Phoenix Park music festival due to take place this month 'in doubt' over ticket price issue
It was announced last month that up to 3,500 people will be allowed to attend an outdoor music festival in the Phoenix Park on June 26 under plans for several music and cultural events with crowds

A music festival due to take place at the Phoenix Park in Dublin later this month - in what would be one of the first live events with crowds since the Covid-19 pandemic began - is in doubt, according to reports.
Last month, it was announced that up to 3,500 people will be allowed to attend an outdoor music festival in the Phoenix Park on June 26 under plans for several music and cultural events with crowds.
The concert is part of the so-called test entertainment events being organised by the Department of Arts, Tourism, Culture and Arts following today's decision to further reopen society.
However, according to Dublin Live, an issue between Minister Catherine Martin's Department of Culture and event promoters. has placed the event in doubt
The issue reportedly centres around the bill allegedly presented by the promoters, which Dublin Live understands is for €670,000.

Niall Horan says songwriting can sometimes be a disaster in the studio
With just 3,500 tickets for the event going on sale, the average cost will be just under €200 per ticket to put on the show.
A source told Dublin Live: "It looks like the concert is off after the row.
"They (Department of Culture officials) didn't take it too well with the bill they were presented with.
"You'd get U2 and Coldplay together at your wedding for that price.
"The Irish music industry is very small and they're unlikely to be able to get anyone else to do it.
"The promoters have all the cards, the bands, the set-up, so they'll have to go back to them if they want this concert to go ahead."
Despite concerns over the event going ahead, the Department of Culture has insisted adamant the concert will proceed as planned.
The Iveagh Gardens in Dublin will host the inaugural post Covid-lockdown outdoor test music event with 500 people in attendance on June 10, with James Vincent McMorrow as the headline act.

Huma Abedin, longtime Hillary Clinton aide, has book deal

NEW YORK – Huma Abedin, the close aide to Hillary Clinton and estranged wife of disgraced former Rep. Anthony Weiner, has a memoir coming out this fall.
Abedin's "Both/And: A Life in Many Worlds" will be released Nov. 2, Scribner told The Associated Press on Thursday. Abedin will tell "her inspiring story, coming of age as an American Muslim, the daughter of Indian and Pakistani scholars who split their time between Saudi Arabia, the United States, and the UK," according to the publisher.
"'Both/And' grapples with family, legacy, identity, faith, marriage, and motherhood," Scribner announced. "It shares Huma Abedin's personal accounts as a longtime aide to Hillary Clinton during Mrs. Clinton's years as First Lady, U.S. Senator, a presidential candidate, Secretary of State, and Democratic Presidential Nominee, and a candid and moving reckoning of Ms. Abedin's marriage to former Congressman Anthony Weiner."
Abedin, for years an object of speculation, said in a statement that her memoir will allow her to define herself.
"For most of my life, I was viewed through the lens of others, a refraction of someone else's pronoun. 'They' as in the parents who raised me; 'she' as in the woman I worked for; and 'he' as in the man I married," Abedin said.
"Writing this book gave me the opportunity to reflect on my own life — from the nurturing family I was privileged to be born into, to working for one of the most compelling leaders of our time. This journey has led me through exhilarating milestones and devastating setbacks. I have walked both with great pride and in overwhelming shame. It is a life I am — more than anything — enormously grateful for and a story I look forward to sharing."
Abedin, 45, has known Clinton since she was a student at George Washington University, when she worked as an intern in 1996 for the then-first lady. She was an aide to Clinton during Clinton's successful run for the U.S. Senate in 2000; deputy chief of staff during Clinton's years as secretary of state in the first term of the Obama administration, 2009-2013; and a top adviser during the 2016 election, when Clinton lost in a stunning upset to Republican Donald Trump.
She currently serves as Clinton's chief of staff.
"Over the years, we've shared stories about our lives, we've shared more meals than I can count, we've celebrated together, we've mourned together," Abedin said of Clinton in an August 2016 feature about the aide in Vogue, which called her "in many ways the engine at the center of Clinton's well-run machine, crucial and yet largely out of sight."
Clinton, mother of Chelsea Clinton, has spoken of Abedin as a second daughter. And former President Bill Clinton officiated at her 2010 wedding to Weiner, then a New York congressman seen as an emerging star in the Democratic Party. But Weiner's career collapsed the following year after he acknowledged texting lewd photos of himself to several women. In 2013, he attempted a comeback by running for mayor of New York City, but his campaign was soon upended when it was revealed he continued sexting even after resigning from Congress, a scandal that unfolded on camera during the award-winning documentary "Weiner."
Weiner pleaded guilty in 2017 to charges of sending sexual materials to a minor and was sentenced to 21 months in prison. Abedin had announced their separation in 2016 and, according to her publisher, she and Weiner are finalizing their divorce. (They agreed in 2018 to settle their divorce out of court).
Abedin's marriage, and her relationship with the Clintons, led to her being caught up in the FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton's use of a private computer server for her emails while she was secretary of state — an issue through much of the 2016 campaign.
Then-FBI Director James Comey announced in July 2016 that he would not recommend any criminal charges against Clinton even as he said she had been "extremely careless." But in late October, less than two weeks before Election Day, he informed Congress that the bureau was reopening the case after emails between Clinton and Abedin were found on Weiner's computer during the probe into the former congressman's sexting. The FBI reported a week later that nothing on the laptop changed the recommendation against charges, but Clinton has called Comey's intervention — and the headlines it created — "the determining factor" in her narrow defeat to Trump.
In Clinton's 2017 memoir "What Happened," she remembered being on the campaign plane when she and Abedin learned that the FBI probe had been reopened.
"When we heard this Huma looked stricken," Clinton wrote. "Anthony had already caused so much heartache. And now this. 'This man is going to be the death of me,' (Huma) said, bursting into tears." Clinton added that it was agonizing to see Abedin "in such distress."
"Some people thought I should fire Huma or 'distance myself.' Not a chance," Clinton wrote. "I stuck by her the same way she has always stuck by me."

