible investors, we seek to make money while using our money to catalyze a shift toward a more economically just and environmentally sustainable future.

Pink Mince, my very gay zine
Pink Mince on Instagram
Pink Mince on Tumblr
Hi, I'm Dan Rhatigan. You can use the links above to dig through the design work, old blog posts, and various other things archived on this site. If you like you can also check out some of the material featuring me shown below, or just get in touch.
...after all those typography talks. I had a chat with the fellas from Recon this summer about Pink Mince and fetish and stuff.
"When we visited NYC we met with Recon member spark, the creator of fetish zine, Pink Mince. In this video spark tells us about the creation of the zine, as well as his ethos regarding fetish."
It may not come as a surprise that a lot of my job at this point is yapping about fonts. This talk took place on November 7, 2017 in the Koret Auditorium at the San Francisco Public Library as part of Type@Cooper West's Letterform Lecture Series. This recording was made possible by a generous sponsorship from Adobe Typekit.
After a trial run of this subject at the Kerning conference this summer, I gave another presentation about the typography of vintage gay magazines, at ATypI in Montreal a couple of weeks ago.
Missing from the clip is my opening joke, which went over well: "The last talk of the day before cocktails seems like a good time to talk about gay porn."
Kerning 2017, June 9 — Dan Rhatigan - Marginalized Typography from GrUSP on Vimeo.
Fastest upload ever! I just gave this talk earlier today at TYPO Labs in Berlin. I've barely slept for the last two days, so I'm surprised that I sound so lucid.
Since last September's announcement of the new OpenType 1.8 spec, variable fonts have been moving from concepts and demos into practical solutions. This overview will summarize the progress made so far on new fonts, the environments that can support them, and what some designers have already learned to do with them.
Update: And here's a nice montage of scenes and impressions from the event:
When I started at Adobe last September, the Adobe Type team had been hard at work for quite some time on a major project: Source Han Serif, a serif-style family supporting pan-CJK languages. This is a follow-up to Source Han Serif, but pushes the scope a little further than that project, particularly in that it turns out to have been the original story for Frank Grießhammer's wonderful Source Serif, as well.
I didn't do much for the project itself other than keep an eye on its progress while my better-qualified colleagues finished what they'd started, but thy were kind enough to let me talk about the work and how it fits in with Adobe Type's overall mission, which IS my job to worry about.
Today's media blitz continues with an interview with me on Ilise Benun's HOWLive podcast.
In the latest HOWLive podcast interview, Ilise Benun, founder of Marketing-Mentor.com and Program Partner for HOW Design Live talks with Dan Rhatigan of Adobe Typekit about the democratization of type and how technology is transforming type with color fonts, variable fonts and the rise of emoji.
For the last few Summers I have been one of the instructors for the SVA Type Lab, a 4-week course in typeface design here in New York. This year, we've been trying to promote the course with some cute short videos:
What's your least favorite letterform, the most elegant, the most underrated? Tell us in the comments! Here's how Typelab instructors @ultrasparky and @tobias.frerejones, and @samarskaya answered. - - #typethursdays #timespacecommunity #typography #typeface #type #typeinspire #typedesign #typematters #typeeverything @svace
While I was in London recently, I helped my pals at Grey London with a film about why they're taking on the names of their original founders, Valenstein & Fatt, to talk about diversity in the industry.
I was originally asked to talk about the typeface they chose to recapture the spirit of Grey, circa 1917, but as it turned out I was much more passionate about how hard it has always been for immigrants and other marginalized groups to assimilate into American culture, despite the myth of the Great American Melting Pot.
Valenstein & Fatt from Valenstein & Fatt on Vimeo.
(I begged them to re-kern that logotype, though.)
Update: A second video, with my take on Valenstein & Gray's choice of Century Schoolbook for their re-imagined brand:
Valenstein & Fatt: The Logo from Valenstein & Fatt on Vimeo.
This talk took place on Saturday, June 18, 2016 in The Great Hall at The Cooper Union as part of Typographics.
Typographics 2016: The Blank-ish Page from Type@Cooper.
My summary from the program:
It can be difficult to explore possibilities of typography when designers—and especially clients—assume certain things are given, when these variables are not hard limits, just conventions. I want to look at the background of certain defaults of our software, to get people to consider them in some context and think about them more critically.
"Tailored Typography", a talk I gave at the San Francisco Public Library on March 29, 2016, as part of Type@Cooper West's lecture series
I've delivered some variations of this talk in the past. In fact, I believe the first iteration for it was for Type@Cooper in New York. My ideas about the material presented continue to evolve as I learn more doing various bits of research, but this time I was able to be a little more direct in my discussion of some details now that I no longer directly represent Monotype. (There had always been some legal hindrance in my ability to speak as an employee about the manufacturing activities of the Linotype and Monotype corporations in their original incarnations, neither of which are actually the same entity that operates today as Monotype Imaging, Inc. Don't even get me started on that.)
The basic premise of this talk, though — the relationship of type production to type design — is a big fascination of mine that keeps going deeper all time time, so I imagine someday there will be other versions of this that evolve even further.
"Learning from Letraset", a talk I gave at Cooper Union on February 22, 2016, as part of Type@Cooper's Herb Lublin Lecture Series
Letraset and other brands of rub-down type literally put typography in the hands of the people. Rub-down type made it possible for students, professionals, and everyone else to design with real typefaces, without needing professional typesetting services. A cheap and easy way to experiment with typography and other graphic elements, Letraset put a lot of care into making type easy to use well, but it also resulted in a lot of ways to use type badly, but with interesting results. With some care and attention, however, it was a great way to develop an eye for typography.
This talk was a look at Letraset's type and other graphic supplies, showing how they put the tools of professional design into everyday hands. It also looked at how people had to improvise with Letraset, and made the most of the materials at hand.

