Police have released two new images of vehicles wanted for questioning in Sunday's fatal hit-and-run of a 4-year-old boy in Milford, Massachusetts.
Jhonthan Loja was attending an Easter BBQ when he was killed on Water Street. His family told NBC Boston that he was inside a fenced in area playing when somehow he made it outside and onto the street. Seconds later, he was struck and killed.
Milford Police had been looking for one vehicle but on Tuesday, Chief Thomas O'Loughlin said investigators now want to talk to the drivers of a dark colored 2010 Chevy Traverse and a 2015 or 2016 gray or silver Nissan Rogue.
U.S. & World
"It's not going away. We're working 24 hours a day," said O'Loughlin. "We owe that to this child. We owe this to the family."
Both vehicles were captured on nearby surveillance. Authorities said officers have talked to two drivers of similar vehicles already and that the vehicles have been processed.
So far, no arrests have been made.
"The bottom line is, we are trying to put together exactly what took place, and it doesn't necessarily mean a crime was committed," said O'Loughlin.
While the memorial for Loja continues to grow, his family hopes that the driver who struck him comes forward.

Most traditional utensils (even kid-sized ones) are a poor match for little hands, whose fine-motor skills are still developing.
Kizingo's co-founder Kiyah and her husband lived and worked in Tanzania in 2010. As a nutritionist and mother to a little girl who was just learning to eat solid foods, Kiyah eagerly experimented with fresh local produce – much of it new to her family – and local recipes. The name Kizingo means CURVED in Swahili and honors that time of exploration and discovery.

Kizingo products were designed for little hands. The thumb depression encourages proper grip and provides stability, the short and wide handle is easy to hold and provides improved control, and the shallow bowl allows for appropriate portion size and proper lip closure.
Kiyah is a mom, a nutritionist, a scholar, a small business owner and the creator of the Kizingo Toddler Spoon.
"Hello! I'm Kiyah, co-founder of Kizingo and creator of the Kizingo Toddler Spoon. As a nutrition researcher I know how important it is to support and encourage healthy eating habits as soon as kids begin eating solid food. As a mom, however, I know just how hard that can be! I also know that most of the utensils we give kids don't work well for how they hold and use them. And because they don't work well parents often take over feeding their kids, but little ones really want to do it themselves! Inevitably, this ends up creating a mealtime battle of the wills.
I wanted to change that. My mission –Kizingo's mission – is to design and build products that promote health in families and independence in kids. Our goal is to make it easier for the healthy choice to be the easy choice. Our products are rooted in science, informed by personal experience, and manufactured in the United States using the highest quality materials. Parenting is hard enough … I want to make it a little bit easier and, maybe, a little bit tastier too!
Thanks for coming along on my journey!" – Kiyah

Constructed by Slave Labor
Looking at the photograph above you will find something built by slave labor. The Jewish people were forced to build these monuments by Africans. However, it is perfectly fine for Africans to own slaves and force them to work. In America, the only people allowed to be upset about slavery are the very same race that forced the Jew's to build these pyramids. What a bunch of hypocrites. If you read today's news, no race of people in history has been more mistreated than the black race. They sold their own race into slavery just 300 years ago, but it's everyone else's fault but theirs. This brings us to the situation with ISIS. This very hypocritical country wants to stop ISIS from tearing down monuments that are offensive to their history. Is this country not doing the same thing?
I never was a John Wayne fan, but he said some things that made a lot of sense. He was frustrated with the politicians of the 1970's. He said they bowed down to anything a certain minority race demanded in order to obtain their votes. If he were only alive to see the state of affairs today. My fellow Sons of Confederate Veteran brothers are offended when we see monuments praising Lincoln, Grant, Sherman, Sheridan, and others. Do you see any politicians removing their monuments to appease us? Absolutely not. There has never been a more mistreated race than the Native Americans. They weren't made slaves, they were simply slaughtered, their land taken, and they were treated like animals. Do monuments that offend them get removed in this country? Absolutely not, they don't have the votes to matter.
There is another race that has been more mistreated than the black race and that race happens to be the Celtic people. For those simple people of America who have no idea what a Celt is, its a person of Irish or Scottish descent. These people have been treated little better than animals throughout history. Do politicians attempt to pacify them in any way? Absolutely not. They don't organize themselves each election and vote for the person that kisses their ass the most. In the 19th Century there was no such of thing as a "Polish Joke." Back in that century, there were "Irish Jokes." It was always the dumb Irishman and the super intelligent Englishman. Now, there are Polish jokes poking fun at the people of Eastern Europe. All of that is perfectly fine as long as no one offends the people of African decent.
This brings us to a true weakling named Roy Cooper. He is obviously a democrat or he would have a little backbone, but Roy Cooper has none. There is a law in North Carolina that protects historical markers. Takiyah Thompson (African), Ngoc Loan Tran (Asian, who has no ancestors in the war), Dante Strobino (I've searched this name and his ancestors didn't serve in either army during the war, just another idiot showing up for his 15 minutes of fame), and Peter Gilbert (a Germanic name, same type people that brought Hitler to power) were arrested for violating the historic markers law. Now the governor of North Carolina should have condemned these law breakers, but he didn't. Why did he not condemn their actions? Because he wants the votes of these very idiots. I have often said that democracy is a joke. You have these lawyers who never stand up for what is right, but as my Dad has always taught me, they will slit their own mother's throats for a dollar. That is the trouble with this country. Politicians want money and to steal your money, they need your vote. The American people are just too stupid to understand this. They vote for the guy they think believes what they believe. I assure you, Roy Cooper will believe anything that gets him elected next time. Remember that when you go cast your vote and make him richer off your tax money.
In closing, I can truly say democracy has been the world's biggest failure as a government. Politicians will tell you the world is flat if you will simply cast your vote their way and let them rob you blind in the meantime. I can assure you, not one of them gives one cent for you. It's all about a dollar with these lawyers. I went through school and was taught Shakespeare. It was extremely boring, but one thing Shakespeare said that made perfect sense to me. Kill all the lawyers and make the world a better place. Truer words have never been spoken.