This is the Classification system for MRI findings in children with cerebral palsy for purpose of reporting in research, documentation by clinicians and in national registry. MRICS has been found to be reliable and simple to use. It is a qualitative system and ordinal scale is applied in the form of subcategories.
Synopsis of resource:
Neuroimaging, especially MRI is recommended as part of a workup in a case of cerebral palsy. It has been reported to be abnormal in more than 80% cases and helps in understanding the pathogenesis of this motor disorder in addition to predicting the time of neural damage during the gestational periods. This non experimental cross sectional study was carried out to develop a classification scheme for the MRI findings to develop a common language in reporting and documentation. MRICS is based on the timing of insult and the stage of brain development. It has five groups A, B,C,D & E correlated with GMFCS levels and some of the groups have subgroups based on the extent of lesion. Inter-rater reliability was found to be good. Age at which MRI was performed was flagged as an important limitation of this system with the recommendation to repeat the MRI if it is reported normal under the age of 2 years.
MRI Classification System [MRICS] is useful for uniform documentation and reporting in cerebral palsy
MRICS was designed after extensive review of literature and undertaking harmonisation exercise with other MRI classification systems used till date
MRICS is essentially a qualitative system, reliable and easy to use by clinicians and other health professionals in this field

Americans surprised at these 3 paragraphs of NY Times' Nancy Reagan obit March 7, 2016 Nancy French
As if you needed more proof that the "war on women" is, contrary to popular belief, being waged by liberals. Check out these three of the first paragraphs of the New York Times obituary of First Lady Nancy Reagan:
Mrs. Reagan helped hire and fire the political consultants who ran her husband's near-miss campaign for the Republican presidential nomination in 1976 and his successful campaign for the presidency in 1980. She played a seminal role in the 1987 ouster of the White House chief of staff, Donald T. Regan, whom Mrs. Reagan blamed for ineptness after it was disclosed that Mr. Reagan had secretly approved arms sales to Iran.
Behind the scenes, Mrs. Reagan was the prime mover in Mr. Reagan's efforts to recover from the scandal, which was known as Iran-contra because some of the proceeds from the sale had been diverted to the contras opposing the leftist government of Nicaragua. While trying to persuade her stubborn husband to apologize for the arms deal, Mrs. Reagan brought political figures into the White House, among them the Democratic power broker Robert S. Strauss, to argue her case to the president.
Mr. Reagan eventually conceded that she was right. On March 4, 1987, the president made a distanced apology for the arms sale in a nationally televised address that dramatically improved his slumping public approval ratings.
This caused Byron York to tweet:
Would not have guessed that 3 of first 7 paragraphs of NYT Nancy Reagan obit would be about Iran-contra. https://t.co/WBolghp3gY
— Byron York (@ByronYork) March 6, 2016
But perhaps the Washington Post's 3,000+ obituary was worse, because it slammed her personally:
Mrs. Reagan took Washington by storm in 1981. Even before her husband — a movie star before he became governor of California — was sworn in, she swept into town with a larger-than-life cadre of wealthy California friends and celebrities who wore sable coats, knotted traffic with their shiny white limousines and threw lavish parties the likes of which were unprecedented at inaugural festivities. At first, the public seemed to embrace what was billed as the return of style and glamour after four years of the more modest style of peanut farmer Jimmy Carter.
But the glamour soon was seen as ostentation during a steep recession. After complaining that the White House residential quarters were in disrepair, and noting that she could find no set of matching china there, Mrs. Reagan turned to affluent friends to raise funds for $800,000 in renovations and $200,000 of new china.
Although no public money was spent, these two expenditures became symbols of excess. A high-profile trip to Britain for the wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana six months into the presidency only fueled her detractors.
Critics took to calling her 'Queen Nancy,' which eventually became a popular postcard. By December 1981, a Newsweek poll reported that 61 percent of the public considered her less sympathetic than previous first ladies to the needs of the disadvantaged.
Apparently, the mainstream media though the death of Nancy Reagan was the perfect chance to slam President Reagan as "stubborn" and corrupt, and to slam Nancy as "ostentatious."

Faz parte desde abril 2016
The Navy League of the United States was founded in 1902 with the encouragement of President Theodore Roosevelt. The Navy League has provided a powerful voice for a stronger sea service to Congress and to the American people. The Navy League has grown into the foremost citizens' organization to serve, support and stand with all the sea services – the U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Coast Guard and U.S.-flag Merchant Marine.The Navy League is comprised of 40,000 civilians in more than 240 councils around the world working to support sea service members and their families. We do this through a variety of education programs that remind our fellow citizens that the United States is a maritime nation whose national economic and security interests are inextricably tied to the freedom of the seas. The Navy League has three missions: to enhance the morale of active-duty personnel and their families; inform Congress and the American public on the importance of strong sea services; and support youth through programs such as the Naval Sea Cadet Corps, Junior ROTC and Young Marines that expose young people to the values of our sea services.

During my 26 years of serving with the City of Kent police department I have experienced many things, most very positive but some that have made me cringe. I recall sharing the men's locker room because we didn't have our own and being asked to escort victims of crime to use jail facilities since we don't have public restrooms. One winter the building went three days without heat in January because water in our gas lines had frozen.
Problems with our building are not only embarrassing to this city but are safety hazards to employees and to those that visit this facility. Those things didn't bother me as a young officer but now as chief I am more determined than ever to fight for a new police facility.
I have always been a cheerleader for the city, a proud member of its work force and strong advocate for town and gown relations. Our police employees are highly educated and professional individuals that want to work at 100 percent efficiency. Working out of this dilapidated building does not evoke a sense of pride or trust with our community.
In the past we have been criticized as being closed off from the community we serve. We are working hard to change that perception and I understand that critique more now than ever.
Knowing we have deficiencies and then the community seeing our deficiencies reflects poorly on us as a city. We have inadequate parking, inadequate space in our lobby, no public restrooms, no elevator, no public phones, no community rooms and no visitors' space in our jail.
Our jail is outdated and non-compliant with state jail standards. If we shut the doors to our jail it would cripple our staffing, patrol demands and reduce response times. That is not a scenario that I want to envision or realize as the chief of this very busy and service-oriented department. I want to offer more to our community in the services that we provide instead of reducing our services. Without community support of a new facility we will be forced to reduce our services, which would diminish our impact on crime prevention and enforcement efforts.
The Kent community deserves the best protection we can provide. It deserves a facility where visitors can acquire information in a safe environment, can report crimes and meet with officers privately and can receive training in many community based efforts we would love to provide. I'm asking for a building that the community needs and deserves, safe for the employees, the public we serve and community in general.

