Justice Reform
Justice Reform
Our jails are full of people charged with marijuana possession. Keeping these non-violent offenders in our jails costs the county, city, and taxpayers millions of dollars. There are several current reform proposals that I wish to support and advocate for on the municipal level.
I also want to work as a representative in the second largest city in the state for restoring voting rights to felons once their sentence has been completed. Working with state lawmakers and others, we can change the lives of many who have served their time and now wish to be an active, contributing member of society and our state.
There are many areas of justice reform that can bring progressive solutions for real change, and I am eager to work with the citizens of District 7 to make these a reality.
Giving New Opportunity
Giving New Opportunity
Advocating and working with Shelby County & the State Of Tennessee for changes in processes/reissuing of drivers licenses to people who simply can't afford to have them reinstated after having them suspended. Some great things already happening in the right direction! Example: The Memphis City Council hosted an event that gave about 600 Memphians the chance to get back on the road legally with reinstated driver's licenses.
As a part of the city council's MLK50 initiative, the council allocated about $600,000 for the Driver's License Reinstatement and Diversion Amnesty program. Through the program, Memphis drivers in the Drive-while-you-pay program, as well as those with suspended and cancelled licenses, will receive amnesty. We need an advocate on city council that will press for more money for these types of things that can change people's lives.
A New Era for Code Enforcement
A New Era for Code Enforcement
I want to propose that Code Enforcement become its own stand-alone city division so that its operations and funding can be reformed to be more effective in fighting blight and other neighborhood concerns.
Right now, Code Enforcement is under the Public Works division. Public Works tries hard to meet the needs of the citizens, but I believe that Code Enforcement isn't getting the attention or resources it needs. It isn't staffed or funded as it should be, or as effective as it could be as a stand-alone division.
Code Enforcement works hard, but leaders/representatives of our districts need to follow up and help put another set of eyes on issues reported to 311 and Code Enforcement. Let's fight blight, hold landowners and building owners accountable, and work together to help clean up our neighborhoods.
Restoring Police & Fire Benefits
Restoring Police & Fire Benefits
Most solutions proposed to bring underfunded pension plans back into balance have involved freezing the benefits for present workers while moving new hires to more viable plans. As well, cost of living adjustments were reduced or eliminated altogether. But the Memphis pension plan was just too far gone for those remedies to work. It lost nearly 20 percent of its investments during the Great Recession, and the rebound in stocks hasn't closed the gap. In 2008, the plan showed a surplus, but a year later it was short by 20 percent.
Members of the two public safety unions have started petitioning to have voters make the choice at the polls. The unions say the proceeds from the city sales tax increase — from 2.25 percent to 2.75 percent — would be used to restore and maintain the health care benefits to levels they were in July 2014 and to restore and maintain the pension benefits.
We need to ensure those who put their lives on the line to keep us safe have the best benefits and competitive pay.
Neighborhood Preservation & History
Neighborhood Preservation & History
I have talked with many community organizations, and they say that they get pushback from city council on historical overlays. I am an advocate for this and will be a friend to anyone who comes to City Hall that wants to have a historical overlay in their area. As someone who has served on a community development corporation board as president for two years in a historical neighborhood, who has purchased and renovated and currently lives in a c. 1859 home, I understand the significance and the importance of historical overlays and protecting our rich Memphis heritage in history.
Developers should always seek community and neighborhood feedback on projects that are proposed. Once they have input from those it will affect, they should review their proposal and try to SINCERELY work with businesses and residents alike. Take the feedback they get and then alter their plans to address these concerns. Once complete, they should be given back to the citizens, business, and stakeholders via another public meeting for feedback and overall consensus of approval. Another opportunity we have is we need to make developments are "done with heart". People may not be able to afford some types of development and we should not force them out of their homes just to build a shiny new building. Let's work with them and come up with a compromise that is good for everyone, even if it means spending a little money. After all, developers receive tax breaks from the citizens and businesses of this city... people they might be affecting directly. I think smart development would incorporate a neighborhood where you can live in a new development, but also have housing options that are nice, up to code, and well-maintained for those less fortunate.
Restoring Trust & Protecting Oversight - Police Department
Restoring Trust & Protecting Oversight - Police Department
I want to advocate against state legislation that has recently come to light that would scale back police oversight. We need to build bridges between our police department and our communities. We need to hold our police department accountable and they need to hear the concerns and issues from the citizens as much as we need to hear from them on programs, their concerns, and issues.
Most of all, We need to ensure concerns from citizens are heard, acted on, and then measured - accountability & trust is everything.
Technology & Efficiency
Technology & Efficiency
We need to invest in technology that will improve efficiency within our city departments, divisions, and elsewhere.
In recent conversations with Memphis police officers and other City Hall employees, I have been told that our technology is out dated and not efficient. Efficiency = Money = Cost. And all of this is paid for by OUR TAX DOLLARS.
We need to insure that we have up to date methods and technology to help city employees do their job accurately and efficiently. The cost of updating would be significant, but would save money in the long run.
LGBT Advocacy
LGBT Advocacy
As a member of the LGBT community, I wish to propose protections for LGBT people who work at any employer who operates within the City of Memphis.
We also need to invest on a municipal level into LGBT homeless shelters. Our city faces a major issue where LGBT youth are banned from their homes and families. This often results in mental health concerns, resorting to drugs/alcohol, and sadly... suicide. We can help prevent this. We can allocate funds and invest in our youth by giving them a safe place and work with local colleges, tech schools, and community organizations to ensure they have an opportunity to succeed and get on their feet.
Tax Breaks & Incentive Reform
Tax Breaks & Incentive Reform
Major reform is needed in our PILOT programs and where we are focusing their moneys in our city. So many areas of our city have been left in the dark and I want to shine a new light on them. Once we reform these tax breaks and incentives, we need to study each project closer and then weigh it all. Then, hold accountable those who don't hold up their commitment. Each request should be considered as follows:
Are the request specific?
Are they measurable?
Are they assignable?
Are they relevant?
Are they time based?
I want to be an advocate that goes to city, county, state, and even federal economic development events and opportunities to advocate for my district and bring jobs back into our corner of the world. Right now, current representation doesn't even show up to community meetings when invited. They don't hear the stories of struggling people within their district or their issues with unemployment or low wages. We do not have representation that invites new business/industry to our district for a tour or site-seeing trip that would showcase the great opportunities right here in District 7. I want to be that advocate.
Helping Families & Improving Education Access
Helping Families & Improving Education Access
I want to work on developing a program where high school students and college students can utilize MATA to get to/from school.
As an only child to a single parent, my mom sometimes was not able to take me to school. Sometimes when she did, she was late for work. Parents shouldn't have to worry about making sure their kids get to school on time and safely. Parents sometimes work two or three jobs to make sure their kids have the best, and we need to help them as a city.
We need to ensure that these hard-working families in our neighborhoods and their kids have stress free access to better themselves and get a good education. I recently proposed this idea to a Shelby County school commissioner at a town hall with Mickell Lowery and she said she believes anything is possible and she is a single mother who said this is a good idea. But one thing we both agreed on was we need to fix our broken bus routes and system to make sure they are more effective and on time and accessible to areas that need it most.
This program is possible, and we can make it happen.
Supporting Minority Businesses
Supporting Minority Businesses
I want to strive to increase bids that the city of Memphis gives to our minority owned businesses. We have made great progress in this area as a city, but I feel we have some missed opportunities.
I also want to advocate against outsourcing big Memphis projects to out-of-town architects and developers. We need to give our local architects and investors a chance to build within their city.
More Heart for the Homeless
More Heart for the Homeless
As someone who has lived near the Union Mission for nearly four years, I can say I have met some of the nicest, sweetest people who don't have a place to call home. They walk by my home everyday and it's sad that we don't do better to help lift these people up and give them a better opportunity.
We need to invest on a municipal level into more shelters & better job programs and advocate a partnership with local tech schools, colleges, and businesses to help get our homeless on their feet.
Home Ownership & Neighborhood Revitalization
Home Ownership & Neighborhood Revitalization
I think we should, as a city, invest in community development organizations and community programs that aim at increasing homeownership. Home ownership lowers crime, gives people pride, and is favorably viewed by business and industry when they are scouting to open or locate in a particular area. It also helps neighborhoods and citizens protect their neighborhoods from out-of-town developers who grab homes, flip, and raise prices where Memphian can't afford them.
Crime is one of the biggest challenges we face in our city. Our police department is understaffed and over-worked. Crime will never be under control until we make sure we are fully staffed and our officers are able to have a work/life balance so that they are at their best while on the job. I will fight to make sure that we continue our "Best In Blue" campaign to recruit the finest officers. Competitive pay and benefits will help make Memphis a place where people will want to come to work and will do the work with pride.
Crime also needs to be met with accurate data reporting. We need to ensure that we are receiving and categorizing crimes properly. I want to work closely with our police department to ensure this and work closely with oversight committees.
Technology will also have a big part in helping us fight crime. I am a big advocate for "gunshot location technology". This technology detects gunshots by "listening" and can be installed on all telephone poles or cell phone towers in areas that gun fire/crime is rampant. Once heard, it sends a signal instantly to the police department.
I also want to advocate for our neighborhood watch programs throughout our city to form more of them and support those that already exist. There are several ways and technologies that can help these organizations be more effective. You can be assured I will support these causes and any ideas they may have to help make their communities safer.
Crime reduction really starts at home. Making sure families can be there to help raise and be there for their children. Bringing good paying jobs to Memphis so that parents don't have to work two or three jobs will have a positive effect on our children and the paths they choose. Summer job programs and activities also are very important to deterring crime and I will support funding to make sure we have more of them in our city.
Infrastructure: Utility Bills & MGLW
Infrastructure: Utility Bills & MGLW
One issue we face being brought to city hall is MLGW's request to increase rates to Memphians due to aging infrastructure & systems. While we have been lucky to not see many increases from MLGW over the years, is asking the tax payers to foot the bill the right thing to do? Here are my thoughts:
Cell phone companies that are now 20 years old or more have to deal with aging towers, increase cost in operations, and much more. Yet, we see our cell phone bills & plans decreasing in cost year by year due to them being proactive and creative in their solutions to keep cost low and delivery a quality product.
It seems to me people weren't asking the right questions to MLGW years ago, and even now. Maybe if we would have reviewed how to save Memphians money 4, 5 even 10 year ago, before this "dire need" of an increase came about, we could have been a step ahead and made the necessary moves to save money NOW and not need ask Memphians to foot the bill. That's the problem, we are being reactive instead of proactive. If we knew the system and infrastructure and cost were going to go up, why didn't we look at alternatives and GREEN energy solutions years ago? It's time. I want to be a councilman for the people who will ask the right questions and come up with creative, progressive solutions. (See my Facebook post on green energy water propellers we could harness from the river!)

