As Thanksgiving quickly approaches so do the first few cold fronts of the year. With these cold fronts comes a migration of mullet, ballyhoo and pilchards that stirs up the pelagic species like Wahoo, Sailfish and Kingfish. The timing couldn't be better because a few Kingfish in the Yeti can make for a Thanksgiving side dish or appetizer that your guests will love.
Here is my favorite recipe for smoked Kingfish spread and the one I will use for the big meal but also for several football games. I know it is good because there have never been any leftovers.

NEW International Development Secretary Penny Mordaunt must prioritise the funding of free education and healthcare in poorer countries if she is serious about improving lives, trade justice activists Global Justice Now (GJN) told the Morning Star today.
GJN campaigner Aisha Dodwell said that Ms Mordaunt was maintaining the status quo of her disgraced predecessor Priti Patel, who quit after being exposed for holding unauthorised meetings with Israeli officials aimed at diverting aid cash to the Israeli army.
It follows Ms Mordaunt's threat in the Telegraph today that the Department for International Development (DfID) will reduce foreign aid to countries that fail to use the money to "help their citizens."
"It will no longer be enough for a project simply to be achieving good things," she claimed.
"I want the governments of developing countries to step up and take responsibility for investing in their own people, in healthcare or education, for example."
But the telling point Ms Mordaunt made was that she wanted to make sure that aid spending was in Britain's national interest.
Ms Dodwell said: "Penny Mordaunt is following in the footsteps of her predecessor Priti Patel in setting out a vision for UK aid that is primarily focused on securing the UK's national interests. This is wrong.
"UK aid should only be used to end poverty — not as a sweetener for post-Brexit trade deals, nor as a slush fund for Foreign Office security interests.
"If our new Development Secretary is serious about supporting health and education systems around the world then she should fund the development of publicly run schools and hospitals.
"DfID could provide both financial and technical support to share expertise from the NHS and state school systems we have here in the UK. Instead, DFID has spent years encouraging the privatisation of education and health across the developing world.
"Penny Mordaunt says she wants governments of developing countries to invest in their own public services.
"In which case she should be prioritising shutting down the UK's tax havens and ensuring a fair global tax regime that means developing countries' governments receive the money they need."
In November MPs on the international development committee said there was a lack of evidence to support spending aid on private education providers such as Bridge International Academies, widely criticised for its horrendous paid-for shack schools staffed by unqualified, script-reading teachers in Africa and India.

text: On Sunday we made our final offer on the property we were hoping to purchase and it was accepted! Hooray! We are set to close on June 22nd (I'm due on July 19th!) and still have the inspections to get through and all of that. Our current home was just inspected today but we don't really expect anything to cause a glitch with that seeing that we've replaced pretty much everything that had caused a major problem over the last few years. It appears as though the current buyers on our house have secured financing so if all still goes according to plan we seem to be free and clear. Below are a few pictures of our new house that I copied from the MLS site. When we actually get moved into the house and what not I'll be posting many more, but for now here's just a peek at our new home! I'm particularly excited about my new kitchen, it's got a window above the sink!! YAY!

Pollin died Tuesday at the age of 85. Team spokesman Matt Williams said Pollin suffered from corticobasal degeneration, a rare brain disease. Williams said that Pollin had originally been diagnosed with progressive supranuclear palsy but the diagnosis was later changed. The conditions are similar, both affecting mobility, balance and speech.
Pollin made an initial donation of $1 million to the Society for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy in hopes of finding a cure and later donated another $2 million.
President Barack Obama issued a statement paying tribute to Pollin, who bought his NBA franchise in 1964 and was the league's longest-tenured owner.
"Abe believed in Washington, D.C., when many others didn't - putting his own fortune on the line to help revitalize the city he loved," the president's statement said. "He was committed to the teams he guided, generous to those who needed it most, and as loyal to the people of D.C. as they were to him."

Do you ever consider AAC for children who are verbal but highly unintelligible? How do you determine how much of the child's speech is understood? Do you go by how many words you can decipher in context or out of context? Do you take into consideration familiar vs. unfamiliar listeners? Cindy Simpson recommended this article and related documents (below) as a systematic way of determining intelligibility in a variety of situations for kiddos who may need technology to supplement verbal communication. As you look through these documents, it is important to also consider that, as you know, kiddos will use the system of communication that is the most efficient. So, it will be very uncommon for this to be a viable option. However, if you come across one of these rare cases, it is important to consider these different contexts as well as the academic impact.

