Open Letter to Whiny Jason Feimster
Poor little whiny Jason Feimster. He's being bullied! I know this because I just read his comment on a LinkedIn post. It went like this:
What are we at again? Speaking of conducting due diligence, have we ever spoke? I find your negative press and borderline lies almost amusing. However, your cyber bullying rhetoric is getting a little over played.
It sounds like the ex-Marine, and big-time VC, who runs a $70 million Venture Fund (according to Feimster) is being bullied by a little old man who isn't a VC running a $70 million fund. Either Mr. Cranky is a bully or whiny Jason Feimster thinks you can be bullied by facts.
Jason was responding to this post on LinkedIn that linked to this post.
So I want to respond to this complaint in an open letter:
Dear Whiny Jason Feimster,
It is true we have never spoken. It is also true that I have only presented facts and from those facts, made several assertions. I'm concerned that you believe that there are borderline lies. I assure you that if there are any lies in my posts, and you can prove to me I am in error, I will remove the posts and sing your praises!!!!
Let's address the facts:
- You are a plagiarist – as outlined in the post, AlleyWatch Plagiarism Hosting 3Si's Jason Feimster, either you have plagiarised the over 15 articles from 15 different authors or 15 different authors have decided to plagiarise you. Everyone know's you plagiarised these articles. Want me to stop presenting the facts (or as you say, stop being a big bad bully to whiny Jason Feimster, big time VC and ex-marine)? Take the articles down and apologize to the authors.
- You don't run a $70 million fund – You don't run a $1 million dollar fund as you claim. If I'm wrong, you will be able to do what all real VCs do. Present me with the filing data to the SEC proving you raised $70 million. Who put up the money. Also, kudos to you for writing this article below all by your little self. There is a marked difference between this poorly written yarn and the articles you plagiarize. In the article below and in many other places you claim you run a $70 million fund. You don't. One of us is lying.
- The Team – In the video featured in this post, "Jason Feimster How Venture Capital Works," you talk about your team (see quote following this paragraph). Please tell us what 20 people are part of your team. Highlight which of them make up the "majority are engineers" and from which top-tier universities they earned their PhDs. Also please explain why multiple people, as explained in this post, "3Si's Team – The Best And The Brightest," say they are not members of your team and have asked to be removed from your website. Either explain these anomalies or remove the people from your website who are not on your team and correct the record.
- "Our team is very lean as far as a VC firm. We've got about twenty. The majority of which are engineers, PhDs from top-tier universities and the like given, that we do show preference to technology. We have a very competent and I'm very proud of our legal team. You know that does the legal due diligence and then last but not least, we focus on the financials. You know our CFO senior investment officer, etc." – Whyny Jason Feimster
- VC versus Stacked Credit Cards – I have in my possession agreements that whiny Jason Feimster sent to multiple prospective clients. These agreements authorize you to apply for multiple credit cards guaranteed by the client. This appears to be the funding you are getting for the clients. Jason, that is not a VC deal. You are not a VC.
Now, young man, instead of being a whiny Jason Feimster, put on your big boy pants, and explain how these are borderline lies on my part. Because they are not borderline lies on your part, they are outright fraud. I would be overjoyed to be proven wrong. On the day you prove that you are a real VC, that you manage a $5 million dollar fund, that you have a team of 3 competent experienced executives on your team, and that you wrote any of the articles that I have stated you plagiarized. I will retract every post, apologize publically and post what an idiot I've been.
Since you will not be able to do any of that… I'm going to do you a favor. Read this about how to handle bad press, Company PR Crisis Management. Basically, it's best not to be a whiny little bitch.

It was quite crazy but Bill and I fell in love immediately on the day both of us met in the park. He asked me to live with him in his vacation cabin in South Carolina and I accepted his proposal. You say what you want concerning a whirlwind romance, but he as well as I have been very happy together for almost a decade.
A gun-toting family of 4 got the next vacation cabin from Old Saul in 2012. Just what is the best pepper spray to hide in the house if brand new next-door neighbors enjoy to pick off unfilled containers in their backyard? I fear for the safety of our two youngsters, Bill as well as me.
My eldest kid's music instructor advises me that defense spray is not deadly. It debilitates for 15 to 45 minutes as a stalling method so you can get away and contact 9-1-1. The enemy survives without any irreparable injury, though hopefully in the sheriff's custody.
How exactly does it do this? That instigates an excruciating burning sensation on the skin and also in the eyes, as well as retards respiration. Powerful self-defense sprays further force your eyes to close, and get you gagging and also coughing without pause.
She, Chan's professor, believes I need to try out these powerful defense sprays. She's knowledgeable about 18 percent defense spray particularly, which is a lot more effective than 10 % self-defense spray. With hot self-defense spray just like that, the impacts increase in rate and power.
I am all for hotness in my pepper, however it has to be a spray I'm able to have within the house. I have been Googling pepper sprays, and may have gotten the perfect solution. Bill prefers what he found, and informs me to go for it.
The WildFire 1.5 oz. self-defense spray includes an 18 percent dosage of oleoresin capsicum the fashion Ms. Marsh loves it. Its heat clocks in at three million Scoville heat units. What appeals to me is it is family-sized, and made up of totally food-grade pepper.
In case I've discovered my house self-defense spray, what is the best pepper spray to bring to me then? God forbid I encounter those next-door neighbors in town, say, at the grocer's, just as they are robbing the grocer at gunpoint.
Brigette B Yarbrough has been training people how to use self defense items to protect themselves for dozens of years now. There are dozens of options, including stun guns, pepper sprays and personal alarms. He provides complete help and instruction on how to use the items. Visit Website