This is an old revision of the document!
Tasks can be set to "come back" or recur after a period of time. This can be used to schedule regular task or events. For example:
The Recurrence field is the most complex in ToDoList because the single setting includes many parameters.
If a task only occurs once, it is not recurring - it does not repeat. Otherwise, tasks can repeat daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly. A weekly task can occur on the same day of every week, or for example every Tuesday and Thursday. A Monthly task might occur on the 12th of every month, or on the third Tuesday of alternate months. ToDoList is *extremely* versatile in this regard.
See the Recurrence Options Page to define how the selected task(s) will re-occur.

Indicative of the robust health of the nonfiction film genre, two outstanding documentary film festivals — the Newburyport Documentary Film Festival (Sept. 13-15) and the Camden International Film Festival (Sept. 12-15), in Maine — are taking place this weekend.
It's a 40-minute drive from Boston to the quaint town of Newburyport, in itself an appealing place for a weekend getaway, with its rich history (founded in 1635) and proximity to Plum Island. Now in its 14th season, the festival offers a lineup of 25 features and shorts, with almost all filmmakers attending Q&As.
Bestor Cram and Mike Majoros's "The Last American Colony" (Sept. 15, 11:45 a.m., Firehouse Center for the Arts,) opens with clips of President Trump in Puerto Rico tossing rolls of paper towels to survivors of Hurricane Maria in 2018 and of him making fun of the Spanish pronunciation of the island's name. These presidential lowlights as much as the disaster itself are reminders of the unusual status of the inhabitants of this "unincorporated territory": They are quasi-citizens, who have no representation in Congress and cannot vote for president . In effect, argues the film, they are subjects of an imperial power.
The film examines this situation from the point of view of Puerto Rican revolutionary Juan Segarra. A product of Phillips Academy, in Andover, and Harvard, he decided to fight for the independence of his people. Segarra helped found the pro-independence group Los Macheteros (the Cane Cutters), whose activities between the late '70s and early '80s included a multi-million-dollar Welles Fargo heist in Connecticut and the destruction of US military planes in San Juan. Hunted down by the FBI, he was captured, sentenced to 55 years in prison, and, in 1999, pardoned by President Clinton.
Interviewed by Cram and Majoros, Segarra today is sardonic and affable and an advocate of peaceful change. In one revealing scene, he attends his Phillips Andover 50th reunion — a former armed revolutionary schmoozing with classmates who pursued careers as lawyers and financiers.
You don't have to go to Puerto Rico to find obstruction of democratic principles, as seen in Michael Kasino's "Rigged: The Voter Suppression Playbook" (Sept. 15, 10 a.m., Newburyport Screening Room). It examines in a series of 10 chapters the Republican strategy to undermine the electoral process and ensure their hegemony, beginning in 2008 and culminating in 2016 with the election of Donald Trump.
Among the tactics employed are gerrymandering and voter suppression. Outlining the process with concision and clarity, the film lends credence to its argument by interviewing former Republican strategists who have put patriotism over party.
Not all films in the festival involve politics. Jeanie Bryson's "Sing You a Brand New Song: The Words and Music of Coleman Mellett" (Sept. 15 , 5:15 p.m., Firehouse Center for the Arts ) tells a heartbreaking story of a personal tragedy that was also a sad loss for the music world.
In 2009, 34-year-old Coleman Mellett, a guitarist for Chuck Mangione and a rising star, died in a plane crash en route to a concert. He left behind unfinished tracks for a debut album. Bryson, Mellett's widow, shows how friends and colleagues undertook the challenge of transforming the unfinished material into the fulfillment of Mellett's dream. His music is joyous and subtle — as one interviewee puts it, a combination of James Taylor (who's seen in the studio helping to record one of the numbers) and Carole King — and inspired by his love for his wife.
Farther north, a 3½-hour drive from Boston, the Camden International Film Festival, now celebrating its 15th edition, boasts 38 features, 51 short films, and 17 virtual-reality and immersive experiences from more than 35 countries.
Many of the films investigate the plight of those victimized by greed, inhumanity, and the despoliation of the environment. Some of these victims are perceptible only to a gifted few. Or so argues an unusual look at the environmental movement in Iceland, Sara Dosa's "The Seer and the Unseen" (Sept. 15, 3 p.m., Strand Theatre, Rockland, Maine; a Q&A with the filmmaker follows the screening). Ragga Jónsdóttir, a sweet-natured grandmother, can see and communicate with the invisible beings — elves, dwarfs, sprites, and trolls — who, according to Icelandic folklore and widespread belief, inhabit the spectacular volcanic landscape.
A crisis arises when a proposed highway threatens to destroy part of a natural preserve where these creatures dwell. In a sequence demonstrating one difference between Iceland and the United States, a crew with a giant crane laboriously moves out of the way of the construction a monolithic boulder that Jónsdóttir claims to be an "Elf chapel."
In David Hambridge's intimate and affecting "Kifaru" (Sept 15, 7:30 p.m., Camden Opera House) another legendary species, but this one flesh and blood, faces extinction, despite the dedicated efforts of the staff at a Kenyan nature preserve.
Sudan, the last male northern white rhinoceros in the world, died of old age in 2018, at 45, a passage widely covered in the international news media. Hambridge shares the final months of Sudan's life and also looks at the lives of his hard-working caretakers who spend most of the year away from their families to lovingly tend to Sudan and the species' two remaining females. It's a job that, as one of them comments, doesn't pay much and earns little respect in Kenya.
Poachers have been responsible for the near-extinction. Rhino horns are worth their weight in gold to dealers, and for people who earn a dollar a day it's a temptation hard to resist. The film ends on both a note of hope, as scientists plan to use genetic material from Sudan to resurrect the species, and a note of dismay, as China lifts its ban on the importation of rhinoceros horns.

La Mère Brazier **
12 rue Royale - 69001 Lyon 1er
La Mère Brazier was founded in 1921 by Eugénie Brazier, one of the most famous "Mères Lyonnaises" (Lyon's legendary female chefs). Politicians and well-known figures flocked to this local institution for more than half a century, even before it was taken over in 2008 by Mathieu Viannay, who was awarded the title 'Meilleur Ouvrier de France' in 2004. He has since transformed its cuisine with a delicate touch and respect for tradition.
La Mère Brazier is today an internationally renowned local institution, which has received two stars in the Michelin Guide since 2009 (barely a year after Mathieu Viannay took the reins).
And the spirit of Mère Brazier remains in the kitchen. Chef Mathieu Viannay, who likes clean, stylish lines, works with an intuitive approach: "I think about ingredients according to the season and pick them from my memory of tastes. It then all comes together in my mind".
The famous 'poularde demi-deuil' (chicken stuffed with truffles) is on the menu, but the Chef does not hesitate to vary the recipe when truffle season is over. It then becomes Bresse chicken and lobster, steamed in a cocotte and served with a vegetable stew and jus.
Among the many mouth-watering dishes on the menu, these ones caught our eye: Pan-fried Foie Gras and Artichoke N°11; Sea urchin, Carabineros shrimp and Ossetra caviar, on Fresh Baguette with Herb Butter; Gilt-Head Bream with Grey Shrimp Butter, Multi-colour Cauliflower and Green Apple; or the famous Bresse Chicken and Blue Lobster in Two Servings. For dessert, we recommend the Grand Marnier Soufflé or a Praline Chou bun (similar to a Paris-Brest).
The restaurant can welcome up to 60 diners, from Monday to Friday.
Collector's original visuals and voice have made it a big hit in Lyon. It offers locals a different view of their city: more modern, more urban, and even a little offbeat. In just a few years, this guide has become the repertoire of "places to be". It opens doors to somewhat secret worlds – just the way we like them in Lyon.list Know more about Collector

Whether a woman is genetically inclined to produce less breast milk than she needs for her baby, or her diet interferes with her ability to produce enough breast milk, there are herbal options that are safe for mommy and baby to provide the boost mommy needs to feed her baby naturally and have that wonderful bonding experience that only she can share with her young.
There are many safe herbs out there that can aide in producing more breast milk in a woman's body, and with proper doctor notification (you should always alert your doctor to any medications and herbs you are taking if you are going to be pregnant or are breastfeeding) many women can safely and effectively produce more breast milk naturally.
Women who may have issues with breast feeding commonly are women who breast feed on one side only, who don't allow their infants to latch on, women who wean their children too early or don't allow them to suckle long enough, or women with poor diets in their own systems. Every woman should have the ability to feed their own child, and even low lactation should be sufficient to feed a growing child. However, women who don't have the time or energy to breast feed for long periods of time to allow their infant to get enough to eat or women with weak milk flow may benefit from herbs in their diet to increase milk production and flow.
A healthy herb for mommy and baby is Fennel. Fennel increases milk production and also aides in digestion and gas, helping a colicky baby when it drinks milk enriched with Fennel. Baby gets enough to eat and mommy gets to sleep at night because baby is not wailing all night long from colic.
Fenugreek is a well-known lactation aide that works quickly and effectively in helping women produce more milk. It also is an antibiotic so it keeps mommy and baby healthy from infections and viruses.
Lactation teas, such as Mother's Milk teas are available in most grocery stores and herbs like marshmallow, raspberry leaf, and nettle help produce more milk production in nursing women.
There are physical things a woman can do to produce more milk and replenish her milk supply quickly as well. The body automatically responds the rooting and sucking motion of an infant (which is why often when a nursing mom hears a baby cry she starts lactating) so allow your infant to root and nurse for longer periods of time. Allow your baby to "finish" on one breast before moving to the other, and don't allow one breast to be the only one for feeding. Alternate them both so they both get the proper stimulation to produce and maintain a higher milk flow. Allowing your baby to nurse even after they are full (like in their sleep, some babies "suckle") helps stimulate the milk ducts and replenish depleted milk sooner. Let your baby give your boobs a workout, so to speak.
It is very rare that a mother cannot produce enough milk to feed her baby, and breast size has nothing to do with a woman's ability to produce milk. If you are serious about producing more milk for your baby for whatever reason, consult your doctor to see if herbal options are right for you and your baby.

