Teamsters Union to Triple PAC Spending to Defeat "All GOP Candidates"
Washington, D.C. (March 12, 2003) — Inside sources reveal that former Hoffa campaign chief and Teamsters union national field director, Todd Thompson, will be tasked with tripling contributions to the Teamsters political action committee (PAC) and that the funds will be spent to defeat "all GOP candidates" in the 2004 election cycle.
This development appears to represent a shift in strategy by the union's political operatives who had been willing to support a few left-wing Republicans in the past.
In the 2002 election cycle the Teamster's PAC, known as DRIVE, spent $2.3 million on behalf of federal candidates. 86 percent of the contributions went to Democrat party candidates – even though studies have consistently shown that 40 percent of union households vote for other candidates.
"This move further demonstrates that Teamsters union officials are totally out of touch with the interests of rank-and-file workers," said Stefan Gleason, Vice President of the National Right to Work Foundation. "Despite all of James Hoffa's rhetoric about reaching out to Republicans, the reality is that Teamsters officials are nothing more than Democrat party shills."
This latest move by the union hierarchy also points up the failure of a strategy pursued by the White House political office to make core policy concessions in exchange for union political support. Despite these concessions, union officials have made ongoing attacks on Bush and other Republicans.
For example, over the past eighteen months, the White House political office has: 1) given Teamsters and Carpenters officials significant influence over selection of nominees to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB); 2) encouraged Congress not to hold hearings on legislation that would be embarrassing to union officials, such as legislation to end compulsory unionism; 3) filed arguments in the U.S. Supreme Court opposing review of a NLRB decision that gutted employee rights not to pay forced union dues spent to support objectionable union activities; 4) inserted a discriminatory union-only project labor agreement in the Alaska energy legislation; and 5) signaled its intention to release the corrupt Teamsters union from federal oversight.
"For anyone in the White House who believed they could get Big Labor bosses to play nice in the 2004 elections this is a loud wake up call," said Gleason. "The Teamsters hierarchy and other union bosses are predictably focused on defeating George W. Bush and retaking both houses of Congress."
Operating Engineer Union Hit With Federal Charges For Threatening to Get Employees Fired
El Paso, Texas (March 11, 2003) – With the help of attorneys from the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation, a worker for a federal contractor at Ft. Bliss today filed federal charges against officials of a local engineering union and his employer for illegally forcing him to pay full union dues as a job condition.
Cordev Inc. employee Richard Cabler, a non-union member, filed the unfair labor practice charges with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) against the International Union of Operating Engineers (IUOE) union Local 35 and Cordev. The union's officials illegally threatened to get him fired for refusing to pay full dues, including dues spent for politics and other activities unrelated to collective bargaining.
"In an effort to stuff their coffers, union officials are demanding that employees simply shut up and pay up," said Stefan Gleason, vice president of the National Right to Work Foundation.
In December 2002, both IUOE union officials and Cordev notified all employees at the Fort Bliss facility that they would be fired if they failed to sign a dues check-off card forcing employees in the bargaining unit to pay full dues. However, the workers never received timely notice of their right to refrain from formal union membership and pay only a reduced fee.
These threats violate the workers' rights established by the Foundation-won U.S. Supreme Court Communications Workers v. Beck decision. Under Beck and subsequent NLRB rulings, union officials must specifically inform employees of their right to refrain from formal union membership and paying any costs other than those directly related to collective bargaining.
The Cordev controversy is somewhat unique in the Lone Star State, since Texas has a highly popular Right to Work law that bans compulsory unionism. However, because Cordev's employees work on federal property under exclusive federal jurisdiction, the state's Right to Work law does not protect them.
"The abusive actions of IUOE union officials show why most Texas workers are fortunate to have the protections of a Right to Work Law," said Gleason.
National Employee Rights Advocate Calls Upon Ohio Attorney General to Oppose Union Discrimination
Columbus, Ohio (March 4, 2003) — Today, the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation sent a letter calling on Attorney General Jim Petro to file an appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court of the Ohio Supreme Court's decision striking down the state's highly popular Open Contracting Act.
Last December, in Ohio State Building & Construction Trades Council v. Cuyahoga County Board of Commissioners, the elected judges threw out the Open Contracting Act, which bans mandatory union-only contracts, or project labor agreements (PLAs), on government construction projects.
If the attorney general does not file an appeal by the deadline of March 27, union officials will be able to force workers across Ohio to submit to compulsory unionism on all state construction projects. The National Right to Work Foundation is also contacting thousands of its Ohio supporters, asking them to contact the attorney general and Governor Bob Taft.
"Union lawyers are trying to strip away any protections that workers and taxpayers have from compulsory unionism," said Foundation Vice President and Legal Director Ray LaJeunesse. "This is an opportunity for Attorney General Petro to defend Ohio's workers and taxpayers from the numerous abuses associated with union-only PLAs on government construction projects."
A PLA is a scheme that requires all contractors, whether they are unionized or not, to subject themselves and their employees to unionization in order to work on government-funded construction projects. PLAs usually require contractors to grant union officials monopoly bargaining privileges over all workers; use exclusive union hiring halls; force workers to pay dues as a condition of employment; and pay above-market prices resulting from wasteful work rules and featherbedding.
After the Ohio legislature passed the Open Contacting Act in 1999, union lawyers sued the Cuyahoga County Board of Commissioners to retain forced unionism on state construction projects. In October 1999, a trial court permanently enjoined enforcement of the law. An Ohio appellate court later reversed the lower court's decision, ruling that the National Labor Relations Act does not prohibit states from banning government-mandated discriminatory, union-only PLAs on government construction projects.
The National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation participated as an amicus curiae in support of the Open Contracting Act. Foundation attorneys argued that the state legislature has the right not to finance a form of compulsory unionism with public construction funds. Ohio's intermediate appellate court used the Foundation's arguments to uphold the law in its now reversed ruling. Foundation attorneys plan to file a brief with the U.S. Supreme Court supporting the Open Contracting Act, if Ohio's attorney general appeals.
National Right to Work Foundation Adds New Attorney to Expert Legal Team
Springfield, Va. (February 25, 2003) — The National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation announced today that it has hired Hilary Funk., a member of the Virginia State Bar and a magna cum laude graduate of Regent University School of Law.
"Hilary Funk brings to our legal aid organization a real commitment to helping employees fight back against the abuses of compulsory unionism," said Ray LaJeunesse, Legal Director of the National Right to Work Foundation.
As a staff attorney, Funk will help build on the Foundation's successful litigation record on behalf of union-abused workers. The Foundation is currently assisting thousands of workers in over 300 case around the country.
Prior to joining the Foundation Funk had served as a counsel of the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Government Reform. While attending law school, she also worked as a law clerk for the American Center for Law and Justice, and she participated in national and regional student moot court competitions. She received Regent University's Most Outstanding Law Student Award, Class of 2001.
Funk holds a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration from Point Loma Nazarene University, where she received a perfect 4.0 grade point average. She originally hails from Elkville, Ill.
Union Sued for Violating Lorain County Teacher's Religious Freedom
Cleveland, Ohio (February 20, 2003) – With the help of attorneys from the National Right to Work Foundation, a teacher of deep religious conviction filed suit against the Lorain County Joint Vocational School Teachers Association (LCTA) for refusing to honor his religious objection to supporting the union financially.
Daniel Reed, a history teacher at the Lorain County Vocational School and a member of Camden Baptist Church, objects to supporting the LCTA local union and its affiliates because they actively promote pro-abortion and pro-homosexuality positions. Foundation attorneys filed the religious discrimination suit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio Eastern Division.
"No one should be forced to support a union and social agenda that they find morally offensive," said Stefan Gleason, Vice President of the National Right to Work Foundation. "Unfortunately, this is not an isolated incident. Teachers across the country, regardless of their faith, are being shaken down to pay for this radical agenda."
On August 14, 2001, Reed asked LCTA officials to honor his protected rights as a religious objector. Since then, teacher union officials have refused to fully honor Reed's request.
Under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, union officials may not force any employee to support financially a union if doing so violates the employee's sincerely held religious beliefs. To avoid the conflict between an employee's faith and a requirement to pay fees to a union he or she believes to be immoral, the law requires union officials to accommodate the employee – most often by designating a mutually acceptable charity to accept the funds.
As part of the lawsuit, Reed wants the LCTA and its affiliates to accommodate his status as a religious objector and send all of the union fees that have been illegally confiscated since August 2001 to a mutually agreed upon charity. In addition, Reed is asking for the LCTA to notify all employees of the Lorain County Vocational School of their right to file a religious objection to joining or supporting the union.
