Good afternoon IMASA Knights
It is indeed a great privilege to present to you the 19th Annual Report of the Institute for Municipal Administrators of South Africa (IMASA). Our Institute is now approaching its third decade and it is reassuring to note that IMASA is, after twenty years, despite challenges, still vibrant, purposeful and successful. IMASA is 20 Years Young.
At my first inauguration as President in 2015, I made the commitment from my heart that I will serve IMASA and strive to promote and further the common interests of its members, endeavour to reach the objectives and founding values of IMASA. I promised that we, together, would change the IMASA world. I wanted to be like the words of Ayn Rand – "The question isn't who's going to let me; it's who is going to stop me."
However, municipal and real life happens. Municipal challenges increased. Some doors closed due to changes in legislation. Politics driving the governing of most municipalities. Disclaimed Auditor General Opinion and increasingly corrupt municipal officials.
In my second year, I realised it is time to forget about the fast lane. If I really want to fly, I have to harness my power to my passion. I have learned more about individual members by means of strong initiatives and the impact they made within their municipalities. I had the privilege to assist members, listen to challenges, illnesses and being a listening ear when municipal matters were too much and there is still no doubt in my mind that we share the same passion and pride for IMASA.
After my third term, I am even more deeply concerned about the well-being and future of our beloved institute. Although legislation informs that all senior municipal official should belong to a professional institute, IMASA is no longer the only professional institute. Most disciplines have their own institute – and the question of what can we do differently to be the preferred institute to attract new members and attain current members, is constantly on my mind. With the words of Max du Pree, "The first responsibility of a leader is to define reality. The last is to say thank you. In between, the leader is a servant" I realised that we should all become servants again.
Municipal official will always be the ones who are in touch and on track with legislative responsibilities and operations. The ones that councillors and the community can count on to make sure that the municipality operates smoothly. Our jobs are multi-faceted and ever changing. This requires us to engage in continuing education and networking to keep abreast of changing laws and trends.
IMASA provides a vehicle for members to receive the background and knowledge needed to help them deal with current problems. The future of municipal government depends on informed public officials. Informed IMASA Knights through education. Institutions come and go, but we have the choice of making a difference while we are here.
Vision and Strategy for 2017/18
IMASA still strives to become more visible through commitment, action, and influence and not allowing politics to drive the governing of municipalities. We aimed to be agents of good governance, keepers of the public record, historians, and ensuring continuity of service no matter what is going on in the world around us.
Workshops and conferences become more challenging by the day, but we as IMASA are an integral part of our government and we must be dedicated to preserve and protect our profession. We need to discover new means of promoting the awareness of IMASA.
The original wish of IMASA, when established on 02 October 1997, was that the institutes should be branch driven with the NIC (NMC) in a the supervisory role. We should get back to basics as we still mark the turning point in IMASA; we are at the edge of great decisions. However, to abandon our institute because we are scared for the future and struggle to attend meetings, is a sure way to lose our footing.
Believe in yourself, believe in IMASA and believe you can make a difference. I challenge each IMASA member to become re-energized in local government.
Remember, IMASA can only be as strong as its branches. The branches are the backbone of our activities, not the NMC.
IMASA has recruited 14 new members during the past year. Although some branches has cleaned-up their membership lists and terminated the names of inactive members there is still a slow growth in membership. It remains a challenge to grow our membership in all nine Provinces, as five provinces are somehow non-existing.
It is therefore imperative that we seek ways to increase our membership to ensure that IMASA is taken seriously as a major role player in Local Government circles. Recruitment of new members is a collective responsibility and I therefore again urge and challenge every member of IMASA to recruit at least one new member this coming year, as it would effectively double our membership.
Branch Affairs
Branch affairs are a major concern. It seems all branches are struggling to get their members involved in IMASA affairs. It is therefore crucial to ensure our members receive value for their money. Efforts should be made to ensure that branches are strengthened to function optimally.
The North West, Limpopo and Western Cape Branches have full Branch Management Committees (BMC) in place.
It however, gives me pleasure to report the Limpopo branch is still the only shining star that is currently functioning at an acceptable level. The Limpopo branch has convened four successful workshops. Well done!
The Western Cape branch aimed to arrange workshops, but due to low attendance had to postpone. Nevertheless, they have arrange what promises to be an excellent conference. Western Cape, know that your efforts and dedicated work is noticed.
The Gauteng branch successfully appointed an interim BMC, which I had the privilege to meet. Derek, I believe in you and your team will re-instate the honour and success of the Gauteng branch. I believe the branch will next year be the official competition of Limpopo.
The North West branch is still going through difficult times. None of the municipalities in the North West province could manage to obtain a qualified audit opinion, mostly disclaimers, which resulted in municipalities not having the finances to assist members to attend branch meetings and workshops. However, I believe we will revive and come back as strong as always.
A decision was taken at a NMC meeting that the President visits all branches; sadly, no invitation was received during the year under discussion.
The financial report to be tabled later on will provide a comprehensive view of our financial standing. It seems after a pre-glance that our finances are stable and no longer precarious as mentioned last year. IMASA is in a sound financial state.
Our financial strength currently depends solely on membership fees and funds generated by our annual conferences, and it will suffice to say that sponsorships and donations are most welcome, especially to bankroll our certification programme.
National Management Committee
The NMC successfully met at four occasions during the past year, to pursue decisions of the Annual General Meeting and to deal with the many strategic and policy matters of the institute. It was earlier decided to scale down the number of NMC meetings due to financial constraints on the part of members in relation to traveling and so on, as a result most of the issues were delegated to the NMC.
International Relations
I was privileged to attend the 72th IIMC Annual Conference from 19 – 23 May 2018 in Norfolk, Virginia, USA, as mandated by the Institute. I was privileged to be accompanied by the Deputy President, Winnie Baloyi. I thank IMASA sincerely for the opportunity to represent IMASA at an international conference. It was an absolute honour to hold the name of IMASA high and to carry our national flag in Virginia, USA.
700+ Delegates, including inter alia USA, Canada, Bermuda, England, Scotland, Wales, Belgium, Netherlands and Israel, attended the 72th IIMC Annual Conference. What a networking opportunity and event is was! In addition, great to meet "old" friends again.
As mentioned last year, the constitutional and institutional arrangements of the municipalities in the USA differs largely from South Africa. Belonging to the IMC is compulsory to all municipal officials in the USA which results in financial support of municipalities regarding membership fees and conferences, but they also share common concerns like nepotism and corruption to name some examples. They are however very serious about holding perpetrators accountable and prosecuting them to the full extent of their law.
The conference programme was intensive with:
- an impressive opening ceremony;
- 10 concurrent educational sessions;
- 2 general sessions;
- 6 annual conference educational programmes;
- 4 Athenian Leadership Society dialogues;
- 4 different meetings;
- an "all-conference" event; and
- finally the glamorous annual banquet.
The general sessions were excellent as always! We were addressed by the world famous Major Mary Jennings Hegar – author to the book and soon-to-be motion picture, "Shoot like a girl: One woman's dramatic fight in Afghanistan and on the home front" with the topic "Be the Change…" What an honour to meet her personally! A living Purple Heart soldier! Great women and example to all human kind.