Reena Spaulings Fine Art
165 East Broadway, at Rutgers Street
Lower East Side
Through June 3
For his fourth solo exhibition at Reena Spaulings Fine Art, the British Conceptual painter Merlin Carpenter, a perennial malcontent, is settling a score with its owners, John Kelsey and Emily Sundblad, by tricking out their gallery to resemble one of the retail spaces of an institution he heartily detests: the Tate Modern in London.
The gallery's slightly elevated show space is blocked off with vaguely familiar dark-stained doors labeled "No Re-entry." Beyond them lies a fairly convincing, if scaled-down and semi-functioning, facsimile of the Tate Modern's cafe-bookstore, complete with low, square tables, black metal chairs and a bit of a banquette; a re-creation of the museum's memorably narrow counter area outfitted with paper cups, drinks and packaged food printed with the Tate brand. (Appropriate to Mr. Carpenter's view of the institution, much of it is rotting.) Also included are bright pink visitor comment cards and a large photomural that approximates the cafe's Thames River view.
A small bookstore area concentrates on Spaulings-specific items: books by the Bernadette Corporation (the collective that Mr. Kelsey helped found in 1994); postcards of paintings by Mr. Carpenter and, for the home, two pillowcases printed with pages of signatures from the gallery's sign-in book.
The motivation for "Tate Café" can be discovered in an 18-page interview-cum-press-release that Mr. Kelsey and Ms. Sundblad conducted with Mr. Carpenter. Alternately tedious, self-indulgent and insightful, it covers the misunderstandings and hurt feelings surrounding the dealers' appropriation of Mr. Carpenter's work for their contribution to "Pop Life," a 2009 exhibition at the Tate Modern (in which they participated as an artist named Reena Spaulings). One of the offending works is a pair of tights printed with phrases from Mr. Carpenter's graffiti paintings ("Die Collector Scum") that was exhibited in the Tate's cafe and is on display here.
This exercise in institutional critique as payback is all a bit hermetic and self-referential. But the cafe is a great place to sit and perhaps wade through the interview, savoring the public-private tension between the slightly mysterious labor-intensive environment and the attempted let's-talk-it-out transparency of the printed words.

Perhaps you've heard of the "Great Pacific Garbage Patch," a "plastic soup" of floating waste in the Pacific purportedly twice the size of the United States, but did you know that similar plastic pollution has been documented throughout the Great Lakes? Attorney General Eric Schneiderman and Assemblyman Robert Sweeney have recognized the threat that this pollution poses to human health, and have recently announced legislation that could speed significant changes in the plastics industry and stop the pollution at its source-your bathroom sink. Unlike in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, the culprit in the Great Lakes is not necessarily dumping, but rather the ubiquitous plastic abrasives found in hundreds of common personal care products. Known as "microbeads," these tiny plastic particles are found in everything from cosmetics to toothpaste. They get washed down the drain your bathroom sink, and float untreated through sewage treatment plants into lakes and streams. Once in the environment, they can accumulate and concentrate PCBs and other persistent toxic chemicals that are present in New York's waters as a legacy of the state's industrial past.
Experts fear that the microbeads and associated toxics might travel up the food chain to larger fish that humans catch and consume, posing potential health problems by virtue of plastic fibers and accumulated toxic chemicals.
The proposed bill, dubbed the "Microbead-free Waters Act" (Bill No. A08744), seeks to prohibit the manufacture, distribution and sale of personal cosmetic products containing microbeads. If passed into law, it could impose civil penalties of up to $2,500 for a first offense, and $5,000 for a second offense.
The legislation was crafted in part by the 5 Gyres Institute, an environmental group who has advocated for similar legislation in California, as well. The group envisions this proposed legislation to be the first of a series of legislative dominos in the United States and around the world.
To their credit, three top manufacturers, Proctor and Gamble, Unilever and Colgate-Palmolive have all previously made commitments to phase microbeads out of their personal care products within the next several years. However, if passed into law, the Microbead-free Waters Act would force all manufacturers with ties to New York to abandon microbeads. Since natural materials such as crushed walnut shells can be substituted for microbeads, it seems unlikely that the legislation would be a target for a legal challenge by industry.
What remains to be seen is the level of resources that the legislature would grant authorities to enforce this law, should it be passed. With cosmetics and personal care products entering New York State from around the globe, the potential targets for enforcement are numerous. Therefore, retailers, wholesalers, and manufacturers with a connection to New York State should follow this proposed legislation closely.

Are you saying gstreamer-python is in FC4test2 ?
Well, it is in Fedora Extras Development, which I assume will sometime fork off
into Fedora Extras 4. Fedora Extras Development _is_ enabled by default in
FC4test2, so "yum install gstreamer-python" works, and therefore I assumed it is
really a bug for FC4 Extras.

Requesting rebuild of current version in CVS (0.8.1-3) should fix this. Seems,
the previous rebuild for Rawhide has never made it and the binary in the
repository is still the copied FC3 binary.
During fixing x86_64 for FC3-extras I also fixed the the devel-version and
requested a rebuild of gstreamer-python; It failed:

Anyone any idea what's wrong there? It builds fine on mx x86_64 FC4T3 (but I
have not yet a mach with FC4T3 to look for missing BuildRequires). If no one has
a idea I'll probably look at it again next week.
All the "Could not write method..." and "Could not write function..." messages
during %build (see log) are scary at least, e.g.:

No way to convert HTML to text found.
That was with "sudo rpm -e elinks --nodeps", which breaks gstreamer-python's
"BuildRequires: links". The "ELinks: no such file or directory" error smells a
bit like it's from that area, too. Maybe it tries to load style sheets from the

Well, the FC-3 Version (nearly the same Spec) compiled fine in the build-system...
Well, FC3 != FC4, elinks-0.9.2-2.1 != elinks-0.10.3-1, and "strings