The LCTA is an affiliate of the Ohio Education Association (OEA) and the National Education Association (NEA), two of the most powerful and politically active teacher unions in the country. Many teachers object to the unions' support for abortion, special rights for homosexuals, and other objectionable social causes. In recent months, the OEA has faced multiple findings of discrimination by the EEOC.
NLRB Orders Union to Respect Worker's Right to Know How Confiscated Dues Are Spent
Richland, Wash. (February 19, 2003) — After International Union of Operating Engineers (IUOE) Local 280 violated previous settlement agreements, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) issued an order requiring the union to stop forcing non-union employees of Fluor Daniel Hanford Inc. to pay full union-dues, including dues spent for politics.
The NLRB issued the decision in response to charges filed by attorneys with the National Right to Work Foundation on behalf of Jeanne Olsen, an employee of Fluor Daniel Hanford. Since November 1996 union officials have violated Olsen's rights by illegally seizing compulsory union dues from her without observing her due-process rights, including providing an audited statement of how forced dues are spent.
As a non-union member Olsen cannot be forced to fund non-bargaining activities, such as political activities. On October 25, 2001 Olsen, the NLRB's general counsel and IUOE Local 280 union officials entered into an agreement in which the union agreed finally to follow the law. However, union officials ignored the agreement and continued illegally to seize dues from Olsen.
The full NLRB has now approved the agreement. If IUOE Local 280 does not obey the board's order then the union will be prosecuted in federal court.
"What incredible arrogance. For years these union officials just thumbed their noses at the government's prosecutors and the employees the union claims to represent," said Stefan Gleason, Vice President of the National Right to Work Foundation. "This shows the lengths that union officials will go keep workers' mandatory union dues flowing into their coffers."
As part of the decision, the NLRB mandated the posting of a notice alerting employees of Fluor Daniel Hanford, Inc. of their right to refrain from formal union membership and payment of full union dues.
The actions of IUOE Local 280 officials violated Olsen's rights established by the U.S. Supreme Court Communications Workers v. Beck decision. Under Beck, a case that Foundation attorneys argued and won, workers may halt and reclaim forced union dues spent on politics and other activities unrelated to collective bargaining.
Union Faces Trial At Labor Agency For Threatening to Kill Dissident Workers
Orlando, Fla. (February 14, 2003) — The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) Local 835 officials face federal prosecution for illegally threatening to "kill" or otherwise harm workers who participated in efforts to toss out the union and breaking a previous settlement agreement with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).
Local 835 officials operate an exclusive union hiring hall that provides workers for the trade show, convention, and exhibition service industry in the Orlando area.
After investigating the unfair labor practice charges filed by James Zitis and Clay Wayman – who obtained free legal representation from attorneys with the National Right to Work Foundation – the NLRB investigators found that union officials had "threatened to kill employees" and "threatened employees with the loss of work opportunities and the loss of their homes and possessions" if they engaged in activity to decertify the union through an NLRB-supervised election.
In addition to naming IATSE Local 835, the NLRB complaint cites two of its top officials, Susan Wolfgang and Peter Merrifield, for their involvement in the harassment.
"The outrageous threats issued by these union officials show they have no respect for the law or employees' well being," said Stefan Gleason, Vice President of the National Right to Work Foundation.
On May 16, 2002, IATSE union officials agreed to accept an NLRB settlement agreement of some of the employees' charges, which required them to post a notice alerting workers that they only had to pay fees equal to the cost of running the hiring hall. Union officials have failed to live up to the NLRB settlement and continue forcing non-union members to pay fees as a condition of using the hiring hall's referral process without explaining how the fee was calculated. The NLRB has set the hearing date for July 21, 2003 to examine the charges against IATSE Local 835.
Even though Florida has a highly popular and effective Right to Work law that frees nonunion employees from paying membership dues to an unwanted union, IATSE union officials use their monopoly bargaining privileges to set up exclusive hiring halls. In such halls, the union decides which employees to refer for work at conventions and trade shows, and the workers are forced to pay the union to be eligible for work.
Cleveland State University Employees Hit Union With Federal Civil Rights Suit
Cleveland, Ohio (February 13, 2003) — With the help of the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation, five Cleveland State University (CSU) employees today filed a class-action lawsuit in U.S. District Court against a union and university administrators in their official capacities for violating the workers' First Amendment and due process rights by forcing them to pay full union dues, including dues spent for politics.
The five non-union employees –Ronald Walker, Ed Burkhart, Thomas Ensley, Julius Gipson, and Joseph Sirna – filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio against the Communications Workers of America (CWA) union Local 4309 and CSU administrators.
"This is a clear case of union officials trying to bully employees into subsidizing objectionable union political activities," said Stefan Gleason, Vice President of the National Right to Work Foundation. "Unfortunately, Ohioans do not have the protection of a Right to Work law, which would give employees a choice about whether a union hierarchy deserves their support."
From February 2001 to July 2002, CWA union officials illegally seized an agency fee equal to full union dues from non-union employees without providing any explanation of how the agency fee is justified. In July 2002, when CWA officials sent a letter to non-union employees claiming that the agency fee was 75% of full union dues, they failed to provide the workers with an independent audit verifying Local 4309's claims.
The actions of CWA union officials directly violate the Foundation-won Supreme Court decision in Chicago Teachers Union v. Hudson, which requires union officials to provide objecting employees an advance reduction of forced union dues used for politics and other non-bargaining activities. Under Hudson, union officials must provide audited disclosure of their books and justify expenditures made from forced union dues seized from employees who choose to refrain from union membership.
As part of their charges the workers demand an independent audit to verify the claims made by CWA officials and a return of all money that was illegally seized since February 2001, plus interest.
"Unfortunately, this is not an isolated incident. Union bosses routinely break the law to try and shake down workers to pay for their political activities," stated Gleason.
Legal Action Forces Plumbers Union to Refund Illegally Seized Funds
Cincinnati, OH (February 13, 2003) — Responding to charges filed by National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation attorneys, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has forced the Plumbers, Pipe Fitters and Mechanical Equipment Service union Local 392 to return $4,500 that it illegally seized from employees of Fluor Daniel Fernald's uranium plant in Hamilton.
Foundation attorneys originally filed the charges on behalf of seven company workers, led by Rick Wilson, after the union threatened to fire them for refusing to pay an illegal fee, which amounted to as much as $750 per worker. The Plumbers union must refund, with interest, the so-called "re-instatement fee" they illegally charged the workers as a condition of keeping their jobs.
"This type of shakedown is a common tactic used by Big Labor to keep workers' money pouring into their forced-dues coffers," said Stefan Gleason, vice president of the National Right to Work Foundation.
In addition to refunding the illegal fee, the settlement also forces union officials to post a notice alerting employees of the Hamilton plant of their right to refrain from formal union membership and the payment of full union dues. Under law, an employee may resign from formal union membership, pay a reduced fee to cover only the union's collective bargaining costs, and further challenge the veracity of the union's calculations.
The case arose after Plumbers union officials violated the workers' rights established by the U.S. Supreme Court Communications Workers v. Beck decision. Under Beck, a case that Foundation attorneys argued and won, workers may halt and reclaim forced union dues spent on politics and other activities unrelated to collective bargaining.
Electrical Workers Vote to Free Themselves from Compulsory Union Dues
Somerset, Ky. (February 3, 2003) – After union officials negotiated a contract that eliminated key employee benefits, employees of Charter Communications obtained a deauthorization election and voted to prohibit the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) union Local 369 from forcing workers to pay union dues as a job condition.
Led by Sarah Lewis, an employee of Charter Communications, the workers voted in an election supervised by National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) officials. Lewis first sought the deauthorization election after union officials announced the contract they negotiated had eliminated workers' benefits, including matching funds in the 401(k) program, sick leave, and leave for family funerals. Lewis learned of her rights, and received free legal assistance, from attorneys with the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation.
Despite an intense propaganda campaign waged by union officials seeking to scare employees and to demonize Lewis and her employer, 75 percent of the 60 eligible employees voted to strip the union hierarchy of its special privilege to compel payment of union dues.
"The employees of Charter Communications can now force the union hierarchy to be accountable to the interests of rank-and-file workers," said Stefan Gleason, Vice President of the National Right to Work Foundation. "Since workers in Kentucky do not enjoy the protections of a Right to Work law, a deauthorization election is the only way they can break the grip of compulsory unionism."
In order to hold the deauthorization election, Lewis needed to have over 30 percent of her coworkers sign a petition requesting the election. Once that occurred, Lewis had to obtain "yes" votes from an absolute majority of workers in the bargaining unit. The requirement for an absolute majority, set by the National Labor Relations Act, is more difficult for employees to achieve than the standard for certifying a union, which requires only a majority of those voting.