Adding to the Olive Camo colorway of the adidas NMD that we showed you earlier, we now have a release date to report for the Red Camo colorway as well.
This new colorway of the adidas NMD comes draped in a grey and red/orange/pink camo graphic all over the Primeknit upper that is complemented by white detailing on the eyelets, laces and the BOOST midsole. The EVA inserts on the midsole are done in off-white as well as the heel and heel pull tab. The outsole on this pair of NMDs is all-white to complement the BOOST midsole.
Releasing on March 23rd at select adidas Originals retailers for a retail price of $170, what are your thoughts on this upcoming NMD release?
via: adidas
Author's Take
If the color on the upper was really red I think it would look a lo better. Instead this shoe looks like a mix of orange and pink which I'm not really liking. These are a pass for me.

popular gay hookup apps So, for the last few days I have been pouring myself over my latest book buy, Taraji P Henson's Around the Way Girl memoir. Funny enough, this is a show that advertising on Instagram works, because I was casually going through my timeline when up came an ad for Taraji's book. Now, I didn't even know she had a book much less, but here I was intrigued all the same, and not even 24 hours later I was using my Amazon Prime to ensure a swift delivery. Obviously, this is not a post on advertising or Amazon Prime but these are the two key components to me receiving the knowledge and actually having the book in my hands, so thought I'd share. Anyway enough about that let me get started on my thoughts on Taraji's new book.
First thing I noticed straight away was Taraji's voice, straightforward, honest and authentic. It was almost like 'Cookie', her character from Empire, was talking to me. And I know your probably thinking, erm Cookie is fictional, so how can her voice be authentic, or maybe you're not thinking that, but if you are, if you read the book you will know she refers to 'Cookie' a lot. She has made Cookie into her own authentic self, breathed life into the character so much so that she has embodied her. So, when I say, 'it was almost like Cookie was talking' I mean watch Empire and see how Taraji has developed and created herself into Cookie.
http://celebritysex.cz/?triores=free-sites-for-dating-uk&ca1=21 She talks about many things, starting from her childhood to getting to Hollywood. She talks of her father who she learned a lot from even though he wasn't perfect. You can feel the love radiating off the page as she walks us through some of the shenanigans she got up to with her father. I guess there's nothing more precious than a daughter and father bond, (my opinion). I won't tell you guys everything but she talks about her mother and how much she learned from her about being strong, and some of the hardships they had to endure due to living in a rough neighbourhood and struggling to get by on her mother's salary.
follow link By the end of the book she begins to talk about being black in Hollywood, that chapter is interesting. It touched me to see how far black women, people in general, have come but also opened my eyes to how much more work is needed. She mentions Viola Davis's 2015 Emmy award acceptance speech, 'I see a line…' where she talks about being equal to white women. She praises her for her work in How to Get Away With Murder and she names a whole bunch of other talented black actresses. But what caught my attention was when she mentions there not being enough roles for black women/people to get casted for. Hmmmm, that, I want to say surprises me but I it really doesn't, and isn't that a shame?
site rencontre parent celibataire gratuit
forex binary options system download And to finish off I've taken a quote from Taraji's book, something she said her father always used to say to her: 'all I had to do was be patient, shut out the noise, and stay focused, and joy will come in the morning.'
follow url I hope you liked my thoughts on Taraji's Around the Way Girl, It's a great read. If you luvvvvv you some Cookie then you will want to read this.

By the C|C Whistleblower Lawyer Team
American companies are no strangers to the extractive industries in Africa. Exxon has operated on the continent for more than 100 years. Exxon is also well acquainted with rumors and scandal regarding corruption in the African oil industry, having been accused of paying bribes to the ruling family of Equatorial Guinea. Now, with the repeal of an SEC disclosure rule, whistleblowers are more necessary than ever to detect such activities.
Last week, the United States Congress killed an SEC disclosure rule aimed at preventing foreign bribery by large oil, gas, and mining companies. The rule required these companies to disclose all payments to foreign governments for things like licenses and permits. Industry experts say that bribes are often hidden in such payments. Similar rules still exist for extractive companies listed on stock exchanges in the EU, Norway, and Canada, however, these rules don't touch over 400 additional companies the SEC rule would have covered, including oil and gas giant Exxon Mobil.
US companies that bribe foreign governments or their employees are in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA"). The FCPA, enacted in 1977, was intended to stop widespread bribery of foreign officials by U.S. companies, create a level playing field for honest business, and restore public confidence in marketplace integrity. Advocates have also noted that enforcing the FCPA can help make governments on the receiving end of bribes more transparent, especially in countries with weak freedom of information laws.
The repeal of the SEC disclosure rule does not change the anti-bribery provisions of the FCPA, but it will make violations harder to detect. Many natural resource deals involve foreign governments, many of which control their country's resource deposits directly or via state-owned entities. Extractive companies often pay foreign governments for exploration rights, permits, licenses, and royalties based on what is extracted. Because of Congress' action, companies will now no longer be obligated to disclose such payments to the SEC.
This makes whistleblowers more important than ever before. Given the lack of transparency associated with work in these industries and in countries far from direct oversight, insiders that witness bribery or corruption are now more essential to detecting fraud. Reporting violations of the FCPA to the SEC can garner whistleblowers awards of up to 30% of the government's recovery. And under the statute, whistleblowers do not need to be American citizens or nationals. Recoveries in the FCPA arena have been enormous. Since 2008, the ten largest fines imposed for FCPA violations top $5 billion, with over $1.2 billion resulting from three 2016 settlements alone. The opportunity for FCPA whistleblowers has never been timelier.