The second speaker during the general session was none other than our own South African Neal Petersen! His topic was "No Barriers – Only Solutions". Also a privilege to meet him in person. He also joined the Region 11 group afterwards for dinner.
The concurrent sessions made it not possible to attend all sessions. The attendance at the sessions was on a first come first serve basis, with the result that when all the available seats were occupied the venue doors closed and you were not allowed in.
The topics of the concurrent sessions were:
- Utilizing Non-Paid Staff to Meet Community Needs;
- Cultural and Linguistic Competence;
- Empowering Leadership;
- How to Create a Memorable Council Orientation;
- Surviving Life Under the Limbo Bar;
- The Freedom of Information Act—The Do's, the Don'ts;
- Uncertainties; Developing Effective and Interactive Training Programs;
- The Courage and Compassion to Do the Right Thing: A Lesson in Making a Positive Difference;
- The Realignment Roundabout: Overcoming Failure and
- Ethical Issues for Local Government Clerks.
Winnie and myself had to miss out the conference educational programmes and dialogues as it were too expensive (R2 500 and R1 650 per session respectively) for us South Africans to attend. I have read some feedbacks on the dialogs and programmes and it sounds excellent. Very educational.
All Institutes outside the USA are grouped under Region 11, including South Africa. A function was arranged so that all members could have the opportunity to meet and discuss municipal matters. Again, the same common concerns were raised.
I, again thank IMASA sincerely for the opportunity.
IMASA Training Trust
After discussion with SETA is seems IMASA as an institute can register as a service provider as we do have an office, bank account, NMC, VAT clearance, etc. The NMC made a resolution on 2 March 2018 to request Adv Stephan Pick to terminate the IMASA Training Trust, which is costly with no income and still not operational due to training material not developed. In addition, IMASA will only receive 25% of all income generated through the Trust of which only 15% will be for the branch account and 10% for the NMC account. It was decided that branches would revert to original arrangements, by arranging workshop with accredited service providers until such time that IMASA is more knowledgeable.
I have requested the Administrator and Adv Piek during April 2018 to keep the Trust termination in abeyance until such time that IMASA is sure that we can registered the institute as a service provider without a trust.
After 3 years IMASA still only have three accredited Assessors and one Moderator. No branch has submitted any training material for accreditation, due to the daily work commitments, none of the members had time to compile and submit training material for accreditation.
During 2018 I was contracted by Mr Frans Labuschagne, Deputy Director: Competency Training of the Tshwane Municipality enquiring about the issuing of Continuous Development Points (CDP) to its members attending training courses, seminars, workshops or conferences. He indicated that he had done extensive investigation to find an institute that would best cater for leadership development in local authorities. Specifically for staff on levels lower than the City Manager and EDs or Directors reporting directly to him/her. His conclusion was that IMASA was best positioned for this but our constitution does not specifically include leadership as one of the disciplines required for professional membership.
I was further invited to a meeting with Mr Labuschagne and Prof Derick de Jongh of the University of Pretoria to discuss this matter. Prof de Jongh indicated that an accredited short course in Leadership has been developed and that he is ready to present such a course under the auspices of IMASA. It was suggested that should IMASA be willing to expand its constitution to include leadership as one of the disciplines required for professional membership and issue CDP to its members attending such a course, the course could be presented to staff members of Tshwane Municipality as a pilot project.
The NMC agreed that IMASA entered into a MoU with UP to promote and conduct leadership programmes in the name of IMASA. IMASA has successfully recruited Frans as an IMASA member who will assist me with the correct way to accredit IMASA as a SETA Accredited Service Provider who complies with all SAQA and SETA standards.
Our first workshop for accreditation will be on 15 November 2018. I therefor humbly request the meeting to support the proposal that I commence with the IMASA accreditation matter.
IMASA Website
I am proud to announce that IMASA has appointed a new service provider for the website. The website had a facelift and is fully functional!
IMASA members are requested to become involved and forward news and important matters to their various branch secretaries for liaison with the Administrator to be uploaded via the webmaster on the website. Please, IMASA Knights, use and promote our website – www.imasa.net.
IMASA was and is faced by various challenges, such as the upcoming local government elections, recognition by municipalities, shrinking membership, inactive branches, lack of approval to attend workshop and conferences, non-commitment of members and non-payment of membership fees. Legislative changes such as accredited service providers for workshops and cost-containment measures from National Treasury.
We should stop dreaming and seeing barriers, we should seek solutions and work for success. We should make challenges opportunities and work toward it. Didn't our beloved father of the nation, Dr Nelson Mandela said, "It always seems impossible until it's done"?
I still stand by what I said. Collectively, we as IMASA members can increase the presence, credibility, and influence of IMASA when we commit to work together. We have worked too hard to quit now.
Way forward
My dream is that the new leadership will successfully implement the way forward. We as IMASA members must ensure that all our members are equipped to:
- Establish IMASA as a successful SETA Accredited Service Provider.
- Do more with less.
- Take action through the development and delivery of educational programs, shared resources, and the many valuable networking and mentoring opportunities available to us.
- Become dedicated IMASA Knights through commitment, action, and influence that serve as a foundation for continuity and effective governance.
- Remember who we are serving and use your influence to effect positive change.
- Supporting different branch initiatives / workshops.
- Recruit members.
- Be the change that you want to see in your municipality.
- Respect one another's professions.
- Be dedicated to serve our profession… recognized for an increasingly rare combination of qualities which demonstrates the quality of a public servant capable of upholding the integrity of the municipality.
Start asking yourself: What can I do for IMASA…
Since 1998, as a founding member of IMASA, I have been intensely involved in the affairs of IMASA. I never expected to be elected as Deputy and then as National President. I sincerely hope that I performed to the member's expectations. I trust I added value to IMASA and to local government. Thank you IMASA, for allowing me to be a member and President of such a great institute. I am proud to be an IMASA Knight and a dedicated municipal official and it was an honour to offer my service at this pivotal time in our institute.
I want to express my extreme gratitude towards my municipality, the City of Matlosana for giving me this opportunity and allowing me to tend to IMASA affairs. A special word of thanks to my Municipal Manager, Mr Roger Nkhumise for always supporting and assisting me in easy and difficult times.
I also want to thank all municipalities for their support in affording our members the opportunity to attend this conference and participate in IMASA's activities.
I further want to thank my Deputy, all the members of the NMC and Administrator, the North West branch, my IMASA family, for their dedication and support even when we had differences and all the members of IMASA for their continued membership and contributions. Thank you for also being part our IMASA family.
Lastly but most importantly, I want to thank the Almighty God for this privilege and my family, Fanie, Franco, Clara and my mom, Rika for their continuous support and belief in me. Without God and the support of my family and friends, I would not be in this fortunate position today.
Thanks for the shared experiences, the treasured memories, and the spirited fellowship. We have a lot of work to do in the upcoming year, and I believe the best is yet to come.
I am closing with the words of Major Mary Jennings Hegar "When someone tells you that something cannot be done, the only way to prove them wrong is to do what they believe to be impossible".
I wish you a wonderful, vibrant and exciting conference.
Believe in yourself, believe in IMASA and believe that you can make a difference. Go IMASA forever!
I thank you