Developed by WinRecovery Software, CardRecovery is photo recovery software designed specifically for damaged, unreadable and defective memory cards, though it's also capable of scanning and recovering photos from a standard hard drive. The developers claim that it can recover all types of photos and video files, including proprietary raw formats used by nearly every digital camera brand. However, while it's excellent for JPG image recovery, we didn't have much success recovering other types of photos with it in our tests.
We performed two tests to simulate the two most common data loss scenarios: lost file, which occurs when the files are no longer found in the directory, and reformatted drive. We performed these tests multiple times on an HDD, SSD and SD card. We also looked at how many of the proprietary raw formats the software could recognize. While CardRecovery didn't perform well when recovering most image types, it was perfect where it counts the most: JPGs.
The best feature of CardRecovery is its JPG recovery rate. In every test, and on each drive type, it recovered every JPG in our data set. This is significant because JPG is the most commonly used image format. Therefore, for most users it's the most important image file for picture recovery software to recoup. However, JPG is also the easiest image format to recover because it's the easiest type of file for image recovery software to piece back together. For reference, the average recovery rate for JPGs in the lost file test of all products in our comparison was 88 percent, and the average from our reformatted drive test was 75 percent.
The biggest downside to CardRecovery is the success rate for all other types of image formats. It retrieved only 25 percent of the other raster formats – BMP, GIF PNG and TIF. In both tests, it also failed to recover a single vector image or production image. And while it recovered a respectable 53 percent of the raw images during our lost file tests, it didn't recover any camera raw images during the reformatted drive test. It also failed to recover any camera raw images on the SD card, which is surprising because this software is designed for SD cards.
While it recognized the camera raw formats only during the lost file tests, CardRecovery did recognize most of the formats. The only raw formats it failed to recognize were from Polaroid, Epson and Samsung. One positive note is its conversion of camera raw images to TIF files. This is helpful because it allows you to preview the camera raw image before initiating the recovery. By automatically making TIF versions of the camera raw images, you can see if the image is uncorrupted enough to be worth salvaging. Though it has fast recover speed, it has one of the slowest scan speeds. If you prefer software with a faster scanning speed, consider Disk Doctors - the fastest in our comparison.
In every test, CardRecovery rescued every JPG photo, which is the most common and important photo format to recover. However, it failed to recover any of the vector and production images, and the recovery rate for other raster formats was subpar. It recognized most of the camera raw images, but not on the SD card, which is odd because this software is designed specifically for memory cards.

Déjà vu all over again on the St. Croix River
As mentioned in prior posts here and here, CLF's lawsuit to reopen the St. Croix River to alewives resulted in this letter from EPA agreeing that the Maine Alewife Law violated water quality standards for the St. Croix.
Yesterday, the Maine Attorney General responded to that letter here and the response is disappointing to say the least. The first half of the letter is not even related to the Alewife Law but rather a gratuitous attempt to bolster the State's efforts to restrict the jurisdiction of the Passamaquoddy Tribe and other Maine tribes. The second half of the letter does not contest the findings in EPA's letter that the Alewife Law constitutes a change in the St Croix's water quality standard but rather attempts to justify that change as a fishery management exercise unrelated to the Clean Water Act.
As I noted in a interview yesterday on MPBN, you can put lipstick on a pig but it is still a pig. Nor is the State's "commitment" to the so-called adaptive management plan for the St Croix currently under consideration by the International Joint Commission of any real value. As noted in this article by Colin Woodard, the adaptive management plan may be better than nothing but just barely.
What this means for the St Croix is really nothing more than status quo – passage at the Grand Falls dam will remain closed to alewives as long as the State is willing to let bad science and a small minority of self-interested fishing guides call the shots. This is even more unpalatable given the current crisis that our lobster fishery is in. A resurgent alewife population (close to 3 million before the State closed fish passage) could only help that industry that can use alewives as bait fish. A robust alewife population would also help the Maine groundfish and whale watching industries, for whom alewives are a key source of food. For these reasons, as well as the health of the St Croix ecosystem as a whole, CLF remains committed to restoring alewives to their native habitat in the St. Croix. Stay tuned for next steps.

Journaling is not a one size fits all activity. Some people need to log everything, others need a bare minimum. That decision is partly about your goals as the business school maxim "you manage what you measure" is true in this situation as well. While your goals are important so is your personality. As with anything health and fitness related the most effective option is the one you will actually stick to long term and for different people differing frequency and volume of logging works best.
At a bare minimum you need to track your personal records. This includes strength and benchmark workouts. This would also include any runs, swims or ergs if you are an endurance athlete though the endurance world is very easy to quantify these days which we will discuss in part 3, so most of that can be automated.
This is great for people who hate the tedious nature of logging every single thing every day. You can look back at your testing from the previous attempt and base you strategy around that. This will allow you to track progress over time which has motivational benefits and importantly will allow you to see if what you are doing is working. This is totally acceptable for long term for anyone without elite goals that doesn't feel the need to track the minutia.
There are benefits though to tracking more regularly which are discussed below.
Daily training log
Basically you write down what you do each day. Start with the obvious stuff, sets, weights and reps for lifting, Weights and times or rounds for crossfit. Times and distance for running etc. Also, include things like how you felt, when you ate etc. This will allow you look back and see things that affect your training on a day to day basis. It will also allow you to see patterns of over training. If you have weeks in end where you simply don't feel good and you are training a lot it may be time for a rest or more than likely a time to take a look at your recovery plan.
One thing to consider even if tracking you daily training is too much for you is to simply check in your calendar the days you trained. This helps add accountability by monitoring. It's a strategy that seems to be effective for certain people to keep them in good habits.
Food, Sleep etc
Some people would go crazy tracking sleep and food, others would thrive on it. Consider who you are and also your circumstances and then decide what to track. If you are getting plenty of sleep AND you feel well rested and don't like the idea of logging sleep simply don't . The nutrition plan I follow is simple and doesn't require a log and I have no problem sticking to it so I don't log food. Some people though fly off the rails if they don't log food. If that's you then you need to log.
What is important is that you log when and what you ate and how you felt both in and out of training. When it comes to sleep log no only time but how you felt after it. There are now apps to automate a lot of this which we will talk about in part 3.

New Zealand hip-hop artists Ladi6 have announced their forthcoming Royal Blue 3000 EP and released the lead track 'Guru' . The track is in their trademark electronic neo-soul style and blends contemporary production with Ladi's soulful voice.
Inspired by the art of krautrock, the unconventional creation process of the Royal Blue 3000 EP saw Ladi6 partner with Red Bull to form The Alpha Sessions, where they brought the band's studio set up to the stage for live performances around New Zealand. The band created, experimented and re-created new material live, feeling their way through the music as tracks developed, and forming the basis of the EP on pure instinct and freestyle before taking the best cuts into the studio to refine. On the experience, Ladi6 explained it served as "a reminder for ourselves to not take all this music shit too seriously, and to simply trust in our instincts that what we're doing, is what we're meant to be doing."
Royal Blue 3000 EP is available to pre-order via iTunes with 'Guru' as an instant grat track.

