India's Panda the rise and fall of Sabyasachi Panda in India's Maoist movement
India's Panda the rise and fall of Sabyasachi Panda in India's Maoist movement
Sabyasachi Panda is an ordinary man with a curious claim to fame. A mathematics graduate from a middling college in rural India, Panda, with his custom short haircut (combed to the side), generic reading glasses, and stock-standard moustache (almost universal amongst Indian men), speaks softly and almost entirely in well-worn clichés. Unimposing (both in personality and physicality), neither impressive nor unimpressive, intellectually unremarkable and entirely non-descript in appearance, by all logic, Panda really ought to have lived out his days quietly and unnoticed in the shadows – just another face in India.
The fact that he has not stands as an affront to any ideal of a merit based society. Panda's prominence, it seems, is an accident of history; something that should ordinarily provoke protests – he just does not seem like someone who deserves media attention. Yet it is safe to say that no one in India today envies Panda as he sits in solitary confinement facing an almost certain life sentence. His mug-shot remains the last and only indication that there might be something more to his character: the man now considered a martyr for his cause – "India's Che Guevara" (Pandita 2012) – is spitefully pouting as he stares down the camera in a final act of defiance.

A fundraiser will be held for Minooka natives who will be competing in the 2019 World Roller Games
Northern Illinois Junior Roller Derby is hosting a Double Header Bout on March 23 at at Skateland Recreation Center, 25334 W Eames St. in Channahon.
This fundraiser supports two of its founding members who have rostered for Team USA and will be playing roller derby at the 2019 World Roller Games in Spain this summer.
Sisters Mackenzie and Lily Chesko along with another former Radioactive Rollers teammate, Sofia Hernandez of Chicago, have reached the highest level of competition in the sport of roller derby.
As part of Team USA, they will compete in the World Roller Games being held July 8 through July 14 in Barcelona, Spain.
The Minooka High School graduates grew up skating at Channahon's Skateland Recreation Centre and started playing roller derby in 2011.
Along with playing at the junior level, including the first Junior World Cup and Junior Olympic roller derby events, the sisters enjoyed playing for the Chicago Red Hots (a USARS adult level team whose ruleset allows for elite level skaters ages 14 and up to participate).
Mackenzie's current home team is the Bellingham Roller Betties in Bellingham, Washington.
Lily currently plays for the Illiana Derby Dames in Lynnwood, Illinois. Joining the girls as a referee in Spain will be their father, Ron Chesko, founding President of NIJRD.
The Radioactive Rollers team (part of the NIJRD league) are proud to support the Cheskos as they travel to Barcelona, Spain to compete at the 2019 World Roller Games.
The fundraising event on March 23will include a junior bout and an adult bout. The four teams will be comprised of skaters from all over the Midwest. The junior bout will begin at 6 p.m. and the adults will play at 7:30 p.m.
Admission is free and open to the general public. Donations will be accepted at the door. There will also be a bake sale, basket raffle and vendor tables at the event. All proceeds will be split between NIJRD and the girls.
NIJRD continues to practice at Skateland Recreation Center in Channahon from 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday evenings and 9:30 to 11 a.m. Sunday mornings. Skaters range in age from 6 to 17. All skating abilities are welcome and encouraged to join.
Skates are available to rent and protective gear is available to borrow for anyone to try the sport without commitment.
For more information, email NIJRD at firstname.lastname@example.com or on Facebook @NIJRDLeague.

|[jira] [Commented] (YARN-3409) Add constraint node labels
|Thu, 01 Dec 2016 20:12:58 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-3409?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15712946#comment-15712946 ] Wangda Tan commented on YARN-3409: ---------------------------------- Thanks all for discussion, sorry for the delayed response, I'm still on vacation and I should be able to participate more discussions from next week. [~Naganarasimha], I think POC will be helpful to understanding the scope, but from my POV, the biggest challenge of this task is properly design API and deciding how to make it work with existing features (like locality/partition) and future features (like YARN-4902 / global scheduling, etc.) Following are overall thoughts in my mind: h3. 1. For the (old) ResourceRequest API, we have a couple of choices: *Choice a.* Use nodeLabelExpression to specify nodePartition and nodeConstraint altogether Pros: - This has good semantic, since "constraint" could be considered as one special kind of "label" Cons: - We have to add a new field for affinity/anti-affinity - Some existing implementation assumes "nodeLabelExpression" equals to partition *Choice b.* Add a new field for constraint expression, and also for affnity/anti-affinity (Per suggested by Kostas). This should have minimum impact to existing features. But after this, the "nodeLabelExpression becomes a little ambiguous, we may need to deprecate existing nodeLabelExpression. *My preference:* *Personally I prefer b.* but it's better to rename nodeConstraintExpression to placementStrategy so we can have consistent naming and semantics after YARN-4902. Actually in my POC patch of YARN-1042 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12822186/YARN-1042-global-scheduling.poc.1.patch#file-0), I use the {{pacementStrategy}} as the name h3. 2. For CLI / REST API to manage (add/remove) and get constraint, we also have a couple of choices: *Choice a.* Add a set of new APIs / CLI to manage node constraints, for example, we can have a REST API {{POST /node-constraints/add}} to add node constraints *Choice b.* Extend existing {{NodeLabel}} object to support node constraint, we only need two additional field to support node constraint. 1) isNodeConstraint 2) Value (For example, we can have a constraint named jdk-verion, and value could be 6/7/8). *My perference:* Personally I prefer b. Since we can reuse most of existing CLI / REST API implementations. I found there're some other discussions need to be settled. Such as, support rack constraint, should we have node constraint added to non-ANY request, etc. I suggest to discuss them after we get consensus about above two points. Please share your thoughts (Clearly stating which one you most prefer with some explanations will be better). + [~email@example.com], [~kkaranasos], [~devaraj.k], [~varun_saxena]. > Add constraint node labels > -------------------------- > > Key: YARN-3409 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-3409 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: api, capacityscheduler, client > Reporter: Wangda Tan > Assignee: Naganarasimha G R > Attachments: Constraint-Node-Labels-Requirements-Design-doc_v1.pdf > > > Specify only one label for each node (IAW, partition a cluster) is a way to determinate how resources of a special set of nodes could be shared by a group of entities (like teams, departments, etc.).

American Idol
See, I hate this part. We're down to the final three and I wanna keep 'em all. Can I pleeeease? Come on. How come guest judge Clive Davis can't just sign all of them? I mean, it's his label. And that way, we'd be spared the eliminations. Not to mention more of my whining, 'cause I have a feeling that I'm going to be really pouty after the Wednesday show. Tonight I'm far from sour, since we got three songs each from our trio. One Clive picked, another the singers chose and the last was cooked up by the judges. So let's try to focus on the positive and leave the worrying to Ryan Seacrest's stylist. Who totally needs to fix that boy's highlights.
Vonzell: OK, deep breaths. Ugh. What was Clive thinking? "I'll Never Love This Way Again" is tough even for Dionne, you know? So I can forgive the wobbly notes at the beginning. Mostly because Baby V.'s pick of "Chain of Fools" and Simon's absolute gift of "On the Radio" were simply... wow. Slap my butt and call me happy. Even if she gets the boot, this one is for real, for real.
Bo: Oh. My. God. Forget that Paula went with a gimmicky tune like the Stones' "Satisfaction." He rocked it like a hurricane. Same with Clive's selection, "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" (which, FYI, begs for a Michael Jackson joke that would probably cost me my job). But it was Bogart's brilliant idea to serve up an acoustic rendition of Badlands' "In a Dream" that still has me sweating like Corey Clark on a polygraph machine. They should just hand him the contract now and call it a day.
Carrie: Amen, Randy. The girl can blow. She should also send that nice Mr. Davis a thank-you note for giving her the Roy Orbison/k.d. lang belter, "Crying." Those may have been her best vocals ever. Deciding to tackle Air Supply's "Making Love out of Nothing at All" was a smart move, too, though she sounded more like Pat Benatar here than when she actually sang "Love Is a Battlefield." Plus, it's Air Supply and they're weird. But my real issue is why Randy would stick her with a pile of dawg doo like Shania Twain's "Man, I Feel Like a Woman." Thankfully, our little country girl gave it more than it deserved. Maybe even too much. Though probably not enough to knock her out of the running. And that's aiiight. Damian J. Holbrook