Great Asbury Park press article by John Oswald.
Call them irresistible
By JOHN H. OSWALD • STAFF WRITER • August 1, 2008
The calico crab was angry. It was in the basket at the end of the rake with its claws pointing skyward, looking for a finger to bite.
"See how feisty he is?" said "Bucktail" Bob Hopkins of West Allenhurst.
"I can tell you right now, without even touching him, he's no good."
No good?
According to Hopkins, if the crabs were energetic, they would be hard shelled and no good for striper fishing. It was just one of the secrets I would learn that evening.
So began the lesson.
Actually, it began several weeks earlier when Hook, Line & Sinker writer John Geiser told a tale of the pleasures of fishing for stripers on warm July evenings with calico crabs.
It sounded great.
I'm a big fan of warm July evenings and had fished with soft-shelled blue claws for stripers before.
While a bit expensive, they always seemed to work.
A guy I used to run into on the beach in Sea Bright fished almost exclusively with soft blue claws, claiming that to a striped bass, they tasted just like ice cream.
How he knew such information was never clear to me.
At any rate, it was July, there were stripers around, and all I needed was calico crabs.
Therein lies the problem. Fishing with calico crabs is not for the faint of heart. It requires some effort.
Nobody sells them. So to get them, you have to rake them. And that sounds like work to me.
Not only did I have to rake them, I had to find a rake, learn how to use it and know what to look for in a crab. All that was before you even went fishing.
It seemed like a complicated task for a simple mind such as mine.
First thing was to find the rake. Not too many places sell those either, and they aren't cheap once you locate one.
Before I made the big investment, I thought I'd take a suggestion from Bob Mathews at Fishermen's Den in Belmar who said a clam rake fitted with window screening over the basket would make a workable substitute.
So armed with my clam/crab rake contraption, I ventured into the surf at low tide in Bradley Beach — the only time you can rake crabs — in search of soft or shedding calicoes.
I waded out until the water was up to my waist, dropped the rake into the sand and dragged it backward toward shore with the long handle up over my shoulder. When I flipped the rake over, all I had was an empty basket and a slight pull in my lower back.
Several more passes produced a couple of crabs, all hard shelled, and I had torn the screening on my rake.
Undeterred, I returned the next day with a repaired rake and had much better luck. The rake worked and I got some crabs, but even better, I found a genuine crab rake.
David Schechner, a lifelong resident of Bradley Beach, happened to be watching me.
Turns out he raked crabs as a kid and sold them early in the morning to fishermen at Kelly's Bar in Neptune. He gave me a few pointers, such as raking parallel to the shore.
He also put me in touch with his cousin, Peter Lowy, who still had one of the rakes his family used many years ago.
This rake was the real deal, made in the 1930s with long, sharp steel tines and a wire basket. He was kind enough to lend me this heirloom as I continued my pursuit of calico crabs.
What I really needed now was someone who knew what they were doing. Not only was it necessary to rake the crabs, but to know if they were any good. They are often in different stages of the shed and some make better baits than others.
And that is how I came to know "Bucktail" Bob Hopkins, by way of an introduction from John Christenson of Scott's Bait and Tackle in Bradley Beach.
Hopkins is known for his skill bucktailing for bass in the surf.
However, in the last couple of years, he was looking for a new tactic to catch bass when things slowed down during the summer. That's when Brian Zimmerman, formerly of Steve's Bait and Tackle in Long Branch, suggested he try raking calico crabs.
"They are deadly this time of year," Hopkins said. "You'll catch bass when everybody else isn't even getting a bite."
Stripers are rooting around in the sand for them, attracted by the scent.
I met Hopkins at a location that must remain secret on pain of death. He had agreed to teach me how to rake crabs and try for some bass as long as I remained tight-lipped. He even kept his promise after I backed into his truck. He looked at me hoping I raked better than I drove.
After we inspected for damage, we headed to the beach, rakes in hand.
In addition to his rake, Hopkins brought a netted shoulder bag and a neoprene glove.
The bag was for the crabs we caught and the glove was for the crabs that bite — and that was most of them. He also wore surf shoes for protection from those underfoot.
The evening was perfect: Clear blue skies, low humidity and the tide was just hitting dead low. We set to work right away.
Hopkins waded into the little cove, set his rake into the sand and started pulling at a steady pace toward the beach. I did likewise just a few feet away. We were in luck and started turning up crabs in our rakes almost immediately.
This was where Hopkins' expertise really came into play.
Only soft, shedder, paperback and tinback calicoes work as bait. It's relatively easy to tell the soft, paperback and tinback crabs from the hard ones.
The real trick is in spotting the shedders.
"You have to look around the edges of the the claws and the body. When you see the dark purple color, they are getting ready to shed," Hopkins said.
When we came across a potential shedder, Hopkins grabbed the crab in his gloved hand and broke off the tip of the claw. If there was a soft shell underneath, we were in luck.
"Another indication that the crab is about to shed is that it is a little less active. Now that it's getting ready to shed, it's not as energetic as hard shell crabs " he said.
After about 40 minutes, we had about 10 crabs in the bag, a good mixture of soft, tinback, paperback and shedders. Hopkins said we were pretty lucky.
"I've raked for more than an hour sometimes with just a couple of crabs to show for it," he said.
He also said that he only takes as many as he's going to use for that night's fishing.
"They're only good for 48 hours. It's also important to protect this resource," he said. "I don't rake in the same area right away to give it time to recover. He also talked about the etiquette of raking, that if someone is already raking when he gets to a spot, he'll move on.
Time to fish
With the crabs collected, we moved on to the main event.
"I smell bass," Hopkins said.
Our rods were rigged with fishfinder rigs and 5/0 Gamagatsu baitholder hooks and two-ounce storm sinkers. Conditions dictate how much weight to use and the surf was a little high on this night.
"I keep the rod in my hands, not in a sand spike," Hopkins said. "When the fish hits, I can set the hook so the fish doesn't swallow the bait. This way I can avoid gut-hooking the fish."
Also, if the rod is unattended, when the strike comes, the rod may disappear into the surf.
And these fish do hit.
Hopkins rigged the crabs by first removing the claws and the apron on the underside of the body. He then wraps elastic thread from the back toward the front on a diagonal, five or six turns on each side and not too tightly. Wrapping the thread too tightly will distort the shape of the crab.
He then inserts the hook into the back edge of the crab under the thread. Hopkins noted that there are several ways to rig the crabs and that some anglers leave the claws intact and just pass the thread over the claws to keep them close to the body.
I tossed my first offering just about 30 yards off the beach into the breaking waves. The bait barely hit bottom before something was gnawing on it. The crabs, obviously, taste like ice cream to everything because this wasn't a bass.
My second crab was cast was further down the beach. The wait wasn't long. The fish hit the crab like it was picking up takeout at a drive through without stopping the car. It made a short, powerful run, stopped to get its breath then started again. After a couple of more brief bursts, the fish came to the beach. The bass was short but full of fight and quickly released.
"That was a bucket bait," Hopkins said. "You don't get to sit on the bucket before a
fish bites," he explained.
We then moved a little south to one of Hopkin's favorite spots close to a jetty. Before too long, he had landed and released two more bass and missed a third that leapt straight out of the surf.
"I'd put that one at 15 to 20 pounds," he said.
We called it a day when the light was just about gone. And a great day it was.
It turned out to be one of those memorable warm July evenings John Geiser wrote about. And Hopkins, a retired state worker, Vietnam vet and passionate fisherman, was an excellent and patient teacher. He also is a very nice guy with a great sense of humor.
I believe calico crabs work equally well on warm August evenings and I think I'll be raking again.
With his trusted rake, Bob Hopkins explains the strategies behind fishing for stripers with calico crabs. (STAFF PHOTOS: DOUG HOOD)