One show I absolutely loved when it was out and still watch the reruns is TLC's What Not To Wear! I love the process of transformation for each guest on the show and all of the helpful tips along the way. The process reminds me of the passionate entrepreneur and recognizing the leader within. Watch or listen and let's dive in!
If you're ready for your next opportunity in your career or even as an entrepreneur who has to pitch a contract, a cover letter will help you bridge your experience to your new potential company. Listen to this video for tips to get your cover letter ready for success and the next step - your interview!
And when it's a job you really want - the position that's more satisfying, leveraging all of your potential, and increasing your paycheck - the resume and cover letter can feel more like an obstacle, especially if you:
When I think of curiosity – I'm looking at it as someone who likes to learn. Someone who actively wants to find out more because they want to grow.
Deepen their practice
Deepen their knowledge
Try something new
As a leader – being curious is a big part of trying out new ideas. You are curious about what will happen. If something doesn't pan out well, you're curious as to why and trying something else to see if that creates success.
The inspiration for this post came from an experience when I was traveling home from Boston.
On the first leg of the return flight, I had a wonderful quick chat with a flight attendant. What stood out with this trip was how he engaged with those in first class. He specifically greeted each of them by name, then asked what they wanted to drink.
As I observed from my seat, it didn't seem like anything out of the ordinary, until I heard what he said. The fact that he...
Today's chat was inspired by one of my all time favorite books – The Magic of Thinking Big by Dr. David J. Schwartz.
So my parents gave me this copy when I was in high school, and I've re-read it many many times since. It's about a growth mindset. Having a mindset that says I can figure it out or I am more than capable.
If you haven't read this book, I hope you'll check it out, but in the mean time – are you thinking big enough?
Meaning – are you brainstorming and whole heartedly pursuing goals that are exciting, audacious, meaningful and scary at the same time?
Do they push you out of your comfort zone?
Another way to think big is to day dream. What would just be amazing for you if it happened?
Don't just keep these ideas in your head – write them down.
Take out a piece of paper and for 15 minutes, just brain dump everything that comes to your mind of what would be amazing to accomplish, do, have, or experience.
Showing up as the confident business leader you're meant to be is a transformation that starts on the inside, and the first step is shifting your mindset. Enroll in the free Leverage Your Potential mini course and start recognizing the leader within you today as well as receive weekly tips and encouragement to keep you going.