Gilmore Girls
I think I need a minute alone with my Kleenex. [Sniffling and wiping eyes. Taking a deep, deep breath.] OK, I think I'm good. But you won't mind if I get all verklempt, right? 'Cause I'm pretty sure I can't write about Lorelai asking Luke to marry her (!!!) without getting totally choked up. How amazing and unexpected was that? Lorelai has finally come of age, shedding the self-doubt and flightiness that made her oblivious to the perfect thing right in front of her. As Luke rambled on about his master plan to get Rory back into Yale, we literally watched the transformation come across her face. (Lauren Graham deserves an Emmy nod for that scene alone.) It was the perfect ending to the best season yet. (Please, oh, please, we don't want to wait an entire year for this wedding! November sweeps would be perfect, thanks.)
Sure, I'm still swooning over the proposal, but this ep was incredibly bittersweet. Lorelai and Rory, whose lives have always merged so perfectly, have veered terribly off-course. From her new Richie-Rich Yalie friends to her very Richie-Rich boyfriend to her new living arrangement with her Richie-Rich grandparents, Rory is proving to be a true blue-blooded Gilmore, much to her mother's dismay. And now that Emily and Richard have their moneyed hands on Rory, Lorelai's lost yet another piece of what was once her sweet, down-to-earth daughter. (How bad did you feel for Lorelai, watching from outside as Rory put her books away inside the pool house?) Perhaps mom does need to let go a little and trade one bond for another. Good thing Luke's right there waiting with his toolbox, the Twickum house and his dreams of their children filling up their home. (There I go, getting all teary-eyed again.) I can't wait until next season. Robin Honig
Britney and Kevin: Chaotic
OK, this show is nauseating, but that has less to do with the content of the show than the shoddy home-video "cinematography" by Kevin and Britney. The show is really more baffling than anything else, because before Kevin drops on the scene, Britney insists that she's never getting married again. And I get that the girl likes sex, almost obsessively apparently, but why Kevin? He was kinda somewhat attractive before he let his shaved head get all matted and unkempt, but he also claims not to believe in the institution of marriage. Yup, there's a real catch. Even her security guard, Mo, was ready to take out the glorified hanger-on. But the relationship on display for the world to see is no cutesy Nick and Jessica on the Newlyweds; in fact, those comparisons are ridiculous. Jessica and Nick are living a PG-13-rated life filmed by professional cameramen. Brit and her dirrty dude are living the XXX high life with a hand-held camcorder on what is a true candid camera. Not only does the pop star share her sex life I'm just waiting for the Paris Hilton-esque bedroom tape to leak now that Brit's figured out the night-vision function she also performs a grand inquisition on her staffers, asking them inappropriate questions about their favorite sexual positions and then chickens out and won't tell them hers. Guessing it has something to do with that treadmill in the gym. Here are a few things I learned about Ms. Spears-Federline on tonight's episode:
She thinks Pink is cool. Is that just because she once called her pretty in a song?
She has amazing hair and makeup artists who can magic away acne and bad hair extensions. That explains a lot.
Pregnancy has been very good to her either that or her interview outfit was just particularly revealing.
She's a "wham, bam, thank-you, ma'am" kind of girl. Yeah, she actually said that.
She doesn't care what her dream man looks like so long as he's not a--faced ugly. Aw, who says romance is dead?
Love is a big mystery to her, and so are the lyrics to Eminem's "My Band" song with D12.
She has stars on her tour bus ceiling, which I applaud as a slightly less tacky choice than mirrors.
Her dream man is Brad Pitt. Too bad that now he's free-ish, she's off the market. They would have given Tom and Katie a run for their US Weekly covers.
She's looking for a man who is cool, not really phased by that much stuff, and who hasn't seen that much of the world. I guess two out of three ain't bad.
My fave quote of the night: When her antagonized limo driver begged not to be asked about his bedroom activities, she just drawled, "It's not all about sex, y'all." Um... OK, you say so. Angel Cohn
The Shield
An empty cop car sitting there spinning its lights... two officers not answering their radios... that was just plain creepy. Poor Carl. Poor Scooby. (I'm guessing he earned the nickname back when he shot that mute pit bull.) And the scene where Aceveda comes across their mangled bodies was just brutal. On the other hand, the hunt for a pair of cop corpses did bring everyone together, right? Look at Shane, getting all cozy with the old crew. Look at Aceveda playing patrolman and calling his former precinct his family. Heck, even Claudette seems to have softened up and forgiven Dutch for pimping her integrity to the D.A. But something tells me the lovefest won't last with Antwone in the hot seat. How are they going to pin the cop killings on him without his spilling the beans on Shane? If anyone can pull it off, Vic can, but with Rawling in the room throwing curveballs at Antwone, Mackey's going to need some help from David Blaine to pull this one off!
Good thing the Salvadorans coughed up the location of that dead teen, but Dutch and Lem better dig fast, 'cause judging from the previews, it looks like Antwone's about to start singing. I could tell you who's going down next week, but you don't have a badge or Level 3 clearance, so you'll just have to follow the fault lines and steer clear of those foreign operatives. Dan Roberts

One day after telling gamers to "celebrate" the fact that so many good games are shipping across consoles (including Horizon Zero Dawn), Phil Spencer talked to fans that are worried about the Xbox brand's current state. "Gaming [is] not a race between two consoles," Spencer responded to one such user who was worried about the Xbox One trailing PlayStation 4 sales. "Good games aren't weapons [versus other platforms], we work to make [Xbox and Windows 10] great places [to] play."
Phil then clarified the statement by saying that his view has "nothing to do" with the company's current share on the marketplace. He stated that "gaming has a much bigger opportunity than [a] two console battle," and that creating great games is a critical part of that. Spencer believes that Xbox's PC work is already paying off as games like Fallout Shelter are already coming to the console thanks to the Universal Windows Platform.
These views are consistent with past statements from Spencer, who has constantly praised the work of great developers no matter what system they are currently developing for. While it's easy to get caught up in the unprecedented success of the PlayStation 4, the Xbox One has not been a disaster of a console for Microsoft. The system has sold well, especially since the launch of the Xbox One S. In another tweet, Spencer said that Xbox is having its best generation yet, and while there is clearly room to improve he's "proud of where of where we are."
Hopefully Spencer's comments will rub off on gamers, as everybody loses when console fans bicker about superiority.