Back-To-School Trends, 2019
Now that the summer of 2019 has come and gone, teens all over the world are heading back to school. This time of the year always brings on new trends that everybody wants to be part of, so I'm here to tell you about the biggest trends this semester:
September 9, 2019
Now that the summer of 2019 has come and gone, teens all over the world are heading back to school. This time of the year always brings on new trends that everybody wants to be part of, so I'm here to tell you about the biggest trends this semester:
Tik Tok
I'm sure all of you have heard of this trend. This app is taking over the internet and being considered the 'new Vine'. This app is used to make short 30 second videos dancing to a popular song or acting out funny skits. On Tik Tok, you can find teens of all ages. It is a great community of creators with their own hilarious ideas. Although, If you are using this app I still suggest you stay safe and never post any personal information on the app.
"Celebrities as things" tweet threads
This is a meme that I personally love. It's super popular right now and I highly recommend looking it up if you have no clue what I'm talking about. Basically, people compare celebrities in iconic outfits to objects or cartoon characters. My personal favorite is 'Chris Evans as Doritos'.
Peppa Pig
You may have heard of the children's show 'Peppa Pig'. Though the show is for toddlers and young kids, it has become quite a meme in the teen world. There are a lot of different memes surrounding Peppa. They are super funny and a majority of the time, pretty wholesome.
Scrunchies are easily the most popular accessory right now. Every teen girl has one, if not 20, in her house this year. The 90's are coming back and these hair ties are the center of it all.
These extremely comfortable (although admittedly, unattractive) shoes are a guilty pleasure for a lot of us. Moms all over hate them and we once did too. When we were kids we got mocked for wearing them but now all the popular kids and even popular teen celebrities are wearing them.
This is a trend I can hop on board with! Denim is super popular right now and perfect for any weather. Not just denim jeans, but jackets, skirts, and even shoes are trending if they are denim. I think of you wear it right denim looks super cute and it's perfect for a good back-to-school look.
This 31 year old artist is so talented and super popular. She has an amazing sound that is hard to find anywhere else. She recently hit #1 song on the Hot 100 with her song "Truth Hurts" (which is such a bop)! You may have heard her song "Boys" or "Juice," which are some of her more popular songs.
Billie Eilish
At only 16 her song "Ocean Eyes" went Viral. Since then she has released 2 albums and 25 singles. She released her album "When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?" last year and everyone fell in love. If you haven't already, you should definitely listen to her music.
Alec Benjamin
He is a lesser known artist who is incredibly talented. He has a very unique sound with an indie pop vibe that is very catchy! You might have heard is song "Water Fountain." If you haven't heard of him, I totally recommend looking him up. You can thank me later!

Under the contract, the firm will provide freight services between the ports of Ramsgate in England and Ostend in Belgium if Britain leaves the EU without a deal.
However, it has emerged that the firm currently has no ferries or experience in running a Channel service.

"It's a new start-up business, government is supporting new business and there is nothing wrong with that," Mr Grayling said.
"We have looked very carefully at this business and have put in place a tight contract that makes sure they can deliver for us.
"This has been looked at very carefully by a team of civil servants who have done due diligence."
The Transport Secretary added that the shipping company was "on track" to run services from April.

gas pumps
Time to Clean Up
It's time,
Time to clean this lot up,
When did the pumps last work,
Just a guess, I never remember them working
And I left in 1990,
But I think something new should go there,
Another Dollar General,
Another vacant shopping mall,
Perhaps it's time
To revive the pancake house industry
Or install a temporary ice skating rink.
By all means
Don't tear this down for green space,
A park is a waste of money
Trees and grass are expensive
The upkeep is too much
And for what,
Some time next to nature
Enjoying the clean air, the shade,
The lack of sprawl,
Ah, heck, maybe the pumps should stay,
They provide an interesting study
Of what is important. Hah…

Connections and Comparisons is an ongoing weekly series that deals with many scriptures in the Bible, some of which are not commonly addressed. The purpose of this series is to examine the scriptures at hand comparing what is said and looking at the connections within.
If Christ is not the Centerpiece of your life, then you need to make Him the centerpiece of your life today or you will die lost and go to hell and eventually the Lake of Fire. "And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth." (Revelation 3:14-16)
Revelation 20:7-15
7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.
10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
This walk with God that we are living is not fun and games in the sense of foolishness, wickedness, iniquity, and sin. If Christ is not the Centerpiece of your walk with God it is clearly written what your end will be.
If Christ is the Centerpiece of your life then what should your walk with God look like? Should you be listening to the radio with talk show hosts speaking ungodly content? Listening to filthy songs that speak of the wickedness of the flesh and the lusts of this life? Do you really think Christ is the Centerpiece of your life while you are partaking of these things?
What about smoking cigarettes and drinking whiskey, beer, and other forms of alcoholic drinks? Is this making Christ the Centerpiece in your life? How about when your snorting and shooting up? Is this making Christ the Centerpiece in your life?
"Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." (Galatians 6:7) "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God." (1 Corinthians 6:9-11) "Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers." (Ephesians 4:29) "Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners." (1 Corinthians 15:33)
If fornicators and adulterers are not going to inherit eternal life and Christ is the Centerpiece of your life, then why do you watch movies and TV shows with such lewdness and lasciviousness? If idolaters are not going to inherit eternal life and Christ is the Centerpiece of your life, then why are you worshiping your own opinions over the Word of God? Why are you idolizing celebrities, entertainers, sports players, and all of the things the world is idolizing?
If effeminates and abusers of themselves with mankind are not going to inherit eternal life and Christ is the Centerpiece of your life, then why do you embrace their ways and follow after their folly and their shame? If thieves and those who covet are not going to inherit eternal life and Christ is the Centerpiece of your life, then why do you admire, wonder after, and covet the wicked and their ways? "Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth." (Ephesians 4:28)
If drunkards are not going to inherit eternal life and Christ is the Centerpiece of your life, then
why are you celebrating with them? If revilers are not going to inherit eternal life and Christ is the Centerpiece of your life, then why do you rail upon one another? If extortioners are not going to inherit eternal life and Christ is the Centerpiece of your life, then why rob God? "Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings." (Malachi 3:8) "Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and that write grievousness which they have prescribed; To turn aside the needy from judgment, and to take away the right from the poor of my people, that widows may be their prey, and that they may rob the fatherless! And what will ye do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which shall come from far? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory?" (Isaiah 10:1-3)
It's time to do some housekeeping and I mean not only your literal dwelling place but also your temple. It's time to make some changes in your heart and make Christ the Centerpiece of your life.
1 Corinthians 5:9-13
9 I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:
10 Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.
11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.
12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?
13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
1 Peter 2:21-25
21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
23 Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:
24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
Matthew 23:25-28
25 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.
26 Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.
27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.
28 Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
Many sinners just love these verses to condemn the righteous but they themselves either don't recognize or don't care that they too are full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness, and filthiness of the flesh. Woe unto you too for you love to condemn the just and make excuses to establish your own righteousness! Woe unto you too for you love to make pretense and show that you are pure but within you are full of envy, jealousy, bitterness, hatred, and many other iniquities and uncleanness.
1 Thessalonians 4:3-8
3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:
4 That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;
5 Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:
6 That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.
7 For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.
8 He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.
It is God that they despise and if they call themselves a brother or sister then you are not to keep company with them because they sow discord and have despised God. If they do not call themselves a brother or sister then you still are not to keep company with them other than for the cause of witnessing the gospel to them that they may repent and turn from their wicked lifestyle.
2 Corinthians 6:14-18
14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
It's time to make Christ the Centerpiece of your life and touch not the unclean thing!! It's time to clean "first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also." (Matthew 23:26) It's time to clean up your heart and your lifestyle and behavior will reflect that which is within your heart. If Christ is the Centerpiece of your life, then "If ye love me, keep my commandments." (John 14:15)