Scope and Content Victoria Grain Mills, Nos 155-9 West Street, Glasgow These mills were founded by Hamilton & Manson, grain millers, in 1879. The building currently existing was built in three stages, the Flemish-gabled section in West Street in 1888, the similar block in Wallace Street in 1894-5, and the corner block with tower in 1896, all designed by W F McGibbon. This shows the frontage of the mills from the west, with the 1896 block on the corner, and the gabled block of 1888, with a later linking section. The building on the right is part of a dyeworks built in 1880 for James Mills, dyer. This photograph was taken when the buildings on the west side of West Street had been demolished in preparation for the construction of the M8 urban motorway. The grain mills have survived, having been used as warehousing for many years. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.

"A US state with close ties to Chinese President Xi Jinping's alma mater directly petitioned the Chinese leader for protective clothing for its medical workers battling the coronavirus last month, leading to it receiving supplies from Sichuan province, Tsinghua University and other Chinese sources.
Jay Inslee, the governor of Washington state, wrote a personal letter to Xi on April 2 asking to "access the enormous productive capacity of China to obtain critically needed medical supplies" such as surgical masks, disposable gowns and gloves as state health authorities faced "extreme challenges" securing supplies.
Wan, whose father served as the Chinese ambassador to Morocco in the late 1980s and early 1990s, said he had been moved to act after watching the virus take hold in his home state while in China on business. Washington state, which has recorded about 19,500 coronavirus cases and 1,000 deaths, ultimately received donations of an unspecified quantity of supplies from several Chinese government and private sources following the letter appealing directly to Xi."

Congratulations -significant accomplishment
Ken_P replied to Terry Bond's topic in General DiscussionThere are two theories about that - one is that in the initial days of submarines (pre-WWI), the sanitary facilities available on board were so primitive that the submarines were called pig-boats by the sailors who didn't sail on submarines but had to smell those that did. The other one I've typically heard is that they were referred to derisively as "boats" by destroyer, cruiser, and battleship sailors because they were so small. In true submariner fashion, we adopted that, made it our own, and now call submarines "boats" to highlight the unique nature of the platform and those who serve onboard! Terry - that's a fact! I would also point out that all ships can sink once - only submarines can repeat the feat! Thanks for the kind words.

Let's see your truck & trailer
Ken_P replied to bluefishgary's topic in Garages, Trailers and TowingI have a 2004 Chevy 2500HD with the Duramax/Allison combo. Bought it used with 39k, it has 115k now. Only issues is injectors (it's an LB7) and I had to re-do the job once, because the shop I paid the first time put crappy parts in. Trailer is a 2016 Cross Trailers 24 foot enclosed trailer. Bought it brand new, two 5200 lb Torflex axles, brakes on both axles, 48" RV door on the LH side, and Ez track on the floor. Works great. It is heavier than the aluminum trailers, but it was less than half the cost of the aluminum jobs, and I wasn't willing to spend 20k to pull a 15k car!

Ken_P replied to chistech's topic in Our Cars & Restoration ProjectsTed, I've followed your work on the '34 Chevy truck, but just found this blog. Man! Amazing work, and I especially love all of your research to make it right, instead of just making it work! Beautiful car through and through, and congratulations on the many awards- I'm sure there are more to come!
Matt, glad to see you back at it! I have had days where nothing goes right, and I'm (slowly) learning that if I walk away and come back another day, things will usually go right together. Had it happen with tail light rings (after I broke a beautiful NOS one), king pins, etc. Tried to adjust my valves the other day, car still sounds like a tractor, hoping the same strategy will work again! Good luck, and we'll be watching and learning along with you.
Ed, I'll meet you in my old Packard and buy you a drink!
Matt, glad to see you back at it, and coming up with a solution! I too consider you a friend, and it's also nice to see someone else in the hobby close to my age (I'm 38, with 2 kids). Goid luck, and I'll be following!
I also had good luck with gas tank renu on a previous project.
First of all - I hear you on prior "mechanics" and "handymen"! I currently have two on my list I would consider treating the same way - the first is whatever troglodyte welded the king pin pin retaining pin on my Packard, and the second is the guy who used 3" construction screws in every electrical box I've opened up in my house! I'm sure you'll get it figured out soon. Maybe you could run wires from your new sending unit to under the dash, drive the car, and fix the gauge when snow flies again? I decided to do a few small projects 8 weeks ago - king pins and replace intake manifold. Going on waiting six weeks for the machinist that promised less than a week!