This past weekend, I was in the company of hundreds of other writers at Muse and the Marketplace 2019, "a three-day literary conference designed to give aspiring writers a better understanding about the craft of writing fiction and non-fiction, to prepare them for the changing world of publishing and promotion, and to create opportunities for meaningful networking." For three glorious days, I was surrounded by a diverse group of people united in their love of books and writing. So many aspiring writers, so many stories, so many reasons for writing.
The theme of the conference this year was writing during a time of upheaval (personal, political, or cultural), and the message was clear: we must not allow ourselves to be silenced by fear or opposition or hardship. Bestselling author and Pulitzer Prize finalist Luis Alberto Urrea kicked off the conference with a keynote speech that was passionate and funny and mesmerizing. He spoke openly about overcoming shame and intentionally writing about life experiences that he'd been told to keep quiet about. He encouraged writers to notice the details that make their stories uniquely their own, stories only they can tell.
In the sessions I attended over the weekend, presenters spoke about finding their voice and writing despite the risks to themselves and their families. Lawyers for the family of convicted child molester Ricky Langley did not want Alex Marzano-Lesnevich to write about him in her memoir, The Fact of a Body. She fought the federal lawsuit while she continued to write. Anuradha Bhagwati received threats and risked the ire of family members and the Marine Corp when she wrote about her experience of racism, misogyny, and sexual assault in Unbecoming: A Memoir of Disobedience. She refused to give up. Kelly Ford, author of Cottonmouths, spoke passionately about writing stories with "unlikable" female protagonists and the negative reactions of agents, publishers and readers who disapproved of characters who didn't conform to their expectations. She then handed out a list of bestselling books that have broken the rules. (Contact me if you'd like the list.)
All of these writers had stories they were burning to tell, whether or not anyone wanted to hear them. In fact, even as they were writing their stories, they knew there were people who definitely did NOT want their books to be published or read. But nevertheless, they persisted. They had a story inside them that needed to get out. They couldn't stop writing if they tried. (Though Ms. Bhagwati, speaking from experience, emphasized the importance of self-care and restorative breaks when writing about trauma.)
Despite the critics and dissenters, these writers suspected there were people out there who needed to hear what they had to say—and they were right.
To persist with your writing during difficult times, to get past all the obstacles in your way, ask yourself why you are writing what you're writing.
Why do you care? Why does your particular story or point matter to you?
If you're writing during a time of upheaval—and that includes writing while raising kids or juggling a full-time job or caring for a sick parent—and you want to be successful, then write something that's meaningful to YOU, something only you can write.

The Nashville Predators and Vancouver Canucks added some reinforcements for a playoff run, while Rick Nash�s wish for a deal didn�t come to fruition Monday as the NHL trade deadline passed without any blockbuster moves.
The Predators beefed up the offense with left wing Andrei Kostitsyn and two-way forward Paul Gaustad.
The Canucks fine-tuned their roster with three deals that added four players: checking-line center Samuel Pahlsson, rookie forward Zack Kassian, defenseman Marc-Andre Gragnani and forward Andrew Gordon.
The Predators sent a 2012 first-round draft pick to the Buffalo Sabres for Gaustad and a 2013 fourth-round selection. Kostitsyn, who will be reunited with his brother Sergei in Nashville, came from Montreal for a second-round and conditional fifth-round pick in 2013.
Columbus did make one move, sending Pahlsson to the Canucks for minor-league defenseman Taylor Ellington and two 2012 fourth-round draft picks.
The Canucks also shipped rookie center Cody Hodgson to Buffalo for Kassian in an exchange of former first-round draft choices. Rarely used defenseman Alexander Sulzer also went to the Sabres for Gragnani as part of the deal.
Vancouver�s third trade sent defenseman Sebastien Erixon to the Anaheim Ducks for Gordon.
In other moves Monday:
� The Boston Bruins acquired forward Brian Rolston and defenseman Mike Mottau from the New York Islanders for two prospects, center Yannick Riendeau and defenseman Marc Cantin, both of whom will be assigned by the Islanders to Bridgeport of the American Hockey League.
Boston also sent defenseman Steve Kampfer to the Minnesota Wild for defenseman Greg Zanon. To make space on the roster for the new acquisitions, the Bruins assigned Andrew Bodnarchuk, Carter Camper and Max Sauve to Providence of the AHL.
� The San Jose Sharks received left wing T.J. Galiardi, left wing Daniel Winnik and a 2013 seventh-round pick from the Colorado Avalanche for left wing Jamie McGinn, center Mike Sgarbossa and left wing Mike Connolly.
� The Ducks acquired right wing Dale Mitchell from the Toronto Maple Leafs for defensman Mark Fraser.