Benefits mum-of-five wants a BIGGER home so her kids don't have to share a bedroom
A BENEFITS mother-of-five is demanding a bigger home - so her children do not have to SHARE a bedroom.
Unemployed mum-of-five Rachael Dower wants a bigger home so her kids don't have to share a bedroom
Unemployed Rachael Dower, 28, says her housing provider must upgrade her as her brood has outgrown her current property.
She has not worked in over ten years and now she wants a larger house so her children all have their own space.
The benefits-reliant mother lives with her partner Keith Birchmore, 29, and kids in a two bedroom home in Camborne, Cornwall, and says she has spent six months trying to move.
She says she feels justified in making the demands as it is "unfair" that her daughter, Antonia, 11, has to share what she describes as a tiny "box room" with four brothers - Blake, two, Keedan, nine, Rhys, eight, and Oakley, six.
She said: "I know people say it's my fault for having so many kids but it's what I wanted. We are just asking for an extra bedroom.
"We just want to move into a nice family home. It's not family-like here. At the moment they are all in one box room and it's not a good way for the children to live.
Antonia, 11 currently shares tiny 'box room' with four brothers - Blake, Keedan, Rhys, and Oakley
"I don't mind the boys sharing but my daughter is approaching the age when she will be experiencing lady problems so it's so important for her to get her own space.
I know people say it's my fault for having so many kids but it's what I wanted
"It's not fair on my daughter and it's driving me nuts. She has not got her own privacy. It's not fair at all."
Miss Dower says she has been asking Coastline Housing for a bigger home for half a year.
She says that she gets around £240 a week in total benefits and they currently have all of their rent paid for through housing benefit.
Miss Dower had previously been in £1500 rent arrears but claims that she was promised by the provider that they would find her a more suitable property once her payments were up-to-date.
But having cleared her debts at a rate of £85 a week she says she is still waiting for news of a bigger property becoming available.
Miss Dower currently gets £240 in benefits and her rent is paid for through housing benefit
She also registered with Cornwall Council's Homechoice scheme in an effort to get a new home, but despite being accepted onto it after eight weeks of waiting, has yet to hear of a suitable property.
She added: "We moved here nine years ago and although we got into arrears two years ago, we paid it off and I presumed that this would allow for us to move into a new house.
"I've been told that Coastline doesn't have a suitable property available.
"Even a three bed property would be an improvement as it's not fair on my daughter having to share with her four brothers."
"I don't want to be here for another year, we wanted to be out by Christmas but that didn't happen."
Miss Dower added that she will look for work in the future.
She said: "I did work - I worked in a riding school before my daughter was born 11 years ago. I do want to work."
The housing provider said that there were currently no homes available.
In a statement, Coastline Housing said: "We understand as this family has grown their home is now too small for their needs.
"Our lettings team is working with the family and Cornwall HomeChoice. We hope to be able to offer them a move to a suitable larger home in the not too distant future, when one becomes available."
Mr Birchmore works as a mechanic but does not earn enough to mean they have to pay rent themselves.

No, of course it can't. It's a nail polish. But it can change colour based on the temperature. What is the point in that you might ask? And the answer is there is no point, but it would be a cool trick to show off at a party.
A couple of brands make this colour-changing nail varnish. There is In the Mood which retails at $8 a pop.
Here's a video showing how it works.
Then there's also Mia Secret
Their nail polishes retail at around $5 each or you can buy a set of 6 for around $18. It's very gimmicky and they're probably not the best quality but they'd probably be fun for an evening. Like one evening though. Then it would get super old.

The Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory—glory as of the Father's only Son—full of grace and truth (John 1:14).
"The Word became flesh…" Each of these words is chock full of life-changing significance. While a column like this can only touch the surface of their meaning, I hope the following reflections will serve to increase your love of our Incarnate Savior this Christmas.
The Word… From the first verses of Scripture, we learn that the God of Israel is One who speaks (Genesis 1:1-3). God reveals not only information about His identity but also declares what is good and pleasing in His sight (Genesis 1:4). To hear and obey God's Word is to believe that what God says "proves true" (Proverbs 30:5) and that God's Word is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path (Psalms 119:105). What God says to us shapes the course of our lives together as God's people. Indeed this Word is not far from us (Deuteronomy 30:11-14), and the Word is described as "coming" to the Lord's prophets, who in turn proclaim God's Word to God's people (see Jeremiah 1:2; Ezekiel 1:3; Hosea 1:1; Joel 1:1). While flowers, grass, people, and everything else in God's creation will shrivel and fade, "the Word of our God will stand forever" (Isaiah 4:8). But this Word is more than a concept to be analyzed and dissected. On the contrary, this Word is ultimately a Person—God the Son, who was in the beginning with God and who is, in fact, fully God. "Through him all things were made…" (John 1:1-2).
…became flesh… Although this same Word was "in very nature God, He did not consider equality with God as something to be used for His own advantage. Rather, he emptied himself by taking the very form of a servant, being made in human likeness…" (Philippians 2:6-7). Without ever ceasing to be God the Son, the Word became a human being—Jesus of Nazareth—and was born of the virgin Mary through the power of the Holy Spirit. As a result, the Son knew the full breadth of the human experience. He was like us in every way—except He did not succumb to temptation and sin (Hebrews 4:15). His hunger and thirst were just as real as ours, even as His tears of sorrow were just as painful as ours. Most importantly, His shed blood—though infinitely precious—was just as real as ours.
…and dwelt among us… Because the Word became flesh, salvation is both possible and available! In the Word we have more than the perfect leader or teacher; we have Someone who is uniquely capable of saving us from the just penalty of our sins. In the Word made flesh we have more than a fellow traveler on the path of life; we have a High Priest who can offer to God what we could never offer ourselves—namely, a pure and undefiled life.
Hallelujah! What a Savior! Merry Christmas!
Your Pastor,

Music: Patoranking – Gal Ting Riddim (Cover)
A few months ago, Mixpak Records producer and label head Dre Skull – the man behind recent Vybz Kartel and Popcaan albums — released Blacklight Riddim, a dancehall EP inspired by the Dembow two-bar loop, a kick-snare combination birthed across Kingston and New York that became the calling card of reggaeton.
The standout take on Dre Skull's Blacklight Riddim beat (which featured interpretations from QQ, Spice, and Tifa) came in the form of Konshens' "Gal Ting," an addictive single which took off in Jamaica over the summer. This new version sees Nigerian dancehall star Patoranking jumping on "Gal Ting" for a breezy, Lagos meets Kingston & Brooklyn reworking of the party track packed with syncopated beatwork and warped synths. Stream the new remix from Konshens, Dre Skull and Patoranking premiering below and out just in time for Notting Hill Carnival and Labor Day Parade.

Ficus Bowl 7b
This is the second, in a set of three Bowls I turned from Locally-Sourced Ficus. It stands about 4-1/2" tall at the edge, is 6-1/2" diameter, and is 3-1/4, deep. It's a Hollow-Form Bowl, meaning it has a small mouth that presents a "roof" over the hollowed-out inside.The lid-finial is also Ficus, and stands 2-1/4", making the overall height of the piece 6-3/4". The iridescence of the Ficus is stunning.
Can be purchased alone, or as a set with the other two, for a discounted price, with combined shipping.
Price doesn't include shipping.

Oh my gosh, here we are at the last two weeks of this school year, and hasn't it just flown by! Every single Bunny has grown and flourished, made good friends and will hopefully continue to make good choices in all areas of their young lives. Phoebe and I love and will miss each and every child, no matter where this coming year takes them, into the Bears class or another school. We will miss all of you wonderful parents as well. Whatever you are doing with and for your child(ren), it is exactly what you should be doing, because these little ones are healthy, happy, and thriving. There have been major changes this past year – language, self-help and independence (!) And potty success. The biggest changes you will see this coming year will be, in my opinion, #1 – their social skills: there will be a big shift from parallel play to full on interactive and community play – new and "best" friends will become important, and #2 – their even stronger sense of self and an emerging (or in some cases expanding) confidence. We wish the very best to each and all, and hope that we are not forgotten too soon!