Tansy, Tanacetun Vulgare, medicinal seeds, 100 seeds per pack, Organic, Heirloom, GMO Free
100 Seeds Per Pack
Name: Tansy
Scientific Name: Tanacetum vulgare
Family: Aster
Tansy is a herbaceous perennial plant, often deemed as a weed, usually grows to 4 ft and features bright button-like yellow flowers on top of stiff stems. Requiring very little care, it's usually found in wildflower gardens.
Tansy has a long history of use. It was first recorded as being cultivated by the ancient Greeks for medicinal purposes; although most of its medicinal uses have been discredited, tansy is still a component of some medicines and is listed by the United States Pharmacopeia as a treatment for fevers, feverish colds, and jaundice.
Origination: Asia and temperate Europe
Height: 5ft
Hardiness: zones: USDA 3-9
Flower Color: Yellow
Maturity: 30-90 Days
Other Names: common tansy, bitter buttons, cow bitter, or golden buttons
Growing Instructions: Planting tansy is easy and requires little effort on your part. Tansy will want a very sunny location, and only real soil requirement is that it not be too damp. Once the threat of frost has passed, poke holes in the soil about ½ an inch deep and put in a few (2-3) seeds and gently cover with soil and lightly water. Take care not to over water; only really supplementing water once the top few inches of soil has dried.
Tansy is an eager spreader wherever it is grown, but it is such an aggressive reseeder in some climates that it is listed as a noxious weed. Growing tansy is prohibited in Colorado, Minnesota, Montana, Wyoming, and parts of the state of Washington, as well as the Alberta and British Columbia provinces in Canada.

Influence the gliding characteristics of your film with additives that optimize the external (tribological) slip behaviour.
External lubricants do not form any compounds with the polymer – they are conveyed to the surface by migration and create an invisible yet persistent 'lubricating film'. Fast-running processes are adversely affected by high coefficients of friction. We lower your coefficient of friction.
LUVOBATCH® also guarantees a smooth process where lubricants are concerned. This not only applies to your subsequent production operations but also to the creation and production of your personal lubricant formulation. The more precisely we know your application, the better we will also be able to optimize your demanding extrusion processes by selectively adapting the formulation.