Lots of indie rock bands are naming themselves after woodland mammals these days, but Fleet Foxes actually sing about the forest. The band, from Seattle, specializes in what Gram Parsons called "cosmic American music," and its melodic country-rock recalls a host of like-minded bands, from old (Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young) to new (My Morning Jacket, Band of Horses). The songs on its recent self-titled debut album are as strangely familiar as campfire hymns, and at the Bowery Ballroom on Wednesday night a sold-out crowd sang along to almost all of them.
Both onstage and on record, Fleet Foxes place a heavy emphasis on three- and four-part harmonies, and there were moments ("Mykonos" and "Drops in the River" especially) when the band members' high, honeyed voices melded into an imperfect swell reminiscent of the kind of church choir John and Alan Lomax might have captured with their 500-pound recording machine.
Fleet Foxes opened with "Sun Giant," a slow, mostly a cappella salute to changing seasons, and the bulk of the band's songs reference the landscape in some form. "White Winter Hymnal," a short, harmony-laden portrait of a pack of children ambling through the snow, was a woozy folk song broken up by short bouts of intense unaccompanied singing. "Blue Ridge Mountains," which featured mandolin and Fender Rhodes piano, and the acoustic "Tiger Mountain Peasant Song" (which the band's lead vocalist, Robin Pecknold, performed as a solo encore) were equally stunning.
Fleet Foxes released two EPs, "Fleet Foxes" and "Sun Giant," before completing its first full-length album for Sub Pop, and success came swiftly. On Wednesday Mr. Pecknold sometimes appeared genuinely baffled by the fervency of his fans. Seated and wearing a wool hat (which he removed shortly after someone bellowed, "Nice hat!"), he murmured, "Whoa!" after a particularly boisterous burst of applause.
Despite suffering from a cold "I was prescribed cigarettes. It was a weird H.M.O.," he said before chugging from a bottle of water Mr. Pecknold, whose voice sounds like a cross between Wayne Coyne of the Flaming Lips and Brian Wilson, sang solemnly, and with purpose. You half-expected fireflies to rush out of his mouth.

There are several things involved when it comes to talking about how to deal with the loss of a relationship, whether it's a friendship, a dating relationship, or your marriage.
I'm not gonna say it's easy, or that it doesn't take that long, because neither are true. If you are invested in the person emotionally or otherwise, there are things that you will have to deal with after the relationship has ended that will be uncomfortable, and probably new to you.
I tend to see the loss of a relationship in similar terms to losing someone through death. I see relationships or marriage in the same physical terms that we see our loved ones or those close to us when they end. A relationship or a marriage was once lively and vital, in the same way that people are, but can also die out and lose their strength and vitality over time, and end.
I think the most important thing to know about how to deal with losing a relationship is that relationships do end, whether or not we had anything to do with the end of them or the downfall. It is a part of life, even if we don't want it that way and reject it when it happens to us.
It's taken me many years to really appreciate that people in our lives do come and go, and some stay longer than others. I've started to learn this as I've gotten older, which has helped me to see things in a greater perspective and not cling as tightly to people, especially when they're not emotionally available or if they're not providing what I need for a for a fulfilling relationship.
Relationships do end, and a lot of the hardship that we experience comes from the clinging in the attachment that we have had to the person or to the relationship as it was. In Buddhist terms, this is suffering, and the cessation of suffering would come from learning how to work through the difficult and painful emotions that keep you attached, to eventually learn to let go and grieve, and then heal.
Considering that idea, it's necessary to be realistic and to know that there will be some time and attention needed on your part to work through that difficult process of grief. And it is a process of grief. Just like I had mentioned earlier, losing a relationship is like losing a physical person. It is a process that needs attention and that takes time.
Usually what delays the grieving process is that we hold on in some way or another, and can't or don't want to let go of the person, the relationship, or the way things used to be when you were in a better place with the person.
A lot of the times, we're holding on to the person as they were in the past, or as the relationship was in the past. Sometimes the person, the relationship, or yourself have changed, which have created a different type of relationship that has come to an end. The loss of relationship has happened, but you haven't accepted it.
A lot of the holding on part can come from holding onto those positive memories, or to wishing or hoping that the relationship would be different in ways that you would want.
It can also mean that you're holding on waiting for the other person to change, or to shift backward into the place that they used to be when you had met them and developed the relationship originally. For that matter, this is disillusionment, and it's not seeing things as they truly are, which keeps people from not seeing things clearly as they need to be seen.
Allowing yourself the space to grieve is so important. Grief does not look the same from person to person, and even if you're expecting certain things to happen, such as following closely the stages of grief, it probably won't happen that way. It happens on it's own, and the more you're open to letting those emotions come through you and pass, the easier the process will be in the long run.
Trust your feelings, and when those difficult emotions come up, just let them come up without avoiding them, pushing them away, or over-intellectualizing them. The kinder you are to yourself and the more space you allow for those feelings to come up and work them selves through, the easier the grief process will be, even if it feels like it'll never end.
Get support, and find meaningful and positive people in your life who you can talk with and share your feelings about your relationship loss or break up. Take care of yourself, do what you can to get through the day, get the right rest and diet going, and know that grief and the letting go process does take some time. Sometimes it even takes years to get through it completely.
What I wouldn't do is get into indulging your whims with the other person by continually checking on them or wondering what they're doing. Try to not stay on social media and troll them online, or continually check their profiles to see what they're up to. It's not gonna do you any good. Stop texting them and calling them, and you'll be able to help yourself let go a little bit more easily. I know this is difficult to do, especially when the feelings are so strong at the end of her relationship, but it's important to try to take the highroad.
Dealing with the loss of a close relationship or marriage is painful, long, and can seem like an eternal rollercoaster of different emotions. The more you avoid this process, and push it away, the longer the process will stay in place and not allow you to move on and heal. Think about some of the advice above, and see if you can consider any of it if you're dealing with a loss now, or if you've had with one in the past where you haven't dealt with it. It may still be lurking somewhere in the shadows, affecting your ability to open up and have the healthy kind of relationship that you deserve.