Bunnies having fun in the sun and beach day fun
July 16-20, 2018
Oh these lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer…… Last week in the Bunnies we painted and glued pictures of watermelon. And then we ate some! YUMMY!! Some of the little ones have been working VERY hard on putting on their own socks and shoes. We applaud them and encourage parents to continue this surprisingly difficult coordination effort at home. We will be enjoying our annual BEACH DAY this coming Friday, the 20th. We suggest applying sunscreen at home and sending kids in their bathing suits. Please include a usual snack, dry clothes and a LABELED towel. We will have plenty of fun activities and fluids on hand. If your child comes only Tues or Thurs, they are welcome to attend WITH a parent (or grandparent). Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate siblings. We are happy to discuss your sweet one's progress this year with an end-of-year conference. If you prefer an early morning slot, please talk to either Phoebe or Deborah and we will make it happen! Again, if you have vacation plans, please let us know, it helps us with our planning.

The government just killed the mining sector in this critical gold nation
By Dave Forest
OilPrice.com, London
Wednesday, July 6, 2017
The Philippines government said this week it is trying to repair its damaged mining sector, with officials stating they will review all policies implemented by former environment secretary Regina Lopez, who took a hard-line stance against operations around the country.
But as that mining nation swings to the better, another key metals country has gone the other way. With the government implementing a raft of policies that may well decimate the entire sector here: Tanzania.
Tanzania's government has gone to war with miners in recent months, accusing companies like Acacia Mining of cheating on export duties, resulting in a complete ban on concentrate exports earlier this year.
And this week officials took the fight to another level, passing several new laws that will make mining much more challenging in the country. ...

Pelion is a mountain in Thessalia, Greece that in Greek mythology was thought to be the homeland of Centaurs. Today, the traditional villages of Pelion are an ideal destination for a weekend escape from the hustle and bustle of Athens or Thessaloniki. Keep in mind though that as they are over 20, and the distance between some of them can be long, you either need to choose a couple of them for your weekend or decide to take a longer break to have a better taste of Pelion. Here are the best choices if you decide to stay in the Milies area. Enjoy!
1. Rastoni Traditional Guesthouse
Built on a hill just outside Vyzitsa, and about 2km from Milies, Rastoni Guesthouse "is both the ideal departure point and the destination" when visiting Pelion. Each one of the 6 rooms is named after a female heroine of renowned Greek and International novels & poems. Every room has its own traditional fireplace, antique queen size iron bed and breathtaking view.
But these are not Rastoni's best features! What makes this guesthouse unique is its owners; Georgia gets up every morning at 5 am and bakes traditional pies with home-made pastry and serves them along with other mouthwatering treats she makes herself with fresh, local ingredients and mountain tea, while her husband Kyriakos will provide you with logs for the fireplace, set the fire and give you the best insider's tips for what to do and where to eat.
The magnificent surroundings, warm rooms and their heartwarming personality will make you fall in love with Rastoni from the very first day.
Just 200m from Rastoni, you will find the closest village, Vyzitsa. Take your camera along and stroll around the minuscule streets and the central square, then head towards the village entrance.
There, you will find "Esperides", the women's traditional cooperative, where they make and sell delicious traditional local products (spoon sweets, preserves, traditional pasta, spirits and liquors) out of the finest ingredients of Mt Pelion.
If you feel like trekking, ask there for directions to "Argiraika" waterfalls. They may not be the most impressive you have seen but this short wander in the Pelian nature is really energizing and rejuvenating. For a glorious end to your Vyzitsa visit, and to replace the calories you just lost, head towards the main square again, and choose Yiorgaras tavern.
"Anna, na ena milo" in Greek means "Anna, here is an apple", and it is a phrase that was used in the first Greek primer to teach children the letters m and n, as in Greek it contains these letters several times.
This little coffee shop in Milies (that means "Apple trees"), is themed after the aforementioned textbook; from the walls to the tableware, everything is about apples and antique primers.
Here you will find a vast selection of traditional warm drinks and desserts that are definitively worth trying, but, surprisingly, the best feature of Anna, na ena milo is the "contemporary" desserts.
My personal favourite is the lemon mousse; an exquisite creamy dessert with tingling lemony notes and the ideal amount of sweetness, combined with a crunchy topping of crushed roasted almonds … One of the best desserts I have ever tried.
4. Salkimi
Either you are looking for a place to have a full meal, or just to enjoy a carafe (or two!) of wine or tsipouro, Salkimi is the place for you. Here you will enjoy delicious local dishes, pies, meze and salads at reasonable prices (and really big portions). Our suggestions would be the Pastourmadopita and the Meatballs with tomato sauce.
And,if you choose to try the local tsipouro, they will offer you a complimentary meze (we had the Kayana (eggs and pepper with spicy tomato sauce) and it was simply delicious) .
5. Paliovigla
Between the villages Agios Georgios and Pinakates, you will find a wooden sign that says "Paliovigla". Follow it, and you will be pleasantly surprised.
Hidden on the top of a hill, you will find a wooden ranch with all kinds of farm animals peacefully enjoying their day, eating and strolling around humans, water fountains, apple trees and euphoric children.
In the main wooden hut you will also find a cafe-restaurant where the owners prepare traditional dishes from their farms ingredients. It may not be the absolute gastronomic paradise, but the whole experience and the virgin ingredients make up for the rest.
6. The old train station
Right outside Milies you will find an old train station, with what seems like an antique train that must be placed there for mere decorative reasons.
But, wait a minute! There are passengers inside and it is moving?! That's right, Mountzouris* (yes, it also has a name) is still in use. This historical lilliputian train was once the only means of transport between the city of Volos and the Pelion villages and it was used on a daily basis by commuters, merchants and visitors. Its rail system, still in perfect condition since it was built (1896) is one of the narrowest in the world, with a width of just 60cm.
Nowadays, it only departs twice a day and is mostly used by visitors, as its maximum speed is around 20km per hour and it takes about 90' to cover the distance between Milies and Volos. However, it is totally worth the ride, as you will have the opportunity to admire a wonderful vista of the wild Pelian nature (and, given the speed, you will have plenty of time to take pictures!).
*Mountzouris means Smudgy. The train was called like that because it used to work with coal.

text: Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo (Joyce, 175 Eighth Ave., closes Jan. 2). The Trocks are an all-male ballet company whose "women" dance in drag. Sometimes they do the classics more or less straight, sometimes they dance brilliantly witty parodies, and sometimes they do out-of-left-field works like Merce Cunningham's Patterns in Space, which is on the first of the two programs that they're dancing during their current New York season. No matter what they're doing, the results are at once uproariously funny and mysteriously illuminating. To spend an evening with the Trocks is to think twice–or more–about what ballet is and how it works. Very strongly recommended, even to those who (like me) are usually allergic to drag acts (TT).

Survivors of Ebola Virus Disease Have Persistent Neurological Deficits (S53.003)
Citation Manager Formats
Make Comment
See Comments
Objective: To characterize the neurologic sequelae of Ebola virus disease (EVD) survivors in Liberia. Background: The neurologic complications of EVD remain unknown. Since March 2014, there have been 10,672 reported cases with 4,808 fatalities in Liberia alone. Design/Methods: EVD survivors (n=87) enrolled in the ongoing Prevail III EVD natural history study were examined by a team of neurologists. A standardized assessment was used at the survivors' 6-month study visits to collect information on neurologic symptoms during and after EVD and to document neurologic examination findings. Four survivors with head trauma with loss of consciousness and one with schizophrenia prior to EVD were excluded from analysis. Results: Of 82 EVD survivors, the mean age was 34.6 years (SD=11.0). 53.0[percnt] were female. 69.5[percnt] of survivors were admitted to an Ebola Treatment Unit (ETU) for more than 14 days. The most commonly recalled new neurologic symptoms during or after the ETU admission were: headache, depressed mood, weakness, myalgia, and memory loss. Severe neurologic manifestations included hallucinations, meningitis, and coma. Severe manifestations were found in half of the survivors, and the remaining half had moderate manifestations. The most commonly reported ongoing symptoms were weakness, headache, depressed mood, memory loss, and myalgia. Two patients were actively suicidal and one had active hallucinations. The most common neurologic findings were abnormalities of eye pursuits and saccades in nearly two thirds of the cohort; tremor and abnormal reflexes, and abnormal sensory findings in one third, and frontal release signs in a sixth. Nearly all survivors had some neurologic disability as measured by the Modified Rankin Scale. Conclusion: Neurologic abnormalities following Ebola virus disease involved subcortical structures, cerebellar pathways, and sensory peripheral nerves and were present in most survivors. Evaluations of uninfected contacts of the survivors are ongoing and will allow for additional insight into the neurologic burden of EVD. Controls are in the process of being evaluated to determine which of these findings are Ebola-specific. Participants examined have been seen so far at only one point in time, thus it is unknown whether the symptoms will persist or resolve. Study Supported by: NINDS and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, both components of the National Institutes of Health, and the Liberian Ministry of Health.