HAMILTON and the Angel of America
I've been wondering for awhile about the best way to "participate" with the election madness without getting sucked into a mental/emotional place that I don't want to even experience, much less spread around. I normally wouldn't bother with the idea of participation; I'd just avoid the whole mess, go to the polls and vote, and put my attention elsewhere. Except now, I'm seeing it differently. It's not good enough to avoid the hysteria....I'd rather find and offer a stance that is more likely to produce what I want: peace, upliftment, and a vibrational frequency that will expand my sense of well-being....and then share that stance.
It's kind of interesting to me that "peace" now includes having a sense of purpose, and acting on it...it's also interesting that I'm no longer satisfied to segregate my awareness of the election, to put it in a room by itself where it can be safely ignored....
I'd rather be seeing it with the same open curiosity that I bring to what I'm happy to focus on, which for now is collaboration with unseen beings who are available for partnership. Guides, Angels, the Masters, Teachers and Loved Ones of the Akashic Records, the Sidhe...it's a big world out there, with a lot of help that is available for the asking...or perhaps I should say, with a lot of partnership that is available.
The difference between "help" and "partnership" has to do with how I see myself. Do I have some strength of my own? And am I willing to use it? Or am I thinking that I have nothing worthwhile, and the subtle beings have it all? I've learned a lot from reading David Spangler's writings ( Conversations with the Sidhe, and Subtle Worlds: An Explorer's Field Notes), largely about how important it is to value my sovereignty and agency as a human being. Yes, I came here to learn, but I don't have to make myself into an entirely empty vessel in order to do that. So now what?
In a recent Gathering in Tivoli, I decided that it was crucially important to read from Spangler's most recent Views from the Borderland, yr 6, vol 2, (available by subscription only, from lorian.org), because he was writing about the Angel of America...
All human groups...attract some kind of overlighting spirit, usually part of the angelic line of evolution. The function of such a being is to work with the humans within its care as a group to advance their evolution. How successful such a spirit may be at accomplishing this depends on many factors, including its own level of experience and the openness and willingness--and love-- of the humans with whom it is working. It is quite possible for a human group to create obstructions and boundaries that prevent such an overlighting being from doing its work, just as it's possible for a group of humans to come into a deep and profound collaboration with its angelic companion. (p.4)
And from one of Spangler's subtle colleagues:
There are three major ideas which the Angel is fostering within the field of life that is the United States. These are Sovereignty and the power of agency, freedom, and the ability to collaborate across differences in order to create wholeness....The United States came into being to be a place where all three ideas could be fostered in a deliberate and democratic manner, thereby accelerating their development and embodiment. It is the Angel of America's task to help this happen. In so doing, it works primarily with collective energies, though it can certainly inspire or overlight specific individuals if they attune to it, and if their lives offer an opportunity to advance the expression of these three ideas. (pp. 10-11)
Spangler got to talking about how we might align with the Angel--by attuning to the land, or through history and symbol (our founding documents, or the Gettysburg Address, or the American flag, the Liberty Bell, etc)--and I got the idea, but I couldn't get in...
I've never been a fan of American history, exactly. My sense of all the symbols of America is that they're empty, or worse, distorted. I remember a conversation I had with my then-husband...we were looking a houses, and I mentioned that I was put off by houses that had American eagles on the front. Alan wanted to know why, so I said, "If you were looking for people who were broad-minded, open to new thoughts, creative, inventive, etc, would you go to a house that had an eagle on it?" Even though we almost never saw anything the same way, he had to agree....
So if there has been a distortion of the symbols, it probably runs deeper than that. Something has gotten old, stuck, and empty, and I bet I'm not the only one who feels it. Which means we have to get in touch with the aliveness of the American Dream...not the media version that has diminished the dream into a frantic hunt for possessions and status , but the real thing...what the Angel is here to nurture: sovereignty and agency, the ability to make your life as you want to---freedom, to be yourself and be of value---and the ability and willingness to collaborate across differences to foster wholeness. We have an amazing opportunity here to do that, which gets lost in the shuffle of daily living.
As I was reading to my Gathering, I suddenly remembered Hamilton, the hip-hop musical that burst on the scene like a super-nova. I started talking about how it is the perfect story of America's beginnings, complete with Hamilton the immigrant, who made his life and the Treasury system out of his own intelligence, and Lin-Manuel Miranda who created the musical out of his fascination with and connection to Alexander Hamilton. Fabulous exciting music, and lyrics, and multi-racial casting, all designed to get us excited about our country, and wow!
As I was talking, I felt the magnitude of the huge multi-faceted reach of Miranda, and Hamilton, reaching toward...what?...toward the best we could be as a country. My heart opened, and tears came, and I was Connected!
"Hamilton"--Go to YouTube, the whole score is there, and you can see the poetry slam at the White House when Miranda introduced it. PBS just showed a special on it. The cast is doing programs with schools, so there's a bunch of kids who are being introduced to our history in a way that makes sense to them....The whole thing is magnificent! And for me it was a straight shot to the Angel of America.....
I'm sure that as much as we need a more productive focus now, before the election, it will be twice as important after the election. No matter what happens, there's going to be dissatisfaction. I want the highest and best for my country. I want to align with the Angel of America, to live and teach the principles it fosters. I want to keep pointing towards whatever we can do to bring that to pass.
Spangler says: ...what I am after is to attune to the felt sense of the country....What is the spirit of the country, and how does the felt sense of that Spirit live in me, in my body, in my feelings, in my mind?
Once I have this felt sense in my body and I feel attuned in myself to the spirit of my country, then I reach out in my mind and heart for the overlighting Angel who is the spiritual core of that felt sense. But at the same time, standing in this felt sense and in my own Sovereignty, I also send out love to my environment as a blessing to my country. For in so doing, I am taking an inner action equivalent to the actions the Angel takes in also holding the country in love and blessing. I am sharing the task. I am creating resonance.
Once I have in body and mind the felt sense of what it is like to be in resonance with the Angel of my country, I can attune to that at any time. As I go about my work, as I travel about in my car, as I meet fellow citizens or visitors to my country, I can attune to the felt sense of the Angel and from that inner place, send forth a blessing. (pp. 27-28).
So for me, it has started with Hamilton. Please find what does it for you, reach to the Angel, and love what you see around you. Resonate high.

A few days ago, Colombian union activist and friend Ms. Liliany Obando, was rearrested and thrown back into prison. In some of my earlier blog posts, between 2008 and 2012, I documented the long and torturous path Ms. Obando had gone through. A single mother of two young children she had been jailed in a hell hole prison for over three and a half years on trumpted up charges of supporting "terrorism". Finally released two years ago to house arrest and a $400,000 US fine, she has now been rearrested. Just days ago she was asked by a judicial officer of some sort to accompany him to an "interview". Once she had involuntarily left her apartment, she was thrown into a solitary confinement jail cell, and charged with breaking her house arrest conditions by leaving her apartment. She feels she is being blatantly revictimised because of her unflagging opposition to the prison and government authorities. She is a very brave women, who deserves our support.
On Wednesday I received an urgent email from her support group, the International Network in Solidarity with Colombia's Political Prisoners (INSPP), asking that I go to Bogota immediatey to act as a human rights observer/shield for her and her family. So 24 hours later I was in Bogota with her family, and visited Ms. Obando in a former Colombian secret service (DAS) jail and torture center. She was on a hunger strike, but ended it today after she fell due to weakness, striking and injuring her head. We are now trying to get her medical attention and legal assistance. There seems to be a jurisdictional tug of war going on between some court authorities, who want to release her, and the prison authorities and government, who want to hold on to her. If any of my Spanish speaking friends would like to help, please feel free to phone Ms. Obando's judge, Madam Martha Jahel Amezquita, at 011-57-2846527, and politely ask in Spanish, that she release Ms. Obando back to her family.