8 September 2017
Nicholas registered as a potential blood stem cell donor during a DKMS registration event at his company in 2015. Two years after his registration and a few weeks before moving house, Nicholas was identified as a potential match for someone diagnosed with blood cancer.
"I first heard about DKMS and blood stem cell donation when DKMS came into my work reception and asked if I was interested in signing up as a potential blood stem cell donor. I wanted see if I could help someone out."
This was the start of his donor journey which he has kindly shared with us:
"I'd always wanted to donate blood but never got round to it, because of the length of time you can't exercise after. Blood stem cell donation seemed a pretty seamless transition from donation to normal routine, so it really suited my lifestyle.
To be honest I completely forgot I signed up, so when I was told I was a match it was a bit of a shock. After being told you're a match, you go for a blood test at a local hospital. Once you've been confirmed as a match, they then send you for a medical at the hospital.
After the medical, if you're deemed healthy, a date will be set for the donation and four days prior a nurse will come to your home/work to administer the first of four G-CSF injections. The injection side effects are the worst bit, they give some aches in your hips and lower back. However it's nothing worth complaining about, it's not like you have cancer.
Finally after the four days of injections, you arrive at the hospital and they set you up to a machine (very similar to a dialysis unit).
Nicholas donating some of his blood stem cells via peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) collection
Blood comes out of one arm into the machine and then enters through the other after they've removed the blood stem cells. It's painless and takes around 4 - 5 hours. After that, no more aches in my hips or lower back and you feel a little tired.
I was a little tired the next day, however I got over this pretty quickly. In fact, I ran 8km two days after; granted I was slower than usual, but nothing too bad.
Now I've had time to digest what I've done, it feels quite good to have helped someone. People kept telling me what an amazing thing it was I was doing, but I just waved it off as nothing because all I did was sit in a bed for a few hours.
However when I found out some details about the patient, it became a lot more real.
If I have the chance to meet the recepient of my blood stem cells in two years' time I would ask them: "Nice stem cells, where did you get them from?""
A big thank you to Nicholas for giving a second chance of life to someone with a blood cancer and fitting the donation in his busy schedule! He's got a new home now, while the recipient of his donation could get a new life!
If you're feeling inspired and would like to register, check your eligibility and sign up as a potential blood stem cell donor today. Anyone aged between 17-55 and in general good health can go on standby to save a life.
If you are not eligible or are already registered, why not check the other ways to get involved in the fight against blood cancer or help us cover donor registration costs?