New check-ups should be introduced to assess whether a defendant facing criminal saturates is mentally fit to stand trial, the Law Commission says.
Currently two doctors, involving a psychiatrist, advise judges on a defendant's fitness before a trial.
But the commission, an non-aligned body that reviews laws in England and Wales, wants opinion from psychologists to be allowed, along with wider testing.
The The church of Justice said it would carefully consider the recommendations.
The commission rumoured existing rules to decide whether or not a defendant was mentally fit were "out of appointment, misunderstood and inconsistently applied".
'Shift in focus'
It called for a "shift in hub" from the existing tests, which it said prioritised "intellectual talent".
Tom Symonds, BBC home affairs correspondent, said the commission was concerned "too sundry defendants face criminal trials despite lacking the ability fully to look like rt, often because of poor mental health".
Defendants should attired in b be committed to a statutory entitlement to assistance to enable them to have a fair burr under the saddle, the commission said.
Judges and other legal practitioners should come by training to help identify defendants who need support, it added.
Currently, if a think decides a normal trial cannot go ahead, a so-called trial of the to be sures is held, in which a jury decides if the defendant is guilty.
However, the commission intended the prosecution in such situations should also be required to prove the defendant proposed to break the law.
It also wants judges to have the power not to hold a test of the facts at all – if it is in the interests of justice.
Last year, former Labour MP Pull rank Janner was declared unfit to stand trial over allegations of little one sexual abuse, which he had always denied.
The decision not to prosecute the viscountess – who died last month – because he had been suffering from dementia faced valuation.
'Accessible and fair'
Professor David Ormerod QC, law commissioner for criminal law and course of action, said it was "in the interests of justice" that defendants who can play a meaningful and powerful rt in their trial should have the opportunity for a full whirl.
"Our reforms would modernise the law to bring unfitness to plead into crocodile with current psychiatric thinking, making it more effective, obtainable and fair for vulnerable defendants and victims, and providing greater protection for the known."
He said it was "extraordinary" that unfitness to plead procedures were not currently close by in magistrates' and youth courts, "where some of the most vulnerable defendants in the hood justice system can be found".

Quantification and reduction of parameter uncertainty of dynamic soil characteristics.
Characterisation of shallow, horizontal, soil layers is important for the study of different problems in civil and geophyscial engineering, such as the prediction of ground borne vibrations or the calculation of site amplification. This PhD thesis addresses the determination of dynamic soil characteristics by means of the active Multichannel Analysis of Surface Waves (MASW), P-wave refraction and Seismic Cone Penetration Test (SCPT) methods.
The circle fit method, used in structural dynamics for the identification of eigenfrequencies and modal damping ratios, is introduced to determine the Rayleigh dispersion and attenuation curves during a MASW experiment. In a Nyquist plot of the frequency-wavenumber spectrum of the free field response or Green's function of the soil generated by an impulsive point load, the Rayleigh modes correspond to circles. The Rayleigh phase velocity and attenuation coefficient are derived from the angular sweep of the Green's function. Results obtained with the circle fit method are compared with results obtained with the peak picking and half-power bandwidth method.
Inversion of the Rayleigh dispersion and attenuation curves allows to determine the shear wave velocity and material damping ratio profile of a site. This inversion is often performed with a gradient based method, requiring the sensitivities of the dispersion and attenuation curves to the soil parameters. Therefore, an analytical, computationally efficient method for the determination of these sensitivities is presented for the direct stiffness method. Furthermore, these sensitivities allow to identify to which layer parameters the dispersion and attenuation curves are the most sensitive.
In order to investigate the theoretical accuracy and resolution of the MASW, P-wave refraction and SCPT method, three different cases are simulated: a horizontally layered halfspace with a regular velocity profile, a horizontally layered halfspace with a velocity inversion and a halfspace with an inclined layer. The last case allows to quantify possible model errors introduced by not taking layer inclination into account. These simulations show that the circle fit method is very efficient for the quantification and inversion of multi-modal Rayleigh dispersion and attenuation curves.
The three methods are subsequently used to determine the dynamic soil characteristics at three sites. First, a deterministic procedure is followed, during which an initial profile is refined with a local optimization algorithm, using the analytically computed sensitivities of the Rayleigh dispersion and attenuation curves. The main drawback of this method is the need for a good estimate of the soil characteristics. Furthermore, only limited information can be obtained on the uncertainty and non-uniqueness of the soil parameters, by trying different initial profiles.
Alternatively to the deterministic inversion, the soil characteristics are also determined probabilistically, combining the different experiments in a Bayesian inversion scheme. This procedure takes into account the a priori determined measurement uncertainty and a posteriori estimated model uncertainty, and allows to determine the parameter uncertainty by means of different Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. Model uncertainty is introduced due to simplifying model assumptions and the use of less exact but computationally more efficient forward models.
Thanks to the use of the Transitional MCMC method and a prior probability model of the soil parameters, it is not necessary to try different initial estimates of the soil profile, avoiding subjectivity.
The resulting soil profiles, which are sampled according to the posterior probability density function of the dynamic soil characteristics can be used to determine an ensemble of representative soil profiles which allow to asses the maximum depth for which the soil parameters can be accurately determined. An ensemble of soil profiles better predicts the transfer functions of the soil than a single best fitting soil profile. Furthermore, the set of soil profiles allows to calculate confidence intervals on the transfer functions, which show that the uncertainty can be large, especially in the high frequency range and at large distances.