Whlie I was here I took the opportunity to attend the Communist Party of Colombia's annual La Voz fiesta.
I brought along my Lenin cap and shaved accordingly, so I was very well received by the Colombian comrades.
I am often attacked and harassed by rabid Zionists because I am supposedly anti-Semetic, because they say that I am only concerned with attacking Israel, which obviously is not true. But even in far off Bogota, I can not avoid remembering Palestine, as the main banner at this event called for Palestine's freedom.

Wayfinder has safely moved thousands of pianos, and we are the exclusive piano movers for the Chautauqua Institution.
Beyond a Price Tag
Certain items hold value besides what may be seen on a price tag. For families, a piano can hold a lot of sentimental value.
Piano Moving Logistics
Most moving companies avoid piano moves for good reason: The process is complicated by the instrument's incredible weight and fragile nature.
There are few universal truths about pianos, because each piano is unique. Preparation is tricky, and most require careful removal of their legs and pedals before transporting. Some need their music stands, internal humidifiers, and lids removed. Each move is dependent on the piano's type, age, size, weight, model, and make.
The physical move of a piano move is tricky, too, because of the added complexity of their weight, ranging from 300 to over 1,000lbs. Safety for our moving crew, your home, and for the piano itself is not taken lightly.
Wayfinder only uses special piano moving equipment (piano boards, padding, straps, etc.) to secure pianos, and leverage their weight appropriately during transportation.
When moving a piano or any other specialty item, some companies may charge an additional fee for special items. Wayfinder does not. The cost to move any specialty item, including pianos, is included in your hourly rate or written binding estimate.
We're the best in the business at moving pianos because we do it the right way, and have been doing it for years.

Male Advances: Let's get on the same page
I was sitting at a tram stop waiting to stuff my face with delicious Neapolitan pizza, when a good friend of mine unpicked her most recent encounter with the opposite sex. Let's call her Samira* and this is how she'd gotten pulled into dating someone she was not interested in. You see, Samira was at her place of work when a colleague asked her to go over details for an up-coming project. This started out as let's grab a sandwich at lunch and culminated in a three-course steak dinner at a fancy restaurant over a bottle of red.
Samira kept me informed at every stage of this development and made it clear how uncomfortable she was feeling. Especially, when I asked to see the menu at the restaurant he'd proposed - €22 for a starter (if you know what I mean). I was really clear up front that I thought he thought this was a date. My test? If he offers to pay on his personal card - it's a date. Now, Samira is always looking for the good in people and so turned up to this fancy af restaurant with her laptop in tow. I don't need to tell you that they didn't go over her business proposal.
Somehow - I blame this on my being away for the weekend - Samira got sucked into a day trip with the little rascal. Don't get me wrong, if she had been interested in dating this person and if she hadn't been lured into these dates under the premise of her job. Then, maybe it would be sweet of him to pursue her in this way. In reality, this is massively inappropriate. But before you click off I don't think this situation is isolated to professional situations. There seems to be an entitlement about guys pursuing whoever they fancy regardless of the consequences.
For example, Samira and I were in the gym a couple weeks earlier and this massive guy comes up to us while we're just trying to get our sweat on. I only want to say this once on behalf of my whole gender (isn't generalisation fun!) - DO NOT HIT ON SOMEONE AT THE GYM. Or at the very least wait until they're heading out the door to offer your number. On this particular Wednesday evening, I had just showed Samira how to do a bent over row in a way so that she wouldn't put out her back. I've been lifting weights for over 3 years now and have done some personal training - so I was feeling pretty confident in my demonstration.
Regardless, of having seen me just spend 5 minutes explaining the move to her - and this is not the first time this has happened to us - this guy comes over. He touches her lower back encouraging her to arch it and pull her shoulders back. Yes, this is what she should've been doing to improve form. But, no it is not okay to touch or help girls in the gym without their explicit consent. At the very least, you need to ask before you touch someone - ew. So, I'm pretty pissed off to be honest. Here we are two women in a very smelly, testosterone filled gym and this guy is man-splaining how to lift better. For want of a better phrase - f off.
You might think I'm over-exaggerating at this stage, but he persisted to 'help' us for the next 40-ish minutes and as we went to leave he hit on Samira hard. She was not interested. As, I've said I have no problem with guys pursuing girls they like because in reality if she had been attracted to him then she would've been pleased. But this level of persistence is exhausting. To be honest, neither of us went to the gym for a week after this because we felt so uncomfortable we were going to run into him. Now, Samira has the similar situation at her job!
What both of these situations had in common was they both continued to pursue Samira even after she had specifically articulated she wasn't interested. It was like her rejection was really just a warm-up where she was playing hard to get. And, yes, I think Samira does need to take some of the blame for these situations because she's quick to give guys the benefit of the doubt and isn't necessarily as assertive as she could have been. Personally, I never find myself in situation as prolonged as she does because I'm very clear early on whether I'm interested or not. Normally, with some reference to me being a bitch they'll leave me alone.
Firstly, I'm so glad I see their true colours after rejection because people's who's masculinity is dented by my not being interested for whatever reason is not the kind of person I choose to be with. I think this might be why I find the gym pick up the most uncomfortable because this guy is normally wearing close-to-nothing in clothes and is coming off of a testosterone high. Secondly, can we please move away from the assumption that if a girl is not interested than she is a bitch? I'm so tired of it and no I'm not a lesbian or in a relationship either. Please just ask nicely than leave me alone if I'm not keen.
I hope this hasn't come across too negative, but I'm really sick of apologising for not being interested in guys who put themselves out there to be with me or my friends and I know a lot of girls who feel the same. By all means be polite and upfront about your intentions - at the very least it's a nice ego boost. But, don't be pushy or aggressive. In both of these cases Samira ended up wriggling out of the awkward situation after giving them both her number and getting told she was a tease for not dating the first guy. So, girls please be confident in your choice to say no and you really don't need to be rude. But, guys can you be self-assured enough to take the rejection. If anything the people who initially I haven't been attracted to, I'm more likely to give them a chance in the future based on their reaction to a no. If in doubt, kindness and respect should be the foundation of any inter-personal interactions please!
All my love, Sam