Residential - Mold Removal Services
Mold is a living organism. It uses moisture in its environment to grow. Left unchecked, it can quickly take over a home. Water damage can create optimal conditions for mold growth.

It's important to take care of the problem right away before it takes over your home. At Carpet Tech, we can help you get rid of mold with mold removal services!
Mold spores are microscopic which means you can't see them with the naked eye. By the time you smell something musty, mold spores are already entering your lungs. These spores can cause respiratory issues, allergies, and other health problems for you and your family.
Mold usually grows because of hidden water damage. Undetected moisture is the most common cause of mold growth. Mold spores sneak into your home through windows, doors, or vents. Spores can even hitch a ride on clothing or pets. These pesky stowaways find wet environments where they can flourish.
Here are the most common circumstances that lead to mold and the need for mold removal services:

Military worker 'driving on wrong side crashes near site of Harry Dunn's death'
A staff member at the US military base involved in Harry Dunn's death has allegedly crashed a car into a wall after 'driving on the wrong side of the road'.
A black BMW veered off the road just before 7.45pm on Wednesday evening in the village of Aynho, Northamptonshire.
The incident took place a couple of miles from RAF Croughton where the teenager, 19, lost his life in August last year.
The driver has been accused of being on the wrong side of the road before the crash, PA reports. Harry's family has claimed the UK government is 'failing in their duty to… safeguard our lives' and described the US administration as a 'disgrace' in the aftermath of the incident.
The car involved in the collision was not on diplomatic plates and was not being driven by someone with diplomatic immunity, Northamptonshire Police has said.
An RAF Croughton spokeswoman said they were 'cooperating fully' with Northamptonshire Police's investigation and would 'apply corrective measures as needed'.
They added that the '501st Combat Support Wing remains committed to the safety of US and UK personnel, both on our bases and in the surrounding communities'.
Harry was killed when his motorbike collided with a car – allegedly driven by Anne Sacoolas, wife of US diplomat Jonathan Sacoolas – outside the military base on August 27.
Sacoolas claimed diplomatic immunity following the crash and was allowed to return to the US.
An extradition request was rejected by US secretary of state Mike Pompeo in January after she was charged with causing death by dangerous driving.
After the teenager's death, chief constable of Northamptonshire Police, Nick Adderley, said he would fund driver training at RAF Croughton in an attempt to prevent similar incidents.
However, he announced in January there had been two further incidents of American staff driving on the wrong side of the road.
Dunn family spokesman Radd Seiger said last night: 'What is it going to take before something is done?
'The loss of Harry Dunn was not enough. The near misses since his death have not been enough. Will this disastrous crash tonight make any difference?
'The UK Government are failing in their duty to protect and safeguard our lives. I have made it clear to them that enough is enough and they must do whatever it takes, this being British soil, to make sure that the Americans drive in accordance with our laws when they come off the base.
'As for the American government, they are a disgrace. They have failed to engage with us at all to discuss how they are going to improve safety for their benefit as well as ours.
'They have their heads buried in the sand. Well, we will not stand for this any longer and I will be making representations in the strongest possible terms.
'If, as seems inevitable, there is further bloodshed, it will be on theirs and the UK government's hands.'
Dunn family's local MP, Andrea Leadsom, is due to speak with police on Thursday about the latest incident, it is understood.
The former business secretary is said to be attempting to arrange a virtual meeting between the Dunn family and the base commander at RAF Croughton, Colonel Bridget McNamara.
A Northamptonshire Police spokeswoman, said: 'We were called at 7.45pm last night to reports of a road traffic collision in Aynho involving a BMW 5 Series colliding with a fence.
'We deployed to the scene and are investigating the incident in line with our usual road traffic collision procedures. Thankfully no one was injured as a result of the collision.'
The Foreign Office has been contacted for comment.

ST. LOUIS COUNTY, MO – It's shaping up to be a banner year for morel mushroom hunters in the St. Louis area. Hunters have been spreading out across the bi-state area looking for the valuable mushroom.
Shauna Sullivan has been hunting morel mushrooms in the St. Clair, Missouri area for about seven years, "I just hear they're worth their weight in gold."
When she finds them, she doesn't sell them, she cooks them for her family, "Morel mushroom sautéed in butter taste like a steak taste like a juicy sirloin steak," said Sullivan.
Sullivan is a photographer for the Missouri Morel Hunting website, the group follows morel sightings statewide and soil temperatures.
The mushrooms can be free for the taking. The spokesman for the Missouri Department of Conservation, Dan Zarlenga, said, "You are permitted to collect the morel mushrooms on conservation areas unless otherwise posted for personal use."
In other words, restaurant owners cannot take them from conservation land to sell to customers and people cannot sell them either if they are from conservation land. People may want to get a book to make sure the mushroom you plan to eat is safe for consumption.
Good hunters are good at keeping secrets, "It's always been a really hush, hush kind of thing because people don't want to give away their spots," said Sullivan.
It's difficult for Shauna Sullivan to keep quiet about the day she hit the morel jackpot, "I see one and another and everywhere I look there's morels the feeling was kind of unbelievable, 53 in ten minutes."
The weather is credited with the potentially big crop this spring.
People said a pound of the morel mushrooms can sell for $40.