For more than two decades, the Voices of Adult Learners reading has brought a diverse range of writers and experiences to the book festival. "We think it's really special, given the turmoil in Charlottesville over the last couple years," says Carol Coffey, director of Thomas Jefferson Adult and Career Education at PVCC. "We have this amazing international fabric that really brings us together, but a lot of these folks are very marginalized…and they don't have an opportunity to share their stories."
TJACE@PVCC offers GED, ESL, and other classes to adults throughout the region. Each year, its students (along with those from partners like Literacy Volunteers and the Albemarle-Charlottesville Regional Jail) are invited to submit essays for the contest. The winners get a $25 prize, are published in an anthology, and read at the festival.
"It's a really inspiring event," says Coffey, who adds that the anthology is also distributed in the community.
Here are some of this year's winning entries. —Laura Longhine
From rude to cool
By Majid Ghanei
I am a 20-year-old fellow who was born and raised in Denmark. I have lived my whole life in a section of Copenhagen called Nørrebro. Nørrebro is a multicultural neighborhood. My parents arrived in Denmark in 1997 as Iranian refugees with my two older sisters, and they sought asylum. I spent my whole life in a ghetto called Blagards Plads. The characteristic of this place is the high unemployment and crime rate. Danish politicians and the news frequently stigmatize this ghetto.
Unfortunately, this has a bad impact on some of the young boys. They create gangs for themselves to find safety and get the recognition they never get from society. These gangs deal drugs and commit violent crime, to earn money and to increase their territory. Some of the boys are 10-14 years old. They see older gangsters as role models because they drive in nice cars bought with drug money and they want to follow in the same way as their big brothers. They then decide to drop out of school after elementary school. All the parents of those people have lost control of their children for a while and they can't do anything, especially when they find out their boy is brought to the jail.
I grew up with those boys and many of them were my friends. I was such a rude boy when I was younger. However, I did not have any problems with the school compared to the others. But there still was a lot of bad energy in me. I used to hang out with bad friends in my free time, but I also focused on my schoolwork. Many of my friends had already given up school, and they just wanted to finish the mandatory school, so they could join the gang groups and make money as criminals.
My parents weren't happy that I was hanging out with those boys. Every day before I left home to hang out with the boys, I had to discuss it with my mum for a while. However, I was stubborn and really ignored her concerns. My teacher told my parents that my school work was dropping in quality. I was not doing my homework. During that period, I felt that I did not fit in the group with those boys. However, I continued to hang out with them. I was the only person in the group who did not smoke marijuana and was just watching them when they did.
One day everything in my life changed. My parents told me that I should either choose my friends or them, because I spent a lot of time with my friends and forgot all about my family. As a child I was in a dilemma, because those friends meant a lot to me.
After a week my friends told me that they have decided to not let me be a part of the group, because they thought I was a schoolboy and I should focus on my education. They told me that they don't want to break my future because of them.
After that speech, I decided to change my life in a better way and focused on my education. I graduated high school with one of the highest grade-point averages.
One day I read in the news that on my old friends got arrested by the police for a shooting. He got 10 years for that. I thought "Thank God for changing my life and for giving me a better life and a family who wanted the best for me"
Taking a chance
By Qin Zheng
My husband and I moved to Florida from China. I loved Florida, but my husband did not like Florida because of the hot weather. We thought about moving to Virginia because my husband's cousin lived there. At the time, I was pregnant so moving to Virginia was a big risk. We would need to start new jobs, get a new house, and find a hospital where my baby would be born.
We took a chance, and moved to Charlottesville, Virginia, in November 2013. We stayed in a hotel for a few days. My husband found a restaurant job and we moved to an apartment. We felt lucky that my husband found a job so quickly. He worked 13 hours in the kitchen every day and I worked part-time until my baby was born.
During this time, we had so many obstacles. We had problems with co-workers and bosses because we could not speak English very well. Also, working 13 hour days was very hard for my husband. We wanted to get better jobs, but our language barrier prevented us.
One day, a friend of mine told me about the Literacy Center. They have volunteers that meet with you one-on-one to teach you English. My husband and I were so excited to hear about this program. We needed this change because we needed better jobs and a better life.
We contacted the Literacy Center and a month later we got our own teachers. We were able to study and learn and put a lot of effort into speaking better English. As a result, my husband took the Commercial Driver's License class so he could become a truck driver. He recently passed the CDL test. I am so proud of him! I am working as a waitress and now I understand much more English from customers, coworkers, and my boss.
Last year, we bought a small house. Even though it is a small house, it is just enough for my family. We are not rich, but my whole family is together, and that means everything to me.
We are so appreciative of the Literacy Center. They are teaching us so that we have more opportunities in the future. I have learned that if we take a chance and work hard, our life can change for the better.
My Exciting Year
By Bushiri Salumu
I was seventeen when I dropped out of high school.
I was in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and because of crisis and war I was forced to leave. I had no choice but to seek some form of safety in a Zambian refugee camp. Life in the camp was difficult and filled with hardship. We refugees went for weeks without food and we felt like prisoners because we were not allowed to leave the camp. During my time in the camp, I began the process of seeking asylum because life there as a refugee was unbearable. After four years I was selected for resettlement to the United States as a refugee.
I arrived in the United States on October 17, 2012 in Charlottesville, Virginia. The journey to Charlottesville was long. I spoke no English when I arrived. After several months getting settled in the Charlottesville community, I began taking some English classes that the International Rescue Committee offered. It was by taking those classes that I was able to learn the English alphabet and simple greetings with my incredible teacher Heidi Gordon. She was my first teacher since I dropped out of school. In the beginning, the class was very hard. After three months in Heidi's class. I was transferred to take some classes at the Adult Learning Center. At the Adult Learning Center, I took some advanced English as Second Language (ESL) classes and some computer classes. However, I had to take a break from school in order to work so I could pay rent and buy a car. Still, I was determined to keep learning and adjusting to my new home.
