The Beer by the Pier branding won an Applied Arts Design Community Award.
Working with White Crow Communications and writer Cheri Hanson, we recently helped the Family Services of the North Shore brand their successful new fundraiser, Beer by the Pier. This annual event features beer tasting by local breweries, food prepared by local chefs, live bands and a large silent auction. This fun evening always sells-out and helps to raise critical funds that support families in need with counselling, programs and support services.
The pink heart was an existing element of the Family Services of the North Shore logo, so it was an important extension of their brand and other fundraising initiatives. The anchor symbolizes the organization as an anchor of the community, while representing the location by the harbour.
The DISH event helped to raise important funds for the programs and services offered by Family Services of the North Shore
A few years ago, Family Services of the North Shore hosted an important fundraising event with donors from the community. Working with White Crow Communications and writer Shannon Melnyk, we developed a fun identity that played on the theme of the event – the act of "dishing" gossip while attending a superb culinary and musical evening.
Only a limited run of the invitations were printed and sent out. Each invitation was die-cut with a special fold and mailed with a custom envelope. The invitations were printed by local North Shore printers Contact Printing.

Step Back In
Tracey Terrell was brought up surrounded by beautiful things.
Growing up a close childhood friend of her mother's was in the antique business. By the time she was 12 years old, she had a natural ability to refinish furniture and bringing old things to life. A few years later her father and her started getting request from friends to make them furniture from old doors, windows, etc. which happened to fit perfectly in our new adventure.
For the past 8 years Tracey worked in the real estate industry, staging homes and inspiring buyers by showing them a finished home that feels both elegant and welcoming. But it just wasn't satisfying her entrepreneur itch, so she decided to rent 2 booths at her favorite antique mall. Within 6 months of opening her booths, the owners approached her, saying that they wanted to retire. It seemed like the perfect fit.
"I truly believe that God gives all of his children special gifts. I'm blessed to have discovered mine and fortunate to have a job doing what I love and what makes me happy"
- Tracey Terrell, Owner

On June 19th, Westfield's self-appointed financial seer, David Flaherty, said the mayor's estimate of 8% returns for Westfield's pension fund were too optimistic, despite the fact that the annualized return for the last 28 years is 8.59%. Apparently, Councilor Flaherty's ability to see into the future is more insightful than a 28 year track record.
And now the latest numbers are in for 2012. The fund was up a whopping 15.04%, almost double what Flaherty said was "unrealistic."
Anybody who blindly believes everything Flaherty puts in his little videos should start thinking twice.

Northern Long-eared Bat
Locations and Conditions of Key Habitat
Preferred Habitat
Prefers wooded habitat. Generally roosts in trees under loose bark or within holes. Hibernates within caves and mine shafts.
Key Areas and Conditions for Northern Long-eared Bat in North Dakota
This species has only been identified in a few locations in North Dakota. It has been documented in forested habitat in the Turtle Mountains, and the riparian corridors of the Little Missouri and Missouri rivers.
Problems Which May Affect this Species
This and other bat species in the state rely on caves and crevices for hibernacula and maternal grounds. These sites are susceptible to human and other types of disturbance. Frequent disturbance may cause females to drop young in the rearing process or abandon the area.
Other Natural or Manmade Factors
Northern Long-eared Bat and other bats in North Dakota are insectivores. Pesticides used in the vicinity of feeding grounds would affect bat populations by killing prey. Also, bats are known to store pesticides within fat reserves. Loss of water sources for drinking is also a potential threat. When natural water sources are dry, bats may resort to drinking from stock tanks. These can be potential bat traps. Wind turbines have been identified as a source of mortality to bats and several turbine "farms" are under construction in parts of North Dakota. Indiscriminate killing due to a negative public perception has been identified as a possible threat to this species.
Research and Survey Efforts
Current Research or Surveys
- Identification of hibernacula in western North Dakota as well as their susceptibility to White-nose Syndrome is being conducted by North Dakota State University.
- North Dakota State University is currently developing a North Dakota Bat Management Plan.
Previous Research or Surveys
- A survey of bat species in the state was conducted by North Dakota State University.
- A number of agencies have surveyed for small mammals in the southwestern part of the state including, REAP, Theodore Roosevelt National Park, the U.S. Forest Service, and U.S. Bureau of Land Management.
Additional Research or Surveys Needed
- Research to assess primary threats to this species.
- Life History requirements for this species specific to North Dakota should be investigated.
Management Recommendations
- Protection and restoration of riparian habitat.
- Manage riparian habitats to maintain snags, connecting corridors, and edges.
- Maintain and improve seeps, ponds, and other wet areas as water sources.
- Education on the benefits and misconceptions about bats.
- Determine and protect nursery and hibernation sites.
- Provide roosting sites in areas where natural sites have been destroyed or disturbed.
- Reduce use of pesticides near waterways where bats forage.
Monitoring Plans
A monitoring protocol will be addressed in the North Dakota Bat Management Plan currently under development.
2005-2015 Progress
The Northern Long-eared Bat was added to the Species of Conservation Priority list during the revision of the Wildlife Action Plan in 2015. Listed as Threatened by the USFWS in April of 2015. Rare to North Dakota, Whitenose Syndrome threatens this species in much of its eastern range.
Note: A listing of works consulted when compiling the information on this page may be found in the 2015 State Wildlife Action Plan.

Some years ago, this image popped up in my Facebook feed. It made me smile, so I saved a copy to the desktop of my work PC, for purposes of private amusement at a later date. Eventually, as with anything you see all the time, I stopped noticing it was there and pretty much forgot about it.
Some time later, a member of the university's IT department came to do some work on my computer – I forget what – and opened the GIF saved on my desktop. She had obviously never seen what had, by that time, become a fairly well-known meme, and laughed and laughed, until tears ran down her face and she needed to hold on my desk to keep from falling over. Through gasps for breath, she managed to choke out, "it… it looks like an… an… octopuuuuss…" before collapsing once again into helpless laughter.
Of course, it doesn't really look that much like an octopus – this is an octopus:
So why do we look at a coat hook and see an inebriated cephalopod? Why is the perenially popular Faces in Things Twitter account full of people who think inanimate objects are looking at them? Why do the plug sockets in the office kitchen always look so astonished to see me, even though the first thing I do on nearly every working day is go into the kitchen to make a cup of coffee?
The answer seems to be that the human brain is hardwired to see faces: the phenomenon is called 'pareidolia' and is a result of the brain's habit of presenting a prediction of what it thinks the eyes are going to see. The habit probably evolved to help early humans spot people and potential threats – it is worth scaring yourself nine times imagining that a tree is looking at you if, on the tenth occasion, you correctly identify the person staring at you with malice aforethought in time for you to run away.
Nowadays, the ability seems to have evolved further, with its main purpose apparently being the creation of sharable web content – and recognising when our morning coffee is pleased to see us.