The Shaky Case For Birthright Citizenship
President Donald J. Trump exercised his uncanny ability to suck the oxygen out of the room by his bold tweet last week that the United States should do away with "so-called Birthright Citizenship," perhaps even by executive order, because it "costs our Country billions of dollars and is very unfair to our citizens." Trump insists that children of illegal aliens born in the United States do not become citizens of the United States by their birth alone. The counterattack, mounted by anti-Trump crusaders like Bret Stephens of the New York Times, has been equally categorical: "Shame so-called conservatives and 'originalists' can't respect the plain text of the U.S. Constitution."
The issue is a lot more complicated than either of these hyperbolic assertions. To put the problem in context, let's start with the relevant text of the Constitution—Section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment, adopted in 1868, which reads:
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
In legal scholarship, the battle over the scope birthright citizenship is commonly said to turn on alternative readings of the cryptic phrase "subject to the jurisdiction thereof." Defenders of birthright citizenship give this phrase a narrow reading. Thus Professor Josh Blackman of the South Texas College of Law, writing recently in the Wall Street Journal, insists that this phrase "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" applies chiefly to children of diplomats born in the United States, because they are generally immune from the enforcement of American laws. Originally, that phrase also excluded Native Americans born on tribal lands, who were considered citizens of their own sovereign nations but not of the United States. That exclusion was undone by the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924, as Congress has the power to extend citizenship to persons who do not receive it under Section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment.
On the other side, Professor Matthew Spalding of Hillsdale College, also writing in the Wall Street Journal, insists that the phrase "subject to the jurisdiction of thereof" has a far broader reading that covers all individuals that did not owe "full political allegiance" to the United States because they owed allegiance elsewhere. He notes that the 1873 Slaughter-House Cases support that position when it says: "The phrase, 'subject to its jurisdiction' was intended to exclude from its operation children of ministers, consuls, and citizens or subjects of foreign States born within the United States."
In truth neither of these warring interpretations makes a whole lot of sense. Blackman's view would lead to the odd outcome that children of foreign diplomats born in the United States would become citizens if Congress by law lifted diplomatic immunity for infractions like parking tickets and petty theft. On the other side, it seems odd that the children of stateless aliens illegally present in the United States could become citizens of the United States because their stateless parents are not citizens or subjects of foreign nations.
Clearly, a more systematic interpretation is needed. The point of departure is the simple but powerful proposition that the first sentence in the Fourteen Amendment overrules the infamous 1857 decision of Dred Scott v. Sandford, in which Chief Justice Roger Taney, in some of the ugliest language ever written, denied that slaves of African descent could ever become citizens of the United States. Citizenship would, of course, entitle them to all the privileges and immunities of citizenship, such as the right to petition the national government, which are not extended to aliens who as "persons" residing in the United States receive only the more limited protections of the Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses.
The granting of citizenship is thus a preferred status, and the question is who gets it. Clearly the clause is not limited to slaves born in the United States, but also extends to persons of different nationalities born in the United States, e.g. Chinese, so long as they are subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. Nor does the Fourteenth Amendment, override prior citizenship law, based on prior British practice, which extends citizenship to children of American citizens (or even one citizen) born either in the United States or abroad, although persons born abroad have to take complex steps to "acquire citizenship" in the United States. Accordingly, it is undoubted that the child of any legal alien born in the United States is also a citizen of the United States. Thus the 1898 case of Wong Kim Ark emphatically held that the federal government could not exclude from entry to the United States a child born of Chinese parents lawfully resident in the United States when he sought to return from China. The obvious rationale for this result is that when the United States seeks to encourage aliens to take up residence in the United States, one powerful inducement is to secure the citizenship of their children at the time of birth. Yet there is not a single reference to the children of illegal aliens living within the United States in Wong Kim Ark. Now the rationale of Wong Kim Ark cuts the other way. By definition, the United States has not recruited illegal aliens, which is why they could be kept out of the United States before they arrive—or deported once their illegal status has been verified, perhaps after a legal hearing that meets the requirements of due process that attaches to all persons in the United States.
At this point, the discussion should turn from the words "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" to a reading of the Fourteenth Amendment in light of its broader context. It is a crude misunderstanding of "originalism" to assume that the meaning of a Constitutional provision is limited to an explication of its written text. Huge portions of constitutional doctrine have long been inferred by "necessary implication," to lift a phrase from the 1871 Supreme Court decision Collector v. Day, which developed the judicial doctrine of sovereign immunity that exempted the salary of a state judicial officer from federal taxation. The introduction of sovereign immunity as a constitutional principle was only one of a large set of constitutional doctrines dealing with the scope of federal-state relationships. Another example of a doctrine read into the constitution involves the recognition of the state's "police power", which limits the protections of the Bill of Rights in the name of the "health, safety, morals, and general welfare" of the public at large, or the doctrine of unconstitutional conditions that makes it clear, for example, that the government cannot condition the use of public highways on the willingness of drivers to waive their Fourth Amendment rights against unreasonable searches and seizures. These doctrines, which determine the meaning of the Constitution from both text and by implication from background principles, were articulated long before the term "originalism" was introduced into the constitutional lexicon by the opening sentence of Professor Paul Brest's influential 1980 article, "The Misconceived Quest for the Original Understanding."
To see how this approach undercuts the case for birthright citizenship, let's start with the question of whether a child born of a tourist lawfully in the United States on a limited time visa becomes a U.S. citizen at birth. The case does not fall within the first sentence of the Fourteenth Amendment because the mother of that child is a not a resident of any state at all. Her sojourner status leaves her a resident of whatever place she was before she entered the United States. The child's residence follows its mother's, so the child is not a citizen of any state or of the United States either. That proposition was virtually universally held before the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment. Nothing in the text, structure, or history of the citizenship clause mandates a change in that meaning, which would only encourage opportunism on the part of parents who want their children to be American citizens. Conversely, it would be highly inappropriate for the United States to insist that any such child born in the United States becomes a citizen against the will of his or her parents.
The case for citizenship is made weaker if that sojourner has entered the U.S. illegally. No residency in any state is established. While it makes perfectly good sense to protect these persons from arbitrary arrest or arbitrary seizure of property under both the Due Process Clause and Equal Protection Clause, it makes no sense to give them additional rights that citizens receive to occupational freedom or the ability to acquire property under the Privileges or Immunities Clause. It is a general maxim of law that no person should be able to profit by his own wrong. That principle should be read sensibly into the Fourteenth Amendment to prevent the profit that parents hope to obtain for their children by illegally entering or remaining in the United States.
It may be unwise and improper to change this rule given that it has been respected in practice for 100 years or longer. Yet that argument is only half correct. It would be a tragedy of inexcusable proportions to strip citizenship from the children of illegal aliens on whom it has already been conferred. The dislocations that would result are utterly unacceptable. But that argument does not apply going forward, where it can be made perfectly clear that the children of illegal aliens will not acquire citizenship status but are instead subject to the same immigration rules that govern their parents. At that point, there would be no odd separation between the fully protected status of the child and the utterly unprotected status of the parents.
Quite simply, the general principles of international law that reject birthright citizenship were not abrogated by the Fourteenth Amendment. To be sure, Congress could decide by statute to confer citizenship on the children of illegal aliens, just as it did with respect to Native Americans in 1924. But that is a tough policy decision; it is not a command of the citizenship clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.
This expert commentary from Richard Epstein dissects the shallow theology behind the new strain of socialism that makes the unfounded claim that capitalism and private markets make us "unfree." With today's "New Socialists" calling for universal healthcare, price controls, free college tuition, and a basic universal income, this is an urgent read for any American who cares about preserving liberty for the next generation.