Roaster's Choice for FRENCH PRESS
What you need:
- 8 cup French Press
- Scale
- Water Kettle
- Cold filtered water
- Coarse ground Praxis coffee
- Timer
- Wooden paddle or spoon
- Thermometer (Optional)
- 5 minutes of your time
Let's brew...
Praxis Coffee uses a 15:1 water to coffee ratio for the French Press.
First, bring your cold filtered water to 202° F. While your water is coming to a boil, go ahead and grind 64 g of Praxis coffee to a coarse grind (similar to bread crumbs) and use very hot water to pre-heat your press (rinse water does not have to be boiling, we just don't want to "shock" the brewing coffee with a cold vessel).
Once your water has reached 202° F, pour out your rinse water from the press and drop all 64 g of coffee into the bottom of the press. Set your press on your scale and start your timer. Now gently pour water in a spiral motion over your entire coffee bed, filling the press half full. Wait 30 seconds, then use a spoon or wooden paddle to break the crust (the coffee layer on top) and fully submerge the coffee. Pour remaining water (963 g total) nearly to the top of the press, leaving just enough room for the top of the press to sit. Don't press the plunger down yet! At 3:45 minutes, gently plunge your coffee and serve immediately. Your total brew time should be 4 minutes. Serve your coffee immediately. Leaving coffee in the press can over-extract it.

Human Papillomavirus (HPV)
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a group of viruses that can be found throughout the world. Over 100 different types of the virus exist and of those, about 20 types are known to cause cervical cancer in women.
HPV can infect other parts of the body in both men and women and cause genital warts and other cancers including those affecting the vulva, vagina, penis, anus and some cancers of the head and neck.
The Illness
HPV is commonly transmitted by skin-to-skin contact (usually during sexual contact). Genital HPV can also be spread during oral sex and by non-sexual routes such as mother to baby.
Genital HPV infections are common and are usually self-limiting. Persistent genital infection can cause pre cancerous lesions which if left untreated can go on to cause cervical cancer in women.
There is no specific treatment available for HPV.
Recommendations for Travellers
Travel itself does not increase the risk of exposure to HPV. The HPV vaccination programme in the UK began in September 2008 and is aimed primarily at girls aged between 12-13 years. The vaccination is currently used only for use in girls and young women to prevent diseases caused by HPV, but use in young men is being considered.
Travellers should be given information about the risks of HPV and other sexually transmitted infections. Condoms may not offer complete protection against HPV.

What was the food highlight of your year?
I'll be the first to say that I'm not the biggest sweets person. I love to bake, but I'll most likely give it away. However this year, I've had some of the best sweets I've had in a while. From the amazing ice cream from Milk Sugar Love in Jersey City to that carrot cake from Wolfgang Puck's The Source, I've seem to revive my sweet tooth. As far as savory things are concerned, Sam A.M. (again in Jersey City) is by far one of my favorite spots. Unless you're at their weekly supper club, they mainly do breakfast and lunch. But I'll definitely rush over 30 mins before closing to grab a pulled poulet sandwich with an egg on top. It's just that good.
What was the music highlight of your year?
Saw some great shows and festivals this year, but nothing can top the impromptu selfie I took with Jenny Lewis at Governors Ball. And the fact that it was her idea made it so much better.
Was there a moment when food and music came together in a memorable way?
Sweetlife Festival brought food and music in such a fun way. With Sweetgreen behind the operation, they were able to bring some of the East Coast's, especially DC's, best dishes to festival goers. Not only did it taste fresh, but it was also pretty awesome to hold a freshly made banh mi in one hand and a plate of freshly shucked oysters in another then finish things off with an Astro doughnut. Then after fueling up, you can just catch Hozier, Bombay Bicycle Club and Bastille -- who were my fave acts from the fest.