Concordia 5, McGill 3: Stingers Women's Hockey Beats Rivals in Crunchtime
Stingers Win Season Series With McGill 3-1
With just three games left in the regular season, it was critical for the Stingers women's hockey team to enter the postseason with a full head of steam.
After consecutive wins over McGill and Carleton, the Stingers once again faced their cross-town rival, the Martlets, Saturday afternoon. Entering the final frame, the two teams were tied at three goals apiece and seemed destined for overtime. On par with their other meetings, the game was tight.
"With McGill, it's a big rivalry," said Concordia forward Claudia Dubois, who picked up a goal and two assists in the game. "No matter what, it's a close game with them."
The two teams exchanged goals for most of the contest.
Following a four-goal performance against the Carleton Ravens on Feb 4, Stingers forward Audrey Belzile scored one of those goals and extended her point streak to five games.
Forward Marie-Pascale Bernier scored another one of those goals and added an assist, registering her first points in three games in the process.
Through the ebbs and flows of the game, Concordia looked very comfortable being in such a tight battle.
With a bit over five minutes to play, Lalancette received a pass from Belzile and scored to give the Stingers a late lead. Forward Devon Thompson added an empty-netter, and Concordia was able to hang on.
More importantly for Concordia head coach Julie Chu, it gave them a win in a crunchtime situation.
"This was huge, this was a playoff atmosphere," she said. "Every game matters right now for us hopefully getting a chance to work towards ending first in the conference at the end of the season."
The Stingers and Carabins are in the thick of a tight race for first place in the Réseau du sport étudiant du Québec—so close that the two teams are separated by a single point in the standings.
The Carabins are set to face McGill Sunday afternoon, and if they were to lose, Concordia would be in prime position to make the jump into first place should they beat UdeM when they face off on Feb. 16.
"We know it's going to be a big game," said Dubois. "Against UdeM, it's always a tight game. But we're going to prepare like every other game and try to have a great week of practice."
Their meeting with the Carabins is Friday, 7:00 p.m. at the CEPSUM. They'll round out their season with a home game against the University of Ottawa Gee-Gees two days later.

Russell Cambridge
Director / Auctioneer
Russell has loved working in Real Estate since starting his career in 1987. He has been an integral and extremely energetic part of the Biggin & Scott Richmond team since 1993, and his success culminated in him becoming a Director in 1998. 'I can't wait to do my Auctions each Saturday. It's always such a buzz' Russell says 'After selling well over 3000 properties at auction, there is still nothing more satisfying than the beam on the face of a happy Vendor after a great result'. Our work on 'The Block' in 2011 produced a win and also ended up being the only sale on the night! In 2013 Russell was involved with 'The Block Sky High', in 2014 with 'The Block Glasshouse', and more recently, in 2015 with The Block Triple Threat. For Russell, the highlight of all Block experiences was being able to give some well-deserved exposure to HeartKids Vic/Tas, a charity of which he and his team are proud supporters. Russell was instrumental in developing the sponsorship relationships between Biggin & Scott Richmond and Dame Nellie Melba Kinda, Richmond Primary School, Collingwood City FC, Trinity Catholic School North Richmond. Russell thrives when it comes to the charities that Biggin & Scott Richmond are involved with and he is a passionate supporter of HeartKids Vic/Tas., and The Marsh Foundation. We get so much satisfaction in knowing that we have helped generate much needed awareness and funds for these loved and valuable charities. Whenever Russell has spare time (which is rare) you'll find him spending quality time with wife Nikki, daughters Alannah, Ruby, Kiara and son, Will. He is also Team Manager for Collingwood City Football Club under 15s Girls.

Bell County Commissioner Tim Brown announced that he would seek a seventh and final term on the Commissioners Court in the March 2018 Republican primary. Brown made the announcement from the Commissioner's Court on Sept. 18.
"Protecting our quality of life while building for the future has always been and continues to be my goal," Brown said.
He pointed to several accomplishments achieved by Bell County government during the 23 years in which he has served, including the renovations of the historic Bell County courthouse, the construction of the Justice Complex and county jail on Loop 121 and "state-of-the-art technology" throughout the county government.
"We have done all of this while maintaining the lowest property tax in central Texas," he said.
He thanked other officials and Bell County staff for their work to improve the infrastructure of the county, increase efficiencies in every Bell County department and maintaining a AA+ bond rating. "This is the same bond rating that the federal government," he said, adding that "very few counties can boast this high of a rating."
"We have an incredibly talented and dedicated family of county officials and employees and it has been my honor to work with these people," he said. "We have forged strong relationships with leaders and officials at every level of government and with community leaders, volunteers and just plain good people who give so much here at home."
First elected in 1994, Brown said he sees the county continuing to address the same issues as those he campaigned for in his first election.
"They're just on a much larger scale," he said, pointing to water, transportation, public safety, growth management and the mandate to hold down the cost of government.
Brown was born and raised in Bell County, graduating from Belton High School before attending Texas A&M. As an Aggie, he received his undergraduate degree in Environmental Design and a Master's Degree in Land Development. Prior to his stint as a public servant, Brown worked as an independent designer.
Brown was first elected county commissioner in 1994, the same year that then-Governor George W. Bush won his first term as head of state.
Brown has led the charge on the establishment of the Clearwater Underground Water Conservation District. The commissioner is also one of the founders and two-term president of North America's Super Corridor Coalition, a group created to address infrastructure needs in response to the passage of NAFTA. Brown also helped coordinate local governments to provide funding to get the U.S. 190 upgrade started with the Texas Department of Transportation.
A lifelong Republican, Brown told that audience that he has maintained a strong fiscal responsibility by working with the commissioners' court to maintain a steady tax rate, while providing more services.
"Bell County is continuing to be one of the fastest growing counties in the state," he said. "With Interstate 14 now a reality, we must prepare to become a new crossroads for Texas' economy and military preparedness."
Brown said he will be hosting a campaign launch event in October.
He will present more information about how Bell County can address these important issues through his campaign website, www.BrownForBellCounty.com

Coetzee, J. M.. SUMMERTIME: FICTION. New York City, NY: Viking/Penguin Books, 2009. Hardcover. First Edition/First Printing. 266 pages. As New/As New.
The author's autobiographical novel. The first appearance of the title in the United States. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents J. M. Coetzee's "Summertime", the fictional sequel-counterpoint to his memoirs, "Boyhood" (1998) and "Youth" (2003). "A young English biographer is researching a book about the late South African writer John Coetzee, focusing on Coetzee in his thirties, at a time when he was living in a rundown cottage in the Cape Town suburbs with his widowed father, a time, the biographer is convinced, when Coetzee was finding himself as a writer. Never having met the man himself, the biographer interviews five people who knew Coetzee well, including a married woman with whom he had an affair, his cousin Margot, and a Brazilian dancer whose daughter took English lessons with him. These accounts add up to an image of an awkward, reserved, and bookish young man who finds it hard to make meaningful connections with the people around him. An inventive and inspired work of fiction that allows J. M. Coetzee to imagine his own life with a critical and unsparing eye, revealing painful moral struggles and attempts to come to grips with what it means to care for another human being. Incisive, elegant, and often surprisingly funny, a compelling work by one of today's most esteemed writers" (Publisher's blurb). A "must-have" title for J. M. Coetzee collectors. This title is now collectible. This is one of few copies of the First American Edition/First Printing still available online and has no flaws, a pristine beauty. Beware: Most copies available online are remainder-marked or have serious flaws. A scarce copy thus. Winner of the Lannan Award in 1998, the Jerusalem Prize in 1999, the Booker Prize in 1983 for "The Life & Times of Michael K" and in 1999 for "Disgrace", the first writer to win the most prestigious British literary award twice. Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2003. One of the greatest living writers. A flawless copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER J. M. COETZEE TITLES IN OUR CATALOG). ISBN 0670021385. $40.00