More Fleischer Needle Drop – and Terrytoon Notes
I am a little bit familiar with the career of Roy Halee. He was a rich-voiced tenor, and just the right voice for the singing of Mighty Mouse.

Jim Tyer began drawing stories for the St. John comics in 1948. Unlike the other freelancing animators, Tyer wrote his own stories, which often led to strange but humorous ideas.
In the 1940s, arguably the most prominent animator from Famous Studios to freelance on funny animal comics was Jim Tyer, at the time serving as head animator/de-facto director on Popeye cartoons.
Edna Phillips who was the principal harpist in Fantasia recalled, "I was banished to the pit beneath the stage so that the rustle of my skirt against the harp couldn't be heard by the microphones."
Terrytoons' Deputy Dawg aired on television during the last years of legal segregation in the early 1960s, and Jim Crow in the South significantly shaped the program.
This is the first in a new series articles I plan to regularly post that dives an little deeper into the history of the Academy Award For Best Animated Short Subject.
Club Sandwich harks back to the silent Aesop's Fables which Paul Terry produced, in that an army of mice retaliate against Farmer Al Falfa and his cat.
Most existent versions of these cartoons were panned-and-scanned for television airings, so I took upon myself to find as many wide-format prints on film as possible – the only way to view these cartoons the proper way.
This TV cartoon – once as popular as it is now relatively obscure – is celebrated today in its vinyl record form with the full cast, consisting of one talented actor.
Paul Terry is featured in this week's film as a shining example of how the Social Security system is working. It's quite a rarity in that I don't think there are too many surviving prints.

The constant appreciation of cryptocurrencies during their few years was a striking element for everyone. From large mutual funds to private investors, they were interested in cryptocurrencies, but with a speculative rather than an ideological vision.
In the interest of the "quick money" that cryptocurrencies seem to offer, Ponzi schemes or fraud have come to the fore. From fraudulent ICOs to "cryptocurrencies" such as OneCoin to unique investment systems with very high investment shares. Fraud is a daily occurrence in the industry.
On this occasion, Tulip Research placed the magnifying glass on Kuailian, an investment program that ensures that investments are made in the purchase of MasterNodes or Master Nodes of different cryptocurrencies in order to offer investment returns to the participants.
Collected millions
Kuailian asks its "investors" to pay with ether, the cryptocurrency that is native to the Ethereum ecosystem. Thanks to the public characteristics of the blockchain, Tulip Research was able to examine the public addresses at which those responsible for this system receive the funds, and observed this at the time of the investigation. You received a total of 356,623 ethers, more than $ 84 million at the price of Ethereum at the time of this writing.
According to an update by the research team on May 31 Kuailian addresses have already accumulated more than 432,512 ETH, around $ 102 million.
Kuailian has just reached $ 100 million.
It received a total of 432,512 ETH from its investors, which corresponds to USD 101,640,320 at the current exchange rate (eth / usd).
– Tulip research (@TulipResearch) May 31, 2020
The investigation confirmed that this incoming money ends up in a central exchange (octopus). and from that moment it becomes impossible to keep track of where the money supplied by investors is going.
Million dollar return on MasterNodes
The Kuailian system, as highlighted in the study, offers two types of licenses Kuai in a "Smart pool"From MasterNodes that offer different returns: one with low risk, which gives a return of 6% per month, and one with medium risk, which contributes 17%. To participate in the scheme, you have to First pay a membership of $ 50 and then $ 100 for the license you want to purchase. Medium risk licenses can only be purchased after you have purchased 3 low risk licenses.
The $ 100 that was given to purchase the licenseWe return 1000 days after purchase. However, The rewards to be generated are sent daily to a wallet, which the investor specifies when purchasing the license.
However, investors also have the option of not asking about the daily deposit and applying compound interest to the "profits" they receive from their investment. If you choose to make a daily deposit, the return on investment for the low-risk license is 60-72%, while the medium-risk license is 180-204%. With compound interest, The profit of a low risk license after 1000 days would be 814%, while the average risk would be 28489%. To put it in numbers, the low risk would be obtained $ 814while in the middle risk group, $ 28,489.
Doubts about the MasterNodes system
In their research, they highlight that Kuailian is said to use a machine learning method tobest master knot"To be able to invest in and from the market.
However, research into cryptocurrencies that hold MasterNodes in the market and their profitability percentages have shown that the profitability percentages collected by the Kuailian team are incorrect. With their own data that they provide from Kuailian through the MN in which they invest, The team assessed that it "invested" 66.48% of the funds delivered in Dash Master Nodes.
Tulip Research mentioned that while Dash is the largest capitalized cryptocurrency with the MasterNodes, The annual ROI is 6.92% (as we have seen, the return is 6.26%)according to the prices of the currency at the time of the investigation. Given this data, research suggests To maintain the return on investment of 60-72% for the low-risk license and 180-204% for the medium-risk license, the other MNs in which they invest in Kuailian should have a return of 53.08% and 173.08 % achieve% respectively.
However, research shows that the lack of liquidity on the part of the other cryptocurrencies with which they are said to operate in the system makes it impossible to achieve these investment returns.
To get more accurate data, on Kuailian They claim to have invested 11.76% of the funds received in the CryptoVerificationCoin cryptocurrency (CVCC). Tulip Research's investigation found that the coin has a single pair on the market (CVCC / BTC) and operates on a single exchange. CoinMarketCap does not show the currency's business volume, although it does confirm a $ 6 million market cap.
At the time of the investigation, the team found that the CVCC / BTC pair order book Only 1212 coins were for sale on the entire market and at the time of writing this article was found to drop to 1197. Orders are even lower, at the time of the investigation it was found that There was only 0.76 BTC to buy the coin, our own research provided the same data.
To get a MasterNode at CVCC, you need 1000 of these coins and according to the data they collected from Tulip Research, Kuailian claims to have 115 MNto say the same thing They have 115,000 CVCC tokens, or the same to say that they have about $ 1,184,000Which is the same more than 15% of the total market capitalization of the currency.
It is also important to mention that according to the data that CoinMarketCap shows us The currency depreciated sharply in May, rising from $ 28 to $ 30 a unit to $ 11 to $ 10 it is worth today. Given the substantial percentage the currency has in the Fund's funds, this depreciation could have affected the performance of the alleged profits it will provide to investors if they have actually invested in these tokens.
The team also focused on the investigation TradePlus (TDPS), a currency that, according to Kuailian, has invested 5.82% of the total, which corresponds to 25 master nodes. Since each master node has a price of 3000 TDPS, You have approximately 75,000 coins on your balance.
Assessment of the market movements of the currency at the time when Tulip Research carried out the investigation There were 3230 coins for saleHowever, at the time of writing this article we were able to check this in the market Only 914 tokens were sold. Orders also showed a decrease, from the 2.21 bitcoins rated in the survey to the 1.17 BTC seen today. Research has shown that with these volumes it is very difficult to obtain the liquidity required to maintain the main nodes.
Inconsistencies in your legal acts
Kuailian announces that they are registered in Europe, especially in Estonia. The investigation found that according to legal data The company was registered in Tallinn on February 11 this year, the Estonian capital, at an address that corresponds to the office of a company called Prifinance, a company that offers business creation services in Estonia for 500 euros.
Likewise, the investigation shows that the National Commission of the Spanish stock market had issued a warning about Orient's Capital and Blue Empire, a company that later became Kuailian, according to Tulip Research.