Local mother transforms a horrible loss into something beautiful
Sara and Shaun Hagerty experienced every expecting parent's worst nightmare: a regular OB check-up revealed their son, Gabriel, had passed in utero.
"Gabriel was our surprise baby," fondly recalls Sara. "I was one of those stories–I thought I couldn't get pregnant because I was nursing. Surprise! I was already 8 weeks along by the time we discovered I was pregnant."
When the couple found out they were having another boy, Sara was ecstatic. "If I was going to have two babies close in age, then I wanted them to be the same sex." At that point, her oldest, Leah, was a toddler and her brother, JJ, was just a baby.
The heartbreak
The pregnancy progressed normally with no issues. "We had our regular check up–I was about 5 to 6 months along–and they couldn't find the heartbeat with the doppler. I instantly knew something was wrong. The night before, I hadn't been able to feel any movement, but instead of doing what I was supposed to do and call immediately, I just waited."
Sara hoped that the doppler was mistaken, but "the ultrasound confirmed he had passed," says Sara.
The doctors hoped that Sara would go into labor naturally as it was the safest option. Even though her previous births had been c-sections, surgery this early in the pregnancy was too risky. Sara explains, "It was more of a question of where they would be cutting into–it wasn't just all uterus like at the end of a pregnancy."
Sara spent two days waiting to go into labor, hoping every pain was a contraction, but ended up being induced the day before Mother's Day. "Everyone kept telling me, 'You know that's right before Mother's Day?' But I was in such a grief zone, it didn't matter."
After a long labor and delivery, baby Gabriel made his appearance late at night. "It was just me and my husband in the room…and we had a few hours to say our hellos and goodbyes."
"He was tiny and perfect. He looked like all my other babies, just smaller."
The cause of death was clear once Gabriel was delivered: an umbilical cord accident. "His umbilical cord where it entered his body was twisted very, very badly. Of course I researched umbilical cord accidents, wondering, 'Did I do this? Did I do that?' But it's ultimately an accident…a tragic and rare accident."
The Hagerty family opted for cremation because they wanted Gabriel to be part of their home. "The funeral home kept asking us, 'What do you want him to wear?' And of all the things mothers plan for and research during pregnancy, I hadn't planned on this…on my baby dying and what he was going to wear."
The healing
"The funeral home was amazing, and they suggested we find some really pretty fabric to swaddle him in. Fast forward a few months: I read about these NICU nurses in Texas who were collecting wedding dresses and making them into bereavement gowns."
"I said to my husband, 'My goodness wouldn't that be great if we had this here?' And after hearing me say that over and over, [Shaun] said, 'If you want it here, bring it here!'"
The rest, as they say, is history. Gabriel's Gowns became an immediate success, and they still have gowns in storage from the plethora of donations. Sara clarifies that "My volunteers–a core group of Sylvania church-goers who sew for us–are our real heroes. They are the real superstars, and each gown is so unique and beautiful–like a snowflake."
Sara concludes, "Grief looks different for everybody. For me, it was really important that my friends and family use his name and acknowledge that he is real. I have four kids, and only three of them are here. It's important that Gabriel is not forgotten…that I can talk about him."
When Sara isn't volunteering with Gabriel's Gowns, the nonprofit she founded, she is working as the executive director of The American Heart Association and raising her three beautiful children who are here, Leah (10), JJ (6), and Nicholas (4).
What's your favorite activity to do with your family? Anything where we don't have technology with us–a walk outside, the playground, out to dinner.
Best holiday memory from when you were a kid? As a kid, if you take presents out of the whole thing, 4th of July is my favorite. We'd go to my grandparents' cottage in upstate NY on the 3rd, and all of my family got together and stayed the night.
What's your go-to activity when you have a few minutes to yourself? Besides scrolling Instagram? I enjoy reading–anything from memoirs of celebrities to books only moms can look at!
Describe your life in five words or less. Wouldn't want it any other way.
What is your favorite Toledo hangout? I really like going downtown in the summertime with my friends–The Heights, the movies at Promenade Park, or that little bar at Imagination Station with great views of the water.
Describe Toledo in a sentence? Toledo was only supposed to be a two year stop, and that was 12 years ago. Toledo will suck you in…and there's nowhere else I'd rather be raising my family.

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — Baltimore City is suing the Trump administration to prevent a federal regulation that they allege will restrict access to abortions for low-income people.
The City filed a motion for a preliminary injunction to prevent a federal regulation from taking effect in May that would "severely restrict access to reproductive health care for low-income people,"
Title X clinics in the City currently serve over 16,000 patients each year in family planning, cancer screening and other preventative health services.
In the lawsuit filed last Friday, Baltimore alleges the rule violates several federal statutes- including provisions of the Affordable Care Act, Title X itself, the Administrative Procedures Act, and the Religious Freedom and Restoration Act—and is "an unconstitutional infringement of the rights to free speech, sex equality, and to access abortion,"
The City said it would lose its $1.4 million Title X funding for reproductive health services at the same time that other providers close and patients lose access to services.
"I commend our Health and Law Departments for working together to protect our residents' health and rights," said ex officio Mayor Bernard C. "Jack" Young. "Safeguarding our citizens' access to essential care is paramount. This is the Baltimore City government I am proud to lead."

The city just gave away 40 million for Holly book deal. let's sue the authors of that deal…….
Then they turn around and give it to the ILLEGAL ALIENS and the ones to lazy to work looking for that free ride and when they need more money they just dig deeper into us the poor hard working JOE"S pockets to support them! I'm tired of handing out my hard earned money. DEMOCRATS LEAVE MY PAYCHECK ALONE!!