My Pokemon are underleveled by 4 or 5 lvls, and the Battle Mansion's Pokemon are lvl. 25's. I also defeated the trainer's on the other route, too, so I don't see an option.
Edit: Pokemon are like lvl 55 or lvl 56
Try Victory Road itself
Defeating Pokemon 4-5 levels higher than you can get you quite a bit of exp. To start off you should turn on the Exp. Share. (If you want to) Next start by capturing Pokemon you don't have, this will help you fill up your Dex and get more exp. If you have already done that, or don't want to capture those Pokemon, start battling. Use any Pokemon you want to battle with. Make sure that you have plenty of status curing items, potions, and similar stuff. Once you have gotten your Pokemon to a decent level switch to the next Pokemon and start training it. When you have gotten all your Pokemon to levels you think are good, start going through Victory Road. If you train for a while then go through Victory Road you will be able to get more exp. than just going straight through Victory Road without training. If you think Victory Road is too strong, go a couple of routes back and train there.
Hope I helped!

VIERA VOICE Chris Bonanno
Prior to what they hope will be another in a streak of successful seasons on the field, Viera High School's football community took a little bit of time off of it to give back to those in need.
VHS players and coaches, in conjunction with the Viera Hawks Quarterback Club, gathered July 22 at Buffalo Wild Wings in Viera to hold a school supply drive.
"With a new coach (Derek Smith) comes some new ideas and one of those ideas was to start giving back to the community a little more," Hawks Quarterback Club president Garrett Lamp said. "The Viera Hawks program has been very blessed by the Viera community and the outlying areas. We wanted to make sure that we give back to them to kind of show our appreciation for what they've done for us."
Donated items filled three large containers.
"We're trying to collect as many school supplies as we can to give to the Brevard Schools Foundation," Smith said. "From that point forward, Brevard Schools Foundation gives it to the free- and reduced-lunch kids of Brevard County in the elementary schools and the middle schools that are in need of school supplies."
Those who donated received a coupon from Buffalo Wild Wings.
Seniors from the team worked the event.
"It's going to be good to give back to our community," said Jordy Emmons, who plays wide receiver and tight end for the Hawks. "It's something we take pride in at Viera. They support us and we give back to the community for such a great cause."
"We've had a lot of positive responses," added kicker/punter Robbie Murtha. "Everyone's motivating us to keep pursuing great things like this and to keep giving back to our community."

Gain Ground is an arcade game that was ported to the Sega Master System, Mega Drive/Genesis and PC Engine (TurboGrafx-16). In 2004, it was re-released in Radica Games' TVPlay Legends Vol. II TV Games compilation. It was remade in the PlayStation 2 title Sega Ages 2500 Series Vol. 9: Gain Ground, which was released only in Japan. The Mega Drive/Genesis version was made available on the European and Australian Virtual Console on February 2, 2007, and was made available in North America on February 5, 2007. The game has also appeared on Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The game has also appeared on the Sega Genesis Collection on the PlayStation 2 and the PSP. On June 1, 2010 the game became available on Steam as part of the 'Sega Mega Drive Classics Pack'.
Gameplay[edit | edit source]
In Gain Ground, players control one of a set of characters at a time. There are twenty characters, each with different weapons. To beat a level, players must reach the exit point with at least one character or destroy all enemies on the level before time runs out.
Littered across the level are captive characters, which can be rescued by walking over, then escorting the controlled character to the exit point. If a player controlled character is killed, that character turns into a captive, except that they will disappear if the next active player controlled character dies, exits the level without them, or the player has no characters left in their party.
The game is over when all controlled characters in the party are killed without any reaching the exit. However, there are three continues which allow a player to restart the level with their original three characters.
There are 40 levels in the arcade version of the game. The Master System and the Genesis/Mega Drive have 50 levels in the game. The last level can be beaten without the previously stated "suicide tactics".
Characters[edit | edit source]
There are twenty playable characters in Gain Ground, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Each character has a minor, weak weapon which can be fired in any direction, and a special weapon which has different capabilities from the normal attack and which vary between characters.
The characters in Gain Ground also vary in which hand they hold their weapons. This was originally done purely for cosmetic purposes[citation needed], but it was very soon discovered that this feature made it easier for some characters to shoot around certain walls and obstacles than others. When selecting a character for a situation, one must consider the character's speed, weapon type and range, and with which hands they hold their weapons.

- "Cyber" seems to be directly inspired by the title character of the Robocop film series, only colored red instead of silver.
- Mars' appearance and use of a bow and arrow have drawn comparisons the title character of the Rambo film series.
- "Robby the Robot" is a subtle reference to the character from the vintage TV show, Lost in Space.
- The "General" has been noted by players to bear more than a passing resemblance to Street Fighter series villain, M. Bison, although the character didn't appear until 1992 after this game's release. Players have nicknamed the character "Bison" due to the name, General, being rather generic.
History[edit | edit source]
Gain Ground started off as an arcade game. Released in Japan and America in 1988, Gain Ground ran on the Sega System 24 architecture. It supported up to three players at once. Each player had an 8-direction controller and two buttons.
Gain Ground was ported to the Sega Master System in 1990 and the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis in 1991. Renovation Products released the Genesis version in the United States. Both coversions were handled by SIMS. In 1992, a PC Engine Super CD-ROM² version (Gain Ground SX) was released by NEC Avenue. In 2004, the game was remade for a modern audience on the PlayStation 2 as part of Sega's Sega Ages 2500 series. It's now been ported onto the Wii's Virtual Console for download. In 2006, the game was re-released as part of the Sega Genesis Collection.
Storyline[edit | edit source]
From a Gain Ground flyer:
A long period of peace has deprived the earthlings of their instinct to wage war. The Federated Government, greatly concerned regarding this ever increasing dangerous situation, developed a GAIN GROUND simulation system in the year 2348 in an effort to instigate their ever waning fighting spirit. However, suddenly without warning, the Supercomputer went berserk and took many of the citizens as hostages. In order to rescue the POWs, three of the bravest warriors were urgently dispatched to go forth into the deadly GAIN GROUND.