Chelsea Manning has been sent back to jail after refusing to answer questions before a grand jury investigating WikiLeaks and its founder Julian Assange. Manning, a U.S. Army whistleblower, had been subpoenaed by federal prosecutors in Virginia's Eastern District to appear for questioning about her 2010 leak to WikiLeaks of hundreds of thousands of State Department and Pentagon documents about the U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. We speak with Glenn Greenwald, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and one of the founding editors of The Intercept.
AMY GOODMAN: Music by Mangueira, Brazil's most famous samba school. Last week, Mangueira won Carnival in Rio de Janeiro, getting a perfect score from judges for its float honoring Rio Councilwoman Marielle Franco, who was assassinated almost a year ago. This is Democracy Now!, democracynow.org, The War and Peace Report. I'm Amy Goodman.
U.S. Army whistleblower Chelsea Manning has been sent back to jail after refusing to answer questions before a grand jury investigating WikiLeaks and its founder, Julian Assange. Manning had been subpoenaed by federal prosecutors in Virginia's Eastern District to appear for questioning about her 2010 leak to WikiLeaks of hundreds of thousands of State Department and Pentagon documents about the U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
To talk more about the jailing of Manning, as well as other issues, including what's happening in Venezuela, we turn right now to Glenn Greenwald, speaking to us from Brazil. He's a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, one of the founding editors of The Intercept.
Glenn, welcome back to Democracy Now! Talk about Chelsea Manning once again being jailed.
GLENN GREENWALD: I don't think it's a surprise to anybody that Chelsea Manning is extraordinarily heroic. She has demonstrated that repeatedly over the last decade in all kinds of ways. But what she's doing here is really remarkable, because the context is that the Trump administration is trying to do what the Obama administration tried to do but ultimately concluded it couldn't do without jeopardizing press freedoms, which is to prosecute WikiLeaks and Julian Assange for what it regards as the crime of publishing top-secret or classified documents.
And the media in the United States has spent two years screaming about the threat that Trump poses to press freedoms because he says mean things about the media on Twitter or insults Wolf Blitzer and Chuck Todd, and yet here we have what is really a grave threat to press freedom: the attempt to make it a felony to publish classified material—which is what WikiLeaks did. Even the anti-press freedom Obama administration said this was a bridge too far for us.
And while most reporters are mute on this scandal, on this controversy, and while a lot of Democrats are supportive of it, because they still hate WikiLeaks so much from the 2016 election that they're happy to see Julian Assange go to jail, even if it means standing behind the Trump administration, Chelsea Manning is not just opposing it, she's opposing it to the point where she refuses to participate in it, even if it means, as it now does, that she's going to be jailed for being in contempt of court for refusing to comply with a subpoena. We all owe our immense gratitude to Chelsea Manning for everything she's done over the last decade, but even more so now.
AMY GOODMAN: I'd like to go back to 2017, when Mike Pompeo talked about Chelsea Manning in his first address as CIA director in April of last year [sic].
MIKE POMPEO: WikiLeaks walks like a hostile intelligence service and talks like a hostile intelligence service and has encouraged its followers to find jobs at the CIA in order to obtain intelligence. It directed Chelsea Manning in her theft of specific secret information. It overwhelmingly focuses on the United States, while seeking support from anti-democratic countries and organizations. It's time to call out WikiLeaks for what it really is: a nonstate, hostile intelligence service, often abetted by state actors like Russia.
AMY GOODMAN: So, that was Pompeo when he was head of the CIA. Now, of course, he is secretary of state. Can you respond to what he has said, Glenn Greenwald?
GLENN GREENWALD: This is the part I find so amazing. Do Democrats not realize the irony here of cheering for the most reactionary, right-wing forces in the Trump administration, who are the ones trying to imprison Julian Assange and WikiLeaks in order to criminalize journalism—namely, Mike Pompeo—and the person who actually first vowed to put WikiLeaks and Assange behind bars, which was then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who has since left the Trump administration?
The Obama administration tried to create theories to say that WikiLeaks did more than just passively receive documents from Chelsea Manning and then publish them, because they knew they had to do that in order to prosecute WikiLeaks; otherwise, how do you justify prosecuting WikiLeaks for publishing classified documents, without also prosecuting The New York Times and The Guardian? The Justice Department, under Obama, searched high and low for evidence that WikiLeaks participated in Chelsea Manning's taking of those documents. They found no evidence. She testified under oath that she acted alone, that they played no role whatsoever in her decision to do that.
And now, suddenly, seven years later, Mike Pompeo claims that they have evidence or that they believe that WikiLeaks told her to do it, and therefore they intend to prosecute WikiLeaks. And unfortunately, between the Republicans, who have long hated WikiLeaks for exposing the war crimes of the Bush administration, and Democrats, who now hate WikiLeaks because they published documents that were harmful to or reflected poorly on Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party, very few people are willing to stand up to this very serious attack on press freedom. And thankfully, Chelsea Manning is one of those people.
AMY GOODMAN: I want to turn to John Bolton speaking about Chelsea Manning in the 2012 BBC film Wikileaks: The Secret Life of a Superpower. He was interviewed by Richard Bilton.
RICHARD BILTON: What do you think of Bradley Manning?
JOHN BOLTON: I think he committed treason. I think he should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
RICHARD BILTON: What does that mean?
JOHN BOLTON: Well, treason is the only crime defined by our Constitution, and it says treason shall consist only of levying war against the United States or adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. And he gave our enemies a lot of aid and comfort.
RICHARD BILTON: So what should happen to him?
JOHN BOLTON: Well, he should be prosecuted. And if he's found guilty, he should be punished to the fullest extent possible.
RICHARD BILTON: And what is that?
JOHN BOLTON: Death.
RICHARD BILTON: You think he should be killed.
JOHN BOLTON: Yes.
AMY GOODMAN: "You think you should be killed." "Yes," responded John Bolton, now the national security adviser. Of course, Bradley Manning became Chelsea Manning. She announced her transition the day she was sentenced. Glenn Greenwald?
GLENN GREENWALD: These are the sentiments that are driving the current attempt to prosecute WikiLeaks and Assange. And those are the monsters who are responsible for it.
So, I would hope that however angry someone might be at Julian Assange or WikiLeaks for whatever they think they did as part of the 2016 election to undermine Hillary Clinton by publishing truthful documents that showed the corruption of the DNC, however angry one might be at WikiLeaks for having done that, one can separate those emotions and understand that what the Trump administration has nothing to do with the 2016 election. The criminal proceedings that have led to Chelsea Manning's jailing for the second time in the last decade are all about documents that were published, not in 2016, but in 2011 and 2012.
And it's being done by people, like John Bolton, who believe that if you publish top-secret documents that report on the misdeeds and criminal acts of the U.S. government, you're not only a criminal, but a traitor who deserves to be killed. You just heard that with your own ears. And so, anyone supporting the Trump administration's efforts to put Julian Assange in prison because you're angry about what he did in the 2016 election, you're aligning yourself with and you're empowering those warped, sociopathic sentiments that you just heard come out of John Bolton's mouth.