With the unveiling of a ninety-two-count
indictment against top officials in world soccer,[1] U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch and the U.S. Attorney's Office in Brooklyn
have revealed the astonishing breadth of the long-suspected corruption schemes
permeating Fédération Internationale de
Football Association ("FIFA"),
FIFA's continental governing bodies, and prominent international sports-marketing
firms.[2] The allegations describe a twenty-four-year, multi-generational
conspiracy of bribes and other illicit transactions, totaling more than $200
million,[3] in
exchange for votes on proposed sponsorship and marketing deals.[4] One of the more appalling allegations suggests
FIFA officials received $10 million for their votes for South Africa to host
the 2010 World Cup, money which otherwise might have funded South Africa's
World Cup preparations.[5] The complaint names forty-one defendants,[6] including former executives of The Confederation of North, Central American and
Caribbean Association Football ("CONCACAF"),[7] The South American Football Confederation ("CONMEBOL"),[8] Traffic Sports USA, Inc.,[9] and Full Play Group S.A.[10] Eight have pleaded guilty.[11]
The scandal has
touched on several elements of international law that merit attention. First, seven defendants were detained in
Switzerland in May 2015 following the dramatic pre-dawn raid of two luxury
hotels in Zurich just days before FIFA's presidential election.[12] Two, Aaron Davidson and Eugenio Figueredo, are U.S. nationals who must
be extradited back to the United States for prosecution,[13] while the others are citizens of various other countries.[14] Second, FIFA, CONCACAF, CONMEBOL, and some of the sports marketing companies are
organizations based outside the United States. FIFA is headquartered in
Switzerland,[15] CONCACAF in the Bahamas,[16] CONMEBOL in Paraguay,[17] and Full Play Group S.A. in Argentina.[18] For their conduct to be subject to U.S. law,
there must be identifiable acts within U.S. jurisdiction. In FIFA's case,
prosecutors have cited the U.S. banking system as the crucial link between the
defendants' alleged crimes and the jurisdictional reach of the United States'
criminal-justice system.[19]
The alleged corruption
scheme operated as a classic money laundering operation.[20] One particular allegation contends that FIFA
wired three installments totaling $10 million "from a FIFA account in
Switzerland to a Bank of America correspondent account in New York City for
credit to accounts held in the names of CFU and CONCACAF, but controlled by the
defendant Jack Warner, at Republic Bank in Trinidad and Tobago."[21] Warner then allegedly diverted a percentage
of these funds into his personal account by laundering the money through a
Trinidadian supermarket chain and a real estate investment firm.[22] This use of the U.S. financial system to
channel bribery payments is the cornerstone of the prosecution's allegations
against international soccer officials.
The defendants
have been charged with crimes under The Racketeer Influenced and Corruption
Organizations Act of 1970 ("RICO").[23] RICO was adopted with the intent of
eliminating "the infiltration of organized crime and racketeering into
legitimate organizations operating in interstate commerce."[24] Originally employed to charge members of the
Mafia in prosecution-friendly federal courts with mandatory minimum sentences,
RICO has evolved to be used in cases ranging from insider trading, tax evasion
and stock parking[25] to political back scratching. [26] A successful RICO conviction requires proof
of at least two predicate offenses.[27] These include gambling, extortion, bribery,
counterfeiting, embezzlement, fraud, money laundering, and racketeering.[28]
The present defendants
are charged with racketeering, money laundering, wire fraud, and conspiracy those offenses.[29] As previously stated,[30] the prosecutors carefully limited the allegations to conduct specifically
occurring on U.S. soil. The rationale for this specificity arises from a case
awaiting examination by the U.S. Supreme Court, RJR Nabisco v. European Community.[31] The Second Circuit Court of Appeals reversed
dismissal of the European Community's claims as to a number of alleged RICO
predicates, because "Congress has clearly manifested an intent that they apply
extraterritorially."[32] To support its position, the court cited
numerous examples of predicate acts that could only be satisfied by conduct
occurring outside U.S. borders.[33] The
Supreme Court may now decide whether RICO predicates can be satisfied through
extraterritorial conduct. Because of
this ambiguity, the Department of Justice ("DOJ") carefully structured its
complaint so as to avoid risking a dismissal on the basis of satisfying RICO
predicates through extraterritorial acts.
The other international law-issue in the
FIFA scandal concerns extradition of accused criminals.[34] Extradition is at least partly based
on a "mutual complementary dut[y] to combat international and transnational
forms of criminality on the grounds that world order rests in part on a level
of international and national order[.]"[35] As international crime has become more
prominent, nations have adopted treaties to standardize the process for transferring
criminal suspects.[36] A state requesting extradition normally
contacts the asylum country[37] through diplomatic channels to request that the alleged criminal be detained.[38] When the requesting state is the United
States, a judicial official is appointed to certify that the extradition
request satisfies the substantive doctrine of "specialty" and that "sufficient
evidence" exists to sustain the charge.[39] The legal standard for "sufficient evidence"
is whether a "reasonable belief of guilt of the crime charged" exists.[40] Upon U.S. certification, the asylum state
will appoint a judicial officer of its own to determine whether the offense
falls within the parameters of the extradition treaty.[41] This conclusion is premised on the
substantive requirement of dual criminality.[42]
"Dual criminality"
means that the crime charged in the requested state is also a crime in the
requesting state.[43] The crimes do not have to be codified
similarly; the requirement is merely that the conduct be criminalized in both
countries.[44] This principle of dual criminality has largely
replaced the previous doctrine of "extraditable offenses", wherein an asylum
country[45] could deny extradition if the alleged crime was not mentioned in the relevant
extradition treaty.[46]
The rule of
"specialty" also functions as a limiting principle to extradition. Specialty "stands for the proposition that
"[a] person who has been extradited shall not be detained, proceeded against,
or sentenced for any offense committed prior to surrender other than that for
which extradition has been granted," absent a couple of exceptions.[47] This doctrine's purpose is to protect surrendered persons from
indiscriminate prosecution and persecution by a receiving country.[48] The relevant inquiry in determining whether
the requirement of specialty is satisfied is whether the surrendering country
would find the "prosecution in question to be a breach of the extradition
order."[49] A judicial officer from the requesting
country makes this determination.[50]
In the case of
the FIFA scandal, world soccer executives were detained in Zurich, Switzerland
on May 27, 2015, at the request of the U.S. Department of Justice, which filed
an indictment with RICO charges against the fourteen defendants earlier that
day.[51] The United States then requested extradition
of those defendants pursuant to its bilateral extradition treaty with
Switzerland.[52] Some defendants consented to the extradition,[53] while other vowed to contest it.[54] Most of the extradition requests have been approved.[55]
The United States
was originally granted extradition over Eugenio Figueredo, a former
vice-president of CONMEBOL and dual U.S.-Uruguayan citizen.[56] However, after receiving an extradition
request from Uruguay, Switzerland changed its mind and instead sent Figueredo
to Uruguay for prosecution.[57] In contrast, Switzerland granted a U.S.
extradition request for Julio Rocha, former president of the Nicaraguan soccer
federation, over a competing request from Nicaragua.[58]
These contested
petitions raise an interesting issue within the context of international
criminal extraditions. Article 17 of the
U.S.-Switzerland bilateral extradition treaty provides that the "requested
state shall consider all factors, including but not limited to the relative
seriousness and place of commission of the offenses, the respective dates of
receipt of the requests, the nationality of the person claimed and the
possibility of subsequent extradition to another state," when deciding between
competing claims for extradition.[59] However, the treaty does not address whether
the losing country has redress to appeal the requested state's decision, and if
so, which court would have jurisdiction over the appeal. This gap within the international extradition
law does not seem likely to be tested in the FIFA scandal, but the question
remains open for future proceedings. One
such example might be a drug dealer accused of distributing illegal drugs in
multiple countries, each with a comparable interest in prosecution. Should this situation arise, an international
procedure must be created to sort out the competing requests. One good solution would be for the United
Nations to add a provision in the Rome Statute that would allow the
International Criminal Court to have jurisdiction over such an appeal. One major caveat to this proposal is that the
United States is not party to the Rome Statute.[60] Therefore, an all-encompassing proposal will provide
a means for the United States and other countries abstaining from the
International Criminal Court to seek redress. Nevertheless, this oversight represents a significant international law
issue that merits further study.