We recently transitioned from the "traditional" Support Center Client to the SSA. We had looked at it a few years ago but at the time it was missing a feature that we used; the ability to kick off a snoozed action prior to the snooze timer expiring. That function is now available.
I understand that the SSA is the direction HCL is heading, but it still is not clear on which Action options are expected to work in SSA.
For example:
If the long game is to deprecate the Support Center and only have SSA, then I suppose this is just a transitioning phase. But if both will remain, then the Take Action tabs should indicate functionality between the two. For example, replace the Offer tab with SSA and have features there that are only applicable to SSA.
I've reported three bugs in the SSA after using it for a very short time (HCL Case: CS0019907):
Thanks for the feedback ! the plan is to deprecate the Client UI, is that what you mean by Support Center ?, with SSA. Therefore feedback like this will help us achieve that goal.
Yes, I do mean the Client UI (Support Center is displayed when you hover over it, so that's what I called it).
Glad to hear it is headed that way. I understand that some functionality that was available in the Client UI won't be in SSA, but hopefully nothing of too importance.
If you don't mind I may want to have some off-line chat about your use of "Support Center" so we make sure we cover the major use cases before we could deprecate it in favor of SSA.
Let me know,
To add… If I had a priority feature that has been lost in SSA, it would be the count down to reboot. We allow users 10 minutes to reboot after patching. This is only displayed as the current date in SSA.
Thanks for sharing.
What would a time line be on correct this, as this is pretty poor. The Post-Action tab is totally ignored. Even though we have a Restart option selected, the pop-up doesn't even offer an option to Reboot. They are simply presented with this:
Strange. That message is shown when the action completes but you should also see the messages for the post-action if you selected those. Maybe open a case and have support look at it ?
I'll see if I can add it to the case I already have open for the other issues: (HCL Case: CS0019907)
There seems to be an awful lot of issues with the SSA that would have been identified on even some basic testing. I would be happy to speak with an L3 person on the phone and just go over this all. Maybe something is being missed somewhere.
FYI - we did some tests on our personal environments but could not reproduce your issue.
Tell me what you need and I'll provide. I tested this with a single fixlet and a baseline; same result for both. We are using a preset with the following configured:
Messages tab:
Post-Action tab:
We did test with the setting as yours and in our environment [SSA 3.0.2 (latest) and platform 9.5.11] it works. So I suggest to add this to the existing case and do a troubleshooting session with support.
Yes. I'm using SSA 3.02 and 9.5.12. Note that I'm not configuring anything in the Offer tab of the action. We also used to use the Client UI, so if regkey setting for that would throw off these results, that would be helpful to know.
Yes, and that is what the support team should help you with by troubleshooting the issue you are experiencing.
I often think I'm going crazy because I knew that I saw the restart in earlier testing. So I tested on Win7 and get what would be expected. I'll try again on some Win10 OS's and see what's going on.
UPDATE: I figured out the "bug" (if you're able to confirm that would be helpful). The issue is not with the OS but rather in keeping the SSA open. In other words, if I click GET and keep the SSA full GUI open, the reboot message appears (along with the Completed message). If I click GET and close the SSA, I only get the Completed message. I'll update the ticket.
Thanks for this additional input and test. We'll do a test and try to confirm/deny the behavior you are observing.
We (thanks @lgimondo ! ) run few more tests and found the combination that generates the wrong behavior, so this is a bug. The wrong behavior is generated only if the combination is "pre message + running message + post message" AND "on Win7", on Window 10 it works fine in our tests.
Thanks a lot for the time you dedicated to nail this down ad we'll appreciate if you could add this comment to the case you have open.
I can add it to the case but it is not working fine on Windows 10. If I close the SSA GUI I do not get the message to reboot.
UPDATE: So I did confirm with Win10 at least that when I uncheck "Display message while running action" in my preset, leaving everything else, I do see the reboot pop-up even when the SSA GUI is closed.
you are right, the issue occurs also on Win10. The scenario is :
pre message + running message + post message and close SSA gui after having pressed Get button on the Required tile.
thanks for finding this.
UPDATE: Post Action popup is shown after 1 hour instead of after action completion

Gold Medal Presented By Mayor Of Gateshead
Wed, 12/07/2000 - 01:00
A team of students struck gold at the recent Gateshead Summer Flower Show, when they won the Gold Medal for the Best Horticultural College Exhibit.
The grounds of Gateshead Central Nursery at Lobley Hill were transformed for the 20th annual event, which is one of the biggest flower shows in the UK. Around 150 traders had come from all over the country to sell everything from delicate craftwork to garden implements and more than 600 amateur exhibitors competed in categories ranging from garden vegetables to exotic floral art displays.
The students' stunning five-meter by five-meter garden including a miniature golf course, leek trench, raised seasonal bedding display, floral arch, patio area and water feature caught the judges' eye. Mr Beckwith, who has been involved in all except two of the shows since the event was launched in 1991, added: "It was exceptional and in my opinion is the best education exhibit we have ever had."
The Mayor and Mayoress were taken on a full tour of East Durham College's Houghall Campus and given a history lesson on the land and surroundings before the prize giving ceremony.
The Mayor, Councillor Michael Hood said: "I have come down to Houghall College today, not because I was invited, in fact, I invited myself while judging at the Gateshead Flower Show two weeks ago. I was so impressed with the beautiful display these young men put together, I wanted to come down and reward the participants with their awards in person. What a fantastic achievement!
"Thank you very much for having us, it's been a pleasure. I have thoroughly enjoyed myself, learning about the interesting history of Houghall." Turning to look at Stuart Wesselby, Principal and Chief Executive Officer at the college, Councillor Michael Hood said: "you have some amazing staff here".
Stuart Commented "Well done, this is a great achievement and you are a credit to this college. I would like to take this opportunity to tell people that Houghall College is very much on the map and winning prestigious awards like this one".
The winning team was made up of seven Work Based Learning Apprentices from the College who are completing the Level 2 Diploma in Horticulture and one from the Level 2 Diploma in Greenkeeping.
The winning team were Christopher Raine, 16, from Sherburn Village Durham, Graig McCormick, 17, from Ferryhill, Jordan Patterson, 17, from Tow Law, Adam Birks, 18, from Gilesgate Durham, Liam Anthony, 19, from Gilesgate Durham, Paul Watson, 18, from Ushaw Moor Durham, Kallum Anderson, 19, from Bishop Auckland and Daniel Johnson, 17, from Plawsworth Durham.
The students worked exceptionally hard to build the garden in just three days. Alan McManus, a Horticultural Tutor/Assessor at East Durham College said: "The students showed professionalism beyond their years; I couldn't believe that learners of that age could build a garden of such a high standard, they were a credit to the College.
Learner Christopher Raine commented: "It was a great experience. I really enjoyed building the garden from scratch and it was great to see it finished in 3 days. I got the chance to build the raised beds, plant some bedding, plant the leeks and lay the turf for the golf green. All of the lads were really chuffed that we got a gold medal."
Upwards of 30,000 people visited the Gateshead Summer Flower Show three-day event which was held from 30th July to 1st August 2010.

The United States authorities' inaction
Bob Miller posted a topic in Moral & Ethical IssuesU.S. authorities continue to be inactive, despite the calls for tightening control over firearms. In other countries, the authorities take drastic measures for several week, but what about us? Nothing.. The New York Times believes that the US is already used to the news of executions in schools, churches, etc. But why should civilians die because of the legality of weapons and look around on the street fearing their own death? And D. Trump only expresses his condolences!

Nano Humming Bird Takes Flight
Bird watching enthusiasts could soon be very confused and even think they have spotted a new species of hummingbird. Unfortunately for the bird lovers, there is a good chance that it might only be the Nano Hummingbird that has been developed, tested and announced to be in full working order. The Nano Hummingbird is a remarkable achievement in the aviation industry and could be a vital tool for the government to use. It is also quite astounding how so much technology can be fitted into a vehicle that is a mere 6.5 inches.
The Nano Hummingbird has been AeroVironment's project since 2006, working on the new device for the Pentagon's research department, DARPA. The release of the completed Nano Hummingbird was a landmark moment, as the craft, which looks exactly like a hummingbird and is a mere two thirds of an ounce (19 grams) in weight, maneuvered by remote control through doorways and executed perfect hovering and forward flight with its two flapping wings used for propulsion. A sixteen centimeter wingspan also allows the craft to look almost exactly like its living counterpart. The Nano Hummingbird is also able to reach speeds of eleven miles per hour, which is the average flight speed of a living hummingbird.
At the start of the project hundreds of different wing designs were considered for the drone after eventually settling on the current wing design. Vast improvements have also come in time, with its first test flight almost two years ago, only allowing the drone to remain in the air for twenty seconds, which has now increased to eleven minutes. And there is also one more specification to the Nano Hummingbird, which is that it has a built-in camera and can be used for surveillance or even spying missions.
Steven Gitlin, Vice President of AeroVironment, commented that the future of the Nano Hummingbird is uncertain. They have delivered the product that was commissioned, and if any further work or upgrades are to be done, it is the decision of the Defense Department. Defense expert, Peter Singer, commented on the new technology saying: "You can use these things anywhere, put them anyplace, and the target will never even know they're being watched." A statement that is very true when it comes to the Nano Hummingbird and its close resemblance to nature's own hummingbird.