In early 2017, I started a General Education Development (GED) program. I took three different classes for my GED program: social studies, mathematics, and science. I struggled greatly with the exams, as I had to try several times in order to pass them. The English exam was the greatest challenge for me. I worked with several tutors who I call my heroes because they helped me so much in passing my English exam. I failed my English exam six times, but on my seventh time I managed to pass it all thanks to the wonderful tutors who helped me. On December 4, 2018, I was able to get my GED diploma and I was very thrilled. I felt like all my hard work paid off.
There are three things that made my GED degree possible. The first was the guts to never give up on my goal. I have always loved learning but due to conflict and war I was unable to accomplish my high school diploma. However, I persevered through hard work because I knew it was not going to be easy to get my GED. Another thing that kept me moving was patience. I knew that it was going to take a long time for me to pass my classes and get my GED, so patience was the only thing that kept me moving. The last thing that kept me moving was communication. When I failed, I reached out to my teachers, tutors, and other people in my life to advise me on what I did wrong. It was through communication that I was able to get different ideas and strategies on how I could pass my tests.
It was because of those traits that I was able to get my GED. Just days after passing my GED exams, I achieved another important milestone. On December 14, 2018, I became a citizen of the United States of America. With so many of my goals finally met, I can say that it has been a very exciting year for me.
Thanks to My Daughter
By Miwako Rice
When my daughter was in preschool, she brought home a piece of paper with just a list of all her classmates' name on it. I didn't know what that meant so I just kept it.
On the Valentine's Day, my daughter came home with a bag full of gifts and treats from her classmates with her name on it. My daughter was happy with what she got, but she told me she was sad that she didn't have anything to share with her friends. I felt sorry to make her feel that way just because I didn't know what the list meant, and I didn't ask anyone about that. I need to do something. Since then, I've tried to volunteer at my daughter's school as much as I can to learn how American schools are like and understand what I need know for my daughter. By volunteering, I got to know the teachers, and became friends with some of the mothers who also volunteer.
Those experiences made me gain confidence with my life. If it was just me, I might not have tried hard to overcome my fear of making mistakes. But I really wanted to help my daughter enjoy her school and learn many things there. In the end I feel like my daughter helped me learn a lesson. Thanks to my daughter I also enjoy my days.

When is an encore not an encore? When it starts the programme, as Nicholas Milton explained after the orchestra had began unexpectedly with the "Trepak" from Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker suite. No one would be in the mood for an encore after the Pathetique symphony so let's have one now – and a second time for luck! Certainly the percussionists enjoyed it and they definitely needed a warm up for an exhausting evening.
Dr Milton has had a stellar career and his enthusiasm and attention to detail were picked up by a talented orchestra. Conducting mostly from memory he virtually demanded his troops to perform at their best in an exacting series of works. He has been Chief Conductor now for eighteen years while the orchestra has been going strong since 1965. How he has the time to be Chief Conductor of three other orchestras in Australia and Europe is difficult to guess.
Nigel Westlake is Willoughby Symphony Orchestra's Composer in Residence and is one of the best known contemporary Australian composers. "Shimmering Blue" was written as a birthday celebration for the WA Symphony Orchestra and as such is an effervescent jazzy piece. It featured fanfares for the brass and a versatile percussion including xylophone and bells and was all too short.
Sometimes a soloist seems to pervade the atmosphere with his character and this was the case with David Fung who made Schostakovich's Second Piano Concerto his own. The piece is more a Conversation than a Concerto and flows again with jazzy intonations although Russian influences are prominent. On the many occasions where the soloist and orchestra shared the themes there was no hint of imbalance and it is by no means an easy piece. David though was clearly enjoying himself and though the slow middle movement is more introspective, it was handled in an optimistic manner. It was easy to see how David has been the winner of many prestigious competitions and awards. After, the audience demanded more and the soloist gave us the old encore chestnut, "Sparks" by Moszkowski – I feel the modern trend for an encore from a soloist should be welcomed and, as in this case, an announcement of the piece's title even more so.
The title of the concert, "Passion" embraces the final work, Tchaikovsky's 6th symphony. Winston Churchill's famous quote as Russia being a "Riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma" could be applied to this work. The composer, for once, himself endorsed the nickname "Patetischky" but the Russian word is better translated as "Passionate". He also called the work a "Program Symphony" but what this means is controversial. Tchaikovsky's much discussed death soon after is perhaps best described as "Suicide by Person or Persons Unknown" but he was certainly a troubled sole due to his sexuality which he himself could not accept. However, had the composer lived for another twenty years, the work would have been revered without the implications of tragedy.
Nicholas Milton kindly explained the unusual orchestral configuration with first violin on the left and second on the right as being the best to interpret the composer's themes in which they often started with one instrument but were completed by the other. From the opening notes on the double basses to the famous main theme, the first movement runs the gamut of emotions. A subtle waltz-like second movement is in fact in 5/4 time ('Did Dave Brubeck hear it?' I wonder!). The third Allegro is probably the best known with a catchy march-like feel and an incredible performance by the tympani, handled with obvious euphoria by Louis Sharpe. The unusual structure is emphasised by the last movement which not only ends in a minor key but in obscurity with the conductor maintaining a silence of fifteen seconds before allowing applause. At the height of Stalin's regime, orchestras were ordered to transpose the last two movements in order to end on a triumphant beat. What heresy!
I mentioned the tympanist but the whole orchestra deserves praise for accuracy and interpretation in all three works, no doubt due in part to the unbridled enthusiasm of the conductor. The acoustics at Chatswood rose to the occasion and the programmers deserve an accolade.