Below are frequently asked questions about the Local Voices project.
CSIRO is Australia's leading science and research agency. Our community survey approach helps companies understand what the communities they work alongside think about them and why, providing opportunities for building greater trust in those relationships.
Port Waratah has partnered with CSIRO, Australia's national science agency, to conduct a two-year analysis of community attitudes to the company's operations. This is giving the communities neighbouring the operations an opportunity to express their views and experiences directly into the company, helping to inform the company's decision making.
CSIRO has developed a community survey approach which helps companies understand what the communities they work alongside think about them and why. CSIRO provides sophisticated data analysis that translates community survey data into a language that companies can engage with and respond to. Community attitude data are collected over time, analysed, and provided back to the company and community in a format that is accessible and useful. The process provides an avenue for the company to actively address issues that are important to the community.
Port Waratah seeks to understand the expectations of those in surrounding communities, to meet the various interests and concerns of community members. Through Local Voices, Port Waratah wants to better understand the communities it works with, to improve relationships and build trust, based on a mutual understanding of the impacts and benefits of its operations.
Community members from portside suburbs surrounding Port Waratah's operations, and the wider Newcastle and Hunter region are invited and encouraged to participate. We are aiming to reach as many community members as possible within these areas. The aim is to ensure that a diverse sample of community members participate. Use the social media icons at the top of the page to help spread the word!
Local Voices ambassadors are members of the community who have agreed to support and help promote the project. They play an important role linking the communities and the CSIRO, encouraging their networks to participate in the Local Voices project. They also advise CSIRO on the value of the process for the communities. CSIRO provides ambassadors with materials and support to perform this role.
An anchor survey was undertaken between August and September 2018. Pulse surveys then take place every six months for at least the following two years.
The surveys aim to find out about community attitudes towards issues such as but not limited to the effectiveness of community investment programs, dust, noise, employment, skills training and development initiatives. The survey also focuses on the nature of the relationship between community members and the company.
Following a 10 minute registration, the pulse surveys will take less than 10 minutes to complete.
Yes, the surveys can be completed on any device able to access the online survey platform. The survey is rendered according to the screen size of mobile device. Most modern mobile browsers will be compatible with our mobile surveys, which includes: iPhones, iPads, Androids phones and tablets, Windows Phone, BlackBerry and more.
CSIRO has a strict ethics framework that protects the rights of research participants. All data are maintained securely, and no personal information or information that would enable identification of individuals is made available to Port Waratah. Participant confidentiality and anonymity are assured.
Within CSIRO, participant personal information and their survey response data are kept physically separate and only accessible by a small number of senior project members. All other parties, including Port Waratah, receive an aggregated summary of responses by community, not the raw data.
CSIRO will analyse the survey data collected and provide the information back to the communities and to Port Waratah in a format that is accessible and useful.
The aggregated data may be used for the following:
The data may be licensed to a separate entity to enable continued data collection past the initial two-year agreement between CSIRO and Port Waratah. This will enable a long-term view of community attitudes and how they change over time. Your personal details will not be included with the data. You will be contacted by CSIRO in these circumstances with an opportunity to either opt out or continue participation in the study with the new entity.
The survey data will inform Port Waratah community engagement approach and development within the region.
When participants completed the anchor survey, they received 20 tokens which they allocated to an eligible not-for-profit community group. For each pulse survey completed, participants will earn four tokens which they can similarly allocate. When a community group accrues 1000 tokens, CSIRO will deliver a payment of $500 for their use. Alternatively, the community group can cash in tokens pro rata if they haven't yet reached 1000 tokens. For example, 500 tokens would be equal to $250.
Community groups that are eligible include school P&Cs, charities, and not-for-profit clubs and organisations operating within the region. Groups must be nominated for the rewards program by a community member who has been authorised by the group, before they can receive tokens. Full eligibility criteria, terms and conditions are published and groups can be nominated on this website.
Participation is completely voluntary and participants can stop at any time without any consequence. While retracting data is not possible once results are published, you are free to withdraw your participation at any time, without prejudice, penalty or having to provide a reason for your withdrawal.
This is ok, you can join Local Voices at any time. CSIRO will send a link to the pulse survey that is underway at that time and will continue to send invitations every 6 months until you tell them otherwise.

Ayatollah Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, met Saturday morning with Nicolas Maduro, the President of Venezuela. ."
Ayatollah Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, met Saturday morning with Nicolas Maduro, the President of Venezuela. Praising Venezuela's positions in confronting the Zionist regime, His Eminence stated that the insistence of this country on its courageous positions and its strategic influence in Latin America is the reason why the camp of arrogance shows enmity towards it, further reiterating: "The definite decision of the Islamic Republic is to continue and increase cooperation with Venezuela in all areas."
The Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution described the suspicious reduction in the price of oil in a short period of time as a political and non-economic move, adding: "Our mutual enemies are using oil as a political tool and they are definitely involved in this considerable reduction in the price of oil."
Expressing his agreement with the negotiations between the presidents of Iran and Venezuela about responding to this reduction, Ayatollah Khamenei said: "Of course, cooperation between the two countries is not confined to oil issues and we should increase economic deals and investments between Iran and Venezuela. Currently, cooperation between the two countries is below the level that we expect."
His Eminence praised the resistance, positions and actions of Venezuela on a regional and international level and stressed: "Latin American countries are, in fact, the strategic depth of Venezuela and Venezuela's ideals have led to the awakening of many nations in that region. This is the reason why America shows enmity to the government and people of Venezuela."
He referred to the good positions that Venezuela adopted during the 51-day war in Gaza, adding: "The Zionist regime is hated throughout the world - particularly among regional nations - and your courageous positions against this regime have created many friends for you among different nations."
Maduro also touched on the reduction in the price of oil and said: "We are trying to form a consensus about controlling the price of oil among members of OPEC and also the other countries which export oil - such as Russia - so that we can raise the price of oil at a reasonable rate by benefiting from new mechanisms."
Elsewhere in his statements, the President of Venezuela referred to the issue of Palestine, saying: "Palestine is one of the main ideals of humanity and the people and government of Venezuela owe a great deal to the Palestinian ideal. We are confident that one day, Palestine will be free."
He added: "Palestine is a victim of the arrogant and destructive policies of America. The government of America tries to hide its inhumane and imperialist face behind a thousand masks."