How to Overcome Missing Signals on iPhone – Signal loss is an event where you don't get access to the network. Automatically you will not be able to call or receive phone calls, cannot text, or not even be able to surf or not, and the world will feel bland. But you don't worry, the problem is a solution.
No signal can be caused by a number of things, such as the area of residence that you live in, whether it supports the network you are using or not. Second, maybe the provider that you are using is in trouble. Or an error in your iPhone software system that needs to be updated. And the last possibility is damage to the hardware, if it's like this please take it to the Apple Service Center to inquire further.
But before your iPhone or iPad is declared damaged, there are several ways you can do to overcome lost signals on an iPhone that hopefully can help. Here's the How to Overcome Missing Signals on iPhone , which you can easily try:
How to Overcome Missing Signals on iPhone
What exactly is the cause of the iPhone signal continuously searching? and is there a solution to overcome it? Are the two questions in your mind right now? The answer is there are ways to solve this problem.
but you have to know what causes iPhone signals to continue searching, namely:
• Signals that happen to be weak from the provider at that time
• SIM card that has a problem
• iOS software that has problems
• Damage to baseband IC (hardware problem)
1. Uninstall and reinstall the card
The iPhone whose signal is continuously searching, could be the source of the problem coming from the SIM card which is already an error. Therefore there is nothing wrong for you to try removing the SIM tray on your iPhone, leave it for a while, then reinsert the SIM tray, and to make it more leverage, it never hurts to restart your iPhone after you reinsert the SIM tray. I know this method sounds really trivial, but in fact, this method often works.
2. Use another SIM card
The first way has not been successful? try using a different SIM card. Borrow your family or friend's SIM card first. And don't forget to restart your iPhone after you try to replace the card to make it more leverage. The reason why this method works, because if the location of the problem is on your SIM card, then after you try to replace it using another SIM card, your iPhone should be able to receive signals as usual.
3. Reset Network Settings
Have tried the two methods above but haven't succeeded? Hmm, the problem is not from your SIM card. But it could be from your iOS. Please try to reset your iPhone's network settings.
How to reset iPhone network settings:
• Select settings
• Select general
• Select Reset
• Then select "Reset Network Settings"
• Wait a moment, then restart your iPhone so that the results are more maximal

Configure your Oh Dear settings per website
Per website, you can configure custom settings that apply specifically to that site.
Verify text on response #
An additional feature of our uptime check, is that it can also look at the source code of the page and match for a particular string.
By default, we just check for an
HTTP/200 code, but you can extend that to match for a pre-defined string. This can be a validation string you place in HTML comments on your site, that you can use as a status indicator.
Minutes downtime before notification #
Our default is to alert you of downtime when a site has been down for 3 minutes. You'll find a detailed explanation in our uptime monitoring documentation.
You can tweak this behaviour to make it alert you sooner or later, by changing the minutes downtime before notification setting.
If you increase this to
10, the site needs to be down for 10 minutes before we alert you. If you lower it to
2, we'll notify you after 2 minutes of downtime.
You can use this setting to tweak particularly important sites, or to lower the false-positive alert rate on sites that have a bad reputation.
Broken links whitelisted urls #
Our crawler checks all pages on your site and will report broken links (timeouts, 404's, 503's, ...). Some pages on your site might be in a known-bad state, and you don't want to report on them.
In the site settings screen, you can whitelist certain URLs that we'll never notify you about.
Custom HTTP headers #
For both our uptime checks or our mixed content & broken links crawling, you can add additional headers to be included on every request. This allows you to include things like HTTP Basic Authentication, add cookies, include a default
Accept-Encoding, ...
There are a few headers you can't overwrite. These are:
In your Site settings page, you can add custom headers as key/value pairs. For instance:
|Basic zL9SQ7ivcAWwmH8yyuaGZo0Fkr==
|yourcookie=value; cookie2=value2
You can also add shared secrets to validate requests coming from Oh Dear on your backend.

This is due to Redditors (or Reddit users) notorious disdain of big, pushy brands that do not interest in interacting with the Reddit community.