AMY GOODMAN: Glenn Greenwald, I also want to talk to you about Venezuela. An investigation by The New York Times found several trucks carrying so-called humanitarian aid that were set ablaze during a showdown at the Colombia-Venezuela border last month were not caused by President Nicolás Maduro's forces, as was widely reported at the time by both media and Trump administration officials. This is Vice President Mike Pence.
VICE PRESIDENT MIKE PENCE: Maduro's loyalists turned on their own people. As the world watched, they set fire to trucks loaded with food and medicine desperately needed by the Venezuelan people.
AMY GOODMAN: Independent journalist Max Blumenthal first raised questions about what happened, in a piece on February 24th that was headlined "Burning Aid: An Interventionist Deception on Colombia-Venezuela Bridge?"
Glenn, your latest piece is headlined "NYT's Exposé on the Lies About Burning Aid Trucks in Venezuela Shows How U.S. Government and Media Spread Pro-War Propaganda." Talk about the latest in Venezuela and how this has fueled that.
GLENN GREENWALD: Every time the U.S. wants to start a new war, it does it the same way, which is, it invents some really inflammatory, emotionally wrenching lie that gets people to hate the government they want to topple so much that they set their rationality aside and support the war. So, they claimed North Korea—or, North Vietnam attacked U.S. ships in the Gulf of Tonkin, which was a lie to start the Vietnam War. They claimed that Saddam had been ripping babies out of incubators in Kuwait, to start the Gulf War, which was a lie. They claimed weapons of mass destruction, which was a lie, to start the Iraq War.
And now you have Marco Rubio and John Bolton and Elliott Abrams, the crew, the neocon crew, who are experts at lying to start wars, going around telling lies about what the Maduro government is doing. And regardless of what you think about the Maduro government or President Maduro himself, you should be highly angry when your own government, with the help of its media, lies to you in order to start a war.
And this incident on February 23rd was incredibly important because that imagery of burning humanitarian trucks was very powerful. And the claim that it was Maduro's forces that did it came not just from Marco Rubio, who cited anti-Maduro media outlets with no evidence. CNN—CNN—lied to the world. They claimed that their own journalists witnessed with their own eyes Maduro's forces throwing incendiary devices that set those trucks on fire.
Right away, independent journalists, including Max Blumenthal, as well as Dan Cohen, who works at RT, looked at and studied—they were in Venezuela—the available footage and said that it was clear that it was the anti-Maduro protesters who set those trucks on fire. But those people were ignored by the corporate media in the United States, which only paid attention to the people who were lying on behalf of the U.S. government, only aired the lies that it was the Maduro forces who did it. And then, suddenly, The New York Times comes out with a good exposé that proves that it was a lie. They didn't bother to credit any of the independent journalists who did it two weeks ago using much of the same evidence, but they did show that it was a lie.
And since then, Marco Rubio has got caught in two other lies. He claimed that babies were dying in hospitals, and then The Wall Street Journal reporter in Venezuela went to that hospital and said no babies had died. And also he claimed that a dam, that he called the German Dam, had collapsed because of the energy shortages, when, in reality, there was no dam that collapsed. The person who reported it was named Germán Dam, and Marco Rubio confused that and thought that it was a dam that had collapsed.
So he's running around Venezuela telling all kinds of lies, acting like a buffoon and a clown, with John Bolton and Elliott Abrams in tow, in order to try and start a new war in Venezuela. And as usual, the corporate media—unlike Democracy Now!, which has put Venezuelan officials on to give the other side of the story, the corporate media in the U.S. have completely excluded any questioning or dissent of any of these storylines and have allowed these lies to go unchallenged, and, in the case of CNN, have often vouched for the lies themselves.
AMY GOODMAN: So, I wanted to go to this issue that you just raised, local reporting emerging that ongoing power outage has killed 17 people in hospitals, where backup generators failed; President Maduro saying last week anti-government saboteurs backed by the U.S. took the nation's main hydroelectric power station at the Guri Dam offline; meanwhile, The New York Times reporting the sanctions have affected Venezuela's ability to import and produce the fuel required by the thermal power plants, that could have backed up the Guri plant once it failed. If you could respond to all this, and especially President Maduro's accusation that the power outage, which has plunged the country into darkness, though the electricity is coming back now, was as a result of a plot backed by the United States?
GLENN GREENWALD: Well, one really interesting part of that New York Times exposé that got very little attention, was buried within, I think, the 12th or 13th paragraph, was an acknowledgment that the reason for the power outages, at least in large part, were the sanctions that the U.S. has imposed on Venezuela, that has made it impossible for Venezuela to get the energy that it needs to provide to its people. And so, as usual, the sanctions regime that's being done in the name of helping the Venezuelan people is one of the biggest factors in their suffering deprivation and misery.
AMY GOODMAN: Finally, Glenn, your response to what's happened in the United States, in Congress, to Ilhan Omar and the ultimate just general statement against hatred, of all forms, that the House passed?
GLENN GREENWALD: It's just so ironic that the whole controversy began—actually in response to one of my tweets—by her simply pointing out that just like the NRA and Wall Street and the fossil fuel industry controls Congress through the use of money and lobbying power, so too does the Israeli lobby, making it impossible for dissent to be aired. And the three weeks of controversy that ensue proved her point, as people treated her as though she had said something anti-Semitic, when in fact she never mentioned or even alluded to Jews at all. The Israel lobby is composed of evangelicals, of militarists, of neocons, of all kinds of people.
And she was simply trying to air a debate that is urgently needed but that never takes place in Washington. And for that, she has been vilified, not just by members of the Republican Party, but also the cowards in her own party, with all kinds of character attacks and smears. And yet she's incredibly brave. As she said herself, she survived a war in Somalia; this is nothing. And she's going to continue—and I'm really grateful for this—to do the things she was sent to Washington to do, which is exactly to raise these issues, no matter how many names she's called for doing it.
AMY GOODMAN: I wanted to get your response to Judge Jeanine Pirro, who was speaking on Fox News. After the resolution passed against anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, white supremacy and other forms of hate, she attacked Congressmember Ilhan Omar—one of the two Muslim women in Congress now—for wearing a hijab. Your response, Glenn?
GLENN GREENWALD: I mean, no decent person needs it explained to them why what Jeanine Pirro said is absolutely disgusting and bigoted and repulsive and ignorant. And, in fact, what I find really interesting is that even people at Fox News, including a Muslim producer, publicly denounced Jeanine Pirro in a viral tweet, and then Fox News itself repudiated her remarks and said that they were inappropriate and that they had spoken with her privately and made clear their disapproval. So, just think about that. Her remarks were so grotesque that they went way over the line even for Fox News and its very low standards for what you're allowed to say about Muslims.
But this is—I mean, Jeanine Pirro is—this is who she's always been. For people who live in New York, people have always known that. And this is the kind of bigotry that's typically allowed to be expressed about Muslims, in a way that you're not allowed to express about any other groups. She just went a little too far in being a little too explicit, and therefore got denounced even by Fox News for having done so.