Duabi, Jan. 18 (TNS): Right-arm pacer Hasan Ali wins the International Cricket Council (ICC) Emerging Cricketer of the Year award for 2017 on Thursday.
Hasan, who finished the year as the number one bowler in the ICC ODI rankings for bowlers, bagged the reward for his astonishing performance in 2017 Champions Trophy, where he claimed 13 wickets and played an instrumental role in team's success.
The Men in Green's Champions Trophy triumph, where they defeated arch-rivals India by 180 runs in the final, was named as the moment of the year.
India captain Virat Kohli was named the ODI Cricketer of the Year for his brilliant performances in the 50-over format, whereas Australia's skipper Steve Smith, who guided his team to a thumping 4-0 win over England in the recently concluded Ashes series, was named Test Cricketer of the Year.
Afghanistan 19-year-old leg-spinner Rashid Khan, who had an outstanding year and guided his team to an emphatic win against West Indies on their home soil in a 50-over encounter, bagged the Associate Cricketer of the Year award, whereas India's leggie's Yuzvendra Chahal's six for 25 against England was named as the T20I Performance of the Year.
Former South African first-class cricketer Marais Erasmus was being named Umpire of the Year.
Two Pakistanis — young Babar Azam and Hasan — also managed to grab a spot in the Men's ODI Team of the Year which is captained by Kohli, whereas no player from the Sarfraz Ahmed-led unit managed to cement his place in the Test Team of the Year.

Functional characterization of DUF642 genes in Arabidopsis thaliana
- Author / Creator
- Khan, Shanjida
DOMAIN OF UNKNOWN FUNCTION 642, (DUF642), is an uncharacterized protein family in the Pfam database, a large collection of protein families. In Arabidopsis thaliana there are 10 proteins that contain DUF642 domains. DUF642 appears to be specific to plants and is present in gymnosperms, monocots and dicots. The present study was designed to investigate the biochemical function and physiological role of two Arabidopsis DUF642 genes, AT5G25460 (DGR2) and AT5G11420 (DUFB). The three dimensional structures of DGR2 and DUFB proteins were predicted by I-TASSER and validated by Ramachandran plot using RAMPAGE Server. Structural models indicated that DGR2 and DUFB showed similarity to carbohydrate binding proteins with hydrolase and carbon-oxygen lyase activity, respectively. Translation fusions with reporter genes showed a punctate pattern of subcellular localization within the cytoplasm, which did not co-localize with the Sec21 Golgi marker but was immediately adjacent to each other, suggesting DGR2 localizes to the trans-Golgi network. DGR2 and DUFB were expressed heterologously in E. coli but sufficient purified proteins could not be obtained for downstream functional assays. Although both DGR2 and DUFB have high sequence similarity (93.4% nucleotide identity), and were presumed to be paralogs, they were expressed in complementary spatial domains according to expression patterns of reporter genes and qRT-PCR analysis. GUS reporter fusions of DGR2 were expressed in the root apex and the later stages of lateral root primordial (LRP) where cells are dividing and elongating whereas DUFB was expressed in the elongating tissues of roots and not in LRP. Both genes were responsive to auxin identified by reporter gene assay where promoter region sequences of DGR2 and DUFB were fused to the GUS gene. T-DNA insertion mutants (Salk_042864 for DGR2 and Salk_094931 for DUFB), RNAi, and DGR2 and DUFB overexpressing plants showed no morphological differences from wild-type phenotypes, therefore, metabolic profiling of these mutant plants was performed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry to reveal metabotypes. The results suggested that DGR2 and DUFB both affected TCA cycle intermediates and were involved in the carbohydrate metabolism. In addition to DGR2 and DUFB characterization in Arabidopsis, a portion of Ph.D. research work included metabolic profiling of developing flax seeds by GC/MS. In summary, we have generated predicted 3D models of DGR2 and DUFB. Subcellular localization revealed that DGR2 possibly localizes to the trans-Golgi network. We speculated that DGR2 is required for cell elongation and division whereas DUFB is required for cell elongation in Arabidopsis. Metabolite profiling of the Arabidopsis T-DNA insertion mutants, RNAi and overexpression plants of DGR2 and DUFB reveals metabolic phenotypes previously unidentified and illustrate perturbation of TCA cycle. Both proteins may influence growth by modifying probably pectin thereby perturbed primary metabolic processes. Both genes are expressed E. coli but failed to obtain purified proteins. The metabolic profiling of developing flax seeds by GC/MS identified unique metabolites and the pathways perturbation during different stages of flax seed development.

August's Duck of the Month
My Name was Aflack
Momma Duck was planning to write about Lady Waddletail this month when a tragedy happened. Since I'm now in duck heaven, I'm not too sure if it's a tragedy but it was to Momma Duck.
My name was Aflack and I was Momma Duck's first duck child.
Two years ago the neighbors brought me over to Momma & Poppa's home in a box with a brother and sister. A week later she brought another sister named Winchester. I remember the other brother and sister but they went to a friend whose duck needed company. The other three ducks the neighbors brought weren't really my brother and sisters because we are different breeds but we all came out of the incubator at the same time … except Winchester, who as always, came along in her own time. Winchester is still with Momma and Poppa Duck and is their favorite. Just don't tell the other ducks or they might get jealous.
I was with Momma Duck until a couple days ago. Momma Duck was sitting on the ground feeding us treats. I had been climbing in her lap to get all those little pieces of dry cat food … yum! I turned away from her and after walking about two feet, my right side collapsed. Momma Duck thought it was my leg and reached to help. At that time, my neck drooped over. Momma Duck told me to get up. I tried to lift my head I then just drooped over and went to duck heaven. I'll miss the goodies. My very favorites were tomatoes, frozen peas and watermelon. The others won't know for some time but the treats in duck heaven taste even better except that Momma Duck isn't here to feed them to me yet.
Aflack was a Pekin duck who was well loved by her Momma & Poppa Duck. She will truly be missed. Her little friend Winchester misses her and does look for her. It is a very sad thing to see. They were BFFs and the forever ended far too soon for Winchester.
Pekin ducks are the most common domesticated duck and the one most commonly thought of when people mention a duck. The famous Aflac of TV commercials is a Pekin duck. The Pekin has been raised as a farm duck since at least 2500 BC in the area of Beijing, formerly known as Pekin China. They were introduced to America around the 1870s. I read that a fellow saw the Pekin duck in Beijing, hatched 13 eggs under a chicken and had a friend bring them to America for him with the stipulation that the gentleman taking the ducks would get half the flock. It is a good thing since the half hatched out by the first gentleman never made it further than someone's dinner plate. The other man took care of his ducks and he had the first Pekin flock in the US. The Pekin are most commonly used as a meat duck. However, the are wonderful pets who can be friends with their humans.
Pekin ducks begin their life as little yellow ducklings with bright orange legs and bills. As they get older they turn white with orange legs and bills. Laying females will get lighter bills and legs as they get older. The bill will sometimes get quite dark with what I call "freckles." The freckle patterns do help me figure our who's who in the duck pens.