MP Garnett Genuis
Conservative Party | Sherwood Park - Fort Saskatchewan, AB
CLC rating: Pro-life
The one blemish on his voting record actually took place at the Conservative Party's 2018 National Policy Convention in Halifax where Genuis voted against a "Preborn Child" policy resolution submitted by grassroots members. The policy resolution, if passed, would have replaced a problematic pro-abortion statement in the CPC's policy declaration with a strongly-worded policy in favour of the rights of the preborn child.
In another bizarre moment during the same convention, Genuis criticized an excellent policy resolution which stated explicitly that palliative care should never include euthanasia.
In February 2020, Garnett continued demonstrating a socially-liberal streak by attacking a pro-family Leadership candidate, Richard Decarie, who had defended traditional marriage and the natural family. He also penned a column in the National Post in which he argued, quite illogically, that the Conservative Party of Canada could support homosexual "marriage" and somehow, still be considered a "pro-family party".
Another indicator of Genuis' drift towards the liberal left was the fact that he endorsed the pro-abortion, pro-transgender ideology, pro-gay pride marching MP, Erin O'Toole, during the 2020 CPC Leadership race, even though there were four pro-life, prospective leadership candidates from which he could have chosen, including a sitting Conservative MP.
Note: The voting score calculation is not weighted to account for relative differences in importance of various bills or issues. Here is Garnett Genuis's voting record relating to life and family issues:
|Votes, Surveys and Policy Decision
|Amendment to protect freedom of conscience for doctors, nurses, pharmacists and healthcare institutions to refuse to participate in euthanasia, either directly or indirectly
Conservative MP Michael Cooper proposed this amendment to the Liberal government's pro-euthanasia Bill C-14, so as to protect the freedoms of conscience and religion for doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and other healthcare workers and institutions to refuse to participate in euthanasia or assisted suicide, either directly by committing the murder, or indirectly by referring the patient to be killed by someone else. Tragically, the common sense amendment was defeated by a vote of 97 Yeas to 222 Nays. Basically, almost all Conservatives voted well, and virtually all Liberals, NDP and Bloc MPs voted to crush freedom of conscience. [May 30, 2016, Vote No. 72]
|Bill C14 - 3rd reading of Liberal gvmt bill to legalize euthanasia and assisted suicide
This horrible Bill, introduced on April 14, 2016 by Justin Trudeau's Liberal Justice Minister Jody Wilson-Raybould, would institute a killing regime in Canada under which doctors, nurses and even average people assigned by a doctor, will be permitted to kill their patients. The bill uses an innocuous-sounding phrase - medical assistance in dying - to hide the ugly reality of a state-sponsored killing apparatus that would allow most ordinary Canadians to participate in causing the death of their fellow citizens. This reckless bill will lead to wide open euthanasia-on-demand, just as they have in the Netherlands and Belgium where child euthanasia and the killing of depressed persons is permitted. [Passed May 31, 2016 by a vote of 186 Ayes to 137 Nays]
|Bill C225 - 2nd reading of 'Cassie & Molly's Law' bill, which would amend the Criminal Code to make it a separate offence to kill or injure a preborn child while committing violent crime against a woman while knowing she is pregnant. It would also add stiff minimum sentences if the unborn child is killed or injured.
This excellent Bill, introduced on February 23, 2016 by Conservative MP Cathay Wagantall, and co-sponsored by Conservative MP Rachael Harder, would bridge a terrible gap in Canada's criminal justice system by increasing respect for the dignity and intrinsic worth of preborn children. [Defeated October 19, 2016 by a vote of 76 Ayes to 209 Nays]
|Bill C14 - 4th reading of a bill to legalize euthanasia and assisted suicide (after it was amended by the Senate)
The passage of this monstrous Bill, introduced on April 14, 2016 by Liberal Justice Minister Jody Wilson-Raybould, institutes a killing regime in Canada under which government-approved conditions have been established for putting citizens to death. The innocuous-sounding phrase "medical assistance in dying" has been employed to hide the reality of a remarkably broad state-sponsored killing apparatus that now allows most ordinary Canadians to participate in causing the death of some of C-14's victims. This carefully-constructed, euthemistic phrase "medical assistance in dying" indicates only that medication is to be involved in the actual killing; it does not indicate that a doctor or a nurse must be present to oversee that actual administration of the lethal medication in all cases. Once dispensed, deadly medication can be adminstered by "any person" of the age of majority. Thus, in some circumstances, Bill C-14 goes beyond what the now-obsolete phrase "doctor-assited suicide" envisaged; now, there is not even a requirement for a healthcare professional to witness every euthanasia killing that takes place. [Vote June 16, 2016 - passed 190 to 108]
|Bill C16 - 2nd reading of a Bill to amends the Canadian Human Rights Act to add "gender identity" and "gender expression" to the list of prohibited grounds of discrimination.
This totalitarian Bill, introduced by Liberal Justice Minister Jody Wilson-Raybould on May 17, 2016, would invent, in law, a new breed of human person out of those suffering from Gender Identity Disorder, and threatens to punish those who refuse to affirm transexualized alter-egos, using the state's dragnet of "hate propaganda". [Passed October 18, 2016 by a vote of 248 Ayes to 40 Nays]
|Bill C45 - 2nd reading of a bill to legalize the possession and recreational use of cannabis (commonly known as marijuana).
Dubbed the Cannabis Act, this irresponsible bill was introduced on April 13, 2017 by Liberal Justice Minister Jody Wilson-Raybould. Though purportedly introduced to help keep marijuana out of the hands of children, Bill C45 would actaully have the opposite effect. The bill would not only legalize the possession of up to 30 grams of cannabis by individuals 18 years of age and over for purely recreational use, but it would also remove any criminal penalties for children aged 12 to 17 who possess up to five grams of marijuana, and would further allow people to freely grow marijuana in their own homes, even if children are present. This would make marijuana more accessible than ever before to children from the hands of possessing adults, and the dramatically increased access and societal acceptance of open marijuana use would excite the appeal and desirability of this dangerous, mind-impairing gateway drug among children and youth. [Vote June 8, 2017 - passed 200 to 76]
|Bill C45 - 3rd reading of a bill to legalize the possession and recreational use of cannabis (commonly known as marijuana).
Dubbed the Cannabis Act, this irresponsible bill was introduced on April 13, 2017 by Liberal Justice Minister Jody Wilson-Raybould. Though purportedly introduced to help keep marijuana out of the hands of children, Bill C45 would actaully have the opposite effect.