Just making a short post. If there are any primary sources (or secondary sources that link to primary sources) on the reception of Hatsune Miku NT or Piapro NT, I'd love to see them. So far I only know of one NT review that I will eventually add to the software's reception section.
What's on your mind?
I most likely overreacted with this change.
So that whole "Balding Miku" edit might have made me become a little too strict when it comes to restrictions. Instead of having only registered users being allowed to edit the character pages, I changed the restriction to only administrators and content moderators.
As for the person who made the edit, they made a comment linking to various Twitter posts about "Balding Miku." I responded simply by saying that type of information is not necessarily what the page needs, and that "Balding Miku" is more of an opinion, artists have different art styles and draw hair differently, etc.
If this causes any issues please notify me. This change will most likely be temporary as this Wiki is small.
Just Updated
So we're less then a month and 1/2 away from 2020.
There is suppose to be more news coming out soon, I'm not excited and the wiki has reached a halt while we wait.
Twiddling thumbs here.
I hate to say it, I think the biggest issue for this wiki going forard is the Vocaloid fans.
They can't seem to accept that Miku's not going to be a Vocaloid going forward.
I keep saying nothing change what was, but this is now Miku and co's past.
This inability to accept that things have change, may prove to hold both wikias back.
So I'm going to write a list of articles I ay have to ask if I can transfer over, these articles aren't Vocaloid based, but rather their CFM merchandising based for the most part. To clarify what is not going to be transferred indefinitely, I'll list it here whats currently on the table;
Articles to Transfer;
*Anything related to racing Miku
*Anything related to Snow Miku
*Derivative pages, except the Derivative page itself
*Merchandise that is based on non-Vocaloid designs (a great sort ahead of us), this including Vocaloid song derivate designs (so that figurine of V
Article not to transfer;
*The pages involving the Vocaloid software such as "Hatsune Miku (Vocaloid2)", etc
*Songs currently based only on Vocaloid
*Merchandise that is based on Vocaloid designs for example Dollfie Dream.
*Current Project Diva pages (until they become soul PS song based, there is no need)
*Magical Mirai stuff that features Vocaloid stuff
If anyone can think of anything else, thats fine, but if their not listed its possible I just forgot them.
I repeat; nothing based on the Vocaloid or Vocaloid designs or vcoaloid song designs will be transferred here. If a song made in Vocaloid later gets remade in PS, then the two wikia will end up with copies of the same article, this is fine.
I've put a poll up at the front in regards to the Kagamines.
On the Vocaloid wiki, because most of the content will be repeated and because they were never sold separately they have always been bundled together. I doubt they will be released separately even now, but I've put the poll up for feed back.
Project Diva should be treated like this;
*If it has a song with Vocaloid synth usage, then continue to update the pages on the Vocaloid wiki.
*If it has a song with the PS usage, then a page should belong here.
Yes, it may prove there will be two copies of the same information on both wiki, but this is a tough one to deal with. Right now all the Project Diva games feature songs only on Vocaloid, so there isn't a rush anyway.
They don't have anything mentioning them here.
Since people have brought it up I was thinking about deleting the pages on Vocaloid wiki, there is more reasoning the pages exist here then the Vocaloid wiki. I'm trying to keep everyone on the same page on the situation with Haku and Neru, there has been some knee-jerk reactions at my proposal.
I'll say it again in regards to the pages on the Vocaloid wiki and in relationship to them needing to be here; nothing can be done fully until 2020. We don't know how the transfer to PS will impact their characters of Haku and Neru yet and for all we know, they could even end up with voicebanks of their own. If that would be the case, it would be the ultimate game change and decide once and for all the future of these characters handling on the wikis they've ended up on.
I'm debating on keeping Bueaucrat status for a little longer as there is still much to do here, its just not possible to do a lot of it yet.
Anyway, I'm thinking of removing the activity section off the front page and adding a trivia thing like on the Voclaoid wiki. Random trivias tend to be better then site activity.
Well, thats pretty much it for now.
Going over things, aside from reputation thats it. So now we're waiting for later this year when CFM gives out information.
As stated numerous times, I have attempted to add color to the infoboxes. So far I have been able to get colored text on this Wiki, I just have issues with the CSS code for the theme colors and where that should be placed. Currently I have an ongoing discussion about this on the Community Central Forum (link to my question/discussion here), and they've been extremely helpful. I attempted to follow their directions and add the color theme CSS code to the name = part of the box, or the top of the box, but all it does is break the infobox.
Other than attempting to fix this, I believe that part of my issue is not understanding the coding language. Most of my "coding" on this Wiki has been trial and error. Hopefully this can be solved on Miku's page first, and then carried on to the other pages.
So as you guys know I just threw a temp. badly constructed "Dir" template up...Yeah... Thisis what it may be like for a while, for me at least, I'm more interested in fleshing out information then I am in setting up codes and tables.
Its mostly because I'm not very good at it, but it will make do, the "DIR" uses code from other wikis and it not in its current state a permanent fixture, not does it want to be.
I did not realize that CFM was moving their VOCALOID products to their own separate engine, though I did sort of expect this when Piapro Studio initially came out. It seems as if they will still work with Yamaha on vocal synth research, which is fantastic. Now this separate WIki makes more sense.
From what I have seen online, this new synth will be the current Piapro Studio, just without the VOCALOID source code, some plug ins, etc. As for the product being "compatible with existing tools" as stated on MikuFan, does that mean it will work as a standalone + VST?
What I find interesting though is the whole "Buy the voice once, but you get upgrades!" feature that was listed. Hopefully upgrades are free? (This would be an awful excuse to buy every single Crypton voice if they improve the tone/recording quality).
Vocal Drive is just standard vocal effects, nothing new. As for cherry pie, it seems to be what Vocalistener was. The cherry pie tool is both good, and bad. Hopefully, it can be used to break down these vocal phrases within the editor, but at the same time, can be used as "cheating."
So far, based on everything I have seen, I am very excited for this program, and am wondering whether it will be worth the purchase.
Of course, I still would like to see how Yamaha's VOCALOID progresses and improves with the research being done on vocal synthesis.
I currently own VOCALOID4 and was considering purchasing VOCALOID5. If I purchase this new "Piapro Studio," I am still eligible for a possible VOCALOID6 upgrade.
Sorry. I'm excited about this. Sadly I don't have much to compare it to though since I have only worked with VOCALOID4.
P.S. I have heard that V5 was a financial disaster for Yamaha, possibly due to many factors. Will the "Cryptonloids" leaving significantly affect VOCALOID on a financial level?
So, this has been asked before a few times so I'll clarify;
*Songs made with their upcoming Piapro Software engine will be here. Songs with Vocaloid will remain on the Vocaloid wiki, as thats dedicated to Vocaloid.
*Merchadise coming out since August 31st 2019 will be added here as thats the date declared Miku is leaving.
*All further and future information on Miku and co as well as Piapro Studio. Only stuff that is to do with Vocaloid remains on that wiki.
Basically, the Vocaloid wiki will handle "the past" and this one is handling "the future".
So its:
*Past Miku and co are Vocaloids,
*Present Miku and co are not.
There are some people who don't know the definition of "Vocaloid" but as it stands... Miku *was* but isn't one and this is going to reflect here and the Vocaloid wiki, its as simple as that.
Any further questions, please ask away, I'm not the ultimate authority on this as all wikis are a community project, so things are subject to change.
If you need a cut off date for anything, its 31st of August 2019. The most major next date is going to be the release of the actually PS software in 2020.
Note; its going to take a while to establish this wiki, so its a complete sandbox "WIP" at the moment. And I can only do "x" amount each day myself.
All we can do is wait for editors and see if they decide to come here. It will help a lot.