It has come to my attention that there is an issue running YouTube videos in the full screen mode through Blackboard. Full screen viewing has become impossible due to decisions made by made by the company. This issue is not browser specific so the issue is wide spread. There are several different ways for students to deal with the issue.
This is about the size of the video window that you will get and regardless of what you do it will not get any bigger. This could cause presentations to be difficult to view. The alternatives are as follows:
- Clicking on the share arrow (highlighted in yellow in the upper right) you will be able to access the video on the YouTube page which will allow the full screen view.
- If you have included the URL for the video when you have embedded the video the students can right click on it and have it open in a new tab or window. The same thing will happen if they right click on the "Watch Video" button indicated in yellow.

P and I were looking for a place to have dinner relatively late at night, and they recommended this restaurant. I've passed by it many times, but I've never been, so I decided it would be a good chance for me to finally check it out!
What we ate: Salad Spring Roll ($5.50)
Pretty standard, I appreciated that the vegetables were very fresh! It wasn't overstuffed with vermicelli either.
What we ate: Grilled Minced Pork Patty (special order)
My friends' family is a supplier for this restaurant so he special ordered this. The char gives this a really good flavour, but it's essentially a salty sausage patty.
What I ate: Grilled Chicken on Vermicelli ($9.50)
This was really good! The chicken was really moist and there was a really strong grill/char flavour. The portion was also really big, and it was struggle for me to even finish half!
What he ate: Rare Beef Slice and Beef Meatballs with Rice Noodle in soup ($7.50)
I didn't try any, but my friend had no complaints. He stands by this restaurant as his go to Vietnamese restaurant.
The food here was surprisingly good. If I was in the area I would come again. The interior is extremely dated, and this restaurant would definitely be classified as 'hole in the wall', but the food more than makes up for it!

The process is straight forward. Arrive at the dairy at one of the predefined milking times either 7 am or 4.30 pm. Sometimes they run a bit late or a bit early. Late isn't a problem as we always have a chat.
Once at the dairy it's into the vat room and turn off the vat pump. There is a brief wait to allow milk to accumulate in the pre-filter receiver. Once sufficient milk has accumulated the hose to the vat is disconnected and held over my collection container which has a large funnel inserted. One of the milkers turns on the pump while I hold everything steady. It only takes a couple of minutes to fill the 20 litre plastic drum. I reconnect the hose to the vat and they turn the receiver pump to automatic. They return to milking and I wash out the vat room.
|Our 20 litre milk collection container
Once home, the milk is emptied into our 25 litre cheese making vat and any drinking milk scooped into bottles for refrigeration. How much milk we bottle each time depends on the cheese making program. With Camembert, Yogurt, Fetta and some other soft cheeses we will bottle about half the milk. With harder cheeses we may only bottle 2 or 4 litres and get more milk sooner.
|25 litre chees making vat
After bottling the bottles go into the kitchen refrigerator and the cheese vat goes into the Cave refrigerator for cooling.
|Theses are milk bottles kept from when we use to buy Bio Dynamic milk from the supermarket
We collect afternoon milk as much as possible because it contains the highest level of butterfat. Morning milk is a bit thin on butterfat.
|Remaining milk being refrigerated.
After cooling the cheese vat milk overnight the cream rises to the top and forma a thick layer which wrinkles as you scoop it out. If making Camembert or Blue we leave the cream alone but for yogurt and Fetta and some other cheeses we scoop out the cream.
Our preference is cultured butter and the cream has a culture added and left at room temperature for 24 or more hours before processing. The Buttermilk is used to make scones and any leftover given to the cats and dogs.
Depending on time the next day the remaining milk in the cheese making vat is then processed in the kitchen into cheese with any whey kept for grain soaking.
Cleaning the 20 litre collection container is an important task. A rinse with cold water, Add a few litres of hot water and some detergent, a vigorous shake, empty and rinse again with cold water leaving a litre or so of cold water in the container. A tea spoon or two of Potassium Metabisulfite is added and another vigorous shake and that is it. The Metabisulphite will ensure no nasty growths in the container. When we go to use it again it just requires a quick rinse.