Frayser White
I just want to get off a little note to you to thank you for giving us a fantastic week. I have been fishing saltwater for 20 years and several in our group have a lot of seniority over me, we all agree that this trip is on the top of our list. Everyone had a great time and many good things to say. Great fishing. fantastic accommodations. and a staff that is absolutely the best, that includes the best group of guides I have ever fished with Everyone in the group was really impressed with the guides, not a one less than AAA. Beautiful facilities and great location, I don't know what else anyone could ask for. I need to be brief, got to get ready for my trip to italy with Gail, departing Thursday to Roma. But as great as Italy is (it is Gail's favorite place on earth).
Fred W. Scott Jr.
It was a pleasure to see you again, and beat ourselves up on the foredecks, hunting Permit
Sam Monroe
you guys did a number on me and I am really having a tough time reentering. Constantly thinking of GSL, you, Robin, "Gaspar & Tomas" and others. My bucket list has at least one more time to GSL. Dianne said she loved it as well - said she would return.
Wayne Gardella
Just getting around from a crazy couple of weeks since we got back. Thanks for a great fishing experience. You run a first class operation - great service from you staff, great food, and a spotless lodge. Keep the good work and I have no double that the Grand Slam Lodge with the be "go to lodge" in the area in no time.
John Hoag
Salt Lake City, Utah
The moment our group arrived at the lodge the feeling of happiness and relaxation radiated from the entire staff. Sparking wine and appetizers were served as we checked in and we were escorted to our luxurious room and shown its many amenities. The Rooms were spacious, clean and very comfortable and all had excellent views of the bay. The Bar and Restaurant were staffed by friendly and knowledgeable people seeking to meet our every need. Food was excellent and served with artistic presentation. The grounds and beaches were well kept and clean. Fishing was excellent and all the guides were very professional. Each had their own area of expertise which provided the angler with good variety. It was a experience to stay at the Grand Slam Fishing Lodge and I would definitely return and recommend to friends and colleagues.
Colter Anderson, Global Sporting Safaris
Eugene, Oregon
I have fished all over the world working for global sporting safaris and found Grand slam lodge to be an incredibly welcoming lodge. Even a non angler would find plenty to do at grand slam. The staff is great, food excellent, and fishing Superb. The guides were extremely knowledgeable about the local Waters and I felt confident everyday that we would find fish! And that's exactly what we did! I can't wait to get back to grand slam fishing lodge! Thanks Everyone for the great trip!
Grand Slam Lodge is more than just another fishing lodge on Ascension Bay; it's a place where the rooms, food and service match some of the best lodges anywhere. Great food, beautiful rooms, and the exclusive Grand Slam are all there for the taking. I felt like the staff read my mind from the moment I arrived. Can't wait to return!
As you get close to the lodge you hope the driver slows down to indicate you have arrived because the facilities are so nice. Before you can even stretch you are greeted by the staff with a warm smile. cool glass of champagne, and tasty appetizers. It only gets better when you are escorted to your room; the only way to describe it is simply, "wow!" You'll swivel from the beautiful bed to the Jacuzzi and 52 "flat screen TV". It's great to have that thought of "this is MY room". The bathroom and shower continue this theme.
Jerry Gibbs,Fishing Editor Emeritus, Outdoor Life
South of Tulum, the shores and flats off Mexico's Sian Ka'an Reserve offer world class angling for fishing's most treasured inshore target species. But if it's amenities you want to go along with your sport, the spanking new Grand Slam Fishing Lodge is the hands-down winner. Beautiful rooms with unexpected appointments form class artwork to jacuzzi, to modern electronic entertainment equipement, fabulous food, blue-chip service, great guides and beachside indulgences for the non-fisher. Really, what else could you want?

'Becoming Jane' discussion with Anne Hathaway!
Jocelyn Guest of the New York Magazine has this very interesting article about Becoming Jane on July 17, 2007. This is the copy-and-paste content.
Jane Austen, Carrie Bradshaw, and Anne Hathaway's Fruitless Pursuit of Co-eds
Last night's Tribeca panel on Becoming Jane, the Jane Austen biopic coming out in August, resembled a twittering Austen book club more than it did your typical post-screening Q&A. The crowd of Austen fans, mostly women of a certain age in awe of the movie, didn't shy from shouting things out at star Anne Hathaway and her fellow panelists (including Masterpiece Theatre's Rebecca Eaton). Trays of white wine circulated; we think a few audience members might have had more than their fair share.
Hathaway hammed it up for the Austen lovers. When asked about her experience with Austen's novels, she responded, "When I was in college at Vassar, unsuccessfully pursuing an English major…" At which point a lady in the crowd asked, "So what was his name?"
"At Vassar," Hathaway smoothly answered, "the better question is what was her name." The crowd, who might as well have been wearing Vassar sweatshirts, laughed hysterically.
But after Austen's near-canonization in the literary firmament, was she really just a Regency-era Carrie Bradshaw? She even had a fling with a Mr. Big(g-Wither)! Eaton acknowledged the resemblance, while staking out Austen's claim to a certain un-HBO refinement. "People are saying Jane Austen's attraction is like Sex and the City. I like to think of it as Extensive Hand-Holding in the Country." —Jocelyn Guest
Thank you Jocelyn, a very nice article. By the by, I was planning to put Harris Bigg-Wither on the spot a few days ago. I think the time is coming up, especially due to the importance of Manydown Park (where Jane did dance with Tom) and the resemblance of Mr. Bigg-Wither with Mr. Wisley in Becoming Jane. Just give me a few days...