We've been out of this country for almost a year. And we've seen a lot of places and experienced a lot of things in that time.
But the bottle-man has been doing the same thing every day that entire time.
It's a humbling thought.
This man walks all through our part of the city yelling "Al jerrkanaat" (at least I think that is what he's yelling.) He's asking for old plastic bottles. He pays people a few cents for their used plastic bottles, then takes them to a recyling center somewhere and gets paid a few more cents when he turns them in.
The other morning I heard his very familiar voice calling out from the empty square behind our apartment. And there he was with his empty bags walking through just like always.
He maybe doesn't mind that this is just what he does day in and day out. It's all he's known.
Humbling, huh?

A Look Back
Here we are, our final week before winter break! I am so excited to go back home to Iceland, I am definitely in need of a break after these past crazy months! It seems like forever ago since I came to New York, didn't know anyone and had no idea what kind of roller coaster I was in for! I was so scared to be around such talented people, be in this intense environment and in this big city. However, I was pleasantly surprised. Now that I look back, I know I made the right choice coming to school here. For the first time in my life I feel like I am in the exact right place, where I truly belong. This place is incredible in so many ways. I am extremely thankful to have had the opportunity to come here, and be able to grow as a person and an artist.
Here are some things that have stood out in my first four months here at Juilliard and I will always remember!
1) Orientation week! Making friends, adjusting.
It is hard for everyone to come to move away from home and come to college, no matter where you are coming from. This week really saved our lives, they taught us everything about the school, made us play awkward games to break the ice and helped us make these first days so much easier. It was actually an incredibly fun week!
2) Seeing the other divisons perform!
I work as a Concert Usher as my workstudy, which allows me to see some of the shows that are going on inside the school. I was completely blown away by the other divisions, dance and drama! I couldn't believe how talented these people were! If you come to Juilliard, make sure you attend these performances, your friends and colleagues are incredible at what they do!
3) Performing in front of my classmates!
Although I haven't had any real performances, it is always scary to perform for the first time in front of your judgemental classmates. First studio class, first orchestra seating audition, first quartet performance… it is very scary! However, it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be! The people were supportive and deep down everyone felt the same way.
4) Seeing world renowned artists perform across the street!
If you study at Juilliard, means that a typical Friday night may involve seeing your idol perform, right across the street for a very cheap price!! After a while, you even get used to it! That, in my opinion, really makes this school unique. You can get good education everywhere, but this kind of education you get by seeing actual artists perform live, is very special.
5) All the new friends!
It is funny how easily you make new friends when you are away from everyone you know. Let's face it. When you look back, all the best memories were created with your friends. Don't forget to have fun, even though life is busy!
Overall, I am a very happy camper here at Juilliard. I highly recommend you to come here!! You will not regret it :)
Happy Holidays everyone!

SOURCE: Nano Labs Corp.
January 29, 2015 10:30 ET
DETROIT, MI--(Marketwired - Jan 29, 2015) - Nano Labs Corp. (OTCQB: CTLE) ("Nano Labs" or "The Company") is pleased to announce it has signed an agreement through its subsidiaries "Pol-Ec International Technologies Corp USA" and POLEC S de RL ("Polec Mexico") to submit test trials to construct access roads for the New International Airport of Mexico City (NAICM). This is a vital part of the infrastructure for the construction of one of the largest airports in the world when completed. http://www.aeropuerto.gob.mx/
After reviewing the benefits and the scope of the potential applications of Technosoil, POLEC´s liquid cement, which has been tested over the past 6 months, POLEC has been invited by the technical committee of the new airport project to submit a technical proposal for construction of the access roads for the entire project.
The entire project represents an investment of more than $13 billion US Dollars in phase one. The new airport will be built on 11,400 acres of land (4,430 hectares). Some of this land is on a reserve owned by the federal government in the lakebed of Texcoco Lake. This land represents difficult technical challenges due to the water saturation levels of the local soil, the organic content, and the soil salinity. These conditions may lead to potential damage to infrastructure (roads, bricks, corrosion of pipes and cables) if these issues are not properly evaluated and addressed.
The terms of the partnership between the companies to test Polec's proprietary polymer-based liquid cement involve furthering technical evaluations and complete due diligence by the Airport Project´s Technical Committee. The technical proposal includes an evaluation of the performance of the product tested with local soil over the past 6 months.
"The Joint Venture agreement signed last year between the parties also provides the possibility to participate in future joint projects. The goal of the new agreement between Pol-Ec International Technologies Corp USA and Polec S, RL. is to invest in the validation protocol required to test Technosoil so that it will be used in the new airport, in particular for the access roads of the entire project," comments Mr. Bernardo Camacho Chavarria, President of Nano Labs.
"The polymers function as a cementing and bonding agent which increases and optimizes the molecular attraction of the soil. This controls the expansion and linear contraction, thus increasing the amount of carrier load and resistance suitable for road construction applications while protecting the structures against elements like salt and water. An important feature of Technosoil is that it considerably reduces the permeability of the soil, which is a very important factor for this project. Polec's polymers meet ASTM standards and have been tested in laboratories with International Certification. The quality of polymers and technology developed for the construction industry makes Technosoil a logical choice for a project like NAICM," said Jorge Rodriguez, President of Polec Mexico.
One of the most important drivers for the invitation made by the Technical Committee to POLEC is the fact that Technosoil is environmentally friendly, non-toxic, water-resistant, and eliminates significant costs associated with material transport and handling.
"We are very pleased to be working with Polec in this tremendous opportunity that will enable us to prove the potential for this product to be an extremely cost efficient construction alternative. The construction cost using Technosoil is only $110,000 US Dollars per kilometer. This is a considerable and significant cost saving over current construction methods. Furthermore, this project could generate $12 million US Dollars in product sales per year. The company expects to have the results of this submission in the next 15 days," comments Mr. Bernardo Camacho Chavarria.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #2