CSP's Composites Help Make Ford Vehicles Quieter 4 hours ago
BEL Launches Composite Facility 4 hours ago
The international travelling exhibition showing a variety of creative objects in composite materials, Composites on Tour, is continuing its European education and awareness programme.
The exhibition is currently in Ljubljana and will continue to Paris, Eindhoven and Wenen. The exhibition comprises of the work of the two winners of the International Composites Design Competition, along with another twenty selected entries and a small number of items suggested by the jury. The exhibition is accompanied by a catalogue to explain and illustrate the entries.
The remaining itinerary of the travelling exhibition is:
Fuzine Castle Lubljana, SI 3/09 – 30/09/07
Cité de la Science Paris, FR 1/11 – 13/11/07
Dutch Design Week, Klokgebouw Eindhoven, NL 20/10 – 27/10/07
Design Austria Wenen, AT 15/12 – 15/01/08
The International Composites Design Competition saluted designs in which composite materials have been used to the best effect and in an intelligent and innovative manner. The competition was open to professional designers from all over the world: individual designers, design agencies and corporate designers. The entries were divided into two categories. The first category comprises products that were brought to market between 1 January 2003 and 1 September 2006. The second category comprises experimental yet production-feasible prototypes. The winner of each category received EUR 7,500.
The winner in the products category was the Big Bench by the Danish duo Poul Christiansen and Boris Berlin (Komplot Design), a sofa that can be extended to a length of 6 metres. The composite materials used in the design give the sofa excellent support characteristics, despite its slim and elegant appearance. The sofa is available in semi-transparent composite or with a lacquered finish in a range of colours.
The winner in the prototypes category was Sébastien Dubois from Canada, who designed a prosthetic foot. The main consideration in the design of the artificial foot was to keep production costs as low as possible, so that it can above all be used in developing countries. The design also recently won an Index: Award for design.
The 69 entries submitted by 55 participants from 17 countries were judged by an international jury.
With Composites-on-Tour-2, the KU Leuven and Design Flanders opted resolutely for an international approach. The competition was open to designers from all over the world and the exhibition will be travelling from Brussels to Paris, Barcelona, Budapest, Ljubljana and Eindhoven. This cross-border strategy promotes international networking between designers and the business community. This type of cross-fertilisation often also leads to innovative product development.
Composites-on-Tour-2 also aims to bring the science closer to the general public. The design exhibition is accompanied with a small scientific exhibition that explains how research and development in the field of composites influences everyday life. It shows visitors in an informal and interactive manner how composite materials are made and why they have such unique properties.
The design competition and the travelling exhibitions are part of the Composites-on-Tour-2 science communication project, a joint project of Design Flanders and the KU Leuven. This initiative follows on from the first composites project, Composites-on-Tour (2002), which was awarded the European Commission Descartes Prize for Science Communication.

I was in Golborne Road and Portobello Road this morning for a spot of shopping. The first thing I did was pay a visit to the Lisboa Patisserie to buy some of their Portuguese custard tarts. They are absolutely divine and even the distinguished chef Yotam Ottolenghi goes to this patisserie to buy them. There were eight in the box when I bought them!
I then popped in to the Phoenix on Golborne. This is a gorgeous, quirky shop owned by Jess and I first met her when I did an Annie Sloan paint course with her in her shop. I adore her shop and always end up buying something. She has beautiful flowers in many of the vases/containers she sells and I always end up buying one of the containers with flowers in them! I bought his beautiful old jug which I plan to use for cottage garden flowers.
I then went to my favourite store, The Cloth Shop, where I always find something to buy. I've bought the fabric from them for my sitting room revamp (roman blinds, curtain and armchair in linen) and I wanted to order some velvet cushions to put on my gorgeous newly upholstered sofa (see previous post on sitting room revamp). I ordered velvet cushions in orange velvet and gold velvet and then popped into the second hand shop opposite and bought this lovely crystal red vase for £8! I plan to cram it with red roses and place it in the centre of my dining table on Christmas day.
Anyone who lives in London or visiting London should visit Portobello Road but must ensure that they go as far as Golborne Road because Golborne is a fantastic road full of interesting stores, in particular Portuguese and Moroccan food stores, second hand and antiques store and other great independent stores.

From Wisconsin to Fairport NY, there is nothing like being together with your family. We had three generations at this backyard gathering, and Erin and I were glad to capture it for them. Everyone was so friendly and easy going, even with the imminent threat of rain. We were lucky and it held off just long enough for our session. I loved being able to incorporate grandma and grandpa's beautiful garden into the photographs as well. Even Jorja, the family dog was great at sitting for the photos!
We really enjoy meeting people and photographing them in their environment. Such a rewarding experience, and now I know more of my neighbors! Have a great summer guys!

"It goes with a view of life which is narrow and limited, since it represents an attempt on man's part to gain an immediate "end" without consideration of larger issues ."
—F.M Alexander
Last year I had a couple of wonderful opportunities to teach in a corporate environment. As an ITM Alexander Technique teacher I am deeply aware of how "counter culture" our work is and was looking forward to share our different point of view with a new group of students.
About halfway through one of my introductions, the HR liaison interrupted me and said: "This is not what we want. All these people have "bad backs" and they want instruction on how to sit properly to solve their problems."
I asked how many people in the room had been told how to "sit properly". Everyone put up their hand and there were murmurs in the room…."proper screen height…..pull in your core….don't slump….sit on a ball…draw in your chin". I asked how many of them have tried to implement that information. Everyone put up their hand. I asked how many people had improvement as a result of doing so. Not one hand went up.
People are not idiots. This was a room full of intelligent, well meaning people who wanted to help themselves. If there were a "proper" way to sit, stand, live, we would all be doing it.
But the uncomfortable truth is that the whole concept of "a right way to sit" does not exist, does not work, and even worse, is damaging to anyone who tries to put it into action.
Obviously, we have a problem in our culture. Millions of pounds are wasted every year on back pain, stress induced illness, RSI and tension headaches. Even greater is the human cost of people forced to live their day to day lives with little satisfaction and without knowing the deep joy and wellness available to them as human beings in possession of a mind and body.
Millions of pounds are made by people offering solutions to these problems. Solutions that don't work. Which is why we still have people traipsing around offices giving new and ever more nuanced instructions on how to sit properly. These people instruct you on how to "hold" your head, where to put your body parts to have "good posture", what to pull in and what to push out, where to set your computer screen and mouse, what surface to sit on and what stretches and exercises you must do.
Why don't these solutions work? Because they are being created by the same thinking that caused the problem in the first place.
You see, the reason we have this epidemic of problems is not because we don't know "how to sit properly". It is not because we lack "core strength". It is not because we are "lazy" and slump all the time. It is not because we "forget" to follow instructions. It is not because we have "bad" chairs. It is not because we need to learn some new stretch or exercise to relieve our problem.
The reason we have these problems is because we are operating on fundamental misconceptions about ourselves and we don't have any understanding of the processes that govern human movement and function and how to direct them to our benefit.
And unfortunately, solving these problems is not a "quick fix", it can't be done with "5 easy tips" and it won't be solved by the well meaning guy coming to your office with clear instructions on how to sit at your desk. I can't write a short blog that will solve your problems.
It is a fundamental problem that requires fundamental solutions. In the ITM Alexander Technique, everything we do in a lesson is designed to help you solve those fundamental problems.
And, after twenty years of study and witnessing many miracles, I can say: It works. Unlike anything else. But only if you are willing to put in the time, do the work required and question what you believe and how you behave in a fundamental way.
Not only does it work, but by learning how to make these fundamental changes in how you see yourself and operate in the world you will gift yourself with a freedom you can't even imagine.
So I am not sorry that I can't in good conscious acquiesce to the HR liaison's requests to give those participants tips on how to sit properly at their computer. And while I wish all those people in that office did not have back pain, I know that if it was what brought every single one of them into contact with this extraordinary work on that day, it may be a huge blessing in their lives.
So after being interrupted I went right back to doing my job: sharing the information and tools necessary, modelling and encouraging the kind of thinking skills that those people can use to make these fundamental changes in themselves. I know, without a doubt that is how I can be of the highest service to everyone in that room.
The good news? One of the participants took on the challenge. Instead of being preoccupied with his expectations of what the workshop would be about, he listened to my lecture with an open mind. He really heard my message that our bodies are not meant to be "held" in any particular way. He considered the concept that we live in a dynamic and flexible system that is in constant movement. He considered that the only way a muscle will contract is if you send a message from the brain to the muscle in question and that you can elevate this process to a conscious level. In a very short lesson he understood that he could simply "stop" creating some of the tension in his own body that was causing his discomfort. So he did, and it was awesome! And so can you.