text: Berry won�t play under franchise tag By TEREZ A. PAYLOR The Kansas City Star (TNS) Chiefs safety Eric Berry has been very clear about his uncertain contract status. The pending free agent told The Star at the Super Bowl that he will sit out the season if he is franchise-tagged and not given a long-term contract by the July 15 deadline, and on Sunday, he reiterated that point when asked at the 101 Awards if he�s changed his mind. �No I haven�t,� said Berry, who played the 2016 season under the $10.8 million franchise tender. �I still stand firm on that.� Berry, 28, responded to the franchise tag in �16 with another All-Pro season. Playing under the tag again would net him a guaranteed $12.96 million. Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt said the conversation between the club and Berry�s representation is ongoing. �The conversation is ongoing, and I think the good news is both the organization and the player want to get it done,� Hunt said. �It�s just a matter of finding the middle ground that works for both parties at this point.� Berry confirmed that there�s been contact between his agent and the team, though he knows better than to assume anything. �I�m going to keep being patient because you never know,� Berry said. �Last year I thought one thing and it didn�t happen. So I�m not getting my hopes up; I�m looking at it logically.� The Chiefs have until 3 p.m. Wednesday to designate Berry � or even another pending free agent, like star nose tackle Dontari Poe � with the franchise tag. The team can only use it on one player, so one could hit the open market with zero restrictions if the Chiefs can�t sign at least one of them to an extension before the deadline. �We�ll just work on that as we go along here,� Hunt said, when asked if Poe will be back. �There�s a sequence we need to approach things with � we�ve still got a few weeks before we get into free agency, and Dontari is somebody we�d love to have back with the team this year.� Berry, for his part, would love to be back, too, though he admits he does not know what the future holds. �I really hope so � I think so, too,� Berry said, when asked if he thinks he�ll remain in Kansas City. �Only time will tell. We�ll see.� BERRY NAMED TEAM MVP � Berry � who delivered a second consecutive all-pro season with shades of dominance unlike the 22-sack contract season that helped Justin Houston earn a $101 million extension � was announced as the Derrick Thomas Team MVP at the 101 Awards on Sunday night. This marks the second time Berry, 28, has won the award during his seven-year career with the Chiefs. Last season, he shared it with quarterback Alex Smith. But this time, Berry earned it all on his own, winning the award � which is voted on by Chiefs players � unanimously, something Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt couldn�t remember happening recently. �Very few� have done that, �if ever,� Hunt said. But Berry did, not only by racking up 77 tackles, nine pass deflections and four interceptions, but also delivering some iconic moments in thrilling victories. He made a game-winning �pick-two� in his return to his hometown of Atlanta, and his pick-six against Carolina changed the game as the Chiefs mounted a 17-point comeback.

Sex sell because we are programmed to be addicted to it. We get stuck in cycles within the mind (hmm, kinda like the circle of life) so we see an image and it sends messages to the brain and the brain sends the message to the body "I want , I need , I desire this high". The orgasm although fleeting , the idea, anticipation of it, is a huge human distraction. Not suggesting it doesn't feel 'good' but at what cost.
Also, if I see an ad of a woman who is supposedly desirable and she is wearing certain jeans, perfume etc. I will automatically associate this when I think about making a purchase, "I want to be desired by men like women who wear this brand." Voila, the company makes a sale.
So, why do I want to be desired by men? Well, this has mostly to do with the money system. Rarely, if ever, does it have anything to do with what is best for all. Self interest, survival, greed are some descriptions that come up. I won't discount the desire for company and companionship that is often the result of a 'romantic' union between two people but I can get that with other friends, co-workers, aquaintances, and family. I also won't discount the desire to fulfill the sexual urge that one builds up over time and the overwhelming need to 'release' it but to be honest you don't need another person to do that. It can be done all by ones self. And why the desire to be attractive to 'men' and not just one 'man'?
I believe the need to be desired by 'men' is because one may need to go back to the well should things not work out with the current partner. You still gotta have the 'goods' to attract another! As a young woman, I wanted marriage-seal the deal- to have children and provide income, support. A family costs substantially more than living on your own. Yes, one of the major reasons sex sells is so women can copy the image they see in the media and feel they possess the physical presentation that will attract a man and that will result in financial support and survival needs met. Plain and simple.
In an equal money system this type of dependency does not exist because all of ones basic living needs are met. There would be no need to have a legal pairing with another to attempt to ensure financial stability.

Last night
Too many ciggy
too many ciggy
too man cigarettes
fancy manish
oh so tannish
just a reality jolt
Prideful outspoken and bleating hearts yelp for inclusion, leap for the camera at dour occasion.
Searching for a more complete word for man. Earthlings, spiritus corpus, Us. Nature in flesh seems better to me; nature that takes and gives, ravishes and nurtures, builds and destroys. We are part of Nature, Science, things that are and have no classifications or codifying, things in the ether that question themselves and the surroundings, entrapment questions.
Most people's bravado is self-esteem and jealousy
And I couldn't hate you but I do just the same
Memories go again and my anger doesn't change
Thought I was better than this and got over
Just more mirages and smoke cancer mirrors
Feed me the poison cull the remedy
Rhythmic persuasion those hips confuse confound me
Too much time gone but recently understood the personal injury
Maybe it was lovelorn or prideful puncturing
I should get over but in me it repeats
Angry at myself for another reason addition
So much space of loathing must be the Catholic in me
How come I'm only honest when drunk and lonely
Scar face and ugly
Black mirror break it
Que sara
A Mask for you and you...
I think it's so easy to do so wrong cause we don't see ourselves or face the face. Mirrors reflect self-perceived idol of the unreflective idles, only see concern on other one's faces. Friend, foe and acquaintances furrow brow and wrinkle faces to assess us. Tsk tsk and risk aversion. Criticize the selfish and break up polygamists, keep people safe along with bracing freethinking, embracing self-effacing unless commencing the judging. Heart in right proximity but logic escaping, freebasing rhetoric with doctrines unyielding.
Slops and slurs, pussy and tits on male lips
Vocal arrangements caustic dement distort my squared area of comfort
Loud lascivious exhortations fuster and folly slurps creative juices
Liquid, cream, butter nuts squoze nasty nas rhythmic drippings
I'm just as bad as these lewd clowns making light and bright of bodies in femspot, future holes n wet spot
Chapter 2 sprees
Killer clones clowning melancholy bullies cloying callous kill kill jelly jam us brash skin tags pierce like ears of cow slavery
He's bright, he's a aflower
He's a peacock proper
Strut strut scratch
Beak between the flaps
She burns me and I like it
Sensual being heats my body
Torches blazes my chest, my loins, my everything
Confused heart palpitates
Hard fast beat hard
Love lust lusting for bodice unfolded