Why Repealing the Affordable Care Act Is Bad Medicine for LGBT Communities
[gdlr_notification icon="fa-flag" type="color-background" background="#6f95bd" color="#000000″]This material was published by the Center for American Progress. Kellan Baker and Laura E. Durso contributed to this report.[/gdlr_notification]
The Affordable Care Act, or ACA, has helped more than 20 million people get new health insurance coverage. Millions more are benefitting from the ACA's bans on coverage denials because of pre-existing conditions, unaffordable prices for bare-bones coverage, and discrimination in coverage and health care.
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender, or LGBT, communities have often experienced high rates of uninsurance and barriers to coverage and care, such as discrimination on the basis of gender identity and sexual orientation. A new study by the Center for American Progress, or CAP, finds that 15 percent of LGBT Americans across all income ranges are uninsured in 2017, compared to 7 percent of non-LGBT Americans.
The ACA is closing this gap for those who most need financial help to afford coverage. In 2013, before the ACA's coverage reforms came into effect, 1 in 3 LGBT people making less than $45,000 per year (34 percent) were uninsured. Just one year later, in 2014, uninsurance for this group had dropped by one-quarter to 1 in 4 (26 percent), and by 2017, CAP's study finds that it was around 1 in 5 (22 percent). Conservative proposals to repeal and replace the ACA — such as the American Health Care Act, or AHCA — would undo these gains and hurt LGBT people, their families, and their neighbors. The path to a stronger, healthier America for all lies not in depriving millions of Americans of the benefits of coverage but in protecting and expanding on the gains of the ACA.
Study methods
To conduct this study, CAP surveyed 1,864 individuals about their experiences with health insurance and health care. Among the respondents, 857 identified as lesbian, gay, bisexual, and/or transgender, while 1,007 identified as heterosexual and cisgender/nontransgender. Respondents came from all income ranges and are diverse across factors such as race, ethnicity, education, geography, disability status, and age. The survey was fielded online in English in January 2017 to coincide with the fourth open enrollment period through the health insurance marketplaces and the beginning of the first full year of federal rules that specifically protect LGBT people from discrimination in health insurance coverage and health care. The data are nationally representative and weighted according to U.S. population characteristics. All reported findings are statistically significant unless otherwise indicated.
Respondent characteristics
Overall, LGBT people are more than twice as likely to be uninsured as non-LGBT people: 15 percent of LGBT respondents are uninsured, compared to 7 percent of non-LGBT respondents. This finding aligns with recent reports that the overall uninsurance rate for all Americans is 8.6 percent. Uninsurance is highest among transgender individuals: 25 percent of transgender respondents are uninsured, compared to 8 percent of cisgender respondents. Among sexual minority respondents, bisexual individuals have a higher level of uninsurance (19 percent) than gay men (6 percent) and lesbians (4 percent). Individuals who identify as queer and asexual also have high rates of uninsurance (17 percent and 50 percent, respectively), though small sample sizes did not allow statistical testing of these coverage gaps.
Among LGBT respondents, people living in the South are significantly more likely than people living in the Northeast to not have coverage (21 percent versus 9 percent uninsured, respectively). This difference is much smaller and not statistically significant for non-LGBT respondents in these regions (11 percent versus 8 percent), suggesting that the hostile legal and social climates experienced by LGBT communities in the South—in addition to the lack of Medicaid expansion in this region—may be contributing to higher rates of uninsurance for LGBT people.
Among all respondents, African Americans are significantly more likely than white Americans to be uninsured (17 percent versus 5 percent). Latinx individuals and individuals who reported two or more racial identities also have higher rates of uninsurance (14 percent and 10 percent), though these differences are not statistically significant. Among LGBT respondents, there are no significant differences in coverage by race or ethnicity: 14 percent of white respondents, 14 percent of African Americans, 33 percent of Latinx individuals, and 3 percent of individuals who reported two or more racial identities are uninsured.
Impact of the American Health Care Act on LGBT communities
Features of the ACA, such as income-based tax credits, to help make coverage more affordable and the expansion of Medicaid provide significant benefits for lower-income communities, including LGBT people who are struggling economically. By contrast, the American Health Care Act — the new health care proposal that is up for a vote in the House of Representatives on the anniversary of the ACA's passage — would undermine these benefits by stripping coverage from 24 million people and raising costs for low-income people, seniors, and other vulnerable Americans.
Overall, LGBT people—especially transgender people, LGBT people of color, and LGBT parents—are significantly more likely than non-LGBT people to live in poverty. Among LGBT respondents in the CAP survey, 34 percent live in households earning less than $35,000 per year. Many more are in precarious financial circumstances: In general, LGBT respondents are significantly less likely than non-LGBT respondents to be confident of being able to afford regular medical costs, such as doctor visits and prescription medications (81 percent versus 90 percent); less likely to be confident of being able to afford major medical costs, such as hospitalization (72 percent versus 82 percent); and more likely to have medical bills that they cannot pay (19 percent versus 12 percent).
Insurance provides a critical shield against these concerns: Regardless of income, insured LGBT respondents are more than twice as likely to be confident they can afford regular medical costs (90 percent of the insured versus 38 percent of the uninsured) and more than three times as likely to be confident they can afford major medical costs (82 percent of the insured versus 24 percent of the uninsured).
The broadening of affordable insurance options under the ACA through both traditional and expansion Medicaid and the health insurance marketplaces is essential to the health and financial well-being of LGBT Americans. For instance, among LGBT respondents who explored their coverage options in the past year, 36 percent found they are eligible for Medicaid, and three-quarters of those who are eligible subsequently enrolled. Among all LGBT respondents, 18 percent have Medicaid coverage, and among those with incomes less than 250 percent of the federal poverty level, or FPL, the proportion rises to 40 percent.* By comparison, Medicaid covers 8 percent of all non-LGBT respondents and 22 percent of non-LGBT respondents with incomes under 250 percent of the FPL. Using the most recent estimate of the size of the LGBT population, approximately 1.8 million LGBT adults have Medicaid coverage.
Of LGBT respondents who sought coverage through a health insurance marketplace in the past year and were not eligible for Medicaid, more than half (51 percent) learned they are eligible for advance premium tax credits that make their plans more affordable. Marketplace coverage options are particularly important for same-sex couples in light of continuing discrimination by employers on the basis of sexual orientation: Although lesbian, gay, and bisexual, or LGB, and heterosexual respondents are equally likely to have coverage through their own employer (38 percent and 39 percent, respectively), LGB individuals are less than half as likely as heterosexual individuals to have access to coverage through a spouse or partner's employer (7 percent versus 18 percent).
The future of America's health
A great deal is at stake for LGBT people—and all Americans—in the current debate about the future of the Affordable Care Act. The ACA's reforms have helped expand the availability of health insurance coverage and are strengthening the links between affordable coverage and high-quality care. By contrast, the AHCA's proposal to slash Medicaid funding and cut financial assistance that helps lower-income people afford coverage has serious consequences for millions of Americans, including LGBT people and their families. The bill would prevent the uninsured from gaining coverage and cause many of those who have gained coverage under the ACA to lose it. To truly improve the health of all Americans, the nation should move forward with continuing to build on the foundation laid by the ACA rather than allowing the clock to be rolled back to the era of high costs, poor quality, and rampant uninsurance.