'Major flaws' seen as state transitions to managed care
Advocate: 'Children will die' as result of 'stubborn resolve'
Peter Hancock Capitol News Illinois
Published 4:32 am CST, Sunday, February 9, 2020

An estimated 2,500 children and young adults in Illinois who had been in the custody of the state's foster care system within the past year abruptly lost their health coverage Feb. 1.
That was just one of many problems that occurred during the weekend when the state shifted some 19,000 former foster children into its privatized "managed care" health coverage system. Children's advocacy groups warned that more problems may lie ahead as the state works to move nearly 17,000 current foster children into that same system.
"These are not glitches, these are major flaws," Danielle Gomez of the Cook County Public Guardian's office told a state Senate panel. "I am not sensationalizing the issue when I say that children will die as a result of the stubborn resolve to continue moving forward."
Illinois began transitioning its Medicaid program from a traditional fee-for-service model to managed care in 2011. Under managed care, the state contracts with a number of private insurance companies and pays them a flat monthly fee for each patient they enroll.
In turn, the companies, known as managed care organizations, or MCOs, are supposed to manage those patients' care by making sure they have complete health screenings and regular checkups. MCOs also are supposed to coordinate care between the patient's primary doctor and any specialists they need.
Today, nearly all regular Medicaid recipients in Illinois are enrolled in a managed care plan. But there have been widespread reports of MCOs denying claims and delaying payments, often because their enrollment with the MCO wasn't completed correctly or the provider that a patient went to see wasn't in the MCO's network.
But two groups the state did not immediately put under managed care were current and former foster care children, a population that includes victims of abuse and neglect, many of whom have highly complex physical, mental and behavioral health issues.
State officials announced in 2017 that they intended to move those groups into managed care, but the official launch date was delayed several times. Finally, after extensive negotiations with ACLU attorneys, the state announced last month it had reached a deal: Former foster children would be shifted into managed care on Feb. 1, but current foster children would not be shifted into the new system until April 1.
Since the launch of managed care for former foster children, Gomez said, she had learned of two cases in which an MCO refused to speak with parents about a child's health condition unless the child executed a power of attorney.
"These children were 9 and 2 years old," she said.
Gomez said another parent of a 14-year-old girl tried to fill her daughter's seizure medication, but the pharmacy refused and would not offer advice about where they could go to have it filled.
"Finally, another parent attempted to get a monthly supply of feeding tubes and supplies for her child and was told by the provider that her child's care was inactive as of Saturday and that it was not an isolated instance, but that all of the foster children who receives supplies from that agency were inactive now," she said.
ACLU of Illinois attorney Heidi Dalenberg described the process of shifting current and former foster children into managed care as a "herky-jerky journey for the entire state."
"I think it's fair to say that there's been intense concerns since that time about the way that the rollout was going to proceed and whether or not children were going to continue to receive care in the way that they should when they need it from close-by practitioners, and in a way that makes it possible for their families to care for them in a comfortable way," she said. "Unfortunately, that's not how things have played out."
Both Dalenberg and Gomez urged lawmakers to halt the transition to managed care and to delay the rollout until the state is certain all the glitches have been fixed.
Kristine Herman of the Department of Healthcare and Family Services, the agency that runs the state Medicaid program, described the deactivation of 2,500 children from the system as a "glitch" in a computer program that was quickly fixed. And she said the agency is working hard, along with the Department of Children and Family Services, the state's foster care agency, to resolve other issues.
"There is nothing more important to us than getting this process right," she said. "Vulnerable children and families in Illinois deserve quality health care with coordinated services and support. And all of us at HFS are committed to providing that level of care, and we truly believe the managed care plan that we have created will accomplish that goal."
But Sen. David Koehler, a Peoria Democrat, said he was skeptical a managed care system would ever work.
"I don't doubt that all the staff and all the departments are really working hard to resolve this issue," he said. "I think that the problem probably more lies with us as policymakers. You know, we've gone into a system that I don't think is really going to work."


ROSEMÈRE, March 24, 2020 – In an effort to support and ensure the well-being of its population while complying with the Quebec government's directives to put Quebec on hold for three weeks, the Town of Rosemère is implementing new prevention measures.
Town Hall and all municipal buildings are no longer accessible to citizens (except for the ecocentre, which remains open) until further notice. Citizens who wish to contact the Town may continue to do so by phone at 450-621-3500 or by e-mail (info@ville.rosemere.qc.ca). Town employees remain mobilized, in teleworking mode, and operational. Rest assured that any urgent request or special situation will be dealt with appropriately. As previously mentioned, all activities / gatherings organized by the Town are cancelled. The playgrounds and play structures are also closed.
Given the many financial impacts of this pandemic on the revenues of Rosemerites, the Town has decided to cancel interest and penalties on unpaid tax accounts, for citizens and merchants, as of March 13 until June 1st. This decision will be reviewed according to the evolution of the situation.
Essential services maintained
In order to comply with government directives, the Mayor and the Town's senior management will ensure to maintain the following essential services:
- Public safety services (police and firefighters);
- The treatment of wastewater and drinking water;
- Garbage, recycling and green waste pick-ups;
- Essential community services to support citizens who need help;
- Any situation requiring an emergency response.
The Town will also maintain its communications with citizens so that they remain informed at all times of the evolution of the situation surrounding the Town's activities. In this regard, the Town invites Rosemerites to subscribe to its communication platforms (Facebook, Voilà!, publi-e-mail, Instagram). The Town regularly updates the COVID-19 section of its website and maintains a list of online activities for everyone: don't hesitate to consult it!
"We are aware that these are extraordinary measures, but for the moment, our main objective is to ensure the safety and health of citizens and our employees, while maintaining the Town essential services. I also reiterate the importance of following directives and staying home. I am aware that this situation is beyond anything we have experienced so far, but I am convinced that with our resilience and our good compliance with the government's instructions, we will get through this crisis together," said Rosemère Mayor Eric Westram.