The above photo has been circulating the web. It was taken during the time of Hurricane Sandy. This scene gives a slight glimpse of what the skies of the "New Earth" will reveal perpetually, as is true also of this planet's Inner Earth realm. Although the Inner Earth and the New Earth that awaits us, demonstrate far more spectacular displays.
The following is an article I wrote for my then publication, THE SOURCE in 1981 (issue 3-81).
MR. ISAAC N. VAIL (1840-1912) developed a concept which he anointed as the "Canopy Theory," postulating the presence of a high atmospheric cloud covering and encircling the Earth in prehistoric times, consisting of ice crystals. To quote from the publication "Earthfire 2" on the subject:
Just how plausible is the idea of a water canopy once existing at such a high level? There are several likely altitudinal candidates which even today exist as possible 'remnants' of the prehistoric canopy: at the 22 mile and 50 mile levels, thin, pearly clouds of ice crystals are sometimes seen, called nacreous and noctillucent clouds, respectively. Atmospheric conditions are right at these altitudes for the creation of much larger suspended ice crystal formations, if water vapor could somehow be 'pumped off' and 'held' in those regions. Still higher, above the stratosphere, is an area called the troposphere, which borders on the edge of space, and here, between 80 and 85 miles above the Earth, is a specific layer called the thermosphere. Here, the temperature reaches well above the boiling point of water, and remains constant day and night. This layer has the potential for holding indefinitely a vast quantity of water vapor, and there is evidence that it may have done just that, for traces of water-cluster ions have been discovered at that altitude. As to what happened to the ancient water canopy can be found in the Genesis story of Noah's flood. Genesis 7:11-12, 19 reads: 'On that day the windows of the heavens were opened and rain fell upon the earth forty days and forty nights.' Clearly, no normal rainstorm in the atmosphere could have created so vast a quantity of water, the only answer is that the 'windows of heaven were opened' refers to a collapse of the old water canopy and the sudden and tragic precipitation of what would have been perhaps millions of tons of water from high in the sky onto the surface of the Earth.
SUBTERRANEAN RECORDS confirm the existence of this water canopy in what the inner inhabitants of this planet call the "crystal veil" above the surface of the Earth in ancient times. For the dwellers of the interior, the canopy is not so removed from them by time, for their atmosphere still harbors a similar canopy… a crystal veil. In Issue 1-80 of The Source is stated…While the solar orb is without atmosphere, suspended in airless space, the Central Atoma (central sun) is within a field of density at the very heart of a matter-sphere. Within a few miles of the corona the atmosphere is so heavy that a thick hydrogen vapor is present which bursts into illumination. As the Earth rotates on its axis, variations occur in the density of this vapor, or Helia, causing different intensities of light.
Between the Helia and the interior surface of Subterranea, there exists a form of ice crystal canopy, which interacts with the effects of the Helia to create beautiful geometric impressions in the ether. However, the inner canopy is somewhat different from the ancient outer crystal veil. The inner version is not as consistent a layer, but forms more in circular patterns in the sky, like giant lenses placed in grid fashion throughout the inner heaven. As the Atoma pulsates, so the intensity of the inner veil canopy increases and decreases. The clouds of the canopy consist of a different composition than the ancient outer in that there is a greater etheric charge and more hydrogen and oxygen contained within the crystals. This, combined with the vastly different polarity fields and gravity-constant of the central cavity, create unique properties not present in the ancient canopy. Yet, the basic conditions and effects of the two canopies are the same.
Continuing from "Earthfire 2" on the ancient outer canopy:
…if the 'heavenly' covering was composed mostly of hexagonal-shaped ice crystals (just as 'remnant' clouds found very high up in the atmosphere are today) it means that the sun's and moon's rays passing through the crystals have been refracted, creating halos and other spectacular atmospheric phenomena. Today we see these 'light shows' on rare occasions when conditions are just right, and they take the form of 'mock suns', rings, light circles, arcs, 'sun pillars', 'crosses', and 'sun-dogs'; but thousands of years ago, with a crystalline sphere in place overhead, such halo phenomena would have been an every-day occurrence, and prehistoric man could not have failed to notice them.
Such megalithic stations as Stonehenge were, among other geo-cosmic purposes, observatories for the geometric form evidenced through the crystal veil of the Ancients. At the poles, the light formations refracted through the crystal veil would have been especially prominent, as they are at the polar windows within the planet. In the publication Stonehenge Viewpoint:
The reader will recall the claim made on a former page (of S.V.) that all canopy 'portions' must eventually pose in the polar sky as majestic archways; that these forms though fiery and lurid under the blaze of the hidden sun would appear like a great mountain heap of concentric curves, and each curve would conceal a portion of the true sky, and the whole mass, as we learn from the Book of Job, is represented as something 'stretched' or arched over a small portion of 'empty space'… a number of these arches would make a stupendous 'arcanm' or cosmic depository. The upper portion of this mountain heap, being vastly nearer the observation of southern Europe, would appear to be made up with a congregation of portions whose lower parts would run together and unite as in a vanishing-point in the north horizon, or perhaps below the horizon. A very appropriate name for such a heap would be the 'Mount of Assembling' or the 'Mount of Congregation.
In Issue 3-80 of The Source I state…All manner of habitation within and upon the Earth sphere exists through the inter-penetration of spirit and matter. Thus, as the solar wind of the Earth Atoma moves through the vibra-plane, via the surface Earth chakras, both major and minor, it must pass through a receiving station within the central habitation, and this station is the Sacred Center of all Earthen matter, the great mountain of the SAF-FIRE, which could be analogous to the aorta of the heart (Atoma).
All of the sacred lands of the Earth (especially the high plateaus and mountains) are channelled through the subterranean mountain of the SAF-FIRE. It is within this holy mountain that all Earth's nature forces are united with the Spirit.
The Mountain of the Saf-fire is composed of the polar concentrations of the inner crystal veil and a density of the ice crystals so matter-orientated as to be attached to the plain of the inner world. The "Mount of Assembling" is seen within the central cavity at both polar openings as a reflection in the heavens, appearing mirage-like at certain periods during the contraction and expansion of the Atoma cycle. Since the inner world geo-symmetry is concave and not convex, as is its outer shell, the refractive and reflective power of the Central Earth's ice canopy triggers a greater transportation of image through its light-wave medium, focusing its polar light at a common center between the poles.
THE ACTUAL LOCATION of the Saf-fire Mountain – the point where it densifies to attach itself to the inner planet, is in the "center field" or "travex" of the inner plain. The travex is the point which is geo-cosmically (according to all planetary relative fields of association) the center of the terra firma of the interior world. (Not to be confused with the center of the Earth as a hollow spatial cavity – the center of this space being the Atoma.) The Saf-fire Mountain or "heap" is the cosmic surveyors' golden mark of the travex. In the upper reaches of the inner sky, the Saf-fire is refracted light – haloing, arching, cascading in the heaven – a glory of color, a melody of light as it pirouettes in sun dances with the changing Earth Tides. The middle portion of the Saf-fire is denser, less brilliant and more diffused. The lower region of the Mount becomes more and more solid as the ice crystal lattices bind into closer geometries, forming the glacial heap attached to the Earth. Because this Assemblage is focused through a strong magnetic field (the central sun using the crystal Mount like a conductive coil), temperatures are low only within a narrow radius of the mountain.