* Note: Precise income data to calculate the income-to-poverty ratio were not available through the current survey. In the survey data, respondents' annual household income is given in ranges—with smaller increments of $2,500 to $5,000 for lower-income respondents and larger increments of $25,000 to $50,000 for high-income respondents. To assess income relative to the FPL, the authors assigned each respondent income at the midpoint of their income range—for example, those in the range of $5,000 to $7,499 are assigned income of $6,250—and then divided midpoint income by the poverty guideline corresponding to the respondent's household size.
Study: Only 4% Gay & Bi Men Use PrEP
Only 4 percent of gay and bisexual men in the United States reported using pre-exposure prophylaxis, or PrEP; this according to a new study recently published in PLOS ONE. The study also revealed that bisexual and non-urban men were less likely than gay men to use PrEP; while visiting an LGBT clinic and searching for information online on LGBT sources were associated with PrEP use.
PrEP is a pill taken daily that reduces the likelihood of being infected with HIV by over 99 percent and is recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for those at high risk of HIV/AIDS. Currently, Truvada, manufactured by Gilead, is the only form of PrEP approved by the Food & Drug Administration.
The study used data from the Generations Study using a national probability sample of 470 male participants from three age cohorts: 18-25, 34-41, and 52-59. Researchers examined HIV testing and use, familiarity, and attitudes toward PrEP among HIV-negative gay and bisexual men in the U.S. Participants completed the survey between March, 2016 and March, 2017.
"The extremely low rate of PrEP use, while not surprising given barriers to access in various parts of the country, is disappointing," said Professor Phillip Hammack of the University of California Santa Cruz's Department of Psychology. Since it was approved for PrEP six years ago, the wholesale price for Truvada in the U.S. has risen 45 percent, with the list price for a 30-day supply close to $2,000.
Despite low usage, a majority of particpants — 60 percent — reported that they were familiar with PrEP, with the middle cohort, ages 34-41, reporting the highest familiarity at 79 percent. Attitudes toward PrEP were also positive among most men — 68 percent of all participants, with the younger cohort, ages 18-25, at 76 percent.
The study also showed that most men did not meet the CDC recommndations for annual HIV testing with more than 25 percent of men in the younger cohort, ages 18-25, and 8 percent of men over 25 never having been tested for HIV.
"I worry especially about younger men who didn't grow up with the concerns of HIV that men of older generations did," said Hammack. "The low rate of HIV testing probably reflects a degree of complacency and cultural amnesia about AIDS."
"Our findings suggest that health education efforts are not adequately reaching sizable groups of men at risk for HIV infection," says principal investigator Ilan H. Meyer of the Williams Institute at the UCLA School of Law. "It is alarming that high-risk populations of men who are sexually active with same-sex partners are not being tested or taking advantage of treatment advances to prevent the spread of HIV."
The study suggests that "efforts to educate gay and bisexual men about HIV risk and prevention need to be reinvigorated and expanded to include non-gay-identified and non-urban men".
The study was supported by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) of the National Institutes of Health.
Planned Parenthood, Black AIDS Institute Partner to Expand Comprehensive HIV Prevention Services Nationwide
Planned Parenthood announced a multi-phase pilot program to build and expand its comprehensive HIV prevention and education efforts. Gilead Sciences, Inc, a research-based biopharmaceutical company, awarded the $900,000 grant to support and expand efforts of HIV prevention and education, including the integration of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) awareness, at Planned Parenthood affiliate health centers across the country over the next 18 months. It is the first significant corporate grant of its kind awarded to Planned Parenthood, and will focus critical prevention efforts in communities hardest hit by the epidemic.
The grant work will be carried out in partnership with The Black AIDS Institute, the only national HIV/AIDS think tank in the United States focused exclusively on Black people.
"Planned Parenthood is thrilled to be launching this incredibly exciting project. Although this country has made progress toward greater health care equity, disparities in HIV rates remain a serious issue for too many people and too many communities," said Dr. Raegan McDonald-Mosley, chief medical officer at Planned Parenthood Federation of America. "Rates of new HIV cases, along with barriers to treatment and health care access, continue to more greatly impact marginalized communities. With this grant, Planned Parenthood can implement life-saving awareness and care not otherwise funded at this scale. It furthers our mission to provide all people, especially those already facing barriers to accessing quality health care, with comprehensive and cutting-edge HIV prevention methods, including PrEP".
PrEP is the medical practice of prescribing antiretroviral medication to prevent against HIV infection.
"The Black AIDS Institute is proud to partner with Planned Parenthood to expand comprehensive HIV prevention services to Black Women", Phill Wilson, President and CEO of the Black AIDS Institute. "Given the disproportionate impact HIV is having on Black women and the new tools we have at our disposal, this is the right thing to do at the right time."
The majority of the grant will directly support the efforts of Planned Parenthood affiliates to develop training and resources aimed at delivering a comprehensive program of HIV prevention, including PrEP and other methods, in health centers across the country. It will also go toward the creation of patient education materials to reach populations most at-risk for HIV, as well as capacity-building sustainable learning modules across affiliates.
"Scientific innovation has greatly improved our ability to address the HIV epidemic," said Gregg Alton, Executive Vice President, Corporate and Medical Affairs for Gilead Sciences, Inc. "Alongside that innovation, diverse programs and partnerships are helping to ensure we can reach those most in need of treatment and prevention options. Prevention strategies, including PrEP and other methods, can have a meaningful impact on public health, offering an unparalleled opportunity to avert new infections and reduce long term costs to the healthcare system."
Planned Parenthood provides high-quality, compassionate care in health centers across the country, including nearly 700,000 HIV tests each year. Planned Parenthood health centers are uniquely positioned to deliver HIV prevention services and education to disproportionately impacted communities, including Black women, Latinas, transgender people, young adults of all backgrounds, and men who have sex with men, especially people of color.
Dr. McDonald-Mosley added, "Training and resourcing more medical providers to provide HIV and PrEP education, with a particular focus on prevention in underserved communities, is a job for which Planned Parenthood is uniquely suited. For over 100 years, we've been fighting to ensure that people — no matter where they live — can access accurate, nonjudgmental preventive care and education so they can keep themselves and their families healthy."
Despite the life-saving advances in highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) for treatment and prevention, HIV remains an urgent public health crisis, especially for certain marginalized communities who face barriers to affordable, quality health care. According to a 2014 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) surveillance report, women of color, particularly Black women, are disproportionately affected by HIV, accounting for the majority of the HIV infections, women living with HIV, and HIV-related deaths among women in the U.S.
"Over 40% of people living with HIV in the U.S are Black. Nearly 50% of new HIV infections in this country are Black. and 1 in 32 black women, 1 in 16 black men, and 1 and 2 Black Gay men will be diagnosed with HIV infection in their lifetime. Yet 85% of current PrEP users are white men. What's wrong with this picture", says Leisha McKinley Beach, technical assistance consultant, Black AIDS Institute.
While awareness of antiretroviral medication as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) among men who have sex with men (MSM) has risen significantly, women at risk for HIV still face several challenges in getting the services and information they need, including structural and cultural barriers such as poverty, HIV stigma, and a relative lack of access to healthcare professionals trained to offer comprehensive HIV prevention, including PrEP and other methods.
As part of our mission to help people live healthy lives, Planned Parenthood works every day in communities across the country and with partners around the world so that everyone — no matter who they are or where they live — can access accurate, high-quality, compassionate sexual and reproductive health care.
RBJ Health Center Named Leader in LGBT Healthcare Equality
The Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation, the educational arm of the country's largest lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) civil rights organization, has named Austin/Travis County Health and Human Service's Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) Clinic at the Rebekah Baines Johnson (RBJ) Health Center as a "Leader in LGBT Healthcare Equality". The findings were part of HRC Foundation's Healthcare Equality Index 2016, a unique annual survey that encourages equal care for LGBT Americans by evaluating inclusive policies and practices related to LGBT patients, visitors and employees.
The RBJ Health Center earned top marks in meeting non-discrimination and training criteria that demonstrate its commitment to equitable, inclusive care for LGBT patients, and their families, who can face significant challenges in securing the quality health care and respect they deserve. "This recognition acknowledges our commitment to create an inclusive and welcoming environment for every patient, customer, client and employee," said Shannon Jones, Director-Austin/Travis County Health and Human Services.
The RBJ Health Center is one of a select group of 496 healthcare facilities nationwide to be named Leaders in LGBT Healthcare Equality. Facilities awarded this title meet key criteria, including patient and employee non-discrimination policies that specifically mention sexual orientation and gender identity, a guarantee of equal visitation for same-sex partners and parents and LGBT health education for key staff members.
The Healthcare Equality Index 2016 offers healthcare facilities unique and powerful resources designed to help provide equal care to a long-overlooked group of patients, as well as assistance in complying with regulatory requirements and access to high-quality staff training.