A-10 Wing Replacements Depend on Budget, Air Force Says

Whether the A-10 Thunderbolt II fleet gets new wings depends on the fiscal 2018 budget, the Air Force said Thursday.
New wings for the Cold War-era ground-attack plane -- known for its iconic gun designed to shred tanks and its tough titanium armor designed to take hits and keep flying -- remain in limbo.
According to a report from the Project on Government Oversight (POGO), Todd Mathes, the civilian program element manager for Air Combat Command, recently told a room of 100 individuals involved with the program that the wing replacement "was not going to happen."
In light of the report, the Air Force said no decision is final.

"Pending approval of the FY18 appropriation, the Air Force plans to use the $103 million authorized in the FY18 [National Defense Authorization Act] to award a contract, establish a new wing production line and produce four additional A-10 wings, which is all that money funds," Air Force spokeswoman Ann Stefanek told Military.com.
"Establishing the production line will enable the Air Force to procure additional wings if the decision is made to do so in budgets beyond FY18," she said in a statement.
Stefanek added, "Statements by current ACC and Air Force leaders in support of retaining A-10 capability are a matter of record."
The service has struggled with its message on how it plans to keep the fleet flying since the aircraft's retirement was delayed until at least 2022.
Facing financial pressure, the Air Force -- driven by spending caps known as sequestration -- made multiple attempts in recent years to retire the Warthog to save an estimated $4 billion over five years and to free up maintainers for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, the stealthy fifth-generation fighter jet designed to replace the A-10 and legacy fighters.
Congress deemed the move to retire the A-10 premature and quickly pushed back.
In 2016, then-Defense Secretary Ash Carter announced the A-10 retirement would be delayed until 2022 after lawmakers complained that losing the aircraft would deny the military a "valuable and effective" close-air support aircraft.
However, fiscal 2017 budget request documents showed the Air Force still planned to remove A-10 squadrons in increments between 2018 and 2022 to make room for F-35A Lightning II squadrons coming online.
The decision once again angered enthusiasts of the plane and lawmakers, such as Arizona Republicans Sen. John McCain, a former Navy pilot, and Rep. Martha McSally, who flew A-10s during her Air Force career.
It's been back-and-forth ever since.
"From my view and my experience, if we need that capability until a proven, tested replacement comes along, nine squadrons is the absolute minimum," McSally said during a House Armed Services Committee hearing in June.
Air Force officials have said the service can commit to maintaining wings for six of its nine A-10 combat squadrons through roughly 2030.
In September, Gen. Ellen Pawlikowski, commander of Air Force Materiel Command, told Defense News that if the A-10 fleet does not receive new wings before the service life of the current wings runs out, some squadrons will begin retiring.
Pawlikowski's comments came after the head of Air Combat Command, Gen. Mike Holmes said in an interview that reducing the number of squadrons is a possibility.
Holmes "explained that we currently only have funding to replace the wings of 173 A-10s," or roughly six squadrons, ACC spokeswoman Capt. Carrie Volpe told Military.com in June.
"Gen. Holmes didn't confirm that we are indeed retiring three A-10 squadrons," Volpe said in an email at the time. "The plan for how those wings will be specifically allocated to some or all of the squadrons has not been finalized."
This is -- and has been -- the Air Force's mantra for months: If there's money, it will get done.