YouTuber Logan Paul Posts Footage of Apparent Suicide Victim
Outcry after American posts video in which he jokes with friends over apparent suicide victim they came across in forest
This article titled "YouTube star Logan Paul apologises for film of man's body in Japan" was written by Justin McCurry in Tokyo, for The Guardian on Tuesday 2nd January 2018 18.57 UTC
The celebrity YouTuber Logan Paul has apologised after sparking outrage by posting a video showing the body of an apparent suicide victim in Japan.
The 22-year-old American, who has 15 million subscribers on YouTube, was labelled "disrespectful" and "disgusting" after he joked with his friends about discovering the body in Aokigahara forest, a notorious suicide spot at the base of Mount Fuji.
The video, which Paul posted on Sunday, received millions of views before it was removed.
Paul and his friends, who are filming from various locations in Japan, reportedly came across the body moments after entering the forest. Their video showed the body of a man, whose identity is unknown, from several angles but blurs his face.
A member of the group is heard remarking that he "doesn't feel good". Paul replies: "What, you never stand next to a dead guy?" and then laughs.
The exchange, and the decision to upload images of the victim, prompted a wave of criticism online.
The Breaking Bad actor Aaron Paul tweeted: "You disgust me. I can't believe that so many young people look up to you. So sad. Hopefully, this latest video woke them up … Suicide is not a joke. Go rot in hell."
Fellow YouTube star Kandee Johnson said: "Dear @youtube, after the Logan Paul video where he shows a dead body of a suicide victim, uses that for the title, makes heartless jokes next to the body, there needs to b age restrictions for certain creators. How is this allowed on YT? His followers are children! Horrifying."
Paul later apologised to his 3.9 million followers on Twitter: "Where do I begin … Let's start with this – I'm sorry," he said.
"This is a first for me. I've never faced criticism like this before, because I've never made a mistake like this before."
He added: "I didn't do it for views. I get views. I did it because I thought I could make a positive ripple on the internet, not cause a monsoon of negativity. That's never the intention. I intended to raise awareness for suicide and suicide prevention."
But the initial statement was criticised by many, including the Game Of Thrones actor Sophie Turner, who tweeted: "You're not raising awareness. You're mocking. I can't believe how self-praising your 'apology' is. You don't deserve the success (views) you have. I pray to God you never have to experience anything like that man did."
British Labour MP Melanie Onn, who had tweeted that she bought a Logan Paul hoodie as a Christmas present for her 10-year-old son, said the video was "dreadful", adding: "I can't believe he was able to put that up without any checks at all."
Paul later issued a second statement of apology. "I want to apologise to anyone who has seen the video. I want to apologise to anyone who has been affected or touched by mental illness or depression or suicide, but most importantly I want to apologise to the victim and his family," he said. "For my fans who are defending my actions, please don't – they do not deserve to be defended."
YouTube said Paul's video violated its policies, but did not respond to calls to suspend him from the site.
"Our hearts go out to the family of the person featured in the video," a YouTube spokeswoman said. "YouTube prohibits violent or gory content posted in a shocking, sensational or disrespectful manner. If a video is graphic, it can only remain on the site when supported by appropriate educational or documentary information and in some cases it will be age-gated."
Aokigahara has gained worldwide notoriety as a suicide spot, with a record 105 bodies reportedly discovered there in 2003. Local police have stopped releasing the number of annual deaths in an attempt to reduce the area's association with suicide.
The forest's hiking trails are dotted with signs urging those with suicidal thoughts to consider their families and contact a suicide prevention group.
The number of Japanese who kill themselves has fallen in recent years, although the country still has the sixth highest suicide rate in the world.
The number of people who took their own lives dropped to 21,897 in 2016 – the lowest level in 22 years – according to government figures.
The number rose in the late 1990s and remained just above 30,000 for more than 10 years – a rate experts partly attributed to financial pressures caused by the collapse of the bubble economy in 1992 and the end of lifetime employment.
The lack of services for people with mental health problems, as well as debt and serious illness – particularly among elderly people – have also been cited as common causes of suicide in Japan.
The figure has remained below 30,000 a year since 2012.
In the UK, Samaritans can be contacted on 116 123. In the US, the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline is 1-800-273-8255. In Australia, the crisis support service Lifeline is 13 11 14. Other international suicide helplines can be found at www.befrienders.org.

An Atlanta police officer shot and killed a man at a Wendy's drive-thru Friday night.
(CNN) — An Atlanta police officer shot and killed a man at a Wendy's drive-thru Friday night after he resisted arrest and struggled for an officer's Taser, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation said in a statement.
The GBI identified the slain man as Rayshard Brooks, 27, of Atlanta.
The killing comes amid global protests and discussion of police use of force following the death of George Floyd last month in custody in Minneapolis. Atlanta has seen frequent protests, including some that turned violent.
Six Atlanta Police Department officers were facing charges of using excessive force during one, Fulton County District Attorney Paul Howard announced June 2. Two of the officers were fired by Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms.
Friday, officers responded to a call at 10:33 p.m. about a man sleeping in a parked vehicle in the drive-thru, causing other customers to drive around it, the GBI said in a statement.
Police gave Brooks a field sobriety test, which he failed, the GBI said. He resisted arrest and struggled with officers, the GBI said.
An officer drew his Taser and, witnesses said, the man grabbed it, the statement said. An officer then shot him.
Brooks was taken to a hospital, where he died, the statement said.
One officer was treated for an injury and released, the GBI said.
The GBI is investigating at the request of the APD, the statement said. Once completed, the case will be turned over to prosecutors for review.
CNN has reached out to the APD, GBI and the mayor's office but they have not responded.
CNN affiliate WSB reports this is the 48th police shooting the GBI has investigated in 2020
Bo Dukes Sentenced To 25 Years In Prison For Covering Up Death of Tara Grinstead
ABBEVILLE, Ga. (AP) — A man convicted of helping hide the death of a missing Georgia teacher has been sentenced to 25 years in prison.
News outlets reported that 34-year-old Bo Dukes was sentenced Friday morning in court in Abbeville.
Dukes was convicted Thursday night of lying to investigators about the 2005 death of Tara Grinstead. The high school history teacher's body was burned to ash and bone fragments in a pecan orchard.
What happened to the woman wasn't revealed until Dukes and another man were arrested in 2017.
Dukes was convicted of two counts of making a false statement, hindering the arrest of a criminal and concealing a death.
His co-defendant, Ryan Alexander Duke, is charged with murder in Grinstead's death and is scheduled for trial April 1 in Irwin County.
US Supreme Court Agrees To Decide Whether Lee Boyd Malvo Gets A New Sentence
March 18 (UPI) — The U.S. Supreme Court agreed Monday to decide whether a gunman in the 2002 Beltway Sniper case should receive a new sentence because he was a teenager at the time.
The random shootings terrorized the Washington, D.C., area in September and October 2002 and killed 10 people. Lee Boyd Malvo and John Allen Muhammad were ultimately captured and convicted of the sniper killings. Muhammad was executed in 2009 and Malvo is serving six consecutive life sentences. At the time of the shootings, Malvo was 17.
The Supreme Court issued a writ of certiorari Monday to hear the appeal next term.
At issue is a 2012 Supreme Court ruling that said juveniles cannot be given mandatory life-without-parole sentences unless they committed murder or were determined permanently incorrigible.
A Virginia court last year vacated Malvo's sentences and asked a trial court to rule on whether his crimes reflect permanent incorrigibility or "the transient nature of youth."
Malvo is now 34 years old.
A U.S. Court of Appeals panel called the Beltway shootings "the most heinous, random acts of premeditated violence conceivable, destroying lives and families and terrorizing the entire Washington D.C., metropolitan area for over six weeks, instilling mortal fear daily in the citizens of that community."
The judges said, "Malvo was 17 years old when he committed the murders, and he now has the retroactive benefit of new constitutional rules that treat juveniles differently for sentencing."
Malvo faces life without parole in Maryland, where he killed six people. That sentence was upheld in 2017 and is pending at the state Supreme Court. Muhammad, who was 25 years older than Malvo, smuggled him into the country illegally from Antigua.