Tommy's integration with the Rangers is as rocky as ever in "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" #2. As the team dynamics remain tense after the incident at the bridge, Rita Repulsa sends Scorpina to attack Tommy. There are certainly a few hiccups in the issue; artist Hendry Prasetya doesn't always capture emotion in the characters' faces, and the Rita-Tommy plotline moves strangely. However, Prasetya's strong, readable action scenes and Higgins' surprising character work keep the freshness and fun in the story. All told, this is a thoroughly enjoyable issue.
Prasetya's fight choreography is generally great. Though he occasionally chooses an odd angle in Tommy's battle with Scorpina, his work is mostly readable and dramatic. He really shines in all-Ranger fights, with wider, livelier panels that call to mind the campier, clearly-telegraphed action of the original series. However, I do wish the moments of contact looked more forceful. The hyperbolic kicks, punches and sword clashes in the "Power Rangers" show (always accompanied by an equally dramatic "Hy-yah!") were a huge part of the fun. When the team clashes in this series, I don't get that same sense of force and energy. In addition, Prasetya's simpler lines — often an asset in the fight scenes — don't always convey the emotion in characters' faces, and so their expressions can look blank or unreadable.
Plot-wise, the action around Rita's attempts to re-indoctrinate Tommy move in fits and starts. While Rita's devil-on-your-shoulder routine is quite effective, the crescendo at the end feels like it comes out of nowhere, and the escalation between Jason and Tommy reads as artificial. However, outside of this storyline, Higgins also includes some unexpectedly genuine, effective character work. Billy opens up about his insecurities, Trini shows her heart and thoughtfulness as a mentor and Jason demonstrates his gentler side as a sensei. These scenes add nuance and fullness to the characters' traditional roles, and they help "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" feel like a real team book. Admittedly, Zack has been short-changed thus far; aside from a brief hint about his trouble sleeping, he hasn't had one of these illuminating scenes. Hopefully, Higgins will address that in the coming issues, as these moments are a huge part of what makes "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" work. Nostalgia appeal aside, this series can only rehash the existing show for so long before dropping reader interest. It's more rewarding to see the creative team dig a little deeper and give us another look at a beloved property.
Steve Orlando and Corin Howell's "Ongoing Adventures of Bulk & Skull" short was even shorter than usual in this issue, with only two pages of story. Despite the broad buffoonery of its title characters, the vivid, caricature-lite art and self-important dialogue still make me smirk.
All told, "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" does plenty of justice to its much-loved, much-meme'd source material. Though the main plotline still isn't moving smoothly, this issue nails its small moments and big battles. For now, that's more than enough to entertain.

How I Commune with God on my Morning Commute
02/18/2015 in: Customer Feedback, Inspirationon
From Guest Blogger: Ashley LaMar
In about 15 minutes I'm going to be starting my weekday commute to work. My commute looks like this: a 5-minute walk to the train station, waiting 5-10 minutes for the train to arrive, a 25-minute train ride, waiting 5-10 minutes for the bus to arrive, a 15-minute bus ride, and a 5-minute walk to my office. My total morning commute time is 1 hour – 1 hour and 15 minutes and approximately 45 minutes of that is spent either riding the transit system or waiting. What do I do during the time? I read. I used to read a novel on my Kindle but ever since I've discovered the free Olive Tree Bible App I use this time for Bible study.
Note: This is not a sponsored post by Olive Tree, I just love their app and really wanted to share it with you.
I have two faith-based apps on my iPad that I use in the morning. The first is The Christian's Daily Challenge. I read it in the morning when I first wake up before I shower, eat breakfast, and start my day. I ruminate on it and let it sink it while I'm getting dressed for work. Then, when I head out on my commute I open Olive Tree, read the same verse that The Christian's Daily Challenge referred to, and delve deeper into study.
The other day on my commute I was reading through the book of Matthew again and, while reading about the immaculate conception and the birth of Jesus I noticed something that I hadn't paid much attention to before and that was the frequent references to the Angels of God communicating with Joseph and the Magi through dreams. Every time I noticed the reference to an Angle communicating via dreams I highlighted it using the Olive Tree highlight tool. It's actually really cool because you can set different color highlights to mean different things such as highlighting quotes or passages to memorize in yellow and verses about grace and love in pink.
Did you notice the little green arrow at the bottom of the page? Well…there is a ton of special hidden features down there! Just swipe the arrow up and you are able to access related verses, expanded detail on the people, the places, and the topics discussed on that page. You can also click through to check out maps, images, sermons, videos, etc on the people, places and topics. I admit I'm kind of a sucker for Bible maps and I love seeing how the regions discussed in the Bible correlate to the world as we know it today.
If you click on one of the topics the app will bring up a list of other places in the Bible where the same subject is discussed. That is one of my favorite features.
Plus there is a built-in store that you can access from within the app to buy books on theology and Bible history, Christian eBooks, Devotionals, Prayer, and Marriage & Family. A few of my current favorites are:
- Breaking Free Day by Day: A Year of Walking in Liberty by Beth Moore ($8.99)
- A Busy Woman's Guide to Prayer by Cheri Fuller ($14.99)
- Table Graces for the Family by Thomas Nelson ($12.99)
- This Momentary Marriage by John Piper ($9.99)
I love that you can buy the books from the in-app store and, in many cases, the books are cheaper than if you bought them on Amazon.
It's an amazing app for Bible Study and it's perfect for my commute. It allows me to commune with God in the morning as I start my day and again in the evening as I am drawing my day to a close and heading home to my family. I have noticed that I have developed more patience on my morning commute and been less irritable with crowds and delays as I start my day off in a peaceful place. I have also noticed that I return home at the end of the day less stressed and frustrated because I've spent time with the Lord, laid my stresses and cares upon Him and returned home with a joyful heart.
As I mentioned earlier, this isn't a sponsored post and the app is free on all devices iPhone, iPad (like I used it) and Android. It's both Mac and Windows compatible and it is, hands-down, the absolute BEST Bible Study app I have found. If you're interested you can get it here.
What do you think? Think you'll check it out? What tools do you use for your Bible Study?