I am honored by the great responsibility I have been given to serve as Nassau's next county executive and to pursue the goals I set out during the campaign — ending the culture of corruption and giving Nassau County a fresh start. I believe we can accomplish them by working together.

Getting to know Laura GillenNovember 22, 2017 - 12:00am
"Once we got to the Inn at New Hyde Park and the polls were closed and the numbers were coming in, my calmness fell away a little bit because this is the moment of truth," recalled Laura Gillen, the Town of Hempstead's first Democratic supervisor-elect in more than a century.
Down in the polls early on Nov. 7, Gillen remembered, she and incumbent Republican Anthony Santino were neck and neck for much of the night, separated by a few hundred votes at one point as districts continued to report results.

Defective Bumbo Baby Car Seats Recalled | May Have Caused Fractured Skulls In Infants | Maryland and Virginia Products Liability Lawsuits May Result
Earlier this week, articles in the Wall Street Journal and in other news sources were published indicating that the maker of Bumbo Baby Car Seats has recalled over four million infant chairs.
Apparently, reports are surfacing from various news sources and from the CPC that at least eight four infants have fallen from these seats due to a potential manufacturing defect and at least twenty one babies have fallen from these seats and fractured their skulls. The CPC indicates that many more incidents may have occurred resulting in less serious injuries.
These infant seats have been sold throughout the United States between 2003 and 2012 and have been sold everywhere from Babies "R" Us to Sears, Target, and Wal-Mart. Parents of children who have fallen out of any kind of infant chair should contact a product liability attorney immediately and are cautioned to be extremely careful when using infant seats in general, let alone infant seats from manufacturers like Bumbo International, who has had to recall numerous infant products in the past.
Consumers have been urged by the company itself to stop using the products immediately as they may cause an increased risk of injury unless repaired with a restraint belt safety kit.

DRC Ebola News (8/2/19)
"DRC Ebola News (8/2/19)." CSIS Commission on Strengthening America's Health Security, Center for Strategic and International Studies, August 02, 2019. Accessed June 12, 2020. https://healthsecurity.csis.org/articles/drc-ebola-news-8-2-19/
There were 10 new cases as of August 1st.
A fourth case of Ebola has been confirmed in Goma.
Rwanda advises its citizens not to go "needlessly" to Goma, and for those who have stayed there to be tested.
Community leadership and mobilization is integral to stopping the outbreak. Amy Daffe, Deputy country director for Mercy Corps in DRC, notes that insufficient emphasis is being placed on building community trust and acceptance.
David Gressly explains that improved core response techniques, such as proper surveillance and monitoring systems, are still needed.
Recommended readings:
DRC MoH Stats/WHO AFRO Dashboard
Total cases: 2,713
- Confirmed cases: 2,619
- Probable cases: 94
- Suspected cases: 423
Deaths: 1,823
Vaccinated: 181,389
Fourth Ebola case found in Congo city, raising fears of faster spread
The new case is the wife of a miner who died of the virus earlier this week in Goma, and who only sought treatment more than a week after starting to show symptoms. "This time … the individual concerned spent time with his family and spent time [being] very symptomatic within the community. So we did expect further cases and we are seeing further cases," said Margaret Harris, a spokeswoman for the World Health Organization (WHO). More than 200 people who came into contact with the man have been tracked and 160 of them vaccinated.
Ebola in Goma: Rwanda announces the screening of its citizens who have stayed in Goma
Screening for Ebola symptoms at ports of entry has been ongoing since the beginning of the epidemic and has increased since the confirmation of a case in Goma. About 3000 health workers in high-risk areas have been vaccinated, including more than 1100 in Rubavu district, near Goma. The denial of the Rwandan foreign minister that the county's border with DRC had been closed yesterday contrasted with several testimonies of DRC citizens living in the Rwandan city of Gisenyi who had not been able to cross into Goma.
We can't stop Congo's Ebola outbreak until communities lead the response
By Amy Daffe, Deputy country director for Mercy Corps in DRC, 8/1/19
Instead of working with local leaders, outsiders arrived spreading messages that have left communities with more questions than answers. Information has not been well-tailored to different community contexts nor appropriately adapted to local languages or social norms. As a result, cases are being hidden in communities and worryingly the contacts of those that die are largely unknown, making tracing difficult. With a 68 percent fatality rate, this Ebola outbreak is among the deadliest ever (the average rate is 50 percent). We need to engage local leadership, including local chiefs, and bring community groups on board with community conversations targeting caretakers and groups vulnerable to the virus, and train them on the use of education materials, early warning mechanisms, and conflict rumor resolution. An unstable security situation adds to the complexity of the response.
WHO calls for return to basics to fight DRC Ebola crisis
By Amy Lieberman, 8/2/19
"The basics are still important, and the basics include good surveillance, good contact identification from an Ebola patient, tracking those same individuals to see if they develop the symptoms, and if they do, testing in isolation to see if they are, in fact, positive," David Gressly, WHO's Ebola emergency response coordinator, said yesterday at a press briefing in New York, speaking from DRC. "This is the most difficult environment where an Ebola response has ever been attempted. The environment is difficult because of the high density of population. It is difficult because it is a conflict zone … It is an area of opposition that has felt marginalized, with a high level of distrust of authorities," he also mentioned.
Tweet by Helen Branswell– 8/1/19
7. Heartbreaking story about 2 young kids who survived #Ebola but whose families don't want them back because of fear or stigma. I am told this happens during Ebola outbreaks. But I can't imagine the trauma it inflicts.
Tweet by WHO African Region– 8/1/19
Dr Marie Roseline Darnycka Bélizaire is an epidemiologist with the @WHO, working to save lives during the #Ebola outbreak in the #DRC. "The work is not done yet, and we will stay here until it's done," she says. "I can't leave with the sensation of leaving something behind".