Jujubes Represent Sugar
Excerpt from forthcoming book 'Mixed'
September 27, 2018 Nicole Zelniker Being Mixed-Race Series, Book Excerpts, Interviews
Jae Langton is just like the rest of his family, especially in his love of musicals. The biggest difference is that Jae is South Korean, while everyone else is white. Jae's parents, Shelley and David, have walked the line for 13 years between celebrating Jae's Korean culture and letting him know he is just like them.
Jae Langton, like most 13-year-old boys, loves to antagonize his mother. Shelley Langton sighed as her son attempted to tie his socks around his feet and asked, "Can you put them on normal, please?" He put his socks on, rolling his eyes as he did.
Also like most teenage boys, Jae also does not pay much attention to politics. Even though he is Korean, he does not feel like Trump's policies will hurt him in any way.
"I'm okay during Donald Trump's presidency because of the fact that I'm from a white family and it doesn't really affect me that much," he said.
Jae was adopted from Korea as a baby in 2004 by Shelley and her husband, David, who are both white. They already had a biological daughter, Rachael, who is nine years older than Jae.
"You can see their picture up on the bookcase," Shelley said, pointing to a large photograph of Rachael, blonde and blue-eyed, holding black-haired Jae.
"That's the picture from when he came," Rachael said. "That was in the airport. I was really excited because I wanted to be an older sister really badly, so that was really cool."
Shelley, Rachael, and Jae sat in the living room together. Rachael and Shelley conversed. Jae played with his phone since his socks were no longer an option.
"I have adopted siblings, a sister and brother who are Korean," said Shelley. "When David and I got married, we talked about if we would ever adopt, and I said if we did choose to adopt, I would definitely want to adopt from Korea because I have Korean people in my family. So it was very specific."
Shelley grew up in Minnesota, where there is a large percentage of Korean adoptees in the United States. According to Eleana Kim's 2011 book Adopted Territory: Transnational Korean Adoptees and the Politics of Belonging from the Duke University Press, other states with larger populations of Korean adoptees include Idaho, Massachusetts, Montana, New York, Oregon, and Vermont.
"I actually asked if we could adopt through the same agency in Minnesota where my parents adopted from because they offer this amazing support service, but they didn't support homes in New York," said Shelley. "So they recommended the place where we did end up adopting Jae through, so I said, well, one of the things I was really concerned about and wanted to make sure we had access to was post-adoption supports, not just the getting ready."
The Langtons live in Ardsley, New York. Jae just graduated from Ardsley Middle School and will attend Ardsley High School in the fall, where Rachael graduated from in 2013.
"Do you have any other friends that are Korean?" Shelley asked Jae.
Jae shook his head. "No."
"Is there anyone else in your grade who's Korean?"
"Oh, yes," he said. He mentioned one other student, a boy in his school named Will.
"Most of your friends are white, though," said Shelley.
Jae nodded. "Yes," he said.
Jae knows one person of color that he considers to be a friend, a boy named Aaron who is Turkish, and Shelley said there are several families on their block that are Chinese or Indian. Other than that, Jae said that most of his friends at school are white.
"But you don't think about it that way, that they're white and you're Asian," said Shelley.
"No," said Jae.
In addition to the lack of diversity in the schools, Shelley said that the few Korean people from Ardsley she did know were very interested when she told them she was about to adopt Jae. When she told the Korean women working at the local nail salon she was going to adopt from Korea, Shelley said they had a lot of advice.
"They had very mixed feelings in the beginning," she said.
Rachael nodded. "They want to make sure that you're raising him right," she said.
"I mean, it must be strange to be from a culture and seeing a white family raising a kid from that culture," said Shelley. "We used to have a neighbor across the street who was Korean, and they would invite Jae to come over and play. I think there was a little bit of a sense of 'He needs to know what his heritage is.'" Often, Shelley said, Jae would come home talking about how he didn't like the Korean food his friend's family served.
Today, the rules about adopting from South Korea are even stricter than when Shelley and David adopted Jae. Only couples are allowed to adopt and they have to have been married for at least three years. Couples must be between 25 and 44 years old according to Spence-Chapin, an adoption organization.
At home, even though Shelley and David think it is very important for Jae to know where he came from, they don't think of him as adopted or Asian.
"I think of him as my son," said Shelley. "And I guess I think of him as like me. When Trump became president, I think the focus in our family has been more about women and how he treats women. There definitely was a thought about, 'How is this going to affect people of color?' and 'Is this going to affect Jae? Is he going to be targeted in any way?' But I think a lot of it is the community that we live in. It's very progressive, very tolerant."
Shelley and David wanted Jae to have a connection with his Korean culture, even in America. Every year since he was five, Jae participated in Camp Friendship, an organization with a week-long program for Korean children. In the summer of 2018, Jae went back as a counselor.
"His first birthday, we did a whole Korean-themed birthday," Rachael added. "We had some Korean tradition where the baby has ten items in front of him and the first one he chooses shows something about his future. He chose jujubes."
"What do jujubes represent?" Shelley asked. "Sweetness?"
"I don't remember."
"Hell if I know," said Jae.
Rachael smiled and said, "He chose them because sugar."
By the time David came home from church, Jae had already gone upstairs to enjoy his Sunday in peace. David joined Shelley and Rachael in the living room, where they discussed Jae's biological parents.
"We know they were tall," Rachael said.
"Yeah, we have their education, their heights," said Shelley. After Jae grew several inches this year, Shelley and David checked the records, wondering about his biological parents. "His biological father is five foot ten," Shelley added. "It was very tall for a Korean."
According to Rachael, Jae says he would never want to meet his biological parents. One study on adolescent American adoptees by the American Adoption Congress found that Jae is in the minority: 65 percent of subjects wanted to meet their birth parents.
"At one point, he said he never wanted to meet his biological father," said Shelley. "He's very angry. I don't know why. We never talk about it, except the basics of why a family would give a child up for adoption. We never talked about anything about what might have happened with his biological family. We do know that the mother was college educated and the father was not, so maybe it was something about that, that the parents said, 'You can't marry someone who isn't college educated.' But there was a while where he was really angry."
"When he was three, when he got mad at my mom, he would say that she was his third favorite mom," Rachael said.
"Yeah, well he would say, 'I wish I hadn't come here.'"
Rachael laughed. "No, no, he would say, 'You're my third favorite mom.'"
"Well, one time, he said, 'Well, why did I have to come here. I had two other moms,'" said Shelley. "So, one time later, he said, 'Mom, I love you.' And I said, 'Thank you, that's such a compliment because I know you have two other moms,' just to tease him a little bit." Everyone laughed at that.
In addition to Shelley's brother and sister, David also has cousins who are adopted, though they are white.
"My mom's only got one brother, and he has a biological son and two adopted daughters," he said.
"That's interesting because my friends are always so fascinated by the fact that we're one biological, one adopted, and I never thought of that as being a weird thing before," said Rachael. "But my friend does that all the time, where she says, 'I don't know how that dynamic would work.'"
Although there are no statistics available, several websites claim that many families have both biological and adopted children, including America's Adoption Agency.
"Well, I think the age gap is bigger than the difference of adopted versus not adopted," said David.
"And when we talk to the kids, you know, kids are different," said Shelley. "Rachael and Jae are different. There's similarities and there's differences. And sometimes, when I'm frustrated by the differences, and I talk to families that have all biological kids, they say, 'Listen, you can have two biological kids who are very different from each other. It's not just because one's adopted and one's biological.'"
"I used to think all these things Rachael did were biological because, well, you know, it's in the genes," David said. "She has to love musicals and she has to do stuff that's just part of being in this family because it's in the genes. And then I see Jae do them. And I'm like, uh-oh, this is a learned thing."
"Jujubes Represent Sugar" is an excerpt from Nicole Zelniker's book Mixed, published by The Nasiona. Of the book, Zelniker writes,
"The definition of families is widening—whether it's because of mixed-race relationships, interracial adoption, or a number of other factors. Today, it is important to hear from a growing population about race, their shifting identities, and what family means to them."