This is a great article and I couldn't agree more. I have been using it for a long time. I used the "Read the Bible in one year " reading plan and finished it Dec. 30, 2014 (New Years Resolution). I'm going back now and doing an in-depth study of Psalms. Also, since I am fired up, I started a 1 Minute Bible Study Blog: http://bibledog88.wordpress.com
Olivetree is a great study help to collect my thoughts for this. Again,thanks for this great article.
Dear Ashley,
Thanks so much for your great post. Me too, I enjoy to the full the Olive Tree Bible Study App for just over 3 years now and consider it the best Bible Study App ever, with those plenty of features, tools, options, etc. and kind support too.
Though I am used to work and study on the Word of God effectively in a sense that I try to get the most out of it any second all the time, your contribution serves me, I mean has an added value to me.
Thanks, Ashley and Olive Tree Team!
I love your post, I wish I could get my entire church to use the Olive Tree app it's priceless! And I'm trying.
One observation I've had is that it would be nice if the OT App had a Audible feature so as you walk or drive you could keep up with your reading. Hopefully this is in the works. currently I have to use another App. "Bible.is" for this function. But it lacks some of the translations I prefer. So I'm hoping this will be added soon.
Please be aware that the new Olive Tree software app for Android which installed on my Nook automatically simply does not work. My favorite Bible Software for the device I own (Nook 7″ Color Tablet with last available Android Software installed for that device) is now virtually unusable. The old Olive Tree while not perfect worked pretty well. I was hoping the upgrades would work out the kinks. Instead they just made things worse. I want to go back but I don't even know where to begin. It is probably partially a Nook Tablet and older Android software issue. But that should have been figured out before it self installed. 🙁 –DeanKS

Location: Pipestone
Travel Adventures, Trials and Treats
Gorgeous Sunset in Hartney, Manitoba
Before I post our next artist blog and interview, I thought I would share some highlights and discoveries of our journey. We are currently in Ontario but haven't really updated our adventures since Saskatchewan. When we crossed over the Saskatchewan/Manitoba border (first time for Gary, Marli and me but not sure about Arty), I half expected it to look completely different than Saskatchewan and Alberta. I was surprised when it did indeed have some obvious differences. The first thing I noticed was the shoulders on the highway were graded but not paved and there were surprisingly many more trees. It is still relatively flat but the farmers seem to farm around the many clumps.
We arrived in a desolate looking place called Pipestone hoping to find cheap camping with the basic but necessary amenities; bathroom. What I found was a rickety broken-down outhouse with the door on one hinge. This has been one of our challenges living on the road; trying to locate free or bargain priced campgrounds as we are working on maintaining a relatively strict budget and, in fact, come under budget if we can. This campground was no bargain at $20/night and so we moved on.
Another challenge we have faced is the internet usage. We purchased a mobile internet stick from Telus before leaving Calgary and discovered three things about it so far; it is possible to use most if not all of one's 2 GB's for the month in less than a month, it is basically useless if you are visiting Manitoba and parts of Ontario, and don't try to use it if you just crossed over the USA border back into Canada or you may find, like we did, 15 MB of data used and roaming charges of $5/MB. Man, there is so much you can learn from experience!
Our next stop was Hartney, Manitoba where we found Pat Jackson and Janice McBrien for our next two upcoming interviews. The road into Hartney left a lot to the imagination when it comes to improvement and so it crossed my mind what we might find for a town. We were both pleasantly surprised at the quaint little community with adorable small town charm. We found the campground to be just what we were looking for and a bargain at $15/night. The internet problem still loomed but we found that driving around will sometimes lead to the discovery of unsecured internet. In this case, the local library was to be just the place for it and we were able to find some more low cost camping possiblities from a website called FreeCamping.com. The next day, after our interviews, we were on the road again heading east in search of the next stop.
Wawanesa would be our next stop (home of Wawanesa Insurance). Their municipal campground will be lovely when it is finished but in the mean time we stayed the night for free as it wasn't officially opened (meaning we could stay but no money was changing hands at that point). Wawanesa reminds me of another challenge we have faced especially in the rural prairie provinces when it comes to eating. These communities have tiny little grocery stores with basic prepackaged foods that Gary and I don't eat so it has been hard to find organic choices and even whole wheat bread (although there has been a nice selection of local meats). As we have noticed, many large vegetable gardens are growing in almost all the backyards and so I assume there is no demand for what we are looking for. Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan had this awesome organic store called Alternative Foods which we took the opportunity to squeeze as much food as we could in our tiny fridge. Two other lifestyle choices that are important to Gary and I are composting and recycling. The best thing, I have found, is to avoid packaging as much as possible but there again even the produce seems to come wrapped in plastic with a styrofoam tray. We do cart around a bag of recycling until we can find a place to deposit it. As far as the composting goes, we find an appropriate place along our route, dig a small hole and bury it and then let Mother Nature take it from there. There are certainly many logistics to work out on this trip and I am sure there will be more to come.