This would make marijuana more accessible than ever before to children from the hands of possessing adults, and the dramatically increased access and societal acceptance of open marijuana use would excite the appeal and desirability of this dangerous, mind-impairing gateway drug among children and youth. [Vote Nov. 27, 2017 - passed 200 to 82]
|Absent or abstained
|Conservative Motion (Vote #459) to exempt some (but not all) employers from having to sign an attestation in support of Justin Trudeau's personal, Liberal social values, as a pre-condition to access federal funding to hire students via the Canada Summer Jobs Program. The motion sought to exempt organizations that engage in activities such as feeding the homeless and helping refugees from have to affirm their agreement with Justin Trudeau's Liberal values.
This was a clever trap to get Liberals on record voting to defund organizations that feed the hungry and serve refugees. As far as a political shaming exercise goes, it was effective, with all but one Liberal MP voting to not allow conscientious objection by employers (of a non-political non-activist nature) from having to pledge loyalty to abortion and transgender ideology, in exchange for federal funds. Liberal and NDP MPs voted almost unanimously against the motion, revealing just how radically devoted to in-utero child-killing they are. The shame heaped on those rabidly pro-abortion MPs is well-deserved, and so, Campaign Life Coalition has given them a negative score for this vote. All Conservative MPs who were present voted in favour of the motion. Nonetheless, CLC cannot count this a positive vote because the motion was half-hearted, cowardly, and represented a betrayal of the pro-life movement, surrendering pro-life organizations to continued Liberal tyranny. The motion does not seek to protect ALL Canadian employers from being coerced to pledge fealty to abortion and transgender ideology in exchange for government funding. Another major problem was that implicit in the motion, the Scheer Conservatives gave tacit approval for Justin Trudeau to continue his ideological discrimination against some employers. Namely, those employers who engage in pro-life "political activist work". Why should Conservatives betray front line workers in the pro-life movement to this Liberal tyranny? Why is it acceptable to violate our constitutional rights to freedom of religion and conscience? Are our rights any less important than those of other employers? It is our tax money that is being distributed too. Our conscience rights are to be respected, as are those of every other Canadian citizen. The Scheer Conservatives threw under the bus, the many front-line pro-life workers in organizations like Campaign Life Coalition, Canadian Centre for Bio-Ethical Reform and Toronto Right To Life, who sacrifice so much to save preborn human lives. This motion could have protected all Canadians, but the Conservatives chose not to protect us all from Justin Trudeau's ideological coercion. As a pro-life party Leader, Andrew Scheer could also have chosen to use this motion to advance debate on abortion and the right to life. Instead, he passed up that opportunity by carefully avoiding any mention of the word "abortion" in the motion itself, as well as in any comments made by himself or other MPs. It seems reasonable to conclude that orders were given by Scheer's office that Conservative MPs must not mention the A-word. This represents a second betrayal. For this reason, Yes votes by Conservative MPs have been scored as neutral. [Vote March 19, 2018 - defeated 207 to 93]
Here are quotes from Garnett Genuis on various life and family issues:
In a newspaper column he penned, Garnett argues that the Conservative Party of Canada should support homosexual 'marriage', and that somehow, it could still consider itself a 'pro-family party' after doing so: "Our national conversations should focus more on strengthening marriage and family than on debating definitions. Our pluralistic society obviously contains within it different concepts of what marriage and family are. And we can, in a pluralistic society, still contend that family is the cornerstone of a strong society, without prescribing a single template. We can be a pro-family party in a pluralistic society.If Conservatives want to win, then we can no longer offer a conservative economic vision without a conservative social vision." [National Post, "Stop obsessing about winning and focus on the real issues", Feb. 4, 2020]
Genuis criticizes Justin Trudeau's funding of illegal abortions overseas with Canadian tax dollars: "Okay, so organization X performs illegal abortions in certain countries, let's say. Would the Government of Canada fund organization X to do something else in that country, or would it choose not to partner with that organization as a result of the fact that they're involved in activity that's illegal in the country where it's happening?" [Parliamentary Hansard, "Foreign Affairs Committee", May 31, 2018.]
Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Garnett Genuis on 2019.
|Do you believe that life begins at conception (fertilization)?
|No response
|Do you support the conscience rights of health care professionals to refuse to do or refer for medical procedures which they oppose?
|No response
|If elected, would you vote in favour of a law to protect all unborn children from the time of conception (fertilization) onward?
|No response
|If elected, will you vote to pass laws protecting people from euthanasia and assisted-suicide, and vote to reject laws that would expand euthanasia and assisted-suicide?
|No response
|Are there any circumstances under which you believe a woman should have access to abortion? (note: Medical treatments to save the life of a mother and which result in the UNINTENDED death of her unborn child, are NOT abortions. Eg. in case of tubal pregnancy or cervical cancer)
|No response
Here are the videos available for Garnett Genuis.
Video #1 - MP Garnett Genuis equates natural marriage and family with LGBT fabrications.
In this interview, MP Garnett Genuis effectively rejects the label of social conservative and argues that being "pro-family" doesn't necessarily mean believing in natural, male-and-female marriage and family, but rather that one can be "pro-family" by merely advocating for low taxes, income splitting and adoption. Genuis also criticized a heroic pro-life, pro-family, fellow Conservative, Richard Decarie, after the latter defended traditional marriage and family.

TORONTO, ONTARIO — (Marketwired) — 11/17/17 — Changfeng Energy Inc., (TSX VENTURE: CFY) ("Changfeng" or "the Company"), an energy provider in the People–s Republic of China (–PRC–), announces that in 2017 Changfeng began a three-year plan to strategically shift its corporate focus towards sustainable energy in combination with natural gas to become an integrated energy provider in the PRC. Changfeng has always strived to provide natural gas to our customers, a cleaner alternative to coal, since the Company–s inception over 20 years ago. As the Chinese economy now moves away from fossil fuel dependency in accordance with central government guidance, Changfeng looks to sustainable energy and clean technology to complement the usage of natural gas.
Earlier this month, in the press releases "Changfeng Energy Announces Joint Venture Agreement with EDF China in Sanya, Hainan, China" and "Changfeng Energy Announces Establishment of Joint Venture Company With EDF China in Sanya, Hainan, China," Changfeng–s premier integrated smart energy project was announced. Integrated Smart Energy refers to combining the usage of multiple clean energy sources in an integrated system to generate power. Energy sources used in the system can include solar, wind, hydro, electricity, natural gas and thermal energy. Depending on the geography, weather conditions and energy supply of a given region, the energy sources used in the system will vary. Combining the use of multiple energy sources in a single system allows for the use of specific energy sources at different times depending on the energy availability and price, creating maximum efficiency in energy usage. Furthermore, the increased energy efficiency and use of sustainable energy sources is in accordance with China–s central government guidance and therefore receives strong support from local Chinese governments.
In line with this shift in strategic focus, Changfeng will look to free up monetary and human capital from existing projects that are not yet profitable and rededicate the resources to invest in integrated smart energy projects in the PRC. Natural gas will continue to be the cornerstone of Changfeng, providing the foundation necessary for the Company–s growth. The Company will explore opportunities in midstream natural gas infrastructure to diversify risk and round out Changfeng–s portfolio in the natural gas market. Changfeng will also continue to expand its downstream natural gas distribution project portfolio but looks only to invest into natural gas distribution projects that are either already or soon to be generating cash flow. In summary, the following three sectors will be Changfeng–s main business lines in the next three (3) years from 2017-2019: a) natural gas downstream distribution, including urban city pipeline gas distribution, gas refuelling stations; b) integrated smart energy system to distribute power, heat, cooling, and hot water; c) natural gas mid-stream infrastructure.
Huajun Lin, the Company–s CEO and Chairman of the Board states that, "The Chinese energy market is rapidly transforming under the guidance of the Chinese central government. Changfeng must adapt to the new market conditions early on and move to not only to survive but to thrive in the new environment. Since 2016, we began the process to IPO on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (–HKEx–). Changfeng engaged Guangfa Capital (Hong Kong) Limited as the sponsor and more recently engaged consultants to strengthen the Company–s internal controls as well as assist with corporate restructuring. The move to list on the HKEx will not only provide more liquidity for our shareholders but will also provide a new financing platform with which Changfeng can fund its aggressive growth strategy moving forward. With Changfeng–s experienced management team, dependable strategic partners and innovative corporate culture, I am confident that we will emerge as a leader in the Chinese energy market."