Eastern red cedar, black locust
Each end of the funnel offers a different perspective, view and perception. See the wide view from the narrow end and the narrow view from the wide end. Acting as an aperture the scene is narrowed or broadened in relation to the perspective, view and perception. The funnel's ubiquitous form is used as a way to concentrate and transfer, in this case, visual information from both ends. In daily life, views are often controlled and perspectives managed.
Eastern red (Juniperus virginiana) cedar is an inspirational, yet often just tolerated tree. Employed in this piece for strength, availability, durability and familiarity. Partnered with black locust (Robinia psuedoacacia) native to eastern US yet considered invasive in this region, is strong and highly rot resistant for the connecting dowel pins.

As we consider how technology enhances our lives, we should be asking where the balance lies as well. Careful thought should be given to our relationship with technology so as to not lose our humanity. It's become clear with Covid-19 that a small strand of RNA can deeply affect an entire species. What are the implications on other species of our altering the genetics of plants, animals and humans?

Climate Crisis: 1,700 Prominent US Scientists & Economists Call for Urgent & Sweeping Action, Senate Begins to Debate How Little It Can Get Away With
United States of Climate Change, Sightline
There are some in the Senate who insist that global warming is nothing more than science fiction. These are the same kind of voices who said that the world was flat, cigarettes were safe and cars didn't need airbags - long after the rest of us knew the truth.
The fact is that the overwhelming majority of scientists say that the earth is in peril if we don't act now. They've told us clearly that more than 40 percent of God's creatures could face extinction if we don't act now. They've told us of more intense weather events if we don't act now. Health experts have told us that infectious diseases will increase due to warmer waters. And military leaders have told us that unchecked global warming will lead to severe conflict and war as droughts, floods and rising sea levels create huge numbers of desperate refugees. Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA), Democratic Radio Address, 5-31-08
Climate Crisis Update: As 1,700 Prominent US Scientists & Economists Call for Urgent & Sweeping Action, the US Senate Begins to Debate How Little It Can Get Away With
With the assistance of its enablers in the US mainstream news media and political establishment, and despite the valiant efforts of a handful of enlightened leaders, such as Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA), the Bush-Cheney regime has succeeded in stalling any meaningful national action on the planetary climate crisis for eight years.
Only now has debate on legislation begun: The epic debate over global warming enters a new chapter today: The U.S. Senate will take up landmark legislation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It won't become law while George Bush is president, but it will lay a foundation for the next administration. John McCain, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton all have supported mandatory cuts in greenhouse gas emissions. San Jose Mercury, 6-2-08
Only now is the US federal government officially acknowledging this grave threat: The Bush administration, bowing to a court order, has released a fresh summary of federal and independent research pointing to large, and mainly harmful, impact of human-caused global warming in the United States. New York Times, 5-30-08
Of course, the legislation being proposed is insufficient, and the facts being acknowledged do not tell the whole story. But at least it is a beginning.
The problem is for the sake of the planet, the beginning needed to come years ago. And, even now, instead of acting with the urgency of those who understand that they are way behind in the race against time, the climate crisis is still being treated as if it were just one among several major issues -- as opposed to what it is, the defining challenge of our time.
Unlike most of the US mainstream news media and political establishment, the scientific and economic communities are articulating vital truths and calling for significant actions:
More than 1,700 of the nation's most prominent scientists and economists ... released a joint statement calling on policymakers to require immediate, deep reductions in heat-trapping emissions that cause global warming. Issued just days before the Senate begins debate on the Lieberman-Warner climate bill, the statement marks the first time leading U.S. scientists and economists have joined together to make such an appeal. ...
The statement stresses that implementing policies to achieve swift and substantial cuts is both economically sound and necessary to limit the worst consequences of climate change.
"There is a strong consensus that we must do something about reducing the emissions that cause global warming," said James McCarthy, president of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and one of the statement's authors. "The debate right now is about how much we need to cut. The fact that so many scientists and economists have spoken out and signed this letter should give policymakers the confidence that we can avert serious adverse climate impacts."
Besides McCarthy, the statement authors include Mario Molina, a Nobel Prize winner in chemistry; Peter Frumhoff, director of science and policy at the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) and an Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) lead author; Stephen Schneider, a Stanford University climatologist and a member of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS); and Geoff Heal, an economist at Columbia University's Business School. The signatories, compiled by UCS, include six Nobel Prize winners in science or economics, 31 NAS members, and more than 100 IPCC authors and editors, who all shared the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize with Al Gore. ...
The statement concludes that the United States should reduce global warming pollution "on the order of 80 percent below 2000 levels by 2050" and that the first step should be reductions of 15 to 20 percent below 2000 levels by 2020. The statement calls on the United States to set an example and bring nations together to meet the climate challenge.
Columbia University economist Heal said the cost of inaction far outweighs the cost of addressing climate change. The costs of cutting emissions to safe levels would be between 1 and 2 percent of gross domestic product (GDP), he said, while the costs of allowing climate change to proceed unabated would be on the order of 10 to 20 percent of GDP.
Heal sees the challenge of reducing global warming emissions as an economic opportunity. "Limiting global warming emissions is a great investment," he said. "When you compare the cost of acting to the cost of not acting, cutting emissions would give the world a return of 10 to 1. That's attractive even to a venture capitalist."

The Karen Fire burned 250 acres in Jurupa Valley Saturday while firefighters managed to reach 50% containment of the rapidly growing blaze, authorities said.
The brush fire was reported near Sierra Avenue and Karen Lane just after 3 p.m. but grew to 150 acres by 6:15 p.m., according to Cal Fire/Riverside County Fire Department.
About two hours later, officials said the fire was 250 acres but its containment was up considerably to 50%. Firefighters were expected to remain at the scene overnight to improve containment.
While it broke out in Riverside County, the wildfire also put authorities in neighboring San Bernardino County on high alert as it moved toward more populated areas there.
Capt. Fernando Herrera of the Cal Fire/Riverside County Fire Department told the Orange County Register that 20-mph winds carried the blaze toward housing developments along Armstrong and Locust Avenue in Bloomington, near Fontana.
He told the newspaper the homes did not appear to be in any immediate danger.
No evacuations have been ordered and no injuries reported.
Sierra Avenue from Jurupa Avenue through the county line as well as Armstrong Road, from 7th Street through the county line, are shut down, according to local fire officials. The roads are closed in both directions.
Correction: A previous version of this story incorrectly stated the day of the fire. The post has been updated.