Population pressures play less of a role in deforestation than earlier studies of Thailand found. Between 1976 and 1989, Thailand lost 28 percent ofits forest cover. To analyze how road building, population pressure,and geophysical factors affected deforestation in Thailand during that period, Cropper, Griffiths, and Mani develop a model in whichthe amount of land cleared, the number of agricultural households,and the size of the road network are jointly determined.The model assumes that the amount of land cleared reflects an equilibrium in the land market.

Deforestation arising from conversion of forest areas into agriculture is a serious problem in Malawi. This paper discusses competition for agricultural land and investigates why the poor are closely associated with forests. Furthermore, the paper examines the effects of changes in crop land use on changes in forest cover. The author notes that the government of Malawi, like many others in sub-Saharan Africa, is currently faced with the problem of poverty. Moreover, being agricultural based most poverty reduction policies are streamlined along the agricultural sector.
Library ResourceJanuary, 1997Ecuador, Latin America and the Caribbean
In the literature about macroeconomics and deforestation, it is often supposed that strong foreign exchange outflows (e.g. debt service) increase deforestation, as higher poverty augments frontier migration and natural resources are squeezed to generate export revenues. This paper analyses the opposite phenomenon, i.e. the deforestation impact of substantial foreign exchange inflows, which is analysed in the "Dutch Disease" macroeconomics literature.

The preservation, development and sustainable use of agricultural land are of vital importance to ensure longterm food security in South Africa. These principles of food security as well as an integrated, inclusive rural economy underpin the core focus areas of the National Development Plan, Vision 2030 (NDP).

A Strategic Framework for the World Bank GroupReports & ResearchTraining Resources & ToolsDecember, 2008
This strategic framework serves to guide and support the operational response of the World Bank Group (WBG) to new development challenges posed by global climate change. Unabated, climate change threatens to reverse hard-earned development gains. The poorest countries and communities will suffer the earliest and the most. Yet they depend on actions by other nations, developed and developing. While climate change is an added cost and risk to development, a well-designed and implemented global climate policy can also bring new economic opportunities to developing countries.

Land plays a vital and central role in the economic, social-cultural and political lives of both individuals and communities. Given its centrality in the socio-economic and political spheres, national goals such as economic development, poverty reduction, social and political stability are closely linked to land. Land provides the livelihood base for the bulk of the population especially in the rural areas where agriculture is the main occupation. Despite their importance, land and environment in Kenya have suffered decades of mismanagement that has led to the current state of degradation.