Shocking American Idol - Not My Idol
The declination of an American Reality Standard is on the rise and it is the American Idol. With last nights reveal of the new American Idol as Kris Allen, I felt we have slipped past being a responsible viewing community to just choosing the worst choice. Not only was KRIS supposed to be gone and off the show 6 weeks ago, but the American Idol Favorite was not chosen. I almost feel like Kris is this years Sanjaya.
Clearly Adam Lambert has the more superior voice and control. I don't fear for Adam - as Hard Rocker Daughtry from 2 seasons ago has made it himself and he was voted off in the #3 spot. I am sure that Adam will land a great contract. I think a great disservice was done to the recording industry and American Idol has lost a bit of it's glamour.
Rock on Lambert. I, for one, do not believe I will be returning next season.

Wendy Yue designs the type of jewelry that makes me wish I could live inside her head, just for a few minutes. Her deep fascination with wildlife and the magic of nature is abundant in every piece of one-of-a-kind jewelry she creates. A Hong Kong native, Wendy has spent a lifetime traveling, dreaming and creating. It should come as no surprise then, that her ideas on COUTURE's spirit animal come direct from one of nature's most mythical animals.
COUTURE: How many years have you been exhibiting at COUTURE?
Wendy Yue: 2015 will be our 6th year, since 2010.
COUTURE: COUTURE turns 20 this year….what do you think COUTURE's birthday theme song should be?
WY: Happy by Pharrell Williams, because it's the vibe of COUTURE when designers and buyers come together to celebrate these special days.
COUTURE: If COUTURE were an animal, what would it be and why?
WY: A WOLF – Keep marching on as a pack!
COUTURE: What do you consider the highlight of COUTURE each year?
WY: The designers always come first so I would say the Couture Design Awards is always the biggest highlight, not to mention all the wonderful breakfasts, finger foods, and cocktails for designers and buyers to mingle upon.
COUTURE: What single piece of jewelry are you most excited to showcase this year?
WY: Our "Exotic Seahorse" cuff and ring set – beautiful colors and composition!
COUTURE: Whose jewelry, other than your own, are you most looking forward to seeing?
WY: I look forward to seeing every designer- you never know what you may find, every year is a new surprise!
COUTURE: Coffee or Tea?
WY: Camomile tea.
COUTURE: What's your "secret weapon" for tackling Las Vegas?
WY: My wonderful staff of course- keeping every department focused with my constant excitement is the secret weapon and motivation.
COUTURE: What's your earliest/most prominent memory of COUTURE?
WY: It was a nervous and huge transition for me as the first show where I showcased myself as the brand "WENDY YUE" officially. COUTURE is certainly most supportive and central to all eclectic and creative designers as well as the classic and glamorous ones!

Homeless with an iguana :D
I've never.been a big reptile or even an animal person ever in my 23 years. I've been semi homeless off an on throught the past year, but I've had an amazing little friend the past year and everythings alright now but this.little guy is a best buddy, resilient, and has really made my life bright again, just by being....a lizard I guess idk lol. He lived with me in a 1986 isuzu trooper for nearly a year when I was living off of unemployment from being laid off when the trooper was not even running. I use to feed him varieties of veggies I would get from subway. I would ask them to put all the veggies on the side in a cup and feed him spinich tomatoes bannana peppers and other veggies. He sniffs around like a puppy when hes gotta go :P I didn't buy him or want him at first. I got stuck with him when I agreed to watch him for a friend who never came back. I have no idea his age, but he is small. He was very aggressive when I first got him. He would not let anyone even touch him. Now he sleeps on my chest at nights and I hand feed him and have a uvb light and heat pad etc to give him the things he really needs rather.than just covering him up and hope my body heat will even keep him alive during the cold. But he made it and is great! He is a great little buddy and I know the living conditions may have stressed him in the long run but please know I had no one who would take him and only a cardboard box to keep him in when I was first assignee to him. He is alive and great today. Just wanted to share because I don't have many prod I know here :( especially not anyone who likes my little giggly monster. As soon as I can get photos I will have them up!