Jorge Lázaro Ibáñez, a former Master in Management student from the February 2016 Intake, started as a Logistic Manager at Inditex in January 2017. Inditex's headquarter where Jorge is currently working, is located in the north of Spain in Arteixo, La Coruña.
He had previous experience in the Hospitality industry as Manager Assistant in Austin, TX. However, after his Master at IE, he decided to change completely his career path and shift to the Retail industry focusing on Logistics. Jorge has shared with us his story and how he achieved his career success at Inditex.
Q: Can you please tell us briefly about your new job?
A: Currently, I am working at Inditex in the Import/Export and Transport department. This department makes sure that all the stores around the world get new clothes twice a week. It is a fast-paced environment where you need to adapt and solve multiple issues that arise during the transportation process from the logistics center to the stores.
Q: Has your personal career strategy always been focused on this job? How does this new job fit into your career strategy?
A: At IE my specialization was International Business because I wanted to work in a company that operated around the world. And this is exactly what Inditex has given me: an opportunity to constantly communicate with all coworkers and business partners around the world.
Every day I am in touch with people from different countries, this international work environment makes me learn a lot. Besides this, it is a department where you can move from one position to another so you can have a full understanding of all the processes.
Once they see that you are confident handling a specific task, they move you to the next one so you do not have time to accommodate. It is a great chance for recent graduates to figure out what you like.
Q: How did you find out about this job opportunity?
A: I found this job opportunity thanks to an email sent by Mariola Díez from IE Talent & Careers.
Q: How did Talent & Careers and your IE experience help you during the recruiting process? Did you use specific career resources or did you come across useful information via an Advisor or Alumni?
A: As I found this opportunity very interesting, I contacted Mariola and she helped me out to change a few details in my CV to make it more suitable for Inditex.
Q: How was the recruiting process: stages, tests, interviews, etc.?
A: After I applied through IE, I got an email to make a first interview via Skype. It was during summer and after 20 minutes they told me that the program started in September. The problem I saw was that I was from the February intake so the program did not work for me. Nevertheless, the recruiter told me that I had a good profile so we agreed that once I finish my master, we would talk again.
In October, I had a second Skype interview with the director of the department. After that interview, I did not hear from them until I sent an email in December letting them know that I was about to graduate and asking if they still had any vacancy.
A couple of weeks later, they called me to have a third interview with another colleague from the department. At the beginning of January, I received an offer to work with them.
On the first Interview I had during summer 2016, they asked me about myself and my professional experience. In the second interview (the most important one), they asked me about my interest in Logistics and the position within the company. For the third interview, they were focused on my international experience and the career path I would like to follow, making questions like Where do you see yourself in five years?
Q: Would you want to share any tips or advice with students interested in applying to Inditex? To your job position in particular?
A: Inditex is a fast company, you need to be able to adapt and do not be afraid to make mistakes, which is normal.
They value proactive behavior, since day one you have responsibilities, you are in charge of many things so you need to step up your game. You need to be comfortable getting out of your comfort zone and know how to deal with stress. If so, this is the place for you to work at.
You need to show that you can handle work under pressure, a good attitude to face problems, and most important being able to adapt to all circumstances. If you fit this profile, Inditex will offer you plenty of opportunities to grow.
Inditex is a Spanish multinational fashion retailer headquartered in Arteixo, Galicia. Being the biggest fashion group in the world, Inditex operates over 7,504 stores in 94 markets worldwide and employs around 162,000 people.
Zara is the company's flagship store, but there are several other known chains that also belong to Inditex, as for example: Zara Home, Massimo Dutti, Bershka, Oysho, Pull and Bear, Stradivarius and Uterqüe.
The majority of its stores are corporate-owned, while franchises are mainly conceded in countries where corporate properties cannot be foreign-owned. The company's business model is unique and works as follows: instead of committing a large percentage of production for the next fashion season, the company commits a small amount and uses customer feedback and an efficient production network to replenish stores with new and different products weekly.