Isaiah 60:1–6
Ephesians 3:1–12
Matthew 2:1–12
The Lord God Is Manifested in the Incarnate Son
Epiphany centers in the visit of the Magi from the East. In that respect, it is a "thirteenth day" of Christmas, and yet, it also marks the beginning of a new liturgical season. Where Christmas has focused on the incarnation of our Lord, that is, on God becoming flesh, the season of Epiphany emphasizes the manifestation or self-revelation of God in that same flesh of Christ. For the Lord Himself has entered our darkness and rises upon us with the brightness of His true light (Is. 60:1–2). He does so chiefly by His Word of the Gospel, which He causes to be preached within His Church on earth, not only to the Jews but also to the Gentiles (Eph. 3:8–10). As the Magi were guided by the promises of Holy Scripture to find and worship the Christ Child with His mother in the house (Matt. 2:5–11), so does He call disciples from all nations by the preaching of His Word, to find and worship Him within His Church (Is. 60:3–6).
Reflection: The Gospel reading for the 2nd Sunday after Christmas is St. Luke 2: 40-52 when the 12 year old Jesus with His Mother and Step-father and their family and fellow villagers went to Jerusalem for the Feast of Passover. The Infancy Narrative in St. Luke is actually all of chapters 1 and 2. This lesson about the 12 year-old Jesus is the completion of the Narrative. This lesson is rife with foreshadowing, such as, the next time Jesus was in the Temple and Jerusalem quite publicly would lead to His Crucifixion; His Parents found Him in three days after being He was lost. Jesus returned to His Temple. The centerpiece of the Lesson is He is respectfully teaching the teachers of Israel, the official teachers of the Scriptures.
The German Reformation era artist Albrecht Durer has an interesting interpretation of the Gospel lesson. One's eye is immediately drawn to the center of the painting in which the four hands make a circle, except Jesus' hand is intersecting the circle. One of the tenets of the Liberal Protestant Church is dialogue, the goal of which is not truth according to the Bible and the Confessions, but changing one's mind to get it right, that is according to our ideology. Jesus cuts the Gordian Knot of endless dialogue. Remember the serpent initiated dialogue with Eve with the first question in the Bible, "Did God say…?" Actually, the devil does not actually want endless dialogue but enough to get your mind 'right' with him and rebel against God's Word. His Word alone is trustworthy. Jesus taught with authority and "… they were astonished at his teaching, for his word possessed authority. " Luke 4: 31-33
Luther in a sermon for Epiphany points out that the Magi finally found out where Christ was born because of the Bible and those same teachers in Jerusalem pointing out what is written in Micah. In our day, the clear star of God's inerrant Word, His Bible, is needed more than ever and Luther's preaching teaches us to trust His Word and not the circle of this and that. What we feel and think is not the authority for faith and salvation but His Word written in the Scriptures.
"…when the devil gets in the act and fabricates for us a false Christ, so that in our thoughts we picture Christ as we would like Him to be…for when a person abandons the Word and gropes about for Christ apart from the Word, he misses Christ and apprehends the devil…this is a key element especially to the devil. as he seeks ways to tear us away from the Word, and then, apart from the word, leads us to think our own thoughts. For then he knows that he has won and we have lost…if (the Magi) are to find the Child, they must follow the Word, which is the right star and beautiful sun pointing to Christ.
"…whoever willfully abandons the Word and follows his own thinking will soon lose Christ, because he regards him not as a gracious, merciful Lord but as a judge and flees from before him as from the devil. For that is the devil's bailiwick to represent Christ differently to people, terrify them, and by means of sin finally to plunge them into hell."