Colin Mathieson Wins Gold!!Posted by
Independence Incorporated is pretty excited to have a Canadian racing champion on staff!
Colin Mathieson just came back from Ottawa, where he won gold in the 100 and 200 meter races at the Canadian Track and Field Championships July 6-10, 2018. We sat down with him to find out a little about his journey to this race.
This was Colin's 24th Canadian Track and Field Championship meet. In it, he competed against Canada's best. Scores from this meet will be part of determining who goes to World events such as the Paralympics. With competitors such as Isaiah Christophe in the race, Colin says "I knew exactly who I had to beat".
The weather has been hot all across Canada this summer, and Ottawa was no exception. The race days were all in the 40 degree range, testing endurance.
This was Colin's first race after a nearly 2 year gap. Facing a serious health issue, he had to sit out last year, the first since 1994. "It is weird to say but I was sort of fortunate to be so sick that I was too preoccupied to miss it!"
But once back on the track, muscle memory and training kicked in. Colin started training again in January. "Once you are back on the track you know that if you just keep going, everything will work itself out", he says reassuringly. A positive that came from the experience of missing racing for so long was a recommitment to entering as many races as possible. Trips to year-round tracks are in the offing.
"The thing to remember is that for every race, you are up against people who have nearly the same equipment and nearly the same training. With everyone having the same equipment, it comes down to who can put their best race together mentally and physically on that particular day, with the conditions that you are all facing."
From the meet, Colin earned three sponsors – Cranked Energy Bars, Jackson Springs Water, and K2B Clothing Company. Others are in negotiation.
He has his eyes on Dubai for the World Championships in 2019. Independence Incorporated will definitely be cheering him on.