McShay on No. 9: Offensive tackle a possiblity

JACKSONVILLE – Todd McShay likes offensive tackle for the Jaguars early.
That sets him apart from many observers when it comes to the 2020 NFL Draft, but ESPN's longtime draft analyst left little doubt when projecting Iowa left tackle Tristian Wirfs to the Jaguars at No. 9 overall in his latest '20 mock draft:
This is a good offensive line class, and the Jaguars could benefit.
"There are five-to-six offensive tackles that I think belong in the Top 40 in this year's class," he said.
McShay, speaking on a conference call on Tuesday wrapping up last week's 2020 NFL Scouting Combine, discussed multiple issues – including other possibilities for the Jaguars in The Top 10.
He also discussed extensively what some analysts believe is one of the better offensive-tackle classes in recent memory. McShay not only projected Wirfs to the Jaguars at No. 9 in his latest mock, he projected Louisville left tackle Mekhi Becton to the Arizona Cardinals at No. 8 and Alabama offensive tackle Jedrick Wills Jr. to the Cleveland Browns at No. 10.
NFL Network analyst Daniel Jeremiah had a similar early run on the position early in his post-combine mock, projecting Wirfs to the New York Giants at No. 4, Becton to the Los Angeles Chargers at No. 6 and Wills to the Cardinals at No. 8. Jeremiah also projected Georgia tackle Andrew Thomas to the Browns at No. 10.
"If you're looking for an offensive lineman, you're going to have options there," McShay said the Jaguars' No. 9 position.
The Jaguars hold the Nos. 9 and 20 overall selections in the draft.
PLENTY OF OPTIONS
While McShay mocked Wirfs to the Jaguars, he also agreed with many analysts that defensive tackle Derrick Brown of Auburn could fit there. The question is whether Brown will be available at No. 9, with many analysts projecting him selected earlier. McShay ranked his top defensive players available this year as follows: Ohio State defensive end Chase Young, Brown, Ohio State cornerback Jeff Okudah and Clemson safety/linebacker Isaiah Simmons. "Derrick Brown would be an option," McShay said of No. 9. "Chase Young won't be there. Isaiah Simmons possibly could [be available] because quarterbacks always get pushed up. If you get one of these offensive tackles, if you get a weapon at receiver, if you get a defensive front seven guy … I think Jacksonville would be happy with any of those."
STRONG CLASS IN THE BACKFIELD
The consensus among many analysts is this may be the best wide receiver class in the history of the draft. McShay said while the running back class isn't as strong early, it shouldn't be overlooked. "Even though we might only have one in the first round, this year's group is a really good one," McShay said. McShay said he considers De'Andre Swift of Georgia the best of this year's running backs just ahead of J.K. Dobbins of Ohio State, Jonathan Taylor of Wisconsin and Clyde Edwards-Helaire of Louisiana State. "Swift is just a notch above those guys because he's so complete, he will protect and he's so explosive," he said. "It's easy to see on tape."
NOS. 1 and 2 LOCKED IN
Speculation during combine week was the Washington Redskins might consider taking a quarterback or trading at No. 2. McShay doubts either will happen, and said he believes the Cincinnati Bengals will take Louisiana State quarterback Joe Burrow No. 1 overall with the Redskins selecting Young from Ohio State at No. 2. "I think Washington really loves Chase Young," McShay said. "I think [Redskins Owner] Daniel Snyder loves [2019 first-round quarterback Dwayne] Haskins, and that was very apparent last year. It just seems to me that if Burrow goes [No.] 1, it's going to be Chase Young at No. 2 for the Redskins. And then the draft kind of starts at 3, if you will, in terms of some possible movement. I think three with the Lions and four with the Giants is where the movement could very possibly start for a team to go up and get [Alabama quarterback] Tua Tagovailoa.''
BIG ON SIMMONS
Count McShay among those considering Simmons a definite Top 10 selection, particularly after he ran an official 4.39-second 40-yard dash at the combine. "We all knew he was fast, but that's a different level, man," McShay said. "You're pumped if you're a wide receiver at 5-feet-11 ½, 198 pounds running a 4.39. Then you're talking about Simmons who's 6-3 ½, 240 pounds running that time. That's just different. He can still improve in terms of getting off blocks and he can be a quarter count late in terms of recognition skills versus the run sometimes. But the dude can play." McShay agreed with many analysts that Simmons' ability to play multiple positions – linebacker, safety, pass rusher, etc. – makes him particularly valuable. "The versatility is unique," McShay said. "He fits today in the league perfectly. He allows you to be multiple and that's what so many [defensive] coordinators are looking for now because of the way the game has changed. It's so much more out of the box than it is in the box in terms of style of play that you need players like this who can stay on the field [on every down]. He's a Top 10 pick."

Global Academy Network stands up…
IAP outlines a set of measures to protect forests and fight climate change in response to the ongoing global crisis surrounding deforestation and forest burning
The InterAcademy Partnership (IAP) choose Cop25 to release its Communique on Tropical Forest. This document outlines a set of necessary measures aimed not only at protecting forests worldwide, but also fighting climate change. IAP takes a strong stance against deforestation. In doing so, it wants to build momentum on the path towards COP26 Conference in Glasgow, when all Parties to the Paris Agreement are expected to communicate or update their national climate targets.
"In 2009, IAP released a Statement to bring attention to the fact that there can be no solution to the climate crisis without addressing deforestation. Now – 10 years later – we are facing a situation of increasing rates of deforestation, as seen in recent reports of fires burning in the Amazon basin and elsewhere, so we have decided to make our voice heard again," says IAP President Volker ter Meulen.
Evidence-based measures to save tropical forests
IAP's analysis outlines a set of evidence-based measures to save tropical forests: we must reduce fossil fuel use, understand the causes of deforestation, apply our knowledge effectively, engage the international community, and invest in both forest preservation and climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies.
"We are facing a global crisis: the Amazon forest fires have attracted intense global attention, but this catastrophe affects the rest of the world as well. Thousands of fires ravaged Bolivia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, India, not to mention many countries in Africa," adds Masresha Fatene, IAP Policy co-chair.
The problems with fires
Forest fires and deforestation are interlinked, and have many and wide-ranging implications for the environment. Fires are a major source of greenhouse gases on a scale matching or exceeding the emissions from many mid-sized countries, and continued high rates of deforestation are in contrast to the critical importance of protecting and increasing forest cover – the most effective short-term means of moderating atmospheric CO2 levels. Human activities such as land clearance and slash-and-burn agriculture are of course primary drivers for deforestation, but climate change, with its increases in temperature, drying, climate extremes, and lengthening of the fires season, increases the risk. And while scientists know deforestation may reduce the ability of the climate to support the forest, REDD (Reducing emissions from deforestation and degradation) and other international measures to reduce or halt deforestation have not yet proved effective.
Reversing instead of reducing
"Government policies of the host nations are critical, but unfortunately governments do not always play their part to stop deforestation. For instance, Brazil has recently enacted a series of major changes to its environmental policies, including heavy cuts to government agencies that enforce environmental protection laws," highlights Paulo Artaxo from University of Sao Paulo's Institute of Physics, who was among the world-leading experts who drafted this peer-reviewed document.
The goal of the international community, highlights IAP's analysis, should shift from REDUCING emissions from deforestation and degradation to their REVERSAL, so that REDD would become 'Reversing emissions from deforestation and degradation'.
Many stakeholders are concerned
"Tackling challenges related to forest fires in Amazon and other regions particularly in densely populated parts of Asia need focused efforts at governmental policy level as well as in social, management and technical levels," adds Krishan Lal, IAP Science co-chair. "Science, technology and innovation have major challenges in developing newer techniques in areas like sustainable harvesting, which minimize production of waste, as well as utilization of waste into lucrative products, to avoid burning of residues after each harvest to prepare the land for next crop. Also, intense R&D for developing newer sources of energy has become of utmost importance," he adds.
The statement (available here) was signed by the Steering Committee members of the InterAcademy Partnership.