You can outsource the news to other people. You can log in to Twitter at the end of the day and scan your feed, preferably a Twitter list, and run through the most important stories of the day. You can do the same with any RSS feed, for that matter.
Or you can consume slow media. Instead of getting the news from the people you follow, you can catch up with the latest via newspapers or newsletter. Heard of the Skimm?
The advantage to waiting is that all the stories have already been fact-checked for accuracy so you won't waste time with any rumors.
The Internet never ends. You'll be behind no matter how often you try to keep up. But you do get rewarded for staying on top of the feeds and being one of the contributors. This is how Twitter users gain new followers.
But at the end of the day, people want insight. They care less about what happened and more about why it's important and what the implications are, particularly for them.
Let other people obsess with breaking news. Catch it only if you can. Instantness and small talk is no substitute for the deeper analysis that follows.

Show and Heal knows all children are created equal. Show and Heal has a holistic commitment to build child and community resilience through Education, Inclusion, Advocacy. Show and Heal is a collaborative effort of like-minded individuals and organizations who understand the fundamental interconnectedness of all human beings. Show and Heal commits to building child and community resilience through: 1. Education: Facilitation of extra-curricular and digital programming focused on self-care to promote physical, emotional, mental, and social health. 2. Inclusion: Community collaborations for peaceful, harmonious activities (e.g. Virtual Diversity Day) and empathy seminars which serve to bridge the gaps between diverse populations, contributing to social transformation. 3.

Since our inception in 2016, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging has been the foundation of Show and Heal. Everyone we work with, from our team, partners, to educators and youth, represent the beautiful cultural mosaic of our society.
Defeating false truths and eliminating stigmas were the driving forces behind Show and Heal's first public awareness campaign on YouTube in 2016. Interviews with youth from stereotyped backgrounds were conducted and uploaded.
In the Fall of 2018, Show and Heal evolved into an in-person, after-school program called Self-Care 101. Show and Heal provides a safe space face-to-face and online that allows students to discover that they are more alike than different, can feel good about themselves, build each other up, and focus on promoting love over hate.
For our new Empathy and Empowerment Initiative, we would like to invite, promote, and nurture an eclectic group that includes youth of all life experiences and backgrounds.
We'll work with your schedule.

We enable equal access to the global market
We value unique design
We activate trendsetters
We cherish craftsmanship
Our passion is rightful ownership
and generational wealth
The Lydia Approach
Equal access to the global market
For several communities in the world, economic activity and growth have stagnated because they are limited to domestic trade.
The global marketplace seems inaccessible and the international trade system places their manufacturers at a distance by favouring powerful others. Manufacturers at a distance from the global market need reliable trade agents who defend their interests and create a strategic market position for them.
Lydia Trade takes on the role to represent these manufacturers. This representation is based on association, identifying with and acting on behalf of the manufacturer and their community. As an associated trade agent Lydia Trade enables manufacturers to establish and expand their brand on the global market and to distinguish themselves through excellent products with intentional design. As a result, wealth will be generated for their communities benefitting present and future generations.
The products we bring from these manufacturers will not only be excellent and unique, but will also carry a story of hope and future. You can read more about us at the page "Who we are".
The services we provide
Trade Agency
In the early days, trade agents travelled to strategic places at important trading routes to promote and sell products from their home country. Even though they moved far away from home, on the international market these trade agents acted on behalf of their community by representing and promoting their home trade. We believe this healthy principle needs to be brought back into international trading.
Therefore, we associate ourselves with you and your domestic trade to be the representative you need for strategic positioning of your products on the global market. This means we take responsibility for your trade as if it were our own while applying the highest international standards.
Facilitate Webstores
From the start, international trade agents identified and carefully chose strategic places along the most important trading routes. A modern trading route that is most important now is the World Wide Web.
Online shopping is a phenomenon that is growing continually and its prospects remain extremely positive. We will help selling your products by identifying and approaching the right webstores on your behalf.
Product Innovation Support
For manufacturers at a distance from the global market it is important to have a trusted and capable representative inside that market who knows how to successfully sell their products. A representative who is well connected with the customers can keep a close eye on changes in customer preferences. We want to serve as an extension of your business and strategically position ourselves to identify the newest trends and developments.
We offer insight and knowledge how to improve your market position by intentional design and creating your own story. We will inform you on changes in customer behaviour and preferences so you can timely make the necessary adjustments. We will also do research on and observe changes in trends and technics so that you can stay ahead and we will support you with our advice.
The world has seen too many reoccurrences of human exploitation caused by producers of export products, it would be a delight if that gets replaced by positive stories. So, if your business contributes to the welfare and wellbeing of your land and community, your product carries a story that the world needs to hear.
It would be our pleasure to bring your products on the global market and tell the story behind these, inspiring customers to choose you and your products above others, building a legacy of fostering craftsmanship and growing the domestic economy.
We will use direct marketing and personalise your brand by encouraging customers to participate and interact. Additionally, we will use promotional channels, blogs, forums and social media to create a voice for you and your brand. On a regular base, together we will review our activities and evaluate the impact.
African Magic!
It is very interesting to observe how fast Africa is developing. Africa is rediscovering its own DNA, its original design. We as Lydia Trade applause this and welcome the African Magic to arise!
Attached a very interesting article from TrendWatching about Africa about the African Magic, recommended read!