Asbestos Exposure
Asbestos is categorized as a cancer producing mineral. Its exposure is harmful to human health and mostly happens in the workplace. Fatal diseases associated with asbestos exposure are;
What is Asbestos?
Asbestos is a naturally occurring toxic mineral that have the ability to resist heat and electricity. Exposure to asbestos is linked with deadly diseases like mesothelioma, lung cancer and asbestosis.
Asbestos fibres are very tiny, extremely tough, chemical corrosion and resistance to heat. These properties made it good fire proofing material and was widely used in commercial and domestic buildings. Asbestos exposure can happen anywhere at home, school, old buildings, government offices and while working on the job. Occupational exposure is the main cause of asbestos exposure.
Learn more about your legal Rights
How Asbestos Exposure Happens?
When these asbestos containing microscopic fibres are inhaled, they get trapped deep in the lungs. The development of filaments stays in your lung tissue for quite a while and may cause scarring and irritation. This can prompt deadly diseases.
Toxic exposures occur in various ways. Building renovation and remodelling can be very harmful because these buildings contain asbestos. When asbestos containing materials are cut or disturbed, the fibres are released in the air.
Types of Asbestos Related Diseases
Over the time, these microscopic fibres cause inflammation and other health issues. Unfortunately, the risks of asbestos do not vanish once the exposure stops. They develop over the time. Due to the long latency time period, the symptoms such as pain, fever, cough and shortness of breath may not develop till 10 to 50 years even after the first exposure. Asbestos related diseases are hard to detect and often the illness is at a last stage of development. The three main disease are:
Asbestos-Mesothelioma Statistics
By the year 2030, it is estimated that the total number of deaths associated with asbestos in the U.S. exceed by 200,000.
Occupations who were at the risk of asbestos exposure
The risk of asbestos exposure is high in occupations where asbestos was used in thousands of products and the workers working in these industries are potentially at the danger of toxic exposure. There were industries where asbestos was widely used such as:
Asbestos Exposure in the Military
U.S. Armed forces and Navy Ships used asbestos in early 1970s and were at the significant risk of exposure. Veterans who come across asbestos while serving following vessels developed mesothelioma.
• Auxiliary Vessels
• Aircraft Machineries
• Submarines
• Battleships
Use of Asbestos in Products
Lot of products containing asbestos fibers were manufactured and sold by companies. Products like floor tiles, ceiling, insulation, cement, paint and many more contains asbestos. These products are commonly used in old public buildings, homes, hospitals and were most at risk.
Asbestos Exposure in these Occupations
Electricians, fire-fighters, plumbers, mechanics and more other occupations are always at risk. Workers were most likely to get exposed on their job sites. But now the asbestos regulations are strict and allow all employers to safeguard their workers from asbestos and other work related health hazards.
Asbestos Exposure in the Environment
Asbestos fibers are released into the air through natural deposits of asbestos, natural calamities and mining. Though, a recent study shows that occupational asbestos exposure has been reduced but still in some specific regions there has been a rise in environmental exposure. The percentage of women patients with asbestos related diseases has been increasing. The naturally occurring deposits of asbestos are highest in the northern California.
Second Hand Asbestos Exposure
Second hand exposure or indirect exposure can be as dangerous as first hand exposure. This exposure happens when any family member brings asbestos fiber containing work clothes to home, making other family members at significant risk of exposure.
Women and children in the homes are more prone to secondary exposure. Men were directly exposed to asbestos in their job sites and the women who laundered their husband's asbestos containing clothes were at the danger of second hand asbestos exposure.

Troublemaker Week 1: Jesus The Loner
Jesus went off by himself for 40 days in the wilderness right after being baptized. Why didn't he just jump headfirst into his ministry? What do these 40 days tell us about Jesus and how can we learn from him?
Matthew 4:1-11
1 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2 After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. 3 The tempter came to him and said, "If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread."
4 Jesus answered, "It is written: 'Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.'"
5 Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. 6 "If you are the Son of God," he said, "throw yourself down. For it is written:
" 'He will command his angels concerning you,
and they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.'"
7 Jesus answered him, "It is also written: 'Do not put the Lord your God to the test.'"
8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. 9 "All this I will give you," he said, "if you will bow down and worship me."
10 Jesus said to him, "Away from me, Satan! For it is written: 'Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.'"
11 Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended him.