Just two weeks after presenting his latest menswear and Couture collections in Paris, designer Riccardo Tisci has announced he will be leaving Givenchy.
After a celebrated 12-year stint, Tisci's exit is reportedly "mutual and amicable" and effective immediately, reports WWD. Givenchy has so far not made any moves to name a successor.
Of the news, Tisci said, "I have very special affection for the House of Givenchy and its beautiful teams. I want to thank the LVMH Group and Monsieur Bernard Arnault for giving me the platform to express my creativity over the years. I now wish to focus on my personal interests and passions."
LVMH CEO Bernard Arnault also released a brief statement, "The chapter Riccardo Tisci has written with the house of Givenchy over the last 12 years represents an incredible vision to sustain its continuous success, and I would like to warmly thank him for his core contribution to the house's development."
Tisci's departure has fanned rumours that he will be moving to Versace.

It is sometimes possible, especially in the field of organic chemistry, to join small molecules together to form long chains. The term for the long chains is polymer and the process is called polymerization. Poly- means many, whereas -mer means unit. Many units are combined to form a new, single unit. There are two primary methods by which small chains can polymerize into larger chains -- addition and condensation polymerization.
Condensation Polymerization
Condensation polymerization refers to the joining together of smaller molecules through the loss of a small molecule, such as water, to form a larger molecule. One of the simplest examples is the reaction of glycine, or aminoacetic acid, HOOC-CH2-NH2, to form the dimer HOOC-CH2-NH-CO-CH2-NH2. Polymerization requires at least one double or two single reaction sites.
Addition Polymerization
Styrene, or C6H5-CH=CH2, can form even lengthy chains, via free radical polymerization. This involves the breakage of the double bond that allows the addition of another molecule of styrene. Repetition allows the addition of another, and yet another, styrene molecule. The process can be controlled to limit the number of additions.
Another addition polymerization involves carbocations. Double- or triple-bonded compounds interact with acids to form positively charged carbocations. These can combine with additional molecules to form lengthier carbocations capable of further repeating the process.

Lauren's Bio
My love for the ocean started when I went snorkeling for the first time, going underwater and seeing this whole new world open up was an incredible experience!
I discovered how much trash is in the ocean and how much damage we have done to our ocean!!
I made the decision to help clean up our mess and take steps to help the environment rather than harm it!
I live by the words:
'Be the change you wish to see in the world' (Mahatma Gandhi)
'I am one, but I am still one, I cannot do everything but I can do something.' (Helen Keller)
I try to be an example to people in taking steps to help the environment, and continue to remember that even the small change I am making is still a change.

The First "Official" Workout....in my kitchen...in my jammies!
So, although I was tempted to, but didn't, video part of my workout...in my kitchen....while wearing my pj's....in between prepping soup (s) and washing dishes.....the point being that there's no excuse to not to swing, if just for a few sets...a few minutes. The best part of swinging in my kitchen is that, in the middle of winter, I don't have to go out in that uninsulated garage gym and freeze my ass off, and the worst part is that I missed the music!
Warm up
40 2 hand swings w/8kg, 1 min. on, 1 min. rest x 5 set = 10 min.
Work sets
40 2 hand swings w/12kg, 1 min. on, 1 min. rest
10 R / 10 L, clean press w 8kg, 1 min. on, 1 min. rest
I alternated these last 2 sets x 5 = 20 min
Total workout 30 min.
Wow, it felt good, and I was swinging @ about 75-80% full power in my work sets! I definitely felt as if I could still swing longer than 1 minute, but I didn't want to push it, and I was surprised at how fast a minute rest went by! I can't wait for my next workout on Sunday. Everyother day until I get back on a regular schedule.
Still no snatching for at least a few more weeks, but swinging (especially 2 hand swings) will give me everything I need in terms of muscle tone and fat loss.
Life is good. Swinging KB's again is good!

I swing totally nude, except for my socks. Can't stand cold feet, especially when I'm exercising in the yard.
You'll be at full force in no time, and your discipline will pay off. It's just a blip on the radar.

Hey, if you think a hairy man-crack is funny, consider this: contraction of that crack is crucial to the proper launching of a kettlebell.
I know, it scares children, but they need to come to terms if they want to swing kettlebells and become productive members of society. They'll get over it.
Everything I write is for the benefit of humanity. I'm just glad to be here and support the cause.

Are you searching for new pedals for your setup? Here are three vital selections all guitar players should have on hand:
- Tuner Pedal – Whether you are at home playing on your own or on stage in front of a crowd, a good tuner pedal is a vital part of any pedal setup. With a pedal on hand, you will not have to worry about unplugging your guitar, plugging into another unit, and connecting back to your rig.
- Distortion Pedal – Take your solos to the next level with a good distortion pedal. You could be playing a hot jazz set or rocking with a garage band – having a decent distortion pedal on hand allows you to bring a distinct sound to your show. If you want a little bit of edge, a fuzz or overdrive pedal may work for you.
- Delay or Reverb Pedal – As a distinguished player, you know that playing notes is not the only way you can bring emotion to a song. A delay or reverb pedal is a smart investment, as these options allow you to widen your sound. Some of these pedals will even loop your sound, allowing you to use the pedal as an instrument itself.
Find amazing boutique guitar pedals when you shop online at DHR Guitar Experience. We are proud to provide you with selections from Earthquaker, JHS, and Electro-Harmonix.