This news could have major effects for the wealth management industry
Keeping FINRA, the SEC and the Department of Labor (DOL) happy is a challenge that all financial advisors, including RIAs, wirehoue advisors, and, most recently, robo-advisors are currently facing. Ultimately, these self-regulating bodies protect the interests of investors like you and me.
From Robert Powell @ Marketwatch:
"[Joel Bruckenstein, publisher of T3 Technology Hub]…, referring to a recent FINRA report on digital investment advice, suggested robo advisers meet the fiduciary standards established under the Labor Department's conflict of interest rule more so than many human advisers."
Given the automatic, rules-based nature and technology basis of some of the better robo platforms, it could be said that in certain cases, Robos could best their human counterparts, especially "advisors" who are not actually fiduciaries, like commission-based brokers, insurance salespeople.
"Robos would do it more efficiently than probably 40% to 50% — and that's being very conservative — of the people who call themselves advisers today who are not fiduciaries," he said. "So, it all depends on who you are looking at. And where the bar ends up being, because it seems to be a moving bar depending on who's in office and who is trying to revise the rule."
Whether you're using an advisor, robo, or something in between, it's important to do your diligence and check FINRA's BrokerCheck and the SEC's Investment Adviser Public Disclosure website before investing.
Here's a short list of the SEC-registered Robos we recommend:
- Personal Capital – best for do-it-yourself free financial planning advice, this is our favorite free planning tool.
- FutureAdvisor – powered by the largest asset manager in the world, BlackRock, FutureAdvisor delivers high-powered analysis to your portfolios.
- Betterment – automated investing service that aims to provide optimized investment returns for individual, IRA, 401k, and rollover accounts.
- LendingRobot – automated investment tool that allows you to take part in peer to peer (p2p) lending. It can help you start investing automatically with ease.
We believe if you're going to use an advisor, use a fee-based, independent fiduciary:
- Our Find an Advisor Tool can help you find one in your area

Stool. Saturday , April 15th , 2017 - 15:20:02 PM
Memory Return Mechanism. - Also as I have mentioned on the Swivel, it is built with all quality materials. The difference is that this mechanism is very unique. Let me mention that this style of swivel is used on all the stools manufactured with wrought iron, and swivel stools with backs.
Oak Bar Stools: When talking about furniture bar stools, the conversation will commonly lead to oak bar stools. In all likelihood no other tree has been utilized more to create premium furniture than the oak tree. Besides being exceedingly strong, it has to be one of the most stunning textures of wood known. Top manufacturers take pride in crafting oak bar stools. These stools fit in just about any type of area so you don't have to do any unnecessary redecorating to find something to match.
Red Bar Stools: While white is in all probability the most favorite color of furniture bar stools, nothing illuminates a room like red bar stools. It is a color that has to be selected cautiously, though. There are so many unique tones of red that not every room can be decorated with them. Red doesn't match well with some colors, so keep that in mind when you're considering purchasing them. They do have the advantage of being able to be kept cleaner than the white ones, though.

As production on Star Wars: Episode Seven ramps up, interest in that galaxy far, far away is also increasing. And the "classic trilogy" is getting lots of attention since it looks like the new film is going to reunite Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher in their iconic roles.
Riding the wave of anticipation is Lucas Books with a new line of Star Wars adventure novels set in the period during the rebellion against the Evil Galactic Empire. (For an old school geek like myself, that's the timeframe I care about most.) The latest book to explore that era is "Star Wars: Honor Among Thieves" by James S. A. Corey. It tells a story that takes place during the classic trilogy and is teased as follows:

"The past is a foreign country; they do things differently there." L. P. Hartley
There are two full-time members of staff in the department.
The aims of the history department are:
• To make the study of history stimulating and enjoyable and to encourage a lasting interest in the past
• To develop pupils' understanding of the past
• To investigate historical events and people, change and continuity, cause and effect
• To examine historical sources critically
• To develop an understanding of bias and propaganda.
History at the Queen's School
History is a compulsory subject in Years 7 to 9. The National Curriculum for Key Stage 3 forms the basis of our teaching. In year 7 pupils learn about life in the Medieval period (c.1066-1485); in year 8 pupils move on to look at life in Britain in the Early Modern Period (Tudors & Stuarts, 1485-1714); in year 9 pupils study modern American history, including the campaign for civil rights and the USA's involvement in Vietnam; this is in preparation for GCSE study, of which these topics are a part.
The subject is optional at GCSE. We follow the Edexcel course which covers the following key areas:
- Crime & Punishment Throughout Time
- Early Elizabethan England, 1558-188
- British America, 1713-83
- The USA, 1954-1783: Empire and Revolution
At AS level and A-level our pupils study alternatives in Early Modern British and Modern European History with the opportunity to develop their independent study skills in Year 13 when they take part in an historical enquiry into the causes of the holocaust.
Where possible we try to take advantage of the history on our doorstep.
Year 7 pupils study the medieval period and this includes a visit to Ruthin Castle for a medieval banquet.
Year 8 pupils have visited the new International Slavery Museum at the Liverpool Maritime Museum to develop their understanding of the slave trade.
Year 9 pupils have visited the Holocaust Centre in Nottingham as part of their study of the Holocaust and met with a survivor.
We have organised residential trips for Years 10 and 11 to visit Ypres, World War I battlefields and Berlin.