New TB case confirmed at Toronto Catholic high school
For the second time in less than a month, the Toronto Catholic District School Board says a case of tuberculosis has been confirmed in one of its high schools.
A case of the potentially lethal infectious disease was at Chaminade College School, which located at 490 Queen's Dr., near Highway 400 and Jane Street.
The board is not disclosing if a staff member or student contracted tuberculosis.
Late last month, the school board confirmed a separate tuberculosis case at Mary Ward Catholic Secondary School in Scarborough.
A Toronto Public Health spokesperson says there is no connection between the two cases. The spokesperson said the general school population is believed to be "at low risk of exposure."

PENSACOLA, Florida – A Gulf Power team of 76 will leave early Thursday morning to assist with power restoration in the Carolinas following Hurricane Florence.
As nearly 1.5 million people face mandatory evacuation along the East Coast from Virginia to South Carolina, Hurricane Florence continues to gain strength, and is forecast to make landfall early Friday morning as a potentially devastating Category 3 storm.
The Gulf Power team — 50 lineworkers and 26 support personnel — will drive north and wait for the storm to pass before beginning their restoration work. Their work location has not been determined yet. The storm team includes an advance group who determines the scope of the damage before crews arrive.
"Hurricane Florence is a very powerful storm and we are monitoring the forecast track, so our crews can be staged and ready to help with restoration efforts for other energy providers," said Gordon Paulus, Gulf Power spokesperson. "We're prepared to send crews to help those areas devastated by Florence. It's what we do — restoring power and hope to our neighbors in their time of need."
Gulf Power has a strong history of restoring power — both at home and away assisting other utilities. Crews have deployed nearly 40 times since 2008 to help other energy companies restore power to their customers, most recently to Puerto Rico, to help rebuild the energy grid following Hurricane Maria.
Recently, in 2016, Gulf Power responded to the City of Tallahassee and Georgia Power following Hurricane Hermine's landfall. A month later, Gulf Power storm teams responded rapidly to calls for aid from Florida Public Utilities and Georgia Power, assisting with recovery operations following Hurricane Matthew. For these efforts, Gulf Power was awarded the Edison Electric Institute Emergency Assistance Award or its extraordinary work assisting in power restoration efforts in a neighboring or nearby electric company.
The energy company also received two similar awards earlier this year for restoration efforts following Hurricanes Irma in Georgia and Florida, and for the unprecedented emergency power restoration mission on the island of Puerto Rico following Hurricane Maria.
"Gulf Power is part of a mutual assistance network consisting of dozens of utilities. As part of this partnership, Gulf Power line crews provide assistance to other utilities when service to their customers is interrupted due to severe weather, and they have traveled as far away as New York and Texas to assist with restoration," Paulus said.

What Canada can and should be doing
Canada can and must open its doors to refugees. In past refugee crises Canada has responded quickly and decisively. The same level of commitment is needed now.
The CCR recommends that Canada respond to the Syrian refugee crisis as follows:
- Introduce flexible, family-linked admissions
Flexible measures (such as Temporary Resident Permits) should be introduced for Syrians with family in Canada.
- Resettle 10,000 Government-Assisted Refugees by the end of 2015
The government should resettle a minimum of 10,000 Syrians, brought to Canada immediately.
- Facilitate the private sponsorship of Syrians
Canadians should be encouraged and supported in resettling additional numbers of Syrian refugees.
- Commit to a dramatic increase in resources
The government must allocate significantly more resources (human, financial and logistical) in order to realize these recommendations.
- Convene a summit to plan medium and long term response
A national meeting should be convened involving all levels of government as well as representatives of civil society to plan Canada's resettlement response beyond the end of 2015, and to discuss how to mobilize and coordinate contributions from all sections of society.
- Maintain responses to other refugees
In responding to the urgent needs of Syrian refugees, the needs of other refugees must also be met. They should not be penalized because of the response to Syrians.
For the full recommendations, see:

The Nation
WHILE MOST OTHER countries are fast moving towards digital innovation, few parties contesting Sunday's election in Thailand have come up with tangible policies on technological development.
Chanut Kerdpradud, a social-media communication specialist, said that though many party platforms touch on technology, the only tangible policies have come from the young-generation Future Forward Party.
Pheu Thai Party's policy on bio- and nano-technology in line with global trends is not new, while the Democrat Party's policy to resolve problems between Grab Taxi and normal taxis is not exciting either, he said.
Meanwhile the pro-junta Phalang Pracharat Party's decision to maintain current policies on high-speed internet and 5G are neither eye-catching nor proactive, he said.
Only Future Forward offered a grand vision for Thailand's digital era, Chanut said.
"Future Forward's open-data policy is interesting and may be very useful for everyone, but implementing it won't be an easy job," he said.
The party's aim to introduce technology in mass transportation would also do a lot of good for the country, he added, making it competitive and a potential regional hub.
However, Chanut said, the most immediate requirement was to remove restrictions on free speech in cyberspace – something nobody has touched on yet – and introduce an e-commerce tax that does not obstruct small businesses but helps them grow.
"Also, the new government should pay more attention to cybersecurity, especially if it plans on promoting |open data," Chanut added.
Apisit Supakitcharoen, a lecturer at Ramkhamhaeng University's Faculty of Mass Communication, agreed that very few parties had concrete technology-related policies. He said most had merely vowed to maintain existing technologies or were talking vaguely about how the Internet of Things would make commuting in Bangkok easier. No party was talking about more important things, such as digital and media literacy, said Apisit.
"Our society is sorely lacking in digital and media literacy. The tools are not the concern – we already have enough. But teaching people how to use digital technology properly is the important issue," Apisit said, pointing to the bitter political divide.
These two subjects are a huge concern because so many people use digital technology to create and disseminate hate speech, he said.
"Technology infrastructure is also not an urgent issue, because the private sector is doing its part in developing it," he said.
Apisit also said the new government should pay close attention to the Personal Data Protection Act, which could threaten the free flow of internet information and use.
"Many parties have mentioned 'open [government] data', which might be not practical because of this act," Apisit said.
Worawisut Pinyoyang, founding partner of Shift Ventures, said political parties should come up with policies to support the so-called sharing economy and make laws and regulations more flexible in line with people's changing behaviour. He said policies to aid startups and digital talent were also required, as the job of promoting e-commerce should not just be left to the ministries of Digital Economy and Society and Science and Technology.