Last night, the sports world was captivated by home run after home run that was blasted into the Cleveland sky off the bats of Vladimir Guerrero, Joc Pederson and Pete Alonso, among others. Even after the record-setting performances at baseball's All-Star festivities, fantasy football diehards are steadfastly preparing for upcoming drafts.
As I recently perused the PPR redraft ADP data from Fantasy Football Calculator, I noticed several players who could be home run values in 2019. These are players with big-time upside but are being selected much later in drafts, usually due to some perceived risk.
Lamar Jackson, QB BAL
Josh Allen, QB BUF
This pair of second-year quarterbacks are often compared to one another after a partial season of serious fantasy football success was fueled by their respective rushing ability. After he took the Ravens starting gig from veteran QB Joe Flacco, Jackson was the QB9 over the final seven weeks of the season despite a season-high of 204 passing yards. Allen was even more impressive, finishing as the QB1 from Week Twelve through the end of the regular season after returning from an injury. Both players fantasy points came largely from their rushing ability. The duo were the only quarterbacks last season to average more than six fantasy points per game on the ground and Allen's 9.26 rushing fantasy points per game were the third-highest of all-time from QBs scoring at least 200 points in a season.
All of that success on the ground, paired with the continued passing concerns for both players have their ADP held in check. Allen is currently the QB19 with Jackson close behind at QB20. These players have already shown they can put up fantasy points over a reasonable sample size and both the Bills and Ravens made strides in adding weapons for their young quarterbacks. Now the only question is can this pair show improvement in the passing game.
Damien Harris, RB NE
Fantasy players are often reluctant to rely on any rookies to help their fantasy team, and rightfully so. While these young players enter the league with hype and excitement, they usually fail to deliver, at least early in their career. The one exception might be at the running back position. The Patriots used a day two pick on former Alabama RB Damien Harris one year after spending a first-rounder on RB Sony Michel. While Michel carried the team into the playoffs and ultimately to a Super Bowl title, there are serious concerns about his durability amidst rumors of a degenerative knee issue. Enter Harris, who was the top running back recruit in his class and was able to earn an early role for the powerhouse Crimson Tide. Through his underrated career, Harris kept Raiders first-round RB Josh Jacobs on the sideline, along with many other talented recruits as he stacked up three straight 1,000 yard seasons. At the very least, Harris should be a key part of a Patriots backfield that should carry this offense as veteran QB Tom Brady starts to show signs of slowing down. At best, the concerns for Michel as warranted and Harris earns the starting role for one of the best teams in the league. Either way, at his current RB47 ADP, he is an easy choice and a massive steal.
DaeSean Hamilton, WR DEN
There are many relevant questions being asked about the Denver Broncos Offense heading into 2019. GM John Elway brought in a pair of new quarterbacks, the veteran Flacco and rookie Drew Lock. After years of relying on the receiver duo of Emmanuel Sanders and Demaryius Thomas, the Broncos are in a state of transition. Thomas was dealt away last season while Sanders is recovering from a late-season Achilles injury, leaving his status to begin the season in doubt. That leaves a pair of second-year WRs, Courtland Sutton and Hamilton, to serve as the focal point of the pass offense. While Sutton was the more-coveted fantasy asset and was drafted much earlier by the team, it was Hamilton who produced once Sanders went down. In the season's final month, without Sanders, Hamilton was the WR22 overall. Sutton was just the WR48 during that same span, yet he is still being drafted as the WR45 this season, compared to the value of Hamilton at WR57. With Flacco under center, it is understandable if this is simply an offense to avoid, but Hamilton can turn into a solid WR3 or flex option in 2019.
Mark Andrews, TE BAL
Back to the Ravens Offense…when Jackson took over as the starting quarterback last season, nearly every pass-catcher in the offense took a hit. WR John Brown, who was on his way to an impressive bounce-back season, caught just seven passes in Jackson's seven starts. The one player who clearly improved with Jackson in the field was Andrews, the rookie tight end from Oklahoma. While the theory that young quarterbacks rely heavily on their tight ends has been debunked, it was true in this case. During Jackson's time as the starter, Andrews was the TE16 and with Brown and veteran WR Michael Crabtree gone, Andrews and WR Willie Snead are the team's top returning receivers. Andrews is currently the TE23, the last tight end listed on Fantasy Football Calculator's ADP data.

The A-Team Architects
You know those mornings when you get up and think.. 'i'm gonna draw on the van!'
Well, that's precisely what happened to the weird folk at 'icecreamarchitecture' – and not only that, but they wanted help and, being the sociable kind of superguy that I am, we're working together and present 'BongoArt!'
BongoArt is a one time opportunity to draw on a van – legally (we're all about the legal..) and it's happening this saturday as part of our Hidden Lane operations (see the poster above).
Anyway, by now, you should know all about SuperFly but you may wondering who these 'icecream' crew are..? Well, my experience so far has been… imagine the A-Team were architects, not soldiers, and made up of 3 Mad Murdoch's… and you're nearly there. However, in the interest of balance, here's what they have to say:
"icecreamarchitecture is challenging the perceptions of the traditional architectural practice. We present fresh understanding and a client based design ethos to satisfy our pro-active 'ice cream van' attitude to consultation.
Our on street client sourcing approach encourages potential projects that otherwise would have overlooked the need for architectural design, and our education and practical experience affords us the confidence and capability to deliver beyond client expectations.
We sell architecture from the back of a van!"
So, there you are, come along on saturday and find out more… or just have fun in the sand. And if you'd like to take art in the SuperFly Standoff then drop me an email or visit the submissions page :)
A few thank you's.. firstly to Push Print (www.pushprint.net) who have donated a whole bunch of flyers, posters (above) and banners for the day – also big thanks to Peter at Glasgow Badges (www.glasgowbadges.co.uk) who are sorting us each out with shirts so you'll easily spot the icecreamarchitecture V's SuperFly crew. You'll find him helping out on the Hidden Lane Tea Room BBQ as well as selling his 'freaky badges' :)

Oxford Health NHS Foundation has been named as the most active workplace in Oxfordshire, after becoming a winner at the Oxfordshire Sports Awards.
On Friday 28 November, the work of the trust's Health, Wellbeing and Action Group was acknowledged when it was given the 'Active Workplace Award' as part of the Oxfordshire Sports Awards 2014, supported by BBC Oxford and Oxford Mail. The award was in recognition of innovation to improve the health and wellbeing of employees, particularly through increased physical activity.
A wealth of evidence shows that an active life is essential for physical and mental wellbeing and increased energy levels can boost workplace productivity and reduce sickness absence. The trust recognises that getting our workforce moving every day is essential and that if we want our staff to be active every day, physical activity needs to be made easy, fun and accessible.
Winning this award is a fantastic achievement and is a great way of recognising the hard work of the staff and their ongoing commitment to ensuring that staff health and wellbeing is embedded within our organisational culture.
One of the most recent workplace challenges was the popular trust-wide pedometer challenge in September which saw over 436 members of staff taking part (with a combined result of over 53,000,000steps taken during the month). Other initiatives supported throughout 2014 have included wellbeing days, exercise classes for, a bike salary sacrifice scheme and discounts with local bike stores, table tennis tables at two sites, a couch-to-5k running programme, health walks at our main sites and the development of a health and wellbeing champion network, which has over 100 members.