Petscop Analysis
Games as Transmedia Methods of Storytelling
I heard about Petscop from a Game Theory video. The subtitle for the video was, "The Scariest Game You'll Never Play." And I thought instantly, that's bullshit, click-bait. I've deleted tons of crappy emails or scrolled while rolling my eyes past tons of comments of what they call "creepy pasta," that is, cut-and-pasted, internet-circulated horror stories, often having to do with urban legends about haunted video games.
But Game Theory does not let me down. Petscop is not just another pointless creepy pasta. What I witnessed is basically a new kind of storytelling, involving a blending of the arts of film-making and game design. Petscop may seem random, pointless, and kind of baffling, but the creator of the game is clearly making an artistic statement, using the game to prompt discussion and raise awareness on an issue that is obviously very important to him.
So what IS Petscop?
Petscop is a game, for the first PlayStation, and also a series of YouTube videos (10 so far, as of this writing). What's neat is that the development company isn't real, and the person making the gameplay videos claims he "found" the game. But the video maker, who gave himself the name "Paul" in the game, seems to have too much of an insider's knowledge of the game. Very little surprises Paul, and he seems to know what to do a little too easily. Maybe he's just lucky. Or maybe he simply cut out the footage of numerous failures and setbacks. But it seems most likely that this "Paul" playing the game in the videos is the person who made the game.
Petscop starts off by showing us the "gift plane," a place with bright colors, and a series of rooms have puzzles in them that the player can solve to capture small creatures, so it feels odd, but similar to a game like Pokémon or Monster Rancher. There is some odd texts on signs, and some dead ends, but the gift plane doesn't seem that different from many "rated E for Everyone" kid's games.
Then you get down to a basement level, where everything is dark. This is called the "Newmaker plane." I seriously recommend that someone watch all the videos for themselves, and then watch the Game Theoryvideo on the subject, or check out the Wikia page on the game for information about fan theories about what different parts of the game mean.
In the "Newmaker plane," we realize that this game is much darker than it originally seemed to be. It's about child abuse. Specifically the strange, tragic case of Candace Newmaker (born Candace Tiara Elmore), a girl who was tortured and killed during a strange ritual called "rebirthing." This was done by some so-called "therapists" (crack-pot cultists, to sane people) trying to use this bizarre ritual as a kind of therapy, to strengthen the non-existent bond between Candace and her adoptive mother, Jeanne Newmaker. Despite the fact that Jeanne showered Candace with gifts (note the recurring motif of gift-boxes and the repetition of the word "gift" in Petscop), Candace never really bonded with her adoptive mother, and would not let Jeanne hug or touch her. That is why Jeanne, exasperated, sought the help of these supposed "therapists," who claimed to be experts in helping adoptive parents bond with their adopted children. But they have very bad methods, and some very odd ideas about what is meant by "helping."
During this "therapy," Candace was wrapped in a blanket and held down by four adult women. She was told she had to fight to live and for air, and "therapists" ignored her screams or responded to them with taunts. When she died, they called her "quitter" and blamed her for giving up on life. The women responsible for Candace's death faced prison sentences of 16 years. In 2001. So, the release of the Petscop videos (starting in early spring of 2017) coincided with these women getting out of jail. Or it would have, if they hadn't actually gotten out early, one in 2008. Sounds like a slap on the wrist for killing a child! It makes sense that Petscop then is written because the author of this game/video series is sad, angry, and outraged about the incident.
What is remarkable is that, instead of depicting this tragedy outright, the player character in the video explores clues alluding to this incident symbolically. We see enough references to birth, the name "Newmaker," the word "quitter," and the way bad adoptive parents conceptualize adoption in a monstrously inhuman way, so we have enough clues to get the overall picture. But many of the details of the game/videos are a mystery. Some objects are censored with black boxes in the videos, for example. Some symbols and words in the game don't seem obviously connected to the Newmaker story. Will we ever know for certain what they are, or how they're connected? Will we ever understand for certain what the various names in the story mean? Petscop is not designed to make you feel comfortable or to feed you answers. It is designed to provoke discussion. The person who made this seems very, very aware of the fact that fan communities build up around the mysterious and unknown and dark aspects of certain games. They are using their "mysterious and spooky" creepy pasta aesthetics to get people talking about the Candace Newmaker incident and to get people interested in learning about it.
This is the kind of thing that really elevates video games as a storytelling medium. It makes an artistic statement that is subtle and provokes discussion. It's an intellectual challenge, but also an emotional journey into the soul of a very dark event.

Jónsi 'Boy Lilikoi'
The first the world heard of Sigur Rós was way back in 1997, by way of name drops from Radiohead, Chris Martin and Brad Pitt, the theme tune to a BBC1 wildlife show and a series of perfect majestic albums such as 'Takk' '()' and 'Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust.' By now the Icelandic duo have finally become embedded into the public consciousness.
And now with eight heartbreaking albums under their belt, Jónsi the lead singer of Sigur Rós has decided to go it alone for a while: 'Boy Lilikoi' is his debut solo single. It has all the sugar coated ingredients that have made Sigur Rós one of the finest bands in existence, but with the unique twist of Jonsi singing in English (Sigur Rós vocals are in their own made-up language).
As one YouTuber perfectly summarizes...'that was one of those pieces of music where you enjoy it so much you wished you lived in it'.
'Boy Lilikoi' is a free download from jonsi.com now, with an album to follow early 2010. Let your heart strings be pulled apart but not torn by pressing play below.