text: ELF_MEMORY(3) BSD Library Functions Manual ELF_MEMORY(3) NAME elf_memory -- process an ELF or ar(1) archive mapped into memory LIBRARY library ``libelf'' SYNOPSIS #include <libelf.h> Elf * elf_memory(char *image, size_t size); DESCRIPTION Function elf_memory() is used to process an ELF file or ar(1) archive whose image is present in memory. Argument image points to the start of the memory image of the file or archive. Argument size contains the size in bytes of the memory image. The ELF descriptor is created for reading (i.e., analogous to the use of elf_begin(3) with a command argument value of ELF_C_READ). RETURN VALUES Function elf_memory() returns a pointer to a new ELF descriptor if successful, or NULL if an error occurred. The return value may be queried for the file type using elf_kind(3). EXAMPLES To read parse an elf file, use: int fd; void *p; struct stat sb; Elf *e; ... if ((fd = open("./elf-file", O_RDONLY)) < 0 || fstat(fd, &sb) < 0 || (p = mmap(NULL, sb.st_size, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, fd, (off_t) 0)) == MAP_FAILED) { ... handle system error ... } if ((e = elf_memory(p, sb.st_size)) == NULL) { ... handle elf(3) error ... } ... use ELF descriptor "e" here ... ERRORS Function elf_memory() can fail with the following errors: [ELF_E_ARGUMENT] A NULL value was used for argument image or the value of argument sz was zero. [ELF_E_HEADER] The header of the ELF object contained an unsupported value in its e_ident[EI_CLASS] field. [ELF_E_HEADER] The header of the ELF object contained an unsupported value in its e_ident[EI_DATA] field. [ELF_E_RESOURCE] An out of memory condition was detected. [ELF_E_SEQUENCE] Function elf_memory() was called before a working version was set using elf_version(3). [ELF_E_VERSION] The argument image corresponds to an ELF file with an unsupported version.

By Laila Kearney
(Reuters) - The Washington Monument will remain closed indefinitely due to elevator malfunctions that have forced several closures of what is one of the U.S. capital's most popular tourist attractions, the National Parks Service said on Monday.
The 555-foot (169-meter) monument, erected in honor of President George Washington in the 19th century, was scheduled to have opened in mid-September after its most recent closure began on Aug. 17.
"Despite the continuing work on the Washington Monument elevator, we have not been able to determine the causes of the ongoing reliability issues," the National Park Service, which oversees the monument, said in a statement. "As a result, we have made the difficult decision not to reopen the Washington Monument until we can modernize the elevator control system."
Electrical short-circuiting has forced the closure of the marble obelisk about two-dozen times since it reopened in May 2014 following repairs for earthquake damage sustained in 2012.
In an incident in August, tourists in the monument's elevator were forced to exit using stairs because the elevator doors failed to open.
Work will continue on the monument, which attracts about 600,000 visitors a year, for an unknown period of time, the Parks Service said.
The agency said it expected to announce additional details about the work and duration of the closure in the next couple of weeks.

Tony Bernard, a senior program manager on the BizTalk Team revealed today on the BizTalk/EDI blog that HIPAA support is getting rolled into the new "native" EDI engine in R2; meaning there will no longer be a separate HIPAA accelerator package for R2.
This can only be good news for BizTalk customers looking out for R2, which is shaping up to be a very interesting release adding a lot of very valuable and useful features for customers. On a side note, I personally haven't used the HIPAA or HL7 accelerators since they are not standards used around here.

If a man lived next door to you, or on your street, went to prison and got out and moved back, would you feel safe? no any normal person would have fear.
If a drug mule/smuggler lived next door or on your street, went to prison, moved back after, would you feel as if you're unsafe? It is very unlikely.
The seriousness of a drug offence in comparison to a multitude of other offences, shows a lesser sentence should be handed out, even for these men to spend a considerable amount of their life in prison would be more humane and understandable than capital punishment.
Whilst I do agree that it is a shame that these two men, along with Rodrigo Gularte and five other prisoners were executed, and yes, to us, executing drug smugglers does seem excessive. However, The crime they committed, 'Production, transit, import and possession of narcotics', carries the risk of the death penalty in Indonesia.
It follows, if you commit a crime in that country where the punishment may include execution, you are caught and arrested, and tried and found guilty of a crime where the punishment may be the death penalty, and then you are sentenced to be executed, and then you lose your appeal to overturn your sentence, and are refused clemency, then yes, you should be executed.
People cannot be executed as soon as they leave the courtroom, because they need to be given the ability to lodge an appeal, or ask for clemency, as presumably accounted for in the Indonesian justice code. As for why they were kept alive for 10 years? In the US, the only member of the western world to still use capital punishment, it was found in 2010 that death row inmates are kept alive for 15 years past their sentence on average. I also fail to see how being on death row for 10 years is less preferable to being executed after 6 months. It is still time spent alive, even in an awful place like an Indonesian prison. The idea of rehabilitating prisoners on death row is incredibly important. They were sentenced to a crime where the government decided that the only thing they could do to protect the outside population is to have them executed. There would be no point giving them opportunity to ask for clemency if they are not given an opportunity for penance.
'If a man lived next door to you, or on your street, went to prison and got out and moved back, would you feel safe? no any normal person would have fear.
If a drug mule/smuggler lived next door or on your street, went to prison, moved back after, would you feel as if you're unsafe? It is very unlikely.'
I am not sure what is meant by this, that a normal criminal, one who may be guilty of serious assault or arson would elicit fear from a member of the general population, but a drug trafficker is not a scary person? I would argue, that ringleaders of heroin traffickers are people that many people would be afraid of, because they could for instance try and coerce people you care about to smuggle drugs and risk being put to death, or perhaps increase the supply of heroin, a particularily destructive narcotic, to the local area.
If this was to be a debate on whether Indonesian laws on drugs need to be revised, I would fully agree with you that they do. But unfortunately, these two men committed a crime considered serious enough to require the death penalty, and that's the risk you face when moving drugs in Indonesia.
